Part II Reading Comprehension (40points)

Directions:There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C

and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.

Passage One

The comfort zone is our living, work, and social environments that we have grown accustomed to. It determines the type of friends we make or people we associate with. It determines a life style we accept or reject.

Young people are very adaptable; they can adjust to changing comfort zones with ease. They can socialize with homeless people in the morning and be equally at ease at a formal banquet in the evening. As we age, the ability to adapt to wide-ranging comfort zones becomes more difficult. Social prejudice narrows the comfort zone range. The comfort zone can be a decision making tool.

Comfort zones are directly related to our dreams or goals, which is associated with self-fulfilling prophecy(预言). In order to grow and change, we must first be discontent with our current comfort zone. We must realize that all meaningful and lasting changes occur first in daydreaming and then they work their way into reality.The more clearly and vividly we fantasize our dream, the stronger and more real the pictures on the subconscious level will become. Once our subconscious accepts this image and its expectation, it will go to work, searching for a way to bring it into reality. If we feel that these things are too good for us, we will find ways to fail. If, however, we intentionally imagine the change we want, build an expectation of the change mentally and emotionally, and we will find ways to acquire dream and, when mentally ready, it will arrive faster than we ever thought possible.

For some people, problems, suffering, poverty, bad breaks are their comfort zone. They find comfort in finding fault and complaining about their misfortune. The same is true for businesses. Management and workers have grown used to seeing things go wrong and expect them too. Management finds comfort in finding fault with workers and workers and vice versa.

Note: If the comfort zone we are seeking is beyond our current income, then, we need to develop a service that has greater value than our current one. Money, power and influence are not goals; they are rewards ONLY for personal achievement.

16.As one grows older, ______.

A. one’s comfort zone becomes narrower

B. one finds comfort zone more easily

C. one becomes more sympathetic

D. one behaves better in social gathering

17.What does “be discontent with our current comfort zone” (Para.3) mean?

A. Be prepared to realize our dreams.

B. Keep dreaming of unrealistic goals.

C. Picture our dreams clearly and vividly.

D. Be dissatisfied with our present life.

18.According to the author, daydreaming ______.

A. requires a clear goal in mind

B. does little good to the pursuit of happiness

C. prepares us for meaningful changes in life

D. wastes our time and energy

19.It can be inferred from Paragraph 4 that ______.

A. comfort zone may lead to conflicts

B. comfort zone is not necessarily positive

C. people tend to find fault with themselves

D. survival is hard in business circle

20.By seeking a better comfort zone, people aim to ______.

A. make greater achieving

B. make more money

C. be more influential

D. gain greater power

Passage Two

Entire cultures operate on elaborate systems of indirectness. For example, I discovered in a small research project that most Greeks assumed that a wife who asked , “Would you like to go to the party?” was hinting that she wanted to go. They felt that she wouldn’t bring it up if she didn’t want to go. Furthermore, they felt, she would not state her preference directly because that would sound like a demand. Indirectness was the appropriate means for communicating her preference.

Japanese culture has developed indirectness to a fine art. For example, a Japanese professor, Harumi Befu, explains the delicate exchange of indirectness required by a simple invitation to lunch. When his friend extended the invitation, Befu first had to determine whether it was meant literally or just a r itual, much as an American might say, “We’ll have to have you over for dinner some time” but would not expect you to turn up at the door. Having decided the invitation was meant literally and having accepted, Befu was then asked what she would like to eat. Following custom, he said anything would do, but his friend, also following custom, pressed him to specify. Host and guest repeated this exchange an appropriate number of times, until Befu thought it polite to answer the question --- polite --- by saying that tea over rice would be fine. When he arrived for lunch, he was indeed served tea over rice --- as the last course of a luxurious meal. Befu was not surprised by the feast, because he knew that custom required it. Had he been given what he asked for, he would have been insulted. But custom also required that he make a great show of being surprised.

21.According to Paragraph 1, Greeks believe that women ______.

A. Would like to give demands

B. Use more questions than statements

C. Carefully weave their wishes into questions

D. Are afraid of expressing personal opinions

22.On receiving a lunch invitation, Befu first has to ______.

A. decide whether to accept it or not

B. figure out what he would like to eat

C. pretend to show great surprise

D. judge whether the invitation is serious

23.Why would Befu ask for tea over rice?

A. To be polite by making things easy.

B. It is his favorite.

C. To avoid being insulted.

D. To end the conversation quickly.

24.Which of the following statements is true?

A. Befu was served exactly what he had asked for.

B. It would be impolite to serve a simple lunch.

C. Befu was surprised by the last course for lunch.

D. Befu acted like he enjoyed his meal a lot.

25.What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Greeks and Japanese are well known for being indirect.

B. Indirectness is evident in many cultures.

C. Meals reveal a lot about a particular culture.

D. People sometimes tell lies with good intention.

Passage Three

In western cultu re, an engagement begins with “yes” to a simple question: “Will you marry me?” These heart-stopping words often come with a beautiful diamond ring. The man making the proposal may get down on one knee. In fact, men have relied on this simple, romantic method of proposing marriage for years.

Today, this is no longer true for everyone. Consider how Justin Firestone proposed to Natalie Abreu.The couple took a helicopter tour over the black sands of Honomanu Bay, Hawaii. Suddenly Abreu saw "Will you marry me Natalie?" spelled out below with coconuts. Her answer was an astonished "Yes!"

Firestone's proposal took weeks of planning and help from a professional.But for men like him, the effort put into the proposal was worth it. Many guys want to show how serious they are about marriage through an impressive proposal. Some even want to give their future brides something to brag about.

