This was stated by a news report broadcast recently.“When it comes to the American family, public attention tends to __31__ far more on what’s wrong than what’s right,” according to Dr. Kristin Anderson Moors and colleagues at the not-for-profit child support group Child Trends.They found strong evidence that __32__ families --- including those living in difficult situations --- have unique strengths that enable them to do a good job of raising their __33__ and supporting one another.In addition to TV shows, films, magazines and books delight in tales of battling brother and sisters, arguments between husbands and wives, __34__ childhoods and other problems. But do these represent the __35__ American family?In their study, Moore and her colleagues compared information from two government studies, which were based on interviews with more than 45,000 people __36__ age 18.Most families have a strong sense of __37__. A full 72% of teenagers said that they sat down for dinner with their __38__ “at least 5 days a week,: and four out of five kids said that they __39__ jobs around the house on a regular basis.

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 choose the best answer to each question based on the passage. Passage OneIf you ask technical companies what particular software or networking skills they’re looking for, you will not learn anything new.But ask what kinds of people tech companies are trying hardest to hire, and the answers become more complicated. Asked to state their No. 1 need, two-thirds of the 79 companies responding listed technical skills first, let by Web and database programming skills.But one-third included non-technical talents, either general business skills or personal qualities. For example Joe Samson of ITNet said, “We try to go after people who will work hard to develop successful products and then introduce and maintain them.”Other employers in the survey also looked beyond programming or network-building skills. For instance, StayWare, which makes fiber-optic network equipment, said it wants to hire people with “an ability to deal with change and to work closely with others” to get things done.41According to this article, the most important skill to technical companies is ______.a. knowledge of softwareb. business skillc.

By taking the shuttle, travelers have no parking fees, no long walks carrying luggage and no worry about driving in snow, rain or heavy traffic. The Shuttle picks up and delivers from four different Bloomington locations leaving the city nine times a day beginning at 4:40 a.m. and ending at 8:40 p.m. For the return trip, the shuttle leaves the airport nine times a day beginning at 6:40 a.m. and ending at 10:40 p.m., making sure you never have to wait long for a ride. Return shuttles also deliver to four convenient locations in town. Each passenger is allowed two suitcases and one carry-on piece of luggage, which is stored in a safe luggage compartment. Extra baggage and over-large objects are transported for an additional fee.Bloomington Shuttle’s drivers are all experienced professionals. Only drivers with a minimum of two years of commercial driving experience and proper state licensing are considered. Even with the experience, drivers receive an intensive training course to meet high expectations of safety, quality and service. By taking a shuttle, travelers can be free from fear of damage done to their cars left in remote airport parking lots and do not have to walk through dark, empty parking lots or garages.45.

They have a history of two years’ safe drivingb. they have taken a thorough training coursec. they have a driver’s license issued by the stated. they have experience in commercial drivingPassage ThreeNo species more clearly represents America’s changing view of wildlife than the gray wolf. From the first arrivals of settlers in the 1600s until only the last couple of decades, wolves were generally viewed as a dangerous threat in this country. Evidence of this is found in the laws passed in both the colonies and later the states, which provided for a cash payment for each wolf skin turned over to local officials. Not only were such laws a means of obtaining much needed money, but it also encouraged the use of the wolf’s fur as clothing. This double benefit to the hunters succeeded in effectively wiping out the wolf population in most regions of the country. By 1950, wolves had been done away with everywhere in the lower 48 states exceptin the wildest part of northern Minnesota. This was the result of efforts to kill all wolves.Most people now recognize the mistake of this persecution and understand the value of such vicious animals as the wolf within the wildlife community. The National Wildlife Federation has led the fight to get the government to pass a law protecting the wolf, in order to increase the population of the animal steadily. As a result, Congress has passed a law including this animal under the Endangered Species Act. Between 150 and 200 wolves are now wandering freely in Yellowstone National Park and the NWF is now working with both public and private organizations to make sure that wolves will be able to live in suitable habitats elsewhere in the country.49.According to the passage, most American wolves lived in 1950 ______a. in the lower 48 statesb. in northern Minnesotac. everywhere except Minnesotad. Yellowstone National Park50.In the second paragraph, “the mistake of this persecution” refers to ______.a. America’s changing view of wildlifeb. early settlers’ occupying of landc. America’s killing of wolvesd. people’s little knowledge of wildlife51.The major result of the NWF’s efforts for the wolves is ______.a)the preservation of wolves in Minnesotab)the steady increase of