Whenever we turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine, we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type of orange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us to notice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us want what they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed to advertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisements everywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part of our everyday lives. But do that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that the special power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attention to it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising company for many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected by them. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lower our defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in and stored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that the effects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of time they have a powerful effect on the masses.A market analyst says that all advertising, no matter how innocent, is misleading in some way.When asked about the power of advertising in research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almost everyone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of ads they see every day affect them.【】51. Ads exist to make people want .A. a new type of orange juiceB. X-brand jeansC. to watch the latest filmD. what they advertise【】52. The more we see ads, the less we .A. pay attention to themB. feel tired of themC. neglect themD. put up with them【】53. Although we may think we are not affected by them, Dr. Krugman believes that advertisements affect .A. all of usB. most of usC. some of usD. a few individuals【】54. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing ads, we begin to .A. like themB. be on guard against themC. accept themD. dislike them【】55. When asked about the power of ads, most people agree that ads are ineffective on .A. individualsB. massesC. othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”【】56. From the passage, we understand that .A.the author did not understand the importance of giving until hewas in late thirtiesB.the author was like most people who were mostly receiversrather than giversC.the author received the same education as most people duringhis childhoodD.the author liked most people as they looked upon life as aprocess of getting【】57. According to the author .A.giving means you will lack moneyB.the excitement of giving can bring you moneyC.you don’t have to be rich in order to giveD.when you give away money, you will be rich【】58.The author wrote a note of appreciation to the post office because.A. he knew what such a note would mean to the post office.B. he had discovered giving-away made life all the more exciting.C.he believed he would get something back by doing so.D.the postman delivered an important letter in time.【】59. When the author needed a post office box, .A.he had to put his name on a waiting listB.he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciationC.many people had applied for post-office boxes before himD.he asked the postmaster to make one for him【】60. In reply to the postmaster’s question, the author said .A.it was the special deliveryB.it was the post-office boxC.it was the note of appreciation he wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33 percent―from 8.8 million to 11.7 million―according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.”Said Arnold E.Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London. “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. “T he literature,”says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.【】61. The passage is mainly concerned with .A. a study of the Chicago-based Market Research CorporationB.one of life’s essentialstest figures of people who don’t eat breakfastD.breakfast and human health【】62. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that .A.several studies have been done in the past few yearsB.not eating breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC.adults have especially made studies in this fieldD.eating little in the morning may be good for health【】63. In the third paragraph, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” means .A.anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB.not giving people breakfast improves performanceC.people having breakfast do improve their performanceD.having breakfast does not improve performance, either【】64. The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to .A.stories about breakfastB.written works on a particular subjectC.any printed materialsD.the modern novels of American【】65. What is implied but not stated by the author is that .A.not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenB.breakfast does not affect performanceC.Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition inLondonD.People who don’t eat breakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of people do their jobs more effectively. For example, they can help managers decide on a future course of action, and they can then help with the follow-up checks on performance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate and timely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do a better job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not need to spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggered report if actural performance varies from what was planned. The time saved in controlling may allow managers to give more attention to employees’ concerns, and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气)。

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。

Choose the answer that best completes the sentence.Passage 1Advertising follows us everywhere. Wheneverwe turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine,we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type oforange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us tonotice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us wantwhat they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed toadvertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisementseverywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part ofour everyday lives. But does that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that thespecial power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attentionto it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising companyfor many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected bythem. D. Krugman believe that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lowerour defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in andstored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that theeffects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of timethey have a powerful effect on the masses.When asked about the power of advertisingin research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almosteveryone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of adsthey see every day affect them.51. Ads exist to make people want ________ .A. a new type of orangejuiceB.

When asked about the power of ads, mostpeople agree that ads are ineffective on ________ .A.individualsB. massesC.othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to lookupon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that Imade this important discovery giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need notworry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an ideafor improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I stepin and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made aboutgiving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this worldwithout getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpectedform. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important specialdelivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrotethe postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a postoffice box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window thatthere were no boxes left, and that myname would have to go on a long waitinglist. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He hadoverheard our conversation. “Wasn't it you that wrote us that letter a year agoabout delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “ Well, youcertainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make onefor you. You don't know what a letter like that means to us. We usually getnothing but complaints.”56. From the passage, we understand that________ .A. the author did not understand theimportance of giving until he was in late thirtiesB. the author was like most peoplewho were mostly receivers rather than giversC. the author received the sameeducation as most people during his childhoodD. the author liked most people asthey looked upon life as a process of getting57.

