新视野英语2级复习题
新视野英语2级复习题Reading ComprehensionPassage 1Someone said to a man, “Travel and see the world.” He answered, “Why should I? People are the same everywhere. They are born. They are babies. They are children. They are adults. They grow old. They die. They have the same feelings. They feel love and hate, happiness and sadness, security and fear, pride and shame. That is why I do not want to travel. I can learn everything here. I’m going to stay home.”The man was right. He was also wrong. People are the same, but people are also different. They all have the same pattern of life—birth, youth, old age, death. But these stages of life have different values in different cultures. Also, while all people have the same feelings, the causes of these feelings are different. A situation that may bring happiness in one place may not bring happiness in another place.Fro example, in many countries old age is a happy time. Young people in these countries show respect to the old people. In Korea, old people are honored and respected. When they are too old to live alone, they live with a son, daughter, or other relative. When they become sixty-one years old, it is a very happy and important event. There is a big party with many guests. They receive many gifts. When people reach this time in life, the attitudes of their family and their community change toward them. Everyone looks forward to this time.In the United States, it is quite different for old people… Most old people do no live with their children or relatives. For many North Americans, old age is not a happy time. Most North Americans want to stay young. They try to act like young people as long as possible. They even try to speak the language of the young. They do not like to grow old because they will not get honor or respect of attention. Also, businesses do not want old people to work for them. So, old people usually live alone and they do not have many things to do. Old age can be a sad and lonely time for them.1) The reason why the man did not have the intention of traveling was that ______.A. he thought he already knew about people in other placesB. he was too old to travel any moreC. he could not understand people in other countries since he was deafD. he preferred to stay home to enjoy his leisure time2) Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. People all over the world are the same, but they are also different.B. Different values are reflected in different stages of life in different cultures.C. People react differently to the same situation.D. The reasons for the same feelings are also the same in different cultures.3) In Korea, people ______.A. think being young is the same as being oldB. are afraid of old ageC. are longing for old ageD. value their youth most4) Compared with American old people, the old in Korea ______.A. enjoy living alone and supporting themselvesB. can lead an honored and respected lifeC. can act like the youngD. are not respected and do not receive due attention5) The word “businesses” in Paragraph 4 means ______.A. managersB. consumersC. shops or factoriesD. busy peoplePassage 2Do you find getting up in the morning so difficult that it’s painful? 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 you labor through your work you may say that you are “hot”. That’s true. The time of day when you feel most energetic (精力充沛的)is when your cycle of body temperature is at this peak (高峰). For some people the peak comes during the morning. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads to such familiar words as: “Get up, John! You’ll be late for work again!” The possible explanation to the trouble is he 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 it better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway. Counteract (对抗)your cycle to some extent by habitually (习惯性地)staying up later than you want to. If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day, rise before your usually 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 (呵欠)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 tasks requiring more energy for your sharper hours.1) Dr. Kleitman thinks that ______.A. getting up late in the morning means laziness.B. if your energy peak is in the evening, you might like getting up earlyC. people can do nothing about energy cycleD. spending some time yawning and stretching helps to keep your energetic2) According to the passage, family quarrels may result from ______.A. the same energy cycle of family membersB. unawareness of different energy cyclesC. failing to get up early in the morningD. knowledge of energy cycles3) If you are used to getting up late in the morning, you are likely to be most energetic ______.A. in the morningB. at noonC. in the afternoonD. in the evening4) What’s the likely relationship between energy cycle and body temperature?A. Energy cycle and body temperature are the same things.B. The higher your temperature is, the less energetic you are.C. The higher your temperature is, the more energetic you are.D. There is no direct relation between them.5) Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. One can change his energy cycle once he makes up his mind.B. We still don’t know why people have different energy cycles.C. Habit will help to make our life fit energy cycles better.D. If you rise earlier than usual, you will be more efficient at your low point in the morning.Passage 3Here are sic questions about your approach to life. Try to answer them as honestly as you can.Are you hard driving and competitive?Are you usually pressed for time?Do you want to control others?Do you have a strong need to do better than others in most things?Do you eat too quickly?Do you get upset when you have to wait for anything?If you have answered “yes” to most of these questions, then I can make a few predictions (预测)about you, based on a recent eight-year study of nearly two thousand people who live the way that you do.You likely find that life is full of challenges and you often need to keep two or more projects moving at the same time. The chances are that you have been to college, that you have a management job and that you bring work home at night. You think that you put more