Part I Reading Comprehension

Section A

Directions: There are ４passages in this section. Each followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best

choice.

Passage A

The habit of being on time is very important in modern life. To be on time means to do anything at the right time and never be late in keeping an appointment. If you always fail to be on time, that is to say, you often don't do things until the last minute, you will have a busy life. You would have to hurry for meetings, classes, and you would often feel sorry for having missed your train or flight. Even if you were OK, your friends would be angry, because you failed to keep your promises. They would worry about what you are going to miss next time.

What is more, if you are late for something, you will be wasting both yours and others' precious time. The reason is very simple: they will have to wait for you and cannot do their work.

If a teacher were 10 minutes late for his class, all the students in the class would lose 10 minutes. Imagine, how much work could be done if the students work together for 10 minutes?

However, being on time is not just a matter of time. Sometimes being late can be right, for example, we do not have to be on time for a dinner party, because it's impolite. Actually, when we say to be on time is a good habit, we mean that we should be considerate, don’t you agree?

1. What is this passage mainly about?

A) The habit of traveling. B) The habit of being on time.

C) The art of living a busy life. D) How to save time.

2. Why should we be on time?

A) Because we must keep a busy life. B) Because we have to do too many things at a time.

C) Because we don't have much work to do. D) Because we must not waste time.

3. If a teacher were late, what would happen?

A) It would waste students’ time. B) Students would make trouble.

C) It would be OK if the students were there. D) Students would be impolite.

4. What is not true according to the passage?

A) We must be on time on any occasion. B) Being late is a waste of time and money.

C) To be on time is a matter of trust. D) Being late can make yourself upset.

5. What can we learn from the passage?

A) We must not take it seriously. B) We must not be on time.

C) We must be considerate. D) We sometimes can be ill.

Passage B

The cloud in the sky is part of our life. In some places, there aren’t many days without clouds all the year round. Some people call them "cotton in the s ky”. But do you know how clouds are formed?

There are three important things in the forming of clouds: water, heat, and air. The heat of the sun warms the water and air close to the ground. Some water changes into water vapor and goes into the air. Then the warm air rises. The warm air takes the water vapor up into the sky, where they meet with cold air. The water vapor cools down and changes back into water, forming very small drops of water, called water droplets(微滴). These small water droplets don't just fall down, because more warm air is still

coming up. As a result, we can see different kinds of clouds in the sky.

However, with more and more water vapor changes back into water droplets, they get together and become bigger and bigger, thus heavier and heavier. Finally, they drop down to the ground.

6. What is the passage about?

A) How water comes into the air. B) How clouds are formed.

C) How warm air can fall down. D) How water changes.

7. What are the three important things in the forming of the clouds?

A) The sun, water and air. B) Warm air, droplets and water.

C) Cold air, wind and water. D) Water, heat and air.

8. Why don't the small drops of water in the cloud fall down to the ground?

A) Because of the rising warm air. B) Because they are too small.

C) Because they get together. D) Because they are clouds.

9. When do water droplets drop down to the ground?

A) When they become water vapor.

B) When they get warmer and bigger.

C) When they become colder and smaller.

D) When they become bigger and heavier.

10. What will be discussed next?

A) Snow. B) Rainbow. C) Rain. D) Waterfall.

Passage Ｃ

We can find water in almost everywhere: in ponds, streams, rivers, lakes, and in addition, as we know it, there is water in the air, in the clouds. Perhaps there is only one kind of place when water is very rare: deserts. How much have we all learned from books, films, and stories about how water can be so precious and so hard to get in deserts!

For many years people have never doubted about this. But, is this true? Sometimes we may take many things for granted and stopped thinking about them. The water problem in deserts is a very good example. Actually, scientists have found that there is plenty of water in deserts, much more than we ever expected. But, why can't we find them and use them?

The problem is that deserts are all sand, which cannot hold water up. The water in deserts is not on the surface. Water quickly goes down into the deep sand. They are stored under the sand, pure and cool. Many people who died in deserts maybe just a few yards away from the unknown water supply. They either didn't know that there is water just under their feet, or they just didn’t have the necessary tools to get them out. If we can have the right tools, we can save many lives.

11. What is the passage about?

A) Desserts and water. B) Sands and water.

C) Water in the desert. D) Water in everywhere.

12. What do we used to think about the desert?

A) There is much water in the desert. B) There is no water in the desert.

C) There are rivers in the desert. D) There are lakes in the desert.

13. Which is the fact according to the passage?

A) There is rare water in deserts. B) There is plenty of water in deserts

C) It is easy for people to find water in deserts. D) There is enough water on the surface of deserts.

