Cloze (1 point for each, altogether 10 points) Directions: Decide which of the choices given below would best complete the passage if inserted in the corresponding blanks.Write your answers on the answer sheet.Families have always been changing. For example, once the family was the world. In 31 words,at one time everything a person did took place within the family. The family was the child's only school. The family was the only means to settle a dispute. Nowadays,the family is still the "world" in some cultures. But in many cultures,these 32 functions of the family have largely been 33 by other institutions,such as schools,churches,and governments.In the 34 ,families changed in other ways,some scientists believe that when people obtained food by hunting animals and gathering roots and plants,the family had to be small 35 move around, and when they settled down to 36 to obtain food,they found that they needed more 37 to do the work. Then the new family developed in some cultures. Now 38 to their children,people lived together with their parents and even grandparents.How are families changing today The number of nuclear families(核心家庭)seems to be increasing everywhere in theworld,while that of extended families is 39 . One reason for this seems to be that in many cultures today people are leaving farms and villages to find jobs in the city. Extended families are hard to maintain when people have to be free to move in order to find 40 .31. [A] another[B] the other[C] other[D] others32. [A] former [B] front[C] latter [D] back33.

(2 points for each, altogether 30 points)Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.Passage 1Intelligent young people want to go to university, and it is logical for a country to provide university places for them to ensure that there will be good-trained men and women to run the government and industry in the future. So in the 1960s the government set up a number of new universities in Britain to provide everyone with sufficient opportunity to study. But nowsomething has gone wrong. There is still fierce competition to go to university to study arts and other subjects, but many places for scientists are not taken up.The new universities concentrated on science because it seemed practical. They developed new courses so as not to imitate traditional university education. Why have their calculations proved wrong One reason is that a lot of young people can get enough qualifications to work in industry by going to technical school. They think university courses are too long and too theoretical. But this does not explain why the majority of students still prefer arts subjects to science subjects. 41.What is "logical" according to the first paragraph_______.[A] Intelligent young people want to go to university.[B] The government should set up universities to train young people for the country.[C] People who run the country should be well-trained.[D] University is the place to train young men and women. 42.What makes the new universities different from the traditional ones_______.[A] There are more science subjects in them.[B] There are more arts students in them.[C] Their curriculum is more scientifically planned.[D] They are equipped with more modern facilities.43.What does "their calculations"(par.2)refer to _______.[A] Their plan to defeat the traditional university education.[B] Their calculations of how many students study science and how many students study arts.[C] Their thought that science is practical.[D] Their assumption that people are willing to study the practical science subjects in the university.44.Which of the following shows the advantage of technical schools over universities correctly_______.[A] They have more qualified teachers.[B] They have more qualified courses.[C] The students can be qualified to work within a short time.[D] If the students get qualification in technical schools, they are more well-received by industry.45.Why does the majority of the students prefer to study artsin university_______.[A] The reason is not clear.[B] The science courses in university are too theoretical.[C] Arts sound nobler than science.[D] The curriculum of science course is not well-arranged. Passage 2Most Europeans want small cars. Many Americans prefer large cars. As a result, European auto-makers produce a wide variety of economical, lightweight cars while American auto-makers tend to build bigger, heavier cars.The price of gasoline has much to do with this. Gasoline is expensive in Europe, so Europeans naturally prefer cars that will go a long way on a small amount of fuel.Other reasons also enter into the big or little car decision. Many Old World cities have very narrow, winding streets. In these cities a small car is more practical and easier to handle than a large one.Some Americans like powerful engines in their cars. They enjoy having roomy cars that are comfortable for large familiesand long trips. They are prepared to pay higher operating costs to get these advantages.Other Americans, however, have learned to like small,nimble cars. Many visitors to Europe during and after WWⅡ discovered that small cars were fun to drive and easy to park in small spaces. They were delighted to learn how far small cars could go on a few gallons of gasoline.In the 1950s,many Americans began buying European cars. In 1953, for the first time, the United States imported more cars than it exported. The best seller among these imported cars was an odd-looking but dependable small car from Germany. Americans promptly nicknamed it "the bug".Today, American car buyers have a wide choice. There are big cars for people who want elbow room, comfort and power. And there are small cars, mostly imported but some American-made, for people who want easy parking and economical operation. 46.Implied but not stated:_______.[A] All Americans buy European cars.[B] No one wants to drive a powerful car.[C] Small cars are not expensive to run.[D] Americans don't like roomy cars.47.What does the word "nimble" mean_______.[A] cheap[B] beautiful[C] swift[D] foreign48.On the whole, the article tells about_______.[A] parking cars in America[B] the price of gasoline[C] the price of roomy cars[D] big cars and small cars49.Why do some people want to purchase big cars _______.[A] They want to have elbow room, comfort and power.[B] It is easier to park big cars.[C] They need to make long-distance journey.[D] Big cars cost less than small cars.50.Which statement seems true according to the article_______.[A] Americans are not accustomed to traveling in Europe.[B] People like to choose cars from many choices.[C] People like to buy European cars without any specific reason.[D] No one drives big cars in Old World cities.Passage 3The bath was invented before the bath plug. The bath plug could not have been invented before the bath, except as a small object with which to play ice hockey. The order in which inventions are made is very important, much more important than has ever been realized, because we tend automatically to think that later inventions are better than earlier ones. A moment's thought will show this is not so. If, for example, a solution to today's urban traffic problems was proposed in the shape of a small man-powered two-wheeled vehicle which would make the motor car look like a cumbersome (笨重的)over-powered device, a space rocket trying to tackle suburban problems, we would greet it as a great technological breakthrough. “Bicycle makes car obsolete!” We would cry. Unfortunately, the bike came first, so we shall always unconsciously see it as a cruder version of the car. Other things which may have been invented too early arethe airship, the radio, the railway train, the cuff-link.Consider also the zipper. Zippers represent a technological advance on buttons, being faster and more complete. They are also more liable to come adrift, break, jam, stick and catch. Buttons can only go wrong if the thread is faulty. Even then, buttons can be mended by the user, Zips rarely can.51.If the bicycle were to be invented now, the car would appear_______.[A] unsuitable for its purpose[B] in advance of its time[C] unnecessarily expensive[D] too far for safety52.The railway train and the radio are examples of things which_______.[A] were not fully appreciated at the time of their invention[B] are more suitable for use now than when they were invented[C] are neglected in favor of more recent invention[D] are less suited to their purpose than earlier invention 53.According to the author, buttons are preferable to zippersbecause they_______.[A] are more convenient[B] are more reliable[C] cost less to replace[D] are more complete54.What conclusion can be drawn from the article _______.[A] Modern technology can't solve our problems.[B] Everything has two aspects, advantages and disadvantages.[C] We should change our usual way of thinking about inventions.[D] Technological innovations do not always mean more benefits 55.What does the word "obsolete" mean_______.[A] outdated[B] slow in movement[C] ridiculous[D] awkwardIV. Blanking filling. (1 point for each, altogether 10 points) Directions: Complete each of the following sentences with the correct form of the italicized word on the left of each sentence. Write your answers on the answer sheet.56. free Tight clothes don’t allow enough_______ofmovement.57.concernedShe seem quite_______about the risks she was taking.58. strength It is well known that sports will_______ the friendship between nations.59. enjoy The book tells you how you can live simplyand_______.60. night At_______you hear the clock strike twelve.61.performThe first American_______of this opera was in 1926.62. argue They were having an _______about whose turn it wasto do the cooking.63. broad The very_______of the subject gives it an addedinterest.64. permit The students leave the classroom without_______.65. technique Many people call the age we live in the age of_______.56. ____________57. ____________58.____________59.____________ 60. ____________61.____________62.____________ 63. ____________ 64. ____________65. ____________V.

