Otherwise, they said, children would compete with 54 and the poorer children would be unhappy because people would see how poor they were. In recent years, however, many schools have 55 the idea of making children wear uniform but funnily enough, now that children can wear 56 they like, they have adopted a uniform of their own. When some journalists visited a London school, they found that all the boys and girls were dressed in jeans (⽜仔裤). One girl said she would rather die than wear a coat instead of a jersey (运动套衫) because 57 wants to look different 58 the other children in the class.

For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSER SHEET I.Passage OneAs you are students of English, it’s very possible that you’ll be interested in England.That’s where the language was first spoken. But England is often called by other names.This often confuses people and I wonder if you know what these names mean. So, now I would like to tell you about this matter of names. I believe that you have heard people usethe names—England, Britain or Great Britain. Let’s see what each of these names means.If you look at a map of Europe, you’ll see a group of islands—one larger island off thenorthwest coast, one smaller and many tiny ones. These make up what is called the BritishIsles (不列颠群岛). The largest island of the British Isles is Britain. It is also called GreatBritain. The smaller island is Ireland (爱尔兰).Britain is divided into three parts: Scotland, Wales and England. But sometimes the Word “England” is used instead of “Britain”. Why so?In ancient times, what is Britain now used to be three different countries. People in These different countries spoke different language. Over many years the three countries became one. England is the largest and richest of the three and it has the most people. So the English people take it for granted that their own name stands for the whole island. There’s another thing that confuses people: sometimes you may hear people say “the Untied Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. That is official name of the country. Northern Ireland is only one sixth of the island of Ireland. The rest of the island is an independent state, called the Republic of Ireland. So we have the names of “England”, “Britain”, “Great Britain”, and “the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland”. Now do you know what each of them means?61. English was first spoken in .A. BritainB. EnglandC. Great BritainD. Ireland62. Britain is divided into .A. England, Britain, and WalesB. England, Scotland, and WalesC. Wales, Scotland, and Great BritainD. Great Britain, Wales, and Scotland63. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?A. Wales is the richest of the threeB. Scotland is the largest of the threeC. Sometimes English is used instead of BritainD. Britain is the only name of the largest island of British Isles64.

The ABS also forecast the population would reach 20 million by 2006 and 24 million by 2033. Australia reached its first million in 1858.While immigration was responsible for a large part of the population booms in the past, over the last five years new born made up 68 percent of the 1 million increase in population.Australia has one of the lower population growth rates in the region, with New Zealand growing at 1.4 percent. Indonesia at 1. 7 percent and PNG at 2 percent, ABS spokesman Mr. John Paice said.Australians for an Ecologically Sustainable Population: a group of 560 academics, scientists and public, yesterday urged the government to develop a sustainable population strategy to avoid further land and water degradation.National ALP president Barry Jones last year chaired a parliamentary inquiry into what population levels Australia could reach without risking serious pollution and degradation problems.Many of the opinions to the inquiry suggested a population limit of 17-23 million. The government was expected to respond to the Jones report by July, but did not.CSIRO research scientist Dr. Doug Cocks agreed the government needed to develop a population policy."With population size(inAustralia)doubling every 40 to 50 years, we would need another couple of Melbournes and Sydneys by 2050, "Dr. Cocks said.Notes：ABS：澳大利亚统计局 PNG：巴布亚新几内亚ALP：澳大利亚工党 CSIRO：联邦科学与工业研究组织31 As population grows, environment experts may be concerned about all the following except______.（A）water resources（B）food supplying（C）housing（D）radioactive pollution32 From the passage we may infer that______.（A）Victoria' s population growth rate was higher than the average rate（B）In the year to March, the new arrivals were more than new borns in Victoria （C）Five years ago, new borns were more than new arrivals in Victoria（D）Victoria' s population always grew faster than that of any other state.33 Australia' s population growth rate is______.（A）higher than 2 percent（B）higher than 1.4 percent but lower than 1. 7 percent（C）higher than 1.7 percent but lower than 2 percent（D）lower than 1.4 percent34 According to the ABS' forecast, by the year of 2006 Australia' s is population will increase ______.（A）20 million（B）2 million（C）4 million（D）24 million35 Which of the following statements is true? ______.（A）Australia is planning to build another Melbourne and Sydney（B）The Australian government has paid great attention to the public opinion about population control（C）The Australian government has developed a successful population policy（D）At present, the environmental problems in Australia are not very serious yet35 Learn More in Five Days Than Some Managers Learn in Forty WeeksInterpersonal Skills for Senior ManagersPeople management skills are the most important skills a manager can develop. What differentiates the leader from a manager that the leader has acquitted not just the technical and strategic skills but has the interpersonal skills to make things happen.No doubt on your way up through the ranks, you have come across managers who—while they may be very good at other aspects of their job—are decidedly lacking in interpersonal skills. And you know, as they have been told, that their future will be affected greatly by this lack of human skills.This problemis totally devoted to developing those managerial skills in people on their way to the top. It covers motivating, assessing, rewarding, leading and developing people. Very simple models of interpersonal relationships are used to focus attention onunderstanding one' s own behavior, its impact on others, understanding the goals of others and integrating a group into a winning team.Professor John Hunt, Program Director, deliberately limits the number of people on this program to guarantee personal attention between tutors and participants. To match the content precisely to your needs, we ask you to do some pre-course work which includes a survey of those who work with you. This data is linked to our own large databank on how effective managers operate. We then work with you to develop your own specific goals as a manager.36 How long is the course program? ______.