Let's have a look at some of them and see if you agree that they deserve to be more successful.The Australians had a great idea to stop people from drinking and driving. The idea was that if a driver wanted to start the car, she or he would have to blow into a bag first. If there was too much alcohol in their breath, the car wouldn't start. It sounds like a great idea to me, but people said that they might need to drive the car in an emergency even if they had drunk too muchalcohol. Another idea I liked was an invention by a scientist who thought his children watched too much TV. He linked the TV to an exercise bike so that the electricity to power the TV was generated by the bike. If the children wanted to watch a lot of TV, they had to ride very hard. I found another invention on the Internet was designed to encourage good habits. Believe it or not, this invention was an ashtray which spoke to you when you lit a cigarette! The ‘voice’ of the ashtray was activated by the heat from the cigarette and reminded you how dangerous it is to smoke.One of the strangest inventions I have come across is a bicycle which can cross rivers! The idea was that when you came to a river, you could inflate(使充气) a huge plastic ball all around the bike. You would then get into the ball which would float on the river while you rode the bike inside the ball! One thing I would like is a baseball cap with a built-in radio so you can listen to sports programs all day with your hands free. While we are on the subject of sport, the Americans invented a kind of robot for sports fans. If you were watching your team on TV on your own, you could press a button and the robot would do ‘high fives’ with you! Fantastic! I wonder if you have any brilliant ideas for inventions like these.1.The purpose of blowing into a bag before driving is to . ( )A.prevent people from drinking and drivingB.help people start the car quicklyC.encourage people to drink more alcoholD.let people drive in an emergency2.The underlined word “generated” in Paragraph 2 most probably means “”.( )A.storedB.producedC.inventedD.transported ball3.There are inventions mentioned in this passage. ( )A.fourB.fiveC.sixD.seven4.Which of the following can be the best title of this passage? ( )A.Inventions with a DifferenceB.Different Kinds of New RobotsC.Brilliant Ideas for MachinesD.Stop Drinking and DrivingPassage 2 [2022·原创]Tower BridgeLocation: London, EnglandCompletion Date: 1894Length: 880 feetType: Movable (bascule),suspensionPurpose: RoadwayMaterials: Steel, masonryEngineer(s): Sir Horace Jones, Sir John Wolfe-BarryBy the end of the 19th century, the city of London had outgrown itself. Thousands of cars and people depended on a single bridge—the London Bridge—to travel in and out of the capital cityeach day. The traffic was heavy. So Londoners expected the completion of a new bridge across the Thames, the Tower Bridge, designed by Sir Horace Jones and engineered by Sir John Wolfe-Barry.The new bridge would have two towers that would rise 200 feet above the Thames. A pair of glass-covered walkways would stretch between the two towers for walkers. Steam engines(蒸汽机) would raise and lower the bascules, or movable roadways, in less than two minutes to allow boats to pass. Londoners were excited.Once the bridge was completed in 1894, however, the public was shocked with the results. Jones' original design was simple and had a medieval(中世纪的) style. But Jones died in 1887, and Barry added his own artistic touch. When the Tower Bridge opened to traffic in 1894, the magazine The Builder called it “the most monstrous and preposterous(荒谬的) architectural sham(建筑骗局)that we have ever known”. But public opinion changed over time, and today, the Tower Bridge is one of London's best loved landmarks.5.The bridge is made of . ( )A.steel and masonryB.stoneC.woodD.plastic6.Why did Londoners build the Tower Bridge? ( )A.Because the London Bridge was too old.B.Because the city was too big.C.Because the traffic was heavy.D.Because people wanted a new landmark.7.How does boats pass the bridge? ( )A.The movable roadways can be raised and lowered.B.Steam engines would raise the boats.C.The bridge is high enough for boats to pass.D.Only lower boats can pass the bridge.8.The passage is mainly to . ( )A.introduce the Tower BridgeB.tell us the design of the Tower BridgeC.show Londoners' feelingsD.explain the reason why the Tower Bridge is built【参考答案】Ⅰ.[主旨大意]本文是一篇记叙文,讲述的是一个拾金不昧的故事。

He thought that one day his children would also walk in the same hallway and remember all the ancestors 3 these paintings. He wanted his children to remember him, too. 4 he invited many famous artists to his palace.All of the artists began to 5 the king's physical disabilities(生理缺陷). How could his painting be made very beautiful? It was not 6 . They weren't sure what his painting would be like. So one by one, they all started to politely refuse to make a painting of the king.But suddenly one artist raised his hand and said he would make a very nice painting of the king. The king became happy hearing that. Then the artist started painting. After a long time, the painting was 7 .When the artist showed the painting, everyone was 8 . In the painting, the king was sitting on a horse, on the one-leg side, holding his bow(弓箭) and aiming(瞄准) something with his one eye closed.

