北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2015.05.09 Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula(配方奶粉). “Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, "says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health. (76) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby's health. This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who's breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby's IQ(智商)by a few points. But a recent study with siblings(兄弟姐妹)found little advantage to breast-feeding. Horta says these previous studies didn't follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests. Those who were breast-fed for 12 months or more had IQtest scores that were 3.76 points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found. When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making, they also found a clear difference: Those who were breast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher. 1. From the passage, we learn that Horta_______________ . A. is from Brazil B. conducts his research in the U.S. C. has 30 researchers on his team D. is well-known in developing countries 2. Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned?A. They stayed longer in schoolB. They were happierC. They were smarterD. They made more money 3. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Doctors don't understand the benefits of breast-feeding. B. Horta is concerned with water contamination in poor countries. C. Horta's research project lasted about 30 years D. Breast-feeding is the only way to improve a baby's health 4. The word contaminated in Paragraph 3 is closest in meaning to____.A. finishedB. interestedC. clearedD. polluted 5. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage? A. Researchers Have Pointed Out the Disadvantages of Breast-feeding B. Researchers Have Found Out the Shortcomings of Formula C. Breast-feeding Improves Chances of Success D. Breast-feeding Benefits Both Mother and Baby Passage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage: Maggie Walker was born in 1867 in Richmond, Virginia. Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman's house. When Maggie was very young, a thief killed her father. Her family was impoverished, so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home. Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day, but she continued to go to school. She was a very good student, especially in math. After Maggie graduated from high school, she got a job as a teacher. In 1886, she married Armistead Walker. They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them. She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St. Luke. This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead. Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization. The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other. Over the years, Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization. In 1895, she suggested that St. Luke begin a program for young people. (77) This program became very popular with schoolchildren. In 1899, Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization. However, because she was a woman, she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her. The Order of St. Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over. It had a lot of unpaid bills and only $31.61 in the bank. But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that. (78) Her idea was to get new members to join the Organization. In just a few years, it grew from 3,400 members to 50,000 members. The organization bought a $100,000 office building and increased its staff to 55. Now Walker was ready for her next big step. 6. Maggie's father died____________. A. when she finished high school B. before she was born C. when she was very young D. after she got married 7. Which of the following is NOT TRUE? A. Maggie had two children. B. Maggie was once a slave. C. Maggie was good at math. D. Maggie taught for a while. 8. Which of the following is TRUE? A. Maggie loved to help other African Americans. B. Maggie was very popular with school teachers. C. Maggie was the founder of the Order of St. Luke. D. Maggie was better paid than men as Grand Secretary Treasurer. 9. The word impoverished in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _______.A. difficultB. richC. famousD. poor 10. After Paragraph 4, the author will probably talk about Maggie's__________________A. educationB. next projectC. payD. childhood Passage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage: When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year, he promised to end a controversial (有争议的), citywidecell-phone ban(禁令)in public schools, which is not equally enforced in all schools. Now, under his leadership, the city is preparing to end the ban. It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class. Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says, “If we don't see it, we don't know about it.” That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones, as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets. But at the 88 city schools with metal detectors, die ban has been strictly enforced. The detectors were installed to keep weapon out of schools,but the scanners(扫描器)can also detect cell phones. So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them. The ban was put into place in 2007 under mayor Michael Bloomberg. Ending the ban will also likely end an industrythat has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans(厢式货车)that resemble food tracks store teens' cell phones and Other devices for a dollar a day, (79) Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency. They also saythat enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory. Where the ban is enforced, it puts a disadvantage on students who can't afford to pay to store their phones. Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban, city education officials are working on creating a new policy. (80) It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests. 11. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage? A. New York City will give financial aid to poor students. B. New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries. C. New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools. D. New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools. 12. Students pay ______ a day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.A. a dollarsB. two dollarsC. five dollarsD. ten dollars 13. Metal detectors were installed in 88 city schools, mainly to keep _______ out of schools.A. cell phonesB. weaponsC. alcoholD. drugs 14. The word discriminatory in Paragraph 5 probablymeans________.A. necessaryB. toughC. strictD. unfair 15. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE? A. After the cell-phone ban is ended, students can use their phones during class. B. The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools. C. The cell-phone ban was put into place in 2008 under Mayor Bill de Blasio. D. A phone-storage industry has appeared outside the 88 metal-detector campuses.

