2015-2010年英语三级(A级)阅读真题整理(附答案)

2014年真题（1）Task 1Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Many jobs have been lost and they may not be coming back. Some occupations had already been declining for years due to advances in technology and changes in the global economy. The following is a list of careers that are disappearing.Stage PerformersThe five-year decline for this career was a surprising 61%. Stage performances have fallen out of fashion and have been almost entirely replaced with movies and home entertainment technologies.Postal Service Mail Sorters (分拣员)After losing almost 57000 jobs between 2004 and 2009, a further 30% decline in this occupation can be seen by 2018. With more automatic processes for mail sorting and increasing correspondence via e-mail and fax, this job is quickly becoming unnecessary.Office Support WorkersAbout 300000 office support jobs disappeared between 2004 and 2009. Secretaries and file clerks are no longer in demand as companies cut costs. Moreover, technologies like voicemail and easy-to-use word processors have enabled professionals to do their own office work.Photo ProcessorsWith the rise of digital photography and automatic printing, positions for manual photo printers are rapidly disappearing. The occupation has been steadily losing jobs in the last five years and there might be a 24% decline by 2018.Radio OperatorsAs technology advances, the need for workers to monitor communications via radiotelephone equipment is disappearing. This already small field saw a five-year decline of 43%.1. According to the first paragraph, because of the advances in technology and global economic changes, ______.A.many jobs are disappearing sharplyB.many new occupations are emergingC.people are attracted to higher-paying jobsD.part-time jobs have become more popular2. One reason why the career of stage performers is declining so fast is that ______.A.stage performers can no longer earn big moneyB.fewer people are qualified as stage performersC.there is less investment in stage performancesD.stage performances have become less popular3. The benefit of using new technologies in the office is that ______.A.office workers can work on a flexible work systemB.professionals are able to do their own office workC.secretaries and file clerks are badly in needD.employees can enjoy better social welfare4. The author expects that by 2018 the occupation of photo processors might decline by ______.A.61%B.43%C.30%D.24%5. Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?A.Advanced TechnologiesB.Rising UnemploymentC.Disappearing CareersD.Global EconomyTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1.We try to ensure that GFL Solid Waste Haulage (清运) Division is a company that acts safely and responsibly at all times and in all places.

Compared to other media, email messages are extremely cheap to send. With TV, you are spending on ad agencies and cable channels. With print ads, you are helping to keep newspapers and magazines alive. Direct mail costs more than $600 per thousand pieces. With email, there are almost no costs at all. Its low cost makes email marketing become the most cost-effective (划算的) advertising method available today.With TV, you do not know who is watching your ads. Even with direct mail, you cannot be sure that your mail has been delivered, or that anyone reads it when it gets there. With email, you know within 24 hours exactly which messages have been opened, by whom, what links the openers clicked on (点击), and what part of your message was working.Because of electronic links, those who open your emails can do their own research: they can explore and see any of the thousands of products that you sell. They can see the colors and sizes. They can, and they do, read ratings and reviews. They can put products in their shopping carts and buy them.36、Email marketing has become the most cost-effective advertising method because______.A. it is of extremely low costB. it is a new marketing methodC. it is popular with young peopleD. it is the best marketing method available37、By saying "with print ads, you are helping to keep newspapers and magazines alive" (Para. 1), the writer means that ______.A. your investment is important to newspapers and magazinesB. your ads are helping newspapers and magazines surviveC. print ads are more attractive than TV and email adsD. print matters are less expensive than emails38、According to the passage, if you place an ad on TV, you are unable to know ______.A. how often your ad is displayedB. how much your ad costsC. when your ad is shownD. who your audience is39、If you market by emailing, you can learn within a day ______.A. who have opened your messagesB. how old your message readers areC. what quality your advertised product hasD. how much your advertising messages cost40、What enables the email ad readers to do their own research?A.

Please note, however, that this pamphlet does not represent a complete list of the motor vehicle and traffic laws of the various states. Regardless of whether or not a specific law is outlined below, it is your responsibility as the driver to follow all applicable (适合的) motor vehicle and traffic laws. Do Not Drink and Drive!Each state strictly prohibits Driving While Drunk.Wear Seatbelts—It's the Law!Also, the use of child seats for babies and small children (usually under age 5) is required to stay in all states. Place child seats in the back seat only.Stay to the RightIn the United States, motor vehicles are operated on the right hand side of the road. Be extremely careful to stay to the right at all times--especially if you are from a left-hand drive country.Obey the Speed LimitIn most states, the maximum highway speed is 65 miles per hour (mph) in rural areas and 55 mph in urban (市区的) areas. Speed limits on secondary roads and in cities and towns are usually significantly lower, generally 30 mph and even lower in school zones.Stop for School BusesTraffic approaching in both directions must stop for a school bus while its red lights are flashing.41、The purpose of the "Rules of the Road" pamphlet is to ______.A. provide a full list of traffic laws and regulations in the USB. help drivers to enjoy safe and pleasant driving in the USC. tell drivers to avoid dangerous roads in various statesD. show drivers the different road signs in all the states42、If you travel with a child under the age of 5, you should ______.A. put him in a child seatB. carry him in your armC. have him sit beside youD. fasten him in the front seat43、What does a driver from a left-hand drive country need to do while driving in the US?A.

