Water heats up more slowly than land , but once it has become warm it takes longer to 31 down. If the Earth's surface were entirely land, the temperature at night would 32 quite quickly and night would be much colder than day. as it is on the moon. This does 33 happen in inland deserts, hundreds of mile from any sea .The climate of the continents , especially in the temperate 34 , is very much affected by the oceans around them. The areas close to the sea have a maritime climate, 35 rather cool summers and warm winter. The interiors, far from the sea, have a 36 climate with extremely hot summers and cold winters .Rain 37 from the evaporation of rivers, seas and lakes. Even after heavy rain , the pavements in a city do not take long to dry 38 the rainwater evaporates into the air. On a warm dry it evaporates very rapidly, 39 warm air can take in more moisture than cold air. But at any particular temperature, the 40 can hold only a certain maximum amount of water vapor. The air is then saturated, like a sponge that cannot hold 41 more water. The lower the temperature, the 42 water vapor is required to saturate the air.All over the surface of the Earth, minions of tons of water are 43 every second, condensing in the air into drops so small 44 it takes thousands of them to make a single raindrop. It is 45 drops that make clouds. When clouds roll in from the sea over the warmer land, they are forced to 46 and become cooler in the colder upper atmosphere. As the air cools down it pass through its saturation point and 47 some of its water vapor turns to rain. Day in ,day out, the 48 water circulates between the air and the land: rivers 49 to make clouds, clouds make rain, rainmakes rivers which in turn run into the sea. This is called the rain 50 .31.

I could have loved him as I did my mother, but he seemed to hold us off so that we could not approach him or sit on his knee as love to do. I believe he had a hard life as a child, and I know that he left school at the age of ten and started to work. This made him an unsociable man, unfriendly even to the people closest to him. I never knew him to have a close friend as the other men did.Everything he did had to be precise. If he chopped the sticks for the fire, each stick would be the same length and thickness as all the others, and they would all be stacked without one out of place. His motto(座右铭) was “If a thing is worth doing, it is worth doing well”. In our household his word was law and nobody dared dispute it.He worked hard when in a job and saw to it that we children learned the meaning of work. My mother did not have much pleasure but I do not remember her ever complaining – except on Sunday afternoons when father would take off his clothes and get into bed, leaving her to mend his working clothes while he had his rest. This she disliked very much, for the clothes were dirty from the work he had been doing and she hated handing anything that was not clean.51. The writer found it difficult to understand her father because he ___________.A. looked distantB. rejected affectionC. ill-treated the familyD. disliked children52. What did the writer think made her father unsociable?A. An unhappy childhood.B. A lack of friends.C. No interest in hobbies.D. Not smoking or drinking.53. What was particular about the sticks for the fire?A. They were arranged in a pattern.B. They were chopped in only one place.C. They were similar in length.D. They all weighed the same.54. The writer’s father believed that __________.A. you should only do things for which you have the abilityB. only important jobs are worth doing wellC. you should only attempt worthwhile jobsD. anything you do should be done to your best ability55. What did the writer’s mother dislike about Sunday afternoons?A. Working while her husband rested.B. Repairing her husband’s clothes.C. Not being able to have any pleasure.D. Touching unclean clothes.Passage 2Nonverbal communication has to do with gestures, movements, and closeness of two people when they are talking. The scientists say that these gestures, movements, and so forth have the meaning our words do not carry.For example, the physical distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are being “pushy” because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, whereas the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to. In the Middle East it is considered flirtatious(调情) for a woman to allow a man to look at her in the eye. This “eye contact”provides another example of what we’re calling nonverbal communication. A social psychologist has observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who don’t like each other. The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in you rather than the amount of interest he has in the thing you are talking about.56. Nonverbal communication includes all forms listed below except ________.A. gesturesB. body distanceC. talksD. eye contact57. While talking, the South Americans tend to _________.A. talk loudlyB. be close to each otherC. keep a certain distance between themD. push each other58. While they are talking, the North Americans tend to ________ .A. talk loudlyB. be close to each otherC. keep a certain distance between themD. be cold59. It would be considered ________ in the Middle East, if a woman allows a man to look at herin the eye.A. politeB. impoliteC. acceptableD. unacceptable60. More eye contacts may indicate all of the following except that ________.A. people like each otherB. people are interested in the topicC. people are interested in each otherD. people want to keep talking五. Translate the following sentences into English.61. 既然你不能回答这个问题，我们最好问问别人。

