Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letteron theAnswer Sheet.Passage OneMusic is part of the structure of our society: it sits at the heart of human experienceand enriches ( 丰富)so many lives. Why, then, is it not central to our education system? This is a question Irecently put forward to an all-party group on music education.1 am 20 years old and began playing the piano at the Barracudas BandinBarrow-in-Furness, aged seven. The. funding for the centre has now been cut.I took partin the primary tuition project, aged 11. The funding for that has also been cutnow, Il is a common problem across the country.Musicis not an add-on, a "soft" subject or a luxury—it is absolutely essential to our existence. Every child deserves the opportunity to experience its benefits. Until music is held inthe same regard as the "core" subjects of our curriculum, our society will beworse off. We need joy, empathy (共情)and hope on this planet more than ever, and taking away children * s opportunity to develop musical skills is to set ourselves up for a- 5 -- 5 -fall. Despite the many brilliant programs and projects to encourage young musicians (“EveryChild a Musician u Awards for Young Musicians, M to name but a few)), we are reaching a crisis point. We are in danger of destroying creativity, innovation (创新)and expression. Learning an instrument canhelpdevelop so many fundamental life skills. It promotes discipline, empathy, determination and cooperation as well as providing a senseof community and worth.Music has changed my life. It is a huge part of who I am. I have learned so muchabout the world throughmusic and the inspiring figures I havemet through it, 1 feel Ihave a duly to helpensure that others canbenefit from its magic. Let us make it availableto every single child.36. Why did the author raise the question on music education?A. The funding for music education hasbeen cut.B. The band the author joined in has broken up.C ・The projectthe author was in no longer exists,D. The tuition fee for music training has risen.37. What does the author think of the role of music?A. It is important for dealingwith social crises.B. It may offer children future job opportunities.C. It is fundamental to the growth of a child.D. It can help children ]eam core subjects.38. What is the theme of the passage?A. Music education should be available to every child.B. Music training programs should be provided free.C. Music shouldbe placed at the top of the curriculum.D. Music shouldbe made popular across the country.39. What is the author 1 s attitude towards music?A. Positive.B. Critical.C. Doubtful.D. Indifferent.Passage TwoIn 2011,a dog owner named Robert uploaded a video titled "Guilty! to YouTube. Hehad come home finding histwo dogs near an empty bag of cat treats. The first dog- 6 -- 6 -behaved calmly. But thesecond dog, Denver, sat shaking in a comer, her eyes lookingdown, which made Robert believeit was she who had done it. Seeing heru apparentadmission of guih," he yelled at her, “You did this!”Denver beat her tail nervously. "You know the routine. In the kennel 《狗窝))!!" Following the command, the dog shut herself in.The video quickly gathered a flood of comments. Since then, “dog shaming n hasbecome popular on the internet,as owners around the world posted beside notes shots oftheir trembling pets in which thedogs seemed to admit bad behavior. For instance, “I atean extra large pizza," admits a chocolate Lab.Human enthusiasm for guilty dogs seemed growing.But according to a researcher at Barnard College, what we consider to be a dog'sguilty look isno sign of guilt at all. In a 2009 study, the researcher had ownersforbid theirdogs from eating an attractive treat, and then asked the owners to leave the room. Whileeach owner was gone, the researcher eitherremoved the treat or fed it tothe dog. Whenthe owners returned, they were told 一一regardless of the truth—that their dogs either had or had not eaten it. If owners thought their dogs had done something wrong, blames followed, and guilty looks quickly emerged. Yet dogs who liadn ' tealen the treat weremore likely to appearguilty than dogs who had—so long astheir owners scolded them.Far from signaling regret, one groupof researchers wrote in a 2012 paper, the guilty lookof dogsis very likely a means to show obedience (顺从)to their owners.40. What did Robert want to show with his video on YouTube?A. Dogs' conflict withother pets.B. Dogs' naughty behaviors.C. Dogs' trust in their owners. D, Dogs' apparent guilty looks.41. How did people react to Robert s video?A, They slarted toshare dog-shamingphotos. B. They began to blame theirown dugs,C. They began to read fitories aboutdogs.D. They started to show sympathy for his dog 、42. What does "a chocolate Lab"in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.Ascientist. B, Adog.C.Aresearcher, D, Acat.43. Why dodogs wear a guilty look according to the researchers?A. To attract their owners 1 attention.B. To deceivetheir owners.C. To beg their owners for treats.D. To show obedience to their owners.- 7 -- 7 -Passage ThreeIn the race to the moon, who came in first?You might say the answer isNeil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, thecrew ofApollo 11. Or you could represent for the crew of Apollo 10,which reached themoon in May 1969 and then headed back lo Earth withoutlanding.But there is a much stranger answer to this question, depending on how much youcare about humansand what your definition (定义)of reaching themoon might be,Before any people arrived at the moon, other animals had got there first. And unlike thedogs and monkeys that were made famous in early space shots ant )Earth orbits, the first creatures toreacdi themuon were a pair of tortoises, Discovery' & Amy Shira Teitelreminded DS .The Soviet spacecraft (航天器)sent the animals around the moon 一一although not into its orbit 一一during a mission in the middle of September. 1968.The unmanned (无人驾驶的)craft then returned to Earth and dashed into the Indian Ocean, after which the Russians recoveredthe craft.A month later, Soviet scientist revealed that the spacecraft had been a tiny ship,carrying the tortoiseswine flies, meal worms, plants, seeds, bacteria, and other livingmatter.The tortoises, as history records, lost about 10 percent oftheir body weight, but hada healthy appetite when they returned io Earth. In the following checkups comparing the animals to "stay-at-home turtles used as a test control, M most things seemed normal, aside from some vaguely explained minor problems with the liver.What this all meansisthat, as Teitel explained, "The first livingbeings to see anEarthrise from the Moon were Russian tortoises. However, as far as 1 can tell, theanimals were not named. “44. According to the passage. Whi ch othefollowing reached the moon first?Apair of tortoises. B,American astronauts- 8 -- 8 -C, Russian astronauls, D. Dogs and rnonkess.45, What happened tothe Soviet spacecraft?A. It was wrecked during the mission.B.

