Why are men and women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains?

But it is not 43 for men of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps.

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which was a temple to me then. It wasn’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For 15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senior editor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck with it. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered my boss’s office. Would he rage? I wondered. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk,” I began awkwardly. “I came to the Globe when I was twenty-four. Now I’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I’m resigning.” “To another paper?” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, but didn’t say anything. I handed him a letter tha t explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new media company. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wanted to be directly engaged in the change. “I’m glad for you,” he said, quite out of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much of it we can’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world,” he concluded. “And if it doesn’t work out, remember, your star is always high here.”Then I went out of his office, walking through the newsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody —even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture: all the financial security I had carefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman and publisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into a billion-dollar property. “I’m resigning, Bill, ”I said. He listened while I gave him the story. He wasn’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said, “Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46. From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous _______.[A] newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47. If the writer stayed with the Globe _________.[ A] he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams.[ B] he would let his long-cherished dreams fade away.[ C ] he would never have to worry about his future life.[ D] he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions.48. The writer wanted to resign because _________.[A] he had serious trouble with his boss.[ B ] he got underpaid at his job for the Globe.[ C ] he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry.[ D ] he had found a better paid job in a publishing house.49. When the writer decided to resign the Globe was faced with _______.[ A ] a trouble with its staff members[ B ] a shortage of qualified reporters[ C ] an unfavorable business situation[ D ]an uncontrollable business situation50. By “:I wish I were in your shoes.”(in the last paragraph)Bill Taylor meant that _______.[ A ] the writer was to fail.[ B] the writer was stupid[ C ] he would do the same if possible[D] he would reject the writer’s requestText 2Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up in the morning? 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 your labor through your work you may say that you’re “hot”. That’s true. 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 forenoon. 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, Peter! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is that Peter 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 if 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 later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning, but you have an important 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.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51. If a person finds getting up early a problem, most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C] he is not sure when his energy is low.[D] he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52. Which of the following may lead to family quarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D] Attempts to control the energy cycle of other family members.53. If one wants to work efficiently at his low point in the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54. You are advised to rise with a yawn and stretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B] help you to control your temper early in the day[C] enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D] keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A] Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B] Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C] Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D] Children have energy cycles, too.Text 3There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution, the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings in rural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the very climate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning of fossil fuels (coal and oil)is creating a “greenhouse effect”—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world's average temperature. If this view is correct and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities such as New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth's temperature — a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas. Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditions will happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible)Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment ca used by the “advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56. As pointed out at the beginning of the passage, people used to think that air pollution _______.[ A ] cause widespread damage in the countryside[ B ] affected the entire eastern half of the United States[ C ] had damaged effect on health[ D ] existed merely in urban and industries areas57. As to the greenhouse effect, the author __________.[ A ] share the same view with the scientist.[ B ] is uncertain of its occurrence[ C ] rejects it as being ungrounded[ D ] thinks that it will destroy the world soon58. The word “offset”in the second paragraph could be replaced by _________.[ A] slip into [ B ] make up for[ C ] set up [ D ] catch up with59. It can be concluded that ____________.[ A ] raising the world's temperature only a few degrees would not do much harm to life on earth.[ B] lowering the world's temperature merely a few degrees would lead major farming areas to disaster.[C] almost no temperature variations have occurred over the past decade.[D] the world's temperature will remain constant in the years to come.60. This passage is primarily about __________.[A]the greenhouse effect……[ B ] the burning of fossil fuels……[C] the potential effect of air pollution.[ D] the likelihood of a new ice age. Part BDirections:Read the following article in which five people talk about their ideas of dieting. For questions 61 to 65 , -match name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to C )given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.AbbeyYou can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calorie charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are!MarlinI began making some dietary and lifestyles changes during my second year of collegeand have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don't eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer; I can maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly.MaggieDuring my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that I was in good shape since that's what I weighed in college. Now that I've lost all that extra weight, I feel great! People say all the time, "Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?" and I say, "You just don't. It' s not even an option. It's not that hard once you get on it. "BelindaIf you are on a diet, you're always hungry. You can't be hungry and happy at the same time. All the horrible concoctions you eat instead of food leave you permanently dissatisfied. A complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as juicy steak. So at least three times a day you will be exposed to temptation. How miserable to watch others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! And if hunger just proves too much for you, in the end you will lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting. Then things will turn out to be even worse.WoodI went on diet when my doctor told me that my blood pressure tended to be high. Only at that time did I realize the danger of being overweight. Since I began making dietary changes in 1982, eating this way has become increasingly accepted. I don't feel I've lost something after dieting. Instead, I've got something valuable. That is good health.Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61. Abbey [A] Being on a diet is a torture.62. Marlin [ B] I feel better with vegetarian food.63. Maggie [C] I lost weight after dieting.[ D] I began dieting for the sake of health.64. Belinda [E] Dieting enables people to enjoy life more.65. Wood [F] Dieting simply causes endless worries.[ G] Dieting does more harm than good to one' s health.Section IV Writing (40 minutes)You should write your responses to both parts on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66.

