The social problems are too complex to figure out．B. The online media outlets will review the comments．C. The action does harm to society and individuals．D. The Internet users are easily attached to hot topics．17.What can we learn from the analysis by Markman？______A. People are cautious to make vitriolic remarks online．B. The targets online are more likely to be commented on．C. Understanding the literal meaning is easier than oral language．D. An argument with an angry tone can promote its power．18.What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage？______A. To show different ways of expressing opinions．B. To reveal the severe problems of the public media．C. To raise the awareness of proper communication．D. To urge people to carry out actual offline communications．【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】B 【小题3】C【解析】CBC1．C．推理判断题．根据第一段this addictive form of vitriolic （刻薄）back and forth should be avoided - or simply checked by online media outlets - because it actually damages society and mental health．可知，网上攻击对个人和社会都有伤害，故选C．2．B．推理判断题．根据第二段they are at a distance from the target of their anger - be it the article they're commenting on or another comment on that article - and people tend to go against distant abstractions more easily than living，breathing talkers．可知，在网上目标更可能被评论，因为在网上评论是匿名的．故选B．3．C．推理判断题．文章第一段提出这种现象及其危害，第二、三段列举网上攻击的种种坏处和对个人或社会的不良影响，最后两段呼吁停止这种行为，通过正常交流解决问题．所以作者的写作目的是提高人们正常交流的意识，故选C．本文是一篇说明文．网络上针对某一话题进行的愤怒评论是有害社会和心理健康的，文中呼吁要理智交流并尊重与自己意见不同的人．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．BWhen Peter Fortune was ten years old grown-up people sometimes used to tell him he was a "difficult" child．He never understood what they meant．He didn't feel difficult at all．He didn't throw milk bottles at the garden wall，or tip tomato ketchup over his head and pretend it was blood，or slash at his granny's ankle with his sword，though he occasionally thought of these things．Apart from all vegetables except potatoes，and fish，eggs and cheese，there was nothing he would not eat．He wasn't noisier or dirtier or more stupid than anyone he knew．His name was easy to say and spell．His face，which was pale and freckled，was easy enough to remember．He went to school every day like all other children and never made that much fuss about it．He was only as offensive to his sister as she was to him．Policemen never came knocking at the front door wanting to arrest him．Doctors in white coats never offered to take him away to the madhouse．As far as Peter was concerned，he was really quite easy．What was difficult about him？It was not until he had been a grown-up himself for many years that Peter finallyunderstood．They thought he was difficult because he was so silent．That seemed to bother people．The other problem was he liked being by himself．① Not all the time，of course．Not even every day．But most days he liked to go off somewhere for an hour to his bedroom，or the park．He liked to be alone and think his thoughts．Now，grown-ups like to think they know what's going on inside a ten-year-old's head．And it's impossible to know what someone is thinking if they keep quiet about it．People would see Peter lying on his back on a summer's afternoon，chewing a piece of grass and staring at the sky．"Peter，Peter! What are you thinking about？" they would call to him．And Peter would sit up with a start．"Oh，nothing．Nothing at all．" Grown-ups knew that something was going on inside that head，but they couldn't hear it or see it or feel it．They couldn't tell Peter to stop it，because they did not know what it was he was doing in there．② He could have been setting his school on fire or feeding his sister to an alligator and escaping in a hot air balloon，but all they saw was a boy staring at the blue sky without blinking，a boy who did not hear you when you called his name．As for being on his own，grown-ups didn't much like that either．They don't even like other grown-ups being on their own．When you join in，people can see what you're up to．You're up to what they're up to．③ Peter had different ideas．In fact，he thought，if people spent less time joining in and making others join in，and spent a little time each day alone remembering who they were or who they might be，then the world would be a happier place and wars might never happen…The trouble with being a daydreamer who doesn't say much is that the teachers at school，especially the ones who don't know you very well，are likely to think you are rather stupid．④Or，if not stupid，then dull．No one can see the amazing things that are going on in your head．A teacher who saw Peter staring out the window or at a blank sheet of paper on his desk might think that he was bored，or stuck for an answer．But the truth was quite different．19.It can be learned from the first paragraph that ______ ．A. Peter liked playing practical jokesB. Peter wasn't particular about food at allC. boys generally did some crazy thingsD. Peter knew why he was called "difficult"20.Which of the following would Peter be most likely to do？______A. To walk around a lake for quite a while．B. To break the neighbor's fence for fun．C. To tie a dirty dustbin to a dog's tail．D. To sleep in the tent with his friends．21.Where can the sentence "You have to join in，or you'll spoil it for everyone else．" mostprobably be put？