模拟试题一

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 you 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 when 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 been 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. To the trained observer they 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. Such a gesture can be understood as an unconscious attempt on the part of the liar to stop himself or herself from lying.

Of course, such gestures as rubbing the nose or covering the mouth, or moving about in a chair cannot be taken as proof that the speaker is lying. They simply tend to occur more frequently in this situation. It is not one gesture alone that gives the liar away but a whole number of things, and in particular the context in which the lie is told.

1.According to the passage, a “white lie” seems to be a lie

A.that other people believe

A.they wish they were somewhere else

A.hates to lie

B.enjoys lying

C.often tells a lie

D.tries to analyze lying

Passage 2

Question 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.

(78) Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time: if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the language he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people’s. In the same way, children learning to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught—to walk, run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle—compare their own performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his mistakes and correct them for himself. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what his word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.

If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells that he can’t find the way to get the right answer. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.

6. According to the passage, which of the following is the best way for children to learn

things?

A. Listening to skilled people’s advice.

B. Asking older people many questions.

C. Making mistakes and having them corrected.

D. Doing what other people do.

7. The writer think teachers should NOT .

A. give children correct answers

B. allow children to make mistakes

C. point out children’s mistakes to them

D. let children mark their own work

8. According to the writer, teachers in school should .

A. allow children to learn from each other

B. point out children’s mistakes whenever found

C. correct children’s mistakes as soon as possible

D. give children more book knowledge

9. According to the passage, learning to speak and learning to ride a bicycle are .

A. different from learning other skills

B. the same as learning other skills

C. more important than other skills

D. not really important skills

10. The title of this passage could probably be .

A. Let Us Teachers Stop Work

B. Let Us Make Children Learn

C. Let Children Correct Their Exercises

D. Let Children Learn By Themselves Passage 3

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

(79) John had bought a packet of cigarettes just before we caught the train and he offered me one as we settled ourselves in our compartment. We were on our way back from a camping holiday；we had lived rough for over a fortnight and even a cigarette was

a luxury at that moment.

I felt in my pocket for a box of matches, but could not find any.

“I haven’t got any either,” said John.

Sitting opposite to us was a man whose face was hidden by a newspaper.

“Excuse me, sir,” said John, leaning across. “Could you give me a light, please?”

The newspaper was lowered to reveal a rather elderly man with a stern face.

“This is a no smoking compartment,” the man said. He indicated the notice near the window. We apologized and put away our unlit cigarettes.

(80) The man went on, in a rather more kindly way, to warn us against the dangers of smoking.

“I speak as a doctor,” he concluded, and after that he went back to reading his newspaper.

When he got out a few stations later, he left his newspaper behind him. We picked it up, eager to find out what had happened while we were on holiday.

“Just look at this,” remarked John, pointing to a photograph. “it’s the man who was sitting opposite us.” Underneath the photograph was an account of a lunatic (精神病者) who had recently escaped. It appeared that he liked to pretend to be a doctor.

11.The friends had spent their holiday ______.

A. on a boat

B. in a tent

C. on a farm

D. with an aunt

12. Their holiday had lasted ______.

C. less than two weeks

D. a week or two 13. The man ______.

C. dropped his newspaper

D. did not take his newspaper with him

14. The two friends read the newspaper ______.

C. to pass the time

D. to look at the pictures

15. The man’s photograph was in the newspaper because he was ______.

模拟试题一答案详解

Passage 1

一文章总体结构分析

全篇围绕“谎言”这一主题展开叙述：第一段通过举例及疑问的方式探讨究竟什么才算是谎言；第二段介绍了南加州大学的Jerald Jellison教授做过一个关于说谎的科学研究的结论，即男人和女人说谎是不同的，而男人更可能说更严重的谎言；第三段则介绍了说谎时行为上的一些细微的改变；第四段主要讲述了说谎时“封嘴”这一具体行为；最后又补充说明以上举止并不能构成讲话者正在说谎的证据，而是一系列的东西，特别是说谎者所说的谎言本身。

二试题具体分析

1. 【答案】C 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握，答案对应于文章第一、二段。第一段中“you don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this.”，第二段又用举例的方法解释了white lie的含义。这个例子就是“such as when a woman at a party tells another woman that she likes her dress when she really think it looks awful.”

2. 【答案】A 本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应文章的第二段。该段比较了男人和女人说谎的不同，而且男人更可能说更严重的谎言。参见第二段中句子“Other researchers say that men are more likely to tell more serious lies,……”这里的比较就是与前一句中女人撒谎相比。

3. 【答案】C 本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应于第三段第一句：Research has also been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie. 同样有研究侧重于当人们说谎时他们行为的一些细小的，明显的不重要的改变，很容易看出答案C与该句符合。

4. 【答案】B 本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应于第三段最后一句：The tip of the nose is very sensitive to such changes and the increased pressures make it itch. 鼻尖对这样的变化非常敏感，血压的增加使得它发痒，即与B选项吻合。

5. 【答案】D 此题考查的是考生对整篇短文的观点的理解。文章首先讲到男人女人说谎的不同，而后又分析说谎时人们行为方式的变化等等，所以说文章是在分析说谎。其他选项错误。

三文章长难句分析与佳句赏析

1．In fact, you are not short of money but your friend is in the habit of not paying his debt and you don’t want to hurt his feelings by reminding him of this. 实际上，你并不缺钱，但是你的这位朋友却有欠钱不还的习惯而你又不想通过提醒他这点而伤害他的感情。句子结构分析：you are not short of…but your friend is in the habit of…and you don’t want to…by…；short of…缺乏…；in the habit of…养成…习惯；pay one`s deb 还…的债；remind sb of…提醒某人使想起…。

2．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. 他说有几种动作形式，例如用手指掩一部分嘴，摸上嘴唇或者一个手指支在嘴角。

句子结构分析：He says there are several typical forms of this, such as…；cover…with…用…遮盖。

