For instance, telephone and cell phone become so popular that you can anywhere if you want. Household electrical appliances free us from housework so that we can enjoy more leisure time. Modern transportation makes the world so small that you can travel by air from one city to another in a few hours which could take several days by trains.In spite the above benefits we gained from the development of science and technology, however, everyone now worries about the pressure modern life. As more and more machines are applied in our daily life, life pace keeps getting faster and the world is getting too complex. As we pursue more and more material things such as luxury cars, personal computers, big houses etc. our financial pressures are growing. As job markets become shrinking and job competition becomes intense, everyone worries about losing his job. What’s more, many people are now faced with the threat of terrorists or live in constant fear because of the unfair wealth distribution between the rich and the poor.Since human beings are largely a pleasure seeking and pain-avoiding creature, we never stop inventing things to release us from hard labor. And we also try our best to prove that we are the masters of our surrounding. Th at’s why our civilization keeps going fo rward and every new generation benefits from the efforts made by previous one. As high tech develops at a surprisingly high speed, we will gain more instead of suffering more and our future bright and promising.11. B 事实细节题。

英语模拟卷I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分) Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneOn June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could now read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named “genes” in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word”means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people。

I. Reading Comprehension（本题共 20 小题，每题 2 分共 40 分）Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A.B.C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneIf one is asked about the best way to improve one's reading ability, it is of course, to read. As a student, you must make a real effort to improve both your reading speed and your comprehension. Too many students read passively and without judgment; they simply start at the first word and read through to the end. You should read a passage actively, selectively and purposefully. You must believe that you indeed have the ability to read faster and understand more, and that you will.Reading, like everything else in life, is best done when you are relaxed. The key to improve it is concentration. You must be willing to break some old habits and form new ones. Extra body movement, such as turning the head from side to side, pointing at the line with a finger or a pencil, or moving the lips, should be stopped immediately. Reading is mostly a mental process and body movement helps neither speed nor comprehension. Then you shouldsee words as part of a whole sentence or paragraph, not just in isolation. This is why a slow, word-by-word student often understands far less, missing much of the joy and excitement of reading.The student must learn to improve reading skills on their own, and not just when a teacher is looking over his shoulder. Reading improvement takes discipline and effort. Don't give up.1.If you want to improve your reading ability, you should .A. read each word in the passage carefullyB. read with choice, purpose and confidenceC. start at the first wordD. read a passage completely from the beginning to the end2.The best title of the passage might be “”.A. How to Improve Your Reading AbilityB. How to Cultivate Good Habits in ReadingC. Developing Reading MethodsD. Getting Rid of Your Bad Habits While Reading3.Best reading efficiency can be achieved if one .A. reads paragraph by paragraphB. reads in great detailC. reads with focusD. reads as fast as possible4.According to the author, all the following are the bad habits in reading EXCEPT.A. moving the lipsB. pointing at words with somethingC. holding a book in handsD. turning the head from side to side5.The phrase "looking over his shoulder" in Paragraph 3 may best be replaced by “”.A. watching himB. examining his shoulderC. encouraging himD. looking at someone behind himPassage TwoOur memories can be both sweet and bitter. Many people spend all their lives to forget those bitter ones. Violence and traffic accidents, esp. can leave people with terrible physicaland emotional scars. Often they relive these experiences in nightmares.Now American researchers are developing a pill which will help people forget bad memories. The pill is designed to be taken immediately after a frightening experience. They hope it might reduce, or possibly erase, the effect of painful memories.In November, experts tested a drug on people in the US and France. The drug stops the body from releasing chemicals that fix memories in the brain. So far the research has suggested that only the emotional effects of memories may be reduced, not that the memories are erased.The research has caused a great deal of argument. Some think it is a bad idea, while others support it.Supporters say it could lead to pills that prevent or treat soldiers' troubling memories after war. They say that there are many people who suffer from terrible memories."Some memories can ruin people's lives. They come back to you when you don't want to have them in a daydream or nightmare. They usually come with very painful emotions." said Roger Pit man, a professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This could relieve a lot of that suffering."But those who are against the research say that changing memories is very dangerous because memories give us our identity(特质). They also help us all avoid the mistakes of the past."All of us can think of bad events in our lives that were horrible at the time but make us who we are. I'm not sure we want to wipe those memories out." said Rebecca Dresser, a medical ethicist.6.The passage is mainly about .A. a new medical inventionB. an argument about the research on the pillC. a way of erasing painful memoriesD. a new research on the pill7.American researchers are developing a pill to .A. comfort those people who are in a frightening experienceB. help those people to forget their frightening experienceC. persuade those people to forget their frightening experienceD. test those people's degree of fright in a frightening experience8.The drug tested on people can .A. prevent the body from producing certain chemicalsB. relieve people of the mental tensionC. cause the brain to fix memoriesD. wipe out the memories of bad experiences9.We can infer from the passage that .A. people supporting the research believe that the pill will stop people's bad experiencesB. people supporting the research believe the pill will help people to reduce the harm caused by bad experiencesC. people against the research believe that the effect of the pills may not bed desirableD. people against the research believe that the pill will cause them to make mistakes10. Which of the following does Rebecca Dresser agree with?A. Some memories can ruin people's lives.B. People want to get rid of bad memories.C. The pill will reduce people's suffering from bad memories.D. Experiencing bad events makes us different from others.Passage ThreeLarge modern cities are too big to control. They impose their own living conditions on the people who live in them. Persons living in cities are obliged by their environment to take a wholly unnatural way of life. They lose touch with the land and the rhythm of the nature. It is possible to live such an air-conditioned existence that you are barely conscious of the seasons. A few flowers in a public park (if you have time to visit it) may remind you that it is spring or summer. A few leaves clinging to the pavement may remind you that it is autumn. Beyond that, what is going on in nature seems totally irrelevant. All the simple, good things of life like sunshine and fresh air are difficult to obtain. and therefore are highly valued. Traffic fumes pollute the atmosphere. Tall building hide the sun completely. Even the distinction between day and night is lost.rge modem cities impose their living condition on people in thatA. sunshine and fresh air are availableB. living conditions are improvedC. beautiful landscape can be foundD. air-conditioned houses are provided12.Which is NOT one of the reasons why city life is not more desirable?A. Tall buildings hide the sun completely.B. Modern cities are too big to control.C. Modern cities offer better schools and more chances of employment.D. People are barely conscious of the seasons.13.According to the passage, the following can be the reasons for the loss of distinction between day and night except thatA. persons living in cities live in air-conditioned housesB. people lose touch with the natureC. people are traveling through different time zonesD. the sun was hidden from view by tall buildings14.If you want to know what season it is,A. it is advisable for you to live in an air-conditioned houseB. you'd better visit a public parkC. you should go out to see the sunshine and breathe the fresh airD. you should walk on the pavement15.Which statement is NOT true according to the passage?A. Large modern cities are too big to controlB. Sunshine and fresh air are rare in large modern cities.C. There are many disadvantages of living in large modern cities.D. All the simple, good things of life are imposed on the people who live in large cities.Passage FourRobots in use now are taking over the blue-collar jobs of less educated Americans, but artificial intelligence (AI) is probably ready to shake up college-educated employees in higher-paying jobs. This will leave no worker unaffected by the influence of technology on the American workforce.AI is generally regarded as programming computers to do things that normally require human intelligence-tasks such as planning, learning, reasoning and problem-solving. Muro, asenior fellow at the Brookings Institute, and his colleagues analyzed which jobs would be the most highly affected by artificial intelligence. What they learned is that almost every profession will feel Al's effects.But it’s hard to predict whether AI will take the place of more highly skilled workers in the same way robots have done to lower-skilled workers. AI might create entirely new jobs for humans. "We can't really say whether AI will lead to the support of work or its opposite. Both things could happen." says Muro.Jobs performed by people with a four-year college degree could be the hardest hit. These include market research analysts, sales managers, programmers, management analysts and engineers. Positions that are heavily involved in pattern-oriented or “predictive work” are more likely to be affected, according to the analysis.Of course, this is not the first time American workers have been influenced or potentially influenced by technology. The challenge, as Muro sees, it is to determine how humans can add value. He believes that human beings are durable in the face of new technologies. The question is how to help people accept training again, seek new work, and how they can adjust to it, or if their careers break down from this, how to provide a better social safety net.16.Who can AI affect most in the American workforce?A. Senior workers.B. Blue-collar workers.C. More-educated employees.D. Inexperienced employees.17.What did Muro and his colleagues find out?A. AI is considered as programming computers to complete tasks.B. AI can deal with tasks such as planning and reasoning.C. AI is better at problem-solving than humans.D. AI can affect almost every field.18.What can we infer from what Muto says?A. AI will replace some skilled workers.B. AI will play as a double-edged sword.C. AI will develop in the same way as robots.D. AI will create entirely new jobs for humans.19.Which of the following positions are NOT likely to be replaced by AI?A. Management analysts.B. Sales managers.C. Programmers.D. Fashion designers.20.What should human beings do in face of the challenges posed by AI?A. Use their potential to adjust to it.B. Work harder than before.C. Wait for another opportunity.D. Learn to be durable.II. Vocabulary and Structure ( 本题共 15 小题，每题 1 分，共 15 分 )Directions: For each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A.B.C and D.

