Americans are getting ready for the biggest soccer event in the world. For the first time the world cup soccer competition will be held in the United States. While millions play the game around the world, soccer or football has only recently become popular here. It is only in the last 30 years that large numbers of young Americans became interested in soccer. Now it is the fastest growing sport in the country. A recent study found that almost 18 million young boys and girls play soccer in the United States.The study also found that soccer is beginning to replace more traditional games like American football as the most popular sport among students. And so, when the world cup begins next week, more than one million Americans are expected to go and see the teams play. Organizers say this year's world cup will be the biggest ever. All the seats at most of the 52 games have already been sold.Soccer has been played in the United States for a little more than one hundred years. But how did the sport come to this country? And how long has it existed in other parts of the world? No one knows exactly where the idea for soccer came from, or when people began playing the game. Some scientists say there is evidence that ball games using the feet were played thousands of years ago. There is evidence that ancient Greeks and Romans and native American Indians all played games similar to soccer.Most experts agree that Britain is the birthplace of modem soccer. They also agree that the British spread the game around the world. Unlike the game today, which uses balls of man-made material or leather, early soccer balls were often made of animal stomachs. The rules of early soccer games also differed from those we have today.1.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the text?[A] Americans were preparing for the world cup when the author wrote this article.[B] More younger Americans became interested in soccer in the last 30 years.[C] Soccer is the fastest developing sport in the world.[D] The article was written before the world cup held in the United States.2.Which was the most popular sport as a traditional game among students?[A] Basketball.[B] American football.[C] Soccer.[D] Tennis.3.For how long has soccer been played in the United States?[A] About a hundred years.[B] About fifty years.[C] Only recently.[D] About thirty years.4.Who invented the modem soccer game?[A] American Indians. [B] British. [C] Geeks [D] Romans.5.What is the author going to state in the next paragraph?[A] There have been attempts to start a professional soccer organization in the U. S.[B] In the 12th century soccer games in Britain often involved whole towns.[C] Professional soccer grew quickly in Europe.[D] Experts believed that the United States would win.。

英语等级考试pets3阅读练习 1Part BDirections:Read the following article in which five people talk about smoking. For questions 36-40, match the name of each person to one of the statements (A-G)given below. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Richard:In my opinion, smoking is only an amusement, like playing cards, reading, etc. Many years ago, when an adult handed me a cigarette and lit it for me, I felt grown up. When I am with friends and have nothing to say, we smoke, consequently we no longer feel embarrassed. Sometimes, I light a cigarette, suffering and nervousness vanishing with the smoke, I cant help saying inwardlv: Hello, cigarette, mv old friend. Im coming to meet you againStanton:Many people believe smokers have the fight to smoke. But they also believe that others shouldnt have to pay a price. The risk of tobacco smoke is greater than the risk of radon gas is to non-smokers. Were talking maybe 40 percent greater. And if youre talking about all the carcinogenic air pollutants that EPA regulates, its 100 times greater.Davis:According to our investigation, tobacco smoke in the home and workplace could be killing 46,000 non-smokers each year in the United States. Thats 3,000 lung cancer deaths,11,000 from other cancers and 32,000 heart disease deaths. That would make passive smoking the leading preventable cause of death in the United States after alcohol and smoking itself. Smoking kills 390,000 while alcohol 120,000.James :Passive smoking has become the principal battleground for the tobacco industry and its opponents in the 1980s. It is no longer merely a health issue, but political and environmental. Cigarette pollution is fouling the air. According to the Environmental Protection Agencys indoor air programs result, we know that the indoor environment is far more polluted than the outdoor environment. Weve seen that again and again wherever weve looked all over the United States.Winston:Sir, another fact about smoking is that cigarettes give people a good deal of pleasure. There is considerable evidence, surprisingly little publicized, showing that smoking produces certain beneficial effects in human beings. Smoking counteracts some decrease in efficiency, and smokers improve their performance in complex situations while smoking. There is also evidence showing that nicotine can produce a tranquilizing effect during high emotional and shock situations, while on the other hand stimulating concentration in tedious situations.Now match each of the items(36 to 40)to the appropriate statementNote: There are two extra statements.Statements36. Richard A. Passive smoking is the third preventable cause of death.37. Stanton B. Smokers have the fight to smoke.38. Davis C. Smoking produces some positive effects in some complex situations.39. James D. Second-hand smoke is more harmful to non-smokers than those cancer inducing air pollutants40. WinstonE. Cigarette pollution has caused outdoor environment even worse.F. Smoking can help people get rid of nervousness.G. Smoking is also an environmental issue.PartB下面是五个人对吸烟问题的不同观点。

