Part IReading Comprehension (30 % )
Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfin-ished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.You should de-cide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
Passage 1
Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage :
On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln went to Gettysburg in Pennsylvania to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery. The Civil War was still going on. There was much criticism of Presi-dent Lincoln at the time. He was not at all popular. He had been invited to speak at Gettysburg on-ly out of politeness. The principal speaker was to be Edward Everett, a famous statesman and speaker of the day. Everett was a handsome man and very popular everywhere.
It is said that Lincoln prepared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg. Late that night, alone in his hotel room and tired out, he again worked briefly on the speech. The next day Everett spoke first. He spoke for an hour and 57 minutes. His speech was a perfect example of the rich oratory of the day. Then Lincoln rose. The crowd of 15,000 people at first paid little attention to him. He spoke for only nine minutes. At the end there was little applause. Lincoln turned to a friend and remarked,"I have failed again". On the train back to Washington, he said sadly, "That speech was a fiat failure, and the people are disappointed".
Some newspapers at first criticized the speech, but little by little as people redid the speech they began to understand better. (76) They began to appreciate its
simplicity and its deep mean-ing. It was a speech which only Abraham Lincoln could have made.
Today, every American school child learns Lincoln' s Gettysburg Address by heart. Now eve-ryone thinks of it as one of the greatest speeches ever given in American history.

Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
(77) In what now seems like the prehistoric times of computer history, the early post-war era( 站后时期 ), there was a quite widespread concern that computers would take over the world from man one day. Already today, less than forty years later, as computers are relieving us of more and more of the routine tasks in business and in our personal lives, we are facing with a less dramatic but also less foreseen problem. People tend to be over-trusting (过分信任) of computers and are re-luctant to challenge their authority. Indeed, they behave as if they were hardly aware that wrong buttons may be pushed, or that a computer may simply malfunction(失灵).
(78) Obviously, there would be no point in investing (投入) in a computer if you had to check all its answers, but people should also rely on their own internal computers and check the machine when they have the feeling that something has gone wrong. Questioning and routine double checks must continue to be as much a part of good business as they were in pre-computer days.
Maybe each computer should come with the following warning: for all the help this computer may provide, it should not be seen as a substitute for fundamental thinking and reasoning skills.
6. What is the main purpose of this passage?
A. To look back to the early days of computers.
B. To explain what technical problems may occur with computers.
C. To discourage unnecessary investment in computers.
D. To warn against the blindness to the probable shortcomings of computers.
7. The passage recommends those dealing with computers to__________.
A. be reasonably doubtful about them
B. check all their answers
C. substitute them for basic thinking
D. use them for business purpose only
8. An "internal computer" ( Para. 2 ) is__________.
A. a computer used exclusively by one company for its own problems
B. a person’s store of knowledge and the ability to process it
C. the most up to date in home computer a company can buy
D. a computer from the post-war era which is very reliable
9. The passage suggests that the present day problem with regard to computers is __________.
A. challenging
B. psychological
C. dramatic
D. over-trusting
10. It can be inferred from the passage that the author would disapprove of__________.
A. computer science courses in high schools
B. businessmen and women who use pocket calculators
C. maintenance(连续不断) checks on computers
D. companies which depend entirely on computers
Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
To swim across the English Channel takes at least nine hours. It' s a hard work and it makes you short of breath. To fly over the Channel takes only twenty minutes ( as long as you' re not held up at the airport), but it' s an expensive way to travel. You can travel by hovercraft if you don' t mind the noise, and that takes forty minutes. Otherwise you can go by boat, if you forget your sea-sickness ills. All these means
of transport have their problems and the weary( 不耐烦的)travel-er often dreams of being able to drive to France in his own car. "Not possible", you say. Well,wait a minute. People are once again considering the idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge. This time, the Greater London Council is looking into the possibility of building a Channel link straight to London. (79) A bridge would cost far more than a tunnel, but you would be able to go by rail or by car on a bridge, whereas a tunnel would provide a rail link only.