（A）Five days（B）Ten weeks（C）Forty weeks（D）Not mentioned37 The course is intended for managers who______.（A）want to strengthen their leadership（B）want to improve their strategic and technical skills（C）lack managerial skills in general（D）lack human management skills38 Some managers will not be promoted simply because______.（A）they are lacking in management strategies（B）they are not good at interpersonal skills（C）they cannot improve their technical skills（D）they cannot go up through the ranks39 What is not true of a leader ? ______.（A）He understands the impact of his own behavior（B）He understands the goals of other people（C）He focuses his attention on other people' s behavior（D）He knows how to motivate people40 According to the last paragraph, which of the following is true? ______.（A）Tutors will make a survey of the participants（B）The participants will finish a survey as a course project（C）The number of participants is restricted（D）Effective managers will present lectures for participants40 Very high waves are destructive when they strike the land. Fortunately, this seldom happens. One reason is that out at sea, waves moving in one direction almost always run into waves moving in a different direction. The two sets of waves tend to cancel each other out. Another reason is that water is shallower near the shore. As a wave gets closer to land, the shallow bottom helps reduce its strength.But the power of waves striking the shore can still be very great. During a winter gale, waves sometimes strike the shore with the force of 6, 000 pounds for each square foot. That means a wave, 25 feet high and 500 feet long it face, may strike the shore with a force of 75 million pounds.Yet the waves, no matter how big or how violent, affect only the surface of the sea. During the most raging storms, the water a hundred fathoms(600 feet)beneath the surface is just as calm as a day without a breath of wind.41 According to the passage, destruction caused by high waves occurs______.（A）regularly（B）rarely（C）always（D）predictably42 We know from this passage that out at sea, when waves going in opposite directions meet, their force______.（A）causes great damage（B）is liable to lessen（C）extends to the ocean floor（D）increase rapidly43 It' s clear from the passage that coastal depth______.（A）is the only factor influencing the strength of high waves（B）influences the power of high waves（C）has no influence upon the strength of very high waves（D）is irrelevant to the question of the power of high waves44 From the second paragraph of the passage we know that the power of very high waves striking the shore is______.（A）constant（B）equalized（C）variable（D）perpetual45 From your reading of the passage, which of the following is true? ______.（A）At a depth of 1200 feet the effects of a violent surface storm are frightful（B）A submarine commander navigating his vessel at a depth of 700 feet will not be affected by a raging surface storm（C）A typhoon 500 miles out at sea can stir up the ocean floor（D）If high waves can strike the shore with a horizontal force of 75 million pounds, the vertical force of such waves can have an even greater effect upon the floor45 Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life' s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of foods the first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite on the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1997 and 1983 , the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn' t have breakfast increased by 33 percent—from 8. 8 million to 11.7 million—according to the Chicago—based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Going without breakfast does not affectperformance, " Said Arnold E. Bender , the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, " nor does giving people breakfast improve performance. " Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. "The literature, " says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Poillit at the University of Texas, " is poor. "46 The passage is mainly concerned with______.（A）a study of the Chicago—based Market Research Corporation（B）one of life' s essentials（C）latest figures of people who don't eat breakfast（D）breakfast and human health47 For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that______.（A）several studies have been done in the past few years（B）not eating breakfast does no harm to one' s health（C）adults have especially made studies in this field（D）eating little in the morning may be good for health48 In the third paragraph "nor does giving people breakfast improve performance, "means______.（A）anyone without breakfast does improve his performance（B）not giving people breakfast improves performance（C）people having breakfast do improve their performance（D）having breakfast does not improve performance, either49 The word "literature" in the last sentence refers to______.（A）stories about breakfast（B）written works on a particular subject（C）any printed materials（D）the modern novels of America50 What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that______.（A）not eating breakfast might affect the health of children（B）breakfast does not affect performance（C）Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London（D）people who don' t eat breakfast have increased50 In everyday usage "hot"means "having a lot of heat". Many people think that "cold"is something completely separated from heat. But this is not true, "cold" simply means "having very little heat. "Your life depends on heat. In fact, every living thing depends on it. Without heat, every living thing would be frozen to death. All living things get their heat from the sun, which provides the conditions in which life is possible.Since before the dawn of history, man has been able to make his own heat. He has been able to release the sun' s heat that is trapped in things such as wood, coal, and oil. And he has been able to use this heat.Heat has made civilization possible. With heat, man could melt metals. As man learned to use metals and fuels, industries grew. As a result, engines were invented. These aremachines that change heat energy into mechanical energy. Engine can do the work of many men. Without engines industrial civilization is impossible.Yet when the first engines were built in the 17th century, men were still wondering about the nature of heat. "What is it?" they asked. Not until the early years of the 19th century did they find the right answer.51 What does "hot" mean in everyday usage?52 "Your life depends on heat. " What does the sentence mean?53 Where can man get heat?54 What started industrial civilization?55 When did man find the nature of heat?