聊城大学成人教育《大学英语》期末考试复习题及参考答案

大学英语练习题Part One Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are eight passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centrePassage 1Teenagers have a new shape these days. They are about 20 pounds heavier than they were 60 years ago. They are about four inches taller, too. These facts come from J. M. Tanner, a professor in England.J. M. Tanner has been measuring people from all over the world. He has also studied people's growth records of the past 100 years.“Kids today are bigger than ever before,” he says. “Today's nine-year-olds look like eleven-year-olds back in 1900.”According to Tanner, adults also are taller than ever before. But the biggest change can be seen in young people. That's because boys used to keep on growing until they reached age 26. But today they stop growing at 18 or 19. Most girls stop growing even earlier. So today's teenagers are bigger than 26-year-olds were 60 years ago.What is causing this change? Professor Tanner says it's proper food. A good diet alone cannot make you grow beyond your natural limits. Your final height is partly caused by the height of your parents and grandparents. But eating proper food can help you reach your final height--and reach it early in life.Will people keep on getting bigger? Will we have a race of giants? NO--at least not if the U.S. is an example. Tanner says that we have eaten proper food for years, and our growth rate has already begun to level off.1. This article is mainly about ________ .A) the change of teenage tastes B) the improving of dietC) the change of teenagers' behavior D) the change of teenagers' shape2. The statement that proves that teenagers have a new shape these days is that ________ .A) J.M. Tanner has been measuring people from all over the worldB) according to Tanner, adults also are taller than ever beforeC) they are about 20 pounds heavier and about four inches taller than they were 60 years agoD) today's teenagers are bigger than 26-year-olds were 60 years ago3. ________ is least important for understanding the main idea of this article.A) The fact that people, especially young people, are bigger today than ever beforeB) Eating proper food can help you reach your final height early in lifeC) J.M. Tanner lives in England D) Most girls stop growing even earlier4. The article was probably written in ________ .A) 1950's B) 1960's C) 1970's D) 1980's5. The word "giants" in this selection probably means ________ .A) people of huge B) short people C) mature people D) unhealthy peoplePassage 2Australia is an island and it is a continent. It is the largest island in the world but it is the smallest continent. It is almost 7.7 million sq.km.. Compared with China, China is about 2 million sq. km. Larger.Australia is in the south of the world. It lies between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean .The Indian Ocean is to the west and the south. The Pacific Ocean is to the east.Most of the western half of Australia is highland. But it is not very high, and the land is rather flat. High flat land is not called mountains. It is called Plateau. The west of Australia is called the Western-Australian Plateau. It is about 300m high.There is high land in the east of Australia, too. Some of it is plateau and some of it is mountains. The highest mountain is in the southeast. It is called MT Kosciusko. It is 2228m high. This high land in the east is sometimes called the Great Dividing Range. It has this name because it divides the east coast from the rest of the country. Between the Great Dividing Range and the western Australian Plateau the land is low. This part of the country is called the Central Lowlands.The only big river in Australia is the River Murray. It begins in the mountains in the southeast of the country and it runs westward into the Indian Ocean.6. Australia is __________.A)a big island B)a small islandC)the largest one of the islands in the world D)the largest one of the continents in the world7. China is __________.A)about 7.7 million sq. km. B)about 2 million sq. km.C)about 9.7 million sq. km. D)about 0.7 million sq. km.8. Most of the western half of Australia is ______.A)very high B)mountain C)flat land D)plateau9. MT Kosciusko is __________.A)in the southeast B)in the west C)in the east D)plateau10. Why is the high land in the east sometimes called the Great Dividing Range?A)Because it divides the east coast from the rest of the country.B)Because the land between the Great Dividing Range and the Western Australian Plateau is low.C)Because it divides the southeast sea from the country.D)Because the east coast is called the Central Lowlands.Passage 3Blue jeans are the all-American, all-purpose clothing. Farmers and laborers wear them to work in. Children wear them to play in. Teenagers and adults wear them to look fashionable (时髦). Before the 1950's, blue jeanswere popular only in the West and the Southwest. Today almost everyone wears them.Levi Strauss and Company makes about one-third of all the jeans in the United States and about one-seventh of those in other countries. In fact, for a long time, people used the word Levi's as a synonym (同义词) for blue jeans. That's because Levi's were the first jeans ever made. Their inventor was a German immigrant (移民) namedLevi Strauss.Levi Strauss left Germany in 1848, when he was a young man. He came to New York City to be near his two brothers. For two years, he was a door-to-door salesman. He worked hard, but he didn't make much money. Then like many other Easterners, he decided to go to San Francisco.When Levi went West, he brought some canvas (a very strong cloth) with him. He wanted to sell it to the gold miners for making tents. His canvas was the wrong kind for tents, but Levi found another use for it. A miner told Levi that he needed a strong pair of pants because digging for gold was hard work. When Levi heard that, he