湖南成人高等教育学位英语考试试题

湖南成人高等教育学位英语考试试题全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Big Grown-Up English Test!Wow, I heard there's this really big and important test that grown-ups have to take called the "Hunan Adult Higher Education Degree English Exam!" It sounds super serious and really hard. I got so curious about it, I just had to ask my mom and dad to tell me all about it.First thing they told me is that it's a test all about the English language. You know, that other language that uses those funny looking letters instead of cool Chinese characters. I've been learning a little bit of English at school and it's pretty neat, but having a whole test just about English sounds crazy hard!Mom said the test is especially for grown-ups who didn't get to go to a university when they were young like me. Maybe they had to start working instead or just didn't have the chance. But now they want to get an official degree from a university by taking this big test. Getting that degree can help them get betterjobs and make more money for their families. No wonder it's such an important test!The test has listening, reading, writing and speaking sections, just like the English tests I take at school, but a billion times harder since it's for grown-up university students. Dad tried explaining some of the things they have to know, like mastering all the grammar rules, understanding long essays, giving speeches and more. My head was spinning just listening to it all! How do grown-ups memorize and do all that?One of the hardest parts, Dad said, is the writing section. The test-takers have to write a huge essay of over 400 words! That's like a novel for a little kid like me. And they're expected to use proper vocabulary, grammar, and written formulas like a professional writer. No way could I write that much perfect English at my age. Grown-ups must have super brains to handle that.As for the speaking part, Mom acted out how they get tested speaking English out loud, like describing pictures, answering questions, and giving mini-speeches. Her fake "test voice" trying to sound all professional and serious with her English made me crack up laughing. I don't know how the grown-ups don't laugh either when they have to do that!The listening comprehension part probably isn't quite as hard as some of the other sections for the adults, Mom figures. After all, just like me, they've had years of practice listening to English songs, movies, videos and people talking. But even for listening, everything is probably super fast and filled with difficult vocabulary that I've never heard of.Then there's that terrifying reading part of the test. Dad dramatized how they get massively long passages to read through, like classics from old English writers or complex articles on subjects like science, economics and history. Once they've sweated through reading all those mind-bending words, they have to answer crazy hard comprehension questions proving they understood it all. I'm getting mentally tired just imagining it!All in all, this Hunan Adult Higher Education Degree English Test sounds like a real-life nightmare for grown-ups! I've got endless respect for any adult who can conquer that impossible-looking beast. How they manage to prepare for and pass such an intense, University-level English exam while juggling work, family lives and grown-up responsibilities is beyond me.When I'm their age, there's no way I'd want to put myself through that kind of academic torture! Give me multiplication tables and grammar lessons at school any day over that English degree exam. For now, I'll just be grateful I'm a carefree kid without that looming over my head.Heck, the more I learn about this big test, the more I appreciate how hard Mom and Dad must have worked to get their degrees way back when. I couldn't be prouder of them for being such language and academic warriors! From now on when they jokingly call me a "little scholar" and tell me to study hard, I'll know they're speaking from personal experience about real scholarly suffering.I'll take their advice to heart and work my absolute hardest in school every day. Who knows, maybe decades down the road when I'm a grown-up like them, I'll find myself bravely signing up to face that terrifying Hunan Adult Higher Education English Exam too! Wish me luck...I'm definitely going to need it!篇2My Big Sister's Crazy Important TestMy big sister Annie is in college, but not like a regular college kid. She's an "adult learner" which means she goes toclasses at night and on weekends after she gets done with her job during the day. Annie has been working really hard for a few years now to get her bachelor's degree.The reason she has to work so hard is because she didn't go to college right after high school like a lot of people do. Instead, she got a job at a company downtown. But after a few years, she realized she wanted to get an even better job, and you need a 4-year college degree to get promoted to the good positions. That's when she decided to go back to school as an "adult learner."It hasn't been easy for Annie. She has to balance herfull-time job, her classes, homework, studying, and still try to have a little bit of a life outside of work and school. My parents