2015年11月学位英语真题(含答案)

2015年11月7日学位英语真题Part I reading comprehension (30%)Passage 1Since its founding in 1948, McDonald’s has grown from a family burger(汉堡包)stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies’ purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index(巨无霸指数). That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn't serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald’s as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism(沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald’s under construction to protest globalization and “bad food.” The nest year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.1.According to the passage, which of the following statements isNOT TRUE?A.McDonald’s was founded in 1948.B.McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C.McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.D.McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.2.The word “ubiquitous”in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean_____.A. very crowdedB. very cleanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently3.From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that _____.A.McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local peoplelions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’sC.the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such asthe Big MacD.the low prices of McDonald’s bring tens of millions of peoplethrough its door every day.4.What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest againstMcDonald’s?A.They organized a strike.B.They protested outside a McDonald’s.C.They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s.D.They destroyed a McDonald’s under construction.5.In _____, an employee died in a fatal bomb attack on aMcDonald’s restaurant in France.A.1998B. 1999C. 2000D. 2001Passage 2Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印第安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (77) He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim has twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (78) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a start athlete(运动员)in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the US Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength, the pentathlon has five track and field events, including the longjump, and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “Thanks, King.”6.From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ____.A.IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden7.According to the passage, most American Indian children lovedall the following except ______.A.fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing8.Jim Thorpe started to play sports _____.A.before he was nine years oldB. when he was 16 years oldB.when he was 24 years old D. before his parents passed away9.The word decathlon in Paragraph 3 probably means _____.A.jumpingB. five track and field eventsB.throwing D. ten track and field events10.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B.Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C.Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D.In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. Passage 3It can be really frustrating(使人沮丧的)for an overweight person to got a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “skinny”members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering (迎合)to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “skinny” people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). (79) They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted(有色的)windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it’s a step in the right direction.11. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closet in meaning to ____.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that _____.A. most large gym chains really don’t want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away bytraditional gym industry.C. regular gyms don’t accept overweight people to participate intheir programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a model.D. To be able to run long distances.14. As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. The machines are designed for larger people.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are large mirrors on the walls,D. The training goals are more realistic.15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Improving Women’s Self-confidence through ExercisesB. The Traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC. The Fitness Industry Is Looking for New DirectionsD. Specialized Gyms Designed for Overweight PeoplePart II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)16.

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter.Passage OneHere's a familiar story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a furry, four-legged friend scratching at your feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle(爱抚)chemical.The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding. Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left behind by the humans.Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change. They became more loyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bond with each other. These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now know as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their environment.This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them. And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytocin?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C. It is in the human gene.D. It is good for health.12. When we look deeply into a dog's eyes, the levels of our oxytocin ____.A. reduce over timeB. go either up or downC. are on the riseD. remain unchanged13. At the beginning wolves followed humans to ____.A. eat the food left by humansB. guard against large animalsC. take humans for foodD. hunt large animals together14. Over time some wolves turned into dogs ____.A. due to their loyaltyB. due to the changing environmentC. for better survivalD. for better cooperation15. What does Nagasawa9s study aim to do?A. Explore the role of human-wolf partnership.B. Show the characteristics of the cuddle chemical.C. Explain the bond between humans and dogs.D. Understand the evolution of species.Passage TwoRed Nose Day (RND) is a well-known event in the UK. The aim of the day is to raise money for a charity called Comic Relief which helps people in need in Africa and in the UK.Comic Relief was started in 1985 by the scriptwriter Richard Curtis. He wrote the famous films 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and 'Notting Hill'. Richard's idea to start Comic Relief was as a response to the severe famine in Ethiopia* It's called Red "Nose Day as on this day many people buy a plastic red nose to wear! The money made from selling red noses goes to the charity.Red Nose Day takes place every two years in the spring and is now so well established that many people consider it to be an unofficial. For example, many schools have non-uniform days.The slogan for the last RND was ‘Do Something Funny for Money' and the money that was collected helped to fund projects in the following areas, treating malaria(疟疾), education, and mental health. The BBC Red Nose Day program raised £74.3 million! Money-raising events take place all over the country and many schools participate. People also donate money by post, in banks, by phone using a credit card and online.In the evening of Red Nose Day a telethon takes place on the BBC TV channels. It shows on and on a selection of the events of the day, as well as lots of comic sketches and reports of how the money raised will be spent. People also upload videos of local charity events on YouTube and Facebook.So, if you are ever in the UK on Red Nose Day, now you know why you may find normal people wearing red noses and doing silly things! It's all for a good cause.16. Red Nose Day is ____.A. a traditional holiday in the UKB. a famous event in BritainC. the helping center for poor peopleD. the popular name of a charity17. What does the passage say about Richard Curtis?A. He likes, to wear a plastic red nose.B. He is a well-known film director.C. He started a charity in the 1980s.D.

