For each of them there are four choices marked A，B，C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage：The most famous collections of fairy tales are the ones by Jakob and Wilhelm Grimm. The Grimms published their first fairy-tale collection in 1812.They disappearing German folk culture. Their first edition (版本) was a scholarly book that carefully recorded the oral tales. They were surprised when some of their early readers suggested that the stories might be interesting to children.But the Grimms needed money. They had made a bad deal with their publisher and received little payment for their first book. At one point Wilhelm complained there wasn‘t a chair in his house one could sit on without worrying it would break. So he took the hint and set to work to make a book that would be suitable for children. He selected a few of the tales，made them much longer ，and polished up the language. He didn’t add morals ，but he did slip in character judgments and moralizing comments wherever he could.The Grimms‘fairy tales also have one characteristic that would seem to make them unsuitable for children. Many of them include violent incidents. In “Hansel and Gretel” eaten by a wolf. When he revised the tales for c hildren，Wilhelm Grimm retained the violence. In fact，he sometimes even ramped it up. For example，in thefirst edition，the one intended for children，that her birds peck(啄)out their eyes.Why，then，have the Grimms‘fairy tales become classic of children’s literature，so much so that it is hard to imagine a child who doesn‘t know Cinderella’s story or Snow White‘s?One answer is that only a few of the tales survived into modern times. The first edition of the Grimms‘fairy tales had 210 tales. By 1825 it was down to 50. And taday only a dozen or so of the tales are often reprinted in children’s collections.(76)But the deeper answer is that the tales that have lasted are magical adventures that help children deal with the struggles and fears of their everyday lives.Why did Wilhelm Grimm set out to adapt his book for children?To deal with readers‘complaints.To improve his financial situation.At the request of his publisher.To preserve the ancient stories in print.When revising the fairy tales，Wilhelm did all of the following EXCEPT_______.A. adding character judgments.B. making the tales much longerC. deleting the violent scenesD. polishing up the language3. What does the expression “ramped it up” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?A. StartedB. AllowedC. ClassifiedD. Increased4.

They are less violent than the children‘s stories being written today.5. What is the passage mainly concerned with?A. History of fairy tales.B. Ways to preserve the oral tradition.C. The Grimms‘fairy tales.D. Violence in fairy tales.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage：As the school year kicks off，parents are once again struggling to cajole (哄骗) and，if need be，drag their exhausted teens out of bed，That image may make you laugh，but lack of sleep is no joke. (77)Teenagers who don‘t get enough rest have more learning，health，behavior and mood problems than students who get at least nine hours a night. Long-term lack of sleeo is tied to heart disease，overweight，depression and a shortened life. Lack of sleep can be especially deadly for teens; car accidents are the leading cause of death among teenagers ，and safety experts believe sleepy driving is a major factor.Unfortunately，few teenagers get the sleep they need. In a survey of middle- and high-school students，University of Colorado researchers found that 82 percent said they woke up tied and unrefreshed，and more than half had trouble concentrating during the day at least once a week.Blame multitasking for some of this. Many students are juggling after-school activities，homework and part-time jobs. Even when they manage to fulfill these obligations by a reasonable hour，television，the internet，video games，phonecalls and text message to friends often keep them awake deep into the night. Taking soda and energy drinks late in the day and going to late-night parties on weekends add to sleep for most teens to fall asleep before 11 pm. Class usually beings before 8：15 am，with many high schools starting as weends to catch up，making it even harder to fall asleep on Sunday night and wake up Monday morning . Playing catch-up on weekends also doesn‘t help teens stay refreshed when the need it most：during the week at school.Since the 1990s，middle and high school in more than two dozen states have experimented with later school start times. (78) The results have been encouraging：more sleep，increased attendance，better grades and fewer driving accidents. But most school still start early，meaning teens have their work cut out for them if they want to get enough sleep.6. According to the passage，poor sleep can be linked to all of the following EXCEPT____.A. heart diseaseB. car accidentsC. skin problemsD. poor concentration7. The main idea of Paragraph 3 is______.A. how sleep deprivation(缺乏)can be treatedB. what causes sleep deprivationC. who is most at risk for sleep deprivationD. why sleep deprivation is a serious concern8. What does the word “juggling” in Paragragph3 probably mean?A. Dealing with at the same timeB. Striking a balance betweenC. Weekend catch-up sleepD. Healthy diet9. Which of the following is NOT to balme for teenager‘lack of sleep?A. MultitaskingB. Striking a balance betweenC. Weekend catch-up sleepD. Healthy diet10. According to the passage，what have some school done to help their students get enough sleep?A. Educating their students about the importance of sleepB. Monitoring their students‘late-night activitiesC. Delaying school start timesD. Setting strict rules.。