Why is this idea being discussed again? Is Britain becoming more conscious of the need for links with Europe as a result of joining the EEC( 欧共体) ? Well, perhaps. The main reason,though, is that a tunnel or bridge would reach the twenty square kilometers of London' s disused dockland(船坞地) ~ A link from London to the continent would stimulate trade and re-vitalize(使…重新有活力) the port, and would make London a main trading center in Europe. (80)With a link over the Channel, you could buy your fish and chips in England, and be able to eat them in France while they were still warm!
11. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A. Swimming across the Channel takes less than four hours.
B. The idea of a Channel tunnel or bridge is a very new one.
C. It is considered to be more difficult to swim across the channel than any other means.
D. A tunnel or bridge would only reach as far as the coast.
12. A tunnel would be__________.
A. less expensive to be built than a bridge
B. more expensive to be built than a bridge
C. less expensive to be built than a rail
D. more expensive to be built than a rail
13. If they built a Channel tunnel, you would__________.
A. neither take a train nor go by car
B. only take a train
C. either take a train or go by car
D. only take a bus
14. It can be concluded that many of London' s dockyards are__________.
A. not used
B. seriously blocked
C. fully used
D. opened again
15. Channel link would__________.
A. allow us to buy fish and chips in France
B. make the journey from Europe to England dangerous but easier and faster
C. decrease more trade for London' s dockyards
D. make London more prosperous again

Part IReading Comprehension
Passage l
1．B事实细节题。第一段中提到林肯总统当时受到了很多批评，而且一点也不受欢迎。criti —cal“批评的，爱挑剔的”，所以A不对。
2．C推理判断题。根据文章第一段的第五句，人们之所以出于礼貌请他做演讲，就是因为他是总统。
3．B推理判断题。从第二段可知，林肯是在路上写的演讲稿，并且当晚只是“briefly(简单地)”修改了一下。由此可推断出他当时很忙，没有充足的准备时间。
4．D事实细节题。由三、四段可知，尽管林肯的演讲最初并未成功，但这篇简短的演说后来深入人心，不能说是彻底的失败。
5．D事实细节题。根据最后一句话，林肯的演讲是美国历史上最伟大的演讲之一，但并未说是最伟大的演讲，所以选D。
Passage 2
6．D归纳概括题。写此文的目的可从文章的内容概括出来。文章第一段讲的是当代人们过分信任计算机；第二段讲人类应该依赖自己的大脑，不应把计算机看作是思考技能的替代品。综上可知防止人们盲目地信任计算机才是本文的写作目的。
7．A事实细节题。由第二段可知，作者在建议人们应依靠自己的大脑，对待计算机要持ques —tioning(敢于怀疑)的态度并采取double check(仔细检查)的手段。所以选A，意思是要持理性怀疑态度，也就是不要盲目地完全依赖它。作者并没有说完全不信任计算机，要
逐一核对答案，这样计算机恐怕真的要扔掉了，所以B曲解了作者的用意。C(用电脑代替人脑)是作者在文中最反对的；D(仅将电脑用于商业)太片面了。
8．B推理判断题。人类自己所拥有的“内部计算机”当然是指大脑以及大脑内所存储的知识了。这也体现了作者反对用电脑代替人脑的写作目的。
9．D事实细节题。0ver—trusting“过分信任的”。正如作者在第一段第三句所述，人类对待计算机的问题主要在于过分相信它并不愿挑战它的权威性。challengin9“挑战的”；psy-chological“心理的”；dramatic“戏剧性的”。
10．D推理判断题。此类题须弄清作者的真正意图。正如前面所述，作者提倡的并不是完全不信任计算机，而是不要盲目地完全依赖它。A、B、C三项都是以不同方式使用计算机，而作者并未完全否定计算机的使用，所以这三项都不能选。只有D(完全依赖计算机)才是作者不赞成的。
Passage 3
11．C推理判断题。可用排除法。开篇第一句已清楚地说明游过英吉利海峡至少要九小时，所以A说少于四小时是不对的；第一段最后一句中有一个非常重要的词，就是again。既然是again就说明建隧道、修大桥已不是新想法了，B也随之被淘汰；根据文章第二段第一句，隧道可直达伦敦，不只到海岸线，D也排除了。而C是正确的，游过去当然要比坐船、乘飞机困难多了。
12．A事实细节题。根据文章第二段第二句，建隧道要比建大桥便宜得多。
