Reading Comprehension:(A)So long as teachers fail to distinguish between teaching and learning , they will continue to undertake to do for children thatTeaching and learning are two entirely different processes. They differ in kind and function. The function of teaching is to create the conditions and the climate that will make it possible for children to devise the most efficient system for teaching themselves to read. Teaching is also public activity. It can be seen and observed.Learning to read involves all that each individual does to make sense of the world of printed language. Almost all of it is private ,for learning is an occupation of the mind ,and that process is not open to public scrutiny.If teacher and learner roles are not interchangeable ,what then can be done through teaching that will aid the child in the quest（探索）for knowledge? Smi th has one principal rule for all teaching instructions. ―Make learning to read easy, which means making reading a meaningful, enjoyable and frequent experience for children. ‖When the roles of teacher and learner are seen for what they are, and when both teacher fulfil them appropriately, then much of the pressure and feeling of failure for both is eliminated. Learning to read is made easier when teachers create an environment where children are given the opportunity to solve the problem of leaning to read by reading.1．The problem with the reading course as mentioned in the first paragraph is that ________.A. it is one of the most difficult school coursesB. students spend endless hours in readingC. reading tasks are assigned with little guidanceD. too much time is spent in teaching about reading2．The teaching of reading will be successful if ________.A. teachers can improve conditions at school for the studentsB. teachers can enable students to develop their own way of readingC. teachers can devise the most effcient system for readingD. teachers can make their teaching activities observable3．The underlined word― scrutiny‖ most probably means―________‖.A. inquiryB. observationC. controlD. suspicion4．According to the passage, learning to read will no longer be a difficult task when ________.A. children become highly motivatedB. teacher and learner roles are interchangeableC. teaching helps children in the search for knowledgeD. reading enriches children‘s experience5．The main idea of the passage is that ________.A. teachers should do as little as possible in helping students learn to readB. teachers should encourage students to read as widely as possibleC. reading ability is something acquired rather than taughtD. reading is more complicated that generally believed(B)around today to believe our own new dreams of power.Although Madonna‘s star might be getting less bright in Britain and America, let us not underestimate her influence. Many young women used to think that being a strong, feminist, demanding woman meant that they might have to give up their claims to be sexual, funny and individualist. But here is someone who is completely in control of her life, her art, her performance. When she grabs her crotch on stage or sells a book o f pin-up pictures of herself, we can see her recreating images that have been used before only to exploit women , and using them to show women that their sexuality is something to be proud of .No wonder of Madonna‘s fans are not men but young women. They are responding to this new, real possibility that they can play with fire and may notget burnt. They identify with the fat that Madonna controls all aspects of her art, rather than being the innocent victim.Anothe r female icon whose power has swept through women‘s imaginations is Margaret Thatcher. It is all very well for her to say that she does not think she woes the women‘s movement anything. What is important for women, whether or not they sympathizes with her methods, politics or rhetoric, is that here was a woman who stood with the men at the G7 summits or in the British Cabinet as a leader among leaders.She is not an icon that is easy to cope with. Just as with Madonna, she goes against the grain of the most traditional images of female power. But by breaking through the male cordons of the British establishment she has made sure that never again can a woman‘s ability to run a democratic country be questioned just because she is a woman.1. It can be seen from t he passage that Madonna‘s influence is_________.A. more and more increasingB. still great in societyC. becoming less and lessD. disappearing as time goes by2. Most of Madonna‘s fans are young women because _________.A. she controls all aspects of her life and artB. she sells a book of pin-up pictures of herselfC. she grabs her crotch on stageD. she uses her pictures to show that she is sexy3. It is indicated in the passage that Margaret Thatcher __________.A. became successful because she was the only stateswoman amongstatesmen.B. Thinks male British leaders should have done more to help womenC. Thinks her success has nothing to do with the women‘s movementD. Has donated a large sum of money to the women‘s movement4. The example of Margaret Thatcher shows that __________.A. everyone should support the women‘s movementB. women should learn to work together with menC. one‘s ability should not be judged by sexD. women should not seek to be sexual onlyA. women have gathered strength from the women‘s movementB. women have achieved a new-found powerC. women should take careers to realize their powerD. women‘s role should be in the home(C)Baldness, the absence of hair on the head, has been divided into five main types by those who study this affliction of human beings. A general thinning of the hair is called partial baldness and an absence of hair in areas usually covered by hair is labeled area baldness. A thinning of the hair which occurs in persons after about fifty years of age is called senile baldness. In this form of partial baldness, the hairline tends to recede, and there is a gradual thinning of the hair over the whole head. Parts of the head, such as the top, may grow completely bald.Young people may experience what is called premature baldness. And when certain areas of the head become bald while hair over the rest of the scalp continues to grow at a normal rate, the condition is called pattern baldness.Despite all the research