Many people think of Chamberlain as a giant. He is so tall that he has a special, extra-long bed to sleep in and a special car with enough space for his long legs. During his playing days, Wilt was paid about $200 000 a year. That was what the president of the United States earned for being president. At that time, it was more than any other athlete in the entire history of sports had ever been paid.Wilt played for the Los Angeles Lakers team. He helped to make it the best team in the Western Division of the National Basketball Association, which is a group of the very finest professional teams in the world. Wilt owns a beautiful apartment building in Los Angeles and another one in New York. He owns racehorses 赛马. He wears fine clothes. He owns an English Bentley car.When Wilt was just seven years old, he took a job. He did not tell his mother or father, but one day his mother found out. She looked out into the street and saw Wilt lifting crates for a milkman. Mrs. Chamberlain told the milkman that Wilt was only seven. She said he shouldn’t be lifting those heavy milk crates. “I thought he was twelve”, said the milkman.6. According to the passage, people called Wilt Chamberlain a giant.A. TB. F7. Wilt Chamberlain played for the Seattle Seahawks.A. TB. F8. The president of the United States earned as much money doing his job each year as Wilt earned playing basketball.A. TB. F9. Wilt Chamberlain could be such a famous basketball player only because he played for the finest professional team.A. TB. F10. According to the passage, the word “honesty”best describes Wilt’s desire to work when he was seven.A. TB. FPassage 2There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range andlong-term goals.Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation. Long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static 静止的 thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.11. Our long-term goals mean a lot .A. if we cannot reach solid short-term goalsB. if we complete the short-term goalsC. if we have dreams of the futureD. if we put forward some plans12. New short-term goals are built upon .A. a daily basisB. your achievement in a weekC. current activitiesD. the goals that have been completed13. When we complete each step of our goals, .A. we will win final successB. we are overwhelmedC. we should build up confidence of successD. we should have strong desire for setting new goals14. What is the main idea of this passageA. Life is a dynamic thing.B. We should set up long-term goals.C. Different kinds of goals in life.D. The limitation of long-term goals.15. Which of the following statements is wrong according to the passageA. The long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals.B. The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals.C. Life is a static thing, thus we should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.第三部分:词汇与结构共5小题,每小题2分,满分10分此部分共有5个未完成的句子,针对每个句子中未完成的部分有4个选项,请从A, B, C, D四个选项中选出正确选项;16.

大学英语三级B级分类模拟题阅读理解(二)单项选择题Task 1Charlie Chaplin, the world-famous actor, was born in London in 1889. His father died when he was still a child. His mother's life was so hard that she finally went mad.Chaplin left England for America in 1913. At that time he was only a poor music-hall artist. His future was uncertain, but he was sure it could be better than his past. Not long after he came to America he was working first as a comedian and then as a film director. In 1918 he founded his own studios in Hollywood and began to make his own films. As an independent producer, he planned and put on more than a dozen screen comedies (funny plays) , in which he also played the leading parts.When he was on a visit to Britain, the American government refused to give him a reentry, for he was considered too left-winged. So in 1948 he decided to make his home in Switzerland.It was not until 1972 that Chaplin was invited to receive an apology and the reward of an Oscar. He was given a hero's welcome and deeply moved by it. Then in 1975, the 86-yearold Chaplin returned to London.1、 Chaplin left England for America in 1913 because ______A. he wanted to snake his own films in Holly woodB. he hoped that he could have a better future in the U.S.C. he felt very sad after his father's deathD. bothA. andB.2、 When Chaplin left England he was ______A. a famous stage actorB. a film actorC. a poor young actorD. a painter3、 Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A. He acted in the comedies he planned.B. He directed some famous film comedies.C. He opened his own studios in Hollywood.D. He made a great fortune out of his films.4、 Chaplin was invited back to America in 1972 to ______A. receive an apology and the reward of an OscarB. take the leading part in an important filmC. receive a hero' s welcomeD. give lectures to the American actors5、 Which of the following is the right order of his career?a. He was born in London in 1889.b. He returned to Britain.c. He left England for America.d. He decided to live in Switzerland.e. He received the reward of Oscar.f. He founded his own studios in Hollywood.A. a,c,e,f,d,bB. a,f,c,d,e,bC. a,c,b,f,d,eD. a,c,f,d,e,bTask 2Many of the world's population problems have been caused by the crowding of large groups of people into the cities. Supply for the needs of the people leads to further pollution by industry. If rapid increase of world population in countries continues at the present rate, there may be much greater harm to human beings. Some scientists speak of the increase in numbers of people as "population