大学英语三级B级-阅读理解(十一)(总分100,考试时间90分钟)阅读理解I was due to take my driving test at 11: 30 am. It was a rainy morning with low clouds and as I approached the driving school at 9: 50 am, my heart sank. My driving instructor, Stan, said something, trying to drive away my fears, but I was not impressed.We set off for the test centre with an hour to go. I wanted a run round the test circuit, but we got stuck in a traffic jam, and could only drive no faster than walking.We arrived at the test centre at 11 am. Start made me watch a group of six learners emerging from the building with their respective examiners. Their instructors were looking out from two windows. We watched them drive off. They must have been feeling very nervous.Stan took me round the probable test track, pointing out the traps. The weather became even worse. It seemed to make me feel worse too. I had developed a couldn't-care-less mood, and was almost calm. We returned to the test centre in time to see the six unfortunates returning. Their nerves must have been in a terrible state.I sat in the waiting room until six examiners came in to call out our respective names. Mine showed no emotion as he asked me to go to my car. I showed none either, but the tension began mounting again.1. On their way to the test center, Stan tried to comfort the author ______.A. but it made the authors heart sink deeperB. but the words produced no effectC. so that the author could drive to the center with no fearsD. so that they could prepare for all the traps2.

The passage is mainly about ______.A. the influence of bad weather upon a test takerB. the feeling of a learner before his driving testC. the preparations before a driving testD. an unforgettable dayThe resources of the library can be helpful even when we are doing something very informal, such as trying to devise a better way to measure attitudes toward music or looking for a better way to teach mathematics. The library can be equally helpful when we are doing something very formal, such as writing a dissertation or preparing an article for publication in a professional journal. In either case, our goal should be to use the library as a useful tool to help us understand and solve our problems.The following sections of this chapter will describe specific resources available in many libraries. In some cases you may already be aware of a resource and may use it frequently and successfully. In other cases you may be completely unfamiliar with a resource. Your goal should be to become aware of what is available and to know how to use each of these resources to help you solve the problems.When educators have a piece of information that they want to share with their colleagues, they often make this information available in professional journals or at professional meetings. It would often be useful to have access to such information, and this chapter will describe the special services that enable us to locate such information.6. The library resources can be helpful when we ______.A. want to find a better way to measure attitudes toward musicB. are preparing a paper for a professional journalC. are writing a dissertationD. All of the above7. The familiarity of readers with different resources ______.A. is more or less the sameB. varies slightlyC. differs greatlyD. should not be different8.

The chapter in question ______.A. mainly deals with the ways of dissertation writingB. presents information on publishing papers in professional journalsC. introduces some library servicesD. describes some professional meetingsSome of the notebooks George Washington kept as a young man are still in existence. They show that he was learning Latin, was very interested in the basics of good behavior in society, and was reading English literature.At school he seems only to have been interested in mathematics. In fact, his formal education was surprisingly brief for a gentleman, and incomplete. For unlike other young Virginians of that day, he did not go to the College of William and Mary in the Virginian capital of Williamsburg. In terms of formal training then, Washington contrasted sharply with some other early American Presidents such as John Adams, Thomas Jefferson and James Madison. In later years, Washington probably regretted his lack of intellectual training. He never **fortable in a debate in Congress, or on any subject that had not to do with everyday, practical matters. And because he never learned French and could not speak directly to the French leaders, he did not visit the country he admired so much. Thus, unlike Jefferson and Adams, he never reached Europe.11. Why didn't Washington go to college?A. His family could not afford it.B. A college education was rather uncommon in his time.C. He didn't like the young Virginian gentlemen.D. The author doesn't give any reason.12. Washington felt uncomfortable in Congress debates because he ______.A. lacked practice in public speakingB. felt his education was not good enoughC. didn't like arguing and debating with peopleD. felt that debating was like