Passage OneAll the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was wha t the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: “Remember, onc e a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lu cky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advis e her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the mana ge r of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lu cky Day. Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to h er car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She dashed back to t he supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, sh e saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. “Madam,” he said, holdin g out his hand, “I want to con gratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.The housewives learnt about the of free goods C .A.on TVB. from the managerC. at the supermarketD. from the newspaper62.Mrs. Edwards C .A.is always very luckyB. had no friendsC. hoped to get free shoppingD. gets disappointed easily63.Mrs. Edwards’s husband tried to D .A.make her unhappyB. cheer her upC. buy things with herD. stop her buying things64.Mrs. Edwards went back to the supermarket quickly because she had toA .A.buy another thingB. talk to the managerC. pay for her shoppingD. find her shopping65.Mrs. Edwards must have been D .A.pleasedB. delightedC. proudD. disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East. Tennessee is a body of wate r known as the Lost Sea. It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake. The Lost Se a is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation. The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening o n the side of the mountain. Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a ro om called “The Council Room,” many Indian artisfacts have been found. Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake some where in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905. In that year, a thirteen- year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground. He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed bo ats powered by electric motors. More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found. Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.The Lost Sea is unique because it is B .A.part of a historical cave systemB.the biggest underground lake in the worldC.listed in the Guinness Book of World RecordsD.the largest body of water in Tennessee67.The Craighead Caverns have been known B .A.through historyB. since the time of the Indian nationsC. since 1905D. since divers explored them68.Who located the Lost Sea in recent times? CA.The Cherokee Indians.B. Tourists.C. Ben Sands.D. Scientists.69.What was found in “The Council Room”? DA.A small natural opening.B. A large cave.C. Another series of rooms.D. Many old Indian objects.70.It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presentlyserve as C .A.an underground testing siteB. an Indian meeting groundC. a tourist attractionD. a motor boat race course Passage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfa st is one life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, 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 all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Betwe en 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33percent.For those who feel pain of 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 d oes not affect performance,” said Arrold E. Bender, former professor of the nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London, “nor does giving peopl e breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is su rprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr. Erresto at the University of Texas, “i s poor”.71.The latest year for which figures could be obtained is D .A.the year the author wrote the articleB. 1977C. any year between 1997 and 1983D. 198372.For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that B .A.several studies have been done in the past few yearsB.the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC.adults have especially made studies in this fieldD.eating little in the morning is good for health73.“…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”means C .A.anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB.not giving people breakfast improve performanceC.having breakfast does not improve performance, eitherD.people having breakfast do improve their performance74.The word “literature” in the last sen tence refers to B .A.stories, poems, plays, etc.B. written works on a particular subjectC. any printed materialD. the modern literature of America75.What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that C .A.breakfast does not affect performanceB.Dr. Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higherlearningC.not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenD.Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London Passage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning. The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university. These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree. Some students att end a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two yearsbefore entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one. Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade poin t average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school. Privat e schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive. Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earni ng scholarships. Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or do ctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school. Occupations in certain fields such as l aw or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs. Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time. Often some will take five or m ore years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands o n their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s tim e, most still enjoy social activities. Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular. However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular a ctivity.76.College education is A in America.A.quite commonB. very rareC. something difficultD. almost impossible77.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.B .A.entrance examinationsB. taking part in many activitiesC. GPAD. college prep classes78.How can poor students attend private schools? D .A.Only by working at part-time jobs.B.Only by working at full-time jobs.C.Only by earning scholarships.D.All of above.79.The American college students like to A most of all.A.discuss problems on philosophyB.play ballsC.earn enough moneyD.go to the cinemas or theatres80.The best title for this passage is B .A.Part-time jobsB. American collegeC. Popular activityD. A new systemⅤ. Writing (20 points)Directions:For this part, you are allowed 20 minutes to write a composition of about 80 words according to the following topic.金钱是一切吗? (Is Money Everything?)Ⅴ. WritingIs Money Everything?I don’t think money is everything, but we can’t do without it. Fox example, money can’t buy us happiness and a good education. And for another example, money can’t buy us good health and a long life. But we can not live without money. We need it for our daily necessities such as food, clothes and transpor tation. What’s more, we need it to live a better life. In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages.。