13．B事实细节题。根据文章第二段第二句，隧道里只能供火车行走。
14．A事实细节题。根据文章第三段第四句，伦敦的船坞地都是disused(废弃不用的)。15．D事实细节题。文章最后一段倒数第二句，这条路能够激活贸易，使伦敦成为欧洲的一个商业中心，所以当然会使伦敦繁荣起来。A显然低估了这条通路的作用；B、C谈到的作用都是负面的。

28．B本题考查倒装的用法。当as表示“虽然，尽管”引导让步状语从句的时候，其所在分句往往用倒装，将表语前置。though也可这样用。如：Clever as／though he was，he failedin the exam．尽管他聪明，考试却没及格。句意为：尽管他还年轻，却知道什么是正确的事情。
29．A本题考查hang的两种过去式。hang表示“悬挂”时过去式和过去分词都是hung；表
示“吊死”时过去式和过去分词都是hanged。此句中hang表示“悬挂”。句意为：因为昨天天气好，她把洗的衣服挂在花园里。
30．B本题考查形近词辨析。economical(adj．)“节约的，经济的”；economic(adj．)“经济(上)的，经济学的”；economy(n．)“经济”；economize(v．)“节约，节省”。句意为：他在用钱上很节省。
31．B本题考查同义词辨析。fall down“(因不小心等)跌倒，摔倒”；drop“落下，下降”；slip专指“滑倒”；jump“跳”。句意为：婴儿学走路时经常跌倒。
32．D本题考查except，except for，besides，beside之间的区别。besides“除…之外还有…”；except“除…之外(不包括在内)”；except for“整体除去某一点”；beside“在…旁边”。句意为：除了英语之外，她还学日语和法语。
33．D本题考查动词搭配。do one’s homework“做作业”；make mistakes“犯错误”。句意为：做作业，还要保证别犯错误。
34．D本题考查近义词组辨析。be composed of“由…组成”；comprise“包括…，=be com．posed of”，本身不用被动语态；be made of“由…制成”；contain“包含”，但该词未用第三人称单数。句意为：我们所居住的单元房只有三个房间。
35．A本题考查动词辨析。extend“扩充，延伸，伸展(领域，范围等)”；increase“增加(数量等)”；rise“升高”。句意为：由于公司要做更多的生意，有必要扩建厂房。
36．D本题考查固定搭配。on guard“守卫，警惕，提防”。句意为：一个国家必须时刻提防间谍和入侵者。
37．D本题考查近义词辨析。otherwise(adv．)“另外，否则”；0ther(actj．／pron．)“其他的”；else(adj．)“别的，其他的”。句意为：我们必须在9点整离开晚会，否则上班就迟到了。
38．D本题考查lie和lay的过去式和过去分词。lay表示“放置，产卵”，过去式和过去分词是“laid，laid”；lie表示“躺，位于”过去式和过去分词是“lay，lain”。句意为：他清楚地记得昨天把书放在她的书桌上了。
39．D本题考查反意疑问句。在I think，I believe，I suppose，I suspect等结构时，附加疑问部分和that分句中的谓语动词保持对应关系，但要注意否定的转移。
40．B本题考查动词辨析。oblige“迫使”；result(in／from)“导致，由于”(后接名词或动名词)；demand“要求”；recommend“推荐”。句意为：航班的取消迫使许多旅客在机场过夜。
41．A本题考查分词的用法。主句的主语the three students与分词的动作judge之间存在被动关系，即the three students被断定是最好的，所以应用过去分词做状语。句意为：由于在最近的理科竞赛中被认为是表现最好的，这三名同学共获奖学金21，000美元。42．B本题考查动词搭配。tum to“向…求助”；turn up“出现，调高(音量等)”；turn on “打开(电器等)”；turn over“翻身”。句意为：我们吃的食物和喝的饮料中都含盐；我们不用使用盐瓶中的盐就能从自然资源中满足身体所需。
43．A本题考查would rather的用法。would rather后接三种形式：would rather do sth．(宁愿做…)；would rather do sth．than do sth．；would rather that．．．(宁愿…)。句意为：无论多么小，我都想要一个自己的房问，而不愿和别人住在一起。
44．B本题考查连词词组的用法。SO long as“只要…就…”；in case“以防…”；as far as “根据…，就…而言”。句意为：只要让他用他自己的方法做，他肯定能按时完成工作。45．D本题考查名词辨析。dimension“长、宽、厚、高度”；volume“卷，册，体积，量，
大量，音量”；magnitude“大小，数量，巨大，广大，量级”；scope“范围，范畴，领域；余地，机会”。句意为：依我看，你可以通过主动参加的方式来扩大改进范围。
PartⅢIdentification
46．B语态错误，应改为proves。prove(to be)sth．／adj．／that…“被证明…”，本身包含被动的意思，所以通常不用be proved。
47．A单复数错误，应改为three-field。“数词+名词”构成的合成形容词中，名词要用单数。如：all 80-year-—old man。
48．C定语从句引导词错误，应改为in which或that或省略引导词。当way表示“方式”，后接定语从句的时候，引导词有三种：in which，that或省略。
49．B虚拟语气用法错误，应改为(should)meet。suggest表建议时，从句中用虚拟，其构成是should+动词原形，should可省。
50．D虚拟语气用法错误，应改为(should)be respected。在it is necessary／important that…(做…是必要的／重要的)句型中，要用虚拟语气，其构成是should+动词原形，should 可省。
51．B主谓搭配错误，应改为confirms。主语从句做主语，谓语用单数。
52．C介词搭配错误，应改为to。inferior to“次于，劣于”。、
53．D不定代词用法错误，应改为anything。hardly是否定副词，所以本句属于否定句。在否定、疑问、条件句中应用anything，不能用something。
54．A时态错误，应改为lend。will之后跟动词原形。
