It was originally built as a hunting chateau by King Louis VIII in 1624. In 1669, King Louis XIV began searching for a grand site where he could conduct the affairs of France and control the government. He settled on the hunting palace and expanded it into the world’s largest palace. In addition, the King hoped to build a governmental center apart from Paris.The palace took 36,000 workers fifty years to build. The palace is spread out over 280 acres and can house 20,000 people! The palace features over 700rooms and 67 staircases. There are dozens of unique rooms, features, gardens, and halls. One of the most renowned rooms of the Palace of Versailles is the Hall of Mirrors. Recently restored, the Hall of Mirrors is the centerpiece of the dazzling building. Originally added to the palace in 1684, the Hall of Mirrors was built to be a dazzling display of the power and wealth of the French Monarchy. The hall, which measures 73 meters in length features 357 gold-coated stucco mirrors, ornate paintings, crystal chandeliers, marble fixtures, a parquet floor, and ceilings with colorful murals painted by artist Charles Le Brun. The Hall of Mirrors has also played a prominent role in history. Both the proclamation of the German Empire in 1871 after the Franco-Prussian War and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles that formally ended World War One were signed here.21.

A History of France.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage :“It hurts me more than you,” and “This is for your own good.” These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, clean my room, stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children’s passivity. “We’re not training kids to work any more,” says Klompus. “We’re talking about a generation of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying ‘go look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy t o say no to a kid.”Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It’s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but it’s for their own good. It’s time to start telling them no again.26. Children are becoming more inactive in study because ________.A) they watch TV too oftenB) they have done too much homeworkC) they have to fulfill too many dutiesD) teachers are too strict with them27. To such children as described in the passage ________.A) it is easier to say no than to say yesB) neither is easy – to say yes or to say noC) it is easier to say yes than to say noD) neither is difficult -- to say yes or say no28. We learn from the p assage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis on ________.A) learning Latin B) natural developmentC) discipline D) education at school29. By “permissive period in education” the author means a time ________.A) when children are allowed to do what they wish toB) when everything can be taught at schoolC) when every child can be educatedD) when children are permitted to receive education30. The main idea of the passage is that ________.A) parents should leave their children aloneB) kids should have more activities at schoolC) it’s time to be stricter with our kidsD) parents should always set a good example to their kidsQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Manners are very important in every country, but the trouble is that different countries have different ideas about what counts as polite behavior. What is good manners in one country may not be appropriate behavior in another. Chinese people may be shocked at what counts as good manners in England.When an Englishman passes a friend in the street he does not always stop to talk. He may just nod, say "hello" and pass on. If two friends do stop to talk, they do not shake hands. It is only at parties for young people (students, for instance) that a person could go up to someone he does not know and introduce himself. On more formal occasions or at parties run by older people a guest always waits to be introduced to someone he does not know by the host, hostess or another guest who he already knows. At even a formal dinner an Englishman does not wait for a toast before he has a drink. The English reserve toasts for very formal or very special occasions. In these cases the toast will usuallybe accompanied by a short speech, for example, at a wedding reception or at a party for somebody who is retiring. After a private dinner in someone's house an Englishman will only shake hands with the host and hostess if it is a fairly formal occasion, like a business dinner, and he will usually put his coat on and say goodbye as he leaves the house.Luckily, like Chinese people, the English usually excuse foreign students over matters of etiquette. But even so, perhaps the safest advice for the overseas student, no matter what country he is visiting, is to follow the old proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.31. When an Englishman meets a friend in the street, he may ____________.A. stop to talk to his friendB. just nod and say “hello”C. shake hands with his friendD. just say goodbye32. What will a person do when he attends a party run by older people?A. Go up to a stranger and introduce himself.B. Ask his friend to introduce him to others.C. Give a speech in front of others to introduce himself.D. Wait to be introduced by the host / hostess.33. On which occasion will the English toast?A. A wedding reception.B. A dinner party.C. A speech.D. A meeting.34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Different countries have similar ideas about what good manners are.B. Chinese people seem to be more polite than English people.C. An Englishman will shake hands with the host after a private business dinner.D. The English usually can’t understand foreign students, impolite behaviors.35. Which of the following best explains the proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.A. If you go to Rome, you must do things like the Romans.B. When you go to a foreign country, you should learn something about theirmanners.C. Romans always do the right thing, so you should follow them.D. Manners in Roman are as easy to follow as in other countries. Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:The news of the escape first got around on Sunday’s night. It threw the oldest son into anxiety, almost panic, possibly because he was old enough to know what it meant. The youngest didn’t seem to care: he was too young. Mrs. Birnam—an unimaginative mother, easy-going, busy with family matters—seemed to take the attitude that if danger was involved, it was danger to somebody else besides themselves. Don’s reaction, the middle son, was romantic; what a pity that it had happened forty miles away, and thus the consequent exciting danger or threat would never reach as far as their town of Arcadia. He was twelve at the time.There had been a break at the state prison in Auburn. Six dangerous criminals had shot their way out and were even now –so everybody said – terrorizing the countryside, though no one had seen them since their rush to freedom after a wounded guard, at gun point, had raised the outer gate for their escape. They might equally have vanished off the face of the earth or hidden in somebody’s abandoned barn, too frightened to stir form their hiding places for weeks to come.The news came to the Birnams inevitably (必然) form one of their neighbors over the telephone. There was no radio in those days but Mrs. Kirtle was just as good. By some mysterious gift she always managed to hear things before anybody else and immediately got on the phone or rushed across the back yards, ducking under clotheslines and knocking at kitchen door. “Pauline Revere,” the boys called her, and their mother suppressed (抑制) a smile and scolded them for disrespect.36. How far was the prison from Arcadia?A) Forty miles. B) Six miles.C) Twelve miles. D)The selection doesn’t tell us.37. Mrs. Birnam’s family learned of the news of the escape ________.A) through Mrs. Kirtle B) over the radioC) form the wounded guard D) by some mysterious gift38. The boy’s attitude toward Mrs. Kirtle was one of ________.A) tolerance B) impoliteness C) doubt D) kindness39. The word “panic” (Para. 1, Line 2) most probably means ________.A) achievement B) advance C) fear D) happiness40. Which of the following statements in NOT TRUE?A) The six criminals succeeded in escaping with much violence.B) Mrs. Kirtle always kept herself informed about daily happenings in their neighborhood.C) Mrs. Birnam thought that the news had nothing to do with her family.D) Every member of the Birnams was thrown into a panic by the news.Part III Cloze (20%, 20 minutes)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. You should fill in each blank with a word that best fits into the passage.Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard __41__ the Internet. Now, I'll bet you can't __42__ a single person in your school who hasn't at __43__ heard of it. In __44__, many of us use it __45__ a regular basis and even have access __46__ it from our homes! The "net" in Internet really stands __47__ network. A network is two __48__ more computers connected together so __49__ information can be shared, or sent from one computer to __50__. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information.Part IV Translation (20%, 20 minutes)Read the following sentences carefully and translate the English into Chinese (Sentence 1 and 2) or Chinese into English (Sentence 3, 4 and 5). Your translations should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.51. Don't be in such a rush to get promoted either -- you have a long career life ahead of you to shoulder the heavy burden of being on top.52. While recognizing our achievements, we must be well aware that they still fall short of the expectations of the people and that there are still quite a few difficulties and problems on our way forward.53. 考虑到问题的严重性，在事态进一步恶化之前，必须采取有效的措施。

Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice. Passage OneRows of new school desks equipped with bike pedals (踏板) are allowing students in Mexico to power through their class work while doing some light exercise, burning off calories in a country known for its alarming obesity rates.But for the students at a high school just outside the bustling city of Monterrey, the new bike desks offer benefits beyond exercise.“When we're physically active it also helps keep us focused,” said 13-year-old Reimy Rodriguez, in her first year at Public High School 24. “It's actually incredible.”A third of all Mexicans are obese and as children age, many pack on the pounds. A recent national study showed about 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese, which rises to almost 19% for kids between 5-11 years old.Sanjuanita Garcia, the school's principal, points to the bike desks' post-pandemic benefits, especially for boys more vulnerable to excessive weight gain.The school currently features two classrooms fully decked out with the new desks, but the plan is to gradually add them to all 21 classrooms.Large amounts of excess body weight during early years poses numerous dangers to children’s health, including increased risk of diabetes, high blood pressure, bone and joint problems, and asthma.Most children do not outgrow weight problems acquired in early life, and obesity in adulthood is known to contribute to strokes, heart disease, and dementia.11. What can you learn from the first 3 paragraphs?A. Besides burning off calories, the new desks help to keep students focused.B. All schools in Mexico have been equipped with new bikes.C. The bike desks are designed to keep students focused.D. The bike desks are welcomed by both teachers and students.12. How do you understand “more vulnerable to excessive weight gain” in Paragraph 5?A. easier to gain excessive weightB. sensitive to the fact of gaining weightC. gaining weight voluntarilyD. urgent to gain weight13. Obesity in adulthood may cause the following illness EXCEPT________.A. StrokeB. Low blood pressureC. Heart diseaseD. Dementia14. Which of the following can NOT be learned from the passage?A. Mexico is a country with high obesity rates.B. About 8% of children under 5 were overweight or obese.C. Large amounts of excess body weight during early years pose numerous dangers to children’s health.D. The school referred in the text has equipped bike desks to 21 classrooms.15. The best title for this passage could be “________”.A. A New Step to Lose Weight, A Bigger Achievement to Fight ObesityB. The Significance of Proper DesksC. Bike Desks Help Mexican Students Learn While Burning CaloriesD. Alarming Obesity Rates, How Will Mexicans Solve It?Passage TwoThere are many good reasons to continue to explore space. But in space exploration the “real reasons” - that are the most important - are as follows.First, most of us want to be, both as individuals and as societies, the first or the best in some activity. We want to stand out. This behavior is rooted in our genes. We are today the descendants(后代) of people who survived by outperforming others.A second reason is curiosity. Who among us has not had the desire to know what's over the next hill? What child has not been drawn to explore the unfamiliar places beyond the neighborhood?Finally, we humans have, since the earliest civilizations, built monuments(纪念碑). We want to leave something behind to show the next generation, or the generations after that, what we did with our time here. This is why cathedrals (大教堂), pyramids (金字塔) , art galleries and museums have been built.Cathedral builders would understand what I mean by real reasons. The monuments they built required a far greater percentage of their gross domestic product (国内生产总值) than we will ever put into the space business, but we look back across 600 or 800 years of time, and we are still awed (敬畏的) by what the builders accomplished. Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.The return the cathedral builders made on their investment could not have been summarized in a cost/benefit analysis. They gained societal advantages that were probably even more important than learning how to build walls and roofs. The people who started the cathedrals didn’t live to finish them. The society as a whole had to be dedicated to the completion of those projects.16. What kind of behavior is rooted in our genes according to the passage?A. Making money.B. Finding other lives in space.C. Looking for another suitable planet.D. Surpassing others.17. What does it illustrate that the child is drawn to explore the unfamiliar places?A. Humans are curious.B. Humans want to leave something for next generations.C. Humans want to excel.D. Humans have a constancy of purpose.18. Which of the following can NOT be regarded as a monument according to the passage?A. Art galleries.B. Museums.C. Parks.D. Pyramids.19. What's the meaning of the sentence “Those buildings, therefore, also stand monuments to the builders.”?A. It requires a great percentage of GDP.B. It can stand for hundreds of years.C. It serves as a symbol of power.D. It represents the builders’ accomplishments.20. What can be gained from building monuments or cathedrals?A. Increase in GDP.B. Gains of societal advantage.C. Economic returns.D. More investment in space exploration.Passage ThreeWith buying power rising among young, heritage-minded consumers, domestic cosmetics brands are winning hearts with guochao -a trend that is seeing younger buyers drawn to products with Chinese cultural elements.In one case, brands are embracing solar term or jieqi, a concept based onChina's ancient calendar, incorporating elements of lunar and solar calendars, which divides the year into 24 periods. This type of marketing is used to inject a sense of nature into beauty routines.Grain Rain, a Chinese skincare brand, is inspired by the sixth solar term, guyu, referring to early crops, which starts around April 20. It was accompanied by a spring-inspired marketing campaign represented by actress Zhou Dongyu in April 2022. It uses the solar term's traditional association with picking herbs to reinforce the label's herbal skincare branding.Generation Z - those born from the mid-to-late 1990s and into the 2000s and a major consumer group - is being affected by the country's cultural renaissance and the development of the internet. They are more independent in their choices and have a greater sense of national identity, experts said.With the rise of guochao, and the influence of the expansion of China's manufacturing ability, consumers are showing an increased preference for domestic cosmetics brands, according to a recent report issued by consulting firm Ernst & Young. Although China's high-end cosmetics market has been dominated for a number of years by international brands, the market influence of homegrown brands has been rapidly rising.In China's third-tier and smaller cities, the penetration rate of domestic cosmetics surpasses 90 percent, and the growth rate of lip balm and lipstick sales has been over 60 percent for two consecutive years, according to a report launched by Juhuasuan, the group-buying arm of e-commerce giant Alibaba.21. Which of the following is similar to the word “drawn” in the first paragraph?A. paintedB. attractedC. pulledD. pushed22. How many solar terms are there in China?A. 20B. 22C. 24D. 1223. Which of the following is NOT correct?A. Grain Rain is a domestic cosmetic brand.B. The brand Grain Rain was created in April 2022.C. Zhou Dongyu does not like herbal skincare branding.D. Grain Rain starts around April 20.24. Which of the following statements is true?A. More and more Chinese consumers prefers international brands to domestic brands.B. China’s high-end cosmetics market has been occupied by international brands for years.C. Generation Z are more likely to be influenced by others when choosing cosmetics.D. The market influence of homegrown brands has been steady in China.25. What does the word “surpass” mean in the last paragraph?A. come acrossB. pass byC. go acrossD. exceedPassage FourI have become obsessed (着迷) with the idea that people can live the lives they want instead of the lives they have. I have been examining the disconnect (脱节) between where people say they want to be and where they are. We work toward achieving those things that we want, whether it is better health and fitness, a car, a house or a great relationship. However, too many of us are settling for less than we want, since we have been taught to believe that “making a living” takes precedence over (优先于) life.I work with individuals who find themselves at a career crossroads. Many of them are