Part III. Reading Comprehension (40 points; 55 minutes)

Section 1

Directions: Each of the following three passages is followed by some questions. For each question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to each

question. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage One

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage.

For the past twenty years, poll-takers (民意测验者) have told us that the vast majority of Americans report that they are ―satisfied‖ or ―very satisfied‖ with their jobs. But, when the surveys pose a slightly different question—―If you had to do it over, would you choose the same line of work?‖—sixty percent of working Americans say they would choose another occupation. This seems to tell us that Americans feel that they are supposed to like their jobs but, in reality, they don‘t. Most of us are stuck in jobs we‘d prefer not to have. And some of us actually hat e what we do.

How does this happen in a land where citizens are presumably free to do, and become, anything they want? First of all, some of us didn‘t deliberately choose our jobs but simply fell into them. Later, there was never time to find out what we really wanted to do.

Another reason people dislike their jobs is the result of a change in the American economy. A hundred years ago most Americans worked for themselves on farms or in small stores and workshops. Now, less than 10 percent of us are self-employed. Many of us work as cogs (轮牙) in the wheels of giant corporations. We don‘t make a finished product with our own hands, and we feel that we are totally replaceable parts in the machine. Social scientists say that the happiest workers are the ones who are their own bosses—business owners, executives, and professionals. Working for a big company often results in a sense of powerlessness and malaise. Finally, being a member of the baby boom generation increases the chances of job dissatisfaction. In the struggle for careers among the members of this large population ―bulge‖, many people are losing out in the competition. These individuals may never achieve the standard of living their parents achieved, or go as far up the success ladder as they had ho ped. The result is bitterness, and a feeling of being trapped in a ―nowhere‖ job.

41. The best title for this selection is __________.

A. Job Satisfaction

B. Why People Hate Their Jobs

C. Nowhere Jobs

D. A Change in the Workplace

42. Which sentence best expresses the main idea of the selection? __________.

A. Job burnout is a growing problem

B. Large companies provide many benefits for workers

C. Workers are unhappy because they no longer work with their hands

D. There are several reasons why workers are unhappy with their jobs

43. According to the passage, the majority of Americans __________.

A. would choose another occupation if they could begin again

B. are self-employed

C. feel that they are supposed to dislike their jobs

D. work in factories

44. The author implies that __________.

A. job dissatisfaction is a sign of laziness

B. the baby-boomers despise their parents

C. polls can be misleading

D. working for a corporation is very satisfying

45. The word ―malaise‖ (Line7, Para. 3) means __________.

A. depression

B. fulfillment

C. contentment

D. significance

Passage Two

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.

Most forest fires are caused by human carelessness or ignorance. Forest fire prevention, therefore, is mainly a problem of creating better understanding of the importance of forests, an awareness of the danger of fire in the woods, and a sense of personal responsibility to safeguard the forests from danger. This is not an easy job.

Careless smokers are responsible for thousands of forest fires each year. Many of these are started when cigarette butts (烟蒂) and matches are thrown from automobiles. Others are caused by hunters, hikers (徒步旅行者), fishermen, or woods workers who are careless in disposing of their smoking materials. The Forest Service has posted rules in many of the National Forests that prohibit smoking except in certain designated areas. Many of the states have laws against throwing lighted materials from automobiles. The prevention of smoker-caused fires, however, depends upon changing the attitudes and behavior of millions of people who smoke in hazardous areas.

The most important natural cause of fire is lightning (闪电). This accounts for 11 percent of forest fires on protected land for the entire nation. In the Western States, lightning causes a much higher percentage of fires than it does in the East.

Advances in knowledge of fire weather are helping forest protection forces to know when to be alert to lightning-caused fires. Adequate and well-equipped forces can control them quickly and hold the damage to a minimum. Experiments in ―seeding‖ thunder clouds to prevent or control the lightning itself have been in process for many years, but new breakthroughs are needed for any significant reduction in the fires lightning starts.