Choose the best answer to each question.Passage oneTom walked into a shop. It bad a sign outside : "Second-hand (旧的) clothes bought and sold . "He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at them and then said: "Two dollars.""What !" said Tom. "I had guessed they were worth at least five dollars.""No," said the man, "they aren't worth a cent more than two dollars.""Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth."Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.1. At first the owner of the shop thought that Tom __________.A. wanted to steal the trousersB. wanted to sell the trousersC. wanted to fool himD. wanted to buy the trousers2. The owner of the shop for the old trousers.A. would give Tom two dollarsB. would pay three dollarsC. would pay five dollarsD. would give Tom six dollars and a half3. The shop owner insisted that the trousers were worth only two dollars because .A. he wanted to sell them cheaplyB. he wanted to buy them cheaplyC. he didn't like the trousersD. they were old and dirty4. In fact, the trousers .A. were hanging inside the shopB. were stolen by T om from the shopC. had been the shop owner'sD. had been Tom's5. From the story we know that _________ cheaper than the list price.A. the owner sold the trousers two dollarsB. Tom sold the trousers one dollar and a halfC. the owner bought the trousers three dollarsD. Tom bought the trousers four dollars and a halfPassage TwoAre you thinking of writing someone a letter? Call instead. It isn’t that expensive, especially when you c all during the evening, night, or weekend hours. In fact, you can make a ten-minute call anywhere in the continental United States for just $2.60.For even greater saving, always dial direct, that is, without an operator’s help. Rates (资费) on direct calls are lower after five o’clock in the evening and lowest after eleven o‘clock at night. Collect, person-to-person, and pay phone calls require the services of an operator, and they cost more than direct calls.Need to call out of the country? Now calls to many overseas places may be dialed direct. Check your telephone direction for overseas area codes.Next time you have good news, or you just want to stay in touch, remember, a phone call means so much more than a letter. This has been a message from Southern Bell T elephone Company.6. According to this passage, when is a dial telephone call cheapest?A. During weekend hours.B. After 5 in the evening.C. During working hours.D. After 11 at night.7. To make a ten-minute call costs $2.60, if you are in New York and want to be connected with a person in .A. AlaskaB. Los AngelesC. HawaiiD. Mexico city8. What type of call requires less money?A. A direct dial call.B. A collect call.C. A person-to-person call.D. A call from a pay phone.。

2017专转本英语全真模拟卷（二）第I卷（共100分）Part I Reading Comprehension（共20小题，每小题2分．共40分）Directions：In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions．Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet．Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine. He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill. He lay on his bunk（铺）and groaned as if he were very sick. The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work. Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest. Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told the “sick” man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do. The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking. At last the mate（船长副手） decided to cure the “sick” men. He mixed up some soap, soot（烟灰）, glue（胶水） and other unpleasant things. Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick” men. When they tasted the medicine, they really did feel ill. It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of his bunk, ran up on deck and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour, night and day. This soon cured them. They both said they felt better and wanted to start work again. The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1. The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to ______.A. test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB. be free from workC. have the best food on the shipD. play a joke on his friends2. When the captain knew a sailor was ill, he ______.A. didn’t care muchB. sent for a doctorC. looked after him and told him to have a restD. gave him some medicine3. The patients felt better quickly because ______.A. they had been given proper treatmentB. they learned that the captain had found out the truthC. they were laughed at by their friendsD. the medicine the mate gave them was horrible4. When the captain knew he had been deceived, he ______.A. told them not to do so againB. lost his temperC. made them work harderD. fired them5. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A. A Sudden Cure.B. Two Patients.C. Captain and Sailors.D. A Difficult Voyage.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was so difficult to separate from the ores (矿石) in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum became practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By mixing it with other metals, scientist have been able to produce a variety of alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engines of automobiles, in the hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge “airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them. Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite (铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refiningprocess with the aid of ______.A. wind powerB. solar energyC. hydraulic powerD. electricity7. Aluminum is ______.A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB. heavyweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC. lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD. lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to becomerusty8. Which of the following is not true?A. Aluminum is widely used in transportation.B. Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.C. Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.D. Aluminum is not used in its pure form.9. Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of ______.A. pure metalB. bauxiteC. goldD. liquid10. What is the passage talking about?A. The features of aluminum and its functions.B. The process of aluminum.C. The discovery of aluminum.D. The promising future of aluminum.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to l5 are based on the following passage:One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.Advertising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that if confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for – how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modernadvertising?A. Indifferent.B. Shocked.C. Disapproving.D. Approving.12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designsa product?A. Stress factors.B. Man-hours.C. Machine tolerances.D. Customer-appeal13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a productcustomer-appeal are ______.A. customersB. designersC. advertisersD. manufacturers14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, amanufacturer will choose to ______.A. lower the production costB. hire a better designerC. improve its qualityD. alter its image15. The best title for the passage might be ______.A. Advertising Since the WarB. Advertising and ManufacturersC. Advertising – England’s Biggest IndustryD. Advertising and PurchasersPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard (调车场). All of the switches (转辙器) are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity if we can see thesetting of a switch; we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our “track” many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed.16. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant futureof the universe because we ______.A. have too many conflicting theoriesB. do not have enough funding to continue our researchC. are not sure how the universe is put togetherD. have focused our investigations on the moon and planets17. What does the author see as the function of the universe’s unseen “switches”?A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.B. They enable us to alter the course of the universe.C. They give us information about the lunar surface.D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.18. In the second paragraph, the word “track” could best be replaced by which ofthe following?A. BandB. RailsC. PathD. Sequence19. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?A. Train engineers.B. General audiences.C. Professors of statistics.D. Young children.20. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?A. A statement illustrated by an analogy(类比).B. A hypothesis supported by documentation (引用文献).C. A comparison of two contrasting theories.D. A critical analysis of a common assumption.Part II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences. Each sentence is fallowed by four choices.

