Living in a modern society has its advantages and disadvantages.One disadvantage is that you often have to live closer to other people than you would like to.Sometimes, your neighbors make noise that you are not comfortable with.The best way to solve this problem is to talk with your neighbor first.You should be very polite and ask your neighbor if he knows how thin the walls of your homes are.This way doesn’t criticize(批评)his behavior;it simply points out that he may not realize how far his sound travels.Tell him that you know that sometimes you make noise as well, but that you do your best to keep it down.Often this will solve the problem right away, but sometimes the neighbor may become angry.If your neighbor becomes angry with you, there are some more steps you can take.You might write a letter to the neighborhood committee.Make sure you write down the source of the noise and the time in the letter.They will review the situation and decide whether your neighbor is out of line.Some noise is considered to be reasonable, even if it bothers you.So you may prepare a good pair of earplugs(耳塞).Even if your neighbor makes too much noise, you don’t have to live your life in discomfort.It’s always a good idea to be friendly with your neighbors.You may clean the rubbish in front of his door.He’s sure to appreciate behavior like this and be more open to your suggestions about noise level.51.What is the first step to deal with the noisy neighbor? A.To buy a good pair of earplugs.B.To offer suggestions to the neighbor.C.To ask the neighborhood committee for help.D.To tell the neighbor how bad his behavior is.52.The underlined word “reasonable” in the third paragraph probably means “____”.A.terrible
B.loud
C.proper
D.unpleasant 53.What should be written in the letter to the neighborhood committee? A.How to punish your noisy neighbor.B.Where and when the noise appears.C.How to make the noise less in the neighborhood.D.What problems the noise causes to your life.54.What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A.You should control your noise as well.B.You can live comfortably even if there is noise.C.Your neighbor may be more friendly than you think.D.You should build good relationship with your neighbor.55.The author wrote this passage to tell us ____.A.why we should get on well with neighbors B.how to relax ourselves in a modern society C.how to become known among neighbors D.what we should do with our noisy neighbor
C If you do not use your arm or your legs for some time, they become weak;when you start using them again, they slowly become strong again.Everybody knows that.Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it.When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault(过错).But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame(受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault.Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write and they have to remember things;they cannot write down in a little notebook.They have to remember days, names, songs and stories;so their memory is the whole time being exercised.So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: Practice remembering.56.The main reason for one’s poor memory is that _______.A.his memory is not often used
B.he does not use his name or legs for some time C.his father or mother may have a poor memory D.he can’t read or write
57.If you do not use your arms or legs for some time _______.A.you can’t use them any more B.they will become stronger C.they will become neither stronger nor weaker
D.they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again 58.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.B.Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice.C.Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.D.A good memory comes from more practice.59.Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because _______.A.they have save much trouble B.they have saved much time to remember things C.they have to use their memories all the time D.they can’t write everything in a little notebook 60.Which is the best title for this passage? A.Don’t Stop Using Your Arms or Legs B.How to Have a Good Memory C.Strong Arms and Good Memories D.Learn From the People 第二节 信息匹配(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。

学位英语考试练习题
(五)一、阅读理解:
(一)Most people have had a dog or wanted one as their companion at some time in their lives.If you are thing of buying a dog, however, you should first decide what sort of companion you need and whether the dog is likely to be happy in the surroundings you can provide.Specialists’ advice is useful to help you choose the most suitable kind of dog.But in part the decision depends on common sense.Different dogs were originally developed to perform specific tasks.So, if you want a dog to protect you or your house, for example, you should choose the one that has the right size and characteristics.You must also be ready to devote a great deal of time to training the dog when it is young and give it the exercise it needs through out its life, unless you live in the countryside and can let it run freely.Dogs are demanding pets.Cats love the house and so are satisfactory with their place where it is secure, but a dog is loyal to its master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.The best time to buy a baby dog is when it is between 6 and 8 weeks old so that it can transfer its love from its mother to its master.If baby dogs have not established a relationship with the human being until they are over three months old, their strong relationship will always be with dogs.They are likely to be shy when they are brought out into the world to become good pets.1.Which of the following is Not true according to the passage?
