2020年四川专升本大学英语练习题三套2020年四川专升本大学英语练习题(一)The way people hold to the belief that a fun-filled,pain free life equals happiness actually reduces their chances of ever attaining real happiness.If fun and pleasure are equal to happiness then pain must be equal to unhappiness.But in fact,the opposite is true:more often than not things that lead to happiness involve some pain.As a result,many people avoid the very attempts that are the source of true happiness.They fear the pain inevitably brought by such things as marriage,raising children,professional achievement,religious commitment(预担的义务),self-improvement.Ask a bachelor(单身汉)why he resists marriage even though he finds dating to be less and less satisfying.If he is honest he will tell you that he is afraid of making a commitment.For commitment is in fact quite painful.The single life is filled with fun,adventure,excitement.Marriage has such moments,but they are not its most distinguishing features.Couples with infant children are lucky to get a whole night’s sleep or a three -day vacation.I don’t know any parent who would choose the word fun to describe raising children.But couples who decide not to have children never know the joys of watching a child grow up or of playing with a grandchild.Understanding and accepting that true happiness has nothing to do with fun is one of the most liberating realizations.It liberates time:now we can devote more hours to activities that can genuinely increase our happiness.It liberates money: buying that new car or those fancy clothes that will do nothing to increase our happiness now seems pointless.And it liberates us from envy:we now understand that all those who are always having so much fun actually may not be happy at all.1.According to the author,a bachelor resists marriage chiefly because_____.A.he is reluctant to take on family responsibilitiesB.he believes that life will be more cheerful if he remains singleC.he finds more fun in dating than in marriageD.he fears it will put an end to all his fun adventure and excitement2.Raising children,in the author’s opinion is________.A.a moral dutyB.a thankless jobC.a rewarding taskD.a source of inevitable pain3.From the last paragraph,we learn that envy sometimes stems from______.A.hatredB.misunderstandingC.prejudiceD.Ignorance4.To understand what true happiness is one must________.A.have as much fun as possible during one’s lifetimeB.make every effort to liberate oneself from painC.put up with pain under all circumstancesD.be able to distinguish happiness from fun5.What is the author trying to tell us?A.Happiness often goes hand in hand with pain.B.One must know how to attain happiness.C.It is important to make commitments.D.It is pain that leads to happiness.参考答案:1-5ACBDA2020年四川专升本大学英语练习题(二)1.The driver drove_______hit at a big tree and the car came to a stop.A.too carelessly toB.carelessly enough toC.so carelessly that heD.so careless that he2.Everything returned to normal____nothing had happened.A.as ifB.becauseC.whenD.for3.I prefer____there doing nothing.A.working than sittingB.to work than to sitC.working to sitD.to work rather than sit4.I suppose you’re not very busy now,____?A.aren’t youB.don’t IC.are youD.do I5.__________he is thinking about now is not her health,but her safety.A.ThatB.WhatC.WhateverD.Which6.__________was expected,he performed the task with success.A.WhichB.ThatC.ItD.As7.--When can I have my car back?--I think it__________late this afternoon.A.is being finishedB.is finishedC.will have been finishedD.will be finished8.Frank put the medicine in the top drawer to make sure it would not be__________ to the kids.A.accessibleB.relativeC.sensitiveD.acceptable9.I"m afraid this painting is not by Picasso.It"s only a copy and so it"s_____.A.pricelessB.invaluableC.unworthyD.worthless10.Of the two pears,the child picked out the____one.A.smallB.smallerC.smallestD.more small参考答案解析:1.【答案】C【翻译】这个司机开车如此粗心以致于撞到了一颗大树上,车停了下来。

