But one day the doctor told him even thestumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon haveto use a wheelchair.Hank felt himself get cold all over.

Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A., B., C., and D.. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Philanthropy is a way that people and organizations show concern for others or work to improve the world. Approximately 72 percent of Americans donate to charity (慈善机构), and 51 percent do volunteer work. About 2 millions not-for-profit organizations and charities in the United States today receive this help.There are three types of philanthropists: individuals, foundations, and private corporations. Individuals give money or volunteer their time to support causes that are important to them. Foundations are organizations started by very wealthy individuals. Their “business” is not to make a profit but to give money aw ay to not-for-profits. Private corporations may also use a portion of their business profits to make donations, or they may give away their products or services free of charge. However, foundations and corporations are responsible for only 20 percent of charitable donations; 80 percent comes from individuals.What makes people and institutions give away their time and money? One reason is altruism, the unselfish desire to help other people and make the world a better place. Other reasons involve personal interest. Under US tax law, an individual or business does not have to pay income tax on money that is donated to charity. For extremely wealthy individuals and corporations, this can mean millions of dollars they do not have to pay in taxes to the government. In addition to tax benefits, donors often receive favorable publicity for making donations, and they have an opportunity to influence the world around them.31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A. Philanthropy has become an accepted American custom.B. Philanthropy has made the US a great influence in the world.C. More and more organizations rely on philanthropy nowadays.D. Religion plays an important role in the philanthropy in the US.32. Which of the following is NOT characteristic of philanthropists?A. To donate money.B. To do volunteer work.C. To pay income tax.D. To provide free services.33. What is the main source of donations in the United States?A. Foundations.B. Individuals.C. The government.D. Private corporations.34. How are foundations different from private corporations in the aspect of philanthropy?A. They don’t make a profit.B. They receive more publicity.C. They are set up by very rich individuals.D. They don’t donate money to individuals.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A. Individuals tend to donate money to become famous.B. Foundations gain more power because of philanthropy.C. Some people donate money for practical purposes.D. The US tax law discourages people from donating money.Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:A lot of people think that if they put off the decision of whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships, the problems they are having will magically somehow heal themselves or disappear. T hey won’t.If you don’t invest some quality time now in taking a true, honest and truthful look at the state of your relationship, you could stay stuck in this place of indecision for a verylong time. Many people waste so much precious time when they could be experiencing an incredible relationship filled with love, passion and joy, either in their current relationship or one that is more of what they want. We encourage you to take an honest look at your situation and feel how much pain you’ve been feeling about this relationship. If having a great relationship is important to you, you need to decide that you’re not willing to live without the love, passion, intimacy, and tenderness. You have to take the first step to create the kind of relationship and love you want in your life.We’re not suggesting that you should leave your current relationship or marriage and head out looking for the new love of your life. That’s your decision and one that should only be made after some careful insight and thinking. What we are telling you is that life is too short to go through it without having the love you want and the love that’s possible for all of us. If you are in a relationship that is causing you to wonder whether you should stay in it or leave—i t’s important that you take some time now to make it clear so that you’ll be able to ask yourself openly and honestly whether you’ll be able to heal the challenges.36. To make a decision about whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships quicker, people should ________.A. leave the problems until they heal themselves or disappearB. head out looking for the new love of his /her lifeC. seek expert’s advice and not make a quick decisionD. have a clear understanding of the state of their relationships37. What does the word “incredible” (Para. 2) probably mean in the passage?A. Marvelous.B. Impossible.C. Unusual.D. Unnecessary.38. According to the passage, if one person is not willing to live without love, passion, tenderness and so on, he must ________.A. leave the current relationshipB. take an honest look at his situationC. spend time experiencing an incredible relationshipD. take the first step to create that kind of relationship39. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. If one starts to wonder about the current relationship, it is time to end it.B. Making the decision about one’s relationship needs careful insight.C. A relationship that brings you pain is not necessarily a bad one.D. Life is too short for people to find true love.40. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A. persuade people to find a better relationshipB. ask people to invest quality time in their relationshipsC. give people some advice on how to stay in or leave their relationshipsD. advise people how to have a relationship with love, passion and so onSection BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Be sure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).German careers or jobs fall into several categories. First, there are positions that require strong ability in German with a company in Germany, Austria or Switzerland. This category may also include a job requiring good German and/or bilingual (双语的) skillswithin a company doing business in the US, Canada, Mexico or elsewhere. Secondly, there are jobs that can be done in English in German Europe. Then there are German companies abroad.Most minor and many major positions are filled by recruiting German, Austrian or Swiss nationals. If you are already in German Europe, you may have a better chance of finding a job. In any case, it is best if your company can handle all the formalities involved when a foreign national takes a job in Germany. There are also relocation services that can help with this if you don’t have any ideas yourself.The German unemployment rate has remained at a fairly high level over the last decade. It is almost impossible for a non-German to get a job in Germany unless she/he can prove that it can’t be done by a German national. In certain fields, such as computer science or information systems, “green card” foreign workers have been imported, but this practice is still uncommon. The reality of searching for and finding a suitable position in German Europe or with a German firm means two main things: knowledge and planning. Too many times, job seekers have unrealistic expectations. Often they overestimate their language skills and underestimate the level of competition. Another danger is ignoring culture shock. That’s why we also offer links to culture-related sites.For getting most German jobs, it is your ability in a field—computers, teaching, advertising, etc.—rather than your German skills that will be the biggest factor in a successful search. But all other things being equal between you and another candidate, it is the person with the best language skills who usually gets the job.41. What is the requirement of the job within a company doing business in the US,Canada, Mexico or elsewhere included in the first category?42. What might the company do for the benefit of a foreign employee?43. What seems to be “hot” fields if you are to find a job in German?44. What is the reason for the author to offer links to culture-related sites?45. What is more important to get most German jobs according to the passage?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, mark each)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A., B., C. and D.. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.46.

German battleship Bismarck, themost powerful warship then in the war, was moving out into the Atlantic Ocean. It task: to destroy the ships carrying supplies from the United States to England.The British had feared such a task. No warship they had could match the Bismarck in Speed or in firepower. The Bismarck had eight 15-inch guns and 81 smaller guns.It could move at 30 nautical miles an hour. It was believed to be unsinkable.However, the British had to sink it. They sent out a task force headed by their best battleship Hood to hunt down the Bismarck. On May 24, the Hook found the Bismarck.It was a meeting that the German commander Luetjens did not want to see. His orders were to destroy the British ships that were carrying supplies, but to stay away from a fight with British warships.The battle didn' t last long. The Bismarck' s first torpedo hit the Hood, which went down taking all but three of its 1,419 men with it.But in the fight, the Bismarck was slightly damaged. The commander decided to run for repairs to France, which had at that time been taken by the Germans. The British force followed it. However, because of the Bismarck speed and the heavy fog, they lost sight of it.For two days, every British ship in the Atlantic tried to find the Bismarck, but with no success. Finally, it was sighted by a plane from Ireland. Trying to slow the Bismarck down so that their ships could catch up with her, the British fired at it from the air. The Bismarck was hit.On the morning of May 27, the last battle was fought. Four British ships fired on the Bismarck, and it was finally sunk.6.The Bismarck sailed into the Atlantic Ocean ______ .A.to gain control of FranceB.to sink the HoodC.to cut off American supplied to BritainD.to stop British warships reaching Germany 本题答案：C试题解析：第一段最后一句话7.Many people believethat the Bismarck coulnot be defeatebecause it ______ .A.was fast anpowerfulB.hamore men on boardC.habigger guns than other shipsD.was under Luetjens' command 本题答案：A试题解析：从第二段可以得出正确选项8.One can learn from this passage that on 24 May .A.the British won the battle against the BismarckB.the Bismarck won the battle against the BritishC.the British gunfire damagethe Bismarck seriouslyD.the Bismarck succeedein keeping from the British 本题答案：D9.Luetjens trieto sail to France in order to.A.have the ship repairedB.join the other GermansC.get help from the FrenchD.get away from the British本题答案：A试题解析：第六段第二句话10.Which of the following is the immediate cause of the sinking of the Bismarck?A.The British air strikes.B.The damage done by the Hood.C.Gunfire from the British warships.D.Luetjens' decision to run for France.本题答案：C试题解析：最后一段第二句话Why do men die earlier than woman? The latest research makes it known that the reason could be that men' s hearts go into rapid decline when reach middle age.The largest study of the effects of aging on the heart has found that women, s longevity may be linked to the fact that their hearts do not lose their pumping power with age.