2004年11月北京成人本科學位英語考試A卷

Part I Reading Comprehension Passage 1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem”.To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much.But scientific evidence does little to support this idea.Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food.In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn't watch television.Several modem studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people.In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people.A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts:

The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost.The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.(76)[Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.]

1.The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that__________.A.they are too slim B.they work too hard

C.they are too fat D.they lose too much body fat

2.According to the article, given 500 adult Americans, __________ people will have a “weight problem”.A.30 B.50 C.100 D.150

3.Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a “weight problem”?

A.Yes, there is plenty of evidence.B.Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.C.There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.D.We don't know because the information is not given.4.In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s __________.A.ate more food and had more physical activities B.ate less food but had more activities

C.ate less food and had less physical exercise D.had more weight problems

5.Modem scientific researches have reported to us that__________.A.fat people eat less food and are less active

B.fat people eat more food than slim people and are more active

C.fat people eat more food than slim people but are less active D.thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intake Passage 2

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children's language development.It is surprising but true.(77)[How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children's language development.If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child's language skills increase].A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents.Half of the children participated in the experimental study;the other half acted as the control group.In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions.For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?” rather than “Is the doggie running away?”(78)[The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers].At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5.5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary.Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.6.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A.Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.B.Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.C.Active children should read more and be given more attention.D.Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.7.What does “it” in line 2 can most probably be replaced by?

B.the age of the children 可以看出，父母接受了兩個小時的培訓，而控制組的父母并沒有此培訓。

C.tile books that were read D.the number of the children

10.The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that __________.A.parents should be trained to read to their children

B.the more children read, the more intelligent they will become C.children's language skills increase when they are required to respond actively D.children who read actively seem six months older Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

(79)[The agriculture revolution in the nineteenth century involved two things: the invention of labor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture.] Labor-saving machinery naturally appeared first where labor was scarce.“In Europe”, said Thomas Jefferson, “the object is to make the most of their land, labor being sufficient;here it is to make the most of our labor, land being abundant”.It was in America, therefore, that the great advances in nineteenth-century agricultural machinery first came.At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude(粗糙的)plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.(80)[By 1860，most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early form].The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow.As early as 1890 Charles Newbolt of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his invention.The farmers, however, would home none of it, claiming that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds grow.Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to the plow, until in 1869, James Oliver of South Bend，Indiana, turned out the first chilled-steel plow.11.The word “here”(Para.1, Line 6)refers to__________.A.Europe B.America C.New Jersey D.Indiana

12.Which of the following statement is NOT true?

A.The need for labor helped the invention of machinery in America.B.The farmer rejected Charles Newbolt's plow for fear of ruin of their fields.C.Both Europe and America had great need for farm machinery.D.It was in Indiana that the first chilled-steel plow was produced.13.The passage is mainly about__________.A.the agriculture revolution

B.the invention of labor-saving machinery C.the development of scientific agriculture D.the farming machinery in America

14.At the opening of the nineteenth-century, farmers in America__________.A.preferred light tools

B.were extremely self-reliant(自給的)C.had many tools D.had very few tools

15.It is implied but not stated in the passage that __________.A.there was a shortage of workers on American farms

B.the most important of the early invention was the iron plow C.after 1869, many people devoted their attention to the plow D.Charles Newbolt had made a fortune by his cast-iron plow Part II Vocabulary and Structure

[文章大意及重要詞匯] 美國30%的成人（adult）都有“體重（weight）問題”。大多數人認為造成這一現象的原因很明顯（obvious）他們吃的太胖了。但是這一觀點卻沒有足夠的科學證據（evidence）來支撐?；仡櫼幌?0世紀處的美國，當時的人們普遍比現在的人瘦，吃得比現在的人多，同時他們的體力勞動（physically）很辛苦、經常走路、很少使用機器、也不看電視。

現在許多研究也表明。從整體上（average）來看胖人比瘦人吃得要少。而1979年對倫敦3545個辦公室人員的調查也恰恰證實了這一觀點。

研究同時也表明瘦人比胖人運動量更大。美國斯坦福大學醫學院的研究人員發現了下列有趣的事實：

運動量越大的人，消耗的體內脂肪越多。運動量越大的人，飯量越大。因此（Thus），運動量最大的人吃得也最多，但同時消耗的體內脂肪也最多。1.答案：C 細節題。答案在第一段第一句話,“In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem許多美國成年人身體問題是他們太胖了”。2.答案：D計算題。答案在第一段第三句話,“In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem””做一個簡單的剩法就得到答案。

3.答案：C細節題。答案在第一段第二和第三句話,“To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much But scientific evidence does little to support this idea因此幾乎沒有任何科學家依據證明這一點”。

4.答案：A細節題。答案在第一段。“Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they [ate more food.] In those days people [worked harder physically]” 題干中[worked harder physically]相當于答案中had more physical activities。

