外国语学院大学外语教学部2009年8月2009级《大学英语》分级考试试卷Part I. Reading Comprehension (40%)Directions:Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the questions or incomplete statements following the passage. You must read the four choicesmarked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Then mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.(2’×20)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.It has been a widespread belief that the American family is dying. But a new study reveals that the American family is stronger than ever. This study affords surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life.The American family is changing, not dying. It is becoming smaller, men and women are becoming more equal, and the divorce rate is higher. But despite the high divorce rate, marriage has never been more popular. The majority of divorced people remarry, but only 2% marry more than twice. Most marriages last a long time, and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages. Depending on the specific situation, there’s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up.There is no evidence that children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home. So far the amount of educational or development time hasn’t varied very much, whether or not the mother works outside the home. In fact, working mothers try to make up for it by setting aside time only for their children.The study shows that television is by far the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century. The most important activity for children up to age 14 is watching television.School is the second most time-consuming activity for children. They spend an average of about 19 hours a week in school. A larger proportion of children go to school earlier than ever before, and they stay in school longer. Another big change is that the proportion of very young children in daycare centers (日托站) has almost doubled in recent years. Compared with these two dramatic changes in child activity, the changes caused by mothers working outside the home appear very small.1 The main idea of this article is that _______.A. the American family is dyingB. young people today don’t want to get marriedC. the American family is changing, but it is stronger than everD. education has resulted in dramatic changes in the American family2 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Marriage is more popular than before.B. Many divorced people remarry.C. The majority of marriages last long.D. Working mothers devote less time to their children.3 The author of this article believes that ________.A. the American family is here to stayB. children should not watch so much televisionC. mothers should not work when their children are smallD. teenage marriages should be encouraged4 What is the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century?A. The daycare center.B. Television.C. The school.D. Development time.5 According to the writer, which two major factors have led to the belief that the Americanfamily is dying?A. The divorce rate is high and working mothers neglect their children.B. The divorce rate is high and children care more about television than anything else.C. Divorces are increasing and many teenage marriages break up.D. Children stay in school longer and mothers have little time to take care of them. Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives you wha t --- and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries toda y-so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They are given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, this giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.6 The first paragraph is written to tell readers that ________.A. the gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB. the gifts you receive are helpful for you to know the personality of those who give themC. gifts can show friendship and loveD. there is a certain relationship between the kinds of gifts and the people who give them7 A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter ________.A. clothesB. a homemade giftC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD. a gift that matches the character of the giver8 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. What you wear can tell something about your personality.B. Homemade gifts are not welcomed in some countries.C. People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do.D. Reading books given to you as gifts can be a way of sharing a feeling with the giver.9 If you give a large, heavy book as a gift, it may show that _________.A. you are knowledgeableB. the receiver is interested in readingC. you dislike readingD. you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contents10 People who want to show their love towards others often give _______.A. homemade giftsB. delicious foodC. expensive clothesD. interesting booksPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.My love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my grandparent’s farm in Suffolk. I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone: she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do zoology at university.I did n’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn’t know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exacta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea starfish. I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologically correct. There ar e people who will alter things deliberately: you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact that there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless, wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime, as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.11 The author decided to go to university and study zoology because _______________.A. she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB. she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC. she was keen on the natural worldD. she wanted to stop moving around all the time12 How is the author different from some of the other wildlife photographers she meets?A. She tries to make her photographs as attractive as possible.B. She takes photographs which record accurate natural conditions.C. She likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D. She knows the best places to find wildlife.13 The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wild animals because ______________.A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars14 According to the author, wildlife photography is important because it can make people realizethat ___________________.A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals15 Which of the following describes the author?A. Proud.B. Sensitive.C. Aggressive.D. Disappointed.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking”onlin e-many ofthem are talking at the same time.It is fast: trying talking to six people at once. It is convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(= be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (= pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (= on the floor), or LOL (= laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (= rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (= got to go) or TTYL (= talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.16 When people are online, they talk by_____.A. using body language.B. drawing some strange picturesC. making phone callsD. making use of an especially short form of English17 Internet makes many people in the world ______.A. talk at the same timeB. discover their friends and relativesC. pick out good things to buyD. find out about some problems in society18 The underlined sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanation”(L.1, para. 4)means that _____.A. people should use words properlyB. people should know what time it is when they are talkingC. people online have to express themselves in a simple wayD. people should communicate in a funny way19 If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to your A/S/L, it means ______.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is highB. you are talking to a boy 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes20 Which of the following is a way to save online time?A. People seldom use capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Many people draw pictures.C. People only use the mouse instead of the keyboard.D. People never use the “shift” key.Part II.

Then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Faces, like fingerprints, are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to 31 people? Even a skilled writer probably could not 32 all the distinctions that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child –oreven an animal, 33 a pigeon – can learn to recognize faces. We all 34 this ability for granted.We also tell people apart 35 how they behave. When we talk about someone’s per sonality, we mean the manners36 he or she acts, speaks, thinks, and feels that 37 that individual different from others.38 the human face, human personality is very complex. Butdescribing someone’s personality 39 words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a “nice face” lo oked like, you 40 have a difficult time doing so.41 if you were asked to describe a “nice person,” you might begin to think about someone who was kind, 42 , friendly, warm, and so forth.There are many words to describe how a person thinks, feels, and acts. Gordon Allport, 43 U. S. psychologist, found nearly 18,000 English words characterizing differences in people’s behavior.

