Part I Reading Comprehension(30%)

Directions:There are three passages in this part.Each passage is follo wed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there a re four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best cho ice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 1

Questions 1to 5 are based on the following passage:

Looking back on my childhood,I am convinced that naturalists are b orn and not made. Although we were brought up in the same way, my broth ers and sisters soon abandoned their pressed (紧抱的) flowers and insec ts. Unlike them, I hand no ear for music and languages, I was not an e arly reader and I could not do mental arithmetic.

Before World War I we spent our summer holidays in Hungary.I have onlythe dim memory of the house we lived in,of my room and my toys.(76) Nor do I recall clearly the large family of grandparents,aunts,uncles and cousins who gathered next door . But I do have a crystal-clear memo ry of dogs, the farm animals, the local birds and above all,the insect s.

I am a naturalist,not a scientist.I have a strong love of the natu ral world,and my enthusiasm has led me into varied investigations. I lo ve dis- cussing my favorite topics and enjoy burning the midnight oil o il, reading about other people’s observations and discoveries. Then som ething happens that brings these observations together in my conscious mind. Suddenly you fancy you see the answer to the riddle (谜),because it all seems to fit together.This has resulted in my publishing 300 papers and books,which somemight honor with the title of scientific res earch.

But curiosity,a keen eye,a good memory and enjoyment of the animal andplant world do not make a scientist; one of the outstanding and es sential qualities required is self-discipline, a quality I lack. A scie ntist can bemade.A naturalist is born. If you can combine the two, you get the best of both worlds.

1. According to the author,a born naturalist should first of all be_

___.A. full of enthusiasm

B. self-disciplined

D. knowledgeable

2. The first paragraph tells us that the author _____.

B. didn’t like his brothers and sisters

C. was born to a naturalist’s family

D. was interested in flowers and insects in his childhood

3. The author says that he is a naturalist rather than a scientist

probably because he thinks he _____.

A. just reads about other people’s observations and discoveries

B. comes up with solutions in most natural ways

C. has a great deal of trouble doing mental arithmetic

D. lacks some of the qualities required of scientist

4. The author can’t remember his relatives clearly because_____.

A. he was fully occupied with observing nature

B. he didn’t live very long with them

C. the family was extremely large

D. he was too young when he lived with them

5. Which of the following statements is true?

B. The author’s brothers and sisters were good at music and

languages.

C. The author read a lot of books about the natural world and the oil industry.

D. The author spent a lot of time working on riddles.

Passage 2

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

If you have a chance to go to Finland, you will probably be surprise d to find how “foolish” the Finnish people are.

Take the taxi drivers for example. Taxis in Finland are mostly high- class Benz with a fare of two US dollars a kilometer. You can go any where in one, tell the driver to drop you at any place, say that you h ave some business to attend to, and then walk off without paying your fare. The driver would not show the least sign of anxiety.

The dining rooms in all big hotels not only serve their guests,but a lsoserve outside diners. Hotel guests have their meals free, so they na turallygo to the free dining rooms to have their meals. The most they w ould do to show their good faith is to wave their registration card to the waiter.Withsuch a loose check, you can easily use any old registrat ion card to take a couple of friends to dine free of charge.

The Finnish workers are paid by the hour. (77) They are very much on their own as soon as they have agreed with the boss on the rate. Fro m then on they just say how many hours they have worked and they will be paid accordingly.

With so many loopholes(漏洞) in everyday life, surely Finland must b e aheaven to those who love to take“petty advantages”. But the strange thing is, all the taxi passengers would always come back to pay their fare after they have attended to their business; not a single outsider has ever been found in the free hotel dining rooms. And workers always give an honest account of the exact hours they put in. As the Finns

always act on good faith in everything they do, living in such a so ciety has turned everyone into a real “gentleman”. (78) In a society of such high moral practice, what need is there for people to be on gu ard against others?

6. While taking a taxi in Finland, _____.

A. a passenger can go anywhere without having to pay the driver

B. a passenger pays two US dollars for a taxi ride

C. a passenger can never be turned down by the taxi driver whereve r he wants to go

D. a passenger needs to provide good faith demonstration before th

ey leave without paying

7. We know from the passage that big hotels in Finland_____.

A. provide meals for only those who live in the hotels

B. provide meals for any diners

C. provide free wine and charge for food

D. are mostly poorly managed

8. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?

A. The workers in Finland are paid by the hour.

B. The bosses in Finland are too busy to check the working hours o

f their employees.

C. The workers are always honest with their working hours.

D. The workers and their bosses will make an agreement in advance

about the pay.

9. The word “those” in the last paragraph probably refers to _____.

A. people who often take taxis

B. people who often have meals in big hotels

C. people who are dishonest

D. people who are worthy of trust

10. It can be concluded that _____.

A. Finnish people are not smart enough in daily life

B. Finland has been a good place for cheats

C. the Finnish society is of very high moral level

D. all the Finns are rich

Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

There are many factors which may have an influence on adults and children being able to lead a healthy life.

Nowadays, people are very busy. Often, both parents work outside t he home. Children are expected to take on more responsibility at home to help their parents. They also have sporting and leisure activities as well as school expectations.

The busyness also adds another factor: the need to use cars to get from one place to another quickly.

Today, society places a lot of emphasis on technology. Computers,D VDs,CDs, television, PlayStations and Xboxes have become major leisure

activi- ties, rather than traditional more active pursuits. This has le d to a more sedentary lifestyle.

The media provide entertainment and information.(79)Unfortunately, theyalso promote fast food which fits easily into busy lifestyles. It i s much more convenient at times to buy a quick takeaway rather than pr epare a meal.The media constantly bombard(轰炸)their audience with‘perf ect’body images,the need to buy the most fashionable clothes, the most up-to-date computer games, the best places to visit and the best things to do.

