专升本英语（阅读理解）模拟试卷2阅读理解It is very interesting to note where the debate about diversity(多样化)is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate(公司的)leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rate are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women , and more immigrants . Corporate leaders know that if that doesn' t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the business managers they will need.Likewise , I don't hear people in the academy saying, \1.The word \(D)A. superficialB. remarkableC. debatableD. essential解析：根据文中具体语言环境可知该词的意思为“必需的，不可缺少的”，故选D。

浙江专升本（英语）模拟试卷2(题后含答案及解析)题型有：1.93% a year between 1991 and 2000, and Brazilian women now have only 2. 6 children on average. Martine says this figure may have fallen still further since 2000, an achievement that makes it the envy of many other Third World countries. Martine puts it down to, among other things, soap operas(通俗电视连续剧)and installment(分期付款)plans introduced in the 1970s. Both played an important, although indirect, role in lowering the birth rate. Brazil is one of the world’s biggest producers of soap operas. Globo, Brazil’s most popular television network, shows three hours of soaps six nights a week, while three others show at least one hour a night. Most soaps are based on wealthy characters living the high life in big cities. “Although they have never really tried to work in a message towards the problems of reproduction, they describe middle and upper class values-not many children, different attitudes towards sex, women working,” says Martine. “ They sent this image to all parts of Brazil and made people conscious of other patterns of behavior and other values, which were put into a very attractive package. “Meanwhile, the installment plans tried to encourage the poor to become consumers. “This led to an enormous change in consumption patterns and consumption was incompatible(不相容的)with unlimited reproduction,”says Martine.11．According to the passage, Brazil has cut back its population growth ______.A．by educating its citizenB．by careful family planningC．by developing TV programmeD．by chance正确答案：D解析：细节题。

We must find out their customs, so that they will not think us impolite. Here are some examples that a person with good manners does or does not do.If you visit a Chinese family you should knock at the door first. When the door opens, you should not move before the host says “Come in, please.” After you enter the room, you shouldn’t sit down until the host asks you to take a seat. When a cup of tea is put up on a tea table before you or sent to your hand, you should say “Thank you.” And receive it with your two h ands, or they will think you are not polite. Before entering a house in Japan, it is good manners to take off your shoes. In European countries, if your shoes are very dirty, this is not done. In a Malay house, a guest never finishes the food on the table. He leaves a little to show he has had enough. In England, a guest always finishes the drink or the food to show that he has enjoyed it. This will make the host very pleased.1. In China, before the host says “Come in, please.” you shouldn’t knock at the d oor.A. TrueB. False2. In Japan it is good manners to take off your shoes before you enter the host’s house.A. TrueB. False3. In a Malay house a guest leaves a little food to show that .A. he has enjoyed itB. he does not like the foodC. he needs some drinkD. he can’t have any more4. In England the host will be pleased if his guest .A. take off his dirty shoesB. leaves a little food on the tableC. finishes the drink or foodD. receive a cup of tea with his two hands5. Which is the best title of this passage?A. Different countries, different manners.B. Different manners in China.C. Different manners in Japan.D. Different manners in England.1-5 BADCAPassage TwoThere are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be recalled at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days and weeks. In contrast, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and native-speaking students. To begin with, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, “weather”, “whether”, “wither” and “wether” are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. “Method”, “way”, “manner” and “system” would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results sugge st that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.6. According to the passage, Henning gave a test on vocabulary to his subjects.A. TrueB. False7. It is difficult for advanced students to remember words that sound alike.A. TrueB. False8. Why did Henning make the experiment?A. To study how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memory.B. To study how students learn English vocabulary.C. To study how to develop students’ ability in English.D. To study how long information in short-term memory is kept.9. The word “subject” in the passage means.A. the college course the students takeB. the