〃We have found that the power of the male heart falls by 20-25 percent between 18 and 70 years of age, 〃 said the head of the study, David Goldspink of Livepool John Moores University in the UK."Within the heart there are millions of cells that enable it to beat. Between the age of 20 and 70, one-third of those cells die and are not replaced in men, 〃said Goldspink. "This is part of the ageing process. 〃What surprises scientists is that the female heart sees very little loss of these cells. A healthy 70-year-old woman? s heart could perform almost as well as a 20-year-old one' s."This gender difference might just explain why women live longer than men," said Goldspink.They studied more than 250 healthy men and women between the ages of 18 to 80, focusing on healthy persons to remove the confusing influence of disease. The team has yet to find why aging takes a greater loss on the male heart, said Goldspink.The good news is that men can improve the health of their heart with regular exercise. Goldspink stressed that women also need regular exercise to prevent their leg muscles becoming smaller and weaker as they age.11.The underlined word "longevity" in the second paragraph probably refers toA.healthB.long lifeC.ageingD.effect本题答案：B试题解析：longevity长寿，长命12.The text mainly talks about .A.men' s heart cellsB.women, s ageing processC.the gender differenceD.hearts and long life本题答案：D试题解析：本题考了本文的主要内容13.According to the text, the UK scientists have known that .A.women have more cells than men when they are bornB.women can replace the cells that enable the heart to beatC.the female heart loses few of the cells with ageD.women never lose their pumping power with age 本题答案：C试题解析：第五段第一句话14.If you want to live longer, you should.A.enable your heart to beat much fasterB.find out the reason for agingC.exercise regularly to keep your heart healthyD.prevent your cells from being lost 本题答案：C试题解析：最后一段第一句话15.We can know from the passage that .A.the reason why ageing takes a greater loss on the male heart has been found outB.scientists are on the way to finding out why the male heart loses more of the cellsC.the team has done something to prevent the male from suffering the greater lossD.women over 70 could lose more heart cells than those at the age of 20 本题答案：A三、词汇与语法16.I don' t know to deal with such matter.A.whatB.howC.whichD./本题答案：B17.During the future examinations you should avoid such mistakes.A.makeB.to makeC.makingD.made 本题答案：C试题解析：avoid doing something避免做某事18.I I were a bird.A.hopeB.wishC.expectD.imagine 本题答案：B试题解析：wish后面的宾语从句用虚拟语气19.You should be ashamed what you have done.A.toB.ofC.byD.at 本题答案：B试题解析：be ashamed of由于…而感到羞耻20.Don' t laugh people when they are ________ trouble.A.in…，at…B.at…，at…C.at…，in…D.on. .., in… 本题答案：四、完型填空Scientists have studied consumer behavior recently and found 21 the look of the package has a great effect 22 the "quality" of the product and on how well it 23 because "Consumers generally cannot24 between a product and its package. Many products are packages and many packages are products, 〃 as Louis Cheskin, the first social scientist studying consumers，feeling for packaging, noticed.Colors are one of the best tools in packaging. Studies of eye movement have shown that colors draw human 25 quickly. Take V8 for example.

Reading Comprehension (2 points each, 40 points)Directions:In this part, there are four passages followed by several questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE that you think is the correct answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.Passage 1Very few people were coming to eat at the White Rose Restaurant, and its ownerdid not know what to do. The price was reasonable and the food was of good quality, but nobody seemed to want to eat there.Then he did something that changed all that, and in a few weeks his restaurant is always full of men with their lady friends. Whenever a gentleman came in with a lady, a smiling waiter gave each of them a menu(菜单), the menu looked exactly the same on the outside, but there was an important difference inside. The menu that the waiter gave to the man supplied the correct price for each dish and each bottle of wine, while the menu that he gave to the lady supplied a much higher price! So when the man calmly ordered dish after dish and wine after wine, the lady thought he was much more generous(慷慨) than he really was.11. Why didn’t people come to the White Rose Restaurant to eat at first?A. Because the price was high.B. Because the food was too cheap.C. Because the food was not good.D. The passage didn’t mention.12. According to the passage we can conclude that the people who eat at thisrestaurant are mostly ______.A. poor old peopleB. rich young peopleC. men with their girl friendsD. parents with their children13. The difference between the two kinds of menu lie in ______.A. the colorB. the shapeC. the priceD. the food14. According to the passage we can infer that when men with their girl friends eat atthis restaurant, the food was paid _____.A. always by the ladies onlyB. always by the men onlyC. sometimes by the ladiesD. either by the men or by the ladies15. According to the passage we can know that, generally speaking, ______.A. men are more generous than womenB. women are more generous than menC. men like their lady friends to be generous.D. women like their men friends to be generousPassage 2Parents have to do much less for their children today than they used to do，and home has become much less of a workshop. Clothes can be bought ready made; washing can go to the laundry; food can be bought，cooked，canned or preserved; bread is baked and delivered by the baker; milk arrives on the doorstep; meat can be had at the restaurant，the worker’s canteen，and the school dining-room.It is unusual now for father to pursue his trade or other employment at home，and his children rarely，if ever，see him at his place of work. Boys are therefore seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation，and in many towns they have a fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls. The