intellectual training13. The reason why Washington didn't visit France was probably that he ______.A. didn't really care about going thereB. didn't know French leadersC. couldn't communicate directly with the French leadersD. was too busy to travel14. According to the author, ______.A. Washington's lack of formal education placed him at a disadvantage in later lifeB. Washington should have gone to France even though he could not speak FrenchC. Washington was not so good a president as Adams, Jefferson or MadisonD. Washington was not model for all Virginian gentlemen15. The main idea of the passage is that Washington's education ______.A. was of great variety, covering many subjectsB. was probably equal to those of most young gentlemen of his timeC. may seem poor by modern standards, but was good enough for his timeD. was rather limited for a presidentUnlike Britain, the US does not have a national health care service. The government does help pay some medical care for people who are on low incomes and for old people, but most people buy insurance to help pay for medical care. The problems of those who cannot afford insurance are 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 without seeing their family doctor first. 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.Doctors do not go to people's homes when they are ill. People always make appointments to see the doctor in the doctor's office. In a serious situation, people call for an ambulance. In America, hospitals must treat all seriously sick patients, even if they do not have medical insurance. The government will then help pay for some of the cost of the medical care.16. Some medical care is paid by the U.S. government for ______.A. people living in the countryB. non-government officialsC. people with insuranceD. the poor and the old17. Most people in the United States buy insurance ______.A. to pay for their own medical careB. to help to live on their low incomesC. to improve the national health care serviceD. to solve one of the important political problems18. What do British people usually do when they are ill?A. They go to see their family doctor first.B. They go to see a specialist doctor first.C. They call for a specialist doctor.D. They call for a family doctor.19. In America, seriously sick patients willA. be treated if they have an insuranceB. make an appointment with a specialist onlyC. receive treatment even without insuranceD. normally go to see an expert for treatment20. Which of the following would be the best title for this passage?A. Types of Doctors in the United StatesB. Health Care in the United States and BritainC. Treatment of Sick Children in the United StatesD. Medical Insurance in the United States and BritainChildren in the United States are exposed to many influences other than that of their families. Television is the most significant of these influences, because the habit of watching television usually begins before children start attending school.Parents are concerned about the lack of quality in television programs for children. The degree of violence in many of these shows also worries them. Studies indicate that, when children are exposed to violence, they may become aggressive or insecure.Parents are also concerned about **mercials that their children see on television. Many parentswould like to see **mercials during programs for children. And some parents feel that these shows should not have **mercials at all because young minds are not mature enough to deal with the claims made by advertisers.Educational television has no commercials and has programs for children that many parents approve of. The most famous of these is Sesame Street, which tries to give preschool children a head start in learning the alphabet and numbers. It also tries to teach children useful things about the world in which they live.Even though most parents and educators give Sesame Street and shows like it high marks for quality, some critics argue that all television, whether educational or not, is harmful to children. These critics feel that the habit of watching hours of television every day turns children into bored and passive consumers of their world rather than encouraging them to become active explorers of it.21. Which of the following statements is NOT based on the passage?A. Parents are worried about the influence of television on their children.B. Television has much influence on children.C. Both parents and their children like watching educational television.D. Some critics think that television is not good for children.22. In what ways do children suffer from television?A. They become the victims of social violence.B. They spend hours watching television instead of doing school work.C. The programs make children lose interest in the world.D. The programs make children spend too much of their parents' money.23. Parents would not like their children to **mercials because ______.A. they think that their children are not old enough to handle advertisingB. commercials teach children alphabet and numbersC. commercials help to sell productsD. they don't **mercials24. Educational television is widely appreciated because ______.A. it does have the **mercials as othersB. it offers programs for both children and their parentsC. many parents like the programs it offers for their childrenD. children can learn some school subjects before they go to school25. Which of the following can best serve as the title of the passage?A. Watching Too Much Television Is Harmful to Young MindsB. Television Is More Harmful than EducationC. Television's Influence on ChildrenD. More Education Televisions。

