Part I Vocabulary and Structure(60points)Direction:In this part,there are60incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the ONE that best completes the sentence.Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.1.Mike,together with his team members,______going to take part in the next Olympic Games.A.areB.isC.beD.am参考答案：B考点解析：就远原则由with,along with,together with,as well as,accompanied by,rather than等词连接的短语作主语，遵循“就远原则”，即谓语动词的单复数由离它较远的主语决定。
因此本题的谓语动词由主语Mike决定。
因此答案选B。
2.______is quite difficult for Mary to get the job since there are so many competitors.A.WhatB.ThisC.ThatD.It参考答案：D考点解析：句型”It is+adj.+to do sth.”，其中it作形式主语。
在此句型中，不定式是真正的主语，为避免句子"头重脚轻"，通常用it作形式主语，而将真正的主语置于句末。
其中"for sb."是"to do"动作的逻辑主语。
因此答案选D。
3.Don’t make any noise in the library,_______?A.will youB.do youC.won’t youD.don’t you考点解析:反义疑问句祈使句（否定）的反义疑问句，除了"let’s"要用shall we?之外，其它的都用will you,肯定和否定都一样。
因此答案选A。
4.______of them knew about the plan because it was secret.A.AnyB.No oneC.AllD.None参考答案:D考点解析:代词辨析"any'表示"任何人,任何事"；"no one"表示"没有人"（后面不接of）；"all’’表示"所有,一切；"none"为"一个也没有",对三者或三者以上的否定。
根据句意"因为它是保密的"，推断出没有人知道这个计划。
因此答案选D。
5._______beautiful weather we are having these days!A.WhereB.HowC.WhatD.That参考答案：C考点解析：what引导的感叹句感叹句基本句型:What+(a/an）)+adj.+n.+(主+谓)!/How+adj.adv.+(主+谓)!what和how引导的感叹句，区别在于what修饰名词和名词短语；How用来修饰形容词，副词。
根据题干中的"beautiful weather"，因此推断答案选C。
6.The winner is a Chinese player,________name often appears in sports news.A.whichB.whoC.whoseD.whom参考答案：C考点解析:定语从句关系代词题干中主句完整，而先行词为"a Chinese player''的定语从句中缺少主语的定语,即"…的名字"。
四个选项中关系代词"which"一般代指的先行词是物；"who/whom代替的是表示人的名词或代词，在从句中作主语或宾语；"whose"用作关系代词时，代指人或物，表示"……的……"作定语。
根据句意"中国运动员的名字经常出现在体育新闻中"。
因此本题选C。
7.When Mr.Jones gets retired,he will________his business to his daughter.A.take overB.hand overC.think overD.get over参考答案:B考点解析:动词短语辨析"take over"意为"接收,接管"；"hand over"为"交出,移交"；"think over"为"仔细考虑"；"get over"为"恢复,克服"，根据句意"当琼斯先生退休时，他将把他的事业移交给他的女儿。
"因此本题选B。
8.The wallet was________to the foreign tourist when it was proved that he was the owner.A.given awayB.given outC.given backD.given up参考答案:C考点解析:give的动词短语辨析"give away"意为"赠送,泄露";"give out"为"分发";"give back"为"归还";"give up"为"放弃"，根据句意"当证明这个外国游客就是钱包的主人时,钱包就归还给他了。
"因此本题选C。

根据句意"他们需要许多钱为残疾儿童建一所特殊学校"。
因此本题选B。
10.The old lady opened the window to see what was________outside in the street.A.going onB.going outC.going overD.going after参考答案:A考点解析:go的动词短语辨析"go on"为"继续,发生"；"go out"为"出去,熄灭"；"go over"为"复习,仔细检查"；"go after'为"追求,追逐"。

因此本题应选C。
12.The delegates from eighty-six countries_______present at the international conference held in Hainan last June.A.areB.wereC.haveD.had参考答案:B考点解析:时态根据题干中的时间"last June",可以排除选项A、C，若选择D选项"had",则后面的动词"present"应为"presented"，因此排除D选项。
本题中"present"为形容词，表示"出席的"，因此本题选B。
13.By the end of last year,we_______about$100,000.A.earnB.had been earningC.had earnedD.have earned参考答案:C考点解析:时态By the end of是”……末”的意思，后边跟不同的时间会有不同的含义和用法。
若后面跟将来的时间，句子就用一般将来时；若后面跟现在的时间，就用现在完成时;若后面跟过去的时间，就用过去完成时。
根据of后的"last year"，得知句子应用过去完成时，因此本题选C。
14.The newly-wed couple told Jack that they________a new car the next month.A.went to buyB.are going to buyC.were going to buyD.have gone to buy参考答案∶C考点解析:时态根据时间状语"the next month"推断从句应为将来时，排除D。

Reading Comprehension（50分）阅读4片，样题提供前三篇Directions: There are 4 passages in this part, each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneLearning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.“Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience…not to be inhibited (拘谨；抑制)…not to be nervous…”Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.It is the same in writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.O f course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper.”4l. The main task of a public speech course is to ________.A. teach spoken-language experienceB. teach how to use gestures to assist speechC. help the learners overcome nervousnessD. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how tospeak in public in that a writer should ___________.A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first placeB. watch his or her grammar and vocabularyC. collect a lot of data before writingD. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing43. In the author’s opinion, _________.A.w riting needs more experience and skill than publicspeakingB.b oth writing and public speaking require effortC.w riting is imaginativeD.p ublic speaking is not so natural as writing44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A.N ot many students feel the need to learn publicspeaking.B.T raining is necessary before you can speak with script.C.I n public speaking, the audience are more nervousthan the speaker.D.W riting is just like making a public speech on paper.45. This selection is mainly about learning how to _______.A.m ake a public speechB.t alk on paperC.b ehave properly in public speechD.e xpress strong emotion on paperPassage TwoIn the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs.The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper and so on exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental peoples.Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydroelectric power.Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new undersea technology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year , experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.46. What is the best title for the passage?A. Needs of ManB. Sources of EnergyC. SeaHarvest D. Sea Exploring Technology47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because______.A.m an cannot travel farther into spaceB.resources on land are running shortC.i t’s a lot of fun diving into the seaD. ancientpeople used to explore the sea48. Why does the author mention a steamship?A.To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than onland.B.To show that a steamship is better than other kindsof ship.C.To argue that man should use steamships more thanother means of transportation.D.To illustrate that man can make use of sources ofenergy from the sea.49. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.A.man hasn’t completely developed the riches of theseaB.technology for exploring the sea has been solvedC.planting rice in the sea will be made possible in ashort timeD.in the near future man can live on the ocean floor50. The word “exploit” in the last paragraph could best be replaced by________.A.evaluateB. developC. gatherD. scatterPassage ThreeYour passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. In Europe, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is the final proof of identity in almost every county in the world.In l979 almost l5 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few Western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if youtravel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket or check into a hotel. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires or war.Don’t confuse passports and visas. Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit.Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New York, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you mustsubmit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.5l. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.A. discuss traveling in other countriesB. distinguish between passports and visasC. discuss the financial uses of a passportD. provide information about passports52. Passports are beneficial for___________.A. exchanging currencyB. using a credit cardC. checking into hotelsD. all of the above53. We can conclude from the passage that_________.A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenB. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizenC. only countries like Argentina, Brazil, andVenezuela now require visas from U.S. citizensD. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country54. The passage suggests that_________.A. most people don’t realize how important passports areB. passports aren’t important once you are in thecountry you’ve chosen to visitC. passports are simple to obtain through the mailD. passports are obtained at the embassy once youenter a country55. As used in this passage, the word “valid” in the second paragraph means__________.A. foreignB. legalC. monetaryD. illegal III．Cloze (20分)Directions: There are 20 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D below the passage. You should decide on the ONE that best fits into the passage and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Different people have different hobbies.