A.You can always get help from the specialists.B.It is common sense that is the most important when choosing a dog.C.You should decide what kind of dog you want.D.Size and characteristics of the dogs should be considered too.2.What is mentioned as a consideration in buying a dog?
A.The color of the dog.B.The price of the dog.C.Whether the dog will fit the environment.D.Whether the dog will get along with the other pets in the house.3.Why does the writer say a dog is a more demanding pet than a car?
A.It must be trained so that it won’t bite.B.It demands more food and space.C.It needs more love and care.D.It must be looked after carefully.4.Why is it advised to buy a baby dog under three months old?
A.It’s easier to buy a baby dog under three months old.B.They are less likely to be shy with human beings.C.They are less likely to run away.D.It’s esier for them to form a relationship with their masters.5.The word “affection”(Line 11)means _____.A.love
B.effect
C.tie
D.relationship 难点:
1. Be likely to do sth: 可能干某事。也可用It is likely that……
2.devote……to: to 在这里是介词,其后要接名词或相当于名词的词或词组。如:She devotes herself to teaching children.3.demanding: 需要关爱和照顾的。
答案:
1.B 考点:这是一道判断理解题,可用排除法。
解析:从文章第二、三、五句话,我们可知,A、C、D都符合原文的说法。B说的是“在挑选狗的时候,常识性的东西最重要”。而原文第四句话却说“但是,部分决定取决于常识”,并非是最要的。所以B不符合原文,是正确的答案。
2.C 考点:这是一道细节题,可用排除法。
解析:文章建议在挑选狗时,应该考虑狗的大小,性格,是否能适应主人提供的环境,而并未提到A:狗的颜色,B:狗的性格,D:是否可以与家里其他宠物融洽相处。所以D正确。
3.C 考点:这是一道理解题。
解析:从这句话:a dog is loyal to master and consequently wants him to show proof of his affection.我们可知,狗比猫更需用爱护和照顾。所以,C是正确答案。
4.D 考点:这是一道理解题。
解析:本题问的是为什么建议在狗小于三个月时购买?原文说“狗在6周到8周大的时候,可以将它的感情从它母亲转到主人身上。如果狗在三个多月大时还不能与人产生感情,那么,他们的感情将永远是与狗一起了。他们很可能过于害羞而不能成为好的宠物。”所以:D这样更容易使狗与它的主人建立感情,是答案。
5.A 考点:这是一道词汇题。
解析:affection在这里是喜爱的意思。所以A是正确的答案。
(二)The young people who talk of the village as being “dead” are talking nothing but nonsense, as in their hearts they must surely know.No, the village is not dead.There is more life in it now than there ever was.But it seems that “village life” is dead.Gone for ever.It began to decline about a hundred years ago.When many girls left home to go into service in town many miles away, and men also left home in increasing numbers in search of work, and home was where work was.There are still a number of people alive today who can remember what “village life” meant in the early years of the present century.It meant finding your entertainment in the village of within walking distance of it.It meant housewives tied to the home all day and every day.It meant going to bed early to save lamp-oil and coal.Then came the First World War and the Second World War.After each war, new ideas, new attitudes, new trades and occupations were revealed to villagers.The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make “village life” and “town life” almost alike.Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all, there is no point whatever in talking any longer about “village life.” It is just life, and a better life.Finally, if we have any doubts about the future, or about the many changes which we have seen in our lives, we have only to look in at the school playground any mid-morning;or see the children as they walk homeward in little groups.Obviously there children are better fed, better clothed, better educated, healthier, prettier and happier than any generation of children that ever before walked the village street.1.By saying that village is not dead, but “village life” is dead, the writer suggests that _____.A.those young people who talk of the village as being “dead” are wrong B.the two statements are against each other C.“village life” today is rather uninteresting
D.“village life” today is no longer like what it used to be
2.It was _____ that “village life” began to take a sharp turn.3 A.about a century ago B.during the two world wars C.with electricity and motorcars introduced into the village D.only recently
3.As is suggested in paragraph 2, villagers in the past _____.A.lived a simpler life than villagers today B.knew fewer people than villagers today C.found it difficult to enjoy themselves D.liked to wash themselves with cold water
4.The expression “...there is no point whatever in talking about...” in paragraph 3 means that _____.A.there is no end to the talking about...B.it is harmful to talk about...C.it is not meaningless to talk about...D.there is no reason for talking about...5.From the passage we can see that the writer’s attitude toward “village life” is ____
A.positive
B.negative
C.neutral
D.unclear 【难点】
1.nothing but...: 除了,仅仅 2.the present century: 本世纪 3.tied to the home: 被束缚在家 4.reveal: 展现,显露
