weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups．Where to Stay:Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modernHotel Centrale Byron．How to Get Around:Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city．Where to Eat or Drink:Housed in a former movie theater,two-storey Ristorante Cinema Alex-ander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu)． For fresh seafood, try Osteria L'Accigua and Da Buco．What to Buy : Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporaryand traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantineforefathers．What to Read Before You Go:Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis-． 2010) ,provides a wide-ranging look at the city's art, architecture, and history．(本题12分)1(单选题)In ancient times, mosaics were used to(本题3分)A display artistic achievementsB compete with Roman paintingsC explain religion and politicsD teach reading and writing标准答案： C2(单选题)Lots of school children visit historic sites such as Ravenna in(本题3分)A MayB JuneC SeptemberD October标准答案： A3(单选题)If you want to try fresh seafood,you should goto__________ .(本题3分)A Emilia RomagnaB Hotel Centrale ByronC Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD Osteria L'Accigua and Da Buco标准答案： D4(单选题)Why is Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?(本题3分)A Because it was written by a famous writer．B Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it．C Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces．D Because it provides useful information about the city's weather．标准答案： B23(阅读理解题)根据下面内容，回答问题：When you pat your pet dog, he wags (摆来摆去)his tail． That is his way of saying that he lovesyou． And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things． Every move-ment of the tail means a different thing． If the dog iswagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness ; if histail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight ; and if his tail is tucked (塞) behind his legs, itmeans he is giving up the fight．Unlike dogs, cats' tail language is not so expressive． When a cat feels threatened, he puffs him-self up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension． And when he is displeased with something, helashes out(甩动) his tail．The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it． Earlier, when dogs and cats hadnot become friends with human beings, they were predators． They used to hunt other animals for theirfood． When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy． When they were closeto each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk． But, for long-distance c,o~mmunication, theyused their tails． Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone． So, they did not need to use tail language toooften． As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs'．(本题12分)1(单选题)What does it mean when a dog's tail is straight?(本题3分)A It has a lot to say to you．B It wants to stop fighting．C It is going to fight．D It likes to be patted．标准答案： C2(单选题)A cat tries to appear big when it is __________ .(本题3分)A facing a dangerB unhappyC ready to huntD hungry标准答案： A3(单选题)Which of the following does the author intend to say?(本题3分)A Dogs and cats are not good friends．B Dogs are much friendlier than cats．C Dogs and cats are usually good pets．D Dogs use tail language more than cats．标准答案： D4(单选题)In the last paragraph, the underlined word "predato．rs" refers to __________ .(本题3分)A animals that follow and obey other animalsB animals that kill and eat other animalsC animals that live in the wildD animals kept by people标准答案： B24(阅读理解题)根据下面内容，回答问题：Like any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast． Just a year old, the monthlymagazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan ,47, the asso-ciate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013． He left the London-based literary journal last month．Editing One Teen Story--the younger sibling(姐妹篇）of One Story magazine--will offer Ryan achance to reach a whole new audience． "It's really the only magazine for young adult short fiction,"he says from his office in New York． "It's tremendously exciting that there are younger people outthere who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month． That form is usu-ally only presented when it's forced upon them in schools． "Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year． Like its siblingmagazine, it doesn't carry photographs or advertising． It's just exactly what it says:one story per issue．Ryan says young people are "looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identifywith． It'snot about having a message or positive spin (说教)． It always starts on a character level,and it has to have an interesting story． If you look at the ' Twilight' characters and the ' HarryPotter' characters,they feel very contemporary． " Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors． "I would love to make OneTeen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business． I just really lovethe idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody--would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was woah keeping at this．”(本题12分)1(单选题)Who is Patrick Ryan?(本题3分)A He is the editor．in．chief of Granta．B He is the editor—in—chief of One Story．C He is the editor．in—chief of“Twilight”．、D He is the editor—in-chief of One Teen Story．标准答案： D2(单选题)What is One Teen Story?(本题3分)A It is a story magazine for teenagers．B It is a London—based literary iournal．C It is a column of a newspaper．D It is a magazine of science fiction．标准答案： A3(单选题)According to Ryan。

