After buying .some magazines to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase. I had left three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt did not seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railwaytickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs tumbled out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found.When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me suspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case, I told him that it was an old, brown — looking object no different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the artic les I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me.After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This had not happened fortunately, for after a time, I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was .soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten— shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I could not help blushing and glanced up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too!1. The writer needed the receipt ____.A. to claim his suitcaseB. to pay at the luggage officeC. to prove that he had paid at the luggage officeD. to prove that he had bought the suitcase2. The writer felt foolish because ____.A. he couldn't find his receiptB. he hadn't really lost his receipt at allC. he had to fill in a formD. the assistant was laughing at him3. There weren't ______ people waiting at the luggage office.A. very muchB. a lotC. lotsD. very many4. 'situation' means .A. incidentB. eventC. placeD. position5. ' wrote them down ' means ____.A. copied themB. made a note of themC. signed themD. pointed at themPassage2The word conservation has a thrifty meaning. To conserve is to save and protect, to leave what we ourselves enjoy in such good condition that others may also share theenjoyment.Our forefathers had no idea that human population would increase faster than the supplies of raw materials: most of them, even until very recently, had the foolish idea that the treasures were "limitless" and "inexhaustible". Most of the citizens of earlier generations knew little or nothing about the complicated and delicate system that runs all through nature, and which means that, as in a living body, an unhealthy condition of one part will sooner or later be harmful to all the othersFifty years ago, nature study was not part of the school work; scientific forestry was a new idea; timber was still cheap because it could be brought in any quantity from distant woodlands; soil destruction and river floods were not national problems; nobody had yet studied long— term climatic cycles in relation to proper land use; even the word "conservation "had nothing of the meaning that it has for us today.For the sake of ourselves and those who will come after us, we must now set about repairing the mistakes of our forefathers. Conservation should, therefore, be made a part of everyone's daily life. To know about the water table (地下水位) in the ground is just as important to us as a knowledge of the basic arithmetic formulas. We need to know why all watersheds need the protection of plant life and why the running current of streams and rivers must be made to yield their full benefit to the soil before they finally escape to the sea. We need to be taught the duty of planting trees as well as of cutting them. We need to know the importance of big, mature trees, because living space for most of man's fellow creatures on this planet is figured not only in square measure of surface but also in cubic volume above the earth. In brief, it should be our goal to restore as much of the original beauty of nature as we can.6. The author's altitude towards current situation in the exploitation of natural resources isA. criticalB. neutralC. positiveD. suspicious7. According to the author, the greatest mistake of our forefathers was that _____A. they had no idea about scientific forestryB. they were not aware of the significance of nature studyC. they had little or no sense of environmental protectionD. they had no idea of how to make good use of raw materials8. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that earlier generations didn't realizeA. the importance of the proper use of landB. the value of the beauty of natureC. the harmfulness of soil destruction and river floodsD. the interdependence of water, soil, and living things9. To avoid the mistakes of our forefathers, the author suggests that ______.A. we plant more treesB. we return to natureC. natural sciences be taught to everybodyD. environmental education be directed toward everyone10. What does the author imply by saying "living space ''is figured ''also in cubic volume above the earth" ? ( para. 3 )A. We need to take some measures to protect spaceB. Our living space should measured in cubic volumeC. Our living space on the earth is getting smaller and smallerD. We must preserve good living conditions for both birds and animalsⅣ T ranslate the following phrases（翻译下列短语：汉语译成英语；英语译成汉语。

Each passage is followed by five questions orincomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C,D. You shoulddecide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer-Sheet.Passage 1A happy life and a meaningful life are not the same .Leading a happy life is associated with being a “taker”,while leading a meaningful life corresponds with being a “giver”.Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want. People who are happy tent to think that life is easy. They are in good physical health and able to buy the things that they need and want. Happiness is about satisfying our needs and desires. The pursuit(追求) of happiness is often associated with selfish behavior. Animals have needs and desires and they can feel happy too. What sets human beings apart form animals is not the pursuit of happiness, but the pursuit of meaning, which is unique to humans.We can often find meaning in helping others or marking a sacrifice( 牺牲) for a “greater good”. Meaning often comes at the expense of happiness. When people have invested themselves in something bigger than themselves, they worry more and have higher levels of stress and anxiety in their lives than happy people. Volunteering ( 做义工） in rural schools, for example, is meaningful but also involves hardship.Happiness, like any emotion, is felt in the here and now --it eventually fades away .However, meaning is enduring. It connects the past to the present to the future.46.What is the main idea if the passage ？A. A happy life is basically different form a meaningful life.B. Leading a happy life is connected with being a “take”.C. Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want.D. Meaning connected the past to the present to the future.47. Paragraph 2 tells us that the pursuit of happiness.A. sets humans apart form animalsB. is associated with selfish behaviorC. means to give up what one hasD. is unique to human being48. Form Paragraph 3 we know that.A. helping others can make our life meaningfulB. meaning comes together with happinessC. happy people have higher levels of anxietyD. volunteering in rural schools makes a happy life49. It is implied in Paragraph 4 that.A. meaning will disappear sooner or laterB. living a happy life means to be a “giver”C. happiness lasts a relatively short period of timeD. making a sacrifice for a “greater good” brings us happiness50. The passage is organized by.A. giving examplesB. making contrastsC. definingD. classifyingPassage 2Our traditional belief has it that morning larks are most likely to be healthy, wealthy and wise .But those who are to bed and early to rise do not always have the upper hand (占上风). Researchers have revealed that night owls(夜猫子) are generally brighter and wealthier than able to get up early in the morning.Experts examined the habits of 1,000 youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or preferred to go to bed early. School performance and inductive(归纳的) reasoning were measured and academic (学业的) ades in the major subjects were also taken into consideration.The results show that evening types score higher than morning types on inductive reason in which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and academic performance .The night owls also have a greater capacity to think conceptually (概念性地) and analyze. Such abilities have been linked to creative thinking, better jobs and higher incomes.Morning larks, however, often get better exam results in school, possibly because lessons are held at wrong time of day for night owls.51. The underlined expression”morning larks”in Paragraph 1refers to .A. birds which scream late at nightB. birds which sing early in the morningC. People who like to stay up late at nightD. people who are early to rise in the morning52. Traditionally, we hold that.A. Morning larks do not always have the upper handB. Nights owls are generally brighter and wealthierC. Morning larks tend to be healthy, wealthy and wiseD. Night owls often get better exam results in school53. Why did expels examine the teenagers on their habits?A. To measure their inductive reasoning.B. To measure their school performance.C. To determine whether they are night owls or not.D. To know their academic grades in major subjects.54. Paragraph 3 tells US that.A. night owls have a poorer capacity to analyzeB. night owls score higher on inductive reasoningC. morning larks are more likely to get better jobsD. morning larks are more likely to get higher incomes55. Morning larks often score higher in exams, possible because.A. they are generally brighterB. they are early to bed and early to riseC. they have a greater capacity to analyzeD. the arrangement of lessons fits their body clocksPassage 3While drunken driving may be decreasing, traffic safety experts remain troubled how to cope with another alcohol-related problem; drunken pedestrian( 行人) 。

Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1“If you want to see a thing wel l, reach out (伸出手) and touch it!”That may seem a strange thing to say. But touching things can help you to see them better. Your eyes can tell you that a glass ball is round. But by holding it in your hands, you can feel how smooth (光滑) and cool the ball is. You can feel how heavy the glass is. When you feel all these about the ball, you really see it. With your skin, you can feel better. For example, your fingers can tell the difference between two coins in your pocket. You can feel a little drop of water on the back of your hand, too.All children soon learn what “Don’t touch!” means. They hear it often. Yet most of us keep on touching things as we grow up. In shops, we touch things as we might buy: food, clothes. To see something well, we have to touch it. There are ways of learning to see well by feeling. One way is to close your eyes and try to feel everything that is touching your skin. Feel the shoes on your feet, the clothes on your body, the air on your skin. At first, it is not easy to feel these things. You are too used to (习惯于) them!Most museums are just for looking. But today some museums have some things to touch. Their signs say, “Do touch!” There you can feel everything on show. If we want to see better, reach out and touch. Then you will really see!61. By touching things,________ .A. you will have a strange feelingB. you will learn how to reach out your handC. you can know them betterD. you can tell what colors they are62.

People who don’t own them are paying high prices when they can find one for sale. It’s more remarkable when you realize that VW doesn’t even make them anymore!A spokesman for V olkswagen of America says there were about five million “Bugs” on American roads in 1977.That was the last year they were shipped to America. VW estimates that about four million of them are still running and running and running.Used car dealers say they can’t keep “Bugs” on their lots these days. They feel it’s because these cars have a history of reliable, inexpensive transportation. The cars average about 30 miles per gallon of gas.But all hasn’t been smooth going for the “Bugs”. The heating system is poor. And since it travels very close to the ground, larger cars tend to splash it with winter’s snow and mud. Some in the safety field consider the Beetle as defenseless against heavier cars. But the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has nothing that shows any problem with them at all.66.

For thousands of years, people in different part of the world have worn very different types of clothing. There are four big reasons for this.One reason might be religion. In many Moslem countries, women must wear veils to hide their faces. The veils must be worn in public. Veils are part of the Moslem religion. The second reason is that different materials are used in different countries. For instance, in France the materials used in clothing may be cotton, silk, wool, or many other man made materials. Most people in China wear cotton.The ways clothes are made are also very different. This is another reason why people dress differently. Western countries rely on machines to make most of their clothing. Someone living inIndia can use only hand power to make the clothing he needs.World wide differences in customs also lead to differences in clothing. A Mexican farmer wears a straw hat with a brim up. In China, a farmer wears a straw hat with a brim down. Both hats are used to protect the farmers from the sun. Some of these customs have come down through thousands of years.71. If you want to learn about the differences about people in the world, you________.A. should know the ways to study other landsB. should know the four big reasons given in the passageC. may study the different types of clothing people wearD. may be surprised by the ways people wear hats72.

