Questions 51-55 are based on the following passage：“Certainly, sir.” the shoemaker said.“When will they be ready?” the man asked.“I’m a bit busy, but they will be ready for you on Thursday,” he said.“That’s fine.” the man said and left the shop.The next morning he received a letter, offering him a job in another country. Within 24 hours he was on an airplane to his new job.Twenty years passed and he returned to his hometown.He remembered his shoes.“They were a good pair of shoes,” he thought, “I wonder if the shoemaker is still there a nd still has them. I’ll go and see.” The same shop, although he was an old man by now.“Good morning.” he said to the shoemaker, “Twenty years ago, I brought in a pair of shoes. Do you still have them?”“Name?” the old shoemaker asked.“Smith.” the ma n said.“I’ll go and see. They may be in the back.”The shoemaker went out to the back of his shop and a few minutes later returned, carrying a pair of shoes.“Here they are.” he said, “One pair of brown shoes. I’m a bit busy now, but they’ll be ready on Thursday.”51. Why did the man go to a shoemaker?A. They were old friends.B. He wanted him to make a new pair of shoes.C.

In the end, the man found that__________.A. his shoes were still there, but the shoemaker didn’t repair themB. his shoes were not thereC. the shoemaker had repaired the shoesD. the shoemaker had lost the shoesQuestions 56-60 are based on the following passage：Ian Pearson sees a convergence (会聚点)between clever computers and biotechnology, the coming of implanted chips and enhanced mental ability. Both machines and humans will haveaccess to a global net with instant access to the world’s knowledge. But Pearson also fears that it could divide the world into two classes-those with access to this knowledge and those without. Clearly, there is a risk in losing control of things which are capable of chinking. Pearson expects machines to be as smart as humans by 2050. After that, computers will continue to get even smarter.The trouble with the digital revolution, says MIT Media Lab director Neil Gershenfeld in his book When Things Start to Think, is that computers may have speeded up many of the processes of modern life, but they still remain relatively difficult to use.“Most computers are nearly blind, deaf and dumb,” says Gershenfeld. The speed of the computer is increasingly much less of a concern than the difficulty：1. in telling it what you want it to do, or2. in understanding what it has done, or3. in using it where you want to go, rather than where it can go.What’s needed now, he concludes, is digital evolution. The real challenge is how to create systems with many parts that can work together and change, combining the physical world with the digital world.If we can manage the development so that they (thinking machines) stay our friends, in just a few years we’ll see progress in every area of life that makes the past centuries look like all of us have been asleep.“Evolution is a result of interaction,” says Gershenfeld.“And information technology is greatly changing how we interact. Therefore it’s not crazy to think about the influence of this on evolution.”56. What is the main idea of this passage?A. Computers will become smarter and smarter.B. The image of things will be different in the future.C. The speed of computers is much less of a concern.D. Computers will divide the world into two classes.57. According to Pearson,__________are the two classes into which the world will be divided.A. those who study computers in their spare time and those who don’tB. those who have computers to sell and those who haven’tC. those who can use computers to learn knowledge and those who can’tD. those who are smarter than computers and those who aren’t58. According to Neil Gershenfeld, __________is needed now.A. greater speed of computer development and the process of lifeB. a digital evolution that combines the physical world and the digital one59. What does the sentence “in just a few years we’ll see progress in every area of life that makes the past centu ries look like we’ve all been asleep” suggest?A. We have been sleeping for thousands of years according to computers.B. The digital evolution has progressed very slowly during the last few years.C. Comparatively speaking . progress of the past centuries was really very slow.D. We can work for a few years to make progress in the digital evolution possible.60. What leads to evolution according to the passage?A. InformationB. RevolutionC. ComputersD. InteractionQuestions 61-65 are based on the following passage：“University-the best time of your life.” All my parent’s friends, and my many uncles and aunts, said the same thing to me, despite the fact that none of them had ever been to one. However, I thought there had to be something in what they were saying , and as the day approached when I would start my higher education, I felt a growing excitement.And then university actually began and for the first term I was terribly miserable, I’d chosen a university that was a long way from home, and in those first few months, how I regretted not having taken my parents’ advice and gone to the very good university a short bus ride away. I was very homesick and everything about the university seemed alien(陌⽣的)to me, lecturers and the other students. I felt as if I was on another planet, and, although I could cope with the work, had great difficulty finding anyone I felt comfortable talking to.But the next term things changed. I started chatting to two girls who had rooms on the same floor as me and we became friends. They introduced me to a few more people I got on with, and suddenly there was a group of us who did everything together. We were all quite serious, and intended to be successful, and this, as well as the fact that I found the university work very interesting, meant that I began to develop intellectually. But this isn’t to say we didn’t have fun⼀we did, there were parties most weekends and by my second year, I knew a lot of interesting people. When I left, having got a very g ood degree, I had to confess that I’d had a wonderful time at university, and it was hard to believe life could get any better.61. “University-the best time of your life.” is a saying that the writer__________.A. agrees withB. thinks is often trueC. thinks is sometimes trueD. says is not true for her62.

