will your little boy like, sir?” “Oh, just an ice cream,” the man tells him.After he finishes his meal, the man stands up and says to the waiter, “I’m just going out to buy a newspaper.” He leaves the restaurant.The waiter gives the boy an ice cream.The boy eats it, and then stands up and walks to the door.The waiter runs towards him.“Excuse me,” he says, “but your father hasn’t come back and he hasn’t paid for his meal or your ice cream.You’d better stay here until your father comes back and pays his bill.” “He’s not my father,” the boy says.“The man came up to me in the street and asked me if I liked ice cream.I told him I did.The he told me to come into the restaurant at nine o’clock and sit at his table.He said he would give me one.”puters Many people know what a computer is and what it can do.The computer is fast and never makes mistakes,while people are slow and often make mistakes.That’s what people often say when they talk about computers.For many years, scientists have improved computers.Now a computer can do a lot of everyday work quite well, and people can use a computer in many ways.Many computer scientists are now thinking of making the computer “think” like a man.With the help of a person, a computer can draw pictures, write music, talk with people, and so on.Maybe a computer will think and fee one day.30.Two American Presidents There are stories about two U.S.presidents, Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren.They try to explain to people how the word “OK” came from.We don’t know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.Some said that President Jackson could hardly read or write.When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read hem or asked his men to tell him what they said.If he agreed, he would write “All correct” on the Paper.The problem was that he did not know how to spell.So he wrote “OL Korekt” ter it was shortened to “OK”.Others said that President Van Buren was born in Kinderhook, New York.Van Buren’s friends organized a club to help him become president.They called the club Old Kinderhook Club.Anyone in the club was called “OK”.31.A second language.One day, the m other rat and her babies were having a

the mother rat stopped running, turned around and shouted at the cat,“Bowwow.Bowwow!” just like an angry dog.The cat was so surprised and afraid that she ran away.The mother rat turned to her babies,“Now you see how important it is to learn a second language!” 32.The snowman It's winter now.It’s very cold in the morning.It's all white outside because it snowed yesterday.Mr.Dog wants to

Many people believe this.There is an old story about breaking mirrors.Long ago, people happened to see their faces in ponds and lakes.Some people were frightened.“That must be my soul,” a person would say.The mirrors were made of shiny ter, people used glass mirrors.They were careful not to break them.Breaking a mirror would harm the soul.That is how a broken mirror came to meanbad luck.The bad luck is supposed to last for seven years.You may not believe this story.You may have no bad luck with mirrors.But you should handle mirrors carefully.A broken mirror could cut you.39.Go fishing One summer holiday I was in the forest by myself.I went down to fish in the river.Soon I got a big fish.Then I heard a great noise.There, right behind me, sat a big black bear!Wild animals are afraid of any quick move.So I moved very slowly.The bear watched me.But he sat still.I took the fish and threw it to him.He ate it at once.Now what was I going to do? I’d better go on fishing, I thought.The bear thought so, too.Soon I got another fish.I went over to him and put the fish into his big red mouth.I fished and fished-all for him.At first I was afraid to stop.Then I began to like doing it.He was so friendly.When evening came, the bear stood up and turned away from me.40.The Candy King Once candy was not made for children.In one country, almost 5,000 years ago, candy was made only for kings.T oday, children are the candy kings.Have you ever eaten licorice? People in ancient times ate licorice, too.They did think of licorice as candy at first.They ate licorice to keep them strong and well.In some countries, people ate licorice to make them beautiful!Later, people ate it just because it tasted good!All candy was made by hand until 1845.In that year, a man made a candy machine.By the 1900s, candy was sold all over the world.T oday, candy companies say a person eats from 15 to 30 pounds of candy a year.More than 2,000 different kinds of candy are made!How many kinds do you eat, candy king? 41.Yawn Sometimes people feel sleepy.They can't stay interested in what they are doing and they open their mouths wide quickly.We call this a yawn.It makes a pretty silly face.Why do people do it? Scientist do not know much about yawns.But they have someideas.Our bodies get tired.Our minds get tired, too.A tired mind needs air.So we yawn.The quick yawn takes in air.And the air wakes up our mind, but not for long.Watch out!Here comes another yawn.42.Two thieves Mike was taken to the police station and put in a room with another thief, an older man.This man looked at Mike and said, “Why have they brought you here?” “I stole a small radio one day after my lessons,” said Mike.The man laughed rudely at Mike.