Which of the following is prohibited in Milan?A) Selling wine and spirits to Italian people. B) Drinking wine or spirits.C) Drinking of alcohol by young teenagers. D) Binge-drinking in Milan34. Who will be liable to heavy fines of up to 500 Euros?A) Parents of young teenagers caught drinking wine or spirits.B) Children under the age of 16 drinking wine or spirits.C) 11-year olds who have alcohol related problemsD) Parents of 11-year-olds having alcohol related problems.35. The word “authorities” in paragraph 5 most probably means ______.A) the government B) alcohol police C) local reporter D) alcohol experts36. According to the passage, Milan______.A) is the only city trying to curb binge-drinking.B) is the country’s industrial and financial capital.C) prohibits the sale of alcohol in bars or restaurants.D) prohibits the sale of alcohol, either wine or spirits.37. The difficulty in enforcing a national law to prohibit the sale of alcohol to young teenagers mainly comes from ______.A) young teenagers B) Italian traditionC) protests of bar owners D) parents of teenagersPassage TwoAlthough you may think that bottled water is a safer option than tap, two new reports show that the store-bought stuff is actually less regulated(监管) than the water you getout of your tap almost for free.The food and Drug Administration(FDA) has little authority to regulate bottled brands, according to a U.S. Congressional report released recently.While municipal water utilities are required to provide public reports of test results, bottled-water makers are not. So although you may pay a pretty penny for bottled water, that doen’t mean it’s any better than come out of your tap. In fact, it could be worse and you’d never know it.The new research is backed by a report from the Environmental Working Group. The nonprofit organization surveyed the labels and Web sites of nearly 200 popular bottled-water brands and found that less than 2 percent disclosed thee important facts that can affect safety: the water’s source, purification methods, and chemical pullutants in each bottle.Reaching for the most popular bottled brands isn’t necessarily a solution. In fact, the EWG report says that some of the best-known brand are the least likely to report where the water comes from and what it contains.38. Compared with bottled water, tap water ______.A) contains more pollutants B) has safer water sourceC) is more strictly regulated D) is actually less regulated39. Which of the following is true about bottled water?A) Bottled brands provide test results publicly.B) Most brands of bottled water are regularly tested.C) Purification methods are reliable and adequate.D) Bottled water might contain more pollutants.40. The focus of the survey by the EWG is on ______.A) The labels and Web sites of bottled-water brandsB) the environment of the source of bottled waterC) the important facts related to the safety of waterD) the purification methods to process water41. It may be concluded from this passage that ______.A) the FDA has no right to regulate bottled waterB) people spend much money on bottled water only for safer waterC) most popular bottled brands are found better than less-known ones.D) Bottled water from stores is not necessarily cleaner than tap water42. The author’s attitude towards bottled water tends to be ______.A) positive B) negative C) unclear D) particularPassage ThreeChina will pay dearly if it does not act now to build up an old-age social security system(社保体系),as its population aged 80 or above will hit 83 million by 2050, a population expert, Ma Li, has warned.China formally became an aged society in 2000, when the population aged 60 or above accounted for 10 percent of its 1.3 billion people.With an annual growth rate of 3.7 percent, china’s population aged 80 or above will reach 22 million by 2020, and 83 million by 2050, according to Ma, a deputy(代表) to the 11th NationalPeople’s Congress(NPC).In contrast to developed countries, China entered the aged society while it is still a developing country.“China is not yet ready for the aged society. It does not havea complete old-age social security system. There are not enough resources. Fiscal support is scarce. And the risk is ever rising,” said Ma.The lawmaker said China must act now to set up an old-age social security system that covers both rural and urban population.Such a system should be based on the care of the old people by their families, backed-up by community-level services networks and with old folks homes as a supplement, he said.Ma also stressed that China has the capacity to do that, as its economic structures and level of urbanization are well beyond the stage at which developed countries began to establish old-age social security systems for their rural populations.43. According to the population expert, it is the time for China to ______.A) pay the price for its 83 million aged peopleB) keep its aged population from growing too fastC) look at its own problems as an aged societyD) begin building an old-age social security system44. The phrase “accounted for” in paragraph 2 can be replaced by ______.A) constituted B) explainedC) caused D) produced45. According to Ma, China has entered the aged society but has not ______.A) investigated the situation of the ageing populationB) built a complete old-age social security systemC) noticed the risk of its growing populationD) set up any social organization for the issue46. In Paragraph 6 Ma is mentioned as a “lawmaker” because he ______.A) is a member of NPC B) is a population expertC) works for a law office D) cares about social security47. Which of the following should play the main role in the old-age social security system?A) The community-level services networks. B) The rural and urban old folks homes.C) The family members of the aged people. D) The rural and urban communities. Passage FourPaul Newman was not only a movie star. He was also politically active, and fought for liberal causes. In 1968, he helped the Democratic Party presidential candidate in election. Newman protested the Vietnam War in front of the American Embassy in London. He expressed great pride that he was named on President Ricard Nixon’s list of enemies.Paul Newman also worked on social issues important to him. In 1978, his twenty-eight year old son Scott died after taking too much drugs and alcohol. In response, Newman created the Scott Newman Center to help educate children and families on preventing drug abuse(吸毒).In the 1980s, Newman decided to start selling a salad dressing(沙拉酱) he had created and given to many friends as gifts. The “Newman’s Own” company he started with his friends A.E. Hotchner became a huge success selling different food products. Over the years, more than two hundred fifty million dollars in company profits have been donated to social causes andorganizations.One of these is the Wall Gang Camp, started by Paul Newman in 1988. Its aim is to provide a free summer camp experience to children with cancer and other serious diseases. There are now camps in the United States and several other countries. Newman said that he started the organization as a way to honor the role that luck has played in his life.