They ate all that they could find, and then moved on. Then around 10,000 years ago, about 1% of human history, people learned to farm the land.The kind of food we eat depends on which part of the world we live in, or which part of our country we live in. For example, in the south of China they eat rice, but in the north they eat noodles. In European countries near the sea, people eat a lot of fish. In central Europe, awayfrom the sea. people don’t eat so much fish, but they eat more meat. For example, in Germany and Poland, there are hundreds of different kinds of sausages.In North America. Australia, and Europe, people eat with knives and forks. In China, people eat with chopsticks. In parts of India and the Middle East, people use their fingers to pick up food.Nowadays it is possible to transport food easily from one part of the world to another. We can eat whatever we like, at any time of the year. In Britain, bananas come from Africa; rice comes from India or the U. S. A.; strawberries come from Chile or Spain. Food is a very big business. But people in poor countries are still hungry while people in rich countries eat too much.66. When did people learn to farm the land?Around ________________________________________.67.

An Arab traveler in India in the year 900 wrote that it was place “long ago”. Chess was probably invented in India, and it has been played everywhere from Japan to Europe since 1400. The name “chess” is interesting. When one player is attacking the other's king, he says, in English, “check”. When the king has been caught and cannot move anywhere, he says, “checkmate”. These words come from Persian.“Shah mat” means “the king is dead”. That is when the game is over, and one player has won.Such an old game changes very slowly. The rules have not always been the same as they are now. For example, at one time the queen could only move one square at a time. Now she is the strongest piece on the board. It could be interesting to know why this has happened! Chess takes time and thought, but it is a game for all kinds of people. You don't have to be a champion(冠军) in order to enjoy it. It is not always played by two people sitting at the same table. The first time the Americans beat the Russians was in a match played by radio. Some of the chess masters are able to play among many people at the same time. The record was when one man played 400 games! It is said that some people play chess by post. This must take chess the slowest game in the world.11. Which of the following is known to be true?A. Chess is an old Indian traveling game.B. Chess is the oldest game in the world.C. Chess was played in Japan and Europe before 1400.D. Chess was played in India before 900. 12. One player has won the game when ________.A. he attacks the other player's kingB. he says some Persian wordsC. the other player's king can not move anywhereD. he says “check” to the other player13. Which of the following will you hear when one player has won the game?A. “Shah mat”B. “Check”C. “The king is dead”D. “Check mate”14. Which of the following is NOT correct?A. All kinds of people can play chess sitting at the same table.B. Only two people can play chess sitting at the same table.C. Some people write to each other playing chess.D. The Russian lost the game played by radio.15. According to the old rule of the game _________.A. the queen was the strongest piece on the boardB. the king had to be attacked all the timeC. the queen could move no more than one square at a timeD. The king could not move anywhereII. Vocabulary and Structure （本题共15小题，每题1分，共15分）Directions: For each of the following sentences there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

People who are happy tent to think that life is easy. They are in good physical health and able to buy the things that they need and want. Happiness is about satisfying our needs and desires. The pursuit(追求) of happiness is often associated with selfish behavior. Animals have needs and desires and they can feel happy too. What sets human beings apart form animals is not the pursuit of happiness, but the pursuit of meaning, which is unique to humans.We can often find meaning in helping others or marking a sacrifice( 牺牲) for a “greater good”. Meaning often comes at the expense of happiness. When people have invested themselves in something bigger than themselves, they worry more and have higher levels of stress and anxiety in their lives than happy people. Volunteering ( 做义工） in rural schools, for example, is meaningful but also involves hardship.Happiness, like any emotion, is felt in the here and now --it eventually fades away .However, meaning is enduring. It connects the past to the present to the future.46.What is the main idea if the passage ？A. A happy life is basically different form a meaningful life.B. Leading a happy life is connected with being a “take”.C. Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want.D. Meaning connected the past to the present to the future.47.

