2010年11月6日成人学位英语考试真题A卷

北京地区成人本科学士学位英语统一考试(A)2010.11.06 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: Archaeology, like many academic words, comes from Greek and means, more or less, “the study of old things”.So, it is really a part of the study of history.However, most historians use paper evidence, such as letters, paintings and photographs，but archaeologists(考古学家)learn from the objects left behind by the humans of long ago.Normally, these are the hard materials that don't break down or disappear very quickly－things like human bones and objects made from stone and metal.It is very unusual to find anything more than the hard evidence of history--normally, the bacteria(细菌)in the air eat away at soft materials, like bodies, clothes and things made of wood.Occasionally, things are different.In 1984, two men made an amazing discovery while working in a bog called Lindow Moss, in the north of England.A bog is a very wet area of earth, with a lot of plants growing in it.It can be like a very big and very thick vegetable soup－walk in the wrong place and you can sink and disappear forever.The men were working when one of them saw something sticking out－a human foot!Naturally, the men called the police，who then found the rest of the body.Was it a case of murder? Possibly--but it was a death nearly two thousand years old.The two men had found a body from the time of the Roman invasion of Britain.Despite being so old, this body had skin, muscles, hair and internal organs－the scientists who examined him were able to look inside the man's stomach and find the food that he had eaten for his last meal!

Why was this man so well preserved?(76)It was because he was in a very watery environment, safe fi:om the bacteria that need oxygen to live.Also, the water in the bog was very acidic.The acid preserved the man's skin in the way that animal skin is preserved for leather coats and shoes.How did he die? Understandably, archaeologists and other scientists wanted to know more about the person that they called,“Lindow Man”.(77)His hands and fingernails suggested that he hadn't done heavy manual work in his life－he could have been a rich man.They found that he hadn't died by accident.The archaeologists believe that he was sacrificed to three different gods.1.Which language does the word “archaeology”come from?

A.French.B.Greek.C.Roman.D.German.2.The word “these” in the first paragraph refers to_______.A.letters

B.photographs

C.paintings

D.objects 3.Which of the following helped to preserve“Lindow Man”?

A.Ice and Iow temperature.B.Bacteria and oxygen.C.Soil and energy.D.Acid and water.4.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.“Lindow Man”was named after the person who first found him.B.Historians usually use paper evidence, while archaeologists use hard evidence.C.“Lindow Man” was found by two archaeologists in the south of England.D.“Lindow Man”was good at manual work.5.Which is the best title for the passage?

A.What Is Archaeology?

B.Archaeology and History

C.An Amazing Archaeological Discovery

D.The Death of“Lindow Man”

Passage 2 Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

The city has always been an engine of intellectual life, from the 18th-century cafes of London, where citizens gathered to discuss chemistry and politics, to the Left Bank bars of modern Paris, where Picasso talked about modem art.Without the metropolis, we might not have had the great art of Shakespeare.And yet, city life isn't easy.Now scientists have begun to examine how the city affects the brain, and the results are depressing.Just being in an urban environment, they have found, impairs(损害)our basic mental processes.(78)After spending a few minutes on a crowded city street, the brain is less able to hold things in memory, and suffers from reduced self-control.While it's long been recognized that city life is exhausting, this new research suggests that cities actually dull our thinking, sometimes dramatically so.One of the main forces at work is a complete lack of nature, which is surprisingly beneficial for the brain.Studies have demonstrated, for instance, that hospital patients recover more quickly when they can see trees from their windows, and that women living in public housing are better able to focus when their apartments overlook a lawn.Even these glimpses of nature improve brain performance, it seems, because they provide a mental break from the urban life.This research arrives just as humans cross an important milestone(里程碑).For the first time in history, the majority of people live in cities.Instead of inhabiting wide-open spaces, we're crowded into concrete jungles, surrounded by traffic and millions of Strangers.In recent years, it's become clear that such unnatural surroundings have important implications for our mental and physical health, and can powerfully alter how we think.This research is also leading some scientists to dabble(涉足)in urban design, as they look for ways to make the city less damaging to the brain.(79)The good news is that even slight alterations, such as planting more trees in the inner city or creating urban parks with a greater variety of plants, can significantly reduce the negative side effects of city life.The mind needs nature, and even a little bit can be a big help.6.Which of the following is the main idea of this passage?

A.The city inspires talented people.B.The city hurts your brain.C.The city has many pleasures and benefits.D.The city seriously affects the natural balance.7.The word “metropolis” in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to_______.A.citizen

B.nature

C.city

D.stress 8.People have just come to realize that_______.A.human attention is a scarce resource

B.city life can make people very tired

C.the city is an engine of intellectual life

D.an urban environment is damaging to the brain 9.What is the factor mentioned in the third paragraph that helps the hospital patients recover more quickly?