北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案

北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76)I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer’ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer”.The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.After a year or so, h owever, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 )I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, andanyone with a dream must learn to live there.1. The passage is meant to ______.A. warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experienceB. advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writerC. show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fameD. encourage young people to pursue a writing career2. What can be concluded from the passage?A. Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.B. A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.C. Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.D. The chances for writer to become successful are small3. Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?A. He wasn’t able to produce a single book.B. He hadn’t seen aching for the better.C. He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.D. He though that he lacked imagination.4. “…people who die wondering: What if ?”(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to “those _____”.A. who think too much of the dark side of lifeB. who regret giving up their career halfwayC. who think a lot without making a decisionD. who are full of imagination even upon death5. “Shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _____.A. the wonderland on often dreams aboutB. the bright future that one is looking forward toC. the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reachedD. a world that exists only in one’s imaginationPassage 2uestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Man is a land animal, but he is also closely tied to the sea. Throughout history the sea has served the needs of man. The sea has provided man with food and a convenient way to travel to many parts of the world. Toady, experts believe that nearly two-thirds of the wo rld’s population live within eighty kilometers of the seacoast.(78)In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply man y of man’s needs in the future.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, copper and so on exist on the ocean floor.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. For example, warm temperature of the ocean can be used as the steam in a steamship. Sea may also offer a source of energy as electricity for mankind.Technology is enabling man to explore even deeper under the sea. It is obvious that the technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. (79)By the 2050, experts believe that the problems to explore the food, minerals and energy resources of the sea will have been largel7y solved.6. What is the beat title for the passage?A. Needs of Man.B. Sea Harvest and FoodC. Sea and Sources of EnergyD. Sea Exploring Technology.7. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. man hasn’t completely made use of the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC. harvesting rice in the sea will be made possibleD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor8. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ships.C. To argue that man should use steamships.D. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.9. According to the author, technology is important because ______.A. resources on land are running short in ten yearsB. man can use it to explore the deeper seaC. it is a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used it to explore the sea10. According to the author, when will the problems to explore the deeper sea largely be solved?A. In the next generation.B. By the end of the 20th century.C. In the near future.D. By the middle of the 21st century.Passage 3estions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a p art in determining a person’s smoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11. What do we know from the first paragraph ?A. More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA.C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country.12.What factors determine a person’s smoking habits ?A. Age, income and education.B. Age, sex and income.C. Occupation, income and sex.D. Occupation, income and education.13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ?A. City people are less likely to smoke.B. People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C. Men with higher income tend to smoke.D. Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.14.What is the smoking situation for women ?A. The situation is quite the same for women as for men .B. Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C. There are more women smokers with low incomes.D. Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ?A. The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B. The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C. High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D. Farmers’ children tend to smoke more.Part ⅡV ocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D .