2012年6月浙江省大学英语三级考试真题Part I Listening Comprehension (30 marks, 30 minutes)Part II Reading Comprehension (40 marks, 40 minutes)Section ADirections: There are 3 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 31-35 are based on the following passage;An American researcher has developed a simple device to help stop snoring.(打鼾). The device restricts the movements of the tissue(器官组织)that causes the bad sound. Snoring is a common problem. It may prevent a person from getting enough sleep. It may also prevent enough oxygen from reaching heart and lungs during sleep. But for most people, snoring affects relations with another person who must sleep in the same room.Snoring happens when the sleeping person breathes with the mouth open. In the back of the mouth the tissues surrounding the entrance of the throat are soft. As the person breathes, the movement of the air around the soft tissues causes them to move or vibrate. This tissue movement causes the sound we call snoring. A number of possible solutions have been proposed. Some devices keep the mouth shut. They force the patient to breathe only through the nose. A medical operation is also possible. Other devices catch the sound of snoring and then wake the patient. The new anti-snoring device was developed by a dentist(牙医), George Wagner of the Indian University School of Dentistry. He developed a piece of plastic that fits up against the inside of the mouth. The device keeps the soft tissues from vibrating and making the snoring noise. It is worn only at night. Doctor Wagner said several patients report that the simple device has ended their snoring problem.31. The passage mentions all the bad effects on the snorer EXCEPT__________.A) disturbing his roommate B) his lack of enough sleepC) harming his friendship D) his lack of enough oxygen32. People snore when______.A) they keep their mouths shut B) part of their throat becomes softC) part of their throat moves D) they breathe through mouth and nose33. How many solutions to the problem have been proposed so far?A) Three B) Four C) Five D) Six34. Which of the following statements about the new device is FALSE?A) It is worn at night B) It has not been used by many peopleC) It is made of plastic D) It was developed by a businessman35. What is the most likely place where one can find the passage?A) A novel B) A newspaperC) A textbook D) A scientific journalPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. Slight problems may begin for a man when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman always tries to sell the customer something else---he offers the nearest he can to the article required.Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tellsher, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on.

You may know that last term about fifty percent of the students who selected my course failed it. Let me explain how this came about before you jump to any conclusions. In the first place, since this is a composition class, I expect my students to follow certain rules of formality(形式).Unfortunately, students today dislike having to follow rules of any kind, especially those which they may feel to be unnecessary. For example, I ask that each of your papers be typed. I count off points for various kinds of mistakes. A misspelled word will cost you 5 points. You’ll lose 25 points if you misspell five words. If you write an incomplete sentence, you’ll lose 10 points. If you give me two complete sentences as one without adequate punctuation(标点),you’ll lose 15 points. I do not accept late papers. You will receive a zero for any theme(习作) which you fail to submit on time. I expect you to read each assignment. To make certain that you have read the assignment, I will give you a short unannounced quiz from time to time. This class meets on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. You will have a total of six major tests throughout the semester. Your final grade will be based on an average of these major tests and eight written themes. If you have any questions at any time, you can see me on Tuesdays. My office is on the second floor of this building. Your assignment for Wednesday is to read Hemingway’s short story on Page 55. Friday will be the last class day of this week, so you can expect to write a short in-class theme for me then.41. The course mentioned by the teacher is on______.A) reading B) assignmentsC) spelling D) writing42. When was this lecture given?A) On Monday B) On WednesdayC) On Thursday D) On Friday43. How many points will a student lose if he misspells 3 words and writes 2 incomplete sentences on a theme?A) 25 B) 35 C) 40 D) 4544. During the term the students are required to_________.A) write eight themes B) read Hemingway’s short storiesC) follow the rules of the school D) take six major tests and eight quizzes45. If the students have any questions, they may consult the teacher______.A) three times a week B) at any appointed timeC) in his office on Tuesdays D) before or after class on TuesdaysSection BDirections:In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Wise buying is a positive way in which you can make your money go further. The way you go about purchasing an article or a service can actually 46 you money or can add to the cost. Take the 47 example of a hairdryer. If you are buying a hairdryer, you might think that you are making the 48 buy if you choose one whose look you like and which is also the cheapest 49 price. But when you get it home you may find that it takes twice as long as more expensive 50 to dry your hair. The cost of the electricity plus the cost of your time could well make your hairdryer the most expensive one of all.So what principles should you 51 when you go out shopping? If you keep your home, your car or any valuable 52 in excellent condition, you’ll be saving money in the long run. Before you buy a new 53, talk to someone who owns one. If you can, use it or borrow it to check whether it suits your particular purpose. Before you buyan 54 appliance, or a service, do check the price and what is on offer.

They are left in the 56 of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their 57 children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any 58__ visitors. The truth is that this idea is an unfortunate myth of an59 story. In fact, family members provide 80 percent of the care 60 elderly people need. Samuel Preston, a sociologist, studied 61 the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the 62 American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children 63 .because people today live longer after an illness than people did years 64 , family members must provide long term care. Most psychologists have found that all caregivers 65 a common characteristic: All caregivers believe that they are best 66 for the job . In other words, they all felt that they 67 do the job better than anyone else. Social workers 68 caregivers to find out why they took 69 the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative. Many caregivers believed they had the 70 to help their relatives. Some stated that helping others 71 them feel more useful. Others hoped that by helping 72 now, they would deserve care when they became old and 73 .

React the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2One of Nature's most exciting mysteries is how pigeons find their way home over vast distances.Now German scientists believe they have discovered how the birds do it. Research has revealed that tiny iron structures in their beaks(鸟嘴)allow them toanalyze the earth's magnetic field - much like a compass(罗盘). Through the signals picked up, the birds can work out where they are and set out on the best course home.As well as pigeons, many other birds display a remarkable ability to fly thousands of miles to return to a specific garden or tree year after year. Scientists are suggesting they may have similar iron- containing cells in their beaks.In the past, experts have suggested the birds use the sun and stars to navigate, although in 2004 researchers found that many follow roads rather than their internal compass to plan their route. However scientists have long believed that they can in some way use the natural magnetism of the earth to navigate. The recent study by German scientists has revealed how this may be possible.The research used X-rays to examine the upper beaks of pigeons. They found that within the skin lining are tiny iron containing particles(微粒)in nerve branches which are arranged in a 3D pattern. The team, led by Gerta Fleissner, concluded that this allows the birds to react to the external magnetic field of the planet and work out their precise location.She pointed out that similar iron containing cells had been found in the beaks of robins, warblers and chickens so it may well turn out to be the way that other species also navigate.Scientists are still discovering more about the incredible abilities of the pigeon. Questions:76. Pigeons find their way home by picking up signals from__________.77. Like pigeons, other birds can return home, because their beaks have__________.78. In 2004 some researchers found that many birds do not __________to plan their route.79. The word “navigate” most probably means___________.80.

