For each of them there are four choices markedA, B, C and D. Read each passage carefully and decideon the best answer.Passage OnePeoplein the mass advertising business and other peoplewho study America n society have been very interes ted in the questio n: What does the America n consume r like? Max Lerner, a well-known scholar who has studied America n society, has said that America n consumers are particu larlyfond of three things:comfort, cleanli ness, and novelty.Lernerbelieve s that the America n love of comfort perhaps goes back to the frontie r experie nce. The pioneer s had a rough life on the frontie r and very few comfort s. This experie nce may have created a strongdesirein the pioneer s and their childre n for goods that would make life more comfort able. Today, the America ns’ love of comfort is seen in the way they furnish their homes, the way they designtheir cars, and the way they like to travel.Cleanliness is also highlyvaluedby America ns. There is a strongemphasis on keeping all parts of the body clean. Perhaps the Puritan (清教徒) heritage has playedsome role in the desirefor cleanliness. The Puritans, a strictProtest ant churchgroup who were among the first settler s of America, stresse d the need to cleanse the body of dirt and of all evil tendenc ies. The saying“Cleanli ness is next to Godline ss” reflect s the beliefof most America ns that it is importa nt to keep their bodiesclean by takinga bath and wearing clean clothes every day. Indeed,many America ns are offende d by anyonewho does not followtheir accepte d standar ds of cleanli ness.In additio n to cleanli ness and comfort, America ns love novelty. They love to have thingsthat are new and conveni ent. Perhaps the love of novelty comes from their pride in their inventi veness. America ns have alwaysbeen interes ted in inventi ng new product s and improvi ng old ones. They like to see changes in cars, clothin g, and product s for the home. New modelsof cars are particu larlyappeali ng. Adverti sement s encoura ge peopleto get rid of old cars and try new ones, whether the old ones still work or not. The America n economy seems to be based on consump tion, not conserv ation.61. The best title for the passage is ______. ( )A. What America n Consume rs LikeB. The Stupidi ty of the America n Consume rsC. America n Consume rs and Puritan Heritag eD. Frontie r Experie nce and Puritan Heritag e62. According to the author, the America n consume rs are fond of the following except______.( )A. comfort and cleanli nessB. novelty and conveni enceC. clean clothes and fine housesD. thriftand economy63. The American love of comfort can be shown in the way they ______. ( )A. love new modelsof carB. eat in fast-food restaur antsC. designtheir cars and furnish their homesD. wear clean clothes and take bath every day64. America ns’ love of cleanliness is believed to be associa ted with ______. ( )A. their livingstandar dB. their lifesty leC. their Puritan traditi onD. their advance d technol ogy65. In general, America ns are interes ted in the following EXCEPT______. ( )A. inventi ng new product sB. improvi ng old product sC. buyingthingsthat are popularD. buyingthingsthat are unknown beforePassage TwoThere are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Informa tion in long-term memorycan be recalle d at a later time when it is needed. The informa tion may be kept for days or weeks. In contras t, information in short-term memoryis kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the informa tion over and over. The following experim ent shows how short-term memoryhas been studied.Henning studied how student s who are learnin g English as a secondlanguag e remembe r vocabul ary. The subject s in his experim ent were 75 college student s. They represe nted all levelsof ability in English: beginni ng, interme diate, advance d, and nativespeakin g student s.To begin with, the subjects listened to recording of a nativespeaker reading a paragra ph in English. Following the recording, the subject s took a 17-questio n test to see which words they remembe red. Eachquestio n had four choices. The subject s had to circle the word they had heard in the recordi ng. Some of the questio ns had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetterare four words that sound alike. Some of the questio ns had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and systemwould be four words with the same meaning. Finally, the subject s took a languag e profici ency test.Henning found that student s with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistake s on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results suggest that beginning student s hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advance d students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory.66. The purpose of Henning’s experim ent is to study ______. ( )A. how the student s remembe r English vocabulary by short-term memoryB. how