2011年英语三级模拟试题及答案

英语三级测试试题Part II Reading Comprehension (30%)Questions 1 to 4 are based on the following passages: He was in the first third-grade class I taught at Saint Mary’s School in Morris, Minnesota. All34 of my students were dear to me, but Mark Eklund was one in a million. Very neat in appearance, he had that happy-to-be-alive attitude that made even his occasional mischievousdelightful.One morning my patience was growing thin when Mark talked once too often, and then I made a novice-teacher’s mistake. I looked at Mark and said, “ If you say one more word, I am going to tape your mouth shut!” But he talked again. Without saying a word, I proceeded to Mark’s desk, tore off two pieces of tape and made a big X with them over his mouth. After class he said to me, “Thank you for correcting me, Sister!”The years flew by, and before I knew it Mark was in my class again. One Friday, things just didn’t feel right. We had worked on a new concept all week, and I sensed that the students were growing frustrated with themselves—and edgy with one another. So I asked them to list the names of the other students in the room on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then I told them to think of the nicest thing they could say about each of their classmatesand write it down.It took the remainder of the class period to finish the assignment, but as the students left the room, each one handed me the papers. Charlie smiled. Mark said, “ Thank you for teachingme, Sister. Have a good weekend.”That Saturday, I wrote down the name of each student on a separate sheet of paper, and I listed what everyone else had said about that individual. On Monday I gave each student his or her list. Some of them ran tow pages. Before long, th4e entire class was smiling. “Really?” I heard whispered. “I never knew that meant anything to anyone!”“I didn’t know others liked meso much!”No one ever mentioned those papers in class again. Several years later, after I returned from a vacation, my parents met me at the airport. From them I knew that Mark was killed in Vietnam. So I attended the funeral. After the funeral, Mark’s father took a wallet out of his pocket. “They found this on Mark when he was killed. We thought you might recognize it.”Opening the billfold, he carefully removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded and refolded many times. I knew without looking that the papers were the ones on which I had listed all the good things each of Mark’s classmates had saidabout him.Mark’s classmates started to gather around us. Charlie smiled rather sheepishly and said, “I still have my list. It’s in the top drawer of my desk at home.” Chuck’s wife said, “ Chuck askedme to put his in our wedding album.”That’s when I finally sat down and cried. I cried for Mark and for all his friends who wouldnever see him again.1. When Mark was in the third grade, he ___.A) was very shy and quietB) was rough and disobedientC) never talked without permissionD) often talked without permission2. One Friday, the students were growing frustrated with themselves because ___.A) the new concept they had been working on was too difficultB) they were not interested in learning the new conceptC) the teacher was not familiar with the new conceptD) the teacher became very impatient with them3. After the funeral, Mark’s mother thanked the author for ________.A) correcting Mark for misbehaving at school many timesB) giving Mark the list of all the good things said aboutC) teaching Mark for such a long period of timeD) asking Mark’s classmates to have dinner with them4. The reason why the students kept the lists of all the good things is that ___.A) they missed each other after they departedB) they wanted to show the lists to their husbands or wivesC) they valued the teacher’s effort for copying all the good things about themD) they treasured what made them feel good about themselvesPassage IIQuestions 5 to 8 are based on the following passage:There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught in has ever ignored spelling or considered it unimportant as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority it must be given over general language development and writing ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with thecomplexities of spelling?If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be likely to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words within his spelling range, choosing to avoid adventurous language. That’s why teachers often encourage the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.I was once shocked to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about a personalexperience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is illegible.