Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question, there are four suggested answers 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.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs(外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do it –yourself surgery(手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step onit accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites that adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found ________.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land throughout BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ________.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders are ________.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually _______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C) The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D) In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产); that is , it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobilemanufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to help clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that ________.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD) all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is ________.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role in preventing pollutionD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from this passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Large- scale production in a large market brings certain advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes in easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making profit. Within the single market, the Community（欧共体）is making clearly strict European in doctrinal standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition poli cy serves toensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Businesses are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operations will soon be gone.In addition to creating to creating a favourable business environment, the commun ity’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-tern plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology （生物技术）and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of now outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created toprotect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has formed _______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the Community’sgeneral policy _______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods than imported goods on the market.B) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

One day he r eceived an invitation to dinner at the ruler’s palace. Very pleased, he went to tell his colleagues. They laughed and told him the meaning of the invitation. They had all been invited and each person who was invited has to bring with him a certain number of silverand gold coins. The number of coins varied according to the person’s position in the service of the government.My friend’s income was not high, so he did not have much to pay. Each person bound before the ruler, his gold went onto one hip, his silver went onto another hip, and in this way he paid his income tax for the year. This was a simple way of collecting income tax.The tax on property was also collected simply: The ruler gave a man the power to collect a tax from each owner of land or property in a certain area if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money. Of course the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler. The difference between the sum of money he collected and the sum of money he gave to the ruler was his profit.Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have justheard.11. What do we know about the speaker’s friend?12. What was the real purpose of the ruler’s invitation?13. What does the passage say about the tax collectors?Passage TwoAround the year 1000A. D. , some people from Northwest India began to travel westwards. Nobody knows why. After leaving their homes, they did not settle down again but spent their lives moving from one place to another. Their later generations are called the Romany people or Gypsies. There are Gypsies all over the world. And many of them are still traveling with no fixed homes. There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in Eastern Europe.Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews. And nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler’s death camps.Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing, and they often work in fairs and traveling shows.Traveling is very important to them and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsies children to go to school. And Gypsies are often unable to read and write. In some places, the education authorities try to arrange special traveling schools for Gypsy children so that they can get the same education as other children.Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.14. Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?。

For each question or statement there are 4 choicesmarked A, B, C and D Y our should make the correct choice and write thecorresponding letter on the Answer SheetTask 1There is probably no field of human activity in which our values and lifestyles are shown more clearly and strongly than they are in the clothes that we choose to wear. The dress of an individual is a kind of ―sign language‖ that communicates a set of information and is usually the basis on which immediate impressions are formed. Traditionally, a concern for clothes was considered to be on affair of females, while men took pride in the fact that they were completely lacking clothes consciousness(意识).This type of American culture is gradually changing as man dress takes on greater variety and color. Even as early as 1955, a researcher in Michigan said that men considered that the value of clothing in daily life was very important. W hite collar workers in particular viewed dress as a symbol of ability, which could be used to impress or influence others, especially in the work situation. The white-collar worker was described as extremely concerned about the impression his clothing made on his boss. Although blue-collar workers were less aware that they might be judged on the basis of their clothing , they recognized that any difference from the accepted pattern of dress would be made fun of by fellow workers.Since that time , of course, the patterns have changed: the typical white-collar worker may now be wearing the blue shirt, while the blue-collar worker may be wearing a white shirt; but the importance of dress has not become less. Other researchers in recent years have helped to prove its importance in the lives of individuals at various age levels and in different social and economic status groups.46. The passage tells us that__________.A. our values and lifestyles are in no field of human activityB. the clothes that we choose to wear have something to do with our values andlifestylesC. our values and lifestyles are from the sign languageD．the clothes we choose to wear depend on a set of information and immediateimpression47. Traditionally, people usually thought that_______.A. men cared very much for clothesB. women concerned greatly about what they wore while men didn’tC. both men and women paid great attention to their clothesD. neither men nor women showed interest in clothes48.White-collar workers pay great attention to their clothes because______.A. they extremely concern about the impression their clothes make on their bossesB. they know that people might judge them on the basis of their clothingC. they want to impress and influence othersD. they don’t want to be laughed at49. Which of the following is true?A. Blue-collar workers don’t care about their clothes.B. Blue-collar workers cared about their impression on other people.C. Blue-collar workers pay no attention to their clothes.D. Blue-collar workers often laugh at each other.50. The passage mainly suggests that _______.A．now men pay more attention to their clothesB．women always like beautiful dressesC．people have paid more and more attention to the importance of dress D．American culture is changing greatlyTask 2Some people give up trying to learn a foreign language. It can seem too much like hard work. But the problem comes when they go abroad on holidays and find they cannot communicate. How do they ask the way, or ask the price of something?Keith thinks he has the answer to this problem. ― I have got a machi ne which talks in different languages. I feel that I could go to any country in the world and converse with any foreigners,‖ he says. Keith is an inventor. His invention is an electronic machine which produces phrases in four different languages, French, German, Italian and English. Unlike the phrase books, this machine has a voice. It looks like a cassette recorder.Imagine you want to say, ― What time is next train for Munich?‖ in German. First, you find the right card for that question. Each card has four strips of tape on it, one for each language. The cards are small, and each one can store up to two hundred and forty words. Y ou run a pick up head along the tape and –hey presto!—a voice come out of the amplifier, asking the question. The person at the information desk may get a surprise, but you will get your answer!Keith hopes that an electronics company will buy his idea and develop it commercially to sell it to tourists. Meanwhile, he’s working on more new ideas. ―It’s really just a hobby for me. Some people like playing golf or tennis, but I like making new things.‖ He said.51. Why do some people have the trouble when they go abroad?A. Because they cannot use Keith’s machine.B. Because they don’t take enough money with them.C. Because the foreigners are unfriendly to them.D. Because they cannot make themselves understood when they meet foreigners.52. The sentence ―Keith thinks he has the answer to this problem.‖ in the 2nd paragraph tells us that ______.A. Keith can answer the question how to ask the way or the price.B. Keith has some problems in asking the way or the price.C. Keith thinks he can solve the problem about communication.D. Keith thinks he can solve all the problems when he goes abroad.53.

