2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析

2014年浙江专升本考试《英语》真题卷参考答案与解析Part I Reading Comprehension (60 marks, 60 minutes)Section A (每小题2分)Format ⅠPassage One1. B【解析】主旨题。

此题解题技巧是:文章以问题开头,往往可从其后紧跟的句子中概括出主旨题的答案。

本文开头的问句有两个,涉及where与who,因此可以排除最大的干扰项C,而更有概括性的选项B为正确答案。

2. B【解析】细节题。

细节题常用的一个出题套路是正确选项不是照抄原文,而是对原文进行同义替换。

本题B选项的leftover food就同义替换了原文第二段中的scraps of food。

3. C【解析】细节题。

此题不难,定位到第三段“She replaced the soft center with spices and nut s”一句,很容易得出正确答案C4. D【解析】词汇语义题。

对词汇量较小的考生来说,代入法是针对这类题目较为实用的解题技巧。

即用四个选项逐项替代原词,看看哪个选项最符合上下文的逻辑。

定位到第三段最后一句,根据常识,用拳头击打炸面圈的中间,很可能中间会被打出一个洞来。

因此,选项D“result(后果)”一词最合题意。

5. B【解析】推断题。

倒数第二段说到,这些“Doughnut Girls(炸面圈女孩)”都在靠近士兵的危险地方工作,这里的“dangerous conditions near the soldiers(靠近士兵危险地方)”玩的是文字游戏,显然指的就是靠近前线战场的地方,因此B为正确选项。

Passage Two6.A【解析】短语语义题。

本文的前两句很容易利用对照关系确定plain是gook look的反义,即长相平凡之意。

而且本文围绕着长相与收入的关系展开,因此,可确定A为正确答案。

7. D【解析】细节题中的数学题。

首先要提醒各位考生,凡是数字题正确答案一般都要经过简单的计算,涉及原文数字的选项则多为陷阱。

For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET.For many people today, reading is no longer relaxation. To keep up with their work, they must read letters, reports, trade publications, interoffice communications, not to mention newspapers and magazines: a never ending flood of words. In 51 a job or advancing in one, the ability to read and comprehend 52 can mean the difference between success and failure. Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are 53 readers. Most of us develop poor reading 54 at an early age, and never get over them. The main deficiency 55 in the actual stuff of language itself— words. Taken individually, words have 56 meaning until they are strung together into phrases, sentences and paragraphs. 57, however, the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He laboriously reads one word at a time, often regressing to 58 words or passages. Regression, the tendency to look back over 59 you havejust read, is a common bad habit in reading. Another habit which 60 down the speed of reading is vocalization( 发声 )—sounding each word either orally or mentally as 61 reads.To overcome these bad habits, some reading clinics use a device called an 62, which moves a bar(or curtain)down the page at a predetermined speed. The bar is set at a slightly faster rate 63 the reader finds comfortable, in order to “stretch ”him. The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, 64 word by word reading, regression and subvocalization practically impossible. At first 65 is sacrificed forspeed. But when you learn to read ideas and concepts, you will not only read faster, 66 your comprehension will improve. Many people have found 67 reading skill drastically improved after some training. 68 Chalice Au, a business manager, for instance, his reading rate was a reasonably good 172 words a minute 69 the training, now it is an excellent 1,378 words a minute.

After all, the most everyday situation -- for example, watching a woman get 32 a train -- may be the 33 for your first bestseller.

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWhen you imagine the desert,you probably think of a very hot place covered with sand. Although this is a good description for many deserts, Earth' s largest desert is actually a very cold place covered with ice: Antarctica.In order for an area to be considered a desert, it must receive very little rainfall. More specifically, it must receive an average of less than ten inches of precipitation--which can be rain, sleet, hail, or snow--on the ground every year. Antarctica, the coldest place on earth, has an average temperature that usually falls below the freezing point. And because cold air holds less moisture than warm air, the air in Antarctica does not hold much moisture at all. This is evident in the low precipitation statistics recorded for Antarctica. For example, the central part of Antarctica receives an average of less than two inches of snow every year. The coastline of Antarctica receives a little bit more--between seven and eight inches a year. Because Antarctica gets so little precipitation every year, it is considered a desert.When precipitation falls in hot deserts, it quickly evaporates back into the atmosphere. The air over Antarctica is too cold to hold water vapor, so there is very little evaporation. Due to this low rate of evaporation, most of the snow that falls to the ground remains there permanently, eventually building up into thick ice sheets. Any snow that does not freeze into ice sheets becomes caught up in the strong winds that constantly blow over Antarctica. These snow-filled winds can make it look as if it is snowing.

