So the massacre(大屠杀)on the road may be regarded as a social problem. In fact, the enemies of society on wheels are rather harmless people, just ordinary people acting carelessly, you might say. But it is a principle both of law and common morality that carelessness is no excuse when one’s actions could bring death or damage to others Researchers have estimated that as many as 80 percent of all automobile accidents can be attributed to the psychological condition of the driver. Emotional upsets can distort drivers reactions, slow their judgments, and blind them to dangers that might otherwise be evident. The experts warn that it is vital for every driver to make a conscious effort to keep one’s emotions under control. Yet the irresponsibility that accounts for much of the problem is not confined to drivers. Street walkers regularly violate traffic regulations. They are at fault in most vehicle walker accidents. And many cyclists even believe that they are not subject to the basicrules of the road. Significant legal advances have been made towards safer driving in the past few years. Safety standards for vehicle have been raised both at the point of manufacture and through periodic roadworthiness inspections. In addition, speed limits have been lowered. Due to these measures, the accident rate has deceased. But the accident experts still worry because there has been little or no improvement in the way drivers behave. The only real and lasting solution, say the experts, is to convince people that driving is a skilled task requiring constant care and concentration. Those who fail to do all these things present a threat to those with whom they share the roadside.41.What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage?A.To show that the motor vehicle is a very dangerous invention.B.To promote understanding between careless drivers and street walker.C.To discuss traffic problems and propose possible solution.D.To warn drivers of the importance of safe driving.正确答案:D42.According to the passage, traffic accidents may be regarded as a social problem because( ).A.autos have become most destructive to mankindB.people usually pay little attention to law and moralityC.civilization brings much harm to peopleD.the lack of virtue is becoming more severe正确答案:D43.Why does the author mention the psychological condition of the driver in Paragraph 2?A.To give an example of the various reasons for road accidents.B.To show how important it is for drivers to be emotionally healthy.C.To show some of the inaccurate estimations by researchers.D.To illustrate the hidden tensions in the course of driving.正确答案:B44.Who are NOT mentioned as being responsible for the road accidents?A.Careless bicycle-riders.B.Irresponsible manufactures of automobiles.C.Irresponsible driver.D.Mindless people walking in the street.正确答案:A45.Which of the following best reflects the author’s attitude toward a future without traffic accident problems?A.Happy and rather confident.B.Surprised and very pleased.C.Disappointed and deeply worried.D.Doubtful yet still longing for.正确答案:DThe often criticized child of the industrial age, advertising, has grown as societies have become more industrialized and, therefore, more commercialized. No modern industry or company can survive without advertising. It is the vital link between the producer and the customer. If advertising were abolished, as many people have suggested it should be, the public and the companies that advertise would suffer a considerable loss. Most people think of television as an inexpensive source of entertainment. Television’s primary purpose, however, is not to provide an entertainment service,except for government-owned network, it exists in order to promote products for companies. Unless the television industry received income from advertising, watching television would be at least as expensive as going to the movies. Like television, many magazines and newspapers exist primarily to sell products.In some sensitive cases, the stories, pictures, and editorials simply attract people to buy a particular publication. Once a person begins to read, there is no escaping the advertising. Advertising not only pays for, or helps pay for, much of the mass media; it also provides the consumer with news from industry. This news functions first to influence the buyers to choose one product over another. It also informs people of new products what are important in their lives, for example, the development of salt-free butter for heart patients, or the development of tires that prevent skidding(刹车打滑)on wet pavement. Advertising does not usually increase the total number of products sold; it does help determine