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 centre.Passage OneHealthy trees are important to us all. Trees provide shade, beauty, and homes for wildlife. Trees give us products like paper and wood. Trees can give us all these only if they are healthy. They must be well cared for to remain healthy.Your trees' trouble may be you yourself. People spend much time and money planting and maintaining trees. Trees help to improve the looks of homes, parks, and public buildings. Yet, people who love trees the most may be the ones who cause them injury. Of course, they do not do this on purpose. They are most likely not aware of the kinds of things that injure trees. There are many people who cause tree injuries. You should become aware of the injuries and avoid causing them. Learn the things that can help to keep your trees healthy.Healthy trees are beautiful. They make our world a pleasant place to live in. Un-healthy trees are not as beautiful. They make the world less pleasant. Healthy trees help to cool and clean the air. They can even deaden sound. Unhealthy trees cannot help or protect the environment. (81) Trees, like people, are disturbed by changes a-round them. Construction of buildings is a major cause of tree injuries.41. According to the passage, onl y trees can give us shade, beauty, and products.A. beautifulB. healthyC. oldD. young42. People who love trees may .A. never cause trees injuryB. damage trees on purposeC. do harm to trees without knowing itD. not be aware of which trees are healthy43. People may improve the looks of their homes and public buildings by .A. keeping unhealthy trees injuredB. making a lot of changes around treesC. cooling and cleaning the air around treesD. planting trees and. keeping them healthy44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Construction of buildings is good for trees.B. Some trees' trouble comes from human beings.C. People should keep trees beautiful.D. Trees are not disturbed by changes around them.45. The purpose of this passage is to tell .A. that people should know the importance of keeping trees healthyB. that people should plant more trees .C. what trees can be used for construction of buildingsD. what kinds of trees look beautifulPassage TwoWhy do we laugh For years scientists have asked themselves, this question. No animals laugh and smile 一 only human beings do. So does laughing help us to live longerThe answer seems t0 11e in that smiling and. laughing help us to become less worried and calm, preventing illnesses that are caused by stress. Laughing is really the best medicine.But if you're unhappy, it can't do you any good to smile, can itThat’s not true. It is clear that smiling works just in the same way whether you feel like smiling or not. Scientists in California asked a group of students to act five different feelings: happiness, sadness, anger, surprise and fear 一 just using their faces. Changes in their heart rate, blood pressure and temperature were recorded. Most of the feelings they acted didn't cause changes, but when the students smiled, their heart rate and their blood pressure went down. That happened even though they were only acting! So even if we feel sad inside, smiling seems to make us feel better.Now, what makes us laugh (82) It seems that the answer to the question is far from simple. Everyone likes jokes, but we don't laugh at the same ones. It depends largely on how old we are. There are some jokes, for example, that children love but older people might not find funny.46. In the first paragraph, the underlined word "stress" can be best explained as” .A. surprise and fearB. work and dutyC. happiness and sadnessD. pressure and worry47. Which of the following statements is TRUE based on the passage?A. Laughing helps us to live ten years longer.B. If you are in a bad mood, smiling helps to make you feel relieved.C. Our blood pressure can be influenced by five different facial expressions mentioned.D. People, old and young, are likely to laugh at the same jokes.48. In the passage, the writer seems to pay more attention to.A. how laughing and smiling are connected with healthB. comparing human beings with animalsC. finding out if any research has been done about laughingD. the degree to which laughing and smiling are helpful49. The passage tells us that smiling and laughing .A. have nothing to do with one's heart rateB. do one no good when one is sadC. improve one's blood pressureD. lower one's body temperature50. According to the author,.A. it is rather complicated to answer the question "Why do we laugh"B. it is really simple to answer the question "Why do we laugh"C. it is not necessary to answer the question "Why do we laugh"D. scientists have already answered the question "why do we laugh"Passage ThreeWhen you have completed your college education, you will look for a job suited to your training, interests, and ambitio n﹒ In most cases, you will visit a likely employer's office and complete an application form for the position in which you are interested.