全国高校网络教育公共基础课统一考试大学英语（A）模拟试卷（2010年修订版）Test 6（根据全国高校网络教育考试委员会2011年1月新颁考试大纲和题型进行了相应调整）Information for the Examinees:This examination consists of FOUR parts. They are:Part Ⅰ: Reading Comprehension (30 points, 25 minutes)Part Ⅱ: Vocabulary and Grammar (30 points, 25 minutes)Part Ⅲ: Translation (20 points, 10 minutes)Part IV: Writing (20 points, 30 minutes)The total marks for this examination is 100 points. Time allowed for completing this examination is 90 minutes).Section I: Reading Comprehension [30 points]Part 1: Questions 1-5 are based on this part. (15 points)Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C and D.Since World War II, there has been a clearly discernible trend, especially among the growing group of college students, toward early marriage. Many youths begin dating in the first stages of adolescence, “go steady” through high school, and marry before their formal education has been completed. However, emotional maturity is no respecter of birthday; it does not arrive automatically at twenty-one or twenty-five. Some achieve it surprisingly early, while others never do, even in three score years and ten.Many students are marrying as an escape, not only from an unsatisfying home life, but also from their own personal problems of isolation and loneliness. And it can almost be put down as s dictum that any marriage seldom solves one’s problems, more often, it merely makes them worse. Furthermore, it is doubtful whether the home is an institution that is capable of carrying all that the young are seeking to put into it. Young people correctly understand that their parents are wrong in believing that “success” is the ultimate good, but they erroneously believe that they themselves have found the true center of life’s meaning. Their expectations of marriage are essentially utopian and therefore incapable of fulfillment. They want too much, and disappointments are often bound to follow.Shall we, then, join the chorus of “Miseries” over early marriage? One cannot generalize: allearly marriage are not bad any more than all later ones are good. Satisfactory marriages are determined not by time, but by the emotional maturity of the partners. Therefore, each case must be judged on its own merits. If the early marriage is not an escape, if it is entered into with relatively few illusions or false expectations, and if it is economically feasible, why not? Good marriages can be made from sixteen to sixty, and so are bad ones. (301 words)1. According to this article the trend toward early marriage ______.A. was the result of the Great Depression of the 1930’sB. could not be easily determinedC. is one that could be clearly seenD. is a result of the emotional maturity of the young2. The author suggests that many of today’s early marriage are a result of ______.A. escapismB. theological dictumC. lack of formal educationD. convenience3. More often than not, early marriage will ______.A. not affect one’s problemsB. solve a person’s problemsC. intensify one’s problemsD. ease one’s problems4. The author states that the home as an institution is ______.A. overratedB. unworthy of worshipC. a god who can grant everything that you wish forD. probably not capable of being what many young people expect it to be5. Many young people who marry early believe that ______.A. their parents have found the true meaning of lifeB. they have found the true center of life’s meaningC. “success” is the ultimate goodD. to succeed is not at all importantPart 2: Questions 6-10 are based on this part. (15 points)Read the following passage and choose the best answer from A, B, C and D.It was 1985, and Rafe Esquith was beginning his third year of teaching in Los Angeles public schools. He faced a class of 40 sixth-graders from low-income homes where English rarely was spoken, and the best reader among them was two years below grade level.But to everyone’s surprise, he decided to teach them Shakespeare.Five families agreed to let their children play “Macbeth”for two hours after school. This proved to be so much fun that, within weeks, Esquith had 28 kids happily soaking up the drama of blood and betrayal in medieval Scotland. They were learning many words they had never heard before.But when Esquith asked a school district supervisor for official approval, he received this note: “Mr. Esquith, it is not appropriate that you stay after school to teach Shakespeare. It would be better if you did something with the children that is academic.”It would not be the last time that the narrow thinking of big-city school administration got in Esquith’s way. Yet the bearded, 6-foot-tall cyclone has proved that a teacher who thinks very big-much harder lessons, larger projects, extra class time can help disadvantaged children in ways most educators never imagine.This was difficult at first, until he stumbled upon a concept of teaching that is at the core ofhis success. American children, even those from hardworking immigrant cultures, have in Esquith’s view been wrongly taught that learning should always be fun, but teachers who think hard lessons are bad for kids from low-income homes. When faced with something difficult, such students don’t know what to do.The Declaration of Independence says Americans are entitled to the pursuit of happiness, but the emphasis in public schooling has been on the happiness, he believes. “What happened to pursuit?” Esquith said. So he has created an entirely new universe in his classroom, cherishing effort and the slogan, “There Are No Shortcuts”.As for their own dramatic performances, Esquith got around the original ban on his after- school “Macbeth”rehearsals by switching to Thornton Wilder’s “Our Town”. When that class finally performed the Shakespeare play, a school district supervisor showed up. The high-ranking district administrator came up afterwards and shook his hand. “Rafe”, she said, “I’ve never seen Shakespeare done better.”