The word rubbish could lose its meaning because everything which goes into the dumps would bemade into something useful. Even the most dangerous and unpleasant waste would provide energy if nothing else.The latest project is to take a city of around half a million inhabitants and discover exactly what raw materials go intoit and what go out. The aim is to find out how much of these raw materials could be provided if a plant for recycling wastewere built just outside the city. This plant would recycle not only mental such as steel, lead and copper, but also paperand rubber as well.Another new project is being set up to discover the best ways of sorting and separating the rubbish. When this projectis complete, the rubbish will be processed like this: first, it will pass through sharp mental bars which will tear openthe plastic bags in which rubbish is usually packed; then it will pass through a powerful fan to separate the lightest elements from the heavy solid; after that founders and rollers will break up everything that can be broken. Finally, the rubbish willpass under magnets, which will remove the bits of iron and steel; the rubber and plastic will then be sorted out in the final stage.The first full-scale(全面的)giant recycling plants are perhaps fifteen years away. Indeed, with the growing cost oftransporting rubbish to move distant dumps, some big cities will be forced to build their own recycling plants before long.phrase “should be well on with” most probably means______.A. get ready to startB. have achieved a great deal inC. have completed what was startedD. put an end to37. What is NOT mentioned as a part of the recycling process described in Para. 3A. Sharpening mental barsB. Breaking up whatever is breakableC. Sorting out small pieces of mentalD. Separating light elements from the heavy ones38. What is the main reason for big cities to build their own recycling plantsA. To deal with wastes in a better wayB. To get raw materials locallyC. To get big profits from those plantsD. To protect the environment from pollution39. The first full-scale huge recycling plants______.A. will probably be in operation in fifteen yearsB. will probably take less than fifteen years to buildC. began to operate fifteen years agoD. will be built fifteen years later40. The passage is mainly about______.A. the location of recycling plantsB. new ways of recycling wastesC. a cheap way to get energyD. the probability of city environmentIIIPlay is the principal business of childhood, and in recent years research has shown the great importance of play in thedevelopment of a human being. From earliest infancy, every child needs opportunity and the right materials for play, andthe main tools of play are toys. Their main function is to suggest, encourage and assist play. To succeed in this they mustbe good toys, which children will play with often, and will come back to again and again. Therefore it is important to choose suitable toys for different stages of a child’s development.In recent years research on infant development has shown that the standard a child is likely to reach, within the rangeof his inherited(继承的) abilities, is largely determined in the first three years of his life. So a baby’s ability to profit from the right play materials should not be underestimated. A baby who is encouraged and stimulated (刺激), talked to and shown things and played with, has the best chance of growing up successfully.In the next stage, from three to five years old, curiosity knows no bounds. Every type of suitable toy should be made a vailable to the child, for trying out, experimenting and learning, for discovering his own particular ability. Bricks and jigsaws(七巧板)and construction toys; painting, scribbling(涂鸦) find making things; sand and water play; toys for imaginative andpretending play; the first social games for learning to play and get on with others.By the third stage of play development—from five to seven or eight years—the child is at school. But for a few more years play is still the best way of learning, at home or at school. It is easier to see which type of toys the child most enjoys.Until the age of seven or eight, play and work mean much the same to a child. But once reading has been mastered, thenbooks and school become the main source of learning. Toys are still interesting and valuable, they lead on to new hobbies,but their significance has changed—to a child of nine or ten years, toys and games mean, as to adults, relaxation and fun.41. The passage tells us that as a child grows up, _______.A. he should be allowed to choose his own toysB. he should be given identical (同样的) toysC. he should be given different toysD. he should be given fewer and fewer toys42. According to the passage, the abilities a child has inherited from his parents______.A. determine his characterB. will not change after the age of threeC. partly determine the standard he is likely to reachD. to a large extent determine the choice of toys43. Who have the best chance of growing up successfullyA. Those who tend to overeatB. Those who are given a lot of toysC. Those who are given toys, talked to and played withD. Those who can share their toys with their playmates44. We learn from the passage that a child has boundless curiosity(好奇心)______.A. when he is twoB. when he is around fourC. when he is sixD. when he is eight45. The passage is mainly about_______.A. the importance of pre-school educationB. the importance of schoolingC. the role of play in a child’s developmentD. the choice of toys for adolescentsIVWhen television was first introduced into American society thirty years ago, writers and social scientists thought thatthis new invention would better American life. Television is going to bring American families closer together, predictedpsychologist Joel Gold in 1949. Pictures which advertised television in the 1950s invariably showed a happy family gatheredtogether in the living room, sharing the TV viewing experience. Who could have guessed that a quarter of a century laterMother would be in the kitchen watching a daytime drama, Dad would be in the living room watching a ball game, and the children would be watching cartoons in their bedroomTelevision has certainly changed American