Read it carefully and translate it into Chinese.As a developing country, China is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy and protecting the environment. Starting from its national conditions, China has, in the process of promoting its overall modernization program, made environmental protection one of its basic policies, regarded the realization of sustainable economic development as an important strategy and meanwhile, carried out throughout the country campaigns for pollution prevention and treatment as well as ecological environmental protection.Over the 35 years since its adoption of reform and opening policy, China’s gross national product has achieved an average annual growth of around l0 percent, while its environment has basically ceased from deteriorating. Practice has shown that China’s endeavor in striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection has been effective.As a member of the international community, China, while making great efforts to protect its own environment, has taken an active part in international environmental protection affairs to promote international cooperation in environmental protection, and earnestly fulfilled her international obligations. All these have given full expression to the sincerity and determination of the Chinese government and people to protect the global environment.Mankind still faces a great many difficulties in solving the problems of the environment and development, and there is a grand task to perform and a long way to go. China will, as it did in the past, cooperate with other countries of the world and strive for the protection of the environment for human survival, for the happiness and prosperity of humanity, and for the benefits of our children.V.

Reading Comprehension ( 50 分)Directions: In this part there are four passages. Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneWhen young people get their first real jobs, they face a lot of new, confusing situations. They may find that everything is different from the way things were at school. It is also possible that they will feel uncomfortable and insecure in both professional and social situations. Eventually, they realize that university classes can't be the only preparation for all of the different situations that arise in the working world.(81) Perhaps the best way to learn how tobehave in the working world is to identify a worker you admire and observe his behavior. By doing so, you will be able to see what it is that you admire in this person. For example, you will observe how he acts in a crisis. Perhaps even more important, you will be able to see what his approach to day-to-day situations is.While you are observing your colleague, you should be asking yourself whether his behavioris like yours and how you can learn from his responses to a variety ofsituations. By watching and learning from a model, you will probably begin to identifyand adopt good working habits.41. The young people who just graduated from school may not behave well in theworking world becauseA. they were not well educated at schoolB.what they learn in university classes is not adequate for their new lifeC.the society is too complicated to adapt toD. they failed to work hard at school42. The underlined word "arise" in Para. I means.A. come into beingB. bringaboutC. go upD. cause to happen43. The best way to learn how to behave in the working world is.A. to find a worker and follow him closelyB. to find a person you respect and see how he acts in different situationsC. to find a person you admire and make friends with himD. to make the acquaintance of a model you admire44. The purpose of this writing is.A. to offer career guide to young peopleB. to tell young people the importance of the first jobC. to instruct young people how to communicate with peopleD. to advise young people on good working habits45. The passage could be best entitled _.A. Learn, Learn and Learn AgainB. One Is Never Too Old to LearnC. Learn from a ModelD. Learn ForeverPassage TwoAirline companies are responsible for transporting your luggage.If you cannot recover it at the point of arrival, you must inform the airline immediately. They will carry out the necessary search. If the luggage is recovered, it will be delivered to your place of residence. If you wish to insure your luggage, you may do so at your own expense.Some airlines restrict luggage weight to 44 pounds(20kg) ; in other cases, there is no weight restriction, but you are not allowed more than two pieces of luggage. Inquire about luggage allowances from the airline with which you will be traveling. However, you must pay extra for excess luggage, which is not reimbursed(补偿) by Canadian International Development Agency(CIDA).Each suitcase, bag or package must be clearly labeled with your name and destina-tion. (82) If you do not know the exact destination address at the time of your departure, label your luggage in care of(由……代收) the executing agency whose name appears in the Training Agreement, using the following model:Surname, first nameName of your countryAddress of the executing agencyCity, country, postal codeTelephone number of executing agencyIf you do not have this information, please label your luggage with the name and address of the institution you are to attend in Canada. If none of these details are available, you can use CIDA's address.46. If you can't find your luggage at the point of arrival, airline companies will try to find it and _.A. ask you to insure your luggageB. deliver it to where you liveC. inform you about its recoveryD. ask you to pay some money for it47. Before taking your air trip, you have to make sureA. of the restrictions on luggageB. of the insurance for luggageC. who will pay for the excess luggageD. how much CIDA will pay for the excess luggage48. The charge for the excess luggage should be paid by _.A. CIDAB. the passengerC. the insurance companyD. the executing agency49. In case you have no idea at all where to send your luggage, you can send it to theaddress of.A. the instiution you are to attendB. the airline you travel withC. the Canadian International Development AgencyD. the executive agency given in the Training Agreement50. The passage is mainly about CIDA's advice on.A. the charge of your luggageB. the handling of your luggageC. the insurance of your luggageD. the transportation of your luggagePassage ThreeSince we are social beings, the quality of our lives depends in large measure on our interpersonal relationships. One strength of human condition is our possibility to give and receive support from one another under stressful (有压力的) conditions. Social support makes up the exchanges of resources among people based on their interpersonal ties. Those of us with strong support systems appear better able to deal with major life changes and daily problems. People with strong social ties live longer and have better health than those without such ties.Studies over types of illnesses, from depression to heart disease, show that the presence of social support helps people defend themselves against illness, and the absence of such support makes poor health more likely.Social support cushions stress in a number of ways. First, friends, relatives and co- workers may let us know that they value us. Our self-respect is strengthened when we feel accepted by others in spite of our faults and difficulties. Second, other people often provide us with informational support. They help us to define and understand our problems and find solutions to them. Third, we typically find social companionshipsupportive.(83)Taking part in free-time activities with others helps us to meet our social needs while at the same timedistracting us from our worries and troubles. Finally, other people may give us instrumental support－money aid, material resources, and needed services—that reduces stress by helping us resolve and deal with our problems.51. The author mainly talks about _.A. how to improve our interpersonal relationshipsB. people's health conditionsC. how to deal with daily worries and problemsD. the importance of interpersonal relationships52. Para.2 is mainly about _.A. ways to reduce stressB. informational supportC. instrumental supportD. social companionship53. The word "cushion" in Para. 2 means.A. increase the effect ofB. reduce the effect ofC. a mat placed beneath the carpet of a sofaD. a rug placed on the floor54. Lending money to a person in trouble belongs to.A. the strengthening of self-respectB. social companionshipC. instrumental supportD. informational support55. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. Playing chess with others in spare time is of informational support.B. Social support enables us to succeed in dealing with all kinds of problems.C. With social support, people will become perfect without any faults.D. It's possible that people who have fewer social ties are in poor health.Passage Four(84)One of the best-known proverbs must be "Early to bed, early to rise, makes a manhealthy, wealthy and wise. " The promises of health, wealth and wisdom to those who join the ranks of the early retires and risers must be particularly appealing to many people in our contemporary society. There is no doubt that one of the greatest concerns of modern man is his health. It is estimated that in the United States 200 billion dollars are spent on health care each year. The medical field has grown into such a big business that it employs 4. 8 million people and it appears that in many places, more staff is needed to meet the demands of the people whoare concerned about their physical well-being.Much more interest has been shown in preventive(预防的) medicine in recent years. (85) This is probably due in part to the increasing costs of medical treatment, but the writings of such people as Dr. Kenneth Cooper have also played an important role. In his book Aerobics,Dr. Cooper communicated his message of the benefits of exercise so effectively that many other authors have followed in his trail, and literally millions of readers have put on their sports shoes and taken to the highways and byways of America. A recent survey showed that overone million people are jogging. The last time I was in Honolulu, I wasamazedto see hundreds of people, young and old, running for their lives, and I discovered many of them had run in the Hawaiian Marathon.Exercise has also become a major part of conversation. At a dinner party recently, the president of a bank asked me, "You look like a runner; how far do you run each day?"A few days later when I appeared on a national television show, the host suddenly asked me if I was a regular runner. On both occasions the conversation turned to the subject of exercise and I found, as I have found wherever I have traveled recently, that this is a subject on many people's minds. Of course, there are still many people who are less enthusiastic about exercise. They appreciate the philosophy of Robert M. Hutchins who said, "Whenever the thought of exercise occurs to me, I lie down till it passes. "56.The underlined word "retires". in Para. 1 probably refers to.A. people who go to.bedB. people who live in quiet placesC. people who have a lot of free timeD. people who give up their work57. The first paragraph indicates that medical workers.A. can make a lot of moneyB. like running sports more than ordinary peopleC. are more concerned with their own healthD. are in great demand58.In the United States, medical treatment is.A. expensiveB. insufficientC. very effectiveD. cheap59. The pronoun "it" in the last sentence of the passage means.A. exerciseB. the thought of exerciseC. meD. nothing60. The examples of conversation in the last paragraph are used _.A. to show the writer's love for travelB. to prove that the writer was a good runnerC. to show people's interest in exerciseD. to prove that people are tired of old conversation topicsⅢ.

