宁波理工外语平台第三学期阅读答案(第二波)

1Time was---20 or 30 years ago---when Mom and kids would go to a studio and sit, and the idealized result would be framed and given to Dad, who would take it to the office and display it for visitors to admire. Often, I'm sure, said photo really did enable the working man to contemplate his loved ones between appointments, but it served other purposes as well. The photo was an emblem, an asset, a hanging prize. Behold, it said; I am not only a lawyer or corporate titan, I am a husband and father. It clarified that work and family occupied two distinct realms, and testified that the owner had achieved success in both.Now, the opposite is true. On one level, to be sure, random unframed photos are just an expression of the more casual (and cramped) nature of the modern so-called office. For many of us, to hang a framed formal portrait of our family would not only look out of place; its weight alone would topple our cubicle wall, knocking over the next cubicle and triggering a disastrous domino effect. More than that, though, today's photos are an expression of the conflicted feelings of the modern office worker. Rather than relegating the family to a different realm, they are an attempt to bring the two realms closer, to admit family into the office. They are attempts to make us feel that we are not separate fromour kids; that we are still with them, and they with us, vivid, changeable, in the flesh. They are expressions of pride, yes, and love, yes, but also of guilt and longing. So powerful are the emotions roused that a friend of mine, upon returning to work after having her first child, found that she couldn't bring any photos; they made the absence from her son too painful.Not everything has changed. Formal photos still hang in uneasy coexistence with informal ones, in women's offices and in men's. Sociologist Arlie Hochschild spent time at a company she refers to, in her book The Time Bind, as "Amerco." There, she noted, it was the lower-ranking women who peppered their desks with intimate family snapshots.For these women, she posits, the photos sent a message： I may not be powerful here, but there's a place, home, where I am. The more high-up the woman, the less she indulged in these snapshots, as if they might call her commitment into question. Instead, executive women resorted to the traditional framed trophy photo. I don't entirely buy this distinction -- in my workplace, women at all levels do the montage thing, as do men -- but I do remember being in the office of a busy lawyer and seeing a framed photo of her and her kids on the beach, and it was facing me, not her, and I wondered, a little, if it was saying： I don't work as much as it seems!at the same time that family photos testify to what we have, they also testify to what we don't. What we don't have, while we're working, is the very thing they display： the spontaneous moments, the golden unlimited hours. In keeping these snapshots at our desk we are like pets, really, that in their master's absence seek out his sweater to lie upon. Absent our family, the best we can do is bask in its representation, create the illusion that we can sense our kids, feel them, hear their laughter.A . work commitmentB . family achievementC . personal freedomD . guilt正确答案:family achievement2. According to the passage, today‟s office photos differ from photos of 20 or 30 years ago in that_______A . they are more formalB . they mainly serve a decorative purposeC . they bridge work and familyD . they help relieve the stress of workplace正确答案:they bridge work and familyA . lower-ranking women generally do not have trophy photos in officeB . some executive women have trophy photos in their officeC . high-up women don‟t bring snapshots to officeD . lower-ranking women use family snapshots to show their power at home正确答案:high-up women don‟t bring snapshots to officeA . positive elements of lifeB . family life they miss at workC . their pride in their achievementsD . their ranking in the office正确答案:family life they miss at workA . completely the same in functionB . almost identical in functionC . share some similarities in functionD . totally different in function正确答案:share some similarities in function2For centuries in Spain and Latin America, heading home for lunch and a snooze with the family was something like a national right, but with global capitalism standardizing work hours, this idyllic habits is fast becoming an endangered pleasure. Ironically, all this is happening just as researchers are beginning to note the health benefits of the afternoon nap.According to a nationwide survey, less than 25 percent of Spaniards still enjoy siestas (午休，午睡). And like Spain, much of Latin America has adopted Americanized work schedules, too, with shortened lunch times and more rigid work hours. Last year the Mexican government passed a law limiting lunch breaks to one hour and requiring itsemployees