If you do, you must be an optimist(乐观主义者). a leader. an acive person who enjoys life. people and excitement. Do you prefer greys and blues? Then you are probably quict. shy. and you would rather follow than lead You tend to be a pessimist (悲观主义者) . At least. this is what psychologists tell us. and they should know. because they have been seriously studying the meaning of colours preference, as well as the effect that colours have on human beings. They tell us. among other facts. that we do not choose our favourite clour as we growup-we are born with our preference. 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.Colours do influence our moods------there is no doubt about it. A yellow room makes mostpeople feel more cheerful and more relaxed 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. A black bridge over the Thames River. Near London. used to be the scene of more suicides (自杀) than any other bridge in the area-until it was repainted green. The number of suicide attempts immediately fell down sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.Light and bright colours make people not only happier but more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better. harder. and have fewcr accidents when their machines arc painted orange rather than black or grey.36. The sentence "You would rather follow than lead" in paragraph l means that you would .A. like to lead followersB. be afraid of following othersC. be a member rather than a leaderD. like to be a leader rather than a follower37. If one enjoys life, one is sure to prefer .A. red to yellowB. blue to orangeC. blue to yellowD. red to grey38. Which of the following statements is true?A. People's preference of one colour to another is instinct.B. People's preference of one colour to another is acquired as they grow up.C. Factory workers meet fewer accidents when their machines are painted grey.D. More people happen to love brown because they saw it when they were born.39. Those who committed suicide preferred the bridge over the Thames River to others because of itsA. shapeB. colourC. structureD. materials40. The main idea of the passage is that_ .A. colours affect people's moodB. colours affect people's characterC. bright colours make people more activeD. colours preference shows people's couragePassage 2Charlotte Hollins knows she faces a battle. The 23-year-old British farmer and her 21-year-old brother Ben are fighting to save the farm from the city developers that their father worked on since he was 14. While she is confident they will succeed. she lists farming's many challenges: "You don't often get a day off. Supermarkets put a lot of pressure on farmers to keep prices down. With fewer people working on farms it can be isolating." she said. "There is a high rate of suicide and farming will never make you rich!"Oliver Robinson. 25, grew up on a farm in Yorkshire. But he never considered staying on his father and grandfather's land. "I'm sure Dan hoped I'd stay," he said. "I guess it's a nice, straightforward life, but it doesn't appeal. For young ambitious people, farm life would be a hard world." For Robinson. farming doesn't offer much in terms of money or lifestyle. Hollins agrees that economics stops people from pursuing farming rewards: "providing for a vital human need . while working outdoors with nature."Farming is a big political issue in the UK. "Buy British" campaigns encourage consumers not a buy cheaper imported foods. The 2001 "foot and mouth crisis" closed thousands of farms, stopped meat exports, and raised public consciousness of troubles in British farming. JamieOliver's 2005 campaign to get children to eat healthily also highlighted the issue. This national concern brings hope for farmers competing with powerful supermarkets. While most people buy food from the big supermarkets. hundreds of independent Farmers' Markets are becoming popular.41 . Charlotte Hollins is talking about her feeling of a battle between "A. the poor and the richB. farmers and city developersC. young people and their parentsD. small markets and supermarkets42. In the eyes of Charlotte Hollins. makes fewer people work on farms.A. rich life of farmersB. a low rate of suicideC. hard life on the farmsD. high prices of farm products43. According to the passage, more and more young people leave their fathers' land because farming cannot offer .A. a hard worldB. a vital human needC. a nice and straightforward lifeD. enough money and honourable life44. "Buy British" campaigns____A. bring benefit to farmersB. stopped meat exportC. closed thousands of farmsD. ask children to eat British foods45. According to the passage, Farmers ' Markets are becoming popular because .A. thousands of farms are closedB. farmers are the owners of the marketsC. more people are concerned about healthy foodD. Jamie Oliver's 2005 campaigns urge people to "Buy BritisW'Passage 3No one knows exactly how many disabled people (残疾人) there arc in the word. but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada.In the United Kingdom. about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something hat happens to other people: as we get older. many of us will become less mobile. hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on. the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people's attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through. so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability. not their disability, which counts.46. The first paragraph tells us that .A. the number of disabled people in India is the greatestB. there are less than 450 million disabled people in the worldC. there are more than 450 million disabled people in the worldD. the number of disabled people in India is equal to the total population of Canada47. The key word in paragraph 4 is _A. disabilityB. ignoranceC. prejudiceD. barriers48. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. There are about 10 percent disabled people in the UK_B. There still exists prejudice against the disabled because of ignorance.C. Even the able-bodied might lose some of their body functions when they get older.D. The whole society should pay attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people.49. The clause "which counts " in the last paragraph means that _ .A. ability is the most importantB. disability is consideredC. disability is includedD. barrier is the most important50. It can be concluded from the passage that _A. we should try our best to prevent disablementB. we should take a proper attitude towards the disabledC. both physical and mental barriers are hard to break downD. the able-bodied will never fully understand the disabledPassage 4It is really a surprise that after hundreds of years, educationists have still failed to design anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. It is claimed that examinations test what you know, but it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the skills of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person's true ability.As anxiety-makers. examinations are second to none. That is because so much depends on them. They are the mark of success or failure in our society. Your whole future may be decided in one fateful day. No one can show his best in worry, or after a sleepless night, yet this is precisely what the examination system expects him to do.A good education should, among other things, train you to think for yourself. The examination system