ReadingA“Mom, I can’t wait to own a fast Porsche(保时捷),〞 said sixteen-year-old Steve, as he drove our old family car home after he passed his driving test. “A Porsche is expensive,〞 I replied, “You will have to work hard to earn one.〞Over the next several years, Steve tried his best to realize the goal. After high school, he won a scholarship(奖学金)to study at a famous university and graduated with honors. Later he earned an MBA degree and got a job in a large company. Then he got married.One day in 2021 his dad and I visited them on invitation. After a round of hugs, Steve asked me to stand in front of the garage and opened the door.“What a beautiful car!〞 I said in amazement. Steve smiled with tears of happiness in his eyes. “Mom, remember I once said I wanted to own a fast Porsche? Let me take you for a ride and show you what this car can do. I’ll take Dad later.〞 We climbed onto the sports car, and then he started the car. We sped up along a wide road, shot up a long bridge and performed a fast turn before we headed for home.“Wow! That was an exciting ride!〞 I said, as I climbed out of the comfortable seat. “This car is better than all my expectations,〞 Steve said in happiness.Months later, during another visit, I was admiring his perfect Porsche in the garage when he said that he had decided to sell it. I was unprepared for it and he explained that he had discovered that wanting a Porsche was more fun than having one.1.

Which of the following can be used as the title of the text?A. Wanting is more fun than having.B. Patience results in success.C. Actions speak louder than words.D. All good things come to an end.BTravel has become part of our lives. And more and more of us have come to know the importance of travel through our own experiences. Travelling broadens our mind. We may get knowledge from books, but it is limited in real life. To make up for this disadvantage, we should travel to see things which can not be found in books. To our surprise，the longer we travel, the more we will treasure our life.My travel to Xishuangbanna, a place of interest in Yunnan, is a good example in point. The journey made me enrich my knowledge, especially geographical learning. This trip provided me with the chance to taste food cooked by people of the minority 〔少数民族〕, and try on their clothes that I otherwise could not have. By making friends with people there, I came to know that boys of this minority should be, at an early age, sent to a temple to receive the education of Buddhism(佛教). That is why we often notice many teenagers wearing the clothes of a monk in public. If it had not been for the travel to Xishuangbanna , I would not have known a lot about customs practiced in other parts of China.In view of my experience in Xishuangbanna , I firmly believe that travel is one of the best ways to broaden our minds. It enriches our knowledge so that we come back home with a broader mind.Judging from the above-mentioned facts, how can we ignore the advantages brought by travelling?1. The underlined word “broaden〞 in th e first paragraph means ______•A. enlargeB. changeC. reduceD. disturb2. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Travel has become part of our life.B. Travelling makes us happy.C. Travel gives us the knowledge we can’t know in books.D. People haven’t realized the importance of travelling.3. According to the passage, which is NOT the advantage of travelling?A. It gives us the chance of leaving our work.B. It broadens our mind.C. It expands our knowledge.D. It gives us the chance of knowing the customs.4. Why do many teenagers wear the clothes of a monk in public?A. Because monks are respected by all the teenagers.B. Because they should be sent to a temple to receive the education of Buddhism.C. Because their school life is mainly in the temple.D. Because most of them will live in the temple for some time.5. What is the writer’s attitude towards travelling?A. disappointedB. worriedC. puzzledD. supportiveCA few years ago it was common to speak of a generation gap between young people and their elders. Parents said that children did not respect and listen to them, while children said that their parents did not understand them at all. What had gone wrong? Why had the generation gap suddenly appeared? Actually, the generation gap has been around for a long time. Many people argue that it is built into every part of our society.One important cause of the generation gap is the opportunity that young people have to choose their own ways of life. In a more traditional society, when children grow up, they are expected to live in the same area as their parents, to marry people that their parents know and like, and often to continue the family jobs. In our society, young people often travel great distances for their education, move out of the family at an early age, marry or live with people whom their parents have never met, and choose jobs different from those of their parents.In our society, parents often expect their children to do better than they did, to find better jobs, to make more money and to do all the things that they were unable to do. Often, that is another cause of the gap between them. Often, they discover that they have very little in common with each other.Finally, the speed at which changes take place in our society is the third cause of