pollution".About 2000 years ago, the world population was probably about 250 million; it reached a billion in 1850. By 1930 the population was two billion. It is now three and a half billion. It is expected to double by the year 2005. If the population continues to grow at the same rate, there will be 25 billion people in the world a hundred years from now!Man has been using the earth's resources more and more rapidly over the past years. Some of them are ah-nost used tip. Now many people believe that man's greatest problem is how to control the growth of the population. The material supplies in the world will be far from enough to support the human population in time to come, if the present rate of increase continues. Already there is over-crowding in many cities and hunger in some countries. Should man's population keep on growing so rapidly as before? Many people believe that human survival in the future depends on the answer to this question.6、 The rapid increase in population is considered to be______A. poorer in natural resourcesB. population pollutionC. the development of mankindD. the present rate7、 The world population will be ______. by the year 2005.A. 7 billionB. 250 millionC. 25 billionD. 3.5 billion8、 If the present rate of increase continues,______A. the world is going to its endB. our planet won't be able to support the growing population in the futureC. pollution will becausedD. the population will increase by 18 billion in one hundred years9、 According to the passage, man's greatest problem is how to control______A. pollutionB. traffic jamC. growth of populationD. global warming10、 Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. In 1850 the world population reached a billion.B. Man must fight a battle against population pollution.C. The world population is increasing with years.D. Many of the earth's resources are gone now.Task 3The Chang, jiang River is not the longest, the widest, or the most powerful river in the world. But in one sense it is the most important river, because it serves more people than any other river. In every way the Changjiang River is China's life stream.The Changjiang isn't just a trade river, a high way along which goods are picked up and sent. It is an agricultural river as well. A lot of irrigation ditches go out from it to millions of tiny garden-size farms. There men and women work endlessly with very old hand tools -planting, watering, fertilizing, weeding, harvesting, raising the family's food and raising the nation's food. It begins somewhere high in the place north of Tibet, running down from a three-mile height, tt goes for hundreds of miles, shouting loud through valleys. Only in the last 1,000 miles of its 3,900-mile journey does the Changjiang River become the sunny and cheerful river.11、 The Changjiang River is ______A. mainly a trade riverB. not only a trade river but also an agricultural riverC. a very famous river mainly because it runs hundreds of milesD. not the longest river in the world, but it is the widest one12、 Where is the Changjiang River's starting spot? It may be ______A. somewhere in the central part of ChinaB. somewhere on the borders of China and IndiaC. somewhere in the place north to ChinaD. somewhere in the place north of Tibet13、 How long is the Changjiang River?A. Three thousand and nine hundred miles.B. One thousand miles.C. Hundreds of miles.D. Four thousand and two hundred miles.14、 The upper part of the Changjiang River______A. flows through wide plainsB. rushes down from high mountainsC. is good for sailingD. is more valuable to China than the lower part15、 From this article we have learned that______A. the Changjiang River fills the Chinese people with strengthB. millions of tiny garden-size farms along the river are often floodedC. one-third of the Changjiang River is rather too wildD. many people will starve without the food produced in the Changjiang basinTask 4Some people seem to have a knack for learning languages. They can pick up new vocabulary, master rules or grammar, and learn to write in the new language more quicldy than others. They do not seem to be any more intelligent than others, so what makes language learning so much easier for them? Perhaps if we take a close look at these successful language learners we may discover a few of the techniques which make language learning easier for them.First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own wa ys to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. They are good guessers who look for clues and form their own conclusions. When they guess wrong, they guess again. They try to learn from their mistakes.Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find the people who speak the language and they ask these peo ple to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate; they are not afraid to repeat what they hear or to say strange things; they are willing to make mistakes and accept information that is inexact or incomplete. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word.Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. They find it easy to practice using the language regularly because they want to learn with it.16、 What does the word "knack" in the first paragraph mean?A. Difficulty.B. A special skill or ability.C. Method.D. Trick.17、 According to this text, what makes language learning easier for some people than others?A. Some people learn grammar more quickly than others.B. Successful language learners use special techniques.C. Successful language learners are more intelligent than others.D. Some people have good teachers and good books.18、 How do successful language learners learn language?A. They learn to think about the meaning of every new word.B. They learn the rules and patterns of the language from books.C. They learn special techniques from their teachers.D. They learn independently, actively, and purposefully.19、 Why do successful language learners iliad it easy to practice using the language regularly?A. They find it easy to communicate.B. They look for inexact information.C. They want to teach the language to others.D. They want to learn from people who speak the language.20、 Why did the author write the text?A. To teach people to speak English.B. To explain why language learning is difficult.C. To compare language learning with other types of learning.D. To encourage language learners to use these techniques.Task 5In an experiment designed to study the effect of majority opinion, small groups of subjects (实验对象) observed a standard straight line, and then judged which of three other lines equaled its length. One of the other lines was longer, one shorter, one equal to the standard; the differences were great enough that they could be told easily. All but one member of each group had been instructed to agree upon a wrong answer for a majority of the trials. The experimental subject was thus put against a majority, and the subject's problem was whether to disagree with the majority, or to doubt his or her own judgment and agree. Many subjects refused to change and continued to hold to their independent ideas. But a rather large number of them yielded under pressure from other's apparent judgments. The amount of yielding depended on the clarity of conditions (lack of clariw led to their following majority opinion) , individual differences, and the size of the opposition. With the opposition of only one other person, there was very little yielding; with two against one the amount of yielding became pronounced (显著的) ; and a majority of three was nearly as effective as larger majorities against the only one who disagreed.21、 What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The accuracy of threshold judgment.B. The inability of groups to estimate correct line length.C. The impact of majority opinion on the judgment of an individual.D. The necessity of clear conditions in conducting successful experiments.22、 A total of how many lines were shown to each group of subjects?A. Two.B. Three.C. FourD. Five.23、 Why did all but one of the members of each group choose the wrong line?A. They could not accurately judge which lines were equal in length.B. They were told to do so for the purpose of the study.C. They wanted to punish the person who disagreed.D. They did not understand the instruction.24、 It can be inferred from the passage that the main purpose of the experiment was to examine the tendency that many people have to ______A. competeB. follow other people's opinionC. criticizeD. communicate25、 The experiment described in the passage was most likely carried out by______A. physicistsB. mathematiciansC. chemistsD. psychologists 答案:单项选择题1、B事实细节题。

大学英语三级B级分类模拟题专项技能提高篇(二)The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a waste product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better.Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals . They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully. There is a saying that it is so noisy that you can' t hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems . Noise adds moretension (紧张)to a society that already faces enough stress. But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, people complained so much about noise that government stoppedchariots (四轮马车)from moving through the streets at night!Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controllingnoise . We cannot return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise—if we shout loudly enough about it.1> Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?A.Because the world is becoming more and more noisy,B.Because they have learned that noise is also a kind of pollution.C.Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.D.Because people knew little about noise before.2、What may happen if we cannot hear ourselves think?A.We may forget what we have thought about.B.Our thoughts may be disturbed.C.Our mind may be harmed.D.We may have difficulty finding the right words.3、When the writer says we cannot return to the "good old days", he meansthat _______ .A.our society is becoming much worse than beforeB.in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet lifeC.the old days were much happier than the present timeD.it is impossible for us to deal with noise as we did before4、From the last sentence of the passage we can learn that .A.we can put noise under control if we take effective measuresB.sometimes we have to shout loudly so that others can hear usC.shouting is the chief cause of noise pollution nowadaysD. it is important to warn people of the danger of noise pollution5、Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A.Only recently did people realize the harmful effect of noise.B. Noise pollution is the worst kind of pollution we suffer from.C. People are now trying to find ways to make noise as low as possible.D.The writer thinks that it is almost impossible for people to avoid noise.Cars are an important part of life in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn' t feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn' t