Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions:There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there arefour choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the bestchoice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with asingle line through the center.Passage OneNormally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of 36 courses, each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes perweek for fifteen weeks. While attending a university a student will probably attend 4 or 5 courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take 4 years attending 2 semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during the degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes pressure from the strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find timefor great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example by cheating, has to appear before a student court. With enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity.A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him or her later in his or her career.21. Normally a student would at least attend __________ classes each week.A. 10B. 12C. 15D. 2022. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.A.to live in a different universityB.to take a particular course in a different universityC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to get two degrees from two different universities23. American university students are usually under pressure of work because______.A.their academic performance will affect their future careers.B.they are heavily involved in student affairsC.they have to observe university disciplineD.they want to run for positions of authority in student organizations24. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probablybecause_____.A.they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB.they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC.such positions help them get better jobsD.such positions are usually well paid25. The student organizations seem to be effective in ___________.A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB.ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC.evaluating students, performance by bring them before a courtD.keeping up the students, enthusiasm for social activities.Passage TwoIt’s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity(多样化) is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rates are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women, and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn’t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the businessmanagers they will need.Like wise, I don't hear people in the academy saying, ―Let’s go backward. Let’s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy(不拘一格选人才)‖ (which was never true-we never had a meritocracy, although we’ve come closer to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is better because of the diversity. So where we hear this debate is primarily in political circles and in the media –not in corporate board rooms or on college campuses.36. The word ―imperative‖ (Para.1) most probably refers to something___________.A. superficialB. remarkableC. debatableD. essential37. Which of the following groups of people still differ in their views on diversity?A. MinoritiesB. Politicians.C. ProfessorsD. Managers.38. High corporate leaders seem to be in favor of promoting diversity so as to____________.A. lower the rate of unemploymentB. win equal political rights for minoritiesC. be competitive in the world marketD. satisfy the demands of a growing population39. It can be inferred from the passage that _____________.A. meritocracy can never be realized without diversityB. American political circles will not accept diversityC. it is unlikely that diversity will occur in the U.S. mediaD. minorities can only enter the fields where no debate is heard about diversity40. According to the passage diversity can be achieved in American society by___________.A. expanding the pool of potential employeesB. promoting policies that provide skills to employeesC. training more engineers, scientists, lawyers and business managers.D. providing education for all regardless of race or sexPassage ThreeDrug-taking is widespread. It is apparently very easy for sportsman and sportswomen to get drugs. The strangest thing about the use of drugs in sports is the fact that there is no real evidence to show that they improve athletic performance. And they can cause liver cancer, and have led to the death of two world-class athletes.Now taking urine samples of athletes is practiced worldwide, yet drug-taking remains a serious problem. To fight it, the Sports Council in Britain has started in-and-out-of-competition of drug testing program. Before, competitions were tested at random, which means a few people were selected without knowing beforehand. This was mostly done during matches. Now, athletescan be tested when they train as well. This way the authorities will be able to catch more drug-takers, who will never know beforehand when they have to take a drugs test.Many people think of drugs as something only found in chemicals. But even cough medicine, alcohol and caffeine which is found in coffee, are considered drugs if a test shows an athlete has taken too much. Of course, an athlete is allowed to drink coffee. For some drugs, a certain amount is permitted. For other drugs, such as steroids( 类固醇), any amount in urine samples leads to a ban.41. It is implied in the passage that _________.A. drugs are losing their market in the sports circleB. fewer and fewer athletes are taking drugs nowadaysC. sportsmen lose in competition as a result of drug-takingD. drugs don’t seem to make athletes perform better in competition42. What is new about the drug testing program as compared with the previouspractice?A. Urine samples are taken and tested.B. Athletes are selected and tested during and after the competition.C. More athletes are selected to be tested during matches.D. Athletes are tested in training as well as during competition for testing43. To make the result of the drug test negative, sportsmen must _________beforetaking a test.A. avoid being selected for testingB. not take much medicineC. give up drinkingD. limit intake of liquids also considered to be drugs44. What happens when steroids is found in urine samples?A. Competitors are banned from participating in sports events.B. Competitors are expelled from their teams.C. Drinks containing the drug are removed from the market.D. Drinks containing the drug are destroyed.45. According to the passage, the main reason why drug-taking is not permitted forsportsmen is that _________.A. it does harm to their healthB. it makes them make progress too rapidlyC. they cheat the audience without showing their real skillsD. they are naturally strong enough themselvesPassage FourNative Americans from the southeastern part of what is now the United States believed that the universe in which they lived was made up of three separate, but related, worlds: the Upper World, the Lower World, and This World. In the last there lived humans, most animals, and all plants. This world, a round island resting on the surface of waters, was suspended from the sky by four cords attached to the island at the four cardinal points of the compass. Lines drawn to connect the opposite points of the compass, from north to south and from east to west, intersected This World to divide it into four wedge-shaped segments. Thus a symbolic representation of the human world was a cross within a circle, the cross representing the intersecting lines and the circle—the shape of This World.Each segment of This World was identified by its own color.According to Cherokee doctrine, east was associated with the color red because it was the direction of the Sun, the greatest deity of all. Red was also the color of fire, believed to be directly connected with she Sun, with blood, and therefore with life. Finally, red was the color of success. The west was the Moon segment, it provided no warmth and was not life-giving as the Sun was. So its color was black. North was the direction of cold, and so its color was blue (sometimes purple), and it represented trouble and defeat. South was the direction of warmth; its color, white, was associated with peace and happiness.The sou theastern Native Americans’ universe was one in which opposites were constantly at war with each other, red against black, blue against white. This world hovered(徘徊)somewhere between the perfect order and predictability of the UpperWorld and the total disorder and instability of the Lower World. The goal was to find some kind of halfway path, or balance, between those other worlds.46. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.One Civilization’s View of the UniverseB.The Changing of the Seasons in the SoutheastC.The Painting of Territorial Maps by Southeaster Native AmericansD.The War Between Two Native American Civilizations47. The author implies that This World was located____.A. inside the Upper WorldB. inside the Lower WorldC. above the Upper WorldD. between the Upper World and the Lower World48. According to the passage southeastern Native Americanscompared This Worldto the ____.A. WatersB. skyC. an animalD. an island49. According to the passage, southeastern native Americans associated red with all of the following EXCEPT _____.A. fireB. troubleC. bloodD. success50. The shape of This World is closest to that of which of the following?A. A circle.B. A triangle.C. A Square.D. A cube.III.

