You should choose the best answers to the questions and mark the corresponding letters on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1It's easy to see how to help some people, but what about those whose needs are not so clear? This story happened not long ago, but it is a lesson that has stayed with me and helped me ever since.It was Thanksgiving and I was volunteering with my parents at a shelter for the poor. We served hot food to whoever came in. Most of these people looked as if they had been having hard times;their clothes were worn out and dirty. Then, a man came in, who looked anything but poor. He was well dressed. I wondered what he was doing there and my jaw(下巴)dropped in amazement when he joined the queue for food. What was this man doing? Surely he wasn't going to take food which was meant for those who were really in need!Then my mother quietly took me to one side. She said,“You have thought that the needs of the people who come here must be purely physical. But what if his needs are emotional? What if he needs comfort, friends, or just to be am ong other people?” Her words hit me like a ton of bricks! I felt like I should apologize to the man-but I didn't.About a week later the shelter received a large donation from an anonymous donor. I couldn't help but wonder if it came from that man.Now, whenever I meet someone, I will remember my mother's lesson and try to send kindness to him according to his needs, no matter how he looks. Needs aren't alwaysseen. But kindness always makes a difference.26. How did the author feel as the well-dressed man joined the queue for food?A. SurprisedB. ExcitedC. NervousD. Hopeless.27. What the author's mother said shows that we_____.A. shouldn't judge a man by his appearanceB. shouldn't complain to othersC. should give others what they wantD. should accept everything we meet28. What does the underlined word anonymous”in Paragraph 4 probably mean?A. ImportantB. UnknownC. IndependentD. Excellent.29. From the last paragraph, we learn that_____.A. seeing is believingB. it's difficult to be kind to othersC. some rich people pretend to be poorD. we should help people based on their needs30.What would be the best title for the passage?A. My Mother's Influence on My GrowthB. The Importance of VolunteeringC. One of My Most Shameful ExperiencesD. A Simple Lesson in KindnessPassage 2Red Dog was special.He was not one of those dogs who ran shouting into the wind in groups. He just loved walking with me. Sometimes, on the narrow road, he walked so close that his bright red fur brushed against my leg.“Red Dog,"I'd say, “each morning when we meet for the first time, why do you always look so glad?”Of course, Red Dog never made reply with words. If he wanted to say something, he spoke with his eyes, or the bend in his tail. However, since we were friends, that was enough.At night, Red Dog slept on the front porch, lying there and dreaming dreams of long summer daysand endless walks. His night-world filled up with the moon and stars, hoot-owl hoots, and ghostly white fogs that crept silently into the fields.Between dreams, I think that Red Dog must have awakened, raised his head, and looked around. Maybe then he became a little lonely. And probably he wondered why I got to sleep inside, but he had to sleep on the porch.But, you see, Red Dog lived in a time when dogs such as he were not allowed to go inside their masters' homes. In those days, most people didn't even believe that dogs had feelings, though I did.Yes, during those days when we walked in the fields and woods, Red Dog and I helped one another see things in special ways. Weedy roadsides were like museums and the fields of corn and beans around us were like circuses with many rings.31. Why was Red Dog special?A. Because he loved walking with the author.B. Because he could swim.C. Because he loved playing with other dogs.D. Because he could play with kids.32. What would Red Dog do to express himself?A. Raise his head.B. Use his eyes or tail.C. Lie down outside.D. Speak a human language.33. How might Red Dog feel when he awakened at night?A. Curious and excitedB. Terrified and lonely.C. Happy and excitedD. Lonely and puzzled.34. How did most people think about dogs in the story?A. Dogs could speak with words.B. Dogs didn't have feelings.C. Dogs could enter masters' houses.D. Dogs were people's friends.35.What is the passage mainly about?A. Bedrooms and yards.B. Fields and woods.C. Red Dog and his master.D. Museums and circuses.Passage 3For the past 28 years, barber Liu Jianjun and his team have been volunteering in Changchun. He and his team, which has 3,700 volunteers, have given free haircuts to around 80,000 people. They also volunteer to help those in need, such as seniors who live alone, and send them daily necessities during festivals.The 53-year-old has been helping others since he opened his barber shop in 1994.“I lost my mother when I was 6, and my father left home soon after,” he said. “I was raised by my grandmother and was looked after by my neighbors."So when he opened his barber shop, he decided to repay some of the kindness he had been shown.Every day he arrives at his shop an hour before opening to give free haircuts to people over 70. He also spends his spare time providing door-to-door service for those who have difficulty walking.His team members visit seniors to help them buy daily needs, move heavy objects and make repairs. They also offer free haircuts to deliverymen and sanitation workers.“ Fortunately, I got a lot of support from my team, friends and relatives, "he said.“The team is like a big family and its members care for and help each other. I really want to thank all of them.”The youngest member of his team is 7.“Several students have joined, and they volunteer with their parents," he said.“ When we visit nursing homes, they sing and dance, bringing the elderly a lot of pleasure."In 2014, Liu joined the Communist Party of China on the recommendation of his community. “Being a Party member is not only about status, but also about a heavy responsibility and a lifelong commitment," he said.“I am determined to progress further along the road of voluntary service.”36. What does the underlined word “volunteering"most probably mean?A. Living aloneB. Building new housesC. Raising childrenD. Offering to do things37. Why does barber Liu give free haircuts?A.

