北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2011.11.05PartⅠReading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating（迁徙的）route , can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,” said urel, an architect.（76）“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.” About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat（栖息地）loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.（77）As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too, have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process.There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet（紫外线的）signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and net are the main options available.Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don’t necessarily have to treat every window,” urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.” The Jacob Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns.1.What is the main idea of the passage?A. New York is a city of glass towers.B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds.C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings.D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States.2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds?A. Climate changeB. Habitat lossC. Lack of foodD. Crashing into buildings.3. What does the word “fixes” in the third paragraph probably mean?A. ChoicesB. ExplanationsC. SolutionsD. Developments4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center.A. Dot patternsB. ShadesC. NetsD. Covers5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes.B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes.C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year.D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages.Passage 2Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage:Today’s students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations（革新）are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital（数字的），they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship（企业家才能）education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation, which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses, noted that more than 50,000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two-and four-year campuses—up from just 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell , a Kauffman vice president, says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence, which used to be found only in business schools. Now, the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical school, and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is the programs,” she says. “We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own, students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas, writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and, often, market. In their spare time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses for bean; industrial design majors at Syracuse, in special laboratory, create wearable technologies.（78）The entrepreneurship movement has its critics, especially among those who see college as a time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don’t think that entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national need,” says Daniel S.Greenberg, author of Science for sale: The perils, Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A.Schlesinger, Babson College’s president, says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is “an age-old argument”6. When Google and Facebook were established, the founders were still_____.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage, what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education?A. To prepare students for future academic lifeB. To prepare students to find opportunities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare student to develop interpersonal skills.8. The word “prototype” in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean_____.A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S.Grennberg think of entrepreneurship education?A. Entrepreneurship, or at least certain elements of it, can be taught.B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really like and entrepreneurship isn’t all about business.C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.D. Colleges shouldn’t put too much emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.10. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.D. Kids in the information age.Passage 3Question 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Regret is as common an emotion as love or fear, and it can be nearly as powerful. So, in a new paper, two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical American regrets most. In telephone surveys, Neal Rose, a psychologist and professor of marketing at the School of Management at Northwestern Universtiy, and Mike Morrison, a doctoral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois, asked 370 Americans, aged 19 to 103,to talk about their most notable regret.Participants were asked what the regret was, when it happened, whether it was a result of something they did or didn’t do, and whether it was something that could still be fixed.The most commonly mentioned regret involved romance (浪漫的事)(18%)----lost loves or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second (16%),whit people still feeling badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently reported regrets involved career (13%) ,education (12%),money(10%) and parenting(9^%).Rose and Morrison’s study, which is to be published in social psychological and personality science, is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of the American public, including people of all ages and socio-economic and educational backgrounds. Previous studies on regret have focused largely on college students, who predictably tend to have education-focused regrets, like wishing they had studied harder or a different major. The new survey shows that in the larger population, a person’s major. The new survey shows that in the larger population, a person’s “life circumstances—accomplishments, shortcomings ,situation in life—inject considerable fuel into the fires of regret,”the authors write.