4. 【参考答案】C【答案详解】本题考査给别人提供征询服务时的礼貌用语。

For each of them . there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage oneM ichael Phelps has already been considered by some as the greatest all-around competitor in the history of his sport. At the 2023 U.S. Trials, Phelps qualified for Athens in six individual events across every possible stroke. He finally earned five titles of Olympic champion. Should Phelps match Mark Spitz’s record in Athens or Beijing in 2023, he will earn a $1 million bonus from his sponsor. Michael Phelps was born to June 30, 1985. His father was a good athlete, and passed his ability on to his kids.Michael’s coach told Michaelc’s mother that her son was a raretelent.Long-limbed with big hands and feet, he took to instruction very well, loved to work hard and never seemed nervous is competition. By all accounts, his frame is perfect for a swimmer. His big hands and feet are like paddles in the water. The butterfly is his signature stroke, but he’s shown the ability to dominate in any event.In 1999,Michael broke a record in the 200-meter butterfly for the 20-year-old age group at th Junior Nationals.At 15, Michael became the youngest swimmer to compete Sydney Olympics for the U.S.in 68 years. In an astonishing performance, he medaled six times and set five world records. Michael won the 200-meter butterfly with a new world mark, and also turned in record times in the 100-meter butterfly and 200-meter individual medley (混合泳)—doing so on the same day, which was a first in swimming history.Outside of his swimming career,Michael was a normal teenager.He didn’t like getting out of the bed in the morning; but refused to slow down once his day began.Michael has his sights set on more than Olympic glory.He wants to transform his sport the way other great athletes like Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods have.16.Which of the following is the biggest achievement of Michael Phelps so far?A. An all-around competitor in the history of swimming.B. Breaking of a record in the 200-meter butterfly.C. Six individual events across every possible stroke.D. Five titles of Olympic champion.17. From Paragraph 1 it can be inferred that the passage waswritten_______.A. right in 2023B. at a time between 2023 and 2023C. just before Athens 2023D. immediately after Athens 202318. Michael Phelps turned to be the youngest American swimmer_______.A. in 1999, when he broke a record in the 200-meter butterflyB. in 2023,when he attended Athens 2023C. in 2023, when he attended Sydney OlympicsD. in an astonishing performance at home in the U.S.19. ________hating to get out of his bed in the morning, Michael Phelpswouldn’t slow down once his day began.A. AsB. ThoughC. OnceD. Despite of20. The last sentence of the passage tells us that Michael Phelps is soambitious as to ___________.A. win many more gold medals for the U.S.B. remake history of his sport like M.Jordan and T.WoodsC. become the greatest world record breaker in sport historyD. be by far the greatest sportsman with Olympic gloryPassage TwoMost personnel managers agree that job interviews are one of the least objective recruiment methods.But the advantages of testing are not going to change the attraction of the interview to employers . The appeal of the interview has everything to do with the human factor.Most people believe that they are a reasonable judge of character and trust their instinctive feeling. We might use some kind of test to aid theselection process, but we usually pick a candidate who interviews well, has good qualifications and impressive work record.But suppose the candidate lies or is less than completely honest. “This can be a serious problem for employers”, explains Alan Conrad, Chief Executive at Optimus Recruiment. “The most difficult liars to find are those who tell half-truths rather than complete lies.”Research shows that up to 75 percent of resumes are inaccurate on purpose. The most common practice is omission.Interviewer should therefore concentrate on areas of uncertainy such as gaps between periods of employment and job descriptions that seem strange. “Focusing on these areas will force candidates to tell the truth or become increasingly dishonest. This is usually when people signal their anxiety by their body language. Sweat on the upper lip, false smiles and nervous hand movements all indicate discomfort.”Conrad does not suggest an aggressive policy-style interview technique , but insists that close inspection of a resume is absolutely essential. Only by asking the right questions can you confirm the suitability of the candidate or put pressure on those who are being less than completely honest.21. The best title of this passage can be ___________.A. How to Catch Out the Dishonest CandidateB. How to Find a Job by TricksC. Disadvantages of Job InterviewsD. Advantages of Job Interviews22. The liars hard to recognize are those who tell___________.A. complete truthsB. complete liesC. partial truthsD. mainly truths23. How were the job applicants able to lie without being detected?A. By leaving out some necessary informationB. By providing more information than needed.C. By using their body language.D. By telling some unbelievable lies.24. In order to pick up a qualified and an honest candidate, Conradsuggests that we _____.A. examine the resumes carefullyB. inspect the candidates aggressivelyC. correct the resumes intentionallyD. compare one’s resume with others’25. What is the author’s attitude towards job interviews?A. Most objectiveB. Too subjective.C. SuspiciousD. Credulous.Passage ThreeOur world is wonderful with birds that are absolutely amazing and unbelievable.One kind of such birds is the coot—a clumsy bird so unloved that its name implies something of an old fool.”The bird has a remarkableability to recognize amd count its eggs,” says behavioral ec ologist Bruce Lyon of the University of California at Santa Cruz. Coots need to be tricky because of the nunsual way the animals. Compete: One coot will put its eggs secretly into another’s nest to trick the host into raising the invader’s eggs. But nest owners use their wits to fight back, Lyon finds.Over four summers, Lyon monitored 400 coot nests near Williams Lake in central British Columbia, tagging the eggs with a marker. Of these , 160 coot nests received eggs from unrelated coots. The hosts generally were not fooled, however,. About half the time, coot parents rejected thestrange eggs completely, usually by burying them deep in the nest.