2009年4月北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试试题及答案(A)Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)第一篇文章主要是讲关于十几岁年轻人的一些问题。
Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by som e questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marke d A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding le tter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:I hear many parents complain that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so.At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stan d on your own feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking ou t boldly on their own, most of them are holding one another's hands for reassurance (放心).They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But they all end up listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of th eir cocoon (茧) into a larger cocoon.(76) It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a market for teenagers. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. Thi s is a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to liste n to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come—with the people who respect you for who you are. That's the only kind of popularity that really counts.1. The author's purpose in writing this passage is to tell______.【答案】B第1题目问的是作者写这篇文章的目的是干什么的。

TranslationPart 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.According to a recent survey, employees in many companies today work longer hours than employees did in 1979．They also take shorter vacations than employees in 1979．It seems that Americans are working harder today than ever before. Or are they? A management consultant, Bill Meyer, decided to find out. For three days, he observed an investment banker hard at work. Meyer wrote down everything the banker did during his long workday, At the end of the three-day period, Meyer reviewed the banker’s activities with him. What did they find out? They discovered that the man spent 80 percent of his time doing unnecessary work. For example, he attended unnecessary meetings, made redundant (多余的) telephone calls, and spent time packing and unpacking his two big briefcases. (76)Apparently, many people believe that the more time a person spends at work, the more he or she accomplishes. When employers evaluate employees, they often consider the amount of time on the job in addition to job performance. Employees know this. Although many working people can do their job effectively during a regular 40-hour work week, they feel they have to spend more time on the job after normal working hours so that the people who can promote them see them. A group of headhunters (猎头) were asked their opinion about a situation. They had a choice of two candidates for an executive position with an important company. The candidates had similar qualifications for the job．For example, they were both reliable. One could do the job well in a 40-hour work week. The other would do the Same job in an 80-hour work week just as well. According to a headhunting expert, the 80-hour-a-week candidate would get the job．The time this candidate spends on the job may encourage other employees to spend mote time at work, too. Employers believe that if the employees stay at work later, they may actually do more work. However, the connection between time and productivity (生产率) is not always positive. (77) In fact, many studies indicate that after a certain point, anyone’s productivity and creativity begin to decrease. Some employees are not willing to spend so much extra, unproductive time at the office once they finish their work satisfactorily, they want to relax and enjoy themselves. For these people, the Solution is to find a company that encourages people to do both.1．What is the main idea of this passage?A．Many people work long hours but do not always do a lot of work.B．Most people can get more work done by working longer hours.C．Most Americans work 80 hours a week and some work even longer.D．People can make more money by working longer hours.正确答案：A解析：本题考查考生对文章大意的把握。

One Friday afternoon he was riding along the track towards the Henderson farm .He was looking for a prize bull which had escaped from the Borrogee paddock . He reached the hills and saw at once that he could not go further .There had been a fire in the forest which had gone out . But the air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track . Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke . He waited . It was a girl on a horse , and she was riding towards him ."There's a badly burnt man on the farm ,"the girl shouted. "He saved my life . Please help me to save him ."The girl was Cathy Henderson ,She had been on horseback for two hours . She had to jump over fallen trees that were still burning . Her pony had fallen with her twice . She was thirsty and almost dead from want of sleep . But she rode back to the farm with Jack immediately .Joe Brook was unconscious when they reached him . They lifted him on to Jack's horse . The ride back to Borrogee was terrible . Cathy was so tired that Jack had to tie her to her pony . The pony was tired too.,but its courage was astonishing .It followed Jack right to Borrogee hospital . Nobody saw them arrive because it was night ."I've never seen a horse like that pony," Jack said ,Cathy praised Jack Billabong , but she refused to say anything about the pony ."Joe will write about her in my story ," she said.But she did say one thing :"If Flame hadn't returned to the farm that afternoon, Joe and