Do you find commercials between songs on the

radio annoying?Don’t TV ads that interrupt

movies just at the crucial moment(46)ir

you?And isn’t it a(n)(47)when a football

match is about to start play but is cut off by

commercials?If you answered“yes”to any of the

above questions,then you probably won’t be

excited(48)a new Swedish phone

company that is offering free calls where your calls are repeatedly interrupted by phone ads.

(49)the fact that most people despise commercials of any kind,students and the

(50)(elder)have proved to be the biggest users in this two-month trial test.These two opposite age groups don’t seem to be bothered by phone interruptions.It makes sense since the young and the old are usually not(51)(employ),making free phone calls a(n)rather attractive offer.What advertisers are(52)gu is a captive audience.Since most ads are only ten seconds long,a caller can’t go to the bathroom because the person at the other end of the line will be kept(53)(wait).Future customers will be asked to provide(54)pe information such as age,sex,address and material status so that different callers might hear different ads.For example,a caller in the rural north might hear an ad for a tractor,while a caller in Stockholm could listen to an ad for a local restaurant.In spite of this sounding wonderfully modern,this is just the kind of thing this writer believes the Swedish(55) (need)have invented.

Part IV:Reading Comprehension(35marks)

Read the following passages.Each passage is followed by several questions.Respond to the questions using information from the passage.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.

Section A(5marks)

Questions56-60are based on the following passage.

In Europe men don’t usually wear shirts.But the

Scottish national costume for men is a kind of skirt.It

is called a kilt.The Scottish like to be different.They

are also proud of their country and its history,and

they feel that the kilt is part of that history.That’s

why the men still wear kilts at old-style dances and

on national holidays.They believe they are wearing

the same clothes that Scottish men always used to

wear.

That’s what they believe.However,kilts are not really very old.Before1730,Scottish men wore a long skirt and blanket around their shoulders. These clothes got in the way when the men started to work in factories.So,in1730s a factory owner changed the blanket into a skirt:the kilt.That’s how the first kilt was made. Then in the late1700s Scottish soldiers in the British Army began to wear kilts.One rea-son for this was national feeling:the Scottish soldiers wanted to look different from the English soldiers.The British Army probably had a different reason:a Scottish soldier in a kilt was al-ways easy to find!The Scottish soldiers fought very hard and be-

came famous.The kilt was part of the fame,and in the early1800s

men all around Scotland began to wear kilts.

These kilts had colourful stripes going up and down and

across.In the1700s and early1800s,the colour of the stripes had

no special meaning.Men sometimes owned kilts in several differ-

ent colours.But later the colours became important to Scottish

families.By about1850,most families had special colours for their

kilts.For example,men from the Campbell family had kilts with

green,yellow and blue stripes.Scottish people often believe that

the colours of the kilts are part of their family history.In fact,

each family just chose the colours they liked best.

This is not the story you will hear today if you are in Scot-

7--

land.Most Scottish people still believe that kilts are as old as Scotland and that the colours are as old as the Scottish families.Sometimes feelings are stronger than facts.

Questions56to60:Mark each statement as either true(T)or false(F)according to the passage.

56.The Scottish are so proud of their national costume that they even wear it to work in the factory before1730.

57.Dressed in a kilt,the Scottish soldiers always have a sense of superiority over British sol-diers.

58.The colors of the kilts are part of the Scottish family history.

59.By about1850,the Scottish families had special colours for their kilts.

60.Most people in Scotland know the true history of kilts.

Section B(10marks)

Questions61-65are based on the following passage.

How much money do you leave the waiter or waitress

in a restaurant?What about taxi drivers,hotel staff

and hairdressers?Tipping is complex,but even more

so when you’re abroad.

(61)In

Australia,for example,tipping isn’t common at all,

and they aren’t really expected in restaurants...or

anywhere else as a matter of fact.It’s the same in Iceland and China.And in Japan,it can actually be considered rude to tip in a restaurant.In fact,if you leave money a waiter might even chase you to give it back.In most of Europe,tip-ping a waiter is fairly common.

(62)In England,for example,most people tip around 10%of the bill.But in Spain people generally only leave small change.However,if there’s one country where you really should tip,it’s the United States.In stark contrast to Japan,a waiter will probably chase you down the street if you don’t leave a tip!Not only that,but Americans usually tip up to a hefty20%in restaurants.So,if you’re saving up for a big dinner in the US, make sure you take that into account.Americans also tip for drinks.In fact,there are some bars in New York where staff earn such a big money from tips that they receive no wages. (63)Here’s some advice from a travel website on how you should tip in an American hotel:$3for the parking attendant,$2for the doorperson if they hail a taxi for you,and$1for each bag they help you with.The bellhop gets$2per bag,and you should leave the maids$3to$5a day.So,for two people for one weekend that’s about$20 before you’ve even paid for the room.

