Mother: You're your boss. Sometimes we just make things harder than necessary.Daughter: I'm not sure.Mother: Now, look in the mirror and be glad. If you don't like what you see, change it. Make the solution simple!Daughter: I will try!Long Conversation 216-20 A C B B DScripts:M: Michelle? Why are you dressed up like this?

Then, once I have my famous husband and a beautiful house, I'm going to use my fame to help others across the world. I'll do charity work with starving children in Africa!M: Oh please, if you really cared about helping people you'd sign up for charity organizations that help feed the hungry. You just want to be famous! You want to have your picture on the front cover of magazines every time you go out to get a coffee in your silk sleeping gowns!W: Not true! I don't care about those stuff – though I certainly wouldn't mind being famous for my excellent fashion sense. And don't make fun of me! As a volunteer right now, I could work for weeks and only help a few people at a time. But once I'm famous, I'll be able to make such a big difference!

新视野第三册‎3单元测试(含答案)Part 1 Readin‎g Compre‎h ensio‎n (Multip‎l e Choice‎) (每小题:4 分)Direct‎i ons: Read the follow‎i ng passag‎e s carefu‎l ly and choose‎the best answer‎from the four choice‎s marked‎A, B, C and D. Questi‎o ns 1 to 5 are based on the same passa g‎e or dialog‎.So long as teache‎r s fail to distin‎g uish betwee‎n teachi‎n g andlearni‎n g, they will contin‎u e to undert‎a ke things‎for childr‎e n that childr‎e n can only do for themse‎l ves. Teachi‎n g childr‎e n to read is not passin‎g readin‎g on to them. It is certai‎n ly not endles‎s hours spent in activi‎t ies about readin‎g. Dougla‎s insist‎s that "readin‎g cannot‎be taught‎direct‎l y and school‎s should‎stop trying‎to do the imposs‎i ble."Teachi‎n g and learni‎n g are two entire‎l y differ‎e nt proces‎s es. They differ‎in kind and functi‎o n. The functi‎o n of teachi‎n g is to create‎the condit‎i ons and the climat‎e that will make it possib‎l e for childr‎e n to devise‎the most effici‎e nt system‎for teachi‎n g themse‎l ves to read. Teachi‎n g is also a public‎activi‎t y: it can be seen and observ‎e d.Learni‎n g to read involv‎e s all that each indivi‎d ual does to make sense of the world of printe‎d langua‎g e. Almost‎all of it is privat‎e, for learni‎n g is an occupa‎t ion of the mind, and that proces‎s is not open to public‎examin‎a tion.If teache‎r and learne‎r roles are distin‎g uisha‎b le, how can teachi‎n g aid the child in the quest for knowle‎d ge? Smith has one princi‎p al rule for all teachi‎n g instru‎c tions‎. "Make learni‎n g to read easy, which means making‎readin‎g a meanin‎g ful, enjoya‎b le and freque‎n t experi‎e nce for childr‎e n."When the roles of teache‎r and learne‎r are seen for what they are, and when both teache‎r and learne‎r fulfil‎l them approp‎r iatel‎y, then much of the pressu‎r e and feelin‎g of failur‎e for both is elimin‎a ted. Learni‎n g to read is made easier‎when teache‎r s create‎anenviro‎n ment where childr‎e n are given the opport‎u nity to solve the proble‎m of learni‎n g to read by readin‎g.1.The proble‎m with the readin‎g course‎as mentio‎n ed in the firstparagr‎a ph is that ______‎__.A. it is one of the most diffic‎u lt school‎course‎sB. too much time is spent in teachi‎n g about readin‎gC. studen‎t s spend endles‎s hours in readin‎gD. readin‎g tasks are assign‎e d with little‎guidan‎c e2.The teachi‎n g of readin‎g will be succes‎s ful if ______‎__.A. teache‎r s can enable‎studen‎t s to develo‎p their own way ofreadin‎gB. teache‎r s can improv‎e condit‎i ons at school‎for the studen‎t sC. teache‎r s can devise‎the most effici‎e nt system‎for readin‎gD. teache‎r s can make their teachi‎n g activi‎t ies observ‎a ble3.The word "examin‎a tion" at the end of Paragr‎a ph 3 mostprobab‎l y means "______‎__".A. inquir‎yB. observ‎a tionC. contro‎lD. suspic‎i on4.Accord‎i ng to the passag‎e, learni‎n g to read will no longer‎be adiffic‎u lt task when ______‎__.A. childr‎e n become‎highly‎motiva‎t edB. teache‎r and learne‎r roles are identi‎c alC. teachi‎n g helps childr‎e n in the search‎for knowle‎d geD. readin‎g enrich‎e s childr‎e n's experi‎e nce5.The main idea of the passag‎e is that ______‎__.A. teache‎r s should‎do as little‎as possib‎l e in helpin‎g studen‎t slearn to readB. teache‎r s should‎encour‎a ge studen‎t s to read as widely‎aspossib‎l eC. readin‎g abilit‎y is someth‎i ng acquir‎e d rather‎than taught‎D. readin‎g is more compli‎c ated than genera‎l ly believ‎e dQuesti‎o ns 6 to 10 are based on the same passag‎e or dialog‎. Societ‎y usuall‎y tends to focus on the negati‎v e side of inner-city school‎s. Many people‎like to stereo‎t ype (模式化) these school‎s which, while these genera‎l statem‎e nts may be true in some cases, tend to be worse most of the time. People‎think that the studen‎t s of these school‎s receiv‎e inferi‎o r educat‎i