For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneIn your car you may have a cell phone, a telephone also known as a mobile phone that you can carry around and use anywhere. On your way, you may feel coordinated and enjoy your hands-free phone talking while driving. But recent studies suggest that it isn‟t the dialing or the arm waving that makes driving while talking on a cell phone dangerous. It is the yakking itself --- or more precisely, the continuous conversation with someone who isn't present --- that makes. David Strayer, a Utah psychologist, says “Your driving performance while talking on a cell phone is weakened at levels comparable to, or worse than, driving with a blood alcohol level of 0.08,” which is t he legal limit in most states of America.Using a driving-training simulator, Strayer and his colleagues compared the attention levels and response time of 110 drivers in various situations. In dense traffic, cell phone users were about 20 percent slower to respond to sudden hazards than other drivers, and they were about twice as likely to drive into the back of a braking car in front of them. "Cell phone drivers are obtaining less than 50 percent of the visual information that non-cell drivers are getting," says Strayer. "Looking and seeing are not one and the same." By contrast, the researchers found that listening to the radio or conversing with passengers is not as hazardous. "When adangerous situation arises, the driver and passengers put their conversation on pause," Strayer says.Whether talking with a passenger or someone on a cell phone, however, people are less able to recall the details of a conversation carried on while driving. "So it might not be good for your economic health to discuss investment strategies with your agent while either of you is driving." Strayer adds lastly.16. According to the recent studies, which of the following makes driving dangerous?A. A cell phone dialing by the driver.B. The driver's endless arm waving.C. The driver's continuous cell phone talking.D. The absence of another phone speaker.17. Which of the following does Strayer want to stress most?A. The driving performance may be weakened by a cell phone talking.B. The driving performance may be affected by a high blood alcohol level.C. Drivers are not to drive over the cell phone or after drinking.D. A cell phone talking is no less hazardous than alcohol in driving.18. The experiment shows all the following EXCEPT that_________.A. the cell phone drivers get less than half of the visual informationB. the cell phone drivers are twice as likely to hit the front carsC. the cell phone drivers' response to sudden dangers is slowerD. the 110 drivers were reluctant to take part in the experiments19. Strayer discourages drivers from talking, about business on cell phones while driving because____________.A. they tend to forget the details of a conversationB. both the driver and his agent happen to be drivingC. it might not be good for the driver's memoryD. the other passengers would overhear the conversation20. It can be inferred that the author's attitude toward cell phone yakking is_________.A. approvingB. disapprovingC. encouragingD. indifferentPassage TwoIt's no great surprise that Bill Gates has decided to walk away from his day-to-day involvement with Microsoft, and use his full attention to oversee howthe Bill Gates Foundation spends its $ 16 billion on philanthropy, or charity. But Gates is not the first one to follow the path. Ever since the industrial revolution, wealthy self-made businessmen and businesswomen have felt a calling to create a legacy that goes beyond a profit and loss sheet. The saying "He who dies rich, dies disgraced" runs deeply through the business community.But out of all the great philanthropists, Mr. Gate‟s career path appears to be closest to the oil millionaire John Rockefeller. Both were self-made men and both became the richest men on the planet. Rockefeller was in his late fifties when he turned his attention full time to philanthropy--- creating vast charitable foundations to promote health and education. Now Gates says he will do the same in his early fifties. "With great wealth comes great responsibility," he adds.Like Gates, many philanthropists do not want to pass on too much wealth to their children. They want them to be comfortable, with a nice house and some money in trust for their grandchildren. But they don't want to leave them millions and millions because they know how important it is for them to make their own way. In Britain, for instance, the newspaper rich lists are increasingly dominated by self-made millionaires, rather than inherited wealth. New money is less likely to be tied up in assets, making it ripe for philanthropyThe appearance of the welfare state also had a great impact on attitudes to philanthropy. The state was saying it would take over much of the role of what was once regarded as the responsibility of private philanthropists.21. Bill Gates has done all the following EXCEPT_________.A. abandoning his career with Microsoft's daily businessB. devoting the rest of his life to philanthropic causesC. leaving his children enough money for a comfortable lifeD. defying John Rockefeller in creating charitable foundations22. The saying "He who dies rich, dies disgraced" properly means that________.A. the