And I will never 28 their names or positions because I respect their privacy.

Because of my work location being near to a(n) 32client, I occasionally ran into this person. What was 33 was that this person continued to say how I had helped him gain a level of 34.

The business people in Shanghai sleep the longest, seven hours and 28 minutes. Those in New York sleep six hours and 35 minutes, the second shortest after Tokyo.“I think business people in Tokyo may just be too busy,” said a spokeswoman of the survey. Many Japanese business people are forced into long days by hours of overtime followed by afterhours (业余时间的) drinking sessions (聚会) and then a long commute (上下班交通) home, although the survey found that commutes in New York were about equally long. Tokyo trains in both mornings and evenings are full of sleepy commuters. Some even manage to nap standing up as they hold on to overhead rails.“In Shanghai, people simply seem to go to sleep earlier. Everyone in the five cities of the survey gets up around the same time in the mornings, between 6:30 and 7:00,”said the spokeswoman. “In Tokyo, people seem to do things after they get home as well, like playing computer games. They don’t sleep until after midnight.”Not surprisingly, when asked what was the most important in their lives, Japanese gave “sleep”the top ranking －the same as their Parisian peers who nevertheless got nearly seven hours of sleep on weekdays. By contrast, both New Yorkers and Shanghai residents said “time with their family” came first.41. According to the survey, the business people in Shanghai sleep about _____.A. 5 hoursB. 6.5 hoursC. 7.5 hoursD. 8 hours42. The business people spend about the same time on the road in _____.A. Tokyo and ShanghaiB. Paris and StockholmC. Paris and ShanghaiD. Tokyo and New York43. What do business people from the five cities have in common?A. They are all too busy.B. They live a life of leisure.C. They get up around the same time.D. They spend a long time on commute.44. One reason why people in Tokyo lack sleep is that _____.A. they go to bed too lateB. they usually get up too earlyC. they often drink and danceD. they like working on computers45. What is the purpose of the passage?A. To educate.B. To inform.C. To persuade.D. To instruct.BGrowing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind. People always seemed to feel comfortable in her presence. For years, she was a volunteer in our community. I loved going to the local nursing home with her where she taught a ceramic (陶瓷的) class.On one summer day, Mama told me to get changed and meet her at the car. I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have to ruin everything?I imagined the cool lake water. Irritated, I climbed into the car and slammed (砰地关) the door shut. We sat in silence. I was too upset to make conversation.“Tasha, would you l ike to know where we are going?” Mama asked calmly.“No,” I said.“We are g oing to volunteer at a children’s shelter today. I have been there before and I thin k it would benefit you,” she explained.When we reached the shelter, Mama rang the doorbell. Moments later, we were greeted by a woman. She led us to the front room where all of the children were playing. I noticed a baby whose body was scarred with iron marks. I was told it was because she wouldn’t stop crying. The majority of the children had noticeable physical scars. Others hid their emotional wounds.As I took in my surroundings, I felt a gentle tug on my shirt. I looked down to see a little girl looking up at me. “Hi. You want to play dolls with me?” she asked. I looked over at Mama for reinforcement. She smiled and nodded. I turned back and said, “Sure.” Her tiny hand reached up and held mine as if to comfort me.My mom taught me a valuable lesson that summer. I returned to the shelter with her several times. During those visits, some of the children shared their troubled pasts with me and I learned to be grateful for what I had. Today as I try to instill (逐渐灌输) these values in my own child, I reflect back to that experience. It was a time that I will never forget.46. The author admired her mom for _____.A. her kindness to othersB. her excellent teachingC. her quality of honestyD. her positive attitude to life47. According to Paragraph 3, when she was asked to go out with her mom, the authorwas _____.A. excitedB. angryC. surprisedD. worried48. From the passage we learn most children in the shelter _____.A. were often punished by staffB. weren’t allowed to go outsideC. were once treated badlyD. all suffered from mental illness49. The underlined word “reinforcement”in the passage is closest in meaning to“_____”.A. truthB. helpC. comfortD. support50. What lesson did the author learn from her experience?A. To value what you take for granted.B. To play with children is fun.C. To love others is to love yourself.D. To do as what your parents do.COne of the keys to being successful in what