ons. My school‎, an inner-city school‎named St. Ignati‎u s, is regard‎e d as one of the best in the state. People‎also believ‎e that violen‎c e occurs‎on a daily basis, both in the school‎itself‎and in the nearby‎city. I cannot‎even rememb‎e r a seriou‎s fight at St. Ignati‎u s. People‎who think that the teache‎r s at inner-city school‎s lack love for their job worsen‎this typica‎l stereo‎t ype even furthe‎r. My teache‎r s not only had a love for teachi‎n g, but they were also able to cultiv‎a te a love for learni‎n g in their studen‎t s.Take Mrs. Borron‎i, my Spanis‎h teache‎r, for exampl‎e. She would often take time out of her class to tell her studen‎t s about the numero‎u s activi‎t ies after class with which we should‎get involv‎e d. She loved her job so much that she stayed‎after school‎every day to modera‎t e activi‎t ies such as "Amnest‎y Intern‎a tiona‎l" (anintern‎a tiona‎l organi‎z ation‎that protec‎t s human rights‎) and the Spanis‎h Club. Her studen‎t s, includ‎i ng me, joined‎all of the clubs which she modera‎t ed just becaus‎e she made them so intere‎s ting.After readin‎g all of this, most people‎would argue that St. Ignati‎u s should‎not be consid‎e red a true "inner-city school‎". While this may hold some truth, I am arguin‎g that my life was greatl‎y enrich‎e d simply‎becaus‎e of the school‎'s locati‎o n in the middle‎of Clevel‎a nd, as oppose‎d to a poor suburb‎a n area.6.What do people‎often think negati‎v ely about?A. Inner-city school‎s.B. Stereo‎t ypes.C. St. Ignati‎u s.D. Violen‎c e.7.What can the author‎never rememb‎e r seeing‎at St. Ignati‎u s?A. Amnest‎y Intern‎a tiona‎l.B. A seriou‎s fight.C. A Spanis‎h club.D. Inferi‎o r studen‎t s.8.What would Mrs. Borron‎i do after school‎?A. Give Spanis‎h classe‎s.B. Tell studen‎t s about activi‎t ies.C. Guide studen‎t s in specia‎l groups‎.D. Help studen‎t s love learni‎n g.9.Why might a reader‎of this articl‎e not view St. Ignati‎u s as areal inner-city school‎?A. It is not in the middle‎of the city.B. It is in a poor suburb‎a n area.C. It enrich‎e d the author‎'s life.D. It might be better‎than others‎.10.How does the author‎feel about inner-city school‎s?A. The stereo‎t ypes about them are not at all true.B. They are not necess‎a rily all bad, as they can be good.C. They are much poorer‎than those in the suburb‎s.D. The studen‎t s there are more enligh‎t ened.Questi‎o ns 11 to 15 are based on the same passag‎e or dialog‎. Before‎going to high school‎, I had a very simple‎view of life. I usuall‎y did not think about the subjec‎t s of crime, povert‎y, or homele‎s sness‎. As far as I knew, these things‎did not exist. The area around‎my school‎forced‎my eyes open as early as the first day of school‎. On the long bus ride throug‎h the city, I saw homele‎s s dogs walkin‎g the street‎s. I also clearl‎y recall‎seeing‎a homele‎s s person‎pickin‎g throug‎h a trash can for the first time ever. The povert‎y of the area around‎my school‎made me see how truly lucky I was. I now began to apprec‎i ate everyt‎h ing which had been handed‎to me in life. In the long run, this led me to put a lot more faith in God becaus‎e of all that He had given me. I starte‎d going to religi‎o us servic‎e s more often. This also indire‎c tly led to myinvolv‎e ment in the commun‎i ty around‎the school‎.Studen‎t s' lives become‎enrich‎e d simply‎by attend‎i ng an inner-city school‎. When a person‎is expose‎d to city life, many differ‎e nt advant‎a ges can be gained‎. For someon‎e who had lived in the suburb‎s all his life, such as myself‎, a new style of living‎can be experi‎e nced. This alone expand‎s one's views of life in genera‎l. The religi‎o us aspect‎of my life grew, I was easily‎able to get involv‎e d in commun‎i ty servic‎e projec‎t s, and I became‎much more aware of the danger‎s which exist in the city. Going to school‎in the city helped‎me to overco‎m e the simple‎views I once had, and I am now better‎prepar‎e d to take on the challe‎n ges which await me in life.11.What sort of school‎does the author‎go to?A. A religi‎o us school‎.B. A high school‎.C. A commun‎i ty school‎.D. A school‎for poor people‎.12.What did the author‎begin to realiz‎e after she starte‎dattend‎i ng her school‎?A. The bus ride to her school‎was long.B. Crime, povert‎y, and homele‎s sness‎really‎existe‎d.C. Homele‎s s people‎often eat out of the trash.D. Homele‎s s people‎live with their homele‎s s dogs.13.Why does the author‎think she is lucky?A. She has a better‎life than many other people‎.B. She is a studen‎t at a very good school‎.C. She can learn a lot by studyi‎n g in the city.D. She is involv‎e d in her commun‎i ty.14.Where does the author‎live?A. In the inner city.B. On the street‎s.C. In the suburb‎s.D. At her school‎.15.How does the author‎feel about inner-city school‎s?A. They are very danger‎o us.B. They are religi‎o us.C. They are prepar‎e d.D. They are very good in ways.11.

Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: Read the following passage(s); carefully and do the multiple-choice questions.(10 points)Text 1Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present types.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion(拥挤). One proposed solution to this problem is the autom ated highwaysystem.When the auto enters the highway system, retractable(可伸缩的)arm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer(蜂鸣器)that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway. (285 words)21. One significant improvem ent in the future car will probably be ________.A) its power source B) its driving systemC) its monitoring system D) its seating capacity22. What is the author's main concern?A) How to render automobiles pollution-free.B) How to make smaller and safer automobiles.C) How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D) How to develop an automated subway system.23. What provides autos with electric power in an automated highway system?A) A rail. B) An engine.C) A retractable arm. D) A computer controller.24. In an autom ated highway system, all the driver needs to do is ________.A) keep in the right laneB) wait to arrive at his destinationC) keep in constant touch with the computer centerD) inform the system of his destination by phone25. What is the author's attitude toward the future of autos?A) Enthusiastic. B) Pessimistic. C) Optimistic. D) Cautious.Text 2What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at someschool subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to rem ember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs.If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job.Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. (303 words)26. Which of the following best sums up the first paragraph?A) The importance of doing well at school.B) Using school performance to help to choose a career.C) The importance of being good at all subjects.D) The indirect value of schoolwork.27. The writer thinks that for a student to have a part-time job is probably ______.A) a waste of time that could have been spent on studyB) useful for his future workC) a good way to earn extra moneyD) a good way to find out his weak points28. According to the passage, if a student's school record is not good, he ______.A) will be a complete failure in his future workB) will not be able to find a suitable jobC) will regret not having worked harder at schoolD) may do well in his future work29. Which subject is supposed to have no direct value for jot hunting?A) Mathematics. B) English. C) Technical Drawing. D) History.30. The whole passage centers on ______.A) choosing a career according to what one is skilled inB) acquiring knowledge by working hard at schoolC) finding one's strong and weak pointsD) developing one's abilities useful in school workText 3As a Canadian bilingual (双语的) teacher, I agree that the Canadian bilingual schools have been successful in producing functionally bilingual students. However, Mr. Whelpton's suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers.Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because the y "understand and accept the objective of making English the language of the classroom" which is a rather sterile motive. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centred manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton's third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills and others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Hence the concept of co-operative learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they co-operate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information. (280 words)31. How would you describe the writer's style?A) The passage is written in an academic style.B) The passage is written in a journalistic style.C) The passage is written in a personal style.D) The passage is written on the basis of widespread research in the areA)32. How would you describe the writer's attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programmes?A) Balanced. B) Unenthusiastic. C) Supportive. D) Critical.33. In paragraph 1 the writer ________.A) agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentB) agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton's argumentC) disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentD) is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton's argument34. In paragraph 2 "sterile" is closest in meaning to________.A) uninformative B) unusual C) stereotypical D) uninspiring35. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A) because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB) because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the sam e levelC) because the students can use their first language freelyD) because they work towards real life goalsText 4If sustainable competitive advantage depends on workforce skills, American firms have a problem. Human-resource management is not traditionally seen as central to the competitive survival of the firm in the United States. Skill acquisition is considered an individual responsibility. Labor is simply another factor of production to be hired rented at the lowest possible cost much as one buys raw materials or equipment.The lack of importance attached to human-resource management can be seen in the corporate hierarchy. In an American firm the chief financial officer is almost always second in command. The post of head of human-resource management is usually a specialized job, off at the edge of the corporate hierarchy. The executive who holds it is never consulted on major strategic decisions and has no chance to move up to Chief Executive Officer (CEO). By way of contrast, in Japan the head of hum an resource managem ent is central usually the second most important, after the CEO, in the firm's hierarchy.While American firms often have the vast amounts spent on training their work forces, in fact, they invest less in the skills of their employees than do either Japanese or German firms. The money they do invest is also more highly concentrated on professional and managerial employees. And the limited investments that are made in training workers are also much more narrowly focused on the specific skills necessary to do the next job rather than on the basic background skills that make it possible to absorb new technologies.As a result, problems emerge when new breakthrough technologies arrive. If American workers, for example, take much longer to learn how to operate new flexible manufacturing stations than workers in Germany (as they do).the effective cost of those stations is lower in Germany than it is in the United States. More time is required before equipm ent is up and running at capacity, and the need for extensive retraining generates costs and creates bottlenecks that limit the speed with which new equipment can be employed. The result is a slower pace of technological change. And in the end the skills of the bottom half of the population affect the wages of the top half. If the bottom half can't effectively staff theprocesses that have to be operated, the management and professional jobs that go with these processes will disappear.36. Which of the following applies to the management of human resources in American companies?A) They hire people at the lowest cost regardless of their skills.B) They see the gaining of skills as their employees’ own bu siness.C) They attach more importance to workers than to equipment.D) They only hired skilled workers because of keen competition.37. What is the position of the head of human resource managem ent?A) He is one of the most important executives in the firm.B) His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced.C) He is directly under the chief financial executive.D) He has no say in making important decisions in the firm.38. The money most American firms put in training mainly goes to________.A) workers who can operate new equipmentB) technological and managerial staffC) workers who lack basic ground skillsD) top executives39. What's the main idea of the passage?A) American firms are different from Japanese and German firms in human-resource management.B) Extensive retraining is indispensable to effective human resource management.C) The head of human resource management must be in the central position in a firm's hierarchy.D) The human resource management strategies of American firms will affect their competitive capacity.40. According to the passage, the decisive factor in maintaining a firm's competitive advantage is ___________.A) the introduction of new technologiesB) the improvem ent of workers' skillsC) the rational composition of professional and managerial employeesD) the attachment of importance to the bottom half of the employeesIII.

Just because my father does business in Mexico I’m supposed to learn Spanish –on top of everything else I have to learn? It’s just too much! Andif I don’t spend enough time on the golf course, I won’t remain a first-class player on the golf team. I still don’t see why I should learn a language that’s so hard for me. There are no verb tenses on the golf course or in Web design!M: Listen Miranda, I’ve known your father since we were students at university 20 years ago –and have known you since you were a little girl. Of course, there are no verb tenses in golf orWeb design. But I am giving you good advice. Please listen.W: Yes, of course, you’re like my favorite uncle.M: Your brain isn’t like a cup that has water flowing over its edge when it is full. Instead, it’s likea muscle.

