The building of the Bastille had been started in 1370 under Chares V. By the seventeenth century it had ceased to be important for defense. Cardinal Richelieu turned it into a prison. (1) It was not an ordinary prison to punish common crimes. Its huge doors closed only on enemies of the King. The Bastille's workings were secret. Prisoners were taken to it in closed carriages. Soldiers on guard duty had to stand with their faces to the wall. No talking was allowed. Worst of all, a prisoner never knew if he would be there a day, a week, a year, or forever. Only the King’s letter could set him free.Over the years the number of arrests by King's letter had become fewer. By the time of its fall, most of the prisoners were writers who had written against the corrupt deeds of the government. V oltaire the famous French writer spent a year there in 1717_1718, and another l2 days in 1726. For those who believed in free speech and free thinking, the Bastille stood for everything evil. The day it was captured, the ―Conquerors of the Bastille‖ found only seven prisoners inside. None the less, the Bastille was hated by the people. (2) It was a symbol of the King's complete power.1. The Bastille had been a prison______ D ___________.A. since the time of Charles VB. since 1370C. before the seventeenth centuryD. since the time of Cardinal Richelieu2. According to the passage, which of the following is not true? AA. Anyone, who did something wrong could find himself suddenly in the Bastille.B. The Bastille was only for those whose were opposed to the King.C. In the Bastille everything done was done in secret.D. Voltaire was twice put in the Bastille.3. At the time of its fall, in the Bastille there were ___ D ___________.A. a large number of prisonersB. a lot of writers who had been against the governmentC. some dozens of people who believed in free speech and free thinkingD. only seven prisoners4. According to the passage, which of the following statement is true? CA. All prisoners in the Bastille suffered life imprisonment.B. Over the years the number of Prisoners in the Bastille was getting more and more.C. The King could put people in, or let them go out, as he wanted.D. At the time it was captured, there were so few prisoners in it that it meant little to the people.5. The main purpose of this passage is to ____ D __________.A. tell a storyB. tell about interesting charactersC. show the inner working of the BastilleD. try to prove a pointPassage twoMany years ago, when I was fresh out of school and working in Danver, I was driving to my parents’ home in Messouri for Christ mas. I stopped at a gas station about 50 miles from Okiahoma City, where I was planning to stop and visit a friend. While I was standing in line at the cash register, I said hello to an older couple who were also paying for gas.I took off, but had gone only a few miles when black smoke poured from the back of my car. I stopped and wondered what I should do. A car pulled up behind me. It was the couple that I had spoken to at the gas station. They said they would take me to my friend’s. We chatted on the wa y into the city, and when I get out of the car, the husband gave me his business card.I wrote him and his wife a thank-you note for helping me. Soon afterward, I received a Christmas present from them. Their note that came with it said that helping me had made their holidays meaningful.Years later, I drove to a meeting in a nearby town in the morning. In late afternoon I returned to my car and found that I’d left the lights on all day, and the battery(电池) was dead. Then I noticed that the Friendly ford dealership-a shop selling cars-was right next door. I walked over and found two salesmen in the showroom.“Just how friendly is Friendly Ford?‖ I asked and explained my trouble. They quickly drove a pickup truck to my car and started it. They would accept no payment; so when I got home; I wrote them a note to say thanks, I received a letter back from one of the salesmen. No one had ever taken the time to write him and say thank you, and it meant a lot, he said.“Thank you‖- two powerful words. They’re easy to say and mean so much.6.The author planned to stop at Oklahoma City___ A __A. to visit a friendB. to see his parentsC.to pay or the cash registerD.to have more gas for his car7.The words ―took off‖ in Paragraph 2 mean―____B___ ‖ .A. turned offB. moved offC. put upD. set up8.What happened when the author found smoke coming out of his car?

He lost his donkey and he wanted to go to town to buy another. Among the donkeys on sale he saw his own donkey.―This donkey is mine‖, he said to the man standing by the donkey. ―Someone stole it from me three years ago.‖“How is that?‖ the man said. ―It has been mine for three years.‖“Three yea rs?‖the farmer said, ―Are you sure?‖Then he quickly covered the eyes of the donkey with his hand and asked, ―Which eye is it blind in?‖“The right eye,‖ said the man.The farmer took away his right hand and people saw the donkey’s right eye was clear and s hining. “I made a mistake,‖said the man ―I meant to say the left eye.‖“It is not blind in either eye,‖said the farmer. Then he said to the people around, ―It’s clear this man is a thief.‖The people caught the thief and took him to the policeman.