______A. ①B. ②C. ③D. ④22.What is the main reason that Peter was considered "difficult" by grown-ups？______A. He was far from communicative．B. He turned a deaf ear to others．C. He did not do well in his studies．D. He preferred to live on his own．23.What might the author continue to write about in the following part？______A. Effective measures to help Peter out．B. How the unique ideas Peter had amazed others．C. Difficulties keeping Peter from learning well．D. Further prejudice against Peter among grown-ups．24.What can serve as the best title of this passage？______A. The DaydreamerB. The TroublemakerC. The Hard NutD. The Dark Horse【答案】【小题1】C 【小题2】A 【小题3】C 【小题4】A 【小题5】B 【小题6】A【解析】CACABA1．C．推理判断题．根据第一段的"He didn't throw milk bottles at the garden wall， or tip tomato ketchup over his head and pre tend it was blood， or slash at his granny's ankle with his sword， though he occasionally th ought of these things．"可知，Peter想到的一些可能会让大人们认为他"difficult"的事情，这些都是男孩们经常淘气捣蛋做的事情，结合生活常识可知男孩们经常喜欢做的一些疯狂的事．故选C．2．A．推理判断题．根据第二段的"The other problem was he liked being by himself．"可知，Peter是一个人独处的男孩，A项符合他的性格，故选A．3．C．推理判断题．根据三处的上句When you join in，people can see what you're up to．You're up to what they're up to．（指当你加入是，人们会看到你在做什么，你也会知道他们在做什么），与，"You have to join in， or you'll spoil it for everyone else．" 如果去做他们想要的事，你就必须加入到他们当中，否则你就会被别人欺负，上下文衔接．应该放在第三处．故选C．4．A．细节理解题．根据第二段的句子"It was not until he had been a grown-up himself for many years that Peter finally understood ． They thought he was difficult because he was so silent． That seemed to bother people．"可知，人们认为他difficult的原因是他太沉默．故选A．5．B．推理判断题．上文讲述的是Peter的日常所做及人们对他的不理解，下文应该接着写他的一些奇怪的想法给别人带来的惊奇．故选B．6．A．主旨大意题．文章主要介绍的是空想家Peter的不同的寻常之处及其日常活动，所以A项"空想家"适合作为标题．故选A．文章主要介绍了空想家Peter的不同寻常之处及其日常所做所想，及和人们之间相互的不解．考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．C25.According to the above information，we know ______ ．A. summer school programs are intended for the disabled studentsB. one student can participate in two summer school programsC. students can improve written language skills through programsD. students have classes each day from June 20 to July 2926.What is true of the two afternoon activities？______A.

Transportation service is arranged for the students．【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】D【解析】1．B．细节理解题．根据文章第一段的句子"Students can enroll in either or both programs．"可知，一个学生可以参与两个暑期学习课程．故选B．2．D．细节理解题．根据文章最后一段的句子"Summer Lab will provide shuttle service from HPDS to Lab at the conclusion of morning cl asses at Hyde Park Day School． "可知，为学生安排了交通服务．故选D．文章介绍暑期学习的课程的目的，时间安排和活动内容等信息．考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择．在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断．DScientists should be allowed to change a person's DNA in ways that will be passed on to future generations，but only to prevent serious and strongly heritable （遗传）diseases，according to a new report from the National Academy of Sciences and the National Academy of Medicine．However，making changes to these genes in order to improve or change traits such as strength，intelligence or beauty should remain off-limits，the report authors concluded．Changing the so-called germline （种系）is illegal in the United States．It has largely been considered ethically off-limits here as well，at least while bioethicists and scientists considered the unforeseen effects and unexamined moral dilemmas of using new gene-editing technologies．However，scientists have moved forward aggressively to explore the possibility of changing disease genes in other adult human cells with a revolutionary technique known as CRISPR-Cas 9．It is widely believed that gene editing of this sort could treat patients with metabolic （新陈代谢的）disorders，certain cancers，and a range of other diseases that arise from genetic mutations （突变）- without changing the germline．Last year，Chinese scientists launched a trial that uses CRISPR-Cas9in a treatment for lung cancer．While the trial's outcome is awaited with high anticipation，scientists outside China have expressed concern that ethical reservations in the United States and Europe will put them at a disadvantage．CRISPR-Cas9 makes gene editing more straightforward，more precise and far more widespread．As such，the National Academies' report acknowledges that changing heritable DNA in eggs，sperm and early embryos is fast becoming "a realistic possibility that deserves serious consideration．"The 22-member panel of scientists and bioethicists who produced the report completed a comprehensive review of the issues raised by that prospect．Clinical trials involving germline editing should only be pursued to treat diseases that cannot be improved with "reasonable alternatives，" the 22-member panel of scientists and bioethicists said．In addition，they added，scientists should convincingly demonstrate they are targeting a gene that either causes or strongly makes a carrier likely to suffer from a serious disease or condition，and that they have weighed the likely risks and benefits of changing that gene．Finally，scientists should conduct long-term follow-up studies to know how gene editing affects the next generations．Public debate and discussion about the technology should continue，the panel added．27.In what circumstances can scientists change a person's DNA？______A. Making a person look much younger．B. Protecting future generations from some heritable diseases．