the gap between the generations. In a traditional culture, senior people are valued for their knowledge, but in our society the knowledge of a lifetime may become out of date. The young and the old seem to live in two very different worlds, separated bydifferent skills and abilities. No doubt, the generation gap will continue in American life for some time to come.1. The first paragraph tells us that _______.A. the problem of the generation gap draws much attention from peopleB. it is out of date to talk about the generation gapC. children and parents are trying to understand each otherD. it is very important for people to frequently communicate with each other2. In a more traditional society, old people ________.A. have their children respect and listen to themB. do not care for their children at allC. expect their children to rebel against themD. do not live together with their children3. In American society young people ________.A. do not need to find jobsB. marry people younger than themC. have better education than their parentsD. leave home at an early age4. Which of the following is NOT the cause of the generation gap?A. Young people like to depend more on themselves.B. Parents do not love their children dearly.C. American society changes rapidly.D. Parents expect too much of their children.5. The main idea of the passage is ______.A. that the generation gap needs consideringB. when the generation gap is necessary in American societyC. why the generation gap existsD. how we can reduce the generation gapDAs early as the second half of the 18th century, English writers began to witness and lament the gradual disappearance of the countryside. Now, over two hundred years later, the matter is not only of poetical interest but a matter of great urgency.The problems of ecology〔生态学〕 are among our greatest problems and there’s a lot of talk about pollution, conservational preservation. It seems there’s a lot of concern, but in spite of this there are times when we take the most incredible decisions. For example, Camley Council have chosen Beckley Field as the site for a multi-storey car park.Beckley Field is where the children play. I myself used to play there. You can go for a walk there, sit under the trees, exercise the dog. It is surrounded by new Camley, with the housing estate on one side, the new shopping center on another two, and Camley School about two hundred yards away on the fourth side.The shopping center is used by almost everyone in Camley, and of course they need somewhere to park their cars. There are three or four restaurants, too, and custom is beginning to come from other nearby towns. A car park would increase custom enormously, both at the shops and at the restaurants. So one can quite understand the Council’s wish to make use of Beckley Field. Where else could youput a car park?But why must we lose one of the last remaining green areas that we have in the town?1. According to the passage, people are more concerned about the following problemsexcept ___________.A. pollutionB. populationC. conservationD. preservation2. According to the author, the disappearance of the countryside is ___________.A. poetically interestingB. gradualC. very urgentD. a threat3. Camley Council decided to build a car park in ______________.A. CamleyB. Beckley FieldC. Camley SchoolD. the housing estate4. A car park is to be built for____________.A. more and more customers at the restaurantsB. more and more customers at the shopping centerC. people coming from other placesD. more and more customers at the shopping center as well as at the restaurants5. What is the author’s a ttitude towards the building of the car park in Camley?A. The author is strongly against it.B. The author is in favor of it.C. The author is concerned with it.D. The author is worried about it.III.ClozePassage AOne day, when I was 15 years old, I was walking in a very dark park and found an old bottle on my way. To my 1 , there was a fairy inside. She told me that I would be given two _2 . I was very happy and told her I wished to be 3 and have three women loving me _4 . She told me that 5 wishes would come true.

For often, achieving what you set out to do is not the most 1 thing. Two brothers decided to dig a 2 hole behind their house. As they were 3 , a couple of older boys stopped by to watch.“What are you doing?〞 asked one of the visitors.“We plan to dig a hole all the way through the 4 !〞 one of the brothers answered excitedly.The older boys began to 5 , telling the younger ones that it was 6 .After a long silence, one of the brothers 7 up a jar(罐子) full of spiders, worms and all kinds of insects. He 8 it and showed the wonderful 9 in it to the older boys.Then he said quietly and confidently, “ 10 we can’t dig all the way through the earth, look at what we found along the way!〞Their goal was too ambitious(有雄心的), 11 it did let them start. And that is what a goal is for—to let us 12 in the direction(方向)we have chosen; 13 , to make us dig!Not every goal will be fully 14 . Not every job will end 15 . Not every hope will come to pass. Not every love will last. Not every dream will be 16 . But when you fail to reach your 17 , perhaps you can say, “Yes, but look at what I found along the way! 18 at the wonderful things 19 I have tried to do something!〞It is in the digging that life is lived.