“Foreign eggs were not disappearing by chance ---and that can only mean the birds were recognizing them, ”Lyon says. Apparently , the coots were alerted by the unfamiliar colors and patterns on the foreign eggs. In other cases, the parents pushed the foreign eggs to an unfavorable position at the border area of the nest, where there is less heat for hatching.Even if a mother coot didn’t remove the foreign eggs from her nest, she continued to lay a normal hatch number of her own eggs, despite theapparent extra foreign eggs. Lyon thinks that means the coots somehow kept a count of both their own eggs an d the suspicious ones. “That coots can distinguish their own eggs from the foreign ones is a rare but very convincing example of counting wild animal world,” the ecologistconcluded.26. The meaning of the bird’s name “coot”probably is __________.A. wonderful and amazingB. unusual and remarkableC. secret and unbelievableD. old and silly27. In the passage, “foreign eggs” refers to _________.A. the eggs of the nest ownersB. the eggs of the invadersC.the eggs from foreign countriesD. the eggs unable to be hatched28. Which of the following is the particular way coots often compete?A. To steal some eggs from other nests.B. To put their own eggs into others’ nests.C. To hatch other coots’ eggs.D. To protect their own eggs.29. Which would the nest owners do with the foreign eggs according to thepassage?Ⅰ. Burying them deep in the nests.Ⅱ. Pushing them aside to an unfavorable area.Ⅲ. Hatching them as their own.A. Ⅰ.onlyB. Ⅱ.onlyC. Ⅰ.land Ⅱ.D. Ⅰ.,Ⅱ.and Ⅲ.30. Which of the following is the particular ability the ecologist believes thatthe coot has?A. To trick other coots.B. To fight back the tricks.C. To be alert to the foreign eggs.D. To recognize and count its owneggs.Passage FourNational Aviation and Space Administration (NASA) and its partners in the Inter-national Space Station have agreed in principle to let a 28-year-old South African become the second paying tourist on the orbitingoutpost, the U.S. space agency said on Tuesday.Internet magnate Mark Shuttleworth signed a contract on Dec.4 with the Russian Aviation and Space Agency(RASA) to fly aboard a Soyuz space taxi to the station in April 2023, almost exactly a year after lionaire Dennis Tito became the first to experience space as a paying guest.NASA spokeswoman Kristen Larson said by telephone:”We’ve agreed in principle to the flight of Mr. Shuttleworth. However, there are some final details that need to be taken of .”Larson would not say what detailsneeded resolving , but said the station’s international partners---including the space agencies of Russia, Europe, Japan and Canada---had drafted a set of requirements for space travelers covering “physical ability,psychological ability, language ability” and “length and appropriateness of training.”Outgoing commander Frank Culbertson of the space station said the new crew replacing his was going to be extremely busy. “The station is forworkers, and it puts an additional burden on the crew to have people up here that are not doing science or conducting experiments that areproductive. This is a workplace, a laboratory, a research facili ty,” he said. Space Adventures chief Eric Anderson said he could not disclose what Shuttleworth was paying for the trip, but added that a Russian official had been quoted as saying the price was no worse than Tito’s fare, which was widely reported to be $20 million.31.

Which of the following is NOT included in the requirements for spacetravelers?A. Sufficient experience in conducting laboratory work.B. Enough long and proper training for flight.C.

Because the space station is n’t big enough for the paying tourists.B. Because as a place for doing research, the staton should be highlyefficient.C. Because a paying tourist may be ignorant of the space research work.D. Because the paying tourists have to pay too much to gain spaceexperience.34. “An outgoing commander”can probably be one who __________.A. is extremely capableB. is going to be out of dutyC. is a supervisor over the space station workD. has his own crew members35.

In the first picture, the man is shown typing on his computer with a cup of coffee beside him, while in the second picture, his wife is looking worriedly at a clock and his children are waiting for him at the dinner table.The situation is likely happening because the man is under a lot of pressure at work and has a deadline to meet. He is sacrificing his time with his family to finish his work and ensurethe success of his project. This is a common occurrence in today's society, where work demands often take precedence over family time.The implications of this situation are significant. The man may feel guilty for neglecting his family and missing out on important moments with them. His family may also feel lonely and neglected, leading to feelings of resentment and frustration. This could strain their relationships and have long-term effects on their emotional well-being.In conclusion, the pictures highlight the struggle many people face in balancing work and family life. It is essential to find a healthy work-life balance to ensure both personal and professional success and happiness.。
广东2024学位英语考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1The 2024 Guangdong University Entrance English Test - A Kid's PerspectiveHey guys! I'm Tommy, a 5th grader who just took the big university entrance English exam in Guangdong this year. My older sister is applying to colleges, so I tagged along to see what all the fuss was about. I've gotta say, that test was no joke! There were reading passages, grammar questions, and even an essay portion. I'm just a kid, but I'll do my best to break it down for you.The Reading SectionThis part had a few different reading passages about topics like science, history, and culture. The passages weren't super long, but they used some pretty big vocabulary words that even I had trouble with. Words like "ubiquitous" and "ephemeral" - what do those even mean?!After each passage, there were comprehension questions testing if you understood the main ideas and important details. Those weren't too bad if you read carefully. But then there were questions about the author's tone, purpose, and which statements from the passage supported certain ideas. Those inferencing questions were tricky!I had to really read between the lines and use my critical thinking skills, just like my English teacher is always reminding us. Overall, the reading section tested if you could understand academic texts at a pretty high level. I give it a solid 7/10 on the difficulty scale.The Grammar GangNext up was the grammar section - my personal nemesis! There were questions testing our knowledge of verb tenses, adjective clauses, parallel structure, and more. As an elementary student, I'm still learning a lot of those grammar rules in my own language, let alone English.Some of the questions asked us to identify the errors in sentences. For example:"The scientist who experiment was a success will present her findings."Can you spot what's wrong there? The verb "experiment" should be "experimenting" to match the subject. Tricky stuff!Other questions tested advanced grammatical concepts like the subjunctive mood (huh?!) and reduced relative clauses. I'm still fuzzy on what those even are! Let's just say the grammar part made my brain hurt. I'll give it a 9/10 difficulty rating for sure.The Unstoppable EssayJust when I thought the test couldn't get any harder, we made it to the essay portion. Could you believe they asked college applicants to write a persuasive essay analyzing a complex social issue? In English?! As if coming up with a thesis statement and supporting arguments isn't hard enough in my native language.The essay prompt was something like: "Many developed nations are experiencing a