however, does anything but that. What has to be learnt is laid down by a syllabus (教学大纲) . so the student is encouraged to memorize. Examinations do not motivate a student to read widely, and they do not enable him to seek more and more knowledge. Furthermore. teachers themselves are often judged by the results of their students' examinations. Consequently, they have to train their students to master exam techniques which they dislike. They most successful candidates are not always the best educated but the best trained..The results on which so much depends are often nothing more than a subjective assessment by some anonymous (匿名的) examiners. They certainly make mistakes. because they have to mark mountains of scripts (答卷) in a limited amount of time. They work under the same sort of pressure as the candidates.51. The main idea of this passage is that examinations are .A. anxiety-makersB. harmful to educationC. reliable and efficientD. good measures of memory52. It is clear that the author examinations.A. argues forB. argues againstC. is interested inD. is indifferent to53. The fate of students is decided by _ according to the passage.A. examinationB. educationC. teachingD. learning54. According to the author, the most importance of a good education is to .A. encourage students to read widelyB..teach students how to tackle examsC. train students to think on their ownD. encourage students to seek more knowledge55. Which statement is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Examinations can make students anxious.B. The examiners might make mistakes in marking.C. Teachers ' work is .judged based on the results of examinations.D. Tools better than examinations to test students' ability have been found.Part III Cloze (10%)When I come across a good article in reading newspapers. I often want to cut and keep it. But just as I am about to do so I find the 56 0n the opposite side is as much interesting. It may be a discussion of the way to 57 in good health. or a report about 58 to behave and conduct oneself in society. If I cut the front article, the opposite one is likely t0 59 damage, leaving out half of it or keeping the text 60 the title. Therefore. I should prepare 61 I start to cut. Or it will be halfway done when I find out the 62 result.63 two things are to be done at the same time. You can only take up one of them,the other has to wait or be 64 _ But you know the future is unpredictable----the changed situation may not allow you to do what is left 65 . Thus you are caught in a 66 position and feel sad. How should the nice chances and brilliant ideas gather around all at once? What are you going to do when you 67 two things at the same time? It may happen that you life 68 greatly on your preference of one choice to the other.In fact that is what 69 is like. We are often . 70 with the two opposite sides of a thing which are both desirable 71 a newspaper cutting. It often occurs that our attention is drawn to one thing only 72 we get into another. The 73 may be more important than the latter and give rise to a dividcd mind. A famous philosopher 74 said "When one door shuts, another opens in life." So a casual choice may not be a 75 0ne.56.A. newspaper B. article C. text D. title57.A. get B. bring C. lead D. keep58.A. how B. when C. why D. what59.A. do B. reduce C. prevent D. cause60.A. on B. in C. off D. for61.A. because B. since C. after D. before62.A. satisfying B. regretful C. pleasant D. impossible63.A.

The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation.It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations into the world’s last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the world’s peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life.Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survive the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that?Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism(mastery of two languages). Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres---at home, among friends, in community settings---and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, manysmall languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alongside global languages, rather than yield to the homogenizing(同化的)forces of globalization.Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day permit minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computer—aided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient(有活力的),however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous(原生的,土著的)communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through language.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in __________.A.an increasingly interconnected worldB.maintaining small numbers of speakersC.relatively isolated language communitiesD.following the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in the future is _______.A.uncertain B.unrealistic C.foreseeable D.definite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_________.A.small languages become acceptable in work placesB.homogenize the world’s languages and culturesC.global languages reach home and community settingsD.speakers maintain their linguistic and cultural identityputer technology is helpful for preserving minority languages in that it_________.A.makes learning a global language unnecessaryB.facilitates the learning and using of those languagesC.raises public awareness of saving those languagesD.makes it easier for linguists to study those languages45.In the author’s view, many endangered languages are________.A.remarkably well-kept in this modern worldB.exceptionally powerful tools of communicationC.quite possible to be revived instead of dying outD.a unique way of bringing different groups togetherPassage TwoEveryone,it seems,has a health problem。

专转本大学英语第I卷(共100分)Part I Reading Comprehension (共40分)(18分)Passage one(12分钟)Under proper conditions, sound waves will be reflected from a hillside or other such obstruction. Sound travels at the rate of about one-fifth of mile per second. If the hill is eleven hundred feet away, it takes two seconds for the sound to travel o the hill and back. Thus, by timing the interval between a sound and its reflection (the echo), you can estimate the distance to an obstruction.During word war 2 the British used a practical application of this principle to detect German planes on their way to bomb London long before the enemy was near the target. They used radio waves instead of sound waves, since radio waves can penetrate fog and clouds. The outnumbered Royal Air Force (RAF) always seemed to the puzzled Germans to be lying in wait at the right time and never to be surprised. It was radio echoes more than anything else that won the Battle of Britain.Since the radio waves were used to tell the direction in which to send the RAF planes and the distance to send them (their range of flight, in other words), the device was called radio directing and ranging, and from the initials the word radar was coined.1. Sound waves reflected from a hill can be used to estimate the .A. heigt of the hillB. speed of soundC. distance to the hillD. intensite of sound2. Practical applications of this principles resulted in .A. New electronic instruments for planesB. A radio directing and ranging deviceC. New radio sets for RAF bombersD. An electronic detecting device3. Radar enabled the English to .A. Detect German planes on their way to LondonB. Direct the outnumbered RAF planes