In reply to the postmaster's question,the author said ________ .A. it was the specialdeliveryB. it was the post-office boxC. it was the note of appreciationhe wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been broughtup to believe that a good breakfast is one of life's essentials. Eatingbreakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary asputting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of foodfirst thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all theefforts, the still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest yearsfor which figures are available, the number of people who didn't have breakfastincreased by 33 percent-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million-according to theChicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about noteating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the lastfew years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong withomitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.” saidA mold E. Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth Collegein London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast tobetter health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of therecent work involves children, not adults. “The literature,” says one researcher,Dr. Emesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.61. The passage is mainly concernedwith ________ .A. a study of theChicago-based Market Research CorporatioB. one of life's essentialsC. latest figures of peoplewho don't eat breakfastD. breakfast and human health62. For those who do not take breakfast,the good news is that ________ .A. several studies have beendone in the past few yearsB. not eating breakfast does no harm toone's healthC. adults have especially made studies inthis fieldD. Eating little in the morning may be good forhealth63. In the third paragraph, “nor doesgiving people breakfast improve performance,” means ________ .A. anyone without breakfastdoes improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfastimproves performanceC. people having breakfast do improvetheir performanceD. having breakfast does not improve performance,either64. The word “literature” in the lastsentence refers to ________ .A. stories aboutbreakfastB. written works on a particular subjectC. any printedmaterialsD. the modern novels of American65. What is implied but not stated by theauthor is that ________ .A. not eating breakfast mightaffect the health of childrenB. breakfast does not affectperformanceC. Professor Bender oncetaught college courses in nutrition in LondonD. People who don't eatbreakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of peopledo their jobs more effectively. For example, they canhelp managers decide on afuture course of action, and they can then help with the follow up checks onperformance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate andtimely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do abetter job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not needto spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggeredreport if actual performance varies from what was planned. The time saved incontrolling may allow managers to give more attention to employees' concerns,and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气).But employment benefits certainly aren't restrictedto managers. Healthcare researchers and other scientists also use computers toconduct research into complex problem areas that couldn't otherwise be wyers use online legal data banks to locate precedent(先前的) cases inorder to serve clients better. Salespeople can receive more timely informationabout products in stock, can promise customers that their sales orders will behandled promptly, and can thus improve their sales performance because of thecomputer system. And the job duties of some office and factory workers havechanged from routine, repetitive operations to more varied and appealing tasksthrough computer usage. For example, office workers who understand textprocessing, computing, and data communication usually have vital roles and aregiven critical office functions to perform.66. Which of the following examples showsthe controlling function of a computer?A. Helping managers decide ona future course of actionB. Helping managers check ifplanned goals are reachedC. Helping managers save timein writing a reportD. Helping managers design aspreadsheet package67.

河南专升本07年英语作文**English Analysis and Chinese Expansion of the 2007 English Essay for Henan Junior College to Bachelor Degree Promotion**In the year 2007, the English essay prompt for Henan Junior College to Bachelor Degree Promotion exams was a pivotal moment for many students as it required a profound understanding of both the English language and the cultural context of Henan province. The essay topic, while not explicitly stated here, likely drew upon themes that were relevant to the region, possibly touching on social, economic, or cultural aspects unique to Henan.To approach this essay effectively, students would have needed to demonstrate a strong command of vocabulary and grammar while also exhibiting a nuanced understanding of Henan's identity. They were expected to write with clarity, coherence, and a sense of purpose, making their arguments relevant and engaging.In the opening paragraph, it was crucial to introduce the topic smoothly, setting the stage for the discussionthat would follow. This might have involved a brief overview of Henan's history, culture, or current affairs, serving as a backdrop for the more specific arguments that would ensue.The body of the essay would have needed to delve deeper into specific aspects of Henan, potentially exploring the province's role in China's development, its unique cultural contributions, or the challenges it faces in modernization. It was important to present these ideas in a balanced manner, acknowledging both the positive aspects and any challenges that the province might encounter.In the conclusion, students were expected to tie up the loose ends, summing up their arguments and leaving the reader with a lasting impression. This might have involved a restatement of the main points, a final analysis of their significance, or a look towards the future of Henan and its potential to continue growing and evolving.Expanding upon this essay in Chinese, we might delve into the rich history of Henan, tracing its roots back through the ages to understand how it has shaped the province's identity today. We could explore the diversecultural landscapes of Henan, from its ancient temples and historical sites to its vibrant modern cities, eachreflecting a unique aspect of the province's heritage.We might also discuss the economic boom that Henan has experienced in recent years, particularly in its industrial and agricultural sectors. This growth has not come without its challenges, however, such as environmental degradation and urban-rural disparities. It is crucial to acknowledge these issues while also highlighting the province's efforts to address them.In conclusion, the story of Henan is one of constant transformation and progress. As China continues to rise on the global stage, Henan stands poised to play a pivotalrole in its future development. By understanding both the challenges and opportunities facing the province, we can gain a deeper insight into not only Henan's past andpresent but also its promising future.综上所述，2007年河南专升本英语作文不仅是对学生英语语言能力的考察，更是对他们对河南地区文化、历史和发展认知的检验。

