Or they kept a water pitcher <大水罐>and a wash basin in their rooms and took care of these things there.The bathtub was a wash tub<澡盆>filled with water from the stove. If you were small enough you could sit down by drawing your knees to your chest. Otherwise, you washed yourself standing up. Often all the women and girls in the family bathedtogether. Then the men and boys did. In most families this was Saturday night because Sundays they went to church.A small number of families did have running water. But that depended on whether there was a water system where they lived and on whether they could afford the plumbing<水管设施>. Some people had bathtubs in their homes as early as 1895. But many others did not have their first bath in a bathtub until 1910 or later when they were fifteen or sixteen years old.56In the first paragraph, "took care of" means ""。

On one student’s paper was just the one 25 , “It’s so cool.” 26 he thought it was 27 to describe 28 he saw and felt. 29 the story also proves the shortage of words and expressions. 30 “cool,” some people have no words to express the same meaning. So it is 31 to improve our word strength to maintain some 32 . As a popular word, “cool” stands for a kind of special 33 that people can accept easily.

One step is tomake sure that the house seems a lived-in one. Living room curtains should be pulled down only half-way. Bedrooms thatusually have the curtains pulled down at night should be left down . Another is to make surethat all outside locks are thedead-bolt type (双保险) . Still another is to leave several 100W lights burning and make sure that one is in the kitchen.Lights that turned on and off by themselves are the best. Then, too, it is a good idea to leavethe radio turned on and setto a talking station. Any type of speaking makes a thief think twice before trying to enter. Finally, while away on holiday,make sure that nothing collects in front or in the house. Particularly, make certain that the newspaper is stopped and thata trusted neighbour has been asked to pick up the mail. Thieves are especially quick to notice piled-up newspapers andoverpiled mail boxes.36. Why did the writer begin this piece with question?A. Because he wanted to catch the readers' attention.B. Because he wanted to have the readers guess the answer before reading.C. Because he wanted to sum up (概括) the topic of the piece.D. Because he wanted to make the readers understand him better.37. The word "live-in" in this passage means ______________.A. left emptyB. lively and cheerfulC. now being used by peopleD. laid inside38. What does the writer advise the people to do?A. Ask a neighbour to pick up the daily mailB. Make sure to have lights that turn on and off by themselves.C. Make sure the newspaper is handed over every day.D. Pull the living room curtains down.39. The most important room to leave a light burning in is the _________.A. bedroomB. kitchenC. living roomD. sitting-room( B )Mr Richards has worked in a small seaside town for about ten years and he and his wife have a comfortable house near thesea.During the winter they would be quite happy, but every summer a lot of their relatives used tospend holiday in their house, and it was much cheaper than staying in hotel . Finally one day in June Mr Richards complained to a clever friend of hiswho lived in the same p lace. "One of my wife's cousins is going to bring her husband and children and spend ten days withus next month again. How have you prevented all your relatives from coming to live with you insummer ?" "Oh,"the friendanswered, "that is not difficult. I just borrow money from all the rich ones, and lend it toall the poor ones. After that,they seldom come again." Hearing this Mr Richards smiled.40.

