Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mistakes are the things that nobody wants, but we still make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. Some are about work or jobs. But most mistakes are about people. "Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?" "When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?" "And why didn´t Andy pick up that I was friendly just because 1 had a car?" When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it´s too late. Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. We need to listen and think for some time. And if we don´t really listen we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, "You´re a lucky dog" that´s being friendly. But "lucky dog"? There´s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn´t see it himself. But bringing in the "dog" bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn´t think you deserve your luck. "Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for" is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn´t important. It´s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven´t got a date for Saturday night. How can you tell the real meaning behind someone´s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.第12题This passage is mainly about______.A.how to interpret what people sayB.what to do when you listen to others talkingC.how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with peopleD.why we go wrong with people sometimes第13题According to the author, the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that______.A.we fail to listen carefully when they talkB.people tend to be annoyed when we check what they sayC.people usually state one thing but means anotherD.we tend to doubt what our friends say第14题In the sentence "Maybe he doesn´t see it himself" in the second paragraph, the pronoun "it" refers to______.A.being friendlyB.a bit of envyC.lucky dogD.your luck第15题When we listen to a person talking, the most important thing for us to do is______.A.notice the way the person is talkingB.take a good look at the person talkingC.mind his tone, his posture and the look in his eyesD.examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner, his tone and his posture第16题The author most probably is a______.A.teacherB.philosopherC.psychologistD.doctor上一题下一题(17~21/共10题)ComprehensionDirections:Read the following two texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. SMS (Short Message Service) gradually becomes the main service for cell phone users for its great charming. In addition, the development of mobile communications technology and service has created favorable condition for SMS. For example, MMS, multi-media messaging service, is a new type of message service on the basis of SMS. It allows transmission of multi-media messages between cell phone and computer, as well as between cell phones. Communication with SMS is quite convenient. You can write a message after carefully thinking what you want to say with many words without worrying about money. Actually, SMS enjoys the absolute majority utilization among mobile service. In China, the number of short message transmitted is 2,200 billion in 2003. People, however, feel angry and anxious sometimes while enjoying SMS. More and more rubbish short messages that contain such content as erotic, gambling, or advertising are sent to cell phone users, which seriously violated the user´s privacy. Because the sender of these rubbish short messages do not take into account whether people need them or not, and donot get the permission from users to transmit these rubbish short messages to them. As we know, everyone has the right to communication freely with other people, and the right to refuse communication with people they don´t like to. But these rights were not guaranteed in SMS. Users do not receive rubbish short messages on a voluntary basis. If you fell angry and disgusted with some rubbish message to your cell phone, and do not want to see it again, that means such message is in contradiction with your wish, and violates your privacy. MMS also promote the transmission of unhealthy information on the Internet from computer to cell phone, which must extend the scope and influence of rubbish short message. The rapid development of mobile communications may suffer a lot if there is no change in the way of transmitting SMS. More and more users of cell phone are disturbed by rubbish short messages , and their privacy is violated by mobile communications service, which is also not a benefit for the development of mobile communications service.第17题______has created a good condition tor SMS.A.Multi-media messaging serviceB.Mobile communications technologyC.Mobile communications serviceD.Mobile communications technology and service第18题By MMS, short messages can be transmitted except between______.A.cellphonesputersC.cell phone and computerD.mobile phone and computer第19题People sometimes don´t enjoy SMS because______.A.SMS also sends rubbish short messagesB.SMS violates their privacyC.SMS does not consider whether people need it or notD.SMS doesn´t get people´s permission to send them messages第20题MMS may violate people´s privacy because______.A.SMS doesn´t take measures to forbidden itB.SMS doesn´t guarantee people´s privacyC.it makes rubbish short messages transmission easierD.it extends the scope and influence of rubbish short message第21题From the text we know that______.A.people should refuse rubbish short messagesB.SMS should think of a way to get rid of rubbish short messagesC.MMS should not allow people to send messages from the Internet to cell phonesD.SMS benefits from rubbish short messages上一题下一题(22~26/共5题)ComprehensionDirections:Read the texts from a magazine article in which five people talk about tipping in a restaurant. For questions 36-40, match the name of each person to one of the statements (A-G) given below. JackEvery time you raise a hot-button issue, such as the in-laws or money, does your husband suddenly clam up? Take heart, more than 80 percent of the time, it"s the wife who brings up sticky marital issues, while the husband tries to avoid discussing them. This isn"t a symptom of a troubled marriage-it is true in most happy marriages.LilianI watched many couples fight about one major issue. After four years , 69 percent of these successfully married couples were still fighting about the same problem. When you marry, you automatically inherit your set of unresolvable relationship problems. If you married somebody else, you"d have a different set.PatrickYou"ll often hear that staying in a bad marriage is worse for everybody concerned-that getting divorced. That may be true if your home is so riddled with hostility it"s like a war zone. But I found that 75 percent of couples who rated their marriages as miserable but stayed married were happy five years later.BrandyEvery couple experiences disappointment as initial romance and passion fade and they discover all their differences. He doesn"t do enough housework. She"s too emotional. He watches too much TV. She"s too lenient with the kids. We usually think the strongest marriages are those that survive major traumas, but frequently, it is those daily annoyances that eat away at a marriage. AnthonyWhat if she is in corporate sales and he is a musician? She prizes safety and security while he longs for adventure? She loves watching football at home while he is a rover with a passion for sailing? Less resilient couples might see such dramatic differences as grounds for divorce. But paradoxically, it is this unbridled independence that holds marriage together.Now match each of the persons with the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.StatementsA. Deal with little things.B. Silence doesn"t spell trouble.C. Take a leap of faith.D. Divorce is not the best solution.E. We don"t have to solve every problem.F. Relive beautiful moments.G. Love your differences.第22题Jack第23题Lilian第24题Patrick第25题Brandy第26题Anthony上一题下一题(27~31/共15题)Directions:Read the following text from which 10 words have been removed.

