Worry can keep you awake, tossing and 26 in bed until the early hours of the morning when you eventually 27 asleep. When you wake up, you don' t feel 28 , but tired and worn out and 29 to face a new day.Dr. Henry Winkle, in a recent newspaper article 30 Stress and Sleep, 31 that stress and lack of sleep are directly 32 . Dr. Winkle says, "the more we worry, the 33 we sleep, the more we are unable to deal with 34 If we can find a way to get a good night' s sleep," he 35 ,"we can often find the 36 to deal with what' s worrying us. "So, what is a good night' s sleep? Research shows that the amount of sleep which people need in order to keep healthy 37 a lot. Seven hours is about the average amount, 38 strangely enough, sleeping longer often gives you a headache 39 of making you feel more refreshed.Dr. Winkle believes that preparing for sleeping is important. People who work late should try to give themselvesa short 40 and do something restful before going to bed. This could be watching TV or listening to music. Doing some exercise 41 in the day should help you to feel physically as well as 42 tired. A bedtime drink can also help, but coffee or tea should be avoided as they contain caffeine(咖啡因) and will keep you. 43 .

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1An embarrassing experienceIt was the small hours of the morning when we reached London Airport. I had cabled London from Amsterdam, and there was a hired car to meet, but there was one more unfortunatehappening before I reached my flat. In all my travels I have never, but for that once, been required by the British customs to open a single bag or to do more than state that I carried no goods liable to duty. It was, of course, my fault; the extreme tiredness and nervous tension of the journey had destroyed my diplomacy. I was, for whichever reason, so tired that I could hardly stand, and to the question ,"have you read this?" I replied with extreme foolishness, "Yes, hundreds of times. ""And you have nothing to declare?""Nothing. ""How long have you been out of this country?""About three months. ""And during that time you have acquired nothing?""Nothing but what is on the list I have given you. "He seemed momentarily at a loss, but then he attacked. The attack, when it came, was utterly unexpected."Where did you get that watch?"I could have kicked myself. Two days before, when playing water games with a friend in the bath, I had forgotten to take off my ROLEX OYSTER, and it had, not unnaturally, stopped. I had gone into the market and bought, for twelve shillings and six pence, an ugly time piece that made a strange noise. It had stopped twice, without any reason, during the journey.I explained, but I had already lost face. I produced my own watch from a pocket, and added that I should be grateful if he would confiscate the replacement."It is not a question of confiscation," he said, "thereis a fine for failing to declare dutiable goods. And now may I please examine that Rolex?"It took another quarter of an hour to persuade him that the Rolex was not contraband; then he began to search my luggage.46. When did the writer arrive at London airport?[A] In the early morning. [B] Late at night. [C] At noon. [D] Late in the morning.47. What can we conclude from the questions asked by the customs officer?[A] He was just doing his duty by asking the passenger some usual questions.[B] He must have noticed the writer's ugly watch.[C] He wanted to embarrass the writer.[D] He must have noticed the writer's tiredness.48. What did the writer think of the watch he bought in the market?[A] He was fond of the watch because it was a Rolex.[B] He found the watch useful though it was very cheap.[C] He didn't like the watch at all.[D] He was indifferent to the watch.49. What must have happened to the writer in the end?[A] He must have spent a long time at the customs and must have been let go without any punishment.[B] He must have been given a fine as a punishment.[C] His Rolex must have been confiscated.[D] His cheap watch must have been confiscated.50. What do you think is the tone of the story?[A] Humorous. [B] Sarcastic. [C] Solemn. [D] Matter-of-fact.Text 2You must have been troubled by when to say "I love you" because it is one of the greatest puzzles in our life.What if you say it first and your partner doesn' t love you back? Or if they do say it but you don't feel they mean it? Being the first to declare your love can be nerve-racking(紧张) and risky and can leave you feeling as vulnerable as a turtle with no shell. But is the person who says it first really in a position of weakness? Doesn' t it pay to hold back, play it cool and wait until the other half has shown their hand first?"A really good relationship should be about being fair and being equal," says psychologist Sidney Crown. "But love is seldom equal. " All relationships go through power struggles but, he says ,if a love imbalance continues for years, the rot will set in. "That feeling of ' I' ve always loved you more' may be subverted(*，破坏) for a time, but it never goes away completely and it often emerges insquabbling(大声争吵). In love, at least, the silent, withholding type is not always the most powerful. "The strongest one in a relationship is often the person who feels confident enough to talk about their feelings," says educational psychologist lngrid Collins. Psychosexualtherapist Paula Hall agrees. "The one with the upper hand is often the person who takes the initiative. In fact, theperson who says ' I love you' first may also be the one who says ' I' m bored with you' first. " Hall believes that much depends on how "I love you" is said and the motivation of the person saying it."Is it said when they' re drunk? Is it said before their partner flies off on holiday, and what it really means is ' Please don' t be unfaithful to me' ? By saying I love you' ,they really say' Do you love me?' If so, wouldn' t it just be more honest to say that?" Collins agrees that intention is everything."It' s not what is said, but how it's said. What it comes down to is the sincerity of the speaker. "\51. What is the main idea of this passage?