Festivals have value.C. Service is expensive.D. Kindness has power.Passage 4The Sun is undoubtedly the powerhouse of the solar system. The energy released from the Sun is equivalent to about 36 octillion (10 的48次方)lumens, where a lumen is a measure of the total amount of visible light. All the energy radiates out from the center of our solar system in the form of light, heat, gamma rays and X-rays,and magnetic fields. But in fact, the Sun's energy is generated in its core and moves outward to its surface where it is released as electromagnetic radiation. The heat, light and radiation that come from the Sun are all examples of electromagnetic radiation.It takes about 8 minutes for the electromagnetic radiation from the Sun to travel 93 million miles to the Earth. When it arrives, some of that solar energy is blocked or absorbed by the atmosphere, but what isn't blocked is absorbed or reflected by the air, land, water, plants and other matter that covers the surface of our planet. When the molecules in matter gain energy, they move more, vibrating in place or even bouncing off one another.Unlike electromagnetic radiation, heat must be transferred or conducted through matter. Some types of matter, like water, are really good at holding onto.this energy. Clouds of water particles and gases in the atmosphere absorb some of this heat too. This absorption of heat helps the Earth stay warm. It's one reason our planet stays at a livable temperature and doesn't change radically from freezing cold to blazing hot every day.Energy from the Sun makes it possible for life to exist on the Earth. It is responsible for photosynthesis in plants,vision in animals, and many other natural processes, such as the movements of air and water that creates weather. Most plants need at least some sunlight to grow, so without light, there would be no plants, and without plants, there would not be oxygen for us to breathe. Infrared radiation from the Sun is responsible for heating the Earth's atmosphere and surface. Without energy from the Sun,the Earth would freeze. There would be no winds, ocean currents or clouds to transport water.What's more, every day the Sun shines on the Earth, driving many chemical and physical changes across the planet. Light, which travels fastest in the world, helps people on the Earth clearly see the world.41. How far is the Sun from the Earth?A.8 miles.B. 11 million miles.C.13 miles.D.93 million miles.42. Light travels from the Sun to the Earth in the form of _______.A. wavesB. brain wavesC.sound wavesD. electromagnetic radiation43. Which of the following travels fastest?A. Car.B. Light.C. Plane.D. Wind.44.What are lumens used to describe?A. Brightness.B. Darkness.C. Liquid.D. Speed.45. What role does light play in life according to the passage?A. To make people have a better life.B. To help people conduct experiments.C. To help improve the environment.D. To help people see the world.Section 2 (5%)Directions: There is l passage in this section. Read the passage and complete the outline below it ( No. 46 to No.50). You should write your answers briefly ( in no more than three words) on the Answer Sheet correspondingly.If you have something valuable in mind, a service to offer, or an idea to develop, then you should tell it to other people to widen its scope. Why not make full use of it?The fact is that, when you have enough vision, you may have the courage. And then you simply have to pursue it, however crazy it might seem to others.Remember that everything starts from small things: Rome was not built in a day. Scientists say that everything in the universe comes from a smaller unit than you can possibly assume. So it doesn't matter where you are at present, because small beginnings become great things at last.Think big by enlisting(争取)others: To think big, you need to see yourself as a small part of a greater whole. Enlist people who arebetter than you. If you're not the most organized person , don't just be unhappy about it. You should find someone who is better.Big thinkers know their personal limitations. Gather people who can do what you can't do around you to make sure your dream will come true.Think big by focusing on future regrets: There is an old saying,“We regret not the things we did do, but the things we didn't do.”You'll never know how far it could go unless you see how far you can take something.If you have big plans, just close your eyes. And strongly imagine how regretful you will be if you don't try or attempt properly.Feel that it is your human duty to think big: When something is probably of real service to mankind, then it is a human duty to think and act big. Even if you don'tPart Ⅲ Translation-English into Chinese(20%)Directions: This part is to test your ability to translate English into Chinese.

