Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IUsually when we hear the word " artist" we think of a person who paints pictures, but the word has a much wider meaning than that, for anyone who adds beauty to a thing has shown that he is an artist. In the publishing world, there are many artists besides the illustrators, as you can find if you trace the steps introducing a book.After the author ( who is an artist in the choice of ideas and words ) has sold a manuscript to the publisher, an editor goes over it. The work of editing involves artistic skill too, for the editor may know how to improve the author' s work by cutting and revising the manuscript. Then the editor looks over the manuscript and decides how it may be best illustrated. The editorand a designer discuss how all the parts of the book-the illustrations, words, paper, and binding-shall be put together so that the book best communicate the subject and the spirit which was intended by the author.Illustrations are drawn which will not only emphasize without words things said in the story, but which will add information or ideas that cannot be put into words. When the illustrations and text are completely prepared they are sent to the printer who carefully, and often artistically, sets the type and prints the book.Once the material has been printed, it is sent to the binder who makes the book into a unit for selling and reading. The binder, too, is an artist, for he makes use of special techniques to make the outside of the book attractive, as well as appropriate to the contents. Meanwhile, a sales staff is at work preparing advertisements to help sell the book.46. How many steps in producing A book are mentioned in the passage?[A] 4. [B] 6.[C] 5. [D] 7.47.

Designing the advertisements for a book is started when _________.[ A ] the book is being bound [ B ] the book is made into a unit[ C ] the illustrations and text are prepared [D] all the steps are finished50.

Geographers (地理学家) compare andcontrast 26 places on the earth. But they also 27 beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 28 . The word geography 29 from two Greek words ： ge ，the Greek word for "earth" and graphein, 30 . means "to write". The English word geography means "to describe the earth". 31 geography books focus on a small area 32 a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an 33 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 34 to divide the studyof 35 is to distinguish betweenphysical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 36 starts with human beings and 37 how human beings and their environment act 38 each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, 39 branch can neglect the other.A geographer might be described 40 one who observes, records, and explains the 41 between places. If all places 42 alike, there would be little need for geographers.We know, however, 43 no two places are exactly the same.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark four answers on theANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across thecorresponding letter in the brackets.Text INo one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure isover 450 million. The number of disabled people in Indiaalone is probably more than double the total population ofCanada.In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people havesome disability. Disability is not just something that happens toother people. As we get older, many of us will become lessmobile ( 可动的 ) , hard of hearing or have failing eyesight.Disablement can take many forms and occur at any timeof life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many othersbecome disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many othersmay have a period of disability in the form of a mentalillness. All are affected by people ' s attitude towards them.Disabled people face many physical barriers. Nexttime you go shopping or to work or visitfriends, imagine how you would manage if you could notget up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you copeif you could not see where you were going or could not hearthe traffic? But there are other barriers ： prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably representsby far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossiblefor the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severelydisabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts.46. The first paragraph points out that _________.{ A J it is possible to get an exact figure of the world's disabled people[ B ] there are many disabled people in the world[ C ] the number of disabled people in India isthe greatest[ D ] India has not much more disabled peoplethan Canada47.The key word in Paragraph 4 is _________.[ A ] barriers [ B ] ignorance[C] disability [D] prejudice48.The last word of the passage "counts" most probably means _________.[A]"is most important" [B] "is included"[C]"is considered" [D] "is numbered"49.Which of the following statements is NOTtrue according to the passage?[A] There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK.[ B ] The whole society should pay due attention tothe barriers faced by the disabled people.[ C ] Even the able-bodied may lose some of theirbody functions when they get older.[D]There still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance.50.It can be concluded from the passage that _____ __.[A] we should try our best to prevent disablement[ B] we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled[C]the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled[D]both physical and mental barriers are hard to break downText 2A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That' s the finding of an extensive study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt water fish per day than those who never ate fish.The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific backing to the longheld belief thateating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart.Heart disease is the nuinber-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths oc- curring from heart attacks each year. But researchers previously have noticedthat the incidence ( 发生率 ) of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There arefewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces.For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish.At the start of the study, the average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day with more men eating lean ( 瘦的 ) fish than fatty fish.During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those ofthe Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was trueregardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure,or blood cholesterol (胆固醇) levels.51.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?[A]The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart disease.[ B] Heart doctors won't call your house so long as you keep eating fish each day.[C]Among all the diseases heart disease is themost dangerous in America.[D]There is a low incidence of heart disease in such countries as Japan and Greenland.52.The phrase "this relationship" (in Line 3, Para. 5) refers to the connection between_________ and the incidence of heart disease.[A] the amount offish eaten [B] regular fish-eating[ C ] the kind of fish eaten [ D ] people ofdifferent regions53. The passage is mainly about _________.[ A ] the high incidence of heart disease insome countries[ B ] the effect of fish eating on people ' s health[ C] the changes in people' s diet[D]the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures54.Why is heart disease the most dangerous killer inthe United States?[A]Because American people drink too much spirits.[B]Because there are a great number of fat people there.[ C ] The author does n ' t give a definite answer.[D]Because American people eat too much fatty fish.55.How many lives could probably be saved each year in the United States by eating fifth according to the Dutch study?[A] 550,000. [B] 275,000.LC] 110,000. [D] 852.Text 3Being assertive ( 过度自信 ) is being able to communicate with other people clearly. If you felt that you had expressed what was important to you and allowed the oilier person to respond in their own way then, regardless of the final outcome, you behaved assertively. It is important to remember thatbeing assertive refers to a way of coping withconfrontations ( 对抗 ) 。

