(A)

The day of my holiday arrived,but I wasn’t looking forward to it.I had little money and had only been able to afford to stay with my Aunt Rosa in Spain.So,I wasn’t really excited as I knew exactly what it was going to be like:lots of noisy cousins,and Aunt Rosa begging me to take her for a ride.

After I had checked in,I made my way slowly to the departure gate.As I was waiting to board the plane,I kept thinking about my ideal holiday destination:Jamaica,with its long,sandy beaches and crystal clear water.

As soon as the plane took off,I fell fast asleep and only woke to the sound of the announcement:“Ladies and gentlemen,please fasten you seat belts,as we will shortly be landing in Kingston.”I froze in my seat.Was I dreaming?Kingston?Jamaica?I had boarded the wrong

plane!

Immediately after the plane landed,I explained the situation to the authorities.It seems there were also three other passengers heading for Spain.Apparently it had been the airline’s fault,since the flight numbers for Spain and Jamaica were exactly the same!Therefore,with no flight back to London for a week,the airline had no choice but to pay for our stay.

So there I was,lying on the beach,enjoying the music and the marvelous food of Jamaica!As for Aunt Rosa,I suppose she just had to live without me!

38.Why did the writer choose to spend her holiday with her aunt in Spain?

A.She missed her cousins very much.

B.Her aunt begged her to go there.

C.She could hardly afford any better trip.

40.Which of the following might be the best title of the passage?

A.A Lucky Mistake

B.A Terrible Adventure

C.A Nice Dream

D.A Well-Planned Trip

(B)

With the cost of college rising in the U.S.,some students are washing their hands of the American education system,grabbing their passports,and seeking cheaper degrees abroad.The number of students doing so has increased2percent annually in recent years,according to the Department of Education.

In2009,Jessica Fuller,then25,was employed at a small private university in Philadelphia as a clerk in an office.Bored with her job and becoming increasingly interested in healthcare industry, Fuller knew she would need a master’s degree in public health for her dream career.

At first,Fuller wanted a school in New York and Pennsylvania,but with many programs costing over$30,000per year for tuition alone,she decided on an option she could better afford ----the Netherlands.A similar degree in health economics cost less than$17,000for a one-year program.

To finance her education at Erasmus University in Rotterdam,Fuller took out a$30,000bank loan through her mother’s credit,which covered tuition and fees,as well as air travel and living expenses for her year abroad.

The cost may be lower,but is the quality of education overseas just as good as an American university?Jessica Fuller says in her case,yes:she found a consulting job with Marsh Inc.as an International Knowledge Manager shortly after she graduated from Erasmus University,and says that the university---and its location----were definitely a factor.

“Many Erasmus professors were world famous experts in their fields,”says Fuller.“Considering the variety of the students,the class discussions were very robust.Having an “international”advantage made a huge difference.”

41.Why did Jessica Fuller want to study for a master’s degree?

A.She could afford tuition at Erasmus University.

B.Her job required more professional skills.

C.She was bored with healthcare industry.

D.Her interest was in public health.

42.Jessica was able to go to Erasmus University by______.

https://www.wendangku.net/doc/9117018873.html,ing her own credit card

B.having a part-time job

C.getting a scholarship from the university

D.obtaining a loan from a bank

43.The word“robust”in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to“_________”.

A.awkward and fruitless

B.strong and vigorous

C.peaceful and pleasant

D.brief and informal

44.Jessica’s case shows that there is a tendency among U.S.students to______.

A.choose t study overseas

B.look for jobs abroad

C.seek education of higher quality

D.take one-year program

(C)

A lot of people today are used to working,going on holiday,and having money---but many of them aren’t happy.Yet other people seem to be really happy,even if they are poor.Why?

Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi,from the University of Chicago,has interviewed thousands of people who have a happy life to find out how they do it.“I’ve been studying happiness for over30years,”he says.“My interest in the subject came from my own experience as a child during World War II,when I saw many adults destroyed by the terrible events.But there were always a few who kept their courage,helped others,and were able to give a sense of purpose and meaning to their lives.I wanted to find out how a person could build a fulfilling and enjoyable life.”

In general,his research showed that people were unhappy doing nothing.The professor stresses that happy people didn’t waste time,either at work or when they are free.“Many people feel that the time they spend at work or at school is wasted.But often their free time is also wasted. Many people are used to doing passive things----watching television,for example----without using any skills.As a result,life goes past in a series of boring experiences.”

But it doesn’t have to be this way.The professor has found that people are happy when get into something he calls“flow”.When people get very involved in a task that they have chosen, and which is well-defined and challenging,they experience“flow”,a state where they don’t notice time passing.