Although you see all the online advertising, there aren't that many of them. Those that are available may require that you live in a certain area or spend at least some time in the office. Others may be only part-time jobs.Keep in mind that the skills needed for home employment are similar to those needed for working in an office. You'll also need a home office with a high speed internet connection, phone, fax, computer, printer, and other basic office equipment.To get started, consider your job search as your job. Spend as many hours per week on your job search as you would spend working. If you're looking for full-time work, you should be spending fill-time hours seeking a job.Networking (人际关系) remains the top way to find a job and it does work. Develop contacts—friends, family, even the other job seekers—anyone who might have the information you need. You can take a direct approach and ask for job information or try a less formal approach and ask for information and advice. Contact everyone you know and tell them you want to work from home. You may be surprised by the people they know and the job information they can provide.36、According to the first paragraph, it is not easy to find good work-at-home jobs because ______.A. they are seldom advertised online or in newspapersB. they may require that you live in a certain placeC. you are always asked to work full-timeD. you need to have a college degree37、Compared with those needed for working in an office, the skills for working at home are ______.A. much easierB. totally differentC. almost the sameD. more challenging38、To find a good work-at-home job, you are advised to ______.A. create a website of your ownB. contact as many companies as you canC. try your best to look for full-time employmentD. spend as much time as possible on your job search39、According to the passage, the best way to find a work-at-home job is ______.A. through networkingB. by personal visitsC. by online applicationD. through emailing40、The passage is mainly about ______.A. how to build a work-at-home officeB. how to look for a work-at-home jobC. the equipment needed for home workingD. the skills required for working from homeTask 2Running your small business requires good staff. Once you find them, you don't want to let them go elsewhere.During an employee's time with a company, there are a number of forces that influence his or her behavior. I like to refer to them as "push" and "pull" . You're either pushing an employee towards the door, or pulling them deeper into your organization.Suppose that you've made a good hire and you want to keep the employees, the trick is to recognize individual needs of employees and satisfy those needs, within reason, in order to keep pulling them away from the door. Even if you can't pull them away from the door, at least don't do things to push them out the door.Recognize that some employees will lose interest and need something fresh to keep their interest. If you can't continually provide challenges, opportunities for promotion and other interesting and rewarding opportunities, then you'll have some employees leave through no fault of your own.The important thing is to identify your key employees and make certain they are being treated well. Communicate with them on a regular basis to make certain that you understand what makes them behave in a particular way, and be aware of concerns they may have about job satisfaction.41、The author uses the word "push" (para.2) to mean the force that ______.A. makes employees satisfied with their workB. drives employees to work more efficientlyC. causes employees to leave their companyD. keeps employees to remain in their company42、To keep your employees, you are advised to ______.A. recognize and meet their needsB. identify and overcome their faultsC. offer them a salary as high as possibleD. provide them with a better working condition43、According to the passage, when is it possible for some employees to lose interest?A. They have no rewarding opportunities.B. The company is located in a remote area.C. They make many mistakes in their work.D. The company is not big enough for development.44、How should you deal with your key employees according to the last paragraph?A. Make them behave well.B. Meet with them every day.C. Pay regular visits to their family.D. Make sure they are well-treated.45、The passage is mainly about ______.A. how to keep your employeesB. the importance of key employeesC. how to challenge your employeesD. the difference between "push" and "pull"BCDAB；CAADA2013年真题（2）Task 1Jack Welch is among the famous CEOs because his management style is taught at business schools throughout the country. He has been with the General Electric Company (GE. since 1960. Having taken GE with a market value of about $12 billion, Jack Welch turned it into one of the largest and most admired companies in the world, with a market value of about $500 billion, when he stepped down as its CEO 20 years later, in 2000.As Jack Welch wrote in a letter to shareholders: "In the old culture, managers got their power from secret knowledge: profit margins, market share, and all that... In the new economy, the role of the leader is to express a vision, and put it into practice. That calls for open, caring relations with every employee, and face-to-face communication. People who can't convincingly (有说服力的) express a vision won't be successful. But those who can will become even more open—because success builds up self-confidence."Welch believed that great business leaders have to:·possess large amounts of energy, and·know how to use that energy to motivate others.Welch moves from meeting to meeting, conveying that message—and many more others as well, some of which have become his trademarks:·Business is simple.·Don't make it complicated.·Face reality.·Don't be afraid of change.·Use the brains of your workers.36、According to the first paragraph, Jack Welch, as a CEO, is famous for his ______.A. technical knowledgeB. overseas experienceC. family backgroundD. management style37、When Jack Welch took charge of the company, it had a market Value of about ______.A. $12 billionB. $20 billionC. $500 billionD. $2000 billion38、According to Jack Welch, the relations between the employer and employees should be ______.A. personal and friendlyB. casual and naturalC. open and caringD. strict and formal39、In the sentence "... some of which have become his trademarks", the word "trademarks" means ______.A. product brandsB. speaking mannerC. advertising strategyD. special characteristics40、This passage is mainly about ______.A. relations between the employer and employeesB. Jack Welch's view of business managementC. development history of GE companyD. courses taught in business schoolsTask 2From: Linda SmithTo: Clarice RyanSubject: Report on Employees' Use of TimeClarice, I agree that waste of work time is a serious issue. The Human Resources Department recently surveyed the employees. They are wasting nearly two hours per day. Here are my ideas to reduce this waste. First we need to agree on what are the most important behaviors to stop. For example, look at activity No. 1 in the table below. Many people