It is implied in Paragraph 4 that.A. meaning will disappear sooner or laterB. living a happy life means to be a “giver”C. happiness lasts a relatively short period of timeD. making a sacrifice for a “greater good” brings us happiness50. The passage is organized by.A. giving examplesB. making contrastsC. definingD. classifyingPassage 2Our traditional belief has it that morning larks are most likely to be healthy, wealthy and wise .But those who are to bed and early to rise do not always have the upper hand (占上风). Researchers have revealed that night owls(夜猫子) are generally brighter and wealthier than able to get up early in the morning.Experts examined the habits of 1,000 youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or preferred to go to bed early. School performance and inductive(归纳的) reasoning were measured and academic (学业的) ades in the major subjects were also taken into consideration.The results show that evening types score higher than morning types on inductive reason in which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and academic performance .The night owls also have a greater capacity to think conceptually (概念性地) and analyze. Such abilities have been linked to creative thinking, better jobs and higher incomes.Morning larks, however, often get better exam results in school, possibly because lessons are held at wrong time of day for night owls.51. The underlined expression”morning larks”in Paragraph 1refers to .A. birds which scream late at nightB. birds which sing early in the morningC. People who like to stay up late at nightD. people who are early to rise in the morning52. Traditionally, we hold that.A. Morning larks do not always have the upper handB.

Morning larks often score higher in exams, possible because.A. they are generally brighterB. they are early to bed and early to riseC. they have a greater capacity to analyzeD. the arrangement of lessons fits their body clocksPassage 3While drunken driving may be decreasing, traffic safety experts remain troubled how to cope with another alcohol-related problem; drunken pedestrian( 行人) 。

2013江苏专转本英语真题及答案
江苏省2013年普通高校专转本考试真题Part I Reading Comprehension (共20小题，每小题2分，共40分)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.When Mrs. Joseph Groeger died recently in Vienna, Austria, people asked the obvious question. “W hy did she live to be 107?” Answers were provided by a survey conducted among 148 Viennese men and women who had reached the age of 100. What was surprising was that the majority had lived most of their lives in cities. Although cities are often regarded as unhealthy places, city living provides benefits that country living may lack. One factor seems to be important to the longevity(长寿) of those interviewed.This factor is exercise. In the cities it is often faster to walk short distances than to wait for a bus. Even taking public transportation often requires some walking. Smaller apartment houses have no elevators, and so people must climb stairs. City people can usually walk to local supermarkets. Since parking spaces are hard to find, there is often no choice but to walk.On the other hand, those who live in the country and suburbs do not have to walk every day. In fact, the opposite is often true. To go to school, work, or almost anywhere else, they must ride in cars.1.The Vienna survey may help to explain __________.A.the complaints of people in apartment housesB.the causes of Mrs. Groeger’s deathC.the longevity of people like Mrs. GroegerD.the image of cities in general2.The second paragraph lists some ___________.A.disadvantage of walkingB.occasions for walking in city lifeC.problems of city livingments made by city people3.To reach the third floor of a building, it would probably be most healthful ___________.A.to take the elevatorB.to walk up the stairsC.to ride in a carD.to find an alternative walking4.People who live in the country usually do more driving than walking because ___________.A.they don’t live near business areasB.they don’t need exerciseC.they don’t like walkingD.they can’t afford to take the bus5.We can draw a conclusion from this passage that _________.A.air pollution is not seriousB.anyone can live to be 107C.country people should move to citiesD.walking is a healthful exercisePassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.The Bedouin people, a tribe living in the deserts of Arabia and Northern African, think most highly of people who show loyalty. To them loyalty does not mean that one is devoted to a country, a place, or a leader. Loyalty means being faithful to one’s family and tribe.The Bedouin people are proud of their ancestors(祖先). They do not admire a hero from an ordinary or poor family as much as one who comes from an honored family. They especially respect those who have inherited(继承) a good family name and then have passed it on to their children.A man’s position among his people depends upon his ancestors, relatives, and fellow tribesmen. If they are honored, he is also honored. If they are disagreed, he, too, is disgraced. Therefore, one carefully guards the