theme of the listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD. the student experimented on10. What does the passage center on?A. Memory.B. Two kinds of memory.C. Short-term memory.D. An experiment on students.6-10 ABADCPassage ThreeIt is a well-known fact that a person will move in a circle if he cannot use his eyes to control his direction. Pitch-black nights, thick fogs, blinding storms – all these can keep a traveler from seeing where he is going. Then he is unable to move in any fixed direction, but walks in circles.A Norwegian professor, F.O. Guldberg decided that this problem of circular movement was worth studying. He collected many true stories on the subject. Many of the stories tell about how travelers on a starless night or in a thick forest unconsciously diverted from their original direction and went back to their starting place. A simple example will help you to understand his explanation of why animals walk in circles.Have you ever played with a toy car and started it off across the floor? Then you know that it will hardly travel in a straight line. It will move in some kind of curve. If it is to move in a straight line, the wheels on both sides have to be of exactly equal size. If not, the little toy car turns towards the side with the smaller wheels.Walking in circles is caused in much the same way. Usually a walking man will “watch his steps” and “look where he is going”. He needs his sense, especially his eyes, to get to the point he intends to reach. When he cannot use his eyes to control his steps, he will not walk straight unless he takes a step of the same length with each foot.In most people, however, muscle development is not the same in both legs, so that it is probable that the steps will be unequal. The difference may be so small that no one notices it. But small as it is, it can cause circular movement.Let us suppose that a man’s left foot takes a step 20 inches long and that his right foot takes a step 30 inches long. Now suppose he takes ten steps – five with his left foot and five with his right foot. His left foot will travel 100 inches. His right foot will travel 150 inches. This sounds impossible. One foot cannot remain 50 inches behind the other. What really happens? At each step the man turns a little bit to the left. Sooner or later he makes a complete circle. The tracks of his feet, however, make two circles, one inside the other. His left foot makes the smaller circle because it is taking smaller steps. His right foot makes the larger circle because it takes larger steps. This is why a person walks in circles when he sets out in a straight line. Thus dear readers, our circular mystery has a very straight answer.11. If a man’s right leg is shorter than his left, when blindfolded he will turn to the right.A. TrueB. False12. A left-handed person would tend to swim to the left.A. TrueB. False13. A toy car will travel in a straight line if .A. it is placed on a level floorB. all four wheels have the same sizeC. the small wheels are in frontD. the big wheels are in front14. Normally, people walk straight by .A. taking steps of exactly equal lengthB. using their eyes to guide their stepsC. walking to and froD. both B and C15. Suppose a man’s right foot takes longer steps than his left foot, when he travels a certain distance, his two feet will leave two circles of tracks. In this case .A. the circle made by his right foot is smaller than the one made by his left footB. the circle made by his left foot is included in the circle made by his right footC. the circle more or less cross each otherD. the circle made by his left foot includes the circle made by his right foot11-15 ABBBB答案：Part I Vocabulary and Structure1-5 BCDBA 6-10 BBCCB 11-15 CDCBA 16-20 BCCACPart II Reading Comprehension1-5 BADCA 6-10 ABADC 11-15 ABBBB。

专升本英语阅读模拟试题阅读理解：Passage 1The news of the discovery of a new species of dinosaur has excited paleontologists all over the world. The new species, named Terracotta Rex, is believed to have lived approximately 100 million years ago during the Late Cretaceous period. The fossilized remains were found in a remote region of China by a team of researchers from the Paleontological Society of Asia.Terracotta Rex is thought to have been one of the largest carnivorous dinosaurs, measuring over 30 feet in length and weighing around 5 tons. Its most distinctive feature is the unique terracotta coloring of its bones, which is where it gets its name from. This coloring is believed to have provided camouflage in its natural habitat. In addition, Terracotta Rex had sharp teeth and powerful jaws, indicating that it was a formidable predator.The discovery of Terracotta Rex will shed new light on the evolutionary history of dinosaurs, particularly in Asia. Paleontologists are eager to study the specimen further in order to learn more about its behavior, diet, and ecological role. The fossilized remains will be displayed in a museum in Beijing, where