wealthy people should give away their fortunes after deathB. the wealthy people should feel ashamed for-their assetsC. the wealthy people should abandon their careers for charitiesD. it is shameful for the wealthy people to keep their wealth till death23. Gates and Rockefeller are similar in that_____________.A. both of them inherited their wealthB. their career paths are exactly the sameC. both decided to devote to charity in their fiftiesD. both made their fortunes in the same way24. Many wealthy people don't want to leave too much behind mainly because___________.A. it is not easy for them to make their fortunesB. they want their children to make their own wayC. they just wish their children to have a comfortable lifeD. they hope to gain reputation by donating their wealth25. The chief reason why philanthropy has come into a good stage isthat____________.A. the new money is less likely to be regarded as one's private wealthB. Gates will devote his full attention to philanthropyC. the welfare state would take over all the charity responsibilitiesD. many new millionaires are self-made rather than inheritedPassage ThreeIn 1991, when announced to be HIV positive, "Magic" Johnson became the face of a disease that the public still had a lot to learn about. The basketball star established the Magic Johnson Foundation that year and took a leading role on the public relations and fund-raising fronts in the fight against HIV and AIDS. Fifteen years later, there is still more work to do.“A lot of times, what happens is that the poster's not enough,”Johnson says, motioning to his likeness on the blackboard behind him. “So I have to get out and tell them myself, like I'm doing here today.” Johnson is now talking to an assembly at Boys and Girls High School in his neighborhood of Brooklyn, N.Y. The crowd is a few hundred students in a mostly black, working-class neighborhood. Thus event is the fourth of a 10-city speaking tour that is organized for minority communities.According to drug maker Abbot, half of the more than I million Americans living with HIV are black. African-American men are being diagnosed with the disease at a rate 10 times as high as that of white men. For women, the situation is even worse. The rate of diagnosis for African-American women is 23 times as high as that for their white counterparts.“Right now, we don't have a solution on how to combat it, so we're trying to do some different things than w hat has happened before,” Johnsonsays.Getting the word out is what draws Johnson to black neighborhood high schools such as this one, and the message he brings with him is a practical one.“The safest sex is no sex,” he says. “But, in reality, we know on ly a certain number of people are going to hear that. Then I hit them with …Hey, if you're going to do it, you've got to protect yourself and your partner.‟”Hopefully, by talking realistically instead of avoiding the issues, Johnson can help make the next generation of African-Americans less likely to have HIV and AIDS. “just try to be real with them,” he says. “They appreciate that.”26. The phrase “disease that the public still had a lot to learn about" here means a disease that_________.A. was already well-known thenB. was too complicated for peopleC. was still too new to be understoodD. killed too many victims then27. According to the passage, the group with the Highest ASS rate is_______.A. the white AmericansB.African-American menC. the American womenD. the black American women28.The speaker is named "Magic" Johnson because________.A. he was once a famous basketball coachB. he was a happy survivor of the unhappy diseaseC. he was given chance to talk of his own experienceD. he was a very practical and realistic person in life29. The word "combat" (Paragraph 4) is closest in meaning to________.A. comebackB. combineC. fight againstD. avoid30. What is the purpose of Johnson's speech tour?A. To take himself as an example in fighting the disease.B. To raise the awareness of young Americans against the disease.C. To provide a better cure for the black American HIV sufferers.D. To try some new medical solutions on the HIV and AIDS sufferers.Passage FourOnce upon a time all you needed for a camping trip was a sleeping bag, a compass and some common sense. Now, according to my local sporting goods retailer, a lot more should be added. However, outdoor travel has become such a trend thaturban people find themselves with some upscale retailers to address their every desire."Eco" and "adventure" are the latest fashionable words in destination travel; those n the industry know they can make serious cash off all the consumers. These are consumers who get outdoors not for nature's sake, but to work out simply for a splendid cocktail party.As a result of high-end demand, the great outdoors is becoming less affordable and accessible for ordinary people. Our national parks used to be vast acres of wilderness where people could go and enjoy nature, for free. But over the past 100-years, the government has been slowly selling or leasing off public lands-for-profit, and our current president is continuing the trend. Large ski resorts have swallowed up plenty of wilderness and small towns in the West by attracting more high-end businesses. Nature is now a commodity that can be repackaged and sold to the wealthy