the wolf populationc)the fight with large vicious animalsd)the American view that wolves should be killed52.The word “habitats” in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.a. groupsb. placesc. seasonsd. periodsPassage FourBefore the mid-nineteenth century, people in the United States ate most foods only in season. Drying, smoking, and salting could preserve meat for a short time, but the availability of fresh meat, like that of fresh ilk, was very limited there ws no way to prevent food from going bad. But in 1810 a French inventor named Nicolas Appert developed the cooking-and-sealing process of condensing and preserving milk. Canned goods and condensed milk became more common during the 1860’s, but supplies remained low because cans had to be made by hand, By 1880, however, inventors had built machines that made it possible to produce cans from tinplates in large numbers Suddenly all kinds of food could be preserved and bought at all times of the year.Other trends and inventions had also helped make it possible for Americans to vary their daily diets. Growing city populations created a demand that encouraged fruit and vegetable farmers to raise more produce. Railroad refrigeration cars enabled growers and meat packers to ship perishables great distances and to preserve them for longer periods. Thus, by the 1890’s, people living in northern cities could enjoy southern and western strawberries, grapes, and tomatoes, previously available for a month at most, for up to six months of the year. In addition, increased use oficeboxes enabled families to store perishables. An easy means of producing ice commercially had been invented in the 1870’s, and by 1900 the nation had more than two thousand commercial ice plants, most of which made home deliveries. The icebox became a fixture in most homes and remained so until the mechanized refrigerator takes its place in the 1920’s and 1930’s.53.This passage mainly discusses ______.a)causes of food going badb)commercial production of icec)inventions that led to changes in the American dietsd)population movements in the nineteenth century54.According to the author, in the 1920’s and 1930’s home deliveries of ice ______.a. decreased in numberb. were on an irregular schedulec, increased in cost d. occurred only in the summer55.All the following preservations are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT ______.a. dryingb. canningc. cold storaged. using chemicals56.The word “fixture” in the last sentence of the 2nd paragraph is closest in meaningto ______.a. equipmentb. foodc. growerd. deliveryPartV TranslationDirection：Translate the following sentences into English：1.期末考试后，我们终于可以抽出时间来打扫宿舍了。

电子科技大学网络教育考卷（A1卷）(20 年至20 学年度第学期)考试时间年月日(120分钟) 课程综合英语2 教师签名程凯文Part I Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning) (10 %)Directions: In this part, you will have 15 minutes to go over the passage quickly and answer the questions on Answer sheet 1. For questions 1-7, choose the best answer from the four choices marked ABCD, for questions 8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.Wind EnergyWind energy development has been thriving both in the United States and around the world. This reflects not only the declining cost of the resource and the improved performance of wind power plants, but also a growing awareness among utilities and other potential customers that this renewable energy technology offers many benefits for the economy and the environment.• Wind energy can help create new business and jobs, keep energy dollars circulating in local economies and reduce reliance on imported energy.• Wind energy can help protect utilities and ratepayers from risks associated with changing fuel prices, new environmental regulations, uncertain load growth and other unpredictable costs.• Wind energy can reduce a utility’s pollutant emissions, helping power companies meet environmental regulations, uncertain growth and other unpredictable costs.In the past, these benefits were not enough to outweigh the significant costs and technological uncertainties associated with wind energy; now that the technology has proven reliable and competitive, however, they are beginning to carry more weight. The greatest challenge for the future is to ensure that the benefits of wind energy continue to receive attention as the utility industry moves toward increased competition in the generation and marketing of power.How does wind energy contribute to the economy?Electricity is an essential ingredient of our modern way of life; it runs our computers, appliances, factories and businesses. Without low-cost power, our standard of living would suffer. But electricity generation is also a major source of pollution and toxic wastes. Wind energy offers a way to meet the needs of both the economy and the environment by providing a source of clean, competitively priced power.Wind energy helps our economy in important ways. For communities and states in which wind power facilities are located, wind power plants create jobs, generate income and support economic development. Several studies have established that wind energy produces more jobs per dollar in-vested or per kilowatt-hour generated than most conventional resource. A New York study, for example, found that producing 10 million kilowatt-hours of electricity from wind energy generates27 percent more jobs in the state than producing the same amount of energy from an advanced coal plant and 66 percent more jobs than from a natural gas combined-cycle power plant. One reason is that much of the expense for fossil-fuel plants is incurred from buying fuel, which supports fewer jobs than other industry sectors, especially when the fuel is imported from other states or countries.Wind