You should make the correct choice and mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.The holiday shopping season got off to a flying start over the Thanksgiving (感恩节) weekend in the U.S. Retailers (零售商) attracted discount-hungry consumers with specials (特价商品) of televisions, DVD players and other gifts. Discounters like Wal-Mart and Target had the greatest success, offering customers early bird specials, while major department stores and clothing chains only met modest sales goals. Online sales were also strong.“It was as expected. It wasn’t a source of great prosperity, but it was a good start,”said Nevill, a man in a US retail consulting firm. He said, “One thing we often heard was that only things marked down (降价) were selling. Consumers want a bargain, especially around the holiday.”Shoppers did seem to like the many markdowns. A lady in the State of Connecticut said, “I’ve never seen so many sales. I feel like a kid in a candy store.”Nevill estimated that discounters had a 4% gain over last year’s Thanksgiving figure, while sales at department stores and mall based clothing chains were up 2% for the weekend. However, the Thanksgiving weekend is not necessarily a good way to judge how retailers will be successful for the season. Over the past few years, the weekend accounted for less than 10% of sales.Online merchants also had a good weekend. Sales were up 61% last Friday, compared to the day after Thanksgiving a year ago.36. Over the Thanksgiving weekend, people bought a lot more than usual because .A. Wal-Mart and Target offered birds as giftsB. shopping was the major weekend activityC. people had time to go shopping onlineD. they were allowed special discounts37. Retailers have the experience that consumers seem to .A. feel eager to buy discounted goodsB. be hungry for special kinds of goodsC. like to buy new DVD players as giftsD. be interested in major department stores38. From the context we know that Wal-Mart and Target are the names of two .A. food storesB. large retailersC. online servicesD. clothing chains39. By saying “I feel like a kid in a candy store”, the lady in Connecticut probably meansthat .A. she has difficulty choosing form such a wide variety of goodsB. she cannot decide whether she should buy some candyC. she is quite interested in buying candyD. she recalls her happy childhood days40. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Online sales were 61% higher than retailers’.B. Online merchants had an average weekend sale.C. Retailers lost much profit because of the discounts they offered.D. Retailers had an increase in sales in the Thanksgiving weekend.Task 2Directions:This task is the same as Task 1.

第一篇More Than a Ride to SchoolThe National Education Association claims.“The school bus is a mirror of the community.”They further add that,unfortunately, what appears on the exterior does not always reflect thereality of a chosen community.They are right--sometimes it reflects more! Just ask LieslDenson. Riding the school bus has been more than a ride to school for Liesl.Bruce Hardy.school bus driver for Althouse BUS Company has been Liesl’s bus driver sincekindergarten.Last year when Liesl’s family moved to Parkesburg,knowing her bus went by hernew residence。