2015年11月真题解析

2015年11月7日北京学位英语考试真题答案详解-阅读理解Part ⅠReading Comprehension (30%)Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印弟安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (77) He was healthy and he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (78) The team paid him $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员)in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S. Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gol d medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, "Thanks, King."1. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ____.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden题干:从文章中,我们可以发现Jim Thorpe出生于哪里?答案及解析:C。

2016年11月-北京地区成人本科学士学位英语真题及答案

2016年11月-北京地区成人本科学士学位英语真题及答案

2016年11月北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by somequestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide 0,7 the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:As the National Park Service celebrates its 100th anniversary 〔周年纪念〕, President Barack Obama has announced the establishment of one new national monument, and the expansion (扩大) of another. In Maine, more than 87,500 acres of forest will become government-protected parkland for the first time. In Hawaii, a national monument created by President George W. Bush in 2006 will expand to about 582,578 square miles, four times its current size.Obama has now created or enlarged 26 national monuments during his presidency. As a result, his administration says, Obama has protected more of the nation's land than any other president has. But some residents and officials, in both Maine and Hawaii, object to the plans. (76) They say their local economies depend on the use of these areas.In establishing this monument, Obama took the side of conservationists (自然资源保护者) who want laws to protect wild lands. Creating a national park usually 1/ 48requires the approval of Congress. But a 1906 federal law allows the president to establish national monuments on his own.The land's new status as a monument means that mining and drilling operations are forbidden there. (77) It may also severely limit activities such as logging, road-building, and hunting. Some of Maine's politicians who want to protect the state's logging industries say Obama should not have acted alone. They say Washington should not tell the states how to use their land, especially when people's jobs are at stake. Maine politician Susan Collins said the president should have listened to Maine lawmakers and residents, as well as to the U.S. Congress, before making his decision.However, those who support the president's decision say the establishment of the new monument will lead to new jobs through tourism.1. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Creating New JobsB. Protecting Wild AnimalsC. Stimulating Local EconomiesD. Creating New National Monuments2. Obama has established or enlarged________national monuments during his two terms .A. 19B. 20C. 26D. 302/ 483. In national monuments,____________is forbidden.A. loggingB. huntingC. miningD. road-building4. The phrase at stake in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaningto__________________.A. in returnB. in dangerC. at presentD. by chance5. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. The national monument in Hawaii was created by President Bush.B. There is no objection to President Obama's decision.C. President Obama made this decision on his own.D. The establishment of the new monument will lead to new jobs.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Toronto's third City Hall, now known as Old City Hall, was designed by Edward James Lennox and declared open on Sept. 18, 1899.3/ 48Created to provide more space for city officials, it turned out to be the largest building in the city and the largest city building in North America at the time.Lennox took three years to design the City Hall and it took 11 years to build it. Contemporaries believe that the odd carvings (雕刻) above the Queen Street entrance were actually caricatures (漫画) of councilors at the time.Lennox even included himself in the caricatures, on the west side of the central arch (拱门), and left a strange signature in the stonework of the link portions of the building.The third City Hall was originally used as councilors' offices and legal offices, but it is used only as a courthouse today.When the fourth City Hall (the one we know today) was declared open in 1965, Old City Hall was threatened to be pulled down. It was saved by a group of people called the "Friends of Old City Hall. "The clock tower stands parallel with the middle of Bay Street, rather than with the center of the building. The bells in the tower were not installed until the building opened. Old City Hall was declared a historical site in 1989.