In law school, students learn how to analyze and present problems for decision. They study the constitution, treaties, court decision , as well as prior ruling and precedents.【B3】______ In some states, instead of going to a law school, a person may experience a long period of training in a law office【B4】______ This method was more popular many years ago when education facilities were few and the body of law was small. After a person has completed formal law-school training, he must take an examination, which is known as the bar examination, to enable the state to check whether he has learn the fundamentals of the law. Besides, the applicant must show he is of good character.【B5】______ The applicant is interviewed, and after his character is approved, he is then licensed to practice law.[A] Most of a lawyer´ s work is carried out outside the courtroom.[B] The reliance on precedents permits us to plan our affairs with certainty because we can be reasonably sure of the results of our acts.[C] he helps people keep out of troubles as well as helping those who are already in trouble.[D] The lawyers should work hard to pass the bar examination.[E] where he learns the various techniques and the basic knowledge that others get in a law school.[F] A committee appointed by the court checks home training, college training and past behavior.[G] They take tests to prove their qualifications and willingness to become a lawyer.第27题【B1】第28题【B2】第29题【B3】第30题【B4】第31题【B5】上一题下一题(32~41/共15题)Directions:Read the following text from which 10 words have been removed.

The date—520, sounds similar to "wo ai ni", or "I love you" in Chinese.Take Shanghai for example, 3919 couples got their marriage certificates—about 10 times the usual daily figure. And in Suzhou, 2357 couples tied the knot, easily surpassing the number on Valentine"s Day.While most people can appreciate the romantic connotations behind the special date, some men moan that there are too many days to remember in a year.Chen Chengfeng, who has been married for about two years, says he has at least five "important occasions" to celebrate every year."My wife"s birthday, Valentine"s Day, our wedding anniversary, May 20 and the day when we started dating. This is so crazy. It is a torture for men. It makes me nervous every time as I have to think what presents to buy.

Write an essay in about 120 words, in which you should summarize the key points of the text and make comments on them. Try to use you own words. You might think that good-looking men have every advantage in life. But new study suggests being handsome may not always work in a man´ s favour—at least when it comes to his career. The research claims that attractive men are less likely to be given a job in a competitive workplace because they intimidate bosses. "It´ s not always an advantage to be pretty," says Marko Pitesa, an assistant professor at the University of Maryland. ´´It can backfire if you are perceived as a threat. " Interestingly, in Pitesa´ s study, it was male attractiveness in particular, rather than female beauty, that made the most difference. If the interviewer expected to work with the candidate as part of a team, then he preferred goodlooking men. However, if the interviewer saw the candidate as a potential competitor, the interviewer discriminated in favour of unattractive men. The results suggest that interviewers were not blinded by beauty, and instead calculated which candidate would further their own career. "The dominant theoretical perspective in the social sciences for several decades has been that biases and discrimination are caused by irrational prejudice," Pitesa says. "The way we explain it here, pretty men just seem more competent, so it is actually subjectively rational to discriminate for or against them. " On a deeper level, she adds,the behaviour remains irrational, since there´ s no evidence that a real link exists between looks and competence.上一题交卷交卷答题卡答案及解析(1~3/共11题)Listening ComprehensionDirections: This section is designed to test your ability to understand spoken English.

全国英语等级考试（PETS）三级全真模拟试题二（5）

Text 3The aim of the teacher is to get his pupils as quickly as possible over the period in which each printed symbol is looked at for its shape, and arrive at the stage when the pupil looks at words a phrases, for their meaning, almost without noticing the shapes of these separate letters.When a good reader is at work, he does not look at letters, nor even at words, one by or however quickly; he takes in the meaning of two, three, or four words at a time, in a single moment. Watch carefully the eyes of a person who is reading, and it will be seen that they do not travel smoothly along the lines of print, but they move by jumps separated by very short stops. The eyes a very good reader move quickly, taking long jumps and making very short halts (停顿 ); the eyes of a poor reader move more slowly, taking only short jumps and stopping longer at each halt. Some times, when he meets a difficulty, he even goes backwards to see again what has already be looked at once.The teacher ' 9 task is therefore clear: it is to train his pupils to take in several words at a glance (one "eye jump") and remove the necessity forgoing backwards to read something a second time.This shows at once that letter-by-letter, or syllable-by-syllable (⾳节) , or word-by-word reading, with the finger pointing to the word, carefully fixing each one in turn, is wrong. It is wrong because such a method ties the pupil' s eye down to a very short jump. Moreover, a very. short jump too short to provide any meaning or sense; and it will be found that having struggled with three four words separately, the pupil has to look at them again, all together and in one group, in order get the meaning of the whole phrase.56. Which of the following is closest in meaning to the first paragraph?[ A ] Pupils should be trained to reach quickly the stage of reading without having toconcentrate on the separate symbols.[B] Pupils should look at each printed symbol for its meaning as well as for its shape.[ C ] Teachers should help their pupils avoid looking at the shape of the printed symbols.[D] Teachers should tell their pupils the different stages of their study.57. In a single moment, a good reader picks up_________.[ A ] several words [ B ] several phrases[ C ] several sentences [ D ] several lines58. According to the passage, which of the following is FALSE?[A] The eyes of a good reader make short halts and long jumps.[ B] The eyes of a bad reader take in the meaning of one word at a time.[ C] The eyes of a bad reader take only short jumps.[D] The eyes of a good reader move steadily.59. One may have to read something a second time if_________.[ A ] there is enough time [ B ] one reads too fast[ C ] the passage is very long [D] one reads word by word60. The main idea of the last paragraph is that _________.[A] word-by-word reading is highly inefficient[ B ] the pupil ' s eyes should focus on groups of syllables instead of single syllables[ C ] pupils have to move their eyes back and forth when reading[D] finger-pointing in reading helps the pupil concentrate on meaningPart BDirections:Read the following article in which five people talk about their ideas of marriage. For questions 61 to 65 , match name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.LisaSometimes I think that successful marriages are an endangered societal species. It seems as though every time I turn around, another couple I know is getting divorced. It' s a shame because marriage is very important. I believe that if people put more effort into making their marriages work, there would be fewer divorces. Marriage takes certain qualities to make it a success, such as responsibility and a sense of humor. If partners all understand this, more happy marriages will be maintained.WendyOne thing I think that is important to successful marriage is that you should not always think of yourself. My husband and I have stayed happily for about ten years. He makes me want to do things for him because of his generous nature. I know there are many times he would rather be reading, relaxing , or working on the car, but he only does something for himself when all the household chores are done and the kids have been taken care of. In return, I bake him all his favorite home-made cakes and cookies and try to go out of my way to do special things for him. I feel very fortunate to have married him.CatherineMy husband is my best friend, with whom I share most of my thought. We find it easy to talk about most things, so we don ' t have many secrets from each other. When my mother makes him upset , he tells me about it. Things like that are easier to deal with when they ' re out in the open than when they're kept inside. Thus, we have a very open, comfortable relationship.ArleneI feel sorry for what my divorced friends have lost. No matter how earnestly the former spouses try to "keep in touch", no matter how generous the visiting privileges for the parent who does not win custody of the children, the continuity of their lives has been broken. The years they spent together have been cut off from the rest of their lives; they are an isolated memory, no more integral to their past than a snapshot.KelicrThe very first trick to a happy marriage is to be a person of yourself who does not imagine a husband is necessary to make you magically complete. Successful partnerships are not between those who cannot live without each other, but between those who can live with each other. There is no room even in daydreams for the stupid idea that there is on earth only one mate intended for another.Now match each of the persons to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements61. Lisa [A] Being unselfish is very important to make a marriage work.62. Wendy [B] Becoming a person of independence and pride leads tosuccessful marriage.[C] Being able to communicate makes our marriage happy.63. Catherine[D] Divorced people will live an incomplete life.[E] Marriage is the result of extended love.[F] Divorce results from a lack of responsibility.65. Keller [G] Divorces can be avoided.Section IV Writing(40 minutes)You should write your responses to both parts on ANSWER SHEET 2.Part A66. You are to write a composition of about 150 words about Family Life in China. In the composition you should write about:1 ) difference between family life in China and family life abroad;2 ) pride of Chinese families on their hospitalities;3 ) unification of Chinese families.Part B67.