she requested to ride the same busThis year Liesl is a senior and will enjoy her last year riding the bus.She says,”It’s been agreat ride so far! My bus driver is so cool and has always been a good friend and a good listener.Sometimes when you’re a child adults do not think that what you have to say is important.Mr.Hardy always listens to what you have to say and makes you feel important.’’Her friends Ashley Batista and Amanda Wolfe agree.Bruce Hardy has been making Octorara students feel special since 1975. This year he willcelebrate 30 years working for Althouse Bus Company,Larry Althouse,president of the company,acknowledges Bruce Hardy’s outstanding record:“You do not come by employees like Brucethese days. He has never missed a day of work and has a perfect driving record.He wasrecognized in 2000 by the Pennsylvania School Bus Association for driving 350,000 accidentfree miles.Hardy’s reputation is made further evident through the relationships he has made withthe students that ride his bus.”Althouse further adds,‘‘Althouse Bus Company was established 70 years ago and has beenproviding quality transportation ever since.My grandfather started the business with one bus.Althouse Bus Company is delighted to have the opportunity to bring distinctive and safe serviceto our local school and community and looks forward to continuing to provide quality service formany more years to come.’’Three generations of business is not all the company has enjoyed.Thanks to drivers likeBruce Hardy,they have been building relationships through generations,Liesl’s mother Carolalso enjoys fond memories of riding Bruce Hardy’s bus to the Octorara School District.31 The word“mirror#39;’in the first line could be best replaced byE ‘‘vehicle”.F ‘‘device”.G “need”H “reflection”.32 Bruce Hardy has been working with Althouse Bus CompanyA for 30 years.B for 70 years.C since last year.D since 200033 Which of the following statements is NOT true of Bruce Hardy?A He is popular with his passengers.B He has never missed a day of work.C He is an impatient personD He has driven 350.000 accident free miles.34 Althouse Bus Company was founded byA Larry Althouse.B Althouse’s grandfatherC Liesl’s motherD Ashley Batista.35 Althouse Bus Company pays much attention toA employing young driversB running quality schools.C providing free driving lessonsD building sound relationships.第二篇A Phone That Knows You’re BusyIt’s a modern problem:you’re too busy to be disturbed by incessant(连续不断的)phonecalls so yo u turn your cellphone off .But if you don’t remember to turn it back on when you’reless busy.you could miss some important calls if only the phone knew when it was wise tointerrupt you,you wouldn’t have to turn it off at all. Instead,it could let calls through when youare not too busyA bunch of behavior sensors(传感器)and a clever piece of software could do just that,byanalyzing your behavior to determine if it’s a good time to interrupt you.If built into a phone,thesystem may decide you’re too busy and ask the caller to leave a message or ring back later.James Fogarty and Scott Hudson at Camegie Mellon University in Pennsylvania based theirsystem oil tiny microphones,cameras and touch sensors that reveal body language and activity.First they had to study different behaviors to find out which ones stongly predict whether yourmind is interruptedThe potential“busyness”signals they focused on included whether the office doors were leftopen or closed,the time of day,if other people were with the person in question,how close theywere to each other, and whether or not the computer was in use.The sensors monitored these and many other factors while four subjects were at work . Atrandom intervals,the subjects rated how interruptible they were on a scale ranging from“highlyinterruptible’’to“highly not—interruptible” . Their ratings were then correlated with the variousbehaviors . “It is a shotgun(随意的)approach:we used all the indicators we could think of andthen let statistics find out which were important,” says HudsonThe model showed that using the keyboard,and talking on a landline or to someone else inthe office correlated most strongly with how interruptible the subjects judged themselves to be.Interestingly,the computer was actually better than people at predicting when someone wastoo busy to be interrupted . The computer got it right 82 per cent of the time,humans 77 per cent.Fogarty speculates that this might be because people doing the interrupting are inevitably biasedtowards delivering their message,whereas computers don’t care.The first application for Hudson and Fogarty’s system is likely to be in an instant messaging system,followed by office phones and cellphones.“There is no technological roadblock(障碍)to it being deployed in a couple of years,” says Hudson36 A big problem facing people today is thatA they must tolerate phone disturbances or miss important calls.B they must turn off their phones to keep their homes quiet.C they have to switch from a desktop phone to a cellphone.D they are too busy to make phone calls.37 The behavior sensor and software system built in a phoneA could help store messages.B could send messages instantlyC could tell when it is wise to interrupt you.D could identify important phone calls.38 Scientists at Carnegie Menon University tried to find outA why office doors were often 1eft open.B when it was a good time to turn off the computer.C what questions office workers were bothered with.D which behaviors could tell whether a person was busy39 During the experiment,the subjects were askedA to control the sensors and the camera.B to rate the degrees to which they could be interrupted.C to compare their behaviors with others’.D to analyze all the indicators of interruption.40 The computer performed better than people in the study becauseA the computer worked harder.B the computer was not busyC people tended to be biased.D people were not good at statistics.。

2005年1月公共英语三级考试A卷真题及答案(2)

2005年1月公共英语三级考试A卷真题及答案(2)

