江苏省2012 年普通高校专转本统一英语考试第一卷(共100 分)Part I Reading Comprehension(共20 题,每题2 分,共40 分)Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.American researchers have developed a technique that may become an important tool in fighting AIDS. The technique stops the AIDS virus from attacking its target-cells in the body's defense system. When AIDS virus enters the blood, it searches for blood cells called T4 lymphocytes (淋巴细胞). The virus connects to the outside of T4 lymphocytes, then forces its way inside. There it directs the cells' genetic (基因的)material to produce copies of the AIDS virus. This is how AIDS spreads.Researchers think they may be able to stop AIDS from spreading by preventing virus from connecting to T4 cells. When AIDS virus finds a T4 cell, it actually connects to a part of the cell called CD4 protein.Researchers want to fool the virus by putting copies or clones of the CD4 protein into the blood. This way the AIDS virus will connect to the cloned protein instead of the real ones. Scientists use the genetic engineering methods to make the clones. Normally a CD4 protein remains on the T4 cell at all times. The AIDS virus must go to it.In a new technique, however, the cloned CD4 protein is not connected to a cell. It floats freely, so many more can be put into the blood to keep the AIDS virus away from real CD4 proteins on T4 cells. One report says the AIDS virus connects to the cloned proteins j ust as effectively as to real protein. That report was based on tests with blood cells grown in labs. The technique is just now beginning t o be tested in animals. If successful, it may be tested in humans within a year.1. The new technique can ________.A. cure AIDSB. kill the AIDS virusC. prevent the AIDS virus from spreadingD. produce new medicines for AIDS2. When the AIDS virus enters the blood, it is reproduced by ________.A. the inside of the virus itselfB. any blood cells in the bodyC. the CD4 proteinD. the genetic material of T4 cells3 The AIDS virus connects to cloned proteins instead of to the real ones because ________.A. the cloned proteins stay on the T4 cellsB. the cloned proteins can float freely in the bloodC. it connects to cloned proteins more effectively than to the real onesD. the cloned proteins are made by genetic engineering methods4. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The new technique has been tested in labs.B. The new technique is being tested in animals.C. The new technique may be tested in humans.D. The new technique is now under clinical test.5 Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?A. AIDS---a Fatal Disease.B. A New Technique in fighting AIDS.C. A Report on the Spread of AIDS Virus.D. The Technique of Cloned CD4 Protein.Passage TWOQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.During the early ears of last century, wheat was seen as the very lifeblood of Western Canada.When the crops were good, the economy was good; when the crops failed, there was depression. People on city streets watched the yields and the price of wheat with almost as much feeling as if they wee growers. The marketing of wheat became an increasingly favorite topic of conversation. War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the western crop. For years, farmers mistrusted speculative(投机的)grain selling as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices were generally low in the autumn, but farmers could not wait for markets to improve. It had happened too often that they sold their wheat soon after harvest when farm debts were coming due(到期),only to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions, producer groups asked for firmer controls, but governments had no wish to become involved, at least not until wartime wheat prices threatened to run wild.Anxious to check(控制) inflation(通货膨胀) and rising living costs, the federal government appointed a board(董事会) of grain supervisors to handle deliveries from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended (暂停) and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle the crop of 1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board, with full authority to buy, sell, and set prices.6. The author uses the term “lifeblood”(Line1, para1.) to indicate that wheat was _______.A. difficult to produce in large quantitiesB. was easily affected by animals and plantsC. essential to the health of the countryD. expensive to gather and transport7. According to the passage, most farmers’ debts had to be paid __________. A.when the autumn harvest had just been completedB. because wheat prices were highC. as soon as the Winnipeg Grain Exchange demanded payment D, when crop failure caused depression8. According to the passage, wheat prices became uncontrolled because of conditions caused by _____.A. farmersB. supervisorsC. weatherD. war9. The word “check” (Line 1, Para.3) could best be replaced by which of the following?A. controlB. investigateC. financeD. reinforce10. According to the passage, a preliminary step in the creation of the Canadian Wheat Board was the appointment of ______.A. the Winnipeg Grain ExchangeB. a board of supervisorsC. several producer groupsD. a new governmentPassage ThreeQuestions 10 to 15 are based on the following passage.Yellowstone Park is visited by two million people every summer and is the oldest, largest and most visited wilderness in the world. All are welcome and are invited on arrival to leave their cars and explore on foot. Yellowstone, a national park for ever 100 years, lies in the State of Wyoming, to the east of the Rocky Mountain. It is also in the center of the North American continent, midway between the equator and the North Pole, at a height of over 2300 meters. The very cold winter in this area closes the park around mid-November and lasts until April or even May. In February thetemperature falls as low as 60F degree below freezing, and the animals that spend winter in the park are best able to live in the conditions such as bison, wapiti, beavers and otters. Fortunately, the area around the hot springs and geysers becomes a centrally heated oasis(绿洲) in the desert ofsnow, providing warmth and a certain mount of food for the animals. Bison used to go around the plains in their millions until they were hunted almost to extinction(灭绝) by white men with guns. In 1900 only two dozen of them remained in the park. However, since they become a protected animal, their numbers have risen to over two thousand. The end of winter is the most dangerous time for the animals as food becomes even less and they take great risks(冒险) to find it, such as walking across thin ice. This period is known as “winterkill”, when many of the weak and the old die, often from being too tired out, thus providing food for scavengers such as the coyote (a kind of wolf). With the arrival of summer, plants reappear and the animals fill themselves with rich food. The young grow strong and the tourists return to enjoy the warmth or 4 months before Yellowstone Park freezes over again.11 Bison used to go in danger. With the protection, the number is ________ now.A. falling downB. going upC. staying the sameD. becoming less12The Rocky Mountains are _____________A. in the center of WyomingB. to the west of Yellowstone ParkC. in the north of Yellowstone ParkD. to the east of Yellowstone Park13Which of the following is NOT an animal?A. otterB. beaverC. geysersD. coyote14.At the end of the 19th century_______________.A. bison ran around the plains in their millionsB. bison were hunted almost to extinctionC. bison became a kind of protected animalD. their number rose more than 20015.From the text, we can know that “ scavengers in the last paragraph are_______________A. animals which feed on other dead animalsB. places where water comes naturally from the groundC. birds which live in grass seedsD. animals which always eat as much as possiblePassage FourQuestions 15 to 20 are based on the following passage.What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观者), a leader, an active person who enjoy life, people and excitement. Do you prefer grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If you love green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people to see you are successful. At least this is what psychologist(心理学家) tell us and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect that colors have on human beings. They tell us that we don’t choose our favourite color as we grow up. If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a dark green one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing(压抑). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. It is a fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you will know your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors theylike and dislike. And don’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief or a lampshade.16. From this passage we learn that an active person would prefer those colors________.A. red, green and yellowB. gray, blue or darkC. orange, yellow or redD. yellow, orange or red17 bright colored room can _______ one’s mood.A. depressB. brightC. happyD. cheer up18Knowing the color preference can help one ____________ in their social life.A. understand the other people moreB. affect other people moreC. cheer up other people moreD. study better19In a factory, in order to reduce accidents or make the workers morehappily, it is better to have the machines painted________.A. redB. whiteC. grayD. orange20.The main idea of this passage is_________.A. one’s color preference shows one’s characterB you can brighten your life with wonderful colorsC. psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preferenceD. one’s color preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beingsPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40 小题,每小题1 分,共40 分) Directions; In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

