新视野大学英语3试卷
《新视野大学英语》试卷PartⅡReading Comprehension (30 points)Directions:There are 3 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 the center.Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Many people, particularly recent college graduates, dream of owning their own businesses. Although such ventures are often exciting and profitable, the new entrepreneur should thoroughly investigate and plan the situation before plunging in. the first step should be to assemble a board of advisers, including a lawyer, an accountant, and an insurance representative. These individuals can provide valuable information and counsel. Securing the necessary licenses and permits is also a precondition and may require research to determine what is necessary.Most successful small-business owners have considerable experience in the field working for others before they become independent. They also begin with substantial financial backing and a good location. Renting space may be preferable or necessary at thestart, but the lease on the building must be examined carefully before it is signed. The new owner should be thoroughly familiar with the market and the competition. A person who wants to buy an existing business can often learn the history of the company and its prospects from the owner’s records. Once the business gets started, accurate and complete records should be kept to monitor the company’s progress and profits.Financing may be the most difficult step for small-business owners. They may rely on their own savings or borrow money from a bank or the Small Business Administration. Some suppliers will sell merchandise on credit, and manufacturers may be willing to finance the purchase of equipment. If the new business is a corporation, the owner may choose to sell stock.Once the new business is started, the Small Business Administration is a good source of advice. Several of its programs are designed to help new owners with the advice and expertise of retired executives. A nearby university or trade association may also help owners locate local sources of help.New business owners often report that they work long, hard hours but find the experience extremely satisfying. The realization that their efforts will produce actual results in the form of profit, success, and pride can be quite motivating. Those who have workedfor others enjoy the opportunity to make decisions and follow projects through to completion. Many report that hard work has never been so enjoyable before. Careful research, investigation, and planning at the outset do not guarantee success, but they provide a good foundation for the new small business and its owner.21.T he main idea of the passage is about _________.A)the history of the small businessB)tips on how to start your own businessC)how a small business worksD)the best way to build up a profitable business22.W hich of the following advisers is most necessary before youbegin?A)A retired executive.B)A bank officer.C)A professor of economics.D)A lawyer.23.T he article indicates that most successful small-business ownersare _______.A)recent college graduatesB)new entrepreneursC)financially secureD)experienced in the field24.O ne advantage of buying an existing business over starting a newone is that ______.A)it has records readily availableB)it minimizes the competitionC)it is cheaperD)it already has many customers25.N ew business owners may avoid potential problems by ______.A)hard workB)selling stockC)careful planningD)buying on creditQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Britain almost more than any other country in the world must seriously face the problem of building upwards, that is to say, of accommodating a considerable proportion of its population in high blocks of flats. It is said that the English man objects to this type of existence, but if the case is such, he does in fact differ from the inhabitants of most countries of the world today. In the past our own blocks of flats have been associated with the lower-income groups and they have lacked the obvious provisions, such as central heating, constant hot water supply, electrically operated lifts from top tobottom, and so on, as well as such details, important notwithstanding (然而), as easy facilities for disposal of dust and rubbish and storage places for baby carriages in the ground floor, playgrounds for children on the top of the buildings, and drying grounds for washing. It is likely that the dispute regarding flats versus (对，对抗) individual houses will continue to rage on for a long time as far as Britain is concerned. And it is unfortunate that there should be hot feelings on both sides whenever this subject is raised. Those who oppose the building of flats base their case primarily on the assumption (设想) that everyone prefers an individual home and on the high cost per unit of accommodation. The latter ignores the higher cost of providing full services to a scattered community and the cost in