单项选择题为了正确而迅速地解答选择题,首先对题意和备选项进行整体的对比考查,弄清题目的考查目标,从题干和备选项中获得解题的充分信息,其次选择适当的解题方法,下面归纳几种解题方法,供读者参考.直接法:直接从题目的已知条件出发,经过严密的推导、合理的运算,从而得到结果和判断的方法.其选择过程是先计算,然后将计算的结果与备选项对照,找到正确选项.当题目中给出已知条件,备选答案列出所需求的结果是,一般首选考虑直接法.验证法: 把可供选择的各备选项代人题目中的已知条件或将题目中的条件代人备选项进行验算,从而得到正确选择的方法.排除法: 又叫筛选法,通过找出已知条件和结论的矛盾,用特例或特殊值验证或举出反例等方法,排除错误选项,从而得到正确选项的方法.图像法: 通过画出直观的几何图形,帮助分析,便于作出正确的选择的方法. 每种方法都不是孤立的,有时同一试题可用多种方法求解,有时需用几种方法综合求解.二、计算题与证明题1. 极限求极限的方法1) 利用极限的四则运算法则 2) 利用极限存在准则3) 利用关于无穷小量的定理（如有界函数与无穷小量的乘积仍为无穷小量等） （这个知识点每年必考）4) 利用极限存在的充要条件()()0000f x f x -=+（这个知识点适用于三种情形：“分段函数、绝对值函数和指数函数） 5) 利用等价无穷小代换定理（要熟记八对等价无穷小） 6) 利用函数的连续性 7) 利用恒等变形8) 利用两个重要极限及一些常用的极限① 00sin tan lim 1,lim 1x x x xx x→→==② 1lim 1xx e x →∞⎛⎫+= ⎪⎝⎭或 ()10lim 1x x x e →+=③ 110110,lim 0,,n mn n n n m m x m m a m n b a x a x a m n b x b x b m n---→∞-⎧=⎪⎪+++⎪=>⎨+++⎪∞<⎪⎪⎩当当

利用导数定义凡已知函数可导或在某一点可导求此式极限时,一般考虑用导数的定义,如已知()f x 在0x 处可导,则此式的极限()()()()()0000000'lim lim .x x x f x x f x f x f x f x x x x ∆→→+∆--==∆- 问题的关键是将所求比式的极限转化为上述其中的一种形式,注意自变量的改变量x ∆的表达式多样性即可. （有时为,x ∆有时为,2x ∆或h 等） 例1.略例2.求=→x x x x sin ln 1lim 2020sin ln lim xx x x →（洛必达）x x x x x x x x 2sin .cos .sin lim 20⎥⎦⎤⎢⎣⎡-=→ （注意到1sin lim0=→x x x ，故非零因子xxsin 的极限可以提前拿到极限号外面去，这是个重要的简化技巧）30sin .cos lim 21x x x x x

=处左、右两侧所对应的函数表达式不同，按导数的定义，需分别求0'()f x -，0'()f x +.当0'()f x -=0'()f x +时，()f x 在0x x =可导，且0'()f x =0'()f x -=0'()f x +；当0'()f x -0'()f x +≠时，()f x 在0x x =不可导.情形二 设00(),(),g x x x f x A x x ≠⎧=⎨=⎩，讨论0x x =点的可导性.由于分界点在0x x =处左、右两侧所对应的函数表达式相同，按导数的定义，000000()()()()'()limlimx x x f x x f x f x f x f x x x x ∆→→+∆--==∆-. （2）若讨论分段函数在定义域内的可导性，由于非分界点处的可导性显然，只需用定义讨论其分界点处的可导性即可.（3）因为可导的必要条件是连续，所以在做这类题目时，可首先观察分界点处的连续性，若不连续则必不可导，若在该点连续，则按（1）中的方法讨论其可导性.（4）计算复合函数的导数，关键是弄清复合函数的构造，即该函数是由哪些基本初等函数或简单函数经过怎样的过程复合而成的，求导时要按复合次序由外向内一层一层求导，直至对自变量求导数为止.（5）对于抽象函数的求导，关键是记号的意义，如对[()]y f x ϕ=而言，([()])'f x ϕ表示y 对自变量x 的导数，而'[()]f x ϕ表示y 对中间变量()x ϕ的导数，故()[]()()[]()x x f x f y ϕϕϕ''='='.（6）对数求导法常用于对下面两类函数求导：①形如()[()]g x f x 的幂指函数；②由乘除、乘方、开方混合运算所构成的函数.（7）欲求由方程(,)0F x y =所确定的隐函数()y f x =的一阶导数，有下面三种方法：①要把方程中的x 看作自变量，而将y 视为x 的函数，方程中关于y 的函数便是x 的复合函数.用复合函数的求导法则，便可得到关于'y 的一次方程，从中解出'y 即为所求.②利用微分的四则运算和一阶微分形式不变性求解.③用公式''x ydy F dx F =-求解. （8）由参数方程所确定的函数的一阶导数一般都是参变量t 的函数，而所求函数的二阶导数22d y dx 是dydx再对x 求导，事实上是一种复合函数求导问题.复合关系图为dy t x dx→→.故dtdx dx dy dt d dx dt dx dy dt d dx y d ⎪⎭⎫⎝⎛=⎪⎭⎫ ⎝⎛=.22. （9）变限函数的导数.①()()x a d f t dt f x dx =⎰，②()()(())'()x a d f t dt f x x dx ϕϕϕ=⎰，

