I. Reading comprehension Passage 1 Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger（汉堡包） stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald ’ s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the localMcDonald ’ s, called the Big Mac Index （巨无霸指数）.That ’ s not to say thatevery nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald ’ s in India doesn ’ t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans.Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism （沙文主义）, and European nations in particular haveviewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A2015-11-07北京地区成人学士学位英语考试试题French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he anda group of people destroyed a McDonald's underconstruction to protest globalization and "bad food."

He was born in 1888 in an Indian Territory (印第安人保护区) that is now Oklahoma. Like most Native Americanchildren then, he liked to fish, hunt, swim, and play games outdoors. (76)He was healthy and strong, but he had very little formal education. In 1950, Jim Thorpe was named the greatest American football player. He was also an Olympic gold medal winner. But Thorpe had many tragedies in his life.Jim had a twin brother who died when he was nine years old. By the timehe was 16, his mother and father were also dead. Jim then went to a special school in Pennsylvania for Native American children. There, he learned to read and write and also began to play sports. Jim was poor, so he left schoolfor two years to earn some money. During this time, he played on a baseball team. (77) The team paid him only $15 a week. Soon he returned to school to complete his education. Jim was a star athlete( 运动员) in several sports,including baseball, running and football. He won many awards for hisathletic ability, mainly for football. In many games, he scored all or most of the points for his team.In 1912, when Jim Thorpe was 24 years old, he became part of the U. SOlympic team. He competed in two very difficult events: the pentathlon and the decathlon. Both require great ability and strength. The pentathlon has five track and field events, including the long jump and the 1,500-meter race.The decathlon hasten track and field and filed events, with running, jumping, and throwing contests.People thought it was impossible for an athlete to compete in both the pentathlon and the decathlon. So everyone was surprised when Thorpe won gold medals in both events. Whent he King of Sweden presented Thorpe with his twoSir, you are the greatest athlete in the world.gold medals, he said,Thorpe was a simple and honest man. He just answered, “ Thanks, King. ”6.From the passage we learn that Jim Thorpe was born in .A. IndiaB. PennsylvaniaC.

Passage 3It can be really frustrating（使人沮丧的） for an overweight person to goto a gym and work out with a positive attitude. All one has to do is walk by almost any nice gym and notice all the healthy, sweating, “ skinny ” members. Sometimes they stare at those of us who are , well, zaftig.It is easy to see the judgment behind their eyes. Who wants to put up withthat?Many people are self-conscious of their bodies and feel isolated when joining workout classes or while exercising, especially if they are larger than most of the others in the group. Now the fitness industry is finally paying attention. Popular gyms are catering（迎合） to overweight and weight conscious customers by dedicating areas where the “ skinny ” people are not allowed.There are even gyms or programs that require members to be at least 50 pounds overweight to participate.Trainers recommendedf unctional fitness as a practical goal, rather than six-pack abs（六块腹肌）. （79）They often use text messages to stay in touch with customers.Often at these specialized gyms, the trainers are overweight themselves,or working on their own weight goals, and this can help those people with anxiety caused by poor body image. The equipment has been designed for use by larger people. Wider seats, more cushioning, no mirrors, and tinted( 有色的) windows for privacy, are all important changes.(80)Hopefully these types of gyms will successfully grow in numbers in the future. The idea is a very simple and potentially popular one. If it helps those of us who are bigger exercise more and improve our fitness level, it ’s a step in the right direction.11.The word zaftig in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to .A. fatB. healthyC. friendlyD. polite12.We can infer from the first two paragraphs that __ .A.most large gym chains really want members to show up frequentlyB.overweight people are often frustrated and pushed away by traditional gym industryC.regular gyms don ’ t accept overweight people to participate intheir programsD.overweight people have to pay extra to work out in a gym13.What is the training goal in the gyms catering to overweight members?A. To achieve functional fitness.B. To build six-pack abs.C. To look like a fitness model.D. To be able to run longdistances.14.As for the gyms catering to overweight members, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A.The machines are designed for larger people.B.Tinted windows are used to ensure extra privacy.C.There are larger mirrors on the walls.D.The training goals are more realistic.15.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.Improving Women ’ s Self -confidence through ExercisesB.The Traditional Gym Industry Is Losing Its CustomersC.The Fitness Industry Is Look for New DirectionsD.Specialization Gyms Designed for Overweight People16.When Bill came in, I with my friends.A. will talkB. talkC. was talkingD. have talked17.John made her __ him everything about her plan for the trip.A. to tellB. tellC. toldD. tells18.Lucy goes to school by bike every day, she?A. doesB. doesn'tC. isD. isn't19.I can help _whether we should go without raincoats.A. wonderB. to wonderC. wonderingD. wondered20.Never in her life ____ in such an important party, where she saw so many pop stars.A.