are doing this; however, it is the most difficult to stop. I recommend that we focus on activities No. 2, 4, and 5.Making phone calls shows the largest difference between men and women. Women do this much more than men. We should ask all employees to limit these calls. They should return non-urgent messages at their lunch break.For No. 4, we should focus on the younger age group. We will tell them that we are going to check their work accounts for personal messages. For No. 5, we can ask managers to watch this more carefully. Perhaps activity No. 3 should continue. This allows employees to know each other and it can increase their motivation. The managers will know if someone is spending too much time talking and not enough time working.Are you available tomorrow? I'd like to meet with you to discuss our next step.Department?A. Working conditions are to be improved.B. Some employees need re-training.C. Employees lack motivation.D. Much work time is wasted.42、The greatest difference between men and women in the non-work-related activities is ______.A. taking long breaksB. making phone callsC. talking with colleaguesD. sending non-urgent messages43、The employees are advised to return non-urgent messages ______.A. after workB. back at homeC. before office hoursD. during their lunch break44、The table shows that the non-work-related activities employees most often do was ______.A. going onlineB. talking with each otherC. writing personal emailsD. making personal phone calls45、Why does the writer suggest that activity No.3 should continue?A. It can help employees increase motivation.B. It can help managers to check on the work accounts.C. It can show how much time employees actually work.D. It can encourage young employees to work more efficiently.DACDB；DBDAA2012年真题（1）Task 1Marketing furniture to the public can be challenging for a small business owner. Consumers buy furniture pieces only occasionally. However, there are several furniture promotion ideas that can be used to help you reach your target market.One thing you can do is to talk with real estate (房地产) agents to allow you to display your furniture in a new home or open house setting. This is a good way to reach a key targetmarket—new home buyers—who may need new furniture for their future homes. Increasing toot traffic (顾客流量) is also important for a furniture store. To get more people to the store, you can advertise a raffle event (抽奖活动). This event can be promoted in your local media and through direct mail campaigns or front door advertisements to generate more interest. In tough economic times, small business owners often suffer most as a result of slow consumer spending. To fight back against this, you have to make it easier for your customers to buy furniture. If you can, offer instore financing, or drop the interest rate on your company's credit terms. Consider lowering your prices and holding two-for-one events to arouse more consumer interest.36、Why is it a challenge for small businesses to sell furniture to the public?A. The style of furniture changes fast.B. Their furniture is often old-fashioned.C. People buy furniture only occasionally.D. The public's taste for furniture is different.37、According to the writer, it is a good way for small business owners to sell their furniture by ______.A. improving after-sales serviceB. reducing the advertising expensesC. providing free delivery of furnitureD. displaying the furniture in a new home38、To get more customers to your store, you are advised to ______.A. advertise a raffle eventB. visit your local customersC. have longer business hoursD. improve local traffic conditions39、The purpose of holding two-for-one events is to ______.A. offer in-store financingB. lower the furniture's costC. attract consumers'interestD. reduce the advertising budget40、The passage is mainly about ______.A. furniture designingB. furniture promotionC. furniture store decorationD. furniture production processTask 2Although buses tend to be slower than the subway for traveling around New York City, there are many reasons to use the bus while visiting New York City:They tend to service areas of Manhattan that are not located close to subway lines.Buses offer the added advantage of being able to see various areas of Manhattan while you ride.How Much Does the Bus Cost?Fare is ＄2.25 and can be paid with a MetroCard or coins (no dollar bills, no pennies).A free transfer to another bus or the subway within 2 hours is available if you paid with a MetroCard.If you pay cash you can ask for a transfer, but it is only good for transferring to another bus (not to the subway) within 2 hours.Getting On and Off the BusYou must wait for buses at designated (指定的) bus stops.As you see the bus approaching your stop, you can put your arm out to indicate to the driver that you want to board the bus.Enter the bus through the front doors and pay your fare.Take a seat or move toward the back of the bus to make room for other people boarding the bus.To request a stop: Pull the cord or press the black band near the windows.

For each question or statement there are 4 choices markedA.,B.,C. and D ). You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.The practice of exchanging foreign currency can vary by country. In one country, you may have to change your money at the airport, and in other countries you may need to buy your foreign currency in advance. Here are some places you can exchange foreign currency for U.S. currency.Your BankIn many cases you can purchase U. S. currency for your trip from a bank. Banks tend to have higher exchange rates than some currency exchange businesses. Before you purchase currency from a bank, check the currency change rates for that day so you can compare the rate the bank is giving and determine if it's a good offer. There is a fee involved in withdrawing foreign currency from your bank.The AirportCurrency exchange businesses can be found at most international airports, so you can purchase U. S. currency either before you board your flight or at the U.S. airport on arrival. Note that U. S. airports typically have fewer currency exchange counters than travelers are accustomed to seeing in other parts of the world. If the airport you are flying into is not in a major U. S. city, consider using the exchange service in your departure airport to be on the safe side. If you are in an airport where several exchange companies operate, be sure to shop around for the best rate and lowest exchange fee.36、The practice of exchanging foreign currency ______.A. changes with time of the yearB. depends on exchange rates of the dayC. is exactly the same all over the worldD. is likely to differ from country to country37、When you withdraw foreign currency from your bank, you have to ______.A. open a bank accountB. pay a fee to the bankC. use your credit cardD. inform the bank in advance38、Before purchasing foreign currency from a bank, you are advised to ______.A. compare the exchange ratesB. examine the services of the bankC. pay the exchange fee in advanceD. deposit some money with the bank39、In which case are you advised to consider using the exchange service in your departure airport?A.