A.Nature.B.Better treatment.C.Experienced doctors.D.Good medicine.10.According to the passage, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.Different aspects(方面)of an urban environment, such as the crowded streets, can lead to an increase in self-control.B.Small changes in urban design, cannot reduce the negative side effects of city life.C.For the first time in history, the earth's population is more urban than rural.D.A walk down a busy city street will improve brain performance.Passage 3 Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

Breastfeeding(母乳喂养)for a month or longer appears to reduce a woman's risk of getting diabetes(糖病)later in life, according to a new study.The breastfeeding and diabetes link has been reported in other studies, according to researcher Eleanor Schwarz.Yet, her study makes the link easier to believe.Her study is published in a journal of medicine in America.Schwarz and her colleagues looked at data about breastfeeding practices.They evaluated data on 2,233 women f~om Califomia.Of those, 405 were not mothers, 1,125 were mothers who breastfed for at least a month, and 703 were mothers who had never breastfed.They were 40 to 78 years old.According to Schwarz's study, the risk of getting a diagnosis(诊断)of Type 2 diabetes for women who breastfed all their children for a month or longer was similar to that of women who had not given birth.But mothers who had never breastfed were nearly twice as likely to develop diabetes as women who had never given birth.Mothers who never breastfed were about 1.4 times as likely to develop diabetes as women who breastfed for one to three months, Schwarz found.While one month of breastfeeding appears to make a difference, Schwarz says, even longer is better.(80)“Previous studies have shown the longer the mom breastfeeds, the more benefit for her body.” Many experts recommend breastfeeding for six months and continuing for a year, she says.The diabetes-breastfeeding link is probably explained by belly fat.Mothers, who don't breastfeed, as they get older, may have more belly fat, as breastfeeding helps new mothers take off weight.“Belly fat increases the risk of diabetes as you get older,” she says.The finding isn't surprising at all, says Kimberly Gregory.She often gives advice to women who get diabetes(occurring during pregnancy(怀孕))that they are at risk for later getting Type 2 diabetes and suggests they breastfeed.The new findings will probably inspire Gregory to add to the-advice she gives moms-to-be about the benefits of breastfeeding.She often focuses on the benefits to the baby.11.According to the first paragraph, which of the following statements is TRUE?

A.About two thousand and two hundred old women took part in the study.B.Eleanor Schwarz's research program was about men and women who suffered from diabetes.C.Over one fifths of the women never got married.D.Eleanor Schwarz's results seem more reliable.12.According to Schwarz's findings, who are more likely to get diabetes later in life?

A.Those mothers who had never breastfed.B.Those mothers who never gave birth.C.Those mothers who breastfed for a month.D.Those mothers who breastfed for six months.13.Which of the following statements would Schwarz agree with?

A.Breastfeeding is not advisable because it is not good for a mom to keep a good shape.B.Breastfeeding can greatly reduce a mother's chances of getting all kinds of serious disease.C.Breastfeeding for a month is highly recommended: the longer, the better.D.Breastfeeding for a month or longer makes babies smarter.14.What does the author mean by “moms-to-be” in the last paragraph?

A.Women who are pregnant, especially for the first time.B.Women who dream of having babiesfor the first time.C.Women who already have children.D.Women who have just got babies for the first time.15.Which of the following is an appropriate title for this passage?

A.Breasffeeding May Enhance Babies' Chances of Survival

B.Breasffeeding May Lower Moms' Diabetes Risk

C.Breasffeeding May Become Very Fashioaable in Near Future

D.Breasffeeding May Help Women Lose Weight

2004年11月北京成人本科学位英语考试A卷

Part I Reading Comprehension Passage 1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem”.To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much.But scientific evidence does little to support this idea.Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they ate more food.In those days people worked harder physically, walked more, used machines much less and didn't watch television.Several modem studies, moreover, have shown that fatter people do not eat more on the average than thinner people.In fact, some investigations, such as the 1979 study of 3, 545 London office workers, report that, on balance, fat people eat less than slimmer people.Studies show that slim people are more active than fat people.A study by a research group at Stanford University School of Medicine found the following interesting facts:

The more the men ran, the more body fat they lost.The more they ran, the greater amount of food they ate.(76)[Thus, those who ran the most ate the most, yet lost the greatest amount of body fat.]

1.The physical problem that many adult Americans have is that__________.A.they are too slim B.they work too hard

C.they are too fat D.they lose too much body fat

2.According to the article, given 500 adult Americans, __________ people will have a “weight problem”.A.30 B.50 C.100 D.150

3.Is there any scientific evidence to support that eating too much is the cause of a “weight problem”?

A.Yes, there is plenty of evidence.B.Of course, there is some evidence to show this is true.C.There is hardly any scientific evidence to support this.D.We don't know because the information is not given.4.In comparison with the adult American population today, the Americans of the 1910s __________.A.ate more food and had more physical activities B.ate less food but had more activities

C.ate less food and had less physical exercise D.had more weight problems

5.Modem scientific researches have reported to us that__________.A.fat people eat less food and are less active

B.fat people eat more food than slim people and are more active

C.fat people eat more food than slim people but are less active D.thin people run less, but have greater increase in food intake Passage 2

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

By adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their children's language development.It is surprising but true.(77)[How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children's language development.If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the child's language skills increase].A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents.Half of the children participated in the experimental study;the other half acted as the control group.In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions.For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?” rather than “Is the doggie running away?”(78)[The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers].At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5.5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary.Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.6.Which of the following can be inferred from the passage? A.Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.B.Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.C.Active children should read more and be given more attention.D.Verbal ability can easily be developed with proper methods.7.What does “it” in line 2 can most probably be replaced by? A.Parents increasing children's language development B.Reading techniques being simple C.Parents reading to children

D.Children's intelligence development

8.According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask children about?