Reading Comprehension (45 points)Section A (30 points, 2 for each)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each of the three passages is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:Television has now come to nearly every family. It has played a very important part in people's life. School children in the US watch TV about 25 hours a week.Some people feel that television is good for children because it helps them learn about their country and the world. With the help of programs of education, children do better in school. Other people feel that there are too many programs about love and crime on TV, and that even programs of education don't help children a lot. Children simply watch too much television, so they don't do a lot of other important things for their education. Children of three to six learn to speak their language and talk with people. When they are watching TV, they are only listening to the language, and they aren't talking with anyone. When school children watch TV, they read less. Because of this, they don't learn to read or write quickly at school.All children learn by doing, and they need time to play in order to learn about the world. When they watch TV, they play less. They also have less time to communicate with their parents and friends, and they have less time for sports.Recently, fifteen families in Denver decided to stop watching TV for a month or more. At first it was difficult, but there were soon a lot of good changes. The children read, played, and exercised more, and the family became full of joy. But at the endof the month all the families began to watch TV as much as before. Not one family was able to give up television completely.46. Some people think that television is good for children because _______.A. some programs help them love their parentsB. the news programs are important to themC. it makes them play less than beforeD. they can learn something good from it47. Some people think that television is bad for children because _______.A. there are too many TV programs not good for childrenB. its language is difficult to understandC. it is helpful to their thinking and doingD. their eyes work much every day48. Because they watch too much TV, school children _______.A. write more quickly than beforeB. don't learn to read or write quickly at schoolC. play a lotD. read and write much more49. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. People can not live without television.B. Only through television can children learn about the world .C. When children are watching television, they talk with each other.D. When children watch TV, they read and play less.50. What is the writer’s attitude towards television?A. objectiveB. suspiciousC. compromisingD. appreciative Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:This book on open education has two parts. The first part has to do with how the teacher feels about students. The second part has to do with what the teacher does in the classroom.In traditional education, the teacher may feel that students are not very grown up. Usually, teachers are older than students, and teachers feel that students are young and do not know much about the world. The teacher feels that he must tell the students what to do most of the time, and that he must make the students study specific things. In open education, the teacher's feelings are very different. The teacher feels that the students are individuals first, and students second. He expects his students to be responsible for the things they do, just as adults are. A student's ideas and feelings are just as important as the teacher's. The teacher allows his students to decide what they want to do, and does not make them study specific subjects or things. The teacher letsthem decide what to study and how much to study. It's very important for the teacher to show how he feels about the students.The second part of the idea of open education has to do with what the teacher does in the classroom. In the traditional classroom, the students are told what to do. There is a list of things that the students must do to finish the class. There are rules made by the teacher that the students must follow, even if the students see no reason for the rules. In open education, the teacher allows the students to choose what to do. They may study, or talk, or do nothing at all if they want. There are no specific things for the students to do. There are no traditionalrules made by the teacher. The only rules in an open classroom are rules for everyone' s safety. The students are allowed to discover subjects in the open classroom, instead of being made to study them. Open education is a really complex idea.51. What is this passage mainly about?A. The system of traditional education.B. The characteristics of open education.C. A comparison of two kinds of education.D. An emphasis on open education.52. According to the passage students in open education _______.A. have more freedomB. are restricted by regulationsC. study harderD. have better results in what they study53. What the author discusses in this passage concerns _______.A. the teaching procedureB. the students' activitiesC. what the teacher does in the classroomD. the attitude the teacher holds towards students and his classroom activities54. When a school has "A Child Is Most Important" as its slogan(口号), this schoolmost probably adopts the idea of _______.A. traditional educationB. open educationC. adult educationD. open university55. The author regards open education as _______.A. more reliableB. complexC. modernD. unusualQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:When 23-year-old Eric graduated from college last year, he didn’t have a job. Not wanting to give up his apartment and move back with his parents, he did what many young Americans are doing: he signed up with a temp (临时的) agency, which places workers on short-term jobs. Temporary workers such as Eric comprise 20 percent of the US workforce. In 1985, 417,000 workers were classified as temporary help. In 2005, there was more than 2.5 million, according to Labor Department data.Using temporary workers allows companies to increase or decrease the number of staff as their workloads change. It also allows companies to avoid the costs involved in hiring and firing long-term employees.Many temp agency owners and career specialists say temping is a good way for recent graduates to get experience. “Short-term jobs let graduates try out different companies to find the best fit,” said Pegi Wheatley, owner of a San Francisco temp agency.But things don’t always work out that way. “When I started temping, I had this idea that a temporary job could turn full-time. It worked for a friend of mine, but that didn’t happen for me,” said Eric, who quickly became bored with his office work. Eric stayed with the temp agency because he could earn US $ 10 an hour doing office work. Other short-term jobs, such as working as a store clerk or in a café, pay about US $ 7.But there are drawbacks for the higher pay. Because in theUS, health insurance is provided through employer, most temps are not entitled to workplace health benefits. Eric ran the risk that an accident or illness would land him in the hospital with no way to pay the bill. Other drawbacks, though less serious, still mean that temping for most graduates is exactly what its name implies ----a temporary choice. Instability, gaps between contracts, lack of vacation time and isolation from other employees are drawbacks, too.56. Eric took a short-term job mainly because _______.A. he didn’t want to give up his apa rtmentB. he liked to try out different companiesC. he wanted to get more experienceD. a short-term job is easier to do57. According to the passage, in the year of 2005, more than _______ workerswere classified as temporary help.A. 2.5 millionB. 12.5 millionC. 4.17 millionD. 25 million58. Which is NOT mentioned as an advantage of temping?A. It gives recent graduates experience.B. It enables employers to adjust their workforce.C. A temporary job will turn full-time.D. Employers can reduce their costs.59. Eric stayed with the temp agency for some time because _______.A. he liked his office workB. he was satisfied with the payC. his employer provided health insuranceD. he hated gaps between contracts60. What does the underlined word “drawbacks” in Paragraph 5 mean?A. BenefitsB. CompromisesC. RisksD. DisadvantagesSection B Short Answer Questions (15 points, 3 for each)Directions: Answer each of the questions in less than 10 words.Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:Shopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman.A man goes shopping because he needs something. He knows what he wants, and his purpose is to find it and buy it; the price is a second consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask for what they want. If the shop has it, the salesman quickly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. And if all goes well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minutes, with no chat and to everyone’s satisfaction.Now how does a woman go out buying clothes? Her shopping is not always based on needs. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having a look a round.” She will try on any number of things. The most im portant in her mind is the idea of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always in the lookout for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one shelf toanother, to and fro, often slowing down her steps, before selecting the dresses she wants to try on. It is a tiring process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.61. Why does a man go shopping?62. What is a man’s second consideration when he buys something?63. How quickly can the deal be completed for a man?64. What is the most important idea for a woman when she buys something?65. What do most dress shops provide for the waiting husbands?IV. Translation (20 points, 4 for each)Directions: In this part, there are five items which you are required to translate into Chinese.