Then mark youranswer on the answer sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 ～5 are based on the following passage.Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner,though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls.Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing&suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also plays a role in the process during which young Koreans meet.In Korea, when marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacredthing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul.The business of continuing the family lineagec(血统) and keeping the bloodlinespure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters.Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, fromwhich her parents can tell if she is interested.For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay.~Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction beingmade by friends.But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean manor woman in the country who has not gone through this process-sometimes six or seven times.1.

From the signal the boy's parents know whether their son is interested in the girl or not.C. At present young Koreans no longer need matchmaking to keep them find partners.D. Only a girl and a boy will appear in the first meeting.—5. The passage is mainly about _ .A. the practice of matchmaking in KoreaB. the importance of a business contractC. the work of a business matchmakersD. the first meeting between men and womenPassage TwoQuestions 6～10 are based on the following passage.|In the university Jim was a made good grades with little effort,and his classmates thought of him “most likely to succeed”. After graduation, he joi ned a large company and at first did well. However, he switched to several smallercompanies where the same pattern developed time and again:well-liked, regarded as a fast-tracker. People wonder why he isn't doing better.Then there was Tom who was always regarded as"average. " However, he set hisgoals high, and then found a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollarcompany.Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job like "steady and dependable"and "practical and organized"are more important."You don't need talent to succeed," insist some experts. "All you need is a big pot of glue(胶水). You put some on your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you've done the best you can do. "Average achievers stay glued to their chairs and postpone pleasure so they can receive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, on the other hand, expect too much too soon.

A proper title for the passage can beA. The Magic of Glue#B. The Way to SuccessC. Why Talented People often Succeed QuicklyD. How Average Achievers Do Better than OthersPassage ThreeQuestions 11～15 are based on the following passage.From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading,our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in hand we could never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books could never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. Whenhuman friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement.：One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart's desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross the scorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture,the marvels of engineering, are all open to the wonder and enjoyment of those who read.11. The main idea of the first paragraph is .A. pleasure can only be derived from reading good booksB. a good book may distract our attentionC. people can read good books in different waysD. enjoyment and satisfaction can be derived from reading good books12. The main reason that people like their acquaintances in books is .A. they are like human friends exactly>B. they never bore us in comparisonC. they never hurt our feelingsD. they give human beings friendship, sympathy and encouragement13. We forget our surroundings and even our identity because .A. the reading environment is very goodB. the book is and attractiveC. we are alone and no one interrupts usD. we are asked to return the book the second day{14. Which of the following is NOT trueA. All of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books.B. We can travel by book free of charge to our heart's content.C. We should rely on reading to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life.D. Valuable experiences can be obtained from reading good books.15. "The whole world is ours for the asking" implies that .world is more accessible in books than in realityworld is easy to travel around as long as we walk】world belongs to us whenever we asktrips can be made by everyonePassage FourQuestions 16～20 are based on the following passage.Increasingly over the past 10 years, People especially young people have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food the they eat,particularly p'rocessed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, include vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a naturalprocess compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount-but not the quality-of foods grown in commercial farming areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: There are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.?It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables,certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed on the eating of whole meal bread and more comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed of the eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on "healthy eating".16. People have become more interested in natural foods because .A. they like changing their diet from time to timeB. they want to eat food that is more deliciousC. much of the food they eat is no longer considered to be healthyD. they want to be fashionable17. Soil that is rich in organic matter .A. has nothing nutritious added to it;B. is essential for producing fruit and vegetablesC. contains unused vegetable matterD. has had chemicals and fertilizers added to it18. According to the author, the use of chemicals and fertilizers .A. will not necessarily increase the production of foodsB. is a good way to improve the quality of foodsC. promotes the foods both in quality and in quantityD. is no good for health^19.

