大一英语上学期期末考试卷
2010级大学英语第一学期期末考试(A卷)Jan., 2011Part II Reading Comprehension(30 %)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choicesmarked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through thecenter.Passage OneScience is not a set of unquestionable results but a way of understanding the world around us. Its real work is slow. The scientific method , as many of us learned in school, is a gradual process that begins with a purpose or problem or question to be answered. It includes a list of materials, a procedure to follow, a set of observations to make and, finally, conclusions to reach. In medicine, when a new drug is proposed that might cure or control a disease, it is first tested on a large random group of people, and their reactions are then compared with those of another random group not given the drug. All reactions in both groups are carefully recorded and compared, and the drug is evaluated. All of this takes time and patience.It’s the result of course, that makes the best news—not the years of quiet work that characterize the bulk of scientific inquiry. After an experiment is concluded or an observation is made, the result continues to be examined critically. When it is submittedfor publication, it goes to a group of the scientist’s colleagues, who review the work. Einstein was right when he said: “No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right, a single experiment can at any time prove me wrong.”In August 1996, NASA announced the discovery in Antarctica of a meteorite（流星）from Mars that might contain evidence of ancient life on another world. As President Clinton said that day, the possibility that life existed on Mars billions of years ago was potentially one of the great discoveries of our time.After the excitement wore down and initial papers were published, other researchers began looking at samples from the same meteorite. Some concluded that the “evidence of life” was mostly contamination from Antarctic ice or that there was nothing organic at all in the rock.Was this a failure of science, as some news reports trumpeted?No! It was a good example of the scientific method working the way it is supposed to. Scientists spend years on research, announce their findings, and these findings are examined by other scientists. That’s how we learn. Like climbing a mountain, we struggle up three feet and fall back two. It’s a process filled with disappointments and reverses, but somehow we keep moving ahead.21. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to state that ____________.A) most scientific discoveries are not reliableB) mass media is misleading because it looks at the research results onlyC) scientific research is a process filled with reverses and requires slow andpatientworkD) repeated experiments are necessary before medicine can be used in patients22. Publication of a scientific finding signifies __________.A) a challenge to fellow scientists to prove it wrongB) the end of a processC) the beginning of a new scientific inquiryD) the soundness of the result23. Einstein’s words are used to show that he thought___________.A) experiments have proved him rightB) scientists do not need so many experimentsC) one experiment is not enough to prove him wrong.D) scientific ideas are never free from challenge24. NASA’s announcement of the discovery of evidence of ancient life on Mars shows_________.A) the way human beings learn about natureB) the failure of the scientific methodC) the fruitlessness of human search for life on another worldD) the excitement brought by scientific findings25. It can be inferred from the passage that the media is interested in __________.A) the process of scientific researchB) the results of scientific researchC) the scientists who do the researchD) the effects of scientific research on human lifePassage TwoNormally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and another during his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposesa constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.26. Normally a student would at least attend __________classes each week.A) 36B) 12C) 20D) 1527. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.A) to live in a different universityB) to take a particular course in a different universityC) to live at home and drive to classesD) to get two degrees from two different universities28. American university students are usually under pressure of work because_________.A) their academic performance will affect their future careersB) they are heavily involved in student affairsC) they have to observe university disciplineD) they want to run for positions of authority29.Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probablybecause_________.A) they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB) they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC) such positions help them get better jobsD) such positions are usually well paid30. The student organizations seem to be effective in _________.A) dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB) ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC) evaluating students’ performance by bringing them before a courtD) keeping up the students’ enthusiasm for social activitiesPassage ThreeDoreen Sykora is now a junior at Mcgill University. She had a difficult time when she first began college. She said, “I was always well prepared for my examinations. But I would go in to class to take the exam, and I would fall apart. I could not answer thequestions correctly-----even though I knew the answers! I would just blank out because of nervousness and fear.”Hitoshi Sakamoto, an anthropology student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety. Because a student worries and is stressed about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly because of the severe tension and nervousness.Now there are special university courses to help students. In these courses, advisors and psychologists try to help students by teaching them to manage test anxiety. Such a course helps students learn to live with stress and not fail because of it. First students take a practice test to measure their worry level. If the tests show that their stress level is high, the students can take a short course to manage the fear. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies. They get training to become calm in very tense situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work more easily. Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.Doreen Sykora saw immediate results after taking such a course. She now has enthusiasm about the relaxation methods. “Mostly, what I do is imagine myself in a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and carefully. I breathe easily and let all the tension out. With each breath, more worry leaves me. It really works too. My grades have improved greatly! I’m really doing well at McGill now. This relaxation method works not only on examinations, but it has improved the rest of my life as well.”For Hitoshi in T okyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a lot more and learning more.31. Doreen Sykora and Hitoshi Sakamoto were filled with nervousness and fear duringexaminations because they were__________.A) not ready and unaware of the answersB) physically so weak that they fell apartC) subject to test anxietyD) unable to write or think clearly32. The higher the students’ worry level is, __________.A) the less calm and relaxing they areB) the more difficult they will be trained to manage fearC) the more stressed and tense they areD) the longer courses they will take to manage fear33. What’s the purpose of some special university student-help courses?A) T o help students to reduce test anxiety.B) To show a stress level experienced by students.C) T o learn more knowledge about test anxiety.D) T o have a better understanding of test anxiety.34. What’s the meaning of “blank out” in paragraph one?A) T o be like a blanket.B) To be sure of an answer.C) T o be relaxed.D) T o be unable to think clearly.35.Which of the following best sums up the organization of the passage?A) Examples----theories----ideas.B) Problem----strategy----examples----results.C) General statement----examples----result.D) Strategy----experiment----examples.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (15 %) Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Reading ComprehensionDirections: Read the following passages carefully and do the multiple-choice questions. Questions 21 to 25are based on the following passage.A boy between the ages of 6 and 14 still admires his mother and has plenty to learn from her.But his interests are changing – he is becoming more interested in what men have to offer.A boy knows he is turning into a man. He has to learn from a man to complete his development.The father's job is to step in over time. If there is no father around, then the child depends more on finding other men – at school, for example. Yet men are leaving teaching, especially in primary schools. This is a problem.They insisted, too, that they needed lots of extra support. Throughout primary school years and into high school, boys should spend a lot of time with their fathers and mothers, getting their help, learning how to do things and enjoying their company.With regard to feelings, at this stage the father is more important. The boy is ready to learn from his father and listens to what he has to say. Often he will take more notice of his father. It's enough to drive a mother wild!Now is a good time for a father to do “little” things: playing in the yard on summerevenings, going for walks, telling stories about life, telling him about his own youth, working on hobbies or sports together for the enjoyment of doing it. This is the time when good memories are laid down that will be healthy to your son, and you, for years to come.Although every boy is different, it's common for boys at this age to get a little argumentative（好争论的）, restless and moody（闹情绪）. It's not that they are turning bad –just that they are being born into a new self and birth always means struggle.I believe this is the age when we fail teenagers the most. In our society all we offer those in the middle teens is "more of the same": more school. So it's little wonder that problems arise.21. According to the passage a boy needs the help of ______ to develop well.A.his mother onlyB. his father onlyC. neither his mother nor his fatherD. both his mother and father22. One problem for a boy's development is that ______.A. there are fewer men teaching in primary schoolsB. here are fewer women teaching in primary schoolsC. the boy's interests are changingD. the boy wants to act as a man23. The good time for a father to have an influence on his son is _______.A. when the boy is 14B. when the boy is at primary schoolC. from about age 6 to the 14th birthdayD. since the boy was born24. By the middle teens boys argue often with their parents. This means ___.A. they are turning badB. they are turning goodC. they are being born into a new selfD. they are rebelling against their parents25. The main idea of this passage is that ____________.A. fathers play an equal role in raising boysB. mothers should feel comfortable when their sons' interests are changingC. without fathers mothers can raise good menD. fathers should stay with their sons as much as possibleQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Yukio is a twenty-four year old Japanese businessman. A few months ago, his company sent him to work at its New York City office for half a year. This was his first experience living in the United States.Yukio thought New York City was very exciting, but he also found it very strange. It was difficult for him to get used to it. He found it strange to be with people from so many different races. He sometimes found American people very direct, open and honest though at the same he felt curious about them. He wished he could become friends with some Americans, but hewasn't sure how to get along with them. Most of the time, he felt very lonely and missed Japan.But soon some sunshine came into his life. A new clerk came to work in his office part-time. She was American, as were most of the clerks in his office. Her name was Cindy. She was very clever, friendly and good-looking. Cindy was also a student studying business. Cindy and Yukio got along very well. They talked together whenever possible. Cindy told Yukio her dreams of having a successful business.