and I try to help out as much as we can by doing chores around the house and giving her quiet time to study. But even with all our help, she still gets really stressed out sometimes.The thing that has been causing Annie the most stress lately is this huge test she has to take called the "Hunan Adult Higher Education Degree English Exam." Basically, it's a big important English test that all adult students in our province have to pass before they can graduate with their bachelor's degrees.From what I understand, the test is incredibly difficult. It has reading, writing, listening, and speaking sections, and you have to prove you can use English at a really high level to pass. Annie has been studying her butt off for months now, going through practice test after practice test, making flashcards, listening to English audio lessons, you name it.I've tried to help Annie study when I can. Sometimes I'll quiz her on vocabulary words or let her practice her speaking by describing things to me in English. However, a lot of the stuff on the test is way too advanced for a 9-year-old like me. Annie has shown me some of the reading passages and essays she has to be able to understand and write, and I can barely follow along! I don't know how she keeps it all straight in her head.The test is coming up in just a few weeks, and Annie is a nervous wreck. She says this exam is her "make it or break it" moment to finally get her degree after years of hard work. If she doesn't pass, she may have to try again next year or even give up on finishing her bachelor's altogether. No pressure, right?Annie: "David, can you let me practice my English speaking one more time before bed? I really need to drill these vocabulary words."Me: "Sure thing, Annie! Let's get quizzin'!"The whole family is rooting for Annie and knows she's going to knock this crazy important test out of the park. She has been working towards this goal for so long, and she deserves that degree. I bags not proofreading her essays though - they're way too confusing for me!When it's all over, we're going to throw Annie a huge party to celebrate. I'm talking balloons, cake, the works! She has earned it. Who knows, maybe after seeing how hard Annie had to work, I'll be inspired to go to college myself one day. But uh, probably not as an "adult learner"... That sounds like way too much work!Go get 'em, Annie! We're all behind you!篇3My Big Sister's Huge English TestHi there! My name is Xiao Ming and I'm 8 years old. I'm in 3rd grade at Changsha No. 1 Primary School. I love playing basketball, watching cartoons, and eating my mom's amazing dumplings. But today I want to tell you about something really big that's happening with my older sister Mei Mei. She's getting ready for a massive English test called the Hunan Adult Higher Education Degree English Examination. It's a huge deal!Mei Mei is 25 years old and works at a cool tech company in Changsha during the day. But at night, she studies like crazy for this giant English test. She takes online classes, does practice exams, reads thick books, and makes flashcards. Sometimes I try to help her practice her English conversations, but she's already way better than me!So why is this test so important? Well, Mei Mei really wants to get her bachelor's degree, but she didn't go to university right after high school. Instead, she worked for a few years to save up money and get experience. Now she's taking this big national English exam so she can finally get her 4-year degree!From what I understand, the test has four main parts: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. The listening section has conversations, lectures, and news clips that you have to answer questions about. The reading has long passages to read and comprehend. For the writing, you have to write essays and letters. And for speaking, you get asked opinion questions that you have to respond to out loud. It covers sooooo many English topics!Mei Mei has been studying grammar rules, vocabulary words, test strategies, and sample questions for months now. She takes practice tests on the computer and gets her essays corrected byher English tutor. It looks incredibly hard! There are so many confusing English words, idioms, and cultural references to memorize. Sometimes when I see her studying late at night, her head looks like it's going to explode from all the information!But Mei Mei is determined. She says this degree will allow her to get promotions at work and increase her salary. It will also make her feel accomplished to finally finish her bachelor's degree, even if it's years later than most people. I'm really proud of her for working so hard towards this goal.The exam is held twice per year, in April and October. Mei Mei is taking it this upcoming October. For the last few months before the test, she'll be super focused. No video games, no going out with friends, just pure studying! I'll try my best to be a good little brother and not bother her too much.On the big exam day in October, she has to go to a testing center and be there for literally the entire day from 8am to 5pm! Can you imagine?! They get breaks for lunch and snacks, but still, it's going to be exhausting. I plan to make her a nice care package