专升本英语阅读理解综合练习Passage 1Sometimes there are questions in our minds which we would like to ask people,butwe are too shy orembarrassed(为难的) At other times we feel it iswrong to trouble others with our problems,or are prevented from asking by our fear ofbeing criticied.Often there need be no such fear because other people haveundergone(经历)the same questionings,dous or worries as ourselves,and many adults or teenage friends are only too pleased to share their knowledge or experience with us.Indeed,in many cases they also learn something,and much unnecessary worry is prevented.You may use this Question Time to ask anything about life that you don't understand,or any question of a personal or general nature that has either troubled youfor some time or arisen recently.In order to protect your feelings,which you may not want exposed,write the question down (in capitals if you wish) on a slip of paper without your name on it.Then fold the paper and hand it to your teacher who will sort the questions out at home before the lesson takes place.He will respect the fact that the questions areasked in confidence(秘密地);they should,however,be sensible and honest ones.During the lesson the teacher will read out a question,and then call upon one ortwo volunteers from the class to offer their opinions before giving his own.Theclass should regard both questions and answers and the discussion that arises from them as confidential to avoid breaking the trust the questioner has placed in the lesson,and to make possible further discussion of similar problems on another occasion.It is also helpful to remember that the answers given represent only one or two points of view—someone else might answer them quite differently.1.Sometimes we have questions,but we would not like to ask people because____A.we are not sure about our questionsB.we are afraid of being criticiedC.we are afraid of being in difficultyD.we only believe in ourselves2.The author suggests that in order not to be known,you should _______A.try to avoid asking questionsB.give the question paper without the name on it to your teacherC.discuss the questions with your groupD.sort the questions out at home and then tell them to your teacher3.The author tells us that _______A.in class we should value the speakers' questions or answers to show our trustB.in public we may learn something to avoid unnecessary worryC.It's better to write your questions down than to ask them orallyD.only those who ask questions in confidence are sensible and honestPassage 2Chinese Mainland,Hong Kong,Taiwan Join Hands in SARS Research The World Health Organiation says the number of SARS(非典型性肺炎)cases worlide has reached 2,960.Though half of the affected patients have recovered,new cases are still being reported and the cause of the disease has still not been pinpointed.The Chinese mainland,Hong Kong and Taiwan are all among the 23 countries and regions trying to cope with the epidemic(传染病).South China's Guangdong Province is one of the areas hardest hit by SARS.It's also where the first case of the disease was reported.Observers say the situation in Guangdong has steadily improved with a sharp downturn in the number of affected patients.So far,over 83 percent of the patients have recovered and been released from hospital.“First of a ll,we need to understand that SARS is an epidemic and the human immunity(免疫性) to the disease is therefore weak.But,from what we have experienced and observed,there is no reason topanic.The disease's infectiousness(传染性)is being weakened as it passes from one group to another.”said hong Nanshan,director of Guangdong Team for SARS Prevention and Treatment.The director says the key to fighting the disease now lies in finding the cause and developing a vaccine(疫苗).This calls for concerted cooperation within theinternational medical community.So far,the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong have been working well together.The SARS situation in Taiwan offers a more reassuring picture.So far a little over 20 people have been affected,with no deaths reported.Taiwan medical experts say this is in part due to effective quarantine(隔离) of suspected patients.But mainland cooperation with the island has so far been confined to the individual level.“We have cooperated with the US Center for Disease Control and the Hong Kong Hea lth Department.Recently Taiwan officials have been to Hong Kong to learn from the region's experience.After all,Hong Kong is now the epicenter(中心) of SARS and has developed some effective ways to diagnose(诊断) the disease.”said hang Cangneng from Taiwan Xin guang Hospital.Experts from the mainland and Taiwan are pushing for greater cooperation(合作) in the field.A joint seminar by all three sides will be held later this month.Questions relating to thevirus's profile and the cause will be discussed at length to shed light on the remaining questions about the disease.1The passage mainly tells us ___________A.SARS is a disease which can not be controlledB.Chinese mainland,Hong Kong and Taiwan will cooperate so as to deal with SARSC.Chinese mainland,Hong Kong and Taiwan are the areas hardest hit by SARSD.how to prevent and treat SARS2. SARS is a disease _______________A.which can be dealt with very easilyB.whose infectiousness is weakened when it passes from one area to anotherC.which does not endanger patients' livesD.which passed from other countries to China3. According to the passage,we know that A.about half of the patients with SARS died________B.when the passage was written there were about 2,960 people with SARS in GuangdongC.there are not more than 20 patients with SARS in Taiwan and no deaths were reportedD.Taiwan