北京地区成人英语三级考试真题

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2016.05.07Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage i s followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of t hem there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Ans wer SheetPassage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a lar ger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Governor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will became the second state, afte r Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other to bacco products. More than 100 cities in the U.S., including New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.A week ago, the California Assembly approved the measure，which-in addition to raising the age limit-treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products，expands smoke-free areas，increases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly’s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased th e age to by tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying（游说）from tobacco interests. The measure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in policing p eople’s personal choices. “I don’t smoke. I don’t encourage my ch ildren to,”said Republican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. “But they’re adults, and it’s our job to treat our citizens as adults,”But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legall y purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. “This will save the medical system millions of dollars,”said Democratic Assem blyman Jim Wood. (76) “It will save thousands of lives.” A 2015 s tudy by the Institute of Medicine “found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nationwide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today’s teens reached adulthood. I n addition, there would be 223,000 fewer premature(过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer.”1. Which of the following is the first state to raise smoking age to 21?A. California.B. Hawaii.C. New York.D. Washington.2. The California law includes all the following measures EXCEPT ____A. enlarging no-moking areasB. allowing counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettesC. increasing smoking bansD. punishing parents who encourage their children to smoke3. The word policing in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.A. enrichingB. controllingC. understandingD. protecting4. Who is against the bill?A. Governor Jerry Brown.B. Assemblyman Donald Wagner.C. Assemblyman Jim Wood.D. The mayor of San Francisco.5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for the passage?A California Lawmakers Vote to Raise Smoking Age to 21B. San Francisco Increased the Age to Buy Tobacco Products to 21C. Hawaii has Already Raised the Age to buy tobaccoD.A California Bill Faces Opposition from Many RepublicansPassage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Dr. James Barry was the first woman in England to go to medical school. When she was growing up, women could not go to medical school. (77) So how did she become a doctor? She simply pretended that she was a man.No one knows Dr. Barry’s real name, her birth date, or her family’s background. Some records show that she was born in 1795 in London. Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at theUniversity of Edinburgh.James Barry’s classmates made fun of her because she didn’t have a beard and she was only five feet tall. But no one thought she was a girl. At het age of 20, James Barry graduated from the University of Edinburgh as a Doctor of Medicine. She was one of the youngest students to complete her studies. Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later, she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the army physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Everyone admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. (78) At that time. England had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was soon known as the best doctor and surgeon in the governor’s daughter, and later she became the governor’s personal doctor. People admired Dr Barry, but she also had a reputation as a troublemaker. If people talked about her high voice or tiny figure, she became very angry. She was an excellent swordsman, and she started fights often.6. According to the passage, Dr. Barry was made fun of because she _____.A. had a low voiceB. had a funny beardC. was tallD. was short7.

The word swordsman in paragraph 4 probably means _____.A. someone who is skilled at fighting with a swordB. someone who is skilled at fighting with a gunC. someone who often fights with other peopleD. someone who often makes trouble for other peoplePassage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage: Chokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes (路面坑洼). The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a re cent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the s treet in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was g oing to do something about the pothole problem in my city,”Chokwe says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez. Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks, “When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted(突出显示) in red,”Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you”Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city’s311 call system, so i t uses information already stored in a database,”Chokwe says. (79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems-which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined th at focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype (原型)。

