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 orunfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You shoulddecide 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 offive and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it isan economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is "morallywrong". This statement has some support, as it is clear from research into vocabulary thatyoungsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families—adisadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words bythe 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 apartnership between the federal government and the states to expand it to every American child. Itlater became known that "every" meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% abovethe 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. Theevidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of9.to.l 1.year.olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attendedpre.school had better literacy (读写能力), language, maths and science skills. And two years ofpre.kindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect oncrime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out agovernment scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range ofservices including school.based early education.1.Kindergarten in rich countries other than America usually begins at the age of _______A. eightB. sevenC. sixD. four2.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 startkindergarten 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 on5.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Secondary EducationB. Pre.school EducationC. Poor Kids’EducationD. Rich Kids' EducationPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Humans may not have landed on Mars (火星) just yet, but that isn't shopping a European companyfrom devising a plan to send four people to the Red Planet within the next few years. (78) Thisproject, called Mars One, aims to send a small group of people to Mars in 2022 and eventuallyestablish a permanent colony on the planet."Everything we need to go to Mars exists," said Mars One co.founder Bas Lansdorp in March 2014."We have the rockets to send people to Mars, the equipment to land on Mars, the robots to preparethe settlement for humans. For a one.way mission, all the technology exists." Yet the fourastronauts (宇航员) chosen for the trip will be stuck on Mars—forever. And despite Mars One'sthorough planning, there are a number of challenges that may prevent the mission from ever takingplace. (79) The biggest road block could be the mission's huge cost ($6 billion). However, Lansdorpis confident that Mars One will be able to fund the project by selling the broadcast rights for themission and subsequent experiences living on the planet.Those broadcast rights will also play a part in helping to select the people who will be sent toMars. Lansdorp said the company will hold a selection process similar to a reality show. Lansdorp isexpecting at least 1 million applications from people around the world. In additon to the cost,several other potential problems could inhibit (阻止) the mission to Mars.“It’s even more challenging to send people there with life support, with food, with air, withall the other things like books, entertainment, means of communication and of providing for theirown resources for a long stay on Mars," said Adam Baker. senior lecturer in space engineering atKingston University in London. "The sheer size of the rockets you'd need to do this would beabsolutely colossal.”6. According to Project Mars One, humans could send four people to Mars within the next _______years.A. sevenB. eightC. tenD. six7.According to Bas Lansdorp, which of the following is NOT TRUE?A. For a one.way trip to Mars, all the technology exists.B. He could not come up with the fund for Mars One.C. We humans have the rockets to send people to Mars.D. We humans have the equipment to land on Mars.8.According to the passage, all the following statements are TRUE EXCEPT that _______.A. a competition process will be held to select the four astronautsB. the cost of Mars One could go as much as $6 billionC. if it goes as planned, we could expect to watch Mars One on TVD.the four astronauts could return to Earth after a few years’stay on Mars9. The word "colossal”in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to _______.A. very largeB. very smallC. mediumD. average10. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A. Ready for a Round Trip to MarsB. Ready for a Short Visit to MarsC. Ready for a One.way Trip to MarsD. Ready for a Walk on MarsPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:When the United States Congress created Yellowstone National Park in 1872, the goal was to setaside a place where Americans could enjoy the beauty of nature for years to come. Now, 142 yearslater, there are hundreds of national parks across the country, and technology is changing the waypeople experience them. Should park visitors be able to use cell phones, or should their use berestricted?"Connectivity presents a real challenge to all of us." Al Nash says. He is a public affairsofficer at Yellowstone National Park. He says cell phone service at Yellowstone is available inparts of the park with stores and campgrounds. This makes it easy for visitors to share photos oftheir trip on social networking sites and to stay in touch with friends and family members. (80) Ifa nark visitor is hurt or in danger, cell phones make it easier to get help. Some say the ability todownload applications that provide information about plants and animals in the park can enrich avisitor's experience.Others say cell phones disturb people's enjoyment of our national parks. In their view, cellphone towers are an eyesore, and they'd rather hear the sound of birds than the ring of an incomingcall. Can you imagine looking out a peaceful lake or field of grass only to be disturbed by a person shouting into their phone, "Can you hear me now?"Nash says Yellowstone tries to strike a balance. "Ultimately, our job is to let visitorsunderstand and enjoy nature better while protecting what people find special about Yellowstone, andone of those things that's special is the ability to get away from the hustle and bustle (喧嚣) of one's daily life."11.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Which U.S. National Park Has the Most Visitors?B. Should National Parks Allow the Use of Cell Phones?C. What Did Yellowstone Do to Enrich Park Visitors’Experience?D. Can Technology Transform the Way People Experience Nature?12.National parks were established _______.A. to show respect to former presidentsB. to raise public awareness about climate changeC. to preserve areas of natural beautyD. to create job opportunities13.According to the passage, which of the following statements about the cell phone service atYellowstone is TRUE?A. It is limited to certain areas in the park.B. It is available everywhere in the park.C. It is not available in the park.D. It is available to visitors at a fee.14.The word "eyesore" in the third paragraph probably means _______.A. something unpleasant to look atB. something harmful to healthC. beautiful sceneD. serious threat15.What's the position of Yellowstone on cell phone use?A. Supportive.B. Neutral.C. Negative.D. Doubtful.Part V Translation (20%)Section ADirections: In this part there are Jive sentences which you should translate into Chinese.