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. The tiger escape happened______.A. owing to the lack of foodB. due to its separation from the publicC. because of the handler's neglect of dutyD. as a result of the damaged chain and fence37.

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. Which word can best describe the first evening of their hunting trip?A. Disappointed.B. Enjoyable.C. Comfortable.D. Exhausted.41. Why didn't the three walk back together after the car got stuck in the sand?A. They didn't have enough food and water.B. The writer knew where to get a camel or a car.C. The writer knew a Bedouin who lived nearby would give help.D. The long desert walk was too hard for the young and the old.42. How did the writer finally get out of the desert?A. He was picked up by a car.B. A camel took him to the road.C. A passer-by Bedouin helped him.D. His uncle and cousin found and rescued him.43. What can be inferred from the story?A. 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.

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.

When several graduates apply for the same job, is often given to whoever is better qualified for it.A. superiorityB. privilegeC. majorityD. priorityPart Ⅱ.Read Comprehension(50 points)Directions:In this part, there are 4 passages. Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneLearning 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… not to be inhibited(拘谨；抑制)… not to be nervous…”Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowdays, 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 reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.It is the same in writing. (81)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. Y ou must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach 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. Y ou 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 he r. 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.”41. The main task of public speech course is to .A. teach spoken language expressionsB. teach how to use gestures to assist speechC. help the learners overcome nervousnessD. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how to speak in public in that a writer should .A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first placeB. watch his or her grammar and vocabularyC. collect a lot of dats before writingD. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing43. In the author’s opinion, .A. writing needs more experience and skill than public speakingB. both writing and public speaking require effortC. writing is imaginativeD. public speaking is not so natural as writing44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Not many students feel the need to learn public speaking.B. Training is necessary before you can speak with a script.C. In public speaking ,the audience are more nervous than the speaker.D. Writing is just like making a public speech on paper.45. This selection is mainly about learning how to .A. make a public speechB. talk on paperC. behave properly in public speechD. express strong emotions on paper Passage TwoIn the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. (82)Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. V aluable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydro electric power.Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new underseateachnology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year 2000, experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.46. What is the best title for the passage?A. Needs of ManB. Sources of EnergyC. Sea HarvestD. Sea Exploring Technology47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because .A. man cannot travel farther into spaceB. resources on land are running shortC. it’s a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancient people used to explore the sea48. Why does the author mention a steamship?A. To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on land.B. To show that a steamship is better than other kinds of ship.C. To argue that man should use steamships more than other means of transportation.D. To illustrate that man can make use of sources of energy from the sea.49. It can be inferred from the passage that .A. man hasn’t completely cultivated the riches of the seaB. technology for exploring the sea has been foundC. planting rice in the sea will be made possible in a short timeD. in the near future man can live on the ocean floor50. The word “exploit” in the last paragraph could best be replaced by .A. evaluateB. developC. gatherD. scatterPassage ThreeY our passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. In Europe, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is final proof of identity in almost every country in the world.In 1979, almost 15 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if you travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. Y ou may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket, and check into a hotel or casino. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires, or war.Don’t confuse passports and visas. (83) Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and V enezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of thecountry you wish to visit.Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New Y ork, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you must submit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.51. The main purpose of the passage is to .A. discuss traveling in other countriesB. distinguish between passports and visasC. discuss the financial uses of a passportD. provide information about passports52. Passports are beneficial for .A. exchanging currencyB. using a credit cardC. checking into hotelsD. all of the above53. We can infer from the passage that .A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenB. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenC. only countries like Argentina, Brazil and V enezuela now require visas from U.S. citizensD. countries like Argentina, Brazil and V enezuela only require visas from U.S. citizens54. The passage suggests that .A. most people don’t realize how important passports areB. passports aren’t important once you are in the country you’ve chosen to visitC. passports are simple to obtain through the mailD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country55. As used in this passage, the word “valid”(Para. 2) means .A. foreignB. legalC. monetaryD. illegalPassage FourI hear many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. Y ou should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching(抓住) at one another’s hands for reassurance.They claim that they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They are off in new directions in music, but somehow they all end up huddled(拥挤) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting inthusand such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(茧) into a larger cocoon.(84)It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days, every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today’s parents hav e come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. (85)All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenagerwho wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. Y ou may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. Y ou may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. Y ou may have some thoughts that you don’t care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularit y will come with the people who respect you for who you are. That’s the only kind of popularity that really counts.56. The author’s purpose in writing this passage is to tell .A. readers how to be popular with people aroundB. teenagers how to learn to decide things for themselvesC. parents how to control and guide their childrenD. people how to understand and respect each other57. According to the author, many teenagers think they are brave enough to act on their own, but, in fact, most of them .A. have much difficulty understanding each otherB. lack confidenceC. dare not cope with problems single handedD. are very much afraid of getting lost58. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. There is no popularity that really counts.B. What many parents are doing is in fact hindering their children from finding their own paths.C. It is not necessarily had for a teenager to disagree with his or her classmats.D. Most teenagers claim that they want to do what they like to, but they are actually doing the same.59. The author thinks of advertisements as .A. convincingB. influentialC. instructiveD. authoritative60. During the teenage years, one should learn to .A. differ from others in as many ways as possibleB. get into the right season and become popularC. find one’s real selfD. rebel against parents and the popularity wavePart Ⅲ.Cloze Test(20 points)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.In China, it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the west, this question is generally regarded as impolite. This is particularly true 61 women, and even more 62 if the inquirer is a man. However, it is very 63 to ask children their age, and some adults may not mind 64 either. In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 65 their age, especially if they feel they look young 66 their age. Nevertheles s, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 67 question like “How old are you?” If elderly pepole want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they mayeasily 68 the topic themselves, and ask the other person to 69 how old they are. 70 such a situation, it is quite acceptable to discuss age 71. They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than 72 that they look very old! 73 westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 74 that they are not interested to know how old other people are. They may ask 75 for the information, 76 they may try to 77 the topic indirectly. Sometimes discussions about educational 78 and the number of years of working experience may provide some 79, but this is not always the 80.61. A. with B. for C. of D. to62.

