Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the bodyrecovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other.Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly (Although your eyelids are closed). This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement.If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep!1. A good title for this is ____.A. SleepC. DreamsB. Good HealthD. Work and Rest2. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means ____.A. sickC. asleepB. stand upD. a little sleepy3. This suggests that not getting enough sleep might make you_____.A. dream more often C. nervousB. have poor health D. breathe quickly4. During REM, ____.A. your eyes move quickly C. you are restlessB. you dreamD. both A and B5.

happy you were when you saw my first picture on the screen.The happiness stopped when the doctortold you I was a girl.Your whole body became cold and Papa didn't say a word，either.That night my little world broke down when I heard Papa said that a second girl has no right to be born.I have the right to be born，Mummy.Is being a girl that terrible？What crimes have I done？You cried and shouted“NO”!However，you then gave in with tears.I could feel your pain,Mummy.But,no，Mummy！Don’t kill me！Mummy,I want to be born.I want to live with you.I want you to hug and love me.I want to be your pride.I want to play with my elder sister.Mummy,I want to celebrate my birthday.…Maybe I ask too much.Your cry lasted the whole night and it became louder with my kicking.Once my little movements had given you so much delight but now it causes more pain than happiness.Grandma had told you it’s a man’s world,and she once gave you a detailed description of how girls were ill treated in the real world.Mummy,it is this that you are so scared of？You doubted whether you were able to protect another girl against being hurt?I guess there is only one person who is really eager about my birth.That is my elder sister.She even spent hours thinking of a name for me.Anupriya，isn’t that a beautiful name for a girl.I promise I will be as good as a boy,even better，if you give me a chance，if you let me live.In this waiting room,we have been sitting for quite a long time.My only crime is mysex，and my punishment will be death.1.When you are reading the letter,you can feel a（n）_______atmosphere.

against sex discrimination.C.To state that women and men should have the equal right.D.To compose an imaginary story that can not be true.阅读理解（二）The people in the room were tense.Five young engineers were sitting with their boss. They were trying to settle something about where to set up an important new plant.Suddenly one of the young engineers said what he thought was a good way of dealing with the problem.What he had to say met with an uncomfortable silence.The boss then laughingly pointed out that the same suggestion had been made and rejected some minutes before.The incident seemed funny at the time.But several months later it didn’t.After the work had been successfully finished,most of the engineers who had worked on it were promoted.But the young man who had made a fool of himself at the meeting was passed over.What had happened?The young engineer was sure that he had never heard the suggestion made and rejected.He was right.He was a victim of a bad listening habit that he didn’t know he had.Bad listening habits can hurt you a lot in your daily living. Much of your success,both in your work and social life,is related to how you listen.A number of major industries and more than twenty leading colleges have become very concerned about our bad listening habits.They have set up listening clinics and courses to find out what is wrong----and what to do about it.1.What does the word“rejected”in the second paragraph mean?A.Passed throughB.Passed awayC.RefusedD.Delayed2.Which of the following is NOT the young man’s attitude（态度）towards the trouble that happened to him?A、He wanted to improved his listening habit.B、He didn’t realize that he had a bad listening habit.C、He thought what he had done was right.D、He thought nobody had made the same suggestion as he did.3.The purpose of the text is to show that________.A、the young man didn’t accept suggestions made by othersB、much of your success is related to how well you listenC、much of your success is related to how well you listen to your bossD、the young man’s insistence on his own ideas led to his failure4.From the text we can get the conclusion（结论）that_______.A、the young man’s boss was not a good leaderB、the boss didn’t like the young man from the very beginningC、it was all because of the young man’s bad listening habit that he failed to beD、promoted the young man made the same suggestion as had already been accepted四、书面表达：(满分15分)请你为一个中学参观团起草一份通知，用一段话说明以下要点：参观日期：7月22日，星期六时间：早上8点钟出发。

Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main th ing was learning how to face an audience ... not to be inhibited( 拘谨 )... not to be nervousExactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’ t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’ re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to read out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your long-standing nervous inhibitions.The same is true of writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ ll read what youwrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and read out to the person at the other end of the line.Of course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’ re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary -- or at least it’ s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper(1). The topic of the passage is ________A. how to be a good writerB. how to be a good speakerC. how to express yourself with your wordsD. how to get rid of nervousness in public speaking(2). The public speech course mainly teaches students ______A. how to make an attractive speech using perfect grammar and vocabularyB. how to express themselves exactly and vividlyC. how to collect data needed and organize itD. how to get over their nervousness when making a speech(3). The similarity between making a public speech and writing isthat _______A. you have to do a lot of preparation work beforehandB. you should get over your nervous inhibitionsC. you should know grammar and vocabulary well to accomplish themD. both of them have audience(4). In the opinion of the author, public speaking is much easier than writing because _______A. public speaking requires less effort than writingB. it’ s unnecessary for you to write a lot for speech and you can say anything as you likeC. you face the audience directly in public speaking; while writingis otherwiseD. in public speaking, the audience have to listen to you whether they like it or not(5). The author of this passage probably is a ________A. bossB. politicianC. writerD. professor2."The pen is more powerful than the sword (剑)." There have been many writers who used their pens to fight things that were wrong. Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe was one of them.She was born in the USA in 1811. One of her books not only made her famous but has been described as one that excited the world, and was helpful in causing a civil war and freezing the slaves. The civil warwas the American Civil War of 1861, in which the Northern States fought the Southern States and finally won.This book was named "Uncle Tom''''s Cabin". There was time when every English-speaking man, woman, and child has read this novel that did so much to stop slavery. Not many people read it today, but it isstill very interesting. The book has shown us how a warm-hearted writer can arouse (唤起) people''''s sympathies (同情). The writer herself had neither been to the Southern States nor been a slave. The Southern Americans were very angry at the novel, which they said did not at all represent (代表) true state of affairs, but the Northern Americans were wildly excited over it and were so inspired (激励) by it that they-were ready to go to war to set the slaves free.(1). According to the passage ( ).A. every English-speaking person had read "Uncle Tom''s Cabin"B. "Uncle Tom''s Cabin" was not very interestingC. those who don''t speak English can not have read "Uncle Tom''s Cabin"D. the book "Uncle Tom''s Cabin" did a great deal in the American Civil War(2). How old was Mrs. Stowe when her world famous book was published? ( )A. About 60 years old.B.Over 50 years old.C.In her forties.D. Around 30 years old.(3). What do you learn about Mrs. Stowe from the passage? ( )A. AShe had been living in the north of America before the American Civil War.B. She herself encouraged the northern Americans to go to war and set the slaves free.C. She was better as writing as using a sword.D. She had once been a slave.(4). Why could Mrs. Stowe''s book cause a civil war in America? ( )A. She wrote so well that Americans loved her very much.B. She disclosed (揭露) the terrible wrongs that had been done to the slaves in the Southern States.C. The Southern Americans hated the book while the Northern Americans like it.D. The book had been read by many Americans.(5). What can we learn from the passage? ( )A. We needn''t use weapons (武器) to fight things that are wrong.B. writer is more helpful in a war than a soldier.C. We must understand the importance of literature and art.D. No war can be won without such a book as "Uncle Tom''s Cabin".3. The ordinary raindrop is a mighty earth mover with sufficient strength to cut rock. When rainwater collects on the surface of the ground, some of it evaporates and some of it sinks into the earth.The remainder begins to flow downhill, commencing its lengthy journey form brook to stream to lake, or to a river that will carry it to the sea.As water flows along the ground, it picks up sand, pebbles, even boulders. It uses them to gnaw at the sides and bottom of its channel, gradually loosening more earth.By this process enormous amounts of mud and rock are moved from the land to the sea. Each year the Mississippi River carries 730 million tons of solid matter into the Gulf of Mexico.This constant hauling of land into the sea is lowering the United States’ average height above sea level at a rate of about one foot every 9000 years. If erosion continues at the same rate, the United States will be worn completely down to sea level in about 23 million years.(1). Flowing water gradually makes its channel ______.A. narrowerB. deeperC. widerD. both B and C(2). The average height of the United States above sea level ___.A. is being raised each yearB. remains constantC. will reach sea level in 9000 yearsD. is being lowered little by little(3).