The old farmer ____ B _____ his own donkey back.A. boughtB. gotC. borrowedD. looked forPassage fourAs any homemaker who has tried to keep order at the dinner table knows, there is far more to a family meal than food. Sociologist Michael Lewis has been studying 50 families to find out just how much more Lewis and his co-workers carried out their study by videotaping the families while they ate ordinary meals in their own homes. They found that parents with small families talk actively with each other and their children. But as the number of children gets larger, conversation gives way to the parents’ effort to control the loud noise they make. That can have an important effect on the children. ―In general the more question-asking the parents do, the higher the children’s IQ scores,‖ Lewis says, ―and the more children there are, the less question-asking there is.‖The study also provides an explanation for why middle children often seem to have a harder time in life than their siblings. Lewis found that in families with three or four children, dinner conversation is likely to center on the oldest child, who has the most to talk about, and the youngest, who needs the most attention. ―Middle children are invisible,‖ says Lewis. ―When you see someone get up from the table and walk around during dinner, chances are it’s the middle child.‖ There is, however, one thing that stops a ll conversation and prevents anyone from having attention. ―When the TV is on,‖ Lewis says, ―dinner is a non-event.‖16.The writer’s purpose in writing the text is to ___ C _____.A．show the relationship between parents and childrenB．teach parents ways to keep order at the dinner tableC．report on the findings of a studyD．give information about family problems17．Parents with large families ask fewer questions at dinner because ____ B _______.A．they are busy serving food to their childrenB．they are busy keeping order at the dinner tableC．they have to pay more attention to younger childrenD．they are tired out having prepared food for the whole family18．By saying “Middle children are invisible”in paragraph 3, Lewis means that middle children ___ B ___.A．have to help their parents to serve dinnerB．get the least attention from the familyC．are often kept away from the dinner tableD．find it hard to keep up with other children19．Lewis’research provides an answer to the question _____ D ____.A．why TV is important in family lifeB．why parents should keep good orderC．why children in small families seem to be quieterD．why middle children seem to have more difficulties in life20．Which of the following statements would the writer agree to? CA．It is important to have the right food for children.B．It is a good idea to have the TV on during dinner.C．Parents should talk to each of their children frequently.D．Elder children should help the younger ones at dinnerPassage fiveYou are watching a film in which two men are having a fight. They hit one another hard. At the start they only fight with their fists. But soon they begin hitting one another over the heads with chairs. And so it goes on until one of the men crashes (撞击) through a window and falls thirty feet to the ground below. He is dead！Of course he isn't really dead. With any luck he isn't even hurt. Why? Because the men who fall out of high windows or jump from fast moving trains, who crash cars of even catch fire, are professionals. They do this for a living. These men are called stuntmen. That is to say, they perform tricks. There are two sides to their work. They actually do most of the things you see on the screen. For example, they fall from a high building. However, they do not fall on to hard ground but on to empty cardboard boxes covered with a mattress (床垫). Again, when they hit one another with chairs, the chairs are made of soft wood and when they crash through windows, the glass is made of sugar! But although their work depends on trick of this sort, it also requires a high degree of skill and training. Often a stuntman' s success depends on careful timing. For example, when he is "blown up" in a battle scene, he has to jump out of the way of the explosion just at the right moment.Naturally stuntmen are well paid for their work, but they lead dangerous lives. They often get seriously injured, and sometimes killed. A Norwegian stuntman, for example, skied over the edge of a cliff (悬崖) a thousand feet high. His parachute (降落伞) failed to open, and he was killed. In spite of all the risks, this is no longer a profession for men only. Men no longer dress up as women when actresses have to perform some dangerous action. For nowadays there are stunt girls too.21. Stuntmen are those who ___ C ___.A. often dress up as actorsB. prefer to lead dangerous livesC. often perform seemingly dangerous actionsD. often fight each other for their lives22. Stuntmen earn their living by __ B ____.A. playing their dirty tricksB. selling their special skillsC. jumping out of high windowsD. jumping from fast moving trains23. When a stuntman falls from a high building, __ D ____.A. he needs little protectionB. he will be covered with a mattressC. his life is endangeredD. his safety is generally all right24. Which of the following is the main factor (因素) of a successful performance? BA. Strength.B. Exactness.C. Speed.D. Carefulness.25. What can be inferred from the author' s example of the Norwegian stuntman? AA. Sometimes an accident can occur to a stuntman.B. The percentage of serious accidents is high.C. Parachutes must be of good quality.D. The cliff is too high.三．完型填空Passage oneA land free from destruction, plus wealth, natural resources, and labor supply—all these were important factors in helping England to become the center for the Industrial Revolution. _1__ they were not enough.

苏州科技学院大学英语3期末考题
大学英语期末复习一、阅读理解：共30分(一篇出自书上test 1或test2)Practice Test I (Unit 1-4)Practice Test II (Unit 5-8)二、完型填空。
10分（书上Unit4-Unit6）Unit Four Health(第四单元健康)AIDS is a terrible disease. It poses a threat (1) to all the human beings without caring whether you are black or white, male or female, gay or straight, young or old. But what is at risk(2) now is not just the people infected(3) with the disease. Human civilization itself is being threatened. This is because whole society tolerates both ignorance of and prejudice (4) against HIV or AIDS. Once diagnosed(被诊断)as HIV-positive, the victims are isolated(5) or treated as outcasts. They are believed to have contracted (6) something evil or to have entered some alien state of being. As a result, these poor people have to shelter(7) the flickering candle of life from the cold wind or rejection by their family members. When they die of the disease, their families dare not whisper the word AIDS. They just grieve (8) silently. Thus, our prejudice and silence have the disease along (9). Now HIV marches firmly towards AIDS in more than a million American homes, littering its pathway (10) with the bodies of the young. To guard against the disease effectively, we must take this issue (11) seriously. People should be educated to bring (12) those negative attitudes to an end. We should not see AIDS as something evil (13) and the patients as alien. Instead, we should concern ourselves with (14) the prevention of the disease and render strong support(15) to the patients with morecompassion. Only in this way can we have a better chance of winning the war against AIDS. Unit Five Education（第五单元教育）Mankind hops for a better world to live in.To this end(1), man has to confront the inevitable conflicts that the future holds in store (2). Since education plays an indispensable (3) role in managing those conflicts, the following four pillars of education are proposed. Learning to live together calls for(4) an understanding of others and the awareness of the diversity (5),similarities and interdependence of all people so that people can implement(6) joint projects.
