II. Cloze (1 point for each, altogether 10 points)

Directions: Decide which of the choices given below would best complete the passage if inserted in the corresponding blanks. Write your answers on the answer sheet.

Families have always been changing. For example, once the family was the world. In 31 words，at one time everything a person did took place within the family. The family was the child's only school. The family was the only means to settle a dispute. Nowadays，the family is still the "world" in some cultures. But in many cultures，these 32 functions of the family have largely been 33 by other institutions，such as schools，churches，and governments.

In the 34 ，families changed in other ways，some scientists believe that when people obtained food by hunting animals and gathering roots and plants，the family had to be small

35 move around, and when they settled down to 36 to obtain food，they found that they needed more 37 to do the work. Then the new family developed in some cultures. Now 38 to their children，people lived together with their parents and even grandparents.

How are families changing today The number of nuclear families（核心家庭）seems to be increasing everywhere in the world，while that of extended families is 39 . One reason for this seems to be that in many cultures today people are leaving farms and villages to find jobs in the city. Extended families are hard to maintain when people have to be free to move in order to find 40 .

III. Reading Comprehension. (2 points for each, altogether 30 points)

Directions: There are three passages followed by questions. Beneath each question there are four choices respectively marked by letters A, B, C and D. Choose the right answer for each question. Write your answers on the answer sheet.

Passage 1

Intelligent young people want to go to university, and it is logical for a country to provide university places for them to ensure that there will be good-trained men and women to run the government and industry in the future. So in the 1960s the government set up a number of new universities in Britain to provide everyone with sufficient opportunity to study. But now something has gone wrong. There is still fierce competition to go to university to study arts and other subjects, but many places for scientists are not taken up.

The new universities concentrated on science because it seemed practical. They developed new courses so as not to imitate traditional university education. Why have their calculations proved wrong One reason is that a lot of young people can get enough qualifications to work in industry by going to technical school. They think university courses are too long and too theoretical. But this does not explain why the majority of students still prefer arts subjects to science subjects.

41．What is "logical" according to the first paragraph_______.

[A] Intelligent young people want to go to university.

[B] The government should set up universities to train young people for the country.

[C] People who run the country should be well-trained.

[D] University is the place to train young men and women.

42．What makes the new universities different from the traditional ones_______.

[A] There are more science subjects in them.

[B] There are more arts students in them.

[C] Their curriculum is more scientifically planned.

[D] They are equipped with more modern facilities.

43．What does "their calculations"(par.2)refer to _______.

[A] Their plan to defeat the traditional university education.

[B] Their calculations of how many students study science and how many students study arts.

[C] Their thought that science is practical.

[D] Their assumption that people are willing to study the practical science subjects in the university.

44．Which of the following shows the advantage of technical schools over universities correctly_______.

[A] They have more qualified teachers.

[B] They have more qualified courses.

[C] The students can be qualified to work within a short time.

[D] If the students get qualification in technical schools, they are more well-received by industry.

45．Why does the majority of the students prefer to study arts in university_______.

[A] The reason is not clear.

[B] The science courses in university are too theoretical.

[C] Arts sound nobler than science.

[D] The curriculum of science course is not well-arranged.

Passage 2

Most Europeans want small cars. Many Americans prefer large cars. As a result, European auto-makers produce a wide variety of economical, lightweight cars while American auto-makers tend to build bigger, heavier cars.

The price of gasoline has much to do with this. Gasoline is expensive in Europe, so

Europeans naturally prefer cars that will go a long way on a small amount of fuel.

Other reasons also enter into the big or little car decision. Many Old World cities have very narrow, winding streets. In these cities a small car is more practical and easier to handle than a large one.

Some Americans like powerful engines in their cars. They enjoy having roomy cars that are comfortable for large families and long trips. They are prepared to pay higher operating costs to get these advantages.

Other Americans, however, have learned to like small,nimble cars. Many visitors to Europe during and after WWⅡ discovered that small cars were fun to drive and easy to park in small spaces. They were delighted to learn how far small cars could go on a few gallons of gasoline.

In the 1950s，many Americans began buying European cars. In 1953, for the first time, the United States imported more cars than it exported. The best seller among these imported cars was an odd-looking but dependable small car from Germany. Americans promptly nicknamed it "the bug".

Today, American car buyers have a wide choice. There are big cars for people who want elbow room, comfort and power. And there are small cars, mostly imported but some American-made, for people who want easy parking and economical operation. 46．Implied but not stated:_______.