2020 年全国公共英语等级考试PETS 三级模拟试题TextMost young people enjoy physical activities, walking,cycling, football, or mountaineering.These who have a passion 26 climbing high and difficult mountains are often 27 with astonishment. Why are menand women 28 to suffer cold and hardship, and to 29 on high mountains? This astonishment is caused, probably, by thedifference between mountaineering and other forms ofactivities 30 which men give their leisure.There are no man-made rules, as there are for 31 as golfand football. There are, of course, rules of different kindswhich it would be dangerous to 32 , but it is this freedom fromman-made rules 33 makes mountaineering attractive to many people. Those who climb mountains are free to their own 34 .If we 35 mountaineering with other more familiar sports,we might think that one big difference is 36 mountaineering isnot a “team work ” . However, it is only ourmisunderstanding. There are, in fact, no ：matches” 37“teams” of climbers, but when climbers are on a rock facelinked by a rope on which their lives may 38 , obviously,there is teamwork.A mountain climber knows that he may have to fightwith natural 39 that ate stronger and more powerful than man.His sport requires high mental and 40 qualities.A mountain climber 41 to improve on skill year after year.A skier is probably past his best by the age of thirty, and most international tennis champions 42 in their early twenties. But it is not 43 for men of fifty or sixty to climbthe highest mountains in the Alps.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text IFifteen years ago, I entered the Boston Globe, which wasa temple to me then. It wasn ’t easy getting hired. But once you were there, I found, you were in.Globe jobs were for life-guaranteed until retirement. For15 years I had prospered there—moving from an ordinary reporter to foreign correspondent and finally to senioreditor. I would have a lifetime of security is I struck withit. Instead, I had made a decision to leave. I entered myboss’s office. Would he rage? I wonde red. He had a famous temper. “Matt, we have to have a talk, ” I began awkwardly.“I came to the Globe when I was twenty - four. Now I ’m forty. There’s a lot I want to do in life. I ’m resigning. ” “To another paper? ” he asked. I reached into my coat pocket, butdidn ’t say anything. I handed him a letter that explained everything. It said that I was leaving to start a new mediacompany. We were at a rare turning point in history. I wantedto be directly engaged in the change. “I ’m glad for you, ”he said, quite ou t of my expectation. “I just came from a board of directors meeting and it was seventy-five percent discouraging news. Some of that we can deal with. But much ofit we can ’t, ” he went on. “I wish you all the luck in the world, ” he concluded. “And if it doesn ’t work out, remember, your star is always high here. ”Then I went out of his office, walking through thenewsroom for more good-byes. Everybody was saying congratulations. Everybody—even though I’d be risking all on an unfamiliar venture ： all the financial security I hadcarefully built up.Later, I had a final talk with Bill Taylor, chairman andpublisher of the Boston Globe. He had turned the Globe into abillion- dollar property.“I’m resigning, Bill,”I said. He listened while I gave him the st ory. He wasn ’t looking angry or dismayed either. After a pause, he said,“Golly, I wish I were in your shoes.”46.From the passage we know that the Globe is a famous_______.[A]newspaper [B] magazine[C]temple [ D ] church47.If the writer stayed with the Globe _________.[ A] he would be able to realize his lifetime dreams.[ B] he would let his long-cherished dreams fade away.[ C ] he would never have to worry about his future life.[ D] he would never be allowed to develop his ambitions.48. The writer wanted to resign because _________.[A] he had serious trouble with his boss.[ B ] he got underpaid at his job for the Globe.[ C ] he wanted to be engaged in the new media industry.[ D ] he had found a better paid job in apublishing house.49.When the writer decided to resign the Globe wasfaced with _______.[ A ] a trouble with its staff members[ B ] a shortage of qualified reporters[ C ] an unfavorable business situation[ D ]an uncontrollable business situation50. By“：I wish I were in your shoes. ”(in the last paragraph) Bill Taylor meant that _______.[ A ] the writer was to fail.[ B] the writer was stupid[ C ] he would do the same if possible[D] he would reject the writer’s requestText 2Do you find it very difficult and painful to get up inthe morning? This might be called laziness, but Dr.Kleitman has a new explanation. He has proved thateveryone has a daily energy cycle.During the hours when your labor through your work youmay say that you ’re “hot ”. That ’s true. The time of daywhen you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at its peak. For some people the peak comesduring the forenoon. For others it comes in the afternoon or evening. No one has discovered why this is so, but it leads’ll be to such familiar monologues as ：“Get up, Peter! You latefor work again! ” The possible explanation to thetrouble is that Peter is at his temperature-and-energy peakin the evening. Much family quarrelling ends when husbandsand wives realize what these energy cycles mean, andwhich cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle, but you can learn tomake your life fit if better. Habit can help, Dr. Kleitman believes. Maybe you ’re sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay uplate anyway. Counteract your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to. Ifyour energy is low in the morning, but you have an importantto do early in the day, rise before your usual hour. Thiswon’t change your cycle, but you ’ll get up steam and workbetter at your low point.Get off to a slow start which saves your energy. Get up with a leisurely yawn and stretch. Sit on the edge of the bed a minute before putting your feet on the floor. Avoid the troublesome search for clean clothes by laying them out the night before. Whenever possible, do routine work in the afternoon and save requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.51.If a person finds getting up early a problem,most probably ________.[A] he is a lazy person.[ B ] he refuses to follow his own energy cycle.[C]he is not sure when his energy is low.[D]he is at his peak in the afternoon or evening.52.Which of the following may lead to familyquarrels according to the passage?[AJ Unawareness of energy cycles.[B] Familiar monologues.[C]A change in a family member’s energy cycle.[D]Attempts to control the energy cycle of otherfamily members.53.If one wants to work efficiently at his low pointin the morning, he should __________.[A]change his energy cycle[B] overcome his laziness[C]get up earlier than usual[D] go to bed earlier54.You are advised to rise with a yawn andstretch because it will __________.[A] help to keep your energy for the day’s work.