life, but not the way the first critics predicted. The first televisions wereenormously expensive, so most families owned only one. By 1975, however, 60% of American families owned two televisions ormore; some middle class families had as many as five television sets under one roof. Such multi-set families may keep familymembers in the same house, but that hardly brings them together. In fact, family outings — hiking, going to the movies,going out to dinner —are often limited by TV because one or more family members d on’t want to go: “I’ll miss my program.” is the common complaint.Perhaps more important than the lack of family outings is the destruction of family time together at home. Social scientistsin the 1950s could not have realized how much television Americans would watch in the 1980s; the average American watches6 hours of TV a day. That leaves little time for the special family characteristics and traditions that used to be formedduring long evenings together. The time devoted to games, songs, and hobbies — all shared activities — in the years beforeTV is now dominated by “the tube”. And especially damaging to fam ily relationships is the elimination of the opportunitiesfor talking: chatting, arguing, discussing. Without such communication, family life disintegrates.Domination is the key word. Families in America today schedule their lives around the television. Children rush home fromschool to watch their programs while they do their homework. Mother shops between her special programs. The ski slopes arenearly empty on Sunday; football on TV takes precedence. The family may even eat meals in front of the television. Moreover,television is used as a baby-sitter; small children nationwide spend countless hours in front of the TV, passively ingesting whatever flashes before their eyes. Parents use the television as a resource of reward and punishment: “If you mowthe lawn, you can watch TV an extra hour tonight,” or “No TV for you. You didn’t do your homework”. Ultimately, life-styles revolve around a regular schedule of eating, sleeping, and watching television.Isn’t there a better family life than this dismal, mechanized arrangement According to social scientist Mary Helen Thuente, the quality of life is diminished as family ties grow weaker, as children’s lives grow more and more separate from their parents, as the opportunities for living and sharing within a family are eliminated. Indeed, if the family does not accumulate shared experiences, it is not likely to survive. Consequently, if parents and children alike do not change their priorities, television will continue to exert its influence on American family life as baby-sitter, pacifier, teacher, role model, andsupplier of morals, thus supplanting the place of the family in society.46. The main idea of paragraph 1 is that______.A. thirty years ago, television was introduced into American societyB. TV can get the families closer togetherC. instead of bringing American families closer together, television causes families ties to grow weakerD. mother, father and children all like to watch TV47. In paragraph 2, the phrase multi-set families means______.A. families with several televisionsB. families with two televisionsC. families with two radiosD. families with several radios48. Which of the following is NOT trueA. Television has brought great changes to American life.B. On Sunday most people watch football matches on TV instead of skiing.C. Small children spent a lot of time in front of the TV watching any program they can.D. It is easy for families with more than one television to bring their members together.49. In paragraph 3, the word “tube” refers to______.A. the televisionB. the radioC. the underground railwayD. the tooth tube50. Which statement is trueA. Children run to school for watching their TV programs.B. Eating, sleeping and watching television are now the life patterns for very few American people.C. The quality of life has nothing to do with family ties.D. The family will disappear if parents and children continue to spend too much time watching TV.Part III Cloze *20=10points)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

That product is foreign words. Gairaigo——words that come from outside——have been part of the Japanese language for centuries. Mostly borrowed from English and Chinese, these terms are often changed into forms no longer understood by native speakers. But in the last few years the trickle (涓涓细流) of foreign words has become a flood, and people fear the increasing use of foreign words is making it hard for the Japanese to understand each other and could lead to many people forgetting the good qualities of traditional Japanese. "The popularity of foreign words is part of the Japanese interest in anything new," says university lecturer and writer Takashi Saito. "By using a foreign word you can make a subject seem new, which makes it easier for the media to pick up." "Experts often study abroad and use English terms when they speak with people in their own fields. Those terms are then included in government white papers," said Muturo Kai, president of the National Language Research Institute. "Foreign words find their way easily into announcements made to the general public, when they should really be explained in Japanese." Against the flow of new words, many Japanese are turning back to the study of their own language. Saito's Japanese to Be Read Aloud is one of many language books that are now flying off booksellers' shelves. "We were expecting to sell the books to young people," said the writer, "but it turns out they are more popular with the older generation, who seem uneasy about the future of Japanese."31. What advantages do foreign words have over traditional Japanese terms?A. The ideas expressed in foreign words sound new.B. Foreign words are best suited for announcements.C. Foreign words make new subjects easier to understand.D. The use of foreign words makes the media more popular.32. In the opinion of Takashi Saito, Japanese people_________A. are good at learning foreign languagesB. are willing to learn about new thingsC. trust the mediaD. respect experts33. Which of the following plays an important part in the spread of foreign