Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For eachof them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with asingle bar through the center of the letter.Passage OneHere's a familiar story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a furry, four-legged friend scratching at your feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle（爱抚）chemical.The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding. Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left behind by the humans.Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change. They became more loyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bond with each other. These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now know as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their environment.This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them. And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytocin?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C. It is in the human gene.D. It is good for health.12. When we look deeply into a dog's eyes, the levels of our oxytocin ____.A. reduce over timeB. go either up or downC. are on the riseD. remain unchanged13. At the beginning wolves followed humans to ____.A. eat the food left by humansB. guard against large animalsC. take humans for foodD. hunt large animals together14. Over time some wolves turned into dogs ____.A. due to their loyaltyB. due to the changing environmentC. for better survivalD. for better cooperation15. What does Nagasawa9s study aim to do?A. Explore the role of human-wolf partnership.B. Show the characteristics of the cuddle chemical.C. Explain the bond between humans and dogs.D. Understand the evolution of species.Passage TwoRed Nose Day (RND) is a well-known event in the UK. The aim of the day is to raise money for a charity called Comic Relief which helps people in need in Africa and in the UK.Comic Relief was started in 1985 by the scriptwriter Richard Curtis. He wrote the famous films 'Four Weddings and a Funeral' and 'Notting Hill'. Richard's idea to start Comic Relief was as a response to the severe famine in Ethiopia*It's called Red "Nose Day as on this day many people buy a plastic red nose to wear! The money made from selling red noses goes to the charity.Red Nose Day takes place every two years in the spring and is now so well established that many people consider it to be an unofficial. For example, many schools have non-uniform days.The slogan for the last RND was ‘Do Something Funny for Money' and the money that was collected helped to fundprojects in the following areas, treating malaria（疟疾）, education, and mental health. The BBC Red Nose Day program raised £74.3 million! Money-raising events take place all over the country and many schools participate. People also donate money by post, in banks, by phone using a credit card and online.In the evening of Red Nose Day a telethon takes place on the BBC TV channels. It shows on and on a selection of the events of the day, as well as lots of comic sketches and reports of how the money raised will be spent. People also upload videos of local charity events on YouTube and Facebook.So, if you are ever in the UK on Red Nose Day, now you know why you may find normal people wearing red noses and doingsilly things! It's all for a good cause.16. Red Nose Day is ____.A. a traditional holiday in the UKB. a famous event in BritainC. the helping center for poor peopleD. the popular name of a charity17.

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2015.05.09Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)Directions: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.Passage1Questions1to5are based on the following passage:Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life,a new study published Tuesday suggests.The study followed more than3,000babies into adulthood in Brazil.The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）.“Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits,but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits,"says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil,who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health.(76)Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby’s health.This is especially true in poor countries,where water can be contaminated.For instance,a baby given formula in developing countries is14times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed.In the U.S.,some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby’s IQ（智商）by a few points.But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding.Horta says these previous studies didn’t follow children into adulthood to see ifbreast-feeding had long-term effects.So Horta analyzed data collected from3,493volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth.They are now in their30s.First,the researchers gave the subjects IQ tests.Those who were breast-fed for12months or more had IQ test scores that were3.76points higher than those who were breast-fed for less than one month, the team found.When Horta and his colleagues looked at how much education the subjects had gotten and how much money they were making,they also found a clear difference:Those who werebreast-fed the longest stayed in school for about an extra year and had monthly salaries that were about a third higher.1.From the passage,we learn that Horta_______________.A.is from BrazilB.conducts his research in the U.S.C.has30researchers on his teamD.is well-known in developing countries2.Which of the following about those who were breast-fed is NOT mentioned?A.They stayed longer in schoolB.They were happierC.They were smarterD.They made more money3.