Cloze (10 points)Directions:Decide which of the choices given below would correctly complete the passage if inserted in the corresponding blanks. Select the correctchoice for each blank.Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 81 how difficult it is to write a 82 children’s book. Either the author has aimed too 83 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 84 the story seems to be talking to the readers.The best c hildren’s books are 85 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 86 who hears the story and the adult who 87 it.Unfortunately, there are in fact 88 books like this, 89 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 90 to solve.This may be why many of books regarded as 91 of children’s literature were in fact written for 92 . Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland is perhaps the most 93 of this.Children, left for themselves, often 94 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or 95 and he will 96 willinglychoose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the 97 of teachers and right-thinking parents.Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into 98 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so99 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 100 books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.81.

Reading Comprehension ( 30 points, 2 points for each item)Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.It’s interesting that the arrival of snow has different effects on people in different countries. For some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a catastrophe（灾害）.But there are countries between these two kinds that normally expect snow some time over the winter months, but never receive snow regularly or in the same quantities every year. Britain is one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply causes problems. Within hours of the first snowfalls, however light, roads are blocked, trains and buses have to stop in the middle of the way. Normal communications are affected as well: telephone calls become difficult and the post immediately takes more time than usual. And almost within hours there are also certain shortages—bread, vegetables and other things—not because all these things can no longer be produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go out and store up with food and so on——“just for fear that something bad should happen.”But why does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, the Austral ians and the Canadians don’t have such problems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires snow-ploughs（扫雪机）and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does not buy snow-ploughs is that they are only used for a few days in any one year, and the money could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education, helping the old and so on..21. According to the writer, Britain is a country_____.A which has regular snow B. which is not well prepared for snowC. for which snow is a catastropheD. for which snow is a wonder22.The arrival of snow in Britain affects all of the following except_______.A. trafficB. communicationsC. food suppliesD. service quality23 After a few hours’ snowing there are often some shortages of food because______.A. shops have closed downB. people buy as much as they canC. farmers cannot produce any moreD. people eat more vegetables in winter24.The first reason that the British do not buy snow-ploughs is that________.A. spreading salt is good enoughB. old people need more moneyC. snow-ploughs are not used oftenD. the hospital is more important25 The underlined words “two kinds” in the second paragraph refer to the countries _______.A. which have snow either as a yearly happening to celebrate or as something terrible.B. which either have heavy snow or light snowC. to which snow either causes problems or no problemsD. which either have snow-ploughs or no snow-ploughsPassage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it will not matter. They will turn themselves off and on again when you return. You will choose the temperature for each room, the lighting and the humidity.A sensor will detect the presence of a human (and, with luck, ignore the dog!) and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave it will turn them off again.The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than just turn the fires and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs or switches, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair. They will detect(发现) fire and if you are out of the house, the computer will call the fire brigade(消防队). It will also call the police should the sensors detect an intruder(入侵者) This will not be very difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic. You will open them using your personal card—the one you use for shopping—maybe using a number known only to you.It will be impossible to lose the card, and a housebreaker will have to tamper(拨弄) with the lock or with a window. It is not very difficult to make such tampering send a signal to the computer.The computer will be more than a fireman-policeman-servant. It will be an entertainer, and most of your entertainment will come right into your home. It does now, of course, but by 2040 “entertainment” w ill mean much more. For one thing,you will be able to take part actively, rather than just watching.26. The author intends to tell us that in 2040_____.A. we will live without lights and heatersB. lights and heaters will go on and off automaticallyC. there will be no switches of lights and heatersD. we will use many more lights and heaters27 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A.

