A All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition:to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping.For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised.It said:“Remember,once a week,one of our customers gets free goods.This May Be Your Lucky Day!”For several weeks Mrs.Edwards hoped,like many of her friends,to be the lucky customer.Unlike her friends,she never gave up hoping.The cupboards in kitchen were full of things which she did not need.Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed.She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say:“Madam,this is Your Lucky Day.Everything in your basket is free.”One Friday morning,after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car,she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea.She dashed back to the supermarket,got the tea and went towards the cash-desk.As she did so,she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her.“Madam,”he said,holding out his hand,“I want to congratulate you!You are our lucky customer and everything you have

Deep inside a mountain near Sweetwater in East.Tennessee is a body of water known as the Lost Sea.It is listed by the Guinness Book of Would Records as the world’s largest underground lake.The Lost Sea is part of an extensive and historic cave system called Craighead Caverns.The caverns have been known and used since the days of the Cherokee Indian nation.The cave expands into a series of huge rooms from a small opening on the side of the mountain.Approximately one mile from the entrance,in a room called “The Council Room,”many Indian artisfacts have been found.Some of the items discovered include pottery,arrowheads,weapons,and jewelry.For many years there were persistent rumors of a large underground lake somewhere in a cave,but it was not discovered until 1905.In that year,a thirteen-year-old boy named Ben Sands crawled through a small opening three hundred feet underground.He found himself in a large cave half filled with water.○…………外…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○…………学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________○…………内…………○…………装…………○…………订…………○…………线…………○…………Today tourists visit the Lost Sea and ride far out onto it in glass-bottomed boats powered by electric motors.More than thirteen acres of water have been mapped out so far and still no end to the lake has been found.Even though teams of divers have tried to explore the Lost Sea,the full extent of it is still unknown.41.The Lost Sea is unique because it is ________.part of a historical cave systemthe biggest underground lake in the world listed in the Guinness Book of World Records the largest body of water in Tennessee 42.The Craighead Caverns have been known ________.A.through history B.since the time of the Indian nations C.since

Indian meeting ground C.a tourist attraction D.a motor boat race course C Passage Three Generations of Americans have been brought up to believe that a good breakfast is one life’s essentials.Eating breakfast at the start of the day,we have all been told,and told again,is as necessary as putting gasoline in the family car before starting a trip.But for many people the thought of food first thing in the morning is by no means a pleasure.So despite all the efforts,they still take no breakfast.Between

available,the number of people who didn’t have breakfast,increased by 33percent.For those who feel pain of guilt about not eating breakfast,however,there is some good news.Several studies in the last few years indicate that,for adults especially,there may be nothing wrong with omitting breakfast.“Going without breakfast does not affect performance,”said Arrold E.Bender,former professor of thenutrition at Queen Elizabeth College in London,“nor does giving people breakfast improve performance.”Scientific evidence linking breakfast to better health or better performance is surprisingly inadequate,and most of the recent work involves children,not adults,“The literature”,says one researcher,Dr.Erresto at the University of Texas,“is poor”.46.The latest year for which figures could be obtained is _______.A.the year the author wrote the article B.1977C.any year between 1997and 1983D.198347.For those who do not take breakfast,the good news is that _______.several studies have been done in the past few years the omission of breakfast does no harm to one’s health adults have especially made studies in this field eating little in the morning is good for health 48.“…nor does giving people breakfast improve performance”means ______.anyone without breakfast does improve his performance not giving people breakfast improve performance having breakfast does not improve performance,either people having breakfast do improve their performance 49.The word “literature”in the last sentence refers to _______.A.stories,poems,plays,etc.B.written works on a particular subject C.any printed material D.the modern literature of America 50.What is implied but NOT stated by the author is that _______.breakfast does not affect performance Dr.Erresto is engaged in research work