Public proposals-- at sports games, concerts and other events --are common. But some men don't settle for their proposal scrolling(滚动)across a big screen before thousands. Millions saw Joe Uva's proposal on a reality TV show. His girlfriend, Laura O'Donnell, walked into an office and saw friends and family holding flowers. With the cameras rolling, Uva walked out from among them to propose. O'Donnell said yes, to the relief of Uva and his audience.

Other men have chosen proposals that reflect the couple's unique relationship. Such proposals take place at a favorite restaurant or involve a shared hobby. Bernie Peng, for example, programs video games, and Tammy Li enjoys playing them. When Peng proposed to Li, he made a small change in her favorite game. When she played it, a ring and marriage proposal appeared. They recently got married!

These men were confident they would get the answer they wanted. but that's not the point: Creative proposals leave memories to be cherished.

26.What will men do in a traditional proposal?

A. Use beautiful words.

B. Buy diamonds in advance.

C. Plan it for months.

D. Save a lot of money.

27.Which of the following statements is true?

A. Firestone didn’t speak out the proposal.

B. Firestone planned the proposal by himself.

C. Natalie had expected the proposal on their trip.

D. Firestone’s proposal was inexpensive.

28.What does “to brag about” (Para.3) probably mean?

A. To talk about with pride.

B. To remember someone.

C. To think about seriously.

D. To look around carefully.

29.Which of the proposals was witnessed by the largest number of people?

A. Firestone’s.

B. Abreu’s.

C. Joe Uva’s.

D. Peng’s.

30.What is the author’s opinion towards creative proposals?

A. They are likely to get positive answers.

B. They reveal men’s confidence.

C. They are beautiful memories in life.

D. They take great courage and wisdom.

Passage Four

A British teenager has become a multi-millionair after selling an application software he created to web giant Yahoo. The deal is reported to be worth up to 30 million dollars and includes a position working on Yahoo’s future mobile projects. Nick D’Aloisio, 17, started his Summly app(应用软件) when he was just 15. He was studying for school exams and became frustrated at ploughing through lengthy online articles. He created the app to summarize long reports so that people could more easily understand the content. Yahoo’s boss of mobile content development Adam Cahan said: “It started with an insight that we live in a world of constant information and need new ways to simplify how we find the stories that are important to us, at a glance.”

Nick taught himself to write software when he was 12 years old. He developed the bulk of his Summly app in his bedroom. He launched his app when he was 15 and it soon attracted over 1.5 million dollars of investment, including from Hollywood stars Kutcher and Stephen Fry.

The purchase by Yahoo makes the British teen one of the world’s youngest self-made millionaires. He believes his connection with Yahoo is perfect, saying: “To me, Yahoo is the best company to be joining right now because it’s one of these classic Internet companies. With new leadership from Marissa Mayer, :Yahoo has a strong focus on mobile and product, and that’s the perfect match for Summly.”

He says his parents will help him manage the financial windfall(飞来之财) but that he was not driven to the deal by dollar signs. “Technology has really been the driver behind this whole deal,” he said. “I can’t wait to see how it plays out at Yahoo.”

31.The British teenager has ______.

A. set up a software company

B. saved Yahoo from its decline

C. become wealthy with his app

D. develop a new model of mobiles

32. The phrase “ploughing through” (Para. 1) most probably means “______.”

B. It sums up the main points of long articles.

C. It makes people’s life simpler.

D. It brings fresh insights into the world.

34. It can be learned from the passage that Nick ______.

A. began to write software at the age of 12

B. developed Summly with his parents’ help

C. earned a high income when he was 15

D. was attracted by Hollywood stars

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案 Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don ' t think your fat cells won't notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat calls, reducing their ability to respond to insulin ( 胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term ,this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), f atty liver disease and weight gain . The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there 's“ an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good ,healthy body weight ” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem ,director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase ,Maryland. (76) But Americans don ' t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us ,according to a report form the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ,is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night ,on average. So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young ,thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “ For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night ,” says Brady. Then ,a month later ,they came back for four additional nights —but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit ,researchers got a sample of their fat.(77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “ I was very surprised to be honest ,” he says. Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “ Fat cells are actually your friend ,”he says. “They 're there to store lipids( 血脂).” When lipids stay inside the cells ,your body can utilize the fat when you ' re exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “ However ,when fat cells start to become insulin resistant ,the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream ,” Brady says. 1.According to the passage ,lack of the sleep for a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT ______ . 第一段最后一句 A.heart disease B. weight gain C. diabetes D. liver disease 2.The main idea of the third paragraph is . 第一句 A.how to write a medical research paper B. how to avoid sleep loss C. how the research was conducted D. how to conduct a medical experiment 3.What does the word “ leach ” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Leap B. Lead. C. Lead. D. Leak . 泄露

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案 2011.11.05 PartⅠReading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的)route , can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,”said https://www.360docs.net/doc/c52929277.html,urel, an architect.(76)“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.” About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat(栖息地)loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year. (77)As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too, have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process. There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet(紫外线的)signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and net are the main options available. Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don't necessarily have to treat every window,”https://www.360docs.net/doc/c52929277.html,urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.”The Jacob Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. New York is a city of glass towers. B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds. C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings. D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States. 2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds? A. Climate change B. Habitat loss C. Lack of food D. Crashing into buildings. 3. What does the word “fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Choices B. Explanations C. Solutions D. Developments 4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. A. Dot patterns B. Shades C. Nets D. Covers 5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes. B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes. C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year. D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages. Passage 2 Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage: Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations(革新)are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital(数字的),they are impatient to get on with life. The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship(企业家才能)education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.