effectivelyC. Confuse German bomber pilotsD. Both A and B4.It can be inferred from the passage that1A. Light waves could be used in a device similar to radarB. Radar was a practical application of a well-known principleC. Radar greatly increased the effectiveness of the Royal Air ForceD. Sound waves are reflected from a hillside under all conditions5. The author of this passage probably intended to explainA. Exactly how radar worksB. Why the British used radio waves in their deviceC. How radar (work and device) came to beD. How radar helped the British win the Battle of BritainPassage Two accident(意外,事件)In general, the ancientRomans were a practical people. They cared less about philosophy and pure mathematics than did the Greeks. The Romans were the best of the ancient engineers and architects. They were brilliant students of Greek geometry and trigonometry (三角学) , and they applied their knowledge to the construction of fine bridges, roads, aqueducts (渠道) , and public buildings.They knew about the smelting of ironore, but they used the iron they produced mainly for spears, swords, and shields, rather than for building construction.While the Romans accomplished practical wonders, they did very little theoretical scientific thinking. Because of their frequent wars, many of their inventions were no more than improvements in the design of Greek weapons with which they were familiar.There are two reasons for the Romans neglect of philosophy and pure mathematics. First, they were apparently too busy conquering nearby nations and forming them into a rapidly growing empire to waste time on abstract thinking. Secondly, they were handicapped (妨碍) by the rigidity of their numerical system. (Try to multiply XI by LVII or to divide CXLIII by IX; it simply cannot be done with pencil and paper.) The Romans did all of their arithmetic on an abacus, the ancient counterpart of the modern computing machine. Their number system discouraged the study of pure mathematics.6. The author calls the Romans “practical” because theyA. Cared little about philosophyB. Applied their knowledge to constructionC. Saw the necessity for developing theoretical scienceD. Studied the past and learned from it7.The ancient Romans did not concern themselves with2A. Theoretical or abstract thoughtB. applied mathematicsC. StudyingD. either A or C8.In construction, the Romans made extensive use ofA. Iron oreB. geometry and trigonometryC. StudyingD. both B and C9.Many Romans inventions were based on Greek weapons because theA. Greeks had superior weaponsB romines were involved in frequent warsC. Romans were not familiar with many types of weaponsD. Greek proved himself or herself inspired inventor10.The author of this passage probably wanted to explain why AA. He considers the Romans a practical peopleB. Roman were involved in frequent warsC. Theoretical thinking is necessary fir the growth of a nationD. The Romans contributed little to philosophical thought11. the pew study was conducted in C (A)Passage ThreeProfessor Barry Wellman if University of Toronto in Canada has invented a term to describe the way many North Americans interacts these days. The term to have opposite meanings. How can we be individuals and be networked at the same time? You need other people for networks.Here is what Professor Wellman means. Before the invention of the Internet and e-mail, our social networks involved live interactions with relatives, neighbors, and colleagues at work. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice, person to person, in real time.A recent research study by the Pew Internet and Americans Life Project showed that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced this person-to-person interaction. However, a lot of people interviewed for the Pew study say that’s a good thing. Why?In the past, many people were worried that the Internet isolated us and caused us to spend too much time in the imaginary world of the computer. But the Pew study discovered that the opposite is true. The Internet connects us with MORE real people than expected-helpful-people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americantold Pew that the Internet plays an important role in helping them major life decisions.3Thanks to the computer. “networked individuals” are able to be alone and together with other people-at the same time!A. the United StatesB. CanadaC. the U.S. and CanadaD. Europe12. in the article, a network is a group of connected CA. radio or TV stationsB. peopleC. computersD. roads13. before the invention of the Internet, our connections with people tool place mainly D (A)A. in personB. by phoneC. by letterD. by e-mail14. Which of the following has happened since the invention of the Internet and email? BA. people are talking on the phone more than ever.B. Interaction through the computer has replaced a lot of person to person interaction.C. Americans are turning into hermits.D. Sixty million Americans have bought computers.15. Which of the following was NOT one of the discoveries of Pew study? DA. The Internet has put us in touch with more people than expected.B. People use the Internet to get advice on careers, medical problems, and othe r questions.C. For many Americans, the Internet plays an important role in helping them make important decisions.D. “Internet addiction” is a growing problem among people who use computers.Passage fourSummers with father were always enjoyable. Swimming, hiking, boating, fishing-the days were not long enough to contain all of activities. There never seemed to be enough time to go to church, which disturbed some friends and relations. Accused of neglecting this part of our education, my father instituted a summer school for my brother and me. However, his summer course included ancient history, which Papa felt our schools neglected, and navigation, in which we first had a formal examination in the dining room, part of which consisted of tying several knots in a given time limit. Then we were each separately sent on what was grandly referred to as a cruise in my father’s 18-foot knockabout, spending the night on board, and loaded down, according to formally plot our course, using the tide table, even though our goal was an island I could see quite clearly across the water in the distance.416.

A 300-pound adult Siberian tiger escaped from its four-meter high chain-link pen(圈)at the Toronto Zoo yesterday,on one of the busiest days of the year.Though no one was hurt, the dangerous animal was separated from the public for a time by nothing more than a four-foot fence. The escape occurred after one of the animal's handlers left the pen gate open. It prompted a swift response from officials. Staff were sent immediately to arrest the runaway tiger.General Manager Calvin White told reporters that staff were preparing for the worst. "I ordered a tranquilizer(麻醉剂)gun so we would have tranquilized her, but thankfully we didn't have to," Mr. White said. The tiger was successfully led back into its cage after the brief escape.The incident occurred during the Toronto Zoo's 28(上标)th annual Christmas Treats Walk, where admission is free in return for donations of food that does not easily go bad.Thousands of people attend each Boxing Day to see the animals fed by their handlers.36. The tiger escape happened______.A. owing to the lack of foodB. due to its separation from the publicC. because of the handler's neglect of dutyD. as a result of the damaged chain and fence37.