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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneIt is customary for adults to forget how hard and dull and long school is. The learning by memory of all the basic things one must know is a most incredible and unending effort. School is not easy and it is not for the most part very much fun, but then, if you are very lucky, you may find a real teacher. Three teachers in a lifetime are the very best of my luck. My first was a science and math teacher in high school, my second, a professor of creative writing at Stanford, and my third was my friend and partner, ED Rickets. I have to believe that a great teacher is a great artist and that there are as few as there are any other great artists. It might even be the greatest of the arts since the medium is the human mind and spirit. My three teachers had these things in common: They all loved what they were doing: they did not tell, but stimulated a burning desire to know. Under their influence, the horizons sprang wide and fear went away and the unknown became knowable. I shall speak only of my first teacher because in addition to the other things, she brought discovery. She aroused us to shouting, bookwaving discussions. She had the noisiest class in school and she did not even seem to know it. We could never stick to the subject. Our speculation(思绪)ranged the world. She breathed curiosity into us so that we brought in facts or truths shielded in our hands like captured fireflies(萤火虫). She was fired, and perhaps rightly so, for failing to teach fundamentals. Such things must be learned. But she left a passion(激情)in us for the pure knowable world and she inflamed me with a curiosity which has never left. I have had many teachers who told me soon-forgotten facts but only three who created in me a new attitude and a new hunger. What deathless power lies in the hands of such a person?1.In the writer’s opinion, school life is usually______.A.excitingB.interestingC.tiresomeD.challenging正确答案:C2.We can infer from Paragraph 2 that______.A.it is easy to find great artists as well as great teachersB.there are few great teachers but many great artistsC.the greatest artists are not easy to find: nor are the greatest teachersD.being a great teacher is a great art to learn because teachers spread knowledge 正确答案:C3.In the writer’s opinion, a good teacher should______.A.teach students the fundamental thingsB.stick to one subject and be strict with studentsC.teach students the knowledge ranging the worldD.arouse students’ curiosity and desire to know the world正确答案:D4.The writer’s first teacher was dismissed mainly because______.A.her class was the noisiest in schoolB.she did not teach basic knowledge in classC.she let students shout and wave books in classD.she did not know how to teach basic knowledge effectively正确答案:B5.What is the best title of this article?A.The Teachers in My LifeB.How to Become a TeacherC.What to Teach at SchoolD.What Makes a Good Teacher正确答案:DPassage TwoAccording to psychologists(心理学家), an emotion is aroused when a man or animal views something as either bad or good. When a person feels like running away from something he thinks will hurt him, we call this emotion fear. If the person wants to remove the danger by attacking it, we call the emotion anger. The emotions of joy and love are aroused when we think something can help us. An emotion does not have to be created by something in the outside world. It can be created by a person’s thoughts. Everyone has emotions. Many psychologists believe that infants are born without emotions. They believe children learn emotions just as they learn to read and write. A growing child not only learns his emotions but learns howto act in certain situations because of an emotion. Psychologists think that there are two types of emotion: positive and negative. Positive emotions include love, liking, joy, delight, and hope. They are aroused by something that appeals to a person. Negative emotions make a person unhappy or dissatisfied. They include anger, fear, despair, sadness, and disgust. In growing up, a person learns to cope with the negative emotions in order to be happy. Emotions may be weak or strong. Some strong emotions are so unpleasant that a person will try every means to escape from them. In order to feel happy, the person may choose unusual ways to avoid the emotion. Strong emotions can make it hard to think and to solve problems. They may prevent a person from learning or paying attention to what he is doing. For example, a student taking an examination may be so worried about failing that he cannot think properly. The worry drains valuable mental energy he needs for the examination.6.We learn from the passage that an emotion is created by something______.A.one feels in dangerB.one faces in the outside worldC.one thinks bad or goodD.one tries to escape from real life正确答案:C7.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A.Babies are born with emotions.B.Emotions fall into two types in general.C.Children learn emotions as they grow up.D.People can cope with the negative emotions in life.正确答案:A8.The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to______.A.explain why people have emotionsB.define and classify people’s emotionsC.show how people avoid the negative emotionsD.explain what people should do about emotions正确答案:B9.When a student is too worried about failing in the exam,______.A.he will simply give upB.he will not be able to think properlyC.he will need extra mental energyD.he will try very hard to solve the problems正确答案:B10.The word “drains”(Para .5)most probably means______.A.tiesB.stopsC.flowsD.weakens正确答案:DPassage ThreeMany a young person tells me he wants to be a writer. I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer”and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them . “not want to be a writer”. The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poorly-paid affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the US Coast Guard to become a ereelance(自由职业)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me a room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer. After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if? I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.11.The word “prospects”(Para .2)is closest in meaning to______.A.rich resourcesB.reasonable hopesC.strong desiresD.enormous advantages正确答案:B12.The writer mentions his 20-year career in the US Coast Guard in order to show______.A.his regret at leaving the armyB.his determination to realize his dreamC.his disappointment with the army lifeD.his excitement with the new life in the big city正确答案:B13.The writer would use all the following words to describe his life as a writer, except______.A.failureB.lonelinessC.wealthD.hard work正确答案:C14.What is the main idea of the passage?A.One may become a writer if he loves writing.B.One may become a writer if he keeps on writing.C.One will surely become a writer if he works hard.D.One will surely become a writer if he learns to write.正确答案:B15.Who do you think most likely wrote this passage?A.A poor dreamer.B.A successful writer.C.A journal editor.D.A literature professor.正确答案:BSection BDirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks.

Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2.The advantages of some form of international language in the modern world are obvious. Thanks to modern methods of transport, we can travel everywhere more easily and more quickly than ever before, but the language problem still remains. Without a common language, misunderstandings arise and there can be no real communication between people of different nationalities. There are two possible solutions to this problem: either we choose one of the existing major languages of the world, or we make up an artificial one. But neither solution is simple because no existing major language will be acceptable to everyone and because an artificial language, such as Esperanto(世界语), has no literature and would be thought dull by many learners. It is often said that English is quickly becoming a world language. It is certainly the most widely used language in the world, and second only to Chinese in its number of native speakers, but there are certain dangers in choosing English as an international language. First of all, owing to political reasons and national pride, English is not acceptable to everyone as a world language. Many dislike its influence: they see it as a form of interference, perhaps even domination. English words enter their languages and this too causes offence. Although English is being taught in more and more schools abroad, the process is not always popular. Not every nation is prepared to accept the dominant position of a foreign language in their educational system. Another danger is that differences in standard English arise from its use throughout the world. It could break up, with languages developing from dialects(方言)of English. Already Indian teachers and Nigerian students have been unable to understand each other’s English. Questions:46.Why can we travel more easily nowadays?正确答案:Because of modern methods of transport.47.Why is there no real communication between people of different nationalities? .正确答案:Because of misunderstandings without a common language.48.Which language is spoken by more people than any other language?正确答案:Chinese.49.What do many people dislike about English?正确答案:They dislike its influence.50.Why can’t Indian teachers and Nigerian students understand each other’s English?正确答案:Because differences in standard English arise from its use.Part ⅣWriting51.Some students prefer to start their own business after graduation. Others prefer to work for an employer. Which do you prefer? Give reasons to support your answer. Writer a short essay of about 100 words on this topic. Write your essay on Answer Sheet 2.正确答案:Nowadays there are many college students who choose to start their own business instead of working for an employer after graduation. This phenomenon has aroused great concern from the whole society. As for me, I prefer to work for an employer. The reasons are as follows: First of all, it is very difficult to run a business after graduation, because it needs firm determination, clear mind and the ability to endure hardship. Second, lots of college graduates have spent too much time studying at school without referring to the requirement of running a business. Therefore, college students should look before leap and make full preparation before starting their own business.。

Some people in places where television reception is good may think that television has taken the place of radio.Television, however, is actually a kind of radio. It uses special equipment for sending and receiving the picture. The television sound system uses the same type of equipment that is used in other forms of radio.Exchanging messages with ships at sea was one of the first uses of radio. Modern radio is still used for this purpose and for communication across oceans. On land radio provides a means of instant communication even with moving vehicles such as taxicabs or service trucks.Police forces use two-way radio to get information to and from officers in squad cars (警备车) and on motorcycles. Small portable sets make it possible to communicate with a central exchange while walking or riding in a city or over a rural area. Observers in airplanes can report traffic accidents, and traffic jams by radio to police officers on the ground.Radiotelephones are used in many places. Connection with the regular telephone service can be provided for boats, trains and cars. Isolated places in deserts, forests, and mountainous regions are linked by radiotelephone in many parts of the world. Thus by means of radio people can communicate with others wherever service is provided.61. According to the passage, television _____.A、has taken the place of radioB、is no longer popular in the homeC、can be regarded as a kind of radioD、has nothing in common with radio62. In paragraph two, “this purpose” refers to _____.A、exchanging messages with ships at seaB、communicating across oceansC、sending and receiving the pictureD、instant communication with moving vehicle63. According to the passage, radio is used in the following ways EXCEPT _____.A、at seaB、on landC、in the airD、underground64. The word “Isolated” in the last paragraph means _____.A、sandy and mountainousB、clean and not pollutedC、without any living thingsD、separated or distant65. The best title for the passage is _____.A、Television and RadioB、Radio and Its UsesC、Radio and RadiotelephonesD、Modern CommunicationPassage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 are based on the following passage:The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities. When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams’s daily paper but with a half-ounce packet of William’s favorite tobacco, John Rhiney’s Mixed. A gun-dog (猎狗) by breed, Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved (进化) for the safe carrying of hunted creature, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.Williams was a railway man, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil fuel. He had no work at odd times –“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams’s slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered.A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and the ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds.The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later –that was five days after the fall –Prince dropped the wallet into Williams’s had. Very muddy, dirty and wet through, the little case still contained fifty-three pounds, Williams’s driving license and a few other papers. Where the dog had found it no one could tell, but found that he had recognized it probably by the faint oil smell on the worn leather.66. What does the passage tell us about gun-dog?A、They are the fastest runners of all dogs.B、Their teeth are removed when they are young.C、They can carry birds, etc. without hurting them.D、They can produce many young dogs.67. It annoyed Williams’s family when _____.A、Williams had to go to work at nightB、the dog made loud sound in the houseC、the dog was used to traveling by trainD、the dog was confused about the time of the day68. The dog eventually found Williams’s wallet because _____.A、he knew where Williams had fallenB、he had seen it there and recognized itC、it contained over fifty poundsD、it had the smell familiar to him69. Which of the following is true of Williams according to the passage?A、He often did not get enough sleep.B、He often slept later than he should.C、He did not drink heavily.D、He liked saving money.70. Which of the following