Most people do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties represent ( 代表 ) a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation.What makes life difficult is the process of facing and solving problems and it is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness or, loneliness or regret or anger of fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy.Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, "Those things that hurt, instruct." It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems.(1). From the passage, it can be inferred that ( ).A. everybody has problemsB. we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of lifeC. life is difficult because our problems bring us painD. people like to complain about their problems(2). The writer probably used one short sentence in the first paragraph to ( ).A. save spaceB. persuade readersC. make readers laughD. get readers'' attention(3). The main idea of paragraph three is that ( ).A. most people feel life is easyB. the writer feels life is easyC. the writer likes to complain about his problemsD. Problem solving is part of life(4). According to the passage, we give school children difficult problems to solve in order to ( ).A. encourage them to learnB. teach them to fear the pain of solving the problemC. help them learn to deal with painD. teach them how to respect from problems(5). The saying from Benjamin Franklin "Those things that hurt, instruct" suggest that ( ).A. we do not learn from experienceB. we do not learn when we are painC. pain teaches us important lessonsD. pain cannot be avoid答案：一、单项选择题（60分，共 60 题，每小题 1 分）1.

2020年全国英语等级三级试题及答案(卷三)
2020年全国英语等级三级试题及答案（卷三）I heard many parents complaining that their teenage children are rebelling. I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the present rebellion. It seems that teenagers are taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents. Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching (紧握) at one another's hands for reassurance.They claim they want to dress as they please. But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up huddled (聚在一起) round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thusandsuch a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon (蚕茧) into a larger_cocoon.It has become harder and harder for a teenager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry has firmly carved out a teenage market. These days every teenager can learn from the advertisements what a teenager should have and be. And many of today's parents have come to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teenager who wants to find his or her own path.But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following.You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may want to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you don't care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come —with the people who respect you for who you are. That is the only kind of popularity that really counts.1.In this passage, the author wants to tell ________.A.teenagers to try to pursue their real selvesB.readers to try to be popular with people aroundC.parents to try to control and guide their childrenD.people to try to understand and respect each other2.The author disapproves of rebelling teenagers ________.A.growing away from their parentsB.following the popularity trendC.walking a new way on their ownD.turning to their friends for help3.The phrase “larger cocoon”at the end of the second paragraph refers to ________.A.the distractive and variable societyB.the dazzling music worldC.the parental care and loveD.the popularity wave in the society4.What does the author think of advertisements?A.Convincing.B.Instructive.C.Influential.D.Authoritative.5.According to the author, what might happen when a teenager stands up against the popularity wave and follows his/her own path?A.He/She falls behind the time.B.He/She loses good friends.C.He/She faces all kinds of criticism.D.He/She gains valuable popularity.答案及解析1.A主旨大意题。

Green buildings can also refer to environmentally friendly houses, factories,and offices.Green buildingmeans“reducing the impact of the building on the land”, Taryn Holowka of the US Green Building Council in Washington,D.C.,said.2.______()According to Holowka,buildings account for65percent of total US electricity use.But green buildings can reduce energy and water use.Also, the buildings are often located near public transportation such as buses and subway,so that people can drive their cars less.That could be good for the environment,because cars use lots of gas and give off pollution. Green buildings are often built on developed land,so that the buildings don’t destroy forests.3.______()Marty Dettling is project manager for a building that put these ideas into action.The Solaire has been called the country’s first green high-rise building.According to Dettling,“We’ve reduced our energy use by one-third and our water by50percent.”4.______()The Solaire cuts energy in past by using solar power.“On the face ofthe building we have solar panels which change the sun’s energy into electricity,”Dettling explained.The Solaire also has lights that automatically turn off when people leave the room.In addition,the building has lots of windows,allowing people to use the sun for light during the day.The Solaire cuts water by reusing it.5._____()Not everyone is eager to move into a green building,however.Some people think that things like solar panels cost more money than more traditional energy sources.Anyhow,Holowka said,“It’s going to be big.”五、书面表达：(满分30分)假如你是小明,即将去国外学习,请你写封信给你的朋友Tom告诉他你已经被伦敦大学录取,内容重点如下:1.告诉这个消息2.请他给你一些建议并给予指导注意:字数应为200字符左右参考答案：一、选择题：1-5:ABBDA6-10:AABCB11-15:ACABC16-20:ACAAC二、单词拼写1、答案:wine2、答案:succeed3、答案:quality4、答案:extra5、答案:progress三、翻译1.She must have cried,which we can see from her eyes.2.In spite of his old age,he never gives up studying English.3.The first problem to be discussed at the meeting tomorrow is what to do next.4.Not knowing how to translate the sentence,she turned to the teacher for help.5.Not until yesterday were they told that all the rooms in the hotel had been fully booked四、阅读理解：阅读理解ABADC阅读理解B参考答案1-5：DCAEF。