[B]help you to control your temper early in the day[C]enable you to concentrate on your routine work[D]keep your energy your energy cycle under control all day55. Which of the following statements is NOT true?[A]Getting off to work with a minimum effort helps save one’s energy.[B]Dr. Kletman explains why people reach their peaks at different hours of day.[C]Habit helps a person adapt to his own energy cycle.[D]Children have energy cycles, too.Text 3There was one thought that air pollution affected only the area immediately around large cities with factories and heavy automobile traffic. At present, we realize that although these are the areas with the worst air pollution,the problem is literally worldwide. On several occasions over the past decade, a heavy cloud of air pollution has covered the east of the United States and brought health warnings inrural areas away from any major concentration of manufacturing and automobile traffic. In fact, the veryclimate of the entire earth may be infected by air pollution. Some scientists consider that the increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the air resulting from the burning offossil fuels (coal and oil) is creating a “greenhouse effect ”—conserving heat reflected from the earth and raising the world's average temperature. If this view iscorrect and the world's temperature is raised only a few degrees, much of the polar ice cap will melt and cities suchas New York, Boston, Miami, and New Orleans will be in water.Another view, less widely held, is that increasing particular matter in the atmosphere is blocking sunlight and lowering the earth's temperature—a result that would be equally disastrous. A drop of just a few degrees could create something close to a new ice age, and would mane agriculture difficult or impossible in many of our top farming areas.Today we do not know for sure that either of these conditionswill happen (though one recent government report drafted by experts in the field concluded that the greenhouse effect is very possible) Perhaps, if we are lucky enough, the two tendencies will offset each other and the world's temperature will stay about the same as it is now. Driven by economic profits, people neglect the damage on our environment causedby the“advanced civilization”. Maybe the air pollution is the price the human beings have to pay for their development. But is it really worthwhile?56.As pointed out at the beginning of the passage,people used to think that air pollution _______.[ A ] cause widespread damage in the countryside[ B ] affected the entire eastern half of the UnitedStates[ C ] had damaged effect on health[ D ] existed merely in urban and industries areas57. As to the greenhouse effect, the author __________.[ A ] share the same view with the scientist.[ B ] is uncertain of its occurrence[ C ] rejects it as being ungrounded[ D ] thinks that it will destroy the world soonbe58. The word“offset” in the second paragraph couldreplaced by _________.[ A] slip into [ B ] make up for[ C ] set up [ D ] catch up with59. It can be concluded that ____________.[ A ] raising the world's temperature only a few degreeswould not do much harm to life on earth.[ B] lowering the world's temperature merely a fewdegrees would lead major farming areas to disaster.[C]almost no temperature variations have occurredover the past decade.[D]the world's temperature will remain constant in theyears to come.60. This passage is primarily about __________.[A]the greenhouse effect ⋯⋯[ B ] the burning of fossil fuels ⋯⋯[C]the potential effect of air pollution.[ D] the likelihood of a new ice age.Part BDirections：Read the following article in which five people talk about their ideas of dieting. For questions 61 to 65 , -match name of each speaker to one of the statements (A to C ) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.AbbeyYou can always recognize dieters from the sour expression on their faces. They spend most of their time turning their noses up at food. They are forever consulting calorie charts, gazing at themselves in mirrors, and leaping on to weighing-machines in the bathroom. They spend a lifetime fighting a losing battle against spreading hips, protruding tummies and double chins. What a miserable lot dieters are!MarlinI began making some dietary and lifestyles changes during my second year of college and have been eating this way ever since. I like the way I feel when I don't eat animal foods so much more than the pleasure I used to get from eating them. I have much more energy; I need less sleep; I feel calmer; Ican maintain an ideal body weight without worrying about how much I eat, and I can think more clearly.MaggieDuring my first year of college, I gained forty pounds when I began throwing the javelin. For the next twenty years, I carried all of this extra weight and kidded myself that Iwas in good shape since that's what I weighed in college. Now that I've lost all that extra weight, I feel great! Peoplesay all the time, "Well, how do you live without eating cheeseburgers or this or that?" and I say, "You just don't.It' s not even an option. It's not that hard once you get onit. "BelindaIf you are on a diet, you're always hungry. You can't be hungry and happy at the same time. All the horrible concoctions you eat instead of food leave you permanently dissatisfied. A complete food it may be, but not quite as complete as juicy steak. So at least three times a day you will be exposed to temptation. How miserable to watch others tucking into piles of mouth-watering food while you munch a water biscuit and sip unsweetened lemon juice! And if hunger just proves too much for you, in the end you will lash out and devour five huge guilt-inducing cream cakes at a sitting.Then things will turn out to be even worse.WoodI went on diet when my doctor told me that my blood pressure tended to be high. Only at that time did I realizethe danger of being overweight. Since I began making dietarychanges in 1982, eating this way has become increasingly accepted.

The 28 student is considered to be 29 who is motivated to learn for the sake of 30, not the one interested only in getting high grades. Sometimes homework is returned 31 brief written comments but without a grade. Even if agrade is not given, the student is 32 for learning the material assigned. When research is 33, the professor expects the student to take it actively and to complete it with 34 guidance. It is the 35 responsibility to find books, magazines, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain 36 a university library works; they expect students, 37 graduate students, to be able to exhaust the reference 38 in the library. Professors will help students who need it, but 39 that their students should not be 40 dependent on them. In the United States, professors have many other duties 41 teaching, such as administrative or research work. 42, the time that a professor can spend with a student outside of class is 43.

Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets.Text 1The dog, called Prince, was an intelligent animal and a slave to Williams. From morning till night, when Williams was at home, Prince never left his sight, practically ignoring all other members of the family. The dog had a number of clearly defined duties, for which Williams had patiently trained him and, like the good pupil he was, Prince lived for the chance to demonstrate his abilities.When Williams wanted to put on his boots, he would murmur “Boots”and within seconds the dog would drop them at his feet. At nine every morning, Prince ran off to the general store in the village, returning shortly not only with Williams' daily paper but with a half ounce packet of Williams' favorite tobacco, John Rhiney's Mixed. A gun dog by breed, Prince possessed a large soft mouth specially evolved for the safe carrying of hunted creatures, so the paper and the tobacco came to no harm, never even showing a tooth mark.Williams was a railwayman, an engine driver, and he wore a blue uniform which smelled of oil and oil fuel. He had to work at odd times —“days”, “late days”or “nights”. Over the years Prince got to know these periods of work and rest, knew when his master would leave the house and return, and the dog did not waste this knowledge. If Williams overslept, as he often did, Prince barked at the bedroom door until he woke, much to the annoyance of the family. On his return, Williams' slippers were brought to him, the paper and tobacco too if previously undelivered.A curious thing happened to Williams during the snow and ice of last winter. One evening he slipped and fell on the icy pavement somewhere between the village and his home. He was so badly shaken that he stayed in bed for three days; and not until he got up and dressed again did he discover that he had lost his wallet containing over fifty pounds. The house was turned upside down in the search, but the wallet was not found. However, two days later—that was five days after the fall—Prince dropped the wallet into William's hand. Very muddy, stained and wet through, the little case still contained fifty three pounds, Williams' driving license and a few other papers. Where the dog had found it no one could tell, but found it he had and recognized it probably by the faint oily smell on the worn leather.46. How did the dog perform his duties?［A］He was delighted to show them off.［B］He did his best but was not often successful.［C］He did them quickly to get them over.［D］He had few opportunities to do them.47. What does the passage tell us about gun dogs?［A］They are the fastest runners of all dogs.［B］Their teeth are removed when they are young.［C］They can carry birds, etc. without hurting them.［D］They breed well, producing many young dogs.48. As a result of Williams' work .［A］he did not get enough sleep［B］there was an oily smell from his clothes［C］the dog grew accustomed to travelling by train ［D］the dog was confused about the time of the day 49. It upset Williams' wife and family when .［A］Williams had to go to work at night［B］the dog made too much noise in the house［C］Williams made them all get up early［D］the dog would not let them see the newspaper50. Williams did not realise his loss for several days because .［A］he trusted the dog to find the wallet［B］he was unconscious all that time［C］he thought the wallet was in the house［D］he had no occasion to feel in his pocketsText 2About ten men in every hundred suffer from colour blindness in some way; women are luckier only about one in two hundred is affected in this manner. There are different forms of colour blindness.A man may not be able to see deep red.He may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green. Sometimes a person cannot tell the difference between blue and green. In rare cases an unlucky man may see everything in shades of green—a strange world indeed.In certain occupations colour blindness can be dangerous and candidates are tested most carefully. For example, when fighting at night, soldiers use lights of flares to signal to each other. A green light may mean “Advance”and a red light may mean “Danger! Keep back!”, You can see what will happen if somebody thinks that red is green! Colour blindness in human beings is a strange thing to explain. In a single eye there are millions of very small things called “cones”, These help to see in a bright light and to tell the difference betweencolours. There are also millions of “rods”but these are used for seeing when it is nearly dark. They show us shape but not colour. Wait until it is dark tonight, then go outside. Look round you and try to see what colors you can recognize.Birds and animals which hunt at night have eyes which contain few or no cones at all, so they cannot see colours. As far as we know, bats and adult owls cannot see colours at all only light and dark shapes. Similarly cats and dogs cannot see colours as well as we can.Insects can see ultra violet rays which are invisible to us, and some of them can even see X rays. The wings of a moth may seem grey and dull to us, but to insects they may appear beautiful, showing colours which we cannot see. Scientists know that there are other colours around us which insects can see but which we cannot see. Some insects have favorite colours. Mosquitoes like blue, but do not like yellow. A red light will not attract insects but a blue lamp will.51. Among people who suffer from colour blindness, .［A］some may see everything in shades of green［B］few can tell the difference between blue and green［C］few may think that red, orange and yellow are all shades of green［D］very few may think that everything in the world is in green52. When millions of rods in our eyes are at work in darkness we can see.［A］colours only［B］shapes and colours［C］shapes only［D］darkness only53. According to the passage, bats and adult owls cannot see colours.［A］because they hunt at night［B］because they cannot see light［C］because they have no cones and rods［D］because they have no cones54. According to the passage, dogs and cats.［A］as well as human beings can not see some colours［B］have fewer cones than human beings［C］have less rods than human beings［D］can see colours as well as human beings55. Which of the following is not true about insects?［A］Insects can see more colours than human beings.［B］Insects can see ultra violet rays which are invisible to men.［C］All insects have their favorite colours.［D］The world is more colorful to insects than to human beings.Text 3A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. Aggressive, destructive, sadistic impulses every child has and, on the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear facedand mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girl friend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child had ever believed that it was.56. In the writer's opinion, a fairy tale .［A］cannot be read to children without variation because they find no pleasure in it［B］will be more effective if it is adapted by parents［C］must be made easy so that children can read it on their own［D］is no longer needed in developing children's power of memory57. According to the passage, some people who are openlyagainst fairy tales argue that .［A］fairy tales are harmful to children in that they show the primitive cruelty in children［B］fairy tales are harmful to children unless they have been adapted by their parent［C］fairy tales increase a tendency to sadism in children［D］children who have read fairy stories pay little attention to the study of history and mechanics58. In the writer's opinion to rid children of fears, fairy stories should be.［A］told only once［B］repeated many times［C］told in a realistic setting［D］presented vividly59. In the writer's opinion, fairy stories .［A］have a very bad effect on children［B］have advantages in cultivating children's imagniativity［C］help children to come to terms with fears［D］harm children greatly60. According to the passage, which of the following statement is not true about fairy stories?［A］If children indulged his fantasies in fairy tales instead ofbeingtaught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics the world should be full of madman.［B］Children can often be greatly terrified when the fairy story is heard for the first time.［C］Fairy tales may beneficially direct children's aggressive, destructive and sadistic impulses.