55．D主谓搭配错误，应改为is。physics“物理”。尽管以“一s”结尾，但它是单数。类似的还有politics，economics，news等。
PartⅣCloze
56．D by means of“通过…的方式／手段”，固定搭配。
57．A protect sb．against sth．“保护某人免受…的伤害”，固定搭配。从下文“protection against fire”也可以看出。
58．A a big／large／small sum of money“一大笔／小笔钱”。人们上保险的钱对于保险公司来说，是很小的数目，所以选A。
59．B pay money to sb．“向某人付钱”，固定搭配。
60．C四个选项都可修饰可数名词。few“几乎没有”，表示否定；quite a few“相当多”；
a few“少数几个”；many“许多”。因为文中出现了only，就说明“有”，但“不多”，所以选C。
61．A out of“从…当中，出于”，如six out of ten(十分之六)。该句意思是“保险公司从收到的保险金里拿出一部分支付给这些家庭。”
62．D form“形成，组建”；recognize“认识到，认出，识别出”；found“建立”，但可惜的是该词是原形，没有用过去分词，与原句中的“was”构成被动语态；而come into being “产生”没有被动语态。
63．C destroy表示“破坏，毁坏，消灭”，程度较深，一般无法挽救；injure通常指“人受伤”；hurt往往指“(人心理、感情)受到伤害”；harm“损害，伤害”，但此词比destroy 程度轻很多。1666年伦敦的那场大火在历史上都是罕见的，所以该用destroyed。
64．C further“进一步的，更深一层的”；longer“更长的，更久的”；farther“更远的”，指距离；deeper“更深的”。人们害怕再有进一步的损失，所以选c。
65．B soon“不久”，强调时间快；quickly“很快地”，强调动作迅速；immediately“立即，
马上”，强调立竿见影。
66．B suggest“建议，提出”；insist(on doing)／that…“坚持做认为…”；advise“劝告，忠告”；want“想要”。联系上下文，B符合题意。
67．C根据下文中出现的crops可知，应是farmers。
68．A by“通过，经过”。意即“经过暴风雨后造成的粮食损失”。
69．D another“又一，再一”，修饰名词单数。前面有了一项火灾保险，又制定了一项新的保险应用another来表示。0ther往往修饰复数名词，表示“其他的”；the other往往和one相搭配，表示“一个…，另一个…”；0thers则表示“其他人，其他物”，是复数，后不能再跟名词。
70．A Hfe insurance“人身保险”。
71．A regularly“定期地”，保险费是定期收取的。
72．A still“仍然，仍旧”；yet“然而”，表转折；already“已经”；often“经常”。73．C benefit from“从…中受益”；hear from“收到某人来信”；pay和offer都是及物动词，不与from连用。该句意思是“人们从许多种类的保险中受益。”
74．A such as“诸如，像”，固定搭配，表列举。
75．C some“某一个”，表不确指，后跟单数名词。也可说a certain。该句意思是几乎每个人都上了某种保险。

A Friend to Remember
Sophia was one of my best friends in college. She was a tall girl with big eyes and short hair.
Her family was poor because her father died when she was still a child. In spite of this, she was very optimistic and never lost heart. She struck people as a
strong-minded and self-confident girl.
And that was why I admired her a lot. One of her favorite quotations was "tomorrow is another day" and she always encouraged herself with Scarlett' s spirit when she was faced with difficulties.
We had a lot in common. We both liked singing, reading and shopping. Singing songs to-gether with her was a lot of fun. I enjoyed my college life very much with her company. Now she is working in another city, and we hardly have any chance to see each other. However, she will al-ways be my best friend.

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/5714979683.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/5714979683.html,urel said. “It would be too