power plants also pay substantial property taxes and land rents. A typical rent payment is a small percentage of a plant's revenues, implying that a wind plant located in an agricultural area can boost cropland rents and prices by as much as 50 percent to 100 percent. For the most part, farming operations can continue unaffected.States and communities with the foresight to invest in wind energy can reap another benefit by fostering a home-grown wind industry that can export power to other regions. The market for wind power worldwide is growing rapidly. New companies that capture this market will develop in areas where substantial wind development already is occurring. Until the late 1980s, this was mainly California; recently, however, the United States has ceded (转让) its early lead in wind development to European competitors. Prudent(有先见之明的) investments in the domestic wind market can help reverse this trend.What are the advantages of wind power plants?Most consumers like to avoid risk —the chance that something they need, no matter how inexpensive today, will become much more costly tomorrow. Fixed-rate mortgages owe much of their popularity to this characteristic. While other loan packages may be less expensive in the short-term, many homeowners like the comfort of knowing that their monthly mortgage bill will never increase. Like a fixed rate mortgage, investing in wind energy offers an effective strategy for managing risk, a way of buying an insurance policy against the ups and downs of the power market. It is especially effective against three kinds of risk: environmental regulation, fuel price volatility (不稳定，波动) and load-growth uncertainty.The typical wind power plant takes less than a year to build, once the site is selected and licenses and permits approved. By contrast, conventional large power plants may take three to four years to build with the result that if loads do not increase as expected, a utility may be left with a substantial excess cost.Another advantage of wind power plants is that they can be built in phases timed according to need. Finally, interest costs are lower during the construction of wind projects.Does wind energy produce pollution?Opinion polls rank wind as one of the most popular energy resources, far ahead of fossil fuels and nuclear power. The reason is simple: it produces no pollution or hazardous wastes. This is a very real benefit, for pollution can have a serious effect on our health, the economy and our sense of well being. Air pollutants such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particular and volatile organic compounds have been shown to reduce life spans and increase the incidence of debilitating illnesses, especially among the elderly and those with respiratory impairments. Some pollutants, such as sulfur dioxide and ozone, damage wildlife and plants and even reduce crop yields. Finally, greenhouse gases (which are emitted primarily by fossil-fuel combustion (燃烧)) are implicated in global warming, which may cause major changes in climate during the next several decades.Wind power's popularity with the public can be a competitive advantage for power companies that invest in this technology. Municipal utilities, large industrial consumers, and perhaps even residential consumers in some locations soon may be able to express a preference for clean power by their choice of electricity supplier. Utility-sponsored market surveys show that a significant number of consumers are willing to spend more on their monthly utility bills to purchase power from renewable sources. Companies that want to attract and keep such customers should give careful attention to wind power.Whether utilities continue to be tightly regulated or the industry moves into a more competitive phase,姓名__________________ 专业名称__________________ 班号________________学号__________________教学中心_________________……………… …… … … … … …密………………… …… … … … … ……封……………… …… … … …线… … … …… … … ……………………the significant benefits of wind energy should play an increasingly important role in deciding what kinds of new power plants will be built.In the traditional regulated utility setting, regulators could simply require utilities to consider benefits such as lower pollution, reduced risks and job creation in their resource planning. As competition in the power industry increases, new mechanisms must come into play. On the one hand, the wind industry must aggressively market the benefits of wind power to potential customers. At the same time, state policymakers must take steps to ensure that the move to competition does not jeopardize (使冒危险) the public interests. So long as regulations and the market value environmental protection, long-term price stability, economic development and other benefits, wind power will receive the attention it deserves.1)For wind energy, the greatest challenge for the future is ____________.A.to ensure that wind energy can help create new business and jobsB.to ensure that wind energy can help protect utilities and ratepayers from more risksC.to ensure that the benefits of wind energy continue to receive attentionD.to ensure that the benefits of wind energy are enough to outweigh the significant costs andtechnological uncertainties2)How does wind energy meet the needs of the economy and the environment?A.By providing the improved performance of wind power plants.B.By providing a source of clean, competitively priced power.C.By providing more jobs and economic support.D.By providing potential customers and a source of clean power.3)If states and communities invest in wind energy, they can reap another benefit by ________.A.exporting wind power to other regionsB.reducing the expense for fossil-fuel plantsC.reducing the expense for