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

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，并在答题纸上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

Among the company was a lawyer, a young man of about twenty-five. On being asked his opinion, he said, "Capital punishment and life imprisonment are equally immoral. If I were to make a choice between them, I would rather choose the latter Anyway, it’s better to live than not to live at all."

A lively discussion followed. A banker, who was then younger and more nervous than the lawyer, suddenly lost his temper and cried out, "It’s a lie. I bet you two million .You wouldn’t stick in a cell even for five years."

"If you mean it," replied the young lawyer, "I bet I’ll stay there longer; make it fifteen instead of five." "Fifteen! Done!" cried the banker. "Gentleman, I bet you two millions."

"Agreed. Two millions for my freedom," said the lawyer.

So this wild, ridiculous bet came to pass. The banker could not hide his excitement During supper he said to the lawyer jokingly, "Come to your senses, young man, before it’s too late. Two millions are nothing to me, but you stand to lose three or four of the best years of your life. I say three or four because you’ll never stick it out any longer Don’t forget that voluntary imprisonment is much harder to put up with than a enforced one. The idea that you have the right to free yourself any moment will poison your life in the cell. I pity you." And now the banker, pacing from comer to comer, recalled all this and asked himself, "Why did I make this bet? What’s the good? The lawyer lost fifteen years of hi life and I threw away two millions. Will it convince people that capital punishment is worse or better than imprisonment for life? No, no! Rubbish! On my part, it was the caprice （心血来潮）of a well-fed millionaire; on the lawyer’s part, it’s the pure greed c gold."

21．The lawyer would choose life imprisonment because.

A.he was younger than the banker

B.capital punishment was immoral

C.it was better than capital punishment

D. the banker would give him $200,000

22. The author considers the bet between the lawyer and the banker.

A. interesting

B. ridiculous

C. capricious

D. instructive

23. The word ‘company’ in the first paragraph refers to __.

A. companions

B. bankers

C. lawyers

D. prisoners

24. The banker was extremely excited because __.

A. he was too rich to care for the money

B. he was sure of his winning the bet

C. the lawyer would give up in 15 years

D. the lawyer would give up before 5 years

25. In the end, the banker considers his bet with the lawyer __.

A. rational

B. reasonable

C. beneficial

D. unreasonable

Passage Two

Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

Online learning is also called distance education, which helps students who take classes by computer over the Internet to learn certain courses and earn a degree. And it has become more and more popular with both young people and educational institutions.

The School of Continuing and Professional Studies of New York University in Manhattan began online classes in 1992. Its Virtual School has taught more than 10,000 students from across the United States and

other countries.

Last year，the school launched NYU Online. It offers NYU’s first online Programs for a bachelor’s degree. Programs are offered in three areas; leadership And management, information systems management and social sciences. The classes are highly interactive where students communicate with each other and their teachers. Some classes require students to log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects.

The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student is to take It costs as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year. NYU offers no financial aid for international students in this program. If you are interested in the program, you can gel more details at the website: https://www.wendangku.net/doc/cb13466206.html,. Many other schools, too, offer online education. Students should be especially careful of programs that offer a degree in return for little or no work. These are known as diploma mills, and are illegal in the United States.

Educational advisers also say that before you enter any program, make sure the work will be recognized in your country. You should also make sure the schools you are considering are officially approved.

26. The third paragraph is mainly about the __ of the programs of the School.

A. academic goal and system

B. courses and learning mode

C. learning methods and classes

D. courses and requirements

30. The payment for online programs of NYU is based on.

A.the number of classes a student attends

B.the number of students a professor instructs

C.the number of semesters a student spends

D.the number of presentations a student makes

Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

An understanding of man’s effect on the balance of nature is crucial (关键的) to being able to find the appropriate remedial action. It is a very common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is the populations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.

For example, tropical forests are known to be essential to the balance of nature, yet we are destroying them at a great rate. They are being cleared not to benefit the natives of that country, but to satisfy the needs of rich countries. Central American forests are being destroyed for grassland to make pet food in the United

States cheaper; in Papua slew Guinea, forests are destroyed to supply cheaper cardboard packaging for Japanese electronic products; in Burma and Thailand, forests have been destroyed to produce more attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong. Therefore, a rich person living thousands of miles away may cause more tropical forest destruction than a poor person living in the forest itself.

In short, it is everybody’s duty to safeguard the future of mankind—not only through population control, but by being more aware of the effect his actions have on nature. Nature is both fragile and powerful. It is very easily destroyed; on the other hand, it can easily destroy its most dangerous enemy—man.

31.According to the first paragraph, people usually believe that .

