In fact,scientists who study noise say that the average noise level in New York is 72. 5 decibels. This is a little louder than normal conversation,which is 65 decibels. The noise level is the result of so many people and cars in the same area.Now even the insides of taxis are noisy. When you get into a taxi,you hear the voice of a wellknown singer,sportsreporter,or Broadway actress giving instructions.That’t right. The voice of a famous person tells you what to do. One popular singer gives this message:“Cats have nine lives,but you have only one,so fasten your seat belt!”Other voices say things such as“Don’t forget to collect all your belongings. ”（People often leave hats,umbrellas,and bags in taxis. ）There is a good reason for the messages. There are more than 12,000 cabs in New York,and every year taxis get into more than 15,000 accidents. In an accident,people who don’t wear seat belts hit the partition,the glass wall separating the driver and passengers in the taxi. They can hurt their foreheads or break their noses or chins. Every year,about 11,000 people are injured in this way.Many people are annoyed by the voices. Cabdrivers in particular dislike the messages. “I play the messages 12 hours a day. I hear the same voices 60 times a day. It makes me crazy,”says Amir,a 45yearold cabdriver. “But if I don’t play the messages,I get fined ＄100. ”A lot of passengers complain,too. “It’s too much noise,”says a passenger. “I asked the driver to turn off the message,but he said he can’t. ”Other people think the voices are a great idea. One taxi driver says,“People like to hear the famous voices,and they put on their seat belts more often. ”And passengers from out of town really like the idea. “Most of the time,taxi driversare in a bad mood,”says Melanie Benton,who visits New York often on business,“It’s nice to hear a cheerful voice when you get in to a cab. ”(1).

Some people might think that Father’s Day was established as a holiday to helpgreeting card com panies sell more cards. However,when Father’s Day was first suggested in the early 1900s,Father’s Day cards hadn’t been invented yet.The idea of celebrating Father’s Day was actually inspired by Mother’s Day. In1909,Mother’s Day was just becoming very popular in the United States. One day,Sonora Dodd,of Spokane,Washington,was listening to a church talk about setting aside a day to honor one’s mother. It gave her the idea to propose a day to honorfathers,and in particular,her own father—William Jackson Smart.Mr. Smart had raised Sonora and her five brothers and sisters all by himself after Sonora’s mother died in childbirth. As an adult,Sonora realized the selflessness her father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. Her father made all the parental sacrifices. In the daughter’s eyes,her father was a courageous,selfless,and loving man.Mrs. Dodd went to her minister and others about having a church service devoted to fathers on June 5,her father’s birthday. That date was too soon for her minister to prepare a service,so he spoke two weeks later on June 19. It took about a year of working with politicians,religious leaders,businessmen and the local Young Men’s Christian Association to bring life to her idea of an annual Father’s Day.Event ually all her hard work paid off. On June 19,1910,the first Father’s Day was celebrated in Spokane,Washington. In 1972 President Richard Nixon established a permanent national celebration of Father’s Day to be held on the third Sunday in June. Since then,fathers have been honored and recognized by their families throughout the U. S. on that date.Father’s Day has become a day to not only honor your father,but all men who act as a father figure. Stepfathers,uncles,grandfathers,and adult male friends are all honored on Father’s Day. It’s also another day for greeting card companies and shop owners to celebrate because sales of the most popular gifts for Dad（shirts,ties,and electric shavers）increase considerably.(1). The passage mainly tells about______.(A). Mrs. Dodd’s love for her father(B). the origin and establishment of Father’s Day(C). the importance of honoring fathers in the U. S.(D). Mrs. Dodd’s contribution to the government decision(2). Mrs. Dodd loved her father because he______.(A). had a large family(B). was a single parent(C). was a respected minister(D). was courageous,selfless and loving(3). In the United States,the first Father’s Day was celebrated nationwide in______.