effort into your job than many of the people you work with, and you certainly take your work more seriously than most of them. You get angry easily, and if someone is being long-winded (拐弯抹角的), you help them get to the point. You also have trouble finding the time to get your hair cut.And there’s one other thing. Your are about twice as likely to have a heart attack as someone who takes a more easygoing (心平气和的)approach to life.The beginnings of your hard-driving behavior go right back to childhood. In school you got recognition and perhaps prized for being quick and bright, for being an achiever, for competing with others and for winning. You likely went on from school to get a series of increasingly better jobs against pretty stiff competition. They were jobs where you had to care about the results, where you constantly had to push things forward and get things done. In your present job you also feel some conflict, either with time or with other people. Some of those you work with don’t seem able to understand the simplest ideas, and they often put a brake (约束)on what you’re trying to achieve. The conflict may not take place every day. You pride yourself on being able to keep the lid on. But it’s always there, under the surface.1) If your answers to above question are “yes”, you are likely to ______.A. enjoy your food at dinnerB. be good listenersC. wait a few seconds before answering a questionD. have more chances to suffer from a heart attack2) It can be concluded from the last paragraph that this hard-driving character ______.A. has been developed since childhoodB. may be changed by your experiencesC. will place no influence on your workD. enables you to be a successful person3) Which of the following words is NOT appropriate to describe this type of people?A. Competitive.B. Nervous.C. Easygoing.D. Ambitious.4) What is implied in the last paragraph?A. The lid will always remain in place.B. The conflict may occur any moment.C. The situation is always under your control.D. You are able to solve the problem.5) The main idea of the passage is ______.A. why competitive people are more likely to succeed in their careerB. how people can relax themselvesC. why hard-driving people are likely to have a heart attackD. how personality affects your attitude toward lifePassage 4According to a report of the World Health Organization, this year will see 2.6 million deaths from AIDS, the highest yearly international total since the disease began to take hold (占优势)in the late 1970s, despite questionable antiretro-viral (抗逆转录酶病毒药)drugs that staved off (延迟)AIDS deaths in the richer countries.As things stood, the number of deaths was likely to increase for many years before peaking. The report said about half of all people who acquired HIV become infected before they turned 25 and usually died before their 35th birthdays of AIDS, which destroys the body’s immune methods.Although ninety-five percent of people with HIV live in the developing world, battling HIV rates was still a challenge in the developed countries of the West, where there are “very worrying facts” that safe sex practices are dropping among gays.While AIDS deaths in the United Stated dropped by 42 percent between 1996 and 1997, the figure dropped by only half that between 1997 and the last year.The report added that in Eastern Europe and Central Asia, the number of infected people had risen by a third this year, to 360,000.This was mainly due to an increase in the use of infected needles to inject (注射)drugs in Russia and the Ukraine. More than 2,700 cases of HIV were reported in Moscow in the first nine months of this year.Although cases of HIV remain relatively low in the Middle East, increasing use of injected drugs accounted for two thirds of new HIV cases in Bahrain last year, half in Iran and more than a third in Tunisia.1) According to the passage above, which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The number of people infected with HIV is increasing.B. Some new drugs can kelp delay AIDS deaths in countries where AIDS cases are found.C. There are more people who died of AIDS worldwide this year than any other year in the past.D. Most people with HIV live in the developing world.2) According to the passage, AIDS deaths next year will probably be ______.A. as many as those this yearB. droppingC. on the riseD. unknown to all3) AIDS is a life-threatening disease because ______.A. it makes people unable to fight infectionB. it kills the largest number of peopleC. it has the longest historyD. more and more people are killed by AIDS4) Which of the following is NOT stated in the passage?A. Nearly half of the people were infected with HIV before they were in their middle twenties.B. HIV is no longer threatening in Western countries.C. The majority of people carrying HIV live in developing countries.D. The peak of AIDS death has not arrived yet.5) There has been an increase in the number of people infected with HIV in Eastern Europe and Central Asia mainly because ______.A. most people were infected when staying in developed countries in the pastB. there were more cases of HIV presentC. in some countries more injected needles were used for the infection of drugs.D. HIV reports were written with more points in these countriesPassage 5We have saved as a final set of emotions (情感), the two most important emotions connected with other people: love and its opposite, hate. Love can be seen everywhere. Yet surprisingly, love has been the subject of less scientific research than other emotions, such as anger and fear. The reason for this may be twofold. First, love is a very complex (复杂)emotion, difficult to describe and measure. Secondly, unlike many radical emotions, radical love is generally not a problem; thus less medical attention has been paid to it.What is love? This is a complex question and requires a complex answer. Love is a strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing. But it is more than this. It also involves feeling of caring, protection, excitement, and tenderness (温和). When two people are in love, they feel drawn to one another; they greatly enjoy each other’s company; and they may be sexually attracted to one another.Sometimes