you do is persistence (坚持不懈). Once you have determined exactly what you want to achieve, you must take massive action on a constant basis in order to succeed.One of the things you’ll notice on your journey towards your goal are roadblocks. That is, you will come across obstacle (障碍) that seem to jump out of nowhere in an attempt to stop your progress. Actually, they are a part of life. Everyone would have every success they ever wanted if there were no obstacles. Your job is to be persistent and work through those obstacles. If you find little or no obstacles along the way, chances are you are not really challenging yourself. And when you do reach your goal, you won’t experience the feeling of “sweet success”. Make your goal a challenging one！If you take the time to study any successful person, you will learn that the vast majority of them have had more “failures”than they have had “successes”. This is because successful people are persistent; the more they stumble (绊倒)and fall, the more they get right back up and get going again. On the other hand, people that don’t get back up and try again, never reach success. For example, Walt Disney was turned down 302 times before he got financing for his dream of creating the “Happiest Place on Earth”. Today, due to his persistence, millions of people have shared “the joy of Disney”. Colonel Sanders spent two years driving across the United States looking for restaurants to buy his chicken recipe. He was turned down l,009 times! How successful is Kentucky Fried Chicken today！Having known these facts, keep in mind that you must constantly reevaluate your circumstances and the approach you are using to reach your goal. Sometimes you have to modify (更改) your approach along the way. Every time you do something you learn from it, and therefore find a better way to do it the next time.51. We know from Paragraph 2 that the author seems to believe that _____.A. challenges are rewardingB. no chances, no successesC. failures are challengingD. goals come from challenges52. The reason why persistent people are more likely to succeed is that they _____.A. experience a lot of failuresB. are born to be very stubbornC. have great ambitions in mindD. don’t g ive up in face of failure53. Why did Colonel Sanders spend two years driving across the United States?A. To count the number of restaurants in America.B. To taste different foods and find special recipes.C. To find restaurants to buy his recipe for fried chicken.D. To open more Kentucky Fried Chicken chain stores.54. What does the author advise us to do in the last paragraph?A. Confirm our goal is practical.B. Modify our approach from time to time.C. Change our circumstances constantly.D. Learn from our past mistakes.55. What would be the best title for the passage?A. Accept yourself and obtain success.B. Never give up and achieve success.C. Change your goals on the road to success.D. Always learn from successful people.D根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

新视野大学英语考查卷A及答案
新 乡 医 学 院 2011—2012学年第一学期 2011级新视野大学英语考查卷A (2011/12/31) （本试卷采用百分制，按55%折合入期末总评成绩，听力考试成绩占总评成绩的25%， 听力平时成绩、精读平时成绩各占总评成绩的10%。
） PART I READING COMPREHENSION (30 points, 15×2 ) Directions: There are 3 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D), and you should decide which the best choice is. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 1-5 are based on the following passage. For a long time women with HIV were ignored because the focus was totally on HIV men. The gay community （同性恋） was very much in sight and vocal(呼声高的)and successfully got support for its cause. Now we are rapidly approaching the point where about one half of all AIDS cases in the world are women. But no one is taking this dangerously high level of infection among women seriously enough. Women usually have a worse time dealing with HIV than men do. In most cases, the woman is taking care of children as well as hersick partner. She may not even have time to take care of herself.The HIV-positive woman ends up shouldering the family as well as her own personal problems. Men, however, are usually the ones who have insurance(保险), income and access to doctors. They get care. Women often do not.The discrimination(歧视) against HIV-positive women is simply terrible. They are likely to be more inactive than men in the home and workplace because too many people think that women are the cause of the disease. This is not at all true. They get it from a man. They don’t just simply have HIV. Of course, there’s a social discrimination against all people with HIV. They are scared that other people will know they are HIV-positive and that they will, therefore, be discriminated against. For example, it’s very different for people with HIV to travel. They are not allowed to enter many countries, including the United States, China and Russian.The biggest difficulty an HIV-positive woman must face is the isolation(孤立). Once