2018年4月高等教育自学考试《英语（一）》试题课程代码：00012一、阅读判断Finding Paradise (天堂) and Success in RetirementIvy Singh and her husband had their retirement all planned out. They wanted to have a place with enough land to grow plants. The couple successfully found a proper place and turned it into a farm called Bollywood Veggies. "We came and had a look and we found paradise. We started Bollywood Veggies there and then," she says.The basic idea of starting the farm was to keep themselves busy in retirement. Mrs. Singh says it was never begun as a business. "We started this as a lifestyle project for retirement." The farm's produce includes beans, cabbage and other crops. Soon, more people found out about the farm. Visitors often asked whether the farm offered any food or drinks. So the couple started a restaurant and a food museum on the farm.As the farm changed from a retirement to a commercial project, Mrs. Singh sought new business opportunities. A key area was growing bananas. Given the popularity of bananas and their use in a range of food products, she saw great potential. The farm uses its crop to make products such as banana chips and bread.Mrs. Singh, driven by the success of the project, now wants to open a retirement home on the farm. She says the farm is a nice place for people who have retired.Mrs. Singh says she does not care much about the profit, because she is getting to live her dream while making a difference to society.1.

"We wanted to make the best gelato in the world and we didn't know how to make any gelato!" Fed recalls. That did not stop them though and the business has become more and more successful.The word gelato means "frozen" originally. Since ancient Rome, people have been enjoying cold desserts. Many think gelato is just an Italian name for ice cream. But actually it is a different product. According to Fed and Guido, the difference between ice cream and gelato is the amount of fat in the product. In ice cream you have an average of 17-18% of fat, but with Italian gelato you have 10%.It was Guido who first came up with the idea. He thought that if they got the best materials, they could make top quality gelato. Fed then put a business plan together and the two decided to go for it. The only rule they had when they started out was to stick to their guiding principle to try to create the world's best gelato. Their efforts paid off. Sales of their gelato have doubled in Italy every year since 2008. It outpaced (超过) the growth of every other type of iced dessert by some way. The company grows from two employees in 2003 to nearly 700 employees today.According to a market analysis, Italians' love for gelato will last for the next few years. These two will be happy to learn the news.11. It can be learned from the first paragraph that Fed and GuidoA. used to be wine makersB. knew how to make gelatoC. had no experience in food industryD. planned to create a new dessert12. Paragraph 2 tells us thatA. Fed and Guido invented gelatoB. Italians prefer gelato to ice creamC. gelato is the world's best dessertD. gelato has less fat than ice cream13. The guiding principle Fed and Guido followed isA. using secret materialsB. sticking to their business planC. making top quality gelatoD. hiring the best employees14. Since 2008, the sales of Fed and Guido's gelato haveA. remained the sameB. reached record highC. grown as fast as other dessertsD. increased steadily15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?A. The World's Best GelatoB. Italians' Love for GelatoC. The History of GelatoD. Gelato Shops in Italy三、概括段落大意和补全句子Newspapers in the Classroom①Creating a classroom newspaper will be a great fun. First of all, decide who is going to work on what section of the newspaper. For example, one group could handle the Sports section, and another could take care of the Arts. All students should have some say as to which news stories will be included.②Next, before you begin any work, it's a good idea to have a look at a few different examples. Collect some from home, or find them at your local or school library. As you are reading through your newspapers, take note of what parts of the newspaper impress you the most. If the newspapers you have are old and no longer being used by anyone, cut some of your favorite sections and pictures out. They can be used later on.③Keep track of your ideas by separating them into sections, much the same as a real paper is in sections. Do you want a sports section? An arts page? A science section? These are the things you need to decide.④One really wonderful way to decide what kind of feeling your newspaper will have is to carry out a survey, either in the classroom or the entire school. Questions you could ask include: What do you like reading about? Do you prefer pictures or stories? And what do you like best in the newspapers you read?⑤When you are set with your ideas, you will have to think about the next step which is actually putting the newspaper together. Decisions to be made include: How many pages will your newspaper have? Who will write the articles, draw the pictures and/or take the photos? How many articles will the newspaper have?Task 116. Paragraph ①:17. Paragraph ②:18. Paragraph ③:19. Paragraph ④:20. Paragraph ⑤:Task 221. All students should voice their opinions on22. You can find your newspaper examples at23. When reading the newspaper, pay attention to the parts24. To decide the feeling of the newspaper, a survey can be done inBoxing for Fitness (健身)When it comes to boxing, most people think of two strong athletes in a ring trying to destroy each other with their fists. 26 It is a sport that people can get a great exercise from.Boxing for fitness is fast becoming a popular way to exercise. It is easy to understand why when you consider all the benefits of the sport. You will gain increased speed, skill and strength.27 You will learn the basic attack skills and how to combine them effectively.So you may wonder how I got started in boxing. I was already at the gym quite often, doing weight training. 28 But I was still soft around the midsection (上腹部). After a conversation with my boss at lunch one day he suggested I come to a boxing class with him. He is a very fit man in his 40s. 29 And he told me all I needed to bring was a bottle of water and a towel.If I have learnt anything from the experience, it is not to be afraid to try something new. No matter what your skill or fitness level is, boxing is good for you. The reason is that this exercise五、填词补文Road BuildingPeople of early civilizations built roads of a sort.

Life on the FarmLife on a farm is always changing. New technologies and a rising interest in healthier and organic eating have had a huge impact on how farms do business. At the same time, a growing population has put more demands on farmers. They need to find ways to increase their production levels. The small family farms that used to produce most of the products have been largely replaced by factory farms. Small family farms that are still operating are struggling to keep up.Technology has made most aspects of farm life easier than it has ever been before. Bigger and more efficient equipment makes work such as plowing up fields and sowing the seeds easier. Such tasks used to take two or three times as long. These advances have allowed farmers to work faster and more efficiently than ever before.In addition to newer technology, factory farms produce more products for less money than traditional farming would require.Modem farm life, despite the introduction of new technologies, has not changed much from what it has always been. Farmers still wake up early, and spend their days doing hard work. There are still animals to feed, cows to be milked, and fields to be plowed. Farm life still requires a lot of hard work and sacrifice.The main change in modem farm life is in the way farms are run. It is common for even small farms to have several hired workers and even an animal manager. Family-run farms are becoming rarer. Factory farms, with other larger farm corporations, are becoming the norm. Although there are still many traditional family farms, they are quickly dying as modem practices change farm life forever.1. Factory farms now produce most of the products.A. TrueB. FalseC.
