工商管理学位英语考试模拟题—阅读理解题1.The English have the reputation of being very different from all other nationalities. It is claimed that living on an island separated from the rest of Europe has much to do with it. Whatever the reasons, it may be fairly stated that the Englishman has developed some attitudes and habits distinguishing him from other nationalities.Broadly speaking, the Englishman is a quiet, shy, and reserved person among people he knows well. Before strangers he often seems inhibited, even embarrassed. You have only to witness a railway compartment any morning or evening to see the truth. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing(打盹)in a corner, and no one speaks. An English wit once suggested to overseas visitors, "On entering a railway compartment shake hands with all the passengers." Needless to say, he was not being serious. There is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior, which, if broken, makes the person immediately the object of suspicion.It is well known that the English seldom show openly extremes of enthusiasm, emotion etc. Of course, an Englishman feels no less than any other nationality. Imagine a man commenting on the great beauty of a young girl. A man of more emotional temperament might describe her as "a marvelous jewel", while the Englishman will flatly state "Um, she's all right." An Englishman may recommend a highly successful and enjoyable film to friends by commenting, "It's not bad." The overseas visitors must not be disappointed by this apparent lack of interest. They must realize that "all right", "not bad" are very often used with the sense of "first class", "excellent". This special use of language is particularly common in English.1. One explanation for the different character of English people is that ________.[A] they are geographically isolated from the European continent[B] they have nothing to do with the other Europeans[C] they like to keep quiet among their acquaintances[D] they tend to be reserved by nature2. The word "inhibited" (Line 2, Para. 2) in this passage probably means ________ .[A] unable to have good manners [C] able to act properly[B] unable to express and relax freely [D] able to talk freely3. According to the passage, on entering a railway compartment, an overseas visitor is expected to ________ .[A] inquire about the code of behavior in the train [C] shake hands with the person he knows[B] shake hands with all the passengers [D] behave like an Englishman4. The English way of commenting on something or somebody suggests that ________.[A] the English are modest in most circumstances[B] the English feel no less than any other nationality[C] the English tend to display less emotion than they feel[D] the English don't take a strong interest in making comment5. What does the passage mainly discuss?[A] The differences between the English and the other Europeans.[B] The different character of the Englishman and its reason.[C] The reasons for English people's shyness.[D] The code of behavior of the nationalities in Europe.答案及解析:1.

Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage AMonarch butterflies(黑脉金斑蝶) are a common summer sight in the northern United States and Canada.These large orange and black insects(昆虫) brighten parks and gardens as they fly lightly among the flowers. What makes monarchs particularly interesting is that they migrate(迁飞) all the way to California or Mexico and back.. They are thought to be the only insect that does this.Every year in the late summer monarchs begin their journey to the south. Those heading for Mexico gosettle themselves in one of about fifteen places in a mountain forest filled with fir trees. Each place provides a winter home for millions of monarchs. The butterflies are so many that they often cover entire trees. When spring comes, they begin their long journey north.The question is often asked whether every butterfly makes the round-trip journey every year. And the answer is no. The average monarch lives about nine months. So one flying north might lay eggs in Louisiana and then die. The eggs of that generation may be found in Kentucky; the eggs of the next generation may end up in Wisconsin or Michigan. The last generation of the season, about the fourth, will make their way back to Mexico and restart the journey.Scientists learn about monarchs’ migration by catching and making marks on the insects. By recatching a monarch with such a mark and noticing where it came from, the next scientist can get to know things like the butterfly’s age and its routing(路线).56. One of the places where monarchs spend the winter is ____________.A. the Gulf of MexicoB. an area in MississippiC. a forest in MexicoD. a plain in Texas57. The routing of monarchs’ migration can be learned _______________.A. by examining the marks made on themB. by collecting their eggs in the mountainsC. by comparing their different eggsD. by counting the dead ones in the forests58. What is the subject discussed in the passage?A. Migration of monarchs.B. Scientists’ interest in monarchs.C. Winter home of monarchs.D. Life and death of monarchs.Passage BSYDNEY: As they sat sharing sweets beside a swimming pool in 1999, Shane Gould and Jessicah Schipper were simply getting along well, chatting about sport, life and “anything else that came up.”Yet in Sydney next month, they will meet again by the pool, and for a short time the friends will race against each other in the 50-meter butterfly(蝶泳) in the Australian championships at Homebush Bay Gould, now a 47-year-old mother of four, has announced she will be making a return to elite competition(顶级赛事) to swim the one event, having set a qualifying(合格的) time of 30.32 seconds in winning gold at last year’s United States Masters championships. Her comeback comes 32 years after she won three golds at the Munich Olymipics.Schipper, now a 17-year-old girl from Brishbane with a bright future of going to Athens for her Olympics, yesterday recalled(回忆) her time with Gould five years ago.“I was at a national youth camp on the Gold Coast and Shane had come along to talk to us and watch us train,” Schipper explained. “It seemed as if we had long been good friends. I don’t know why. We just started talking and it went from there.”“She had a lot to share with all of us at that camp. She told us stories about what it was like at big meets like the Olympics and what it’s like to be on an Australian team. It was really interesting.”Next time, things will be more serious. “I will still be swimming in the 50m butterfly at the nationals, so there is a chance that I could actually be competing against Shane Gould,” said Schipper, who burst onto the scene at last year’s national championships with second places in the 100m and 200m butterflies.59. What is the passage mainly about?A. Stories happening in swimming competitions.B. Two women swimmers winning Olympic golds.D. Friendship and competition between two swimmers.60. Could and Schipper are going to __________.A. talk about sport and lifeB. go back to elite competitionC. set a qualifying time and win goldD. take part in the same sports event61. Could won her three Olympic golds when she was __________.A. 15B. 17C. 22D. 3062. The underlined word “it “ in the fifth paragraph probably re fers to _________.A. the OlympicsB. the youth campC. the friendshipD. the Australian team63. What Schipper said showed that she _________.A. was no longer Gould’s friendB. had learned a lot from GouldC. was not interested in Gould’s storiesD. would not like to compete against GouldPassage CWith a good shopping position and the right amount(数量) of money, any educated person ought to be able to make a living out of a bookshop. It is not a difficult trade to learn and the large chain-stores can never force the small bookseller out of existence as they have done to the corner shop. But the hours of work are very long—I was only doing a part-time job, but my boss put in a seventy-hour week, besides regular journeys out of shopping hours to buy books.The real reason why I should not like to be back in the book trade for life, however, is that while I was in it I lost my love of books. A bookseller cannot always tell the truth about his books, and that gives him a dislike for them. There was a time when I really did love books—loved the sight and smell and feel of them –if they were fifty or more years old, that is. Nothing pleased me quite so much as to buy a bargain lot of them on sale for several pounds. There is a peculiar flavour(独特的味道) about the unexpected books you pick up in that kind of collection: little—known eighteenth—century poets, or out-of-date geography books. For occasional (偶尔) reading—in your bath, for example, or late at night when you are too tired to go to bed—there is nothing as good as a very old picture story—book.But as soon as I went to work in the bookshop I stopped buying books. Seen in a mass, five or ten thousand at a time, books were dull and even a little tiresome. Nowadays I do buy one occasionally, but only if it is a book that I want to read and can’t borrow, and I never buy rubbish.64. According to the passage, _____ is one of the necessary conditions to run a bookshop.A. an educated shop—ownerB. a good position at a street cornerC. a regular journey out of