Men and women each had their separate part of the beach and they were nDot supposed to meet im the water.Bathing clothes were also closely cotolled Men usally wore simpl bathing dawers and no more, but women were obliged (被迫)to wear thick, cumbersome woolen guments that corvered them completely fom head to foot., These satisfhed the demands of modesty, but fthey rmust have been extenely umcomfotable for swinming.Even thus decently covered, women were not supposed to show themselves om the beachwhile in bathing costume. They had to wait tbeir tum for a bathing machine. a sot of woodkan cabin om whels which was drawn night down to the water's edge by horses. On its seaward side a sort of hood or camopy (伞盖) stetched outwards and dowwads over he water, completely hiding the batber wtal she was actually in the sea. There was a bathing woman in atendance, part of whose duty was to dip. in otber words, to seize the batbher as soon as she emerged and dip ber frcibly under water two or three times.

But soon he became interested in the civil rights movement. At present he has a plan which he hopes will take him to Congress as a southern representative.Now in his first year at Harvard Law School, Reg is making careful plans. After earning his degree, he expects to return to the South to practice law among the poor. “I want to help them understand what their rights are and to help them achieve them,” he says. Then he hopes to run for political office at the local and state level until he is ready to try for Congress.Reg grew up in a low-income Negro section of Birmingham, Alabama. Brought up by his grandparents after his parents were divorced while he was vey young, Reg has been living through a period of far-reaching progress in race relations. In the summer of 1968 Reg himself became a good example of this progress when he became the first Negro to the workings of the Georgia State government and encourages them to seek employment there after finishing their education. “I’ve been lucky,” he says. “I seem to have been in the right place at the right time.”But luck is only part of Reg’s story, for he has made the most of opportunities that came his way. He learned to read in kindergarten and began visiting the public library regularly to borrow books. His grandparents encouraged him, though neither of them had much education, and they bought him a set of encyclopedias. “I love those books,”he remembers. “I used to come downstairs before breakfast and read short articles. I enjoyed reading about famous men, and then I would pretend to be one of them. I guess it was partly a childish game and partly an escape. It wasn’t too much fun to be a Negro when I was a kid.”While studying for his bachelor’s degree at Morehouse College, Reg worked on several political campaigns helping candidates get elected to government offices. At the same time he maintained a “B” average while majoring in political science. He worked as a student advisor to earn extra money for his college expenses, and he was granted a scholarship for a year of study at the University of Valencia in Spain.With just two more years to complete at Harvard Law School, which also gave him a scholarship, Reg has made a good start on his professional career. He says, “The good life for me is the kind of life where I can find satisfaction in public service.”1.When Reginald Lindsay received a scholarship to Morehouse College, he wanted _______.A.to get a good job with very good pay B.to move to the southern part of CongressC.to lead the civil rights movement there D.to become a representative of his religion2.After earning his degree from Harvard Law School, Reginald plans to ______.A.return to his hometown to start his career as a lawyer B.go back to the South to help the poor understand their rights C.run for local office to make progress on the civil rights movement D.try for Congress by helping his poor neighbors to achieve their rights 3.Reginald started to face a problem of ______ when he was very young.A.his identity as an outstanding boy B.his grandparents’ ill-treatment C.his parents’ divorce D.his classmates’ envy4._______ Reginald became the first Negro student appointed to a special new program.A.In the year 1968 B.When he was eight years old C.After his parents’ divorce D.Just before his grandpa’s death 5.In what way did Reginald’s grandparents encourage him to read?A.They sent him to kindergarten.

Listening Comprehension (略)Part IV. Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)Section Acousins. Such "extended" families were suited for survival in slow paced __47__ societies. But such families are hard to __48__. They are immobile. Industrialism demanded masses of workers ready and able to move off the land in pursuit of jobs, and to move again whenever necessary. Thus the extended family __49__ shed its excess weight and the so-called "nuclear" family emerged---a stripped-down, portable family unit __50__ only of parents and a small set of children. This new style family, far more __51__ than the traditional extended family, became the standard model in all the industrial countries. Super-industrialism, however, the next stage of eco-technological development, __52__ even higher mobility. Thus we may expect many among the people of the future to carry the streamlining process, a step further by remaining children, cutting the family down to its more __53__ components, a man and a woman. Two people, perhaps with matched careers, will prove more efficient at navigating through education and social status, through job changes and geographic relocations, than the ordinarily child-cluttered family. A __54__ may be the postponement of children, rather than childlessness. Men and women today are often torn in __55__ between a commitment to career and a commitment to children. In the future, many __56__ will sidestep this problem by deferring the entire task of raising children until after retirement.Section BPassage OneQuestion 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.Now let us look at how we read. When we read a printed text, our eyes move across a page in short, jerky movement. We recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate. Each time they fixate, we see a group of words. This is known as the recognition span or the visual span. The length of time of which the eyes stop ----the duration of the fixation——varies considerably from person to person. It also varies within any one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text. Furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page. As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side. Such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive fixation. All these exercise s are very clever, but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently. Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words. Consequently, for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.57. The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except ________ .A. one’s familiarity with the textB. one’s purpose in readingC. the length of a group of wordsD. lighting and tiredness58. The author may believe that reading ______.A. requires a reader to take in more words at each fixationB. requires a reader to see words more quicklyC. demands a deeply-participating mindD. demands more mind than eyes59. What does the author mean by saying “but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text e fficiently.” in the second para graph?A. The ability to see words is not needed when an efficient reading is conducted.B. The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the ability to see and to comprehend words.C. The readin g exercises mentioned can’t help to improve an efficient reading.D. The reading exercises mentioned has done a great job to improve one’s ability to see words.60. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time.B. Many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training.C. The emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading.D. The eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text.61. The tune of the author in writing this article is ________A .criticalB .neutralC .pessimisticD .optimisticPassage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition of each new skill——the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are serious over times of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教),their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure. When they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled, a sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.62. Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills _______.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make him lose interest in learning new things63. In the process of children’s learning new skills parents _______.A. should not expect too much of themB. should create as many learning opportunities as possibleC. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read64. The second paragraph mainly tells us that _______.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situationC. parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityD. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children alone65. The word “precept” in paragraph 3 probably means _______.A. ideaB. punishmentC. behaviorD. instruction66. In moral matters, parents should _______.A. observe the rules themselvesB. consistently ensure the security of their childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD. be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenPart V. Cloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A. B. C. and D. on the right side of the paper. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.Part VI. Translation (5 minutes)87. Female students constitute the majority of our class.