with her favorite snacks to help her stay energized.After the exam, she'll have to wait a few weeks to get her scores back. I really hope she passes with a high score! If not, shemay have to take the whole thing over again next year. My poor sister's brain will be fried by the end of this process!Whether she passes or not, I'm just super impressed by Mei Mei's work ethic and perseverance. Studying this intensely while working full-time is no joke. I'll be her own personal cheerleader, making her motivational signs and bringing her treats when she feels stressed. Go Mei Mei, go! You've got this!Maybe once she finishes this degree, she can finally relax a little. Although knowing my hard-working sister, she'll probably just sign up for another crazy challenge right away! She's a true inspiration to me to never stop learning.Well, that's all I can tell you about Mei Mei's huge English exam coming up. It's been interesting learning about it and seeing how much time and effort goes into preparing. I don't know if I'll ever be that dedicated to my studies! For now, I'm just happy being a goofy 3rd grader. But I'll be wishing Mei Mei the best of luck. I'm confident her countless hours of practice will pay off. Maybe one day when I'm older, I'll even take the exam myself to get an advanced degree like her. But let's not get ahead of ourselves - that's lightyears away! For now, it's all about Mei Mei. You've got this, sis!篇4The Big Grown-Up English TestHi there! My name is Lily and I'm 8 years old. I want to tell you all about this really big English test that my mom has to take. It's called the Hunan Adult Higher Education Degree English Test. That's a super long name, isn't it?My mom is already a grown-up, but she goes to a special school for adults who want to learn more after they finish regular school. She says it's called "continuing education" which I think is a funny name. Doesn't all education keep continuing as you learn new things?Anyway, to get a degree from her grown-up school, my mom has to pass this big English test. English is the language they speak in places like America and England. We learn a little bit of English at my regular school too, but this test my mom has to take is supposed to be really hard.The test has four parts - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. For the listening part, you have to hear people talking in English and answer questions about what they said. My mom practices this by watching movies and shows in English at home. She says it helps her get used to how English sounds.For the reading part, you have to read passages in English and then answer comprehension questions. My mom reads English books, newspapers, and websites to get ready for this section. She has a really big English-Chinese dictionary that she uses to look up words she doesn't know.The writing section is where you have to write an essay or article in English on a certain topic. My mom practices her writing by keeping an English journal and also by writing practice essays. She always asks me to proofread and I circle any silly mistakes I can find!Finally, there is a speaking part where you have to answer questions and have a conversation in English. My mom rehearses this part by talking to herself in English when she's cooking or driving. I tease her that she sounds kind of crazy, but she says it really helps her practice.I know my mom studies really hard for this test. She makes flashcards, listens to English podcasts, and is always looking up vocabulary. Sometimes I feel bad that she has to work so hard on this test when she's already a grown-up. But she says it's important for her to keep learning and improving her English.The test sounds super difficult to me. Having to listen, read, write, and speak all in English for hours? No thanks! I'll just stick to playing video games and watching cartoons for now.But I'm really proud of my mom for taking on such a big challenge. I know she's going to do an amazing job because she is one of the smartest, most hard-working people I know. I can't wait to celebrate with her when she passes the test!Maybe after this, she can teach me more English. Then we can watch movies together without having to read those funny subtitles at the bottom of the screen. Just don't expect me to take any big tests anytime soon. I've got enough on my plate just mastering dodgeball and long division! An 8-year-old can only handle so much.Good luck on your test, mom! You're going to nail it for sure. And remember, if you ever need a break from studying, I'm always up for going to the park to play. Maybe you can quiz me on my English vocabulary while we're climbing the monkey bars!