both money and time of the journeys to work for the suburban resident.26.We can infer from the passage that _____.A)E nglish people, like most people in other countries, dislikeliving in flatsB)people in most countries of the world today are not opposed toliving in flatsC)people in Britain are forced to move into high blocks of flatsD)m odern flats still fail to provide the necessary facilities forliving27.What is said about blocks of flats built in the past in Britain?A)T hey were mostly inhabited by people who did not earn much.B)They were usually not large enough to accommodate bigfamilies.C)They were sold to people before necessary facilities wereinstalled.D)T hey provided playgrounds for children on the top of thebuildings.28.The word "rage" (Line 9) means _____.A)b e ignoredB)develop with great forceC)encourage people greatlyD)b e in fashion29.Some people oppose the building of flats because _____.A)t he living expenses for each individual family are higherB)it involves higher cost compared with the building of housesC)they believe people like to live in houses with gardensD)t he disposal of rubbish remains a problem for those living inflats30.The author mentions that people who live in suburban houses_____.A)d o not have access to easy facilities because they live awayfrom the cityB)have to pay a lot of money to employ people to do serviceworkC)take longer time to know each other because they are ascattered communityD)h ave to spend more money and time traveling to work everydayQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage Most people would agree that, although our age exceeds all previous ages in knowledge, there has been no corresponding increase in wisdom. But Agreement ceases as soon as we attempt to define "wisdom" and consider means of promoting it.There are several factors that contribute to wisdom. Of these I should put first a sense of proportion: the capacity to take account of all the important factors in a problem and to attach to each its due weight. This has become more difficult than it used to be owing to the extent and complexity of the special knowledge required of various kinds of technicians. Suppose, for example, that you are engaged in research in scientific medicine. The work is difficult and is likely to absorb the whole of your mind. You have no time to consider the effect which your discoveries or inventions may haveoutside the field of medicine. You succeed (let us say) as modern medicine has succeeded, in enormously lowering the infant death-rate, not only in Europe and America, but also in Asia and Africa. This has the entirely unintended result of making the food supply inadequate and lowing the standard of life in the parts of the world that have the greatest populations. To take an even more dramatic example, which is in everybody's mind at the present time; you study the makeup of the atom from a disinterested (无利害关系的) desire for knowledge, and by chance place in the hands of a powerful mad man the means of destroying the human race.Therefore, with every increase of knowledge and skill, wisdom becomes more necessary, for every such increase augments (增强)our capacity for realizing our purposes, and therefore augments our capacity for evil, if our purpose are unwise.31.Disagreement arises when people try to decide _____.A)h ow much more wisdom we have now than beforeB)what wisdom is and how to develop itC)if there is a great increase of wisdom in our ageD)w hether wisdom can be developed or not32.According to the author, "wisdom" is the ability to _____.A)c arefully consider the bad effects of any kind of research workB)give each important problem some careful considerationC)acquire a great deal of complex and special knowledgeD)g ive suitable consideration to all the possible elements in aproblem33.Lowering the infant death-rate may _____.A)p rove to be helpful everywhere in the worldB)give rise to an increase in population in EuropeC)cause food shortages in Asia and AfricaD)r aise the living standard of the people in Africa34.The author uses the examples in the passage to illustrate his pointthat _____.A)i t's extremely difficult to consider all the important elements inproblemB)success in medical research has its negative effectsC)scientists may unknowingly cause destruction to the humanraceD)i t's unwise to be totally absorbed in research in scientificmedicine35. What is the main idea of the passage? _____A)I t is unwise to place the results of scientific research in thehands of a powerful mad man.B)The more knowledge one has, the wiser one becomes.C)Any increase of knowledge could lead to disastrous resultswithout the guidance of wisdom.D)W isdom increases in proportion to one's age.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (30 points)Section A (10 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part. For each sentence there are four choices marked A), B) C) and D). Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.