外国语学院大学外语教学部2009年8月2009级《大学英语》分级考试试卷Part I. Reading Comprehension (40%)Directions:Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the questions or incomplete statements following the passage. You must read the four choicesmarked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Then mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.(2’×20)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.It has been a widespread belief that the American family is dying. But a new study reveals that the American family is stronger than ever. This study affords surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life.The American family is changing, not dying. It is becoming smaller, men and women are becoming more equal, and the divorce rate is higher. But despite the high divorce rate, marriage has never been more popular. The majority of divorced people remarry, but only 2% marry more than twice. Most marriages last a long time, and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages. Depending on the specific situation, there’s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up.There is no evidence that children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home. So far the amount of educational or development time hasn’t varied very much, whether or not the mother works outside the home. In fact, working mothers try to make up for it by setting aside time only for their children.The study shows that television is by far the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century. The most important activity for children up to age 14 is watching television.School is the second most time-consuming activity for children. They spend an average of about 19 hours a week in school. A larger proportion of children go to school earlier than ever before, and they stay in school longer. Another big change is that the proportion of very young children in daycare centers (日托站) has almost doubled in recent years. Compared with these two dramatic changes in child activity, the changes caused by mothers working outside the home appear very small.1 The main idea of this article is that _______.A. the American family is dyingB. young people today don’t want to get marriedC. the American family is changing, but it is stronger than everD. education has resulted in dramatic changes in the American family2 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Marriage is more popular than before.B. Many divorced people remarry.C. The majority of marriages last long.D. Working mothers devote less time to their children.3 The author of this article believes that ________.A. the American family is here to stayB. children should not watch so much televisionC. mothers should not work when their children are smallD. teenage marriages should be encouraged4 What is the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century?A. The daycare center.B. Television.C. The school.D. Development time.5 According to the writer, which two major factors have led to the belief that the Americanfamily is dying?A. The divorce rate is high and working mothers neglect their children.B. The divorce rate is high and children care more about television than anything else.C. Divorces are increasing and many teenage marriages break up.D. Children stay in school longer and mothers have little time to take care of them. Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives you wha t --- and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries toda y-so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They are given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, this giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharing a feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.6 The first paragraph is written to tell readers that ________.A. the gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB. the gifts you receive are helpful for you to know the personality of those who give themC. gifts can show friendship and loveD. there is a certain relationship between the kinds of gifts and the people who give them7 A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter ________.A. clothesB. a homemade giftC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD. a gift that matches the character of the giver8 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. What you wear can tell something about your personality.B. Homemade gifts are not welcomed in some countries.C. People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do.D. Reading books given to you as gifts can be a way of sharing a feeling with the giver.9 If you give a large, heavy book as a gift, it may show that _________.A. you are knowledgeableB. the receiver is interested in readingC. you dislike readingD. you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contents10 People who want to show their love towards others often give _______.A. homemade giftsB. delicious foodC. expensive clothesD. interesting booksPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.My love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my grandparent’s f arm in Suffolk. I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more than anyone: she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do zoology at university.I didn’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn’t know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exacta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea starfish. I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologically correct. There are people who will alter things deliberately: you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignorance in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact that there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless, wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime, as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.11 The author decided to go to university and study zoology because _______________.A. she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB. she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC. she was keen on the natural worldD. she wanted to stop moving around all the time12 How is the author different from some of the other wildlife photographers she meets?A. She tries to make her photographs as attractive as possible.B. She takes photographs which record accurate natural conditions.C. She likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D. She knows the best places to find wildlife.13 The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wild animals because ______________.A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars14 According to the author, wildlife photography is important because it can make people realizethat ___________________.A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals15 Which of the following describes the author?A. Proud.B. Sensitive.C. Aggressive.D. Disappointed.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking”onlin e-many of them are talking at the same time.It is fast: trying talking to six people at once. It is convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(= be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (= pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (= on the floor), or LOL (= laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (= rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (= got to go) or TTYL (= talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.16 When people are online, they talk by_____.A. using body language.B. drawing some strange picturesC. making phone calls17 Internet makes many people in the world ______.A. talk at the same timeB. discover their friends and relativesC. pick out good things to buyD. find out about some problems in societyD. making use of an especially short form of English18 The underlined sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanation”(L.1, para. 4)means that _____.A. people should use words properlyB. people should know what time it is when they are talkingC. people online have to express themselves in a simple wayD. people should communicate in a funny way19 If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to your A/S/L, it means ______.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is highB. you are talking to a boy 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes20 Which of the following is a way to save online time?A. People seldom use capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Many people draw pictures.C. People only use the mouse instead of the keyboard.D. People never use the “shift” key.Part II.

