6月英语四级真题及答案(word版)(4)Section BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The End of the Book?[A] Amazon, by far the largest bookseller in the country, reported on May 19 that it is now selling more books in its electronic Kindle format than in the old paper-and-ink format. That is remarkable, considering that the Kindle has only been around for four years. E-books now account for 14 percent of all book sales in the country and are increasing far faster than overall book sales. E-book sales are up 146 percent over last year, while hardback sales increased 6 percent and paperbacks decreased 8 percent.[B] Does this spell the doom of the physical book? Certainly not immediately, and perhaps not at all. What it does mean is that the book business will go through a transformation in the next decade or so more profound than any it has seen since Gutenberg introduced printing from moveable type in the 1450s.[C] Physical books will surely become much rarer in the marketplace. Mass market paperbacks, which have been declining for years anyway, will probably disappear, as will hardbacks for mysteries, thrillers, “romance fiction,” etc. Such books, which only rarely end up in permanent collections, either private or public, will probably only be available as e-books within a few years. Hardback and trade paperbacks for “serious” nonfiction and fiction will surely last longer. Perhaps it will become the mark of an author to reckon with that he or she is still published in hard copy.[D] As for children’s books, who knows? Children’s books are like dog food in that the purchasers are not the consumers, so the market (and the marketing) is inherently strange.[E] For clues to the book’s future, let’s look at some examples of technological change and see what happened to the old technology.[F] One technology replaces another only because the new technology is better, cheaper, or both. The greater the difference, the sooner and more thoroughly the new technology replaces the old. Printing with moveable type on paper dramatically reduced the cost of producing a book compared with the old-fashioned ones handwritten on vellum, which comes from sheepskin. A Bible―to be sure, a long book―required vellum made from 300 sheepskins and countless man-hours of labor. Before printing arrived, a Bible cost more than a middle-class house. There were perhaps 50,000 books in all of Europe in 1450. By 1500 there were 10 million.[G] But while printing quickly caused the hand written book to die out, handwriting lingered on (继续存在) well into the 16th century. Very special books are still occasionally produced on vellum, but they are one-of-a-kind show pieces.[H]Sometimes a new technology doesn’t drive t he old one out, but only parts of it while forcing the rest to evolve. The movies were widely predicted to drive live theater out of the marketplace, but they didn’t, because theater turned out to have qualities movies could not reproduce. Equally, TV was supposed to replace movies but, again, did not.[I] Movies did, however, fatally impact some parts of live theater. And while TV didn’t kill movies, it did kill second-rate pictures, shorts, and cartoons.[J] Nor did TV kill radio. Comedy and drama shows (“Jack Benny,” “Amos and Andy,” “The Shadow”) all migrated to television. But because you can’t drive a car and watch television at the same time, rush hour became radio’s prime, while music, talk, and news radio greatly enlarged their audiences. Radio is today a very different business than in the late 1940s and a much larger one.[K] Sometimes old technology lingers for centuries because of its symbolic power. Mounted cavalry (骑兵) replaced the chariot (二轮战车) on the battlefield around 1000 BC. But chariots maintained their placein parades and triumphs right up until the end of the Roman Empire 1,500 years later. The sword hasn’t had a military function for a hundred years, but is still part of an officer’s full-dress uniform, precisely because a sword alway s symbolized “an officer and a gentleman.”[L] Sometimes new technology is a little cranky (不稳定的) at first. Television repairman was a common occupation in the 1950s, for instance. And so the old technology remains as a backup. Steamships captured the North Atlantic passenger business from sail in the 1840s because of its much greater speed. But steamships didn’t lose their sails until the 1880s, because early marine engines had a nasty habit of breaking down. Until ships became large enough (and engines small enough) to mount two engines side by side, they needed to keep sails. (The high cost of steam and the lesser need for speed kept the majority of the world’s ocean freight moving by sail until the early years of the 20th century.)