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection on the teacher who had omitted to read the essay, which contained some beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher was not wrong to draw attention to the error, but if his priorities had centered on the child’s ideas, an expression his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seekimprovement.5. Teachers differ in their opinions about _____.A) the difficulties in teaching spellingB) the role of spelling in general language developmentC) the complexities of the basic writing skillsD) the necessity of teaching spelling6. The expression “play safe” probably means _____.A) to write carefullyB) to do as teachers sayC) to use dictionaries frequentlyD)to avoid using words one is not sure of7. Teachers encourage the use of dictionaries so that _____.A) students will be able to express their ideas more freelyB) teachers will have less trouble in correcting mistakesC) students will have more confidence in writingD) students will learn to be independent of teachers8. The major point discussed in the passage is ______.A) the importance of developing writing skillsB) the complexities of spellingC) the correct way making compositionsD) the relationship between spelling and the content of a compositionPassage IIIQuestions 9 to 12 are based on the following passage: Population tends to grow at an exponential rate. This means that they progressively double. As an example of this type of growth rate, take one penny and double it every day for one month. After the first week, you would have only 64 cents, but after the fourth week you would haveover a million dollars.This helps explain why the population has come on “all of a sudden”. It took form the beginning of human life to the year 1830 for the population of the earth to reach one billion. That represents a time span of at least two million years. Then it took from 1830 to 1930 for world population to reach 2 billion. The next billion was added by 1960, only thirty years, and in 1975 world population reached 4 billion, which is another billion people in only fifteen years.World population is increasing at a rate of 9,000 per hour, 220,000 per day, 80 million per year. This is not only due to higher birth rates, but to lower death rates as well. The number of births has not declined at the same rate as the number of deaths.Some countries, such as Columbia, Thailand, Morocco, Costa Rica, and the Philippines, are doubling their populations about every twenty-one years, with a growth rate of 3.3 percent a year or more. The United States is doubling its population about every eighty-seven years, with a rate of 0.8 percent per year. Every time a population double, the country involved needs twice as much of everything, including hospitals, schools, resources, food and medicines to care for its people. It is easy to see that this is very difficult to achieve for the more rapidly growingcountries.9. This passage chiefly discussed_______.A) the growth of world populationB) one type of the exponential rateC) the population problem of more rapidly growing countriesD) the possible ways of dealing with the rapid population growth10. According to the passage, what helps to explain why the population problem has comeon “all of a sudden”?A) The penny which doubles itself every day for one month.B) The time span of at least two million years in human history.C) An illustration of the exponential growth rate given by the author.D) The large amount of money you would luckily make after the fourth week.11. Which of the following statements is NOT true?A) World population is increasing at a rate of 150 per minutes.B) Lower death rate also contributes to world population growth.C) The population of Columbia has been doubling every year for 21 years.D) The United States is usuall6y doubling its population about every 87 years.12. When a population doubles, the country involved needs twice as much of everything,including ______.A) hospitals and medicines B) schools and studentsC) food and manpower resources D) all of the abovePassage IVQuestions I3 to 15 are based on the following passage:For years it has been possible to set up cameras to take pictures of cars as they speed along highways, jump lights or drive too fast down the street.However even if the pictures are taken automatically, someone still has to do all the paperwork of issuing fines. But now a British company called EEV has come up with a computerized video system that can do it all automatically.They suggest that all number plates have a bar code as well as the usual number. The barcodes are just strips of lines like those you see on food packets but bigger. EEV’s high speed video camera system can read a bar coded number plate even if the car is doing over 100 miles per hour. The computer controlling the system could then use the information from the bar code to find out the name and address of the driver (from vehicle records), print out the fine and send it off automatically. The inventors also suggest that the system could watch traffic to help catchstolen cars.The new electronic system could be watching everyone that passes the cameras! Many people find the idea that “big brother is watching you” is more of a worry than a few motorists getting away with driving too fast. Moreover, some people will be very unhappy to realize that with new system the police could find out where a particular car has