ξξ==破坏这个等式得不等式. (2) 利用函数的单调性证明不等式一般步骤为:① 移项(有时需作其它简单变形),使不等式一端为零,另一端为()f x② 求()'f x 并验证()f x 在指定区间的增减性,若()'f x 的符号判定不了,再求()''f x ,③ 求区间端点的函数值(或极限值)，作比较既得所证. (3) 利用最大值与最小值证明不等式. ① 求()'f x ,② 令()'0f x =可得驻点0x x =,若0x x =是区间内唯一的驻点且是极值点,则0x x =一定是最值点.(4) 利用凹凸性证明不等式.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice.Passage OneImpatience has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuck in traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past. (第11 题)Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. ( 第12 题) They suggest that “digital technology, from cellphones to emails to iPads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from this technology have in turn increased our desire for instant satisfaction in other aspects of our lives.” Psycholog ist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become an immediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly,efficiently and in the way we want. When that doesn’t happen, we tend to become increasingly frust rated and unsatisfied.”Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people who send messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. (第13 题) Also, with e-mails, as with letter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider such formalities (客套）to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instantmessaging. Many people do not take the time to proofread what they put in writing. As a result, letters and e-mails contain numerous grammatical and spelling errors. (第14 题)The thirst for immediate results is not limited to the digital communications.People seem to be losing their ability to wait in other areas of life. For instance, do you ever find yourself talking too fast, eating too fast, driving too fast, or spending money too fast? The few moments it takes to wait for an elevator to come, for a traffic light to change, or for a computer to start may seem like too long a time.11. According to the first paragraph, people ____.A. have been patient for a long timeB. were more patient in the pastC. used to be patient while stuck in trafficD. used to be patient while waiting in line12. Nowadays people lose their patience because ____.A. their desire for satisfaction has increasedB. they are bored with what they haveC. their life has been changed by technologyD. they have more things to do than before13. Some believe that e-mail could soon become outdated because ____.A. it takes a long time to start the computerB. people value formalities between friendsC. cellphones are more popular nowadaysD. people can hardly wait for a response14. The pursuit of instant results causes people to ____.A. have more errors in their writingsB. become more impoliteC. use voice messages instead of emailsD. lose many of their abilities in life15. The best title for the passage might be“____”A. Are We Less Patient Today?B. What Are the Problems Caused by Impatience?C. What Happened to Technology?D. Has Digital Technology Changed Our Lives?BCDAAPassage TwoKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she hadtwo normal legs. Scout, 18, answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it would seem weird to me. Besides, if it weren't for the missing leg, I wouldn’t have the opportunities I have today!” (第16 题)Scout has faced big challenges. When she was only months old, she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg was especially damaged, and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14, she got a high-tech leg made for sports and put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my first time,” she says. “But my doctor said, ‘You have to start somewhere.’” (第17 题)Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said, “I’ve been doing this for a while. Let me give you some tips.” Reinertsen, who lost her leg when she was seven, is the first disabled woman to have finished the Ironman Triathlon(铁人三项）in Hawaii. She works with an organization to help support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager’s life. She lost that first race,but gained the confidence that she needed to compete. If Sarah could do it, she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also finds time to share her story 3with school groups. (第19 题)“Sometimes people look at me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even if you aren’t physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind—maybe with family, or homework, or friends. No matter what it is, you can overcome that obstacle,” she says, “Everything you need is inside your heart. (第20 题) Take small steps. As time goes by, the steps will get bigger andyou will reach your dream.”16. Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She’s scared of changing her current situation.B. She couldn’t have them even if she wanted to.C. She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disa bled.D. She has never thought about it before.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere” (Para. 2) ?A. She has to find the right place to start.B. She has to do it sooner or later.C. That will be a memorable first time.D. That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experiences ____.A. were the cause of her shynessB. were a nightmare until she reached 14C. didn’t have much influence on her later lifeD. didn’t stop her from fulfilling herself19. Which of the following statements is true?A. Sarah shared her story with school students.B. Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C. Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.D.

Nora noticed a guy sitting inside a cardboard box next to a newsstand. She pulled at my coat sleeve and said, “That man’s cold, Daddy. Can we t ake him home?” (第21 题)I don’t remember my reply, but I do remember a sudden heavy feeling inside me. I had always been delighted at how much my daughter noticed in her world, whether it was birds in flight or children playing. But now she was noticing suffering and poverty. She wasn’t even four. (第22 题)A few days later, I saw an article in the newspaper about volunteers who delivered4meals to elderly people. ( 第23 题)The volunteers went to a nearby school on aSunday morning, picked up a food package, and delivered it to an elderly person. I signed us up. Nora was excited about it. She could understand the importance of food, so she could easily see how valuable our job was. When Sunday came, we picked up the package and phoned the elderly person we’d been assigned. She invited us right over.The building was depressing. When the door opened, facing us was a silver-haired woman in an old dress. She took the package and asked if we would like to come in. Nora ran inside. I reluctantly followed. Our hostess showed us some photos of her family. Nora played and laughed. I accepted a second cup of tea. When it came time to say good-bye, we three stood in the doorway and hugged. I walked home in tears. Where else but as volunteers do you have the opportunity to do something enjoyable that’s good for yourself as well as for others? Indeed, the poverty my daughter and I h elped lessen that Sunday afternoon was not the woman’s alone—it was in our lives, too. Now Nora and I regularly serve meals to needy people and collect clothes for the homeless. Yet, as I’ve watched her grow over these past four years, I still wonder—which of us has benefited more? (第24 题)21. The man Nora noticed on that evening was probably ____.A. one of those homelessB. asking for foodC. taken home by the authorD. buying a newspaper22. The author had a sudden heavy feeling (Para. 2), because ____.A. he did not want to take the guy homeB. his daughter had noticed the dark side of lifeC. he felt a deep sympathy for the guyD. his daughter was afraid of what she saw23. Their volunteer job was to ____.A. visit poor homesB. serve meals at a nearby schoolC. deliver food to needy, elderly peopleD. pick up packages for poor, elderly people24. The word “us” in the last paragraph refers to ____.A. the author and the old womanB. the giver and receiver of the helpC. the author and the guy in the boxD. the author and his daughter25. The best title for this passage might be “____”A. A Loving KidB. Volunteers at WorkC. How to Help the NeedyD. A Lesson in CaringABCDD5Passage FourScientists measured the impact that people have on the environment using a termcalled carbon “footprint.” That footprint reflects the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted(排放) into the atmosphere as a result of someone’s daily activities. (第26 题)Carbon footprints tend to be low for city dwellers(城镇居民). Living in a suburb outside a city，however, can turn that footprint into a bootprint. (第27 题) Energy researchers Christopher Jones and Daniel Kammen calculated carbon footprints for people in every zip code across the United States. People living in city centers had small footprints, the researchers found. “It is much easier to have a low carbon impact if your home is close to where you work, shop and play,” explains Jones. Living within walking or biking distance cuts back on the amount of carbon dioxide associated with moving people by cars. (第28 题) And cities with extensive bus and subway networks allow people to travel great distances while keeping releases of climate-altering greenhouse gases low.Not everyone can afford to live in the city, however. And not everyone wants to. Rings of suburbs have popped up around major cities across the world. Suburbs offer more space, allowing people to build larger homes. Suburbs may offer better schools for a family’s kids. But those homes are typically well beyond walking distance from where their owners work, play or learn. So people who live in suburbs often drive long distances.The new findings are an important contribution to climate research, says Matthew Kahn, (第29 题) an environmental economist at the University of California, who wasnot involved with the study. Kahn would like to see the analysis applied to other parts of the world—Europe, India and China, for instance. That would give scientists a better feel for how culture might mix with location to influence our carbon footprints.26. “Footprint” refers to the amount of carbon dioxide released by ____.A. an individualB. an industryC. a regionD. a country27. What is the new finding concerning the footprints of people living in cities and those living in suburbs?A. The two are not at all comparable.B. The former are higher than the latter.C. The former are similar to the latter,D. The latter are higher than the former.28. What is the key factor mentioned to explain the new findings?A. Spending habits.B. Distance travelled by cars.C. Size of families.D. Attitude towards energy saving.29. What does Matthew Kahn think of the new findings?A. He thinks highly of them.67B. He is confused by the mixed messages.C. He can easily understand them.D. He doubts their validity.30. What is the purpose of the author in writing the passage?A. To call on people to reduce carbon footprints.B. To offer tips on how to live a low-carbon life.C. To introduce the research on carbon footprints.D. To clear up misunderstandings about carbon emission.ADBACPart IIIVocabulary and Structure (10 points)Directions：There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.