5.答案：A細節題。答案在第一段。“Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they [ate more food.] In those days people [worked harder physically]” 題干中[worked harder physically]相當于答案中had more physical activities。

[文章大意及重要詞匯] 父母通過有技巧（techniques）的朗讀可以讓孩子的語言能力得到迅速的發展（development）。這一事實雖令人吃驚，但卻是真實的。父母和孩子談話的方式對孩子的語言能力發展影響很大（makes a big difference）。如果父母鼓勵孩子對其所朗讀的 內容做出積極反應（respond），孩子的語言能力就會有很大的提高。

我們在30個三歲的孩子和他們的父母中間做了一個實驗。一半孩子屬于實驗（experimental）組，另一半是控制組。實驗組的家長接受了一個兩個小時的培訓，要求他們問孩子們開放式的問題而不能問用“是”或者“不是”來回答的簡單問題，如何引導他們思考其他選擇的可能性以及如何表揚（praise）孩子的正確選擇。

實驗初期，孩子的語言能力發展并沒有明顯區別。一個月后，實驗組的孩子們比控制組的孩子在語言表達和詞匯量方面領先5.5個月。9個月后，實驗組的孩子們仍然在這些方面比控制組的孩子領先（advance）6個月。6.答案：D 推斷題。答案在第一段。

7.答案：A 詞義題。根據上下文，it指父母能提高孩子的語言能力。

8.答案：C推斷題，答案在第二段，可以看出，父母應該問一些開放性的問題，而不是只需回答是或不是問題。

9.答案：A細節題，答案在第二段，區別在于實驗組里的家長接受了培訓。10.答案：C推斷題，答案在第一段最后一句。選項C即為該句的同義改寫。[文章大意及重要詞匯] 19世紀的農業（agriculture）革命（revolution）包括兩個部分：省力農業機械（machinery）的發明（invention）和科學農業的發展。省力機械通常在勞動力缺乏的地方首先出現。托馬斯·杰弗遜說過“在歐洲是為了充分利用土地，那里勞動力非常充足（sufficient）；而這里則是為了充分利用勞動力，土地非常充足”。因此，19世紀農業機械首先在美國取得了巨大進步（advances）。19世紀處了粗糙的犁以外，農民幾乎可以肩背所有存在的農具。到1860年人們就已經設計出許多今天仍在使用的機器的雛形。鐵犁是早期發明中最重要的。早在1980年新澤西州的查爾斯· 紐波特已經開始致力于鍛鐵犁的研究，并把他的全部財富投入到其他發明的推廣應用。但是，當時的農民都拒絕采用，他們認為鐵會毒害（poison）土壤和導致雜草叢生。盡管如此（nevertheless），許多人仍然花大量的精力（attention）致力于研究，直到1869年，印第安納州南本德市的詹姆斯·奧利弗研制出第一用冷卻鋼制造的犁。

11.答案：B語義題。根據上下文，這里的“here”指的是美國。

12.答案：C判斷題。可采用逐項排除法，首先B和D比較容易定位，閱讀原文后，肯定這兩個選項是正確，接著排除A和C中的一個，根據題意可知A是正確的，C是錯誤的。

13.答案：B主旨題。文章的中心思想應當是：“節省勞動力的機器的發明”。

14.答案：D推斷題。根據題意“At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude(粗糙的)plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.可見他們的農具很多”。15.答案：A推斷題。文章暗含的內容：“美國缺乏勞動力”。16.答案：A固定搭配name after 以…為名。

