You get freedom and the chance to meet new people. You are living away from home, planning your own routine and even cooking your own meals ——and that means looking after your own money.

After a hard day’s study, going out and having fun is what student life is all about. You can get involved in voluntary work and student representation activities and you could contribute and learn new skills with student magazine and radio station. It’s the perfectway to make friends and add a bit of sparkle to you CV(个人简历).University life is about learning. You’ll be ex pected to go to all your lectures and classes.

Every student has a personal tutor to help with any problems you might have or you can speak to your lecturers and other tutors if you have questions. If you plan you time and your workload, you’ll have plenty of free time to enjoy student life at university. Plus, getting a degree makes sense in the long run ——graduates earn more and are more likely to get a job than people without a degree.1.

The passage is followed by some questions orunfinished statement. For each of them 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 . New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And. of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly enhanced by foreign language skills. Deeply involved with this new technology is a breed of modern businesspeople who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic business efforts. Overseas assignments are becoming increasingly important to advancement within executive ranks. The executive stationed in another country no longer need fear being “out of sight and out of mind.” He or she can be sure that the overseas effort is central to the company’s plan for success, and that promotions often follow or accompany an assignment abroad. If an employee can succeed in a difficult assignment overseas, superiors will have greater confidence in his or her ability to cope back in the United States where cross-cultural considerations and foreign language issues are becoming more and more prevalent (普遍的). Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal. The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious asset to the firm.48. What is the author’s attitude toward high -tech communications equipment? A. Critical. C. Indifferent. B. Prejudiced. D. Positive.49. With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, business people ______. A. have to get familiar with modern technology. B. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations. C. are attaching more importance to their overseas business. D. are eager to work overseas.50. In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind” (Lines 2-3, Para. 3) probably means ____.密 封 线 自 觉 遵 守 考 场 纪 律 如 考 试 作 弊 此 答 卷 无效A. being unable to think properly for lack of insight.B. being totally out of touch with business at home.C. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad.D. leaving all care and worry behind.51.According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today? A. Connections with businesses overseas. B. Ability to speak the client’s language. C. Technical know-how. D. Business experience.52. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can _______. A. better control the whole negotiation process. B. easily find new approaches to meet market needs. C. fast-forward their proposals to headquarters. D. easily make friends with businesspeople abroad.Part VI Cloze (5 minutes) (5%)Directions : Read the following passage and fill in each of the numbered blankswith one suitable word.

The closer we got to the turnoff (岔道) for my grandparents’ house, the slower the car went. Suddenly, my father U-turned in the middle of the road and said: “I can’t stand it!”“What?” asked my mother.“It’s those people back there at the Pan Am, standing in the rain. They’ve got children. It’s Christmas. I can’t stand it.”When my father pulled into the service station, I saw that there were five of them: the parents and three children – two girls and a small boy.My father rolled down his window. “Merry Christmas,” he said.“Howd y (您好),” the man replied. He was very tall and had to stoop (弯腰) slightly to peer into the car.My sisters Jill, Sharon, and I stared at the children, and they stared back at us.“You’re getting wet standing here. Just a couple miles up the road there’s a shed (小棚) with a cover there, and some benches,” my father said. “Why don’t you all get in the car?”The man thought about it for a moment, and then he waved to his family. They climbed into the car.Once they settled in, my father looked back over his shoulder and asked the children if Santa had found them yet. Three unhappy faces gave him the answer.“Well, I didn’t think so,” my father said, winking at my mother, “because when I saw Santa this morning, he told me that he was having trouble finding all, and he asked me if he could leave your toys at my house. We’ll just go to get them before I take you to the bus stop.”All at once, the three children’s faces lit up, and they began to bounce around in the back seat, laughing and chattering.When we got out of the car at our house, the three children ran through the front door and straight to the toys that were spread out under our Christmas tree. One of the girls spied Jill’s doll and hugged it to her breast. The little boy grabbed Sharon’s ball. And the other girl picked up something of mine.We left them there at the bus stop in Winborn. As we drove away, I watched out the window as long as I could, looking back at the little girl hugging her new doll.That was the Christmas when my sisters and I learned the joyof making others happy.56. The writer’s father U-turned in the middle of the road because ______.A. he could not stand the people at the service stationB. he could not bear the thought of leaving the people behindC. he wanted to do something special for his parentsD. he wanted to help the family standing in the rain57. The reason the father asked the kids if Santa had found them was probably that _____.A. he knew the mention of Santa would lift their spiritsB. he once promised to receive them as guests in his houseC. he wanted to avoid embarrassing the familyD. he had met Santa and got the presents for the kids58.