2014公共英语串讲补充资料阅读完型六篇VIP专用Passage1What makes Americans spend nearly half their food dollars on meals away from home?The answers lie in the way Americans live today.During the first few decades of the twentieth century, canned and other convenience foods freed the family cook from full-time duty at the kitchen range.Then,in the1940s,work in the wartime defense plants took more women out of the home that ever before,setting the pattern of the working wife and mother:Unless family members pitch in with food preparation,women are not fully liberated from that chore.It's easier to pick up a bucket of fried chicken on the way home from work or take the family out for pizzas or burgers than to start opening cans or heating up frozen dinners after a long,hard day.Also nowadays,the rising divorce rate means that there are more single working parents with children to feed.And many young adults and elderly people,as well as unmarried and divorced mature people,live alone rather than as a part of a family unit and don't want to bother cooking for one.Fast food is appealing because it is fast,it doesn't require any dressing up,it offers a "fun"break in the daily routine,and the outlay of money seems small.It can be eaten in the car-sometimes picked up at a drive-in window without even getting out-or on the run.Even if it is brought home to eat,there will never be any dirty dishes to wash because of the handy disposable wrappings.Children,especially,love fast food because it's forger food,no struggling with knives and forks,no annoying instructions from adults about table manners.1.Americans enjoy fast food mainly because______.A.it can be eaten in the carB.it is much more tasty than home-madeC.one only uses his forgers while eating itD.it is time-saving and convenient2.It can be inferred that children______.A.want to have freedom at tableB.wash dishes after each mealC.are not good at using forks and knives while eatingD.take eating time as a fun break3.Many Americans are eating out and not cooking at home nowadays because______.A.they want to make a change after eating the same food for years at homeB.the food made outside home tastes better than food cooked at homeC.many of them live alone or don't like taking trouble to cookD.American women refuse to cook at home due to women's liberation movement4.According to the text,a drive-in window is a______.A.car window from which you can see the driverB.window in the restaurant from which you get your meal in the carC.place where you check the mechanic condition of your carD.entrance where you return the used plates after eating5.The expression"pitch in with"(Line2,Para.2)probably means_______.plainB.enjoyC.helpD.denyPassage2The evidence for harmony may not be obvious in some families.But it seems that four out of five young people now get on with their parents,which is the opposite of the popularly-held image of unhappy teenagers locked in their room after endless family quarrels.An important new study into teenage attitudes surprisingly shows that their family life is more harmonious than it has ever been in the past."We were surprised by just how positive today's young people seem to be about their families,"said one member of the research team. "They're expected to be rebellious and selfish but actually they have other things on their minds;they want a car and material goods,and they worry about whether school is serving them well.There's more negotiation and discussion between parents and children,and children expect to take part in the family decision-making process.They don't want to rock the boat."So it seems that this generation of parents is much more likely than parents of30years ago to treat their children as friends."My parents are happy to discuss things with me and willing to listen to me,"says17-year-old Daniel Lazall,"I always tell them when I'm going out clubbing.As long as they know what I'm doing,they're fine with it."Susan Crome,who is now21, agrees."Looking back on the last10years,there was a lot of what you could call negotiation.For example,as long as f d done all my homework,I could go out on a Saturday night.But I think my grandparents were a lot stricter with my parents than that."Maybe this positive view of family life should not be unexpected.It is possible that the idea of teenage rebellion is not rooted in real facts.A researcher comments,"Our surprise that teenagers say they get along well with their parents comes because of a brief period in our social history when teenagers were regarded as different beings.But that idea of rebelling and breaking away from their parents really only happened during that one time in the1960s when everyone rebelled.The normal situation throughout history has been a smooth change from helping out with the family business to-taking it over."6.What is the popular image of teenagers today?A.They worry about school.B.They dislike living with their parents.C.They have to be locked in to avoid trouble.D.They quarrel a lot with other family.7.The study shows that teenagers don't want to______.A.share family responsibilityB.cause trouble in their familiesC.go boating with their familyD.make family decisionspared with parents of30years ago,today"s parents______.A.go to clubs more often with their childrenB.are much stricter with their childrenC.care less about their children's lifeD.give their children more freedom9.According to the author,teenage rebellion______.A.may be a false beliefB.is common nowadaysC.existed only in the1960sD.resulted from changes in families10.What is the passage mainly about?A.Negotiation in family.cation in family.C.Harmony in family.D.Teenage trouble in family.Passage3Nowadays,a standard for measuring power has changed.These changes foretell a newstandard for measuring power.No longer will a nation's political influence be based solely on the strength of its military forces.Of course,military effectiveness will remain a primary measure of power.But political influence is also closely tied to industrial competitiveness.It's often said that without its military the Soviet Union would really be a third-world nation.The new standard of power and influence that is evolving now places more emphasis on the ability of a country to compete effectively in the economic markets of the world.America must recognize this new course of events.Our success in shaping world events over the past40years has been the direct result of our ability to adapt technology and to take advantage of the capabilities of our people for the purpose of maintaining peace.Our industrial prowess over most of this period was unchallenged.It is ironic that it is just this prowess that has enabled other countries to prosper and in turn to threaten our industrial leadership.The competitiveness of America's industrial base is an issue bigger than the Department of Defense and is going to require the efforts of the major institutional forces in our society-government,industry,and education.That is not to say that the Defense Department will not be a strong force in the process because we will.But we simply cannot be,nor should be,looked upon by others as the savior of American industry.11.Now a nation's political influence depends on.A.the strength of its military forcesB.its ability to compete in industryC.economic marketsD.both A and B12.The Soviet Union was not listed as a third-world nation just because of.A.its powerful military forcesB.its vast landC.its industrial competitivenessD.its contributions to world peace13.The author indicates that is threatening American political power.A.other countriesB.the declining U.S.industrial baseC.a new standard for measuring powerD.less advanced technology14.America succeeded in shaping world events over past40years probably because of.A.its ability to adapt technologyB.its ability to take advantage of the capabilities of its peopleC.its ability to compete in the world marketsD.both A and B15.The purpose of writing this article is.A.to draw the readers'attention to a new standard for measuring powerB.to demonstrate American political influence in the worldC.to emphasize that efforts must be made to strengthen the declining U.S.industrial baseD.to show American industrial prowessPassage4Diana Jacobs thought her family had a workable plan to pay for college for her21-year-old twin sons:a combination of savings,income,scholarships,and a modest amount of borrowing. Then her husband lost his job,and the plan fell apart."I have two kids in college,and I want to say`come home,'but at the same time I want to provide them with a good education,"says Jacobs.The Jacobs family did work out a solution:They asked and received more aid from the schools,and each son increased his borrowing to the maximum amount through the federal loanprogram.They will each graduate with$20,000of debt,but at least they will be able to finish school.With unemployment rising,financial aid administrators expect to hear more families like the Jacobs.More students are applying for aid,and more families expect to need student loans. College administrators are concerned that they will not have enough aid money to go around.At the same time,tuition continues to rise.A report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education found that college tuition and fees increased439%from1982to 2007,while average family income rose just147%.Student borrowing has more than doubled in the last decade,"If we go on this way for another25years,we won't have an affordable system of higher education,"says Patrick M.Callan,president of the center."The middle class families have been financing it through debt.They will send kids to college whatever.it takes,even if that means a huge amount of debt."Financial aid administrators have been having a hard time as many companies decide that student loans are not profitable enough and have stopped making them.The good news,however, is that federal loans account for about three quarters of student borrowing,and the government says that money will flow uninterrupted.16.According to Paragraph1,why did the plan of Jacobs family fail?A.The twins wasted too much money.B.The father was out of work.C.Their savings ran out.D.The family fell apart.17.How did the Jacobs manage to solve their problem?A.They asked their kids to come home.B.They borrowed$20,000from the school.C.They encouraged their twin sons to do part-time jobs.D.They got help from the school and the federal government.18.Financial aid administrators believe that_______.A.more families will face the same problem as the JacobsesB.the government will receive more letters of complaintC.college tuition fees will double soonD.America’s unemployment will fall19.What can we learn about the middle class families from the text?A.They blamed the government for the tuition increase.B.Their income remained steady in the last decade.C.They will try their best to send kids to college.D.Their debts will be paid off within25years.20.According to the last paragraph,the government will_______.A.provide most students will scholarshipsB.dismiss some financial aid administratorsC.stop the companies from making student loansD.go on providing financial support for college studentsHave you eaten too much over the holidays?You should try fidgeting for a while.Those around you might not like it,but scratching(moving your nails against a part of your body)and twitching(moving suddenly and quickly when you don't want to)is an important way of burning up calories.American researchers have found that some people's squirming(continuously turn your body when nervous)and wigging(move in small movements,especially from side to side)equals several miles of slow running each day.The scientists,based at the National Institute of Health's laboratory in Phenix,Arizona,are studying why some people get fat and other stay slim.In one study177people each spent24hours in a room in the institute where the amount of energy is measured by their oxygen and carbon dioxide levels.By the end of the day,some people had burned up800calories in toe-tapping,(moving the front part of your foot up and down) finger-drumming(hitting your fingers continuously and

