Part IV Reading Comprehension

Passage One

When companies need new employees, they usually place advertisements in newspapers in order to attract as many applicants as possible. But many large well-known companies hire new people frequently without putting advertisements in newspapers, because they already have many resumes on file. Therefore, it is not always best to apply only to companies that place ads in newspapers. A person looking for a job is advised to send his resume with a cover letter to a well-known company even if a position is not then open. He can follow up with a telephone call to inquire if his resume has been received and if any jobs are available. If the company has not a job at that time, he can ask that they keep his material on file and contact him in the future when something is available.

Sometimes if a company is not hiring at the time, a letter explaining that a position is not currently available will be sent. If a person sends a letter and resume to a company that is not then hiring and later sees an advertisement in the newspaper for a job with that company, he should call the company to make certain they have his material on file and will consider him for the position. So, a person has nothing to lose and everything to gain by sending in his resume.

1. What kind of companies are the best choice for a person to write to find a job? C

a. Companies that place ads in newspapers.

b. Small trading companies.

c. Larger, well-known companies.

d. The companies which are looking for new personnel now.

2. Which of the following is not true? A

a. A person looking for a job should only apply to companies that advertise in

newspapers.

b. Many larger, well-known companies hire new people frequently.

c. A person looking for a job is advised to send his resume with a cover letter to a

well-known company even if a position is not then open.

d. When companies decide to hire new people they usually place an ad in the

newspaper to attract as many people as possible.

3. When people are looking for jobs, what should send to companies, according to the passage? C

a. A resume and recent photos.

b. A cover letter and an application.

c. A resume and a cover letter.

d. Only a phone call.

4. If you send your resume to a company that isn’t hiring at the time, what might the company do? D

a. The company might call you and tell you that they have no positions now.

b. The company might hire you anyway.

c. The company will not write back because they are not interested in you.

d. The company might write back and tell you that there are no positions available

at the time.

5. According to the author, __B____.

a. it is a bad idea to send in one’s resume if one is not certain there is a job

available.

b. it is always a good idea to send in one’s resume whether or not one is certain

there is a job available.

c. it is not necessary to send in one’s resume if one knows that there is not a job

available.

d. it is always necessary to make an inquiry phone call first before one sends in his

resume.

Passage Two

We often use gestures to express our feelings, but the problem is that the gestures can be understood in different ways.

It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language. So does laughter or crying. Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world. In Chinese and in English literature, a phrase like “he went pale and began to tremble”suggests that the man is either very afraid or he has just got a very big shock. However, “he opened his eyes wide” is used to suggest anger in Chinese, whereas in English it means surprise. In Chinese, surprise can be described in phrase like “they stretched out their tongues!”“Stretching out our tongue”in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike.

Even in the same culture, people differ in their ability to understand and express feelings. Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing fear, anger, love and happiness on people’s faces. Other studies show that older people usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do.

6. Which of the following is true according to the passage? D

a. We can easily understand what people’s gestures mean.

b. Words can be better understood by older people.

c. Gestures can be understood by most people but words are not.

d. It is difficult to tell what people’s gestures really mean sometimes.

7. People’s facial expressions may be misunderstood in different cultures because __D____.

a. people of different sexes may understand a gesture differently

b. people speaking different languages have different facial expressions

c. people of different ages may have different interpretations

d. people from different cultures have different meanings about some facial

expressions.

8. From the passage, we can conclude that _A____.

a. gestures can be used to express feelings

b. gestures can be more effectively used than words to express feelings

c. words are often more difficult to understand than gestures

d. gestures are used as frequently as words to express feelings

9. In the same culture, people __D____.

a. hardly ever fail to understand each other’s ideas and feelings

b. are equally intelligent even if they have different backgrounds

c. almost all have the same understanding of the same thing

d. may have different abilities to understand and express feelings

10. The best title for this passage can be ___C___.

a. Gestures

b. Feelings

c. Gestures and Feelings

d. Culture and Understanding

Passage Three

Until the twentieth century cigarette smoking was not a widespread habit. The cigarette industry started in the 1870’s with the development of cigarette manufacturing machines. It helped produce great numbers of cigarettes very quickly and reduced the price greatly. And consequently more and more people, both men and women, began to smoke cigarettes. Men as a group, however, smoke more than women. But the highest proportion of smokers is found in the age group of 24-44, regardless of sex difference.

Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habits. City people smoke more than people living on farms. Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if a well-educated man with a higher income smokes at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.

The situation is somewhat different for woman. There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family incomes and higher education than among the lower income and lower education groups. These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.

Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenage smoker from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas. High school students who are preparing for college are less likely to smoke than those who do not plan to continue their education after high school. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.

11. When did cigarette smoking begin to become a widespread habit among men and

women according to the author? C

a. Before 1870’s

b. In the year of 1870

c. When cigarettes were made in large numbers

d. When women began to smoke cigarettes

12. Among which age group of people are you likely to find the highest proportion of

cigarette smokers according to the passage? B

a. Teenagers.

b. People in their thirties.

c. People over fifty.

d. Students under twenty.

13. Which of the following has little to do with a person’s smoking habit? D

a. How much money he earns.

b. What kind of job he does.

c. How much education he’s got.

d. How long he had worked.

14. Which of the following is true according to the passage? B

a. Well-paid men with good education are more likely to smoke.

b. Women with high family incomes and good education are more likely to smoke.

c. Generally speaking, well-educated women with higher incomes smoke very few

cigarettes.

d. Well-educated men usually smoke more packs of cigarettes than well-educated

women.

15. What does the author mean by saying “Among teenagers the picture is similar.” in

the last paragraph? C

a. Teenagers smoke as many cigarettes as adults.

b. There are as many teenager smokers as adult smokers.

c. Family income and education have much the same effect on forming smoking

habits among teenagers.

d. Teenager smokers have a picture that looks similar to that of adult smokers.

Passage Four

People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun.

The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countrie s. Italy’s 30,000 hotels are booked solid every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French Beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourist visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.

But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to d o with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.

None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’t g o there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’s still better t han sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.

16. The writer seems to imply that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that _D___.

a. they want to see historic remains o religious spots

b. they are interested in different cultural traditions and social customs

c. they would like to take pictures in front of famous sites

d. they wish to escape from the cold, dark and rainy days back at home

17. In Para. 2, cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam are mentioned __A___.

a. to show that they are not good cities in term of geography and climate

b. to tell us how wealthy their residents are

c. to suggest that these cities lack places of historic interest and scenic beauty

d. to prove that they have got more tourism than they can handle

18. According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists

than the others? B

a. Italy

b. Spain

c. France

d. Greece

19. The latter half of the last sentence in Para. 2, i.e., “or one tourist for every person

living in Spain” means __B___.

a. all the 37 millions people living in Spain are tourists

b. every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that

country

c. every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist

d. every Spanish is visited by a tourist every year

20.According to the passage, which of the following factors might spoil the tourist’s

fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches? D

a. Polluted water

b. Crowded buses

c. Traffic jams

d. Rainy weather

On money

As far as money is concerned, opinions vary widely. Some people take money as the source of happiness. They are of the opinion that with money they can have delicious food to eat, fashionable clothes to wear and a luxurious house to live in. Without money, they will inevitably be in distress.

Others, however, believe that money is the root of all evils. From their point of view, the pursuit of money drives many people to commit crimes. For instance, theft, robbing and corruption are all connected to money.

As I see it, we should not put the blame on money because money itself is a token or symbolic tool. It is innocent. What really counts is the attitude we take toward it. If you always put money in the first place in any of your act, then money can become troublesome, or even fatal. But when you are convinced that many more things in the world are more meaningful and important than making money, you will surely be happier and more open-minded.

作文:

Buy a House in the City or in the Suburbs

When we buy a house, we will be frequently faced with the choice between a

house in the city and the one in the suburbs. Before making the right choice, we had better make a close comparison and contrast of them.