breakfast might affect the health of children Professor Bender once taught college courses in nutrition in London D About 35%of all high school graduates in America continue their education in an institution of higher learning.The word college is used to refer to either a college or a university.These institutions offer four-year programs that lead to a Bachelor ofArts (B.A.)or Bachelor Science (B.S.)degree.Some students attend a junior college (providing only a two-year program)for one to two years before entering a four-year college as a sophomore (二年级生)or junior (三年级生).It is generally easier to be accepted at a state university than at a private one.Most private schools require strict entrance examinations and a high grade point average (GPA),as well as specific college prep classes in high school.Private schools cost considerably more than state colleges and famous private schools are very expensive.Poorer students can sometimes attend,however,by earning scholarships.Some college graduates go on to earn advanced masters or doctoral degrees in grad (graduate)school.Occupations in certain fields such as law or medicine require such advanced studies.Since college costs are very high,most students work at part-time jobs.Some have full-time jobs and go to school part-time.Often some will take five or more years to complete a four-year program because of money /job demands on their time.While the college and work demands take up the great part of a student’s time,most still enjoy social activities.Sports,dances,clubs,movies,and plays are all very popular.However,gathering together for long,philosophical talks at a favorite meeting place on or near the university is probably the most popular activity.51.College education is _______in America.A.quite common B.very rare C.something difficult D.almost impossible 52.Which of the following is NOT required for entering most private schools.A.entrance examinations B.taking part

Music is not an add-on,a“soft”subject or a luxury—it is absolutely essential to our existence. Every child deserves the opportunity to experience its benefits.Until music is held in the same regard as the“core”subjects of our curriculum,our society will be worse off.We need joy, empathy（共情）and hope on this planet more than ever,and taking away children’s opportunity to develop musical skills is to set ourselves up for a fall.Despite the many brilliant programs and projects to encourage young musicians(“Every Child a Musician,”“Awards for Young Musicians,”to name but a few),we are reaching a crisis point.We are in danger of destroying creativity, innovation（创新）and expression.Learning an instrument can help develop so many fundamental life skills.It promotes discipline, empathy,determination and cooperation as well as providing a sense of community and worth. Music has changed my life.It is a huge part of who I am.I have learned so much about the world through music and the inspiring figures I have met through it I feel I have a duty to help ensure that others can benefit from its magic.Let us make it available to every single child.36、Why did the author raise the question on music education?A.The funding for music education has been cut.B.The band the author joined in has broken up.C.The project the author was in no longer exists.D.The tuition fee for music training has risen.37、What does the author think of the role of music?A.It is important for dealing with social crises.B.It may offer children future job opportunities.C.It is fundamental to the growth of a child.D.It can help children learn core subjects.２０２０年成人高考专升本《英语》真题及解析38、What is the theme of the passage?A.Music education should be available to every child.B.Music training programs should be provided free.C.Music should be placed at the top of the curriculum.D.Music should be made popular across the country.39、What is the author’s attitude towards music?A.Positive.B.Critical.C.Doubtful.D.Indifferent.Passage TwoIn2011,a dog owner named Robert uploaded a video titled“Guilty!”to YouTube.He had come home finding his two dogs near an empty bag of cat treats.The first dog behaved calmly.But the second dog,Denver,sat shaking in a corner,her eyes looking down,which made Robert believe it was she who had done it.Seeing her“apparent admission of guilt,”he yelled at her,“You did this!”Denver beat her tail nervously.“You know the routine.In the kennel（狗窝）!”Following the command,the dog shut herself in.The video quickly gathered a flood of comments.Since then,“dog shaming”has become popular on the internet,as owners around the world posted beside notes shots of their trembling pets in which the dogs seemed to admit bad behavior.For instance,“I ate an extra large pizza,”admits a chocolate Lab.Human enthusiasm for guilty dogs seemed growing.But according to a researcher at Barnard College,what we consider to be a dog’s guilty look is no sign of guilt at all.In a2009study,the researcher had owners forbid their dogs from eating an attractive treat,and then asked the owners to leave the room.While each owner was gone,the researcher either removed the treat or fed it to the dog.When the owners returned,they were told —regardless of the truth—that their dogs either had or had not eaten it.If owners thought their dogs had done something wrong,blames followed,and guilty looks quickly emerged.Yet dogs who hadn’t eaten the treat were more likely to appear guilty than dogs who had—so long as their owners scolded them.Far from signaling regret,one group of researchers wrote in a2012paper, the guilty look of dogs is very likely a means to show obedience（顺从）to their owners.40、What did Robert want to show with his video on YouTube?A.Dogs’conflict with other