developers. As for the small amount of public land Left, well, try to remember the last time you camped at a state park for free.The Joneses and everyone trying to keep up with them want a piece of the outdoors, but only with creature comforts included. The rest of us are being slowly priced out of nature. Pretty soon my tent and sleeping pack will be out of date;since camping will mean a luxury yurt with skylights for star-gazing. If this is what signifies experiencing nature in the new millennium, then Thoreau must be rolling in his grave.31. According to the author, outdoor travel has now become________.A. less needed for the urban residentsB. an uncontrolled trend for city dwellersC. an ever more attractive interest for urban peopleD. so economical that most urban people can afford it32.The phrase "make serious cash off all the consumers" (Paragraph 2) means “____”A .make consumers deposit all their money into bankB. cause the consumers to use up all their moneyC.make all the consumers cash their money in the bankD.make a careful plan to attract as many consumers as possible33. Paragraph 2 is written to_______.A. introduce the nature's change of the outdoor travel todayB. criticize the outdoor campers for their waste of moneyD.describe the difference of outdoor camping today and what it was beforeD. imply the strong influence of the consuming society on the outdoortravel34. The author believes that________.A. the government is right to sell or 'lease public lands to wealthydevelopersB. public lands shouldn't have been sold or leased to individuals for profitsC: nature should be left for wide public. to enjoy rather than to rentD. the outdoor campers should be more clear-minded in spending money35. What can ordinary city dwellers do if the current outdoor travel trend continues?A. They can do nothing but give up their outdoor travel.B. They would feel angry and protest against the ill-trend.C. The government and the industry may change their attitude.D. Fewer and fewer urban people will make their seasonal outdoor travel.

Enter the Red Hat Society —a group holding the belief that old ladies should have fun."My grandmothers didn't do anything but keep house and serve everybody. They were programmed to do that," said Emily Cornette, head of a chapter of the 7-year-old Red Hat Society.While men have long spent their time fishing and playing golf, womenhave sometimes seemed to become unnoticed as theyage. But the generation now turning 50 is the baby boomers （生育高峰期出生的人），and the same people who refused their parents' way of being young are now trying a new way of growing old.If you take into consideration feminism （女权主义）,a bit of spare money, and better health for most elderly, the Red Hat Society looks almost inevitable （必然的）.Inthis society, women over 50 wear red hats and purple （紫色的）clothes, while thewomen under 50 wear pink hats and light purple clothing."The organization took the idea from a poem by Jenny Joseph that begins: 'When Iam an old woman, I shall wear purple. With a red hat which doesn't go,'" said Ellen Cooper, who founded the Red Hat Society in 1998. When the ladies started to wear the red hats, they attracted lots of attention."The point of this is that we need a rest from always doing something for someone else," Cooper said. "Women feel so ashamed and sorry when they do something for themselves." This is why chapters are discouraged from raising money or doing anything useful. "We're a ladies' play group. It couldn't be simpler," added Cooper's assistant Joe Heywood.1小题＞The underlined word "chapter" in Paragraph 2 means.A a branch of an organizationB a written agreement of a clubC a part of a collection of poemsD a period in a society's history 答案解析：点击杳看答案解析2小题＞From the text, we know that the "baby boomers" are a group of people whoA have gradually become more noticeableB are worried about getting old too quicklyC are enjoying a good life with plenty of money to spendD tried living a different life from their parents when they were young答案解析：点击查看答案解析3小题＞It could be inferred from the text that members of the Red Hat Society are.A interested in raising money for social workB programmers who can plan well for their futureC believers in equality between men and womenD good at cooking big meals and taking care of others答案解析：点击查看答案解析4小题＞Who set up the Red Hat Society?A Emily Cornette.B Ellen Cooper.C Jenny Joseph.D Joe Heywood.答案解析：点击查看答案解析5小题＞Women join the Red Hat Society because.A they want to stay youngB they would like to appear more attractiveC they would like to have fun and live for themselvesD they want to be more like their parents答案解析：点击查看答案解析第19 题：Reading Comprehension:There have been at least four such pigeon pick-ups in Changwa. What at first seemed like the work of a clever stay at-home car thief, however, may in fact be the work of an even lazier and more inventive criminal mind one that avoids（避免）not onlycollecting money but going out to steal the car in the first place. Police officer Chen says that the criminal probably has played a double trick, he gets money for things he cannot possibly return. Instead of stealing cars, he lets someone else do it and then waits for the car-owner to place an ad （启示）in the newspaper asking for help.The theory is supported by the fact that, so far, none of the stolen cars have been returned.

