The most important of these engineers was Isambard Kingdom Brunel, whose work in shipping, bridge-building, and railway construction, to name just three fields, both challenged and motivated his colleagues. He was the driving force behind a number of the hugely ambitious projects, some of which resulted in works which are still in use today. The son of an engineer, Brunel apprenticed with his father at an early age on the building of the Thames Tunnel. At the age of just twenty, he became engineer in charge of the project. This impressive plan to bore under the Thames twice suffered two major disasters when the river broke through into the tunnel when the second breach(决⼝)occurred in 1872, Brunel was seriously injured during rescue operation and further work was halted. While recovering from his injuries, Brunel entered a design competition for a new bridge over the Avon Gorge near Clifton. The original judge of the competition was Thomas Telford, a leading civil engineer of his day, who rejected all entries to the competition in favor of his own design. After considerable scandal, a second contest was held and Brunel's design was accepted. For reasons of funding, however, exacerbated(加剧) by social unrest in Bristol, the project was abandoned in 1843 with only the towers completed. After Brunel’s death, it was decided to begin work on it again, partly so that the bridge could form a fitting memorial to the great engineer. The entire structure was finally completed in 1864. Today, the well-known Clifton Suspension Bridge is a symbol of Bristol, just as the Opera House is of Sydney. Originally intended only for horse-drawn traffic, the bridge now bears over four million motor vehicles a year. 16.【题⼲】Brunel was an important airplane engineer in Britain during the Industrial Revolution. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 17.【题⼲】Brunel was involved less in railway construction than in other engineering fields. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 18.【题⼲】Brunel worked only on shipping, bridge-building and railway construction. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】B 【解析】 19.【题⼲】Brunel work was largely ignored by his colleagues. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】B 【解析】 20.【题⼲】Some projects Brunel contributed to are still in use today. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】A 【解析】 21.【题⼲】Brunel became an apprentice with his father when he was very young. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】A 【解析】 22.【题⼲】The Thames Tunnel project was more difficult than any previous projects undertaken in Britain. 【选项】 A.Right B.Wrong C.Not mentioned 【答案】C 【解析】 Geothermal(地热)Energy 1.Since heat naturally moves from hotter regions to cooler ones, the heat from the earth's center flows outwards towards the surface. In this way, it transfers to the next layer of rock. If the temperature is high enough, some of this rock melts and forms magma(岩浆). The magma ascends in its turn towards the earth's surface. It often remains well below the earth's surface, creating vast areas of hot rock. In such regions, there are deep cracks, which allow rainwater to descend underground. Some of the heated rainwater travels back up to the earth's surface where it will appear as a hot spring. However, if this ascending hot water reaches a layer of impermeable(不可渗透的)rock, it remains trapped, forming a geothermal reservoir. If geothermal reservoirs are close enough to the surface, they can be reached by drilling wells. Hot water and steam shoot up the wells naturally, and can be used to produce electricity in geothermal power plants. 2.A few geothermal power plants depend on dry-stem reservoirs which produce steam but little or no water. In these cases, the steam is piped up directly to provide the power to spin a turbine generator. The first geothermal power plant, constructed at Lardarello in Italy, was of this type, and is still producing electricity today. 3.Most currently operating geothermal power plants are either "flash" steam plants or binary(双重的)plants. Flash plants produce mainly hot water ranging in temperature from 300° to 700°Fahrenheit. This water is passed through one or two separators where released from the pressure of the underground reservoir, it "flashes" or boils into steam Again, the force of this steam provides the energy to spin the turbine and produce electricity. The geothermal water and steam are then reinjected directly back down into the earth to maintain the volume and pressure of the reservoir. Gradually they will be reheated and can then be used again. 4.A reservoir with temperatures below 300° Fahrenheit is not hot enough to flash steam but it can still be used to generate electricity in binary fluid. The steam from this is used to power the turbines. As in the flash steam plant, the geothermal water is recycled back into the reservoir. 23.【题⼲】Paragraph1_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】C 【解析】 24【题⼲】Paragraph2_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】A 【解析】 25【题⼲】Paragraph3_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】E 【解析】 26【题⼲】Paragraph4_____ 【选项】 A.Dry steam plants B.Binary plants C.Origin of geothermal energy D.Generation of electricity E.Flash steam plants F.Recyclable water and steam 【答案】F 【解析】 27.【题⼲】A geothermal reservoir is formed when hot water is trapped under _____. 【选项】 A.the energy to turn a turbine B.impermeable rock C.one or two separators D.turbine operator E.little or no water F.hot springs 【答案】B。

2016年职称英语《综合B》概括大意真题Tunguska Event1 A hundred years ago this week, a giganticexplosion ripped (撕裂) open the day y above a forest in western Siberia, leaving ascientific riddle that endures to this day.2 A dazzling light pierced the heavens,followed by a shock wave as strong as 1,000 atomic bombs. The explosionflattened 80 million trees across an area of 2,000 square kilometers. Thefireball was so great that, a day later, Londoners could read their newspapersunder the night sky. What caused the so-called Tunguska Event, named after thenearby Podkamennaya Tunguska river, still remains a mystery.3 Experts suspect it was a rock that, aftertraveling in space for millions of years, was destined to crash to Earth atexactly 7:17 a.m. on June 30, 1908. This possibility worries scientists.“Imagine an unspotted asteroid (小行星) hitting a significant chunk(块) of land ... and imagine if that area, unlike Tunguska, werepopulated,” the British science journal Nature commented recently.4 But no fragments of the “rock” have everbeen found. Finding such evidence would be important, for it would increase ourknowledge about the risk posed by dangerous Near Earth Objects (NEOs), sayItalian researchers Luca Gasperini, Enrico Bonatti and Giuseppe Longo. When thenext Tunguska NEO approaches, scientists will have to decide whether to try todeflect (使偏转) it or blowit up in space.5 However, several rival theories for theTunguska Event exist.Wolfgang Kundt, a professor at Germany's Bonn University,believes the Tunguska Event was caused by a massive escape of 10 million tonsof methane(甲烷)-rich gasfrom deep within earth's crust. Some people hold that the explosion was causedby an alien spaceship crash, or a black hole in the universe.23. Paragraph 224. Paragraph 325. Paragraph 426. Paragraph 5A. Competing ExplanationsB.

So he went toAustralia, stopping off in many countries beween. He also decided to writeabout the experience and produced a guide for other travelers making similarjourneys.In 1970, British airports were used by 32million people. In 2004, the figure was 216 million. In 2030, according togovernment forecasts, it will be around 500 million. It’s a growth driven bythe emergence of low cost airlines, offering access to al l parts of the worldfor less than £100.This has made a huge contribution to globalwarming. One return flight from Britain to the US produces the same carbondioxide (二氧化碳)as a year’smotoring (驾车). A returnflight to Australia equals the emissions (排放)of three average cars for a year. And the pollution is released at aheight where its effect on climate change is more than double that on theground.Mark Ellingham built his business onhelping people travel. Now he wants to help people stop – at least by air.He is calling for a £100 green tax on allflights to Europe and Africa, and £250 on flights to the rest of the world. Healso wants investment to create a low-carbon economy, as well as a halt to airportexpansion.Mark Ellingham’s commitment is importantbecaus e his readers aren’t just the sort of young and adventurous people whowould happily jump on a plane to spend a weekend exploring a foreign culture.They are also the sort of people who say they care about the environment. It'sa debate that splits people down the middle.The tourist industry has responded byoffering offsetting (补偿) schemes. A small increase in the price of a ticket is usedtoplant trees.But critics say that it is not enough tojust be carbon neutral. We should be actively cutting back on puttinggreenhouse gases into the atmosphere. And for the average person, making aplane journey will be his or her largest contribution to global warming. It maybe good to repair the damage we do. But surely it is better not to do the damagein the first place.16. Mark Ellingham spent quite a few days in China onhis way to Australia 25 years ago.A.