Shortly after he achieved freedom he became a member of an organization that assisted fugitive slaves. He secretlyreturned to the United States from Canada several times to help others to travel the Underground Railroad to freedom. Once some slave catchers closed in on the escaping slaves and Henson when they were on the run. He disguised them and successfully avoided capture. In addition, later he built a small settlement in Dresden in Canada for escaped slaves, setting up a chapel and a school where they could learn useful ways of making a living. He held to the conviction that slavery would be abolished, all the slaves would be liberated, and the day was bound to come when racial discriminationno longer existed.。

Butthe remarkable Isaac Asimov had produced such an output during his 41-year book career and showed no signsof slowing down even at his old age.Many of Asimov’s science and science fiction works deal with space travel --- such as his well-knownFoundation Trilogy (三部曲) --- yet despite this, Asimov would be perfectly happy never leaving his Manhattanapartment, where he lived with his wife, psychiatrist(精神病医生) --- author Janet Jeppson. “I travel in mywriting to the far ends of space,” he would say, “so I don’t have to travel in real life.” Even if invited,he wouldn’t want to go.But he happily supported the space movement, serving on the NSS Board of Governors (理事会).Asimov, a workaholic who said he wanted to end his days “face down on my typewriter,” spent eight hoursa day, seven days a week typing.The Russian-born son of American immigrants, Asimov (1920―1992) began writing science fiction at age 11.His first story appeared in print when he was 18. As he continued writing, he completed college, earning a . in chemistry.Known mainly as a science fiction writer, Asimov was also an essayist, editor, journalist, biographer (传记作家) and humorist. Over the years, he'd owned dozens of awards, including the title Grandmaster of Science Fiction.1. How could Isaac Asimov be such a prolific (多产的) writer during his lifetime? DA. He began writing science fiction at age 11.B. He published his first work at age 18.C. He seldom left his Manhattan apartment.D. He spent almost all the time writing.2. Which of the following words best describes Isaac Asimov’s personality? CA. Quiet.B. Funny.C. Work-centered.D. Strange.3. How do you understand Isaac Asimov’s home life?BA. He was a hermit (隐士).B. He was a family man.C. He hated social life.D. He didn’t care about his family.4. What was the major topic in most of his books? AA. Space exploration.B. Star wars.C. Computers.D. Mysteries of the sea world.5. What do the achievements made by Isaac Asimov teach us? CA. In order to be successful, you have to be a workaholic.B. Imagination plays an important role in creative writing.C. Passion and hard work lead to success.D. It is important to publish at a young age.Passage 2Is your job doing harm to your health? If you are like a lot of American workers today, you experience a significant amount of stress in work. Stress doesn't just make you unhappy at work. It can affect your health. Doctors say people under stress have higher blood pressure, even when they are away from work. And they are at a higher risk for death from any cause than those who are more relaxed.How do you know if your job could be a risk to your health? Some danger signs include difficulty getting to sleep or difficulty waking up in the morning, forgetfulness, aches and pains for no apparent reason, a desire to eat less or tendency to eat poorly, loss of interest in activities, etc. Everyone has bad days in which they feel many of these symptoms, but if you have noticed several of them, and you have experienced them for months, you may need to do something.If you notice these signs in yourself or your beloved one, check with your doctor to eliminate other possibilities. If the cause does appear to be stress, you should try to make time for yourself away from work. Try relaxing in a warm bubble bath, listening to music, and shutting out the world for a while.1. According to the passage, ____________. AA. many American workers are under stress latelyB. almost all people know how to get rid of stressC. most people go to doctors for help with stressD. it is sure that our work is doing harm to our health2. How does stress at work affect your life? AA. It makes you unhappy at work.B. It always affects your health.C. It makes you worry all the time.D. It keeps you from working well.3. Which of the following is mentioned as a sign that your job is unhealthy? CA. Sudden aches and pains.B. Frequent bad days.C. Trouble remembering.D. Loss of time to relax.4. When should you do something about your problems? BA. When you’ve been told by o thers that you should do something.B. When you’ve noticed several bad symptoms over a long time.C. When you’ve let stress affect your friendships or life at work.D. When you’ve visited a doctor and he has told you to leave work.5. What ca n you do if you’ve noticed some of the signs of stress? AA. See a doctor and try to relax more.B. Change to another less stressful job.C. Assume much fewer responsibilities.D. Take up a hobby like playing music.Passage 3In the United States, it is not normal 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 pm. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life and death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important role. In the US 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 this 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 is different in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently. To be on time is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not on time, they may be regarded as not polite or not fully responsible. In the US no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour; it would be bad-mannered. A person who is five minutes late is expected to apologize. If he is less than five minutes late, he will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.1. If you telephone someone early in the day, it means _______ D ____.A. you are expected to explain whyB. you are not kind enoughC. you want to show your concern for himD. you have a very important matter to discuss2. The expression “a matter of life and death” means ________A____.A. an issue of the greatest importance and emergencyB. a very important appointmentC. a matter of whether someone should live or dieD. a strong desire to communicate3. In the US guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded ________ A____.A. if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended early enoughB. if the invitation to a dinner party is extended too far in advanceC. if the invitation to a dinner party is not extended repeatedlyD. if the invitation to a dinner party is extended to too many people4. The word “misunderstanding” can be explained as _____B_.A. failing to attend a partyB. failing to understand correctlyC. standing in one’s wayD. standing on one's own feet5. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A_A. In the US it’s normal to keep someone waiting for some time.B. I n the US it’s not polite to keep someone waiting for an hour.C. In the US one is always expected to be on time.D. In the US one is expected to apologize if he is five minutes latePassage 4Ours is a big world, and full of many different people. People with many varying (不同的) points of view are often running up against others who have different opinions. Those of us who smoke are just one group of many. Recently, the activism (采取行动) of non-smokers has reminded us of the need to be considerate (体谅的) of others when we smoke in public.But, please! Enough is enough! We should like to remind non-smokers that being polite is a two-way street. If you politely request that someone not smoke you are more likely to receive an agreeable response than if you give an ugly look and say something unkind. If you speak directly to someone, you are more likely to get what you want than if you complain to the management.Many of us have been smoking for so long that we sometimes forget that others are not used to the smell of burning tobacco. We’re human, and like everyone else, we occasionally offend unknowingly. But most of us are open to friendly suggestions and comments, and quite willing to change our behavior to accommodate others.Smokers are people, too. We laugh and cry. We have hopes, dreams, and aspirations. We have children, mothers, and pets. We eat our hamburgers (汉堡包) with everything on them and give respect to the flag at Fourth of July picnics. We hope you'll remember that the next time a smoker light up in public.1. The purpose of the first paragraph is ______. DA. to inform the reader of the bigness of the worldB. to declare that the author belongs to the group of smokersC. to tell non-smokers that smokers will be considerateD. to reveal the author’s reason for writing this essay2. What does the second sentence in the second paragraph imply? CA. We should go on two different roads.B. We have different ways of doing things.C. Being polite to each other is a mutual thing.D. We can smoke and sometimes we will not smoke.3. According to the author, how can you get an agreeable response from smokers if you don’t feel like someone smoking beside you? DA. Complain to his boss.B. Tell him directly that you hate smokers.C. Keep from complaining but do something to suggest your feelings.D. Tell him politely that you are not used to smoke.4. According to the author, why do some smokers smoke in public? BA. Because they cannot stop from smoking.B. Because they forget that others do not like the smell cigarettes.C. Because they are humans and they cannot avoid offending people.D. Because there is no law against it.5. How does the author try to persuade the reader? BA. He uses reasons.B. He appeals to people’s feelings.C. He gives examples in his argument.D. He simply states his opinion.Part III Cloze（本大题共20小题，每小题1分，共20分）Directions: In this section there is a passage with 20 blanks.

This, I think, is a good practice.For one thing, it lightens the burden on public transportation, which is already too crowded. For another, it saves time. As public transportation is overburdened, it often takes a lot of waiting to get on a bus and to transfer from one bus line to another. In addition, cycling has no need for fuel and therefore does not in the least pollute the air. It benefits not only the rider himself but also the residents of the whole community. What’s more, cycling is good for people’s health. Nowadays, with the automation of factories and offices, work, to many people, means button-pressing. What better exercise could such workers have than cycling to and from work?In a word, cycling to work is good for the rider and for our environment.。