Mr is used before the names of men. Mrs is for married women and Miss is for single women. But what is Ms?For some time, businessmen in the United States have used Ms before a woman’s name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not. Today, however, many women prefer to use Ms rather than Mrs or Miss. The word Mr doesn’t tell us whether or not a man is married . Many women think this is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that it is not important for people to know whether they are married or not.There are some problems with Ms, however. Not all women like it. Some like the older ways of doing things. Some find it difficult to pronounce. (Ms sounds like “miz”.) Generally, young women like it better than older women do. It is difficult to know whether or not Ms will be used by more American women in the future. What do you think of this change?（C）1.The word Ms is used before the name of ________.A.A married womanB. An unmarried womanC. Any womanD. Any person（C） 2.Ms was first used_________.A.By shopkeepersB. Among young womenC.

They show that he was learning Latin, was very interested in the basics of good behavior in society, and was reading English literature.At school he seemed only to have been interested in mathematics. In fact his formal education was surprising brief fore a gentleman, and incomplete. For unlike other young Virginian gentlemen of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamburg. In terms of formal training then, Washington Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training.

Before 1889 there were just a few farms in the area. When the colliery opened men came with their families from England to work in it. The mining company built houses for them to live in. In those days nearly all the men in the village were coal miners. Now, many of the people of Six Bells have to find jobs in the large towns nearby, because there is not much coal left. It is a very friendly village where everyone knows each other and most families have relatives nearby.In a mining village everyone is afraid of one thing : an accident at the pit. In 1960 there was a terrible disaster in Six Bells when there was a gas explosion underground.Mining is still a dirty and dangerous job, but the life of a miner is better than it was and miners now earn quite a lot of money. But there are still problems for small mining villages. For example, it is quite difficult to get to Six Bells. There are no passenger trains and the buses are very expensive. Most families in the village have a car and have to drive to the new supermarkets for their weekly shopping.Many people in the village are worried about the future. They are asking, “ What is going to happen to the village when there is no more coal in the mine? Will the village die? ”（A） 11.Six Bells Colliery opened________.A.In the year 1889B. After 1889C.

Does the supermarket decide?When you enter the supermarket, you see shelves full of food. You walk in the aisles between the shelves. You push a shopping cart and put your food in it.You probably hear slow music as you walk along the aisles if you hear fast music, you walk quickly. The supermarket plays slow music. You walk slowly and have more time to buy things.Maybe you go to the meat department first. There is some meat on sale, and you want to find it. The manager of the supermarket knows where customers enter the meat department. The cheaper meat is at the end of the meat department, away from where the customers enter. You have to walk by all the expensive meat before you find the cheaper meat. Maybe you will buy some of the expensive meat instead of the meat on sale.The dairy department sells milk and milk products such as butter and cheese. Many customers like milk that has only a little butterfat in it. One store has three different containers of low fat milk. One says "I percent (1%)" fat on the container. The second says "99 percent (99%) fat free". The third says "Low Fat" in big letters and "1%' in small letters. As you can see, all the milk has the same amount of fat. The milk is all the same. The amount of milk in each container is also the same. However in this store the three containers of milk cost three amount of money. Maybe the customer will buy the milk that costs the most.51. The manager knows _____________.A. which customers like low fat milkB. which customers like slow musicC. where customers enter the meat departmentD. where customers come from52. When you walk by the expensive meat _____________.A. maybe you will buy someB. maybe you will buy low fat meatC. you will look for the fresh fruitD. you will walk on the shelves53.