Both these two types of house can offer us a new living condition and, perhaps, new living facilities. Despite their similarities, their differences are also obvious. First, it is cheaper to buy a house in suburbs while it is expensive to buy a one in the city. Besides, city offers a more convenient transportation service but people in the suburbs can live a quiet life. Moreover, it is easier for city dwellers to have access to better education, yet people in the suburbs can enjoy fresh air, the green trees and singing birds.

Therefore, it is hard to say which is better. If you have no trouble with money and like to enjoy the modern facilities of the city, you may buy a house in the city. But if you appreciate the benefits of quiet life and fresh air, you may buy a house in the suburbs.

一、阅读理解(共1道小题,共25.0分) 1. People are so busy these days that many have no time to cook. This is a problem because many families love home cooking! A family meal brings everyone together.

A parent who makes some cookies is not just satisfying a child's sweet tooth. She or he is sending a message. The message says, "I care about you enough to spend an hour making cookies that you will eat up in 15 minutes if I let you." There is also something about the smell of home cooking.

Passage One It has been reported that in colleges across the United States, the daytime serial drama known as the soap opera has suddenly become "in". Between the hours of 11 a.m. and 4:30 pm, college television lounges are filled with soap opera fans who can't wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters. Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they're a youth favorite. When school is out, high-school students are in front of their TV sets. One young working woman admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up watching her favorite serials. During the 1960's, it was uncommon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was very different from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importance. Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people want to be happy. It may seem strange that they should turn to soap opera, which is known for showing trouble in people's lives. But soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who, like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chance to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems. 6.What is soap opera? A:Plays based on science fiction stories. B:Plays based on non-fiction stories. C:The daytime serial dramas on TV. D:Popular documentary films on TV. 7.What can be the best title of the passage?

大学英语一题库阅读理解_试卷_答案

大学英语一阅读理解 一、阅读理解(共505题,共101分) 1. Few laws are so effective that you can see results just days after they take effect. But in the nine days since the federal cigarette tax more than doubled—to $1. 01 per pack—smokers have jammed telephone “quit lines” acro ss the country seeking to kick the habit. This is not a surprise to public health advocates. They’ve studied the effect of state tax increases for years, finding that smokers, especially teens, are price sensitive. Nor is it a shock to the industry, which fiercely fights every tax increase. The only wonder is that so many states insist on closing their ears to the message. Tobacco taxes improve public health, health, they raise money and most particularly, they deter people from taking up the habit as teens, which is when nearly all smokers are addicted. Yet the rate of taxation varies widely. In Manhattan, for instance, which has the highest tax in the nation, a pack of Marlboro Light Kings cost $10.06 at one drugstore Wednesday. Charleston, S, C., where the 7-cent-a-pack tax is the lowest in the nation. The price was $4. 78. The influence is obvious. In New York, high school smoking hit a new low in the latest surveys—13.8%, far below the national average. By comparison, 26% of high school students smoke in Kentucky, Other low-tax states have similarly depressing teen-smoking records. Hal Rogers, Representative from Kentucky, like those who are against high tobacco taxes, argues that the burden of the tax falls on low-income Americans “who choose to smoke.” That’s true, But there is more reason in keeping future generations of low-income workers from getting hooked in the first place, As for today’s adults, if the new tax drives them to quit, they will have more to spend on their families, cut their risk of cancer and heart disease and feel better. (1分) (1) The text is mainly about___________. (0.2分) A.the price of cigarettes B.the rate of teen smoking C.the effect of tobacco tax increase D.the differences in tobacco tax rate 标准答案:C (2) What does the author think is a surprise? (0.2分) A.Teen smokers are price sensitive. B.Some states still keep the tobacco tax low. C.Tobacco taxes improve public health. D.Tobacco industry fiercely fights the tax rise. 标准答案:B (3) The underlined word "deter” in Paragr aph 3 most probably means . (0.2分) A.discarding B.remove C.benefit D.free 标准答案:A (4) Rogers’ attitude towards the low-income smokers might be that of . (0.2分) A.tolerance B.unconcern C.doubt D.sympathy 标准答案:D (5) What can we learn from the last paragraph? (0.2分) A.The new tax will be beneficial in the long run.