The colleges have cither comple tely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2011.11.05PartⅠReading Comprehension （30%）Directions：There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A，B，C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage：The reflective towers of New York City， which is on the Atlantic migrating （迁徙的）route ，can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass，” said urel， an architect.（76）“It can be a perfect mirror in certai n lights，and the larger the glass，the more dangerous it is.” About 90，000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often，they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds，after habitat（栖息地）loss，with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.（77）As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade，so，too，have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council，a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings，will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process.There are no easy fixes，however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet（紫外线的）signals，but they are still in their infancy. Covers，dot patterns，shades and net are the main options available.Often，only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don't necessarily have to treat every window，” urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.” The Jacob Convention Center， which has been undergoing alterations，the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns.1. What is the main idea of the passage？A. New York is a city of glass towers.B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds.C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings.D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States.2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds？A. Climate changeB. Habitat lossC. Lack of foodD. Crashing into buildings.3. What does the word “fixes” in the third paragraph probably mean？A. ChoicesB. ExplanationsC. SolutionsD. Developments4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.A. Dot patternsB. ShadesC. NetsD. Covers5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage？A. In many cases，the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes.B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes.C. About 90，000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year.D. Unfortunately，glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages.Passage 2Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage：Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R.，and they live in a world where amazing innovations（革新）are common. The current 18-year-olds，after all，were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford；Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital（数字的），they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship （企业家才能）education，in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation，which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses，noted that more than 50，000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two-and four-year campuses—up from just 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell ，a Kauffman vice president，says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence，which used to be found only in business schools. Now，the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical school，and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is th e programs，”she says. “We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own，students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas，writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and，often，market. In their spare time，students in agricultural economics at Purdueinvent new uses for bean；industrial design majors at Syracuse，in special laboratory，create wearable technologies.（78）The entrepreneurship movement has its critics，especially among those who see college as a time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don‘t think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national need，” says Daniel S.Greenberg，author of Science for sale：The perils，Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A.Schlesinger，Babson College's president，says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is “an age-old argument”6. When Google and Facebook were established，the founders were still_____.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage，what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education？A. To prepare students for future academic lifeB. To prepare students to find opportunities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare student to develop interpersonal skills.8. The word “prototype” in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean_____.A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S.Grennberg think of entrepreneurship education？A.

So，in a new paper，two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical American regrets most. In telephone surveys，Neal Rose，a psychologist and professor of marketing at the School of Management at Northwestern Universtiy，and Mike Morrison，a doctoral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois，asked 370 Americans，aged 19 to 103，to talk about their most notable regret .Participants were asked what the regret was，when it happened，whether it was a result of something they did or didn't do，and whether it was something that could still be fixed.The most commonly mentioned regret involved romance （浪漫的事）（18%）——lost loves or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second （16%），whit people still feeling badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported regrets involved career （13%），education （12%），money（10%） and parenting（9%）。

北京成人三级英语真题及答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试真题(A卷)Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions:There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage1Questions1to5are based on the following passage: According to a recent survey,employees in many companies today work longer hours than employees did in1979.They also take shorter vacations than employees in1979.It seems that Americans are working harder today than ever before.Or are they?A management consultant.Bill Meyer,decided to find out.For three days,he observed an investment banker hard at work.Meyer wrote down everything the banker did during his long workday. At the end of the three-day period,Meyer reviewed the banker's activities with him.What did they find out?They discovered that the man spent80percent of his time doing unnecessary work. For example,he attended unnecessary meetings,made redundant (多余的)telephone calls,and spent time packing and unpacking his two big briefcases.