The electronic machine looks like a cassette recorder.D. The person at the information desk will answer the question from the machine.54. What does Keith want to do with his invention according to the passage?A. He wants to sell his invention to the foreigners.B. He wants to operate an electronics company.C. He wants to go abroad with his new machine.D. He wants to sell his idea of the machine to an electronics company.55. The main idea of the passage is probably that ________.A. it is necessary to learn foreign language nowB. Keith is going to surprise the person at the information deskC. learning foreign language is n o longer hard work with Keith’s new machine.D. communication with foreigners can be made easily with Keith’s new machine Task 3People landing at London’s Heathrow airport have something new to look at as they fly over Britain’s capital city. It is attr active, simple and little strange. The Millennium Dome (千僖穹顶) is a huge semi-circle of plastic and steel and it contains the largest public space in the world. It has been built to house an exhibition of all that is best in Britain life, learning and leisure.The Millennium Dome was designed was designed by Sir Richard Rogers, one of Britain’s most famous architects (建筑师). His work points the way to new development in building. Think of it as a giant symbol of the buildings in which we will all be living and working in the near future.Buildings are also a part of history. They express the culture of the times. Sir Richard Rogers is aware of this responsibility. While different designers have individual styles, their work also has a common style. That is, to express the values of the information age.What is ―information age‖ building? The dome is a good example. After the Millennium exhibition ends, it will be used for another purpose. Just as people no longer have ―jobs for life‖, modern buildings are desig ned for a number of different uses.Another Richard Roger’s building, the Pompidous Center in France, uses theidea that information is communication. Instead of being hidden in the walls, heating pipes and elevators are open to public view. The Pompidous Center is a very honest building. It tells you how it works.56. The Millennium Dome has been originally built to hold an exhibition ______.A. of different building designingB. of the finest things in BritainC. of everything that can draw the attention of peopleD. of recent development in information technology57. The sentence ―His work points the way to new development in building. (para.2)‖ implies that the designer Sir Richard Rogers ______.A. has developed a new set of building standardsB. is a pioneer architect of his ageC. strictly follows the tradition in his workD. is the father of modern architecture58. Sir Richard Rogers clearly knows that it is his duty to _______.A. make his buildings historic onesB. create something out of a unique styleC. house those people who will often change their jobsD. construct a building that can meet the change of the modern age59.

This short passage mainly tells us about_______.A. a few developments in house-buildingB. modern buildings of various stylesC. the unique contribution of a famous architectD. the common features of British and French buildingsTask 4When the earth was born there was no ocean. The gradually cooling earth was enclosed in heavy layers of clouds, which contained much of the water of the new planet. For a long time its surface was so hot that no moisture could fall without immediately being changed back into steam. This dense, constantly renewed cloud covering must have been so thick that no rays of sunlight could penetrate it. And so the rough outlines of the continents and the empty ocean basins were sculptured out of the surface of the earth in darkness, in a Stygian world of heated rock a nd swirling clouds and gloom.As soon as the earth’s crust cooled enough, the rains began to fall. Never have there been such rains since that time. They fell continuously , day and night, days passing into months, into years, into centuries. They poured into the waiting ocean basins, or fell upon the continental masses, and drained away to become the seas.61. When the earth came into existence, there was no ocean on the earth because of the _____________________________.62. We might infer from the passage that ― a Stygian world‖ most probably refers to___________________________________.63. The rain began to fall because the earth’s crust _________________________.64. An appropriate title for the passage mig ht be ―The ______________________ .‖65.The earth’s crust was less hot because ________________________ prevented thesunshine from penetrating it.Part Ⅳ Translation (35 points)(Ⅰ) Translate the following sentences from English into Chinese (4 points each for No.66 through No. 68; 6 points for No. 69 ; 18 points in all ).66.

江西专升本统考英语历年真题(2003-2012) 5
2003年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试试卷（120分钟）Part ⅠListening comprehension （20 points）(略)Part ⅡReading Comprehension （30 points）Directions:In this section there are four passages. Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and IrelandB) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through BritainD) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snakeB) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victimD) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards peopleB) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see themD) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your pathB) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quicklyD) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, th eir cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars. Automobile Company X will gobankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enou gh money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stop pollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its productsB) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher priceD) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutio nD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to cre ating a favorable business environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexiblyB) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a wholeD) brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34. The European Community has adopted some special measures to _______.A) make long-term development of industries possibleB) place some industries before other industriesC) open new markets in other countriesD) enable new technology to be used in manufacturing35. which of the following is likely to be the title of the passage?A) Advantages of a Single Large-scale MarketB) Development of European IndustriesC) Imports and Exports of European CommunityD) Policies of European CommunityPart Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: In this section there are 45 incomplete sentences.