四、核心词汇

short of…缺乏…；in the habit of…养成…习惯；pay one`s deb还…的债；remind sb of…提醒某人使想起…；liar惯于说谎者；awful糟糕的；fulfill履行，实现，完成；sensitive敏感的，灵敏的；give…away出卖…；unconscious无意识的，不省人事；attempt尝试，努力，试图；rub擦，摩擦；context上下文；itch发痒；

五、全文翻译

谎言究竟是什么？是说一些我们知道不是真实的事情？还是甚于这些？例如，

假设一个朋友向你借钱。你说“我希望能帮助你，但我现在自己也缺钱。”实际上，你并不缺钱，但是你的这位朋友却有欠钱不还的习惯而你又不想通过提醒他这

点而伤害他的感情。这是一个真正的谎言吗？

南加州大学的Jerald Jellison教授做过一个关于说谎的科学研究。研究显示女人

比男人更善于说谎，特别是说“善意的谎言”，例如在一个派对上一个女人称赞另

一个女人的衣服而实际上她认为那衣服很难看。然而这只是故事的一方面。其他的

研究者说男人更倾向于说一些较严重的谎言，例如承诺他们从来没想过要实现的承诺。政客和商人似乎特别擅长于此类谎言：说谎者可从谎言中获利或在某些方面得

到好处。

同样有研究侧重于当人们说谎时他们行为的一些细小的，明显的不重要的改变。结果表明如果他们当时坐着，那么他们会更多的在椅子中移动。他们对受过训

练的观察者承认“我希望我是在另一个地方”。他们也会更多的触摸脸部的某些部分，特别是鼻子。一个解释是因为说谎会使血压产生微小的变化。鼻尖对这样的变

化非常敏感，血压的增加使得它发痒。

另一个将说谎者出卖的举动是在Desmond Morris的书《Manwatching》中提到

的“封嘴”。他说有几种动作形式，例如用手指掩一部分嘴，摸上嘴唇或者一个手

指支在嘴角。这样的行为可以看作是一种阻止说谎者继续说谎的下意识举动。

当然，这些举止，例如摸鼻子或者掩盖嘴唇，或者在椅子中移动都不能作为讲

话者正在说谎的证据。只是这些行为在这样的情况下更容易发生。不是一个举止就

可以将说谎者出卖，而是一系列的东西，特别是说谎者所说的谎言本身。

Passage 2

一、文章总体结构分析

文章第一段主要围绕让孩子们学会判断他们自己的工作而论述，通过列举事实讲述

了要给孩子留有空间，让他们自己在学习中成长，而非总是来指导他们什么是正确

的什么是不正确的；第二段主要谈论在学校老师们总是给学生指出错误，应该让学

生自己发现错误，自己改正。

二、试题具体分析

6.【答案】D。本题考查的是考生对细节的把握，答案对应文章第一段，其中列举了大量事实讲述要给孩子留有空间，让他们自己在学习中成长，而并非总是来指导他们什么是正确什么不是正确。与D项更好相符。

7.【答案】C。本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应文章第一段后两句，根据其内容我们可以知道作者认为教师不能老是给学生指出错误，应该让学生自己发现错误，自己改正。

8.【答案】A。本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应文章第一段的内容。按照作者的意思，老师要允许孩子们彼此学习。9.【答案】B。本题考查的也是考生对细节的把握，答案对应文章第一段第四行。

10.【答案】D。本题考查的是考生对全篇文章的理解，第一段和第二段都是讲要让孩子自己去学会技能，而不必总是老师来教一切。

三、文章长难句分析与佳句赏析

1. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what his word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not. 让他自己解决，如果他愿意的话可以在其他孩子们的帮助下，他说什么，这个

问题的答案是什么，这是否是说或者做的一个好方法。

句子结构分析：Let him work out…what his word says, what the answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not。with the help of…在

句中作插入语成份。而work out后面跟的是三个并列成份。

2. Let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know. 让孩子们学习那些受过教育的人们有朝一日要学习的，如何衡量他们自己的理解力，如何知道他们知道什么，不知道什么。

句子结构分析：Let the children learn what…，how to…，how to…。what…，how to…，how to…为句子的三个并列宾语从句。

四、核心词汇

Judge判断；Bit by bit逐渐地；whistle吹口哨；performance执行，行为；point out

指出；work out解决；waste浪费；routine日常事务，例行公事；

五、全文翻译

让孩子们学会判断他们自己的工作。一个孩子学说话并不是通过一直地被纠正而学会的：如果被纠正的太多的话，他会停止说话。他在一天中注意他所用的语言和周围的人们用的语言的不同有上千次。一点一点地，他为使他的语言像其他人的一样而作了必要的改变。同样地，孩子们学其他所有的事情，他们都是无师自通的——走路，跑，爬，吹口哨，骑自行车——将他们自己的行为和那些更熟练地人们进行比较，慢慢地做出必要的改变。但是，在学校里，我们并没有给一个孩子发现自己的错误并自己改正的机会。我们全都为他们做了。我们的做法好像是我们认为他是不会注意到错误的，除非为他指出来，或者是他是不会改正错误的，除非我们让他改正。让他自己解决，如果他愿意的话可以在其他孩子们的帮助下，他说什么，这个问题的答案是什么，这是否是说或者做的一个好方法。

如果是一个正确答案的问题，像是数学或者是科学，给他们答案书。让他们自己更正自己的作业。为什么我们老师要浪费时间在如此程序化的事情上呢？我们的工作是在孩子说他找不到得到正确答案的方法时给他帮助。让孩子们学习那些受过教育的人们有朝一日要学习的，如何衡量他们自己的理解力，如何知道他们知道什么，不知道什么。Passage 3

一、文章大意和总体结构分析

这篇文章是一个小故事，讲述作者和朋友火车上与同车厢的旅客间发生的一件

趣事。作者和约翰准备在火车上吸烟，但是坐在对面的旅客提醒他们这是无烟车厢

并忠告了他们吸烟的害处。文章一直很符合逻辑地进行，但是最后的结尾比较出人

意料。原来坐在对面的自称为医生的旅客竟是一位刚从精神病院逃出的患者。

二、试题详解

11、B 此题考查的是考生对文章信息的搜索。We were on our way back from a

camping holiday。说明作者刚刚结束露营回来，而露营一般都会联想到tent“帐篷”。Ａ项on a boat“在船上”，Ｃ项on a farm“在农场上”，D项with an aunt “与阿姨一起”，这三项在文章中都没有体现。

12、A 本题考查的是对词义的理解。We had lived rough for over a fortnight。Fortnight意思是两周。Over,“超过”，超过两周，所以应选A, more than two weeks.