Some scientists think that one day animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs that are now done by human beings. They point out that at a circus, for example, we may see elephants, monkeys, dogs and other animals doing quite skillful things. Perhaps you have seen them on the television or in a film. If you watch closely, you may notice that the trainer always gives the animal a piece of candy or a piece of fruit as a reward. The scientists say that many different animals may be trained to do a number of simple jobs if they know they will get a reward for doing them. Of course, as we know, dogs can be used to guard a house, and soldiers in both old and modern times have used geese to give warning by making a lot of noise when a stranger or an enemy comes near. But it may be possible to train animals to work in factories. In Russia, for example, pigeons which are birds with good eyesight, are being used to watch out for faults in small steel balls that are being made in one factory. When the pigeon sees a ball which looks different from others, it touches a steel plate with its beak. This turns on a light to warn people in the factory. At the same time a few seeds are given as a reward. It takes three to five weeks to train a pigeonto do this and one pigeon can inspect 3000 to 4000 balls an hour. Apes have been used in America in helping to make cars, and scientists believe that these large monkeys maybe one day gather crops and even drive trains.56. What made scientists think animal can be made to work for us one day?_______.A. Animals are very skillful at a circusB. They are big and strongC. Some animals are as clever as human beingsD. Animals can be trained because they like to get something as a reward57. The trainer usually gives the animal a piece of candy or fruit_______.A. when it is hungryB. before it plays a trickC. When it starts to play a trickD. after it has done the trick58. The "reward" in the passage means_______.A. an honor given for doing somethingB. money paid for doing somethingC. attention paid to good conductD. something given in return for work59. Many animals may be trained to do simple jobs if they know_______.A. Who their trainers areB. they will be praised by their trainersC. they will get a rewardD. something dangerous will happen to them60. Which of the following is not true?_______.A. Scientists consider apes may drive trains some dayB. Apes have worked in some factoriesC. Apes may one day be used to gather cropsD. An ape is not a large monkey五．Translate the following sentences into Chinese.61. 每学期开学前，这些奖学金的申请表格就会由学校发给每一个学生。

Soon she became his girl friend. The man was very poor while the girl was rich. The young man wanted to send her a present on her birthday. He wanted to buy something beautiful for her, but he had no idea how to do it, as he had very little money. The next morning he went to a shop. There were many fine things there: rings, gold watches, diamonds—but all these things were too expensive. There was one thing he could not take his eyes off. It was a beautiful vase. That would be a wonderful present for his girl friend. He had been looking at the vase for half an hour when the manager asked what had happened to him.The young man told him everything. The manager felt sorry for him and decided to help him.A brilliant idea struck him. The manager pointed to the corner of the shop. To his great surprise the young man saw a vase broken into many pieces. The manager said, “I can help you. I shall order my servant to pack it and take it to your girl friend. When he enters the room, he will drop it.”On the birthday of his girl friend, the young man was very excited. Everything happened as had been planned. The servant brought in the vase, and as he entered the room, he dropped it. There was horror on everybody’s face. When the vase was unpacked, the guests saw that each piece was packed separately.31.

Who do you think packed each piece separately? BA. The managerB. The servantC. The girlD. The young manPassage TwoNonverbal communication has to do with gestures, movements, and closeness of two people when they are talking. The scientists say that these gestures, movements, and so forth have the meaning our words do not carry.For example, the physical distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are being “pushy” because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, whereas the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to. In the Middle East it is considered flirtatious(调情) for a woman to allow a man to look at her in the eye. This “eye contact”provides another example of what we’re calling nonverbal communication. A social psychologist has observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who don’t like each other. The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in you rather than the amount of interest he has in the thing you are talking about.36. Nonverbal communication includes all forms listed below except __C______.A. gesturesB. body distanceC. talksD. eye contact37. While talking, the South Americans tend to ___B______.A. talk loudlyB. be close to each otherC. keep a certain distance between themD. push each other38. While they are talking, the North Americans tend to ____C____ .A. talk loudlyB. be close to each otherC. keep a certain distance between themD. be cold39. It would be considered ____D____ in the Middle East, if a woman allows a man to look at her in the eye.A. politeB. impoliteC. acceptableD. unacceptable40. More eye contacts may indicate all of the following except that __B______.A. people like each otherB. people are interested in the topicC. people are interested in each otherD. people want to keep talking四．Translate the following sentences into English.(15 points)41. 杰克才开始工作了三个月，经验尚不足，所以让他独立完成这项任务是有困难的。