C. Using the most advanced gene-editing technologies．D. Changing the germline for a better function．28.What is the advantage of CRISPR-Cas9？______A. It can treat diseases more precisely without changing the germline．B. It can successfully cure people of most deadly diseases．C. It can change genes in adult human cells．D. It can stop genetic mutations．29.What possible conclusion can be drawn according to the passage？______A. Future generations will live longer and become more intelligent．B. Chinese scientists created CRISPR-Cas9 and put it into use．C. The gene editing is strictly forbidden for moral dilemmas．D. The gene editing research is still at the primary stage．30.What does this report mainly talk about？______A. A new gene-editing technology and concerns about it．B. A germline-editing technology and approval for it．C. Clinical trials of gene editing and social values of them．D. Some germline clinical trials and scientific effects of them．【答案】【小题1】B 【小题2】A 【小题3】D 【小题4】A【解析】1．B．细节理解题．根据第一段第一句中的"⋅⋅⋅only to prevent serious and strongly heritable（遗传）diseases"可知，在将防止把严重的、遗传性较强的疾病传给下一代作为出发点的前提下，科学家可以改变一个人的DNA．2．A．细节理解题．根据第三段的内容，尤其是最后一句中的"without changing the germline"可知，CRISPRCas9这种基因编辑技术可以在不改变种系的情况下用于治疗疾病；再根据第五段的第一句"CRISPRCas9 makes gene editing more straightforward，more precise and far more widespread"可知，CRISPRCas9这种基因编辑技术可以更为准确地治疗疾病．综上可知，A项正确．3．D．推理判断题．根据第二段及第五段的内容可知，基因编辑的技术（发展）在很大程度上受到了限制，且改变可遗传的DNA目前只是"一种值得认真考虑的现实可能性"；再结合第六段中的"prospect"、第七段中的"the likely risks and benefits of changing that gene"及最后一段的内容提示可推知，基因编辑的研究仍处于初级阶段．4．A．主旨大意题．通读全文可知，本文主要介绍了一项名为CRISPRCas9的基因编辑新技术及人们对基因编辑技术的担忧，所以A项最能概括本文大意．本文是一篇说明文．本文主要介绍了基因编辑技术新的发展概况以及人们对此的一些担忧．做这类题材阅读理解时要求考生对文章通读一遍，做题时结合原文和题目有针对性的找出相关语句进行仔细分析，结合选项选出正确答案．推理判断题也是要在抓住关键句子的基础上合理的分析才能得出正确答案，切忌胡乱猜测，一定要做到有理有据．三、完形填空（本大题共20小题，共20.0分）When one hitchhikes - travelling by getting lifts from passing vehicles without paying，one(31) long hours either waiting at a likely intersection （岔路口）or(32) heavily down the road，and when I was so engaged，I found(33) in singing songs or in reciting the many poems I had memorized，or(34)the latest postcards I had added to my art collection．I was in many ways the(35) boy on the road，in other ways the richest，and I was always happy to be on the road meeting new people，hearing new stories and seeing new(36)．I have(37) been clever enough to analyze the motivation or drive for my hitchhiking，but I doubt that it was related to any(38) weakness．I have never been out of mind．Home was not exciting enough to keep me (39)to it．I had no material(40)of any kind to hold my interest for long periods of time staying home．(41) I was not unhappy with my family，my school and my friends．When I was(42)，hiking with very little money and a thousand miles from home，I was convinced that I would(43)my journey safely，for I was quite optimistic as a boy thenwith(44)life before me．So it was with me when I was at sixty - I was still optimistic with so many(45)behind me．It seems that I was born to(46) at the world，and such men do not write tragedies．The simple fact seems that whenever I saw that(47) road outside my house，I was(48) toexplore what it was like．What Walt Whitman once said would always push me to go on ："Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open(49)，healthy，free，the world before me，the long brown path before me leading wherever I (50)．" That makes a difference to my life．31.

I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the door-bell, but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bedroom window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said, “I don’t think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.” I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted acting in the way I did, but I sai d, “I enjoy cleaning windows at night.”“So do I,” answered the policeman in the same tone. “Excuse my interrupting you. I hate to interrupt a man when he’s busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station?”“Well, I’d prefer to stay here,”I said. “You see, I’ve forgotten my key.”“Your what?” he called.“My key,” I shouted.Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me.41.

He was the only boy among great many girl cousins. That was enough to make him important, but his father loved him especially, because he knew his son was going to be an artist. Pablo knew the word for pencil even before he could say Mamma and Papa. When he was small he spent hours by himself making delightful little drawings of animals and people. If his mother sent him out to play in the square, he went on drawing in the dust under the trees. One of his favorite models was his younger sister, Lola.Don Jose Ruiz, Pablo’s father, was director of the museum at Malaga in southern Spain. He earned only a small salary, but there was not much work to do and he was able to practice his hobby, which was painting pigeons. Don Jose loved pigeons very much. He painted them dead or alive in ones and twos and in dozens. Sometimes he painted them on paper, cut them out and stuck them on to canvas; sometimes he stuck real feathers on to his pictures. He knew a great deal about the technique of painting and he taught it all to Pablo.46. Picasso’s father loved him particularly, because ______.A he was their only childB he was a boyC he was going to be importantD he was going to be a painter47.