been.13. The best title for the article could be ______.A) People Who Drive Too FastB) Stop People from Driving Too FastC) EEV and the Police SystemD) Implications of Computerized Systems for Motoring Offense14. A traditional function of the camera as used by the traffic police system is to ______.A) take snapshots of cars on highwaysB) catch cars violating traffic rulesC) send fines to fast motoristsD) make the traffic system fully automatic15. The newly-invented system functions more efficiently with the aid of __________.A) car number plates C) bar coded numbers on number platesB) vehicle speeding records D) print-out finesPart III Vocabulary and Structure (20%)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Director Beth Mynatt says“A good bit of our 43 has been working on how to convey information without 44 privacy.We alsodon’t want tocreate 45 anxiety.Maybe she just took a quiet day to read,and the system would have to recognize that.”26.[A]promotions[B]applications[C]practices[D]advances27.[A]way[B]manner[C]style[D]scope28[A]image[B]figure[C]voice[D]sound29.[A]disposed[B]shaped[C]engineered[D]conditioned 30.[A]saying[B]feeling[C]searching[D]doing32[A]Before[B]Once[C]Since[D]Unless32.[A]even[B]thus[C]yet[D]only33[A]hope[B]passion[C]faith[D]notion34.[A]perhaps[B]except[C]provided[D]especially35.[A]therefore[B]likewise[C]however[D]moreover36.[A]how[B]whether[C]what[D]why37.[A]fashionable[B]complicated[C]efficient[D]attractive38.[A]decorating[B]designing[C]delivering[D]debating39.[A]independently[B]enthusiastically[C]colorfully[D]satisfactorily 40.[A]receive[B]recognize[C]represent[D]review41.[A]warned[B]relieved[C]advised[D]informed42.[A]interesting[B]boring[C]disturbing[D]appealing43.[A]analysis[B]research[C]concern[D]focus44.[A]sacrificing[B]affecting[C]preventing[D]losing45.[A]unusual[B]unfortunate[C]uncertain[D]unnecessary三、SECTIONⅢ Reading Comprehension(40 minutes)PartA Directions:Read the following three texts.Answer the questions on each text by choosing A,B,C or D.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Text 1Whenever Catherine Brown, a 37-year.old journalist, and her friends,professionals in their 30s and early 40s,meet at a London cafa ,their favorite topic of conversation is relationships:men’s reluctance to commit,wo men’s independence,and when to have children--or,increasingly,whether to have them at all.“With the years passing my chances of having a child go down,but I Won’t malty anyone just to have a child,”says Brown.To people like Brown,babies are great _if the timing is right.But they’re certainly not essential.In much of the world,having kids is no longer a given.“Never before has childlessness been an understandable decision for women and men in so many societies,” says Frank Hakim at the London School of Economics.Young people are extending their child—free adulthood by postponing children until they are well into their 30s.or even40s and beyond.A growing share are ending up with no children at all.Lifetime childlessness in western Germany has hit 30 percent among university—educated women,and is rapidly rising among lower—class men.In Britain,the number of women remaining childless has doubled in 20 years.The latest trend of childlessness does not follow historic patterns.For centuries it was not unusual for a quarter of European women to remain childless.But in the past.Childlessness was usually the product of poverty or disaster.of missing men in times of war.Today the decision to have—or not have——a child is the result of a complex combination of factors,including relationships,career, Opportunities,life style and economics.In some cases childlessness among women can be seen as a quiet form of protest.In Japan,support for working mothers hardly exists.Childcare is expensive,men don’t help out,and some companies strongly discourage mothers from returning to work.“In Japan,it's career or child,”says writer KaoriHaishi.It’s not just women who are deciding against children;according to a recent study,Japanese men are even less inclined to marry or want achild.Their motivations,though,may have more to do with economic factors.46.Catherine Brown and her friends feel that having children is not__________.[A]totally wise[B]a huge problem[C]a rational choice[D]absolutely necessary47.It Can be inferred that,for many women,having babies nowadays is__________.[A]a hard commitment[B]helpful to their career[C]essential for happiness[D]an understandable decision48.In the old days。

They didn't know how to use English properly. Seen them eating round pieces of beef and asked what it was, the Germans didn't understand the questions exactly, they answered: “we come from Hamburg. “One of the Americans was an owner of a restaurant and got an idea.

Secondly, we should pay essential attention to our moral character. We should be always willing to help those in trouble without any complaints.

And nobody can work out every problem without help of partners. So the youth should and must learn how to live and work well with others, including those people you don't like to cooperate or communicate with.