they will be open to the public for viewing.Question 1: When did Terracotta Rex live?A. 50 million years agoB. 100 million years agoC. 150 million years agoD. 200 million years agoQuestion 2: How long was Terracotta Rex believed to be?A. Over 20 feetB. Over 30 feetC. Over 40 feetD. Over 50 feetQuestion 3: What was the most distinctive feature of Terracotta Rex?A. Terracotta coloring of its bonesB. Long tailC. Powerful jawsD. Sharp clawsPassage 2The benefits of exercise are well-known, but recent research has found that the type of exercise you choose may impact your cognitive performance.A study conducted at a university in Australia compared the effects of aerobic exercise and strength training on brain function in older adults.The results of the study showed that participants who engaged in aerobic exercise, such as running or cycling, performed better on memory and attention tests compared to those who did strength training, such as weightlifting or resistance training. The researchers believe that aerobicexercise may increase blood flow to the brain, which can improve cognitive function.In addition to cognitive benefits, aerobic exercise has also been shown to reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity. This highlights the importance of incorporating aerobic exercise into your fitness routine for overall health and well-being.Question 4: What did the study compare the effects of?A. Aerobic exercise and strength trainingB. Yoga and PilatesC. Swimming and dancingD. Walking and hikingQuestion 5: What did participants who engaged in aerobic exercise perform better on?A. Memory and attention testsB. Strength testsC. Endurance testsD. Flexibility testsQuestion 6: What does aerobic exercise increase to the brain according to researchers?A. Blood flowB. Oxygen levelsC. NeurotransmittersD. Hormone productionPassage 3The rise of social media has transformed the way we communicate, but it has also raised concerns about privacy and security. Social media platforms such as Facebook and Twitter collect vast amounts of personal data from their users, including their likes, dislikes, and online interactions.This data is used by companies to target users with personalized advertisements, but it also raises privacy issues. Many users are unaware of how their data is being used and shared, leading to calls for increased regulation of social media companies.In addition to privacy concerns, social media platforms have also been criticized for their role in spreading misinformation and fake news. The ease and speed with which information can be shared online make it difficult to verify the accuracy of news stories, leading to the proliferation of fake news.Despite these concerns, social media continues to be a dominant force in modern society, shaping public discourse and influencing political opinions. It is important for users to be aware of the potential risks and take steps to protect their online privacy and security.Question 7: What personal data do social media platforms collect from their users?A. Names and addressesB. Likes, dislikes, and online interactionsC. Credit card informationD. Medical historyQuestion 8: What do companies use personal data for?A. Targeting users with personalized advertisementsB. Selling it to other companiesC. Analyzing consumer behaviorD. Improving user experienceQuestion 9: What have social media platforms been criticized for?A. Spreading misinformation and fake newsB. Protecting user privacyC. Promoting online safetyD. Enhancing communication答案：1. B2. B3. A4. A5. A6. A7. B8. A9. A。

When you have completed your college education, you will look for a job suited to your training, interests, and ambition. In most cases, you will visit a likely employer´s office and complete an application form for the position in which you are interested. The employer may then make a decision regarding your ability on the basis of your application form and interview. Throughout your lifetime, however, you may find yourself in other job-hunting situations in an attempt to improve your position. As you gain experience, you are likely to become ambitious for better and better jobs. These better jobs often require letters of application and summaries of your background and experience. Therefore, your writing skills may play an important part in obtaining the job you desire. In any job-hunting situation, there are a number of ways you may use your writing skills: to complete an application form, prepare a resume, write an application letter, or write employment follow-up letters. As an ambitious job-hunter, therefore, you should be able to prepare all the written materials that will help you to get the job you want.