17.答案：B固定搭配protest against 對某事提出抗議。18.答案：C固定搭配apply for 申請。

19.答案：B固定搭配charge with 指控，指責。

20.答案：A固定搭配in practice 在實踐中，實際上。

21.答案：C固定搭配be independent of 獨立于…之外,不受…支配。

23.答案：B固定搭配feel like doing sth 想要…。

24.答案：C虛擬語氣的用法It's vital that +動詞原形，這是一種典型的虛擬語氣。

25.答案：B形式賓語it的用法consider +it +adj.+ that…it做形式賓語，真正的賓語是 that后的從句。

26.答案：D非謂語動詞的用法，本句為現在分詞短語做原因狀語，分詞的主語和句子的主語一致。

27.答案：A主語從句的用法，What was once regarded as impossible為主語從句。

28.答案：B主謂一致，本句的主語是Mr.Smith, together with his wife and children 是插入語。不改變主語的數。

29.答案：B動名詞的用法，min doing sth介意做某事做賓語。當動名詞前有某人做其邏輯主語時。用其形容詞性的物主代詞。

30.答案：D將來完成時，以By引導的將來的時間后面接將來完成時。

31.答案：C現在分詞做賓語補足語，表示動作正在進行。

32.答案：A虛擬語氣，Without引導含蓄的虛擬條件句，本句是與現在的事實相反的句子。

33.答案：C倒裝結構，Only 放在句首，句子倒裝。

34.答案：C不定式的用法，不定式短語用作動語修飾名詞，主語和動詞之間為被動關系，因此用被動形式。

35.答案：C情態動詞，主語+ must + have +過去分詞，表示對過去事實的推測。

36.答案：A動詞不定式的疑問式的用法，連接代詞或副詞+不定式夠成了不定式疑問式，在句子中可以做主語、賓語、表語和狀語。

37.答案：A短語辨析，in spite of 不管，不管；because of因為，由于；instead of 代替；on account of由于，因為。根據句意A符合。38.答案：D固定搭配be busy doing sth 忙于做…。

39.答案：D固定搭配give a account of 報告，敘述，說明。

40.答案：B不可數名詞的用法。句中room做“空間，余地”，為不可數名詞。A和D中的room是可數名詞；C中的great deal應為a great deal of，后接可數名詞。

41.答案：B將來完成時，By the time后接一個表示將來時間的詞或短語或一個表將來動作的從句時，主句要用將來完成時。

42.答案：B虛擬語氣，would have done sth.表與現在事實相反。43.答案：A虛擬語氣的特殊形式，it's time+that+一般過去時。

44.答案：C倒裝結構，由as引導的讓步狀語從句置于主句之前時表語要倒裝。45.答案：D動詞的用法，make himself understood使自己的意思被別人明白。

46.答案：D應改為to buy，which to buy是動詞不定式的疑問式。47.答案：D應改為welcome,做謂語動詞，一般現在時。

48.答案：C應改為found，謂語動詞和主語之間的關系為被動。49.答案：D neither表示否定意義，但句中已經有了否定詞no。

50.答案：C應改為receiving，look forward to doing sth，盼望做…。

51.答案：C應改為that, it is…，that…強調句型（時間）。

53.答案：A代詞用錯，通讀全句，可知A中I不對，應改為he。

54.答案：D應改為handling，和前面的choosing是平行結構，接在such as的后面。55.答案：A應改為Compared，因為分詞的主語和句子的主語不一致。Part IV Cloze key

56.C 57.D 58.A 59.A 60.B 61.A 62.A 63.C 64.D 65.D 66.B 67.B 68.C 69.B 70.D 71.D 72.B 73.C 74.D 75.D 76.解析：定語從句的翻譯。

譯文“跑得最快的人吃得也最多，其消耗的體內脂肪也就最多”。77.解析：翻譯時注意，第一句主語是一個動詞不定式的疑問句，第二句是含有條件狀語從句的復合句。

譯文“父母于孩子的談話方式對孩子的語言能力的發展影響很大，如果父母鼓勵孩子對他（她）所讀內容做出積極反應，孩子的語言能力就可以得到明顯提高”。78.解析：動詞不定式的疑問式并列句的翻譯。

譯文“實驗組的父母還學會了如何幫助孩子們找出答案，如何引導孩子思考其他答案的可能性，以及如何鼓勵孩子得出正確答案”。

79.解析：本題生單詞較多，同學們翻譯時多注意。

譯文“19世紀的農業革命包括兩個方面：節省勞力的機器的發明和科技農業的發展”。80.解析：本題是對時態和具體詞組的考查，漢語的時態通過時間副詞來表示，英文則通過動詞的不同變化。譯文“絕大多數今天使用的農具，在1860年已具雛形”。81.譯文“we are proud that our new products are popular among consumers”。82.解析：委婉的語氣應該用Can you /could you，以表示對說話人尊重。譯文“Could you speak louder to make yourself heard? ”。

83.解析：選詞在這句話中起主要作用，漢語中“除了”并不會引起任何歧義，但英語中besides與在漢語卻只有一個對應詞，意思卻大相徑庭，同學們在翻譯過程中要學會活用。

譯文“You’d better learn another foreign language besides English”。

84.解析：表揚和批評是本題翻譯的重點，這里用它的ing形式比較合適，另外要體現比較級的用法more …than…。譯文“Praising is more effective than criticizing in educating children”。

85.解析：It is…that…是固定句型，同時be +of +n，相當于這個名詞的形容詞形式。譯文“It is known to us all that studying is of vital importance to a person’s growing-up.”。

PartⅠReading Comprehension Passage 1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

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.(76)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.(77)If you have trouble falling asleep, some people recommend breathing very slowly and very deeply.Other people believed that drinking warm milk will help make you drowsy.There is also an old suggestion that counting sheep will put you to sleep!1.A good title for this passage is_____.A.Sleep B.Good Health C.Dreams D Work and Rest