[A]The importance of "I love you" [B]The meaning of "I love you"[C]The time of saying "I love you" [D]The place of saying "I love you"52. In the first sentence the author means that__________.[A]it is easy to say "I love you" [B]it is hard to say "I love you"[C]we have many troubles in our life [D]people usually do not know when to say "I love you"53. According to the expert, a good relationship shouldbe__________.[A]fair and equal [B]fair and kind[C]powerful and equal [D]confident and fair54. In the third paragraph, the phrase "with the upper hand" means__________.[A]being low in spirit [B]having only one hand[C]being active [D]being passive55. What is the most important for you to consider when somebody says "I love you" to you?[A]The intention. [B]The place. [C]The time.[D]The determination.Text 3At the European Commission in Brussels, they have a joke about the work interpreters do-"Languages", they say, "have nothing to do with interpretation, it helps to know them. "Anyone thinking of becoming an interpreter would bear thisso well in mind. Translating languages, especially in apolitical context, involves far more than mere linguistic ability.To work in an international organization, such as the United Nations, you need to be approved by one of the various international translators or interpreters' associations. To achieve this, you must experience rigorous and lengthy training, either at an accrediting organization' s own school, or on a post graduate course at university. But aqualification in languages is not the only route into thejob .At London' s University of Westminster, candidates get offered a place on the interpreter' s course if they can show that they have "lived a bit", in the words of one lecture. Young people who have just left university often lack adequate experience of life.The University also looks for candidates who have lived for long time in the countries where their acquired languages are spoken. They are also expected to have wide cultural interests and a good knowledge of current affairs. This broad range of interests are essential in a job which can require interpreting discussions of disarmament (裁军) on Monday, international fishing rights on Tuesday ,multinational finance on Wednesday, and the building and construction industry on Thursday.Interpreters also rely on adrenaline(肾上腺素)--which is caused by the stress and challenges of the job--to keep them going through their demanding schedules. Many admit that they enjoy the buzz of adrenaline they get from the job, and it' s known that their heart rates speed up while they are working.It' s also a job with its own risks and excitement. Interpreters are needed in war zones as well as in centers of international diplomacy, like the U. N.56. According to the passage, what does the underlined phrase "lived a bit "mean?[A]To be older than others. [B]To travel to more countries.[C]To have abundant life experience. [D]To have longer training in interpreting.57. Candidates for the training course in London' s University of Westminster need the following qualifications EXCEPT[A]having wide cultural interests [B]having a good knowledge of current affairs[C]being familiar with the languages they translate[D]being eloquent lecturers58. The interpreters rely on adrenaline because[A]it can help finish their work quickly [B]it can make them excited[C]it can prevent them from heart disease [D]it can make them work harder59. According to the passage, we can infer that[A]language has nothing to do with interpreting[B]only those postgraduates from the foreign language universities can work as interpreters[C]interpreters must live in the country where the required language is spoken[D]interpreters build the bridge for international communication60. The job as an interpreter has the following characteristics EXCEPT[A]funny [B]intrepid [C]dangerous sometimes[D]excitingPart BDirections：The 12,000 members of the Electricity Workers' Union went on strike last week and since then there has been no electricity. For questions 61 - 65, match the names with the statements below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Mr. Mike Smith：It wasn' t an easy decision, but we' ve been asking for a decent wage for years. Now at last people are beginning to listen to us. We' re only asking for a 25 percent increase in our wages. 250dollars a week, that' s all. It' s a pity so many people have to be inconvenienced by our strike. But please don't blame us. Blame the government for refusing our claim.Mr. Tom Brown：It' s totally unreasonable to demand so much money when we are trying desperately to control inflation. If wages go up, so do prices. If we gave in to the electricity workers, all the other unions would want more, with the inevitable result that the crisis would become uncontrollable. Whatwe're trying to impress upon everybody is that inflation hurts everybody, especially the poor people. We offer the electricity workers a 10 percent increase. And that' s already too much. My stand at this meeting will be to persuade the Union to see reason.Mr. Bob Davis：Everybody will be hurt by this strike, including the electricity workers themselves. The economy will be destroyed and many people will lose their jobs. Already people aresaying that the big union shave too much power and shouldn' t be allowed to strike. Of course the electricity workers wantto get more money. Don't we all?Mrs. Baker：My opinion is "Get the Army in". All the power stations should be managed by the army. The strikers should be thrown into prison. That' s what this country needs. Why must we all suffer just because a few men are greedy? If they don' t like their jobs, nobody' s forcing them to work. They should try and live on 50 dollars a week like I have to. Perhaps they' d keep their mouths shut then .Miss Siater：Let' s face it. It' s neither here nor there. Theelectricity workers are in a strong position. Per-haps wecan' t do anything about it. What I say is： let them havetheir 250 dollars so we can return to work. I mean, the government wastes the taxpayers' money all the time ontrivial things. How can anyone say 250 dollars is "too much" ? Pop singers get more. Nurses get less. It' s just one ofthose things.Now match each of the persons (61 to 65)to theappropriate statement .Note： there are two extra statements.Statements61. Mr. Mike Smith62. Mr. Tom Brown63. Mr. Bob Davis64. Mrs. Baker65. Miss Slater[A] A 10% increase is already too much, and I' m here to persuade the Union to see reason.