Alice observes Arthur，sitting quietly across the room enjoying his cup of tea．“I don’t know．”she says，laughing.The johns shared a big bed until a few years ago，when their aching bodies finally forced them to sleep separately．But Alice still gets up every morning and fixes her husband coffee and toast．Alice and Arthur don’t talk much these days．He can’t see but can hear pretty well．Alice can see with the help of glasses，but can’t hear clearly．This，together with Arthur’s failing memory and mind，makes conversation tough．“Mom has a tough time with Dad these days because of his poor health．” says Dorothy．“But they have always cared for each other．”And they inspired strong values in their children：never gossip，respect your elders，be clean--even if you’re living in a tent—and be kind to one another．20．What does the word“suitor”(Para．2) probably mean?A．A person who asks for marriage．B．A person who Joins a hunting teamC．A male friend of the girl’s family．D．A 15-year-old village girl.21．What contributions to the long marriage according to the passage?A．Similar living habits．B．Love at first sightC．Lots of children and grandchildren．D．Tolerance towards each other．22．Why are Arthur and Alice no longer sleeping in the same bed?A．Arthur can’t see clearly．B．Alice has no prepare breakfast．C．They feel strong pain in their bodies．D．They don’t get up at the same time．23．According to Dorothy，what helps her parents go through the tough time?A．Having the habit of being clean．B．Respecting their elders．C．Inspiring their children．D．Looking after each other．Questions 24 to 27 are based on the following passage．Have you ever wondered how historic places survive over time? One of the ways is through the World MonumentsFund(WMF)．The WMF is a group of experts who work to save the most treasured places on Earth．Every two years，the WMF announces a Watch List，a 1ist of special places that need requiring or improvement．This year’S sites spread across 41 countries and six continents．Like endangered(濒危的)animals，some places are considered endangered because，without help，they might not survive on their own．Sites are placed on the list for many different reasons．Some sites are added because they have been ignored over the years and fallen into disrepair．Others are added because natural disasters have harmed the site．Six sites in the United States are on the list this year．One of the spots is a historical district in Charleston，South Carolina，which is popular with people on vocation．Another U.S.Site is located on the Fifth Avenue in New York City．Built in 1954, the Manufacturers Hanover Tr ust Company Bank was called the“glass house．”It is a four—story bank．Because the building is made of glass，you can see the giant vault(拱顶)right inside the bank．Many artists think the building is a special part of New York City’S history．Improving sites can be very expensive．This year，American Express donated(捐赠)five million dollars to help the project over the next five years．’WMF president Bonnie Burnham said it’s important to save as much history as much history as possible in a rapidly changing world．“We’re shaping the world of tomorrow．”she said．“But we’re doing it in the present．”24．What is the mission of the World Monuments Fund?A．To repair historic places．B．To protect wild animals．C．To preserve endangered historic sites．D．To prevent disasters from damaging the sites．25．The word“disrepair”(Para．3) is closest in meaning to______.A. bad conditionB. serious threatC. negative influenceD. urgent consideration26．What is most special about the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company Bank in New York City?A．It was built in 1954．B．It is made of glass．C．It is located on the Fifth Avenue in New York City．D．The building has four floors．27．Why is the WMF important to our changing world?A．It provides US with donations．B．It announces a watch list every year．C．It is popular with people on vocation．D．It helps US save as much history as possible．Questions 28 to 31 are based on the following passage.Almost nine in ten university graduates with first or second class degrees see freelancing(⾃由职业)as a profitable career choice，according to a new survey.A fifth of graduates with first class degrees have already decided to work as a freelancer，the study shows，while 29％of allgraduates intend to make freelance work part of their career plans. 85％say they see it becoming the norm(常规)within the next five Years.The findings suggest graduates are drawn to freelancing by the independence and flexibility on offer：more than two thirds said freelancing presented a better work—life balance than a traditional job，and 38％found the variety offered by freelance work appealing．Graduates may also be keen to gain more control over their lives after university；28％said they see freelancing as a good way to work for themselves．Recent figures from the Higher Education Statistics Agency show that one in ten young people are still out of work six months after graduation．