know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons why the car becomes so popular in the United States. First of all, the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go anyplace without spending a lot of money.The second reason why cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long- distance trains have never been as common in the country13、14、B. be satisfactory D. grow annoyedas they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes . But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don't like to wait for a bus, or a train or even a plane. They don' t like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans . But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.6、Most Americans feel they are poor when they .A.have no moneyB. have no carC. have no foodD. have no j ob7、Henry Ford was the first to cars in large numbers.A.sellB. haveC. produceD. invent8、"A nation on wheels" means that .A.the country is producing the best cars in the worldB.everyone in this country owns a carC. cars play a very important role in people's livesD. there are more cars than trains in this country9、Americans don't use planes often because .A.it is too expensiveB. there aren't manyC. the system is badD. it isn't safe10、The real solution to the gas shortage problem is .A.to make less carsB.to develop a public transportation systemC.to make gas-saving carsD.to develop train serviceEverything seems to be going up these days. Prices are going up, and that makes the cost of living go up. Those people whose wages and salaries go up are fortunate. They can manage, perhaps z to keep up with the rising costs. Populations are going up, too. And if the world becomes over crowded, there may be more wars. Then, when the atomic bomb drops, everything will go up in smoke and dust, and it will be all up with civilization.We must not give up hope, however. Let us cheer up, and not look only on the dark side. Even though troubles pile up, good fortune will turn up occasionally. Servants may leave so that we have to wash up after our meals, but we may still, when the work is done, be able to put our feet up for a few minutes . We may, when we go out in the car, find the roads up, or so bad that our tires go flat and have to be pumped up. Yet, when we get home, we may perhaps enjoy, if we sit up late, a wonderful broadcast of an opera from Milan or Rome. Things are getting better and better sometimes.Life is full of ups and downs . We may feel depressed and fed up now, but good luck will turn up again soon. So, once again, cheer up.11> When prices are increasing, .A.most people are not affected by the rising costsB.all the people can't live a better lifeC.people can cope with their life only with their wages and salaries raisedD.those people who get little pay live an easy life12、If the war broke out, there would be .A.more populationsB. no civilizationC. smoke and dust in the worldD. more atomic bombsThe phrase in the third paragraph "cheer up" can be paraphrased asA.become happier C. turn sadThe main idea of Paragraph 2 is .A.when we are in trouble we will never keep up hopeB.even if we are in trouble, we are still hopefulC.things are becoming better and betterD.when the servants leave, you have to do everything by yourselfWhat is the author's attitude toward life?Critical. Neutral. Passive. 19、 lanes.lanes . 20、 The best title for this passage is A. B. C. D. Traffic Crowding Air Pollution Special Lanes A Solution to in New York Cityin New York City by Cars forPassengersTraffic Problem in New York Some people think they have an answer to the troubles of automobile crowding and dirty air in large cities. Their answer is the bicycle, or "bike".In a great many cities, hundreds of people ride bicycles to work every day. In New York City, some bike riders have even formed a group called Bike for a Better City. They claim that if more people rode bicycles to work there would be fewer automobiles in the downtown section of the city and therefore less dirty air from car engines.For several years this group has been trying to get the city government to help bike riders. For example, they want the city to draw bicycle lanes on some of the main streets, because when bike riders must use the same lanes as cars, there are accidents . Bike for a Better City feels that if there were special lanes more people would use bikes.But no bicycle lanes have been drawn. Not everyone thinks it is a good idea —they say it will slow traffic. Some store owners on the main streets say that if there is less traffic, they will have less business. And most people live too far from downtown to travel by bike.The city government has not yet decided what to do. It wants to keep everyone happy. Only on weekends z Central Park is closed to cars, and the roads may be used by bicycles only, but Bike for a Better City says that this is not enough and keeps fighting to get bicycle lanes downtown.16、 According to the passage, bicycles .A. are more convenient than carsB. are safer traffic tools than carsC. are ridden by most people in the U. S.D. are the solution to some city problems 17> The idea of special bicycle lanes is more favored by .A. the city governmentB. some bike ridersC. people living far from downtownD. some store owners18、 "Bicycle lanes" in the third paragraph probably means .A. narrow passages between buildings for bicyclesB. roads full of bicyclesC. special parts of the road for bicycle riders onlyD. roads for bicycles onlyWhich of the following is not true according to the passage?