young wage-earner often earns good money，and soon acquires a feeling of economic independence. In textile areas it has long been customary for mothers to go out to work，but this practice has become so widespread that the working mother is now a not-unusual factor in a child’s home life，the number of married women in employment having more than doubled in the last twenty-five years. With mother earning and his older children drawing substantial wages，father is seldom the dominant figure that he still was at the beginning of the century. When mother works, economic advantages accrue，but children lose something of great value if mother’s employment prevents her from being home to greet them when they return from school.16. The writer mentions home as workshop because______.A. fathers often pursue employment at homeB. parents had to make food and necessity themselves for their daily-lifeC. many families produce goods at home for saleD. both fathers and mothers in most families are workers17. The writer says that home has become much less of a workshop. He means______.A. in the past, home was more like a workshopB. home is much more of a workshop nowC. home-workshops are becoming fewer and fewerD. home was less like a workshop in the past18.The word “accrue”in the sentence“When mother...accrue，”is closest in meaning to ______.A. changeB. dwindleC. doubleD. increase19. The chief reason that boys are seldom trained to follow their father’s occupation is ______.A. that children nowadays rarely see their fathers at their place of workB. that fathers do not like to pursue employment at home any moreC. that there is a wide choice of employment for childrenD. that children also like to have jobs outside20. What makes father no longer the only dominant person in a family?A. With their earning，mother and children do not need to depend on father for their life.B. There are many choice of employment for mothers and children.C. Father does much less for his children today than he used to.D. The number of married women in employment has increased greatly now.Passage 3If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago，we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day，we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country，but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war．Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to Write．For example，we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4，000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them．But we know almost nothing about the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa because they had not learned to write．Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write，they may know something of the past．They have heard about it from older people，and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings，and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations, for most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past．This we may call ‘remembered history’．Some of it has now been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is，because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing．But where there are no written records，such spoken stories are often very helpful．21. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage?A. “Remembered history”，compared with written history，is less reliable.B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learning of the human history．C. A written account of our daily activities helps US to be able to answer many questions．D. Where there are no written records．there is no history．22．We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _____.A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write23．“Remembered history”refers to _____．A. his tory based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important eventsD. both B and C24．“Remembered history”is regarded as valuable only when _____.A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be timeD. people are interested in it25 .The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our past than wedo now if the ancient people had _____A. kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsD. made more songs and dancesPassage 4Most people usually traveled by ship and train which are driven by steam engine. It played an important part in many kinds of vehicles several scores of years ago. Who invented steam engine and what units could be used to measure the power of engine？The word “horse-power” was first used two hundred years ago. James Watt from a worker’s family made the world first widely used steam engine. At first, he couldn’t tell people how powerful it was, because there were no units at that time. Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute. He named that unit one horse-power. In this way he could measure the work of his steam engine.He discovered that a horse could lift a 3300-pound weight 10 feet into the air in one minute. His engine could lift a 3300-pound weight 100 feet in one minute. Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a tenhorse-power engine.26. The main idea of the passage is ___.A. James Watt invented the steam engineB. James Watt first used horse-power as a unit of measureC. how much power does a horse haveD. why Watt’s engine is called a ten horse-power engine27. The story says that Watt made the first ____.A. engineB. horse-power engineC. useful engineD. widely used steam engine28. James Watt was born in ____.A. a worker’s familyB. a farmer’s familyC. a teacher’s familyD. a doctor’s steam engine29. Watt wanted to find a way to ____.A. measure the work his engine could doB. tell people how powerful his engine wasC. lift a 3300-pound weightD. both A and B30. One horse-power means the ____.A. work a horse could do in a minuteB. weight a horse could do in ten minutesC. work a horse could do in ten minutesD. weight of one horseIII.