Life at Home in 2040Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Drunken driving——sometimes called America's socially accepted form of murder——has become a national epidemic（流行病）. Every hour of every day about three Americans on average are killed by drunken drivers, adding up to an incredible 250,000 over the past decades. Heavy drinking is an acceptable part of the American image and most judges used to be tolerant in court, but the drunken cases have recently caused so many well-publicized tragedies, especially involving young children, that public opinion is no longer so tolerant. Twenty states have raised the legal drinking age to 21, reversing a trend in the 1960s to reduce it to 18. After New Jersey lowered it to 18, the number of people killed by 18-20-year-old drivers more than doubled, so the state recently upped it back to 21. Reformers, however,fear raising the drinking age will have little effect unless accompanied by educational programs to help young people to develop"responsible attitudes" about drinking and teach them to resist peer pressure to drink.Though new laws have led to increased arrests and tests and, in many areas already, to a marked decline in fatalities. Some states are also penalizing bars for serving customers too many drinks. A tavern(酒馆) in Massachusetts was fined for serving six or more double brandies to a customer who was “obviously drink” and later drove off the road,killing a nine-year-old boy.31.Drunken driving has become a major problem in America because __ _.A.most Americans are heavy drinkers.B.Americans are now less shocked by road accidents.C.drinking is a socially accepted habit in America.D.accidents attract so much publicity.32.Why has the public opinion regarding drunken driving changed?A. The news media have highlighted the problem.B.Judges are giving more severe sentence.C.Drivers are more conscious of their image.D.Detailed statistics are now available.33.Statistics issued in New Jersey suggested that __ _.A.many drivers are not of legal age.B.the legal drinking age should be raised.C. all young drivers were bad drivers.D.the level of drinking increased in the 1960s.ws recently introduced in some states have _ __.A.eliminated serious accidents.B.reduced the number of convictions.C.specified the amount drivers can drink.D.prevented bars from serving drunken customers.35.Why is the problem of drunken driving difficult to solve?A.Alcohol is easily obtained.B.Legal prohibition has already failedC.Legislation alone is not sufficient..D.Drinking is linked to organized crime.IV.