It really is extraordinary that after all these years, educationists have still failed to device anything more efficient and reliable than examinations. 我们可能对学科的每个领域所取得的进步感到大为惊异,然而测试一个人的学问和力量的方法依旧原始如初。

的确是令人惊讶,这么多年以后,教育家们还没有找到比考试更为有效和牢靠的手段。

For all the pious claim that examinations test what you know, it is common knowledge that they more often do the exact opposite. They may be a good means of testing memory, or the knack of working rapidly under extreme pressure, but they can tell you nothing about a person’s true ability and aptitude.考试就是测验你知道什么,对于全部这些虔诚的说法,普遍认为往往适得其反。

考试可能是检验记忆力,或者在极度紧急的状况下发觉快速工作窍门的好方法。

英语等级pets三级翻译考试专项训练题英语等级pets三级翻译考试专项训练题actions speak louder than words.以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的英语等级pets三级翻译考试专项训练题,希望对正在关注的您有所帮助!When it comes to air pollution, the simple life isn’t necessarily the safest. The most poisonous atmosphere in Asia is found not in rapidly modernizing cities like New Delhi or Beijing but inside the kitchens of homes in rural Asia. Millions of families in the countryside heat their abodes and cook with open fires using cheap fuels that belch carbon monoxide and other noxious fumes at level up to 500 times international safety limits. Rural women and children often spend hours each day in poorly, ventilated kitchens, breathing this putrid air. “This is a problem that has been around forever, as long as humankind has existed, but it’s been ignored,” says Eva Rehfuess, a World Health Organization expert on indoor air pollution. “If you walked into these kitchens, your eyes would start tearing and you would find it difficult to breathe. It’s terrible. ”The WHO estimates that indoor air pollution cause 1.6 million deaths per year in developing countries around the world, up to 555,000 of which occur in India alone-and overwhelmingly it’s the poor who are dying. Villagers have no choice but to use wood, coal or dung fires, raising the risk that young children will be killed by carboj-monoxide poisoning or a bad case of pneumonia ravaging weakened lungs. Likewise, the women who typically keep their home fires burning are vulnerable to chronic respiratory diseases. “Day in and day out for 50 years, some of these women might be cooking six hours a day, exposed topollutions,” says Rehfuess.Curtailing indoor air pollution can be as simple as replacing open wood fires with better-ventilated cookstoves, but more sophisticated stoves can cost up to $120. China and India, home to the world’s largest rural populations, have launched ambitious national programs in recent decades to supply villagers with safer stoves at subsidized prices. But the programs have not always worked, in India, for example, some 33 million stoves were given out free to villagers in rural areas from 1984 to 2000—but because of a lack of health education or follow-up maintenance, most families abandoned the cookstoves for their old fires within a few years.That’s left nongovernmental organizations like the shell Foundation to step into the gap. It has begun a pilot program with local Indian NGOs in a pair of rural states to develop and market clean, wood-burning stoves that cost just $5-$10 yet can reduce emissions by up to 40%. The project is on track to sell 1000,000 stoves by the end of 2005, and the groups plan to expand the program nationally in the future. Program manager Karen Westley says Shell and its partner NGOs made an effort to sell their customers not just more efficient tools but also the idea that different is better. “You have to make sure people actually want that damn thing,” says Westely. “They need to make the connection between having a better stove, breathing less smoke and experiencing better health in the end.”But habits ingrained by tradition can be hard to break. “They’ve been living with this always, and so have their mothers and grandmothers,” says Rehfuess. “You have to give people the felling they can do something about it.” And that they’ll breathe a lot easier for their trouble.参考译文:说到空气污染,并不是说简单的日常生活就必然是最安全的。

