2020-2021《英语写作》2期末课程考试试卷A1适用专业： 考试时间：考试时间：120分钟 闭卷 试卷总分：100分(答案请写在答题纸上)Part I. Summary Writing (20 %):Directions: Read the following passage. Write a summary of about 80 words.The “Hawthorne Effect”, on e of the best-known experiments in sociology was conducted before World War II at the Hawthorne plant of Western Electric. The management was eager to improve productivity and wanted to know what kind of incentives would encourage the workers to increase output. The researcher who investigated the problem, Elton Mayo, separated a group of women from the other workers and systematically varied lighting, coffee breaks, lunch hours, methods of payment, and so on. At first, Mayo and his associates were delighted: each new change increased levels of productivity. But when the researchers found that productivity rose no matter which variables were involved, they became suspicious. When the workers were finally returned to their original conditions, their productivity rose yet aga in! Something was seriously wrong with the researchers’ theoretical assumptions. Whatever had caused the changes in the dependent variable —productivity —it was not the independent variables the experimenters had introduced, and from this point of view the experiment was a failure. But the reasons for the experiment’s failure have taught sociologists a great deal. Production rose, it seems, because the women enjoyed all the attention they were getting: they became a tight-knit, cooperative group, they knew what effects the sociologists were trying to produce, and they did their best to please. This phenomenon —the contamination of the experiment by the subjects’ assumptions about what the sociologist is trying to prove —is still known as the Hawthorne effect. (239 words)Part II. Essay Appreciation (35%)Directions: Read the following essay and answer the questions.The Hazards of MoviegoingI am a movie fanatic. My friends count on me to know movie trivia (who was the pigtailed little girl in E.T.: The Extra-Terrestrial? Drew Barrymore) and to remember every big Oscar awarded since I was in grade school (best picture 1994? Forrest Gump). My friends, though, have stopped asking me if I want to go out to the movies. While I love movies as much as ever, the inconvenience of going out, the temptations of the theatre, and the behavior of some patrons are reasons for me to wait and rent the video.To begin with, . Since small local movie theaters are a thing of the past, I have to drive for fifteen minutes to get to the nearest multiplex. The parking lot is shared with several restaurants and a supermarket, so it ’s always jammed. I have to drive around at a snail ’s paceuntil I spot another driver backing out. Then it ’s time to stand in an endless line, with the constant threat that tickets for the show I want will sell out. If we do get tickets, the theater will be so crowded that I won ’t be able to sit with my friends, or we ’ll have to sit in a front row gaping up at a giant screen, I have to shell out a ridiculous amount of money —up to ＄8—for a ticket. That entitles me to sit while my shoes seal themselves to a sticky floor coated with spilled soda, bubble gum, and crushed Raisinets.Second, the theater offers tempting snacks that I really don ’t need. Like most of us, I have to battle an expanding waistline. At home I do pretty well by simply not buying stuff that is bad for me. I can make do with snacks like celery and carrot sticks because there is no ice cream in the freezer. Going to the theater, however, is like spending my evening in a Seven-Eleven that ’s been equipped with a movie screen and comfortable seats. As I try to persuade myself to just have a diet Coke, the smell of fresh popcorn dripping with butter soon overcomes me. Chocolate bars the size of small automobiles seem to jump into my hands. I risk pulling out my fillings as I chew enormous mouthfuls of Milk Duds. By the time I leave the theater, I feel disgusted with myself.Many of the other patrons are even more of a problem than the concession stand. Little kids race up and down the aisles, usually in giggling packs. Teenagers try to impress their friends by talking back to the screen, whistling, and making what they consider to be hilarious noises. Adults act as if they were at home in their own living room. They comment loudly on the ages of the stars and reveal plot twists that are supposed to be a secret until the film ’s end. And people of all ages create distractions. They crinkle candy wrappers, stick gum on their seats, and drop popcorn tubs or cups of crushed ice and soda on the floor. They also cough and burp, squirm endlessly in their seats, file out for repeated trips to the rest rooms or concession stands, and elbow me out of the armrest on either side of my seat.After arriving home from the movies one night, I decided that I was not going to be a moviegoer anymore.

Summary Writing (20 %):The Hawthorne Effect phenomenon was first noted in an experiment conducted before World War II at the Hawthorne plant of Western Electric. Productivity increased significantly not because incentives were added but because attention was given to workers. The Hawthorne Effect is the contamination of the experiment because the subjects try to achieve whatever result the experimenters desire.Part II.