Each choice in the word bank isidentified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in thebank more than once.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.As a working mom with a half-time job, two kids and a busy social life, I spend a lot of time in the car. The minivan is truly our ―home away from home.‖ In the car we eat meals, do homework, make phone calls, watch movi es and even change clothes. Last year I read about a prototype ―car of the future‖ 1with a microwave and laundry 2 , and wondered how soon I could acquire one. Last month, however, I asked myself a different question: how could we 3 our dependence on the minivan we already own?I challenged the kids to join me in a quest to see how long we could go between tanks of gas. They were 4enthusiastic. Right away we realized that while we’ve always carpooled on the way to school, we’ve never done so on the way ho me. When I asked my friend if she’d like to carpool in both 5from now on, she 6 said yes. One small step.Next up: I told the kids I was no longer providing car rides to swim practice. Yes, I’d still take them, but from now on it would be on foot or b ike. I 7 that each round trip to the pool was costing 50 cents, and we often make two to three trips per day. Although their bikes were 8 and ready for use, mine was dusty, and I had lost my helmet years ago. So I borrowed an 9 helmet from my husband, and off we went. Added benefits: quality time with the kids, plus a 10 workout.Key: 1-5C G J A D 6-10 I H E F BPassage TwoQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.We are what we eat because what we eat every day has a great impact on our health. Therefore, we should make every 1 to change our bad eating habits. As we all know, baked or fried food may be 2 , but eating too much of them will 3 result in some illnesses. Moreover, some food that costs us a great deal of money and is not 4 is junk food.Compared with people in the West, Chinese people used to eat more grain and vegetables, but less meat, which is a good 5 habit. However, things are 6different now. With rapid economic 7 of our country, we now also are eating a lot of food that is high in sugar and fat. We are running the risk of eating out without8 the balance of our diet.The food we choose 9 our health, so we must keep it in mind that thefood we choose should give us the 10 we need.Key: 1-5 I E C J A 6-10 F D H B GPassage ThreeQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.A strong work ethic is key in standing out among other employees. Read on for tips on 1 your work ethic. Show interest.Your employer wants to see that you are 2 interested in the job. You can show your 3 to your jobandcareerbyaskingquestions, showing enthusiasm, and staying focused.―Don’t appear 4 ,‖ advises MoniqueSudikoff,avicepresident forthe Nielsen Company in Westport, Conn.She has watched 5 workers in her market research firm fall asleep in meetings or 6 atcellphonesduringtrainingsessions.She even noticed one new employee checking her hairinhercomputerscreenwhilean experiencedco-workerwas 7 an important concept.Offer respect. One thing you can’t 8 in the workplace is respect.It’s9 toshow othersthat yourespectthem.Thatmayinvolve something as simple as speaking 10 or as challenging as recognizing the value of opinions that differ from your own.Key: 1-5H D A E J 6-10 BGFCIPassage FourQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Work and play do not contradict each other; in fact, they complement each other. As the saying goes, ―All work and no play 1 Jack a dull boy.‖ A life burdened 2 work leads you nowhere, for you would get tired and 3 with your daily routine work. On the other hand, proper 4 will relieve the tension and discomfort of our monotonous（单调的）life because it offers you 5 ways to let out your pent-up emotions.What I usually do to 6 after school is jogging and watching 7. Usually I don’t 8 time for exercise, but I value the physical education class at school. Jogging several rounds in the field 9 relieves the day’s pressure. On weekends, I’ll catch the morning movie for my visual enjoyment. I feel revived and 10 for another week’s work-load.Key: 1-5 D H J A I 6-10 GCEBFPassage FiveQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Nowadays, we have to meet many challenges 1 in our life or in study. Sometimes we win and sometimes we 2 . On one hand, some people tend to think that they have no 3 to do things when they fail at first attempt. They become 4 and unconfident. On the other hand, some hold the view that without failure, they will never succeed. They keep 5 until they succeed.As far as I am 6 , I prefer the positive and optimistic attitude towards failure. There is an old saying ―Failure is the