Comprehension(60 points)Directions：There are five reading passages in this part．Each passage is followed by four questions．For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B，C and D．Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet．Passage OneBefore the conference began，a Japanese businessman was introduced to an American businessman at the lounge．The Japanese businessman，arms extending downwards from his shoulders，bowed from his waist toward the American businessman to whom he was just introduced．His eyes were directed ahead，his face showed no particular expression．The American businessman stood straight．His eyes focused on the Japanese man’S eyes．He smiled and put out his right hand．Both men smiled briefly in embarrassment．The Japanese man straightened up and put out his right hand．The American withdrew his hand and bowed his head．A broader smile of embarrassment．and some noise from each man-not really words，just some sounds from their throats-indicating discomfort．They were in the course of a conflict of customs；they had different habits for greeting people they were being introduced to．When people are planning to go to another country,they expect to encounter certain kinds of differences．They usually expect the weather and the food to be different．They expect to find differences in some of the material aspects of life，such as the availability of cars，electricity，and home heating systems.And，without knowing the details，they expect differences in customs．Customs are thebehaviors that are generally expected in specific situations．American men，for example，shake hands with each other when first introduced while Japanese men bow．36．When introduced to the Japanese businessman，the American businessman put Out his right hand because____．A．he felt a little bit nervousB．he wanted to express his discomfortC．he felt a little offended by the Japanese manD．he wanted to shake hands with the Japanese man37．The two businessmen behaved differently because____．A．they followed their own greeting customsB．they were not used to the strange atmosphereC．they couldn’t speak each other’ S languageD．they had never met each other before38．Paragraph 4 tells us that when visiting a foreign country,____.A．it is very uncommon for one to encounter embarrassing situationsB．it is hard for one to adapt to the material aspects of life thereC．people often expect tO meet differences in customsD．people expect the same kind of food and weather39．This passage is mainly about____．A．cultural invasion B．the understanding of customsC．business talks D．differences in handshakesPassageTwoMr．Leonard，the principal of the Bedford Academy High School in Bedford-Stuyvesant，Brooklyn，is a man of many solutions，many of them creative，many of them，apparently, also effective．In New York City, only about 50 percent of students manage to graduate in four years．At Bedford Academy 63 percent of the students qualify for free lunch，a majority of which are being raised by a single mother andanother significant number are being raised by someone other than a parent．Yet close to 95 percent of students graduate，and actually every one of those goes on to college．Mr．Leonard does not achieve those results by admitting only high-testing students into his school．Of the students arriving with lower test scores，Mr．Leonard says that he is not looking for the students with the highest grades，or even the best behavior．He’ S looking for the ones who understand his basic mission of discipline and respect，and are willing to devote themselves to his regular training course．The Bedford Academy High School is famous for its autonomy．For Mr．Leonard，autonomy means insisting that all entering students spend their Saturday mornings in preparatory classes the summer before they enroll．Autonomy also means an automatic weeklong suspension for any student who “disrespects a female，”said Mr．Leonard．It means requiring struggling students，in the weeks before the Regents exams，to attend studying sessions on Saturday from 9 a．m．until 9 p．m．It means the most senior, experienced teachers，including Mr．Leonard，teach not the school’S academic jewels，but the most struggling students．And au tonomy also means the school’ S teachers administer almost no homework．Instead they emphasize after-school tutoring where the teachers Can keep a better eye on whether the student is actually grasping the material．40．In Mr．Leonard’S school，most ofthe st udents who don’t have to pay for lunch____．A．are adopted children B．are parentlessC．are homeless D．have a single parent41．What can be a good indication of the Bedford School’ s success?A．63 percent of its students go on to college.B．A high percentage of students enjoy free lunch.C．All the graduates from the school go on to college.D．The number of its graduates is twice that of New York High School42．What does Mr．Leonard expect from those low-testing students?A．The highest scores．B．The best behaviour.C．Respectfulness and discipline．D．Willingness to learn by themselves.43．The school insists that students should____．A．leave the school if they fail to respect a womanB．attend the preparatory classes in the summer before enrollingC．do their homework to review what they have learnedD．come to the school on SundaysPassage ThreePeople joke that no one in Los Angeles reads；everyone watches TV, rents videos，or goes to the movies．