that has been done on the subject, the specific causes of baldness are still unknown. Experts believe that heredity, aging, hormone imbalance and infection have an effect on the loss of hair. The most widespread cause of baldness is heredity, but it affects female members of a family less than males. The women of a bald family are more apt to retain their hair than the men. The females, however, pass on an inherited tendency toward baldness to their male offspring. Besides the possible cause mentioned above, baldness may result from such infections and diseases as ringworm, dermatitis, typhoid fever and scarlet fever. This type of baldness is usually not permanent, however. Hygiene has been found to be an important factor in baldness. An important cleaning of thescalp may accelerate baldness, while the stimulation from cleansing and brushing helps to delay it.1. __________ does not occur among the aged.A. Partial baldnessB. Premature baldnessC. Senile baldnessD. Areabaldness2. The word ―affliction‖ in the first sentence can be best replaced by_________.A. conditionB. likenessC. sufferingD. existence3. When certain parts of the head are bald and the hair elsewhere on thescapl grows normally, the condition is __________.A. known as senile baldnessB. named premature baldnessC. calledpattern baldness D. labeled partial baldnessA. convey this tendency to their sonsB. are as susceptible to baldness asthe malesC. invariably show evidence of baldnessD. rarely, if ever, lose much of their hair5. Baldness caused by certain fevers is __________.A. normally temporary in natureB. quite like hereditary baldnessC. theresult of poor hygiene D. a kind of area baldness(D)The ―standard of living‖ of any country means the average person‘s share of the goods and services which the country produces. A country‘s standard of living, therefore, depends first and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. ―Wealth‖ in this sense is not money, for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy: ―goods‖ such as food and clothing, and ―services‖ such as transport and entertainment.A country‘s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors, most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extend upon a country‘s natural resources, such as coal, gold, and other minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have a fertile soil and a favorable climate; other regions possess perhaps only one of these things, and some regions possess none of them. The U.S.A. is one of the wealthiest regions of the world because she has vast natural resources within her borders, her soil is fertile, and her climate is varied. The Sahara Desert, on the other hand, is one of the least wealthy.Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use. China is perhaps as well off as U.S.A. in natural resources, but suffered for many years from civil and external wars, and for this and other reasons was unable to develop her resources. Sound and stable political conditions, and freedom from foreign invasion, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, and to produce more wealth than another country equally well served by nature but less well ordered. Another important factor is the technical efficiency of a country‘s people. Old countries that have, through many centuries, trained up numerous skilled craftsmen ad technicians are better placed to produce wealth than countries whose workers are largely unskilled. Wealth also produces wealth. As a country becomes wealthier, its people have a large margin for saving, and can put their savings into factories and machines which will help workers to turn out more goods in their workings day.1. A country‘s wealth depends on __________.A. its moneyB. its standard of livingC. its ability to provide transport and entertainmentD. its ability to provide goods and services2. The word ―civil‖ in the second sentence of the second paragraphprobably means ____.A. short and frequentB. long-lastingC. between one part of a country and anotherD. for the most partA. the Sahara Desert is a very poor regionB. a country‘s wealth depends on many factorsC. natural resources are an important factor in the wealth or poverty of acountryD. the U.S.A. is one of the wealthiest countries in the world4. The second sentence in paragraph 3 is ____________.A. not related to the paragraphB. the main idea of the paragraphC. the conclusion of the paragraphD. an example supporting the main idea of the paragraph5. How many advantages are mentioned in the third paragraph?A. TwoB. ThreeC. FourD. FiveIII. 完形填空Some plays are so successful that they run for years on end. In many ways, this is36for the poor actors who are required to go on repeating the sane37night after night. One would38them to know their parts by heart and39have cause to falter（结巴）.Yet40is not always the case.A famous actor in a41successful play was once cast in the role of an aristocrat42had been imprisoned in Bastille for twenty years. In the last act，a gaoler（监狱长，看守）would always comeon to the stage with a letter which he would hand to the prisoner.43the noble was expected to read the letter at each44,he always insisted that it should be written out in full.One night, the gaoler decided to play a joke45his colleague to find out if, after so many performances, he had managed to learn the46of the letter by heart. The curtain went up on the final act of the play and revealed（使显露）the aristocrat sitting alone behind bars in his dark cell. Just then，the gaoler47with the precious letter in his hands. He entered the48and presented the letter to the aristocrat. But the copy he gave him had not been written out in49as usual. It was simply a blank sheet of paper. The gaoler looked on eagerly,50to see if his fellow actor had at last learnt his lines. The noble stared at the blank sheet of paper for a few seconds. Then，squinting（眯着眼看）his eves，he said,―The light is51.Read the letter to me.‖And he promptly handed the sheet of paper to the gaoler.52that he could not remember a word of the letter either, the gaoler replied，―The light is indeed dim，sir. I must get my53‖With this, he hurried off the stage. Much t o the aristocrat‘s54，the gaoler returned a few moments later with a pair of glasses and the55copy of the letter which he proceeded（继续进⾏）to read to the prisoner.IV.