words?A. The media and government papers.B. Best-selling Japanese textbooks.C. The interest of young Japanese.D. Foreign products and experts.34. The book Japanese to Be Read Aloud__________.A. sells very well in JapanB. is supported by the governmentC. is questioned by the old generationD. causes misunderstanding among the readersIIBefore 1945, hardly anyone outside of New Mexico had ever heard of Alamogordo. In 1960 its population numbered 21, 723.Ever since 1898, when the town had been built by the Southern Pacific Railroad, Alamogordo had been a lonely town. The land around it was largely desert, and largely empty. Because it was isolated ( 隔离旳) and because the weather was almost always clear and peaceful, a spot of desert near Alamogordo was chosen as the test site for the first atomic bomb ever exploded. The secret name of the test was Zero. At dawn on July 16, 1945, the atomic bomb was set off. Observers agreed that they had witnessed something unlike anything ever seen by man before, a huge, colorful fireball, more brilliant than the sun, flashing as it rose for miles into the air. Never before had man released so much power at one time, nor had any nation ever possessed a weapon as terrible and destructive as the atomic bomb. For several weeks, the test was kept secret. When an atomic bomb was dropped from an American plane on Hiroshima, Japan, newspapers and radio stations all over America told of the test of the bomb in New Mexico. Almost everybody was surprised to learn where the bomb had been made and tested; the deserts of the Southwest had hidden the secret well. When news of the atomic bomb and its destructiveness was announced, people all over the world wondered what other new weapons were being prepared in the New Mexico desert. Some people doubted that the secret of making atomic bombs could be kept from other countries. Some even doubted the wisdom of using so powerful a weapon. But no one doubted that a new kind of war had begun at Alamogordo, one summer morning in 1945.35. What is the best topic of this passage?A. The secret of Alamogordo.B. A new kind of war.C. The destructive force of the first atomic bomb.D. The selection of the test site for the first atom bomb.36. Which of the following is the main reason for choosing Alamogordo as the test site?A. It always had an enjoyable climate.B. It was connected to other cities by a railway.C. Its location would hide the secret well.D. It was situated in southwestern New Mexico.37. When was the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima?A. As soon as the secret was let out.B. At dawn on July 16, 1945.C. Immediately after the test.D. Several weeks after the test.38. After the first atomic bomb explosion, everyone agreed that__________A. it was wise to choose Alamogordo as the test siteB. man had entered the age of nuclear warC. it was not wise to use such a powerful weaponD. it was not possible to keep the technology of making atomic bombs as a secretIIIThe coolest idea in stroke treatment is refrigeration. Yes, cold is hot. Many doctors believe they can reduce the lasting forever damage after a stroke by quickly dropping patient body temperatures for a day or two, basicall y storing their brains on ice. “It's like putting food in the refrigerator. It doesn't go bad. You slow down all the processes.” says Dr David Tong of Stanford University. The approach is new, but the understanding behind it—that cold protects the brain like a fridge keeps tomatoes——has been recognized for centuries. Everyone knows a story of a child who falls into an icy pond is fished out after 45 minutes and then is warmed up and is perfectly OK. The cold water stops biological processes that ordinarily would kill brain cells almost immediately. Performed occasionally in surgery, cooling the sick is still considered too risky and unpleasant and impractical for the 700, 000 strokes in the US each year. Instead, researchers put their faith in medicines. But that goal has been all too difficult to catch as dozens of supposedly brain-protecting drugs failed testing over that past ten years. Now, supported by fresh science and new technology, doctors are looking again at cold. They hope soon to prove it a workable and valuable first step for treating stroke victims. In theory, doctors say, cooling the head should slow or even stop the destruction of weak brain cells. Several experiments have indicated this might be the case. Currently the whole body must be cooled, using air-cooled blankets and sometimespacking in ice or rubbing with alcohol. Deep-cooling is already sometimes used to minimize (减到最低) damage during some surgery. It was also the way in the early days of open-heart surgery before the invention of the movement of blood machines that pump the blood while the heart is stopped. For these operations, doctors often took patients to such low temperatures that dangerous complications (并发症) occurred, such as irregular heartbeats and blood clotting.39. The writer thinks that refrigeration in stroke treatment___________.A. is a wonderful methodB. will produce high temperatureC. has been used for centuriesD. is too simple to carry out40. In the USA, cooling the sick in surgery_______.A. is popular but risky for patientsB. has been proved to be safer than brain-protecting drugsC. is .considered helpful for treating stroke patientsD. is still considered dangerous and costs more money41. From this passage we can conclude that___________.A. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in an old wayB. doctors should treat all kinds of patients in a strange wayC. medical science is developing with other sciencesD. medical treatment is based on theory42. From the last part of this passage, we know that_________.A. doctors can't operate on a patient if his body temperature is highB. doctors should try their best to reduce a patient's temperatureC. a patient's body can work normally without the movement of his bloodD. a patient's body temperature can't be reduced too lowIVImagine going to your doctor with frequent headaches. Your doctor takes a prescription pad and writes a word on it. The word isn‘t “aspirin”, it’s “Mozart”. The idea isn't so far-fetched. Many kinds of music can stir the imagination and produce strong feeling. Scientists have found Mozart's music to be remarkable in its ability to calm its listeners. Many amazing cases have been known using Mozart as a healing(治愈旳) aid. For example,a tiny newly-born baby named Krissy, who weighed just 1.5 pounds at birth, was on total life support. Doctors thought she had little chance of survival. Her mother insisted on playing Mozart for Krissy, and thinks it saved her daughter's life. Krissy lived, but she was very small for her age and slower than the average child. At the age of four, she showed an interest in music and her parents gave her violin lessons. To their astonishment, Krissy was able to play musical pieces from memory that were far beyond the ability of an average four-year-old. Playing music helped her improve in all areas of her life. And there are other stories. Officials in Washington State report that new arrivals from Asia learnEnglish more quickly when they listen to Mozart. Even animals respond to Mozart. In France, cows listening to Mozart give more milk. Why Mozart, rather than Bach or the Beatles? Any kind of music can have an effect on some people. But Mozart has more balance. It isn't too fast or too show; it's just right. Don Campbell, who wrote a book called The Mozart Effect, says, "It's like food. A hot spicy meal will affect you differently than a sweet dessert. And while you might love these foods, they aren't good for you to eat every day. You need simple, nutritious (营养旳) food on a steady basis. That's the way Mozart is. It's like a nutritionally balanced meal that does good to your body."43. Scientists find Mozart's music has a special effect on__________A. stirring people's imaginationB. curing certain illnessesC. increasing the growth of a newly-born babyD. calming down its listeners44. From the third paragraph, we can conclude that Krissy if she had not listened to Mozart.A. would have diedB. would not have been so gifted in musicC. would have stayed in hospital longerD. would have stopped growth45. Which of the following is not true about the effect of Mozart's music?A. It can help people learn foreign languages more easily.B. It can help people sleep more peacefully.C. It can make cows give more milk.D. It can be used as medicine.46. The author mentioned Don Campell and his book_____________A. as a good support to his own ideaB. to show the relationship between food and musicC. to give some new explanations about Mozart's musicD. to ask people to listen to Mozart moreFish have ears. Really. They're quite small and have no opening to the outside world carrying sound through the body. For the past seven years, Simon Thorrold, a university professor, has been examining fish ears, small round ear bones called otoliths. As fish grow, so do their otoliths. Each day, their otoliths gain a ring of calcium carbonate. By looking through amicroscope and counting these rings, Thorrold can determine the exact age of a young fish. As a fish gets older, its otoliths no longer get daily rings. Instead, they get yearly rings, which can also be counted, giving information about the fish's age, just like the growth rings of a tree. Ring counting is nothing new to fish scientists. But Thorrold has turned to a new direction. They're examining the chemical elements (元素) of each otolith ring. The daily ring gives us the time, but chemistry tells us about the environment in which the fish swam on any given day. These elements tell us about the chemistry of the water that the fish was in. It also says something about water temperature, which determines how much of these elements will gather within each otolith ring. Thorrold can tell, for example, if a fish spent time in the open ocean before entering the less salty water of coastal areas. He can basically tell where fish are spending their time at any given stage of history. In the case of the Atlantic croaker, a popular saltwater food fish, Thorrold and his assistant have successfully followed the travelling of young fish from mid-ocean to the coast, a journey of many hundreds of miles. This is important to managers in the fish industry, who know nearly nothing about the whereabouts of the young fish for most food fish in the ocean. Eager to learn about his technology, fish scientists are now lending Thorrold their ears.47.What can we learn about fish ears from the text?A. They are small soft rings.B. They are not seen from the outside.C. They are openings only on food fish.D. They are not used to receive sound.48. Why does the writer compare the fish to trees?A. Trees gain a growth ring each day.B. Trees also have otoliths.C. Their growth rings are very small.D. They both have growth rings.49. Why is it important to study the chemistry of otolith rings?A. The elements of the otoliths can tell the history of the sea.B. Chemical contents of otoliths can tell how fast fish can swim.C. We can know more about fish and their living environment.D. Scientists can know exactly how old a fish is.50. How would you understand "fish scientists are now lending their ears" ?A. They are very interested in Thorrold's research findings.B. They want to know where they can find fish.C. They lend their fish for chemical studies.D. They wonder if Thorrold can find growth rings from their ears.Part III ClozeDirections: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

Do you agree or disagree with this statement?"In my opinion, technology has both positive and negative effects on our social lives. On one hand, it is true that excessive use of technology can lead to isolation and decreasedface-to-face interactions. People spend more time on their phones and computers than they do talking to each other in person. This can lead to feelings of loneliness and disconnection from the real world.However, technology also has the potential to bring people together in new and innovative ways. Social media platforms allow us to stay connected with friends and family members across the globe. Video calls and messaging apps make it easier to communicate with loved ones who are far away. Additionally, technology has enabled us to join online communities and find support from like-minded individuals.In conclusion, while there are drawbacks to the increasing reliance on technology, I believe that it ultimately has the power to enhance our social connections and bring us closer together.It is up to us to strike a balance and use technology in a way that enriches our lives, rather than isolates us from one another.Overall, the Liaoning Adult Undergraduate English Degree Examination is designed to test candidates' proficiency in English language skills and their ability to think critically and express their opinions effectively.