5.take sth.For granted: 认为某事当然,如,We mist not take it for granted that...: 我们决不可想当然地认为 …… 6.social welfare: 社会福利 【答案】 1.D 考点:这是一道理解判断题。
解析:本文第二段对过去和现在的农村生活进行对比,由此得出现在的农村生活已经不再像过去的农村生活那样了。所以本题正确答案应该是D。而不是A:那些谈论农村已经不存在的年轻人是错误的,B:农村和农村生活相反,C:今天的农村生活很乏味。
2.C 考点:这是一道细节题。
解析:本题问的是从什么时候起,农村生活有了一个转折点。从文章第三段第四句话:“电和机动车辆在拉近农村生活和城市生活的距离方面起着决定性的作用”,可知选项C 正确。
3.A
考点:这是一道判断题。
解析:第二段最后四句话讲述的是:过去的村子里的每一个人都相互了解;不必走很远就可以娱乐;家庭主妇们每天都呆在家里;为了节省煤和灯油,人们很早就睡了。由此,我们可知,选项A是正确答案。
4.D 考点:这是一道词汇理解题
解析:point 在这里可以理解成“有道理,有理由”所以,答案应该是D。
5. C 考点:这是一道理解判断题。
解析:作者在文章中只讲农村生活的变化,并未对农村生活进行评价,所以作者的观点是中立的。因此答案是C。

A Figures indicate an ever-increasing crime rate, but it is only too easy to imagine"It will never happen to me".(1)Unfortunately, statistics show that it really can happen to you and, if you live in a large city, you run twice the risk of being a victim.B Research has also been done into the way people’s behavior changes in a number of small, apparently unimportant ways when they lie.(2)It has been found that if they are sitting down at the same time, they tend to move about in their chairs more than usual.(3)To the trained observer they are saying I wish I were somewhere else now.C Todays’s wealthy parents perhaps realize their riches can be more of a heavy load than a happiness to their children.(4)So the first thing for them to consider is to ensure that their families are as rich in love as they are in money.(5)D Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult.If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do.It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return.(6)In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child---things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known.But a child has his pains: He is not so free to do what he wishes to do;he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.(7)E Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from it.(8)And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted one.F Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational”, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events.But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.(9)As in other democratic countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals(丑闻)or crimes,(10)for instance, the Watergate Affair.The newspapers drew the attention of the publi 7 c to the fears of the Vietnam War.G Five hundred years ago, news of important happenings-battles lost and won, kings of rulers overthrown of killed-took months and even years to travel from one country to another.The news passed by word of mouth and was never accurate.Today we can read in our newspapers of important events that occur in far away countries on the same day they happen.(11)H Actually, the world’s birth rate is falling.But so is death rate, as medical advances have made it possible for man to live longer than before.(12)Such advances have also reduced baby death rate.Unless population growth is reduced, the world population may reach 12 billion in a century.(13)Is the earth capable of providing a good life for so large a population? I The condition most helpful to spending appears to be price stability.If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy.Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology(心理学).(14)J Then came the First World War and the Second World War.After each war, new ideas, new attitudes, new trades and occupations were revealed to villagers.(15)The long-established order of society was no longer taken for granted.Electricity and the motorcar were steadily operating to make “village life” and “town life” almost alike.Now with the highly developed science and technology and high-level social welfare for all, there is no point whatever in talking any longer about “village life.”(16)It is just life, and that a better life.英译汉答案:

(四)Part I Reading Comprehension
A teddy bear is delivered to No.10 Downing Street after the birth of Prime Minister Tony Blair and wife Cherie’s fourth child.Britain’s baby alert is over-Cherie Blair gave birth to a boy.Mrs.Blair, 45, wife of Prime Minister Tony Blair, had the baby this morning.The baby will be named Leo after the prime minister’s father, his office announced, the baby weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces.Mother, father and the baby boy returned to 10 Downing Street-the prime minister’s official residence-after the birth, a spokesman said.The baby is the couples’ fourth child.“Cherie and the baby are absolutely fine,” Blair said today outside his Downing Street residence.“He is a gorgeous little boy.They are resting right now.”