(76)Apparently,many people believe that the more time a person spends at work,the more he or she accomplishes.When employers evaluate employees,they often consider the amount of time on the job in addition to job performance.Employees know this. Although many working people can do their job effectively during a regular40-hour work week,they feel they have to spend more time on the job after normal working hours so that the people who can promote them see them.A group of headhunters(猪头)were asked their opinion about a situation.They had a choice of two candidates for an executive position with an important company.The candidates had similar qualifications for the job.For example,they were both reliable.One could do the job well in a40-hour work week. The other would do the same job in an80-hour work week just as well.According to a headhunting expert,the80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job.The time this candidate spends on the job may encourage other employees to spend more time at work, too.Employers believe that if the employees stay at work later, they may actually do more work.However,the connection between time and productivity(生产率)is not always positive.(77)In fact,many studies indicate that after a certain point,anyone's productivity and creativity begin to decrease.Some employees are not willingto spend so much extra,unproductive time at the office.Once they finish their work satisfactorily,they want to relax and enjoy themselves.For these people,the solution is to find a company that encourages people to do both.1.What is the main idea of this passage?A.Many people work long hours but do not always do a lot of work.B.Most people can get more work done by working longer hours.C.Most Americans work80hours a week,and some work even longer.D.People can make more money by working longer hours.2.The management consultant wanted to find out______.A.how hard the investment banker worked during his work hoursB.when people spent time doing unnecessary work in their officeC.if people needed vacation after working hard for a certain period of timeD.whether Americans were really working harder than they had done before3.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.The more time a person spends at work,the more he or she accomplishes.B.Employers do not judge their employees'job performanceaccording to the amount of working time.C.Some people work more than40hours a week in the hope of getting promotion.D.All employees are willing to spend extra time at work.4.The80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job because employers believe______.A.that he is more reliableB.his example would lead other employees to work longer hoursC.he has better qualificationsD.he could encourage other employees to do a better job5.The expression“to do both”in the last paragraph is______.A.to finish their work satisfactorily and relax and enjoy themselvesB.to pay attention to both performance and productivityC.to work long hours and have short vacationsD.to relax and enjoy themselves quite frequently Passage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:Many private institutions of higher education around the country are in danger.Not all will be saved,and perhaps not all deserve to be saved.There are low-quality schools just as there are low-quality businesses.We have no obligation to save them simply because they exist.But many thriving institutionsthat deserve to continue are threatened.They are doing a fine job educationally,but they are caught in a financial difficulty,with no way to reduce rising costs or increase revenues(收入)significantly.Raising fees doesn't bring in more revenue,for each time fees go up,the enrollment(注册人数)goes down,or the amount that must be given away in student aid goes up.(78)Schools are bad businesses,whether public or private,not usually because of bad management but because of the nature of the business.They lose money on every customer, and they can go bankrupt either from too few students or too many students.Even a very good college is a very bad business. It is such colleges,thriving but threatened,that I worry about. Low enrollment is not their chief problem.Even with full enrollments,they may go under.Efforts to save them,and preferably to keep them private,are a national necessity.(79) There is no basis for arguing that private schools are bound to be better than public schools.There are plentiful examples to the contrary.Anyone can name state universities and colleges that rank as the finest in the nation and the world. It is now inevitable that public institutions will be dominant, and therefore diversity(多样性)is a national necessity. Diversity in the way we support schools tends to give us a healthy diversity in the forms of education.In an imperfectsociety such as ours,uniformity of education throughout the nation could be dangerous.In an imperfect society,diversity is a positive good.Eager supporters of public higher education know the importance of keeping private higher education healthy.6.In the passage,the author asks the public to support_____.A.private higher education in generalB.public higher education in generalC.high-quality private universities and collegesD.high-quality state universities and colleges7.According to the passage,schools are bad businesses because of____.A.the nature of schoolB.poor teachersC.bad managementD.too few students8.The phrase“go under”in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to_____.A.have low feesB.get into difficultiesC.do a bad job educationallyD.have low teaching standards9.Which of the following statements is TRUE?A.There are many cases indicating that private schools are superior to public schools.B.The author thinks diversity of education is preferable touniformity of education.C.A high-quality university is always a good business.D.Each time fees are raised,the enrollment goes up.10.In the author's opinion,the way that can save private schools lies in____.A.full enrollmentB.raising feesC.reducing student aidD.national support Passage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:The fourth-graders at Chicago's McCormick Elementary School don't know Chinese is supposed to be hard to learn.For most, who speak Spanish at home,it's becoming their third language. They've been hearing and using Chinese words since nursery,and it's natural to give a"ni hao"when strangers enter the classroom,“It's really fun!”says Miranda Lucas,taking a break from a lesson that includes a Chinese interview with Jackie Chan.