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析
2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)Section A （每小题2分）Format ⅠPassage One1. B【解析】主旨题。
此题解题技巧是：文章以问题开头，往往可从其后紧跟的句子中概括出主旨题的答案。
本文开头的问句有两个，涉及where与who，因此可以排除最大的干扰项C，而更有概括性的选项B为正确答案。
2. B【解析】细节题。
细节题常用的一个出题套路是正确选项不是照抄原文，而是对原文进行同义替换。
本题B选项的leftover food就同义替换了原文第二段中的scraps of food。
3. C【解析】细节题。
此题不难，定位到第三段“She replaced the soft center with spices and nut s”一句，很容易得出正确答案C4. D【解析】词汇语义题。
对词汇量较小的考生来说，代入法是针对这类题目较为实用的解题技巧。
即用四个选项逐项替代原词，看看哪个选项最符合上下文的逻辑。
定位到第三段最后一句，根据常识，用拳头击打炸面圈的中间，很可能中间会被打出一个洞来。
因此，选项D“result（后果）”一词最合题意。
5. B【解析】推断题。
倒数第二段说到，这些“Doughnut Girls（炸面圈女孩）”都在靠近士兵的危险地方工作，这里的“dangerous conditions near the soldiers（靠近士兵危险地方）”玩的是文字游戏，显然指的就是靠近前线战场的地方，因此B为正确选项。
Passage Two6.A【解析】短语语义题。
本文的前两句很容易利用对照关系确定plain是gook look的反义，即长相平凡之意。
而且本文围绕着长相与收入的关系展开，因此，可确定A为正确答案。
7. D【解析】细节题中的数学题。
首先要提醒各位考生，凡是数字题正确答案一般都要经过简单的计算，涉及原文数字的选项则多为陷阱。

In spite ofPart Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (2×20 points)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to b etter understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier— our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that________.A. the author complains about her parents ‘being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. people divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always right.D. Because the others have done something wrong.63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimaterelationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our partners, we should ________firstly .A. have willingness to do soB. have love for themC. get into connection with themD. care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to________ .A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage 2Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning…is exhaustive and time consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their “always wanted” gi fts back to the store to exchange for something they reallywanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)________.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. Must be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ________ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC.abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that ________.A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping.70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is________ .A. indifferentB. protestingC.objectiveD. supportivePassage 3They already guide blind and disabled people；now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆). The duti es of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s, but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate ver bally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for________.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. communicating with the owner in a non verbal wayD. helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to stay with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will________.A. respond to t he owners’ orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners’ instructionsD. act on the trainers’ order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be________.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage 4It seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too—but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally—to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to＄2 billion in 2006—an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year—yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases—they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24year olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally.Piracy—usually in the form of cheaply copied CD—has long been an issue for the music business but the Internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They gave CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs77. The Crimea hope to make money________ .A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the InternetD. through sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because________ .A. people who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. people who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. Overall, sales are up last year.B. Overall, sales are down last year.C. There is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the Internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part Ⅱ Cloze (1×20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

The leader of the Left Party, Ulla Hoffman said the people have made it clear democracy comes from the bottom, not from above .The Left Party, along with the environmentalist Greens, fought against the euro. But Prime Minister Goran Persson, who led the movement for the euro, said Sweden would have worse opportunities without the common currency in the long term.Euro supporters say that it would have improved trade with the 12-nation zone that uses the euro, and that a no vote would leave Sweden without a voice in EU economic decisions Critics said the euro would mean higher prices and less money for Sweden’s cradle-to-grave welfare system.36.Among the following persons, who is a euro opponent according to the passage?A.

Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successful. Couples go through physically and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for children and adults suffering from leukemia(白血病).This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer. Cloning technology can be used to test and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.41.Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technology by ______.A. removing the each other for longB. repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesC. replacing the old heart with a cloned oneD. giving the patients injections of various medicines42.The word “infertile”, in paragraph 2,most probably means______.A. separated from each other for longB. with physical and emotional problemsC. short of time and moneyD. unable to give birth to a child43.According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in _____.A. the cure of blood diseasesB. the bearing of babiesC. the treatment of heart attacksD. the treatment of cancer44.Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by _____.A. attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB. detecting disordered genes in the cancer cellsC. controlling the growth of the cellsD. activating cancer cells by switching them on45.According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that_____.A. people are afraid of such technologyB. it has brought about few benefits so farC. people still know little about itD. its benefits are very limitedPassage FourYour boss holds your future prospects in his hands. Some bosses are hard to get along with. Some have excellent qualifications but no idea when it comes to dealing with people. Of course, not all bosses are like that.The relationship you have with your boss can be a major factor in determining your rise up the career ladder. Your boss is not only your leader, he is also the person best equipped to help you do the job you are paid to do.