Thev showedabnornia] behaviors.B. They had serious liver pmbleiris,B They losl thrir appelile lor food, [). They had olnionsly losT weight.47. Whal do Feilel * s words in ihr Iasi paragrapli imply?A.Thetortoises were fond ofseeing F'arthrise.B.Thetortoises were not given due credit for their experience.C .The ltortoises werenot named after the Soviet spacecraft.D .Tlie tortoises were famous all over ih? world.PassageFourVegans try lo live, as much as possible, ina way that avoids exploiling and beingcruel to aiiiinals. This means following a plant-based diet. Vegans do not eal animals o r animal-based produvls like meat. fish t seafood, eggs. honey and dairy prorlut^ts MIC I Ias cheese. For many vegans T living acominilted vegan lifestyle means not wearing clolhps made from animnal skins and avoiding any priduds which have been tested on animals. Vegans argue that suffering is c aused in lhe production of these foods, For example ,thev say that on some dairy farms, male calves ( 小牛牛) are killed because they are too expensive to keep, and cows ws are killed when they get older and produce less milk. Asfor honey , veganssay that bees make honey for bee, not lor humans, andi thal bees'- 9 -- 9 -healthy can suffer when humans lake the honeyfrom them.Vegans believe that lheproduels they use and consumeshould be free from jusl cruelty but anyexploitation of animals.Tlie mainreason for going vegan is probably I hat they beliese animals and allother sentient ( 有感知能力的) beings should have the right to life and freedorn. However, there are othe r reasons. Vegans argue that the prodouctinon of meal and other animal prodoucs is very bad for thr enviroment. The ypoint out thal ahuge quanlily ofwater is needed to grow grain to feed animalsin the meat indusliy. The enormousamount of grain which the meat industry needs leads to Io rests being cut down andhabtats ( 栖息地) being lost. In contrast,much lower quatniiies ol grain arid water are needed to sustain a vegan diet. In addition , many vegans say thal all the nutritiouselements our bodies need are contained in a c arefully planned vegan diet and tha this typeof diet helps prevent some diseases.48. Wh a I is a vegan in this passage?A.Aperson who likes to growvegetables.B. Aperson whois fond ofeatingmeat.C.Aperson who keeps aplant-based diet.D.Apersonwho stay saway fromanimals.49. Which of the following could be found in a vegan, s diet?A. Eggs.B.Honey.k.D.Potaloes.50. What Belief do vegans hold?A. Animals ran help improve the environment.B. Aniinals have the right to live andfreedom.C Animal products leads to the risecf grain output.D.Animal proilucls are far more nutritious51. What does the author want to imply in this passage?A. Going vegan consumes more water and grain.B. Going vegan enables people to live a healthier life.C. Going vegan helps to develop meat industry,D. Goingvegan has been a lifestyle for the majorities.- 10 -- 10 -Passage FiveThere are many interestingnews items in BP's (英国石油公司)annual EnergyOutlook just published, But perhaps the most astonishing suggestion in the report is theidea that cutting back on plastic use could make matters worse. This might be what youwould expect BP to say. After all, as oneof the world * s biggest oil companies, it makes alot of money from selling products in plastic. But let's look at the thinking behind BP's argument.If the current opposing idea about the use of plastic continues, there could be a worldwideban on single-use plastics by 2040. But the document argues that switchingplastic for other materials will have a bigger cost in terms of energy and carbon emissions(排放). That soundslike the law of unintended (非故意的)consequences in action. When plastic bags are measured against paper or cotton substitutes, a BBC analysisfound there wasn * t a great deal of difference in their environmental impact. Paper bags require fewer reuses to make them more environmentally friendly than single-use plastic bags, which means customers have to replace paper bags more frequently«Environmentalists, though, are notentirely convinced. They think that BP isstressing the problemof banning plastic for its own interest, “While it' s true that ittakes less energy to produce and transport plasticthan glass, a glass bottle can be reuseddozensof times and is recyclable. Phis, materials like glass when they escape collection don' t go on polluting our oceans and rivers for hundreds of years," said Louise Edge, from Greenpeace UK.Steps to encourage recycling are. being taken. The UK, for example t will introduce a new tax on the manufactureand import of plastic packagingin 2022. There are also lots of developments taking place with alternative materials. These may be the final defense against the unintended consequences of plastic bans.52. What is astonishing about BP's annual report?A. BP has earned a lot of money by selling plastic products.B. Cutting back on plastic use may bring more problems.C. BP has become one of the world's biggest oil companies.D. Cutting back on plastic use may affect product quality,53. Which of thefollowing could be banned worldwide by 2040?A. Second-hand cotton begs.B.Reusable paper bags.- 11 -- 11 -C. Single-use plastic bags.D. Recyclable glass bottles*54. According to environmentalists,what causes BP to oppose banning plastics?A. Its consideration of its own interest*B.Its worry about the loss of consumers,C. Its desire to influence world economy.D. Its concern about the environment.55 .What measure is being taken by the UK to cut back on the use of plastics?A. Forbidding the import of plastic bagss, E. Banning the manufacture of plastic bags. C. Taxing on the use ofplastic bags. D, Developing alternative materials toplastic.V ■Daily Conversation (15 points)Directions: Pickoutappropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on theAnswerSheetA, How about your presentation?

The “c” in “communicate” is not hard, as it does not precede a double vowel.4、Which of the following words has the correct pronunciation?A. “Environment” - /ɪnˌvaɪrənˈmeɪnt/B. “Education” - /ˌɛdʒuˈkeɪʃən/C. “Imagine” - /ɪˈmædʒɪneɪt/D. “Compass” - /kəˈmæpəs/Answer: BExplanation: The correct pronunciation of “education” is /ˌɛdʒuˈkeɪʃən/.

The other options have mispronounced vowels or consonants.5、The sentence “She always has a smile on her face” emphasizes that sheis always __________.A. cheerfulC. nervousD. sadAnswer: A. cheerfulExplanation: The word “always” in the sentence indicates a constant state or behavior. The phrase “has a smile on her face” suggests that she is in a good mood or happy, which is best described by the word “cheerful.” The other options do not accurately capture the positive connotation of the sentence.二、词汇与语法知识(本大题有15小题,每小题2分,共30分)1、Choose the correct word or phrase to complete the sentence below.The_______of the meeting was quite impressive.A. atmosphereB. audienceC. attendanceD. occasionAnswer: CExplanation: The correct answer is “attendance” because it refers to the number of people who were present at the meeting. The other options do not fit the context of the sentence.2、Select the word that does not belong in the following list.A. enthusiasticC. exhaustedD. alertAnswer: CExplanation: The word “exhausted” does not belong in the list because it is an adjective that describes someone who is very tired, whereas “enthusiastic,” “energetic,” and “alert” all describe someone who is full of energy or has a positive, watchful attitude.3、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The teacher___________the students to be quiet during the examination.A. requestedB. suggestedC. orderedD. recommendedAnswer: C. orderedExplanation: The correct choice is “ordered” because it indicates a direct command or instruction from the teacher. The other options, while they could be used in some contexts, do not convey the same level of authority or necessity as “ordered” does in this sentence.4、Complete the sentence using the correct form of the verb in parentheses.If you________(be) more careful, you would not have made so many mistakes.A. areB. wereC. will beD. had beenAnswer: B. wereExplanation: The correct form of the verb to use in this sentence is “were,” which i s the past subjunctive form of “to be.” The sentence is expressing a hypothetical situation, which is a situation that is not real but is being considered for the sake of argument. The past subjunctive is used to describea condition that is not true but could have been or would have been.5、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The professor___________the students’ questions eagerly.A. ignoredB. addressedC. neglectedD. overlookedAnswer: B. addressedExplanation: The correct word to complet e the sentence is “addressed,” which means to speak to or write to someone formally or officially. The professor is expected to address the students’ questions, not ignore, neglect, or overlook them.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses.They___________(be) discussing the project when the meeting was called toorder.A. wereB. had beenC. have beenD. isAnswer: A. wereExplanation: The correct form of the verb is “were,” which is the past continuous tense. The sentence describes an action that was happening at a specific past time (when the meeting was called to order), so the past continuous tense is appropriate. The other options are incorrect because they do not match the context or the tense required.7、Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The teacher was surprised by the student’s_ability to understand complex concepts.A)surpriseB)surprisedC)surprisingD)surpriseablyAnswer: C) surprisingExplanation: The correct answer is “surprising” because it is the adjective form that describes the student’s ability. “Surprise” is a noun, “surprised” is the past participle form of the verb, and “surpriseably” is not a word.8、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the given verb in brackets.They (be) (not) aware of the changes that (take) place in the company last month.A)wereB)areC)wasD)beAnswer: A) wereExplanation: The correct answer is “were” because the subject “they” is plural, and the past perfect tense “had taken” indicates that the cha nges occurred before the awareness of them. Therefore, “were” is the correct past tense form of “be.”9.Choose the word that best completes the sentence.I can’t believe how____________changes have occurred in this small town over the past decade.A)numerousB)rapidC)suddenD)gradualAnswer: D) gradualExplanation: The sentence is describing changes that have occurred over a period of time, suggesting a process that was not immediate or extreme. “Gradual” fits this context best, indicating changes that happen slowly over time.10.Select the correct form of the verb to complete the following sentence.The professor___________us a detailed outline of the research project before the deadline.A)gaveB)has givenC)will giveD)is givingAnswer: B) has givenExplanation: The sentence implies that the action of giving the outline has already occurred before the deadline.

