2022年湖南师范大学继续教育学院成人高考英语二答案一、英语二自考题,阅读选择(一)China’s Ministry of Culture announced the Fifth National List of Representative Elements of Intangible Cultural Heritage (非物质文化遗产) of China on Thursday, adding 185 items to the list, including the skills of making Luosifen.Luosifen, or river snail rice noodles, is a dish known for its special smell in the southern Chinese city of Liuzhou. Those who try it say they can never forget the magical taste. Combining the traditional food of the Han people with that of the Miao and Dong ethnic (民族的) groups, Luosifen is sour, spicy, salty, hot and even smelly after being boiled.Originating in Liuzhou in the 1970s, Luosifen served as an inexpensive street snack that people outside of the city knew little about. In 2012, Luosifen appeared in a hit Chinese food TV program, “A Bite of China”. After that it became a household name. And two years later, China had the first company to sell packaged Luosifen.The development of the Internet, especially the boom of e-commerce and online eating show, has brought this Chineselocal food passion to a new level. Luosifen often shows up in videos by food bloggers and eating show hosts. One of the most influential (有影响的) is Li Ziqi, who has 15.5 million viewers on YouTube. Her video of how to make Luosifen has gained millions of views on the website abroad.The development of the Internet allowed Luosifen to be well received. According to data from Tmall and Taobao, both e-commerce platforms under Alibaba, the turnover of Luosifen this whole year was 15 times more than that of last year’s, with the number of buyers growing 9 times year on year. The largest group of buyers was the post-90s generation.As Luosifen becomes more and more popular, the local government is trying to establish official international position of this unique fine food. Authorities in Liuzhou City have applied for UNESCO’s recognition of Luosifen as an intangible cultural heritage.1.What made Luosifen well known around China in 2012?A.Its unique taste.B.A TV programme.C.The online eating shows.D.Efforts from local government.2.What can be known about Li Ziqi’s video of Luosifen?A.It makes Li Ziqi an Internet star.B.It encourages more people to make videos.C.It helps Luosifen become known to the world.D.It attracts food bloggers to make Luosifen.3.The underlined part “turnover” in paragraph 5 probably refers to the amount of __________.A.salesB.viewsC.productionments4.In which part of a website may this text appear?A.Tour.cation.C.Culture.D.Advertisement.(二)China is one of the first countries to breed a medical culture. In comparison with Western methods, traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) adopts a vastly different approach. For thousands of years, Chinese people have accumulated rich experience in fighting all sorts of diseases, therefore forming a unique medical theory under the guidance of ancient Chinesephilosophies.The core behind TCM is that the human body's life is the consequence of the balance between yin and yang. Yang functions to safeguard us against outer harm, and yin is the inner base to store and provide energy. When the balance between the two aspects is disturbed, people fall ill.One of the traditional techniques of TCM, acupuncture (针刺疗法), means insertion of needles into superficial structures of the body - usually at acupoints (穴位) to restore the yin - yang balance. It is often accompanied by moxibustion(灸法), which involves burning the mugwort on or near the skin at an acupoint.The first known text that clearly talks about something like acupuncture and moxibustion as it is practiced today is Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon. It is the earliest and most important written work of TCM and is considered the most representative medical text in China.Acupuncture and moxibustion have aroused the interest of international medical science circles. And TCM is gradually gaining worldwide recognition. The WTO issued a document in 2002 that appealed to more than 180 countries to adopt TCM as an alternative in their medical policies. In 2010, acupunctureand moxibustion of traditional Chinese medicine were added to the Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity by the UNESCO. Presently, TCM has been back in the news for its effectiveness in improving the cure rate of COVID - 19 since its outbreak in January 2020.5.What does the underlined word “It” in Paragraph 3 refer to?A.TCM.B.Acupuncture.C.Yin - yang balance.D.Moxibustion.6.What can we learn about Yellow Emperor's Inner Canon from the text?A.It distinguishes acupuncture from moxibustion.B.It's a foundation of world medical research.C.It stresses the importance of using acupointsD.It greatly boosts the development of TCM.7.What is the writer's purpose of writing the passage?A.To introduce TCM to the world.B.To review the development of TCM.C.To tell TCM and Western medicine apart.D.To comment on TCM in fighting COVID-19.8.What might be talked about in the paragraph following the text?A.Why TCM gets recognition from WHO.B.Why TCM is gaining popularity.C.How TCM helps in the current situation.D.How other countries adopt TCM well.