2020 年全国公共英语等级考试PETS 三级模拟试题TextMost young people enjoy physical activities, walking,cycling, football, or mountaineering.These who have a passion 26 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 27 with astonishment. Why are menand women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by thedifference between mountaineering and other forms ofactivities 30 which men give their leisure.There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golfand football. There are, of course, rules of different kindswhich it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom fromman-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 .If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports,we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering isnot a “team work ” . However, it is only ourmisunderstanding.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which wasa temple to me then. It wasn ’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senioreditor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck withit. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered myboss’s office. Would he rage? I wonde red. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk, ” I began awkwardly.“I came to the Globe when I was twenty - four. Now I ’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I ’m resigning. ” “To another paper? ” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, butdidn ’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new mediacompany. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wantedto be directly engaged in the change. “I ’m glad for you, ”he said, quite ou t of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much ofit we can ’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world, ” he concluded. “And if it doesn ’t work out, remember, your star is always high here. ”Then I went out of his office, walking through thenewsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody—even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture ： all the financial security I hadcarefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman andpublisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into abillion- dollar property.“I’m resigning, Bill,”I said. He listened while I gave him the st ory. He wasn ’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said,“Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46.From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous_______.[A]newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47.If the writer stayed with the Globe _________.[ A] he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams.[ B] he would let his long-cherished dreams fade away.[ C ] he would never have to worry about his future life.[ D] he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions.48. The writer wanted to resign because _________.[A] he had serious trouble with his boss.[ B ] he got underpaid at his job for the Globe.[ C ] he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry.[ D ] he had found a better paid job in apublishing house.49.When the writer decided to resign the Globe wasfaced with _______.[ A ] a trouble with its staff members[ B ] a shortage of qualified reporters[ C ] an unfavorable business situation[ D ]an uncontrollable business situation50. By“：I wish I were in your shoes. ”(in the last paragraph) Bill Taylor meant that _______.[ A ] the writer was to fail.[ B] the writer was stupid[ C ] he would do the same if possible[D] he would reject the writer’s requestText 2Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up inthe morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr.Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved thateveryone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work youmay say that you ’re “hot ”. That ’s true. The time of daywhen you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comesduring the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads’ll be to such familiar monologues as ：“Get up, Peter! You latefor work again! ” The possible explanation to thetrouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peakin the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbandsand wives realize what these energy cycles mean, andwhich cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn tomake your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you ’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay uplate anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. Ifyour energy is low in the morning, but you have an importantto do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. Thiswon’t change your cycle, but you ’ll get up steam and workbetter at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51.If a person finds getting up early a problem,most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C]he is not sure when his energy is low.[D]he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52.Which of the following may lead to familyquarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D]Attempts to control the energy cycle of otherfamily members.53.If one wants to work efficiently at his low pointin the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54.You are advised to rise with a yawn andstretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B]help you to control your temper early in the day[C]enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D]keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A]Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B]Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C]Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D]Children have energy cycles, too.Text 3There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution,the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings inrural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the veryclimate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning offossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect ”—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world's average temperature. If this view iscorrect and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities suchas New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth's temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditionswill happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible) Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment causedby the“advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56.As pointed out at the beginning of the passage,people used to think that air pollution _______.[ A ] cause widespread damage in the countryside[ B ] affected the entire eastern half of the UnitedStates[ C ] had damaged effect on health[ D ] existed merely in urban and industries areas57. As to the greenhouse effect, the author __________.[ A ] share the same view with the scientist.[ B ] is uncertain of its occurrence[ C ] rejects it as being ungrounded[ D ] thinks that it will destroy the world soonbe58. The word“offset” in the second paragraph couldreplaced by _________.[ A] slip into [ B ] make up for[ C ] set up [ D ] catch up with59. It can be concluded that ____________.[ A ] raising the world's temperature only a few degreeswould not do much harm to life on earth.[ B] lowering the world's temperature merely a fewdegrees would lead major farming areas to disaster.[C]almost no temperature variations have occurredover the past decade.[D]the world's temperature will remain constant in theyears to come.60. This passage is primarily about __________.[A]the greenhouse effect ⋯⋯[ B ] the burning of fossil fuels ⋯⋯[C]the potential effect of air pollution.[ D] the likelihood of a new ice age.Part BDirections：Read the following article in which five people talk about their ideas of dieting. For questions 61 to 65 , -match name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to C ) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.AbbeyYou can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calorie charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are!MarlinI began making some dietary and lifestyles changes during my second year of college and have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don't eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer; Ican maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly.MaggieDuring my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that Iwas in good shape since that's what I weighed in college. Now that I've lost all that extra weight, I feel great! Peoplesay all the time, "Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?" and I say, "You just don't.It' s not even an option. It's not that hard once you get onit. "BelindaIf you are on a diet, you're always hungry. You can't be hungry and happy at the same time. All the horrible concoctions you eat instead of food leave you permanently dissatisfied. A complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as juicy steak. So at least three times a day you will be exposed to temptation. How miserable to watch others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! And if hunger just proves too much for you, in the end you will lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting.Then things will turn out to be even worse.WoodI went on diet when my doctor told me that my blood pressure tended to be high. Only at that time did I realizethe danger of being overweight. Since I began making dietarychanges in 1982, eating this way has become increasingly accepted.