rise in political polarization and a breakdown of civil discourse. What are the underlying causes of this phenomenon and what steps can societies take to address it?"Come on, how is a 10-year-old kid supposed to intelligently discuss political polarization? That just sounds like some fancy grown-up words put together. I ended up just writing about howpeople should be nicer to each other and find common ground. Hey, it's not great, but I tried!For anyone actually taking this test to get into university, you'd better brush up on your academic writing skills. Being able to clearly express complex ideas in English with proper organization, grammar, and vocabulary is no joke. I'll give the essay a 10/10 on the uh-oh difficulty scale.The Final VerdictOverall, the 2024 Guangdong Graduate Entrance English Test was no walk in the park. It really tested your ability to understand, analyze, and produce English at a high academic level. All those reading comprehension skills, grammar rules, and essay writing techniques they drill into our heads in school? Yeah, those all came into play in a big way.As an elementary student, I may have been in over my head just a little bit. But I gave it my best shot and had fun getting a sneak peek into the life of a university applicant. You older kids out there better study hard because this test is brutal!If you put in the hard work though, you'll build the English skills to slay this exam. Then you'll be off to a great university and maybe even become fluent in English one day. Just don't forgetthe kid who struggled through a preview of the big test. Leave some snacks for me when you make it big, okay?That's all I've got, folks! This has been Tommy's 2024 Guangdong Graduate Entr ance English Test Exposé. Check your admissions booklets for the real answer keys because this kid is still a few years away from being able to solve those zingers. English tests are hard, but hopefully this gave you a kid's-eye view into what it's all about. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got some grammar drills to review...篇2The 2024 Guangdong Entrance Exam for English ThingyHi everyone! My name is Xiaoming and I'm a 5th grader. This year I had to take the Guangdong Entrance Exam for English Proficiency Test. That's a really long name so I'm just going to call it the English Thingy.The English Thingy was really hard! I had to study a whole bunch to get ready for it. My teacher Miss Li made us practice listening, reading, writing and speaking in English every day for months before the test. I don't really like English that much but I worked really hard because I want to go to a good middle school.On the day of the test, I was super nervous. My mom made me a special breakfast with my favorite congee and pickled radishes to help me feel better. I double and triple checked that I had enough pencils and erasers in my pencil case. I almost forgot my water bottle but my dad reminded me at the last second. Phew!The test had four sections just like Miss Li said - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. I'll tell you all about each one.ListeningThe listening part was first. We had to put on these huge headphones that made my ears sweat. The recording played different conversations and passages and we had to bubble in the correct answers on a answer sheet.Some of the conversations were pretty easy, like this one:Woman: Excuse me, where is the bathroom?Man: Go down this hallway and turn right. The bathroom is the second door on your left.Woman: Thank you.The question asked where the bathroom was located. I bubbled in "second door on the left" for that one.But others were super hard and confusing. Like this one about the weather:Meteorologist: A strong cold front is approaching the region from the northwest, bringing freezing temperatures and snowfall tonight through Tuesday morning. Residents should prepare for hazardous driving conditions and power outages. Stay indoors if possible and avoid any unnecessary travel.I got super lost with all the meteorologist words like "front" and "hazardous." I probably got that one wrong.ReadingAfter listening, we moved on to the reading section. This part had longer passages that we had to read and then answer comprehension questions about them.One passage was about the history of the bicycle. That one was kind of boring but the questions were pretty easy if you read it carefully. Like "When was the first bicycle invented?" and "What were early bicycles made of?"Another reading was way more interesting - it was a story about a girl who accidentally got shrunken down to the size of an insect! She had all these adventures in her own backyard, getting chased by spiders and helping her ant friends carry crumbs. Atthe end she figured out the cure to turn back to normal size. I loved that story and the questions about it were fun.WritingThen it was time for the writing part. We had to write a short essay in English of at least 150 words. The prompt asked us to write about an experience that taught us an important lesson.I wrote about the time I overslept and missed the school bus because I was up too late playing video games the night before. I learned my lesson about time management and making sure to get enough sleep. Miss Li was always telling us to "eat AT the desk, not ON the desk" which means don't play games late at night and sleep in class! So I wrote all about that.Some kids wrote about learning lessons like being kind to others, working hard, or telling the truth. As long as you had a clear lesson and examples, you could get a good score.SpeakingFinally, the very last part was the speaking section. One at a time, we had to go into a private room with a examiner and answer some questions out loud in English.The first part was easy, they just asked stuff like "What's your name?", "How old are you?", and "What's your favorite subject in school?" Piece of cake.Then they asked me to look at a picture of a playground and describe what I saw in the picture, like the slide, swing set, trees, etc. That wasn't too bad.But the hardest part was when they gave me a situation and I had to pretend to have a conversation. My situation was that I was purchasing movie tickets and I had to ask for things like how much they cost, what time the movie started, if there were any discounts, and so on. I got pretty tongue-tied and messed up a few times. The examiner didn't seem too impressed!Whew, that's everything that was on the big English Thingy test! My brain was fried by the end of it. I really hoped I did well since I want to make it into a good middle school program. A couple weeks later I got my scores back - I passed! My writing and reading were pretty good but I struggled more on the listening and speaking parts.Oh well, I'll just have to keep studying and practicing my English skills. Maybe next year's test will be a little easier!篇3广东2024学位英语考试真题及答案第一部分:听力测试(20分)听录音,选出正确的单词。