(79)People with less education, for instance were more likely to report education regret. People with higher levels of education had the most career regrets. And those with no romantic partner tended to hold regrets regarding love. Broken down(分解、细分)by sex, more women(44%) than men (19%) had regrets about love and family----not surprising, since women “value social relationships more than men,”the authors write. In contrast ,men (34%) were more likely than women (27%) to mention work-related regrets, wishing they’d chosen a different career path, for instance ,or followed their passion.(80)Many participants also reported wishing they had worked less to spend more time with their children.There was an even split between regrets about inaction (not doing something) and action (dosomething you wish you didn’t) .But, like previous studies, the current research found that some regrets are more likely than others to persist over time: people tend to hang on longer to the regret of inaction; meanwhile, regrets of action tend to be more recent.11.In the second paragraph, the author shows ______.A. the researchers’ findingsB. the importance of familyC. the importance of moneyD. the importance of career12. According to the passage , college student participants mainly had regrets about their ______.A. family and childhoodB. study and majorC. career and jobD. romance and fear13.The word “notable” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A. commonB. capableC. wonderfulD. remarkable14. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The less education he or she has, the more regrets she or he would have.B. The more education he or she has, the less regrets she or he would have.C. More women than men had regrets about love and family.D. The regret of action seems to last longer than that of inaction.15. What is the main idea of this passage?A. How regret is understood by a typical American.B .Common regrets is more important than love and hate.C. Why regret is more important than love and hate.D. How regret has shaped Americans.PartⅡVocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2011.05Part I Reading Comprehension Directions: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer sheet.Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna (天线).But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer."What we showed is glucose(葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢) (a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna," said Dr.Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association.(76) The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields causedby wireless phone signals.Volkow said she was surprised that the weak electromagnetic radiation(电磁辐射) from cellphones could affect brain activity, but she said the findings do not shed any light on whether cellphones cause cancer."This study does not in any way indicate that.What the study does is to show the human brain is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation from cell phone exposures." Use of the devices has increased dramatically since they were introduced in the early 1980s, with about 5 billion cell phones now in use worldwide.Some studies have linked cell phone exposure to an increased risk of brain cancers, but a large study by the World Health Organization did not offer a clear answer to this.Volkow' s team studied 47 people who had their brain examined while a cell phone was turned on for 50 minutes and another while the phone was turned off.While there was no complete change in brain metabolism,they found a 7 percent increase in brain metabolism in the region closest to the cell phone antennawhen the phone was on.(77) Experts said the results were interesting, but urged that they be understood with great care." Although the biological significance, if any, of increased glucose metabolism from too much cell phone exposure is unknown, the results require further investigation," Henry Lai of theUniversity of Washington in the U.S.and Dr.Lennart Hardell of University Hospital in Sweden,wrote in an article in JAMA."Much has to be done to further investigate and understand these effects." They wrote.第1题 According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A.Cell phone use is dangerous.B.Cell phone use causes cancer.C.The human brain is an electromagnetic field.D.There are about 5 billion cell phone users in the world right now.答案：D第2题 Doctor Volkow was astonished because_______.A.her research has shed light on her understanding of cell phoneB.she found that cell phone exposure is harmful to human brainC.she found that using a cell phone for about 50 minutes could influence or change brain activityD.human brain is not responsive to electromagnetic radiation答案：C第3题 According to the passage, cell phones were launched_______.A.in the late 1970sB.between 1980 and 1985C.in the late 1980sD.in the early 1990s答案：B第4题 What does the word "that" stand for in the second paragraph?A.Brain activity.B.Her research findings.C.The fact that cell phone use may cause cancer.D.Her research progress.答案：C第5题 Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Harmful?B.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Useful?C.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Healthy?D.Cell Phone Radiation: Is It Weak?答案：AHuman beings have always had an ability to attend to several things at once.(78) Nor is electronic multitasking entirely new: We' ve been driving while listening to car radios since they be came popular in the 1930s.But there is no doubt that multitasking has reached a kind of warp speed in the era of Web-enabled computers, when it has become routine to conduct several IM (即时通讯) conversations, watch TV and use the computer all at once.But what' s the impact of this media consumption? And how are these multitasking devices changing how kids learn, reason and communicate with one another? Social scientists and educators are just beginning to deal with these questions, but the researchers already have some strong opinions.