Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions:There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there arefour choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the bestchoice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with asingle line through the center.Passage OneNormally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of 36 courses, each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes perweek for fifteen weeks. While attending a university a student will probably attend 4 or 5 courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take 4 years attending 2 semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during the degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes pressure from the strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find timefor great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example by cheating, has to appear before a student court. With enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity.A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him or her later in his or her career.21. Normally a student would at least attend __________ classes each week.A. 10B. 12C. 15D. 2022. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.A.to live in a different universityB.to take a particular course in a different universityC.to live at home and drive to classesD.to get two degrees from two different universities23. American university students are usually under pressure of work because______.A.their academic performance will affect their future careers.B.they are heavily involved in student affairsC.they have to observe university disciplineD.they want to run for positions of authority in student organizations24. Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probablybecause_____.A.they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB.they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC.such positions help them get better jobsD.such positions are usually well paid25. The student organizations seem to be effective in ___________.A.dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB.ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC.evaluating students, performance by bring them before a courtD.keeping up the students, enthusiasm for social activities.Passage TwoIt’s very interesting to note where the debate about diversity(多样化) is taking place. It is taking place primarily in political circles. Here at the College Fund, we have a lot of contact with top corporate leaders; none of them is talking about getting rid of those instruments that produce diversity. In fact, they say that if their companies are to compete in the global village and in the global market place, diversity is an imperative. They also say that the need for talented, skilled Americans means we have to expand the pool of potential employees. And in looking at where birth rates are growing and at where the population is shifting, corporate America understands that expanding the pool means promoting policies that help provide skills to more minorities, more women, and more immigrants. Corporate leaders know that if that doesn’t occur in our society, they will not have the engineers, the scientists, the lawyers, or the businessmanagers they will need.Like wise, I don't hear people in the academy saying, ―Let’s go backward. Let’s go back to the good old days, when we had a meritocracy(不拘一格选人才)‖ (which was never true-we never had a meritocracy, although we’ve come closer to it in the last 30 years). I recently visited a great little college in New York where the campus has doubled its minority population in the last six years. I talked with an African American who has been a professor there for a long time, and she remembers that when she first joined the community, there were fewer than a handful of minorities on campus. Now, all of us feel the university is better because of the diversity. So where we hear this debate is primarily in political circles and in the media –not in corporate board rooms or on college campuses.36. The word ―imperative‖ (Para.1) most probably refers to something___________.A. superficialB. remarkableC. debatableD. essential37. Which of the following groups of people still differ in their views on diversity?A. MinoritiesB. Politicians.C. ProfessorsD. Managers.38. High corporate leaders seem to be in favor of promoting diversity so as to____________.A. lower the rate of unemploymentB. win equal political rights for minoritiesC. be competitive in the world marketD. satisfy the demands of a growing population39. It can be inferred from the passage that _____________.A. meritocracy can never be realized without diversityB. American political circles will not accept diversityC. it is unlikely that diversity will occur in the U.S. mediaD. minorities can only enter the fields where no debate is heard about diversity40. According to the passage diversity can be achieved in American society by___________.A. expanding the pool of potential employeesB. promoting policies that provide skills to employeesC. training more engineers, scientists, lawyers and business managers.D. providing education for all regardless of race or sexPassage ThreeDrug-taking is widespread. It is apparently very easy for sportsman and sportswomen to get drugs. The strangest thing about the use of drugs in sports is the fact that there is no real evidence to show that they improve athletic performance. And they can cause liver cancer, and have led to the death of two world-class athletes.Now taking urine samples of athletes is practiced worldwide, yet drug-taking remains a serious problem. To fight it, the Sports Council in Britain has started in-and-out-of-competition of drug testing program. Before, competitions were tested at random, which means a few people were selected without knowing beforehand. This was mostly done during matches. Now, athletescan be tested when they train as well. This way the authorities will be able to catch more drug-takers, who will never