Reading Comprehension(A)Between about 1910 and 1930, new artistic movements in European art were making themselves felt in the United States. American artists became acquainted with the new art on their trips to Paris and at the exhibitions in the famous New York gallery ―291‖( named after its address on Fifth Avenue) of the photographer Alfred Stieglitz. But most important in the spread of the modern movements in the United States was the sensational Armory Show of the 1913 held in New York, inwhich the works of many of the leading European artists were seen along with the works of a number of progressive American painters.Several of the American modernists who were influenced by the Armory Show found the urban landscape, especially New York, an appealing subject. Compared with the works of the realist painters, the works of Americanmodernists were much further removed from the actual appearance of the city; they were more interested in the ―feel ― of the city, more concerned wi th the meaning behind appearance. However, both the painters of the Ash Can School‖ and the later realists were still tied to nineteenth-century or earlier styles, while the early modernists shared in the international breakthroughs of the art of the twentieth century.The greatest of these breakthroughs was Cubism, developed most fully in France between 1907 and 1914, which brought about a major revolution in Western painting. It overturned the regional tradition that had been built upon since the Renaissance. In cubism, natural forms were broken down analytically into geometric shapes. No longer was a clear differentiation made between the figure and the background of a painting: the objects represented and the surface on which they were painted became one. The Cubists abandoned the conventional single vantage point of the viewer, and objects depicted from multiple viewpoints were shown at the same way.1. What‘s the main topic of the passage?A. Modern art movements in the United States.B. The great influence of Cubism.C. Several American modernists found urban landscape an appealingsubject.D. Contemporary artists in the United States.2. Which of the following is not mentioned as a means through whichAmerican artists learned about new movements?A. Trips to Paris.B. Lectures by European artists.C. The exhibitions in the famous New York gallery ―291‖.D. The sensational Armory Show in 1913.3. What was exhibited on the sensational Armory Show of 1913 in NewYork?A. Works of many leading European artists as well as works of manyprogressive American painters.B. Works of all the European artists and American painters.C. Works of a number of American modernists and painters of the ―AshCan School‖.。

东北农业大学成人教育学院考试题签大学英语Ⅳ（A）一、阅读题（每题2分，共40分）Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questionsor unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A. B. C. and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheetwith a single line through the center.Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:In a moment of personal crisis, how much help can you expect from a New York taxi driver? I began studying this question and found the answers interesting.One morning I got into three different taxis and announced, “Well, it’s my first day back in New York in seven years. I’ve been prison.” Not a single driver replied, so I tried again. “Yeah, I shot a man in Re no.” I explained, hoping the driver would ask me why, but nobody asked. The only response came from a Ghananian driver, “Reno? That is in Nevada?”Taxi drivers were uniformly (一致地) sympathetic when I said I’d just been fired. “This is America,” a Haitian driver said. “One door is closed. Another is open.” He argued against my plan to burn down my boss’s house, “If you do something silly and they put you away, you cannot look for another job.” A Pakistani driver even turned down a chance to profit from my lo ss of hope: He refused to take me to the middle of the George Washington Bridge, a $20 trip. “Why you want to go there? Go home and relax. Don’t worry. Take a new job.”One very hot weekday in July, while wearing a red skin mask and holding a stuffed (塞满的) pillowcase with the word “BANK” on it, I tried hailing(招呼) a taxi five times outside different banks. The driver picked me up every time. My ride with Guy Caaude Thevenain, a Haitian driver, was typical of the superb (一流的) assistance I received.“Is anyone following us?”“No,” said the driver, looking in his rearview mirror at traffic and me.“Let’s go across the park,” I said. “I just robbed the bank there. I got $ 25,000.”“$25,000?” he asked.“Yeah, you think it was wrong to take it?”“No, man. I w ork 8 hours and I earn just $70. If I can do that, I do it too.”As we approached 86, Lexington Street, I pointed to the Chemical Bank.“Hey, there’s another bank,” I said, “Could you wait here a minute while I go inside?”“No, I can’t wait. Pay me now.” H is reluctance may have something to do with money —taxi drivers think the rate for waiting time is too low, but I think he wanted me to learn that even a bank robber can’t expect unconditional support.1. From the Ghanaian driver’s response, we can infer that ________.A. he was not caring about the killingB. he was frightened to hear what the writer saidC. he thought the writer was a criminalD. he thought the writer was crazy2. Why did the Pakistani driver refuse to give the writer a ride?注：装订线内禁止答题，装订线外禁止有姓名和其他标记。