(78) The entire structure cost more than $2.5 million to build at the time. This is equal to $53 million today.6.Toronto's third City Hall came into use in___________.A. the 18th centuryB. the 19th centuryC. the 20th century4/ 48D. the 21st century7. Old City Hall was constructed in ________________ years.A. 3B. 7C. 9D. 118.The third City Hall is now used as a_______________.A. middle schoolB. hospitalC. cinemaD. courthouse9. From the passage we learn that______________.A. Toronto spends lots of money yearly developing the cityB. some local residents showed a great interest in protecting the city's cultural siteC. the City Council of Toronto hasn't paid sufficient attention to the protection of the city's cultureD. the City Hall is still the largest city building in North America today10. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage'?5/ 48A. To build a structure like the City Hall will cost $2.5 million today.B. The clock tower stands parallel with the centre of the City Hall.C. Old City Hall was once pulled down in the development of the city.D. Old City Hall is now a historical site.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:If the Dakota Access Pipeline (输油管) is completed, it will carry nearly half a million barrels of oil across four states every day. Energy Transfer Partners (ETP), a Texas-based company behind the $3.8 billion project, hopes to finish construction this year. But the Standing Rock Sioux, an American Indian tribe (部落), is determined to stop the 1,172-mile pipeline from being built. (79) Both sides show no signs of backing down.The Dakota Access Pipeline was announced in 2014. A section of it will run near the Standing Rock Sioux reservation. A reservation is an area of land set aside for American Indians. The tribe says the construction threatens to destroy historical areas and ancient burial sites. They also say the pipeline could pollute their main water source, the Missouri River. In April, the Standing Rock Sioux began a protest against the project. They camped at the construction site. Since then, thousands of people, including people from other American Indian tribes, have traveled to the site to join the protest.ETP says that the pipeline will have built-in safety measures to protect against oil leaks. Workers will also monitor it remotely, and will be able to close valves (阀) within three minutes if leaks are detected.American Indians have been staging a nonviolent protest for months. The protest took a turn last week when police were called to keep the peace between6/ 48protesters and armed security guards hired by the company.(80) Twenty-eight people have been arrested since then and charged with interfering with the pipeline construction.11. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A. The Dakota Access Pipeline will create more markets for oil and gas.B. The Dakota Access Pipeline will create many job opportunities.C. American Indians oppose the construction of an oil pipeline.D. American Indians fight for equal voting rights.12. ETP hopes to finish this project in ______.A. 2016B. 2017C. 2018D. 201913. Why do American Indians protest against the construction of this pipeline?A. Because it will cost up to $3.8 billion.B. Because it threatens the region's water supply.C. Because it will make many people lose their jobs.D. Because it will force many people to leave their homes.14. According to the passage, the workers can___________ in case of pipeline leaks.7/ 48A. report it to the local governmentB. ask people to leave the leak affected areasC. call 911D. close valves15. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. This pipeline will cross four states.B. This pipeline is 1,172 miles long.C. All the protesters are from the Standing Rock Sioux.D.

A female will dig 69 a nest with her flippers and lay about 115 eggs. Then she'll cover the eggs 70 sand and return to the sea. After about two months, the babies will use a special "egg tooth" to break their shells and hatch (孵化) from their eggs.The first few years of a green sea turtle's life are spent 71 at sea, where they feed on tiny animals and plants 72 live in the surface layer of the sea. As they grow older, the turtles move to 73 waters along the coast, where they find sea grass to eat.18/ 48Adult green sea turtles face many threats, primarily from humans, including injuries from passing boats, being 74 in fishing nets and pollution.

