III、Reading Comprehension（30 points，2 points for each item）从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。

Passage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

talks more，women or men? The seemingly conflicting evidence is resolved by the difference between what I call public and private speaking. More men feel comfortable doing “public speaking,” while more women feel comfortable doing “private” speaking. A nother way of capturing these differences is by using the terms reporter-talk.

For most women，the language of conversation is primarily a language of rapport: a way of establishing connections and negotiating relationships. Emphasis is placed on displaying similarities and matching experiences. From childhood, girls criticize their friends who try to stand out or appear better than others. People feel their closest connections at home, or in places where they feel at home—with one or a few people they feel close to and comfortable with---in other words, during private speaking. But even the most public situations can be approached like private speaking.

For most men, talk is primarily a means to preserve independence and negotiate and maintain status in a hierarchical（等级制度的）social order. This is done by exhibiting knowledge and skill，and by holding center stage through verbal performance such as story-telling, joking，or conveying information. From childhood，men learn to use talking as a way to get and keep attention. Therefore，they are more comfortable speaking in larger groups made up of people they know less well，in the broadest sense, “public speaking”. But even the most private situations can be approached like public speaking, more like giving a report than establishing rapport.

21. A similar term for “private talking” is ______.

A. report-talk

B. rapport-talk

C. persuasive-talk

D. women?s talk

22. When women talk, they tend to ______.

A. admire their friends who stand out

B. make others feel at home

C. approach public situations like private talking

D. seek close relationship with other speakers

23. Men talk in order to ______.

A. make new friends

B. share experience

C. argue with others D .attract attention

24. The purpose of this passage is to ______.

A. contrast the male and female talking styles

B. prove that men talk more effectively than women

C. analyze why men and women are different

D. draw people…s attention to the difference between men and women

25.Which of the following is true？

A. Men talk more than women.

B. Men feel more comfortable making a public speech than women.

C. Men are more knowledgeable than women.

D. Men are more independent than women.

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

The best example of how associations influence eating is t hat we often eat not because we?re hungry but because it?s “lunchtime,” because foods smell good, or because our friends are eating.

More evidence that associations influence eating comes from marketing and advertising pressures to sell foods by offering huge servings. For example，movie theatre offer an extra large box of popcorn（爆玉米花），which，at almost 900 calories，is equivalent to a major meal. Health professionals warn that as children, adolescents（青少年）, and adults learn to prefer large portions and tasty foods high in fat，sugar，and calories，there has been a corresponding increase in rates of being over weight（from 25％in 1988 to 34％in 1998）. Researchers are especially concerned about the continued rates of overweight and obesity（肥胖）in children since childhood obesity very difficult to treat and an obese child has a high probability of becoming an obese adult with the associated health risks we discussed earlier.

Health professionals suggest that to avoid future increases in rates of overweight and obesity, we need to try hard to forget many of our food associations, which primarily involve decreasing size of food portions，increasing levels of activity to burn off excess calories.

26. The influence of food association can be seen clearly from the example that we often eat NOT because ______.

A. it…s time for lunch

B. we?re hungry

C. foods smell delicious

D. our friends are eating

27.From the passage we can infer that t he “serving” in the second para graph most probably means ______.

A. an amount of food

B. a special service

C. a meal

D. some calories

28.According to the author, because of an unhealthy food preference，the increase in rates of being overweight was almost ______ during the ten years from 1988 to 1998.

A.10 per cent

B.20 per cent

C.30 per cent

D.40 per cent

29.According to the passage，an obese child is .

A. less at risk of heart diseases

B. healthily fat

C. very hard to get along with

D. more likely to become an obese adult

30.In order to avoid future increases in rates of overweight and obesity，we need to do all the following EXCEPT ______.

A. make an effort to forget our food association

B. eat less high-fat food

C. do more exercise to consume excess calories

D. eat less food

Passage Three

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage

Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn income. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment，so it includes employers and the self-employ ed. Labor is one of the country?s resources which can be combined with other resources to produce the goods and services wanted by the community.

Although the size of the workforce depends a great deal on the size of the total population，there are several other influences which also affect it. The age distribution of the total population has a very marked effect on the available workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work，then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution. If the population naturally grows rapidly，i.e. the

number of births greatly exceeds the number of deaths, then as a total population increases proportion of the work-force declines.

Sometimes a population is described as aging which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are insufficient numbers of young people entering it to replace those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy（头重脚轻）with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid increase in births or a falling birth rate.

The age distribution of the population has several important effects on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce，this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retired group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes，finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population，then the government tax revenue is relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or the workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.

31. Labor force is referred to as ______.

A. people who are available to work and earn income

B. self-employed people only

C. only those who are looking for an employment

D. only the employers

32.According to the passage, which of the following factors is NOT mentioned as an influence on the workforce？

A. The size of the population.

B. The age distribution of the population.

C. The national economy.

D. The number of births and deaths.

33.The conclusion which can be drawn safely from the second paragraph is that ______.