When he was a college student, doctors discovered that he had a rare disease. This disease causes a gradual disintegration(分解)of the nerve cells in the brain cells that regulate voluntary muscle activity. Death almost always occurs within two or three years.Today Stephen Hawking cannot walk or speak. He cannot move his arms or his head. He cannot taste or smell anything. And yet this man is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position held by the famous scientist Isaac Newton in 1669.Hawking is often described as the greatest scientist since Albert Einstein, but to the world outside science, he is also known as the man who made scientific theory understandable. His book, A Brief History of Time, has sold over eight million copies.He says that since he does not have to think about his body or do any of the things other men have to worry about, such as washing the car or working in the yard, he can dedicate all of his time to thinking. This puts him in the perfect position to find the answer to the question that he has dedicated his life to. His question is: Is there a complete theory of the universe and everything in it?Despite his tremendous physical disabilities, he has already made some very important discoveries about the origin of the universe, how the universe holds together, and how it will probably end. He has also been able to explain the secrets of “black hole s” in space. Now he is looking for a set of rules that everything in our universe must obey. He calls it the Theory of Everything. He thinks that someone will have found the answer within the next 20 years.If Stephen Hawking is able to find his Theory of Everything, he will have given the world the opportunity to understand things that will change the whole nature of science and probably also the way we live.16.【题干】Stephen Hawking will be 50 years old by 2017.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】B【解析】If Stephen Hawking lives until the year 2017, he will have lived more than 50 years longer than his doctors expected.17.【题干】Stephen Hawking suffers from a rare brain disease.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A18.【题干】Stephen Hawking is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A19.【题干】A Brief History of Time is very difficult for students to understand.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】B20.【题干】Stephen Hawking has much time to think because he doesn't have to work.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A21.【题干】Stephen Hawking has spent around ten years explaining the secrets ofA.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】C22.【题干】The Theory of Everything is about the rules that everything in the universe follows.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned【答案】A三、概括大意与完成句子Geothermal(地热)Energy1 Since heat naturally moves from hotter regions to cooler ones, the heat from the earth's center flows outwards towards the surface.

However, windows are not something people typically associate with being a cutting edge technology. Researchers are now working on new technologies that enable a window to quickly change from clear to dark and anywhere in between easily.2."It took us a long time to figure out what a window really is," says ClaesGranqvist. He's a professor of solid-state physics at Uppsala University in Sweden. "It's contact with the outside world. You have to have visual contact with the surrounding world to feel well." So, windows and natural light are important for improving the way people feel when they're stuck indoors.3.Yet, windows are the weak link in a building when it comes to energy and temperature control. In the winter, cold air leaks in. When it's hot and sunny, sunlight streams in. All of this sunlight carries lots of heat and energy. And all of this extra heat forces people to turn on their air conditioners. Producing cold air, which can feel so refreshing(使人清新的), actually suck up enormous amounts of electricity in buildings around the world.4.Windows have been a major focus of energy research for a long time. Over the years, scientists have come up with a variety of strategies for coating, glazing(用玻璃覆盖), and layering windows to make them more energy efficient. Smart windows go a step further. They use some chromogenic(发色的)technologies involving changes of color.5.Electrochromic(电致色的) windows use electricity to change color. For example, a sheet of glass coated with thin layers of tungsten oxide(氧化钨)works a bit like a battery. Tungsten oxide is clear when an electric charge is applied and dark when the charge is removed, that is, when the amount of voltage(电压)is decreased, the window darkens until it's completely dark after allelectricity is taken away. So applying a voltage determines whether the window looks clear or dark.6.One important feature that makes a smart window so smart is that it has a sort of "memory". All it takes is a small shock of voltage to turn the window from one state to the other. Then, it stays that way. Transitions take from 10 seconds to a few minutes, depending on the size of the window. The development of smart windows could mean that massive air conditioning systems may no longer need. "In the future," Granqvist says, "our buildings may look different."31.【题干】Which of the following values of windows is NOT mentioned?A.They let light in to brighten the house.B.They let light in to heat the house.C.They let us have visual contact with the surrounding world.D.They let us think about the outside world.【答案】D32.【题干】The expression "when it comes to" in Paragraph 3 is used to_____.A.signal the arrival of a guest.B.indicate the recovery of consciousness.C.show our understanding of something.D.introduce a new aspect of a topic.【答案】D33.【题干】According to Paragraph 4, smart windows are the windows that_____.A.arecosted.B.are glazed.C.have several layers.D.can change color.【答案】D34.【题干】Which paragraph gives an account of the way electrochromic windows changing?A.Paragraph 5.B.Paragraph 3.C.Paragraph 4.D.Paragraph 6.【答案】A35.【题干】A smart windows is smart mainly because_____.A.it can change its size.B.it can change its structure.C.it can change the voltage of electricity.D.it has a sort of memory.【答案】DSports Star Yao MingIf Yao Ming is not the biggest sports star in the world, he is almost certainly the tallest. At 2.26m, he is the tallest player in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in the Games.But what really stands out about the giant center is his celebrity(名气). Few, if any, Chinese athletes are as well-known as Yao around the world. People across the globe are fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess(杰出的才能)also for being a symbol of international commerce.When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No.1 pick in the 2002 NBA draft(选抜),he was the first international player ever to be selected first. His assets on the court are clear enough—no NBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he is a handful(难对付的人)for opponents on either end of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization is his role as a global citizen and as a bridge to millions of potential basketball fans in China.When it was announced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possibly the Olympics with a stress fracture(骨折)in his left foot, a collective shudder(震动)spread across China. After considerable debate and discussion, Yao opted to get his foot surgically treated in an operation that placed several tiny screws across the bone, to offer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success, and though the estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to prepare with Team China, Yao has vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.Yao wrapped up a 10-day trip to China, where he underwent a series of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate his recovery process Western experts are generally skeptical of TCM's benefits although new research from the University of Rochester suggests that a certain compound derived from shellfish may indeed stimulate bone repair."There is no reason to dismiss TCM," Yao told a press conference in Beijing." It's been used in our country for thousands of years. I don't think that it's short on science."36.【题干】The word "towering" in Paragraph 1 means_____rge.B.fat.C.tall.D.great.【答案】C37.【题干】Opponents find it very difficult to control Yao Ming because of his_____【选项】A.mobility.B.assault.C.defense.D.celebrity.【答案】A38.【题干】Yao Ming had to undergo a series of TCM treatments because_____A.his right foot had been hurting.B.he wanted to make a more rapid recovery.C.the surgical operation had been a failure.D.he couldn't afford all the medical expenses.【答案】B39.【题干】Which statement about Yao Ming is NOT true?A.He missed the Athens Olympics.B.He is an NBA player.C.He fractured his left foot.D.He is an international figure.【答案】A40.【题干】In general, the Western experts' attitude towards TCM is_____.A.indifferent.B.positive.C.negative.D.doubtful.