Blair, dressed casually in an open shirt, appeared emotional about the birth, the first of his four children whose birth he has been at from beginning to end.“this is the first time I’ve seen the whole thing though,” he said.“it was quite a struggle, really, for Cherie.”
The switchboard was reportedly lit up with calls from world leaders wishing them well, including a call from Hillary Colliery Clinton.Former prime minister John Major was the first public figure to get through on the phone at 7 a.m.on Saturday.The baby came after a 12-year gap from the Blairs other three children-Euan, 16, Nicky, 14, and Kathryn.He is the first to be born to a serving Buitish prime minister in over 150 years.News of the pregnancy took Cherie and the rest of the nation by surprise when it was announced last year.After decades of much older occupants at No.10 Downing Street, the Blairs’ arrival at the prime minister’s residence with their children and assorted toys in tow was hailed as a breath of fresh air.Cherie Blair, a Queens Counsel barrister, worked right up until the baby’s birth.And the often thorny issue of combining career and family was at the center of her work.On Tuesday, Mrs.Blair was at work in the High Court, challenging her husband’s government over parental leave.1.Why does the writer mean by “baby alert” IN PARAGRAPH 2?
A.Because people in Britain didn’t expect Mrs.Blair to give birth to a boy.B.Because Mrs.Blair is at too high an age to give birth to a baby.C.Because there is a baby disease spreading about Britain.D.Because people in Britain were frightened by the new born baby.2.Which of the following is not true abort the baby?
A.This baby is not the third child of Tony Blair.B.He weighed in at 6 pounds, 12 ounces.C.He was born in No.10 Downing Street.D.He is 16 years younger than his eldest brother.3.Judging from the passage, Mrs Blair ____.A.was a bit uncomfortable after the labor.B.is a weak-bodied woman.C.is a strong-minded woman.D.is a family woman.4.What does the word “thorny”(in the sentence “ And the often thorny issue of combining career and family”)mean?