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Doctors don’t understand the benefits of breast-feeding.B.Horta is concerned with water contamination in poor countries.C.Horta’s research project lasted about30yearsD.Breast-feeding is the only way to improve a baby’s health4.The word contaminated in Paragraph3is closest in meaning to____.A.finishedB.interestedC.clearedD.polluted5.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?A.Researchers Have Pointed Out the Disadvantages of Breast-feedingB.Researchers Have Found Out the Shortcomings of FormulaC.Breast-feeding Improves Chances of SuccessD.Breast-feeding Benefits Both Mother and BabyPassage2Questions6to10are based on the following passage:Maggie Walker was born in1867in Richmond,Virginia.Her mother was once a slave in a rich woman’s house.When Maggie was very young,a thief killed her father.Her family was impoverished,so Maggie's mother started doing laundry in her home.Maggie had to help her. She washed clothes every day,but she continued to go to school.She was a very good student, especially in math.After Maggie graduated from high school,she got a job as a teacher.In1886,she married Armistead Walker.They had two sons and Maggie stayed home to care for them.She also volunteered to help a social organization called the Order of St.Luke.This organization helped African Americans take care of the sick and bury the dead.Maggie Walker loved the work of the organization.The organization believed that African Americans should take care of each other.Over the years,Maggie Walker had more and more responsibilities with the organization.In 1895,she suggested that St.Luke begin a program for young people.(77)This program became very popular with schoolchildren.In1899,Walk became Grand Secretary Treasurer of the St. Luke organization.However,because she was a woman,she received less than half the salary of the man who had the job before her.The Order of St.Luke had a lot of financial difficulties when Walker took over.It had a lot of unpaid bills and only$31.61in the bank.But soon Maggie Walker changed all of that.(78)Her idea was to get new members to join the Organization.In just a few years,it grew from3,400 members to50,000members.The organization bought a$100,000office building and increased its staff to55.Now Walker was ready for her next big step.6.Maggie’s father died____________.A.when she finished high schoolB.before she was bornC.when she was very youngD.after she got married7.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A.Maggie had two children.B.Maggie was once a slave.C.Maggie was good at math.D.Maggie taught for a while.8.Which of the following is TRUE?A.Maggie loved to help other African Americans.B.Maggie was very popular with school teachers.C.Maggie was the founder of the Order of St.Luke.D.Maggie was better paid than men as Grand Secretary Treasurer.9.The word impoverished in Paragraph1is closest in meaning to_______.A.difficultB.richC.famousD.poor10.After Paragraph4,the author will probably talk about Maggie’s__________________cationB.next projectC.payD.childhoodPassage3Questions11to15are based on the following passage:When Bill de Blasio ran for New York City mayor last year,he promised to end a controversial（有争议的）,citywide cell-phone ban（禁令）in public schools,which is not equally enforced in all schools.Now,under his leadership,the city is preparing to end the ban.It will be replaced by a policy that allows phones inside schools but tells students to keep them packed away during class.Many schools have a rule about enforcing the ban that says,“If we don't see it,we don’t know about it.”That means teachers are OK with students bringing in cell phones,as long as they stay out of sight and inside bags and pockets.But at the88city schools with metal detectors,die ban has been strictly enforced.The detectors were installed to keep weapon out of schools，but the scanners（扫描器）can also detect cell phones.So students at these schools must leave their phones at home or pay someone to store it for them.The ban was put into place in2007under mayor Michael Bloomberg.Ending the ban will also likely end an industry that has sprung up near dozens of the schools that enforce the ban. Workers in vans（厢式货车）that resemble food tracks store teens’cell phones and Other devices for a dollar a day,(79)Critics of the ban say cell phones are important safety devices for kids during an emergency.They also say that enforcement of the ban is uneven and discriminatory.Where the ban is enforced,it puts a disadvantage on students who can’t afford to pay to store their phones.Before putting an official end to the cell-phone ban,city education officials are working on creating a new policy.(80)It will include rules about not using the phones during class or to cheat on tests.11.Which of the following is the main idea of the passage?A.New York City will give financial aid to poor students.B.New York City plans to restrict cell phone use in libraries.C.New York City plans to install metal detectors in all public schools.D.New York City will soon end a ban on cell phones in schools.12.Students pay______a day to leave their cell phones in a van parked near their school.A.a dollarsB.two dollarsC.five dollarsD.ten dollars13.Metal detectors were installed in88city schools,mainly to keep_______out of schools.A.cell phonesB.weaponsC.alcoholD.drugs14.The word discriminatory in Paragraph5probably means________.A.necessaryB.toughC.strictD.unfair15.According to the passage,which of the following statements is TRUE?A.After the cell-phone ban is ended,students can use their phones during class.B.The cell-phone ban is equally enforced in all public schools.C.The cell-phone ban was put into place in2008under Mayor Bill de Blasio.D.A phone-storage industry has