“You should st eal something which is worth a lot if you want to be a thief.You ought to steal something really valuable, which you can be proud of, so that your name is put in the newspaper.Go and steal a lot of money from a bank next time!” Mike thought for a few secon ds and then said, “I can't do that.” “Why can't you?” said the old thief.“ Are you afraid?” “No,” said Mike.“I am not afraid, but the banks all close at three o'clock, and my lessons don't finish till four.” 43.A Giant Kite David always liked kites.When he became eighteen, his father gave him a giant kite.It was so large that he thought it could carry him up into the air.David tied a rope from the kite to a boat.He grabbed onto the kite and told the person in the boat to start pulling.Soon David was gliding through the air.The boat pulled David and his kite for four hours.When the boat stopped, David splashed into the water.He said that it had been a lot of fun.44.Once a year Tom finished school when he was eighteen years old.He wanted to work at a bank in the city.He went to the bank and asked for work there.A man took him into a small room and gave him questions on a piece of paper.T om wrote the answer on the paper in a hurry.The man looked for a few minutes, and then said, “Was your birthday on the 12th of December, Tom?” “Yes, sir.” Tom said.“What year?” the man asked.“Oh, once a year, sir.“ T omsaid.45.A new Diet Alma and her mother were walking home when a small dog began following them.There was a note tied to the dog's collar.Alma read the note, it sai d, ”My name is Lady.My owner cannot keep me.May I be your pet?“ Alma showed the note to her mother.”May I keep the dog?“ she asked.The puppy looked like a nice dog.Mother said that they could keep it.Alma and Lady were happy.Alma had a new pet, and Lady had a new home.46.The Frog That Changes color Birds live in trees.Squirrels live in trees.But do you know that some frogs live in trees, too? The tree frog is hard to find.This frog can change color.On green leaves, it stays green.On a brown branch, it turns brown.Some tree frogs can change from green to gold or blue.Tree frogs have legs and wide feet.They have sticky pads at the ends of their toes.These sticky toe pads keep the tree frogs from falling.Tree frogs have different colors and markings on their skin.Their eyes are different, too.Some green eyes, some gray.Some frogs' eyes are gold, and some are bright red.The sounds they make in spring and summer are different, too.One frog makes a sound like a dog barking.Another frog makes a loud noise like a snore.There is even a frog that whistles!47.The City of San Francisco San Francisco is a beautiful American city.It lies on the western coastline of the United States.It has lovely views and beautiful scenery.The Golden Gate Bridge, for instance, is a beautiful place to visit.Every day, thousands of people come to visit and enjoy its views.San Francisco is a hilly city.The lovely hills in the middle of the city make it the most attractive place.Many people walk up and down the hills, and some of the visitors also like to drive on the paths.They can see more places then.There are also visitors who like to take cable cars.They can get a better view of the city while the cars are moving along the tracks.Besides the GoldenGate Bridge and the hills, Chinatown is also a place worth seeing.Every day many people come to visit Chinatown.Some of them are coming to taste Chinese food, Others are coming for Chinese articles.You can buy wonderful Chinese objects in Chinatown.48.Benjamin Franklin Benjamin Franklin liked to study and learn about new things.One day he heard a friend say that something black in color absorbs the heat better than something white in color.Franklin wanted to see if this was true.There was snow on the ground at that time.So he put two large pieces of cloth on the snow.One piece of cloth was black in color, while the other was white.Then he waited.The sun began to shine.After several hours, he looked under the pieces of cloth.He saw that the snow under the black cloth melted much faster than the snow under the white cloth.Franklin made many other experiments and made some discoveries.He also took an active part in politics, and he was a very famous American statesman.He was one of the earliest important writers in America.His autobiography was successfully and interestingly written.49.Stop writing It's true that the English people are a nation of animal lovers.Charles Dickens, a famous writer, had a cat.The cat was very fond of his master.He didn't like to see Dickens working too hard.At night, when the cat wanted to say ”stop writing" to his master, he often put out Dickens' candle with his paw.50.The Robots Robots are becoming a big part of our lives.There may be half a million robots in the U.S 20 years from now.These machines are changing the way of work that is being done.Thousands of robots are used in factories.These robots are not like the robots in movies.They don't walk or talk.Instead, a robot may be just metal arm.The robot arm can do a certain job in a factory over and over again.it can do jobs that people may not want to do.A robot never gets。