The other options do not convey the same sense of worry or anxiety.12.Select the word that is closest in meaning to the underlined word:The teacher’s_appr oach to teaching made the subject much more engaging.A)traditionalB)innovativeC)passiveD)objectiveAnswer: B) innovativeExplanation: The underlined word “innovative” means introducing new methods or ideas. The sentence suggests that the teacher’s approach was different and made the subject more engaging. The word “traditional” would imply a more conventional method, “passive” would suggest a lack of interest, and “objective” would imply a neutral approach, none of which fit the context as well as “innovative.”13.Choose the word that best completes the sentence.The company’s new policy has been widely __________, with both positive and negative reactions.A. criticizedB. implementedC. supportedD. rejectedAnswer: B. implementedExplanation: The correct word here should reflect that the policy has been put into effect. “Implemented” means to carry out or put into effect, which fits the context. “Criticized” would imply there are negative reactions,“supported” would imply positive reactions, and “rejected” wo uld imply outright refusal, none of which fully capture the act of the policy being put into practice.14.Select the correct form of the verb to complete the sentence.She_______(go) to the market every morning, but now she has a car.A. used to goB. uses to goC. used goD. uses goAnswer: A. used to goExplanation: The correct phrase to use in this context is “used to” followed by the base form of the verb, which indicates a past habit or practice that has since changed. “Used to go” is the correc t past simple form that indicates a habit in the past. The other options are grammatically incorrect or do not convey the intended meaning.15.Choose the correct word or phrase to complete the sentence.The professor___________the students to study hard for the exam.A. advisedB. recommendedC. suggestedD. proposedAnswer: B. recommendedExplanation: The correct answer is “recommended” because it is the most appropriate word to express the professor’s advice. “Advised,” “suggested,” and “proposed” can also mean giving advice or suggestions, but “recommended”is often used in a more formal context, such as in an academic setting.三、完形填空(30分)Passage:In the small town of Willow Creek, there was once a charming old library that stood at the heart of the community.

The community was shocked and immediately rallied to save their beloved library. They organized a series of events, including a book sale, a bake sale, and a benefit concert, to raise funds.The most successful event was the “Willow Creek Reads” program, where local authors were invited to read to the children and talk about their writing process. The children were excited and inspired, and the adults were reminded of the power of books to bring people together.As the days went by, more and more people began to donate books and moneyto the library. Mrs. Thompson was overwhelmed by the outpouring of support from the community. She knew that the library would not only survive but thrive.One evening, as Mrs. Thompson was organizing a new shelf of donated books, she noticed a mysterious note tucked inside one of the books. The note read, “To Mrs.Thompson, from the Friends of Willow Creek Library. We hope these books bring you joy and continue to inspire the community.”Mrs. Thompson smiled, knowing that the spirit of the library was alive and well.Blanks:1.The library in Willow Creek was a___________of learning and culture.2.Mrs. Thompson was___________for her warm smile and vast knowledge of books.3.The town’s mayor announced that the library was in___________due to budget cuts.4.The community___________to save their beloved library.5.The most successful event was the___________program.6.The children were___________and inspired by the local authors.7.The adults were___________of the power of books to bring people together.8.More and more people began to___________books and money to the library.9.Mrs. Thompson was___________by the outpouring of support from the community.10.The note was a___________from the Friends of Willow Creek Library.11.Mrs. Thompson smiled, knowing that the spirit of the librarywas___________and well.Questions:11.What was the note a___________from the Friends of Willow Creek Library?A)InvitationB)ComplaintC)Thank youD)ApologyAnswer:C) Thank you四、阅读理解(本部分有5大题,每大题9分,共45分)第一题Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.The Internet has revolutionized the way we communicate, access information, and conduct business. With just a few clicks, we can connect with people from all over the world, access a vast amount of information, and even conduct transactions online.

Social media platforms have become an integral part of daily life,allowing individuals to connect with others across the globe. However, this shift in communication has raised concerns about the impact on face-to-face interactions and the potential loss of traditional social skills.One of the most popular social media platforms is Instagram, which is known for its focus on visual content. Users can share photos, videos, and stories, and follow others who share similar interests. While Instagram can be a great way to stay connected with friends and discover new things, it also has its downsides.A recent study found that excessive use of Instagram can lead to feelings of loneliness and depression. The constant comparison with others’ seemingly perfect lives can create a sense of inadequacy. Additionally, the platform’s algorithm can create a filter bubble, where users are only exposed to content that aligns with their existing beliefs and interests, thus limiting their exposure to diverse perspectives.Despite these concerns, many people find Instagram to be a valuable tool for networking and personal growth. It can provide a platform for artists, writers, and entrepreneurs to showcase their work and connect with potential audiences. Moreover, it can be a source of inspiration and motivation, as users are exposed to the achievements and stories of others.Questions:1、What is the main topic of the passage?A) The benefits of using social media platforms.B) The negative effects of Instagram on social interactions.C) The history of social media platforms.D) The role of technology in modern communication.2、Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a potential negative effect of using Instagram?A) Feelings of inadequacy.B) Limited exposure to diverse perspectives.C) Improved communication skills.D) Increased feelings of loneliness and depression.3、What is the author’s attitude towards Instagram?A) Highly critical.B) Indifferent.C) Positive and supportive.D) Ambiguous.Answers:1、B) The negative effects of Instagram on social interactions.2、C) Improved communication skills.3、D) Ambiguous.第三题Reading Passage:In the small town of Greenfield, there was a long-standing tradition of the annual Greenfield Festival.