You might picture a black-and-white movie with a performer dressed in a tuxedo (礼服). Tap dancing might not seem like something popular and modern. If that is how you picture tap, then you have never seen Savion Glover dance! This choreographer (编舞者), dancer, director, and producer has changed the way people think about tap dancing today.Savion Glover was born in New Jersey in 1973. He showed a talent for drumming when he was only four years old, so he began going to school at the Newark Community School of the Arts. By the time he was seven, he had begun taking rhythm tap classes at the Broadway Dance Center in New York. Rhythm tap is a special kind of dance that uses all the parts of the feet to create sounds.When Savion began taking tap lessons, his family could not afford the special shoes he needed. Savion had to wear a pair of cowboy boots to his first lesson! Just a few years later, Savion landed his first role in a Broadway performance, The TapDance Kid.Savion continued working in a variety of areas. He learned much of what he knew about tap dancing from masters like Sammy Davis, Junior and Gregory Hines. He participated in other Broadway productions, and he even made a movie. Savion also became well-known for his recurring role on the children's television show Sesame Street.The style of tap that Savion is best known for is often called hoofing, or street tap. It is a hard-hitting form of tap, and the movements are more acrobatic than those of traditional tap. Savion's work combines elements of jazz, hip-hop, rock-'n-roll, and the blues to create something unique and exciting. People love to watch Savion'sfeet move. It is hard to keep up with them, but that is part of the fun in watching Savion Glover perform.31. What is Savion Glover's major contribution to tap dancing?A) To preserve its well-established form.B) To transform the way of looking at tap dancing.C) To combine music with tap dancing perfectly.D) To introduce rhythm tap to Broadway.32. Why did Savion wear a pair of cowboy boots to his first tap lesson?A) Because he wanted to look different from others.B) Because the role required that he should wear cowboy boots.C) Because it was unnecessary for a beginner to wear dancing shoes.D) Because his family didn't have enough money for dancing shoes.33. Which of the following can best describe Savion according to the passage?A) Childlike. B) Creative. C) Courageous. D) Energetic.34. Hoofing is characterized by ______________ .A) its quick feet movement B) its unique body movementC) its light rhythm D) its being easy to learn35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A) How Tap Dancing Evolves. B) Music and Tap Dancing.C) The Best Hoofer of All. D) Savion and His Broadway Productions.Passage 2Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Imagine you go to the beach and find a sign: "Water Polluted—No Swimming Allowed." That's what happened to actor Ted Danson in 1984. The experience changed his life. Worried that his daughters (then aged 5 and 10) couldn't plunge into the ocean the way he had as a teen, Danson founded the American Oceans Campaign, an organization aimed at protecting Earth's oceans and coastal waters."Our oceans feed the world, cool our planet, regulate climate, and create nearly one-half of the global oxygen supply," Danson says. He's not joking. Fish are the main source of dietary protein for nearly 1 billion people—most of them in developing nations. Oceans absorb and radiate the Sun's heat to help keep Earth's temperature in balance. Microscopic plants (微⽣物) that live on the ocean's surface take in carbon dioxide to make food—and the precious oxygen we need to breathe."Yet each day, billions of gallons of sewage (污⽔), pesticides (杀⾍剂，农药), and industrial chemicals flow into the sea," Danson says. According to a United Nations report on the marine environment, about 80 percent of all marine pollution comes from human activities (like farming and driving) on land. Even if you live hundreds of miles from the nearest seashore, Danson adds, each day, Earth's atmosphere recycles billions of kiloliters of salty seawater and turns it into fresh water. Ocean water evaporates (蒸发) and rises into the atmosphere. There it condenses and falls to Earth as rain or snow. Thisfresh water collects in rivers, streams, and lakes or goes deep into the earth. These are the main sources of our drinking water.Human activities—like mining, forest clearing, farming, and manufacturing—pollute these freshwater sources, too. But it's not too late to turn the tide, Danson says. You can help by conserving water and working to keep it clean.36. What made Danson decide to establish the American Oceans Campaign?A) His daughters' keen interest in swimming.B) His rich knowledge about the oceanic science.C) His experience in being forbidden to swim in the ocean.D) The role he played in a movie about the ocean.37. According to the passage, oxygen is produced _____________ .A) by absorbing and radiating the Sun's heatB) by microscopic plantsC) by creating