北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案_0

北京地区成人英语三级考试全真试题及答案Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through center.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Television has opened windows in everybody’s life. Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914, Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle. And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the screen.Television has also changed politics. The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election. Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, television’s influence has been extremely harmful to the young.(76)Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world; that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless. They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable. All educators agree that the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient. (77)Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures; to read a book that requires thinking; to listen to a teacher who doesn’t do funny thingslike the people on children’s programs. And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes. That’s the time it takes on the screen.1. In the past, many young people ______.A. knew the effects of warB. went in for politicsC. liked to save the wounded in warsD. were willing to be soldiers2. Now with TV people can _____.A. discus politics at an information centerB. show more interest in politicsC. make their own decisions on political affairsD. express their opinions freely3. The author thinks that TV advertisements _____.A. are not reliable on the wholeB. are useless to peopleC. are a good guide to adultsD. are very harmful to the young4. Which is NOT true according to the passage?A. People have become used to crimes now.B. With a TV set some problems can be solved quickly.C. People now like to read books with picture.D. The adults are less violent than the young.5. From the passage, we can conclude that _____.A. children should keep away from TV programs should be improvedC. children’s books should have picturesD. TV has a deep influence on the youngPassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Nonverbal (非语言的) communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking. (78) The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry.For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important. North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the North American to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to . The “eye contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication. Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who don’t like each other. (79)The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable. The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication. Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes. We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness. Someone who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.6. According to the passage, nonverbal communication _____.A. is a method often used by people who cannot speakB. can tell something that words cannotC. can be used to talk with people who cannot bearD. is less used than words7. The South American _____.A. tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is speaking toB. usually stands close to the person he is talking toC. is often unfriendly when spoken toD. is often cold and distant when speaking8. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.B. The longer one looks at you , the more interest he has in you.C. There is more eye contact between people who like each other.D. Shorter eye contact show more interest in what one is talking about.9. Too long a gaze _____.A. may upset people being looked atB. shows one’s great confidenceC. indicates one’s interest in the talkD. tells you how friendly one is10. Constant smiling without apparent reason _____.A. is a sign of one’s friendlinessB. is a sign of one’s unfriendlinessC. makes people fell happyD. makes people feel uncomfortablePassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, Mostly married. (80) The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago - so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than gibing them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. Ti probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children _____.A. sensible and sensitiveB. competitive and interestedC. curious and friendlyD. happy and co-operative12. Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think _____.A. children are reluctant to help each otherB. schools lay too much emphasis on co-operationC. children should grow up with competitive ideasD. schools give little actual instruction to children13. The author’s attitude towards American education can be best described as _____.A. favorableB. negativeC. tolerantD. unfriendly14. The American educational system emphasizes _____.A. material wealthB. competitionC. co-operationD. personal benefit15. The word “sociable” (Line 8, Paragraph2) most probably means _____.A. fond of talking freelyB. friendly with other peopleC. concerned about social welfareD. happy at schoolPart ⅡV ocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.

In fact, some elderly people are quite happy to 60 their age, especially if they feel they look young 61 their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a(n) 62 question like “How old are you?”. If elderly people want to talk about their age, and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily 63 the topic themselves, and ask the other person to 64 how old they are. 65 such a question, it is quite acceptable to discuss age 66 . They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though rather than 67 that they look very old!68 Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not 69 that they are not interested to know how old other people are.