Many countries fought for the power andriches of the newly discovered Americas. Men introduced new ideas whichdemanded great changes in older ideas. Despite these problems and possiblybecause of them, wonderful things were done by the greatest of men.It is indeed difficult to know why in some periods you find many menof genius while in others you may find few. The "Age of Genius", however,produced some of the greatest thinkers, painters, authors, andscientists.In Italy during the High Renaissance (文艺复兴), a period of the "Ageof Genius", three famous painters started their work. They were Leonardoda Vinci, Michelangelo and Raphael.Leonardo da Vinci is famous not only for his beautiful paintings butalso for his talent in the sciences. One of his best - known painting isthe "Mona Lisa." Michelangelo was also a man of many talents. He was anartist; he wrote poems; he drew plans for buildings; and he worked withother forms of art. His best- known work is the painting on the ceilingof the Sistine Chapel in Rome (罗马西斯教堂).Raphael was known for his painting. He made well-balanced picturesout of many different actions.101.Another name for the 16th century is the .A.Classical AgeB.Middle AgesC."Age of Genius"D.Age of Renaissance102.To know why in some periods you find many intelligent men and few in other is .A.an easy thing to doB. a very difficult thing to doC.not importantD.unnecessary103.Which of the following statements is implied in the first paragraphof the passage?A.Geniuses are born talented.B.Geniuses are often produced in the same age.C.Fighting for the riches of the newly - discovered Americas produced geniuses.D.A period during which new ideas were replacing older ideas might produce geniuses.104.is famous for his paintings and for his talent in science.A.RaphaelB.Leonardo da VinciC.MichelangeloD.Mona Lisa105.Michelangelo is known for .A.his Mona LisaB.his paintings in Sistine ChapelC.his well-balanced picturesD.his contributions to scienceSometime in the next century, the familiar early-newspaper on the front porch(门廊)will disappear. And instead of reading your newspaper, it will read to you. You’ll get up and turn on the computer newspaper just like switching on the TV. An electronic voice will distribute stories about the latest events, guided by a program that selects the type of news you want. You’ll even get to choose the kind of voice you want to hear. Want more information on the brief story? A simple touch makes the entire text appear. Save it in your own personal computer if you like. These are among the predictions( 预言)from communication experts working on the newspapers of the future. Pictured as part of broader home based media and entertainment systems, computer newspapers would unite print and broadcast reporting, offering news and analysis with video images of newsevents.Most of the technology is available(可用的)now, but convincing(说服)more people that they don’t need paper to read a newspaper is the nextstep. But resistance to computer newspaper may be stronger from withinjournalism. Since it is such a cultural change, it may be that the presentgeneration of journalists and publishers will have to die off before thenext generation realize that the newspaper industry is no longer anewspaper industry. Technology is making the end of traditionalnewspapers unavoidable.Despite technological advances, it could take decades to replacenewsprint with computer screens. It might take 30 to 40 years to completethe changeover because people need to buy computers and because newspapershave established financial(财经的)interests in the paper industry.106.The best title for this passage is ./doc/3d18748196.html,puter Newspapers are Well LikedB.Newspapers of the Future Will Likely Be on ComputerC.Newspapers Are out of FashionD.New Communications Technology107.It might take 30 to 40 years for computer newspapers to replacetraditional newspapers, because .A.it is technologically impossible now/doc/3d18748196.html,puter newspapers are too expensiveC.there is strong resistance from both the general population and professional journalistsD.traditional newspapers are easy to read108.Which of the following is NOT an advantage of computer newspapers?A.They are cheaper than traditional newspapersB.They are very convenient to useC.You can get more information from them quicklyD.You can easily save information for future use109.Journalists are not eager to accept computer newspapers,because .A.they don’t know how to use computersB.they think computer newspapers take too much time to readC.they think the new technology is badD.they have been trained to write for traditional newspapers110.We can infer from the passage that .A.all technological changes are goodB.all technologies will eventually replace old onesC.new technologies will eventually replace old onesD.traditional newspapers are here to stay for another centuryPassage2Do parents owe their children anything? Yes, they owe them a greatdeal.One of their chief duties is to give their children a sense of personalworth, for self-esteem(自尊心) is the basis of a good mental health. Ayoungster who is often made to feel stupid, often compared to brighterbrothers, sisters, or cousins, will not feel confident and became soafraid of failing, that he or she won’t try at all. Of course,they shouldbe corrected when they do wrong; this is the way children learn. But thecriticism should be balanced with praises.Parents owe their children firm guidance and consistent discipline. It is frightening for a youngster to feel that he is in charge of himself;it’s like being in a car without brakes（刹车）.The parent who says “No”when other parents say “Yes”sends a double message. He is also saying :“I love you, and I’m ready