篇5The Hu-what Test? An Adventure in Big Kid LandHey there friends! Today I'm going to tell you all about this really crazy thing called the "Who-nan Ah-dult High-erEh-dju-cay-shun Dee-gree Eng-lish Test." That's a huge mouthful, isn't it? I had no idea what it was at first, but then my parents explained it to me and I thought it sounded like a fun adventure into the world of the big kids!You see, this test is for all the grown-ups who didn't get to finish their schooling when they were younger like we are now. Can you imagine that? Missing out on awesome things like recess, art class, and fighting with your friends over whosePokémon cards are the coolest? Well, that's what happened to a lot of adults in a place called "Who-nan" which I'm pretty sure is a make-believe land like Narnia or Middle-Earth.Anyway, these grown-ups from Who-nan finally get a chance to take really hard tests on things like eng-lish (that's their language, kinda like how we learn Spanish in school except way harder). If they pass, they get a fancyschmancy "dee-gree" which is like a gold star except for adults. Pretty cool, right?The test has all sorts of huge big-kid sections that I can't even imagine. There's listening, where you have to under-stand what people are saying without any pictures to help you. Reading, where you have to make sense of longandcomplicatedsentences without any cool illustrations. Writing, where you need to make up stories without picking up a single crayon! And my personal biggestnightmare...speaking! Where you have to make noises with your mouth in front of other people without crying or putting your head down on the table. No thank you!My parents tried explaining more of the details to me, but I'll be honest - I kinda zoned out after a while. Something about "integrated task production" and "sociolinguisticinappropriacy." No clue what those big words mean, but they sure do sound intense! Gives me shivers just thinking about it. How do big kids' brains even work?Well, despite all the scary-sounding sections, I think it's really cool that the grown-ups in Who-nan get this chance. Getting an education is super important, even if you do have to wait until you're a tired old adult to complete it. Plus, I bet the grown-ups get to use pencils and erasers instead of those boring pens we're not allowed to use yet. So lucky!Heck, if this whole "Who-nan Ah-dult Tuh-sting" thing goes well, maybe they'll finally let us kids start learning Ing-lish too! Then we could move on from those basic Dora and Diego shows and eavesdrop on what the British kids' shows are all about. I'm just kidding...I think. An eight-year-old can dream, right?At the end of the day, I'll probably just stick to my normal kid tests, like making sure I can spell "minimum day" correctly or doing those timed math worksheets. Less pressure that way. But hey, you never know - maybe in a couple decades I'll be tackling "integrated task production" myself! Or maybe I'll just become a professional playground monitor. Either way, I wish all those grown-ups in Who-nan the best of luck on their Eng-lish test. The kid inside me is rooting for ya!篇6My Favorite Animal - The PandaHi everyone! Today I want to tell you about my favorite animal, the panda. Pandas are really cute and they live in a country called China. Let me share some interesting facts about them!Pandas are big and cuddly. They have black and white fur, which makes them look like they're wearing a tuxedo! They also have big round eyes and a cute button nose. Pandas are known for being very lazy and they spend most of their time eating bamboo. They are really good at climbing trees too!Did you know that pandas are endangered? That means there aren't many of them left in the world. People are trying toprotect them and make sure they have a safe place to live. Pandas are important because they help keep the forests healthy by spreading seeds when they move around.Pandas are also famous for their funny way of moving. They waddle when they walk, and it looks like they're doing a little dance. It's so adorable! Sometimes, they even roll down hills just for fun. I wish I could join them and have a rolling race!In China, pandas are considered as a national treasure. They are loved by people all over the world. Many people visit China just to see pandas in person. It would be a dream come true for me to see a real panda someday. I would give it a big hug!I have a panda stuffed animal that I sleep with every night. It's so soft and cuddly, just like the real pandas. I pretend that I'm taking care of a baby panda and we go on adventures together. I can't wait to visit a zoo and see real pandas up close.In conclusion, pandas are the best animals ever! They are cute, cuddly, and they bring so much joy to people. I hope more and more people will work together to protect them and their habitat. Let's take care of our panda friends!That's all for now. Thank you for listening to my panda story. Bye-bye!Word count: 245 words。

Many people are surprised when they find that the Internet was set up as recently as the 1960s. At that time, computers were large and expensive. Computer networks didn‘t work well. If one computer in the network broke down, then the whole network stopped. So a new network system had to be set up. It should be good enough to be used by many different computers. If part of the network was not working, information could be sent through another part. In this way the computer network system would keep on working all the time. At first the Internet was only used by the government, but in the 1970s, universities, hospitals and banks began to use it, too. However, computers were still very expensive and the Internet was difficult to use. At the beginning of the 1990s, computers became cheaper and easier to use.