Observe and understand your boss’s work style. If he has not been clear with his expectations, ask! Likewise, ask for feedback and accept criticism gracefully. And if he understand that you do not view your job as just something to fill the hours between 9 and 5, he may be more likely to help you.In short, getting along with your boss requires getting to know his likes and dislikes and learning to work with his personality and management style.46.The main idea of the first paragraph is that______.A. bosses are hard to deal withB. bosses have good characterC. bosses must have similar personalityD. bosses determine your career future47.In the second paragraph, “rise up the career ladder” means_____.A. going to work abroadB. being promoted in positionC. changing jobs frequentlyD. pursuing an advanced degree48.In order to achieve his objectives, your boss expects that you will_____.A. get along with your colleaguesB. show your management skillsC. do your best in your workD. write reports to upper management49.The most important factor for establishing a good working relationship with the boss is_____.A. high expectationsB. effective communicationC. frequent criticismD. quick feedback50.

Another habit which___60___down the speed of reading is vocalization(发声)—sounding each word either orally or mentallyas___61___reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an___62___, which moves a bar (or curtain) down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate___63___the reader fi nds comfortable, in order to “stretch” him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast,___64___word-by-word reading, regression and subvocalization, practically impossible. At fist___65___is sacrificed for speed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster,___66___your comprehension will improve.

To keep up with their work, they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never ending flood of words.

He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 58 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 59 you havejust read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 60 down the speed of reading is vocalization( 发声 )—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 61 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 62, which moves a bar(or curtain)down the page at a predetermined speed.