2007年专升本真题试卷.doc 哎呀，一提到 2007 年专升本真题试卷，我这记忆的匣子就像被打开了一样。

记得那时候，我有个朋友叫小李，他为了专升本考试，那可是拼了老命啦！那时候，我们经常一起泡在图书馆里，他总是一脸严肃地对着那些真题试卷埋头苦做。

有一次，我凑过去看他在做 2007 年的英语真题试卷，那眉头皱得能夹死一只苍蝇。

他嘴里还念念有词：“这阅读理解咋这么难，感觉比登天还难！”我在一旁偷笑，心想这可真是个“拼命三郎”。

咱们先来说说这 2007 年专升本真题试卷里的语文部分吧。

里面的诗词鉴赏题，那可真是考验功底。

就说有一道题，让分析一首古诗里的意象和情感。

这要是没好好读过那些古诗，没理解诗人的心境，还真容易抓瞎。

还有作文题，题目出得也是很有水平，既贴近生活，又能考察综合写作能力。

数学真题试卷就更别提了，那些函数、几何的题目，一个比一个烧脑。

有一道关于函数求极值的问题，小李做了半天也没做出来，急得他抓耳挠腮。

我在旁边看着，都替他着急。

英语真题试卷里的听力部分，那语速和口音，可真是不好对付。

阅读理解的文章也是又长又复杂，词汇量不够的话，简直就是看天书。

再看看专业课的真题试卷，那更是五花八门。

比如计算机专业的，有编程题、算法题，每一道都需要深思熟虑。

回过头来想想小李，他为了能通过专升本考试，把这些 2007 年的真题试卷翻来覆去做了好几遍。

有时候做梦都在念叨题目，真是魔怔了。

其实啊，这些真题试卷就像是一道道关卡，只有勇敢地去面对，去攻克，才能有机会通关。

它们虽然难，但也正是因为有难度，才能筛选出真正努力、有实力的人。

就像小李最终通过自己的努力，成功通过了专升本考试。

我想，这2007 年的真题试卷对他来说，不仅仅是一堆题目，更是他奋斗路上的见证者。

所以啊，不管是正在准备专升本考试的朋友们，还是已经经历过的，都要记住，真题试卷是我们提升自己的好帮手，好好利用它们，说不定就能迎来属于自己的胜利呢！。

Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C and D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Passage OnePrior to the 20th century, many languages with small numbers of speakers survived for centuries. The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation.It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations into the world’s last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the world’s peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life.Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survive the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that?Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism（mastery of two languages）. Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres---at home, among friends, in community settings---and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, manysmall languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alongside global languages, rather than yield to the homogenizing（同化的）forces of globalization.Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day permit minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computer—aided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient（有活力的）,however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous（原生的，土著的）communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through language.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in __________.A．an increasingly interconnected worldB．maintaining small numbers of speakersC．relatively isolated language communitiesD．following the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in the future is _______.A．uncertain B．unrealistic C．foreseeable D．definite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_________.A．small languages become acceptable in work placesB．homogenize the world’s languages and culturesC．global languages reach home and community settingsD．speakers maintain their linguistic and cultural identityputer technology is helpful for preserving minority languages in that it_________.A．makes learning a global language unnecessaryB．facilitates the learning and using of those languagesC．raises public awareness of saving those languagesD．makes it easier for linguists to study those languages45.In the author’s view, many endangered languages are________.A．remarkably well-kept in this modern worldB．exceptionally powerful tools of communicationC．quite possible to be revived instead of dying outD．a unique way of bringing different groups togetherPassage TwoEveryone，it seems，has a health problem。

