Giv e facts to support your conclusion.Yes, he's.He’s economically he is poor.He lives in a small basement apartment.He doesn't even have a color TV.He falls into the lowest income category And so on.6.Does the writer feel poor?

The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind?Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D. The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety,and don’t eat the basic foods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put toomuch of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.What foods supply what vitamins? Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certain fruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.1) Our body needs ______ for life and health.A) small amounts of each vitamin B) extra vitaminsC) all vitamins except vitamin D D) large amounts of certain vitamins2) Vitamin A is needed by____ and can be found in ______.A) bones, pork B) nervous system, milkC) eyes, green vegetables D) teeth, meats3) Vitamin B1 is very important to ______.A) the digestive system B) bones C) liver D) skin4) What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need?A) They will do great harm to our body.B) We get all the vitamins needed.C) Our body will function more properly.D) Our body simply gets rid of them.5) The passage has probably been taken from ______.A) a sports magazine B) a journal of medical scienceC) an aged magazine D) a youth journalACADB第八单元1) It is best if divorced parents can _________ friendly relations for the sake of the children.A) stay B) reserve C) maintain D) preserve2) Jim was in _________.

英语2考前辅导整理人:兰-08秋教管一、选词填空1、While I was waiting to enter university, I saw advertised in a local newspaper a teaching post at a school in a suburb of London about ten miles from where I lived. Being very short of money and wanting to do something useful, I applied, fearing as I did so, that without a degree and with no experience in teaching my chances of getting the job were slim.2、However, three days later a letter arrived, asking me to go to Croydon for an interview. It proved an awkward journey: a train to Croydon station; a ten-minute bus ride and then a walk of at least a quarter of a mile. As a result I arrived on a hot June morning too depressed to feel nervous.3、Now in the last month of my residency, sleeping was no longer a problem. There were still situations in which I couldn't be certain my decision had been the right one, but I had learned to accept this as a constant problem for a surgeon, one that could never be completely resolved--and I could live with it. So, once I had made a considered decision, I no longer dwelt on it. Reviewing it wasn't going to help and I knew that with my knowledge and experience, any decision I'd made was bound to be a sound one. It was a nice feeling.4、All that sleepless night I replayed the moment those black gloves came up to the car window. How long did the whole thing last? Three minutes, five, eight? No matter. how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way to prepare for the next time - no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right: There's only luck. The next time I might end up dead.5、And I'm sure there will be a next time. It can happen anywhere, anytime, to anyone. Security is an illusion; there is no safety in locks or in guns. Guns make some people feel safe and some people feel strong, butthey're fooling themselves.6、School children used to know the story of how Abraham Linooln walked five miles to return a pennyhe'd overcharged a customer. It's the kind of story we think of as myth. But in the case of Lincoln, the story is true... unlike the story of George Washington and the cherry tree. Washington's first biographer inventedthe tale of little George saying to his father, "I cannot tell a lie. I did it with my ax. " What is important in both stories, however, is that honesty was seen as an important part of the American character.二、选择题Unit 1:1 Industrial cities such as Chicage and Detroit have severely Polluted the waters of the Great Lakes.2 The doctor‟s report indicated that her death was due to heart disease.3 Medical researchers reached the conclusio n long ago that smoking is a serious hazard to health.4 George Washington, the first President of the United States, is known as the Father of His Country.5 The fire that broke out in the plant during the night was still seen giving off a lot of smoke the next morning.6 They have invented a new type of washing machine.7 The movie we are going to see is said to be based on the life story of an American general.8 The fence along the middle of the road is intended to protect vehicles from crashing in to each other.9 Supporters of gun control have worked for many years to ban the sale of deadly handguns in America.10 My native town, which was originally rather small, has now been built into one of the biggest cities in the province.11 The twin towers of the World Trade Center stick up over Manhattan island in New York city.12 The speaker said something about the actors first and then proceeded to talk about the film.13 We had a long debate as to whether we should spend so much money on space technology.14 A plate dropped from her fingers and smashed/was1 The hostsmall number of guests who attended.2 Shouts of protest sprang up from the angry crowd.3 Many people have the bad habit of spending money on impulse.4 The tone of the teacher‟s voice was gentle but authoritative.5 By careful examination, the doctors hope to track down the source of the infection.6 The attack on Pearl Harbor on December7, 1941 was an unexpected event which brought America into World War2.7 The coat fits the boy perfectly now, but he will outgrow it in a year‟s time.8 The man‟s eyes widened with fear when he saw the robber‟s gun.9 He resumed his regular working hours shortly after he came out of hospital.10 New problems emerge/spring up when old ones are solved.11 Johnny‟s mouth watered at the sight of the big pudding.12 At the first light of dawn the warships made for the open sea.Unit 3:1 A man of humble origin ,Lincoln eventually became President of the United States through his own efforts.2 The floods are threatening most of the villages in the area.3 Many species of animals which once lived on the earth are no longer in existence.4 Once he realizes that it is his mistake, Jim never hesitates to admit and correct it.5 The custom of having one‟s marriage arranged by parents has disappeared in many parts of the world but continues in some Asian and African countries.6 History show that the United States as a nation owes a great deal to the Afro-Americans.7 Acting on the advice of his doctor, Mr. Park had his eye operated on right after he retired last week.8 There is no sense in leaving important decisions to inexperienced people.9 Noticing that my daughter was very shy, out hostess went out to make her feel at home.10 Mrs. Brown, who has recently been appointed general manager of out company, is one of the most capable women I have ever worked with.11 My friend Joe is an experienced doctor, He can be trusted to perform the delicate operations.12 Martin Luther King and Malcolm X were both leaders in Afro American‟s struggle for equal rights; the former a supporter of non-violent struggle, and the latter an advocate of revolution.13 I don‟t want to influence you.