mid-level, mid-career professionals. They have been working in one typeof job or career for a while, and now that job or career no longer makes them happy. They have a feeling that there must be "something else out there” for them, but they don’t know what it is.My experience is that mid-career professionals are looking for work that has meaning and value. They want to feel that what they do in the course of their work will leave some sort of imprint (印记) on the world.I know a lot of people want to think they don't have a choice. They believe they are victims (受害者) of circumstances beyond their control. They are not. No one is a victim of circumstance unless they choose to be. But you get to choose how you look at your life and your aspirations. I can't tell you what your dream job is or what your dreams might look like. I can tell you that you owe it to yourself to consider that it is possible for you.So, consider: What do you really want in your life? Is it possible to live the life of your dreams? I maintain that it is. Do you have to settle for less than you want or deserve? Do you want to make a life instead of just eking out a living (勉强度日)? You can, but only if you want to. You get to choose.26. Why are so many people settling for less than they want?A. Because hope keeps them going.B. Because there is always a disconnect between where people say they want to be and where they are.C. Because they believe “making a living” takes precedence over life.D. Because they are not struggling hard enough.27.What’s happening to those mid-level, mid-career professionals at career crossroads?A. They stop feeling happy any more.B. They feel “something else out there” for them.C. They know clearly what they are pursuingD. They need to find more challenges.28. What's missing for the mid-career professionals?A. Work that has meaning and value.B. Experience that can benefit the organization.C. Partners that will be appreciated.D. Company that makes people feel validated29. If you are struggling with what you want in your work, you should________.A. look for an advisorB. discuss it with your friendsC. remember you can always chooseD. listen to your heart30. To those who think they don’t have a choice, the author's advice is________.A. that they are victims of circumstancesB. that it's up to them to decide their livesC. that something is just out of controlD. that they should eke out a livingPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section.

For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single bar through the center of the letter that indicates your choice.A multi-institutional team of researchers conducted the first study to evaluate how the duration of nightly sleep early in the semester affects first year college students end-of-semester grade point average (GPA). Using Fitbit sleep trackers,they found that students on 51 sleep 6.5 hours a night, but 52 outcomes accumulate when students received less than six hours of sleep a night. The results are 53 in the Feb. 13 issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.Sleep guidelines 54 teenagers get 8 to 10 hours of sleep every night. Many college students experience irregular and insufficient sleep.David Creswell, the William S. Dietrich II Professor in Psychology and Neuroscience at the Dietrich College of Humanities and Social Sciences, led a team of researchers to 55 the relationship between sleep and GPA. College students often push themselves to achieve.“Animal studies have shown how critical sleep is for learning and memory,” said Creswell. "Here we show how this work translates 56 humans. The less nightly sleep a first-year college student gets at the beginning of the school term predicts lower GPA at the end of the term. Lack of sleep may be hurting students’ ability to learn in their college classrooms.”The study evaluated more than 600 first-year students across five studies at three universities. The students wore wrist Fitbit devices to monitor and record their sleep 57 . The researchers found that students in the study sleep on average 6.5 hours a night.More surprisingly, the researchers found that students who receive 58 six hours of sleep experienced a pronounced decline in academic performance.59 , each hour of sleep lost corresponded to a 0.07 decrease in end-of-term GPA.“Once you start dipp ing below six hours, you are starting to accumulate massive sleep debt that can impair a student’s health and study habits, compromising the whole system,” said Creswell. “Most surprising to me was that no matter 60 we did to make the effect go away, i t persisted.”51.

I took up learning a foreign language well into my 30s, which has made me rediscover the joys and challenges of learning. I have studied the language for a few years now, but I have never studied using a textbook or by doing homework and exercises. I know this is the tried and tested method for the vast majority of language learners, but it is just not an appropriate way for me. I learn the language by chatting and listening, making mistakes, carrying on, making the same mistakes again, and at some point, subconsciously the mistake remedies itself somehow. This way of learning has allowed me to express myself with far more clarity, ingenuity, and personalization than any textbook could ever have.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 100 words on the topic “The Problems I Face on My Learning?” You could base your composition on the Chinese outline given below.你在学习中都遇到了什么样的困难？为了解决这些困难，你打算怎么办？英语试卷（答案）Part I Dialogue Communication (10 minutes, 10 points)1-5: BCDBA 6-10: CDAABPart II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes, 40 points)11-15: AABDC 16-20: DACDB21-25: BCCBD 26-30: CBACBPart III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)31-35: ADCBD36-40: BBDDA41-45: ACADA46-50: ACBBCPart IV Cloze Test (10 minutes, 10 points)51-55: ABBCB 56-60: DAACBPart IV Translation (25 minutes, 15 points)学习是我们一生都在做的事情。

RTCA,an organization which advises the aviation(航空)industry,has recommended that all airlines ban such devices from being used during“critical”stages of flight,particularly takeoff and landing.Some experts have gone further,calling for a total ban during all flights.Currently,rules on using these devices are left up to individual airlines.And although some airlines prohibit passengers from using such equipment during takeoff and landing,most are reluctant to enforce a total ban,given that many passengers want to work during flights.The difficulty is predicting how electromagnetic fields might affect an aircraft’s computers. Experts know that portable devices emit radiation which affects those wavelengths which aircraft use for navigation and communication.But,because they have not been able to reproduce these effects in a laboratory,they have no way of knowing whether the interference might be dangerous or not.The fact that aircraft may be vulnerable to interference raises the risk that terrorists may use radio system in order to damage navigation equipment.As worrying,though,is the passenger who can’t hear the instructions to turn off his radio because the music’s too loud.11.The passage is mainly about_______.A.a new regulation for all airlinesB.the defects of electronic devicesC.a possible cause of aircraft crashesD.effective safety measures for air flight12.What is said about the over100aircraft incidents in the past15years?A.They may have been caused by the damage to the radio systems.B.They may have taken place during takeoff and landing.C.They were proved to have been caused by the passengers’portable computers.D.They were suspected to have resulted from electromagnetic interference.13.Few airlines want to impose a total ban on their passengers using electronic devices because _______.A.they don’t believe there is such a danger as radio interferenceB.the harmful effect of electromagnetic interference is yet to be provedC.most passengers refuse to take a plane which bans the use of radio and cassette playersD.they have other effective safety measures to fall back on14.Why is it difficult to predict the possible effects of electromagnetic fields on an airplane’s computers?A.Because it is extremely dangerous to conduct such research on an airplane.B.Because it remains a mystery what wavelengths are liable to be interfered with.C.Because research scientists have not been able to produce the same effects in labs.D.Because experts lack adequate equipment to do such research.15.It can be inferred from the passage that the author_______.A.is in favor of prohibiting passengers’use of electronic devices completelyB.has overestimated the danger of electromagnetic interferenceC.hasn’t formed his own opinion on this problemD.regards it as unreasonable to exercise a total ban during flightPassage2Even plants can run a fever,especially when they’re under attack by insects or disease.But unlike humans,plants can have their temperature taken from3,000feet away straight up.A decade ago,adapting the infrared(红外线)scanning technology developed for military purposes and other satellites,physicist Stephen Paley came up with a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine which ones are under stress.The goal was to let farmers precisely target pesticide spraying rather than rain poison on a whole field,which invariably includes plants that don’t have pest problems.Even better,Paley’s Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problems before they became visible to the eye.Mounted on a plane flown at3,000feet at night, an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops.The data were transformed into a color-coded map showing where plants were running“fevers”.Farmers could then spot-spray, using50to70percent less pesticide than they otherwise would.The bad news is that Paley’s company closed down in1984,after only three years.Farmers resisted the new technology and long-term backers were hard to find.But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce,and refinements in infrared scanning,Paley hopes to get back into operation.Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works.“This technique can be used on75percent of agricultural land in the United States,”says George,expert of Texas A&M.Ray Jackson,who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture,thinks remote infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade.But only if Paley finds the financial backing which he failed to obtain10years ago.16.Plants will emit an increased amount of heat when they are_______.A.sprayed with pesticidesB.facing an infrared scannerC.in poor physical conditionD.exposed to excessive sun rays17.In order to apply pesticide spraying precisely,we can use infrared scanning to_______.A.estimate the damage to the cropsB.measure the size of the affected areaC.draw a color-coded mapD.locate the problem area18.Farmers can save a considerable amount of pesticide by_______.A.resorting to spot-sprayingB.consulting infrared scanning expertsC.transforming poisoned rainD.detecting crop problems at an early stage19.The application of infrared scanning technology to agriculture met with some difficulties,such as_______.A.the lack of official supportB.its high costC.the lack of financial backingD.its failure to help increase production20.Infrared scanning technology may be brought back into operation because of_______.A.the desire of farmers to improve the quality of their produceB.growing concern about the excessive use of pesticides on cropsC.the forceful promotion by the Department of AgricultureD.full support from agricultural expertsPassage3The human brain contains10thousand million cells and each of these may have a thousand connections.Such enormous numbers used to discourage us and cause us to dismiss the possibility of making a machine with humanlike ability,but now that we have grown used to moving forward at such a pace,we can be less sure.Quite soon,in only10or20years perhaps,we will be able to assemble a machine as complex as the human brain,and if we can we will.It may then take us a long time to render it intelligent by loading in the right software or by altering the architecture but that too will happen.I think it certain that in decades,not centuries,machines of silicon(硅)will arise first to rival and then exceed their human ancestors.Once they exceed us,they will be capable of their own design.In a real sense they will be able to reproduce themselves.Silicon will have ended carbon’s long control.And we will no longer be able to claim ourselves to be the finest intelligence in the known universe.As the intelligence of robots increases to match that of humans and as their cost declines through economies of scale,we may use them to expand our frontiers,first on earth through their ability to withstand environments,harmful to ourselves.Thus,deserts may bloom and the ocean beds be mined.Further ahead,by a combination of the great wealth this new age will bring and the technology it will provide,the construction of a vast,man-created world in space,home to thousands or millions of people,will be within our power.21.In what way can we make a machine intelligent?A.By making it work in such environments as deserts,oceans or space.B.By working hard for10or20years.C.By either properly programming it or changing its structure.D.By reproducing it.22.What does the writer think about machines with human-like ability?A.He believes they will be useful to human beings.B.He believes that they will control us in the future.C.He is not quite sure in what way they may influence us.D.He doesn’t consider the construction of such machines possible.23.The word carbon(para.2)stands for“_______”.A.intelligent robotsB.a chemical elementC.an organic substanceD.human beings24.A robot can be used to expand our frontiers when_______.A.its intelligence and cost are beyond questionB.it is able to bear the rough environmentC.it is made as complex as the human brainD.its architecture is different from that of the present ones25.It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.after the installation of a great number of cells and connections,robots will be capable of self-reproductionB.with the rapid development of technology,people have come to realize the possibility of making a machine with human-like abilityC.once we make a machine as complex as the human brain,it will possess intelligenceD.robots will have control of the vast,man-made world in spacePassage4Cancer is feared by everyone.And this fear is reaching epidemic proportions.Not the disease itself－there is no such thing as a cancer epidemic.Except for lung cancer,mostly caused by cigarette smoking,the incidence rates are leveling off,and in the case of some kinds of cancer are decreasing.But the fear of cancer is catching,and the country stands at risk of an anxiety.The earth itself is coming to seem like a huge carcinogen(致癌物).The ordinary,more or less scientific statement that something between80and90percent of all cancers are due to things in the environment is taken to mean that none of us will be safe until the whole environment is “cleaned up.”This is not at all the meaning.The80-percent calculation is based on the unthinkable differences in the incidence of cancer in various societies around the world－for example,the high proportion of liver cancer in Africa and the Far East,stomach cancer in Japan,breast cancer in Western Europe and North America, and the relatively low figures for breast cancer in Japan and parts of Africa and for liver cancer inAmerica.These data indicate there may be special and specific environmental influences,largely based on personal life-style,that determine the incidence of various forms of cancer in different communities－but that is all the data suggest.The overall incidence of cancer,counting up all the cases,is probable roughly the same everywhere.26.Which of the following is closest to meaning to the phrase“leveling off”?A.Became very popular.B.Reached its lowest level in popularity.C.Stopped being popular.D.Stopped increasing its popularity.27.According to the passage,the incidence of cancer is generally believed_______.A.to be based on inactive life styleB.to be due to anxietyC.to result from environmental influencesD.to be caused by heavy smoking28.It can be inferred from the passage that the writer’s opinion about the relationship between cancer and environment is_______.A.positiveB.negativeC.neutralD.approving29.According to the passage,the writer seems to feel that_______.A.cancer risk is on the riseB.the whole earth resembles a huge carcinogenC.the risk of catching cancer is not so great as most people conceiveD.cancer can be cured sooner or later30.Which of the following would be the best TITLE for the passage?A.Cancer and EnvironmentB.The Fear Caused by CancersC.Data on Cancer IncidenceD.Cancer and its InvestigationPart III Vocabulary and Structure(20minutes,20points)Directions:There are20incomplete sentences in this section.For each

This shift has been driven by several factors, including advancements in technology, changing work cultures, and the desire for a better work-life balance.Technology has played a crucial role in enabling remote work. With the advent of high-speed internet, video conferencing tools, and cloud-based applications, employees can now collaborate effectively with their colleagues, regardless of their physical location. This has made iteasier for companies to hire talent from anywhere in the world and for employees to work from anywhere they choose.The changing work culture has also contributed to the rise of remote work. Companies are increasingly recognizing the value of flexible work arrangements and are offering more opportunities for employees to work from home. This shift is driven by the growing demand for a better work-life balance and the desire to attract and retain top talent.Remote work has several benefits for both employees and employers. For employees, it offers greater flexibility and the ability to create a personalized work environment. It can also lead to increased productivity, as employees are able to work in a setting that is conducive to their individual needs. For employers, remote work can reduce overhead costs, increase employee satisfaction, and improve retention rates.However, remote work also comes with its own set of challenges. Communication can be more difficult when working from home, and there is a risk of feeling isolated. Additionally, employees may struggle to maintain a healthy work-life balance if they are not careful.Despite these challenges, the trend towards remote work is likely to continue.