The most popular reading material is comic books，movie magazines，and TV guide s．City libraries have only 10 percent of the traffic that car washes have．But how do you explain this? An annual book festival in west Los Angeles is flourishing year after year．People wait half an hour for a parking space to become available．This outdoor festival，sponsored by a newspaper，occurs every April for one weekend. This year’ s attendance was estimated at 70，000 on Saturday and 75，000 on Sunday．The festival consisted of 280 exhibitors．There were about 90 talks given by authors，with an audience question-and-answer period foilowing each talk．Autograph(亲笔签名)seekers sought out more than 150 authors.A food court sold all kinds of popular food and diverse foreign foods，from American hamburgers to Hawaiian shave ice drinks．Except for a $7 parking fee，the festival was free．Even so，some people avoided the food court prices by staying away and having their own sandwiches and drinks.People came from all over California．One couple drove down from San Francisco．“This is our sixth year here now．We love it，”said the husband．“It’s just fantastic to be in the great outdoors，to be mnong so many books and authors，and to get some very good deals，too．”The idea for the festival occurred years ago，but nobody knew if it would succeed．Although book festivals were already popular in other US cities，would Los Angeles residents welcome one?“The citizens of the city are very unpredictable，”said one of the festival founders．44．The underlined sentence in the first paragraph implies that____．A．city libraries have a very limited number of readersB．only a small proportion of the readers go to libraries by carC．city libraries provide fewer places for Car washesD．city libraries have fewer parking places45．The outdoor book festival attracts____．A．autograph seekers and authors onlyB．people with different interestsC．people who love Los AngelesD．people who like cooking46．At the very beginning，people were____ about the idea for the book festival in Los Angeles.A．confident B．pessimisticC．uncertain D．indifferent47．The success of Los Angeles book festival shows that____．A．book reading is still popular in Los AngelesB．Los Angeles people prefer library to book festivalC．people attend the book festivals for fun not for readingD．libraries should have food courts to attract more readersPassage FourHave you ever been afraid to talk back when you were treated unfairly? Have you ever bought something just because the salesman talked you into it? Are you afraid to ask someone for a date?Many people are afraid to assert themselves(坚持己见)．Dr．Robert Alberti，author of Stand Up, Speak Out，and Talk Back, thinks it’s because of their lack of confidence．“Our structure of organizat ion tends to make people distrust themselves．”says Alberti．“There’s always a‘superior’around-a parent，a teacher，a boss-who‘knows better’．These‘superiors’often gain when they keep breaking at yourself-image．”But Alberti and other scientists are doing something to help people assert themselves．Theyoffer“assertiveness training”courses-AT for short．In the AT course people learn that they have a right to be themselves．They learn to speak out and feel good about doing so．They learn to be aggressive without hurting people．In one way, learning to speak out is to overcome fear．A group taking an AT course will help the shy person to lose his fear．But AT uses an even stronger motive-the need to share．The shy person speaks out in the group because he wants to tell how he feels．Whether or not you speak up for yourself depends on your self-image．If someone you face is more“important”than you，you may feel less of a person．You start to doubt your own good sense．You go by the other person’ s label．But，why should you?AT says you can get to feel good about yourself．And once you do，you can learn to speak out．48．People are reluctant to talk back because____．A．they have a poor self-imageB．they have not received AT coursesC．they have not grasped communication skillsD．they are not generous enough to share things49．According to Dr．Alberti，our organization is constructed to____．A．get people to trust their own solutions to problemsB．keep people as knowledgeable as their“superiors”C．train people’ s cap acity to speak up for their rightsD．make things more favorable for“superiors”50．One of the objectives of AT courses is to____．A．train people to trust othersB．encourage people to share their thoughtsC．tell people of their right to be“superiors”D．help people overcome their fear of asserting themselves51．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Protect Yourself B．Try to Speak OutC．Share Your Opinion D．Face Your SuperiorPassage FiveA wind tunnel is used for testing planes or plane models．In a wind tunnel air is blown over a plane ora model placed in a test section．Wind tunnel test sections are different in size depending on airflow speed requirements．Some low-speed tunnels have test sections large enough for a complete small plane．In the very high speed tunnels used for space testing，however，the model may be as small as a pencil．There are two ways of feeding air to the test section．In the constant flow tunnel，airflow produced by electric fans is forced through the tunnel to the test section，then through another tunnel section back to the starting point for reuse．The other way involves storing high-pressure air in a box，sending it out by a controlling device to pass through the tunnel and test section into another box．