to risk your anger, because I don’t wantyou to get into trouble.”Parents owe their children a comfortable feeling about their body,and enough information about sex to balance the wrong information thatthey will surely receive from their friends.Parents owe their children privacy（隐私权）and respect for theirpersonal things. This means not borrowing things without being permitted,not reading diaries and mail, not looking through pockets. If a motherfeels that she must rea d her daughte’r s diary to know what is going on,the communication between them must be pretty bad.Parents owe their children a set of solid values around which to buildtheir lives. This means teaching them to respect the rights and opinionsof others; it means respecting elders, teachers, and the law. The bestway to teach such values is by example. A child who is lied to will lie.A child who sees his parents steal tools from the factory or towel（s 毛巾）f r o m a h o t e l w i l l t h i n k t h a t i t i s a l l r igh t t o s t e a l.A y o u n g s t e r w h o s e e s n o l a u g h t e r a n d n o l o v ei n t h e h o m e w i l lh a v e a d i f f i c u l t t i m e l a u g h i n g a n d l o v i n g.No child asks to be born. If you bring a life into the world, you owethe child something. And if you give him his due, h’e ll have somethingof value to pass along to your grandchildren.111.A ccording to the passage, parents owe their children the followingthings except .A. carsB. privacyC. respect of selfD. informationabout their body112.The writer thinks that teenagers are frightened when they are in charge of themselves because .A.they don’t know how to stop a car without brakesB.there is no one to guide and discipline themC.they are afraid of being left aloneD.there is no one to ask for help when in trouble.113.W hich of the following ways is advised for parents to show love totheir children?A.Saying “Yes” to everything the children ask forB.Never embracing older childrenC.Refusing something to the childrenD.Never criticizing children.114.T he word “due” in the last paragraph means .A.something one should do or finish before a fixed timeB.reasonable explanations or plansC.what must be given to someone because it is right or wrongD.the money to be paid115.W hich of the following is true according to the passage?A.Parents prefer to let their children be in charge of their own livesat an early age.B.Children learn much by seeing what their parents do.C.Children shouldn’t be corr ected because it destroys theirself-esteem.D.It is better to compare a youngster to his bright brothers becauseit makes him try harder.Stage plays, at first, seem a lot like films. Both use actors and dialogue and scenery. But if you try to make a film by setting up a camera in front of the stage, you will find it won’t work. A film made in this way will leave the audience cold. And even worseyou’ll be wasting a powerful tool —the camera.A stage is actually a box. One side of the box has been removed so the audience can see what’s going on inside. The actors remain at a fixed audience. In the film, however, the camera can bring the audience up close and fix their attention on small but important things: a frightened look,a whisper, a trembling of hands.The camera offers the film maker freedom allowing him to move easily across barriers(界限) of time and space. He can show his action in real cities and on real farms. He can also use the camera to change the scene dozens of times in one film. No expert of the stage can do this.116.The main idea of the text is that .A.stage plays and films are two different kinds of artB.it is always disappointing to turn play into filmsC.films have certain advantages(长处) over stage playsD.the camera has made film making easy and possible117.What is wrong with making a film by setting up a camera before thestage?A.Fewer and fewer people will go to the theatre.B.The audience cannot see what is going on the stage.C.The scene cannot be changed from time to time.D.The powerful camera cannot be made good use of.118.Which of the following can show that the camera is a powerful tool?A.It can move easily.B.It can make small things look larger.C.It can show things in the future.D.It can give us a scene of realism.119.In what way are plays different from film?A.Films often use real scenery while plays don’t.B.Films can show the past while plays can’t.C.Films change scenes while plays don’t.D.Film audience can move while play audience can’t.120. A suitable title for this text is .A. Stage Plays and FilmB. The Powerful CameraC. Fewer Plays, More FilmsD. Less Waste, More FreedomPassage3If an American is satisfied with you, he will put his thumb and forefinger into a circle. That means OK. But in Brazil, the very sign is considered to be rude. In Poland, a guest usually presents flowers to his hostess. The number must be an odd(奇数) one. Besides, the hostess isn’t expected to remove the cover of the bunch of flowers. And usually, red rose is a sign of love.Usually we nod to express our agreement and shake our heads to show disapproval. To our surprise these body movements mean the opposite in Bulgaria(保加利亚).The differences in customs and cultures in the world are really noticeable. We should learn more about them to avoid them and to avoidembarrassment(窘迫). Then, would you please remember: When in Rome, do as the Romans do.121.In Poland, if a man gives some odd red roses to woman as a present, it means that he .A. will invite her to a dinner partyB. has not been in love withherC. will invite her to a ballD. has fallen in love withher122.If a Brazilian puts his thumb and index(食指) into a circle, it shows that he you.A. will be friends withB. is not satisfied withC. is willing to helpD. is satisfied