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C andD. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneKids often ask Scout Bassett, of Palm Desert, California, if she wishes she had two normal legs. Bassett, 18, answers, “No. I have never known anything different, and it wo uld seem weirdto me. Besides, if it weren’t for the missing leg, I wouldn’t have the opportunities I have”Scout has faced big challenges. When she was months old, she suffered from terrible burns. Her right leg was especially damaged, and doctors cut it off above the knee. When she was 14, she got a high-tech leg made for sports and put it to the test right away in a race for disabled athletes. “I remember being terrified because this was my first time,” she says. ”But my doctor said, ‘you have to start somewhere.’”Scout was waiting nervously for the race to start when athlete Sarah Reinertsen came up and said,”I’ve been doing this for a while. Let me give you some tips.” Reinertsen, who lost her leg when she was seven, is the first disabled woman to have finished the Ironman triathlon(铁人三项) in Hawaii. She works with an organization to help support people like Scout.Reinertsen’s encouragement changed the teenager’s life. She lost that first race, but gained the confidence that she needed to compete. If Sarah could do it, she could too. Training hard, she now runs competitively and also finds time to share her story with school groups.“Sometimes people look at someone like me or at Sarah and think they have nothing in common with us. I tell them that even if you aren’t physically challenged, everybody has challenges of some kind---maybe with family, or homework, or friends.” “No matter what it is, you can overcome that obstacle,” she says. “Everything you need is inside your heart. Take small steps. As time goes by, the steps will get bigger and you will reach your dream.”16.Why does Scout answer “No” when asked if she wants two normal legs?A. She’s scared of changing her current situation.B. She couldn’t have them even if she wanted to.C. She has never thought of it before.D. She’s satisfied with what she has achieved as a disabled.17. What does the doctor mean by saying “You have to start somewhere”(para.2)A. She has to do it sooner or later.B. She has to find the right place to to start.C. That will be a memorable first time.D. That is a perfect time to start.18. Scout’s childhood experience _______.A. were the cause of her shynessB. were a nightmare until she reached 14C. didn’t stop her from fulfilling herself.D. didn’t have much influence on her later life.19. Which of the following statements is true?A. Sarah shared her story with school students.B. Sarah started to compete at the age of seven.C. Scout has been inspired by Sarah’s success.D. Scout joined Sarah’s organization to help others.20. Through Scout’s story, the author wants to tell us _________.A. the disabled are mentally stronger than othersB. inner strength can help one overcome difficultiesC. good things will come no matter whatD. everybody has to challenge himselfPassage TwoIMPATIENCE has been around for a long time. There is nothing new about people losing their patience while stuck in traffic or waiting in line. But some experts believe that people are less patient today than in the past-and for reasons that might surprise you.Some analysts suggest that in recent years many people are less patient because of technology. They suggest that “digital technology, from cellphones to cameras to email to iP ads, is changing our lives. The instant results we get from this technology have in turn increased our desire for instant gratification in other aspects of our lives.”Psychologist Jennifer Hartstein makes some observations. She explains that “we have become an immediate satisfaction culture, and we expect things to move quickly, efficiently and in the way we want. When that doesn’t happen, we tend to become increasingly frustrated and unsatisfied.Some believe that e-mail is losing popularity and could soon become outdated. Why? Because many people who send messages do not have the patience to wait hours, or even minutes, for a response. Also, with e-mails, as with letter writing, introductory and concluding greetings are often expected. But many people consider such formalities(客套)to be boring and time-consuming. They prefer instant messaging。

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneScientists said they have found evidence of a giant planet far out in our solar system. In a statement, the California Institute of Technology—Caltech—said this planet travels a very strange “long and thin orbit in the distant solar system.” The discovery was made by two researchers at Caltech: Konstantin Batygin and Mike Brown. They used mathematical modeling and computer simulations(模拟) to find the planet. So far, there have not been any direct observations of the planet.“My jaw hit the floor,” said astronomer(宇航员) Mike Brown, the moment he realized there might be a ninth planet.The scientists said it would take this planet 10,000 to 20,000 years just to make one full orbit around the sun. The new planet, called “Planet Nine”, has a mass about 10 times the size of Earth. If they are right, the newly found planet would be the ninth planet in our solar system. Pluto(冥王星) had been called the ninth planet until 2006, when it was renamed a “dwarf planet.”Actual confirmation of a ninth planet would be very big news. “This would be a real ninth planet,” Brown said in the statement. “There have only been two true planets discovered since ancient times, and this would be a third. It's a prettysubstantial chunk of our solar system that's still out there to be found, which is pretty exciting.”While they did not get a picture of “Planet Nine” yet, the scientists say they are using the biggest—and best—telescopes on Earth to try to find “Planet Nine.” They are also working on improving their computer simulations. They want to find out more about “Planet Nine’s” orbit, and its impact on the outer part of our solar system.16. The newly-found planet ________.A. moves around the SunB. was discovered by two astronomersC. travels a round orbitD. is far away from our solar system17. The possibility of finding a ninth planet made Mike Brown ________.A. confusedB. frightenedC. satisfiedD. surprised18. According to the scientists, ________A. the planet is ten times larger than the EarthB. it takes the planet less than 10,000 years to make a full orbitC. Pluto was once thought to be the ninth planet in the solar systemD. Pluto was given a new name after it was discovered in 200619. It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ________.A. there is no actual confirmation about the ninth planetB. no true planets were discovered in ancient timesC. scientists have found three planets in modern timesD. the ninth planet is the only one discovered since ancient times20. To find “Planet Nine”, scientists are using all the following EXCEPT ________.A. mathematical modelingB. computer simulationsC. advanced telescopesD. large spacecrafts Passage Two“Helicopter parenting” describes a style of raising children where parents are over-protective and do too much. The term was used for the first time in the late 1960s. It describes parents who hover(悬停) over their kids like a helicopter. Today, modern technology allows these helicopter parents to hover from even far away. They can give their children directions at any moment from anywhere.Author Julie Lythcott-Haims wrote a book titled How to Raise an Adull. In her book, she gives readers a closer look at this parenting style.