第二部分:阅读理解(共10小题;每小题3分,满分30分)

A1 Passage 1

A foreigner’s first impression of the U.S. is likely to be that everyone is in a rush-often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands (任务). Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country.

一个外国人对于美国的第一印象很有可能是每个人都在压力下匆匆忙忙。城市里的人总是表现得匆匆忙忙不知疲倦的,为了尽快做完一件事情,他们会在店里拼命引起店员的注意或者用胳膊肘推搡别人。白天匆忙就餐也是这个国家生活节奏的一个部分。

Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.

工作时间被认为是很珍贵的。在一些公共饮食场所,其他人会等在你旁边等你吃完,这样大家都可以得到服务,并赶在规定的时间内回去工作。每个人都会尽快给下一个人腾出地方。如果你不这样,侍者会催促你的。

You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles, brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain courtesy point.

你会发现司机也都很匆忙,人们从你身边匆匆走过。你会错过一些微笑,简短的交谈和一些与陌生人的小礼节。不要在意,这是因为他们非常珍惜时间,而且他们认为一旦太注重这些社交礼节就是浪费时间。

The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse.” We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some returnbe this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter of pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.

对时间的观念还会影响到我们对耐心的理解。在美国价值体系中,耐心并不是首要考虑的。我们中的很多人被称为“脾气火爆”。如果我们觉得时间在毫无意义的溜走,既没有娱乐价值,工作价值,也不在休息,那就会开始不停地徘徊。那些来自时间观念不同的国家的人发现他们在商业和日常生活中最困难的就是对时间节奏的适应。

Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a café or coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate a business colleague through social courtesies. Since we generally assess and probe professionally rather than socially, we start talking business very quickly. (348 words)

许多刚到美国来的人都会想念他们在商业会谈中一些开场礼节。举个例子,他们会想念欢迎你到来而泡的一杯茶或咖啡这样的社交礼仪,这在他们国家是常规礼仪。他们会想念在咖啡屋悠闲的会谈。而通常,美国人不会与来访者在这么悠闲的环境中进行一些冗长的小会谈。对于同事,我们总是看他过去的表现而不是与他的社交礼仪。因为我们一般都是更注重专业性的,而不是社交性的,因此我们总是很快进入正题。

11. Which of the following statements is wrong? ___D_______ 以下哪项陈述是错误的?

A. Americans seem to be always under pressure.

B. Americans attach less importance to patience.

C. Americans don’t care much about ritual socializing.

D. Americans are impolite to their business colleagues. 美国人对他们的同事不礼貌。

12. In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority” means ___B_______.第四段中的“a high priority”是什么意思?

A. a less important thing

B. a first concern 要首要考虑的。

C. a good business

D. an attractive gift

13. Americans evaluate a business colleague _____D_____.美国人评价他们的同事是根据__________。

A. through social courtesy

B. through prolonged business talks

C. by establishing business relations

D. by learning about their past performance他们过去的表现。

14. This passage mainly talks about ____A______. 本文主要讲了___________。

A. how Americans treasure their time 美国人是怎样珍惜时间的。

B. how busy Americans are every day

C. how Americans do business with foreigners

D. what American way of life is like

15. We can infer from the passage that the author’s tone in writing is __C_________.

从本文我们可以看出作者写作的口吻是___________。

A. critical

B. ironical

C. appreciative欣赏的。

D. objective

A2 Passage 2

A characteristic of American culture that has become almost a tradition is to respect the self-made man —the man who has risen to the top through his own efforts, usually beginning by working with his hands. While the leader in business or industry or the college professor occupies a higher social position and commands greater respect in the community than the common laborer or even the skilled factory worker, he may take pains to point out that his father started life in America as a farmer or laborer of some sort.

美国文化的一个特点,并且几乎成为美国的一项传统的是对自我奋斗的人的尊敬――通过自己的努力到达顶峰,通常是白手起家。然而公司,企业的领导,社会地位很高,在社区中获得比一般工人或工厂技术人员更多的尊敬的大学教授,都不愿说出自己的父亲在美国是从一个农民,工人这类人开始奋斗的。

This attitude toward manual(体力的)labor is now still seen many aspects of American life. One is invited to dinner at a home that is not only comfortably but even luxuriously(豪华地)furnished and in which there is every evidence of the fact the family has been able to afford foreign travel, expensive hobbies, and college education for the children; yet the hostess probably will cook the dinner herself, will serve it herself and will wash dishes afterward, furthermore the dinner will not consist merely of something quickly and easily assembled from contents of various cans and a cake or a pie bought at the nearby bakery. On the contrary, the hostess usually takes pride in careful preparation of special dishes. A professional may talk about washing the car, digging in his flowerbeds, painting the house. His wife may even help with these things, just as he often helps her with the dishwashing. The son who is away at college may wait on table and wash dishes for his living, or during the summer he may work with a construction gang on a highway in order to pay for his education.

这种对体力劳动的尊敬在美国生活的很多地方都能看到。一个人被邀请到一户家庭赴宴,这户家庭装潢不只舒适,可以说是豪华,处处可证明这家人支付的起国外旅行,奢侈的爱好和孩子的大学教育。但是这样的女主人很有可能自己做饭招待客人,然后洗刷餐具,并且这样的宴会不会仅仅提供快餐式的罐头食品,从附近面包房买的蛋糕或派。相反的,女主人通常为精心准备特别的菜肴而感到自豪。男主人会谈论自己如何洗车,在花房劳作,粉刷房子,他的儿子在外地上大学,做餐厅侍应生,洗盘子来供自己生活花费,或者暑假的时候为建筑队在高速公路工作赚钱付学费。

11. From paragraph 1, we know that in America _______.从第一段我们可以知道在美国_______?A

A. people tend to have a high opinion of the self-made man人们对自我奋斗的人评价很高

B. people can always rise to the top through their own efforts

C. college professors win great respect from common workers

D. people feel painful to mention their fathers as labors

12. According to the passage, the hostess cooks dinner herself mainly because _______.B

从这篇文章来看,女主人自己做饭主要是因为_______?

A. servants in American are hard to get

B. she takes pride in what she can do herself 她对自己可以做的事情感到自豪

C. she can hardly afford servants

D. It is easy to prepare a meal with canned food

13. The expression “wait on table” in the second paragraph means “_______”.D

第二段中,词组“等在桌旁”的意思是什么?