pets.B.Dogs’naughty behaviors.C.Dogs’trust in their owners.D.Dogs’apparent guilty looks.41、How did people react to Robert’s video?A.They started to share dog-shaming photos.B.They began to blame their own dogs.C.They began to read stories about dogs.D.They started to show sympathy for his dog.42、What does“a chocolate Lab”in Paragraph2refer to?A.A scientist.B.A dog.C.A researcher.D.A cat.43、Why do dogs wear a guilty look according to the researchers?A.To attract their owners attention.B.To deceive their owners.C.To beg their owners for treats.D.To show obedience to their owners.Passage ThreeIn the race to the moon,who came in first?You might say the answer is Neil Armstrong,Buzz Aldrin,and Michael Collins,the crew of Apollo11.Or you could represent for the crew of Apollo10,which reached the moon in May 1969and then headed back to Earth without landing.But there is a much stranger answer to this question,depending on how much you care about humans and what your definition（定义）of reaching the moon might be.Before any people arrived at the moon,other animals had got there first.And unlike the dogs and monkeys that were made famous in early space shots and Earth orbits,the first creatures to reach the moon were a pair of tortoises,Discovery’s Amy Shira Teitel reminded us.The Soviet spacecraft（航天器）sent the animals around the moon—although not into its orbit—during a mission in the middle of September,1968.The unmanned（无人驾驶的）craft then returned to Earth and dashed into the Indian Ocean,after which the Russians recovered the craft.A month later,Soviet scientists revealed that the spacecraft had been a tiny ship,carrying the tortoises,wine flies,meal worms,plants,seeds,bacteria,and other living matter.The tortoises,as history records,lost about10percent of their body weight,but had a healthy appetite when they returned to Earth.In the following checkups comparing the animals to “stay-at-home turtles used as a test control,”most things seemed normal,aside from some vaguely explained minor problems with the liver.What this all means is that,as Teitel explained,“The first living beings to see an Earthrise from the Moon were Russian tortoises.However,as far as I can tell,the animals were not named.”44、According to the passage,which of the following reached the moon first?A.A pair of tortoises.２０２０年成人高考专升本《英语》真题及解析B.American astronauts.C.Russian astronauts.D.Dogs and monkeys.45、What happened to the Soviet spacecraft?A.It was wrecked during the mission.B.It was recovered after its return to Earth.C.It stayed in the moon’s orbit.D.It disappeared in the outer space.46、What was the biggest change in the tortoises in Paragraph6?A.They showed abnormal behaviors.B.They had serious liver problems.C.They lost their appetite for food.D.They had obviously lost weight.47、What do Teitel’s words in the last paragraph imply?A.The tortoises were fond of seeing Earthrise.B.The tortoises were not given due credit for their experience.C.The tortoises were not named after the Soviet spacecraft.D.The tortoises were famous all over the world.Passage FourVegans try to live,as much as possible,in a way that avoids exploiting and being cruel to animals.“his means following a plant-based diet.Vegans do not eat animals or animal-based products like meat,fish,seafood,eggs,honey and dairy products such as cheese.For many vegans,living a committed vegan lifestyle means not wearing clothes made from animal skins and avoiding any products which have been tested on animals.Vegans argue that suffering is caused in the production of these foods.For example,they say that, on some dairy farms,male calves（小牛）are killed because they are too expensive to keep,and cows are killed when they get older and produce less milk.As for honey,vegans say that bees make honey for bee,not for humans,and that bees’health can suffer when humans take the honey from them.Vegans believe that the products they use and consume should be free from not just cruelty but any exploitation of animals.The main reason for going vegan is probably that they believe animals and all other sentient（有感知能力的）beings should have the right to life and freedom.However,there are other reasons. Vegans argue that the production of meat and other animal products is very bad for the environment.They point out that a huge quantity of water is needed to grow grain to feed animals in the meat industry.The enormous amount of grain which the meat industry needs often leads to forests being cut down and habitats（栖息地）being lost.In contrast,much lower quantities of grain and water are needed to sustain a vegan diet.In addition,many vegans say that all the nutritious elements our bodies need are contained in a carefully planned vegan diet and that thistype of diet helps prevent some diseases.48、What is a vegan in this passage?A.A person who likes to grow vegetables.B.A person who is fond of eating meat.C.A person who keeps a plant-based diet.D.A person who stays away from animals.49、Which of the following could be found in a vegan’s diet?A.Eggs.B.Honey.k.D.Potatoes.50、What belief do vegans hold?A.Animals can help improve the environment.B.Animals have the right to life and freedom.C.Animal products lead to the rise of grain output.D.Animal products are far more nutritious.51、What does the author want to imply in this passage?A.Going vegan consumes more water and grain.B.Going vegan enables people to live a healthier