专转本英语测试题（二）及答案江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语测试题(二)Part I Reading Comprehension（共 20 小题，每小题 2 分，共40 分）Passage OneA student is learning to speak British English. He wants to know: Can I speak with American Can they understand me Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British English and American English How important are these differences？Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a fewdifferences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "in hospital" and "Have you a pen" Americans say "in the hospital" and "Do you have a pen" Pronunciation is sometimes different.Americans usually sound the 'r's in words like "bird" and "hurt". Speakers of British English do not sound the 'r's in these words. There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example,"colour" and "honour" are British English. “Color” and "honor" are American English. These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary are not important, however, for the most part, British and American English are the same language.1. According to this passage, a student who is learning to speak American English might be afraidthat _____.A. British people can't understand himB. American people can't understand himC. the grammar is too hard for himD. the spelling is too hard for him2. American English and British English are different in _____.A. spellingB. pronunciationC. grammarD. all of the above3. What is not mentioned in the passage？A. Whether there are differences between British English and American English.B. Whether British and American English are one language or twoC. How the differences between British English and American English came aboutD. How important the differences are4. Most _____ say “Do you have a watch”.A. British peopleB.Americans C. childrenD. teachers5. According to the passage, British people and Americans have _____ difficulty in understandingeach other.A. littleB.much C.some D. greatPassage TwoHappiness is contagious, researchers reported on Thursday.People with the most social connections —spouses, friends, neighbors and relatives —were also the happiest, the data showed. “Each additional happy person makes you happier，” Christakis said.“Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an American p atch quilt.”Each person sits on a different colored patch. “Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you，” Christakis said.“It is not just happy people connecting with happy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.”And happiness is more contagious than unhappiness, they discovered.“If a social contact is happy, it incre ases the likelihood that you are happy by 15 percent，” Fowler said. “A friend of a friend, or the friend of a spouse or a sibling (兄弟姐妹), if they are happy, increases your chances by 10 percent，” he added.A happy third degree friend —the friend of a friend of a friend —increases a person’s chances of being happy by 6 percent.“But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you’ll be unhappy by 7 percent” Fowler said.The finding is interesting and it is useful, too, Fowler said.“Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality (死亡率), pain reduction, and improved cardiac (心脏的) function. So better understandingof how happiness spreads can help us learn how to promote a healthier society，” he sai d.The study also fits in with other data suggested in 1984 that having $ 5,000 extra increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2 percent.“A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000,” Christakis said.6. According to the research, your happiness ________.A. has nothing to do with your workmates or schoolmatesB. has something to do with anyone who has a close relationship with youC. depends on those who are in favour of you or are against youD. has little to do with what social connections you have7. The underlined word “contagious” in the first paragra ph means ________.A. infectiousB. beautifulC. effectiveD. prior8. It can be inferred that________.A. happiness spreads as fast and widely as unhappinessB. unhappiness spreads faster and more widely than happinessC. happiness spreads faster and more widely than unhappinessD. the spread of unhappiness has not been studied by researchers9. Which of the following will increase your chances of becoming happier mostA. Being in a party with a happy atmosphere.B. A happy experience of your brother or your parents.C. A happy trip to a foreign country of your friends.D. Happiness of your friend’s friend.10. What does Christakis mean by saying “A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000”A. A happy friend can help you bring in a wealth of $20,000.B. A happy friend is a wealth which is worth about $20,000.C. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 2%.D. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 8%.Passage ThreeMost people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future-for example, getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, dogood things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.11. The best title of this passage is ________.A. The Secrets of HappinessB. Money Makes You HappyC. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be HappyD. Good Friends Make You Happy12. The second paragraph tells us that ________.A. the more friends you have, the happier you'll beB. we shouldn't think about our futureC. happiness is to enjoy the simple things in lifeD. some people fail to live a happy life13. The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four14. The writer thinks that ________.A. everyone knows how to live a happier lifeB. it's wrong to spend time on workC. hobbies take up too much timeD. doing good things for someone can make you happier15. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passageA. Reading a good book.B. Traveling to a foreign country.C. Playing a sport.D. Spending time with close friends.Passage FourSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue toundertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching childrento read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainlynot endless hours spent in activitiesabout reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stoptrying to do the impossible."Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function.The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible forchildren to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also apublic activity: It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that processis not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teachingthat will aid the child in the quest (探索) for knowledge Smith has one principal rule for allteaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful,enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher andlearner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both iseliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where childrenare given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.16. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that _______.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading17. The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most efficient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable18. The word "scrutiny" in most probably means " ________ ".A. inquiryB. observationC.control D. suspicion19. According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when _______.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children's experience20. The main idea of the passage is that ______.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping studentslearn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely aspossibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated than generally believedPart II Vocabulary and Structure（共 40 小题，每小题 1 分，共 40 分）21.

2024五年制师范类专转本英语模拟试卷English:1. What are the advantages and disadvantages of using technology in the classroom?The use of technology in the classroom has both advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, technology can enhance the learning process by providing students with access to more diverse and up-to-date information. It can also make the learning experience more engaging and interactive, as students can use multimedia tools to explore concepts in depth and collaborate with their peers. Additionally, technology can help improve the efficiency of teachers by enabling them to manage and assess student performance more easily.On the other hand, technology can be a distraction for students, leading to a decrease in their attention span and overall performance. Moreover, technology can promote a passive learning environment where students rely on the internet and other resources rather thanactively participating in the learning process. Additionally, not all students have equal access to technology, which can lead to further disparities in learning outcomes between students from different socioeconomic backgrounds.In conclusion, while technology can provide many benefits in the classroom, it is essential to balance its use with traditional teaching methods and ensure that all students have equal access to these resources.中文翻译:在课堂上利用技术有其优势和缺点。

Sometimes you'll hear people say that you can't expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you've got to love yourself first and this can be tricky. Sure we all know that we're the apple of our parents'eye, and that our grandmas think we are great talents and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics, but sometimes it's a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you built a positive self-image and learnt to love yourself.The self-image is your own mind's picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be, and thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don't allow doubts to occur in it.It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can't move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you are silly because you aren't good at math, find a tutor. If you think you are weak because you can't run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you are dull because you don't wear the latest trend, buy a few new clothes.The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective and to actively convince yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting a positive self-image. When you can pat yourself on the back, you'll know you're well on your wayYou need to build a positive self-image when you（）A.dare to challenge yourselfB.feel it hard to change yourselfC.are unconfident about yourselfD.have a high opinion of yourself46.You’re a lucky dog probably conveys the meaning that ________（）A.you’re a friendly personB.you’re envious of othersC.you do not deserve the luckD.you should thank others for your luck47.What is the main idea of the last paragraph（）A.It shows the danger of counterfeit drugsB.Special tracking codes for drug packages are used to identify counterfeitsC.Some measures are being taken to fight counterfeit drugsD.It reveals the reasons why counterfeit drugs are widespread48.The writer of this text wants to give the impression that the Protect Alarm system is（）A.elementaryB.expensiveC.experimentalD.economical49.Passage 4From now on, never spend your precious time thinking of reasons for your failures and shortcomings. Instead, realize that the seeds of success were planted within you when you were born. Only you have the power to make those seeds grow.The seeds, and the power to grow them, are contained in the most awesome machine ever created: the human mind. Success is a choice and not a chance. You were born a winner. You were born rich. You can be a success as long as you make the right choice.You cannot be successful without first developing your self-esteem. Your level of self-esteem is always based on the degree of control that you are able to exercise over yourself, and thus over your life. People with low self-esteem are people who do not believe that they have any power, or responsibility for their lives. They are the perennial（长期存在的）victims and martyrs. They are leaves tossed（摇摆）by the winds of chance and blown about with anysudden change in the weather.You can exercise control over your life only to the degree that you believe that you are responsible for everything that happens in your life. Failures think that everything happens by accident and by chance. Successful people realize that they are responsible.Everything happens as a result of something. If we can identify the cause, we can control the effect. We are responsible for what we choose to think and believe. One generally rises to the level that one expects. We are responsible for setting our expectations. Our success is dependent upon our level of confidence.If you associate with positive-thinking people, you are definitely going to achieve success. On the contrary, the opposite happens. We are responsible for finding, planting, and nurturing the seeds that contain future victory, born from setbacks.In short, in all areas of your life, whether they are financial, physical, emotional, or spiritual, you are responsible. Once you recognize this, accept it, and firmly believe it, you are on the road to successPeople with low self-esteem are compared to leaves because they _______（）A.are ready to change their mindsB.are easily affected by windy weatherC.don't have the power to face their fateD.can't exercise control over themselves50.得分评卷人Part ⅡReading Comprehension （共40分）Direction: After reading each passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements.