答案: 1.B 考点: 这是一个细节询问题。
解析: 我们从原文第三段和倒数第四段可知,去年布莱尔夫人怀孕的消息一传开,英国人感到非常吃惊:她45岁才生下这个小孩,这个年纪生小孩是很危险的年龄。英国人很担心他们的首相夫人能否顺利生产。因此,B最符合原义。
2. C
考点:这是一个判断题;问的是以下哪一个有关这个婴儿的说法是正确的。
解析:从前四段我们可以看出,布莱尔夫人刚生下一个男孩;这个男孩是布莱尔夫妻的第四个孩子,他重六磅,12盎司。孩子出生以后,由父母带回唐宁街十号。由此我们可以得知,这个孩子不是在唐宁街十号出生的。故C不符合原文。
3. C
考点:这是一个细节分析题;问的是布莱尔夫人是一个怎么样的人。
解析:该题的信息出现在文章最后两段。从该部分我们可以得知,布莱尔夫人是一名律师,她的孩子出生前一直在坚持工作,星期二那天,她正在高等法庭工作,对她丈夫的产假制度提出了挑战。由此我们可以看出,布莱尔夫是一位非常坚强的女性。所以,本题的答案为C。
4. B
考点:这是一个词汇题;考的是如何通过上下文判断词义。
解析:该词所在的句子出现在倒数第二段里,这句话的意思是解决好事业和家庭的关系经常是她工作的焦点。事业和家庭之间的关系对她来说是一个棘手的问题;由此我们可以得知,该词的意思是困难的,棘手 7 的。这个词的意思还可以从该词的词根判断出来。我们都知道,“thorny”的意思是“荆棘”,通过构词法我们可以知道,n + y构成了这个词的形容词形式。由此也可知道,该词的词义是“棘手的”。
5. D
考点:这是一个主旨题;考的是文章的题目。
解析:本文开头直接提到首相府邸新婴儿的出生。然后对母子的情况作了简要的报告。整篇文章都是对布莱尔夫人生小孩的报道,所以,最符合原文的题目应该是D。
6.B
get sb to do sth.意为"让某人做......".
7. C
where = in which, “where…., there are….” 指"哪儿有...,就有...".
在本句中,where引导地点状语.
8. B
distinguish right from wrong 的意思是“分清是非”,是固定搭配。所以B是正确答案。A 的意思是“感觉、觉察”,C 的意思是“看到、发现”,D的意思是“观察”均不符合题意。
9. C would rather +句子(过去时)(虚拟语气):I’d rather you didn’t tell anyone what I said.你最好别告诉任何人我所说的话。I’d rather you came with me.你还是和我一起来吧。
10.B
except 和except for 都是介词,后面接短语。而except that和except when后面接宾语从句。that在从句中只起连接作用。而when在从句中做状语。如:She knew nothing about his journey except that he was likely to be away for three months.关于他们的旅行她不清楚,只知道他大概要离开三个月。(that 在宾语从句中只起连接作用)He was a man of fine character in all points except that he was rather timid.他在各方面都很好,除了有点胆小。而本句要选择except when,因为when 在从句中做状语。
11.C
“look into ”的意思是“调查”,本句的意思是“我保证一到那就调查这件事情”。“look for”:寻找。Will you help me look for my gloves? 你能帮我寻找我的手套吗?look in:朝里面看。I looked in my purse and discovered I’d only got a five-pound note.我朝钱包里一看,发现只有一张五英镑的钞票。look after: 照顾、照看。He has looked after his elderly parents for many years.他照料年迈的父母已经多年了。
12.D
make out 有“辨认出、听出”的意思。又如:It was difficult to make out what was said over the loudspeaker in the square.很难听清楚广场上的扩音喇叭里在说什么。make for: 走向,朝…前进。It’s late, we’d better make for home.时间不早了,我们最好赶快回家。Make for the beach!向海滩前进!make sure: 设法保证。He went round making sure that all the windows were closed.他巡视了一遍,看看所有的窗户是否都已关上。make over: 翻新、改造。The house has been made over into a school.房屋已经改成一所学校。Human nature can’t be made over so easily.人性并非那么容易改变的。
13.B
这句话的意思是:我到处找食用油,但是一点也没有找到.注意little 一点,一些;虽然也用于修饰不可数名词,但是表达否定含义.它前面有一个转折词but,说明后句与前句的关系,结果应该是与找油的目的相反的含义,找了,但是没有找到.所以用B.
14.A
我们刚坐下就发现是该走的时间了.no sooner……than……: 一……就…… 固定结构,引起句子倒装.这种形式会经常考到.
15.B
繁重的工作之后他感到很累,就躺到床上睡了.现在分词形式做伴随状语.
16.A by far强调比较级或最高级,在强调比较级时,比较级前也要用the.17.D feel like doing sth.意为"想做某事".