which company sells more of which products. Its main function is to relay news from the manufacture to the consumer. Since this is a necessary service, advertising will remain a part of people’s everyday lives and a part of every company’s budget.46.According to the passage, modern industry or company can survive( ).A.if advertising continues to existB.if the link between the customers and manufacturers remains goodC.if “the criticized child” dies outD.if societies have become more industrialized正确答案:A47.From the passage, we may figure out that “vital”in line 3, paragraph 1means( ).A.directB.importantC.onlyD.visible正确答案:B48.According to the passage, the main purpose of television industry is( ).A.to make money from customersB.to advertise for companiesC.to provide entertainment serviceD.to persuade people to buy new types of television正确答案:B49.The main function of advertising is( ).A.promoting products for companiesB.informing public of new productsC.influencing buyersD.all of the above正确答案:D50.Which of the following is NOT true about advertising?A.Advertising does not always increase the sales.B.Advertising serves to relay information from buyers to producers.C.Advertising is and will continue to be a necessary part of everyday lives.D.It is suggested that advertising should be abolished.正确答案:DAccording to airline industry statistics, almost 90% of airline accidents are not survivable or partially survivable. But passengers can increase their chances of survival by learning and following certain tips. Experts say that you should read and listen to safety instructions before takeoff and ask question if you have uncertainties. You should fasten your seat belt low on your hips and as possible. Of course, you should also know how the release mechanism of your belt operates. During takeoffs and landings you are advised to keep your feet flat on the floor. Before takeoff you should locate the nearest exit and an alternative exit and count the rows of seats between you and the exits so that you can find them in the dark if necessary. In the event that you are forewarned of a possible accident, you should put your hands on your ankles and keep your head down until the plane comes to a complete stop. If smoke is present in the cabin, you should keep your head low andcover your face with napkins, towels, or clothing. If possible, wet these for added protection against smoke inhalation. To evacuate as quickly as possible, follow crew commands and do not take personal belongings with you. Do not jump on escape slides before they are fully inflated, and when you jump, do so with your arms and legs extended in front of you. When you get to the ground, you should move away from the plane as quickly as possible, and never smoke near the wreckage.51.According to the experts, when should travelers read and listen to safety instructions?A.Before takeoff.B.In an emergency.C.Throughout the flight.D.During landings.正确答案:A52.Which exits suggested in the passage should an airline passenger locate before takeoff?A.The ones that can be found in the dark.B.The two closest to the passenger’s seat.C.The ones at the back of the plane.D.The nearest one.正确答案:D53.Judging from the passage, people have more chances to survive fires in aircraft if they( ).A.fasten their seat belt tightlyB.read airline safety statistics before takeoffC.keep their feet flat on the floorD.keep their heads low正确答案:D54.Airline passengers are specifically told NOT to( ).A.ask question about safety during the flightB.jump in any circumstancesC.carry personal belongings in an emergencyD.locate the nearest exit正确答案:C55.What is the main purpose of the passage?A.To please travelers.B.To give the information of airline industry statistics.C.To guide people to survive fires.D.To provide safety advice.正确答案:DA few years ago an American campaigner wrote a book in which he set the main points of his fascinating crusade(改革运动)-to abolish television. His book Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television is an American cult(狂热崇拜的)bestseller, and after eight editions is still generating concern and savage debate(热烈的讨论)in the USA. JerryMander, a former advertising expert is convinced that for the sake of our freedom, and mental and physical health, we should learn to live without TV. Through his advertising background Mander is aware of how much of television is concerned with advertising. He sees the planting of values for profit as “a deep, profound and disturbing act by the few against the many, for a trivial purpose”. And, even without commercials, he sees TV as disturbing because it crams people’s heads with images, which alter the way they feel and behave. Pictures