the student s learn English vocabul aryC. how to improve the student s’ English vocabul aryD. how to take a languag e profici ency test67. The word “subject”in the passage most probably means ______. ( )A. the college coursethe student s takeB. the topic of the listeni ng materia lC. somethi ng being conside redD. the student s experim entedon68. Which of the following stateme nts is TRUE according to the passage? ( )A. Informa tion in short-term memoryis differe nt from that in long-term memory.B. Long-term memorycan be achieve d only by trainin g.C. It is easierto test short-term memorythan long-term memory.D. Henning gave a test on vocabul ary to his student s.69. From Henning’s results we can see that ______. ( )A. beginne rs have difficu lty disting uishin g the pronunc iation of wordsB. advance d student s remembe r words by their meaningC. it is difficu lt to remembe r words that sound alikeD. it is difficu lt to remembe r words that have the same meaning70. The passage is primarily about ______. ( )A. memoryB. two kinds of memoryC. short-term memoryD. an experim ent on studentsPassage ThreeStudy confirm s that moderat e drinkin g reduces stroke(中风) risk. Similar to the way a drink or two a day protect s against heart attacks, moderat e alcohol consump tion wards off strokes, a new study found.The study also found that the type of alcohol consume d—beer, wine or liquor—was unimpor tant. Any of them, or a combina tion was protect ive, researc hers reporte d in today’s Journal of the America n MedicalAssocia tion. “No study has shown benefit in recomme ndingalcohol to those who do not drink”, caution ed the authors, led by Dr. Ralph L. Sacco of Columbi a Univers ity College of Physici ans and Surgeon s in New York. But the new data support the guideli nes of the Nationa l StrokeAssocia tion, which say moderat e drinker s may protect themsel ves from strokes by continu ing to consume alcohol, the authors said.The protect ive effectof moderat e drinkin g against heart attacks is well established, but the data had been conflic ting about alcohol and strokes, the authors said. The new study helps settlethe questio n and is the first to find blacksand Hispanics (西班牙人和葡萄牙人) benefit as well as whites, according to the authors. Further researc h is neededamong other groups, such as Asian, who past study suggest ed may get no strokeprotect ion from alcohol or may even be put at greater risk.Among the groupswhere the protect ive effectexists, its mechanism appears to differfrom the protective effect against heart attacks, which occursthrough boostsin levelsof so-called“good”cholest erol (胆固醇), the authors said. They specula ted alcohol might protect against strokeby actingon some other blood trait, such as the tendency of blood platele ts (血小板) to clump (结块), which is key in forming the blood clots (血块) that can cause strokes.The researc hers studied677 New York residen ts who lived in the norther n part of Manhatt an and had strokes between July 1, 1993 and June, 1997. After takinginto account differe nces in other factors that could affectstrokerisk, such as high blood pressur e, the researc hers estimat ed that subject s who consume d up to two alcoholic drinksdaily were only half as likelyto have suffere d clot-type strokes as nondrin kers. Clot-type strokes account for 80% of all strokes, a leading cause of the US deathsand disability. Strokerisk increas ed with heavier drinkin g. At seven drinksper day, risk was almosttriplethat of moderat e drinker s.An expertspokesm an for the America n Heart Associa tion, who was not involve d in the study, said it was well-done and importa nt informa tion. But it shouldn’t be interpr eted to mean, “I can have two drinksand therefo re not worry about my high blood pressur e or worry about my cholest erol,”said Dr. Edgar J. Kenton, an associa te profess or of clinica l neurolo gy (神经学) at ThomasJeffers on Univers ity Medical College in Philadelphia. Instead, he said, the study provides good reasonto do further researc h and to add alcohol to the list of modifia ble (可更改的) risk factors for stroke.71. According to Dr. Sacco, ______. ( )A. differe nt wines work differe ntly on drinker s at strokeriskB. nondrin kers shouldalso consume a moderat e amountof alcoholC. drinker s shouldkeep to one kind of alcohol to ward off strokesD. moderat e alcohol consump tion protect s against strokes72. The new study conduct ed by Dr. Sacco and his colleagues is uniquein that ( )A. it refutes early studies on the protect ive effectof moderat e drinkin g against heart attacksB. it confirm s early studies of moderat e drinkin g against heart attacksC. it helps to resolve the dispute s over the effectof moderat e drinkin g against strokesD. it finds that moderat e drinkin g can benefit peopleof differe nt races equally well73. Which of the following stateme nts is TRUE about the effectof drinkin g against strokes? ( )A. Moderat e drinkin g protect s