to work their eight-hour shift between 7 a.m and 6 a.m. Before the mandate (指令，训令), workers would break up the shift --- going home midday for a long break with the family and returning to work until about 9 or 10 p.m. The idea of siesta is changing in Greece, Italy and Portugal, too, as they rush to join their more “industrious” counterparts in the global market.Most Americans I know covet sleep, but the idea of taking nap mid-afternoon equates with laziness, unemployment and general sneakiness. Yet according to a Nation Sleep Survey poll, 65 percent of adults do not get enough sleep. Numerous scientific studies document the benefits of nap taking, including one 1997 study o the deleterious (有害的) effects deprivation in the journal internal Medicine. The researchers found that fatigue harms not only marital and social relations but worker productivity.According to Mark Rosekind, a former NASA scientist and founder of Solutions in Cupertino, Calif., which educates businesses about the advantages of sanctioning (赞许) naps, we‟re biologically programmed to get sleep between 3 and 5 p.m and 3 and 5 a.m our internal timekeeper --- called the circadian clock --- operates on a 24-hour rotation and ever y 12 hours there‟s a dip. In accordance with these natural sleep rhythms, Rosekind recommends that naps be either for 40 minutes or for two hours. Latin American counties, asserts Rosekind, have it right all long. They‟re been in sync with (与…同步) their clo cks; we haven‟t.Since most of the world is sleep-deprived, getting well under the recommended eight hours a night (adults get an average of 6.5 hours nightly), we usually operate on a kind of idle midday. Naps are even more useful now that most of us forfeit (失去) sleep because of insane work schedules, longer commute times and stress. In a study published last April, Brazilian medical researchers noted that blood pressure and arterial blood pressure dropped during a siesta.A . the standardizing of work hoursB . the growth of global capitalismC . the habit of nappingD . the decline of the siesta tradition正确答案:the decline of the siesta traditionA . get home from work much later than in the pastB . finish the workday earlier than in the pastC . work fewer hours than in the pastD . work more reasonable hours than in the past正确答案:finish the workday earlier than in the pastA . lackB . valueC . needD . desire正确答案:desireA . nap-taking will put their jobs at risksB . nap-taking is a sign of lazinessC . they get plenty of sleepD . Spanish culture is inefficient正确答案:nap-taking is a sign of lazinessA . the siesta tradition and its health benefitsB . the negative effects of sleep-deprivation on health and worker productivityC . the importance of the siesta tradition in Spain and Latin AmericaD . the health benefits of afternoon naps正确答案:the siesta tradition and its health benefits3Perhaps most challenging is the set of skills required to produce a written assignment, the most common means by which student learning is evaluated. This demands a critical evaluation of a potentially large amount of required reading.The reading required to perform writing tasks required a set of effective strategies with which many students may be unfamiliar. The texts themselves may vary greatly in both content and style from subject to but all required the same critical analysis of conceptually complicated material.Similarly, the experience of speaking before an audience will almost certainly be a new experience for most undergraduates. Again, students are expected to critically evaluate issues and to contribute to the discussion or analysis. Participation in these discussions often forms part of a student‟s course assessment and those who fail to express themselves may gain lower grades.Many students find the experience of attending university lecture to be a confusing and frustrating experience. The lecture speaks for one or two hours, perhaps illustrating the talk with slides, writing up important information on the blackboard, distributing reading material and giving out assignments. The new student sees the other students continuously writing on notebooks and wonders what to write. Very often the student leaves the lecture with notes which do not catch the main points and which become hard even for the student himself to understand.Most institutions provide courses which assist new students to develop the skills they need to be effective listeners and note-takers. If these are unavailable there are many useful study-skills guides which enable learners to practice these skills independently. In all cases it is important to tackle the problem before actually starting your studies. If you leave it until after your course begins, you may find that you are not able to study and to learn how to study at the same time.It is important to acknowledge that most students have difficulty in acquiring the languageskills required in college study.