［D］Fairy tales are no more than stories about imaginary figures with magical powers which has nothing to do with external world.Part BDirections:Read the texts from an article in which five people talked about smoking. For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each person (1 to 5) to one of the statements (A to G) given below. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.HadleyIf you smoke and you still don't believe that there's a definite link between smoking and bronchial troubles, heart disease and lung cancer, then you are certainly deceiving yourself. Just have a look at those people in hospital with these diseases and count how many of them do not smoke, you may be surprised at the number. Even thesefew people might be passive smokers without realising it.RandyTobacco is a wonderful commodity to tax. It's almost like a tax on our daily bread. In tax revenue alone, the government of Britain collects enough from smokers to pay for its entire educational facilities. So while the authorities point out ever so carefully that smoking may be harmful, it doesn't do to shout too loudly about it.SampsonThe advertising of tobacco is one of the problems. We are never shown pictures of real smokers coughing up their lings early in the morning. That would never do. The advertisements always depict handsome, clean shaven young men. They suggest it is manly to smoke, even positively healthy! Smoking is associated with the great openair life, with beautiful girls, true love and togetherness.What utter nonsense!RowleyOf course tobacco can help government to raise money. However, while money is eagerly collected in vast sums with one hand, it is paid out in increasingly vaster sums with the other. Enormous amounts are spent on cancer research and on efforts to cure people suffering from the disease. Countless valuable lives are lost. In the long run, there is no doubt that everybody would be muchbetter off if smoking were banned altogether.BerniceSmoking can provide constant consolation. When I feel worried or nervous, I just get a cigarette and everything seem to get right. After a day's hard work, the thing I want to do most is smoking. It can be even better with a cup of coffee. It's so enjoyable and relaxing that it relieves stresses of every day life. So why bother to ban it and take the pleasure from us.Now match each of the people (1 to 5) to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.公共英语三级考试模拟题及答案（1）相关内容:。

全国英语等级考试全真模拟卷第三级(附光盘)

全国英语等级考试全真模拟卷第三级(附光盘)全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1National English Test Level 3 - A Student's ViewWow, the National English Level Test Level 3! That sounds like a really big deal. I remember when my teacher first told our class about it. We had just finished our English lesson, and she said we would be taking this important test soon. A bunch of my classmates got really excited, but I was a little nervous. Tests can be scary, especially really important ones!My teacher could see some of us were worried, so she explained what the test was all about. She said it's a way for students like us to show how good our English skills are. The test has listening, reading, writing, and speaking sections to check all the different things we've learned in English class.The listening part sounded kind of fun. The teacher said we'd hear conversations and stories, then have to answer questions about them. In class, we always enjoyed the listening exercises, especially the funny dialogues. My best friend Lily and I would try to imitate the voices and make each other laugh.Then there's the reading section, which is about understanding passages. That doesn't sound too bad, since we read lots of stories and articles for homework anyway. Though I'm a little slower at reading than some of my classmates. I'll have to practice more.Writing is one part I'm kind of nervous about. We'll have to write a short essay on a topic they give us. Essays are hard! You have to organize all your thoughts and make sure your grammar and spelling are perfect. Miss Lee has been helping us practice timed writings though, so that should help.The speaking section might be the trickiest for me. We'll have to answer questions and describe pictures out loud. I sometimes stumble over words when I get nervous. But Miss Lee said the test instructors are really nice, so maybe that will help me relax. Plus, we've done lots of partner speaking activities to prepare.To get ready, Miss Lee had us do some practice test materials. They came with a CD too, so we could listen to the audio at home. The practice tests showed us what types of questions would be on the real test. There were multiple choice questions, fill in the blanks, and short answers. It was good practice, but some of the questions were pretty hard!A couple weeks before the test, my parents got me some other sample test books from the bookstore to work through. I spent a lot of time reviewing vocabulary, grammar points, and doing listening exercises with my headphones on. The more I practiced, the more confident I started to feel.Finally, the day of the big test came! A bunch of kids from other schools came to take it too. We all had to sit at desks spread out in the school auditorium. It was a little intimidating with so many people around. The nice test teachers passed out the test booklets and CDs, then explained very clearly how everything would work.The listening section was just as I expected - we heard conversations and stories through headphones, then had to answer comprehension questions. I missed a few, but I tried my best. The reading passages were interesting topics like animals and sports, which made them easier to understand. Phew, made it through those two sections!We took a short break before starting the writing section. I had a hard time coming up with ideas for my essay at first, but then I remembered the tips for brainstorming from class. Once I got my thoughts sorted out, the actual writing went pretty smoothly. Hopefully I organised it well enough!Then came speaking time. The teachers called students one-by-one into another room to do the speaking section. When it was my turn, I felt a little shaky but took a deep breath. The test teacher was so friendly and encouraging, which helped me relax a lot. We talked about some pictures, answered hypothetical questions, and did a role-play. It wasn't as scary as I thought it would be.Phew, after the speaking part was done, the whole test was finally over! I felt so relieved, but also proud for giving it my all. It was tough, but our preparation in class with Miss Lee really paid off. I can't wait to get my results back and see how I did. Hopefully I score high enough to get that fancy certificate!I'd definitely recommend the National English Test Level 3 to other students. It's challenging for sure, but taking it was a great way to show off all the English I've learned so far. Plus, it helped me get much more confident at reading, writing, listening and speaking. Maybe I'll aim for Level 4 next year - gotta keep leveling up those English skills! If I can make it through that tough test, I'll be like a real pro. Just call me the English master!篇2My Big Day for the English Test!Hi there! My name is Emily and I'm a 5th grader. Today was a super important day because I took the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 exam! I've been studying really hard for months to get ready. My parents and teachers told me this test is a big deal and shows how good my English skills are. I was a little nervous, but also excited to show off what I've learned.The test had four sections - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. We started with the listening part first thing in the morning. The nice test proctor played audio clips from a CD and we had to mark our answers on a special bubble sheet. Some of the questions asked us to listen for specific details, while others wanted us to get the main idea. There were conversations between kids and adults as well as lectures on topics like animals and vacations. I tried my best to listen really carefully!After listening, we moved on to the reading section. This part had lots of different passages - stories, advertisements, instructions, and more. We had to read each one and then answer comprehension questions about things like the main idea, vocabulary in context, making inferences, and author's purpose. The passages covered all kinds of subjects that kids might be interested in like sports, science experiments, and school events. My favorite was the funny story about a boy and his pet frog!By the time the reading section was over, it was lunchtime. We got to go outside and run