北京联合大学大学英语课程一课一练试卷(第二册UnitEight)(出题人:晏向阳)————————————————————————————————作者:————————————————————————————————日期:2北京联合大学大学英语课程一课一练试卷(第二册Unit Eight)(出题人:晏向阳)Part I Writing (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minute to write a short essay on the topic of Fascinating China. You should write at least 120 words following the outline given bellow:一位外国朋友第一次来中国,他想让你介绍两三样极具中国特色的事物(可以是风俗文化等),你会向他介绍什么?如何介绍?Fascinating ChinaPart II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the three choices marked A),B) and C). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Written and Unwritten Rules in SwedenIn any society there are a set of rules to abide by and conform to in order to blend in or stay out of trouble. The formal rules, like laws and written regulations are easy to find out about and everyone knows you have to follow them. However, the unwritten rules or customs of a foreign society might be harder to find out about and understand. On this page, we will provide some information about laws/regulations and customs that you may find useful while you are here.Arms-length DistanceThis is the distance Swedish people normally stand apart from each other when talking. Swedes are quite reserved about personal space and if you get too close, you will probably see that the Swede will start to back off. Do not feel offended by this, as it is just normal for us to keep some distance between each other.ConflictsSwedish people like consensus and do not like open conflicts. If you have a conflict with a Swede, it would be better to have a discussion about it rather than to show a great deal of emotion or to become openly angry.Walking, Biking and DrivingWhether you are on a bicycle/walking a track or driving, you will be expected to walk on the left-hand side and bicycle on the right. Keeping this in mind might save you from unexpected collisions. Motor vehicles are always driven on the right-hand side of the road.EscalatorsOn the other hand, when riding an escalator you will be expected to stand on the right-hand side so that people who are in a hurry can walk up the left-hand side.Taking your Shoes offThis is a strange habit for most foreigners, but when you enter someone’s house or fla t, you will have to take your outdoor shoes off in the entrance. It is normal to walk around in your socks, even at someone else's house.SmokingSmoking is not allowed in restaurants, pubs or in public buildings. If there is a designated smoker’s area, us ually outside, this is the only area that you are allowed to smoke. If there is a designated area for smoking inside bars and clubs, no drinks or food can be served or brought into it. Please make it a habit to ask before you smoke, and especially in other people’s homes.The Number that Makes our Country TickAfter you have lived in Sweden for a short while, you will notice that ten little numbers make the world go round, or at least make life in Sweden a great deal easier. Those are the numbers that make up the Swedish personal ID number. In Sweden, this number is used for just about everything that involves the need to identify who a person is. Things like opening a bank account, buying insurance, using on-line booking systems and services or subscribing to a magazine are made much more easier if you have these ten little numbers. However, do not despair, there are usually ways around it. TV LicenseIf you own a TV in Sweden, you are required to report this to the TV license authority and pay the TV license. Every now and then, the TV license authority sends out controllers to visit people who have not reported that they have a TV in order to make sure that their information is correct. Drugs and AlcoholThe purchase and consumption of alcohol is subject to a number of laws and rules. Only persons of 18 years of age or older are allowed to purchase or consume alcoholic beverages. Only licensed serving places and the state owned Systembolaget(瑞典酒类专卖局)are allowed to sell alcoholic beverages that are stronger than 4 volume per cent. If you buy alcohol at a licensed serving place (pub, bar, restaurant), you may not take it outside. It is also forbidden to bring your own alcohol into a bar, pub or restaurant. It is always forbidden to consume alcohol in “publ ic p laces.” This does not include the outdoor serving areas of licensed pubs or restaurants or your own back yard. Sweden has a rather strict view concerning drugs. The purchase, possession and consumption of drugs of any kind (including marijuana), for which you do not hold a valid prescription, is illegal. Of course, the distribution of any kind of drug (even if you have a prescription for it) is strictly illegal. The only place that is legally allowed to sell prescription drugs/medication is Apoteket(瑞典药物局).Car InsuranceIf you buy a car in Sweden, you are required to insure it from the first day that the ownership of the car is transferred to you. It is the responsibility of the seller to send in the paperwork for the transfer of ownership, but you should check that this is done. If you do not insure the car right away (traffic insurance), you will be fined, and the fine is not cheap. Swedish Motor Insurers have more information.

You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in bank is identified bya letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not useany of the words in the bank more than once.A.involving B. significant C. obstacle D. conduction E. conductedF. identityG. AnalysisH. imposedI. captainJ. captionK. identified L. voiced M. proposing N. interactions O. interactiveUnspoken rules are behavioral constraints(限制)(47) in organizations or societies that are not (48) or written down. They usually exist in unspoken and unwritten format because they form a part of the logical argument or course of action implied by tacit assumptions. Examples (49) unspoken rules include unwritten and unofficial organizational hierarchies(等级), organizational culture, and acceptable behavioral norms governing (50) between organizational members.Some unwritten rules can be strong. For example, the (51) of a ship is always expected to be the last to leave it in a disaster. Also in schools offences like snitching(小偷小摸)can be treated harshly because it is part of the unwritten law that no one shall snitch on another.In the workplace, unspoken rules can have a (52) impact on one’s job satisfaction, advancement opportunities, and career trajectory(轨迹). For example, research (53) in the United States by the Level Playing Field Institute and the Center for Survey Research and (54) at the University of Connecticut revealed that 36% of white women, 37% of women of color, and 33% of men of color (55) the fact that only certain people are part of important social groups at work as the greatest (56) to fairness in their workplaces. (200 words)Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. 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 Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage."Hidden rules" in a Chinese DinnerSeating arrangementSeating arrangement abides by the rule of “left and eastern seats honored” and “seats facing the gate honored” in general. Se en from the distance between seats taken by the host and guests, the seat closer to the host is more respected. If you are the host, you should arrive at the dining room ahead of time, wait for guests at the door, and lead them to take a seat. If you are the guest, you should follow the host to take the seat.ServingA standard Chinese-style dinner is usually served in the following order: cold meats, fried fishes, entrees(正菜), snacks, soup, after-meal desserts (if requested) and fruits. Style of dishes in every process should be put into consideration at the time of dish ordering.Dining。