formed by 300, 000 tiny dancing dots altering 30 times per second, bombard(轰击)their eyes as people scan the images 10 times a second. The brain registers stores all 30 images, but the conscious mind registers far fewer. But, argues Mander, even if you reject or doubt what you see consciously, it is too late, the crucial(极其重要的)messages have gone home. He further argues that TV is deadening experience as it is restricted to just two senses—sight and sound. “Perception(感觉,感知)is dulled and flattened, “says Mander, “when you can’t feel and smell and totally experience an event. “People are just sitting passively for up to four hours a night watching a flickering screen and listening to artificial sound. “No culture in history has spent such an enormous amount of time looking at artificial light, “says Mander, “and another worrying fact is that prolonged exposure to artificial light alters human cells, which is why it is being used for certain medical treatment. “Researchers do not know if lifelong TV exposure is a physical risk or not, but as Mander Would argue, why run the risk ? It is important that people get up now and switch off before the harm is done —they might also become brainwashed, or, who knows, they might even be approaching death.56.Four Arguments for the Elimination of Television is a book which( ).A.caused distress to many AmericansB.achieved great success overseasC.aroused nation-wide interestD.expressed the views of a fascinating man正确答案:C57.JerryMander objects to TV advertising mainly because( ).A.the underlying principles concern money-makingB.it isineffectual in getting its message acrossC.a few people are deeply disturbed by itD.the values it conveys are accepted by all正确答案:A58.Mander thinks people’s feelings and behaviour are changed because( ).A.the brain is able to make conscious decisionsB.the conscious mind is incapable of filtering images to the brainC.their eyes scan a TV screen 10 times a secondD.the conscious mind is unable to reject the images it sees正确答案:B59.By watching TV for several hours every night, Mander implies that( ).A.people would lose the use of their other sensesB.people’s experience of life would become deadenedC.people’s ability to respond to events would lessenD.people would come to depend on only two senses正确答案:C60.Mander suggests that viewing TV over long periods of time( ).A.could lead to deathB.might cause brain damageC.could endanger people’s healthD.would make cells damaged正确答案:CClozeRumor is the most【C1】______way of spreading stories—by passing them on from mouth【C2】______mouth.

Cloze Test (30 points, 1.5 for each)Directions:There are 15 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.I consider myself something of an expert on apologies. A quick temper(脾气) has _31 me with plenty of opportunities(机会) to make them. In one of my earliest 32 , my mother is telling me, “Don’t watch the33 when you say ‘I’m sorry’. Hold yourhead up and look the person in the 34 , so he’ll kn ow you 35 it.”My mother thus made the key point of a(n) 36 apology: it must be direct. You must never 37 to be doing something else. You do not 38 a pile of letters while apologizing to a person 39 in position after blaming him or her for a mistake that turned out to be your 40 . You do not apologize to a hostess(女主人), whose guest of honor you treat 41 , by sending flowers the next day without mentioning your bad 42 .One of the important things you should do for an 43 apology is readiness to 44 the responsibility(责任) for our careless mistakes. We are used to making excuses, which leaves no 45 for the other person to 46 us. Since most people are open-hearted, the no-excuse apology leaves both parties feeling 47 about themselves. That, after all, is the 48 of every apology. It 49 little whether the apologizer is wholly or only partly at fault: answering for one’s50 encourages others to take their share of the blame.31.A.provided B.mixed C.compared D.treated 32.A.dreams B.courses C.memories D.ideas 33.A.side B.ground C.wall D.bottom 34.A.mind B.soul C.face D.eye 35.A.imagine B.enjoy C.mean D.regret 36.A.useful B.successful C.equal D.basic 37.A.pretend B.forget C.refuse D.expect 38.A.hold on B.put away C.look through D.pick up 39.A.poorer B.weaker C.worse D.lower 40.A.fault B.reason C.result D.duty 41.A.cruelly B.freely C.roughly D.foolishly 42.A.manners B.excuses C.efforts D.roles 43.A.active B.effective C.extra D.easy 44.A.raise B.perform C.admit D.bear 45.A.situation B.need C.sign D.room46.A.advise B.forgive C.warn D.blame47.A.wiser B.warmer C.better D.cleverer48.A.purpose B.method C.end D.advantage49.A.cares B.matters C.depends D.remains50.A.facts B.states C.rights D.actionsIII.