And for the paragraph numbered 56, you should write your translation in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.51. We expect Li Lei to sing a song.A.我们期待李磊唱首歌。
2024湖北专升本英语试题As the sun dipped below the horizon, the city lights began to twinkle like a constellation of stars, each one a beacon of hope in the encroaching darkness.The bustling streets, once filled with the chatter of pedestrians and the honking of cars, now lay quiet, as if the city itself was taking a breath before the night's festivities.In the heart of the city, the river flowed serenely, reflecting the moon's soft glow. Its gentle ripples whispered tales of the day's adventures, carrying them to the shores of dreams.The night market buzzed with energy, a symphony of laughter and haggling. Aromas of sizzling street food wafted through the air, inviting the hungry to indulge in the city's culinary delights.Under the canopy of a thousand stars, couples strolled hand in hand, their silhouettes dancing to the rhythm of the city's heartbeat. The night was young, and so were they.A lone musician played his guitar on a street corner, his melodies weaving through the night, touching the souls of passersby with their tender notes.As the clock struck midnight, the city's pulse quickened. The neon signs blinked out one by one, and the city, like a weary traveler, settled into a peaceful slumber, ready to awaken to a new day's promise.In the quiet of the night, the city's spirit whispered stories of resilience and growth, a testament to the enduring spirit of its people, who, like the city, never ceased to evolve and thrive.。

He was blind for nearly a month. But he went on experimenting, increasing the length of time during which he looked into the sun, knowing that in the end this would cost him his sight. At the age of 42 he was completely and incurably blind; the sun had destroyed the retina (视网膜)of his eyes. But he continued to work as well as he could untilhe died at the age of 82.Science profited enormously from his research. He studied the so-called inertia of the eye(视觉暂留)which makes a picture remain on the retina for about one-sixth of a second after it has disappeared from our vision. This means that, if we see a succession of individual pictures each of which appears only for a fraction of a second, they overlap in our brain; and if they show consecutive phases of movement, that movement will appear to us to be continuousPlateau’s experiments were the first step leading to the invention of_____()A.eyeglasses B.telescopes C.bifocals D.motion pictures39.Which of the following statements is TRUE()A.The number of smokers'children is twice greater than that of nonsmokers'childrenB.People are now not allowed to smoke on short airline flights in the USC.Adults whose parents smoked when they were children develop cancer less frequentlyD.Second-hand smoke is not as dangerous as first-hand smoke40.University of Maryland student Ben Simon and his friends couldn't stand seeing good food thrown out on their campus. We basically noticed that some of the extra food from the dining hall was going to be wasted at the end of the day. And we met with the dining services and asked them whether it would be okay if instead of throwing out the food, we would donate it. And they were on board, he said.So 18 months ago, the students began what they call the Food Recovery Network. Each night, volunteers would show up at a campus dining hall to pick up leftovers and deliver them to area shelters and food banks. So far, they have donated more than 23,000 kilos of food that would otherwise have been thrown out.Nationwide, $165 billion worth of food is wasted each year, according to the National Resources Defense Council. Spokesman Bob Keefe says that is about 40% of the country's entire food production. If we can reduce our waste in this country by 15%, we can feed 25 million hungry Americans. That is a huge benefit. That is what programs like the Food Recovery Network are doing. he said.Christian Life Center is one of the beneficiaries(受益者)of the students'efforts. Ben Slye, the senior pastor, said, It has been just amazing tosee these students take their own time, their own vehicles and gas money and be able to make an effort like this. Each week we are able with this food probably to feed over a hundred people.The University of Maryland's Food Recovery Network now has 200 volunteers and the program has expanded to 18 schools across the country. I want to grow 18 chapters(地方分会)to a thousand chapters within fiveyears. And once we make the Food Recovery Network spread on college campus in America, we want to expand to restaurants and farms. said Simon. The volunteers are committed to making that happenThe dining services in University of Maryland ________()A.threw out good food on campusB.supported the volunteers'jobC.enjoyed the talk with the studentsD.donated their leftovers to the poor41.According to the author, _____()A.it is rather complicated to answer the question Why do we laugh?B.it is really simple to answer the question Why do we laugh?C.it is not necessary to answer the question Why do we laugh?D.scientists have already answered the question Why do we laugh42.It can be concluded from the passage that()A.we should try our best to prevent disablementB.we should take a proper attitude towards the disabledC.both physical and mental barriers are hard to break downD.the able-bodied will never fully understand the disabled43.A lost generation in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______()A.a generation full of hopeB.the sad and confused young menC.a big crowd of young menD.a group of people who have lost their way六、作文题(1题)44.参考答案1.B2.AA句意:病人的康复情况非常令人鼓舞,因为他几乎不用别人帮助就能自己下床了。

