However,because so many reactions can occur in transfusions,patients usually receive only salt or plasma(liquid)until their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital.In this way,it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality.Among Europeans and people of European ancestry,about42percent have type A while 45percent have type O.The rarest is type AB.Other races have different percentages.For example,some American Indian groups have nearly100percent type O.(1).A good title for this passage is________.A.Getting Blood and PlasmaB.Special Blood TypesC.Human Blood TypesD.The Blood Bank of a Hospital(2).The word"hence"in line10means_________A.alwaysB.oftenC.thereforeD.seldom(3).In a blood transfusion,it is easiest to find the acceptable type of blood for a person with the blood type of________A.AB.BC.ABD.O(4).The purpose of using salt and plasma before a blood transfusion is to allow time______.A.to test the reactions to the transfusionB.for matching the blood to be transfused with the patient''s bloodC.for the blood to be delivered from the blood bankD.to select a new type of blood for the patient(5).Most Europeans have blood type_________A.AB.BC.OD.A or O2.In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken,not written.In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome,testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages,students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their Field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject.This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor''s degree.Generally,however,modern examinations are written.The written examination,where all students are tested on the same questions,was probably not known until the nineteenth century.Perhaps it came intoexistence with the great increase in population and the developmentof modern industry.A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers,resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Certainly,during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes called an"objective"test.It is intended to deal with facts,not personal opinions.To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions,each of which has only one correct answer.Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like answers to students who have not learned the material properly.(1).In the Middle Ages students_______.A.took objective testsB.were timed by clocksC.specialized in one subjectD.never wrote exams(2).The main idea of paragraph2is______A.workers now take examinationsB.the population has grownC.there are only written exams todayD.examinations are now written and timed(3).The kind of exam where students must select answers is______.A.personalB.objective?C.spoken?D.written(4).Modern industry must have developed______.A.before the Middle AgesB.in Greece or RomeC.around the19lh centuryD.machines to take tests(5).It may be concluded that testing______.A.should test only opinionsB.should always be writtenC.has changed since the Middle AgesD.is given only in factories3.Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?”I’d ask.“Well,the main thing was learning how to face an audience...notto be inhibited(拘谨)...not to be nervousExactly,when you take a course in public speaking nowadays,you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary.Instead,you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed,how to speak without a prepared script,how to read out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your long-standing nervous inhibitions.The same is true of writing.The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions,to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote.You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and read out to the person at the other end of the line.Of course,in public speaking,with the audience right in front of you,the problem is easier.You can look at them and talk to them directly.In writing,you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her.But that effort is necessary--or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously“talk on paper(1).The topic of the passage is________A.how to be a good writerB.how to be a good speakerC.how to express yourself with your wordsD.how to get rid of nervousness in public speaking(2).The public speech course mainly teaches students______A.how to make an attractive speech using perfect grammar and vocabularyB.how to express themselves exactly and vividlyC.how to collect data needed and organize itD.how to get over their nervousness when making a speech(3).The similarity between making a public speech and writing isthat_______A.you have to do a lot of preparation work beforehandB.you should get over your nervous inhibitionsC.you should know grammar and vocabulary well to accomplish themD.both of them have audience(4).In the opinion of the author,public speaking is much easier than writing because_______A.public speaking requires less effort than writingB.it’s unnecessary for you to write a lot for speech and you can say anything as you likeC.you face the audience directly in public speaking;while writingis otherwiseD.in public speaking,the audience have to listen to you whether they like it or not(5).The author of this passage probably is a________A.bossB.politicianC.writerD.professor4."The pen is more powerful than the sword(剑)."There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong.Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them.She was born in the USA in1811.One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world,and was helpful in causing a civil war and freezing the slaves.The civil war was the American Civil War of1861,in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won.This book was named"Uncle Tom''''s Cabin".There was time when every English-speaking man,woman,and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery.Not many people read it today,but it isstill very interesting.The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse(唤起)people''''s sympathies(同情).The writer herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave.The Southern Americans were very angry at the novel,which they said did not at all represent(代表)true state of affairs,but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it and were so inspired(激励)by it that they-were ready to go to war to set the slaves free.