Obviously television has both advantages and disadvantages.(78)In the first place, television is not only a convenient source of entertainment, but also a comparatively cheap one.With a TV set in the family people don’t have to pay for expensive seats at the theatre, the cinema, or the opera.All they have to do is to push a button or turn a knob, and they can see plays, films, operas and shows of every kind.Some people, however, think that this is where the danger lies.The television viewers need do nothing.He does not even have use his legs if he has a remote control.He makes no choice and exercises, no judgment.He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort on his part.Television, it is often said, keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics.The most distant countries and the strangest customs are brought right into one’s sitting room.It could be argued that the radio performs this service as well;but on television everything is much more living, much more real.Yet here again there is a danger.The television screen itself has a terrible, almost physical charm for us.(79)We get so used to looking at the movements on it, so dependent on its pictures, that it begins to control our lives.People are often heard to say that their television sets have broken down and that they have suddenly found that they have far more time to do things and that they have actually begun to talk to each other again.It makes one think, doesn’t it?

There are many other arguments for and against television.We must realize that television itself is neither good nor bad.It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society.6.What is the major function of paragraph 1? A.To arouse the reader’s concern

B.To introduce the theme of the whole passage C.To summarize the whole passage D.To state the primary uses of TV

7.Television, as a source of entertainment, is____.A.not very convenient B.very expensive C.quite dangerous D.relatively cheap 8.Why are some people against TV?

C.it enables us to have a rest D.it controls our lives 10.According to the passage, whether TV is good or not depends on____.A.its quality B.people’s attitude towards it C.how we use it D.when we use it

Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

Too often young people get themselves employed quite by accident, not knowing what lies in the way of opportunity for promotion, happiness and security.As a result, they are employed doing jobs that afford them little or no satisfaction.(80)Our school leavers face so much competition that they seldom care what they do as long as they can earn a living.Some stay long at a job and learn to like it;others quit from one to another looking for something to suit them.The young graduates who leave the university look for jobs that offer a salary up to their expectation.Very few go out into the world knowing exactly what they want and realizing their own abilities.The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution.Nearly all grope(摸索)in the dark and their chief concern when they look for a job is to ask what salary is like.They never bother to think whether they are suited for the job or, even more important, whether the job suits them.Having a job is more than merely providing yourself and your dependants with daily bread and some money for leisure and entertainment.It sets a pattern of life and, in many ways, determines social status in life, selection of friends, leisure and interest.In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest.Nothing is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest, for it will not only discourage your desire to succeed in life but also ruin your talents and ultimately make you an emotional wreck(受到嚴重傷害的人)and a bitter person.11.The reason why some people are unlikely to succeed in life is that they A.have ruined their talents

B.have taken on an unsuitable job C.think of nothing but their salary D.are not aware of their own potential

12.The difficulty in choosing a suitable job lies mainly in that_____.A.much competition has to be faced

B.many employees have no working experience

C.the young people only care about how much they can earn D.schools fail to offer students appropriate vocational guidance

13.Which of the following statements is most important according to the passage? A.Your job must suit your interest.B.Your job must set a pattern of life.C.Your job must offer you a high salary.D.Your job must not ruin your talents.14.The best title for this passage would be____.A.What Can A Good Job Offer B.Earning A Living

C.Correct Attitude On Job-hunting D.How To Choose A Job

【文章大意及重要詞匯】

在繁忙的工作和活動了一天之后,你的身體需要休息。睡眠對良好的健康是必要（necessary）。在這段時間里,身體從前一天（previous）的勞累中恢復（recover）過來。睡眠時獲得的能量使你的身體為第二天做準備（prepare）。

睡眠一共有四個階段，其程度是逐漸加深的。在你睡覺的時候，你的肌肉（muscle）逐漸放松（relax）下來，心跳減緩，大腦活動放慢。在到達第四個階段之后，你的身體將在四個階段之間循環。

盡管你的大腦放松下來了，但是你還會不時的做夢。研究睡眠的專家指出，在你做夢的時候你的眼珠（eyeball）開始快速運動。這個階段我們稱之為REM，他表示快速的眼部運動。如果你入睡困難，有些人建議進行深呼吸。有些人認為，和熱牛奶使人有睡意（drowsy）從而有助于入睡，還有一個建議就是通過數羊來加速睡眠。

1.答案：A 主旨題。適合文章的題目是？A, 睡眠。文章的第一段告訴我們，Sleep is necessary for good health，第二段和最后一段也提出了睡眠分四個階段及REM節段，文章是圍繞睡眠展開的。

2.答案：D 詞匯題。最后一段中drowsy 是什么意思？D, 欲睡的，困的。根據意思應選D。

3.答案：B 細節題。文章暗示出，睡眠不足會導致？B, 健康狀況差。根據文章和常識可以選出是B。

4.答案：D 細節題。在REM節段，會出現下列那些行為？D，眼睛快速的運轉和做夢。文章最后一段講，Scientists who study sleep state that when dreaming occurs, your eyeballs begin to move more quickly。This stage of sleep is called REM, which stands for rapid eye movement。