The Best title for the news report is______.A. Pen—Animal PrisonB. Zoo Tiger—Wandering FreeC. Siberian Tiger—Dangerous AnimalD. Zoo—Dangerous SitePassage TwoOne day in January, my uncle, my cousin and I decided to go hunting. We left by car in the afternoon. It was a Range Rover with four-wheel drive. It took us three hours to get there. After we arrived at 5:15 p. m. , we fixed the tent, then made coffee and had a short rest. After that, we went hunting, using a falcon(猎鹰). We spent two hours without finding anything. On our way back to the camp, my cousin saw a rabbit. I removed the falcon's head cover and let go of the aggressive falcon. When the rabbit saw the falcon, it ran fast, but my falcon was a professional hunter. He flew up and came down to trick the rabbit. After two minutes, the rabbit was caught. We took it back to the camp to cook our dinner. We ate the delicious food, drank Arabic coffee, and sat around the fire talking until 10:30 p. m.We left the camp the next day at 7 o'clock in the morning. We went north. However, around 10. 00 a. m., our car got stuck in the sand! We spent about three hours trying to pull out the car without any progress. Finally, we decided to walk. As it was hard for an old man or a young boy to walk more than 40 km in the desert, I decided to get help myself. I took a bottle of water with me and started to walk south alone. I knew the way well, but it was a long way in the sand. 1 walked more than four hours without stopping. When I felt so tired and thirsty, I stopped to rest. I drank all the water and slept for around two hours.When I got up, it was dark. I continued to walk south. I was worried about my uncle and cousin. Suddenly, I met a Bedouin man who was riding his camel. He took me to his house. When I had had enough rest, I asked him to take me to the road where I found a car. It took me to the city to get help. I had one day to get back to my uncle and cousin. When I got back to them, they were so happy because I had gotten help and they were able to see me again.40. Which word can best describe the first evening of their hunting trip?A. Disappointed.B. Enjoyable.C. Comfortable.D. Exhausted.41. Why didn't the three walk back together after the car got stuck in the sand?A. They didn't have enough food and water.B. The writer knew where to get a camel or a car.C. The writer knew a Bedouin who lived nearby would give help.D. The long desert walk was too hard for the young and the old.42. How did the writer finally get out of the desert?A. He was picked up by a car.B. A camel took him to the road.C. A passer-by Bedouin helped him.D. His uncle and cousin found and rescued him.43. What can be inferred from the story?A. It's an easy job to walk 40 km in the desert.B. The author loved to go hunting with his family.C. The hunting trip is much longer than expected.D. To hunt in the desert one must train a falcon well.Passage ThreeThere's a professor at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to describe the way a lot of North Americans interact these days. And now a big research study confirms it.Professor Barry Wellman's term is "networked individualism". It's not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need other people for network.Here's what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social network involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in reallife.But the latest study confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social activities and person-to-person interaction. Some people worry that the Internet is turning us into isolated people who shut out other people in favor of a false world on computer screens.To the contrary, the study discovered that the Internet connects us with more real people than expected—helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told the researcher that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: we're keeping more to ourselves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!44. The term "networked individualism" is used to refer to______.A. the way that modem people communicate on the InternetB. a social activity popular with North AmericansC. the contradiction within network communicationD. a newly invented Internet software45. With the wide use of Internet, some people fear that______.A. people will become isolatedB. interpersonal relation will disappearC. people will be controlled by networkD. there will be too many social activities46. According to the latest research, electronic interaction through computer is______.A. highly rewardingB. a waste of timeC. only informativeD. an escape from social life47. Why does the writer say networked individuals are tricky?A. Because they sometimes play tricks on people.B. Because they refuse person-to-person communication.C. Because they can stay alone while remaining sociable.D. Because they feel puzzled when communicating with each other.Passage Four"I love you, Bob." "I love you, too, Nancy." It was 2 a.m. and I was hearing my parents' voices through the thin wall separating my bedroom from theirs. Their loving words were sweet, touching— and surprising.My parents married on September 14,1940, alter a brief dating. She was nearly 30 and knew it was time to 'start a family. The handsome, well-educated man wh0 came by the, office where she worked looked like a good bet. He was attracted by her figure, her blue eyes. The romance didn't last long.Seeds of difference grew almost immediately. She liked to travel; he hated the thought. He loved golf; she did not. He was a Republican, she a loyal Democrat. They fought at the bridge table, at the dinner table, over money, over the perceived shortcomings of their respective in-laws.There was a hope that they would change once they retired, and the angry winds did calm somewhat, but what remained changed itself into bright, hard bitterness. "I always thought we'd..." my mother would begin, before launching into a precise listing of my father's faults. The complaints were recited so often, I can repeat them by heart today. As he listened, my father would say angry threats and curses in a low voice.It wasn't the happiest marriage, but as their 602 anniversary(纪念日)approached, my sister and I decided to throw a party. Sixty years was a long time, after alit why not try to make the best of things? We'd provide the cake, the balloons, the toasts, and they'd follow one rule: no fighting.The agreement was honored. We had a wonderful day. When we thought back, we found it was an important celebration, because soon after, things began to change for my parents.48. Bob married Nancy because of______.A. her nice appearanceB. her good educationC. her romantic natureD. her position as an office girl49. When the writer told the story, the mother was probably ______years old.A. 60B. 70C. 80D. 9050. What do we know about the writer's parents?A. Their marriage is a total failure.B. They had different hobbies.C. They had serious money problerm.D. They stopped quarrelling after they had children.51. The purpose {or the writer to hold the party is______.A. to recall the 60 years' marriage life of her parentsB. to stop the long fighting between her parentsC. just to celebrate her parents'60th anniversaryD. to have a good time for family's reunionPassage FiveWhat can you do to recall your dreams more often and interpret them more Clearly? The experts offer these suggestions: Develop an idea. Before you go to sleep, consciously think about a topic or a person you'd like to dream about. Raise a question that's troubling you and see how your dream responds to it.Keep track. Next to your bed, place a pen and some paper, or a tape recorder or laptop(笔记本电脑) ,to record your dreams as soon as you wake up.Try to wake up naturally, without the help of an alarm clock or barking dog that can interrupt your dream cycle. If your schedule doesn't allow you to sleep in during the week, begin your dream journey on a weekend or during a vacation.Wake up slowly. For the first moment after you wake up, lie still and keep your eyes closed, because your dream may be connected to your body position while you slept. Try to recall the dream and then store it in your memory by giving it a name like "Late for an Exam" or "My Date with Ashley Judd." When you rise, immediately write down as many images, feelings and impressions as you can.Connect the dots. To better interpret your dreams, try to make connections between your recalled dreams and recent events. Do you recognize people from the present or past? Can you detect any themes from the dream? Look for patterns over several dreams that might help explain an individual dream.Change the outcome, If you have nightmares happening again and again that make it difficult to sleep, try to change the endings. Once you wake up from a bad dream, imagine a change in the action to create a more positive outcome. If you are trapped, try to fly. In your dream, you can do what you want !52. The passage advices you to "wake up slowly"______.A. because dreaming usually happens not long before you wake upB. because sleeping posture may be related to your dreamC. so as not to connect your dreamsD. so as not to have a nightmare53. The underlined word "rise" (Paragraph 5)means“______”.A. come upB. stand upC. wake upD. get up54. According to the passage, how can you overcome a nightmare?A. Try to imagine you are a superman.B.

Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters (毛衣).Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except thefact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous,if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then thepeople who follow the example are putting their lives in danger. They are like sheep being led tothe slaughter (屠宰).Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life.In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong.You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, butdon’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No.” Develop your own standards and your own judgments. Ifyou know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bow out gracefully. You’ll have the sat isfaction of standing on your own two feet.36.The main idea of this passage is that ______.A.in every school there is a “top” crowd that sets paceB.it is a mistake to follow the “top” crowd blindlyC.at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrongD.people who follow the “top” crowd are putting their lives in danger37.The author disapproves of wearing red sweaters if ______.A.the crowd is wearing themB.one can’t afford themC.one doesn’t look good in redD.it is against school rules38.People who follow the “top” crowd blindly ______.A.are rebels (叛逆者)without a causeB.have no respect for their parentsC.are good-for-nothingsD.sometimes dothings against their better judgment39.The underlined phrase “to bow out” may probably mean ______.A.not to take partB.to make an excuseC.to feel sorryD.to beashamed40.The author urges the reader to ______.A.follow the crowdB.ta ke the advice from the “top” crowdC.be independentD.do whatever he wantsPassage 2The fact that everybody enjoys a good mystery explains why magicians are such popular entertainers. We all know that a magician does not really depend on “magic” to perf orm his tricks,but on his ability to act at great speed. However, this does not prevent us from enjoying watchinga magician produce rabbits from a hat, swallow countless eggs, or saw(锯)his wife in two.Probably the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini who died in 1926. His realname was Enrich Weiss, but he adopted the name “Houdini” after reading a book which influenced him greatly. This had been written by a famous magician called Robert Houdini.Houdini mastered the art of escaping. He could free himself from the tightest knots (最牢固的结)or the most difficult locks in seconds. Although no one really knows how he did this, there isno doubt that he had made a close study of every type of lock ever invented. He would carry a small steel needle-like tool fastened to his leg and he used this instead of a key.Houdini once asked the Chicago police to lock him in prison. They bound him in chains and locked him up, but he freed himself in an instant. The police accused him of having used a tool and locked him up again. This time he wore no clothes and there were chains round his neck, waist, wrists(手腕),and legs; but he again escaped in a few minutes. Houdini had probably hidden his “needle” in a wax-like substance and dropped it on the floor in the passage(过道).As he went past, he stepped on it so that it so that it stuck to (粘在)the bottom of his foot. His most famous escape, however, was altogether astonishing. He was heavily chained up and shut in an empty wooden box the lid of which was nailed down. The box was dropped into the sea in New York harbor. In one minute Houdini had swum to the surface. When the box was brought up, it was opened and the chains were found inside.41. Magicians’ successful tricks mostly depend on the fact that they can ______.A.create any animals mysteriouslyB.eat a lot of eggsC.cut their wives in twoD.perform tricks quickly42. Enrich Weiss used the name Harry Houdini because ______.A. his father had this as his family nameB. he respected another magician Robert Houdini very muchC. he got the name because of his successD. he learned his art from Robert Houdini and was named after him43. Harry Houdini’s best art was perhaps that ______.A. he could use a steel needle-like tool instead of a keyB. he could invent all kinds of knots and locks in a minuteC. he could free himself quickly while bound or locked upD. he made a close study of all types of lock44. Harry Houdini was once locked in prison, being bound in chains, as ______.A. he was accused of crimes and was arrested by police in ChicagoB. he wanted to show to the police how skillful he was at escapingC. the police wanted to know whether their prison was secureD. the police wanted to see whether he could escape with nothing on45. The best title of this passage might be ______.A. Harry Houdini, the Great MagicianB. The History of MagiciansC. Why People Like Magicians So MuchD. How Magicians WorkPassage 3I lose so many things that I was sure they just get up and walk. Perhaps I have never admitted it—even to myself, but I am extremely jealous of people who are so orderly that they never lose anything. Most of my friends always seem to have a place for everything and everything is in its place. I hate comparing myself with them. They have special cupboards for tools, hooks to hang things on and drawers to put things in . It is quite impossible for me to compete.Some things have a terrible habit of disappearing the moment I need them. Pencils and ballpoint pens are never anywhere near the telephone when it rings, no matter how much care Itake. Screw-drivers and tin-openers always manage to walk into the garden and, as a result, screws remain loose, and tins remain unopened. Boxes of matches move under the radio, and needles disappear every time I want to sew a button on a shirt.The situation was getting so much out of control that I decided to organize myself. I had a large cupboard put into the kitchen. On the shelves I neatly arranged a number of boxes and tins, the contents of which I clearly printed in ink on the outside. I had one box for pins, another for nails, and a special place for screw-drivers. There was a new address book in one corner so that I could make a note of telephone numbers and addresses. Before this I had always written addresses on bits of paper——which I quickly lost. Soon everything was tidily arranged in its place, from pairs of scissors to cakes of soap and spare lamps. Having made such a sincere attempt to prevent things from running away, I felt very proud of myself. But it was not long before the matches disappeared and the hammer decided to hide itself in the waste-paper basket. I soon got my revenge, however. I had a lock fitted to the cupboard and thus made sure that nothing could escape. This was an admirable solution——until I lost the key to the cupboard.46. This passage is something written to ______.A. tell readers a jokeB. complain about his toolsC. teach readers some tricksD. criticize himself humorously47. The author loses so many things because ______.A. the things can really get up and walkB. other people never lose anythingC. he doesn’t have special cupboards for toolsD. he can not organize himself well48. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The author’s things will e scape when they are needed.B. When the author needs to take notes, he can’t find his pencils.C. You can often find screw-drivers and tin-openers in the kitchen.D. Boxes of matches often stay where they should not be.49. After the author decided to improve the situation, he did everything below except that ______.A. he had different boxes for different toolsB. he put some boxes and tins on the shelvesC. he wrote telephone numbers and addresses on paper piecesD. he had a large cupboard put in the kitchen50. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Ever since his new arrangement, everything was brought under control.B. The offorts he made turned out to be a failure.C. He had a lock fitted to the cupboard, which proved to be an effective measure.D. He was very proud of himself for his clever measure.Passage 4While the history of technology can be traced along many lines, one of the most intriguing (引人入胜的)development is that photo technology, the technology of light. From the prehistoric invention of fire to laser beams (激光束)and fiber optics (光纤), light has “continually occupied the minds of inventors.” Their inventions fall into two groups: the use of light to aid vision and, more interestingly, the use of light for purposes of communication.The use of light for communication is one of the major directions that technology has taken ever since the middle of the nineteenth century. From still (静态的)photography to movies to television (with a development from black-and-white to color imagery in each), photo technology has had a great effect upon mass communication and mass education. Unlike the printed word, visual images have more impact because they are more immediate: They copy reality in a way that the printed word cannot. Unlike letter shapes, they are not abstract; unlike words, they require no symbolic interpretation by the mind. Combined with the widespread and uniform spreading of such images, phototechnology affects the thinking of vast audiences and shapes their view of reality.As the number of commercially available television channels grows, the viewer’s freedom of choice increases, but so does the burden of that choice.51. It can be learned about the technology of light from the first paragraph that ________.A. its mere practical use is to enable people to see wellB. it achieved a remarkable development in the early nineteenth centuryC. its development is related to the study of the history of technologyD. is has aroused the interest of inventors ever since ancient times52. According to the passage, visual images differ from the printed words in that ________.A. they have much deeper meaningsB. they have a greater immediate influence upon the viewerC. they fail to produce a beneficial effect upon youngstersD. they enable the viewer to use his imagination fully53. It can be learned from the passage that with the development of phototechnology, ________.A. more and more people seem to prefer TV programs to reading activitiesB. the number of TV viewers has become greater than that of film goersC. more and more television channels are openedD. it takes less time for a new idea to be absorbed54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. The use of light for communication is one of technologists’ concerns.B. The printed words and visual pictures copy reality in much the same way.C. TV viewers have no trouble making a wise choice.D. Phototechnology hasn’t changed people’s view of reality.55. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss ________.A. the ease and fast speed of mass communicationB. the response of the viewer to too much informationC. the difference between right and wrong in the history of technologyD. the influence of phototechnology on mass communicationPart III Cloze (10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

2001年广东省普通高等学校本科插班生招生考试英语试题Part I Reading Comprehension(40%)Passage oneDid you know that the empty plastic soft drink bottles you throw away every day can be turned into carpet or automobile parts ?That used glass bottles and aluminum cans can be turned into new ones?And that yesterday’s newspaper can be turned into tomorrow’s ?It all happens because of recycling .This simple waste we throw away is a “natural resource” that , with recycling, can be used to produce a variety of mew products.Unfortunately, America recycles only 10% of its rubbish ,burns 10% and deposits (存放)80% in waste disposal grounds. As a result , it has to cope with a serious solid waste problem.Every year, Americans throw away about 160 million tons of rubbish. Of that total, plastics make up less than 8% , paper about 36% , and glass and metal about 20% , all by weight . Plastics are naturally lighter, but still, when pressed together, account for only about 20% by volume(体积). As a result, in the past 10 years the United States’ waste disposal grounds have decreased from about 18, 500 to 6,000. In five years 2,000 more will close.In the process of finding solutions, some people have proposed to stop using plastics. Unfortunately, stopping using plastics would do much harm and no good. We would lose all of the safety, health and convenience features of plastics.Besides, packaging(包装) would still be needed. A1987 study shows what would happen if plastics were not used---the energy needed to produce other packaging, its cost, and the volume of waste collected would all rise greatly.Some Americans believe part of the answer to Ameri ca’s waste problem lies in recycling everything from glass to metals to paper to plastic.Today, recycling is on the rise. There are now more than 1,000 waste recycling programs in the U. S. Many are beginning to recycle plastics.Right now, almost 200 companies are recycling millions of used plastic containers into toys, traffic signs, wastebaskets, floor materials, and park benches.Plastics are among the easiest materials to recycle. More than 150 million pounds or 20% of all plastic soft drink bottles were recycled in 1987.1. What can’t the plastic soft drink bottle be turned into?A. NewspapersB. Automobile partsC. ToysD. Traffic signs2. Of all the rubbish in the U.S. , plastics account for ____by weight and ____by volume.A. 20%, 20%B. 8%, 20%C. 36%, 8%D. 20%, 36%3. On average, waste plastics are ____ other wastes.A. as heavy in density asB. heavier in density thanC. lighter in density thanD. the same by weight as4. In five years , the U. S. will have only ____waste disposal grounds.2002年广东省普通高等学校本科插班生招生考试英语试题Part I Reading Comprehension(40%)Passage oneIn Labrador, a country so cold that meat is preserved by freezing it outdoors, Clarence