这个音标表示了一个元音和两个辅音字母的组合。
我们可以看到,第一个和最后一个音标都是元音[æ],它位于辅音 [m] 的中间。
所以,正确的发音应该是[ælm] 或[ælmər],因为 [ər] 通常用来表示单词结尾时的清晰度或者加强单词的重音。

corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneAll the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who didnot have to pay for her shopping.For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised.It said: “Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods.This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs.Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer.Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping.The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need.Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed.She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: “Madam, this is Your Lucky Day.Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea.She dashed back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk.As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her.“Madam,”he said, holding out his hand, “I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and everything you have in your basket is free!”61.The housewives learnt about the of free goods _______.A.on TVB.from the managerC.at the supermarketD.from the newspaper62.Mrs.Edwards ________.A.is always very luckyB.had no friendsC.hoped to get free shoppingD.gets disappointed easily63.Mrs.Edwards’s husband tried to ________.A.make her unhappyB.cheer her

shopping65.Mrs.Edwards must have been ________.A.pleasedB.delightedC.proudD.disappointedPassage TwoDeep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East.Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea.It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake.The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation.The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain.Approximately one mile from the entrance, in a room called “The Council Room,”many Indian artisfacts have been found.Some of the items discovered include pottery, arrowheads, weapons, and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave, but it was not discovered until 1905.In that year, a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground.He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors.More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found.Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea, the full extent of it is still unknown.66.The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the worldlisted in the Guinness Book of World Recordsthe largest body of water in Tennessee67.The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A.through historyB.since the time of the Indian nationsC.since 1905D.since divers explored them68.Who located the Lost Sea in recent times?A.The Cherokee Indians.B.Tourists.C.Ben Sands.D.Scientists.69.What was found in “The Council Room”?A.A small natural opening.B.A large cave.C.Another series of rooms.D.Many old Indian objects.70.It can be inferred from the passage that the Craighead Caverns presently serve as ____.A.an underground testing siteB.an Indian meeting groundC.a tourist attractionD.a motor boat race coursePassage ThreeGenerations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials.Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, and told again, 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 all the efforts, they still take no breakfast.Between 1977 and 1983, the latest year for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast, increased by 33 percent.For those who feel pain of 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 affect performance,”said Arrold E.Bender, former professor of the 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 ofthe recent work involves children, not adults, “The literature”, says one researcher, Dr.Erresto at the University of Texas, “is poor”.71.The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A.the year the author wrote the articleB.1977C.any year between 1997 and 1983D.198372.For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few yearsthe omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s healthadults have especially made studies in this fieldeating little in the morning is good for health73.“…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performancenot giving people breakfast improve performancehaving breakfast does not improve performance, eitherpeople having breakfast do improve their performance74.The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to _______.A.stories, poems, plays, etc.B.written works on a particular subjectC.any printed materialD.the modern literature of America75.What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performanceDr.Erresto is engaged in research work at an institution of higher learningnot eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenProfessor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in LondonPassage FourAbout 35% of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) or Bachelor Science (B.S.) degree.Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program) for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生) or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA), as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.Poorer students can sometimes attend, however, by earning scholarships.Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate) school.Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high, most students work at part-time jobs.Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time.Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money / job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time, most still enjoy social activities.Sports, dances, clubs, movies, and plays are all very popular.However, gathering together for long, philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.76.College education is _______ in America.A.quite commonB.very rareC.something difficultD.almost impossible77.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A.entrance examinationsB.taking part in many activitiesC.GPAD.college prep classes78.How can poor students attend private schools?A.Only by working at part-time jobs.B.Only by working at full-time jobs.C.Only by earning scholarships.D.All of above.79.The American college students like to _______ most of all.A.discuss problems on philosophyB.play ballsC.earn enough moneyD.go to the cinemas or theatres80.The best title for this passage is _______.A.Part-time jobsB.American collegeC.Popular activityD.A

transportation.What’s more, we need it to live a better life.In short, we should learn the value of money and make the most of its advantages.。