Only one name can possibly suggest itself to him: that of William Shakespeare. Every Englishman has some knowledge, however slight, of the works of our greatest writer. All of us use words, phrases and quotations from Shakespeare’ s writing that have become part of the common property of English-speaking people. Most of the time we are probably unaware of the source of the words we use, rather like the old lady who was taken to see a performance of HAMLET and complained that “it was full of well-known proverbs and quotations. ”Shakespeare, more perhaps than any other writer, made full use of the great resources of the English language. Most of us use about five thousand words in our normal employment of English; Shakespeare in his works used about twenty-five thousand. There is probably no better way for a foreigner to appreciate the richness and variety of the English language than by studying the various ways in which Shakespeare used it. Such a study is well worth the effort (it is not, of course, recommended to beginners) even though some aspects of English usage, and the meaning of many words, have changed since Shakespeare’s day.61. English people_______________.A. have never discussed who is the world’s greatest poet and greatest dramatistB. never discuss about the world’s greatest poets or dramatistsC. are sure who is the world’s greatest poets and dramatist dramatistD. do not care who is the world’s greatest poets and dramatist dramatist62. Every Englishman knows____________.A. More or less about ShakespeareB. Shakespeare, but only slightlyC. all the Shakespeare’s writingsD. only the name of the greatest English writer63. Which of the following is TRUE?A. We use all the words, phrases and questions from Shakespeare’s writings.B. Shakespeare’s writings have become the property of those who are learning to speak English.C. It is likely to be true that people often do not know the origin of the words they use.D. All the words people use are taken from Shakespeare’s writings.64. “HAMLET” is _____________A. a play written by ShakespeareB. a play recommended by ShakespeareC. a play appreciated by ShakespeareD. a play people have been complaining about65. It is worthwhile to study the various ways in which Shakespeare used English because______.A. English words have changed a lot since Shakespeare’s timeB. By doing so one can be fully aware of the richness of English languageC. English words are now being used in the same way as in Shakespeare’s daysD. English words are now the same in various ways as in Shakespeare’s daysSection B Short Answer (15 points, 3 for each)Directions: Answer each of the following questions in less than 10 words.Sam and Joe were astronauts.

When the repairs were done, he tried to get back inside the spaceship. But the door was locked. He knocked but there was no answer. He knocked again, louder this time, and again, no answer came. Then he hit the door as he could and finally a voice said, “Who is there ?”“It’s me. Who else could it be?”shouted Joe. Sam let him in all right but you can imagine that Joe never asked to go on a trip with Sam again.66.

WritingChildren can’t live happily and healthily without parents, because parents have done a lot during the growth of children. From the necessities such as three meals a day to school education at different levels, parents’ love of and devotion to children are felt everywhere.As children have become grown up, they realize how much their parents have done for them and how important it is to repay their parents. Some work so hard to earn large sums of money to provide big houses for their parents. Others are always cooking delicious food or buying expensive clothes for them. Still others arrange for parents to go traveling both home and abroad and the like. Naturally all these would make their parents happy. However, as far as I am concerned, what parents need most is simply a call, a talk, or a dinner together. To tell you the truth, whenever I have spare time, I try to see them in person, have meals with them, talk with them and share with them my joys and sorrows, which offers them the greatest happiness. In a word, I think we should repay our parents with the deep love from the bottom of our hearts as they have done for us在这一学年中,不仅在业务能力上,还是在教育教学上都有了一定的提高。

C.they fail to treat teenagers with enough kindness and respect
1.When their children reach their teens,parents usually expect_________.
A.troubleB.sympathyC.congratulationsD.inspiring comments
2.In the author’s opinion,the trouble with parents is that________.
I know that teenagers can be moody(闷闷不乐)and difficult at times,but I’m 38 and I can also be difficult and moody.We worry about the future and want today’s kids to know that we care for them and that there are opportunities that wait for them.However, at the very point they set out on that journey toward adulthood we stand there watching them disapprovingly(不赞成),just waiting for them to make mistake.“just like we knew they would.”We tell them to respect themselves and to say no to drugs,yet we fail to set a positive example by treating them with kindness and consideration,demonstrating(示范)our respect for them.
