How about you?M: I' 11 probably just stay at home.Text 2M: I' m going to the beach this Sunday. Would you like to come?W: Oh, Sunday's a bit of a problem. Some of my friends are coming for a dinner at my place. What about Saturday?Text 3W: Mr. Baker, could I possibly use your phone? Ours doesn't work. Judy is ill, and I want to call a doctor.M: Sure. Come in. Hope everything's well with Judy.Text 4W: Congratulations, John! I heard about your new job.M: Thanks. It's nearly perfect for me. The working hours are convenient, and it's an easy walk from home. If only the pay were half as good as everything else!Text 5M: Kate, I' m going to a meeting tomorrow. Would you please help take my phone calls?W: No problem, Jim. I' 11 take a message if anyone calls.Text 6M: Excuse me. One ticket, please. Do you give students a discount?W: We do, but the museum will dose in twenty minutes. We stop selling tickets at 3: 30. It's 3:40 now.M: Could you possibly let me go in for a quick look? I can pay the fullprice.W: I' m sorry, I can't. And it's not really worth it because you won't be able to see everything within twenty minutes. You can come back tomorrow morning. The museum opens at nine o' clock.M: Well, in that case, I'll do what you say.Text 7W: Hi, tom. How are you?M: Hi, Jane. I' m fine. Listen, I plan to go swimming in the sports center this weekend. But it's a long way, and I haven't got my driver's license yet. How about us going together in your car? I'll buy the tickets.W: Well, it's great, but I've got homework to do.M: Come on! It doesn't matter that you go out for one afternoon.W: Oh, I really can't. Although I finished my book report, the upcoming mid-term exam really makes me nervous. I don't think I'd enjoy an outing now. Sorry, I can't drive you.M: Oh, don't worry. I can find someone else. Good luck with your exam !W: Thanks. See you!M: Bye!Text 8M: Hello. I'd like this guidebook, please. How much is it?W: All things are free here.M: Oh, thanks. I'll stay in the city for one week. Could you tell me whatplaces I should visit?W: Well, there are a lot. Are you interested in islands, such as Lantau?M: Islands?W: Yes. There are a lot of interesting things you can see--old villages and churches. And the scenery is beautiful. Take this booklet. It tells you more.M: Thank you very much. That's a great suggestion.W: You are welcome.Text 9W: Dr. Green, congratulations on the success of your new book! We learned that it has been translated into 30 languages--English, of course, French, German, Japanese, Chinese, and so on.M: Thanks, Helen.W: Well, could you tell us what this popular book is about?M: It's called In Praise of Slow : It' s about how the world got stuck in fast-forward, and how more and more people everywhere are slowing down. In other words, it's about the rise of the Slow Movement.W: What is the Slow Movement?M: It is a revolution against the idea that faster is always better. When I say "slow", I don't mean doing everything slowly.It's about doing everything as well as possible, instead of as fast as possible. It's about quality in everything we do.W: When and where was this "slow" idea born?M: It was born in the early 1990s in Italy. It began as the Slow Food Movement, which centered on food. More recently, "slow" has become popular worldwide.W: Have we reached the point of trying to speed up something that cannot really be sped up?M: Of course. The Internet connects us in wonderful ways, but it also leads us into trying to hurry up relationships. So you find people online saying they have more than 4,000 friends. The very idea of friendship is not considered important. And we may be losing the ability to make friends. In Britain, a study found that in the past ten years, the number of children who say they have no best friend rose from under one in eight to nearly one in five!Text 10Good morning, everyone. I' m pleased to be here to give a talk. We're two brothers from Canada, and we've been living in Thailand for eight years. We noticed that most English lessons here in schools focus only on reading and writing, so a lot of people can't understand and speak well in English. And we'd like to do something about it. Our idea is simple: we want to teach people how to understand and speak English like a native speaker. Different from broadcast English programs, we design special fun English programs based on the computer and use them to teach words and expressions we use in real life. We talk in a casual style on a number of interesting topics, and we share personal stories from our real lives. Now, we have over 200 units on our website. We make a new unit every week that you can listen to on your computer anytime you want. Our materials are from Englishmovies, TV shows, and real-life conversations. We hope people will use the materials to practice every day. We are sure that your English will improve a lot.第二部分阅读第一节短文理解参考译文Text 1这是一个学校、家庭作业、丰富的社交生活和兼职工作都会让青少年们从早上忙到深夜的时代。

2021年公共英语二级考试试题及答案（三）Businesses put lots of time and money into new plans, programs and excellent employees with the hope things will change. Yet, at the end of the effort, not much changes. What happensIn most cases, those new plans, programs and employees enter a company with an existing culture (文化). And plans, programs and new employees have a way of conforming to(顺应)the existing culture.

