But one day the doctor told him even thestumps were not going to last much longer. He would soon haveto use a wheelchair.Hank felt himself get cold all over. However, the doctor saidthere was a chance that he could be fitted with artificial legs (假肢). Finally a leg maker was found and the day came when Hank stood up before the mirror. For the first time he saw himself as hehas always wanted to be - a full five feet eight inches tall. By thistime he was already 26 years old.Hank had to learn to use his new legs. Again and again he marched the length of the room, and marched back again. Therewere times when he fell down on the floor, but he pulled himselfup and went back to the endless marching.

A),B),C)or D).You should make the correct choice and markthe corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecentre.Nowadays,cities are becoming more and more densely populated.Some pessimists are deeply worried about the serious problems posed by the huge populations.They believe that the public services are already overloaded and near the verge of collapse.Especially in some developing countries,the metropolis are overcrowded all the time.Thronged streets, stuffed buses and jammed subways continuously batter people's lives.Some optimists, however,see the current problems as merely part of an evolutionary process.They arguethat London and New York had similar problems but were able eventually to establish an orderly and safe environment for their citizens.It seems that people become the controversial factor here.Either they themselves as inhabitants cause inconvenience toeach other,or they participate together in city developing plans and contribute effortsto facilitate city life.Human elements are therefore the core for determining the futureof big cities.51.According to the passage,____________poses the most serious

they have;the real culture is the culture they actually have.In all societies there is a differencebetween the two.If an American citizen were asked to tell a visitor from a foreign land something about how Americans think and live,his description would probably be somewhat less than true.He might say,for example,that the United States is a democracy(民主),that all men are created equal,and that

It offers numerous physical, mental, and social benefits that contribute to an overall sense of well-being. In this essay, we will explore the importance of regular exercise and its positive impact on our lives.Firstly, regular exercise plays a vital role in improving our physical health. Engaging in physical activities such as running, swimming, or cycling helps to strengthen our muscles and bones. It also enhances cardiovascular fitness, leading to a reduced risk of heart diseases and other chronic conditions. Furthermore, exercise promotes weight management and helps to prevent obesity, a growing problem in modern society.In addition to physical health, exercise greatly contributes to our mental well-being. Engaging in exercise releases endorphins, often referred to as the "feel-good" hormones, which elevate our mood and reduce stress and anxiety. Regular exercise can also alleviate symptoms of depression and improve overall cognitive function. It provides an opportunity for self-reflection and relaxation, acting as a positive outlet for coping with life's challenges.Furthermore, exercise offers a platform for social interaction, which is crucial for our overall well-being. Participating in group activities, such as team sports or fitness classes, allows us to connect with others who share similar interests. These social interactions foster a sense of belonging and camaraderie, reducing feelings of loneliness and isolation. Moreover,exercise can serve as a bonding activity among friends, family members, or colleagues, leading to stronger relationships and increased social support.To conclude, regular exercise is essential for a healthy and fulfilling life. It not only improves physical health and fitness but also enhances mental well-being and fosters social connections. Incorporating exercise into our daily routines should be a priority for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level. So, let's make a commitment to prioritize our health and embrace regular exercise for a happier and healthier future.。