大学英语三级B级-阅读理解(三)(总分25,考试时间90分钟)单项选择题Task 6The sense of sound is one of our most important means of knowing what is going on around us. Sound has a wasted product, too, in the form of noise. Noise has been called unwanted sound. Noise is growing and it may get much worse before it gets any better.Scientists, for several years, have been studying how noise affects people and animals. They are surprised by what they have learned. Peace and quiet are becoming harder to find. Noise pollution is a threat that should be looked at carefully.There is a saying about it being so noisy that you can't hear yourself think. Doctors who study noise believe that we must sometimes hear ourselves think. If we don't, we may have headaches, other aches and pains, or even worse mental problems.Noise adds more tension (紧张) to a society that already faces enough stress.But noise is not a new problem. In ancient Rome, **plained so much about noise that the government stopped chariots (四轮马车) from moving through the streets at night!Ways of making less noise are now being tested. There are even laws controlling noise. We cannot return to the "good old days" of peace and quiet. But we can reduce noise--if we shout loudly enough about it.1. Why are scientists surprised by the findings in their noise study?A. Because the world is becoming more and more noisy.B. Because they have learned that noise is also a kind of pollution.C. Because noise is an unwanted waste for human beings.D. Because people knew little about the danger of noise before.2. What may be the result if we cannot hear ourselves think?A. We may forget what we have thought about.B. Our thoughts may be interfered.C. Our mind may be harmed.D. We may have difficulty using the right words.3. When the writer says we cannot return to the "good old days", he means that ______A. our society is becoming much worse than beforeB. in our modern society it is hard to lead a quiet lifeC. the old days were much happier than the presentD. it is impossible for us to deal with noise as we did before______4. From the last sentence of the passage we can learn thatA. we can put noise under control if our measures are effectiveB. sometimes we have to shout loudly so that others can hear usC. shouting is a chief cause of noise pollutionD. it is important to warn people of the danger of noise pollution5. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Only recently did people realize the harmfulness of noise.B. Noise pollution is the worst kind of pollution we suffer from.C. People are now trying to find ways to make noises as low as possible.D. The writer thinks that it is almost impossible for people to avoid noise.Task 7Life in the twentieth century demands preparation. Today, all individuals in a country must have adequate schooling to prepare them for their work as well as for their responsibilities as citizens. With this in mind, national leaders everywhere are placing more emphasis on the education of the young.In the United States, government officials, parents, and teachers are working hard to give the children -tomorrow's decision makers -the best preparation available. There is no national school policy in the United States. Each of the fifty states makes its own rules and regulations for its schools, but there are many similarities among the fifty school systems. Public schools in all states are supported by taxes paid by the citizens of the individual state.In most states the children are required to attend school until they reach the age of six. When they become six years old, children begin elementary school. After six years in elementary school, they go into junior high school and remain there for three years. The last three years of their public school education are spent in senior high school, from which they graduate at the age of eighteen.A great number of high school graduates continue their education in one of the many colleges or universities in the country. After four years, they receive a Bachelor's degree. Some continue studying for a Master's degree and perhaps a Doctor' s degree.6. At what age does a child in the United States enter elementary school?A. 16.B. 6.C. 8.D. 7.7. Which of the following is not true?A. Patents pay much attention to their children's education.B. Government officials try to give students the best education.C. There is national school policy in America.D. Many high school graduates continue their education in