Now they’re starting to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds use the sun to guide them during daylight hours. How do birds fly at night? Tests with artificial stars have proved that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. But it had an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.But the stars are apparently their main means of navigation. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as river courses, mountain ranges, coast lines. But when it’s too dark to see these things, the doves circle helplessly, unable to find their wayThe reasons why birds don’t get lost on their long flights_____（）A.have been known to scientists for yearsB.have only recently been discoveredC.are known by everyoneD.will probably remain a mystery51.In a survey conducted by research firm Harris Interactive, 71% of Americans said that spending extra money on travel during the holiday season is worthwhile—so long as it affords them time with family and friends. But just because traveling may be the right thing to do, that doesn’t mean it has to be the expensive thing to do. Traveling involves many hidden costs that, once you’re aware of them, are easy to spot—and even easier to eliminate.To start, consider transportation fees. For example, if you’re driving, fill up the gas tank before traveling on the highway, where it’s much costlier, says Clarky Davis, a personal finance expert. and make sure your car is in good condition by checking your heating vents, keeping up with routine maintenance and ensuring your tires are properly inflated, all of which help the car achieve favorable fuel economy. Furthermore, not only does a tow car （救援车）cause inconvenience; it also means extra costs.For those opting to fly, first, be aware of how much it costs to check a bag. Most airlines are charging for every checked bag by weight, but prices vary from carrier to carrier. If you can manage to pack everything into a carry on, you’ll save at least ＄15. Brooke Ferencsik, a travel expert, suggests considering secondary airports when booking your flight. These airports often are less crowded and frequently offer cheaper tickets.and when it comes to your actual destination, don’t assume that hotels are going to cut back on fees simply because they’re desperate to draw customers. They won’t be adding or increasing fees, but they won’t be decreasing them either, says Ferencsik. The best defense against extra fees is to read about the hotel’s rates online, before you make a reservation. Be aware of surcharges for everything from housekeeping to groundskeeping to use of the in room safe, says Ferencsik. Some hotels even install a sensor （传感器）within the mini bar, charging guests for simply touching the items, let alone eating or drinking them.From airlines to hotels to rental cars, they’ve all got hidden fees you need to be aware of, says Ferencsik. Do your homework and ask questionsIt is found that 71% of Americans regard it as worthwhile to_____（）A.spend money on souvenirs while traveling with family and friendsB.accept hidden costs while traveling with family and friendsC.travel with family and friends during the holiday seasonD.travel with family and friends so as to please them52.What is the author’s attitude towards job interviews（）A.Most objectiveB.Too subjectiveC.SuspiciousD.Credulous53.The people in Hawaii are the most beautiful thing because __________（）A.they had a peaceful historyB.they can sleep in the middle of the roadC.there are 64 different races on the islandsD.they care more for people than anything else六、作文题(1题)54.Directions:For this part, you are required to write A Letter of Recommendation for your student Li Weihua.

Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneOn June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could now read the whole “map” of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named “genes” in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one “word”means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people。

精选全文完整版（可编辑修改）江苏省2022年五年一贯制高职“专转本”考试英语统考试卷Part I Reading Comprehension（本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分）Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage OneWhen John and Victoria Falls arrived in New York City for one-year stay, they did not bring very many things with them. They had planned either to live in a furnished apartment or to buy used furniture. But they soon learned about a new system that more and more people are using. The renting of home furnishings (bed, tables, dishes, and so on) has become one of America's fastest growing businesses.What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couples—people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes . Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don't like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think.1.Which of the following has become one of America's fastest growing businesses?A. Selling home furnishings.B. Renting furnished apartments.C. Selling used furniture.D. Renting home furnishings.2. Why do some people prefer to rent furniture?A.

Young people liked renting home furniture in that ________?A. they like second-hand furniture.B. they dislike new furniture.C. they want to buy something more important with their money.D. they don't have much money and don't want to buy the cheap furniture.4.

Only those who don't have enough money like to rent furniture.D. The furniture people rent is usually not as good as they have expected.5. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Rent or Buy?B. A New Way of Getting Home Furnishings.C. Furnished Apartments.D. A New Idea.Passage TwoYou don't need millions to be happy. In fact, at The Happiness Institute in Australia, a couple of hundred dollars may be enough. The institute opened its doors last year, and, since then, men and women of all ages have been paying $140 for lessons on how to feel happy. “You can actually increase your happiness levels. That's what we teach," said Timothy Sharp, founder of the institute. Experts say that only about 15 percent of happiness comes from income, assets and other financial factors. As much as 85 percent comes from things such as attitude, life control and relationships. Most of us have more money than our parents and grandparents, but happiness levels haven't changed to reflect that. Studies show that once the basic needs of shelter and food aremet, additional wealth adds very little to happiness. Part of the reason we are richer but not happier is because we compare ourselves to people better off materially. “The argument is that if you want to be happy there's a very simple thing you can do: Compare yourself to people who are less well off than you.” said Sharp. The Happiness Institute aims to show you how to overcome these unhappiness factors by focusing on “more than just your bank account.” “If Icompare myself to Bill Gates then I'm always going to be down,” said Sharp. A better thing to compare with, he said, might be Kerry Packer, Australia's richest person who has had a kidney transplant and heart surgery in recent years.6. The main purpose of the Happiness Institute is to ________ (Para.1).A. teach you how to increase your happiness levels.B. teach you how to be better-off financially.C. help you find the right partner of your life.D. help you understand the importance of wealth to happiness.7. Most of the happiness comes from ________.A. incomeB. assetsC. attitudeD.food8. Which of the following is true?A. Just as we are richer than our parents and grandparents, so we are happier.B. Happiness levels have been increasing since the days of our parents and grandparents.C. The key to happiness is to get as rich as possible.D. Additional wealth adds little to happiness if the basic needs for shelter and food are met.9. How can you increase your happiness levels?A. Always focus on enlarging your bank account.B. Compare yourself to people who are less well off than you are.C. Try to earn more money than others.D. Compare yourself to Bill Gates.10. What is this passage mainly about?A. Ways to maintain a happy marriage.B. Ways to take care of your assets.C. Increasing your happiness levels by earning more money.D. How non-financial factors add to your happiness.Passage ThreeIn the United States, when one becomes rich, he wants people to know it. And even if he does not become very rich, he wants people to think that he is. That is what “keeping up with the Joneses” is about. It is the story of someone who tried to look as rich as his neighbors.The expression was first used in 1913 by a young American called Arthur Momand. He told this story about himself . He began earning $125 a week at the age of 23. That was a lot of money in those days. He got marriedand moved with his wife to a very rich neighborhood outside New York City. When he saw that rich people rode horses. Momand went riding horses every day. When he saw that rich people had servants. Momand and his wife also hired a servant and gave big parties for their new neighbors.It was like a race, but one could never finish his race because one was always trying to keep up. The race ended for Momand and his wife when they could no longer pay for their new way of life. They moved back to an apartment in New York City.Momand looked around him and noticed that many people do things just to keep up with rich lifestyle of their neighbors. He saw the funny side of it and started to write a series of short stories. He called it “Keeping up with the Joneses” because “Jones” is a very common name in the United States. “Keeping up with the Joneses” came to mean keeping up with rich lifestyle of the people around you. His series were very popular at that time.People never seem to get tired of keeping up with the Joneses. And there are “Joneses” in every city of the world. But one must get tired of trying to keep up with the Joneses because no matter what one does, Mr. Jones always seems to be ahead.11.