that each of us is responsible for setting our own goals and determining whether we have met these goals satisfactorily.Because each of us possesses unique differences in genetic ability and favorable environments in which to express these abilities,it is necessarily true that we must define success broadly.For some people,simply being able to live their life with a minimum of misery and suffering is considered a success.Think of the peace of mind of the poor shepherd who tends his sheep, enjoys his frugal life with his family in the beauty of nature,and who is respected because he does a good job of achieving the goals expected of and accepted by his and his society.On the other hand,it seems that even though some people appear to be rich in material possessions,many of them seem to be miserable and consider themselves unsuccessful when judged by their own standards of success.Because not all ventures can be successful,one should not set unrealistic goals for achieving success,but if one has self-confidence it would be unfortunate to set one's goals at too low a level of achievement.A wise counselor once said to a young man who was experiencing frustration with his own professional success:"You do not have to set your goal to reach the moon in order to have success in traveling.Sometimes one can be very successful merely by taking a walk in the park or riding the subway downtown,"The counselor added,”You have not really failed and spoiled your chances for success until you have been unsuccessful at something you really like,and to which you have given you best effort."26.In the first paragraph,the author implies that_______are essential in achieving success.A.ability and goalsB.goals and determinationC.ability and environmentD.goals and environment27.The

peaceC.their goals are too lowD.they are not rich enough by their own standards.29.The last paragraph implies that_______.A.we should have high goalsB.success means achieving great goalsC.success means taking a walk in the parkD.success means trying one's best at what one really likes30.This passage mainly talks about_______.A.the definition of successB.how to achieve successC.how to set goalsD.the importance of goals1-5DCCBC6-10DBDAC11-15DABDC15-20BDACD21~25DCACA26~30CCDDA。

makes one person more intelligent that another?What makes one person a genius,like the brilliant Alert Einstein,and another person a fool?Are people born intelligent or stupid,or is intelligent the result of where and how you live?These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know,however,that just being born with a good mind is not enough.In some ways,the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle.It needs exercise.Mental(done with the mind)exercise is particularly important for young children.Many child psychologists(心理学家)think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about.The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent.If,on the other hand,children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do,they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children.According to some psychologists,if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot,then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things.So it is probably better for parents to say very positive(helpful)things to their children,such as"That was a very clear thing you did."or"You are such a smart child."61.Alert Einstein mentioned in the fist paragraph is a___.A.workerB.presidentC.geniusD.foolpared with the words“intelligent”and“brilliant”in the first paragraph,the word“dull”in the second paragraph means___.A.pretty and handsomemonC.clever and brightD.slow in thinking and understanding63.What should parents do in order to make their children bright?A.Stay with their children to play.B.Don’t leave their children alone.C.Praise their children frequently.D.All of the above.64.A person___is more likely to become a genius.A.whose parents are cleverB.born with a good brain and putting it into active useC.often helped by his parents and teachersD.often thinking about difficult problems65.Which of the following is NOT clear according to the passage?A.Intelligence is obviously the result of where and how you live.B.Parents’efforts play an important part in their children’s growth.C.Mental exercise is particularly important for young children.D.The less you use your mind,the duller you may become.Passage2More than30,000drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year.At a speed of only30miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor window.Wearing a seat belt saves lives.Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over14in most vehicles must wear a seat belt.If you do not,you could be fined up to$50.It will not be up to the driver to make sure you wear your belt.But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure the children under14not to ride in the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.However,you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle or you are making a local delivery or collection using a special vehicle,or if you have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing it.Make sure these circumstances apply to you before you decide not to wear your seat belt.Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so,and you may be fined if you can not prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.66.Wearing a seat belt can___.A.reduce road accidents by more than halfB.reduces the death rate in traffic accidentsC.Save30,000lives each yearD.save15,000lives each year67.It is the driver’s responsibility to___.A.urge you to wear your seat beltB.make the front seat passenger wear a seat beltC.stop children from taking the front seatD.make the front seat passenger under14wear a seat belt68.At a speed of30miles per hour could___.A.be dangerousB.be safeC.have nothing specialD.be OK in any situation69.This passage is probably taken from___.A.a tour guidebookB.a magazineC.an advertisementD.a police report70.According to the passage,in which situation do you need to wearing a seat belt?A.You are using a special vehicle to deliver goods.B.You back your car into the garage.C.You have a valid medical certificate which excuses you from wearing the seat belt.D.You are driving your car in the street at the speed of30miles per hour.Passage3Time is the biggest problem of most students.It becomes particularly difficult when you have to do library research for a term paper or report.Finding information in the library can take so much time that many students avoid it until the last possible minute.Library research does not have to be time consuming.If you learn to use a library efficiently,you can save yourself a great deal of time.The exercises in this section are designed to familiarize (使熟悉)you with the library so that you can find the information you need quickly.The first and most important thing to know about a library is that when you cannot find something,ask a library for help.The libraries are paid not just to shelve(把书上架)books,but to provide information and assistance.The most helpful libraries are usually those who work in the reference room.They will help you get started on a term paper and even help you find material.There are two basic place to begin looking for information:the card catalog and the various periodical indexes(索引).The card catalog is a list of all the books in the library.A periodical index is a list of all the magazine and journal articles written on any subject.71.According to the author,finding information in the library needs a lot of time,so students should___.A.avoid it until the last possible minuteB.learn to ask for helpC.learn how to use it efficientlyD.save a great deal of time72.It is the libraries’duty to do all the following things