buying fuelD.importing fuel from other states or countries4)Why are fixed-rate mortgages so popular?A.Because they are inexpensive.B.Because they are against the ups and downs of the power market.C.Because they offer an effective strategy to manage risk.D.Because they are effective against fuel price volatility.5)Compared to building a typical wind power plant, building a conventional power plant may cost moreif ____________________.A.the loads may not increase as expectedB.the site is selected and licenses and permits approvedC.it can be built in phases timedD.most consumers want to avoid risk6)Wind is considered as one of the most popular energy resources ____________________.A.because wind power plants take less than a year to buildB.because it is environment-friendlyC.because investing in wind energy offers an effective way to manage riskD.because it is inexpensive7)Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage?A.The advantages of wind power to the investors.B.The advantages of wind power to the economy.C.The advantages of wind power to the environment.D.The advantages of wind power to the conventional power plants.8)Wind energy helps our economy by ________________________ and supporting economicdevelopment.9)One of the contributions of wind energy to our economy is that wind power plants_______________________ and land rents.10)When people decide what kind of new power plants will be built, _____________________ wouldplay an important role.Part II Listening Comprehension (25 %)Section ADirections:In this section, you will hear 8 short conversations and 2 long conversations.

Online courses can also benefit traditional students, especially those who want or need to engage in quickened learning or who may need to take an online class because on-campus courses conflict with their work or family schedule.An online student must play an active role in the virtual classroom and understand the important characteristics necessary to succeed. In a cooperative learning environment highly dependent on written dialog and high cooperation, students are able to shape the learning objectives by offering information related to the course content that is directly applicable to their own goals.Attitude, skills and commitment determine whether the student will be good one for the online experience or not, The student must be mature, open-minded, self-motivated, capable of critical thinking, willing to work cooperatively, and trusting in the online experience. Good written communication skills and a minimum level of technological experience are necessary. Finally, the student must commit the time necessary (four to six hours per week) to stay current, and he/she must have access to the necessary equipment.Students usually sit in the back of the classroom and avoid speaking in class become active in the online environment. Participants are more willing to take the chance of written participation than speaking, perhaps partly because they can rethink and write e-mail before sending it. In the online environment, the visual barriers that hinder some people in expressing themselves have largely been made things of the past. (264 words)Questions:S1. What is the main topic of the first paragraph?S2. In order to succeed in an online course, what factors are required for the student?S3. How much time must a student spend on online courses?S4. When students go from sitting in the back of the classroom to entering the virtual classroom, they become _________________________________ to take chances.S5. The virtual classroom largely gets rid of the ________________________ that prevent some students from expressing themselves.Section BDirections:There are 3 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Youshould decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with asingle line through the centre.Passage 1The principles of exercise training discussed above should be viewed as general guidelines. Individuals differ in both physical and psychological adaptations(适应的) to exercise. Two people who are similar in may respects and who start the same exercise program may have entirely different impressions of it. One person may feel that the exercise is too easy, while the other may believe that it is much too hard. It is certainly appropriate that the exercise plan be adjusted to account for preferences. Likewise some individuals will progress to more intense(剧烈的) training levels far more rapidly than others do. As mentioned earlier, exercise progress should be adjusted according to the exerciser’s own judgment.Individuals also differ in the type of exercise they like or can tolerate. Jogging, for instance, is not for everyone. Many people who dislike jogging, or who suffer running injuries, can find other satisfactory exercise activities, such as cycling, walking, swimming, or participating in a sport, Many kinds of exercise activities are appropriate and can provide physical and health benefits to the participant. There is no one best exercise. The important thing is to be regular in exercise participation and to follow the general guidelines outlined in this section.36. This passage concentrates on _________.A.general principles of exercise trainingB.individual differences in adaptation to exerciseC. different types of exercise trainingD.the importance of regular exercise participation37. In the author’s opinion, the exerciser should ___________.A. progress to intense training levels rapidlyB. not participate only in exercise activities they likeC. increase his training level according to his own judgmentD. not follow the general guidelines of exercise training38. What does the word respects (line 3,para.1) mean?A.Admiration.B.Consideration.C. Regards.D. Aspects.39.