第I卷Part I Reading Comprehension （共20小题，每小题2分，共40分）Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Put an ice cube from your fridge into a glass of water. You have a piece of string(线) 10 centimeters long. The problem is to take out that piece of ice with the help of the string. But you must not touch the ice with your fingers.(82) You may ask your friends to try to do that when you are having dinner together. There is a saltcellar on the table. You must use salt when you carry out this experiment.First you put the string across the piece of ice. Then put some salt on the ice. Salt makes ice melt(融化). The ice round the string will begin to melt. But when it melts, it will lose heat. The cold ice cube will make the salt water freeze again. After a minute or two you may raise the piece of string and with it you will raise your piece of ice!This experiment can be very useful to you. If, for example, there is ice near the door of your house, you must use very much salt to melt all the ice. If you don’t put enough salt, the water will freeze again.1. We must use _______ when we carry out this experiment.A. fridgeB. some foodC. a tableD. some salt2. How long will it take to carry out this experiment?A. More than three minutes.B. Five minutes or so.C. Only one minute or two.D. About ten minutes.3. What is the task of this experiment?A. Put the ice cube into the glass of water with the help of the string.B. Take out the ice cube in the glass of water with the help of the string.C. Take out the ice cube in the glass of water with your fingers.D. Put some salt on the ice cube and then put the string across it.4. How many things at least are used in this experiment?A. Three.B. Four.C. Six.D. Seven.5. We can learn something about _______ from the passage.A. PhysicsB. BiologyC. ChemistryD. MathsPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be recalled at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. (82) In contrast, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over.The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied. Henning studied how students who are leaning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and native-speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered, each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally, the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower efficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.6. Henning made the experiment in order to study______.A. how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB. how students learn English vocabularyC. how to develop students’ ability in EnglishD. how long information in short-term memory is kept7. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.8. From Hennin g’s result we can se e that______.A. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB. advanced students remember words by their meaningC. it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning9. The word “subjects” in the passage means______.A. memoryB. the theme of listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD. the students experimented on10. The passage centers on __________.A. memoryB. two kinds of memoryC. short-term memoryD. an experiment on studentsPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Did you know that the empty plastic soft drink bottles you throw away every day can be turned into carpet or automobile parts, that used glass bottles and aluminum (铝) cans can be turned into new ones, and that yesterday’s newspaper can be turned into to morrow’s?It all happens because of recycling. The simple waste we throw away is a “natural resource only 10% of its ru bbish, burns 10% and deposits (存放) 80% in waste disposal (处理) grounds. As a result, it has to cope with a serious solid waste problem. Every year, Americans throw away about 160 million tons of rubbish. Of that total, plastics make up less than 8%, paper about 36%, and glass and metal about 20%, all by weight. Plastic are naturally lighter, but still, when pressed together, account for only about 20% by volume.As a result, in the past 10 years the Unites States’ waste disposal grounds have decreased from about 18,500 to 6,000. In five years 2,000 more will close.(83) In the process of finding solution, some people have proposed to stop using plastics. Unfortunately, stop usingplastics would do much harm and no good. We would lose all of the safety, health and convenience features of plastics. Besides, packaging would still be needed. A 1987 study shows what would happen if plastics were not used, the energy needed to produce other packaging, its cost, and the volume of waste collected would all rise greatly. Some Americans believe part of the answer t o American’s waste problem lies in recycling everything fro m glass to metals to paper to plastics.Today, recycling is on the rise. There are now more than 1,000 waste recycling programs in the U.S. Many are beginning to recycling plastics. Right now, almost 200 companies are recycling millions of used plastic containers into toys, traffic signs, waste baskets, floor materials, and park benches. Plastics are among the easiest materials to recycle. More than 150 million pounds or 20% of all plastic soft drink bottles were recycled in 1987.11. What can’t the plastic soft drink bottles be turned into?A) Newspapers. B) Automobile parts. C) Toys D) traffic signs.12. On average, waste plastics are ________ other wastes.A) as heavy in density as B) heavier in density thanC) lighter in density than D) the same by weight as13. The U.S. reused ________ of all its plastic soft drink bottles in 1987.A) 8% B) 10% C) 20% D) 80%14. In five years, the U.S. will have only ________ waste disposal grounds.A) 2,000 B) 6,000 C) 4,000 D) 18,50015. The author of this passage ________ the proposal of stopping using plastics.A) says nothing about B) is sympathetic withC) agrees to D) disagrees toPassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:(84) “Humans should not try to avoid stress any more than they would shun food, love or exercise.” said Dr. Hans Selye, the first physician to document the effects of stress on the body. While here’s on question that continuous stress is harmful, several studie s suggest that challenging situations in which you’re able to rise to the occasion can be good for you. In a 2001 study of 158 hospital nurses, those who faced considerable work demands but coped with the challenge were more likely to say they were in good health than those who felt they couldn’t get the job done.(84) Stress that you can manage may also boost immune (免疫的) function. In a study at the Academic Center for Dentistry in Amsterdam, researchers put volunteers through two stressful experiences. In the first, a timed task that required memorizing a list followed by a short test, subjects believed they had control over the outcome. In the second, they weren’t in control: They had to sit through a gory (血淋淋的) video on surgical (外科手术的) procedures. Those who did well on the memory test had an increase in levels of immunoglo bulin A, an antibody that’s the body’s first line of defense against germs. The video-watchers experienced a downturn in the antibody.Stress prompts the body to produce certain stress hormones (荷尔蒙). In short bursts these hormones have a positive effect, including improved memory function. “They can help nerve cells handle information and put it into storage,” says Dr. Bruce McEwen of Rockefeller University in New York. But in the long run these hormones can have a harmful effect on the body and brain.“Sustained stress is not good for you,”says Richard Morimoto, a researcher at Northwestern University in Illinois studying the effects of stress on longevity (长寿), “It’s the occasional burst of stress or brief exposure to stress that could be protective.”16. The passage is mainly about______A) the benefits of manageable stressB) how to avoid stressful situationsC) how to cope with stress effectivelyD) the effects of stress hormones on memory17. The word “shun” (Line 1, Para.1) most probably means________.A) cut down on B) stay away fromC) run out of D) put up with18. We can conclude from the study of the 158 nurses in 2001 that_______A) people under stress tend to have a poor memoryB) people who can’t get their job done experience more stressC) doing challenging work may be good for one’s healthD) stress will weaken the bo dy’s defense against germs19. In the experiment described in Paragraph 3, the video-watchers experienced a downturn in the antibody because______.A) the video was not enjoyable at allB) the outcome was beyond their controlC) they knew little about surgical proceduresD) they felt no pressure while watching the video20. Dr. Bruce McEwen of Rockefeller University believes that______.A) a person’s memory is determined by the level of hormones in his bodyB) stress hormones have lasting positive effects on the brainC) short bursts of stress hormones enhance memory functionD) a person’s memory improves with continued experience of stress Part II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