mother of success‖. Many stories of 7 and inventors such as Edison can prove this. Edison who had invented bulbs had failed more than one thousand times. He still didn’t lose heart, but learned 8 failure and got final success. Therefore, if we don’t 9 mistakes, we’ll never get further progress. Failure always goes before success. In a word, life isn’t always 10 . Success beckons on those who persist and learn from failure.Key: 1-5CIGEF6-10ADJBHPassage SixQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Friendship is one of the greatest pleasures that people can enjoy. It is very difficult to find a better 1 of friendship. A true friend does indeed find pleasure in our joy and 2 sorrow in our grief. Knowing how valuable friendship is, we should be very 3in our choice of a friend. We must choose4who has a good character and shows kindness. We should 5 those shallow people who are easily changed by adversities or 6 . A true friend can always be trusted, 7 and respected. If you tell a friend your 8 , he or she won’t tell anyone else. Friends share each other’s joys and sorrows. They help 9 other when they are in trouble, and cheer each other up when they are sad. The 10 important thing is that a friend always understands you. In conclusion, when you have made a good friend, don’t forget him or her.Key: 1-5EHAID6-10 JFBCGPassage SevenQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.―If you’re not in a position where your strongest skills are 1, you’re not likely to 2 ,‖ explains Martin. ―You may be a 3 person but still feel you’re in the wrong position at 4 or even the wrong career — and you may be right. Your 5 is hard-wired to function a specific way.‖Martin and some other researchers 6 that certain ―executive skills‖ can 7 help you determine the right career direction. Executive skills are the cognitive skills that determine how well you 8a task. High-performers in different fields are 9 with different strengths in their executive skill sets. So if you know your 10, you can learn to work them too.Key: 1-5 HGBDC6-10 AJFEIPassage EightQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Now Zac is ready to find his nextadventure. ―I don’t like1 still,‖he says. He 2 with a talent agency.

He’ll also continue to get his8 out to other teens:‖ Do what people don’t9 Break the mold. Get out there and give it all you’ve got. If it does n’t happen, at 10 you know you tried..Key: 1-5 DFAIJ6-10 EGBHCPassage NineQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.Children identify 1 a parent when they believe they have the qualities and feelings that are 2 of that parent. The things parents do and say—and the 3 they do and say to them—therefore strongly influence a child's 4 .However, parents must consistently behave like the type of 5 they want their child to become.A parent's actions 6 affect the selfimagethat a child forms7 identification. Children who see mainly positive qualities in their 8will likely learn to see themselves in a positive way.Children who observe chiefly 9qualities in their parents will have difficulty 10 positive qualities in themselves.Key: 1-5 C J F G I6-10 H D B E APassage TenQuestions 1 to 10 are based on the following passage.English learning is made up of a series of stages, each a shorter 1 in that longer one called language fluency. So here we are, 2 in class again, ready to set out on our next learning phase. As we learned in the 3 , all this is about more than just the learning of English as a 4 language. We will continue to 5 our horizons and extend our explorations along the way. It’sgoing to be a productive journey, one that likely will be 6 of your career path.As we go along, you’ll find so much to learn; an especially 7 topic coming up soon is about people’s emotional quotient, or EQ for short. While moving forward, it’s wise to keep an ear open for 8 and/or suggestions from successful people in the real world. Such pieces of advice can be helpful reminders that lead to self-improvement on your path to 9 ; more importantly, they can help prevent you from making careless 10 .Key: 1-5 F A D I G 6-10 B C J H EPassage ElevenOnce upon a time, a businessman named Ray Kroc discovered a restaurant owned by two brothers. The restaurant 1 just four things: hamburgers, French fries, milk shakes and coca-cola. But it was clean and 2 , and the service was quick. Mr. Kroc liked it so much that he 3 the brothers so that he could use their idea and their name: McDonald’s.Mr. Kroc opened his first McDonald’s in 1955. Four years later, there were 100 of them. Then, Mr. Kroc put signs saying how many millions of McDonald’s hamburgers people had 4 . In just four years, the 5 was one hundred millions. Now, there are more than 13,000 McDonald’s