room75.The passage is taken from an introduction of a chapter,and the title of the chapter is probably___.A.Save Your Study Timeing the Library EfficientlyC.How to Find a Book QuicklyD.How to Get Help from Librarians Passage4The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us.Sound has a waster product,too,in the form of noise.Noise has been called unwanted sound.Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better.Scientists,for several years,have been studying how noise affects people and animals.They are surprised by what they have learned.Peace and quest are becoming harder to find.Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully.There is a saying that it is so noisy that you can’t hear yourself think.Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think.If we don’t,we may have headaches,other aches and pains,or even worse mental problems.Noise adds more tension(紧张)to society that already faces enough stress.But noise is not a new problem.In ancient Rome,people complained so much about noise that government stopped chariots(四轮马车)from moving through the streets at night!Ways of making less noise are now being tested.There are even laws controlling noise.We cannot return to the “good old days”of peace and quiet.But we can reduce noise–if we shout loudly enough about it.76.Why are

2014年山东专升本英语真题及答案作文全文共10篇示例，供读者参考篇1Oh my gosh, guys! You won't believe what happened during the 2014 Shandong adult college entrance exam for English! The questions were soooooo tricky, but I managed to crack them all with the help of my amazing brainpower.First off, there was a reading comprehension section that had a passage about the history of Chinese calligraphy. It was super interesting, but the questions were so sneaky! They asked stuff like, "What is the main idea of paragraph two?" and "What does the word ‘script’ mean in t his context?" I had to really pay attention to the details to get them right.Next up was the grammar section, which totally had me scratching my head. They asked about verb tenses, prepositions, and word order. Like, who even knew that "I have been studying English for two years" is present perfect continuous tense?! But I stayed calm and answered each question to the best of my ability.And finally, there was the writing part where I had to write an essay on the topic of "The Importance of Education in Modern Society". I shared my thoughts on how education can open doors to opportunities, help us develop critical thinking skills, and build a better future for ourselves and others. It was a serious topic, but I tried to keep my writing clear and organized.After a few hours of intense brainwork, I finally finished the exam and handed it in. I was so relieved that it was over, but also proud of myself for tackling those tough questions head-on. I can't wait to see my results and hopefully ace the exam!So yeah, that was my experience with the 2014 Shandong adult college entrance exam for English. It was a challenge, but I faced it with determination and came out on top. I can't wait to see what other exciting adventures lie ahead in my educational journey!篇2Hello everyone!

The answer is “to” and “by”!The second question was a reading comprehension about a boy who loved animals. His name was Tim and he had a dog named Max.

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I will continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy,but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy , is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---the healthier---our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage, we know that _____.A.the author complains about her parents’ being too understandingB.the author has been studying marriage for more than 20 yearsC.People divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD.Some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationships than to other intimate relationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our parents, we should firstly _____.A.have willingness to do soB.have love for themC.get into connection with themD.care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to ____.A.befriendB.understandC.loveD.care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time---consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment,“this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their“always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you will have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But , still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n) _____.A.easy jobB.tough taskC.must-be jobD.arranged task67. It is quite _____ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.ualB.normalC.abnormalD.unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that _____.A.people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB.People would cash out the gift immediatelyC.People are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD.People are less willing to give gifts.69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open a gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is_____.A.indifferentB.protestingC.objectiveD.supportivePassage ThreeThey already guide blind and disabled people ;now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆).The duties of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat , drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks .These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it , or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Seotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyee Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said:“People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relativ e normal life , and dogs help to maintain routine .”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship . Pe ople light up when they can see animals .They don’t need to communicate verbally but they can still interact . You can have a speechless bond .The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks ,ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people .71.As is mentioned in the passage ,the guide dogs will do the following except for ____ .A.helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB.reminding the owner to take medicinemunicating with the owner in a non-verbal wayD.helping the owner recover from the illness72.Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A.The students who developed the idea.B.The owners of the dogs.C.The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland .D.It is not mentioned in the passage .73.What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A.They would like to stay with other people.B.They can maintain routine .C.They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life .D.They would like to talk in a different way .74.The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will ___.A.respond to the owners orderB.respond to a sound deviceC.act on the owners instructionsD.act on the trainers order75.Having a conversation with people with dementia will be ___.A.difficultB.interestingC.confusing D .encouragingPassage FourIt seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore, more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of CD. There will always be somepeople who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too---but making money through sales of their music i sn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in their music in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally ---to computer, phone and MP3 players rose to $2 billion in 2006---an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year---yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big questions for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music by mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases---they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24-year-olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon a s they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for the record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally. Piracy---usually in the form of cheaply copied CD---has long been an issue for the music business but the internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76.What is unusual abou t the Crimea’s business plan ?A.Their business was given away free on the Internet .B.They gave CDs away free in shops .C.They played free concerts.D.They charged more for their CDs.77.The Crimea hope to make money___.A.through CD salesB.by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC.by selling merchandise on the InternetD.through sales of merchandise in shops78.The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because ___.A.people who attend their concerts need themB.they want to make extra moneyC.there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD.people who fail to attend their concerts need them79.What is true about sales of music over the last year?A.Overall,sales are up on last year.B.Overall,sales are down on last year.C.There is no change compared to previous salesD.It is not mentioned in the passage.80.What effect has internet had on music piracy?A.It is made it easier to fight piracyB.It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C.It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D.It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part IV TranslationSection A81.她喜欢看书时听音乐。