A. work in a furniture shop

B. keep accounts for a bar

C. wait to lay the table

D. serve customers in a restaurant在餐厅为客人服务

14. The author’s attitude towards manual(体力的)labor is _______.作者对体力劳动者的态度如何?A

A. positive 积极的

B. negative

C. humorous

D. critical

15. Which of the following may serve as the best title of the passage? 下面那项最适合作这篇文章的题目?B

A. A Respectable Self-made Family.

B. American Attitude toward Manual Labor. 美国人对体力劳动者的态度

C. Characteristics of American Culture.

D. The Development of Manual Labor.

B3 Passage 3

Britain and France are separated by the English Channel, a body of water that can be crossed in as few as 20 minutes. But the cultures of

the two countries sometimes seem to be miles apart.

英国和法国被英吉利海峡阻隔,游泳穿越该海峡只要不到20分钟的时间。但这两个国家的文化有时相差十万八千里。

Last Thursday Britain and France celebrated the 100th anniversary(周年纪念)of the signing of a friendship agreement called the Entente

Cordiality. The agreement marked a new beginning for the countries following centuries of wars and love-hate partnership.

上星期四,英国和法国庆祝了《友好协议》签订100周年的纪念活动。该协议标志着两个国家在经历了几个世纪的战争和爱恨交织的关系后的新篇章。

But their relationship has been ups and downs over the past century. Just last year, there were fierce disagreements over the Iraq war-which British Prime Minister Tony Blair supported despite French President Jacques Chirac speaking out against it. This discomfort is expressed in Blair and Chirac’s body language at international meetings. While the French leader often greets German Chancellor Gerhard

Schroeder with a hug(拥抱), Blair just receives a handshake. However, some political experts say the war in Iraq could in fact have helped ties.

但他们的关系在上个世纪也经历了几番起落。仅去年,对伊拉克战争问题进行了激烈的争论-英国首相布莱尔支持而法国总统希拉克反对。国际会议中,这种别扭在布莱尔和希拉克的身体语言中表现得很明显。当法国领导人频频与德国总理格哈特〃施罗德拥抱时,布莱尔只得到了握手。然而,有些政治专家说正是伊拉克战争促进了两国的关系。

The history of divisions may well be because of the very different ways in which the two sides see the world. But this doesn’t stop 12

million Britons taking holidays in France each year. However, only 3 million French come in the opposite direction. Surveys(调查)show that most French people feel closer to the Germans than they do to the British. And the research carried out in Britain has found that only a third of the population believes the French can be trusted. Perhaps this bad feeling comes because the British dislike France’s close relationship with Germany, or because the French are not happy with Britain’s close links with the US.

这种历来的分离也许是好的,因为这两个国家对世界的看法完全不同。但是这并没有阻隔1200万的英国人每年到法国度假。而法国仅有300万的人民去英国度假。调查显示大多数法国人对德国人比对英国人亲切。并且在英国进行的调查显示仅有1/3的英国人信任法国人。也许这种坏的感觉是因为英国人不喜欢法国跟德国的亲密关系,或者因为法国对英国和美国的亲密关系感到不悦。

Whatever the answer is, as both sides celebrate 100 years of “doubtful friendship”, they are at least able to make jokes about each other.

Here’s one: What’s the best thing about Britain’s relationship with France? The English Channel. (320 words)

不论答案是什么,双方能在一起庆祝这种“不确定的友好关系”100周年,至少证明他们会相互开玩笑了。其中一条就是:英国与法国的关系的最好见证是什么?是英吉利海峡。

11. For centuries, the relationship between Britain and France is ____D________.

A. friendly

B. impolite

A. Germany; America

B. America; Germany

C. Germany; Germany

14. ____________ are more interested in having holidays in ____D________.英国人更喜欢到法国度假。

A. American peopl e…Britain

B. British people …Germany

C. French people …Britain

D. British people …France

15. What does the last sentence mean? 文章的最后一句的意思是什么?C

A. As long as the English Channel exists, no further disagreement will form between France and Britain.

B. The English Channel can prevent anything unfriendly happening in both France and Britain.

C. France and Britain are near neighbors, and this will help balance the relationship between them.

法国和英国是一衣带水的邻邦,这会帮助两国平衡他们之间的关系。

D. The English Channel is the largest enemy between France and Britain.

B4 Passage 4

By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others-they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation’s consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us – an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.

就定义而言,英雄之所以与众不同是因为他们有非凡的勇气、取得了卓著的成就、常常为他人的利益而做出牺牲——他们是我们评价别人的标准。他们是大家公认的对我们国家意识的形成和我们国家的发展,还有对他们的崇拜者的一生起了重大作用的人。可是,有人说,我们的时代是很难出现真正英雄的时代,英雄主义这一概念本身我们就难以理解——它已经成为历史。有些人坚持说,由于冷战的结束和美国对外的和睦,我们的时代本质上不是一个英勇豪壮的时代。更进一步地说,总体犯罪率正在降低,经济的发展与增长已经缓解了贫困,医疗科学也在不断的进步。

Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity(明星), who

are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That’s hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced

marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death – such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

给文化偶像下定义就更难了,但是我们看到他们就认识了他们。他们超越了名流,成为传奇式人物,甚至在某种程度上已是神话式的人物。但究竟是哪些因素使有些人成为偶像,另一些人仅成了名流呢?这就太难说了。部分原因是他们的生平带有传奇故事的色彩。比如说,年轻貌美的戴安娜〃史宾塞,19岁时嫁给了王子,放弃了婚姻与王权,却在找到真爱的那一刻死去了。漂亮的长相当然有用,另外,在媒体的炒作下某种难以描述的、特殊的个人魅力也起作用。然而悲剧性地过早离开这个世界,却是造成偶像最重要的因素——例如:小马丁〃路德〃金、约翰〃F〃肯尼迪和戴安娜王妃。

C5 Passage 5

Community service is an important component of education here at our university. We encourage all students to volunteer for at least one community activity before they graduate. A new community program called “One On One” helps elementary students who’ve fallen behind. Your education majors might be especially interested in it because it offers the opportunity to do some teaching, that is, tutoring in math and English.