09年PETS三级全真模拟试卷及答案1-阅读TEXT2Section ⅢReading Comprehension (40 minutes )Text 2You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn’t love you back? Or if they do say. it but you don’t feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerver racking(紧张）and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn’ t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand fast?A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal. " All. relationships go through power struggles but, he says, if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. "That feeling of ’I’ve always loved you more’may be subverted(颠覆，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges in squabbling(大声争吵). " In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational psychologist Ingrid Collins. Psychosexual therapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, the person who says ’ I love you’ first may also be the one who says ’ I’ m bored with you’ first. " Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it. "Is it said when they’ re drunk? Is it said. before their partner files off on holiday, and what it really means is ’ Please don’ t be unfaithful to me’ ? By saying ’ I love you’, they really saying’ Do you love me?’ If so, wouldn’t it just be more honest to say mat. Collins agrees that intention is everything. "It’s not what is said, but how it’ s said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker.”51. What is the main idea of this passage?[ A ] The importance of "I love you"[ B ] The meaning of "I love you"[ C ] The time of saying "I love you".[ D ] The place of saying. "I love you"52. In the first sentence the author means that[ A ] it is easy to say "I love you"[ B ] it is hard to say "I love you"[ C ] we have many troubles in our life[ D ] people usually do not know when to say "I love you"53. According to the expert, a good relationship should be[ A ] fair and equal[ B ] fair and kind[ C ] powerful and equal[ D] confident and fair54. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means[ A ] being low in spirit[ B ] having only one hand[ C ] being active[ D ] being passive55. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody say "I love you"to you?[ A ] The intention.[ B ] The place.[ C ] The time.[ D ] The determination.Text 2 参考译文你一定曾经为何时说“我爱你”而烦恼过，因为这是我们生活中的一大难题。

全国英语等级考试全真模拟卷第三级(附光盘)

全国英语等级考试全真模拟卷第三级(附光盘)全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1National English Test Level 3 - A Student's ViewWow, the National English Level Test Level 3! That sounds like a really big deal. I remember when my teacher first told our class about it. We had just finished our English lesson, and she said we would be taking this important test soon. A bunch of my classmates got really excited, but I was a little nervous. Tests can be scary, especially really important ones!My teacher could see some of us were worried, so she explained what the test was all about. She said it's a way for students like us to show how good our English skills are. The test has listening, reading, writing, and speaking sections to check all the different things we've learned in English class.The listening part sounded kind of fun. The teacher said we'd hear conversations and stories, then have to answer questions about them. In class, we always enjoyed the listening exercises, especially the funny dialogues. My best friend Lily and I would try to imitate the voices and make each other laugh.Then there's the reading section, which is about understanding passages. That doesn't sound too bad, since we read lots of stories and articles for homework anyway. Though I'm a little slower at reading than some of my classmates. I'll have to practice more.Writing is one part I'm kind of nervous about. We'll have to write a short essay on a topic they give us. Essays are hard! You have to organize all your thoughts and make sure your grammar and spelling are perfect. Miss Lee has been helping us practice timed writings though, so that should help.The speaking section might be the trickiest for me. We'll have to answer questions and describe pictures out loud. I sometimes stumble over words when I get nervous. But Miss Lee said the test instructors are really nice, so maybe that will help me relax. Plus, we've done lots of partner speaking activities to prepare.To get ready, Miss Lee had us do some practice test materials. They came with a CD too, so we could listen to the audio at home. The practice tests showed us what types of questions would be on the real test. There were multiple choice questions, fill in the blanks, and short answers. It was good practice, but some of the questions were pretty hard!A couple weeks before the test, my parents got me some other sample test books from the bookstore to work through. I spent a lot of time reviewing vocabulary, grammar points, and doing listening exercises with my headphones on. The more I practiced, the more confident I started to feel.Finally, the day of the big test came! A bunch of kids from other schools came to take it too. We all had to sit at desks spread out in the school auditorium. It was a little intimidating with so many people around. The nice test teachers passed out the test booklets and CDs, then explained very clearly how everything would work.The listening section was just as I expected - we heard conversations and stories through headphones, then had to answer comprehension questions. I missed a few, but I tried my best. The reading passages were interesting topics like animals and sports, which made them easier to understand. Phew, made it through those two sections!We took a short break before starting the writing section. I had a hard time coming up with ideas for my essay at first, but then I remembered the tips for brainstorming from class. Once I got my thoughts sorted out, the actual writing went pretty smoothly. Hopefully I organised it well enough!Then came speaking time. The teachers called students one-by-one into another room to do the speaking section. When it was my turn, I felt a little shaky but took a deep breath. The test teacher was so friendly and encouraging, which helped me relax a lot. We talked about some pictures, answered hypothetical questions, and did a role-play. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be.Phew, after the speaking part was done, the whole test was finally over! I felt so relieved, but also proud for giving it my all. It was tough, but our preparation in class with Miss Lee really paid off. I can't wait to get my results back and see how I did. Hopefully I score high enough to get that fancy certificate!I'd definitely recommend the National English Test Level 3 to other students. It's challenging for sure, but taking it was a great way to show off all the English I've learned so far. Plus, it helped me get much more confident at reading, writing, listening and speaking. Maybe I'll aim for Level 4 next year - gotta keep leveling up those English skills! If I can make it through that tough test, I'll be like a real pro. Just call me the English master!