The fact is that familymembers provide over 80% of the care that elderly people need. In most cases the elderlylive in their own homes. A very small percentage of America’s elderly live in nursinghomes.公共英语试卷第 4 页Samuel Preston, a sociologist at the University of Pennsylvania, studied how the American family is changing. He reported that by the time the average American couple reaches about 40 years of age, their parents are usually still alive. The statistics show the change in lifestyles and responsibilities of aging （老龄化）Americans. The average middle-aged couple can look forward to caring for elderly parents sometime after their own children have grown up. Moreover, because people today live longer after an illness than people did years ago, family members must provide long-term care. These facts also mean that after caregivers provide for their elderly parents, who will eventually die, they will be old and may require care too. When they do, their spouses (配偶) will probably take care of them because they have had fewer children than their parents did.Because Americans are living longer than ever, more social workers have begun to study ways of caregiving to improve the care of the elderly. They have found that all caregivers share a common characteristic: They believe that they are the best people for the job. The social workers have also discovered three basic reasons why the caregivers take on the responsibility of caring for an elderly, dependent relative. Many caregivers believe they had an obligation（职责）to help their relatives. Some think that helping others makes them feel more useful. Others hope that by helping someone now, they will deserve care when they become old and dependent.【】51. Samuel Preston’s study shows that __________.[A] lifestyles and responsibilities of the elderly are not changing[B] most American couples over 40 have no living parents[C] middle-aged Americans have to take care of their children and parents at thesame time[D] elderly people may need care for a long time because they live longer after anillness【】52. Who will most probably take care of the middle-aged Americans when they need care themselves?[A] They themselves. [C] Their children.[B] Their close friends. [D] Their husbands or wives.【】53. All caregivers believe that they can __________.[A] care for their elderly parents better than any other people[B] keep closer to their old parents by this means[C] do much better if they have a job as social workers[D] improve the care of the elderly with the help of the social workers【】54. Which of the following is NOT a reason why people look after their relatives?[A] They feel they are of use to other people.[B] They want to set an example to their children.[C] They think it is their duty to help their relatives.[D] They hope they deserve care when they need it.公共英语试卷第 5 页【】55. What is the main idea of the passage?[A] Most old people live longer today after an illness than people did years ago.[B] Many old people are put into nursing homes by their families, who do notvisit them regularly.[C] Most elderly people are taken care of by their families, who assume theresponsibility for different reasons.[D] Most elderly people are satisfied with the better ways of caregiving that socialworkers have come up with.Passage TwoI once knew a young man, nineteen years of age, who lived with absolute outward (外表的) confidence and self-possession for a number of years before I discovered that he could not read or write. His various methods of trick, which were also skills of self-protection, were so skillful and so desperate (绝望) that neither I nor any of his other adult friends were aware of his entire helplessness in face of written words until we went to dinner one night at a local restaurant—and suddenly discovered that he could not read.Even here, it was not the first time we went out to eat, but something like the second or third, that Peter’s desperation shocked me. The first time, he was clever enough to cover the truth. He studied the menu for a moment, then looked up to the waitress and asked her if he could have “just a coke and a hamburger”. He told me later that he had done the same thing many times before and that he had learned to act as if he were examining the menu: “Then I ask for a coke and a hamburger… Sometimes they give me a hamburger on a plate with salad and potatoes…Then I ask them for a ro ll and make my own hamburger.”As we began to go out to eat more frequently, Peter would ask to go to Howard Johnson’s. I soon discovered the r eason for his choice: The photographs, attached in cellophane (玻璃纸) containers to each of the standard items on the menu, could help him not to struggle with the shape of words at all. Howard Johnson’s, whether intentionally or not, had provided the perfect escape for the endangered pride of an adult who was illiterate (文盲).【】56. When he went to a restaurant, Peter would __________.[A] pretend that he could not read or write[B] pretend to be studying the menu[C] be desperate for help from other people[D] protect himself by playing a musical instrument【】57. The young man was not found to be illiterate until __________.