Gradually Mr Richards succeeded in keeping his relatives out in summerD. sNone of Richards' relatives came to the seaside town for their holidays again( C )I wonder why American towns looks so much alike that I sometimes mix them up in my memory. Thestandard influence(影响)of massproduction whose agents(代理商)are the travellingsalesman, the mail-order house, the five-and-ten cent stores, the chain stores, the movies canhardly explain it. If you staytwo days in Bologna and in Ferrare, or in Arles and in Avignon, you will never mix them up inall your life. But it may wellhappen that after you spend two days in St.Louis and in Kansas City the appearances of thesetwo cities soon mix up. I thinkthe reason for this is that these towns have not yet had time enough to develop their owncharacters. Similarly, children aremuch less different from each other than grown people.44. Which two of the following towns look so much alike?A. Bologna and FerrareB. Arles and AvignonC. St. Louis and Kansas CityD. Bologna and St. Louis45. In line 4 the word "it" refers to ____________.A. standard of townsB. similarity of townsC. people's memoryD. mass production46. American towns look very much alike because of ____________.A. the standard influence of mass productionB. their different appearancesC. not being fully developedD. having everything in common( D )Millions of stars are travelling about in space. A few form groups which journey together, butmost of them travel alone.And they travel through a universe so large that one star seldom comes near to another. For themost part each star makesits journey in complete loneliness, like a ship on an empty ocean. The ship will be well overa million miles from itsnearest neighbor. From this it is easy to understand why a star seldom finds another anywhereneat it.We believe, however, that some two thousand million years ago, another star wandering(漫游) through space, happened to comenear our sun, Just as the sun and the moon raise tides(潮汐)on the earth, so this star must have raised tides on thesurface of the sun .But they were very different from the small tides that are raised in ouroceans; a large tidal wavemust have travelled over the surface of the sun, at last forming a mountain so high that we cannot imagine it. As the causeof the disturbance(动荡) came nearer, so the mountain rose higher and higher. And before thestar began to move away again,its tidal pull had become so powerful that this mountain was torn to pieces and threw off smallparts of itself into space.These small pieces have been going round the sun ever since. They are the planets(行星).47. Millions of stars are _______________.A. following a regular path in spaceB. moving about without a fixed courseC. seldom wandering about in the universeD. always travelling together48. Some two thousand million years ago, the mountain on the sun was raised probably because__________.A. a large tidal wave of a star travelled over the surface of the sunB. another star happened to come near the sunC. the sun and the moon raised the tides on the earthD. the star moved away from the sun49. The article suggests that _____________ .A. our earth exists before the sunB. how space formedC. no one knows where the earth comes fromD. our earth used to be a high mountain on the sun50. The expression "the cause of the disturbance" refers to _________.A. the large tidal waveB. the powerful tidal pullC. the star coming near the sunD. one of the sun's planets51. In this article, the writer mainly wants to tell the readers __________.A. that the universe is so large that we cannot imagine itB. how the high mountains were formed on the sunC. why the tides over the surface of the sun were so powerfulD. where the planets in the universe came from( E )Contacts(交往) between Japan and the rest of the world have grown a great deal in the twentieth century. In the last thirtyyears, business contacts between Japan and the West have become very important. Many foreigncompanies now have offices inJapan and Japanese businessmen do business around the world.Differences between Japanese and Western ways of doing business, however, often bewilder theforeign businessman and makedoing business in Japan difficult for foreigners.The American businessman, for example , wants of start talking business immediately . He wantsquick decisions. He does notwait. The Japanese, on the other hand , likes to arrive at decisions gradually after giving them a great deal of thought.Another thing foreign businessmen have difficulty in understanding is when a Japanese means "Yes" or "No". This is becauseof cultural difference for a Japanese to say "No" directly.In English, it is easy to say "No" to something we do not want to do. But in Japan it is verydifficult to say "No". Torefuse an invitation or a request with "No", or a similar phrase, is felt to be impolite. Itis thought to be selfish(自私)and unfriendly. So instead of saying "No" directly, the Japanese have developed many ways toavoid saying "No". Theseenable them to avoid hurting other people's feeling. However, this often makes communicationwith the Japanese difficultfor foreigners to understand and follow.52. Paragraph one tells us that ______________ .A. It is not always easy for foreigners to do business in JapanB. Japan is a very important country for businessmenC. business contacts between Japan and the West are importantD. Japanese businessmen do business all around the world53. The word "bewilder" in paragraph 2 probably means _________.A. tireB. interestC. puzzleD. surprise54. From the passage we can know that _____________.A. American businessmen do things more quickly than Japanese onesB. American businessmen like to say "Yes" and "No"C. Americans usually say what they are thinkingD. Americans do not express themselves clearly55. The passage tells us that ________.A. Japanese businessmen are good at businessB. foreign businessmen should first try to understand JapaneseC. foreign businessmen must be more politeD. if you want to succeed you must learn from Japan第四部分：写作第一节：短文改错此题要求改正所给短文中的错误。

AYou can use your Business Telecard International at any card phone in the United Kingdom. Here is some information about making international phone calls.You can now phone almost any country in the world, although in some cases you can only call big cities. When you cannot make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else, in this case you should ask for a “person-to-person” call. Even more expensive is a reverse charge(对⽅付款)call where the person who receives the call pays.If the international line is busy, you can reserve(留下)a call, explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.You can save money by calling outside office hours, for example, early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays. Remember that the time may be different in the country that you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time). London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, is 3 hours ahead. There is one problem: change to DST (Daylight Saving Time) for the summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in spring and put back in autumn, and so London is actually one hour ahead of GMT in the summer.56. What is the most expensive type of call?A. Direct dial.B. Through the operator.C. Reverse charge call.D. Calling outside office hours.（本题分值：2分）【正确答案】C57. What can you do if the international line is engaged?A. Ask the operator to call you back later.B. Make a “person-to-person” call.C. Call back outside office hours.D. Wait and call again when the line is free.（本题分值：2分）【正确答案】A58.