There are 3 tasks for you to fulfill.You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you areinstructed.Task 1Telephone, television, radio, and telegraph all help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or flood can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travel fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach Americas. This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, one battle, in the War of 1812 between England and the United Stats could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.36. News spreads fast because of __________.A. a peace agreementB. new technologyC. the changes of the worldD. modern transportation37. According to this passage, __________ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. latest newsB. new ideasC. fast communicationD. modern technology38. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The world is changing in size.B. The world now seems smaller because of faster communication.C. The world is actually smaller today.D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.39. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried __________.A. by airB. by seaC. by landD. by telephone and telegraph40. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement hadbeen signed __________.A. in AmericaB. in EnglandC. by both sidesD. in timeTask 2When prices are low people will buy more, and when prices are high they will buy less. Every shopkeeper knows this. But at the same time, producers want higher prices for their goods when they make more goods. How can we find the best price for the goods? The Law of Supply and Demand is the economist's answer to this question.According to this law, changes in the prices of goods cause changes in supply and demand. An increase in the price of the goods causes an increase in supply — the number of goods the producers make. Producers will make more goods when they can get higher prices for the goods. The producer makes more shoes as the price of shoes goes up. At the same time, an increase in the price of the goods causes a decrease in demand — the number of goods the consumers buy. This is because people buy less when the price is high. People buy fewer shoes as the price of shoes goes up. Conversely, a decrease in the price causes an increase in demand (people buy more shoes) and a decrease in supply (producers make fewer shoes).Business firms look at both supply and demand when they make decisions about prices and production. They look for the equilibrium point where supply equals demand. At this point, the number of shoes produced is 3000 and the price of the shoes is $ 30. $ 30 is the equilibrium price; at this price the consumers will buy all of the 3000 shoes which the producers make. If the producers increase the price of the shoes, or if they produce more than 3000 shoes, the consumers will not buy all of the shoes. The producers will have a surplus (过剩) — more supply than demand — so they must decrease the price in order to sell all of the shoes. On the other hand, if they make fewer than 3000 shoes, there will be a shoes shortage — more demand than supply — and the price will go up.According to the Law of Supply and Demand, the equilibrium price is the best price for the goods. The consumers and the producers will agree on this price because it is the only price that helps them both equally.41. Why does an increase in price cause an increase in supply?A. Consumers buy more goods when prices are high.B. Producers want to sell all of their goods.C. Producers make more goods when prices are high.D. Consumers will not buy all of the goods.42. Why does a decrease in prices cause an increase in demand?A. Producers make fewer goods when prices are low.B. Consumers buy fewer goods when prices are low.C. Consumers buy more goods when prices are low.D. Producers make more goods when prices are high.43. What do business firms look at when they make decisions about prices and production?A. The equilibrium point.B. The demand curve.C. The supply curve.D. All of the above.44. Why will consumers and producers agree on the equilibrium price?A. It is the only price for the goods.B. It will help them both equally.C. All of the goods will be sold.D. It is the lowest price.45. When will producers have a surplus of goods?A. When supply equals demand.B. When they sell all of their goods.C. When there is more demand than supply.D. When there is more supply than demand.Task 3Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth. Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and bills of one kind or another. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used. Barter was a system of direct exchange of goods. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market place that he or she considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because people's precise needs were seldom met. People needed a more practical system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods that the members of society recognized as having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, feathers, salt, elephant tusks, and tobacco had all been used. Precious metals gradually took over because, when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable, and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears words, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value — the value that the governments choose to give them, which doesn't show the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, aluminum (铝) , nickel (镍) , lead, zinc (锌) , plastic and in China even from tea leaves. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of bills, which are really "promise to pay". Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Checks and credit cards are being usedincreasingly, and it is possible to imagine a world where "money" in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be used. Even today, in the United States, many places, especially filling stations will not accept cash at night for security reasons.46.

A 300-pound adult Siberian tiger escaped from its four-meter high chain-link pen(圈)at the Toronto Zoo yesterday,on one of the busiest days of the year.Though no one was hurt, the dangerous animal was separated from the public for a time by nothing more than a four-foot fence. The escape occurred after one of the animal's handlers left the pen gate open. It prompted a swift response from officials. Staff were sent immediately to arrest the runaway tiger.General Manager Calvin White told reporters that staff were preparing for the worst. "I ordered a tranquilizer(麻醉剂)gun so we would have tranquilized her, but thankfully we didn't have to," Mr. White said. The tiger was successfully led back into its cage after the brief escape.The incident occurred during the Toronto Zoo's 28(上标)th annual Christmas Treats Walk, where admission is free in return for donations of food that does not easily go bad.Thousands of people attend each Boxing Day to see the animals fed by their handlers.36.

Zoo—Dangerous SitePassage TwoOne day in January, my uncle, my cousin and I decided to go hunting. We left by car in the afternoon. It was a Range Rover with four-wheel drive. It took us three hours to get there. After we arrived at 5:15 p. m. , we fixed the tent, then made coffee and had a short rest. After that, we went hunting, using a falcon(猎鹰). We spent two hours without finding anything. On our way back to the camp, my cousin saw a rabbit. I removed the falcon's head cover and let go of the aggressive falcon. When the rabbit saw the falcon, it ran fast, but my falcon was a professional hunter. He flew up and came down to trick the rabbit. After two minutes, the rabbit was caught. We took it back to the camp to cook our dinner. We ate the delicious food, drank Arabic coffee, and sat around the fire talking until 10:30 p. m.We left the camp the next day at 7 o'clock in the morning. We went north. However, around 10. 00 a. m., our car got stuck in the sand! We spent about three hours trying to pull out the car without any progress. Finally, we decided to walk. As it was hard for an old man or a young boy to walk more than 40 km in the desert, I decided to get help myself. I took a bottle of water with me and started to walk south alone. I knew the way well, but it was a long way in the sand. 1 walked more than four hours without stopping. When I felt so tired and thirsty, I stopped to rest. I drank all the water and slept for around two hours.When I got up, it was dark. I continued to walk south. I was worried about my uncle and cousin. Suddenly, I met a Bedouin man who was riding his camel. He took me to his house. When I had had enough rest, I asked him to take me to the road where I found a car. It took me to the city to get help. I had one day to get back to my uncle and cousin. When I got back to them, they were so happy because I had gotten help and they were able to see me again.40.