(376 words)6. It can be learned from the passage that Esquith’s students ______.A. liked the traditional teaching betterB. were relatively poor in intelligenceC. were mainly from immigrant familiesD. refused to cooperate with the new teacher7. At first, Esquith’s Shakespeare-teaching ______.A. won the support of the school authorityB. got slow response from the school authorityC. did not draw attention from the school authorityD. was not allowed by the school authority8. It is implied that most educator ______.A. fail to realize the potential of disadvantaged studentsB. fail to introduce fun into the learning of disadvantaged studentsC. are reluctant to admit the unfair treatment to disadvantaged studentsD. are unaware of the difficulty faced by disadvantaged students9. Esquith’s principle of teaching is different from the general one in that ______.A. he insists on giving harder lessons to more advanced studentsB. he places greater emphasis on hard work in students’ learningC. he pays less attention to students’ academic performancesD. he dismisses the concept of extra homework for students10. What is the main idea of the passage?A. An inspiring teacher wins the love and respect of his students.B. An experienced teacher contributes to the school and the students.C. An innovative teacher makes changes in the students.D. An optimistic teacher helps build confidence in the students.Section II: Vocabulary and Grammar [30 points]Part 1: Questions 11- 20 are based on this section.

Much of the blood on the street flows essentially from uncivil(不文明的) behavior of drivers who refuse to respect the legal and moralrights of others. So the killing on the road may be regarded as a social problem.In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people. Just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality(道德) that carelessness is no excuse when one's actions could bring death or damage to others. A minority of the killers go even beyond carelessness to total negligence(疏忽).Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents are due to the mental condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort drivers'reactions, slow their judgment, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one's emotions under control.Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violatetraffic regulations, they are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents; and many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basic rules of the road.Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic road- worthiness inspections. In addition, speed limits have beenlowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has decreased. But accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the road.25． What is the author's main purpose in writing the passage?A．To show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.B．To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walkers.C．To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solutions.D．To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving.a social problem because ______.A．autos have become most destructive to mankindB．people usually pay little attention to law and moralityC．civilization brings much harm to peopleD．the lack of virtue is becoming more severe27． Why does the author mention the mental condition of the driver in Paragraph 3?A．To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents.B．To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy.is a problem to nearly everyone at some time. A person may be awake for an hour in the middle of the night and then, next morning, feel that he hardly slept all night. Normally, worrying about notgetting enough sleep is the worst aspect of most insomnia. If insomnia is recurrent, however, it is important to find its possible causes and try to correct them, with the help of a doctor if necessary.A large number of simple factors may make it difficult for someone to fall asleep or remain asleep. His mattress may be toosoft or too hard. The bedroom itself may be overheated or too cold. If it is not dark enough, or too noisy, this may cause difficultyin sleeping. Eating shortly before going to bed may also be responsible for insomnia. Stimulating drinks, such as tea or coffee, can also keep people awake.Inability to fall asleep is sometimes a symptom of emotional or mental disorders. Insomnia may also be caused by pain and, very rarely, it can be a symptom of a physical disease.The cause of insomnia may be easy to correct. The sufferer should check the mattress, bedroom temperature, and make any necessary changes, He should relax for an hour or two before bedtime, perhaps by reading a book, watching television or taking a warm bath. If he wakes during the night, he should try turning on the light and reading for a while. Above all, he should try not to worry about sleeplessness.If necessary, a doctor may prescribe tranquillizers(镇静剂) or sleeping pills. Take only the dosage he prescribes; any more is dangerous.30． What is insomnia?A．A problem nearly everyone has ever had.B．The phenomenon people stay up all night long.C．A physical disease.D．One fails to fall asleep or easily wakes up in the midnight.A．Adjust the temperature of one's bedroom.B．Take some sleepingpills before one goes to sleep.C．Try to turn on the light and do some reading.D．Not to get too worried about sleeplessness.32． Which of the following statement is true according to the text?instructors for posts of one-year duration at the English EducationCenter beginning April 2005.Qualifications:Bachelor's degree, native English proficiency, and teaching experience required; TEFL certification preferred; daily conversational ability in Japanese preferred.Duties:Full-time work teaching communicative English to first and second year students.