Clinging (46) thedrifting girders, he felt like the most successful man in the w (47) .He crawled, monkey-fashion, along the steel lacework of the jib until he crouched, hundreds of feet up, above the wrinkling khaki river. A flock of sunstruck pigeons whirled in harmony around the control house roof.It was so perfect that he knew he could do it. He stood up, balancing against the breeze, feeling on (48) of the world. Slowly he raised his hands above his head, c (49) glance upwards into the icy sky, then, just before he lost his balance, he chose to rise on tiptoe and launch himself into a taut dive. He tipped off the jib and began to tilt through the sunset.The sound which came from him was an involuntary shriek of pure joy-he cared neither if he lived (50) if he died. His body,pointed like a shuttle, wove a slow circle through the air, hurtling ever downwards to the peaky grey surface. By chance, his dive had him angled perfectly to enter the water with a splashless "glup" at some dangerously high velocity.The shock-of the water stopping his flight, and of the vicious cold, (51) (prevent) him from realizing immediately that he wasstill alive. His clothing dragged in the dark water and he started to fight his way upward to the dull light above. Disbelieving and (52) (stun), he gasped as he broke the surface, returning to an almost unchanged peachy evening.The impetus of his dive still with him, he floundered in his shoes and jacket to the nearest quayside ladder and clambered up the vertical green wall. Once on the quay, he squeezed the edges of his jacket and emptied his shoes. He looked up to the monstrous structure towering above him and (53) (scarce) believed that he'd actually dived from yon threadlike piece of latticework. Yet he was certainly soaking and he remembered the exhilaration of his descent. He looked a (54) to see if there had been any witnesses to his dive. The docks remained silent and deserted as rust-coloured sunlight flooded the area.Consequently, when he told anyone he'd dived off the biggest of the dockland cranes into the Clyde, and just for f (55) , no one believed him.SSS_FILL46.SSS_FILL47.SSS_FILL48.SSS_FILL49.SSS_FILL50.SSS_FILL51.SSS_FILL52.SSS_FILL53.SSS_FILL54.SSS_FILL55.Part Ⅳ Reading ComperhensionRead the following passages. Each passage is followed by several questions. Respond to the questions using information from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.Section AEysenck's research strategy begins by dividing the elements of personality into various units that can be arranged hierarchically.The basic structure in this scheme is the specific response level, which consists of specific behaviors. For example, if we watch a man spend the afternoon talking and laughing with friends, we would be observing a specific response. If this man spends many afternoons each week having a good time with friends, we have evidence for the second level in Eysenck's model, a habitual response. But it islikely that this man doesn't limit himself to socializing just in the afternoon and just with these friends. Suppose this man also devotes a large part of his weekends and quite a few evenings to his social life. If you watch long enough, you might find that he lives for social gatherings, discussion groups, parties, and so on. You might conclude, in Eysenck's terms, that this person exhibits the trait of sociability. Finally, Eysenck argues that traits such as sociability are part of a still larger dimension of personality. That is, people who are sociable also tend to be impulsive, active, lively, and excitable. All these **bine to form the supertrait Eysenck calls extraversion.How many of these supertraits are there? Originally, Eysenck's factor analytic research yielded evidence for two basic dimensions that could subsume all other traits: extraversion-introversion and neuroticism. Because the dimensions are independent of one another, people who score on the extraversion end of the first dimension can score either high or low on the second dimension. Further, someone who scores high on extraversion and low on neuroticism possesses different traits than does a person who scores high on both extraversion and neuroticism.Where do you suppose you fall in this model? If you are the prototypic extravert, then Eysenck describes you as "outgoing, impulsive and uninhibited, having many social contacts and frequently taking part in group activities". An introvert is "a quiet, retiring sort of person, introspective, fond of books rather than people". Of course, most people fall somewhere between these two extremes, but each of us is perhaps a little more of one than the other.Eysenck argues that extraverts and introverts differ not only in terms of behavior but also in their physiological makeup. Eysenck originally maintained that extraverts and introverts have different levels of cerebral cortex arousal when in a nonstimulating, resting state. Although it may sound backward at first, he proposed that extraverts generally have a lower level of cortical arousal than do introverts. Extraverts seek out highly arousing social behavior because their cortical arousal is well below their desired level whendoing nothing. In a sense, highly extraverted people are simplytrying to avoid unpleasant boredom. Their problem is feeding their need for stimulation. Introverts have the opposite problem. They typically operate at an above-optimal cortical arousal level. These people select solitude and nonstimulating environments in an effort to keep their already high arousal level from becoming