社区服务是我们大学教育的一个重要的部分。我们鼓励所有的学生在毕业前至少从事一项社区活动。一项新的叫做“一对一”的社区计划是用于帮助那些落后的小学生的。读教育专业的学生也许对这项计划尤其感兴趣,因为它为你提供了教学(教数学和英语)的机会。

You’d have to volunteer two hours a week for one semester. You can choose to help a child with math, English, or both. Half-hour lessons are fine, so you could do a half hour of each subject two days a week.

你在一个学期内每周得自愿工作两小时。你可以选择教小孩数学,英语,或两者都教。一节课半小时比较好,因此你可以每周教两天,每次每门课半小时。

Professor Dodge will act as a mentor to the tutor s —he’ll be available to help you with lesson plans or to offer suggestions for activities. He has office hours every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon. You can sign up for the program with him and begin the tutoring next week.

道奇教授将担任这些家庭教师的顾问。他会帮你制订教学计划或提供活动的建议。他的办公时间是每周二和周四下午。你可以在他那签约参与这个计划并于下周开始工作。

If you’d like to sign up, or if you have any questions, stop by Professor Dodge’s office this week. (220 words)

H6 Passage 6

How men first learnt to invent words is unknown; in other words, the origin of language is a mystery. All we really know is that men, unlike animals, somehow invented certain sounds to express thought and feelings, actions and things, so that they could communicate with each other; and that later they agreed upon certain signs, called letters, which could be combined to present those sounds, and which could be

written down. Those sounds, whether spoken or written in letters, we call words.

人们最初是如何发明单词的不得而知,换句话说,语言的起源是个秘密。所有我们所知道的只是,人,不同于动物,不知怎么发明了某些声音来表达思想、情感、行为和物质,以便相互交流;后来统一了某些被称为字母的符号,这些字母可以连起来代表那些声音,可以写下来。我们把那些声音叫做单词,不管他们是口语还是书面语。

The power of words, then, lies in their associations-the thing they bring up before our minds. Words become filled with meaning for us by experience; and the longer we live, the more certain words recall to us the glad and sad events of our past; and the more we read and learn, the more the number of words that mean something increases.

文字的力量在于其联系性-它们把这些联系性带到我们的头脑中。通过经历,单词对我们充满了意义。我们活得越久,某些单词就越能使我们回忆起过去的喜怒哀乐;我们越是阅读和学习,有意义的单词数量就越增加。

Great writers are those who not only have great thoughts but also express these thoughts in words which appeal powerfully to our minds and emotions. This charming and telling use of words is what we call literary style. Above all, the real poet is a master of words. He can convey his meaning in words which sing like music and which by their position and association can move men to tears. We should therefore learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar.

伟大的作家是那些不仅具有伟大思想而且能用词汇来表达这些思想的人,他们的思想强烈地震撼着我们的心灵和情感。单词的这种美妙和寓意用法就是我们所谓的文学性。总之,真正的诗人是文字的掌握着。他可以用音乐般的词汇来表达自己的意思,这些词汇凭借其所用环境和联系性能让人感动得流泪。因此,我们应该学会仔细选择所用词汇并准确使用,否则会使我们说的话可笑又粗俗。

6. The origin of language is __D_____. 语言的起源是:

A. a legend handed down from the past

I7 Passage 7

It has been reported that in colleges across the United States, the daytime serial drama known as the soap opera has suddenly become “in”. Between the hours of 11 a. m. and 4:30 p. m., college television lounges are filled with soap opera fans who can’t wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters.

据报道,在美国大学里,被称为肥皂剧的日间系列剧突然“火”了起来。上午11点至下午4:30,大学电视观看室里挤满了肥皂剧迷,他们急着想看自己所崇拜的偶像的下一集生活剧。

Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they’re a youth favorite. When school is out, high-school students are in front of their TV sets. One young working woman admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up watching her favorite serials. During the 1960’s, it was uncommon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was very different from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importance.

其实,肥皂剧不仅仅是大学生最喜爱的节目,也是年轻人最喜爱的。放学后,中学生都挤在电视机前观看节目。有一个年轻的职业妇女坦诚说起曾经拒绝了一份薪水不错的工作而不愿放弃观看最喜爱的系列剧。20世纪60年代年轻人很少看肥皂剧。那时的情况与现在很不相同。那是很严肃的时期,人们所谈的都是关于很重要的社会大事。

Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people want to be happy. It may seem strange that they should turn to soap opera, which is known for showing trouble in people’s lives. But soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who, like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chance to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems.

现在,严肃已被娱乐取代。年轻人想寻找快乐。如果他们想看表现生活烦恼的肥皂剧就会显得很奇怪。但肥皂剧是令人快乐的。年轻人可以模仿肥皂剧里的人物,这些人物像大学生观众一样,在寻找快乐的爱情,也许还没找到。肥皂剧给年轻人一个贴近人们的机会但对于他们的问题却不必承担责任。

11. What is soap opera? 什么是肥皂剧?C

A. Plays based on science fiction stories.

B. Plays based on non-fiction stories.

C. The daytime serial dramas on TV. 白天的电视系列剧。

D. Popular documentary films on TV.

12. What can be the best title of the passage? 这篇文章的最佳题目是什么?C

A. College student viewers.

B. Favorite TV serials.

C. Soap opera fans. 肥皂剧迷

D. College-age viewers.

13. Which is NOT the reason why the soap opera has suddenly become “in” among American young people?D

根据这篇文章,哪一项不是肥皂剧突然火起来的原因?