A.poor people in poor countries contribute to the imbalance of nature

B. rich people know how to protect the environment by taking actions

C. people in poor areas know a lot about the birth control

D. rich people in rich countries have done a lot to balance nature

32. In the author’s opinion, __.

A. developing countries should be responsible for environmental problems

B. overpopulation in the world is created by the developed countries

C. rich countries exercise worse influence on environment than poor countries

D. all countries should bring the population growth under control

33. The purpose of the second paragraph is mainly to illustrate __.

A. how the forests in the U. S. are being destroyed

B. which countries are the victims of the imbalance of nature

C.what Japan has done to develop its own economy

D. how South Asian countries make quality furniture

34. Nature is very easily destroyed by __.

A. rich people

B. poor people

C. natural disasters

D. mankind

35. The topic of the passage is that __.

A.the control of population is essential to the development of a nation

B.natural resources are important to the economic development of a country

C.awareness of the effects of man’s actions is as important as population control

D. developed countries should do more to protect natural environment on the earth

Ⅶ.Translation from English into Chinese(15 points)

When you turn on the television, put on your shoes or drive to a store, you’re using energy. Energy is one of the most fundamental forces in the world. Animals use energy to walk and run. Trees and plants use energy to grow. People use it to work and play.

Energy is everywhere in nature—in the light of the sun, in the wind, in the forest, in water currents and erupting volcanoes. Without energy, there is no life. We use our own energy constantly and we continually make use of all kinds of energy.

Energy can be divided into two different types: stored energy and dynamic energy.

Stored energy is called potential energy, and the latter refers to energy in motion. If you stretch out a rubber band, this produces potential energy. If you let it go, it moves an produces the dynamic energy.

当你打开电视、穿鞋子、或驾车购物，你都在消耗能量。能量是世界上一种最基本的力。动物行走、奔跑、树木、植物生长，人类工作和消遣，都在消耗能量。能量存在于阳光、风、树林、水流和喷发的火山中，自然界中不无处不在。没有能量，就没有生命。我们在不断地消耗自身的能量，也在不断地消耗其他种类的能量。

能量有两种不同的类型：储能和动能。储能被称之为潜能，而动能被称之为运动能。如果你把橡皮筋拉长，这就产生了潜能；你一松手，它就会收缩并产生动能。

I was driving a taxi, looking for a customer. While passing New York Hospital, I found a man running down the hospital steps, waving at me. I stopped. The man reached the taxi and jumped in. “The Airport, please,”he said. As always, I wondered about my passenger. Was this man a talker? After a few moments, he started saying, “How do you like driving a taxi?” “It’s OK” I said. “I make a living and meet interesting people sometimes.” “What do you do?” I asked. “I am a doctor at New York Hospital.” Many times during long rides, I’d developed a good relationship with my passengers and received very good advice from them. This time I decided to ask for his help. “Could I ask a favor of you?” He didn’t answer. “I have a son, 15, a good kid. He wants a job this summer. Is it possible that you get one for him?” He still wasn’t talking, and I was starting to feel foolish. Finally, he said, “Well, my students have a summer research project. Maybe he could join in. Have him send me his school record.” He left his address and paid me. It was the last time I ever saw him.

You might be picturing me as an extreme environmentalist (环保主义者)，but I'm not one of those teenagers who wear shirts that say "Help save the world: Recycle."

Cycling also carries a relatively low chance of injury. While being good for your body，bicycle commuting is also a great way to cut greenhouse gases.

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.

Or, they’ll live healthier and more productive lives than the “cool” kids will. The study looked at 13-year-olds who acted old for their age by having “cool”behavior, such as early romantic relationships. They were seen as “cool” and popular kids. But as they grew up, things changed. The study found that these kids tended to have problems with drugs and relationships by their 20s. Their behavior was no longer linked with popularity. Instead, they were thought to be less socially skilled by their peers. Besides, the average “cool”kids, by age 22, did more poorly than the average kids in the study. They had a 45 percent greater rate of problems due to drugs and alcohol. They also had a 22 percent greater rate of criminal behavior. The study also found that these kids failed to develop important life skills. They spent so much time trying to seem cool. They didn’t

2018年4月高等教育自学考试《英语（一）》试题 课程代码：00012 一、阅读判断 Finding Paradise (天堂) and Success in Retirement Ivy Singh and her husband had their retirement all planned out. They wanted to have a place with enough land to grow plants. The couple successfully found a proper place and turned it into a farm called Bollywood Veggies. "We came and had a look and we found paradise. We started Bollywood Veggies there and then," she says. The basic idea of starting the farm was to keep themselves busy in retirement. Mrs. Singh says it was never begun as a business. "We started this as a lifestyle project for retirement." The farm's produce includes beans, cabbage and other crops. Soon, more people found out about the farm. Visitors often asked whether the farm offered any food or drinks. So the couple started a restaurant and a food museum on the farm. As the farm changed from a retirement to a commercial project, Mrs. Singh sought new business opportunities. A key area was growing bananas. Given the popularity of bananas and their use in a range of food products, she saw great potential. The farm uses its crop to make products such as banana chips and bread. Mrs. Singh, driven by the success of the project, now wants to open a retirement home on the farm. She says the farm is a nice place for people who have retired. Mrs. Singh says she does not care much about the profit, because she is getting to live her dream while making a difference to society. 1. Ivy and her husband made a careful plan for retirement. A.

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.