The fact that a child picks up a language 64 is surprising: at one year old, a child is able to 65 "bye-bye"; at two, he is able to use fifty words; by three he begins to 66 tenses. The famous American linguist Noam Chomsky 67 that human beings have a sort of built-in system for language use, and that the 68 is only secondary. Children are not taught language 69 they are taught arithmetic. Other linguists, 70, hold the view that a child learns 71 of his language from the hints in the environment. 72, theorists of both schools 73 that there is a biological basis for language and language use. The 74 is which is more important, the inner ability or the environment. This is certainly a field 75 to be explored. Researchers from both schools are busy finding evidence to 76their own theory, but 77 side is persuading the other. It seems that in order to 78why a child learns a language so easily, we have to 79 the joint efforts of both schools. Some linguists, like De Villiers, have recognized the value of cooperation, and 80 linguists of both sides to work together.61. A. Surprisingly B. Personally C. Properly D. Roughly62.

We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will notthink us ill-mannered.<小赵老师解析>:manner一词的意思很多,有“方法,举止,风俗,礼貌”等,结合上下文,此处翻译为礼貌更为合适,ill-mannered则为不礼貌的;此外,race是“种族,人种”的意思,但是直接这样翻译感觉太没礼貌,可以意译为“民族”;整句话的翻译是“我们应该学习其他民族的习俗,以免被认为不礼貌。

2006 - 2012江苏专转本英语真题(附答案)
2006年江苏省普通高校“专转本”统一考试大学英语第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Passage 1Vegetable gardening is the relaxing art and science of turning a love for growing plants into a meaningful activity. Having vegetables in the backyard makes home gardening appealing for many people. In addition, vegetable gardening provides exercise and fun for both urban and suburban families.Vegetable gardeners agree that many home-grown vegetables are superior to those purchased from markets. Form spring through late fall, a well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetables, thus increasing the nutrition of the family diet.Freezers make it possible to keep some of the vegetables to be enjoyed at a later date. Other vegetables can be stored for a few months in a cool area.Although the money spent for a garden may be little, one cannot escape the fact that gardening requires hard work and time. Many of the gardening tasks must be performed at times that are most inconvenient. Not doing jobs that should be done on a regular basis may result in failure and a negative feeling toward gardening.One should not plant a garden that is too large for him to care for. A small, well-kept garden is more enjoyed and profitable than a large neglected one. Vegetables do well in full sunlight and need at least five or six hours of sun during the middle of one day. Too much shading results in poor plants and few vegetables. If possible, the garden should be near the house, so the garden can work in it whenever they are free.Soils for vegetables be easily broken up and porous (多孔的) for quick water drainage and good aeration (透气) . Usually the home owner has little choice in the soil type he can choose. Fortunately, many vegetables can be frown on poor soils if the soils are properly prepared.1. Many people find home gardeningA. expensive and boringB. interesting and enjoyableC. time-consuming and inconvenientD. neither interesting nor enjoyable2. A well-planned and well-kept garden can provide a supply of fresh vegetablesA. all year roundB. whenever you need nutritious foodC. for a greater part of the yearD. throughout spring3. The amount of money you spend on your gardenA. can be largeB. must be largeC. can not be largeD. must not be small4. Which of the following statements is true?A. Vegetables need to have as much shading as possible.B. A small garden is much better than a large one.C. Homeowners can freely choose the soil for their vegetable garden.D. Whenever possible, the vegetable garden should be close to your home.5. From the passage we can conclude thatA. vegetables need little care while growingB. vegetables can be grown on almost any kind of soilC. vegetable gardening is an indispensable part of life for urban and suburban peopleD. vegetable gardening is a good pastime for retired peoplePassage 2In old days, when a glimpse of stocking was looked upon as something so shocking as distract the serious work of an office, secretaries were men.Then came the First World War and the male secretaries were replaced by women. A man’s secretary became his suits to the dry-cleaners; telling lies on the telephone to keep away people he did not wish to speak to; and, of course, typing and filling and taking shorthand.Now all this may be changing again. The microchip (芯片) and high technology is sweeping the British office, taking with it much of the routine clerical (文书的) work tat secretaries did.“Once office technology takes over generally, the status of the job will rise again because it will involve the high-tech work—and then men will want to do it again.”That was said by one of the executive (male) of one of the biggest secretarial agencies in this country. What he has predicted is already under was in the U. S.Once high technology has made the job of secretary less routine (乏味的) , will there be a male takeover? Men should be careful of thinking that they can walk right into the better jobs. There are a lot of women secretaries who will do job as well as men—not just because they can buy negligees (女士长睡衣) for the boss's wife, but because they are as efficient and well-trained to cope with word processors and computers and computers as men.6. Before 1914 female secretaries sere rare because theyA. were less efficient and less trained than menB. were looked down upon by menC. would have disturbed the other office workersD. wore stocking and were not as serious as men7. A female secretary has been expected, besides other duties, toA. be her boss’s memoryB. do everything her boss asks her to doC. clean her boss’s clothsD. telephone the boss’s wife8. Secretaries, until recently, had to do a lot of work now done byA. machinesB. other staffC. servant’sD. wives9. A secretary in the future willA. have more work to doB. be better paidC. have higher statusD. have less work to do10. The writer believes that before longA. both men and women can act as secretariesB. men will be better than machinesC. men will take over women’s jobs as secretariesD. women will operate most office machinesPassage 3Humanity is new experiment on plant Earth. For most of its history, life on Earth was restricted to the sea. Living things began to popular the land slightly over 400 million years ago, and humans have existed for no more than 3 million years.One way to represent the evolution of life is to compress the 4.6-billion-year history of Earth into a 1-year-log film. In such a film, earth forms as the film begins on January 1, and through all of January and February it cools and is cratered (变成坑状) and the first oceans form. But those oceans remain lifeless until sometimes in March or early April, when the first living things develop. The 4-million-year history of Precambrian (前寒武纪) evolution lasts until the film reaches mid-November, when primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organisms such as trilobites (三叶虫) .If we examine the land instead of the oceans, we find a lifeless waste. But once our film shows plant and animal life on the land, about November 28, evolution proceeds rapidly. Dinosaurs, for example, appear aboutDecember 12 and vanish by Christmas Eve, as mammals (哺乳动物) and birds flourish.Throughout the 1-year-run of our film there are no humans, and even during the last days of the year as the mammals rise and dominate the landscape, there are no people. In the early evening of December 31, vaguely human forms move through the grasslands, and by late evening they begin making stone tools. The Stone Age lasts until shout 11:45 pm, and the first signs of civilization, towns and cities, do not appear until 11:45 pm. The Christian era begins only 14 seconds before the New Year, and the Declaration of Independence is signed with 1 second to spare.11. In comparing all of Earth’s geological evolution to one calendar year, the author showsA. just how recently humanity has arrived on the sceneB. just how simple it is to understand the history of EarthC. just how early humanity appears on planet EarthD. just how difficult it is to understand the history of earth12. According to the passage, primitive ocean life begins to evolve into complex organismsA. in the middle of DecemberB. when Earth is crateredC. at the beginning of NovemberD. when the land is still a lifeless waste13. It is indicated in the passage thatA. Earth id cool at firstB. Earth id hot at the beginningC. There are oceans at the beginningD. There is life in the ocean in late February14. In the one-year-long film dinosaursA. die out on December 25B. appear after December 25C. die out on December 24D. appear on December 2415. In the compressed history of Earth the Declaration of Independence is signedA. a long time before the New YearB. immediately after the New Year’s DayC. just one second before the New YearD. right on the New Year DayPassage 4 (非英语类考生必做)Internet-addicted job seekers may be partly the cause of the fact that it is taking the unemployed 23% longer to find a new position than it took during the recession (经济萧条) , when the “benefits” of online job searching were unavailable. “A growing number of unemployed Americans waste time browsing (浏览) the estimated 4,000 to 5,000 online job sites, filling them with resumes, and then waiting for replies. It is common for long-time joblessness,” argues Professor John A. Challenger. Although the Internet has the potential to be very useful for job seekers and it has become the primary tool for many, Challenger believes that it should be considered secondary to be traditional technique of meeting would-be employers in person.In addition to slowing job search efforts, the Internet is making the hiring process longer for the employer. In a survey of 5,000 hiring managers by an online resume site, 72% said that a majority of the resumes they received in response to an online job posting did not match the position’s description.“The more unrelated resumes managers have to go through in order to select the few to bring in for interviews, the longer it takes to fill the position,”points out Challenger. “One result of this has been the increased use of screening software by employers. This will make it even more difficult for job seekers get their resumes in front of the hiring executive for an interview.”“All of this is not to say that the Internet has not revolutionized job hunting. It has certainly made it easier for someone in San Francisco, for example, to search for job opening in Miami.