Such discoveries are so frequent these days that hardly anybody pays heed to them. However, when the Lascaux cave complex was discovered in 1940,the world was amazed. Painted directly on its walls were hundreds of scenes showing how people lived thousands of years ago. The scenes show people hunting animals, such as bison or wild cats. Other images depict birds and, most noticeably, horses, which appear in more than 300 wall images, by far outnumbering all other animals.Early artists drawing these animals accomplished a monumental and difficult task. They did not limit themselves to the easily accessible walls but carried their painting materials to spaces that required climbing steep walls or crawling into narrow passages in the Lascaux complex. Unfortunately, the paintings have been exposed to the destructive action of water and temperature changes, which easily wear the images away. Because the Lascaux caves have many entrances, air movement has also damaged the images inside.Although they are not out in the open air, where natural light would have destroyed them long ago, many of the images have deteriorated and are barely recognizable. To prevent further damage, the site was closed to tourists in 1963,23 years after it was discovered.44. Based on the passage, what is probably true about the south of France?A. It is home to rare animals.B. It has a large number of caves.C. It is known for horse-racing events.D. It has attracted many famous artists.45.

It was completely dark inside.B. The caves were full of wild animals.C. Painting materials were hard to find.D. Many painting spaces were difficult to reach.47. According to the passage, all of the following have caused damage to the paintings EXCEPTA. temperature changesB. air movementC. waterD. lightPassage FourGold used in jewelry is mixed with harder metals to add strength and durability. The metals added can also be used to change gold' s color, giving it a fashionable rose or white tint, or to lighten or darken the natural yellow tone of pure gold. Mixtures like these, of less costly metals with more valuable ones, are called alloys. Copper and silver are the most common metals mixed with gold to make yellow gold jewelry. White gold is usually made with an alloy of gold andnickel.The measure of gold' s purity is called a karat. The higher the karat rating, the higher the amount of pure gold: 24 karat is pure gold, 15 karat is 75% pure gold, 14 karat is 58.5% pure gold, and 9 karat is 37.5% pure gold. All other things being equal, the higher the percentage of pure gold used in the alloy, the more valuable and expensive the jewelry will be.Gold jewelry pieces are usually stamped with a marking to identify the karat amount. While gold that is 24K is too soft for jewelry, 18K, 14K and 9K gold are all appropriate for jewelry, and they all make pieces that look great and wear beautifully.48. Which of the following statements best captures the main idea of this passage?A. Although gold is very valuable, it is also very expensive.B. Gold jewelry is stamped with its karat weight.C. Gold jewelry is made using alloys.D. Colored gold is more valuable than white gold.49. Based on information in the passage, it can be understood that pure gold isA. not used to make ringsB. stamped with 100KC. an alloy of different metalsD. colorless50.

Ⅱand ⅢonlyD. I , Ⅱ,and Ⅲ51. Which of the following statements best explains the relationship between gold and its karat rating?A. The lower the karat rating,the purer the gold.B. The higher the karat rating,the more expensive the gold.C. The higher the karat rating,the less valuable the mixture.D. The lower the karat rating,the purer the alloy.Passage FiveIt is bad to have food stuck between your teeth for long periods of time. This is because food attracts germs, germs produce acid ,and acid hurts your teeth and gums. Flossing helps to remove the food that gets stuck between your teeth. This explains why flossing helps to keep your mouth healthy, but some doctors say that flossing can be also good for your heart.It may seem strange that something you do for your teeth can have any effect on your heart. Doctors have come up with a few ideas about how flossing works to keep your heart healthy. One idea is that the germs that hurt your teeth can leave the mouth and travel into your blood. Germs that get into the blood can then attack your heart. Another idea is based on the fact that when there are too many germs in your mouth, the body tries to fight against these germs. For some reason, the way the body fights these mouth germs may end up weakening the heart over time. Not every doctor agrees about these ideas. Some doctors think that the link between goodflossing habits and good heart health is only a coincidence. A coincidence is the occurrence of two or more events at one time apparently by mere chance. The incidence of these events is completely random, as they do not admit of any reliable cause and effect relationship between them. For example, every time I wash my car, it rains. This does not mean that when I wash my car, I somehow change the weather. This is only a coincidence.The theory that flossing your teeth helps to keep your heart healthy might not be true. But every doctor agrees that flossing is a great way to keep your teeth healthy. So even if flossing does not help your heart, it is sure to help your teeth. This is enough of a reason for everyone to floss their teeth every day.52. Flossing effectively helps to keep your mouth healthy by preventingA. germs from producing acidB. food from entering your bodyC. germs from entering into your bloodD. acid from contacting your teeth and gums53. In paragraph 2, the author explains how having too many germs in your mouth can “end up weakening the heart. " Using the passage as a guide, it can be understood that doctors areA. reluctant to hypothesizeB. confident in their estimationsC. extremely knowledgeableD. uncertain but speculative54. Using information in paragraph 3 as a guide, which of the following is the best example of a coincidence?A. Jim wakes up with a sore throat. He eats a piece of bacon for breakfast. By noon, he feels much better. Jim decides that the bacon has cured his sore throat.B. Laura remembers to brush her teeth every day, but she only remembers to floss once a week. She writes a note to herself, reminding herself to floss and sticks it to her bathroom mirror.C. Mario is not very good at baseball. He practices playing every day. After a several months of practice, he is a much better baseball player.D. Jai has a bad heart. Her doctor tells her to eat more vegetables and less junk food. After nearlya year of doing this, the doctor tells Jai that her heart is doing much better.55. Which of the following best states the main idea of the final paragraph?A. Because doctors do not agree that flossing wilt help your heart, it is useless to floss.B. It is a fact that flossing can help your heart as well as your teeth.C. Even if flossing is only good for your teeth, you should still do it every day.D. There is no good reason to believe that flossing will help your heart, but it is still a good idea to do it every day.V. Daily Conversation (15 points)Directions: Pick out five appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.