As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful real ity is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to better understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The Last willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper---and healthier--- our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that _____.A. the author complains about her parents’ being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. People divorced mainly beca use they didn’t love each otherD. Some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too muchB. Because it is quite difficult to understand the othersC. Because we believe we are always rightD. Because the others have done something wrong63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimate relationshipsB. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concernedC. Understanding is more important than love to some degreeD. Understanding is more often neglected in parentingrelationship64. If we are to understand our partners, we should firstly ____?A. Have willing to do soB. Have love for themC. Get into connection with themD. Care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaningto_____.A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage TwoFinally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning...is exhaustive and time-consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving, In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthfulcomment, “always wanted” gifts back to the store to exchange for something they really wanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift packaged so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)_____.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. must-be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ____for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC. abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that____A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to open to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giverB. Wrap the gift carefullyC. Express the appreciation for the gift you receiveD. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is_____.A. IndifferentB. protestingC. objectiveD. supportive参考答案：61-65DCCAB 66-70 BDADC第四部分Passage ThreeThey already guide blind and disabled people; now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia（痴呆）.The duties of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite-proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or walking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “people in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relative normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s ,but dogs can give the m a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see an imals. They don’t need to communicate verbally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for_______.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. Communicating with the owner in a non-verbal wayD. Helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to say with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will _______.A. respond to the owners orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners instructionsD. act on the trainers order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be _______.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage FourIt seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group the Crimea did earlier this year. The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people the can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some [people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too-- but making money throu gh sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally --to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to $2 billion in 2006 -- an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year -- yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buy CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers the\y used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases -- they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK Mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24-year-olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the mount of music that is downloaded illegally. Piracy --- usually in the form of cheaply copied CD ---has long been an issue for the music business but the internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They give CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs.77. The Crimea hope to make money _______.A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the internetD. though sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because _______.A. People who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. People who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. overall, sales are up on last year.B. .overall, sales are down on last year.C. there is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.参考答案：71-75 DCCBC 76-80 ABCBC第五部分81. 她喜欢看书时听音乐。

A great many educators firmly believe that English is one of the poorest taughtA B Csubjects In high schools today.DThe academic year is divided into two terms, each of which provides for about 15 weeks of instruction plus a week for final examinations. The fall semester, considered the first term of the academic year, usually begins in September or late August, and it is increasingly common for the term to start early enough to be completed before the two-week Christmas holiday. Colleges start later in September. The second or spring semester usually begins sometime in January and ends in late May or early June. Most schools schedule a one- or two-week vacation in March or April. A variation of the semester system being tried by some institutions is the “4—1—4” calendar, which has a four-month fall semester ending in December, a one-month short term in January for which students may enroll if they wish, and another four-month semester beginning early in February.91.

In the “4—1—4” calendar system, the first term begins ___.A. In DecemberB. In AugustC. In JanuaryD. In FebruaryQuestions 96~100 are based on the following passage:In sport the sexes are separate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same faces. Women are less strong than men. That at le ast is what people say. Women are called “the weaker sex”, or, if men want to please them, “the fair sex”. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are women’s bodies really weaker?The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women’s times are always slower than men’s, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teen-age girls. One of them swam 400 meters in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first “Tarzan”(泰山) in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny WeissMuller. His fastest 400 meters was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone injections. At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated when there are two separate sexes!96. Women are called “the weaker sex” because ____.A. women do as much work as menB. people think women are weaker than menC. sport is easier for men than for womenD. in sport the two sexes are always together97. Which of the following is true?A. Boys and girls study separately everywhere.B. Women do not run or swim in races with men.C. Famous Prime Ministers are women.D. Men can expect to live longer than women in Europe.98. “That at least is what people say.” Means people____.A. say other things tooB. don’t say this muchC. say this but may not think soD. only think this99. What problems does sport have?A. Some women athletes are actually men.B. Some women athletes are given hormone injections.C. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races.D. It is difficult to check whether women athletes are really women.100. In this passage the author implies that ____.A. women are weaker than men, but fasterB. women are slower than men, but strongerC. men are not always stronger and faster than womenD. men are faster and stronger than womenQuestions 101~105 are base on the following passage:The stamp collector can learn a great deal from the colorful pieces of paper he put in his album. In addition to learning some basic things about organization and systematic arrangement, the stamp collector can receive a good course in history and geography from stamps. As a collector progresses and becomes more specialized, stamps teach him some basic facts about engraving, paper, and printing.Stamps are excellent sources of historical information. Almost every nation celebrates its military heroes and political leaders on its postage stamps. But scientists and artists, from Einstein to Beethoven, also grace the stamps of the world. Famous battles are frequently commemorated, as well as buildings and scenes which have historical significance. Several of the world’s stamp s are beautiful, full-color reproductions of the artistic masterpieces of different historical periods.Stamps also offer instruction in geography. It doesn’t take long before a beginning collector checks the locations of the countries from which his stamps come. Nations like Liechtenstein, San Marino, Andorra, Gabon, Ghana, and Afghanistan, while unknown to many, are usually quite familiar to stamp collectors. Moreover, each country tends to use stamps to advertise its natural wonders. Such renowned attractions as Yosemite National Park, Victoria Falls, Mount Everest, and the Bay and Fundy appear on the stamps of the nation within whose borders they lie.If he wishes to become more of a specialist, the stamp collector can learn some basic things about engraving, paper, and printing. The more advanced collector learns to distinguish between offset and letterpress printing. He learns to identify the different impressions made by metal and wooden engraved plates. He finds out how to detect watermarks in the various papers used for stamps, and how to identify the characteristics of different papers and the coatings which are applied to them. To the layman, most stamps appear pretty much the same. But armed with a magnifying glass, the more specialized collector can tell the difference between a common issue and a rare variety.101. Which of the following statements do you think best describes the main idea of the essay?A. A stamp collector must have a great deal of knowledge in history and geography.B. A stamp collector should be good at organization and systematic arrangement.C. A stamp collector can learn a lot from the stamps he collects.D. A stamp collector is a specialist who know much about engraving, paper and printing.102. The word “album” in the first sentence means___.A. a holder for sets of discB. a blank book used for collecting stampsC. a frame in which the best stamps are displayedD. a small box where colorful stamps are kept103. “Basic thing about organization and systematic arrangement” refers to ___.A. postal organizations and systems that print and issue new stampsB. various organizations and systems that sell new stampsC. organizations all over the world that offer help to stamp collectorsD. knowledge or information about how to organize and arrange things in good order104. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Almost all nations issue stamps celebrating their military heroes or political leaders.B. Famous battles and buildings of historical significance are frequently commemorated on stamps.C. Few scientists and artists appear on stamps.D. Scientists and artists as well as political and military leaders are celebrated on stamps.105.