A.Do you see the elephant? B.Is the elephant in the cage? C.What animals do you like? D.Shall we go to the zoo?

9.The difference between the control group and the experimental group was __________.A.the training that parents received

B.the age of the children 可以看出，父母接受了两个小时的培训，而控制组的父母并没有此培训。

C.tile books that were read D.the number of the children

10.The best conclusion we can draw from the passage is that __________.A.parents should be trained to read to their children

B.the more children read, the more intelligent they will become C.children's language skills increase when they are required to respond actively D.children who read actively seem six months older Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

(79)[The agriculture revolution in the nineteenth century involved two things: the invention of labor-saving machinery and the development of scientific agriculture.] Labor-saving machinery naturally appeared first where labor was scarce.“In Europe”, said Thomas Jefferson, “the object is to make the most of their land, labor being sufficient;here it is to make the most of our labor, land being abundant”.It was in America, therefore, that the great advances in nineteenth-century agricultural machinery first came.At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude(粗糙的)plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.(80)[By 1860，most of the machinery in use today had been designed in an early form].The most important of the early inventions was the iron plow.As early as 1890 Charles Newbolt of New Jersey had been working on the idea of a cast-iron plow and spent his entire fortune in introducing his invention.The farmers, however, would home none of it, claiming that the iron poisoned the soil and made the weeds grow.Nevertheless, many people devoted their attention to the plow, until in 1869, James Oliver of South Bend，Indiana, turned out the first chilled-steel plow.11.The word “here”(Para.1, Line 6)refers to__________.A.Europe B.America C.New Jersey D.Indiana

12.Which of the following statement is NOT true?

A.The need for labor helped the invention of machinery in America.B.The farmer rejected Charles Newbolt's plow for fear of ruin of their fields.C.Both Europe and America had great need for farm machinery.D.It was in Indiana that the first chilled-steel plow was produced.13.The passage is mainly about__________.A.the agriculture revolution

B.the invention of labor-saving machinery C.the development of scientific agriculture D.the farming machinery in America

14.At the opening of the nineteenth-century, farmers in America__________.A.preferred light tools

B.were extremely self-reliant(自给的)C.had many tools D.had very few tools

15.It is implied but not stated in the passage that __________.A.there was a shortage of workers on American farms

B.the most important of the early invention was the iron plow C.after 1869, many people devoted their attention to the plow D.Charles Newbolt had made a fortune by his cast-iron plow Part II Vocabulary and Structure

[文章大意及重要词汇] 美国30%的成人（adult）都有“体重（weight）问题”。大多数人认为造成这一现象的原因很明显（obvious）他们吃的太胖了。但是这一观点却没有足够的科学证据（evidence）来支撑。回顾一下20世纪处的美国，当时的人们普遍比现在的人瘦，吃得比现在的人多，同时他们的体力劳动（physically）很辛苦、经常走路、很少使用机器、也不看电视。

现在许多研究也表明。从整体上（average）来看胖人比瘦人吃得要少。而1979年对伦敦3545个办公室人员的调查也恰恰证实了这一观点。

研究同时也表明瘦人比胖人运动量更大。美国斯坦福大学医学院的研究人员发现了下列有趣的事实：

运动量越大的人，消耗的体内脂肪越多。运动量越大的人，饭量越大。因此（Thus），运动量最大的人吃得也最多，但同时消耗的体内脂肪也最多。1.答案：C 细节题。答案在第一段第一句话,“In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem许多美国成年人身体问题是他们太胖了”。2.答案：D计算题。答案在第一段第三句话,“In the United States, 30 percent of the adult population has a “weight problem””做一个简单的剩法就得到答案。

3.答案：C细节题。答案在第一段第二和第三句话,“To many people, the cause is obvious: they eat too much But scientific evidence does little to support this idea因此几乎没有任何科学家依据证明这一点”。

4.答案：A细节题。答案在第一段。“Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they [ate more food.] In those days people [worked harder physically]” 题干中[worked harder physically]相当于答案中had more physical activities。

5.答案：A细节题。答案在第一段。“Going back to the America of the 1910s, we find that people were thinner than today, yet they [ate more food.] In those days people [worked harder physically]” 题干中[worked harder physically]相当于答案中had more physical activities。

[文章大意及重要词汇] 父母通过有技巧（techniques）的朗读可以让孩子的语言能力得到迅速的发展（development）。这一事实虽令人吃惊，但却是真实的。父母和孩子谈话的方式对孩子的语言能力发展影响很大（makes a big difference）。如果父母鼓励孩子对其所朗读的 内容做出积极反应（respond），孩子的语言能力就会有很大的提高。