大学英语期末考试题及参考答案大学英语期末考试题一、选词填空(共计30分，每小题2分)Passage 1I never used to go anywhere without the car. I regarded it as an essential part of myself. But when the price of gas doubled in this year, I decided not to use the car except when absolutely necessary. For example, I always used to take the car when I went to fetch the papers on Sunday mornings, although our newsagents is only 10 minutes walk away. Now I go on foot.I tell myself that Im not only saving the gas but keeping fit at the same time. Its all a question of habit really. Im sure you can get used to anything if you try and already feel that I rely on the car less than I used to. Besides, now that we live in the suburbs, I can walk down the road and catch a bus to the office or to any part of the town. We used to live in the country about 15 miles from town and then I would frequently drive to and fro twice in one day. That meant I would use 15 gallons of oil or more in a week. Now I only need half that amount. The trouble is that I am also getting used to the gas prices. They dont seem so high tome any more. Perhaps it is easier to get used to expensive gas than it is to doing without the ear.Questions 26--30 are based on Passage 1.26. When the price of gas doubled in this year, the author decidedA. to go everywhere without a carB. only to take the car to fetch the papersC. to use the car when he had toD. to go on foot everywhere27. In the sentence "Its all a question of habit really," the pronoun "It" refers toA. saving the gasB. keeping fitC. not only saving the gas but keeping fit at the same timeD. not relying too much on the car28. To go to the newsagents to get his newspaper, the authorA. used to walk for 10 minutesB. used to drive his carC. walked down the road to the officeD. walked for 10 minutes to keep fit29. We know from the passage that the authorA. is getting used to living in the country about 15 miles from townB. used to go to and come back from town twice a day by carC. usually buys 15 gallons of oil or more in a weekD. only spends 7.5 pounds on gas now30. The last sentence of the passage suggests thatA. the author still can not get used to doing without the carB. the author feels that the high price of gas is a great problemC. it is easy to use gas at high pricesD. the price of gas is not high any more点击下页还有更多大学英语期末考试题：词汇与结构阅读下面的小对话，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上写出所选的字母符号。

Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A., B., C., and D.. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions31to35are based on the following passage:Philanthropy is a way that people and organizations show concern for others or work to improve the world. Approximately 72 percent of Americans donate to charity (慈善机构), and 51 percent do volunteer work. About 2 millions not-for-profit organizations and charities in the United States today receive this help.There are three types of philanthropists: individuals, foundations, and private corporations. Individuals give money or volunteer their time to support causes that are important to them. Foundations are organizations started by very wealthy individuals. Their “business”is not to make a profit but to give money away to not-for-profits.Private corporations may also use a portion of their business profits to make donations, or they may give away their products or services free of charge. However, foundations and corporations are responsible for only 20 percent of charitable donations; 80 percent comes from individuals.What makes people and institutions give away their time and money? One reason is altruism, the unselfish desire to help other people and make the world a better place. Other reasons involve personal interest. Under US tax law, an individual or business does not have to pay income tax on money that is donated to charity.

Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Be sure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).German careers or jobs fall into several categories. First, there are positions that require strong ability in German with a company in Germany,Austria or Switzerland. This category may also include a job requiring good German and/or bilingual (双语的) skills within a company doing business in the US, Canada, Mexico or elsewhere. Secondly, there are jobs that can be done in English in German Europe. Then there are German companies abroad.Most minor and many major positions are filled by recruiting German, Austrian or Swiss nationals. If you are already in German Europe, you may have a better chance of finding a job. In any case, it is best if your company can handle all the formalities involved when a foreign national takes a job in Germany. There are also relocation services that can help with this if you don’t have any ideas yourself.The German unemployment rate has remained at a fairly high level over the last decade. It is almost impossible for a non-German to get a job in Germany unless she/he can prove that it can’t be done by a German national. In certain fields, such as computer science or information systems, “green card”foreign workers have been imported,but this practice is still uncommon. The reality of searching for and finding a suitable position in German Europe or with a German firm means two main things: knowledge and planning. Too many times, job seekers have unrealistic expectations. Often they overestimate their language skills and underestimate the level of competition.Another danger is ignoring culture shock.That’s why we also offer links to culture-related sites.For getting most German jobs, it is your ability in a field—computers, teaching, advertising, etc.—rather than your German skills that will be the biggest factor in a successful search. But all other things being equal between you and another candidate, it is the person with the best language skills who usually gets the job.41.What is the requirement of the job within a company doing business in the US,Canada, Mexico or elsewhere included in the first category?42.What might the company do for the benefit of a foreign employee?43.What seems to be “hot” fields if you are to find a job in German?44.What is the reason for the author to offer links to culture-related sites?45.What is more important to get most German jobs according to the passage?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, 0.5 mark each)Directions:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.