They sought a university thatoffered the teenager's intended major, one located near a large city, and a campus where their daughter would be safe."The safety issue is a big one," says Joe Mahoney, who quickly discovered he wasn't alone in his worries. On campus tours other parents voiced similar concerns, andthe same question was always asked, what about crime? But when college officialsalways gave the same answer — "That's not a problem here," Mahoney began to feel uneasy."No crime whatsoever?" comments Mahoney today. "I just don't buy it." Nor should he. in 1999 the U.S. Department of Education had reports of nearly 400,000 serious crimes on or around our campuses. "Parents need to understand that times have changed since they went to college," says David Nichols, author of Creating a Safe Campus"Campus crime mirrors the rest of the nation."But getting accurate information isn't easy. Colleges must report crime statistics by law, but some hold back for fear of bad publicity, leaving the honest ones looking dangerous. "The truth may not always be obvious," warns S. Daniel Carter of Security on Campus, Inc., the nation's leading campus safety watchdog group.To help concerned parents, Carter promised to visit campuses and talk to experts around the country to find out major crime issues and effective solutions.1小题＞The Mahoneys visited quite a few colleges last August.A to express the opinions of many parentsB to choose a right one for their daughterC to check the cost of college educationD to find a right one near a large city 答案解析：点击查看答案解析2小题＞It is often difficult to get correct information on campus crime because some colleges.A receive too many visitorsB mirror the rest of the nationC hide the truth of campus crimeD have too many watchdog groups 答案解析：点击查看答案解析3小题＞The underlined word "buy" in the third paragraph re, cansA mindB admitC believeD expect答案解析：点击查看答案解析4小题＞We learn from the text that "the honest ones" in the fourth paragraph most probably refers to collegesA that are protected by campus securityB that report campus crime by lawC that are free from campus crimeD that enjoy very good publicity答案解析：点击查看答案解析5小题＞What is the text mainly about?A Exact campus crime statistics.B Crimes on or around campuses.C Effective solutions to campus crime.D Concerns about kids'campus safety.答案解析：点击查看答案解析第21 题：Reading Comprehension:The house was quiet at 5 am and Tim's mother was asleep. Only the sound of the big freezer broke the quiet. He'd dreamt of the cave last night. The purring of the freezer had been the sea.Tim pulled on a sweater and put some apples into his schoolbag. It was too earlyfor breakfast. He'd eat after he'd been through the cave, sitting on the rocks and staring at the sea.He wished he had a proper pack. His schoolbag would have to do. What else?Sandwiches-but his mother might wake up if he started pulling out bread for sandwiches, she'd want to know why he had to leave so early. He settled for some biscuits, and left a note stuck to the table:Gone to Michael's. Back tonight. Tim.The sky was high and soft and light outside, though the sun still wasn't up. Eventhe highway up the hill was quiet as he made his way down the street. The wind fromthe sea was fresh and sweet.The sandhills still breathed heat from yesterday's sun, though the top of the sand was cool. He ran down to the beach impatiently, but there was no one, just dry sand dancing in the early wind and seabirds marching up and down watching the waves.The light changed suddenly. The first rays of sunlight stretched across the sea.The sun was pushing its way over the edge of the world.Over the first rocks, along to the point, Tim glanced back. The beach was still empty. The sun sailed higher in the sky. He could see the cave now, even darker in the morning light. The sand turned silver then dark gold as the water flowedaway from it. He had to force himself to go closer. Whywas it so much more mysterious now? But it would be silly to go back now after so much trouble. He needn't go in all the way.1小题＞What did Tim do at the beginning of the story?A He left the house quietly.B He had breakfast at home.C He left a note on the freezer.D He put a sweater in his schoolbag.