[B] I hope that strikes should be banned in all sectors relating to the nation's security and stability.[C] We will never go back to work until our goals are achieved.[D] I think that the government should give in to the electricity workers' demands.[E] I strongly suggest that all the power stations should be run by the army and that the strikers should be put into prison.[F] I must make you clear that strikes will destroy the economy and that many people will lose their jobs.[G] We are forced to call a strike because the government rejected our wage claim.第一部分听力(略)第二部分英语知识使用参考译文如果你正为某些事情担心或是在工作上、学业中承受着很大的压力，你极有可能睡得不好。

Why are menand women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by thedifference between mountaineering and other forms ofactivities 30 which men give their leisure.There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golfand football. There are, of course, rules of different kindswhich it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom fromman-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 .If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports,we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering isnot a “team work ” .

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which wasa temple to me then. It wasn ’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senioreditor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck withit. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered myboss’s office. Would he rage? I wonde red. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk, ” I began awkwardly.“I came to the Globe when I was twenty - four. Now I ’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I ’m resigning. ” “To another paper? ” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, butdidn ’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new mediacompany. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wantedto be directly engaged in the change. “I ’m glad for you, ”he said, quite ou t of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much ofit we can ’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world, ” he concluded. “And if it doesn ’t work out, remember, your star is always high here. ”Then I went out of his office, walking through thenewsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody—even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture ： all the financial security I hadcarefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman andpublisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into abillion- dollar property.“I’m resigning, Bill,”I said. He listened while I gave him the st ory. He wasn ’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said,“Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46.From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous_______.[A]newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47.If the writer stayed with the Globe _________.[ A] he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams.[ B] he would let his long-cherished dreams fade away.[ C ] he would never have to worry about his future life.[ D] he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions.48. The writer wanted to resign because _________.[A] he had serious trouble with his boss.[ B ] he got underpaid at his job for the Globe.[ C ] he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry.[ D ] he had found a better paid job in apublishing house.49.When the writer decided to resign the Globe wasfaced with _______.[ A ] a trouble with its staff members[ B ] a shortage of qualified reporters[ C ] an unfavorable business situation[ D ]an uncontrollable business situation50. By“：I wish I were in your shoes. ”(in the last paragraph) Bill Taylor meant that _______.[ A ] the writer was to fail.[ B] the writer was stupid[ C ] he would do the same if possible[D] he would reject the writer’s requestText 2Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up inthe morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr.Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved thateveryone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work youmay say that you ’re “hot ”. That ’s true. The time of daywhen you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comesduring the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads’ll be to such familiar monologues as ：“Get up, Peter! You latefor work again! ” The possible explanation to thetrouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peakin the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbandsand wives realize what these energy cycles mean, andwhich cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn tomake your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you ’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay uplate anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. Ifyour energy is low in the morning, but you have an importantto do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. Thiswon’t change your cycle, but you ’ll get up steam and workbetter at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51.If a person finds getting up early a problem,most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C]he is not sure when his energy is low.