Drawing pigeons was Don Jose’s ______.A workB leisure-time activityC regular businessD way to earn a livingPassage ThreeYou have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion. However, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own, the transfusion could kill you.There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB, and O. A simple test can show a person’s blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited from parents.Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefully. Basically, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can be given to any other group, and, hence, it is often called the universal giver. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called the universal receiver. However, because so many reactions can happen in transfusions, patients usually receive salt or plasma until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among Europeans and people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.51. A good title for this selection is ______.A Getting Blood and PlasmaB Special Blood ColorsC Universal Giver and ReceiverD Human Blood Types52. The author suggests that the rarest blood type be _____ among Europeans.A AB BC ABD O53. People with type A blood can receive _______.A ABB BC OD all the above54. If you need a transfusion, the best and safest blood for you is _____.A type AB type ABC exactly the same type as yoursD a mixture of salt, plasma, and type O55. According to the passage, a person’s blood type is decided by _______.A his parentsB his nationalityC his hair colorD his heightPassage FourWomen’s fashions tend to change more rapidly than men’s. In the early 1900s all women wore their skirts down to the ankle. Today, skirt length varies from floor-length to ten inches above the knee. Women’s shores have also gone through all sorts of changes in the last seventy years. For example, boots for women were very common at the beginning of this century. Then, several years later, they were not considered fashionable. Today they are back in style again in all colors, lengths and materials. In fact, today’s women can wear all types of clothes—even T-shirts and shorts on almost any occasion. While there are some rapid changes in women’s clothing which remained pretty much the same until a couple of years ago, most men still wear the traditional suit, jacket, shirt and tie although there have been more changes about their clothing in color, pattern and variety than in the past.56. Nowadays women wear ______.A longer skirts than those women used to wear at the beginning of the this centuryB both longer skirts and short skirtsC shorter skirtsD the same as in the early 1900s57. Today, women think that long boots are ______.A fashionableB unfashionableC more fit than short onesD acceptable58. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A Great changes have taken place in men’s clothing recently.B Men’s clothing has not changed much.C Men’s fashion changed as rapidly as women’s.D Men never wear jackets and ties at all.59. Men’s clothes are more colorful than _____.A women’sB they used to beC traditional shirtsD ties60. What does the author imply by “today’s women can wear all types of clothes”?A Women were not allowed to wear clothes in the old days.B Women were not allowed to wear T-shirts and shorts in the old days.C Women have a wider choice of clothes now.D Women can wear men’s clothes now.IV. Translation61.Finally, aw method was discovered of producing artificial rubber which is inmany ways superior and in some ways inferior （劣的）to natural rubber.Artificial rubber is produced in factories by a complicated chemical process. It isusually cheaper than natural rubber.62．Because noise is unavoidable in a complex, industrial society, we areconstantly responding in the same ways that we would respond to danger.63．This meant that the value of currencies（货币）would now be determinedby the markets instead of individual governments.64．…if enough warning is given, steps can be taken to limit the destruction andsuffering that following a bad EL Nino.V. WritingDirections: For this part, you are supposed to write a letter in about 100-120 words based on the following situation. Remember to write it clearly.Outline:1．1．小汽车正在进入中国家庭2．2．家用汽车的利和弊。

2017专转本英语全真模拟卷（二）第I卷（共100分）Part I Reading Comprehension（共20小题，每小题2分．共40分）Directions：In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions．Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet．Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine. He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill. He lay on his bunk（铺）and groaned as if he were very sick. The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work. Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest. Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told the “sick” man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do. The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking. At last the mate（船长副手） decided to cure the “sick” men. He mixed up some soap, soot（烟灰）, glue（胶水） and other unpleasant things. Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick” men. When they tasted the medicine, they really did feel ill. It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of his bunk, ran up on deck and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour, night and day. This soon cured them. They both said they felt better and wanted to start work again. The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1. The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to ______.A. test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB. be free from workC. have the best food on the shipD. play a joke on his friends2. When the captain knew a sailor was ill, he ______.A. didn’t care muchB. sent for a doctorC. looked after him and told him to have a restD. gave him some medicine3. The patients felt better quickly because ______.A. they had been given proper treatmentB. they learned that the captain had found out the truthC. they were laughed at by their friendsD. the medicine the mate gave them was horrible4. When the captain knew he had been deceived, he ______.A. told them not to do so againB. lost his temperC. made them work harderD. fired them5. Which of the following best summarizes the passage?A. A Sudden Cure.B. Two Patients.C. Captain and Sailors.D. A Difficult Voyage.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was so difficult to separate from the ores (矿石) in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refining the metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum became practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By mixing it with other metals, scientist have been able to produce a variety of alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engines of automobiles, in the hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge “airbus”planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them. Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite (铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refiningprocess with the aid of ______.A. wind powerB. solar energyC. hydraulic powerD. electricity7. Aluminum is ______.A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB. heavyweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC. lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD. lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to becomerusty8. Which of the following is not true?A. Aluminum is widely used in transportation.B. Aluminum is also used in many parts of airplanes.C. Aluminum is being used extensively in the building industry.D. Aluminum is not used in its pure form.9. Aluminum is found on earth mostly in the form of ______.A. pure metalB. bauxiteC. goldD. liquid10. What is the passage talking about?A. The features of aluminum and its functions.B. The process of aluminum.C. The discovery of aluminum.D. The promising future of aluminum.Passage ThreeQuestions 11 to l5 are based on the following passage:One of the most authoritative voices speaking to us today is, of course, the voice of the advertisers. It shouts at us from the television screen and the radio loudspeakers; waves to us from every page of the newspaper; signals to us from the roadside bill-boards all day and flashes messages to us in colored lights all night.Advertising has been among England’s biggest growth industries since the war. Perhaps the reason is that advertising saves the manufacturers from having to think about the customer. At the stage of designing and developing a product, there is quite enough to think about without worrying over whether anybody will want to buy it. The designer is busy enough without adding customer-appeal to all his other problems of man-hours and machine tolerances and stress factors. So they just go ahead and make the thing and leave it to the advertiser to find clever ways of making it appeal to purchasers after they have finished it, by pretending that if confers(赋予) status, or attracts love, or signifies manliness.Other manufacturers find advertising saves them from changing their product. And manufacturers hate change. The ideal product is one that goes on unchanged forever. If, therefore, for one reason or another, some alteration seems called for – how much better to change the image, the packet or the pitch made by the product, rather than go to all the inconvenience of changing the product itself.11. Which of the following can best describe the author’s attitude toward modernadvertising?A. Indifferent.B. Shocked.C. Disapproving.D. Approving.12. According to the author, which is NOT the designer’s chief concern when he designsa product?A. Stress factors.B. Man-hours.C. Machine tolerances.D. Customer-appeal13. It is stated in the passage that those responsible for giving a productcustomer-appeal are ______.A. customersB. designersC. advertisersD. manufacturers14. According to the author, when some change in a product is necessary, amanufacturer will choose to ______.A. lower the production costB. hire a better designerC. improve its qualityD. alter its image15. The best title for the passage might be ______.A. Advertising Since the WarB. Advertising and ManufacturersC. Advertising – England’s Biggest IndustryD. Advertising and PurchasersPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:All that we really need to plot out the future of our universe are a few good measurements. This does not mean that we can sit down today and outline the future course of the universe with anything like certainty. There are still too many things we do not know about the way the universe is put together. But we do know exactly what information we need to fill in our knowledge, and we have a pretty good idea of how to go about getting it. Perhaps the best way to think of our present situation is to imagine a train coming into a switchyard (调车场). All of the switches (转辙器) are set before the train arrives, so that its path is completely determined. Some switches we can see, others we cannot. There is no ambiguity if we can see thesetting of a switch; we can say with confidence that some possible futures will not materialize and others will. At the unseen switches, however, there is no such certainty. We know the train will take one of the tracks leading out, but we have no idea which one. The unseen switches are the true decision points in the future, and what happens when we arrive at them determines the entire subsequent course of events.When we think about the future of the universe, we can see our “track” many billions of years into the future, but after that there are decision points to be dealt with and possible fates to consider. The goal of science is to reduce the ambiguity at the decision points and find the true road that will be followed.16. According to the passage, it is difficult to be certain about the distant futureof the universe because we ______.A. have too many conflicting theoriesB. do not have enough funding to continue our researchC. are not sure how the universe is put togetherD. have focused our investigations on the moon and planets17. What does the author see as the function of the universe’s unseen “switches”?A. They tell us which one of the tracks the universe will use.B. They enable us to alter the course of the universe.C. They give us information about the lunar surface.D. They determine which course the universe will take in the future.18. In the second paragraph, the word “track” could best be replaced by which ofthe following?A. BandB. RailsC. PathD. Sequence19. For whom is the author probably writing this passage?A. Train engineers.B. General audiences.C. Professors of statistics.D. Young children.20. Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the passage?A. A statement illustrated by an analogy(类比).B. A hypothesis supported by documentation (引用文献).C. A comparison of two contrasting theories.D. A critical analysis of a common assumption.Part II Vocabulary and Structure （共40小题，每小题1分，共40分）Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences. Each sentence is fallowed by four choices.

People wonder why he isn't doing better.Then there was Tom who was always regarded as"average. " However, he set hisgoals high, and then found a way to achieve his goal. Today he owns a million-dollarcompany.Researchers have found that school performance is little related to job like "steady and dependable"and "practical and organized"are more important."You don't need talent to succeed," insist some experts. "All you need is a big pot of glue(胶水). You put some on your chair, you sit down, and you stick to every project until you've done the best you can do. "Average achievers stay glued to their chairs and postpone pleasure so they can receive future benefits. Many fast-trackers, on the other hand, expect too much too soon.