篇2My Big Day for the English Test!Hi there! My name is Emily and I'm a 5th grader. Today was a super important day because I took the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 exam! I've been studying really hard for months to get ready. My parents and teachers told me this test is a big deal and shows how good my English skills are. I was a little nervous, but also excited to show off what I've learned.The test had four sections - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. We started with the listening part first thing in the morning. The nice test proctor played audio clips from a CD and we had to mark our answers on a special bubble sheet. Some of the questions asked us to listen for specific details, while others wanted us to get the main idea. There were conversations between kids and adults as well as lectures on topics like animals and vacations. I tried my best to listen really carefully!After listening, we moved on to the reading section. This part had lots of different passages - stories, advertisements, instructions, and more. We had to read each one and then answer comprehension questions about things like the main idea, vocabulary in context, making inferences, and author's purpose. The passages covered all kinds of subjects that kids might be interested in like sports, science experiments, and school events. My favorite was the funny story about a boy and his pet frog!By the time the reading section was over, it was lunchtime. We got to go outside and run around for a bit to rest our brains. Some of my friends were feeling tired, but I had brought an energy bar that my mom packed to refuel. After our break, it was time to tackle the writing tasks.For the writing portion, we had two assignments. First, we had to read a short prompt about an everyday situation and write a response of 100-120 words giving our opinion and reasons. The prompt I got was about whether kids should have set bedtimes or be allowed to go to bed whenever they want. I wrote all about how a regular bedtime schedule helps kids get the sleep they need to stay healthy and do well at school.The second writing task was harder. We were given a topic and some guiding questions, and then had to write an essay of 200-250 words developing our ideas with examples and details. My topic was "An Activity I Enjoy," so I chose to write about my favorite hobby of playing soccer. I described the equipment and rules, explained why I like the teamwork and exercise, and gave an example of scoring an exciting goal during my last game. Organizing and developing an whole essay in English was definitely challenging, but I tried my best!Last but not least was the speaking section. One at a time, we went into a private room and spoke our responses into a recording device while the proctor gave us prompts from the test booklet. First, I had to describe a set of pictures that told a story, like making sure to hit all the key details in my narration. Then I had to listen to a prompt and give my opinion, using reasons and examples to back up what I said. Finally, I got a hypothetical situation and had to propose a solution, again supporting my ideas with clear explanations.Speaking in English without stopping to think too hard was probably the most nerve-wracking part! But I took a deep breath each time and just tried my best to respond naturally and completely. When I finally finished that last speaking task, I was so relieved and proud of myself for making it through such a long, challenging test.Overall, the whole experience of taking the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 was pretty intense! My brain definitely feels a little fried after concentrating so hard for hours. But I'm really glad I prepared as much as I did by practicing tests from previous years, working on skills with my English tutors, and staying after school for extra help. Thanks to all that hard work, Ifelt mostly confident going into each section, even if some parts were tougher than others.Now it's just a waiting game until I get my scores back in a couple months! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I did well enough to prove my English abilities and get that certificate. No matter what though, I know I grew a lot as an English learner just by taking on this big challenge. Tests may be stressful, but they help show how far you've come and what to work on next. I'm feeling inspired to keep practicing my English skills through reading, games, movies, and conversations with native speakers.Whew, what a big day! I'd better go rest up now. Tackling that huge exam honestly knocked me out. But I'm so proud of myself for persevering through all those listening, reading, writing, and speaking sections. Wish me luck on a great score! Labors Cantantas Forever! (That's "Go Songbirds!" in Latin, my school's motto.) Thanks for letting me share my testing experience!篇3National English Level Test Time!Hi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm in 5th grade. Today I want to tell you all about the National English Level Test that Ijust took. It's a really big deal test that lets you see how good your English is compared to other kids across the whole country. The version I took was the Third Level, which is the level for upper elementary students like me.First off, let me just say - PHEW! I'm so glad that test is over. It was pretty tough, not gonna lie. But I studied really hard, so I think I did ok. My mom signed me up for this special English class to get ready. We did tons of practice tests and learned all kinds of strategies. I may have gotten a little sick of English by the end, but it was worth it!Ok, so the test had four sections - Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. The Listening part had different recordings that we had to listen to very carefully and answer questions about. Some were conversations between people, while others were talks or instructions. I had to use those funny-looking headphones that go over your whole ear. That part wasn't too bad for me since I love listening to English songs, shows, and movies.Then there was the Reading section where we had different passages to read - stories, advertisements, tables, you name it! The questions asked things like what the main idea was, what certain details were, or what vocabulary words meant in context.I read a lottt during my studying, so that helped me get faster at reading in English.Writing is probably the hardest part for me. We had to write a letter and an essay responding to different prompts. It's just so much work putting all the grammar rules together while trying to make your writing flow nicely and get your point across clearly. I made sure to leave time at the end to check over my writing.Finally, there was the Speaking section which was pretty nerve-wracking if I'm being honest. You have to go one-by-one into a separate room with a recording device. The questions came through headphones and you had to speak your responses out loud to get recorded. Topics could be anything - describing a scene, stating an opinion, retelling a story. I tried to speak slowly and clearly like we practiced. Hopefully I didn't say anything too silly!The whole test took almost three hours from start to finish which felt like forever to my short student attention span. We did get a couple short breaks, thank goodness. I just tried to shake out my arms and legs when I could to stay focused. I also packed a healthy snack to nibble on during the breaks.After it was all over, I just felt relieved and proud of myself for pushing through. My teacher said she was already proud ofus all no matter what our scores end up being. She knows how hard we worked. Though I must admit, I am really hoping I did well enough to earn a certificate!The best part is, the test came with a CD full of learning games, videos, songs, you name it! I love playing the cool English games and watching the funny videos. It makes practicing English feel way more fun than just reading textbooks all the time. I really think using that CD helped prepare me.Some of my friends are hoping their scores qualify them to participate in an English summer camp where you go stay overnight and do all kinds of fun English activities. That would be so awesome! Even if I don't get to go this year, I'll just study harder for the next level test.Anyway, those are all my thoughts on this huge English test I just conquered. It was definitely challenging, but also kinda exciting getting to showcase my English skills after working so hard on them. I'm just relieved it's over for now so I can finally read my English novels for fun again instead of just studying! Fingers crossed I did well. Wish me luck!