human brain has two sides,and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number it analyses and reasons. The right side controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It is well-known that Albert Einstein as a great scientist also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Einstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis reason and language.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by using his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis.number and reason and then he used language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage, number,analysis and reasons are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use or imaginations to think of solutions to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the otherbut all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have. Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage, of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sideD.neither side67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that .A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is importantD.scientists are good at imagining what may happen68.It is implied in the passage that school education .A.suggests using both sides at the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the sight side of the brain69.What did Nietzsche soy about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is .A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.criticalPassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and magazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing one,the ability to read and comprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early age,and never get over them The main problem lies in language itself-words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs. Unfortunately,however,the untrained reader does not read groups of words. He reads one word at a time,often regressing to reread words or passages.Regression or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization-sounding each word either orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits.some reading clinics use a device called accelerator (加速器)which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate than the reader finds comfortable,in order to "stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast making word by word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas, you will not only read faster but your comprehension will improved.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some training.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read for .A.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly because .A.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have pour reading habitsD.they don't understand words when out together73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPT .A.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word by word reading74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habitsD.It lets people look back over what they have just read.75.What does "At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed."mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly,and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.D.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.Passage FourWhen the dog named Juddy spotted the first sheen in her life she did what cones naturally.The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and being a city animal,lost both her sheep and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of cliff （悬崖）and fell 100 feet bouncing off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden panicked and celled the coastguard of Cornwall who turned up in seconds.Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home fromhis holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the neat two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve Tregear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.A birdwatcher.armed with a telescope found the pet sitting desperately on a rock While he sounded the alarm,the student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.The dog had initially been knocked unconscious（失去知觉的）but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge."The dog was very thin and hungry"Steve Tregear said,"it was a very dog.She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water",he added.It was,.as Mr.Holden admitted,“a minor miracle（奇迹）”76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff when she was .A.rescuing her ownerB.caught in a hurricaneC.blocked by a rockD.running after a sheep77.Who spotted Judy after the accident?A.bird watcherB.A student from LeedsC.Six volunteersD.The

your favorite color?We are all sensitive to color.There are some colors we like a lot and some we don't like at all.Some colors comfort us,others excite us,some make us happy,and others make us sad.People are affected by color more than they realize because color is tied to all aspects of our lives.Experts in colorogenic,the study of the language of color,believe that the colors we wear say a lot about us.Do you know why you select a shirt or dress of a certain color when you look through your c lothes in the morning?Colorogenic experts say that we unconsciously choose to wear certain colors in order to communicate our desires,emotions,and needs.Colorogenic experts claim that our clothes send messages to others about our mood,personality,a nd desires.Pink expresses the peace and contentment of the wearer.People who often wear pink are s upposed to be warm and understanding.The message is that you would like to share your peace and ha ppiness with others.Red garments,on the other hand,indicate a high level of physical energy.People who wear red like to take life at a fast pace.Brown is the color of wealth,and it shows a need for indep endence and material security.Wearers of green have a love of nature and enjoy peaceful moments.Th ey often like to be left alone with their thoughts.Although colorogenic may be a recent area of study,a ssociating colors with emotions is not new.Colors have always been used to describe not only our feeli ngs but also our physical health and attudes."Red with rage describes anger;in the pink means to be in good health;feeling blue is a sad way to feel;and"green with envy indicates a jealous attude.In conclusion,the study of color can help us to understand ourselves and to improve our lives.It o ffers an alternative way to heal the body and spirit,and it can help us understand what others are trying to communicate.61.Why are people affected by color more than they realize?A.colors make people more sensitive.B.colors bring people different feelings.C.colors are everywhere in people's lives.D.colors give people excitement.