答案解析：点击查看答案解析2小题＞"He settled for some biscuits " (in Paragraph 3) means that Tim.A had to leave the biscuits on the tableB liked biscuits better than sandwichesC had to take biscuits instead of sandwichesD could only find some biscuits in the kitchen答案解析：点击查看答案解析3小题＞What made it possible for Tim to see the entry to the cave?A The height of the first rocks.B The ups and downs of the waves.C The change in the position of the sun.D The vast stretch of the sunlit beach.答案解析：点击查看答案解析4小题＞Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the story?A The sea looked like a piece of gold.B Seabirds flew away when Tim arrived.C Tim was the only person on the beach.D The sky got dark as Tim reached the cave.答案解析：点击查看答案解析5小题＞In the story, Tim's mood6情)changed from.A loneliness to crazinessB anxiousness to excitementC helplessness to happinessD eagerness to nervousness答案解析：点击查看答案解析第22题：单选题：Without electricity, what?A will the world be likeB would the world be likeC the world will be likeD the world be like答案解析：点击查看答案解析第23题：单选题：The great damage which the flood made a great many people homeless.A brought toB brought aboutC brought upD brought out答案解析：点击查看答案解析第24题：单选题：We always keep spare paper, in case we run out.A too muchB a number ofC plenty ofD a good many答案解析：点击查看答案解析第25题：单选题：Hard work has the waste hill into green field.A changedB turnedC becomeD got答案解析：点击杳看答案解析第26题：单选题: catching the fever himself the man kindly carried the sick child home.A A head ofB At the sightC At the risk ofD By way of答案解析：点击查看答案解析第27题：单选题：The road sign is easy to read; the words well.A make outB stand outC work outD turn out答案解析：点击查看答案解析第28题：单选题：I'm very grateful for your help and hope that someday I may be able to do some thing for youA in exchangeB insteadC in returnD in particular答案解析：点击查看答案解析第29题：单选题：How can he without money for food during the journey?A get togetherB get alongC get backD get down答案解析：点击查看答案解析第30题：单选题：I think Father would like to know I've been up to so far, so I decide to send him a quick note.A whichB whyC whatD how答案解析：点击查看答案解析第31题：单选题：Sports and games can be great help to us.A ofB atC onD in答案解析：点击查看答案解析第32题：单选题：After her time in hospital, Jenny's parents are afraid she has in her lessons.A fallen behindD fallen off答案解析：点击查看答案解析第33题：单选题：He an old friend in the street the other day.A came aboutB came acrossC came fromD came into答案解析：点击查看答案解析第34题：单选题：Every year a lot of life species die.A outB awayC ofD from答案解析：点击杳看答案解析第35题：单选题：We're trying to ring you back, Bryan, but we think we your number incorrectly.A looked upB took downC worked outD brought about答案解析：点击查看答案解析第36题：单选题：Kate can't drive yet, but she wants.A the own carB the car of her ownC an own carD a car of her own答案解析：点击查看答案解析第37题：单选题：I thought it was going to rain but it has fine.B come outC brought outD put up with答案解析：点击查看答案解析第38题：单选题：She made a few mistakes playing the violin, but you should make for her since she's only been playing for a year.A allowancesB promisesC roomD way答案解析：点击杳看答案解析第39题：单选题：How happy they are!

But he didn’t have lave or friendship because he couldn’t buy them. All his life he used his money to control everything and everyone around him. In the end, he lostcontrol of everything, even himself.Howard Hughes was born in 1905 in Houston, Texas. His father started the Hughes Tool Company. He was a workaholic（工作狂）and made a lot of money.

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem, the reefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life. In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local economies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other businesses, bringing in billions of dolllars.（79）Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A riseof just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae（水藻）. Then the corals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefswill need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishing, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists.

But nowhere in history have students banned （禁止）bottled water. Until now.The bottled water ban, which Parted on just a few campuses, has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether, or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access（获取）to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually, while drinking from plastic containers costs $I,400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causes depression, but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations. The makers of bottled water see the movement as a threat. (80) They argue that plastic bottles make UP a small portion of the nation’s total waste.