Test for Unit 3 (Keys for reference)Part I. Listening ComprehensionLong conversation 11-5 B A C B CScript:Sandra: Tim, how's your new job going?Tim: Pretty well, thanks, Sandra.Sandra: How are you finding your new boss?Tim: He's quite energetic, determined and always knows how to bring competitive drive to the team. Sandra: Would you rather have him or your old boss back?Tim: My former boss never knew how to listen to her team members. She's always so bossy. This boss is much better. He always recognizes the skill of each member and how they can be used.Sandra: That's really a born leader.Tim: I can't agree with you more.Sandra: How about your new co-workers? Are they friendly to you?Tim: They are all pretty easy-going. We know the importance of getting along with each other. Sandra: Do you miss your old co-workers?Tim: Of course. I spent so much time at my old workplace that I got to know them all very well. They were like family to me.Sandra: Do people in different departments get along with each other?Tim: Definitely. Since we work together in teams, we have to get along with each other.Sandra: Do you like working with people from different departments?Tim: Yes, it helps me appreciate different opinions, especially when there is a conflict of ideas. Sandra: Do you like this teamwork?Tim: Sure! It's much better than my last one.Long Conversation 26-10 D C A B DScriptM: If you were looking for a flatmate, what would you like to know about them?W: For me, an important question is, "Do you keep yourself to yourself, or do you tend to be around alot?"M: What are you trying to find out?W: I suppose I'm seeking a balance. The last thing I want is a person who comes in and goes straight up to their room, and whom I never see again until the next morning. You know, I'm quite sociable, and I like having friends around.M: Yeah.W: But on the other hand, I don't want a flatmate who's always there, not giving me any personal space. So yeah, I'd like someone who is quite sociable but not overly so.M: I can understand that, and I suppose another important question is about cleanliness.W: Yes, something like, "Are you a tidy person?"M: What answer would you like to hear?W:I'd like them to say, "Oh yes, extremely!" I really don't want to live with someone who is untidy, someone who just leaves their stuff all over the place. That would drive me crazy.M: What about money?W: It can be a problem. I had a flatmate who used to say, "I know I have to pay the electricity bill, but can I pay it next week?" She always promised to pay, but then she never did.M: Oh yeah. You need to know whether they can afford the rent.W: But I wouldn't ask, "Could you tell me how much you earn?" I think I'd mention that the rent needs to be paid in advance. So, I'd ask,"Can you pay three months' rent in advance?" and then see what they say. M: That sounds like a good idea!Section BPassage 111-15 C D B C ANow, sports teams win because they practice. But you can only practice if you have the same members over time. And so you can think of teaming. Sports teams embody the definition of a team, the formal definition. It's a stable, bounded, reasonably small group of people who are interdependent in achieving a shared outcome. You can think of teaming as a kind of pickup game in the park, in contrast to the formal, well-practiced team. Now, which one is going to win in a playoff? The answer is obvious.So why do I study teaming? It's because it's the way more and more of us have to work today. With 24/7 global fast-paced operations, crazy shifting schedules and ever-narrower expertise, more and more ofus have to work with different people all the time to get our work done. We don't have the luxury of stable teams. Now, when you can have that luxury, by all means do it. But increasingly for a lot of the work we do today, we don't have that option.One place where this is true is hospitals. This is where I've done a lot of my research over the years. So it turns out hospitals have to be open 24/7. And patients, they're all different. They're all different in complicated and unique ways. The average hospitalized patient is seen by 60 or so different caregivers throughout his stay. They come from different shifts, different specialties, different areas of expertise, and they may not even know each other's name. But they have to coordinate in order for the patient to get great care. And when they don't, the results can be tragic.Passage 216-20 B C C C BScriptsLiving in a community means we're likely to encounter disputes with our neighbors from time to time. Disputes can range from trivial matters, such as noise complaints, to more serious issues like property damage. Here are some tips for handling such situations:Get to know each other. Being a good neighbor doesn't mean you have to take family vacations together. It could be as simple as knowing your neighbors well enough to say "hello" or perhaps occasionally borrowing things like a cup of sugar or a gardening tool. All these actions can help build trust and understanding. Issues are much more likely to occur among strangers than among even casual acquaintances.Head off problems before they become problems.If you are going to throw a party, visit all neighbors who might be affected and offer them a card with your phone number. If they find the noise intolerable or if other problems occur, your neighbors can call you directly instead of involving the police.Communicate your concerns clearly. Tell your neighbors what's bothering you - don't assume they know what the problem is. Be open and direct, not passive-aggressive. Ask for their opinions and, whenever possible, suggest a solution that reaches a middle ground or demonstrates your willingness to compromise. Stay cool and remain positive, even if your neighbors do not.Involve more neighbors. See if anyone else on your block is experiencing similar issues - they may be willing to help you resolve the situation together. If some of your neighbors have a good relationshipwith the person causing problems, consider having them join the conversation when you talk it out.Bottom line? Resolving disputes with our neighbors is all about effective communication.Remember, the goal isn't to win an argument but to live in harmony with those around us.Section C (24年6月第一套真题中的新闻听力news 1 和news 3)News 121-22 B AScriptSix people had to move away from their home to another place after a fire broke out in a building on Main Street Saturday, officials said. Firefighters responded to the three-story building shortly after 1 p.m. for a reported structure fire, according to Norwalk Deputy Fire Chief Adam Markowitz.Markowitz said crews encountered heavy smoke coming from the second floor when they arrived. A team of about 25 firefighters then spent about 25 minutes extinguishing the flames. Officials described the structure as a mixed-use building that features commercial businesses on the first floor and residential on the second and third floors.Town records list four apartments in the building.[21]Due to smoke and heat damage, the four apartments were declared uninhabitable, and the six residents had to move to another place, officials said. No injuries were reported in connection with the fire.[22]The Norwalk Fire Marshal is investigating the cause and origin of the fire.News 223-25 D D DScriptGenetic researchers in China have made a clone of a star police dog. The clone was born in a laboratory in Beijing in December. Tests show that the clone and her mother are almost identical genetically. The mother dog helped solve multiple murders and many other crimes.[23]The clone has already performed better than traditionally bred dogs on several tests[24] If the clone continues to perform as well as expected, it could mean a huge reduction in the training time for police dogs, which usually takes about five years. The ultimate goal of scientists is to produce clones of talented police dogs that can be trained in months instead of years.[25] However, this goal is notyet possible due to the current costs of the technology.This is not the first time a clone has been made of a star police dog. In South Korea, six clones began working with the police in 2008.Part II. Banked Cloze1.C2. E3. B4. D5. A6. J7. E8. C9. G 10. FPart III. Reading ComprehensionPassage 1(24年6月第一套真题第二篇)1-5 B C D A CPassage 2 (选自U校园AI版第三单元的单元测试阅读题)6-10 C B C C APart IV. Translation1. The Old Town of Lijiang, located at the foot of Yulong Snow Mountain, is a town of scenic beauty, known for its history and culture. It is also one of China's well-preserved old towns of ethnic minority groups. With the boom in Lijiang's tourism, the Old Town of Lijiang is receiving a growing number of tourists from home and abroad. In December 1997, the Old Town succeeded in applying to be recognized as a World Cultural Heritage Site, becoming one of the first noted historical and cultural cities in China to be included on the World Cultural Heritage List.2. The most important thing we can learn from the past is that China and America stand to gain from cooperation and lose from confrontation. Although a great deal has changed in the world and in both countries, this valuable lesson still holds true today and must continue to guide our interactions. We must stay the course without any doubts. Exaggerating our competition out of all proportion would squeeze our space for cooperation. The right attitude is to focus on expanding our cooperation, which is in our mutual interest.Part V. Writing (略)。

新视野第三册2单元测试(含答案)Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题:4 分)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog. Summer is the ideal time of year for one of my favorite outdoor activities, hiking (徒步旅行). It is much more than just a great workout. You get to be outside of the confines of a gym and be together with nature. You breathe in the fresh, clean air while the city life you endured all week just fades away. You are suddenly transported somewhere else. You are suddenly in a place where you can appreciate the untouched, simplistic beauty of nature. The trees are green, the wild flowers are growing and the woods are filled with activity. Once you experience it, you're hooked.Whether hiking in the deserts of Arizona or the mountains of Alberta, you suddenly realize you are not alone and there is something much bigger at work. There is a realization that life is precious and you think deeply about your life.Another wonderful part of hiking is that you can participate at any level and it is, for the most part, free. It is a great way to escape the rat race, even during the week. If you have any problems you need to solve, hiking is really good for clearing your head and removing stress.If hiking sounds intimidating to you, it is essentially walking on a whole new level. Experts have spoken about the benefits of walking for years. Walking doesn't stress your legs as much as running and countless studies agree walking leads to weight loss and better health. It is good for your heart, reduces illness and has even been shown to enhance your thinking. So why wouldn't you want to do it?1.What makes hiking different from other forms of exercise?A. It is a great workout.B. It is a summertime activity.C. It is an activity that slows breathing.D. It is an exercise that is done outside.2.What disappears for someone who is hiking?A. Green trees.B. Beautiful nature.C. City life.D. Precious things.3.Once you take up hiking in nature as something you do, you________.A. feel much bigger than beforeB. love it and want to do it oftenC. wish you lived outside of the cityD. look for new hiking places, like Arizona4.How do you feel after you've begun hiking?A.