(A). 1972(B). 1910(C). 1909(D). 1900(4). The author of the passage seems to believe that______.(A). stepfathers should not be honored on Father’s Day(B). Father’s Day has nothing to do with Mother’s Day(C). Father’s Day started with Mrs. Dodd’s love for her father(D). card companies should not make money on Fa ther’s Day cards(5). Greeting card companies welcome Father’s Day because______.(A). their sale increases(B). it is a national holiday(C). adult male friends are also honored(D). they can sell ties,shirts and electric shavers3. This green and blue planet spinning in space is under severe stress. If we continue to exploit the planet at the present rate,human and animal life will be threatened. Human pride will be followed by nature’s punishment. To save our earth and ourselves,we need first develop an unbiased understanding of ourselves,natureand life.Everyone understands the meaning of the sentence“Man should respect animal life and nature”. But the exact meaning of man,nature and animal life is not always clear.Many refer to man and animals as if they were essentially different. I consider man to be an animal and only differing in degree and not in kind from other animals.Although I discuss in conventional terms human rights and animal rights as if they were separate,strictlyspeaking,human rights should be considered a branch of animal rights.The word“nature”is one of the most complex words in the language,but it has developed three main areas of meaning. These are,first,the essential quality and character of something（as in human nature,or the nature of wood）;second,the inherent force which influences the world（as in Mother Nature）;third,the entire world itself. The last can be taken to include or to exclude human beings,as the phrase man and the natural world implies.I consider humans to be an integral part of nature, although they are also the beings most capable of interfering with its processes. Unfortunately a central drive of W estern“man”has been to conquer“nature”, as if it were an object separate from him. Hence it has become common to distinguish between what is natural（existing without man’s interference）and artificial（manmade）. In this way, natural growth is opposed to education, civilization to the natural state. For many urban people living permanently among concrete and glass, nature itself has come to mean little more than the countryside. And this notion of opposition is where the seed of potential destruction lies.(1). The word“unbiased”in Line 4 of Para. 1 means ______.(A). unbalanced(B). fair(C). partial(D). unreasonable(2). As for the relationship between man and animals, the author holds that ______.(A). man is a kind of animals(B). man is superior to animals(C). man is the same as animals(D). man and animals are essentially different from each other(3). Th e word“they”in Line 6 of Para. 2 refers to ______.(A). human rights(B). animal rights(C). human beings and animals(D). human rights and animal rights(4). In the author’s opinion, the word“nature”indicates ______.(A). a particular kind of thing(B). the inherent force which influences the world(C). the entire world itself including human beings(D). the essential quality and character of something(5). The very last sentence of the passage implies that ______.(A). urbanization violates the peace of the countryside(B). the people in the cities cannot enjoy the nature’s beauty(C). man cannot destroy nature, as they are different from each other(D). if man goes against nature, the world will probably be destroyed四、Word Spelling（10 points,1 point for two items）1. 使活动，使起作用vt. a_ _ _ _ _ _ _2. 令人厌烦的a. b_ _ _ _ _3. 总结，概述v. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _4. 争论，辩论n. d_ _ _ _ _5. 相反的a. c_ _ _ _ _ _ _6. 网络；网状物n. n_ _ _ _ _ _7. 明显的a. e_ _ _ _ _ _8. 凋谢，枯萎，退色vi. f_ _ _9. 种族的a. r_ _ _ _ _10. 和谐；协调n. h_ _ _ _ _ _ 11. 满意，满足n. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _12. 身份；同一n. i_ _ _ _ _ _ _13. 解释，下定义vt. d_ _ _ _ _14. 面试，口试，采访vt. i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _15. 社会学n. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _16. 谦虚的；适中的a. m_ _ _ _ _17. 旅行，行程n. j_ _ _ _ _ _18. 拥有者n. o_ _ _ _19. 描绘，描写，描述vt. p_ _ _ _ _ _20. 拥有，具有vt. p_ _ _ _ _ _五、Word Form（10 points,1 point for each item）1.