would like to cooperate with Chinese mainland and Hong Kong to deal with SARS4. The underlined word“ panic”in Paragraph 3 is closest to ________ in meaning.A.be angryB.be surprisedC.scareD.delightPassage 3Clive Walker is chairman of the Wilderness Trust of Southern Africa,founder of the Lapalala Wilderness School,an exhibiting wilderlife artist and author of seveal natural history books.As such,Walker is recognised as one of South Africa's foremost conservationists(环保人士)—andallround(多才的)good guy.He has fought to protect the black and white rhinoceros—targets for ruthless(无情的) hunters because their horn(角) gets high prices in Asian countries—and through the wilderness school,has taught thousands of children from South Africa and overseas about nature and conservation.His latest project is an application to the United Nations Educational,Scientific,and Cultural Organiation(UNESCO) to have the Waterberg area in South Africa's Northern Province become a biosphere reserve(生物圈保护区).Walker believes the future of conservation in South Africa lies in education and in private game reserves.In 1981 Walker was point taking(定点导游) adults on wilderness walks.At that point,he decided he wanted t o “do something for children”through the establishment of an environmental school.“Conita and I were prepared to look at children whose parents could afford it,and those children who came from backgrounds whose parents could never do it.After that Conita and I set out to find a place that would be safe,sufficiently close to the main areas of Johannesburg and Pretoria,bemalaria(疟病)free,have water and be benefit to education on the environment.They found this in Lapalala.In the first year,30 children—10 of them blacks fromSoweto—were present to visit the reserve.Nowadays,3,000 children a year spend time there.Those lucky enough to visit his wilderness school will see—among many species—white rhino,warthogs and red hartebeests.“What made it really bad was whe n I started mixing black children with white children.”When aneighbour reported Walker to the security police and at last he was asked at their notorious headquarters,Walker said“I told them that all I was trying to achieve was to give children of South Africa,regardless of their background,an understanding of conservation and awareness that our survival dependsso much on it.”Walker survived the questioning after his point successfully,the school remained open—and at least 45,000 children and teachers have had the pleasure of experiencing the Lapalala Wilderness and its abundant wildlife over the past 19 years1. Which of the following statements is true according to the text?A45,000 children and teachers a year spend time there to enjoy the pleasure of experiencing the Lapalala Wilderness.B.In the past 19 years,it was wholly only white people who could afford such a trip.C. A special conservationist who tried to open up the Nature's attractions to the black people of South Africa ran into trouble.D. Those lucky enough students in Walker's Wilderness School will see somecommon species like as milu deer, African elephant and red hartebeests.2. What would be the best title for the text?A.Clive Walker and His Wilderness TrustB.Allround Good GuyC.Preserving Africa's Wildlife Kingdompalala Wilderness3. How many persons are exactly mentioned in the text?A.One.B.Two.C.Three.D.Four.Passage 4Jonathan James looks like just another kid about to graduate from high school.But this19yearold Swede is anything but ordinary,from the computer in his parents' home he helps the USFederal Bureau of Investigation(FBI) find out the world's most wanted cyber criminals(网络犯罪分子).Jonathan first made headlines when he and another Swede,Fredrik Bjoerck,found out the maker of the“Melissa” virus(病毒)in March 1999.He came to the aid of the FBI again on May 7,finding out the suspected(嫌疑的) sender of the dangerous I LOVE YOU” virus.The suspect was caught in Manila on May 8.Jonathan's special skills are in hot demand as officials around the world express alarm at the“virtual”crimewave.In between studying for final exams,hanging out with friends and refereeing his younger brother's football matches,the quiet,gentle teenager also gives lessons on esecurity (电子安全)to large companies.He reads a lot and exchanges information with other computer experts to know much about the latest tricks of the hacker (黑客)trade.Many companies have already tried to employ him,but he is not interested at the moment.Instead,he plans to begin law school in the autumn at Sweden's Uppsala University and start up his own e-security company.Although he works with the FBI now,his family insists he's just“a regular kid.“Jonathan is a great kid,he has his friends and he does a lot more than just play wit h the computer,”his little sister Tessa said,adding that he helps the FBI because “he likes to help”，not because he's looking for fame and recognition.When the world was hit by the “Love Bug”virus,Jonathan was too busy preparing a speech on e-security to look into the problem“Finally on May 7,I had some free time,so I began looking.”Within a few hours,he had found thesuspect and emailed his method and results to the FBI.He said his work on the “Melissa”virus,which took three weeks to solve,was a big help i n finding the suspect so quickly“This time I knew exactly where to start,I knew what to disregard and what to look at.”1. The passage mainly wants to tell us that ————A.Swedish kid helps FBI find out the most wanted cyber criminalsB.Jonathan is really a quiet,gentle and ordinary boyC.many companies want the young computer expert to join inD.any cyber criminals will surely be found out wherever they are2.