Provide examples to support your argument.Answer:Social media has become an integral part of our daily lives, connecting us with friends, family, and strangers from around the world. While social media has its benefits, such as allowing us to stay in touch with loved ones and share information quickly, it has also had a significant impact on interpersonal relationships.One of the main drawbacks of social media on interpersonal relationships is the decrease in face-to-face communication. With the rise of social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, many people prefer to communicate through text messages or comments rather than having a real conversation.This lack of in-person interaction can lead to misunderstandings and a sense of disconnection between individuals.Moreover, social media has also made it easier for people to compare themselves to others, leading to feelings of jealousy and inadequacy. People often post the highlights of their lives on social media, creating a false sense of perfection that can make others feel insecure about their own lives. This can put a strain on relationships and lead to feelings of resentment and envy.Despite these negative impacts, social media can also strengthen interpersonal relationships in some ways. For example, social media allows us to stay connected with friends and family members who live far away, enabling us to share important moments in our lives and offer support when needed. Additionally, social media can be a platform for activism and social change, bringing people together to fight for important causes and raise awareness about issues that matter.In conclusion, social media has both positive and negative effects on interpersonal relationships. While it can help us stay connected with loved ones and make a positive impact on society, it can also lead to feelings of dissatisfaction and isolation. It is important for individuals to be mindful of how they usesocial media and strive to maintain meaningful connections with others in the digital age.Overall, the Liaoning Adult Undergraduate English Degree Examination aims to assess candidates' reading comprehension and writing skills in English. By practicing with sample questions and answers like the ones provided above, candidates can improve their English language proficiency and prepare for the exam effectively. Good luck!。

For each of them there are 4choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer onthe ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneThe journey two divers made some time ago to the very deepest point on theearth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be studied. Thetwo men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a smallsteel ball to find out if there are any ocean currents or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the ball would come to the surface indaylight, and so be easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it.The divers began preparations early in the morning and soon afterwards, when allwas ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layersof water. In time, the temperature dropped to freezing point. They kept in touch with the mothership by telephone telling how they felt. Then, at a depth of 3, 000 feet, the telephone stoppedworking and they were quite cut off from the outside world. All went well until some four hourslater at 30, 000 feet, the men were frightened by a loud, cracking noise: eventhe smallest hole in the ball would have meant instant death. Luckily, though,it was only one of the outer windowsthat had broken. Soon afterwards, the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of“dust”made up of small dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and themen were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quiteuntroubled by the greatwater-pressure. But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long, as the heat from them madethe water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint but clearvoices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away. After a stay of thirty minutesthe men began their journey up arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none theworse for their experience.16.The purpose of the divers ’journey to the deepest point on the earth was to find__________.A.if there are water currents and life in the great depthsB.if people can stand the severe cold in the great depthsC.if there are steps in the great depthsD.if the telephone works well in the great depths17.The divers set out early in the morning so that __________.A.they could return to the surface during the dayB.they could see at the bottom of the oceanC.they could avoid the cold at nightD.they could stay long at the bottom18.Which of the statements is true?A.The ocean water temperature decreases steadily with the depth.B.There are steps on the way to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.C.There are steps between the water layers of different temperatures.D.The water layers of different temperatures made the divers feel as if theywere going down steps.19.As the divers went down to the ocean floor, the telephone __________.A.kept working all the timeB.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again afterthey reached the bottomC.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again at 30, 000 feetD.