against heart attacks and strokes in differe nt ways.B. Even heavy drinker s sufferless chanceof a strokethan nondrin kers.C. Alcohol works only on patient s who sufferclot-type strokes.D. White peopleare more likelyto benefit from moderat e drinkin g than nonwhit es.74. From the fourthparagra ph we learn that ______. ( )A. heart attacks are more likelycausedy alcohol than stroke.B. moderat e drinkin g discour ages blood platele ts from clottin g.C. boostin g the levelsof good cholest erol can lead to heart attacks.D. moderat e drinkin g protect s peopleby makingthe blood cell clump.75. What is said in the last paragra ph by Dr. Kentonindicat es that ______. ( )A. he is in serious doubt about the validit y of the study.B. drinkin g alone can not protect against strokes.C. peopleshouldadd alcohol to their daily diet.D. the study has not built a link between drinkin g and high blood pressur e.Passage FourCommuni cation s technol ogiesare far from equal when it comes to conveyi ng the truth. The first study to compare honesty acrossa range of communi cation s media has found that peopleare twice as likelyto tell lies in phone convers ations as they are in emails. The fact that emailsare automat ically recorded - and can come back to haunt (困扰) you - appears to be the key to the finding.Jeff Hancock of Cornell Univers ity in Ithaca, New York, asked 30 student s to keep a communi cation s diary for a week. In it they noted the numberof convers ations or email exchang es they had lasting more than 10 minutes, and confess ed to how many lies they told. Hancock then workedout the numberof lies per conversationfor each medium. He found that lies made up 14 per cent of emails, 21 per cent of instant message s, 27 per cent of face-to-face interac tionsand an astonis hing 37 per cent of phone calls.His results, to be present ed at the confere nce on human-compute r interac tion in Vienna, Austria, in April, have surpris ed psychologists. Some expecte d emailer s to be the biggest liars, reasoning that because deception (欺骗) makes peopleuncomfo rtable, the detachm ent (非直接接触)of emailin g would make it easierto lie. Othersexpecte d peopleto lie more in face-to-face exchanges because we are most practic ed at that form of communi c ation.But Hancock says it is also crucial whether a convers ationis being recorde d and could be reread,andwhether it occursin real time. Peopleappearto be afraidto lie when they know the communi cation could later be used to hold them to account, he says. This is why fewer lies appearin email than on the phone.Peopleare also more likelyto lie in real time —in an instant message or phone call，say —than if they have time to think of a respons e, says Hancock. He found many lies are spontaneous (脱口而出的) responses to an unexpec ted demand, such as: “Do you like my dress?”Hancock hopes his researc h will help compani es work out the best ways for their employe es to communi cate. For instanc e, the phone might be the best mediumfor sales where employe es are encoura ged to stretch the truth. But given his results, work assessm ent, where honesty is a priorit y, might be best done using email.76. Hancock’s study focuses on ______. ( )A. the consequ encesof lying in various communi cation s mediaB. the success of communi cation s technol ogiesin conveyi ng ideasC. people’s prefere nces in selecti ng communi cation s technol ogiesD. people’s honesty levelsacrossa range of communi cation s media77. Hancock’s researc h finding surpris ed those who believe d that ______. ( )A. peopleare less likelyto lie in instant message sB. peopleare unlikely to lie in face-to-face interac tionsC. peopleare most likelyto lie in email communi cationD. peopleare twice as likelyto lie in phone convers ations78. According to the passage, why are peoplemore likelyto tell the truth through certain media of communication? ( )A. They are afraidof leaving behindtracesof their lies.B. They believe that honesty is the best policy.C. They tend to be relaxed when using those media.D. They are most practic ed at those forms of communi cation.79. According to Hancock, the telephone is a prefera ble mediumfor promoting sales because______. ( )A. salesme n can talk directl y to their custome rsB. salesme n may feel less restrai ned to exagger ateC. salesme n can impress custome rs as being trustwo rthyD. salesme n may pass on instant message s effecti vely80. It can be inferre d from the passage that ______. ( )A. honesty shouldbe encoura ged in interpe rsonal communi cation sB. more employe rs will use emailsto communi cate with their employe esC. suitabl e media shouldbe chosenfor differe nt communi cation purpose sD. email is now the dominan t mediumof communi cation withina companyPart IV Transla tion (15%)Directions A: Transla t e the following into Chinese.81. Beforethe campaig n for electio n of the Preside nt can begin, each politic al party has to chooseits candida te for the Preside ncy.82.