Perhaps you should try a Segway!The Segway is perfect for short journey. It´s an electric vehicle that consists of a platform between two wheels,with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. To ride it,you step up onto the platform,and control the Segway by moving your body. Lean forwards to go faster,and backwards to slow down.On older models, direction is controlled by a twist grip(扭转把手)on the left handlebar. This varies the speeds between the two motors, a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the Segway to the left. With newer models you simply lean to the left or right. Meanwhile, a gyroscope(陀螺仪)detects your movements and prevents the machine from falling over. The Segway has a maximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. After that,you need to plug it in and recharge the battery.Segways are used for a variety of purposes. People with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. Some golfers use them as an alternative to the golf cart. And dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. A few police forcesuse Seg-ways,too. They allow officers to move quickly whilst maintaining contact with the public. They´ re also becoming a common sight on airport. However, the most popular use is in tourism, particularly for city tours. Visit any major tourist city in summer,sit outside a cafe for a while and there´ s a good chance you’ll see a group of tourists passing on Segways.第21题What is the Segway according to this passage?A.A pole that connects two handlebars.B.A newly appeared public traffic vehicle.C.A bicycle with a platform between two wheels.D.An electric two-wheeled vehicle for short trips.第22题How do you turn to the left on Segways of newer models?A.Lean to the left.B.Adjust the twist grip.C.Press the left bar.D.Control the gyroscope.第23题How far can you travel on a Segway at most?A.Less than 19 km.B.About 19 km.C.About 38 km.D.More than 38 km.第24题The last paragraph focuses on______.A.what a Segway is likeB.where to find a SegwayC.how to control a SegwayD.when a Segway is useful上一题下一题(25~28/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Today was the day that they had enough money in hand to make a down payment on the house. But the real estate(房地产)agent informed them that she had received another offer for the house. Although the other offer was slightly less than that of Nancy and John´s, that person with the new offer was willing to pay the whole amount at once. The owner,in urgent need of money,wanted to accept the second offer.Nancy and John looked at each other with disappointed looks. They walked back home feeling very low about having lost the house. Soon they recovered and involved themselves into their daily lives,though once in a while Nancy would sink into a mild depression over losing the house.One day Nancy woke up in the morning feeling even lower than usual. She kept feeling sick,even lost interest in her routine coffee. She put all these symptoms down to the stress of working hard and losing her dream house. A week passed and she seemed to get worse. John was worried and insisted on taking her to the doctor. The doctor, after taking a few tests, informed them with a huge smile that Nancy was two months pregnant! John and Nancy were overjoyed but also worried about not having their own house before the baby was born.One evening Nancy wandered into the street where her dream house was,and as she passed by it,she was surprised to see that there were notices stuck on all the houses. On closer examination she found that the notices were for all the residents to move out of the houses as they were building a highway and the whole row of houses needed to be pulled down. Nancy suddenly realized that not getting her dream house had been a blessing in disguise. She thanked God and decided to be happy with the blessings she had and started looking forward to the birth of her child.第25题Why did Nancy and her husband lose their dream house?A.They couldn´ t pay the whole amount for the house at once.B.Someone else offered more money for the house.C.They couldn´t afford the advance for the house.D.The house owner decided not to sell the house.第26题How did they feel after they lost their dream house?A.They felt sorry and hardly recovered.B.They felt relieved but with little regret.C.They enjoyed their daily lives all the same.D.They were depressed but tried to adjust themselves.第27题What did Nancy find about the house one day?A.It would be on sale again.B.It would be pulled down.C.It had been redecorated.D.It had been emptied.第28题What does the phrase "a blessing in disguise" in the last paragraph mean?A.A good luck.B.A dirty trick.C.A secret wish.D.A false alarm.上一题下一题(29~32/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before. We want to make everyone comfortable and at ease,but we do always get the same questions in advance of a trip.So here I will give you some travel tips. What should I wear?If you´ re lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater. You’ll need it—the desert gets chilly at night. During the day, the temperature will be agreeable and comfortable. Any other time,pack as if you´re going to Phoenix or Vegas in August. For the ladies,bathing suits are normal if there´ s a pool where you ´ re going, but leave the string bikini at home—it is a Muslim country,after all. Last,if you are planning on visiting any mosques or certain parts of upper Egypt,ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbow,and no shorts for men or women in those areas. What special things do I need to pack?One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is an Evian Mister, a sprayer with a fine mist of Evian water. You may be able to find it in your local drug store. Spray a little on your face or head,and your body temperature will feel like it´s dropped 10 or 15 degrees. Other items include your camera,sun block and extra batteries.How do I communicate with home?Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria. If you have international calling on your phone, you should be able to use it—AT&T and Sprint both work internationally for sure,but make sure you have the international coverage. A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile, but for most people these days a cell phone is fine. What medical preparation do I need?In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called " Pharoah´s Revenge". The thing that knocks out Pharoah´ s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine,and is available at every drugstore for $1 a box. DON´T drink local water,DO drink bottled water,avoid the skins of fresh vegetables,and you’ll be fine.第29题What clothing is proper for ladies visiting a mosque?A.String bikinis.B.Long-sleeve clothes.C.Bathing suits.D.Shorts.第30题What´ s the use of an Evian Mister?A.To relieve your thirst.B.To prevent sunburns.C.To cool yourself down.D.To drive away insects.第31题What information is provided about distance communication?A.A cell phone is enough for most people.B.AT&T and Sprint offer free service in Egypt.C.A satellite phone doesn´ t work in Mid-Egypt.D.Internet cafes are only available in big cities.第32题What does "Pharoah´ s Revenge" probably refer to in the last paragraph?A.A curse.B.A legend.C.A disease.D.A vegetable.上一题下一题(33~36/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.It was a beautiful day for sightseeing around downtown Portland. We were on our day off and out for some fun. The weather was perfect for a picnic,so when lunch time came,we set our sights on a small park in town. Since we all had different tastes,we decided to split up,get what each of us wanted, and meet back on the grass in a few minutes.When my friends Robby headed for a hot dog stand, I decided to keep her company. We watched the seller put together the perfect hot dog,just the way Robby wanted it. But when she took out her money to pay him,the man surprised us."It looks a bit smaller on the cool side, "he said, "so never mind paying me. This will be my freebie of the day. "We said our thanks,joined our friends in the park,and dug into our food. But as we talked and ate,I noticed a man sitting alone nearby,looking at us. I could tell that he hadn´ t showered for days. Another homeless person,I thought,like all the others you see in cities. I didn´ t pay much more attention than that.We finished eating and decided to head -off for more sightseeing. But when Robby and I went to the garbage can to throw away my lunch bag, I heard a strong voice, " There isn´ t any food in that bag,is there?"It was the man who had been watching us. I didn´ t know what to say. "No,I ate it already. " "Oh,"was his only answer, with no shame in his voice at all. He was obviously hungry, couldn´ t bear to see anything thrown away, and was used to asking this question.I felt bad for the man,but I didn´t know what I could do. That´ s when Robby said, "I’ll be right back. Please wait for me a minute," and ran off. I watched curiously as she went across to the hot dog stand. Then I realized what she was doing. She bought a hot dog,crossed back to the garbage can,and gave the hungry man the food.When she came back to us, Robby said simply," I was just passing on the kindness that someone gave to me. "第33题Why did the seller offer Robby a free hot dog?A.It was offered for a large order.B.The hot dog didn´t look big enough.C.It was a special favor to a lady customer.D.The seller gave away a free hot dog every day.第34题Which word best describes the homeless man?A.Angry.B.Untidy.C.Sensitive.D.Impolite.第35题Why did Robby go back to the hot dog seller?A.She wanted to thank the hot dog seller.B.The homeless man asked her for a hot dog.C.She wanted to buy a hot dog for the homeless man.D.The hot dog was so delicious that Robby wanted another.第36题What is the theme of this passage?A.The rich should help the poor.B.One good turn deserves another.C.Kindness is the greatest wisdom.D.A kindness shown,a kindness sown.上一题下一题(37~40/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Whatever you do,don´t challenge a chimpanzee named Ayumu to a number memory game.In 2007, Ayumu became famous for his lightning speed at a game that goes like this: A player views a computer screen where the numbers 1 through 9 appear briefly at once and then turn to white squares. The player then taps the squares where the numbers had been,in order from 1 to 9. People can do it. But no human competitor has ever completed the game faster or more accurately than Ayumu the chimp. For almost five years Ayumu remains undefeated.Psychologist Nicholas Humphrey of Darwin College at Cambridge University in England now thinks he knows the secret behind the chimp´ s ability. Humphrey suspects Ayumu´ s brain may have a condition that allows the chimp to see numbers as colors. This would mean that Ayumu may see a color glow after the number disappears. Then,instead of remembering the numbers,he remembers a sequence of colors, each associated with a number.The condition that Humphrey believes Ayumu may have is called synesthesia. Humans with synesthesia may associate numbers and letters with colors. For example,a person may see the number "5"as the color blue. Until now,scientists had assumed only humans could have synesthesia.Humphrey found the inspiration for his idea at a 2011 scientific conference. There, he heard a presentation about Ayumu´ s memory abilities and another talk about synesthesia. He then put the two ideas together.Not everyone is convinced that Humphrey is correct. Primatologist Tetsuro Matsuzawa of the Primate Research Institute at Kyoto University in Japan has spent decades studying the amazing memories of chimpanzees, including Ayumu. He maintains that chimps simply have faster memory recall than people.第37题What is Ayumu famous for?A.His gift in playing computers.B.His talent in calculating numbers.C.His skill in tapping the numbered squares.D.His amazing performance in a memory game.第38题Which of the following is true of Nicholas Humphrey?A.He thinks Ayumu has an amazing memory.B.He believes that Ayumu sees the colors of numbers.C.He was inspired by Primatologist Tetsuro Matsuzawa.D.He delivered a speech on synesthesia at the 2011 conference.第39题Where does Humphrey get the inspiration for his idea?A.From an experiment.B.From a conference.C.From a research on chimpanzees.D.From the color blue.第40题How does Tetsuro Matsuzawa explain Ayumu´ s performance in the game?A.Ayumu uses synesthesia.B.Ayumu is cleverer than most chimps.C.Chimps recall things faster than people.D.Chimps are good at dealing with number.上一题下一题(41~55/共15题)Part IV ClozeDirections:For each blank in the following passage, there are four choices marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D].