离线作业考核《大学英语（一）》满分：100分一、阅读理解题（每小题2分，共30分。

）Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions.For each questions there are four choices marked A,B,C,and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Almost everyone knows the meaning of Mr. Mrs and Miss. Mr is used before the names of men. Mrs is for married women and Miss is for single women. But what is Ms?For some time, businessmen in the United States have used Ms before a woman’s name when they do not know whether the woman is married or not. Today, however, many women prefer to use Ms rather than Mrs or Miss. The word Mr doesn’t tell us whether or not a man is married . Many women think this is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that is an advantage for men. They want to be equal to men in this way. These women feel that it is not important for people to know whether they are married or not.There are some problems with Ms, however. Not all women like it. Some like the older ways of doing things. Some find it difficult to pronounce. (Ms sounds like “miz”.) Generally, young women like it better than older women do.

For unlike other young Virginian gentlemen of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamburg. In terms of formal training then, Washington Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training.

Before 1889 there were just a few farms in the area. When the colliery opened men came with their families from England to work in it. The mining company built houses for them to live in. In those days nearly all the men in the village were coal miners. Now, many of the people of Six Bells have to find jobs in the large towns nearby, because there is not much coal left. It is a very friendly village where everyone knows each other and most families have relatives nearby.In a mining village everyone is afraid of one thing : an accident at the pit. In 1960 there was a terrible disaster in Six Bells when there was a gas explosion underground.Mining is still a dirty and dangerous job, but the life of a miner is better than it was and miners now earn quite a lot of money. But there are still problems for small mining villages. For example, it is quite difficult to get to Six Bells. There are no passenger trains and the buses are very expensive. Most families in the village have a car and have to drive to the new supermarkets for their weekly shopping.Many people in the village are worried about the future. They are asking, “ What is going to happen to the village when there is no more coal in the mine? Will the village die? ”11.Six Bells Colliery opened____A____.A.In the year 1889B. After 1889C.

(阅读理解题)Passage 1Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Ours is a big world, and full of many different people. People with many varying (不同的) points of view are often running up against others who have different opinions. Those of us who smoke are just one group of many. Recently, the activism (采取行动) of non-smokers has reminded us of the need to be considerate (体谅的) of others when we smoke in public.But, please! Enough is enough! We should like to remind non-smokers that being polite is a two-way street. If you politely request thatsomeone not smoke you are more likely to receive an agreeable response than if you give an ugly look and say something unkind. If you speak directly to someone, you are more likely to get what you want than if you complain to the management.Many of us have been smoking for so long that we sometimes forget that others are not used to the smell of burning tobacco. We' re human, and like everyone else, we occasionally offend unknowingly. But most of us are open to friendly suggestions and comments, and quite willing to change our behavior to accommodate others.Smokers are people, too. We laugh and cry. We have hopes, dreams, and aspirations. We have children, mothers, and pets. We eat our hamburgers with everything on them and give respect to the flag at Fourth of July picnics. We hope you'll remember that the next time a smoker light up in public.(1).

(阅读理解题)Passage 2Nature has supplied every animal except man with some covering for his body such as fur, feathers, hair, seals, shells or a thick hide. But man has nothing but a thin skin. If someone were to ask us, "Why did human beings start to cover their bodies with clothes?" most of us would answer, "To keep themselves warm, of course."It is only when we begin to think about it a little that we realize that clothes are worn for a great many reasons that have nothing to do with our need for warmth at all. For instance, we wear clothes to some extent in order to decorate ourselves -- to make ourselves, if possible, look more graceful or dignified (高贵的) than we are.Clothes of a special kind are often worn to show that the wearer has authority or power. The individual wearing them is treated with respect because he occupies a certain office. The judge in the court, for instance, might look a very ordinary and unimpressive figure without his wig (假发) and gown. Clothes are an essential part of all ceremonial occasions, whether it is connected with religion, the law, parliament, royalty, the fighting forces, or the state.Sometimes, even in civilized countries, people wear some article of clothing, or some jewel, because they believe that it will bring them luck or protect them from evil or illness, or because it is connected with their beliefs.None of these reasons for wearing clothes — to decorate ourselves, to show our position in the world, for ceremonial purposes, for "luck", to give ourselves dignity and authority — have anything to do with our need for warmth and protection from the weather.(1).