Birdseye came to notice that meat which was frozen on the coldest days had a better flavor than meat frozen at other times. Being curious, he studied preserved meats under the microscope and found that if meat were frozen quickly on a very cold day, ice crystals did not have time to form long needles and the meat cells were not damaged.Birdseye believed that if he could freeze other foods very rapidly, the same thing might happen. But, since there are not many days when the temperature drops 40 or 45 degrees below zero-even in Labrador-some way had to be found to freeze things rapidly without depending on the weather. Remembering that salty water can get very cold without freezing, Birdseye placed some cabbages in salt water and then exposed them to freezing winds. The cabbages froze quickly.Later, Birdseye invented a machine to freeze food while they were very fresh. Today, stores sell a great variety of frozen foods, and some foods that were once available only in certain districts or in season are now readily available in most communities(社区)in any season.1.To freeze foods quickly, Birdseye experimented with ______ .A.a microscopeB.meat in salt waterC.meat in freezing windsD.cabbages2.Cell damage is caused by ______ .A.salty waterB.extremely low temperaturesC.outdoor freezing methodsD.needle-shaped ice crystals3.Birdseye’s principal discovery regarding food preservation was that ______ .A.rapid freezing would reduce cell damageB.foods could be frozen and preserved for later useC.salty water can get very cold without freezingD.meat must be frozen at 45 degrees below zeroter, Birdseye invented ______ .A.a refrigeratorB.a machine that would freeze foods quicklyC.a machine that would freeze foods slowlyD.the icebox5.Much of the popularity of today’s frozen foods is due to the fact that ______ .A.foods may be widely distributedB.disease can be eliminatedC.every American home has a deep-freezeD.such foods are now considered luxuries Passage TwoAstronomers in California have spent the past decade designing a revolutionary, 10-meter telescope with four times the “seeing power” of any functional scope on earth. All they needed was the money to make the project a reality, and last week they got it- a $70 million grant to the California Institute of Technology and the University of California from the W. M. Keck Foundation of Los Angeles, established by the late founder of the Superior Oil Co. The Keck Observatory, which should be completed by 1993, will be set up on Hawaii’s Manna Kea.

Let’s say the top crowd decides that it is smart to wear bright red sweaters (毛衣).Pretty soon everybody is wearing bright red sweaters. There is nothing wrong with that, except thefact that for some people bright red is rather unsuitable. The situation can even become dangerous,if the top crowd decides that it is smart to drink or drive cars at seventy miles an hour. Then thepeople who follow the example are putting their lives in danger. They are like sheep being led tothe slaughter (屠宰).Now, it is likely that you have come across situations like these more than once in your life.In fact, it is likely that at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrong.You may have excused yourself by saying, “Gee, the crowd does it.” Well, let the crowd do it, butdon’t do it yourself. Learn to say “No.” Develop your own standards and your own judgments. Ifyou know the crowd is planning something of which you disapprove, have the courage to bow out gracefully. You’ll have the sat isfaction of standing on your own two feet.36.The main idea of this passage is that ______.A.in every school there is a “top” crowd that sets paceB.it is a mistake to follow the “top” crowd blindlyC.at one time or another you probably did something you knew to be wrongD.people who follow the “top” crowd are putting their lives in danger37.The author disapproves of wearing red sweaters if ______.A.the crowd is wearing themB.one can’t afford themC.one doesn’t look good in redD.it is against school rules38.People who follow the “top” crowd blindly ______.A.are rebels (叛逆者)without a causeB.have no respect for their parentsC.are good-for-nothingsD.sometimes dothings against their better judgment39.The underlined phrase “to bow out” may probably mean ______.A.not to take partB.to make an excuseC.to feel sorryD.to beashamed40.The author urges the reader to ______.A.follow the crowdB.ta ke the advice from the “top” crowdC.be independentD.do whatever he wantsPassage 2The fact that everybody enjoys a good mystery explains why magicians are such popular entertainers. We all know that a magician does not really depend on “magic” to perf orm his tricks,but on his ability to act at great speed. However, this does not prevent us from enjoying watchinga magician produce rabbits from a hat, swallow countless eggs, or saw(锯)his wife in two.Probably the greatest magician of all time was Harry Houdini who died in 1926. His realname was Enrich Weiss, but he adopted the name “Houdini” after reading a book which influenced him greatly. This had been written by a famous magician called Robert Houdini.Houdini mastered the art of escaping. He could free himself from the tightest knots (最牢固的结)or the most difficult locks in seconds. Although no one really knows how he did this, there isno doubt that he had made a close study of every type of lock ever invented. He would carry a small steel needle-like tool fastened to his leg and he used this instead of a key.Houdini once asked the Chicago police to lock him in prison. They bound him in chains and locked him up, but he freed himself in an instant. The police accused him of having used a tool and locked him up again. This time he wore no clothes and there were chains round his neck, waist, wrists(手腕),and legs; but he again escaped in a few minutes. Houdini had probably hidden his “needle” in a wax-like substance and dropped it on the floor in the passage(过道).As he went past, he stepped on it so that it so that it stuck to (粘在)the bottom of his foot. His most famous escape, however, was altogether astonishing. He was heavily chained up and shut in an empty wooden box the lid of which was nailed down. The box was dropped into the sea in New York harbor. In one minute Houdini had swum to the surface. When the box was brought up, it was opened and the chains were found inside.41. Magicians’ successful tricks mostly depend on the fact that they can ______.A.create any animals mysteriouslyB.eat a lot of eggsC.cut their wives in twoD.perform tricks quickly42. Enrich Weiss used the name Harry Houdini because ______.A. his father had this as his family nameB. he respected another magician Robert Houdini very muchC. he got the name because of his successD. he learned his art from Robert Houdini and was named after him43. Harry Houdini’s best art was perhaps that ______.A. he could use a steel needle-like tool instead