His mother used to 7 her summers in Ischl, a small mountain town in Austria. The Emperor Franz Josef used to spend his summers in Ischl, too.Grandma Freud, as she was called by the family, used to sit at the window and watch the crowds on Main Street.

Each passage is followed by five questions or unfinished statements. For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:A fire drill is, to put it mildly, an inconvenient exercise at the best of times. A fire drill at 2:00 in the morning in terrible weather conditions, like the one we had on Thursday night and Friday morning last, is incomparably more inconvenient. This is why writing this note to thank you all most sincerely for your excellent co-operation and the spirit with which you endured the inconvenience.A fire drill is not an idle exercise. It is an extremely serious one and can, in fact, save lives in the long run. Last week’ f ire drill has already revealed a number of important things regarding班级____________________ 学号____________________ 姓名____________________ ----------------------------------------密----------------------------------------封----------------------------------------线--------------------------------------fire precautions in the Hall. For instance, there seem to exit a number of “deaf spots” in the Hall, namely, the two rooms in Purser House and some rooms in the Bottom corridor. I have no reason to doubt that residents from these areas could not hear the alarm. I shall request an immediate examination of this problem.I should, also, remind you that it is a requirement that fire drills should be regularly carried out (at least two in every one year)and each resident should be made fully aware of this and obliged to take part. All residents must take fire precautions with the seriousness they deserve. Failure to do so can result bin fines and expulsion(驱逐)from the Hall. Thank you again for your co-operation.1. The last fire drill caused much more inconvenience because_________.A. it was in bad weatherB. there were “deaf spots”C. a big fire startedD. it was at the weekend2.

A fire drill is extremely important according to the writer for_________.A. it is a good physical exerciseB. it cultivates people’s enduranceC. it is a legal requirementD. it can save lives in case of a fire5. Which of the following was NOT stated by the author?A. A fire drill is very important and useful.B. The last fire drill received inactive co-operation from the residents.C. Those who do not take fire precautions will be fined and driven out.D. It has been made a rule that fire drills will be performed regularly.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passageAccidents are caused; they don’t just happen. The reason may be easy to see: a shelf out of reach, a patch of ice on the misfortune—frustration, tiredness or just bad temper—that show what the accident really is, a sort of attack on oneself.Road accidents, for example, happen frequently after a family quarrel, and we all know people who are accident-prone, so often at odds with themselves and the world that they seem to cause accidents for themselves and others.By definition, an accident is something you can not predict or avoid, and the idea which used to be current, that the majority of road accidents are caused by a minority of criminally careless drivers, is not supported by insurance statistics. These show that most accidents involve ordinary motorists in a moment of carelessness or thoughtlessness.It is not always clear, either, what sort of conditions make people more likely to have an accident. For instance, the law requires all factories to take safety precautions and most companies have safety committees to make sure the regulations are observed, but still, every day in Britain, some fifty thousand men and women are injured from work due to accidents. These accidents are largely the result of human error or misjudgment—noise and fatigue, boredom or worries are possible factors which contribute to this. Doctors who work in factories have found that those who drink too much, usually people who have a high anxiety level, run three times the normal risk of accidents at work.6. The passage suggests that________.A. Accidents are usually caused by psychological factors.B. Accidents mostly result from slippery roads.C. Drinkers run three times the normal risk of accidents in factories.D. About 50 000people lose their lives at work in Britain every day.(阅读1)·第7 页共16 页7. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a factor of accidents?A. Mood.B. Tiredness.C. CarelessnessD. Weather8. The wo rd “accidents-prone” (L.2 Para.2) means________.A. likely to have accidentsB. injured in accidentsC. possible to die in accidentsD. responsible for road accidents9. What can we infer about the author’ opinion of accidents?A. Safety precautions are of little use in accidents.B. Many accidents can and should be avoided.C. Factory accidents, unlike road accidents, are inevitable.D. Most road accidents are caused by just a few careless drivers.10. The best title for the passage would be __________.A. Accidents and AnxietyB. How to Deal with Accidents on Road and in FactoriesC. Human Factors in AccidentsD. How to Prevent Accidents on Road and in FactoriesPassage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage.It is not often realized that women held a high place in southern European societies in the 10th and 11th centuries. As a wife, the woman was protected by the setting up of a dowry (嫁妆). Admittedly, the purpose of this was to protect her against the risk of desertion, but in reality its function in the social and family life of the time was much more important. The dowry was the wife’s right to receive a tenth of all her husband’s property. The wife had the right to with hold consent, in all transactions the husband would make, and more than just a right; the documents show that she enjoyed a real power of decision, equal to that of her husband. In no case do the documents indicate any degree of difference in the legal status of husband and wife.The wife shared in the manage ment of her husband’s personal property, but the opposite班级____________________学号____________________姓名____________________ ----------------------------------------密----------------------------------------封----------------------------------------线--------------------------------(阅读1)·第 9 页 共 16 页was not always true. Women seemed perfectly prepared to defend their own inheritance against husbands who tried to exceed their rights, and on occasion they showed a fine fighting spirit. A case in point is that of Maria Vivas. Having agreed with her husband Miro to sell a field she had inherited, for the needs of the household, she insisted on compensation. None being offered, she succeeded in dragging her husband to the scribe to have a contract duly drawn up assigning her a piece of land from Miro’s personal inheritance. The unfortunate husband was obliged to agree, as the contract says, “for the sake of peace.” Either through the dowry or through being hot-tempered, the wife knew how to win herself, with the context of the family, a powerful economic position.11. Originally, the purpose of a dowry is to ____.A. give a woman the right to receive all her husband’s propertyB. help a woman to enjoy a higher position in the familyC. protect a woman against the risk of desertionD. both A and C12. According to the passage, the legal status of the wife in marriage was ____. A. higher than that of a single woman B. higher than that of her husband C. lower than that of her husband D. the same as that of her husband13. Why does the author give us the example of Maria Vivas? ____A. To show that the wife shared in the management of her husband’s personal property.B. To show that the wife can defend her own inheritance.C. To prove that women have powerful position.D. To illustrate how women win her property.14. The compensation Maria Vivas got for the field is ____.班级____________________ 学号____________________ 姓名____________________ ----------------------------------------密----------------------------------------封----------------------------------------线--------------------------------------A. some of the land Miro had inheritedB. a tenth of Miro’s landC. money for household expensesD. money from Miro’s inheritance15. The author’s attitude towards Maria Vivas is ____.A. sympatheticB. disapprovalC. indifferentD. objectivePassage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Is language, like food, a basic human need? Judging from the result of the violent experiment by a German King, Frederick II, in the 13th century, it may be. Hoping to discover what language a child would speak if he heard no mother tongue, he told the nurses to keep silent.All the infants died before the first year. But clearly there was more than language deprivation here. What was missing was good mothering. Without good mothering, in the first year of life especially, the capacity to survive is seriously affected.Today no much violent deprivation exists as that by Frederick II. Nevertheless, some children are still backward in speaking. Most often the reason for this is that the mother is insensitive to the signals of the infant, whose brain is programmed to map up language rapidly. There are critical times, it seems, when children learn more readily. If these sensitive periods are neglected, the ideal time for acquiring language skills passes and they might never be learned so easily again.Linguists (语言学家) suggest that speech stages are reached in a fixed sequence and at a constant age, but there are cases where speech has started late in a child who eventually turns out to be of high IQ.Recent evidence suggests that an infant is born with the capacity to speak. What is