(79) Although multitasking kids may be better prepared in some ways for today' s fast-paced work places, many scientists are positively alarmed by the trend.Kids that are instant messaging while doing homework, playing games online and watching TV, aren' t going to do well in the long run.On the positive side, multitasking students tend to be extraordinarily good at finding and using information.And probably because modern childhood centers around visual (视觉的) rather thanprint media, they are especially skilled at analyzing visual data and images.Many educators and psychologists say parents need to actively ensure that their teenagers break free of uncontrollable engagement with screens and spend time in the physical company of humanbeings--a growing challenge not just because technology offers such a handy option but because so many kids lead highly scheduled lives that leave little time for old-fashioned socializing and family meals.Indeed, many teenagers and college students say overcommitted (任务过量的)schedules drives much of their multitasking.Just as important is for parents and educator to teach kids that it' s valuable, even essential, to occasionally slow down, unplugs and take time to enjoy life beyond the screen.第6题 What is the main idea of this passage?A.How is multitasking define(定义)in the information age?B.How do people see new technology and the social change it brings about?C.How does technology change modern family fife?D.What' s the impact of multitasking on young people?答案：D第7题 The expression "warp speed" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.A.low speedB.too much time aloneC.high speedD.steady speed答案：C第8题 According to some teenagers and college students, what causes their multitasking?A.Overcommitted schedules.B.Too much time alone.C.Inability to focus.D.Fear of being neglected.答案：A第9题 According to the passage, which of the following statement is TRUE?A.Humans have begun to engage in the multitasking behaviors since the information age.B.Multitasking is a critical skill that students are required to learn at school.C.Only parents can help their kids to get rid of the multitasking habits.D.multitasking may prepare students for the reality of today' s fast-paces work environment.答案：D第10题 What do educators and psychologist advise parents to do with their multitasking kids?A.To cut off home internet connection.B.To seek medical treatment.C.To encourage their kids to have some social life.D.To help their kids to set personal goals答案：CThe nuclear power emergency at a Japanese atomic power plant last March could lead to a major re-examination in European countries that are already building such plants or are considering a shift from fossil(化石) fuels to nuclear energy to fight climate change.With the terrible accident25 years ago in Chemobyl(切尔诺贝利) beginning to fade in European Memories, governments across Europe have grown more open to using more nuclear power.Enthusiasm for nuclear power is particularly strong in Eastern Europe, which wants to move away from dependence on Russian oil and natural gas, and on heavily polluting coal-fired power plants.Eastern governments have begun improving existing nuclear plants or are building or planning new ones.But as Japan struggled to deal with her nuclear crises, discussion about the good and the bad of nuclear power became heated.(80) In Germany, nuclear power has been a repeatedly argued and widely felt issue for decades.Up to 70 percent of Germans oppose nuclear power.Recently about 40,000 people turned out to form a human chain near a nuclear plant to protest government policies on nuclear power."The accident in Japan could lead to a major rethink in Europe," said Henrik Paulitz of the Inter-national Doctors for the Prevention of Nuclear War."Governments have not been quite open about the safety levels of the nuclear power plants."Chancellor(总理) Angela Merkel heads a center-right unity government that supports the use of nuclear power.Her government recently made a disputed decision to extend the life of the country's 17 nuclear power plants by an average of 12 years.She will now face more pressure to change that policy.She called an emergency meeting with her senior ministers."We know how safe our plants are and that we do not face a threat from such a serious earthquake or violent tidal wave," Mrs.Merkel said after the meeting."We will learn what we can from the events in Japan.第11题 According to the passage, which of the following about Europe is TRUE?A.It is dependent on Russia for gas and oil.B.It has put an end to fossil fuels.C.It had a major nuclear

And there, almost lost in the big chair, sat Wolfgang, who never had to be told to keep quiet when looking over Marianne’s shoulder. At that moment Wolfgang climbed on his father’s knees and begged to be allowed to play the pretty piece Marianne had now mastered. What a joke that was! Picking up his baby son, Leopold laughed and said, “ Look at your hands. You must wait, little man!” . There was no end of the fun during tea, and Marianne had to tell her mother about Wolfgang wanting to play a difficult piece. When the meal was finished, Marianne helped to clear away the dishes. Suddenly Leopold got up. “ Listen!” said he in a surprised voice. “ Listen! Marianne is playing the piece better than ever!”But Marianne was washing dishes in the kitchen. With wife following, Leopold walked quietly upstairs, the lamp in one hand, his music book in the other. He pushed the door open, and there was little Wolfgang playing in the darkness. “I love it” whispered by the child. It was the beginning of Mozart’s life of music.1．Wolfgang was quiet when his sister practiced the piano because______.A．he loved musicB．he liked his sisterC．he didn’t want to make a noiseD．he didn’t feel well正确答案：A解析：此题为推断题。

They are expensive for not only consumers but also the environment; the need of the hour is therefore to come up with eco-friendly bags.Environment friendly bags are the latest and most fashionable to bit the market. Environment friendly people want to be associated and seen with natural fiber bags. Multicolored patch work bags and printed bags are everyone’s favorite. Most eco-friendly bags are made of cotton.

The phrase “to come up with” (Paragraph 1) means “________”.A. to replaceB. to purchaseC. to produceD. to ban17.