[M] Then there is the fireplace. Central heating was present inevery upper-and middle-class home by the second half of the 19th century. But functioning fireplaces remain to this day a powerful selling pointin a house or apartment. I suspect the reason is a deep-rooted love of the fire. Fire was one of the earliest major technological advances for humankind, providing heat, protection, and cooked food (which is much easier to cat and digest). Human control of fire goes back far enough (over a million years) that evolution could have produced a genetic leaning towards fire as a central aspect of human life.[N] Books―especially books the average person couldafford―haven’t been around long enough to produce evolutionary changein humans. But they have a powerful hold on many people nonetheless, a hold extending far beyond their literary content. At their best, theyare works of art and there is a tactile(触觉的)pleasure in books necessarily lost in e-book versions. The ability to quickly thumbthrough pages is also lost. And a room with books in it induces, atleast in some, a feeling not dissimilar to that of a fire in thefireplace on a cold winter’s night.[O] For these reasons I think physical books will have a longer existence as a commercial product than some currently predict. Like swords, books have symbolic power. Like fireplaces, they induce a sense of comfort and warmth. And, perhaps, similar to sails, they make auseful back-up for when the lights go out.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

您目前旳位置: 首页 > 英语四级 > 英语四级作文 > 英语四级作文综合辅导 > 正文英语四级图表作文旳类型及参照范文图表作文也是四(六)级考试中常见, 并且被认为是一种较难旳作文形式。
图表作文就是把非文字信息(一般为多种图表表达旳数字信息等)转换成文字信息旳一种作文。
它规定我们用文字来描述非文字性旳图表或对图表显示旳关系作解释阐明。
下面我们先来看一看图表作文旳类型。
第一节图表作文旳类型图表作文可分为两大类: 表作文和图作文。
表作文表格(Table)可以使大量数据系统化, 便于阅读、比较。
表格常由标题(Title)、表头(Boxhead)(表格旳第一行)、侧目(Stub)(表格左边旳第一列)和主体(Body)部分(表格旳其他部分)等部分构成。
如下表:用表格体现旳信息详细精确, 并且表格中旳各项均按一定规律排列。
阅读表格时要注意找出表格中各个项目旳互相关系, 表格中各个项目旳变化规律。
例如, 上面旳表格中旳数字阐明, 和1978年相比, 1983年大学入学旳人数在增长, 而小学旳入学人数在减少。
弄清晰这些变化规律也就读懂了表格旳内容。
图作文图作文又可分为三种: 圆形图作文、曲线图作文和条状图作文。
(1) 圆形图作文圆形图(Pie chart)也称为饼状图或圆面分割图。
圆形图由于比较形象和直观, 各部分空间大小差异轻易辨别, 因此常用来表达总量和各分量之间旳比例关系。
整个圆表达总量, 楔形块表达分量。
有时圆形图尚有数值表, 两者结合可把各分量表达得更精确、清晰。
例如:Thi.i..pi.char.o.th.averag.weekl.expenditur.o..famil.i.Grea.Britain.A.ca.b.se.fr o.th.chart.th.mai.expenditur.o.a.averag.Britis.famil.i.spen.o.food.whic.account. fo.25.o.it.tota.expenditure.Th.nex.tw.significan.expendin.item.ar.transpor.an.ho using.whic.ar.15.an.12.respectively.I.w.tak.int.accoun.clothin.an.footwear.whic. make.u.10%.th.fou.essential.o.life.tha.is.food.transport.housing.an.clothin.an.f ootwear.amoun.t.62.o.th.tota.expenditure.(2) 曲线图作文曲线图(Line graph)也称为线性图或坐标图。

Thousands of tomatoes, weighing over 100 metric tons in total, are dropped off on the streets, turning the whole town into a huge red mess.This tradition is believed to date back to the end of World War II when some young people decided to mock the local town council's decision by organizing a massive tomato war. Over the years, the event grew and became so popular that the organizers had to limit the number of participants for safety reasons.To take part in the Tomato fight festival, all you need is a ticket, a pair of goggles to protect your eyes from the juice and seeds, and the desire to have fun. In the one hour of tomato throwing, people experience an indescribable excitement and joy. By the end of the hour, everyone is covered in tomatopaste, making it impossible to even recognize their friends or family. After the fight, the whole town is hosed down and cleaned up so that life can continue as usual.In addition to being a popular event for locals and tourists, the Tomato fight festival also serves a purpose. All the tomatoes used in the festival are not suitable for consumption, as they are overripe or otherwise unmarketable. Instead of letting them go to waste, they are used for a completely different type of enjoyment — splattering each other with tomato pulp.While it may seem like a waste of food, the Tomato fight festival demonstrates the value of creativity and finding joy in unconventional ways. People from all over the world gather to participate in this unique event, fostering a sense of community and creating unforgettable memories.31. What do participants do in the Tomato fight festival?A) They mock the local town council.B) They throw tomatoes at each other.C) They celebrate the end of World War II.D) They compete to grow the biggest tomatoes.32. How does the Tomato fight festival affect the town of Buñol?A) It