made him a pair of canvas pants. The miner paid Levi $6 in gold dust and told the others about "those pants of Levi's". Levi quickly sold a lot of pants, but he ran out of canvas. He wrote to his brothers in New York and told them to send more. Instead, they sent him some heavy cotton cloth called denim. Much of this kind of cloth came from Genes (the French name for the city of Genoa, Italy). Levi changed the spelling of Genes to jeans. He also dyed (染) the denim blue. He called his new pants blue jeans.11. According to the passage, blue jeans didn't become popular across the United States until after ______.A)the mid-17th century B)the mid-18th century C)the mid-19th century D)the mid-20th century12. The purpose of Levi Strauss' moving from Germany to the U.S. was to ______.A)live near his two brothers in New York B)make money as a door-to-door salesmanC)find gold in California with other Easterners D)invent and sell blue jeans to miners13. Which language is the word "jeans" from?A)English B)French C)German D)Italian14. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A)Levi Strauss made the first jeans for a Western gold miner.B)Levi Strauss went West because he was unsuccessful in New York.C)Levi Strauss began his business career as a gold miner.D)Levi Strauss was the first in the world to make jeans.15. Blue jeans are ______.A)made of denim instead of canvas B)the strong pants only for hard work like gold-miningC)well-loved by a limited number of people at a certain ageD)the fashionable clothing invented by Levi and his brothersPassage 4Some children are backward in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the cues and signals of the infant, whose brain is programmed to mop up(吸收) language rapidly. There are critical times, it seems, when children learn more readily. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for acquiring skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again. A bird learns to sing and to fly rapidly at the right time, but the process is slow and hard once the critical stage has passed.Linguists suggest that speech milestones are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age, but there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ (Intelligence Quotient 智商). At twelve weeks a baby smiles and utters vowel-like sounds; at twelve months he can speak simple words and under- stand simple commands; at eighteen months he has a vocabulary of thirty to fifty words. At three he knows about 1000 words which he can put into sentences, and at four his language differs from that of his parents in style rather than grammar.Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about man's brain, compared with that for the monkey, is the complex system which enables a child to connect the sight and feel of, say, a teddy-bear with the sound pattern "teddy-bear". And even more incredible(不可思议) is the young brain'sability to pick out an order in language from the hubbub(喧哗) of sound around him, to analyse, to combine and recombine the parts of a language in novel ways.But speech has to be triggered(触发), and this depends on interaction between the mother and the child,where the mother recognizes the cues and signals in the child's babbling, (咿咿呀呀) clinging, grasping, crying, smiling, and responds to them. Insensitivity of the mother to these signals dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity to the child's non-verbal cues is essential to the growth and development of language.16. The reason some children are backward in speaking today is that ____________ .A) they do not listen carefully to their mothersB) their brains have to absorb too much language at onceC) their mothers do not respond to their attempts to speakD) their mothers are not intelligent enough to help them17. By "critical times" the author means _______________ .A) difficult periods in the child's lifeB) moments when the child becomes critical towards its motherC) important stages in the child's developmentD) times when mothers often neglect their children18. Which of the following is NOT implied in the passage?A) The faculty of speech is inborn in man.B) Children do not need to be encouraged to speak.C) The child's brain is highly selective.D) Most children learn their language in definite stages.19. It the mother does not respond to her child's signals __________ .A) the child will never be able to speak properlyB) the child will stop giving out signalsC) the child will invent a language of its ownD) the child will make little effort to speak20. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A)By the age of a year and a half the child's vocabulary is still under 100 words.B) By the age of four children still make many grammatical mistakes.C) The author does not believe that children select and analyse their language.D) All children of high IQ start to speak early.Passage 5Humans are the dominant ( 统治 ) species on planet Earth. Their numbers are increasing rapidly. They are no longer restricted by their environment, as they can live in the most hostile of deserts or the bitter cold of Antarctic.Human culture is heavily based on the earth's natural resources -- oil, coal and metals; soil, water and forests. Industrialized society is using increasing amounts of these resources each year. Governments and industrialists strive for economic growth -- for factories and mines to produce more each year than they did in the previous year. But fuels and metals and, to a lesser extent, the soil are nonrenewable resources. Once used they are gone forever. In many cases the lifetime of these resources is coming to an end.Factories and machines create wastes. These wastes are poured into the atmosphere, the water and even into the soil. The damaging effect of this pollution is, in some cases, permanent. To reduce pollution creates further problems. Factories may have to be redesigned