The inner workings of our own brains we feel to be uniquely worthy of investigation, but custom, we have a way of thinking, is behavior at its most commonplace. As a matter of fact, it is the other way around. Traditional custom, taken the world over, is a mass of detailed behavior more astonishing than what any one person can ever evolve in individual actions. Yet that is a rather trivial aspect of the matter. The fact of first-rate importance is the predominant role that custom plays in experience and in belief and the very great varieties it may manifest .No man ever looks at the world with pristine eyes. He sees it edited by a definite set of customs and institutions and ways of thinking. Even in his philosophical probings he cannot go behind these stereotypes; his very concepts of the true and the false will still have reference to his particular traditional customs. John Dewey has said in all seriousness that the part played by custom in shaping the behavior of the individual as over against any way in which he can affect traditional custom, is as the proportion of the total vocabulary of his mother tongue over against those words of his own baby talk that are taken up into the language of his family. When one seriously studies axial orders that have had the opportunity to develop independently, the becomes no more than an exact and matter-of-fact observation. The life history of the individual is first and foremost an adjustment to the patterns and standards traditionally handed down in his community. From the moment of his birth the customs into which he is born shape his experience and behavior. By the time he can talk, he is the little creature of his culture, and by the time he is grown and able to take part in its activities, its habits are his habits, its beliefs his beliefs, its impossibilities his impossibilities.1. The author thinks the reason why custom has been ignored in the academic world is that__________.A custom reveals only the superficial nature of human behaviorB the study of social orders can replace the study of customC people are still not aware of the important role that custom plays in forming our world outlookD custom has little to do with our ways of thinking2. Which of the following is true according to John Dewey?A An individual can exercise very little influence on the cultural tradition into which he is born.B Custom is the direct result of the philosophical probings of a group of people.C An individual is strongly influenced by the cultural tradition even before he is born.D Custom represents the collective wisdom which benefits the individual.3. The world "custom" in this passage most probably means__________.A the concept of the true and the false of a societyB the independently developed social ordersC the adjustment of the individual to the new social environmentD the patterns and standards of behavior of a community4. According to the passage a person's life, from his birth to his death,________.A is constantly shaping the cultural traditions of his peopleB is predominated by traditional customC is continually influenced by the habits of other communitiesD is chiefly influenced by the people around him5. The author' s pump in writing this passage is ________.A to urge individuals to follow traditional customsB to stress the strong influence of customs on an individualC to examine the interaction of man and axial customsD to show man' s adjustment to traditional customs2.Each child has his individual（个人的）pattern of social, as well as physical, development. Some of it depends on his home life and his relationships with the people who love him. Children in large families learn how to get along with others through normal brother- sister play and tussles （打斗）. An only child, on the other hand , may have to learn his lessons in social living through hard experiences on the playground or in the classroom. Twins who always have one another to lean on may be slow in responding to others because they do not need anyone else.A child who is constantly scolded and made to feel he does everything wrong may have a difficult time developing socially. He may be so afraid of displeasing the adults around him that he keeps to himself （where he can’t get into trouble）or he may take the opposite route and go out of his way to create trouble. Like the deserted child, he too may return to infantile （幼稚的）pleasures, developing habits that will satisfy him, but create barriers（障碍）toward social contact.6．Which of the followin g may have effect on children’s paten of social development?A. Age.B. EducationC. Home life.D. Gender（性别）7．The passage implies that which of the following may have the earliest time learning to get along with others?A. An only childB. A child from a large familyC. TwinsD. Children who are continually scolded8．Which of the following is implied by the passage?A. Too much scolding of children may make their social development difficult.B. All children developed in the same ways.C. Children who are constantly scolded may learn to get along with others quickly.D. Deserted children often exhibit quicker social development.9．We can inferred from the passage that________.A. continual scolding is not harmful to the child.B. continual scolding holds back healthy social development.C. continual scolding has no effect on obeying orders.D. continual scolding has no effect on physical development10．