“I'm teaching my mom to speak Chinese.”The classroom scene at McCormick is unusual,but it may soon be a common phenomenon in American schools,where Chinese is rapidly becoming the hot new ernment officials have long wanted more focus on useful languages like Chinese, and pressure from them—as well as from business leaders, politicians,and parents—has produced a quick growth in thenumber of programs.Chicago city officials make their best effort to include Chinese in their public schools.Their program has grown to include3,000students in20schools,with more schools on a waiting list.Programs have also spread to places like Los Angeles,New York City,and North Carolina.Supporters see knowledge of the Chinese language and culture as an advantage in a global economy where China is growing in importance.“This is an interesting way to begin to engage with the world's next superpower,”says Michael Levine,director of education at the Asia Society,which has started five new public high schools that offer Chinese.“Globalization has already changed the arrangements in terms of how children today are going to think about their careers.The question is when,not whether,the schools are going to adjust”(80)The number of students learning Chinese is tiny compared with how many study Spanish or French.But one report shows that before-college enrollment(报名人数)nearly quadrupled between1992and2002,from6,000to24,000.Despite the demand, though,developing programs isn't easy.And the No.one difficulty,everyone agrees,is having enough teachers. Finding teacher"is the challenge,"says Scott McGinnis,an academic adviser for a language institute and a Chinese teacherfor15years at the college level."Materials are easy in comparison.Or getting schools funded."11.The best title for this passage might be______.A.Next Hot Language to Study:ChineseB.Next Hot Language to Study:SpanishC.Next Hot Language to Study:FrenchD.Chicago Is the Place to Learn Chinese12.The most difficult thing to do is finding______.A.enough textbooks for the Chinese programsB.enough money for the Chinese programsC.enough teachers for the Chinese programsD.enough students for the Chinese programs13.We learn from the passage that______.A.Scott McGinnis has been a Chinese teacher for15yearsB.Jackie Chan is a Chinese teacher at McCormick Elementary SchoolC.Chicago officials are required to learn ChineseD.Scott McGinnis is good at giving his opinions on everything14.According to the passage,all the following statements are true EXCEPT______.A.the number of students learning Chinese is smallB.Chinese programs have found their way in several major cities in the U.S.ernment officials don't like the pressure from business leaders and parents to start Chinese programsD.China is becoming more and more influential in the world15.The word“quadrupled”in the last paragraph is close in meaning to“multiplied by______”.A.three timesB.four timesC.five timesD.six timesPart II Vocabulary and Structure(30%)Directions:In this part there are30incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.16.The driver was at_____loss when_____word came that he was forbidden to drive for speeding.A.a;/B.a;the C the;the D./;/17.My uncle's house in the downtown area is much smaller than ours,but it is twice_____expensive.A.asB.soC.tooD.very18.This magazine is very_____with young people,who like its content and style.A.familiarB.popularC.similarD.particular19.The art show was_____being a failure;it was a greatsuccess.A.far fromB.along withC.second toD. regardless of20.Health problems are closely connected with bad eating habits and a_____of exercise.A.limitckC.needD.demand21.In our daily life,everyone fails every now and then.It is how you react that makes a_____.A.developmentB.differenceC.progressD. point22.The hotel was awful!_____,our room was far too small.Then we found that the shower didn't work.A.To begin withB.After allC.In realityD.

About 2.8 million cases were treated inemergency department,and approximately800,000 seniors went on to be hospitalized.More than 27,000 falls led to death. (76) And the problem is getting more and moreserious.“ Older adult falls are increasing and,sadly,often indica te the end of independence,” said Dr.TomFrieden.The falls are preventable,Frieden stressed.He said individuals, families and health care providers can take steps to resistthe trend.Dr.Wolf-Klein is a medical professor in NewYork.She said one concern is that seniors who have experienced a fall alone at home don’ t tell anyone. When thathappens,prevention efforts don ’ t begin and they ’ re at risk for additional fallsthat lead to broken bones and brain injuries.“ Elderly patients tend not to report f alls to their families,or even doctors.A fall is a very frightening thing that you keep quiet about. They think if theymention it,they are afraid that they will move to a nursing home or need assistantsto help out in the house,” said Wolf-Klein.It ’ s also a status issue and may make someone feel that they’ re weaker than they really are,she explained.Whensomeonedoes fall and hurt themselves,they ’ reoften never the same, Wolf-Klein said.“ You can develop chronic(慢性的)problems.After a fall, a percentage of the population will never return to walking around.People used to taking the subway, now they’ re in a wheelchair, or they may needhelp going to the bathroom.They become frailer and lose independence,” she said.1.Which of the following is TRUE?A.In 2014, older adult falls caused 7 million injuries.B.In 2016, Americans fell 29 million times.st year, 2.8 million Americans had emergency treatment.st month, more than 27,000 older Americans were hospitalized.2.From the passage we learn that older adult falls ___.A.Are decreasingB.Can ’ t be avoidedC.Must be treated in hospitalsually imply the end of independence3.The word frailer in Paragraph 5 probably means ___.A.