It has very little oxygen and water, the temperature at night is below-50℃ and winds of 00 miles per hour cause severe dust storms. However, the surface of the planet seems to show that water flowed across it some time in the past, and it is believed that there is enough ice at the poles to cover the planet with water if it melts. Although there is no life on the Mars now, some scientists think thatthere may have been some form of life long time ago. At that time, the planet had active volcanoes; the atmosphere was thicker and warmer; and there was water. In fact, in some ways the Mars may have been similar to the Earth, where life exists.Some people believe that the Mars could support life in the future if the right conditions were produced. The first step would be to warm the planet using certain gases which trap the Sun’s heat in the planet’s atmosphere. With warmth, water and carbon dioxide (二氧化碳), simple plants could begin to grow. These plants could slowly make the Mars more suitable for living. It is estimated that the whole process might take between 00,000 and 200,000 years. In the meantime, people could begin to live on the planet in special closed environments. They would providea lot of useful information about conditions on the Mars and the problems connected with living there.71.Some scientists think there may have been life on the Mars in the past because ______.A. there is no life there nowB. there is a large amount of water at the polesC. the Mars may be able to support life in the futureD. conditions may have been similar to those on the Earth72.There could he life on the Mars in the future if ____.A. it supported life in the pastB. certain gases are used to cool the planetC. the atmosphere can be heated enough to grow simple plantsD. the planet’s volcanoes become as active as they were in the past73.People may be able to live on the Mars______.A. within the next 200,000 yearsB. only 200,000 years from nowC. only 50,000 years from nowD. as soon as the planet becomes cool enough74.The author’ s attitude towards the possibility of life on the Mar in the future is ____.A. doubtfulB. positiveC. negativeD. uninterested75.Which is the best title for this passage?A. The possibility of Life on the MarsB. Future Conditions on the MarsC. The Mars and the EarthD. A Study of the Climate of the MarsPassage FourIt is physically impossible for a well-educated intellectual, ora brave man to make money the chief object of his thoughts; as physically impossible as it is for him to make his dinner the principal object of them. All healthy people like making money—ought to like it and to enjoy the satisfaction of winning it; but the main object of their lives is not money; it is something better than money.A good soldier, for instance, mainly wishes to do his fighting well. He is glad of his pay—very properly so, and just complains when you keep him ten months without it; still, his main opinion of life is to win battles, not to be paid for winning them.So of doctors. They like fees no doubt—ought to like them; yet if they are brave and well educated, the entire object of their lives is not fees. They would rather cure their patient and lose their fees than kill him and get it. And so with all other brave and rightly trained men; their work is first, their fees second, very important always l but still second.76.The main idea of this passage is that .A.money matters more than workB.money is not necessary at allC.money is as important as workD.money comes second to work in importance77.The passage implies that healthy-minded people hest enjoy .A.the happiness of accomplishing their workB.the satisfaction of making moneyC.the pleasure of having their dinnerD.the fun of fighting battles78.According to the author, a good soldier .A.dislikes his payB.ignores his payC.ought to enjoy his payD.doesn’t complain when keptwithout pay for months79.The author believes that a good doctor .A.makes money the entire object of his lifeB.places curing his patient above allC.doesn’t like making moneyD.enjoys his work only80.Which of the following is the chief technique used by the author to support his argument?A.Sharp contrastB.Logical reasoningC.Detailed description.D.Illustration with examples.Ⅴ.Writing(20 points)Directions: For this part, you are supposed to write an announcement in about 80words based on the following situation.

Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneDoctors have known for a long time that extremely loud noise can cause hearing2010年成人高等教育学士学位英语考前全真模拟试题（一）顾红曦教授最新编撰damage or loss. The noise can be the sound of a jet airplane or machines in factories or loud music or other common sounds found at home and at work. A person only needs to hear the noise for little more than one second to be affected.An American scientist has found that using aspirin can increase the temporary hearing loss or damage from loud noise. He did an experiment, using a number of male students at a university who all had normal hearing. He gave them different amounts of aspirin for different periods of time, and then he tested their hearing ability. He found that students who were given four grams of aspirin a day suffered much greater temporary hearing loss than those who did not use aspirin. The hearing loss was about two times as great.The scientist said millions of persons in the United States use much larger amounts of aspirin than were used in the study. He said these persons face a serious danger of suffering hearing loss from loud noise.16. Doctors have long known that_______.A. one will become deaf when he hears a loud noiseB. hearing damage or loss can be caused by sounds of all kindsC. one may lose his hearing when he hears a terribly loud noiseD. common sounds at home are not harmful to the ear17. This passage suggests that one's hearing _______.A. will be damaged even if he has heard a loud noise for less than one secondB. will be damaged even if he has heard a loud noise for only little more than one secondC. will not be damaged if he has heard a loud noise for only little more than one secondD. will not be damaged if he has little more than one second to get ready18. According to this passage, one conclusion you can draw is that aspirin ______A. should never be taken more than four grams dailyB. can damage one's hearing when it is given more than four grams dailyC. makes hearing damage from loud noise worseD. increases hearing loss by two times19. Millions of Americans are in danger of suffering hearing loss because they_____.A. often take jet airplanes on tripsB. liked listening to loud musicC. are drowned in loud noises at home and at workD. take too much aspirin20. The purpose of the experiment the American scientist did was to find_____.A. how much aspirin would affect a person's hearingB. how much aspirin should be given in the treatment of the patients with hearing damagefrom loud noiseC. whether the person who had hearing damage should use aspirinD. whether aspirin would increase the temporary hearing damage from loud noisePassage TwoThe Chinese have used a method called acupuncture( 针灸) to perform operations for about 4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep. This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training. But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed. A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop convincing theory to explain how the needles work, in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep. It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21. Acupuncture is_________.A. a medical operationB. a medical needleC. a medical techniqueD. a medical machine22. Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture?A. He knows where to place the needles without pain.B. He knows where the operation is to be performed.C. He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.