around for a bit to rest our brains. Some of my friends were feeling tired, but I had brought an energy bar that my mom packed to refuel. After our break, it was time to tackle the writing tasks.For the writing portion, we had two assignments. First, we had to read a short prompt about an everyday situation and write a response of 100-120 words giving our opinion and reasons. The prompt I got was about whether kids should have set bedtimes or be allowed to go to bed whenever they want. I wrote all about how a regular bedtime schedule helps kids get the sleep they need to stay healthy and do well at school.The second writing task was harder. We were given a topic and some guiding questions, and then had to write an essay of 200-250 words developing our ideas with examples and details. My topic was "An Activity I Enjoy," so I chose to write about my favorite hobby of playing soccer. I described the equipment and rules, explained why I like the teamwork and exercise, and gave an example of scoring an exciting goal during my last game. Organizing and developing an whole essay in English was definitely challenging, but I tried my best!Last but not least was the speaking section. One at a time, we went into a private room and spoke our responses into a recording device while the proctor gave us prompts from the test booklet. First, I had to describe a set of pictures that told a story, like making sure to hit all the key details in my narration. Then I had to listen to a prompt and give my opinion, using reasons and examples to back up what I said. Finally, I got a hypothetical situation and had to propose a solution, again supporting my ideas with clear explanations.Speaking in English without stopping to think too hard was probably the most nerve-wracking part! But I took a deep breath each time and just tried my best to respond naturally and completely. When I finally finished that last speaking task, I was so relieved and proud of myself for making it through such a long, challenging test.Overall, the whole experience of taking the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 was pretty intense! My brain definitely feels a little fried after concentrating so hard for hours. But I'm really glad I prepared as much as I did by practicing tests from previous years, working on skills with my English tutors, and staying after school for extra help. Thanks to all that hard work, Ifelt mostly confident going into each section, even if some parts were tougher than others.Now it's just a waiting game until I get my scores back in a couple months! I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I did well enough to prove my English abilities and get that certificate. No matter what though, I know I grew a lot as an English learner just by taking on this big challenge. Tests may be stressful, but they help show how far you've come and what to work on next. I'm feeling inspired to keep practicing my English skills through reading, games, movies, and conversations with native speakers.Whew, what a big day! I'd better go rest up now. Tackling that huge exam honestly knocked me out. But I'm so proud of myself for persevering through all those listening, reading, writing, and speaking sections. Wish me luck on a great score! Labors Cantantas Forever! (That's "Go Songbirds!" in Latin, my school's motto.) Thanks for letting me share my testing experience!篇3National English Level Test Time!Hi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm in 5th grade. Today I want to tell you all about the National English Level Test that Ijust took. It's a really big deal test that lets you see how good your English is compared to other kids across the whole country. The version I took was the Third Level, which is the level for upper elementary students like me.First off, let me just say - PHEW! I'm so glad that test is over. It was pretty tough, not gonna lie. But I studied really hard, so I think I did ok. My mom signed me up for this special English class to get ready. We did tons of practice tests and learned all kinds of strategies. I may have gotten a little sick of English by the end, but it was worth it!Ok, so the test had four sections - Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. The Listening part had different recordings that we had to listen to very carefully and answer questions about. Some were conversations between people, while others were talks or instructions. I had to use those funny-looking headphones that go over your whole ear. That part wasn't too bad for me since I love listening to English songs, shows, and movies.Then there was the Reading section where we had different passages to read - stories, advertisements, tables, you name it! The questions asked things like what the main idea was, what certain details were, or what vocabulary words meant in context.I read a lottt during my studying, so that helped me get faster at reading in English.Writing is probably the hardest part for me. We had to write a letter and an essay responding to different prompts. It's just so much work putting all the grammar rules together while trying to make your writing flow nicely and get your point across clearly. I made sure to leave time at the end to check over my writing.Finally, there was the Speaking section which was pretty nerve-wracking if I'm being honest. You have to go one-by-one into a separate room with a recording device. The questions came through headphones and you had to speak your responses out loud to get recorded. Topics could be anything - describing a scene, stating an opinion, retelling a story. I tried to speak slowly and clearly like we practiced. Hopefully I didn't say anything too silly!The whole test took almost three hours from start to finish which felt like forever to my short student attention span. We did get a couple short breaks, thank goodness. I just tried to shake out my arms and legs when I could to stay focused. I also packed a healthy snack to nibble on during the breaks.After it was all over, I just felt relieved and proud of myself for pushing through. My teacher said she was already proud ofus all no matter what our scores end up being. She knows how hard we worked. Though I must admit, I am really hoping I did well enough to earn a certificate!The best part is, the test came with a CD full of learning games, videos, songs, you name it! I love playing the cool English games and watching the funny videos. It makes practicing English feel way more fun than just reading textbooks all the time. I really think using that CD helped prepare me.Some of my friends are hoping their scores qualify them to participate in an English summer camp where you go stay overnight and do all kinds of fun English activities. That would be so awesome! Even if I don't get to go this year, I'll just study harder for the next level test.Anyway, those are all my thoughts on this huge English test I just conquered. It was definitely challenging, but also kinda exciting getting to showcase my English skills after working so hard on them. I'm just relieved it's over for now so I can finally read my English novels for fun again instead of just studying! Fingers crossed I did well. Wish me luck!篇4The National English Test Adventure!Hey there, friends! It's me, your pal Timmy. I've got the most exciting story to share with you all today. Brace yourselves for an adventure that will take you through the thrilling world of the National English Proficiency Test!It all started one sunny morning when I arrived at school, my backpack stuffed with pencils, erasers, and a rumbling tummy (I may have skipped breakfast for an extra few minutes of video games). Mrs. Robinson, our awesome English teacher, greeted us with her usual warm smile and a surprise announcement."Class, today we'll be taking the National English Proficiency Test Simulation Paper Level 3!"A collective gasp filled the classroom. Some of my classmates looked puzzled, while others wore expressions of sheer determination. As for me, well, let's just say I was somewhere in between – a little nervous but mostly excited!Mrs. Robinson handed out the test booklets, and the adventure began. The first section was all about listening comprehension. We put on our headphones and tuned in to dialogues and stories, trying our best to answer the questions that followed. I gotta admit, some of those conversations were pretty tricky! But hey, that's half the fun, right?Next up was the reading section. We tackled passages about everything from science experiments