He didnot want to be early or late. He had forgotten to put on his watch so he wentup to a man who was waiting for a taxi. ―Excuse me, sir,‖ he said, very politely, ―but could you tell me the time?‖ The man, who was verywell-dressed and looked quite rich, said nothing. He did not even look at Alan. Alan spoke to him again. ―Excuse me, sir,‖ he said, ―but could you please tell me what time it is?‖ This time the man looked at him, but hedid not speak and looked quickly away.

Let‘s start with four. The beach, famous for its water temperature, air temperature and waves, is thefirst beauty. There are hundreds of miles of beaches on the twenty islandsof Hawaii. They are thought to be among the finest beaches in the world. Then, what do you think would be the second beautiful thing? It is volcanoes (火山), of course. These volcanoes are not just a part of the islands; they madethe islands in the first place. Because of them the islands are still growing. What would be the third thing of beauty that the first visitor to Hawaii would notice? It probably wouldn‘t be just one thing, but many things: all the wonderful fruits and flowers of the islands. Sugar cane, bananas and pineapples are Hawaii‘s biggest exports. Sugar cane has been growing in Hawaiifor a thousand years. As for pineapples, the islands produce more than any other places in the world, which has made Dole Company the biggestfruit-packing company in the world. The fourth and most beautiful thing about Hawaii is the people who live there. The Hawaiians never rush, and perhaps this is because they care more for human life than they care for the machine. There is an old Hawaiian law that a man can go to sleep in the middleof the road if he wants to. What makes the people of Hawaii so beautiful is their feeling about people. There are 64 different combinations of races onthe islands, and they all live in peace. They believe ―Above all nationsis humanity.That is the most beautiful thing of all.26. According to the passage, Hawaii is made up of B__.A. one islandB. twenty islandsC. sixty-four islandsD. hundreds of islands27. Why are the volcanoes so special to the islands? BA.

According to the passage, ―above all nations is humanity‖ might mean__CA. not all nations have humanityB. humanity is as important as a nationC. humanity has no national boundariesD. all human beings should live in peacePassage Four There is a measurable relation between how much a person learnsand his attitude toward the subject to be learned. When faced with a difficult learning task, one path to success is to concentrate on the positive aspectsof the subject matter. If a student has a boring teacher, one solution isto look for the positive aspects of completing the course, regardless of how boring the teacher happens to be. To accomplish this might require a private tutor or some independent reading, but with the right attitude, success is possible.Over-achievers –students who do better than their test scores show –usually have a positive interest toward learning. They may learn some things more slowly, and they may make more efforts, but, to compensate (补偿), they are often better at applying what they have learned. As long as they do not have emotional problems, they are successful. Under-achievers – those who function below their ability shown by test scored – often tend to allow afew negative factors to affect them. Because of their negative attitudes, they sometimes become unfairly critical of teachers. They allow themselvesto get bored when it is not necessary. In short, their attitudes often cause them to learn less than over-achievers. If you learn to replace a negative attitude toward learning with something more positive, you are on the roadto achieving almost any goal you desire. For example, if you realize a personal computer with a word processor would improve your performance, but have an attitude that keeps telling you that a computer is difficult to operate, you tend to make all kinds of excuses. In short, you resist makingfull use of a terrific tool, simply because your negative attitude preventsyou from learning.31. What does the author think a student should do if he has a boring teacher?DA. Look for a new course.B. Be critical of the teacher.C. Complete the course with a good score.D. Have a right attitude toward the teacher32. The writer thinks that over-achievers and under-achievers mainly differin __C.A. their test scoresB. their judgment of othersC. their attitudes toward learningD. their skills in using computers33.