This way is usually used for a very short period of high-speed airflow．Wind tunnels are usually used to test planes before they are flown．Problems in a plane carl be found when it meets the high-speed airflow in the tunnel．For example，if the wings are built so that they would weaken at high speeds，this fact can be discovered in the tunnel，thus saving many lives and millions of dollars．In a wind tunnel，scientists also find out how different planes will act at different speeds．They find out such things as how the air dives by the wing surfaces，how slowly a plane can fly before it starts to drop，and howfastit can climb．52．Some wind tunnel sections are larger than others because____．A．they are used for large planes B．they can produce a stronger windC．they are built to conduct a high-speed test D．the air in them flows at a lower speed53．The underlined words“this fact”in Paragraph 3 refer to the fact that____．A．it costs a lot to test a planeB．the wings are not good enoughC．some problems are found with a planeD．the wings meet the high-speed air flow in the tunnel54．As mentioned in the last paragraph，a wind tunnel can be used to find out____.A．how fast a plane can rise B．how smooth a plane’s sur face isC．how a plane lands in a strong wind D．how a plane drops at a low height55．What can we learn from the passage?A．It is very expensive to build a wind tunnel．B．Wind tunnels are very essential in testing planes．C．Scientists still have a lot to learn about wind tunnels．D．There are new ways to feed air to the test section．V．Daily Conversation(15 points)Directions：Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogues by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A．I miss you，too B．It’ a niceC．Oh，come on D．for the worldE．Sounds as if F．in the worldG．To tell you the truth H．I can’ t waitJohn：Hi，Kim．I haven’t seen you for ages．How are you?Kim：I’m f ine．thanks．I moved house recently,so I’ve been very busy．John：56____ you need a rest! Listen，I’m having a Halloween party on Saturday night．Would you like to come?Kim：It's very good of you to ask me．but I’m too busy．I still have a lot to do in the house．John：57 !Everybody needs a break now and then．Kim：Yes，you are right．58____，I’m geeing a bit fed up with it! When does your party start?John：Around 8：00’clock in the evening．Kim：Sounds great! 59____．John：OK!

这个音标表示了一个元音和两个辅音字母的组合。

我们可以看到，第一个和最后一个音标都是元音[æ]，它位于辅音 [m] 的中间。

所以，正确的发音应该是[ælm] 或[ælmər]，因为 [ər] 通常用来表示单词结尾时的清晰度或者加强单词的重音。

It is well known that smoking is harmful to one's health. However, a new study suggests that smokers who quit by the age of 40 can actually live as long as non-smokers.The benefits of quitting smoking are not limited to increasing lifespan. Quitting smoking can also greatly reduce the risk of developing smoking-related diseases such as lung cancer, heart disease, and stroke. In addition, quitting smoking can improve overall quality of life by reducing coughing, shortness of breath, and improving sense of taste and smell.In conclusion, quitting smoking at any age can have significant positive effects on health and lifespan. However, quitting smoking early,especially before the age of 40, can lead to the same lifespan as non-smokers.问题：1. What does the new study suggest about smokers who quit by the age of 40?答案：The new study suggests that smokers who quit by the age of 40 can live as long as non-smokers.2. 完形填空题完形填空题阅读下面短文，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。

During this voyage the explorer met a lot of resistance(抵抗)from the local Indians . In one particular tribe the women fighter were so fierce that they drove their male fighter in front of them with spears. Thus the river the was named after the famous women fighters of the ancient Great stories. the Amazons.This voyage also started our wonder of the greatest river and the largest area of rainforest on the world.About 20% of all freshwater carried to the oceans is from the Amazon River. The Amazon basin is the world's largest,about the size of Europe. The river is a product of the rainy season, which brings huge rains every summer. This also produces a large area of rainforest, which supports the largest number of diverse plants and animals of any area in the world.The Amazon rainforest is also important when it comes to the future of global warming, as it is a huge natural store of carbon. Up until recently it was thought that the Amazon had fully grown and thus could not take up any moreCO2.Experimentshave shown this could he wrong and that the Amazon rainforest might be sucking up an additional five tons of co2 from the atmosphere per hectare(公顷)per year. This is because plants react favorably to increased CO2;because its the raw material for photosynthesis(光合作用),the more of it the better. So having more CO2 in the atmosphere acts like a fertilizer, stimulating plant growth. Because of the size of the Amazon rainforest, it seems that presently itis taking up a large percentage of our CO2 pollution in the atmosphere, about 75%of the world's car pollution.48.After whom the Amazon River named?A.The Indian women fighters.B.The head of an Indian tribe.C.The first explorer of the river.D.The woman fighters'in ancient creak stories.49.Why is CO2 compared to a fertilizer in pare?A.They both absorb light.B.They store heat.C They both help