Online shopping has become increasingly popular due to its convenience and the vast variety of products available. However, this shift has also brought about challenges and changes in the retail industry.One of the main advantages of e-commerce is the convenience it offers. Customers can shop from the comfort of their own homes at any time of the day or night. This eliminates the need to travel to physical stores and wait in long queues. Additionally, online platforms often provide detailed product descriptions, customer reviews, and even virtual try-ons, which can help customers make more informed purchasing decisions.Despite these benefits, e-commerce has also presented challenges fortraditional retailers. Many have had to adapt to the changing landscape by investing in their online presence and offering competitive pricing and customer service. However, some have struggled to keep up and have been forced to close their doors.The retail industry is also witnessing a shift in consumer behavior. Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious and are increasingly looking for sustainable and ethical products. This has led to a rise ineco-friendly shopping options and a decline in demand for fast fashion.1.What is the main advantage of e-commerce mentioned in the passage?A) Competitive pricingB) ConvenienceC) Eco-friendly optionsD) Detailed product reviews2.How has e-commerce affected traditional brick-and-mortar stores?A) They have become more profitable.B) They have had to adapt and invest in online presence.C) They have seen a significant increase in foot traffic.D) They have closed down due to increased competition.3.What is the trend in consumer behavior mentioned in the passage?A) Customers are looking for more affordable products.B) Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious.C) Customers are preferring fast fashion over sustainable options.D) Customers are no longer interested in online shopping.Answers:1.B) Convenience2.B) They have had to adapt and invest in online presence.3.B) Customers are becoming more environmentally conscious.第五题Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow.In recent years, there has been a growing interest in online education. This shift is primarily due to the convenience and flexibility it offers to students. Online courses allow individuals to learn at their own pace, from any location, and often at a lower cost compared to traditional in-person classes. However, despite these advantages, online learning also comes with its own set of challenges.One of the main concerns is the potential for reduced social interaction. In traditional classrooms, students have the opportunity to engage with their peers and professors, which can enhance their learning experience. Online students, on the other hand, may feel isolated and disconnected from the academic community. This can lead to a lack of motivation and engagement in the course material.Another challenge is the need for self-discipline. Online courses require students to be self-motivated and organized. Without the structure of a traditional classroom, students must set their own schedules and manage their time effectively. This can be difficult for some individuals, especially thosewho are accustomed to the routine of attending classes on campus.Despite these challenges, many online learners find that the benefits outweigh the drawbacks. They appreciate the ability to work around their other commitments, such as full-time jobs or family responsibilities. Additionally, online courses often provide access to a wider range of resources and expertise than traditional courses.1.The primary reason for the growing interest in online education is:a) the opportunity for social interactionb) the flexibility and convenience it offersc) the lower cost compared to traditional in-person classesd) the access to a wider range of resources2.What is one of the main concerns mentioned about online learning?a) The convenience of learning at one’s own paceb) The potential for reduced social interactionc) The lower cost of online coursesd) The increased access to expertise3.According to the passage, which of the following is a challenge for online learners?a) The ease of engaging with peers and professorsb) The need for self-discipline and organizationc) The lower cost of online coursesd) The ability to work around other commitmentsAnswers:1.b) the flexibility and convenience it offers2.b) The potential for reduced social interaction3.b) The need for self-discipline and organization五、补全对话(本大题有5小题,每小题3分,共15分)第一题A: Excuse me, could you help me with some English vocabulary?B: Sure, I’d be happy to.

2019年成人高考专升本《英语》试题及答案(四)Reading ComprehensionDirections:There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Human needs seem endless. They might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is enough money to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears.The first and most basic level of needs involves food. Once this level is satisfied,the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of shelter, appears. By the end of World War Ⅱ , these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.By 1957 or 1958 this third level of needs was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared:the"life-enriching" level. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction, that is, the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation, this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services. Among them are vacation trips ,the best medical and dental care, and recreation. Also included here are fancy goods and the latest styles in clothing.On the fourth level,a lot of money is spent on services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods.A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.1. According to the passage,man will begin to think about such needs as housing and clothing only whenA. he has saved up enough moneyB. he has grown dissatisfied with his simple shelterC. he has satisfied his hungerD. he has learned to build houses答案:C2. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World WarⅡ,most AmericansA. were very richB. lived in povertyC. did not own automobilesD. had own automobiles答案:C3. What is the main concern of man on the fourth level?A. The more goods the better.B. The more “39” items the better.C. The more mental satisfaction the better.D. The more earnings the better.答案:C4. The author tends to think that the fifth levelA. would be little better than the fourth levelB. may be a lot more desirable than the first fourC. can be the last and most satisfying levelD. will become attainable before the government takes actions答案:CIt was a case of emergency. The four-year-old girl awoke and smelled smoke. She couldn39;t wakeher mother, so she dialed zero. An operator immediately called the fire department. Help was sent,and a tragedy avoided.Days before this emergency, the mother had taught her child how to telephone for help. Children asyoung as two and one-half years old can be taught to use the phone in emergency situations. Here aresome points.Memorizing certain facts is important. Teach your children their names, and the section of town where you live. Try to keep what they learn within their abilities. Simple information, learned well, is better than difficult information only partly learned.Be sure your children know how to use the telephone. They should be taught to dial "zero"for the operator,at the very least. And they should be taught to dial "911" if it is used in your town.Practice over a period of several days. Over-learning is necessary so the child can act automatically in case of emergency.If you would like a booklet giving instructions on calling for help, write Telephone For Help,Box 99, Bowling Green Station, New York, NY 10004.1. Based on this passage,over-learning is good becauseA. simple information is usedB. children should know their namesC. it helps children act automaticallyD. difficult information is only partly learned答案:C2. Paragraph 4 talks about dialing "911". This number is probablyA. the operatorB. an emergency numberC. a practice number for childrenD. used to keep children calm答案:B3. One thing the passage does NOT tell you to do isA. call your neighborB. practice several timesC. teach children how to use the telephoneD. have children memorize some simple facts答案:A4. What is the main idea of the passage.A. Give instructions on calling for help.B. Partly-learned information is useless.C. Teach children how to deal with emergencies.D. Keep what children learn within their abilities.答案:COceanography has been defined as "The application of all sciences to the study of the sea"Before the nineteenth century scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between.Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant to go to sea to further his work.For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early intercontinental travelers or others who earned a hying from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question"What is at the bottom of the oceans."39;?"; had to be answered with any commercial consequence was when the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineer had to know the depth profile( 起伏) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.It was to Maury of the US Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned ,in 1853,for information on this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings(测水深)were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later,some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.The cable was laid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeperparts of the sea. Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition (考察), which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea.Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the last volume being published in 1895.5. The proposal to lay a telegraph cable from Europe to America made oceanographic studies take onA. an academic aspectB. a military aspectC. a business aspectD. an international aspect答案:C6. It was __________that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies.A. the American NavyB. some early intercontinental travelersC. those who earned a living from the seaD. the company which proposed to lay an undersea cable答案:D7. The aim of the voyages Maury was responsible for in the 1840s was __________A. to make some sounding experiments in the oceansB. to collect samples of sea plants and animalsC. to estimate the length of cable that was neededD. to measure the depths of the two oceans答案:D8. This passage is mainly about __________A. the beginnings of oceanographyB. the laying of the first undersea cableC. the investigation of ocean depthsD. the early intercontinental communications答案:A.。