know beforehand when they have to take a drugs test.Many people think of drugs as something only found in chemicals. But even cough medicine, alcohol and caffeine which is found in coffee, are considered drugs if a test shows an athlete has taken too much. Of course, an athlete is allowed to drink coffee. For some drugs, a certain amount is permitted. For other drugs, such as steroids( 类固醇), any amount in urine samples leads to a ban.41. It is implied in the passage that _________.A. drugs are losing their market in the sports circleB. fewer and fewer athletes are taking drugs nowadaysC. sportsmen lose in competition as a result of drug-takingD. drugs don’t seem to make athletes perform better in competition42. What is new about the drug testing program as compared with the previouspractice?A. Urine samples are taken and tested.B. Athletes are selected and tested during and after the competition.C. More athletes are selected to be tested during matches.D. Athletes are tested in training as well as during competition for testing43. To make the result of the drug test negative, sportsmen must _________beforetaking a test.A. avoid being selected for testingB. not take much medicineC. give up drinkingD. limit intake of liquids also considered to be drugs44. What happens when steroids is found in urine samples?A. Competitors are banned from participating in sports events.B. Competitors are expelled from their teams.C. Drinks containing the drug are removed from the market.D. Drinks containing the drug are destroyed.45. According to the passage, the main reason why drug-taking is not permitted forsportsmen is that _________.A. it does harm to their healthB. it makes them make progress too rapidlyC. they cheat the audience without showing their real skillsD. they are naturally strong enough themselvesPassage FourNative Americans from the southeastern part of what is now the United States believed that the universe in which they lived was made up of three separate, but related, worlds: the Upper World, the Lower World, and This World. In the last there lived humans, most animals, and all plants. This world, a round island resting on the surface of waters, was suspended from the sky by four cords attached to the island at the four cardinal points of the compass. Lines drawn to connect the opposite points of the compass, from north to south and from east to west, intersected This World to divide it into four wedge-shaped segments. Thus a symbolic representation of the human world was a cross within a circle, the cross representing the intersecting lines and the circle—the shape of This World.Each segment of This World was identified by its own color.According to Cherokee doctrine, east was associated with the color red because it was the direction of the Sun, the greatest deity of all. Red was also the color of fire, believed to be directly connected with she Sun, with blood, and therefore with life. Finally, red was the color of success. The west was the Moon segment, it provided no warmth and was not life-giving as the Sun was. So its color was black. North was the direction of cold, and so its color was blue (sometimes purple), and it represented trouble and defeat. South was the direction of warmth; its color, white, was associated with peace and happiness.The sou theastern Native Americans’ universe was one in which opposites were constantly at war with each other, red against black, blue against white. This world hovered(徘徊)somewhere between the perfect order and predictability of the UpperWorld and the total disorder and instability of the Lower World. The goal was to find some kind of halfway path, or balance, between those other worlds.46. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A.One Civilization’s View of the UniverseB.The Changing of the Seasons in the SoutheastC.The Painting of Territorial Maps by Southeaster Native AmericansD.The War Between Two Native American Civilizations47. The author implies that This World was located____.A. inside the Upper WorldB. inside the Lower WorldC. above the Upper WorldD. between the Upper World and the Lower World48. According to the passage southeastern Native Americanscompared This Worldto the ____.A. WatersB. skyC. an animalD. an island49. According to the passage, southeastern native Americans associated red with all of the following EXCEPT _____.A. fireB. troubleC. bloodD. success50. The shape of This World is closest to that of which of the following?A. A circle.B. A triangle.C. A Square.D. A cube.III.

Cloze (10 points)Directions:Decide which of the choices given below would correctly complete the passage if inserted in the corresponding blanks. Select the correctchoice for each blank.Most parents, I suppose, have had the experience of reading a bedtime story to their children. And they must have 81 how difficult it is to write a 82 children’s book. Either the author has aimed too 83 , so that the children can’t follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 84 the story seems to be talking to the readers.The best c hildren’s books are 85 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 86 who hears the story and the adult who 87 it.Unfortunately, there are in fact 88 books like this, 89 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 90 to solve.This may be why many of books regarded as 91 of children’s literature were in fact written for 92 . Alice’s Adventure in Wonderland is perhaps the most 93 of this.Children, left for themselves, often 94 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or 95 and he will 96 willinglychoose the books written in an imaginative way, or have a look at most children’s comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the 97 of teachers and right-thinking parents.Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into 98 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so99 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 100 books. So I suppose we’ll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.81.