46. This passage is chiefly about __________.

A. smoking in forests

B. changing the attitudes and behavior of millions of people

C. the chief causes of forest fires and their prevention

D. advances in knowledge of fire weather

47. Preventing smoker-caused forest fires is mainly a problem of __________.

A. building the proper knowledge and habits in human beings

B. safeguarding the forests from fire

C. posting rules in forests

D. holding the damage to a minimum

48. Lightning-caused fires can be controlled quickly by __________.

A. holding the fire damage to a minimum

B. people who have changed their attitudes and behavior

C. enough fire fighters with good fire-fighting devices

D. carrying out experiments in ―seeding‖ thunder clouds

49. ―Alert to‖ (Line 2, Para. 4) most probably means __________.

A. aware of

B. watchful for

C. responsible for

D. busy with

50. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage? __________.

A. It is difficult to prevent forest fires

B. Smoking is allowed only in certain forests

C. 11% of the forest fires in the Western States are caused by lightning

D. Experiments in ―seeding‖ thunder clouds have helped reduce lightning-caused

forest fires

Passage Three

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

Some years ago industries had more freedom than they have now, and they did not need to be as careful as they must today. They did not need to worry a lot about the safety of the new products that they developed. They did not have to pay much attention to the health and safety of the people who worked for them. Often new products were dangerous for the people who used them;often conditions in the work place had very bad effects on the health of the workers.

Of course sometimes there were real disasters(灾难) which attracted the attention of governments and which showed the need for changes.Also scientists who were doing research into the health of workers sometimes produced information which governments could not ignore.At such times, there were inquiries into the causes of the disasters or the problems. New safety rules were often introduced as a result of these inquiries;however, the new rules came too late to protect the people who died or who became seriously ill.

Today many governments have special departments which protect customers and workers. In the U. S., for example, there is a department which tests new airplanes and gives warnings about possible problems. It also makes the rules that aircraft producers must follow. Another department controls the foods and drugs that companies sell.A third department looks at the places where people work,and then reports any companies that are breaking the laws which protect the health and safety of workers. Of course,new government departments and new laws cannot prevent every accident or illness,but they are having some good results. Our work places are safer and cleaner than before. The planes and cars which we use for travel are better. Producers are thinking more about the safety and health of the people who buy and use their products.

51.The main topic of the passage is _________.

A. conditions in the work place

B. the freedom of industries in the past

C. changes in industrial production

D. the safety and health of workers and

customers

52. It can be inferred from the passage that in the past _________.

A. workers often got ill because of the poor working conditions

B. companies were free to put out any products they wanted to

C. many people were killed by dangerous products

D. industries were as careful in management as they are today

53. It is implied in the passage that _________.

A. governments and companies had different opinions about the safety of products

B. governments paid little attention to the safety of products

C. government officials often did not listen to scientists

D. in the past no safety laws were introduced by governments

54. Some years ago safety rules _________.

A. were put forward due to scientists‘ recommendations

B. came into being as a result of the workers‘ demands

C. were introduced because quite a number of people were killed or seriously

injured

D. were effective enough to protect workers and customers

55. The special departments protect customers and workers in many ways EXCEPT

Section 2

Directions: Read the following passage, and then decide whether the statements are true (A) or false (B). Then blacken the corresponding letter(A or B)on

the Answer Sheet. (对的在答题卡上涂A, 错的在答题卡上涂B) Passage Four

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

When someone who is in good health dies suddenly, there is usually an inquest.

An inquest is a kind of court inquiry. The person in charge of an inquest is called a coroner (验尸官). His job is to find out exactly how a person died.

If there is nothing suspicious (怀疑的) about the death, he would decide that the person died from natural causes or an accident. If, however, he is suspicious, he may decide that the person‘s death was caused by a person or persons unknown.

At one inquest, the coroner was trying to find out exactly what had caused the death of a local businessman, Henry Smith.

The man‘s widow was offering the evidence. She was very upset and had to stop from time to time.

The coroner did not want to upset her more than necessary, but he had to find out the truth. There were questions he had to ask her.

―Mrs. Smith, I know this is too much for you,‖ he said, ―but I want you to think very carefully and then answer my questions.‖

―You and your husband were having dinner at home. Is that correct?‖

―Yes.‖

―Suddenly he fell to the floor.‖

―Yes.‖

―Did he say anything?‖

The widow lowered her head.

―Please, Mrs. Smith, you must answer the question. What were his last words?‖

The widow took a dee p breath and then spoke. ―He said,‖ she whispered, ―I‘m not surprised you were charged only 50 cents for that seafood we had for dinner.‖

( ) 56. An inquest is done in one‘s home.