Where does the passage say the only child learns his social lessons?A. School and homeB. Home and playgroundC. Classroom and playgroundD. All of the above3.A network ---whether for work, play, or research---- interweaves departments and flung branches. What if they were all interconnected --- the libraries, the hobbyists, and the businesses--- internet worked into one all -encompassing, multipurpose network of networks?Hence comes the word “Inter-net”. Simply put, it’s all of these computers hooked up to each other.It’s commonly called the network of networks; plug into any part , and you plug into the whole. (As an open system, however, this doesn’t mean that anyone can then access file on your hard disk. And you’re not susceptible() to viruses unless you take some software from the Net and run it with your computer, which you might not ever do).Why do we say, “Plug into any part, and you plug into the whole?” Because there’s no center to it. Just as there’s。

It was still too early for me to have my evening meal so I walked along the seafront (滨海马路) for about an hour until I began to feel hungry. By that time I was not far from a favorite restaurant of mine where I often went to eat two or three times a week. I knew the owner well and frequently complimented (赞美恭维) him on his excellent cooking. I went into the restaurant which was already crowded and ordered my meal. While I was waiting for the soup to arrive I looked around to see if I knew anyone in the restaurant. It was then that I noticed that a man sitting at a corner table near the door kept glancing in my direction as if he knew me I certainly did not know him for I never forgot a face. The man had a newspaper open in front of him which he was pretending to read though all the while I could see that he was keeping an eye on me. When the waiter brought my soup the man was clearly puzzled by the familiar way in which the waiter and I addressed each other. He became even more puzzled as time went on and it grew more and more obvious that I was well known in the restaurant. Eventually he got up and went into the kitchen. After a few minutes he came out again paid his bill and left without another glance in my direction. When I had finished and was about to pay my bill I called the owner of the restaurant over and asked him what the man had wanted. The owner was a little embarrassed by my questio n and at first did not want to tell me. I insisted. “Well” he said “that man was a detective.” “Really?” I said considerably surprised. “He followed you here because he thought you were a man he was looking for” the owner of the restaurant said. “When he c ame into the kitchen he showed mea photograph of the wanted man. He certainly looked like you! Of course since we know you here I was able to convince him that he had made a mistake.” “It’s lucky I came to a restaurant where I am known” I said “otherwise I might have been arrested!”(1).When the author got to his favorite restaurant it was ___________ .A.already nine o’clockB.eight o’clock on the dotC.about two minutes past eightD.slightly later than eight o’clock答案:D(2).The man sitting at the corner table near the door kept glancing in the direction of the author because he was __________________ .A.interested in the personality of the authorB.making a study of the authorC.looking up and down the authorD.keeping a lookout over the author答案:D(3).The author was followed by the detective probably because he ___________ .A.took after a suspectB.was similar to a criminal in personalityC.was an accompliceD.looked like a murderer答案:A(4).The detective had a newspaper open in front of him in order to ____________ .A.read it in detailB.cover up what he was really doing thereC.have it recheckedD.wait for his food答案:B(5).According to the text if the author had been a stranger in the restaurant he would have been____________________.A.taken to courtB.followedC.capturedD.sentenced to a few years’ imprisonment答案:C40.Man young British doctors drink too much and use cannabis and other illegal drugs according toa survey released last week. The poll of 14 junior doctors in northeastern England published in a letter in The Lancet medical journal showed that more than 60 per cent drank more alcohol than the recommended safe limits. Over 35 per cent of male doctors and 19 per cent of female physicians also admitted using cannabis and up to 13 p er cent also took other drugs. “The current drinking habits illegal drug use and stress in some junior doctors is of concern not only for their own well being but also how they affect patients’ care” said Dr. Farhad Kam all of the University of Newcastle w ho conducted the study. The British Medical Association ( BMA ) said the findings were consistent with its own research into the habits of the junior doctors. The survey was released a day after Dr.Patrick Dixon a British AIDS expert and author called for random testing of doctors for alcohol and drug abuse. EXxon the author of The Truth about Drugs said that the problem posed a significant threat to the public health because patients’ lives were being put at risk. “With around 10 per cent of all doctors either intoxicated(沉醉)or withdrawing (from drugs or alcohol) we are faced with the fact that significant numbers of doctors have impaired judgment because of addiction” Dixon said in a telephone interview. He claimed that more than 1000 addicted doctors in London were addicts but he said their colleagues were reluctant to identify them because of fear of retribution (报复). “Our estimate is that up to 10 percent of doctors may have a drug or alcohol problem at some time in their working lives” a BMA spokeswoma n said.