to tales of brave explorers. I found myself completely immersed in the stories, like I was right there alongside the characters, navigating through their adventures.Then came the writing part. We had to put our creative juices to the test and pen a short story or essay. Now, I won't lie – this was the part that had me sweating a little. But with Mrs. Robinson's helpful tips and a deep breath, I let my imagination run wild!Finally, we tackled the speaking section. One by one, we stepped up to the microphone and unleashed our English speaking skills. Some of us chatted about our hobbies, while others described their favorite places or fictional characters. It was like we were putting on our own little theater performance!After what felt like an eternity (but was probably just a couple of hours), we handed in our test booklets, feeling a mix of relief and accomplishment. Mrs. Robinson congratulated us on our hard work and promised to go over the answers together in the next class.As I walked home that day, I couldn't help but feel a sense of pride. Sure, the National English Proficiency Test was no walk inthe park, but we had taken it head-on and given it our best shot. And you know what? That's what really matters!So, there you have it, my dear friends – the tale of my first encounter with the National English Test. It was a rollercoaster ride of emotions, challenges, and triumphs. But most importantly, it was an adventure that brought our class together, pushing us to explore the depths of our English skills.Who knows what other linguistic quests await us in the future? But one thing's for sure – with determination, hard work, and a sprinkle of fun, we'll conquer them all! Stay tuned for more exciting tales from the English-learning trenches!篇5The Big English Test Adventure!Hi there! My name is Emma and I'm a fifth-grader. I just had the craziest experience with this huge English test called the National English Proficiency Test Level 3. Let me tell you all about my big adventure!It all started a few months ago when my English teacher Ms. Roberts told our class that we'd be taking this really important test. She said it would show how good our English skills were inlistening, reading, writing, and speaking. I'm not gonna lie, I was pretty nervous at first. Tests can be super scary, especially really long ones!But Ms. Roberts helped us get ready by giving us lots of practice tests and activities from this big blue book called the "National English Proficiency Test Level 3 Simulation." It had ALL sorts of listening exercises, reading passages, writing prompts, and speaking questions, just like the real test. We did practice tests what felt like a million times!My favorite sections were the listening and reading parts. The listening had these fun conversations between kids and there were always silly jokes or stories that made me laugh. The reading passages were really interesting too - they had articles about animals, different countries, hobbies, you name it! I learned so many new words and facts.I definitely struggled more with the writing and speaking sections though. For the writing, we had to write letters, essays, and all sorts of paragraphs. Making sure I used proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation was hard. Speaking out loud was even harder for me because I'm pretty shy. But Ms. Roberts had us practice giving speeches and having conversations until I got more comfortable.Finally, test day arrived! I was pretty nervous waiting in line, clutching my pencil case and my lucky teddy bear. But when I sat down and got my test booklet, I told myself "You got this, Emma!" because I had practiced so much.The listening section went by super fast. The conversations and stories were just like the practice ones, so I didn't get too flustered. Same with the reading - I kept reminding myself to read carefully and double check if I was unsure of an answer.Writing was still hard, but I took my time and reread the questions over and over. I made sure to plan out my essays and letters first before writing them out. Ms. Roberts always said the brainstorming step was just as important as the writing part.When it was time for speaking, I did get a little sweaty! But I looked at the friendly test grader, took a deep breath, and just pretended I was talking to my stuffed animals at home. I stated my answers clearly and threw in some of those transition words and idioms we had practiced.After what felt like AGES, the test was finally over! I was so tired but really proud that I had given it my all. While I waited for my results, I worked on even more practice tests from the Simulation book and its CD of audio files. I wanted to be absolutely ready in case I needed to take any sections again.A few weeks later, the scores came in the mail. I had passed all four sections!! I was overjoyed and gave the biggest hug to Ms. Roberts and my parents. All that hard work and practice from the National English Proficiency Test Level 3 Simulation had really paid off. The test may have been hard, but it was also an awesome, rewarding experience!So to all my fellow test takers out there - study hard, practice tons, and don't be nervous! If you prepare well with materials like the Simulation tests, you'll do wonderfully. Just think of it as one big, exciting English adventure! Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go celebrate with some ice cream. Testing is tough work!篇6Hi there! I'm Sam, a 5th grade student, and I want to tell you about this really cool English test I took recently called the National English Proficiency Test Level 3. It was kind of like a big exam, but it was actually really fun!First off, we had to buy this big book and CD to prepare for the test. The book was filled with all kinds of practice questions and exercises to get us ready. There were reading passages, grammar drills, listening exercises, and even speaking practice. We used the CD to listen to the audio parts at home. My favoritesections were the dialogues – they were like little stories of kids my age talking about everyday things like school, friends, and hobbies.When the test day arrived, I was a tiny bit nervous, but mostly excited! We had to go to a special testing center with lots of other students. First up was the listening section. We put on headphones and listened to conversations, stories, and instructions. Then we had to answer multiple choice questions about what we heard. It was kind of challenging having to listen so carefully, but also pretty engaging with all the different voices and situations.After listening, we moved right into the reading part. There were passages about topics like science, narratives, and school life. The passages weren't too long, but there were a bunch of questions following each one that really made you think deeply about whatyou read. You had to identify main ideas, make inferences, figure out vocabulary from context, and more. It was a good mental workout!Then came the grammar and writing sections. These involved things like filling in blanks, rewriting sentences, and short answer writing. I'm not gonna lie - the grammar questions were pretty tough! You really had to know your verb tenses,sentence structures, and the nitty gritty details. The writing prompts weren't too bad though. We had to write a paragraph or two about common topics like our hobbies and experiences.Last but not least was the speaking section. We wentone-by-one into a room and spoke into a recorder. The tasks included introducing ourselves, describing pictures, androle-playing conversations. It felt a little weird talking to a machine at first, but I tried to just imagine I was chatting with a friend and it went smoothly.After almost four hours of awesomely exhausting English skills, the test was finally over! A few weeks later, I received my score report and...I passed! I earned a nifty certificate too. While the exam wasn't easy, I actually had a great time putting my English abilities to the test in all areas like listening, reading, writing, speaking, and even my grammar ninja skills. It felt like such an accomplishment.To anyone thinking of taking this test, I'd say go for it! It's challenging for sure, but also an amazing way to practice and showcase your practical English communication skills. Just study hard with those practice materials, don't stress too much, and most importantly - have fun with the language. Who knows, youmight just earn an English level up like I did! Let me know if you have any other questions!。