They may be underdeveloped or underweight. They may suffer from poor health or limited intelligence. In addition, poorly nourished children are more likely to drop out of school and earn less money as adults.The report notes that too little food is not the only cause of poor nutrition. Many children who live in homes with plenty of food suffer for other reasons. For example, the study says that mothers often fail to give their newly born babies their breast milk. This milk-like substance is called colostrums (初乳). It is full of nutrients that improve a baby’s ability’s to fight infections and disease.The study also links malnutrition (营养不良) to economic growth in poor countries. A lack of nutrition in early childhood can cost developing nations up to three percent of their yearly earning. Many of these same countries have economies that are growing at a rate of two to three percent yearly. The study suggests that poor countries could possibly double their economic growth if they improved nutrition.Africa and South Asia are affected the most by poor nutrition. The study says about half of all children in India do not get enough good food. The World Bank study also notes that rates of malnutrition in South Asia are almost double those in central and southern Africa. Other parts of the world are also severely affected, including Indonesia, Uzbekistan, Yemen, Guatemala and Peru.The study recommends that developing countries change their policies to deal with malnutrition. Instead of directly providing food, the study suggests educational programs in health and nutrition for mothers with young babies. It also recommends cleaner living conditions and improvements in health care.World Bank nutrition specialist Meera Shekar said the period of life between pregnancy and two years is extremely important. Governments with limited resources should take direct action to improve nutrition for children during this period.16. What’s the main topic of the passage?A. Poor nutrition in developing countries.B.

It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that children who get sufficient food might suffer malnutrition because .A. they eat too much rubbish food everydayB. they take little physical exerciseC. they are lacking in some kinds of necessary nutrientsD. their mothers do not have time to take care of them in the day18.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresp onding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throug h the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Different countries and different races have different manners . Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is g ood manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had en ough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a littl e food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to sho w that he enjoys it.We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means b eing kind and helping others, especially those older or weak er than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go v ery far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered p erson does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people a re waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up t o wait his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an old er person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bu mps into (碰撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says “Excuse me”or “I’m sorry”.He says “Please”when making a request, and “Thank you”when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down unt il the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself.

I was an unsatisf actory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called L iza of Lambeth, which I sent to a publisher and was accept ed. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and ha d something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days a fter I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out fo r Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowin g the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed. The next play he arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his wit’s end. He read a play of mine and, though he d id not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind could be produced . It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.6.When the author was a medical student, he ______.A had some trouble with his heartB was a very good studentC wanted to be a writer after graduationD was satisfied with what he was doing at the time该问题分值: 2答案:C7.When the author wrote his first novel, ______.A he sent it to a publisher but it was not acceptedB he was still studying at the medical schoolC he succeeded in publishing it though it was not a su ccess.D he had graduated from the medical school.该问题分值: 2答案:B8.The author gave up medicine because at that time ______.A he thought he could make a living by writingB he knew the success of the book was naturalC he knew it was no risk to be a writerD he was quite rich after the success of his book该问题分值: 2答案:A9.For the first ten years of his writing career after his gr aduation, the author earned an average of £100 a year, whi ch was ______.A a great sumB a bit of luckC a small sumD a moderate success该问题分值: 2答案:C10.The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the auth or’s play because ______.A he thought the author was a good playwrightB he liked the author’s plays very muchC he failed to arrange a new play in timeD he heard that the author had studied medicine before该问题分值: 2答案:CPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the last 500 years, nothing about people –-- not their clothes, ideas or languages --- has changed as much as wh at they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Sp anish introduced it to the rest of the world. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In L ondon, shops where chocolate drinks were served became import ant meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1500, the Sp anish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it was soon wi dely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine”of 1845-46, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that h ave traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an importan t crop in Columbia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a g oatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracte d to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake”feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.11.According to the passage, ______ has changed the most in th e last 500 years.A foodB chocolateC potatoD coffee该问题分值: 2答案:A12.“Some”in “Some still exist today”(Para.1) means ______.A some cocoa treesB some chocolate drinksC some shopsD some South American Indians该问题分值: 2答案:C13.Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine”because ______.A they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD the potato harvest was bad.该问题分值: 2答案:D14.Coffee originally came from ______.A BrazilB ColumbiaC EthiopiaD Arabia该问题分值: 2答案:C15.The Arabic legend is used to prove that ______.A coffee was first discovered by KaldiB coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goatsC coffee was first discovered in South American countriesD coffee drinks were first made by Arabs该问题分值: 2答案:APassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Around the world more and more people are taking part in d angerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure ---- those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oc eans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few min utes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of su ch an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a brid ge, or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour till the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psy chologists suggest that it is because life in modern societi es has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out an d hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and l ife was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excite ment. They live and work in a comparatively safe environment ; they buy food in shops, and there aredoctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill . The answer for some of these people is to seek danger i n activities such as bungee jumping.16.The best title for the passage would be ______.A Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB The Boredom of Modern LifeC Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous?D The Need for Excitement该问题分值: 2答案:D17.More and more people today ______.A are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB are climbing the highest mountainsC are coming close to death in sportsD are exploring unknown places该问题分值: 2答案:A18.In bungee jumping, you ______.A jump as high as you canB slide down a rope to the groundC attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD fall towards the ground without a rope该问题分值: 2答案:C19.People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays becaus e ______.A they have a lot of free timeB they can go to hospital if they are injuredC their lives lack excitementD they no longer need to hunt for food该问题分值: 2答案:C20.The writer of the passage has a ______ attitude towards dan gerous sports.A positiveB negativeC neutralD nervous该问题分值: 2答案:CPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