fun"可知，那时威尼斯会举办狂欢节，应答的人是羡慕前面的人（去威尼斯旅行的），故选B．【点评】本题考查情景交际．解答此类题目首先应该读懂句意，分析上下文语境和逻辑关系．其次对每个选项中的交际用语的适用情况要掌握，根据语境锁定正确答案．关键平时学习中要对交际用语多积累多总结反复记忆．2．（1分）If you are in trouble，Mike is always willing to a hand．（）A．lend B．shake C．wave D．want【考点】AE：动词的辨析．【分析】如果你有麻烦，迈克总是乐意伸出援助之手．【解答】答案：A 短语搭配，lend sb a hand向某人伸出援助之手，帮助某人；shake hands握手；wave a hand挥手；want a hand需要帮助．句意表达的是帮忙，故选A．【点评】动词短语是一个比较难的语言点，搭配较多，用法灵活．学习时，要注意积累．尤其是相似或相近的用法，要注意区分和掌握．3．（1分）I think watching TV every evening is a waste of time﹣﹣there are meaningful things to do．（）A．less B．more C．the least D．the most【考点】71：副词的比较级与最高级．【分析】我认为每天晚上都看电视是浪费时间﹣﹣有更有意义的事情可做．【解答】答案：B根据句意并结合选项可知，这里指的是比看电视有意义的事情，表示两者比较，因此此处应使用形容词的比较级；A．less：较少地，不如；B．more：更多的；故选B【点评】本题考查了形容词的比较级的用法．做本题时，可根据句意判断出此处表示二者的比较，应使用形容词meaningful的比较级形式more meaningful；less是few/little的比较级，通常表示否定意义；more是many/much的比较级，表示比…多．做类似的题时，需要熟练掌握形容词比较级的意义及用法．4．（1分）﹣Mary's been offered a job in a university，but she doesn't want to take it．﹣？It's a very good chance．（）A．Guess what B．So what C．Who cares D．How why【考点】JI：语言交际．【分析】﹣﹣﹣Mary被给予了一份在大学里的工作，但是她不想接受（这份工作）．﹣﹣﹣为什么呢？这是一个很不错的机会．【解答】答案D．A项"猜猜看怎么了"；B项"那又如何呢"；C项"谁在乎呢"；D项"为什么呢"；根据上下文语境可知，Mary被给予了一个工作而不想做，后面说这是一个好机会．可见，说话者应该想知道原因，所以问‘这是为什么．'，因此D项符合语境，故选D．【点评】本题考查情景交际．解答此类题目首先应该读懂句意，分析上下文语境和逻辑关系．其次对每个选项中的交际用语的适用情况要掌握，根据语境锁定正确答案．关键平时学习中要对交际用语多积累多总结反复记忆．5．（1分）small，the company has about 1，000 buyers in over 30 countries．（）A．As B．If C．Although D．Once【考点】92：从属连词；GD：省略句．【分析】尽管规模不大，但这家公司却拥有（分布在）三十多个国家的大约一千名采购员．【解答】答案：C as因为；if如果；although尽管；once一旦．题干表示的是转折关系，只有although表达这个意思．故选：C．【点评】连词用来连接复合句，类型较多．平时学习时，要注意掌握．6．（1分）We have launched another man﹣made satellite，is announced in today's newspaper．（）A．that B．which C．who D．what【考点】59：关系代词；H2：非限制性定语从句．【分析】句意：我们又发射了一颗人造卫星，这是在今天的报纸上宣布的．【解答】答案选B．句意：我们又发射了一颗人造卫星，这是在今天的报纸上宣布的．因为中间是个逗号，并且前后都是一个句子，这说明需要一个连词；同时这个连词必须担当主语．根据句子意思，此处关系代词which指代整个主句引导非限制性定语从句．符合这个条件的只有B．what引导的名词性从句不能和主句分割开来，that引导的名词性从句不能在句中担当任何成分．其实这是一个定语从句，which指代前面的整句话．故选B．【点评】考查定语从句．一般解法是"一看先行词，二看在句中所担当的成分"．7．（1分）While she was in Paris，she developed a _____for fine art．（）A．way B．relation C．taste D．habit【考点】35：名词的词义辨析．【分析】她在巴黎期间，培养了对艺术的鉴赏力．【解答】答案：C．A方法，道路；B关系；C品尝，鉴赏力；D习惯．while引导的为一时间状语从句，主句中为一简单的主谓宾结构．结合句子的逻辑关系可知应该是培养的一种对艺术的爱好，所以用 a taste for"对…的品味/鉴赏力"．故选C．【点评】注意区分不同名词的含义以及用在句子中是否符合逻辑关系．8．（1分）I had hoped to take a holiday this year but I wasn't able to （）A．get away B．drop in C．check out D．hold on【考点】A9：动词短语．【分析】今年我本来希望能去休假，但是我没能去成．【解答】答案A．B项"顺便拜访"；C项"退房结账"；D项"坚持，继续，别挂断"；A项"逃脱，离开"；根据句子"I had hoped to take a holiday this year"可知，"had hoped"表示过去本来希望做某事但事实上没做，是对过去的一种虚拟，而"but"之后的句子表示过去的客观事实，即表示过去事实上我没能离开（去休假），故选A．【点评】本题考查动词辨析．解答此类题目首先要读懂句意，理解每个选项动词的意思，然后根据上下文语境锁定合适的动词．平时要加强动词词汇量的积累．9．（1分）No one be more generous，he has a heart of gold．（）A．could B．must C．dare D．need【考点】A6：情态动词．【分析】不可能有谁比他更慷慨了，他有一颗金子般的心．【解答】答案：A根据句意可知此处表示推测：不可能有谁比他更慷慨了；A．could是can的过去式，可用于否定句中表示推测，意为"一定不"；B．must表示推测时，意为"一定、准是"通常只用于肯定句；C．dare 敢；D．need 需要；故选：A．【点评】本题考查了could在否定句中表示推测的用法．做类似题时，首先根据句意判断出此处表示推测，然后根据各选项的意义及用法，选出正确答案；因此平时应注意总结并掌握情态动词表推测的用法．10．（1分）In some languages，100 words make up half of all words in daily conversations．（）A．using B．to useC．having used D．