Mrs. OwenBA small, white envelope stuck in our Christmas tree and it has been there for ten years or so.It all began because my husband Justin hated Christmas—oh, not the true meaning of Christmas. Overspending was one thing, but compared to the difficult experience of choosing gifts---running around at the last minute to get a tie for Uncle Harry or a pair of gloves for Grandma, spending money is nothing.I decided one year not to buy the usual shirts, sweaters, ties and so on. I reached for something special just for Justin. The new idea came in an unusual way.Our son Kevin, was wrestling (摔跤) at the junior level. And shortly before Christmas, there was a match against a team sponsored (赞助) by an inner-city church. Our boys were in their blue and gold uniforms and new wrestling shoes while the their youngsters were dressed in such worn-out shoes that shoe strings（带子）seemed to be the only thing holding them together.As the match began, I was shocked to see that the other team were wrestling without wearing helmets(头盔) to protect their heads. Well, our boys ended up defeating them. We took every weight class.Justin, seated beside me, shook his head sadly, ―I wish just one of them could have won,‖ he said, ―Losing like this could take the heart out of them.‖ That’s when the idea for his present came. That afternoon, I went to a local sporting good s store and bought different kinds of wrestling helmets and shoes. I sent them to the inner-city church without leaving my name.On Christmas Eve, I placed the envelope on the tree, the note inside telling Justin what I had done and that was his gift from me. His smile was the brightest thing about Christmas that year and since then the envelope has become the highlight of our Christmas.40.Justin hated Christmas mainly because .A. he thought Christmas makes no senseB. he had a hard time choosing giftsC. he spent too much money buying giftsD. he disliked shopping41.We know from the passage that the team sponsored by inner-city church .A. were well dressedB. paid attention to safetyC. couldn’t afford helmetsD. feared Kevin’s team42.The underlined that in the last paragraph refers to _______.A. the envelop on the treeB. the note inside the envelopC. the gifts I sent to churchD. what the writer had done43.Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?A.

A Christmas CardC①The Dream It is everyone’s dream to work at home or not work at all．You can plan your own hours and work when you want to．There is no more rush hour and no hours that people waste when they get to and from a job every day．②The Fact The fact is that this dream can be attained．You can stay at home，work when you want to and make money when you need to．There are plenty of opportunities for you to make money at home，just by using your computer and the Internet．③Start Today! Educate yourself，look closely into all the opportunities and decide on what works best for you．It will not happen during one night，but you can make the decision today and start to make it happen today．④How Could You Do It? Do you have a blog（博客）or a personal website like millions of other people? Are you using it to make money? Most of these blog and website owners are not．But you can do that!⑤When you have your computer and the Internet working for you，your businesses will be working for you 24 hours a day，seven days a week．You will make money while you sleep，travel or do whatever you want to do all day long．⑥Get Going!

B．By giving reasons only.C．By showing a topic and giving solutions D．By telling old storiesDThe weather is getting hotter. You are thirsty playing basketball or riding home from school. A cold drink may be just the thing. But be careful what you are drinking. Something that looks cool may not be good for your health.There are plenty of "energy drinks" on the market. Most of them have beautiful colors and cool names. The lists on them tell you they are helpful to your health. Sounds great!But after a careful check you may find that most energy drinks have lots of caffeine (咖啡因) in them. These drinks are especially aimed at young people, students, busy people and sports players. Makers sometimes say their drinks make you better at sports and can keep you awake. But be careful not to drink too much.Caffeine makes your heart beat fast. Because of this, the International Olympic Committee has limited( 限制) its use. Caffeine in most energy drinks is at least as strong as that in a cup of coffee or tea. Possible health dangers have something to do with energy drinks. Just one box of energy drink can make you nervous, have difficulty sleeping and can even cause heart problems. Scientists say that teenagers should be discouraged from taking drinks with a lot of caffeine in them.48.