The plain truth is that jogging is a cheap. quick and efficient way to maintain physical fitness.2......If these systems are fit, the body is ready for almost any sport and for almost any sudden demand made by work or emergencies,One can train more specially,as by developing strength for weight lifting or the ability to run straight ahead for short distances with great power as in football, but jogging trains your heart and lungs to deliver oxygen more efficiently to all parts of your body. It is worth noting that this sort of exercise is the only kind that can reduce heart disease, the number one cause of death in America.3...... Physicians advise beginning joggers not to run in a tennis or gym shoe. Many design advances have been made in only the last several years that make an excellent running shoe necessary if a runner wishes to develop as quickly as possible, with as ltle chance of injury as possible. A wise investment in good shoes will prevent blisters and the foot, ankle and knee injuries and will also enable the wearer to run on paved or surfaces.No other special equipment is needed,4........ Many joggers wear expensive warm-up suits,but just as many wear last year's clothes.5......The American jogging Association has a twelve-week program designed to move from a fifeen-minute walk (which almost anyone can manage who is in reasonable health) to a thirty-minute run.A measure of common sense, a physical examination,and a planned schedule are all it takes.A.We all like jogging.B.The most usefu1 sort of exercise is one that develops the heart,lungs and circulatory systems|(2)C.It takes surprisingly lttle time to develop the ability to run. (5)D.Jogging, running slowly for long distance, has become the most popular individual sport in America. (1)E.You can jog in any clothing you desire, even your street clothes.

Each generation of artists has shown theirunderstanding of reality in one form or another.The impressionists saw re-ality in briefemotional effects, the realists in everyday subjects and in forest scenes, and theCro-Magnon cave people in their naturalistic drawings of the animals in theancient for-ests.To sum up, understanding reality is anecessary struggle for artists of all periods.Over thousands of years thefunction of the arts has remained relatively constant.Past or present, Eastern orWestern, the arts are a basic part of our immediate experi-ence.Many and different are the facesof art, and together they express the basic need and hope of human beings.11.The underlined word "poetry"most probably means__________.A.an object for artistic creationB.a collection of poemsC.an unusual qualityD.a natural scene答案：C12.Leslie's paintings areextraordinary because __________.A.they are close in style to works in ancienttimesB.they look like works by 19th-century paintersC.they draw attention to common things in lifeD.they depend heavily on color photography答案：C13.What is the author's opinion ofartistic reality?A.It will not be found in future works of art.B.It does not have a long-lasting standard.C.It is expressed in a fixed artistic form.D.It is lacking in modern works of art.答案：B14.What does the author suggestabout the arts in the last paragraph?A.They express people's curiosity about the past.B.They make people interested in everydayexperience.C.They are considered important for variety inform.D.They are regarded as a mirror of the humansituation.答案：D15.Which of the following is themain topic of the passage?A.History of the arts.B.Basic questions of the arts.C.New developments in the arts.e of modern technology in the arts.答案：BThere are two types of peoplein the world.Although they have equal degree of health and wealth and othercomforts of life, one becomes happy and the other becomes unhap-py.This arises from the different ways in which they considerthings,persons, events and the resulting effects upon their minds.People who are to be happy fixtheir attention on the convenience of things: the pleas-ant parts ofconversation, the well prepared dishes, the goodness of the wine and the fine weather.They enjoy all the cheerfulthings.Those who are to be unhappy think and speak onlyof the opposite things.Therefore, they are continuallydissatisfied.By their remarks,they sour the pleasureof society, hurt many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere.If this turn of mind was founded in nature, such unhappy personswould be the more to be pitied.The intention ofcriticizing (批评) and being disliked is perhaps taken upby imitation (模仿).It growsinto a habit, unknown to its possessors.The habit maybe strong, but it may be cured when those who have it realize its bad effectson their interests and tastes.I hope this littlewarning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.Although in fact it is chieflyan act of the imagination, it has serious results in life since it brings ondeep sorrow and bad luck.Those people offend many others; nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the mostcommon politeness and re-spect.This frequently putsthem in bad temper and draws them into arguments.Ifthey aim at getting some advantages in social position or fortune, nobodywishes them success.Nor will anyone start a step orspeak a word to favor their hopes.If they bring onthemselves public objections, no one will defend or excuse them, and many willjoin to criticize their wrongdoings.These peopleshould change this bad habit and be pleased with what is pleas-ing, withoutworrying needlessly about themselves and others.Ifthey do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact (接触) withthem.Otherwise, it can bedisagreeable and sometimes very inconvenient, especially when one becomes mixedup in their quarrels.16.People who are unhappy __________.A.always consider