我们在30个三岁的孩子和他们的父母中间做了一个实验。一半孩子属于实验（experimental）组，另一半是控制组。实验组的家长接受了一个两个小时的培训，要求他们问孩子们开放式的问题而不能问用“是”或者“不是”来回答的简单问题，如何引导他们思考其他选择的可能性以及如何表扬（praise）孩子的正确选择。

实验初期，孩子的语言能力发展并没有明显区别。一个月后，实验组的孩子们比控制组的孩子在语言表达和词汇量方面领先5.5个月。9个月后，实验组的孩子们仍然在这些方面比控制组的孩子领先（advance）6个月。6.答案：D 推断题。答案在第一段。

7.答案：A 词义题。根据上下文，it指父母能提高孩子的语言能力。

8.答案：C推断题，答案在第二段，可以看出，父母应该问一些开放性的问题，而不是只需回答是或不是问题。

9.答案：A细节题，答案在第二段，区别在于实验组里的家长接受了培训。10.答案：C推断题，答案在第一段最后一句。选项C即为该句的同义改写。[文章大意及重要词汇] 19世纪的农业（agriculture）革命（revolution）包括两个部分：省力农业机械（machinery）的发明（invention）和科学农业的发展。省力机械通常在劳动力缺乏的地方首先出现。托马斯·杰弗逊说过“在欧洲是为了充分利用土地，那里劳动力非常充足（sufficient）；而这里则是为了充分利用劳动力，土地非常充足”。因此，19世纪农业机械首先在美国取得了巨大进步（advances）。19世纪处了粗糙的犁以外，农民几乎可以肩背所有存在的农具。到1860年人们就已经设计出许多今天仍在使用的机器的雏形。铁犁是早期发明中最重要的。早在1980年新泽西州的查尔斯· 纽波特已经开始致力于锻铁犁的研究，并把他的全部财富投入到其他发明的推广应用。但是，当时的农民都拒绝采用，他们认为铁会毒害（poison）土壤和导致杂草丛生。尽管如此（nevertheless），许多人仍然花大量的精力（attention）致力于研究，直到1869年，印第安纳州南本德市的詹姆斯·奥利弗研制出第一用冷却钢制造的犁。

11.答案：B语义题。根据上下文，这里的“here”指的是美国。

12.答案：C判断题。可采用逐项排除法，首先B和D比较容易定位，阅读原文后，肯定这两个选项是正确，接着排除A和C中的一个，根据题意可知A是正确的，C是错误的。

13.答案：B主旨题。文章的中心思想应当是：“节省劳动力的机器的发明”。

14.答案：D推断题。根据题意“At the opening of the century, with the exception of a crude(粗糙的)plow, farmers could have carried practically all of the existing agricultural tools on their backs.可见他们的农具很多”。15.答案：A推断题。文章暗含的内容：“美国缺乏劳动力”。16.答案：A固定搭配name after 以…为名。

19.答案：B固定搭配charge with 指控，指责。

20.答案：A固定搭配in practice 在实践中，实际上。

21.答案：C固定搭配be independent of 独立于…之外,不受…支配。

23.答案：B固定搭配feel like doing sth 想要…。

24.答案：C虚拟语气的用法It's vital that +动词原形，这是一种典型的虚拟语气。

25.答案：B形式宾语it的用法consider +it +adj.+ that…it做形式宾语，真正的宾语是 that后的从句。

26.答案：D非谓语动词的用法，本句为现在分词短语做原因状语，分词的主语和句子的主语一致。

27.答案：A主语从句的用法，What was once regarded as impossible为主语从句。

28.答案：B主谓一致，本句的主语是Mr.Smith, together with his wife and children 是插入语。不改变主语的数。

29.答案：B动名词的用法，min doing sth介意做某事做宾语。当动名词前有某人做其逻辑主语时。用其形容词性的物主代词。

30.答案：D将来完成时，以By引导的将来的时间后面接将来完成时。

31.答案：C现在分词做宾语补足语，表示动作正在进行。

32.答案：A虚拟语气，Without引导含蓄的虚拟条件句，本句是与现在的事实相反的句子。

33.答案：C倒装结构，Only 放在句首，句子倒装。

34.答案：C不定式的用法，不定式短语用作动语修饰名词，主语和动词之间为被动关系，因此用被动形式。

35.答案：C情态动词，主语+ must + have +过去分词，表示对过去事实的推测。

36.答案：A动词不定式的疑问式的用法，连接代词或副词+不定式够成了不定式疑问式，在句子中可以做主语、宾语、表语和状语。

37.答案：A短语辨析，in spite of 不管，不管；because of因为，由于；instead of 代替；on account of由于，因为。根据句意A符合。38.答案：D固定搭配be busy doing sth 忙于做…。

39.答案：D固定搭配give a account of 报告，叙述，说明。

40.答案：B不可数名词的用法。句中room做“空间，余地”，为不可数名词。A和D中的room是可数名词；C中的great deal应为a great deal of，后接可数名词。