restaurants from Dallas to Paris and from Moscow to Beijing.Anyone who wants to open a McDonald’s must first work in one for aweek. Then, they do a 6 training program, in the restaurants and at ―McDonald’s University‖in Chicago. There they learn the McDonald’s philosophy: quality control, service, cleanliness and cheap prices. McDonald’s has 7 rules. Hamburger must be served before they are ten minutes old, and French fries, seven.McDonald’s has never 8 looking for new methods to attract 9 , from drive-in window to birthday parties. Chicken, fish, salad and, in some places, pizza are now on the 10 . McDonald’s in Holland even sells a vegetarian burger.Keys: 1-5 J F E C B6-10 D G A I HPassage TwelveWe often hear people 1 about a generation gap. The name is new, but the idea is old. Young people and their parents don’t understand each other. The world has always 2 changing. During the second century after Christ a wise man said, ―Bury me on my face because in a little while everything will be turned upside down.‖There has always been a gap between generations, but more people talk about it now. Old Mr. Ellis thinks he 3 what has happened.―When I was a boy, I 4 the world was a beautiful place. My life was very pleasant. But when I was older, I learned about people who were treated 5 , people who didn’t have enough to eat. I wanted to help them, and I 6 a girl who wanted to help them, too. We went to meetings and talked a lot, but it didn’t seem to make much difference. ‖―Our children grew 7 in a world at war. They didn’t know when the fighting would stop. They wanted their children to have 8 clothes and toys. They didn’t want to think about the future. They thought nothing could be done about it.‖―Now I have grandchildren, and they have their own ideas. They are trying to 9 the world better. They are trying to help other people. They’re making people listen to them. I am 10 of their generation.‖Keys: 1-5 H J B G I6-10 C A D F EPart IIIWriting (15%)Topic One:Directions:For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay entitled Attend Your Classes Regularly.You should write at least 120wordsbut nomore than 150words following the outline given below.1. 现在大学校园里，迟到、早退、旷课是常见的现象；2. 保证学生的出勤率对大学教育的重要性；3. 作为一个大学生应该怎样做。

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Nisaburo and Hiroko Ohata are unlike most Japanese couples their age. Sure, Hiroko, 58, is worried about her husband´ s high blood pressure, while Nisaburo, 60, promises his wife that if she loses 18 pounds they´ 11 take a trip abroad. What makes the Ohatas different is how they met, through a matchmaking organization for single seniors. "On the second date, he asked if I wanted to meet his family," says Hiroko. "I took that as a proposal. " A little rushed, perhaps, but 17 years after his wife´s death, Nisaburo knew he´d found a new wife. The couple just celebrated four years of marital happiness last month.In the past, people like Nisaburo and Hiroko might have chosen to live out their lives alone. But as Japan´ s society ages, attitudes about love and remarriage late in life are changing. In 2006, according to government data, three times more men and nearly five times more women in their 60s and 70s married for at least the second time, compared with 20 years before.Granted, change is slow. For this silver-haired population, the concept of "dating" is still masked by the term ocha nomi tomodachi(friends having tea together). And older people often need help meeting prospective mates. That´ s where specialized matchmaking services such as Ai Senior—"Love Senior" —come in. When Shunichi Ikeda started the online service three years ago, he was surprised by how many visits he was getting from people in their 60s.Ikeda says that his clients have an "American perspective" about the dating scene. And their children are often very supportive, sometimes being the ones to register parents. "More older people are realizing that life is supposed to be enjoyable—not lonely," says Ikeda. About 17% of the matchmaking clients in Japan are over 50 years old, according to Ai Senior, and seniors´market share has more than doubled over the past three years." For older, single men, even doing laundry or cooking is difficult," says Ikeda. " They want to live with a woman. Likewise, it can be boring for women living alone.