Good salesman brings out such a substitute with68: "I know this is not the style you want, sir; but would you like to try it for size? It happens to _ 69the color you told me." Few men70patience with this kind of treatment, and the usual response is: "This is the right color and maybe the right size, _ 71 _ I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it72."For a woman, buying clothes is always done in the opposite way.

Main Street was always in the heart of a town. This street was62on both sides with63businesses. Here, shoppers walked into stores to look at all sorts of merchandise: clothing, furniture, hardware, groceries.64, some shops offered65. These shops included drugstores, restaurants, shoe-repair stores, and barber or hairdressing shops. _66in the 1950s, a change began to67.Too many automobiles had crowded into Main Street68too few parking places were69shoppers. Because the streets were crowded, merchants began to look with interest at the open spaces _70the city limits. Open space is what their car-driving customers needed. And open space is what they got71the first shopping center was built Shopping centers, or rather malls,72as a collection of small new stores73crowded city centers.74by hundreds of free parking space, customers were drawn away from75areas to outlying malls. And the growing 76 of shopping centers led77to the building of bigger and better stocked stores. _ 78 _ the late 1970s, many shopping malls had almost developed into small cities themselves.

your favorite color?We are all sensitive to color.There are some colors we like a lot and some we don't like at all.Some colors comfort us,others excite us,some make us happy,and others make us sad.People are affected by color more than they realize because color is tied to all aspects of our lives.Experts in colorogenic,the study of the language of color,believe that the colors we wear say a lot about us.Do you know why you select a shirt or dress of a certain color when you look through your c lothes in the morning?Colorogenic experts say that we unconsciously choose to wear certain colors in order to communicate our desires,emotions,and needs.Colorogenic experts claim that our clothes send messages to others about our mood,personality,a nd desires.Pink expresses the peace and contentment of the wearer.People who often wear pink are s upposed to be warm and understanding.The message is that you would like to share your peace and ha ppiness with others.Red garments,on the other hand,indicate a high level of physical energy.People who wear red like to take life at a fast pace.Brown is the color of wealth,and it shows a need for indep endence and material security.Wearers of green have a love of nature and enjoy peaceful moments.Th ey often like to be left alone with their thoughts.Although colorogenic may be a recent area of study,a ssociating colors with emotions is not new.Colors have always been used to describe not only our feeli ngs but also our physical health and attudes."Red with rage describes anger;in the pink means to be in good health;feeling blue is a sad way to feel;and"green with envy indicates a jealous attude.In conclusion,the study of color can help us to understand ourselves and to improve our lives.It o ffers an alternative way to heal the body and spirit,and it can help us understand what others are trying to communicate.61.Why are people affected by color more than they realize?A.colors make people more sensitive.B.colors bring people different feelings.C.colors are everywhere in people's lives.D.colors give people excitement.答案：C62.According to the passage,_____.A.people wear different colors to