二、Word Formation56 Collecting stamps can be more than a hobby. It can be a______(profit)business.57 There was an______(expect)two-hour delay because of the bad weather.58 The fact that many people have an______(instinct)dread of snakes puzzles scientists.59 Attracted by a ______(lead)advertisement in the newspaper, a great number of people bought the new brand of wine and became seriously sick.60 After two months' careful______(observe)the two scientists came to quite different conclusions.61 Though he felt it______(fair)to punish only him, he could do nothing about it.62 My______(origin)plan was to become a scientist but I didn't succeed.63 An______(energy)effort on the part of all members will ensure the success of our plan.64 Many foreign words and phrases have______(rich)the English language.65 I have a______(like)for studying and would rather play football.三、Writing66 For this part you are supposed to write a composition about Staying Healthy in several paragraphs.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Y ou should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Passage 1Population tends to grow at an exponential(指数的)rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate, take one penny and double every day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cents, but after the fourth week you would have over a million dollars.This helps explain why the population has come on "all of a sudden". It took from the beginning of human life to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That repents(缓慢进行)a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960, only thirty years, and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion, which is another billion people in only fifteen years.World population is increasing at a rate of 9000 per hour, 220000 per day, and 80 million per year. This is not only due to higher birth rate, but to lower death rate as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries, such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica, and the Philippines, are doubling their population about every twenty-one years, with a growth rate of 3.3% a year or more. The United States is doubling its population about very eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8% per year. Every time a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achieve for the more rapidly growing countries.41. This passage chiefly discusses______.A. the growth of world populationB. one type of the exponential rateC. the population problem of more rapidly growing countriesD. the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth42. According to the passage, what helps to explain why the population problem has come on "all of a sudden"? ______.A. The penny that doubles itself every day for one monthB. The time span of at least two million years in human historyC. An illustration of the exponent growth rate given by the authorD. The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week43. It took______ for the world to increases its population from 1 billion to 4 billion.A. 100 yearsB. 145 yearsC. 1975 yearsD. over two million years44. Which of the following statements is NOT true? ______.A. World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minuteB. lower death rate also contributes to world population growthC. The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 yearsD. The United States is usually doubling its population on about every 87 years45. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including______.A. hospitals and medicinesB. schools and studentsC. food and manpower resourcesD. all of the aboveQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:Passage 2Women are, on the whole, more verbal than men. They are good at language and verbal reasoning, while men tend to be skilled at tasks demanding visual—spatial(视空)abilities. In fact, along with aggression, these are the most commonly accepted difference between these sexes.Words are tools for communicating with other people, especially information about people. They are mainly social tools. V isual and spatial abilities are good for imagining and manipulating objects and for communicating information about them. Are these talents programmed into the brain? In some of the newest and most controversial research in neurophysiology(神经生理学), it has been suggested that when it comes to the brain, males are specialists while women are generalists.But one knows that, if anything, this means in terms of the abilities of the two sexes. Engineering is both Visual and spatial, and it's true that there are relatively few women engineers. But women become just as skilled as men at shooting a rifle or driving a car, task that involve visual-spatial skills. They also do equally well at programming a computer, which is neither visual nor spatial. Women do, however, seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves. We all know men for whom machines seem to be extensions of their identity. A woman is more likely to see her car, rifle, or computer as a useful tool but not in itself fascinating.46. According to the massage, women are usually good at______.A. body languageB. logical reasoningC. tasks demanding for the use of wordsD. both A and B47. The word "accepted" in the last sentence of the first paragraph, roughly means______.A. believedB. assumedC. receivedD. reconciled48. In the author's opinion, visual and spatial abilities are good for______.A. achieving one's objectsB. mind and bodyC. programming talents into the brainD. imagination and communication49. All the following tasks involve visual-spatial abilities EXCEPT______.A. imagining and handling objectsB. providing a computer with a set of instructionsC. shooting a gun and driving an automobileD. planning and making things as an engineer does50. Why do women seem less likely to fall in love with the objects themselves?______.A. Because they have no visual-spatial skillsB. Because they are only good at language and verbal reasoningC. Because they are less likely to see their charming or interesting aspectsD. Because they rarely use machines such as cars, rifles, computers, etcThe U. S. government has recently helped people learn more about the dangers of earthquakes by publishing a map. This map shows the chances of an earthquake in each part of the country. The areas of the map where earthquakes are most likely to occur are called earthquake "belt". The government is. spending a great deal money and is working hard to help discover the answer to these two questions: ①Can we predict earthquakes? ②Can we control earthquakes?To answer the first question, scientists are looking very closely at the most active fault (断层)systems in the country, such as the San Andreas fault in California. A fault is break between two sections of the earth's surface. These breaks between sections are the place where earthquake occurs. Scientists look at the faults for changes that might show that an earthquake was about to occur. But it will probably be many years before we can predict earthquakes accurately. And the control of earthquakes is even farther away.Nevertheless, there have been some interesting developments in the field of controlling earthquakes, The most interesting development concerns the Rocky Mountain Arsenal earthquakes. Here water was put into a layer of rocks 4000 meters below surface of the