The park was filled with people enjoying the beautiful weather. There were children playing, couples strolling, and groups of friends gathered around a picnic table.As I walked along the path, I noticed a young man sitting on a bench, looking very sad. I approached him and asked if he was okay. He looked up and said, "I'm fine, but I just feel really lonely."I sat down next to him and asked him to tell me what was going on. He explained that he had moved to the city a few months ago and had not yet made any friends. He felt isolated and was struggling to adjust to his new environment.I listened carefully and offered him some advice. I told him that it was important to be proactive and reach out to people. I suggested that he join a local community group or take a class to meet new people. I also encouraged him to be open and friendly, as making friends is often about taking the first step.The young man seemed to feel better after our conversation. He thanked me for listening and for the advice. As I continued my walk, I couldn't help but feel happy that I had been able to help someone in need.This experience reminded me of the importance of being kind and compassionate towards others.

It was originally built as a hunting chateau by King Louis VIII in 1624. In 1669, King Louis XIV began searching for a grand site where he could conduct the affairs of France and control the government. He settled on the hunting palace and expanded it into the world’s largest pa lace. In addition, the King hoped to build a governmental center apart from Paris.The palace took 36,000 workers fifty years to build. The palace is spread out over 280 acres and can house 20,000 people! The palace features over 700 rooms and 67 staircases. There are dozens of unique rooms, features, gardens, and halls. One of the most renowned rooms of the Palace of Versailles is the Hall of Mirrors. Recently restored, the Hall of Mirrors is the centerpiece of the dazzling building.Originally added to the palace in 1684, the Hall of Mirrors was built to be a dazzling display of the power and wealth of the French Monarchy. The hall, which measures 73 meters in length features 357 gold-coated stucco mirrors, ornate paintings, crystal chandeliers, marble fixtures, a parquet floor, and ceilings with colorful murals painted by artist Charles Le Brun. The Hall of Mirrors has also played a prominent role in history. Both the proclamation of the German Empire in 1871 after the Franco-Prussian War and the signing of the Treaty of Versailles that formally ended World War One were signed here.21.

Which of the following could be an appropriate title for this passage?A. Louis XIV and the Palace of Versailles.B. The ceilings of the Hall of Mirrors.C. The Amazing Palace of Versailles.D. A History of France.Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage :“It hurts me more than you,” and “This is for your own good.” These are the statements my mother used to make years ago when I had to learn Latin, cleanmy room, stay home and do homework.That was before we entered the permissive period in education in which we decided it was all right not to push our children to achieve their best in school. The schools and the educators made it easy on us. They taught that it was all right to be parents who take a let-alone policy. We stopped making our children do homework. We gave them calculators, turned on the television, left the teaching to the teachers and went on vacation.Now teachers, faced with children who have been developing at their own pace for the past 15 years, are realizing we’ve made a terrible mistake. One such teacher is Sharon Klompus who says of her students of them, she believes. Television, says Klompus, contributes to children’s passivity. “We’re not training kids to work any more,” says Klompus. “We’re talking about a generation of kids who’ve never been hurt or hungry. They have learned somebody will always do it for them. Instead of saying ‘go look it up’, you tell them the answer. It takes greater energy to say no to a kid.”Yes, it does. It takes energy and it takes work. It’s time for parents to end their vacation and come back to work. It’s time to take the car away, to turn the TV off, to tell them it hurts you more than them but i t’s for their own good. It’s time to start telling them no again.26. Children are becoming more inactive in study because ________.A) they watch TV too oftenB) they have done too much homeworkC) they have to fulfill too many dutiesD) teachers are too strict with them27. To such children as described in the passage ________.A) it is easier to say no than to say yesB) neither is easy – to say yes or to say noC) it is easier to say yes than to say noD) neither is difficult -- to say yes or say no28. We learn from the passage that the author’s mother used to lay emphasis on ________.A) learning Latin B) natural developmentC) discipline D) education at school29. By “permissive period in education” the author means a time ________.A) when children are allowed to do what they wish toB) when everything can be taught at schoolC) when every child can be educatedD) when children are permitted to receive education30. The main idea of the passage is that ________.A) parents should leave their children aloneB) kids should have more activities at schoolC) it’s time to be stricter with our kidsD) parents should always set a good example to their kidsQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:Manners are very important in every country, but the trouble is that different countries have different ideas about what counts as polite behavior. What is good manners in one country may not be appropriate behavior in another. Chinese people may be shocked at what counts as good manners in England.When an Englishman passes a friend in the street he does not always stop to talk. He may just nod, say "hello" and pass on. If two friends do stop to talk, they do not shake hands. It is only at parties for young people (students, for instance) that a person could go up to someone he does not know and introduce himself. On more formal occasions or at parties run by older people a guest always waits to be introduced to someone he does not know by the host, hostess or another guest who he already knows. At even a formal dinner an Englishman does not wait for a toast before he has a drink. The English reserve toasts for very formal or very special occasions. In these cases the toast will usually be accompanied by a short speech, for example, at a wedding reception or at a party for somebody who is retiring. After a private dinner in someone's house an Englishman will only shake hands with the host and hostess if it is a fairly formal occasion, like a business dinner, and he will usually put his coat on and say goodbye as he leaves the house.Luckily, like Chinese people, the English usually excuse foreign students over matters of etiquette. But even so, perhaps the safest advice for the overseasstudent, no matter what country he is visiting, is to follow the old proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.31. When an Englishman meets a friend in the street, he may ____________.A. stop to talk to his friendB. just nod and say “hello”C. shake hands with his friendD. just say goodbye32. What will a person do when he attends a party run by older people?A. Go up to a stranger and introduce himself.B. Ask his friend to introduce him to others.C. Give a speech in front of others to introduce himself.D. Wait to be introduced by the host / hostess.33. On which occasion will the English toast?A. A wedding reception.B. A dinner party.C. A speech.D. A meeting.34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Different countries have similar ideas about what good manners are.B. Chinese people seem to be more polite than English people.C. An Englishman will shake hands with the host after a private business dinner.D. The English usually can’t understand foreign students, impolite behaviors.35. Which of the following best explains the proverb: when in Rome, do as the Romans do.A. If you go to Rome, you must do things like the Romans.B. When you go to a foreign country, you should learn something about their manners.C. Romans always do the right thing, so you should follow them.D. Manners in Roman are as easy to follow as in other countries. Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:The news of the escape first got around on Sunday’s night. It threw the oldest son into anxiety, almost panic, possibly because he was old enough to know what it meant. The youngest didn’t seem to care: he was too young. Mrs. Birnam—an unimaginative mother, easy-going, busy with family matters—seemed to take theattitude that if danger was involved, it was danger to somebody else besides themselves. Don’s reaction, the middle son, was romantic; what a pity that it had happened forty miles away, and thus the consequent exciting danger or threat would never reach as far as their town of Arcadia. He was twelve at the time. There had been a break at the state prison in Auburn. Six dangerous criminals had shot their way out and were even now –so everybody said – terrorizing the countryside, though no one had seen them since their rush to freedom after a wounded guard, at gun point, had raised the outer gate for their escape. They might equally have vanished off the face of the earth or hidden in somebody’s abandoned barn, too frightened to stir form their hiding places for weeks to come. The news came to the Birnams inevitably (必然) form one of their neighbors over the telephone. There was no radio in those days but Mrs. Kirtle was just as good. By some mysterious gift she always managed to hear things before anybody else and immediately got on the phone or rushed across the back yards, ducking under clotheslines and knocking at kitchen door. “Pauline Revere,” the boys called her, and their mother suppressed (抑制) a smile and scolded them for disrespect.36. How far was the prison from Arcadia?A) Forty miles. B) Six miles.C) Twelve miles. D)The selection doesn’t tell us.37. Mrs. Birnam’s family learned of the news of the escape ________.A) through Mrs. Kirtle B) over the radioC) form the wounded guard D) by some mysterious gift38. The boy’s attitude toward Mrs. Kirtle was one of ________.A) tolerance B) impoliteness C) doubt D) kindness39. The word “panic” (Para. 1, Line 2) most probably means ________.A) achievement B) advance C) fear D) happiness40. Which of the following statements in NOT TRUE?A) The six criminals succeeded in escaping with much violence.B) Mrs. Kirtle always kept herself informed about daily happenings in their neighborhood.C) Mrs. Birnam thought that the news had nothing to do with her family.D) Every member of the Birnams was thrown into a panic by the news.Part III Cloze (20%, 20 minutes)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. You should fill in each blank with a word that best fits into the passage.Twenty years ago, kids in school had never even heard __41__ the Internet. Now, I'll bet you can't __42__ a single person in your school who hasn't at __43__ heard of it. In __44__, many of us use it __45__ a regular basis and even have access __46__ it from our homes! The "net" in Internet really stands __47__ network.A network is two __48__ more computers connected together so __49__ information can be shared, or sent from one computer to __50__. The Internet is a vast resource for all types of information.Part IV Translation (20%, 20 minutes)Read the following sentences carefully and translate the English into Chinese (Sentence 1 and 2) or Chinese into English (Sentence 3, 4 and 5). Your translations should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.51. Don't be in such a rush to get promoted either -- you have a long career life ahead of you to shoulder the heavy burden of being on top.52. While recognizing our achievements, we must be well aware that they still fall short of the expectations of the people and that there are still quite a few difficulties and problems on our way forward.53. 考虑到问题的严重性，在事态进一步恶化之前，必须采取有效的措施。
山东成人本科学位英语考试真题2024
山东成人本科学位英语考试真题2024全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1The Shandong Adult Undergraduate Degree English Exam 2024Wow, can you believe it's already 2024? Time sure flies by quickly! This year my big sister is taking a really important English test called the Shandong Adult Undergraduate Degree English Exam. It's a huge deal for her because she's been studying so hard to get her bachelor's degree as an adult student.She's been taking night classes and weekend courses for years now while also working full-time at her job during the day.I don't know how she finds the time and energy for everything! I can barely stay awake for my own homework after getting home from school. But my sister is super dedicated and focused on getting her degree no matter what it takes.From what I understand, the Shandong Adult Undergraduate Degree English Exam tests how well you know the English language. It covers reading, writing, listening, andspeaking - all the key skills you need to really master English. My sister has been drilling vocabulary words, reading English novels, listening to podcasts, and practicing conversations for months now.I overheard her on the phone with one of her classmates talking about how there are different sections on the exam. One part tests how well you can understand English passages by asking comprehension questions about the main ideas and details. Another section has you write an essay or article on a certain topic to show your English writing abilities.There's also a listening portion where you hear recordings of conversations or lectures and have to answer questions about what was said. My sister said the speaking section is one of the hardest parts - you have to respond to questions and prompts by speaking out loud in clear, fluent English. No pressure at all, right?I tried practicing some basic English conversations with her and I don't know how she manages to speak so naturally and fluidly. I always get tongue-tied or mixed up after a few sentences. She's basically fluent at this point after studying English for so long.I'm really proud of my sister for persevering and sticking with her studies for all these years. She had to put her bachelor's degree on hold for a while after having me and my little brother. But now that we're older, she's been able to go back to school while still taking care of us and working her job. Talk about superwoman!The exam is supposed to be really hard since it tests your English at a true university level. My sister has told me plenty of people fail it the first time and have to retake it. But she is determined to pass on her first try this year. She's been doing practice tests, getting tutoring, anything she can to prepare.Part of me envies how focused and driven she is. But another part of me is exhausted just watching her go through all this studying and prep work! I'll be really relieved for her when this exam is finally over. Maybe then she can relax and take a break...yeah, right! Knowing my sister, she'll probably just start studying for the next challenge.I'm crossing my fingers that all her hard work pays off and she aces the Shandong Adult Undergraduate Degree English Exam. She's sacrificed so much family time and sleep to get ready. I think she deserves to pass with flying colors. Thenhopefully she'll be one big step closer to achieving her dream of getting that bachelor's degree!I probably sound a little biased because she's my awesome big sis. But I have witnessed firsthand how intensely she has prepped and how skilled she has become at English. I may only be in elementary school, but I can already tell my sister has the English abilities of someone who completed university. She just needs that certificate to prove it.No matter what happens though, I'm proud of her for trying her absolute best and being an inspiration. Shoot, now I'm feeling motivated to start studying hard for my future too! Thanks a lot, sis. Haha just kidding, I'll always look up to her drive and determination. I know the Shandong exam will just be another monumental achievement she can add to her list.So let's all send her positive vibes and spirit for test day 2024! You've got this, sis. Your English skills are going to shine bright like a diamond. Knock that exam out of the park and walk away a champion!