Key：106-110 BCCAD 111-115 BCDAC 116-120 BBCAB 121-125 ACDBAIV. Translation from English into Chinese (15 marks)Directions: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined parts, numbered 126~130. After reading the passage carefully, you should translate the underlined parts into Chinese.Science falls into two main categories: pure science and applied science. (126) Pure science considers how the universe works and how life has developed into the plants and animals we see on earth today. By means of pure science(such as chemistry, physics, geology, biology, or astronomy) we learn the laws of nature, the way the bodies of beasts and men are constructed, and how the minds of men function. (127) Applied science, often called engineering or technology (such as civil, mechanical, electrical, or chemical engineering), puts the laws of nature to practical use on building better structures and machines for the comfort and convenience of men.When a man learns some new fact by research in pure science, we say that he has made a scientific discovery. 128) When he puts an earlier discovery to some practical use, in a new and original way, we say that he has made an invention. In the two hundred years since the beginning of the great change that we call the Industrial Revolution, developments both in pure and in applied science speeded up in a way that the world had never before seen. All the sciences leaped forward, neck and neck like horses in a race. (129) At one time, one pulled ahead; then another caught up with and passed it. An invention in one field made possible some discovery in another; and thatdiscovery, in turn, permitted another new application of science for the benefit of man. (130) For example: the invention of the microscope led to the discovery of germs; eventually, the germ theory of disease made possible the curing of many ills for which no effective treatment had ever before been know.Key：126 理论科学研究宇宙怎样运行，生命怎样发展成为我们今天在地球上所看到的植物和动物。

No doubt the store was crowded with last minute Christmas shoppers and the staff were dead beat and longing to get home .Presumably all the proper Security checks were made before the store was locked and they left to enjoy the three-day holiday untroubled by customers desperate to get last minute Christmas presents.However that may be, our tramp found himself alone in the store and decided to make thebest of it. There was food, drink, bedding and camping equipment, of which he made good use. There must also have been television sets and radios Though it was not reported if he took advantage of these facilities, when the shop re-opened, he was discovered in bed with a large number of empty bottles beside him. He seems to have been a man of good humor and philosophic temperament---as indeed tramps very commonly arc. Everyone also was enjoying Christmas, so he saw no good reason why he should not do the same. He submitted(屈服), cheerfully enough, to being taken way by the police. Perhaps he had bad a better Christmas than usual. He was sent to prison for Seven days. The judge awarded no compensation to the chain store for the food and drink our tramp had consumed. They had, in his opinion, already received valuable free publicity from the coverage the story received in the newspapers and on television.61. The tramp was locked in the store____A. Thought an error of his ownB. due to a mistake of Christmas shoppersC.by accident.D. through a trick of his62. “The staff were dead beat”in the first paragraph means they were _____A. woundedB. exhausted.C. irritableD. forgetful.63. What did the tramp do after he had been locked in?A. He stole some expensive items from the store.B. He made himself at home.C.He kept himself in bed for 3 days.D. He had a Christmas party.64. When the tramp was arrested, he _____A.gave good reasons to protect himselfB.said a lot of humorous wordsC.felt rather sadD.seemed to be willing to be taken away65、The judge did not award compensation to the chain store because he thought that_____A. The tramp had stolen nothing of value.B. The store had profited by the incident.C. The tramp deserved a happy Christmas.D. The store was responsible for what had happened.Passage 25In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child must physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called "classical conditioning." This occurs when one event or stimulus is continuously followed by a reward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to associate his mother's face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort. Negative emotions are learned in a similar fashion.The second kind of learning is called "operant (动作的) conditioning. This occurs when an individual learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries and cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more.Every day .we grow and have new experience .we constantly learn by reading .watching television interacting with other people .and so forth .this learning affects our emotions .why is that we learn to like some people and dislike others?If a person is nice to us .cars about us .we learn to associate this person with positive feeling .such as joy .happiness.and friendliness .on the other hand .if a person is mean to us .does not care about us and even deliberately does things to harm us .we learn to associate this person with negative feelings.such as unhappiness.discomfort and anger.66. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to ___________.A. teach children how to learn to produce and experience certain emotionsB. give the general reader an account of two basic kinds of learningC. give parents some advice on how to modify their children's emotions through learningD. discuss with psychologists how positive and negative feelings are produced67. If your jokes often find a ready echo in a person, you will learn through __________ that telling jokes to this person is fun, and you will try with greater efforts to be humorous in his presence.A. classical conditioningB. operant conditioningC. neither A nor BD. some other sorts of conditioning68. If a child is bitten or startled several times by a dog, he may learn to associate furry (有皮毛的) animals with pain or startle and thus develop a fear of furry animals. This is a typical example of learning through _________.A classical conditioningB both of themC operant conditioning C neither of them69.In the third paragraph .the author is _______A discussing how we grow and have new experience every dayB talking about learning by reading .watching television .interacting with people and so onD using example to further illustrate learning through classical conditioning70.in the following paragraphs the author will most probably go on discuss______A definitions of positive feeling and negative feelingsB the third kind of learningC further examples of learning through operate conditioningD none of the above6Passage3People travel a lot with Heaven Air because they know they will get what they want.They want to go quickly and safely across the land, across the sea or right across the world,and they know Heaven Air will take them where they want to go whenever they want to go.

According to some people, she lived in Boston, and her real name was Elizabeth Vergoose. Her son-in-law, a printer named Thomas Fleet, was supposed to have published the famous stories and poems for small childrenin 1719. However, no copy of this book has ever been found, and most scholars doubt the truth of this story-and doubt, moreover, that Mother Goose was ever a real person. They point out that the name is a direct translation of the French "Mere L'oye'. In 1697 the Frenchman Charles Perrault published the first book in which this name was used. The collection contains eight tales, including"Sleeping Beauty", "Cinderella", and "Puss in Boots". But Perrault did not originally make up these stories；they were already quite popular in his day, and he only collected them.76.