honor of his family and his tribe.A man can protect his family’s honors by being brave and generous and by giving protection to those who ask for it. He also guards it by carefully watching the women of his family.A Bedouin woman cannot bring honor to her family, but she can bring disgrace. Even if a woman only looks as if she has done something wrong, she may be killed. The honor of her family depends upon her virtue(美德).6. The best title for this passage can be __________.A. Life of the Bedouin PeopleB. Women’s Position in the Bedouin FamilyC. Bedouin People’s Idea of Loyalty and HonorD. How to Guard Honors7. The Bedouin people think most highly of one who is ______.A. devoted to his country and his leaderB. from an ordinary familyC. proud of his ancestor and relativesD. faithful to his family and tribe8. It is learned from the passage that ___________.A. a hero from an honored family is more admiredB. one can not live in the tribe without a good family nameC. all the Bedouin people are kind, brave and generousD. family traditions can never be passed to children9. The word “disgraced” (Para. 3) means “ __________”.A. disappearedB. disappointedC. dishonoredD. discouraged10. It is implied in the passage that the Bedouin women are __________.A. treated as the equals of menB. respected for what they doC. not interested in positionD. not respected as much as menPassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.Up until about 100 years ago, newspaper in the United States attracted only the most serious readers. They used no illustrations (插图) and the articles were about politics or business.Two men changed that---Joseph Pulitzer of the New York World and William Randolph Hearst of the New York Journal. Pulitzer bought the New York World in 1883. He changed it from a traditional newspaper into a very exciting one overnight. He added lots of illustrations and he told his reporters to write articles on every crime they could find. And they did. One woman reporter even pretended she was mad and was sent to a hospital. She then wrote many articles about the poor treatment of patients in those hospitals where madmen were kept. In 1895, Hearst came to New York from California. He wanted the Journal to be more exciting than the World. He also wanted it to be cheaper, so he lowered the price by a penny. Hearst attracted attention because his newspaper heading were bigger than any one else’s. He often said, “Big print makes big news.”Pulitzer and Hearst did anything they could to sell newspaper. For example, Hearst sent Frederic Remington, the famous illustrator, to draw pictures of the Spanish-American War. When he got there, he told Hearst that no fighting was going on. Hearst answered, “ You provide the pictures. I’ll provide the war.11. About a century ago, American newspaper carried news about __________.A. all kinds of exciting newsB. crimes and mad peopleC. the poor treatment of patientsD. serious matters only12. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following statements is TRUE?A. Pulitzer and a woman news reporter changed the world overnight.B. Pulitzer bought the Journal with the help of his reporter.C. A woman news reporter pretended to be mad.D. A woman reporter became mad and was sent to a hospital.13. Hearst attracted readers’ attention by ______________.A. using bigger headingsB. reporting big war newsC. raising the price of the newspaperD. reporting politics and business only14. __________ was asked to draw war pictures.A. HearstB. RemingtonC. PulitzerD. A woman reporter15. This passage tells us that ________.A. Pulitzer and Hearst were the most famous reporters of the United StatesB. newspaper owners sometimes hired mad men as their news reportersC. the world and the journal were not popular newspaper at that timeD. Pulitzer and Hearst used every possible means to win over each otherPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.It is hard to imagine life without Arabic numbers(数字). No other number system ever invented has a simple way to write a number like 1984. In Roman numeral, it comes out like this MCMLXXXIV. Imagine how difficult it would be for a school pupil to remember it!The Arabs, however, call their numbers “Indian numerals”. This is probably because they got the original idea a long time ago from India. There were no printed newspapers or scientific magazine then, so mathematics traveled along the same routes that silk did, as businessmen sold and bought goods. The Arabs took the new numbers and made improvements that quickly led to advances in technology.The achievement of Arabic technology can be seen from a passage in a 10th-century book about an Arabic city:” The neighboring country showed the results of careful work in agriculture, trade, and industry. Rice and many other plants were grown in fields with water supplied by Arab engineers. The city included 900 public baths, stone-covered streets, fountains, and beautiful buildings.” At this time, London was a small town with dirty streets, and Berlin was a farming village. In fact, cities outside the