used【考点】BB：过去分词．【分析】在一些语言中，100个单词占了日常对话所使用的所有单词的一半．【解答】答案D．题干中make up是谓语动词，________in daily conversations作后置定语，修饰words，words与use之间是被动关系，应该用过去分词used．故选D．【点评】过去分词作定语过去分词作定语与所修饰的词之间有两种关系：从时间上讲，表示动作已经完成；从语态上讲，表示被动的概念．分词作定语有两种形式：它可以放在被修饰的名词之前，称为前置定语；有的放在被修饰的名词之后，称为后置定语．（1）前置定语：单个过去分词及由过去分词构成的复合形容词作定语时，通常置于被修饰词之前．如：the developed countries发达国家；well﹣trained policemen训练有素的警察man﹣made satellites人造卫星；（2）后置定语：当单个过去分词及由过去分词修饰代词时，需置于被修饰词之后；过去分词短语作定语要后置．如：Don't use words，expression_rs or phrases known only to people with specific knowledge．不要运用只有具有特别知识的人才能懂的词汇和表达方式．The bridge built last month needs repairing．上个月建造的那座桥需要修理．11．（1分）It was not until near the end of the letter she mentioned her own plan．（）A．that B．where C．why D．when【考点】GC：强调句．【分析】一直到信的结尾他才提到他自己的计划．【解答】答案A．句意为：一直到信的结尾他才提到他自己的计划．强调句型的基本结构为：It is+被强调部分+that+剩余部分．判断是否为强调句型的方法，把It is 与that去掉组成完整的句子结构，即为强调句型，由此可知本句属于强调句型，故答案为A．【点评】强调句的概念：强调句（The Emphatic Pattern）是一种修辞，是人们为了表达自己的意愿或情感而使用的一种形式．通过各种方式对句子中的某个部分进行强调，从而起到修辞的作用．英语常用的强调结构有：It is （was）+被强调部分（主语、宾语或状语）+that/who…；what…be…句型；比如：It was in London that they met each other for the first time．It is not till yesterday morning that he told me this．直到昨天上午他才告诉我这件事．It was when he fell asleep that I came back home．我是在他睡着了才回到家．that 前面的部分就是强调的内容．12．（1分）At our factory there are a few machines similar to described in this magazine．（）A．them B．these C．those D．ones【考点】55：指示代词．【分析】我们工厂的有些机器和杂志上描述的相似．【解答】答案：C．根据句意可知，所选词是用来代替上文提到的"a few machines"而且其后有后置定语"described in this magazine"修饰，由此可知，此处属于同类中的特指，those是that的复数形式．them用作宾语，指前面所提到过的事或物，these这些，ones泛指，前面的可数名词复数，故选C．【点评】结合句子的意思掌握代词的不同分类，弄清不同代词的用法，在不同的语言环境中灵活运用他们．13．（1分）The water supply has been cut off temporarily because the workers _______ one of the main pipes．（）A．had repaired B．have repairedC．repaired D．are repairing【考点】E9：过去完成时．【分析】句意：水供应已暂时被切断，因为工人们正在维修其中一个主管道．【解答】答案D根据has been cut off判断应该是现在的某种时态．再根据时间状语temporarily可以判断出repair是现在正在发生的动作，应用现在进行时．故选D项．【点评】考查时态．可以根据时间状语或主从句的时态一致原则判断．14．（1分）If he had spent more time practising speaking English before，he _________ able to speak it much better now．（）A．will be B．would beC．has been D．would have been【考点】GJ：虚拟语气．【分析】如果以前他花更多时间练习说英语的话，那么现在他英语就会说得更好．【解答】答案B．本题实际上是考查错综时间的虚拟语气．if条件句的虚拟有三种情况：对过去的虚拟，从句用had done，主句用could/would/might+have done；对现在的虚拟，从句用did，主句用could/would/might+do；对将来的虚拟，从句用did/were to do/should+do，主句用could/would/might+do．由从句中的had spent可知从句与过去事实相反；由主句中的now可知主句与现在事实相反，故用would be．故答案选B．【点评】本题实际上是考查错综时间的虚拟语气．当主句与从句的动作发生在不同的时间，这时主、从句谓语动词的虚拟语气形式因时间不同而不同，这叫做错综条件句．这时可以根据时间状语和if条件句虚拟语气中动词的变化形式加以辨别．15．（1分） I want to tell you is the deep love and respect I have for my parents．（）A．That B．Which C．Whether D．What【考点】H7：wh﹣引导的主语从句．【分析】我想告诉你的是我深爱我的父母并很尊重他们．【解答】答案：D．分析句子结构可知 I want to tell you为一个主语从句，该从句中缺少一个动词tell的宾语，选项中只有what引导名词性从句时充当成分；故选D．I have for my parents为一定语从句，修饰先行词the deep love and respect，关系词为that或者which，因为作动词have 的宾语，故给省略了．故选：D．【点评】我们必须特别关注what所引导的名词性从句，what引导名词性从句时，必须在句中担当主、宾、表等成分，意思是"…的事或东西"，一般也不能用逗号和主句分割开来，插入语除外．二.第二节：完形填空（共1小题：每小题1.5分，满分30分）阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从16～35各题所给出的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项．16．（30分）As I held my