our emotions and desires.C.Because it helps us to feel happier and more excited.D.Because it helps us to understand ourselves and others.答案：DPassage TwoRoger Sperry and Robert Einstein of the California Institute of Technology won a Nobel Prize in1 972.They discovered that the human brain has two sides,and each side has different work to do.The left side of the brain controls language and number;it analyses and reasons.The right s ide controls our imagination;it controls our understanding of music and our sense of rhythm.It is the right side of our brain which makes daydreams.Great artists and great scientists are similar:they both use the two sides of their brain.It iswell-known that Albert Einstein,as a great scientist,also enjoyed art,playing the violin and sailing.Ei nstein said his scientific discoveries grew from his imagination rather than from analysis,reason and la nguage.He said that written and spoken words were not important in his thinking.He got ideas by usin g his imagination.He then used the left side of brain to use analysis,number and reason and then he us ed language to explain it.Usual education in schools encourages us to use the left side of our nguage,number,ana lysis and reason are given more importance in our schools than imagination and daydreaming.In fact,all of us need both sides of our brain.We need to use our imaginations to think of solution s to problems and to enjoy feeling and creative experiences.And we need to be logical and to be able to analyze and organize in order to live in this world.It is true that some people find it easier to use one side of the brain rather than the other but all of us can use both sides and all of us benefit by using all the powers we have.Nietzsche,the well-known philosopher,said that we add to our knowledge by making conscious the unconscious.66.According to the passage,____of our brain controls our understanding of music.A.the left sideB.the right sideC.both sidesD.neither sides答案：B67.Albert Einstein's example is used to support the idea that___A.all scientific discoveries are based on imagination.B.people should do nothing but daydreaming two sides of brain is important.D.scientists are good at imagining what may happen答案：C68.It is implied in the passage that school educationA.suggests using both sides of the brainB.finds it very important to have daydreamsC.claims that analysis and reason are of no valueD.fails to develop the right side of the brain答案：D69.What did Nietzsche say about adding to the knowledge we have?A.Learning happens when we are not conscious.B.Learning happens when we make unconscious decisions.C.Learning happens when we become aware of things inside us.D.Learning happens when we think about things logically.答案：C70.The author's attitude toward using two sides of the brain is_____.A.positiveB.neutralC.illogicalD.critical答案：APassage ThreeFor many people today,reading is no longer relaxation.To keep up their work they must read letters,reports,trade publications,interoffice communications,not to mention newspapers and ma gazines:a never-ending flood of words.In getting a job or advancing in one,the ability to read and co mprehend quickly can mean the difference between success and failure.Yet the unfortunate fact is that most of us are poor readers.Most of us develop poor reading habits at an early a ge,and never get over them.The main problem lies in language itself--words.Single words have little meaning until they are combined into phrases,sentences and paragraphs.Unfortunately,however,the u ntrained reader does not read groups of words.He reads one word at a time,often regressing to rereadwords or passages.Regression,or looking back over what you have just read,is a common bad habit in reading.Another habit which slows down the speed of reading is vocalization--sounding each word ei ther orally or mentally as one reads.To overcome these bad habits,some reading clinics use a device called accelerator(加速器),which moves a bar down the page at a predetermined speed.The bar is set at a slightly faster rate t han the reader finds comfortable,in order to stretch"him.The accelerator forces the reader to read fast, making word-by-word reading,regression and vocalization virtually impossible.At first,comprehensi on is sacrificed for speed.But when you learn to read ideas,you will not only read faster,but your com prehension will improve.Many people have found their reading skills improved a lot after some trainin g.71.According to the passage,today many people no longer read forA.newsB.their workrmationD.entertainment答案：D72.Most people can't read and comprehend quickly mainly becauseА.they don't read groups of wordsB.they don't like to be trained in reading skillsC.they don't realize they have poor reading habitsD.they don't understand words when put together答案：A73.The following are all bad reading habits EXCEPTA.regressionB.reading for ideas onlyC.vocalizationD.word-by-word reading答案：B74.How does an accelerator help people to read?A.It helps people read at a comfortable speed.B.It makes people stretch their eyes when reading.C.It forces people to overcome bad reading habits.D.It lets people look back over what they have just read.答案：C75.What does“At first,comprehension is sacrificed for speed”(Para.2,Sentence4)mean?A.The reader reads fast,but he understands everything he reads.B.The reader reads slowly and he understands everything he reads.C.The reader reads slowly,but he doesn't understand everything he reads.D.The reader reads fast without understanding everything he reads.答案：DPassage FourWhen the dog named Judy saw the first sheep in her life,she did what came naturally.The four-ye ar-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and,being a city animal,lost both her shee p and her sense of direction.Then she ran along the edge of the cliff(ằ)and fell100feet,jumping off a rock into the sea.Her owner Mike Holden was worried and called the coastguard of Cornwall,who appeared in sec onds.Six volunteers went down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her aliv e after a90-minute search.Three days later,a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall.Mr.Holden returned home from his holi day upset,believing his pet was dead.He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.For the next two weeks,the Holdens were heartbroken.Then,one day,the phone rang and Steve T regear,the coastguard of Cornwall,asked Holden if he would like his dog back.A birdwatcher,using a telescope,found the pet sitting on a rock.While he sounded the alarm,a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to pick up Judy.The dog had been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh stream at the base of the cliff.She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge.The dog was very thin and hungry,"Steve Tre gear said,It was a very lucky dog.She survived because of the fresh water around,"he added.It was,as Mr.Holden admitted,"a miracle(奇迹)".76.The dog Judy fell down the cliff when she was____.A.rescuing her ownerB.caught in a hurricaneC.blocked by a rockD.running after a sheep答案：D77.Who spotted Judy after the accident?A.A birdwatcherB.A student from LeedsC.Six volunteersD.The coastguard of Cornwall答案：A78.What can be inferred from the passage?A.People like to travel with their pets.B.Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.C.Luck plays a vital role in Judy's

cliff.B.Judy was strong and be healthy when she was found.C.People thought Judy died after a90-minute search.D.Judy survived because she had fresh water and food答案：B80.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?A.Miracle of the Coastguard.B.Surviving a Hurricane.C.Dangers in the WildD.A narrow escape.答案：DII.Translation(20points)How should we react to disasters?Firstly,I think it is reasonable to face them.No one expects disast ers,but if they come,they are there,and we must accept them as they are.In this way,it might be easie r for us to recover from the shock they bring to us.Secondly,we should concentrate on what we can do to relieve the bad effect of the disaster.We can't undo what is done,but we can make things a little better with our effort.Finally,in the face of disaster,we should help each ot her and try to make up for the losses caused by them.答案：我们该如何应对灾难?首先，我认为面对他们是合理的。

Translate the following paragraph into Chinese: (10 points) Rummaging through the fruit and veg section of my local supermarket, reading the country of origin labels, I am bewildered by the geography of it all. That the fruits of the earthshould all be laid out on tidy shelves in this provincial corner of Britain would have been unthinkable a few years ago, yet now it is taken for granted.Once strange and exotic fruits that only the rich could afford, if not now part of everyones diet, are certainly part of our everydayshopping experience. So much so that instead of focusing on the novel, I am drawn to the commonplace. Here, among the humble vegetables, something strange and disturbing is going on.V.