北京成人本科英语真题2007年11月Part ⅠReading ComprehensionDirections: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements, For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point: work is helpful to health,Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (76) Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. By work people come into with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill. Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(77) From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1. The underlined word "average" in Paragraph 1 means ______.A.healthyzyC.ordinaryD.poor答案：C这道题属于词汇细节题，考查在句子语境中对词汇的理解。

Whenever we turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine, we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type of orange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us to notice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us want what they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed to advertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisements everywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part of our everyday lives. But do that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that the special power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attention to it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising company for many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected by them. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lower our defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in and stored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that the effects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of time they have a powerful effect on the masses.A market analyst says that all advertising, no matter how innocent, is misleading in some way.When asked about the power of advertising in research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almost everyone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of ads they see every day affect them.【】51. Ads exist to make people want .A. a new type of orange juiceB. X-brand jeansC. to watch the latest filmD. what they advertise【】52. The more we see ads, the less we .A. pay attention to themB. feel tired of themC. neglect themD. put up with them【】53. Although we may think we are not affected by them, Dr. Krugman believes that advertisements affect .A. all of usB. most of usC. some of usD. a few individuals【】54. Dr. Krugman believes that when we stop noticing ads, we begin to .A. like themB. be on guard against themC. accept themD. dislike them【】55. When asked about the power of ads, most people agree that ads are ineffective on .A. individualsB. massesC. othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to look upon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that I made this important discovery: giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need not worry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an idea for improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I step in and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made about giving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this world without getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpected form. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important special delivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrote the postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a post office box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window that there were no boxes left, and that my name would have to go on a long waiting list. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He had overheard our conversation. “Wasn’t it you that wrote us that letter a year ago about delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “Well, you certainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make one for you. You don’t know what a letter like that means to us. We usually get nothing but complaints.”【】56. From the passage, we understand that .A.the author did not understand the importance of giving until hewas in late thirtiesB.the author was like most people who were mostly receiversrather than giversC.the author received the same education as most people duringhis childhoodD.the author liked most people as they looked upon life as aprocess of getting【】57. According to the author .A.giving means you will lack moneyB.the excitement of giving can bring you moneyC.you don’t have to be rich in order to giveD.when you give away money, you will be rich【】58.The author wrote a note of appreciation to the post office because.A. he knew what such a note would mean to the post office.B. he had discovered giving-away made life all the more exciting.C.he believed he would get something back by doing so.D.the postman delivered an important letter in time.【】59. When the author needed a post office box, .A.he had to put his name on a waiting listB.he wrote the postmaster a note of appreciationC.many people had applied for post-office boxes before himD.he asked the postmaster to make one for him【】60. In reply to the postmaster’s question, the author said .A.it was the special deliveryB.it was the post-office boxC.it was the note of appreciation he wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one of life’s essentials. Eating breakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all the efforts, they still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest years for which figures are available, the number of people who didn’t have breakfast increased by 33 percent―from 8.8 million to 11.7 million―according to the Chicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about not eating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the last few years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.”Said Arnold E.Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London. “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of the recent work involves children, not adults. “T he literature,”says one researcher, Dr. Ernesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.【】61. The passage is mainly concerned with .A. a study of the Chicago-based Market Research CorporationB.one of life’s essentialstest figures of people who don’t eat breakfastD.breakfast and human health【】62. For those who do not take breakfast, the good news is that .A.several studies have been done in the past few yearsB.not eating breakfast does no harm to one’s healthC.adults have especially made studies in this fieldD.eating little in the morning may be good for health【】63. In the third paragraph, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.” means .A.anyone without breakfast does improve his performanceB.not giving people breakfast improves performanceC.people having breakfast do improve their performanceD.having breakfast does not improve performance, either【】64. The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to .A.stories about breakfastB.written works on a particular subjectC.any printed materialsD.the modern novels of American【】65. What is implied but not stated by the author is that .A.not eating breakfast might affect the health of childrenB.breakfast does not affect performanceC.Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition inLondonD.People who don’t eat breakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of people do their jobs more effectively. For example, they can help managers decide on a future course of action, and they can then help with the follow-up checks on performance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate and timely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do a better job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not need to spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggered report if actural performance varies from what was planned. The time saved in controlling may allow managers to give more attention to employees’ concerns, and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气)。

Each passage is followed by a number of questions for comprehension. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.Passage OneSea horses are unusual animals. The female sea horses lay the eggs, but unlike other creatures, it's the males that give birth to the young.Male sea horses have a fold of skin on their bellies that forms a pocket, called a brood pouch (育儿袋) . During the breeding season, the sea horse's pouch swells to receive eggs. A female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time in the pouch. Then she swims off, leaving her male partner to care for the developing eggs and give birth to young sea horses. The female will return every day to check on her mate and the eggs, but she doesn't stay long, nor does she take part in the birth.It takes about six weeks for the eggs in the male's pouch to develop. During this time the male avoids open water and hides in sea grass. His big pouch makes it difficult for him to swim, so the male often uses his tail to grasp a piece of sea grass. Firmly gripping the grass, he will stay perfectly still for hours or even days. The male sea horse will change his color to blend with his surroundings and avoid being seen by eaters who will try to eat him or poke holes in his pouch to get the eggs.The eggs hatch inside the male's pouch. When the babies begin moving around, the male sea horse knows it's time for them to be born. He grabs a sea grass stem with his tail and begins rocking, bending his body back and forth. This causes the opening to enlarge until it is wide enough for the first baby sea horse to shoot out. The father sea horse continues rocking, bending, and stretching his body so that the rest of the babies can be born. Sometimes he has to press his pouch against a rock or some stiff seaweed to force the young out.Usually it takes two days for the father sea horse to give birth to all his young. He is very tired when it's over.36. Which fact does the author want you to remember most?A. Baby sea horses are born in groups of five or more.B. The female sea horse lays up to 200 eggs at a time.C. The male sea horse gives birth to the young.D. The female will return every day to check on the eggs.37. What important part does the female sea horse play in having babies?A. Laying the eggs.B. Checking the eggs.C. Protecting the eggs.D. Hatching the eggs.38. To protect himself and his eggs, the male sea horse does all the following EXCEPT .A. changing his colorB. gripping a piece of grassC. staying motionlessD. enlarging his pouch39. The author suggests when sea horse babies are ready to be born .A. the male sea horse seems very happyB. it is difficult for them to come outC. the female sea horse joins the maleD. they need large space in the pouch40. What can you learn from the article about giving birth to baby sea horses?A. It is most dangerous for the female.B. It happens only once every ten years.C. It is hard work for the male.D. It happens only in the deepest part of the ocean.Passage TwoA scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.If an economist was asked which of the three groups borrow most ---people with rising incomes, stable incomes or declining incomes ---he would probably answer: those with declining income. Actually, in the years 1947-1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional ideas about earning and spending are not always reliable.Another traditional idea is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will hurry to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The typical attitude was expressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices, "In a few months," she said, "we'll have to pay more for meat and milk; we'll have less to spend on other things." Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. Furthermore, the rise in prices that has already taken place may arouse resentment and buyer's resistance may be aroused. This is shown by the following typical comment: "I just don't pay these prices; they are too high."The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America. Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, produced results that were more in agreement with traditional ideas about saving and spending patterns. The condition most conducive (有助于) to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, and they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of keeping stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.41. It can be inferred that to predict how consumers will spend their money, one should .A. rely on traditional approachesB. try to encourage or discourage consumersC. carry out investigationsD. do researches in a laboratory first42. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?A. Consumers' behavior in time of price increase.B. Price increase stimulates people to hasten to buy things.C. What consumers normally buy when they expect prices to go up?D. Consumers' attitude towards price change.43. According to the survey, if Englishmen expect prices to go up, they will .A. spend lessB. buy moreC. buy only what they needD. postpone buying44. From the results of the surveys, the writer concludes that .A. maintaining stable prices is a correct business policyB. the saving and spending patterns in Great Britain are better than those in AmericaC. the consumers always expect prices to remain stableD. consumers should adapt to the change of prices45. Which of the following statements is always TRUE according to the surveys mentioned in the passage?A. Consumers will put off buying things if they expect price to decrease.B. Consumer behavior is influenced by the price condition.C. Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increase.D. Traditional ideas about earning and spending are reliable.Passage ThreeThe youthful addiction to mobile phones that dismays so many parents and teachers could be providing a big benefit that "mobiles" could be turning teenagers away from tobacco.Smoking has declined among British teenagers from 30% in 1996 to 23% in 1999 while ownership of the ubiquitous ( 到处存在的) mobile phones among 15-17-year-olds rose rapidly to 70% by August 2000.Adults say their mobile phones are the only way they can keep in touch with work, family and friends. But for teenagers the pocket-sized devices are smart, stylish and adult. And like cigarettes, they are important in socializing. Pre-paid cards for mobiles a popular alternative to monthly bills could be consuming teens' pocket money that might otherwise go for cigarettes. Anne Charlton, professor of the University of Manchester, has even noted a similarity between mobile marketing and tobacco campaigns. "Mobile phones are marketed in a similar way to cigarettes with a sales pitch that focuses on self-image, identity and confidence," she said in a statement. Clive Bates and Anne Charlton stressed that at this stage it is only a hypothesis (假设) . But they believe it is a plausible one.The health hazards of smoking are well documented but the potential risks of using a mobile phone are still uncertain. Some researchers have suggested that they can cause brain damage and that the young are particularly easy to be affected. "With smoking you have a very visible body count. In the UK there are about 120,000 ---in the world there are about four million deaths a year from smoking-related diseases," Bates said.46. By "mobiles could be turning teenagers away from tobacco" in Paragraph 1, the author means ______.A. teenagers are probably more addicted to mobile phones than smokingB. teenagers do not carry tobacco with them when they travel by carC. teenagers usually smoke a lot when they drive automobilesD. teenagers have to stop smoking when they use their mobile phones47. The ownership of mobile phones among teenagers went up rapidly mainly because .A. teenagers know nothing about the danger of using mobile phonesB. mobile phones are getting more important in socializingC. teenagers have realized the danger of smokingD. mobile phones are much cheaper than they used to be48. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Mobile phones and cigarettes are marketed in completely different ways.B. The declining of smoking and the rising of mobiles are just a coincidence.C. Adults and teenagers think differently about mobile phones.D. Many parents and teachers welcome the youthful addiction to mobile phones.49. The underlined word “plausible” in Paragraph 3 most probably means .A. strangeB. unreasonableC. unbelievableD. reasonable50. Concerning the disadvantages of using mobile phones, the author implies that .A. people know little about the health hazards of mobiles nowB. mobiles have fewer health hazards than smoking doesC. people are certain about the health hazards of mobilesD. mobiles are a big waste of money for teenagers at schoolPassage FourA 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. A child may think he is stupid because he does not understand how to make the most of his mental faculties, or he may accept another person's mistaken estimate of his ability. Older people may be handicapped by the mistaken belief that they are incapable of learning anything new because of their age.A person who believes that he is incapable will not make a real effort, because he feels that it would be useless. He won't go at a job with the confidence necessary for success. He is therefore likely to fail, and the failure will strengthen his belief in his incompetence.Alfred Adler, a famous doctor, 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 order that they would not expect too much of him. In this way, they too developed the idea, "Isn't it too bad that Alfred can't do arithmetic?" 