(83)The employer may then make a decision regarding your ability on the basis of your application form and interview.Throughout your lifetime, however, you may find yourself in other job-hunting si t uations in an attempt to improve your position. As you gain experience, you are likely to become ambitious for better and better jobs. These better jobs often require letters of application and summaries of your background and experience. Therefore, your writing skills may play an important part in obtaining the job you desire.In any job hunting situation, there are a number of ways you may use your writing skills: to complete an application form, prepare a resume, write an application letter, or write employment follow-up letters. As an ambitious job-hunter, therefore, you should be able to pre-pare all the written materials that will help you to get the job you want.51. According to the passage, in looking for a job, the students .A. must make an arrangement for an interviewB. may follow their interests and ambitionC. will surely get a chance to improve their positionsD. will always visit every employer's office52.If you want to improve your position and find a better job, it is important t o .A. improve your writing skillsB. make a decision on the basis of your own desireC. get a job related to your educationD. understand the application form of the company53. To find a job, it is NOT necessary for a student to supply .A. a writing sampleB. a letter of applicationC. an application formD. a resume54. Your application for a job should mainly inform the employer of your.A. present position and incomeB. former employersC. background and experienceD. former colleagues55. What may be the best title for this passage?A. How to Complete a Job Application FormB. An Introduction to Job-Hunting SituationsC. Writing Skills Help in Job-HuntingD. An Attempt to Find Better JobsPassage Four(84)Flying over a desert area in an airplane, two scientists looked down with their trained eyes at trees and bushes. After an hour's flight one of the scientists wrote in his book, "Look here for probable metals." Scientists in another airplane, flying over a mountain region, sent a message to other scientists on the ground, "Gold possible." Walking across hilly ground, four scientists reported, "This ground should be searched for metals. " From an airplane over a hill-y wasteland a scientist sent back by radio one word, "Uranium. "None of the scientists had X-ray eyes: they had no magic powers for looking down below the earth's surface. They were merely putting to use one of the newest methods of locating minerals in the ground 一using trees and plants as signs that certain minerals may lie beneath the ground on which the trees and plants are growing.(85)This newest method of searching for minerals is based on the fact that minerals deep in the earth may affect the kind of trees and bushes that grow on the surface. At Watson Bar Creek, a brook six thousand feet high in the mountains of British Columbia, Canada, a miner-al search group gathered bags of tree seeds. 130xes were filled with small branches from the trees, and roots were dug out and put intoboxes with each bag and box carefully marked. In a scientific laboratory, the parts of the forest trees were burned to ashes and tested. Each small part was examined to learn whether there were minerals in it.Study of the roots, branches, and seeds showed no silver. But there were small amounts of gold inthe roots and a little less gold in the branches and seeds. The seeds growing nearest to the tree trunks had more gold than those growing on the ends of the branches.If the trees had not indicated that there was gold in the ground, the scientists would not have spent money to pay for digging deeper. They did dig and found more gold below. When they dug deeper,they :found large quantities of gold.56. Scientists were flying over a desert, or hilly wasteland, or a mountain region in or-der to search forin the ground.A. treesB. bushesC. seedsD. minerals57. The study of trees, branches, and roots indicates tha t .A. there were larger amounts of gold in the branches than in the seedsB. there were smaller amounts of gold in the roots than in the branchesC. there were larger amounts of gold in the seeds growing nearest to the tree trunks than seedsgrowing on the ends of the branchesD. there were more gold in the branches than in the roots58. Which may be the best title for the passage?A. Scientists Searching for Metals with Special PowerB. New Methods of Searching for Trees and BushesC. Gold Could Be Found by Trees and PlantsD. A New Method of Searching for Minerals: Using Trees and Plants59. Based on the passage, all of the following are mentioned as part of a tree that can help find mineralsEXCEPT FOR..