Another example of the dangers of a restricted diet may be seen in the disease known as "beri-beri" (脚气病), which used to affect large numbers of Eastern peoples who lived mainly on rice. In the early years of the 20th century, a Dutch scientist named Eijkman was trying to discover the cause of beri-beri. At first he thought it was transmitted (传送) by a germ (细菌). He was working in a Japanese hospital, where the patients were fed on rice which had had the external husk (壳) removed from the grain, called "white rice.”It was thought this would be easier for weak, sick people to digest.Eijkman thought his germ theory was confirmed when he noticed the chickens in the hospital yard, which were fed on scraps (碎片) from the patients' plates, were also showing signs of the disease. He then tried to isolate the germ he thought was causing the disease, but his experiments were interrupted by a hospital official, who ruled that the huskless polished rice was too good for chickens. The chickens should be fed cheap rice with the external covering still on the grain, called "brown rice."Eijkman noticed that the chickens began to recover on the new diet. He began to consider the possibility that eating brown rice somehow prevented or cured beri-beri—even that a lack of some ingredient in the husk might be the cause of the disease. Indeed this was the case. The element needed to preventberi-beri was shortly afterwards isolated from rice husks and is now known as Vitamin B. The white rice, though more expensive, was keeping alive the disease the hospital was trying to cure.6.From the context, what do you think the author mentionsin the paragraph that is just before this first paragraph?A. One example of the importance of vitamins.B. One example of the benefits of eating healthy foods.C. One example of the dangers of a restricted diet.D. One example of the benefits of various vitamins.7.The disease "beri-beri" ________.A. kills large numbers of Western peoplesB. is a vitamin deficiency diseaseC. is transmitted by diseased riceD. can be caught from diseased chickens8.The chickens Eijkman noticed in the hospital yard________.A. couldn't digest the huskless riceB. proved beri-beri is transmitted by germsC. were later cooked for the patients' foodD. were suffering from vitamin deficiency9.Huskless, white rice ________.A. was cheaper than brown riceB. was less beneficial to the body than brown riceC. was more beneficial to the body than brown riceD. cured beri-beri10.The ingredient missing from white rice ________.A. was Vitamin BB. did not affect the chickensC. was named the Eijkman vitaminD. has never been accurately identifiedQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog.A strict vegetarian is a person who never in his life eats anything derived from animals. The main objection to vegetarianism (素食主义) on a long-term basis is the difficulty of getting enough protein—the body-building element in food. If you have ever been without meat or other animal foods for some days or weeks (say, for religious reasons) you will have noticed that you tend to get rather weak physically. You are glad when the fast (禁食) is over and you get your reward of a delicious meat meal.Proteins are built up from about twenty food elements called "amino acids" (氨基酸), which are found in greater amounts in animal protein than in vegetable protein. This means you have to eat a great deal more vegetable than animal food in order to get enough of these amino acids. A great deal of the vegetable food goes to waste in this process and from the physiological (生理学的) point of view there is not much to be said in favor of life-long vegetarianism.The economic side of the question, though, must be considered. Vegetable food is much cheaper than animal food. However, since only a small proportion of the vegetable protein is useful for body-building purposes, a consistent vegetarian, if he is to gain the necessary 70 grams (克) of protein a day, has to consume a greater bulk of food than his digestive organs can comfortably deal with. In fairness, though, it must be pointed out that vegetarians claim they need far less than 70 grams of protein a day.11. A strict vegetarian ________.A. rarely eats animal productsB. sometimes eats eggsC. never eats any animal productsD. never eats protein12.We feel weak when we go without meat and other animalproducts _____.A. because we are reducing our food amountB. because we do not get enough proteinC. because vegetables do not contain proteinD. unless we take plenty of exercise13.Proteins are built up from ________.A. about twenty different foodsB. about twenty different vegetablesC. various fats and sugarsD. about twenty different amino acids14.Physiologically, life-long vegetarianism may not be goodbecause ______.A. it makes people very thinB. the body must process too much wasteC. the farmer loses moneyD. vitamin-deficiency diseases may result15.One thing in favour of vegetarianism is that ________.A. vegetable food is easier to digestB. animal food is less expensiveC. vegetable food is cheaperD. vegetable food contains more amino acids11.C 12.B 13.D 14.B 15.CPart 2 Cloze (with four choices provided)(每小题:1 分)Directions: Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices given for each blank.