of a keyB. he could invent all kinds of knots and locks in a minuteC. he could free himself quickly while bound or locked upD. he made a close study of all types of lock44. Harry Houdini was once locked in prison, being bound in chains, as ______.A. he was accused of crimes and was arrested by police in ChicagoB. he wanted to show to the police how skillful he was at escapingC. the police wanted to know whether their prison was secureD. the police wanted to see whether he could escape with nothing on45. The best title of this passage might be ______.A. Harry Houdini, the Great MagicianB. The History of MagiciansC. Why People Like Magicians So MuchD. How Magicians WorkPassage 3I lose so many things that I was sure they just get up and walk. Perhaps I have never admitted it—even to myself, but I am extremely jealous of people who are so orderly that they never lose anything. Most of my friends always seem to have a place for everything and everything is in its place. I hate comparing myself with them. They have special cupboards for tools, hooks to hang things on and drawers to put things in . It is quite impossible for me to compete.Some things have a terrible habit of disappearing the moment I need them. Pencils and ballpoint pens are never anywhere near the telephone when it rings, no matter how much care Itake. Screw-drivers and tin-openers always manage to walk into the garden and, as a result, screws remain loose, and tins remain unopened. Boxes of matches move under the radio, and needles disappear every time I want to sew a button on a shirt.The situation was getting so much out of control that I decided to organize myself. I had a large cupboard put into the kitchen. On the shelves I neatly arranged a number of boxes and tins, the contents of which I clearly printed in ink on the outside. I had one box for pins, another for nails, and a special place for screw-drivers. There was a new address book in one corner so that I could make a note of telephone numbers and addresses. Before this I had always written addresses on bits of paper——which I quickly lost. Soon everything was tidily arranged in its place, from pairs of scissors to cakes of soap and spare lamps. Having made such a sincere attempt to prevent things from running away, I felt very proud of myself. But it was not long before the matches disappeared and the hammer decided to hide itself in the waste-paper basket. I soon got my revenge, however. I had a lock fitted to the cupboard and thus made sure that nothing could escape. This was an admirable solution——until I lost the key to the cupboard.46. This passage is something written to ______.A. tell readers a jokeB. complain about his toolsC. teach readers some tricksD. criticize himself humorously47. The author loses so many things because ______.A. the things can really get up and walkB. other people never lose anythingC. he doesn’t have special cupboards for toolsD. he can not organize himself well48. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. The author’s things will e scape when they are needed.B. When the author needs to take notes, he can’t find his pencils.C. You can often find screw-drivers and tin-openers in the kitchen.D. Boxes of matches often stay where they should not be.49. After the author decided to improve the situation, he did everything below except that ______.A. he had different boxes for different toolsB. he put some boxes and tins on the shelvesC. he wrote telephone numbers and addresses on paper piecesD. he had a large cupboard put in the kitchen50. Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?A. Ever since his new arrangement, everything was brought under control.B. The offorts he made turned out to be a failure.C. He had a lock fitted to the cupboard, which proved to be an effective measure.D. He was very proud of himself for his clever measure.Passage 4While the history of technology can be traced along many lines, one of the most intriguing (引人入胜的)development is that photo technology, the technology of light. From the prehistoric invention of fire to laser beams (激光束)and fiber optics (光纤), light has “continually occupied the minds of inventors.” Their inventions fall into two groups: the use of light to aid vision and, more interestingly, the use of light for purposes of communication.The use of light for communication is one of the major directions that technology has taken ever since the middle of the nineteenth century. From still (静态的)photography to movies to television (with a development from black-and-white to color imagery in each), photo technology has had a great effect upon mass communication and mass education. Unlike the printed word, visual images have more impact because they are more immediate: They copy reality in a way that the printed word cannot. Unlike letter shapes, they are not abstract; unlike words, they require no symbolic interpretation by the mind. Combined with the widespread and uniform spreading of such images, phototechnology affects the thinking of vast audiences and shapes their view of reality.As the number of commercially available television channels grows, the viewer’s freedom of choice increases, but so does the burden of that choice.51. It can be learned about the technology of light from the first paragraph that ________.A. its mere practical use is to enable people to see wellB. it achieved a remarkable development in the early nineteenth centuryC. its development is related to the study of the history of technologyD. is has aroused the interest of inventors ever since ancient times52. According to the passage, visual images differ from the printed words in that ________.A. they have much deeper meaningsB. they have a greater immediate influence upon the viewerC. they fail to produce a beneficial effect upon youngstersD. they enable the viewer to use his imagination fully53. It can be learned from the passage that with the development of phototechnology, ________.A. more and more people seem to prefer TV programs to reading activitiesB. the number of TV viewers has become greater than that of film goersC. more and more television channels are openedD. it takes less time for a new idea to be absorbed54. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. The use of light for communication is one of technologists’ concerns.B. The printed words and visual pictures copy reality in much the same way.C. TV viewers have no trouble making a wise choice.D. Phototechnology hasn’t changed people’s view of reality.55. The paragraph following this passage will most probably discuss ________.A. the ease and fast speed of mass communicationB. the response of the viewer to too much informationC. the difference between right and wrong in the history of technologyD. the influence of phototechnology on mass communicationPart III Cloze (10%)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.