【答案】DCan you hear This?When something creates a sound wave in a room or an auditorium, listeners hear the sound wave directly from the source. They also hear the reflections as the sound bounces off the walls, floor, and ceiling. These are called the reflected wave or reverberant(反射的)sound, which can be heard even after the sound is no longer coming from the source.The reverberation time of an auditorium is determined by the volume or interior size of the auditorium. It is also determined by how well or how poorly the walls, ceiling, floor, and contents of the room (including the people) absorb sound. There is no ideal reverberation time. Because each use of an auditorium calls for different reverberation. Speech needs to be understood clearly: therefore rooms used for talking must have a short reverberation time. The full-sound performance of music such as Wagner operas or Mahler symphonies should have a long reverberation time. The light, rapid musical passages of Bach or Mozart need a reverberation time somewhere between.Acoustic problems often are caused by poor auditorium design. Smooth, curved reflecting surfaces create large reflections. Parallel(平行的)walls reflect sound back and forth, creating a rapid, repetitive pulsing effect. Large pillars(柱)and corners can cause acoustic shadows as the sound waves try to pass around the object. Some of these problems can be solved by using absorbers and reflectors to change the reverberation time of a room. For example, hanging large reflectors, called clouds, over the performers will allow some sound frequencies to reflect and others to pass to achieve a pleasing mixture of sound.41.【题干】This passage is mainly about_____A.sound waves and their effects.B.the types of music orchestras play.C.walls of an auditorium.D.the design of an auditorium.【答案】D42.【题干】Wagner operas and Mahler symphonies with full-sound effect have_____A.a short reverberation time.B.an intermediate reverberation time.C.no reverberation time.D.a long reverberation time.【答案】D43.【题干】This passage suggests that a good auditorium should_____A.get rid of all reflections.B.nothave absorbers.C.achieve a pleasing mixture of sound.D.have smooth surfaces.【答案】D44.【题干】Large pillars and corners may_____A.make sound rich and full.B.be cures for sound problems.C.be sources of sound problems.D.function as effectively as clouds.【答案】C45.【题干】The word "acoustic" in the last paragraph has something to do with_____A.performance.B.sound.C.audience.D.weather.【答案】B五、补全短文What Is a Dream?For centuries, people have wondered about the strange things that they dream about. Some psychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning. Others, however, think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact, many experts believe that dreams can tell us about a person's mind and emotions.Before modern times, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. _____(46)The Austrian psychologist, Sigmund Freud, was probably the first person to study dreams scientifically. In his famous book, The interpretation of Dreams (1900), Freud wrote that dreams are an expression of a person's wishes. He believed that dreams allow people to express thefeelings, thoughts, and fears that they are afraid to express in real life.The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung was once a student of Freud's. Jung, however, had a different idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was to communicate a message to the dreamer._____(47)For example, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high an opinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroes may learn that they think too little of themselves.Modern-day psychologists continue to develop theories about dreams. For example, psychologist William Domhoff from the University of California, Santa Cruz, believes that dreams are tightly linked to a person's daily life, thoughts, and behavior. _____(48)Domhoff believes that there is a connection between dreams and age. His research shows that children do not dream as much as adults. According to Domhoff, dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop.He has also found a link between dreams and gender. His studies show that the dreams of men and women are different. _____(49)This is not true of women's dreams. Domhoff found this gender difference in the dreams of people from 11 cultures around the world, including both modern and traditional ones.Can dreams help us understand ourselves? Psychologists continue to try to answer this question in different ways._____(50)The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that some terrible event will actually take place. It's important to remember that the world of dreams is not the real world.【选项】A.Forexample, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.46.【题干】_____【答案】E47.【题干】_____【答案】F48.【题干】_____【答案】C49.【题干】_____【答案】A50.【题干】_____【答案】D六、完形填空Warmer climate will bake tropical bugsGlobal warming could cook tropical insects, with unpredictable knock-on effects, sayresearchers who warn that rising temperatures also_____(51)tropical frogs and lizards(蜥蜴).Temperatures are_____(52)to increase much faster in temperate(温和的)and polar(极地的)regions than in the tropics. But no-one had looked at how warming would affect insects and other cold-blooded animals_____(53)had evolved in tropical regions with little temperature variation.Curtis Deutsch at the University of California at Los Angeles and colleagues analysed data_____(54)insect survival and reproduction for 38 species in different ecosystems(生态系统), and then estimated how these values would_____(55)with predictions of climate change for the 21st century.The team found that the reproductive_____(56)of tropical insects tends to peak very close to the temperatures where they normally live, but_____(57)sharply at higher temperatures. This means that cranking up(提高)the heat only a small amount can exert a heavy toll, leaving insects unable to reproduce_____(58)enough to keep up their numbers.Temperate insects reproduce well over a broader range, and do not live as_____(59)to their thermal(热的)limit, so they can reproduce successfully when their climate warms more than in the tropics."Tropical insects do very well in a narrow band of temperatures, but move them above that_____(60)and they die," says team member Josh Tewksbury of the University of Washington in Seattle.The heart of the_____(61)is temperature tolerance. Temperate-zone insects have evolved to survive the much broader temperature swings of seasonal climates, than have their tropical relatives.The_____(62)appears worse for animals that live in hot stable climate of the lower levels of tropical forests. Lizards in clear areas can find shade to cool down, but those living in the forest are already in the_____(63), and there's not much they can do to get cooler, Deutsch says.Too few tropical insects have been studied so far to_____(64)if any particular group will be particularly hard-hit, says Tewksbury. Insects play important_____(65)in forest ecology(生态学).The team are now starting to evaluate how temperature affects ecological interactions of insects with other species, including crops such as African corn.51.【题干】_____ threaten52.【题干】_____ expected53.【题干】_____ that54.【题干】_____ on55.【题干】_____ change56.【题干】_____ rate57.【题干】_____ drops58.【题干】_____ fast59.【题干】_____ close60.【题干】_____ range61.【题干】_____ problem62.【题干】_____ effect63.【题干】_____ shade64.【题干】_____ tell65.【题干】_____ roles。

The Theory of EverythingIf Stephen Hawking lives until the year 2017, he will have lived more than 50 years longer than his doctors expected. When he was a college student, doctors discovered that he had a rare disease. This disease causes a gradual disintegration(分解)of the nerve cells in the brain cells that regulate voluntary muscle activity. Death almost always occurs within two or threeyears.Today Stephen Hawking cannot walk or speak. He cannot move his arms or his head. He cannot taste or smell anything. And yet this man is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position held by the famous scientist Isaac Newton in 1669.Hawking is often described as the greatest scientist since Albert Einstein, but to the world outside science, he is also known as the man who made scientific theory understandable. His book, A Brief History of Time, has soldover eight million copies.He says that since he does not have to think about his body or do any ofthe things other men have to worry about, such as washing the car or working in the yard, he can dedicate all of his time to thinking. This puts him in the perfect position to find the answer to the question that he has dedicated his life to. His question is: Is there a complete theory of the universe andeverything in it?Despite his tremendous physical disabilities, he has already made some very important discoveries about the origin of the universe, how the universe holds together, and how it will probably end. He has also been able to explain thesecrets of “black holes” in space. Now he is looking for a set ofrules that everything in our universe must obey. He calls it the Theory ofEverything. He thinks that someone will have found the answer within the next20 years.If Stephen Hawking is able to find his Theory of Everything, he will have given the world the opportunity to understand things that will change the whole nature of science and probably also the way we live.16.Stephen Hawking will be 50 years old by 2017.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned17.Stephen Hawking suffers from a rare brain disease.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned18.Stephen Hawking is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned19.A Brief History of Time is very difficult for students to understand.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned20.Stephen Hawking has much time to think because he doesn't have to work.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned21.Stephen Hawking has spent around ten years explaining the secrets ofA.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned22.The Theory of Everything is about the rules that everything in theuniverse follows.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned第3部分:概括大意与完成句子(第23~30题,每题1分,共8分)暂无下面的短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2~5 段每段选择1个最佳标题;(2)第27~30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。