For questions8-10, complete the sentences with the information given in the passage.How Do Y ou See Diversity?As a manager, Tiffany is responsible for interviewing applicants for some of the positions with her company .During one interview, she noticed that the candidate never made direct eye contact. She was puzzled and somewhat disappointed because she liked the individual otherwise.He had a perfect resume and gave good responses to her questions, but the fact that he never looked her in the eye said “untrustworthy,” so she decided to offer the job to her second choice.“It wasn‟t until I attended a diversity workshop that I realized the person we passed over was the perfect person,” Tiffany confesses. What she hadn‟t known at the time of the interview was that the candidate‟s “different”behavior was simply a cultural misunderstanding . He was an Asian-American raised in a household where respect for those in authority was shown by averting(避开) your eyes.“I was just thrown off by the lack of ye contact; not realizing it was cultural,”Tiffany says. “I missed out ,but will not miss that opportunity again.”Many of us have had similar encounters with behaviors we perceive as different. As the world becomes smaller and our workplaces more diverse, it is becoming essential to expand our under-standing of others and to reexamine some of our false assumptions .Hire AdvantageAt a time when hiring qualified people is becoming more difficult ,employers who can eliminate invalid biases(偏爱) from the process have a distinct advantage .My company, Mindsets LLC ,helps organizations and individuals see their own blind spots . A real estate recruiter we worked with illustrates the positive difference such training can make .“During my Mindsets coaching session ,I was taught how to recruit a diversified workforce. I recruited people from different cultures and skill sets .The agents were able to utilize their full potential and experiences to build up the company .When the real estate market began to change, it was because we had a diverse agent pool that we were able to stay in the real estate market much longer than others in the same profession.”Blinded by GenderDale is an account executive who attended one of my workshops on supervising a diverse workforce . “Through one of the sessions ,I discovered my personal bias ,”he recalls . “I learned I had not been looking at a person as a whole person , and being open to differences .”In his case , the blindness was not about culture but rather gender .“I had a management position open in my department ;and the two finalists were a man and a woman . Had I not attended this workshop , I would have automatically assumed the man was the best candidate because the position required quite a bit of extensive travel . My reasoning would have been that even though both candidates were great and could have been successful in the position , I assumed the woman would have wanted to be home with her children and not travel .”Dale‟s assumptions are another example of the well-intentioned but incorrect thinking that limits an organization‟s ability to tap into the full potential of a diverse workforce .“I learned from the class that instead of imposing my gender biases into the situation , I needed to present the full range of duties, responsibilities and expectations to all candidates and allow them to make an informed decision .”Dale credits the workshop , “because it helped me make decisions based on fairness .”Y ear of the Know-It-AllDoug is another supervisor who attended one of my workshops .He recalls a major lesson learned from his own employee.“One of my most embarrassing moments was when I had a Chinese-American employee put in a request to take time off to celebrate Chinese New Y ear . In my ignorance , I assumed he had his dates wrong , as the first of January had just passed . When I advised him of this , I gave him a long talking-to about turning in requests early with the proper dates .“He patiently waited , then when I was done , he said he would like Chinese New Y ear did not begin January first , and that Chinese New Y ear ,which is tied to the lunar cycle ,is one of the most celebrated holidays on the Chinese calendar . Needless to say , I felt very embarrassed in assuming he had his dates mixed up . But I learned a great deal about assumptions , and that the timing of holidays varies considerably from culture to culture .“Attending the diversity workshop helped me realize how much I could learn by simply asking questions and creating dialogues with my employees , rather than making assumptions and trying to be a know-it-all ,”Doug admits . “The biggest thing I took away from the workshop is learning how to be more …inclusive‟to differences.”A better Bottom LineAn open mind about diversity not only improves organizations internally , it is profitable as well . These comments from a customer service representative show how an inclusive attitude can improve sales .”Most of my customers speak English as a second language . One of the best things my company has done is to contract with a language service that offers translations over the phone . It wasn‟t until my boss received Mindsets‟training that she was able to understand how important inclusiveness was to customer service . As result , our customer base has increased .”Once we start to see people as individuals . and discard the stereotypes , we can move positively toward inclusiveness for everyone . Diversity is about coming together and taking advantage of our differences and similarities . It is about building better communities and organizations that enhance us as individuals and reinforce our shared humanity .When we begin to question our assumptions and challenge what we think we have learned from our past , from the media, peers , family , friends , etc , we begin to realize that some of our conclusions are flawed(有缺陷的) or contrary to our fundamental values . We need to train our-selves to think differently , shift our mindsets and realize that diversity opens doors for all of us ,creating opportunities in organizations and communities that benefit everyone .1.What bothered Tiffany during an interview with her candidate?A)He just wouldn‟t look her in the eye.B)He was slow in answering her questions.C)His answers to some of her questions were irrelevant.D)His answers to some of her questions were irrelevant .2.

This can be taken as our first rule of learning .Although it is usually true that studying for four hours is better than studying for one , there is still the question of how we should use the four hours . For example , is it better to study for four hours (39) or to study for one hour a day for four days in a (40) ? . The answer , as you may have (41) , is that it is better to spread out the study times . This (42) , through which we can learn more (43) .by dividing our practice time, is known as the distribution of practice effect. Thus,(44).But we‟re not finished yet .

They never write , unless assignments 47 it . They fine the writing process 48 and difficult.How awful to be able to speak in a language but not to write in it- 49 English , with its rich vocabulary . Being able to speak but not write is like living in an 50 mansion(豪宅) and never leaving one small room . When I meet students who think they can‟t write, I know as a teacher my 51 is to show them the rest of the rooms . My task is to build fluency while providing the opportunity inherent in any writing activity to 52 the moral and emotional development of my students . One great way to do this is by having students write in a journal in class every day .Writing ability is like strength training . Writing needs to be done 53 , justlike exercise ; just as muscles grow stronger with exercise , writing skills improve quickly with writing practice. I often see a rise in student confidence and 54 after only a few weeks of journal writing .Expressing oneself in writing is one of the most important skills I teach to strengthen the whole student . When my students practice journal writing ,they are practicing for their future academic , political , and 55 lives . They build skills so that some day they might write a great novel , a piece of sorely needed legislation , or the perfect love letter .