special about Man’s brain compared wit h that of the monkey, is the complex system which enables achild to connect the sight and feel of , say, a teddy-bear(玩具熊)with the sound pattern “teddy-bear”.But speech has to be stimulated, and this depends on interaction between the mother and the ch ild, where the mother recognizes the signals in the child’s babbling(牙牙学语), grasping, crying, smiling, and responds to them. Insensitivity of the mother to these signals dulls the interaction because the child gets discouraged and sends out only the obvious signals. Sensitivity to the child’s non-verbal signals is essential to the growth and development language.16. Frederick II’s experiment was violent because_________.A. he wanted to prove children are born with ability to speakB. he ignored the importance of mothering to the infantC. he was unkind to the nurseD. he wanted his nurses to say no mother tongue17. The reason some children are backward in speaking today that_________.A. their mothers do not respond to their attempts to speakB. their mothers are not intelligent enough to help themC. they do not listen carefully to their mothersD. their brains have to absorb too much language at once.18. By “critical times” in Paragraph 3 the author means__________.A. difficult periods in the child’s l ifeB. moments when the child becomes critical to its motherC. important stages in the child’s developmentD. times when mothers often neglect their children19. Which of the following in NOT implied in the passage?A. Ability to learn to speak a language is inborn in manB. Children do not need to be encouraged to learn to speakC. Early language starters are not necessarily highly intelligent(阅读1)·第11 页共16 页D. Most children learn their language in definite stages20. If the mother does not respond to her child’s signa ls_________.A. the child will never be able to speak properlyB. the child will stop giving out signalsC. the child will invent a language of his ownD. the child will make little effort to speakPassage 5Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Ask Steveland Morris and he’ll tell you that blindness is not necessarily disabling. Steveland was born prematurely and totally with sight in 1950. He became Steve Wonder ----- composer, singer, and pianist. The winner of ten Grammy awards, Stevie s widely acclaimed for his outstanding contributions to the music world.As a child, Stevie learned not to think about things he could not do, but to concentrate on the thing that he could do. His parents encouraged him to join his sighted brothers in as many activities as possible. They also help him to sharpen his sense of hearing, the sense upon which the visually disabled are so dependent.Because sound was so important to him, Stevie began at an early age to experiment with different kinds of sound. He would bang things together and then imitate the sound with his voice. Often relying on sound for entertainment , he sang, beat on toy drums, played a toy harmonica (口琴), and listened to the radio.Stevie soon graduated from toy instruments to real instruments. He first learned to play the drums. He then mastered the harmonica and the piano. He became a member of the junior church choir and the leading singer. In the evenings and on weekends, Stevie would play different instruments and sing popular rhythm and blues tunes on the front porches of neighbor’shomes.班级____________________学号____________________姓名____________________ ----------------------------------------密----------------------------------------封----------------------------------------线--------------------------------(阅读1)·第 13 页 共 16 页One of Stevie sessions was overhead by Ronnie White, a member of a popular singing group called The Miracles.

Stevie recorded his first smash hit “Fingertips” in 1962 at age 12, and the rest of Stevie’s story is music history.21. This passage could be entitled _____.A. The Music WorldB. Stevie WonderC.

Presently, we are have a 33 percent off sale on computer and software. Come in, use your certificate, and take advantage for this opportunity.Ⅵ. READING COMPREHENSION (10 小题,每小题1分,共10分)Read the following two passages and answer the questions.Passage One:More than 65 percent of a company's business comes from current customers. Those customers are not easily replaced, so it is every company's job to keep its current customers satisfied even as it is trying to attract new customers. After all, some of those new customers will come because they hear about the store from current customers.In the fast-paced world of retail, customer loyalty is especially important. So manystores are selling the same products that retailers have to offer customers something more.That something more is their customer service. Discount coupons, valet parking (whereparking is a problem), and free gift wrapping are just some of the extras retailers now offer. Another