(三)With jeweled pins in her hair, a sweeping red silk dress hung over her gauze (薄纱) sleeves, Beijinger Xin Nan looks like she’s just stepped out of a dynasty hundreds of years in the past.Xin Nan is wearing Hanfu, or Han clothing, which has traditionally been the dress for a few enthusiasts on important Chinese holidays such as the Mid-autumn Festival and Lunar New Year. But these days, the Hanfu movement has grown to become a subculture seeking to bring back to life pre-Qing Dynasty clothing. The past few years have even seen Hanfu gain a degree of global recognition, finding its way onto the New York and Paris Fashion Week runways.Hanfu’s entry into modern life has been inspired by the popularity of historical dramas. It’s rated that China now has over three and a half million Hanfu enthusiasts as it isconsidered one of the most important embodiments (化身) of Chinese traditional culture.Today, it’s not uncommon to see a group of girls in these elegant flowing robes taking selfies. Dressed in her Tang-Dynasty-inspired outfit, Xin Nan explained,“Over the past few years, more and more people have been walking in the street, dressed in Hanfu, as if it were their everyday clothing.”Hanfu’s growing popularity is reflected in the expansion ofthe associated business. The number of Hanfu merchants on the e-commerce platform Taobao grew threefold (三倍) between 2015 and 2019. According to a report by iiMedia, in 2019, Hanfu sales in China were worth 4.52 billion yuan ($695 million).To Xin Nan, Hanfu is more than just a style of dress; rather, it’s a way of life. “I think Hanfu has a special charm. When I’m wearing it, I feel I’ve returned to that dynasty,” she said. She explained that it inspires her with a sense of elegance and grace. “The moment I put on Hanfu, that’s how I’ll behave.”9.Why is Xin Nan mentioned in the first paragraph?A.To introduce the topic.B.To describe a scene.C.To make a comparison.D.To clarify a question.10.What contributes to the popularity of Hanfu?A.The promotion of Hanfu merchants.B.The appearance in Paris Fashion Week.C.The development of the fashion industry.D.The influence of Chinese traditional culture.11.What can we learn from the last paragraph?A.Wearing Hanfu changes a person’s personality.B.Hanfu is a new style of dress for Chinese people.C.Wearing Hanfu inspires people to live differently.D.Hanfu makes people return to the previous dynasty.12.Which of the following is the best title for the text?A.The Benefits of Wearing HanfuB.The Way of Being Elegant in LifeC.The Expansion of Chinese EconomyD.The Rebirth of Chinese Traditional Hanfu二、阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Her most popular novel, “Pride and Prejudice”, described Elizabeth Bennett and her search for romance through a world of balls, dinners and endless social rules. Here the following helps you enter into Austen’s high society.1. Coming outGirls were treated as children until 18, when they “came out”. Parents took their daughters from their country homes to London. There, these young ladies from noble families were presented to the queen during the biggest ball of the season at Buckingham Palace. This was their official entrance into society. Afterwards, they attended balls, dinners and parties in London. The girls met the important people in London society and, especially, searched for a suitable husband.2. DancesFamilies of unmarried young women often hosted dances at their homes and invited others of the same social class—particularly single young men. At the dance, each eligible girl had a dance card. If a young man wanted to dance with a girl, he approached her and asked to sign her card. A proper girl did not dance with one man for more than three songs in a row.3. Paying callsDuring Au sten’s time, there were strict rules about how, when, and why to visit friends and neighbors. To express condolences over the death of a friend’s family member or offer congratulations for an award, a visitor was required to wait a week after the event before visiting. Meanwhile, a party guest must visit and thank the hostess within the week after attending a party. Guests would be considered rude if they waited for more than two weeks to visit. Visits were supposed to last only 20 minutes to half an hour.36. Which of the following indicates girls’ official entrance into society?________A) They were 18.B) Their parents took them from their country homes to London.C) They found a suitable husband.D) In the biggest ball of the season at Buckingham Palace, they were presented to the queen.37. What does the author probably mean by “eligible” in the third paragraph?________A) Suited. B) Qualified. C) Suitable. D) Appropriate.38. As a rule, when should a party guest visit and thank the hostess after attending aparty?________A) Within the week after the event. B) More than two weeks.C) Within two weeks. D) Any time that he or she likes.39. In the writer’s opinion, ________.A) the British people were friendlyB) the British social rules in high society were strictC) the British parents were strict with their daughtersD) the British girls were very practical40. What would be the most appropriate title for this passage?________A) Austen’s Time.B) The British People.C) Good Manners in High Society. D) Strict Social Rules.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.Halloween (October 31) is a holiday widely celebrated with different names in many countries. Although it originated as a religious holiday, it has lost its religious connections in the United States. It is now celebrated largely as a children’s day, and many American children look forward to it for days and weeks beforehand. The orange pumpkin is harvested at this time of year and is hollowed out, a funny face cut into it, and a candle placed inside as a decoration in the window. City folks, nowadays, sometimes use paper pumpkins for decorations.Some years ago, the holiday was celebrated by dressing up in strange and frightening costumes and playing tricks on one’s neighbors and friends, such as ringing doorbells, throwing bits of corn on the window panes, and in other ways making minor disturbances. More recently, children come to the door to have friends and neighbors admire their costumes and guess who they are behind the false faces and receive treats of candies, fruits or cookies. They say, “Trick or Treat”, which means “I will play a trick on you if you do not give me a treat.”This practice has even more recently developed into a significant international activity. Instead of candies, the children collect money for UNICEF (United Nations International Children’s Emergency Fund). This special collection of money by children for needy children throughout the world is known as “UNICEF Trick of Treat”. Although it has begun only recently, it results in several million dollars each year contributed to UNICEF. The collection box is orange, reminiscent of the pumpkin.41. In history, Halloween was once a ______ day.A) children’s B) national C) religious D) international42. Which of the following is mentioned about how children celebrated the holiday some yearsago?