Most often, it is the mindset of the founder or people managing the business.The founder has gotten to where he is because of his skill sets, knowledge base and personal beliefs, which unfortunately all come with inherent (固有的)limits. Why Skills, knowledge and beliefs come from what he or she already knows or has experienced. In other words, it comes from the past. We ( people) try to make the past fit the future. Just because something worked in the past, doesn't mean it is suitable for the future.

Francis Chan, an engineer, lives in Hampstead, north London, in a flatthat's just 4ft wide by 21ft long. He loves it.Tiny though it is, it has got all the comforts. Peter Baynes, Chan’s architect (建筑师),has achieved a clever piece of design,according to architectural experts.The Chan mini-house was built on what was once a path down the side of a big Victarian house. Not an inch of space is wasted.When you step in through the front door, you're standing in the shower, on Britain' s only self-cleansing doormat (自动清洁门垫). A door opens on to an equally tiny toilet with washbasin. Two steps further in comes the kitchen, complete with full-sized cooker and fridge, and washer/ drier. A worktop folds down from the wall.Another step and you're into the dining/ office area. Four people can sit here for dinner, says Chan as he sets the table-top into place. He even has a fold-down drawing-board for when he' s working at home. The bed is hidden under a cover board right at the back. "I don't even have to make the bed,"Chan says. " I just put the cover down. "Chan's business suits hang neatly on the wall over the bed. Daylight comes in through the skylight. The housefeels like a very small boat and Chan admits he toyed with the idea of naming it the "boat-house"."It cost around ￡4,700 to build last year. Now it's been valued at ￡30,000. It proves that good design doesn't need to cost more. It just needs a lot of care." says Chan.44.By saying "It's not much" (line 1, para. 1),the author means that Chan' s flat______.A.is cheapB.has cheap furnitureC.has a simple designD.is fairly small45.Where is Chan' s flat?A.Next to a big housB.Under an old buildinC.In a busy London streeD.By the side of a country roa46.Which of the following is the right order of things described in the text?A.Shower, kitchen, toilet, dining table and beB.Shower, toilet, dining table, kitchen and beC.Shower, toilet, kitchen, dining table and beD.Shower, kitchen, toilet, bed and dining tabl47.What is the purpose of this writing?A.To sell Chan' s flat for more moneB.To tell people how to take care of small flatC.To introduce to readers a cleverly-designed flaD.To call on engineers to design their own homeDScientists say they now have proof to support the old-fashioned advice that it's best to sleep on a problem. They say sleep strengthens the memory and helps the brain organize the masses of information we receive each day.Lead researcher Bob Stickgold at the Harvard Medical School said, "Sleep helps us draw rules from our experiences. It's like knowing the difference between dogs and cats. even if it's hard to explain. "The US research team studied how well students remembered connections between words and symbols (象征) , reports New Scientist. They compared how the students performed if they had had a sleep between seeing the words and having the test, and if they had not slept. They found that people were better able to remember lists of related words after a night' s sleep than after the same time spent awake during the day. They also found it easier to remember themes (主题) that the words had in common. But they forgot around one in four more themes if they had been awake. Prof. John Groeger, of Surrey University's Sleep Research Centre, said, "People have been trying for years to fard out what the purpose of sleep is, as we know that only certain parts of it have a restorative (有助恢复的) value. "" We form and store huge numbers of experiences in the head every day, and sleep seems to be the way the brain deals with it all. "48.The phrase" to sleep on a problem" in Paragraph 1 most likely means to______.A.pay full attention to a problemB.wait until later for a decisionC.sleep to forget a problemD.have difficulty sleeping49.In the study by the US research team, students were asked to______.A.put together words of similar meaningsB.remember words and their meaningsC.show their knowledge of wordsD.make up lists of related words50.Which of the following may be easier to remember?A.Themes learned right before the tesB.Rules from personal experienceC.Words learnt before a good sleeD.Ideas stored together in the brai51.What may be the importance of the research?A.It shows sleep may help us manage imformatioB.It helps find out the common themes of wordC.It tells us that more sleep can improve healtD.It proves the value of old-fashioned adviceKEYS：40-45.CADADA 46-51 .CCBBCA2021年公共英语二级考试试题及答案（二）完型填空阅读下面短文,从短文后所给各题的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出能填入相应空白处的选项。

