江苏函授学位英语考试真题I recently took the Jiangsu Correspondence Degree English Exam and it was quite the experience. The exam covered a wide range of topics and tested my proficiency in English language skills. From reading comprehension to grammar and vocabulary, the exam was designed to assess my overall understanding and ability to communicate effectively in English.One of the sections of the exam focused on reading comprehension. I was given a series of passages to read and then had to answer questions based on the information presented in the text. This section required me to not only understand the main ideas of the passages but also to analyze and interpret the information in order to answer the questions correctly.Another part of the exam tested my grammar and vocabulary knowledge. I had to demonstrate my understanding of English grammar rules by completing sentences with the correct verb tense, pronoun, or preposition. Additionally,I was asked to choose the most appropriate word to fill in the blanks in sentences, which tested my vocabulary skills. The writing section of the exam required me to compose an essay on a given topic. I had to organize my thoughts coherently and express my ideas clearly in written form. This part of the exam challenged me to showcase my ability to structure an essay, develop my ideas logically, and use proper grammar and vocabulary throughout the writing process.Overall, the Jiangsu Correspondence Degree English Exam was a comprehensive assessment of my English language proficiency. It tested my reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills, providing a well-rounded evaluation of my abilities.

That’s all doctors thought, until they heard about Al Herpin. Al Herpin, it was said, never slept. Could this be true? The doctors decided to see the strange man themselves.Al Herpin was 90 years old when the doctors came to his home in New Jersey. They thought for sure that he got some sleep of some kind. So they stayed with him and watched every movement he made. But they were surprised. Though they watched him hour after hour and day after day, they never saw him sleeping.In fact, he did not even own a bed. He never needed one. The only rest Herpin sometimes got was sitting in a comfortable chair and reading newspapers. The doctors were puzzled by this strange continuous sleeplessness. They asked him many questions, hoping to find an answer. They found only one answer that might explain his condition. Herpin remembered some talk about his mother’s having been injured several days before he was born. But that was all. Was this the real reason? Nobody was sure. Herpin died at the age of 94.31. The main idea of this passage is that .A. large numbers of people do not need sleepB. a person was found who actually didn’t need any sleepC. everyone needs some sleep to stay aliveD. people can live longer by trying not to sleep32. The doctor came to visit Herpin, expecting .A. to cure him of his sleeplessnessB. to find that his sleeplessness was not really trueC. to find out why some old people didn’t need any sleepD. to find a way to free people from the need of sleeping33. One reason that might explain Herpin’s sleeplessness was .A. his mother’s injury before he was bornB. that he had gradually got rid of the sleeping habitC. that he hadn’t got a bedD. his magnificent physical condition34. Herpin’s condition could be regarded as .A. a common oneB. curableC. very healthyD. a rare onePassage BOn April 26, 1986, I was five years old. I can’t remember this day very well, but it turned out to be a disaster not only for our family, but also for thousands of people from many countries. It was a really nice, warm and sunny day.I was outside with my elder brother and my little 13-day-old sister, who was sleeping in a pram under a tree.Suddenly dark clouds appeared in the sky and a strong wind started to blow. Our mum told us to come into the house. While we were gathering our toys, she was trying to take the pram. The first drop of “rain” fell on my sister. It was only later that we found out the rain was radioactive water.At first we were not told anything about the accident. The government “didn’t want people to panic.”But they were afraid that the second reactor(反应堆)would blow up. Trains were made ready to send people away from our city.Since then the word “radiation”has come into and changed our life. Chernobyl deprived(剥夺) me of many joys of my childhood. Life went on as usual. I grew up and went to school. I studied very well. In 1998, I graduated from high school with honors and dreamed of entering a university. And here again Chernobyl interfered. I was diagnosed with a brain tumor(脑瘤). My parents came back from Minsk, where my sister had just undergone a brain tumor operation. I didn’t know how to tell mum that we had to go back to Minsk again for another operation straight after my sister’s. This was how Chernobyl poisoned my youth.35. People didn’t know the accident of Chernobyl at first, because .A. the government wanted to keep it secretB. the weather was too badC. the train took them awayD. nobody knew the truth36. Who got the same terrible illness as I did after the accident?A. My elder brother.B. My little sister.C. My mother.D. My father.37. What does “blow up” in the fourth paragraph mean?A. Fly.B. Close.C. Explode.D. Move.38. Why did the parents have to go back to Minsk again?A. Because my sister would have another operation.B. Because I would have an operation.C. Because Minsk was far from danger.D. Because I entered a university there.Passage COn December 1, 1955, Rosa Parks was planning to take the bus home from work as usual. She had just finished working as a seamstress(女裁缝) at a department store and then walked to the bus stop. As she first boarded the bus, she noticed that the driver was the same man who had sent her off his bus years earlier because she would not go around to the back door after she was already on the bus. She decided to get on anyway and sit down, but she did not sit at the very front of the bus. She took a seat next to a black man in the first row that “colored” people were allowed to sit in. At the next stop, some white people got on the bus. After they filled up the white seats, one man was left standing. When the driver noticed him standing, he told Rosa and the others in her row to let the man have a seat. Three people stood up, but the driver saw that Rosa was still sitting there. He asked if she would stand up, and she refused. Then he told her he would have her arrested, and Rosa told him he could do that.A few minutes later, two policemen got on the bus. When the driver told them that Rosa would not stand up, the policemen walked over to her and asked her why she wouldn’t get up. Rosa said she didn’t think she should stand up and asked, “Why do you push us around?” One policeman answered,“I don’t know, but the law is the law, and you are under arrest.”As soon as he said that, Rosa stood up. Then one of the policemen picked up her purse while the other picked up her shopping bag, and the three left the bus. Finally, they took Rosa to the police station in the car.Rosa’s action that day started a citywide boycott(联合抵制) of the bus system by Blacks that lasted more than a year. This later resulted in the decision against segregation on city buses in the US.39. The driver told Rosa that he would have her arrested because .A. she refused to give her seat to a white manB. she was sitting in the row for white peopleC. she was not allowed to have a seat on the busD. she was black40. Where was Rosa Parks taken finally?A. The bus stop.B. The police station.C. The department store.D. The next bus.第Ⅱ卷(共45分)四、英汉互译(15*2=30分)41.