Women pilfer (小偷小摸)souvenirs (纪念品) from their hotel rooms as men raid the bars in the refrigerators in their rooms, the hotel study found. It discovered that women are more likely to take a souvenir from their hotel room than men, and a man, more often than a woman, will have the biggest mini-bar bill for drinks used in their rooms.Men leave cleaner hotel rooms---men were voted tidier travelers than women by staff (员工)and management at the international chain of hotels--- but they make noisier guests, usually caused by watching the television with the sound turned loudly.It is almost always the male guest who is caught naked (赤裸的)outside his room, often through mistaking the door to the hallway for the one to the bathroom.It found the most popular time for dinner was 7 p.m. ---7：30 p.m., although men were likely to dine in the restaurant while women preferred room service. A Caesar salad was the most popular choice of all women diners surveyed, while men preferred to choose a steak if eating in their room.But in two matters, both sexes were on an equal footing： men and women were equally forthright (直截了当的)when it came to asking for an upgrade (上升) to a better room, and it is almost standard business practice these days for both men and women on business trips to be carrying a laptop computer with them.A . dine in hotel restaurantsB . eat the things in the refrigerators in hotel roomsC . take home some decorative things from hotel rooms as souvenirsD . keep hotel rooms tidy正确答案:take home some decorative things from hotel rooms as souvenirsA . spend more on drink consumption in hotel roomsB . make hotel rooms dirtyC . dine in hotel roomsD . require a move to a better room正确答案:spend more on drink consumption in hotel roomsA . dining in the restaurantB . bringing a laptop computerC . asking for room servicesD . choosing the food for dinner正确答案:bringing a laptop computerA . not mentioned in the passageB . to show that women are preferable guests for a hotel to menC . to show that both men and women have some interesting hotel habitsD . to show that men are preferable guests for a hotel to women正确答案:not mentioned in the passage5Today, there are many ways open to those who wish to continue their education. However, nearly all require some break in one‟s career in order to attend school full time. Part-time education, that is, attending school at night or for one weekend a month, tends to drag the process out over time and puts the completion of a degree program out of reach of many people. Additionally, such programs require a fixed time commitment which can also impact negatively on one‟s career and family time.Of the many approaches to teaching and learning, however, perhaps the most flexible and accommodating is that called distance learning.Distance learning is an educational method, which allows the students the flexibility to study at his or her own pace to achieve the academic goals, which are so necessary in today…s world. The time required to study many be set aside at the student‟s convenience with due regard to all life…s other requirements. Additionally, the student may enroll in distance learning courses from virtually any place in the world, while continuing to pursue their chosen career. Tutorial assistance may be available via regular airmail, telephone, facsimile machine, teleconferencing and over the Internet.Good distance learning programs are characterized by the inclusion of a subject evaluation tool with every subject. This precludes the requirement for a student to travel away from home to take a test. Another characteristic of a good distance-learning program is the equivalence of the distance-learning course with the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus. The resultant diploma or degree should also be the same whether distance learning or on-campus study is employed. The individuality of the professor/student relationship is another characteristic of a good distance-learning program. In the final analysis, a good distance learning program has a place not only for the individual students but also the corporation or business that wants to work in partnership with their employees for the educational benefit, professional development, and business growth of the organization. Sponsoringdistance learning programs for their employees gives the business the advantage of retaining career-minded people while contributing to their personal and professional growth through education.1. According to the passage， which of the following is NOT a disadvantage of part-time education?A . It tends to last too long for many people to complete a degree program.B . It affects one…s career.C . It gives the student less time to share with the family.D . It requires some break in one…s career.正确答案:It requi res some break in one…s career.A . They can pursue their chosen career while studying.B . Their tutorial assistance comes through regular airmail, telephone, facsimile machine, etc.C . The students may choose his or her own pace.D . The students may study at any time to his or her convenience.正确答案:Their tutorial assistance comes through regular airmail, telephone, facsimile machine, etc.A . Further training of employees and business growth.B . Recruitment of more talented people.C . Better cooperation with universities.D . Good image of the business.正确答案:Further training of employees and business growth.A . Higher salary.B . Good relationship with the employer.C . Professional growth.D . Good impression on the employer.正确答案:Professional growth.A . It includes a subject evaluation tool with every subject.B . Its course uses the same subject materials as those students taking the course on the home campus.C . A distance-learning program has a place only for students.D . The relationship of the professor/student is characterized by individuality.正确答案: A distance-learning program has a place only for students.。