2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案
2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇12016职称英语理工类A级考试真题及答案Part I Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are five passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage 1Only very distant relatives score enough “points” to become professional worsted tennis players. There is a nice blend of tomboy and prude in some of today’s good ones. Many of the precocious young titans of the courts have to fight jitters; and in the case of the junior that comes along only once a decade or so, the fight grows veritable when the captain sticks out an unbald head in a kind of harness some fifty-year-old lady put out of so-called clear scraps. (10)The fight against jitter moves in its small phases. At first, the junior finds it relatively easy to bulldoze his way through a local tournament. This gives a boost for bigger game, national and even international tournaments. The real fight is knowing how to hit on a ball on the court. This is the hard one for sexagenarian dotards to analyze—not only because the shot lingers but also because the precise moment for taking the hit comes only once every five seconds, so that knowing where the hit is going to be is batting .200; but knowing the moment is a beserk fight against time, tide and terror. Even some of the worsted pros have been known to chug at the juice to dull the squealing butterflies in their stomach. Other musclemen chug beer or radiators.If a Worst has a “good” b ad day when yards of tennis can go wham, bam, thank you ma’am, with hardly a misdeed loophole, the which what what mucks them up is more likely to come from lack of wind, since their little guts are oiled up like a used motorcycle chain. Caloric starvation due to worry may also be a cause, since as soon as that dirty laundry has gotten hung out to dry, the jitterer feels tired—such is the fight against jitter. When the national champion, a 25-year-old who can top the kiddies aaseily 6-4, 6-1 or make worse a French Korean, despite the wind breaking into three-fourths gales, gets up in themorning to meet some electron-charged fourteen-year-old, it is jitter time again.21. A fast horse may win a __________ easily.A. junior tennis matchB. small tennis gameC. game between prosD. national tennis match【答案】B22. The “moment” in the passage refers to ___________.A. the moment to take the hit on the ballB. the moment to remember the hit on the ballC. the moment to enjoy the hit on the ballD. the moment to watch the hit on the ball【答案】A23. Caloric starvation due to worry may cause a worsted pro to ___________.A. drink beerB. dul the squealing butterflies in stomachC. lug at the juiceD. feel tired【答案】D24.

2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案
2016职称英语理工类a级考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1My Big Sister's Super Hard TestMy big sister Monica just took a really hard test called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering Class A. She had to study for it for like a whole year! It was all in English which is not even our first language. I'm only 8 years old but I tried to help her prepare as much as I could.First, she had to read all these long, boring articles and books about science and technology topics. There were chapters on mechanical design, information technology, environmental studies, and more. I didn't understand most of it but I let her quiz me on the vocabulary words. Words like "algorithm", "dimensional", "sustainable", and "mechanism." Those were hard!Then she had to practice different kinds of questions they could ask on the test. Like summarizing the main points of a passage, or answering open-ended questions analyzing the information. There were fill-in-the-blank grammar sections toowhich seemed really nitpicky. My favorite part was when she would transcribe a audio recording because I got to listen to the scientists and engineers talking in their funny accents.A few weeks before the test, Monica started doing full practice tests to get ready. They looked so long and exhausting! The listening section alone had around 25 questions and the reading had 40-50 questions, not to mention the writing section where she had to write a whole essay from scratch. I would get so sleepy and bored sitting next to her while she worked through them.Finally, the big day came and Monica went to take the Professional Title test. It lasted over 3 hours! When she came home, she looked beat. I asked how it went and she made a crooked smile and said "I'm not sure, but I gave it my best shot."I gave her a big hug because she worked so hard to get ready.A couple months later, the scores came out online. Monica passed We had a little celebration with cake and sparklers. I was so proud of my big sis. She said scoring highly on this test is really important for getting a higher professional title and pay level as an engineer in China. It was a lot of work but worth it in the end.Now I'll share some of the actual test questions and answers from Monica's test materials so you can see how hard it was:Listening ComprehensionQuestion 1: What is the main purpose of the speaker's experiment?A) To determine the optimal conditions for plant growthB) To study the effects of climate change on agricultureC) To analyze the impact of pesticides on crop yieldsD) To investigate new irrigation techniquesQuestion 2: According to the speaker, which of the following is a disadvantage of the proposed design?A) It is too expensive to implement.B) It requires a large amount of energy.C) It produces excessive noise pollution.D) It has a negative environmental impact.Reading ComprehensionPassage 1 was about the development of renewable energy sources. It described the potential benefits and challenges of solar, wind, and hydroelectric power.Question 1: According to the passage, which of the following is a major advantage of solar energy?A) It produces no greenhouse gas emissions.B) The technology is relatively inexpensive.C) Solar panels require little maintenance.D) It can be implemented in any geographic location.Question 2: The author mentions which of the following as a disadvantage of wind power?A) Wind turbines are unsightly.B) The wind is an intermittent energy source.C) Wind farms require large amounts of land.D) Both B and CTranslationDirections: Translate the following passage from English to Chinese."As the global population continues to rise, putting strain on the world's resources, there is an urgent need to transition to more sustainable practices across all sectors. In manufacturing, adopting a circular economy model can significantly reduce material waste and environmental impact. The basic principle is to design products for longevity, reuse, and recycling rather than disposability. This entails..."WritingPrompt: Advances in artificial intelligence and robotics will have a major impact on the future job market and economy. Discuss some of the potential effects, both positive and negative, that increased automation may have. What steps should societies take to prepare for these changes? Develop your position with relevant reasons and examples.Those are just a few examples, but as you can see the test covered all kinds of science, technology, and engineering topics at a pretty high level. My poor sister worked so hard to master all that advanced material in English! I'm just glad it's over and she passed. Maybe in 10 more years when I'm an adult, I'll have to take it too. But for now, I'll leave the Professional Title English Tests to my big sis!篇2The 2016 Professional Test was Really Hard!Hi everyone! My name is Timmy and I'm 8 years old. Last year, my dad had to take a really difficult English test for his job as an engineer. It was called the 2016 Professional English Test for Workers in Science and Engineering Fields (Level A). I watched him study a ton for it and he let me look at some of the questions afterward. They were super tricky! Let me tell you all about it.There was a listening section where they played conversations and talks in English and you had to answer multiple choice questions. One conversation was between two co-workers discussing a project timeline. The man said "We're already behind schedule on the Bennett project due to those supplier delays." The woman replied "Yes, and our client is getting antsy about the lack of progress." Then it asked what the "antsy" meant and I remembered my dad saying it means nervous or impatient. Tricky vocabulary words like that were all over the listening section!For the reading section, there were long technical passages about things like engineering processes, scientific research, andmanufacturing methods. You really had to concentrate and use all your brain power. I remember one passage was about a new type of renewable energy technology using biomass sources. It explained the chemical processes involved in great detail. The questions asked very specific things about the steps described in the passage. My dad spent a lot of time re-reading those dense passages very carefully.Then there was an awesome section all about technical writing and communication skills. It tested things like how to write clear instructions, describe a technical process, or synthesize information from multiple sources into one