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on Advantages of Trying New Things. You should write at least 120 words following the outline givenbelow:1. ⼤家普遍认为做熟悉的事情容易成功,不愿尝试新事物2. 尝试新事物的好处3. 我们应该勇敢尝试新事物Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes) Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the fourchoices marked A),B),C) and D). For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with theinformation given in the passage.If I Were 21If I were 21 and wanted to study medicine, I don't think I'd go straight to school. I'd get a job as an aid in a hospital first —carrying out bedpans, if necessary — and look and listen. After a year or two of that, I might know what kind of medicine I wanted to study. Maybe I'd find that I preferred to become an expert in childhood diseases rather than a surgeon. I might even end up as a chemist or a maker of medical equipment. I'd see where the job led me.I happen to have monkeylike tendency to want to feel, smell and taste things that arouse my curiosity, then to take them apart. Not everybody is like that, but a scientific researcher should be. But if I were 21 and not scientifically inclined, I wouldn't disdain a job selling plastic dishes, for instance, from door to door. I'd learn so much about people — much more than in a laboratory. I'd make money and have fun. And I might learn some new things about what people want to buy --new ideas that would help the researcher, the designer or the manufacturer. It isn't the job you take that matters --it's what you do with it.I heard the other day of a young army officer who felt bitter when he left the army because his former employer had offered to give him his old job back --sealing envelopes. In the army, the young man, had been flying a bomber. Yet sealing envelopes is not a bad job. Some bright young man might derive an invention from it. Are envelopes made the way they should be, or does an envelope look the way it does because we're used to the way it looks? I don't know. What about the glue, our methods of stamping and addressing? What I'm getting at is that some people are too snobbish in their thinking about work to see the possibilities every job offers if it's done right. One way to find out what you want to do in life is to try all kinds of jobs. If you don't like working in a filling station, try a factory, an office, a shop, a farm. Not only will you find out what you want to do, but you will also pick up an amazing amount of useful information as you go along.I know a young man who's unsure whether to be a boat-builder or an accountant. I suggested, when he asked my advice, that he sit down at a typewriter and write two essays --one on theadvantages of being a boat-builder, the other on the advantage of being an accountant. Then he should write two more on the disadvantages of each job and study what he's written. You never know what's in your mind until you get busy and let it out.A lot of people seem to think that we can learn only in our teens. Kids get this impression from their elders and, on emerging from the university or armed services at the age of 22, imagine themselves "too old" to take up such a noble science as, for example, medicine.I was in my early 70s when I started my study of medicine — not for a degree, but to enable me better to experiment with a medicine we're invented in our laboratories. Two years ago I took up hydrogen-electric welding, and I became a pretty good welder. I was trying to find a means of eliminating the sputter. I relate this in no spirit of boastfulness. I just want youngsters to know that they are never "too old" to learn.Humans are producing more and more new things. The more we produce, the more people will work, and the more people will buy. Employment will snowball. There are more opportunities today than there have ever been, and they're increasing all the time. I think they're infinite. And the older I get the more I realize that the highest good is the good of the people. If I were considering a new occupation, I should weigh three things: how well it served the public; how much fun there was in it; and, of course, whether its financial reward would meet my needs.(716 words) 注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。

Key to Model Test (1) Band ThreePart I. WritingSample Writing:On Lifelong LearningWith the rapid development of modern society, lifelong learning has been increasingly important. People need to improve themselves all the time by learning in order to adapt to the fast changes and fierce competition in the society. They have to learn about the latest development and techniques to equip themselves. We can achieve lifelong education in several ways. First, you can choose distant education. Most famous universities have set up their own distant education college to help people realize their dreams. Secondly, there are various kinds of training courses and night courses. People can take advantage of their spare time to learn what they are interested in, such as English, computer skills and drawing. In addition, people can study all by themselves. They can read books in a library or a bookstore in their free time. I prefer to distant education provided by some universities. As is known, colleges have excellent faculty, modern teaching facilities and strong learning atmosphere. By distant education courses, we can enjoy these resources, learning more knowledge and making bigger and quicker progress.Part II. Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1.

Will Y ou Go Out with Me?I know that dating has changed dramatically in the past few years, and for many women, asking men outis not at all daring. But I was raised in a traditional European household where the notion of my asking a man out on a date is considered wildly naughty. Growing up, I learned that men call, ask and pay for the date. But during my three years here at Berkeley, I’ve learned otherwise.Berkeley women have brightened their social lives by asking the initiative with men. My girlfriends insist that it’s essential for women to participate actively in the dating process. “I can’t sit around and wait anymore,” my roommate once blurted out (脱口而出). “Hard as it is, I have to ask guys out --- if I want to date at all!”This is great: More women are having more fun by inviting men out, and men say they’re delighted and relieved that dating no longer depends on their willingness to take the first step. So why am I digging my nails into my hand trying to muster up (鼓起) courage to ask you out?I keep telling myself to relax. Dating is more casual today. A college date can be as harmless as studyingtogether. It’s easier, cheaper and more comfortable for everyone that way. Students have fewer anxiety attacks when they ask somebody to play tennis than when they plan a formal dinner date. They enjoy last-minute “Let’s make dinner together” dates because they not only avoid problems over what to wear and how to act, but also don’t have time to agonize (痛苦).Casual dating also encourages people to form healthy friendships before they get involved in serious relationships. My roommate and her boyfriend were friends for four months before they chemistries clicked.They went to movies, got together with mutual friends and took turns paying for their dinners out. “It was like going out with a girlfriend,” my roommate once laughed, blushing. This sort of friendship lets men and women relax and get to know each other more easily.But if we do go out for a meal, who pays? This is still confusing everyone. Y ou aren’t sure whether I’ll get the wrong idea if you treat me for dinner, and I’m not sure I won’t offend you if I insist on paying for myself. John whipped out his wallet on our first date before I could suggest we go Dutch. During our after-dinner stroll he told me he was interested in dating me in a steady basis. After I explained I was more interested in a friendship, he wanted to know why I’d let him pay for my dinner. “I’ve practically given up treating women on dates,” he complained. “When you let me pay, I thought it meant something special.”Larry, on the other hand, was hurt when I offered to pay for my meal on our first date. When I took out my wallet and asked how much I owed him, he looked at me as if I had addressed him in a foreign language.Larry muttered, “Uh, well, you really don’t owe me anything, but if you insist …” Insist, I thought, I only offered! To Larry, my gesture was a sign of rejection.But there’s no time now to worry about John and Larry --- here you come! Now remember: I believe in equality. I believe in women taking the initiative. It improves my social life, it’s more fair and more fun for everyone. Dates are no big deal --- this is modern American-style casual dating. And it’s easy, and it works.No magic formula guarantees you’ll say yes --- I just have to relax, be myself and ask you out in a relaxed, unthreatening manner. If my friends are right, you’ll be flattered (感到荣幸).Sliding into your desk, you tap my shoulder and say, “Hi, Laura, what’s up?”“Good morning,” I answer with nervous chills (寒战). “Hey, how would you like to have lunch after class on Friday?”“I’d love to,” you say.It works!!! “We have a date,” I smile.1. In the author’s family, asking men out would be considered _______.A) normal B. common C. traditional D. absurd2. According to the passage, females in Berkeley are considered to _______ when dating with males.A) take the first step B) be delighted C) sit and wait all the time D) dig their nails3. In the authors’ opinion, dating with males is just like _______.A) making dinner together B) studying together C) inviting men out D) playing tennis4. Students prefer to play tennis together than have a formal dinner together because they ________.A) are more willingly B) don’t have to pay C) have fewer anxiety D) enjoy the last minute5. According to the passage, the author’s roommate and her boyfriend _________ during their dating process.A) paid for their dinners out in turn B) studied chemistryC) spent four months together D) knew more people6. In John’s mind, if a girl lets a boy pay, _________.A) it means the girl would like him to treat her to dinnerB) it means the girl wants to offend the boyC) it means the girl expects to go steady with the boyD) it means the girl hopes to stroll with the boy after dinner7. The author is most probably _______.A) an American teaching at Berkeley B) an American studying overseasC) a foreign teacher at Berkeley D) a foreign student at Berkeley8. By dating casually, people can be encouraged to _______________________________________.9. Larry was hurt when I ____________________________________________________________.10.