the woman knows she’s HIV-positive, she lives in fear that other people will find out. She’s so frightened she will go into hiding, into an isolated place by herself. It’s not at all uncommon to meet a woman who has been HIV-positive for nearly 10 years and has never told anyone, except the doctor. And the resulting stress is enough to make her sick. But HIV-positive women who get support, who can discuss their trouble and then do something about it—whether that means taking better care of themselves or going to the United Nations to struggle for their rights—are likely to live longer. Active women don’t die out of shame in a corner. This happens to too many HIV-positive women.1. Women with HIV were ignored for a long time because .A. their effort to attract attention was not as successful as the HIV men’sB. they often lived in a community that was hardly noticed by othersC. HIV men were the only concern over a long timeD. they failed to get support2. Which of the following statements is not trueA. HIV-positive women make up nearly half of all AIDS cases in the world.B. The gay community succeeded in getting support.C. The high level of infection among women has been taken seriously.D. There is social discrimination against all people with HIV.3. According to the passage, it’s difficult for the women to dealwith HIV but not because .often lose their jobs after other people find out they are HIV-positiveB. they usually have the family problemC. they often have no access to doctorsD. they have little time left to take care of themselves4. Countries such as the United States and China are mentioned in the article in order to show that .A. there are more AIDS cases in those countriesB. it is not convenient for HIV-positive people to travelC. they often have no access to doctorsD. people have little time left to take care of themselves5. Which of the following does the passage show to us that activewomen don’t doA. Get support from others.B. Discuss their trouble with their doctors only.C. Struggle for their rights.D. Take better care of themselves.Passage TwoQuestions 6-10 are based on the following passage.Valentine’s Day（情人节）was the time my father chose to show his love for the special people in his life. Over the years I fondly thought of him as my “Valentine Man”.At the age of six, on Valentine’s Day morning, I got a card signed “Love, Dad”for the first time and a gift of ring with small piece of red glass. As I grew older, the gifts gave way to heart-shaped boxes filled with my favorite chocolates and always included a special card signed “Love, Dad”. Year by year, the cards seemed less important, and I thought the valentine（情人节卡片或礼物等）would always be there. I had placed my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “important others”, and “Love,Dad” just didn’t seem quite enough.If my father knew then that he had been replaced, he never let it show. If he sensed any disappointment over valentines that didn’t arrive from me, he just tried that much harder to create a positive atmosphere（气氛）, giving me an extra hug and doing what he could to make my day a little brighter.On Valentine’s Day eight years ago I received a card addressed to me in my mother’s handwriting. On the side, my mother had printed “Happy Valentine’s Day” and my father had signed “Love, Dad”. It was the kind of card that put tears in my eyes because I knew this would be the last I would receive from him.His final card remains on my desk today. It’s a remainder of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a tradition of love with simple acts of understanding and had the ability to express happiness to the people in his life.6. Why did the writer think of her father as her “Valentine Man”over the yearsA. Her father had given her a valentine on Valentine’s Day toshow his love, understanding and happiness.B. She had placed her hopes and dreams in receiving cards and giftsfrom her father on Valentine’s Day.C. Her father created a positive atmosphere (气氛) and made herday brighter on Valentine’s Day.D. She missed her father very much on Valentine’s day after he died.7. When the writer grew older, her father’s card seemed lessimportant because .A. she was no longer interested in Valentine’s DayB. she thought her father’s Valentine wasn’t enough and hopedto get more from othersC. her boyfriend took the place of her fatherD. she did not like the design of the cards her father sent her8. When the writer was disappointed about the valentines she did notreceive, her father .A. gave her another heart shaped box filled with her favorite chocolates.B. tried to talk with her about something elseC. told her to place her hopes and dreams away from othersD. comforted her by doing what he could to make her happy9. Why was the writer’s last valentine written in her mother’s writingA. Her mother wanted to show her love too.B. Her father was so busy that he had no time to mail the card.C. Her