But Sheridan CommunitySchools is the first school district in Indiana to be completely solar-powered.The district finished installing solar panels(太阳能板 ) for all three of its schoolsin 2016. Some of the panels can turn to fallow the sun across the sky.Sheridan ’ s solar push is part of a trend. In 2008, fewer than 1,000 schoolsused solar power. By 2014, there were 3,727 schools with solar panels in the US.This data comes from a report by the Solar Foundation,an organization that promotes the use of solar power Roxie Brown, a program director there, says that the numberof schools with solar panels has continued to rise since 2014.(77)Solar power has someobvious advantage over other energy sources.Sunlightis a renewable(可再生的 )resource,which means it won ’ t run out.Solar panels don ’ t harm the environment. Also sunlight is free. So by using solar power, schools cansave money on energy costs over time.But switching to solar power isn’ t always easy Solar panels can be expensiveto install. Sheridan Community Schools had to borrow money to pay for its solartransition. (78)The panels also take up space. But for many schools, going solaris worth is.The use of solar energy can also help students learn about electricity andenvironmental issues.Teacher at schools that use solar power often incorporate it into their science lessons. The kids talk about it in the classroom. Then they canlook at it in action. According to Brown, the educational impact of solar panelsit“ the most compelling reason” for schools to install them.Brown hopes the panels will give Sheridan students a global perspective.“ Theworld is bigger than the boundaries of their school district,” he says. “ They ’ re doing things to help the world as a whole.”6.Sheridan Community Schools coasts of __ schools.A.

But the books shewas starting at school were starting to get on her nerves. She enjoyed Where theRed Fem Grows and The Shiloh series, found in so many primary school classrooms,were all about white buys or dogs-or white boys and their dogs. Black girls, likeMarley, were almost never the main character.What she was noticing is actually a much bigger issue: fewer than 10 percentof children’ s books released in 2015 had a black person as the main character,according to a yearly analysis by the Cooperative Children’ s Book Center. InNovember2015,Marley set out to gather1,000books with black girls as protagonists(主角 ). Her campaign called” #1000BlackGirlBooks” was a big success. (79) She far exceeded her goal and collected more than 10,000 books!” Through my campaign,I want to give kids a stronger sense of identity.” Marley says.(80)” The biggest thing I’ ve learned is that kid’ s voices need to be heard.”In the future, Dias wants to be the editor(编辑 ) of her own magazine. She isalready making the steps toward having a successful and meaningful career At 11,she ’ s aware of the racism in the publishing industry.Like the television and movies,the publishing industry does not represent black girls or other people of color in positive ways. The whitewashing(漂白 ) in this industry extend beyond not having people of color as characters.In2012, white menwrote 88% of the book reviews.In2013,only about2% of the books were about black characters. Then if there are people of color in the books, the publishers attemptto whitewash people of color on the covers.However, Dias is making it a little easier for other black girls searching fora character that is just like them.Her project is a positive step toward young black girls seeing and experiencing their lives in books.11.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Main Characters of Popular BooksB.The #1000BlackGirlBooks CampaignC.Whitewashing in the Publishing IndustryD.Further Reading for Kids and Teenagers专业知识分享...WORD 格式整理12.