You should decide on the best choice.Passage One“Joe, you are a very old dog,” said policeman Fred. “Today is your birthday again. I remember you w ere 14 years old last year. But you are still the best police dog in the world!”“ARF! ARF!” barked Joe.“You are welcome,” said Fred. “Now let’s get your birthday dinner. Show me where you want to eat.”Joe led Fred down the street. Good smells came from all the eating places. But Joe walked on. At last he stopped at a small place. He smelled around the door. Then he pushed the door open.“Is this where you want to eat?” asked Fred. But Joe did not bark an answer. He put his nose to the floor and ran across the room. Then he jumped on a man at a table!“Good boy, Joe!” said Fred. Joe and Fred have looked for the robber for ten years. “And now you have found him!”Joe and Fred took the robber to the police station. Then Fred said, “All right, Joe, you have done your work. Well done! Congratulations. Now do you want that birthday dinner?” “ARF!” barked Joe, “ARF! ARF!” “Let’s go,” said Fred. “I’m hungry, too.”1. Joe is 15 years old this year.A. TrueB. False2. The police and Joe have looked for the robber for 10 years.A. TrueB. False3. In the story, Joe says “ARF! ARF!” twice.

No, he is.Passage TwoWhat a strange world this would be if everyone told the truth! Even though the whole world claim to dislike lies, it seems that lying is a universal communication style. Most of us get angry at big lies, but how about truth-telling in our private life? Should we always tell the truth to husbands, wives, mothers, fathers and children?Public opinion polls find that only about one in ten Americans say they never tell a lie. Some studies showed that each student actually told about two lies a day. Half of all adults interviewed in a radio poll last year admitted they had told a lie they regretted, and many said they had been deeply hurt by a lie someone told them.Researchers asked some people to describe the lies they told over a period of weeks. They nearly all stressed that what they told were white lies, and denied having told serious lies.We tell more different lies to men than to women. Men and women tell more lies about themselves when talking to men, but more lies about others when talking to women. Men are particularly likely to lie about themselves. Women tell more lie than men, but only because women tell white lies in order to make others feel comfortable.Surveys show that nearly everyone bel ieves most people are truthful. That’s why people are so bad at detecting lies. Psychologists have even tested the lie-detecting ability of police officers, judges, customs inspectors and others whose jobs need to detect lies. In these studies, these people were no better at detecting lies than ordinary people.6. Men tell fewer lies than women.A. TrueB. False7. We lie differently to different types of people.A. TrueB. False8. What is the main idea expressed in the passage?A. Lies must be avoided, though nearly impossible.B. People should feel ashamed of telling lies.C. Lying is actually a common phenomenon in social communication.D. People are bad at detecting lies.9. According to the passage, we can infer that .A. people tend to claim that they do lie, but not out of ill intentionsB. lying shouldn’t have become a universal communication styleC. college students are No. 1 liarsD. those who are not good at detecting lies should not be police officers, customs inspectors and others whose job needs to detect lies10. The word “detect” in the third line of the last paragraph is closest in meaning to.A. remindB. rememberC. cautionD. noticePassage ThreePeople all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man’s release of completely new and oftenartificial substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance, such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.The whole industrial process which makes many of the goods and machines we need and use in our daily lives, is bound to create a number of waste products which upset the environmental balance, or the ecological balance. Many of these waste products can be prevented or disposed of sensibly, but clearly while more and more new and complex goods are produced there will be new, dangerous wastes to be disposed of, for example, the waste products from nuclear power stations. Many people, therefore, see pollution as only part of a larger and more complex problem, that is, the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods. Others again see the problem mainly in connection with agriculture, where new methods are helping farmers grow more and more on their land to feed our ever-increasing populations. However, the land itself is gradually becoming worn out as it is being used, in some cases, artificial fertilizers cannot restore the balance.Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up three or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metals and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy things we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess consumption and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives.11. The main cause of pollution is the release of artificial or natural substances into the environment.A. TrueB. False12. In the writer’s view, the more new goods, the less pollution there will be.A. TrueB. False13. Many people see pollution as only part of .A. our daily lifeB. the environmental balanceC. the consumption of goods by manD. the whole process of industrial production and consumption of goods14. Much of the pollution could be controlled if only .A. people would pay more attention to the problemB. governments would take effective measuresC. all sides concerned would make more effortsD. farmers would use less artificial fertilizers15. People can help solve the problem of pollution by .A. urging their governments to control litter and wasteB. making anti-pollution advertisementsC. cutting down the use of oil and other oil productsD. reducing unnecessary buying, over-consumption and careless disposal of wastes答案:Part I Vocabulary and Structure1-5 BDADC 6-10 CACAC 11-15 DBCBA 16-20 ABABD Part II Reading Comprehension1-5 AABDA 6-10 AACAD 11-15 ABDCD。