5.答案：D 細節題。成人每天需要多長時間的睡眠？D, 文章沒有告訴。文章雖是講睡眠的但是沒有告訴我們成人的睡眠量是多少，所以應選D?！疚恼麓笠饧爸匾~匯】

很明顯，電視有利（advantage）也有弊（disadvantage）。

首先電視不僅是一種便利（convenient）而且相對便宜的娛樂（entertainment）方式，家里有了電視，人們就沒有必要花大量金錢去劇院（theatre）、電影院或者歌劇院了。他們只需要按一下開關（button）就可以在家里看各種比賽、電影、歌劇以及其他各種各樣的電視節目。但是，有些人也提出了電視的弊病所在，觀眾什么也不用做，如果有遙控器的話，他們甚至不用走路。他們沒有自己的選擇和判斷（judgment），也無法鍛煉自己。他們完全是被動（passive）的，它不需要做任何的努力。

電視讓我們了解時事和科學及政治的發展。即使最遙遠的國家和最奇怪的風俗習慣（customs）也可以通過電視在家里得知。有人爭論（argue）到，收音機也有這樣的功 能，但是電視展現給人的是更生動和逼真的畫面。但是它也有弊端。電視屏幕對人的身體沒有好處。我們如此習慣的看屏幕上的一舉一動，如此依賴于（dependent on）看它展現給我們的畫面，以至于電視開始控制我們的生活。有些時候，我們會聽到人們說電視壞了，他們突然之間意識到自己有大量的時間干別的事情了，也開始彼此交流了。這發人深思，事嗎？

關于電視弊和利的討論還很多，我們必須認識到電視本身是沒有好壞的，它對社會的價值取決于人們如何去用它。

6.答案：B 推理題。文章第一段話的主要作用是？B，介紹文章的主旨。第一段話，很明顯，電視有利也有弊。這是對文章主旨的介紹。

7.答案：D 細節題。電視作為一種娛樂方式，是——D，相對便宜。根據文章的第二段第一句，首先電視不僅是一種便利而且相對便宜的娛樂方式，得出答案是D。

8.答案：B 細節題。為什么有些人反對電視？B，因為看電視的人完全是被動的。文章第二段，Some people, however, think that this is where the danger lies.The television viewers need do nothing.He does not even have use his legs if he has a remote control.He makes no choice and exercises, no judgment.He is completely passive and has everything presented to him without any effort on his part.，可以看出答案是B。

9.答案：A 細節題。電視一個最明顯的好處是？A，讓我們獲取信息。本文第三段，Television, it is often said, keeps one informed about current events and the latest developments in science and politics，應該選A。

10.答案：C 細節題。根據文章，電視的好壞取決于？C，我們怎么使用它。文章最后一段話，It is the uses that it is put to that determine its value to society?！疚恼麓笠饧爸匾~匯】

年輕人是很偶然（by accident）找到工作的，而不考慮提升（promotion）的機會（opportunity），快樂和安全的因素。結果他們找的工作給他們很少甚至根本沒有滿足感。我們的大學畢業生面臨著如此激烈的競爭（competition），因此他們很少在乎從事何種工作，只要能謀生就行了。有些人長時間干同一份工作，并且試著去喜歡它；有些人放棄了一個又一個工作，一直在找適合他們的。剛畢業的大學生（graduation）要找的工作使那些能滿足他們薪水（salary）要求的。

大部分人進入社會卻不知道自己想要什么和真正了解自己的能力。所有這些疑惑是由于我們的教育體制（institution）沒有給學生提供一個合適的職業指南（guidance）造成的，所有的人都是在摸索（grope）中前進，他們在找工作時首要考慮的是薪水，卻從來不去認真的考慮他們是否適合做這些工作或者這樣的工作是否適合他們。工作不單單是為你和需要你養活的人提供每天的食物和用于工作之余休閑（leisure）娛樂（entertainment）的消費，更重要的是它決定了你的生活方式，影響著你的社會地位（status），朋友的選擇和興趣所在。沒有什么比擁有一份自己不喜歡的工作更可悲（pathetic）的了，因為這樣的工作不但挫?。╠iscourage）了你對成功的渴望，而且妨礙了你對天賦（talent）的發揮，最終使你變成一個精神上受到嚴重傷害的人（wreck），和備感痛苦的人。

11.答案：B 推理題。有些人很難取得成功是因為他們？B，找了一個不合適的工作。整個文章都在講年輕人是很偶然找到工作的，因此他們在工作中很少甚至根本沒有滿足感，由此可以推出應選B。