2016年公共英语三级模拟试题及答案（第一套）
Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions： There are three passages in this part. 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 and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through center. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage： After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. (76) The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. (77)If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep! 1. A good title for this passage is —— .A. SleepB. Good HealthC. DreamsD. Work and Rest 2. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means —— .A. sickB. stand upC. asleepD. a little sleepy 3. This passage suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you ——.A. dream more oftenB. have poor healthC. nervousD. breathe quickly 4. During REM,—— .A. your eyes move quicklyB. you are restlessC. you dreamD. both A and B 5. The average number of hours of sleep that an adult needs is—— .A. approximately six hoursB. about eight hoursC. around ten hoursD. not stated here Passage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage： Obviously television has both advantages and disadvantages. (78)In the first place, television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a comparatively cheap one. With a TV set in the family people don't have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre, the cinema, or the opera. All they have to do is to push a button or turn a knob, and they can see plays, films, operas and shows of every kind. Some people, however, think that this is where the danger lies. The television viewers need to nothing. He does not even have to use his legs if he has a remote control. He makes no choice and exercises, no judgment. He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort on his part. Television, it is often said, keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics. The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one's sitting room. It could be argued that theradio performs this service as well; but on television everything is much more living, much more real. Yet here again there is a danger. The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us. (79)We get so used to looking at the movements on it, so dependent on its pictures, that it begins to control our lives. People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and that they have actually begun to talk to each other again. It makes one think, doesn't it? There are any other arguments for and against television. We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad. It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society. 6. What is the major function of paragraph 1? A. To arouse the reader's concern B. To introduce the theme of the whole passage C. To summarize the whole passage D. To sate the primary uses of TV 7. Television, as a source of entertainment, is .A. not very convenientB. very expensiveC. quite dangerousD. relatively cheap 8. Why are some people against TV? A. Because TV programs are not interesting B. Because TV viewers are totally passive C. Because TV prices are very high. D. Because TV has both advantages and disadvantages 9. One of the most obvious advantages of TV is that .A. it keeps up informedB. it is very cheapC. it enables us to have a restD. it controls our lives 10. According to the passage, whether TV is good or not depends on .A. its qualityB. people's attitude towards itC. how we use itD. when we use it Passage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage： Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security. As a result, they are employed doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction. (80)Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care that they do as long as they can earn a living. Some stay long at a job and learn to like it; others quit form one to another looking for something to suit them. The young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation. Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities. The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution. Nearly all grope (摸索) in the dark and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what salary is like. They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them. Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment. It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of friends, leisure and interest. In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest. Nothing is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin your talents and ultimately make you an emotional wreck (受到严重伤害的⼈) and a bitter person. 11. The reason why some people are unlikely to succeed in life is that they .A. have ruined their talentsB. have taken on an unsuitable jobC. think of nothing but their salaryD. are not aware of their own potential 12. The difficulty in choosing a suitable job lies mainly in that . A. much competition has to be faced B. many employees have no working experience C. the young people only care about how much they can earn D. schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance 13. Which of the following statements is most important according to the passage? A. Your job must suit your interest. B. Your job must set a pattern of life. C. Your job must offer you a high salary. D. Your job must not ruin your talents. 14. The best title for this passage would be .A. What Can A Good Job Offer.B. Earning A LivingC. Correct Attitude On Job-huntingD. How To Choose A Job 15. The word "pathetic" in Paragraph 2 most probably means .A. splendidB. miserableC. disgustedD. touching Part Ⅱ Vocabulary and Structure (30%) Directions： In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences. For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 16.