the shopD. the force of large chain-stores65. The author should not like to be back as a bookseller for life because ______.A. he hated his job of selling booksB. selling books was only a part-time jobC. the books in the shop gave him a dislikeD. he was unable to be honest about the books he sold66. The books preferred by the author should be those _______.A. stories making readers sleeplessC. peculiar ones with great expectationD. geography ones from the eighteenth century67. The author will only buy new books _________.A. if he feels dull and tiredB. after he gives up his job as booksellerC. which are interesting but hard to borrowD. when he throws away old onesPassage DMillions of aircrafts take off around the world every year. The skies they fly in seem limitless—miles of empty space. But, with the number of flights increasing each year, this emptiness no longer exists. Researchers in the world of aviation(航空) are worried about the increasing pressure on pilots and ground controllers and increasing collisions, occurring at or near an airport , have called attention to the need for more aids(辅助设备) to aviation control.People who travel the skies are not certain about air safety. A great deal of money is spent on new and bigger aircrafts and airports to deal with the vast increase in passengers travelling by air. Only a small percentage of this money is spent on navigation(导航) and other aids. Actually, suitable electronic equipment has long existed, and many companies market safety aids designed to make it safer for aircrafts to take off, fly any distance, and land, whatever the weather. Yet, there are two problems to be solved. The first is to get governments, airlines and airport officials to agree to basic levels of safety aids. The second problem is to find a way of meeting these basic requirements.But no matter how well the equipment works, operators of the equipment still play an important role. Communications between pilots and ground controllers are extremely important to air safety. It is worth pointing out that the mishearing or misunderstanding of instructions in English, and the use of another language, in an international conversation, have led to two recent aircraft accidents. A new type of instrument(仪器) called FLIGHTW ATCH would help pilots prevent airport collisions. It would be particularly helpful near airports.68. The increasing number of flights leads to the fact that _________.A. flying is no longer limited in the skyB. there is no empty space for aids to aviation controlC. piloting and controlling planes is getting more difficultD. the pressure on the ground becomes greater69. There is uncertainly about air safety because ______.A. planes become bigger for the increasing number of passengersB. money spent on electronic equipment is far from enoughC. suitable electronic equipment hasn’t been invented yetD. it is dangerous for planes to take off or land70. The underlined word “collisions” probably means _______.A. accidents in which two planes hit each otherB. misunderstandings between pilots and ground controllersC. quarrels among passengersD. breakdowns of new types of instrument71. It can be interred from the passage that ______.A. government s and officials have paid great attention to air safetyB. there should e more companies to sell new safety aidsC. English should be used in an international conversationPassage EArt museums are places where people can learn about various cultures(文化). The increasingly popular “design museums” that are opening today, however, perform quite a different role. Unlike most art museums, the design museum shows objects that are easily found by the general public. These museums sometimes even place things like fridges and washing machines in the center of the hall.People have argued that design museums are often made use of as advertisements for new industrial technology. But their role is not simply a matter of sales--it is the honoring of excellently invented products. The difference between the window of a department store and the showcase in a design museum is that the first tries to sell you something, while the second tells you the success of a sale.One advantage of design museums is that they are places where people feel familiar with the exhibits. Unlike the average art museum visitors, design museum visitors seldom feel frightened or puzzled(困惑). This is partly because design museums clearly show how and why mass—produced products work and look as they do, and how design has improved the quality of our lives. Art museum exhibits, on the other hand, would most probably fill visitors with a feeling that there is something beyond their understanding.In recent years, several new design museums have opened their doors. Each of these museums has tried to satisfy the public’s growing interest in the field with new ideas. London’s Design Museum, for example, shows a collection of mass—produced objects from Zippo lighters to electric typewriters to a group of Italian fish-tins. The choices open to design museums seem far less strict than those to art museums, and visitors may also sense the humorous(幽默的) part of our society while walking around such exhibits as interesting and unusually attractive toys collected in our everyday life.72. Showcases in design museums are different from store windows because they _________.A. show more technologically advanced productsB. help increase the sales of productsC. show why the products have sold wellD. attract more people than store windows do73. The author believes that most design museum visitors ________.A. do not admire mass—produced productsB. are puzzled with technological exhibitsC. dislike exhibits in art museumsD. know the exhibits very well74. The choices open to design museums _________.A. are not as strict as those to art museumsB. are not aimed to interest the publicC. may fail to bring some pleasure to visitorsD. often contain precious exhibits75. The best title for this passage is __________.A. The forms of design museumsB. The exhibits of design museumsC. The nature of design museumsD. The choices open to design museumsPart VI Writing (15 points)天津某股份公司欲招聘一名英语翻译,请你于2004年1月18日给该公司经理写封简短的应聘信,寄天津5964信箱,说明你的简历,并请经理给予答复。

Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits. When they fail, they resort to other tricks. Inventors have to overcome thousands of difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from the Parliament, the newspaper, and landlords. They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the engine would burst or that hot coals from it wouldSo it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.56、The word "those" in the first sentence refers to C、interests57、Why do big monopolies buy inventions? C、They want to make more money.58、Which of the following is not the very reason for the opposition to Stephenson's experiment? C、It would waste coal.59、The word "dream" in the first paragraph refers to B、inventors' plans for invention60、What is the main idea of this paragraph? D、Oppositions to Stephenson the inventor.(二)、As a young girl, Elizabeth Barrett (Browning英国作家勃朗宁) ruptured a blood vessel on the lungs which did not heal. The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter and she went Devonshire for restoration. Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited by mild sea breezes of Torquay.One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast. Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef; and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered. None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search. This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett. Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly. Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London. This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.61、What sort of climate did Elizabeth's doctor prescribe? A、Temperate.62、How many people were drowned when the boat sank? C、Three63、How did the tragedy affect Elizabeth?

And the word "television" means "seeing far".Television works in much the same way as radio. In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic (invisible light) waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry.The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects. Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations. At first television programs were broadcast in black-and -white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and more programs are telecast "live" from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecasts now come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic "moon walk" to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.56、Television is said to be the modern wonder of electronics, because C、it brings the world into people's own home in sight and sound57、Television became an industry in D、the 1950s58、The word "incalculable" means A、very great59、The development of science and technology made it possible for television programs to D、be telecast in full color60、The launching of communications satellites made it possible for people to C、watch the 1964 Olympic Games in T okyo(二)、The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way.He is sure that he is alone and hopeless. He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates. He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future. He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn't get satisfaction from things he used to enjoy. Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common. The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual. He may lose his appetite and lose weight, or eat more than normally and gain weight. Another particular sign, seen in women, is crying spells. Many of these spells are short and common.Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case. From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live. He may even attempt suicide.So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness. Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide. But the relationship is striking. It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed. Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person. The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization. After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed person. Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness. Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed.61、Depressives share the feeling that they C、have lost something62、Depressive illness may be considered the only mental illness A、which is fatal63、Of the people who attempt suicide, C、most suffer from depression64、The greatest risk of suicide occurs C、just after hospitalization65、Statistics show that A、more men than women commit suicide(三)、It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had obtained his transportation at that unusual hour by promising an extra fare. While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure. He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town. He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this. The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs; his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father. In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung. Brown, curly hair, well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment. The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day. As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.66、The story took place in D、winter67、The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because A、he wanted to make extra money.68、The stockings that Robin wore were obviously C、handmade69、From the way he looked, it was evident that Robin was B、a country boy70、How did Robin appear as he walked into the town? A、He was cheerful and excited.六、写作题(共15分)Directions: For this part, you are required to write a composition on the topic My Way to Spend Holidays.

Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits. When they fail, they resort to other tricks. Inventors have to overcome thousandsof difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from the Parliament, the newspaper, and landlords. They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the enginewould burst or that hot coals from it would set fire to their houses.So it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.1. The word "those" in the first sentence refers to2. Why do big monopolies buy inventions?3. Which of the following is not the very reason for the opposition to Stephenson's experiment?4.

While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure. He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town. He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this. The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs; his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father. In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung. Brown, curly hair,well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment. The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day. As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.1. The story took place in ___ .2. The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because __ .3. The stockings that Robin wore were obviously _____ .4. From the way he looked, it was evident that Robin was ____ .5. How did Robin appear as he walked into the town?第1空选项A. springB.sumC. fallD. winter第2空选项A. he wanted to make extra money.B. he saw that Robin was young and rich.C. he was going to row across the river anyway.D. he felt sorry for him because Robin looked poor.第3空选项A. worn-outB. very expensiveC. handmadeD. much too big第4空选项A. a wealthy merchant's sonB. a country boyC. a soldierD. a foreigner第5空选项A. He was cheerful and excited.B. He was tired.C. He seemed very sad.D. He seemed frightened by the strange surroundings.40、Television ,the modern wonder of electronics, brings the world into your own home in sight and sound,1. And the word "television" means "seeing far".Television works in much the same way as radio. In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic (invisible light) waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchershad turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry.The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects.Some hospitals use TV for medical studentsto get close-up views of operations. At first televisionprograms were broadcast in black-and -white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communicationssatellite, more and more programs are telecast "live" from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecastsnow come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic "moon walk" to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.1. Television is said to be the modern wonder of electronics, because ______ .2. Television became an industry in ______ .3. The word "incalculable" means ______ .4. The development of science and technology made it possible for television programs to ______ .5. The launching of communications satellites made it possible for people to■第1空选项A. it is an industryB. it broadcasts most of the programs in colorC. it brings the world into people's own home in sight and soundD. it influences people's thoughts第2空选项A. 佃20B. 佃69C. the l920sD. the 佃50s第3空选项A. very greatB. uncertainC. hard to tellD. very small第4空选项A. be telecast againB. be kept for later useC. be put on video tapeD. be telecast in full color第5空选项A. get close up views of operationsB. learn various subjectsC. watch the 1964 Olympic Games in TokyoD. watch local programs41、Directions: For this part, you are required to write a composition on the topic Smoking Is Dangerous to Health Your composition should be based on the following outline. Your composition should be no less than 120 words.Outline: 1. smoking is dangerous to the smoker's health2. smoking is dangerous to other people's health3. smoking is a bad habitWhy do so many people smoke? Studies have prove n the dan gerous affects of both first-ha nd and sec on d-ha nd smoke on the body. There are so many laws and regulati ons now that ban smok ing in public places and coun tries all over the world are now adopti ng these laws as well. It's not only a bad habit; it's an expe nsive one as well.On the one hand ,It is reported that every year smoking causesmillions of death around the world. On the other hand, smok ing pollutes the air. Just imagi ne that you sit in a restaura nt full of smoke, how can you enjoy your meal there? Besides, smoking is bad for the elevation of a country ' s image in the world.I believe if smok ing is banned in all the public places, most of us will breathe in more fresh and clean air. And the health condition of all the people will be greatly improved.。