While AI has the potential to greatly benefit society in many ways, there are also concerns about its impact on the job market and privacy.One of the main benefits of AI is increased efficiency.AI-powered systems can perform tasks faster and more accurately than humans, leading to increased productivity in many industries. In the healthcare sector, for example, AI is being used to diagnose diseases and develop personalized treatment plans. In the transportation sector, AI is helping to improve traffic flow and reduce accidents.However, the rise of AI also raises concerns about job displacement. Many fear that as AI becomes more advanced, it will replace human workers in various industries, leading towidespread unemployment. To address this issue, experts suggest that retraining programs be implemented to help workers adapt to the changing job market.Another major concern with AI is privacy. AI-powered systems collect large amounts of data to improve their performance, raising questions about who has access to this data and how it is being used. There is also concern about the potential for AI to be used for surveillance and monitoring purposes, infringing on individual privacy rights.Overall, the rise of AI presents both opportunities and challenges for society. It is important for policymakers, businesses, and individuals to consider these issues carefully and work together to ensure that AI is used in a way that benefits everyone.Questions:1.

Fast food restaurants are very famous. You can find McDonald's and Kentucky Fried Chicken in many countries around the world. You look at a menu above the counter, and say what you'd like to eat. You pay the person who serves you. You take your food and sit down or take it away. There's no need to leave a tip.In a coffee shop you sit at the counter or at a table. You don't wait for the waitress to show you where to sit. She usually brings you coffee when you sit down. You tell her what you'd like to eat and she brings it to you. You pay the cashier as you leave.In a family restaurant the atmosphere is casual, but the waitress shows you where to sit. Often the waitress tells you her name, but you don't need to tell her yours. If you don't eat everything, your waitress gives you a doggy bag to take your food home. You add an extra fifteen percent to the bill as a tip.In top class restaurants, you need a reservation and you need to arrive on time. The waiter shows you where to sit. If you have wine, he may ask you to taste it. You can only refuse it if it tastes bad, not if you don't like it. When you get your bill, check it and then add fifteen to twenty percent to it as a tip for the waiter.6.There are three types of restaurants mentioned here.A.TB.F答案:B7.We should sit at a counter in a coffee shop.A.TB.F答案:A8.In a coffee shop the waitress often tells you her name.A.TB.F答案:B9.In a top class restaurant you need to add fifteen percent as a tip.A.TB.F答案:A10.The writer takes Mcdonald's as fast food restaurant.A.TB.F答案:AIn the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended onlythree or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person, who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.11.What is the main idea of this passage? ________A.It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B.The role of time in social life over the world.C.If people are late, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D.Not every country treats the concept of time as the same.答案:B12.What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? _______A.A matter of work.B.A matter of life or death.C.You want to see him or her.D.You want to make an appointment with him or her.答案:B13.Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend in the U.S. A.?A.at 7:00 amB.at 4:00 pmC.at the midnightD.at 4 am答案:B14.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? ________A.In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.B.No misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures about the concept of time.C.It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U.S.A..D.Promptness is valued highly in American life.答案:D15.From the passage we can safely infer that _______A.it’s a matter of life or death if you call someone in day time.B.the meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.C.it makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business party.D.if a person is late for a date, he needn’t make some explanation.答案:B三、词汇与语法16.It is believed that if a book is ________, it will surely ________ the reader.A.interested…interestB.interesting…be interestedC.interested…be interestingD.interesting…interest答案:D17.We’ve missed the last bus.