( ) 57. The coroner decides on the nature of a person‘s death.

( ) 58. The coroner was very careful in asking Mrs. Smith questions so as not to upset her.

( ) 59. Mrs. Smith was quick to tell the truth.

( ) 60. The bad seafood was responsible for Mr. Smith‘s death.

Part IV. Short Answer Questions (10 points; 15 minutes)

Directions:In this part there is a short Array passage with five questions or incomplete

statements. Read the passage carefully. Then

answer the questions or complete the

statements in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words) . Write your

answers on the Answer Sheet of Paper Two. (请将此部分的答案写在试卷二的答

题纸上)

Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.

All of us communicate with one another nonverbally as well as with words. Most of the time we‘re not aware that we‘re doing it. We gesture with eyebrows or hands, meet someone else‘s eyes and look away, or change positions in a chair. These actions we assume are occasional. However in recent years researchers have discovered that there is a system to them almost as consistent and understandable as language.

One important kind of body language is eye behavior. Americans are careful

abo ut how and when they meet one another‘s eyes. In our normal conversation, each

eye contact lasts only about a second before one or both of us look away. When two Americans look searchingly into each other‘s eyes, they become more intimate. Therefore, we carefully avoid this, except in suitable situations.

Researchers who are engaged in the study of communication through body

movement are not prepared to spell out a precise vocabulary of gestures. When an

American rubs his nose, it may mean he is disagreeing with someone or refusing

something. But there are other possible interpretations, too. Another example: when a student in conversation with a professor holds the older man‘s eyes a little longer than usual it can be a sign of respect, it can be a challeng e to the professor‘s authority, or it can be something else entirely. The researchers look for patterns in the situation, not for a separate meaningful gesture.

Communication between human beings would be just dull if it were all done with

words.

61. How can people communicate with each other besides language?

_________________________________________________________________ 62.Like language, gesture is

___________________________________________________.

63.According to the second paragraph, an American will feel uncomfortable if

someone

mean?

Directions: Read the passage through. Then, go back and choose one suitable word or phrase marked A, B, C, or D for each blank in the passage. Blacken

the corresponding letter of the word or phrase you have chosen on the

Answer Sheet.

Cars are an important 21 of life in the United States. 22 most people feel that they are poor. And 23 if a person is poor he doesn't feel really poor 24 he has a car.

There are three main reasons the car became so 25 in the United States. 26 of all, the country is a huge one and Americans like to move 27 in it. The car provides the most comfortable and 28 form of transportation. 29 a car people can go any place without spending a lot of money.

The second reason cars are popular is the fact 30 the United States never developed 31 and inexpensive form of public 32 . Long-distance trains have never been 33 common in the United States as they are in other parts of the world. Nowadays there is a good system of air-service 34 planes.

Part III Reading Comprehension (Skimming and Scanning)(40 points; 55 minutes)

Section 1

Directions: Each of the following passages is followed with five questions. For each question there are four choices. Choose the best answer to each

question. Then blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:

All the housewives who went to the new supermarket had one great ambition: to be the lucky customer who did not have to pay for her shopping. For this was what the notice just inside the entrance promised. It said: ―Remember, once a week, one of our customers gets free goods. This May Be Your Lucky Day!‖

For several weeks Mrs. Edwards hoped, like many of her friends, to be the lucky customer. Unlike her friends, she never gave up hoping. The cupboards in kitchen

were full of things which she did not need. Her husband tried to advise her against buying things but failed. She dreamed of the day when the manager of the supermarket would approach her and say: ―Madam, this is Your Lucky Day. Everything in your basket is free.‖ One Friday morning, after she had finished her shopping and had taken it to her car, she found that she had forgotten to buy any tea. She went back to the supermarket, got the tea and went towards the cash-desk. As she did so, she saw the manager of the supermarket approach her. ―Madam,‖ he said, holding out his hand, ―I want to congratulate you! You are our lucky customer and ever ything you have in your basket is free!‖

41. The housewives learnt about the free goods _______.

A. on TV

B. from the manager

C. at the supermarket

D. from the newspaper

42. Mrs. Edwards ________.

A. was always very lucky

B. had no friends

C. hoped to get free shopping

D. got disappointed easily

43. Mrs. Edwards‘s husband tried to ________.

D. keep her from buying things

44. Mrs. Edwards went back to the supermarket quickly because she had to ______.

A. buy another thing

B. talk to the manager

C. pay for her shopping

D. find her shopping

45. Mrs. Edwards must have been ________.

A. pleased

B. delighted

C. proud

D. disappointed Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:

A third of British people are overweight, states a report published in January by the Royal College of Physicians, the result of an 18-month-long study. About 5%of children weigh too much, and are likely to stay that way for life; in the mid-twenties age group the proportion of fat people rises to a third, and of the middle-age population half are overweight.