江苏五年一贯制专转本英语考试模拟卷(三)(附答案)
江苏五年一贯制专转本英语考试模拟卷（三）（考试时间：90分钟）I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分)Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage oneIn the world, soccer of football is the most popular sport. This is because many countries have wonderful teams for the World Cup. The World Cup is held every four years.To remember 2002 FIFA World Cup, children from different countries and more than 60 children from Japanese schools came together and spent three weekends drawing a big picture called “Dream(梦幻) World Cups” in Japan. The children drew animals, flowers and people playing soccer under a blue bright sky. They wished each football team good luck by drawing the flags(旗帜) of all the countries that will take part in the World Cup in Japan and South Korea. The picture was put up in a park near a playground in Yokohama. Some football teams will have games there.Are you a football fan (迷)? The World Cup makes more and more people interested in football Teenagers (青少年) like playing and watching football. Many of them love some football stars so much that they get the pictures of their favourite players on the walls of their rooms. That is the way to show their love for the World Cup as children in Japan.1. If a country wants to take part in the World Cup, she must have .A.

Many teenagers owe the pictures of some football stars because .A. they are interested in footballB. they are football fansC. they think their favourite players are greatD. all of A, B and CPassage TwoFor years and years people have been saying that the rail ways are dead. ―We can do without railways‖, people say as if motorcars and planes have made the railways unnecessary. We all keep hearing that trains are slow, that they lose money, that they’re dying. But this is far from the truth. In these days of expensive oil, the railways have become highly competitive with motorcars and planes. If you want to carry people or goods from place to place. They are cheaper than planes. And they have much in common with planes. A plane goes in a straight line and so does a railway. What is more, it takes you from the heart of a city into the heart of another. It doesn’t leave you as a plane does, miles and miles from the city center. It doesn’t hold you up as a car does, in endless traffic jams. And a single train can carry goods which no plane or motorcar could ever do.Far from being dead, the railways are very much alive, Modern railway lines give you a smooth, untroubled journey. Where else can you eat well, sleep in comfort, feel safe and enjoy the scene while you are traveling at speed at the same time? And we are only at the beginning. For we have just entered the age of superfast trains(超速列车), trains traveling at 150 miles an hour and more. Soon we will be wondering why we spent so much on motorways we can‘t use because we have not enough money to buy the oil and planes we can’t fly in for the same reason.6. Some people think the railways are unnecessary for many reasons except that .A. planes and motorcars have taken the place of trainsB. oil is expensive todayC. trains are slowD. railways lose money7. The writer’s idea seems to be that .A. we can do without railwaysB. trains have much in common with motorcars and planesC. motorcars and planes are not as good as trainsD. trains are as good as motorcars and planes8. According to the writer, which of the following is not true?A. It is cheaper to travel by train than by plane.B. The railway station is usually at the center of a city.C. When you get off the plane you’ll find yourself right in he city center.D. No motorcar or plane can carry as many goods as a train does.9. The writer thinks that the railways, far from being dad, are very much alive because .A. we can have a smooth and untroubled journeyB. we’ll not have enough money to fly in planesC. we can now travel in super-fast trainsD. all of the above10. The best title for this passage may be .A. Not the End , but the BeginningB. Which is the Best: Train, Motorcar or PlaneC. Trains Are More Competitive than Motorcars or PlanesD. Oh, Super-fast TrainsPassage ThreeThere has been, in history, a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived to tell the tale. The man's name is James Bartley.The records to prove his unusual experience are in the British Admiralty.Bartley was making his first trip on the whaling ship Star of the East. Suddenly the lookout found a huge whale. The whalers knew it was a huge whale by the size of the spray it blew into the air. They lowered their small boats. James Bartley was in the first longboat . The men rowed until they were close to the whale. A harpoon(鱼叉) was thrown and it found its mark. It sank into the whale' s flesh. The maddened beast jumped out of the water and broke the boat into pieces. When the survivors were picked up, James Bartley was missing.Shortly before sunset, the whale was finally caught. The sailors tied the whale's carcass to theside of the ship.Because of the hot weather it was important that they cut up the whale right away. Otherwise, the meat would begin to rot and the oil would begin to spoil. When they got to the stomach, they felt something moving about wildly. They thought it would be a big fish still alive inside. But when they opened the stomach they found James Bartley. After this trip, Bartley settled in Gloucester, England, and never returned to sea.11. This passage is mainly about .A. how to hunt whales for their oil and meat.B. the hard and dangerous lives that whalers had to live.C. the duties of each man on a whaling ship.D. a man who was swallowed by a whale and lived.12. The sailors knew that something was in the whale's stomach because .A. they could feel it moving about wildly.B. the whale seemed very heavy .C. the whale was bulging (鼓起来) at one spot.D. the captain heard Bartley crying for help.13. James Bartley never went to sea again because .A. he wanted different kinds of adventuresB. of fright and shock.C. he was hurt by the whale.D. he often got seasick.14.The author, in telling James Bartley's story, gives us information by .A. making us laughB. talking about whaling in general.C. comparing whaling to other fishing.D. dramatically telling what happened.15.The word carcass refers to the .A. whale's tail.B. whale's stomach.C. dead body of the whale.D. whale's side.II.

(完整)五年制高职专转本英语考试模拟卷1
五年制高职专转本英语考试模拟卷（考试时间：90分钟）I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分)Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question. Passage OneIn every school there is “top” crowd that sets the pace, while the others follow their lead. For example, if the crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters, then very soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters.There is nothing wrong with that, except the fact that for some people bright red sweater is really unsuitable.The situation can even become dangerous, if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink and to drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then the people who follow the lead are endangering their lives. They are like the sheep being led to the slaughter(屠杀).Now it’s possible that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life. In fact you probably did something you knew to be wrong one time or another. You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, but don’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No”.Develop your own standards(标准)and your own judgment. If you know the crowd is planning something you disagree to, you’d better take the courage to bow out in a polite way. You’ll have the satisfaction of standing on your own two feet.1. The main idea of the passage is that _____________.A. in every school there is a “top” crowd that sets the paceB. it’s a mistake to follow the “top” crowd blindlyC. people who follow the “top” crowd are endangering their livesD. you probably did something wrong more than once in your life2.