2010年11月成人英语三级考试真题(A卷)及答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A)2010.11.06Part 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Archaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek and means, more or less, “the study of old things”. So, it is really a part of the study of history. However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs，but archaeologists (考古学家) learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago. Normally, these are the hard materials that don't break down or disappear very quickly—things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal.It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence ofhistory--normally, the bacteria (细菌) in the air eat away at soft materials, like bodies, clothes and things made of wood. Occasionally, things are different.In 1984, two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss, in the north of England. A bog is a very wet area of earth, with a lot of plants growing in it. It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup—walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear forever. The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out—a human foot! Naturally, the men called the police，who then found the rest of the body. Was it a case of murder? Possibly--but it was a death nearly two thousand years old. The two men had found a body from the time of the Roman invasion of Britain. Despite being so old, this body had skin, muscles, hair and internal organs—the scientists who examined him were able to look inside the man's stomach and find the food that he had eaten for his last meal! Why was this man so well preserved? (76) It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe fi:om the bacteria that need oxygen to live. Also, the water in the bog was very acidic. The acid preserved the man's skin in the way that animal skin is preserved for leather coats and shoes.How did he die? Understandably, archaeologists and other scientists wanted to know more about the person that they called,“Lindow Man”. (77) His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn't done heavy manual work in his life—he could have been a rich man. They found that he hadn't died by accident. The archaeologists believe that he was sacrificed to three different gods.1. Which language does the word “archaeology”come from?A. French.B. Greek.C. Roman.D. German.2. The word “these” in the first paragraph refers to_______.A. lettersB. photographsC. paintingsD. objects3. Which of the following helped to preserve“Lindow Man”?A. Ice and Iow temperature.B. Bacteria and oxygen.C. Soil and energy.D. Acid and water.4. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. “Lindow Man”was named after the person who first found him.B. Historians usually use paper evidence, while archaeologists use hard evidence.C. “Lindow Man” was found by two archaeologists in the south of England.D. “Lindow Man”was good at manual work.5. Which is the best title for the passage?A. What Is Archaeology?B. Archaeology and HistoryC. An Amazing Archaeological DiscoveryD. The Death of“Lindow Man”Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The city has always been an engine of intellectual life, from the 18th-century cafes of London, where citizens gathered to discuss chemistry and politics, to the Left Bank bars of modern Paris, where Picasso talked about modem art. Without the metropolis, we might not have had the great art of Shakespeare.And yet, city life isn't easy. Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing. Just being in an urban environment, they have found, impairs (损害) our basic mental processes. (78) After spending a few minutes on a crowded city street, the brain is less able to hold things in memory, and suffers from reduced self-control. While it's long been recognized that city life is exhausting, this new research suggests that cities actually dull our thinking, sometimes dramatically so.One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain. Studies have demonstrated, for instance, that hospital patients recover more quickly when they can see trees from their windows, and that women living in public housing are better able to focus when their apartments overlook a lawn. Even these glimpses of nature improve brain performance, it seems, because they provide a mental break from the urban life.This research arrives just as humans cross an important milestone (里程碑). For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities. Instead of inhabiting wide-open spaces, we're crowded into concrete jungles, surrounded by traffic and millions of Strangers. In recent years, it's become clear that such unnatural surroundings have important implications for our mental and physical health, and can powerfully alter how we think.This research is also leading some scientists to dabble (涉足) in urban design, as they look for ways to make the city less damaging to the brain. (79) The good news is that even slight alterations, such as planting more trees in the inner city or creating urban parks with a greater variety of plants, can significantly reduce the negative side effects of city life. The mind needs nature, and even a little bit can be a big help.6. Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?A. The city inspires talented people.B. The city hurts your brain.C. The city has many pleasures and benefits.D. The city seriously affects the natural balance.7. The word “metropolis” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.A. citizenB. natureC. cityD. stress8. People have just come to realize that_______.A. human attention is a scarce resourceB. city life can make people very tiredC. the city is an engine of intellectual lifeD. an urban environment is damaging to the brain9. What is the factor mentioned in the third paragraph that helps the hospital patients recover more quickly?A. Nature.B. Better treatment.C. Experienced doctors.D. Good medicine.10. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Different aspects (方面) of an urban environment, such as the crowded streets, can lead to an increase in self-control.B. Small changes in urban design, cannot reduce the negative side effects of city life.C. For the first time in history, the earth's population is more urban than rural.D. A walk down a busy city street will improve brain performance.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:Breastfeeding (母乳喂养) for a month or longer appears to reduce a woman's risk of getting diabetes (糖病) later in life, according to a new study. The breastfeeding and diabetes link has been reported in other studies, according to researcher Eleanor Schwarz. Yet, her study makes the link easier to believe. Her study is published in a journal of medicine in America. Schwarz and her colleagues looked at data about breastfeeding practices. They evaluated data on 2,233 women f~om Califomia. Of those, 405 were not mothers, 1,125 were mothers who breastfed for at least a month, and 703 were mothers who had never breastfed. They were 40 to 78 years old.According to Schwarz's study, the risk of getting a diagnosis (诊断) of Type 2 diabetes for women who breastfed all their children for a month or longer was similar to that of women who had not given birth. But mothers who had never breastfed were nearly twice as likely to develop diabetes as women who had never given birth. Mothers who never breastfed were about 1.4 times as likely to develop diabetes as women who breastfed for one to three months, Schwarz found.While one month of breastfeeding appears to make a difference, Schwarz says, even longer is better. (80) “Previous studies have shown the longer the mom breastfeeds, the more benefit for her body.” Many experts recommend breastfeeding for six months and continuing for a year, she says.The diabetes-breastfeeding link is probably explained by belly fat. Mothers, who don't breastfeed, as they get older, may have more belly fat, as breastfeeding helps new mothers take off weight. “Belly fat increases the risk of diabetes as you get older,” she says.The finding isn't surprising at all, says Kimberly Gregory. She often gives advice to women who get diabetes (occurring during pregnancy (怀孕)) that they are at risk for later getting Type 2 diabetes and suggests they breastfeed. The new findings will probably inspire Gregory to add to the-advice she gives moms-to-be about the benefits of breastfeeding. She often focuses on the benefits to the baby.11. According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. About two thousand and two hundred old women took part in the study.B. Eleanor Schwarz's research program was about men and women who suffered from diabetes.C. Over one fifths of the women never got married.D. Eleanor Schwarz's results seem more reliable.12. According to Schwarz's findings, who are more likely to get diabetes later in life?A. Those mothers who had never breastfed.B. Those mothers who never gave birth.C. Those mothers who breastfed for a month.D. Those mothers who breastfed for six months.13. Which of the following statements would Schwarz agree with?A. Breastfeeding is not advisable because it is not good for a mom to keep a good shape.B. Breastfeeding can greatly reduce a mother's chances of getting all kinds of serious disease.C. Breastfeeding for a month is highly recommended: the longer, the better.D. Breastfeeding for a month or longer makes babies smarter.14. What does the author mean by “moms-to-be” in the last paragraph?A. Women who are pregnant, especially for the first time.B. Women who dream of having babiesfor the first time.C. Women who already have children.D. Women who have just got babies for the first time.15. Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.