Some feel proud when they receive the news, while others worry, wondering whether they will be good fathers. Although there are some men who like children and may have had considerable experience with them, others do not particularly care for children and spend little time with them. Many fathers and mothers have been planning and looking forward for children for some time. For other couples, pregnancy was an accident that both husband and wife have accepted willingly or unwillingly. Whatever the reaction to the birth of a child, it is obvious that the shift from the role of husband to that of father is a difficult task. Yet, unfortunately, few attempts have been made to educate fathers in this re-socialization process. Although numerous books have been written about American mothers, only recently has literature focused on the role of a father. It is argued by some writers that the transition to the father’s role, although difficult, is not nearly as great as the transition the wife must make to the mother’s role. The mother’s role seems to require a complete transformation in daily routine and highly innovative adaptation, on the other hand, the father’s role is less demanding and immediate. However, even though we mentioned the fact that growing numbers of women are working outside the home, the father is still thought by many as the breadwinner in the household.26．According to the author, being a father______.A．brings a feeling of excitement to some menB．has a different meaning for those who have daughtersC．makes some men feel proud and others uneasyD．means nothing but responsibilities正确答案：C27．It is stated in the passage that______.A．some parents are not prepared to have a childB．young couples do not like children at allC．working couples do not have much time to take care of their childrenD．many couples look forward to having a boy as their first child正确答案：A28．In the third paragraph, the author______.A．gives expression to his discontent with fathers for not taking enough responsibility in bringing up their childrenB．excuses the American writers for taking no notice of the difficulties of being a fatherC．supports the idea that the chief role of a father is to earn money for the family D．expresses dissatisfaction with the lack of social programs to help husbands to be good fathers.正确答案：A29．The transition to the mother’s role requires that the wife______.A．change her life style in a highly innovative wayB．make a complete change in her everyday life to deal with the new situation C．stay at home to take care of the babyD．help her husband in his re-socialization process正确答案：B30．Some writers argue that with respect to the change of roles, fathers, compared with mothers, ______.A．have to shoulder more burdensB．have to make more difficult adaptationsC．have an easier job to doD．can usually do a better job正确答案：CPeople, in different parts of the world have very different ideas about what is good to eat. Even when people in different countries eat the same food, they often prepare it very differently. If you were inGermany, you would find soup that is thick and heavy. If you were in China, you would find soup that is thin and clear. On holidays most of us eat special foods. Year after year, even if many other things change, the food is always the same. Sometimes housewives begin weeks in advance to prepare the special foods that are traditionally served on certain holidays. People in different parts of the world also have different ideas about what is good to drink. Among the most popular hot drinks are coffee and tea. Coffee is very popular in northern Europe and in theMiddle East. Some people put cream and sugar in their coffee. But in the United States, many people drink their coffee “black” that is withoutcream or sugar. Tea is the national drink in China, Japan, and other Oriental(东方的)countries. In the Orient, people drink tea without sugar. But in England where it is also a national drink, many people use both sugar and hot or cold milk in their tea.31．People in different parts of the world( ).A．cook the same food in different waysB．like the same kinds of foodC．have the same ideas about foodsD．know how to prepare the same food正确答案：A32．Special foods on holidays will( ).A．change a lot year after yearB．have different tastes with the years passing byC．remain the same for many yearsD．be served before certain holidays正确答案：C33．When drinking coffee, many Americans like to( ).A．add tea to itB．add milk to itC．drink it with or sugar addedD．drink it with nothing added正确答案：D34．In England,( )is a popular national drink.A．cold milkB．teaC．hot milkD．black coffee正确答案：B35．Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A．We Should Eat Different FoodsB．Special Foods on Certain HolidaysC．People in Western Countries Like Coffee MostD．Different Ideas about Foods and Drinks正确答案：DThere are many ways to learn about people of other lands. One way is to study the clothing other people wear. For thousands of years, people in different parts of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big reasons for this. One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils(面纱)to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man-made materials. Most people inChina wear cotton. The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone living in India can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs. World-wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim(帽檐)up. InChina, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from the sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.36．If you want to learn about the differences about people in the world, you( ).A．should know the ways to study other landsB．should know the four big reasons given in the passageC．may study the different types of clothing people wearD．may be surprised by the ways people wear hats正确答案：C37．In many Moslem countries, women have to( )in public.A．wear more clothes than menB．wear veils to hide their facesC．protect their faces from being hurtD．wear beautiful clothing正确答案：B38．Which of the following is the reason for the differences in clothing?A．Materials used for clothes differ from country to country.B．Cotton is the common material for clothing.C．Man-made materials are invented to make clothes.D．Most people like silk clothes.正确答案：A39．The third reason for different in clothing is( ).A．different materialsB．different ways of making clothesC．different styles of dressingD．different religions正确答案：B40．The two examples of wearing hats are given in the last paragraph to show( ).A．the effect of customs on dressing styleB．the function of wearing straw hatC．the correct way of wearing straw hatD．the long history of some customs正确答案：DClozeTwenty years ago, kids in school never heard of the Internet.

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful r eality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---andhealthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author compla ins about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. Some peo ple divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift giversalways wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for daysbefore you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)_____.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. must-be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ____for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC. abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America inthat____A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giverB. Wrap the gift carefullyC. Express the appreciation for the gift you receiveD.

These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or walking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into pr actice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “people in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relative normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship.

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful r eality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---and healthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author complains about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. Some peo ple divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift giversalways wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)_____.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. must-be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ____for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC. abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America inthat____A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giverB. Wrap the gift carefullyC. Express the appreciation for the gift you receiveD. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70. The author’s attitude towards gift givi ng is_____.A. IndifferentB. protestingC. objectiveD. supportive参考答案：61-65DCCAB 66-70 BDADCPassage ThreeThey already guide blind and disabled people; now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia（痴呆）.The duties of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or walking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into pr actice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “people in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relative normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship.