too aversive.Unfortunately, a great deal of research has failed to uncover the different levels of baserate cortical arousal proposed by Eysenck. For example, introverts and extraverts show no differences in brain-wave activity when at rest or when asleep. But this does not meanthat Eysenck's original theorizing was entirely off base. Rather, there is ample evidence that introverts are more sensitive to stimulation than extraverts are. Introverts are even more responsive than extraverts when exposed to chemical stimulants, such as caffeine or nicotine.Consequently, many researchers now describe extraverts and introverts in terms of their different sensitivity to stimulation, rather than the different base rate of cortical activity Eysenek proposed. However, the effect is essentially the same. Because of physiological differences, introverts are more quickly overwhelmed by the stimulation of a crowded social gathering, whereas extraverts are likely to find the same gathering rather pleasant.Mark each statement as either true (T) or false (F) according to the passage.SSS_JUDGEMENT56.There are five units in Eysenck's research on personality, which can be arranged hierarchically.正确错误SSS_JUDGEMENT57.According to Eysenck, an extravert tends to be impulsive and gets excited easily.正确错误SSS_JUDGEMENT58.Eysenck believes if one is highly extravert, he or she shows little sign of neuroticism.正确错误SSS_JUDGEMENT59.Eysenck's study on the difference of extraverts' and introverts' cortical arousal hasn't been justified by other researchers yet.正确错误SSS_JUDGEMENT60.The physiological differences between introverts and extraverts are believed existing by few researchers nowadays.正确错误Section BWe're in the midst of a global interconnection that is expected to have consequences at least as profound. What would happen if all the information stored on the world's computers were accessible via the Internet to anyone?Ask Dr. Denise Nagel, executive director of the NationalCoalition for Patient Rights, about medical privacy. "Small-scale privacy atrocities take place every day. The technology is getting ahead of our ethics," says Nagel.(61) Then, even more than today, the citizenry instinctively loathed **puter and its injunctions against folding, spindling, and mutilating. The public rebelled, and Congress took up the question of how much the government and **panies should be permitted to know about us.(62) The first Fair Credit Reporting Act, passed in 1970, overhauled what had once been a secret, unregulated industry with no provisions for due process. The new law gave consumers the right to know what was in their credit files and to demand corrections. Other financial and health privacy acts followed, although to this day no federal law protects the confidentiality of medical records.The public and private sectors took two very different approaches. Congress passed legislation requiring that the government tell citizens what records it keeps on them while insisting that the information itself not be released unless required by law. Theprivate sector responded by letting each industry-credit-**panies, banking, insurance, marketing, advertising-create its own guidelines.(63) In the old days, information stored in government databases was relatively inaccessible. Now, however, with PCs onevery desktop linked to office networks and then to the Internet, data that were once carefully hidden may be only a few keystrokes away.Kevin Kelly, executive editor of Wired magazine, says: "We think that privacy is about information, but it's not-it's about relationships." There was no privacy in the traditional village or small town; everyone knew everyone else's secrets. And that**fortable. "What's gone out of whack is we don't know who knows about us anymore. Privacy has become asymmetrical."(64) And not surprisingly, he and others points out that what technology has taken, technology can restore. The idea is to **puter users to decide how much information they want to reveal while limiting their exposure to intrusive marketing techniques. Website entrepreneurs learn about their customers' tastes without intruding on their privacy.(65) Many office electronic-mail systems warn users that the employer reserves the right to monitor their e-mail. "Technology has outpaced law," says Marc Rotenberg, director of the Washington-based Electronic Privacy Information Center. Rotenberg advocates protecting the privacy of e-mail by encrypting it with secret codes so powerful that even the National Security Agency's **puters would have a hard time cracking it. Such codes are legal within the United States but cannot be used abroad—where terrorists might use them to protect their secrets-without violating U. S. export laws.Rotenberg thinks we need a new government agency-a privacy agency—to sort out the issues. "We need new legal protections," he says, "to enforce the privacy act, and to act on behalf of privacy interests." Wired's Kelly disagrees. "A federal privacy agency would be disastrous! The answer to the whole privacy question is more knowledge," he says. "More knowledge about who's watching you. More knowledge about the information that flows between us."A. But worse things may already be happening.B. Our culture is undergoing a kind of mass identity crisis,trying to hang on to a sense of privacy and intimacy in