篇4The National English Test Adventure!Hey there, friends! It's me, your pal Timmy. I've got the most exciting story to share with you all today. Brace yourselves for an adventure that will take you through the thrilling world of the National English Proficiency Test!It all started one sunny morning when I arrived at school, my backpack stuffed with pencils, erasers, and a rumbling tummy (I may have skipped breakfast for an extra few minutes of video games). Mrs. Robinson, our awesome English teacher, greeted us with her usual warm smile and a surprise announcement."Class, today we'll be taking the National English Proficiency Test Simulation Paper Level 3!"A collective gasp filled the classroom. Some of my classmates looked puzzled, while others wore expressions of sheer determination. As for me, well, let's just say I was somewhere in between – a little nervous but mostly excited!Mrs. Robinson handed out the test booklets, and the adventure began. The first section was all about listening comprehension. We put on our headphones and tuned in to dialogues and stories, trying our best to answer the questions that followed. I gotta admit, some of those conversations were pretty tricky! But hey, that's half the fun, right?Next up was the reading section. We tackled passages about everything from science experiments to tales of brave explorers. I found myself completely immersed in the stories, like I was right there alongside the characters, navigating through their adventures.Then came the writing part. We had to put our creative juices to the test and pen a short story or essay. Now, I won't lie – this was the part that had me sweating a little. But with Mrs. Robinson's helpful tips and a deep breath, I let my imagination run wild!Finally, we tackled the speaking section. One by one, we stepped up to the microphone and unleashed our English speaking skills. Some of us chatted about our hobbies, while others described their favorite places or fictional characters. It was like we were putting on our own little theater performance!After what felt like an eternity (but was probably just a couple of hours), we handed in our test booklets, feeling a mix of relief and accomplishment. Mrs. Robinson congratulated us on our hard work and promised to go over the answers together in the next class.As I walked home that day, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. Sure, the National English Proficiency Test was no walk inthe park, but we had taken it head-on and given it our best shot. And you know what? That's what really matters!So, there you have it, my dear friends – the tale of my first encounter with the National English Test. It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, challenges, and triumphs. But most importantly, it was an adventure that brought our class together, pushing us to explore the depths of our English skills.Who knows what other linguistic quests await us in the future? But one thing's for sure – with determination, hard work, and a sprinkle of fun, we'll conquer them all! Stay tuned for more exciting tales from the English-learning trenches!篇5The Big English Test Adventure!Hi there! My name is Emma and I'm a fifth-grader. I just had the craziest experience with this huge English test called the National English Proficiency Test Level 3. Let me tell you all about my big adventure!It all started a few months ago when my English teacher Ms. Roberts told our class that we'd be taking this really important test. She said it would show how good our English skills were inlistening, reading, writing, and speaking. I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty nervous at first. Tests can be super scary, especially really long ones!But Ms. Roberts helped us get ready by giving us lots of practice tests and activities from this big blue book called the "National English Proficiency Test Level 3 Simulation." It had ALL sorts of listening exercises, reading passages, writing prompts, and speaking questions, just like the real test. We did practice tests what felt like a million times!My favorite sections were the listening and reading parts. The listening had these fun conversations between kids and there were always silly jokes or stories that made me laugh. The reading passages were really interesting too - they had articles about animals, different countries, hobbies, you name it! I learned so many new words and facts.I definitely struggled more with the writing and speaking sections though. For the writing, we had to write letters, essays, and all sorts of paragraphs. Making sure I used proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation was hard. Speaking out loud was even harder for me because I'm pretty shy. But Ms. Roberts had us practice giving speeches and having conversations until I got more comfortable.Finally, test day arrived! I was pretty nervous waiting in line, clutching my pencil case and my lucky teddy bear. But when I sat down and got my test booklet, I told myself "You got this, Emma!" because I had practiced so much.The listening section went by super fast. The conversations and stories were just like the practice ones, so I didn't get too flustered. Same with the reading - I kept reminding myself to read carefully and double check if I was unsure of an answer.Writing was still hard, but I took my time and reread the questions over and over. I made sure to plan out my essays and letters first before writing them out. Ms. Roberts always said the brainstorming step was just as important as the writing part.When it was time for speaking, I did get a little sweaty! But I looked at the friendly test grader, took a deep breath, and just pretended I was talking to my stuffed animals at home. I stated my answers clearly and threw in some of those transition words and idioms we had practiced.After what felt like AGES, the test was finally over! I was so tired but really proud that I had given it my all. While I waited for my results, I worked on even more practice tests from the Simulation book and its CD of audio files. I wanted to be absolutely ready in case I needed to take any sections again.A few weeks later, the scores came in the mail. I had passed all four sections!! I was overjoyed and gave the biggest hug to Ms. Roberts and my parents. All that hard work and practice from the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 Simulation had really paid off. The test may have been hard, but it was also an awesome, rewarding experience!So to all my fellow test takers out there - study hard, practice tons, and don't be nervous! If you prepare well with materials like the Simulation tests, you'll do wonderfully. Just think of it as one big, exciting English adventure! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go celebrate with some ice cream. Testing is tough work!篇6Hi there! I'm Sam, a 5th grade student, and I want to tell you about this really cool English test I took recently called the National English Proficiency Test Level 3. It was kind of like a big exam, but it was actually really fun!First off, we had to buy this big book and CD to prepare for the test. The book was filled with all kinds of practice questions and exercises to get us ready. There were reading passages, grammar drills, listening exercises, and even speaking practice. We used the CD to listen to the audio parts at home. My favoritesections were the dialogues – they were like little stories of kids my age talking about everyday things like school, friends, and hobbies.When the test day arrived, I was a tiny bit nervous, but mostly excited! We had to go to a special testing center with lots of other students. First up was the listening section. We put on headphones and listened to conversations, stories, and instructions. Then we had to answer multiple choice questions about what we heard. It was kind of challenging having to listen so carefully, but also pretty engaging with all the different voices and situations.After listening, we moved right into the reading part. There were passages about topics like science, narratives, and school life. The passages weren't too long, but there were a bunch of questions following each one that really made you think deeply about whatyou read. You had to identify main ideas, make inferences, figure out vocabulary from