Comprehension(60points)Directions:There are five reading passages in this part.Each passage is followed by four questions.For each question there are four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on te Answer Sheet.Passage OneMy mother raised me with several fixed rules.One was that a gentleman always has a clean handkerchief in his rear(后面的)pocket.I can recall being a ten-year-old on the school playground,feeling the piece of cloth directly over my bottom and wondering what it was there for.Time would tell.Every night for most of my life,I have removed from my trousers the things I'm going to need the next day-keys,wallet,and handkerchief.After60years,my body weight feels wrong if I'm heading out of the house with an empty back pocket.This rule of behavior,of course,did not apply to one's children in the late20th century. When my three kids were growing up,they all let me know that my handkerchief was ridiculously old-fashioned.They had their arguments.If you have to be prepared every day for a cold,why not carry a little packet of tissues,which saves you from that disgusting(恶心的)business o blowing your nose in the thing and then stuffing it back in your trousers?But a handkerchief is a lot more durable(耐用的)than tissue,creates no waste,and has a far wider variety of uses.One reason my kids saw that handkerchief so often is because of the large number of chocolate mouths and skinned knees that handkerchief wiped.Can you hold the handle of a boiling pot with a tissue?Now that I am a grandfather of five,my handkerchief again has been put to use.When friends become grandfathers for the first time,I often send them a dozen handkerchiefs as a small gift.In fact,for Father's Day last year my wife gave me several new handkerchiefs.Neither of us can count the number of times she was in tears at a movie and said quietly,"Can I borrow your handkerchief?”36.Which of the following is true about the writer when he was a ten-year-old?A.He wanted to become a gentleman.B.He didn't get along with his mother well.C.He didn't know the uses of a handkerchief.D.He thought his mother's rules old-fashioned.37.How did the writer's kids react to his handkerchief?A.They thought he should get rid of it.B.They convinced him of its ridiculous trouble.C.They argued with him about its harmful effect.D.They assured him it would be replaced by tissues.38.Why does the writer use the underlined quotation from his wife in the last paragraph?A.To express gratitude for his wife's gift.B.To indicate that his wife was easily moved.C.To demonstrate a role of handkerchiefs in life.D.To show a change of attitude towards handkerchiefs.39.What is the best title for the passage?A.Handkerchief:A Family TieB.Handkerchief:A Gift for GrandfathersC.Handkerchief:Old-fashioned but UsefulD.Handkerchief:Necessary for GentlemenPassage TwoAsk any group of parents to describe their eighth graders(八年级学生),and you'll get a surprising and often contradictory-range of responses.Eighth graders are often quiet and shy,yet they're often loud and frank.They keep pushing you away,yet they're still deeply influenced by everything you say and do.They can make a perfectly reasonable argument as to why they should be allowed to date,yet they can't seem to understand your perfectly reasonable argument for why they should wait.They want to be individuals, yet they want desperately to fit in.Welcome to the eighth grade!Your child is now a full-grown teenager,and she'll experience great physical,emotional,and intellectual(智力的)changes during this dramatic year.As she moves from childhood to adulthood(成年),she'Il begin to look like a young woman,and she'll begin to struggle for the independence of adulthood, for which she's not quite ready yet.Your teenager will experience changes and feel emotions she won't always understand.As a result,she'll sometimes feel a little lost or scared,and often very confused as she struggles to figure out who she is and who she wants to be.That is where you come in.As much as your eighth grader may push you away,as much as you may feel she doesn't want you around,she does want you to be involved in her life.She needs you to know what's happening to her and around her,especially in school where she may face pressure to fit in and where she'Il face a curriculum that challenges her developing reasoning skills.As the saying goes,“Little kids,little problems;big kids, big problems."And your big kid will need you to help her work those problems out.40.Which of the following statements about eighth graders is true?A.They fit into society well.B.They show conflicting characters.C.They push each other away.D.They become increasingly reasonable.41.Why is an eighth grader's life so dramatic?A.She has many roles to play.B.She is losing her independence.C.She has become a grown-up woman.D.She is experiencing many changes.42.For whom is the passage written?A.Eighth graders'parents.B.Eighth graders'doctors.C.Eighth graders'teachers.D.Eighth graders themselves.43.What is the writer most probably going to do next?A.To criticize eighth graders.B.To introduce a famous teacher.C.To discuss the current educational policy.D.To explain how to help eighth graders.Passage ThreeMany years ago,when I was working in a school in Buenos Aires,I was required to teach Macbeth to a class of Spanish-speaking schoolboys.I was a bit worried at being given such a task,because Shakespeare's language is not always easy,even for the native speaker.The language of Macbeth is particularly rich and strange to the modern reader.I myself had seen and read the play for the first time at an early age,and had been carried away by the story.So,I decided to concentrate first on the action and plot,and as far as possible let the language take care of itself.I read the play to my students,scene by scene,taking the different parts myself.I did not let my pupils read it aloud for themselves,as I thought they lacked necessary experience and skill to benefit from this.At the end of each scene,I saw to it that everybody understood what had happened,and we briefly summarized this in writing.After this,I went through the scene again,explaining those language points that might prevent essential comprehension,and then I read the scene straight through once more,This was not a very exciting approach.The pupils'participation was largely passive.I was in factdoing most of the work.However,when we had gone through about half of the play in this manner,I discovered to my great surprise that the class had taken the book home and finished it for themselves.Through my efforts,they had woken up to the idea that the story was exciting,and wanted to know how it turned out in the end.We went ahead and finished the play,working more rapidly,and went on to discuss and read parts of the play again,focusing on the characters,plots,themes,etc.Without noticing it,we did a lot of practice in oral and written English.44.What made the teaching of Macbeth a worrying task?A.The story is very boring.B.The teacher hadn't read the play.C.Shakespeare's language is difficult.D.The students hadn't watched the play.45.When did the language of Macbeth start to be dealt with?A.Before the teacher read the play.B.After the pupils read the play aloud.C.After the pupils understood the plot.D.Before the teacher explained the writing skills.46.What surprised the teacher greatly?A.The pupils started to learn actively.B.The pupils summarized the plot orally.C.The pupils began to enjoy the language.D.The pupils became very excited in class.47.What can be learned from the teaching practice in the passage?A.Group work is useful for learning a language.B.Good teachers focus on teaching language points.C.Shakespeare's plays are suitable for foreign students.D.Proper teaching methods might arouse pupils'interest.Passage FourIn their recent book,"Wildhood,"Harvard biologist Barbara Natterson-Horowitz and science journalist Kathryn Bowers point out that adolescent(青春期的)animals and human teenagers go through the same sorts of challenges.With little life experience, adolescent animals engage in dangerous but beneficial behaviors.For example,theywatch,smell and learn about the animals that eat them,gathering all kinds of information that can keep them safer as adults.Similarly,human teenagers try to have as many experiences as they can before they leave the nest.Another key aspect of adolescents is the amount of time they spend in groups.This period is marked by peak levels of peer(同伴)pressure and near-disaster.Scientists have found that adolescents of all kinds tend to make dangerous moves while with peers. Laurence Steinberg,a psychology professor,set up two experiments.One involved mice, half of which were adolescents,drinking alcoholic water.In the other experiment,human teenagers played a driving video game.The results were surprisingly alone,"Steinberg said.The teenagers in the driving study also took more risks when others were around. Just knowing there were other teenagers watching appeared to make the one behind the wheel act more carelessly.These findings reveal another adolescent quality:the desire to socialize."For the most part,adolescents like to be with other adolescents,"Steinberg said.While writing the book,both Natterson-Horowitz and Bowers were raising a human teenager in their homes.Their desire to understand the wild was driven by wanting to understand their own children.48.What do adolescent animals and human teenagers have in common?A.They like to stay in the nest for safety.B.They are interested in the adult world.C.They are good at gathering information.D.They tend to take risks to gain experience.49.What is found in Steinberg's experiments about peer pressure?A.Adolescent mice take fewer risks in a peer group.B.Adolescent mice drink more when they are alone.C.Teenagers drive more carelessly with peers around.D.Teenagers play more video games with their friends.50.Which of the following is closest in meaning to“socialize"in Paragraph2?A.Live alone.B.Help each other.C.Take responsibilties.D.Spend time with others.51.Why did Natterson-Horowitz and Bowers write the book?A.To better educate human teenagers.B.To better understand their own children.C.To research on adolescent peer pressure.D.To get to know adolescent drinking problem.Passage FiveAmericans like to be straightforward when it comes to getting to know someone.Their personal questions might seem offensive in some cultures.For example,“Where did you go to school?"might annoy an Englishman,because the answer reveals his social status. Here,it is simply an attempt to speed up the getting-to-know-you process.While many Americans are very well-traveled,they're in the minority.Don't be offended if a comment about your country or culture seems insulting-it's usually just a lack of information,and a gentle correction will be well accepted.What if the conversation goes wrong to a topic that you find private,such as health or politics?Americans can't always take a subtle hint when they're being disturbing-a light-hearted comment and a change of subject will probably work.If you're from Europe,expect to hear how many famous ancestors of your country appear in their family tree.And if you're from Britain,that sudden odd way of speaking is probably an American's attempt to imitate your accent-it's meant to be joking.These days there is little in the United States that truly offends.As a universal rule,it is also wise to avoid talking about religion,money,and politics.So,now that you know what to expect,how do you go about meeting one of those315 million Americans?As we have seen,Americans are doers,joiners,and organizers. According to the old joke,if you put two British people on a desert island,they'll form a committee.Two Americans are more likely to set up a boat-building club,or a professional association for survivors.They can't resist talking to someone who shares their particular passion,so whatever your professional or leisure interest,find a group and get involved.52.What would Americans most probably do when they meet a European?A.They would correct his English accent.B.They would hear his opinion of America.C.They would inquire about Europe's health system.D.They would boast about their European ancestors.53.According to the writer,what should a European do to get along with Americans?A.Join their groups.B.Set up a club for them.C.Talk about their history.D.Keep them at a distance.54.What is the writer's attitude towards Americans?A.Indifferent.B.Objective.C.Critical.D.Disappointed.55.What is the best title for the passage?A.Working with EuropeansB.Finding out Americans'PassionsC.Getting to Know AmericansD.Learning about European CulturesV.Daily Conversation(15points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.I have a reservationB.How do you doC.What's the name,pleaseD.Here you areE.How may I help youF.I have a very nice stay hereG.Did you have a pleasant tripH.May I see your ID,pleaseClerk:Hello,welcome to North Park Hotel!___56___?David:Hi,yes.___57___.My assistant booked a room for me three days ago.Clerk:___58___?David:Sarah Gatesby.Clerk:Ah,yes.She has booked a standard double room,non-smoking for David Black.