or even pulled down. This costs money and may mean loss of livelihood ( 生计 ) for many workers.Modern technology is creating an additional problem -- it is making industry more and more automatic ( 自动化 ). This means that fewer and fewer people are needed to operate factories and offices. The consequent lossof jobs is a worldwide problem and western society is still struggling to find the answer.This introduction gives you some idea of the topics to be discussed in detail in this chapter.21. This passage is most probably written as ______.A) the beginning part of a certain chapter B) the middle part of a certain chapterC) the last part of a certain chapter D) a self-contained chapter22. Which of the following topics is NOT discussed in the passage?A) Natural Resources B) Industrial Pollution C) Unemployment D) Overpopulation23. The author's purpose in the first paragraph is to tell us the fact that ______.A) deserts are hostile B) Antarctic is very coldC) human beings now inhabit the entire EarthD) there are many different species on planet Earth24. According to the passage, some natural resources like fuels and metals ______.A) are no longer new B) will never be goneC) will soon be used up D) can not be used at present25. Which pollution is NOT mentioned in the passage?A) Air Pollution B) Water Pollution C) Soil Pollution D) Sound PollutionPassage 6When I was a boy I was always told, "Peter, the more you know, the further you go. " So I stayed in school until I graduated from college and then went forth into the world, holding firmly the idea and my new teaching certificate. During the first year of teaching, I was upset to find that a number of teachers, school principals and superintendents appeared to be unaware of their professional responsibilities and incompetent in carrying out their duties. For instance, my principal's main concerns were that classrooms should be quiet and that no one should step on or near the flower beds. The superintendent's main concerns were that all official forms should be submitted on time. The children's education appeared farthest from their mind.At first I thought this was a special weakness of the local school system in which I started to work as a teacher. So I applied for certification in another state. I filled out the forms, enclosed the required documents and sent them off. Several weeks later, back my application and all the documents!No, there was nothing wrong with my forms; they were all correctly filled out; an official departmental stamp showed that they had been received in good order. But an accompanying letter said, "The new regulations require that such forms cannot be accepted by the Department of Education unless they have been registered at the Post Office to ensure safe delivery. Will you please re-mail the forms to the Department, making sure to register them this time? I began to suspect that the local school system did not have a monopoly on incompetence.As I grew older, I saw that every organization contained a number of persons who could not do their jobs.26. The word "superintendents" in the first paragraph refers to ______.A) colleges which grant certificates B) persons in charge of some offices at schoolsC) regulations concerning applications D) people who send their children to the school27. The principal of the local school seemed least concerned about ______.A) flower beds B) quiet classrooms C) official forms D) students' education28. The author applied for certification in another state because ______.A) he was fired by the local school B) he expected a better school system thereC) he did so as required by the new regulations D) he expected a higher position there29. The application forms came back several weeks after the author sent them off because ______.A) he failed to fill out the forms correctly B) he didn't pay enough postageC) he didn't register the forms at the Post Office D) he sent the forms to a wrong address30. What did the author most probably feel after reading the letter from the Department?A) Confident. B) Miserable. C) Satisfied. D) Upset.Passage 7The only way you can become a good reader is through practice. You can not read a few paragraphs in your English book once a week and become a fluent reader. You need to read constantly. You should carry something to read with you wherever you go.Take an English magazine, for example, and carry it in your pocket. Whenever you have the chance, turn on a page and read a paragraph or two.You should read in as many different subject areas as you can. You should try to find English books on different subjects and read a few paragraphs in each chapter in each book. Your eyes and mind need to practise. Your eyes need to practise moving quickly across the page from left to right, and your mind needs to practise making quick associations between the printed word and meaning.When you begin to read you should ask yourself a basic question: why am I reading this? If you are reading to practise your English, you will read in a certain way. You will read slowly and concentrate on the relationship between the words and the grammatical structures. If you are reading for information about a particular subject, you will read in another way. You will focus on main parts and supporting facts. You use the grammar of the passage as a means, not an end.Reading to practise English is the way most foreign students read English. In school you do not read English to learn about a particular subject; for example, you do not read English to learn history. You read English to learn how a sentence is put together, how the verbs agree with the subjects, what the clause is, etc.31. To become a good reader you need to ___________.A) have a large vocabulary B) understand grammarC) read a lot D) move your eyes across pages quickly32. With which statement would the author agree?A) You read anything with the same