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

Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A., B., C., and D.. You should decide onthe best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions31to35are based on the following passage: Philanthropy is a way that people and organizations show concern for others or work to improve the world. Approximately 72 percent of Americans donate to charity (慈善机构), and 51 percent do volunteer work. About 2 millions not-for-profit organizations and charities in the United States today receive this help.There are three types of philanthropists: individuals, foundations, and private corporations. Individuals give money or volunteer their time to support causes that are important to them. Foundations are organizations started by very wealthy individuals. Their “business”is not to make a profit but to give money away to not-for-profits.Private corporations may also use a portion of their business profits to make donations, or they may give away their products or services free of charge. However, foundations and corporations are responsible for only 20 percent of charitable donations; 80 percent comes from individuals.What makes people and institutions give away their time and money? One reason is altruism, the unselfish desire to help other people and make the world a better place. Other reasons involve personal interest. Under US tax law, an individual or business does not have to pay income tax on money that is donated to charity. For extremely wealthy individuals and corporations, this can mean millions of dollars they do not have to pay in taxes to the government. In addition to tax benefits, donors often receive favorable publicity for making donations, and they have an opportunity to influence the world around them.31. What is the main idea of the first paragraph?A.Philanthropy has become an accepted American custom.B.Philanthropy has made the US a great influence in the world.C.More and more organizations rely on philanthropy nowadays.D.Religion plays an important role in the philanthropy in the US.32. Which of the following is NOT characteristic of philanthropists?A. To donate money.B. To do volunteer work.C. To pay income tax.D. To provide free services.33. What is the main source of donations in the United States?A. Foundations.B. Individuals.C. The government.D. Private corporations.34. How are foundations different from private corporations in the aspect of philanthropy?A. They don’t make a profit.B. They receive more publicity.C.They are set up by very rich individuals.D.They don’t donate money to individuals.35. What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Individuals tend to donate money to become famous.B.Foundations gain more power because of philanthropy.C.Some people donate money for practical purposes.D.The US tax law discourages people from donating money.Questions36to40are based on the following passage:A lot of people think that if they put off the decision of whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships, the problems they are having will magically somehow heal themselves or disappear.They won’t.If you do n’t invest some quality time now in taking a true, honest and truthful look at the state of your relationship, you could stay stuck in this place of indecision for a very long time. Many people waste so much precious time when they could be experiencing an incredible relationship filled with love, passion and joy, either in their current relationship or one that is more of what they want. We encourage you to take an honest look at your situation and feel how much pain you’ve been feeling about this relationship. If having a great relationship is important to you, you need to decide that you’re not willing to live without the love, passion, intimacy, and tenderness. You have to take the first step to create the kind of relationship and love you want in your life.We’re not suggesting that you should leave your current relationship or marriage and head out looking for the new love of your life. That’s your decision and one that should only be made after some careful insight and thinking. What we are telling you is that life is too short to go through it without having the love you want and the love that’s possible for all of us. If you are in a relationship that is causing you to wonder whether you should stay in it or leave—it’s important that you take some time now to make itclear so that you’ll be able to ask yourself openly and honestly whether you’ll be able to heal the challenges.36. To make a decision about whether they want to stay in or leave their relationships quicker,people should ________.A.leave the problems until they heal themselves or disappearB.head out looking for the new love of his /her lifeC.seek expert’s advice and not make a quick decisionD.have a clear understanding of the state of their relationships37. What does the word “incredible” (Para.2) probably mean in the passage?A. Marvelous.B.Impossible.C. Unusual.D. Unnecessary.38. According to the passage, if one person is not willing to live without love, passion, tenderness and so on, he must________.A.leave the current relationshipB.take an honest look at his situationC.spend time experiencing an incredible relationshipD.take the first step to create that kind of relationship39. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.If one starts to wonder about the current relationship,it is time to end it.B.Making the decision about one’s relationship needs careful insight.C.A relationship that brings you pain is not necessarily a bad one.D.Life is too short for people to find true love.40. The purpose of the passage is to ________.A.persuade people to find a better relationshipB.ask people to invest quality time in their relationshipsC.give people some advice on how to stay in or leave theirrelationshipsD. advise people how to have a relationship with love,passion and so onSection BDirections:In this section there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words. Be sure to write your answers on Answer Sheet (2).German careers or jobs fall into several categories. First, there are positions that require strong ability in German with a company in Germany,Austria or Switzerland. This category may also include a job requiring good German and/or bilingual (双语的) skills within a company doing business in the US, Canada, Mexico or elsewhere. Secondly, there are jobs that can be done in English in German Europe. Then there are German companies abroad.Most minor and many major positions are filled by recruiting German, Austrian or Swiss nationals. If you are already in German Europe, you may have a better chance of finding a job. In any case, it is best if your company can handle all the formalities involved when a foreign national takes a job in Germany. There are also relocation services that can help with this if you don’t have any ideas yourself.The German unemployment rate has remained at a fairly high level over the last decade. It is almost impossible for a non-German to get a job in Germany unless she/he can prove that it can’t be done by a German national. In certain fields, such as computer science or information systems, “green card”foreign workers have been imported,but this practice is still uncommon.The reality of searching for and finding a suitable position in German Europe or with a German firm means two main things: knowledge and planning. T oo many times, job seekers have unrealistic expectations. Often they overestimate their language skills and underestimate the level of competition.Another danger is ignoring culture shock.That’s why we also offer links to culture-related sites.For getting most German jobs, it is your ability in a field—computers, teaching, advertising, etc.—rather than your German skills that will be the biggest factor in a successful search. But all other things being equal between you and another candidate, it is the person with the best language skills who usually gets the job.41.What is the requirement of the job within a company doing business in the US,Canada, Mexico or elsewhere included in the first category?42.What might the company do for the benefit of a foreign employee?43.What seems to be “hot” fields if you are to find a job in German?44.What is the reason for the author to offer links to culture-related sites?45.What is more important to get most German jobs according to the passage?Part III Vocabulary and Structure (25 marks)Section A (15 marks, 0.5 mark each)Directions:There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A., B., C. and D.. Choose the one answer that best completes the sentence.46.

