大学英语三级A级-155(总分：39.00，做题时间：90分钟)一、Reading Comprehension(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、1(总题数：2，分数：9.00)All over the world mention of the British education suggests a picture of the "public school", and it suggests in particular the names of certain very famous institutions—Eton, Oxford and Cambridge; but people do not always realize what place these institutions occupy in the whole educational system. Oxford and Cambridge are universities, each having about 12,000 students out of a total of over 250,000 students at all British universities. Eton is a public school and the best known of the public schools, which, in spite of their names, are not really public at all, but independent and private secondary schools taking boys from the age of thirteen to eighteen years. The public schools in reality form a very small part of the school system of secondary education of Great Britain; only about one out of forty English boys goes to a public school, and one out of 1,500 to Eton.Apart from the so-called public schools there is complete system of state primary and secondary education, which resembles in its general form the state education in most other countries. All children must, by law, receive full-time education between the ages of five and sixteen. Any child may attend, without paying fees, a school provided by the public authorities, and the great majority attend such schools. They may continue, still without paying fees, until they are eighteen. The public schools, although unimportant numerically, have been England"s most peculiar and characteristic contribution to educational methods, and they have an immense influence on the whole of English educational practice and on the English social structure.（分数：5.00）(1).How much full-time schooling must a British child receive and when does it begin?（分数：1.00）A.Eleven years starting from the age of five. √B.Seventeen years starting from the age of five.C.Five years starting from the age of thirteen.D.Thirteen years starting from the age of five.解析：[解析] 题干意为“英国孩子要接受多少年的专职学习?从什么时候开始?”该题为细节题。

大学英语三级A级-190(总分100,考试时间90分钟)Reading ComprehensionDirections:This part is to test your reading ability. There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed.Text 1When you speak on the telephone, you cannot use your facial (面部的) expression, eye contact and gestures to **municate your message. Your voice must do the job.A good voice is pleasant to listen to because it communicates a positive message. Keep in mind the following qualities of a good voice:Speak in a voice neither too loud nor too soft. Speak louder when giving important information. Speak slowly enough so that the listener has a chance to understand your message without your having to repeat it. Keep in mind that as you speak the other person may be taking notes. Pronunciation is the correct way to say a word. To avoid mispronouncing (读错音) words, you may wish to check the pronunciation of unfamiliar words in the dictionary before you use them. The people with an accent unlike yours may not understand your pronunciation of some words. You also may not understand the pronunciation of some of their words. In these cases, careful pronunciation is very important for **munication. You may need to repeat or spell the words that are unusual or easy to be misunderstood.1. When speaking on the phone, the essential factor for **munication is your ______.A. voiceB. gestureC. eye contactD. facial expression2. To give important information, a person speaking on the phone should ______.A. keep a pleasant mannerB. use familiar wordsC. lower the voiceD. speak louder3. The speaker is advised to speak slowly in order to help the listener to ______.A. remember some wordsB. repeat the informationC. check the messageD. take some notes4. To avoid mispronouncing unfamiliar words, you are advised to ______.A. check them in a dictionaryB. pronounce them loudlyC. use other words insteadD. ask others for help5. Speakers sometimes need to spell some words to help listeners to understand ______.A. long sentencesB. unusual wordsC. difficult questionsD. important expressionsText 2Youth is not a matter of time but a matter of self-improvement, both physically and morally. Being a good youth, one should have those factors: the basic one is health. A healthy body is a kind of priceless treasure. One can do nothing without it. Secondly, we should pay essential attention to our moral character. We should be always willing to help those in trouble without **plaints. Moreover, we should care more about the people around us. Thirdly, cooperation **munication also play an important role in being a good youth. No one can live alone without any friends. And nobody can work out every problem without the help of partners. So the youth should and must learn how to live and work well with others, including those people you don"t like to cooperate or communicate with. The last but not the least, patriotism, meaning a love of one"s country, is the one we should never forget. People always misunderstand the word "patriots" by thinking it only refers to those fighters who fight for their country. As a matter of fact, a patriot will do the things his country asks him to do. So being a youth is one thing, being a good one really needs to take every effort to make yourself to be.1. The passage really wants to tell us that ______.A. what the meaning of "patriots" isB. the qualities a good youth should haveC. a youth should be doing goodD. one should help others2. The first thing a good youth should have is ______.A. the best lookingB. the best richesC. the good abilityD. a healthy body3. A good youth should help others ______.A. willinglyB. at his convenienceC. if he wants toD. **plains4.