context, and more. It was a good mental workout!Then came the grammar and writing sections. These involved things like filling in blanks, rewriting sentences, and short answer writing. I'm not gonna lie - the grammar questions were pretty tough! You really had to know your verb tenses,sentence structures, and the nitty gritty details. The writing prompts weren't too bad though. We had to write a paragraph or two about common topics like our hobbies and experiences.Last but not least was the speaking section. We wentone-by-one into a room and spoke into a recorder. The tasks included introducing ourselves, describing pictures, androle-playing conversations. It felt a little weird talking to a machine at first, but I tried to just imagine I was chatting with a friend and it went smoothly.After almost four hours of awesomely exhausting English skills, the test was finally over! A few weeks later, I received my score report and...I passed! I earned a nifty certificate too. While the exam wasn't easy, I actually had a great time putting my English abilities to the test in all areas like listening, reading, writing, speaking, and even my grammar ninja skills. It felt like such an accomplishment.To anyone thinking of taking this test, I'd say go for it! It's challenging for sure, but also an amazing way to practice and showcase your practical English communication skills. Just study hard with those practice materials, don't stress too much, and most importantly - have fun with the language. Who knows, youmight just earn an English level up like I did! Let me know if you have any other questions!。

It wasn’t easy getti ng hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a life- time of security if I stuck with it. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s of- r ice. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. "Matt, we have to have a talk." I be.- ga n awkwardly. "I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’ m forty. There’ s a lot I want t o do in life. I’m resigning. " "To another paper?" he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn ’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to. start a new media company. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly en-gaged i n the change. "I’ m glad for you," he said, quite out of my expectation. "I just came froma board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we c an deal with. But much of it we can’ t," he went on. "I wish you all the luck in the world," he con- cluded. "And if it doesn’ t work out, remember, your star is always high here. "Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody--even though I’ d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all th e financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turn ed the Globe into a billion-dollar property. "I’ m resigning, Bill," I said. He listened while I gave h im the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said, "Golly, I wish I w ere in your shoes. "46. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous[ A ] newspaper[ B ] magazine[ C ] temple[ D ] church47.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1Bum rate is the speed at which a startup business consumes money. My rate would be $ 50,000 a month when my new media company started. So, I began looking around for individuals who would be my first investors. “Angel money” it was called. But when I reviewed my list of acquaintances to find those who might be able to help, I found the number got small.With no other choices, I began meeting with the venture-capital companies. But I was warned they took a huge share of your company for the money they put in. And if you struggled, they could drop you cold.As I was searching for “angel money”,I started to build a team who trusted me even though I didn’t have money for paychecks yet.Bill Becker was an expert in computer programming and image processing at a very famous Media Lab at M. I.T. With his arrival, my company suddenly had a major technology “guy” in-house.Katherine Henderson, a filmmaker and a former real-estate dealer, joined us as our director of market research. Steve White came on as operating officer. He had worked for the developer of a home-finance software, Quicken. We grabbed him.We had some really good people, but we still didn’t have enough money. One night, my neighbor, Louise Johnson, came for a visit. She and I were only nodding acquaintances, but her boys and ours were constant companions. She ran a very good business at the time.Louise was brilliant and missednothing. She had been watching my progress closely. She knew I was dying for money and I had prospects but could offer no guarantees of success.She told me that her attorney had talked to mine and the terms had been agreed upon. She handed me an envelope. Inside was a check for $ 500,000.I almost fell down. I heard her voice as if from heaven.“I have confidence in your plan,” she said. “You’ 11 do well. You’re going to work hard for it, but it’ s satisfying when you build your own company.”Who would have thought I’d find an angel so close to home? There were no words sufficient for the moment. We just said good night. She left and I just stood there, completely humbled and completely committed.46. For a newly-established business, bum rate refers to___________.[ A ] the salary it pays to its staff[ B ] the interest it pays to the bank[ C ] the way in which it raises capital[ D ] the speed at which it spends money47. By "Angel money", the author refers to__________.[ A ] the money borrowed from banks[ B ] the money spent to promote sales[ C ] the money raised from close friends[ D ] the money needed to start a business48. To get help from a venture-capital company, you may have to__________.[ A ] put up with unfair terms[ B ] change your business line[ C ] enlarge your business scope[ D ] let them operate your business49. The author easily built a team for his company because__________.[ A ] they were underpaid at theirprevious jobs[ B ] they were turned down by other companies[ C ] they were confident of the author and his business[ D ] they were satisfied with the salaries in his company50. Louise decided to lend money to the author because__________.[ A ] she wanted to join his company[ B ] she knew he would build a team[ C ] she knew his plan would succeed[ D ] she wanted to help promote his salesText 2Nearly all “speed reading” courses have a “pacing” element--some timing device which lets the student know how many words a minute he is reading. You can do this simply by looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes and noting down the page number you have reached. Check theaverage number of words per page for the particular book you are reading. How do you know when 5 minutes has passed on your watch if you are busy reading the book? Well, this is difficult at first. A friend can help by timing you over a set period, or you can read within hearing distance of a pub-lic clock which strikes the quarter hours. Pace yourself every three or four days, always with the same kind of easy, general interest books. You should soon notice your accustomed w. p.m. rate creeping up.Obviously there is little point in increasing your w. p. m. rate if you do not understand what you are reading. When you are consciously trying to increase your reading speed, stop after every chapter ( if you are reading a novel) or every section or group of ten or twelve pages ( if it is a text-book) and ask yourself a few questions about what you have been reading. If youfind you have lost the thread of the story, or you cannot remember clearly the details of what was said, reread the section or chapter.You can also try “lightning speed” exercise from time to time. Take four or five pages of the general interest book you happen to be reading and read them as fast as you possibly can. Do not bother about whether you understand or not. Now go back and read them at what you feel to be your "normal" w. p. m. rate, the rate at which you can comfortably understand. After a ‘lightning speed’ reading through (probably 600 w. p. m. ) you will usually find that your “normal” speed has increased-perhaps. by as much as 50-100 w. p.m. This is the technique sportsmen use when they usually run further in training than they will have to on the day of the big race.51. According to the passage, a “pacing” device_________.