report. One question gave a bunch of details about a product design and you had to organize the details into a proper introduction, body paragraphs, and conclusion. Another question made you identify the weakness in someone's proposal letter. My personal favorite part!But I think my dad struggled the most with the speaking section. He had to give all his spoken responses in a recording booth with a time limit. One question made him explain a complex scientific concept, like nuclear fusion or something. Another made him propose a solution to a hypothetical technical problem. And he really had to show off his English speaking skillsby using advanced vocabulary, proper grammar, good organization, and clear pronunciation.There was also a writing section where he had to type out things like design specifications, progress reports, proposals, and technical definitions. It was crazy how much writing they expected! One of the essays asked him to recommend whether a company should invest in a new eco-friendly manufacturing process based on weighing the pros and cons. I remember he kept revising and revising his essays to make them perfect.Overall, the whole test seemed incredibly challenging with all the different sections and skills it covered. My dad had to understand complex technical content, speak and write at a professional level, and demonstrate communication abilities - all in his second language of English! I was so proud of him for passing. He said it was one of the most mentally exhausting experiences of his life.I'm glad I'm just a kid and don't have to worry about taking huge tests like that for many more years. For now, I'll stick to my spelling and times tables tests at school! But it was really interesting to learn about the types of challenges that working adults in scientific and engineering fields face. Major props to anyone who can pass that Professional English beast of an exam.I have a whole new appreciation for what my dad does at his job. Let me know if you've ever had to take a crazy difficult test like that before!篇3The 2016 Professional English Test (Level A) for Science and EngineeringHello everyone! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. Our teacher Mr. Johnson told us we would be taking a very important test today called the Professional English Test for Science and Engineering. He said it's a test that real engineers and scientists have to take to show they can speak and understand English well.I was a little nervous at first, but then Mr. Johnson reminded us that even though it's a grown-up test, he made it just for us kids. Doesn't that sound fun? Let me tell you all about it!Reading ComprehensionThe first part was reading comprehension. We had to read a few passages and answer questions about them. The first passage was about how airplanes fly. It used some big words like "aerodynamics" and "lift" but Mr. Johnson helped us understand what they meant.One of the questions was: "What causes the wing of an airplane to generate lift?" I remembered from the passage that it's because the wing is tilted just a little bit, so the air flows faster over the top. The faster air moves, the lower the pressure, which pushes the wing up. I got that one right!Another passage was about solids, liquids and gases. It explained how molecules in solids are packed tightly together, while in liquids they can slide around more. And in gases, the molecules just zip around everywhere! The question asked which state has molecules that are most disorganized. I put gases because that's what the passage said.Listening ComprehensionNext was the listening part. Mr. Johnson played some audio clips and we had to answer questions after each one. The first clip was about the life cycle of butterflies. It described how they start as tiny eggs, then become caterpillars who eat a lot. After that, they weave a little cocoon and go through "metamorphosis" - that's a fancy word for the amazing changes they undergo to become beautiful butterflies!One question was: "What do caterpillars do before metamorphosis?" I marked down that they spin a cocoon, because that's what I heard in the audio. Another asked what thefour stages of the cycle are. I wrote: egg, caterpillar, cocoon, butterfly. Nailed it!The next audio clip was about the planet Mars. It covered fun facts like Mars being the fourth planet from the sun, and that it's often called the Red Planet because of its rusty color. A question asked why Mars looks red. The clip explained it's due to iron minerals in the soil - when they get exposed to oxygen, they oxidize or rust, just like an old nail here on Earth.Writing TestThen篇4The 2016 Big Important English Test for Science Smart PeopleHi there! My name is Timmy and I'm going to tell you all about this really hard English test I had to take last year. It was called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering Subjects - Level A. That's a really long name! I'll just call it the Big Science English Test.The test was super difficult because it was made forgrown-ups who are scientists and engineers and know all aboutcomplicated science and math things. But my parents really wanted me to take it anyway because they said it would be good practice for when I'm older.So early one Saturday morning, I had to go to the testing center downtown. It was in this big building with lots of classrooms. There were so many other kids and grown-ups there too, all looking really nervous. I felt a little scared, but tried to stay brave.When it was time to start, a lady came in and handed out the test booklets. Mine was so thick! It had reading passages, listening sections, writing tasks, and all sorts of stuff. Way more than we normal get for tests at school. The lady explained all the rules really slowly and clearly so everyone understood. Then she set her timer and said "You may begin!"The first part was reading comprehension. I had to read these long, long passages that talked about science topics like physics, chemistry, biology, and computer stuff. The passages used such big fancy words that I'd never heard before. I had to keep looking them up in the dictionary. After reading each passage, there were questions about the main ideas, details, vocabulary, and making inferences. Those were so hard! I had to read the passages like three or four times.Next up was the listening section. This part was a little easier for me because I just had to listen篇5My 2016 Science and English Test AdventureHi friends! Today I want to tell you all about the big important test I took last year called the Professional English Test for Science and Engineering. It was a level A test, which means it was really hard! But I studied super duper hard and I think I did a pretty good job. Let me walk you through some of the questions I had to answer.Reading ComprehensionThe first part was all about reading. They gave me a long science-y passage and asked me bunches of questions about what I read. One question was like this:Passage: ...The hydraulic system transfers force from one point to another via an incompressible fluid...Question: Which of the following is true about the fluid in a hydraulic system?A) It cannot be compressedB) It is a gasC) It transfers energy through motionD) It is made of solidsWell I knew the answer had to be A because the passage said the fluid cannot be compressed, which means it's incompressible! Wasn't that a tricky one?Another question asked me to identify the main idea of the whole passage. That was pretty hard because the passage was super long and had all these big words I didn't know. But I read it very carefully and picked the answer that seemed to sum up what the main point was.WritingAfter the reading part, I had to do some writing. They asked me to pick one of two topics and write a short essay responding to the prompt. One of the prompts was:"Many scientific advancements over the past century have dramatically improved our quality of life. However, some have also caused negative impacts on the environment and human health. Describe one positive and one negative impact of a major scientific advancement and discuss whether you believe its benefits outweigh its costs."Woah, that's a really big question for a little kid like me! But I tried my best. I wrote about how the invention of plastic has helped us have cheap packaging and containers for food and toys. But I also said plastic pollution is really bad for the environment and animals like sea turtles.At the end, I said I think the benefits probably still outweigh the costs because plastic makes so many useful things affordable for everyone. But we need to work really hard on reducing the plastic waste too. I don't know if my essay was perfect, but I felt okay about my answer!ListeningAnother section tested my listening skills. They played an audio recording all about a science topic and asked me comprehension questions. One question went something like this:Recording: "...The xylem tissue transports water and nutrients upwards from the roots, while the phloem distributes food and sugars produced by photosynthesis down to the roots and rest of the plant..."Question: According to the recording, what role does the phloem tissue play in plant biology?A) It carries water upwardsB) It transports photosynthesis productsC) It absorbs nutrients from the soilD) It produces oxygenI chose B because the recording clearly said the phloem distributes the sugars made by photosynthesis throughout the plant. I was pretty confident I got that one correct!SpeakingProbably the hardest