They also experience enjoyment.Professor Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi,makes a contrast between enjoyment and pleasure.“I used to think they were the same thing----but they’re not! Pleasure is a big bowl of ice cream,or taking a hot bath on a cold day---nothing bad at all!But enjoyment is about doing something and achieving something.It isn’t really important what we do, it’s more important to do something,and feel positive about it,and to try to do it well.”

People who are not used to happiness can learn how to be happy,says the professor,if they constantly get into“flow”states.Is happiness as easy as that?Perhaps it is.

45.What did the professor want to find out through his research?

A.The difference between enjoyment and pleasure.

B.The secret of having a fulfilling and pleasant life.

C.The real meaning and purpose of life.

D.The way of passing the time enjoyably..

46.When a person is in a“flow”state,he/she______.

A.is guilty about wasting time

B.feels stressed doing challenging jobs

C.easily forgets what time it is

D.has a strong desire to finish a boring task

47.In which situation can people experience enjoyment according to the professor?

A.When having afternoon tea.

B.When taking a hot bath in winter.

C.When watching a soap drama.

D.When making a DIY gift for a friend.

48.What can we learn from the passage?

A.Pleasures add a sense of purpose and meaning to lives.

B.Happiness results from engaging in meaningful tasks.

C.Happy people often relax themselves by doing nothing.

D.Happiness has much to do with living conditions.

B ） Good Morning Britain’s Susanna Reid is used to grilling guests on the sofa every morning, but she is cooking up a storm in her latest role – showing families how to prepare delicious and nutritious meals on a tight budget. In Save Money: Good Food, she visits a different home each week and with the help of chef Matt Tebbutt offers top tips on how to reduce food waste, while preparing recipes for under ￡5 per family a day. And the Good Morning Britain presenter says she’s been able to put a lot of what she’s learnt into practice in her own home, preparing meals for sons, Sam, 14, Finn, 13, and Jack, 11. “We love Mexican churros, so I buy them on my phone from my local Mexican takeaway restaurant,” she explains. “I pay ￡5 for a portion (一份), but Matt makes them for 26p a portion, because they are flour, water, sugar and oil. Everybody can buy takeaway food, but sometimes we’re not aware how cheaply we can make this food ourselves.” The eight-part series (系列节目), Save Money: Good Food, follows in the footsteps of ITV’s Save Money: Good Health, which gave viewers advice on how to get value from the vast range of health products on the market. With food our biggest weekly household expense, Susanna and Matt spend time with a different family each week. In tonight’s Easter special they come to the aid of a family in need of some delicious inspiration on a budget. The team transforms the family’s long weekend of celebration with less expensive but still tasty recipes. 24. What do we know about Susanna Reid A. She enjoys embarrassing her guests. B.

B. Provide some advice for the readers. C. Add some background information. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text A. Keeping Fit by Eating Smart B. Balancing Our Daily Diet ] C. Making Yourself a Perfect Chef D. Cooking Well for Less C Languages have been coming and going for thousands of years, but in recent times there has been less coming and a lot more going. When the world was still populated by hunter-gatherers, small, tightly knit (联系) groups developed their own patterns of speech independent of each other. Some language experts believe that 10,000 years ago, when the world had just five to ten million people, they spoke perhaps 12,000 languages between them. Soon afterwards, many of those people started settling down to become farmers, and their languages too became more settled and fewer in number. In recent centuries, trade,

(完整版)2018年英语三级考试试题及答案解析

2018成人学士学位英语考试试题 I. Reading comprehension Passage 1 Since its founding in 1948, McDonald's has grown from a family burger (汉堡包) stand to a global fast-food chain, with more than 30,000 locations in 118 countries. With 58 million daily customers worldwide, McDonald’s is now so ubiquitous around the globe that The Economist publishes a global ranking of currencies' purchasing power based on the prices charged at the local McDonald’s, called the Big Mac Index (巨无霸指数).That’s not to say that every nation carries the same menu items: choices vary widely depending on location. Some Asian locations serve fried shrimp in a Big Mac roll, while McDonald’s in India doesn’t serve beef at all, relying instead on burgers made from vegetables, rice and beans. Not everyone in the world has been happy to greet Ronald McDonald when he moves to town. Many see McDonald's as a symbol of American economic and cultural chauvinism (沙文主义), and European nations in particular have viewed American-style fast food as an insult to their national food. A French farmer, Jose Bove, became something of a national hero in 1999 after he and a group of people destroyed a McDonald's under construction to protest globalization and "bad food." The next year, a bomb exploded in a French McDonald’s, killing a 27-year-old employee. (76) (76)No one claimed responsibility. But regardless of whether you like their food or their policies, McDonald’s is still widely seen as one of the true pioneers of peaceful globalization. 1.