Key to Model Test (1) Band ThreePart I. WritingSample Writing:On Lifelong LearningWith the rapid development of modern society, lifelong learning has been increasingly important. People need to improve themselves all the time by learning in order to adapt to the fast changes and fierce competition in the society. They have to learn about the latest development and techniques to equip themselves. We can achieve lifelong education in several ways. First, you can choose distant education. Most famous universities have set up their own distant education college to help people realize their dreams. Secondly, there are various kinds of training courses and night courses. People can take advantage of their spare time to learn what they are interested in, such as English, computer skills and drawing. In addition, people can study all by themselves. They can read books in a library or a bookstore in their free time. I prefer to distant education provided by some universities. As is known, colleges have excellent faculty, modern teaching facilities and strong learning atmosphere. By distant education courses, we can enjoy these resources, learning more knowledge and making bigger and quicker progress.Part II. Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)1. Y. 从文中的第一段第二,三句可以了解到尼古丁的这些特性,从而判断出这一说法是正确的。

北京联合大学大学英语课程(上外教版)一课一练试卷(Unit Four, Book One)Part I Writing (30 minutes)In recent years, people are developing an inseparable relationship with Internet. As is known to all, it is convenient for us to click the mouse when surfing on line, either to entertain ourselves or to meet the work’s needs.On the one hand, no one denies that Internet is currently one of the most useful media in our daily life. As a college student, I get on line every day to exchange information through e-mails with my net friends. But on the other hand, a good many people admit that they are too much addicted to Internet to maintain a regular and wholesome lifestyle.Thus, it is necessary for us to use Internet in a reasonable way and restrain from overindulgence. After all,Internet is invented to enrich our life, and to improve the efficiency of our work rather than shackle us with a chain.Part II Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)1-7 BBCACDD 8. value 9.

Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (15 minutes)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet 1. For question 1- 7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B),C) and D). For question 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.The True Story of a Young ManWhen Reginald Lindsay received a scholarship to Morehouse College in Atlanta, Georgia, what he wanted most was a good job with a good salary. But soon he became interested in the civil rights movement. At present he has a plan which he hopes will take him to Congress as a southern representative.Now in his first year at Harvard Law School, Reg is making careful plans. After earning his degree, he expects to return to the South to practice law among the poor. “I want to help them understand what their rights are and to help them achieve them,” he says. Then he hopes to run for political office at the local and state level until he is ready to try for Congress.Reg grew up in a low-income Negro section of Birmingham, Alabama. Brought up by his grandparents after his parents were divorced while he was vey young, Reg has been living through a period of far-reaching progress in race relations. In the summer of 1968 Reg himself became a good example of this progress when he became the first Negro to the workings of the Georgia State government and encourages them to seek employment there after finishing their education. “I’ve been lucky,” he says. “I seem to have been in the right place at the right time.”But luck is only part of Reg’s story, for he has made the most of opportunities that came his way. He learned to read in kindergarten and began visiting the public library regularly to borrow books. His grandparents encouraged him, though neither of them had much education, and they bought him a set of encyclopedias. “I love those books,”he remembers. “I used to come downstairs before breakfast and read short articles. I enjoyed reading about famous men, and then I would pretend to be one of them. I guess it was partly a childish game and partly an escape. It wasn’t too much fun to be a Negro when I was a kid.”While studying for his bachelor’s degree at Morehouse College, Reg worked on several political campaigns helping candidates get elected to government offices. At the same time he maintained a “B” average while majoring in political science. He worked as a student advisor to earn extra money for his college expenses, and he was granted a scholarship for a year of study at the University of Valencia in Spain.With just two more years to complete at Harvard Law School, which also gave him a scholarship, Reg has made a good start on his professional career. He says, “The good life for me is the kind of life where I can find satisfaction in public service.”1.When Reginald Lindsay received a scholarship to Morehouse College, he wanted _______.A.to get a good job with very good pay B.to move to the southern part of CongressC.to lead the civil rights movement there D.to become a representative of his religion2.After earning his degree from Harvard Law School, Reginald plans to ______.A.return to his hometown to start his career as a lawyer B.go back to the South to help the poor understand their rights C.run for local office to make progress on the civil rights movement D.try for Congress by helping his poor neighbors to achieve their rights 3.Reginald started to face a problem of ______ when he was very young.A.his identity as an outstanding boy B.his grandparents’ ill-treatment C.his parents’ divorce D.his classmates’ envy4._______ Reginald became the first Negro student appointed to a special new program.A.In the year 1968 B.When he was eight years old C.After his parents’ divorce D.Just before his grandpa’s death 5.In what way did Reginald’s grandparents encourage him to read?A.They sent him to kindergarten. B.They led him to public library.C.They borrow books for him. D.They bought him encyclopedias.6.How did Reginald escape from the realities of life?A.He read about famous people.