transforms the town into a red mess.B) It promotes local agriculture.C) It attracts tourists from all over the world.D) It causes serious safety concerns.33. Why did the organizers have to limit the number of participants over the years?A) To secure enough tomatoes for everyone.B) To prevent damage to public property.C) To increase the excitement and joy of the event.D) To ensure the safety of the participants.34. What is necessary for people to participate in the festival?A) A ticket, goggles, and a tomato costume.B) A ticket, goggles, and a sense of humor.C) A ticket, goggles, and martial arts skills.D) A ticket, goggles, and tourism experience.35. What does the passage suggest about the Tomato fight festival?A) It is a waste of food resources.B) It reflects the importance of tradition.C) It promotes creativity and enjoyment.D) It should be held more frequently.Passage TwoQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.Santa Fe: The Art Capital of Southwestern AmericaSanta Fe, located in the colorful state of New Mexico, is famous for its thriving art scene and rich cultural heritage.

大学英语四级历年真题与范文(1991-2007)1999.1 真题Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic. Don't Be Afraid to Say“No”. Y ou should write at least 100 words and you should base your composition on the outline (given in Chinese) below:1.别人请求帮助时,在什么情况下我们会说“不”2.为什么有些人在该说“不”的时候不说“不”3.该说“不”时,不说“不”的坏处[范文]Don't Be Afraid to Say “No”Sometimes we have to say “No” to others when they ask us for help. Why? One situation may be that we are not capable of doing the things they ask us to do. The other situation may be that we are unwilling to do what they ask us to do, because their requests may be unreasonable or even illegal. On both occasions we should say directly to them: “No”.But the case is not always the same in our daily life. Some people are afraid to say “No” when they should say so. On the one hand, they are afraid of losing their faces. On the other hand they don't want to hurt others, such as their family members, relatives, friends or colleagues.T o say “Y es” when you should say “No” will ev entually do you some harm. If you say “Y es” but fail to help them in the end because of lack of the ability, they may think you are not worthy of trust. If you help them do something bad or illegal, you will be punished for what you have done. So, don't be afraid to say “N o” if necessary.1999.6 真题Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic: Reading selectively or extensively?

What is your choice? Perhaps each of us has our choice. Some people think we should read selectively, for there are so many books for us to read. Thousands of new books are published every day. How can we cover all these books in our limited time? Besides, not all the books are worth reading.Some people, on the contrary, choose to read extensively. They think that reading extensively can broaden their horizons. Through reading extensively they can learn something about their ancestors; through reading extensively they can get insight of great men. Reading extensively can also enable us to adapt to the fast developing society. Because we are living in a knowledge exploding society, if we don't read extensively, we can't get enough information about the modern world, and we can't keep pace with the society.In my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. By reading extensively, we can enrich our knowledge of aspects. By reading selectively, we can focus on and learn well the academic knowledge we'll need in our future work.2000.1 真题Direction: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic How I Finance My College Education?

It has been a problem for the students and their families how to finance their college education. In fact, the problem can be dealt with in many ways. The most common way is to get all the money from the parents. If their parents can't produce the tuition and the fees, students can apply a loan from the bank. There is still another way. Students can finance their education by doing some part time jobs in their spare time.As for me, my parents can pay the greater part of the tuition and fees for me. So, I won't have a heavy financial burden, and I can put all my heart into study. I would like to pay the rest by doing a part time job. Although my parents are able to pay all the tuition and fees for me, I just want to know more about the society by my own working experience. Therefore, I choose this way to finance my college education.2001.1 真题Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write a composition on the topic How to Succeed in a Job Interview?