is the best description of Price?A、He was clever and loyal to Williams.B、He liked the sight of his owner.C、He understood human language.D、He was the best friend with Williams’s family.Passage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:The failed Skylab (空间站) will come screaming home to earth in disappointment sometime next month, but it will fall we know not where.That precise information is beyond even the calculations of scientists and their computers.The best they can tell us is that the space station, weighing 77 tons and as high as a 12-sstory building, will break into hundreds of pieces that will be scattered across a track 100 miles wide and 4000 mikes long.We are again exposed to one of those unexpected adventures, or misadventures, of science that attracts our attention from the boring routines of daily existence and encourages us to think a lot about man’s future.What worries Richard Smith, the Skylab’s director, is the “big pieces” that will come through the atmosphere. Two lumps, weighing 2 tons each, and ten weighing at least 1,000 pounds each, will come in at speeds of hundreds of miles an hour, and if they crash on land they will dig holes up to 100 feet deep.What worries us, with our lack of scientific knowledge and our quick imagination, is both the big and small pieces, although project officials say there is very little chance that anyone will be injured by them.That is good to know, but it does not remove the doubts of the millions who still remember the nuclear accident at Three Mile Island. That accident took place in 1979 in spite of what scientists had assured us as to the safety of the nuclear reactor.71. Where the Skylab will fall _____.A、cannot be predicted even by computerB、is kept secret from the whole worldC、is made public to all countriesD、is predicted by the scientists involved in the program72. The broken Skylab will _____.A、be in two lumps –one weighing 2 tons and the other weighing 10 tonsB、fall with the force of a 12-story buildingC、cover a large round areaD、break into 12 big pieces and hundreds of smaller ones73. In the fourth paragraph, we are told that _____.A、people usually do not pay attention to the environmentB、people expect to be exposed to dangers in their daily existenceC、the accident makes people worry about our safety on the earthD、most people consider their life boring74. The author refers to the accident of Three Mile Island _____.A、to express his doubts about scientists’ assuranceB、because he fears that a piece of the Skylab may strike a nuclear reactorC、to remind the reader of the terrible accidentD、because the nuclear reactor there and the Skylab were built by the same company75. What does the author mainly try to tell us in the passage?A、Science and technology need improving.B、Science may bring disasters to the human race.C、People should not readily believe experts.D、Ordinary people are more imaginative than scientists.Part V Translation from English into ChineseDirections: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined sections, numbered 76 to 80. After reading the passage carefully, translate the underlined sections into Chinese. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.English is not only used as a foreign language, it also has some kind of special status (地位) in those countries where it has been chosen as an official language. This is the case in Ghana and Nigeria, for example, where the governments have chosen English as the main language to carry on the affairs of government, education, commerce, the media, and the legal system. (76) In such cases, people have to learn English if they want to get success in life. (77) They have their mother-tongue to begin with and they start learning English, in school or in the street, at an early age. For them, in due course, English will become a language to fall back on –when their mother-tongue proves to be inadequate for communication –talking to people from a different background, for example, or to people from outside the country. For them, English becomes their “second” language.In 1985, the population of India was estimated to be 769 million. English is an official language here, alongside Hindi. (78) Several other languages have special status in their own regions, but English is the language of the legal system; it is a major language in Parliament; and it is apreferred language in the universities and in the all-India competitive exams for senior posts in such fields as the civil service and engineering. Some 3,000 English newspapers are published throughout the country. There is thus great reason to learn to use the language well. In real terms, (79) the English speakers of India may only number 70 million – a small amount compared with the total population. On the other hand, this figure is well in excess of the population in Britain.When all the estimates for second-language use around the world are added up, we reach a figure of around 300 million speakers – about as many as the total of mother-tongue users. But we have to remember that most of these countries are in parts of the world (Africa, Sough America) where the population increase is four times as great as that found in mother-tongue countries. (80) If present trends continue, within a generation mother-tongue English use will have been left far behind.76.77.78.79.80.Part VI Translation from Chinese into English81. 为了保护环境,我们必须减少各种污染。

English speakers enjoy creating new words. In fact, a majority of words aretraceable and each of them may have an interesting story.However, no one will really care where a word comes from because it makes little difference in using them in our dally life. Did you ever feel confused about why hamburgers are called hamburgers, especially when they are not made with ham?About a hundred years ago, some men went to American from Europe, coming from a big city in Germany called Hamburg. They didn't know how to use English properly. Seen them eating round pieces of beef and asked what it was, the Germans didn't understand the questions exactly, they answered: “we come from Hamburg. “One of the Americans was an owner of a restaurant and got an idea. He cooked some round pieces of bread with beef and began selling them. Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”. Today, hamburgers are welcomed by lots of people coming from different nationalities.36.

Being a good youth, one should have those factors: the basic one is health. A healthy body is a kind of priceless treasure. One can do nothing without it. Secondly, we should pay essential attention to our moral character. We should be always willing to help those in trouble without any complaints. Moreover, we should care more about the people around us. Thirdly, cooperation andcommunication also play an important role in being a good youth. No one can live alone without any friends. And nobody can work out every problem without help of partners. So the youth should and must learn how to live and work well with others, including those people you don't like to cooperate or communicate with. The last but not the least, patriotism, meaning a love of one's country, is the one we should never forget. People always misunderstand the word “patriots” by thinking it only refers to those fighters who fight for their country. As a matter of fact, a patriot will do the things his country asks him to do. So being a youth is one thing, being a good one really needs to take every effort to make yourself to be.41.