________A) Making up in peculiar and horrifying costumes.B) Playing jokes on neighbors or friends.C) Ringing door bells.D) All of the above.43. What kind of treats will children not receive on October 31?________A) Candies. B) Fruits. C) Cookies. D) Chocolates.44. Why do children collect money to celebrate the holiday?________A) They need pocket money.B) They can use the money to buy whatever they like.C) They can help those children who need money in the whole world.D) What they did in the past have bored them.45. From the passage, we know that ________.A) to some degree, Halloween has not been the American own holiday and its influence will be greaterand greaterB) Halloween will become the most important holiday for the American peopleC) more and more parents will take part in the celebration of this holidayD) it will be celebrated by all the people around the worldQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A., guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S., no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, which would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.46. The author’s main purpose of the passage is to ______.A) emphasize the importance of time in American social customsB) tell us time and tide waits for no manC) teach us how to get on well with the American peopleD) introduce the personal relationship among the American people47. Generally speaking, when is it proper for you to call someone?________A) Very early in the morning. B) After 11 p.m.C) Sleeping hours. D) Neither very early in the morning nor after 11 p.m. 48. According to the passage, the author of the article may agree that ________.A) it is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in AmericaB) it may be appropriate to send your invitation to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some culturesC) time means the same for all the people around the worldD) people can communicate each other very well if they live in the same culture49. If you live in America, you should pay attention to ______.A) the time of your making a phone callB) the time of your sending your invitation cardsC) the time of your meeting with someoneD) all of the above50. The word “attached” in the third sentence of the first paragraph means ________.A) clung B) stuck C) given D) provided四、Translation(4 point for each ,20 points in total)1、I’m afraid it won’t be possible, but thank you very much anyway.2、Please come whenever it is your convenience.3、I’m terribly sorry, but I have made other plans. Thanks anyway.4、Could you make it any other time?5、I was wondering if you might like t。

Following the Revolution, members of congress had hotly debated the question of a permanent home for themselves and for other departments. (1)In 1790, George Washington was asked to select a site for the newly designed federal district. Not much to anyone’s surprise but to the disappointment of many, he chose a piece of land on the banks of the Potomac River a few miles upstream from his beloved plantation Mount Vermont.The District of Columbia (Washington D.C.)was taken in part from Virginia and in part from Maryland. At the time it was laid out, its hundred square miles consisted of gently rolling hills with heavy woods, a number of streams and much land along the Potomac River. There is now a section of Washington that is commonly referred to as Foggy Bottom; that section had the same nickname a hundred and eight years ago. Two port cities, Alexandria and Georgetown, lied within sight of the new capital. So it was easy to go by ship to the most important cities of the new nation from the new capital-Charlestown, Baltimore, Philadelphia, New York, Portsmouth and also to the far-off ports of England and the European Continent.46. The main topic of the passage is__________.A. The governing of the U.S.B. the founding of Washington, D.C.C. the first years of the United States Congress.D. the role of Washington in the American Revolution.47. When George Washington chose the site for the capital, people __________.A. were very surprised.B. felt it quite naturalC.became quite angry.D. got very excited.48. Mount Vernon was__________.A. a port along the Potomac River.B. Part of the District of Columbia.C. Washington’s plantationD. part of Maryland.49. The District of Columbia __________.A. was the capital city of Virginia.B. was the capital city of Maryland.C. was the newly designed district for the U.S. capitalD. was far away from the Potomac River.50. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A.Georgetown lies in the inland of the U.S.B. Foggy Bottom is a new nickname for Washington D.C.C.New York was not considered important at the beginning of the US.D. Congress had very different opinions about the site of the new capitalPart IV Translation(10%)Directions: This part, number 51-60, is to test your ability to translate Chinese intoEnglish.