They were asked to get a good night's sleep for two nights.A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row. The researchers took make-up free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep.Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge(评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them,“How much would you like to make friend s with this person in the picture?”The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.The strangers also said they wouldn't want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don't want to hang around with people who might be ill.Dr.Brewer, an expert at the University of Liver-pool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often un-conscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”11.When did the researchers take make-up free photos? ( )A.After two nights' good sleep.B.After two nights' bad sleep.C.Before the experiment.D.After both two nights' good sleep and two nights' bad sleep.12.The researchers asked the strangers to do the following except .

( )A.The people who were tired.B.The people who were sleepy.C.The people who were unhealthy.D.The people who were attractive and energetic.14.According to the passage, which of the following is the best title? ( )A.Beauty Sleep, More AttractiveB.More Sleep, More FriendsC.Less Sleep, Fewer FriendsD.No Attractiveness, No FriendsPassage 2What do you want most after playing football or a great deal of physical exercise on a hot afternoon? A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful of what you are drinking. Something that looks cool m ay not be good for our health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.15.The reasons why many people like drinking energy drinks are the following EXCEPT that .( )A.they have beautiful colors and cool namesB.they are said to be helpful to healthC.they can keep them awake and better at sportsD.they have lots of caffeine16.The main reason for people not to drink too much energy drinks is that they may cause .( )A.heart problemsB.nervousnessC.sleeping difficultyD.possible health dangers17.Which of the following can take the place of the underlined word “discouraged”?( )A.encouragedB.stoppedC.helpedD.disliked18.From the passage we can know that .( )A.advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB.energy drinks are helpful to teenagers' studyC.sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD.energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers19.The best title of the passage is .

He wanted his children to remember him, too. 4 he invited many famous artists to his palace.All of the artists began to 5 the king's physical disabilities(生理缺陷). How could his painting be made very beautiful? It was not 6 . They weren't sure what his painting would be like. So one by one, they all started to politely refuse to make a painting of the king.But suddenly one artist raised his hand and said he would make a very nice painting of the king. The king became happy hearing that. Then the artist started painting. After a long time, the painting was 7 .When the artist showed the painting, everyone was 8 .

They were asked to get a good night's sleep for two nights.A week later, they were asked to sleep for only four hours every night for two nights in a row. The researchers took make-up free(素颜) photos of the volunteers after both the good and the bad sleep.Next, they asked 122 strangers to have a look at the photos and judge(评价) them on attractiveness, health, and sleepiness, as well as asking them,“How much would you like to make friend s with this person in the picture?”The strangers were good at judging if the person they were looking at was tired, and, if they were sleepy, their attractiveness score was low.The strangers also said they wouldn't want to socialize with the tired students. The researchers say this is natural for people. An unhealthy-looking face makes people run away. In other words, people don't want to hang around with people who might be ill.Dr.Brewer, an expert at the University of Liver-pool said, “Judgement of attractiveness is often un-conscious(无意识的), but we all do it, and we are able to judge on even something small like whether someone looks tired or unhealthy. This study is a good reminder of how important sleep is to us.”11.When did the researchers take make-up free photos? ( )A.After two nights' good sleep.B.After two nights' bad sleep.C.Before the experiment.D.After both two nights' good sleep and two nights' bad sleep.12.The researchers asked the strangers to do the following except .