大学英语期末考试题及参考答案大学英语期末考试题一、选词填空(共计30分，每小题2分)Passage 1I never used to go anywhere without the car. I regarded it as an essential part of myself. But when the price of gas doubled in this year, I decided not to use the car except when absolutely necessary. For example, I always used to take the car when I went to fetch the papers on Sunday mornings, although our newsagents is only 10 minutes walk away. Now I go on foot.I tell myself that Im not only saving the gas but keeping fit at the same time. Its all a question of habit really. Im sure you can get used to anything if you try and already feel that I rely on the car less than I used to. Besides, now that we live in the suburbs, I can walk down the road and catch a bus to the office or to any part of the town. We used to live in the country about 15 miles from town and then I would frequently drive to and fro twice in one day. That meant I would use 15 gallons of oil or more in a week. Now I only need half that amount. The trouble is that I am also getting used to the gas prices. They dont seem so high tome any more. Perhaps it is easier to get used to expensive gas than it is to doing without the ear.Questions 26--30 are based on Passage 1.26. When the price of gas doubled in this year, the author decidedA. to go everywhere without a carB. only to take the car to fetch the papersC. to use the car when he had toD. to go on foot everywhere27. In the sentence "Its all a question of habit really," the pronoun "It" refers toA. saving the gasB. keeping fitC. not only saving the gas but keeping fit at the same timeD. not relying too much on the car28. To go to the newsagents to get his newspaper, the authorA. used to walk for 10 minutesB. used to drive his carC. walked down the road to the officeD. walked for 10 minutes to keep fit29. We know from the passage that the authorA. is getting used to living in the country about 15 miles from townB. used to go to and come back from town twice a day by carC. usually buys 15 gallons of oil or more in a weekD. only spends 7.5 pounds on gas now30. The last sentence of the passage suggests thatA. the author still can not get used to doing without the carB. the author feels that the high price of gas is a great problemC. it is easy to use gas at high pricesD. the price of gas is not high any more点击下页还有更多大学英语期末考试题：词汇与结构阅读下面的小对话，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上写出所选的字母符号。
大学英语期末考试试题及答案
大学英语期末考试试题及答案第一部分：阅读理解阅读下列短文，然后根据短文内容从每小题的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
每篇短文后面有一个小题，共15题。
每题3分，共45分。
Passage 1Texting Addiction on the RiseTexting addiction is becoming more and more of a problem, according to researchers at the University of Maryland. A study conducted by the university showed that a significant percentage of college students exhibit signs of addiction to texting and that these students use their mobile phones excessively. Texting addiction is considered a behavioral addiction, similar to gambling or gaming addiction.The study, conducted over a period of one year, involved over 500 college students. These students were asked to complete a survey answering questions about their mobile phone usage. The results showed that those who exhibited signs of addiction to texting also had higher levels of stress and anxiety.According to the lead researcher, Emily Smith, the excessive use of mobile phones and texting can cause a host of problems. These problems include sleep disturbances, poor academic performance, and even depression. The researchers suggest that students and young people in particular should be educated about the potential dangers of excessive mobile phone use.Passage 2The Benefits of BilingualismLearning a second language has numerous benefits, both for children and adults. A study conducted by the University of Cambridge has shown that bilingual individuals have better executive function skills. These skills include problem solving, cognitive flexibility, and selective attention. Bilingualism can also delay the onset of age-related mental decline and help to maintain better brain health as individuals age.In addition to cognitive benefits, being bilingual has social advantages. Bilingual individuals are more likely to have a wider social network and be more open-minded towards other cultures. Bilingualism can also lead to better job opportunities and higher salaries.Furthermore, learning a second language can improve one's native language skills as well. Bilingual individuals often have a deeper understanding of grammar and vocabulary, and they are better at multitasking and decision making.Overall, the benefits of bilingualism are clear. Whether it is for cognitive development, social growth, or career advancement, learning a second language is a valuable skill that can enhance one's life in many ways.Passage 3The Importance of Sleep for StudentsSleep is essential for students to perform well academically. However, many students do not get enough sleep due to various reasons, such as heavy workload, extracurricular activities, and social media use.Research has shown that lack of sleep can have a negative impact on students' cognitive functioning, including memory, attention, and problem-solving skills. It can also lead to increased levels of stress, irritability, and mood swings. In addition, lack of sleep can weaken the immune system and make students more susceptible to illnesses.To improve sleep quality, students can follow several strategies. Firstly, it is important to establish a regular sleep schedule and stick to it, even on weekends. Secondly, students should create a sleep-friendly environment by keeping their bedroom dark, quiet, and comfortable. It is also recommended to limit the use of electronic devices before bedtime, as the blue light emitted by these devices can interfere with the sleep-wake cycle.In conclusion, getting enough sleep is crucial for students' academic performance and overall well-being. By prioritizing sleep and adopting good sleep habits, students can optimize their learning potential and maintain a healthy lifestyle.第二部分：词汇与语法从每小题的四个选项中选出最佳选项。