18.A
你将很快适应这里的气候,然后气温的变化就不会影响你了.注意:be used to sth/doing sth 和 get used to sth./doint sth.都表示"习惯于......"
19.B
except for “除了...外”,前后不属于同一性质,常用来表示可惜或者美中不足的语气,例如,本题前半部分讲到的是"你的写作发好",而后半部分讲到"一些拼写错误",前后显然不属于同一性质;except是"除了...之外",前后属于同一性质;besides, in addition to 都指"除了...,还有...".
20.D
新思想往往要到若干年后才能被完全接受.新思想是被接受的,所以要用被动形式,故D选项正确.
21. C
我哥哥在加利福尼亚度假,我真希望她在这儿,这样他就能帮我修我的车了。Wish后面用虚拟语气,与现在事实相反,用一般过去式。
22. B
应改为: going,介词后面的动词用其ing形式,为伴随情况。
23. C
应把not去掉。因为hardly这个单词本身就含有否定的意义。
24. A
应改为:whatever.不管一个人的社会角色是什么,记着努力工作和为人民服务都是应该的。
25. D
在美国,男女关系非常处得非常近甚至于长期居住在一起,但是也无意考虑结婚。这里marry是及物动词,后面没有接宾语.故D改为:to be married.26. A
这些学生希望被提供工作机会,应该用被动语态。故A项应改为to be offered.27. C
应改为:gets used.28. B
这句话是说: 不止一次地,我发现自己尽管提前已经准备了但到时个还是怀疑自己的决定。这里doubt不能用原形,应改为doubting.形式:
found sb doing…….29. B criticize sb for(doing)sth..因(做)某事而批评某人。
30. C
由于错过了最后一班车,Ralph别无选择,只好打出租车回家尽管他并不赞成这样的办法。注意这句话的转折关系,C项中的:and 应改为but.这个:had no alternative but to do…… 除了做……别无选择。
完形填空题:
1.C 告诉某人某事用: tell sb sth.2.
C 也用许多其它的方法 in many other ways.这里A项显然不对,B项中another指的是两者之中的另一个,而这里所表达的方法显然不止两种。D项中others其余的,前面要带the一起使用:the others 其余的,后面不再跟名词。
3.C
这里要表达的是:比如,有时当我们想说“是”的时候就点头,move our heads up and down.4.
D
当我们想说“不”的时候就摇头,move our heads from side to side.5.
D
有些既不能听也不能与别人交谈的人中只能借助他们的手指来获得帮助。Neither……nor……
既不……也不…….6.
A
这句话是说,接下来的故事就表现出了他们在这种情况下是怎么样做的。所以要用how来引导这个方式状语从句。
7.B
一个不会说意大利语的英国人曾在意大利旅游。通过后面的谓语动词was可以肯定人称是单数,显然,用an,因为后面English 是以元音字母开头的。
8.D
曾经,用once.其它选项代入句子不通。
9.B
一天他走进一家餐馆在一张桌子旁边坐下。在桌子旁边坐,用介词at.10.C
put……into…… 把……放进…….11.A
take……out…… 把……取出…….12.A Bring me something to eat.给我些吃的,这里bring是带来的意思。而take则表达拿去的意思。C,D显然不合题意。
13.C a cup of tea 一杯荼。
14.A
根据后面的:the waiter understood that he didn’t want tea.我们知道他是对服务员的做法表示否定,这时他只能是摇头,而不可能是点头。所以用shook his head.15.B
把……拿走
take……away;根据前后语意可知,服务员知道他不是想要一杯荼于是就把荼端走了。
16.B
承接上句,于是给他带来了一些咖啡。不能用很多,也不能用很少,只是表达给他带来些咖啡 10 而已。
17.A
这个英国人生气了。他正要离开的时候另一个服务员进来了。显然,时间状语从句由when来引导。
18.C
这个英国人一看到这个服务员就把手放到胃部。

把……放在…上面
19.B
这就足够了。很快一大盘面包和肉就放到了桌子上。In a few minutes 很快,几分钟之内。