“Over-parenting”, she says, “comes in three types: the first is the over-protective parents who think the world is scary and unsafe and unpredictable. And therefore, I mustprotect and prevent. The second type is the over-directive type—the parent who says, I know best what leads to success and you will do as I say. You’ll study these topics, do these activies and you will be highly achieving at all of it. The third type is the concierge(看门人)—the parent who just wants to make life smoother—from waking their kid up, to keeping track of their deadlines, to making sure they haven't forgotten anything, to even doing the homework for the kid.”Julie Lythcott-Haims says she experienced the effects of helicopter parenting firsthand when she worked as dean offirst-year students at Stanford University. The incoming students were very smart and accomplished on paper. But many were unable to take care of themselves.“They were turning to parents constantly for guidance, for problem solving, to have them make the choice about something.” Often time s, Lythcott-Haims had to remind those parents that their kids were old enough to take care of themselves.21. The term “helicopter parenting” ________.A. describes parents who give children directions in the airB. was probably invented in the late nineteenth centuryC. gains more meaning as modern technology developsD. refers to parents who concern too much about kids22. According to Lythcott-Haims, over-parenting has all the following features EXCEPT ________.A. over-directiveB. over-dependentC. over-preventiveD. over-protective23. It can be inferred that a concierge mother will ________.A. regard the world as very dangerousB. allow children to do whatever they likeC. keep a close eye on the kid’s assignmentD. let the kid alone when he falls on the ground24. In Julie’s eyes, the first-year students at Stanford University are ________.A. very clever in studyingB. really good at problem-solvingC. unable to communicate with teachersD. having problems making friends25. Lythcott-Haims’ attitude towards helicopter parenting is________.A. supportiveB. negativeC. uninterestedD. unclearPassage ThreeI recently had the opportunity to go to my first ever music festival. We Love Green was held over a weekend in Parc de Bagatelle, Paris. While like most music festivals, it boasted an impressive and diverse music, there was something extra special about this one. You see, this was a green festival!From the food to the stalls(货摊), everything was as environmentally friendly as possible. Not only was the majority of the furniture/stalls/toilet rooms hand-made from wood, the festival was powered by solar energy. Guests were invited to dispose of rubbish in specially labeled dustbins which, afterthe festival, were sorted so all of the waste could be recycled appropriately. Fresh water was made available freely toeveryone so that attendants were not encouraged to buy drinksin plastic bottles which would have created a lot of waste.I found the experience incredibly fun but also really interesting. Having never been to a music festival before, Iwas unsure of what to expect. However, I was happy to findmyself sitting in a field eating a healthy, home-made fruitcake while drinking organic fruit juice. There were many stalls, art installations, and different areas, meaning there was something there for everyone, from small children to theelderly!This seems like such a great idea, making something veryfun and interesting, that does not cause great damage to the environment. I have since discovered that there are more events similar to this ac ross the globe, which is great! I can’timagine how much waste has been produced from such public events as festivals across the years before we realised just how bad they were for the environment!26. Which of the following can be the title of the passage?A. We Love GreenB. We Love EnvironmentC. Music FestivalsD. A Unique Public Event27. What is special about the music festival?A. It has a special band.B. It has a unique program list.C. It is held every weekend.D. It is environmentally friendly.28. At the music festival, guests were encouraged to ________.A. make furniture from woodB. bring plastic-bottled drinksC. recycle rubbish by themselvesD. drink free fresh water29. According to Paragraph 3, the author ________.A. fully enjoyed the festivalB. expected muh from the festivalC. found the event very funnyD. liked listening to music at home30. The purpose of this passage is to ________.A. raise funds for environment protectionB. highlight that being green can be funC. encourage people to go to music festivalsD. introduce the author's favourite musiciansPassage FourChokwe Selassie is on a mission to help drivers avoid potholes(路面坑洞). The eighth-grader got his inspiration on a recent morning, when his mother was driving him to school.Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the street in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was going to do something about the pothole problem in my city,” said Chokwe. His solution: an app that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends, “When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted in red,” Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you with a beep.” Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city’s 311 call system, so it uses information already stored in a database,”Chokwe says. Through the call system, citizens dial 311 to report non-emergency problems—which include potholes. As Chokwe and his friends worked on the app, they also went street by street throughout the city. They determined that focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test it.Although the app isn’t yet available for sale, Chokwe is already looking for ways to improve it. The app remains limited to 10 streets in Jackson, but he hopes to add more, so that it includes every street in the city. And then he wants to go even farther. “I want to keep working on the app until it’s nationwide,” Chokwe says.31. Chokwe Selassie got the idea to develop the app from________.A. his own experienceB. a recent news reportC. his friendsD. his mother32. When you are close to a pothole, your phone will warn you with ________.A. a voice reportB. a red lightC. a beeping soundD. a map image33. Drivers can also use Chokwe’s app to ________.A. report emergency traffic problemsB. look for information other than potholesC. choose safer routes without potholesD. avoid traffic jam caused by potholes34. To develop the app, Chokwe and his friends ________.A. reported potholes to 311 call systemB. conducted field trips on the streetsC. built their own information databaseD. collected samples in their neighborhood35. We can learn from the last paragraph that Chokwe ________.A. is quite successfulB. is facing difficultiesC. has regained hopeD. has a great ambitionPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions:There are 40 incomplete sentence in this part.