The potential to make money was also tempting；38％of those surveyed said they believe they can earn at least as much as they would with a traditional career.Graduates，parents were less certain，however．41％of respondents though their parents would view freelancing as a risky career move，mentioning concerns about healthcare and pensions(退休⾦)，and just one in ten said their parents would actively encourage them to freelance．The study of 1，032 graduates was conducted by Elance，the online work platform．There are about 1.4 million freelancers in Britain，mostly working in programming，design and multimedia，or writing and translation．28．According to the passage，freelance Jobs cannot offer______．A．flexibility B. earning potentialC．work—life balance D. Healthcare benefits29．According to statistics，the percentage of graduates remaining out of work six monthsafter leaving university is______.A．10％B．28％C．38％D．41％30．What is most parents’attitudes toward s freelancing?A．Approving．B．Doubtful．C．Negative．D Supportive31．What can we learn from the passage?A．Translation can provide an excellent opportunity for freelancers．B．Most graduates regard freelancing as a profitable career choice．C．There will be more and more graduates out of work．D．Unemployed people are pursuing alternative’career paths．Questions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage．Athletes of all shapes and sizes need to pay attention to what goes into their bodies，bu t sometimes It’s hard t0 know exactly what’s being consumed．Sugar is one of those substances that you might take too much without knowing．One can of Coke contains about 39 grams of sugar，amounting to a total of 140 calories(卡路⾥)．Given their complex lack of nutritional(营养的)value，soft drinks aren’t worth your time．Another problem is that most people love the taste of sugar and often don’t care whether they consume an unhealthy amount．This presents a risk for the general population，but emphatically for young athletes looking to improve their game．Like many things in life，there’s a fine line between too much sugar and just the right amount．Staying within the 40-to-60 grams per day range, athletes can use simple sugars to their advantage，fueling their normal levels of activity．Beyond that，intense physical activity requires athletes to increase their daily sugar intake．Some performance-supporting sugars are found in all kinds of healthy fruits．That’s why NBA All-Star Carmelo Anthony has adopted a diet(饮⾷) filled with fruits to stay within his weight range of 228-230 pounds．He would not be the dominating force if he didn’t pay attention to his diet，specifically his sugar consumption. He limits sugar intake to before and after workouts，both fueling his body and satisfying his sweet tooth．32．What is the author’s opinion about soft drinks?A．They are of little value．B．They contain too much sugar．C.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1I strongly believe that understanding is more important than love, especially when it comes to parenting and intimate relationships. As a psychologist for more than twenty years I can tell you that I have never had an adult looking back at her childhood and complaining that her parents were too understanding. And similarly, I have met many divorced people who still love each other but yet they never really understood each other.The painful reality is love is just not enough. I’ll admit that there are people who I love and who I still need to b etter understand. I hope I’ll continue my work to understand them. The willingness to understand is very important. It is not always easy, but healthy love is strengthened by the willingness to understand. Love without understanding will wilt like flowers without water.Our egos are what seem to get in the way of understanding those who we love and care about. Often it is our need to be right that makes what others think and feel so wrong for us. I have certainly been quite guilty of this in some of my relationships.As I have written repeatedly in my books, empathy, is truly the emotional glue that holds all close relationships together. Empathy allows us to slow down and try to walk in the shoes of those we love. The deeper our empathy, the deeper—and healthier— our love. Not all relationships are meant to be. Yet all relationships that are meant to flourish in a healthy way, must stress understanding just as much, if not more, than love.61. From the passage we know that________.A. the author complains about her parents ‘being too understandingB. the author has been studying marriages for more than 20 yearsC. people divorced mainly because they didn’t love each otherD. some people divorced because they couldn’t understand each other62. Why are we unable to understand the others sometimes?A. Because we are caring the others too much.B. Because it is quite difficult to understand the others.C. Because we believe we are always right.D. Because the others have done something wrong.63. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Understanding is more important to parenting relationship than to other intimaterelationships.B. Understanding is less important than love as far as marriage is concerned.C. Understanding is more important than love to some degree.D. Understanding is more often neglected in parenting relationship.64. If we are to understand our partners, we should ________firstly .A. have willingness to do soB. have love for themC. get into connection with themD. care about them65. In this passage, the expression “walk in the shoes of” is similar in meaning to________ .A. befriendB. understandC. loveD. care aboutPassage 2Finally, the Christmas season is over. We can take a long breath, put up our feet, sip from a cup of good tea and relax. The frenzy, starting from Black Friday right after Thanksgiving until Christmas Eve, of gift shopping, buying, wrapping, giving, receiving, opening, returning…is exhaustive and time consuming, but it takes place every year.There is considerable difference between the cultures in China and western countries when it comes to gift giving. In China, it is not polite to open a gift in front of the gift giver, and gift is only looked at after the guest has left. Here in America, gift givers always wrap their gifts, large or small, priceless or valueless, carefully and decorate them with colorful ribbons and little pretty paper flowers; and the lucky receiver is expected to open the gift right away in front of the giver, with great eagerness and curiosity, and should always express appreciation with the all time truthful comment, “this is just exactly what I wanted!” Well, as a matter of fact, most people would take their “always wanted” gi fts back to the store to exchange for something they reallywanted.Finding a gift for somebody, even a close family member, you’ll have to know what the person likes and shop for days before you can locate the perfect gift. But, still the person may not like the gift from you. Nowadays, stores would provide two copies of the receipts for anything they sell as a gift, one of which is included in the gift package so that the receiver can come back for an exchange. I know, it was unthinkable to cash out gift you get, but, times are different. Another good way to avoid all that shopping hassle is to purchase a gift card from one of the stores and send it to your niece, nephews, or a family member, so that they can get whatever they want or even keep the money.66. Finding a gift for somebody is a(n)________.A. easy jobB. tough taskC. Must be jobD. arranged task67. It is quite ________ for Chinese people to open the gift in front of the givers.A. usualB. normalC.abnormalD. unusual68. Gift giving is the same thing in China and America in that ________.A. people spend a lot of time preparing a giftB. people would cash out the gift immediatelyC. people are eager to get a gift from a friendD. people are less willing to give gifts69. Which of the following is the author’s suggestion?A. Open the gift immediately in front of the giver.B. Wrap the gift carefully.C. Express the appreciation for the gift you receive.D. Buying a present card to avoid the trouble in shopping.70. The author’s attitude towards gift giving is________ .A. indifferentB. protestingC.objectiveD. supportivePassage 3They already guide blind and disabled people；now dogs are to be trained to help people with dementia(痴呆). The duti es of these “guide dogs for the mind” will include reminding their owners to take medication, as well as encouraging them to eat, drink and sleep at regular intervals.The dementia dogs will be trained to respond to sound triggers in the home that prompt them to perform tasks. These could include delivering a bite proof bag of medicine with a note inside reminding the patient to take it, or waking them up in the morning.The idea was developed by design students at the Glasgow School of Art and will now be put into practice by Alzheimer’s Scotland and Dogs for the disabled.Joyce Gray of Alzheimer’s Scotland said: “People in the early stages of dementia are still able to live a relatively normal life, and dogs help to maintain routine.”The other advantage of using the pets as companions is that conversation can be increasingly confusing for people with Alzheimer’s, but dogs can give them a sense of silent support and companionship. People light up when they see animals. They don’t need to communicate ver bally but they can still interact. You can have a speechless bond.The dog would also encourage the owner to take them out for walks, ensuring they keep exercising and interacting with other people.71. As is mentioned in the passage, the guide dogs will do the following except for________.A. helping ensure the owner doing some exercisesB. reminding the owner to take medicineC. communicating with the owner in a non verbal wayD. helping the owner recover from the illness72. Who will train the dogs to perform such tasks?A. The students who developed the idea.B. The owners of the dogs.C. The experts in Alzheimer’s Scotland.