(1).From the first paragraph we can know ________________.A.it is quite fashionable to take cannabis in BritainB.taking cannabis is against the law in BritainC.cannabis is something delicious to eatD.there is no limit to the use of cannabis答案:B(2).What does the word “released” (Para. 6) mean?A.Set free.B.Given up.C.Finished.D.Issued.答案:D(3).According to Dr. Dixon alcohol drinking and drug abuse ___________.A.put the health of the drinkers and users at riskB.had negative influence over the younger doctorsC.presented a great threat to the public healthD.was a pretty new social phenomenon in Britain答案:C(4).The word “impaired” (Para. 8) means ____________.A.irresponsibleB.weakenedC.falseD.paired up答案:B(5).The colleagues of the addicted doctors were unwilling to identify them because they_____________.A.did not want to lose friendshipcked self-confidenceC.didn’t want to get punishedD.didn’t’ t want the addicted doctors to be punished答案:C45.One of the most daring deep-space missions NASA has ever launched is turning out to be one of the least publicized. The target is a large asteroid (小行星) named 1992KD which orbits the sun millions of miles from Earth. But that destination is almost incidental to the performance of the spacecraft that will make the trip. Though it looks little different from countless other unmannedprobes NASA has launched the ship will be navigated by an electronic brain that has been likened to HAL the independent-minded computer in the film 2001 and will move through space under power of a system that has long been the stuff of technological fantasies: an ion propulsion (离子推进) engine. If all goes as planned Deep Space 1 scheduled for launch later this month will be the forerunner of a new’ generatio n of spacecraft. While flight planners hope the ship will make some interesting observations about the target asteroid including its composition and the structure of its surface DS1 ‘s primary assignment is to validate a host of new technologies NASA has a lways considered too risky to try on a mission that may attract a great deal of public attention. Says Mar Rayman of Jet Propulsion Laboratory DS1’ s chief engineer “We have an unproven propulsion system powered by an unproven solar panel commanded by an unproven navigation system. What is most remarkable about the spacecraft is how it gets from place to place. After being launched by an ordinary rocket DS1 will be pushed through space by an engine that works by firing electrons into atoms of xenon gas stripping each of an electron and giving the atoms an electric charge-ionizing them. The ions are then accelerated through an electric field and emitted from the thrusters at 65000 m. p. h. Despite that speed the particles produce little thrust comparable to the weight of a piece of paper.(1).What is special about NASA’s planned deep-space mission regarding its publicity?A.It is targeted at a large asteroid.B.It is much less reported by the media.C.It is the same as other unmanned probes.D.It isn’t certain whether it will be successful.答案:B(2).What is the primary purpose of the DS1 mission?A.Testing new technologies for future spacecraft.B.Calculating risks for the benefit of other missions.C.Studying the surface of a large asteroid.D.Proving a new generation of spacecraft.答案:A(3).Once launched whether the spacecraft will reach its destination is incidental to the performance of all the following EXCEPT ___________.A.the self-navigation systemB.the ion-powered engineC.the solar cellsD.the flight planners答案:D(4).How does the DS1 leave the earth’s orbit?A.By its special propulsion engine.B.By a conventional rocket engine.C.By firing electrons into the atoms of xenon gas.D.By accelerating through an electric field.答案:B(5).Which of the following is NOT true according to this article?A.The author likens the DS1’s navigation system to an electronic brain.B.The DS1 is the first of a new breed of spacecraft.C.The DS1 chief engineer has nothing to lose in such a mission.D.The DS1’s power system used to be the dream of scientists.答案:C50.Most young people enjoy some forms of physical activity. It may be walking cycling or swimming or in winter skating or skiing. It may be a game of some kind-foot-ball hockey golf or tennis. It may be mountaineering(登山). Those who have a passion for climbing high and difficult mountains are often looked upon with astonishment. Why are men and women willing to suffer cold and hardship and to take risks on high mountains? This astonishment is caused probably by the difference between mountaineering and other forms of activity to which men give their leisure. Mountaineering is a sport and not a game. There are no man made rules as there are for such games as golf and football. There are of course rules of a different kind which it would be dangerous to ignore but it is this freedom from man-made rules that makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to use their own methods. If