( )A.The people who were tired.B.The people who were sleepy.C.The people who were unhealthy.D.The people who were attractive and energetic.14.According to the passage, which of the following is the best title? ( )A.Beauty Sleep, More AttractiveB.More Sleep, More FriendsC.Less Sleep, Fewer FriendsD.No Attractiveness, No FriendsPassage 2What do you want most after playing football or a great deal of physical exercise on a hot afternoon? A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful of what you are drinking. Something that looks cool m ay not be good for our health. There are plenty of “energy drinks” on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine(咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited(限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.15.The reasons why many people like drinking energy drinks are the following EXCEPT that .( )A.they have beautiful colors and cool namesB.they are said to be helpful to healthC.they can keep them awake and better at sportsD.they have lots of caffeine16.The main reason for people not to drink too much energy drinks is that they may cause .( )A.heart problemsB.nervousnessC.sleeping difficultyD.possible health dangers17.Which of the following can take the place of the underlined word “discouraged”?( )A.encouragedB.stoppedC.helpedD.disliked18.From the passage we can know that .( )A.advertisements are important in getting people to buy energy drinksB.energy drinks are helpful to teenagers' studyC.sports players need to drink a lot of energy drinksD.energy drinks are especially aimed at teenagers19.The best title of the passage is . ( )A.Energy Drinks Are UsefulB.Energy Drinks Help TeenagersC.Energy Drinks—Be carefulD.Energy Drinks—Good for HealthⅢ.回答问题In a tree in a forest, there lived a lot of birds.Before the rainy season, the birds tried their best to do things to make their home safe.Some of the birds collected branches and leaves while other birds built their nests. They also stored some food for their children. They kept themselves busy preparing for the difficult times.Soon the rains came. It was followed by thunder and lightning. But the birds were not afraid of them because they made full preparation. One day, a monkey that got wet in the rain came into the forest.

If you had prepared for it, you would not be in this bad situat ion.”“How dare you tell me what to do?” said the monkey. He angrily tore up the bird's nest and threw it on the ground.The poor bird thought, “Fools never value good advice. It is better not to give them advice.” Then the bird flew, leaving the monkey alone in the cold rain.