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.The aim of the teacher is to get his pupils as quickly as possible over the period in which each printed symbol is looked at for its shape, and arrive at the stage when the pupil looks at words and phrases, for their meaning, almost without noticing the shapes of the separate letters.When a good reader is at work he does not look at letters, nor even at words, one by one, however, he quickly takes in the meaning of two, three, or four words at a time, in a single moment. Watch carefully the eyes of a person who is reading, and it will be seen that they do not travel smoothly along the lines of print, but they move by jumps separated by very short stops. The eyes of a very good reader move quickly, taking long jumps and making very short halts (停顿); the eyes of a poor reader move more slowly, taking only short jumps and stopping longer at each halt. Sometimes, when he meets a difficulty, he even goes backwards to see again what has already been looked at once.The teacher’s task is therefore clear: it is to train his pupils to take in several words at a glance (one eye-jump’) and to remove the necessity for going backwards to read something a second time.This shows at once that letter-by-letter, or syllable-by-syllable, or word-by-word reading, with the finger pointing to the word, carefully fixing each one in turn, is wrong. It is wrong because such a method ties the pupil’s eyes down to a very short jump, and the aim is to train for the long jump. Moreover, a very short jump is too short to provide any meaning or sense; and it will be found that having struggled with three or four words separately, the pupil has to look at them again, all together and in one group, in order to get the meaning of the whole phrase.21. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the first paragraph?A) Pupils should be trained to reach quickly the stage of reading without having toconcentrate on the separate symbols.B) Pupils should look at each printed symbol for its meaning as well as for its shape.C) Teachers should help their pupils avoid looking at the shape of the printedsymbols.D) Teachers should tell their pupils the different stages of their study.22. In a single moment, a good reader picks up ________.A) several wordsB) several phrasesC) several sentencesD) several lines23. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ________.A) students will be able to express their ideas more freelyB) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakesC) students will have more confidence in writingD) students will learn to be independent of teachers24. The writer seems to think that the teacher’s judgement on that sensitive piece ofwriting is ________.A) reasonableB) unfairC) foolishD) careless25. The major point discussed in the passage is ________.A) the importance of developing writing skillsB) the complexities of spellingC) the correct way of marking compositionsD) the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A breakthrough (突破) in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy programme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year 2000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present< sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy needs.At present the EEC spends about $2.6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC’s official joint research centres, and another $3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies.26. The phrase “be brought forward” (Line 2, Para. 1) most probably means ________.A) be expectedB) be completedC) be advancedD) be introduced27. Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on________.A) sufficient fundingB) further experimentsC) advanced technologyD) well-equipped laboratories28. According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists toprovide ________.A) more than 3 ~, 6 of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000B) only 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000C) less than 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000D) 3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 200029. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A) The EEC spends one billion pounds on imported energy each year.B) At the present level of research spending, it is difficult to make any significantprogress in the provision of energy from the sun.C) The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade ifinvestment were increased.D) The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted toalmost 6 million.30. The application of advanced technology to research in solar energy ________.A) would lead to a big increase in research fundingB) would make it unnecessary to import oilC) would make it possible to meet the future energy needs of the EECD) would provide a much greater proportion of the Community’s future energyneedsPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Just seven years ago, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart was being cheered as the model of human creativeness. The sight of Barney Clark-alive and conscious after trading his diseased heart for a metal-and-plastic pump-convinced the press, the public and many doctors that the future had arrived. It hadn’t. After monitoring production of the Jarvik-7, and reviewing its effects on the 150 or so patients (most of whom got the device as a temporary measure) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration concluded that the machine was doing more to endanger lives than to save them. Last week the agency cancelled its earlier approval, effectively banning (禁止) the device.The recall may hurt Symbion Inc., maker of the Jarvik-7, but it won’t end the request for an artificial heart. One problem with the banned model is that the tubes connecting it to an external power source created a passage for infection. Inventors are now working