2023年湖北普通专升本大学英语真题试题及答案题目一:阅读理解Passage 1:Computers are increasingly being used to make important decisions, such as granting credit and making hiring decisions. Many people believe that such decisions should be made by humans, not by computers. They argue that computers lack the human ability to consider the context and nuances of each situation.However, proponents of computer decision-making contend that computers are less likely to be influenced by personal biases and emotions, leading to fairer outcomes. Humans are prone to making decisions based on their emotions and prejudices, while computers can follow strict algorithms and use objective criteria.Furthermore, computers can process vast amounts of data within seconds, which humans cannot do. This enables them to analyze complex information and identify patterns that might not be apparent to humans. In addition, computer systems can be continuously updated with new information, which ensures that decisions are based on the most relevant and up-to-date data available.In conclusion, while it is true that computers lack certain human qualities, such as empathy and the ability to consider context, they offer numerous advantages in decision-making. Their ability to be unbiased, process large amounts of data, andprovide objective criteria make them valuable tools in various fields.Questions:1.What is the main argument of those who believedecisions should be made by humans?2.According to the passage, why are computers lesslikely to be influenced by personal biases and emotions?3.Why are computers able to analyze complexinformation and identify patterns that might not beapparent to humans?Answer:1.The main argument of those who believe decisionsshould be made by humans is that computers lack thehuman ability to consider the context and nuances of each situation.puters are less likely to be influenced bypersonal biases and emotions because they follow strictalgorithms and use objective criteria.puters are able to analyze complex informationand identify patterns that might not be apparent to humans because they can process vast amounts of data withinseconds.题目二:词汇选择Choose the correct word to complete each sentence.1.The new museum has a __________ collection of modern art.(A)diverse(B)discrete(C)conventional(D)coherent2.We need to find a __________ to this problem before it gets worse.(A)sustenance(B)successor(C)solution(D)sequence3.She is known for her __________ and dedication to her work.(A)rhetoric(B)resilience(C)reverence(D)remorse4.The company’s profits have __________ significantlyover the past year.(A)debated(B)diminished(C)diverged(D)distinguishedAnswer:(A)diverse(C)solution(B)resilience(B)diminished题目三:写作 PracticeWrite a short composition (approximately 200 words) on the following topic:The Importance of Critical Thinking in the Digital AgeIn today’s digital age, critical thinking skills are more important than ever. With the vast amount of information available online, it is crucial to be able to analyze and evaluate the credibility and reliability of sources.

While there are clear benefits to this form of learning, there are also drawbacks that need to be considered.On one hand, online learning allows students to study at their own pace and in their own time, making it ideal for thosewith busy schedules or other commitments. It also provides access to a wider range of courses and resources, regardless of the student's location. Furthermore, online learning can be more cost-effective than traditional education, as it eliminates the need for commuting and physical materials.However, online learning lacks the face-to-face interaction and social aspects of traditional education. Students may miss out on the opportunities for networking, group work, and hands-on experience that can be crucial for their personal and professional development. Additionally, online learning requires strong self-discipline and motivation, as it can be challenging to stay focused without the structure of a physical classroom.In conclusion, online learning offers many advantages in terms of flexibility, accessibility, and affordability. However, it is important to consider the limitations it presents in terms of social interaction, engagement, and self-discipline.End of ExamOverall, the 2024 Hubei Province College English Entrance Examination covers listening comprehension, reading comprehension, and writing skills to assess the students' proficiency in English.