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. When you become a parent, much of your focus shifts from your own future to your kids´ future. But one of the most effective ways to help your children learn to dream big is to ensure that your own dreams don´t get pushed aside by everyday demands.Our everyday experiences provide learning opportunities. When you tap into them, you create a lifelong learning habit that will always keep you growing. Even your most disappointing experiences can be turned into breakthroughs.Every dream begins in the imagination. Take a few minutes to sit down with a notebook and think about where you would like to be in 20 years. Write down details about all aspects of your ideal life. Feel free to imagine. Don´t worry about whether you know how to get there now—you have 20 years to figure that out. You can also start by picking a year in the future and making acollection of things you´ d like in your life by then. Check in on it from time to time to see where you´ ve made progress.We´ re often encouraged to work on our weaknesses, but working on your strengths is easier and creates better results. For help of identifying them, ask some friends, or colleagues to write down what they most appreciate about you. They´ll enjoy doing this, and you´ 11 feel great when you read the responses. Once you know your strengths, you can put them to work to help you achieve your dreams.Confidence is the foundation for all your other abilities.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Commercial classical music radio in North America has changed dramatically over the past decade. The number of stations has shrunk very rapidly—many operators dropped the format in favor of something more profitable, like pop or rock, with their crazy youthful audience. But the availability of satellite radio, Internet streaming and digital technologies has introduced new options for classical fans.In the city of Toronto, a familiar media player entered the tray last year: Moses Znaimer, 65, the famous brave television pioneer who was the driving force behind Toronto´ s CITY-TV. Eleven months ago, he took ownership of Classical 96.3 FM, Canada´s first and largest commercial classical station, which " re-launched" this month with some new on-air hosts, a totally new schedule, and more attention to singing art and less to full-length symphonies.The popular station airs selections(usually no more than 10 to 15 minutes long)of greatest-hits classical works, 24 hours a day. This usually means single movements of larger works and other pieces, with commercial ads in between. The station may never be the preferred destination of highbrow classical fans, who seek full-length symphonies and operas. But this doesn´ t seem to trouble Znaimer, who says of his main competitor, CBC Radio Two: "They play classical, and they do it well when they do it, but they don´ t do it all the time, and they´ re doing it less and less. "Marilyn Gilbert, a Toronto artist manager, also makes a comparison to Canada´s national broadcaster when she praises Znaimer´s station: "Classical 96.3 FM is very important for the community and the country, especially in view of the changes that are going on at CBC. "Znaimer is best-known for his influential work in television, but he was also one of the creators of Cross Country Checkup, the longest-running show on CBC Radio. Today he calls Classical 96.3 FM "arguably the most successful of all classical music stations on the continent. At about 800,000 listeners per week, we are larger even than the New York Times classical station[WQXR-FM]. " And under his excellent and creative leadership, the sound of the station has become livelier.第56题Many operators have dropped commercial classical radio in order to______.A.make more profitsB.promote pop musice new technologyD.attract classical fans第57题From the text we learn that Moses Znaimer wanted to______.A.consolidate his position at Classical 96. 3 FMB.acquaint classical fans with some new radio stationsC.help expand Toronto´ s CITY-TV into a bigger businessD.make Classical 96.3 FM more satisfying to classical fans第58题It can be inferred that Classical 96. 3 FM makes money by _A.attracting and broadcasting commercialsB.showing carefully selected programspeting with CBC Radio TwoD.pleasing highbrow classical fans第59题Marilyn Gilbert believes Classical 96. 3 FM______.A.encourages people to learn classical musicB.introduces a new idea to broadcasting reformC.matters a lot to the community and the countryD.causes CBC to change its way of program arrangement第60题The success of Classical 96. 