In doing exercise, what is important is ________.A. to maintain an intense training levelB. to participate in all kinds of exerciseC. to avoid doing what you don’t likeD. to become a regular exerciserPassage 2The fourth Thursday in November is called Thanksgiving Day. In the United States, it is an annual occasion to show thanks to God for his goodness.As a historical, national and religious holiday, Thanksgiving Day began with the English in Plymouth Colony. As far back as 1621, after a long bitter winter and the gathering of the first harvest, these early settlers shred a feast with the local Indians and offered prayers of thanksgiving. The first national Thanksgiving Day was proclaimed（颁布）by President Washington on November 26,1789. President Lincoln revived the custom in 1863.It was not until 1941 that the U.S Congress adopted a resolution(决定) ,setting the fourth Thursday of November as an annual Thanksgiving Day .Thus what began as a religious celebration of the harvest has become a nationwide holiday.Now Thanksgiving Day is usually a family day, celebrated with a traditional turkey dinner and a happy reunion. Schools are closed on Thanksgiving Day and the day after. Many people, including students in another state, often travel long distances to spend the holiday at home.41. The passage is mainly about ______.A. how the American people spend their Thanksgiving DayB. how Thanksgiving Day came into beingC. what the American people do in their Thanksgiving DayD. when Thanksgiving Day became an American holiday42.

The pattern of the Thanksgiving celebration has not changed though the yeas. The basic traditional fool on Thanksgiving Day is ___.A. milkB. sweet potatoesC. coffeeD. roast turkeyPassage 3In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence. (260 words)46. What is the main idea of this passage? __________A. It is not customary to telephone someone in the morning and in sleeping hours in the U.S.B. The role of time in social life over the world.C. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.D. Not every country treats the concept of time as the same.47. What does it mean in the passage if you call someone during his or her sleeping hours? __________A. A matter of work.B. A matter of life or death.C. You want to see him or her.D. You want to make an appointment with him or her.48. Which of the following time is proper if you want to make an appointment with your friend? __________A. at 7: 00 am.B. at 4:00 pm.C. at the midnight.D. at 4:00 am.49. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? __________A. In the U.S.A guests tend to feel they are highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party isextended only three or four days before the party date.B. There is no misunderstanding arising between people from different cultures about the concept oftime.C. It may be considered foolish to make an appointment well in advance in the U.S.A..D. Promptness is valued highly in American life.50. From the passage we can safely infer that __________.A. it’s a matter of life or death if you call someone in day timeB. the meaning of time differs in different parts of the worldC. it makes no difference in the U.S. whether you are early or late for a business partyD. if a person is late for a date, he needn’t make some explanationPart IV Vocabulary and Structure (15%)Directions: There are 15 incomplete sentences in this part.