Japanese businessman,arms extending downwards from his shoulders,bowed from his waist toward the American businessman to whom he was just introduced.His eyes were directed ahead,his face showed no particular expression.The American businessman stood straight.His eyes focused on the Japanese man’S eyes.He smiled and put out his right hand.Both men smiled briefly in embarrassment.The Japanese man straightened up and put out his right hand.The American withdrew his hand and bowed his head.A broader smile of embarrassment.and some noise from each man-not really words,just some sounds from their throats-indicating discomfort.They were in the course of a conflict of customs;they had different habits for greeting people they were being introduced to.When people are planning to go to another country,they expect to encounter certain kinds of differences.They usually expect the weather and the food to be different.They expect to find differences in some of the material aspects of life,such as the availability of cars,electricity,and home heating systems.And,without knowing the details,they expect differences in customs.Customs are thebehaviors that are generally expected in specific situations.American men,for example,shake hands with each other when first introduced while Japanese men bow.36.When introduced to the Japanese businessman,the American businessman put Out his right hand because____.A.he felt a little bit nervousB.he wanted to express his discomfortC.he felt a little offended by the Japanese manD.he wanted to shake hands with the Japanese man37.The two businessmen behaved differently because____.A.they followed their own greeting customsB.they were not used to the strange atmosphereC.they couldn’t speak each other’ S languageD.they had never met each other before38.Paragraph 4 tells us that when visiting a foreign country,____.A.it is very uncommon for one to encounter embarrassing situationsB.it is hard for one to adapt to the material aspects of life thereC.people often expect tO meet differences in customsD.people expect the same kind of food and weather39.This passage is mainly about____.A.cultural invasion B.the understanding of customsC.business talks D.differences in handshakesPassageTwoMr.Leonard,the principal of the Bedford Academy High School in Bedford-Stuyvesant,Brooklyn,is a man of many solutions,many of them creative,many of them,apparently, also effective.In New York City, only about 50 percent of students manage to graduate in four years.At Bedford Academy 63 percent of the students qualify for free lunch,a majority of which are being raised by a single mother andanother significant number are being raised by someone other than a parent.Yet close to 95 percent of students graduate,and actually every one of those goes on to college.Mr.Leonard does not achieve those results by admitting only high-testing students into his school.Of the students arriving with lower test scores,Mr.Leonard says that he is not looking for the students with the highest grades,or even the best behavior.He’ S looking for the ones who understand his basic mission of discipline and respect,and are willing to devote themselves to his regular training course.The Bedford Academy High School is famous for its autonomy.For Mr.Leonard,autonomy means insisting that all entering students spend their Saturday mornings in preparatory classes the summer before they enroll.Autonomy also means an automatic weeklong suspension for any student who “disrespects a female,”said Mr.Leonard.It means requiring struggling students,in the weeks before the Regents exams,to attend studying sessions on Saturday from 9 a.m.until 9 p.m.It means the most senior, experienced teachers,including Mr.Leonard,teach not the school’S academic jewels,but the most struggling students.And au tonomy also means the school’ S teachers administer almost no homework.Instead they emphasize after-school tutoring where the teachers Can keep a better eye on whether the student is actually grasping the material.40.In Mr.Leonard’S school,most ofthe st udents who don’t have to pay for lunch____.A.are adopted children B.are parentlessC.are homeless D.have a single parent41.What can be a good indication of the Bedford School’ s success?A.63 percent of its students go on to college.B.A high percentage of students enjoy free lunch.C.All the graduates from the school go on to college.D.The number of its graduates is twice that of New York High School42.What does Mr.Leonard expect from those low-testing students?A.The highest scores.B.The best behaviour.C.Respectfulness and discipline.D.Willingness to learn by themselves.43.The school insists that students should____.A.leave the school if they fail to respect a womanB.attend the preparatory classes in the summer before enrollingC.do their homework to review what they have learnedD.come to the school on SundaysPassage ThreePeople joke that no one in Los Angeles reads;everyone watches TV, rents videos,or goes to the movies.The most popular reading material is comic books,movie magazines,and TV guide s.City libraries have only 10 percent of the traffic that car washes have.But how do you explain this? An annual book festival in west Los Angeles is flourishing year after year.People wait half an hour for a parking space to become available.This outdoor festival,sponsored by a newspaper,occurs every April for one weekend. This year’ s attendance was estimated at 70,000 on Saturday and 75,000 on Sunday.The festival consisted of 280 exhibitors.There were about 90 talks given by authors,with an audience question-and-answer period foilowing each talk.Autograph(亲笔签名)seekers sought out more than 150 authors.A food court sold all kinds of popular food and diverse foreign foods,from American hamburgers to Hawaiian shave ice drinks.Except for a $7 parking fee,the festival was free.Even so,some people avoided the food court prices by staying away and having their own sandwiches and drinks.People came from all over California.One couple drove down from San Francisco.“This is our sixth year here now.We love it,”said the husband.“It’s just fantastic to be in the great outdoors,to be mnong so many books and authors,and to get some very good deals,too.”The idea for the festival occurred years ago,but nobody knew if it would succeed.Although book festivals were already popular in other US cities,would Los Angeles residents welcome one?“The citizens of the city are very unpredictable,”said one of the festival founders.44.The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that____.A.city libraries have a very limited number of readersB.only a small proportion of the readers go to libraries by carC.city libraries provide fewer places for Car washesD.city libraries have fewer parking places45.The outdoor book festival attracts____.A.autograph seekers and authors onlyB.people with different interestsC.people who love Los AngelesD.people who like cooking46.At the very beginning,people were____ about the idea for the book festival in Los Angeles.A.confident B.pessimisticC.uncertain D.indifferent47.The success of Los Angeles book festival shows that____.A.book reading is still popular in Los AngelesB.Los Angeles people prefer library to book festivalC.people attend the book festivals for fun not for readingD.libraries should have food courts to attract more readersPassage FourHave you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?Many people are afraid to assert themselves(坚持己见).Dr.Robert Alberti,author of Stand Up, Speak Out,and Talk Back, thinks it’s because of their lack of confidence.“Our structure of organizat ion tends to make people distrust themselves.”says Alberti.“There’s always a‘superior’around-a parent,a teacher,a boss-who‘knows better’.These‘superiors’often gain when they keep breaking at yourself-image.”But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves.Theyoffer“assertiveness training”courses-AT for short.In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves.They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so.They learn to be aggressive without hurting people.In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear.A group taking an AT course will help the shy person to lose his fear.But AT uses an even stronger motive-the need to share.The shy person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels.Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image.If someone you face is more“important”than you,you may feel less of a person.You start to doubt your own good sense.You go by the other person’ s label.But,why should you?AT says you can get to feel good about yourself.And once you do,you can learn to speak out.48.People are reluctant to talk back because____.A.they have a poor self-imageB.they have not received AT coursesC.they have not grasped communication skillsD.they are not generous enough to share things49.According to Dr.Alberti,our organization is constructed to____.A.get people to trust their own solutions to problemsB.keep people as knowledgeable as their“superiors”C.train people’ s cap acity to speak up for their rightsD.make things more favorable for“superiors”50.One of the objectives of AT courses is to____.A.train people to trust othersB.encourage people to share their thoughtsC.tell people of their right to be“superiors”D.help people overcome their fear of asserting themselves51.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A.Protect Yourself B.Try to Speak OutC.Share Your Opinion D.Face Your SuperiorPassage FiveA wind tunnel is used for testing planes or plane models.In a wind tunnel air is blown over a plane ora model placed in a test section.Wind tunnel test sections are different in size depending on airflow speed requirements.Some low-speed tunnels have test sections large enough for a complete small plane.In the very high speed tunnels used for space testing,however,the model may be as small as a pencil.There are two ways of feeding air to the test section.In the constant flow tunnel,airflow produced by electric fans is forced through the tunnel to the test section,then through another tunnel section back to the starting point for reuse.The other way involves storing high-pressure air in a box,sending it out by a controlling device to pass through the tunnel and test section into another box.This way is usually used for a very short period of high-speed airflow.Wind tunnels are usually used to test planes before they are flown.Problems in a plane carl be found when it meets the high-speed airflow in the tunnel.For example,if the wings are built so that they would weaken at high speeds,this fact can be discovered in the tunnel,thus saving many lives and millions of dollars.In a wind tunnel,scientists also find out how different planes will act at different speeds.They find out such things as how the air dives by the wing surfaces,how slowly a plane can fly before it starts to drop,and howfastit can climb.52.Some wind tunnel sections are larger than others because____.A.they are used for large planes B.they can produce a stronger windC.they are built to conduct a high-speed test D.the air in them flows at a lower speed53.The underlined words“this fact”in Paragraph 3 refer to the fact that____.A.it costs a lot to test a planeB.the wings are not good enoughC.some problems are found with a planeD.the wings meet the high-speed air flow in the tunnel54.As mentioned in the last paragraph,a wind tunnel can be used to find out____.A.how fast a plane can rise B.how smooth a plane’s sur face isC.how a plane lands in a strong wind D.how a plane drops at a low height55.What can we learn from the passage?A.It is very expensive to build a wind tunnel.B.Wind tunnels are very essential in testing planes.C.Scientists still have a lot to learn about wind tunnels.D.There are new ways to feed air to the test section.V.Daily Conversation(15 points)Directions:Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.I miss you,too B.It’ a niceC.Oh,come on D.for the worldE.Sounds as if F.in the worldG.To tell you the truth H.I can’ t waitJohn:Hi,Kim.I haven’t seen you for ages.How are you?Kim:I’m f ine.thanks.I moved house recently,so I’ve been very busy.John:56____ you need a rest!

