Murder reaches its high during July and August, as do rape and other violent attacks. Murder, moreover, ismore than seasonal: it is a weekend crime. It is also a nighttime crime: 62 percent of murders are committed between 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.Unlike the summer high in crimes of bodily harm, burglary has a different cycle. You are most likely to be robbed between 6 p.m. and 2 a.m. on a Saturday night in December, January, or February. What is the most uncriminal month of all? May—except for one strange statistic.

Speak slowly and clearly and look at the people in your audience. Use simple vocabulary and expressions whenever possible. Pause for a few seconds and then to give your audience a chance to think about what you have said. Make sure that everyone in the room can hear you. If it is a large room or an auditorium, you will probably have to use a microphone. If you follow these simple steps you´ll see that you don´t have to be afraid of public speaking.

What are these characteristic features which outstand in making the English language what it is, which give it its individuality and make it of this worldwide significance?First and most important is extraordinary receptive and adaptable —it has taken to itself material from almost everywhere in the world and has made the new elements of language its own. English, which when the Anglo-Saxons first conquered England in the fifth and sixth centuries was almost a “pure” or unmixed language—which could make new words for new ideas from its own compounded elements.A second outstanding characteristic of English is its simplicity and the relationship of words in a sentence with only the minimum of change in their shapes or variation of endings.A third quality of English is its relatively fixed word order.21.

Many of these have very useful anatomical adaptation lacking in their Old World counterparts: the prehensile tail.And in a few species the gripping tail has developed to such an extent that it actually has “fingerprints” on the tip. While of course a tail i s not equipped with fingers, it can sometimes be even more useful than an arm or a leg. A spider monkey´s tail, for instance, is longer than its head and body combined, and is frequently used instead of a hand to grasp distantobjects. Other monkeys less fortunate are forced to relegate at least one limb to support while they feed. Whereas monkeys endowed with prehensility can hang by their tails while they feast with both hands and feet. A few New World monkeys have also evolved arms and shoulders that are suitable for swinging hand over hand through the tress like the Asiatic Gibbons.26. The passage mainly discusses ____.A. certain evolutionary advantage of New World monkeysB. feeding habits of the spider monkeyC. the development of arms and shoulders in New World monkeysD. some anatomical adaptations of Asiatic Gibbons27.