It's an easy job to walk 40 km in the desert.B. The author loved to go hunting with his family.C. The hunting trip is much longer than expected.D. To hunt in the desert one must train a falcon well.Passage ThreeThere's a professor at the University of Toronto in Canada who has come up with a term to describe the way a lot of North Americans interact these days. And now a big research study confirms it.Professor Barry Wellman's term is "networked individualism". It's not the easiest concept to grasp. In fact, the words seem to contradict each other. How can we be individualistic and networked at the same time? You need other people for network.Here's what he means. Until the Internet and e-mail came along, our social network involved flesh-and-blood relatives, friends, neighbors, and colleagues. Some of the interaction was by phone, but it was still voice to voice, person to person, in reallife.But the latest study confirms that for a lot of people, electronic interaction through the computer has replaced a great deal of social activities and person-to-person interaction. Some people worry that the Internet is turning us into isolated people who shut out other people in favor of a false world on computer screens.To the contrary, the study discovered that the Internet connects us with more real people than expected—helpful people who can give advice on careers, medical problems, raising children, and choosing a school or college. About 60 million Americans told the researcher that the Internet plays an important or crucial role in helping them deal with major life decisions.So we networked individuals are pretty tricky: we're keeping more to ourselves, while at the same time reaching out to more people, all with just the click of a computer mouse!44. The term "networked individualism" is used to refer to______.A. the way that modem people communicate on the InternetB. a social activity popular with North AmericansC. the contradiction within network communicationD. a newly invented Internet software45. With the wide use of Internet, some people fear that______.A. people will become isolatedB. interpersonal relation will disappearC. people will be controlled by networkD. there will be too many social activities46. According to the latest research, electronic interaction through computer is______.A. highly rewardingB. a waste of timeC. only informativeD. an escape from social life47. Why does the writer say networked individuals are tricky?A. Because they sometimes play tricks on people.B. Because they refuse person-to-person communication.C. Because they can stay alone while remaining sociable.D. Because they feel puzzled when communicating with each other.Passage Four"I love you, Bob." "I love you, too, Nancy." It was 2 a.m. and I was hearing my parents' voices through the thin wall separating my bedroom from theirs. Their loving words were sweet, touching— and surprising.My parents married on September 14,1940, alter a brief dating. She was nearly 30 and knew it was time to 'start a family. The handsome, well-educated man wh0 came by the, office where she worked looked like a good bet. He was attracted by her figure, her blue eyes. The romance didn't last long.Seeds of difference grew almost immediately. She liked to travel; he hated the thought. He loved golf; she did not. He was a Republican, she a loyal Democrat. They fought at the bridge table, at the dinner table, over money, over the perceived shortcomings of their respective in-laws.There was a hope that they would change once they retired, and the angry winds did calm somewhat, but what remained changed itself into bright, hard bitterness. "I always thought we'd..." my mother would begin, before launching into a precise listing of my father's faults. The complaints were recited so often, I can repeat them by heart today. As he listened, my father would say angry threats and curses in a low voice.It wasn't the happiest marriage, but as their 602 anniversary(纪念日)approached, my sister and I decided to throw a party. Sixty years was a long time, after alit why not try to make the best of things? We'd provide the cake, the balloons, the toasts, and they'd follow one rule: no fighting.The agreement was honored. We had a wonderful day. When we thought back, we found it was an important celebration, because soon after, things began to change for my parents.48. Bob married Nancy because of______.A. her nice appearanceB. her good educationC. her romantic natureD. her position as an office girl49. When the writer told the story, the mother was probably ______years old.A. 60B. 70C. 80D. 9050. What do we know about the writer's parents?A. Their marriage is a total failure.B. They had different hobbies.C. They had serious money problerm.D. They stopped quarrelling after they had children.51. The purpose {or the writer to hold the party is______.A. to recall the 60 years' marriage life of her parentsB. to stop the long fighting between her parentsC. just to celebrate her parents'60th anniversaryD. to have a good time for family's reunionPassage FiveWhat can you do to recall your dreams more often and interpret them more Clearly? The experts offer these suggestions: Develop an idea. Before you go to sleep, consciously think about a topic or a person you'd like to dream about. Raise a question that's troubling you and see how your dream responds to it.Keep track. Next to your bed, place a pen and some paper, or a tape recorder or laptop(笔记本电脑) ,to record your dreams as soon as you wake up.Try to wake up naturally, without the help of an alarm clock or barking dog that can interrupt your dream cycle. If your schedule doesn't allow you to sleep in during the week, begin your dream journey on a weekend or during a vacation.Wake up slowly. For the first moment after you wake up, lie still and keep your eyes closed, because your dream may be connected to your body position while you slept. Try to recall the dream and then store it in your memory by giving it a name like "Late for an Exam" or "My Date with Ashley Judd." When you rise, immediately write down as many images, feelings and impressions as you can.Connect the dots. To better interpret your dreams, try to make connections between your recalled dreams and recent events. Do you recognize people from the present or past? Can you detect any themes from the dream? Look for patterns over several dreams that might help explain an individual dream.Change the outcome, If you have nightmares happening again and again that make it difficult to sleep, try to change the endings. Once you wake up from a bad dream, imagine a change in the action to create a more positive outcome. If you are trapped, try to fly. In your dream, you can do what you want !52. The passage advices you to "wake up slowly"______.A. because dreaming usually happens not long before you wake upB. because sleeping posture may be related to your dreamC. so as not to connect your dreamsD. so as not to have a nightmare53.