2024广东成人学位英语考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1The 2024 Guangdong Grown-up English TestHi everyone! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 8 years old. I went with my mom last week to take a big English test for grown-ups called the 2024 Guangdong Adult English Proficiency Exam. I'm just a kid, but I thought I could share what the test was like in case any of you little guys are curious!The test had four parts - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. We had to go to a school on a Saturday morning to take it. There were tons of adults there, which was kind of funny to see!For the listening part, we had to put on these big headphones and listen to recordings of people talking in English. The voices said things like "The book is on the table" or "I'm going to the park this afternoon." After each recording, there were multiple choice questions on the computer screen asking what we heard. It was sort of like the listening games we play at school, but a little harder.The reading part had different passages to read, like news articles or stories. We had to read them carefully and then answer comprehension questions about things like the main idea, what certain words meant, or specific details from the passages. Some of the vocabulary was pretty advanced for a kid like me!Next up was the writing section. This is where we had to actually type out answers to questions, instead of just clicking on multiple choice. One question asked us to describe our favorite holiday and what we like to do to celebrate it. Another one gave us a cartoon picture and we had to write a short story based on what we saw happening in the picture. The hard part was making sure our grammar, spelling, and sentence structures were all correct.Finally, there was the speaking part. This was probably the most nerve-wracking for me! We had to go one-by-one into a private room with a recording device. The computer gave us a question, and we had to speak our answer out loud in clear English within a certain time limit. The first question I got asked me to describe my hometown and interesting places to visit there. The second one showed me a picture of a family having a picnic, and I had to speak about what I saw happening in thepicture. I was so nervous to speak English in front of the examiner, but she was really nice!After we finished all four sections, we got to leave. My mom said we'll get our scores bachk in a few weeks to see if we passed or not. There was a lot of reading, writing, listening, and speaking involved...I'm just glad it's over!So that's what the big Guangdong English test was like from the eyes of an 8-year-old. It seemed pretty challenging, even for me after studying English for a few years now. I can't imagine how hard it must have been for all those adults! I'll leave the serious English tests to the grown-ups from now on. For now, it's back to study my ABCs and simple vocab words. Good luck to anyone taking the Guangdong exam next year!篇2My Big Adventure Taking the Adult English Exam!Hi friends! My name is Lily and I'm 9 years old. I just had the craziest experience that I can't wait to tell you all about. You'll never believe this, but I actually took the big adult English exam for Guangdong Province! Yes, the one that all the grown-ups have to pass to get their degrees. How did a kid like me end up taking such a huge test? Well, let me explain...It all started last week when my mom was studying for the exam. She's going back to university to get her master's degree, so she has to take this big English test first. She was reading her practice books out loud to get ready. I was playing nearby and couldn't help overhearing some of the questions. You know what? They didn't seem that hard to me at all! The reading passages were pretty interesting and the grammar questions were just like what I learn in school.So I went up to my mom and said "那个考试真的很难吗?我觉得我可以答对那些题目!" Which means "Is that test really so difficult? I think I can answer those questions!" Well, my mom just laughed and ruffled my hair. But I was serious! I really wanted to try taking the exam. I kept bugging her about it all week until finally she gave in.On exam day, my mom took me down to the testing center with her. The kind ladies at the front let me take a real exam booklet and bubble sheet, just like I was an adult candidate too! We had to be very quiet, of course. As soon as the exam started, I put my pencil to my bubble sheet and went to work.Let me share some of the questions with you - you'll see they weren't too bad! The first passage was about the history of the English language. It said English is a Germanic language thatoriginated from Anglo-Saxon settlers in Britain in the 5th century AD. But then it got heavily influenced by Norman French after the invasion in 1066. That's why English has so many words with French roots like "pork" and "curry." After reading that passage, I had to answer some comprehension questions like:"Which of the following regions did English originate from?A) The British Isles B) France C) Germany D) Scandinavia"Easy peasy - I bubbled in A) The British Isles!Then there was a grammar section testing things like subject-verb agreement, parallel structure, and modifying phrases. One question was:"Neither the actor _____ the director _____ available for interviews after the premiere.A) was ... were B) were ... was C) were ... were D) was ... was"I picked C because with "neither/nor" sentences, the verb has to agree with the closest subject. So if there are two singular subjects with "neither/nor", the verb must be plural! Nailed it.There were some fun reading passages too, like one about animated movies and another about wilderness exploration. The writers passage had us correcting some errors in a draft essay. We had to re-write some wordy sentences more concisely. For example:"Apples, which are a healthy fruit containing many vitamins and minerals, are a good source of fiber as well."Could be better written:"Apples, a healthy fruit rich in vitamins and minerals, are also a good fiber source."See, nothing too crazy! I was flying through this adult exam.Finally, there was a speaking section where we had to record ourselves responding to questions and giving opinions. One of the questions was:"Some people think social media contributes to depression and loneliness, especially in young people. Others feel social media enriches social connections. What is your perspective on the effects of social media? Provide relevant reasons and examples to support your view."Well of course I had to pick the pro-social media side! I talked about how sites like WhatsApp and WeChat allow me toeasily video chat with my cousins in America. And how fun photo apps like Snapchat let me get creative and goof around with silly filters. As long as you don't spend too much time on social media and you're aware of things like cyber-bullying, I think it's a great way to stay connected with friends.After what felt like no time at all, my exam was over! I was so proud of myself for doing such a grown-up thing. My mom said she was really impressed with my concentration and effort. While we waited for the scores, she bought me a celebratory ice cream cone. Yum!A few weeks later, our test results arrived in the mail. My mom passed with a high score - no surprise there, she studied so hard. But want to know the crazy part? I PASSED TOO! Yes, little old me got a more than high enough score to meet the English requirements for an adult university degree program. My parents were absolutely stunned. I'm officially certified as an adult-level English genius!篇32024 Guangdong Adult Degree English Exam - The Real Deal!Hi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm a 4th grader. My mom just took the big Guangdong Adult Degree English Exam last month and she told me all about it. It was a really important test for her to get her adult university degree. I thought I'd share what I know about the actual questions that were on the 2024 exam so you can get ready if you need to take it next year!The listening section was first. Mom said there were conversations between people talking about everyday things like going shopping, making plans, asking for directions and stuff like that. You had to listen really carefully and answer multiple choice questions about the main ideas and details they mentioned. There were also some longer listening passages about topics like environmental protection, space exploration, and famous inventors. For those, you had to listen and then answer questions testing if you understood the key points and supporting details.Next up was the reading section. That part had a bunch of different readings like articles from newspapers and magazines, advertisements, instructions, and excerpts from books. The readings were about all different subjects - history, science, business, culture, and more. Some of the passages were just one paragraph, but others were pretty long - a few pages even! Thequestions asked you to identify the main idea, draw conclusions, define vocabulary words based on context, and make inferences. Mom said you really had to read everything super carefully and double check the reference details.After the reading part, there were