Paintings by Ruby, an Asian elephant who lived at the Phoenix Zoo in Arizona, sold for up to $5,000 in the late 1980s, said Dick George, a consultant with the zoo. "Ruby was about seven months old when she first came to the zoo", said George. "She lived with a goat and some chickens, but she didn"t have an elephant companion for a number ofyears. She spent a lot of time drawing in the dirt with a stick to make her days more stimulating. Her keeper bought her some art supplies". George said, ", Ruby was excited about painting right from the beginning". The elephants at the art academies in the Southeast Asia are taught to hold a paintbrush with the tip of their trunks. Initially, the keeper guides the elephant"s trunk over the canvas(画布) and offers rewards for good performance. "It only takes a few hours to a day to teach them", said Mia Fineman, an art historian whose book When Elephants Paint is an illustrated history of the Asian Elephant Art and Conservation Project.第11题Ruby was an Asian elephant ______.A.who was sold for a price as high as $5,000B.who was famous for being the first painting elephantC.whose paintings sold for as high as $5,000D.who started painting in the late 1980s第12题Why did Ruby start painting according to Dick George?A.Because she was seven years old.B.Because she was the first to come to the zoo.C.Because she learned a lot from the goat and the chickens.D.Because she had no elephant partners to play with.第13题How did Ruby paint at the very beginning?A.She used a stick to draw in the dirt.B.She spent much time in the dirt.C.She stimulated herself every day.D.She painted with her keeper"s art supplies.第14题To encourage the elephants to paint well, the keeperA.bought them a lot of art suppliesB.made them excited at the beginningC.taught them to hold a paintbrush with their trunksD.reinforced the desired behaviors with rewards第15题When Elephants Paint is a book ______.A.on the history of artsB.about the painting elephants in AsiaC.explaining how to teach elephants to paintD.chiefly theorizing about elephant art上一题下一题(16~20/共20题)阅读理解While it is true that Americans believe climbing the educational ladder leads to success, they are less certain that intellectual achievement is the only important factor leading to success. A competitive personality is seen as important to success, especially in men. The development of social and political skills is also considered to be very important. To help Americans develop these other important skills, schools have added a large number of extracurricular(课程外)activities to daily life at school. This is especially tree of high schools and colleges and extends down into elementary schools as well. Athletics, frequently called "competitive sports", are perhaps the most important of these activities. Football, basketball, and baseball teams are seen as very important in teaching students, particularly boys, the "winning spirit". At times, athletic teams seem to become more important to some students and their parents than the academic programs offered by the schools.第16题Americans believe that education is ______.A.the only way to successB.the main purpose of the schoolsC.just like climbing laddersD.important to success第17题Which of the following is NOT mentioned as important to success?A.intellectual achievementpetitive personalityC.social backgroundsD.social and political skills第18题A variety of extracurricular activities are added in American schools ______.A.to help students climb the education ladderB.to enrich students" dull life at schoolC.to help students become more successful in later lifeD.to extend college education down into elementary schools第19题Athletic activities are designed ______.A.to make boys strongerB.to teach students winning spiritC.to develop students" social and political skillsD.to improve the academic programs第20题Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?cation and SuccessB.Extracurricular Activities at SchoolC.Athletic SportsD.Intellectual Achievement上一题下一题(21~25/共20题)阅读理解People once widely believed that intelligent life existed on Mars. The 19th-century discovery of what appeared to be geometric designs cut across the surface was taken as evidence. The lines were thought to have been a system of canals that had been built to irrigate the surface. It is now clear that "canals"—perhaps the most spectacular geologic features of Mars—are natural valleys where ancient rivers once flowed. Another fragmented idea concerns the planet"s seasonal changes in color. Once attributed to the rapid spread of some life-form, these shifts are nowknown to develop from the movement of fine dust in the atmosphere. By the close of the 20th century none of the many experiments conducted by spacecraft had ever found persuasive evidence of life. Nevertheless, speculation continued over the existence of some form of life, in either the present or the past. In 1996 scientists discovered organic compounds and minerals in a meteorite(陨石), consisting of Martian rock, that collided with Earth around 11,000 B.C. These compounds suggest that Mars may have been inhabited by organisms more than three billion years ago.第21题Why did people in the 19th century believe the existence of intelligent life on Mars?A.Because the surface of Mars seemed to be geometric.B.Because the lines were drawn across the surface of the planet.C.Because a system of canals was thought to be there.D.Because it was the Martians that built the canals.第22题The "canals" on Mars have proved to be ______ according to the passage.A.the minor geologic characteristic of MarsB.natural valleys on the surface of MarsC.rivers that have kept flowing since ancient timesD.a system that irrigates the whole surface第23题What were the Mars" seasonal changes in color believed to be?A.The natural changes on the planet.B.The seasonal cycles.C.The movement of some life form.D.The storm of dust in its atmosphere.第24题How is the 1996 discovery related to the possible existence of organisms on Mars?A.The meteorite containing organic compounds is part of Mars.B.A Martian rock struck Earth about 11,000 years ago.C.The organisms came back to life after the collision with Earth.D.The inhabiting organisms appeared more than three billion years ago.第25题How many arguments in this passage lead to the belief of the existence of life on Mars?A.Two.B.Three.C.Four.D.Five.上一题下一题(26~30/共20题)阅读理解Weather Forecast The following forecast shows for the listed cities the projected weather conditions and the expected range of temperatures from the afternoon high to the evening low. 图片第26题According to the forecast, ______.A.Kansas City will be warmer than TorontoB.temperatures will be the lowest in Seattle and MinneapolisC.the weather will be fine in most of the listed citiesD.more than half of the listed cities ore cloudy or rain likely第27题Among the following four cities, the difference between the afternoon high and the evening low is smallest in ______.A.Kansas CityB.MiamiC.AtlantaD.Seattle第28题Which of the following cities is closest m Miami in weather conditions?A.BostonB.AtlantaC.WashingtonD.Houston第29题The difference between the afternoon high and the evening low is greatest in ______.A.SeattleB.Los Angeless VegasD.Phoenix第30题The differences between the afternoon high and the evening low are the same in ______.A.Chicago, Dallas, Kansas City, and St. LouisB.Atlanta, San Francisco, New Orleans, and SeattleC.Cleveland, Dallas, St. Louis, and Washington,D.C.D.Pittsburg, Miami, Houston, and Boston上一题下一题(31~40/共10题)完型填空How much sleep does a person need?【B1】the physiological bases of the need for sleep remain conjectural(猜想), rendering conclusive answers to this question impossible, much evidence has been gathered on how much sleep people do in fact obtain.

They giggle(吃吃地笑)as the commands keep coming in Mandarin Chinese.Half of the 340 students at the K-5 school are enrolled in the program. They can continue studying Chinese in middle and high schools. The goal: to speak like natives.About 24,000 American students are currently learning Chinese. Most are in high schools. But the number of younger students is growing in response to China's emergence as a global superpower."China has become a strong partner of the United States," says Mary Patterson, Woodstock's principal. "Children who learn Chinese at a young age will have more opportunities for jobs in the future."Isabel Weiss, 9, isn't thinking about the future. She thinks learning Chinese is fun.