The example of the personal computer shows that __B.A. finding excuses helps in learningB. to react negatively can be harmfulC. hard-working is the key to successD. making use of the computer is important35. What is the main idea of the passage? AA. Attitudes play an important role in learning.B. Students should learn how to use personal computers.C. Teachers are not so important in the learning process.D. There are many differences between over-and under-achievers.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (20 points) Directions: There are 40 incomplete sentences in this part.

It is reached by a delightful road that drops down 700 meters over two huge “steps” of rock to the sea.Tourists go down to Apollonia in the afternoon, after they have spent the morning in Cyrene. Both places were cities long ago, and they are full of interesting and beautiful ruins. There is more to be seen in Cyrene — on the ground, you understand. If you want to know the excitement of an underwater city, Apollonia is the place.Some ruins of Apollonia are on the mainland. Some are on an island a thousand meters from the short. The rest now lie between, under eight or ten meters of water. The sea is warm, seldom rough. It is often almost as clear as glass.On a still day, then, swim out towards the island. Swim under water as much as you can, with your eyes open. Look down.First you see a street, with houses and shops on both sides. Their roofs have fallen in, but the walls are standing. Some shops have a big stone table — a counter perhaps ？C and stone shelves. At the end of this street you come to a square. It has a wide pavement all around, and some buildings open directly on to the pavement. Were they cafes? Did the waiters put tables and chairs on the pavement in summer long ago?Over two thousand years ago the king of Egypt visited the city. He brought his daughter Cleopatra with him. She was ten years old at the time, and her father built a huge swimming bath for her. You can still see Cleopatra's Bath, behind the cafes in the square. And you will not be surprised to hear that it is still full of water!16. How far is the underwater city Apollonia away from Cyrene?A) About 16 kilometers.

What did the king of Egypt do when he visited the city with is ten-year-old daughter?A) He built a small, well-equipped bath for his daughter.B) He built a large square for his daughter to play.C) He built many cafes in the square.D) He built a huge swimming bath for his daughter.19. What did the author suggest that you visit Apollonia?A) Drop two "steps" of rock to the sea. C) Swim under water.B) Go along the beach. D) Swim out towards the island.20. The author says that "Cleopatra's Bath is still full of water" becauseA) it's still open to the tourists to take a bathB) it's under about nine meters of waterC) it's too huge to be full of waterD) it's big enough to be a swimming poolQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Passage TwoMany American college and university students live in university residence halls. These halls are popularly called "dorms". Residence halls may offer various types of living accommodations. There are single rooms, in which a student lives alone but thereprobably are a good many more double rooms, which two students share. Some dorms have sets of rooms, where small groups of students have separate bedrooms but share a bathroom and maybe a study room.There are usually a number of conveniences available for those living in university residence halls. Most have washing machines and clothes dryers for use by the residents. Many dorms have kitchens where students can prepare light meals: Residence halls generally provide not only room and board but public rooms and recreational facilities (娱乐设施) and sometimes study rooms for their use.If you live in a dormitory you need to know what the rules and regulations are. Meals usually are served at only certain hours, and you must be there at those hours if you expect to eat. There may be only certain hours when visitors may come, or they may be limited to certain areas of the dormitory. Often cooking in bedrooms is prohibited (禁止), and the use of certain pieces of electrical equipment such as coffee pots or hair dryers may be limited.Living in a residence hall carries certain obligation (义务). You have to be considerate of others, especially during study hours. Telephone calls and visits by friends should be short. You have to cooperate in keeping the room as neat as possible. It is sometimes hard to be tolerant of another person's habits that may differ from your own.21. Residence halls in American universities provide .A) single rooms shared by two students.B) apartments for small groups of students.C) double rooms for two students.D) separate rooms with a common bathroom.22. Living in university halls is convenient because .A) meals are served at any timeB) most halls provide various facilitiesC) public rooms are available for