life.C.Going vegan helps to develop meat industry.D.Going vegan has been a lifestyle for the majorities.Passage FiveThere are many interesting news items in BP’s（英国石油公司）annual Energy Outlook just published.But perhaps the most astonishing suggestion in the report is the idea that cutting back on plastic use could make matters worse.This might be what you would expect BP to say.After all, as one of the world’s biggest oil companies,it makes a lot of money from selling products in plastic.But let’s look at the thinking behind BP’s argument.If the current opposing idea about the use of plastic continues,there could be a worldwide ban on single-use plastics by2040.But the document argues that switching plastic for other materials will have a bigger cost in terms of energy and carbon emissions（排放）.That sounds like the law of unintended（非故意的）consequences in action.When plastic bags are measured against paper or cotton substitutes,a BBC analysis found there wasn’t a great deal of difference in their environmental impact.Paper bags require fewer reuses to make them more environmentally friendly than single-use plastic bags,which means customers have to replace paper bags more frequently.Environmentalists,though,are not entirely convinced.They think that BP is stressing the problem of banning plastic for its own interest.“While it’s true that it takes less energy to produce and２０２０年成人高考专升本《英语》真题及解析transport plastic than glass,a glass bottle can be reused dozens of times and is recyclable.Plus, materials like glass when they escape collection don’t go on polluting our oceans and rivers for hundreds of years,"said Louise Edge,from Greenpeace UK.Steps to encourage recycling are being taken.The UK,for example,will introduce a new tax on the manufacture and import of plastic packaging in2022.There are also lots of developments taking place with alternative materials.These may be the final defense against the unintended consequences of plastic bans.52、What is astonishing about BP’s annual report?A.BP has earned a lot of money by selling plastic products.B.Cutting back on plastic use may bring more problems.C.BP has become one of the world’s biggest oil companies.D.Cutting back on plastic use may affect product quality.53、Which of the following could be banned worldwide by2040?A.Second-hand cotton begs.B.Reusable paper bags.C.Single-use plastic bags.D.Recyclable glass bottles.54、According to environmentalists，what causes BP to oppose banning plastics?A.Its consideration of its own interest.B.Its worry about the loss of consumers.C.Its desire to influence world economy.D.Its concern about the environment.55、What measure is being taken by the UK to cut back on the use of plastics?A.Forbidding the import of plastic bags.B.Banning the manufacture of plastic bags.C.Taxing on the use of plastic bags.D.Developing alternative materials to plastic.五、补全对话V、Daily Conversation（15points）Directions：Pick out appropriate expressions from the eight choices below and complete the following dialogue by blackening the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.A.How about your presentation?B.He needs it for tomorrow’s presentation.C.I think so.D.Where are you heading?E.You are welcome.F.No problem!G.What can I do for you?H.No,thanks!Alice:Hi,Sam!It’s nice to see you here.Sam:Hi,Alice!Alice:___56___Sam:To my dorm.Alice:Great!Could you take this book to Peter?Sam:___57___Does Peter know what it is for?Alice:Yes.___58___Sam:___59___Are you well prepared for it?Alice:___60___See you tomorrow!Sam:See you!六、写作第II卷（非选择题，共25分）VI、Writing（25points）Directions：For this part,you are supposed to write an e-mail in about100-120words based on the following situation.Remember to write it clearly.61、你（Li Yuan）收到美国朋友Thomas的e-mail，他提及要来中国留学的想法。

2020年成考高起本《英语》试题及答案（卷二）At one time, computers were expected largely to remove the need for paper copies of documents(文件) because they could be stored electronically. But for the texts that are written, stored and sent electronically, a lot of them are still ending up on paper.It is difficult to measure the quantity of paper used as a result of use of internet-connected computers, although just about anyone who works in an office can tell you that when email is introduced, the printers start working overtime. “I feel this revolution is causing more trees to be cut down,”says Ted Smith of the Earth Village Organization.Perhaps the best sign of how computer and Internet use pushes up demand for paper comes from the high-tech industry itself,which sees printing as one of its most promising new markets.Several Internet companies have been set up to help small businesses print quality documents from a computer.Earlier this week Hewlett-Packard Co. announced a plan to develop new technologies that will enable people to print even more so they can get a hard copy of a business document, a medical record or just a one-line e-mail, even if they are nowhere near a computer. As the company sees it, the more use of the Internet the greater demand for printers.Does all this mean environmental concerns(环境问题) have been forgotten? Some activists suggest people have been led to believe that alot of dangers to the environment have gone away.“I guess people believe that the problem is taken care of, because of recycling(回收利用)，”said Kelly Quirke, director of the Rainforest Action Net work in San Francisco.Yes Quirke is hopeful that high-tech may also prove helpful.He says printers that print on both sides are growing in popularity.The action group has also found acceptable paper made from materials other than wood,such as agricultural waste.(1)What would be the best title for the text?A. Computers and PrintersB. E-mail and the Business WorldC: Internet Revolution and EnvironmentD. Modern Technology and New Markets答案：C解析：主旨大意题，排除法。