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished sentences. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that suits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.( A )Some people believe that your blood group hides no secrets. It show the “real you”. And the owners of certain blood groups might be particularly good or bad at a certain task. This is the very reason why you could be asked to offer your blood group before being given a job.The new idea was carried out first in Japan and now it has been brought over to other parts of the world. One important business company in Japan is quite special about these needs: For ouroffice members, we must have 30 percent of those with group A and 15 percent with AB, 25 percent with B.”Do you happen to know that if your own blood group is O, you can get things done and sell the goods well? People with blood group A are thinkers, while those with blood group B are highly creative. And if you have problems, ask the ABs to solve them. So if you visited the Japanese company, you would find the O types out selling goods and A types keeping order in the office.41.

He turned round and saw Walter Graham’s car sinking into 8 feet of water of the inground swimming pool a little distance away from his yard. Kohout immediately called to Graham’s wife, Evelyn, to phone 911. Then he ran back to his house to get Terence Reif and Glenn Fajardo to help, who were at work inside the house. “There was no time for second thoughts,” said Reif, a farmer’s son. “ The only thing to do is to get in the pool.”The car doors were locked. Graham, 73, was unconscious, and his mercury was rapidly filling with water. Reif struggled to break the driver’s side window with a hammer but had trouble getting it done underwater.Finally, some of four minutes after the car had fallen into the pool, the glass was broken. By then, Graham was floating at the top of the flooded passenger compartment.The three men pulled Graham out through the broken glass. He wasn’t breathing and his heart stopped beating, so they performed mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. The rescue team arrived in no time. Doctors supplied him with advanced life support on the way to the hospital.“These people were getting to Graham through the glass,”said Dr. Jeff. “All three acted without regard for their own safety.” Added Evelyn Graham, “ They were truly angels, watching over us.”44. Who may Terrence Reif and Glenn Fajardo most probably be?A. Doctor and nurse.B. Policemen.C. Walter’s wife and son.D. Workmen .45. In the third paragraph, mercury referred to ____________________.A. the old man’s carB. another workmanC. one of the man’s carD. a kind of machine46. What does the word Resuscitation refer to in the story?A. A way of helping people who have heart trouble.B. A way of saving people who have got drunk.C. A way of saving people who have stopped breathing.D. A way of helping people who need water.47. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. The Underwater CarB. Angels around Us.C. Rescue Team in TimeD. Safety FirstSection CDirections: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each48．__________________.A world record is every athlete’s dream, but the hard-won records of a few years ago are mostly just today’s qualifying times. Roger Bannister’s famous four-minute mile of 1956 has been beaten by nearly 15 seconds, while almost an hour and twenty minutes has been taken off the women’s marathon since 1953, “Faster, higher, stronger”is the Olympic motto, and today’s competitors continue to push back the boundaries of what the body can achieve. But one wonders if this can continue.49．__________________.The last forty years have seen many important technological advances. For example, since the introduction of strong, flexible fiber glass poles, over a meter has been added to the pole vault record. There have also been important developments in the design of the running shoes. And while a shoe won’t actually make someone run faster, modern shoes do mean many more miles of comfortable, injury-free training.50．__________________.Pushing back the limits now depends more on science, technology and medicine than anything else. Athletic technique, training programs and diets are all being studied to find ways of taking a few more seconds off or adding a few more centimeters to that elusive record. It seems that natural ability and hard work are no longer enough.51．__________________.The search to find more efficient way of moving goes on. Analysis of an athlete’s style is particularly useful for events like jumping and throwing. Studies show that long jumpers need to concentrate not on the speed of approach, as once thought, but on the angle their bodies make with the ground as they take off. However, the rules governing each sport limit advances achieved by new styles. For instance only one-footed take-offs are allowed in the high jump.52．__________________.In the future, it should be possible to develop a more individual approach to training programs.Athletes will keep detailed diaries and collect data to help predict the point when training becomes over training, the cause of many injuries. If athletes feed all their information into a database, it may then be possible to predict patterns and to advise them individually when they should cut down.III. Translation(20%)1. 今天早晨他的自行车坏了。

2013年浙江专升本(英语)真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)
2013年浙江专升本（英语）真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)全部题型 2. Reading Comprehension 3. Cloze 5. Translation 6. WritingReading ComprehensionA quality education is the ultimate liberator. It can free people form poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society. It can also free communities and countries, allowing them to leap forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible. For this reason, the international community has committed itself to getting all the world’s children into primary school by 2015, a commitment known as Education for All. Can Education for All be achieved by 2015? The answer is definitely”yes” , although it is a difficult task. If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum of five years of primary school, instead of just enrolling for classes, which used to be the measuring stick for education, the challenge will become even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates. The number rises to 88 if completion rates are used as the standard. Still, the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems. They also need significant increases in external(外部的)financing and technical support. The 29 countries lagging(落后)farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented(空前的)rates of progress. But this is attainable with creative solutions, including the use of information technologies, flexible and targeted foreign aid, and fewer people living in poverty. A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country’s capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management. Where a country scores well on these standards, foreign assistance can be highly effective.1．It can be inferred from the passage that a quality education has the function of______.A．helping a country free from foreign ruleB．making people become wealthyC．giving people more power and freedomD．speeding up the progress of society正确答案：B解析：推断题。

Reading ComprehensionTask1 After reading the following passage, you should make the correct choice.Some cities have planned their transportation systems for car owners. That is what Los Angeles did. Los Angeles decided to build highways for cars rather than spending money on public transportation.This decision was suitable for Los Angeles. The city grew outward instead of upward. Los Angeles never built many tall apartment buildings. Instead, people live in houses with gardens.In Los Angeles, most people drive cars to work. And every car has to have a parking space. So many buildings where people work also have parking lots.Los Angeles also became a city without a Central Business District (CBD). If a city has a CBD, crowds of people rush into it every day to work. If people drive to work, they need lots of road space.So Los Angeles developed several business districts and built homes and other buildings in between the districts. This required more roads and parking spaces.Some people defend this growth pattern. They say Los Angeles is the city of the future.1. According to the passage, Los Angeles is a city where C .A. there is no public transportation systemB. more money is spent on highways for carsC. more money is spent on public transportation systemsD. public transportation is more developed than in other cities2. "The city grew outward instead of upward" (Line 1, Para. 2) means A .A. the city became more spread out instead of growing tallerB. there were fewer small houses than tall buildingsC. rapid development took place in the city centerD. many tall buildings could be found in the city3. According to the passage, if a city has several business districts, B .A. people won't have to drive to work every dayB. there has to be more roads and parking spacesC. companies would be located in between the districtsD. there would be no need to build parking area spaces within the districts4. According to the growth pattern of Los Angeles, homes were mainly built C .A. in the city centerB. along the main roadsC. around business districtsD. within the business districts5. The passage is mainly about A .A. the construction of parking spaces in Los AngelesB. the new growth patterns of the city of Los AngelesC. the public transportation system in Los AngelesD. the problems of traffic jams in Los AngelesTask2 After reading the following passage, you should make the correct choice.The first step in wise car care and service is to buy a car that is in perfect condition.

Have the salesman try all the lights and signals while you stand outside the car to make sure they work.Start the engine and listen for any noise. The car should run smoothly after it has warned up. All these simple things should be checked before you leave the shop.Next, road-test the car. It should speed up without jerking (颠簸), and the brake should work evenly and quickly.If the car fails to perform on any of these points, do not take it.