Part III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Directions: This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed. Task 1 The eight airlines of the One-world alliance ( 联盟 ) have joined forces to give world travellers a simple way to plan and book a round-the-world journey. It’s called the One-world Explorer program. One-world Explorer is the perfect solution for a once-in-a-lifetime holiday or an extended business trip. It’s a great way for you to explore the four comers of the earth in the safe hands of the eight One-world airlines. You can have hundreds of destinations to choose from, because the One-world network covers the globe. And, as you travel around the world, you’ll have the support of 260,000 people from all our airlines, who are devoted to the success of your journey, helping you make smooth transfers and offering support all along the way. The One-world goal is to make global travel easier and more rewarding for everyone of our travellers. We try our best to make you feel at home, no matter how far from home your journey may take you. We can offer travelers benefits on a scale beyond the reach of our individual-net-works. You’ll find more people and more information to guide you at every stage of your trip, making transfers smoother and global travel less of a challenge. 36. One-world in the passage refers to A) a travel agency B) a union of airlines C) a series of tourist attractions D) the title of a flight program 37. The One-world Explorer program is said to be most suitable for those who A) have been to the four corners of the earth B) travel around the world on business C) want to explore the eight airlines D) need support all along the way 38. The advantage of the alliance lies in A) its detailed travel information B) its unique booking system C) its longest business flights D) its global service network Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 to 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 39. We can learn from the last paragraph that One-world A) offers the lowest prices to its passengers B) keeps passengers better informed of its operations C) offers better services than any of its member airlines alone D) is intended to make round-the-world trips more challenging 40. The purpose of the advertisement is to A) promote a special flight program B) recommend long distance flights C) introduce different flights D) describe an airlines group Task 2 Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45. The human body has developed its millions of nerves to be highly aware of what goes on both inside and outside of it. This helps us adjust to the outside world. Without our nerves and our brain, which is a system of nerves, we couldn’t know whats happening. But we pay for our sensitivity. We can feel pain when the slightest thing is wrong with any part of our body. The history of torture ( 折磨 ) is based on the human body being open to pain. But there is a way to handle pain. Look at the Indian fakir ( 苦⾏僧 ) who sits on a bed of nails. Fakirs can put a needle fight through an arm, and feel no pain. This ability that some humans have developed to handle pain should give us ideas about how the mind can deal with pain. The big thing in withstanding pain is our attitude toward it. If the dentist says, "This will hurt a little," it helps us to accept the pain. By staying relaxed, and by treating the pain as an interesting sensation ( 感觉 ), we can handle the pain without falling apart. After all, although pain is an unpleasant sensation, it is still a sensation, and sensations are the stuff of life. 41. The human body has developed a system of nerves that enables us to A) stay relaxed B) avoid pain C) stand torture D) feel pain 42. What does the writer mean by saying "we pay for our sensitivity" in the first paragraph? A) We have to take care of our sense of pain. B) We suffer from our sense of feeling. C) We should try hard to resist pain. D) We are hurt when we feel pain. 43. When the author mentions the Indian fakir, he shows that A) fakirs possess magic power B) Indians are not afraid of pain C) people can learn to cope with pain D) some people are born without a sense of pain 44. What is essential for people to stand pain according to the writer? A) Their relaxation. B) Their interest. C) Their nerves. D) Their attitude. 45. The author believes that A) feeling pain is part of our life B) pain should be avoided at all costs C) feeling pain can be an interesting thing D) magic power is essential for reducing pain。