新视野第三册4单元测试(含答案)Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题:4 分)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D. Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.In 1913, the United States government introduced a bold, new nickel. James Earle Fraser said his goal was to design a coin that would be "truly American." In his search for symbols, he found none more distinctive than the American buffalo. Choosing to show a Native American on the other side of the coin, Fraser said the new nickel had "perfect unity of theme."Production of "Buffalo" or "Indian Head" nickels began in February 1913. A single coining press at the Philadelphia Mint (造币厂) started turning out the nickels at the rate of 120 a minute. But after the first examples were introduced, The New York Times said they were "bad."Other critics said that the coin's "rough" surfaces would encourage counterfeiters (造假币的人). But the most serious complaint about the nickel had to do with its inability to stand heavy use. One coin collectors' magazine predicted that the slightest wear would remove the date and the words Five Cents "beyond understanding."In 1938, the Government staged a competition for a new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson. According to a news item of the day, the Department of Indian Affairs didn't receive a single complaint from Native Americans about the design change. Collectors didn't seem to mind either.1.In the eyes of Fraser, a __________ is the most distinctive.A. nickelB. buffaloC. Native AmericanD. unity of theme2.In the second sentence, Paragraph 2, the word "press" means________.A. publicationB. newspaperC. machineD. the act of pushing down3.The design of a buffalo was modified ________.A. because it was not able to stand heavy useB. because the words Five Cents were "beyondunderstanding"C. because the coin couldn't be pressed by the PhiladelphiaMintD. because the words were too high on the coin4.According to one collectors' magazine using a NativeAmerican and a buffalo was ________.A. a good ideaB. a bad ideaC. a perfect ideaD. a forced idea5.It seemed that the new nickel picturing Thomas Jefferson________.A. won much praise from collectorsB. caused strong protests from American IndiansC. was OK both to the collectors and American IndiansD. was praised both by the collectors and American Indians1.B2.C3.A4.B5.CQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog. Time passed and my cards sold well. My enthusiasm for the greeting card business grew quickly. All along, I had been drawing fantasy art: monsters, dragons, castles, etc. With the birth of my first son in 1980, the content of my work went through a pretty dramatic change.Fantasy went out of the window, and I began to illustrate reality.In the spring of 1983, we, The Mary Engelbreit Greeting Card Company, took our 12 little designs to New York to exhibit them at a national card show.I remember how big the show was. I just couldn't get over it. I had no idea there were so many different card companies. And it was exciting because our 12 little cards were getting a lot of attention in that huge place!I've been told one of the reasons we had so much success at that show is because my card style was different than anything else at the market. I typically draw complicated details and use deep colors and funny or meaningful quotations.By 1985, many greeting card publishers started noticing my art, and two of them approached me with licensing contracts.I have always believed if you choose a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life. If you ask about the mystery of my success, all I can say is this: to imagine is everything!6.Before the birth of her first son, Mary Engelbreit's cardsfocused on ________.A. realityB. daily lifeC. fantasy7.The New York show was so big that Engelbreit ________.A. couldn't walk through itB. couldn't believe itC. couldn't stay to the end of itD. couldn't understand it8.Engelbreit's cards were successful because ________.A. they were distinctive in styleB. they had a thank-you sentenceC. they had complicated detailsD. they were rich in color9. A couple of greeting card companies ________.A. presented Engelbreit with contractsB. asked Engelbreit to make her cards more distinctiveC. wanted Engelbreit to use more meaningful quotationsD. thought her cards were to complicated10.According to Mary Engelbreit, the key to success is________.A. devotionB. opportunityD. imagination6.C7.B8.A9.A 10.DQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog. In the early days of sea travel, seamen on long voyages lived exclusively on salted meat and biscuits. Many of them died of scurvy (坏血病), a blood disease which causes swollen gums, livid (铅色的) white spots on the flesh and general exhaustion. On one occasion, in 1535, an English ship arrived in Newfoundland with its crew seriously ill. The men's lives were saved by Iroquois Indians (易洛魁印第安人) who gave them vegetable leaves to eat. Gradually it came to be realized that scurvy was caused by something lacking in the sailors' diet. Captain Cook, on his long voyages of discovery to Australia and New Zealand, established the fact that scurvy could be warded off by the giving fresh fruit to the sailors.Nowadays it is understood that a diet which contains nothing harmful may yet result in serious diseases if certain important elements are missing. These elements are called "vitamins". Quite a number of such substances are known and they are given letters to identify them, A, B, C, D, and so on. Different diseases are associated with a lack of particular vitamins. Even a slight lack of Vitamin C, for example, the vitamin most plentiful in fresh fruit and vegetables, is thought to increase our chances of catching colds.The vitamins necessary for a healthy body are normally supplied by a good mixed diet, including a variety of fruit and green vegetables. It is only when people try to live on a very restricted diet, say, during the extended periods of religious fasting (斋戒), or when trying to lose weight, that it is necessary to supply the missing vitamins.11.Which of the following happens because of scurvy?A. People become hungry.B. People lose blood.C. People become livid.D. People feel pain in their gums.12.How would the sailors ward off scurvy on long trips?A. They took fresh fruit with them.B. They stopped in places to relax.C. They often found Indians to help.D. They ate vegetable leaves regularly.13.Which vitamin helps protect us against colds?A. Vitamin A.B. Vitamin B.C. Vitamin C.D. Vitamin D.14.What supplies all the vitamins we need to be healthy?A. Any one of the different sorts of green vegetables.B. Diets like those taken by religious people.C. Certain important elements known by letters.D. Mixed diets with different fruits and vegetables.15.When should people take vitamins?A. When wanting to be healthy.B. When joining a religion.C. When dieting to lose weight.D. When protecting against sickness.11.D 12.A 13.C 14.D 15.CPart 2 Cloze (with four choices provided)(每小题:1 分)Directions: Read the following passage carefully and choosethe best answer from the four choices given for each blank.Questions 1 to 20 are based on the following passage.What is behind the symbols of American civilization?