plants grow.D.They both cause global warming.9.Which of the following statement is true?A.The Amazon basin is the largest in the worldB.The Amazon River causes huge rains every summerC.The Amazon rainforest supports about 20%of the worldsD.The Amazon River carries75%of the world's water to oceans51.What is implied in the last paragraph?A.The Amazon forest may disappear soonB.The Amazon may take up more CO2 in the futureC.The size of the Amazon basin may become smallD.People may change the name of the Amazon River第五篇The AIDA model is the foundation of modern marketing andadvertising practice. It out cines the four basic stepsthat can be used to persuade potential to make a purchase. The first three steps lie in creatingattention(A)derecoping interest(i),and buildingdesire(D)for the product,before the fourth step-the”call toaction"(A)-tells them exactly how and where to buy .AIDA can channel the customer's feelings through each stage of the communicationprocess toward reaching a sale.Attracting the customer's attention is the first challenge and this maybe achieved by using an attracting phrase.Offering adiscount of some thing for free, or demons Hating how a problem Lan be solved. Once someone's attention has been seized, it must beturned into read interest,This is best done by providing a briefdescription of the product's benefits to the consumer rather than simply listing the product's mainfeatures,problem-solving claims, or that desire to be met the means to buy,on website advertising. This might be a direct link,on TV or print ,it may be a website or telephone number.In the movie industry, the stages of AIDA are used to greateffect.

2024年成人高考成考英语(高起本)模拟试题与参考答案一、语音知识（本大题有5小题，每小题2分，共10分）1、Listen to the following words and choose the one whose underlined part is pronounced differently from the others:A. dropB. sportC. workD. wordAnswer: CExplanation: In this option, the underlined part is pronounced /ɜːr/, while in the other options, it is pronounced /ɔː/ or /ɑː/ depending on the context.2、Choose the word whose underlined part has a different pronunciation from the others:A. withB. thickC. richD. witherAnswer: DExplanation: The underlined part in “thick” and “rich” is pronounced /ɪ/, while in “with” and “wither,” it is pronounced /ɪ/. The difference lies in the “th” in “wither,” which changes the pronunciation to /iː/.3、Listen to the following sentences and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the rest:A. catB. canC. carD. cartAnswer: B (can)Explanation: The other words are all pronounced with the “k” sound at the beginning. The word “can” has the “k” sound before the “an” vowel combination, but it’s not pronounced as a separate “k” sound.4、Choose the sentence that contains an example of the schwa sound:A. She has a cat.B. It is a small cat.C. The cat is beautiful.D. With a cat in the room.Answer: B (It is a small cat)Explanation: The schwa sound is represented by the symbol əand is a weak vowel sound. In option B, the word “is” is pronounced with a schwa sound, which is characteristic of the schwa. The other sentences don’t contain an example ofthe schwa sound.5、Listen to the following sentence and choose the word that is pronounced differently from the others.A. appleB. bananaC. catD. fatherAnswer: CExplanation: The words “apple,” “banana,” and “father” are all pronounced with a short /æ/ sound. The word “cat,” however, is pronounced with a long /æ/ sound. Therefore, “cat” is the word that is pronounced differently.二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1、The conference will be held in the auditorium____all the sports stars are expected to attend.A. whereB. whichC. thatD. asAnswer: A. whereExplanation: “Where” is used here as a relative adverb to introduce a non-restrictive relative clause. In this context, “where all the sports starsare expected to attend” describes the location of the auditorium. The use of “which” or “that” would make the clause restrictive, which is not requiredin this sentence.2、Despite the heavy rain, the workers___on time for the site meeting.A. had comeB. comeC. cameD. were comingAnswer: C. cameExplanation: “Came” is the past tense of the verb “to come,” fitting the past tense context of the sentence. “Had come” and “were coming” suggesta past perfect and continuous aspect, which is not required in this context. “Come” is th e simple present tense, which does not match the past tense indicator in the beginning of the sentence.3、Choose the word that does not belong in the following list:a)translate b) eventual c) elect d) renovateAnswer: c) electExplanation: The word “elect” is the odd one out because it means “choose” or “select,” whereas the other words are all related to the process of changing or transferring something. “Translate” means to convert words from one language to another, “eventual” refers to an outcome that wi ll happen eventually, and “renovate” means to repair, update, or improve something.4、Choose the correct past participle form of the verb in parentheses:The students__________(visit) the museum on the weekend.a)visited b) has visited c) having visited d) will visitAnswer: a) visitedExplanation: The correct past participle to use with the modal verb “have” and the past tense of the verb “visit” is “visited.” Therefore, the correct sentence is “The students visited the museum on the weekend.” Options b) and d) are