Rules for TeensPassage Two"Can I see my baby?" the happy new mother asked. When the baby was lying in her arms and she moved the cloth to look upon his tiny face, she gasped(吃力地喘着气). The doctor turned quickly and looked out of the hospital window. The baby had been born without ears. Luckily, time proved that the baby's hearing was perfect. Though the misfortune(不幸)happened to him, he grew into a handsome boy. Yet he felt ashamed when he communicated with others.“You should get in touch with other young people,” his mother told him, with a kindness in her heart. The boy’s father talked with the family doctor about his ears. “Could nothing be done?” the father asked. “I believe I could give him a pair of outer ears, if they could be got,” the doctor replied.Two years went by. One day, his father said to the son, “You are going to the hospital, Son. Mother and I have someone who will donate the ears you need, but it’s a secret.”The operation is a big success. Later he married and entered the diplomatic(外交的)service. One day, he asked his father, “Who gave the ears? Who gave me so much? I could never do enough for him or her.”“You could, my son,” said the father, “but the agreement was that you are not to know…not yet.”The years kept their secret, but one of the darkest days did come. He stood with his father over his mother’s casket(棺材). Slowly, the father stretched forth(伸出) a hand and raised the thick, reddish brown hair to reveal the mother had no outer ears."Mother said she was glad she never let her hair be cut," his father whispered gently, "and nobody ever thought mother less beautiful, did they?"6. Why did Mother gasp when she saw her newborn baby?A. Because her son had a tiny face.B. Because she saw her son crying.C. Because her son was in her arms.D. Because her son was born imperfect.7.

The main purpose of the passage is to tell readers that ________.A. The secret was kept until the mother died.B. Real love lies in what is done but not known.C. The operation on the boy was a great success.D. The boy entered the diplomatic service when he grew up.Passage ThreeTo us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. Its first use was as a shade against the sun!Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royalty or by those in high office.In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered a symbol of power and authority. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France, and later on in England.By the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout most of Europe. Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. It wasn’t until the twentieth century tha t women’s umbrellas began to be made, in a whole variety of colors.11. According to this passage, the umbrella was probably first invented ________.A. in ancient ChinaB. in ancient EgyptC. in ancient GreeceD. in ancient Rome12. Which of the following statements is NOT true about the umbrella?A. No one exactly knows who the inventor of the umbrella was.B. The umbrella was first invented to be used as protection against the sun.C. The umbrella changed much in style in the eighteenth century.D. In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella.13. A strange feature of the umbrella’s use is that it was used as ________.A. protection against rainB. a shade against the sunC. a symbol of honor and powerD. women’s decoration14. In Europe, the umbrella was first used against the rain ________.A. during the Middle AgesB. by the eighteenth centuryC. in RomeD. in Greece15. This passage talks mainly about ________.A. when and how the umbrella was inventedB. why the umbrella was so popular in EuropeC. the development of the umbrellaD. the history and use of the umbrellaII.

江苏五年一贯制专转本英语考试模拟卷（二）（考试时间：90分钟）I. Reading Comprehension (本题共15小题，每题2分，共30分)Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Passage oneTom walked into a shop. It bad a sign outside : "Second-hand (旧的) clothes bought and sold . "He was carrying an old pair of trousers and asked the owner of the shop, "How much will you give me for these?" The man looked at them and then said: "Two dollars.""What !" said Tom. "I had guessed they were worth at least five dollars.""No," said the man, "they aren't worth a cent more than two dollars.""Well," said Tom, taking two dollars out of his pocket. "Here's your money. These trousers were hanging outside your shop. The list price (标价)of them was six dollars and a half. But I thought that was too much money, so I wanted to find out how much they were really worth."Then he walked out of the shop with the pair of trousers and disappeared before the shop owner could think of anything to say.1. At first the owner of the shop thought that Tom __________.A. wanted to steal the trousersB. wanted to sell the trousersC. wanted to fool himD. wanted to buy the trousers2. The owner of the shop for the old trousers.A. would give Tom two dollarsB. would pay three dollarsC. would pay five dollarsD. would give Tom six dollars and a half3. The shop owner insisted that the trousers were worth only two dollars because .A. he wanted to sell them cheaplyB. he wanted to buy them cheaplyC. he didn't like the trousersD. they were old and dirty4. In fact, the trousers .A. were hanging inside the shopB. were stolen by Tom from the shopC. had been the shop owner'sD. had been Tom's5. From the story we know that _________ cheaper than the list price.A. the owner sold the trousers two dollarsB. Tom sold the trousers one dollar and a halfC. the owner bought the trousers three dollarsD. Tom bought the trousers four dollars and a halfPassage TwoAre you thinking of writing someone a letter? Call instead. It isn’t that expensive, especially when you call during the evening, night, or weekend hours. In fact, you can make a ten-minute call anywhere in the continental United States for just $2.60.For even greater saving, always dial direct, that is, without an operator’s help. Rates (资费) on direct calls are lower after five o’clock in the evening and lowest after eleven o‘clock at night. Collect, person-to-person, and pay phone calls require the services of an operator, and they cost more than direct calls.Need to call out of the country? Now calls to many overseas places may be dialed direct. Check your telephone direction for overseas area codes.Next time you have good news, or you just want to stay in touch, remember, a phone call means so much more than a letter. This has been a message from Southern Bell Telephone Company.6. According to this passage, when is a dial telephone call cheapest?A. During weekend hours.B. After 5 in the evening.C. During working hours.D. After 11 at night.7. To make a ten-minute call costs $2.60, if you are in New York and want to be connected with a person in .A. AlaskaB. Los AngelesC. HawaiiD. Mexico city8. What type of call requires less money?A. A direct dial call.B. A collect call.C. A person-to-person call.D. A call from a pay phone.9. What should one do in order to make an overseas call?A. Dial the operator.B. Call tell Southern Bell Telephone Company.C. Check the phone book for the overseas operator‘s number so that he can help you.D. Check the phone book for overseas area codes so that you can dial direct.10. This passage is .A. an articleB. a letterC. a talkD. a dialoguePassage ThreeThe sea is the common possession of all nations. It belongs equally to all. No one can take it entirely to themselves; nor is it ‘foreign’ to anyone.This was the decision of John Marshall, chief Justice of the United States from 1801 to 1835. It was made known as a basic rule of the sea that no one, and therefore everyone, owns the ocean. This means that outside territorial waters (the waters within three miles of a country’s coast), the law is whatever nations agree on in peacetime and whatever the strongest navy powers can enforce in wartime.After the United States bought Alaska, Americans began to seize Canadians who were hunting seals outside Alaskan territorial waters. The Americans said that the seals were American possession because they often came into the Alaskan shores owned by the United States. International judges disagreed with this reasoning. In some cases, however, the special rights of a nation that makes good use of an open-sea area are recognized.All of the sea’s rules are set up by international conferences and agreements.11. The idea that the sea‖ belongs equally to all‖ was put out by .A. an unwritten agreementB. a U.S. Supreme Court decisionC. an international conferenceD. a written agreement12. The basic rule of the sea means that .A. any powerful nation may control the seaB. any area of the sea belongs to the nation closest to itC. no one has whole rights to the open seaD. no nation has any sea rights13. International judges decided that .A. Canada had no sealing rights off AlaskaB. the Canadians could hunt the sealsC. the United States could own the sealsD. the Americans could not hunt the seals14. Nations may obtain special rights on open waters by .A. overrunning those watersB. guarding the watersC. using the waters regularlyD. spreading out their territorial waters15. The main idea of this passage is that .A. the rule of the sea was made known by John MarshallB. some nations are able to acquire special open-sea rights.C. every nation owns its territorial watersD. the laws of the sea should be set up by international agreementsII.