The questions were soooooo tricky, but I managed to crack them all with the help of my amazing brainpower.First off, there was a reading comprehension section that had a passage about the history of Chinese calligraphy. It was super interesting, but the questions were so sneaky! They asked stuff like, "What is the main idea of paragraph two?" and "What does the word ‘script’ mean in t his context?" I had to really pay attention to the details to get them right.Next up was the grammar section, which totally had me scratching my head. They asked about verb tenses, prepositions, and word order. Like, who even knew that "I have been studying English for two years" is present perfect continuous tense?! But I stayed calm and answered each question to the best of my ability.And finally, there was the writing part where I had to write an essay on the topic of "The Importance of Education in Modern Society". I shared my thoughts on how education can open doors to opportunities, help us develop critical thinking skills, and build a better future for ourselves and others. It was a serious topic, but I tried to keep my writing clear and organized.After a few hours of intense brainwork, I finally finished the exam and handed it in.

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Chooseone best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.At first glance,there hardly seems to be any comparison between Ravenna and Rome,but backin the 5th century ,it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Western Roman Empire. In this city,Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics (镶嵌图案). Seven of Ravenna's eight buildings from the 5th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decoratedwith examples of this ancient art. "In the past, many people couldn't read or write," says tour guideand Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. "Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situ-ation to the people. " Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn tomake their own masterpieces.Travel TipsWhen to Go:June--October; weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups.Where to Stay:Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modernHotel Centrale Byron.How to Get Around:Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city.Where to Eat or Drink:Housed in a former movie theater, two-storey Ristorante Cinema Alex-ander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu). For fresh seafood, try Osteria L'Accigua and Da Buco.What to Buy : Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporaryand traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantineforefathers.What to Read Before You Go:Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis-. 2010) ,provides a wide-ranging look at the city's art, architecture, and history.第36题单选 In ancient times, mosaics were used toA.display artistic achievementspete with Roman paintingsC.explain religion and politicsD.teach reading and writing参考答案:C第37题单选 Lots of school children visit historic sites such as Ravenna inA.MayB.JuneC.SeptemberD.October参考答案:A第38题单选 If you want to try fresh seafood,you should go to__________ .A.Emilia RomagnaB.Hotel Centrale ByronC.Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD.Osteria L'Accigua and Da Buco参考答案:D第39题单选 Why is Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?A.Because it was written by a famous writer.B.Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C.Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D.Because it provides useful information about the city's weather.参考答案:BWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags (摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he lovesyou. And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every move-ment of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness ; if histail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight ; and if his tail is tucked (塞) behind his legs, itmeans he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, cats' tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs him-self up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, helashes out(甩动) his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats hadnot become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for theirfood. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were closeto each other, dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance c,o~mmunication, theyused their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language toooften. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs'.第40题单选 What does it mean when a dog's tail is straight?A.It has a lot to say to you.B.It wants to stop fighting.C.It is going to fight.D.It likes to be patted.参考答案:C第41题单选 A cat tries to appear big when it is __________ .A.facing a dangerB.unhappyC.ready to huntD.hungry参考答案:A第42题单选 Which of the following does the author intend to say?A.Dogs and cats are not good friends.B.Dogs are much friendlier than cats.C.Dogs and cats are usually good pets.D.Dogs use tail language more than cats.参考答案:D第43题单选 In the last paragraph, the underlined word "predato.rs" refers to __________ .A.animals that follow and obey other animalsB.animals that kill and eat other animalsC.animals that live in the wildD.animals kept by people参考答案:BLike any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year old, the monthlymagazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan ,47, the asso-ciate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month.Editing One Teen Story--the younger sibling(姐妹篇)of One Story magazine--will offer Ryan achance to reach a whole new audience. "It's really the only magazine for young adult short fiction,"he says from his office in New York. "It's tremendously exciting that there are younger people outthere who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usu-ally only presented when it's forced upon them in schools. "Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its siblingmagazine, it doesn't carry photographs or advertising. It's just exactly what it says:one story per issue.Ryan says young people are "looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identifywith. It's not about having a message or positive spin (说教). It always starts on a character level,and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ' Twilight' characters and the ' HarryPotter' characters,they feel very contemporary. "Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. "I would love to make OneTeen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business. I just really lovethe idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody--would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was woah keeping at this.”第44题单选 Who is Patrick Ryan?A.He is the editor.in.chief of Granta.B.He is the editor—in—chief of One Story.C.He is the editor.in—chief of“Twilight”. 、D.He is the editor—in-chief of One Teen Story.参考答案:D第45题单选 What is One Teen Story?A.It is a story magazine for teenagers.B.It is a London—based literary iournal.C.It is a column of a newspaper.D.It is a magazine of science fiction.参考答案:A第46题单选 According to Ryan。

