Answer:17.Read the following paragraph and underline the topic sentence.What has happened to the American male? For a long time, he seemed utterly confident in his manhood, sure of his masculine (男性的) role in society, easy and definite in his sense of sexual identity. The frontiersmen(边远地区居民) of James Fenimore Cooper, for example, never had any concern about masculinity; they were men, and it did not occur to them to think twice about it. Even well into the twentieth century, the heroes of Dreiser, of Fitzgerald, of Hemingway remain men. But one begins to detect a new theme emerging in some of these authors, especially in Hemingway: the theme of the male hero increasingly preoccupied with proving his virility(男子气概)to himself. And by mid-century, the male role had plainly lost its rugged clarity of outline. Today men are more and more conscious of maleness not as a fact but as a problem. The ways by which American men affirm their masculinity are uncertain and obscure. There are multiplying signs, indeed, that something has gone badly wrong with the American male’s conception of himself.18.Read the following paragraph carefully and select the best topic sentence from the four possible answers that follow the paragraph.Topic Sentence:“Music,”the teacher would tell his pupils,“is a state of being. It is not so much knowledge and know-how .If you want to be good at playing an instrument, let music get hold of you first and this will in turn get hold your muscles and make them produce the music that is now inside you. How can music come out of an instrument if it is not first put into it? And who is to put it there? The composer, the maker of the instrument, the printed score or the player?”A. If you want to be good at playing an instrument, let music get hold of you first.B. It is about stages of learning to play an instrument.C. Only when the player puts the music into the instrument, can music come out of it.2D. Only when the maker of the instrument puts the music into the instrument, can music come out of it.Ⅳ.重新组合段落（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分）Rearrange the following numbered sentences so that they will read logically. Put the numbers in proper sequence in the boxes provided below.19.When the eyes begin to move, this is a sign of another change─the person is dreaming.20.If a person continues to sleep, she or he enters a new stage, a more active stage.21.There are two kinds of sleep: active sleep and passive sleep.22.Throughout the night, people alternate between passive and active to being active, and thendreaming occurs.23.And as the brain becomes more active, the eyes begin to move rapidly.24.This stage is known as slow-wave sleep because the brain waves move in a very slow, regular rhythm.25.The body goes through several changes: the brain temperature rises, the amount of blood in the brain increases, the body becomes very still, and the brain goes from being very inactive to being active.Ⅴ.标出与段落内容无关的句子（本大题共10分）Read the following paragraphs and cross out the irrelevant sentences.To the American visitor, Iceland is a very interesting country, partly because it is different in so many ways from what he or she is used to seeing at home. There are quite a few things that are not done, or that do not exist on the island─quite a few no’s.There is no pollution, for instance. No dogs are permitted in Reykjavik, the capital. There is no television on Thursdays or during the entire month of July, and only three hours of black-and-white TV the rest of the time. Because many people now worry about the effect that TV has on the young. There is no hard liquor on Wednesdays and no beer at any time. There are no handguns; even the police do not carry them. Crime is so rare that there is only one jail of thirty-five cells in the entire land─an admirable figure, even for a small country of 222，000 people.There is no army, air force or navy. There is no tipping for anything. There are no large stores open on Saturdays and on Sundays. Since Iceland is situated just under the Arctic Circle, there is no darkness in summer and no daylight in winter. Therefore, people prefer summer to winter. But thanks to Gulf Stream, the climate is rather mild, with temperatures ranging from thirty-four degrees Fahrenheit to fifty-two degrees in July.The rules on television, liquor, and guns are the result of governmental decision. But the absence of pollution is due in great part to the hot springs that come out of the ground; in fact,3Iceland uses only 3 percent of all its available power.Ⅵ.写信(本大题共40分)Write a letter of complaints according to the following situation: You (Liu Dan)bought an air conditioner in Sun Appliances and had it installed the other day, but you found that the fan made too much noise when the machine operated. Y ou demand the store to senda representative to check it up. In your letter, provide the specific defects of the airconditioner, the date of purchase, the serial number of it and the way to contact you.(150-200words)4。

A tornado forms when a layer of warm, dry air is on top of a layer of cooler, moist air. This combination of dry, warm air above wet, cool air creates a condition that causes the lower layer of air to lift up.

Masks are very useful. At Halloween, children wear masks for fun; they may, of course, also think they are disguising themselves, but chiefly their motive is to experience the joy of saying “boo” to someone. Soldiers wore masks for protection, in ancient times against swords and battle-axes, in more recent times against poison gas. Bankrobbers wear masks to disguise themselves, and though of course this disguise is a sort of protection, a robber’s reason for wearing a mask is fairly distinct from a soldier’s. All of these reasons so far are easily understood, but we may have more trouble grasping the reason that primitive people use masks in religious rituals. Some ritual masks seem merely to be attempts to frighten away evil spirits, and some seem merely to be disguises so that the evil spirits will not know who the wearer is. The masks are usually made of paper. But most religious masks are worn with the idea that the wearer acquires, through a union with supernatural powers, a new identity, and thus in effect becomes—really becomes, not merely pretends to be—a new person.VI.写信(40 points)Write a letter to your friend according to the following situation: You(Weiping) haven’t heard from your friend(Zhijie) since the SARSoutbreak. You tell him or her about yourself and the general situation in Beijing during that period. Since Beijing was taken off the list of SARS-infected areas, things have gradually come back to normal. You would encourage him or her to come for a visit in autumn, as it is the best season of the year.(150-200 words)__________________________________________ ______________________________________________ ______________________________________________ ____2003年10月英语写作基础试题答案。