father was too ill to mail a card.D. Her father wanted to give her a surprise.10. The writer put her father’s final card on her desk in order to .A. remember her father and his loveB. show it to her colleagues (同事)C. think of the past life of her fatherD. get encouragement from her fathersPassage ThreeQuestions 11-15 are based on the following passage.As we have seen, the focus of medical care in our society has been shifting from curing disease to preventing disease –especially in terms of changing our many unhealthy behaviors, such as poor eating habits, smoking, and failure to exercise. The line of thought involved in this shift can be pursued further. Imagine a person who is about the right weight , but does not eat very nutritious(有营养的) foods, who feels OK but exercises only occasionally, who goes to work every day, but is not an outstanding worker, who drinks a few beers at home most nights but does not drive while drunk , and who has no chest pains or abnormal blood counts, but sleeps a lot and often feels tired. This person is not ill. He may not even be at risk for any particular disease. But we can imagine that this person could be a lot healthier.The field of medicine has not traditionally distinguished between someone who is merely “ not ill” and someone who is in excellent health and pays attention to the body’s special needs. Both types have simply been called “well”. In recent years, however, somehealth specialists have begun to apply the terms “well” and “wellness” only to those who are actively striving to maintain and improve their health. People who are well are concerned with nutrition and exercise and they make a point of monitoring their body's condition. Most important, perhaps, people who are well take active responsibility for all matters related to their health. Even people who have a physical disease or handicap (缺陷) may be "well," in this new sense, if they make an effort to maintain the best possible health they can in the face of their physical limitations. "Wellness" may perhaps best be viewed not as a state that people can achieve, but as an ideal that people can strive for. People who are well are likely to be better able to resist disease and to fight disease when it strikes. And by focusing attention on healthy ways of living, the concept of wellness can have a beneficial impact on the ways in which people face the challenges of daily life.11. Today medical care is placing more stress on______.A. keeping people in a healthy physical conditionB. monitoring patients' body functionsC. removing people's bad living habitsD. ensuring people's psychological well-being12. In the first paragraph, people are reminded that_____.A. good health is more than not being illB. drinking, even if not to excess, could be harmfulC. regular health checks are essential to keeping fitD. prevention is more difficult than cure13. Traditionally, a person is considered "well" if he ______.A. does not have any unhealthy living habitsB. does not have any physical handicapsC. is able to handle his daily routinesD. is free from any kind of disease14. According to the author, the true meaning of "wellness" is forpeople _____.A. to best satisfy their body's special needsB. to strive to maintain the best possible healthC. to meet the strictest standards of bodily healthD. to keep a proper balance between work and leisure15. According to what the author advocates, which of the followinggroups of people would be considered healthyA. People who have strong muscles as well as slim figures.B.

It is celebrated by hundreds of millions of people around the world. For my family, it is considered the greatest holiday of the year.Every Easter my brothers and I would wake up early and, like Christmas morning, run downstairs to see what surprises were waiting for us. We were always excited when the Easter Bunny(兔子), who is like Father Christmas, came and left us a basket of candy. It’s wonderful. It is like there is a miracle every Easter morning.Our mother, however, would not let us eat the chocolates like we wanted. The chocolate bunnies, and candy eggs would have to wait. Instead, we would have to get dressed in our new clothes.Then my family would go to church. After church we would go to an elder family members’ house for a feast(盛会). My mother’s family came to the US from East ern Europe, so we wouldoften eat many traditional dishes. My favorite was ham and a special potato salad. We usually had 20 or more family members at the dinner.After dinner my cousins, brothers and I would go outside. While we were sleeping the night before, our parents had hidden plastic eggs throughout the back yard. We would always have a contest to see who could find the most eggs. The winner would get a prize. It was our annual Easter Egg Hunt. Sometimes, in summer, we would discover an egg we missed on Easter.36. When does Easter come this year?A. On April the fourth.B.