In the author"s opinion, the patriots must ______.A. fight for the countryB. learn everythingC. do what their country need them to doD. protect their family and countryText 3Dear Mr. Williams:Your advertisement in this morning"s paper for manager of public relations appeals to me. I found the wording of your advertisement quite attractive with emphasis on leadership, initiative, and flexibility. And my experience and qualifications indicate that I am the person you are seeking. The enclosed resume indicates my experience in the area of public relations and **munications.

And I am most eager to put this concept into practice to prove it to you.Although I have been very happy with my present employer and colleagues, I am more willing to join **pany where I can assume even broader responsibility.I am free to travel and open to relocation. I would welcome the opportunity to meet you and to further discuss how I may benefit your organization.

大学英语三级A级-143(总分：39.50，做题时间：90分钟)一、Structure(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Section A(总题数：20，分数：19.50)1.The business is for sale ______ the death of the former owner.（分数：1.00）A.with respect toB.by reason of √C.for fear ofD.in regard to解析：[解析] 此题考查短语。

with respect to“关于”；by reason of“由于……”；for fear of/ that“由于害怕，生怕，以免”；in regard to“关于”。

2.She wanted to go swimming, ______.（分数：1.00）A.so her brother didB.so did her brother √C.too her brotherD.did her brother too解析：[解析] 本题考查倒装结构。

题干意为“她想去游泳”，结合选项可知，空格处要表达“她弟弟”和“她”一样“也想去游泳”，应用倒装结构“so+助动词/be动词/情态动词+主语”。

根据题干中的动词wanted可确定so后接助动词did，故B为答案。

在此结构中，要注意倒装部分的谓语要与前半句谓语时态一致。

另外，表示否定情况时应用“neither+助动词/be动词/情态动词+主语”的结构。

3.The service there was ______ poor that we went to another restaurant down the street.（分数：1.00）A.so √B.suchC.veryD.too解析：[考点] so...that[解析] 本句的意思是：那儿的服务非常糟糕，我们去了街上的另一家餐厅。

so...that表示“如此……以致”，so后跟形容词或副词。

大学英语三级A级-144(总分：42.50，做题时间：90分钟)一、Structure(总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Section A(总题数：20，分数：21.50)1.Rumor has it ______ the director is to resign next month.（分数：1.00）A.that √B.whichC.such thatD.for which解析：[解析] 句子意思是：据谣传，主任下个月会辞职。

“Rumor has it that...”固定结构，意思是“据谣传……”，相当于It is rumored that...。

所以其他选项都不对。

2.It would be better to mail a letter of application to the advertiser ______ to call him or her directly.（分数：1.00）A.as wellB.or elseC.rather than √D.so as解析：[解析] 本题考查的是连接词用法。

空格前翻译为：“给登广告的人写一封求职信的办法更好”，空格后翻译为：“直接打电话给他或她”。

空格处应选表示转折的选项。

答案中rather than表示“而不是”，所以C为正确答案。

as well也；同样的；还不如；or else否则；要不然；而so as to连在一起表目的，这三个显然不能成为答案。

3.I will not lend the book to you ______ you can return it in time.（分数：1.00）A.in caseB.so thatC.unless √D.if解析：[解析] 本题考查的是连词的用法。

unless的意思是“除非”，相当于if not，是条件句的否定形式，与if意思相反，符合句意，故选项C为正确答案。

A项“in case”的意思是“以防、万一”，B项“so that”引导目的状语和结果状语，而D项“if”引导表示肯定的条件句；均不符合句子的意思，故排除。

大学英语三级A级-49(总分100,考试时间90分钟)Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are 5 passages in this part. After each passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Do you know how to use a mobile phone without being rude to the people around you? Talking during a performance irritates (激怒) people. If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate (振动). When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance. Think twice before using mobile phones in elevators, museums, churches or other indoor public places—especially enclosed spaces. Would you want to listen to someone"s conversation in these places? Worse yet, how would you feel if a mobile phone rang suddenly during a funeral! It happens more often than you think. Avoid these embarrassing situations by making sure your mobile phone is switched off. When eating at a restaurant with friends, don"t place your mobile phone on the table. This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you.Mobile phones have sensitive microphones that allow you to speak at the volume you would on a regular phone. This enables you to speak quietly so that others won"t hear the details of your conversations. If you are calling from a noisy area, use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone. Many people believe that they can"t live without their mobile phone. Owning a mobile phone definitely makes life more convenient, but limit your conversations to urgent ones and save the personal calls until you are at home.1.