dietary proteinD) by regulating the climate38. The word "condense" (Line 7, Para. 3) is closest in meaning to " _____________ ".A) absorb B) become liquid C) become heavy D) reduce39. Which of the following is responsible for the pollution of drinking water?A) The recycle of salty seawater. B) The growth of forest.C) The evaporation of ocean water. D) The use of industrial chemicals.40. What is Danson's attitude towards the protection of oceans and coastal waters?A) Hopeful. B) Doubtful. C) Confident. D) Negative.Passage 3Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Few places in the world are more mysterious than Easter Island, located in the Pacific Ocean 2,300 miles from the coast of Chile. Easter Island has 64 square miles of rugged coastline and steep hills. Scientists believe that island began as a volcano. Three extinct volcanoes remain on the island. The largest one rises 1,400 feet high.On Easter Sunday of 1722, Dutch Admiral Jacob Roggeveen and his crew landed on Easter Island aboard the Dutch ship Arena. The astonished crew found dozens of huge stone figures standing on long stone platforms. The statues, some measuring 40 feet tall, were similar in appearance. Their expressionless faces were without eyes. Huge red cylinders (圆柱体) were placed on their heads. Since that time, the island has been a source of mystery to scientists and explorers. Archaeologists (考古学家) believe that three different cultures lived on Easter Island. About 400 A.D., the island was inhabited by a group of people who specialized in making small stone statues.Years later, another civilization tore down these statues and used them to build long temple platforms called ahus. These people carved more than 600 enormous stone busts (半⾝像) of human forms and placed them on the ahus. Some ahus still hold up to 15 statues.Scientists believe that the statues were carved from hard volcanic rock. The statues were made with stone picks made of basalt (⽞武岩). Although the statues weigh many tons each, it is believed that they were moved with ropes and rollers across the island and placed on the ahus. This may be the reason for one island legend about the statues "walking" to their site. About 1670, another group of people invaded the island. These invaders practiced cannibalism (同类相⾷). During this time, many people began living in underground caves where they hid their treasures.Today, Easter Island is governed by Chile, a country of South America. Almost the entire population of 2,000 people lives inthe small village of Hanga Roa on the west coast of the island.41. The author believes that Easter Island _____________ .A) is not a real place B) is not worth scientific studyC) is the result of cannibalism D) is fascinating to study42. How did Dutch Admiral Jacob Roggeveen and his crew feel at the sight of huge stone figures?A) Amazed. B) Excited. C) Indifferent. D) Frightened.43. When did Easter Island begin to attract explorers?A) About 400 A.D. B) About 1670. C) About 600 A.D. D) About 1722.44. According to the author, which of the following is true about ahus?A) People who lived in underground caves built the ahus.B) The ahus was carved with stone picks.C) There is no such thing as ahus.D) The ahus was a place on which statues were placed.45. The author's purpose in writing the passage is most likely to ____________ .A) persuade readers to visit Easter IslandB) inform readers about a trip to Easter IslandC) explain why Easter Island is a source of mysteryD) report the latest scientific findings about Easter IslandSection BDirections:In this section, there is a passage with 10 blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage throughcarefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please markthe corresponding letter far-each item on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.On the campus, particularly where classes are small, I found a strange informality (不拘礼节，随意) that characterized the relationship between students and their professors. While many students do call their professors "Professor" so-and-so or "Dr." so-and-so, some professors (46) __________ to be called familiarly by their first names. And in the (47) ___________ of informality, many professors may invite students to their homes or can be seen chatting with students over a meal or a cup of coffee in the school cafeteria. A good number of instructors even request that students fill out class evaluation forms which (48) _____________ the content and presentation of the course.Some teachers are more dogmatic (武断的) than others, but it is worth nothing that it is often the (49) __________ that teachers encourage students to question, debate and even (50) _____________ their statements. The encouragement of this kind of dialogue with professors in America is perhaps a reflection of the (51) __________ Americans put on thinking for oneself and developing individual perspectives. Some instructors even base a(n) (52) __________ of the grade on oral class participation of students.In class, if you can't (53) ____________ the teacher, it is a perfectly acceptable to raise your hand, or you can make a(n) (54) ___________ with your teacher after class. Teachers have office hours apart from teaching and normally will be quite (55)___________ to you.