全国英语等级考试三级模拟题及答案（3）2016年全国英语等级考试三级模拟题及答案 Section Ⅲ Reading Comprehension (40 minutes) Part A Directions : Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Markyour answers on ANSWER SHEETl. Text 1 It was fifteen past nine as Marie hurried into the office building where she was going to work.Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day. Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one going to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked "Smith Enter- prises" , she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no answer. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the door and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had the interview with Mr. Smith, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. In the front of the room, somebody must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her. Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others.Quickly they all went to their desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wait for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the day's work in the office began just before Mr. Smith arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9:35,so that his staff knew exactly when to start working. 46. Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because _ . [A] it was her first day in a new job [B] she was a little bit late for work [C] she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong place [D] there was no answer from inside the office 47. Marie could hardly recognize the office she went into as . [A] she had been there only once [B] Mr. Smith was not in the office [C] nobody was doing any work [D] the office had a new appearance 48. The people in the office suddenly started working because . [A] they saw a stranger in the office [B] their morning break was ended [C] no one wanted to talk to Marie [D] the boss was about to arrive 49. We can infer from the text that the employees of the enterprise . . [A] would start their work by listening to a joke . [B] were cold to newcomers [C] were always punctual for work [D] lacked devotion to the company 50. The best title for this text would be. . [A] Punctual Like a Clock [B] A Cold Welcome [C] An Unpunctual Manager [D] Better Late Than Never Text 2 For most of us, dieting is a frustrating fact of life. With so much conflicting nutritional information about, it can be difficult to tell which weight-loss strategies really work. Let' s start by discounting these confusing myths. 1. All calories are created equal What you eat, not how much, is the main factor behind weight gain, according to research.Calories from fat pack on the pounds. The reason: during digestion, the body burns many more calories metabolizing protein and carbohydrates than it does metabolizing fat. 2. Desserts are taboo Cakes, pies and ice cream can sensibly be worked into a diet, the expert says. Moderation is the key. CVt down on other meals if you'll be eating out at a restaurant known for its rich sweets.Or indulge, but take only a few bites. 3. Fast foods are forbidden A plain hamburger on a bun is still a healthful choice. So is grilled chicken or a green salad with low-cal dressing. But watch out for French fries, milkshakes and batter-dipped chicken or fish. 4. Fasting is the fastest diet Some studies suggest that drastically reducing calorie intake switches the body into a " starvation mode", which conserves calories and decreases your metabolic rate. The more frequently you deprive yourself of food, the better your body may get at storing calories. So, in the long run, repeated fasting may actually undermine your weight-loss efforts. 5. To keep weight off, simply watch what you eat . According to experts, exercise combined with dieting ensures weight Joss better than dieting alone does. Experts also agree that sticking with regular, moderate exercise is more important that occasional vigorous workouts are. Obesity-researcher Kelly Brownell encourages patients to make a series of small physical efforts: taking the stairs instead of the elevator and parking the car far from where you are going and walking. Most important, before getting caught up in dietary myths, let good sense shape your eating habits. Your body will thank you for it. 51. It cannot be inferred from the first paragraph that _ . [A] the information about dieting is always- contradictory [B] there are too many weight-loss strategies to choose from [C] dieting is always troublesome to most people [D] people should not believe the ideas of dieting 52. One of the elements to gain weight is _ . [A] the amount of the food you eat [B] over sleeping [C] laziness [D] the kind of food you eat 53. Which of the following saying is true about dieting? [A] You can't eat sweets. [B] Fast foods are not good. [C] You should not neglect any meals. [D] Fasting is always helpful 54. The phrase "starvation mode" means . [A] being very hungry [B] eating what you like when you are hungry [C] weight-loss efforts [D] being ready to eat 55. The word "shape" in the last sentence means . [A] break [B] form [C] get rid of [D] change。