专升本英语完形填空模拟题及答案
1Everyone wants to win a first-place blue ribbon, to be the best in something. Even kids in Kindergarten want that blue ribbon. In sports, I was never a blue-ribbon person. In a race, I was always 11 . In baseball I was likely to be hit on the head or drop the ball. During the spring of my kindergarten year, our class had a field trip to a park in a town about twenty miles away. Making that drive now is no big 12 but when you’re six and you’ve lived in a town of 300 people all your life, going to a big town of a couple of thousand people is really something.I don’t remember too much about it. But there was one that I will never forget —the three-legged race. The parents tied our feet together. One little boy got me for a 13 . He was the second most 14 boy in our class so he usually won at everything and I knew that with me tied to him he didn’t have a chance. And I’m sure he knew he was in trouble. The gun sounded and we were off. Some couples were falling and stumbling all around us, 15 we stayed on our feet and made it to the other side. 16 , when we turned around and headed back for home, we were in the lead! Only one couple had a chance to win, and they were a good several yards behind us.A few feet from the finish line, disaster struck: I tripped and fell. We were 17 enough that my partner could have easily dragged me across the finish line and won. But he didn’t. Instead he stopped, 18 down and helped me up — just at the other couple crossed the finish line. As a result, we received a small red ribbon for coming in second.I still remember that moment when the young boy decided that helping a friend get on her feet was more important than winning a blue ribbon. And 13 years later, I still have that little ribbon because it’s a 19 that a friend like this boy is one who really 20 .11. A. last B. first C. quick D. successful12.

Still, she could 12 take in the cruelty of her father’s words.“I know Bay’s old”, Muriel told her dad, “but he’s my favorite. Won’t you let me keep him? He won’t be a problem.”“We use horses for labor,” her dad said, “We don’t keep them as pets.”Muriel understood. However, she knew Bay was different. He had a personality all of his own. She went to Bay and 13 the old brown horse’s head. As Bay touched her hand with his nose, Muriel couldn’t imagine what the pasture would be like with out him.The snow was falling faster, and dark gray clouds were settling over the peaks. Then Muriel had an idea. She jumped onto Bay and dashed over the meadow. “We’ll 14 the sheep and show Dad how well you work.” Muriel said.The sheep 15 in a high pasture, bleating(咩咩地叫) at the storm clouds. Suddenly, Muriel heard a lone(单个的) bleat from above. She got off Bay and began to climb up the steep wall. She was almost at the top when the heel of her boot slipped into a crack. She lost her 16 and fell onto a rock. She tried to stand, but her foot hurt too much.Then Bay got into 17 under the rock. He was telling Muriel to crawl onto his back! Painfully, Muriel got onto the horseback and Bay carried her down the snow trail, 18 and carefully.On the way down, they met Dad riding his gray horse.“What happened?” he asked in a(n) 19 voice.“Bay saved me.” Muriel told him what happened.

We looked at it together wondering how wonderful these creatures were. Then I threw it aside on the beach and got back to reading my book.11 , she got the starfish back, filled her Frisbee (飞盘) with sea water and put the little fellow in there. After about an hour, she brought the Frisbee over to me to announce that the starfish was 12 . I had previously seen it as stiff as a board and so, at first, I just thought that this was a bit of her childhood 13 at work. But she pointed out that the fish was moving toward the edge of the Frisbee that was in the shadow. She then turned the Frisbee to expose the fish to the sun and very 14 the starfish made its way back to the shadow on the other side.With the logic of a girl of five years old, she then asked if she could keep it as a pet. After I had 15 why she couldn’t, I told her to throw him back into the sea. She then asked me if she could have it just for one night. I thought she had earned the right, so I 16 . She brought some fresh sea water in her bucket and 17 it as best she could.The next day, we took it down to the harbor where the water was deepest and I 18 it as far as I could out to sea. We both felt really 19 that she had saved it and given it a second chance.Sometimes, the world can indeed be changed by ordinary people, just like you, 20 the tiny and unimportant actions.