8--

(64)Well,in many cases,workers are paid below the minimum wage as they are expected to make up the difference with tips.As a result,a server could earn a decent wage on a good night,or hardly break even on a slow night.Service sector workers are even expected to pay income tax on the tips as they are considered part of their normal wages for the job they do—not just“extra”money.

(65)Stained Apron has information on who’s who in the world of tipping.Under the column heading“Scum”,you can find a list of the bad tippers. Those on the list include AL Gore,Dan Quayle and Bridget Fonda.And under“Saints”there’s a list of the generous tippers,which includes Johnny Depp,Ray Charles,Angelina Jolie and Bill Clinton.

But could anyone possibly match the late Kerry Packer(the Australian billionaire)?He was always a generous tipper,but on one occasion he casually asked the waitress serving him how big her mortgage was.The tip he left her paid it off to the last penny.Now that really is“saintly tipping”!

Of course,make sure you’re a billionaire before trying that one!

Questions61-65:Choose from the sentences A-G the one which best fits each gap of61-65. There are two extra sentences which you do not need to use.

A.But why is there so much tipping?

B.The problem is that every country seems to have its own unofficial“rules”.

C.Why is tipping so common in US?

D.There is even a website for celebrity tippers.

E.However,amounts vary from country to country.

F.How much a waiter can earn largely lies in the generosity of the tipper.

G.But it isn’t only in bars and restaurants where you’re supposed to tip.

Section C(10marks)

Questions66-70are based on the following passage.

Pottery is the name given to all kinds of pots and

utensils made from clay and other minerals when they

have been“fired”,that is,hardened by heat in the

potter’s kiln.Articles made of pottery include plates,

cups and saucers,cooking dishes,wall and floor tiles,

chemical storage jars,electrical insulators and

ornaments for the home.

Pottery is one of the oldest crafts,which began to

9--

be practiced as soon as man learned to control fire,and long before the melting of metals.It enabled him from very early times to make vessels for storing and cooking food,for carrying water,and for ritual burial purposes.Early vessels were shaped by hand and probably“fired”in a big bonfire by covering them over with dried grass and dead branches,which were then set alight.

A great advance in pottery followed the invention of the potter’s wheel and the kiln.It is not certainly known where the potter’s wheel was first used,but it is thought that by about3500 B.C.potters in Central Asia were using some kind of wheel.From there its use spread west and east to Egypt,Crete,China—and then to Ancient Greece and Rome.

At first the wheel was nothing more than a small disc,turned on a pivot by hand,but later it was improved by raising it and providing it with a larger circular platform near the ground as well which could be rotated by the potter with his feet.Such a wheel was probably in use in Egypt by about200B.C.,though this is only conjecture;but it was certainly still in use in Europe at the beginning of the nineteenth century.In the eighteenth century,however,the potter’s wheel was improved so that it could be worked by a treadle,or turned by an assistant. Modern potter’s wheels are power driven.

There are three principal ways articles may be made of pottery.They may be simply shaped by hand.They may be thrown on the potter’s wheel and shaped against the spin with the fingers or some scraping tool.Thirdly,the wet clay may be put in a pre-shaped“form”of plaster-of-Pairs.

After the pots have been made,they are slowly baked in the kiln.This produces chemical changes in the clay which have a hardening effect.The time taken for firing pottery varies with the size of the kiln and the type of clay.It can take anything from24hours to as long as2 weeks.

If pottery is to hold water,it must be“glazed”,since clay is porous by nature.Glaze consists of the raw materials of glass,ground together and mixed with water to a creamy consistency.The glaze is sprayed on to the pot which is then heated in the kiln again until it is, in effect,covered with a very thin layer of glass.This seals the pores in the clay and gives us the versatile table and oven dishes we know so well today.

Questions66-70:Answer the following questions with the information given in the passage.

66.What are the main purposes of early making pottery?

67.In what way did the vessels shape before the invention of the potter’s wheel?

68.When was the first potter’s wheel invented?

69.Please list the three ways that articles can be made of pottery.

70.Why is the time taken for firing pottery varies?

Section D(10marks)

Questions71to75are based on the following passage.