We waited and waited but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn’t even arrived yet. In the hall, there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ 108 could get a free meal voucher (凭单) and that the plane hadn’t left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant it wasn’t safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given three free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.The next morning after the bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we reported back to the airport.

江苏省普通高校专转本考试真题
江苏省2012年普通高校专转本考试真题英语试题卷Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题,每小题2分,共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Different countries and different races have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up to wait his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bumps into(碰撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says “Excuse me” or “I’m sorry”.He says “Please” when making a request, and “Thank you” when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.1. According to the passage, a knowledge of the customs of other races ______.A. is very usefulB. is unnecessaryC. is unimportantD. does not mean much2. A person with good manners thinks of ______.A. the older before himselfB. himself before othersC. no one but himselfD. his personal interests3. Which of the following is NOT true? A well-mannered person usually ______.A. says “Please” when making a requestB. makes an apology for bumping into someone accidentallyC. sits where he is when speaking to a ladyD. tries to help those who are in trouble4. If you want to be well-mannered, ______.A. you laugh at people when they are in troubleB. it’s all right to speak with your mouth full of foodC. you should stop someone when he is talkingD. you should speak after someone else has finished talking5. As different countries have different manners, ______A. it’s unnecessary to learn their mannersB. we should try to find out the differences in the customsC. it should be wrong to go out of one’s way to do anythingD. learning a little language would be helpedPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.I entered St. Thomas’s Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, which I sent to a publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowing the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £100 a year. Then I had a bitof luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed. The next play he arranged to pu t on was not ready, and he was at his wit’s end. He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.6. When the author was a medical student, he ______.A. had some trouble with his heartB. was a very good studentC. wanted to be a writer after graduationD. was satisfied with what he was doing at the time7. When the author wrote his first novel, ______.A. he sent it to a publisher but it was not acceptedB. he was still studying at the medical schoolC. he succeeded in publishing it though it was not a success.D. he had graduated from the medical school.8. The author gave up medicine because at that time ______.A. he thought he could make a living by writingB. he knew the success of the book was naturalC. he knew it was no risk to be a writerD. he was quite rich after the success of his book9. For the first ten years of his writing career after his graduation, the author earned an average of £100 a year, which was ______.A. a great sumB. a bit of luckC. a small sumD. a moderate success10. The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the author’s play because ______.A. he thought the author was a good playwrightB. he liked the author’s plays very muchC. he failed to arrange a new play in timeD. he heard that the author had studied medicine beforePassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the last 500 years, nothing about people –-- not their clothes, ideas or languages --- has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1500, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it was soon widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine” of 1845-46, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Columbia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with.11. According to the passage, ______ has changed the most in the last 500 years.A. foodB. chocolateC. potatoD. coffee12. “Some” in “Some still exist today” (Para.1) means ______.A. some cocoa treesB. some chocolate drinksC. some shopsD. some South American Indians13. Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” because ______.A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB. they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD. the potato harvest was bad.14.

The Arabic legend is used to prove that ______.A. coffee was first discovered by KaldiB. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goatsC. coffee was first discovered in South American countriesD. coffee drinks were first made by ArabsPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure ---- those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge, or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour till the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in a comparatively safe environment; they buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping.16. The best title for the passage would be ______.A. Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB. The Boredom of Modern LifeC. Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous?D. The Need for Excitement17. More and more people today ______.A. are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB. are climbing the highest mountainsC. are coming close to death in sportsD. are exploring unknown places18. In bungee jumping, you ______.A. jump as high as you canB. slide down a rope to the groundC. attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD. fall towards the ground without a rope19. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ______.A. they have a lot of free timeB. they can go to hospital if they are injuredC. their lives lack excitementD. they no longer need to hunt for food20. The writer of the passage has a ______ attitude towards dangerous sports.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. nervousPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