Reading prehension（60 points）Directions：There are five reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by four questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D.Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneMusic is part of the structure of our society; it sits at the heart of human experience and enriches （丰富）so many lives. Why, then, is it not central to our education system? This is a question I recently put forward to an all—party group on music education.I am 20 years old and began playing the piano at the Barracudas Band in Barrow—in—Furness, aged seven. The funding for the centre has now been cut. I took part in the primary tuition project, aged 11. The funding for that has also been cut now. It is a mon problem across the country.Music is not an add—on, a“soft”subject or a luxury-it is absolutely essential to our existence. Every child deserves the opportunity to experience its benefits. Until music is held in the same regard as the“core”subjects of our curriculum, our society will be worse off. We need joy, empathy（共情）and hope on this planet more than ever, and taking away children’s opportunity to develop musical skills is to set ourselves up for a fall. Despite the many brilliant programs and projects to encourage young musicians （“Every Child a Musician,”“Awards for Young Musicians,”to name but a few）, we are reaching a crisis point. We are in danger of destroying creativity, innovation（创新）and expression. Learning an instrument can help develop so many fundamental5 / 26life skills. It promotes discipline, empathy, determination and cooperation as well as providing a sense of munity and worth.Music has changed my life. It is a huge part of who I am. I have learned so much about the world through music and the inspiring figures I have met through it. I feel I have a duty to help ensure that others can benefit from its magic. Let us make it available to every single child.36.Why did the author raise the question on music education?A.The funding for music education has been cutB.The band the author joined in has broken upC.The project the author was in no longer existsD.The tuition fee for music training has risen37.What does the author think of the role of music?A.It is important for dealing with social crisesB.It may offer children future job opportunitiesC.It is fundamental to the growth of a childD.It can help children learn core subjects38.What is the theme of the passage?A.Music education should be available to every childB.Music training programs should be provided freeC.Music should be placed at the top of the curriculumD.Music should be made popular across the country39.What is the author’s attitude towards music?A.PositiveB. CriticalC. DoubtfulD. Indifferent.6 / 26Passage TwoIn 2011, a dog owner named Robert uploaded a video titled“Guilty!”to YouTube. He had e home finding his two dogs near an empty bag of cat treats. The first dog behaved calmly. But the second dog, Denver, sat shaking in a corner, her eyes looking down, which made Robert believe it was she who had done it. Seeing her“apparent admission of guilt,”he yelled at her,“You did this!”Denver beat her tail nervously. “You know the routine. In the kennel（狗窝）!”Following the mand, the dog shut herself in.The video quickly gathered a flood of ments. Since then,“dog shaming”has bee popular on the internet, as owners around the world posted beside notes shots of their trembling pets in which the dogs seemed to admit bad behavior. For instance,“I ate an extra large pizza,”admits a chocolate Lab. Human enthusiasm for guilty dogs seemed growing.But according to a researcher at Barnard College,what we consider to be a dog’s guilty look is no sign of guilt at all. In a 2009 study, the researcher had owners forbid their dogs from eating an attractive treat, and then asked the owners to leave the room. While each owner was gone, the researcher either removed the treat or fed it to the dog. When the owners returned, they were told—regardless of the truth—that their dogs either had or had not eaten it. If owners thought their dogs had done something wrong, blames followed, and guilty looks quickly emerged. Yet dogs who hadn’t eaten the treat were more likely to appear guilty than dogs who had—so long as their owners scolded them. Far from signaling regret, one group of researchers wrote in a 2012 paper, the guilty look of dogs is very likely a means to show obedience（顺从）to their owners.40.What did Robert want to show with his video on YouTube?7 / 26A.Dogs’ conflict with other petsB. Dogs’ naughty behaviorsC. Dogs’ trust in their ownersD. Dogs’ apparent guilty looks41.How did people react to Robert’s video?A.They started to share dog-shaming photosB.They began to blame their own dogsC.They began to read stories about dogsD.They started to show sympathy for his dog.42.What does“a chocolate Lab”in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.A scientistB. A dogC. A researcherD. A cat43.Why do dogs wear a guilty look