篇2The Big Grown-Up Test for CollegeWow, you guys won't believe what my older cousin Jia had to do last week! She's already finished high school, but she still had to take this massive test to try and get into a university. It's called the Shandong Adult Undergraduate English Exam and it sounded super duper hard.Jia has been studying English ever since she was a little kid, just like me. But this test had reading, writing, listening, speaking - all kinds of tough English stuff crammed into one giant exam! I can't even imagine having to write a whole essay in English. That would take me forever with all the weird grammar rules.The reading section had all these long, boring passages about science, history, culture and other snooze-fest topics. Jia said she had to read them carefully and then answer detailed questions proving she understood everything. As if reading wasn't already hard enough! My brain would have melted after the first few paragraphs.Then there was the listening part where they played recordings of conversations, lectures, and who knows what else. Jia had to listen super closely and answer questions, all while trying not to zone out. I've seen those kinds of recordings before and the people talk so fast! How is anyone supposed to catch everything they say?But as difficult as the reading and listening sections were, Jia said the writing section might have been the worst. She had to write a whole essay in perfect English about some philosophical topic I can't even pronounce. Having to organize all her thoughts into clear paragraphs with topic sentences and supporting details and conclusions? No thank you!And if that weren't enough, Jia also had to pass a speaking section where she had to have an actual conversation in English with a test grader. She had to describe pictures, answer questions, and explain her opinions, all without making any mistakes. Just thinking about it makes me want to run and hide!Jia studied so hard for months working practice tests and drilling vocabulary. She said the exam lasted almost an entire day and she came out exhausted. Even though she's much older than me, I still felt bad that she had to go through something so difficult and stressful.I really hope Jia passed and gets to go to her dream school! Part of me is proud of her for pushing herself and working so hard. But another part thinks perhaps I shouldn't learn English after all so I'll never have to take a crazy difficult test like that. For now, I'm sticking to ABC's and simple words like "cat" and "ball." Maybe I'll reconsider once I'm a grown-up...in about 20 years!篇3The Super Awesome Shandong Grown-Up English TestHey guys! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 8 years old. I go to Sunshine Elementary School in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong Province. Today I want to tell you all about the super cool Shandong Adult Undergraduate English Examination that happened in 2024!My mom took this test because she's been going to night school to get her bachelor's degree. She studied sooooo hard for months, reading big fat English books and doing practice tests. I tried to help her practice speaking English, but she said my Shandong accent was too strong and I used way too much Shandonghua!The test happened on a Saturday in June 2024. My dad took me and my little sister to the exam site at Shandong University to cheer mom on. There were like a bajillion grown-ups there, all looking very nervous. The test was split into two parts - listening, reading and writing in the morning, then speaking in the afternoon.For the first part, my mom said they had to listen to recordings and answer multiple choice questions testing theirlistening skills. Then they had long passages to read about topics like science, culture, and current events. They had to answer comprehension questions and summarize the main ideas. The writing section required them to write essays, reports, and other texts displaying their English writing abilities. Whew, that's a lot of work!After a lunchbreak, they came back for the speaking test. My mom and the other test takers had to answer questions from proctors and have conversations demonstrating their oral English communication skills. They also had to give presentations on random topics they picked out of a box. Can you imagine having to give a speech in English about... I dunno... the history of paper clips? So scary!While we waited for mom, my sister and I played I-Spy and counted how many people were chewing on their pencils from nerves (237!). Mom finally came out after what felt like a million years. She looked exhausted but also relieved that the epic test was finally over.A couple months later, the results came out online. My mom got a really high score! She was jumping up and down cheering. With her good grade, she'll be able to graduate from university next year. Then maybe I can hire her as my personal English tutorand she can teach me. I'll be like, "Ok mom, today's lesson is about... video games. In English please!"Isn't the Shandong adult English exam just incredible? I'm sure it was a huge challenge, but it's so impressive that so many grown-ups are going back to get university degrees. They must be super dedicated students. I bet the test writers had to work really hard to make that massive exam too!When I grow up, I'll get to take it myself if I want a bachelor's degree. Maybe by then, they'll let you take it in a video game format. That would be awesome! Imagine having to resolve an English dialogue conflict to stop aliens from invading. "Excuse me Mr. Alien, I don't think you're being very polite. Please leave our planet immediately." Zap zap!Anyways, that's all I've got to share about the 2024 Shandong adult English exam. It was an amazing achievement for so many people across the province. Thanks for reading, and I'll catch you guys next time! Zàijiàn!篇4The Big Adult English TestWow, my big sister is going to take the Shandong Adult Undergraduate English Proficiency Test next month! She's been studying really hard for it. I asked her what it was all about and she said it's a big important test that adult students have to pass to get their bachelor's degrees if they didn't go to university right after high school. She has to do lots of reading, writing, listening, and speaking in English to get a good score.My sister has been taking English classes at night and on weekends for the past couple years while also working during the day. I think it's so cool that even though she's an adult, she's still going to school and trying to get her university degree! When I'm older I definitely want to go to university too and study hard like her.She showed me some practice test materials and they looked really difficult, way harder than the English tests I take at my elementary school. There were long reading passages about science and history topics that looked very confusing and had tons of big vocabulary words I didn't know. The listening sections had recordings of lectures and conversations using all sorts of idioms and slang expressions. I could barely follow along!For the writing section, she has to write different kinds of essays and articles demonstrating she can organize her ideaslogically, use correct grammar, and include precise details and examples. One writing prompt asked her to describe the advantages and disadvantages of working from home versus going into an office. Another had her propose a solution to plastic pollution in the oceans. Those sound like really challenging topics to write a whole essay about in English!Then there's the speaking portion, which seems just as nerve-wracking to me. My sister has to give presentations and answer questions from test graders about hypothetical situations. Like what would she do if she had to negotiate a business contract with potential clients? Or how would she respond if she encountered discrimination at work? She has to speak clearly and coherently for several minutes without stuttering or getting stuck. I'm good at English compared to my classmates, but I don't think I could smoothly give analytical speeches like that yet, even in Chinese!I listened to my sister practice some speaking exercises and she sounded so professional and grown-up, clearly explaining her viewpoints and backing them up with logical reasoning. I was really impressed! I could tell the speaking section tests her ability to think critically and articulate sophisticated ideas, not just basic conversational skills.My sister has been working so diligently to prepare for every part of this huge test. She makes flashcards to master academic vocabulary words, does timed practice reading exercises, transcribes lectures to improve her listening, and outlines essays following all the proper formats and techniques. She'll spend hours on the weekends doing practice tests under realistictest-day conditions.On top of the challenging test content itself, she also has to carefully manage her time, effort and emotions for the long grueling exam day. The reading section alone is gonna take almost three hours! I can't even imagine having to concentrate that intensely on reading, writing, listening and speaking in English for over six hours straight. Just thinking about it makes me tired!I really hope my sister does superbly on the test and achieves her dream of finally getting that bachelor's degree. She has put in so much hard work while juggling her job, family responsibilities, and being a student all over again. I'm rooting for her all the way!If I ever have to take a high-stakes standardized test like this in the future, I'll be much better prepared after seeing my sister's experience. For now as a kid, I'll just keep practicing my Englishvocabulary and skills bit by bit every day. Tests are always challenging, but persistence and positivity can help overcome any obstacle. Just look at my amazing big sis!I'm sure my big sister will pass her big adult English test with flying colors. She's the most dedicated, hardworking person I know. I want to grow up to be just like her: intellectually curious, continually learning, professional yet humble, and committed to self-improvement. I'll make sure to give her a huge high-five and tell her "Awesome job!" when she aces that test next month. Go sis go!