incorrect because “has visited” is the present perfect tense and “will visit” is the future simple tense. Option c) “having visited” is incorrect as it seems to suggest an ongoing action, while the sentence is about a completed action.5、Choose the correct word to complete the sentence:The speaker was___________by the audience, who cheered and applauded enthusiastically.A)ignoredB)admiredC)appreciatedD)overwhelmedAnswer: D) overwhelmedExplanation: The context of the sentence suggests that the speaker was positively affected by the audience’s reaction. “Overwhelmed” means to be affected emotionally in a very strong way, often with feelings of excitement or happiness. The other options do not fit the context as well: “ignored” means not paid attention to, “admired” means regarded with respect or approval, and“appreciated” means to be grateful for or to recognize the value of something.6、Complete the sentence with the correct form of the verb in parentheses: Although the weather was terrible, the marathon runners___________(be) determined to finish the race.A)areB)wereC)isD)were beingAnswer: B) wereExplanation: The sentence describes an action that happened in the past. The phrase “Although the weather was terrible” sets the scene, and the main clause “the marathon runners” is referring to people who were running in the past. Therefore, the correct form of the verb to use is the past simple tense, “were.” The other options are incorrect because “are” is the present simple tense, “is” is the singular present tense, and “were being” is the past continuous tense, which does not fit the context of the sentence.7、He was told not to go abroad. As a result, he .A) has decided to stayB) decided to stayC) will decide to stayD) decides to stayAnswer: B解析：本题考查时态。

Reading Comprehension (40 points)Section A: Multiple Choice (30 points)Directions: There are 3 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Passage 1.The world is not only hungry, but it is also thirsty for water. This may seem strange to you, since nearly 75% of the earth's surface is covered with water. But about 97% of that is sea water, or salt water. Man can only drink and use the other 3% - the fresh water that comes from rivers, lakes, underground, and other sources. And we can't even use all of that, because some of it is in the form of icebergs and glaciers. Even worse, some of the fresh water is polluted.However, as things stand today, this small amount of fresh water, which is constantly being replaced by rainfall, is still enough for us. But our need for water is increasing rapidly - almost day by day. We all have to learn how to stop wasting our precious water. One of the first steps is to develop ways of reusing it.Today, in most large cities, water is used only once and then sent out into a sewer system. From there it goes to the sea or runs into underground storage tanks. But it is possible to pipe used water to a purifying plant. There it can be treated with chemicals so that it can be used again, just as if it were fresh from a spring.But even if every large city purified and reused its water, we still would not have enough. All we'd have to do is to make use of the vast reserves of sea water in the world. If we can find a cheap way to get rid of the salt, we would have all the water that we could ever need.35. The world is thirsty for water because ______.A. man hasn't got enough food to eat.B. we can't use all of the water covering the earth's surface.C. only 75% of the earth's surface is covered with water.D. more water is sent into sewer systems.36. The underlined word "purifying" in the third paragraph means"______".A. freezingB. heatingC. cleaningD. mixing.37. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. We can drink the sea water after getting rid of the salt.B. Some fresh water is polluted.C. Man's need for water is getting greater and greater.D. There are ways to reuse water.38. To solve the water problem, we should first ______.A. make use of sea water.B. stop polluting water.C. develop ways of reusing water.D. purify used water.39. The best title for the passage would be "______".A. The Importance of Water.B. The World's Water Problem.C. The Thirsty World.D. Fresh Water and Sea Water.Passage 2.A young man once went into town and bought himself a pair of trousers. When he got home, he went upstairs to his bedroom and put them on. He found that they were about two inches too long.He went downstairs, where his mother and his two sisters were washing up in the kitchen. "These new trousers are too long," he said. "They need shortening by about two inches. Would one of you mind doing it for me?" His mother and sisters were busy and none of them said anything.But as soon as his mother had finished washing up, she went quietly upstairs to her son's bedroom and shortened the trousers by two inches. She came downstairs without saying anything.Later on, after supper, the elder sister remembered her brother's trousers. She was a kind - hearted girl, so she went quietly upstairs and shortened the trousers by two inches.The younger sister went to the cinema, but when she came back, she, too, remembered what her brother had said. So she ran upstairs with her scissors, needle and thread and shortened the trousers by two inches.You can imagine the look on the young man's face when he put the trousers on the next morning.40.