Many countries fought for the power and riches of the newly discovered Americas. Men introduced new ideas which demanded great changes in older ideas. Despite these problems and possibly because of them, wonderful things were done by the greatest of men.It is indeed difficult to know why in some periods you find many men of genius while in others you may find few. The "Age of Genius", however, produced some of the greatest thinkers, painters, authors, and scientists.In Italy during the High Renaissance (文艺复兴), a period of the "Age of Genius", three famous painters started their work. They were Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.Leonardo da Vinci is famous not only for his beautiful paintings but also for his talent in the sciences. One of his best - knownpainting is the "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was an artist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked with other forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂). Raphael was known for his painting. He made well-balanced pictures out of many different actions.

Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem(自尊心) is the basis of a goodmental health. A youngster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighter brothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and became so afraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But the criticism should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes(刹车). The parent who says “No” when other parents say “Yes” sends a double message. He is also saying : “I love you, and I’m ready to risk your anger, because I don’t want you to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information that they will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy(隐私权)and respect for their personal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a mother feels that she must read her daughter’s diary to know what is going on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means respecting elders, teachers, andthe law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towels(毛巾) from a hotel will think that itis all right to steal. A youngster who sees no laughter and no love in the home will have a difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give him his due, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.(15分)(1)According to the passage, parents owe their children the following things except______.(3分)A.carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. information about their body(2)The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because_________.(3分)A. they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB. there is no one to guide and discipline themC. they are afraid of being left aloneD. there is no one to ask for help when in trouble.(3)Which of the following ways is advised for parents to show loveto their children?(3分)A. Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask forB. Never embracing older childrenC. Refusing something to the childrenD. Never criticizing children(4)The word “due” in the last paragraph means_________.(3分)A. something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB. reasonable explanations or plansC. what must be given to someone because it is right or wrongD. the money to be paid(5) Which of the following is true according to the passage?(3分)A. Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own lives at an early age.B. Children learn much by seeing what their parents doC. Children shouldn’t be corrected because it destroys their self-esteem.D. It is better to compare a youngster to his bright brothers because it makes him try harder.3.Every artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well, but he wants it to be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual (视觉的)artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel that a certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions possible, is exceptionally interesting for them and worth showing to us. Without their work we should never have noticed these particular shapes and colors, or have felt the delight which they brought to the artist. Most artists take their shapes and colors from the world of nature and from human bodies in motion and repose; their choices indicate that these aspects of the world are worth looking at, that they contain beautiful sights. Contemporary artists might say that they merely(仅仅) choose subjects that provide an interesting pattern, that there is nothing more in it. Yet even they do not choose entirely without referenceto the character of their subjects. If one painter chooses to paint a gangrenous (生坏疽的) leg and another a lake in moonlight, each of them is directing our attention to a certain aspect of the world. Each painter is telling us something, showing us something, emphasizing something — all of which mean that, consciously or unconsciously, he is trying to teach us.(15分)(1)All artists are common in that _____.(3分)A. they use shapes and colors instead of wordsB. they are trying to teach the publicC. what they want to teach is difficult to explainD. they want to learn from the public(2) A painter chooses certain shapes and colors out of the countless billions possible because he believes they _____.(3分)A. are beautifulB. can bring delight to himC. are worth showing to the publicD. are particular(3) Contemporary artists choose subjects _____.(3分)A. without reference to the character of their subjectsB. that only provide an interesting patternC. that there is no meaning in itD. partly for the meaning of the subjects(4)Comparing the painter who paints a gangrenous leg with the one who paints a lake in moonlight,we can draw the conclusion that_____.(3分)A. both convey the same meaningB. both show certain aspects of the worldC. the latter is more meaningfulD. the former is more meaningful(5)According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?(3分)A. The public could share the artist’s feelings through their choice of shapes and colors.B. The painter should not choose to paint ugly things.C. Contemporary artists are completely different from other artists.D. All artists are teaching the public consciously.三、完形填空( 每题10分, 共1道小题, 总分值10分)1.Two friends visited the zoo together.