12.答案：D 細節題。年輕人很難找到適合自己的工作是因為？D，學校沒有給學生適當的擇業指南。文章第二段，The reason behind all this confusion is that there never has been a proper vocational guidance in our educational institution。

13.答案：A 細節題。根據文章，下列哪一個是最重要的？A，你的工作必須是你喜歡的。文章第三段，In choosing a career you should first consider the type of work which will suit your interest，選A。

14.答案：D 主旨題。最適合文章的標題是那一個？D，如何找一份好工作。據文章大意得出應選D。

15.答案：B 詞匯。文章第二段中的pathetic 的意思是？B，痛苦的，悲慘的，可憐。文章最后一段，Nothing is more pathetic than taking on a job in which you have no interest。

It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness.Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do.Instead, the happiest are those who are busy.(79)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard.Work serves as a bridge between man and reality.By work people come into with each other.By collective activity they find friendship and warmth.This is helpful to health.The loss of work means the loss of everything.It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement.Word makes one feel his value and status in society.When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(80)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be.Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1.The underlined word “average” in Paragraph I means ______.A.healthy

B.lazy

C.ordinary D.poor

2.The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that ______.A.housewives are poorer than career women

B.housewives have more children than career women C.housewives have less chance to communicate with others D.housewives eat less food than career women

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A.Busy people have nothing to do at home.B.High achievers don’t care about their families.C.There is no friendship and warmth at home.D.A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.4.We can infer from the passage that those who do not work _____.A.are likely to live a shorter life B.will lose everything at home C.can live as long as those who work D.have more time to make new friends 5.The best title for this passage may be _____.A.People Should Find a Job B.Working Hard Is Good for Health C.People Should Make More Friends by Work D.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of Everything Passage 2 A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes.Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war.But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology.In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art.(78)In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented;that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed.Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主觀的): it reflects emotions and opinions.The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist.In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its abuse(濫用)of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs.For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed.Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible.Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church walls.By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was(and still is)its absence of human and animal images.This reflects the Islamic belief that statues(雕像)are not holy.6.More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because ___.A.art history shows us nothing but the political values B.general history only focuses on politics C.art history gives us an insight(洞察力)into the essential qualities of a time and a place D.general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psychology 7.Art is subjective in that _____.A.a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it B.it only reflects people’s anger or sadness about social problems C.it can easily arouse people’s anger about their government

D.artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society 8.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B.Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808 C.In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other building.D.For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses _____.A.the development of art history B.he difference between general history and art history C.what we can learn from art D.the influence of artists on art history 10.It can be concluded from the passage that _____.A.Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in their paintings B.it is more difficult to study art history than general history C.a history teacher must be quite objective D.artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their political beliefs Passage 3 Blind people can “see” things by using other parts of their bodies.This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color.If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously(無意識地)。

（76）Manufacturers(生產商)have discovered by experience that sugar sells.Badly in green wrappings, that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and that cosmetics(化妝品)should never be packaged in brown.These discoveries have grown into a branch of color psychology.Color psychology now finds application in everything from fashion to decoration.Some of our preferences are clearly psychological.Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore associated with calm, while yellow is a day color with associations of energy and incentive(刺激).For a primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the color of blood and anger and the heat that came with effort.And green is associated with passive defense and self-protection.(77)Experiments have shown that colors, partly because of their psychological associations, also have a direct psychological effect.People exposed to bring red show an increase in breath, in heartbeat and in blood pressure;red is exciting.Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect;it is a calming color.Because of its exciting meaning, red is chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm.So fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop the traffic dead.11.Our preferences for certain colors are _______ according to the passage.A.associated with the time of the day

B.dependent on our personalities

C.are linked with our ancestors

D.partly due to psychological factors 12.If people are exposed to bright red, which of the following things does NOT happen?

A.They breathe faster.B.They feel satisfied.C.Their blood pressure rises.D.Their hearts beat faster.13.Which of the following statements if NOT true according to the passage?

A.Color probably has an effect on us which we are not conscious of.B.Yellow fire engines have caused many bad accidents in some advanced communities.C.People exposed to pure blue start to breathe more slowly.D.The psychology of color is of some practical use.14.Which of the following statements if TRUE according to the passage?

A.Manufacturers often sell sugar in green wrapping.B.Dark blue bring people the feeling of being energetic.C.Primitive people associated heat and anger with red.D.Green and yellow are associated with calm and passive defense.15.Which of the following could be the most suitable title for the passage?