Arab world did not reach the same level of social development until centuries later.16. This passage tells us that the Arabs were a people _______________.A. inventing Roman numeralsB. having advanced technology long agoC. growing corn and many other plants thenD. supplying other countries with colorful silk17. It takes much more efforts to ___________.A. learn Roman numerals than Arab numeralsB. introduce numerals through printed materialsC. make great use of silk roadsD. teach businessmen numerals18. The Arabs call their numerals “ Indian numerals” because _________.A. the numerals are mainly used in ChinaB. they copied numerals from IndiansC. Arabic numerals were first used by Indian businessmenD. they got some ideas about number from the ancient Indians19. According to the passage, the Arab people ___________.A. did business with the IndiansB. learned some ideas about business from IndiansC. built public baths in London in the 10th centuryD. traveled a long way to learn mathematics in Rome20. From a 10th-century book, we can learn that ___________.A. Berlin was formerly a dirty with sufficient rice and plantsB. London was under the rule of the Romans in the 10th centuryC. the Arab world was more advanced than other countries aroundD.

Part I Reading Comprehension(60marks,60minutes)Section A（每小题2分）FormatⅠDirections:There are4passages in this part.Each passage is followed by five questions.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 Answer Sheet.（40marks）Passage oneQuestions1to5are based on the following passage:A quality education is the ultimate liberator.It can free people form poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society.It can also free communities and countries,allowing them to leap forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible.For this reason,the international community has committed itself to getting all the world's children into primary school by2015,a commitment known as Education for All.Can Education for All be achieved by2015?The answer is definitely“yes”, although it is a difficult task.If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum of five years of primary school,instead of just enrolling for classes,which used to be the measuring stick for education,thechallenge will become even more difficult.Only32countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates.The number rises to88if completion rates are used as the standard.Still, the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community.59of the88countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by2015if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems.They also need significant increases in external(外部的)financing and technical support.The29countries lagging(落后)farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented(空前的)rates of progress.But this is attainable with creative solutions,including the use of information technologies,flexible and targeted foreign aid,and fewer people living in poverty.A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country's capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies,institutions and management.Where a country scores well on these standards,foreign assistance can be highly effective.1.It can be inferred from the passage that a quality education has the function of.A.helping a country free from foreign ruleB.making people become wealthyC.giving people more power and freedomD.speeding up the progress of society2.The goal of Education for All is.A.to get all the children in the world to go to primary school by2015B.to let poor children have the same chances to go to school as rich onesC.to support those countries determined to reform their education systemsD.to help the poor countries improve productivity and achieve unity3.What used to be the standard of measuring a country's education?A.The rate of pupils being admitted by high school.B.The percentage of children enrolling for classes.C.The rate of school children who successfully passed the required courses.D.The percentage of children who successfully completed primary school.4.Which of the following will help achieve the goal of Education for All?A.Setting up more primary schools in poor regions.B.Establishing higher-performing education systems.C.Taking advantage of information technologies.D.Significantly increasing the national financing.5.The efficiency of using foreign aid is mostly determinedby.A.the government's policies and managementB.the country's wealth and economyC.people's awareness of developing educationD.students'performance in school examsPassage TwoQuestions6to10are based on the following passage:This thanksgiving,many families are closer than they've been in years.An increasing number of extended families across the USA are under the same roof living together These arrangements are multigenerational,with adult children, grandchildren or an elderly parent sharing quarters.The reasons are economic and social.