ground. Shortly after this injection of water, there was a small number of earthquakes. Scientists have decided that the water which was injected into rocks works like oil on each other. When the water "oiled" the fault, the fault became slippery and the energy of an earthquake was released. Scientists are still experimenting at the site of these earthquakes. They have realized that there is a Connection between injection of the water and the earthquake activity. They have suggested that might be possible to use this knowledge to prevent very big destructive earthquakes, that is, scientists could inject some kind of fluid like water into faults and change the big earthquake into a number of small, harmless earthquakes.51. Earthquake belts are______.A. maps that show where earthquakes are likely to occurB. zones with a high probability of earthquakesC. breaks between two sections of the earth's surfaceD. the two layers of earth along a fault52. The San Andreas fault is______.A. an active fault systemB. a place where earthquakes have been predicted accuratelyC. a place where earthquake have been controlledD. the location of the Rocky Mountain53. What did scientists learn about earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal? ______.A. They occur at bout 4000 meters below ground levelB. The injection of water into earthquake faults prevents earthquakes from occurringC. They are usually caused by the oil in the faultsD. Harmful earthquakes can be possibly prevented by causing small harmless earthquake54. What can be said about the experiments at Rocky Mountain Arsenal? ______.A. They have no practical value in earthquake preventionB. They may have practical value in earthquake preventionC. They are certain to have practical value in earthquake preventionD. The article does not say anything about their practioal value earthquake prevention55. What is the most appropriate title for the passage? ______.A. Dangers of EarthquakeB. Earthquake Belts and PredictionC. Earthquake Prediction and ControlD. Earthquake Engineering in CaliforniaSporting activities are essentially modified forms of hunting behavior. V iewed biologically, the modern footballer is in reality a member of a hunting group. His killing weapon has turned into a harmless football and his prey into a goalmouth. If his aim is accurate and he scores a goal, he enjoys the hunter's triumph of killing his prey.To understand how this transformation has taken place we must briefly look back at our forefathers. They spent over a million years evolving (进化) as cooperative hunters. Their very survival depended on success in the hunting field. Under this pressure their whole way of life, even their bodies, became greatly changed. They became chasers, runners, jumpers, aimers, throwers and prey killers. They cooperated as skillful male group attack.Then about ten thousand years ago, after this immensely long period of hunting the food, they became farmers. Their improved intelligence, so vital to their old hunting life, was put to a new use—that of controlling and domesticating (驯养) their prey. The hunt became suddenly out of date. The food was there on the farms, awaiting their needs. The risks and uncertainties of the hunt were no longer essential for survival.The skills and thirst for hunting remained, however, and demanded new outlets. Hunting for sport replaced hunting for necessity. This new activity involved all the original hunting sequences (后果), but the aim of the operation was no longer to avoid starvation. Instead the sportsmen set off to test their skill against prey that was no longer essential to their survival. To be sure, the kill may have been eaten, but there were other purposes, much simpler of obtaining a meaty meal.56. What is the main idea of the passage? ______.A. Hunting is very important in human civilizationB. Sporting activities satisfy the desire of modern societyC. It's hunting that provides human beings with foodD.

北京成人本科英语真题2002年06月(总分90, 做题时间90分钟)Part Ⅰ Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches.In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their field of study with people who had made a special study of the subject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor's degree.Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same question, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the development of modern industry. A room full of candidates for a state examination, timed exactly by electric clocks and carefully watched over by managers, resembles a group of workers at an automobile factory. Generally, during examinations teachers and students are expected to act like machines.One type of test is sometimes called an "objective" test. It is intended to deal with facts, not personal opinions. To make up an objective test the teacher writes a series of questions, each of which has only one correct answer. Along with each question the teacher writes the correct answer and also three statements that look like correct answers to students who have not learned the material properly.SSS_SINGLE_SEL1.In the Middle Ages students ______.A took objective testsB specialized in one subjectC were timed by electric clocksD never wrote examsSSS_SINGLE_SEL2.The main idea of paragraph 3 is that ______.A workers now take examinationsB the population has grownC there are only written examsD examinations are now written and timedSSS_SINGLE_SEL3.The kind of exams where students must select answers are ______.A personalB spokenC objectiveD writtenSSS_SINGLE_SEL4.Modern industry must have developed ______.A before the Middle AgesB around the 19th centuryC in Greece or RomeD machines to take testsSSS_SINGLE_SEL5.It may be concluded that testing ______.A should test only opinionsB should always be writtenC has changed since the Middle AgesD is given only in factoriesPassage 2The market investigation is indispensable to sales promotion. They are as closely related as the lips and teeth, so to speak. What you produce is for sale on the market. It would be impossible to succeed in selling a product without first investigating the market.In the international market, goods on **ing from different countries and suppliers are always facing **petition. Under such circumstances, they will try everything possible to familiarize themselves with the market conditions. In making investigations, we ought to get information about what similar items **petitors are offering on the market, what prices they are quoting (报价), what features their products have, who are their regular customers, etc.Then, how can we obtain such information? There are many channels that we can make use of in doing this sort of work. **mercial counselor's offices of our embassies stationed abroad can help us in making market investigations. Nowadays, our import and export corporations send their trade groups abroad every now and then. One of their purposes is to make market surveys on the spot.Certainly, face-to-face talks with foreign businessmen are also important channels to get market information. The Chinese Export Commodities Fairs and some other fairs of similar nature as well as visits of foreign businessmen provide us with such opportunities. Of course, there are some other ways of making market investigations.SSS_SINGLE_SEL6.In making market investigation, one should ______.A get enough information concernedB advertise his productsC produce high quality goodsD none of the aboveSSS_SINGLE_SEL7.The word "indispensable" in the first line means ______.A impossibleB essentialC advisableD availableSSS_SINGLE_SEL8.