201511月1日北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试真题及答案解析
北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试2014年11月1日Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: 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 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Jarden Zinc (锌) Products, a large zinc plant a few miles outside Greeneville, Tennessee, has a special claim. Since 1982, it has been the only supplier of penny blanks for the U.S. Mint (铸币厂). It's a good business for Jarden-since 2000, the company has earned more than $ 800 million. But it may not be a good deal for the U.S.(76) The value of the penny has been dropping for years. In 2006, it began to cost more than a penny to make a penny. It now costs 2 C to produce a 1 C coin. Many countries have stopped using pennies. Is it time for the U.S. to do the same?Jarden and the zinc industry are fighting to keep the penny. Since 2006, Jarden has given $1.2 million to Americans for Common Cents (ACC). The group's mission is to keep the penny in use. Mark Weller is ACC's executive director. He argues that there are three main reasons for keeping the penny: Without it, we would become more reliant on the five-cent coin, which also has problems; charities (慈善机构) that depend on penny drives would not be able to raise as much money; and a 2012 survey shows that 67% of Americans want to keep the penny. (77) Many people surveyed said they feared they would end up paying more for products.Many experts disagree with ACC, They point to the dozens of countries that have gotten rid of their lowest-value coins without raising prices for consumers. And charities don't seem too concerned either.President Barack Obama says the mint could explore using cheaper metals to make pennies. Steel is less expensive than zinc. Pennies are 97.5% zinc and 2.5% copper. But no matter what it is made of, the penny's days may be numbered. Most in-store purchases are now made with credit cards, not cash. Is it time for a change?1. what is the main idea of the passage?A. Many countries are trying to reduce the cost of making coins.B. These days a penny made is a penny wasted.C. There is disagreement over whether the U.S. should stop using pennies.D. Many countries have stopped using pennies.2.The mission of ACC is to ______.A. conduct online surveysB. lower the production costs of the pennyC. raise money for charitiesD. keep the penny in use3. The penny coin is mainly made of _____.A. copperB. steelC. ironD. zinc4. What does the sentence "the penny's days may be numbered" in the last paragraph probably mean?A. The penny may be out of use very soon.B. The value of the penny may rise.C. The penny has a special place in American history.D. The penny is part of American culture.5. According to the passage, which of the following statements is NOT TRUE?A. Jarden is the sole supplier of the zinc the U.S. Mint uses to make the penny.B. The majority of American people are in favor of keeping the penny.C. Many Americans fear that getting rid of the penny would cause prices to rise.D. The U.S. Mint now spends 2.4 cents to make a penny.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Charles Dickens was born in 1812 in Portsmouth, England. He was the second of eight children. His father always had problems with money. When Charles was 12 years old, his father went to prison because he was in debt. Charles had to leave school to help his family. He got a job in a dirty, old factory. Charles Dickens never forgot his difficult childhood. Many of his stories and books were about poor people and their problems.(78) Later, Charles went back to school for two more years. He left school when he was 15 years old to become a newspaper reporter. In 1836, he began to write The Pickwick Papers. It was published as a series and was a huge success. By age 24, Dickens was a prominent writer in both Great Britain and the United States.Many people bought his books, but they also paid to hear him read his stories aloud. Because there was no radio or television, people liked to hear famous writers read in public. Dickens read his works like he was acting in a play. He went on very successful reading tours and earned a lot of money.Dickens was meticulous (过分注意琐事的). Everything had to be just right. When he worked at home, everything had to be in its place. He worked at a desk by a window that always had a vase (花瓶) of flowers and the same ornaments (装饰物) on it. (79) He wrote 2, 000 words a day and he required complete quiet while he wrote. He divided his page into three parts, and on each side he had notes in difficult colors. The main writing was in middle, the story notes were in the right margin, and the chapter notes were in the left margin. He also cared a lot about his appearance.6.