13、D。倒数第二行说：He left his newspaper behind him.. A. threw his newspaper away，“扔掉报纸”；B. offered them his newspaper “将报纸给了作者和他的朋友”；C. dropped his newspaper，“扔掉报纸”。

14、D。最后一段第一行说：“Just look at this”, remarked John, pointing to a photograph. “pointing to a photograph”, “指着报纸上的照片”。A. in a hurry，“匆忙地”；B. with great interest，“带着很大的兴趣”；C. to pass the time，“为了消磨时间”。这三项都与文章的意思不符，所以应选A.

15、C。此题旨在测试考生对单词的理解。最后一段第二行说：“Underneath the photograph was an account of a lunatic who had recently escaped.” Lunatic意为“精神病患者”。所以应选Ｃa madman

三、文章长难句分析

1、John had bought a packet of cigarettes just before we caught the train and he offered

me one as we settled ourselves in our compartment. 就在我们赶上火车之前约翰买了一包烟，等我们在车厢安顿好之后他递给我一支。Catch the train，赶上火车。Settle sb. in some places,在某处坐好，安顿好。

2、The man went on, in a rather more kindly way, to warn us against the dangers of

smoking. 这个男人以一种更和善的口吻坚持让我们警惕吸烟的危害。In a more kindly way,为插入语，修饰这个人说话的语气、态度。To warn us against the dangers of smoking是宾语成分。

四、核心词汇

Settle sb. in some places, 坐好、安顿好; live rough艰苦地度过; be opposite to在对面; lean across倾斜身体; no smoking compartment无烟车厢; warn against告捷、警告; eager to急于做某事; an account of，…的说明; pretend to假装

就在我们赶上火车之前约翰买了一包烟，等我们在车厢安顿好之后他递给我一支。我们正从假期露营回家的路上，经过了两个多星期的艰苦生活，现在一支香烟对我们来说都是一种奢侈。

我摸摸口袋，想找出火柴，但发现我没有。“我也没有”，约翰说。我们对面坐着一位先生，报纸遮住了他的脸。“对不起，先生”，约翰斜了斜身子，“您能借我们个火儿吗？”那位已过中年的先生放低报纸，我们看到他严肃的脸。“这是无烟车厢”，他说，并向我们指了指窗户上的标志。我们向他到了歉并收起了还未点着的香烟。这个男人以一种更和善的口吻坚持让我们警惕吸烟的危害。最后他总结道：“作为一名医生，我这么讲。”然后便继续看报。火车又经过了几站，那位先生便下车了，并留下了他的报纸。我们拿过报纸，急于了解在我们露营期间外面都发生了什么。“看看这个”，约翰指着一张照片对我说，“这不是刚才坐在我们对面的那个人吗？”照片底下有一行说明，这就是最近刚刚逃出来精神病患者。看来他喜欢假扮医生。

五、全文翻译

当你离开房间的时候，是不是忘记关灯和加热器了？在2040年，这种担心将不会有关系。他们会自动关掉并在你回来的时候再自动开启。感应器会检测到人的存在并把系统启动，而当人离开的时候它又将把系统关掉。

感应器通过家庭中枢电脑工作，他们要做的并不仅仅为你开灯关灯。他们将检测出有毛病的电器、管道或者电闸并加以隔离以防伤害到任何人；并警告你他们需要修理了。感应器将检测火灾情况，如果你不在家，电脑将会打电话给消防队。假设检测到有人闯入，感应器就会报警。这将不困难，因为外门的锁将是电子性质的。用你的个人卡将可以打开那些锁，这一个人卡是你用来消费，购物的那张卡，可能用到一个只有你知道的数码。

这一电脑不仅仅充当消防人员和警察的角色。它将是个艺人，而且生活中的大部分娱乐将直接来到你的家中。但是，到2040年娱乐将意味着更多的东西。一方面，你将会积极主动地参与而不仅仅是观看…

模拟试题二

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:

Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to dispose of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem—how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which utilizes not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bubs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no conventional fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.

Some parts of most modern buildings—theaters and offices as well as classrooms are more than amply heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redist ributing it is called “heat recovery.” A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from some buildings and re-use it in others.

Along the way, pitt has learned a great deal about some of its heat producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. (76) Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hardworking, overweight male genius.

1. Until recently, body heat has caused problems because it ______.

A. was difficult to collect

B. came in a variety of forms

C. was difficult to get rid of

D. tended to be absorbed by physical objects

2. Which of the following is true of the heating system of the Johnstown campus?

A. The heat is supplied by human bodies only.

B. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and other heatemitting objects.

C. The heat is supplied by both human bodies and conventional fuel.

D. The heat is supplied by human bodies, other heatemitting objects, and

conventional fuel.

3.The phrase “even in winter” (in line 8) most nearly means ______.

A. if the winter is especially warm

B. during all of the year except the winter

C. in the winter as well as in other seasons

D. during the evenings in the winter

4. The phrase “heat recovery” refers to a ______.

A. method of concealing the source of heat

B. special form of air conditioning

C. supplementary hot water system

D. way of reclaiming and re-using heat

5. According to the passage which of the following would produce the LEAST

amount of heat?