When does your party start?John:Around 8:00’clock in the evening.Kim:Sounds great! 59____.John:OK! I'll see you on Saturday,then.Kim:I wouldn’t miss it 60____!VI.Writing (25 points)Directions:For this part,you are supposed to write an essay in English in about 100-120 words based on the following situation.Remember to write it clearly.61.你(Li Yuan)是某大学志愿者小组旳组织者,请简要简介该小组旳状况,内容包括:(1)志愿者小构成立旳时间、小组规模、小组组员旳构成:(2)小组旳重要活动(如:关怀贫困学生和孤儿、协助需要照顾旳老人和家庭等);(3)开展志愿者小组活动旳意义,欢迎更多人加入。
2024年成人高考成考英语(高起本)模拟试题与参考答案一、语音知识(本大题有5小题,每小题2分,共10分)1、Listen to the following words and choose the one whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the others:A. dropB. sportC. workD. wordAnswer: CExplanation: In this option, the underlined part is pronounced /ɜːr/, while in the other options, it is pronounced /ɔː/ or /ɑː/ depending on the context.2、Choose the word whose underlined part has a different pronunciation from the others:A. withB. thickC. richD. witherAnswer: DExplanation: The underlined part in “thick” and “rich” is pronounced /ɪ/, while in “with” and “wither,” it is pronounced /ɪ/. The difference lies in the “th” in “wither,” which changes the pronunciation to /iː/.3、Listen to the following sentences and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the rest:A. catB. canC. carD. cartAnswer: B (can)Explanation: The other words are all pronounced with the “k” sound at the beginning. The word “can” has the “k” sound before the “an” vowel combination, but it’s not pronounced as a separate “k” sound.4、Choose the sentence that contains an example of the schwa sound:A. She has a cat.B. It is a small cat.C. The cat is beautiful.D. With a cat in the room.Answer: B (It is a small cat)Explanation: The schwa sound is represented by the symbol əand is a weak vowel sound. In option B, the word “is” is pronounced with a schwa sound, which is characteristic of the schwa. The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识(本大题有15小题,每小题2分,共30分)1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析:本题考查时态。

Reading Comprehension (60 points)Directions:There are five reading passages in this part.Eachpassage is followed by four questions.For each question thereare four suggested answers marked A,B,C and D.Choose onebest answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the AnswerSheet.Passage OneAt first glance, there hardly seems to be any comparisonbetween Ravenna and Rome, but back in the 5th century, it was Ravenna that served as capital of the Westem Roman Empire. Inthis city. Roman rulers built monuments which are famous, thenand now, for their sweeping mosaics(镶嵌图案). Seven of Ravenna’s eight buildings from the 5th and 6th centuries are spectacularlydecorated with examples of this ancient art. “in the past, many people couldn’t read or write.”says tour guide and Ravenna native Silvia Giogoli. “Mosaics were a way to explain the religion and the political situation to the people.”Visitors to Ravenna can look at pieces of art by ancient artists, listen to musicians, and learn to make their own masterpieces.Travel TipsWhen to Go:June—October;weather is pleasant in April and May but historic sites can get crowded with shool groups.Where to Stay: Walk through historic district sites from Albergo Cappello and stay at a modern Hotel Centrale Byron.How to Get Around: Take the train from Bologna, and then walk, bike, or use taxis within the city.Where to Eat or Drink: Housed in a former movie theater, two-story Ristorante Cinema Alexander blends 1940s Hollywood flavor with homemade Emilia Romagna courses and attentive service(helpful in translating the menu). For fresh seafood, try Osteria L’Accigua and Da Buco.What to Buy: Watch the next generation of Emilia Romagna mosaic artists create contemporary and traditional pieces inlocal studios where modern artists use the same methods as their Byzantine forefathers.What to Read Before you Go: Ravenna in Late Antiquity, by Deborah Mauskopf Deliyannis(2010), provides a wide-ranging look at the city’s art, architecture, and history.( )36. In ancient times, mosaics were used to .A. display artistic achievementsB. compete with Roman paintingsC. explain religion and politicsD. teach reading and writing( )37. Lots of schoolchildren visit historic sites such as Ravenna in .A. MayB. JuneC. SeptemberD. October( )38. If you want to try fresh seafood, you should goto .A. Emilia RomagnaB. Hotel Centrale ByronC.