That started a debate over the wisdom of spending billons of dollars to keep nearly 2 million people locked up. According to statistics, the United States ends 1999 with 1,983,084 men and women in prisons. That shows an increase nearly 840,000 prisoners during the 1990s and makes the United States the country with the highest prison population in the world. With the cost of housing a prisoner at about $20,000 a year, the cost in 1999 keeping all these prisoners behind bar is about $39 billion.Some experts argue that the money is well spent, saying the cost of keeping prisoners behind back doesn’t seem much in comparison to the cost of crime to society.

江西专升本英语历年真题（01年-11年）2001年江西省“专升本”英语统一考试试卷Part ⅠListening comprehension （20 points）(略)Part ⅡReading Comprehension （30 points）Directions:In this section there are four passages. Each of them is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A),B),C),and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage.By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder (奎蛇). In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs (外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery (手术) and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikesintensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the wa6y as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.21. Adders are most likely to be found _______.A) in wider parts of Britain and Ireland B) in Scotland but nowhere elseC) on wild land through Britain D) in the countryside in England22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ______.A) try to catch the snake B) not treat the bite yourselfC) not worry too much about the victim D) operate him as soon as possible23. We are told that adders _______.A) normally friendly towards people B) unlikely to bite except in self-defenseC) likely to attack people whenever they see them D) not afraid of human beings24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually ______.A) move out of your path B) take no notice of you at allC) disappear very quickly D) wait until you are close and then attack25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A) Adders are more likely to attack children than adults.B) The adder prefers to bite a person with a heavy body.C)The danger of adder bites is different from person to person.D)In most cases adder bites are more serious than other illnesses.Questions 26-30 are based on the following passages.Only the government can ensure that the American people have clean air and pure water. Congress must pass laws to stop manufacturers from polluting the air and water with the waste from their factories.Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business. For example, if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company. People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive ca rs. Automobile Company X will go bankrupt (破产); that is, it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials. It will then go out of business. Of course, no automobile company will make itself go bankrupt on purpose, and the pollution of the land and air and water will go on.But if the government says that all automobile manufacturers must make cars with air-pollution control devices, the cost of all manufacturers will be equal. So the government cannot let companies decide whether or not they want to stoppollution. The government must force manufacturers to clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to _______.A) change the anti-pollution standards for its products B) sell its products at a more expensive priceC) buy materials at a higher price D) pay more money to its workers27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that _______.A) manufacturers will not take care of pollution control on their own willB) few manufacturers are aware of the importance of air-pollution controlC) air-pollution control devices are more expensive than other devicesD) people like to buy cars that are equipped with pollution control devices28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.A) no manufacturer will go bankrupt for spending money on pollution controlB) less money will be spent in buying pollution control devicesC) manufacturers know how to control pollution more effectivelyD)all manufacturers have to take measures to control pollution29. The purpose of this passage is _______.A) to describe how a company can go bankruptB) to emphasize the urgent need of cleaning up the environmentC) to stress the importance of the government’s role In preventing pollutionD) to tell how difficult it is to keep the environment free from air-pollution30. What can be inferred from thin passage?A) Companies have not been given an equal chance to develop their business.B) A company will go bankrupt if its cars have to be installed with pollution control devices.C) The US government has not set up standards on pollution control for car producers.D) It is necessary to persuade producers to take effective pollution control measure.Questions 31-35 are based on the following passages.Large-scale production in a large market brings advantages: mass production helps to reduce the manufacturing costs of consumer goods and the single market also makes it easier to specialize. Together, these two considerations improve businesses’ chance of making profit.Within the single market, the Community (欧共体) is making clearly strict European industrial standards which help European industry compete with imported products and conquer new markets, as well as making high-quality products available to the consumer.The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests. At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.Business are being encouraged to operate outside the country in which they are based by measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so. The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operation will soon be gone.In addition to creating a favorable business environment, the community’s industrial policy is also concerned with developing specific strategies. The objective is to carry out long-term plans to develop industries such as the electronics industry, information technology, biotechnology (生物技术) and textiles. These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them, the training the workforce receives, and the development of new outlets. In short, a whole range of instruments will be created to protect the future of European technology.These projects will require extra funding at Community level for training, research and development and communications networks. The extra Community funding will be used as rationally as possible in a way which maximizes the benefit to European industry.31. The European Community has found ______.A) a single market to carry out mass productionB) the Community market to produce high quality goodsC) a large market to increase business with other countriesD) a new market to make it easier to get profits32. We can infer from the passage that the community’s general policy ______.A) helps the small firms to do business flexibly B) encourages big firms to conquer the small onesC) emphasizes the interest of the Community as a whole D)brings the customer more imported goods33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.A) there are more home produced goods that imported goods on the marketB) companies only have to pay one tax when operating in a member countryC) there are no more Europe-wide business operationsD) small companies are allowed to combine into larger ones34.