according to the researchers?A.To attract their owners’ attentionB. To deceive their ownersC. To beg their owners for treatsD. To show obedience to their ownersPassage ThreeIn the race to the moon, who came in first?You might say the answer is Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, and Michael Collins, the crew of Apollo 11. Or you could represent for the crew of Apollo 10, which reached the moon in May 1969 and then headed back to Earth without landing.But there is a much stranger answer to this question, depending on how much you care about humans and what your definition（定义）of reaching the moon might be. Before any people arrived at the moon, other animals had got there first. And unlike the dogs and monkeys that were made famous in early space shots and Earth orbits, the first creatures to reach the moon were a pair of tortoise s, Discovery’s Amy Shira Teitel reminded us.8 / 26The Soviet spacecraft（航天器）sent the animals around the moon—although not into its orbit—during a mission in the middle of September, 1968. The unmanned（无人驾驶的）craft then returned to Earth and dashed into the Indian Ocean, after which the Russians recovered the craft.A month later, Soviet scientists revealed that the spacecraft had been a tiny ship, carrying the tortoises, wine flies, meal worms, plants, seeds, bacteria, and other living matter.The tortoises, as history records, lost about 10 percent of their body weight, but had a healthy appetite when they returned to Earth. In the following checkups paring the animals to“stay—at—home turtles used as a test control,”most things seemed normal, aside from some vaguely explained minor problems with the liver.What this all means is that, as Teitel explained,“The first living beings to see an Earthrise from the Moon were Russian tortoises. However, as far as I can tell, the animals were not named.”44.According to the passage, which of the following reached the moon first?A.A pair of tortoisesB. American astronautsC. Russian astronautsD. Dogs and monkeys45.What happened to the Soviet spacecraft?A.It was wrecked during the missionB.It was recovered after its return to EarthC.It stayed in the moon’s orbitD.It disappeared in the outer space46.What was the biggest change in the tortoises in Paragraph 6?A.They showed abnormal behaviorsB. They had serious liver problems9 / 26C. They lost their appetite for foodD. They had obviously lost weight47.What do Teitel’s words in the last paragraph imply?A.The tortoises were fond of seeing EarthriseB.The tortoises were not given due credit for their experienceC.The tortoises were not named after the Soviet spacecraftD.The tortoises were famous all over the worldPassage FourVegans try to live, as much as possible, in a way that avoids exploiting and being cruel to animals. This means following a plant-based diet. Vegans do not eat animals or animal—based products like meat, fish, seafood, eggs, honey and dairy products such as cheese. For many vegans, living a mitted vegan lifestyle means not wearing clothes made from animal skins and avoiding any products which have been tested on animals.Vegans argue that suffering is caused in the production of these foods. For example, they say that, on some dairy farms, male calves（小牛）are killed because they are too expensive to keep, and cows are killed when they get older and produce less milk. As for honey, vegans say that bees make honey for bee, not for humans, and that bees’ health can suffer when humans take the honey from them. Vegans believe that the products they use and consume should be free from not just cruelty but any exploitation of animals.The main reason for going vegan is probably that they believe animals and all other sentient（有感知能力的）beings should have the right to life and freedom. However, there are other reasons. Vegans argue that the production of meat and other animal products is very bad for the environment. They point out that a huge quantity of water is needed to grow grain to feed animals in the meat industry. The enormous amount of grain which the meat industry needs often leads to forests being cut down and habitats（栖息10 / 26地）being lost. In contrast, much lower quantities of grain and water are needed to sustain a vegan diet. In addition, many vegans say that all the nutritious elements our bodies need are contained in a carefully planned vegan diet and that this type of diet helps prevent some diseases.48.What did“doing nothing”mean to the space engineer at first?A.Outdoor activitiesB. A waste of timeC. Few daily schedulesD. More family hours48.What is a vegan in this passage?A.A person who likes to grow vegetablesB.A person who is fond of eating meatC.A person who keeps a plant-based dietD.A person who stays away from animals49.Which of the following could be found in a vegan’s diet?A.EggsB. HoneyC. MilkD. Potatoes50.What belief do vegans hold?A.Animals can help improve the environmentB.Animals have the right to life and freedomC.Animal products lead to the rise of grain outputD.Animal products are far more nutritious51.What does the author want to imply in this passage?A.Going vegan consumes more water and grainB.Going vegan enables people to live a healthier lifeC.Going vegan helps to develop meat industry11 / 26D.Going vegan has been a lifestyle for the majoritiesPassage FiveThere are many interesting news items in BP’s（英国石油公司）annual Energy Outlook just published.