with123.In Poland, it is for the hostess to remove the cover of the bunch of flower somebody presented to her.A. impoliteB. politeC. expectedD. unexpected124.In Bulgaria, if a man nods, it means that he with you.A. will have a talkB. disagreesC. will shake handsD.agrees125.The sentence “When in Rome, do as the Romans d o”means that .A.we should learn from the RomansB.we should work as the Romans doC.we should obey its customs when we are entering a country.D.we have been RomansEvery artist knows in his heart that he is saying something to the public. Not only does he want so say it well, but he wants itto be something which has not been said before. He hopes the public will listen and understand —he wants to teach them, and he wants them to learn from him. What visual （视觉的）artists like painters want to teach is easy to make out but difficult to explain, because painters translate their experiences into shapes and colors, not words. They seem to feel thata certain selection of shapes and colors, out of the countless billions。

For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the ONE that you think is the best answer.Your success in your studies will also depend upon your motivation(动机). This need or desire to achieve a certain goal can make the difference between success and failure. Motivation can come from two sources: from inside of you or from outside of you. In the first case, motivation comes from your hopes and expectations, from your desire to do something or to be someone. Study purposes that result from personal inner desires are individual, and various. If you have not already done so, you should think carefully about what you hope to gain from your studies, and why. You should set a goal and direct all your study efforts toward reaching it. A goal of this kind is important because it will determine the direction and degree of your motivation for study.Not everyone is highly motivated from within and no one is continuously motivated from within. Fortunately there is another sourceof motivation: from outside. In education the most obvious kind of outside motivation is grades. For many students, course grades are an immediate, short-range motivation for study. This is one of the reasons for examinations and grades, but they must not become a goal in themselves. Grades help to motivate you from day to day, but they are only small, artificial steps to your ultimate goal. It would be wrong to set grades as your only ambition.A textbook like this cannot provide you with motivation; that must come from yourself. But as an encouragement, it is useful to know that good study habits depend upon good motivation. And good study habits are important because they help you get more done in less time. It is not a matter of how much you study; more important is how well you study.11.

大学英语(二)复习题

大学英语（二）复习题Part I Reading ComprehensionDirections: 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.What Makes a Soccer Player Great?Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way—was it through training and practice, or are great players’ born, not made”? First, these players ca me from places that have had famous stars in the past---players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate（效仿）.In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup—three from South America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team—or a really great player—from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at game at the age of three or four.Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood(聚居区)—a poor, crowded area where a boy’s dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool which produced the Beatles(甲壳虫乐队)，had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball”made of rags(破布). And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums(贫民窟)of Belfast.All g reat players have a lot in common, but that doesn’t explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.1 Acording to the author, which of the following statements is true?A Great soccer players are born, not made.B Truly great players are rare.C Only six countries have ever had famous soccer stars.D Soccer is the least popular sport in North America and Asia2 The word ”tricks” at the end of Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning toA “experience”B “cheating”C “skills”D “training”3 Pele is cited as an example in the second paragraph to illustrate thatA famous soccer players live in slum areasB people in poor areas are born with some unique qualityC children in poor areas start playing football at the age of 3 or 4D many great soccer players come from poor areas4 In the last paragraph the statement “only one became Pele” indicates thatA Pele is the greatest soccer playerB the greatest players are born with some unique qualityC Pele’s birthplace sets him apart from all the other playersD the greatest players practice with “balls” made of rags5 The author attributes a soccer player’s success to all the following factors EXCEPTA his family backgroundB his neighbourhood.C his practice.D his heightWe were late as usual. My husband had insisted on watering the flowers in the garden by himself, and when he discovered that he couldn't manage he had asked me for help at the last moment. So now we had an hour to get to the airport. Luckily, there were not many cars or buses on the road and we were able to get there just in time. We checked in and went straight to a big hall to wait for our flight to be called. We waited and waited but no announcement was made. We asked for information and the girl there told us that the plane hadn't even arrived yet. In the end there was another announcement telling us that passengers waiting