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fourchoices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choiceand mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single linethrough the centre.Passage OneQuestions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.The January fashion show , called FutureFashion , exemplified how far green design has come. Organized by the New Y ork-based nonprofit Earth Pledge , the show inspired many top designers to work with sustainable fabrics for the first time . Several have since made pledges to include organic fabrics in their lines.The designers who undertake green fashion still face many challenges . Scott Hahn , cofounder with Gregory of Rogan and Loomstate , which uses all-organic cotton , says high-quality sustainable materials can still be tough to fine . “Most designers with existing labels are finding there aren‟t comparable fabrics that can justreplace what you‟re doing and shat your customers are used to ,”he says . For example , organic cotton and non-organic cotton are virtually indistinguishable once woven into a dress . But some popular synthetics , like stretch nylon , still have few eco-friendly equivalents.Those who do make the switch are finding they have more support . Last year the influential trade show Designers & Agents stopped charging its participation fee for young green entrepreneurs(企业家) who attend its two springtime shows in Los Angeles and New Y ork and gave special recognition to designers whose collections are at least 25% sustainable . It now counts more than 50 green designers , up from fewer than a dozen two years ago . This week Wal-Mart is set to announce a major initiative aimed at helping cotton farmers go organic: it will buy transitional(过渡型的) cotton at higher prices , thus helping to expand the supply of a key sustainable material . “Mainstream is about to occur ,” says Hahn .Some analysts(分析师) are less sure . Among consumers, only 18%are even aware that ecofashion exists , up from 6% four years ago . Natalie Hormilla , a fashion writer , is an example of the unconverted consumer , When asked if she owned any sustainable clothes , she replied : “Not that I‟m aware of .”Like most consumers , she finds little time to shop , and when she does, she‟s on the hunt for “cute stuff that isn‟t too expensive .”By her own admission , green just isn‟t yet on her mind . But –thanks to the combined efforts of designers, retailers and suppliers –one day it will be .57. What is said about FutureFashion ?A) It inspired many leading designers to start going green .B) It showed that designers using organic fabrics would go far .C) It served as an example of how fashion shows should be organized.D) It convinced the public that fashionable clothes should be made durable.58. According to Scott Hahn , one big challenge to designers who will go organic isthat .A) much more time is needed to finish a dress using sustainable materials .B) they have to create new brands for clothes made of organic materials .C) customers have difficulty telling organic from non-organic materials .D) quality organic replacements for synthetics are not readily available .59. We learn from Paragraph 3 that designers who undertake green fashion .A) can attend various trade shows free .B) are readily recognized by the fashion worldC) can buy organic cotton at favorable prices .D) are gaining more and more support .60. What is Natalie Hormilla‟s attitude toward ecofashion?A)She doesn‟t seem to care about it . C) She is doubtful of its practical value.B)She doesn‟t think it is sustainable D)She is very much opposed to the idea61. What does the author think of green fashion?A) Green products will soon go mainstream .B) It has a very promising future .C) Consumers have the final say .D) It will appeal more to young people .Passage TwoQuestions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage .Scientists have devised a way to determine roughly where a person has lived using a strand(缕) of hair , a technique that could help track the movements of criminal suspects or unidentified murder victims .The method relies on measuring how chemical variations in drinking water show up in people‟s hair.“Y ou‟re what you eat and drink , and that‟s recorded in you hair,”said Thure Cerling, a geologist at the University of Utah .While U.S diet is relatively identical , water supplies vary . The differences result from weather patterns . The chemical composition of rainfall changes slightly as raid clouds move .Most hydrogen and oxygen atoms in water are stable , but traces of both elements are also present as heavier isotopes(同位素) . The heaviest raid falls first .As a result , storms that form over the Pacific deliver heavier water to California than to Utah .Similar patterns exist throughout the U.S. By measuring the proportion of heavier hydrogen and oxygen isotopes along a strand of hair , scientists can construct a geographic timeline . Each inch of hair corresponds to about two months.Cerling‟s team collected tap water samples from 600 cities and constructed a mop of the regional differences . They checked the accuracy of the map by testing 200 hair samples collected from 65 barber shops .They were able to accurately place the hair samples in broad regions roughly corresponding to the movement of raid systems .“It‟s not good for pinpointing (精确定位),”Cerling said . “It‟s good for eliminating many possibilities .”Todd Park ,a local detective , said the method has helped him learn more about an unidentified woman whose skeleton was found near Great Salt Lake .The woman was 5 feet tall. Police recovered 26 bones ,a T-shirt and several strands of hair .When Park heard about the research , he gave the hair samples to the researchers. Chemical testing showed that over the two years before her death , she moved about every two months .She stayed in the Northwest ,although the test could not be more specific than somewhere between eastern Oregon and western Wyoming .“It‟s still a substantial area ,” Park said “But it narrows it way down for me .”62. What is the scientists‟ new discovery?A) One‟s hair growth has to do with the amount of water they drink .B) A person‟s hair may reveal where they have lived .C) Hair analysis accurately identifies criminal suspects.D) The chemical composition of hair varies from person to person .63.What does the author mean by “Y ou‟re what you eat and drink”(Line 1, Para.3)?A) Food and drink affect one‟s personality development.B) Food and drink preferences vary with individuals .C) Food and drink leave traces in one‟s body tissues.D) Food and drink are indispensable to one‟s existence.64. What is said about the rainfall in America‟s West?A) There is much more rainfall in California than in Utah.B) The water it delivers becomes lighter when it moves inland .C) Its chemical composition is less stable than in other areas.D) It gathers more light isotopes as it moves eastward .65. What did Cerling‟s team produce in their research ?A) A map showing the regional differences of tap water .B) A collection of hair samples from various barber shops.C) A method to measure the amount of water in human hair.D) A chart illustrating the movement of the rain system .66. What is the practical value of Cerling‟s research ?A) It helps analyze the quality of water in different regions.B) It helps the police determine where a crime is committed .C) It helps the police narrow down possibilities in detective work.D) It helps identify the drinking habits of the person under investigation .Part V Cloze (15 minutes)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D) on the right side of the paper. Youshould choose the ONE that best fits into the passage.

Looking down, I immediately recognized that something was wrong and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water, and it was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother’s body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk(象鼻)against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.Just at this moment she fell back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot(地点)where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.While I was wondering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mother’s love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could, roaring(吼叫)all the time, but to her calf it was music.56.