A. A fat female who studies hard.

B. A thin female who does not study.

C. A fat male who does not study.

D. A thin male who studies hard.

Passage 2

(77) Heredity(遗传) is not the only thing that influences our color. Where we live and how we live after we are born are important too. For instance, our genes influence how fat or thin we are. But our weight depends mainly upon how much we eat and how much exercise we get. In the same way, our skin color depends to a large extent upon how much sunshine we get.

When summer arrives and light-colored people go to the beaches, some will tan darkly, some will tan lightly and few will not tan at all. Each one has inherited a different ability to tan, but the differences do not appear until the conditions are right. An outdoor man will soon become pale if he changes to an indoor job, while a desk clerk will take on tan after a short vacation in the sun.

Sometimes people decide that being tanned is better than being pale. Sometimes they decide the opposite.

Centuries ago, most of the people in Europe were peasants and they had to work in the fields all day. Noblemen, on the other hand, did not have to work. They stayed indoors and remained pale. You could always tell a nobleman from a peasant because a peasant had a tan. As a result, a shin so pale that the veins (血管) showed was considered a mark of great beauty.

During the Industrial Revolution things changed. Farmers left their fields and went to work in factories, mines and mills. Working for long hours in dimly-lit factories and mines made their skins pale. (78) Wealthy people, however, could afford to travel so sunny countries. They had the leisure to lie around on the beaches and get tan. Having a tan became a sign of wealth.

In Western Europe and North America pale skin is no longer desirable. Instead of bleaching themselves white with lemon juice, many women spend their time under a sun-lamp. The desire for a quick tan has led to the invention of pills and lotions（涂剂）that darken the skin artificially without exposure to sunlight. These pills and lotions can be bought by anyone at any drugstore. A rich man can spend hundreds of dollars on a vacation in the sunny West Indies and get his suntan there. But his lowest-paid clerk can have what looks like the same tan out of a bottle for a few cents.

6.Besides genes, our skin color has much to do with __________.

A. exercise

B. weight

C. food

D. sunshine

7.When summer comes and the light-colored people go to the beaches, _____.

A. all of them will tan darkly

B. few of them will tan darkly

C. many of them will not tan at all

D. some of them will not tan at all

8.Centuries ago in Europe, it was considered of great beauty to have _____.

A. pale skin

B. light-colored skin

C. dark-colored skin

D. a suntan

9.During the Industrial Revolution people began to like to have a tan because it was a

sign of _______.

A. good health

B. great strength

C. wealth

D. youth

10.Pills and lotions have been invented in Western Europe and North America

_______.

A. to protect people from sunburn

B. to make people look wealthy

C. to smooth people’s skin

D. to help people to have a quick tan

Part Ⅰ Reading Comprehension (30%)

Passage 1

一、文章大意和总体结构分析

这篇文章，向我们介绍了一种全新的能量利用方式，收集人体热能用于供热。在大力提倡环保的当今社会，这种能源的回收再利用意义重大，这篇文章开阔了学生的视野。

文章的开头作者便提出身体热能这个人人皆知的概念，虽然我们知道身体会排除热量，但是却从未想过去利用这些热量。第二句作者便将读者带入一个全新的视角，即如何在生活中利用这些热量。匹兹堡大学的例子很好地证明了人体热量的利用价值。

接下来，作者比较详细地介绍了这种利用人体热量的系统，即热量回收再利用，并

指出已经有一些大楼正在利用这种自然、环保的资源。

最后一段，作者向我们介绍了一项有趣的研究成果，即身体强壮、学习刻苦的男性会排放出更多的热量。

二、试题详解

1．C。答案是开头的第二句：The usual problem is how to dispose of it。Dispose of “处理解决”。

2．B。答案在第一段的第三句中。他们设计了一种收集系统，它不但利用身体的热，还收集由灯泡、冰箱等散发出来的热。有了这两种热能，作者指出在校园中已无需任何conventional fuel

3．C。第二段中说：大多数现代化的大楼有些部分—戏院、办公室以及教室是用人体和灯光的热来供热的，有时候甚至在冬天的空调也是由它们来供热。Even意为“甚至”。

4．D.回收再利用热能。此题考察学生对全文的总结能力，以及reclaim和re-use的词义。

5．B。最后一段倒数第二句说：男学生发出的热量比女生发出的热量多，学生体重越重产生的热量越多。学习刻苦的比学习不刻苦的产生的热量多。所以最瘦的女生产生的热量最少。

三、文章长难句分析

Male students emit more heat than female students, and the larger a student, the more heat he produces. 男学生散发的热量多于女学生，并且身体体积越大，产生的热量就越多。

Emit排放、散发。The more…, the more…,为固定句式，意为“越…，越…”。

四、核心词汇

no matter无论；gives off散发；conventional fuel常规燃料；heat recovery热能回收；a great

deal 大量；the more…, the more…越…，越…

五、全文翻译

任何人，无论他在做什么，身体都会散发出热量。问题是，如何释放这些热量。但是匹兹堡大学约翰斯顿校区的老师却在思考相反的问题—如何收集身体热量。他们设计了一套系统，不但收集体内的热，还收集其他一些物品，像是灯泡和冰箱散发的热量。这套系统运行的非常成功，校区内的六座楼只靠收集起的热能就能很好地运转工作。

现代化的大楼，无论是剧院、办公楼还是教室是用人体和灯光的热来供热的，有时候甚至在冬天的空调也是由它们来供热。这种收集热能并将它们重新分配的技术叫做“热能回收再利用”。一些现代化的大楼回收热能，但是约翰斯顿校区的系统是第一次实现在一个楼中回收热能在把这些热能供应给其他楼宇。

皮特从这些热能制造者身上学到了很多。一个学生学习越努力，他散发的热能就越多。男学生散发的热量多于女学生，并且身体体积越大，产生的热量就越多。这样说来，我们可以认为约翰斯顿校区生产最多体热的是那些身体强壮甚至超重、学习刻苦的男性天才。

一文章总体结构分析

第一段介绍了我们肤色并不受仅受遗传因素的影响，它还在很大程度上受到阳光照射强度的影响；第二段采用对比的方法进一步说明了肤色在很大程度上受日照强度的影响；第三段作为过渡段落；第四、五段按历史演进的顺序介绍了工业革命以前