for Flight LJ108 could get a free meal voucher (凭单) and that the plane hadn't left Spain for technical problems. We thought that meant that it wasn't safe for the plane to fly. We waited again for a long time until late evening when we were asked to report again. This time we were given free vouchers to spend the night in a nearby hotel.The next morning after a bad night because of all the planes taking off and landing, we reported back to the airport. Guess what had happened while we were asleep! Our plane had arrived and taken off again. All the other passengers had been woken up in the night to catch the plane, but for some reason or other we had been forgotten. You can imagine how we felt!6. The plane the writer and her husband would take _____.A. came from SpainB. passed by SpainC. was not to leave till the next morningD. was waiting for the passengers7. The plane was delayed _____.A. by the bad weatherB. by the passengersC. because of many cars on the roadD. because something was wrong with the machine8. The passengers were given a free meal because _____.A. they arrived at the airport earlyB. they hadn't had a meal yetC. they had no money with themD. the plane was delayed9. They were in a big hall, waiting for _____.A. the girl to give them informationB. their flight to be announcedC. the free meal voucherD. other passengers to arrive10. The plane took off again _____.A. as soon as it had arrivedB. after all the passengers were woken upC. while the couple were asleepD. early the next morningNew Foods and the New WorldIn the last 500 years, nothing about people---not their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree（可可树）by South American Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Europe, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish people starved when the crop failed during the “Potato Famine(饥荒)”of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.According to an Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee bush. He tried one and experienced the “wide-awake” feeling that one-third of the world’s population now starts the day with. 11．According to the passage, which of the following has changed the most in the last 500 years?A FoodB ClothingC IdeologyD Language12．“some” in the last sentence of the first paragraph refers toA some cocoa treesB some chocolate drinks.C some shopsD some South American Indians13. Thousands of Irish people starved during the “Potato Famine” becauseA they were so dependent on potatoes that they refused to eat anything elseB they were forced to leave their homeland and move to AmericaC the weather conditions in Ireland were not suitable for growing potatoesD the potato harvest was bad14. Which country is the largest coffee producer?A BrazilB ColombiaC EthiopiaE Egypt15.Which of the following statements is NOT true, according to the passage?A. One third of the world’s population drinks coffee.B. Coffee is native to ColombiaC. Coffee can keep one awake.D. Coffee drinks were first made by Arabs.Cars are important in the United States. Without a car most people feel that they are poor. And even if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor when he has a car.Henry Ford was the man who first started making cars in large numbers. He probably didn't know how much the car was going to affect American culture. The car made the United States a nation on wheels. And it helped make the United States what it is today.There are three main reasons the car became so popular in the United States. First of all the country is a huge one and Americans like to move around in it. The car provides the most comfortable and cheapest form of transportation. With a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.The second reason cars are popular is the fact that the United States never really developed an efficient and inexpensive form of public transportation. Long-distance trains have never been as common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service provided by planes. But it is too expensive to be used frequently.The third reason is the most important one, though. The American spirit of independence is what really made cars popular. Americans don't like to wait for a bus or a train or even a plane. They don't like to have to follow an exact schedule. A car gives them the freedom to schedule their own time. And this is the freedom that Americans want most to have.The gas shortage has caused a big problem for Americans. But the answer will not be a bigger system of public transportation. The real solution will have to be a new kind of car, one that does not use so much gas.16. When do most Americans feel they are poor?A. When they don't have a car.B. When they live in a huge country.C. When they don't use planes.D. When they have a car.17. What is the most important reason that cars become popular in the United States?A. Because the United States is huge.B. Because public transportation is not so good.C. Because Americans like to be independent.D. Because Americans like to move around.18. What public transportation is good in the United States?A. Buses.B. Trains.C. Taxis.D. Planes.19. What has caused a big problem for Americans?A. A new kind of car.B. Public transportation.C. The gas shortage.D. Poor people.20. Which of the following is not mentioned according to this passage?A. Cars have made the nation on wheels.B. Cars have made the United States have a gas shortage.C. Nearly 80% of the American people have cars.D. Cars have made American independent.I don't often lose things and I'm especially careful with money, so I was quite surprised when I reached for my wallet and it wasn't there. At first, I thought it was possible that I could have left it at