The tired mind gathers new energy, and the memory improves. Some adults require little sleep; others need eight to ten hours in every twenty-four hours. Infants(婴儿) sleep sixteen to eighteen hours daily, the amount gradually diminishing as they grow older. Young students may need twelve hours; university students may need ten. A worker with a physically demanding job may also need ten, whereas an executive working under great pressure may manage on six to eight. Many famous people have little sleep. Napoleon Bonaparte, Thomas Edison and Charles Darwin apparently averaged only four to six hours a night.Whatever your individual need, you can be sure that by the age of thirty you will have slept for a total of more than twelve years. By that age you will also have developed a sleep routine: a favorite hour, a favorite bed, a favorite position, and a rule you need to follow in order to rest comfortably.Investigators have tried to find out how long a person can go without sleep. Several people have reached more than 115 hours--nearly five days. Whatever the limit, it is absolute. Animals kept awake for from five to eight days have died of exhaustion. Thelimit for human beings is probably about a week.36． By writing this passage, the writer intends to tell usthat______.A．sleep is important for good mental and physicalhealthB．a light sleep is as restful as a deep sleepC．memory is improved during sleepD．sleep is relatively unimportant for human beings37． From the amount of sleep Napoleon, Edison, and Darwin required, we can conclude______.A．that they were famousB．that they wereexecutivesC．that they wereintelligentD．None of the above38． The amount of sleep required may______.A．tire an individual mindB．help infants grow olderC．apply pressure on anexecutiveD．depend on an individualage39． If a person is not allowed to follow his own sleep routine, he will probably______.A．never fallasleepB．not sleepwellC．lose hismemoryD．begin todaydream40． The author implies that if human beings are kept awake for more than a week the result______.A．is hard to imagineB．will probably be a mentalbreakdownC．is difficult to describeD．will probably be deadthese may have a thousand connections. Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with human-like ability, but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace we can be less sure. Quite soon, in only 10 or 20 years perhaps, we will be able to assemble a machine as complex as the human brain, and if we can we will. It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right software (软件)or by altering the architecture but that too will happen.I think it is certain that in decades, not centuries, machines of silicon (硅) will arise first to rival and then exceed their human ancestors. Once they exceed us they will be capable of their own design. In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves. Silicon will have ended carbon's long control. And wewill no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe.As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale we may use them to expand our frontiers, first on earth through their ability to withstand environments, harmful to ourselves. Thus, deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined. Further ahead, by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide, the construction of a vast, mancreated world in space, home to thousands or millions of people, will be within our power.41． In what way can we make a machine intelligent?A．By making it work in such environments as deserts, oceans or space.B．By working hard for 10 or 20 years.C．By either properly programming it or changing its structure.D．By reproducing it.42． What does the writer think about machines with human-like ability?A．He believes they will be useful to human beings.B．He believes that they will control us in the future.C．He is not quite sure in what way they may influence us.D．He doesn't consider the construction of such machines possible.43． The word "carbon" (Line 3, Para.2) stands for______.A．intelligentrobotsB．a chemicalelementC．an organicsubstance.D．human beings44． A robot can be used to expand our frontiers when______.A．its intelligence and cost are beyond questionB．it is able to bear the rough environmentC．it is made as complex as the human brainD．its architecture is different from that of the presentones45． It can be inferred from the passage that______.A．after the installation of a great number of cells and connections, robots will be capable of self-reproductionB．with the rapid development of technology, people have cometo realize the possibility of making a machine with human-like abilityC．once we make a machine as complex as the human brain, itwill possess intelligenceD．robots will have control of the vast, man-made world in spaceTask 3Directions: The following is a passage.