“This is a pattern that will continue,”predicts Neil Howe,a historian and economist.”High rates of multigenerational family living had been a norm until after World War II,when the emphasis shifted to the nuclear family enabled by construction of interstate highways,the rise of suburbs and the affluence(富裕)of young adults.But by the late1950s and1970s,there was a generation gap and almost generation war,”Howe says.“There was a time in the1970s when no one wanted to live together.Seniors were moving to Leisure World to get away from the culture of the kids.Couples were divorcing and youngsters wanted to strike out on their own.But now,many young adults do return home,at least temporarily.”Michele Beatty,54,of Waynesville,Ohio,and her husband,Cordon,56,had an empty nest between the time the youngest of their three sons went to college and the return of their oldest,Patrick,who left his job as a graphic designer.“They said,'you can come home to your old room and continue to look for employment,'”says Patrick Beatty,28.“I was stuck there.We were all brought up with the cultural expectation that once you leave the nest,you are not supposed to return..I feel part of the time like a burden,”he says.“I try to contribute to the house when I can.I try to stay out of their way as much as possible.It's home,but not the home I'd be building for myself if I had my way.”A survey of2,226adults,done by Narris Interactive for the non-profit Generations United,found that of those in a multigenerational home,40% reported that job loss,changes in job status or unemployment was a reason for the living arrangement.6.Which of the following arrangements is multigenerational in the USA?A.Nuclear families.B.Extended families.C.Single parent families.D.Families of seniors.7.In the USA,multigenerational home is regarded as a norm.A.between1950s and1970sB.before World War IIC.ever since1950sD.until late1970s8.According to the writer,families are closer than beforebecause.A.interstate highways make going home easierB.relatives tend to live close by in the suburbsC.more people return home for holidaysD.family members now live together9.What do the underlined words“strike out on their own”in Paragraph2most probably mean?A.Develop a new relationship with their employers.B.Get away from the culture of the kids.C.Start to live an independent life.D.Build their own houses10..How does Patrick Beatty feel about living with his parents?A.ExcitedB.HelplessC.RegretfulD.Satisfied Passage ThreeQuestions11to15are based on the followingpassage:Researchers at the University of Maryland's School of Nursing found that55 percent of the2,103female nurses they surveyed were obese(肥胖的),citing job stress and the effect on sleep of long,irregular work hours as thecause.The study,which measured obesity using estimates of body mass index(体质指数)，found that nursing schedules affected not only the health of the nurses but the quality of patient care.“Health care professionals are often involved in proving advice or care to patients that relates to things that aren't totally under control in their own lives. It's not uniform for health care professionals to eat well or avoid tobacco,”said Dr.David Katz,the director of the Yale University Prevention Research Center.Keith-Thomas Ayoob,associate professor at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine,said nurses are just as susceptible to health problems as the rest of society.“Before we were health professionals,we were real people.Just because we became health professionals doesn't mean we stopped being members of regular society with all the problems that go along with it.It illustrates that knowledgealone isn't always enough to produce behavioral changes,”saidAyoob.The same is true with smoking,Ayoob said.“We all know smoking is bad.It doesn't matter if you're a doctor or a nurse or a plumber.You might assume that your interest in health would be higher if you were a health professional,but a lot of doctors and nurses smoke,”said Ayoob.“Nurses need to understand the importance of taking care of themselves before patients or their families,”Ayoob said.To combat the high obesity rate among nurses,Kihye Han,the author of the study,proposed more education on good sleep habits,and better strategies for adapting work schedules.She also called for napping at work to relieve sleep deprivation(睡眠不足)，reduce fatigue and increase energy.11.One of the causes of the high obesity rate among nurses is.A.heavy smokingB.nursing schedulesC.less educationD.unhealthy food12.By saying“It's not uniform for health care professionals to eat well or avoid tobacco”,Dr.David Katz wants to tellus.A.health care professionals eat wellB.doctors and nurses usually don't smokeC.health care professionals wear different uniformsD.doctors and nurses don't necessarily have healthy behaviors.13.The underlined words“susceptible to”in Paragraph4probably mean.A.easily influenced byB.closely connected withC.highly sensitive toD.very doubtful about14.It can be inferred from the passage thatA.nurses need more professional trainingB.nurses need some help to control weightC.doctors don't have obesity problemsD.doctors often give useless advice15.What might be