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are peopl e who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I will continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy,but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy , is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---the healthier---our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61.From the passage, we know that .A.the author complains about her parents’ being too understandingB.the author has been studying marriage for more than 20 yearsC.People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD.Some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62.Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A.Because we are caring the others too much.B.Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C.Because we believe we are always rightD.Because the others have done something wrong63.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A.Understanding is more important to parenting relationships than to other intimate relationships.B.Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C.Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D.Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64.If we are to understand our parents, we should firstly .A.have willingness to do soB.have love for themC.get into connection with themD.care about them65.In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to .A.befriendB.understandC.loveD.care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time---consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment,“this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their“always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you will have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But , still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66.Finding a gift for somebody is a(n) .A.easy jobB.tough taskC.must-be jobD.arranged task67.It is quite for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.ualB.normalC.abnormalD.unusual68.Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that .A.people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB.People would cash out the gift immediatelyC.People are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD.People are less willing to give gifts.69.Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A.Open a gift immediately in front of the giver.B.Wrap the gift carefully.C.Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D.Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70.The author’s attitude towards gift giving is .A.indifferentB.protestingC.objectiveD.supportivePassage ThreeThey already guide blind and disabled people ;now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆).The duties of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as wellas encouraging them to eat , drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks .These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to takeit , or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Seotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyee Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said:“People in the early stages of dementia are stil l able to live a relative normal life , and dogs help to maintain routine .”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship . People light up when theycan see animals .They don’t n eed to communicate verbally but they can still interact . You can have a speechless bond .The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks ,ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people .71.As is mentioned in the passage ,the guide dogs will do the following except for .A.helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB.reminding the owner to take medicinemunicating with the owner in a non-verbal wayD.helping the owner recover from the illness72.Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A.The students who developed the idea.B.The owners of the dogs.C.The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland .D.It is not mentioned in the passage .73.What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A.They would like to stay with other people.B.They can maintain routine .C.They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life .D.They would like to talk in a different way .74.The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will .A.respond to the owners orderB.respond to a sound deviceC.act on the owners instructionsD.act on the trainers order75.Having a conversation with people with dementia will be .A.difficultB.interestingC.confusing D .encouragingPassage FourIt seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore, more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too---but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in their music in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally ---to computer, phone and MP3 players rose to $2 billion in 2006---an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year---yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big questions for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music by mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases---they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24-year-olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as the y heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for the record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally. Piracy--- usually in the form of cheaply copied CD---has long been an issue for the music business but the internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76.What is unusual a bout the Crimea’s business plan ?A.Their business was given away free on the Internet .B.They gave CDs away free in shops .C.They played free concerts.D.They charged more for their CDs.77.The Crimea hope to make money .A.through CD salesB.by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC.by selling merchandise on the InternetD.through sales of merchandise in shops78.The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because .A.people who attend their concerts need themB.they want to make extra moneyC.there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD.people who fail to attend their concerts need them79.What is true about sales of music over the last year?A.Overall,sales are up on last year.B.Overall,sales are down on last year.C.There is no change compared to previous salesD.It is not mentioned in the passage.80.What effect has internet had on music piracy?A.It is made it easier to fight piracyB.It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C.It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D.It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part IV TranslationSection A81.她喜欢看书时听音乐。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B ,C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer onthe ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Scout, 18,answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren^t for themissing leg, I wouldn?t have the opportunities I have today!”Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old,she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg wasespecially damaged,and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14,she got a high-tech leg made for sportsand put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my firsttime,’’ she says. “But my doctor said,‘You have to start somewhere. ’ ”Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said,“I’ve beendoing this for a while. Let me give you some tips. ’’ R einertsen,who lost her leg when she was seven, is the firstdisabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon(铁人三项)in Hawaii. She works with an organization tohelp support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager^s life. S he lost that first race, but gained the confidence thatshe needed to compete. If Sarah could do it,she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also findstime to share her story with school groups.“Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even ifyou arenJt physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind —maybe with family,or homework,orfriends. No matter what it is,you can over-come that obstacle,” she says. “Everything you need is inside your heart.Take small steps. As time goes by,the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream.”16. Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She?s scared of changing her current situation.B.She couldn't have them even if she wanted to.C.She has never thought about it before.D.She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere”(Para. 2)?A.She has to do it sooner or later.B.She has to find the right place to start.C.That will be a memorable first time.D.That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experiences____.A.were the cause of her shynessB.were a nightmare until she reached 14C.didn’t stop her from fulfilling herselfD.didn’t have much influence on her later life19. Which of the following statements is true?A.Sarah shared her story with school students.B.Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C.Scout has been inspired by Sarah’s success.D.Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.20. Through Scout’s story,the author wants to tell us that ____ .A.the disabled are mentally stronger than othersB.inner strength can help one overcome difficultiesC.good things will come no matter whatD.everybody has to challenge himselfPassage TwoImpatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuckin traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past.Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that"digital technology, from cellphones to e-mails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from thistechnology have in turn increased our appetite for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives."Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become animmediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When thatdoesn7t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied. “Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people whosend messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as withletter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider suchformalities(客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging. Many people do not take the timeto proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical andtypographical errors.The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the realm of digital communications. People seem to be losingtheir ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast,driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a trafficlight to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.21. According to the first paragraph,people______ .A. were more patient in the pastB. have been patient for a long timeC. used to be patient while stuck in trafficD. used to be patient while waiting in line22. Nowadays people lose their patience because .______A. their desire for satisfaction has increasedB. they are bored with what they haveC. they have more things to do than beforeD. their life has been changed by technology23. Some believe that e-mail could soon become outdated because_______ .A. it takes a long time to start the computerB. people value formalities between friendsC. people can hardly wait for a responseD. cellphones are more popular nowadays24. The pursuit of instant results causes people to __.A. become more impoliteB. have more errors in their writingsC. use voice messages instead of emailsD. lose many of their abilities in life25. The best title for the passage might be “”A. What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?B. Are We Less Patient Today?C. What Happened to Technology?D. Has Digital Technology Changed Our Lives?Passage ThreeScientists measured the impact that people have on the environment using a term called carbon “footprint. ” Thatfootprint reflects the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted(排放)into the atmosphere as a result of someone’sdaily activities. Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民). Living in a suburb outside a city,however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint.Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zipcode across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. ,lIt is mucheasier to have a low carbon impact if your home is close to where you work, shop and play,” explains Jones. Livingwithin walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars.And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases ofclimate-altering greenhouse gases low.Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped uparound major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs mayoffer better schools for a family?s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where theirowners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances. The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn,an environmentaleconomist at the University of California, who was not involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysisapplied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance. That would give scientists a better feel forhow culture might mix with location to influence our carbon footprints.26. “Footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide released by.A. an industryB. an individualC. a regionD. a country27. What is the new finding concerning the footprints of people living in cities and those living in suburbs?A. The two are not at all comparable.B. The former are higher than the latter.C. The latter are higher than the former.D. The former are similar to the latter.28. What is the key factor mentioned to explain the new "findings?A. Distance travelled by cars.B. Spending habits.C. Size of families.D. Attitude towards energy saving.29. What does Matthew Kahn think of the new findings?A. He is confused by the mixed messages.B. He thinks highly of them.C. He can easily understand them.D. He doubts their validity.30. What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A. To call on people to reduce carbon footprints.B. To offer tips on how to live a low-carbon life.C. To clear up misunderstandings about carbon emission.D. To introduce the research on carbon footprints.Passage FourIt was a chilly November evening in New York City,and my daughter and I were walking up Broadway. Noranoticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, “That manJscold,Daddy. Can we take him home?”I don’t remember my reply,but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted athow much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing. But now she wasnoticing suffering and poverty. She wasn’t even four.A few days later,I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered meals to elderly people. Thevolunteers went to a nearby school on a Sunday morning,picked up a food package,and delivered it to an elderlyperson. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easilysee how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person weMbeen assigned. She invited us right over.The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. Shetook the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showedus some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to saygood-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that’s good for yourself aswell as for others? Indeed, the poverty my daughter and I helped lessen that Sunday afternoon was not the woman?salone 一it was in our lives, too. Now Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and collect clothes for thehomeless. Yet,as I’ve watched her grow over these past four years,I still wonder —which of us has benefited more?31.