There are 3 tasks for you to fulfill.You should read the materials carefully and do the tasks as you areinstructed.Task 1Telephone, television, radio, and telegraph all help people communicate with each other. Because of these devices, ideas and news of events spread quickly all over the world. For example, within seconds, people can know the results of an election in another country. An international football match comes into the homes of everyone with a television set. News of a disaster such as an earthquake or flood can bring help from distant countries. Within hours, help is on the way. Because of modern technology like the satellites that travel around the world, information travel fast.How has this speed of communication changed the world? To many people, the world has become smaller. Of course this does not mean that the world is actually physically smaller. It means that the world seems smaller. Two hundred years ago, communication between the continents took a long time. All news was carried on ships that took weeks or even months to cross the oceans. In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, it took six weeks for news from Europe to reach Americas. This time difference influenced people's actions. For example, one battle, in the War of 1812 between England and the United Stats could have been avoided. A peace agreement had already been signed. Peace was made in England, but the news of peace took six weeks to reach America. During these six weeks, the large and serious Battle of New Orleans was fought. Many people lost their lives after a peace treaty had been signed. They would not have died if news had come in time. In the past, communication took much more time than it does now.36. News spreads fast because of __________.A. a peace agreementB. new technologyC. the changes of the worldD. modern transportation37. According to this passage, __________ is very important to people in a disaster area.A. latest newsB. new ideasC. fast communicationD. modern technology38. Which of the following statements is TRUE?A. The world is changing in size.B. The world now seems smaller because of faster communication.C. The world is actually smaller today.D. The distance between England and America has changed since the War of 1812.39. Two hundred years ago, news between the continents was carried __________.A. by airB. by seaC. by landD. by telephone and telegraph40. The New Orleans Battle could have been avoided if the peace agreement hadbeen signed __________.A. in AmericaB. in EnglandC. by both sidesD. in timeTask 2When prices are low people will buy more, and when prices are high they will buy less. Every shopkeeper knows this. But at the same time, producers want higher prices for their goods when they make more goods. How can we find the best price for the goods? The Law of Supply and Demand is the economist's answer to this question.According to this law, changes in the prices of goods cause changes in supply and demand. An increase in the price of the goods causes an increase in supply — the number of goods the producers make. Producers will make more goods when they can get higher prices for the goods. The producer makes more shoes as the price of shoes goes up. At the same time, an increase in the price of the goods causes a decrease in demand — the number of goods the consumers buy. This is because people buy less when the price is high. People buy fewer shoes as the price of shoes goes up. Conversely, a decrease in the price causes an increase in demand (people buy more shoes) and a decrease in supply (producers make fewer shoes).Business firms look at both supply and demand when they make decisions about prices and production. They look for the equilibrium point where supply equals demand. At this point, the number of shoes produced is 3000 and the price of the shoes is $ 30. $ 30 is the equilibrium price; at this price the consumers will buy all of the 3000 shoes which the producers make. If the producers increase the price of the shoes, or if they produce more than 3000 shoes, the consumers will not buy all of the shoes. The producers will have a surplus (过剩) — more supply than demand — so they must decrease the price in order to sell all of the shoes. On the other hand, if they make fewer than 3000 shoes, there will be a shoes shortage — more demand than supply — and the price will go up.According to the Law of Supply and Demand, the equilibrium price is the best price for the goods. The consumers and the producers will agree on this price because it is the only price that helps them both equally.41. Why does an increase in price cause an increase in supply?A. Consumers buy more goods when prices are high.B. Producers want to sell all of their goods.C. Producers make more goods when prices are high.D. Consumers will not buy all of the goods.42. Why does a decrease in prices cause an increase in demand?A. Producers make fewer goods when prices are low.B. Consumers buy fewer goods when prices are low.C. Consumers buy more goods when prices are