Doctors explained that there was no cure for ALD, and that he would probably die within three years. But Lorenzo"s parents set out to prove the doctors wrong. The parents devoted themselves to keeping their son alive and searching for a cure. But doctors and the families of other ALD patients often refused to take them seriously. They thought the efforts to find a cure were a waste of time, and **panies weren"t interested in supporting research into such a rare disease.However, the parents still refused to give up and spent every available hour in medical libraries and talking to anyone who would help. Through trial and error (反复实验), they finally created a cure from ingredients (调料) commonly found in the kitchen. The cure, named "Lorenzo"s Oil", saved the boy"s life. Despite the good results, scientists and doctors remained unconvinced. They said there was no real evidence that the oil worked and that the treatment was just a theory. As a result, some families with ALD children were reluctant to try it. Finally, the boy"s father organized an international study to test the oil. After ten years of trials, the answer is: the oil keeps ALD children healthy.6. Doctors said that Lorenzo might die within three years because ______.A. they had never treated the disease beforeB. Lorenzo was too young to be curedC. no cure had been found for ALDD. ALD was a rare disease7.

It wasn"t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a lifetime of security if I struck with it. However, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss"s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. "Matt, we have to have a talk," I began awkwardly. "I came to the Globe when I was 24. Now I"m 40. There"s a lot I want to do in life. I"m resigning." "To another paper?" he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn"t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new **pany. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change. "I"m glad for you," he said, quite out of my expectation. "I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was 75 percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can"t," he went on. "I wish you all the luck in the world," he concluded. "And if it doesn"t work out, remember, your star is always high here."Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more goodbyes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody—even though I"d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up. Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into a billion-dollar property. "I"m resigning, Bill," I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn"t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said, "Golly, I wish I were in your shoes."11. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous ______.A. newspaperB. magazineC. templeD. church12. If the writer stayed with the GlobeA. he would be able to realize his lifetime dreamsB. he would let his long-cherished dreams fade awayC. he would never have to worry about his future lifeD. he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions13.

This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you"re "hot". That"s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the **es during the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: "Get up, Peter! You"ll be late for work again!" The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can"t change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you"re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won"t change your cycle, but you"ll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.16.

At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a "greenhouse effect"—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world"s average temperature. If this view is correct and the world"s temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth"s temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would make agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible). Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies wilt offset each other and the world"s temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment caused by the "advanced civilization". Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?21. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution ______.A. cause widespread damage in the countrysideB. affected the entire eastern half of the United StatesC. had damaged effect on healthD. existed merely in urban and industries areas22. As to the greenhouse effect, the author______.A. shares the same view with the scientistB. is uncertain of its occurrenceC. rejects it as being ungroundedD. thinks that it will destroy the world soon23. The word "offset" in the second paragraph could be replaced by ______.A. slip intoB. make up forC. set upD. catch up with24. It can be concluded that ______.A. raising the world"s temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earthB. lowering the world"s temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disasterC. almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decadeD. the world"s temperature will remain constant in the years to come25. This passage is primarily about ______.A. the greenhouse effectB. the burning of fossil fuelsC. the potential effect of air pollutionD. the likelihood of a new ice age。

大学英语三级A级-89(总分：100.00，做题时间：90分钟)一、 (总题数：0，分数：0.00)二、Task 1 (总题数：1，分数：20.00)College is a place to explore many possibilities; you really can"t do it all—unless you manage your time wisely. Here are some tips I have found very helpful for managing my time and maximizing my study efforts:①Determine your goals. What do you want to get out of a college education? Academic (学术的) knowledge? Leadership experience within a club? Decide what is most important to you. Then devote proportionate (成比例的) amounts of time to those efforts.②Plan ahead. You may think you can keep everything in y our head, but as the activities on your schedule start piling up, making a schedule can really help organize even little tasks.③Study at strategic (关键的) times. Don"t wait until you"re falling asleep to study. Study first. Save those e-mails to check later, because tasks that don"t require much energy and attention can still be done when you"re tired.④Motivate (激励) yourself! You know that TV show you"ve been dying to see, or that game of chess you"ve been waiting all week to challenge your friend to. These and many other special activities can be used for motivation. Promise yourself that you"ll finish your biology assignment before you go off and "play". That way, you"ll force yourself to work efficiently. (Don"t rush through the assignment, though.)⑤T ake a nap. Sometimes even a 20-minute nap in the afternoon will give you the extra energy you need to get through the day.（分数：20.00）(1).We need to plan ahead in order to ______.（分数：4.00）A.keep a record of all the eventB.better organize our activities √C.store everything in our headD.pile up little tasks neatly解析：[解析] 理解判断题。