As a camp, I believe competition is a way of nurturing one's ability and talent in such a way that the person is encouraged to excel more than other skilled person. In some cases and situation, competition may mean a struggle between two or more different competitors.In the workplace, competition has received some bad press in recent years. Greed and layoffs are the two most frequently touted sins of competition. These two sins, however, can always be minimized with new rules (if the appropriate governing bodies are willing to live up to this responsibility of making such new rules) such as increased taxes on the greedy and work replacement/ training/ length-of-workweek rules for employees.。

The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter and she went Devonshire for restoration. Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited bymild sea breezes of Torquay.One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast. Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef; and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered. None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search. This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett. Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly. Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London. This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.61.What sort of climate did Elizabeth's doctor prescribe?A. Temperate.62.How many people were drowned when the boat sank?C. Three63. How did the tragedy affect Elizabeth?D. It affected her both physically and emotionally.64.

For Rota, it wasn't a difficult decision: "The prize wasn't ours to take."Coin Stars"College students are lazy, but they also want to help," says University of Pennsylvania graduate Dana Hork.

Then the team movedup to the top division after winning all its games, and the 39 started.

And the word "television" means "seeing far".Television works in much the same way as radio. In radio, sound is changed into electromagnetic (invisible light) waves which are sent through the air. Experiments leading to modern television took place more than a hundred years ago. By the 1920s inventors and researchers had turned the early theories into working models.Yet it took another thirty years for TV to become an industry. The influence of TV on the life of people is incalculable: it can influence their thoughts and their way of life. It can also add to their store of knowledge. Educational TV stations offer teaching in various subjects. Some hospitals use TV for medical students to get close-up views of operations. At first television programs were broadcast in black-and -white. With the development of science and technology, the problem of how to telecast them in full color was solved and by the middle 1960s the national networks were broadcasting most of their programs in color.The programs that people watch are not only local and national ones. Since the launching of the first communications satellite, more and moreprograms are telecast "live" from all over the world. People in San Francisco were able to watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. And live telecasts now come from outer space. In 1969, the first astronauts to land on the moon televised their historic "moon walk" to viewers on the earth. Since then, astronauts have regularly sent telecast to the earth.56. Television is said to be the modern wonder of electronics, because _______.C. it brings the world into people's own home in sight and sound57. Television became an industry in _______. D. the 1950s58. The word "incalculable" means______. A. very great59. The development of science and technology made it possible for television programs to _______.D. be telecast in full color60. The launching of communications satellites made it possible for people to _______.C. watch the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo(二)The seriously depressed person sees himself in a very negative way. He is sure that he is alone and hopeless. He often blames himself for ordinary faults and shortcomings which he exaggerates. He is very discouraged about himself, the world, and his future. He becomes less interested in what is going on around him and doesn't get satisfaction fromthings he used to enjoy. Fatigue and early morning sleeplessness are quite common. The depressed person may want to sleep more than usual. He may lose his appetite and lose weight, or eat more than normally and gain weight. Another particular sign, seen in women, is crying spells. Many of these spells are short and common.Depressives share the feeling that they have lost something very important to them, though often this is not really the case. From a feeling of loss, the depressed person progresses to false ideas that he is a loser and will always be a loser, that he must be worthless and perhaps not fit to live. He may even attempt suicide.So many very depressed people attempt suicide that depressive illness may be considered the only fatal mental illness. Not all those suffering from depressive illness do attempt suicide. But the relationship is striking. It is estimated that as many as 75 