A Matter of Life and DeathBComputer programmer David Jones earns $35.000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank ready to let him have a credit card(信用卡). Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18. The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases(推出)two new games for the fast growing computer market each month.But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money. Even though he earns a lot, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage(抵押贷款), or get credit cards. David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-levels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said. David spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother 50 pounds a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.” David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement(退休)is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”60. In what way is David different from people of his age?A. He often goes out with friends.B. He lives with his mother.C. He has a handsome income.D. He graduated with six O-levels.61. What is one of the problems that David is facing now?A. He is too young to get a credit card.B. He has no time to learn driving.C. He has very little spare time.D. He will soon lose his job.62. Why was David able to get the job in the company?A. He had done well in all his exams.B. He had written some computer programs.C. He was good at playing computer games.D. He had learnt to use computers at school.63. Why did David decide to leave school and start working?A. He received lots of job offers.B. He was eager to help his mother.C. He lost interest in school studies.D. He wanted to earn his own living.CWe have met the enemy, and he is ours. We bought him at a pet shop. When monkey-pox, a disease usually found in the African rain forest, suddenly turns up in children in the American Midwest, it’s hard not to wonder of the disease that comes from foreign animals is homing in on human beings. “Most of the infections(感染)we think of as human infections started in other animals,” says Stephen Morse, director of the Center for Public Health Preparedness at Columbia University.It’s not just that we’re going to where the animals are; we’re also bringing them closer to us. Popular foreign pets have brought a whole new disease to this country. A strange illness killed Isaksen’s pets, and she now thinks that keeping foreign pets is a bad idea. “I don’t think it’s fair to have them as pets when we have such a limited knowledge of them,” says Isaksen.“Laws allowing these animals to be brought in from deep forest areas without stricter control needchanging,”says Peter Schantz. Monkey-pox may be the wake-up call. Researchers believe infected animals may infect their owners. We know very little about these new diseases. A new bug(病毒)may be kind at first. But it may develop into something harmful(有害的). Monkey-pox doesn’t look a major infectious disease. But it is not impossible to pass the disease from person to person.64. We learn from Paragraph 1 that the per sold at the shop may.A. come from ColumbiaB. prevent us from being infectedC. enjoy being with childrenD. suffer from monkey-pox65. Why did Isaksen advise people not to have foreign pets?A. They attack human beings.B. We need to study native animals.C. They can’t live out of the rain forest.D. We do not know much about them yet.66. What does she phrase “the wake-up call” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?A. a new diseaseB. a clear warningC. a dangerous animalD. a morning call67. The text suggests that in the future we.A. may have to fight against more new diseasesB. may easily get infected by diseases from dogsC. should not be allowed to have petsD. should stop buying pests from AfricaDIt’s not easy being a teenager(13至19岁青少年)--- nor is it easy being the parent of a teenager. You can make your child feel angry, hurt, or misunderstood by what you say without realizing it yourself. It is important to give your child the space he needs to grow while gently letting him know that you you’ll still be there for him when he needs you.Expect a lot from your child, just not everything. Except for health and safety problems, such as drug use or careless driving; consider everything else open to discussion. If your child is unwilling to discuss something, don’t insist he tell you what’s on his mind. The more you insist, the more likely that he’ll clam up. Instead, let him attempt to solve(解决)things by himself. At the same time, remind him that you’re always there for him should he seek advice or help. Show respect for your teenager’s privacy(隐私). Never read him his mail or listen in on personal conversions.Teach your teenager that the family phone is for the whole family. If your child talks on the family’s telephone for too long, tell him he can talk for15 minutes, but then he must stay off the phone for at least an equal period of time. This not only frees up the line so that other family members can make and receive calls, but teaches your teenager moderation(节制). Or if you are open to the idea, allow your teenager his own phone that he pays for with his own pocket money or a part-time job.68. The main purpose of the text is to tell parents.A. how to get along with a teenagerB. how to respect a teenagerC. how to understand a teenagerD. how to help a teenager grow up69.

Not talk about personal things with him.ESunday, October 5Clear, 69°FMy wife, Eleanor, and I took the train from Paris to Strasbourg, where we were met by our driver and guide.

How much _____ she looked without her glasses!A. wellB. goodC. bestD. better【考点】61:形容词的比较级与最高级.【分析】不戴眼镜,她看起来更好看了!【解答】答案:D.分析句意可知,此处表示两者的比较,即将她戴眼镜与不戴眼镜时的相貌之间进行的比较,因此应使用形容词good的比较级;故选D.【点评】本题考查了形容词的比较级的用法;做类似的题时,首先应根据句意判断出比较的范围(即:表示两者还是三者以及三者以上的比较),来确定是使用比较级还是最高级;其次,还应掌握形容词比较级的变化规则及其意义用法.24. Could I speak to is in charge of International Sales please?A. whoB. whatC. whoeverD. whatever【考点】HA:介词的宾语从句.【分析】请找任何负责国际销售的人接电话好吗?【解答】答案为C.本题考查名词性从句中引导词的运用.根据"speak to sb.(与某人讲话)"判断空格处需要的是"人",排除B和D;whoever表示"任何人",相当于"anyone who",不表示疑问;而who表示疑问;根据语境判断,说话人要找"任何负责的人",不表示疑问,故选C.【点评】名词性从句考查的关键是连接词的选用和语序,因此,我们首先要搞清从句的性质,掌握各连接词的用法,在此基础上判断.此外,关注名词性从句用陈述语序.25.

She brought with her three friends, none of I had ever met before.A. themB. theseC. whoD. whom 【考点】H2:非限制性定语从句.【分析】她带来了三个朋友,我以前一个都没见过.【解答】答案;D.句中none of I had ever met before修饰名词friends,是一个非限制性定语从句;关系词指代先行词friends,且在从句中作介词of的宾语,要用whom来引导.故选D.【点评】定语从句是用来修饰名词的形容词性从句,相当于一个形容词.连接定语从句的引导词分为关系代词和关系副词,关系代词在从句中要作主语或宾语;关系副词在从句中作状语.这也是选择关系词的一个判断方法.29. Edward, you play so well. But I you played the piano.A. didn’t knowB. hadn’t knownC. don’t knowD. haven’t known【考点】E2:一般过去时.【分析】Edward,你弹的太好了.可我都不知道你会弹钢琴.【解答】A.根据句意可知,说话者是"过去"不知道,现在已经知道了,因此句子用一般过去时.【点评】本题考查时态.做时态题时,首先要看句子的时间状语,如果没有时间状语,就从句子暗含的意思来确定句子的时态.30. The children all turned the famous actress as she entered the classroom.A. looked atB. to look atC. to looking atD. look at【考点】BA:不定式.【分析】当那位著名的女演员走进了教室,所有的孩子都转过头去看她.【解答】答案:B.转过头去看turn to在这里是不定式表示目的,转过头(为的是)看一眼那个女演员.故正确答案为B.【点评】本题考查不定式的用法,属于语法知识,这就要求学生平时注意掌握积累语言基础知识.31. The computer was used in teaching. As a result, not only_____, but students became more interested in the lessons.A. saved was teachers’ energyB. was teachers’ energy savedC. teachers’ energy was savedD. was saved teachers’ energy【考点】GB:倒装句.【分析】电脑用于教学,结果不但节省了老师的精力,而且学生也对上课更感兴趣了.【解答】答案:B题干中not only位于句首,句子要部分倒装;倒装时,将助动词,系动词或情态动词提前,句中有系动词was,将其提到主语前即可.故选B.【点评】倒装句是常用的特殊句式之一.分为完全倒装和部分倒装.部分倒装又分为:否定副词位于句首,only加状语提前,句式倒装等.内容较多,学习时要注意掌握.32. Encourage your children to try new things, but try not to them too hard.A. drawB. strikeC. rushD. push【考点】AE:动词的辨析.【分析】鼓励您的孩子尝试新事物,但不要太过逼迫他们.