A. Because the viewers want to be happy and to enjoy themselves.

B. Because the soap opera makes young people feel close to their people.

C. Because the viewers can find themselves in the soap opera characters.

D. Because the young people have to bear the responsibilities for their troubles.

因为年轻人得承担问题的责任。

14. What can we learn from the passage? 这篇文章让我们知道了什么?C

C. Young viewers have turned themselves from the seriousness of sixties to enjoyment now.

年轻人已经使自己从60年代人的严肃转向了现在的快乐。

B. The people’s favorites to drama works change along with the times.

人们对戏剧作品的喜爱随着时间而改变

D. The people’s favorites have changed the drama works.

I8 Passage 8

In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning. If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention. The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m. If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it’s a matter of life or death. The time chosen for the call communicates its importance. In social life, time plays a very important part. In the U.S.A. guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date. But it is not true in all countries. In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten. The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world. Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from different cultures that treat time differently. Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible. In the U.S. no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite. A person who is 5 minutes late, will say a few words of explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence. (260 words)

在美国,一般不习惯每天很早打电话给某个人。如果你很早打电话给他,在他刮胡子或吃早饭的时候,那就说明这件事情非常重要,需要立刻处理。晚上十一点以后打电话也是同样的意思。如果一个人在睡觉的时候接到电话,那他肯定觉得这是一件事关生死的大事。打电话的时间也显示事情的重要程度。在社会生活中,时间是一个非常重要的角色。在美国,如果在宴会三四天前才受到邀请,那受邀者就会认为自己不是很受重视。但并不是在所有的国家都如此。在世界上的其它地方,提前很多时候做约定被认为是很愚蠢的,因为约好一个星期以后的事情很容易忘记。所以时间的意义在不同的地方是不一样的。因此,来自不同文化背景的人之间就会产生误会。举个例子,准时在美国社会是受到高度认可的。如果某些人不准时,就会被认为不礼貌或不够负责任。在美国,没有一个人会把一次商务活动和等待一小时联系起来,这太不礼貌了。一个人如果迟到五分钟,就要做出解释,也许这还不够。

6. What is the main idea of this passage? ___B_______ 以下哪项表达了本文的中心思想?

B. The role of time in social life over the world. 世界各地时间在社会生活中扮演的角色。

C. If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible in the U.S.

L9 Passage 9

Laws have been written to govern the use of American National Flag, and to ensure proper respect for the flag. Custom has also governed the common practice in regard to its use. All the armed services have precise regulations on how to display the national flag. This may vary somewhat from the general rules. The national flag should be raised and lowered by hand. Do not raise the flag while it is folded. Unfolded the flag first, and then hoist it quickly to the top of the flagpole. Lower it slowly and with dignity. Place no objects on or over the flag. Do not use the flag as part of a costume or athletic uniform. Do not print it upon cushions, handkerchief, paper napkins or boxes. A federal law provides that the trademark cannot be registered if it comprises the flag, or badgers of the US. When the flag is used to unveil a statue or monument, it shouldn’t serve as a covering of the object to be unveiled. If it is displayed on such occasions, do not allow the flag to the ground, but let it be carried high up in the air to form a feature of the ceremony. Take every precaution to prevent the flag from soiled. It should not be allowed to touch the ground or floor, nor to brush against objects.

已经制定了法律来规定美国国旗的使用,并确保对国旗应有的尊敬。关于国旗的使用也早已有了惯例。全军就国旗的展开方法有明确的规定,这与常规有点不同。国旗的升降应由手工完成。国旗未展开时不能升起。应先使它展开,然后快速把它升至旗杆顶部。缓慢、庄严地降下。旗上不可以放东西。不要把国旗镶嵌在衣服或运动装上,也不要把国旗印在垫子、手帕、纸巾或盒子上。联邦法律规定如果某个商标含有美国国旗或国徽,这个商标就不能被注册。当国旗被用来为雕像或纪念碑揭幕时,不可以盖在被揭幕物上。如果国旗被用在这种场合,则不能让它掉到地上而应悬在空中作为这个仪式的象征。特别注意不要玷污国旗,不允许触到地面或擦着物体。

M10 Passage 10

Many people who work in London prefer to live outside it, and to go in to their offices or schools every day by train, car or bus, even though this means they have to get up early in the morning and reach home late in the evening.

很多在伦敦工作的人喜欢住在伦敦郊外,然后每天乘火车、汽车和公交车去上班或上学。这也就意味着他们不得不早出晚归。

One advantage of living outside London is that houses are cheaper. Even a small flat in London without a garden costs quite a lot to rent. With the same money, one can get a little house in the country with a garden of one’s own.

住在伦敦郊外的一个好处就是房子便宜。在伦敦即使是没有花园的小公寓也需要一笔不菲的租金,用同样的钱,你可以在郊区买一个带花园的小房子了。

Then, in the country one can really get away from the noise and hurry of busy working lives. Even though one has to get up earlier and spend more time in trains or buses, one can sleep better at night and during weekends and on summer evenings, one can enjoy the fresh, clean air of the country. If one likes gardens, one can spend one’s free time digging, planting, watering and doing the hundred and one other jobs which are needed in a garden. Then, when the flowers and vegetables come up, one has got the reward together with those who have shared the secret of Nature.

然后,他在乡村就可以远离喧嚣和忙碌的工作生活。即使他不得不起得更早,花更多的时间乘火车或公交车,但他晚上可以睡得更好。在周末和夏季的夜晚,他可以享受乡村清新干净的空气。要是他喜欢花园,在花园里干一些想挖土、种植、浇水等许多园艺的活,那么当鲜花和蔬菜生长起来的时候,他就与其他分享大自然秘密的人们一样得到奖赏。

Some people, however, take no interest in country things: for them, happiness lies in the town, with its cinemas and theatres, beautiful shops and busy streets, dance-halls and restaurants. Such people would feel that their life was not worth living if they had to live it outside London. An occasional walk in one of the parks and a fortnight’s (two weeks) visit to the sea every summer is all the country they want: the rest they are quite prepared to leave to those who are glad to get away from London every night.

然而有些人对乡村并不感兴趣。对他们来说,幸福就在市区里,那里有电影院、剧院、漂亮的商店、繁忙的街道、舞厅和饭店。如果不得不住在伦敦郊外的话,这些人就觉得生活没意义了。(对于那些热爱都市生活的人来说)他们所需要的乡村生活,就是偶尔去公园散步,每个夏天去海边过上两个星期,其他跟乡村有关的东西,让那些每天晚上都急于离开伦敦的人们(住在郊外的人们)去享受吧。

6. Which of the following statements is NOT true? 下列哪个陈述是不对的?B

P11 Passage 11

Paper is one of the most important products ever invented by man. Wide spread use of written language would not have been possible without some cheap and practical material to write on. The invention of paper meant that more people could be educated because more books could be printed and distributed. Together with the printing press, paper provided an extremely important way to communicate knowledge.

纸是人类发明的最重要的产品之一。没有一些便宜而又实用的材料来写的话,书面语也不可能广泛传播。纸的发明意味着更多的人可以接受教育,因为更多的书可以印出来并分发出去。纸和印刷一起为知识的交流提供了极其重要的途径。

How much paper do you use every year? Probably you cannot answer that question quickly. In 1990 the world’s use of paper was about one kilogram for each person a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person a year. Countries like the United States, England and Sweden use more paper than other countries.