home. Then I remembered taking it out to pay for the taxi, so I knew I had it with me just before I walked into the restaurant. I wondered if it was possible that it could have slipped out of my pocket while I was eating dinner. Thinking about that possibility, I turned and walked back to the table where I had been sitting. Unfortunately, there were several people sitting at the table at thetime, so I called a waiter and explained to him that my wallet had fallen out of my pocket while I was sitting at the table a few minutes earlier. I had the waiter go over to the table to see if my wallet was on the floor. While the waiter was looking for it, the manager of the restaurant came up to me and asked me if anything was wrong. I didn't want to get a lot of people involved in the problem, but I knew I had to get the wallet back. I told the manager what had happened. He had me describe the wallet to him, and then he insisted that I report the missing wallet to the police. I told him that I didn't particularly want to get the police involved in it; besides, I was in a hurry because I had an appointment with my doctor in just a few minutes. I explained to him that my biggest worry at the moment was how I was going to pay the check. He told me not to worry about that. He had me write down my name and address, and he said he would send me a bill.21. Why was the writer so sure he had brought his wallet with him?A. He remembered that he didn't leave it at home.B. He always felt his pocket for the wallet before he left home.C. He believed his own memory.D. He had taken it out to pay the taxi-driver.22. According to the passage, the writer most probably lost his wallet when _____.A. he took it out to pay for the taxiB. he walked into the restaurantC. he was eating dinnerD. he was ordering his dish23. Why did the writer walk back to the table where he had been sitting?A. He was sure his wallet was still there.B. It was possible that he could find his wallet there.C. He could ask someone there about his wallet.D. He saw the wallet lying on the floor near the table.24. As the writer didn't want to get a lot of people involved in the problem, _____.A. he only told the manager what had happenedB. he didn't tell the manage anythingC. he reported to the police immediatelyD. he only told the story to the manager and the waiter25. Why did the manager tell the writer not to worry about paying the check?A. He was going to report the incident to the police.B. He could pay the doctor for the writer.C. He would send the writer a bill later for his meal.D. He was sure the missing wallet would soon be recovered.Cathy and Wayne are in their late 20's, have been married five years, and are childless. The last time a member of Cathy's family asked, "When are you going to start a family?" her answer was, "We're a family!"Cathy and Wayne belong to a growing number of young married couples who are deciding not to have children. A recent survey showed that in the last five years the percentage of wives aged 25 to 29 who did not want children had almost doubled. What lies behind this decision which seems to fly in the face of biology and society?Perhaps the most publicly outspoken childless couple are Ellen Peck and her husband William. They are not against parenthood but against the social pressures that push people into parenthood whether it is what they really want or not."It's a life-style choice," Ellen says. "We chose freedom and spontaneity (自发性), privacy (清静) and leisure. It's also a question of where you want to give your efforts within your own family or in the larger community. This generation faces serious questions about the continuity of life on earth as well as its quality. Our grandchildren may have to buy tickets to see the last redwoods (红杉) or line up to get their oxygen ration (氧气量). There are men who complain about being caught in a traffic jam for hours on their way home to their five kids but can't make the association between the children and the traffic jam. In a world seriously threatened by the consequences of overpopulation we're concerned with making life without children acceptable and respectable. Too many children are born as a result of cultural pressure. And the results show up in the statistics on divorce and child-abuse."26. What does the member of Cathy's family mean by saying "When are you going to start a family?"A. When are you going to have children?B. When are you going to get married?C. When are you going to buy a house?D. When are you going to move to a new house?27. The number of childless young couples _____.A. is decreasingB. is increasingC. has more than doubledD. remains unchanged28. "To fly in the face of" in the second paragraph means _____.A. to run intoB. to come acrossC. to followD. to go against29. Which of the following statements is true of the Pecks?A. They propose that young couples have no children.B. They urge that family planning be made obligatory.C. They think that no pressure should be put on young couples who do not want children.D. They think that there would be no divorce or child-abuse if young couples are not pressured into parenthood.30. Which of the following is NOT a consequence of overpopulation mentioned in this passage?A. Traffic jam.B. The using up of precious natural resources.C. The lowering of the quality of life.D.

His parents always had him weeding the garden, carrying out the garbage and delivering newspapers. But when John reached adulthood, he was better off than his childhood playmates. He had more job satisfaction, a better marriage and was healthier. Most of all, he was happier. Far happier.These are the findings of a 40-year study that followed the lives of 456 teenage boys from Boston.