Proper Time for a Job InterviewBMaria Mitchell ( 1818 - 1889 ), the first woman astronomer ( 天文学家) in the United States,was born in Nantucket, Massachusetts. Her parents valued education and insisted on giving her thesame quality of education that boys received.Her father, William Mitchell, was an astronomer and teacher himself. When he built his ownschool, Maria became a student and also a teaching assistant to him. At home, Maria' s father taughther to watch the stars and other natural objects in space using his personal telescope (望远镜).Later she went to work at the library of the Nantucket Atheneum. Over the next twenty years,she further developed her interest in reading as many books as she could. She spent her nightswatchingo the sky closely with her father.On October 1,1847 ,Mafia discovered a comet (彗星) by merely using a two-inch telescope.Some years before, King Frederick V[ of Denmark had set up prizes to each discoverer of a"telescopic comet". The prize was to be given to the "first discoverer" of each such comet becausecomets were often discovered by more than one person.There was once a question of who should be the winner. As the story goes, Francesco de Vicohad discovered the same comet two days later, but had reported it to the European officialor~ ni~tion first. However,after some discussion this was settled in Mitchell' s favor. She won the ptite in 1848 and became a big name the world over. The comet was named "Miss Mitchell' s Comet".40. What can be learnt about Mafia' s parents according to the text?A. They came from low-income families.B. They gave Mafia equal chance for education.C. They were both astronomers.D.

Students can master some basicskills in art class that they cannot find in a normal classroom. Allow me to share why you have to take art class.First and most important ,it stimulates creativity (激发创造力). Art schools encourage you tothink outside the box and be creative enough to create something artistic. It can be used not only in art but in life, too Besides, it helps you make the right choice. In art class, you are usually free to do what you want. In every art class, you are required to make decisions that can determine what your painting will turn out to be.In addition,students can learn the art of critical (批判性的) thinking as a skill of observation (观看). For example, art students find ways to imagine. That is a skill they need to become better readers and problem settlers.What is more, it is noted that the company' s bosses are actively looking for employees who can think creatively. Creative thinking is one of the most important skills that students can learn in art courses.Finally, students who are trained in art class have interesting mental habits. They learn how to work on a task for a long time and how to continue to work even if they are discouraged. They are better for creating a link between the classroom and the outside world. In addition, children who do art work are able to look back on their work and make judgments about themselves.44. Why are art programs removed from many schools?A. To make students have their own hobbies.B. To improve students' test scores and save money.C. To help students master some job skills.D. To give students more free time.45. What is the most important quality students develop in art class?A. Determination.B. Carefulness.C. Creativity.D. Honesty.46. What can we learn from the text?A. Art students are easily employed.B. Art programs may bring a lot of money.C. Art class can help students in many ways.D. Art teachers should pay more attention to tests.DYou know what a hotel is, of course. And perhaps, you also know what a condo is--a residential(居住的) building divided into separate units that are owned by different people. What you may not know is that in some U. S. cities, the two have come together into something called a "condo hotel".Some condo hotels can now be found in beach and mountain towns and a few small cities.However, none is more famous than the great lOS-year-old Plaza Hotel in New York, on Fifth Avenue across from Central Park. The Plaza closed for repair in 2005. When it reopened two years later, more than half of it had been changed into one of these modern condo hotels.Here' s how it works : You buy what equals to an apartment (公寓). If it' s at The Plaza, it will cost you between $1.5 million and $9 million. So you own a part of the building. But there' s some inconvinience. You may stay there no more than 120 days a year. The rest of the time, the hotel' sworkers can book guests into your place,just as they would in the regular hotel' s rooms. So if you' re lucky and rich,you can now live in really special quarters up to almost one third of the year,while others pay off