的几个世纪中欧洲人以皮肤苍白为美，而工业革命后他们却把棕褐色的肤色看成是

财富的象征；最后一段则说在西欧和北美，白肤色并不是合意的，相反无论穷人还

是富人均可以通过各自可行的方式使自己的肤色变成棕褐色。

五、全文翻译

遗传基因不是影响我们肤色的唯一因素。一个人的出生地以及他出生后的居住

地同样是重要因素。比方说，基因会对我们多胖或多瘦造成影响。但是，体重最主

要还是取决于进食量与运动的多少。同样，肤色在很大程度上取决于我们接受日晒

的多少。

夏天来临，浅肤色的人们来到海边接受日晒，有些人的皮肤会变成很深的棕褐色，

有些人是轻微的棕色，而有些人的肤色一点也没有变暗。每个人肤色抵抗日晒的能

力不同，但这些不同只有在时机正确时才得以显现。一位室外工作者如果换为室内

工作，它的皮肤将很快变白；而一位办公室职员将在短暂的沐浴阳光的旅行后变

黑。

有时人们认为被晒成棕褐色的皮肤好过“苍白”的皮肤，但有时他们又有相反

的看法。

几个世纪之前，欧洲大部分的人民都是农民并要整日劳作于田间。而另一方面，贵

族却不需要工作。他们整天呆在室内，肤色一直很白。你很容易便可区分贵族和农民，因为农民一般都会被晒黑。所以，一支苍白的可以显现血管的手臂被认为是美丽的标志。

这种情况在工业革命时期有所改变。农民离开土地，来到工厂、煤矿和磨房。长时间在灯光昏暗的工厂和煤矿工作使他们的皮肤变得苍白。然而，富人可以经常到阳光充足的国家旅行。他们有足够的闲暇，可以躺在海岸，接受阳光的沐浴。接受日晒成为了财富的象征。

在西欧和北美，苍白的肤色不再受到推崇。女人们不再为了变白而浸泡于柠檬汁中。相反，她们花很长时间呆在太阳灯下。快速改变肤色的愿望促进了一些药丸和涂剂的创造，无需暴露于太阳光下，你的肤色可以人工变暗。任何人在任何药店都可以买到这些药丸和涂剂。有钱人可以花几百美元到西印度群岛旅行，接受日光照射而使皮肤变暗。但他的工资最低的职员只要去药店花上几美分，也可以得到同样效果的肤色。

我通常不会丢东西，尤其是对于钱我很小心。所以当那天我摸我的钱包而发现它不在口袋里时，我十分惊讶。开始，我以为是落在了家里。之后我想起来我还掏出来付了车钱，所以我肯定在我走进饭店之前它还在我身上。我想是不是有可能在我吃晚饭的时候它从口袋里滑了出去。想到这里，我返回到刚刚坐的位子。不巧的是，当时有几个人正坐在那里用餐，所以我叫来服务生向他解释说几分钟前我在那张桌子吃饭时掉了钱包。我让服务生检查一下桌子，看看我的钱包是否掉在了地板上。就在服务生找的时候，饭店经理走上前来问我有什么事。我不想让更多人介入这件事，但我知道我必须拿回钱包。我告诉经理所发生的事情，他让我描述一下钱包，然后他建议我报警。我告诉他我尤其不想让警察介入。另外，我赶时间，因为我已经和我的医生约好了几分钟后见面。我向他解释到我此刻最大的麻烦是我怎么付帐。他说不要担心这个，他让我写下我的名字和地址，然后说他可以把帐单寄给我。

一、文章翻译

朋友好于任何一笔财富，但在某些情况下，却比毒药还可怕。以上两种论断看似矛盾、有悖于常理，但可以做如下解释。后一种情况指的是带我们误入歧途的损友，而前一种指的是把我们往好的方向推进的好朋友。

我理想中的朋友是那种展现良好素质的好朋友。他没有不良嗜好，像是吸烟或酗酒。他生活节俭、学习刻苦并且从不浪费宝贵的时间。在家中，他孝敬父母、爱护兄弟；在学校，尊敬老师、真诚待人。他从不说别人的坏话或自吹自擂。总体说来，它拥有比我强的任何优点。他是我的榜样，有他的指导，我不会犯错。在他的帮助下，我可以克服任何困难。

确实，如果有这样一位朋友，任何苦难对我来说都不将可怕，我将永远不知道“失败”意味着什么。

模拟试题三

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:

Many a young person tells me he wants to be a writer.(76) I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer’ and writing. In most cases these individuals are dreaming of wealth and fame, not the long hour alone at a typewriter. “You’ve got to want to write,” I say to them, “not want to be a writer”.

The reality is that writing is a lonely, private and poor-paying affair. For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. When I left a 20-year career in the U.S. Coast Guard to become a freelance(自由栏目)writer, I had no prospects at all. What I did have was a friend who found me my room in a New York apartment building. It didn’t even matter that it was cold and had no bathroom. I immediately bought a used manual typewriter and felt like a genuine writer.

After a year or so, however, I still hadn’t gotten a break and began to doubt myself. It was so hard to sell a story that I barely made enough to eat. But I knew I wanted to write, I had dreamed about it for years. I wasn’t going to be one of those people who die wondering: What if ? (77 ) I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty and fear of failure. This is the shadowland of hope, and anyone with a dream must learn to live there.

1.The passage is meant to ______.

A.warn young people of the hardships that a successful writer has to experience

B.advise young people to give up their idea of becoming a professional writer

C.show young people it’s unrealistic for a writer to pursue wealth and fame

D.encourage young people to pursue a writing career

2.What can be concluded from the passage?

A.Genuine writers often find their work interesting and rewarding.

B. A writer’s success depends on luck rather than on efforts.

C.Famous writers usually live in poverty and isolation.