One way is to teach students how to learn more effectively and efficiently. Learning strategies are "Procedures or techniquesthat learners can use to facilitate a learning task." Instructing students of English in learning strategies can help them becomebetter learners. In addition, skill in using learning strategies assists students in becoming independent, confident learners. Finally, students become more motivated as they begin to understand the relationship between their use of strategies and success in learning English. Students need to develop an awareness of the learningprocess and strategies that lead to success. Students who reflect on their own thinking are more likely to engage in planning how to proceed with a learning task, monitoring their own performance on an ongoing basis, finding solutions to problems encountered, andevaluating themselves upon task completion. These activities may be difficult for students accustomed to having a teacher who solves all their learning problems and is the sole judge of their progress. Teachers need to encourage students to rely more on themselves. Because learning strategies are mental processes with few observable manifestations, teachers need to find ways to make the strategies as concrete as possible. When students are able to use the strategies their teachers have taught them, and to do so without prompting, then they need to explore new strategies, new applications, and new opportunities for self-regulated learning.(1). Better learning strategies can make language learning more( ).A. funB.interestingC.efficientD.exciting(2). Students who reflect on their own ( )will be more successful in learning.A. thinkingB.evaluationC.performanceD. activities(3). Teachers should encourage students to rely more on ( )A. booksB.notesC.tutorsD.themselves(4). Learning strategies are unobservable mental processes, so teachers should make them ( )A.simplerB.more familiarC.more concreteD. more applicable(5). Which of the following statements is true? ( )A. Students learn learning strategies from the teachers only.B.Learning strategies are completely unobservable.C.Students need to explore new learning strategies for themselves.D.Teache rs are the sole judges of students’ progress.2. Most animals have little connection with animals of different kind, unless they hunt them for food. Sometimes, however, two kinds of animals come together in a partnership ( 伙伴关系 ) which does goodto both of them. You may have noticed some birds sitting on the backs of sheep. This is not because they want a ride, but because they find easy food in the parasites （寄生虫 ) on sheep. The sheep allow the birds to do so because they remove the cause of discomfort. So although they can manage without each other, they do better together. Sometimes an animal has a plant partner. The relationship develops until the two partners cannot manage without each other. This is so in the corals (珊瑚) of the sea. In their skins they havetiny plants act as "dustman", taking some of the waste products form the corals and giving inreturn oxygen which the animal needs to breathe. If the plants are killed, or are ever prevented from lighting so that they cannot live normally, the corals will die.(1). Some birds like to sit ona sheep because ( ).A. they can eat its parasitesB. they depend on the sheep for existenceC. they enjoy traveling with the sheepD. they find the position most comfortable(2). The underlined word "they" in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers to ( ).A. birds and parasitesB. birds and sheepC. parasites and sheepD. sheep, birds and parasites(3). What does the second paragraph mainly discuss? ( )A. Some animals and plants depend on each other for existence.B. Some animals and plants develop their relationship easily.C. Some plants depend on each other for fooD. Some animals live better together.(4). What does this article talk about? ( )A. Two kinds of animals for a partnership.B. Most animals only have connection with animals.C. The connection between the living things.D. Corals have some connection with plants.3. Exercise is one of the few factors with a positive role in long-term maintenance of body weight. Unfortunately, that message has not gotten through to the average American, who would rather try switching to “light” beer and low-calorie bread than increase physical exertion. Doctors found that less than one-fourth of overweight adults who were trying to reduce weight said they were combining exercise with their diet.Still, exercise’s supporting role in weight reduction is necessary.A study confirmed that those who dieted without exercise regained almost all their old weight, while those who worked exercise into their daily routine maintained their new weight.If you have been sedentary and decide to start walking one mile a day, the added exercise could burn an extra 100 calories daily. In a year’ time, assuming no increase in food intake, you could lost ten pounds. By increasing the distance of your walks gradually and making other dietary adjustments, you may lose even more weight.(1). According to the passage, what is the advantage of exercise mentioned by the author? ( )A. It can help you keep good health.B.It can help you maintain body weight.C.

Bill Gates, the head of the world’s biggest computer softwarecompany, the Microsoft Corporation, has a mission: “to put a computer on every office desk and in every home”. Bill Gates has had this mission since he was a university student years ago. This deep personal interest, together with his technical skills and his business marketing skills helped him to create a giant computer company and to make him wealthy.Although he is so wealthy, Bill Gates does not want to give up. He is still very interested in his vision and he travels the globe, making quick stops in cities to sell the new software products of his company.The central vision of Bill Gates is the “information highway”. This is a network for computers that will link every home, office and shop in the future. This computer network system will have an effect on business, shopping and education. Bill Gates says that the main use of this new technology will be in communication. It will be a way to find people with common interests and to share opinions with them. But is this communication by computer along the “information highway” really a good thing? Won’t we be sitting at home, only “socializing” with our computer, paying big compani es money so that we can receive information that some large communication corporation somewhere had decided is “acceptable” for us to read? No, says Bill Gates, he thinks that the phrase “information highway” is aterrible phrase. It makes people think that we are all going down the same road, he says. In fact, the computer network will let us choose our own intellectual direction. It will give us freedom. It will also bring good to society, because it will allow for the spread of education. When more and more people receive education, the gap between the rich and the poor will narrow.In the meantime, however, the gap between the rich and the poor is still there. To be added to this now is the gap between those with computers and those without.(1).