江苏省 2012 年普通高校专转本统一英语考试第一卷(共100 分)Part I Reading Comprehension( 共 20 题,每题 2 分,共40 分 )Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.American researchers have developed a technique that may become an important tool in fighting AIDS. The technique stops the AIDS virus from attacking its target-cells in the body's defense system. When AIDS virus enters the blood,it searches for blood cells called T4 lymphocytes (淋巴细胞) . The virus connects to the outside of T4 lymphocytes,then forces its way inside. There it directs the cells' genetic (基因的)material to produce copies of the AIDS virus. This is how AIDS spreads.Researchers think they may be able to stop AIDS from spreading by preventing virus from connecting to T4 cells. When AIDS virus finds a T4 cell,it actually connects to a part of the cell called CD4 protein.Researchers want to fool the virus by putting copies or clones of the CD4 protein into the blood. This way the AIDS virus will connect to the cloned protein instead of the real ones. Scientists use the genetic engineering methods to make the clones. Normally a CD4 protein remains on the T4 cell at all times. The AIDS virus must go toit.In a new technique, however, the cloned CD4 protein is not connected to a cell. It floats freely, so many more can be put into the blood to keep the AIDS virus away from real CD4 proteins onT4 cells. One report says the AIDS virus connects to the cloned proteins j ust as effectively as to real protein. That report was based on tests with blood cells grown in labs. The technique is just now beginning t o be tested in animals. If successful, it may be tested in humans within a year.1. The new technique can ________.A. cure AIDSB. kill the AIDS virusC. prevent the AIDS virus from spreadingD. produce new medicines for AIDS2. When the AIDS virus enters the blood, it is reproduced by ________.A. the inside of the virus itselfB. any blood cells in the bodyC. the CD4 proteinD. the genetic material of T4 cells3 The AIDS virus connects to cloned proteins instead of to the real ones because ________.A.the cloned proteins stay on the T4 cellsB.the cloned proteins can float freely in the bloodC.it connects to cloned proteins more effectively than to the real onesD.the cloned proteins are made by genetic engineering methods4. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The new technique has been tested in labs.B. The new technique is being tested in animals.C. The new technique may be tested in humans.D. The new technique is now under clinical test.5 Which of the following could be the best title of this passage?A. AIDS---a Fatal Disease.B. A New Technique in fighting AIDS.C. A Report on the Spread of AIDS Virus.D. The Technique of Cloned CD4 Protein.Passage TWOQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.During the early ears of last century, wheat was seen as the very lifeblood of Western Canada.When the crops were good, the economy was good; when the crops failed, there was depression. People on city streets watched the yields and the price of wheat with almost as much feeling as if they wee growers. The marketing of wheat became an increasingly favorite topic of conversation. War set the stage for the most dramatic events in marketing the western crop. For years, farmers mistrusted speculative(投机的) grain selling as carried on through the Winnipeg Grain Exchange. Wheat prices were generally low in the autumn, but farmers could not wait for markets to improve.It had happened too often that they sold their wheat soon after harvest when farm debts werecoming due( 到期 ), only to see prices rising and speculators getting rich. On various occasions, producer groups asked for firmer controls, but governments had no wish to become involved, atleast not until wartime wheat prices threatened to run wild.Anxious to check( 控制 ) inflation( 通货膨胀 ) and rising living costs, the federal government appointed a board( 董事会 ) of grainsupervisors to handle deliveries from the crops of 1917 and 1918. Grain Exchange trading was suspended (暂停 ) and farmers sold at prices fixed by the board. To handle the crop of 1919, the government appointed the first Canadian Wheat Board, with full authority to buy, sell, and set prices.6. The author uses the term“ lifeblood” (Line1, para1.) to indicate that wheat. wasA. difficult to produce in large quantitiesB. was easily affected by animals and plantsC. essential to the health of the countryD. expensive to gather and transport7.According to the passage, most farmers ’debts had to be paid __________. A. when the autumn harvest had just been completedB. because wheat prices were highC. as soon as the Winnipeg Grain Exchange demanded payment D, when crop failure caused depression8.According to the passage, wheat prices became uncontrolled because of conditions caused by _____.A. farmersB. supervisorsC. weatherD. war9. The word“ check” (Line 1, Para.3) could best be replaced by which of the following?A. controlB. investigateC. financeD. reinforce10.According to the passage, a preliminary step in the creation of the Canadian Wheat Boardwas the appointment of ______.A. the Winnipeg Grain ExchangeB. a board of supervisorsC. several producer groupsD. a new governmentPassage ThreeQuestions 10 to 15 are based on the following passage.Yellowstone Park is visited by two million people every summer and is the oldest, largest and most visited wilderness in the world. All are welcome and are invited on arrival to leave their cars and explore on foot. Yellowstone, a national park for ever 100 years, lies in the State of Wyoming, to the east of the Rocky Mountain. It is also in the center of the North American continent, midway between the equator and the North Pole, at a height of over 2300 meters. The very cold winter in this area closes the park around mid-November and lasts until April or even May. In February thetemperature falls as low as 60F degree below freezing, and the animals that spend winter in the park are best able to live in the conditions such as bison, wapiti, beavers and otters. Fortunately, the area around the hot springs and geysers becomes a centrally heated oasis(绿洲 ) in the desert ofsnow, providing warmth and a certain mount of food for the animals. Bison used to go around theplains in their millions until they were hunted almost to extinction( 灭绝 ) by white men with guns. In1900 only two dozen of them remained in the park. However, since they become a protectedanimal, their numbers have risen to over two thousand. The end of winter is the most dangeroustime for the animals as food becomes even less and they take great risks( 冒险 ) to find it, such as walking across thin ice. This period is known as“ winterkill weak”,whenand themanyoldof the die, often from being too tired out, thus providing food for scavengers such as the coyote (a kindof wolf). With the arrival of summer, plants reappear and the animals fill themselves with rich food. The young grow strong and the tourists return to enjoy the warmth or 4 months before Yellowstone Park freezes over again.11 Bison used to go in danger. With the protection, the number is ________ now.A. falling downB. going upC. staying the sameD. becomingless12The Rocky Mountains are _____________A. in the center of WyomingB. to the west of Yellowstone ParkC. in the north of Yellowstone ParkD. to the east of Yellowstone Park13Which of the following is NOT an animal?A. otterB. beaverC. geysersD. coyote14.At the end of the 19th century_______________.A. bison ran around the plains in their millionsB. bison were hunted almost to extinctionC. bison became a kind of protected animalD. their number rose more than 20015.From the text, we can know that“ scavengers in the last paragraph are_______________A.animals which feed on other dead animalsB.places where water comes naturally from the groundC. birds which live in grass seedsD. animals which always eat as much as possiblePassage FourQuestions 15 to 20 are based on the following passage.What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, red? If you do, you must be an optimist( 乐观者 ), a leader, an active person who enjoy life, people and excitement. Do you prefergrays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. If youlove green, you are strong-minded and determined. You wish to succeed and want other people tosee you are successful. At least this is what psychologist( 心理学家 ) tell us and they should know, because they have been seriously studying the meaning of color preference, and the effect thatcolors have on human beings. They tell us that we don ’t choose our favourite color as we grow up.If you happen to love brown, you did so as soon as you opened your eyes, or at least as soon as you could see clearly. A yellow room makes us feel more cheerful and more comfortable than a darkgreen one, and a red dress brings warmth and cheer to the saddest winter day. On the other hand,black is depressing( 压抑 ). Light and bright colors make people not only happier but more active. Itis a fact that factory workers work better, harder and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or dark gray. Remember, then, that if you feel low, you can always brighten your day or your life with a new shirt or a few colorful things. Remember also that you willknow your friends and your enemies better when you find out what colors theylike and dislike. And don ’t forget that anyone can guess a lot about your character when you choose a piece of handkerchief or a lampshade.16. From this passage we learn that an active person would prefer those colors________.A. red, green and yellowB. gray, blue or darkC. orange, yellow or redD. yellow,orange or red17 bright colored room can _______ one’ s mood.A. depressB. brightC. happyD. cheer up18Knowing the color preference can help one ____________ in their social life.A. understand the other people moreB. affect other people moreC. cheer up other people moreD. study better19In a factory, in order to reduce accidents or make the workers morehappily, it is better to have the machines painted________.A. redB. whiteC. grayD. orange20. The main idea of this passage is_________.A. one ’ s color preference shows one’ s characterB you can brighten your life with wonderful colorsC.psychologists have been studying the meaning of color preferenceD.one ’colors preference has something to do with his character and colors have effects on human beingsPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题 1 分,共40 分 )Directions; In this part there are forty incomplete sentences.