第21题According to the passage, in looking for a job, the students______.A.must make an arrangement for an interviewB.may follow their interests and ambitionC.will surely get a chance to improve their positionsD.will always visit every employer´ s office第22题If you want to improve your position and find a better job, it is important to______.A.improve your writing skillsB.make a decision on the basis of your own desireC.get a job related to your educationD.understand the application form of the company第23题To find a job, it is NOT necessary for a student to supply ______.A.a writing sampleB.a letter of applicationC.an application formD.a resume第24题Your application for a job should mainly inform the employer of your______.A.present position and incomeB.former employersC.background and experienceD.former colleagues第25题What may be the best title for this passage?A.How to Complete a Job Application FormB.An Introduction to Job-hunting SituationsC.书面表达Skills Help Job-huntingD.An Attempt to Find Better Jobs上一题下一题(26~30/共20题)Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.6. The market is a concept. If you are growing tomatoes in your backyard for sale you are producing for the market. You might sell some to your neighbor and some to the manager of the local supermarket. But in either case, you are producing for the market. Your efforts are being directed by the market. If people stop buying tomatoes, you will stop producing them. If you take care of a sick person to earn money, you are producing for the market. If your father is a steelworker or a taxi driver or a doctor or a grocer, he is producing goods or service for the market. When you spend your income, you are buying things from the market. You may spend money in stores, supermarkets and gas stations. Still you are buying from the market. When the local grocer hires you to drive the delivery truck, he is buying your labor in the labor market. The market may seem to be something abstract. But for each person or businessman who is making and selling something, it is concrete. If nobody buys your tomatoes, it won´t be long before you get the message. The market is telling you something.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.11. 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. 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 estimated that about 2 million people around the world have now fried bungee jumping. Other activities as risky as bungee jumping involve jumping From tall buildings and diving into the sea from the top of high cliff. 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 comparatively safe conditions: 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.第31题The best title for the passage would be______.A.Dangerous Sports: What and WhyB.The Boredom of Modern LifeC.The Need for ExcitementD.Bungee Jumping: Is It Really Dangerous?第32题More and more people today______.A.are trying activities such as bungee jumpingB.are coming close to death in sportsC.are climbing the highest mountainsD.are exploring unknown places第33题In bungee jumping, you______.A.fall towards the ground without a ropeB.slide down a rope to the groundC.attach yourself to a rope and fall towards the groundD.jump as high as you can第34题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.they no longer need to hunt for foodD.their lives lack excitement第35题The writer of the text has a______attitude towards dangerous sports.A.positiveB.negativeC.neutralD.nervous上一题下一题(36~40/共20题)Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.16. Are some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings.Thus the limits of a person´s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways. It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people is, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depends on birth. Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in their intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays an important part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.第36题If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ______.A.not reach his intelligence in his lifeB.go beyond his intelligence limits in rich surroundingsC.still become a genius if he should be given special educationD.become a genius第37题" If we take two unrelated people at random from the population" ( Para. 2 ) means if we ______.A.choose two persons with different intelligenceB.choose two persons who are relativeC.take out two persons of close relationshipD.pick any two persons第38题The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows ______.A.the part that birth playsB.the importance of their positionsC.the role of environment on intelligenceD.the importance of their intelligence第39题The writer is in favor of the view that man´ s intelligence is given to him______.A.neither at birth nor through environmentB.both at birth and through environmentC.through environmentD.at birth第40题The best title of this passage can be______.A.Effect of EducationB.Dependence on EnvironmentC.IntelligenceD.Surroundings上一题下一题(41~60/共20题)ClozeDirections:For each blank in the following passage, there are four choices marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D].