Environments vary. We may be exposed to pollution, such as cigaret te smoke. This can be harmful to people who suffer from breathing diff iculties. (80)Environments where passive smoking is unavoidable make it difficult to lead a healthy life.

It is important for everyone to be accepted and cared about by fa milyand friends. Both of these groups can influence people—positively and ne-gatively.Negative feelings can lead people to adopt an unhealt hy lifestyle. Perhaps the most important factor influencing health y lifestyles is motivation, or the desire to be healthy.Any person wh o wants to be healthywill find a way to be healthy —if he/she is moti vated enough!

11. The passage is mainly about _____.

A. benefits of a healthy lifestyle

B. demands of daily life

C. factors affecting a healthy lifestyle

D. a positive approach to healthy living

12. The word “sedentary” in Paragraph 4 probabl y means _____.

A. having a lot of things to do

B. involving little exercise or physical activity

C. being isolated from the outside world

D. experiencing a lot of stress

13. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in the passage as a fact

or leading to the popularity of fast food?

A. Cheap price.

B. The media.

C. Busy lifestyle.

D. Convenie nce

14. Which is NOT listed as a factor influencing the ability to have

a healthy lifestyle?

A.Pollution.

B.Economic factors.

C.Dependence upon cars.

D.Influence of family or friends.

15. According to the author, _____ may be the most important factor

Passage 1 : Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage The reflective towers of New York City,which is on the Atlantic migrating (迁徙的)route ,can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,”said https://www.wendangku.net/doc/aa17150286.html,urel,an architect.(76)“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights,and the larger the glass,the more dangerous it is.”About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often,they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds,after habitat(栖息地)loss,with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year. (77)As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade,so,too,have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings,will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process. There are no easy fixes,however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet(紫外线的)signals,but they are still in their infancy.

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don ' t think your fat cells won't notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat calls, reducing their ability to respond to insulin ( 胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term ,this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), f atty liver disease and weight gain . The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there 's“ an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good ,healthy body weight ” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem ,director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase ,Maryland. (76) But Americans don ' t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us ,according to a report form the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ,is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night ,on average. So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young ,thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “ For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night ,” says Brady. Then ,a month later ,they came back for four additional nights —but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit ,researchers got a sample of their fat.(77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “ I was very surprised to be honest ,” he says. Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “ Fat cells are actually your friend ,”he says. “They 're there to store lipids( 血脂).” When lipids stay inside the cells ,your body can utilize the fat when you ' re exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “ However ,when fat cells start to become insulin resistant ,the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream ,” Brady says. 1.According to the passage ,lack of the sleep for a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT ______ . 第一段最后一句 A.heart disease B. weight gain C. diabetes D. liver disease 2.The main idea of the third paragraph is . 第一句 A.how to write a medical research paper B. how to avoid sleep loss C. how the research was conducted D. how to conduct a medical experiment 3.What does the word “ leach ” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Leap B. Lead. C. Lead. D. Leak . 泄露

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案 2011.11.05 PartⅠReading 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的)route , can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,”said https://www.wendangku.net/doc/aa17150286.html,urel, an architect.(76)“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.” About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat(栖息地)loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year. (77)As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too, have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process. There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet(紫外线的)signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and net are the main options available. Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don't necessarily have to treat every window,”https://www.wendangku.net/doc/aa17150286.html,urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.”The Jacob Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. New York is a city of glass towers. B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds. C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings. D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States. 2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds? A. Climate change B. Habitat loss C. Lack of food D. Crashing into buildings. 3. What does the word “fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Choices B. Explanations C. Solutions D. Developments 4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. A. Dot patterns B. Shades C. Nets D. Covers 5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes. B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes. C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year. D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages. Passage 2 Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage: Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations(革新)are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital(数字的),they are impatient to get on with life. The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship(企业家才能)education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.

The time of year at which you are born has an enduring influence on levels of optimism and self-reported luck, according to a research by British and Swedish scientists. May was the luckiest month in which to be born, with 50 percent of those born then considering themselves lucky, while October was the least lucky month, with just 43 percent claiming good fortune. The findings add to growing evidence that the phenomenon of luck is not all down to chance, but is affected by a person’s general disposition. Other researc h has shown that whether people think themselves fortunate depends less on objective success than on having a “glass half-full” or “half-empty” approach to life. “What we are seeing suggests that something is influencing how people perceive their luckiness. My hypothesis is that people create their own luck by traits such as optimism, that luck is a psychological phenomenon rather than a matter of blind chance,” said Professor Richard Wiseman, who led the research. The pattern of the result, with those born in spring and in summer reporting themselves luckier than those born in autumn or winter, could have two potential explanations, Professor Wiseman said. 1.According to the passage, whether people think themselves lucky or not depends on the following factors EXCEPT _______. A. one’s objective success B. one’s general disposition C. one’s attitude to life D. one’s place of birth

成人本科学士学位英语考试试题及答案(B卷)

成人本科学士学位英语考试试题及答案(B卷) 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 blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly ail the teachers are women, mostly married. (76) 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 (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) 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 giving 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. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness. 1. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children__________. A. sensible and sensitive B. competitive and interested C. curious and friendly D. happy and co-operative 2. Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think__________. A. children are reluctant to help each other B. schools lay too much emphasis on co-operation C. children should grow up with competitive ideas D. schools give little actual instruction to children 3. The author's attitude towards American education can be best described as__________. A. favorable B. negative C. tolerant D. unfriendly 4. The American educational system emphasizes__________. A. material wealth B. competition C. co-operation D. personal benefit 5. The word "sociable" (Line 8, Paragraph 2) most probably means__________. A. fond of talking freely B. friendly with other people C. concerned about social welfare D. happy at school Passage 2