Stepping on aburning cigarette shuts off the air and puts out the fire.Many fires are put out with water. Water cools the material that isburning. It helps smother(闷熄) a fire, too. Some of the water is changed into steam when it strikes the hot fire. The steam shuts off air from the fire and helps put it out.Some fires cannot be put out with water. They have to be smothered withsand or with chemicals of some kind, such as those used in some fireextinguishers(灭火器). Suppose a tank full of gasoline is on fire. Gasoline is lighter than water. If you poured water into the tank of gasoline, the water would sink to the bottom of the tank. The gasoline would float on top of thewater and would probably keep on burning. If you keep on putting water on the fire, the gasoline would flow over the edge of the tank. Then the fire would spread.1. What are the major ways of putting out fires as mentioned in thepassage? A.

Passage 3Baths and bathing have long been considered of medical importance to man. In Greece there are the ruins of a water system for baths built over 3,000 years ago. The Romans had warm public baths. In some baths, as many as 3,000 persons could bathe at the same time.Treating disease by taking bathing has been popular for centuries. Modern medical bathing first became popular in Europe and by the late 1700's had also become popular in the United States.For many years frequent(经常的) bathing was believed to be bad for one's health. Ordinary bathing just to keep clean was avoided, and perfume was often used to cover up body smells! By the 1700's doctors began to say that soap and water were good for health. They believed that it was good for people to be clean. Slowly, people began to bathe more frequently. During the Victorian Age of the late 19th century, taking a bath on Saturday night became common.In the United States ordinary bathing was slow to become popular. During the 18th and early 19th centuries, many Americans were known as \for example, a person was only allowed to take a bathe every thirty days! That was a law!Frequency of bathing today is partly a matter of habit. People know that bathing for cleanliness is important to health. Doctors know that dirty bodies increase the chance of diseases. As a result, in the United States, people generally bathe often. Some people bathe once a day at least. They consider a daily bath essential (=necessary) to good health.11.

always in the heart of a town．This street was 32 on both sides with many 33 businesses．Here,shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of merchandise：clothing,furniture,hardware,groceries． 34 ,some shops offered 35 ．These shops included drugstores,restaurants,shoe-repair stores,and barber or hairdressing shops． 36 in the 1950s,a change began to 37 ．Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street 38 too few parking places were 39 shoppers．Because the streets were crowded,merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces 40the city limits．Open space is what their car driving customers needed．And open space is what they got 41 the first shopping centre was built．Shopping centers,or rather malls, 42 as a collection ofsmall new stores 43 crowded city centers． 44 by hundreds

Central Valley doesn’t generally experience the sound and lightning that can go with those rains,it’s still important for parents to be ableto answer the youthful questions about thunder and lightning．The reason these two wonders of nature are so difficult for many adults （成年人）to explain to children is that they are not very well understood by adults themselves．Fox example,did you know that the lightning we see flashing down to the earth from a cloud is actually flashing up to a cloud from the earthOur eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually flashing up to a cloud from the earthOur eyes trick us into thinking we see a downward motion when it’s actually the other way around．But then,if we believed only what we think and we see,we’d still insist that the sun rises in the morning and sets at night．Most lightning flashes take place inside a cloud,and only a relative few can be seen jumping between two clouds or between earth and a cloud．But,with about 2000 thunderstorms taking place above the earth every minute of the day and night,there’s enough activity to produce about 100 lightning strikes on earth every second．Parents can use thunder and lightning to help their children learn more about the world around them．When children understand that the light oflightning flashing reaches their eyes almost at the same moment,but the sound of the thunder takes about 5 seconds to travel just one mile,theycan begin to time the interval（间隔）between the flash and the crash to learn how close they were to the actual spark（闪光）．51．According to the author,in the area of the Central Valley,_____．A．rains usually come without thunder and lightningB．it is usually dry in AprilC．children pay no attention to the two natural wondersD．parents are not interested in thunder and lightning52．We believe that lightning is a downward motion because _____．A．we were taught so by our sense of vision B．we are taken in by our sense of visionC．it is a common natural sight D．it is a truth proved by science53．What is true about lightning according to the passage_____A．Only a small number of lightning flashes occur on earth．B．Lightning travels 5 times faster than thunder．C．Lightning flashes usually jump from one cloud to another．D．There are far more lightning strikes occurring on earth than we can imagine．54．The underlined word“activity”is most closely related to the word（s）_____．A．“cloud”B．“lightning strikes” C．“lightning flashes”D．“thunderstorms”55．It can be concluded from passage that _____．A．we should not believe what we see or hearB．things moving downward are more noticeableC．people often have wrong ideas about ordinary phenomena（现象）D．adults are not as good as children in observing certain natural phenomenaPassage 2Martin, Sandy, Maria, Jane, Michael正从报纸(de)分类广告中寻求自己需要(de)信息,你可以从56-60题中获知他们各自(de)需要.阅读下面五则广告,然后选出符合各人要求(de)广告.56.

He has proved that everyone hasa daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labor through your work, you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic (精力充沛) is when your cycle ofbody temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes before noon. For othersit comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leadsto such familiar sayings as: “Get up, John You’re late for work again” The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kelantan believes. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won’t change your cycle, but you’ll work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. When you get up, sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.66. According to the new findings of Dr. Kelantan, if a person finds getting upearly a problem, most probably __________________.A. he is a lazy personB. he refuses to follow his own energy cycleC. he is not sure when his energy is lowD. he is at his energy peak in the afternoon or evening67. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passageA. Unawareness of energy cycles.B. Familiar saying.C. A change in a family member’s energy cycle.D. Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.68. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, heshould _________.A. change his energy cycleB. overcome his lazinessC. get up earlier than usualD. go to bed earlier69. You are advised to act slowly when you rise in the morning because it will____________.A. help to keep your energy for the day’s workB. help you to control your mood early in the dayC. enable you to concentrate on your routine workD. keep your energy cycle under control all day70. Which of the following statements is NOT trueA. Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.B. Dr. Kelantan explains why people reach their peak at different hours of day.C. Habit helps one adapt to his own energy cycle.D. Children have energy cycles, too.四、词组练习：110=10分71对社会是有价值(de)72.先进工业国73.大学学位74.妻子(de)义务75.据报道76.办公大楼77最繁忙(de)街道78. 电线79.黄头发、黑眼珠(de)80. 两到三次之后五、完成下列句子：210=20分81.