III Reading Comprehension(2*20)Passage1Looking back on my childhood.Ia am convinced that naturalists are born and not made.Although we were all brought up in the same way,my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed flowers and insects.Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages,I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary.I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in,of my room and my toys.Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents,aunts,uncles and cousins who gathered next door.But I do have a crystal-clear memory of dogs,the farm animals,the local birds and above all,the insects.I am a naturalist,not a scientist.I have a strong love of the natural world,and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations.I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil,reading about other people's observations and discoveries.Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind.Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle(谜),because it all seems to fit together.This has resulted in my publishing300papers and books,which some might honor with the title of scientific research. But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline,a quality I lack.A scientist can be made.A naturalist is born.If you can combine the two,you get the best of born worlds.61.The first paragraph tells us the author______.A)was born to a naturalist's familyB)lost his hearing when he was a childC)didn't like his brothers and sistersD)was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood62.The author can't remember his relatives clearly because.A)he didn't live very long with themB)he was fully occupied with observing natureC)he was too young when he lived with themD)the family was extremely large63.It can be inferred from the passage that the author was_____.A)no more than a born naturalistB)a naturalist but not a scientistC)a scientist as well as a naturalist.D)first of all a scientist64.The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he_____.A)lacks some of the qualities required of a scientistB)has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticC)just reads about other people's observations and discoveriesD)comes up with solutions in a most natural way65.According to the author,a born naturalist should first of all be______.A)full of ambition C)full of enthusiasmB)knowledgeable D)self-disciplinedPassage2The outside world begins creeping into the school when the children reach the age of13and older,the age when they begin to make subject choices and when,according to a careers officer,they know if they're a scientific lot or more inclined to the arts'.The difficult part is bringing the outside world to life with all its opportunities and realities.Schools are handicapped because they are staffed by people who only know about schools.Careers services are heavily influenced by what is readily available in the area,which may be sausage-making(香肠制造) in Wiltshire of ship-building in Clydeside.Somewhere out in the world there are snail(蜗牛)geneticists(遗传学家) and landscape gardeners and girls who polish Elizabeth Taylor's diamonds,but the careers officer knows little of them.What he knows about is engineering and hairdressing and opportunities in the Army.It is not surprising that this constant friction between grand aspirations(抱负)and uninspired reality produces cynicism(玩世不恭，愤世嫉俗)in both parties.Wherever they work,sixteen and seventeen-year-olds can find themselves used as cheap labor,picking things up off floors,fetching and carrying.Some are paid a reasonable wage but it is quite possible to be paid only pocket-money.That's in the living-in jobs like hotel work.There is a small breakthrough of girls into traditionally male preserves like agriculture,but that may be because very few boys now would put up with the low wages. Most girls,despite women's liberation,head straight for hairdressing,nursing or office work and dream of being swept off their feet by the boss.66.In what sense does the author say the outside world begins"creeping into schools"when children first make subject choices?A.Children begin to become interested in careers possibly open to them.B.Children know what they are good at,science or arts.C.Children start to make constant contact with careers officers.D.Children start to be concerned with what occupations they will be able to obtain.67.The result of the present staffing arrangements in schools is____________.A.teachers can concentrate on teachingB.schools can offer little help in finding career opportunitiesC.students are well prepared for whatever jobs they will getD.students leave school unqualified68.According to the passage,the youth become cynical because______________.A.they feel they are misled by careers officersB.they can't accomplish in reality their strong desires to become scientists or to do something greatC.what they learn at school is quite different from what they see in societyD.they are treated unfairly in society69.According to the author,some girls start to engage in agriculture_____________.A.because they think they can do what boys can doB.because they have no other alternativesC.because there lie new career opportunitiesD.because that's exactly what the Women's Liberation Movement advocates70.A suitable title for the passage might be____________.A.The Gloomy Job Situation for the YouthB.The Difficulties in Job Hunting for the YouthC.The Disability of Careers OfficersD.The Friction between Aspirations and RealityPassage3Normally a student must attend a certain number of graduate,and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count toward a degree.In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester.A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks;while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year.It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period.It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course,though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade,which is recorded,and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers.All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work,but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs.Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm.The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities.Any student who is thought to have broken the rules,for example,by cheating has to appear before a student court.With the enormous numbers of students,the operation of the system doesinvolve a certain amount of activity.A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will ha of benefit to him later in his career.71Normally a student would at least attend____classes each week.A)36B)12C)20D)1672According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed_____.A)to live in a different universityB)to take a particular course in a different universityC)to live at home and drive to classesD)to get two degrees from two different universities73American university students are usually under pressure of work because_____A)their academic performance will affect their future careersB)they are heavily involved in student affairsC)they have to observe university disciplineD)they want to run for positions of authority74Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because_____.A)they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB)they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC)such positions help them get better jobsD)such positions are usually well paid75The student organizations seem to be effective in_____.A)dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB)ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC)evaluating students’performance by bringing them before a courtD)keeping up the students'enthusiasm for social activitiesPassage4In only two decades Asian American have become the faster-growing US minority.As their children begin moving up through the nation‘s schools.it became clear that a new class of academic achievers was emerging. Their achievements are reflected in the nation’s best universities,where mathematics,science and engineering departments have taken on a decidedly Asian character.This special liking for mathematics and science is partly explained by the fact that Asian-American students who began their education abroad arrived in the U.S.with a solid grounding in mathematics but little or no knowledge of English.They are also influenced by the promise of a good job after ns feel there will be less unfair treatment in areas like mathematics and science because they will be judged more objectively.And the return on the investment in education is more immediate in something like engineering than with an arts degree.Most Asian American students owe their success to the influence of parents who are determined that their children take full advantage of what the American educational system has to offer.An effective measure of parental attention is n parents spend more time with their children than American parents do,and it helps.Many researchers also believe there is something in Asian culture that breeds success,such as ideals that stress family values and emphasize education.Both explanations for academic success worry Asian Americans because of fears that they feed a typical racial image.Many can remember when Chinese,Japanese and Filipino immigrants were the victims of social isolation. Indeed,it was not until1952that laws were laid down giving all Asian immigrants the right to citizenship.76.While making tremendous achievements at college,Asian American students________.A.feel they are mistreated because of limited knowledge of EnglishB.are afraid that their academic successes bear a strong Asian characterC.still worry about unfair treatment in societyD.generally feel it a shame to have to depend on their parents77.What are the major factors that determine the success of Asian Americans?A.A solid foundation in basic mathematics and Asian culture.B.Hard work and intelligence.C.Parents’help and a limited knowledge of English.n culture and the American educational systerm.78.Few Asian American students major in human sciences mainly because_____.A.their English is not good enoughB.they are afraid they might meet with unfair judgment in these areasC.there is a wide difference between Asian and Western culturesD.hey know little about American culture and society79.Why do“both explanations”(Para.3)worry Asian Americans?A.They are afraid that they will again be isolated from American society in general.B.People will think that Asian students rely on their parents forn Americans will be a threat to other minoritiesD.American academic achievements have taken on too strong an Asian character80.The author’s tone this passage is_____.A.sympatheticB.doubleC.criticalD.objectivePart IV Translation81.当他急匆匆的赶到车站时却发现公交车已经开走了。