D.The chances for writer to become successful are small

3.Why did the author begin to doubt himself after the first year of his writing career?

A.He wasn’t able to produce a single book.

B.He hadn’t seen aching for the better.

C.He wasn’t able to have a rest for a whole year.

D.He though that he lacked imagination.

4.“…people who die wondering: What if ?”(Lin4-5, Para-3) refers to “those _____”.

A.who think too much of the dark side of life

B.who regret giving up their career halfway

C.who think a lot without making a decision

D.who are full of imagination even upon death

5.“Shadowland” in the last sentence refers to _____.

A.the wonderland on often dreams about

B.the bright future that one is looking forward to

C.the state of uncertainty before one’s final goal is reached

D. a world that exists only in one’s imagination

Passage 2

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

Telecommuting—substituting the computer for the trip to the job—has been hailed as a solution to all kinds of problems related to office work. (78) For workers it promises freedom from the office, less time wasted in traffic, and help with childcare conflicts. For management, telecommuting helps keep high performers on board, minimizes lateness and absenteeism by eliminating commuters (经常乘火车往返者)，allows periods of solitude (独处) for high concentration tasks, and provides scheduling flexibility. In some areas, such as Southern California and Seattle, Washington, local governments are encouraging companies to start telecommuting programs in order to reduce rush-hour traffic and improve air quality.

But these benefits do not come easily. Marking a telecommuting program work requires careful planning and an understanding of the differences between telecommuting realities and popular images. Many workers are seduced by rosy illusions of life as a telecommuter. A computer programmer from New York City moves to the quiet Adirondack Mountains and stays in contact with her office via computer. A manager comes in to his office three days a week and works at home the other two. An accountant stays home to care for her sick child; she child; she hooks up her telephone modern connections and does office work between calls to the doctor.

These are powerful images, but they are a limited reflection of reality. (79) Telecommuting workers soon learn that it is almost impossible to concentrate on work and care for a young child at the same time. Before a certain age, young children cannot recognize, much less respect, the necessary boundaries between work and family. Additional child support is necessary if the parent is to get any work done.

Management, too, must separate the myth from the reaity. Although the media has paid a gr eat deal of attention to telecommuting, in most cases it is the employee’s situation,

not the availability of technology, that precipitates (加速……来临) a telecommuting arrangement.

That is partly why, despite the widespread press coverage, the number of companies with work-at-home programs or policy guidelines remains small.

6. What is the main subject of the passage?

A. Bussiness management policies.

B. Driving to work.

C. Extending the work place by means of computers.

D. Computers for child-care purposes.

7. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a problem for employers that is

potentially solved by telecommuting?

A. Employees’ lateness for work.

B. Employees’ absence from work.

C. Employees’ need for time alone to work intensively.

D. Employees’ confli cts with second jobs.

8. In which area does the local government encourage telecommuting programs

according to the passage?

A. New York City

B. Adirondack Mountains

C. Washington

D. New York State

9. Which of the following does the author mention as a possible disadvantage of

telecommuting?

A. Small children cannot understand the boundaries of work and play.

B. Computer technology is never advanced enough to accommodate the needs of

every situation.

C. Electrical malfunctions can destroy a project.

D. The worker often does not have all the needed resources at home.

10. Which of the following is example of telecommuting as described in the passage?

A. A scientist in a laboratory developing plans for a space station.

B. A technical writer sending via computer documents created at home.

C. A computer technician repairing an office computer network.

D. A teacher directing computer-assisted learning in a private school.

Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

To us it seems so natural to put up an umbrella to keep the water off when it rains. But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.

Nobody knows who first invented it, but the umbrella was used in very ancient times. Probably the first to use it were the Chinese, way back in the eleventh century B.C...

We know that the umbrella was also used in ancient Egypt and Babylon as a sunshade. And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East In ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.

In Europe, the Greeks were the first to use the umbrella as a sunshade. And the umbrella was in common use in ancient Greece. But it is believed that the first persons in Europe to use the umbrellas as protection against the rain were the ancient Romans.

During the Middle Ages, the use of the umbrella practically disappeared. Then it appeared again in Italy in 16th century. And again it became a symbol of power and authority.

Umbrellas have not changed much in style during all this time, though they have become much lighter in weight. (80)It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.

Thirty years ago, most teenagers had bicycles, but now they are comparatively rare. 56 , motor scooters (小型摩托车) are much more common, 57 , this may seem a sign of progress but 58 the change is not necessarily for the better. It is easy to see why young people prefer scooters. 59 , they are much faster and do not require much physical effort; 60 , you can take a passenger with you on the pillion (后座) seat behind; 61 , they give young people a feeling of independence, because they can travel further and impress their friends. 62 , the disadvantages are equally obvious, 63 first sight, scooters are more expensive to buy and to maintain, and 64 Those under 16 are not allowed to have them. 65 ,greater freedom brings danger because speed encourages young people to take risks and as a result scooters are involved 66 more accidents, and the accidents are 67 more serious. Bicycles are safer and easier to control. Years ago, teenagers had more experience with them because they 68 to ride as young children, and consequently knew what they were capable of. 69 , many young people overestimate what a scooter can do and pretend it has the power of a motor-cycle. 70 , the fact is that bicycles are not very safe, 71 ,in cities these days because there are more cars and drivers are not used to them and do not make allowances for them. 72 , those who are old enough to ride scooters naturally prefer them. Those who are too young or cannot afford to buy a scooter probably find bicycles slow and uncomfortable 73 , and riding bicycles requires 74 experience of traffic than before.