我们每年用多少纸呢?也许你无法很快回答出这个问题。在1900年,全世界的用纸量是每年人均一公斤左右。现在有些国家的用量达到每年人均50公斤。像美国,英国和瑞典这样的国家的用量远超其他各国。

Paper, like many other things that we use today, was first made in China. In Egypt and the West, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on a kind of material made of a water plant. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of year. Parchment was very strong; it was made from the skin of certain young animals. We have learnt of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment. (208words)

像许多其他我们用的东西一样,纸最早发明于中国。在埃及和西方,十五世纪前纸并没有广泛使用。埃及人写字写在一种水生植物做成的材料上。欧洲人用羊皮纸用了好几百年。羊皮纸很牢固,它是用某些幼年动物的皮做成的。从羊皮纸上保存的记录中我们了解到关于欧洲历史的最重要的事情。

11. What’s the meaning for the word “parchment”? ____B________“parchment”的意思是什么?

A. The skin of young animals.

B. A kind of paper made from the skin of certain young animals. 一种用某些幼年动物的皮做成的纸。

P12 Passage 12

Places to stay in Britain are as varied as the places you visit. Whatever your budget is the choice —from basic barn to small hotel, from tiny cottage to grand castle —is all part of fun.

在英国,可住宿的地方就如可参观的地方那么多。不论你的预算是多少,任何一种选择都是快乐的一部分――从谷仓到小旅馆,从小农舍到大城堡。

Hostels 旅社

Cheap, good-value hostels are aimed at all types of like-minded travelers, who prefer value over luxury and you don’t have to be young or single to use them. Britain’s independent hostels and backpackers hostels also offer a great welcome. Facilities and prices vary, especially in rural areas, where some hostels are a little more than a bunkhouse(临时住房)while others are remarkably comfortable —almost like bargain hotels.

廉价、超值的旅社定位在形形色色的趣味相投的重精神超过物质的这类游客群体,而且旅社没有规定游客必须是年轻人或者是单身汉。英国对自助旅行者和背包旅行者也十分欢迎。设施和价格也各不相同,特别是在乡村,有些旅社只比临时住房好一点点,而有些特别舒适-----就像物美价廉的旅馆一样。

Youth Hotels 青年旅馆

Founded many years ago to “help all, especially young people of limited means, to a greater knowledge, love and care of the countryside”, the Youth Hotels Association is still going strong in the 21st century. The network of 230 hotels is a perfect gateway for exploring Britain’s towns and countryside.

(这种旅社的形式)很多年前就形成了,为了“帮助所有的,特别是资金有限的年轻人,深入了解、喜爱、关心农村。”青年旅行社组织在21世纪依然盛行。230家的旅社网络是探索英国小镇和农村的最佳门户。

B&Bs 床位和早餐

The B&Bs (bed and breakfasts) is a great British institution. In essence you get a room in somebody’s house, and small B&Bs may only have one guest room, so you’ll really feel like part of the family. Larger B&Bs may have four or five rooms and more facilities, but just as warm as a welcome.

床位与早餐是英国的伟大创举。实际上就是某家的住户为你提供一个房间,小的B& Bs只有一间客房,所以你会觉得自己是这户人家的一份子。大一些的B& Bs可能有4、5个房间和更多是设施,但一样的热情款待。

In country areas your B&Bs might be in a village or an isolated farm surrounded by fields. Prices reflect facilities: and usually run from around £12 to£20 per person. City B&Bs charge about £25 to£30 per person, although they’re often cheaper as you go further out to the suburbs.

在农村,B & B可能在一个村庄或者四周都是田地的独立的农场里。价格反映了房间的设施:通常每人在12到20英镑左右。城市的B & Bs价格在每人25到30英镑左右,尽管越到郊区价格越便宜。

Pubs & Inns 酒吧和客栈

As well as selling drinks and meals, Britain’s pubs and inns sometimes offer B&Bs, particularly in country areas. Staying a night or two can be great fun and puts you at the heart of local community.

除了卖酒和饭菜外,英国的酒吧和客栈有时也提供床位和早餐,特别在农村地区。在那里住一两个晚上会十分有趣,并且可以让你处在当地社区的中心。

Rates range from around £15 to£25 per person. Pubs are more likely to have single rooms.

价格在每人15到25英镑左右。酒吧更有可能拥有单人房。

S13 Passage 13

Sixteen-year-old Maria was waiting in line at the airport in Santo Domingo. She was leaving her native country to join her sister in the United States. She spoke English very well. Though she was very happy she could go abroad, she was feeling sad at leaving her family and fiends. As she was thinking all about this, she suddenly heard the airline employee asking her to pick up her luggage and put it on the scales (称). Maria pulled and pulled.

waiting to check in his luggage.

“What’s wrong with this girl?” He said, “Why doesn’t she hurry up?” He moved forward and placed his bag on the counter, hoping to check in fist. He was in a hurry to get a good seat.

“这女孩怎么了?”他说道,“她为什么不快点?”他走到前面,把包放在台上,希望能先登记。他急着想要得到一个好的座位。

Maria was very angry, but she was very polite. And in her best English she said, “Why are you so upset? There are enough seats for everyone on the plane. If you are in such a hurry, why can’t you give me a hand with my luggage?”

Maria很生气,但她很有礼貌。她用最优美的英语说,“你为什么如此不耐烦?飞机上的每个人都有座位。如果你真的很急,为什么不能帮我搬一下行李?”

S14 Passage 14

Shyness is the cause of much unhappiness for a great many people. Shy people are anxious and self-conscious; that is, they are excessively concerned with their own appearance and actions. Worrisome thoughts are constantly occurring in their minds: what kind of impression am I making? Do they like me? Do I sound stupid? Am I wearing unattractive clothes?

羞怯是许多人不快乐的原因。害羞的人焦虑不安,自我意识强,也就是说,他们过分在意自己的形象和行为。焦虑时常萦绕在他们的脑海中:我给人留下了什么印象?他们喜欢我吗?我让人觉得很傻吗?我的穿着是否不吸引人?