You may even have entered the shop just to find shelter from a sudden shower. Whatever the reason, you can soon become totally unaware of your surroundings. The desire to pick up a book with an attractive dust-jacket is irresistible, although this method of selection ought not to be followed, as you might end up with a rather dull book. You soon become absorbed in some book or other, and usually it is only much later that you realise you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment, without buying a book, of course.This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. There are not many places where it is possible to do this. A music shop is very much like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the inevitable greeting: "Can I help you, Sir?" You needn't buy anything you don't want. In a bookshop an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing. Then, and only then, are his services necessary. Of course, you may want to find out where a particular section is, but when he has led you there, the assistant should retire discreetly and look as if he is not interested in selling a single book.You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbing—something which had only vaguely interested you up till then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so interesting, that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section. Book-sellers must be both long-suffering and indulgent (纵容的).1. You may spend too much time in a bookshop because ______.A. the dust-jackets are very attractive B. you start reading one of the books C. it is raining outside D. you have to make sure you don't buy a dull book as a present2. In a good bookshop ______.A. nobody takes any notice of you B. the assistant greets you in a friendly way C. your heart is contented D. you feel that you are in a music shop3. An assistant should help you ______.A. as soon as you have entered the shop B. just before you finish browsing (随便翻阅) C. only when you have finished browsing D. when he leadsyou to a particular section4. Time spent in a bookshop can ______.A. be very much enjoyed B. be joyful C. be greatly enjoying D. being very pleasant5. It is very easy to enter a bookshop and buy ______.A. a book on ancient coins B. a best-selling novel on brass-rubbing C. a book that only vaguely interests you D. a book that unexpectedly interests youPassage 2Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when you labour through your work you may say that you're "hot". That's true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the **es during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up, John! You'll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has.You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save tasks requiring more energy or concentration or your sharper hours.1. According to the author, if a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably he ______.A. is a lazy person B. refuses to follow his own energy cycle C. is not sure when his energy is low D. is at his peak in the afternoon or evening2. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Man's energy cycle can be changed easily. B. Some family quarrels are caused by unawareness of energy cycle. C. Getting up early in the morning is not easy. D. Everyone has a daily energy cycle but a lazy one.3. If one wants to work more efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should ______.A. change his energy cycle B. **e his laziness C. get up earlier than usual D. go to bed earlier4. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will ______.A. help to keep yourenergy for the day's work B. help you to control your temper early in the day C. enable you to concentrate on your routine work D. keep your energy cycle under control all day5. Which of the following statements is not true?A. Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one's energy. B. Dr. Kleitman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of the day. C. Habit helps one adapt to his own energy cycle. D. Children have energy cycles, too.PART TWOⅤ.WORD DERIV ATIONComplete each of the following sentences with a (compound) word derived from the one(s) given in brackets.1.

Cloze TestChoise is the opportunity to select among alternatives. If there is no choise, there is no decision to be made.

Some experts claim the answer is to make jobs more varied. But do more varied jobs lead to greater productivity? There is evidence to suggest that while variety certainly makes the worker’s life more enjoyable, it does not actually make him work harder. As far as increasing productivity is concerned, variety is not an important factor.Other experts feel that giving the worker freedom to do his job in his own way is important and there is no doubt that this is true. The problem is that this kind of freedom cannot easily be given in the modern factory with its complicated machines which must be used in a fixed way. Thus while freedom of choice may be important, there is usually very little that can be done to create it. Another important consideration is how much each worker contributes to the product he is making. In most factories the worker sees only one small part of the product. Some car factories are now experimenting with having many small production lines rather than one large one, so that each worker contributes more to the production of the cars on his line. It would seem that not only is the degree of workers’ contribution an important factor, therefore, but it is also one we can do something about.To what extent does more money lead to greater productivity? The workers themselves certainly think this is important. But perhaps they want more money only because the work they do is so boring. Money just lets them enjoy their spare time more. A similar argument may explain demands for shorter working hours. Perhaps if we succeed in making their jobs more interesting, they will neither want more money, nor will shorter wirking hours be so important to them.21. The passage is mainly about how to ____.A. promote workers’ competitionB. meet worker’s need for varietyC. ensure workers’ right of choiceD. improve workers’ performance22. According to the writer, variety enables a worker to _____.A. derive more enjoyment from life4 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题B. work in his own way more freelyC. fulfill his job requirements betterD. undertake greater responsibilities23. We learn from the passage that freedom of choice _____.A. can hardly function in a flexible mannerB. can hardly lead to increased productivityC. is hardly seen as effective by companiesD. is hardly available in the modern factory24. It can be inferred from the passage that, compared with large production lines, smaller ones give workers ____.A. a greater variety of interesting tasksB. a stronger sense of accomplishmentC. a better idea of the modern industryD. a clearer picture of essential