A. a population growth from natural increase leads to a greater proportion of the workforce

B. a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforce

C. the larger the number of the aged in a population，the higher the proportion of the workforce

D. if the population has an evenly spread age distribution，the workforce will be lower

34.When a population is said to be aging, ______.

A. there are more people retiring than those entering the workforce

B. the birth rate must be growing

C. there should be an oversupply of workforce

D. young people outnumber old people

35. The population which is top-heavy with older people exerts pressure on ______.

A. the employers

B. the self-employers

C. the young people

D. the economy of the country

In addition to the need for food，man also has need for some kind of protection from heat and cold, and from wind and rain. The first homes of man were very simple.

In some places，man?s home would be nothing more than a cave in the side of a hill, with a fire at the entrance to give light and warmth and to keep dangerous wild animals away.

Think again. Leasing can end up being just as expensive as buying. Most people think about leasing because they believe it will cost them less money. They're right-it is cheaper, but only in the short term. For example, if you were to lease anew Subaru Forester, you might pay $300 per month for the car. If you were to buy the same car, you would pay about $400 per month. Over a three-year, you would save $3600-a big savings. But after your lease is over, you have to give the car back. Many people want to lease because they can drive a more expensive car than they might otherwise be able to afford. For example, if you spend $300 monthly on a car, you might be able to lease a new Ford Explorer. For the same price, you might have to buy a used Explorer, or buy a new but much less expensive model. A lease，therefore，allows you to drive the latest models of more expensive cars. However, whatever car you can afford to buy you get to keep it, and it will always have a resell or trade-in(以新旧换)value if you want to upgrade to a new car later. Furthermore, people who lease cars are often shocked by how much they must pay when the lease is over . Most leases limit you to a certain number of miles. If you go over that, you must pay for each mile. As a result, you may end up paying thousands of dollars in mileage(里程) fees. In addition, when you lease ,you have to pay for regular maintenance and repairs to the vehicle. Since you must return the car finally, you are paying to repair someone else's car.

2013年10月真题解析 2013年10月高等教育自学考试 全国统一命题考试 英语（二）试卷真题解析 （课程代码00015） 本试卷分为选择题和非选择题两部分，满分100分，考试时间150分钟。 第一部分为选择题。考生必须在“答题卡”上按要求填涂作答。 第二部分为非选择题。 第一部分选择题 一、阅读判断（第1—10题，共10分） 短文后列出10个句子，根据短文内容判断每个句子。A是正确，B是错误，C是文中未提及。 Farms Appear in Cities When you h ear the word “farm”, you may imagine the countryside with cows and crops. But scientists say the farms of the future could be built in tall buildings in some large cities. It may be difficult to believe, but in fact, the technology for growing crops in doors already exists. Farming in the city is already happening. Some vegetables are already grown in greenhouses. Even the scientists at the South Pole research station can enjoy fresh vegetables they grow in their own greenhouse. Experts say indoor farming solves many problems. First, traditional farming takes up a lot of land. Growing crops in tall buildings — called vertical farming（垂直农业）— can solve the problem. Also, fruits and vegetables grown indoors would not face serious threats from insects and weather. Though vertical farms don’t exist yet, experts have created a plan for recycling in such farms. The water from indoor fish ponds would be used to water crops. Gases from crop waste would be used to heat the building. Waste from chicken or pigs would be reused as a source of energy. But experts believe vertical farming is not going to be easy. They say it can be difficult to control climate conditions indoors. Besides, Plants differ in their weather and lighting needs. For example, some plants like warm, sunny weather, but other plants prefer cooler temperatures. That’s not to say these difficulties won’t be overcome —but it will take time. Most experts suggest it may take about 5 to 15 years before the first vertical farms could be created. 【参考译文】 农场出现在城市里（城中农场） 当听到“农场”一词，你可能联想到乡下的母牛和庄稼等等。但科学家说，未来的农场可能会建在一些大城市的高楼里。 此事可能难以置信，可是事实上，在室内种庄稼已经存在了。城市里的农场已经出现，某些蔬菜已经在温室里生长。甚至在南极科考站，科学家们能享用他们在温室里自己栽种的新鲜蔬菜。 据专家们说室内农场可以解决许多问题。首先，传统农场占据大片土地。在高楼里种庄稼（称之为垂直农业）可以解决此问题。再者说，水果和蔬菜室内种植不会受到害虫和气候的威胁。 尽管垂直农场尚未成为现实，但是专家们已经在一些农场创建了再循环计划：把室内养鱼池的水用于浇灌农作物，把来自于农作物的废气用于建筑物的供热，来自于鸡和猪的粪便重新利用作为能源。 但是专家认为垂直农业并不是一件容易的事。他们说，控制室内气候环境是困难的。除此之外，植物对气候和光照需求有差异。例如，一些植物喜好温暖、阳光普照的气候，但另一些植物更喜欢较凉爽的温度。 并不是说这些困难不能克服——但是这将需要花时间。大多数专家指出，建立起第一个垂直农场可能需要五年到十五年的时间。 word “farm” may m ake you think of the countryside.