Reading Comprehension (40 points; 55 minutes)Section 1Directions: Each of the following three passages is followed by some questions. Foreach question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to eachquestion. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage OneQuestions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.For the past twenty years, poll-takers (民意测验者) have told us that the vast majority of Americans report that they are “satisfied” or “very satisfied” with their jobs. But, when the surveys pose a slightly different question—“If you hadto do it over, would you choose the same line of work?”—sixty percent of wor Americans say they would choose another occupation. This seems to tell us that Americans feel that they are supposed to like their jobs but, in reality, they don’t. Most of us are stuck in jobs we’d prefer not to have. And some of us actually hate what we do.How does this happen in a land where citizens are presumably free to do, and become, anything they want? First of all, some of us didn’t deliberately choose our jobs but simply fell into them. Later, there was never time to find out what we really wanted to do.Another reason people dislike their jobs is the result of a change in the American economy. A hundred years ago most Americans worked for themselves on farms or in small stores and workshops. Now, less than 10 percent of us are self-employed. Manyof us work as cogs (轮牙) in the wheels of giant corporations. We don’t make a finished product with our own hands, and we feel that we are totally replaceable parts in the machine. Social scientists say that the happiest workers are the ones who are their own bosses—business owners, executives, and professionals. Wor for a big company often results in a sense of powerlessness and malaise. Finally, being a member of the baby boom generation increases the chances of job dissatisfaction.In the struggle for careers among the members of this large population “bulge”, many people are losing out in the competition. These individuals may never achieve the standard of living their parents achieved, or go as far up the success ladderas they had hoped. The result is bitterness, and a feeling of being trapped in a “nowhere” job.41. The best title for this selection is __________.A. Job SatisfactionB. Why People Hate Their JobsC. Nowhere JobsD. A Change in the Workplace42. Which sentence best expresses the main idea of the selection? __________.A. Job burnout is a growing problemB. Large companies provide many benefits for workersC. Workers are unhappy because they no longer work with their handsD. There are several reasons why workers are unhappy with their jobs43. According to the passage, the majority of Americans __________.A. would choose another occupation if they could begin againB. are self-employedC. feel that they are supposed to dislike their jobsD. work in factories44. The author implies that __________.A. job dissatisfaction is a sign of lazinessB. the baby-boomers despise their parentsC. polls can be misleadingD. wor for a corporation is very satisfying45. The word “malaise” (Line7, Para. 3) means __________.A. depressionB. fulfillmentC. contentmentD. significancePassage TwoQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.Most forest fires are caused by human carelessness or ignorance. Forest fire prevention, therefore, is mainly a problem of creating better understanding of the importance of forests, an awareness of the danger of fire in the woods, and a sense of personal responsibility to safeguard the forests from danger. This is not an easy job.Careless smokers are responsible for thousands of forest fires each year. Many of these are started when cigarette butts (烟蒂) and matches are thrown from automobiles. Others are caused by hunters, hikers (徒步旅行者), fishermen, or woods workers who are careless in disposing of their smo materials. The Forest Service has posted rules in many of the National Forests that prohibit smo except in certain designated areas. Many of the states have laws against throwing lighted materials from automobiles. The prevention of smoker-caused fires, however, depends upon changing the attitudes and behavior of millions of people who smoke in hazardous areas.The most important natural cause of fire is lightning (闪电). This accounts for 11 percent of forest fires on protected land for the entire nation. In the Western States, lightning causes a much higher percentage of fires than it does in the East.Advances in knowledge of fire weather are helping forest protection forces to know when to be alert to lightning-caused fires. Adequate and well-equipped forces can control them quickly and hold the damage to a minimum. Experiments in “seeding”thunder clouds to prevent or control the lightning itself have been in process for many years, but new breakthroughs are needed for any significant reduction in the fires lightning starts.46. This passage is chiefly about __________.A. smo in forestsB. changing the attitudes and behavior of millions of peopleC. the chief causes of forest fires and their preventionD. advances in knowledge of fire weather47. Preventing smoker-caused forest fires is mainly a problem of __________.A. building the proper knowledge and habits in human beingsB. safeguarding the forests from fireC. posting rules in forestsD. holding the damage to a minimum48. Lightning-caused fires can be controlled quickly by __________.A. holding the fire damage to a minimumB. people who have changed their attitudes and behaviorC. enough fire fighters with good fire-fighting devicesD. carrying out experiments in “seeding” thunder clouds49. “Alert to” (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably means __________.A. aware ofB. watchful forC. responsible forD. busy with50. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? __________.A. It is difficult to prevent forest firesB. Smo is allowed only in certain forestsC. 