[D]he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52.Which of the following may lead to familyquarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D]Attempts to control the energy cycle of otherfamily members.53.If one wants to work efficiently at his low pointin the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54.You are advised to rise with a yawn andstretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B]help you to control your temper early in the day[C]enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D]keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A]Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B]Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C]Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D]Children have energy cycles, too.Text 3There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution,the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings inrural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the veryclimate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning offossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect ”—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world's average temperature. If this view iscorrect and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities suchas New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth's temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditionswill happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible) Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment causedby the“advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56.As pointed out at the beginning of the passage,people used to think that air pollution _______.[ A ] cause widespread damage in the countryside[ B ] affected the entire eastern half of the UnitedStates[ C ] had damaged effect on health[ D ] existed merely in urban and industries areas57.

For questions 61 to 65 , -match name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to C ) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.AbbeyYou can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calorie charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are!MarlinI began making some dietary and lifestyles changes during my second year of college and have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don't eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer; Ican maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly.MaggieDuring my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that Iwas in good shape since that's what I weighed in college. Now that I've lost all that extra weight, I feel great! Peoplesay all the time, "Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?" and I say, "You just don't.It' s not even an option. It's not that hard once you get onit. "BelindaIf you are on a diet, you're always hungry. You can't be hungry and happy at the same time. All the horrible concoctions you eat instead of food leave you permanently dissatisfied. A complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as juicy steak. So at least three times a day you will be exposed to temptation. How miserable to watch others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! And if hunger just proves too much for you, in the end you will lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting.Then things will turn out to be even worse.WoodI went on diet when my doctor told me that my blood pressure tended to be high. Only at that time did I realizethe danger of being overweight. Since I began making dietarychanges in 1982, eating this way has become increasingly accepted. I don't feel I've lost something after dieting. Instead, I've got something valuable. That is good health.Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.Note： there are two extra statements.Statements61.Abbey [A] Being on a diet is a torture.62.Marlin [ B] I feel better with vegetarian food.63.Maggie [C] I lost weight after dieting.[ D] I began dieting for the sake of health.64.Belinda [E] Dieting enables people to enjoy life more.65.Wood [F] Dieting simply causes endless worries.[ G] Dieting does more harm than good to one' s health.Section IV Writing (40 minutes)You should write your responses to both parts on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66.Suppose you have got the news that the university of Science and Technology of China is offering a scholarship for chemistry majors and that you have just received an MS degree in chemistry and are eager to have a personal interview with Dr. Wu Han wei , the Chairman.

2020年公共英语三级pets3写作模拟试题(一)
2020年公共英语三级pets3写作模拟试题（一）A survey conducted in Tianjin found that 98% of high school students and 92% of elementary school students have to spend most of their weekends doing homework.Write an essay of about 120 words. You may include the following points：1. Discuss the negative effects of too much homework on children.2. Discuss the disadvantages of the present exam-oriented education system.3. Call for efforts to ease students' burden and help them lead a colorful and enjoyable life.「参考范文」Too much homework has become a common complaint in high schools and elementary schools. Students have to spend most of their time doing homework, even on weekends. As a result, they have no time for their hobbies, or for their parents or friends. All they do is what they have to do, not what they like to do.The underlying cause for this phenomenon lies in the present exam-oriented education system. National College Entrance Examination has become the sole focus of teachers, parents, and students themselves. High score becomes the ultimate goal, to the neglect of practical abilities, personality development, and all that.It is urgent that we deepen our educational reform. We must allow for students' overall development, not just evaluate their test scores.。

Then about 3months later, we traveled to New York. As we were waiting for our plane in the airport, I looked out of a huge window. At that very moment, I saw the largest truck in the world.