important facet (方面)of customer service is handling customer complaints. Retailers should not think of complaints as a nuisance(麻烦事). They should see them as anexcellent opportunity for some free feedback, although it is true that a small percentage utcustomers do complain unjustly. But the vast majority of customers who complain are tellingretailers what they need to hear. For this reason, retailers should (1) listen carefully,(2)respond positively, (3) admit a mistake immediately, or if a mistake has not been made,explain the reason for the confusion, (4) ask customers what they would like done, and (5)comply with their requests. Good customer service is the surest way to stand out from all of he other retailers.22. Why are current customers important to retailers?A. They shop at the same place from habit.B. They provide at least two-thirds of a company's business.C. They bring their friends shopping with them.23. So many stores sell tile same products. How can one retailer stand out?A. With discount coupons.B. Through heavy advertising.C. With the quality of its customer service.24. How can retailers get free feedback?A. By increasing profits.B. By paying attention to complaints.C. By promoting holiday sales.25. Most customers who complain areA. doing it unjustlyB. just trying to get their money back.C. telling the retailer what he should know26. If a mistake has not been done, a retailer shouldA. offer a reason for the misunderstandingB. pretend it never happenedC. get an apology from the customerPassage Two:A formal written agreement, or contract, is invaluable to employers and employeesalike. Both benefit by having the terms of their association spelled out in advance. Spoken agreements are subject to misinterpretation. While written agreements do not guarantee identical interpretations, they can help provide legal protection for everyone involved. Most businesses have a standard contract; however, the terms of the contract may be negotiable. Changing a contract requires careful attention to the legal implications, and changes should always be noted in writing and initialed or signed by all parties. Original copies are generally retained by the employer.Contracts may list penalties(处罚)if the signed agreement is broken. With intellectual property, for example, many contracts stipulate(规定)that, while an employee works for a company, ideas developed by the employee belong to the company. If the employee tries to market his or her ideas independently, he or she risks a lawsuit(诉讼)and possibly a financial penalty to make up {or the company's presumed losses.Contractual disputes sometimes are settled by lawsuits, or they may be settled through arbitration(仲裁). In arbitration, a neutral third party investigates the disagreement. To avoid the expense of a lawsuit, many companies prefer arbitration. Contracts often contain clauses that speci[y how arbitration would take place. Both parties agree to accept the arbitrator's decision as binding.27. Written agreementsA. are not likely to be misinterpreted than oral onesB. assure that the employee and employer interpret everything identicallyC. provide legal protection [or both the employer and the employee28. Changes to a contractA. should be initialed or signed by the employerB. should be initialed or signed by the legal departmentC. should be initialed or signed by all parties to the agreement29. With intellectual property, companies often stipulate thatA. if a company employee develops a marketable idea, it belongs to the companyB. original ideas belong to the employee who thought them upC. no one can own an idea30. What happens if an employee markets his or her ideas independently?A. The company may sue for losses.B. The employee will be fired.C. The contract agreement must be rewritten.31. Who can be an arbitrator?A. A court-appointed attorney.B. A third party not involved in the dispute.C. A legal advisor hired by the employer.V. TRANSLATION (3 段短文,每段5分,共15分)32.Communication skills are especially important when you communicate with people of diversebackgrounds. In addition to just writing or speaking effectively, you need to add elements of sensitivity, understanding, and tolerance in your communication.33.The two most common internal documents--those written for use within an organization-- are memos and e-mai[ messages. The memo is a business document that has traditionally been the most common communication inside a company's walls. However, with the advent of Internet technology, electronically sent e-mail messages are quickly replacing the memo asthe communication of choice.34.The tone of a letter that contains a negative message should reflect a sincere concern for the receiver's interests. Your aim is to present the unfavorable news positively and in a manner the receiver will view as fair and, if possible, in the receiver's best interests.Ⅵ. WRITING (35分)35.