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question 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 1There are stories about two U.S. presidents, Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren, which attempt to explain the American English term OK. We don’t know if either story is true, but they are both interesting.The first explanation is based on the fact that President Jackson had very little education. In fact, he had difficulty reading and writing. When important papers came to Jackson, he tried to read them and then had his assistants explain what they said. If he approved of a paper, he would write “all correct” on it. The problem was that he didn’t know ho w spell, so what he really wrote was “ol korekt”. After a while, he shortened that ter m to “OK”.The second explanation is based on the place where President Van Buren was born, Kinderhook, New York. Van Buren’s friends organized a club to help him bec ome President. They called the club the Old Kinderhook Club, and anyone who supported Van Buren was called “OK”.11. The author_______________.A. believes both of the storiesB. doesn’t believe a word of the storiesC. is not sure whether the stories are trueD. is telling the stories just for fun12. According to the passage, President Jackson________________.A. coul dn’t draw up any documents at allB. didn’t like to read important papers by himselfC. often had his assistants sign documents for himD. wasn’t good at reading or spelling13. According to the first story, the term “OK”________________.A. was approved of by President JacksonB. was the title of some official documentsC. was first used by President JacksonD. was an old way to spell “all correct”14. According to the second story, the term “OK”______________.A. was the short way to sa y “Old Kinderhook Club”B. meant the place where President Van Buren was bornC. was the name of Van Buren’s clubD. was used to call Van Buren’s supporters in the election15. According to the second story, the term “OK” was first used____________.A. by Van BurenB. in a presidential electionC. to organize the Old Kinderhook ClubD. by the members of the “Old Kinderhook Club”Passage 2Although the United States covers so much land and the land produces far more food than the present population needs, its people are by now almost entirely an urban society. Less than a tenth of the people are engaged in agriculture and forestry(林业), and most of the rest live in or around towns, small and large. Here the traditional picture is changing: every small town may still be very like other small towns, and the typical small town may represent a widely accepted view of the country, but most Americans do not live in small towns any more. Half the population now lives in some thirty metropolitan areas (large cities with their suburbs) of more than a million people each —a larger proportion than in Germany or England, let alone France. The statistics (统计) of urban and rural population should be treated with caution because so many people who live in areas classified as rural travel by car to work in a nearby town each day. As the rush to live outof town continues, rural areas within reach of towns are gradually filled with houses, so that it is hard to say at what moment a piece of country becomes a suburb. But more and more the typical American lives in a metropolitan rather than a small town environment.16. If now America has 250 million people, how many of them are engaged inagriculture and forestry ____________A. About 25 million.B. More than 25 million.C. Less than 25 million.D. Less than 225 million.17. Which of the following four countries has the smallest proportion of peopleliving in metropolitan areas _____________A. United States.B. Germany.C. France.D. England.18. What’s the meaning of the word “metropolitan” in the middle of thepassage _________A. Of a large city with its suburbs.B. Of small and large towns.C. Of urban areas.D. Of rural areas.19. According to the passage, what can we learn about small towns in the UnitedStates _________A. Most small towns become gradually crowded.B. Small towns are still similar to each other.C. As the traditional picture is changing, towns are different.D. Small towns are turning into large cities.20. Why is it hard to say when a piece of country becomes a suburb __________A. Because they are the same.B. Because the rush takes place too quickly.C. Because the process is gradual.D. Because more and more Americans live in metropolitan areas.Passage 3If we were asked exactly what we were doing a year ago, we should probably have to say that we could not remember. But if we had kept a book and had written in it an account of what we did each day, we should be able to give an answer to the question.It is the same in history. Many things have been forgotten because we do not have any written account of them. Sometimes men did keep a record of the most important happenings in their country, but often it was destroyed by fire or in a war. Sometimes there was never any written record at all because the people of that time and place did not know how to write. For example, we know a good deal about the people who lived in China 4,000 years ago, because they could write and leave written records for those who lived after them. But we know almost nothingabout the people who lived even 200 years ago in central Africa, because they had not learned to write.Sometimes, of course, even if the people cannot write, thy may know something of the past. They have heard about it from older people, and often songs and dances and stories have been made about the most important happenings, and these have been sung and acted and told for many generations. For most people are proud to tell what their fathers did in the past. This we may call’ remembered history’. Some of it has mow been written down. It is not so exact or so valuable to us as written history is, because words are