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A The relationship between market investigation and sales promotion is just as that of the lips and teeth.B It is impossible to succeed in selling a product without market investigation.C There are various ways of making market investigation.D Production goes before market investigation.SSS_SINGLE_SEL9.Making market investigation is very important because ______.A in market, goods on sale are numerousB every producer is facing **petitionC it can greatly promote shiesD all of the aboveSSS_SINGLE_SEL10.All the following are channels to get market information except______.A to **mercial counsellor's office of our embassies stationed abroadB to promote the quality of our own productsC to send trade groups abroad every now and thenD to have face-to-face talks with foreign businessmenPassage 3On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln went to Gettysburg in Pennsylvania to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery. The Civil War was still going on. There was much criticism of President Lincoln at the time. He was not at all popular. He had been invited to speak at Gettysburg only out of politeness. The principal speaker was to be Edward Everett, a famous statesman and speaker of the day. Everett was a handsome man and very popular everywhere.It is said that Lincoln prepared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg. Late that night, alone in his hotel room and tired out, he again worked briefly on the speech. The next day Everett spoke first. He spoke for an hour and 57 minutes. His speech was a perfect example of the rich oratory of the day. Then Lincoln rose. The crowd of 15,000 people at first paid little attention to him. He spoke for only nine minutes. At the end there was little applause. Lincoln turned to a friend and remarked, "I have failed again." On the train back to Washington, he said sadly, "That speech was a flat failure, and the people are disappointed."Some newspapers at first criticized the speech. But little by little as people read the speech they began to understand better. They began to appreciate its simplicity and its deep meaning. It was a speech which only Abraham Lincoln could have made.Today, every American school child learns Lincoln's Gettysburg Address by heart. Now everyone thinks of it as one of the greatest speeches ever given in American history.SSS_SINGLE_SEL11.In 1863, Abraham Lincoln was ______.A very criticalB unpopularC very popularD very courteousSSS_SINGLE_SEL12.Lincoln was invited to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery because he was ______.A a famous speakerB a very handsome manC President of the countryD a popular statesmanSSS_SINGLE_SEL13.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A Lincoln prepared his speech very carefully before he went to GettysburgB Lincoln was very busy at the time and didn't have much time to prepare his speechC Lincoln's speech was full of rich wordsD Lincoln's speech was very longSSS_SINGLE_SEL14.It was a fact that Lincoln's speech was ______.A an immediate successB warmly applaudedC a total failureD not well-received at firstSSS_SINGLE_SEL15.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A Lincoln's Gettysburg Address has deep meaning.B Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is simple in style.C Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is memorized by every American school child.D Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is the greatest speech ever delivered in the United States.Passage 4Animals seem to have the sense to eat when they are hungry and they do not eat more than their bodies need. It has been demonstrated that rats will, when given a choice over a period of time, preferwater with vitamins to water without vitamins even though there is no difference in taste or smell between the two water bottles. When a fragrant flavor was added to the vitamin-enriched fluid, the rats did seem to develop a taste for it and kept drinking it, even after the vitamins were switched to the clear water. In time, however, they broke the habit and went back to where the necessary vitamins were.In a classic experiment, babies of 6 to 12 months old were placed in a cafeteria feeding arrangement, with a wide selection of baby food before them. They were given whatever food they pointed to or appeared interested in, We are told that at first they showed some unusual eating patterns, but that over a period of time they managed to select well-balanced diet.So, in selecting food, rats and babies do seem to know and act on what's best for them. Apparently, there is a kind of "body wisdom", which humans soon lose. Most of us do not eat as wisely as we could. Many of our food preferences are culturally determined and influenced by long-established habits. Some people eat foxes, dogs and blackbirds, while we eat cows and pigs. So what people eat and how much they eat seems to be greatly influenced by what is going on around them.SSS_SINGLE_SEL16.In the experiment on rats, a fragrant flavor was added to the rat's drinking water to ______.A encourage rats to drink vitamin-enriched waterB find out rats' preference in flavorC test whether rats know which drink is good for themD demonstrate that vitamins are tastelessSSS_SINGLE_SEL17.The expression "the habit" (paragraph 1, sentence 4) refers to drinking water which ______.A has no smellB is tastelessC has vitaminsD is flavoredSSS_SINGLE_SEL18.According to the passage, adults' eating habits differ from those of babies because ______.A adults know better than babies what kind of food are good for their healthB adults usually cannot resist the temptation of various delicious foodsC adults' eating habits are closely related to the social and cultural customsD adults have more choices of food than babies in eating patternsSSS_SINGLE_SEL19.The author implied ih the passage that most of us ______.A eat a balanced dietB choose the food that is of nutritionC have the habits influenced by the surroundingsD like to eat the food with a fragrant flavorSSS_SINGLE_SEL20.As far as their eating habits are concerned, babies and rats are similar in that ______.A both have the wisdom to choose a balanced dietB both prefer flavored food and drinkC both have the same eating patternsD both develop a taste for the same kinds of flavorsPart Ⅱ Vocabulary and StructureDirections: "In this part there are 40 incomplete sentences.