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.73. What is true about the people suffering from dementia?A. They would like to stay with other people.B. They can maintain routine.C. They will gradually lose the ability to live a normal life.D. They would like to talk in a different way.74. The guide dogs helping the people with dementia will________.A. respond to t he owners’ orderB. respond to a sound deviceC. act on the owners’ instructionsD. act on the trainers’ order75. Having a conversation with people with dementia will be________.A. difficultB. interestingC. confusingD. encouragingPassage 4It seems obvious that you don’t give away your product for free but this is exactly what indie rock group The Crimea did earlier this year. The band’s reasoning goes like this: more people will download the free album than would pay for it. Therefore more people will hear The Crimea’s music. These people will then pay money for concerts by the band and perhaps buy a T-shirt or other merchandise. If the band play regular concerts to crowds of 200 or 300 people they can make more money than they would from sales of a CD. There will always be some people who want something they can hold in their hands so they will release the CD into the shops too—but making money through sales of their music isn’t the top priority.The story illustrates the creative thinking going on in the music business in response to dramatic changes over the last few years in the way that people buy music. Sales of music digitally—to computer, phones and MP3 players rose to＄2 billion in 2006—an increase of almost 100 percent on the previous year—yet overall record company sales are down. People are simply not buying CDs in record shops in anything like the numbers they used to.This trend looks set to continue so the big question for the music industry is whether they can successfully manage the move to being primarily a digital industry without profits falling to unacceptable levels.There are both positive and negative signs. On the plus side, more and more people are buying music on mobile phones, which allows people to make impulse purchases—they can buy a song as soon as they hear it. Research by the UK mobile operator 3 suggested that 75 percent of 16 to 24year olds wanted to buy a track they liked as soon as they heard it. With so much competition for people’s disposable income, a product that you can sell immediately is a big advantage.The bad news for record companies, however, is the amount of music that is downloaded illegally.Piracy—usually in the form of cheaply copied CD—has long been an issue for the music business but the Internet means music can be copied and distributed freely through file-sharing sites on a large scale than ever before.It is this situation that leads bands to start giving away their music for free and promises to make the next few years a very interesting time in the music business.76. What is unusual about the Crimea’s business plan?A. Their business was given away free on the Internet.B. They gave CDs away free in shops.C. They played free concerts.D. They charged more for their CDs77. The Crimea hope to make money________ .A. through CD salesB. by giving concerts and selling T-shirts and other merchandiseC. by selling merchandise on the InternetD. through sales of merchandise in shops78. The Crimea also released CDs for sale in shops because________ .A. people who attend their concerts need themB. they want to make extra moneyC. there are still people who prefer CDs to other formatsD. people who fail to attend their concerts need them79. What is true about sales of music over the last year?A. Overall, sales are up last year.B. Overall, sales are down last year.C. There is no change compared to previous sales.D. It is not mentioned in the passage.80. What effect has the Internet had on music piracy?A. It has made it easier to fight piracy.B. It has increased the number of pirate CDs available.C. It has made it easier to illegally copy music.D. It has reduced the number of pirate CDs available.Part Ⅱ Cloze (1×20 points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Many visitors to the United Kingdom go straight to London and never set foot outside the capital—which is a pity, for those that do are often surprised at the sheer variety of landscapes 41 within such a small geographical area. 42 you want to see stunning, unspoilt scenery you should 43 spend a few days in one of Britain’s largest areas of protected countryside, a national park. 44 in the second half of the 20th century after popular pressure for access 45 the country;s wilder places, there are now 15 of them throughout the British Isles.The biggest is the Cairngorms in northern Scotland, named 46 some of the country’s highest mountains and the best place for skiing. Pony trekking, climbing and fishing are also 47 , along with Scotland’s national game, golf. 48 enthusiasts are well rewarded—this is the home of the red deer, red squirrel and golden eagle. If you don’t like the 49 to the highest point, some 2,000 metres 50 sea level, you can take the railway 51 gets you to the summit in less than ten minutes. 52 the west of the park is another popular natural 53 , Loch Ness.