Afterthe earthquake, all the newspapers reported many stories about some of the families who were in trouble.One Sunday, when I was reading a newspaper, a special picture touched(触动)me. It gave the clothing sizes of each family member. I thought that this would be a good chance to teach my children to help those who were less lucky than themselves. I said to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Brett, and three-year-old Meghan. “We have so much, and these poor people now have nothing. We’ll share what we have with them.I filled a box with foods and clothes. While I was doing this, I encouraged(鼓励) the boys to choose their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched quietly as the boys took out his old toys and games and put them together. Then she walked away. A few minutes later she came back with Lucy, her much-loved doll. She put the doll on top of the other to ys. “Oh, dear,” I said, “You don’t have to give Lucy. You love her so much.” Meghan said, “ Lucy makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe she’ll make another little girl happy, too.”I looked at Meghan for a long moment. She taught me a lesson. It’s easy to giv e something that we don’t want any more, but harder to give what we cherish(珍爱), isn’t?正确答案:第53题,Passage 2Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of the time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is actually a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male, claims (声称) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same species are welcome. Your house is your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and threaten you, you might shout.Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting (筑巢) season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.正确答案:第54题,英文翻译成中文: Sichuan dishes are enjoyed with great popularity all over the country now.正确答案:第55题,英文翻译成中文ufu enjoys great international prestige for the birth of Chinese ancient culture.正确答案:第56题,英文翻译成中文:Suzhou’s art of gardening has undergone a history of 15,00 years.正确答案:第57题,英文翻译成中文:A food and beverage operation in a hotel usually performs an important mission.正确答案:第58题,英文翻译成中文: Whatever purpose was then in the Pharaohs’ mind, the real value of Pyramids for the human beings is huge.正确答案:第59题,中文翻译成英文:我并不怎么喜欢喝茶,我更喜欢喝咖啡。

Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: There are 3 passages in this section. 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 the centrePassage OneOne of the strongest reasons for the raising of the school leaving age has been that it will bring us nearer to the ideal of “equal opportunity”.Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can fail to become successful when the state system is apparently so thorough. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less rich homes reach university or do well in other ways.Unfortunately, we now have plenty of evidence that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence of all males aged between 18 and 20. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left schools at 15.It has also been shown that percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5,000 children from birth to 21 years old indicated that up to half the bright pupils from working class homes left school when they reached 16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexed, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16.It is clear form this and much other evidence that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit form the prizes----money, social respectability, and interesting jobs, which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social circumstances. Their parents often need the extra money another wage-earner can bring in; they do not value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy. It is not so much that they for ce their sons and daughters to leave school, rather that they tend to say, “it’s up to you.”61.What’s the purpose of raising the school leaving age?A.To provide steps up the ladder of success.B.To provide children with the same chances in society.C.To give children the right to a better school.D.To give children a more thorough state system.62.In people’s eyes, the education system _______.A.provides enough chances to success for childrenB.misses no children who are really cleverC.only provides chances for children from rich familiesD.does not give equal chances to all bright children.63.Working class children are felt to be at a disadvantage because _______.A.many of the clever ones leave school earlyB.fewer go to university than ever beforeC.more than half leave school when they are 16D.fewer boys than girls stay at school after 1664.Many children leave school early because ______.A.their social circumstances make them unhappyB.they have to work to help support their familyC.their school is a dull and unhappy placeD.their parents don’t allow them to make their own decisions65.This article shows that equal opportunity in education _______.C.is a thing of the past B. has not yet been achievedD.is there for those who merit it D. has greatly improved our societyPassage TwoWhat you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives what ---and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries today--- so much that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They’ve given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is