one of the colleges or universities.8. In most states of the United States the law requires a student to go to public schoolA. until he graduates from high schoolB. until he is sixteenC. for ten yearsD. for twelve years9. At what age do most students graduate from high school?A. 16.B. 19.C. 18.D. 17.10. Education is important today, because______A. people must have enough schooling to prepare themselves for lifeB. all individuals want to be scientistsC. national leaders everywhere are placing more emphasis on educationD. the young want to be educatedTask 8Primitive man learned that he could have more of the good thing of life by trading with other men. For example, he could exchange an extra animal skin for food, a club, or a spear. With **ing of civilization man began to use grain, olive oil, crops, and cattle as barter items. But trading with goods was inexact and burdensome. It was necessary to carry around a load of hay on your back to exchange for a dozen bushels of wheat. In about 700 B.C., a people in Asia Minor known as the Lydians decided that gold, silver, and other metals should stand for the value of goods. They invented a rough coin called the stater, which was made of gold and silver. A certain number of staters could be used to buy a bag of salt, a tool, or clothing. In this way the old custom of barter was gradually replaced by the use of money, although some primitive people still use goods as a medium of exchange.11. The best title for this passage is ______A. Primitive ManB. The StarerC. The LydiansD. How Money Replaced Barter12. The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that ______A. money replaced goods as a medium of exchangeB. with the coining of civilization man began to use grain, olive.oil, crops and cattle as barter itemsC. trading with goods was inexact and burdensomeD. a certain number of starers could be used to buy a bag of salt, a tool, or clothing13. According to the passage, primitive man traded ______A. with moneyB. with grainC. with cattleD. to enrich his life14. It is definite from the passage that trading with goods______A. no longer existsB. was inefficientC. was invented by the LydiansD. was exact15. Money replaced the old custom of barter because ______A. coins were made of rough metalB. the Lydians used staters to trade with other peopleC. money was more convenientD. crops and cattle were worthlessTask 9In the past two years, millions of Americans have suddenly embraced the bicycle as if it were a startling new invention. Annual bike sales doubled between 1960 and 1970, and there are nearly 70 million bikes in the United States today. That's more than two for every three automobiles.Of course, the bike has been around for more than 150 years, and this isn't America's first bicycle boom. A wave of bike enthusiasm swept the land in the late 1800s and bicycle production hit two million units in 1897. Then with **ing of the auto, bicycling declined, and for decades remained popular only with children and a few adult faddists.Now, national preoccupation with air pollution and physical fitness has brought the bike back to the forefront -particularly with adults. More than eight million bikes were sold in the United States last year and a third of them went to adults. The year before, only 15 percent of new bike sales were for adults.16. The word "embrace" in the first sentence is closest in meaning to ______A. make use ofB. take someone into one's armsC. containD. deal with17.

"... and this isn't America's first bicycle boom," the word "boom" means______A. a rapid increase in saleB. supermarketC. a rapid increase in priceD. shopTask 10With the invention and development of television, entertainment has grown much more visual in character and is demanding less and less use Of the imagination, considered by many to be man's greatest faculty; but its greatest inadequacy lies in its inability to exercise just those creative powers in men which are called upon and developed in the pursuit of a worthwhile hobby. This lack is not serious while a man is still fully employed in his day-to-day work which itself often gives him opportunities to create either with his hands or with his mind. At this time he seeks onlysome form of relaxation in his leisure. **es a time, however, when he must retire from his occupation on account of age, and it is then that these shallower pastimes, useful enough as a form of relaxation, might cease to satisfy the hitherto active man. Today, many elderly people are finding this to be true, and seem constantly to be suffering from a sense of frustration after retirement, which reveals itself in a short temper and slow degeneration of health, the two **mon symptoms.21. The writer criticizes visual entertainment because______A. it does not require men's creative powersB. it cannot improve our intelligence and skillsC. it demands too much of our imaginationD. it leads men to slow degeneration in health22. What is regarded as men's greatest faculty?A. Entertainment.B. Character.C. Hobbies.D. Imagination.23.