[A] All Americans buy European cars.

[B] No one wants to drive a powerful car.

[C] Small cars are not expensive to run.

[D] Americans don't like roomy cars.

47．What does the word "nimble" mean_______.

[A] cheap

[B] beautiful

[C] swift

[D] foreign

48．On the whole, the article tells about_______.

[A] parking cars in America

[B] the price of gasoline

[C] the price of roomy cars

[D] big cars and small cars

49．Why do some people want to purchase big cars _______.

[A] They want to have elbow room, comfort and power.

[B] It is easier to park big cars.

[C] They need to make long-distance journey.

[D] Big cars cost less than small cars.

50．Which statement seems true according to the article_______.

[A] Americans are not accustomed to traveling in Europe.

[B] People like to choose cars from many choices.

[C] People like to buy European cars without any specific reason.

[D] No one drives big cars in Old World cities.

Passage 3

The bath was invented before the bath plug. The bath plug could not have been invented before the bath, except as a small object with which to play ice hockey. The order in which inventions are made is very important, much more important than has ever been realized, because we tend automatically to think that later inventions are better than earlier ones. A moment's thought will show this is not so. If, for example, a solution to today's urban traffic problems was proposed in the shape of a small man-powered two-wheeled vehicle which would make the motor car look like a cumbersome （笨重的）over-powered device, a space rocket trying to tackle suburban problems, we would greet it as a great technological breakthrough. “Bicycle makes car obsolete!”We would cry. Unfortunately, the bike came first, so we shall always unconsciously see it as a cruder version of the car. Other things which may have been invented too early are the airship, the radio, the railway train, the cuff-link.

Consider also the zipper. Zippers represent a technological advance on buttons, being faster and more complete. They are also more liable to come adrift, break, jam, stick and catch. Buttons can only go wrong if the thread is faulty. Even then, buttons can be mended by the user, Zips rarely can.

51．If the bicycle were to be invented now, the car would appear_______.

[A] unsuitable for its purpose

[B] in advance of its time

[C] unnecessarily expensive

[D] too far for safety

52．The railway train and the radio are examples of things which_______.

[A] were not fully appreciated at the time of their invention

[B] are more suitable for use now than when they were invented

[C] are neglected in favor of more recent invention

[D] are less suited to their purpose than earlier invention

53．According to the author, buttons are preferable to zippers because they_______.

[A] are more convenient

[B] are more reliable

[C] cost less to replace

[D] are more complete

54．What conclusion can be drawn from the article _______.

[A] Modern technology can't solve our problems.

[B] Everything has two aspects, advantages and disadvantages.

[C] We should change our usual way of thinking about inventions.

[D] Technological innovations do not always mean more benefits

55．What does the word "obsolete" mean_______.

[A] outdated

[B] slow in movement

[C] ridiculous

[D] awkward

范文：College Students’ Job Hunting

In recent years, college students find it increasingly difficult to get a job. It sounds strange since young college students are usually intelligent, well-educated phenomenon, aspirant and eager to bring their talent into full play. Then what underlies the strange phenomenon

There are several reasons for this. To begin with, nowadays college students aim too high. All they want are “good” jobs which could offer good salary, comfortable working conditions, high social status among others. Consequently, most college students are unwilling to accept vacant jobs they consider not “good” enough. Another reason is that there is a big gap between the majors some students study in school and the demands of vacant jobs. So companies think some students are not fit for the jobs.

Solution to the problem requires efforts on both the society and the students. The companies should value the students, talent and knowledge while the latter should not merely aim at material gains. They should be down-to–earth in building up their career. Furthermore, they should face their weak points so as to improve themselves and be more competent.

Passage 1

Centuries ago，man discovered that removing moisture from food helps to preserve it，and that the easiest way to do this is to expose the food to sun and wind. In this way the North American Indians produce dried meat and make it into cakes. The Scandinavians make dried fish and the Arabs make dried dates.

All foods contain water-cabbage and other leaf vegetables contain as much as 93% water，potatoes and other root vegetables 80%，lean meat 75% and fish anything from 80% to 60% depending on how fatty it is. If this water is removed, the activity of the bacteria which causes food to go bad is stopped.

Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically. The most common method of such drying

is to put food in chambers through which 430C exists. This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetable, minced meat and fish. Liquids such as milk，coffee，tea，soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated horizontal steel cylinder or by spraying them into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes. In the first case，the dried material is scraped off the roller as a thin film which is then broken up into small pieces，though still relatively coarse flakes. In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as a fine powder. Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required，as in soup，the ingredients are dried separately and then mixed.

Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen，and they are invaluable to climbers，explorers and soldiers in battle，who have little storage space. They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them. Usually it is just a matter of replacing the dried-out moisture with boiling water.

41. The North American Indians produce dried meat by_______.

[A] putting the food in chambers

[B] pouring the food over a heated steel

[C] exposing the food to sun and wind

[D] replacing the moisture with boiling water

42．How much water do leaf vegetables generally contain _______．

[A] 80%

[B] 60%

[C] 75%

[D] 93%

43. In the third paragraph, the phrase "in the first case" (Line 5) refers to_______.

[A] the case that liquids are sprayed into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes

[B] the case that liquids are poured over a heated horizontal steel cylinder

[C] the case that the liquids are exposed to sun and wind

[D] the case that the liquids are put in chambers through which 430C exists

44. Which of the following is NOT an advantage of dried food_______．

[A] Taking up less room

[B] Tasting better

[C] Weighing less

[D] Taking less time to cook

45．What does the word "invaluable" in the last paragraph mean _______．

[A] "Priceless"

[B] "Worthless"

[C] "Invariable"

[D] "Inviting"

Passage 2

There is much discussion today about whether economic growth is desirable．At an

earlier period ,our desire for material wealth may have been justified．Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems．Even though we have good intentions, we may be producing too much, too fast．

Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down．They believe that society is approaching certain limits on growth．These include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment, and the continuing increase in the world's population．As society reaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease．

People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate, there are still many poor people in the world．They believe that only more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world．This debate, we believe, is of vital importance to business and industry．If those who argue against economic growth are correct, the problems they mention cannot be ignored．To find a solution, economists and the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another．

46．For people who criticize economic growth, we must slow down for the following reasons except that_______．

[A] the world population is ever increasing

[B] the fixed supply of natural resources is close to limit

[C] the harmful effect on environment

[D] the more effective measures we should take to better our life

47．Those who are in favor of economic growth believe that economic growth_______．

[A] will help to control the population explosion.

[B] will provide more opportunities of work for people.

[C] will be of great significance to the advance of society.

[D] will help to protect the natural environment.

48．Which of the following statements is NOT true _______.

[A] The discussion revolves around economic growth．

[B] Man's desire for better life is unreasonable．

[C] Our environment is facing some serious problems．

[D] People are much concerned about the environment．

49．From the passage, we may infer that_______．

[A] the author hopes more people will take part in this debate.

[B] there are many poor people in the world who are in need of help.

[C] some natural resources are running out.

[D] the author, as well as some economists, worries a lot about the problems we face. 50．One of the best titles for this passage might be"_______"．

[A] The Importance of Economic Growth

[B] A Heated Debate

[C] Poor People in the World

[D] Environment VS．Economy

Passage 3

Before the 1930s ,workers were only paid as long as they were "smart"．If they were smart enough not to be ill, they were paid．If they were smart enough not to be injured, they were paid．When people were not this smart, they looked for help．Their families, private charities, and churches did what they could．All of these groups helped when the economy was healthy．

When the Depression hit, families, charities and churches were weakened．And there was more need of them than ever before．One construction worker wrote in his diary : "Went to church, I said the family needed something to keep going．Got a nice sermon．Came home, pocket empty．" His story was told by millions of others．Even when charities did help, people were not completely happy．Their pride went hungry．In 1935, Franklin Roosevelt signed the Social Security Act．The Act provided money for the elderly, the blind, and the handicapped．Workers benefited too．Workers who were ill or injured were to receive money．Families were to receive assistance when working father died．People laid off from work were to be helped until they found new jobs．51．What did the construction worker want to get from church _______.

[A] Work．

[B] Charity．

[C] A sermon．

[D] A prayer．

52．The Social Security Act_______．

[A] mainly helps those who are disabled

[D] helps people with their own money

[A] smarter than today's workers

[B] more religious than today's workers

[C] healthier than today's workers

[D] more miserable than today's workers

54．The word "laid off "in the last sentence means_______．

[A] injured

[B] absent

[C] dismissed

[D] criticized

55．The best title for the passage is_______．

范文On Saving Money

With the development of society and the improvement of people’s life, more and more families have more extra money. Some people tend to save money to put the spare money into banks. Most of them don’t have much money and are afraid of poor life in the future.