考研英语一完形填空蒙abcd全文共3篇示例,供读者参考篇1Blind Guessing for Cloze Tests in English for Postgraduate Entrance ExamsIf you're planning to take the English exam for postgraduate admissions, you've probably heard about the dreaded cloze test section. For those unfamiliar, it's that part where they give you a passage with several blanks, and you have to choose the correct word from multiple choice options to fill each blank. Sounds easy enough, right? Well, let me tell you, it's a real mind-bender!As someone who has been through the wringer of preparation for these exams, I can confidently say that the cloze test is the stuff of nightmares. No matter how much you study, how many practice tests you take, or how extensive your vocabulary is, those blanks always seem to mock you with their ambiguity.Now, I'm not one to advocate for shortcuts or cheating, but when it comes to the cloze test, sometimes you just have to embrace the art of blind guessing. Yes, you read that right –blind guessing. It's a survival tactic that has helped many a student scrape through this section relatively unscathed.The first step in mastering the art of blind guessing is to develop a keen sense of observation. As you read through the passage, pay close attention to the context surrounding each blank. Look for clues in the sentence structure, the tone, and the overall theme of the passage. These subtle hints can sometimes point you in the right direction, even if you're unsure of the exact word.Next, you'll want to familiarize yourself with the different types of words that commonly appear in cloze tests. Adjectives, nouns, verbs, and prepositions are frequent offenders, so it's a good idea to brush up on your knowledge of these word classes. Knowing the basic functions and relationships between these parts of speech can help you eliminate unlikely options and increase your chances of guessing correctly.Now, let's talk about the actual guessing process. When you're faced with a blank and none of the options seem to make sense, it's time to channel your inner psychic and tap into the power of random selection. Personally, I like to go with my gut instinct, but if that fails, I have a foolproof method: the ABCD dance.The ABCD dance is a sacred ritual that involves closing your eyes, taking a deep breath, and letting your pen or pencil move in a mystical pattern across the answer choices. Once you've completed the dance, you simply select the option your writing utensil has graced with its presence. It may sound silly, but trust me, this method has worked wonders for me in the past.Of course, blind guessing isn't a surefire solution, and it's always better to have a solid grasp of the language and vocabulary. But when all else fails, it's nice to have a backup plan that doesn't involve breaking down in tears or resorting to desperate measures like bribery or blackmail.In all seriousness, though, the cloze test is a challenging aspect of the English exam for postgraduate admissions, and it requires a combination of skill, strategy, and a healthy dose of luck. While blind guessing may seem like a last resort, it's a valuable tool to have in your arsenal, especially when the pressure is on and the blanks seem insurmountable.So, my fellow test-takers, embrace the art of blind guessing with open arms. Channel your inner gambler, trust your instincts, and let the ABCD dance guide you through the treacherous waters of the cloze test. Who knows? With a little bit of luck and a whole lot of blind faith, you just might come out on the otherside with a passing score and a newfound appreciation for the mysteries of the English language.篇2The Painful Art of Blindly Filling Blanks for the GREOh man, the dread I feel every time I sit down to practice those torturous cloze passages for the GRE English exam. You know the ones I'm talking about - those monstrous reading passages riddled with an ungodly number of blanks that we're supposed to accurately fill in using just contextual clues and our admittedly finite vocabulary. It's like being thrown into the deep end of a pool filled with alphabet soup rather than water.The first few questions always start off so innocuously, lulling me into a false sense of confidence. "Oh yeah, I totally know this word! It's ___ (something super obvious like 'happy' or 'big')." But then, just a few questions later, it's like the test makers activate some kind of evil word jumbler that contorts basic English into incomprehensible gibberish.I'll be reading along, nodding my head like "Yeah, this makes sense so far..." And then WHAM! I'm blindsided by some monstrosity like: "Despite the ______ criticisms, the author's ______ premise remained ______." Wait, what?! My brain just completelyblue screened. I've got nothing. At that point, I usually just furiously circle ABCD a few times and mutter under my breath while spiraling into an existential crisis.The truly soul-crushing ones though are when you've correctly intuited the general vibe and meaning of the sentence, but you're stuck choosing between two annoyingly synonymous words that seemingly fit. "Was that blank asking for 'perplexing' or 'bewildering'? Oh god, I'm going to be kicking myself when I get this back!" I can't decide, so I just circle both and pray the gods of standardized testing will take pity on me.At a certain point, I stop even trying to really digest the passage and just start rapidly fire-hosing ABCD's onto the page with complete disregard. I call this my "precipitation strategy" because I'm essentially just blindly picking letters like rain drops and hoping enough of them turn into the right puddles to pass. Is it the most elegant or advisable approach? Of course not. But sometimes the fatigue and drudgery of it all leaves me no choice but to unleash a torrent of scantron marks and hope something sticks.Don't even get me started on the double blank questions where you have to pick ONE letter for each blank, but the answers are interdependent. Ugh, I'd rather drink alphabet soupthan deal with that fresh hell. It's like putting together a nauseating little word puzzle while being smothered by vocabulary. No thank you!At the end of my practice tests, I'm always an exhausted, babbling wreck mumbling "positive...concept...notion...entity?" under my breath while absentmindedly filling in circles. And the worst part is, no matter how miserable the blank filling experience is, I have to just keep revisiting that personal lexical haunt over and over again until test day.But I suppose that's the twisted nature of academic hazing rituals like the GRE. You've got to emotionally persevere through countless cycles of obfuscating gobbledygook if you want entry into that sacred ivory tower of higher education. Filling in those torturous cloze blanks isn't just an English test, it's a relentless gauntlet that hammers you into submission until you're able to push through with robotic exactitude.Well, keep bringing it on you sadistic test makers! This battle-hardened soldier will continue doggedly plugging away and festooning those passages with my blind ABCD pockmarks. I may emerge from each encounter battered and questioning my own sanity, but I'll never surrender! Mwahaha, suck on that cloze tests! Your silly little word games are no match for my fortitudeand increasingly unhinged determination! Ahahahahaaahhhhhh....