Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)
Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet。
Passage 1
Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage:
Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. “What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,” said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. (76) The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。
Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation(电磁辐射) from cell phones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings do not shed any light on whether cell phones cause cancer. “This study does not in any way indicate that. What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures。” Use of t he devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1980s, with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide。
Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study bu the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this. Volkow’s team studied 47 people who had their brain examined while a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off. While there was no complete change in brain metabolism, they found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell phone antenna when the phone was on。
(77)Experts said the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care. “ Although the biolog ical significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation,” Henry Lai of the University of Washington in the U.S. and Dr. Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden, wrote in an article in JAMA. “Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects。” They wrote。

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
Human beings have always had an ability to attend to several things at once.
(78) Nor is electronic multitasking entirely new: We’ve been driving while listening to car radios since they became popular in the 1930s. but there is no doubt that multitasking has reached a kind of warp speed in the era of Web-enabled computers, when it has become routine to conduct several IM(及时通讯)conversations, watch TV and use the computer all at once。
But what’s the impact of this media consumption? And how are these multitasking devices changing how kids learn, reason and communicate with one another ?Social scientists and educators are just beginning to deal with these questions, but the researchers already have some strong opinions。
(79)Although multitasking kids may be better prepared in some ways for today’s fast-paced work placed, Many scientists are positively alarmed by the trend。 Kids that are instant messaging while doing homework, playing games online and watching TV, aren’t going to do well in the long run。
On the positive side, multitasking students tend to be extraordinarily good at finding and using information. And probably because modern childhood centers around visual(视觉的)rather than print media, they are especially skilled at analyzing visual data and images。
Many educators and psychologists say parents need to actively ensure that their teenagers break free of uncontrollable engagement with screens and spend time in the physical company of human beings—a growing challenge not just because
technology offers such a handy option but because so many teenagers and college students say overcommitted(任务过量的)schedules drives much of their multitasking。
Just as important is for parents and educator to teach kids that it’s valuable, even essential, to occasionally slow down, unplugs and take time to enjoy life beyond the screen。
6. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. How is multitasking define (定义)in the information age?
B. How do people see new technology and the social change it brings about?
C. How does technology change modern family life?
D. What’s the impact of multitasking on young people?
7. The expression “warp speed” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to____。
A. Low speed
B. Too much time alone。
C. high speed
D. steady speed
8. According to some teenagers and college students ,what causes their multitasking?
A. Overcommitted schedules
B. Too much time alone
C. Inability to focus
D. Fear of being neglected
9. According to the passage, which of the following statement is TRUE?
A. Humans have begun to engage in the multitasking behaviors since the information age。
B. Multitasking is a critical skill that students are required to learn at school。
C. Only parents can help their kids to get rid of the multitasking habits。
D. multit asking may prepare students for the reality of today’s fast-paces work environment。
10. What do educators and psychologist advise parents to do their multitasking kids?
A. To cut off home internet connection。
B. To seek medical treatment。
C. To encourage their kids to have some social life。
D. to help their kids to set personal goals
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
The nuclear power emergency at a Japanese atomic power plant last March could lead to a major re-examination in European countries that are already building such plants or are considering a shift from fossil(化石) fuels to nuclear energy to fight climate change. With the terrible accident 25 years ago in Chernobyl(切尔诺贝利) beginning to fade in European Memories, governments across Europe have grown more open to using more nuclear power. Enthusiasm for nuclear power is particularly strong in Eastern Europe, which wants to move away from dependence on Russian oil and natural gas, and on heavily polluting coal-fired power plants. Eastern governments have begun improving existing nuclear plants or are building or planning new ones. But as Japan struggled to deal with her nuclear crises, discussion about the good and the bad of nuclear power became heated。
(80)In Germany, nuclear power has been a repeatedly argued and widely felt issue for decades。 Up to 70 percent of Germans oppose nuclear power. Recently about 40,000 people turned out to form a human chain near a nuclear plant to protest government policies on nuclear power. “The accident in Japan could lead to a major rethink in Europe,” said Henrik Paulitz of the International Doctors for the Prevention of Nuclear War. “Governments have not been quite open about the safety levels of the nuclear power plants。”
Chancellor(总理) Angela Merkel heads a center-right unity government that supports the use of nuclear power. Her government recently made a disputed decision to extend the life of the country’s 17 nuclear power plants by an average of 12 years. She will now face more pressure the change that policy. She called an emergency
meeting with her senior ministers. “We know how safe our plants are and that we do not face a threat from such a serious earthquake or violent tidal wave,” Mrs. Merkel said after the meeting. “We will learn what we can from the events in Japan。”