However, others feel like using tomorrow’s money today like some young people. They tend to buy their cars or even computers in installments. To them, what counts is the current happiness, but there is a possibility that they might not pay off the debt one day if they lack self-control.

In my opinion, we should use money properly. The key point is that we must make the best use of the money we have and plan for future life.

复习范围：

Outline：

1.……Some people tend to save money to put the spare money into banks.……

2. However, others feel like using tomorrow’s money today like some young people.……

3. In my opinion, we should……

Unit 1 Sample 1 It is believed that pessimism often leads to hopelessness, sickness and failure, while optimism usually brings happiness, good health and success. Pessimists also make those around them very miserable. Therefore, pessimists should change their way of thinking and overcome the negative aspects of their personalities. Here are a few tips for them: 1. Try to smile more often. A smile has great power. It can chase sadness away. It will make you and other people feel happy. And it may even make things easier and better. Smiling in the morning makes a good beginning for the day. A smile is the most important sign of optimism. 2. Build up your self-confidence. Try to discover as many of your personal strengths as you can. Then write them all down. Read them several times when you are getting ready to do something or when you are facing difficulties. Your list will help you see your abilities. 3. Change your way of thinking. Don't always think that things will go wrong or that if they do there will be terrible results. Instead, convince yourself that things will improve and that you can work hard to help improve them. If you fail, think about what you have learned from the failure. If you succeed, praise yourself. Don't be too modest! There is nothing more encouraging than self-praise. Try your best to become an optimist. Sample 2 Are you an optimist or a pessimist? If you're a pessimist, here is some advice for you. As everyone knows, pessimism is harmful to people. It makes you unhappy and unhealthy, and even brings depression, loneliness and failure. Pessimists tend to suffer more failures and setbacks because they don't believe they can succeed and thus don't struggle for it. Optimism, by contrast, can make you happy, healthy and successful. So it is good for you to change yourself from a pessimist to an optimist. Here are some suggestions for you to become an optimist: 1. Remember that everyone experiences failures and disappointments. So when you fail, don't blame yourself too much. It may not be your fault. 2. When you fail in something, profit from the failure as a learning experience instead of getting depressed. And next time, you can make your plans to be more successful. 3. When you fail, don't be discouraged. Try again. Don't let negative thoughts hold you back. Just give yourself another chance. So never give up just because you failed. Pessimism is harmful, but it can be changed. Trust yourself and try to adopt an optimistic attitude, and then you will be a winner in life more often. Unit 3 If I Were the Mayor of This City As the topic of the 2010 Expo --- “Bette r City, Better Life” indicates, the ultimate goal of making a city better is to make its people happier.