阅读理解2Passage 1Passage One Artist Sam Easterson’s “Animal, Vegetable, Video” project offers a unique look at people in the world: the world as seen by animals and plants. The videos are taken by placing cameras as tiny as half an ounce on animals or plants. There's no specific length for the shooting; it lasts until the camera falls off. The result is a unique perspective applauded by naturalists in which the stars of the film are also the videographers. "If people can see things from the animal and plant perspective, they are far less likely to harm them or their environment, and that's why I present it," Easterson said.It all started from equipping a small flock of sheep with cameras in 1998. Easterson said he learned a lot about his new craft and the nature of animals. "The first thing I realized was how intelligent and aware they are," he said. "The project changed everything in terms of respect. I was shocked to realize all the other animals in the flock could tell that this one sheep with the camera had been 'altered' in some way. She kept trying to enter, and they kept treating her as an enemy. I also learned sheep can run very fast."While not a scientist, Easterson works with researchers by offering details that they may have never seen. Easterson said no animals have been hurt working as videographers. In the long term, Easterson said he hopes to create a library of hundreds of animals, from the unique "first animal" perspective.Questions 1-5: Choose the best answer from A, B, C and D.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2014.05.10Part I Reading 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 m the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten, usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morally wrong". This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.(76) Pre.school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr, Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. It later became known that "every" meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line—equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.(77) Some critics say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9.to.l 1.year.olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended pre.school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills. And two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school.based early education. 1．Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of_______A. eightB. sevenC. sixD. four 2．According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?A. Poor pre.school kids have a larger vocabulary than rich kids.B. President Obama believes that early education can solve all economic and social problems.C. Rich pre.school kids have a richer vocabulary than poor kids.D. President Obama's education secretary thinks it is morally wrong to let kids start kindergarten early.3．Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B. New Jersey has created a new Head Start to help disadvantaged kids.C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.D. Two years of pre.kindergarten were better than one.4．The phrase "single out" in the last paragraph means _______.A. chooseB. think aboutC. countD. depend on 5．Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Secondary EducationB. Pre.school EducationC. Poor Kids’ EducationD. Rich Kids' Education答案详解：1. D four第一段第一句说美国的幼儿园一般在五到六岁开始，第二句说在富裕国家里这么晚才开始是十分奇怪的，所以是在五岁以前，综合答案选择D，四岁。

阅读理解5Passage OneFor many years, officials of the National Institutes of Health have told Americans that they need to get enough sleep. They say this is necessary for people to stay healthy and do well. Now health officials begin to urge children to get enough sleep. They say children need at least nine hours of sleep every night. They say research shows that children who get this much sleep perform better in school and are less likely to become too fat.Studies show that lack of sleep causes tiredness and problems with clear thinking. People who do not get enough sleep become angry easily. They also have trouble controlling their emotions.Among children, problems that result from lack of sleep often are mistaken for more serious disorders. Unlike adults, tired children seem to have endless energy. Some doctors mistakenly identify this as hyper-activity. Many sleep disorders first develop in childhood. But doctors often do not identify the disorder until years later.Experts say many American teenagers are not getting enough sleep. Teenagers stay up late for several reasons. For example, schoolwork, after school activities and late-night fun. Four years ago, education officials in Minneapolis changed the starting time of seven high schools. The officials delayed the starting time by almost ninety minutes.A University of Minnesota study found that participation at the high schools improved after the starting time was changed. However, the later start did not greatly affect the performance of the students. Still, school systems in other parts of the country are discussing later starting times for high school students.Questions 1 – 5: Choose the best answer from A, B, C and D.