[A] he dined out with his adult friends at Howard Johnson’s[B] he could no longer come up with various ways of deception[C] he had dinner with his friends at a certain local restaurant for the second orthird time公共英语试卷第 6 页[D] he was not careful enough to be aware of his entire helplessness in face ofwritten words【】58. What did the young man usually have at a restaurant?[A] Standard items on the menu. [C] Foods that other people ordered.[B] A hamburger made by himself. [D] A coke and a hamburger.【】59. The word “self-possession” (Para.1) probably means __________.[A] self-confidence [C] self-discipline[B] self-consciousness [D] self-devotion【】60. Why did the young man like to go to Howard Johnson’s?[A] Howard Johnson’s provided a perfect escape when anything dangerousshould happen.[B] The menu at Howard Johnson’s gave a clear introduction of the food itserved.[C] The photographs attached to the main items on the menu helped conceal hisilliteracy.[D] He would feel at ease because eat ers at Howard Johnson’s were all adultnon-readers.Passage ThreeAfter practicing as a surgeon for several years, Dr. Ginoux decided to apply for membership in the American College of Surgeons (美国外科医生学会), a highly selective and distinguished (著名的) professional organization.As part of the application procedure (手续), Dr. Ginoux was asked to prepare a list of all the operations performed in the previous even years. Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began to feel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have given one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have… Would th e doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.【】61. Dr. Ginoux was working in _______.[A] a large city [C] an area far from any big city[B] the American College of Surgeons [D] a selective organization【】62. It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux was ________.[A] a member in that organization[B] a well-trained surgeon[C] a graduate from American College of Surgeons[D] a distinguished surgeon in America公共英语试卷第7 页【】63. When she was filling the application forms, Dr. Ginoux began to be _______.[A] realistic [B] depressed [C] puzzled [D] decisive 【】64. The application forms must include________.[A] the decision procedure [C] the best technique[B] the college achievements [D] a list of advice and judgments 【】65. When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed because________.[A] she didn’t perf orm enough operations[B] some operations were unsuccessful[C] she didn’t get advice from the selection committee[D] she was doubtful about her previous operationsPassage FourAre some people born clever and others born stupid? Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience? Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given to us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people is, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence will be completely different. If, on the other hand, we take two identical twins, they will very likely be as intelligent as each other. Relations like brothers and sisters, parents and children, usually have similar intelligence, and this clearly suggests that intelligence depend on birth.Imagine now that we take two identical twins and put them in different environments. We might send one, for example, to a university and the other to a factory where the work is boring. We would soon find differences in their intelligence developing, and this indicates that environment as well as birth plays a part. This conclusion is also suggested by the fact that people who live in close contact with each other, but who are not related at all are likely to have similar degree of intelligence.【】66.If a child is born with low intelligence, he can ________.[A] not reach his intelligence in his life[B] go beyond his intelligence limits in rich surroundings[C] still become a genius if he should be given special education[D] become a genius【】67.“If we take two unrelated people at random from the population” (Para. 2 ) means if we ________ .[A] choose two persons with different intelligence公共英语试卷第8 页[B] choose two persons who are relative[C] take out two persons of close relationship[D] pick any two persons【】68.The example of the twins going to a university and to a factory separately shows ________ .[A] the part that birth plays[B] the importance of their positions[C] the role of environment on intelligence[D] the importance of their intelligence【】69.The writer is in favor of the view that man’s intelligence is given to him ________ .[A] neither at birth nor through education [C] through education[B] both at birth and through education [D] at birth【】70.The best title of this passage can be ________ .[A] Effect of Education [C] Intelligence[B] Dependence on Environment [D] SurroundingsDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For eachblank there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Youshould choose the ONE that best fits into the passage and write thecorresponding letter in the brackets“【】”.Earthquakes are something that most people fear.