How Average Achievers Do Better than OthersPassage ThreeQuestions 11～15 are based on the following passage.From good reading we can derive pleasure, companionship, experience, and instruction. A good book may absorb our attention so completely that for the time being we forget our surroundings and even our identity. Reading good books is one of the greatest pleasures in life. It increases our contentment when we are cheerful, and lessens our troubles when we are sad. Whatever may be our main purpose in reading,our contact with good books should never fail to give us enjoyment and satisfaction.With a good book in hand we could never be lonely. Whether the characters portrayed are taken from real life or are purely imaginary, they may become our companions and friends. In the pages of books we can walk with the wise and the good of all lands and all times. The people we meet in books may delight us either because they resemble human friends whom we hold dear or because they represent unfamiliar types whom we are glad to welcome as new acquaintances. Our human friends sometimes may bore us, but friends we make in books could never weary us with their company. By turning the pages we can dismiss them without any fear of hurting their feelings. Whenhuman friends desert us, good books are always ready to give us friendship, sympathy and encouragement.：One of the most valuable gifts bestowed by books is experience. Few of us can travel far from home or have a wide range of experiences, but all of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books. Whether we wish to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life or whether we long to visit some far-off place, a book will help us when nothing else can. To travel by book we need no bank account to pay for our way, no airship or ocean liner or streamlined train to transport us, no passport to enter the land of our heart's desire. Through books we may get the thrill of hazardous adventure without danger. We can climb lofty mountains or cross the scorching sands of the desert, all without hardship. Indeed, through books the whole world is ours for the asking. The possibilities of our literary experiences are almost unlimited. The beauties of nature, the enjoyment of music, the treasures of art, the triumphs of architecture,the marvels of engineering, are all open to the wonder and enjoyment of those who read.11. The main idea of the first paragraph is .A. pleasure can only be derived from reading good booksB. a good book may distract our attentionC. people can read good books in different waysD. enjoyment and satisfaction can be derived from reading good books12. The main reason that people like their acquaintances in books is .A. they are like human friends exactly>B. they never bore us in comparisonC. they never hurt our feelingsD. they give human beings friendship, sympathy and encouragement13. We forget our surroundings and even our identity because .A. the reading environment is very goodB. the book is and attractiveC. we are alone and no one interrupts usD. we are asked to return the book the second day{14. Which of the following is NOT trueA. All of us can lead varied lives through the pages of books.B. We can travel by book free of charge to our heart's content.C. We should rely on reading to escape from the seemingly dull realities of everyday life.D. Valuable experiences can be obtained from reading good books.15. "The whole world is ours for the asking" implies that .world is more accessible in books than in realityworld is easy to travel around as long as we walk】world belongs to us whenever we asktrips can be made by everyonePassage FourQuestions 16～20 are based on the following passage.Increasingly over the past 10 years, People especially young people have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food the they eat,particularly p'rocessed foods, is not good for health. Consequently, there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.Natural foods, for example, include vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter. In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a naturalprocess compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount-but not the quality-of foods grown in commercial farming areas.Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass production of poultry: There are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; they also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.?It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example, the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables,certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed on the eating of whole meal bread and more comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis placed of the eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on "healthy eating".16. People have become more interested in natural foods because .A. they like changing their diet from time to timeB. they want to eat food that is more deliciousC. much of the food they eat is no longer considered to be healthyD. they want to be fashionable17. Soil that is rich in organic matter .A. has nothing nutritious added to it;B. is essential for producing fruit and vegetablesC. contains unused vegetable matterD. has had chemicals and fertilizers added to it18. According to the author, the use of chemicals and fertilizers .A. will not necessarily increase the production of foodsB. is a good way to improve the quality of foodsC. promotes the foods both in quality and in quantityD. is no good for health^19. Chickens can be called "natural foods" only when .A. they are deliciousB. they are fed on food little better than rubbishC. they lay eggs rich in vitamins every dayD. they are allowed to move about and eat freely20. Which of the following is considered good for healthy eatingA. Unrefined flour and vegetables.B. White bread and honey.C. Canned beans and fruits.D. Mass-produced chickens and eggs.·PartⅡVocabulary and Structure(共40小题，每题1分，共40分)Directions:ln this part there are 40 incomplete sentences. Each sentertce is followed by four choices.

专转本英语测试题（二）及答案江苏省普通高校专转本选拔考试英语测试题(二)Part I Reading Comprehension（共 20 小题，每小题 2 分，共40 分）Passage OneA student is learning to speak British English. He wants to know: Can I speak with American Can they understand me Learners of English often ask: What are the differences between British English and American English How important are these differences？Certainly, there are some differences between British and American English. There are a fewdifferences in grammar. For example, speakers of British English say "in hospital" and "Have you a pen" Americans say "in the hospital" and "Do you have a pen" Pronunciation is sometimes different.Americans usually sound the 'r's in words like "bird" and "hurt". Speakers of British English do not sound the 'r's in these words. There are differences between British and American English in spelling and vocabulary. For example,"colour" and "honour" are British English. “Color” and "honor" are American English. These differences in grammar, pronunciation, spelling and vocabulary are not important, however, for the most part, British and American English are the same language.1. According to this passage, a student who is learning to speak American English might be afraidthat _____.A. British people can't understand himB. American people can't understand himC. the grammar is too hard for himD. the spelling is too hard for him2.