I was tired of the problems involved in getting to the theater, resisting unhealthy snacks, and dealing with the patrons. The next day, I arranged to have premium movie channels installed as part of my cable TV service, and I also got a membership at my local video store. I may now see movies a bit later than other people, but I’ll be more relaxed watching box office hits in the comfort of my own living room.Part III.

AAn Arizona mom says none of her son's kindergarten friends showed up to his birthdayparty after she sent 32 invitations to his classmates.The boy, Teddy, held a birthday party on Sunday at Peter Piper Pizza in Tucson, where he andhis mother, Sil Mazzini, had been expecting dozens of little girls and boys—as well as thechildren's parents—to join them at the restaurant. Mazzini said a few people told her in advancethat they couldn't make it, but she wasn't prepared for everyone to be no-shows.Mazzini shared a photo of her son sitting alone in front of several pizzas on her Facebookpage. That brought dozens and dozens of birthday wishes from around the country, as well asother gifts and offers."I live near Tampa, Florida, and heard about you via my local news," one woman wrote onFacebook. "I hope you have a wonderful year and I'm sending you a big hug." The biggestunexpected birthday present for Teddy came from the Phoenix Suns, who invited him to watchWednesday night's game at the Talking Stick Resort Arena against the Los Angeles Lakers andLeBron James. The city's professional soccer club, the Phoenix Rising, also invited Teddy to "join Array 7,000 of his closest friends" at a playoff game on Friday.But some on social media questioned Mazzini's decision to broadcast her son's humiliating day. "Quick! Someone call the news. Don't embarrass this kid even more than he already is," one woman wrote on Facebook. "Good lord. This is so wrong. "1、How may Teddy feel about his birthday party?A．Relaxed. B．Disturbed. C．Disappointed. D．Bored.2、What did the Phoenix Suns invite Teddy to do?A．Play a playoff game on Friday.B．Watch Wednesday night's game.C．Join the professional soccer club.D．Spend a weekend with them3、What can we infer about Sil Mazzini from the last paragraph?A．She is not supported by all the people.B．She cares little about her son's feelings.C．She regrets having posted her son's images.D．She has removed the comments on Faceloook.BFrom the moment you open your eyes in the morning, you can feel sweat running down your body, even if you're barely moving at all. That's what most people in China felt like this summer. In fact, the entire northern hemisphere(半球)saw high temperatures in July.The Arctic Circle was no exception(例外). Temperatures in the city of Norilsk, which is in the Arctic Circle, reached a record high of 32 ℃, The Atlantic reported. Temperatures there are usually just 10 ℃at this time of the year.The heat wave in the Arctic is mainly a long-term result of global warming, according to the Chinese Academy of Meteorological Sciences. In fact, while the whole world is getting warmer, the Arctic is warming twice as fast as the rest of the planet. This is called the polar amplification effect（极地放大效应）.The most direct impact of Arctic warming is the melting of Arctic ice. According to NASA,Arctic sea ice is now disappearing at a rate of 13.2 percent every 10 years. NASA said that if this Array continues, the Arctic will have no ice by the year 2040.This has put some Arctic animals, like polar bears, in danger. The ice that the bears live on has shrunk(缩小), the Toronto Star reported.Melting ice can also cause sea levels to rise in the long term. Since 1993, sea levels have risen at a rate of 3.2 cm every 10 years, the Guardian reported. Some countries, such as Tuvalu（图瓦鲁）in the South Pacific Ocean and Maldives（马尔代夫）in the Indian Ocean, are at risk of disappearing into the sea1、Which of the following is true?A．Some countries in the ocean will disappear in 10 yearsB．China is the hottest in the northern hemisphere this summerC．The temperatures in Norilsk used to be lower than this summer.D．The world gets warmer because of the heat wave in the Arctic2、What does the underlined word "this" in the third paragraph refer to?A．The heat wave in the Arctic B．The result of global warmingC．Getting warmer in the world D．The Arctic getting warm faster3、What may be the result of the melting of Arctic ice?A．The polar will become dangerous B．Sea levels rise in the long termC．There will be an end of water shortage D．There will be no ice in the world by 20404、What is the main idea of this passage?A．Heat hits ArcticB．Arctic animals are in danger.C．The world became hotter than beforeD．Some countries may disappear into the sea第三部分语言知识运用（共两节）第一节（每小题1分，满分20分）阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项．The town I live in is about to put cameras at all traffic lights to catch people who run red lights.