3 FM lies in the fact that_____A.it has reformed its traditional program styleB.it is more diverse than WQXR-FM in New YorkC.it has attracted audiences of different age groupsD.it is the biggest broadcasting station on the continent上一题下一题(61~65/共5题)ComprehensionDirections:Read the texts from a magazine article in which five people talk about tipping in a restaurant. For questions 36-40, match the name of each person to one of the statements (A-G) given below. Laura:I think that I have to agree with you. The idea to surround yourself with good and successful people still rings true. The electronic age may aid contact and communication. However, it does not substitute for looking someone in the eye. One has to have that person-to-person feel to instinctively grasp inner character. I´ m sure that a combination of the two types of interaction will lend flavor to the future.Mike:I naturally tend to prefer face-to-face relationship building. However, having friends and business acquaintances all over the world, I find that tools such as Linkedln are quite useful. Both enable me to maintain old connections and make new connections with people I find I have something in common with. Learning how to use these vehicles is the key. I think we are presently in the process of doing just that.Nick:Just like what you have already mentioned, there is obviously a big difference between how people meet and interact on the net and in real world. What the network world offers is a more relaxed, fun, expressive place to be. I like social networking particularly because it offers me a chance to make a lot of friends. That social networking sites do not build long-lasting relationships is just a misconception.Linda:It is all about a combination of various networking sites, and, if you want to do business, just a few e-mail exchanges. That´ s how I get to know my clients. Face-to-face networking is not always possible for me. I have clients around the globe ,99% of whom I´ ve never met in person. People who oppose social-networking sites don´ t understand the real changes that have taken place in the last decade.Helen:Sure enough, social networks are used to reconnect with friends. But they are also a tool for getting your business recognized. They are great places to place ads or comments about your business, because they are open to the public to view. It can be used as a way to network with would-be consumers. It is a perfect way to promote your business to the widest range of people globally.Now match the name of each person(61 to 65)to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements[A]I do not think that online friendships are short-lived.[B]Networking can make your companies better known.[C]I doubt if people could use networking vehicles properly.[D]To benefit from networking, you should learn how to use it.[E]To understand people better, you have to meet them in person.[F]Social networking reflects the new demands of the changing time.[G]In my opinion, networking has more disadvantages than advantages.第61题Laura _______第62题Mike ________第63题Nick _________第64题Linda ________第65题Helen ________上一题下一题(1/1)WritingDirections:You should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on your ANSWER SHEET.Part A第66题You want to invite John Smith, your former English teacher, to attend a reunion party of your class.Write an email to him,1)telling him the purpose of the party, time and place of the party, etc. ;2)expressing your wish for his accepting the invitation.You should write approximately 100 words.

Reading comprehensionPassage OneFlorence Nightingale was the daughter of a rich family in England. Her parents wanted her to become a person of high social class, but Florence had other plans.By the time she was 12, she was determined to “do something worthwhile(值得做的)”. She liked bo oks. She enjoyed caring for the sick farmers. Once she even saved the life of an old farmer’s dog that had broken its leg.At the age of 16, she began to read a lot of nursing(护理) books she had bought. She visited hospitals in Landon and other places.Her parents didn’t want her to work in those “dirty” hospitals, but she was determined. She finally left home and went for Kaiserwerth Hospital in Germany (德国) to study.She was an excellent student, and after her graduation, she returned to London and got a job running a hospital.During the Crimean War(克里米亚战争), she was put in charge of(负责) nursing. She went to the battlefield(战场) with 38 nurses. The hospital was a huge, dirty building. She got men to clean it up and managed to get the supplies(供给) they needed.She carried a lamp as she walked the halls of the battlefield hospital and became known as the “lady with the lamp.”She saved thousands of lives. People called her an angle(天使) in the hospital, but she herself became ill with a disease she got there.In her later years she was not able to travel, but people came to her from all over the world for her advice.(意见)During the Civil War(美国南北战争), the United States asked her advice about setting up military hospitals.She became known as the founder of modern nursing.56. Nightingale’s parents wanted her to____________.A. become a rich personB. do something worthwhileC. enter the upper class(上层社会)D. study medicine57.