绍兴文理学院2021级大一化学专业英语上学期期末考试试卷附答案
2021级大一英语上学期期末考试试卷附答案Part II Reading Comprehension (30 %)Directions: There are four 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 OneScience is not a set of unquestionable results but a way of understanding the world around us. Its real work is slow. The scientific method , as many of us learned in school, is a gradual process that begins with a purpose or problem or question to be answered. It includes a list of materials, a procedure to follow, a set of observations to make and, finally, conclusions to reach. In medicine, when a new drug is proposed that might cure or control a disease, it is first tested on a large random group of people, and their reactions are then compared with those of another random group not given the drug. All reactions in both groups are carefully recorded and compared, and the drug is evaluated. All of this takes time and patience.It’s the result of course, that makes the best news—not the years of quiet work that characterize the bulk of scientific inquiry. After anexperiment is concluded or an observation is made, the result continues to be examined critically. When it is submitted for publication, it goes to a group of the scientist’s colleagues, who review the work. Einstein was right when he said: “No amount of experimentation can ever prove me right, a single experiment can at any time prove me wrong.”In August 1996, NASA announced the discovery in Antarctica of a meteorite(流星) from Mars that might contain evidence of ancient life on another world. As President Clinton said that day, the possibility that life existed on Mars billions of years ago was potentially one of the great discoveries of our time.After the excitement wore down and initial papers were published, other researchers began looking at samples from the same meteorite. Some concluded that the “evidence of life”was mostly contamination from Antarctic ice or that there was nothing organic at all in the rock.Was this a failure of science, as some news reports trumpeted?No! It was a good example of the scientific method working the way it is supposed to. Scientists spend years on research, announce their findings, and these findings are examined by other scientists. That’s how we learn. Like climbing a mountain, we struggle up three feet and fall back two. It’s a process filled with disappointments and reverses, but somehow we keep moving ahead.21. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is to state that ____________.A) most scientific discoveries are not reliableB) mass media is misleading because it looks at the research results onlyC) scientific research is a process filled with reverses and requires slow and patientworkD) repeated experiments are necessary before medicine can be used in patients22. Publication of a scientific finding signifies __________.A) a challenge to fellow scientists to prove it wrongB) the end of a processC) the beginning of a new scientific inquiryD) the soundness of the result23. Einstein’s words are used to show that he thought___________.A) experiments have proved him rightB) scientists do not need so many experimentsC) one experiment is not enough to prove him wrong.D) scientific ideas are never free from challenge24. NASA’s announcement of the discovery of evidence of ancient life on Mars shows _________.A) the way human beings learn about natureB) the failure of the scientific methodC) the fruitlessness of human search for life on another worldD) the excitement brought by scientific findings25. It can be inferred from the passage that the media is interested in __________.A) the process of scientific researchB) the results of scientific researchC) the scientists who do the researchD) the effects of scientific research on human lifePassage TwoNormally a student must attend a certain number of courses in order to graduate, and each course which he attends gives him a credit which he may count towards a degree. In many American universities the total work for a degree consists of thirty-six courses each lasting for one semester. A typical course consists of three classes per week for fifteen weeks; while attending a university a student will probably attend four or five courses during each semester. Normally a student would expect to take four years attending two semesters each year. It is possible to spread the period of work for the degree over a longer period. It is also possible for a student to move between one university and anotherduring his degree course, though this is not in fact done as a regular practice.For every course that he follows a student is given a grade, which is recorded, and the record is available for the student to show to prospective employers. All this imposes a constant pressure and strain of work, but in spite of this some students still find time for great activity in student affairs. Elections to positions in student organizations arouse much enthusiasm. The effective work of maintaining discipline is usually performed by students who advise the academic authorities. Any student who is thought to have broken the rules, for example, by cheating has to appear before a student court. With the enormous numbers of students, the operation of the system does involve a certain amount of activity. A student who has held one of these positions of authority is much respected and it will be of benefit to him later in his career.26. Normally a student would at least attend __________classes each week.A) 36B) 12C) 20D) 1527. According to