Listening Comprehension (略)Part IV. Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)Section AQuestions 47 to 56 are based on the following passage.A)transplant B)solution C)gradually D)transport E)elementalF)conflict G)continually H)mobile I)couples J)agriculturalK)including L)compromise M)requires N)primary O)consistingThe typical pre-industrial family not only had a good many children, but numerous other dependents as well---grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins. Such "extended" families were suited for survival in slow paced __47__ societies. But such families are hard to __48__. They are immobile. Industrialism demanded masses of workers ready and able to move off the land in pursuit of jobs, and to move again whenever necessary. Thus the extended family __49__ shed its excess weight and the so-called "nuclear" family emerged---a stripped-down, portable family unit __50__ only of parents and a small set of children. This new style family, far more __51__ than the traditional extended family, became the standard model in all the industrial countries. Super-industrialism, however, the next stage of eco-technological development, __52__ even higher mobility. Thus we may expect many among the people of the future to carry the streamlining process, a step further by remaining children, cutting the family down to its more __53__ components, a man and a woman. Two people, perhaps with matched careers, will prove more efficient at navigating through education and social status, through job changes and geographic relocations, than the ordinarily child-cluttered family. A __54__ may be the postponement of children, rather than childlessness. Men and women today are often torn in __55__ between a commitment to career and a commitment to children. In the future, many __56__ will sidestep this problem by deferring the entire task of raising children until after retirement.Section BPassage OneQuestion 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.Now let us look at how we read. When we read a printed text, our eyes move across a page in short, jerky movement. We recognize words usually when our eyes are still when they fixate. Each time they fixate, we see a group of words. This is known as the recognition span or the visual span. The length of time of which the eyes stop ----the duration of the fixation——varies considerably from person to person. It also varies within any one person according to his purpose in reading and his familiarity with the text. Furthermore, it can be affected by such factors as lighting and tiredness.Unfortunately, in the past, many reading improvement courses have concentrated too much on how our eyes move across the printed page. As a result of this misleading emphasis on the purely visual aspects of reading, numerous exercises have been devised to train the eyes to see more words at one fixation. For instance, in some exercises, words are flashed on to a screen for, say, a tenth or a twentieth of a second. One of the exercises has required students to fix their eyes on some central point, taking in the words on either side. Such word patterns are often constructed in the shape of rather steep pyramids so the reader takes in more and more words at each successive fixation. All these exercise s are very clever, but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text efficiently. Reading requires the ability to understand the relationship between words. Consequently, for these reasons, many experts have now begun to question the usefulness of eye training, especially since any approach which trains a person to read isolated words and phrases would seem unlikely to help him in reading a continuous text.57. The time of the recognition span can be affected by the following facts except ________ .A. one’s familiarity with the textB. one’s purpose in readingC. the length of a group of wordsD. lighting and tiredness58. The author may believe that reading ______.A. requires a reader to take in more words at each fixationB. requires a reader to see words more quicklyC. demands a deeply-participating mindD. demands more mind than eyes59. What does the author mean by saying “but it’s one thing to improve a person’s ability to see words and quite another thing to improve his ability to read a text e fficiently.” in the second para graph?A. The ability to see words is not needed when an efficient reading is conducted.B. The reading exercises mentioned can’t help to improve both the ability to see and to comprehend words.C. The readin g exercises mentioned can’t help to improve an efficient reading.D. The reading exercises mentioned has done a great job to improve one’s ability to see words.60. Which of the following is NOT true?A. The visual span is a word or a group of words we see each time.B. Many experts began to question the efficiency of eye training.C. The emphasis on the purely visual aspects is misleading.D. The eye training will help readers in reading a continuous text.61. The tune of the author in writing this article is ________A .criticalB .neutralC .pessimisticD .optimisticPassage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.In bringing up children, every parent watches eagerly the child’s acquisition of each new skill——the first spoken words, the first independent steps, or the beginning of reading and writing. It is often tempting to hurry the child beyond his natural learning rate, but this can set up dangerous feelings of failure and states of worry in the child. This might happen at any stage. A baby might be forced to use a toilet too early, a young child might be encouraged to learn to read before he knows the meaning of the words he reads. On the other hand, though, if a child is left alone too much, or without any learning opportunities, he loses his natural enthusiasm for life and his desire to find out new things for himself.Parents vary greatly in their degree of strictness towards their children. Some may be especially strict in money matters. Others are serious overtimes of coming home at night or punctuality for meals. In general, the controls imposed represent the needs of the parents and the values of the community as much as the child’s own happiness.As regards the development of moral standards in the growing child, consistency is very important in parental teaching. To forbid a thing one day and excuse it the next is no foundation for morality. Also, parents should realize that “example is better than precept”. If they are not sincere and do not practise what they preach(说教),their children may grow confused, and emotionally insecure. When they grow old enough to think for themselves, and realize they have been to some extent fooled, a sudden awareness of a marked difference between their parents’ principles and their morals can be a dangerous disappointment.62. Eagerly watching the child’s acquisition of new skills _______.A. should be avoidedB. is universal among parentsC. sets up dangerous states of worry in the childD. will make him lose interest in learning new things63. In the process of children’s learning new skills parents _______.A. should not expect too much of themB. should create as many learning opportunities as possibleC. should achieve a balance between pushing them too hard and leaving them on their ownD. should encourage them to read before they know the meaning of the words they read64. The second paragraph mainly tells us that _______.A. parents should be strict with their childrenB. parents vary in their strictness towards their children according to the situationC. parental controls reflect only the needs of the parents and the values of the communityD. parental restrictions vary, and are not always enforced for the benefit of the children alone65. The word “precept” in paragraph 3 probably means _______.A. ideaB. punishmentC. behaviorD. instruction66. In moral matters, parents should _______.A. observe the rules themselvesB. consistently ensure the security of their childrenC. forbid things which have no foundation in moralityD. be aware of the marked difference between adults and childrenPart V. Cloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A. B. C. and D. on the right side of the paper. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.For the past two years, I have been working on students’ evaluation of classroom teaching. I have kept a record of informal conversations __67__ some 300 students from at __68__ twenty one colleges and universities.

What’s more, he had lung cancer. When he finished the first half of his voyage and arrived in Australia, he could not even walk on shore without help. His friends attempted to dissuade him from continuing the adventure, but he didn’t listen. Instead he set sail again to conquer the treacherous Cape Horn. Clipper ships had sailed round Cape Horn in the nineteenth century, but they had plenty of able-bodied men aboard. In contrast, Chichester was all alone and had to cope with every danger all single-handed. At timesthe sea became so rough that it took all his strength to stop his boat from turning over.

For questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Table Manners: a Cultural DifferenceFor many Westerners, the Chinese dinner table is a place where they have no idea how to act. There are no forks or knives for the Westerners to use. The Chinese people makes great, sweeping arm movements that go over large sections of the table, passing over both food and friends alike. The scene is fantastic(非常好的), but it leaves many foreigners at a loss(让……迷惑)for what to do.In most Western restaurants and homes there are rules about how to talk, eat and sit that are highly restrictive(受限制的), and they create an environment that is completely different from what we find here in China. In my childhood home, dinner was enjoyed with soft voices, and the topics open for discussion were very much restricted. We were not allowed to bring up anything that was potentially upsetting; body functions(上洗手间), bugs, murder and crimes in general were all strictly forbidden topics. If I had to leave the table to use the toilet, I had to excuse myself without mentioning what I was really going to do. "May I be excused, please? I need to wash my hands." I would say.My mother would say, "Sure." My father would often play a joke on us by saying, "Y our hands don't look dirty to me!"As for eating, we did it quietly. No eating noises were allowed.Everything must be done as quietly as possible. Therefore, we had to eat with our mouths closed. To make a loud noise was, perhaps, the worst offence possible. While drinking soup or coffee or wine, we had to try to be quiet. If any sound whatever was made when eating and drinking, it constituted bad manners! With that in mind, it was, of course, unthinkable to speak with one's mouth full of food, so speaking only occurred(发生)before or after one had taken in food and swallowed(吞咽)it.How one sits at the table is also prescribed(被规定的). One is to sit up straight with the left hand below the table holding some paper or cloth and the right hand holding the fork or spoon. The only time one is allowed to have both hands on the table is when one is using a knife to cut something, but as soon as the cutting is done, the left hand goes back under the table. Also, elbows(肘)are not allowed on the table. Therefore, one leans the arm against the edge of the table just below the elbow. One should never reach for any food on the table; one should ask someone sitting near it to give it to you. "Would you please pass the potatoes?" "May I trouble you for the salt?" These are phrases that you are likely to hear on any given night of the week at a family dinner.When a guest comes from the West to enjoy a meal with you, it would be a good idea for you to explain to your guest what will happen at dinner and to find out if a fork would be easier to use than chopsticks(筷子). In my time in China, I have come to enjoy Chinese table manners far more than those prescribed by my own culture, but for many it is impossible to adjust to. The best policy is to ask your guest questions to find out what he or she is comfortable with.1.How do many foreigners feel when they sit at a Chinese dinner table?A. fantasticB. customaryC. confusedD. indifferent2. Which of the following topic is not allowed at table according to Western manners?A. school workB. holidaysC. newsD. body functions3.

