第一篇Text 1

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的[A]、[B]、[C]和[D]四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡

上将该项涂黑。

It’s 8:00 am. James Butters gives 18-month-old Thomas his milk, then breakfast.

After getting Thomas into his outdoor clothes, they head for the park to watch birds

and play on the grass. With lunchtime drawing near, they’re back home for an afternoon

of drawing, playing with cars, maybe watching some children’s programs.

James isn’t Thomas’dad. He is a nanny (保姆) 一 a man nanny, obviously, interestingly termed a “manny”一specially trained and in his third nannying position. At 27, he cares for Thomas, and another boy of a similar age. “It’s much freer than an office job,” he says, “and you’re getting to see children develop and grow. You become very close to them, for sure. I don’t think I’m special or better than a woman nanny; everyone has their own method. But I’m unusual. Friends laughed when I started studying nursery nursing. In my class, I was the only man among 70 women. Somehow, I made it,” he said.

Although it’s not yet common to find men in traditional (传统的) nannying courses, things are changing. In the United States, parents are employing young mannies, sometimes to care for babies, but more often as active role models to get junior away from the TV and the computer. From rollerblading (轮滑) friends to summer swimming mannies, these are the big brothers who are always willing to play, largely because they’re paid for it.

It is catching on here in Britain, too. Earlier this year, Norland nanny college welcomed its first full-time man student, 19-year-old Peter Cummins in Wales. While some families find it difficult to accept the idea of a young man in a traditional nannying role, man nannies are increasingly popular.

56．Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

[A] Changes in Tradition [B] A New Job for Men [C] Mannies and Women Nannies [D] Baby Boys and Their Mannies 57．What does James like about his job as a nanny?

[A] He has received encouragement from his friends.

[B] He can easily do better than women nannies.

[C] He has more freedom to plan his own work.

[D] He is allowed to try out unusual methods.

58．Why are young mannies becoming popular in the United States?

[A] They are good at computer games.

[B] They are better trained for their jobs.

[C] They can get boys in more healthy activities.

[D] They can protect the boys like big brothers.

59．Who’s going to become a new man nanny soon?

[A] James Butters. [B] Peter Cummins. [C] Thomas. [D] Norland.

Mobile Phone Maimers

Mobile phones have changed the way we communicate (交流); they have also brought about problems in phone manners (礼仪). Gaik Lim, a Singapore-based advisor, has some advice on phone manners.

When dealing with missed calls, the person being called should return the call.

“Calls should be returned as soon as possible, and no later than the following day. Anything later than that, and an apology or a reason for the delay should go with the call.”

Text messages should be kept short and to the point. If they go beyond four or five lines, call or e-mail instead. “The use of short forms should be among family members and friends, never in a business situation.”

Speak in a low voice as if you were talking to someone next to you. If the connection is bad, don’t raise your voice in order to be heard, simply move to another place where the connection may be better. And if that doesn’t work, tell the caller to call you back or offer to call at a later time.

When a conversation is cut off due to a bad connection, the person who started the conversation should call back. “It may be inconvenient for the other person to return the call, especially if it’s an unlisted number, or an overseas call.”

When running late for a date or meeting, it is acceptable to text to inform that you’ll be delayed. Messages should be apologetic. “A message like ‘Sorry. Will be about 30 minutes late due to flight delay’ is considered polite and thoughtful.”Taking calls during meetings is only acceptable if you have informed the chairperson that you are expecting an urgent (紧急的) call. If you get an unexpected but urgent call, apologize to those present and offer a quick explanation as to why you have to take that call. Then leave the room to continue your phone conversation. 60．What should one do if he has missed a call?

[A] Text an apology to the caller. [B] Call back if it is from abroad.

[C] Wait till the caller calls again. [D] Return the call as early as one can.

61．Which of the following is considered acceptable?

[A] Text an apology when late for a meeting.

[B] Raise the voice when the connection is bad.

[C] Answer a phone call quietly during a meeting.

[D] Use the short forms in messages whenever possible.

62．According to the text, you had better make a call when ____.

[A] you are late for a meeting because of flight delay

[B] your text message is more than five lines

[C] your friend has moved to another place

[D] you communicate with close friends

63．What should one do if he’s got an urgent call during a meeting?

[A] Explain to the people present and then answer the call.

[B] Cut the call off at once and apologize to the caller later.

[C] Answer the call before apologizing to the chairperson.

[D] Leave the room immediately to answer the call.

第三篇Text 3

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的[A]、[B]、[C]和[D]四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Samuel H. Preston, a sociologist at the University of Pennsylvania, studied how the

American family is changing. He reported that by the time the average American couple

reaches 40 years of age, they have more parents than children. This finding shows

the change in lifestyles (生活方式) and duties of aging Americans. The average

middle-aged couple can look forward to caring for elderly parents some time after

their own children have grown up.

Because Americans are living longer than ever, more researchers and social workers

have begun to study care giving to improve care of the elderly. When people care

for an elderly relative, they often do not use community (社区) services, such as

adult (成人) daycare centres. If the care givers are adult children, they are more

likely to use such services, especially because they often have jobs and other business. However, the wife of an elderly person is much less likely to use support

services or to put the dependent person in a nursing home. Social workers discovered

that the reason for this difference was fear of becoming poor. An ill elderly person

may live for years, and medical care and nursing homes are very expensive. An elderly

couple’s savings can disappear very quickly. The other half, usually the wife, can

be left in poor living conditions. As a result, she often tries to take care of her

husband herself for as long as she can.