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案 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 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don ' t think your fat cells won't notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat calls, reducing their ability to respond to insulin ( 胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term ，this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), f atty liver disease and weight gain . The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there 's“ an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good ，healthy body weight ” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem ，director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase ，Maryland. (76) But Americans don ' t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us ，according to a report form the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ，is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night ，on average. So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young ，thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “ For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night ，” says Brady. Then ，a month later ，they came back for four additional nights —but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit ，researchers got a sample of their fat.(77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “ I was very surprised to be honest ，” he says. Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “ Fat cells are actually your friend ，”he says. “They 're there to store lipids( 血脂).” When lipids stay inside the cells ，your body can utilize the fat when you ' re exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “ However ，when fat cells start to become insulin resistant ，the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream ，” Brady says. 1.According to the passage ，lack of the sleep for a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT ______ . 第一段最后一句 A.heart disease B. weight gain C. diabetes D. liver disease 2.The main idea of the third paragraph is . 第一句 A.how to write a medical research paper B. how to avoid sleep loss C. how the research was conducted D. how to conduct a medical experiment 3.What does the word “ leach ” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Leap B. Lead. C. Lead. D. Leak . 泄露

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: 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）. CIA (Central Intelligence Agency)中央情报局 IQ(intelligence quotient) n. 智力商数 EQ(Emotional Quotient)情商 “Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, "says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health. short-term memory短时记忆 Long-term memory长时记忆 The Lancet Global Health《柳叶刀》杂志 (76) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby’s heal th. 长久以来，医生们就已熟知母乳喂养对婴儿健康有益。This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed. 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. Horta says these previous studies didn’t follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects.

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/5714979683.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/5714979683.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.