However, he foresaw its universally destructive powers too late. Nobel preferred not to be remembered as the inventor of dynamite, so in 1895, just two weeks before his death, he created a fund to be used for awarding prizes to people who had made worthwhile contributions to mankind. Originally there were five awards: literature, physics, chemistry, medicine, and peace. Economics was added in 1968, just sixty-seven years after the first award ceremony.Nobel’s original legacy of nine million dollars was invested, and the interest on this sum i s used for the awards which vary from $30,000 to $125,000.Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel’s death, the awards (gold medal, illuminated diploma, and money) are presented to the winners.

Relations with the neighboring and in some ways similar civilization of Mesopotamia were always close, though often hostile. Syria and Palestine suffered much in biblical times from the competition of the two world powers of the day. For long, Egypt ruled over Syria but gradually its power declined and it was itself conquered, first by the Assyrians (663 B. C.) and then for a longer term by the Persians (525-332 B.

C.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:How men first learned to invent words is unknown. In other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thoughts and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agree upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to represent those sounds, and which could be written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.The power of words, then lies in their associations—the things they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something to us increase.41.How language began is ________.a. a legend handed down from the pastb. a matter that is hidden and secretc. a question difficult to answerd. a problem not yet solved42.Why men invented certain sounds to express thoughts and actions was that ________.a. they could agree upon certain thingsb. they could communicate with each otherc. they could write them downd. they could combine them43.The meaning of words comes from their ________.a. lettersb. differencesc. soundsd. associations44.By “association”, the author means ________.a. a joining of ideas in the mindsb. a special qualityc. a strange featured. an appearance which is puzzling45.Which of the following statements is true?a.The more we read and learn, the more ignorant we are.b.The more we read and learn, the more sensitive we become.c.The more we read and learn, the more learned we are.d.The more we read and learn, the more confused we will be.Part III Cloze (15%)Cotton, like silk, was discovered and made (46)________ cloth by man before the historical period began.

Taking the train is a way of life. As the fleet of European trains continues to cut the time between major cities in the bid to hit the magic 125 miles per hour mark, airlines are halting or diminishing short-haul service and concentrating on the longer runs.z.In the U.

On Liberty Island there is a very special statue called the Statue of Liberty. It is one of the most famous sights in the world.The Statue of Liberty was gift from the people of France to the people of the United States. The statue was made by a French sculptor named Frederic Auguste Bartholdi. The inner support system was designed by Gustave Eiffel, the same man who made the famous Eiffel Tower in Paris.Liberty, of course, means freedom, and the Statue of Liberty was given to the United States to celebrate the one-hundredth anniversary of U. S. independence from England. The statue was built in France, taken apart piece by piece, and then rebuilt in the United States. It was opened for the public on October 28, 1886.As you might expect, the statue is very big. Visitors can ride an elevator from the ground to the bottom of the statue.

Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly by night? Tests with artificial stars have proved that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.A dove had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under an artificial star-filled sky. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the position of the artificial stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation. When the stars are hidden by clouds, they apparently find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coast lines, and river courses. But when it’s too dark to see these, the doves circle helplessly, unable to find their way.ao.The reasons why birds don’t get lost on long flights ________.a. have been known to scientists for yearsb. have only recently been discoveredc. are known by everyoned. will probably remain a mysteryap.During daylight hours, birds ________.a. fly aimlesslyb. rely on landmarksc. use sun for guidanced. are more likely to get lostaq.By “his outdoor cousins” the author means ________.a. other experimentersb. the other doves of the same broodc. doves under the natural skyd. other birds in generalar.The experiment with the dove indicated that ________.a.birds have to be taught to navigateb.a bird that has been caged will not fly long distancesc.some birds cannot fly at nightd.some birds seem to follow the stars when they fly at nightas.In total darkness, doves ________.a. use landmarksb. don’t know which way to flyc. fly back homed. wait for the stars to appearPart III Cloze (15%)We got up early this morning and (46)________ a long walk after breakfast.