64．An example of changes in American lifestyles is that ____.

[A] they prefer to have more children

[B] the elderly like living with their children

[C] the middle-aged couples have different caregiving duties

[D] the average age for American couples to have children is 40

65．Who are more likely to use community services to care for the elderly in the

family?

[A] The sick. [B] The poor. [C] The parents.

[D] The adult children.

66．According to the social workers’ study, one of the problems that elderly people

have to consider is ____.

[A] jobs and businesses [B] living expenses

[C] change of life-styles [D] separation from adult

children

67．What would be the best title for the text?

[A] Care for the Elderly [B] The Best Community

Services

[C] The High Cost of Nursing Homes [D] How to Improve Parent-Child Relationships

British scientists have been given £ 1 million by the European Commission to

find out if a robot (机器人) can safely be employed to stir (搅拌) soup.

The research, based at the Bristol Robotics Lab (BRL), will look at the problems of a human and a robot working together in the same space; for example, in a kitchen where the service robot is performing a task such as stirring soup while you add cream.

Professor Chris Melhuish explained, “When we work with other humans, we are trying to understand facial expression, body movements, quality of voice, as well as sharing a goal and understanding and following spoken instructions.”

“For example, in the soup situation, not only does the robot need to know what the goal is (making the soup)but he also needs to know how hard to stir the soup, what it means when you hold up your hand to say enough ^ to understand the look of pain on your face if you accidentally get wet with hot soup, and to stop stirring when told. The research aims to develop the rules we need to introduce this level of cleverness into service robots who are working closely with people.”

Professor Melhuish, of the BRL, said robots working in factories at present are kept behind gates for safety reasons一a measure that is not practical in the kitchen. The research is a joint effort between robotic engineers and scientists from West of England and Bristol universities.

68．According to Professor Melhuish, a service robot should be able to ____.

[A] understand human instructions

[B] show feelings by the looks on its face

[C] follow the thoughts in its master’s mind

[D] express itself through body movements

69．We can infer from the text that robots now ____.

[A] are clever enough to make good soups

[B] know the rules for working with humans

[C] cannot work well when kept behind gates

[D] do not understand human expressions of pain

70．How are service robots at home different from those in factories?

[A] They perform easier tasks. [B] They can work in small spaces.

[C] They know human goals better. [D] They work closely with humans. 71．The author seems to believe that ____.

[A] tasks like soup-stirring are rather difficult for robots

[B] one million pounds is quite enough for the study

[C] robots should be tested first in the kitchen

[D] robots will soon be working in factories

Beijing has extended its ban on operating outdoor barbecues from the city center outward to selected suburbs, according to municipal authorities. A year ago, Beijing banned restaurants from operating outdoor barbecues within the fourth ring road area. And now, the ban has extended to several suburbs, including Mentougou, Fangs- han, Tongzhou, Shunyi, Daxing, Pinggu and Miyun. The barbecue ban was announced to reduce Beijing' s air pollution, as barbecue has long been accused as one of the major contributors to haze. According to Wang Yuesi, a researcher from the Institute of Atmospheric Physics in Chinese Academy of Sciences, barbecuing can generate a lot of PM 2.5, harmful airborne particles measur- ing less than 2.5 microns in diameter. "Considering the seriousness of the air pollution in Beijing, we have to ban everything that may do harm to our environment!" Wang said. The issue has divided Chinese netizens, as half agreed with the policy while the other half called this grand plan nothing but "empty talk. "

Once again I spelt out directions even a blind person could follow, I glanced impatiently at my watch, and waited. Only two hours remained until my flight left and it was an hour-and-a-half trip to the airport. Outside, heavy rains were pouring down. My house was so far north in the city that buses pass only three times a day. The telephone rang again. "Terribly sorry," began the man at the taxi company. Then I rea-lized that the taxi company, flooded with calls, could only offer in-city runs. I had heard this happens when the weather gets bad. I shouted into the phone that I had a plane to catch and I would meet the taxi outside my house. Standing in the wind-driven rain, I looked up and down the road. No taxi. A car went by, driver and passenger staring at the crazy foreigner in the downpour. Finally a white car appeared and pulled to a stop. A young man threw open the door, waving for me to get in. Shaking with cold and anger, I climbed in.

2007年3月公共英语考试三级模拟试题一及答案(2)

2007年3月公共英语考试三级模拟试题一及答案(2) Section Ⅲ Reading Comprehension （40 minutes） Part A Directions: Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET by drawing a thick line across the corresponding letter in the brackets. Text 1 After a busy day of work and play, the body needs to rest. Sleep is necessary for good health. During this time, the body recovers from the activities of the previous day. The rest that you get while sleeping enables your body to prepare itself for the next day. There are four levels of sleep, each being a little deeper than the one before. As you sleep, your muscles relax little by little. Your heart beats more slowly, and your brain slows down. After you reach the fourth level, your body shifts back and forth from one level of sleep to the other. Although your mind slows down, from time to time you will dream. Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly （Although your eyelids are closed）. This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement. If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very deeply. Other people believe that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy. There is also an old suggestion the counting sheep will put you to sleep! 46 A good title for this passage is ____. A. Sleep C. Dreams B. Good Health D. Work and Rest 47. The word drowsy in the last paragraph means ____.