Having a conversation with people with dementia will be_______.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage FourIt seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group the Crimea did earlier this year. The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people the can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some [people who want something they can hold in their hands so theywill release the CD into the shops too-- but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally --to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to $2 billion in 2006 -- an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year -- yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buy CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers the\y used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases -- they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK Mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24-year-olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competitionfor people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the mount of music that is downloaded illegally. Piracy --- usually in the form of cheaply copied CD ---has long been an issue for the music business but the internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They give CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs.77. The Crimea hope to make money _______.A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the internetD. though sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because _______.A. People who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. People who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. overall, sales are up on last year.B. .overall, sales are down on last year.C. there is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.参考答案：71-75 DCCBC 76-80 ABCBC81. 她喜欢看书时听音乐。

Then, mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.At first glance, there hardly seems to be any comparison between Ravenna and Rome, but back in the 5th century, it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Western Roman Empire. In this city, Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics(镶嵌图案). Seven of Ravenna’s eight buildings from the 5 th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decorated with examples of this ancient art. “ In the past, many people couldn’t read or write, “ says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. “Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation to the people. “Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces. Travel Tips When to Go: June—October: weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups. Where to Stay:Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron. How to Get Around: Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city. Where to Eat or Drink: Housed in a former movie theater, two-storey Ristorante Cinema Alexander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu). For fresh seafood, try Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco. What to Buy: Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporary and traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantine forefathers. What to Read Before You Go: Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis(2010), provides a wide-ranging look at the city’s art, architecture, and history.21．In ancient times, mosaics were used to______.A．display artistic achievementsB．compete with Roman paintingsC．explain religion and politicsD．teach reading and writing正确答案：C22．Lots of school children visit historic sites such as Ravenna in______.A．MayB．JuneC．SeptemberD．October正确答案：A23．If you want to try fresh seafood, you should go to______.A．Emilia RomagnaB．Hotel Centrale ByronC．Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD．Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco正确答案：D24．Why is Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?A．Because it was written by a famous writer.B．Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C．Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D．Because it provides useful information about the city’s weather.正确答案：BWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags(摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he loves you. And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every movement of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness: if his tail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight: and if his tail is tucked(塞)behind his legs, it means he is giving up the fight. Unlike dogs, cats’ tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs himself up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, he lashes out(甩动)his tail. The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats had not become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for their food. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were close to each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance communication, they used their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language too often. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs’.25．What does it mean when a dog’s tail is straight?A．It has a lot to say to you.B．It wants to stop fighting.C．It is going to fight.D．It likes to be patted.正确答案：C26．A cat tries to appear big when it is______.A．facing a dangerB．unhappyC．ready to huntD．hungry正确答案：A27．Which of the following does the author intend to say?A．Dogs and cats are not good friends.B．Dogs are much friendlier than cats.C．Dogs and cats are usually good pets.D．Dogs use tail language more than cats.正确答案：D28．In the last paragraph, the underlined word “predators” refers to______.A．animals that follow and obey other animalsB．animals that kill and eat other animalsC．animals that live in the wildD．animals kept by people正确答案：BLike any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year old, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief:Patrick Ryan, 47 , the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month. Editing One Teen Story—the younger sibling(姊妹篇)of One Story magazine—will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience. “It’s really the only magazine for young adult short fiction, “ he says from his office in New York. “ It’s tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it’s forced upon them in schools. “Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine, it doesn’t carry photographs or advertising. It’s just exactly what it says: one story per issue. Ryan says young people are “looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with. It’s not about having a message or positive spin(说教). It always starts on a character level, and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ‘ Twilight’ characters and the ‘ Harry Potter’characters, they feel very contemporary. “Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. “I would love to make One Teen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business. I just really love the idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody—would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was worth keeping at this. “29．