Music to Your Gears Andy Ellis 1 尽管音乐能使心中的怒气平息，但是开车时听音乐也会损害你的健康。近期研究表明，听声音很响的音乐会严重地影响司机的注意力，而且心理学家也提醒人们，持续大音量地在车里放这种音乐是很危险的，尤其是处于车流中或是在高速公路上开车时。 2 音乐有两个极端，任何一个极端都有可能带来危险。重金属音乐以其强烈的节奏使人莽撞驾驶，而聆听处于另一个极端的优美而令人舒心的音乐会使司机过分放松，以至于超过安全限度，陷入迷糊状态。 3 英国汽车协会一直关注道路安全，它委托搞了一个项目，研究重大车祸与音乐之间的关系。这项研究发现，17至25年龄段的男性是最危险、最易产生车祸的群体。研究还发现，这个群体的人70％的开车时间都在听音乐。 4 快节奏或重金属音乐要是放得很响，会使人易怒好斗，开起车来冲劲十足。这种司机也就更容易去冒险。开车的速度受到了音乐的速度和节奏的控制。 5 在试验中，那些自愿参加实验的司机说，听了声音很响的音乐，他们说尽管他们不一定感到非要开快车，但的确发现自己换挡更快，加速更快，刹车也更急了若是让这些司机听慢节奏的抒情曲，他们承认自己经常走神。在一次高速公路长途驾驶过程中，至少有两位参加试验的司机发现自己在不知不觉中跨越了车道标志。 6 这些自愿参试的司机（有些刚刚拿到驾驶执照）所发表的意见非常说明问题18岁的西蒙告诉英国汽车协会：“《走出地狱的蝙蝠》里的快节奏摇滚乐有可能让人送命。我发现自己不知不觉地越开越快。” 7 另一名自愿参试的司机一直在听“ZZ顶级”乐队最流行的曲子。他说：“我一直在快速行驶，扯着嗓门唱歌，没有看见也没有听见那辆一直想超过我的消防车。” 8 还有些人说：“我陷入了深思……”，“人的感觉会变得麻木……”，“听不见别的汽车声是个问题”，“我一直在随着音乐的节奏加快速度。” 9 一些慢节奏的背景音乐，如肖邦的音乐，会刺激人的大脑，使思维模式发生变化，激发阿尔法脑波，使人有一种舒服愉快的感觉。处于放松状态在大多数时候对我们有好处，但开车时则不然。心理学家雪利·费希尔教授提醒人们说：“最大的危险是疲倦驾驶。有一些音乐会使你无法集中注意力，甚至陷入轻度睡眠状态，那样就会造成可怕的惨祸。” 10 “问题的关键在于根据具体情况选择合适的音乐。刺激性的音乐适合在漫长、枯燥的道路上听，但是当交通状况糟糕时，或是交通拥挤时，这种音乐会分散你的注意力。” 11 然而，音乐也有其好的一面，正如英国汽车协会的心理学家罗伯特·韦斯特所指出的那样：“如果说有些音乐影响我们安全行驶，那么反过来也是有道理的。精心选择的曲子有助于我们安全行驶，尤其是对高风险的群体而言。例如，要是我们能使年轻的男性驾车者听曼托瓦尼的音乐，他们很可能会把速度放慢。但可悲的是，我自认为没有能力说服他们许多人去这样做。” 12 除了一些音乐会影响行驶安全，我们的车里安装了高技术的音响系统这件事本身也是引起车祸的根源。近期一份有关交通与道路安全的报告表明，小交通事故中，有大约40％是由于人们更换磁带或光盘不看道路所引起的！ 13 无论我们对音乐的品位如何，无论我们的开车风格如何，看来安全行驶的习惯是我们一定要养成的。罗孚汽车公司、英国航空航天局、飞利浦公司及瑞典道路与交通研究所已通力合作生产出了一种汽车智能系统——简称为ARIADNE（实时智能驾驶助理）的精密电子防撞行驶报警装置。它利用雷达技术，一旦面临撞车危险，雷达会使车内的电话响起，警告司机注意。 14 如果汽车与前面的车辆之间的距离超出了安全刹车的范围，ARIADNE会通过加速器踏板发出震动以提醒司机放慢速度。随着两车之间的距离不断缩小，这种震荡会越来越强烈。要是司机

新编大学英语第二版第三册 第三单元课文翻译 编著：浙江大学 出版社：外语教学与研究出版社 挂钥匙的孩子——笃、笃，家里有人吗？ 在过去的几十年中，美国的生活费用一直在持续增长。食品价格。服装费用、房子开销和学费都越来越高。母亲们纷纷放弃传统的全职家庭主妇的角色，这一部分是由于经济需要，一部分是想通过工作取得成就感。她们越来越多地从事家庭以外的有薪水的工作。 如此重大的角色转换影响着整个家庭，尤其是孩子们。某些后果是非常明显的。例如，晚饭时间推迟了。而另一方面，这种转变对情感的影响就更微妙了。母亲们早上带着愧疚感离开家，因为孩子放学回来时她们会不在家。她们压抑着愧疚心理，因为她们相信她们的工作从长远来讲对大家有益。她们的收入将能够使家庭存下钱来供孩子上大学。度一次长假、买辆新车，等等。 孩子们在情感上所受到的影响是很大的。通常，孩子会感到受伤和愤怒。毕竟，他们一个人呆几个小时，他们感到他们的母亲应该“在那儿”等着他们。他们可能需要有人帮他们完成作业，或者想把一天的活动说给母亲听。然而，母亲们通常筋疲力尽地回到家，又要面临一个紧迫的任务——准备晚饭。她们的首要任务是给全家人做晚饭，而不是轻松的聊天。 挂钥匙的孩子年龄从六岁到十三岁不等。每天，他们放学回家，用挂在脖子上的钥匙打开门，独自一人，孤孤单单地呆在安静而空荡荡的屋子里。对某些孩子来说，这段个人时间是很有所作为的，而对于另外一些孩子，却是令人害怕的孤单的空虚。由于安全原因，很多父母不允许孩子出去玩，或带客人到家里来。因此，孩子们感到一种被隔离的感觉。 被采访的挂钥匙的孩子们反应不同。一些孩子说，每天自己呆上几个小时培