Reading Comprehension (38 points)Clearly if we are to participle in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people. A great deal of communicating is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech. If we travel in buses, buy things in shops, or eat in restaurants, we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions, receive news or comment, and very likely have our views challenged by other members ofsociety.Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of has become of one of the dominating factors ofcontemporary society. Two things, above others, have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry. Firstly, inventiveness has led to advances in printing, telecommunications, photography, radio and television. Secondly, speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news, which itself is often almost eclipsed by international news.No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority. In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate, but today there are public libraries. Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema, but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme that is being channeled into millions of homes.Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information. The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information, education and entertainment. The printing, broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing,educating and entertaining.Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is apart, the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse. However, the mass media are with us for better, for worse,and there is no turning back.1. In the first paragraph the writer emphasizes the _________ offace-to-face contact insocial settings.A natureB limitationC usefulnessD creativity2. It is implied in the passage that_______A local news used to be the only source of informationB local news still takes a significant placeC national news is becoming more popularD international news is the fastest transmitted news3. which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A To possess information used to be a privilegeB Public libraries have replaced private librariesC Communication means more than transmissionD Information influences ways of life and thinking4.From the last paragraph we can infer that the writer is________.A indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass mediaB happy about the drastic changes in the mass mediaC pessimistic about the future of the mass mediaD concerned about the wrong use of the mass mediaI am one of the many city people who are always saying that giventhe choice we would prefer to live in the country away from the dirt andnoise of a large city. I have managed to convince myself thatit werent for my job I would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But howrealistic is the dream?Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the populationlive in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. All you can see from your window is sky, or other blocks of flats. Children become aggressive and nervouscooped up at home all day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks dont even say hello to each other.Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing that there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a village, it is also true that you are cut off from the existing and important events that take place in cities. Theres little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, andfor anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on and expedition to the nearest large town. The city-dweller who leaves forthe country is often oppressed by a sense of unbearable stillness and quiet.What, then, is the answer? The country has the advantage of peaceand quiet, but suffers from the disadvantage of being cut off; the city breeds a feeling of isolation, and constant noise batters the senses.But one of its main advantages is that you are at the center of things, and that life doesnt come to an end at half-past nine at night. Some people have found (or rather bought) a compromise between the two; they have expressed their preference for the quiet life by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity as the plastic flowers they leave behind they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the villages.What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring morning to the locals as they pass by? Im keen on the idea, but you see theres my cat, T oby, Im not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass, I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening.5. We get the impression from the first paragraph that the authorA used to live in the countryB used to work in the cityC works in the cityD lives in the country6. In the authors opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT A a strong sense of fear B lack ofcommunicationC housing conditionsD a sense of isolation7. The passage implies that it is easy to buy the following thingsin the country EXCEPT A daily necessities B fresh fruitsC designer clothesD fresh vegetables8. According to the passage, which of the following adjectives best describes those people who work in large cities and live in villages?A OriginalB QuietC ArrogantD Insensitive9. Do you think the author will move to the country?A Yes, he will do soB No, he will not do soC It is difficult to tellD He is in two mindsIdeas about education are changing in the United States. Education today is not just a high school diploma or a college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. For them, learning does not end with a diploma.Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field or to learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills or to learn new ones.Scientists, mechanics and barbers can take classes toimprove their work skills. If they know more or learn more, they can get a better job or earn more money.Continuing education classes give more adults the chances to learn new skills. There is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, or swimming. These are only some of the classes available.Some adults take classes for fun or because the class will be useful for them. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.Almost any community college or public school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings or churches. Most classes are in the evening, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive.10. The new idea about education in the U.S. is that__________.A. everyone should get a college degreeB. Its no use for adults to go to collegeC. a high school diploma is the end of educationD. adults should go on learning after graduating from school11. Whats the purpose for adults to continue their education?A. Enlarge their knowledge and learn new skills.B. Catch up the opportunity to get a higher degree.C. Learn more basic knowledge to get a diploma.D. Make themselves live a more comfortable life.12. Which of the following statement is true?A. There are only a few continuing education classes available for adults.B. Only those who want to get more money should go onwith their education.C. People take continuing education can get a good job.D. All the people getting continuing education can get a good job.13. Usually, the continuing education program is given________.A. in a small size and expensivelyB. only for working peopleC. only in community buildings or churchesD. by community colleges and public schools14. The best title for the passage would be _________.A. Continuing Education ClassesB. The Importance of a College DegreeC. A Good Way to Earn More MoneyD. Difference Choices for AdultsHuman cloning technology could be used to reverse heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack victims by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successfully. Couples go through physically and emotionally painfulprocedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without successfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow for childrenand adults suffering from leukemia. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloning technology.We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.The above is just a few examples of what human cloning technology can do for mankind. This new technology promises unprecedented advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefits begin.15Heart attacks can be treated with human cloning technologyby___________.A removing the damaged part of the heartB replacing the old heart with a cloned oneC repairing the heart with cells cloned from healthy onesD giving the patients injections of various medicines16. The word infertile(Line 1, Para.2) most probablymeans____________.A unable to give birth to a childB with physical and emotional problemsC short of time and moneyD separated from each other for long17. According to the passage, one of the first expected benefits from cloning technology may be in____________.A the treatment of heart attacksB the bearing of babiesC the cure of blood diseasesD the detection of gene-related diseases18. Cancer may be cured with the cloning technology by___________.A attacking the diseased cells with healthy onesB controlling the growth of the cellsC detecting disordered genes in the cancel cellsD activating cancer cells by switching them on19. According to the writer, the main problem with the development of human cloning technology is that___________.A it may be out of human controlB it has brought about few benefits so farC people still know little about itD people are afraid of such technologyVII.