The ABS also forecast the population would reach 20 million by 2006 and 24 million by 2033. Australia reached its first million in 1858.While immigration was responsible for a large part of the population booms in the past, over the last five years new born made up 68 percent of the 1 million increase in population.Australia has one of the lower population growth rates in the region, with New Zealand growing at 1.4 percent. Indonesia at 1.7 percent and PNG at 2 percent, ABS spokesman Mr. John Paice said.Australians for an Ecologically Sustainable Population: agroup of 560 academics, scientists and public, yesterday urged the government to develop a sustainable population strategy to avoid further land and water degradation.National ALP president Barry Jones last year chaired a parliamentary inquiry into what population levels Australia could reach without risking serious pollution and degradation problems.Many of the opinions to the inquiry suggested a population limit of 17-23 million. The government was expected to respond to the Jones report by July, but did not.CSIRO research scientist Dr. Doug Cocks agreed the government needed to develop a population policy."With population size(inAustralia)doubling every 40 to 50 years, we would need another couple of Melbournes and Sydneys by 2050, "Dr. Cocks said.Notes：ABS：澳大利亚统计局 PNG：巴布亚新几内亚ALP：澳大利亚工党 CSIRO：联邦科学与工业研究组织31 As population grows, environment experts may be concerned about all the following except______.（A）water resources（B）food supplying（C）housing（D）radioactive pollution32 From the passage we may infer that______.（A）Victoria' s population growth rate was higher than the average rate（B）In the year to March, the new arrivals were more than new borns in Victoria （C）Five years ago, new borns were more than new arrivals in Victoria（D）Victoria' s population always grew faster than that of any other state.33 Australia' s population growth rate is______.（A）higher than 2 percent（B）higher than 1.4 percent but lower than 1. 7 percent（C）higher than 1.7 percent but lower than 2 percent（D）lower than 1.4 percent34 According to the ABS' forecast, by the year of 2006 Australia' s is population will increase ______.（A）20 million（B）2 million（C）4 million（D）24 million35 Which of the following statements is true? ______.（A）Australia is planning to build another Melbourne and Sydney（B）The Australian government has paid great attention to the public opinion about population control（C）The Australian government has developed a successful population policy（D）At present, the environmental problems in Australia are not very serious yet35 Learn More in Five Days Than Some Managers Learn in Forty WeeksInterpersonal Skills for Senior ManagersPeople management skills are the most important skills a manager can develop. What differentiates the leader from a manager that the leader has acquitted not just the technical and strategic skills but has the interpersonal skills to make things happen.No doubt on your way up through the ranks, you have come across managers who—while they may be very good at other aspects of their job—are decidedly lacking in interpersonal skills. And you know, as they have been told, that their future will be affected greatly by this lack of human skills.This problemis totally devoted to developing those managerial skills in people on their way to the top. It covers motivating, assessing, rewarding, leading and developing people. Very simple models of interpersonal relationships are used to focus attention onunderstanding one' s own behavior, its impact on others, understanding the goals of others and integrating a group into a winning team.Professor John Hunt, Program Director, deliberately limits the number of people on this program to guarantee personal attention between tutors and participants. To match the content precisely to your needs, we ask you to do some pre-course work which includes a survey of those who work with you. This data is linked to our own large databank on how effective managers operate. We then work with you to develop your own specific goals as a manager.36 How long is the course program? ______.（A）Five days（B）T en weeks（C）Forty weeks（D）Not mentioned37 The course is intended for managers who______.（A）want to strengthen their leadership（B）want to improve their strategic and technical skills（C）lack managerial skills in general（D）lack human management skills38 Some managers will not be promoted simply because______.（A）they are lacking in management strategies（B）they are not good at interpersonal skills（C）they cannot improve their technical skills（D）they cannot go up through the ranks39 What is not true of a leader ? ______.（A）He understands the impact of his own behavior（B）He understands the goals of other people（C）He focuses his attention on other people' s behavior（D）He knows how to motivate people40 According to the last paragraph, which of the following is true? ______.（A）Tutors will make a survey of the participants（B）The participants will finish a survey as a course project （C）The number of participants is restricted（D）Effective managers will present lectures for participants40 Very high waves are destructive when they strike the land. Fortunately, this seldom happens. One reason is that out at sea, waves moving in one direction almost always run into waves moving in a different direction. The two sets of waves tend to cancel each other out. Another reason is that water is shallower near the shore. As a wave gets closer to land, the shallow bottom helps reduce its strength.But the power of waves striking the shore can still be very great. During a winter gale, waves sometimes strike the shore with the force of 6, 000 pounds for each square foot. That means a wave, 25 feet high and 500 feet long it face, may strike the shore with a force of 75 million pounds.Yet the waves, no matter how big or how violent, affect only the surface of the sea. During the most raging storms, the water a hundred fathoms(600 feet)beneath the surface is just as calm as a day without a breath of wind.41 According to the passage, destruction caused by high waves occurs______.（A）regularly（B）rarely（C）always（D）predictably42 We know from this passage that out at sea, when waves going in opposite directions meet, their force______.（A）causes great damage（B）is liable to lessen（C）extends to the ocean floor（D）increase rapidly43 It' s clear from the passage that coastal depth______.（A）is the only factor influencing the strength of high waves （B）influences the power of high waves（C）has no influence upon the strength of very high waves （D）is irrelevant to the question of the power of high waves44 From the second paragraph of the passage we know that the power of very high waves striking the shore is______.