公共英语三级（PETS3）模拟真题试卷附答案（2）2016年公共英语三级(PETS3)模拟真题试卷（附答案）[D]all of the aboveText 3Fishing adds only about one percent to the global economy, but on a regional basis it can contribute extremely to human survival. Marine fisheries contribute more t the world’s supply of protein than beef, poultry or any other animal source.Fishing typically does not need land ownership, and because it remains, generally, open to all, itis often the employer of last resort in the developing world an occupation when there are no otherchoices. Worldwide, about 200 million people rely on fishing for their livelihoods. Within Southeast Asia alone, over five million people fish full time. In northern Chile forty percent of the populationlives off the ocean. In Newfoundland most employment came from fishing or servicing that indus-try--until the collapse of the cod fisheries in the early 1990s that left tens of thousands of people outof work.Though debates over the conservation of natural resources are often cast as a conflict betweenjobs and the environment ,the restoration of fish populations would i fact boost employment. MichaelP. Sissenwine and Andrew A. Rosenberg of the U.S. National Marine Fisheries Service have esti-mated that if depleted species were allowed to rebuild to their long term potential, their sustainable use would add about $8 billion to the U.S. gross domestic product and provide about 300,000 jobs. Iffish poupulations were restored and properly managed, about twenty million metric tons could be added to: the world’s annual catch. But restoration of ecological balance, fiscalprofitability (收益) andeconomic security will require a continual reduction in the capacity of the commercial fishing industryso that wild populations can recover.The necessary reductions in fishing workforce need not come at the expense of jobs. Governments could increase employment and reduce the pressure on fish populations by guiding subsidies away from highly mechanised ships. For each $1,000,000 of investment, industrial scale fishing operations require only one to five people, while small scale fisheries would employ between 60 and 3,000. Industrial fishing itself threatens tens of millions of fishermen working on a small scale by depleting the fish on which they depend for subsistence.56. The animal source which provides the most protein for human being is________[A]beef[B]fish[C]pork[D]chicken57. Paragraph 2 indicates that________[A]most of man’s employment is from fishing[B]man can always turn to fishing for employment[C]forty percent of Chileans live on fishing boats or ships[D]fishing has been the biggest industry in Newfoundland58. In the conflict between jobs and the environment,the author takes sides with those who are in favour of________[A]increasing the annual catch[B]creating more jobs[C]getting greater fiscal profitability[D]conserving natural resources59. The balance between jobs and the environment can bekept if____[A]fishing capacity is further increased[B]fishing jobs are further increased[C]fewer well-equipped fishing ships are used[D]fewer species are allowed to rebuild60. The passage suggests that making less use of modern technology may________[A]reduce pressure on fish populations[B]threaten the world’s annual catch[C]increase government's investment[D]cost tens of thousands of fishermen’s jobsPaula:The furore is determined by the actions of the present day. The responsibility we have for the fu-ture begins when we recognize that we ourselves create the future-that the future is not somethingimposed upon us by fate or other forces beyond our control. We ourselves build the future boththrough what we do and what we do not do.Mrs. John:The future will see more unbelievable things. In the future, people will be able to predict theirperformance from the strength of the brain’s electrical activity. Doctor Kramer has found that thestrength of the brain’s electrical activity can be measured through the scalp (头皮). Bosses couldmeasure brain activity through the scalp and tell whether a worker is performing well, working hard,or too tired to do the job properly.Mary:In the new century, things around us will be more fascinating. The chemical element in the heart issaid to increase your desire for fat, when is stimulated. This means that disturbances of thischemical ge-latin can lead to overeating. Doctor Sarah Leibowits presented an academic paper suggesting that the ap-petite for fat rich food can be controlled through drugs that block the effects of gelatin.Judy:In the future our life will change dramatically. It is quite certain that computers will play animportant part in our life. You will visit your doctor, and find that he uses a computer screen andvisual information about your condition, instead of his text books. Computers in your home will enable you to answer interactive questions about your health and show the alternative results whichwill affect you if you act in a certain way.Carrie:In the future, computers will change the way the doctors diagnose and treat their patients. Alsodoctors will change their traditional notion of medicine. Although pills for tension, heart conditions, being overweight and other life threatening conditions are prescribed by western doctors, most doctors now require patients to focus on healthy way of living by changing diets and doingmore exercise as a means to keep fit.Now match each of the items (61 to 65) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61.

Please write a notice entitled "No Smoking" to put on the carriages of a train. You should use approximately 100 words. It may include the following points:1) no smoking in the carriages. Smoking is only permitted in the Smoking Area.2) smoking is not only bad for smokers' health but also bad for people around them.3) anyone who smokes in the carriages will be fined.Part B67.