the first paragraph an American student is allowed _______.A) to live in a different universityB) to take a particular course in a different universityC) to live at home and drive to classesD) to get two degrees from two different universities28. American university students are usually under pressure of work because_________.A) their academic performance will affect their future careersB) they are heavily involved in student affairsC) they have to observe university disciplineD) they want to run for positions of authority29.Some students are enthusiastic for positions in student organizations probably because_________.A) they hate the constant pressure and strain of their studyB) they will then be able to stay longer in the universityC) such positions help them get better jobsD) such positions are usually well paid30. The student organizations seem to be effective in _________.A) dealing with the academic affairs of the universityB) ensuring that the students observe university regulationsC) evaluating students’performance by bringing them before a courtD) keeping up the students’enthusiasm for social activitiesPassage ThreeDoreen Sykora is now a junior at Mcgill University. She had a difficult time when she first began college. She said, “I was always well prepared for my examinations. But I would go in to class to take the exam, and I would fall apart. I could not answer the questions correctly-----even though I knew the answers! I would just blank out because of nervousness and fear.”Hitoshi Sakamoto, an anthropology student at Temple University in Tokyo reports similar experiences.These two young students were experiencing something called test anxiety. Because a student worries and is stressed about a test, his or her mind does not work as well as it usually does. The student cannot write or think clearly because of the severe tension and nervousness.Now there are special university courses to help students. In these courses, advisors and psychologists try to help students by teaching them to manage test anxiety. Such a course helps students learn to live with stress and not fail because of it. First students take a practice test to measure their worry level. If the tests show that their stress level is high, the students can take a short course to manage the fear. These courses teach students how to relax their bodies. They get training to become calm in very tense situations. By controlling their nervousness, they can let their minds work more easily. Learned information then comes out without difficulty on a test.Doreen Sykora saw immediate results after taking such a course. She now has enthusiasm about the relaxation methods. “Mostly, what I do is imagine myself in a very calm place. Then I imagine myself picking up a pencil. I move slowly and carefully. I breathe easily and let all the tension out. With each breath, more worry leaves me. It really works too. My grades have improved greatly! I’m really doing well at McGill now. This relaxation method works not only on examinations, but it has improved the rest of my life as well.”For Hitoshi in Tokyo, the results were much the same. He is enjoying school a lot more and learning more.31. Doreen Sykora and Hitoshi Sakamoto were filled with nervousness and fear during examinations because they were__________.A) not ready and unaware of the answersB) physically so weak that they fell apartC) subject to test anxietyD) unable to write or think clearly32. The higher the students’worry level is, __________.A) the less calm and relaxing they areB) the more difficult they will be trained to manage fearC) the more stressed and tense they areD) the longer courses they will take to manage fear33. What’s the purpose of some special university student-help courses?A) To help students to reduce test anxiety.B) To show a stress level experienced by students.C) To learn more knowledge about test anxiety.D) To have a better understanding of test anxiety.34. What’s the meaning of “blank out”in paragraph one?A) To be like a blanket.B) To be sure of an answer.C) To be relaxed.D) To be unable to think clearly.35.Which of the following best sums up the organization of the passage?A) Examples----theories----ideas.B) Problem----strategy----examples----results.C) General statement----examples----result.D) Strategy----experiment----examples.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (15 %)Directions: There are 30 incomplete sentences in this part.

Each passage is followed byfive questions or unfinished statements. For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the best answer. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage 1Every animal is a living radiator — heat formed in its cells is given off through its skin. Warm-blooded animals maintain a steady temperature by constantly replacing lost surface heat; smaller animals, which have more skin for every ounce of body weight, must produce heat faster than bigger ones. Because smaller animals burn fuel faster, scientists say they live faster.The speed at which an animal lives is determined by measuring the rate at which it uses oxygen. A chicken, for example, uses one-half cubic centimeter of oxygen every hour for each gram it weighs. The tiny shrew uses four cubic centimeters of oxygen every hour for each gram it weighs. Because it uses oxygen eight times as fast, it is said that the mouse-like shrew is living eight times as fast as the chicken. The smallest of the warm-blooded creatures, the hummingbird, lives a hundred times