we compare mountaineering and other more familiar sports we might think that one big difference is that mountaineering is not a “team game”. We should be mistaken in this. There are it is true no “matches” between “teams” of climbers but when climbers are on a rock face lixxxxnked by a rope on which their lives may depend there is obviously teamwork. The mountain climber knows that he may have to fight forces that are stronger and are powerful than man. He has to fight the forces of nature. His sport requires high mental and physical qualities. A mountain climber continues to improve in skill year after year. A skier if probably past his best by the age of thirty and most international tennis champions are in their early twenties. But it is not unusual for a man of fifty or sixty to climb the highest mountains in the Alps. They may take more time that younger men but they probably climb with more skill and less waste of effort and they certainly experience equal enjoyment.(1).Mountaineering involves everything EXCEPT ______________.A.coldB.hardshipC.riskD.astonishment答案:D(2).The difference between a sport and a game has to do with the kind of __________.A.activityB.rulesC.uniformD.participants答案:B(3).Mountaineering can be called a team sport because _________.A.it is an Olympic eventB.teams compete against each otherC.mountaineers depend on each other while climbingD.there are 5 climbers on each team答案:C(4).Mountaineers compete against __________.A.natureB.each otherC.other teamsD.international standards答案:A(5).The best title for the passage is ___________.A.Mountaineering Is Different from Golf and FootballB.Mountaineering Is More Attractive than Other SportsC.MountaineeringD.Mountain Climbers答案:C55.Faces like fingerprints are unique. Did you ever wonder how it is possible for us to recognize people? Even a skilled writer probably could not describe all the features that make one face different from another. Yet a very young child-or even an animal such as a pigeon-can learn to recognize faces we all take this ability for granted. We also tell people apart by how they behave. When we talk about someone’s personality we mean the ways in which he or she acts speaks thinks and feels that make that individual different from other. Like the human face human personality is very complex. But describing someone’s personality in words is somewhat easier than describing his face. If you were asked to describe what a “nice face” looked like you probably would have a difficult time doing so. But if you were asked to describe a “nice person” you might begin to think about someone who was kind considerate friendly warm and so forth. There are many words to describe how a person thinks feels and acts. Fordin Allport an American psychologist found nearly 18000 English words characteri ng differences in people’s behavior. And many of us use this information as a basis for describing or typing his personality. Bookworms conservatives military types-people are described with such terms. People have always tried to “type” each other. Actors in early Greek drama wore masks to show the audience whether they played the villains or the hero’s role. In fact the words “person” and “personality” come from the Latin persona meaning “mask”. Today most television and movie actors do not wear masks. Bu t we easily tell the “good guys” from the “bad guys” because the two types differ in appearance as well as in actions.(1).By using the simile (直喻) of fingerprints the author tells us that _____.A.people differ from each other in facial featuresB.people have difficulty in describing the features of fingerprintsC.people have different personalitiesD.people can learn to recognize faces答案:A(2).According to this passage some animals have the gift of _____.A.typing each otherB.telling people apart by how they behaveC.recognizing human facesD.telling good people from bad people答案:C(3).Who most probably knows best hw to describe people’s personality?A.Psychologists.B.The modern TV audience.C.The ancient Greek audienceD.The movie star.答案:A(4).According to the passage it is possible for us to tell one type of person form another because_____.A.human faces have complex featuresB.people differ in their behavioral and physical characteristicsC.human fingerprints provide unique informationD.people’s behavior can be easily described in words答案:B(5).Which of the following is the major point of the passage?A.How to get to know people.B.Why it is necessary to identify people’s personality.C.Hoe best to recognize people.D.Why it is possible to describe people.答案:D三、完型填空 (共 1 道试题共 20 分)75.Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Their existence, especially the existence of rare animals makes the whole world lively and colorful. Unfortunately, we heard such news recently that rare animals, even kept in the zoo, couldn't escape being hurt and killed, at which we can feel nothing but shocked. The reason why it happened is that some people lack understanding about these animals and caring for them.Therefore, we should study and publicize the information about rare animals, and keep it in mind that protecting animals is the duty of everyone. At the same time, we should take active and effective measures. After all, protecting animals is protecting ourselves.作业题（二）参考答案I. 单项填空1---15 DDCCB BDCBA CBCDD16—30 ABDCD DDCCD CCBADII.