41.答案：B将来完成时，By the time后接一个表示将来时间的词或短语或一个表将来动作的从句时，主句要用将来完成时。

42.答案：B虚拟语气，would have done sth.表与现在事实相反。43.答案：A虚拟语气的特殊形式，it's time+that+一般过去时。

44.答案：C倒装结构，由as引导的让步状语从句置于主句之前时表语要倒装。45.答案：D动词的用法，make himself understood使自己的意思被别人明白。

46.答案：D应改为to buy，which to buy是动词不定式的疑问式。47.答案：D应改为welcome,做谓语动词，一般现在时。

48.答案：C应改为found，谓语动词和主语之间的关系为被动。49.答案：D neither表示否定意义，但句中已经有了否定词no。

50.答案：C应改为receiving，look forward to doing sth，盼望做…。

51.答案：C应改为that, it is…，that…强调句型（时间）。

52.答案：C应改为is，因为本句的主语是the cost，是不可数名词。

53.答案：A代词用错，通读全句，可知A中I不对，应改为he。

54.答案：D应改为handling，和前面的choosing是平行结构，接在such as的后面。55.答案：A应改为Compared，因为分词的主语和句子的主语不一致。Part IV Cloze key

译文“跑得最快的人吃得也最多，其消耗的体内脂肪也就最多”。77.解析：翻译时注意，第一句主语是一个动词不定式的疑问句，第二句是含有条件状语从句的复合句。

译文“父母于孩子的谈话方式对孩子的语言能力的发展影响很大，如果父母鼓励孩子对他（她）所读内容做出积极反应，孩子的语言能力就可以得到明显提高”。78.解析：动词不定式的疑问式并列句的翻译。

译文“实验组的父母还学会了如何帮助孩子们找出答案，如何引导孩子思考其他答案的可能性，以及如何鼓励孩子得出正确答案”。

79.解析：本题生单词较多，同学们翻译时多注意。

译文“19世纪的农业革命包括两个方面：节省劳力的机器的发明和科技农业的发展”。80.解析：本题是对时态和具体词组的考查，汉语的时态通过时间副词来表示，英文则通过动词的不同变化。译文“绝大多数今天使用的农具，在1860年已具雏形”。81.译文“we are proud that our new products are popular among consumers”。82.解析：委婉的语气应该用Can you /could you，以表示对说话人尊重。译文“Could you speak louder to make yourself heard? ”。

83.解析：选词在这句话中起主要作用，汉语中“除了”并不会引起任何歧义，但英语中besides与在汉语却只有一个对应词，意思却大相径庭，同学们在翻译过程中要学会活用。

译文“You’d better learn another foreign language besides English”。

84.解析：表扬和批评是本题翻译的重点，这里用它的ing形式比较合适，另外要体现比较级的用法more …than…。译文“Praising is more effective than criticizing in educating children”。

85.解析：It is…that…是固定句型，同时be +of +n，相当于这个名词的形容词形式。译文“It is known to us all that studying is of vital importance to a person’s growing-up.”。

A computer is high tech.So is a communications satellite.A modern manufacturing system is surely high tech.High tech became a popular expression in the United States during the early 1980' s.Because of improvements in technology, people could buy many new kinds of products in American stores, such as home computers, microwave ovens, etc.“ State of the art” is something that is as modern as possible.It is a product that is based on the very latest methods and technology.Something that is “state of the art” is the newest possible design or product of a business or industry.A state of the art television set, for example, uses the modernest electronic design and parts.It is the best that one can buy.“State of the art” is not a new expression.Engineers have used it for years, to describe the best and most modern way of doing something.Millions of Americans began to use the expression in the late 1970's.The reason was the computer revolution.Every computer company claimed that its computers were “ state of the art”.Computer technology changed so fast that a state of the art computer today might be old tomorrow.The expression “ state of the art ” became as common and popular as computers themselves.Now all kinds of products are said to be “state of the art”.16.What is the purpose of the passage A.To tell how “high tech” and “state of the art” have developed.B.To give examples of “high tech”.C.To tell what “high tech” and “state of the art ” are.D.To describe very modern technology.17.What can we infer from the passage? A.American stores could provide new kinds of products to people.B.High tech describes a technology that is not traditional.C.“State of the art” is not as popular as “high tech”.D.A modern plough pulled by oxen is “state of the art”.18.All the following examples are high tech except ______.A.a microwave oven

B.a home computer

C.a hand pump

D.a satellite 19.Which of the fbl1owing statements is not true? A.Since the computer revolution, the expression “ state of art“ has become popular.B.“ State of the art” means something that is the best one can buy.C.With the rapid development of computer,“ state of the art” computer may easily become out of date.D.All kinds of products are “state of the art” nowadays.20.The best title for the passage is__________.A.Computer Technology