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 Adler succeeded in solving a problem which none of the other students had been able to solve. This gave him confidence. He rejected the idea that he couldn't do arithmetic and was determined to show them that he could. 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 extraordinarily 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.51. According to the passage, which statement is NOT true?A. A child may accept another person's underestimate of his ability.B. A child may think he is too young to make the most of his mental faculties.C. A person may have the idea that he is incapable of doing good work.D. Some old people don't believe that they are capable of learning anything new.52. A person who believes in his incompetence will .A. make no real effortsB. fail to go at a jobC. show a complete lack of confidenceD. all of the above53. As a boy, Alfred Adler was poor at arithmetic because .A. he lost his self-confidenceB. he was mentally retardedC. his teacher had no confidence in herselfD. his parents expected too much of him54. Which of the following is the most important factor to Adler’s success?A. Spirit and experience.B. Interest.C. Confidence and determination.D. Purpose and knowledge.55. Adler’s experience made him realize that .A. people are not as capable as they thinkB. lack of ability results in lack of determinationC. lack of knowledge leads to failureD. people can be more capable than they think机密*启用前2007年天津市高等院校“高职升本科”招生统一考试英 语 第Ⅱ卷(非选择题共55分)注意事项：1．答第Ⅱ卷前，考生须将密封线内的项目填写清楚。

Wheneverwe turn on the television, listen to the radio or open a newspaper or magazine,we are bombarded with advertisements. They invite us to try a new type oforange juice, wear X-brand jeans or watch the latest film. They beg us tonotice the difference and discover the advantages. They exist to make us wantwhat they are selling.Strangely, the more we are exposed toadvertising, the less we notice it. We get so used to seeing advertisementseverywhere that they become largely invisible, as if they were another part ofour everyday lives. But does that mean that we are no longer affected by them?One advertising expert believes that thespecial power of advertising lies in the fact that we do not pay much attentionto it. Dr. Krugman, who was head of research for a major advertising companyfor many years, says that the less we notice ads, the more we are affected bythem. D. Krugman believe that when we stop noticing advertisements, we lowerour defenses, allowing the messages of the advertisements to be taken in andstored, ready to be triggered into action at the right moment. He says that theeffects of advertising on the individual are small, but over a period of timethey have a powerful effect on the masses.When asked about the power of advertisingin research surveys, most people agree that it works, but not on them. Almosteveryone believes that they have complete control over how thousands of adsthey see every day affect them.51. Ads exist to make people want ________ .A. a new type of orangejuiceB. X-brand jeansC. to watchthe latest filmD. what they advertise52. The more we see ads, the less we ________ .A. pay attention tothemB. feel tired of theC.neglect themD. put upwith them53.

When asked about the power of ads, mostpeople agree that ads are ineffective on ________ .A.individualsB. massesC.othersD. themPassage 2Like most people, I was brought up to lookupon life as a process of getting. It was not until in my late thirties that Imade this important discovery giving away makes life so much more exciting. You need notworry if you lack money. This is how I experimented with giving away. If an ideafor improving the window display of a neighborhood store flashes to me, I stepin and make the suggestion to the storekeeper. One discovery I made aboutgiving away is that it is almost impossible to give away anything in this worldwithout getting something back, though the return often comes in an unexpectedform. One Sunday morning the local post office delivered an important specialdelivery letter to my home, though it was addressed to me at my office. I wrotethe postmaster a note of appreciation. More than a year later I needed a postoffice box for a new business I was starting. I was told at the window thatthere were no boxes left, and that myname would have to go on a long waitinglist. As I was about to leave, the postmaster appeared in the doorway. He hadoverheard our conversation. “Wasn't it you that wrote us that letter a year agoabout delivering a special delivery to your home?” I said yes. “ Well, youcertainly are going to have a box in this post office if we have to make onefor you. You don't know what a letter like that means to us. We usually getnothing but complaints.”56. From the passage, we understand that________ .A. the author did not understand theimportance of giving until he was in late thirtiesB. the author was like most peoplewho were mostly receivers rather than giversC. the author received the sameeducation as most people during his childhoodD. the author liked most people asthey looked upon life as a process of getting57. According