模拟试题三答案解析

Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)

Passage 1

一、文章大意及结构分析

这篇文章主要讲了成为作家的艰辛生活。在现当代，许多文学青年酷爱写作，梦想成为作家。这个工作名利双收。作者针对这一现象，以自己的亲身体验作为例子，来说明写作和成为作家的区别。成为作家就要适应孤独，要经历坎坷失败，而最后能成功的人也并不多。但作者说，这是他的梦想，他不会放弃，而要坚强的走下去。

二、试题详解

1、A. 这道题考察考生对文章的整体把握能力。作者在开头便点明写作和成为作家是不同的，指出很多年轻人的想法是不成熟的。接下来又以亲身经历说明成为作家的艰辛。

2、D. 一个作家成功的比率是非常小的。在文章的第二段中提到For every writer kissed by fortune there are thousands more whose longing is never rewarded. 虽然有一些可以得到财富，但上千的作家的努力却得不到回报。说明作家成功是非常困难的。

3、B. 作者在从事写作的第一年怀疑自己是应为他没有看到情况比一开始有所好转。

4、C. 因为这些人总去问what if，说明他们总是犹豫不决，对自己的未来举棋不定，做不出最终决定。

5、C. 这道题考察对词汇的理解。Shadowland是指一种在目标实现前的不确定状态。

三、文章长难句分析

1、I always encourage such people, but I also explain that there’s a big difference between “being a writer’ and writing. 我总是鼓励这些人，但我也会解释一下，写作和当作家是有很大不同的。这是一个转折句，用but相连。后面的句子是宾语从句，that后面的内容是explain的宾语。

2、I would keep putting my dream to the test even though it meant living with uncertainty

and fear of failure. 我仍然会把希望寄托在这次考验上，尽管这意味着面对不确定和对失利的害怕。这也是一个转折关系的句子，用even though连接，even though, 尽管。

四、核心词汇

in most cases, 在多数情况下；dream of, 梦想；free-lance writer, 自由栏目作者；

apartment building, 公寓楼；keep doing sth., 坚持做某事五、文章翻译

许多年轻人跟我说想成为作家。我总是鼓励这些人，但我也会解释一下，写作和当作家是有很大不同的。在多数情况下，这些年轻人梦想着财富与声望，而没有想到在打字机前度过的漫长而又孤独的时光。“你们只是想写作”，我告诉他们，“而不是想成为作家。”

事实上，写作是一项孤独、私密而又报酬很低的工作。虽然有一些可以得到财富，但上千的作家的努力却得不到回报。当我辞去从事了20年的美国海岸守卫队的工作而成为一名自由栏目的作家，我就变得没有前途了。我让一位朋友在纽约帮我找到一所公寓。我不在乎它既寒冷又没有浴室。我马上买了一台二手的打字机并感觉自己真正成了一名作家。

然而，一年之后，我仍得不到休息并开始怀疑自己。卖掉一个故事是如此困难以至于我的温饱都成了问题。但是我知道我想要写作，因为这是我多年来的梦想。有些人到死都会不断问自己“如果我…”，我是不会成为那种人的。我仍然会把希望寄托在这次考验上，尽管这意味着面对不确定和对失利的害怕。这是虚幻的理想世界，但每一个有梦想的人都要学会在那里生活。

Passage 2

一、文章大意和总体结构分析

这篇文章围绕着telecommuting, “远程办公”展开，向我们比较完整的介绍了这一全新概念。文章开头，坐着先介绍了远程办公的公众形象，即非常受到大家的欢迎，紧接着给出了一系列原因，比如说节约了路上的时间，解决了工作和家庭的冲突，减少了迟到和缺勤等。在第二段，作者笔锋一转，指出虽然院承办共有很多好处，但想要真正受益于这些好处并不容易。他指出远程办公的一些缺陷及局限性，并给出实例说明照顾孩子和在家中办公的矛盾。

第三段中，作者进一步指出远程办公的缺点，重点集中在工作和照顾孩子的冲突，并指出远程办公并不能解决这个冲突。

第四段，作者指出，远程办公的流行并不在于它自身技术力量的优势，而是宣传和许多员工的选择加快了它的传播速度。

最后，作为总结，作者指出以上的不足便是远程办公未能推广的原因。

二、试题详解

6．C。答案在第一段的第一句。telecommuting “远距离办公”，substitute A for B “以A 代替B”。本句意思是：远距离办公—以计算机代替外出去上班，已被人们称为解决各种与工作有关的热门话题。A. Business management policies.商业管理政策；B. Driving to work.开车去上班；D. Computers for child-care purposes.使用电脑照顾孩子，这三项都与提议不符。

7．D。前面三项都提到了，因此答案便是D，且文中从头到尾都未涉及。第一段第二句help with childcare conflicts证明了D, 第三句minimizes lateness and absenteeism证明了B,C.

8. C。答案在第一段的最后一句。In some areas, such as Southern California and Seattle, Washington, local governments…,只有Adirondack Mountains没有提到。

9．B。答案在倒数第二段。前面具体介绍了远程办公的好处，但在现实当中还是有限制的。比如一边工作一边照看小孩，注意力几乎不能集中。这就说明计算机技术永远不能足以先进得适应每一种情况的需要。A项在文中提出过，但这不是远程办公造成的缺陷。C,D两项在文中没有体现。

10．B.第二段第四句A computer programmer from New York City moves to the

quiet Adirondack Mountains and stays in contact with her office via computer.其他三项在文中没有体现。

三．文章长难句分析

1.For workers it promises freedom from the office, less time wasted in traffic, and help

with childcare conflicts. 对于员工来说，它意味着不用天天去办公室，浪费更少时间在交通上，还可以解决上班与照料孩子之间的矛盾。这句话的主语是it，也就是telecommuting,谓语动词有两个, promise的宾语为freedom from the office 及less time wasted in traffic, help的宾语为childcare conflicts.