skill.B) You read a newspaper differently from a textbook.C) Reading from right to left is an important skill.D) You should read only the material that interests you.33. When most students read to learn a foreign language, _____________.A) they read every word B) they only read the important wordsC) they keep asking themselves "why am I reading this?" D) they often lose patience34. When you are reading for information, you use grammar_______________.A) as a tool, not as your purpose B) as your purpose, not as a toolC) as both your purpose and a tool D) as neither your purpose nor a tool35. When you read to practise English, you have to _____________.A) learn what the clause is B) learn how the verbs agree with the subjectC) learn how a sentence is put together D) do all of the abovePassage8The first postal service in North America began in New England in the 17th century. All mail arriving in Massachusetts colony was sent to the home of an appointed official in Boston. In turn, he would deliver the mail from Boston on horseback to its destination, receiving one penny for each good article of mail. Later in the century postal services were established between Philadelphia and Delaware. In 1691, the British crown appointed the first postmaster general to have charge of the mail for all the colonies in North America. Later, Benjamin Franklin served as the postmaster general for the British government and then was made postmaster by the newly-formed United States government.Franklin was responsible for establishing the United States postal system on a permanent basis. He increased the number of post offices, introduced the use of stagecoaches to carry mail, and started a package service system. Later, in the nineteenth century, as railroad and steam boats appeared, they were used to carry mail into the towns.Some communities, especially those out west, were far from the services of transportation. To serve them, the post office developed a system called "star routes". Private contractors were paid to deliver mail to the communities from railways by horse and wagon. The postal service, which was started over 3 centuries ago, has developed into an extensive government service with post offices in every city, town, and village in the United States.36. The subject of the passage is _____________.A) the U.S. postal system B) the history of the U.S. mailC) a story of Benjamin Franklin D) letter delivering37. The first North American postal service started _____________.A) two centuries ago B) in 1691 C) over 300 years ago D) in the 16th century38.

S..39. Star routes were started because _______________.A) the horse and wagon were slow in carrying mails B) the trains were too fastC) transportation was difficult for some towns D) the communities didn't like ordinary post offices40. What eventually happened to the postal service?A) It failed to serve people in remote places. B) It developed a transport system.C) It remained the same as it started many years before. D) It developed all over the country.Part Two ClozeDirections: In this part, you will read a passage with 40 blanks. For each blank there are four choices marked A) , B) , C) and D).

The news _______ the Chinese football team had won the match excited all of us.A. asB. thatC. whatD. whichPart II Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 3 passages altogether. After reading them, please make the correct choice.Passage 1Every nation has a set of rules, either written or unwritten, which determines how people act with each other. Formal written rules are often laws, and they control how we drive, operate a business, or run a government. Individuals who disobey laws may be fined or put in jail. Because illegal behavior generally harms other individuals or society at large, our court system must punish people who disregard these formal rules.Informal rules often called “manners”, describe correct and incorrect behavior in such situations as eating in a restaurant, going on a date, or working in an office. If one is impolite or misbehaves in these situations, other people often consider offender insensitive. And although we can strongly disagree to such misconduct, we can not legally punish someone for simply being inconsiderate or unpleasant.Neither laws nor manners are inflexible; both change as society develops. For example, in the early twentieth century, the selling of strong spirits was forbidden. This law however had to be changed because the government found it impossible to force people to drink only soft drinks. More recently, many people who were dissatisfied with the unequal between the rights of men and women worked to pass the Equal Rights Law. As women became more independent and took on new roles, a new law was considered necessary to reflect that change.26. What is the passage mainly about?A. Laws of a societyB. Social mannersC. Rules of a societyD. The reason for people to change their laws27. According to the passage, laws and manners _______.A. can change our societyB. are not inflexibleC. can help us reflect the unequal changes in a societyD. are exactly the same28. Which of the following statement is true according to the passage?A. The first paragraph mainly tells us how to run a governmentB. The first paragraph mainly discusses the difference between laws and mannersC. The second paragraph tells us in detail how to cultivate good mannersD. The third paragraph mainly explains why both laws and manners have to be changed with the development of the society.29. What is implied in the passage?A. In the early twentieth century, the selling of strong spirits was forbidden.B. Laws are formal written rules.C. Only those whose illegal behavior harms other people or the society will be legally punished.D. We can also legally punish someone for simply being inconsiderate or unpleasant.30. What is closest in meaning to the underlined word “disregard”(para1.)