"We slept in our car for about a week," she said, "but then it was sold. "As she moved from one friend' s house to another, Carr began working toward a high-school-equivalence diploma(高中同等学历证书), listening to self-help tapes and making cheesecakes.After developing some new methods which she thought were pretty good, she offered her cakes to a restaurant. They sold out in a matter of hours.The following year, she met a man at a church service and before long, they married. Carr began selling the cheesecakes out of their home. Later she opened a cheesecake company. As business became better and better, Carr didn't forget where she came from.All the women she hires are mothers or high-school dropouts(退学者)--workers most other employers wouldn' t like to hire. Her dozen workers make 100 to 150 cakes a week and Carr owes her success to her employees. She says, "We're going to have a learning center and a day-care center in the company. Part of the workday will be spent studying for high-school-equivalence diplomas. "Recently, a 33-year-old woman with three children to raise was referred to Cart. She hired her at once. “It has been a real blessing (恩赐), ” the woman said.56. The text suggests that Lynn Carr[ A ] had to sell her car for a new one[ B ] had few friends to turn to for help[ C ] was once a school dropout herself[ D ] didn't work hard enough to keep her job57. Which of the following can be learned from the text?[ A ] People like Lynn Carr' s cheesecakes very much.[ B ] Lynn Carr' s cheesecakes are sold to high school dropouts.[ C ] Lynn Cart learned to make cheesecakes by taking courses.[ D ] Without finishing high school, one cannot even make good cakes.58. "Carr didn' t forget where she came from" (line 3, paragraph 3 ) means that Carr_______[ A ] remembered what she used to be[ B ] kept in mind her friends who had once helped her[ C ] would not forget where her hometown was[ D ] remembered all the places she had been to59. According to the last two paragraphs, Lynn Carr is trying[ A ] to turn her home into a learning center[ B ] to hire more moms and high school dropouts[ C ] to develop more new methods to make better cakes[ D ]1 to help people who have the familiar background as she did BThe banana "tree" is actually not a real tree. This is because there is no wood in the stem(树干) rising above the ground. The stem is made up of leaves growing very close together, one in-side the other. The leaves spread out at the top of the stem and rise in the air, Banana plants need a lot of care and attention. They must be provided with water if the normal rainfall doesn't supply enough. The area around the plants must be kept free of weeds(杂草) and grass.About nine or ten months after planting, a flower appears on the banana plant. This flower is at the end of a long stalk(茎), which grows from the base up through the center of the stem and turns downward when it comes out from the top. Small bananas form on this flower stalk as it grows downward. Bananas really grow upside down. As the small bananas form on the stalk, they point downward, but as they grow they turn and point upward.Bananas are harvested while they are still green, Even when they are to be eaten where they are grown, they are not allowed to ripen on the plant. A banana that turns yellow on the plant loses its taste."60. The first paragraph in the text mainly discusses_______________.[ A ] why the stem of the tree is wood[ B ] how the banana grows on the stem[ C ] why the banana tree is not a tree[ D ] how the leaves grow out of the stem61. The underlined word "it" ( line 3, paragraph 3) in the third paragraph refers to__________.[ A ] the leaf [ B ] the stalk [ C ] the stem [ D ]the plant62. According to the text, where do bananas actually grow ?[ A ] On the stem.[ B ] On the leaves.[ C ] On the flower stalk.[ D ] On the base of the stem.63. From the text we know when bananas are harvested, they are_____________.[ A ] green and pointing upward[ B ] yellow and pointing downward[ C ] green and pointing downward[ D ] yellow and pointing upwardCEveryone wants the best for a baby. A mother wants her baby to have the best in the way of food, toys, clothing and equipment. Her value judgements on prices may go wrong when it comes to buying for a baby, particularly the first one. Factory producers and advertisers(广告商) recognize this, and exploit it to the full. Far more is spent in buying push-chairs, special milk, and special powders for small babies than is necessary.The child himself watches television, a particularly strong influence ( 影响) on Small children. Looking at them as they watch television, and then watching them react to products afterwards, suggests that young children accept the television advertisements as well as the guidance offered by children' s programmes , and find both equally attractive. The child comes early in life to the feeling widespread in this country that if something is said on television it must be true.For this reason much Christmas gift advertising, and advertising for sweets, food and washing powders, is specially designed for children because of the effect their repeated nagging can have on their mothers. By exercising in this way they become consumers (消费者) at an early ageand as a result, with present-day pressures, choosing and buying goods and services will remain an important part of their future lives64. According to the writer, a mother spends more than necessary on___________.