Originally used to describe a third-century sect of strictly legalistic heretics,the word‘Puritan’is now applied unevenly to a number of Protestant churches from the late16th century to the present.Puritan did not originally use the term for themselves.It was a term of abuse that first surfaced in the1560s.“Precisemen”and“Precisians”were other early antagonistic terms for Puritan who preferred to call themselves“the godly”.The word“Puritan”thus always referred to a type of religious belief,rather than a particular religious sect.To reflect that the term encompasses a variety of ecclesiastical bodies and theological positions,scholars today increasingly prefer to use the term as a common noun or adjective:“puritan”rather than “Puritan”.

The single theological momentum most consistently defined by the term“Puritan”was Anabaptist and led to the founding of the Independent or Congregationalist churches.In the United States,the church and religious culture of the Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony formed the basis of the post-colonial American Congregationalism,specifically the Congregational Church proper as well as Unitarianism.The term Puritan was used by the group itself mainly in the16th century,though it seems to have been used often and,in its earliest recorded instances, as a term of abuse.By the middle of the17th century,the group had become so divided that “Puritan”was most often used by opponents and detractors of the group,rather than by the practitioners themselves.As Patrick Collinson has noted,well before the founding of the New England settlement,“Puritanism had no content beyond what was attributed to it by its opponents”.The practitioners knew themselves as members of particular churches or movements,and not by the simple term.

Puritans who felt that the Reformation of the Church of England was not to their satisfaction but who remained within the Church of England advocating further reforms are known as non-separating Puritans.(The Non-Separating Puritans differed among themselves about how much further reformation was necessary.)Those who felt that the Church of England was so corrupt that true Christians should separate from it altogether are known as separating Puritans or simply as Separatists.Especially after the Restoration(1660),non-separating Puritans were called Nonconformists(for their failure to conform to the Book of Common Prayer) while separating Puritans were called Dissenters.

The term“puritan”is not strictly used to describe any new religious group after the17th century,although several groups might be called“puritan”because their origins lay in the Puritan movement.“The term‘puritan’might be used by analogy to describe any group that shares a commitment to the Puritans”Anabaptist points.

Section A 5段短对话,分别1个小问题。 Section B 2段长对话,分别5个小问题。 前两部分的长短对话难度其实不是很大,主要是尽快让自己进入状态,听力只有一遍,上一题没听到,就赶紧猜一个,千万不要影响后面的题目。 Section C 5段短新闻,分别1个小问题,内容均是摘自BBC或VOA的新闻。 现在只剩下一个月时间,要大家一直对着BBC或是VOA广播听也不是办法,建议大家上沪江英语学习的BBC或VOA小组,里面的内容一般都是筛选过的,每天听一些,熟悉一下英美人士的发音就好。 Section D 1段长文章,共有10个空格,注意要填写的可能是单词也可能是短语。 最后就是关于考听力的一些提示,毕竟英语竞赛的听力考试是播放录音的,各考场分配到的带子质量不一,考场环境有好有坏。假设你实在太倒霉了,带子播放不清晰,环境吵杂(监考老师也很可能帮不了你,因为大多监考老师不是英语老师),也不要心慌,冷静下来尽量听到关键词,加上自己的大胆猜测,蒙对的概率也是很大的。 情景词汇大归纳 在学校:grade 等级;mark 分数;semester 学期;assignment 作业;lecture 演讲,讲稿;scholarship 奖学金;test 测试;vacation 假期;credit学分;quiz小测验;top student 优等生 在医院:medicine 药;injection 注射;diagnose 诊断;prescription 处方;patient 病人;ache 疼痛;stomachache 胃疼,肚子痛;toothache 牙痛;headache 头痛;high fever 发高烧;sore throat 嗓子痛;mumps 腮腺炎;measles 麻疹;lung cancer 肺癌;liver cancer 肝癌;heart attack 心脏病发作;physician 内科医生;surgeon 外科医生;pediatrician 儿科医生;vet 兽医;recovery (from) (病后)痊愈,恢复;operation 手术; doctor 医生;nurse 护士;ward 病房;emergency-ward 急诊病房;cough 咳嗽; temperature 体温;blood pressure 血压; 在宾馆: reception desk 接待处;front desk 前台;vacant room 空房;single room 单人间;double room双人间;reserve/book 预定;check in 登记住入;check out 结帐离开;porter 行李搬运工;tip 小费;full 客满;room service 房间服务部,服务到屋 在商店:bargain 便宜货;receipt 收据;cashier 出纳;shop assistant 售货员;salesclerk 店员;fake commodities 假冒伪劣商品;size 尺寸;color 颜色;style 式样; price 价格;guarantee 保修; expiration period 保质期;after-sale service售后服务;fashion 时髦,时尚;cheap 便宜的;expensive 昂贵的;counter 柜台 在机场:flight 航班;passport 护照;visa 签证;board 登机;reservation 预约;airhostess 空中小姐;pilot 飞行员;duty-free shop 免税店;airport 机场 在餐馆:waiter 服务员;waitress 女服务员;order 点菜;menu 菜单;bill 帐单;drink 饮料;soft drink 不含酒精的饮料;salad 色拉;soup 汤;dessert 甜点;roast beef 烤牛肉;pork 猪肉;mutton 羊肉;lamb 羔羊肉;chicken 鸡肉;fish 鱼肉;steak 牛排;go Dutch 各付各的,AA制;on the house 免费; It is my treat (it’s on me)我请客 在法院:sue 控告;legal 合法的;accuse 控告;the accused /defendant 被告;the plaintiff /accuser 原告;charge 控诉;convict 宣告有罪;client 委托人,当事人;judge 法官;sentence 判刑;imprisonment 关押,监禁;capital punishment 死罪;death penalty 死刑