When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots” and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Willia ms’s daily paper but with a half-ounce packet of Williams’s favorite tobacco, John Rhiney’s Mixed. A gun-dog (猎狗) by breed, Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved (进化) for the safe carrying of huntedcreature, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.Williams was a railway man, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil fuel. He had no work at odd times—“days”, “late days” or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his retu rn, Williams’s slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered.A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and the ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds.The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the all—Prince dropped the wallet into Williams’s hand. Very muddy, dirty and wet through, the little case still contained fifty-three pounds, Williams’s driving license and a few othe r papers. Where the dog had found it no one could tell, but found that he had recognized it probably by the faint oil smell on the worn leather. 66. What does the passage tell us about gun-dog?A) They are the fastest runners of all dogs.B) Their teeth are removed when they are young.C) They can carry birds, etc. without hurting them.D) They can produce many young dogs.67. It annoyed Williams’s family when .A) Williams had to go to work at nightB) the dog made loud sounds in the houseC) the dog was used to traveling by trainD) the dog was confused about the time of the day68. The dog eventually found Williams’s wallet because .A) he knew where Williams had fallenB) he had seen it there and recognized itC) it contained over fifty poundsD) it had the smell familiar to him69. Which of the following is true of Williams according to the passage?A) He often did not get enough sleep.B) He often slept later than he should.C) He did not drink heavilyD) He liked saving money.70. Which of the following is the best description of Prince?A) He was clever and loyal to Williams.B) He liked the sight of his owner.C) He understood human language.D) He was the best fired with William’s family.Passage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:The failed Skylab (空间站) will come screaming home to earth in disappointment sometime next month, but it will fall we know not where.That precise information is beyond even the calculations of scientists and their computers.The best they can tell us is that the space station, weighing 77 tons and as high as a 12-story building, will break into hundreds of pieces that will be scattered across a track 100 miles wide and 4000 miles long.We are again exposed to one of those unexpected adventures, or misadventures, of science that attracts our attention from the boring routines of daily existence and encourages us to think a lot about man’s futur e.What worries Richard Smith, the Skylab’s director, is the “big pieces”that will come through the atmosphere. Two lumps, weighing 2 tons each, and ten weighing at least 1,000 pounds each, will come in at speeds of hundreds of miles an hour, and if they crash on land they will dig holes up to 100 feet deep.What worries us, with our lack of scientific knowledge and our quick imagination, is both the big and small pieces, although project officials say there is very little chance that anyone will be injured by them.That is good to know, but it does not remove the doubts of the millions who still remember the unclear accident at Three Mile Island. That accident took place in 1979 in spite of what scientists had assured us as to the safety of the nuclear reactor.71. Where the Skylab will fall .A) cannot be predicted even by computersB) is kept secret from the whole worldC) is made public to all countriesD) is predicted by the scientists involved in the program72. The broken Skylab will .A) be in two lumps—one weighing 2 tons and the other weighing 10 tonsB) fall with the force of a 12-story buildingC) cover a large round areaD) break into 12 big pieces and hundreds of smaller ones73. In the fourth paragraph, we are told that .A) people usually do not pay attention to the environmentB) people expect to be exposed to dangers in their daily existenceC) the accident makes people worry about our safety on the earthD) most people consider their life boring74. The author refers to the accident of Three Mile Island .A) to express his doubts about scientists’ assuranceB) because he fears that a piece of the Skylab may strike a nuclear reactorC) to remind the reader of the terrible accidentD) because the nuclear reactor there and the Skylab were built by the samecompany75. What does the author mainly try to tell us in the passage?A) Science and technology need improving.B) Science may bring disasters to the human race.C) People should not readily believe experts.D) Ordinary people are more imaginative than scientists.Part ⅤTranslation from English into Chinese Directions: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined parts, numbered 76 to 80.After reading the passage carefully, translate the underlined sections intoChinese. Remember to write your translation on the Translation Sheet.English is not only used as a foreign language, it also has some kind of special status (地位) in those countries where it has been chosen as an official language. This is the case in Ghana and Nigeria, for example, where the governments have chosen English as the main language to carry on the affairs of government, education, commerce, the media, and the legal system. (76)In such cases, people have to learn English if they want to get success in life. (77)They have their mother-tongue to begin with and they start learning English, in school or in the street, at an early age. For them, in due course, English will become a language to fall back on—when their mother-tongue proves to be inadequate for communication—talking to people from a different background, for example, or to people from outside the country. For them, English becomes their “second” language.In 1985, the population of India was estimated to be 768 million. English is an official language here, alongside Hindi. (78)Several other languages have special status in their own regions, but English is the language of the legal system; it is a major language in Parliament; and it is a preferred language in the universities and in the all-India competitive exams for senior posts in such fields as the civil service and engineering. Some 3,000 English newspapers are published throughout the country. There is thus great reason to learn to use the language well. In red terms, (79)the English speakers of India may only number 70 million—a small amount compared with the total population. On the other hand, this figure is well in excess of thepopulation in Britain.When all the estimates for second-language use around the world are added up, we reach a figure of around 300 million speakers—about as many as the total of the mother-tongue users. But we have to remember that most of these countries are in parts of the world (Africa, South America) where the population increase is four times as great as that found in mother-tongue countries. (80) If present trends continue, within a generation mother-tongue English use will have been left far behind.Part ⅥReading ComprehensionDirections: In this part there are five Chinese sentences, numbered 81 to 85. Translate these sentences into English and write them on the Translation Sheet.81.为了保护环境,我们必须减少各种污染。
2012年6月浙江省大学英语三级考试真题Part I Listening Comprehension (30 marks, 30 minutes)Part II Reading Comprehension (40 marks, 40 minutes)Section ADirections: There are 3 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 31-35 are based on the following passage;An American researcher has developed a simple device to help stop snoring.(打鼾). The device restricts the movements of the tissue(器官组织)that causes the bad sound. Snoring is a common problem. It may prevent a person from getting enough sleep. It may also prevent enough oxygen from reaching heart and lungs during sleep. But for most people, snoring affects relations with another person who must sleep in the same room.Snoring happens when the sleeping person breathes with the mouth open. In the back of the mouth the tissues surrounding the entrance of the throat are soft. As the person breathes, the movement of the air around the soft tissues causes them to move or vibrate. This tissue movement causes the sound we call snoring. A number of possible solutions have been proposed. Some devices keep the mouth shut. They force the patient to breathe only through the nose. A medical operation is also possible. Other devices catch the sound of snoring and then wake the patient. The new anti-snoring device was developed by a dentist(牙医), George Wagner of the Indian University School of Dentistry. He developed a piece of plastic that fits up against the inside of the mouth. The device keeps the soft tissues from vibrating and making the snoring noise. It is worn only at night. Doctor Wagner said several patients report that the simple device has ended their snoring problem.31. The passage mentions all the bad effects on the snorer EXCEPT__________.A) disturbing his roommate B) his lack of enough sleepC) harming his friendship D) his lack of enough oxygen32. People snore when______.A) they keep their mouths shut B) part of their throat becomes softC) part of their throat moves D) they breathe through mouth and nose33. How many solutions to the problem have been proposed so far?A) Three B) Four C) Five D) Six34. Which of the following statements about the new device is FALSE?A) It is worn at night B) It has not been used by many peopleC) It is made of plastic D) It was developed by a businessman35. What is the most likely place where one can find the passage?A) A novel B) A newspaperC) A textbook D) A scientific journalPassage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the price is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with hardly any chat and to everyone's satisfaction. Slight problems may begin for a man when the shop does not have what he wants, or does not have exactly what he wants. In that case the salesman always tries to sell the customer something else---he offers the nearest he can to the article required.Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look round”. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tellsher, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes, most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lockout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a laborious(费劲的) process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.36. When man buys clothes,____________.A) they choose things the salesman recommendsB) they buy right size things without trying them onC) they buy good quality things without a second considerationD) they do not mind how much they have to pay for the right things37. What is the man’s concern in terms of the fit of new clothes?A) They do not worry whether a thing fits well or notB) They make sure what fits before going shoppingC) They like their clothes to be bigger than the average sizeD) They often have no particular size in mind before going to the shop38. What does the passage tell us about women shopping for clothes?A) They listen to advice but never take itB) They often do not have a clear aim in mindC) They rarely consider buying cheap clothesD) They welcome suggestions from anyone around39. It is implied in the passage that women__________.A) like to buy cheap clothesB) always buy good quality clothes regardless of the priceC) tend to waste money on clothes which they don’t really wantD) think more of the price of clothes than of their colors and sizes40. Which of the following indicates the difference between men and women shoppers?A) Men do not try clothes on while women doB) Men do not spend as much time on buyingC) Women tend to be more talkative than menD) Women buy what they need but men do notPassage ThreeQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:If you’ve been on campus for very long, I’m certain that you’ve already heard about this course. You may know that last term about fifty percent of the students who selected my course failed it. Let me explain how this came about before you jump to any conclusions. In the first place, since this is a composition class, I expect my students to follow certain rules of formality(形式).Unfortunately, students today dislike having to follow rules of any kind, especially those which they may feel to be unnecessary. For example, I ask that each of your papers be typed. I count off points for various kinds of mistakes. A misspelled word will cost you 5 points. You’ll lose 25 points if you misspell five words. If you write an incomplete sentence, you’ll lose 10 points. If you give me two complete sentences as one without adequate punctuation(标点),you’ll lose 15 points. I do not accept late papers. You will receive a zero for any theme(习作) which you fail to submit on time. I expect you to read each assignment. To make certain that you have read the assignment, I will give you a short unannounced quiz from time to time. This class meets on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. You will have a total of six major tests throughout the semester. Your final grade will be based on an average of these major tests and eight written themes. If you have any questions at any time, you can see me on Tuesdays. My office is on the second floor of this building. Your assignment for Wednesday is to read Hemingway’s short story on Page 55. Friday will be the last class day of this week, so you can expect to write a short in-class theme for me then.41. The course mentioned by the teacher is on______.A) reading B) assignmentsC) spelling D) writing42. When was this lecture given?A) On Monday B) On WednesdayC) On Thursday D) On Friday43. How many points will a student lose if he misspells 3 words and writes 2 incomplete sentences on a theme?A) 25 B) 35 C) 40 D) 4544. During the term the students are required to_________.A) write eight themes B) read Hemingway’s short storiesC) follow the rules of the school D) take six major tests and eight quizzes45. If the students have any questions, they may consult the teacher______.A) three times a week B) at any appointed timeC) in his office on Tuesdays D) before or after class on TuesdaysSection BDirections:In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Wise buying is a positive way in which you can make your money go further. The way you go about purchasing an article or a service can actually 46 you money or can add to the cost. Take the 47 example of a hairdryer. If you are buying a hairdryer, you might think that you are making the 48 buy if you choose one whose look you like and which is also the cheapest 49 price. But when you get it home you may find that it takes twice as long as more expensive 50 to dry your hair. The cost of the electricity plus the cost of your time could well make your hairdryer the most expensive one of all.So what principles should you 51 when you go out shopping? If you keep your home, your car or any valuable 52 in excellent condition, you’ll be saving money in the long run. Before you buy a new 53, talk to someone who owns one. If you can, use it or borrow it to check whether it suits your particular purpose. Before you buyan 54 appliance, or a service, do check the price and what is on offer. If possible, choose55 three items or three estimates.A. possessionB. saveC. bestD. expensiveE. materialF. fromG. simpleH. withI. inJ. wasteK. model L. item M. easy N. adopt O. reasonablePart III Integrated Testing (IS marks, 20 minutes)Section ADirections:There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A). B), C) and D). You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centerMany people wrongly believe that when people reach old age, their families place them in nursing homes. They are left in the 56 of strangers for the rest of their lives. Their 57 children visit them only occasionally, but more often, they do not have any 58__ visitors. The truth is that this idea is an unfortunate myth of an59 story. In fact, family members provide 80 percent of the care 60 elderly people need. Samuel Preston, a sociologist, studied 61 the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the 62 American couple reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children 63 .because people today live longer after an illness than people did years 64 , family members must provide long term care.

In other words, they all felt that they 67 do the job better than anyone else. Social workers 68 caregivers to find out why they took 69 the responsibility of caring for an elderly relative. Many caregivers believed they had the 70 to help their relatives. Some stated that helping others 71 them feel more useful.

React the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements with no more than 10 words Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2One of Nature's most exciting mysteries is how pigeons find their way home over vast distances.Now German scientists believe they have discovered how the birds do it. Research has revealed that tiny iron structures in their beaks(鸟嘴)allow them toanalyze the earth's magnetic field - much like a compass(罗盘). Through the signals picked up, the birds can work out where they are and set out on the best course home.As well as pigeons, many other birds display a remarkable ability to fly thousands of miles to return to a specific garden or tree year after year. Scientists are suggesting they may have similar iron- containing cells in their beaks.In the past, experts have suggested the birds use the sun and stars to navigate, although in 2004 researchers found that many follow roads rather than their internal compass to plan their route. However scientists have long believed that they can in some way use the natural magnetism of the earth to navigate. The recent study by German scientists has revealed how this may be possible.The research used X-rays to examine the upper beaks of pigeons. They found that within the skin lining are tiny iron containing particles(微粒)in nerve branches which are arranged in a 3D pattern. The team, led by Gerta Fleissner, concluded that this allows the birds to react to the external magnetic field of the planet and work out their precise location.She pointed out that similar iron containing cells had been found in the beaks of robins, warblers and chickens so it may well turn out to be the way that other species also navigate.Scientists are still discovering more about the incredible abilities of the pigeon. Questions:76. Pigeons find their way home by picking up signals from__________.77. Like pigeons, other birds can return home, because their beaks have__________.78. In 2004 some researchers found that many birds do not __________to plan their route.79. The word “navigate” most probably means___________.80.

Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a short essay on the topic of Due Attention Should Be Given To Spelling.You should write at least120words following the outline given below:1.如今不少学生在英语学习中不重视拼写2.出现这种情况的原因3.为了改变这种状况,我认为…Due Attention Should Be Given To Spelling___________________________________________________________________________ ____Part II Reading Comprehension(Skimming and Scanning)(15minutes)Directions:In this part,you will have15minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer Sheet1.For questions1-7,choose the best answer from the four choices marked A),B),C)and D).For questions8-10,complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Caught in the WebA few months ago,it wasn't unusual for47-year-old Carla Toebe to spend15hours per day online.She'd wake up early,turn on her laptop and chat on Internet dating sites and instant-messaging programs–leaving her bed for only brief intervals.Her household bills piled up,along with the dishes and dirty laundry,but it took near-constant complaints from her four daughters before she realized she had a problem."I was starting to feel like my whole world was falling apart–kind of slipping into a depression,"said Carla."I knew that if I didn't get off the dating sites,I'd just keep going," detaching(使脱离)herself further from the outside world.Toebe's conclusion:She felt like she was"addicted"to the Internet.She's not alone.Concern about excessive Internet use isn't new.As far back as1995,articles in medical journals and the establishment of a Pennsylvania treatment center for overusers generated interest in the subject.There's still no consensus on how much time online constitutes too much or whether addiction is possible.But as reliance on the Web grows,there are signs that the question is getting more serious attention:Last month,a study published in CNS Spectrums claimed to be the first large-scale look at excessive Internet use.The American Psychiatric Association may consider listing Internet addiction in the next edition of its diagnostic manual.And scores of online discussion boards have popped up on which people discuss negative experiences tied to too much time on the Web."There's no question that there're people who're seriously in trouble because they're overdoing their Internet involvement,"said psychiatrist(精神科医生)Ivan Goldberg. Goldberg calls the problem a disorder rather than a true addiction.Jonathan Bishop,a researcher in Wales specializing in online communities,is more skeptical."The Internet is an environment,"he said."You can't be addicted to the environment."Bishop describes the problem as simply a matter of priorities,which can be solved by encouraging people to prioritize other life goals and plans in place of time spent online.The new CNS Spectrums study was based on results of a nationwide telephone survey of more than2,500adults.Like the2005survey,this one was conducted by Stanford University researchers.About6%of respondents reported that"their relationships suffered because of excessive Internet use."About9%attempted to conceal"nonessential Internet use,"and nearly4%reported feeling"preoccupied by the Internet when offline."About8%said they used the Internet as a way to escape problems,and almost14% reported they"found it hard to stay away from the Internet for several days at a time.""The Internet problem is still in its infancy,"said Elias Aboujaoude,a Stanford professor. No single online activity is to blame for excessive use,he said."They're online in chat rooms, checking e-mail,or writing blogs.[The problem is]not limited to porn(色情)or gambling" websites.Excessive Internet use should be defined not by the number of hours spent online but"in terms of losses,"said Maressa Orzack,a Harvard University professor."If it's a loss[where] you're not getting to work,and family relationships are breaking down as a result,then it's too much."Since the early1990s,several clinics have been established in the U.S.to treat heavy Internet users.They include the Center for Internet Addiction Recovery and the Center for Internet Behavior.The website for Orzack's center lists the following among the psychological symptoms of computer addiction:●Having a sense of well-being(幸福)or excitement while at the computer.●Longing for more and more time at the computer.●Neglect of family and friends.●Feeling empty,depressed or irritable when not at the computer.●Lying to employers and family about activities.●Inability to stop the activity.●Problems with school or job.Physical symptoms listed include dry eyes,backaches,skipping meals,poor personal hygiene(卫生)and sleep disturbances.People who struggle with excessive Internet use maybe depressed or have other mood disorders,Orzack said.When she discusses Internet habits with her patients,they often report that being online offers a"sense of belonging,and escape,excitement[and]fun,"she said. "Some people say relief…because they find themselves so relaxed."Some parts of the Internet seem to draw people in more than others.Internet gamers spend countless hours competing in games against people from all over the world.One such game,called World of Warcraft,is cited on many sites by posters complaining of a"gaming addiction."Andrew Heidrich,an education network administrator from Sacramento,plays World of Warcraft for about two to four hours every other night,but that's nothing compared with the40to60hours a week he spent playing online games when he was in college.He cut back only after a full-scale family intervention(干预),in which relatives told him he'd gained weight."There's this whole culture of competition that sucks people in"with online gaming,said Heidrich,now a father of two."People do it at the expense of everything that was a constant in their lives."Heidrich now visits websites that discuss gaming addiction regularly"to remind myself to keep my love for online games in check."Toebe also regularly visits a site where posters discuss Internet overuse.In August,when she first realized she had a problem,she posted a message on a Yahoo Internet addiction group with the subject line:"I have an Internet Addiction.""I'm self-employed and need the Internet for my work,but I'm failing to accomplish my work,to take care of my home,to give attention to my children,"she wrote in a message sent to the group."I have no money or insurance to get professional help;I can't even pay my mortgage(抵押贷款)and face losing everything."Since then,Toebe said,she has kept her promise to herself to cut back on her Internet use."I have a boyfriend now,and I'm not interested in online dating,"she said by phone last week."It's a lot better now."注意:此部分试题请在答题卡1上作答。