A.The Branch of Color Psychology

B.Color and Its Meanings

C.The Practical Use of Color Psychology

D.Color and Feelings.全文翻譯

第一篇

科學家發現，努力工作的人要比普通人的壽命長。有工作的女人要比家庭主婦健康。有證據表明無業者比有工作的人身體要差。一項調查顯示，當失業率增加1%的時候，死亡率就會增加2%。所有這些都說明一點，那就是工作有益健康。

為什么工作有益健康呢？是因為工作讓人們變得繁忙，從而遠離孤獨。研究表明，當人們無事可做的時候，就會感到不快樂，擔憂和孤獨。相反地，最快樂的人就是那些忙碌的人。那些喜歡他們的工作并取得很高成就的人覺得他們努力工作的時候是最幸福的時候。工作是連接人類和現實的橋梁。人們通過工作與他人接觸，通過集體活動找到友誼和溫暖。這對健康是有好處的。沒有了工作就意味著沒有了一切。失業影響人的精神狀態，從而使人生病。

另外，工作給人一種責任感和成就感。工作使人感受到自己的價值以及在社會中的地位。當一個作家完成了他的著作，一個醫生成功地對病人做了手術，一個教師看到自己學生的成長，他們的幸福無以言表。

通過上述情況，我們可以得出這樣一個結論，那就是，你工作的越多，你就會越幸福，越健康。

第二篇

藝術史的學習可能是學習文化的一個好的方法，因為他比在普通歷史課堂上學的要多。大多數典型的歷史課程主要關注政治、經濟和戰爭。但是藝術史關注的遠比這個多，因為藝術不僅反映一個人的政治價值，而且也反映出他的宗教信仰、情緒和心理。另外，藝術也能夠提供我們祖先日常行為的信息。簡而言之，藝術傳達了一個時代和一個地區的基本情況，藝術研究提供給我們的理解要比大多數歷史書提供給我們的理解要深刻的多。

在歷史書中，講述了一個國家政治生活的客觀信息；也就是說，只給出了政治事實，但是并沒有表達觀點。另一方面，藝術是主觀的：它反映了情緒和觀點。偉大的西班牙畫家弗朗西斯科戈雅恐怕是第一個真正地政治藝術家。在他1808年著名的畫作“The Third of May”中，他批評西班牙政府對人們濫用武力。

同樣，藝術也可以反映一個文化的宗教信仰。在歐洲，幾百年來，宗教藝術幾乎是唯一的藝術形式。教堂和其他的宗教建筑內充滿了描述圣經人物和圣經故事的畫作。盡管人們不能讀圣經，但是他們仍舊能夠理解教堂墻壁上圖畫描述的圣經故事。于此相對照的是，中東地區藝術的主要特征是人類和動物形象出現在藝術中。這反映了伊斯蘭信仰中雕像不是神圣的。

第三篇

盲人可以用身體的其他部位來“看”東西。這種事實可以幫助我們理解我們關于顏色的感覺。如果盲人能夠感知顏色的不同，那么我們可能也無意識地受到了顏色的影響。生產商通過經驗發現，綠色包裝的糖賣得不好，藍色的食品被認為是令人不愉快的，化妝品絕不應該用棕色來包裝。這些發現已經成為顏色心理學的一個分支。

現在發現，顏色心理學應用在從時尚到裝飾的一切事物上。我們的一些喜好很明顯是心理的。深藍色是夜晚天空的顏色，因此和平靜有關，而黃色是白天的顏色，與精力和刺激有關。對一個原始人來說，白天的活動就是打獵和攻擊，而他很快就看到了紅色，這是努力相伴而來的血液和憤怒以及熱量的顏色。而綠色與被動防御以及自我保護相關聯。

實驗表明，顏色，因為他們與心理學關聯，因此也有一個直接的心理效應。人表現出鮮紅的顏色，表明了呼吸、心跳記憶血壓的增加；紅色是興奮的表現。純藍色的類似表現具有完全相反的影響；它是使人平靜的顏色。紅色因為其有能使人興奮的意義，因此被作為的危險的記號，但是更細的分析表明，生動的黃色能產生更基本的警告的意義。因此，在一些先進的社區，急急趕路的救火車和救護車用鮮艷的黃色阻止交通堵塞。

In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six.At this stage nearly all the teachers are women, Mostly married.(80)The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested.The old authoritarian(要絕對服從的)methods of education were discredited(不被認可)rather a long time ago-so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than gibing them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good.So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process.This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive;however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education.Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails.Ti probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.11.According to the passage, the U.S.elementary education is supposed to make children _____.A.sensible and sensitive

A computer is high tech.So is a communications satellite.A modern manufacturing system is surely high tech.High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980' s.Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens, etc.“ State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible.It is a product that is based on the very latest methods and technology.Something that is “state of the art” is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry.A state of the art television set, for example, uses the modernest electronic design and parts.It is the best that one can buy.“State of the art” is not a new expression.Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best and most modern way of doing something.Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970's.The reason was the computer revolution.Every computer company claimed that its computers were “ state of the art”.Computer technology changed so fast that a state of the art computer today might be old tomorrow.The expression “ state of the art ” became as common and popular as computers themselves.Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art”.16.What is the purpose of the passage A.To tell how “high tech” and “state of the art” have developed.B.To give examples of “high tech”.C.To tell what “high tech” and “state of the art ” are.D.To describe very modern technology.17.What can we infer from the passage? A.American stores could provide new kinds of products to people.B.High tech describes a technology that is not traditional.C.“State of the art” is not as popular as “high tech”.D.A modern plough pulled by oxen is “state of the art”.18.All the following examples are high tech except ______.A.a microwave oven