Whether there are differences between British English and American English.B. Whether British and American English are one language or twoC. How the differences between British English and American English came aboutD. How important the differences are4. Most _____ say “Do you have a watch”.A. British peopleB.Americans C. childrenD. teachers5. According to the passage, British people and Americans have _____ difficulty in understandingeach other.A. littleB.much C.some D. greatPassage TwoHappiness is contagious, researchers reported on Thursday.People with the most social connections —spouses, friends, neighbors and relatives —were also the happiest, the data showed. “Each additional happy person makes you happier，” Christakis said.“Imagine that I am connected to you and you are connected to others and others are connected to still others. It is this fabric of humanity, like an American p atch quilt.”Each person sits on a different colored patch. “Imagine that these patches are happy and unhappy patches. Your happiness depends on what is going on in the patch around you，” Christakis said.“It is not just happy people connecting with happy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.”And happiness is more contagious than unhappiness, they discovered.“If a social contact is happy, it incre ases the likelihood that you are happy by 15 percent，” Fowler said. “A friend of a friend, or the friend of a spouse or a sibling (兄弟姐妹), if they are happy, increases your chances by 10 percent，” he added.A happy third degree friend —the friend of a friend of a friend —increases a person’s chances of being happy by 6 percent.“But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you’ll be unhappy by 7 percent” Fowler said.The finding is interesting and it is useful, too, Fowler said.“Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality (死亡率), pain reduction, and improved cardiac (心脏的) function. So better understandingof how happiness spreads can help us learn how to promote a healthier society，” he sai d.The study also fits in with other data suggested in 1984 that having $ 5,000 extra increased a person’s chances of becoming happier by about 2 percent.“A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000,” Christakis said.6. According to the research, your happiness ________.A. has nothing to do with your workmates or schoolmatesB. has something to do with anyone who has a close relationship with youC. depends on those who are in favour of you or are against youD. has little to do with what social connections you have7.

It can be inferred that________.A. happiness spreads as fast and widely as unhappinessB. unhappiness spreads faster and more widely than happinessC. happiness spreads faster and more widely than unhappinessD. the spread of unhappiness has not been studied by researchers9. Which of the following will increase your chances of becoming happier mostA. Being in a party with a happy atmosphere.B. A happy experience of your brother or your parents.C. A happy trip to a foreign country of your friends.D. Happiness of your friend’s friend.10. What does Christakis mean by saying “A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000”A. A happy friend can help you bring in a wealth of $20,000.B. A happy friend is a wealth which is worth about $20,000.C. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 2%.D. A happy friend increases your chances of being happy by 8%.Passage ThreeMost people want to be happy, but few know how to find happiness. Money and success alone do not bring lasting happiness. Aristotle, a Greek thinker, said, "Happiness depends upon ourselves." In other words, we make our own happiness. Here are a few suggestions to help you be happier.The first secret of happiness is to enjoy the simple things in life. Too often, we spend too much time thinking about the future-for example, getting into college or getting a good job-that we fail to enjoy the present. You should enjoy life's simple pleasures, such as reading a good book, listening to your favorite music, or spending time with close friends. People who have several close friends often live happier and healthier lives.Another secret to living a happy life is to be active. Many people go dancing or play sports. People can forget about their problems and only think about the activities.Finally, many people find happiness in helping others. Studies show that people feel good when they spend their time helping others. If you want to feel happier, dogood things for someone. You can help a friend with his or her studies, go shopping to buy food for an elderly person, or simply help out around the house by washing the dishes.11. The best title of this passage is ________.A. The Secrets of HappinessB. Money Makes You HappyC. Ideas for Helping Other People to Be HappyD. Good Friends Make You Happy12. The second paragraph tells us that ________.A. the more friends you have, the happier you'll beB. we shouldn't think about our futureC. happiness is to enjoy the simple things in lifeD. some people fail to live a happy life13. The passage gives us ________ pieces of advice on happiness.A. oneB. twoC. threeD. four14. The writer thinks that ________.A. everyone knows how to live a happier lifeB. it's wrong to spend time on workC. hobbies take up too much timeD. doing good things for someone can make you happier15. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passageA. Reading a good book.B. Traveling to a foreign country.C. Playing a sport.D. Spending time with close friends.Passage FourSo long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning, they will continue toundertake to do for children that which only children can do for themselves. Teaching childrento read is not passing reading on to them. It is certainlynot endless hours spent in activitiesabout reading. Douglas insists that "reading cannot be taught directly and schools should stoptrying to do the impossible."Teaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function.The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible forchildren to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also apublic activity: It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private, for learning is an occupation of the mind, and that processis not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable, what then can be done through teachingthat will aid the child in the quest (探索) for knowledge Smith has one principal rule for allteaching instructions. "Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful,enjoyable and frequent experience for children."When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher andlearner fulfill them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both iseliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where childrenare given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.16. The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that _______.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading17.