《大学英语》试卷及答案(共三套)
《大学英语》(A卷)Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions:Choose the best answers according to the passage.Passage1Advertising can be thought of“as the means of making known in order to buy or sell goods or services”.Advertising aims to increase people’s awareness and arouse interest.It tries to inform and to persuade.The media are all used to spread the message,and the press offers a fairly cheap method.Magazines are used to reach special sections of the market.The cinema and commercial radio are useful for local markets.Television,although more expensive,can be very effective.Posters are fairly cheap and more permanent in their power of attraction.Other ways of increasing consumer interest are through exhibitions and trade fairs as well as direct mail advertising.We might ask whether the cost of advertising is paid for by the manufacturer or by the consumer.Since advertising forms partof the cost of production,which has to be covered by the selling price,it is clear that it is the customer who pays for advertising. However,if large scale advertising leads to increased demand,production costs are reduced,and the customer pays less.It is difficult to measure exactly the influence of advertising on sales.When the market is growing,advertising helps to increase demand.When the market is shrinking,advertising may prevent a bigger fall in scales than would occur without its support.What is clear is that businesses would not pay large sums for advertising if they were not convinced of its value to them.1、Advertising is often used to______.A)convince customers B)promote productionC)raise interest D)push the sales2、According to the passage,trade fair(Paragraph1)may_______.A)replace exhibitions and markets B)supply local goods and servicesC)attract possible customers D)provide cheap amusements3、Advertising is in the main paid for by______.A)the customer B)the producerC)the increased sales D)the decreased costs4、The author says that advertising can increase demand_______.A)in any period of sales B)in any circumstancesC)in a growing market D)in a shrinking market5、What the last sentence of this passage actually tells us is that______.A)businessmen usually do not pay more for advertising than they have toB)businessmen know well that advertising could bring them more profitsC)advertising couldn’t convince people of the value of the goodsD)advertising usually costs businessmen,large amounts of moneyPassage2Few Americans remain in one position or one place for a lifetime.We move from town to city to suburb,from high school to college in a different state,form a job in one region to a better job elsewhere,from the home where we raise our children to the home where we plan to live in retirement.With each move we are forever making new friends,who become part of our new life at that time.For many of us summer is a special time for forming new friendships.Today millions of Americans vacation abroad,and they go not only to see new sights but also with the hope of meeting new people.No one really expects a vacation trip to produce a close friend,but the beginning of a friendship is possible.The word“friend”can be applied to a wide range of relationships—to someone one has known for a few weeks in a new place, to a fellow worker,to a childhood playmate,to a man or woman,to a trusted confidant(知已)。

Passage 1Is breakfast the most important meal of the day My generation certainly grew up hearing and believing in this statement, which doesn’t stop most of us from rushing out in the morning with only a cup of coffee and a piece of toast. However, in an estimated 40 percent of American families there isn’t even an adult present in the kitchen to urge children to finish their breakfast. So, more children avoid breakfast than any other meal.While no one has proven that breakfast is the most important meal of the day, it’s at least of equal importance w ith lunch and dinner. Experts warn that your body burns the energy from food within four hours. Although you may use up less energy while you sleep, it’s a long time until morning and you still wake up with the need for lots more fuel.Some studies have sh own that children who avoid breakfast don’t do as well in school. Besides lack of energy, we all know how tough it is to focus when your stomach’s making noises and you're counting hours until lunch.In addition, a recent Canadian study suggests that avoiding breakfast may increase the chance of a heart attack. It's been known that the incidence of heart attacks is highest in the first few hours after waking.So, there’s no doubt the importance of breakfast is more than just an old wives’ tale. The problem comes in following the advice. How do you find time to make a proper meal and then make time to eat itThe American Health Association recommends that breakfast should supply at least one-fourth of the daily food needs. And it’s important to include a var iety of foods to supply energy until the next meal. Foods like bread can be digested 消化in as little as 30 minutes; however, foods like eggs, milk, meat, and cheese last longer, and can help you make it to lunchtime.1. Today the saying “Breakfast is the most important meal of the day” is ___ A __.A. paid less attention toB. totally out of dateC. no longer a truthD. of no value2. According to the passage breakfast is ____C_______ lunch and dinner.A. better thanB. less important thanC. as important asD. more important than3. The passage mentions that not having breakfast can cause children to have trouble ___B___.A. listeningB. focusingC. exercisingD. waiting4. People who do not have breakfast may be more likely to ___D___.A. get more work doneB. have frequent headachesC. lose too much weightD. suffer from heart disease5. Having various foods for breakfast ____B____.A. means you can eat less for lunchB. can supply you with energy until lunchC. may make you successful in the dayD. will give you warmth the whole dayPassage 2A person may have an idea about himself that will prevent