it is easier to think in terms of different kinds of love: romantic love, brotherly love, and so forth. Though they are different in some respects, they share one important characteristic: a strong positive feeling toward another.Our feelings toward other people are often complex. We may love someone and, at the same time, be angry with him. Or we may love someone, even though we are jealous of him. We might even love someone and, at the same time, hat for some precise reason.Hate is a strong negative emotion toward someone, and is due to anger, jealousy, or some other factor. Like love, hat can be a very strong emotion. It can also be very dangerous. The question is often asked, “Is it bad to hate?”The best answer is probably “sometimes yes and sometimes no.” Usually hate does not help us; it makes us feel unhappy and makes us do things that may hurt others. However, sometimes it may be necessary to hate and hurt someone in order to protect loved ones.1) The word “saved” in the first sentence of this passage means ______.A. leftB. relaxedC. set freeD. kept up2) Love is a lasting, strong, positive attraction and feeling for another person or thing, the very opposite emotion of which is ______.A. angerB. fearC. jealousyD. hate3) Which characteristic is shared by different kinds of love?A. A strong negative emotion toward someone.B. A strong positive feeling toward another.C. Unhappy feeling toward someone.D. Jealous feeling toward someone.4) According to the passage, hat is caused by ______.A. anger, jealousy or some other factorsB. anger, danger and hurtC. caring, protection, excitement and tendernessD. complex, strong positive emotion5) Which of the following is true?A. Love has been the subject of less scientific research because it is too simple and emotion.B. Radical love is so difficult to describe and measure that less medical attention ahs been paidto it.C. To hat is always too bad.D. We can have at the same time two opposite feelings for another.Passage 6Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a great deal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personal worth, for self-esteem (自尊心)is the basis of a good mental health. A youngster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighter brothers, sister, or cousins, will not feel confident and become so afraid of failing, that he (or she) won’t try at all. Of course, they should be corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But the criticisms should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself; it’s like being in a car without brakes (刹车). The parent who says “No” when other parents say “Yes” send a double message. He is also saying: “I love you, and I am ready to risk your anger, because I don’t want you to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body, and enough information about set to balance the wrong information that they will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy (隐私权)and respect for their personal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted, not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a mother feels that she must read her daughter’s diary to know what is going on, the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to build their lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinions of others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The best way to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie. A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towels from a hotel will think that it is all right to steal. A youngster who see no laughter and no love in the home will have a difficult time laughing and loving.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owe the child something. And if you give him his due, he’ll have something of value to pass along to your grandchildren.1) According to the passage, parents owe their children the following things EXCEPT ______.A. carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. information about their body2) The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because ______.A. they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB. there is no one to guide and discipline themC. they are afraid of being left aloneD. there is no one to ask for help when in trouble3) Which of the following ways is advised for parents to show love to their children?A. Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask for.B. Never embracing older children.C. Refusing something to their children.D. Never criticizing children.4) The word “due” in the last paragraph means______.A. something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB. reasonable explanation(s) or plan(s)C. what must be given to someone because it is right or owingD. the money to be paid5) Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own lives at an early age.B. Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C. Children shouldn’t be corrected because it destroys their self-esteem.D. It is better to compare a youngster to his brighter brothers because it makes him try harder.Passage 7Reading is thought to be a kind of conversation between the reader and the text. The reader puts questions, as it were, to the text and gets answers. In the light of theses he puts further questions, and so on.For most of the time this “conversation” goes on below the level of consciousness. At times, however, we become aware of it. This is usually when we are running into difficulties, when mismatch is occurring between expectations and meaning. When successful matching is being experienced our questioning of the text continues at the unconscious level.Different people converse with the text differently. Some stay very close to the words on the page; others take off imaginatively from the words, interpreting, criticizing, analyzing and examining. The latter represents higher level of comprehension. The balance between these is important, especially for advanced readers.There is another conversation which from out point of view is equally important, and that has not to do with what is read but with how it is read. We call this a “process”conversation as opposed to a “content” conversation. It is concerned