The fossilised bones found in 1967 were originally thought to be 130,000 years old. But a re-dating of rock layers near those which yielded the fossils showed they are actually about 195,000 years old—from the time modern humans emerged. The skulls, known as Omo I and II, push back the known presence of Homo sapiens in Africa by 40,000 years. The previous oldest Homo sapiens skulls, dated to between 154,000 and 160,000 years old, were found near a village called Herto in the afar region of eastern Ethiopia. Omo I and II were unearthed by famous palaeontologist Richard Leakey along the Omo River in southern Ethiopia, near the town of Kibish. Omo I's more modern features led to disagreement among experts over whether they were the same age. The rocks in which they were found show they are, said Australian archaeologist Prof Ian McDougall, who made the discovery. He told scientific journal “Nature”: “Omo I and Omo II are relatively securely dated to 195,000 years old, making them the oldest anatomically modern human fossils yet recovered.”Questions:56. By which means could the scientists tell the age of fossils they havefound?A. The bones of the fossils.B. The place where they were found.C. The history of humans.D. Identifying the rock layers of the fossils.57. How many years older has our species become by the new discovery?A. 130,000.B. 40,000.C. 195,000.D. Between 154,000 and 160,000.58. Where were the Omo I and II found?A. Near Herto.B. Along the Omo River.C. Near Kibish.D. In Australia.59. What does the word “ homo sapiens” mean in this passage?A. Human being.B. A sample of fossils.C. A river.D. A country.60. Which of the following statements are NOT true according to the passage?A. The discovery of an old crocodile skeleton in Brazil makes people believe that South America and Madagascar were joined 70 million years ago.B. Prof Ian McDougall thought Omo I and II were the oldest human fossils discovered.C. Prof Ian McDougall discovered that Omo I and II were not the same age.D. Omo I and II were discovered in southern Ethiopia.Section B Short Answer Questions (20 points)Directions: In this section, there are 2 passages followed by 10 questions or unfinished statements. Read the passages carefully, then answer the questions in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words). Remember to write the answers on the Answer Sheet.Questions 61 to 63 are based on the following passage.King JamesBefore the last shot of Michael Jordan's final game with the Chicago Bulls, he left behind a moment that will hang in the minds of sports fans the way he did in the air. His quick crossover dribble, with the help of a tiny shove, sent Utah Jazz defender Byron Russell to the floor. Wide open, Jordan nailed the game-winning jump shot, and he and the Bulls clinched their sixth—and Jordan's last—NBA title.At the Rose Garden Arena in Portland, Ore., last Wednesday, Cleveland Cavaliers star LeBron James, 20, became the youngest player to reach one of the toughest performance milestones in basketball, the “triple double” (double digits in points, rebounds and assists in a single game—he did it again three nights later). During one play, his quick crossover dribble, sans shove, sent a Portland defender veering to the sideline. Wide open, James shot a three pointer. Swish. Nothing but Mike.Ever since Jordan's first retirement a dozen years ago, the NBA has searched from Chi-town to China for a star as dominant and marketable as His Airness.The race to replace Jordan may end without a winner, but LeBron James, in just his second year out of St. Vincent—St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio, is already far ahead of the pretenders. His game is spectacular. James combines Jordan's ease at filling up the box score (and the stands) with a ruthless instinct to win, a trait that Hill, a gentleman, and Carter, a diffident performer, surely lack. And like Jordan, James knows he can't do it alone. In fact, he is a complete team player who loves to pass the ball and make his teammates better: Iverson and Bryant can't claim much there.The biggest shock of all: the most hyped teen athlete of this century, whosingle-handedly put high school basketball on national television, has actually exceeded the ungodly expectations set before him. “The King James era is here”, says Milwaukee Bucks head coach Terry Porter, who played against Jordan for much of his 17-year pro career. “You could argue that LeBron is kind of carrying the league right now.”Questions:61. What does the sentence “Nothing but Mike.” indicate?62. Hill, a gentleman, and Carter, a diffident performer lack _________, compared with Jordan.63. Can you guess what Terry Porter was before he was a coach?Questions 64 to 70 are based on the following passage.Good news: Olympic chiefs visit London.

Remember to write the answer on the Answer Sheet.Farmers, as we all know, have been having a hard time of it in Britain, and have been turning to new ways of earning income from their land. This involves not onlyp 81 new kinds of crops, but some strange ways of making money, the mostu 82 of which has got to be sheep racing. Yes, you heard me correctly! A farmer in the West of England now holds sheep races on a regular basis, and d 83 the past year over 100,000 people have turned up to w 84 the proceedings. “I was passing the farm on my way to the sea for a holiday,”one punter told me, “and I thought I'd have a look. I didn't believe it was serious, to tell you the truth.” A85 to a regular visitor, betting on sheep is more interesting than betting on horses. “At proper horse races everyone has already studied the form of the horses in advance, and there are clear f 86 . But nobody has heard anything about these sheep! Most people find it d 87 to tell one from another in any case. ”I stayed to watch the races, and I must admit that I found it quite exciting. In a typical race, half a dozen sheep race downhill o 88 a course of about half a mile. Food is waiting for them at the other end of the track, I ought to add! The sheep run s 89 fast, although presumably they haven't eaten for a while just to give them some m 90 . At any rate, the crowd around me were obviously enjoying their day out at the races, judging by their happy faces and the sense of excitement.Part VII Translation (15 minutes, 20 points)Section A English-Chinese Translation (10 points)Directions: Translate the underlined sentences of the following passage into Chinese.

(91) Under its beefburger guise, it was the first of the new range of “convenience” foods which were about to make the world a better place and begin the liberation of women from the drudgery of home-cooking and housework. The older generation did not approve, which made it all the better. In the Sixties the hamburger was a symbol of the techno age —perfectly circular and streamlined. It was as uniform and relentlessly predictable as only the latest technology could make it.(92) True, there were those who rebelled against it, but to most the hamburger wasa reflection of the national love affair with Americana(美国文化). It was a phenomenon which was made fresh in Seventies London with the trendy burgers of the Great American Disaster and the Hard Rock Café, and in many other cities round the world.In the Eighties another subtle shift occurred. People became aware that America was。