things differently from othersually are affected by the results of certainthingsually misunderstand what others think or sayD.always discover the unpleasant side of certainthings答案：D17.The phrase "sour thepleasure of society" in Paragraph 2 most nearly means“__________”.A.have a good taste with social lifeB.make others unhappyC.tend to scold others openlyD.enjoy the pleasure of life答案：B18.We can conclude from the passagethat __________.A.we should pity all such unhappy peopleB.such unhappy people are dangerous to sociallifeC.people can get rid of the habit of unhappinessD.unhappy people can not understand happy persons答案：C19.If such unhappy persons insist onkeeping the habit, the author suggests that peo-ple should__________.A.prevent any communication with themB.show no respect and politeness to themC.persuade them to recognize the bad effectsD.quarrel with them until they realize themistakes答案：A20.In this passage, the writermainly __________.A.describes two types of peopleughs at the unhappy peopleC.suggests the unhappy people should get rid ofthe habits of unhappinessD.tells people how to be happy in life答案：C。

2017年10月专升本学士学位英语真题及答案解析2017 年10 月成人高等教育学士学位英语真题讲义一、阅读判断My Writing TeacherEnglish writing was always easy for me, but that changed on the first day I walked into Mrs. Johnson’s class. Before that, I’d heard rumors from former students. They said she was strict and her class was hard to pass. So I was very nervous.The first time we met, Mrs. Johnson told us her class would be difficult, but she would give us new “tools” and guide us through. She explained that her grading system was differ ent, and that we would not see high scores soon. “Everything you do in class matters,” she said. “As writing is an art, it takes a long time to perfect.” Mrs. Johnson scared me. I was afraid of what she would say if I asked a question.So in class I kep t silent most of the time and couldn’t follow her. When I got my first essay back, my grade was terrible. I was annoyed with Mrs. Johnson. I disliked going to her class.Then I realized I needed to find out what I could do to improve my grade and howt o use the “tools” in my writing. As I still didn’t dare to talk to Mrs. Johnson in person,I e-mailed her. In this way, she and I worked together to improve my writing. By and by, I could talk to her both online and in person. She walked me through every step to understand how to write an essay. Together we saw improvement in my work.From this I discovered that asking for help could actually work. Behindeverything Mrs. Johnson was saying, she actually cared about me and where I would be in the future. She knocked me down so that I could climb back stronger.1. I was worried when I was in Mrs. Johnson’s first class.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given2. Mrs. Johnson used the same grading system as other teachers.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given3. Mrs. Johnson regards writing as an art.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given4. I was active in class in the beginning.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given5. Most students enjoyed Mrs. Johnson’s class.A. TrueB. FalseC.

Mrs. Johnson let me improve my writing by myself.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given9. I finally became a top student in the writing class.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not Given10. Mrs. Johnson cared about my future.A. TrueB. FalseC. Not GivenABABCBCBCA二、阅读选择The KiltWhenever people from Scotland live in foreign countries, they are always asked:“Is Scotland that place where men wear skirts?” The short answer is yes, but there is more about the myths of Scottish “skirts.”The “skirt” that Scotsmen (苏格兰男子) sometimes wear is called a kilt. It is partof the traditional dress of Scotland. The kilt is clearly very famous across the world. It seems that everybody has heard of it, and that most people have seen a picture of a man wearing one.People’s knowledge and ideas about Scotsman wearing these funny kilts comefrom films and television. Every time people from othercountries ask about the kilt, they mention Mel Gibson’s film, Braveheart. In many countries, there are television programmes about Scotland. These programmes always include information or images of men in kilts.Of course, in Scotland, you will often see the kilt. The reality is, though, that youwill most commonly see it in tourist areas. The main streets and tourist areas of Scotland always have a Scotsman wearing a kilt and all tourist shops in the country sell kilts in different colours.But kilts are not something that Scottish people see every day. Kilts are for special occasions, such as weddings, funeral and other big and important events. Scotsmen do not put on their kilt just to buy a bottle of milk and a loaf of bread at the local supermarket.The reason for this may be that kilts are very expensive. When a man wears a kilt,he normally wears it with a special shirt, jacket, socks and shoes. This is obviously not cheap. In fact, an average kilt outfit(全套服装) costs around ￡500.11. According to the text, Scotsmen _____.A. like foreign cultureB. sometimes wear kiltsC. enjoy talking about kiltsD. often visit foreign countries12. Mel Gibson is probably a _____.A. painterB. musicianC. movie starD. fashion designer13. In Scotland, kilts are more often seen _____.A. in tourist shopsB. in public schoolsC. on the stageD. at local markets14. People do not wear kilts every day probably because of their _____.A. funny designsB. dull coloursC. poor quality23D. high prices15. This text is mainly about the _____.A. history of kiltsB. production of kiltsC. myths of kiltsD. styles of kiltsBCADC三、概括段落大意和补全句子A Fighting Lady(1) Deborah Sampson was born in 1760.