Because tourists get to learn a lot about the city from it.C. Because tourists can get valuable tips for buying art pieces.D. Because it provides useful information about the city’s weather.Passage TwoWhen you pat your pet dog, he wags(摆来摆去)his tail. That is his way of saying that he loves you. And, if you pay attention, you will see that he uses his tail to say so many things. Every movement of the tail means a different thing. If the dog is wagging its tail, it is a sign of friendliness; if his tail is straight, it means he is getting ready for a fight; and if his tail is tucked(塞)behind his legs, it means he is giving up the fight.Unlike dogs, cats’ tail language is not so expressive. When a cat feels threatened, he puffs himself up to appear big and his tail shakes with tension. And when he is displeased with something, he lashes out(甩动)his tail.The tail language of dogs and cats has a little story behind it. Earlier, when dogs and cats had not become friends with human beings, they were predators. They used to hunt other animals for their food. When dogs went out hunting with their friends, tail language came handy. When they were close to each other,dogs could use facial expressions to talk. But, for long-distance communication, they used their tails. Unlike dogs, cats liked to hunt alone. So, they did not need to use tail language too often. As a result, their vocabulary in tail language is much smaller than that of dogs’ .( )40. What does it mean when a dog’s tail is straight?A. It has a lot to say to you.B. It wants to stop fighting.C.

Just a year olk, the monthly magazine of short fiction for young people is getting a new editor-in-chief: Patrick Ryan, 47, the associate editor of Granta from 2009 to 2013. He left the London-based literary journal last month.Editing One Teen Story- the younger sibling(姊妹篇)of One Story magazine-will offer Ryan a chance to reach a whole new audience. “It’s really the only magazine for young aduit short fiction,”he says from his office in New York. “It’s tremendously exciting that there are younger people out there who have subscriptions and look forward to getting these stories once a month. That form is usually only presented when it’s forced upon them in schools.”Designed for readers 14 and up, One Teen Story publishes nine issues a year. Like its sibling magazine, it doesn’t carry photographs or advertising. It’s just exactly what it says:one story perissue.Ryan says young people are “looking for engaging reads about people whom they can identify with. It’s not about having a message or positive spin(说教). It always start on a character level, and it has to have an interesting story. If you look at the ‘Twilight’ characters and the ‘Harry Potter’ characters, they feel very contemporary.”Ryan also sees the magazine as a way to encourage talented authors. “ I would love th make One Teen Story the first publication for writers who then go on and keep at this business.I just really love the idea that this magazine would be the starting point for somebody –would be the push to make a talented writer feel that it was worth keeping at this.”( )44.

Political teachings and moral messages.( )47. In the last paragraph, the underlined phrase “this business” means .A. reading stories.B. writing storiesC. editing magazinesD. making moneyPassage FourCouples are restricting the size of their families in the UK because of cash worries brought on by the financial crisis and the subsequent decline. We’re now up to nearly 3.7 million families where there is an only child, a rise from about 3.3 million in 2005. That means nearly half of all parents have only one child.Financial worries aren’t the only driver. The trend towardslater motherbood has been mentioned as a cause, as have soaring casts of raising a child, which have been calculated as $222,500 from birth to 21 years of age. This is an increase of nearly 40% in 10 years.The increasing availability of IVF(试管婴儿)is also a factor and an interesting one. Couples who might have remained childless in the past now invest in IVF and get pregnant. And because of the cost they stop after one child.It may not be a bad thing; there are outstanding examples of talented only children. Some argue that being an only child promoted their success. These include actors Natalie Portman and AI Pacino, golfer. Tiger Woods and even Queen Victoria. A study from the Institute for Social and Economic Research at the University of Essex also showed that the fewer brothers and sisters a child has, the happier they are. It seems fighting for parental attention and affection-which sometimes descends into physical fights-is mor stressful than any adult had previously thought. And it’s not compensated(弥补)by having a playmate.( )48. The smaller size of UK families is mainly related to .A. financial problemsB. technical problemsC. health problemsD. cultural problems( )49. The passage shows that IVF is .A. safer than natural pregnancyB. very popular inUKC. very expensiveD. a riskyinvestment( )50. What is a proved advantage of one-child family?A. Improved family lifeB. Higher number of sports stars.C. Efficient family education.D. Promotion of children’s success.( )51. The findings of the institute at the University of Essex might mean that .A. the only children’s lack of playmates causes problemsB. the only children are much happier than othersC. parents-children relationship is off balanceD. children have to struggle for parental lovePassage FiveAbout 79 million Americans have pre-diabetes(糖尿病前期).That means they have blood sugar that’s higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed(诊断)with type 2-at least not yet. One long-term study reported by the American Diabetes Association found that 11% of people with pre-diabetes develop the full-blown disease each year. Another study shows that pre-diabetes will probably become type 2 in 10 years or less.Yet, that process is not inevitable. Last year, scientists in Colorado found that people with pre-diabeles who lowered their blood sugar to normal levels—levels—even briefly—were 56% less likely to reach type 2 levels.If you have pre-diabetes, here are four steps to help prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis.Lose 7% of your body weight. That is about 15 pounds for the persons who weigh 200. Dropping that small percentage has been shown to lower the risk of developing type 2 by close to 60%.Exercise 30 minutes five days a week. Whether you do the 30 minutes in one shot or in three 10-minute sessions, the benefit is the same. Choose certain exercises, such as fast walking,playing tennis or lifting weights. Physical activity such as sweeping floors works,too.Turn to your doctor. In some cases, pre-diabetes raises the risk of heart disease and stroke by 50%. Your doctor may usesome medicine to control your glucose(葡萄糖)levels and keep your blood pressure in check.Know your numbers. To see if your pre-diabetes is improving, have your blood sugar checked regularly. A fasting blood sugar of 100 to 125 mg/dl suggests pre-disbetes; 126 mg/dl or above is diabetes; and below 100 is normal. Other tests, including glucosc tolerance and AIC, also are used to monitor blood sugar. ( )52.What do we learn from the two studies mentioned in Para graph 1?A. Pre-diabetes will surely become type 2 diabetes.B. Pre-diabetes is likely to become diabetes within years.C. Enough attention should be paid to the treatment of type 2.D. Pre- diabetes is ranked No. 1 danger threatening Americans’health.( )53. To prevent or delay a diabetes diagnosis, people with pre-diabetes should pay most attention to .A. glucose levelsB. exercisesC. heart diseaseD. stroke( )54. Which of the following suggests that you have pre-diabetes?A. 70 mg/dl.B. 90 mg/dl.C. 110 mg/dl.D.130 mg/dl.( )55. What column of a newspaper is most likely to have this article?A. Technology.B. Entertainment.C. Education.D. Health.Ⅴ.