篇3The Struggle of Cloze Test Guessing on the Graduate English Entrance ExamAs a student preparing for the Graduate English Entrance Exam, one section that has always filled me with an equal mix of dread and determination is the cloze test. This deceptively simple-looking section, where you have to choose the correct words to fill in the blanks of a passage, is a true test of your English language prowess and strategic thinking.I still vividly remember my first encounter with the cloze test during one of the many practice exams I took. The passage seemed straightforward enough, but as I started reading, the blanks began to appear with an alarming frequency. Each one felt like a tiny hurdle, taunting me with its multiple-choice options.At first, I naively thought I could rely solely on my vocabulary knowledge to sail through the cloze test. I would read the sentence, consider the options, and pick the word that seemedto fit best. However, it didn't take long for me to realize that this approach was akin to navigating a minefield blindfolded.The cloze test is a cunning beast, designed to test not just your lexical prowess but also your ability to comprehend the nuances of the English language. It's a delicate dance between understanding the context, grasping the tone, and anticipating the logical flow of the passage.As I trudged through more practice tests, I quickly learned that guessing on the cloze test was both an art and a science. It required a strategic approach, a willingness to think outside the box, and a healthy dose of educated guesswork.One of the first strategies I adopted was to read the entire passage carefully before attempting to fill in any blanks. This helped me grasp the overall context and tone, allowing me to make more informed guesses when faced with tricky options. It was like solving a puzzle, where each blank was a piece that had to fit seamlessly into the bigger picture.Next, I learned to pay close attention to the surrounding words and phrases. The cloze test is often designed to test your understanding of collocations, idioms, and idiomatic expressions.A word that might seem out of place on its own could suddenlymake perfect sense when considered within the context of the sentence.As I gained more experience, I also started to recognize patterns in the way the cloze test questions were structured. Some blanks were designed to test your knowledge of grammar rules, while others were more focused on vocabulary and idiomatic expressions. By identifying these patterns, I could tailor my guessing strategies accordingly.One particularly useful technique I developed was the process of elimination. When faced with a challenging blank and multiple plausible options, I would systematically eliminate the choices that definitely didn't fit, narrowing down my options until I was left with the most logical choice.Of course, even with all these strategies in place, there were times when I found myself utterly stumped. In those moments, I learned the value of educated guesswork. I would consider the tone and style of the passage, the difficulty level of the surrounding words, and even the length of the word itself as potential clues.It was a nerve-wracking experience, akin to walking a tightrope without a safety net. There were times when I would second-guess my choices, convinced that I had made acatastrophic mistake that would cost me dearly on the final score.Yet, through it all, I persevered. I spent countless hours practicing, analyzing my mistakes, and refining my guessing strategies. The cloze test became my personal Everest, a challenge that I was determined to conquer through sheer grit and determination.And as the day of the actual Graduate English Entrance Exam approached, I felt a strange sense of confidence wash over me. I knew that I had done everything in my power to prepare for the dreaded cloze test section. I had sharpened my guessing skills to a fine edge, and I was ready to face the challenge head-on.As I sat down in the examination hall, my heart pounding with anticipation, I couldn't help but feel a sense of camaraderie with the other students around me. We were all in this together, united in our quest to conquer the cloze test and secure our place in the graduate programs of our dreams.When the test booklet was placed in front of me, I took a deep breath and dove into the cloze test section. Each blank was a puzzle to be solved, a challenge to be met with equal parts strategy and intuition.Some blanks were easy, almost child's play, while others had me second-guessing myself with every option. But I persevered, drawing upon the guessing strategies I had honed over countless practice sessions.As the clock ticked down, I found myself in a race against time, my mind working furiously to decipher the clues and make the most educated guesses possible. It was a thrilling, adrenaline-fueled experience, and I wouldn't have had it any other way.When the proctor finally called time, I felt a sense of relief and accomplishment wash over me. I had given it my all, and no matter the outcome, I knew that I had fought the good fight against the dreaded cloze test.As I reflect on my experience with the Graduate English Entrance Exam, the cloze test section stands out as a true test of resilience, strategic thinking, and a willingness to embrace the art of educated guessing. It taught me valuable lessons about perseverance, adaptability, and the importance of thinking outside the box.While the cloze test may have been a source of anxiety and frustration at times, it also served as a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the English language. Each blank was a tinywindow into the intricate web of grammar, vocabulary, and idiomatic expressions that make up this rich and diverse language.So, to all the students out there preparing for the Graduate English Entrance Exam, embrace the cloze test as a challenge to be conquered, not feared. Approach it with a strategic mindset, a willingness to think critically, and a healthy dose of educated guesswork. And above all, never lose sight of the fact that this is just one small hurdle on your path to achieving your academic dreams.The cloze test may be a formidable foe, but with the right preparation and mindset, you can emerge victorious, armed with the knowledge and skills that will serve you well in your future academic and professional endeavors.。