B.High Tech and State of the Art C.Most Advanced Technology

D.Two New Expressions Passage Two The Chinese have used a method called acupuncture(针灸)to perform operations for about 4,000 years without putting the patient to sleep.This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body.The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training.But to be skillful requires greater time.The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful.This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed.A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body.But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture.They are trying to develop convincing theory to explain how the needles work, in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep.It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation but the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.21.Acupuncture is_________.A.a medical operation

B.a medical needle

C.a medical technique

D.a medical machine 22.Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture? A.He knows where to place the needles without pain.B.He knows where the operation is to be performed.C.He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.D.He knows how to use the needles in an operation.23.To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person________________.A.several months

B.a couple of weeks

C.a little time

D.almost one month 24.It can be learned from the passage that______________.A.the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needles B.an operation now needs fewer needles than in the past C.acupuncture has existed in China for as long as 2,000 years D.few patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals 25.Which is implied but not stated in the passage' s A.The Chinese mainly use acupuncture to cure strange disease.B.The Chinese are learning to be more skillful and efficient in acupuncture.C.The Chinese have spread acupuncture all over the world.D.Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing diseases.Passage Three Nowadays more and more foreign enterprises and companies are no longer relying on interviews for recruitment(招聘).Years of studying interviewing have made clear that it is not a very objective process.Personnel officers often hire the person they like most, or even the one they think most physically attractive.Looking good is no guarantee of doing the job well, however.Uglies or those who are aesthetically challenged, lose heart.To get a more objective view, many companies are also using psychological tests to hire both for relatively routine jobs and for positions at senior levels of management.It is impossible to say how many employers use tests, but estimates of test sales in the UK for 1993 were over 1 million.The basic reason employers use tests is clear: tests claim to be scientific and objective.A large body of research has shown that interviews by themselves are not very reliable as a method of selection.People's judgment is often very subjective;whether they like the look of someone counts for more than almost anything else.But reliable and valid tests can offer rapid and more objective information about would-be employee.If a candidate talks well in an interview but his test results suggest that he is a careless person who cannot concentrate, an employer is likely to think twice about hiring him.Taking a serious test for a job is rather different from taking a game-like test.You can spend just a little time in answering questions of that kind of test, and you deny the answers and say they are not accurate.But you can not go to a serious test without enough preparation since you cannot afford to be denied and eliminated again and again.26.In the past, who would be sure to be recruited after an interview? A)The person who was well educated.B)The person who had great abilities.C)The person who was physically attractive.D)The person who was appreciated by personnel officer in a certain aspect.27.According to the passage, “those who are aesthetically challenged”refer to those who are____________.A)good-looking

B)guarantee of doing the job well C)not attractive judging from appearance

D)given the job of interviewing the candidates 28.Many companies use psychological tests___________.A)to take the place of interviews

B)just to select common clerks C)to make the recruitment more difficult for candidates D)to get really reliable and fair information about candidates 29.“That kind of test” in the last paragraph refers to____________.A)an interview B)a serious test

C)a game-like test D)an objective test 30.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A)For a certain time, psychological tests and interviews will exist together.B)Psychological tests have been recognized valuable more and more.C)The employer will surely hire a person who does well in the interview but poorly in the psychological tests.D)People seldom attend a serious test without enough preparation unless they are confident of it.Passage Four In the United States, it is not customary to telephone someone very early in the morning.If you telephone him early in the day, while he is shaving or having breakfast, the time of the call shows that the matter is very important and requires immediate attention.The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m.If someone receives a call during sleeping hours, he assumes it's a matter of life or death.The time chosen for the call communicates its importance.In social life, time plays a very important part.In the U.S.A.guests tend to feel they are not highly regarded if the invitation to a dinner party is extended only three or four days before the party date.But it is not true in all countries.In other areas of the world, it may be considered foolish to make an appointment too far in advance because plans which are made for a date more than a week away tend to be forgotten.The meaning of time differs in different parts of the world.Thus, misunderstandings arise between people from cultures that treat time differently.Promptness is valued highly in American life, for example.If people are not prompt, they may be regarded as impolite or not fully responsible.In the U.S.no one would think of keeping a business associate waiting for an hour, it would be too impolite.A person who is 5 minutes late, he will say a few words of

explanation, though perhaps he will not complete the sentence.31.“The same meaning is attached to telephone calls made after 11:00 p.m...” Here “attached“ means______ A.Taken

五、英译汉

聪明的人懂得整个人生布局中的一切事物各归其位。他懂得金钱和财富是手段却不是目的。他知道一时的欢愉有别于持久的满足，伟大有别于成名，敬虔有别于迷信，文学艺术领域乃至整个人生的实力有别于做秀。她知道人生命运躲不过邪恶，人生必有所失，疾病和死亡必会临到我们。聪明的人以平和的心面对这一切。

六、汉译英

A day without hope would be unimaginably pale [dull].there must be something to look forward to each day to keep it out of shadows.To a person cherishing hopes every morning rises a new sun.Deprived of water, soil turns into desert.Deprived of hope, what is left to a man? A small hope sustains you for a day, a great one for a lifetime.