?A. disguiseB. disagreeC. discardD. disobeyPassage 2It is quite clear that sleeping is necessary to everyone. If we don’t get enough sleep, we will feel tired.Generally, we have two kinds of sleep: active sleep and passive sleep. The passive sleep gives us the rest our bodies need, and prepare us for active sleep, in which dreaming appears. In passive sleep, the body is at relaxation. The heart slows down. We move little. And the brain becomes very inactive. If a person continues to sleep, the brain temperature rises, the amount of blood in the brain increases, the body becomes very, very still, and the brain goes from being inactive to being active. And as the brain becomes more active the eyes begin to move rapidly. When the eyes begin to move, this is a sign of another change------- the change is that the person is dreaming.Throughout the night a person usually dreams for about one and a half hours. Many people say that they don’t dream or that they rarely dream. Doctors have studied the sleep and have found that everyone dreams------in fact, every person needs to dream in order to keep healthy. It appears that we need passive sleep in order to rest our bodies and need active sleep in order to rest our brains.31. Sleep is necessary to everyone because_______.A. our brains cannot work without itB. our bodies need itC. it is of great importance to our healthD. it is of great importance to our minds32. According to the passage, we know that dreaming appears in _______.A. our inactive sleepB. our active sleepC. our passive sleepD. our health sleep33. The eyes will not move and be still when a person sleeps unless__________.A. he is forced to open his eyesB. he is blind in one eyeC. he is disturbed by othersD. he is dreaming34. Which of the following statement is true about the state of passive sleep?A. His body moves a little and his brain becomes activeB. His heart beats slowly but his body moves a lotC. His heart beats slowly and his brain becomes very calmD. His brain becomes inactive and his heart beats fast35. It can be inferred from the passage that______.A. those people who dream a lot in their sleep can never keep healthyB. both active sleep and passive sleep are important to our healthC. only passive sleep is necessary to every one of usD. a person needs only one and a half hours’ sleep everydayPassage3Check-in RequirementsPassengers and their baggage must be checked in at least 45 minutes before departure for domestic(国内的) flights and 60 minutes for international flights. Government-issued photo identification(证明) is required for all passengers. Passengers traveling across any international boundary(边界)are responsible for obtaining all necessary travel documents. Passengers may be denied boarding if travel documents are not in order. When check-in requirements are not met，a passenger may be separated from his／her bag. Frontier Airlines will gladly hold the bag in the destination（目的地）baggage service office for pick-up at the passenger’s convenience. Passengers must be at the gate 20 minutes before departure for boarding.Free Baggage Allowance for Each Ticketed PassengerFrontier Airlines，Inc. will accept，per ticketed passenger，two free checked bags not to exceed 62 inches and 50 pounds per piece—one carry—on bag and one personal item(purse，laptop，etc.).NOTE：A ticketed passenger may check one carry-on bag if it is within established limitations.

They worry because they can’t remember words. In fact，the problem usually isn’t with their memory. The problem is with how they study.To remember words better，you need to understand how memory works. There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. When you see，hear，or read something，it goes first into short-term memory. But short-term memory lasts for only a few seconds. You will only remember something longer if it goes into long-term memory. Your long-term memory is like a very big library with many，many books. And like a library，it’s organized（有条理的）. When you putaway a book-or memory-you can’t just leave it anywhere. You have to choose a place where you can find it again.How can you do this with vocabulary？The answer is to work with the word and think about the word in new ways. You can do this by writing new sentences that include it. Even better，you can invent a little story about the word，with people or places that you know. Another way is to make a picture in your mind with the word. For example，if the word is height，you can think of the tallest person you know and try to guess his or her height. All of these activities are good ways to think about words. They make the meaning of words stronger in your long-term memory. And they give a way to find a word when you need it.1.

Sometimes there was only one!However, I don’t want anyone to think that I have a negative opinion of the Wilson students. Actually, I have been impressed with how involved the students here are.

My family would spend hours and hours watching it on television while I angrily waited for it to end. Every game seemed the same. Yes, one team won and the other one lost, but it was always the same game—some men pitching a ball, some running back and forth.Then something happened. I became old enough to start playing cricket myself withthe other kids in my neighborhood. We found a place to play wherever we could put up a wicket. We played on the street, in the backyard—even on the tops of buildings, believe it or not!I can recall so clearly the sounds of the ball hitting the bat and the quick running feet. I can still feel the sun on my face as I played and the bruises and scratches from falling down. I can still see the blue sky fading to darkness behind the buildings as our games continued into the night. It became my favorite thing in the world. Now I watch it not with anger, but with fond memories of the endless days and nights spent playing the game.11.