on new devices that would be fully placed, along with a tiny power pack, in the patient’s chest. The first sample products aren’t expected for another 10 or 20 years: But some people are already worrying that they’ll work-and that America’s overextended health-care programs will lose a precious $2.5 billion to $5 billion a year providing them for a relatively few dying patients. If such expenditures (开支) cut into funding for more basic care, the net effect could actually be a decline in the nation’s health.31. According to the passage the Jarvik-7 artificial heart proved to be ________.A) a technical failureB) a technical wonderC) a good life-saverD) an effective means to treat heart disease32. From the passage we know that Symbion Inc ________.A) has been banned by the government from producing artificial heartsB) will review the effects of artificial hearts before designing new modelsC) may continue to work on new models of reliable artificial heartsD) can make new models of artificial hearts available on the market in 10 to 20years33. The new models of artificial hearts are expected ________.A) to have a working life of 10 or 20 yearsB) to be set fully in the patient’s chestC) to be equipped with an external power sourceD) to create a new passage for infection34. The word “them” in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to ________.A) doctors who treat heart diseasesB) makers of artificial heartsC) America’s health-care programsD) new models of artificial hearts35. Some people feel that ________.A) artificial hearts are seldom effectiveB) the country should not spend so much money on artificial heartsC) the country is not spending enough money on artificial heartsD) America’s health-care programs are not doing enough for the nation’s healthPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.A raped means of long-distance transportation became a necessity for the United States as settlement (新拓居地) spread ever farther westward. The early trains were impractical curiosities, and for a long time the railroad companies met with troublesome mechanical problems. The most serious ones were the construction of rails able to bear the load, and the development of a safe, effective stopping system. Once these were solved, the railroad was established as the best means of land transportation. By 1860 there were thousands of miles of railroads crossing the eastern mountain ranges and reaching westward to the Mississippi. There were also regional southern and western lines.The high point in railroad building came with the construction of the first transcontinental system. In 1862 Congress authorized two western railroad companies to build lines from Nebraska westward and from California eastward to a meeting point, so as to complete a transcontinental crossing linking the Atlantic seaboard with the Pacific. The Government helped the railroads generously with money and land. Actual work on this project began four years later. The Central Pacific Company, starting from California, used Chinese labor, while the Union Pacific employed crews of Irish laborers. The two groups worked at remarkable speed, each trying to cover a greater distance than the other. In 1869 they met at a place called Promontory in what is now the state of Utah. Many visitors came there for the great occasion. There were joyous celebrations all over the country, with parades and the ringing of church bells to honor the great achievement.The railroad was very important in encouraging westward movement. It also helped build up industry and farming by moving raw materials and by distributing products rapidly to distant markets. In linking towns and people to one another it helped unify the United States.36. The major problems with America’s railroad system in the mid 19th century lay in________.A) poor quality rails and unreliable stopping systemsB) lack of financial support for developmentC) limited railroad linesD) lack of a transcontinental railroad37. The building of the first transcontinental system ________.A) brought about a rapid growth of industry and farming in the westB) attracted many visitors to the construction sitesC) attracted laborers from EuropeD) encouraged people to travel all over the county38. The best title for this passage would be ________.A) Settlements Spread WestwardB) The Coast-to-Coast Railroad: A Vital LinkC) American Railroad HistoryD) The Importance of Trains in the American Economy39. The construction of the transcontinental railroad took ________.A) 9 yearsB) 7 yearsC) 4 yearsD) 3 years40. What most likely made people think’ about a transcontinental railroad?A) The possibility of government support for such a task.B) The need to explore Utah.C) The need to connect the east coast with the west.D) The need to del, clop the railroad industry in the west.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Researchers in the Netherlands report that children who get more exercise, whether at school or on their own, 26 to have higher GPAs and better scores on standardized tests. In a 27 of 14 studies that looked at physical activity and academic 28 , investigators found that the more children moved, the better their grades were in school, 29 in the basic subjects of math, English and reading.The data will certainly fuel the ongoing debate over whether physical education classes should be cut as schools struggle to 30on smaller budgets. The arguments against physicaleducation have included concerns that gym time may be taking away from study time. With standardized test scores in the U.S.31 in recent years, some administrators believe students need to spend more time in the classroom instead of on the playground. But as these findings show, exercise and academics may not be 32 exclusive. Physical activity can improve blood 33 to the brain, fueling memory, attention and creativity, which are 34 to learning. And exercise releases hormones that can improve 35 and relieve stress, which can also help learning. So while it may seem as if kids are just exercising their bodies when they’re running around, they may actually be exercising their brains as well.