篇5The Big Grown-Up English TestHi there! My name is Lily and I'm 8 years old. I go to Sunshine Elementary School in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong Province in China. My big sister Mei is 22 years old and she just took a really important English test called the Shandong Adult Undergraduate English Exam. It's a huge deal for grown-ups who want to go to university as an adult student. Mei studied super hard for months to get ready!The exam happened in July 2024. Mei said there were two main parts - a listening comprehension section and a readingcomprehension section. For the listening part, she had to listen to recordings of people speaking English and answer multiple choice questions about what they said. She practiced listening to English podcasts and videos a ton to get her ears ready. For the reading part, she had to read passages in English and also answer multiple choice questions testing if she understood the main ideas and details. Mei read so many English books, newspapers, and magazines to practice!I asked Mei what some of the passages on the test were about and she said they covered all kinds of topics like science, technology, culture, current events, and more. She had to understand vocabulary from many different subject areas. I looked at one of her practice tests and got confused by words like "pragmatic", "disseminate", and "eschew"! Those are pretty big vocabulary words for an 8-year-old. No wonder Mei had to study so much!In addition to the listening and reading sections, Mei also had to write a timed essay in English on the test day. She showed me some of the potential essay prompts she practiced with, and they were super thought-provoking! One practice prompt asked her to discuss the role of artificial intelligence in education. Another one wanted her opinion on whether social media doesmore harm than good. There were prompts about environmental protection, cultural traditions, and policies related to population growth too. Mei had to write a clear, well-organized essay with good grammar and vocabulary in just 30 minutes! I can't imagine having to write that much in English at my age.While the test seemed really hard, Mei was very determined. She took lots of practice tests from previous years to get familiar with the format and types of questions. She attended an English cram school on weekends where teachers taught all the strategies for success. And of course, she studied English vocabulary, grammar, and reading/listening skills every single night after work. I'm so impressed by her commitment!A few weeks after the big test day, Mei finally got her score report in the mail. She passed We had a huge family celebration with her favorite dumplings, noodles, and braised chicken. Mei was overjoyed because getting a passing score on this exam means she can apply to earn an undergraduate degree through Shandong's adult education program. Her dream is to eventually become an English teacher, and this was an important first step.I'm super proud of my hard-working sister Mei. Even though I'm just a kid, I realize how high the stakes were for this exam. Ittook her months of intense preparation across all English skill areas. But she persevered through all the challenges and long study sessions. Seeing her work so hard and accomplish this major goal is really inspiring for me. Who knows, maybe I'll be tackling a big English exam like this myself one day when I'm an adult! For now, I'll just keep practicing my English skills and hopefully live up to the excellent example Mei set. I love my big sis!篇6The Big Grown-Up English TestHi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm 8 years old. I'm in 3rd grade at Sunshine Elementary School in Jinan, the capital city of Shandong Province. I love learning English and I'm pretty good at it. My English teacher Mrs. Wang is super nice and makes our classes really fun.A couple weeks ago, my dad told me he has to take a huge English test called the Shandong English Proficiency Test for Adult Undergraduates. It's for grown-ups who are trying to get their bachelor's degrees at university, but they have to pass this big important test first to prove their English is good enough. My dad didn't go to university right after high school because hehad to start working, but now that I'm a little older he's trying to finally get his degree.I got really excited when he told me about the test because I love English and I thought it would be fun to pretend I was taking the test too! I made my dad promise to show me all the practice materials so I could get ready. He laughed and said "Okay Lily, if you really want to!" I could tell he thought it was a silly idea, but he still let me look at the stuff.The first thing I saw was that the test has four sections - Listening, Reading, Writing, and Translation. Those all sound super hard for grown-ups! I'm not so good at writing longsentences in English yet, and I've never tried to translate anything before. But listening and reading I can definitely do.For the listening section, you have to listen to recordings and answer questions about what you heard. There are conversations between two people, classroom lectures, radio broadcasts, and all sorts of other audio clips. Some of the questions ask you to get the general idea, while others ask about specific details. My listening skills aren't too bad since Mrs. Wang makes us practice that a lot.The reading section looks really long and difficult though. You have to read passages from textbooks, newspapers,magazines and websites. Then you have to answer questions testing if you understood the main points, the author's purpose, the meanings of vocabulary words, and making inferences. Some of the passages looked soooooo boring to me, like one about economic policies and another about engineering design processes. How could anyone possibly stay awake reading those?! The passages about travel and anthropology seemed a little more interesting at least.For the writing section, you have to write one short composition of about 200 words. The prompts are asking you to state an opinion, describe an experience, or explain the causes or effects of something. You're supposed to organize your ideas in paragraphs and use proper grammar, vocabulary and transition words. 200 whole words?? That's like a million words for a kid! I can barely write 50 words without making tons of silly mistakes. Grown-ups must have awesome writing skills for this part.Then the last section is translation, which seems crazy hard to me. You have to translate separate sentences from English into Chinese, and also a longer passage from Chinese into English. I'm confused how anyone can possibly memorize enough vocabulary and grammar rules to get that right. I definitely couldn't handle that yet!This test lasts for a whopping 3 hours and 15 minutes in total! Just thinking about having to concentrate that long on something so difficult makes my head spin. I have no clue how my dad and all the other grown-up test takers will be able to make it through.So after looking over all the materials, I realized this test is waaaaaaay too advanced for a little kid like me to actually try taking it. But I'm still excited to cheer my dad on and see how well he does! I'll make him a good luck card with English words I know like "You can do it!" and "Fighting!" I know English is such an important skill these days, so I'm really proud of my dad for working so hard to improve his abilities.I'm going to keep practicing English every day by reading stories, watching videos, and listening to songs. Then by the time I'm all grown up, tests like this will be easy peasy for me! Who knows, maybe I'll become an English teacher someday just like my favorite teacher Mrs. Wang. English is so much fun and I want to help other kids learn to love it as much as I do.Okay, that's all for my long story about the big grown-up English test. Let me know if you have any other questions! I'll do my best to explain it in easy words a kid can understand. Thanks for reading, goodbye!。