大学英语四级(阅读)模拟试卷3(题后含答案及解析)

大学英语四级（阅读）模拟试卷3(题后含答案及解析) 题型有： 4. Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth)Part IV Reading Comprehension (Reading in Depth) (25 minutes)Section BDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. 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.Normally 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 thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two 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 his 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 a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for 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 the 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 later in his career.1．Normally a student would attend at least______classes each week.A．36B．20C．12D．15正确答案：C解析：由文章第1段可知，每个学生每学期要上4到5门课，每门课每周有3节，由此可知学生每周要上12一15节课，因此一个学生每个星期至少要上12节课．故选C。

浙江大学宁波理工学院外语平台（三）阅读答案

浙江大学宁波理工学院外语平台（三）阅读答案Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it's painful? This might be called laziness, but Dr. Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved that everyone has a daily energy cycle. During the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're "hot". That's try. The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comes during the noon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar monologues as: Get up John! You'll be late for work again! The possible explanation to be trouble is that John is at his temperature and energy peak in the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean, and which cycle each member of the family has. You can't change your energy cycle, but you can learn to make your life fit it better. Habit can help. Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up late than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. This won't change your cycle, but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.1. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ______.A . he refuses to follow his own energy cycleB . he is not sure when his energy is lowC . he is a lazy personD . he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening正确答案:he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening题目详解:所谓的“懒惰”实际上是因为这个人的能量在夜里已经达到顶峰。

As a human being you may have the choice of three basic attitudes towards life. You may treat life with thephilosophy (哲学) of the vegetable, in which case your life will include being born, eating, drinking, sleeping, marrying, growing old and dying.The second basic attitude is to look at life as if it were a business. A great many so-called successful men and women believe that life is a business. If you believe so, your first question of life, naturally, is " What do I get out of it? " " How much is this worth to me?" In a word, based on this attitude, happiness becomes a matter of successful competition. The great majority of human beings today look at life as if it were a business.The third attitude toward life is the way of the artist. Here the basic philosophy is "What can I put into it?". They value cooperation and contribution. This point of view has been proved by history; for history remembers best those who have contributed most richly to the interests of their fellow-men. The more we investigate(调查),the more we become certain that the artistic attitude is the only one which goes with human happiness.1. From the passage we know people who take the second life attitude ________.A. are mostly businessmenB. think of getting the interests (利益) firstC. find their happiness from hard workD. take competition as their whole life2. People who are best remembered by history are probablyA. those living on vegetablesB. successful menC. artistsD. businessmen3.

was the one field of awareness about which humans had anything more than the vaguest of insights. It is impossible to know today just what our Stone Age ancestors knew about plants, but from what we can observe of preindustrial societies that still exist, a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient. This is logical. Plants are the basis of the food pyramid for all living things, even for other plants. They have always been enormously important to the welfare of people, not only for food, but also for clothing, weapons, tools, dyes, medicines, shelter, and a great many other purposes. Tribes living today in the jungles of the Amazon recognize literally hundreds of plants and know many properties of each. To them botany, as such, has no name and is probably not even recognized as a special branch of "knowledge" at all. Unfortunately, the more industrialized we become the farther away we move from direct contact with plants, and the less distinct our knowledge of botany grows. Yet everyone comes unconsciously on an amazing amount of botanical knowledge, and few people will fail to recognize a rose, an apple, or an orchid. When our Neolithic（新石器时代）ancestors, living in the middle East about 10,000 yearsago, discovered that certain grasses could be harvested and their seeds planted for richer yields the next season, the first great step in a new association of plants and humans was taken. Grains were discovered and from them flowed the marvel of agriculture: cultivated crops. From then on, humans would increasingly take their living from the controlled production of a few plants, rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild---and the accumulated knowledge of tens of thousands of years of experience and intimacy with plants in the wild would begin to fade away.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. Which of the following assumptions about early humans is expressed in the passage? A . They probably had a detailed learning of plants. B . They enjoyed the study of welfare. C . They attached much importance to their property. D . They thought that cultivating crops were not important. 正确答案:They probably had a detailed learning of plants. 题目详解:根据问题中…assu mptions about early humans is expressed‟的提示，从第1 段的第3 句中…a detailed learning of plants and their properties must be extremely ancient‟提供的信息判断，选项中的"Theyprobably had a detailed learning of plants" 符合题意。

2. According to the passage, why has general knowledge of botany begun to fade? A . Botany is not considered as a special branch of science. B . Direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased. C . People find it difficult to know the names of new plants. D . Plants are not longer valued as a useful resource. 正确答案:Direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased. 题目详解:依据问题中" general knowledge of botany begun to fade "的提示，从最后一段文章的最后一句中"rather than getting a little here and a little there from many varieties that grew wild"中提供的信息判断，选项中的"Direct contact with a variety of plants has decreased"符合题意。

3. What does the sentence "This is logical" In Para 1, line 6 mean? A . It is hard to determine the extent of our ancestor's knowledge of plants. B . It is reasonable to assume that our ancestors behaved very much like people in pre-industrial. C . Human learning of plants is very detailed and well organized. D . It is not astonishing that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants. 正确答案:It is not astonishing that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants. 题目详解:依据问题中"This is logical" In Para 1, line 6"的提示，从第1 段第4 句中的"a detailed learning of plants and their properties"中提供的信息判断，选项中的"It is not astonishing that early humans had a detailed knowledge of plants"符合题意。