大学英语(2)期末考试复习资料模拟题一、阅读:( 1 )A young man who lived in London was in love with a beautiful girl. Soon she became his fiancée (未婚妻). The man was very poor while the girl was rich. The young man wanted to make her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had very little money. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: gold watches, diamond… but all these things were too expensive. There was one thing he could not take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That was a suitable present for his fiancée. He had been looking at the vase for half an hour when the manager of the shop noticed him. The young man looked so pale, sad and unhappy that the manager asked what had happened to him.The young man told him everything. The manager felt sorry for him and decided to help him. A bright idea struck him. The manager pointed to the corner of the shop. To his great surprise the young man saw a vase broken into many pieces. The manager said: "When the servant enters the room, he will drop it."On the birthday of his fiancée the young man was very excited. Everything happened as had been planned.

Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated by different skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.6. The first paragraph tells us that ______.A. the problem of the generation gap draws much attention from peopleB. it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC. children and parents are trying to understand each otherD. it is very important for people to frequently communicate with each other7. In a more traditional society, old people_______.A. have their children respect and listen to themB. do not care for their children at allC. expect their children to rebel against themD. do not live together with their children8. In American society young people________.A. do not need to find jobsB. leave home at an early ageC. have better education than their parentsD. marry people younger than them9. Which of the following is NOT the cause of the generation gap?A. Young people like to depend more on themselves.B. Parents do not love their children dearly.C. American society changes rapidly.D. Parents expect too much of their children.10. The main idea of the passage is ________.A. that the generation gap needs consideringB. when the generation gap is necessary in American societyC. why the generation gap existD. how we can reduce the generation gap二、交际用语(此部分共有10个未完成的对话,针对每个对话中未完成的部分有4个选项,请从A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出一个最佳选项。