I woudl have died."16.Jack Billabong did not turn back because _____D__A.he hadn't found the bull yet .B.He smelt a heavy smoke in the forestC.He knew there was a burnt man thereD.He saw something moving towards him.17.Why was the ride back to Borrogee terrible? DA.Because Joe was tired out .B.Because the ride started late at nightC.Because they didn't have enough courageD.Because both Cathy and her pony were exhausted18.Cathy refused to reporters about the pony when she was in Borrogee Hospital because_____D_______A.She didn't know what to sayB.Jack asked her not to talk to themC.She was too weak to say anythingD.Joe would write about it in his writing19.What does the word Flame in the last paragraph refer to? BA.JackB.The ponyC.Jack's horseD.The fire20.Which of the following is the best title of the st ory? DA.Rescue of Joe BrookB.Courage of Jack BillabongC.Love of a Young GirlD.Heroism of a Lovely PonyPassage TwoThe faces of elderly, happily-married people sometimes resemble each other. Dr. Aiken studied a number of couples who had been married for at least twenty-five years Each couple provided four photographs--one photo of each partner at the time of their marriage and another photo of each partner twenty-five or more years later. All background was cut from the photos to remove any clues. The photos were then displayed in groups : a random grouping of the persons at the time of their marriage and another random grouping of the same persons who took photographs later . Some testees were asked to pick out the partners . They failed totally with the first group . Their judgments were on better than chance . But with the photos taken twenty-five or more years after the marriage , the testees were quite successful in deciding who was married to whom . They were particularly successful with the most happily-married couples .Dr.Aiken believes there are several reasons why couples grow alike. One reason has something to do with imitation . One person tends to copy or do the same as someone else without knowing it . He says human begins to imitate the expressions of the faces of their loved ones . Another possible reason , he says , is the common experience of the couples . There is a tendency for people who have the same life experience to change their faces in similar ways . For example , if a couple have suffered from a lot of sad experiences , their faces are likely to change in a similar way.21.Dr.Aiken cut the background from the photos for the purpose of _____C______________A.imitating the couples lifeB.Grouping the couples againC.Leaving no trace for the testeesD.Giving the testees more chances22.The underlined sentence Their judgments were no better than chance implies that the testees___B___A.did a good job in making their choicesB.Had difficulty in picking out the partnersC.Had no chance to make the right judgmentsD.Did better with the first group than with the second23.the underlied word imitate (in para . 2) has a similar meaning to "______A_____A.copyB.changeC.knowD.suffer24.From the passage we can draw the conclusion that____B____A.couples who look alike can live lingerB.Most partners have been proved to grow alikeC.The influence between partners can be quite strongD.Happily-married couples are often richer than others25.The main purpose of the passage is to ____A___A.explain why couples grow alikeB.Tell how couples like each otherG..Discuss the function of marriage D.Describe the life of happily-married couples Passage ThreeThe three biggest lies in America are:(1) "The check is in the mail ", (2) "Of course I'll respect you in the moring", and (3) "It was a computer error."Of these three little white lies ,the worst is the third . It's the only one that can never be true . Today , if a bank statement cheats you out of $900 that way ,you know what the clerk is sure to say:" It was a compute error ." Nonsense. The computer is reporting nothing more than what the clerk typed into it .The most annoying case of all is when the computerized cashier in the grocery store shows that an item costs more than it actually does . If the innocent buyer points out the mistake , the checker , bagger, and manager all come together and offer the familiar explanation :"It was a computer error."It wasn't, of course . That computerized cashier is really nothing more than an electric eye . The eye reads the Universal Product Code--that bar of black and white lines in a corner of the package--and then checks the code against a price list stored in memory . If the price list is right , you'll be charged accurately.Grocery stores update the price list each day----that is , somebody sits at a keyboard and types in the prices . If the price they type in is too high , there are only two explanations: carelessness or dishonesty . But somehow " a computer error " is supposed to excuseeverything .One reason we let people hide behind a computer is the common misperception that huge , modern computers are "electric brains " with "artificial intelligence ". At some point there might be a machine with intelligence , but none exists today . The smartest computer on Earth right now is no more "intelligent"than your average pen . At this point in the development of computers ,the only thing any machine can do is what a human has instructed it to do .26.Of the three lies ,the one about computer is the worst because the computer itself ___C_A.says nonsenseB.Cheats customersC.Cannot make the errorD.Does not admit its error27.According to the author , a computerized cashier is really