B.a home computer

C.a hand pump

D.a satellite 19.Which of the fbl1owing statements is not true? A.Since the computer revolution, the expression “ state of art“ has become popular.B.“ State of the art” means something that is the best one can buy.C.With the rapid development of computer,“ state of the art” computer may easily become out of date.D.All kinds of products are “state of the art” nowadays.20.The best title for the passage is__________.A.Computer Technology

B.High Tech and State of the Art C.Most Advanced Technology

D.Two New Expressions Passage Two The Chinese have used a method called acupuncture(針灸)to perform operations for about 4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep.This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body.The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training.But to be skillful requires greater time.The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful.This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body.But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture.They are trying to develop convincing theory to explain how the needles work, in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep.It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21.Acupuncture is_________.A.a medical operation

B.a medical needle

C.a medical technique

D.a medical machine 22.Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture? A.He knows where to place the needles without pain.B.He knows where the operation is to be performed.C.He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.He knows how to use the needles in an operation.23.To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person________________.A.several months

B.a couple of weeks

C.a little time

D.almost one month 24.It can be learned from the passage that______________.A.the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needles B.an operation now needs fewer needles than in the past C.acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 years D.few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals 25.Which is implied but not stated in the passage' s A.The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B.The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C.The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D.Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.Passage Three Nowadays more and more foreign enterprises and companies are no longer relying on interviews for recruitment(招聘).Years of studying interviewing have made clear that it is not a very objective process.Personnel officers often hire the person they like most, or even the one they think most physically attractive.Looking good is no guarantee of doing the job well, however.Uglies or those who are aesthetically challenged, lose heart.To get a more objective view, many companies are also using psychological tests to hire both for relatively routine jobs and for positions at senior levels of management.It is impossible to say how many employers use tests, but estimates of test sales in the UK for 1993 were over 1 million.The basic reason employers use tests is clear: tests claim to be scientific and objective.A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection.People's judgment is often very subjective;whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else.But reliable and valid tests can offer rapid and more objective information about would-be employee.If a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate, an employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a game-like test.You can spend just a little time in answering questions of that kind of test, and you deny the answers and say they are not accurate.But you can not go to a serious test without enough preparation since you cannot afford to be denied and eliminated again and again.26.In the past, who would be sure to be recruited after an interview? A)The person who was well educated.B)The person who had great abilities.C)The person who was physically attractive.D)The person who was appreciated by personnel officer in a certain aspect.27.According to the passage, “those who are aesthetically challenged”refer to those who are____________.A)good-looking

B)guarantee of doing the job well C)not attractive judging from appearance

D)given the job of interviewing the candidates 28.Many companies use psychological tests___________.A)to take the place of interviews

B)just to select common clerks C)to make the recruitment more difficult for candidates D)to get really reliable and fair information about candidates 29.“That kind of test” in the last paragraph refers to____________.A)an interview B)a serious test

C)a game-like test D)an objective test 30.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A)For a certain time, psychological tests and interviews will exist together.B)Psychological tests have been recognized valuable more and more.C)The employer will surely hire a person who does well in the interview but poorly in the psychological tests.D)People seldom attend a serious test without enough preparation unless they are confident of it.Passage Four 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 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, he will say a few words of

explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.31.“The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m...” Here “attached“ means______ A.Taken

B.Drawn

C.Given

D.shown 32.Supposing one wants to make a telephone call at dawn, this would mean________.A.the matter is important

B.the matter is somewhat important C.the matter requires immediate attention

D.it is a matter of life and death 33.According to this passage, time plays an important role in _________.A.everyday life

B.school life

C.Communications

D.private life 34.The best title for this passage is_________.A.The Voices of Time

B.The Importance of Time C.The Importance of an Announcement

D.Time and Tide Wait for No Man 35.According to the passage, the author of the article may agree to which of the following statements? A.It is appropriate to send your invitation cards three or four days before a dinner party date in U.S.A.B.It may be appropriate to send your invitation to your guests three or four days before a dinner party date in some cultures.C.It is best for one to make telephone calls at night because it costs much less.D.If one is less than 5 minutes late, he has to make a short apology.Part III Vocabulary and Structure(20 points)Directions：There are 40 incomplete sentences in this section．For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A，B，C and D.Choose the one that best completes the sentence．Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center．