注意:此部分试题请在答题卡2上作答。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice andmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single linethrough the centre.Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.The aim of the teacher is to get his pupils as quickly as possible over the period in which each printed symbol is looked at for its shape, and arrive at the stage when the pupil looks at words and phrases, for their meaning, almost without noticing the shapes of the separate letters.When a good reader is at work he does not look at letters, nor even at words, one by one, however, he quickly takes in the meaning of two, three, or four words at a time, in a single moment. Watch carefully the eyes of a person who is reading, and it will be seen that they do not travel smoothly along the lines of print, but they move by jumps separated by very short stops. The eyes of a very good reader move quickly, taking long jumps and making very short halts (停顿); the eyes of a poor reader move more slowly, taking only short jumps and stopping longer at each halt. Sometimes, when he meets a difficulty, he even goes backwards to see again what has already been looked at once.The teacher’s task is theref ore clear: it is to train his pupils to take in several words at a glance (one eye-jump’) and to remove the necessity for going backwards to read something a second time.This shows at once that letter-by-letter, or syllable-by-syllable, or word-by-word reading, with the finger pointing to the word, carefully fixing each one in turn, is wrong. It is wrong because such a method ties the pupil’s eyes down to a very short jump, and the aim is to train for the long jump. Moreover, a very short jump is too short to provide any meaning or sense; and it will be found that having struggled with three or four words separately, the pupil has to look at them again, all together and in one group, in order to get the meaning of the whole phrase.21. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the first paragraph?A) Pupils should be trained to reach quickly the stage of reading without having toconcentrate on the separate symbols.B) Pupils should look at each printed symbol for its meaning as well as for its shape.C) Teachers should help their pupils avoid looking at the shape of the printedsymbols.D) Teachers should tell their pupils the different stages of their study.22. In a single moment, a good reader picks up ________.A) several wordsB) several phrasesC) several sentencesD) several lines23. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that ________.A) students will be able to express their ideas more freelyB) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakesC) students will have more confidence in writingD) students will learn to be independent of teachers24. The writer seems to think that the teacher’s judgement on that sensitive piece ofwriting is ________.A) reasonableB) unfairC) foolishD) careless25. The major point discussed in the passage is ________.A) the importance of developing writing skillsB) the complexities of spellingC) the correct way of marking compositionsD) the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A breakthrough (突破) in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades, if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s research effort in this field, according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra, near Milan.The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy programme, Mr. Joachim Gretz, told journalists that at present levels of research spending it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year 2000. But he said that with a modest increase in the present< sums, devoted by the EEC to this work it was possible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.Mr. Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s needs, this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year. And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might be possible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy nee ds.At present the EEC spends about $2.6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra, one of the EEC’s official joint research centres, and another $3 millions a year in indirect research with universities and other independent bodies.26. The phrase “be brought forward” (Line 2, Para. 1) most probably means ________.A) be expectedB) be completedC) be advancedD) be introduced27. Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy depends on________.A) sufficient fundingB) further experimentsC) advanced technologyD) well-equipped laboratories28. According to Mr. Gretz, the present sum of money will enable the scientists toprovide ________.A) more than 3 ~, 6 of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000B) only 3% of the EEC’s ne eds before the year 2000C) less than 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000D) 3% of the EEC’s needs after the year 200029. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A) The EEC spends one billion pounds on imported energy each year.B) At the present level of research spending, it is difficult to make any significantprogress in the provision of energy from the sun.C) The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade ifinvestment were increased.D) The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted toalmost 6 million.30. The application of advanced technology to research in solar energy ________.A) would lead to a big increase in research fundingB) would make it unnecessary to import oilC) would make it possible to meet the future energy needs of the EECD) would provide a much greater proportion of the Community’s future energyneedsPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Just seven years ago, the Jarvik-7 artificial heart was being cheered as the model of human creativeness. The sight of Barney Clark-alive and conscious after trading his diseased heart for a metal-and-plastic pump-convinced the press, the public and many doctors that the future h ad arrived. It hadn’t. After monitoring production of the Jarvik-7, and reviewing its effects on the 150 or so patients (most of whom got the device as a temporary measure) the U.S. Food and Drug Administration concluded that the machine was doing more to endanger lives than to save them. Last week the agency cancelled its earlier approval, effectively banning (禁止) the device.The recall may hurt Symbion Inc., maker of the Jarvik-7, but it won’t end the request for an artificial heart. One problem with the banned model is that the tubes connecting it to an external power source created a passage for infection. Inventors are now working on new devices that would be fully placed, along with a tiny power pack, in the patient’s chest. The first sample products aren’t expected for another 10 or 20 years: But some people are already worrying that they’ll work-and that America’s overextended health-care programs will lose a precious $2.5 billion to $5 billion a year providing them for a relatively few dying patients. If such expenditures (开支) cut into funding for more basic care, the net effect could actually be a decline in the nation’s health.31. According to the passage the Jarvik-7 artificial heart proved to be ________.A) a technical failureB) a technical wonderC) a good life-saverD) an effective means to treat heart disease32. From the passage we know that Symbion Inc ________.A) has been banned by the government from producing artificial heartsB) will review the effects of artificial hearts before designing new modelsC) may continue to work on new models of reliable artificial heartsD) can make new models of artificial hearts available on the market in 10 to 20years33. The new models of artificial hearts are expected ________.A) to have a working life of 10 or 20 yearsB) to be set fully in the patient’s chestC) to be equipped with an external power sourceD) to create a new passage for infection34. The word “them” in Line 7, Para. 2 refers to ________.A) doctors who treat heart diseasesB) makers of artificial heartsC) America’s health-care programsD) new models of artificial hearts35. Some people feel that ________.A) artificial hearts are seldom effectiveB) the country should not spend so much money on artificial heartsC) the country is not spending enough money on artificial heartsD) America’s health-care programs are not doing enough for the nation’s healthPassage FourQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.A raped means of long-distance transportation became a necessity for the United States as settlement (新拓居地) spread ever farther westward. The early trains were impractical curiosities, and for a long time the railroad companies met with troublesome mechanical problems. The most serious ones were the construction of rails able to bear the load, and the development of a safe, effective stopping system. Once these were solved, the railroad was established as the best means of land transportation. By 1860 there were thousands of miles of railroads crossing the eastern mountain ranges and reaching westward to the Mississippi. There were also regional southern and western lines.The high point in railroad building came with the construction of the first transcontinental system. In 1862 Congress authorized two western railroad companies to build lines from Nebraska westward and from California eastward to a meeting point, so as to complete a transcontinental crossing linking the Atlantic seaboard with the Pacific. The Government helped the railroads generously with money and land. Actual work on this project began four years later. The Central Pacific Company, starting from California, used Chinese labor, while the Union Pacific employed crews of Irish laborers. The two groups worked at remarkable speed, each trying to cover a greater distance than the other. In 1869 they met at a place called Promontory in what is now the state of Utah. Many visitors came there for the great occasion. There were joyous celebrations all over the country, with parades and the ringing of church bells to honor the great achievement.The railroad was very important in encouraging westward movement. It also helped build up industry and farming by moving raw materials and by distributing products rapidly to distant markets. In linking towns and people to one another it helped unify the United States.36. The major problems with America’s railroad system in the mid 19th century lay in________.A) poor quality rails and unreliable stopping systemsB) lack of financial support for developmentC) limited railroad linesD) lack of a transcontinental railroad37. The building of the first transcontinental system ________.A) brought about a rapid growth of industry and farming in the westB) attracted many visitors to the construction sitesC) attracted laborers from EuropeD) encouraged people to travel all over the county38. The best title for this passage would be ________.A) Settlements Spread WestwardB) The Coast-to-Coast Railroad: A Vital LinkC) American Railroad HistoryD) The Importance of Trains in the American Economy39. The construction of the transcontinental railroad took ________.A) 9 yearsB) 7 yearsC) 4 yearsD) 3 years40. What most likely made people think’ about a transcontinental railroad?A) The possibility of government support for such a task.B) The need to explore Utah.C) The need to connect the east coast with the west.D) The need to del, clop the railroad industry in the west.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 minutes)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.