A great many educators firmly believe that English is one of the poorest taughtA B Csubjects In high schools today.DThe academic year is divided into two terms, each of which provides for about 15 weeks of instruction plus a week for final examinations. The fall semester, considered the first term of the academic year, usually begins in September or late August, and it is increasingly common for the term to start early enough to be completed before the two-week Christmas holiday. Colleges start later in September. The second or spring semester usually begins sometime in January and ends in late May or early June. Most schools schedule a one- or two-week vacation in March or April. A variation of the semester system being tried by some institutions is the “4—1—4” calendar, which has a four-month fall semester ending in December, a one-month short term in January for which students may enroll if they wish, and another four-month semester beginning early in February.91.

In the “4—1—4” calendar system, the first term begins ___.A. In DecemberB. In AugustC. In JanuaryD. In FebruaryQuestions 96~100 are based on the following passage:In sport the sexes are separate. Women and men do not run or swim in the same faces. Women are less strong than men. That at le ast is what people say. Women are called “the weaker sex”, or, if men want to please them, “the fair sex”. But boys and girls are taught together at schools and universities. There are women who are famous Prime Ministers, scientists and writers. And women live longer than men. A European woman can expect to live until the age of 74, a man only until he is 68. Are women’s bodies really weaker?The fastest men can run a mile in under 4 minutes. The best women need 4.5 minutes. Women’s times are always slower than men’s, but some facts are a surprise. Some of the fastest women swimmers today are teen-age girls. One of them swam 400 meters in 4 minutes 21.2 seconds when she was only 16. The first “Tarzan”(泰山) in films was an Olympic swimmer, Johnny WeissMuller. His fastest 400 meters was 4 minutes 59.1 seconds, which is 37.9 seconds slower than a girl 50 years later! This does not mean that women are catching men up. Conditions are very different now, and sport is much more serious. It is so serious that some women athletes are given hormone injections. At the Olympics a doctor has to check whether the women athletes are really women or not. It seems sad that sport has such problems. Life can be very complicated when there are two separate sexes!96. Women are called “the weaker sex” because ____.A. women do as much work as menB. people think women are weaker than menC. sport is easier for men than for womenD. in sport the two sexes are always together97. Which of the following is true?A. Boys and girls study separately everywhere.B. Women do not run or swim in races with men.C. Famous Prime Ministers are women.D. Men can expect to live longer than women in Europe.98. “That at least is what people say.” Means people____.A. say other things tooB. don’t say this muchC. say this but may not think soD. only think this99. What problems does sport have?A. Some women athletes are actually men.B. Some women athletes are given hormone injections.C. Women and men do not run or swim in the same races.D. It is difficult to check whether women athletes are really women.100. In this passage the author implies that ____.A. women are weaker than men, but fasterB. women are slower than men, but strongerC. men are not always stronger and faster than womenD. men are faster and stronger than womenQuestions 101~105 are base on the following passage:The stamp collector can learn a great deal from the colorful pieces of paper he put in his album. In addition to learning some basic things about organization and systematic arrangement, the stamp collector can receive a good course in history and geography from stamps. As a collector progresses and becomes more specialized, stamps teach him some basic facts about engraving, paper, and printing.Stamps are excellent sources of historical information. Almost every nation celebrates its military heroes and political leaders on its postage stamps. But scientists and artists, from Einstein to Beethoven, also grace the stamps of the world. Famous battles are frequently commemorated, as well as buildings and scenes which have historical significance. Several of the world’s stamp s are beautiful, full-color reproductions of the artistic masterpieces of different historical periods.Stamps also offer instruction in geography. It doesn’t take long before a beginning collector checks the locations of the countries from which his stamps come. Nations like Liechtenstein, San Marino, Andorra, Gabon, Ghana, and Afghanistan, while unknown to many, are usually quite familiar to stamp collectors. Moreover, each country tends to use stamps to advertise its natural wonders. Such renowned attractions as Yosemite National Park, Victoria Falls, Mount Everest, and the Bay and Fundy appear on the stamps of the nation within whose borders they lie.If he wishes to become more of a specialist, the stamp collector can learn some basic things about engraving, paper, and printing. The more advanced collector learns to distinguish between offset and letterpress printing. He learns to identify the different impressions made by metal and wooden engraved plates. He finds out how to detect watermarks in the various papers used for stamps, and how to identify the characteristics of different papers and the coatings which are applied to them. To the layman, most stamps appear pretty much the same. But armed with a magnifying glass, the more specialized collector can tell the difference between a common issue and a rare variety.101. Which of the following statements do you think best describes the main idea of the essay?A. A stamp collector must have a great deal of knowledge in history and geography.B. A stamp collector should be good at organization and systematic arrangement.C. A stamp collector can learn a lot from the stamps he collects.D. A stamp collector is a specialist who know much about engraving, paper and printing.102. The word “album” in the first sentence means___.A. a holder for sets of discB. a blank book used for collecting stampsC. a frame in which the best stamps are displayedD. a small box where colorful stamps are kept103. “Basic thing about organization and systematic arrangement” refers to ___.A. postal organizations and systems that print and issue new stampsB. various organizations and systems that sell new stampsC. organizations all over the world that offer help to stamp collectorsD. knowledge or information about how to organize and arrange things in good order104. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Almost all nations issue stamps celebrating their military heroes or political leaders.B.