"And this time," according to a NASA press release, "we're going to stay."NASA wants to make a new spaceship for the missions using parts from the Apollo program, which first took people to the moon in 1969, and the space shuttle. NASA says the new Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) will be "affordable, reliable, reliable, and sage."The CEV will be able to hold four astronauts. The plan is to have the CEV dock(对接)in space with the lunar lande—the vehicle astronauts will use to land on the moon—which will be launched separately into space. The CEV will then travel to the moon and all four astronauts will walk on the moon.The first moon missions are expected to last up to seven days. Exploration and construction of a moon base will be the astronauts' top priorities(最优先考虑的事).NASA hopes to have a minimum of two moon missions a year starting in 2018.

Now, people around the world can hear some of the former slaves' stories for the first time ever, as told in their own voices."That was in slavery time," says Charlie Smith in one interview. "They sold the colored people. And they were bringing them from Africa. They brought me from Africa. I was a child."The Library of Congress released the collection of recordings, Voices from the Days of Slavery, in January. The recordings were made between 1932 and 1975. Speaking at least 60 years after their emancipation(解放), the storytellers discuss their experiences as slaves. They also tell about their lives as free men and women.Isom Moseley was just a boy at the time of emancipation, but he recalls that things were slow to change. "It was a year before the folks knowed they was free," he says.[黑人说英语有时不合语法,因此,这里他把knew说成了knowed, 把were 说成了was.]Michael Taft, the head of the library's archive of folk culture, says the recordings reveal something that written stories cannot. "The power of hearing someone speak is so much greater than reading something from the page," Taft says. "It's how something is said—the dialect, the low pitches, the pauses—that helps tell the story."21. What is new about the slaves' stories?A. They are told in the slaves' own voices.B. People travel around the world to hear them.C. Colored people were sold.D. They happened in the slavery time.22. What is the title of the collection of recordings?A. The End of the U.S. Civil WarB.

Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories, and offices.Buildings account for 65 percent of total U.S. electricity use. But green buildings can reduce energy and water use. Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subways, so that people can drive their cars less. That could be good for the environment, because cars use lots of natural resources such as gasoline, and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on previously developed land, so that the buildings don’t destroy forests or other wild habitats (栖息地).Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that puts these ideas into action. The Solaire has been called the country’s first green residential high-rise building. According to Dettling, “We’ve reduced our energy consumption by one-third and our water by 50 percent.”Not everyone is leaping to move into a green building, however. Some people think that features such as solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources. Despite this, Dettling hopes that green buildings will become common in the future. “It’s going to be big,”she said.11. What do green buildings refer to nowadays?A. Buildings painted by green hands.B. Buildings covered with green plants.C. Buildings that are environment-friendly.D. Buildings like houses, factories, and offices.12. The word “Also” (line 2, para. 2)is used to ___.A. continue the discussion of total U.S. electricity use.B. Expand the topic of the reduction of energy and water use.C. Include the discussion of public transportation.D. Shift the focus to the topic of the environment protection.13. In terms of land use, green buildings are constructed by ____.A. making use of the developed land.B. Developing new land.C. Clearing the ground in a forest.D. Draining wild habitats.14. Why are some people NOT so enthusiastic about green buildings?A. Because they do not jump into a green building.B. Because they fail to move into a green building.C. Because they find it more costly to live in a green building.D. Because they think that solar panels still cost too much.15. What did Marty Dettling mean when she said “It’s going to be big”?A. Green buildings have a great potential.B. People expect bigger green buildings.C. Green buildings will be larger in size.D. People prefer to live in bigger buildings.Questions 16-20 are based on the following passage:Theme-park-bound bargain seekers would be wise to spend some time surfing online before they get in line at the parks this summer.A growing number of these attractions now allow customers to print e-tickets at home with large discounts off the gate price, in part to spur attendance that has declined in recent years.After boom times in the late 1990s, theme park attendance began to decrease, with an overall decline of about 4% over the past few years at North America’s 50 most-visited establishments, says James Zoltak, editor of Amusement Business.“The bloom was off the rose as we turned the corner into 2000, so there’s more discounting now,” he says.Discounting isn’t new to an industry that has long partnered with other commercial enterprises, such as soft drink companies, to offer deals. The e-ticketing adds a new opportunity that not only brings savings but convenience as well, since it allows visitors to avoid the line at the gate.“If you can get in early before the lines fill up, you're getting more for your money,”says Robert Niles of the website Theme Park Insider.16. The word “attractions” (line 1, para. 2) refers to ___.A. theme parksB. bargainsC. e-ticketsD. discounts17. Why do more and more theme parks offer large discounts off gate price?A. To get in line at the parks this summer.B. To encourage more people to come to the parks.C. To enable people to get e-tickets at home.D. To reduce the attendance figure.18. What does the sentence “The bloom was off the rose” mean?A. the rose in the theme park was out of bloom.B. the year 2000 was lucky for the 50 establishments.C. the theme park attendance was like the rose.D. the best time for the theme parks was gone.19. What is the new opportunity e-ticketing brings to the theme parks?A. The theme park industry will be more profitable.B. Soft drink companies will be better partners of the parks.C. The tour to the parks will be more convenient.D. Visitors to the parks will have more discounts.20. The last sentence of this passage is based on the idea that ____.A. it is wise to surf online.B. discounting isn’t everything.C. e-ticketing attracts more partners.D. time is money.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage:One thing almost everyone is agreed on , including Americans, is that they place a very high valuation upon success. Success does not necessarily mean material rewards, but recognition of some sort—preferably measurable. If a boy turns out to be a preacher(传道者) instead of a businessman, that’s all right. But the bigger his church is, the more successful he is judged to be.A good many things contributed to this accent on success. There was the Puritan(清教徒的) belief in the virtue of work, both for its own sake and because the rewards it brought were regarded as signs of God’s love. There was the richness of opportunity in a land waiting to be settled. There was the lack of a settled society with fixed ranks and classes, so that a man was certain to rise through achievement.There was the determination of an immigrant to gain in the new world what had been denied to him in the old, and on the part of his children an urge to throw off the immigrant onus(负担) by still more success and still more rise in a fluid and classless society. Brothers did not compete within the family for the favor of the parents as in Europe, but worked hard for success in the outer world, along paths of their own choosing.21. According to the first paragraph, ______.A. success is highly valued in American society.B. success surely brings material rewards.C. success equals measurable recognition.D. people agree on what success means.22. In this passage, the author indicates that _____.A. preachers are not as successful as businessmen.B. businessmen are not as successful as preachers.C. boys are advised to become preachers instead of businessmen.D. measurable success can also be achieved by preachers.23. The word “accent” (line 1, para. 2) most probably means ____.A. dialectB. emphasisC. attentionD. recognition24. Which of the following does NOT account for people’s desire for success?A. The Puritan belief in the virtue of work.B. Richness of opportunities in the new world.C. Lack of fixed social ranks and classes.D. Determination to deny the values of the new world.25. It is suggested in the last paragraph that _______ in the old world.A. children tended to compete for the favor of their parentsB. children were determined to throw off their immigrant identitiesC. children were urged to achieve success in the fluid and classless societyD. children worked hard for success along paths chosen by their parents.Questions 26-30 are based on the following two advertisements: Advertisement IAdvertisment ⅡSCONE PALACEPERTH SCOTLANDThe Home of the Earls of MansfieldSituated just outside Perth on the A93, Braemar Road2004Good Friday 25TH Apirl to Monday 5TH OctoberMonday to Saturdays 10:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.mSunday July and August from 11:00 a.mBeautiful porcelain,superb French furniture,unique Vernis Martin collection, Lvories,clocks,needlework and objects D’art.Extensive Grounds.Woodland Gardens.Adventure Playgrounds.Old Kitchen Restaurant-Home Baking-Coffee Shop-Gift Shop_produce Shop Evening tours, Meetings, ConcertsCONTACT THE ADMINISTRATORPERTH(0738)52300Admission ChargesAdult:30 pChildren: 15 p26.