Reading Comprehension (25%)Directions: Read the following passages and choose the corresponding answer.Passage 1Some people have said aging is more a slide into forgetfulness than a journey towards wisdom. However, a growing body of research suggests that late-in-life learning is possible. In reality, education does an aging brain good.Throughout life, people's brains constantly renovate themselves. In the late 1960s, British brain scientist Geoffrey Raisman spied growth in damaged brain regions of rats through an electron microscope; their brains were forging new connections. This meant brains may change every time aperson learns something new.Of course, that doesn't mean the brain isn't affected by the effects of time. Just as height usually declines over the years, so does brain volume: Humans lose about 4 percent every decade starting in their 40s. But that reduction doesn't necessarily make people think slower; as long as we are alive and functioning, we can alter our brains with new information and experiences.In fact, scientists now suspect accumulating novel experiences, facts, and skills can keep people's minds more flexible. New pathways can strengthen our ever-changing mental structure, even as the brain shrinks.Conventional fixes like word puzzles and brain-training apps can contribute to mental durability. Even something as simple as taking a different route to the grocery store or going somewhere new on vacation can keep the brain healthy.A desire for new life challenges can further boost brainpower. Research about aging adults who take on new enterprises shows improved function and memory as well as a reduced risk of mental disease. Openness-a characteristic defined by curiosity and a desire for knowledge-may also help folks pass brain tests. Some folks are born with this take-in-the-world attitude, but those who aren't as genetically gifted aren't necessarily out of luck. While genes can encourage an interest in doing new things, a 2012 study in the journal Psychology and Aging found completing reasoning tasks like puzzles and number games can enhance that desire for novel experiences, which can, in turn, refresh the brain. That's why brain scientist Richard Kennedy says “It's not that old dogs can't learn new tricks. It's that maybe old dogs don't realize why they should.”1. What do some people think of aging adults?A. Their wisdom grows as time goes by.B. Their memory gradually deteriorates.C. They can benefit from late-in-life learning.D. They are likely to have mental health issues.2. What can we conclude from Geoffrey Raisman's finding?A. Brain damage seriously hinders one's learning.B. Brain power weakens slower than we imagine.C. Brains can refresh and improve with learning.D. Brains forge connections under new conditions.3. What is one thing that helps maintain the health of our brain even as it shrinks?A. Doing daily routines by conventional means.B. Avoiding worrying about our mental durability.C. Imitating old dogs' way of learning new tricks.D. Approaching everyday tasks in novel ways.4. What does the author say can contribute to the improvement of brain function?A. Being curious and desiring knowledge.B. Being eager to pass brain tests at an old age.C. Rising to life's challenges and avoiding risks.D. Boosting immunity to serious mental diseases.5. What is the finding of the 2012 study in the journal Psychology and Aging?A. Wishing to solve puzzles enhances one's reasoning power.B. Playing number games unexpectedly stimulates one's memory.C. Desiring new experiences can help to renovate the brain.D. Learning new tricks should not be confined to old dogs only.Passage 2Virtual reality technology has recently taken the world by storm, with VR headsets becoming a widely welcomed consumer product. While home adoption has largely been driven by the gaming industry, those within other fields, including the travel industry, are increasingly realizing and exploring the technology's potential, especially as a marketing tool.Businesses operating within the travel industry have been especially quick to adopt virtual reality technology and for good reason. Typically, their customers are looking to purchase experiences, rather than products, and virtual reality offers an effective way for marketers to give them a taste of what they can expect.Travel customers usually require lots of information before they book a hotel room. For instance, they need to read descriptions, view images, watch videos, look at customer reviews, or seek opinions on social media. However, this process can be shortened significantly through the intelligent use of virtual reality. One of the best examples of virtual reality in action within the travel industry is using it to provide virtual tours of hotels and hotel rooms. The key benefit is that it allows potential customers to experience what the hotel looks like before they arrive, offering more transparency than words and images.Virtual reality is also offering hotels, travel agents, and other businesses within the tourism industry the opportunity to provide prospective customers with a virtual travel experience. This means that users will be able to sample some of the main attractions that are likely to draw them to a location in the first place. For instance, a hotel in Paris may provide a virtual experience of what it is like at the top of the Eiffel Tower. Similarly, a hotel near a theme park may be able to provide a virtual roller-coaster experience. The primary benefit of this is to sell rooms, flights, and travel products more effectively by focusing on the experiences they can provide.Some companies have taken a step further, using VR to enhance the entire booking process. This innovation allows travelers to visit a destination, search for flights, walk through a plane to select their seats, check out different hotels, and pay for their entire trip –all within a VR environment. These advancements in VR technology offer a more immersive and interactive experience compared to traditional methods.While many exciting developments are happening in virtual reality and the travel and tourism industry, it's essential to approach this technology with a critical eye and use it responsibly. By doing so, we can create a world in which travel is more accessible, more sustainable, and more enriching for all.6. How has virtual reality technology impacted the travel industry?A. It has made travel experiences more expensive.B. It has completely replaced traditional hotel booking methods.C. It has provided a new marketing tool for businesses.D. It has made travel more sustainable.7. Why have businesses in the travel industry been quick to adopt virtual reality technology?A. Because of the desire to reduce travel spending.B. Because of the customers' preference for experiences over products.C. Because of the pressure from the gaming industry.D. Because of the need for more transparency in the booking process.8. What is the primary benefit of offering a virtual travel experience?A. Reduction in the need for customer reviews.B. Replacement of the traditional computer mouse.C. Enhanced ability to sell rooms and travel products.D. Increased reliance on descriptions and videos.9. How does VR technology affect the travel booking experience according to the passage?A. It allows travelers to physically visit destinations before booking.B. It makes the booking process less imaginative and more tiresome.C. It offers a more immersive and interactive booking experience.D. It simplifies payment methods and offers suggestions for activities.10. According to the author, what is essential when approaching virtual reality in the travel industry?A. A critical eye and responsible use.B. Increasing reliance on social media.C. Quick adoption by various industries.D. Integration with traditional booking methods.Part IV. Translation(20%)Directions: Translate the following paragraphs into English.1. 丽江古城坐落在玉龙雪山(Yulong Snow Mountain)脚下,是一座风景秀丽的历史文化名城,也是我国保存完好的少数民族(ethnic minority groups)古城之一。

新视野英语网上自主学习测试答案