factors25. According to the writer, higher pay can _____.A. make tiring work more interestingB. make up for longer working hoursC. help workers to live more happilyD. help to create greater procuctivityPassage TwoWe live in a technological society. Almost every aspect of life in the modern world is influenced (for better or worse) by technology . Communications, transportation, manufacturing, mining and exploration, the service industries, medicine, agriculture all are dominated by methods and apparatus which are the results of technological advances. The basis of technology is science. without the fundamental discoveries and understanding provided by science, technology would be hit-or-miss(随意的) affair, lacking direction and making little progress. One can argue that our society is beginning to suffer from too much technology, but5 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题we will never return to the primitive life of our ancestors – technology is with us and it will remain with us. Just as it is important to study history so that we can appreciate how the world came to its present state, it is important to learn some of the basic concepts of science so that we can appreciate the role that technology plays in modern society. For without some knowledge of the scientific principles by which technology operates, one can neighter cope with technology nor assist in directing it into the proper channels.In recent times, we have had the general attitude that whatever is technologically possible should be done. It is now becoming increasingly apparent that our scientific and technological progress has outstripped (超越) our capacity to perform or absorb everything that is possible. More and more, we weill have decisions to make: in what directions should the thrust of our new discoveries be made? The situation requires that we make intelligent decisions – decisions based in a knowledge and an understanding of what can be done, what will be the benefits, and what weill be the comsequences. Scientists do not make these decisions; people make them. It is therefore incumbent (义不容辞的) on every individual to acquire the basic knowledge that weill permit him to participate intelligently in directing the course of our technological advancement.26. According to the passage, technology can ____.A. produce bad effects on societyB. suffer from hit-or-miss affairsC. influence the course of scienceD. restore life of the primitive age27. According to the passage, one must learn basic concepts of science in order to ____.A. assist in directing science in a proper wayB. contribute to the orientation of technologyC. discover the progress of science in historyD. find out about the existence of technology28. Because the human capaity to perform or absorb everything that is possible has been outstripped, it is time for people to ____.A. slow down the development of technologyB. reduce the role of science in modern timesC. take a new point of view about technology6 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题D. reevaluate the lifestyle of human ancestors29. According to the write, it is everyone’s responsibility to participate in deciding on ____.A. how fast scientific advancement should beB. how fast technological progress should beC. what to acquire and what to skip in scienceD. what to do and what to avoid in technology30. The passage is mainly about _____.A. the influence of technology on modern societyB. the importance of learning scientific principlesC. the imp;act of scientific progress on civilizationD. the difference between science and technologyPassage ThreeSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on out interpesonal relationships. One strength of the human condition is our tendency to give and receive support from one another under stressful circumstances. Social support consists of the exchange of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to cope with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties. Studies over a range of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, reveal that the presence of social support helps people fight off illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives, and co-workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others despite our faults and difficulites. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionship supportive. Engaging in leisure-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same time distracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental7 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题support – financial aid, material resources, and needed services – that reduces stress by helping us resolve and cope with our problems.31. We learn from the passage that interpersonal relationships are important because _____.A. they are essential to people’s social well-being.B. they arouse people's desire for communicationC. they deal with problems in the informatoin eraD. they are effective in curing a range of diseases32. Research shows that people's physical and mental health _____.A. is related to stressful conditionsB. is related to support from othersC. relies on soical welfare systemsD. relies on the severity of diseases33. The underlined word "cushions" (paragraph 2) most probably means ____.A. adds up toB. does away withC. lessens the effect ofD. lays the foundation for34. Social companionship is beneficial in that_____.A. it enables people to eliminate their mistakesB. it helps people to understand their problemsC. it adds a new meaning to people's social lifed. it creates a new focus of attention for people35. Helping a sick neighbor with some repair work is an example of ____.A. instrumental supportB. informational supportC. social companionshipD. increasing self-respect8 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题第二部分非选择题IV.

The biggest single need in computer technology is not for increase speed, or enlarged capacity, or prolonged memory, or reduced size, but for better questions and better use of the answers. Without taking anything away from the technicians, we think it might be fruitful to effect some sort of junction between the computer technologist and the poet. A genuine purpose may be served by tuning loose the wonders of the creative imagination on the kinds of problems being put to electronic technology. The company of poets may enable the men who tend the machines to see a wider range of possibilities than technology alone may inspire.10 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题A poet, said Aristotle, has the advantage of expressing the universal; the specialist expresses only the particular. The poet, moreover, can remind us that man's greatest energy comes not from his dynamos but from his dreams. But the quality of a man's dreams can only be a reflection of his subconscious. What he puts into his subconscious, therefore, is quite literally the most important nourishment in the world.11 2008年10月自考英语（二）试题。