to the author ________.A. giving means you will lack moneyB. the excitement of giving canbring you moneyC. you don't have to be rich inorder to giveD. when you give away money, youwill be rich58. The author wrote a note of appreciationto the post office because ________ .A. he knew what such a note wouldmean to the post office.B. he had discovered giving-awaymade life all the more exciting.C. he believed he would getsomething back by doing so.D. the postman delivered an importantletter in time.59. When the author needed a post officebox, ________ .A. he had to put his name on awaiting listB. he wrote the postmaster a note ofappreciationC. many people had applied forpost-office boxes before himD. he asked the postmaster to makeone for him60. In reply to the postmaster's question,the author said ________ .A. it was the specialdeliveryB. it was the post-office boxC. it was the note of appreciationhe wroteD.it was he who wrote him a letter a year agoPassage 3Generations of Americans have been broughtup to believe that a good breakfast is one of life's essentials. Eatingbreakfast at the start of the day, we have all been told, is as necessary asputting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of foodfirst thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure. So despite all theefforts, the still take no breakfast. Between 1977 and 1983, the latest yearsfor which figures are available, the number of people who didn't have breakfastincreased by 33 percent-from 8.8 million to 11.7 million-according to theChicago-based Market Research Corporation of America.For those who feel pain or guilt about noteating breakfast, however, there is some good news. Several studies in the lastfew years indicate that, for adults especially, there may be nothing wrong withomitting breakfast. “Going without breakfast does not affect performance.” saidA mold E. Bender, the former professor of nutrition at Queen Elizabeth Collegein London, “nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast tobetter health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate, and most of therecent work involves children, not adults. “The literature,” says one researcher,Dr. Emesto Pollitt at the University of Texas, “is poor”.61. The passage is mainly concernedwith ________ .A. a study of theChicago-based Market Research CorporatioB. one of life's essentialsC. latest figures of peoplewho don't eat breakfastD. breakfast and human health62. For those who do not take breakfast,the good news is that ________ .A. several studies have beendone in the past few yearsB. not eating breakfast does no harm toone's healthC. adults have especially made studies inthis fieldD. Eating little in the morning may be good forhealth63. In the third paragraph, “nor doesgiving people breakfast improve performance,” means ________ .A. anyone without breakfastdoes improve his performanceB. not giving people breakfastimproves performanceC. people having breakfast do improvetheir performanceD. having breakfast does not improve performance,either64. The word “literature” in the lastsentence refers to ________ .A. stories aboutbreakfastB. written works on a particular subjectC. any printedmaterialsD. the modern novels of American65. What is implied but not stated by theauthor is that ________ .A. not eating breakfast mightaffect the health of childrenB. breakfast does not affectperformanceC. Professor Bender oncetaught college courses in nutrition in LondonD. People who don't eatbreakfast have increasedPassage 4Each day, computers help millions of peopledo their jobs more effectively. For example, they canhelp managers decide on afuture course of action, and they can then help with the follow up checks onperformance to see if planned goals are being achieved. By using accurate andtimely facts supplied by data base management software, a manager can do abetter job of identifying problems and opportunities. And managers may not needto spend as much time in controlling when a computer can respond with a triggeredreport if actual performance varies from what was planned. The time saved incontrolling may allow managers to give more attention to employees' concerns,and this, in turn, may result in improved morale(士气).But employment benefits certainly aren't restrictedto managers. Healthcare researchers and other scientists also use computers toconduct research into complex problem areas that couldn't otherwise be wyers use online legal data banks to locate precedent(先前的) cases inorder to serve clients better. Salespeople can receive more timely informationabout products in stock, can promise customers that their sales orders will behandled promptly, and can thus improve their sales performance because of thecomputer system. And the job duties of some office and factory workers havechanged from routine, repetitive operations to more varied and appealing tasksthrough computer usage. For example, office workers who understand textprocessing, computing, and data communication usually have vital roles and aregiven critical office functions to perform.66. Which of the following examples showsthe controlling function of a computer?A. Helping managers decide ona future course of actionB. Helping managers check ifplanned goals are reachedC. Helping managers save timein writing a reportD. Helping managers design aspreadsheet package67. Employees may have better morale if________ .A. they have more time torestB. a computer is used in their workC. the manager spends moretime with themD. themanagers pay more attention to them68. Which of the following is the mostessential to a successful businessman?A. He can use computers in hiswork.B. He can handle orders promptly.C. He can get timelyinformation.D.