And 32 if a person is poor he doesn’t feel really poor when he has a car.There are three main reasons the car became so 33 in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move 34 in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. 35 a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never developed 36 and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been 37 common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is 38 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 39 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 40 time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.31-35BCDAC 36-40CDCAA31. A. role B. part C. effect D. basis32. A. ever B. still C. even D. quite33.

Research shows that getting plenty of exercise makes the heart beat faster and the lungs work harder. This 43 the heart, reduces the chance of heart attack, and helps 44 blood pressure. That’s why more and more people are becoming active in various kinds of sports and exercises. Every morning 45 people get up early and take much exercise. Some practice Tai Ji Quan and swordplay 46 others run, jog, walk or dance to music. In the afternoon, there are also many people keen down sports. Some play basketball or volleyball or table tennis, others 47 gymnastics or track events. Through sports and exercises, people become healthier and stronger.Medical researchers have proved that what people eat affects their health. They 48 people to eat more fruits and vegetables and less meat such as beef and pork because meat contains more fat than poultry and fish. Fat can build up in the arteries, block the flow of blood, and cause a heart attack or stroke.Getting rid of bad habits 49 smoking and drinking alcohol is also an important way to keep healthy. Smoking and drinking alcohol injure one’s health a great deal, and therefore should be given up.

Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the "Lusitania", which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly 1500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $300,000 or more. The ship, lying on the sea-bed has been bought by a man called John Light. He paid about $1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them.

Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)Directions:There are 4 passages in this section. 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.It is true that some couples spend every waking minute together. Others fill their hours with personal hobbies, outside interests and even part-time jobs, just to keep their distance from each other! "There should be private time and couple time," suggests Dr. Stephen, "You don't want your latter years to turn into a process where two people unite as one. If you hold too tightly to your partner, it's going to cause resentment and anger. If you're completely separate, you'll both be lonely and disconnected. You need balance. So you have to talk about how you'll achieve that."The right balance? It's different for every couple. "Having a conversationabout time can be difficult, but it's important for both partners to process those feelings out loud," Dr. Stephen says. "You should not be accusing and act as a judge—ask the difficult questions, but do it in a loving way. You could say something like, 'How are we going to be as individuals and how are we going to be as a couple?' "Barbara and Chris Christensen have achieved the balance that works for them. In addition to daily routines that keep them close—including about 10 minutes for a daily check-in and about a half hour of relaxation time —they each maintain separate interests and friendships."We have found that we need time apart," Barbara says. "I have a group of women friends that I have known for the last 30 years. We have dinner out once a month. We women also have parties and weekend or weeklong vacations as a group at a beach or somewhere. Chris, a former fighter pilot, has many aviation-oriented (航空的) groups and friends and also a poker-playing group. We have found it important to have separate time as well as together time."11. The author writes the passage to ______.A) offer some suggestions on how to spend the time after retirementB) advise couples to develop their separate hobbiesC) warn couples not to be accusing each otherD) give people some advice on how to entertain themselves after retirement12. The second paragraph is mainly intended to_______.A) warn the husband not to act as a judgeB) suggest couples have discussions about difficultiesC) suggest how to keep the correct balanceD) require couples to be considerate13. Dr. Stephen suggests that _________after retirement.A) couples s tay together all the timeB) couples express their feelings in a loving wayC) couples be separateD) wives make many friends14. It can be inferred that________.A) many couples are faced with problems after retirementB) America has a large population of retired peopleC) most people join various social groups after retirementD) playing poker is a popular activity among retired people15. Barbara and her friends do the following EXCEPT_______.A) having dinner regularlyB) holding partiesC) having weekly vacations at the beachD) having fun playing pokerPassage TwoQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.Elderly people respond best to a calm and unhurried environment. This is not always easy to provide as their behavior can sometimes be irritating. If they get excited or upset then they may become more difficult to look after. Although sometimes it can be extremely difficult, it is best to be patientand not to get upset yourself. You should always encourage old people to do as much as possible for themselves but be ready to lend a helping hand when necessary.Failing memory makes it difficult for the person to recall all the basic kinds of information we take for granted. The obvious way to help in this situation is to supply the information that is missing and help them make sense of what is going on. You must use every opportunity to provide information but remember to keep it simple and straightforward.