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again whenthey returned t the same depth20.On the ocean floor, the divers found that __________.A.there was no life but some small dead sea-creaturesB.fish were swimming as freely as they do near the surfaceC.fish were not swimming freely in the dark waterD.fish were not swimming freely under the high water-pressurePassage TwoThere are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information inlong-term memory can be recalled at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. In contrast, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the informationover and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are leaning English as a second languageremember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, advanced,and native-speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question testto see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjectshad to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions hadfour choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetterare four words that sound a like. Some of the questions had four choices that havethe same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakeson words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes onwords that have the same meaning. Henning ’s results suggest that beginning students hold thesound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words intheir short-term memory.21. Henning made the experiment in order to study __________.A.how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB.how students learn English vocabularyC.how to develop students ’ability in EnglishD.how long information in short-term memory is kept22.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?rmation in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B.Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C.It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D.Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his subjects.23.From Henning ’s results we can see that _________.A.beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB.advanced students remember words by their meaningC.it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD.it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning24.The word “subject”in the passage means __________.A.the college course the students takeB.the theme of the listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD.the student experimented on25.The passage centres on __________.A.memoryB.two kinds of memoryC.short-term memoryD.an experiment on studentsPassage ThreeEaster is probably the most important Christian holiday on the calendar because it commemorates Christ ’s resurrection from the dead. Like many other religious holidays, though, Easter has incorporated many traditions from pagan beliefs andpre-Christian rites of seasonalregeneration.The word Easter has Indo-European roots and means “dawn”. This is a direct reference to the pagan goddess of dawn and new life. The egg, a symbol of Easter,is a sign of fertility which reflects ancient spring renewal rites and beliefs that have been absorbed into the Christian tradition. Even the Easter bunny who brings the eggs was the escort of the Germanic goddess Ostara, who had a holiday namedafter her that fell on the vernal equinox. This serves to underscore the pagan elements that still remain a part of this quintessential Christian holy day.In the United States, Easter is celebrated in several ways. On Easter morning children usually begin their day by looking for Easter eggs that the Easter bunnyhas hidden for them. Of course, most children know that the eggs were hidden by their parents, not the Easter bunny. In fact, many children help their parentscolor the Easter eggs, knowing that soon they will be eating them as a snack on Easter day. Some cities have Easter egg hunts at the local parks.Since Easter is always celebrated on Sunday, many people attend “Sunrise services”at their local church. In fact, more people go to church on Easter Sunday than at any other time of the year. Sunrise services begin very early in the morning, usually right about the same time as when thesun begins to rise, and last until almost noon. After church families gather and have a big holiday feast.Easter also marks the coming of spring. People are usually happy that winteris over, so parks are usually full of people who want to get outside and enjoy the fresh air.26.Which of the following best defines Easter?A.It is partially religious.B.It is a Christian holiday.C.It is purely a religious tradition.D.It is the most important Christian holiday.27.The Easter egg represents __________.A.springB.new lifeC.productivityD.Easter28.What is the main point of the third paragraph?A.Children like eating eggs on Easter.B.Children help their parents on Easter.C.People participate in many activities on Easter.D. A lot of people go to church on Easter.29.The celebration of Easter does not include __________.A.eating Easter eggsB.hunting Easter eggsC.buying gifts for childrenD.having religious ceremonies30.Why do people go to parks on Easter?A.Because spring is coming.B.Because it is part of the celebration.C.Because the air is fresh on that day.D.Because they feel free on that day.Passage FourOne of Britain ’s few distinctive contributions to the world culture may be doomed, according to a survey that suggests holiday postcards are being emailed and texted extinction. More than half of the 1000 holiday-makers interviewed said they had decided to send fewer cards, turning instead to their electronic rivals. A quarter of the respondents dismissed postcards as old-fashioned and slow to arrive.A further 14% admitted that thinking of something to fill the space was too challenging, compared with a call home. Although officially invented by a Hungarian, Emanuel Herrmann, 1869, the idea of illustrated cards was taken up with mostenthusiasm in Victorian Britain, joining Gothic architecture and landscape gardening as fields in which the country excelled. “If the British postcard did become extinct we would lose for ever something of great importance to thenation, ”said Chris Mottershead of Thomson Holiday, which commissioned the poll Marie Angelou of Sussex University, who has investigated the importance of sending and receiving postcards, backed him. “Postcards are nothing like phone calls,instant texting and direct photo shots via mobile, ”she said. “All these are useful, practical devices, but postcards offersomething else, something additional that is not mundane and simply functional,but