He didn’t have food,water,a phone,or other supplies.He was getting colder by the minute.Nicholas had no idea where he was.He tried not to panic.He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV.It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.He decided to stop skiing.There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put.The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow.If he didn’t,his body temperature would get very low,which could quickly kill him.Using his skis,Nicholas built a snow cave.He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle.Then he piled branches on top of himself,like a blanket,to stay as warm as he could.By that evening,Nicholas was really hungry.He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water.Not knowing how much longer he could last,Nicholas did the only thing he could―he huddled(蜷缩)in his cave and slept.The next day,Nicholas went out to look for help,but he couldn’t find anyone.He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave,because without shelter,he could die that night.On Tuesday,Nicholas went out again to find help.He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him.After two days stuck in thesnow,Nicholas was saved.Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV.He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs.Wild.That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life.In each episode(一期节目)of Man vs. Wild,Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds,he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.36. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?A. He got lost.B. He broke his skis.C. He hurt his eyes.D. He caught a cold.37. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?A. He found a shelter.B. He lighted some branches.C. He kept on skiing.D. He built a snow cave.38. On Tuesday,Nicholas .A. returned to his shelter safelyB. was saved by a searcherC. got stuck in the snowD. stayed where he was39. Nicholas left Grylls a very deep impression because he .A. did the right things in the dangerous situationB. watched Grylls’ TV program regularlyC. created some tips for survivalD. was very hard-workingBRevolutionary TV EarsTV Ears has helped thousands of people with various degrees of hearing loss hear the television clearly without turning up the volume(音量) and now it’s better and more affordable than ever!