just _____D_A.a machine to count moB. machine to receive moneyC.An instrument to print codesD.An instrument to read codes28.Grocery store price lists are updated by ________C_____________A.a computerB.a keyboardC.an employeeD.an electric brain29.The last paragraph of the passage implies that computers____D______A.are very cleverB.never make mistakesC.have a good memoryD.are controlled by men30.Which of the following describes the main idea of the passage? Dputers are stupid and inefficientputer errors are due to its dishonestyputers help stores update the price listputer errors are actually human errorsPassage FourI came across an old country guidebook the other day . It listed all the tradesmen in each village ,and it was impressive to see the great variety of services which were available on one's own doorstep in the late Victorian countryside .Nowadays a traveller in rural England might conclude that the only village tradesmen still flourishing were either selling frozen food to the villagers or selling antiques to visitors . Nevertheless , this would really be a false impression . On the surface , there has been a decline of village commerce , but its power is still remarkable .Our local grocer's shop ,for example , is actually expanding in spite of the competitinon from supermarkets in the nearest town . Women sensibly prefer to go there and exchange the local news while doning their shopping instead of queuing up at a supermarket . And the grocer knows well that personal service has a considerable cash value .His prices may be a bit higher than those in the town ,but he will deliver anything at any time . His assistants think nothing of bicycling down the village street in their lunch hour to take a piece of cheese to an old retired woman who sent her order by word of mouth with a friend who happened to be passing . The richer customers telephone their shopping lists and the goods are on their doorsteps within an hour . They have only to hint at a fancy for some commodity outside the usual stock and the grocer , a red faced figure , instantly obtains if for them.31.Nowadays the commercial services in the village are ____A__A.still very activeB.quickly decliningC.unable to flourishD.personal to visitors32.The local grocer's shop is expanding because____C___A.the competition there is weakB.It is a place for women to chatC.It provides good personal serviceD.The goods there are more valuable33.Which of the following is true about the supermarkets ?

AAfter working long hours On her feet everyday in the operating ,room, Taryn Rose' knew a lot about foot pain. But unlike most of her colleagues(同事),she turned her pain into money: Today she is the boss of T aryn Rose International, a $528 million company that makes nice and comfortable shoes.At the beginning, Rose realized the only thing that could stop her was fear of ,failure. "I couldhear my friends and family saying, 'Why did you leave a good job?' If I failed, would I be okay facing them? And: t thought, 'So what? I can go back for further study in medicine.' I started to accept that it would be okay to say, 'I failed, but I tried.' Once I was comfortable with that th6fight, the fear came to an end. I realized I feared regret more than failure. And after you turn to the path you choose, there is nothing acceptable but Success"Now, Rose has no regrets about leaving medicine. "What I'm doing is not all that different from: what I Was doing as a doctor. The goal is the same: to relieve (减轻) pain. A former professor told me: 'You're helping hundreds of thousands of women with your shoes. As a doctor, you would have helped only the few who went to your office. You're having a much greater effect.'Looking back, Rose admits she caught a couple of lucky breaks. "To me, luck is about being prepared for those opportunities (机会) that come knocking. You have to have an open mind, the right skilis and all your senses working 'to see what opportunities present themselves. Luck can open the door, but you still have to walk through it."36. Before starting:her shoe business, Taryn Rose was aA. nurseB. workerC. doctorD. boss37. Rose realized later was the most fearful for her to have or face in her job change.A. failureB. regretC. familyD. colleagues38. What did her former professor think about Rose and her new job?A. She doesn't have to meet many people in her office.B. Her new work is qtiite different from her old job.C. She can now serve more people than before.D. Hernew work is much more difficult.39. Which of thefollowing can best!explain the last sentence in the passage?A. You have to do what you can afterluck brings you opportunities.B. You should open the door when opportunities come to you.C: YOu haveto be prepared for walking through the door.D. You should open your eyes to see opportunities clearly.BLast fall was a first-of-its-kind season. I did not arrange (安排) any after-school classes formy children. No swimming.'No music lessons. No play dates. Nothing.Once they finished their homework, they were free to do what they pleased, but only onehour of TV. In the beginning, my sons, Ben, 11, and Nick, 9, were anxious about this sudden,unplanned freedom. I had to, push them out of the door with a ball, a bike, and so on. "Play? Iordered.I learned that this new plan takes time, patience and a lot of faith in the theory that havingexcellent grades isn't really important.When my older kids, now in college and high school, were young, I brought in the rules ofmodern parenting. They are unspoken, but followed