My cousin thinks this is because cars are like their drivers. He says, "Rich people have expensive cars, big people have large cars, and old people drive old cars." But I don't agree with him.My opinion is that cars are for people to get from one place to another. While you're driving, you have to think about a lot of things, such as the road, other cars, people, traffic lights, etc. Rich people may have more money, but they don't always buy expensive cars. Big people may not always drive large cars. And old people may sometimes drive new cars.There are different kinds of cars for different needs. For example, a sports car is good for speed, a truck is good for carrying things, and avan is good for families with a lot of children.Some people like to drive a car because they think it gives them more freedom. They can go where they want to go, when they want to go. Otherslike to drive a car because it makes them feel important.In conclusion, cars are an important part of our lives. We should choose the car that suits our needs and lifestyle.44. The writer's cousin thinks that ______.A. cars are for people to get from one place to another.B. rich people have expensive cars, big people have large cars, and old people drive old cars.C. different kinds of cars are for different needs.D. cars give people more freedom.45.

Each passage is followed byfour questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A，B， C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneDebate is a valuable way to practise communicating. It can also bring long-lasting rewards，especially for people working with Western businesses. The main activity of debate is presenting one’s opinion and supporting it with evidence，such as statistics or facts. It is a way of persuasive communication.Charles Lebeau helped create the“Discover Debate”method. He says debate is important to understanding how people communicate in Western business. Successful debaters learn how to give their opinion，reasons and support.“What we are trying to do is to develop a kind of thinking or approach to discussion and how to interact （交流） with someone else’s opinion，rather than brush their opinion aside.”Debate skills are also important in selling a product，he says. In that situation，the judges are the customers.“So on Monday， for example，one company may come in and present their case to the customer and they’ll make as strong a case as they can. On Tuesday，the next day，another company will come in and present their case to the customer. Usually the party that can present the strongest case wins.”Debate also strengthens critical thinking. In other words，it helps students learn to ask questions and try to understand someone’s reasons and evidence.Mr. Lebeau points out that successful debaters learn to listen carefully to what other people are saying. Then，they look for the weak points in someone else’s opinion or argument. He says debate teaches a systematic way of questioning.Successful debaters also learn to think from someone else’s point of view. Mr. Lebeau says debate can help broaden the mind.“There’s an expression in English：don’t criticize another person before you have walked in their shoes. I think the wonderful thing about debate is，it puts us in another person’s shoes.”36.According to Paragraph 1，what is the purpose of debate?A. To bring long-lasting material rewards.B. To persuade people to accept your opinions.C. To respond to questions in a systematic way.D. To present evidence such as statistics and facts.37.Why is debate important?A. It helps people understand others better.B. It allows people to present their opinions.C. It gives one the opportunity to brush others’opinion aside.D. It develops one’s thinking and communicative competence.38.What does the underlined word“case”in Paragraph 3 refer to?A. Container.B. Product.C. Problem.D. Evidence.39.What can debaters benefit from“walking in another person’s shoes?”A. Becoming more broad-minded.B. Developing critical thinking.C. Finding others’weak points.D. Trying out others’methods.Passage TwoWe all love a hero，and rescue dogs are some of the biggest heroes of all. You will often find them going above and beyond duty to save someone，risking—and at times losing—their lives in the process.Rescue dogs are generally found in the Sporting and Hunting Groups，or from the traditional Herding Group. These types include the Bloodhound，Labrador Retriever， Newfoundland，German Shepherd，Golden Retriever， and Belgian Malinois—all of which are chosen for search-and-rescue duty because of their amazing physical strength，loyalty，and their tendency for mental stability.These types also have a keen sense of hearing and smell—to better locate lost individuals—and are often able