a global village of tens of millions.C. The result was a flurry of new legislation that clarified and defined consumer and citizen rights.D. That approach worked-to a point, when mainframes started giving way to **puters.E. Many online consumers, however, are skittish about leaving any footprints in cyberspace.F. It all started in the 1950s, when the US government began entering records on big **puters, using nine-digit identification numbers as data points.G. The trick, says Kelly, is too restore that balance.SSS_SIMPLE_SIN61.A B C D E F GSSS_SIMPLE_SIN62.A B C D E F GSSS_SIMPLE_SIN63.A B C D E F GSSS_SIMPLE_SIN64.A B C D E F GSSS_SIMPLE_SIN65.A B C D E F GSection CLaughter is a fundamental part of everyday life. It is so common that we forget how strange-and important-it is. Indeed, laughter is a "speaking in tongues" in which we're moved by an unconscious response to social and linguistic cues. Stripped of its variation and nuance, laughter is a regular series of short vowel-like syllables usually transcribed as "ha-ha", "ho-ho" or "hee-hee". These syllables are part of the universal human vocabulary, produced and recognized by people of all cultures.Given the universality of the sound, our ignorance about the purpose and meaning of laughter is remarkable. We somehow laugh at just the right times, without consciously knowing why we do it. Most people think of laughter as a simple response to comedy, or a cathartic mood-lifter. Instead, after ten years of research on this little-studied topic, I concluded that laughter is primarily a social vocalization that binds people together.Students in my classes confirmed the social nature of laughter by recording the circumstances of their laughter in diaries. After excluding the effects of media, the fact was striking: Laughter was thirty times more frequent in social than solitary situation and it's a signal we send to others and it virtually disappears when we lack an audience.As anyone who has ever laughed at the sight of someone doubled over can attest, laughter is contagious. Because our laughter is under minimal conscious control, it is spontaneous and relatively uncensored. Contagious laughter is a compelling display of Homo sapiens, a social mammal. It strips away our outer layer of culture and challenges the hypothesis that we are in full control of our behavior. From these synchronized vocal **e insights into the neurological roots of human social behavior and speech.The irresistibility of others' laughter has its roots in the neurological mechanism of laugh detection. The fact that laughter is contagious raises the intriguing possibility that humans have an auditory laugh detector-a neural circuit in the brain that responds exclusively to laughter. Once triggered, the laugh detector activates a laugh generator, a neural circuit that causes us in turn to produce laughter. Furthermore, laughter is not randomly speech. There is evidence of "the punctuation effect", the tendency to laugh almost exclusively at phrase breaks in speech. The pattern requires that speech has priority over laughter.Pain reduction is one of laughter's promising applications. Rosemary Cogan, Ph. D., a professor of psychology at Texas Tech University, found that subjects who laughed at a funny video or underwent a relaxation procedure tolerated more discomfort than other subjects. Humor may help soften intense pain and it may also help us cope with stress. In a study by Michelle Newman, Ph. D., an assistant professor of psychology at Pennsylvania State University, subjects viewed a film about three grisly accidents and had to narrate it either in a humorous or serious style. Those who used the humorous tone had the lowest negative effect and tension. However, a problem with these studies is that none of them separate the effects of laughter from those of humor. None allow for the possibility that presumed effects of laughter or humor **e from the playful setting associated with these behaviors. And none evaluate the uniqueness of laughter by contrasting it with other vocalizations such as shouting.。

大学生英语竞赛(NECCS)B类英语专业决赛真题2014年(总分：110.00，做题时间：120分钟)一、Part Ⅰ Listening Comperhension (总题数：1，分数：5.00)（分数：5.00）(1).Which kind of transport is the man suggesting that the woman takes? （分数：1.00）A.CarB.TrainC.Coach √D.Ship解析：[听力原文] W: I'm looking for a convenient way to travel the country. M: Have you heard of hiring a coach? Many people use this form of transport, it's cheap and very popular. W: No. I've not heard of it. Tell me about it. M: It's like going on an ocean cruise except that you go by land. Everything is planned for you from the moment you step on board a luxury coach. 对话中女士表示自己正在寻找一种便捷的全国旅行方式，于是男士问道“Have you heard of hiring a coach”(你听说过长途客车租赁吗)，接下来便进行了详细的介绍，因此答案选C。

It doesn't look much from the outside, but there's a great atmosphere and it's amazing value for money, especially if you're a big eater like us. There's only one menu. You pay ￡20 and you can eat as much as you like. Of course, if you're not very hungry, it's perhaps not a good idea to go there. M: What's the food like? W: Not bad at all. There're plenty of choices on the menu. M: It sounds great. I will try it! 对话开头女士便对一家餐馆Big George赞不绝口，提到“...it's amazing value for money, especially if you're a big eater like us”，指出只要花20英镑，可以想吃多少吃多少，因此B项“如果饿的话，Big George是一个不错的选择”符合录音内容。