The electronic waster (e-waste) from this constantly growing field is polluting the environment, both here and abroad.Computers contain toxic (有毒的) materials such as lead. Despite the danger of throwing these hazardous materials in a landfill (垃圾填埋场), that's exactly where tons of computers end up. Americans reuse or recycle only about 10 percent of the 50 million computers they replace each year, according to ABC News. Eighty percent is being stockpiled (囤积), which could create even bigger problems in the future, and the remaining 10 percent is landfilled. Throwing e-waste in landfills creates a potential for landfills are tougher in the United States than in many other countries, e-waste is often exported, especially to some developing countries.(80) Some countries are creating policies to deal with the growing e-waste problem. In the Netherlands, you can bring your old computer to the seller when buying a new one, and the seller must by law accept it free of charge. Japan passed a law in 2001 requiring producers to recycle certain parts.In the united states, a movement called the Computer TakeBack Campaign is demanding that producers take more responsibility for disposing of (处理) old computers, California and Massachusetts recently prohibited certain computer parts in landfills, while Apple and IBM take back computers for about a $30 fee. Gateway is one step ahead: They will pay you $50 for recycling your old computer when youbuy a new one from them. Lastly, many nonprofit programs accept used equipment, and services have popped up that distribute old computers to schools and other organizations.11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Main Exports of AmericaB. The Computer TakeBack CampaignC. The Harm of E-waste TreatmentD. Electronic Waste-a Global Problem12. What does the word “obsolete” in the first paragraph probably mean?A. Fashionable.B. Useful.C. Out of date.D. Out of control.13. Americans reuse about______ million computers each year.A. 5B. 10C. 15D. 2014. According to the passage, American electronic waste is exported to other countries because these countries have_______.A. the resources and more space to process the e-wasteB. less strictly enforced environment safety standardsC. a lot of skilled e-waste workersD. many computer recycling businesses15. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Japan passed a law to address the e-waste problem.B.

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter.Passage OneHere's a familiar story. You're sitting at the dinner table with a furry, four-legged friend scratching at your feet. When you look down, those cute eyes are almost impossible to resist.What is it about a dog's gaze that makes it so charming? A new study by Japanese scientist Miho Nagasawa seems to have found the answer, and it has to do with something called the cuddle(爱抚)chemical.The cuddle chemical has another, more scientific name: oxytocin. Oxytocin is a substance in the blood that encourages bonding. Levels of oxytocin increase, for example, when a mother feeds her newborn baby. According to Nagasawa's study, the same is true when we look deeply into the eyes of a dog.The results of this study can tell us a lot about the history of the bond between humans and dogs. It all started somewhere tens of thousands of years ago. Scientists believe that wolves used to follow humans who were hunting large animals. The wolves would eat the food left behind by the humans.Humans realized that they could use the wolves to help with the hunt, and eventually both species began to work together toward survival.Over time, the wolves that interacted with the humans began to change. They became more loyal to their human partners. The wolves and humans started to depend on each other and bond with each other. These changes are what caused some of the wolves to turn into what we now know as dogs, a new specie^ evolved to better survive in their environment.This process depended a great deal on the bond humans formed with them. And according to Nagasawa's study, this bond was formed with the help of oxytocin, the cuddle chemical.11. What do we know about oxytocin?A. It regulates blood flow.B. It promotes bonding.C. It is in the human gene.D. It is good for health.12. When we look deeply into a dog's eyes, the levels of our oxytocin ____.A. reduce over timeB. go either up or downC. are on the riseD. remain unchanged13.

Explore the role of human-wolf partnership.B. Show the characteristics of the cuddle chemical.C. Explain the bond between humans and dogs.D. Understand the evolution of species.Passage TwoRed Nose Day (RND) is a well-known event in the UK. The aim of the day is to raise money for a charity called Comic Relief which helps people in need in Africa and in the UK.Comic Relief was started in 1985 by the scriptwriter Richard Curtis.

A community may include people who have at least one common point of interest. In the past, community members lived relatively close to one another in one geographical location: in the same village, town, or city. Nowadays, however, the word community can mean a national, an international, or even an online group of interacting individuals. Therefore, a "new" definition of community might be "a group of people that recognize that they have something in common."Part Ⅵ Writing (15 points)Directions: Youare to write in no less than 100 words on the topic "A good book is a light to thesoul."