carefully. First, you must let your childhave a variety of activities. After all, you never know where you'll find a genius (天才). Second, if the child shows the slightest talent (才能), the activity must be pushed with lessons, special coaching (辅导) and practice of several days a week. Every minute should be taken and every minute has a purpose. That was really too much for my children.Now with the new plan, we told stories, We listened to music. And' the. kids played with bikes, balls, and whatever was handy. Nobody kept score. In fact, the boys played outside so much that the lawn was worn down to the soil in places. They've made friends with those who come from all over the neighbourhood to play games.We like those peaceful evenings. Ben and Nick have a good time this fall, MaYbe that's because the time offhas allowed us to enjoy each other's company;40.What was new for the family last fall?A. The children began to learn music when school was over.B. The writer arranged no' extra lessons for the children.C.The writer found no time to play with the sons.D. The children had nothing toclo alter schooli41. At the beginning of that season the childrenA. hatedto spend more time on their homeworkB. felt excited about making their own decisionsC. were pleased to have more freedomD. were worried about thechange42. According to ',modern parenting" discussed in Paragraph 4, parents shouldA. make use of every minute to be with the childrenB.provide coaching and practice for each, activity .C.try ex, cry means to find a child's real talentD. know the rules but never talk about them43. Fromthe passage we learn thatA. children like story'telling more.than bike-ridingB. parents should teach theirchildren how to make a planC. children should have time to enjoy themselves after schoolD. parents can enjoy their evenings when children play with othersCA woman:heads into apopular New York City coffee shop on a cold: winter rooming. Just ahead of her, a man drops a few papers. The woman pauses to help gather them. A clerk ata busy store thanks a customer who has just bought something. "Enjoy" the young woman says, smiling widely. "Have a nice day." She sounds like she really means it. These arethe common situations we may see every: day.However, in her best-selling book Talk to the Hand, Lynne Truss argues that common good manners such as saying "Excuse me" almost no longer exist. There are certainly plenty who would agree with her. According to one recent study, 70 percent of the U.S. adults (成A.)said people are ruder now than they were 20 years ago.Is it really true? We decided to find out if good manners are really hard to see. In this politeness study, reporters were sent to many cities in the world. They performed three experiments: "door tests" (would anyone hold the door open for them?); "paper drops" (who would help them gather a pile of "accidentally" dropped papers?); and "service tests" (which salesclerks would thank them for a purchase [购物]?)In New York, 60 tests (20 of each type)were done. Along the way, the reporters met all types of people: men and women of different races, ages, professions (职业), and income levels. And guess what? In the end, four out of every five :people they met passed their: politeness test making New York the most polite city in the study.44.What does Lynne Truss argue in Talk to the Hand?.A. People are not as polite as they used to.B. "Excuse me" is not welcome nowadays.C. Of all the adults in the US 70% are rude,D. People don't care about manners any more.45. What is TRUE about the politeness study discussed in the passage?A. The study was reported in many cities of the world.B. New York was the most suitable city for the experiment.C. Sixty tests were designed to see if people are polite to each other.D. Experiments were performed to see if common good manners exist.46. What is found in the study?A. More people passed the tests in New York than in any other cities.B. Different kinds of people acted differently in the New York tests.C. Four out of five people passed the politeness test in the study.D. Manypeople in the experiment passed the tests by guessing.DThis is not a diet (减肥食谱) or a hard ~exercise program. Nobody can stick to those for long. Instead, it's a simple way to make weight loss a natural part of the life you already live. And guess what? It's fun! You don't have to give up the foods you love or do regular exercises. It's about balancing calories(平衡卡路里) in tiny ways that add up to big benefits (好处). You just use some tricks the "naturally thin" people do. Pick the ones you like, stick with them, and you'll lose weight and be strong!T alk it UP Every time you pick Up the phone, stand up and walk around. Heavy people sit on average two and h half hours more every day than thin people, according to astudy.Get face time We use e-mailso much that we've forgotten what our colleagues look like.Pick a colleague or two who sit farthest from you: and deliver 10 of those daily messages in person. And go out of your way: go to a bathroom ora copy machine on another floor and take the stairs, of course.Think about your drink Consider beer or wine instead of a frozen drink: A glass of regular beer has 140 calories and a serving of wine has 126 calories, while a strawberry daiquiri has about 300 and a margarita 340.Reduce a total of 100 calories each day and you'll be able to lose about 10 pounds ina year. This is really not difficult to do.47. What is mainly talked about in the passage?A. How to do exercises daily.B. How to lose weight easily.C.