Key：106-110 BCCAD 111-115 BCDAC 116-120 BBCAB 121-125 ACDBAIV. Translation from English into Chinese (15 marks)Directions: In this part there is a passage with 5 underlined parts, numbered 126~130. After reading the passage carefully, you should translate the underlined parts into Chinese.Science falls into two main categories: pure science and applied science. (126) Pure science considers how the universe works and how life has developed into the plants and animals we see on earth today. By means of pure science(such as chemistry, physics, geology, biology, or astronomy) we learn the laws of nature, the way the bodies of beasts and men are constructed, and how the minds of men function. (127) Applied science, often called engineering or technology (such as civil, mechanical, electrical, or chemical engineering), puts the laws of nature to practical use on building better structures and machines for the comfort and convenience of men.When a man learns some new fact by research in pure science, we say that he has made a scientific discovery. 128) When he puts an earlier discovery to some practical use, in a new and original way, we say that he has made an invention. In the two hundred years since the beginning of the great change that we call the Industrial Revolution, developments both in pure and in applied science speeded up in a way that the world had never before seen. All the sciences leaped forward, neck and neck like horses in a race. (129) At one time, one pulled ahead; then another caught up with and passed it. An invention in one field made possible some discovery in another; and thatdiscovery, in turn, permitted another new application of science for the benefit of man. (130) For example: the invention of the microscope led to the discovery of germs; eventually, the germ theory of disease made possible the curing of many ills for which no effective treatment had ever before been know.Key：126 理论科学研究宇宙怎样运行，生命怎样发展成为我们今天在地球上所看到的植物和动物。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Choose the correct answer and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage OneHow much living space does a person need? What happens when his space requirements are not adequately met? Sociologists and psychologists are conducting experiments on rats to try to determine the effect of overcrowded conditions on man. Recent studies haveshown that the behavior of rats is greatly affected by space. If rats have adequate living space, they eat well, sleep well, and reproduce well. However, if their living conditions become too crowded, their behavior patterns and even their health perceptibly change. They cannot sleep or eat well, and signs of fear and tension become obvious. The more crowded they are, the more they tend to bite each other and even kill each other. Thus for rats, population and violence are directly related. Is this a natural law for human society as well? Is adequate space not only desirable, but also essential for human survival?51. This passage is mainly about ______.A) living space and behaviorB) population and living conditionsC) interesting experiments on ratsD) a natural law for human society52. What is the purpose of theexperiments described in the passage?A) To determine how much living space a rat needs.B) To see what happens when rats live in a limited space.C) To know the likely effects of inadequate living space on human beings.D) To find out the relationship between population and living conditions.53. How would rats behave when their living conditions become too crowded? A) They eat a lot and become friendly to others.B) They sleep little and act quite peacefully.C) They eat little but sleep soundly.D) They become nervous and tend to be war-like.54. The passage suggests that overcrowded conditions ______.A) are directly related with populationB) may cause an increase in violenceC) may lead to high birth rateD) may bring about pollution problems Passage TwoMany people hope that the whole world will one day speak a common language. Over the Years, people have made up new languages with this aim. At least six hundred languages have been developed in the search for a language which all human beings would be able to speak. The most famous one, Esperanto ( 世界语) , was the idea of Ludwig Zamenhof, a doctor in Warsaw. He published a book about his new language in 1887.To encourage people to learn the Language, he made it as simple as possible. Esperanto has never been accepted as an official world language, but it has been suggested as an auxiliary