2016年全国大学生英语能力竞赛攻略 学长分享英语竞赛技巧: 知己知彼百战不殆”,要想在全国大学生英语竞赛中取得好成绩,平时的积累是基础,而考前对考试的研究和分析以及练习则是升华。近几年来英语竞赛也在不断调整中。对我们来说,最重要的参考资料就是当年的竞赛样题,和官网的考试说明文件,从中我们可以了解到考试的题型、分值、时间分配、难度和新变化。只有这样我们才能对症下药,合理分配考试时间,获得最好的成绩。其实考试,一言以蔽之,就是尽量的规定时间内拿到最高的分数,分数越高,就意味着你越成功。由于每年试题结构、题型等都会有所变化,下面就以2010年的英语竞赛初赛试题为例,分析一下时间安排。今年初赛试题共分为七部分,时间120分钟,满分150分。七部分分别为听力、词汇与语法结构、完形填空、阅读理解、翻译、智力测试和写作。下面就分别进行分析。 第一部分是听力,由四部分组成,第一部分是五篇短对话,然后是两篇长对话,第三部分是五篇短新闻,第四部分是听写式填空。总分是30分,总的来说,听力的难度不算很大,应该是介于四、六级之间,大部分都可以直接从对话中找到原句和答案。但是还是有一定难度的。首先,前20道选择题都只读一遍,这和一般的考试不同,所以对选手就提出了更高的要求,必须从一开始就高度集中注意力,才能不遗漏重要信息。此外,听写式填空也是对基本知识的一个考查,经常有同学听到了却不会写,这需要我们打好自己的基础。这一部分要力争拿到20分以上。 第二部分是词汇与语法结构,这也是对“双基”知识的一个考查,可以说基本上是考查基本功的,当然我们也要注意,这其中对话类的应用题目也呈逐年上升的趋势。总分15分,官方建议完成时间是十分钟。这一部分要力争拿到10分以上。 第三部分是完形填空,也是我认为全卷除了智力测试以外最难的题目,题型包括根据上下文填空、根据给出的首字母填空、根据给出的单词的适当形式填空。分值是十分,官方建议完成时间是10分钟。这题不仅考查你的基本词汇语法知识,也考查你对文章的理解和把握。可以说是阅读+词汇的结合。要拿高分很难,但是其实还是有一些分好拿的,这一部分我们要力争拿到4分以上。 第四部分是阅读理解,总分40分,官方建议完成时间是25分钟。这是全卷分值最大的一道大题,也是时间最紧的。我估计绝大多数同学在25分钟内都没办法全部完成(我也很勉强)。这一部分我觉得最重要的还是把握文章的开头和结尾,了解主旨,然后根据题目去快速定位,因为这里的题目大部分都是在原文可以找到答案的。这一部分阅读量大、题型多样(包括选择题、问答题、是/否/未提及题,摘抄题、填空题等)、也是对同学英语应用能力的有力考查,还是要熟能生巧,在平时多加练习,力争达到又对又快的境界,这一部分要力争拿到25分以上。 第五部分是翻译,包括英译汉和汉译英两部分。共20分,官方建议完成时间是15分钟。这一部分可以说是全卷最简单的题型,考查的内容都没超过四级甚至是平常练习的难度,对英译汉,还是要花点时间看看文章开头和结尾,“磨刀不误砍柴工”,很多翻译都要根据上下文进行,才能更加的到位。有时在翻译中遇到生词,也可以根据上下文进行推断。比如今年的汉译英试题中多次提到“dropout”这个单词,我考试时也忘了这是什么意思,最后还是通过文章最后