She was unhappy remembering that they had been late for the Christmas dinner.C. She was angry because she realized that she didn’t receive a Christmas gift that year.D.

The art of celebrating Christmas.D. The joy of making others happy.BWe can make mistakes at any age . Some mistakes we makeare about money .But most mistakes are about people . “ Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen ?” “ When I got that great job , did Jim , as a friend , really feel good about it ? Or did he envy my luck ?” “ And was Paul friendly just because I had a car ?” When we look back , doubts like these can make us feel bad .更多大一英语期末考试卷推荐：1.2.3.4.5.6.7.。

All these activities go on at the time of the year when the Christian churches are celebrating the birth of Christ some 2000 years ago. Christmas is a time for carol-singers (mainly groups of children who go from house to house singing traditional religious songs and receive money from the householders). It’s also a time of Christmas stockings hung b y the chimney or at the foot of the bed by children who believe that Father Christmas comes down the chimney and brings them their presents. It’s a time of rich, heavy food and plenty of drink. Christmas is the only time of the year that many families can afford to have alcoholic drink in the house. Traditionally, children who have grown up and left the family home return at Christmas to celebrate the festival with their parents.Commercial exploitation is increasing every year, and all the big department stores make a lot of money from the sale of presents, many of which will soon be forgotten both by the giver and the receiver. In almost every large store there is a “Father Christmas”, complete with a long white beard, red coat and trousers and snow-covered boots. December 25th and26th (Boxing Day, named after the “boxes” or presents that used to be given to servants on that day) are both national holidays, but New Year’s Day (January 1st) is not, except in Scotland, where it is more important than Christmas.Every home tries to obtain a Christmas tree, which is a type of fir tree. This is hung with presents and decorations and electric lights and forms the focus of the room in which the celebrations are taking place.1. At Christmas, Christian churches will ______.A) meet old friends B) receive giftsC) have parties D) celebrate the birth of Christ2. Carol-singers ______.A) are young children B) sing traditional religious songsC) rob money from house to house D) both A and B3. Children hang Christmas stockings ______.A) by the chimney B) at the foot of the bedC) on the wall D) both A and B4. Father Christmas ______ with a long beard, red coat and trousers and snow-covered boots.A) is a man B) is imagined to be a manC) lived D) likes a man5. Boxing Day is on ______.A) December 25th B) December 26thC) January 1st D) December 1stPassage 2Time spent in bookshop can be most enjoyable, whether you are a book lover or merely there to buy a book as a present. Whatever the person, you can soon become totally in aware of your surroundings. You soon become engrossed（全神贯注) in some books, and usually it is only much later that you realize you have spent far too much time there and must dash off to keep some forgotten appointment --- without buying a book, of course. This opportunity to escape the realities of everyday life is, I think, the main attraction of a bookshop. A music shop is very like a bookshop. You can wander round such places to your heart's content. If it is a good shop, no assistant will approach you with the inevitable greeting:" Can I help you, sir?" You needn’t buy anything you don't want. In a bookshop, an assistant should remain in the background until you have finished browsing（游览）.Then, and only then, are his services necessary.You have to be careful not to be attracted by the variety of books in a bookshop. It is very easy to enter the shop looking for a book on ancient coins and to come out carrying a copy of the latest best-selling novel and perhaps a book about brass-rubbing -- something which had only vaguely interested you up until then. This volume on the subject, however, happened to be so well illustrated and the part of the text you read proved so interesting that you just had to buy it. This sort of thing can be very dangerous. Apart from running up a huge account, you can waste a great deal of time wandering from section to section. Booksellers must be both long-suffering and indulgent（宽容）.6. You may be unaware of the time passing by in a bookshop because ______.A) you want to escape the reality of everyday lifeB) you have to finish browsing one of the booksC) you don't want to waste your moneyD) you have to make sure you don't buy a dull book as a present7. In a good bookshop _______.A) the shop assistant greets you in a friendly wayB) you feel obliged to buy one of the booksC) your heart is contentedD) no shop assistant will approach you unless his service is called8. It is very unwise to enter a bookshop and buy ______.A) a best-selling novel on brass-rubbingB) a book on ancient coinsC) a book on the subject that vaguely interests youD) a book well illustrated and expensive9. According to the writer, the best way to escape the realities of routine life is _____.A) to have a long chat with assistant in a bookshopB) to stay in a bookshop, being absorbed in reading books of various kindsC) to buy a best-selling novel to readD) to wander about in the streets10. The best title of this selection would be 632A) On buying booksB) Bookshops and AssistantsC) Booklovers and BookshopsD) How to Escape the Realities of Everyday Life in a BookshopPassage 3Social change is more likely to occur in societies where there is a mixture of different kinds of people than in societies where people are similar in many ways. The simple reason for this is that there are more different ways of looking at things present in the first kind of society, There are more ideas, more disagreements in interest, and more groups and organizations with different beliefs. In addition, there is usually a greater worldly interest and greater tolerance in mixed societies. All these factors tend to promote social change by opening more areas of life to decision. In a society where people are quite similar in many ways, there are fewer occasions for people to see the need or the opportunity for change because everything seems to be the same. And although conditions may not be satisfactory, they are at least customary and undisputed.Within a society, social change is also likely to occur more frequently and more readily in the material aspects of the culture than in the non-material, for example, in technology rather than in values; in what has been learned later in life rather than what was learned early; in the less basic and less emotional aspects of society than in their opposites; in the simple elements rather than in the complex ones; in form rather than in substance; and in elements that are acceptable to the culture rather than in strange elements.Furthermore, social change is easier if it is gradual. For example, it comes readily on human relations on a continuous scale rather than one with sharp dichotomies. This is one reason why change has not come more quickly to black Americans as compared to other American minorities, because of the sharp difference in appearance between them and their white counterparts.11. According to the passage, one of the factors that tend to promote social change is _____.A) mutual interest B) different points of viewC) more worldly people D) advanced technology12. Social change is less likely to occur in a society where people are quite similar in manyways because______.A) people there are always satisfied with their living conditionsB) people there have identical needs that can be met without much disputesC) people there have got accustomed to their conditions that they seldom think itnecessary to changeD) people there are less emotional and easy to please13. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A) Social values play an important role in social change.B) Social change is more likely to occur in the material aspects of society.C) Social change is more likely to occur if it comes graduallyD) Social change tends to meet with more difficulty in basic and emotional aspects ofsociety.14. The expression "greater tolerance" in Paragraph 1 refers to ______.A) greater willingness to accept social changeB) quicker adoption to changing circumstancesC) more respect for different beliefs and behaviorD) greater readiness to agree to different opinions and ideas15. The passage mainly discusses______.A) two different societiesB) the necessary of social changeC) different social changesD) certain factors that determine the ease with which social changes occurPassage 4An ebook (also referred to as an electronic book, Ebook, or e-book) is a digital version (版本) of a print book that you download and read. But if you want to read an ebook, you must have an Ebook Reader, which is a kind of free software used by your computer.