The fact that a child picks up a language64is surprising:at one year old, a child is able to65"bye-bye"; at two, he is able to use fifty words; by three he begins to66tenses. The famous American linguist Noam Chomsky 67that human beings have a sort of built-in system for language use, and that the 68is only secondary. Children are not taught language69they are taught arithmetic. Other linguists,70,hold the view that a child learns71of his language from the hints in the environment.72, theorists of both schools 73that there is a biological basis for language and language use. The 74is which is more important, the inner ability or the environment. This is certainly a field75 to be explored. Researchers from both schools are busy finding evidence to76their own theory, but77side is persuading the other. It seems that in order to78why a child learns a language so easily, we have to79the joint efforts of both schools.

English proficiency not only improves one's ability to communicate effectively with people from diverse backgrounds but it also enhances critical thinking skills and fosters a broader perspective on global issues. Therefore, students should view the study of English not just as a subject in school, but as a key to unlocking doors to a world of possibilities and opportunities.中文翻译:随着技术的快速发展和世界的不断全球化,英语已经成为几乎所有生活方面的沟通和成功的重要工具。
江苏省专升本英语真题2012年
江苏省专升本英语真题2012年第Ⅰ卷Part Ⅰ Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneDifferent countries and different races have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.We should like to find the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up to wait for his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. It he accidentally bumps into (碰撞) someone, or gets in their way, he says, "Excuse me" or "I'm sorry".He says "Please" when making a request, and "Thank you" when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.1、 According to the passage, a knowledge of the customs of other races ______.A. is very usefulB. is unnecessaryC. is unimportantD. does not mean much2、 A person with good manners think of ______.A. the older before himselfB. himself before othersC. no one but himselfD. his personal interests3、 Which of the following is NOT true? A well-mannered person usually ______.A. says "Please" when making a requestB. makes an apology for bumping into someone accidentallyC. sits where he is when speaking to a ladyD. tries to help those who are in trouble4、 If you want to be well-mannered, ______.A. you laugh at people when they are in troubleB. it's all right to speak with your mouth full of foodC. you should stop someone when he is talkingD. you should speak after someone else has finished talking5、 As different countries have different manners, ______.A. it's unnecessary to learn their mannersB. we should try to find out the differences in the customsC. it should be wrong to go out of one's way to do anythingD. learning a little second language would be helpfulPassage TwoI entered St. Thomas's Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, which I sent to the publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowing the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed; the next play he had arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his wits' end. He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind to follow it with could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.6、 When the author was a medical student, he ______.A. had some trouble with his heartB. was a very good studentC. wanted to be a writer after graduationD. was satisfied with what he was doing at the time7、 When the author wrote his first novel, ______.A. he sent it to a publisher but it was not acceptedB. he was still studying at the medical schoolC. he succeeded in publishing it thought it was not a successD. he had graduated from the medical school8、 The author gave up medicine because at that time ______.A. he thought he could make a living by writingB. he knew the success of the book was naturalC. he knew it was no risk to be a writerD. he was quite rich after the success of his book9、 For the first ten years of his writing career after his graduation, the author earned an average of £100 a year, which was ______.A. a great sumB. a bit of luckC. a small sumD. a moderate success10、 The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the author's play because ______.A. he thought the author was a good playwrightB. he liked the author's plays very muchC. he failed to arrange a new play in timeD. he heard that the author had studied medicine beforePassage ThreeIn the last 500 years, nothing about people—not their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500's. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the "Potato Famine" of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Columbia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the "wide-awake" feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with.11、 According to the passage, ______ has changed the most in the last 500 years.A. foodB. chocolateC. potateD. coffee12、 "Some" in "Some still exist today" (Para. 1) means ______.A. some cocoa treesB. some chocolate drinksC. some shopsD. some South American Indians13、 Thousands of Irish people starved during the "Potato Famine" because ______.A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB. they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD. the potato harvest was bad14、 Coffee originally came from ______.A. BrazilB. ColumbiaC. EthiopiaD. Arabia15、 The Arabic legend is used to prove that ______.A. coffee was first discovered by KaldiB. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi's goatsC. coffee was first discovered in South American countriesD. coffee drinks were first made by ArabsPassage FourAround the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventures—those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at upto 150 kilometres an hour till the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall building and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modem societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people's lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe environment; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping.16、 The best title for the passage would be ______.A. Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB. The Boredom of Modern LifeC. Bungee Jumping: Is It Really DangerousD. The Need for Excitement17、 More and more people today ______.A. are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB. are climbing the highest mountainsC. are coming close to death in sportsD. are exploring unknown places18、 In bungee jumping, you ______.A. jump as high as you canB. slide down a rope to the groundC. attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD. fall towards the ground without a rope19、 People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ______.A. they have a lot of free timeB. they can go to hospital if they are injuredC. their lives lack excitementD. they no longer need to hunt for food20、 The writer of the passage has a ______ attitude towards dangerous sports.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. nervousPart Ⅱ Vocabulary and StructureDirections:There are forty incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence.

They are left in the 61 of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their 62 children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any 63 visitors.The truth is that this idea is an 64 story. In fact, family members provide over 80 percent of the care 65 elderly people need. Samuel Preston, a sociologist, studied 66 the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the 67 American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children. 68 , because people today live longer after an illness than people did years 69 , family members must provide long term care.