This advertisement is made more believable by ___.A. using recommendationsB. offering reasons for this inventionC. providing statisticsD. showing the results of experimentsCLife in the ClearTransparent animals let light pass through their bodies the same way light passes through a window.These animals typically live between the surface of the ocean and a depth of about 3,300 feet―as far as most light can reach.Most of them are extremely delicate and can be damaged by a simple touch.Sonke Johnsen,ascientist in biology,says,“These animals live through their life alone.They never touch anything unless they’re eating it,or unless something is eating them.”And they are as clear as glass.How does an animal become see-through? It’s trickier than you might think.The objects around you are visible because they interact with light.Light typically travels in a straight line.But some materials slow and scatter(散射) light,bouncing it away from its original path.Others absorb light,stopping it deadin its tracks.Both scattering and absorption make an object look different from other objects around it,so you can see it easily.But a transparent object doesn’t absorb or scatter light,at least not very much.Light can pass through it without bending or stopping.That means a transparent object doesn’t look very different from the surrounding air or water.You don’t see it―you see the things behind it.To become transparent,an animal needs to keep its body from absorbing or scattering light.Living materials can stop light because they contain pigments(色素) that absorb specific colors of light.But a transparent animal doesn’t have pigments,so its tissues won’t absorb light.According to Johnsen,avoiding absorption is actually easy.The real challenge is preventing light from scattering.Animals are built of many different materials―skin,fat,and more―and light moves through each at a different speed.Every time light moves into a material with a new speed,it bends and scatters.Transparent animals use different tricks to fight scattering.Some animals are simply very small or extremely flat.Without much tissue to scatter light,it is easier to be see-through.Others build a large,clear mass of non-living jelly-like(果冻状的)material and spread themselves over it.Larger transparent animals have the biggest challenge,because they have to make all the different tissues in their bodies slow down light exactly as much as water does.They need to look uniform.But how they’re doing it is still unknown.One thing is clear:for these larger animals,staying transparent is an active process.When they die,they turn a non-transparent milky white.43. According to Paragraph 1,transparent animals .A. stay in groupsB. can be easily damagedC. appear only in deep oceanD. are beautiful creatures44. The underlined word“dead” in Paragraph 3 means .A. silentlyB. graduallyC. regularlyD. completely45. One way for an animal to become transparent is to .A. change the direction of light travelB. gather materials to scatter lightC. avoid the absorption of lightD. grow bigger to stop light46. The last paragraph tells us that larger transparent animals .A. move more slowly in deep waterB. stay see-through even after deathC. produce more tissues for their survivalD. take effective action to reduce light spreadingDTechnological change is everywhere and affects every aspect of life, mostly for the better. However, social changes that are brought about by new technology are often mistaken for a change in attitudes.An example at hand is the involvement of parents in the lives of their children who are attending college. Surveys (调查) on this topic suggest that parents today continue to be "very" or "somewhat" overly-protective even after their children moveinto college dormitories. The same surveys also indicate that the rate of parental involvement is greater today than it was a generation ago. This is usually interpreted as a sign that today's parents are trying to manage their children's lives past the point where this behavior is appropriate.However, greater parental involvement does not necessarily indicate that parents are failing to let go of their "adult" children.In the context (背景) of this discussion, it seems valuable to first find out the cause of change in the case of parents' involvement with their grown children.If parents of earlier generations had wanted to be in touch with their college-age children frequently, would this have been possible? Probably not. On the other hand, does the possibility of frequent communication today mean that the urge to do so wasn't present a generation ago? Many studies show that older parents―today's grandparents―would have called their children more often if the means and cost of doing so had not been a barrier.Furthermore, studies show that finances are the most frequent subject of communication between parents and their college children. The fact that college students are financially dependent on their parents is nothing new; nor are requests for more money to be sent from home. This phenomenon is neither good nor bad; it is a fact of college life, today and in the past.Thanks to the advanced technology, we live in an age of bettered communication. This has many implications well beyond the role that parents seem to play in the lives of their children who have left for college. But it is useful to bear in mind that all such changes come from the technology and not some imagined desire by parents to keep their children under their wings.47. The surveys inform us of ________.A. the development of technologyB. the changes of adult children's behaviorC. the parents' over-protection of their college childrenD. the means and expenses of students' communication48. The writer believes that ________.A. parents today are more protective than those in the pastB. the disadvantages of new technology outweigh its advantagesC. technology explains greater parental involvement with their childrenD. parents' changed attitudes lead to college children's delayed independence49. What is the best title for the passage?A. Technology or AttitudeB. Dependence or IndependenceC. Family Influences or Social ChangesD. College Management or Communication Advancement50. Which of the following shows the development of ideas in this passage?I:IntroductionP:PointSp:Sub-point ( 次要点)C:ConclusionA. B.C. D.This Way to DreamlandDaydreaming means people think about something pleasant,especially when this makes them forget what they should be doing.Daydreamers have a bad reputation for being unaware of what’s happening around them.They can seem forgetful and clumsy. (1) They annoy us because they seem to be ignoring us and missing the important things.But daydreamers are also responsible for some of the greatest ideas and achievements in human history. (2) Can you imagine what kind of world we would have without such ideas and inventions?So how can you come up with brilliant daydreams and avoid falling over tree roots or otherwise looking like a fool?First,understand that some opportunities(机会) for daydreaming are better than others.Feeling safe and relaxed will help you to slip into daydreams. (3) And if you want to improve your chances of having a creative idea while you’re daydreaming,try to do it while you are involved in anothertask―preferably something simple,like taking a shower or walking,or even making meaningless drawings.It’s also important to know how to avoid daydreams for those times when you really need to concentrate.“Mindfulness”,being focused,is a tool that some people use to avoid falling asleep. (4) Finally,you never know what wonderful idea might strike while your mind has moved slowly away. (5) Always remember that your best ideas might come when your head is actuallyin the clouds.A.Having interesting things to think about also helps.B.They stare off into space and wander by themselves.C.Without wandering minds,we wouldn’t have relativity,Coke or Post-it notes.D.At one time,daydreaming was thought to be a cause of some mental illnesses.E.It involves slow,steady breathing for self-control that helps people stay calm and attentive.F.Daydreams are often very simple and direct,quite unlike sleep dreams,which may be hard to understand.G.Therefore,it’s a good idea to keep a notebook or voice recorder nearby when you’re in the daydream zone.51.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2015.11.07Part ⅠReading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheer.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory(印弟安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (77) He was healthy and he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (78) The team paid him $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员)in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S. Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, "Thanks, King."1.

" Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, "Thanks, King. "第1题 From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in__________.A.IndiaB.PennsylvaniaC.OklahomaD.Sweden答案:C第2题 According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT __________.A.fishingB.huntingC.swimmingD.singing答案:D第3题 Jim Thorpe started to play sports__________.A.before he was nine years oldB.when he was 16 years oldC.when he was 24 years oldD.before his parents passed away答案:B第4题 The word decathlon in Paragraph 3 probably means__________.A.jumpingB.five track and field eventsC.throwingD.ten track and field events答案:D第5题 Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B.Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C.Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D.In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.答案:AIt can be really frustrating(使人沮丧的) for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy,sweating, "skinny" members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well, zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and fee] isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness in-dustry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合) to overweight and weight con-scious customers by dedicating areas where the "skinny" people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌) .(78) They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted (有色的)windows for privacy, are all important changes.(79) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and im-prove our fitness level, it's a step in the right direction.第6题 The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to__________.A.fatB.healthyC.friendlyD.polite答案:A第7题 We can infer from the first two paragraphs that__________.A.most large gym chains really don't want members to show up frequentlyB.overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC.regular gyms don't accept overweight people to participate in their programsD.overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym答案:B第8题 What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A.To achieve functional fitness.B.To build six-pack abs.C.To look like a fitness model.D.To be able to run long distances.答案:A第9题 As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A.The machines are designed for larger people.B.Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C.There are large mirrors on the walls.D.The training goals are more realistic.答案:C第10题 Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Improving Women's Self-confidence through ExercisesB.The Traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC.The Fitness Industry Is Looking for New DirectionsD.Specialized Gyms Designed for Overweight People答案:DSince its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger(汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald's is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald's, called the Big Mac Index (巨无霸指数). That's not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald's in India doesn't serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town.Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义),and European nations in particular have viewed American-syle fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food.

2015年11月7日北京学位英语真题答案及试题点评Passage 1Jim Thorpe was a Native American. He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory (印弟安人保护区)that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native American children then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the time he was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left school for two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77)The team paid him $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete(运动员)in several sports, including baseball, running, and football. He won many awards for his athletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U.S. Olympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race. The decathlon has ten track and field events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. When the King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his two gold medals, he said, “Sir, you are the greatest athlete in the world” Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, "Thanks, King."1. From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in ____.A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC. OklahomaD. Sweden2. According to the passage, most American Indian children loved all the following EXCEPT ____.A. fishingB. huntingC. swimmingD. singing3. Jim Thorpe started to play sports ____.A. before he was nine years oldB. when he was 16 years oldC. when he was 24 years oldD. before his parents passed away4. The word decathlon in Paragraph 3 probably means ____.A. jumpingB. five track and field eventsC. throwingD. ten track and field events5. Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. In 1912, Thorpe went back to finish his college education.B. Thorpe won two gold medals in the 1912 Olympic Games.C. Thorpe once played on a baseball team for money.D. In 1950, Thorpe was named the greatest American football player.Passage 2It can be really frustrating(使人沮丧的)for an overweight person to go to a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, "skinny" members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are, well,zaftig. It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up with that?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes of while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering(迎合)to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the "skinny" people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommend functional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs(六块腹肌). (78)They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves, or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors ,and tinted(有色的)windows for privacy, are all important changes.(79) Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it's a step in the right direction.6. The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ____.A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite7. We can infer from the first two paragraphs that ____.A. most large gym chains really don't want members to show up frequentlyB. overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC. regular gyms don't accept overweight people to participate in their programsD. overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym8. What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a fitness model. D To be able to run long distances.9. As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. The machines are designed for larger people.B. Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C. There are large mirrors on the walls.D. The training goals are more realistic.10. Which of the following is the title for the passage?A. Improving Women's Self-confidence through exercisesB.The traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC.The fitness Industry is looking for New DirectionsD.Specialized Gyms Disigned for Overweight PeoplePassage 3Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger(汉堡包)stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries.With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index(巨无霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations servefried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) No one claimed responsibility.But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization.11. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE.A. McDonald's was founded in 1948.B. McDonald’s has opened its restaurants in every city of the world.C. McDonald’s has over 30,000 locations in the world now.D. McDonald’s was very small in scale in the beginning.12. The word ubiquitous in Paragraph 2 is most likely to mean ____.A. very crowdedB. very deanC. existing everywhereD. occurring frequently13. From Paragraph 2, we can conclude that ____.A. McDonald’s designs its menu to suit the local peopleB. millions of young adults got their first job with McDonald’sC. the McDonald’s menu sticks to old-fashioned favorites such as the Big MacD. the low prices McDonald’s bring tens of millions of people through its doors every day14. What did Jose Bove and his people do in 1999 to protest against McDonald's?A. They organized a strike.B. They protested outside a McDonald’s.C. They refused to go to a newly-built McDonald’s.D. They destroyed a McDonald’s under construction.15.