11% of the forest fires in the Western States are caused by lightningD. Experiments in “seeding” thunder clouds have helped reduce lightning-caused forest firesPassage ThreeQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them；often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes．Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore．At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries；however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell．A third department looks at the places where people work，and then reports any companies that are brea the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course，new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness，but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better.Producers are thin more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products．51.The main topic of the passage is _________.A. conditions in the work placeB. the freedom of industries in the pastC. changes in industrial productionD. the safety and health of workers andcustomers52. It can be inferred from the passage that in the past _________.A. workers often got ill because of the poor wor conditionsB. companies were free to put out any products they wanted toC. many people were killed by dangerous productsD. industries were as careful in management as they are today53. It is implied in the passage that _________.A. governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of productsB. governments paid little attention to the safety of productsC. government officials often did not listen to scientistsD. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments54. Some years ago safety rules _________.A. were put forward due to scientists’ recommendationsB. came into being as a result of the workers’ demandsC. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriouslyinjuredD. were effective enough to protect workers and customers55. The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways EXCEPTby _________.A. testing new productsB. controlling the sale of productsC. designing new productsD. inspecting work placesSection 2Directions: Read the following passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (A) or false (B). Then blacken the corresponding letter（A or B）on the Answer Sheet. (对的在答题卡上涂A, 错的在答题卡上涂B)Passage FourQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.When someone who is in good health dies suddenly, there is usually an inquest. An inquest is a kind of court inquiry. The person in charge of an inquest is called a coroner (验尸官). His job is to find out exactly how a person died.If there is nothing suspicious (怀疑的) about the death, he would decide that the person died from natural causes or an accident. If, however, he is suspicious, he may decide that the person’s death was caused by a person or persons unknown. At one inquest, the coroner was trying to find out exactly what had caused the death of a local businessman, Henry Smith.The man’s widow was offering the evidence. She was very upset and had to stop from time to time.The coroner did not want to upset her more than necessary, but he had to find out the truth. There were questions he had to ask her.“Mrs. Smith, I know this is too much for you,” he said, “but I want you to think very carefully and then answer my questions.”“You and your husband were having dinner at home. Is that correct?”“Yes.”“Suddenly he fell to the floor.”“Yes.”“Did he say anything?”The widow lowered her head.“Please, Mrs. Smith, you must answer the question. What were his last words?” The widow took a deep breath and then spoke. “He said,” she whispered, “I’m not surprised you were charged only 50 cents for that seafood we had for dinner.”( ) 56. An inquest is done in one’s home.( ) 57. The coroner decides on the nature of a person’s death.( ) 58. The coroner was very careful in as Mrs. Smith questions so as not to upset her.( ) 59. Mrs. Smith was quick to tell the truth.( ) 60. The bad seafood was responsible for Mr. Smith’s death.Part IV. Short Answer Questions (10 points; 15 minutes)Directions:In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words) . Write your answers on the Answer Sheet of Paper Two. （请将此部分的解答写在试卷二的答题纸上）Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.All of us communicate with one another nonverbally as well as with words. Most of the time we’re not aware that we’re doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or hands, meet someone else’s eyes and look away, or change positions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful about how and when they meet one another’s eyes. In our normal conversation, each eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other’s eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations.Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing something. But there are other possible interpretations, too. Another example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man’s eyes a little longer than usual it can be a sign of respect, it can be a challenge to the professor’s authority, or it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in thesituation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.Communication between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with words.61. How can people communicate with each other besides language?_________________________________________________________________62.Like language, gesture is___________________________________________________.63.According to the second paragraph, an American will feel uncomfortable if someone__________________________________________________________________64.If a student holds his professor’s eyes a little longer in a conversation, whatcan it mean?__________________________________________________________________65.What is the main idea of the passage?__________________________________________________________________Part V.

