大学英语第三阶段参考答案
大学英语（二）第三阶段 一、阅读理解 1. How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the ori gin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike ani mals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, a ctions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and t hat later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be written down. Thos e sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words. The power of words, then, lies in their associations - the things they b ring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by exp erience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the mo re the number of words that mean something increases. Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also expres s these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emoti ons. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary sty le. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his mea ning in words which sing like music and which by their position and asso ciation can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our w ords carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech sil ly and vulgar. 纠错 (1) (4分)The origin of language is _________. A. a legend handed down from the past B. a matter that is hidden or secret C. a question difficult to answer D. a problem not yet solved 答案D 解析(2)

1. Today, as in every other day of the year, more than 3,000 U.S. adolescents will smoke their first cigarette on their way to becoming regular smokers as adults. During their lifetime, it can be expected that of these 3,000 about 23 will be murdered, 30 will die in traffic accidents, and nearly 750 will be killed by a smoking-related disease. The number of deaths attributed to cigarette smoking outweighs all other factors, whether voluntary or involuntary, as a cause of death. Since the late 1970s, when daily smoking among high school seniors reached 30 percent, smoking rates among youth have declined. While the decline is impressive, several important issues must be raised. First, in the past several years, smoking rates among youth have declined very little. Second, in the late 1970s, smoking among male high school seniors exceeded that among female by nearly 10 percent. The statistic is reversing. Third, several recent studies have indicate high school dropouts have excessively high smoking rates, as much as 75 percent . Finally, though significant declines in adolescent smoking have occurred in the past decade, no definite reasons for the decline exist. Within this context, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) began its current effort to determine the most effective measures to reduce smoking levels among youth. 1. According to the author, the deaths among youth are mainly caused by _____. A. traffic accidents B. smoking-related diseases C. murder D. all of these 2. Every day there are over _____young people who will become regular smoker. A. 75 B. 23 C. 30 D. 3,000 3. By "dropout" (in paragraph 3) the author means______. A. students who failed the examination

Michael Welzenbach 1. When I was 12 years old, my family moved to England, the fourth major move in my short life. My father’s government job demanded that he go overseas every few years, so I was used to wrenching myself away from friends. 2. We rented an 18th-century farmhouse in Berkshire. Nearby were ancient castles and churches. Loving nature, however, I was most delighted by the endless patchwork of farms and woodland that surrounded our house. In the deep woods that verged against our back fence, a network of paths led almost everywhere, and pheasants rocketed off into the dense laurels ahead as you walked. 3. I spent most of my time roaming the woods and fields alone, playing Robin Hood, daydreaming, collecting bugs and bird-watching. It was heaven for a boy —but a lonely heaven. Keeping to myself was my way of not forming attachments that I would only have to abandon