not with meaning but with the strategies we employ in reading. If we are an advanced reader our ability to hold a content conversation with a text is usually pretty well developed. Not so our ability to hold a process conversation. It is precisely this kind of conversation that is of importance when we are seeking to develop ourreading to meet the new demands being placed upon us by studying at a higher level.1) Reading as a kind of conversation between the reader and the text becomes conscious only when ______.A. the reader has trouble understanding what the author saysB. the reader’s expectation agree with what is said in the textC. the reader asks questions and gets answersD. the reader understands a text very well2) At a lower level of comprehension, readers tend to ______.A. read a text slowlyB. read without thinking hardC. interpret a text in their own wayD. concentrate on the meaning of words only3) A “process” conversation has to do with ______.A. the development of our ability to check the detailsB. matching our expectations with the meaning of a textC. the application of reading strategiesD. determining the main idea of a text4) According to the author, ______ is of great importance for readers.A. lower and higher levels of comprehensionB. the readers’ expectations and the meaning of a textC. conscious and unconscious levels of comprehensionD. interpreting and criticizing a text5) If we want to develop our reading ability at an advanced level, we should ______.A. pay more attention to the content of a textB. make our reading process more consciousC. learn to use different approaches in reading different textsD. take a critical attitude towards the author’s ideasPassage 8Within about 50 million years, one of the mammals (哺乳动物)that lives in a marine environment, the whale (鲸), has developed into the largest of all animal forms. However, at least for the last 150 years, trouble has closed in on whales from humans.Whales have been hunted since about the eleventh century. Certain types of whales have been hunted too much. Recently, their numbers has been reduced so greatly that they are in danger of becoming extinct (灭绝的). People are worried about the fact that the number of whales is getting smaller and smaller. They are working to save them.There are reasons why people want to protect the whales. One reason is that whales help to keep a balance between plants and animals. People have been throwing their wastes into the ocean and seas, and these wastes increase the amount of salt in ocean and seawater. The increased salt helps some plants and some very small creatures to grow but these plants and small creatures are harmful to fish. In addition, because fish supply necessary food for many people, whales become our good friends which we want to save.Some people are now working to save whales by using the law. They hold meetings to ask fishermen to reduce the number of whales which can be killed in a year. They also work withincountries to persuade law makers to make whaling against the law and to make the use of whale products against the law too.Now this struggle to save whales is going on in many places in the world. Some governments will not let people sell whale products in their countries. Other governments have changed the law about whaling. Many people believe that since the number of whales is regarded as a serious world problem, the remaining whales will be saved.1) The passage mainly discussed ______.A. the protection of whalesB. the strange behaviors of whalesC. the mysterious life of whalesD. the advantages of too many whales2) From the passage we know that during the last 150 years humans have ______.A. returned to natureB. learned how to swimC. threatened the existence of some marine mammalsD. begun to harvest certain plants from the ocean as food3) According to the passage, certain kinds of whales will soon ______.A. kill most of the plants and small creaturesB. find some other places to live inC. die outD. die from pollution4) Salt in the oceans usually ______.A. decreases the plants which are harmful to fishB. gets rid of harmful plants and creaturesC. removes the wastes thrown into themD. increases the plants and small creatures that do harm to fish5) Whales are helpful to humans because ______.A. they eat a large quantity of plants and creatures harmful to fishB. they make the oceans more and more saltyC. they often save sailors lost in a stormD. they can communicate with humans.Passage 9One of the strongest reasons for the raising of the school leaving age (ROSLA) has been that it will bring us nearer to the ideal of “equal opportunity”.Many people like to think of our present system of schooling as providing plenty of steps up the ladder of success for clever children. It would be good to think that no one who is really bright can be missed out when the state system is apparently so thorough. It is obvious, for instance, that many children from less rich homes reach university or do well in other ways.Unfortunately, we now have plenty of evidence that many children of every level of ability do much less well than they could. For instance, during the years of national military service it was possible to test the intelligence (智力)of all male 18-20 year olds. Half of those soldiers who were placed in the two highest ability groups had left schools at 15.It has also been shown that the percentage of working class children going to university is almost the same now as it was in 1939. One study of 5000 children from birth to 21 years old indicated that up to half the bright pupils from working class home left school when they reached16 years old. Moreover, there is no difference in intelligence between the sexes, but far more boys than girls stay in education after 16.It is clear from this and much other evidence that many children are still leaving school too early to benefit from the prizes—money, social respectability, and interesting jobs, which higher education gives. It is clear too that the reasons why such children leave have much to do with their social circumstances (情形,环境). Their parents often need the extra money another wage-earner can bring in; they do not value education for