I need to wash my hands.”C. “Excuse me, I want to go to the toilet.”D. leaving the table is forbidden5. When is a person allowed to speak at a western table?A. speaking is forbiddenB. speaking in a low voiceC. speaking with one's mouth full of foodD. speaking before or after he had taken in food and swallowed it6. In most Western restaurants and homes, when people want to get some food beyond reach on the table, what will they do?A. reach for them himselfB. help themselvesC. let their neighbors to pass themD. ask the hostess to fetch them7. What can we infer from the passage?A. The author likes Chinese table manners more than those in his/her own culture.B. People enjoy the exchange of words at a western family dinner.C. The author comes from a city in China.D. Although different in table rules, Western and Chinese restaurants and homes have a somewhat similar environment.8.

What is emotional intelligence exactly? According to Goleman Emotional Intelligence consists of five key elements.The first is knowing one‟s own emotions: being able to recognize that one is in an emotional state and having the ability to identify which emotion is being experienced even if it is not a particularly comfortable feeling to admit to e.g. jealously or envy.Emotional awareness can then lead to managing one‟s emotions. This involves dealing with emotions like jealousy 、resentment and anger etc, that one may have difficulty accepting by perhaps giving oneself comfort food or doing nice things when one is feeling low. Many people do this instinctively by buying chocolate or treating themselves; others are able to wrap themselves in positive thoughts or …mother themselves‟. There are of course many people who are incapable of doing this and so need to be taught.The third area is self-motivation. Our emotions can simultaneously empower and hinder us so it is important to develop the ability to control them.Strategies can be learnt whereby emotions are set aside to be dealt with at a later date. For example when dealing with the success or good fortune of others it is better not to suppress any negative emotion that arises. One just has to recognize it is there. And then one just needs to be extra careful when making decisions and not allow one‟s emotions to cloud the issue by letting them dictate how one functions with that person. The separation of logic and emotion is not easy when dealing with people.As social beings we need to be able to deal with other people which brings us to the next item on Goleman‟s list namely: recognizing emotions in other people. This means in effect having or developing “social radar” i n learning to read the weather systems around individual or groups of people. Obviously leading on from this is the ability to handle relationships. If we can recognize understand and then deal with other people‟s emotions we can function better both socially and professionally. Not being tangible emotions are difficult to analy ze and quantify compounded by the fact tha t each area in the list above does not operate in isolation. Each of us has misread a friend‟s or a colleague‟s behavior to u s and other people. The classic example is the shy person categorized by some people as arrogant and distant and by others as lively and friendly and very personable. How can two different groups make a definitive analysis of someone that is so strikingly contradictory? And yet this happens on a daily basis in all our relationships — even to the point of misreading the behavior of those close to us! In the work scenario this can cost money. And so it makes economic sense for business to be aware of it and develop strategies for employing people and dealing with their employees.All common sense you might say. Goleman himself has even suggested that emotional intelligence is just a new way of describing competence; what some people might call savior-faire or savoir-vivre. Part of the problem here is that society or some parts of society have forgotten that these skills ever existed and have found the need to re-invent them.But the emergence of Emotional Intelligence as a theory suggests that the family situations and other social interactions where social skills were honed in the past are fast disappearing so that people now sadly need to be re-skilled.1. Emotional Intelligence as a theory ______.[A] was unheard of until the 1970s [B] is attributed to Daniel Goleman[C] consists of at least five key areas [D] is attributed to Mayer and Salovey2. Which is one way of controlling emotions?[A] To put them to the side to deal with later. [B] To use both logic and emotion.[C] To suppress the negative ones. [D] To hinder them.3. As well as being intangible what is the problem with emotions?[A] They are difficult. [B] They are compounded. [C] They are difficult to qualify. [D] They do not operate in isolation.4. Misreading the behavior of others ______.[A] is always expensive [B] is a classic example [C] happens on a daily basis [D] is most common with those close to us5. Employers need to ______.[A] save money [B] work scenario [C] know about people‟s emotions D] employ and deal with employees6.