Before I could even get acquainted with my schoolmates, my family was on the move again. I became very 11 because of this.But a girl with dark skin and long shiny hair changed me. Her best characteristics are her openness and 12 . She is always smiling, like a beautiful sunflower following the sun. Without doubt I enjoyed being with her and soon we became good friends. As time went by, I grad ually became a happy girl. But this joyful period didn’t last long. We were admitted to different colleges. I felt like I had gone back to my always-on-the-move childhood. I felt 13 and helpless and I was afraid that I would 14 her as my best friend. She stayed calm and said to me: “Rain, you can achieve more than I do, so 15 to your dreams and make a big effort! Real friendship doesn’t fade and we will be best friends forever.” Maybe she didn’t realize what a great 16 she was to me at that time.However, it turned out that my concerns were well-founded (有根据的). I felt that the 17 between us was getting bigger and bigger. One day, she sent me a text message happily telling me that she had fallen in love with a handsome boy in her class.I felt happy for her, but at the same time I was secretly worried about our friendship. I 18 her several times intending to tell her to think carefully about her relationship with the boy, but I got no more messages from her. I felt sad that perhaps our friendship would not 19 . I had almost given up hope until she visited me at my campus a week later. She looked pale but was wearing the most beautiful smile. She gave me a big hug and said: “I’m sorry.

I couldn’t believe the 11 in him. In fact, he didn’t even seem like the same person.When I first knew Bill, back in college, he was one of the most easygoing, carefree people I had ever met. He was always ready to have a party. He thought 12 of going out for pizza at three o’clock in the morning or driving 50 miles to see an old movie he really liked. Bill and I were in the same dormitory in college, and life was never 13 when he was around. With him there was one wild adventure after another. Sometimes I wonder how we ever 14 to study for our exams.Last weekend I was in Houston on business, and I run into Bill in the bar at the hotel. 15 , I wasn’t even sure it was he. Was this short-haired, conservatively dressed businessman really the same pers on? I wasn’t really sure until I approached him, but it indeed was Bill. Now he works for a bank. He 16 most of the evening about his job, his new car and his house. How he had changed! Back when we were in college, the 17 thing Bill cared about were possessions. Now they seemed to be his major interest. Although I have changed quite a bit myself, somehow I never imagined Bill changing so much. My 18 of him remained the one I had formed at the time when we were college students together.I suppo se it’s foolish to expect people to remain the same, especially 19 I have changed so much myself.

Despite my 11 for greater contact with local students, unless I initiated the contact, it wouldn’t happen. Local students are not interested in contacts with the international students, because they regard us as shy, 12 and sometimes snobby (势利的)people. Of course we know that’s not true. I want to change their opinions.After 13 the problem, I put on my “confidence mask” each morning and walked around with a smile on my face. I chatted with people whenever I had the chance. I showed that I was not afraid to 14 them, and that I was worthy of being a friend.A side-effect of my 15 confidence was that my emotions occasionally broke down Only in the 16 of my room, where no one could see, would I reveal my real emotions. All the rejections, funny looks, and 17 behind my back calling me a weirdo(古怪的人)melted into tears. Once that was done, I would put on my confidence mask once again and start a new day.It finally worked. My name became known throughout the school as I appeared to be 18 and active. Slowly, I discovered that I no longer needed to put on my confidence mask. I had real friends. Instead of dragging myself to school and 19 to be happy, I was truly happy. I could not believe it when I was elected to the student government as Deputy Head boy----the first international student to receive the title.From my experience in New Zealand, I believe one thing will always be true: If you try your best to reach your goals, you’ll achieve your 20 dreams.11.