itself because their own was probably dull and unhappy. It is not so much that they force their sons and daughters to leave school, rather that they tend to say, “It’s up to you”.1) It is hoped that ROSLA will give all children ______.A. a more enjoyable time at schoolB. the same chances in societyC. the right to a better schoolD. higher scores in intelligence tests2) People would like to think that ______.A. equal numbers of poor and rich children reach universityB. those with the least money get the best educationC. intelligent children are always chosen by the systemD. only clever children do well3) Working class children are felt to be at a disadvantage because ______.A. many of the clever ones leave school earlyB. fewer go to university than ever beforeC. more than half leave school when they are 16D. fewer boys than girls stay at school after 164) Many children leave school early because ______.A. their social circumstances make them unhappyB. they have to work to support their family’s incomeC. their school is a dull and unhappy placeD. their parents don’t allow them to make their own decisions5) This article shows that equal opportunity in education ______.A. is a thing of the pastB. has not yet been achievedC. is there for those who merit itD. has greatly improved our societyPassage 10Throughout July 1945, the Japanese mainland, from Tokyo on Honshu northward to the coast of Hokkaido, were bombed as if an invasion were about to take place. In fact, something far more threatening was at hand, as the Americans were telling Stalin at Potsdam.In 1939 physicists in the United States had learned of experiments in Germany demonstrating the possibility of atomic power and understood the potential damage of an atomic bomb. On August 2, 1939, Albert Einstein warned President Roosevelt of the danger of Nazi Germany’s advances in development of the atomic bomb. Eventually, the U.S. Office of Scientific Research and Development was created in June 1941 and given combined responsibility with the war department in the Manhattan Project to develop a nuclear bomb.

They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language.4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with.5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs.6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before.7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary.8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.Ex.3 Words in use1.condense2.exceed3.deficit4.exposure5.asset6.adequate/doc/bd16152927.html,petent8.adjusting9.precisely 10.beneficialEx.4 Word building-al/-ial:managerial/editorial/substance/survival/tradition/margin -cy : consistency/accuracy/efficient-y : recovery/ministry/assemblyEx.5 Word building1.editorial2.recovery3.accuracy4.substance5.managerial6.margin7.assembly8.Ministry9.survival 10.tradition 11.consistency 12.efficientEx.6 Banked cloze1-5: L C J A I 6-10: O N E H FEx.7 Expressions in use1.feel obliged to2.be serious about3.run into4.distinguish between5.thrust upon6.was allergic to7.get lost8.be attracted to9.make sense 10.looked upon asEx.8 Structured writingSome bookworms in my dormitory often spend hours reading their “Bible”, Practical English Grammar, and do a lotof exercises in that book , but I don’t care about it at all. My assumption is since I have never learned Chinese grammar, what’s the sense of learning English grammar? In fact, English grammar has always been a big headache to me.English grammar is very complicated because, unlike Chinese, there are many verb tenses. Even stranger than verb tenses, English grammar also contains something very confusing. For example, I don’t remember how many times my middle school teacher tried to“impose”the differen ces between used to and be used to on us. Sometimes he would go on with the explanation for 20 minutes or so. He even summarized the differences by listing three or four points for us to memorize. However, they could never stay in my head . I don’t remembe r how many times I got it wrong with the sentences containing used to or be used to on my exams . I was really confused with these two phrases,and I can never get them right.In brief, I’m allergic to learning English grammar. Curiously, I just wonder if the native speakers of English have a microcomputer in their brain to help them utter the two phrases promptly with just a click of their brain mouse!Ex.9 E-C Translation人们普遍认为英语是一种世界语言,经常被许多不以英语为第一语言的国家使用。

Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are 1 reading 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.Passage 1Looking back on my childhood, I am convinced that naturalists are born and not made. Although we were brought up in the same way, my brothers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed (紧抱的) flowers and insects. Unlike them, I had no ear for music and languages. I was not an early reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary. I have only the dim memory of the house we lived in, of my room and my toys. Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins who gathered next door. But I do have a crystal-clear memory of the dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and, above all, the insects.I am a naturalist, not a scientist. I have a strong love of the natural world, and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations. I love discussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil while reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then something happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle (谜), because it all seems to fit together. This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books, which some might honor with the title of scientific research.But curiosity, a keen eye, a good memory and enjoyment of the animal and plant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and essential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scientist, up to a point, can be made. A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.1. According to the author, a born naturalist should first of all be ______.A. full of enthusiasmB. self-disciplinedC. full of ambitionD. knowledgeable2. The first paragraph tells us that the author ______.A. lost his hearing when he was a childB. didn’t like his brothers and sistersC. was born to a naturalist’s familyD. was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood3. The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist probably because he thinks he ______.A. just reads about other people’s observations and discoveriesB. comes up with solutions in most natural wayC. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmeticD. lacks some of the qualities required of a scientist4. The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because ______.A. he was fully occupied with observing natureB. he didn’t live very long with themC. the family was extremely largeD. he was too young when he lived with them5. Which of the following statements is true ______A. The author believes that a born naturalist cannot be a scientist.B. The author’s brothers and sisters were good at music and languages.C. The author read a lot of books about the natural world and the oil industry.D. The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.Passage 2Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F. D. R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students atStanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was at Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital, they are impatient to get on with life.The easiest way to foster kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation, which finances programs to promote innovation on campuses, noted that more than 5,000 entrepreneurship programs are offered on two- and four-year campuses-up from just 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell, a Kauffman vice president, says that the foundation is extending the reach of its academic influence, which used to be found only in business schools. Now, the concept of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical schools, and even in the liberal arts. “Our interest is in all the programs,” she says.“We need to spread out from the business school.”Either as class projects or on their own, students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas, writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and, often, market. In their spare time, students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses for bean; industrial design majors at Syracuse, in a special laboratory, create wearable technologies.The entrepreneurship movement has its critics' especially among those who see college as a time for extensive academic exploration. “I just don't thinkthat entrepreneurship ranks so high in terms of national: need,”says Daniel S. Greenberg, author of Science for Sale: The Perils, Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.Leonard A. Schlesinger, Babson College's president, says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is“an age-old argument.”6. When Google and Facebook were established, the founders were still_______.A. in high schoolB. in the armyC. in primary schoolD. at college7. According to the passage, what is the main purpose of entrepreneurship education _______A. To prepare students for future academic life.B. To prepare students to find opportunities and seize them.C. To prepare students for overseas career.D. To prepare students to develop interpersonal skills.8. The word“prototype” in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean _______.A. modelB. strategyC. methodD. stage9. What does Daniel S. Greenberg think of entrepreneurship education _______A. Entrepreneurship, or at least certain elements of it, can be taught.B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really likeand entrepreneurship isn't all about business.C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.D. Colleges shouldn't put too much emphasis on entrepreneurshipprograms.10. What is the main idea of the passage _______A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.D. Kids in the information age.Part III. Translate English into Chinese.Directions: For this part, you are required to translate English into Chinese.With continuing publicity about the need for healthful diets, and with new research about the harmful effects of eating too much sugar, nationwide demand for sugar will no doubt decline. Therefore, farmers in out state should use the land on which they currently grow sugar cane to grow peanuts, a food that is rich in protein and low in sugar. Farmers in the neighboring country greatly increased their production of peanuts last year, and their total income from that crop were quite high.Part IV. Translate Chinese into English.Directions: For this part, you are required to translate Chinese into English.Passage 1一项研究显示,那些居住中仅有楼梯的公寓大楼的人们,其平均寿命要比那些居住在既有楼梯又有电梯的大楼里的居民高出3年。

Then complete the answers that follow the questions in no more than 3 words.Hi Bill,How are you? Last time we spoke, you told me that you were having some difficulties with your parents. Are things getting any better? I hope so. Anyway, I thought I’d write and share some advice, as I had a similar issue with my overprotective parents a few years ago.I think it’s important to remember that your parents are doing what they do because they love you. Instead of getting annoyed with them, try having an honest conversation with them. You could explain your feelings calmly, and tell them you would like more independence.Another approach you can take is to gradually demonstrate your responsibility and maturity. Show your parents that you can handle small tasks and responsibilities on your own. By doing this you can earn their trust over time.It could also be helpful to involve an adult in the conversation between you and your parents—someone you trust, like a relative or a family friend. This could help your parents to see things from a different perspective.I think that patience is important in dealing with overprotective parents. It may take time for them to adjust to you growing older and more independent. In the meantime, try to understand their concerns.I hope that advice is helpful. Remember, I’m always here for you if you need me. Love,Amy21. What is Bill’s problem?Bill is having some difficulties _________________________________.22.