to access hard-to-reach areas. As highly trained animals，they serve in many different fields，including specialist search，snow slide rescue，dead body location，and tracking.To overcome obstacles and succeed when performing the demanding duties of a search-and-rescue worker， a dog must display certain qualities. In addition to intelligence and strength，the dog must be swift，confident，easily trainable，adaptable，and have a high level of stamina （耐力） and endurance. A strong sense of group cooperation and an ability to engage in friendly play during“down”time is also required of search-and-rescue dogs.A rescue dog goes through many，many hours of intensive training to be fit for duty. Training is not for the faint-hearted. Certification training can take from two to three years，working three to four hours a day，three to six days a week，often in group，team-oriented sessions.Each search-and-rescue field requires different types of training. Rescue training，for instance，includes“air scenting”—where dogs are trained to smell the air for the victim’s scent （气味） and then follow the scent to the person. This ability is crucial to finding victims trapped under collapsed buildings and snow slide.40.Rescue dogs are chosen probably because .A. they are loyalB. they are braveC. they have amazing appearancesD. they have good eyesight41.What does“faint-hearted”in Paragraph 5 mean?A. Courageous.B. Energetic.C. Cowardly.D. Slow.42.Which ability is most important for dogs to rescue people trapped in snow?A. Sharp hearing. B. Swift movement.C. A strong memory. D. Extraordinary smelling.43.What is the passage mainly about?A. Selection process of rescue dogs.B. Risks rescue dogs are faced with.C. Qualities and training of rescue dogs.D. Types of tasks rescue dogs can perform.Passage ThreeEating an apple a day doesn’t keep the doctor away，but it does reduce the amount of trips you make to the drug store per year That’s according to a new study that investigates whether there’s any truth in the old saying.A team of researchers led by Dr Matthew Davis，of the University of Michigan School of Nursing，asked 8，399 participants to answer survey questions about diet and health. A total of 753 were apple eaters，consuming at least 149 g of raw apple per day. The remaining 7，646 were classed as non-apple eaters. When both groups answered questions on trips to the doctor and trips to the drug store per year，the apple eaters were found to be 27% less likely to visit the druggist for drugs.Trips to the doctor were not significantly affected by apple consumption，though.“Evidence does not support that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. However，the small number of US adults who eat an apple a day does appear to use fewer prescription medications，”the study concludes.Apple eaters were also found to be less likely to smoke and be more likely to have a higher educational attainment than non-apple eaters. While apples do not compete with oranges，they do contain some immune (免疫的) system-increasing vitamin C，which may be why apple-eaters visit the druggist less. With over 8 mg of vitamin C per medium-sized fruit，an apple can provide roughly 14% your daily recommended intake.Previous studies have also linked apple consumption to a lower risk of Type 2 diabetes （二型糖尿病），improved lung function and a lower risk of colon （结肠） cancer.44.How many non-apple eaters answered survey questions in the research?A. 149.B. 753. C. 7,646.D. 8,399.45.What is the conclusion of the study?A. Apple consumption has greatly reduced US adults’trips to the doctor.B. A small number of US adult apple eaters tend to take less medicine.C. Apples are far more nutritious than oranges.D. An apple a day does keep the doctor away.46.What can we learn from the passage?A. Apples are better than oranges.B. Apples can help cure certain diseases.C. Apples do have some vitamin C to increase the immune system.D. Apples can provide people with sufficient daily intake of energy.47.What can be described as the writing style of this passage?A. Objective.B. Creative.C. Subjective.D. Persuasive.Passage FourSometimes I scratch my head when I read about the government’s efforts to improve schools：new standards and tests to be applied，strict teacher evaluations，and threats of school closures and job losses. They frighten the school employees，not to mention the students. Instead of making people unable to solve problems or try new ideas—which is what fear does to us—research on school reform strongly suggests that policy-makers should encourage school leaders to take a more humane approach. In their study on the reform efforts of twelve Chicago public schools，Bryk and Schneider found that enabling positive social relationships between the adults was the