But now, not only are feminist critics and historians rediscovering the heroines of the past, we have also enough real heroines around today to believe our own new dreams of power.Although Madonna’s star might be getting less bright in Britain and America, let us not underestimate her influence. Many young women used to think that being a strong, feminist, demanding woman meant that they might have to give up their claims to be sexual, funny and individualist. But here is someone who is completely in control of her life, her art, her performance. When she grabs her crotch on stage or sells a book o f pin-up pictures of herself, we can see her recreating images that have been used before only to exploit women , and using them to show women that their sexuality is something to be proud of .No wonder of Madonna’s fans are not men but young women. They are responding to this new, real possibility that they can play with fire and may not get burnt. They identify with the fat that Madonna controls all aspects of her art, rather than being the innocent victim.Another female icon whose power has swept through women’s imaginations is Margaret Thatcher. It is all ve ry well for her to say that she does not think she woes the women’s movement anything. What is important for women, whether or not they sympathizes with her methods, politics or rhetoric, is that here was a woman who stood with the men at the G7 summits or in the British Cabinet as a leader among leaders.She is not an icon that is easy to cope with. Just as with Madonna, she goes against the grain of the most traditional images of female power. But by breaking through the male cordons of the British establ ishment she has made sure that never again can a woman’s ability to run a democratic country be questioned just because she is a woman.31.It can be seen from the passage that Madonna’s influence is _________.A.more and more increasingB. still great in societyC. becoming less and lessD. disappearingas time goes by32.Most of Madonna’s fans are young women because _________.A.she controls all aspects of her life and artB. she sells a book of pin-up pictures of herselfC. she grabs her crotch on stageD. she uses her pictures to show that she is sexy33.It is indicated in the passage that Margaret Thatcher __________.A.became successful because she was the only stateswoman among statesmen.B.Thinks male British leaders should have done more to help womenC.Think s her success has nothing to do with the women’s movementD.Has donated a large sum of money to the women’s movement34.The example of Margaret Thatcher shows that __________.A.everyone should support the women’s movement B women should learn to work togetherwith menC one’s ability should not be judged by sexD women should not seek to be sexual only35.The main idea of the passage is __________.A.women have gathered strength from the women’s movementB. women have achieved anew-found powerC women should ta ke careers to realize their powerD women’s role should be in the home2In science the meaning of the word “explain” suffers with civilization’s every step in search of reality. Science cannot really explain electricity, magnetism, and gravitation; their effects can be measured and predicted, but of their nature no more is known to the modern scientist than to Thales who first speculated on the electrification of amber. Most contemporary physicists reject the notion that man can ever discover what these my sterious forces”really” are. “Electricity”, Bertrand Russell says, “ is not a thing, like St. Paul’s Cathedral; it is a way in which things behave. When we have told how things behave when they are electrified, and under what circumstances they are electrified, we have told all there is to tell.” Until recently scientists would have disapproved to such an ideA.Aristotle, for example, whose natural science dominated Western thought for two thousand years, believed that man could arrive at an understanding of reality by reasoning from self-evident principles. He felt, for example, that it is a self-evident principle that everything in the universe has the ground because that’s where it belongs. The goal of Aristotelian science was to explain why things happen. Modern science was born when Galileo began trying to explain how things happen and thus originated the method of controlled experiment which now forms the basis of scientific investigation.36. The aim of the controlled experiment is ___________.A. to explain why things happenB. to explain how things happenC. to form the basis of scientific investigation.D. to prove accepted theories37. What principles most influenced scientific thought for two thousand years?A. Thales’ speculations.B. Self-evident principles.C. Aristotle’s natural science.D. Russell’s theory on electricity.38. Bertrand Russell’s notion about electricity is __________.A. disapproved of by most modern scientistsB. in agreement with Aristotle’s theory ofself-evident principlesC. disagreed by Galileo’s theoryD. supported by scientific investigation directed toward“how”things happen39. The passage says that until recently scientists disagreed with the idea that _________.A. man can’t discover what forces “really” areB. there are mysterious forces in the universeC. there are self-evident principlesD. we can discover why things behave as they do40. According to Aristotle, that objects fall to the ground __________.A. is a result of reasoningB. could be explained from self-evident principlesC. is an instance of self-evident principleD. could be tested by experience3When John Milton, writer of“Paradise Lost”, entered Cambridge University, in 1625, he was already skilled in Latin after seven years of studying it as his seco nd language at St. Paul’s School, London. Like all English boys who prepared for college in grammar schools, he had learned not only to read Latin but also to speak and write it smoothly and correctly. His pronunciation of Latin was English, however, and seemed to have sounded strange to his friends when he later visited Italy.Schoolboys gained their skill in Latin in a bitter way. They kept in mind the rules to make learning by heart easier. They first made a word -for -word translation and then an idiomatic translation into English. As they increased their skill, they translated their English back into Latin without referring to the book and then compared their translation with the original. The schoolmaster was always at hand to encourage them. All schoolmasters believed Latin should be beaten in.。