河南专升本英语历年考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Title: My Big Sis's English Exam Adventures!Hi there, friends! It's me, Little Tommy, and boy oh boy, do I have a story to tell you today! It's all about my big sister, Emily, and her journey through the Henan Academic Degree Entrance Exam for English. Buckle up, 'cause it's gonna be a wild ride!You see, Emily has been studying real hard for this exam. She's been burying her nose in those thick books, writing practice essays, and even talking to herself in English (which sometimes sounds pretty funny, if you ask me!). But she篇2English Tests Are Hard But Fun!Hi friends! My name is Xiaoming and I'm a student in 5th grade. I really like English class because I find learning a new language to be really exciting and challenging. My older cousin Dandan is currently studying at a junior college and she has totake a big English exam soon if she wants to upgrade to a university. She's been stressing out about it a lot lately!Dandan showed me some past exam questions that students have had to answer on this English test for upgrading to university. They look super hard! But I still think it's fun to take a look at them. My cousin promised me red bean buns if I can get some of the questions right, so I'm really going to try my best.Here's one of the reading comprehension passages from a few years ago:"The Wright brothers were the first to successfully design, build, and fly an aircraft. On December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright's aircraft traveled 120 feet in 12 seconds near Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. This first powered, sustained, and controlled airplane flight is one of the most celebrated events in the history of technology."After reading that, there were multiple choice questions like:The Wright brothers' aircraft flew for how many seconds?A) 10 secondsB) 12 secondsC) 15 secondsD) 20 secondsHmm...That one seems pretty easy! The passage said it flew for 12 seconds, so the right answer must be B!Another question was:Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage?A) The Wright brothers designed an aircraftB) The aircraft was the first to be poweredC) The event occurred in North CarolinaD) The event was in 1905For this one, I need to read the passage carefully again. It says the flight was in 1903, not 1905. So the answer that is NOT mentioned is D!Some other reading comprehension passages were about topics like environmental protection, advancements in technology, and famous historical figures. The questions asked specific details about the key points from the passages.My personal favorite types of questions are the vocabulary ones! Like defining common words or choosing synonyms. For example:Prohibit most nearly means:A) AllowB) ForbidC) RequestD) RequireI'm pretty sure prohibit means forbid, so B is correct! Vocabulary is one of my strengths.Then there are some grammar questions that look like:The singer _____ very popular when she released her new album.A) becomeB) becameC) has becomeD) becomingHmm...This is testing verb tenses. The simple past "became" is probably the right answer here for B.My cousin also showed me some writing prompts where you have to write a short essay or response. Like "Describe your plansfor the future after graduating university" or "What discovery or invention has had the biggest impact on the world?"Those look really hard! I'm not sure I could write a good university-level essay yet. But I'll keep practicing my English writing skills.Overall, the English exams have reading, vocabulary, grammar, and writing sections. They really test your overall language abilities! No wonder Dandan is stressed - it's a lot of material to master.She also showed me some sample speaking prompts where you have to respond out loud in English, like:"What are the advantages and disadvantages of social media? Provide specific examples to support your perspective."Yikes! I'm not sure I could give a coherent response to that one yet. Speaking is probably the hardest part for me right now.My cousin has been studying old exams over and over, making flashcards, and working with a tutor. I really admire her hard work and perseverance! Mastering English at that level seems incredibly difficult.She told me the scoring is really strict too.