[ A ]is used to time student’ s reading speed[ B ]is. not used in most, speed reading courses[ C ] is used as .an aid to vocabulary learning[ D ] should be used whenever we read alone52. In speed reading, looking at your watch every 5 or 10 minutes_________.[ A ] avoids the need for reading faster[ B ] is not the same as pacing[ C ] may seem unworkable at first[ D ] helps you to remember your page number53. When you are reading a novel, you should check your understanding of the content after_______.[ A ] every chapter[ B ] every section[ C ] every four or five pages[ D ] every ten or twelve pages54. The purpose of the “lightningspeed” exercise is to_________.[ A ] increase your speed by scanning the text first[ B ] test your maximum reading speed[ C ] help you understand more of the content of the book[ D ] enable you to win reading races against your friends55. The best title for this passage wouldbe_________.[ A ] Hints for Successful Reading[ B ] Hints for Speed Reading[ C ] Effective Reading[ D ] Lightning Speed ExercisesText 3There is one difference between the sexes on which virtually every expert and study agree: men are more aggressive than women. It shows up in 2-year-olds. It continues through school days and persists into adulthood. It is even constant acrosscultures. And there is little doubt that it is rooted in biology in the male sex hormone testosterone.If there’s a feminine trait that’s the counterpart of male aggressiveness, it’s what social scien-tists awkwardly refer to as "nurturance". Feminists have argued that the nurturing nature of women is not biological in origin, but rather has been drummed into women by a society that wanted to keep them in the home. But the signs that it is at least partly inborn are too numerous to ignore. Just as tiny infant girls respond more readily to human faces, female toddlers learn much faster than males how to pick up nonverbal cues from others. And grown women are far more adept than men at interpreting facial expressions: A recent study by University of Pennsylvania brain researcher Ru-ben Gur showed that they easily read emotions such as anger, sadness and fear. The only suche-motion men could pick up was disgust.What difference do such differences make in the real world? Among other things, women appear to be somewhat less competitive--or at least competitive in different ways--than men. At the Harvard Law School, for instance, female students enter with credentials just as outstanding as those of their male peers. But they don’ t qualify for the prestigious Law Review in proportionate numbers, a fact some school officials attribute to women’ s discomfort in the incredibly competitive atmosphere.Students of management styles have found fewer differences than they expected between men and women who reach leadership positions, perhaps because many successful women deliberately imitate masculine ways. But an analysis by Purdue social psychologist Alice Eagly of 166 studies of leadership style did find one consistent difference: Men tend to be more“autocratic”-making decisions on their own--while women tend to consult colleagues and subordinates more often. Studies of behavior in small groups turn up even more differences. Men will typically domi-nate the discussion, says University of Toronto psychologist Kenneth Dion, spending more time talking and less time listening.56. The passage mainly discusses__________.[ A ] how sex differences are demonstrated in social relations[ B ] how hormone determines sex differences[ C ] why there are differences between males and females[ D ] why men and women have different social roles57. Which of the following is true of wome n’s nurturing nature according to the passage?[ A ] It is not inborn in any sense.[ B ] It is inspired by women’ s families.[ C ] It is caused by social prejudice.[ D ] It is partly biological in origin.58. The Harvard Law School example in paragraph 3 suggests that_________.[ A ] women are not as competitive as men[ B ] law is not the fight profession for women[ C ] women are as excellent as men when they are young[ D ] academic credentials are disproportionate to performance59. Which of the following statement is tree according to paragraph 4?[ A ] Men leaders should consult colleagues and subordinates more often.[ B ] Female leaders’ success is due to their imitating male leaders.[ C ] Men and women are different in their leadership style.[ D ] Decisiveness is an important quality for a successful politician.60. It can be inferred from the passage that the writer_________.[ A ] denies the difference sexes make in real life[ B ] is prejudiced against men[ C ] discourages women to be competitive[ D ] treats sex difference objectivelyPart BDirections:Read the texts from an article in which five people talked about energy and making use of it. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET 1.Jackson:Viewed from a scientist’s standpoint, all of the energy contained in fuel either now or in the future becomes heat. Some ofthe heat is used directly or produces useful work. The rest is lost or rejected. That is to say, it is radiated into the atmosphere from the engines, motors, furnaces, power lines, television sets, boilers and all the other energy-consuming machinery that makes our wheels go around.Browning:It is necessary to improve the efficiency with. which we use energy in order to do more work. But improvement cannot come overnight, and there are limits beyond which not even science can help. According to the Center for Strategic and International studies, about three quarters of the energy we use to move things, including ourselves, accomplishes no useful work.Jeffrey:In terms of efficiency, buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation may be using en-ergy more efficiently thanprivate automobiles. Unless private automobiles can operate at near capacity, their overall efficiency is poor. For example, an urban bus carrying 36 passengers may achieve an efficiency of around 120 passenger-miles per gallon of gasoline. But buses are not al-ways fully loaded, and sometimes they carry no passengers at all.Vandenberg:It is true that buses can sometimes run without passengers. City trains seem to be very effi-cient, but they suffer the same shortcomings as buses and cost more. Except for rush hours, com-muter trains seldom run at full capacity. This wastes even more energy and is more than the management can afford. As a result, commuter trains are truly practical only in places where there are a lot of people.Nathan:For some people, mass transportation may serve their needs. For others, acombination of mass transportation and private transportation may be preferable. Better design and wise use of both mass transportation systems and private vehicles will play an important part in helping us make full-er use of energy for transportation.Now match each of the persons (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61. Jackson [ A ] City trains and buses have different faults to overcome.62. Browning [ B ] The efficiency of the city train depends on the size of population.63. Jeffrey [ C ] Public transportation is usually more energy-efficient.64. Vandenberg [ D ] Private cars usually run at full capacity.65. Nathan [ E ] No fuel energy is fully used.[ F ] A combined means of transportcan help increase energy efficiency.[ G ] Problems of energy loss can never be completely solved.SECTION IV Writing(40 minutes)Directions:You should write your responses to both Part A and Part B of this section on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66. You have read the job advertisement below in a newspaper and you want to apply for the job. Write a letter of application to the manager of the company, Mr. Meed, giving all the necessary personal information. You should write approximately 100 words.Do not sign your own name at the end of your le tter. Use “Wang Lin” instead. You do not need to write the address.Part B67. Here is a picture of a traffic accident caused by a man crossing the street in a hurry.Write an essay of approximately 120 words describing the accident and giving your comment on it.THIS IS THE END OF THE TEST.第一部分听力1～25略第二部分英语知识运用参考译文结婚二十多年后，一个丈夫可能依然不能理解她的妻子. 她怎么能从来不会语塞呢?她是如何记得数年前度假时遇到的夫妻的名字的?现在我们知道该怎么告诉她了：那是因为她的大脑.尽管情绪和行为上的差异明显有文化上的原因，但最近有一项重大突破性的研究表明男女间令人迷惑的差异可能源于大脑. 男性和女性的大脑大部分都一样，可是她们大脑的大小、结构和观察力绝对不一样.大致上说，女人的大脑，就像她们的身体一样，比男人的大脑小10％-15％．因此她们大脑里用于语言的区域里脑细胞要比男人的密集.女孩子一般说话比较早，读书比较快. 原因可能在于女性在阅读的时候左右脑都用上了. 相反，男人在阅读的时候只用左脑.在任何年龄女人的记忆力都比男人好. 她们将名字与人物对应起来的能力比男人强，而且她们记清单的能力也比男人强. 人们所记的最清楚的事件是与情感联系在一起的. 因为女人用产生情绪的右脑比男人用的多，因此她们会自动记忆。