as fast as an elephant.There is a limit to how small a warm-blooded animal can be. A mammal or bird that weighed only two and a half grams would starve to death. It would burn up its food too rapidly and would not be able to eat fast enough to supply more fuel.1.The passage says that every animal is a living radiator because it_____.A. produces heat in its body cellsB. burns fuel to produce heatC. sends out heat from its bodiesD. requires oxygen to produce heat2.Warm-blooded animals maintain a steady temperature by_____.A. restoring heat continuallyB. storing heat in their body cellsC. regulating the amount of heat producedD. regulating the amount of heat given off3.The amount of oxygen an animal uses depends on_____.A. how much it weighsB. what food it eatsC. what it is likeD. how long it lives4.An animal weighing less than 2.5 grams would starve because it would not be able to_____.A. get enough oxygenB. maintain its body temperatureC. burn its food fast enoughD. eat fast enough to supply fuel5.What is implied but not stated in the passage?A. There is no limit as to how large a warm-blooded animal can be.B. The hummingbird lives faster than any other warm-blooded creature.C. Small animals have less skin for their body weight than large ones.D. The hummingbird is the smallest of the warm-blooded animals.Passage 2California is a land of variety and contrast. Almost every type of physical land feature, shortof arctic ice fields and tropical jungles can be found within its borders. Sharply contrasting types of land often lie very close to one another.People living in Bakersfield, for instance, can visit the Pacific Ocean and the coastal plain, the fertile San Joaquin Valley, the arid Mojave Desert, and the high Sierra Nevada, all within a radius of about 100 miles. In other areas it is possible to go snow skiing in the morning and surfing in the evening of the same day, without having to travel long distances.Contrast abounds in California. The highest point in the United States (outside Alaska) is in California, and so is the lowest point (including Alaska). Mount Whitney, 14 494 feet above sea level, is separated from Death Valley, 282 feet below sea level, by a distance of only 100 miles. The two areas have a difference in altitude of almost three miles.California has deep, clear mountain lakes like Lake Tahoe, the deepest in the country, but it also has shallow, salty desert lakes. It has Lake Tulainyo, 12 020 feet above sea level, and the lowest lake in the country, the Salton Sea, 236 feet below sea level. Some of its lakes, like Owens Lake in Death Valley, are not lakes at all; they are dried-up lakebeds.In addition to mountains, lakes, valleys, deserts, and plateaus, California has its Pacific coastline, stretching longer than the coastlines of Oregon and Washington combined.6. Which of the following is the lowest point in the United States?A. Lake Tulainyo.B. Mojave Desert.C. Death Valley.D. The Salton Sea.7. Where is the highest point in the United States located?A. Lake Tahoe.B. Sierra Nevada.C. Mount Whitney.D. Alaska.8. How far away is Death Valley from Mount Whitney?A. About 3 miles.B. Only 100 miles.C. 282 feet.D. 14 494 feet.9. Which of the following is not mentioned in the passage as being within a radius of about100 miles of Bakersfield?A. The Pacific Ocean.B. San Joaquin Valley.C. Mojave Desert.D. Oregon and Washington.10. Which statement best demonstrates that California is a land of variety and contrast?A. The highest lake in California is Lake Tulainyo.B. It is possible to go surfing and snow skiing in some parts of California without having totravel long distance.C. Sierra Nevada, San Joaquin Valley, Mojave Desert and the Pacific Ocean all lie within aradius of about 100 miles.D. Owens Lake, in Death Valley, is not really a lake at all.Passage 3Children are a relatively modern invention. Until a few hundred years ago they did not exist. In medieval and Renaissance painting you see pint-sized men and women, wearing grown-up clothes and grown-up expressions, performing grown-up tasks. Children did not exist because the family as we know it had not evolved.Children today not only exist; they have taken over, in no place more than in America, and atno time more than now. It is always Kids’ Country here. Our civilization is child-centered, child-obsessed. A kid’s body is our physical ideal. In Kid’s Country we do not permit middle-age. Thirty is promoted over 50, but 30 knows that soon his time to be overtaken will come.We are the first society in which parents expect to learn from their children. Such a topsy-turvy (颠倒) situation has come about at least in part because, unlike the rest of the world, ours is an immigrant society, and for immigrant the only hope is in the kids. In the Old Country, that is, Europe, hope was in the farther, and how much wealth he could accumulate and pass along to his children. In the growth pattern of America and its ever-expanding frontier, the young man was ever advised to GO WEST; the farther was ever inheriting from his son. Kids’ Country may be the inevitable result.Kids’ Country is not all bad. American is the greatest country in the world to grow up in because it is Kids’ Country. We not only wear kids’ clothes and eat kids’ food; we dream Kids’ dreams and make them come true. It was, after all, a boy’s game to go to the moon.If in the old days children did not exist, it seems equally true today that adults, as a class, have begun to disappear, condemning all of us to remain boys