Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

Half of the world's coral reefs （珊瑚礁）

have died in the last 30 years. Now scientists are racing to ensure that the rest surv ive. Even if global warning were to right now, scientists predict that more than 90% of corals will die by 2050. If no major steps are taken to address the problem, the r eefs may be headed for total extinction（灭绝）.

(78) The planet’s health depends on the survival of coral reefs. They described as “t he rainforests of the sea", because they provide shelter for a wide variety of sea lif e. In addition, the reefs serve as barriers that protect coastlines from the full force of powerful storms.

Coral are used in medical research for cures to diseases. They are key to local econ omies as well, since the reefs attract tourists, the fishing industry, and other busine sses, bringing in billions of dolllars.

（79）

Corals are particular sensitive to changes in temperature. A rise of just 1 to 2 degre es can force the corals to drive out the algae（水

藻）. Then the corals turn white in a process called “bleaching”. Corals can reco ver from short-term bleaching, but long-term bleaching can cause permanent dam age. In 1998, when sea surface temperatures were the highest in recorded history, coral reefs around the world suffered the most severe bleaching. It is estimated tha t even under the best of conditions, many of these coral reefs will need decades to recover.

Although reefs face other threats from pollution, industrial activities, and overfishi ng, it is global climate change that most concerns scientists. Scientists remain hope ful that it’s not too late to save the reefs, and some are moving ahead on experime nts to accomplish that goal.

成人本科学位英语统一考试真题及答案

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试 2015.05.09 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: Babies who are breast-fed may be more likely to be successful in life, a new study published Tuesday suggests. The study followed more than 3,000 babies into adulthood in Brazil. The researchers found those who were breast-fed scored slightly higher in intelligence tests in their 30s, stayed in school longer and earned more money than those who were given formula（配方奶粉）. CIA (Central Intelligence Agency)中央情报局 IQ(intelligence quotient) n. 智力商数 EQ(Emotional Quotient)情商 “Breast-feeding not only has short-term benefits, but also breast-feeding has long-term benefits, "says Bernardo Lessa Horta of the Federal University of Pelotas in Brazil, who led the study being published in The Lancet Global Health. short-term memory短时记忆 Long-term memory长时记忆 The Lancet Global Health《柳叶刀》杂志 (76) Doctors have long known that breast-feeding can be good for a baby’s heal th. 长久以来，医生们就已熟知母乳喂养对婴儿健康有益。This is especially true in poor countries, where water can be contaminated. For instance, a baby given formula in developing countries is 14 times more likely to die in the first six months than one who’s breast-fed. In the U.S., some research has suggested that breast-feeding may raise a baby’s IQ（智商）by a few points. But a recent study with siblings（兄弟姐妹）found little advantage to breast-feeding. Horta says these previous studies didn’t follow children into adulthood to see if breast-feeding had long-term effects. So Horta analyzed data collected from 3,493 volunteers he and his colleagues have been following since birth. They are now in their 30s. First, the

成人英语三级考试词汇与语法解题技巧

成人英语三级考试词汇与语法解题技巧 一、概述 选择题考察词语用法和语法结构(PartⅡVocabulary and Structure)，共30题，考试时间25分钟。题目中50%为词和短语的用法，50%为语法结构。要求考生从每题四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 词语用法和语法结构部分主要考核学生运用词汇、短语及语法结构的能力。考试范围包括全日制文理科教学大纲中词汇表及语法结构表一至三级的主要内容。 挑错(Part ⅢIdentification)，共10题，考试时间10分钟。挑错题由10个单句组成。每个句子含有标着A、B、C、D的四个划线部分，其中有一处是错误的，要求考生从上个划线部分中挑出其错误的部分。挑错部分是词语语法和语法结构部分的延伸，目的是测试学生掌握词汇、短语及语法结构的熟练程度，其重点是固定搭配和句型。 二、常见词汇辨析题 1.She _____ us that every would be all right. A. assured B. ensured C. insure D. secure 答案：A 解析：assure、ensure、insure、secure都有“保证”这个意思，但它们有着细微的。assure强调消除疑虑，题干的意思是“她向我们保证会一切顺利”，因此应该用assure。ensure强调实实在在的保障，如"The letter ensured an interview."暗含了有了这封信就一定可以参加面试的意思。Insure则强调事先准备以保证。最后secure则表示采取措施排除负面因素从而保证。 2.She asked me to ______ her at 7. A. awake B. awaken C. waken D. The three answers are all right 答案：D 解析：awake，形容词，“醒着的”，动词，“唤醒、醒来”。作为动词，它的用法与wake(up)相似，既可是及物动词，如"My interest awoke when I saw the chance for profit."（看到有机会盈利我就有了兴趣）和"The project awoke his interest."awaken和waken一样，也可作及物和不及物动词，表示“唤醒”和“醒来”的意思。 3.The meeting will begin at 9:00 according to the ______. A. calendar B. schedule C. column D. diagram 答案：B 解析：四个选项的意思分别是calendar，日历，schedule，日程安排，column,专栏，diagram，图解。Schedule还可以作动词，意思是“安排”，如"the flight is scheduled at six"。词组on schedule意为“准时地”。此外还要掌握column一词也可指“体积”。 4.He spoke so quickly; I didn't ______ what he said. A. receive B. accept C. listen D. catch 答案：D 解析：catch是一个意项很多的词，可以表示“抓住”“捕获”“赶上车”“感染”等。可用catch sb. doing，意为当场抓住某人做某事，如："She caught me cheating on the test."。这里catch指“理解”“懂得”。 5.It is said that he ____ murder. A. committed B. conducted C. executed D. emitted 答案：A 解析：commit,动词，意为“干、犯（坏事）”。与之相关的词有commitment和committee，“委员会”。Conduct，动词，“指挥、引导”。如“He conducts himself quite well these days in school.（他这些天在学校表现不错。）”，"Being the only son, he had to conduct the family business after his father's death."。另外，作为动词它还有“传热、传导”的意项。它也可以作名词，意思是“行为、品行”。与之相关的词有conductor，“领队、乐队指挥”、“售票员、列车员”“导体”。Execute，动词，意为“执行”、“处死”，如"to execute a plan"。Executive,形容词，“实行的”，名词，“管理人员”。Emit，动词，“发射、发出”。 6.The door is shut _____ and clocked. A. fast B. tight C. firm D. sound 答案：A 解析：fast要这里是作副词，意思是“紧紧地”。除此之外，它还可以表示“完全地”，与sound相似。Tight和firm如果换成它们的副词形式tightly和firmly在这里也是适合的。Sound也可以作副词，意思是“完全地、彻底地”，如“He's sound asleep”。 7.Many crops were grown on the____ land. A. barren B. bare C. fertile D. deserted

A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy. Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a home, so they have to borrow money from a bank. Borrowing money from a bank to buy a house is called “take a mortgage (抵押).”The bank usually lends money or gives a mortgae for twenty-five years. Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as $ 50 000. In other words, they will have a $ 50 000 mortgage. How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like, you go to a bank. The bank will research you financial (金融的) history and decide if. they think you are a good risk. They will want to know what kind of job you have, what kind of salary you make, and how long you have had the job. They will also want to know how much money you have. In addition, the banks will require a down payment. Depending on which state you live in, the bank may require as much as 30% of the-price of the house as a down payment. The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house. Many people are never able to buy a house because they cannot save enough money for the down payment. 1.