[ A ] Christmas advertising[ B ] special powders[ C ] television[ D ] sweets65. The underlined word "nagging" most probably means____________.[ A ] repeated demands[ B ] baby powders[ C ] TV services[ D ] children' s programmes66. Which of the following statements is best supported by the text?[ A ] Children like both TV advertisements and children' s programmes.[ B ] TV programmes often advertise the best products for children.[ C ] Mothers encourage children to buy products advertised on TV.[ D ] TV advertisements provide the best advice to choose gifts.67. The best title for the text could be____________.[ A ] Mothers and babies[ B ] Children as consumers[ C ] Giving the best to babies[ D ] Choosing goods for childrenDThe number of people in the world is growing. By the year 2,000 world population is expected to grow to 6.2 billion. The fastest growth is in developing countries, where there is already a shortage(短缺) of food, housing, and jobs. Africa is the fastest-growing part of the world. In Kenya, for example, the population will increase 10 times in the next 80 years.In Asia, a few countries have begun to reduce their population growth slowly, china still makes up about 21% of the world's population, butit has greatly slowed down its rate(速度) of growth. It is now growing at a rate of only 0.8% per year. In India, however, the population continues to grow, and it is expected to be even larger than the Chinese population by the year 2040.The population in India is growing three times faster than in Australia, Japan, and the developed countries in Europe. In fact, European people are more worried about population decrease(减少)than increase. Eastern European countries are growing at a rate of only about 1%.The best news is that, in general, population growth has slowed down from 2.08% in 1970 to 1.6% in 1985. At the present rate, the earliest that the world could reach zero population growth is 2040. At that time, there will probably be about 8 billion people in the world. It is possible, though, that the population might not really stop growing until much later. With people living longer, the number of elderly will have grown by 15% by that time. Nearly half of the world' s population will be living in cities. This is a situation that could cause a long list of other problems including pollution and a lack of food, water, housing, and jobs.68. Which of the following is the best title for the text?[ A ] Decrease of World Population[ B ] Population Growth Has Stopped[ C ] World Population?DA Look Into the Future[ D ] China' s Population?DOne Fifth of the World Population69. Among all the countries mentioned in the text, the one with the highest growth rate is_______.[ A ] India[ B ] China[ C ] Japan[ D ] Kenya70. People in European countries are more concerned about the fact that__________.[ A ] they do not have enough jobs for people[ B ] many people from the countryside come to live in the cities [ C ] the population in developing countries is not decreasing[ D ] their populations are falling71. Which of the following facts is best supported by the text?[ A ] There will be a number of problems in cities in the future.[ B ] The world population will stop growing in 2040.[ C ] 15 percent of the world population will be elderly people.[ D ] Kenya will have the biggest population in the world.EFILM PREVIEWSIn the Line of FireAfter his Oscar success as an aging cowboy in Unforgotten, Clint Eastwood plays an aging secret-service man in this action movie.

People from other countries know the names Washington, Kennedy and so on. However, many men who have served as President of the United States have not been famous in other parts of the world. One example is J.Q .Adams, the sixth man to serve as U.S.President.Very little happened while Adams was President. It was an unhappy time for him, and he wasn't very effective, when his term ended, he went back to the Congress and served as a representative sentative(众议院议员).

Whenever you come upon an unfamiliar word, first check to see if it has a recognizable root. If you know that the Latin root "ami" for example, means like or love, you can easily figure out that "amiable" means pleasant, friendly and "amorous" means loving. Even ff you cannot define a word exactly, recognizing the root will still give you a general idea of the word's meaning. Remembering thatthe Greek root "geo" means earth would certainly help you define "geophysics" as the physics of the earth, but it also might help you figure out that "geocentric" has to do with the center of the earth or with the earth as a center. Begin by studying the following lists of common Latin and Greek roots and representative words.The word "geochemistry" most probably means the chemistry of ______. A.the earth B.the moon C.the ocean D.the minerals9.The first tin coins were made ______.A.in ChinaB.in PhilippineC.in EnglandD.in countries of Africa10.Which of the following is true?A.Mr. Reese was luckier than the soldiers.B.Both Mr. Reese and the soldiers were out of luck.C.Nothing made Mr. Reese complain.D.The soldiers wanted to help Mr. Reese.二、2.英语知识运用(10题)11.【B18】A.containsB.containingC.containedD.having contained12.【B10】A.someB.suchC.lessD.no13.【B11】A.normalmonC.unusualD.quick14.【B4】A.materialsB.affairsC.mattersD.things15.