a good example of what human warmth means. Whether you gibe a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, its giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.66. The first paragraph is written mainly to tell readers that _____.A.gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB.gifts should be given when you know a person’s personalityC.gifts can show friendship and love between the giver and receiverD.gifts can tell you something about the person who gives them67. A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter _______.A.beautiful clothes to compliment the receiverB. a gift that was made at home by the giverC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD.a gift that matches the character of the giver68. People are especially generous if they give ______.A.a thing not found in one’s countryB. an object that shows warmthC. something unusualD. gifts made by hand69. What kind of message is communicated by a gift of food?A.A supportive oneB. A generous oneC. A creative oneD. An usual one70. If you give a large book as a gift, rather than a small one, it may show that ______.A.you enjoy reading very much and want the receiver to enjoy it tooB.the receiver is interesting in reading a large book of that sortC.you want to share with others a certain feeling or newly learned meaningD.you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contentsPassage ThreeThe standardized educational or psychological tests, which are widely used to aid in selecting, assigning or promoting students, employees and military personnel, have been the target of recent attacks in books, magazines, the daily press, and even in Congress. The target is wrong, for, in attacking the tests, critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users. The tests themselves are merely tools. Whether the results will be valuable, meaningless, or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user.All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance. How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted. Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.Standardized tests should be considered in this context: they provide a quick, objective method of getting some kind of information about what a person has learned, the skills he has developed, or the kind of person he is. The information so obtained has, qualitatively, the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information. Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the empirical evidence concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.In general, the tests work most effectively when the traits or qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined (for example, ability to do well in a particular course of training program) and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined, for example, personality or creativity. Properly used, they provide a rapid means of getting comparable information about many people. Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized.71. In this passage, the author is primarily concerned with _________.A. the necessity of standardized testsB. the validity of standardized testsC. the method used in interpreting the results of standardized tests.D. the theoretical grounds of standardized tests.72. We can infer from the passage that _______.A. standardized tests should no longer be used.B. results of standardized tests accurately reflect the abilities of the testeesC. the value of standardized tests lies in their proper interpretationD. special methods must be applied to the result of standardized tests.73. The word “empirical” (Line 6, Para.3) most probably means “__________”.A. theoreticalB. criticalC. indisputableD. experiential74. According to the passage, standardized tests work most effectively when ___________.A. the user knows how to interpret the results in advance.B. the objectives are most clearly defined.C. the persons who take the test are intelligent or skillful.D. they measure the traits or qualities of the tests75. The author’s attitude toward standardized tests could be described as _______.A. positiveB. criticalC. prejudicedD. indifferent.Part V.

Cloze （15分）When my wife, who is Spanish, spent her first winter in London a few years ago, she used to ask me time and again: “Where’s the fog?” Almost all foreigners 31 to find the city in mist for most of the year. Dickens, who was above all 32 for painting this picture in people’s minds, certainly wasn’t exaggerating in those days. People 33 to say in the nineteenth century that when someone committed suicide by 34 into the Thames he was choked 35 the fog and poisoned by the terrible 36 of the river 37 he had time to drown himself. 38 , the situation has only changed in recent years. When I was a boy in London thirty years ago I was often unable to see the 39 side of the roadwhen I left home 40 winter mornings.The steps that have turned London into a clean city were 41 at the end of the 1950s. But Londoners still find 42 strange that fog seldom returns. The change 43 as a result of two main improvement. Factories had to install clean air equipment, and private householders were not allowed to burn coal 44 it was smoke-free. But the real miracle in London occurred when vast quantities of dissolved oxygen was pumped into the river. 45 , all the species of fish that had gradually disappeared from the Thames since 1800 have returned.31.