EAs more women in the United States move up the professional ladder, more are finding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some trips are certainly in order. If you are married, it is a good idea to encourage your husband and children to learn to cook a few simple meals while you are away. They will be much happier and probably enjoy the experience. If you will be eating a good meal alone, choose good restaurants. In the end, they will be much better for your digestion(消化). You may also find it useful to call the restaurant in advance and state that you will be eating alone. You will probably get better service and almost certainly a better table. Finally, and most importantly, anticipate(提前做准备)your travel needs as a businesswoman; this starts with lightweight luggage which you can easily manage even when fully packed. Take a folding(折叠)case inside your suitcase; it will come in extremely handy(极其⽅便)for dirty clothes, as well as for business documents and papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so that you can keep currently required papers separate. Obviously, experience helps, but you can make things easier on yourself from the first by careful planning, so that right from the start you really can have a good trip!73. Who is the author's intended audience?［A］ Working women who have no time for cooking.［B］ Husbands and children of working women.［C］ Working women who must travel on their own.［D］ Hotel personnel who must attend to working women.74. Why is lightweight luggage important for the travelling businesswoman?［A］ It provides space for dirty clothes.［B］ It is easy to move.［C］ It can double as a briefcase.［D］ It is usually big enough to carry all business documents.75. Where would this passage most likely appear?［A］ In a magazine specially for women.［B］ In a restaurant and hotel guide.［C］ In a news magazine.［D］ In a journal for top ranking businessmen and women.第⼆卷第四部分：写作第⼀节短⽂改错此题要求改正所给短⽂中的错误。

全国英语等级考试pets二级模拟考试样题解析通用一篇全国英语等级考试pets二级模拟考试样题解析 1There is distinction between reading for information and reading for understanding.31 The first sense is the one in which we read newspapers, magazines, or anything else.32Such materials may increase our store of information, but they cannot improve our understanding. And clearly we don' t have any difficulty in .gaining the new information, for our understanding was equal to them before we started. Otherwise, we would have felt the shock of puzzlement.The second sense is the one in which we read something that at first we do not pletely un- derstand. Here the thing to be read is at the first sight better or higher than the reader. The writer is municating something that can increase the reader' s understanding.33Otherwise one per- son could never learn from another. Here “learning" means understanding more, not remembering more information.What are the conditions in this kind of reading? First, there isinequality in understanding.34Besides, his book must convey something he possesses and his potential readers lack. Sec-ond, the reader must be able to e this inequality in some degree. And he should always try to reach the same level of understanding with the writer. If the equality is approached, success of munication is achieved.35It is the least demanding and requires the least amount of effort. Everyone who knows how to read can read for entertainment if he wants to. In fact, any book that can be read for under- standing or information can probably be read for entertainment as well.A. The writer should have a better municating skill.B. Such munication between unequals must be possible.C. We can get access to the content of those materials easily.D. The writer must be "superior" to the reader in understanding.E. Thus, we can employ the word "reading" in two distinct senses.F. Reading for entertainment is capable of increasing our understanding for information.G. Besides gaining information and understanding, there' sanother goal of reading-enter-tainment.答案及解析31.E根据第二段第一句的“The first sense is the one.”和第三段第一句的“The second sense is the one in which we。

第三部分阅读理解 阅读下列短⽂，从每题所给的四个选项 (A.B.C和D)中选出选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂⿊。