That started a debate over the wisdom of spending billons of dollars to keep nearly 2 million people locked up. According to statistics, the United States ends 1999 with 1,983,084 men and women in prisons. That shows an increase nearly 840,000 prisoners during the 1990s and makes the United States the country with the highest prison population in the world. With the cost of housing a prisoner at about $20,000 a year, the cost in 1999 keeping all these prisoners behind bar is about $39 billion.Some experts argue that the money is well spent, saying the cost of keeping prisoners behind back doesn’t seem much in comparison to the cost of crime to society. They also point out that the rise in the prisoner population in the 1990s coincided with (与……相一致) a steady drop in the US crime rates. It is reported that serious crime has decreased for seven years continuously. ―There are a noticeable number of people who don’t do crimes because they don’t want to go to prison,‖ they say.21. There is a heated debate among American expertsbecause _______.A) America has put 2million people in prison. B) the cost for housing a prisoner keeps risingC) billions of dollars has been spent on prisoners D) the prisoner population is the largest in the world22. From the first paragraph, we learn that ______.A) the number of prisoners in America is increasing B) America has the largest prison in the worldC) crime in America is getting much more serious D) it is easy for a person to be locked up in America23. In 1999 the government spent about $39 billion to __________.A) improve the prison conditions B) keep men and women in prisonC) build houses for prisoners D) maintain the prisons24. Some experts argue that it is necessary to spend the money because ______.A) crime will cost even more money to society B) the government can well afford the moneyC) the number of prisoners is not really large D) prisoner population decreased in the 1990s25. The author’s attitude towards the government’s policy is ______.A) negative B) positive C) doubtful D) unknown8848. net is a company that focuses heavily on e-commerce. Enter the homepage (主页) of 8848. net, and you can purchase your various goods via the Internet.The sales of 8848. net last month were 12.5 million yuan, equal to the turnover (营业额) of a middle-sized supermarket. The success of /doc/816923443.htmlindicates that e-commerce is reaching the public, challenging traditional shopping malls. Convenience has become the most important element in any commercial interaction. That's what online shopping offers.What 8848. net offers are 120 000 online goods, including books, software, computers, and electrical appliances. A Wangfujing department store in Beijing doesn't have so many items. What's more, there are about 4 million Internet fans in China. That means 8848. net is running 4 million chain stores. Traditional huge warehouses and personnel no longer seem to be necessary.More products and better services are provided, along with lower prices. It is said that /doc/816923443.htmlis now preparing to offer more up-to-date consumer goods, such as digital cameras, MP3 devices and IT (Information Technology) household appliances.8848’s product inf ormation is the most complete available on China's e-commerce networks. There are 200 000 pages of information on the firm's goods. Compared to the customers who sometimes find it impossible to choose among products because of the lack of information about online goods, the customers of 8848. net are satisfied. If a customer wants to purchase a book, he can easily find more than 20 related book reviews by experts and ordinary readers. That helps the customer to make a decision.26. From the passage, we can learn that e-commerce (Line1, Para.1) means_____.A) making use of a supermarket B) buying and selling on the InternetC) communication through /doc/816923443.htmlD) purchasing goods in a department store27. The successful sales of 8848. net show that_________ .A) commercial interaction is becoming more and more importantB) the net company is turning into a middle-sized supermarketC) online shopping has replaced the traditional shoppingD) people are starting to like online shopping28.

The author's purpose in writing this passage is to_______.A) advertise /doc/816923443.htmlB) describe e-commerceC) attract advertisers for /doc/816923443.htmlD) compare online and traditional shoppingWhy is it that the most connected we get, the most disconnected we felt? Every advance in communications technology is a setback (挫折) to the intimacy of human interaction. With email and instant, messaging all over the Internet, we can now communicate without seeing or talking to one another. With voice mail, you can conduct entire conversations without ever reading anyone. If my mother has aquestion, I just leave the answer on her phone.As almost every contact between human beings gets automated (自动的), the more people feel they are strangers to each other. You can’t even call a person to get the phone number of another person anywhere. Telephone assistance is almost always fully automated.Buying gasoline at the station? Why say good morning to the attendant when you can pay with your credit card and save yourself the bother of human contact?Making a deposit at the bank? Why talk to a clerk who might live in the neighborhood when you can just insert your credit card into the automatic contact?Pretty soon you won’t have the burden of making eye contact at the food store. Some chain stores are using a self-canner so you can check yourself out, avoiding those cold clerks who look at you and ask how you are doing,31. The first sentence of the passage shows that toady _________.A) people do not stay in one place all the time. B) people do not like to be familiar with others.C) people feel much more lonely than before. D) people have less time to enjoy themselves.32.