2020陕西省专升本英语考试真题及答案全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1Here's an article written in English from the perspective of an elementary school student, around 2000 words long, about the 2020 Shaanxi Province English Test for Upgrading from Junior College to Undergraduate level, including the test questions and answers.The Big English Test AdventureHi there! My name is Lucy, and I'm a 10-year-old girl who loves learning new things, especially in English class. Today, I want to tell you all about the exciting adventure I had with the 2020 Shaanxi Province English Test for Upgrading from Junior College to Undergraduate level!It all started when my older cousin, who's in junior college, asked me for help practicing for this big test. At first, I was a bit nervous because it sounded really difficult. But my cousin promised to take me out for ice cream if I helped her, so I couldn't say no!The first part of the test was all about reading comprehension. There were a few passages about different topics, and we had to answer questions based on what we read. One passage was about the importance of protecting the environment. Here's a sample question and answer:Question: According to the passage, what are some ways we can help reduce pollution?A) Ride a bike or take public transportation instead of driving.B) Turn off lights and electronics when not in use.C) Recycle paper, plastic, and metal products.D) All of the above.The correct answer is D) All of the above. The passage talked about how simple actions like conserving energy, usingeco-friendly transportation, and recycling can all help reduce our carbon footprint and protect the planet we live on.Next up was the listening section, where we had to listen to audio clips and answer questions based on what we heard. One clip was about a girl describing her favorite summer vacation. Here's a sample question:Question: Where did the girl go for her summer vacation?A) The beachB) The mountainsC) A theme parkD) Her grandparents' houseIf you guessed D) Her grandparents' house, you're right! The girl talked about spending her summer at her grandparents' place and all the fun activities she did there, like baking cookies and playing in the backyard.After the listening part, we moved on to the writing section. We had to write a short essay on a given topic. One of the topics was "My Favorite Book and Why I Like It." I wrote about how my favorite book is "Charlotte's Web" because it's a heartwarming story about friendship and loyalty, and it teaches valuable lessons about appreciating life.Lastly, there was the speaking section, where we had to answer questions and have a conversation with the examiner. One of the questions was "What do you like to do in your free time?" I talked about how I enjoy playing sports like soccer and basketball, as well as reading books and spending time with my family.Overall, the test was challenging but also a lot of fun! It was like a big adventure where I got to explore different aspects of the English language. My cousin was really impressed with how well I did, and she treated me to a huge ice cream sundae as a reward.If you ever have to take a big English test like this one, my advice is to practice as much as you can, but also try to enjoy the process of learning new things. Don't be afraid to make mistakes – that's how we grow and improve. And most importantly, believe in yourself! With hard work and a positive attitude, you can conquer any challenge that comes your way.Thanks for joining me on this exciting English test adventure! Until next time, keep practicing, keep learning, and never stop exploring the wonderful world of language and knowledge.篇2My Big English Test Adventure!Hi everyone! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 10 years old. I just had the craziest adventure taking a really important English test. Let me tell you all about it!It was a sunny Saturday morning when my mom woke me up really early. "Time to get ready for your big English test!" she said cheerfully. I was so nervous! This was the 2020 Shaanxi exam to upgrade from junior college to a university degree. It was going to be super hard.I put on my lucky red shirt and blue shorts, had a big breakfast of congee and douzhi, and my dad drove me to the testing center. There were lots of other students my age there, all looking just as nervous as me. We had to go through security checks before going into the big room with rows and rows of desks. It felt just like being in a movie!Finally, it was time to begin. The proctor passed out the test booklets and I couldn't believe how thick it was! Section 1 was listening comprehension. The recording played dialogues and passages and then asked multiple choice questions. I struggled a bit but did my best to choose the right answers.Next up was reading comprehension in Section 2. There were long essays to read and comprehension questions after each one. I read very carefully but some of the vocabulary was really hard. Luckily I used context clues and made my best guess when I wasn't totally sure of a word's meaning.Then came Section 3 which was writing. We had to write a short essay responding to a prompt. I wrote about my favorite hobbies of playing badminton, video games, and reading comic books. I made sure to use lots of descriptive adjectives and explain my reasons really well.After a short break for lunch, it was time for the grammar section. There were tons of questions testing parts of speech, verb tenses, conditional sentences, and more. Grammar has always been my weakness in English so I had to work extra hard on this part. I tried my best to spot the errors and correct them properly.The final section was translation between Chinese and English. We had to translate passages in both directions, capturing the meaning accurately. It was pretty tricky since idioms and expressions often don't translate directlyword-for-word. I relied on seeing the big picture and conveying the overall message.Whew, after 4 long hours, I was finally done! My brain felt like mush. All the other students looked just as exhausted as I did.I couldn't wait to get home, take a nap, and just veg out in front of the TV.A couple weeks later, I got my score report in the mail. I was elated to see that I passed! All that hard work had paid off. Now I'll be able to go straight into a four-year university program when I graduate junior college. My parents were so proud of me.Even though it was crazy difficult, I'm really glad I challenged myself and took that big exam. It proved that I can take on tough tasks and persevere. I have a new confidence in my English abilities now.So that's the story of my big English test adventure! It was an epic journey that stretched my limits. But I emerged victorious with new skills and belief in myself. Who knows where this will lead next? Maybe one day I'll even become an English teacher myself. For now, I'm just thrilled to be moving ahead on my educational path. The future looks bright!Example Questions and Answers:Listening ComprehensionWhat did the woman say she wanted to do this weekend?A. Go shoppingB. Visit her grandparentsC. Catch a movieD. Work in the gardenReading Comprehension2. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a benefit of regular exercise?A. Improved cardiovascular healthB. Increased muscle strengthC. Weight lossD. Cures common illnessesWriting3. Sample Prompt: Do you prefer to live in a big city or a small town? Support your preference with specific reasons and examples.Grammar4. There is an error in this sentence. Please correct it:"I enjoyed to go swimming in the lake every summer when I was a child."Translation5. Translate this sentence from English to Chinese:"My father never fails to bring me a souvenir from his business trips."篇3Hi friends! My name is Lily and I'm in 5th grade. I have an older brother who just took a really important English test to try to get into a good university. It's called the Shaanxi English test for students upgrading from junior college. He studied sooooo hard for it! Let me tell you all about the test he took.The first section was listening comprehension. There were conversations between people and the test takers had to answer multiple choice questions about what was said. My brother said one conversation was between a man and woman making dinner plans. The woman couldn't go out Thursday because she had a work event. For another conversation, he had to listen for specific details like dates, times, and locations that were mentioned.Then there were some longer listens like lectures or recorded passages. He had to take notes and answer questions proving he understood the main ideas and important details. One was a lecture about the history of the Renaissance art period.Another passage was about solutions to climate change. Not easy stuff! Good listening skills are super important on this test.Next up was the reading section. So many reading passages! My brother's brain was spinning after this part. There were shorter passages like advertisements, emails, and articles from magazines. He had to identify the main ideas and find specific details mentioned in those. Lots of vocabulary and idiom questions too based on how words were used in context.But the hard stuff was the longer academic reading passages from textbooks and journals. My brother said topics ranged from biology and psychology to history and culture studies. The questions were really in-depth, like analyzing the author's reasoning and defining tough vocabulary words from the context. You have to be such a great reader to do well on this part!After reading was the writing section. Test takers had to write responses to two prompts. One prompt asked my brother to describe a memorable experience and explain why it was significant to him. He wrote about the time our family took a road trip out west and we saw the amazing red rock formations. Such a cool experience!For the other writing prompt, he had to take a stance on an issue and build an argument with examples and reasoning. His topic was whether elementary schools should have longer school days. He argued against it because he thinks kids that age need more time for free play, sports, and family time after their academic studies. Solid reasoning if you ask me!The last part was the speaking section, which must have been so nerve-wracking! Test takers had to give spoken responses into a recording device based on prompts they saw. One prompt asked my brother to describe his favorite holiday tradition and why it is meaningful. Another had him look at a graph showing data and summarize the main points in a speech.Phew, I'm exhausted just talking about all that! It was a marathon 3-hour test with so many difficult questions across all the English skill areas. No wonder my brother looked like a zombie after taking it. Luckily he felt pretty good about how he did. His hard work studying every night really paid off.I'll wrap this up by revealing the sample questions and answers that my brother shared with me after the test. This will give you an idea of what was on there:Listening Comprehension Sample:Listen to the conversation about travel plans. What did the speakers decide to do?A. Take the trainB. Rent a carC. Fly to their destinationD. Put off the tripReading Comprehension Sample:According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a finding from the sleep study?A. Most adults need 7-9 hours of sleep per night.B. Lack of sleep can negatively impact concentration.C. Getting enough sleep improves athletic performance.D. Sleep disorders are uncommon in children.Writing Prompt Sample:Some people believe social media has had an overall negative impact on society, while others think it has been more positive. Which view do you agree with? Develop an argument with reasons and examples to support your position.Speaking Prompt Sample:Look at the chart showing countries' education spending as a percentage of GDP. Summarize the main trends you see in the data. Be sure to describe specific details in your response.I know that test seemed crazy hard, but my brother felt ready for it after all his preparation. I just hope he did well enough to get into a great university program! Keeping my fingers crossed for him. Thanks for reading about my brother's experience with the big Shaanxi English exam. Let me know if you have any other questions!