And in different countries it has different meanings. Butwhen British people say that their society is based on family life, they are thinking of "family"in itsnarrow, peculiarly European sense of mother, father and children living together in their own houseas an economic and social unit. Thus, every British marriage indicates the beginning of a new and in-dependent family--hence the tremendous importance of marriage in British life. For both man andwoman, marriage means leaving one’s parents and starting one’s own life. The man’s first duty willthen be to his wife, and the wife’s to her husband. He will be entirely responsible for her financialsupport, and she for the running of the new home. Their children will be their common responsibilityand their alone. Neither the wife’s parents nor the husband’s, nor their brothers or sisters, aunts oruncles, have any right to interfere with them-they are their own masters. Readers of novels likeJane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice will know that in former times, marriage among wealthy families were arranged by the girl’s parents, that is, it was the "parents' duty tofind a suitable husband for their daughter, preferably a rich one, and by skillful encouragement tolead him eventually to ask their permission to marry her. Until that time, the girl was protected andmaintained in the parents' home, and the financial relief of getting rid of her could be seen in theirgiving the newly married pair a sum of money called a dowry (嫁妆). It is very different today.Most girls of today get a job when they leave school and become financially independent before theirmarriage. This has had two results. A girl chooses her own husband, and she gets no dowry. Everycoin has two sides; independence for girls is no exception. But it may be a good thing for all of thegirls, as their social status are much higher and they are no longer the subordinate(部下，下级) oftheir parents and husbands. 46. What does the author mean by "Family is of course an elastic word"? [A]Different families have different ways of life. [B]Different definitions could be given to the word. [C]Different nations have different families. [D]Different times produce different families. 47. For an English family, the husband’s duty is________ [A]supporting the family while the wife is working out [B]defending the family while the wife is running the home [C]providing financial support while the wife is running the home [D]independent while his wife is also independent 48. Everything is decided in a family________ [A]by the couple [B]with the help of their parents [C]by brothers and sisters [D]with the help of aunts and uncles 49. What is TRUE conceming the book Pride and Prejudice? [A]It is the best book on marriage. [B]It is a handbook on marriage. [C]It gives some idea of English social life in the past. [D]It provides a lot of information of former-time wealthy families. 50. With regard to marriage in Britain, present-day girls differ from former-time girls in________ [A]the right family [B]more parental support [C]choosing husbands [D]social position Text 2 Steveland Morris is a household name in America. Ask Steveland Morris and he' 11 tell you thatblindness is not necessarily disabling. Steveland was born prematurely(过早地, 不到期地) and total-ly without sight in 1950s. He became Stevie Wonder composer, singer, and pianist. The winner often Grammy awards, Stevie is widely acclaimed(喝彩) for his outstanding contributions to the musicworld. As a child, Stevie learned not to think about the things he could not do, but to concentrate onthe things that he could do. His parents encouraged him to join in his sighted brothers as many activi-ties as possible. They also helped him to sharpen his sense of heating, the sense upon which the usu-ally disabled are so dependent. Because sound was so important to him. Stevie began at an early age to experiment with differ-ent kinds of sound. He would bang things together and then imitate the sound with his voice. Oftenrelying on sound for entertainment, he sang, beat on toy drums, played a toy harmonica(⼝琴) ,andlistened to the radio. Stevie soon graduated from toy instruments to real instruments. He first learned to play thedrums. He then mastered the harmonica and the piano. He became a member of the junior churchchoir(唱诗班) and a lead singer. In the evenings and on weekends, Stevie would play different in-struments and sing popular rhythm and blues tunes on the front porches (⾛廊) of neighbors' homes.One of Stevie’s sessions was overheard by Ronnie White, a member of a popular singing groupcalled The Miracles. Ronnie immediately recognized Stevie’s talent and took him to audition (试听)for Berry Gordy, the president of Hitsville USA, a large recording company now known as Motown.Stevie recorded his first smash hit "Fingertips" in 1962 at age twelve, and the rest of Stevie’s story ismusic history. 51. This passage could be entitled________ [A]The Music World [B]Stevie Wonder [C]Great Musicians [D]Blind People 52. Which of the following is NOT true about Stevie's childhood? [A]Stevie often told people that a blind person was not necessarily disabled. [B]He learnt to concentrate on things that he could do. [C]He played as often as possible with his brother, who had normal sight. [D]He tried very hard to train his sense of heating. 53.