2006版考研英语模拟考场10套第一套答案1
2006版考研英语模拟考场10套第一套答案1 模拟考场(一)答案解析及参考译文Section ⅠUse of English篇章导读本题属于时间叙事的文章。
文章主题(Thesis Statement)是:“the fitness movement 健康运动”,作者从“aerobic exercise有氧运动,fitness spas健康温泉, weight�瞭raining programs减肥训练程序,physical�瞗itness tests健康体能测试”等方面展开。
解读时注意作者所持有的客观态度。
思路解析1 【答案】[B]【解析】“engage in 热忠于;沉迷于”。
根据文章的一致性,上文提到的“centered around 围绕着”,即:“20世纪60年代末70年代初健康运动是围绕着有氧运动开始的”,所以“数百万的人就热忠于各种各样的有氧运动”,“engaged”与“centered around”形成一致。
而选项[A]“impose in 把……强加给”,[C]“confine to/within 局限于”,[D]“举例说明”均不符合题意。
2 【答案】[D]【解析】“事实上;实际上”。
根据原文意思:“……而实际上,上千的保健温泉发展起来了,……”所以选择“literally”。
而选项[A]“丰富地;富足地;富裕地”,[B]“合适地;合格地;理想地”,[C]“华丽地;壮丽地;美妙地”均不符合原文意思。
3 【答案】[C]【解析】“发展”。
“developed”指事物在一段时期内“成长、发育、发展”,朝成熟、扩大、提高的方向前进,可以是自然界中的生长发育过程,也可以是人类社会中的发展、进步过程体现的发展速度很快,并暗示有某个固定目标存在。
本文是按时间顺序叙事的,“develop”有“在一段时期内发展”的意思,所以选择“develop”。
而选项[A]“提高,增强”,[B]“表明,证明,显示”,[D]establish是正式用词,常表示永久地“建立”起来,强调稳固而持久,涉及对象可以是具体和抽象事物(比如政府、医院、学校、形象、名望等),均不符合题意。

For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage:Jessica Bucknam shouts "tiao!"

They giggle(吃吃地笑)as the commands keep coming in Mandarin Chinese.Half of the 340 students at the K-5 school are enrolled in the program. They can continue studying Chinese in middle and high schools. The goal: to speak like natives.About 24,000 American students are currently learning Chinese. Most are in high schools. But the number of younger students is growing in response to China's emergence as a global superpower."China has become a strong partner of the United States," says Mary Patterson, Woodstock's principal. "Children who learn Chinese at a young age will have more opportunities for jobs in the future."Isabel Weiss, 9, isn't thinking about the future. She thinks learning Chinese is fun.

Isabel Weiss has also chosen to learn Chinese because ________ .A. she wants a brighter futureB. she finds it fun to learn the languageC. she likes to do business in ChinaD. she watches people speak the languageQuestions 16-20 are based on the following passage:The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) has announced plans to return people to the moon by 2018. "And this time," according to a NASA press release, "we're going to stay."NASA wants to make a new spaceship for the missions using parts from the Apollo program, which first took people to the moon in 1969, and the space shuttle. NASA says the new Crew Exploration Vehicle (CEV) will be "affordable, reliable, reliable, and sage."The CEV will be able to hold four astronauts. The plan is to have the CEV dock(对接)in space with the lunar lande—the vehicle astronauts will use to land on the moon—which will be launched separately into space. The CEV will then travel to the moon and all four astronauts will walk on the moon.The first moon missions are expected to last up to seven days. Exploration and construction of a moon base will be the astronauts' top priorities(最优先考虑的事).NASA hopes to have a minimum of two moon missions a year starting in 2018. This will allow for quick moon base construction, constant scientific study, and training for future missions to Mars.16. What is new in NASA's plan to return to the moon by 2018?A. People will land and remain on the moon.B. Equipment will be carried and installed there.C. More CEVs will be made regularly.D. A special device will be used in landing.17.

What will be the astronauts' top priorities?A. Entering the orbit and landing on the moon.B. Landing and walking on the moon surface.C. Exploration and researches into the moon composition.D. Exploration and construction of a moon base.20. The reason why NASA hopes to carry out at least two moon missions a year starting in 2018 is to ________.A. ensure the moon traveling and the moon base constructionB. speed up the moon base construction and other activitiesC. guarantee the quality of the researchers' scientific studyD. set up new training laboratories for future missions to MarsQuestions 21-25 are based on the following passage:At the end of the U.S. Civil War, about four million slaves were freed. Now, people around the world can hear some of the former slaves' stories for the first time ever, as told in their own voices."That was in slavery time," says Charlie Smith in one interview. "They sold the colored people. And they were bringing them from Africa. They brought me from Africa. I was a child."The Library of Congress released the collection of recordings, Voices from the Days of Slavery, in January. The recordings were made between 1932 and 1975. Speaking at least 60 years after their emancipation(解放), the storytellers discuss their experiences as slaves. They also tell about their lives as free men and women.Isom Moseley was just a boy at the time of emancipation, but he recalls that things were slow to change. "It was a year before the folks knowed they was free," he says.[黑人说英语有时不合语法,因此,这里他把knew说成了knowed, 把were 说成了was.]Michael Taft, the head of the library's archive of folk culture, says the recordings reveal something that written stories cannot. "The power of hearing someone speak is so much greater than reading something from the page," Taft says. "It's how something is said—the dialect, the low pitches, the pauses—that helps tell the story."21. What is new about the slaves' stories?A. They are told in the slaves' own voices.B.