"What we showed is glucose （葡萄糖）metabolism（代谢）（a sign of brain activity） increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,” said Dr. Nora VOlkow of the NIH, whose study was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. （76） The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。

2010年5月北京成人英语三级考试A卷试题及答案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 bla cken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:转自学练网The multi-billion-dollar Western pop music industry is under fire. It is bei ng blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwid e. “The most worrying development is a culture of drug-friendliness,”says the UN's International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.The 74-page study says that pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures.“Some songs en courage people to take drugs. (76) Certain pop stars make statements and set e xamples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle,”the study says.Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems t o survive despite the occasional shock of death by overdose (过量用药). “Such incidents tend to be seen as an occasion to mourn (哀悼) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity t o face the deadly effect of drug use,”it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singers and movie stars--includi ng Elvis Presley, Janice Joplin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin a nd Andy Gibbs--have died of eitherdrug abuse or drugrelated illnesses. With th e globalization of popular music, messages promoting, drug abuse are now reac hing beyond their countries of origin. “In most countries, the names of certain POP stars have become familiar to the members of every household,”the s tud y says.The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug in cidents, which encourages rather than prevents drag abuse. “Over the past year s, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly regarded as being acceptable or even attracti ve,”says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. “Powerful press ure groups mn political campaigns aimed at legalizing controlled drugs,”he says. Ghodse also points out that all thee developments have created an environmen t which is tolerant(容忍的) of or even favorable to drug abuse and spoils inter national drug prevention effortscurrently under way.转自学练网The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environ ment that has become tolerant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act against the pro-drug (赞成吸毒) messages of the youth culture to which young people increasingly are be'rug exposed.1. Which of the following statements does ,the author tend to agree with?A. The use of drags for non-medicinal purposes is, an acceptable part ofa person's lifestyle.B. The spreading ofpop music may cause drag abuse to go beyondcountry boundaries.C. No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drag abuse.D. Governments have no ability to act against the pro-drag messages ofthe youth culture.2. The expression “under fire”? in the first paragraph meansA. in an urgent situationB. facing some problemsC. being criticizedD. in trouble3. From the third paragraph, we learn that the youthA. tend to mourn the pop stars who died of overdose as role modelsB. are shocked to know even pop stars may abuse dmgsC. try to face the deadly effect of drug useD. may stop abusing drugs4. Which of the following is. not mentioned as tolerant of drug abuse?A. The spreading of pop music.B. The media.C. Political campaigns run by powerful pressure groups.D. The low price of some drags.5. According to the passage, pop musicA. has a great influence on young people of most culturesB. attracts a small number of young peopleC. is not a profitable industryD. is alone responsible for drug abusePassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:There are many older people in the world and there will be manymore. A liMe-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in de veloping countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.What arethe implications of these increased numbers of older folk? (77) O ne of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live. the m ore likelihood there is for diseases and for disability( 残疾). Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.(78) Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations t o understand and value the older people in their society. In some African coui ntries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones~ with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.转自学练网Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination (歧视) in employ ment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to, build a suitable safety net.To achieve equality in such matters will take considerable time and effort. One thing is sure: there is no time to be lost.6. The proportion of older peopleA. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countriesB. is one-seventh of the population developing countriesC. will increase much faster in China than in FranceD. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 20207. According to the passage, which of the following are governments mostworded about?A. The diseases and disability of older people.B. The longer life and good health of people.C. The loss of taxes on older people.D. The increasing respect for older people.8. It is stated directly in the passage that older people shouldA. be treated differently in different culturesB. enjoy a similar lifestyleC. be ignored as society changesD. be valued by the younger generations9. Which of the following measures is NOT mentioned to solve thepopulation ageing problem?A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.B. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.C. Providing free health care for sick older people.D. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.10. The author concludes in the last paragraph thatA. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problemB. population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgentlyC. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problemD. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problemPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based onthe following passage:(79) Extensive new studies suggestthat the world has, made extraordinary progress in reducing poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberali zation (自由化) after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, finds that the proporti on of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 .percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999. By some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agr ee that poverty has plunged in key nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. “This isa huge success for the world as a whole,”says Harvard University economist R ichard Cooper. “We are doing something right.”The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington' an event that has been troubled in recent years by protests th at the Bank and its sister institution, the International Monetary Fund (IMF国际货币基金组织), have done too little for the world's poor. (80) The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonethel ess, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be foll owed by th6se institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-- calling for open markets, freebusiness activities, and tight monetary control are working and correct.But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic. success stories as Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just "free', markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly,and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domestic industries were yotmg, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely international financial;flows. They have been open to foreign-owned factories but have often insisted that those investors share"the knowledge and skill on modem technologies,11. The word “plunged” in the firs paragraphmeansA. decreasedB. ClimbedC. increasedD. dropped into water12. From the passage, we learn that__________A.