What do we know about Jonathan?A.He is a good fame hunter with various abilities.B.He is such a brave fighter that any criminal will feel afraid.C.He is an expert on security,not interested in running a company.D.He is a regular kid but does something unusual.Passage 5Former US Vice President Al Gore,who came close to winning the presidency two years ago,said he will not run in 2004,and probably will not have another opportunity to seek the White House.Though Gore would have been a frightening Democratic(民主党的) main runner,his decision to give up the 2004 race probably helped his party's chances in the general election against President George W.Bush,Democrats said.Many did not want to see BushGore Ⅱ.“The last campaign was an extremely difficult one,” Gore told CBS TV show “60 Minutes”on Sunday.While saying he still had the energy and drive to run again,Gore recognied,“There are a lot of people within the Democratic Party who felt exhausted(by the 2000 race)…who felt like,OK,‘I don't want to go through that again.’And I'm frankly sensitive to that feeling.”In nearly two doen interviews after Gore announced his plans,Democrats dutifully claimed their party had lost a top candidate,but one after another,they praised Gore for taking an early exit from a primary race he could have won,sparing them a repeat.Gore,54,said he was making his decision“in the full understanding that it probably means that I will never have another opportunity to run for president.”Party activists(激进主义分子)blamed Gore for losing despite a booming economy and eight years of a Democratic administration.Gore even lost his home state of Tennessee,a victory there would have given him the White House.1.Which of the following can be the best title for this passage?A.Gore Was CriticiedB.Gore Decides Not to Fight Bush in 2004C.Former US Vice President Al GoreD.Al Gore and Gorge Bush2. Why do you think Gore has decides not to run in 2004 according to this passage?A.Because he is quite old.B.Because many people are against him.C.Because he quite understands the feelings of a lot of Democratic members.D.Because he doesn't want to be President of US.3.What was Gore's feeling when he made his decision?A.Delight.B.Sad.C.Regretful.D.Calm.Passage 6Priscilla—Ouchida's “energy efficient”house turned out to be a horrible dream.When she and her engineer husband married a few years ago,they built a $ 100,000,three-bedroom home in California.Tightly sealed to prevent air leaks,the house was equipped with small doublepaned(双层玻璃) windows and several other energysaving features.Problems began as soon as the couple moved in,however.Priscilla's eyes burned.Her throat was constantly dry.She suffered from headaches and could hardly sleep.It was as though she had suddenly developed a strange illness.Experts finally traced the cause of her illness.The level of formaldehyde(甲醛) gas in her kitchen was twice the maximum allowed by federal standards for chemical workers.The source of the gas? Her new kitchen cabinets and walltowall carpeting.The Ouchidas are victims of indoor air pollution,which is not given sufficient attention partly because of the nation's drive to save energy.The problem itself isn't new.“The indoor environmentwas dirty long before energy conservation came along，”says Moschandreas,a pollution scientist at Geomet Technologies inMaryland.“Energy conservation has tended to accentuate the situation in somecases.”The problem appears to be more troublesome in newly constructed homes ratherthan old ones.Back in the days when energy was cheap,home builders didn't worry much about unsealed cracks.Because of such leaks,the air in an average home was repaced by fresh outdoor air about once an hour.As a result,the pollutants generated in most households seldom built up to dangerous levels.1. It can be learned from the passage that the Ouchidas' house——A.is well worth the money spent on its constructionB.is almost faultless form the point of energy conservationC.failed to meet energy conservation standardsD.was designed and constructed in a scientific way2. What make the Ouchidas' new house a horrible dream?ck of fresh air.B.Poor quality of building materials.C.Gas leakage in the kitchen.D.The newly painted walls.3. Th e word“accentuate”(Para.3) most probably means“.————“A.relieveB.accelerateC.worsenD.improve4.Why were cracks in old houses not a big concern?A.Because indoor cleanliness was not emphasied.B.Because energy used to be inexpensive.C.Because environmental protection was given top priority.D.Because they were technically unavoidable.5.Thispassageismostprobably taken from an article entitled ————A.Energy conservationB.House Building CrisisC.Air Pollution IndoorsD.Traps in Building ConstructionPassage 7More and more private schools are being set up in China these days,ending the state monopoly of the country's educational system.Although private schools are still on the experimental stage and are much more expensive as compared with the public schools,there is no lack of application for enrollment.People welcome private schools for good reasons.First of all,those schools are relieving our government of part of the burdens of financing so many schools.Second,parents are willing to send their only child to better schools even if it costs more.And having more money than the government funded public schools,those private schools can attract better teachers.They can also offer better environments including superior living facilities and more advanced teaching equipments.However,adequate money doesn't guarantee good education.If not well guided and properly disciplined,the privileged young children might turn out to be new arist ocrats,and therefore unfit for our highly competitive modern society.1. The private schools indeed have something better than the public schools but not——A.living conditionB.teachersC.studentsD.advanced teaching equipments2. Which are the reasons for people welcome the private school? ————a the government.b.They break the traditional educational system.c.More money is connected with higher quality of teaching.d.Parents don't need to take charge of children so much like beforee.Parents hope their children act more wonderful.A.a,b,cB.a,c,dC.a,b,eD.a,c,e3.

A篇In recent years, the popularity of e-books has grown significantly. Many people argue that e-books are the future of reading, while others believe that traditional books will always have a place in our lives. E-books offer several advantages over traditional books.

Additionally, e-books can be easily updated with the latest information.However, traditional books have their own unique benefits. They do not require a power source, which means you can read them anywhere, anytime. They also have a tactile quality that many readers prefer.