答案：C62.According to the passage,_____.A.people wear different colors to show their feelings.B.people communicate better when wearing their favorite colors.C.people like to wear different colors in the morning.D.people choose different colors without knowing they do it purposely.答案：D63.The underlined word"contentment"in Para3means"___"in Chinese.A.满意B.目录C.内容D.容量答案：A64.From the passage,people____want to share peace and happiness.A.who wear green clothesB.who wear pink clothesC.who wear blue clothesD.who wear white clothes答案：B65.Why is the study of color useful in our life?A.Because it helps us to express our ideas more clearly.B.Because it helps us to control our emotions and desires.C.Because it helps us to feel happier and more excited.D.Because it helps us to understand ourselves and others.答案：DPassage TwoRoger Sperry and Robert Einstein of the California Institute of Technology won a Nobel Prize in1 972.They discovered that the human brain has two sides,and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number;it analyses and reasons.The right s ide controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It iswell-known that Albert Einstein,as a great scientist,also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Ei nstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis,reason and la nguage.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by usin g his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis,number and reason and then he us ed language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage,number,ana lysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use our imaginations to think of solution s to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the other but all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have.Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage,____of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sidesD.neither sides答案：B67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that___A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is important.D.scientists are good at imagining what may happen答案：C68.It is implied in the passage that school educationA.suggests using both sides of the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the right side of the brain答案：D69.What did Nietzsche say about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.答案：C70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is_____.A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.critical答案：APassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and ma gazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing in one,the ability to read and co mprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early a ge,and never get over them.The main problem lies in language itself--words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs.Unfortunately,however,the u ntrained reader does not read groups of words.He reads one word at a time,often regressing to rereadwords or passages.Regression,or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization--sounding each word ei ther orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits,some reading clinics use a device called accelerator(加速器),which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate t han the reader finds comfortable,in order to stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehensi on is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas,you will not only read faster,but your com prehension will improve.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some trainin g.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read forA.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment答案：D72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly becauseА.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have poor reading habitsD.they don't understand words when put together答案：A73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPTA.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word-by-word reading答案：B74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habits.D.It lets people look back over what they have just read.答案：C75.What does“At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed”(Para.2,Sentence4)mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.D.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.答案：DPassage FourWhen the dog named Judy saw the first sheep in her life,she did what came naturally.The four-ye ar-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and,being a city animal,lost both her shee p and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of the cliff(ằ)and fell100feet,jumping off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden was worried and called the coastguard of Cornwall,who appeared in sec onds.Six volunteers went down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her aliv e after a90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home from his holi day upset,believing his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve T regear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holden if he would like his dog back.A birdwatcher,using a telescope,found the pet sitting on a rock.While he sounded the alarm,a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to pick up Judy.The dog had been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge.The dog was very thin and hungry,"Steve Tre gear said,It was a very lucky dog.She survived because of the fresh water around,"he added.It was,as Mr.Holden admitted,"a miracle(奇迹)".76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff when she was____.A.rescuing her ownerB.caught in a hurricaneC.blocked by a rockD.running after a sheep答案：D77.Who spotted Judy after the accident?A.A birdwatcherB.A student from LeedsC.Six volunteersD.The coastguard of Cornwall答案：A78.What can be inferred from the passage?A.People like to travel with their pets.B.Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.C.Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.D.Holden cared little where Judy was buried.答案：C79.According to the passage,which of the following statements is Not True?A.Mr.Holden called the coastguard after bis dog fell down the cliff.B.Judy was strong and be healthy when she was found.C.People thought Judy died after a90-minute search.D.Judy survived because she had fresh water and food答案：B80.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Miracle of the Coastguard.B.Surviving a Hurricane.C.Dangers in the WildD.A narrow escape.答案：DII.Translation(20points)How should we react to disasters?Firstly,I think it is reasonable to face them.No one expects disast ers,but if they come,they are there,and we must accept them as they are.In this way,it might be easie r for us to recover from the shock they bring to us.Secondly,we should concentrate on what we can do to relieve the bad effect of the disaster.We can't undo what is done,but we can make things a little better with our effort.Finally,in the face of disaster,we should help each ot her and try to make up for the losses caused by them.答案：我们该如何应对灾难?首先，我认为面对他们是合理的。

2023年陕西省专升本英语考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇12023 Shaanxi English Upgrade Test: A Kid's TakeHi guys! My name is Lili and I'm a 4th grader here in Xi'an. My big sister Meimei just took this crazy important English test called the Shaanxi Province Exam for Upgrading from Junior College to Bachelor's Degree Programs. She studied sooooo hard for months! I helped her practice some of the speaking parts. It was nuts!Meimei said the reading section was first. They had to read some long passages about things like environmental science, modern technology, and Chinese economics. Then they had to answer multiple choice questions testing if they understood the main ideas, details, vocabulary from context, and the author's purpose and tone. Meimei struggled a bit with the economics passage cuzbiz English has lots of hard words.Next was the listening part. They played recordings of lectures, conversations, and radio shows. The questions were also multiple choice, asking whatthe main ideas were, whothespeakers were, their opinions on things, and other details. Meimei said one conversation was really fast between two professors arguing aboutclimate change data. She missed a couple questions on that one.Then came the writing section - two tasks. First was an email responding to a situation, like applying for a job or complainingabout a product. Meimei had to write a proper email with greeting, bodyldear Mrs.Smith, I am writing to express my sincere interest in the positionof...>, and a closing. The second task was a longessayarguingfor or against some controversial statement. Meimei wrote about whether aiunsurism should be banned. She tried to have good examples, reasoning, vocabulary, and organization for thisone.Meimei's favorite was the speaking section at the end. She had to have a "conversation" with a computer by listening to questions or prompts, then speaking her responses into a mic. Things like introducing herself, explaining a concept, stating anddefendingan opinion, and proposingasolution to some problem. The computer didn't actually understand or respond to her - it just recorded her speaking for the graders to listen to later. Meimei saidthiswas where practicing with me reallypaidoff!When it was all over, Meimei felt pretty good about mostof it, but knew she probably made some silly mistakes here and there. Now we're all just waiting for her score to see if she qualifies toenter the bachelor's degreeprogramor has to take the test again next year. Keeping our fingerslittlefingers> crossed!Okay, wanna see some of the actual test questions my sis encountered? Here are just a few examples:Reading:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a benefit of increased urban farming?A) Reduced pollution from transporting foods long distancesB) More employment opportunities for city residentsC) Lowered rates of dietary health issues like obesityD) Elimination of need for rural agricultural areasListening:What does the professor imply is the primary cause of the gender wage gap?A) Discrimination in hiring practicesB) Women taking timeofffrom careers to raise childrenC) Differences in the college majors men and womenchooseD) Variations in the average number of hours men and women workWriting (Email Prompt):You recently hired an English tutor to help improve your speaking and writing abilities. However, after a few sessions you have been dissatisfied with the quality of instruction. Write an email to the tutoring company expressing your complaints and requesting either a differenttutor or a refund.Speaking (Opinion Prompt):Some people believe that mobilephone use should be completely prohibited while operating a vehicle, as it is a significant safety risk and modern hands-free options are still too distracting. Others argue that hands-free calling and voicecontrol software make phone use safe if done responsibly. What is your opinion on this issue? Explain your position using logical reasoning and examples.Answers:Reading: D) Elimination of need for rural agricultural areasListening: C) Differences in the college majors men and women chooseWriting: Reader's choice - well-organized email with appropriate format, content, and polite toneSpeaking: Reader's choice - coherent response with clear opinion, developed reasoning, relevant examples, good structureWhew! As you can see, it was a verrrrry thorough and challenging test for my poor sister. Kudos to anyone who can pass this beast! Math, coding, and Chinese sections too? No thanks, I'll stick to 4th grade homework for now! Let me know if you all have any other questions!