It can be learned from the passage that______________.A. the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needlesB. an operation now needs fewer needles than in the pastC. acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 yearsD. few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals25. Which is implied but not stated in the passage' s2010年成人高等教育学士学位英语考前全真模拟试题（一）顾红曦教授最新编撰A. The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B. The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C. The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D. Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.Passage ThreeThe Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (BMGF) can be said to be the most innovative and successful foundation in history, and it has now a $27 billion endowment.A few years ago, Bill Gates and his wife Melinda asked themselves how they could dramatically help the lives of the most people per dollar spent--and then set out to spend more dollars on the ideas they came up with than has ever before been devoted to any philanthropic (慈善的) effort. From the start, they agreed that their money was not to be distributed based on the recognition or applause they might receive, nor on the race, color or religion of the recipients. Rather, cash would be channeled so as to address the vital needs--indeed, in many cases, the very survival---of people around the world. Soon, they turned these thoughts into reality by focusing on global health and learning issues. In 1999 their foundation made one of tile largest charitable pledges ever：$750 million for child vaccines.And Bill and Melinda have since invested far more than money. They have put their impressive intellects and energies behind their philanthropic works. Bill has become a walking dictionary of a medical knowledge. He reads many thousands of pages annually so that he can learn how to attack the world's most dangerous illnesses. I have heard him speak of many times on this subject and each time have been amazed by the breadth of his knowledge. Melinda, for her part, travels the world so that she can understand what a check from Seattle is actually accomplishing 10,000 miles away.She insists that good intentions produce good results. Both Bill and Melinda bring an extraordinary blend of head and heart to the incredibly tough job of intelligently giving away billions of dollars. In particular, they are smart in a way that is rare in large philanthropic institutions. When a need is immediate, their response is immediate.There are no two people I admire more for their contribution to mankind's welfare.26. From the start, the BMGF____________.A. refused to denote their money based on who might receive itB. agreed to attack the world's most dangerous illnessesC. intended to produce immediate results from their moneyD. preferred to help ease the very survival of the needy people27. Why does the author think the BMGF is the most innovative and successfulin history?A. Because their money is ruled to be given to the really needy people.B. Because they insist that good intentions should lead to good results.C. Because their response is immediate if the need is immediate.D. Because they have to know that every check from Seattle is actuallyused.28. The phrase “came up with” (Para. 2) is used to mean_________ .A. intendedB. restatedC. proposedD. claimed29. Which of the following is NOT included in the charitable items of theBMGF?A. Global health issues.B. Child vaccines.C. Learning issues.D. Blend of head and heart.30. From the passage, we can infer that____________.A. the author has a high opinion of the foundationB. the author is surely a close friend of the GatesC. the author believes Bill Gates is really a kind personD. the author admires the medical knowledge of Bill GatesPassage FourSocial customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on street. No man who thought of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should leave one in your lap, or on the table?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is , if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock , the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable-----especially if they are your guests. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.31. If one has accepted a dinner invitation, what should he do if he is to be late for thedinner?A. He should find an excuseB. He should ask for excuse.C. He should say sorryD. He should telephone to explain his being late.32."It would have been bad manners to make his guests feel foolish or uncomfortable." "Bad manners” means ________.2010年成人高等教育学士学位英语考前全真模拟试题（一）顾红曦教授最新编撰A. uglyB. dishonestC. impoliteD. shameful33. Which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?A.