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2010.05.08（A卷）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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:The multi-billion-dollar Western pop music industry is under fire. It is being blamed by the United Nations for the dramatic rise in drug abuse worldwide, "The most worrying developmentis a culture of drug-friendliness," says the UN's International Narcotics Control Board in a report released last year.The 74-page study says the pop music, as a global industry, is by far the most influential trend-setter for young people of most cultures. "Some songs encourage people to take drugs. (78)Certain pop stars make statements and set examples as if the use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes were a normal and acceptable part of a person's lifestyle," the study says.Surprisingly, says the Board, the effect of drug-friendly pop music seems to survive despite the occasional shock of death by overdose(过量用药). "Such incidents end to be seen as an occasion to mourn (哀悼) the loss of a role model, and not an opportunity to face the deadly effect of drug use," it notes. Since the 1970s, several internationally famous singer and movie stars—including Elvis Presley, Janice Jophlin, John Belushi, Jimi Hendrix, Jonathan Melvin and Andy Gibbs—have died of either drug abuse or drug related illnesses. With the globalization of popular music, messages promoting drug abuse are now reaching beyond their countries of origin. "In most countries, the names of certain pop stars have become familiar to the members of every household," the study says.The UN study also blames the media for its description of certain drug incidents, which encourages rather than prevents drug abuse. "Over the past years, we have seen how drug abuse is increasingly regarded as being acceptable or even attractive," says Hamid Ghodse, president of the Board. "Powerful pressure groups run political campains aimed at legalizing controlled drugs," he says. Ghodse also points out that all these developments have created an environment which is tolerant (容忍的) of or even favorable to drug abuse and spoils international drug prevention efforts currently under way.The study focuses on demand reduction and prevention within an environment that has become tolerant of drug abuse. The Board calls on governments to do their legal and moral duties, and to act against the pro-drug（赞成吸毒）messages of the youth culture to which young people increasingly are being exposed.1. Which of the following statements does the author tend to agree with?A. The use of drugs for non-medicinal purposes is an acceptable part of a person's lifestyle.B. The spreading of pop music may cause drug abuse to beyond country boundaries.C. No efforts have been made to prevent the spreading of drug abuse.D. Governments have no ability at act against the pro-drug messages of the youth culture.2. The expression "under fire" in the first paragraph means ________.A. in an urgent situationB. facing some problemsC. being criticizedD. in trouble3. From the third paragraph, we learn that the youth ________.A. tend to mourn the pop stars who died of overdose as role modesB. are shocked to know even pop stars may abuse drugsC. try to face the deadly effect of drug useD. may stop abusing drugs4. Which of the following is not mentioned as tolerant of drug abuse?A. The spreading of pop music.B. The media.C. Political campaigns run by powerful pressure groups.D. The low price of some drugs.5. According to the passage, pop music ________A. has a great influence on young people of most culturesB. attracts a small number of young peopleC. is not a profitable industryD. is alone responsible for drug abusePassage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:There are many older people in the world and there will be many more. A little-known fact is that over 60 percent of the older people live in developing countries. According to the World Health Organization, by 2020 there will be 1 billion, with over 700 million living in developing countries.It is a surprising fact that the population ageing is particularly rapid in developing countries. For example, it took France 115 years for the proportion of older people to double from 7 percent to 14 percent. It is estimated to take China a mere 27 years to achieve this same increase.What are the implications of these increased numbers of older folk? (76) One of the biggest worries for governments is that the longer people live, the more likelihood there is for diseases and for disability(残疾). Attention is being paid to the need to keep people as healthy as possible, including during old age, to lessen the financial burden on the state.(77)Another significant problem is the need for the younger generations to understand and value the older people in their society. In some African countries, certainly in Asia, older people are respected and regarded as the ones with special knowledge. Yet traditions are fading away daily, which does not ensure the continued high regard of older people. As society changes, attitudes will change.Much needs to be done to get rid of age discrimination(歧视)in employment. Life-long learning programs need to be provided to enable older people to be active members in a country's development.Social security policies need to be established to provide adequate income protection for older people. Both public and private schemes are vital in order to build a suitable safety net.6. The proportion of older people________.A. is bigger in developed countries than in developing countriesB. is one-seventh of the population in developing countriesC. will increase much faster in China than in FranceD. will be sixty percent in developing countries by 20207. According to passage, which of the following are governments most worried about?A. The diseases and disability of older people.B. The longer life and good health of people.C. The loss of taxes on older people.D. The increasing respect for older people.8. It is stated directly in the passage that older people should ________.A. be treated differently in different culturesB. enjoy a similar lifestyleC. be ignored as society changesD. be valued by the yonger generations9. Which of the following measure is NOT mentioned to solve the population ageing problem?A. Getting rid of age discrimination in employment.B. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.C. Ensuring adequate income protection for older people.D. Providing free health care for sick older people.E. Supplying life-long learning programs to older people.10. The author concludes in the last paragraph that ________.A. governments have spent lots of time in solving the ageing problemB. population ageing is a hard problem, but it needs to be solved urgentlyC. people are too busy to solve the population ageing problemD. much time and effort will be lost in solving the ageing problem[NextPage]Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:(79)Extensive new studies suggest that the world has made extraordinary progress in reducing poverty in recent decades. The research suggests that the pace of economic progress has been rapid and continued for decades, built on the foundations of relative political stability, rising trade, and economic liberalization(自由化)after two world wars. One new study, published recently by the Institute for International Economics in Washington, find that the proportion of the 6.1 billion people in the world who live on $1 a day or less shrank from 63 percent in 1950 to 35 percent in 1980 and 12 percent in 1999. by some other measures, the progress has been more modest. Still, economists agree that poverty has plunged in key nations such as India and especially China, thanks to slowing population growth as well as economic freedom. "This is a huge success for the world as a whole," says Harvard University economist Richard Cooper. "We are doing something right."The news comes as the World Bank is about to open its annual meeting in Washington- an event that has been troubled in recent years by protests that the Bank and its sister Institution, the International Monetary Fund(IMF国际货币组织)，have done too little for the world's poor. (80)The new economic research will not put an end to that dispute. Vast populations remain poor, and many still question the wisdom of World Bank policies. Nonetheless, the research findings are helpful to understand what policies should be followed by those institutions and hundreds of other development groups working very hard to hasten the pace of world economic progress. If dramatic gains are under way, the present policies-calling for open markets, free business activities, and tight monetary control-are working and correct.But critics of IMF and World Bank policies maintain that such economic success stories as Japan, China, South Korea and Singapore are rooted in more than just "free" markets. These nations have managed to grow rapidly, and thereby reduce poverty, by limiting imports when their domestic industries were young, pushing exports to rich nations, and putting controls on purely international financial flows. The have been open to foreign-owned factories but have often insisted that those investors share the knowledge and skill on modern technologies.11. The word "plunged" in the first paragraph means ________.A. decreasedB. climbedC. increasedD. dropped into water12. From the passage, we learn that ______.A. World Bank has done nothing to help the poor in the worldB. IMF only helps the rich in the worldC. World Bank controls all the banks in the worldD. There are some demonstrations against World Bank in recent years13. According to this passage, in _____, the world had the largest number of poor people.A. 1999B. 1980C. 1950D. 199014. According to the author, the economy of East Asian countries grew very fast because of the following measures EXCEPT ______.A. encouraging exportB. opening up to foreign investmentsC. limiting international financial flowsD. controlling import15. The best title for this passage might be ______.A. China's Contribution to the Reduction of Poverty in the WorldB. World Bank's Extraordinary Progress in Recent DecadesC. India's Leading Role in Reducing Global PovertyD. Global Progress in Reducing PovertyPart II Vocabulary and Structure (30%)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences.