Reading Comprehension（40分）（1）One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is “How do you feel?”Usually the question is asked of a man in action ----- a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. Sowhat do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, “Fine, I’m all right.” But you have put a bug in his face, or in his walk, that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, “How do you feel?”Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask “How do you feel?”if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question.When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighti es, someone asked him, “How do you feel?” Shaw put him is his place. “When you reach my age,” he said, “either you feel all right or you are dead.”1.According to the writer, greetings, such as “How do you feel?”____________.A.show one’s consideration for othersB.are a good way to make friendsC.are proper to ask a man in actionD.generally make one feel uneasy2. The question “How do you feel?” seems to be correct and suitable when asked of _________A. a friend who is illB. a person who has lost a close friendC. a stranger who looks somewhat worriedD. a man who is working at his desk3. George Bernard Shaw’s reply in this passage shows his ________.A. sillinessB. clevernessC. carelessnessD. politeness4. “Y ou have put a bug in his ear ”means that you have _________.A. made him laughB. shown concern for himC. made fun of himD. given him some kind of warming5. This passage can be entitled _________A. Silly QuestionB. Don’t Trouble a Busy ManC. What Are Good GreetingsD. George Bernard Sh aw’s Reply(2)More than 30000 drivers and front seat passengers are killed or seriously injured each year. At a speed of only 30 miles per hour it is the same as falling from a third floor window. Wearing aseat belt saves lives; it reduces your chance of death or serious injury by more than half.Therefore drivers or front seat passengers over 14 in most vehicles must wear a seat belt. Ifyou do not, you could be fined up to￡50. It will not be up to the drivers to make sure you wearyour belt. But it will be the driver’s responsibility to make sure that children under 14 do not ridein the front unless they are wearing a seat belt of some kind.However, you do not have to wear a seat belt if you are reversing your vehicle; or you are making a local delivery or collecting using a special vehicle; or if you have a valid medicalcertificate which excuses you from wearing it. Make sure these circumstances apply to you beforeyou decide not to wear your seat belt. Remember you may be taken to court for not doing so, andyou may be fined if you cannot prove to the court that you have been excused from wearing it.6.This text is taken from_________.A. a medical magazineB. a legal documentC. a police reportD. a government information booklet7. Wearing a seat belt in a vehicle _________.A. reduces road accidents by more than halfB. saves lives while driving at a speed up to 30 miles per hour.C. reduces the death rate in traffic accidentsD. saves more than 15000 lives each year8.

Y ou are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of the year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876--1974) concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of a large number of people tend to e lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason ma y be that in spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature.Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be good time to take a long vacation from thinking.11. According to this passage, your intelligence probably ________.A. stays the same throughout the year.B. varies from day to dayC. changes with the seasonsD. changes from year to year12. Huntington based his conclusions on __________A. records of changes in his own intelligenceB. work with peoples in different climatesC. records of temperature changesD. all of the above13. It seems that the cold of winter _________.A. increases the ability to thinkB. is the best time for thinkingC. is better for thinking than very warm weatherD. decreases the ability to think14. One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that _______.A. all nature, including man, is growing thenB. it lasts longer than the other seasonsC. it is not too warm and not too coldD. both B and C.15. The two best seasons for thinking seem to be ________A. spring and fallB. winter and summerC. summer and springD. fall and winter(4)On June 17, 1744, the officials from Maryland and Virginia held a talk with the Indians of the Six Nations. The Indians were invited to send boys to William and Mary College. In a letter the next day they refused the offer as follows:We know that you have a high opinion of the kind of learning taught in your colleges, and that the costs of living of our young men, while with you, would be very expensive to you. We are convinced that you mean to do us good by your proposal; and we thank you heartily. But you must know that different nationshave different ways of looking at things, and you will therefore not be offended if our ideas of this kind of education happen not to be the same as yours. We have had some experience of it. Several of our young people were formerly brought up at the colleges of the northern provinces: they were taught all your science; but, when they came back to us, they were bad runners, ignorant of every means of living in the woods… they were totally good for nothing.We are, however, not the less obliged by your kind offer, though we refuse to accept it; and, to show our grateful sense of it, if the gentlemen of Virginia will send us a dozen of their sons, we will take care of their education, teach them in all we know, and make men of them.16.The passage is about _______.A.the talk between the Indians and the officialsB.the colleges of the northern provincesC.the educational values of the IndiansD.the problems of the American in the mid-eighteenth century17.The Indians’ chief purpose in writing the letter seems to be to ________.a)politely refuse a friendly offerb)express their opinions on equal treatmentc)show their pride D. describe Indian customs18.According to the letter, the Indians believed that ______.a)it would be better for their boys to receive some schoolingb)they were being insulted by the offerc)they knew more about science than the officialsd)they had a better way of educating young men19.Different from the officials’ view of education, theIndians thought ________a)young women should also be educatedb)they had different goals of educationc)they taught different branches of scienced)they should teach the sons of the officials first20.The tone of the letter as a whole is best described as _________.A. angryB. pleasantC. politeD. inquiringIV.