and girls forever, jogging and doing push-ups (俯卧撑) against eternity.11.The author uses the example of the Renaissance painting to show that _______.A. adults showed less concern for children than we do nowB. adults were smaller and thinner at that time, but they still had a lot of work to doC. children looked and acted like adults at that timeD. children were not permitted to appear in family paintings at that time12.In the third paragraph, the Old Country is contrasted with America _______.A. to show differences in family sizeB. to show differences in attitudes towards family relationsC. to sow two kinds of geographyD. to show two different kinds of economic relations between generations13.Going to the moon is an example of _______.A. America’s dreams and creativityB. America’s childish and queer behaviorC. why America hasn’t grown upD. why America is considered the greatest country in the world14.According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. It is very difficult for the middle-aged to live in America.B. America is Kids’ Country because the majority of its people are young and vigorous.C. Kids’ Country was taking shape in America when immigrants poured into the countryD. America is more of Kids’ Country than any other countries in the world.15.By saying “condemning all of us to remain boys and girls forever, jogging doing push-upsagainst eternity,” the author means that _______.A. she thinks people shouldn’t be so concerned about physical fitnessB. she feels too old and tired to do such hard exerciseC. American society is overemphasizing youth and physical appearanceD. what happened to children centuries ago may occur to adults in America soon Passage 4By far the most common snake in Britain is the adder. In Scotland, in fact, there are no other snakes at all. The adder is also the only British snake with a poisonous bite. It can be found almost anywhere, but prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snakebites as a fatal misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs heroically, but mistakenly, trying do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snakebites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.16.Which of the following statements is NOT true?A. The adder is the only poisonous snake in Britain.B. In Scotland there are no other snakes except the adder.C. Snake bites seem more dangerous than they actually are.D. People’s attempts at emergency treatment are utterly unnecessary.17.Adders are most likely to be found _______.A. in wilder parts of Britain and IrelandB. in Scotland and nowhere elseC. on uncultivated land throughout BritainD. in shady fields in England18.We are told that British snakes are _____.A. afraid of human beingsB. poisonous including the adderC. dangerous except the adderD. friendly towards human beings19.When will the adder not attack you?A. When you try to catch it.B. When you are some distance away from it.C. When you happen to step on it.D. When you try to pick it up.20.If an adder hears you coming, it will usually ______.A. attack you immediatelyB. disappear very quicklyC. wait to frighten youD. move out of the wayPassage 5While drunken driving may be on the decline, traffic safety experts remain baffled over how to cope with another alcohol related hazard: drunken pedestrians (步行者).Pedestrians struck and killed by cars often are extremely drunk. In fact, they are intoxicated more frequently —and with higher blood alcohol levels —than drunken drivers who are killed in accidents, various studies have shown. Forty percent of adult pedestrians involved in fatal crashes have a blood alcohol level of at least 0.10 —which by law in most states signifies intoxication —compared to only 25 percent of drivers in deadly accidents, according to recent federal data.Some types of pedestrian accidents have been declining nationally, especially those involving children, but the number of adult pedestrians who are drunk when killed in traffic has remained relatively steady at 2,500 a year. The total number of pedestrians killed annually in U.S. traffic accidents is at least 7,000 or one of every seven highway deaths.Pedestrian accidents have not received enough attention in the past, according to Kay Colpitts, who chairs a board’s committee on pedestrians. Few methods exist to monitor walking habits, she said, and researchers have been mystified about how to prevent mishaps.Studies have revealed some of the causes, which range from a lack of adult supervision for many children involved in accidents to long delays in traffic signals that may encourage jaywalking, speakers said at a meeting. The most challenging problem, however, is alcohol. Some researchers suspect that part of the problem, ironically, may be former drunken drivers whose licenses were suspended and who now are walking. Other researchers, emphasizing the larger social problem of alcohol abuse in general, say many drunken pedestrians are poor alcoholics who often face lonely deaths — and not only on highways.21.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Traffic Safety.B. Drunken Drivers.C. Drunken Pedestrian Accidents.D. A Severe Highway Safety Problem.22.Among the causes of walkers’ accidents, the most serious problem is _______.A. long delays in traffic signals that may make people cross streets without paying attentionto traffic rulesB. alcoholC. a lack of adult keeping eyes on many children involved in accidentsD. former drunken drivers whose licenses are not allowed to use for a time23.