two writing tasks. For the first one, you had to read a short opinion article and write a response of around 200 words. You could agree or disagree with the opinion and give your own reasons and examples to support your view. The second writing was longer - a 400 word essay on a particular topic. Mom's prompt was "What qualities are most important for success in the modern world?" You had to give a clear introduction with your main idea, then write body paragraphs with details and examples explaining your points, and finish with a good conclusion tying everything together.Mom thought the hardest sections were probably the listening and writing parts because you really had to concentrate and organize your thoughts under time pressure. But she felt pretty prepared from doing lots of practice tests and essay writing ahead of time.Oh, and I can't forget about the grammar, vocabulary and language usage sections! There were fill-in-the-blank questions testing your knowledge of proper English grammar rules andvocabulary. You had to pick the right words to complete sentences and short paragraphs. There were also some discrete grammar questions where you had to identify errors in particular sentences.Whew, I know that was a lot of information! The exam definitely seemed really challenging overall. But Mom said as long as you reviewed the test formats, worked on your English skills across all areas, and stayed calm on exam day, it was manageable. She felt super accomplished when she finished it all.Well, I hope sharing the inside scoop on what was actually on the 2024 Guangdong exam helps give you an idea of what to expect. Just remember to study hard, do lots of practice, and believe in yourself! You've got this! Thanks for reading my article and let me know if you have any other questions!篇4The 2024 Guangdong Grown-Up English TestHi everyone! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 9 years old. My mom and dad had to take a really big English test called the "2024 Guangdong Adult English Proficiency Exam" and I helped them study for it. It was a super important test for grown-upswho need to prove they can speak and understand English well. I'm going to tell you all about the questions on the test and the right answers!Listening SectionThe first part was listening to recordings and answering questions about what you heard. There were conversations between people as well as lectures and talks. You had to listen really carefully!One conversation was between two friends making plans to go see a movie. The guy asked the girl what movie she wanted to see and she said she wanted to see the new superhero movie that just came out. But the guy said he would rather see a comedy instead. They ended up deciding to see the comedy.The question was: "What kind of movie did the friends finally agree to see?" And the right answer was: C) A comedyThere was also a lecture from a scientist talking about how clouds are formed. He explained that clouds are made up of billions of tiny drops of water vapor that have condensed from gas into liquid. He said that clouds form when the air becomes saturated and can't hold any more water vapor. Pretty interesting stuff!The question was: "According to the lecturer, what are clouds composed of?" And the correct answer was: B) Condensed water dropletsWriting SectionThe next part was writing tasks. One question asked you to read a short announcement about a town closing its public swimming pool for renovations. You had to write a letter to the parks department expressing your feelings and opinions about the pool closing.A good response mentioned being disappointed the pool was closing for a while, but understanding that the renovations were necessary to repair anything that was broken or outdated. It also could suggest ideas for temporary swimming locations while the pool was closed.Another writing task gave you an opinion question and you had to write a persuasive essay with reasons and examples supporting your view. The question was: "Some people believe that high school students should be required to complete volunteer work/community service as part of their graduation requirements. Do you agree or disagree with this stance?"A good essay took a clear position either agreeing or disagreeing with the requirement. If you agreed, you could talk about how volunteer work teaches good values, helps the community, and looks good for college applications. If you disagreed, you could discuss the burden of added requirements, questions over what counts as legitimate volunteering, and issues with forced unpaid labor.Speaking SectionThis section tested your ability to speak and have a conversation in English. Some questions asked you to look at a picture and describe what you saw happening. Others had you take a stance and explain your opinions on different topics.One question showed a picture of a busy city street crowded with cars, bikes, and pedestrians. To get a high score, you had to speak clearly in complete sentences, describing the modes of transportation, the scenery, the number of people, and what the overall vibe and activity level seemed to be.Another question was: "Some people believe that the best way to protect the environment is to raise prices and enact higher taxes on things that cause pollution and environmental damage. Others think there are more effective methods. What is your opinion on this issue?"You had to take one side and then explain your reasoning, using specific details and examples to back up your position. Either way, good responses laid out the arguments for their view in a logical, organized way while directly addressing counterpoints as well.Reading SectionThe reading section had lots of different passages to read - news articles, stories, descriptions of events, etc. Then you had to answer comprehension questions testing if you understood the main ideas, details, and vocabulary words from the readings.One passage was about the history and cultural traditions surrounding the Japanese art of origami (paper folding). After reading it, a question asked: "According to the passage, what is the most widely accepted origin story for the art of origami?"The four answer choices were:A) Origami began as a religious ritual in Japanese BuddhismB) Origami was invented in Japan to aid in the teaching of mathematicsC) The earliest known origami dates back to ceremonial practices in ShintoD) No one knows for sure how or why origami beganIf you read carefully, you would see that the correct answer is C) The earliest known origami dates back to ceremonial practices in Shinto.Whew, that was a tough test! My mom and dad were pretty nervous, but I helped them practice and prepare a lot. I'm not sure if they passed yet, but I think all the hard work we put in gave them a really good shot. Keeping my fingers crossed for them!Let me know if you have any other questions about the Guangdong grown-up English test. I tried to give you a good overview of what it was like, but I'm just a kid so I may have gotten some small details mixed up. Overall though, I hope this article gives you a general idea of the types of questions and tasks adults had to complete. Study hard and good luck on any upcoming English exams!篇5Hi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm a 3rd grader at Sunny Vista Elementary School. Today I want to tell you all about the 2024 Guangdong Adult Degree English Exam that my mom took last month. She studied sooooo hard for it!The exam is a really important test that adults take if they want to get a university degree but didn't go to college when they were younger. My mom left school after high school to start working, but she has always wanted to get her bachelor's degree. By passing this exam, she can finally get that degree she has dreamed about!The English part of the exam tests how well the adults can read, write, listen to, and speak English. My mom said it was super difficult, way harder than my English tests at school! There were different sections testing all the skills. Let me tell you about each part:ReadingIn the reading section, there were some really long passages that my mom had to read and then answer questions about the main ideas, details, vocabulary words, and inferences. She said some of the passages were about science topics she didn't know much about, so she had to use her reading strategies to try to figure out what they were saying. There were also shorter passages like advertisements or notices that had questions too.WritingFor the writing part, my mom had to write two essays - one giving her opinion and reasons, and another describing some pictures and telling a story about them. She said the hardest part was making sure her grammar was correct and that she included good transitions between her ideas. Writing a whole essay in English is really tough!ListeningOh boy, the listening section was a doozy! My mom had to listen to conversations between people, lectures, radio shows, and other audio recordings. Then she had to answer multiple choice questions testing if she understood the details, main ideas, speaker's purposes, and implied meanings. The recordings weren't slowed down at all, so she really had to concentrate to understand everything.SpeakingFinally, there was a speaking section where my mom had to record herself giving spoken responses. For some questions, she had to look at a picture and describe what she saw. For others, she had to pretend to have a conversation and give responses. She even had to read a passage out loud and speak clearly. My mom practiced speaking English with me a lot to get ready for this part!After the exam, my mom felt sooo relieved that it was over. She said it was one of the most challenging things she has ever done. A couple of weeks later, she got her score results back...and she passed We were all so proud of her for accomplishing this huge goal.So those were the different parts that made up this important English exam. It covered all the skills that adults need to communicate effectively in English for jobs, school, travel and more. My mom is already making plans to finally start her university degree program next semester. All her hard work paid off!I hope sharing details about my mom's experience with the Guangdong Adult Degree English Exam was interesting and helpful. Even though I'm just a kid, I have a new appreciation for how difficult it is to master another language after hearing about this crazy difficult test! Let me know if you have any other questions.