(A)an appearance(B)a face(C)an air(D)a color40 It was______of him to leave the classroom when the teacher criticized him.(A)childlike(B)childish(C)childhood(D)childless40 Different countries and different races have different manners. <u>Before enteringa house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes.</u> In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done.A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.<u>We should like to find the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered.</u> But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do. He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up to wait for his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. It he accidentally bumps into(碰撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says, "Excuse me" or"I'm sorry".He says "Please" when making a request, and "Thank you" when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating, he does not speak with his mouth full of food.41 According to the passage, a knowledge of the customs of other races______.(A)is very useful(B)is unnecessary(C)is unimportant(D)does not mean much42 A person with good manners think of______.(A)the older before himself(B)himself before others(C)no one but himself(D)his personal interests43 Which of the following is NOT true? A well-mannered person usually______. (A)says "Please" when making a request(B)makes an apology for bumping into someone accidentally(C)sits where he is when speaking to a lady(D)tries to help those who are in trouble44 If you want to be well-mannered,______.(A)you laugh at people when they are in trouble(B)it's all right to speak with your mouth full of food(C)you should stop someone when he is talking(D)you should speak after someone else has finished talking45 As different countries have different manners, ______.(A)it's unnecessary to learn their manners(B)we should try to find out the differences in the customs(C)it should be wrong to go out of one's way to do anything(D)learning a little second language would be helpful45 I entered St. Thomas's Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, which I sent to the publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowing the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of £ 100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed; the next play he had arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his wits' end. <u>He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind to follow it with could be produced.</u> It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.46 When the author was a medical student, he ______.(A)had some trouble with his heart(B)was a very good student.(C)wanted to be a writer after graduation(D)was satisfied with what he was doing at the time47 When the author wrote his first novel, ______.(A)he sent it to a publisher but it was not accepted(B)he was still studying at the medical school(C)he succeeded in publishing it thought it was not a success(D)he had graduated from the medical school48 The author gave up medicine because at that time______.(A)he thought he could make a living by writing(B)he knew the success of the book was natural(C)he knew it was no risk to be a writer(D)he was quite rich after the success of his book49 For the first ten years of his writing career after his graduation, the author earned an average of £ 100 a year, which was______.(A)a great sum(B)a bit of luck(C)a small sum(D)a moderate success50 The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the author's play because(A)he thought the author was a good playwright(B)he liked the author's plays very much(C)he failed to arrange a new play in time(D)he heard that the author had studied medicine before50 In the last 500 years, nothing about people — not their clothes, ideas, or languages — has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the coca tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500's. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the "Potato Famine" of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. <u>Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries.</u> But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the "wide-awake" feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with.51 According to the passage, ______has changed the most in the last 500 years.(A)Food(B)Clothing(C)Ideology.(D)Language.52 "Some" in "Some still exist today"(Para. 1)means______.(A)some coca trees.(B)some chocolate drinks.(C)some shops.(D)some South American Indians.53 Thousands of Irish people starved during the "Potato Famine" because______. (A)they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything else (B)they were forced to emigrate to America(C)the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potato (D)the potato harvest was bad54 Coffee originally came from______.(A)Brazil(B)Colombia(C)Ethiopia(D)Egypt55 The Arabic legend is used to prove that______.(A)coffee was first discovered by Kaldi(B)coffee was first discovered by Kaldi's goats(C)coffee was first discovered in South American countries(D)coffee drinks were first made by Arabs55 Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventures —those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. <u>Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds</u>.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place(perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon)200 metres above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometres an hour till the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is estimated that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall building and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people's lives were constandy under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in comparatively safe environment; they buy food in shops; and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping.56 The best tide for the passage would be______.(A)Dangerous Sports: What and Why(B)The Boredom of Modern Life(C)Bungee jumping: Is It Really Dangerous?(D)The Need for Excitement57 More and more people today______.(A)are trying activities such as bungee jumping(B)are climbing the highest mountains(C)are coming close to death in sports(D)are exploring unknown places58 In bungee jumping, you______.(A)jump as high as you can(B)slide down a rope to the ground(C)attach yourself to a rope and fall to the ground(D)fall towards the ground without a rope59 People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because______.(A)they have a lot of free time(B)they can go to hospital if they are injured(C)their lives lack excitement(D)they no longer need to hunt for food60 The writer of the passage has a______attitude towards dangerous sports.(A)positive(B)negative(C)neutral(D)nervous二、Cloze60 Many people wrongly believe that when people reach old age, their families place them in nursing homes. They are left in the【C1】______of strangers for the rest of their lives.

It is like bringing the world to your mailbox.Fiona, a member of ,says,''I love swapping postcards!Although it seems quite time-consuming to pick one ,write it and post it ,it is the amusement of receiving a flash of sunshine or humor that makes it worthwhile.''51.The underlined word ''Swapping''in Paragraph 1 means ____ .A.exchangingB.designingC.collectingD.writing52.The first paragraph tells us that ____ .A.postcards are simple and beautifulB.Swapping postcards is a hobby for all peopleC.Swapping postcards can keep pen friends in contactD.Those who swap postcards have lost interest in the real word53.Which of the following is true of ?A.Its members should pay for registrationB.It was created for a particular purposeC.Its members can share different hobbiesD.It was started by a group of citizens54.When will your name be added to the list of people to receive postcards on ?A.After one confirms the reception of your postcard.B.After you e-mail your first postcard.C.After you register on the websiteD.After one receives your address55.In Fiona's eyes,swapping postcards is ____ .A.time-savingbor-savingC.worthwhileD.humorousPassage 3Listening is an extremely complex communicative activity. In order to have a better understanding, to anticipate what is coming is very important.An effective listener should continuously develop more or less specific readiness for what will come next. If a listener hears what he has expected, it will be much easier for him to receive the information.But if what he hears is totally out of his expectation,he will fail to get the message.The skill to anticipate what is coming in listening comprehension depends largely on the listener's familiarity with the theme(主题)of the message.It also depends on the listener's knowledge of the speaker as well as the situation.Obviously, when we listen to something that we already have some information about, it is generally much easier for us to take in the new information .Therefore,pre-listening preparation seems to play an important role in increasing our comprehension .Before actual listening ,we could perhaps first give some thought to the topic ,discuss it with others ,and then read some related material and do some vocabulary work. If we could make ourselves fully prepared for the coming talks or lectures,we are more likely to become effective listeners.Of course,readiness beforehand is not at all enough .Active thinking must take place all the way through .In fact ,we should always try to think ahead of the speaker.56.The passage is most possible taken from ____ .A.a novelB.a textbookC.a news reportD.a fashion magazine57.What is the first paragraph mainly about?A.How to think actively in listening comprehension.B.How to develop specific readiness before listening.C.The skills in anticipating in listening comprehension.D.The importance of anticipating in listening comprehension.58.The skill to anticipate in listening comprehension depends largely on ____ .A.the listener's emotionB.the difficulty of the messageC.the listener's communicative skillsD.The listener's familiarity with the topic59.In order to anticipate ,the first thing to do before actual listening may be ____ .A.do some vocabulary workB.think about the topicC.read some related materialD.discuss the topic with others60.What is the author's attitude towards anticipating in listening comprehension?A.Neutral.B.Positive.C.Negative.D.Critical.Passage 4When men get stick,they act like babies ,say women . But maybe the fairer sex should learn something useful from these guys ----it could save their lives,say researchers at the University of Michigan.When women have a heart attack ,they’re more likely to put off seeking help the men ,and after an attack,they’re less likely to take steps to improve their health . What’s the reason for the different responses? The results of a survey suggest that women are too tough; they think heart problem are simply not a big deal . When Steven Erickson and his colleagues asked 348 men and 142 women who had been admitted to the hospital for a heart attack about their symptoms and medication (用药情况),they found that even though the women had more symptoms and were taking more medicine they rated their disease as being no more severe than the men did .For more on women and heart disease ,go to .61.The underlined expression "the fairer sex" in Paragraph 1 refers to ____ .A. menB. babiesC. womenD.researchers62.

Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题, 每小题2分, 共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Different countries and different races have different manners. Before entering a house in some Asian countries, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, even though shoes sometimes become very muddy, this is not done. A guest in a Chinese house sometimes does not finish a drink. He leaves a little, to show that he has had enough. In a Malay house, too, a guest always leaves a little food. In England, a guest always finishes a drink to show that he enjoys it.We should like to find out the customs of other races, so that they will not think us ill-mannered. But people all over the world agree that being well-mannered really means being kind and helping others, especially those older or weaker than ourselves. If you remember this, you will not go very far wrong.Here are some examples of the things that a well-mannered person does or does not do.He never laughs at people when they are in trouble. He is always kind either to people or to animals. When people are waiting for a bus, or in a post office, he lines up to wait his turn. In the bus, he gives his seat to an older person or a lady who is standing. If he accidentally bumps into(碰撞)someone, or gets in their way, he says“Excuse me“ or“I’m sorry”.He says“Please”when making a request, and“Thank you”when he receives something. He stands up when speaking to a lady or an older person, and he does not sit down until the other person is seated. He does not talk too much about himself. When eating,he does not speak with his mouth full of food.1. According to the passage, a knowledge of the customs of other races ____.A. is very usefulB. is unnecessaryC. is unimportantD. does not mean much2. A person with good manners thinks of ____.A. the older before himselfB. himself before othersC. no one but himselfD. his personal interests3. Which of the following is NOT true? A well-mannered person usually ____.A. says“Please”when making a requestB. makes an apology for bumping into someone accidentallyC. sits where he is when speaking to a ladyD. tries to help those who are in trouble4. If you want to be well-mannered, ____.A. you laugh at people when they are in troubleB. it’s all right to speak with your mouth full of foodC. you should stop someone when he is talkingD. you should speak after someone else has finished talking5. As different countries have different manners, ____.A. it’s unnecessary to learn their mannersB. we should try to find out the differences in the customsC. it should be wrong to go out of one’s way to do anythingD. learning a little language would be helpfulPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.I entered St. Thomas’s Hospital as a medical student at the age of 18 and spent five years there. I was an unsatisfactory student, for my heart was not in it. I had always wanted to be a writer, and in the evenings, after my tea, I wrote and read. Before long, I wrote a novel, called Liza of Lambeth, which I sent to a publisher and was accepted. It appeared during my last year at the hospital and had something of a success. I felt I could afford to give up medicine and make writing my profession; so, three days after I graduated from the school of medicine, I set out for Spain to write another book. Looking back now, and knowing the terrible difficulties of making a living by writing, I realize I was taking a fearful risk.The next ten years were very hard, and I earned an average of£100 a year. Then I had a bit of luck. The manager of the Court Theatre put on a play that failed; the next play he arranged to put on was not ready, and he was at his wit’s end.He read a play of mine and, though he did not much like it, he thought it might just run for the six weeks till the play he had in mind could be produced. It ran for fifteen months. Within a short while, I had four plays running in London at the same time. Nothing of the kind had ever happened before. I was the talk of the town.6. When the author was a medical student, he ____.A. had some trouble with his heartB. was a very good studentC. wanted to be a writer after graduationD. was satisfied with what he was doing at the time7. When the author wrote his first novel, ____.A. he sent it to a publisher but it was not acceptedB. he was still studying at the medical schoolC. he succeeded in publishing it though it was not a successD. he had graduated from the medical school8. The author gave up medicine because at that time ____.A. he thought he could make a living by writingB. he knew the success of the book was naturalC. he knew it was no risk to be a writerD. he was quite rich alter the success of his book9. For the first ten years of his writing career after his graduation, the author earned an average of £100 a year, which was ____.A. a great sumB. a bit of luckC. a small sumD. a moderate success10. The manager of the Court Theatre agreed to put on the author’s play because ____.A. he thought the author was a good playwrightB. he liked the author’s plays very muchC. he tailed to arrange a new play in timeD. he heard that the author had studied medicine beforePassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.In the last 500 years, nothing about people---not their clothes, ideas, or languages---has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it fromPeru to Europe, where it was soon widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine” of 1845-46, and thousands more were forced to emigrate to America. There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world's largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400's.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered by a goatherd named Kaldi. He noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world's population now starts the day with.11. According to the passage, ____ has changed the most in the last 500 years.A. FoodB. ChocolateC. PotatoD. Coffee12. “Some” in “Some still exist today” (Para. 1) means ____ .A. some cocoa treesB. some chocolate drinksC. some shopsD. some South American Indians13. Thousands of Irish people starved during the“Potato Famine”because ____.A. they were so dependent on the potato that they refused to eat anything elseB. they were forced to emigrate to AmericaC. the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing the potatoD. the potato harvest was bad14. Coffee originally came from ____ .A. BrazilB. ColombiaC. EthiopiaD. Arabia.15. The Arabic legend is used to prove that ____ .A. coffee was first discovered by KaldiB. coffee was first discovered by Kaldi’s goatsC. coffee was first discovered in South American countriesD. coffee drinks were first made by ArabsPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Around the world more and more people are taking part in dangerous sports and activities. Of course, there have always been people who have looked for adventure——those who have climbed the highest mountains, explored unknown parts of the world or sailed in small boats across the greatest oceans. Now, however, there are people who seek an immediate thrill from a risky activity which may only last a few minutes or even seconds.I would consider bungee jumping to be a good example of such an activity. You jump from a high place (perhaps a bridge or a hot-air balloon) 200 meters above the ground with an elastic rope tied to your ankles. You fall at up to 150 kilometers an hour until the rope stops you from hitting the ground. It is said that about 2 million people around the world have now tried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping from tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliffs. Why do people take part in such activities as these? Some psychologists suggest that it is because life in modern societies has become safe and boring. Not very long ago, people’s lives were constantly under threat. They had to go out and hunt for food, diseases could not easily be cured, and life was a continuous battle for survival.Nowadays, according to many people, life offers little excitement. They live and work in a comparatively safe environment, they buy food in shops, and there are doctors and hospitals to look after them if they become ill. The answer for some of these people is to seek danger in activities such as bungee jumping.16. The best title for the passage would be ____.A. Dangerous Sports:What and WhyB. The Boredom of Modern LifeC. Bungee Jumping:Is It Really Dangerous?D. The Need for Excitement17. More and more people today ____.A. are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB. are climbing the highest mountainsC. are coming close to death in sportsD. are exploring unknown places18. In bungee jumping, you ____.A. jump as high as you canB. slide down a rope to the groundC. attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD. fall towards the ground without a rope1 9. People probably take part in dangerous sports nowadays because ____.A. they have a lot of free timeB. they can go to hospital if they are injuredC. their lives lack excitementD. they no longer need to hunt for food20. The writer of the passage has a ____ attitude towards dangerous sports.A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. nervousPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题, 每小题1分, 共40分)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