him from doing good work.He may have the idea that he is not capable of it. It is easy to get such an idea even though there is not a good reason for it. A child may think he is stupid because he does not understand how to make the most of his mental skills, or he may accept anoth er person’s mistaken estimate of his ability.A person who believes that he is incapable will not make a real effort, because he feels that it would be useless. He is therefore likely to fail, and the failure will add to his belief about his incompetence.Alfred Adler, a famous psychiatrist, had an experience which illustrates this. When he was a small boy he got off to a poor start in arithmetic. His teacher got the idea that he had no ability in arithmetic, and told his parents what she thought. In this way, they too developed the idea. He accepted their mistaken estimate of his ability, felt that it was useless to try, and was very poor at arithmetic, just as they expected.One day he became very angry at the teacher and the other students because they laughed when he said he saw how to do a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve.When Adler succeeded in solving the problem, he rejected the idea that he couldn’t do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could. His anger and his new found confidence stimulated him to go at arithmetic problems with a new spirit. He now worked with interest, determination, and purpose, and he soon became very good at arithmetic.This experience made him realize that many people have more ability than they think they have, and that lack of success is as often the result of lack of knowledge of how to apply one’s ability, lack of confidence, and lack of determination as it is the result of lack of ability.1. What’s the main idea of the pass age AA. A wrong self-image may prevent one from reaching his full potential.B. It's easy for a person to believe in his own incompetence.C. Never take to heart what others think of you.D. Lack of success is often the result of lack of ability.2. Why a person’s mistaken notion often results in failure CA. He believes he’ll succeed one day.B. He feels that he’s not good enough.C. He believes he’ll fail anyway.D. He doesn’t need to make any effort.3. What’s the function of Alfred Adler’s example in the whole passage BA. Alfred Adler’s experience illustrates his poor start in math.B. Alfred Adler’s story exemplifies the author’s conclusion.C. Alfred Adler’s example shows his real ability in arithmetic.D. Alfred Adler’s example teaches us the value of self-confidence.4. According to the author, what’s the reason of a child for thinking he is stupid DA. There’s not a good reason for this kind of thinking.B. Because the people around him tell him it.C. Because he never thinks that he can also be smart.D. Because he does not know how to make full use of his mental powers.5. According to the author, many people’s mental pictures about themselves are ______C____.A. correctB. in focusC. out of focusD. accuratePassage 3There were days in which Danny could forget that he had graduated from Boston University. After 17 years of education in the finest schools in America, he couldn’t repair a burnt connection in his car or locate a carburetor 化油器.Danny is an educated man. He is a master of writing papers, taking tests, talking, and filling out forms. He can discuss Freud from a Marxian viewpoint and he can discuss Marx from a Freudian viewpoint.In short, Danny is a worker without skills, and he has a sociology degree to prove it. He is of very little use to American industry.This is nothing new. Colleges have been turning out workers of this sort for decades. Until five years ago, most of these workers took their degrees in sociology, philosophy, political science, or history, and marched right into the American middle class. Some found work in business and government but many, if not most, went into education, which is the only thing they knew anything about. Once there, they taught another generation the skills necessary to take tests and write papers.But the cycle broke down. There are too many teachers these days, college applications are down, plumbers are making $12 an hour, and graduates with degrees in fields like sociology are faced with a choice: graduate school or drive a taxi.Danny chose the taxi because driving was about the only skill he had that he could make money with. Danny refers to his job as “Real World 101”. He has been beaten and shot at. But he has also acquired some practical skills: he can get his tickets fixed; he knows how to cheat the company out of a few extra dollars a week; he found his carburetor, and he can fix it.1. What did Danny’s schooling teach him CA. How to repair cars.B. How to make choices. How to write papers. D. How to teach classes.2. Five years ago, a college degree ensured _______C_______.A. a position doing graduate studiesB. a skilled job for college graduatesC. a place in the American middle classD. a set of skills that was very useful3. What is causing the system of college study to break down CA. There are better jobs to be had.B. There are not enough students.C. There are too many teachers.D. There are few good jobs for us.4. Why did Danny choose to drive a taxi after he graduated from college DA. He wanted to get more true experience in society.B. He wanted to learn the new skill of repairing cars.C. Taxi drivers can earn more than middle class people.D. He had no other skill to support himself but driving.5. Though his job is difficult and dangerous, Danny ____B__.A. has begun to enjoy his new jobB. has learned skills that are usefulC. has finally forgotten his old lifeD. has learned more than in collegePassage 4Have you ever felt your mind getting confused after a sleepless night and you couldn’t come up with an original thought no matter how hard you triedYou were probably right if you thought that was caused by a lack of sleep. Dr. Home, a sleep researcher in England, studied 24 college students. One group got their