After all, it’s not many people who can persuade you buy something that’s not working properly, and then charge you in advance for something that may or may not be better.Many of you probably know that July 31 was the final deadline for Microsoft’s volume customers to pay for the company’s new subscription-based way of selling software. I won’t bore you with the details of the new licensing program, called Licensing 6.0. It’ll be enough just to say it has forced companies and governments all over the world to rethink their software budgets and whether they can truly afford to keep buying Microsoft server, operating-system and office-suite software. Or, more to their terror, whether they can afford not to.The fact is like this: Software manufacturers rely on selling new versions of their programs to get revenue. But this is unpredictable: How can you be sure everyone is going to Office 97 suite, for example, meaning they not only avoided the Office2000 upgrade, but also Office XP.In software terms, they’re like those annoying tribes that people keep discovering. These tribes seem happy and content wandering around in bits of clothes made of leaves, and drinking their simple but strong tree-sap wine, carefully ignorant of the benefits of air-conditioning , cable TV , etc.So Microsoft’s come up with a novel solution that ensures that these slow-mover—the Office 97 users, not the annoying tribes, -- buy upgrades. This guarantees the company’s revenues to remain nice and steady.Under these new licensing rules, a volume customer is encouraged to subscribe to software, rather than purchasing it immediately. On the plus side he’ll get all the fixes, support, and new versions that come out during the subscription period, as well as being able to spread out his costs. On the downside he won’t actually own the software he’s been using, and won’t be guaranteed an updated version unless it comes out during the subscription period. This program, ironically, is called Software Assurance, which not only sounds like something from persistent salesmen, but also seems to be a misused name, due to the lack of assurance it offers.Unsurprisingly, here’re some serious complaints going on, which has forced Microsoft to extend the deadline twice. Governments, with strict software budgets, are actively looking elsewhere. Peru is contemplating a law requiring all public institutions to switch to software that can be adapted and rewritten freely without copyright restriction. And Norway last month allowed its contracts with Microsoft to expire, opening the door for cheaper alternatives.What should you do? Personally, I’d prefer leaf skirts: there’s no compelling reason to upgrade to Office 2000 or XP. The added features you’re paying for with each upgrade are rarely must-have items; in most cases they’re either decorative or actually making using the software harder. In nearly all cases they’re rarely used andwhen they are they just bring trouble. When I tried to make use of a feature which supposedly allowed me to update text simultaneously across documents, everything ended up looking like the morning after a student party I once attended in a farmyard.I spent hours converting the fancy new formulas to plain old text. Indeed, with about half of users still happy with Office 97, you’d better save your Word documents in the older format just in case another user can’t read your file properly.If you want to save money, consider dropping Microsoft altogether. There are alternatives to Office: StarOffice, from Sun Microsystems is into its sixth version and sells for $80, or 20% of Microsoft Office. Better yet, Software602 Inc. offers an office package for free with an optional add-on for $30. another option: gobeProductive, $75 from GoBe Software Inc.For Microsoft, stuck with competition from earlier release of its own products, all this argument makes sense. For the rest of us? Stick with software that you’re happy with as long as you can. And meanwhile, enjoy your tree-sap wine.基础英语写作参考答案Part I (1*20=20%)1.economic2. further3. prosecuted4. who5. whoever6. lie7. stand8. indescribably9. occasional 10. steadily 11. terribly 12. dark 13. is 14. is 15. improves 16. plan17. has 18. raised 19. all the last few 20. lovely shining large round Part II Note-writing (20%)I.格式: (占3分)包括日期、称呼、和结尾三部分，各占1分。

How to be a good student？It’s very important to be a good student. As teenagers, how to be a good student?In my opinion, there are lots of things we should do. Firstly, it’s ne cessary to develop good habits in life and study. For example, we should eat healthily and do more exercise every day. Besides, we should listen to the teacher carefully and finish homework on time. Secondly, be honest. Don’t tell lies and never cheat in t ests. Honesty is the best policy. Thirdly, we are supposed to obey the school rules. Don’t go swimming alone without permission, and don't take mobile phones to school and so on. Finally, we should get on well with our classmates. When someone is in trouble, we should give them a hand.All in all, if everyone can follow these rules do them well, I believe that you will be a good student.二.中学生自我保护请你根据上面五个问题的内容及你的回答，结合以下提示，以“How Can We Protect Ourselves at School?”为题，写一篇80-100词的英语短文。