The fact that the idea of Emotional Intelligence has emerged suggests that social interactivities______.[A] are honed [B] happen in the family [C] need to be re-skilled [D] are becoming less frequent8. Knowing one‟s emotions involves both ____________.9. The ability to recognize emotions in other people is like ____________.10. Handling relationships is the key to ____________.Part III Listening Comprehension(略)Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)Section AThe development of Jamestown in Virginia during the second half of the seventeenth century was closely __47__ to the making and use of bricks. There were several ___48____ reasons why bricks became important to the colony. Although the forests could __49____ supply sufficient timber, the __50____ of lumbering was extremely difficult, particularly because of the lack of roads. Later, when the timber on the peninsula had been depleted, wood had to be brought from some distance. Building stones were also in short __51___. However, as clay was plentiful, it was inevitable that the colonists would turn to brick- making.In addition to practical reasons for using brick as the principal ___52___ material, there was also an ideological reason. Brick __53____ durability and permanence. The Virginia Company of London instructed the colonists to build hospitals and new __54____ out of brick. In 1662, the Town Act of the Virginia Assembly provided for the construction of thirty-two brick buildings and prohibited the use of wood as a construction material. Had this law ever been successfully enforced, Jamestown would have been a model city. Instead, the residents failed to ___55___ fully with the law. By 1699, Jamestown had ___56___ into a pile of rubble with only three or four habitable houses.Section BPassage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.Dam is a barrier constructed across a stream or river to impound water and raise its level. The most common reasons for building dams are to concentrate the natural fall of a river at a given site, thus making it possible to generate electricity; to direct water from rivers into canals and irrigation and water-supply systems; to increase river depths for navigational purposes; to control water flow during times of flood and drought; and to create artificial lakes for recreational use. Many dams fulfill several of these functions. In the United States the network of dams under the Tennessee Valley Authority is an outstanding example of a multipurpose dam development.The first dam of which record exists was built about 4000 BC to divert the Nile in Egypt in order to provide a site for the city of Memphis. Many ancient earth dams, including a number of dams built by the Babylonians, were part of elaborate irrigation systems that transformed unproductive regions into fertile plains capable of supporting large populations. Because of the ravages of periodic floods, very few dams more than a century old are still standing. The construction of virtually indestructible dams of appreciable height and storage capacity became possible after the development of Portland cement concrete and the mechanization of earth-moving and materials-handling equipment.Controlling and using water by means of dams profoundly affects the economic prospects of vase areas. One of the first stages in the progress of developing countries usually involves gaining the ability to use water for power generation, agriculture, and flood protection.57. What is the main idea of this passage?A. To tell the main functions of dams.B. To date the existence of the first dam.C. To emphasize the economic effects of dam.D. To give a brief introduction to dam.58. Which of the following is not mentioned as one the common reasons for building dams?A. People build dams to generate electricity.B. Dams are used to control water flow in time of flood and drought.C. People build dams to divert rivers.D. Dams serves as part of the irrigation system.59. The word “ravage” in the second paragraph may mean ____.A. destructionB. occurrenceC. destroyD. savage60. Many ancient dams mainly served the need to ____.A. generate electricityB. create artificial lakes for recreational useC. irrigate fieldsD. protect people from the suffering of floods61. According to the passage, when did the construction of virtually indestructible dams become possible?A. After many ancient earth dams were destroyed.B. Not until the development of cement concrete and earth moving machines.C. About 4000 BC.D. Before the turn of last century.Passage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage.“It hurts me more than you ,” and “This is for your own good.” These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room., stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizin g we‟ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klo mpus who says of her students “so passive” and wonders what happened. Nothing was demanded of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children‟s passivity. “We‟re not training kids to work any more.” Says Klompus. “We‟re talking about a generation of kids who‟ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying …go look it up‟, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It‟s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It‟s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it‟s for their own good. It‟s time to start telling them no again.62. Children are becoming more inactive in study because ____.A. they watch TV too oftenB. they have done too much homeworkC. they have to fulfill too many dutiesD. teachers are too strict with them63. To such children as described in the passage ____.A. it is easier to say no than to say yesB. neither is easy—to say yes or to say noC. it is easier to say yes than to say noD. neither is difficult—to say yes or to say no64. We l earn from the passage that the author‟s mother used to lay emphasis on ____.A. learning LatinB. natural developmentC. disciplineD. education at school.65. By “permissive period in education” the author means a time ____.A. when children are allowed to do what they wish toB. when everything can be taught at schoolC. when every child can be educatedD. when children are permitted to receive education66. The main idea of the passage is that ____.A. parents should leave their children aloneB. kids should have more activities at schoolC. it‟s time to be more strict with our kidsD. parents should always set a good example to their kidsPart V Cloze (15 minutes)Part VI Translation (5 minutes)87.If he had known this would happen, ________________(他当初也许会以不同方式行事).88. ____________(他刚到家)when it started raining.89.A minute ago the old lady ____________(撕开信封)with great excitement.90.

Will Y ou Go Out with Me?I know that dating has changed dramatically in the past few years, and for many women, asking men outis not at all daring. But I was raised in a traditional European household where the notion of my asking a man out on a date is considered wildly naughty. Growing up, I learned that men call, ask and pay for the date. But during my three years here at Berkeley, I’ve learned otherwise.Berkeley women have brightened their social lives by asking the initiative with men. My girlfriends insist that it’s essential for women to participate actively in the dating process. “I can’t sit around and wait anymore,” my roommate once blurted out (脱口而出). “Hard as it is, I have to ask guys out --- if I want to date at all!”This is great: More women are having more fun by inviting men out, and men say they’re delighted and relieved that dating no longer depends on their willingness to take the first step. So why am I digging my nails into my hand trying to muster up (鼓起) courage to ask you out?I keep telling myself to relax. Dating is more casual today. A college date can be as harmless as studyingtogether. It’s easier, cheaper and more comfortable for everyone that way. Students have fewer anxiety attacks when they ask somebody to play tennis than when they plan a formal dinner date. They enjoy last-minute “Let’s make dinner together” dates because they not only avoid problems over what to wear and how to act, but also don’t have time to agonize (痛苦).Casual dating also encourages people to form healthy friendships before they get involved in serious relationships. My roommate and her boyfriend were friends for four months before they chemistries clicked.They went to movies, got together with mutual friends and took turns paying for their dinners out. “It was like going out with a girlfriend,” my roommate once laughed, blushing. This sort of friendship lets men and women relax and get to know each other more easily.But if we do go out for a meal, who pays? This is still confusing everyone. Y ou aren’t sure whether I’ll get the wrong idea if you treat me for dinner, and I’m not sure I won’t offend you if I insist on paying for myself. John whipped out his wallet on our first date before I could suggest we go Dutch. During our after-dinner stroll he told me he was interested in dating me in a steady basis. After I explained I was more interested in a friendship, he wanted to know why I’d let him pay for my dinner. “I’ve practically given up treating women on dates,” he complained. “When you let me pay, I thought it meant something special.”Larry, on the other hand, was hurt when I offered to pay for my meal on our first date. When I took out my wallet and asked how much I owed him, he looked at me as if I had addressed him in a foreign language.Larry muttered, “Uh, well, you really don’t owe me anything, but if you insist …” Insist, I thought, I only offered! To Larry, my gesture was a sign of rejection.But there’s no time now to worry about John and Larry --- here you come! Now remember: I believe in equality. I believe in women taking the initiative. It improves my social life, it’s more fair and more fun for everyone. Dates are no big deal --- this is modern American-style casual dating. And it’s easy, and it works.No magic formula guarantees you’ll say yes --- I just have to relax, be myself and ask you out in a relaxed, unthreatening manner. If my friends are right, you’ll be flattered (感到荣幸).Sliding into your desk, you tap my shoulder and say, “Hi, Laura, what’s up?”“Good morning,” I answer with nervous chills (寒战). “Hey, how would you like to have lunch after class on Friday?”“I’d love to,” you say.It works!!! “We have a date,” I smile.1. In the author’s family, asking men out would be considered _______.A) normal B. common C. traditional D. absurd2. According to the passage, females in Berkeley are considered to _______ when dating with males.A) take the first step B) be delighted C) sit and wait all the time D) dig their nails3. In the authors’ opinion, dating with males is just like _______.A) making dinner together B) studying together C) inviting men out D) playing tennis4. Students prefer to play tennis together than have a formal dinner together because they ________.A) are more willingly B) don’t have to pay C) have fewer anxiety D) enjoy the last minute5. According to the passage, the author’s roommate and her boyfriend _________ during their dating process.A) paid for their dinners out in turn B) studied chemistryC) spent four months together D) knew more people6. In John’s mind, if a girl lets a boy pay, _________.A) it means the girl would like him to treat her to dinnerB) it means the girl wants to offend the boyC) it means the girl expects to go steady with the boyD) it means the girl hopes to stroll with the boy after dinner7. The author is most probably _______.A) an American teaching at Berkeley B) an American studying overseasC) a foreign teacher at Berkeley D) a foreign student at Berkeley8. By dating casually, people can be encouraged to _______________________________________.9. Larry was hurt when I ____________________________________________________________.10.