（A）constant（B）equalized（C）variable（D）perpetual45 From your reading of the passage, which of the following is true? ______.（A）At a depth of 1200 feet the effects of a violent surfacestorm are frightful（B）A submarine commander navigating his vessel at a depth of 700 feet will not be affected by a raging surface storm （C）A typhoon 500 miles out at sea can stir up the ocean floor（D）If high waves can strike the shore with a horizontal force of 75 million pounds, the vertical force of such waves can have an even greater effect upon the floor45 Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life' s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of foods the first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite on the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1997 and 1983 , the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn' t have breakfast increased by 33 percent—from 8. 8 million to 11.7 million—according to the Chicago—based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Going without breakfast does not affectperformance, " Said Arnold E. Bender , the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, " nor does giving people breakfast improve performance. " Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate and most of the recent work involveschildren, not adults. "The literature, " says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Poillit at the University of Texas, " is poor. "46 The passage is mainly concerned with______.（A）a study of the Chicago—based Market Research Corporation（B）one of life' s essentials（C）latest figures of people who don't eat breakfast（D）breakfast and human health47 For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that______.（A）several studies have been done in the past few years （B）not eating breakfast does no harm to one' s health（C）adults have especially made studies in this field（D）eating little in the morning may be good for health48 In the third paragraph "nor does giving people breakfast improve performance, "means______.（A）anyone without breakfast does improve his performance（B）not giving people breakfast improves performance（C）people having breakfast do improve their performance （D）having breakfast does not improve performance, either49 The word "literature" in the last sentence refers to______.（A）stories about breakfast（B）written works on a particular subject（C）any printed materials（D）the modern novels of America50 What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that______.（A）not eating breakfast might affect the health of children （B）breakfast does not affect performance（C）Professor Bender once taught college courses innutrition in London（D）people who don' t eat breakfast have increased50 In everyday usage "hot"means "having a lot of heat". Many people think that "cold"is something completely separated from heat. But this is not true, "cold" simply means "having very little heat. "Your life depends on heat. In fact, every living thing depends on it. Without heat, every living thing would be frozen to death. All living things get their heat from the sun, which provides the conditions in which life is possible.Since before the dawn of history, man has been able to make his own heat. He has been able to release the sun' s heat that is trapped in things such as wood, coal, and oil. And he has been able to use this heat.Heat has made civilization possible. With heat, man could melt metals. As man learned to use metals and fuels, industries grew. As a result, engines were invented. These aremachines that change heat energy into mechanical energy. Engine can do the work of many men. Without engines industrial civilization is impossible.Yet when the first engines were built in the 17th century, men were still wondering about the nature of heat. "What is it?" they asked. Not until the early years of the 19th century did they find the right answer.51 What does "hot" mean in everyday usage?52 "Your life depends on heat. " What does the sentence mean?53 Where can man get heat?54 What started industrial civilization?55 When did man find the nature of heat?二、Word Formation56 Collecting stamps can be more than a hobby. It can be a______(profit)business.57 There was an______(expect)two-hour delay because of the bad weather.58 The fact that many people have an______(instinct)dread of snakes puzzles scientists.59 Attracted by a ______(lead)advertisement in the newspaper,a great number of people bought the new brand of wine and became seriously sick.60 After two months' careful______(observe)the two scientists came to quite different conclusions.61 Though he felt it______(fair)to punish only him, he could do nothing about it.62 My______(origin)plan was to become a scientist but I didn't succeed.63 An______(energy)effort on the part of all members will ensure the success of our plan.64 Many foreign words and phrases have______(rich)the English language.。

The government was expected to respond to the Jones report by July, but did not.CSIRO research scientist Dr.Dong Cocks agreed the government needed to develop a population policy."With population size(in Australia)doubling every 40 to 50 years, we would need another couple of Melboumes and Sydneys by 2050,"Dr.Cocks said.Notes: ABS 澳大利亚统计局PNG 巴布亚新几内亚ALP 澳大利亚工党CSIRO 联邦科学--工业研究组织31.As population grows, environment experts may be concerned about all the followingexcept______.a.water resourcesb.food supplyingc.housingd.radioactive pollution32.From the passage we may infer that______.a.Victoria's population growth rate was higher than the average rateb.In the year to March,the new arrivals were more than new borns in Victoriac.Five years ago, new borns were more than new arrivals in Victoriad.Victoria's population always grew faster than that of any other state.33.Australia's population growth rate is .a.higher than 2 percentb.higher than 1.4 percent but lower than 1.7 percentc.higher than 1.7 percent but lower than 2 percentd.lower than 1.4 percent34.According to the ABS' forecast, by the year of 2006 Australia is population will increase.a.20 millionb.2 millionc.4 milliond.24 million35.Which of the following statements is true? .a.Australia is planning to build another Melbourne and Sydneyb.The Australian government has paid great attention to the pubic opinion about population controlc.The Australian government has developed a successful population policyd.At present, the environmental problems in Australia are not very serious yetPassage 2Learn More in Five Days Than Some Managers Learn in Forty Weeks Interpersonal Skills