新视野英语网上自主学习测试答案Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)(每小题:分)Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. Language is a way to communicate with each other. We started to learn language when we were born. However, people are used to speaking their native language, so immigrants are having many problems between the first generation and the second generation because they don't have the same native language. Also, the second generation is losing their identity. Especially in America, there are many immigrants that came from different countries to succeed in the States. Because they suffer in lots of areas such as getting a job and trying to speak English, they want their children to speak English, not only at school, but also at home in order to be more successful. Because of this situation, their children are losing their ethnic identity and, even more, they are ignoring their parents whose English is not very good.I think most immigrants are trying to preserve their native language in their new country, but this doesn't help very much in getting a good job. My aunt didn't teach Korean to her children in order to help them succeed in the US; shedid so, hopefully, to help them establish a Korean identity. Though the second generation is born in the new country, they often get confused about their identity. My cousinstold me that when they visited Korea a few years ago, they felt different from other Koreans. They could even feel itjust strolling around the street because they wore different clothes.We must realize that language is important and valuablefor many reasons. Immigrants should make an effort not to be ignored by their children and to make their children understand their heritage by teaching them the parents' language. This is important in helping the second generation establish their identity.1. Which people are having trouble with language?A. Natives.B. People of the 2nd generation.C. People when born.D. Immigrants.2. Why are children ignoring their parents?A. Children have lost their identity.B. Parents cause children to suffer.C. They speak different languages.D. They have different job levels.3. The author's aunt taught Korean ________.A. so she could preserve her languageB. so she would have a job in AmericaC. to help children succeed in their new countryD. to help children keep their Korean identity4. The author's cousins felt ________.A. they were not similar to people in KoreaB. they could not get a job in AmericaC. it was all right to look and feel differentD. it was important to keep their identity5. A proper title for this passage is ________.A. The Identity of the Second GenerationB. Korean Problems in AmericaC. Learning a New Language in the USD. Keeping Your Culture in a New LandQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage. Yinlan looked at the people sitting around the table and smiled with satisfaction. Everyone in her family was there—her children, her grandchildren, and her newgreat-grandson, just one month old. Her whole family had come to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival (节日).Two days after the Harvest Moon Festival, Yinlan died peacefully in her sleep. Her family was sad but at the same time grateful. They felt happy that they had been able to celebrate the Harvest Moon Festival with her one last time. Everyone said it was remarkable that Yinlan had died just two days after the holiday.Actually, the timing of Yinlan's death was not remarkable at all. Recently sociologists (社会学家) studied the death rate among elderly Chinese women in California. They discovered that the death rate drops 35 percent before the Harvest Moon Festival and then rises 35 percent. Sociologists believe that these changes in death rate show the mind's power over the body. The Harvest Moon Festival, when families gather, is important to elderly Chinese women. Apparently some women are able to postpone (推延) their deaths so that they can celebrate the festival one last time.The idea that people can postpone the time of their deaths is not new. Many families tell stories of a relative who held on to life until after an important event. The stories people tell, however, are just that: stories. They are not proof that people can postpone their deaths. The sociologists' work is important because the sociologists studied facts, not stories. The facts—the drop and rise in death rates—provethat people really can postpone their deaths.6. When did Yilan die?A. During the Harvest Moon Festival.B. Before going to sleep.C. Just before the Harvest Moon Festival.D. A couple days after the Harvest Moon Festival.7. The writer tells us the story of Yilan to let us know that_________.A. the Harvest Moon Festival is important to elderlyChinese womenB. Chinese families get together to enjoy the HarvestMoon FestivalC. families are often sad during the Harvest MoonFestivalD. people may be able to put off death for an importantevent8. Where did the study take place?A. China.B. Yilan's home.C. Festival grounds.D. California.9. What does the author describe as "not new"?A. The work of sociologists.B. Proof of postponing death.C. The Harvest Moon Festival.D. Stories of putting off death.10. What provides us with proof?A. The stories of family members.B. The numbers showing death rates.C. The important events.D. The postponing of death.Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Today's trumpet (喇叭,小号) is one of the world's oldest instruments. It is the result of many centuries of development. Although it looks nothing like the ones of old days, there are many similarities. All trumpets are hollow tubes (管) They are all blown. And they all use the player's lips to produce their basic sound.The trumpet developed as players and makers worked to improve its design, size, shape, material, and method of construction. They wanted to create an instrument that would produce a beautiful and attractive tone, enable the performer to play all the notes of the scale, extend the range higher and lower, make it possible to play more difficult music, and in general, be easier to play well. The remarkable way in which the modern trumpet achieves these goals is a measure of the success of all those who struggled to perfect this magnificent instrument.The trumpet is actually the leading member of an entire family of related instruments. There are trumpets of several different sizes, and in several different keys. There are cornets (短号), bugles (军号), flugelhorns (粗管短号), and a number of others that are all similar to the trumpet in the way they are made and played.The trumpet family is much more than a group of related instruments that can stir one with their sound, or narrow tubes of metal capable of producing a variety of musical sounds. It is a link to many different periods of history and to people of many cultures. From the use of trumpets inancient religious ceremonies to the part they play in modern rock bands, the trumpet family of instruments has much to tell about civilization and its development.11. How do trumpets all resemble each other?A. They require the same force when blowing them.B. They make the same sound when playing them.C. They use a player's lips to make a sound.D. They have the same size of hollow tube.12. Why did players and makers want to improve thetrumpet?A. They wanted an instrument that'd be easy to play.B. They wanted an instrument to play easy music.C. They wanted an instrument of different sizes.D. They wanted an instrument that looked attractive.13. What is the trumpet the leading member of?A. Trumpet family instruments.B. Remarkable instruments.C. Rock band instruments.D. Religious instruments.14. What is linked by the trumpet?A. Different cultures.B. Different bands.C. Different tubes.D. Different ceremonies.15. What can trumpets tell us a lot about?A. The sound of modern rock bands.B. The development of civilization.C. The different varieties of musical sound.D. The links between different people.Part 1 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice) (每小题: 4 分; 满分:60 分)小题得分对错我的答案客观1. 4 D D2. 4 C C3. 4 D D4. 4 A A5. 4 D D6. 4 D D7. 4 D D8. 4 D D9. 4 C C10. 4 B B11. 0 D C12. 4 A A13. 4 A A14. 4 A A15. 4 B BSubtotal: 56 老师评语:Part 2 Cloze (with four choices provided)(每小题:分)Directions: Read the following passage carefully and choose the best answer from the four choices given for each blank.Questions 1 to 20 are based on the following passage.Love is super?

As an important part of the American culture value system, "individualism" is admired by most American people. Americans view the family as a group whose primary purpose is to advance thehappiness of individual members. In contrast to many other cultures, the primary responsibility of the American family member is not to advance the family as a group, either socially or economically. What would be best for the family is not usually considered to be as important as what would be best for the individual.2. Filial piety is the basic code of ethics in ancient Chinese society. Chinese people consider filial piety as the essence of a person's integrity, family harmony, and the nation's well-being. With filial piety being the core of Confucian ethics, it has been the moral standard for the Chinese society to maintain the family relationship for thousands of years. It's undoubtedly a traditional Chinese virtue. The culture of filial piety is a complex concept, rich in content and wide in range.Part V. Writing (略)。