part was the speaking section. I had to look at a picture and describe what I saw using scientific vocabulary. Then I had to answer some questions the test grader asked me based on the picture.The picture showed some kids doing an experiment with a glass of water, food coloring, and a celery stalk. The questions were things like "What do you think is the purpose of this experiment?" and "What process is being demonstrated here?"I tried to explain that the colored water was traveling up through the celery stalk because of capillary action and the vascular tissue in the plant stem. I had just learned about that inscience class, so I worked really hard to remember all the right terms!The grader also asked me to pretend I was giving instructions to someone on how to actually do this celery experiment. I walked through adding the food coloring to the water, trimming the celery bottom, placing it in the cup, and waiting to observe how the colored water moves up the stem. Phew, that part was tricky!Overall ThoughtsWell, that's a taste of what the big level A science and English test was like for me! There were writing sections, reading sections, listening comprehension, speaking prompts - it covered all the English skills!Some parts were pretty hard and had questions that made me really think. But other parts let me show off what I already knew about science topics we had covered in school. I spent a lot of time preparing by studying science vocabulary, reading science articles, and practicing my English skills.In the end, I felt like I gave it my best effort. The test was definitely challenging, but also kind of fun to take on such a big challenge. If you're going to take the Professional English Testtoo, just make sure you study really hard beforehand. And don't be nervous - just do your best!Okay friends, that's my full report on my big science and English testing adventure. Let me know if you have any other questions! Time for me to go learn about another cool science topic...篇6My Big Sister's Hard TestMy big sister Anna is really smart. She's in university studying to be an engineer. This year she had to take a super hard test called the 2016 Professional Title English Test for Science and Engineering. It's a big important test she needs to pass to get a special title and job one day. I watched her study really hard for weeks!The test had lots of different sections - reading, writing, listening, translation, and more. Anna showed me some of the questions after and they looked so tricky! I'll share some with you:Reading ComprehensionThere were some long readings about science and technology topics. One was about 3D printing. The questions asked stuff like:What are the main advantages of 3D printing?A) Cheaper production costsB) Faster manufacturing timeC) More design flexibilityD) All of the aboveThe answer is D) All of the above. 3D printing lets you make lots of different shapes quickly and for less money than traditional manufacturing. Pretty cool!Another passage was about self-driving cars. It asked:Which of the following is NOT a key sensor used inself-driving cars?A) RadarB) CamerasC) LidarD) SpeedometerI didn't know this one, but Anna said the answer is D) Speedometer. The other choices are all sensors that help the car "see" its surroundings.WritingFor the writing section, Anna had to write a long essay about some scientific topic. One prompt asked her to discuss the pros and cons of nuclear power and give her opinion. She had to organize her ideas, provide examples, and use good grammar and vocabulary. Writing a whole essay in another language sounds super hard!ListeningThe listening part had lectures and conversations about science and engineering topics. Then there were questions testing if you understood the main ideas and details.One conversation was between two students talking about their engineering lab assignment. It asked:What was a main challenge the students faced with their project?A) Managing their timeB) Gathering dataC) Communicating with teammatesD) Identifying the right materialsAnna said the right answer was C) Communicating with teammates. The students said it was hard to collaborate smoothly.TranslationOh boy, this section was crazy! Anna had to translate sentences from English to Chinese and vice versa. The sentences used really technical scientific vocabulary.Like this one from English to Chinese:"The reactor coolant pumps circulate pressurized water through the nuclear reactor core."And this one from Chinese to English:"透射电子显微镜使用加速的电子射线来形成高分辨率图像。

This disease causes a gradual disintegration(分解)of thenerve cells in the brain cells that regulate voluntary muscle activity. Death almost always occurs within two or three years.Today Stephen Hawking cannot walk or speak. He cannot move his arms or his head. He cannot taste or smell anything. And yet this man is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University, a position held by the famous scientist Isaac Newton in 1669.Hawking is often described as the greatest scientist since Albert Einstein, but to the world outside science, he is also known as the man who made scientific theory understandable. His book, A Brief History of Time, has sold over eight million copies.He says that since he does not have to think about his body or do any of the things other men have to worry about, such as washing the car or working in the yard, he can dedicate all of his time to thinking. This puts him in the perfect position to find the answer to the question that he has dedicated his life to. His question is: Is there a complete theory of the universe and everything in it?Despite his tremendous physical disabilities, he has already made some very important discoveries about the origin of the universe, how the universe holds together, and how it will probably end. He has also been able to explain the secrets of“black holes”in space. Now he is looking for a set of rules that everything in our universe must obey. He calls it the Theory of Everything. He thinks that someone will have found the answer within the next 20 years.If Stephen Hawking is able to find his Theory of Everything, he will have given the world the opportunity to understand things that will change the whole nature of science and probably also the way we live.16.Stephen Hawking will be 50 years old by 2017.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:BIf Stephen Hawking lives until the year 2017, he will have lived more than 50 years longer than his doctors expected.17.Stephen Hawking suffers from a rare brain disease.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:A18.Stephen Hawking is Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge University.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:A19.A Brief History of Time is very difficult for students to understand.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:B20.Stephen Hawking has much time to think because he doesn't have to work.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:A21.Stephen Hawking has spent around ten years explaining the secrets ofA.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:C22.The Theory of Everything is about the rules that everything in the universe follows.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned参考答案:A三、概括大意与完成句子Geothermal(地热)Energy1 Since heat naturally moves from hotter regions to cooler ones, the heat from the earth's center flows outwards towards the surface. In this way, it transfers to the next layer of rock. If the temperature is high enough, some of this rock melts and forms magma(岩浆). The magma ascends in its turn towards the earth's surface. It often remains well below the earth's surface, creating vast areas of hot rock. In such regions, there are deep cracks, which allow rainwater to descend underground. Some of the heated rainwater travels back up to the earth's surface where it will appear as a hot spring. However, if this ascending hot water reaches a layer of impermeable(不可渗透的)rock, it remains trapped, forming a geothermal reservoir. If geothermal reservoirs are close enough to the surface, they can be reached by drilling wells. Hot water and steam shoot up the wells naturally, and can be used to produce electricity in geothermal power plants.2.A few geothermal power plants depend on dry-stem reservoirs which produce steam but little or no water. In these cases, the steam is piped up directly to provide the power to spin a turbine generator. The first geothermal power plant, constructed at Lardarello in Italy, was of this type, and is still producing electricity today.3.Most currently operating geothermal power plants are either "flash" steam plants or binary(双重的)plants. Flash plants produce mainly hot water ranging in temperature from 300°to 700°Fahrenheit. This water is passed through one or two separators where released from the pressure of the underground reservoir, it "flashes" or boils into steam Again, the force of this steam provides the energy to spin the turbine and produce electricity. The geothermal water and steam are then reinjected directly back down into the earth to maintain the volume and pressure of the reservoir. Gradually they will be reheated and can then be used again.4.A reservoir with temperatures below 300°Fahrenheit is not hot enough to flash steam but it can still be used to generate electricity in binary fluid. The steam from this is used to power the turbines. As in the flash steam plant, the geothermal water is recycled back into the reservoir.23.Paragraph1_____A.Dry steam plantsB.Binary plantsC.Origin