But you have got to be careful of what kind of food you eat.Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning.You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitement in that.The seat of course,has become harder as the hours have passed.By now you have sat with your legs crossed,with your hands in your lap,with your hands on the armrest seven with your hands crossed behind your head.The end comes just at no more ways to sit.31.According to the passage,what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A.Buses on the road.B.Films on television.C.Advertisements on the billboards.D.Gas stations.32.What is the purpose of this passage?A.To give the writer’s opinion about long bus trips.B.To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C.To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D.To describe the billboards along the road.33.The writer of this passage would probably favor.A.bus drivers who are not recklessB.driving aloneC.a television set on the busD.no billboards along the road34.The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows because.A.the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB.they both have a beginning,a middle,and an end,with commercials in betweenC.the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD.both traveling and watching TV are not exciting.35.The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both are.A.excitingfortableC.tiringD.boringBJames Cleveland Owens was the son of a farmer and the grandson of black slaves. His family moved to Cleveland when he was9.There,a school teacher asked the youth his name."J.C.,"he replied.She thought he had said"Jesse",and he had a new name.Owens ran his first race at age13.After high school,he went to Ohio State University.He had to work part time so as to pay for his education.As a second year student,in the Big Ten games in1935,he set even more records than he would in the Olympic Games a year later.A week before the Big Ten meet,Owens accidentally fell down a flight of stairs. His back hurt so much that he could not exercise all week,and he had to be helped in and out of the car that drove him to the meet.He refused to listen to the suggestions that he give up and said he would try,event by event.He did try,and the results are in the record book.The stage was set for Owens victory at the Olympic Games in Berlin the next year,and his success would come to be regarded as not only athletic but also political.Hitler did not congratulate any of the African American winners."It was all right with me,"he said years later."I didn t go to Berlin to shake hands with him,anyway."Having returned from Berlin,he received no telephone calls from the president of his own country,either.In fact,he was not honored by the United States until 1976,four years before his death.Owens Olympic victories made little difference to him.He earned his living by looking after a school playground,and accepted money to race against cars,trucks, motorcycles and dogs."Sure,it bothered me,"he said later."But at least it was an honest living.I had to eat."In time,however,his gold medals changed his life."They have kept me alive over the years,"he once said."Time has stood still for me.That golden moment dies hard."36.Owens got his other name"Jesse"when.A.he went to Ohio State UniversityB.his teacher made fun of himC.his teacher took"J.C."for"Jesse"D.he won gold medals in the Big Ten meet37.In the Big Ten meet，Owens.A.hurt himself in the backB.succeeded in setting many recordsC.tried every sports event but failedD.had to give up some events38.We can infer from the text that Owens was treated unfairly in the US at that time because.A.he was not of the right raceB.he was the son of a poor farmerC.he didnˊt shake hands with HitlerD.he didnˊt talk to the US president on the phone39.When Owens says"They have kept me alive over the years",he means that the medals.A.have been changed for money to help him live onB.have made him famous in the USC.have encouraged him to overcome difficulties in lifeD.have kept him busy with all kinds of jobs40.What would be the best title for the text?A.Jesse Owens,A Great American AthleteB.Golden Moment—A Life time StruggleC.Making A Living As A SportsmanD.How To Be A Successful Athlete解析：31.A全文都是作者表述对乘车长途旅行中的广告的意见和看法。

Firstof all, watching TV is a good kind of rest. After a day‟s hard work, we needa good rest. Watching TV can make our mind and body not tired any more becauseof the pleasant music and TV plays.Besides, watching TV is entertaining. There are many kinds of entertainment, such as sports activities, singing and dancing concerts, playsand films of every part of the world. It‟s not possible for us to go to every place to enjoy all the activities within a short time. We need at 1east over页脚ten hours to drive from Queens District to Manhattan District.But within just one second, TV can bring us from an NBA game in New York to a fashion show in Paris by changing the channels (频道).Most importantly, watching TV is educational. Our children can learn every kind of subject through the educational programs and the special reports on TV, and it‟s easy for them to learn Chinese from a Chinese teacher in Beijing and to learn Russian from a Russian teacher in Moscow. We can even learn how to behave well from the TV plays. Meanwhile, a teacher on TV can teach millions of students without a huge classroom.16. The writer wrote the text to （） .A. show her ideas about TVB. persuade us to buy a TVC. introduce some TV programsD. tell us how to learn from TV programs17. The best title for the text is （） .A.