A As my train wasn't due to leave for another hour, I had plenty of time to spare. After buying some newspapers to read on the journey, I made my way to the luggage office to collect the heavy suitcase I had left there three days before. There were only a few people waiting, and I took out my wallet to find the receipt for my case. The receipt didn't seem to be where I had left it. I emptied the contents of the wallet, and railway-tickets, money, scraps of paper, and photographs fell out of it; but no matter how hard I searched, the receipt was nowhere to be found. When my turn came, I explained the situation sorrowfully to the assistant. The man looked at me uspiciously as if to say that he had heard this type of story many times and asked me to describe the case. I told him that it was an old, brown-looking object not different from the many cases I could see on the shelves. The assistant then gave me a form and told me to make a list of the chief contents of the case. If they were correct, he said, I could take the case away. I tried to remember all the articles I had hurriedly packed and wrote them down as they came to me. After I had done this, I went to look among the shelves. There were hundreds of cases there and for one dreadful moment, it occurred to me that if someone had picked the receipt up, he could have easily claimed the case already. This hadn't happened fortunately, for after a time I found the case lying on its side high up in a comer. After examining the articles inside, the assistant was soon satisfied that it was mine and told me I could take the case away. Again I took out my wallet: this time to pay. I pulled out a ten-shilling note and the "lost" receipt slipped out with it. I couldn't help blushing and looked up at the assistant. He was nodding his head knowingly, as if to say that he had often seen this happen before too! 56. The underlined words "to spare" probably means( ). [A] to show mercy to [B] to leave over or more than you need [C] to be free [D] to use in a small quantity 57.Why did the go to the luggage office? [A] He went there to get his case. [B] He went there to see a friend. [C] He went there to buy something to eat. [D] He wanted to ask when the train was leaving. 58.There were a lot of things in his wallet except( ). [A] railway-tickets [B] money [C] photographs [D] ID card 59.The writer took out his wallet the second time to ( ). [A] search for his receipt again [B] find some paper to write on [C] pay for the service [D] see if his railway-tickets were there 60.What can you infer from the passage? [A] The writer actually put the receipt in his case. [B] The writer easily found his case in the luggage office. [ C ] The writer was a careless person. [ D ] The train arrived behind schedule. B "Depend on yourself" is what nature says to every man. Parents can help you. Teachers can help you. Others still can help you. But all these only help you to help yourself. There have been many great men in history. But many of them were very poor in childhood, and no uncles, aunts or friends to help them. Schools were few and not very good. They could not depend upon them for an education. They saw how it was, and set to work with all their might(⼒量) to know something. They worked their own way up to fame (荣誉). One of the famous teachers in England used to tell his pupils, "I cannot make worthy men but I can help you make men of yourselves. " Some young men have no ambition(雄⼼)to excel in anything, and they are to be pitied: they can never achieve much unless they see their weak points and change their course. They are not now, and will be nothing as long as they live, unless they accept the advice of their parents and teach and depend on their own honest efforts. 61. Many of the great men in history succeeded because [A] they were very poor in childhood [B] they could not depend on schools for an education [C] they made great efforts to learn and work [D] they wanted very much to become famous 62. According to the famous teacher in England, a teacher can [A] make his pupils worthy men [B] help his pupils make themselves useful men [C ] make his pupils men of strength and courage [D] help his pupils find a way to fame 63. If young people depend on their own efforts, _________ . [A] they are to be pitied [B] they are nothing now and will be nothing in the future [C] they can be ambitious [D] they can be successful in their careers (事业) 64. Which title best fits the passage? [A] How to Be Famous. [B] Dare to Excel. [C] Depend on Yourself. [D] What Nature Says to Every Man. C A young boy, about eight years old, was at the store picking out a large box of laundry detergent (洗⾐清洁剂). The grocer(杂货商) walked over and, trying to be friendly, asked the boy if he had a lot of laundry to do. "Oh, no laundry," the boy said. "I'm going to wash my dog." "But you shouldn't use this to wash your dog. It's very powerful and if you wash your dog with this, he'll get sick. In fact, it might even kill him. " But the boy was not stopped by this and carried the detergent to the counter and paid for it, even as the grocer still tried to talk him out of washing his dog. About a week later the boy was back in the store doing some shopping. The grocer asked the boy how his dog was doing. "Oh, he died," the boy said. The grocer said, "I tried to tell you not to use that detergent on your dog." Well, the boy replied, 'I don t think it was the detergent that killed him. Oh I m sorry. How did he die? "I think it was the spin cycle (甩⼲筒). " 65. The boy bought a large box of laundry detergent to_________ . [A] wash a lot of clothes [B] wash his dog [C] clean the floor in his house [D] clean the furniture in his house 66.The grocer _________ after he got to know what the boy wanted to do. [A] tried to sell the boy more goods [B] tried to persuade the boy to give up his plan [C] told the boy he was too young to do shopping [D] got angry at the boy 67.The boy's dog died-it was _________. [A] washed with boiling water [B] run over by a car [C] killed by the grocer [D] washed in a washing machine D People often show their feelings by the body positions they adopt. These can contradict what you are saying, especially when you are trying to disguise the way you feel. For example, a very common defensive position, assumed when people feel threatened in some way, is to put your arm or arms across your body. This is a way of shielding yourself from a threatening situation. This shielding action can be disguised as adjusting one's cuff or watchstrap. Leaning back in your chair especially with your arms folded is not only defensive, it's also a way of showing your disapproval, of a need to distance yourself from the rest of the company. A position which betrays an aggressive attitude is to avoid looking directly at the person you are speaking to. On the other hand, approval and desire to cooperate are shown by copying the position of the person you are speaking to. This shows that you agree or are willing to agree with someone. The position of one's feet also often shows the direction of people's thoughts. For example, feet or a foot pointing towards the door can indicate that a person wishes to leave the room. The direction in which your foot points can also show which of the people in the room you feel most sympathetic towards, even when you are not speaking directly to that person. 68.