visitorsD) all have study rooms for their own use23. What is prohibited in residence halls?A) Eating meals in one's bedroom. C) The use of electrical equipment.B) The use of coffee pots. D) Preparing meals in bedrooms.24. What must you learn to be tolerant of if you live in a dormitory?A) Your roommate's telephone calls.B) Habits that may differ from your own.C) Visits by your roommate's friends.D) Roommates who are inconsiderate.25. Living in a residence hall you have to .A) do your best to keep the room cleanB) form a habit of other'sC) have your phone calls in your roomD) study hard during study hoursQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Passage ThreeWhat is a good listener? Students who feel they are say it is because they pay attention; remember what the person says; and ask questions based on what the other has said; or it is because they like people and are interested in them. They feel they are poor listenerswhen they think about something else while the other is talking or when they're tired, or not interested in what she or he is talking about. In fact, there are a variety of ways to listen, just as there are a variety of ways to say something. Human beings are complex and concealing. Often we don't say what we want to say, or say exactly the opposite of what we want to say. Sometimes, we aren't honest or direct with another because we think we don't have the right or are afraid of what will happen if we are. The body "talks", too, sometimes more honestly than the tongue.These different ways of talking need different ways of listening. To keep the seesaw going in conversations and in relationships, we need to understand and use these different ways, especially if our goal is to be a caring, thoughtful person. By knowing howto listen in various ways, you can be accurate in picking up messages no matter how they are masked or distorted (变形了的) or how they are delivered. Some messages are heard just by listening silently; some, by holding a hand or giving a hug (拥抱). But to be able to respond accurately, you need to hear accurately.Most people listen only with their ears. Too few listen with their hearts as well as their ears, listening to the other's, sharing of his or her hopes, joys, fears.26. According to the passage, listening only with ears may happen to us when .A) we are emotionally tired C) we are so interested in the topicB) we are physically disabled D) we are asked many questions27. Which of the following is NOT TRUE about a good listener?A) He can feel what the speaker thinks.B) He can share the speaker's feeling.C) He can remember what the speaker says.D) He can listen with his heart.28. The purpose in writing the second paragraph is to .A) demonstrate why we are not honest in communicationB) explain how our body "talks"C) illustrate ways used by people in speakingD) show that understanding one's speech is not an easy job29. The word "seesaw" (Line 1, Para. 3) probably means .A) communication C) understandingB) purpose D) friendship30. According to the passage our failure to give proper response to the speaker is probably because .A) we misunderstand what he says C) he speaks in a distorted wayB) we don't like the speaker D) he speaks in a different languageQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Passage FourSuperstition (迷信) is a difficult question. We cannot quite say that superstition in Britain is dead. Its history is too long and too recent for that, and indeed you will find many remains of it in modem Britain. But they are only connected chiefly with vague beliefs of good luck and bad luck. It is unlucky, for instance, to walk under a ladder, or to spill salt, or break a mirror, or to have anything to do with number 13; whereas a horseshoe brings good luck, and people jokingly "touch wood" to prevent the return of a past misfortune. There are still many strange country remedies against sickness which are obviously superstitions. Most of all, there is still a surprising amount of interest in fortune-telling, e.g. in the form of "horoscopes" (占星术) in newspapers and women's magazines — though for most people this is nothing more than an amusement, which they may well be slightly ashamed of.But the real measure of superstition is fear. In this sense there is no superstition in Britain. British people as a whole do not believe in evil influences or evil spirits. Sickness and misfortune do not come from devils, but are the result of chance or foolishness or inefficiency. Devils belong only to history books. Devils exist only in the mind — usually the minds of others. Magic is simply an interesting word for performingtricks. Fairies (童话故事中的仙女) are pretty little winged creatures in "fairy stories" for children and any adult who believed in fairies or magic or devils would be considered slightly mad. Thus, modem Britain has largely emerged from superstition, and the future seems to consist not of devils, but of matter and machines.31.