This is probably because they are born with those behaviorpatternsFear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and Englishliterature, a phrase like “ he wentpale and begin to tremble”suggests that the man is either very afraid or deepshocked, However, he”opened his eyes wide ”is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in English it meanssurprise In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase li ke “ they stretched out their tongues” Sticking out you tongue in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislikeEven in the same culture, people differ in ability to understand and express feelings,Experiments in Americahave shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear,anger,love and happiness on people ’ sfaces,Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language thanyounger people do.1.According to the passage，—— BA.We can hardly understand what people ’s gestures meanB.words and gestures may have different meaning in different culturesC.words can be better understood by older peopleD.gestures can be understood by most of the people while words cannot 2.People’s facial expressions may be misunderstood because——B A people of different ages may have different understandingB people have different culturesC people of different sexes may understand a gesture differentlyD people of different countries speak different languages3 .Even in the same culture. people —— AA. have different abilities to understand and express feelingsB.have exactly the same understanding of somethingC.never fail to understand each otherD.are equally intelligent4.From this passage, we can conclude —— CA words are used as frequently as gesturesB words are often difficult to understandC words and gestures are both used in expressing feelingsD gestures are more efficiently used than words5.The best title for this passage may be —— BA.

(which is also slang).meaning to take or to capture". and the second comesfrom the first name of Sir Robert Peel, the nineteenth-century politician, who was the of the police force as we know it today. An early nickname for the policeman was "peeler" but this one has died out.Whatever we may call them,the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one, except, of course, among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated in America, such as "fuzz" or "pig". Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police. It has. Infact, become a standing joke that the Visitor to Britain, when asked tar his views of the country. will always say, at some point or other, "I think your policemen are wonderful."Well,the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character. A music-hall song of some years ago was called "If You Want To Know The Time, Ask A Policeman". Nowadays. most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen.In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else.Two things are Immediately noticeable to the stranger, when he sees an English policeman for the first time.The first is that he does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very distinctive of headgear. the policeman's helmet ,His helmet, together which his height,enables an English policeman to he seen from a considerable distance, a fact that is not without its usefulness.

The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions the bases for the decisions we make, and the roots of our habits and skills are to he found in our pastexperiences,which are brought into the present by memory.Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for later use. It not only includes "remembering" things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves. Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile. Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat.Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines. Computers.for example, contain devices from storing data for later use. It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being. The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000"words" -ready for instant use. An average American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English. However, this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored. Consider. tar example- the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight.The use of words is the bass of the advanced problem-solving intelligence of human beings. A large part of a person's memory is in terms of words and combinations of words.11.According to the passage, memory is considered to be —— BA.the basis for decision making and problem solvingB.the ability to store information for future useC.an intelligence typically possessed by human beingsD.the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words12.The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that——Cputer's memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager'sputer's memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being'sputer's memory's capacity is much smaller even than a teenager'sputer's memory's capacity is the same as a teenager's13.1t is implied in the passage that —— C14.The phrase “in terms of ”in the last sentence can be best replaced by—— BA.in connection withB. expressed byC.consistingD.by means of15.The main idea of the passage is—— BA.What life would be like without memoryB.Memory is of vital importance to lifeC.How a person ’s memory different from an animal ’s or a computer’sD.What memory carriesPassage fourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passageClearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live, we must communicate with other people. Agreat deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travelin buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give informationor opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely to have our views challenged by other members of society.Face to face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advanced imprinting, telecommunications photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed( 相形见拙 ) by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to( 只限于 ) a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. For years ago peopleused to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that isbeing channeled into millions of homes.Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modem communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing accessto information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing, educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual andto the society of which he is part, the vast modem network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse, and there is no turning back.16.The first paragraph the writer emphasizes the—— of face-to-face contact in social setting.DA ． natureB ．limitation C． creativity D ．Usefulness17.The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results from—— BA.the advances and revolutionsB.the inventiveness and speedC.the art of mass communicationD.the advances and speed18.It is implied in the passage that—— C.A ． local news used to be the only source of informationB． local news still takes a significant placeC． national news is becoming more popularD． international news is the fastest transmitted news19.Which of the following statements is NOT true?AA ． Public libraries have replaced the private libraries.B． To possess information used to be a privilegeC． Communication means more than transmission.D． Communication influences ways of life and thinking.20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is ___A___.A. concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaB.Happy about the flexible change in the mass mediaC.Pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD.Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass medPart II Vocabulary and Structure (共 40 小题，每题 1 分，共 40 分)Directions : there are 40 incomplete sentences in this part For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B,C and D.