language. By 1950 it had been taught to one and a half million speakers, and it was spoken in six hundred schools. Today Esperanto isspoken by about eight million people, and more than one hundred newspapers and magazines in the language are published regularly throughout the world. Thousands of books have been written in Esperanto, including those translated from other languages.Today the need for a new auxiliary language like Esperanto seems less obvious. Throughout this century English has grown more and more important. It has become a second language for many millions of people. The fact that more are learning English shows that the use of English is still growing worldwide. No one would deny the usefulness of world language, but not many people think that Esperanto is likely to play such a role. 55. Over the years, people have made up new languages in the hope that ______. A) all people will be able to speak a common languageB) people will learn a foreign language betterC) people can understand each other betterD) people will be able to speak several languages56. Zamenhof made the language as simple as possible because ______.A) he wanted people to learn it quicklyB) he hoped more and more people would be willing to learn itC) he wanted everyone to speak it without any difficultyD) he hoped it would be accepted as an official world language57. Which of the following is NOT true of English?A) It is widely taught in schools.B) It has become a second language for many millions of people.C) Many books have been written in English.D) It is less popular than Esperanto.58. What is the best title of the passage?A) The language made by one man.B) A talk about the world language.C) English as a second language for everyone.D) Esperanto—a better language than English.Passage ThreeAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had news to report: The damage and death toll could have been much worse.More than 60 people died in this earthquake. By comparison, an earthquake of similar intensity that shook America in 1988 claimed 25 ,000 victims.Injuries and deaths were relatively less in Los Angeles because the quake occurred at 4:31 a. m. on a holiday, when traffic was light on the city’s highways. In addition, changes made to the construction codes in Los Angeles during the last 20 years havestrengthened the city ’ s buildings and highways, making them more resistant to quakes.Despite the good news, civil engineers aren’t resting on their successes. Pinned to their drawing boards are blueprints for improved 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 wood, that bend without breaking. Later, people tried to lift a building off its foundation, and insert rubber and steel between the building and its foundation to reduce the impact of ground vibrations. The most recent designs give buildings brains as well as concrete and steel supports. Called smart buildings, the structures respond like living organisms to an earthquake’s 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 many lives and would be less likely to be damaged during earthquakes.59. One reason why the loss of lives in the Los Angeles earthquake was comparatively low was that ______.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 holidayD) improvements had been made in the construction of buildings and highways 60. The function of the computer mentioned in the passage is to ______. A) counterbalance an earthquake’s action on the buildingB) predict the coming of an earthquake with accuracyC) help strengthen the foundation of the buildingD) measure the impact of an earthquake’ s vibrations61. It can be inferred from the passage that in minimizing the damage caused by earthquakes attention should be focused on ______.A) the increasing use of rubber and steel in capital constructionB) the development of flexible building materialsC) the reduction of the impact of ground vibrationsD) early forecasts of earthquakes62. The main purpose of this passage is mostly to______.A) compare the consequences of the earthquakes that occurred in the U. S.B) encourage civil engineers to makeextensive use of computersC) outline the history of the development of quake - resistant building materialsD) report new developments in constructing quake - resistant building Section BDirections; Match the Chinese sentences in the left column with the English in the right column, mark the corresponding letter on the Answer with a single linePart IV Translation Section A Directions: Put the following sentences into Chinese.