key to successful school improvement and that trust was at the heart of those relationships.Trust in schools comes down to one thing：psychological safety or safety to speak one’s mind，to discuss with openness and honesty what is and isn’t working，to make collective decisions.Yet this kind of safety doesn’t come easily to schools. According to Bryk and Schneider，the adults in school rely on each other to do their jobs correctly and with integrity （正直）. The challenge is that our expectations are very diverse based on our unique backgrounds.At one school where I taught，each teacher had different expectations about how much extra effort teachers should put into their work—a big difference between the teachers who left after the last bell and those who worked into the evening. And when expectations are unconscious or unspoken，it becomes impossible for others to live up to them.We also make assumptions about the intentions behind a person’s behavior. As we all know，assumptions are often wrong. For example，parents and teachers may think the principal made a particular decision based on his career advancement rather than what’s best for the students. If we don’t feel psychologically safe to question our assumptions and expectations，trust flies out the window and our relationships suffer.48.According to Paragraph 1，why does the author scratch his head?A. Because he doesn’t know what to do once schools are closed.B. Because he is not in favor of the government’s reform efforts.C. Because he is concerned that many teachers will lose their jobs.D. Because he is not sure about the practicability of those new tests.49.According to Bryk and Schneider，what was most important for successful school improvement?A. New standards and tests in schools. B. Strict teacher and student evaluations.C. Positive social relationships. D. Assistance of the government.50.What is meant by trust in school?A. Freedom to express one’s views.B. Extra effort teachers put into their work.C. Independence of the teachers in schools.D. Unconscious and unspoken expectations.51. W hat does the author say about the assumptions made about the intentions behind a person’s behavior?A. They should be trusted. B. They are often bold.C. They should be encouraged. D. They are often incorrect.Passage FiveAn interesting project called Blue Zones is recording the lifestyle secrets of the communities with the highest concentrations of centenarians in the world.The people in the five regions in Europe，Latin America，Asia and the US that live to be 100 have a lot going for them. Genes probably play a small role，but these folks also have strong social ties，tightly-knit families and lots of opportunities to exercise.As we were examining the dietary secrets of the Blue Zones，as described in author Dan Buettner’s latest book，The Blue Zones Solution，we were struck by how essential tea drinking is in these regions. In fact，Buettner’s Blue Zones Beverage Rule—a kind of guideline summarized from his 15 or so years of studying these places—is：“Drink coffee for breakfast，tea in the afternoon，wine at 5 p.m.”Science has plenty to say about the healthful virtues of green tea. Researchers are most enthusiastic about the components in green tea，as well as foods like cocoa. Why might they help so many Okinawans in Japan break 100? Some components in green tea can lower the risk of stroke，heart disease and several cancers. One review study also found that drinking green tea can slightly improve metabolism（新陈代谢）.If you find yourself on the island of Ikaria，the Greek Blue Zone in the middle of the Aegean，you won’t be offered any tea made with tea leaves. Instead，Ikarians typically make their daily cup of tea with just one fresh herb that they have picked themselves that day—either rosemary， wild sage，oregano，marjoram，mint or dandelion，all plants that may have anti-inflammatory （消炎的）properties，which may help lower blood pressure. This could explain Ikaria’s very low dementia （痴呆） rate，since high blood pressure is a risk factor for the disease.52.What does the underlined word“centenarians”in Paragraph 1 refer to?A. People who have secret lifestyles.B. People who enjoy physical exercise.C. People who carry the gene for being slim.D. People who are one hundred years old or older.53.According to Paragraph 3，what is the recommended time for tea drinking?A. In the morning. B. In the afternoon.C. In the early evening. D. Any time of a day.54.What may the tea Ikarians drink daily help?A. To improve metabolism.B. To lower life stress.C. To lower blood pressure.D. To improve social relationships.55.What might be the best title of the passage?A. Tea-Drinking TipsB. Blue Zones SolutionsC. Tea-Drinking Ceremony in Okinawa D. Lifestyle Secrets of lkariansV.