much more easily changed when used again and again in speech than when copied in writing. But where there are no written records, such spoken stories are often very helpful.21. Which of the following ideas is not suggested in the passage ______A. “Remembered history”, compared with written history, is less reliable.B. Written records of the past play the most important role in our learningof the human history.C. A written account of our daily activities helps us to be able to answermany questions.D. Where there are no written records, there is no history.22. We know very little about the central Africa 200 years ago because _______ .A. there was nothing worth being written down at that timeB. the people there ignored the importance of keeping a recordC. the written records were perhaps destroyed by a fireD. the people there did not know how to write23. “Remembered history” refers to ___________ .A. history based on a person’s imaginationB. stories of important happenings passed down from mouth to mouthC. songs and dances about the most important eventsD. both B and C24. “Remembered history” is regarded as valuable only when __________ .A. it is written downB. no written account is availableC. it proves to be trueD. people are interested in it25. The passage suggests that we could have learned much more about our pastthan we do now if the ancient people had ___________ .A. kept a written record of every past eventB. not burnt their written records in warsC. told exact stories of the most important happeningsE.made more songs and dancesPassage 4‘Mum, can we go to McDonald’s, please?’ Some people might ask, ‘Where would we be today if we did not have fast food?’ and ‘Where would parents take their c hildren out to eat?’It has been reported that approximately 30% of meals consumed by families in the USA are eaten at one of the big chains like Burger King and Taco Bell, though probably none is more famous than McDonald’s. The distinctive ‘golden arch’can now be seen in most major cities in the world. In 2002, McDonald’s had approximately 25,000 restaurants in over 120 countries and served 29 million people a day.Apparently, the secret of their success is a marketing strategy of ‘think global, act lo cal’.McDonald’s learnt that if they adapted their ‘Mac’ meals to different cultures, it was more successful than having a standardised set of products that taste the same everywhere. So now, around 80% of McDonald’s restaurants are franchised to local peo ple who serve food with a ‘local’ flavour. For example, in Hong Kong, food called ‘Shake Shake Fries’ and ‘Red Bean Sunday’ can be found on the menu, while in Switzerland, ‘Vegi Macs’ are served.However, fast food is not popular with everyone. It is ofte n called ‘junk’ food because it is said to be unhealthy and full of fat. Furthermore, many people claim that fast food chains produce enormous amounts of waste, while millions of people in developing countries go hungry. At the same time, more and more people no longer cook fresh food at home. ‘Convenience’ food is just too convenient! It is so easy for people with busy working lives to call into their local branch of Marks and Spencer, or some other supermarket chain, to buy ready-made meals on their way h ome from work. It is even easier to buy a ‘take-away’ from a local restaurant or pick up the phone and order a pizza to be delivered to your home.26. T he ‘golden arch’ in the second paragraph refers to ______________.A) Burger King B) Taco Bell C) McDonald’s D) all the fast food restaurants27. According to the passage, McDonald’s is successful mainly because __________________.A)It has a standardized set of products all over the worldB)It is not ‘junk’ foodC)Its’ food is convenientD)It adapted its meals to different cultures.28. In the passage, which of the following terms has/ have the same meaning with fast food.A) ‘junk’ food B) ‘convenience’ food C) ‘take-away’ D)all of the above29. Fast food is often called ‘junk food’ because _____________.A)some people think it is unhealthy and full of fatB)fast food chains produce enormous amounts of wasteC)it is no longer fresh foodD) Both A and B.30. The main idea of this passage is ____________.A)fast food todayB)the successful s ecret of McDonald’s.C)why fast food is thought as ‘junk’ foodD)different opinions toward fast foodPart Ⅲ Vocabulary and Structure(25 points)Section ADirections: In this section there are 15 incomplete sentences.

She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States. She spoke English very well. Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and fiends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales(称). Maria pulled and pulled. The bag was too heavy and she just couldn’t lift it up. The man behind her got very impatient. He, too, was waiting to check in his luggage.“What’s wrong with this girl?” He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in fist. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”The man was surprised to hear Maria speak English. He quickly picked up her luggage and stepped back.

Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals.

But the cultures of the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart.Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary(周年纪念)of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac’s body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder with a hug(拥抱), Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn’t stop 12 million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys(调查)show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France’s close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain’s close links with the US.Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of “doubtful friendship”, they are at least able to make jokes about each other. Here’s one: What’s the best thing about Britain’s relationship with France? The English Channel. (320 words)21.