of geothermal energyD.Generation of electricityE.Flash steam plantsF.Recyclable water and steam 参考答案:C24Paragraph2_____A.Dry steam plantsB.Binary plantsC.Origin of geothermal energyD.Generation of electricityE.Flash steam plantsF.Recyclable water and steam 参考答案:A25Paragraph3_____A.Dry steam plantsB.Binary plantsC.Origin of geothermal energyD.Generation of electricityE.Flash steam plantsF.Recyclable water and steam 参考答案:E26Paragraph4_____A.Dry steam plantsB.Binary plantsC.Origin of geothermal energyD.Generation of electricityE.Flash steam plantsF.Recyclable water and steam参考答案:F27.A geothermal reservoir is formed when hot water is trapped under _____.A.the energy to turn a turbineB.impermeable rockC.one or two separatorsD.turbine operatorE.little or no waterF.hot springs参考答案:B28.A dry-steam reservoir produces steam with _____.A.the energy to turn a turbineB.impermeable rockC.one or two separatorsD.turbine operatorE.little or no waterF.hot springs参考答案:E29.Flash plants produce hot water through _____.A.the energy to turn a turbineB.impermeable rockC.one or two separatorsD.turbine operatorE.little or no waterF.hot springs参考答案:C30.In a binary plant, the heat of the geothermal water can be converted into _____.A.the energy to turn a turbineB.impermeable rockC.one or two separatorsD.turbine operatorE.little or no waterF.hot springs参考答案:A四、阅读理解Smart Windows1.Windows not only let light in to cut down an electricity use for lighting, but the light coming through the window also provides heat. However, windows are not something people typically associate with being a cutting edge technology. Researchers are now working on new technologies that enable a window to quickly change from clear to dark and anywhere in between easily.2."It took us a long time to figure out what a window really is," says Claes Granqvist. He's a professor of solid-state physics at Uppsala University in Sweden. "It's contact with the outside world. You have to have visual contact with the surrounding world to feel well." So, windows and natural light are important for improving the way people feel when they're stuck indoors.3.Yet, windows are the weak link in a building when it comes to energy and temperature control. In the winter, cold air leaks in. When it's hot and sunny, sunlight streams in. All of this sunlight carries lots of heat and energy. And all of this extra heat forces people to turn on their air conditioners. Producing cold air, which can feel so refreshing(使人清新的), actually suck up enormous amounts of electricity in buildings around the world.4.Windows have been a major focus of energy research for a long time. Over the years, scientists have come up with a variety of strategies for coating, glazing(用玻璃覆盖), and layering windows to make them more energy efficient. Smart windows go a step further. They use some chromogenic(发色的)technologies involving changes of color.5.Electrochromic(电致色的) windows use electricity to change color. For example,a sheet of glass coated with thin layers of tungsten oxide(氧化钨)works a bit like a battery. Tungsten oxide is clear when an electric charge is applied and dark when the charge is removed, that is, when the amount of voltage(电压)is decreased, the window darkens until it's completely dark after all electricity is taken away. So applying a voltage determines whether the window looks clear or dark.6.One important feature that makes a smart window so smart is that it has a sort of "memory". All it takes is a small shock of voltage to turn the window from one state to the other. Then, it stays that way. Transitions take from 10 seconds to a few minutes, depending on the size of the window. The development of smart windows could mean that massive air conditioning systems may no longer need. "In the future," Granqvist says, "our buildings may look different."31.Which of the following values of windows is NOT mentioned?A.They let light in to brighten the house.B.They let light in to heat the house.C.They let us have visual contact with the surrounding world.D.They let us think about the outside world.参考答案:D32.The expression "when it comes to" in Paragraph 3 is used to_____.A.signal the arrival of a guest.B.indicate the recovery of consciousness.C.show our understanding of something.D.introduce a new aspect of a topic.参考答案:D33.According to Paragraph 4, smart windows are the windows that_____.A.are costed.B.are glazed.C.have several layers.D.can change color.参考答案:D34.Which paragraph gives an account of the way electrochromic windows changing?A.Paragraph 5.B.Paragraph 3.C.Paragraph 4.D.Paragraph 6.参考答案:A35.A smart windows is smart mainly because_____.A.it can change its size.B.it can change its structure.C.it can change the voltage of electricity.D.it has a sort of memory.参考答案:DSports Star Yao MingIf Yao Ming is not the biggest sports star in the world, he is almost certainly the tallest. At 2.26m, he is the tallest player in the National Basketball Association (NBA) and holds the record as the most towering Olympian ever to compete in the Games.But what really stands out about the giant center is his celebrity(名气). Few, if any, Chinese athletes are as well-known as Yao around the world. People across the globe are fascinated with Yao, not only for his basketball prowess(杰出的才能)also for being a symbol of international commerce.When Yao joined the Houston Rockets as the No.1 pick in the 2002 NBA draft(选抜),he was the first international player ever to be selected first. His assets on thecourt are clear enough—no NBA player of his size has ever possessed his mobility, so he is a handful(难对付的人)for opponents on either end of the court. But what makes Yao invaluable to the Rockets organization is his role as a global citizen and as a bridge to millions of potential basketball fans in China.When it was announced in February that Yao would miss the rest of the NBA season and possibly the Olympics with a stress fracture(骨折)in his left foot, a collective shudder(震动)spread across China. After considerable debate and discussion, Yao opted to get his foot surgically treated in an operation that placed several tiny screws across the bone, to offer his overburdened foot more support. The surgery was a success, and though the estimated four-month recovery period will leave him little time to prepare with Team China, Yao has vowed to be ready for the Beijing Olympics.Yao wrapped up a 10-day trip to China, where he underwent a series of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) treatments, hoping to accelerate his recovery process Western experts are generally skeptical of TCM's benefits although new research from the University of Rochester suggests that a certain compound derived from shellfish may indeed stimulate bone repair."There is no reason to dismiss TCM," Yao told a press conference in Beijing." It's been used in our country for thousands of years. I don't think that it's short on science."36.The word "towering" in Paragraph 1 means_____rge.B.fat.C.tall.D.great.参考答案:C37.Opponents find it very difficult to control Yao Ming because of his_____A.mobility.B.assault.C.defense.D.celebrity.参考答案:A38.Yao Ming had to undergo a series of TCM treatments because_____A.his right foot had been hurting.B.he wanted to make a more rapid recovery.C.the surgical operation had been a failure.D.he couldn't afford all the medical expenses.参考答案:B39.Which statement about Yao Ming is NOT true?A.He missed the Athens Olympics.B.He is an NBA player.C.He fractured his left foot.D.He is an international figure.参考答案:A40.In general, the Western experts' attitude towards TCM is_____.A.indifferent.B.positive.C.negative.D.doubtful.参考答案:DCan you hear This?When something creates a sound wave in a room or an auditorium, listeners hear the sound wave directly from the source. They also hear the reflections as the sound bounces off the walls, floor, and ceiling. These are called the reflected wave or reverberant(反射的)sound, which can be heard even after the sound is no longer coming from the source.The reverberation time of an auditorium is determined by the volume or interior size of the auditorium. It is also determined by how well or how poorly the walls, ceiling, floor, and contents of the room (including the people) absorb sound. There isno ideal reverberation time. Because each use of an auditorium calls for different reverberation. Speech needs to be understood clearly: therefore rooms used for talking must have a short reverberation time. The full-sound performance of music such as Wagner operas or Mahler symphonies should have a long reverberation time. The light, rapid musical passages of Bach or Mozart need a reverberation time somewhere between.Acoustic problems often are caused by poor auditorium design. Smooth, curved reflecting surfaces create large reflections. Parallel(平行的)walls reflect sound back and forth, creating a rapid, repetitive pulsing effect. Large pillars(柱)and corners can cause acoustic shadows as the sound waves try to pass around the object. Some of these problems can be solved by using absorbers and reflectors to change the reverberation time of a room. For example, hanging large reflectors, called clouds, over the performers will allow some sound frequencies to reflect and others to pass to achieve a pleasing mixture of sound.41.This passage is mainly about_____A.sound waves and their effects.B.the types of music orchestras play.C.walls of an auditorium.D.the design of an auditorium.参考答案:D42.Wagner operas and Mahler symphonies with full-sound effect have_____A.a short reverberation time.B.an intermediate reverberation time.C.no reverberation time.D.a long reverberation time.