Kariwala is probably ________.A. a new material for making bagsB. a manufacturer of bagsC. the name of a bag store.D. an advertising agency19. By “revolution” (Paragraph 5), the author probably refers to the _______.A. great reduction of white pollutionB. a brand new style of bag designC. a new way to promote cotton bagsD. widespread use of eco-friendly bags20. The primary purpose of the author is to .A. promote Kariwala cotton bagsB. advocate the advantages of cotton bagsC. highlight the importance of bag designsD. persuade people to follow the fashionPassage TwoA review of more than 160 studies of human subjects has found “clear and compelling evidence” that---all else being equal ---happy people tend to live longer and experience better health than their unhappy peers.The study is the most comprehensive review so far of the evidence linking happiness to health. Its lead author ED Diener analyzed long-term studies of human subjects, experimental human trials, and studies that evaluate the health status of people stressed by natural events.“We reviewed eight different types of studies,”Diener said. “And the general conclusion from each type of study is that your subjective well-being---that is, feeling positive about your life, not stressed out, not depressed---contributes to both long life and better health among healthy populations.”A study that followed nearly 5,000 university students for more than 40 years, for example, found that those who were most pessimistic as students tended to die younger than their peers. An even longer-term study that followed 180 Catholic nuns from early adulthood to old age found that those who wrote positive accounts of their lives in their early 20s tended to live longer than those who wrote more negative ones.There were a few exceptions, but most of long-term studies the researchers reviewed found that anxiety, depression, a lack of enjoyment of daily activities and pessimism are all associated with higher rates of disease and a shorter life.While happiness might not by itself prevent or cure disease, posive emotions and enjoyment of life do contribute to better health and a longer life, Diener said.“Happiness is no magic bullet,”he said. “But the evidence is clear and compelling that it changes your chances of getting disease or dying young.”21. The word “compelling” (Paragraph 1) means “_______”.A. directB. convincingC. adequateD. conclusive22. According to Paragraph 2, Ed Diener .A. studied the health conditions of the subjectsB. conducted experimental human trialsC. made long-term studies of human subjectsD. review other researchers’studies23. According to the studies on university students and Catholic nuns, who are morelikely to live longer?A. Well-educated people.B. Optimistic people.C. Open-minded people.D. Religious people.24. What is NOT mentioned as relevant to a shorter life?A. Depression and anxiety.B. Lack of enjoyment.C. Constant lack of sleep.D. Stress and pessimism.25. By saying that “Happiness is no magic bullet” (Paragraph 7), Diener means thathappiness .A. is not ever lastingB. is not easy to obtainC. is not a good treatment of diseasesD. is not a guarantee of health and long lifePassage ThreeCold weather has a great effect on how our minds and our bodies work. Maybe that is why there are so many expressions that use the word “cold”. For centuries the body’s blood has been linked closely with emotions. People who show no human emotions or feelings, for example, are said to be cold blooded.Cold-blooded people act in cruel ways. They may do brutal things to others and not by accident. For example, a newspaper says the police are searching for a cold-blooded killer. The killer murdered someone not in self-defense or because hewas reacting to anger or fear. He seemed to kill for no reason and with no emotion as if taking someone’s life meant nothing.Cold can affect other parts of the body, the feet, for example. Heavy socks can warm your feet if your feet are really cold. But there is an expression “to get cold feet” that has nothing to do with cold or your feet. The expression means being afraid to do something you have decided to do. For example, you agreed to be president of an organization, but then you learned that all the other officers have resigned. All the work of the organization will be your responsibility. You are likely to get cold feet about being president when you understand the situation.A cold fish is not a fish. It is a person. But it is a person who is unfriendly, unemotional and shows no love or warmth. A cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone else. Someone who is a cold fish does not offer much of himself to anyone else. Someone who is a cold fish could be cold hearted. Now a cold-hearted person is someone who has no sympathy. Several popular songs in recent years were about cold-hearted men or cold-hearted women who without feeling broke the hearts of their lovers.“Out in the cold”means not getting something that everybody else has got. A person might say that everybody but him got a pay raise that he was left out in the cold and it is not a pleasant place to be in.26. The focus of the passage is .A. the meanings of expressions with “cold”B. the influence of cold weather on our mind and bodyC. why people are unhappy with cold weatherD. how some people become cold blooded27. A cold-blooded killer may take the life of another person .A. by accidentB. for no reasonC. out of fearD. in self-defense28. If a person “gets cold feet”, he or she may feel a little .A. angryB. puzzledC. disappointedD. frightened29. A cold fish is a person who _______.A. is indifferent to others’ sufferingsB. tends to turn down others’ helpC. remains cool in emergencyD. prefers to stay all alone30. Which of the following expressions may mean “unlucky”?A. Cold face.B. Cold feet.C. Cold heart.D. Out in the cold.Passage FourThe New York Times has reported on a problem that many of us have but are not aware of—Internet addiction. According to reporter Tara Parker-Pope, millions of usare addicted to being online. She says this is a growing problem that is making us more forgetful and impatient. Ms Parker-Pope writes about various reports highlighting how technology is changing people. In one, she quotes cyber-psychologist Dr. Elias Aboujaode who says: “More and more, life is resembling the chat room.”He said we are living in “virtual lifestyles”, which is negatively affecting our real-life relationships. Nicki Dowling, a clinical psychologist from Melbourne University in Australia, concluded in a recent study that ten per cent of young people had what she called “Internet dependence”.Tara Parker-Pope quizzed experts in this field on what the signs of being overly absorbed in technology are. She came up with seven signs of “tech overload”. The first is whether you check your e-mail before doing other things. Another sign is if you always look forward to your next online visit — a sure sign of dependence and addiction. The third point is if you say, “just a few more minutes” when someone wants you. Parker-Pope found one’s communication with others also says a lot about how important the Internet is compared with family and friends; do you lie about how much time you spend online or choose to surf the Internet instead of going out with others? Other indicators include the “online lift”that stops you being unhappy, and others’ complaints about you always being online.31. Which of the following can be the title of this passage?A.