X-rayB. magic powerC. a special instrumentD. the newest methodⅢ.Cloze Test ( 20 分)Directions: There are 20 blanks in each of the following two passages.

The region boasts a diverse array of educational institutions, each offering unique opportunities for students to develop their academic and personal skills. The 2014 Undergraduate Entrance Examination in Shaanxi was no exception, as it presented a challenging yet rewarding experience for the thousands of students who participated.One of the key aspects of the examination was the English language component.

She knew that the next few hours would be crucial in determining the course of her future. As the English section commenced, Emily applied the strategies she had honed during her preparation, carefully analyzing the questions and formulating her responses with precision.The writing component of the English exam was particularly daunting for Emily, as it required her to compose a well-structured and coherent essay on a given prompt. Drawing on her extensive knowledge and her ability to express her thoughts clearly, Emily crafted a compelling essay that showcased her strong command of the English language.In the weeks that followed the examination, Emily anxiously awaited the results, her heart pounding with anticipation.

Reading Comprehension(50分)阅读4片,样题提供前三篇Directions: There are 4 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.Passage OneLearning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience…not to be inhibited (拘谨;抑制)…not to be nervous…”Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.It is the same in writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.O f course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper.”4l. The main task of a public speech course is to ________.A. teach spoken-language experienceB. teach how to use gestures to assist speechC. help the learners overcome nervousnessD. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how tospeak in public in that a writer should ___________.A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first placeB. watch his or her grammar and vocabularyC. collect a lot of data before writingD. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing43.

This selection is mainly about learning how to _______.A.m ake a public speechB.t alk on paperC.b ehave properly in public speechD.e xpress strong emotion on paperPassage TwoIn the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper and so on exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydroelectric power.Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new undersea technology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year , experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.46. What is the best title for the passage?A. Needs of ManB. Sources of EnergyC. SeaHarvest D. Sea Exploring Technology47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because______.A.m an cannot travel farther into spaceB.resources on land are running shortC.i t’s a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancientpeople used to explore the sea48. Why does the author mention a steamship?A.To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than onland.B.To show that a steamship is better than other kindsof ship.C.To argue that man should use steamships more thanother means of transportation.D.To illustrate that man can make use of sources ofenergy from the sea.49. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.man hasn’t completely developed the riches of theseaB.technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC.planting rice in the sea will be made possible in ashort timeD.in the near future man can live on the ocean floor50. The word “exploit” in the last paragraph could best be replaced by________.A.evaluateB. developC. gatherD. scatterPassage ThreeYour passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. In Europe, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is the final proof of identity in almost every county in the world.In l979 almost l5 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few Western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if youtravel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket or check into a hotel. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires or war.Don’t confuse passports and visas. Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit.Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New York, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you mustsubmit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.5l. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.A. discuss traveling in other countriesB. distinguish between passports and visasC. discuss the financial uses of a passportD. provide information about passports52. Passports are beneficial for___________.A. exchanging currencyB. using a credit cardC. checking into hotelsD. all of the above53. We can conclude from the passage that_________.A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenB. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenC. only countries like Argentina, Brazil, andVenezuela now require visas from U.S. citizensD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country54. The passage suggests that_________.A. most people don’t realize how important passports areB. passports aren’t important once you are in thecountry you’ve chosen to visitC. passports are simple to obtain through the mailD. passports are obtained at the embassy once youenter a country55. As used in this passage, the word “valid” in the second paragraph means__________.A. foreignB. legalC. monetaryD. illegal III.Cloze (20分)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Starting from its national conditions, China has, in the process of promoting its overall modernization program, made environmental protection one of its basic policies, regarded the realization of sustainable economic development as an important strategy and meanwhile, carried out throughout the country campaigns for pollution prevention and treatment as well as ecological environmental protection.Over the 35 years since its adoption of reform and opening policy, China’s gross national product has achieved an average annual growth of around l0 percent, while its environment has basically ceased from deteriorating. Practice has shown that China’s endeavor in striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection has been effective.As a member of the international community, China, while making great efforts to protect its own environment, has taken an active part in international environmental protection affairs to promote international cooperation in environmental protection, and earnestly fulfilled her international obligations. All these have given full expression to the sincerity and determination of the Chinese government and people to protect the global environment.Mankind still faces a great many difficulties in solving the problems of the environment and development, and there is a grand task to perform and a long way to go. China will, as it did in the past, cooperate with other countries of the world and strive for the protection of the environment for human survival, for the happiness and prosperity of humanity, and for the benefits of our children.V.