Fat people risk severe health problems, says the report, including high blood pressure, breathlessness, and various forms of heart disease. Smoking is particularly risky for overweight people.

The safest way to lose weight is to eat cereals, bread, fruit and vegetables, and cut down on fatty meats, butter and sweet foods. Current diets do far more harm than good; slimming machines that vibrate muscles have not been proved useful; saunas (蒸气浴) merely remove a little body water, and health farms, says the report, serve as expensive holidays.

The report emphasizes that exercise is most important to health. Though it doesn‘t necessarily reduce weight, it maintains the correct proportion of body fat to body muscle. And it isn‘t only for the young. From middle age a minimum of 20 minutes of gentle physical jerks should be practiced three times a week.

The report advocates several public health measures to combat the high prevalence of overweight in this country. They include an increase of tax on alcohol to

reduce its increasing, and dangerously fattening consumption; and the provision of more sports facilities by local authorities. Britain‘s doctors, the report concludes, must learn to be more sympathetic and specific in their advice to the overweight, encouraging a change in eating habits on a long-term basis, and taking into account the many—often complex—reasons why fat people are fat.

46. The passage is mainly about______.

A. why many British people are overweight

B. how to avoid getting overweight

C. British people‘ s overweight problem

D. the relations between overweight and health

47. According to the report,a person is most likely to stay fat for the whole of his life

if he______.

A. gets fat in middle age

B. gets fat in his twenties

C. gets fat when he is a child

D. is born fat

48. The report thinks that exercise________.

A. is a way to reduce weight C. can convert fat to muscle

B. is a sure way to keep one healthy D. sometimes increases weight

49. The report points out that drinking too much alcohol________.

A. will also cause a person to get overweight

B. will cause a person to do less sports

C. will make a person forget the fact that he is fat

D. will lead a person to bad eating habits

50. The report suggests that when treating the overweight, doctors should______.

A. encourage a long-term diet for everyone

B. first consider why so many people are overweight

C. know that there are complex reasons why a person gets overweight

D. be more considerate and give detailed advice

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:

A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on the resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.

If an economist were asked which of the three groups borrow most—people with rising incomes, stable incomes or declining incomes—he would probably answer those with declining incomes. Actually, in the years 1947-1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions about earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will hasten to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying.

The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America. Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were more

But there have been times when snow has looked red, green, yellow, or black. There have been snowflakes of almost every color.

2013湖南学位英语仿真模拟试题 试题(一) Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. What exactly is a lie? Is it anything we say which we know is untrue? Or is it something more than that? For example, suppose a friend wants to borrow some money from you. You say “I wish I could help you but I’m short of money myself.” In fact, you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debt and y ou don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. Is this rally a lie? Professor Jerald Jellison of the University of Southern California has made a scientific study of lying. (76)According to him, women are better liars than men, particularly w hen telling a “white lie”, such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really thinks it looks awful. However, this is only one side of the story. Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies, such as making a promise which they have no intension of fulfilling. This is the kind of lie politicians and businessmen are supposed to be particularly skilled at: the lie from which the liar hopes to profit or gain in some way. Research has also be en done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. It has been found that if they are sitting down at the time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual. T o the trained observer th ey are saying “I wish I were somewhere else now.” They also tend to touch certain parts of the face more often, in particular the nose. One explanation of this may be that lying causes a slight increase in blood pressure. The tip of the nose is very sensitive to such changes and the increased pressures make it itch. Another gesture which gives liars away is what the writer Desmond Morris in his book Manwatching calls “the mouth cover”.(77)He says there are several typical forms of this, such as covering part of the mouth with the fingers, touching the upper-lip or putting a finger of the hand at one side of the mouth.