参考答案:D43.This passage suggests that a good auditorium should_____A.get rid of all reflections.B.not have absorbers.C.achieve a pleasing mixture of sound.D.have smooth surfaces.参考答案:Drge pillars and corners may_____A.make sound rich and full.B.be cures for sound problems.C.be sources of sound problems.D.function as effectively as clouds.参考答案:C45.The word "acoustic" in the last paragraph has something to do with_____A.performance.B.sound.C.audience.D.weather.参考答案:B五、补全短文What Is a Dream?For centuries, people have wondered about the strange things that they dream about. Some psychologists say that this nighttime activity of the mind has no special meaning. Others, however, think that dreams are an important part of our lives. In fact, many experts believe that dreams can tell us about a person's mind and emotions.Before modern times, many people thought that dreams contained messages from God. _____(46)The Austrian psychologist, Sigmund Freud, was probably the first person to study dreams scientifically. In his famous book, The interpretation of Dreams (1900), Freud wrote that dreams are an expression of a person's wishes. He believed that dreams allow people to express the feelings, thoughts, and fears that they are afraid to express in real life.The Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung was once a student of Freud's. Jung, however, had a different idea about dreams. Jung believed that the purpose of a dream was tocommunicate a message to the dreamer._____(47)For example, people who dream about falling may learn that they have too high an opinion of themselves. On the other hand, people who dream about being heroes may learn that they think too little of themselves.Modern-day psychologists continue to develop theories about dreams. For example, psychologist William Domhoff from the University of California, Santa Cruz, believes that dreams are tightly linked to a person's daily life, thoughts, and behavior. _____(48)Domhoff believes that there is a connection between dreams and age. His research shows that children do not dream as much as adults. According to Domhoff, dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop.He has also found a link between dreams and gender. His studies show that the dreams of men and women are different. _____(49)This is not true of women's dreams. Domhoff found this gender difference in the dreams of people from 11 cultures around the world, including both modern and traditional ones.Can dreams help us understand ourselves? Psychologists continue to try to answer this question in different ways._____(50)The dream may have meaning, but itdoes not mean that some terrible event will actually take place. It's important to remember that the world of dreams is not the real world.46._____A.For example, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.参考答案:E47._____A.For example, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.参考答案:F48._____A.For example, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.参考答案:C49._____A.For example, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.参考答案:A50._____A.For example, the people in men's dreams are often other men, and the dreams often involve fighting.B.Men and women dream about different things.C.A criminal, for example, might dream about crime.D.However, one thing they agree on this: If you dream that something terrible is going to occur, you shouldn't panic.E.It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams in a scientific way.F.He thought people could learn more about themselves by thinking about their dreams.参考答案:D六、完形填空Warmer climate will bake tropical bugsGlobal warming could cook tropical insects, with unpredictable knock-on effects, say researchers who warn that rising temperatures also_____(51)tropical frogs and lizards(蜥蜴).Temperatures are_____(52)to increase much faster in temperate(温和的)and polar(极地的)regions than in the tropics. But no-one had looked at how warming would affect insects and other cold-blooded animals_____(53)had evolved in tropical regions with little temperature variation.Curtis Deutsch at the University of California at Los Angeles and colleagues analysed data_____(54)insect survival and reproduction for 38 species in different ecosystems(生态系统), and then estimated how these values would_____(55)with predictions of climate change for the 21st century.The team found that the reproductive_____(56)of tropical insects tends to peak very close to the temperatures where they normally live, but_____(57)sharply at higher temperatures. This means that cranking up(提高)the heat only a small amount can exert a heavy toll, leaving insects unable to reproduce_____(58)enough to keep up their numbers.Temperate insects reproduce well over a broader range, and do not liveas_____(59)to their thermal(热的)limit, so they can reproduce successfully when their climate warms more than in the tropics."Tropical insects do very well in a narrow band of temperatures, but move them above that_____(60)and they die," says team member Josh Tewksbury of the University of Washington in Seattle.The heart of the_____(61)is temperature tolerance. Temperate-zone insects have evolved to survive the much broader temperature swings of seasonal climates, than have their tropical relatives.The_____(62)appears worse for animals that live in hot stable climate of the lower levels of tropical forests. Lizards in clear areas can find shade to cool down, but thoseliving in the forest are already in the_____(63), and there's not much they can do to get cooler, Deutsch says.Too few tropical insects have been studied so far to_____(64)if any particular group will be particularly hard-hit, says Tewksbury. Insects play important_____(65)in forest ecology(生态学).The team are now starting to evaluate how temperature affects ecological interactions of insects with other species, including crops such as African corn.51.A.treat B.threaten C.help D.protect参考答案:B52.A.demanded B.needed C.promised D.expected参考答案:D53.A.while B.where C.that D.what参考答案:C54.A.on B.in C.at D.with参考答案:A55.A.meet B.spread C.decrease D.change参考答案:D56.A.rate B.value C.system D.type参考答案:A57.A.develops B.stops C.rises D.drops参考答案:D58.A.fast B.typically C.firmly D.jointly参考答案:A59.A.important B.possible C.close D.necessary 参考答案:C60.A.range B.order C.rank D.XX参考答案:C61.A.proposal B.project C.thesis D.problem 参考答案:D62.A.reason B.cause C.level D.effect参考答案:D63.A.cave B.shade C.sunshine D.open参考答案:B64.A.tell B.speak C.wonder D.doubt参考答案:A65.A.tricks B.roles C.games D.rules参考答案:B。

回答16-22题:Easy LearningStudents should be jealous.Not only do ba bies get to doze their days away, but they’ve also mastered the fine art of learning in their sleep.By the time babies are a year old they can recognise a lot of sounds and even simple words.Marie Cheour at the University of Turku in Finland suspected that they might progress this fast because they learn language while they sleep as well as when they are awake.To test the theory, Cheour and her colleagues studied 45 newborn babies in the first few days of their lives.They exposed all the infants to an hour of Finnish vowel sounds—one that sounds like “oo”, another like “ee” and a third boundary vowel peculiar to Finnish and similar languages that sounds like something in between.EEG recordings of the infants brains before and after the session showed that the newborns could not distinguish the sounds.Fifteen of the babies then went back with their mothers, while the rest were split into two sleep-study groups.One group was exposed throughout their night-time sleeping hours to the same three vowels, while the others listened to other, easier-to-distinguish vowel sounds.When tested in the morning, and again in the evening, the babies who’d heard the tricky boundary vowel all night showed brainwave activity indicating that they could now recognise this new sound.They could identify the sound even when its pitch was changed, while none of the other babies could pick up the boundary vowel at all.Cheour doesn’t know how babies accomplish this night-time learning, but she suspects that the special abili ty might indicate that unlike adults, babies don’t “turn off” their cerebral cortex while they sleep.The skill probably fades in the course of the first year of life, she adds—so forgetthe idea that you can pick up tricky French vowels as an adult just by slipping a language tape under your pillow.But while it may not help grown-ups, Cheour is hoping to use the sleeping hours to give remedial help to babies who are genetically at risk of language disorders.Babies can learn language even in their sleep.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned17、An infant can recognize a lot of vowels by the time he or she is a year old.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned18、Finnish vowels are easy to distinguish.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned19、The three vowels mentioned in this article are all Finnish sounds.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned20、The study shows that the infant’s cerebral cortex is working while he is asleep.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned21、If an adult wants to learn a language faster.he can put a language tape under his pillow.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned22、Cheour’s finding is worthless.A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned第3部分:概括大意与完成句子(第23-30题,每题1分,共8分)下面的短文后有2项测试任务:(1)第23~26题要求从所给的6个选项中为第2~5段每段选择1个最佳标题;(2)第27~30题要求从所给的6个选项中为每个句子确定1个最佳选项。