Now city developers are doing a lot of new planting and landscape work inan attempt to bring back its former glory.There is a promising restaurant scene in the neighborhood where I live.

Almost everyone in the country goes in for sports or is a sports fan of one kind or another.Some sports are called spectator sports, that is, sports to watch, such as baseball, football and basketball, because the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number of players. Other sports, such as skiing and swimming, are participant sports, that is, sports for people to engage in. Participant sports draw spectators only on special occasions. Some sports are commercial and professional, in which players are paid for their participation, and spectators are required to pay for their tickets. If you go to the United States, and want to watch a game in person, you can find the ticket information by reading a newspaper or by calling the ticket office of the team. The names of the ticket offices of various teams are listed in the telephone book. Most major sporting events are surely telecast live on television. And if you would rather playa sport than watch it, there are certainly many opportunities to do so. If you are interested in swimming or any indoor sports, go to the YMCA(Young Men's Christian Association) or the YWCM ( Young Women's Christian Association). They offer sports programs to the public at inexpensive rates.And at home, numerous people watch all kinds of sports on television, or listen to broadcasts on the radio. The sports fans at home are no less enthusiastic than those at the stadium. They sometimes even crash their televisions when the side which they favor loses the game.Also, Americans have as much fun reading and talking about sports. Usually several pages of the daily paper are devoted to discussing sports events. In almost any social gathering--dance, tea, cocktail, dinner, etc. people get around to talking about popular players; the team that won last year; who is going to win the championship in the coming season; what records are likely to be broken; what kind of fishing rod or hunting gun is good to buy; or who is now the most popular baseball athlete and who is going to be the leading hitter and so on. So, a great topic for conversation is sports. And if you should visit the United States someday and stay there for some time, you are likely to get involved in a chat like that every day.41. In this passage, baseball, football and basketball are called_______A. ball sportsB. participant sportsC. spectator sportsD. commercial sports42. How can people get the ticket information in the USA?A. By watching the notice on TV.B. By reading the newspapers.C. By notice the various posters.D. By reading the newspapers or by calling the ticket office of the team.43. What does "YWCA" stand for?A. Young Men's Christian Association.B. Young Women's Christian Association.C. Young Men's Commercial Association.D. Young Women's Commercial Association.44. Why do the sports fans sometimes crash their televisions.'?A. Because they are angry when the side which they favor loses the game.B. Because their televisions are of bad quality and they cannot watch the games clearly.C.

Learning to use chopsticks has been an important lessonfor all of them, because it is not only a part of gastronomic ( 美食的 ) culture, but also a political art, a "small trick" to show off and win the host's pleasure.Nixon had set the example for American presidents to pay attention to the art of using chopsticks, which was also a conversation topic at the state banquet during his visit. This, just like the shots (镜头、快照) of Nixon downing (喝下) Maotai, was televised throughout the world. From then on all American presidents visiting China have tried their best to show off their skill 'in using chopsticks.At the 1972 banquet, premier Zhou Enlai noticed the dexterity (熟练) with which president Nixon used the chopsticks and praised him and Mrs. Nixon for their first-class skill. Mrs. Nixon immediately seized upon the topic with great relish (饶有兴趣) and even let out the "secret" that they had been practicing using chopsticks in the White House for their visit to China. For half a year the Nixons had been using chopsticks instead of knives and forks for their meals.Nothing gave the Nixons more delight than to be praised by their host for their skill in using chopsticks. It takes much time and hard work for a westerner to master the technique of using chopsticks if he does not want to make blunders. President Nixon had taken the matter very seriously. He had inquired from the president of Pakistan about what kind of chopsticks were used at state banquets in Beijing and how many courses there usually were, and then he started to seriously practise with similar chopsticks and to hold dress rehearsals (彩排) .The two countries had not established diplomatic relations when Nixon first visited China, so his visit was not an official state visit, but nevertheless he was meticulous (一丝求苟) with every single minor detail. Later US presidents visiting China followed his example and paid special attention to minor details.46. From the passage we know Nixon was the first to American presidents tolearn to use chopsticks.A. make an example ofB. set an example forC. list an example forD. follow the example of47. The reason that every US president since Nixon learned how to use chopsticks is that it's a political art to and win the host's pleasure.A. show aroundB. show offC. show roundD. show up48. From the passage we know for a westerner to master the technique to usechopsticks.A. it is easyB. it takes much time and hard workC. it costs a lotD. it only takes a long time49.