helpful to solve the problem of high obesity among nurses?A.More sleepB.Tighter scheduleC.Higher incomeD.More exercisePassage FourQuestions16to20are based on the following passage:A new study shows an astonishing number of people are using their cellphones on the john(盥洗室).From web browsing and texting to conferencecalls and online shopping,it seems this technology-driven word leaves no time for bathroom breaks.11mark,an integrated marketing agency,surveyed1,000American mobile users in October.Seventy-five percent of them admitted they used their phones while on the toilet--leaving no mystery as to what happens behind closed stalls.And this doesn't just account for the technology-addicted youth.Forty-seven percent of mobile users from the Silent Generation(born1946or before),65 percent of Baby Boomers(1946-1964)and80percent of Gen X-ers(1965-1976) use their cell phones in the bathroom.But as expected,Generation Y has the highest percentage of multitaskers,using their phones and the john at the same time.Did the same percentage of Gen Y wash their hands afterward?Ninety-two percent of those surveyed reported they washed their hands after using the restroom(perhaps all those“You must wash your hands before returning to work”signs have started to pay off).But unfortunately the same cannot be said for their mobile devices--only14 percent wash their phones after using the bathroom.Maybe this calls for a new-age health initiative,requiring public restaurants to change their signs to “You must wash your hands---and your phone—before returning to work.”And for many,toilet talking and texting was not a just one-time thing,used only in the most dire(急迫的)circumstances.Twenty-four percent of mobile users reported they actually don't go to the bathroom without theirphones.In a world where you can't even have a moment of solitude(独处)on the toilet,one is forced to wonder,isn't anything sacredanymore?16.The passage is mainly about.A.a survey on how people use their mobile phonesB.the different ages and percentages of mobile usersC.whether people wash their hands and phones after using the bathroomD.how technology-driven world influences bathroom breaks17.We can learn from the passage that what happens in the bathroom used to be regarded as.A.funnyB.enjoyableC.ridiculousD.Mysterious18.It can be inferred from the passage that.A.the older people are more addicted to technologyB.the younger people are better multitaskersC.technology has the same influence on different peopleD.technology has a destructive power19.The underlined words“pay off”in Paragraph5probably means.A.deserve nothingB.cost muchC.influence peopleD.go unnoticed20.What is the tone of this passage?A.ironicB.humorousC.optimisticD.Doubtful FormatⅡDirections:In the following passage,some sentences have been removed.For questions21—25,choose the most suitable one from the list A—G to fit into each of the numbered blanks.There are two extra choices,which do not fit into any of the gaps.Mark your answers on Answer Sheet.(10marks)This year the world’s population ticked over to7billion.21)They forecast dramatic changes unless significant steps are taken to control population growth.Here are some challenges a population of7billion mustconfront.Water is probably going to be the first real threat that we bump into.Access to fresh water becomes incredibly difficult.We’re seeing the impacts of overuse of water resources and that sort of pressure mounts as the world population increases.22)What we’re putting into the atmosphere is going to lead to changes that haven’t been seen in millions of years.As the whole world warms up,a lot of places become very unpleasant to live in.23)We have to find less polluting sources of energy and be much more careful in the way that we make use of the remaining non-renewable fuels we’ve got.If we continue to tap the resources to meet the immediate economic demands，the supplies will run out in time.We still can’t imagine that one day we have to run the world from renewable energy resources.24)We’ve got some major health problems with the medical services to actually attack the diseases of old age.But the real problem is that the world population is growing fastest in the developing countries.How can we cope with a double of the population when they’re already dirt poor and only just getting enough to live on?25)Is it all doom and gloom(前景暗淡）as the experts suggest,or do we have a brighter future?A.Challenges range from water shortages to rising sea levels.B.Experts have painted a depressing future for life on Earth.C.All countries in the world will face the challenge of populationaging.D.Agriculture,a main consumer of water,may have to change its whole structure.E.f we hang on to them for a little bit,they’ll get more and more valuable in the future.F.The challenge of meeting the food needs of its ever-growing population isenormous.G.There will be much hotter temperatures,summer-time heat stress and risingsea levels.Section B（每小题1分）Directions:In this section,there is a passage with ten blanks.You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage.Read the passage through carefully before making your choices.Please blacken the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet.You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.