真题点评
2011年上半年北京地区成人本科学士学位英语(成人三级英语)将于5月7日进行。考试结束后，北京安通学校特邀成人英语三级辅导专家为广大考生对2011年上半年北京地区成人本科学士学位英语考试进行真题点评。
真题点评：
2011年上半年的北京地区成人本科学位英语考试上午9点在北京及全国各考点举行，63所学校的8.2万名考生走进考场。此次考试北京地区共设置了59个考点，5.4万考生在北京地区参加考试。考生中，66%为各成人高校的考生，其余为电大系统和网络教育学院考生。
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语考试的试题共有5部分85道题，分别是阅读理解、词语用法与语法结构、挑错、完形填空和英汉互译。其中，阅读理解共15道题，词语用法和语法结构有30道题，挑错有10道题，完形填空有20道题，翻译有10道题。
关于本次考试，阅读部分今年呈现出一种非常明显的特点，我们三级考试的文章更加呈现出一种时代的特色，三篇文章，第一个，关于手机的辐射，对于人的大脑到底有没有影响，尤其能不能形成大脑肿瘤，这是一个很热门的话题。另外是关于在电子时代，人同时在做很多事情，比如边上网边听音乐，还是看着东西，这些对于儿童，孩子，年轻人发展的影响，这也是时代感很强的。
另一个是关于日本地震以后的核危机，这个时代感是最强的，难度也有所增加。不过，如果按照原来我们辅导的课堂里讲的以及发给保过班学生的阅读得分技巧来做还是非常管用的，如果学生真的理解，要答对80%以上还是很轻松的。举个例子，关于保过班里说过选项长度的问题，长的选项还是要关注的，你看绝大多数选项都是那几个长的。3篇阅读理解共15道题，其中完全按照最长的选项作为答案的话，不看全文，就可以直接做对10道题，30分的阅读我们可以得20分！这在保过班考前说明里有重要的提示，相信考生会很受益。
下面说主旨大意题，要注意转折，第二段就是这样，第一段说人类可以同时做很多事情，但他一转折 but，你只要碰见but主旨大意就出来了。只要考生充分领会答题技巧，就没问题。包括说主旨大意题，证物判断题，一定特别仔细小心，有时候与文章就一字之差，这些就没问题，按照我们强调的去做，80%---90%没问题。
另外词汇和结构题和以往基本相当，也没有超出原来讲的范围，包括倒装句，包括 or,否则，关系代词啊，挑错题也没超出。大部分的考点还是在人大红宝书的应试指南里查询到，相信之前充分运用人大三级红宝书的考生，这次的词汇语法的单选题的得分会有很大的提高。阅读理解的
材料没有偏题没有怪题，比以往更合理。
初步预测，本次考试的考生的通过率有可能会比往年低一两个百分点。
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语考试近年实行网上评卷。试卷的主观题和客观题都将输入计算机。客观题部分的答题卡由机器评阅，主观题由评卷老师网上评判。

Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.

In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby’s IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.

2017 年 11 月北京成人学士学位英语考试真题及答案 Part I (30%) Passage 1 In 2014, older Americans fell 29 million times, leading to 7 million injuries, according to a report published last week. About 2.8 million cases were treated in emergency department, and approximately 800,000 seniors went on to be hospitalized. More than 27,000 falls led to death. (76) And the problem is getting more and more serious. “ Older adult falls are increasing and, sadly, often indicate the end of independence, said Dr. Tom Frieden.The falls are preventable, Frieden stressed.He said individuals, families and health care providers can take steps to resist the trend. Dr. Wolf-Klein is a medical professor in New York.She said one concern is that seniors who have experienced a fall alone at home don’ t tell anyone. When that happens, prevention effor ts don’ t begin and they’ re at risk for additional falls that lead to broken bones and brain injuries. “ Elderly patients tend not to report falls to their families, or even doctors. A fall is a very frightening thing that you keep quiet about. They think if they mention it, they are afraid that they will move to a nursing home or need assistants to help out in the house, said Wolf-Klein. It ’also a status issue and may make someone feel that they ’ reweaker than they really are, she explained. When someone does fall and hurt themselves,they ’ reoften never the same, Wolf- Klein said.“ You can develop chronic(慢性的)problems. After a fall, a percentage of the population will never return to walking around. People used to taking the subway, now they’ re in a wheelchair, or they may need help going to the bathroom. They become frailer and lose independence,” she said. 1.Which of the following is TRUE? A.In 2014, older adult falls caused 7 million injuries. B.In 2016, Americans fell 29 million times. https://www.doczj.com/doc/4f2425282.html,st year, 2.8 million Americans had emergency treatment. https://www.doczj.com/doc/4f2425282.html,st month, more than 27,000 older Americans were hospitalized. 2.From the passage we learn that older adult falls ___. A.Are decreasing B.Can’ t be avoided C.Must be treated in hospitals https://www.doczj.com/doc/4f2425282.html,ually imply the end of independence 3.The word frailer in Paragraph 5 probably means ___.

The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to a research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 percent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune. The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person’s general disposition. Other researc h has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a “glass half-full” or “half-empty” approach to life. “What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,” said Professor Richard Wiseman, who led the research. The pattern of the result, with those born in spring and in summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said. 1.According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky or not depends on the following factors EXCEPT _______. A. one’s objective success B. one’s general disposition C. one’s attitude to life D. one’s place of birth
成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案 2011.11.05 PartⅠReading Comprehension （30%） Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating（迁徙的）route , can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,”said https://www.doczj.com/doc/4f2425282.html,urel, an architect.（76）“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.” About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat（栖息地）loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year. （77）As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too, have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process. There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet（紫外线的）signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and net are the main options available. Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don't necessarily have to treat every window,”https://www.doczj.com/doc/4f2425282.html,urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.”The Jacob Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. New York is a city of glass towers. B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds. C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings. D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States. 2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds? A. Climate change B. Habitat loss C. Lack of food D. Crashing into buildings. 3. What does the word “fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Choices B. Explanations C. Solutions D. Developments 4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. A. Dot patterns B. Shades C. Nets D. Covers 5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes. B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes. C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year. D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages. Passage 2 Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage: Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations（革新）are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital（数字的），they are impatient to get on with life. The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship（企业家才能）education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage: After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. (76) The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. (77) If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep! 1. A good title for this passage is . A. Sleep B. Good C. Dreams D. Work and Rest 2. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means .