2012年江西省专升本统一考试统考英语模拟试题
2012年江西省“专升本”统一考试《统考英语》模拟试题Listening comprehension （20 points）(略)I. ReadingPassage 1Teaching involves more than leadership. Some of the teacher's time and effort is directed toward instruction, some toward evaluation. But it is the teacher as a group leader who creates an efficient organizational structure and good working environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place. A group that is totally disorganized, unclear about its goals, or constantly fighting among its members will not be a good learning group. The leadership pattern includes helping to form and maintain a positive learning environment so that instruction and evaluation activities can take place.On the first day of class, the teacher faces a room filled with individuals. Perhaps a few closely united groups and friendships already exist. But there is no sense of group unity, no set of rules for conduct in the group, no feeling of belonging. If teachers are successful leaders, they will help students develop a system of relationships that encourages cooperation.Standards and rules must be established that maintain order, ensure justice and protect individual rights, but do not contradict school policy. What happens when one student hurts another's individual rights? Without clear guidelines mutually agreeable to students, teachers, and administration, the classroom can become chaotic. Students may break rules they did not know existed. If standards are set without input from the class, students may spend a great deal of creative energy in mining the class environment finding ways to break rules.No matter how skillful the teacher is in uniting students and establishing a positive atmosphere, the task is never complete. Regular maintenance is necessary. Conflicts arise. The needs of individual members change. A new kind of learning task requires a new organizational structure. Sometimes outside pressures such as holidays, upcoming tests or athletic contests, or family troubles cause stress in the classroom. One task for the teacher is to restore a positive environment by helping students cope with conflict, change, and stress.1. This article is written mainly for the purpose of———————.A. providing information for teachingB. studying the teacher's behavior in the classroomC. comparing the teacher's behaviors with students'D. teaching and organizing a class2. The teacher, to some extent, is a leader because _______.A. he is responsible for a well-organized class and a good learning environmentB. he deals with students in the same way as a leader deals with peopleC. he should develop harmony among studentsD. he has to maintain order and give instruction and evaluation3. The teacher should do more than teach. It is his responsibility to ———————.A. create an organizational structure and a positive learning structureB. establish standards and rules students should followC. help students deal with conflict, change, and stressD. all of the above4. The following statements are true of the standards and rules to be establishedEXCEPT _______.A. the standards and rules should maintain orderB. the standards and rules should not violate school policyC. the standards and rules are accepted only by the teachers and administrationD. the standards and rules should ensure justice and protect students' individualrights5. Which of the following is NOT true?A. If the teacher well unites his students and creates a positive atmosphere, he thenwill complete his task.B. If guidelines are not acceptable both to students and teachers, the classroom canbe a mess.C. Outside pressures may cause stress among students.D. Students need the teacher just as sheep need a shepherd.Passage 2In the second half of each year, many powerful storms are born in the tropical Atlantic and Caribbean seas. Of these, only about half a dozen generate the strong, circling winds of 75 miles per hour or more that give them hurricane status, and several usually make their way to the coast. There they cause millions of dollars of damage, and bring death to large numbers of people.The great storms that hit the coast start as innocent circling disturbances hundreds-- even thousands - of miles out at sea. As they travel aimlessly over water warmed by the summer sun, they are carried westward by the trade winds. When conditions are just right, warm, moist air flows in at the bottom of such a disturbance, moves upward through it and comes out at the top. In the process, the moisture in this warm air produces rains, and with it the heat that is converted to energy in the form of strong winds. As the heat increases, the young hurricane begins to swirl in a counter-clockwise motion.The average life of a hurricane is only about nine days, but it contains almost more power than we can imagine. The energy potential of the heat released by a hurricane's rainfall in a single day would satisfy the entire electrical needs of the United States for more than six months. Water, not wind, is the main source of death and destruction in a hurricane. A typical hurricane brings 6- to 12-inch downpours resulting in suddenfloods. Worst of all is the powerful movement of the sea — the mountains of water movingtoward the low-pressure hurricane center. The water level rises as much as 15 feet above normal as it moves toward shore.6. An ordinary tropical storm is called a hurricane whenA. it begins in the Atlantic and Caribbean seasB. it has reached the coastlineC. it is more than 75 miles wideD. its winds reach 75 miles per hour7. What is the worst thing about a hurricane?A. The destructive effects of water.B. The heat it releases.C. That it lasts about nine days on the average.D. It's strong winds.8. The counter-clockwise swirling of the hurricane is brought about byA. the low-pressure area in the center of the stormB. the force of waves of waterC. the trade windsD. the increasing heat9. The word "downpour" in para. 3 means ______.A. heavy rainfallB. dangerous wavesC. the progress of water to the hurricane centerD. the energy produced by the hurricane10. In a hurricane _____ is/are the main cause of death.A. the energy and heat it releasesB. the strong windsC. downpoursD. the warmairPassage 3Each year in the never-ending cycle of death and regeneration, the rains sweep across southern Asia. Between June and October strange sea winds surge over the land, drenching(浸湿) the earth with torrential downpours. This is the monsoon - a familiar