第五篇：9号2007年11月北京地区成人本科学位英语考试(A卷含答案)

07年11月北京地区成人本科学位英语考试（A卷含答案）

2007.11 Passage 1 Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women.Career women are healthier than housewives.Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders.An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment.Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness.Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do.Instead, the happiest are those who are busy.(79)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard.Work serves as a bridge between man and reality.By work people come into with each other.By collective activity they find friendship and warmth.This is helpful to health.The loss of work means the loss of everything.It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement.Word makes one feel his value and status in society.When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.(80)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be.Let us work hard and study and live a happy and healthy life.1.The underlined word “average” in Paragraph I means ______.A.healthy

B.lazy

C.ordinary D.poor

2.The reason why housewives are not as healthy as career women is that ______.A.housewives are poorer than career women

B.housewives have more children than career women C.housewives have less chance to communicate with others D.housewives eat less food than career women

3.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to Paragraph 2?

A.Busy people have nothing to do at home.B.High achievers don’t care about their families.C.There is no friendship and warmth at home.D.A satisfying job helps to keep one healthy.4.We can infer from the passage that those who do not work _____.A.are likely to live a shorter life B.will lose everything at home C.can live as long as those who work D.have more time to make new friends 5.The best title for this passage may be _____.A.People Should Find a Job B.Working Hard Is Good for Health C.People Should Make More Friends by Work D.The Loss of Word Means the Loss of Everything Passage 2 A study of art history might be a good way to learn more about a culture than is possible to learn in general history classes.Most typical history courses concentrate on politics, economics and war.But art history focuses on much more than this because art reflects not only the political values of a people, but also religious beliefs, emotions and psychology.In addition, information about the daily activities of our ancestors can be provided by art.(78)In short, art expresses the essential qualities of a time and a place, and a study of it clearly offers us a deeper understanding than can be found in most history books.In history books, objective information about the political life of a country is presented;that is, facts about politics are given, but opinions are not expressed.Art, on the other hand, is subjective(主观的): it reflects emotions and opinions.The great Spanish painter Francisco Goya was perhaps the first truly “political” artist.In his well-known painting The Third of May, 1808, he criticized the Spanish government for its abuse(滥用)of power over people.In the same way, art can reflect a culture’s religious beliefs.For hundreds of years in Europe, religious art had been almost the only type of art that existed.Churches and other religious buildings were filled with paintings that described people and stories from the Bible.Although most people couldn’t read, they could still understand the Bible stories in the pictures on church walls.By contrast, one of the main characteristics of art in the Middle East was(and still is)its absence of human and animal images.This reflects the Islamic belief that statues(雕像)are not holy.6.More can be learned about a culture from a study of art history than general history because ___.A.art history shows us nothing but the political values B.general history only focuses on politics C.art history gives us an insight(洞察力)into the essential qualities of a time and a place D.general history concerns only religious beliefs, emotions and psychology 7.Art is subjective in that _____.A.a personal and emotional view of history is presented through it B.it only reflects people’s anger or sadness about social problems C.it can easily arouse people’s anger about their government

D.artists were or are religious, who reflect only the religious aspect of the society 8.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.In history books political views of people are entirely presented.B.Francisco Goya expressed his religious belief in his painting The Third of May, 1808 C.In the Middle East, you can hardly find animal or human figures on palaces or other building.D.For centuries in Europe, painters had only painted on walls of churches or other religious buildings.9 The passage mainly discusses _____.A.the development of art history B.he difference between general history and art history C.what we can learn from art D.the influence of artists on art history 10.It can be concluded from the passage that _____.A.Islamic artists only paint images of plants, flowers or objects in their paintings B.it is more difficult to study art history than general history C.a history teacher must be quite objective D.artists painted people or stories from the Bible to hide their political beliefs Passage 3 Blind people can “see” things by using other parts of their bodies.This fact may help us to understand our feelings about color.If blind people can sense color differences, then perhaps we, too, are affected by color unconsciously(无意识地)。

（76）Manufacturers(生产商)have discovered by experience that sugar sells.Badly in green wrappings, that blue foods are considered unpleasant, and that cosmetics(化妆品)should never be packaged in brown.These discoveries have grown into a branch of color psychology.Color psychology now finds application in everything from fashion to decoration.Some of our preferences are clearly psychological.Dark blue is the color of the night sky and therefore associated with calm, while yellow is a day color with associations of energy and incentive(刺激).For a primitive man, activity during the day meant hunting and attacking, while he soon saw red as the color of blood and anger and the heat that came with effort.And green is associated with passive defense and self-protection.(77)Experiments have shown that colors, partly because of their psychological associations, also have a direct psychological effect.People exposed to bring red show an increase in breath, in heartbeat and in blood pressure;red is exciting.Similar exposure to pure blue has exactly the opposite effect;it is a calming color.Because of its exciting meaning, red is chosen as the signal for danger, but closer analysis shows that a vivid yellow can produce a more basic state of alarm.So fire engines and ambulances in some advanced communities are now rushing around in bright yellow colors that stop the traffic dead.11.Our preferences for certain colors are _______ according to the passage.A.associated with the time of the day

B.dependent on our personalities

C.are linked with our ancestors

D.partly due to psychological factors 12.If people are exposed to bright red, which of the following things does NOT happen?