It is obvious that such uncomfortable feelings must negatively affect people. A person’s conception of himself or herself is reflected in the way he or she behaves, and the way a person behaves affects other people’s reactions. In general, the way people think about themselves has a profound effect on all areas of their lives.

显而易见,这种不舒适的感觉必然给人们带来了不利的影响。一个人的自我意识反映在他或她的行为上,而一个人的行为会影响他人的反应。一般而言,人们认识自己的方式对他们的生活的方方面面有深远的影响。

Shy people, having low self-esteem, are likely to be passive and easily influenced by others. They need reassurance that they are doing “the right thing.” Shy people are very sensitive to criticism; they feel it confirms their feelings of inferiority. They also find it difficult to be pleased by compliment with a statement like this one, “You’re just saying that to make me feel good. I know it’s not true.” It is clear that while self-awareness is a healthy quality, overdoing it is harmful.

羞怯的人非常自卑,他们可能很被动,容易受他人的影响。他们需要得到他人的再次确认:他们所做的是“正确的事情”。羞怯的人对批评很敏感,他们认为批评使得他们更低人一等。他们也发现自己很难因为受到类似的表扬而高兴,如:你刚才所说的使我感觉很好。我知道那不是真的。很明显,尽管具有自知之明是件好事,但过度自谦则是有害的。

Can shyness be completely eliminated, or at least reduced? Fortunately, people can overcome shyness with determined and patient efforts in building self-confidence. Since shyness goes hand in hand with a lack of self-esteems, it is important for people to accept their weakness as well as their strengths.

羞怯能根除吗?或至少能减少些吗?幸运的是,许多人能通过坚决而有耐心地建立自信来克服羞怯。既然羞怯与自卑天生相伴,那么人们能看见他们的优缺点是很重要的。

Each one of us is a unique, worthwhile individual, interested in our own personal ways. The better we understand ourselves, the easier it becomes to live up to our full potential. Let’s not allow shyness to block our chances for a rich and fulfilling life.

每一个人都是独一无二的,都有其价值所在。我们对我们自己个人的方式感兴趣。我们了解自己越多,我们就越容易充分发挥自己的潜能。不要让羞怯妨碍我们实现富裕而有成效的人生。

11. What does the author try to prove by citing “what kind of impression am I making?”

T15 Passage 15

The French Revolution broke out in 1789. At the time France was in a crisis. The government was badly run and people’s lives were miserable. King Louis XIV tried to control the national parliament and raise more taxes. But his effort failed. He ordered his troops to Versailles. The people thought that Louis intended to put down the Revolution by force. On July 14,1789, they stormed and took the Bastille, where political prisoners were kept. Ever since that day, July 14 has been the French National Day. Louis tried to flee the country in 1792 to get support from Austria and Prussia. However, he was caught and put in prison. In September 1792, the monarchy was abolished. In the same year, Louis was executed. A few months later his wife, Marie also had her head cut off. The Revolution of France had frightened the other kings of Europe. Armies from Austria and Prussia began to march against France. The French raised republican armies to defend the nation. The Revolution went through a period of terror. Thousands of people lost their lives. In the end, power passed to Napoleon Bonaparte. (190 words)

T16 Passage 16

There are three kinds of goals: short-term, medium-range and long-term goals.

目标有三种:短期目标,中期目标和长期目标。

Short-term goals are those that usually deal with current activities, which we can apply on a daily basis. Such goals can be achieved in a week or less, or two weeks, or possibly, months. It should be remembered that just as a building is no stronger than its foundation, long-term goals cannot amount to very much without the achievement of solid short-term goals. Upon completing our short-term goals, we should date the occasion and then add new short-term goals that will build on those that have been completed.

短期目标是根据每日制定的为了处理当前事物的目标。短期目标可以以少于一个星期,一个星期,两个星期,或者可能的话一个月来完成。我们必须记住,正如只有地基牢靠,建筑物才坚固一样,长期目标脱离了扎实的短期目标的实现是不能实现的。短期目标的实现是以以前完成的目标为前提的。

The intermediate goals build on the foundation of the short-term goals. They might deal with just one term of school or the entire school year, or they could even extend for several years. Any time you move a step at a time, you should never allow yourself to become discouraged or overwhelmed. As you complete each step, you will enforce the belief in your ability to grow and succeed. And as your list of completion dates grow, your motivation and desire will increase.

中期目标是在短期目标的基础上指定的。可以以一个学期或整个学年为周期指定,或者延长至几年。每次你根据目标前进了一步,都不要让自己感到没有信心或者压力重重。当你完成了一个目标,你都会增加成功的信心。并且当你完成目标的日期越来越近,你的动力和希望都会增加。

Long-term goals may be related to our dreams of the future. They might cover five years or more. Life is not a static thing. We should never allow a long-term goal to limit us or our course of action.(221 words)

长期目标可以和我们未来的梦想相关联。可以是五年或五年以上的目标。生活不是一成不变的。我们不能让长期目标制约了我们或我们的行为。

D. We should often add new short-term goals to those which have been completed.

W17 Passage 17

What makes a person a scientist? Does he have ways or tools of learning that are different from those of others? The answer is “no”. It is not the tools a scientist uses but how he uses these tools that make him a scientist. You will probably agree that knowing how to use a power is important to a carpenter. You will probably agree, too, that knowing how to investigate, how to discover information, is important to everyone. The scientist, however, goes one step further, he must be sure that he has a reasonable answer to his questions and that his answer can be confirmed by other persons. He also works to fit the answer he gets to many questions into a large set of ideas about how the world works.

是什么使一个普通人成为科学家?他有与从不同的学习方法和工具吗?答案是否定的。不是因为科学家使用的工具,而是因为他使用工具的方法使他成为科学家。你也许认同怎么用力对一名木匠来说很重要。你也许也认同怎么研究调查,发现信息对每个人来说都很重要。然而,科学家比这更进一步,他必须确定他对自己的问题得出了一个合理的答案,并且他的答案通过别人也可以得到证实。他同时把自己得出的许多答案归结为一个系统的关于世界如何运作的观点。

The scientist’s knowledge must be exact. There is no room for half right or right just half the time. He must be as nearly right as the conditions permit. What works under one set of conditions at one time must work under the same conditions at other times. If the conditions are different, any changes the scientist observes in a demonstration must be explained by the changes in the conditions. This is one reason that investigations are important in science. Albert Einstein, who developed the theory of relativity, arrived at this theory through mathematics. The accuracy of this mathematics was later tested through investigations, Einstein’s ideas were shown to be correct. A scientist uses many tools for measurements. Then the measurements are used to make mathematical calculations that may test his investigations.