for Senior Managers People management skills are the most important skills a manager can develop. What differentiates the leader from a manager that the leader has acquitted not just the technical and strategic skills but has the interpersonal skills to make things happen.No doubt on your way up through the ranks, you have come across managers who------while they may be very good at other aspects of their job------are decidedly lacking in interpersonal skills. And you know, and they have been told, that their future will be affected greatly by this lack of human skills.This program is totally devoted to developing those managerial skills in people on their way to the top. It covers motivating, assessing, rewarding, leading and developing people. Very simple models of interpersonal relationships are used to focus attention on understanding one's own behavior, its impact on others, understanding the goals of others and integrating a group into a winning team.Professor John Hunt, Program Director, deliberately limits the number of people on this program to guarantee personal attention between tutors and participants. To match the content precisely to your needs, we ask you to do some pre-course work which includes a survey of those who work with you. This data is linked to our own large databank on how effective managers operate. We then work with you to develop your own specific goals as a manager.36.How long is the course program? .a.Five daysb.Ten weeksc.Forty weeksd.Not mentioned37.The course is intended for managers who .a.want to strengthen their leadershipb.want to improve their strategic and technical skillsck managerial skills in generalck human management skills38.Some managers will not be promoted simply because .a.they are lacking in management strategiesb.they are not good at interpersonal skillsc.they cannot improve their technical skillsd.they cannot go up through the ranks39.What is not true of a leader? .a.He understands the impact of his own behaviorb.He understands the goals of other peoplec.He understands his attention on other people's behaviord.He knows how to motivate people40.According to the last paragraph, which of the following is true? .a.Tutors will make a survey of the participantsb.The participants will finish a survey as a course projectc.The number of participants is restrictedd.Effective managers will present lectures for participantsPassage 3Very high waves are destructive when they strike the land. Fortunately, this seldom happens. One reason is that out at sea, waves moving in one direction almost always run into waves moving in a different direction. The two sets of waves tend to cancel each other out. Another reason is that water is shallower near the shore. As a wave gets closer to land, the shallow bottom helps reduce its strength.But the power of waves striking the shore can still be very great. During a winter gale, waves sometimes strike the shore with the force of 6,000 pounds for each square foot. That means a wave,25 feet high and 500 feet long it face, may strike the shore with a force of 75 million pounds.Yet the waves, no matter how big or how violent,affect only the surface of the sea. During the most raging storms, the water a hundred fathoms(600 feet) beneath the surface is just as calm as a day without a breath of wind.41.According to the passage ,destruction caused by high waves occurs .a.regularlyb.rarelyc.alwaysd.predictably42.We know from this passage that our at sea. when waves going in opposite directions meet. Their forcea.causes great damageb.is liable to lessenc.extends to the ocean floord.increase rapidly43.It's clear from the passage that coastal deptha.is the only factor influencing the strength of high wavesb.influences the power of high wavesc.has no influence upon the strength of very high wavesd.is irrelevant to the question of the power of high waves44.From the second paragraph of the passage we know that the power of very high waves striking theshore is .a.constantb.equalizedc.variabled.perpetual45.From your reading of the passage, which of the following is true?a.At a depth of 1200 feet the effects of a violent surface storm are frightfulb.A submarine commander navigating his vessel at a depth of 700 feet will not be affected by araging surface stormc.A typhoon 500 miles out at sea can stir up the ocean floord.If high waves can strike the shore with a horizontal force of 75 million pounds, the vertical force of such waves can have an even greater effect upon the floorPassage 4Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life's essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite on the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1997 and 1983,the latest years for which figures and available, the number of people who didn't have breakfast increased by 33 percent---from 8.8 million to 11.7 million----according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast however, there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. "Gong without breakfast does not affect performance." Said Arnold E.Bender, former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London." nor does giving people breakfast improve performance."Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and mst of the recent work involves children, not adults.

Then give brief answers to the 5 questions below it.In everyday usage 'hot' means 'having a lot of heat.' Many people think that 'cold' is something completely separated from heat. But this is not true. 'cold' simply means 'having very little heat.'Your life depends on heat. In fact, every living thing depends on it. Without heat, every living thing would be frozen to death. All living things get their heat from the sun, which provides the conditions in which life is possible.Since before the dawn of history, man has been able to make his own heat. He has been able to release the sun's heat that is trapped in things such as wood, coal, and oil. And he has been able to use this heat.Heat has made civilization possible. With heat, man could melt metals. As man learned to use metals and fuels, industries grew. As a result, engines were invented. These are machines that change heat energy into mechanical energy. Engine can do the work of many men. Without engines industrial civilization is impossible.Yet when the first engines were built in the 17th century, men were still wondering about the nature of heat. "What is it?" they asked. Not until the early years of the 19th century did they find the right answer.61.What does "hot" mean in everyday usage?________________________________________________62."Your life depends on heat."