I.阅读理解CCan a small group of drones (无人机) guarantee the safety and reliability of railways and, at the same time, help railway operators save billions of euros each year? That is the very likely future of applying today’s “eyes in the sky” technology to make sure that the millions of kilometres of rail tracks and infrastructure (基础设施) worldwide are safe for trains on a 24/7 basis.Drones are already being used to examine high-tension electrical lines. They could do precisely the same thing to inspect railway lines and other vital aspects of rail infrastructure such as the correct position of railway tracks and switching points. The more regularly they can be inspected, the more railway safety, reliability and on-time performance will be improved. Costs would be cut and operations would be more efficient (高效) across the board.That includes huge savings in maintenance costs and better protection of railway personnel safety. It is calculated that European railways alone spend approximately 20 billion euros a year on maintenance, including sending maintenance staff, often at night, to inspect and repair the rail infrastructure. That can be dangerous work that could be avoided with drones assisting the crews’ efforts.By using the latest technologies, drones could also start providing higher-value services for railways, detectingfaults in the rail or switches, before they can cause any safety problems. To perform these tasks, drones for rail don’t need to be flying overhead. Engineers are now working on a new concept: the rail drones of the future. They will be moving on the track ahead of the train, and programmed to run autonomously. Very small drones with advanced sensors and AI and travelling ahead of the train could guide it like a co-pilot. With their ability to see ahead, they could signal any problem, so that fast-moving trains would be able to react in time.1.What makes the application of drones to rail lines possible?A.The use of drones in checking on power lines.B.Drones’ ability to work at high altitudes.C.The reduction of cost in designing drones.D.Drones’ reliable performance in remote areas.2.What does “maintenance” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to?A.Personnel safety.B.Assistance from drones.C.Inspection and repair.D.Construction of infrastructure.3.What function is expected of the rail drones?A.To provide early warning.B.To make trains run automatically.C.To earn profits for the crews.D.To accelerate transportation.4.Which is the most suitable title for the text?A.What Faults Can Be Detected with DronesB.How Production of Drones Can Be ExpandedC.What Difficulty Drone Development Will FaceD.How Drones Will Change the Future of Railways【答案】1.A2.C3.A4.D【导语】本文是一篇说明文。
职称英语《综合C》完型填空原文特别说明:原文来自于职称英语教材综合类补全短文第一篇What We Take from and Give to the SeaAs long as we have been on earth, we have used the sea around us. We take from the ocean, and we give to it.We take fishes from the ocean --millions of kilograms of fish, every year, to feed millions of people. (1) We take minerals from the ocean. One way to get salt is to place seawater in a shallow basin and leave it until it evaporates. (2) Much gold and silver drift dissolved in the waters of the sea, too1. But the sea does not give them up by simple evaporation. Other gifts from the sea are pearls, sponges and seaweed. Pearls become jewelry. (3) Seaweed becomes food of many kinds 一even candy, and ice cream — aswell as medicine. Believe it or not, fresh water is another gift from the sea. We cannot drink ocean water.(4) But ocean water becomes fresh water when the salts are removed.In the future,we will find ourselves depending more and more on fresh water from the sea.The sea gives us food, fertilizer, minerals, water, and other gifts. What do we give the sea? Garbage. (5) Huge as it is, the ocean cannot hold all the water that we pour into it. Dumping garbage into the ocean is killing off sea life2. Yet as the world population grows, we may need the sea and its gifts more than ever.We are finally learning that if we destroy our seas,we might also destroy ourselves. Hopefully, it is not too late.注释:Much gold and silver drift dissolved in the waters of the sea, too.还有不少金和银的漂流物溶解在海水里。