北京地区成人英语三级考试2019年考前练习题1(总分100, 做题时间120分钟)Part Ⅰ Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each ofthem there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.There seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they developed is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.(76)In the ancient world, as in today, most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with another. In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. The changes have been mostly in terms of craftsmanship, mechanics and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all parts ofthe world and their persistence to the present that is amazing. In Egypt,the America, China, Japan and among the Arctic people, generally the same kinds oftoysappeared.Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys imitate their surroundings.(77)Nearly every civilization had dolls, little weapons, toy soldiers, tiny animals and vehicles.Because toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to technological leaps that characterize inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the ox cart to the automobile is a direct line ofascent (进步). The progress from a rattle (拨浪鼓) used by a baby in 3, 000 B. C. to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by inventiveness. Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations ofavailable materials.SSS_SINGLE_SELThe reason why the toys most boys play with are different from those that girls play with is that ________.Atheir social roles are rigidly determinedBmost boys would like to follow their fathers' professionsCboys like to play with their fathers while girls with their mothersDthey like challenging activities分值: 2答案:A选项 A 是本问题的根本原因，而选项 B 只是选项 A 的结果；选项 C， D 在文中未曾提及。

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2016.05.07Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage i s followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of t hem there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Ans wer SheetPassage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The California lawmakers voted Thursday to raise the legal age to buy tobacco products from 18 to 21. The measure is part of a lar ger package of laws aimed at reducing tobacco use. If Governor Jerry Brown signs the bill, California will became the second state, afte r Hawaii, to raise the age limit for buying cigarettes and other to bacco products. More than 100 cities in the U.S., including New York and Boston, have already raised the age limit.A week ago, the California Assembly approved the measure，which-in addition to raising the age limit-treats electronic cigarettes the same as tobacco products，expands smoke-free areas，increases smoking bans and allows counties to collect higher taxes on cigarettes than the 87-cent per pack state tax. The Assembly’s vote came a few days after the city of San Francisco increased th e age to by tobacco products to 21.California lawmakers passed the bill despite lobbying（游说）from tobacco interests. The measure also faced opposition from many Republicans, who said the state should not be involved in policing p eople’s personal choices. “I don’t smoke. I don’t encourage my ch ildren to,”said Republican Assemblyman Donald Wagner. “But they’re adults, and it’s our job to treat our citizens as adults,”But supporters of the bill say raising the age to 21 moves legall y purchased tobacco that much farther from younger kids. “This will save the medical system millions of dollars,”said Democratic Assem blyman Jim Wood. (76) “It will save thousands of lives.” A 2015 s tudy by the Institute of Medicine “found that if the minimum legal age to buy tobacco were raised to 21 nationwide, tobacco use would drop by 12 percent by the time today’s teens reached adulthood. I n addition, there would be 223,000 fewer premature(过早的) deaths and 50,000 fewer deaths from lung cancer.”1. Which of the following is the first state to raise smoking age to 21?A. California.B.

San Francisco Increased the Age to Buy Tobacco Products to 21C.

Some people say she was the daughter of a rich man or a royal prince. One fact we know is that in 1810, James Barry became a medical student at theUniversity of Edinburgh.James Barry’s classmates made fun of her because she didn’t have a beard and she was only five feet tall.

Dr. Barry then went to work in a London hospital and studied surgery. A year later, she entered the army and became a hospital assistant. We will never know how she avoided the army physical examination.For the next 45 years, Dr James Barry was a British officer and a successful surgeon. Everyone admired her. She began to do a lot of important work for the army. (78) At that time. England had many colonies around the world. Dr. Barry spent a lot of time in foreign countries. She travelled to India, Corfu, Malta, and Jamaica. In 1856 she went to South Africa, and she was soon known as the best doctor and surgeon in the governor’s daughter, and later she became the governor’s personal doctor.

The eighth-grader was inspired to kick off his mission on a re cent morning, when his mother was driving him to school. Their car was damaged as it went over a huge pothole in the middle of the s treet in their hometown of Jackson, Mississippi. “I decided I was g oing to do something about the pothole problem in my city,”Chokwe says. His solution: an app(手机应用) that warns drivers when there is a pothole ahead.Chokwe developed the app with his friends Rodriguez. Ratliff and Emmanuel Brooks, “When the app detects a pothole, it is highlighted(突出显示) in red,”Chokwe says. “And if you get close to the pothole, your phone will warn you”Drivers can also use the app to report any potholes they encounter, and to look for other routes they can take to avoid roads that have them.The app relies on current available information about the streets of Jackson. “It works by using the city’s311 call system, so i t uses information already stored in a database,”Chokwe says. (79) Through the call system, citizens dial 3-1-1 to report non-emergency problems-which include potholes. Chokwe and his friends determined th at focusing on the 10 busiest streets in Jackson would give them a large enough sample size to test the prototype (原型)。