imaginative and personal. They can evoke the real atmosphere of our holiday ina way that nothing else can do. They ’re also for more than a moment –with somepeople adding them to collections built up overyears and years.”Postcard-collecting, or deltiology, is third only to coins andstamps in Britain ’s allied tradition of collecting things. The country ’s uniquelypostcard-related achievements include the invention in 1902 of the “divided back ”.With the address taking up half of the writing area, brief postcard scribes becamethe precursor to today ’s cryptic text messages.31.Based on the survey, the conclusion is that __________.A.holiday postcards were not popular among those interviewedB.half of the British are thinking of quitting postcardsC.holiday postcards may have a gloomy futureD. a quarter of the interviewed threw away their postcards32.Which of the following is not a reason why people refuse to send cards?A.Sending cards is not fashionable.B.Sending cards is slow.C.It is difficult to think of something to write on the cards.D.It ’s difficult to find a suitable card to send.33.According to the text, the significance of postcard is that it is one of those that_________.A.were invented by foreignersB.postcard has a long historyC.were Britain ’s own creationD.Britain used to be proud of34.According to Marie Angelou, _________.A.postcards are totally different from phone calls, instant texting, etc.B.postcards don’tfunction as well as phone calls, instant texting, etc.C.postcards function better than phone calls, instant texting and the likeD.there is more to postcards than its practical functions35.What is not a reason why some people support cards?A.They can evoke the atmosphere of holiday.B.They are convenient.C.They can be collected.D.They are imaginative and personal.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single linethrough the center.Passage OneThe journey two divers made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be studied. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small steel ball to find out if there are any ocean currents or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the ball would come to the surface in daylight, and so be easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations early in the morning and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.The divers felt as if they were going down steps as they passed through warm and cold layers of water. In time, the temperature dropped to freezing point. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone telling how they felt. Then, at a depth of 3, 000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world. All went well until some four hours later at 30, 000 feet, the men were frightened by a loud, cracking noise: even the smallest hole in the ball would have meant instant death. Luckily, though, it was only one of the outer windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the ball touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of “dust”made up of small dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the great water-pressure. But they did not dare to leave the lights on for long, as the heat from them made the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint but clear voices of the divers were heard on the mother ship seven miles away. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience.16.The purpose of the divers’ journey to the deepest point on the earth was to find __________.A.if there are water currents and life in the great depthsB.if people can stand the severe cold in the great depthsC.if there are steps in the great depthsD.if the telephone works well in the great depths17.The divers set out early in the morning so that __________.A.they could return to the surface during the dayB.they could see at the bottom of the oceanC.they could avoid the cold at nightD.they could stay long at the bottom18.Which of the statements is trueA.The ocean water temperature decreases steadily with the depth.B.There are steps on the way to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean.C.There are steps between the water layers of different temperatures.D.The water layers of different temperatures made the divers feel as if they were goingdown steps.19.As the divers went down to the ocean floor, the telephone __________.A.kept working all the timeB.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again after they reachedthe bottomC.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again at 30, 000 feetD.stopped working at a depth of 3, 000 feet and began working again when they returnedt the same depth20.On the ocean floor, the divers found that __________.A.there was no life but some small dead sea-creaturesB.fish were swimming as freely as they do near the surfaceC.fish were not swimming freely in the dark waterD.fish were not swimming freely under the high water-pressurePassage TwoThere are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be recalled at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. In contrast, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.Henning studied how students who are leaning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, advanced, and native-speaking students.To begin, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound a like. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.21.Henning made the experiment in order to study __________.A.how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memoryB.how students learn English vocabularyC.how to develop students’ ability in EnglishD.how long information in short-term memory is kept22.Which of the following statements is true according to the passagermation in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.B.Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.C.It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.D.Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his subjects.23.From Henning’s results we can see that _________.A.beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of wordsB.advanced students remember words by their meaningC.it is difficult to remember words that sound alikeD.it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning24.The word “subject” in the passage means __________.A.the college course the students takeB.the theme of the listening materialC. a branch of knowledge studiedD.the student experimented on25.The passage centres on __________.A.memoryB.two kinds of memoryC.short-term memoryD.an experiment on studentsPassage ThreeEaster is probably the most important Christian holiday on the calendar because it commemorates Christ’s resurrection from the dead. Like many other religious holidays, though, Easter has incorporated many traditions from pagan beliefs and pre-Christian rites of seasonal regeneration.The word Easter has Indo-European roots and means “dawn”. This is a direct reference to the pagan goddess of dawn and new life. The egg, a symbol of Easter, is a sign of fertility which reflects ancient spring renewal rites and beliefs that have been absorbed into the Christian tradition. Even the Easter bunny who brings the eggs was the escort of the Germanic goddess Ostara, who had a holiday named after her that fell on the vernal equinox. This serves to underscore the pagan elements that still remain a part of this quintessential Christian holy day.In the United States, Easter is celebrated in several ways. On Easter morning children usually begin their day by looking for Easter eggs that the Easter bunny has hidden for them. Of course, most children know that the eggs were hidden by their parents, not the Easter bunny. In fact, many children help their parents color the Easter eggs, knowing that soon they will be eating them as a snack on Easter day. Some cities have Easter egg hunts at the local parks.Since Easter is always celebrated on Sunday, many people attend “Sunrise services” at their local church. In fact, more people go to church on Easter Sunday than at any other time of the year. Sunrise services begin very early in the morning, usually right about the same time as when the sun begins to rise, and last until almost noon. After church families gather and have a bigholiday feast.Easter also marks the coming of spring. People are usually happy that winter is over, so parks are usually full of people who want to get outside and enjoy the fresh air.26.Which of the following best defines EasterA.It is partially religious.B.It is a Christian holiday.C.It is purely a religious tradition.D.It is the most important Christian holiday.27.The Easter egg represents __________.A.springB.new lifeC.productivityD.Easter28.What is the main point of the third paragraphA.Children like eating eggs on Easter.B.Children help their parents on Easter.C.People participate in many activities on Easter.D. A lot of people go to church on Easter.29.The celebration of Easter does not include __________.A.eating Easter eggsB.hunting Easter eggsC.buying gifts for childrenD.having religious ceremonies30.Why do people go to parks on EasterA.Because spring is coming.B.Because it is part of the celebration.C.Because the air is fresh on that day.D.Because they feel free on that day.Passage FourOne of Britain’s few distinctive contributions to the world culture may be doomed, according to a survey that suggests holiday postcards are being emailed and texted extinction. More than half of the 1000 holiday-makers interviewed said they had decided to send fewer cards, turning instead to their electronic rivals. A quarter of the respondents dismissed postcards as old-fashioned and slow to arrive. A further 14% admitted that thinking of something to fill the space was too challenging, compared with a call home. Although officially invented by a Hungarian, Emanuel Herrmann, 1869, the idea of illustrated cards was taken up with most enthusiasm in Victorian Britain, joining Gothic architecture and landscape gardening as fields in which the country excelled. “If the British postcard did become extinct we would lose for ever something of great importance to the nation,” said Chris Mottershead of Thomson Holiday, which commissioned the poll Marie Angelou of Sussex University, who has investigated the importance of sending and receiving postcards, backed him. “Postcards are nothing like phone calls, instant texting and direct photo shots via mobile,” she said. “All these are useful, practical devices, but postcards offer something else, something additional that is not mundane and simply functional,but imaginative and personal. They can evoke the real atmosphere of our holiday in a way that nothing else can do. They’re also for more than a moment – with some people adding them to collections built up over years and years.” Postcard-collecting, or deltiology, is third only to coins and stamps in Britain’s allied tradition of collecting things. The country’s uniquely postcard-related achievements include the invention in 1902 of the “divided back”. With the address taking up half of the writing area, brief postcard scribes became the precursor to today’s cryptic text messages.31.Based on the survey, the conclusion is that __________.A.holiday postcards were not popular among those interviewedB.half of the British are thinking of quitting postcardsC.holiday postcards may have a gloomy futureD. a quarter of the interviewed threw away their postcards32.Which of the following is not a reason why people refuse to send cardsA.Sending cards is not fashionable.B.Sending cards is slow.C.It is difficult to think of something to write on the cards.D.It’s difficult to find a suitable card to send.33.According to the text, the significance of postcard is that it is one of those that _________.A.were invented by foreignersB.postcard has a long historyC.were Britain’s own creationD.Britain used to be proud of34.According to Marie Angelou, _________.A.postcards are totally different from phone calls, instant texting, etc.B.postcards don’t function as well as phone calls, instant texting, etc.C.postcards function better than phone calls, instant texting and the likeD.there is more to postcards than its practical functions35.What is not a reason why some people support cardsA.They can evoke the atmosphere of holiday.B.They are convenient.C.They can be collected.D.They are imaginative and personal.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points)Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.