科学家的知识必须很确切。不能给半错半对或者只有一半机会对的情况留任何空间。他必须在条件允许的情况下尽可能正确。在一种条件下成功一次的话必须在同样的条件下都能成功。如果条件不同,科学家在证明过程中观察到的任何变化都必须解释他的条件是如何变化的。这是关于调查研究在科学研究中十分重要的其中一个理由。爱因斯坦通过数学方法提出了相对论。他的数学运用的正确性被后人通过调查研究的方法证实该理论是正确的。一个科学家会用很多工具来测量。测量的结果用来进行数学计算,再进行调查研究的测试。

11. What makes a scientist according to the passage? 根据这篇文章的观点科学家是如何来的?B

A. The tools he uses.

B. The way he uses his tools. 他使用工具的方法

C. His way of learning.

D. The various tools he uses.

12. “The scientist, however, goes one step further…”. The author says this to show _______.C

“然而,科学家比这更进一步……”作者这么说是为了说明什么?

A. the importance of information

B. the importance of thinking

C. the difference between scientists and ordinary people科学家与普通人的区别

D. the difference between carpenters and people with other jobs

13. A sound scientific theory should be one that _______.一项伟大的科学理论应该是怎么样的?A

A. works not only under one set of conditions at one time, but also under the same conditions at other times

不仅只在一种条件下一次可行,而是要在同样的条件下一直可行。

B. does not allow any changes even under different conditions

C. can be used for many purposes

D. leave no room for improvement

14. The author quotes the case of Albert Einstein to illustrate _______.作者引用爱因斯坦的例子是为了证明什么?C

A. that measurements are keys to success in science

B. that accuracy of mathematics

C. that the investigations are important in science调查研究在科学领域十分重要。

D. that the mathematical calculations may test his investigations

15. What is the main idea of the passage? 这篇文章的中心意思是什么?D

A. The theory of relativity.

B. Exactness is the core of science.

C. Scientists are different from ordinary people.

D. Exactness and ways of using tools are the keys to the making of a scientist.

确切性和使用工具的方法是成为科学家的重要因素。

W18 Passage 18

What kinds of people rent their home furnishings instead of buying them? People who are international business or government officials, foreign students, airline workers, young married couple – people whose job or business may force them to move frequently from one city to another. They save a lot of trouble and the cost of moving their furniture each time. They simply rent new furniture when they reach their new homes. Young people with little money do not want to buy cheap furniture that they may soon dislike. They prefer to wait until they have enough money to buy furniture that they really like. Meanwhile, they find they can rent better quality furniture than they could afford to buy.

什么样的人是租用家具而不是买家具的呢?从事国际商务的人,政府官员,外国学生,航空公司工作人员,刚结婚的年轻夫妇---- 那些由于工作而被迫频繁来往不同的城市的人。他们可以省去每次搬家具的麻烦和费用。他们到一个新家的时候,只需租新的家具就好了。收入少的年轻人不想买那些他们可能很快就不喜欢的便宜家具。他们宁愿等到有钱时买他们真正喜欢的家具。同时,他们发现他们可以租比他们买得起的质量更好的家具。

One family, who now have a large, beautiful home of their own, liked their rented furniture so much that they decided to keep renting it instead of buying new things. But usually people don’t like to tell others about it. The idea of renting home furnishings is still quite new, and they are not sure what their neighbors might think. (248words)

鹰是世界上寿命最长的鸟类,一生的年龄可达70岁。要活这么长的寿命,在其生命的中期必须做出艰难却重要的决定。

因为鹰活到40岁的时候,它的长而灵活爪子开始老化,无法有效地抓住猎物;它的长而尖喙变弯,翅膀也越加沉重,由于厚重的老羽毛,翅膀和胸粘在一起,使得飞翔十分吃力。这时,它只有两种选择:一是等待死亡;二是经历150天痛苦的重整后再生。

选择重整后再生的鹰,要经过一个痛苦更新的过程。它首先要努力地飞到山顶,在悬崖筑巢,这段时间,要用力将又长又弯的喙击打岩石,直到完全脱落,然后等候新的喙长出来;再用长出的新喙将老羽毛一片一片地拔掉。五个月后,待新的羽毛长出后,鹰得以重生,又可以翱翔于广阔的天空,继续后30年的生命旅程。

许多次,为了生存,我们必须开始经历变化。有时,我们需要遗弃旧的记忆,习惯和一些老惯例。只有从过去烦恼的尘埃中解脱,我们才能更好地把握现在。

It is always interesting to visit another country, especially for those who have never traveled a great deal. Foreign 21 can be very educational for anyone if he is interested enough to make preparations beforehand. Learning the language of the new country would be difficult for the traveler, 22 the benefits of such an effort would become obvious immediately 23 his arrival. It may not seem important to him when he comfortably stays at home, but knowing how to 24 a meal or book a room is necessary for the newcomer in a strange country. Without knowing the language, it is very difficult 25 the stranger to understand the people of the new country and their customs.

出国旅游总是很有趣的,尤其是对于那些很少出门旅行的人。如果旅游者兴致很高,提前做些知识准备,在国外旅行中能学到更多的东西。学习一门新的语言对于旅行者来说会很难,但是一到达新国度,这种努力学习语言的益处就会立竿见影。当他在国内的时候这并不重要,但是在一个陌生的国家里,对于一个新来的人知道如何点餐或预定房间却是必须的。如果不懂这个国家的语言,

研究不同国家人的名字是很有趣的事情,中国人的名字不同于外国人的名字。有一次,一名英国女士来拜访我。当我把我自己介绍给她后,她说“很高兴见到你,平小姐”。随后她给了我她的名片,上面写着“贝蒂﹒简﹒布莱克”,因此,我说“谢谢你,贝蒂小姐”。我们相互看了看对方,大笑起来。后来我发现英国人把他们的姓放在最后,名字放在第一位,而中间名字用的不多。我解释给她说,中国人的名字都是姓在前,名在后,因此,她不应该称呼我为“平小姐”。她问我中国人有没有中间名字。我告诉她说,我们中国人没有。虽然人们会在中国人的名片上发现有三个字。在这种情况下,姓仍然是在第一位,而其后的两个字都是名。这在中国很常见。我的姐姐叫李晓芳。她就有两个字的名,不像我的名只有一个字。

Many students find the experience of attending university lectures to be a confusing and frustrating experience. The lecturer speaks for one or two hours, perhaps 21 the talk with slides, writing up important information on the blackboard, 22 reading material and giving out assignment. The new student sees the other students continuously writing on notebooks and 23 what to write. Very often the student leaves the lecture with notes which do not catch the main points and 24 become hard even for the students to understand.