(1). According to the passage().A.every English-speaking person had read"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"B."Uncle Tom''s Cabin"was not very interestingC.those who don''t speak English can not have read"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"D.the book"Uncle Tom''s Cabin"did a great deal in the American Civil War(2).How old was Mrs.Stowe when her world famous book was published?()A.About60years old.B.Over50years old.C.In her forties.D.Around30years old.(3).What do you learn about Mrs.Stowe from the passage?()A.AShe had been living in the north of America before the AmericanCivil War.B.She herself encouraged the northern Americans to go to war and set the slaves free.C.She was better as writing as using a sword.D.She had once been a slave.(4).Why could Mrs.Stowe''s book cause a civil war in America?()A.She wrote so well that Americans loved her very much.B.She disclosed(揭露)the terrible wrongs that had been done to the slaves in the Southern States.C.The Southern Americans hated the book while the Northern Americans like it.D.The book had been read by many Americans.(5).What can we learn from the passage?()A.We needn''t use weapons(武器)to fight things that are wrong.B.writer is more helpful in a war than a soldier.C.We must understand the importance of literature and art.D.No war can be won without such a book as"Uncle Tom''s Cabin".5.Although I had left school against the advice of my teachers,I had, without telling anyone,tried to continue my studies in literature (文学)at evening classes.It was a tiresome walk from one end of the city to another and to sit among adults was uninteresting.I was the youngest in the class,so the friendship I knew at school was absent.I put up with(忍受)it for a short period.It was too long a walk on cold winter''s nights and it was hard to put my heart into Shakespeare with wet shoes and trousers.So I continued reading books and started writing poetry at home.By chance,I won some prizes and awards(奖)for literature.A young woman from a TV company came to the college one day.She told me that I had won a national poetry award.I stared at her in astonishment and disbelief.She wanted to make a short film about me,to which I said,"No,I couldn''t do that."Not that I had any real excuse,I was just frightened.In the end she persuaded me that1should do it the following day.So I did.They made a short film of me reading one of my poems and I became more interested in literature than ever.I wondered what I should do after this,and decided some weeks later that1could not imagine myself spending the rest of my days dealing with machines.So one evening,I hesitatingly told my parents that I wanted to return to school.They were greatly surprised and,I think, a little afraid but they did not try to persuade me not to,they wanted to know if I was sure,if I knew what it meant and whether I realized that if I gave up my job training,it would be verydifficult to get a good job.But nothing could stop me,and they asked about the matter no further.(1).Which of the following has mostprobably been discussed in this passage?()A.The writer''s unhappy childhood.B.The poor teaching quality(质量)of the writer''s school.C.The writer''s leaving school against his teachers''advice.D.Whether it was worth leaving school for job training.(2).The writer did not feel comfortable at the evening school because().A.he found it difficult to make friends with his classmatesB.he had to walk a long distance to the evening schoolC.he could not put his heart into reading books afterhe was caught in the rainD.of all of the above(3).After he won some prizes and awards for literature,a young woman from a TV company().A.wanted to make his success known to the publicB.came to make friends with himC.invited him to make a speechD.came to tell him that he had become a very important person(4).After his success,he()A.decided to get a good jobB.decided to continue hisstudies in literature at the evening schoolC.decided to return to the school he once leftD.began to feel very important and proud(5).Which of the following is NOT TRUE?()A.His parents worried that he would have no future if he returned to school.B.His parents worried that he would leave school again.C.It was difficult for one who studied literature to get a job.D.His parents did not want him to continue his education.6.It is a great truth because once we truly understand and accept it. Then life is no longer difficult.Most people do not fully see this truth.Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy.It seems to them that difficulties represent (代表)a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families,their class,or even their nation.What makes life difficult is the process of facing and solving problems and it is a painful one.Problems,depending on their nature, cause us sadness or,loneliness or regret or anger of fear.These are uncomfortable feelings,often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems,life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet,it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure.When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit,we encourage the human ability to solve problems,just as in school we set problems for our children to solve.It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.As Benjamin Franklin said,"Those things that hurt,instruct."It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.(1).From the passage,it can be inferred that().A.everybody has problemsB.we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of lifeC.life is difficult because our problems bring us painD.people like to complain about their problems(2).The writer probably used one short sentence in the first paragraph to().A.save spaceB.persuade readersC.make readers laughD.get readers''attention(3).The main idea of paragraph three is that().A.most people feel life is easyB.the writer feels life is easyC.the writer likes to complain about his problemsD.Problem solving is part of life(4).According to the passage,we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to().A.encourage them to learnB.teach them to fear the pain of solving the problemC.help them learn to deal with painD.teach them how to respect from problems(5).The saying from Benjamin Franklin"Those things that hurt,instruct"suggest that().A.we do not learn from experienceB.we do not learn when we are painC.pain teaches us important lessonsD.pain cannot be avoid答案：一、单项选择题（70分，共35题，每小题2分）1.B2.B3.A4.B5.D6.B7.A8.D9.B10.D11.C12.B13.C 14.A15.A16.A17.C18.C19.C20.C21.B22.D23.C24.C25.