14. According to the speaker, why did some people die in deserts?

A) There is no water at all in the desert.

B) There is too much sand in the desert.

C) The people are not strong enough to live in the desert.

D) The people didn't have the right tools to get water.

15. According to the passage, where can we find water in deserts?

A) Deep in the sand. B) Just under the surface of the sand.

C) Nowhere at all. D) In the holes in deserts.

Passage Ｄ

Because there are so many nationalities (民族) in America, people can find almost any kind of restaurants in most of the large cities. The telephone book lists restaurants for each city according to the name, area (地区) of the city, or kind of food. Restaurants in large cities vary greatly in price. Many restaurants put up their menus (菜单) on the window so you can have some idea of the price and kind of food before you enter. If you cannot find the menu on the window, and you are not sure about how expensive the place is, ask to see a menu before you sit down at a table, or just ask about the price. Appearances from the outside can be misleading (误导) what looks like a small, informal restaurant may really be very expensive, and what looks like a large, expensive restaurant may be very reasonable (价格合理的) .

You can get a meal (餐饭) for about $4 or $5 or a little more if you eat in a snack bar (快餐馆) or coffee shop, but in most city restaurants you should expect to pay $8 to $10 a person for dinner, with alcoholic (酒精的) drinks and wine extra (另付). Prices in New York City are even higher.

16. Restaurants in each city are listed in the telephone book according to the _________.

A) area of the city B) name of the restaurant C) kind of food D) any of the above

17. Where can you see the menus in many restaurants?

18. To let people get some idea of ________, many restaurants have their menu put up on the window.

A) the price of the food B) the area of the city

C) the restaurant D) the kind of service provided

19. In most city restaurants, what is the usual dinner price for a person?

A) $4 to $6. B) $4 to $8. C) $6 to $8. D) $8 to $10.

20. What does the passage intend to tell us?

大学英语口语考试试题及答案

以下为爱麟霖/(Curlylin)倾情奉献，需要的朋友可以参考一下 7. Friendship (Listening and Speaking Course, Unit 3; Integrated Course, Unit 2) 1) Do you have many friends? What kind of people do you want to make friends with? Why? Yes. I’d like to make friends with loyal people. In my opinion,a friend is a person who can share his/hers happiness with you, who can lend you a shoulder when you cry,who can give you a hand when you are in trouble without asking for anything in return. In a word,a friend in need is a friend indeed, I think a loyal people can do the things which were mentioned above for his/hers true friend. So I prefer to make friends with loyal people, and I also believe I am a loyal people who you can make friends with. 2) How do you make friends? Please comment on “a friend you buy isn’t worth the price”. First,I’d like to talk to him to find out whether we have the same interest with each other. If the answer is YES,then we have the foundation to develop a friendship. The next days, all we need to do is to treat each other by heart and soul. 3) How valuable is friendship in a person’s life? How can we keep friendship alive? As for me, I regard friendship as a very important part in my life.Just imagine a life,there’s no one to be your friend. What life could be if you had no friend to talk to , no friend to comfore you and cheer you up when you were having a hard time,no friend to lend you a hand when you needed help …… Life without friends is unthinkable ... We have to do hard work to build up and sustain our friendship. First, let your friends know that you really care about them.It’s important to give some cues to your friends. Be sure your friend knows that she is cared about.Second,try to be with your friends when they are in trouble when they need you. Keeping friendship alive is not only to say some sweet words,but need some real action. 4) What does friendship mean to you? What kind of friends do you think are true friends? It's a fantastic experience in whole of my life. Friendship to me is what water to fish.I can't live without a real friend. 2问见（1） 5) How can we get along well with other people? To begin with, we need to be honest with others and always say what we mean. Lies will surely make people stay far away from us in the long run. After all,honesty is the best policy. Second, we have to be humble enough. If we are proud in public, we can hardly win other's respect, not to mention "friendship" . Finally, we must not be selfish. We should learn how to show concern for others. As long as we abide[?'ba?d] by what is mentioned above, we will find it easy to get along well with others.

The money has gone to school systems to get them to use scientifically based ways to teach reading. The goal is to help all children read at or above grade level by the end of the third grade. The Bush administration’s education law, the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, established Reading First. Now, the Department of Education has released findings from a study of the program. On average, teachers using it increased the time they taught reading skills like phonics and vocabulary. But the study also found, on average, little or no effect on test scores in reading comprehension. Government researchers say they are not sure how to explain the results. Another new report listed the books read most often last year by students in American schools. The Renaissance Learning company based the report on its reading programs used in many schools. Students read books and then took computer quizzes to see if they understood them. There are tests for more than one hundred fifteen thousand books.