But if you don't know exactly how to choose, load, lift and wear them—these all-important accessories(配件)can be a pain in the back. Not to mention the neck, head and shoulders.Backpacks can influence your health. Carrying a heavy load improperly can lead to poor body position; and even hurt the spinal column(脊柱).

Make sure the pack fits properly and its size is suitable for the wearer's body.Packing it properly. Only put in the pack what is needed for that day. It's a good idea to know what each object weighs. The total weight of the filled pack should be no more than 10 to 15 percent of the wearer's own body weight. Pack heaviest objects close to the body, and place little ones outside, away from the back.Putting the backpack on. Put the pack on a smooth surface, at waist height. Put on the pack, one shoulder at a time, then adjust(调整)the straps to fit comfortably. Remember when lifting a backpack, or anything, to lift using the arms and legs and to bend at the knees.The right way to wear a backpack. Both shoulder straps should be used, and adjusted so that the pack fits the body, without hanging to one side. Backpacks should never be worn over just one shoulder. You should be able to move your hands between the backpack and your back. The waist strap should also be worn.Take the above advice, and you may not complain back pain, numbness or weakness in your arms and legs any more.5.What could mainly cause some young people to suffer back pain by their teenage years?

Talent spotters(物色新秀者)thought he was ugly , but Zhou Jielun , whose English name is Jay Chou, is now one of Asia‘s hottest pop stars.Last week he had the honor of being the first Asian male singer to appear on the cover of Time, a popular magazine in the US. He has won more than 30 entertainment awards over the past two years.Chou released(发行)his first album “Jay‖ in November ,2000, and with two follow –up albums—―Fantasy‖ and ―English Dimensions‖—his music has come to rule the Asian pop world.The entertainment industry has called him ―a small heavenly king‖. But Chou says he is not a king, at least he isn‘t before he shoots to stardom. As a boy, he was thought ―stupid‖. His high school English teacher said young Chou had a learning disability. ― He had very few facial expressions. I thought he was foolish.‖Chou did poorly in math, science and English. But his mother noticed the quiet, shy boy was sensitive (敏感的) to music: When he heard western pop music, he seemed to dance. So she took Chou to a piano school at four years old. He practiced all the time, giving his whole attention to the music. At the end of high school, he failed his exams and didn‘t go to university.But he liked playing the piano very much. In a show he was seen playing the piano by a major Taiwanese entertainer, Jacky Wu. The 18-year-old Chou became a contract song writer for Wu‘s music studio. There he spent one and a half years writing songs for famous artists such as Valen Hsu and Coco lee.He proved that he could be more than a song writer. His catchy tunes have mainstreamed rap and R&B (Rhythm & Blues) in the Asian pop world. And his success proved that gifts still matter more than looks and images.54. Which of the following is not true according to the passage?A. People call Chou ―a small heavenly king‖.B. Chou was not a good student in high school.C. Chou i s now one of Asia‘s hottest pop stars.D. Chou was thought to have a gift for music by his teachers.55. The underlined expression ―shoots to stardom‖ in Paragraph 4 probably means ― ___‖.A. becomes richB. becomes famousC. gets well-trainedD. gets experienced56. In this passage, the writer mainly wants to tell us that_______.A. Jay Chou‘s music will rule the Asian pop music.B. teachers sometimes have wrong opinions on a student.C. Jay Chou is a very successful singer, though he did poorly in schoolD. Jay Chou became the first Asian male singer appearing on the cover of Time第一套朝阳DIf there is one thing I‘m sure about, it is that in a hundred years from now we will still be reading newspapers. Even though now some people get most of their news from television or radio and many buy a newspaper only on Saturday or Sunday. But for most people reading a newspaper has become a habit passed down from generation (一代人) to generation.The nature of what is news may change. What basically makes news is what influences on our lives — the new governmental rules, the coverage (报导)of the wars, and other disasters, will continue much the same. I think there will be more coverage of scientific research, though. It‘s already happening in areas that may directly influence on our lives, like genetic(基因) engineering. In the future, I think there will be more coverage of scientific explanations of why we feel as we do — as we develop a better understanding of how the brain operates and what our feelings really are.It‘s quite possible that in the next century newspapers will be transmitted(传送) electronically from Fleet Street and printed out in our own home. In fact, I‘m pretty sure that how it wil l happen in the future. You will probably be able to choose from a menu, making up your own newspaper by picking out the things you want to read — sports and international news, etc.I think people have got it wrong when they talk about competition between the different media(媒体). They actually feed off each other. Some people once foresaw that television would kill off newspapers, but that hasn‘t happened. What is read on the printed page lasts longer than pictures on a screen or sound lost in the air. And as for the Internet, it‘s never really pleasant to read something just on a screen.57. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Best Way to Get NewsB. The Changes of MediaC. Make Your Own NewspaperD. The Future of Newspaper58. In the writer‘s opinion, in the future, _______.A. newspapers will cover more scientific researchB. newspapers will not be printed in publishing houses any longerC. more new governmental rules, wars and disasters will make newsD. more and more people will prefer watching TV to reading newspapers59. What will probably be on in the newspaper made by yourself ?A. What you are interested in.B. A menu of important news.C. The most important news.D. Sports and international news.60. From the passage, we can infer _______.A. the writer believes most of the media will die outB. newspapers will stay with us together with other mediaC. television will take the place of newspaper in the futureD. newspapers will win the competition among the different media第二套大兴完形One evening I was resting in a cafe (快餐店).

He shut out his classmates and 36 , his teacher. I tried to set up a fri endly relationship with him, but almost failed. Even a ―Good Morning, Willard‖ 37 only a very low grunt (咕哝).

Many of these aqueducts are still standing today. The Romans also built great pipes under the ground to carry away the dirty water. In Rome, one of these pipes is still used today; it is 2,000 years old. The Roman Emperors even set up a government health service. They built the first great public hospitals in Europe, and they paid doctors to look after poor people.Then the Roman Empire(罗马帝国) fell to pieces. These civilized(文明的) methods of treatment disappeared from most of Europe for more than a thousand years. People went back to the old ways. They lived in dirty conditions which helped to cause diseases, and they asked God to cure the disease.But the work of the Greek(希腊的)and Roman doctors was not lost. Over a thousand years ago, the Arabs(阿拉伯人)moved into many of the Mediterranean countries. They took big parts of the old Roman lands. They translated the Greek and Roman medical books into Arabic. Arab doctors themselves made many new discoveries. When civilization at last came back to Europe, men once again translated the Greek and Roman works on medicine into Latin(拉丁文). Slowly, very slowly, European doctors discovered again the things that the Greeks and Romans had known so long ago. Slowly, they began to make new discoveries. They found out more about the way the body works.57. The underlined word ―aqueduct‖ means something for __________.A. storing waterB. making water cleanC. sending waterD. carrying away dirty water58.