(10marks)A good deal of fascinating research has been done about the reading patternsof young people,and it is surprising to discover at what an early age childrenstart expressing preferences for particular kind of books.A recent report，which26in detail the reading habits of primary-school children,showed that even seven-year-old boys and girls have27views about what they want to read.Girls, in general,read more,and28more girls than boys preferred reading stories.Boys were showing a29for the more instant appeal of picture stories,or else books about their hobbies.These tastes continue30until the children are teenagers.Apparently girls read more in general，but more fiction in particular.You could say that there aremore31for girls to read fiction:magazines32the fiction habit in girls in their early teens,and by their late teens they have probably moved on to the adultwomen’s magazines.Teenage boys33to buy magazines about their hobbies：motorcycles,heavy transport and so on.Adult reading tastes are also the34of research.Again the number of women who read for pleasure is35higher than the number of men.It seemsthat the majority of women still want love stories.There has also been someanalysis

2013年江苏省五年一贯制专转本英语试题PartⅠReading Comprehension(每题2分，共30分)Directions : there are 3 reading passages in this part . Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answers marked A , B , C and D choose the best answer to each questionPassage oneOn June 26, 2000, two scientists, called Francis Collins and Craig Venter, told the world that they could now read the whole "map" of the human body: DNA. DNA is something that everybody has, and it tells the body what to do. DNA is the reason that we look like our mother and father, because we get some of their DNA to make our own.People have been trying to understand the human body for a long time. In 1860, Gregor Mendel discovered a special reason why we look the same as other people in our family. It is because of small things named "genes" in our body. In 1953, James Watson and Francis Crick made another discovery and found out that those small parts are real messages written in the DNA with a special language.In 1961, Marshall Nirenberg and Johann Matthaei found a message in DNA showing how DNA tells the cell (细胞) to build its parts. Scientists have now found all the words in the DNA map, but we still do not understand what they all do. By understanding what just one "word" means, we can help save more people from several illnesses.Most people hope that this will help make better medicine and help sick people. Other people worry that when people begin to know more words and findout lots of other information, we might use it in a wrong way, just to make people more attractive, or stop sick people from getting jobs. Man would have to meet a lot of trouble if DNA technic wasn’t limited in use.1.When did we first know why we look like other people in our family?A.In 1860.B. In 1953.C. In 1961.D.

Then several of the small bags are grouped together and put into a big bag. If you have several big bags with small bags in them, they give you a cardboard box to put thepackages-in-the-little-bags-in-the-big-bags in.A lot of things we buy wouldn't really need any protective wrapping at all. The skin of an orange protects an orange pretty well for most of its natural life, but we aren't satisfied with what nature has given it. We wrap them in plastic or put them in a net bag, and then in a paper bag. The orange inside the skin, inside the plastic which is in the paper bag, must wonder where it is.A box of biscuits often has waxed paper(蜡纸) next to the biscuits, a cardboard box holding the food and then a decorative wrapping aroundit.A relative of ours bought a new sofa recently because she liked the fine leather (皮革) it was covered with. She liked it so much she didn't want it to get dirty, so she bought a cloth cover to put over it.We may never again see the leather she's protecting.6、According to the author, the use of protective wrappings______.

Probably the first to use it were the Chinese in the 11th century B C.We know that the umbrella was used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use: it became a symbol of honor. In the Far East in ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by those in high officeIn Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in commonly used in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrella as protection against the rain were the ancient RomansDuring the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in the late sixteenth century. And again it was considered as a symbol of power. By 1680, the umbrella appeared in France and later in EnglandBy the eighteenth century, the umbrella was used against rain throughout mostof Europe. Umbrellas have hot changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight.