Reading ComprehensionThe following passages have been chosen from the textbook and followed by questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage.1Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction and even if they have only visited a place once, they will be able to find it again years later. I am one of those unfortunate people who have a very poor sense of direction, and though I may have visited a place time after time, I still manage to get lost on my way there. So if anyone ever asks me the way somewhere, I always tell them that I am a stranger to the town in order to avoid confusing them, but even this can have embarrassing results.I was once on my way to work when I was stopped by a man who asked me if I would direct him to the Bank of China Building. Without thinking, I gave my usual reply, but I had only walked on a few steps when I realized that he had asked for directions to my office building. However, at this point, I found it was too late to turn back and search him out in the crowd behind me as I had an appointment to keep at the office with a new client and I did not want to keep him waiting.Imagine my embarrassment when my secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions to my office and his surprise when he recognized me as the person he had asked!31.

But the world is changing day by day, and even the Stock Exchange, which seemed to be a man’s castle, is gradually opening its doors to the other sex. On November 16, 1971, a great decision was made. The Stock Exchange Council ( the body of men that administers the Stock Exchange) decided that women should be allowed onto the new trading floor when it opened in 1973. But the “castle” had not been completely conquered. The firstgirls to work in “The House” w ere not brokers or jobbers. They were neither allowed to become partners in stock-broking firms, nor to be authorized dealers in stocks and shares. They were simply junior clerks and telephone operators.Women have been trying to get into the Stock Exchange for many years. Several votes have been taken in “ The House” to see whether themembers would be willing to allow women to become members, but the answer has always been “ No”. There have been three refusals of this kind since 1967. Now women are admitted, although in a very junior capacity. Two firms of jobbers made an application to the Stock Exchange Council to be allowed to employ girl clerks. Permission was finally given: “the new floor is going to be different from the old one. All the jobbers will have their own stands, with space for a telephone and typewriters. Therefore there will have to be typists and telephone operators. So women must be allowed in.” This decision did not mean a very great victory in the war for equal rights for women. However, it was a step in the right direction. The Chairman of the Stock Exchange said, “I think that the opening of the new building will eventually lead to women being allowed to have full membership of the Stock Exchange. It is only a matter of time; it must happen.”36.

On the lonely, lifeless surface of the moon, a strange-looking vehicle squats(蹲伏)motionless under the sun’s glaring(刺眼的)rays. On one of its four legs is attached a small, stainless steel plaque(匾)which reads:HERE MEN FROM THE PLANET EARTHFIRST SET FOOT UPON THE MOONJULY,1969 A.D.WE CAME IN PEACE FOR ALL MANKINDThe vehicle, the cast-off(丢弃的)lower half of a lunar landing craft, is a monument(纪念)to the historic event on July 20, when two American astronauts planted the first human footsteps on the moon. The man who took the first step was Neil A. Armstrong, the 39-year-old civilian commander of the Apollo 11. As he reached the bottom of the landing craft’s ladder and extended his booted left foot to touch themoon’s powdery surface, he said, “That’s one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind.”He was followed down the ladder minutes later by Edwin B. Aldrin, Jr., a 39-year-old Air Force colonel. For 2 hours and 21 minutes, the two men, carefully at first and then boldly, wandered about on the barren, rock-strewn surface. They tested their ability to move about on this strange world. They took photographs of the landscape. They set up scientific experiments and collected rock and soil samples. They set up atelevision camera so the whole world could watch. All the while, the third member of the crew, Michael Collins, 38, an Air Force lieutenant colonel, piloted the Command Ship in lunar orbit 70 miles above the surface, waiting for the two explorers to rejoin him for the trip back to the earth. Altogether, the visit to the moon lasted 21 hours and 37 minutes.Though the mission(任务)was completed almost without flaw(瑕疵), it was filled with suspense and anxiety. The astronauts faced risks on the moon never before met by man. And, as with all space flights, chances of failure and disaster were ever present—the blast-off(发射)of the giant Saturn(土星)rocket at Cape Kennedy, the entry of thespaceship into earth and lunar orbits, the never-before-attempted landing and lift-off from the moon, the link-up of Columbia and Eagle, the re-entry into the atmosphere(大气层), and the splash-down(溅落). An error or failure of any of the millions of individual parts anywhere along the way could have ended the mission short of the goal. An equipment failure or accident on the moon could have left the astronauts stranded(陷入困境).But they made it. After eight days in space, they splashed down in the Pacific to a presidential(总统的)greeting aboard the recovery carrier, the USA. Hornet. They were the heroes of the nation and the world. It was a journey that took man beyond the earth to walk on another world.41. What was left on the moon after man’s first landing on it?A. Two astronaut’s footprints.B. A monument built by man.C.