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Passage OneAt first glance, there hardly seems to be any comparison between Ravenna and Rome, but back in the 5th century, it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Western Roman Empire. In this city. Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, then and now, for their sweeping mosaics (镶嵌图案) .Seven of Ravenna?s eight buildings from the 5th and 6th centuries are spectacularly decorated with examples of this ancient art.”“In the past, many people couldn?t read or write,”says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli.“Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation the people.”Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces.Travel TipsWhen to Go: June-October; weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with school groups.Where to Stay: Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron.How to Get Around: Take the train from Bologna, and then walk ,bike, or use taxis within the city.Where to Eat or Drink: Housed in a dormer movie theater, two-story Ristorante Cinema Alexander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service (helpful intranslating the menu).For fresh seafood, try Osteria L’ Accigua and Da Buco.What to Buy: Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporary and traditional pieces in local studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantine forefathers.What to Read Before You Go :Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis (2010).provides a wide-ranging look at the city’s art, architecture, and history.36.In ancient times, mosaics were used to ________ .A.display artistic achievementspete with Roman paintingsC.explain religion and politiesD.teach reading and writing37.Lots of schoolchildren visit historic sites such as Ravenna in ______ .A.MayB.June D.OctoberC.September38.If you want to try fresh seafood, you should go to _____ .A.Emilia RomagnaB.Hotel Centrale ByronC.Ristorante Cinema AlexanderD.Osteria L?Accigua and Da Buco39.why is :Ravenna in Late Antiquity recommended in this passage?A.Because it was written by a famous writer.B.Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C.Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D.Because it provides useful information about the city?s weather.Passage TwoWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags (摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he loves you. And ,if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things, Every movement of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness; if his tail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight; and if his tail is tucked (塞)behind his legs ,it means he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, eats? tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs himself up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when his is displeased with something ,he lashes out (甩动)his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats had not become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for their food. When dogs went out hunting with their facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance communication, they used their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language too often.As a result. As a result ,their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs.40.What does it mean when a dog?s tail is straight?A.It has a lot to say to you.B.It wants to stop fighting.C.It is going to fight.D.It likes to be patted.41.A cat tries to appear big when it is _____.A.facing a dangerB.unhappyC.ready to huntD.hungry42.Which of the following does the author intend to say?A.Dogs and cats are not good friends.B.Dogs are much friendlier than cats.C.Dogs and cats are usually good pets.D.Dogs use tail language more than cats.43.In the last paragraph, the underlined word “predators” refers to ____ .A.animals that follow and obey other animalsB.animals that kill and eat animalsC.animals that live in the wildD.animals kept by peoplePassage ThreeLike any teenagers, the face of One Teen Story is changing fast. Just a year old, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people isgetting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan,47,the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013,He left the London-based literary journal last month.Editing One Teen Story-the younger sibling (姐妹篇)of One story magazine-will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience.“It?s really the only magazine for young adult short fiction,” he says from his office in New York.“It?s tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it?s forced upon them in schools.”Designed for readers 14 and up, one Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine, it doesn?t carry photographs or advertising .It?s just exactly what it says: one story per issue.Ryan says young people are “looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with.

One long-term study reported by the American Diabetes Association found that 11% of people withpre-diabetes develop the full-blown disease each year.