普高专升本英语（阅读理解）模拟试卷2(题后含答案及解析)全部题型 2. Reading ComprehensionReading ComprehensionMost airlines allow passengers to book an airline flight online. Travel sites such as Yahoo and Google, all offer search engines and online booking for an airline flight. The first thing a traveler should do when booking online is to shop around. There are numerous web sites offering this service, and some may have cheaper fares than others. A traveler also needs to check fares for the desired flight times. Fares can change, depending on when the airline flight departs, how many stops are involved, and at what airport. The traveler needs to make sure he is comparing fares so as to get the best deal. When booking online, the traveler also needs to check the travel site’ s policies and fees. Most travel sites charge a small booking fee and have other restrictions about canceling flights, and other types of refunds. Many travelers think about looking on a travel search engine first for the best airline flight fares. However, the individual airline web site may offer the best deal, since they often have “Internet only” deals booked through their own sites. A traveler should always have a credit card available when he or she purchases the ticket, and should make the reservation in the name appearing on the card. The traveler will then be issued an e-ticket for the airline flight, rather than the traditional paper ticket. When he receives flight confirmation, usually through e-mail, he should print out the reservation e-mail and save it with his travel documents.1．When booking an airline flight online, the traveler should first______.A．visit Google and book a flight immediatelyB．visit Yahoo and book a flight instantlyC．make a choice between Yahoo and GoogleD．search and compare options before booking正确答案：D解析：根据文章第一段第三句“The first thing a traveler should do when booking online is to shop around．”可知，网上购买机票首先要做的就是上网搜索并进行比较，所以选项D为正确答案。

She spent her days surrounded by books, and that's when she realized that she wanted to write her own book.

Youshould make the correct choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Task1As you are students of English, it’s very possible that you’ll be interested in England.That’s where the language was first spoken. But England is often called by other names. This oftenconfuses people and I wonder if you know what these names mean. So, now I would like to tell you about this matter of names. I believe that you have heard people use the names—England, Britain or Great Britain. Let’s see what each of these names means.If you look at a map of Europe, you’ll see a group of islands—one larger island off the northwest coast, one smaller and many tiny ones. These make up what is called the British Isles (不列颠群岛). The largest island of the British Isles is Britain. It is also called Great Britain. The smaller island is Ireland (爱尔兰).Britain is divided into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England. But sometimes the Word “England” is used instead of “Britain”. Why so?In ancient times, what is Britain now use d to be three different countries. People in These different countries spoke different language. Over many years the three countries became one. England is the largest and richest of the three and it has the most people. So the English people take it for granted that their own name stands for the whole island.There’s another thing that confuses people: sometimes you may hear people say “the Untied Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. That is official name of the country. Northern Ireland is only one sixth of the island of Ireland. The rest of the island is an independent state, called the Republic of Ireland. So we have the names of “England”, “Britain”, “Great Britain”, and “the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. Now do you kn ow what each of them means?46.

Which of the following is an independent country?A. WalesB. ScotlandC. Northern IrelandD. The Republic of IrelandTask 2Bees do two kind s of dances to tell other bees of their discovery of food. First,there is a round dance. In this dance, the bee moves in a circle inside the hive.The round dance is used when food is close by. The food must not be more than ten meters away.(3)If a bee comes back and does a round dance , other bees know they must go out and look nearby for food. The bees also smellthe bee that has found the food. The smell tells them what kind of flower to look for. After watching the round dance and smelling the bee that has found the food ,the other bees can find the food source .A second kind of dance done by the bees is a tail-wagging dance. In this dance,the bee wiggles the end of its body as it moves in a straight line. The tail-wagging dance is used when the food is more than ten meters away. The bees know form the speed of the tail-wagging dance just how far away the food source is .In the tail-wagging dance, the bees also smell the bee that has found the food. The smell tells them what kind of flower to look for.(4)After watching the tail-wagging dance and smelling the bee that has found the food , the other bees know how far to fly and what kinds of flowers to look for .Each bee can tell all the other bees where to look for food. The bees can also tell one another if the food is especially good and how much of it there is. Karl von Frisch did an experiment with bees. He put food source very high above the bee hive, and put a bee into the food . The bee returned to the hive and did the round dance, but none of the other bees could find the food. This suggests that bees do not really have a language .One bee could not tell the other bees the height of the food. One bee could not communicate this new information to the others .51、Bees tell other bees that they have found food by______.A. tail-wagging first and smelling other bees laterB. round dancing first and smelling other bees laterC. round dancing first and smelling other bees laterD. either round dancing or tail-wagging52.What will a bee do to tell other bees about food source that is eight meters away?A.