word oftentaken to mean a violent windstorm, but in fact referring to a tumultuous (狂暴的) seasonof recurring rains.The monsoon is close to the very soul of the people it touches-, it permeates (渗入)the lives of the people and effects everything they do. India is especially dominated byit For three months before the monsoon rains arrive, the heat is intense, unbearable: theearth itself is dead; fanners cannot work the stone-hard fields., bare subsistence (生存) is difficult. With the rains, everything suddenly changes - India bursts into life again; fields that seemed hopelessly barren turn green and grow wildly.The rich new season is one of beauty, but to the peasant it is a beauty shot throughwith possible disaster. Overflowing with the great rains, the Ganges River (恒河) moves relentlessly to the sea, hiding beneath its shining but deceptive calm the horror of fieldsand homes overcome by flood. The horror of flood and cyclone (旋风) rides always with the monsoon clouds when they come to redeem the land. The peasants have no resource but resignation.11. The monsoon is correctly described as a ______A. torrential downpourB. violent windstormC. season of recurring rainsD. violent thunderstorm12. The monsoon is said to be "close to the very soul of the people it touches" because ＿＿＿＿A. it plays a significant role in Asian religionsB. it is destructiveC. the people are resigned to itD. it affects all aspects of their lives13. The peasants consider the monsoon a bearer of_______.A. beautyB. fertilityC. dangerD. all of the above14. The peasant's reaction to the monsoon is _______.A. resignationB. hope that the next year will be betterC. JoyD. relief15. Implied but not stated _______.A. India is the only country affected by the monsoonB. monsoons seldom affect people in temperate climatesC. after the floods subside, the great heat will begin againD. the monsoon completely permeates the lives of peoplePassage 4What makes it rain? Rain falls from clouds for the same reason anything falls to earth. The earth's gravity pulls it. But every cloud is made of water droplets or ice crystals. Why doesn't rain or snow fall constantly from all clouds? The droplets or ice crystals in clouds are exceedingly small. The effect of gravity on them is minute (W' ^). Air currents move and lift droplets so that the net downward displacement is zero, even though the droplets are in constant motion.Droplets and ice crystals behave somewhat like dust in the air made visible in a shaft of sunlight. To the casual observer, they seem to act in a totally random fashion, moving about chaotically without fixed direction. But in fact dust particles are much larger than water droplets and they finally fall. The cloud droplet of average size is only 1/2,5oo inch diameter. It is so small that it would take sixteen hours to fall half a mile in perfectly still air, and it does not fall out of moving air at all. Only when the droplet grows to a diameter of 1/125 inch or larger can it fall from the cloud. The average raindrop contains a million times as much water as a tiny cloud droplet. The growth of a cloud droplet to a size large enough to fall out is the cause of rain and other forms of precipitation. This important growth process is called “coalescence”16. What is the main topic of the passage?A. The mechanics of rainB. The climate of North AmericaC. How gravity affects agricultureD. Types of clouds17. Why don't all ice crystals in clouds immediately fall to earth.?A. they are balanced by the pressure of rain droplets.B. The effect of gravity at high altitude is random.C. They are kept aloft by air currentsD. The heat from the sun's rays melts them.18. What can be inferred about drops of water larger than 1/125 inch in diameter?.A. They never occur.B. They are not affected by the force of gravityC. In still air they would fall to earthD. In moving air they fall at a speed of thirty-two miles per hour.19. In this passage, what does the term "coalescence” refer to?A. The gathering of small clouds to form cloudsa. The growth of droplets.C. The fall of raindrops and other precipitation.D. The movement of dust particles in the sunlight.20. What is the diameter of the average cloud droplet?A. 1/16 inchB. 1/125 inchC. 1/2,500 inchD. One millionth of an inchII Vocabulary and Structure21.

Jason was determined not to go against their father’s wishes but Mark was more adventurous than his brother. He loved experimenting and his aim was to become a scientist like his father.―Dad will be really mad if he finds out you’ve been playing with his new computer.‖ Jason said, ―He told us not to touch it.‖―He won’t find out.‖ Mark said, ―I’ll just have a quick look and shut it down.‖Mark had been scolded before for touching his father’s equipment. But his curiosity was difficult to control and this new computer really puzzled him.It was a strange-looking machine –one his dad had brought home from the laboratory where he worked. ―It’s an experimental model,‖ his father had explained, ―so don’t touch it under any circumstances.‖ But his father's warning only served to make Mark more curious. Without any further thought, Mark turned on the power switch. The computer burst into life and seconds later, the screen turned into colors, shifting and changing and then two big white words appeared in the center of the screen: ―SPACE TRANSPORTER.‖―Yes!‖ Mark cried excitedly, ―It’s a computer game. I knew it! Dad’s only been pretending to work. He’s really been playing games instead.‖ A new message appeared on the screen:―ENTER NAMESVOY AGER 1: …VOY AGER 2: …‖Mark’s fingers flew across the keyboard as he typed in both of their names.―INPUT ACCEPTED. START TRANSPORT PROGRAM. AUTO-RETRIEVE INITIATED（自动回收程序已启动）.‖The screen turned even brighter and a noise suddenly rose in volume.―I think we’d better shut it off, Mark,‖ Jason yelled, reaching for the power switch. He was really frightened.But his hand never reached the switch. A single beam of dazzling white light burst out of the computer screen, wrapping the boys in its glow (光芒), until they themselves seemed to be glowing. Then it died down just as suddenly as it had burst into life. And the boys were no longer there. On the screen, the letters changed.―TRANSPORT SUCCESSFUL. DESTINA TION（目的地）: MARS. RETRIEVE DATE: 2025.‖56．Why did Mark touch the computer against his father’s warning?A．He wanted to take a voyage. B．He wanted to practice his skillC．He was so much attracted by it.