2.Telecommuting workers soon learn that it is almost impossible to concentrate on work

and care for a young child at the same time. 在家上班的员工很快认识到他们几乎不可能同时专注于工作和照看孩子。此句为宾语从句，that后面都是learn的内容。It is almost impossible to …要做到什么是几乎不可能的。

三、核心词汇

Substitute sth. for sth. 以…取代…； a solution for解决…的方法；be seduced

by被…诱惑；concentrate on集中于；pay a great deal of attention投入大量

关注；press coverage新闻报道；

四、全文翻译

远程办公，以计算机代替外出去上班，已被人们称为解决各种与工作有关的热门话题。

对于员工来说，它意味着不用天天去办公室，浪费更少时间在交通上，还可以解决上班与照料孩子之间的矛盾。对于公司的管理而言，远程办公可以使表现良好的员工随时在线，因为没有了经常乘火车往返于工作的员工，迟到和旷工大大减少，并为需要高度集中的工作提供了独处解决的机会，使工作日程更加灵活。在一些地方，像是南加州、西雅图和华盛顿，当地政府鼓励公司采取远程办公以减少交通阻塞和改善空气质量。

但想受益于远程办公并不是那么简单。在使用远程办公前，必须做出详细的计划，并且了解远程办公的实质和流行的外表之间的区别。许多职员都沉迷于对远程办公人员生活的美好幻想中。一位计算机程序师从纽约搬到静谧的阿第伦达克山区，并依靠电脑与公司保持联系。一位经理每周三天去公司办公，其余两天则在家工作。一位会计则在家照料她生病的孩子，一面工作一面给医生打电话。

远程办公给我们展示了有利的一面，但反馈出的现实情况则很有限。在家上班的员工很快认识到他们几乎不可能同时专注于工作和照看孩子。在一定年龄之前，孩子是不可能意识到工作与家庭分界，所以缺少对父母工作的尊重。家长想要在家完成工作，还需别人来照料孩子。

在管理方面，让我们也从远程办公的神话回到现实之中。虽然媒体大力宣传远程办公，但加速远程办公的来临与利用主要是员工的功劳而非它本身的技术力量。

这也在一定程度上说明了，为什么在很大宣传力度下，真正使用远程办公，让员工在家工作的公司仍是很少。

Passage 3

一、文章结构总体分析

这篇小短文主要阐述的是伞的历史。从伞最初用来遮阳说起，后阐述了伞在不同国家的最早的使用及所代表的一些含义。

二、试题具体分析

11【答案】B 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。“But actually the umbrella was not invented as protection against rain. It was first used as a shade against the sun.”根据第一段最后一句话可以得知。

12【答案】C 本题考查的是考生对具体句子的理解。“Probably the first to use it were the Chinese,”根据第二段可直接得知。

13【答案】C 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。“In the Far East In ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.”根据第三段最后一句可得知。

14【答案】D 本题考查的是考生对全文的把握以及关键点的理解。“And there was a strange thing connected with its use; it became a symbol of honor and authority. In the Far East In ancient times, the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office.”可知，雨伞在古代曾经是权利和荣耀的象征，所以只能由皇族和高官持有，故此项不对。

15【答案】B 本题考查的是考生对全文意思的把握。通读全文可知，文章讲雨伞的不同角色，包括遮阳，遮雨，在古代还能象征权利和荣誉，所以B能最好地概括全文，其他项都太过片面。

三、文章长难句分析与佳句赏析

这篇短文的句子以简单句为主，所以不是很难以理解。

It wasn’t until the twentieth century that women’s umbrellas began to be made in a variety of colors.直译：直到20世纪妇女们使用的伞的颜色才丰富起来。

结构分析：这是文章中一个较为典型的句型。It is …that 为强调句型。Not until 直到……才，对这一结构进行强调为it is not until…that. 在这里，原句为women’s umbrellas didn’t begin to be made in a variety of colors until the twentieth century.

四、核心词汇

keep off 避开，不接近；ancient古代的；sunshade 遮阳；authority 权威，权势；Greece希腊；disappear消失；

五、全文翻译

对我们来说，下雨的时候撑伞是很平常的事情。但实际上，伞最初不是用来防雨的。起先是用来遮阳的。

没有人知道是谁发明了雨伞，只知道伞在古代就有。大概是中国人最开始使用伞吧，那是在公元前11世纪的时候。

我们知道伞在古埃及和古巴比伦用作遮阳。而且代表着荣耀和权势。在古代的远东地区，伞只允许皇族和地位显赫的人使用。

在欧洲，希腊人首先使用伞。伞在当地很普遍。但是欧洲最早使用伞的是古罗马人，用于遮雨。

在中世纪人们不再使用伞。直到16世纪在意大利出现，再一次成为权势的象征。

伞在样式上一直没有太多的变化，只是变轻了不少。直到20世纪妇女们使用的伞的颜色才丰富起来。

词汇语法

16. 【答案】B with a view to doing sth.表示“打算做某事；为了做某事”。

17. 【答案】 B no matter who=whoever。选项A中no matter 和 whoever重复了；whomever是错词；D项倒装错误。从局中不倒装。

18. 【答案】B in detail: 详细地。是固定用法。

Or you will get inebriated too quickly. Of course, most college students shouldn’t be drinking at all, but we know from the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism that close to 60 percent of college students aged 18 to 22 do consume alcohol, which makes harm-reducing approaches important. Unfortunately, campus authorities and researchers are reporting a practice that turns the full-stomach drinking strategy on its head: rather than filling up before a night of partying, significant numbers of students refuse to eat all day before consuming alcohol. This is a high-risk behavior called “drunkorexia,” which is one part eating disorder, one part alcoholism—a very dangerous combination for college-age students. The term drunkorexia, which can also include excessive exercise or purging before consuming alcohol, was coined about 10 years ago, and it started showing up in medical research around 2012. Drunkorexia addresses the need to be the life of the party while staying extremely thin, pointing to a flawed mind-set about body image and alcoholism among college students, mostly women. Imagine this scenario: A femal e college freshman doesn’t eat anything all day, exercises on an empty stomach, then downs five shots of tequila in less than two hours. Because there’s no food in her system to help slow the absorption of alcohol, those shots affect her rapidly, leading to inebriation and possibly

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.

Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers voluntarily make their phones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence. A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carriage by accident and are not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore. The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent signs added to show exactly what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls. Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surely dissuade(劝阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring and enforcement. Another way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengers－in effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one would dissuade many of those who don’t value a peaceful ride. Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise can