Nightingale is known for her achievement in ___________.A. running hospitalsB. establishing modern nursingC. building military hospitalsD. saving thousands of livesPassage TwoSpending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线). But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer. “What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity) increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to th e antenna,” said Dr. Nora V olkow ofthe NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET. Text 1 Nisaburo and Hiroko Ohata are unlike most Japanese couples their age. Sure,Hiroko,58, is worried about her husband' s high blood pressure, while Nisaburo,60, promises his wife that if she loses 18 pounds they' 11 take a trip abroad. What makes the Ohatas different is how they met, through a matchmaking organization for single seniors. " On the second date, he asked if I wanted to meet his family," says Hiroko. "I took that as a proposal. " A little rushed, perhaps, but 17years after his wife' s death, Nisaburo knew he' d found a new wife. The couple just celebrated four years of marital happiness last month. In the past, people like Nisaburo and Hiroko might have chosen to live out their lives alone. But as Japan' s society ages, attitudes about love and remarriage late in life are changing. In 2006,according to government data, three times more men and nearly five times more women in their 60sand 70s married for at least the second time, compared with 20 years before. Granted, change is slow. For this silver-haired population, the concept of "dating" is still masked by the term ocha nomi tomodachi (friends having tea together). And older people often need help meeting prospective mates. That' s where specialized matchmaking services such as Ai Senior--" Love Senior"--come in. When Shunichi lkeda started the online service three years ago, he was surprised by how many visits he was getting from people in their 60s. Ikeda says that his clients have an "American perspective" about the dating scene. And their children are often very supportive, sometimes being the ones to register parents. "More older people are realizing that life is supposed to be enjoyable--not lonely," says Ikeda. About 17% of the matchmaking clients in Japan are over 50 years old, according to Ai Senior, and seniors' market share has more than doubled over the past three years. "For older, single men, even doing laundry or cooking is difficult," says Ikeda. "They want to live with a woman. Likewise, it can be boring for women living alone. They want to provide for someone. " 46. According to the writer, the Ohatas are different from most senior Japanese couples in that______ [A] they remarried with the help of an agency[B] they decided to marry on the second date[C] the husband suffers from a health problem[D] the wife is concerned about losing weight 47. As is implied in the text, Nisaburo' s proposal on the second date might be considered______ [A] typical of single seniors [B] irresponsible to his family [C] a surprise to the woman [D] a decision made in haste 48. In Japan, the change in attitudes about remarriage results from an increase in [A] its population [B] single women______ [C] senior people [D] the divorced 49. According to Ai Senior, the matchmaking clients in Japan______ [A] admire the American lifestyle [B] are mostly under 50 years of age [C] share a vague term for "dating" [D] doubled over the past three years 50. According to Ikeda, more single seniors remarry in order to______ [A] live a longer life [B] solve financial problems [ C ] make their life enjoyable [ D ] support their children together Text 2 When you become a parent, much of your focus shifts from your own future to your kids' future. But one of the most effective ways to help your children learn to dream big is to ensure that your own dreams don' t get pushed aside by everyday demands. Our everyday experiences provide learning opportunities. When you tap into them, you create a lifelong learning habit that will always keep you growing. Even your most disappointing experiences can be turned into breakthroughs. Every dream begins in the imagination. Take a few minutes to sit down with a notebook and think about where you would like to be in 20 years. Write down details about all aspects of your ideal life. Feel free to imagine. Don' t worry about whether you know how to get there now—you have 20 years to figure that out. You can also start by picking a year in the future and making a collection of things you' d like in your life by then. Check in on it from time to time to see where you've made progress. We're often encouraged to work on our weaknesses, but working on your strengths is easier and creates better results. For help of identifying them, ask some friends, or colleagues to write down what they most appreciate about you. They' ll enjoy doing this, and you' 11 feel great when you read the responses. Once you know your strengths, you can put them to work to help you achieve your dreams. Confidence is the foundation for all your other abilities. "Progress, notperfection" is a great saying to keep your confidence high. Every night, write down five achievements that happened that day. Big or small, it doesn' t matter. If proper, add ideas for further progress and actions you can take to get started. Find ways to add what you love to do to your life now. This will give you more energy and keep you connected with your bigger dreams. Making a list of old hobbies is a great way to restore your old passions. Things you' re enthusiastic about come with their own store of energy. Connecting with them can give you a push when you most need it. 51. In order to help your children to dream big you must______ [ A] fulfill everyday tasks [ B ] build your own career [C] keep your own dreams [ D] make them look ahead 52. The writer suggests that, to begin your big dream, you should______ [A] stretch your imagination [ B ] have a best-laid plan for 20 years [ C ] recollect all your likes and dislikes [D] engage yourself in lifelong learning 53. According to the writer, to achieve our dreams, we should______ [ A] work on our strengths [ B ] develop our creativity [ C ] identify our weaknesses [ D ] seek advice from friends 54. To keep high confidence, it is important for one to______ [ A ] take appropriate actions [ B ] notice his daily progress [ C ] try his best in everything [ D ] form new ideas every day 55. The writer thinks that one can hold fast to his dream by______ [ A ] listing the details of his ideal life [B] improving some of his old hobbies[C ] adding new ideas to his old dreams [ D ] energizing himself with old passions答案 第一部分听力(略) 第二部分英语知识运用 参考译文 如今，美国家庭对于电视基本上存在着两种对立的态度。