B．They were sent to another planet.C．They were hidden in the strong light. D．They were carried away to another countryBA Book Review—The Snake-Stone by Berlie DohertyThe setting: Urban England (the cities), but also rural England (the countryside) including remote English villages.The theme: The main theme is a teenage search of self-discovery, in this case the search for a mother from whom the hero was separated at an early age. Its other concerns are love, getting on with others, being persistent and courageous and trying to deal with doubts, troubles and worries. As the book moves to a close, James’ swimming coach says to him: ―You are not like a kid obeying instructions any more. You are diving like a young man who knows where he is going.‖The characters:James is the hero of the story. He is a championship diver, and has a comfortable life with his foster parents (养父母). Yet he also has the qualities to take him on a long journey to find his birth mother. The other characters in The Snake-Stone, James’ parents, his diving instructor, best friend, the villagers, people he meets on his journey, are pictured realistically.The turning point: The turning point in the story comes while James’ foster parents are away in London, and he wonders about the identity of his birth mother. The only clue he has is a fossil, ―the snake stone‖ which she left behind along with a note on which she had written: ―Take good care of Sammie. It was written on a torn envelope with parts of an address still there.The journey: Instead of going to London, James decides to find his birth mother. With help from his geography teacher, James sets out for the remote country village where his mother might be found. James has painful, challenging, but also humorous and happy travels. The mother he finally meets, Anne, has a minor yet powerful voice in the novel. He comes to understand why she left him at a stranger’s door fifteen years before. Although the meeting is not long, it leaves him with a feeling of completeness. As a journey of self-discovery The Snake-Stone also provides its readers with a happy ending. Its hero says, on returning to his foster parents, ―I was home.‖61．What is the main theme of the novel?A．Life with foster parents. B．Life in the world of diving.C．A journey of self-discovery. D．A travel around the country. 62．What do the coach’s words in Paragraph 2 suggest?A．James is a successful diver. B．James is a hopeful swimmer.C．James is an outgoing young man. D．James is an independent young man. 63．The snake stone in the novel is .A．a stone with an address on it B．a clue left by the birth motherC．a gift from the swimming coach D．a fossil left by the foster parents 64．Which of the following is true about the novel?A．The story has a sad ending.B．The story takes place in the city of London.C．The characters are vividly described.D．The turning point comes after the hero meets his birth mother.65．It can be concluded that James’ journey is _________.A．worthwhile B．boring C．comfortable D．disappointingCBig Brothers Big Sisters is based on the simplicity and power of friendship．It is a program which provides friendship and fun by matching vulnerable young people (ages 7-17) with a volunteer adult who can be both a role model and a supportive friend.V olunteer tutors come from all walks of life—married, single, with or without children. Big Brothers and Big Sisters are not replacement parents or social workers. They are tutors: someone to trust, to have fun with, to talk and go to when needed.A Big Sister and Little Sister will generally spend between one and four hours together three or four times each month for at least twelve months. They enjoy simple activities such as a picnic at a park, cooking, playing sport or going to a football match. These activities improve the friendship and help the young person develop positive self-respect, confidence and life direction.Big Brothers Big Sisters organizations exist throughout the world. It is the largest and most well-known provider of tutor services internationally and has been operating for 25 years.Emily and Sarah have been matched since 2008. Emily is a 10-year-old girl who has experienced some difficulties being accepted by her schoolmates at school. ― I was pretty sure there was something wrong with me.‖Emily’s mu m came across Big Brothers Big Sisters and thought it would be of benefit to Emily by ―providing different feedback (反馈) about herself other than just relying on schoolmates to measure her self-worth.Sarah wanted to get involved in a volunteer program. ―I googled it and found out how to be a part of it. I thought it would be fun for me to get involved in making time to do something because sometimes it is all work and no play.‖Big Brothers Big Sisters has been of great benefit and enjoyment to both Emily and Sarah. They love and look forward to their time together and the partnership has certainly helped Emily be more comfortable in being the wonderful, happy and unique girl she is!66．What is the aim of Big Brothers Big Sisters?A．To offer students public services．B．To help students improve their grades．C．To organize sport activities for young people．D．To provide partnership and fun for young people．67．A volunteer is usually expected to work within a year for at least______．A．24 hours B．36 hours C．48 hours D．72 hours 68．According to Emily’s mother, this program may provide Emily with______．A．advice from her teachers B．a new way to assess herselfC．a new way to judge her schoolmates D．more comments from her schoolmates 69．Why did Sarah want to get involved in the program?A．She used to be a volunteer. B．She needed a part-time job.C．She felt a bit bored with her life. D．She wanted to get a challenging job. 70．Accordin g to the passage, ―vulnerable young people‖ are probably those who are _________.A．popular at school B．rather weak physicallyC．easily hurt emotionally D．confident in themselvesDFor those who make journeys across the world, the speed of travel today has turned the countries into a series of villages．Distances between them appear no greater to a modern traveler than those which once faced men as they walked from village to village. Jet planes fly people from one end of the earth to the other, allowing them a freedom of movement undreamt of a hundred years ago.Yet some people wonder if the revolution in travel has gone too far. A price has been paid, they say, for the conquest (征服) of time and distance. Travel is something to be enjoyed, not endured (忍受). The boat offers leisure and time enough to appreciate the ever-changing sights and sounds of a journey. A journey by train also has a special charm about it. Lakes and forests and wild, open plains sweeping past your carriage window create a grand view in which time and distance mean nothing. On board a plane, however, there is just the blank blue of the sky filling the narrow window of the airplane. The soft lighting, in-flight films and gentle music make up the only world you know, and the hours progress slowly.Then there is the time spent being ―processed‖ at a modern airport. People are conveyed like robots along walkways; baggage is weighed, tickets produced, examined and produced yet again before the passengers move to another waiting area. Journeys by rail and sea take longer, yes, but the hours devoted to being ―processed‖ at departure and arrival in airports are luckily absent. No wonder, then, that the modern high-speed trains are winning back passengers from the airlines.Man, however, is now a world traveler and cannot turn his back on the airplane. The working lives of too many people depend upon it; whole new industries have been built around its design and operation. The holiday maker, too, with limited time to spend, patiently endures the busy airports and limited space of the flight to gain those extra hours and even days, relaxing in the sun. speed controls people’s lives; time saved, in work or play, is the important thing—or so we are told. Perhaps those first horsemen, riding free across the wild, open plains, were enjoying a better world than the one we know today. They could travel at will, and the clock was not their master. 