Who is Patrick Ryan?A．He is the editor-in-chief of Granta.B．He is the editor-in-chief of One Story.C．He is the editor-in-chief of “Twilight”.D．He is the editor-in-chief of One Teen Story.正确答案：D30．What is One Teen Story?A．It is a story magazine for teenagers.B．It is a London-based literary journal.C．It is a column of a newspaper.D．It is a magazine of science fiction.正确答案：A31．According to Ryan, what attracts young readers most?A．Photographs and illustration.B．Chances and practices in business.C．Characters and stories close to their life.D．Political teachings and moral messages.正确答案：C32．In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “this business” means______.A．reading storiesB．writing storiesC．editing magazinesD．making money正确答案：BCouples are restricting the size of their families in the UK because of cash worries brought on by the financial crisis and the subsequent decline. We’re now up to nearly 3. 7 million families where there is an only child, a rise from about 3. 3 million in 2005. That means nearly half of all parents have only one child. Financial worries aren’t the only driver. The trend towards later motherhood has been mentioned as a cause, as have soaring costs of raising a child, which have been calculated as ￡222, 500 from birth to 21 years of age. This is an increase of nearly 40% in 10 years. The increasing availability of IVF(试管婴儿)is also a factor and an interesting one. Couples who might have remained childless in the past now invest in IVF and get pregnant. And because of the cost they stop after one child. It may not be a bad thing: there are outstanding examples of talented only children. Some argue that being an only child promoted their success. These include actors Natalie Portman and Al Paci-no, golfer Tiger Woods and even Queen Victoria. A study from the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex also showedthat the fewer brothers and sisters a child has, the happier they are. It seems fighting for parental attention and affection—which sometimes descends into physical fights —is more stressful than any adult had previously thought. And it’s not compensated(弥补)by having a playmate.33．The smaller size of UK families is mainly related to______.A．financial problemsB．technical problemsC．health problemsD．cultural problems正确答案：A34．The passage shows that IVF is______.A．safer than natural pregnancyB．very popular in UKC．very expensiveD．a risky investment正确答案：C35．What is a proved advantage of one-child family?A．Improved family life.B．Higher number of sports stars.C．Efficient family education.D．Promotion of children’s success.正确答案：D36．The findings of the institute at the University of Essex might mean that______.A．the only children’s lack of playmates causes problemsB．the only children are much happier than othersC．parents-children relationship is off balanceD．children have to struggle for parental love正确答案：BAbout 79 million Americans have pre-diabetes(糖尿病前期). That means they have blood sugar that’s higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed(诊断)with type 2—at least not yet. One long-term study reported by the American Diabetes Association found that 11 % of people with pre-diabetes develop the full-blown disease each year. Another study shows that pre-diabetes will probablybecome type 2 in 10 years or less. Yet, that process is not inevitable. Last year, scientists in Colorado found that people with pre-diabetes who lowered their blood sugar to normal levels—even briefly—were 56% less likely to reach type 2 levels. If you have pre-diabetes, here are four steps to help prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis: Lose 7% of your body weight. That is about 15 pounds for the persons who weigh 200. Dropping that small percentage has been shown to lower the risk of developing type 2 by close to 60%. Exercise 30 minutes five days a week. Whether you do the 30 minutes in one shot or in three 10-minute sessions, the benefit is the same. Choose certain exercises, such as fast walking, playing tennis or lifting weights. Physical activity such as sweeping floors works, too. Turn to your doctor. In some cases, pre-diabetes raises the risk of heart disease and stroke by 50%. Your doctor may use some medicine to control your glucose(葡萄糖)levels and keep your blood pressure in check. Know your numbers. To see if your pre-diabetes is improving, have your blood sugar checked regularly. A fasting blood sugar of 100 to 125 mg/dl suggests pre-diabetes: 126 mg/dl or above is diabetes: and below 100 is normal. Other tests, including glucose tolerance and AIC, also are used to monitor blood sugar.37．What do we learn from the two studies mentioned in Paragraph 1?A．Pre-diabetes will surely become type 2 diabetes.B．Pre-diabetes is likely to become diabetes within years.C．Enough attention should be paid to the treatment of type 2.D．Pre-diabetes is ranked No. 1 danger threatening Americans’ health.正确答案：B38．To prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis, people with pre-diabetes should pay most attention to______.A．glucose levelsB．exercisesC．heart diseaseD．stroke正确答案：A39．Which of the following suggests that you have pre-diabetes?A．70 mg/dl.B．90 mg/dl.C．110 mg/dl.D．130 mg/dl.正确答案：C40．What column of a newspaper is most likely to have this article?A．Technology.B．Entertainment.C．Education.D．Health.正确答案：DPart IV ClozeDirections: There are some blanks in the following passages.

In this city, Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics(镶嵌图案). Seven of Ravenna´s eight buildings from the 5 th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decorated with examples of this ancient art. " In the past, many people couldn´t read or write, " says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. "Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation to the people. "Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces.Travel TipsWhen to Go: June—October: weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups.Where to Stay:Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron.。