For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) andD). You should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on theAnswer Sheet.注意：此部分试题请在答题卡上作答。
Passage OneQuestions 44 to 48 are based on the following passage.Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were all brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above all the insects.I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning theSFLEP New College English Achievement Test (Band 2) 3midnight oil while reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle (谜), because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist: one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist requires not only self-discipline but all training, determination and a goal. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.44. The first paragraph tells us that the author ________.A) was born to a naturalist’s familyB) lost his hearing when he was a childC) didn’t like his broth ers and sistersD) was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood45. The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because ________.A) he didn’t live very long with themB) he was fully occupied with observing natureC) he was too young when he lived with themD) the family was extremely large46. It can be inferred from the passage that the author was ________.A) no more than a born naturalistB) a naturalist but not a scientistC) a scientist as well as a naturalistD) first of all a scientist47. The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he________.A) lacks some of the qualities required of a scientistB) has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticC) just reads about other people’s o bservations and discoveriesD) comes up with solutions in a most natural way48. According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be ________.A) full of ambitionB) full of enthusiasmC) knowledgeableD) self-disciplinedPassage TwoQuestions 49 to 53 are based on the following passage.We find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in4 外教社®全新版大学英语2级学业测试streaming (把…按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyze and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.49. In the passage the author’s attitude towards “mixed-ability teaching” is ________.A) criticalB) questioningC) approvingD) objective50. By “held back” (Line 1) the author means “________”.A) made to remain in the same classesB) forced to study in the lower classesC) drawn to their studiesD) prevented from advancing51. The author argues that a teacher’s chief concern should be the development of the student’s________.A) personal qualities and social skillsB) total personalityC) learning ability and communicative skillsD) intellectual ability52. Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED in the third paragraph?A) Group work gives pupils the opportunity to learn to work together with each other.B) Pupils also learn to develop their reasoning abilities.C) Group work provides pupils with the opportunity to learn to be capable organizers.D) Pupils also learn how to participate in teaching activities.53. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to ________.A) argue for teaching bright and not-so-bright pupils in the same classSFLEP New College English Achievement Test (Band 2) 5B) recommend pair work and group work for classroom activitiesC) offer advice on the proper use of the libraryD) emphasize the importance of appropriate formal classroom teachingSection B (10%)Directions: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it.

Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.(1)、Which of the following statements is NOT true?_________A：People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B：People who work in London prefer to live in the country.C：Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D：Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city. (2)、With the same money ________, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A：getting a small flat with a garden B：having a small flat with a garden C：renting a small flat without a garden D：buying a small flat without a garden (3)、When the garden is in blossom, it means that one ________ has been rewarded. A：living in the country B：having spent time working in the gardenC：having a garden of his own D：having been digging, planting and watering(4)、People who think happiness lies in the town would feel that _______ if they had to live outside London.A：their life was meaningless B：their life was invaluableC：they didn't deserve a happy life D：they were not worthy of their happy life (5)、The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to ________. A：deal with B：do away withC：escape from D：prevent from2、A story is told about a soldier who was finally coming home after having fought in Vietnam. He called his parents from San Francisco. "Mom and Dad, I'm coming home, but I've a favor to ask. I have a friend. I'd like to bring him home with me.""Sure," they replied, "we'd love to meet him.""There's something you should know," the son continued, "he was injured pretty badly in the fighting. He stepped on a land mine（地雷）and lost an arm and a leg. He has nowhere else to go, and I want him to live with us.""We're sorry to hear that, son. But, maybe we can help him find somewhere to live.""No, Mom and Dad, I want him to live with us.""Son," said the father, "you don't know what you're asking. Someone with such a handicap would be a terrible burden to us. We have our own lives to live, and we can't let something like this interfere with our lives. I think you should just come home and forget about this guy. He'll find a way to live on his own."At that point, the son hung up the phone. The parents heard nothing more from him. A few days later, however, they received a call from the San Francisco police. Their son had died after falling from a building. The police believed he had killed himself.The grief-stricken（悲痛欲绝的）parents flew to San Francisco and were taken to the city morgue（太平间）to identify the body of their son.