71．What does the writer try to express in Paragraph 1?A．Travel by plane has speeded up the growth of villages．B．The speed of modern travel has made distances relatively short．C．The freedom of movement has helped people realize their dreams．D．Man has been fond of traveling rather than staying in one place．72．How does the writer support the underlined statement in Paragraph 2?A．By giving instructions．B．By analyzing cause and effect．C．By following the order of time．D．By giving examples．73．According to Paragraph 3, passengers are turning back to modern high-speed trains because______．A．they pay less for the ticketsB．they feel safer during the travelC．they can enjoy higher speed of travelD．they don’t have to waste time being ―processed‖74．What does the last sentence of the passage mean?A．They could enjoy free and relaxing travel．B．They needed the clock to tell the time．C．They preferred traveling on horseback．D．They could travel with their master．75．What is the main idea of the passage?A．Air travel benefits people and industries．B．Train Travel has some advantages over air travel．C．Great changes have taken place in modern travel.D．The high speed of air travel is gained at a cost.第二卷（非选择题满分35分）第四部分写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）[1]Stamp collectors usually collect stamps only from certain countries or regions. The traditional method of stamp collecting is to organize stamp collection according to the issue dates.[2]Of course, there are many ____________. You can collect stamps relating to a particular theme. For example, sport lovers may choose the Olympic theme. They try their best to find Olympic stamps issued by various parts of the world every four years. Some of them may want to concentrate on even more specific sport activities like ball games, gymnasium, swimming, etc.[3]If you like astronomy, you may be keen on collecting stamps describing the stars, planets, spacecraft, spacemen, etc. once you have fixed the topic, you no longer need to bother about stamps other than the theme you selected. Then, you can put all your effort to collect the stamps around it.[4]China issues zodiac animal stamps (十二生肖邮票) every year to celebrate the Lunar New Year. They are extremely popular and a lot of collectors wait patiently for 12 years to collect a full set of them. Hong Kong’s Lunar New Y ear special stamp series began in 2000 with the Year of Dragon and the twelfth and final set was issued in 2011, the Year of Rabbit. Recently some Western countries have issued zodiac animal stamps, which attract a lot of attention as well.[5]You may choose any theme you like. However, you should bear in mind an essential point. The topic you choose should not be too narrow. Otherwise, it is very difficult to accumulate stamps around the topic. You will be depressed and even lose your interest in collecting stamps.[6]Collecting stamps with themes is especially popular among teenagers because there is a wide range of choices for them. The main challenge is how you organize and expand your collection around your theme.76．What is the main idea of the passage? （no more than 5 words）___________________________________________________________________________ 77．Fill in the blanks in Paragraph 2 with proper words．（no more than 5 words）Of course, there are many ____________________________________________. 78．What should you do if you want to collect a full set of zodiac animal stamps? （no more than7 words）_______________________________________________________________________ 79．List the three general themes in collecting stamps mentioned in the passage．（3 words）_______________________________________________________________________ 80．What does the word "them" （Line2, Paragraph6）probably refer to? （1 word）_______________________________________________________________________第二节写作（满分25分）某英文报社举办以―I Like Reading‖为主题的征文活动，你打算投稿。

It is like bringing the world to your mailbox.Fiona, a member of ,says,''I love swapping postcards!Although it seems quite time-consuming to pick one ,write it and post it ,it is the amusement of receiving a flash of sunshine or humor that makes it worthwhile.''51.The underlined word ''Swapping''in Paragraph 1 means ____ .A.exchangingB.designingC.collectingD.writing52.The first paragraph tells us that ____ .A.postcards are simple and beautifulB.Swapping postcards is a hobby for all peopleC.Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in contactD.Those who swap postcards have lost interest in the real word53.Which of the following is true of ?A.Its members should pay for registrationB.It was created for a particular purposeC.Its members can share different hobbiesD.It was started by a group of citizens54.When will your name be added to the list of people to receive postcards on ?A.After one confirms the reception of your postcard.B.After you e-mail your first postcard.C.After you register on the websiteD.After one receives your address55.In Fiona's eyes,swapping postcards is ____ .A.time-savingbor-savingC.worthwhileD.humorousPassage 3Listening is an extremely complex communicative activity. In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important.An effective listener should continuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information.But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation,he will fail to get the message.The skill to anticipate what is coming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener's familiarity with the theme（主题）of the message.It also depends on the listener's knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation.Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally much easier for us to take in the new information .Therefore,pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension .Before actual listening ,we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic ,discuss it with others ,and then read some related material and do some vocabulary work. If we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures,we are more likely to become effective listeners.Of course,readiness beforehand is not at all enough .Active thinking must take place all the way through .In fact ,we should always try to think ahead of the speaker.56.The passage is most possible taken from ____ .A.a novelB.a textbookC.a news reportD.a fashion magazine57.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.How to think actively in listening comprehension.B.How to develop specific readiness before listening.C.The skills in anticipating in listening comprehension.D.The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension.58.The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on ____ .A.the listener's emotionB.the difficulty of the messageC.the listener's communicative skillsD.The listener's familiarity with the topic59.In order to anticipate ,the first thing to do before actual listening may be ____ .A.do some vocabulary workB.think about the topicC.read some related materialD.discuss the topic with others60.What is the author's attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension?A.Neutral.B.Positive.C.Negative.D.Critical.Passage 4When men get stick，they act like babies ，say women .

What’s the reason for the different responses? The results of a survey suggest that women are too tough; they think heart problem are simply not a big deal . When Steven Erickson and his colleagues asked 348 men and 142 women who had been admitted to the hospital for a heart attack about their symptoms and medication (用药情况)，they found that even though the women had more symptoms and were taking more medicine they rated their disease as being no more severe than the men did .For more on women and heart disease ,go to .61.The underlined expression "the fairer sex" in Paragraph 1 refers to ____ .A. menB. babiesC. womenD.researchers62.