篇4The 2020 Shaanxi English Upgrade Exam AdventureHi there! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. I love learning new things, especially English. My big sister took the Shaanxi English exam last year to upgrade from junior college to a university. I thought it sounded like such an exciting challenge that I decided to take the exam too, just for fun!The morning of the exam, I woke up super early because I was too excited to sleep in. I put on my favorite outfit with the rainbow unicorn on it. My sister wished me good luck as weheaded out the door. When we got to the exam hall, there were sooo many students there. I felt a little nervous seeing the huge crowd, but reminded myself that this was just supposed to be a fun learning experience.The first section was listening comprehension. The audio started playing stories and conversations in English. I concentrated really hard to understand every word. Some parts were quite difficult, but I'd had lots of practice listening to English audiobooks and watching movies, so I managed okay. For the questions, I filled in the blanks and circled the correct answers. Phew, that section was intense!Next up was reading comprehension. We had to read a few longer passages and answer questions about the main ideas, details, vocabulary words and more. One passage was about environmental protection which I found really interesting. Another one described different festivals around the world - my favorite topic! The questions were pretty challenging but I've always been a bookworm, so the reading part felt comfortable to me.After a short break, it was time for the writing section. We had to write a letter to a friend about our summer vacation plans.I just imagined I was writing to my pen pal Ali from Canada andthe words flowed easily. I made sure to use a variety of vocabulary, correct spelling and grammar. Writing has always been one of my strengths.The last part was oral English. One by one, we had to go into a room to speak with two examiners. I barely had any time to feel nervous before it was my turn. The examiners asked me to describe my family members, talk about my hobbies and ambitions, explain some simple situations using pictures, and answer some follow-up questions. Even though I was a little shy at first, I tried my best to speak as clearly and naturally as possible. Phew, I'm just glad that part is over!While we waited for the results, my sister bought us both ice cream cones from a street vendor outside. She seemed impressed that I'd actually attempted the entire exam. I told her it was just for the fun of challenging myself with something new.A few weeks later, I couldn't believe it when the results came in the mail - I'd somehow managed to pass the exam! My parents were amazed and my sister gave me a big high-five. I don't plan on going to university just yet since I'm only in 5th grade. But that exam adventure will always be one of my favorite childhood memories. It taught me that I shouldn't limit myself and should keep pushing my English abilities as far as they cango. Who knows where my English skills will take me in the future? I'm excited to find out!The End篇5The 2020 Shaanxi Zhuanshengben English ExamHi everyone! My name is Lin Lin and I'm a 10-year-old 5th grader. I have an older brother who just took the really important Shaanxi Province English exam to upgrade from junior college to a 4-year university. It's called the "Zhuanshengben" exam. He studied so hard for months! I helped him practice his English reading, writing, listening, speaking, and translation skills. Let me tell you all about the exam he took!Reading ComprehensionThere were 3 reading passages - one was about the history of the Silk Road in China, another was about environmental protection, and the last one was a short story. There were multiple choice and true/false questions to test if you understood the main ideas and details.I'll share a sample multiple choice question about the Silk Road passage:What was one of the main purposes of the Silk Road trade routes?A) For cultural exchange between civilizationsB) To export Chinese tea to EuropeC) To find a new sea route to IndiaD) For Chinese monks to spread BuddhismThe right answer is A - the passage said the Silk Road facilitated the spread of religions, languages, cultures and inventions across Eurasia over many centuries.WritingFor the writing section, my brother had to write an argumentative essay arguing for or against this view: "Grades are not an accurate way to measure student ability and potential." He wrote a 5-paragraph persuasive essay giving reasons why grades can be an unreliable and narrow metric.Here's his thesis statement: "While grades serve an important purpose, there are significant limitations in using them as the sole measure of a student's capabilities."Listening ComprehensionThere were 3 listening passages too - a news broadcast about a new high-speed rail line in China, a lecture about the evolution of the English language, and a conversation between two students discussing their summer internship plans.One of the questions was:What is the estimated travel time for the new bullet train from Xi'an to Chengdu?A) 3 hoursB) 4 hoursC) Less than 2 hoursD) 5 hoursThe right answer is A - the news report said the travel time would be just 3 hours for that 510 mile route!Speaking - Oral Presentation & Q/AFor the speaking part, my brother had to give a 2-minute presentation篇6The 2020 Shaanxi English Test was Really Hard!Hi friends! My name is Little Wang and I'm a 5th grader. I just took the big Shaanxi Province English test to try and get academic credit. It was super duper hard! I want to tell you all about the crazy questions they asked.First there was the listening part. We had to listen to recordings and answer multiple choice questions. One recording was about a family going on vacation. The dad kept getting confused about what day they were leaving. Haha, dads can be so silly sometimes! The mom had to remind him like five times. There were questions asking what day they were traveling and where they were going. I think I got most of those right.Then there was a conversation between two kids arguing about whose turn it was to choose the game they would play. Just like me and my bratty little brother fight all the time! The girl accused the boy of always picking games he likes. But he said that wasn't true and that she always quit halfway through anyway. Kids, am I right? Can't live with them, can't live without them! Those squabbling questions were pretty easy for me.But then they played a recording about a science experiment that was testing different materials. It had all these big vocabulary words I didn't know like "absorbent" and"impermeable." I just had to make my best guess on those ones. Listening is probably my worst section.After the listening part, we had to do a bunch of reading comprehension passages. One passage was about the history of ice cream! Did you know that ancient Greeks used to enjoy a frozen treat made from honey and fruits in the snow? No way, my mind was blown! The reading had fun facts like how ice cream cones were invented at the 1904 World's Fair. By the end I was so hungry for a scoop of chocolate chunk!Another reading was about this famous artist named Kandinsky who helped start the abstract art movement. I'm not gonna lie, I zoned out a little during that one. All the art words like "avant-garde" and "non-representational" went right over my head. I just circled C for all those questions when I got stuck. Oops!Vocabulary is one of my strengths though. They gave us a list of words and we had to pick the RIGHT definition from four choices. Words like "flabbergasted" and "unscathed." For flabbergasted I picked the one that meant really surprised or shocked. And for unscathed I chose not injured at all. Vocabulary words are fun, it's like learning a new secret code!Then we had to write a short essay comparing and contrasting two diferent holidays - Lunar New Year and Christmas. I wrote all about the awesome food for both celebrations. Families get together and eat their faces off! For Lunar New Year there are amazing dumpling feasts. And for Christmas, my favorite is frosted sugar cookies that my grandma makes. Writing isn't too bad as long as you have a good outline.The worst part was the grammar section at the very end. Picking out errors in the sentences and fixing them up. Why do they have to make English so confusing with all the tenses, apostrophes, and comma rules? Like "its" without an apostrophe means "it is" but "it's" WITH an apostrophe means "it is." Makes no sense! I'm still a little shaky on when to use "who" versus "whom" too. Let's just say I didn't ace that grammar part...Well, that's my full report on this crazy Shaanxi English test! I gave it my best shot but man was it tough. Guess I'll just have to wait and see if I passed or not. Keeping my fingers crossed! If you ever have to take a big test like this, study hard and don't leave anything blank. And maybe bring some snacks to re-energize halfway through. Frosted animal crackers are my favorite test fuel!Thanks for listening to me ramble on. Time for this kiddo to go play some video games and veg out. Don't you wish you could be a kid again sometimes? We'll catch you later, alligators!。