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Today there are three different kinds of New Yorkers: the people who act as if they were born here: the people who are here and wish to be elsewhere: and the collection of virtual New Yorkers all over the world, who wish they were living in New York. These are the three states of mind and what they have in common are longing and illusion. In fact, it´ s a city of dreamers.What makes New York special? New Yorkers are convinced of its specialness—but Toronto is more diverse, London is larger, Washington is more powerful. So why does New York think it´ s the capital of the world?People often explain the problems in European cities by citing inequality. But New York today is one of the most unequal cities in America. In 2010, 1 percent of New Yorkers earned 45 percent of its income. That works out to an average of $3.7 million a year for the city´s top 34,500 households. The average daily income of this group is greater than the average annual income of the city´ s bottom 10 percent.So why would people still come to try their luck in this tough place? Is it opportunity or illusion that draws them?They come because any newcomer can find a place in the hierarchy of New York. If you look at a New York City restaurant, for example, the cook might be French, the people washing dishes might be Mexican, the hostess might be Russian, the owner might be British. They are not all equal. They earn different rates. But they work together to get food to hungry people.What New York demonstrates is this: immigration works. The city can use its immigrants, eventhe illegal ones. Though they broke the law by illegally crossing the borders, the city´ s economy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported. Attracted here by the founding myth of the city, each immigrant is seeking to escape from history, personal and political. For him, New York is the city of the second chance.第46题The writer mentions the three kinds of New Yorkers to stress that______.A.they share the same longingB.they are in pursuit of dreamsC.they are proud of their birthplaceD.they wish to live in another place第47题In the eyes of New Yorkers, their city is______.A.powerfulB.diverseC.specialrge第48题The figures in paragraph 3 are given to show that New York______.A.favors the luckyB.favors the localsC.is a city of inequalityD.is a city of opportunities第49题People keep coming to New York because they can find jobs that______.A.challenge themB.suit them wellC.pay them wellD.raise their status第50题It is implied in the text that New York is______.A.a tolerant cityB.a wealthy cityC.a mythical cityD.a historical city上一题下一题(51~55/共15题)ComprehensionDirections:Read the following two texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D.We´ ve read how babies stare longer and cry less when held by pretty people, and heard tales of handsome children doing better in school, given special attention by their teachers. In life, as in love, beautiful people seem to have it awfully easy. But what if we told you that when it comes to online dating, good looks could actually hurt you?According to a recent survey of 43,000 users by OK Cupid, an online dating site, the more men disagree about a woman´s looks, the more they end up liking her. What does that mean for ladies looking for a match? " We now have mathematical evidence that minimizing your´weaknesses´ is the opposite of what you should do," says the site´s co-founder, Christian Rudder. "If you´re a little fat, play it up. If you have a big nose, play it up. Statistically, the guys who don´ t like it can only help you, and the ones who do like it will be all the more excited. "The results of this study end up highlighting an idea that recent scientific research does indeed support. Which is this: the beautiful may have it good, but online, as in work and life, women who are too attractive don´t always have an advantage.Beauty creates more competition—among women, taught they must out-look each other for men and jobs and everyday satisfaction: and among men, who are competing for the most attractive prize. All of which might help explain why 47 percent of corporate recruiters believe it´s possible for a woman to suffer for being " too good-looking": why attractive women tend to face heightened examination from their female peers: or, finally, why men on OK Cupid end up contacting women who may ultimately be less attractive—because it removes the opposition. " If you suspect other men are uninterested, it means less competition," explains Rudder. " You might start thinking: maybe she´ s lonely... maybe she´ s just waiting to find a guy who appreciates her... at least I won´ t get lost in the crowd. "In the end, being beautiful will always have its blessings—but sometimes, there´ s more to an advantage than meets the eye.第51题It is generally believed that beautiful people______.A.have less difficulty in lifeB.are less worried about loveC.pay less attention to othersD.like to gaze at lovely babies第52题The OK Cupid survey found that men´ s arguments over a woman´ s looks______.A.have little meaningB.benefit online datingC.will actually hurt herD.add to her popularity第53题Christian Rudder advises women to______.A.play up their physical advantagesB.view their popularity scientificallyC.highlight their physical weaknessesD.accept guys who are willing to help第54题The attitude of women toward their attractive peers is______.A.criticalB.friendlyC.conservativeD.straightforward第55题The main idea of the text is that a woman´ s good looks______.A.help to shape ideas of beauty。