“Good morning, Mum. This is Fiona, your daughter. It is eight o’clock, so if you get up now, we can have breakfast downstairs.”When the elderly makes confused statements . about going out to his or her old employment or visiting a dead relative, correct in a calm matter-of-fact fashion: “You don’t work in the office any more. You are retired now. Will you come and help me with the dishes?”We rely heavily on the information provided by signposts, clocks, calendars and newspapers. These assist us to organize and direct our behavior. Confused old people need these aids all the time to compensate for their poor memory. Encourage them to use reminder boards or diaries for important coming events and label the contents of different cupboards and drawers. Many other aids such as information cards, old photos, scrap books, and addresses or shopping list could help in individual case.16. Why can’t we sometimes keep calm in front of old people?A)Because old people sometimes annoy us.B)Because old people sometimes don’t understand us.C)Because we are sometimes in a bad mood.D)Because we are sometimes in a hurry.17. What does the author encourage us when we talk with old people?A) To do as little as possible.B) To do as much as they can.C) To help others when needed.D) To be patient and not get upset.18. How should we provide information to old people with failing memories?A) By being helpful.B) By being direct.C) By being sensitive.D) By being obvious.19. What is the purpose of information provided on such things as signposts?A) To help us organize and direct our behavior.B) To help us make use of newspapers.C) To help us correct other people.D) To help us understand statements.20. What is the main idea of the passage?A)What happens to old people with failing memory.B)How to help old people with failing memory.C)Why old people have poor memory.D)How to improve bad memory.Passage ThreeQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.It is often the case that when something goes wrong,it can be very satisfying to say,”Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.” or“I know I’m late,but it’s not my fault;the car broke down.” It is probably not your fault,but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation,you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happensto you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more regularly. Or, you might start to carry along with you the useful phone numbers, so you could call for help when in need. For another example, if your colleague causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on the person. You should accept that the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your colleague fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about—creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They are just better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fault it is.” Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping stop on for success.21. According to the passage, winners tend to _______.A) deal with problems rather than blame othersB) meet with fewer difficulties in their livesC) have responsible and able colleaguesD) blame themselves rather that othersword “remedy” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to “_______”.A) avoid B) acceptC) improve D) consider23. When your colleague brings about a problem, you should _______.A) find a better way to handle itB) blame him for his lack of responsibilityC) tell him to find the cause of the problemD) ask a more able colleague for help24. When problems occur, winners take them as _______A) excuses for their failuresB) barriers to greater powerC) challenges to their colleaguesD) chances for self-development25. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) A Winner’s Problem. B) A Winner’s Secret.C) A Winner’s Opportunity. D) A Winner’s Achievement. Passage FourQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.In order to go ahead, large companies need a way to reach the savings of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through the Stock Exchange. By doing so,they can put into circulation the savings of individuals and institutions, both at home and overseas.When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through astockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways, this country could not function. All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised though taxes alone. The Government, local authorities, and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to the Stock Exchange.There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another, this new money must come from the savings of the country. The Stock Exchange exists to providea channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance.26.Almost all companies involved in new production must ______.A) rely on their own financial resourcesB) persuade the banks to provide long-term loanC) borrow large sums of money from friends and people they knowD) depend on the population as a whole for finance27.The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projectsis ______.A) invested in different companies on the Stock ExchangeB) exchanged for part ownership in the Stock ExchangeC) raised by the selling of shares in the companiesD) repaid to its original owners as soon as possible28.When the savers want their money back, they ______.A) put their shares in the company back on the marketB) ask another company to obtain their money for themC) look for other people to borrow money fromD) transfer their money to a more successful company29.All the essential services on which we depend are ______.A) run by the Government or our local authoritiesB) in constant need of financial supportC) financed wholly by rates and taxesD) unable to provide for the needs of the population30.The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the government, local authoritiesand nationalized industries ______.A) to make everybody lend money to themB) to borrow as much money as they wishC) to make certain everybody saves moneyD) to raise money to finance new developmentsPart III Vocabulary and Structure (25 minutes) Directions:There are 25 incomplete sentences in this part.

For Chinese people, courtesy demands reciprocity (互惠), which means people who are well-mannered to others will receive kindness and favors. If they receive a gift, an invitation or hospitality treatment from someone, they will offer back to the one when it is suitable.