Reading Comprehension: ( 30 points)7071Passage 172After the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, 73earthquake scientists had good news to report.. the damage and death toll 74(死亡人数) could have been much worse. More than 60 people died in this 75earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook 76America in 1988 claimed 25,000 victims.77Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the 78quake occurred at 4:31 a.m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the 79city’s highways. In addition, chang es made to the construction codes 80in Los Angeles during the last 20 years have strengthened the city’s buildings and highways, making them more-resistant to quakes.8182Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on theirsuccesses. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints (蓝图)forimproved quake-resistant buildings. The new designs should offer even greater security to cities where earthquakes often take place. In the past, making structures quake-resistant meant firm yet flexible materials, such as steel and woods,that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building odd its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent design give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports, called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake vibrations. When the ground shakes and the building tips forward, the computer would force the building to shift in the opposite direction. The new smart structures could be very expensive to build. However, they would save lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.1. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low is that_____D______.A.new computers had been installed in the buildingsB.it occurred in the residential areas rather than on the highwaysC.large numbers of Los Angeles residents had gone for a holiday装订线107D.improvements had been made in 108the construction of buildings and highways1092.The function of the computer 110mentioned in the passage is to_____A_____.111A.counterbalance an 112earthquake’s action on the building113B.predict the coming of an 114earthquake with accuracyC.help strengthen the 115116foundation of the building117D.measure the impact of an 118earthquake’s vibrations1193.The smart buildings discussed 120in the passage____B______.A.would cause serious financial 121122problems123B.would be worthwhile thoughcostly124125C.would increase the complexity 126of architectural designD.can reduce the ground 127128vibrations caused by earthquakes129Passage 2130The appeal of advertising to buying motives can have both negative 131132and positive effects. Consumers may be convinced to buy a product of poor quality or high price because of an advertisement. For example, some 133134advertisers have appealed to people’s desire for better fuel economy 135for their cars by advertising automotive products that improve gasoline mileage(英里数). Some of the products work. Others are worthless and a 136137waste of consumer’s money.138Sometimes advertising is intentionally misleading. A few years agoa brand of bread was offered to dieters(节食者) with the message that 139140there were fewer calories(热量单位,大卡) in every slice. It turned out 141that the bread was not dietetic(适合于节食的), but just regular bread. 142There were fewer calories because it was sliced very thin, but there were 143the same number of calories in every loaf.144On the positive side, emotional appeals may respond to a consumer’s real concerns. Consider fire insurance. Fire insurance may be sold by 145146appealing to fear of loss. But fear of loss is the real reason for fire 147insurance. The security of knowing that property is protected by 148insurance makes the purchase of fire insurance a worthwhile investment 149for most people. If consumers consider the quality of the insurance plans 150as well as the message in the ads, they will benefit from the advertising. 151Each consumer must evaluate her or his own situation. Are the benefits 152of the product important enough to justify buying it? Advertising is 153intended to appeal to consumers, but it does not force them to buy theproduct. Consumers still control the final buying decision.1541554.Advertising can persuade the consumer to buy worthless 156products by______C_________.A.maintaining a balance between quality and price157158B.convincing him of their low price159C.appealing to his buying motives160D.stressing their high quality1615.The reason why the bread advertisement is misleading is 162that_______A_________.163A.the total number of calories in the loaf remained the same 164B.thin slices of bread could contain more calories165C.the loaf was cut into regular slices166D.the bread was not genuine bread1676.The passage tells us that__________C___________.168A.Advertisements occasionally force consumers into buying 169things they don’t need170B.The buying motives of consumers are controlled by 171advertisementsC.Sometimes advertisements really sell what the consumer needs 172173D.Fire insurance is seldom a worthwhile investment1747.It can be inferred from the passage that a smart consumer 175should _______B_________.176A.be familiar with various advertising strategies177B.think carefully about the benefits described in the 178advertisements179C.guard against the deceiving nature(欺骗性) of advertisements 180D.avoid buying products that have strong emotional appeal 181182Passage 3183I love traveling in the countryside, bu t I don’t like losing my way. 184I went on a trip recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected. 185“I’m going to Woodford Green,” I said to the conductor as I got on 186the bus, “but I don’t know where it is.”187“I’ll tell you where to get off,” answer the co nductor.188I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. 189After some time, the bus stopped. Looking around, I realized with a shock 190that I was the only passenger left on the bus.191“You’ll have to get off there,” the conductor said. “This is as 192far as we go.”“Is this Woodford Green?” I asked.193194“Oh, dear,” said the conductor suddenly. “I forgot to put you off.”“It doesn’t matter,” I said. “I’ll get off here.”195196“We are going back now,” said the conductor.197“Well, in that case, I would prefer to stay on the bus,” I answered.1988.