What does the passage mainly talk about?A. An introduction to Easter.B. Easter traditions.C. A moving story.D. An Easter Egg Hunt.( D )―Fish stories‖ are stories of the gre atest fish that a fisherman has almost caught, but for some reason, the fish always get away. Usually, these stories do not have much truth to them. One of the biggest fish stories in history was about a whale.In 1891, a ship hunting for whales in the South Atlantic Ocean found a very large whale. While the hunters were trying to kill the whale, it sank two small boats. One man drowned, and another man, James Bartley, was lost in the ocean. However, after the hunters finally killed the whale, they cut open the whale’s stomach and found Mr Bartley inside. He was not dead!Several weeks later, Mr Bartley seemed to have gotten over his terrible experience. The only thing he could remember was that while he was inside the whale, it was very hot. The liquid (液体) from the whale’s stomach had turned all of his skin snow white. Mr Bartley had to live withthe effect from the whale for the rest of his life.Today, many people have heard about the strange experience of Mr Bartley and do not buy it. Not one real fact has been found to prove that the events ever took place described by the sailors. No scientist or newspaper reporter was ever able to talk to Mr Bartley, and all of the stories told in magazines about Mr Bartley’s experience were explained by other sailors on the boat. Mr Bartley was probably not even a real person at all.In 1928, after the captain (船长) of the whaling ship had died, one man asked the captain’s wife about Mr Bartley’s story. The wife said that no man who had sailed on her husband’s ship was ever swallowed by a whale.However, this has not stopped James Bartley’s story from being repeated, and many people today still believe that it is true.41. What made Mr Bartley’s skin white?A. The ocean water.B. The whale’s teeth.C. The heat inside the whale.D. The liquid in the whale’s stomach.42. Who may have talked to Mr Bartley?A. A scientist.B. The captain’s wife.C. The sailors on the ship.D. A newspaper reporter.43. The captain’s wife said that .A. the story was not trueB. her husband told her the storyC. the whale was never foundD. Mr Bartley didn’t work for her husband44. Today, many people have heard about the strange experience of Mr Bartley and do not buy it.Here ―buy‖ means .A. 明白B. 相信C. 购买D. 证明45. In paragraph 4 and paragraph 5 we may know that Mr Bartley .A. became a writer laterB. died when he was youngC. told his story to a magazine reporterD. was not even a real person at all第II 卷非选择题（共51分）四、填空（共16小题；每小题1分，满分16分）A) 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使句子意思完整正确。

My dad was a fisherman. He worked hard and stayed out until he caught enough 43 to feed the family nearly every day. When the weather was bad he would 44 me to school.

I was 12 years old, and my dad would still kiss me goodbye!I remember the day when I decided I was too 47 for a goodbye kiss. When we got to the school and came to a stop, he had his usual big smile. He started to lean (倾斜) toward me, but I put my hand up and 48 , “No, Dad.” It was the first time I had ever talked to him that way. He had a surprised look on his face for a long time, and his 49 started to be wet. He turned and looked out of the windshield (挡风玻璃). “You’re50 ,” he said.“You are a big boy—a man.I won’t kiss you any more.”It wasn’t long after that when my dad went out to 51 and never came back.

However, many people in Asia and Africa don't have enough clean water to use. The World Health Organization reports that almost 4,000 children die each day of dirty water or lack (缺乏) of water.Farmers use 70-85% of the world fresh water to produce food. People usually don't pay much attention to how much water industry(工业) uses, but you may be surprised to know that industry uses 59% of the water in developed countries.Home use takes up(占据) only 8% in the world. But as cities grow, more water will be used. The local government has to try to make people use less water.In 60% of European cities, people are saving water by using less. They even keep waste wafer for other use.In Australia, the government has encouraged people to collect rainwater and recycle water from showers for a second use.The US Environmental Protection Agency has made a water saving program to encourage families and businesses to check their water use and save more water. Scientists and the UN are looking for good water management as the key to solving the problem. We can all work together to protect our fresh water in our daily life.（）53. In developed countries, most water is used by industry.（）54. People in Asia have enough clean water to use.（）55. To save water, Australians and Europeans both choose to recycle water for a second use.（）56. According to the passage, scientists have found good ways to deal with water problems.（）57. Home use of water will increase because of the growing of cities.BGerms(细菌) are everywhere.