low.D. Producers make more goods when prices are high.43. What do business firms look at when they make decisions about prices and production?A. The equilibrium point.B. The demand curve.C. The supply curve.D. All of the above.44. Why will consumers and producers agree on the equilibrium price?A. It is the only price for the goods.B. It will help them both equally.C. All of the goods will be sold.D. It is the lowest price.45. When will producers have a surplus of goods?A. When supply equals demand.B. When they sell all of their goods.C. When there is more demand than supply.D. When there is more supply than demand.Task 3Money is used for buying or selling goods, for measuring value and for storing wealth. Almost every society now has a money economy based on coins and bills of one kind or another. However, this has not always been true. In primitive societies a system of barter was used. Barter was a system of direct exchange of goods. Somebody could exchange a sheep, for example, for anything in the market place that he or she considered to be of equal value. Barter, however, was a very unsatisfactory system because people's precise needs were seldom met. People needed a more practical system of exchange, and various money systems developed based on goods that the members of society recognized as having value. Cattle, grain, teeth, shells, feathers, salt, elephant tusks, and tobacco had all been used. Precious metals gradually took over because, when made into coins, they were portable, durable, recognizable, and divisible into larger and smaller units of value.A coin is a piece of metal, usually disc-shaped, which bears words, designs or numbers showing its value. Until the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, coins were given monetary worth based on the exact amount of metal contained in them, but most modern coins are based on face value — the value that the governments choose to give them, which doesn't show the actual metal content. Coins have been made of gold, silver, copper, aluminum (铝) , nickel (镍) , lead, zinc (锌) , plastic and in China even from tea leaves. Most governments now issue paper money in the form of bills, which are really "promise to pay". Paper money is obviously easier to handle and much more convenient in the modern world. Checks and credit cards are being usedincreasingly, and it is possible to imagine a world where "money" in the form of coins and paper currency will no longer be used. Even today, in the United States, many places, especially filling stations will not accept cash at night for security reasons.46. Barter here means __________.A. exchanging goods for goodsB. exchanging money for goodsC. exchanging goods for moneyD. exchanging sheep for anything in the market47. Why were precious metals gradually used for making coins?A. Because they were durable and portable.B. Because they were recognizable.C. Because they were divisible.D. All of the above.48. Coins were given value according to the exact amount of metals contained in them__________.A. between the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesB. after the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesC. during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuriesD. before the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries49. Promises to pay means __________.A. opportunities to payB. necessities to payC. obligations to payD. possibilities to pay50. A world without any money in the form of coins and paper is __________.A. suitableB. possibleC. avoidableD. necessaryReading Comprehension ( 2 ) (5points, 1 points each)Task 4Directions:In this task, there is a passage with 5 questions (51 through 55). Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions in the fewest possible words.The answer should be written after corresponding numbers on the AnswerSheet.Sam and Joe were astronauts. There was once a very dangerous trip and the more experienced astronauts knew there was only a small chance of coming back alive. Sam and Joe, however, thought it would be exciting though a little dangerous. "We are the best men for the job," they said to the boss. "There may be problems, but we can find the answers." "They are the last people I'd trust," thought the boss. " But all the other astronauts have refused to go. "Once they were in space, Joe had to go outside to make some repairs. When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again, no answer came. Then he hit the door as he could and finally a voice said, "Who' s there?" "It's me. Who else could it be?" shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again.51. Why were most of the astronauts unwilling to go on the trip?They thought they __________________________________.52. Why were Sam and Joe chosen?They were the only men who _________________________.53. What did the two astronauts think the trip would be like?_________________________________________________.54. Joe didn't want to work with Sam again. What's the reason?Sam was possibly___________________________________.55.