TV brings different parts of world in front of usC. how to go to different places and enjoy ourselvesD. how long it will take a person to drive to different placesPassage 2Many students trying to increase their effective reading speed become discouraged when they find that if they try to race through a passage faster, they fail to take in what they have read. At the end, they have been so busy …reading faster‟that they cannot remember what the passage was about. The problem here is that the material they are practicing on is either too difficult for them in vocabulary or content, or not sufficiently interesting. We hope that the passages in this course material will be both interesting and fairly easy, but you should also practice as much as you can in your own time. Read things you like reading. Go to the subject catalogue in the library. Biography, sport, domestic science, the cinema .... there is bound to be some area that interests you and in which you can find books of about your level of ability or just below.If you want a quick check on how easy a book is, read through three or four pages at random. If there are, on average, more than five or six words on each page that are completely new to you, then the book is not suitable for reading-speed improvement.21. This passage is mainly about how to__________.A) use the passages in a reading course B) develop reading comprehension C) improve reading speed D) make a good use of the library22. The expression “books of about your level of ability ...” in paragraphI is closest in meaningto __________.A) the books about your ability B) the books about your height C) the books that you could find D) the books that you can understand23.

But is this habit bad for our health, or does it do a body good?Several recent studies indicate that this popular beverage actually has an array of health benefits. According to researchers, coffee has been demonstrated to reduce the risk of several common medical illnesses---the most important of these is Type 2 diabetes, but also suicide, some forms of cancer and neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson's disease and Alzheimer's disease.Researchers found that when people imbibed four to six cups of java per day, versus only two or fewer, their risk for Type 2 diabetes decreased by almost 30 percent. The number decreased by 35 percent when people drank more than six cups per day.In another study, scientists found that through some mechanism a bitter tasting white powder formed after roasting coffee reduced patients' cravings for highly addictive substances like cocaine and heroine. This chemical helps the brain regulate the experiences of pleasure and pain.Caffeine, the most famous component of coffee, is also one of the more controversial ingredients in this popular beverage. It causes an increase in the activity of the neurotransmitter dopamine, which largely accounts for both caffeine's stimulating effects and its ability to diminish feelings of depression.However, some researchers have found that the caffeine in a cup of coffee has considerable negative health effects. One study indicated that coffee decreases the flow of blood to the heart. Other studies have found that caffeine in coffee can also cause heart palpitation, increased blood pressure and stress. In addition, researchers pointed out that pregnant women should limit their caffeine intake because fetuses are sensitive to it. Based on these studies, we can see that coffee may improve a person's mood( at least temporarily) and decrease risk for certain diseases---good news for coffee adults. But it also appears to have some harmful effects. The final conclusion on coffee is yet to be drawn.26. According to the passage, which of the following are less likely to suffer from Type 2 diabetes. （）A. people who hardly drink any coffee.B. people who drink only two cups of coffee per day.C. people who drink four to six cups of coffee a day.D. people who drink more than six cups of coffee a day.27. Drinking coffee might be good for （） .A. people addicted to cocaineB. people with heart diseaseC. pregnant womenD. little babies28. Drinking coffee might lead to all of the following EXCEPT （） .A. higher blood pressure.B. more sensitive nerveC. irregular heartbeat.D. less blood to the heart.29. According to the passage ,which of the following is NOT TRUE?. （）A. Coffee drinking is very popular among Americans.页脚页脚B. researchers have not reached a final conclusion about coffee.C. Evidence shows that coffee can reduce the risk of certain heart diseases.D. coffee drinking might make people less likely to suffer from Parkinson ‟s disease. 30.Which of the following is the best title of the passage?. A. Another Cup of coffee? Why not? B. Is Coffee Good or Bad for Your Health? C. For Your Own Benefits, Drink More Coffee! D. For Your Health, Avoid Coffee! Passage 4 The year was 1932.