2024年成人高考成考英语(高起本)模拟试题与参考答案一、语音知识(本大题有5小题,每小题2分,共10分)1、Listen to the following words and choose the one whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the others:A. dropB. sportC. workD. wordAnswer: CExplanation: In this option, the underlined part is pronounced /ɜːr/, while in the other options, it is pronounced /ɔː/ or /ɑː/ depending on the context.2、Choose the word whose underlined part has a different pronunciation from the others:A. withB. thickC. richD. witherAnswer: DExplanation: The underlined part in “thick” and “rich” is pronounced /ɪ/, while in “with” and “wither,” it is pronounced /ɪ/. The difference lies in the “th” in “wither,” which changes the pronunciation to /iː/.3、Listen to the following sentences and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the rest:A. catB. canC. carD. cartAnswer: B (can)Explanation: The other words are all pronounced with the “k” sound at the beginning. The word “can” has the “k” sound before the “an” vowel combination, but it’s not pronounced as a separate “k” sound.4、Choose the sentence that contains an example of the schwa sound:A. She has a cat.B. It is a small cat.C. The cat is beautiful.D. With a cat in the room.Answer: B (It is a small cat)Explanation: The schwa sound is represented by the symbol əand is a weak vowel sound. In option B, the word “is” is pronounced with a schwa sound, which is characteristic of the schwa. The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识(本大题有15小题,每小题2分,共30分)1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析:本题考查时态。

AThe sun's heat warms the air and makes it move. This movement is called wind. Different parts of the Earth receive different amounts of heat. Near the equator (赤道) , the sun is overhead and heats the Earth intensely (强烈). Nearer the poles, the sun's rays strike the Earth at a low angle so the heat is not so intense.A lot of the earth's heat is reflected back into spaces, by the atmosphere, clouds, dust in the air and by water, snow and ice. So some parts of the Earth are warm and some are cold. Warm air tends to rise and creates areas of high pressure. As warm air rises, cold air flows in and replaces it. The greater the pressure difference is, the stronger the wind blows.36. A strong wind is usually caused by a difference in__________.A. heatB. pressureC. atmosphereD. air37. Some parts of the Earth are warm and some are cold because__________.A. a lot of the heat is reflectedB. there are clouds and dust in the airC. different parts of the Earth receive and reflect different amounts of heatD. different parts of the Earth have different sources of heat38. The best title of the article is__________.A. The Sun's HeatB. PressureC. AtmosphereD. Why Do Winds BlowBOur eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would rather eat sweets and ice-cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice-cream are not bad if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲).It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is a sign that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a man was telling the truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not eat the bread, it showed that he was telling lies. Although this seems very strange and rather foolish, it is indeed a very good way of finding out the fact. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in eating anything dry. Because he is worrying, he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.39. We must have good eating habits because__________.A. we want to eat moreB. we want to enjoy our mealsC. we want to be healthyD. we want to grow up quickly40. It is good to eat sweets and ice-cream__________.A. when we are hungryB. when we want toC. at the end of a mealD. before the meal41. We'd better have our meals__________.A. at the same time each dayB. when our work is overC. when the meal is still hotD. when every one of the family is home42. A man who is worrying__________.A. has a better appetiteB. likes to tell liesC. likes to eat ice-creamD. has a poor appetiteCThere once was a village that had among its people a very wise old man. The villagers trusted this man to provide them with answers to their questions.One day, a farmer from the village went to the wise man and said," My ox has died and I have no animal to help me plough my field! Isn't this the worst thing that could have possibly happened?" The wise old man replied, "Maybe so, maybe not. " The man thought the wise man had gone mad.The very next day, however, a strong, young horse was seen near the man's farm. The man caught the horse. How happy the farmer was! He went back to the wise man to apologize. "You were right, wise man. Losing my ox wasn't the worst thing that could have happened. I never would have caught my new horse if that had not happened. This is the best thing that could have happened. " The wise man replied once again, "Maybe so, maybe not. " The farmer thought surely the wise man had gone mad now.A few days later the farmer's son was thrown off the horse when riding it. He broke his leg and would not be able to help with the crop. Once again, the farmer went to the wise man, "You were right again. Catching my horse was not a good thing. My son is injured. This time I'm sure that this is the worst thing that could have possibly happened. " But, just as he had done before, the wise man replied once again, "Maybe so, maybe not. " The farmer stormed back to the village.The next day soldiers arrived to take every able-bodied man to the war that had just broken out.The farmer's son was the only young man in the village who didn't have to go. He would live, while the others would surely die.Remember: maybe so, maybe not.43. What happened to the wise man one day?A. His ox had died.B. He had no animal to help plough his field.C. He had gone mad.D. A farmer came to say the worse thing had happened.44. What happened to the farmer the next day?A. A strong, young horse was seen on his farm.B. He caught a strong, young horse near his farm.C. The best thing happened to him.D. The worst thing happened to him.45. What happened to the farmer's son a few days later?A.