and father were Puritans(清教徒).They left England and moved to the English colony of Massachusetts in order to escape persecution(迫害)for their religion.In Boston,Franklin left school when he was ten years old and worked for his father for two years.Then he went to work on his brother's newspaper.He became the editor of this paper when he was sixteen.Because he wanted to be independent,he went to Philadelphia.There he began his own newspaper.He worked hard and saved his money.And by the age of24,he was one of the most successful men in Philadelphia In1732,Franklin published a book Poor Richards Almanac(年鉴).Most almanacs contained information for farmers,such as information about the days and weeks of the year and about the weather.To his almanacs,Franklin added wise sayings and his observations about life.Some of these sayings are still famous today.For example“Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy,wealthy and wise.”“Waste not,want not.”And“A penny saved is a penny earned.”61.Benjamin Franklin was of_______.A.English org inB.Spanish originC.French originD.German origin62.Benjamin Franklin's parents moved to Massachusetts because they wanted______.A.to become wealthyB.to live with their relativesC.to have their own newspaperD.to escape religious persecution63.Whom did Benjamin Franklin work for at the age of11?A His father B.His mother C.His brother D.Himself64.Why did Benjamin Franklin move to Philadelphia?A.Because his brother disliked himB.Because his brother wanted him to go there.C.Because he liked the weather there.D.Because he wanted to make a living himself.65.Franklin's almanacs contained EXCEPT________.rmation for farmersB.wise sayingsC.poor Richard's ideasD.A penny saved is a penny earnedPassage2Unlike Britain,the US does not have a national health care service.Most people buy medical insurance to help pay for medical care.The government only helps pay for some medical care for the old and the people who are on low incomes.The problems of those who can not afford insurance have become an important political subject.In Britain,when people are ill they usually go to a family doctor first.However people in America sometimes go straight to an expert.Children are usually taken to a doctor who is an expert in the treatment of children.In Britain,if a patient needs to see a specialist doctor,their family doctor will usually recommend a specialist,which will save more time and money both for the patients and the public fund(基金).In Britain,doctors do not go to people's homes when they are i.People always make

that everyone has a daily energy cycleDuring the hours when you labor through your work you may say that you're“hot”.That’s true.The time of day when you feel most energetic is when your cycle of body temperature is at it speak.For some people the peak comes during the forenoon.For others it comes in the after o on or evening.No one has discovered why this is so，but it leads to such familiar monologues(自言白语)as：”Get up，John!You'll be late for work again!”The possible explanation to the trouble is that John is a this temperature-and-energy peak in the evening.Much family quarrelling ends when husbands and wives realize what these energy cycles mean,and which cycle each member of the family has.You can’t change your energy cycle,but you can learn to make your life fit it better.Habit can help,Dr.Kleitman believes.Maybe you're sleepy in the evening but feel you must stay up late anyway.Counteract(对抗)your cycle to some extent by habitually staying up later than you want to.If your energy is low in the morning but you have an important job to do early in the day,rise before your usual hour.This wont change your cycle,but you'll get up steam and work better at your low point.Get off to as low 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 tasks requiring more energy or concentration for your sharper hours.76.If a person finds getting