【解答】答案:D.A:draw拉,拖;B:strike敲打,罢工;C:rush冲,突袭;D:push对…施加压力,逼迫根据题干中"encourage your children to try new things"鼓励孩子尝试新事物,下一句"but try not to"表转折,可推断出尽管要鼓励孩子,但不要逼迫他们,故D选项正确.【点评】本题考查动词的词义辨析,根据对动词词义的理解并结合句意,可选出正确选项.33. One of the most important questions they had to consider was of public health.A. whatB. thisC. thatD. which【考点】55:指示代词.【分析】他们必须考虑的问题之一是公众的健康问题.【解答】答案:C.句中was后接的是名词短语,不是从句,不能用连词,可排除A和D;句意指代的是前面的one question,且后接介词of,要用that来指代,相当于the one.故选C.【点评】指示代词是表示指示概念的代词,即用来指示或标识人或事物的代词.指示代词与定冠词和人称代词一样,都具有指定的含义,用来起指示作用或用来代替前面已提到过的名词.指示代词分单数(this/that)和复数(these/those)两种形式,既可作限定词又可做代词.34. Everybody was touched words after they heard her moving story.A. ofB. withoutC. beyondD. in 【考点】8C:介词.【分析】听完这个感人的故事后每个人都感动得说不出话.【解答】答案是C.本题主要考查介词辨析.of关于;属于…的;without没有;beyond 在远处;超出或迟于(某时间);无法(理解或相信)等;in 在…里面;在某一段时间内;用…语言等;在…方面;根据句意和介词搭配判断,用beyond表示"无法…",beyond words表示"无法用语言表达",所以答案选择C.【点评】介词辨析要在掌握各介词的基本用法和固定搭配的基础上结合语境做出符合逻辑、常理的推测.35. Now that we’ve discussed our problem, are people happy with the decisions?A. takingB. takeC. takenD. to take【考点】HP:with的复合结构.【分析】既然我们已经讨论了我们的问题,人们对做出的决定满意吗?【解答】答案:C.考查非谓语动词.句中包含with的复合结构,with+宾语+宾语补足语,这里的decisions是take的宾语,具有动宾关系,因此用过去分词,作后置定语,故答案为C.【点评】考查非谓语形式,应判断其与主语是主动还是被动的关系,再确定答案.第二节完形填空(共20小题;每小题1.5分,满分30分)阅读下面短文,从短文后各题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑.The True Story of Treasure IslandIt was always thought that Treasure Island was the product of Robert Louis Stevenson’s imagination 36 , recent research has found the true story of this exciting work.Stevenson, a Scotsman, had lived37 for many years.

Looking down, I immediately recognized that something was wrong and ran down to the edge of the near bank. There I saw Ma Shwe with her three-month-old calf struggling in the fast-rising water, and it was a life-and-death struggle. Her calf was floating and screaming with fear. Ma Shwe was as near to the far bank as she could get, holding her whole body against the rushing water, and keeping the calf pressed against her huge body. Every now and then the rushing water would sweep the calf away.There was a sudden rise in the water and the calf was washed clean over the mother’s body and was gone. Ma Shwe turned quickly to reach it and pressed the calf with her head and trunk(象鼻)against the rocky bank. Then with a huge effort, she picked it up in her trunk and tried until she was able to place it on a narrow shelf of rock.Just at this moment she fell back into the river. If she were carried down, it would be certain death. I knew, as well as she did, that there was one spot(地点)where she could get up the bank, but it was on the other side from where she had put her calf.While I was wondering what I could do next, I heard the sound of a mother’s love. Ma Shwe had crossed the river and got up the bank and was making her way back as fast as she could, roaring(吼叫)all the time, but to her calf it was music.56.

外国语学院大学外语教学部2009年8月2009级《大学英语》分级考试试卷Part I. Reading Comprehension (40%)irections: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the questions or incomplete statements following the passage. You must read thefour choices marked A, B, C and D, and decide which is the best answer. Thenmark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line throughthe center.(2’×20)Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.It has been a widespread belief that the American family is dying. But a new study reveals that the American family is stronger than ever. This study affords surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life.The American family is changing, not dying. It is becoming smaller, men and women are becoming more equal, and the divorce rate is higher. But despite the high divorce rate, marriage has never been more popular. The majority of divorced people remarry, but only 2% marry more than twice. Most marriages last a long time, and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages. Depending on the specific situation, there’s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up.There is no evidence that children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home. So far the amount of educational or development time hasn’t varied very much, whether or not the mother works outside the home. In fact, working mothers try to make up for it by setting aside time only for their children.The study shows that television is by far the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century. The most important activity for children up to age 14 is watching television.School is the second most time-consuming activity for children. They spend an average of about 19 hours a week in school. A larger proportion of children go to school earlier than ever before, and they stay in school longer. Another big change is that the proportion of very young children in daycare centers (日托站) has almost doubled in recent years. Compared with these two dramatic changes in child activity, the changes caused by mothers working outside the home appear very small.1 The main idea of this article is that _______.A. the American family is dyingB. young people today don’t want to get marriedC. the American family is changing, but it is stronger than everD. education has resulted in dramatic changes in the American family2 Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. Marriage is more popular than before.B. Many divorced people remarry.C. The majority of marriages last long.D. Working mothers devote less time to their children.3 The author of this article believes that ________.A. the American family is here to stayB. children should not watch so much televisionC. mothers should not work when their children are smallD. teenage marriages should be encouraged4 What is the most significant new childcare arrangement of this century?A. The daycare center.B. Television.C. The school.D. Development time.5 According to the writer, which two major factors have led to the belief that the Americanfamily is dying?A. The divorce rate is high and working mothers neglect their children.B. The divorce rate is high and children care more about television than anything else.C. Divorces are increasing and many teenage marriages break up.D. Children stay in school longer and mothers have little time to take care of them. Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.What you give your relatives, friends, husband, or wife can help you know yourself better. Also, what they give you can tell you something about their personality. Most gift-giving (and getting) shows nothing more than the spirit of love and friendship. But it is possible to form some associations between the kinds of things bought and the people who buy them. Here is a guide to who gives you wha t --- and why.The clothes you wear tell something about your personality. They tell the world not only how you want to be seen but how you see yourself as well. When someone gives you something to wear that agrees with your self-image, they’re saying, “I agree with you. I like you the way you are.” Such a gift should be taken as a form of compliment. On the other hand, a gift of clothing that does not match your personality could be an insult to your character.Making something by hand has become the exception in many countries toda y-so much so that giving a homemade gift is sometimes considered unusual. If you receive a homemade gift, you’re lucky. It may not be made perfectly, but it will show a certain quality of love. People who give homemade gifts may be said to be very generous. They are given time and emotion, two important characteristics of being creative.A person who thinks of food when thinking of a gift is good example of what human warmth means. Whether you give