However, we also have discovered that it is rather important to encourage people to make full use of their powers of visual imagery (影像). Then how do we develop our visual thinking? Here are some techniques.See actions and movement in your mind’s eye. Try to imagine these actions: You arrive home, you go to your door, put your key in the lock and open the door.

It is a useful techn ique and one which can be improved with practice.Hear, smell, taste and touch… in your mind. Try to close your eyes and see if you can hear, feel, taste and smell in your mind. Imagine pulling on rope. You hear the roar of the sea. Your bare feet are on the hot sand. The taste of salt is in the air. Now, you are no longer pulling；you are waving. The hot, soft sand is changing into hard, rough concrete.The sea no longer roars; you hear screaming tires of cars before they hit something. With practice, we can make enough use of our ability to imagine the whole range of our senses.Create new objects and actions. Creative people must be able to imagine objects, people and scenes. They must also be able to imagine new combinations and relations.Imagine a washing machine. You open the door and clothes fly our one after another. They dance in the air in front of you.

Over the years I fondly thought of him as my “Valentine Man”.At the age of six, on Valentine’s Day morning, I got a card signed “Love, Dad” for the first time and a gift of a ring with a small piece of red glass. As I grew older, the gifts gave way to heart-shaped boxes filled with my favorite chocolates and always included a special card signed “Love, Dad”. Year by year, the cards seemed less important, and I thought the valentine would always be there. I had placed my hopes and dreams in receiving cards and gifts from “important others”, and “Love, Dad” just didn’t seem quite enough.If my father knew then that he had been replaced, he never let it show. If he sensed any disappointment over valentines that didn’t arrive from me, he just tried that much harder to create a positive atmosphere, giving me an extra hug and doing what he could to make my day a little brighter.On Valentine’s Day eight years ago I received a card addressed to me in my mother’s handwriting. On the inside, my mother had printed “Happy Valentine’s Day” and my father had signed “Love, Dad”. It was the kind of card that put tears in m y eyes because I knew this would be the last I would receive from him.His final card remains on my desk today. It’s a reminder of how special fathers can be and how important it has been to me over the years to know that I had a father who continued a tradition of love with simple acts of understanding and had the ability to express happiness to the people in his life.36.Why did the writer think of her father as her “Valentine Man” over the years?A.