公共英语三级试题及答案一. 阅读理解阅读下面的短文,然后根据短文内容回答问题。

Passage 1Most plants and animals have a basic behavior pattern. For them, everything can be described in terms of a cycle. Some cycles are long, such as the cycle of growth from birth to death. Others are short, like the daily cycle of sleeping and waking. These basic cycles are linked to yearly changes in the weather.Plants respond to seasonal changes so that they can survive. In the spring, plants grow new leaves and flowers, and they produce seed. By the fall, the leaves of many plants lose their green coloring and turn yellow, red, or brown. Other plants lose leaves as soon as they start to go dormant. Some animals respond to fall by moving to new areas.Days grow shorter through the fall and winter. In spring, the days become longer, and by summer the days are their longest again. Most animals are born in the spring and summer but not in the fall or winter. Some animals, such as bears, prepare for winter by eating extra food in the fall. They sleep for long periods of time during the winter.1. What type of behavior pattern do most plants and animals have?2. How do plants respond to seasonal changes?3. What do animals like bears do to prepare for winter?答案:1. Most plants and animals have a basic behavior pattern.2. Plants respond to seasonal changes by growing new leaves and flowers, producing seeds, and losing their leaves.3.

Democracy and personal liberty are not limitless, and they are under the control of certain conditions. It is known that in most parts of the world, the relation between population and resources is already unfavorable and will probably become even more unfavorable in the future.民主和个人自由并非没有界限,而是受到某些条件的制约。

众所周知,在世界绝大多数地方,人口和资源的关系已经非常不利,而且将来可能会更加不利。

The unbalanced relation between population and resources makes the growing poverty more deteriorat-ing. This growing poverty constitutes a permanent menace to peace. And not only to peace, but also to democratic institutions and personal liberty. For over-population is not compatible with freedom. An unfavor-able relationship between numbers and recourses tends to make the earning of a living almost intolerably difficult. Labor is more abundant than goods, and the individual is forced to work long hours for little pay. The un­friendly nature or the equally unfriendly wielders of po­litical and economic power enable labor to have no sur­plus of accumulated purchasing power. 人口和资源之间不平衡的关系,使得不断增长的贫困现象更加恶化。

不断增长的贫困,不仅对世界和平构成永久的威胁,而且还对民主设置和个人自由造成损害。

因为过多人口就不能自由地和谐相处。

人口数和资源间的不利关系,往往使得谋生达到几乎无法忍受的困难程度。

劳动力比商品更加丰富,个人为获得可怜的工资被迫工作更长的时间。

不友善的自然或者同样不友善的政治、经济权力的掌控者,使得劳动力没有剩余的购买力。

Democracy is, among other thin gs, the ability to say “no” to the boss. As a man lives in a society confining to a govern­ment, he can’t say “no” to the boss, unless he is sure of being able to eat when the boss’s favor has been with­drawn. And he cannot be certain of his next meal un­l ess he owns the means of producing enough wealth for his family to live on, or has been able to accumulate sur-plus out of past wages. If he had a chance of moving to virgin territories, where he could make a fresh start, he would be able to say “no”to the boss, but there is no free land. 民主有别于其他事情,是对老板说“不”的能力。

作为一个生活在受政府支配的社会中的人,除非他确信没有政府的恩惠他也能够吃饱,除非他拥有的财产能足够满足家庭生存,或者从过去工资中积累了可观的剩余,否则是不会对老板说不的。

如果他有机会迁到未开垦的疆域,一切可以重新开始,他甘愿对老板说“不”,但世上并没有自由国。

In an overcrowded country, very few people own enough to make them financially independent; very few people are in a position to accumulate purchasing power. Moreover, in any country
where population presses hard upon natural resources, the general eco-nomic situation is apt to be so precarious that govern-ment control of capital and labor, production and con-sumption, becomes inevitable. It results that democratic ideals will not work in conditions of poverty and extreme social unrest.
在人口过度拥挤的国家,很少人拥有能够在经济上保持独立的财产,很少人的购买力能够不断增长。

而且,在任何国家,如果人口给自然资源带来巨大压力,那么,普遍的经济状况就会趋于不稳定,政府对资本、劳动力、生产和消费的控制就不可避免。

其结果是在贫困和极度社会动荡条件下,民主理念不起作用。