has been a remarkable shortening of the proportion of a woman 's life spent in caring for the children.A woman’marrying at the end of the nineteenth century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived tiU they were five years old.By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect.to live a further twenty years, during which custom, opportunity and health made it unusual for her to get paid work.Today women marry younger and have fewer ually a woman 's youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five years old and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty.Even while she has the care of children, her work is lightened by household appliances and convenience foods.This important change in woman 's life-pattern has only recendy begun to have its full effect on women’s economic position.Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity, and most of them took a full time job.However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it.Today the school leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger, more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first child is born.Very many more afterwards retum to full or part-time work.Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with the husband accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfactions of family life, aid with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money, and running the home, according to the abilities and interests of each of them.第21题 According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to_____ .A.stay at home after leaving schoolB.marry men younger than themselvesC.start work until retirement at 60D.marry while still at school答案: C第22题 We are told that in an average family about 1900_____ .A.many children died before they were five years oldB.seven or eight children lived to be more than five years oldC.the youngest child would be fifteen years oldD.four or five children died when they were five years old答案: D第23题 Many g！rls, the passage claims, are now likely to_____ .A.give up their jobs for good after they are marriedB.leave school as soon as they canC.marry so that they can get a jobD.continue working until they are going to have a baby答案: D第24题 One reason why the woman of today takes a job is that she_____ .A.is younger when her children are old enough to look after themselvesB.does not like children herselfC.need not worry about food for her childrenD.can retire from family responsibilities答案: A第25题 Nowadays, a husband tends to_____ .A.play a greater part in looking after the childrenB.help his wife by doing most of the houseworkC.feel dissatisfied with role in the familyD.take a part.time job so that he can help in the home答案: ALast December 's earthquakes in the Iranian city of Bam took a huge death toll —roughly 40, 000 people——largely because of the collapse of thousands of mud —brick buildings.If a group of researchers in India are successful, the next earthquake might not be as destructive.British and Indian engineers are developing earthquake—proof housing using a cheap, universal material: bamboo.Thev designed a model house built around waterproof bamboo-sheet roofing and bamboo-reinforced concrete walls.To test the structure, the engineers, sponsored by the U.K.Depart-ment of qnternational Development, took it to the Earthquake Engineering and Vibration Re-search Centre in Bangalore, which has astate.of-the-art earthquake simulator（模拟装置）. The researchers shook the house with five successive 30-second pulses, being equal to 7.8 on the Richter（里氏）scale.The simulation was more than 10 times as violent as the Bam earth-quake.yet the house emerged undamaged."We didn 't even crack the paint, ”says engineer Paul Follett.of Britain’s Timber Research and Development Association.By some estimates, more than a binion people already live in bamboo structures.The innovation lies in developing ways to exploit bamboo 'S spring.Easily pre-built, fire resistant, and far lighter than steel, bamboo.based structures could be assembled in three weeks and last 50 vears.At five dollars a square foot, they would last roughly half as much as brick-and-block constructions.Follett says the project will follow an"open source”model: "Whatever is developed is freely available for the common good.”第26题 Thousands of people died in the Bam earthquake mainly because_____ .A.the earthquake occurred in the cold DecemberB.many mud.brick houses collapsedC.the earthquake reached 7.8 0n the Richter scaleD.bamboo houses hadn 't been built yet答案: B第27题 The phrase"a universal material”（Line 5, Paragraph l）refers to a material that can be found_____ .A.everywhere in IndialB.in the universeC.in a universityD.in a unique place答案: A第28题 What was the result of the test?A.The shake lasted 1 50 seconds.B.The simulation was over 10 times as violent.C.The paint was cracked.D.The model remained undamaged.答案: D第29题 The researchers have been working hard toA.reduce the damage by earthquakesB.explore the functions of bambooC.build bamboo houses for a billion peopleD.design bamboo house models答案: D第30题 Which of the following are the advantages of bamboos in building houses?Ⅰ、Cheap to get.