很多学生发现在大学听课是一种令人费解,令人灰心的经验。老师会花一两个小时用幻灯片来讲解课的内容,在黑板上写出一些重要的信息,散发一些阅读材料,布臵一些作业。新生发现别的学生一直在记笔记,他们不知道该记些什么。学生经常会记一些不切重点的笔记,这使学生对所学的知识难以理解。

Most institutions provide courses which assist new students to develop the skills they need to be 25 listeners and not-takers. If these are unavailable, there are many useful study-skills guides which 26 learners to practice these skills independently. In all cases it is important to 27 the problem before actually starting your studies.

大多数学校给学生提供的课程可以帮助学生培养如何成为一个高效的聆听者的技能和记笔记的技能。如果这些没有,那么会有很多有用的学习的指导,使听者能够单独训练这些技能。通常学生在开始学习之前就应该解决这种听课技能的问题。

It is important to acknowledge that most students have difficulty 28 acquiring the language skills required in college study. One way of 29 these difficulties is to attend the language and study-skills classes which most institutions provide throughout the academic year. Another basic strategy is to find a study partner 30 it is possible to identify difficulties, exchange ideas and provide support.

不得不承认大多数学生在大学学习期间在获取语言技能方面有困难。克服这种困难的一种方法就是参加语言和学习技能培训班,很多学校在整个学年中都开设此班。另一种基本的方法就是找一个学习伙伴,和伙伴一起就有可能找出困难所在,交换意见和提供帮助。

More and more teachers and parents have noticed another kind of pollution, 21 came from the printed papers sold on streets. 越来越多的老师和家长已经注意到了另一种污染,即随街叫卖的印刷品。

These printed things look like newspaper but have hardly anything to do with them. You can only find reading materials badly 22 there-some are too strange for anyone to believe, 23 are frightening stories of something even worse. However, many of the young students are getting absorbed in such poisonous reading, which costs them what they should pay for their breakfast and bring them nightmares and immoral ideas 24 return. Homework is left undone, daily games lost.

这些印刷品看起来像报纸,但几乎和报纸粘不上边。你看到的只是胡编乱造的文章-有些离奇得让人难以臵信,有些是更糟糕

的恐怖故事。然而,许多学生却迷上了这种有毒文章,他们花早餐钱去买这些印刷品,而带给他们的却只有恶梦和不健康的思想。家庭作业不做,日常锻炼丧失。

These sellers shout on streets selling their papers well. The writes, publishers and printers, 25 they are, we never know, are making their silent money. The sheep skinned wolf’s stories seem to have been forgotten once again.

这些卖报者在街上叫卖,生意不错。这些作者、出版商和印刷者,我们不知道他们是谁,正默默地赚着他们的钱。披着羊皮的狼的故事似乎又一次被遗忘了。

Why not forbid this kind of things at school? Yes, both teachers and parents have 26 each other for more strict control of the young readers. Yet unfortunately, 27 you want to forbid it, the more they want to have a look at it. Sometimes you may even find several children share one patched paper, which has traveled from one had to 28 driven by the curious nature.

学校为什么不禁止这种读物?是的,老师和家长都互相要求更严格监控这些小读者。不幸的是,你越想禁止,他们就越想看。有时你甚至发现好几个孩子争着看一张由于好奇心而传来传去的破报纸。

It really does harm to our society. It has already formed a sort of moral pollution. The 29 teachers and parents need more powerful support. Meanwhile, the young readers need more interesting books to help them 30 these ugly papers.

There were once three sons of a wealthy businessman. 21 they met, the two eldest, who were twins, 22 to quarrel about which of them should be his father’s heir(继承人). The youngest, who was not 23 ambitious (野心勃勃的), took no part in their argument. As soon as they left home, the father arranged for an adequate income to be provided for 24 of them, but insisted that apart from this they were to be financially self-supporting. The 25 twin, who had the advantage of good looks and a striking personality, decided that he would take up the stage 26 a career.

电大学位英语试题及答案

学位英考试试题-1 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: Archaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek and means, more or less, “the study of old things”. So, it is really a part of the study of history. However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs,but archaeologists (考古学家) learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago. Normally, these are the hard materials that don't break down or disappear very quickly—things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal. It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence of history--normally, the bacteria (细菌) in the air eat away at soft materials, like bodies, clothes and things made of wood. Occasionally, things are different. In 1984, two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss, in the north of England. A bog is a very wet area of earth, with a lot of plants growing in it. It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup—walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear forever. The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out—a human foot! Naturally, the men called the police,who then found the rest of the body. Was it a case of murder? Possibly--but it was a death nearly two thousand years old. The two men had found a body from the time of the Roman invasion of Britain. Despite being so old, this body had skin, muscles, hair and internal organs—the scientists who examined him were able to look inside the man's stomach and find the food that he had eaten for his last meal! Why was this man so well preserved? (76) It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe fi:om the bacteria that need oxygen to live. Also, the water in the bog was very acidic. The acid preserved the man's skin in the way that animal skin is preserved for leather coats and shoes. How did he die? Understandably, archaeologists and other scientists wanted to know more about the person that they called,“Lindow Man”. (77) His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn't done heavy manual work in his life—he could have been a rich man. They found that he hadn't died by accident. The archaeologists believe that he was sacrificed to three different gods. 1. Which language does the word “archaeology”come from? A. French. B. Greek. C. Roman. D. German. 2. The word “these” in the first paragraph refers to_______. A. letters B. photographs C. paintings D. objects 3. Which of the following helped to preserve“Lindow Man”? A. Ice and Iow temperature. B. Bacteria and oxygen. C. Soil and energy. D. Acid and water. 4. According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?