"Boys who worked in the home or community gained competence （能力）and came to feel they were worthwhile members of society/9 said GeorgeVaillant, the psychologist (，L、理学家)who made the discovery. "And because they felt good about themselves, others felt good about them.”Variant's study followed these males in great detail. Interviews were repeated at ages 25, 31and 47. Under Vaillant, the researchers compared the men's mental-health scores with theirboyhood-activity scores with their boyhood-activity scores. Points were awarded for part-timejobs, housework, effort in school, and ability to deal with problems.The link between what the men had done as boys and how they turned out as adults was surprisingly sharp. Those who had done the most boyhood activities were twice as likely to have warm relations with a wide variety of people, five times as likely to be well paid and 16 times less likely to have been unemployed. The researchers also found that IQ and family social and economic class made no real difference in how the boys turned out. Working——at any age——is important. Childhood activities help a child develop responsibility, independence, confidence and competence---the underpinnings (基石出)of emotional health. They also help him understand that people must cooperate and work toward common goals. The most competent adults are those who know how to do this. Yet work is n't everything. As Tolstoy once said, “One can live magnificently in this world if one knows how to work and how to love, to work for the person one loves and to love one's work."1.What do we know about John?

Think of the people who belong to book groups. They choose books to read and then meet to discuss them. Now, the website turns the page on the traditional idea of a book group.Members go on the site and register the books they own and would like to share. BookCrossing provides an identification number to stick inside the book. Then the person leaves it in a public place, hoping that the book will have an adventure, traveling far and wide with each new reader who finds it.Bruce Pederson, the managing director of BookCrossing, says, "The two things that change your life are the people you meet and books you read. BookCrossing combines both.,^ Members leave books on park benches and buses, in train stations and coffee shops. Whoever finds their book will go to the site and record where they found it.People who find a book can also leave a journal entry describing what they thought of it. E-mails are then sent to the BookCrossing to keep them updated about where their books have been found. Bruce Peterson says the idea is for people not to be selfish by keeping a book to gather dust on a shelf at home.BookCrossing is part of a trend among people who want to get back to the "real” and not the virtual(虚拟).The site now has more than one million members in more than one hundred thirty-five countries.6.Why does the author mention book groups in the first paragraph?

After all, the scientist is engaged in serious research to uncover the very nature of the physical world, and the baby is, well, just playing...right? Perhaps, but some developmental psychologists 理学家)have argued that this "play" is more like a scientific investigation than one might think.Take a closer look at the baby playing at the table. Each time the bowl of rice is pushed over the table edge, it falls in the ground—and, in the process, it belongs out important evidence about how physical objects interact; bowls of rice do not flood in mid-sit, but require support to remain stable. It is likely that babies are not born knowing the basic fact of the universe; nor are they ever clearly taught it. Instead, babies may form an understanding of object support through repeated experiments and then build on this knowledge to learn even more about how objects interact. Though their ranges and tools differ, the baby's investigation and the scientisfs experiment appear to share the same aim (to learn about the natural world), overall approach (gathering direct evidence from the world), and logic (are my observations what I expected?).Some psychologists suggest that young children learn about more than just the physical world in this way---that they investigate human psychology and the rules of language using similar means. For example, it may only be through repeated experiments, evidence gathering, and finally overturning a theory, that a baby will come to accept the idea that other people can have different views and desires from what he or she has, for example, unlike the child , Mommy actually doesn't like Dove chocolate.Viewing childhood development as a scientific investigation throws on how children learn, but it also offers an inspiring look at science and scientists. Why do young children and scientists seem to be so much alike? Psychologists have suggested that science as an effort —the desire to explore, explain, and understand our world---is simply something that comes from our babyhood. Perhaps evolution provided human babies with curiosity and a natural drive to explain their worlds, and adult scientists simply make use of the same drive that served them as children. The same cognitive systems that make young children feel good about feel good about figuring something out may have been adopted by adult scientists. As some psychologists put it, “It is not that children are little scientists but that scientists are big children.16.According to some developmental psychologists, _____________ .(D)A.a baby's play is nothing more than a game.B.scientific research into babies; games is possibleC.the nature of babies' play has been thoroughly investigatedD.a baby's play is somehow similar to a scientist's experiment17.We learn from Paragraph 2 that ____________ .(D)A.scientists and babies seem to observe the world differentlyB.scientists and babies often interact with each otherC.babies are born with the knowledge of object supportD.babies seem to collect evidence just as scientists do18.Children may learn the rules of language by _____________ .