your mortgage (房贷) the rest of the year.So far,a great many of the nation's condo hotel units have been purcltased not by rich peoplebut by richer companies, including foreign ones. They want a nice place for their bosses to stay when they're in town or working late at the office.47. A condo is a place where peopleA. liveB. workC. eatD. study48. How long can you stay in your own condo hotel unit at most each year?A. 120 days.B. One month.C. Half a year.D. Three months.49. What does purchased in the last paragraph probably mean?A. Closed.B. Bought.C. Damaged.D. Repaired.50. What do we know about a condo hotel?A. It is designed by rich companies.B. It is built for foreign travellers.C. It is usually sold at a low price.D. It is owned by different people.第二卷【五】补全对话：提示：Lucy要去艺术展览中心，向一位男士问路，该男士告诉她如何前往。

Custom has also governed the common practice in regard to its use. All the armed services have precise regulations on how to display the national flag. This may vary somewhat from the general rules. The national flag should be raised and lowered by hand. Do not raise the flag while it is folded. Unfold the flag first, and then hoist it quickly to the top of the flagpole. Lower it slowly and with dignity. Place no objects on or over the flag. Do not use the flag as part of a costume or athletic uniform. Do not print it upon cushions, handkerchiefs, paper napkins or boxes. A federal law provides that the trademark cannot be registered if it comprises the flag, or badgers of the US. When the flag is used to unveil a statue or monument, it shouldn't serve as a covering of the object to be unveiled. If it is displayed on such occasions, do not allow the flag to fall to the ground, but let itbe carried high up in the air to form a feature of the ceremony. Take every precaution to prevent the flag from soiled. It should not be allowed to touch the ground or floor, nor to brush against objects.(1)、How do Americans ensure proper respect for the national flag? _________A：By making laws.B：By enforcing discipline.C：By educating the public.D：By holding ceremonies.答案：A(2)、What is the regulation regarding the raising of the American National Flag? _________A：It should be raised by soldiers.B：It should be raised quickly by hand.C：It should be raised only by Americans.D：It should be raised by mechanical means.答案：B(3)、How should the American National Flag be displayed at an unveiling ceremony? _________A：It should be attached to the status.B：It should be hung from the top of the monument.C：It should be spread over the object to be unveiled.D：It should be carried high up in the air.答案：D(4)、What do we learn about the use of the American National Flag? _________A：There has been a lot of controversy over the use of flag.B：The best athletes can wear uniforms with the design of the flag.C：There are precise regulations and customs to be followed.D：Americans can print the flag on their cushions or handkerchiefs.答案：C(5)、What is Americans' attitude towards their National Flag? _________A：Arbitrary.B：Respect.C：Happy.D：Brave.答案：B2019年成人高考高起点英语练习题及答案（3）阅读理解What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is "no". It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that makes him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answers he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.The scientist's knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the Theory of Relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of his mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einstein's ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.(1)、What makes a scientist according to the passage? ________A：The tools he uses.B：The way he uses his tools.C：His ways of learning.D：The various tools he uses.答案：B(2)、The underlined part in the passage shows_______.A：the importance of informationB：the importance of thinkingC：the difference between scientists and ordinary peopleD：the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs.答案：C(3)、A sound scientific theory should be one that _________.A：works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same conditions at other timesB：does not allow any changes even under different conditionsC：can be used for many purposesD：leave no room for improvement答案：A(4)、The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate __________.A：that measurements are keys to success in scienceB：that accuracy of mathematicsC：that investigations are important in scienceD：that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations答案：C(5)、What is the main idea of the passage? ________A：The theory of relativity.B：Exactness is the core of science.C：Scientists are different from ordinary people.D：Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.答案：D。