There are many misunderstandings about American Indian names.Crazy Horses, for example, was given to a man because he was courageous, not because he was mad. Indian families had no last names. The Sioux Indians give individuals three or four names. The first name was given at birth. It showed the order of a birth into the family. Wenonah, for instance, meant “firstborn daughter”. The second name, the honor name, was given to the child by a medicine man (有法术之人). It usually referred to the fine character of good deeds of one of the child’s ancestors (祖先). When he grew up, the person was expected to live up to this name. Otherwise, the person might not be called by it. The third name was the nickname. It usually referred to something odd (临时的) that the person had done. It was hardlyever flattering. The fourth name came the deed name. It was give n by a war chief after the person accomplished some good or extraordinary bravery. The name might be that of a fear –– inspiring animal such as Bear or Buffalo or that of a noble bird, such as Eagle, Hawk or Owl.A. if he could put the meaning of this name into practice,B. if his appearance would be like his ancestor’s,C. only when he grew upD. when he satisfied the medicine man6. Between 1886 and 1914, Canada received over two million immigrants. The majority of them were from Eastern Europe. The government welcomed these people by offering them free farmland in the West. However, Canada immigration policy was not equal for Asian immigrants. The Canadian government passed two laws to prevent Chinese immigration. In 1885, the Canadian government passed the first law to prevent Chinese immigration. The law forced every Chinese person entering Canada to pay a $50 entry fee. The government introducedthis head tax to satisfy Caucasian(高加索人) laborers who felt that Chinese immigrants were competing for their jobs. The head tax was a burden for Chinese immigrants, but it did not prevent them fromcoming to Canada. For many of these poor Chinese laborers, they could earn more money there than in China. They were willing to borrow the money to pay for the overseas trip and the head tax. The Canadian government raised the head tax to $100 in 1900, then to $500 in 1903. The Canadian government passed its most restrictive immigration lawin 1923. That year, the Chinese Immigration Act prevented all Chinese except officers, merchants, and students from entering Canada. TheAct was the result of pressure from anti-Asian groups. These groupsfelt that the head tax was insufficient because Chinese laborers were still coming to Canada.

In its currentform, country music is a combination of two separate musical traditions: the styles of the Southeastern states and the music of the Southwest, especially Texas. Both styles influenced and were influenced by the blues and by black rural dance music.The first country artists to be widely known achieved popularity in the late 1920s. The music of these performers was heard throughout the south during the 1920s and ''30s on radio programs.By the 1950s, country music had become a significant force in pop music. Regular appearances on the radio show made stars of many performers. The singer-songwriter Hank Williams wrote four million-seller songs in 1950, seven in 1951, and four more in 1953.By the 1970s, some country musicians began combining country music with electric instruments, creating a country rock sound.(1).

Advertising can be thought of “as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services”. Advertising aims to increase people’s awareness and arouse interest. It tries to inform and to persuade. The media are all used to spread the message, and the press offers a fairly cheap method. Magazines are used to reach special sections of the market. The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets. Television, although more expensive, can be very effective. Posters are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction. Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising.We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the consumer. Since advertising forms part of the cost of production, which has to be covered by the selling price, it is clear that it is the customer who pays for advertising. However, if large scale advertising leads to increased demand, production costs are reduced, and the customer pays less.It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertising on sales. When the market is growing, advertising helps to increase demand. When the market is shrinking, advertising may prevent a bigger fall in scales than would occur without its support. What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertising if they were not convinced of its value to them.(1). Advertising is often used to ( )A. convince customersB.promote productionC.rise interestD.push the sales(2). According to the passage, trade fairs (Paragraph 1) may ( ) .A. replace exhibitions and markets supplyB.local goods and servicesC.attract possible customersD.provide cheap amusements(3). Advertising is in the main paid for by ( ) .A. the customerB.the producerC.the increased salesD.the decreased costs(4). The author says that advertising can increase demand ( )A. in any period of salesB.in any circumstancesC.in a growing marketD.in a shrinking market(5). What the last sentence of this passage actually tells us is that ( ).A. businessmen usually do not pay more for advertising than they have toB.businessmen know well that advertising could bring them more profits C.advertising couldn’t convince people of the value of the goods advertising usually costsD.businessmen large amounts of money3. Almost every family buys at least one copy of a newspaper every day. Some people subscribe to as many as two or three different newspapers. But why do people read newspapers?Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings — battles lost and won, kings or rulers overthrown or killed — took months and even years to travel from one country to another. The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate. Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in faraway countries on the same day they happen.Apart from supplying news from all over the world, newspapers give us a lot of other useful information. There are weather reports, radio, television and film guides, book reviews, stories, and, of course, advertisements. There are all sorts of advertisements. The bigger ones are put in by large companies to bring attention to their products. They pay the newspapers thousands of dollars for their advertising space, but it is worth the money, for news of their products goes into almost every home in the country. For those who produce newspapers, advertisements are also important. Money earned from advertisements makes it possible for them to sell their newspapersat a low price and still make a profit.(1). The habit of reading newspapers is ( )A. widespreadB.found among a few familiesC.not popularD.uncommon(2). In the past, news was ( )A. sent by telegraphB.sent by letterC.assed from one person to anotherD.sent by telephone(3).