It will quickly make some soil poorer and destroy forest growth. Future more, the people there will always find they need more people to work on this land to produce more food.During the past twenty years, some developing countries have increased a lot more farmland in their countries, but their populations in meantime have grown faster, therefore they are farther than before. And their food increase has been gained at cost of using up rich lands. Many of the lands have become poor lands and are producing less food now.Meanwhile, farming in the developed countries has produced more food through improved technology. Since 1940, farmland has been reduced 7 percent in the United States but cereal(谷物) production has jumped 60 percent. The increase in the corn output (出口), thanks to hybrid corn(杂交玉米), has been even greater.The secret is scientific ways, of course. And compared to the developing countries, the populations in developed countries have increased just a little larger than twenty years ago.On the whole, world population today is increasing at the speed higher than ever before. Every year the population is two percent larger, so that the 6,000 million people on the earth today will present another 120 million mouths to be fed by the time next year. It is a fearsome thought that this time tomorrow there will be added to this world population some 360 thousand persons.What can we do about the increase population, or the lack(欠缺) of food to feed such a large, increasing population? That is a very important problem before everyone on the earth, young or old, men or women.57.

About 120 million people are added to the world every yearC. the more population there is, the less food there isD. the richer a country is, the richer it will become60. The writer seems to suggest that the food problem cannot be solved unless _______.A. there is no more room for more peopleB. we stop getting more land into farmlandC. all of the pollution is stopped on the earthD. everyone realizes how serious the problem is第五套石景山完形June was sitting by the swimming pool in her new swimsuit. Feeling very hot, she jumped into the water. 36 else was in the pool. It was so good to have the whole pool to herself. The fresh water 37 her body immediately. She kept on swimming around the pool.Not having swum in the past several years and being a bit out of shape, June grew 38 easily. ―Ah, no pain no gain,‖ she thought to herself. June continued to swim, realizing her head was hurting. Her breathing became 39 . Then she saw the lifeguard and some others around the pool. No sense in embarrassing(使尴尬)herself or troubling anyone, she 40 on.Then June found herself in the middle of the pool. Deciding not to make a scene, she continued on. 41 she made it to the other side of the pool. Tiredness and weakness made it difficult for June to get out of the pool. As she 42 , her body swayed(摇摆)back and forth, losing her balance.Realizing she needed help but unable to even say anything, she leaned against (斜靠)the pool side. Several minutes later she had enough 43 to pull her body up out of the pool. Sitting at the side of the pool, she felt that someone was 44 at her. It was the lifeguard. June was only able to wave her hand, telling him that she was okay.Have you ever found yourself in such a 45 and you don‘t ask for help? Maybe you‘re afraid you‘ll be made a laughing stock(笑柄). We‘ve all been there. Don‘t be shy to ask for help. 46 has many ups and downs. When you find yourself unable to ―keep your head above water,‖ stop, look around and ask for help before you find yourself ―47 ‖. The journey of life will be happier and more satisfying.36. A.

Or they may pay no attention to signals from another person who is trying to develop a relationship.Different cultures emphasize(强调)the importance of relationship building to a greater or lesser degree. For example, business in some countries is not possible until there is a relationship of trust. Even with people at work, it is necessary to spend a lot of time on ―small talk‖, usually over a glass of tea, before they do any job. In many European countries – like the UK or France – people find it easier to build up a lasting working relationship at restaurants or cafes rather than at the office.Talk and silence may also be different in some cultures. I once made a speech in Thailand. I had expected my speech to be a success and start a lively discussion; instead there was an uncomfortable silence. The people present just stared at me and smiled. After getting to know their ways better, I realized that they thought I was talking too much. In my own culture, we express meaning mainly through words, but people there sometimes feel too many words are unnecessary.Even within Northern Europe, cultural differences can cause serious problems. Certainly English and German cultures share similar values; however, Germans prefer to get down to business more quickly. We think that they are rude. In fact, this is just because one culture starts discussions and makes decisions more quickly.People from different parts of the world have different values, and sometimes these values are quite against each other. However, if we can understand them better, a multicultural(多元文化的)environment will offer a wonderful chance for us to learn from each other.。
