2007年11月北京成人英语三级考试A卷试题及答案一阅读理解Passage 1Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (79)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Word makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(80)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1. The underlined word “average” in Paragraph I means ______. CA. healthyB. lazyC. ordinaryD. poor2. The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that ______. CA.housewives are poorer than career womenB.housewives have more children than career womenC.housewives have less chance to communicate with othersD.housewives eat less food than career women3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2? DA.Busy people have nothing to do at home.B.High achievers don’t care about their families.C.There is no friendship and warmth at home.D. A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.4. We can infer from the passage that those who do not work _____. AA.are likely to live a shorter lifeB.will lose everything at homeC.can live as long as those who workD.have more time to make new friends5. The best title for this passage may be _____. BA.People Should Find a JobB.Working Hard Is Good for HealthC.People Should Make More Friends by WorkD.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of EverythingPassage 2A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. (78) In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political”artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its abuse (滥用) of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church walls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues (雕像) are not holy.6. More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because ___. CA. art history shows us nothing but the political valuesB. general history only focuses on politicsC. art history gives us an insight (洞察力) into the essential qualities of a time and a placeD. general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psychology7. Art is subjective in that _____. AA. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through itB. it only reflects people’s anger or sadness about social problemsC. it can easily arouse people’s anger about their governmentD. artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society8. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? CA. In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B. Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808C. In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other building.D. For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses _____. BA. the development of art historyB. he difference between general history and art historyC. what we can learn from artD. the influence of artists on art history10. It can be concluded from the passage that _____. CA. Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in their paintingsB. it is more difficult to study art history than general historyC. a history teacher must be quite objectiveD. artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their political beliefsPassage 3Blind people can “see” things by using other parts of their bodies. This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color. If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously(无意识地)。

Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest survive. Even if global warning were to right now; scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem; the reefs may be headed for total extinction灭绝.78 The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “the rain forests of the sea"; because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea life. In addition; the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local economies as well; since the reefs attract tourists; the fishing industry; and other businesses; bringing in billions of dolllars.79Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degrees can force the corals to drive out the algae水藻. Then the corals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can recover from short-term bleaching; but long-term bleaching can cause permanent damage. In 1998; when sea surface temperatures were the highestin recorded history; coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated that even under the best of conditions; many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.Although reefs face other threats from pollution; industrial activities; and overfishing; it is global climate change that most concerns scientists.

But nowhere in history have students banned禁止bottled water. Until nowThe bottled water ban; which Parted on just a few campuses; has now spread nationwide to more than 20 universities. The colleges have cither completely banned the use of plastic bottles altogether; or some have taken a more limited approach with partial bans.Many people believe that producing and bottled water wastes money and harms the environment. They say that bottled water is unnecessary because public water supplies in the U.S. arc among the best in the world. Water fountains and reusable bottles with easy access获取to filling stations are a better choice.An organization called Ban the Bottle raises awareness about the economic and environmental costs of using plastic bottles. The group claims that eight glasses of water a day costs each person 49 cents annually; while drinking from plastic containers costs $I;400 per year. Plastic bottles contain antimony—a chemical that in low doses causesdepression; but in large doses can even lead to death.The controversy over bottled or tap is not limited to the students and college administrations.

主要介绍工作有益于人的身心健康。

第一段通过科学家的结论以及相关研究数据，引出工作有益于身体健康这一观点。

第二、三段解释了为什么工作有益于身体健康，是因为工作让人远离孤单、工作让人获得满足感和成就感。

最后一段总结，指出工作让人更加幸福更加健康，呼吁大家积极工作学习。

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housew ives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemploy ment rate increases by 1 %, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.Why is work good for health? It' is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people f eel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard.

11月北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案Part I Reading ComprehensionPassage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem”. To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much. But scientific evidence does little to support this idea. Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food. In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines mu ch less and didn’t watch television.Several modem studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people. In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people. A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts:The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost.The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.(76) [Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.][文章大意及重要词汇]美国30%的成人(adult)都有“体重(weight)问题”。

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A)2007.11.17Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage isfollowed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Scientists find thathard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless arein poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1 %, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.Why is work good for health? It' is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality.By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. Whena writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(77)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.1. The underlined word “average”in Paragraph 1 means （C. ordinary）.2. The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that（C. housewives have less chance to communicate with others）.3. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?（D. A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.）4. We can infer from the passage that those who do not work（A. are likely to live a shorter life）.5. The best title for this passage may be（B. Working Hard Is Good for Healthy）.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes. Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war. But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only thepolitical values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology. In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art. (78)In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented; that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed. Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions. The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political”artist. In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, hecriticized the Spanish governmentfor its abuse (滥用) of power over people.in the same way, art can reflect a culture's religious beliefs. For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed. Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible. Although most people couldn't read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church walls. By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was (and still is) its absence of human and animal images. This reflects the Islamic belief that statues (雕像) are not holy.6. More can be learned about aculture from a study of art history than general history because（C. art history gives us an insight (洞察力) into the essential qualities of a time and a place）.7. Art is subjective in that（A. a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it）. 8. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage? （C. In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other buildings.）9. The passage mainly discusses（B. the difference between general history and art history）.10. It can be concluded from thepassage that（C. a history teachermust be quite objective）. Passage 3Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage:Blind people can “see”things by using other parts of their bodies. This fact may help us to understand our feelings about colon If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously(无意识地).(79)Manufacturers（生产商) have discovered by experience that sugar sells badly in green wrappings, that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and that cosmetics (化妆品）should never be packaged inbrown. These discoveries have grown into a branch of color psychology.Color psychology now finds application in everything from fashion to decoration. Some of our preferences are clearly psychological. Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore associated with calm, while yellow is a day color with associations of energy and incentive (刺激). For a primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the color of blood and anger and the heat that came with effort. And green is associated with passive defense and self-protection.(80) Experiments have shown that colors, partly because of their psychological associations, also havea direct psychological effect . People exposed to bright red show an increase in breath, in heartbeat and in blood pressure; red is exciting. Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect; it is a calming colon Because of its exciting meaning, red is chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm. So fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop the traffic dead. 11. Our preferences for certain colors are（D. partly due to psychological factors）according to the passage.12. If people are exposed to bright red, which of the following things does NOT happen?（B. They feel satisfied.）13. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?（B. Yellow fire engines have caused many bad accidents in some advanced communities.）14. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?（C. Primitive people associated heat and anger with red.）15. Which of the following could be the most suitable title for the passage?（D. Color and Feelings）Part II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In. this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.

北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案Part I Reading ComprehensionPassage lQuestions l to 5 are based on the following passage:What will man be like in the future - in 5000 or even 50000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.Again, in the modem world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain’s capacity. As time goes on, howe ver, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones. This is likely to bring about a physical change tool the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man’s eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? It will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, bothsexes are likely to be bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at .This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own..[文章大意及重要词汇]5000甚至50，000年之后人类会是什么样子?当然，我们只能作一个预测，但是可以肯定的是他们一定会和今天有所不同，因为人类无时无刻不在变化。