篇6The 2024 Guangdong Adult Degree English Exam: A Kid's PerspectiveHey there, fellow kids! I know what you're thinking, "Why is a kid talking about an adult degree exam?" Well, let me tell you, this exam is way more exciting than it sounds! It's like a big puzzle that all the grown-ups have to solve, and I got a sneak peek at the questions and answers. Get ready for some serious fun!Question 1: What's the difference between a verb and a noun?Oh, man, this one's a classic! A verb is an action word, like "jump" or "dance." A noun is a person, place, or thing, like "kid" or "playground." Easy-peasy, right? But don't worry, adults, it gets trickier from here!Question 2: Translate the following sentence into English: "我昨天去了公园玩。

There had been a fire in the forest which had gone out.But the air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track.Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke.He waited.It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him.“There’s a badly burnt man on the farm,” the girl shouted.“He saved my life.Please help me to save him.”The girl was Cathy Henderson.She had been on horseback for two hours.She had to jump over fallen trees that were still burning.Her pony had fallen with her twice.She was thirsty and almost dead from want of sleep.But she rode back to the farm with Jack immediately.Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him.They lifted him onto Jack’s horse.The ride back to Borrogee was terrible.Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony.The pony was tired too, but its courage was astonishing.It followed Jack right to Borrogee Hospital.Nobody saw them arrive because it was night. “I’ve never seen a horse like that pony,” Jack said.Cathy praised Jack Billabong, but she refused to say anything about the pony, “Joe will write about her in his story,” she said.But she did say one thing: “If flame hadn’t returned to the farm that afternoon, Joe and I would have died.”16.Jack Billabong did not turn back because _____________.A.he hadn’t found the bull yetB.he smelt a heavy smoke in the forestC.he knew there was a burnt man thereD.he saw something moving towards him17.Why was the ride back to Borrogee terrible?A.Because Joe was tired out.B.Because the ride started late at night.C.Because they didn’t have enough courage.D.Because both Cathy and her pony were exhausted.18.Cathy refused to talk to reporters about the pony when she was in BorrogeeHospital because ____________.A.she didn’t know what to sayB.Jack asked her not to talk to themC.she was too weak to say anythingD.Joe would write about it in his writing19.What does the word “flame” in the last paragraph refer to?A.Jack.B.The pony.C.Jack’s horse.D.The fire.20.Which of the following is the best title of the story?A.Rescue of Joe Brook.B.Courage of Jack Billabong.C.Love of a Young Girl.D.Heroism of a Lovely Pony.Passage TwoThe faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes resemble each other.Dr.Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years.Each couple provided four photographs—one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later.All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues.The photos were then displayed in groups: a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later.Some testees were asked to pick out the partners.They failed totally with the first group.Their judgements were no better than chance.But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage, the testees were quite successful with the most happily-married couples.Dr.Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike.One reason has something to do with imitation.One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it.He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones.“Another possible reason,”he says, “is the common experience of the couples.”There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways.For example, if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences, their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.Dr.Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of __________.A.imitating the couples’lifeB.grouping the couples againC.leaving no trace for the testeesD.giving the testees more chances22.The underlined sentence “Their judgements were no better than chance”implies that the testees __________.A.did a good job in making their choices.B.had difficulty in picking out the partnersC.had no chance to make the right judgementsD.did better with the first group than with the second23.The underlined word “imitate”(in Para.2) has a similar meaning to __________.A.copyB.changeC.knowD.suffer24.From the passage we can draw the conclusion that ___________.A.couples who look alike can live longerB.most partners have been proved to grow alikeC.the influence between partners can be quite strongD.happily-married couples are often richer than others25.The main purpose of the passage is to ___________.A.explain why couples grow alikeB.tell how couples like each otherC.discuss the function of marriageD.describe the life of happily married couplesPassage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are: (1) “The check is in the mail”, (2) “Of course I’ll respect you in the morning”, and (3) “It was a computer error.”Of these three little white lies, the worst is the third.It’s the only one that can never be true.Today, if a bank statement cheats you out of $ 900 that way, you know what the clerk is sure to say,”It was a computer error.”Nonsense.The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it.The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does.If the innocent buyer points out the mistake, the checker, bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation: “It was a compute error.”It wasn’t, of course that computerized cashier is really nothing more than an electric event.The eye reads the Universal Product Code—chat bar of black and white lines in a corner of the package—and then checks the code against a price list stored in memory.If the price list is right, you’ll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day—that is, somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices.If the price they type in is too high, there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty.But somehow “a computer error”is supposed to excuse everything.One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge, modern computers are electric brain with “artificial intelligence.”At some point there might be a machine with intelligence but none exists today.The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more intelligent than your average pen.At this point in the development of computers, the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do.26.Of the three lies, the one about computer is the worst because

one’s own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside.Nowadays a traveler in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors.Nevertheless, this would really be a false impression.On the surface, there has been a decline of village commerce, but its power is still remarkable.Our local grocer’s shop, for example, is actually expanding in spite of the competition from supermarkets in the nearest town.Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doing their shopping, instead of queuing up at a supermarket.And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value.His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town, but he will deliver anything at any time.His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing.The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour.They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer, a red faced-figure, instantly obtains it for them.31.Nowadays the commercial services in the village are ____________.A.still very activeB.quickly decliningC.unable to flourishD.personal to visitors32.The local grocer’s shop is expanding because _____________.A.the competition there is weakB.it is a place for women to chatC.it provides good