A.They breathe faster.B.They feel satisfied.C.Their blood pressure rises.D.Their hearts beat faster.13.Which of the following statements if NOT true according to the passage?

A.Color probably has an effect on us which we are not conscious of.B.Yellow fire engines have caused many bad accidents in some advanced communities.C.People exposed to pure blue start to breathe more slowly.D.The psychology of color is of some practical use.14.Which of the following statements if TRUE according to the passage?

A.Manufacturers often sell sugar in green wrapping.B.Dark blue bring people the feeling of being energetic.C.Primitive people associated heat and anger with red.D.Green and yellow are associated with calm and passive defense.15.Which of the following could be the most suitable title for the passage?

A.The Branch of Color Psychology

B.Color and Its Meanings

C.The Practical Use of Color Psychology

D.Color and Feelings.全文翻译

第一篇

科学家发现，努力工作的人要比普通人的寿命长。有工作的女人要比家庭主妇健康。有证据表明无业者比有工作的人身体要差。一项调查显示，当失业率增加1%的时候，死亡率就会增加2%。所有这些都说明一点，那就是工作有益健康。

为什么工作有益健康呢？是因为工作让人们变得繁忙，从而远离孤独。研究表明，当人们无事可做的时候，就会感到不快乐，担忧和孤独。相反地，最快乐的人就是那些忙碌的人。那些喜欢他们的工作并取得很高成就的人觉得他们努力工作的时候是最幸福的时候。工作是连接人类和现实的桥梁。人们通过工作与他人接触，通过集体活动找到友谊和温暖。这对健康是有好处的。没有了工作就意味着没有了一切。失业影响人的精神状态，从而使人生病。

另外，工作给人一种责任感和成就感。工作使人感受到自己的价值以及在社会中的地位。当一个作家完成了他的著作，一个医生成功地对病人做了手术，一个教师看到自己学生的成长，他们的幸福无以言表。

通过上述情况，我们可以得出这样一个结论，那就是，你工作的越多，你就会越幸福，越健康。

第二篇

艺术史的学习可能是学习文化的一个好的方法，因为他比在普通历史课堂上学的要多。大多数典型的历史课程主要关注政治、经济和战争。但是艺术史关注的远比这个多，因为艺术不仅反映一个人的政治价值，而且也反映出他的宗教信仰、情绪和心理。另外，艺术也能够提供我们祖先日常行为的信息。简而言之，艺术传达了一个时代和一个地区的基本情况，艺术研究提供给我们的理解要比大多数历史书提供给我们的理解要深刻的多。

在历史书中，讲述了一个国家政治生活的客观信息；也就是说，只给出了政治事实，但是并没有表达观点。另一方面，艺术是主观的：它反映了情绪和观点。伟大的西班牙画家弗朗西斯科戈雅恐怕是第一个真正地政治艺术家。在他1808年著名的画作“The Third of May”中，他批评西班牙政府对人们滥用武力。

同样，艺术也可以反映一个文化的宗教信仰。在欧洲，几百年来，宗教艺术几乎是唯一的艺术形式。教堂和其他的宗教建筑内充满了描述圣经人物和圣经故事的画作。尽管人们不能读圣经，但是他们仍旧能够理解教堂墙壁上图画描述的圣经故事。于此相对照的是，中东地区艺术的主要特征是人类和动物形象出现在艺术中。这反映了伊斯兰信仰中雕像不是神圣的。

第三篇

盲人可以用身体的其他部位来“看”东西。这种事实可以帮助我们理解我们关于颜色的感觉。如果盲人能够感知颜色的不同，那么我们可能也无意识地受到了颜色的影响。生产商通过经验发现，绿色包装的糖卖得不好，蓝色的食品被认为是令人不愉快的，化妆品绝不应该用棕色来包装。这些发现已经成为颜色心理学的一个分支。

现在发现，颜色心理学应用在从时尚到装饰的一切事物上。我们的一些喜好很明显是心理的。深蓝色是夜晚天空的颜色，因此和平静有关，而黄色是白天的颜色，与精力和刺激有关。对一个原始人来说，白天的活动就是打猎和攻击，而他很快就看到了红色，这是努力相伴而来的血液和愤怒以及热量的颜色。而绿色与被动防御以及自我保护相关联。

实验表明，颜色，因为他们与心理学关联，因此也有一个直接的心理效应。人表现出鲜红的颜色，表明了呼吸、心跳记忆血压的增加；红色是兴奋的表现。纯蓝色的类似表现具有完全相反的影响；它是使人平静的颜色。红色因为其有能使人兴奋的意义，因此被作为的危险的记号，但是更细的分析表明，生动的黄色能产生更基本的警告的意义。因此，在一些先进的社区，急急赶路的救火车和救护车用鲜艳的黄色阻止交通堵塞。