a box of chocolates, a bag of oranges, or a ball of cheese, all carry the same message of comfort and support.People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to think they do. If you happen to receive a large, heavy book, this giver may be much more interested in the way things appear than in the way they actually are. Of course, reading is a way of feeling the emotions of another person and of learning new things. Giving a book can be a way of sharinga feeling or a newly learned meaning. The giver is probably trying to say to you what the book said to him.6 The first paragraph is written to tell readers that ________.A. the gifts you give can help you understand yourself betterB. the gifts you receive are helpful for you to know the personality of those who givethemC. gifts can show friendship and loveD. there is a certain relationship between the kinds of gifts and the people who givethem7 A person who likes the self-image of another person will give the latter ________.A. clothesB. a homemade giftC. a gift that agrees with the personality of the receiverD. a gift that matches the character of the giver8 Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?A. What you wear can tell something about your personality.B. Homemade gifts are not welcomed in some countries.C. People who give books as gifts either like reading or would like everyone to thinkthey do.D. Reading books given to you as gifts can be a way of sharing a feeling with the giver.9 If you give a large, heavy book as a gift, it may show that _________.A. you are knowledgeableB. the receiver is interested in readingC. you dislike readingD. you are more interested in the appearance of the book than in its contents10 People who want to show their love towards others often give _______.A. homemade giftsB. delicious foodC. expensive clothesD. interesting booksPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.My love of nature goes right back to my childhood, to the times when I stayed on my grandparent’s farm in Suffolk. I think it was my grandmother who encouraged me more thananyone: she taught me the names of wildflowers and got me interested in looking at the countryside, so it seemed obvious to go on to do zoology at university.I didn’t get my first camera until after I’d graduated, when I was due to go diving in Norway and needed a method of recording the sea creatures I would find there. My father didn’t know anything about photography, but he bought me an Exac ta, which was really quite a good camera for the time, and I went off to take my first pictures of sea starfish. I became keen very quickly, and I learnt how to develop and print.I’ve tried from the beginning to produce pictures which are always biologic ally correct. There are people who will alter things deliberately: you don’t pick up sea creatures from the middle of the shore and take them down to attractive pools at the bottom of the shore without knowing you’re doing it.There can be a lot of ignora nce in people’s behavior towards wild animals and it’s a problem that more and more people are going to wild places: while some animals may get used to cars, they won’t get used to people suddenly rushing up to them. The sheer pressure of people, coupled with the fact that there are increasingly few places where no one else has photographed, means that over the years, life has become much more difficult for the professional wildlife photographers.Nevertheless, wildlife photographers play a very important part in educating people about what is out there and what needs conserving. Although photography can be an enjoyable pastime, as it is to many people, it is also something that plays a very important part in educating young and old alike.11 The author decided to go to university and study zoology because _______________.A. she wanted to improve her life in the countrysideB. she was persuaded to do so by her grandmotherC. she was keen on the natural worldD. she wanted to stop moving around all the time12 How is the author different from some of the other wildlife photographers she meets?A. She tries to make her photographs as attractive as possible.B. She takes photographs which record accurate natural conditions.C. She likes to photograph plants as well as wildlife.D. She knows the best places to find wildlife.13 The author now finds it more difficult to photograph wild animals because______________.A. there are fewer of themB. they have become more nervous of peopleC. it is harder to find suitable placesD. they have become frightened of cars14 According to the author, wildlife photography is important because it can make peoplerealize that ___________________.A. photography is an enjoyable hobbyB. we learn little about wildlife at schoolC. it is worthwhile visiting the countrysideD. it is important to look after wild animals15 Which of the following describes the author?A. Proud.B. Sensitive.C. Aggressive.D. Disappointed.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage.If you have been joining in chat room conversations, or trading e-mail with net pals, you have become one of the millions who write in a special, short form of English.Throughout the world, every night children and their elders are “talking” onlin e-many of them are talking at the same time.It is fast: trying talking to six people at once. It is convenient: three or four words per exchange. It takes cleverness, concentration and quick fingers.And it requires very simple language. There’s neither time nor space for explanations. Why waste precious key-strokes telling six friends you have to leave for a moment to take care of your little brother when BRB(= be right back) will do?Want to enter a conversation? Just type PMFJI (= pardon me for jumping in).Interested in whom you’re talking to? Type A/S/L, the common request to know your pal’s age, sex and location. You may get 15/M/NY as a reply from your pal.If something makes you laugh, say you’re OTF (= on the floor), or LOL (= laughing out loud), or join the two into ROTFL (= rolling on the floor laughing).And when it’s time to get back to work or go to bed, you type GTG (= got to go) or TTYL (= talk to you later).People want to write as fast as possible, and they want to get their ideas across as quickly as they can. Capital letters are left in the dust, except when expressing feelings, as it takes more time to hold down the “shift” key and use capitals. Punctuation is going, too.16 When people are online, they talk by_____.A. using body language.B. drawing some strange picturesC. making phone callsD. making use of an especially short form of English17 Internet makes many people in the world ______.A. talk at the same timeB. discover their friends and relativesC. pick out good things to buyD. find out about some problems in society18 The underlined sentence “There’s neither time nor space for explanation”(L.1, para. 4)means that _____.A. people should use words properlyB. people should know what time it is when they are talkingC. people online have to express themselves in a simple wayD. people should communicate in a funny way19 If you get 19/M/HK as an answer to your A/S/L, it means ______.A. the person who is talking to you is 19 from Hong Kong and he is highB. you are talking to a boy 19 years old and he lives in Hong KongC. you are talking to 19 boys from Hong Kong at the same timeD. the boy from Hong Kong has been online for 19 minutes20 Which of the following is a way to save online time?A. People seldom use capital letters or punctuation marks.B. Many people draw pictures.C. People only use the mouse instead of the keyboard.D. People never use the “shift” key.Part II.