percent of those who attempt suicide are seriously depressed. Other studies show that the person hospitalized for depression is about 36 times more likely to commit suicide than is the non-depressed person. The greatest risk occurs during or immediately after hospitalization. After age 40, the possibility of suicide increases in very depressed person. Almost twice as many women as men suffer from depressive illness. Almost twice as many women as men attempt suicide, but three times more men than women succeed.61. Depressives share the feeling that they______. C. have lost something62. Depressive illness may be considered the only mental illness_____.A. which is fatal63. Of the people who attempt suicide, _____. C. most suffer from depression64. The greatest risk of suicide occurs ____. C. just after hospitalization65. Statistics show that______. A. more men than women commit suicide(三)It was not yet eleven o'clock when a boat crossed the river with a single passenger who had obtained his transportation at that unusual hour by promising an extra fare. While the youth stood on the landing-place searching in his pocket for money, the ferryman lifted a lantern, by the aid of which, together with the newly risen moon, he took a very accurate survey of the stranger's figure. He was a young man of barely eighteen years, evidently country bred, and now, as it seemed, on his first visit to town. He was wearing a tough gray coat, which was in good shape, but which had seen many winters before this. The garments under his coat were well constructed of leather, and fitted tightly to a pair of muscular legs; his stockings of blue yarn must have been the work of a mother or sister, and on his head was a three-cornered hat, which in its better days had perhaps sheltered the grayer head of the lad's father. In his left hand was a walking stick, and his equipment was completed by a leather bag not so abundantly stocked as to inconvenience the strong shoulders on which it hung. Brown, curly hair, well-shaped features, bright, cheerful eyes were nature's gifts, and worth all that art could have done for his adornment. The youth, whose name was Robin, paid the boatman, and感谢你的观看then walked forward into the town with a light step, as if he had not already traveled more than thirty miles that day. As he walked, he surveyed his surroundings as eagerly as if he were entering London or Madrid, instead of the little metropolis of a New England colony.66.The story took place in ____. D. winter67. The boatman was willing to take Robin across the river because___.A. he wanted to make extra money.68. The stockings that Robin wore were obviously _____. C. handmade69. From the way he looked, it was evident that Robin was ____. B. a country boy感谢你的观看。

The other teams, disappointed, were on the bus heading home. And then Westborough instructor Greg Rota noticed something wrong with one of the score cards. A 9 had been recorded as a 7.

Big monopolies try to buy inventions and turn them to their own profits. When they fail, they resort to other tricks. Inventors have to overcome thousands of difficulties put in their path before they can see their dreams realized.When George Stephenson was experimenting with the stream engine, there was much opposition from theParliament, the newspaper, and landlords. They claimed that the noise and the smoke would kill cows, horses and sheep, that the engine would burst or that hot coals from it would set fire to their houses.So it was a very difficult matter for George Stephenson to persuade the people that trains could go on smooth rails, could pull carriages and wagons full of people and goods, and that there was no great danger of accidents.However, he was able to do it, and the first train driven by Stephenson himself showed that the newly invented steam engine was a complete success.66.

The physician consigned her to a milder climate for the winter and she went Devonshire for restoration. Among the members of her family who accompanied her to those healing shores was her eldest brother.For a whole year they lived side by side in affectionate companionship, she all the while being greatly benefited by mild sea breezes of Torquay.One summer morning her brother went board a small sailboat with two friends for a trip of several hours around the coast. Just as the vessel came in sight of the window where Miss Barrett sat watching, the boat struck a sunken reef; and all who were in it went down and perished in the sea, before assistant could be rendered. None of the bodies were ever found although the whole village, full of sympathy, assembled in search. This was the tragedy which utterly prostrated for some years afterwards the health and soul of Elizabeth Barrett. Somehow she felt that she herself had in some measure been the cause of all this horror, and she suffered accordingly. Her whole being seemed shattered, and a year longer elapsed before, she was able to be more to London. This fatal event, which so saddened her youth gave also a still deeper devotional feeling to hue of sorrow so apparent in many of her earlier pieces.71.What sort of climate did Elizabeth's doctor prescribe?A.