But they also 27 beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 28 . The word geography 29 from two Greek words: ge，the Greek word for "earth" and graphein, 30 . means "to write". The English word geography means "to describe the earth". 31 geography books focus on a small area 32 a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an 33 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another 34 to divide the study of 35 is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 36 starts with human beings and 37 how human beings and their environment act 38 each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, 39 branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described 40 one who observes, records, and explains the 41 between places. If all places 42 alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, 43 no two places are exactly the same. Geography, 44 , is a point of view, a special way of 45 at places. 26.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark four answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets. Text I No one knows exactly how many disabled (残废的) people there are in the world, but estimates suggest the figure is over 450 million. The number of disabled people in India alone is probably more than double the total population of Canada. In the United Kingdom, about one in ten people have some disability. Disability is not just something that happens to other people. As we get older, many of us will become less mobile ( 可动的) , hard of hearing or have failing eyesight. Disablement can take many forms and occur at any time of life. Some people are born with disabilities. Many others become disabled as they get older. There are many progressive disabling diseases. The longer time goes on, the worse they become. Some people are disabled in accidents. Many others may have a period of disability in the form of a mental illness. All are affected by people ' s attitude towards them. Disabled people face many physical barriers. Next time you go shopping or to work or visit friends, imagine how you would manage if you could not get up steps, or on to buses and trains. How would you cope if you could not see where you were going or could not hear the traffic? But there are other barriers: prejudice can be even harder to break down and ignorance inevitably represents by far the greatest barrier of all. It is almost impossible for the able-bodied to fully appreciate what the severely disabled go through, so it is important to draw attention to these barriers and show that it is the individual person and their ability, not their disability, which counts. 46. The first paragraph points out that _________. { A J it is possible to get an exact figure of the world ' s disabled people [ B ] there are many disabled people in the world [ C ] the number of disabled people in India is the greatest [ D ] India has not much more disabled people than Canada 47. The key word in Paragraph 4 is _________. [ A ] barriers [ B ] ignorance [C] disability [D] prejudice 48. The last word of the passage "counts" most probably means _________. [A] "is most important" [B] "is included" [C] "is considered" [D] "is numbered" 49. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? [A] There are about 10 percent disabled persons in the UK. [ B ] The whole society should pay due attention to the barriers faced by the disabled people. [ C ] Even the able-bodied may lose some of their body functions when they get older. [D] There still exists prejudice against the disabled which results mainly from ignorance. 50. It can be concluded from the passage that _____ __. [A] we should try our best to prevent disablement [ B] we must take a proper attitude towards the disabled [C] the able-bodied people will never fully understand the disabled [D] both physical and mental barriers are hard to break down -- Text 2 A small piece of fish each day may keep the heart doctor away. That' s the finding of an extensive study of Dutch men in which deaths from heart disease were more than 50 percent lower among those who consumed at least an ounce of salt water fish per day than those who never ate fish. The Dutch research is one of three human studies that give strong scientific backing to the longheld belief that eating fish can provide health benefits, particularly to the heart. Heart disease is the nuinber-one killer in the United States, with more than 550,000 deaths oc- curring from heart attacks each year. But researchers previously have noticed that the incidence ( 发生率) of heart disease is lower in cultures that consume more fish than Americans do. There are fewer heart disease deaths, for example, among the Eskimos of Greenland, who consume about 14 ounces of fish a day, and among the Japanese, whose daily fish consumption averages more than 3 ounces. For 20 years, the Dutch study followed 852 middle-aged men, 20 percent of whom ate no fish. At the start of the study, the average fish consumption was about two-thirds of an ounce each day with more men eating lean (瘦的) fish than fatty fish. During the next two decades, 78 of the men died from heart disease. The fewest deaths were among the group who regularly ate fish, even at levels far lower than those of the Japanese or Eskimos. This relationship was true regardless of other factors such as age, high blood pressure, or blood cholesterol ( 胆固醇) levels.51. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage? [A] The Dutch research has proved that eating fish can help to prevent heart disease. [ B] Heart doctors won't call your house so long as you keep eating fish each day. [C] Among all the diseases heart disease is the most dangerous in America. [D] There is a low incidence of heart disease in such countries as Japan and Greenland. 52. The phrase "this relationship" (in Line 3, Para. 5) refers to the connection between _________ and the incidence of heart disease. [A] the amount offish eaten [B] regular fish-eating [ C ] the kind of fish eaten [ D ] people of different regions 53. The passage is mainly about _________. [ A ] the high incidence of heart disease in some countries [ B ] the effect of fish eating on people ' s health [ C] the changes in people' s diet [D] the daily fish consumption of people in different cultures 54. Why is heart disease the most dangerous killer in the United States? [A] Because American people drink too much spirits. [B] Because there are a great number of fat people there. [ C ] The author does n ' t give a definite answer. [D] Because American people eat too much fatty fish. 55. How many lives could probably be saved each year in the United States by eating fifth according to the Dutch study? [A] 550,000. [B] 275,000. LC] 110,000. [D] 852. Text 3 Being assertive ( 过分自信) is being able to communicate with other people clearly. If you felt that you had expressed what was important to you and allowed the oilier person to respond in their own way then, regardless of the final outcome, you behaved assertively. It is important to rememberthat being assertive refers to a way of coping with confrontations ( 对抗)。