But most of her friends tended to find math very difficult, and because they thought it was a useless subject, they saw no point in working at it. Math was, in fact, the least popular subject in Caroline’s class.During Caroline’s last year at school, the teachers went on strike for two months to protest against the size of their classes (30-35 was typical). Each morning, Caroline gave private math lessons to three of her friends, so that they would have a chance of passing their examination. She’s patient, and good at explaining things to people, and the lesson went well. Caroline and her three friends all passed. They offered to pay her the lessons, but she refused. She felt sympathy for the teachers’ strike, and did not think it would be fair if she took money for doing their job.Task 1 Choose the best choice according to the passage61. What happened during Caroline’s last year at school?A. The teachers went home.B. The teachers were ill.C. The teachers went on strikeD. The students went home.62.

She likes to ride the city’s buses, often singing softly to herself as she rides. If you hear her, listen carefully, for the little old lady is the famous jazz singer Alberta Hunter. After over twenty years away from the stage, the eighty-three-year old singer is a star onceagain, says she, “I’m the happiest woman in this wo rl d.”At night Ms. Hunter is on stage, wearing large round gold earrings, and singing the blues (sad songs) for the people who crowded into the theater.Ms. Hunter, who has loved music all her life, began her life’s work when she was only eleven years old. She ran away from her home in Memphis, Tennessee, because she’d heard that singers in Chicago were making ten dollars a week. Even though she was young and small, she was able to get a job, and people began to recognize her great talent. She traveled all over the world and became famous not only as a singer, but also as a song writer.During all those years, Ms. Hunter was very close to her mother, whom she brought from Memphis to live and travel with her. But when her mother died in 1954, there was a sudden and complete change in Alberta Hunter’s life.A few days after her mother’s death, Ms. Hunter attended school and became a nurse. She g ave up singing forever, she thought.For more than twenty-three years, she worked happily as a nurse at a New York hospital, where no one had any idea of her unusual past. Nor did they have any idea of her age. When she finally retired, they believed she had reached age seventy. “I was eighty-two,” Ms. Hunter said with a smile. She became terribly bored and told some of her old friends. One of them suggested that she should go back to singing. She did and she had been busy even since.71.Which of the following may best describe the characteristic of many older women?A. Singing softly.B. Riding buses around the city.C. Moving along slowly.D. Feet often hurt.72.What does Ms. Hunter like best during her life?A. Singing jazz.B. Going shopping.C. Nursing patients.D. Riding buses.73.Why does Ms. Hunter feel she is the happiest woman in the world?A.Because she has got a good chance to earn money.B.Because she has retired from the nurse position.C.Because not many women can be as capable as she.D.Because she has returned to the stage.74.Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Ms. Hunter became a nurse at the age when many people retire.B. Ms. Hunter’s mother died when she was very young.C. Music is Ms. Hunter’s life long career.D. Ms. Hunter is famous not only as a singer, but also as a nurse.75.From the passage we may infer that_______.A. Ms. Hunter remains single all her lifeB. Ms. Hunter looks younger than she really isC. Ms. Hunter’s mother wanted her to become a nurseD. Ms. Hunter worked as a nurse for more than twenty-three yearsPassage 4Americans have used colors to create many expressions they use every day.We say we are “in the pink”when we are in good health. It is easy to understand how this expression was born. When your face has a nice fresh, pink color, it is a sign your health is good.If you look gray and ashen, you may need a doctor.Red is a hotter color than pink. And Americans use it to express heat. In English, the small hot peppers found in many Mexican foods are called “red hots” for their color and their hot taste. While the color green is natural for trees, it is an unnatural color for humans. When someone does not feel well, someone who is seasick, for example, we say he looks green. When someone is angry because he does not have what someone else has, we say he is “green with envy”.Some people are “green with envy” because someone else has more dollars, or “greenbacks”. Dollars are called greenbacks because that’s the color of the back side of the money.The color black is often used in expressions. People describe a day in which everything goes wrong as a “black day”. A “black sheep” is the member of a family or group who always seems to be in trouble. But not all the “black” expressions have bad meanings. A business “in the black”, for example, is one with profits, because profits are written in black. If someone tells you to put something “in black and white”, they want to write it down.76.“He is in the pink” means _______.A. he is very healthyB. he is in bad healthC. his face is pinkD. his clothes are pink77.“Red hots” means ______.A. Mexican foodsB. red foodsC. hot tasteD. peoples making food hot-tasting78. Dollars are called greenbacks because_______.A.both sides of the money are greenB.the color of one side of the money is greenC.people who have dollars are green with envyD.someone else has more dollars79. Some people are “green with envy” because_______.A.they have more money than othersB.they are greenbacksC.they have less money than othersD.they are angry with the color green80. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. The color red is more useful than the others.B. Of all the colors black is the worst oneC. Colors are used by the Americans to express their ideas daily.D. Blue is not the color that Americans like.Passage 5When we talk about intelligence, we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we need to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do. For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isn't sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he can't make things work out right, he doesn't feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from hismistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeling about life, and knows how he fits into it. If you look at children, you'll see great difference between what we call "bright" children and "not-bright" children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright child really wants to find out about life - he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.81. According to this passage, intelligence is __________.A. the ability to study wellB. the ability to do well in schoolC. the ability to deal with lifeD. the ability to get high scores on some tests82. In a new situation, an intelligent person__________.A. knows more about what might happen to himB. is sure of the result he will getC. concentrates on what to do about the situationD. cares more about himself83. If an intelligent person failed, he would__________.A. try not to feel ashamedB. learn from his experiencesC. try to regret as much as possibleD. make sure what result he would get84. Bright children and not-bright children__________.A. are two different types of childrenB. are different mainly in their degree of clevernessC. have difference only in their way of thinkingD. have different knowledge about the world85. The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about __________.A. how to determine what intelligence isB. how education should be foundC. how to solve practical problemsD. how an unintelligent person should be taughtPassage 6The White House is the home of the President of the United States and his family. It wasn’t called the White House until Teddy Roosevelt named it in 1901.James Hoban designed the White House in 1792. He was awarded the job because had won a contest sponsored（主办）by the government.

When a hungry man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat, when a manager gets a new sports car, a big house and pleasure boats dance into view. The many needs of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears. The first and most basic level of needs involves food. Once this level is satisfied, the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of shelter, appears. By the end of World War II, these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses. By 1957 or 1958 this third level of needs was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared: the "life-enriching" level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction, that is, the feed in comfort, safety, and transportation, this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called "luxury" items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medical and dental care, and recreation. Also included here are fancy goods and the latest styles in clothing. On the fourth level, a lot of money is spent on services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level of needs as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level? A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.91.