An important way of reading a large, big-city newspaper is to put it into different sections. Can you find these separate sections: world news, national and local news, sports, business, entertainment, opinions, ads? Does your paper have other sections?News stories give facts, not the reporters opinions. Some newspaper editorials (社论) come out with the writers name, but many newspapers only carry editorials without putting the writers names on.You can be a better reader if you know what to expect in a newspaper. For example, you can expect headlines to leave out unnecessary words. You can expect to find the most important facts in the leading paragraph (the first paragraph) of a news story. You can expect important news items to be on the front page. You can expect less important items to be on the inside pages.Most of all, the more you know about news of the presenttime, the more you will understand what is in the newspaper; important stories are generally presented one day and followed up on following days. So, an important way to read newspapers is reading one frequently.6.A good way to read a newspaper is to find separate sections and read according to your needs.A.TB.F答案:A7.To design ads might NOT be a newspaper reporters work.A.TB.F答案:A8.From the text we know that newspaper headlines are what readers expect to read.A.TB.F答案:B9.If you are reading for major facts in the news stories, you should read the front page.A.TB.F答案:B10.The writers suggestion to us is that we should read one newspaper frequently.A.TB.F答案:AShyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, theyare excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, “You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true.” It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteem, it is important for people to accept their weaknesses as well as their strengths.Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let’s not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.11.What does the author try to prove by citing “what kind of impression am I making?” (Para. 1)__________A.Shy people benefit from their caring about theirappearance.B.People’s shyness make them care too much about their appearance and actions.C.It’s natural that shy people don’t believe other’s compliments.D.Shy people think they are different from others.答案:B12.According to the writer, self-awareness is __________.A.a good qualityB.the cause of unhappinessC.harmful to peopleD.a weak point of shy people答案:A13.That shy people react to a compliment in such a way is ___________.A.goodB.unrealC.very reasonableD.harmful答案:D14.Which of the following statements is true, according to the passage? _________A.Shyness helps us to develop our potentialB.Shyness enables us to understand ourselves betterC.Shyness can block our chances for a rich lifeD.Shyness has nothing to do with lack of self-esteem答案:C15.It can be inferred from the passage that shy people ________.A.should find more of their weaknessB.should understand themselves in the right wayC.had better ignore their weaknessD.can get rid of their shyness while maintaining low self-esteem答案:B三、词汇与语法16.She had _____to do, so she was free.A.somethingB.anythingC.nothingD.everything答案:C17.Miss Wang wanted to know _______for the film.A.why was he lateB.why is he lateC.why he is lateD.why he was late答案:D18.I didn’t know what to do, but then an idea suddenly ________ to me.A.appearedB.happenedC.occurredD.emerged答案:C。

大学英语三级B级-阅读理解(十三)(总分:100.00,做题时间:90分钟)一、阅读理解(总题数:5,分数:100.00)What are you going to do if you are in a burning house? How will you escape? Do you know how to save yourself? Please read the following passage.Escaping a fire is a serious matter. Knowing what to do during a fire can save your life. It is important to know the ways you can use and show them to everyone in the family, such as stairways and fire escapes, but not lifts. From the lower floors of the buildings, escaping through windows is possible, learn the best way of leaving by windows with the least chance of serious injury. The second floor window is usually not very high from the ground. An average person, hanging by the finger-tips will have a drop of about six feet to the ground. It is about the height of an average man. Of course, it is safer to jump a short way than to stay in a burning building. Windows are also useful when you are waiting for help. Be sure to keep the door closed, or smoke and fire may be drawn into the room. Keep your head low at the window to be sure you get fresh air rather than smoke that may leak into the room.On a second or third floor, the best windows for escape are those that open onto a roof. From the roof a person can drop to the ground more safely. Dropping onto cement might end in injury.

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants will become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy. It is important to think about the people of a destination country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wealth and happiness of local inhabitants.Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer. On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, air terminals, first-class roads, and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money.Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, includ-ing roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money, If they are not used because there are riot enough tourists, jobs and money will be lost.(分数:20.00)(1).Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection?A. It is extremely important to develop tourism.B. Building roads and hotels is essential.C. Support facilities are highly necessary.D. Planning is of great importance to tourism.(分数:4.00)A.B.C.D. √解析:[解析] 主旨猜测题。