篇2My Big English Test Adventure!Hi there! My name is Li Ming and I'm in 5th grade. I just took a really big English test called the 2023 Shaanxi Province English Proficiency Test for academic credential holders. It was super hard but also kinda fun! Let me tell you all about my big adventure with this test.First off, I had to study a whole bunch to get ready. My English teacher Miss Zhang made us practice listening, reading,writing, speaking - you name it! She said this test was going to be really important for kids like me who want to go to a good university later on. I didn't really get why at first, but my mom and dad kept telling me how critical English is these days. "Work hard on your English, Ming Ming," they'd say. "It will open up so many opportunities for you!"So I buckled down and hit the books...or I guess I should say I hit the English practice tests! We did listening exercises where we had to pick out key details from conversations. The reading passages were pretty dense for a 10-year-old, let me tell you. Writing was maybe the hardest part - I had to write a whole essay just like this one for the test! Can you believe it? Speaking was fun though. We got to have mock conversations and describe pictures out loud. Piece of cake for a chatty kid like me!Test day finally came and I was sooo nervous. We all had to get to the testing center super early in the morning. It was in this huge auditorium at the university near my house. My palms were sweating as the proctor passed out the test booklets. "Don't be scared, Ming Ming," Miss Zhang whispered before we started. "Just do your best!"The listening section kicked things off. I had to listen really carefully to some conversations between people and answermultiple choice questions about what they said. Like I mentioned, listening practice helped a ton to get me ready for that part.Next up was the reading section which totally drained my brain. I had to power through several long passages on all kinds of topics - science, history, literature, you name it. The questions got progressively harder too, asking for main ideas, making inferences, defining tricky vocabulary words. I just tried my best and filled in the bubbles.Writing time rolled around after that. We had two prompts to choose from - one was telling a story based on a picture and the other was giving our opinion on something. I went with the opinion essay and wrote my little 5th grade heart out about how kids my age should get less homework. A girl can dream, right?Last but not least was the speaking section. One by one, we had to go in another room and have a recorded conversation with a test grader. They asked me to describe a scene from a picture, which was explaining some steps in a process (making paper airplanes if I remember right). Definitely one of the easier parts for a motor mouth like yours truly.Whew, I was pooped after that whole shebang! The test took practically all day. Miss Zhang said she was proud of us no matter what though. I really hoped I did well, just so all the hardwork paid off, you know? My parents took me out for pizza that night to celebrate being done.A few weeks went by before the results finally came out. I'll never forget the day Miss Zhang passed back the test reports in class. I was shaking as I opened the envelope with my scores...AND I PASSED! I got high enough marks to be eligible for academic credential programs. A huge weight lifted off my shoulders.My parents were over the moon, too. All those late nights and practice tests were worth it. "We always knew you could do it, Ming Ming!" my dad exclaimed as he swept me up in a bear hug. Miss Zhang beamed and said she couldn't wait to help me prepare for the academic credential exams down the road.So that's the whole story of my big English test experience. It was hard work, but also kinda fun in a way. An adventure for sure!I know I've still got a long road of English learning ahead, but this test makes me feel ready to take it on. The sky's the limit, right? Well, I'm off to keep studying...gotta stay on top of my English game! Thanks for reading, friends!篇3The Biggest Test Ever!Hi there! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. I'm in the 5th grade at Sunshine Elementary School in Xi'an, Shaanxi Province. Today I want to tell you all about the super important English test that happened in my province this year - the 2023 Shaanxi Academic Examination for upgrading from junior college to undergraduate! It was a really big deal.Even though I'm just a kid and still in elementary school, I heard a lot about this test from my parents, teachers, and even on TV. They said it was one of the biggest and most challenging English tests in all of China for students trying to go from a junior college degree to a full bachelor's degree at a university. Thousands and thousands of students took it across Shaanxi hoping to get a high enough score to upgrade their education. Can you imagine how nervous they must have been?From what I could understand, the test had a few different sections including listening, reading, writing, translation, and using language points correctly. My mom said the listening section was super hard because they had to understand recordings with different accents and background noises. The reading section used really long academic passages too. I can't even imagine trying to understand all those big words and ideas!If I had to take a test like that, my little brain would probably explode.For the writing part, the students had to write a whole essay in English on a serious topic given to them during the test. My dad told me one of the essay prompts was about sustainable urban development and how to make cities more environmentally friendly. He said you really had to know a ton of vocabulary words related to the environment, urban planning, and policy to write a good essay. Those words are so advanced that they make my tongue twist into a knot just trying to say them! How are regular people supposed to know all that??Then there was the translation section where the test takers had to translate complex paragraphs perfectly between English and Chinese. My parents said this section is a huge challenge because you have to really understand the grammar, context, and connotations of both languages flawlessly. One small misunderstanding or mistake and the whole meaning could get messed up. No pressure though, right?The language points section covered all the tiny details and irregular cases in English grammar, like subjunctive moods or conditional perfect tenses. I've never even heard of things like that before! My English teacher Ms. Roberts says grammar isimportant, but some of the rules on this test sounded harder than ancient Chinese philosophy. I'm just a kid trying to remember basic sentence structures and when to use "a" or "the"!Phew, I'm getting tired just talking about all the difficult parts of this test. How in the world did those students prepare for something so incredibly challenging? My parents said many of them took monthly practice tests for over a