normal eight hours of sleep. The other group didn't get any sleep atall—they stayed awake all night. The next day, Dr. Home tested the students. He asked them questions that required creative and original thinking. One of the questions was “How many uses can a box be put to”The results The wide-awake students did well on the tests. The tired students did poorly.Research has already shown that tired people can do okay on tests of routine thinking, like simple addition. But Dr. Home tested creative thinking only.As part of his study, he offered an amount of money as a reward to the tired students if they did well. But even this encouragement wasn’t enough to help the students overcome their tired ness. They still did poorly. Dr. Home believes that the part of the brain where thinking takes place may get worn out during waking hours. Sleep may help to repair the brain overnight. Without any sleep, he emphasizes, “even if you think harder, you cannot do better.”This study gives people something to think about, especially people like hospital workers and airplane pilots, who must stay awake all night and then make emergency decisions.1. According to the passage, failure to think of new ideas may be ____ A ____.A. caused by a lack of sleepB. caused by hard questionsC. caused by a weak brainD. caused by too much study2. Tired people have no problem with ______C______.A. finding uses for boxesB. making creative ideasC. doing simple math testsD. taking research tests3. The purpose for offering money to the tired students was to ___ D__.A. help them repair their brainsB. stimulate their interestsC. convince people to joinD. encourage them to do better4. Sleep might help people by _____ A_____.A. repairing the brainB. giving creative dreamsC. providing fresh energyD. allowing harder thought5. This information is useful to people like nurses and pilots because ____ D____.A. they often meet situations in which they must be creativeB. they often take tests to display their abilities to do their jobsC. they often go to the hospital because of brain problemsD. they often get little sleep but make important decisionsPart III Cloze本大题共20小题,每小题1分,共20分Directions: In this section there is a passage with 20 blanks.For each blank there are three choices marked A, B, and C on the right side of the paper.

I did have some doubts. After careful consideration, however, I finally decided it was worthwhile to attend college.I decided to go to college mainly because I was always hungry for knowledge. I became more and more interested in math, physics and chemistry. I longed to explore further into theses areas.I chose to go to college also because I knew a college education would provide me with opportunities for all-round development. I could take part in sports and join campus organizations, which could help make me a well-rounded person.I chose to go to college partly because I was aware that in today’s world many professions require years of specialized training. People without a college education will find it difficult to obtain a desirable position.After I went to college, I found my decision was a wise one.。

Passage 1What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is "no". It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a tool is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he getsto many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist's knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by thechanges in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einstein's ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.6、What makes a scientist according to the passage? ____B____.A. The tools he usesB.

Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one's own.Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one's free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight's (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.11、Which of the following statements is NOT true? ______B__A：People who love Nature prefer to live outside the city.B：All the people who work in London prefer to live in the country.C：Some people enjoying city life prefer to work and live inside London.D：Many nature lovers, though working in London, prefer to live outside the city.12、With the same money needed for____C____, one can buy a little house with a garden in the country.A：getting a small flat with a gardenB：having a small flat with a gardenC：renting a small flat without a gardenD：buying a small flat without a garden13、When the garden is in blossom, that one ____B____ has been rewarded.A：living in the countryB：having spent time working in the gardenC：having a garden of his ownD：having been digging, planting and watering14、People who think happiness lies in the city life would feel that ____A___ if they had to live outside London.A：their life was meaninglessB：their life was invaluableC：they didn't deserve a happy lifeD：they were not worthy of their happy life15、The underlined phrase get away from in the 3rd paragraph refers to ____C____.A：deal withB：do away withC：escape fromD：prevent awayPassage 3People 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 often artificial (人造的) substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance (物质), such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.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 there 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, metal and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us not only to buy thing we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyonecan help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal (处理)of the products we use in our daily lives.16. The main cause of pollution is __A___.A. the release of artificial or natural substances into the environmentB. the production of new industrial goodsC. increased amounts of a natural substanceD. our ever-increasing population17. Much of the pollution could be controlled if only ___C_.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 fertilizers18.