year. They read practice materials every day, attended lectures, hired personal tutors, and pretty much dedicated their whole life to this one exam. Can you believe that? Even I don't study that much for my spelling quizzes!The test was held on April 15th across different rooms and buildings in Xi'an. Apparently the locations were so secure with monitoring systems that nobody could cheat in any way. I've been to some of the test buildings before for other events and they looked like hardcore military bases, not schools! The exam lasted over 3 hours too. I can hardly sit still for my 1-hour math tests without getting antsy.A few weeks later, the incredible scores and answer keys were finally released online and on TV. The reading passages covered topics like international business law (huh??), surgicalrobotics (are robots going to operate on me some day?), and archaeological discoveries of ancient Mayan cities (cavaliers and mayonnaise cities??). I definitely wouldn't have understood any of those readings!The sample essay answers looked like they were written by world-famous university professors or something. The words and sentences were so perfect and intelligent. My attempts at writing usually involve a lot of erasing, crossed-out words, and doodles in the margins. I have a hard time even filling up one page, never mind writing a multi-page masterpiece about urban environmental policies!From what I saw, pretty much everything about this exam was way too hard for a little kid like me. The listening, reading, writing, translation, grammar…I'm just not cut out for testing at that level. At least not yet! I've got a long way to go before I can even dream of passing an exam like that. The junior college students who took it must be super brave and smart. I was really impressed learning all about it.In the end, only the top scoring students were allowed to upgrade their junior college diplomas to bachelor's degrees from universities. It's crazy how one single test on one single day could completely change the course of someone's education andfuture career! If I ever have to take a terrifying high-stakes test like that when I'm older, I'll definitely be spending a lot more time studying than playing video games. This 2023 Shaanxi exam was no joke!Well, that's all I've got to say about the biggest English test of the year here in Shaanxi Province. Even though it went way over my head as a fifth grader, I tried my best to understand and explain it to you all. I have a brand new respect for any student who could ace that incredibly difficult exam. If you ever find yourself getting nervous about a spelling quiz or math test, just remember how much harder the 2023 Shaanxi Academic Exam was! We're pretty lucky we don't have anything that intense to deal with as elementary schoolers. I'm going to go appreciate how easy my life is by playing outside and eating ice cream. Thanks for listening!篇4The 2023 Shaanxi English Upgrading Test - A Kid's ViewHi friends! My name is Little Wang and I'm going to tell you all about the big English test I had to take last month. It was called the 2023 Shaanxi Province English Test for Upgradingfrom Junior College to Undergraduate. That's a really long name! I'll just call it the Upgrading Test.The Upgrading Test was really hard. There were listening, reading, writing, and translation sections. I had to sit at a desk for four whole hours! My little legs were getting tired from all that sitting.The listening part was first. I put on my headphones and the nice lady's voice came on telling me to listen carefully. There were conversations between two people and I had to choose the right answer about what they said. Some of the conversations were about going shopping or making plans. Other conversations were news reports about things happening in Shaanxi Province. I tried really hard to listen but it was tough!After listening, we did the reading section. There were longer passages to read about science, history, culture, and lots of other topics. I liked the passage about the Terra Cotta Warriors best because I learned about that on a field trip last year. But some of the other reading passages used words I didn't know and had difficult sentences to understand.Once we finished the terribly long reading section, it was time for writing. We had to write a short essay of 100-120 words on a randomly assigned topic. The topic I got was "The Benefitsof Learning English." I wrote about how learning English can help me make friends around the world and travel to different countries one day. I bet my writing looks like chicken scratch though!The very last section was translation. We had to translate sentences from English into Chinese and from Chinese back into English. Some of the vocabulary was really advanced for a kid like me. I tried my best but I'm sure I made quite a few mistakes. Translating is just so hard!Finally, after what felt like an entire day, the Upgrading Test was over. My hand was sore from all that writing and reading. My brain was fried from trying to focus for so long. I really hoped I did okay.A few weeks later, our teacher posted the Upgrading Test answers for our class. I hurried to check my work. Here are some of the questions and answers from the different sections:Listening SectionQuestion: What did the man say about the restaurant?A) The food was delicious.B) The service was slow.C) It was too expensive.D) The location was inconvenient.Answer: BReading SectionAccording to the passage, which of the following regions in China is known for producing high quality silk?A) GuangdongB) ShaanxiC) ZhejiangD) YunnanAnswer: CWriting Section[Example Essay Question] The Benefits of Learning EnglishLearning English provides many important benefits. First, it allows communication with people from different countries and cultures. Second, studying English can help create job opportunities both locally and globally. English skills make an individual more competitive in the career marketplace. Finally, learning English expands one's understanding of the world byproviding access to books, movies, websites and other resources produced in the English language. Overall, learning English is extremely advantageous in our interconnected world.Translation SectionTranslate the following sentence into Chinese:The ancient capital city of Xi'an is home to the famous Terracotta Warriors.西安这座古都是著名的兵马俑的所在地。
