第一篇：英语三级考试真题及答案
2006年4月英语三级考试真题及答案
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:
In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six.At this stage nearly ail the teachers are women, mostly married.(76)The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested.The old authoritarian(要绝对服从的)methods of education were discredited(不被认可)rather a long time ago-so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction.The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good.So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process.This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive;however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education.Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails.It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness.1.According to the passage, the U.S.elementary education is supposed to make children__________.A.sensible and sensitive B.competitive and interested
C.curious and friendly D.happy and co-operative
2.Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think__________.A.children are reluctant to help each other
B.schools lay too much emphasis on co-operation
C.children should grow up with competitive ideas
D.schools give little actual instruction to children
3.The author's attitude towards American education can be best described as__________.A.favorable B.negative
C.tolerant D.unfriendly
4.The American educational system emphasizes__________.A.material wealth B.competition
C.co-operation D.personal benefit
5.The word “sociable”(Line 8, Paragraph 2)most probably means__________.A.fond of talking freely
B.friendly with other people
C.concerned about social welfare
D.happy at school
Passage 2
Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:
Nonverbal(非语言的)communication has to do with gestures, movements and closeness of two people when they are talking.(77)The scientists say that those gestures, movements and so on have meaning which words do not carry.For example, the body distance between two speakers can be important.North Americans often complain that South Americans are unfriendly because they tend to stand close to the North American when speaking, while the South American often considers the NorthAmerican to be “cold” or “distant” because he keeps a greater distance between himself and the person he is speaking to.The “eye contact” provides another example of what we are calling nonverbal communication.Scientists have observed that there is more eye contact between people who like each other than there is between people who don't like each other.(78)The length of time that the person whom you are speaking to looks at your eyes indicates the amount of interest he has in the things you are talking about.On the other hand, too long a gaze can make people uncomfortable.The eyes apparently play a great part in nonverbal communication.Genuine warmth or interest, shyness or confidence can often be seen in the eyes.We do not always consider a smile to be a sign of friendliness.Someone who is always smiling, and with little apparent reasons, often makes us uneasy.6.According to the passage, nonverbal communication__________.A.is a method often used by people who cannot speak
B.can tell something that words cannot
C.can be used to talk with people who cannot bear
D.is less used than words
7.The South American__________.A.tends to keep a distance between himself and the person he is speaking to
B.usually stands close to the person he is talking to
C.is often unfriendly when spoken to
D.is often cold and distant when speaking
8.Which of the following is NOT true?
A.Less eye contact suggests distance in relation.B.The longer one looks at you, the more interest he has in you.C.There is more eye contact between people who like each other.D.Shorter eye contact shows more interest in what one is talking about
9.Too long a gaze__________.A.may upset people being looked at
B.shows one's great confidence
C.indicates one's interest in the talk
D.tells you how friendly one is
10.Constant smiling without apparent reason__________.A.is a sign of one's friendliness
B.is a sign of one's unfriendliness
C.makes people feel happy
D.makes people feel uncomfortable Passage 3
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:
Television has opened windows in everybody's life.Young men will never again go to war as they did in 1914.Millions of people now have seen the effects of a battle.And the result has been a general dislike of war, and perhaps more interest in helping those who suffer from all the terrible things that have been shown on the sc-Teen.Television has also changed politics.The most distant areas can now follow state affairs, see and hear the politicians before an election.Better informed, people are more likely to vote, and so to make their opinion count.Unfortunately, television's influence has been extremely harnfful to the young.(79)Children do not have enough experience to realize that TV shows present an unreal world;that TV advertisements lie to sell products that are sometimes bad or useless.They believe that the violence they see is normal and acceptable.All educators agree that the “television generations” are more violent than their parents and grandparents.Also, the young are less patient.(80)Used to TV shows, where everything is quick and interesting, they do not have the patience to read an article without pictures;to read a book that requires thinking;to listen to a teacher who doesn't do funny things like the people on children's programs.And they expect all problems to be solved happily in ten, fifteen, or thirty minutes.That's the time it takes on the screen.11.In the past, many young people__________.A.knew the effects of war
B.went in for politics
C.liked to save the wounded in wars
D.were willing to be soldiers
12.Now with TV people can__________.A.discus politics at an information center

14.Which is NOT true according to the passage?

D.TV has a deep influence on the young

About a hundred years ago, some men went to American from Europe, coming from a big city in Germany called Hamburg.They didn't know how to use English properly.Seen them eating round pieces of beef and asked what it was, the Germans didn't understand the questions exactly, they answered: “we come from Hamburg.“One of the Americans was an owner of a restaurant and got an idea.He cooked some round pieces of bread with beef and began selling them.Such bread came to be called “hamburgers”.Today, hamburgers are welcomed
by lots of people coming from different nationalities.36.According to the text, English is __C_____.A)older than Chinese

For the first time, according to a US poll commissioned by AOL Games, roughly half of those surveyed, ages 12 to 55, are tapping away at some kind of electronic game—whether on a PC, a cell phone or another handheld device—for an average of three hours every week.The games people play say a lot about who they are.Machines like the Xbox and PlayStation 2 are largely the territory of twenty-something men, who prefer to picture themselves as sports ‘stars and racing drivers.Men 50 and older prefer military games.Teenage girls are much more likely than boys to play games on their phone, while older women make up the majority of people playing card games such as Hearts on line.Is it a good thing, all this time spent on games Or is it as harmful as television, pulling people ever further from reality The AOL survey suggests some players are in denial about the extent of their habit.One in 10 gamers find it impossible to resist games;1 in 4 admits to losing a night’s sleep to play games;and another quarter has been too absorbed to have meals.But don’t think we’re all heading into a world with everyone plugged into, if not totally controlled by, his own game.Quite the contrary: gamers appear to be more engaged with reality than other kinds of couch potatoes.According to a comprehensive survey by the Entertainment Software Association(ESA-whose members, of course, want you to think video games are healthy), gamers spend an average of 23 hours a week volunteering and going to church, concerts, museums and other cultural events.More enthusiastic gamers who play 11 hours a week or more spend ever more time out in the cultural world(34 hours).51.The AOL survey finds that electronic games ______.A.do not present a violent onscreen world
B.no longer keep gamers from growing up
C.are no longer exclusive to young people
D.are not as popular with teenagers as before

53.When asked about the extent of their habit, some players ______.A.refused to provide an answer to this question B.denied they were affected by electronic games C.wondered why they were asked such a question D.stressed their interest in playing electronic games
54.It can be inferred from the text that ______.A.electronic games are less harmful than television
B.television viewers are more realistic than gamers
C.television is more popular than electronic games
D.gamers have less self-control than TV viewers
55.According to the writer, the ESA members ______.A.have sufficient knowledge of games

The ostrich, the largest bird in the world at present, lives in the drier regions of Africa outside the actual deserts.Because of its very long, powerful legs and the floating effect of its extended wings, it is able to run at great speed over considerable distances.The female ostrich normally produces about twenty eggs every rainy season.When the 上学吧欢迎您 英语试题
female ostrich begins to lay her eggs, however, she does not begin in her own nest.Instead she goes off in search of the nests of neighboring females and lays two or three eggs in each of them.By the time she has laid eight or nine eggs, she returns and lays the rest in her own nest.Because of the size of the eggs, the female ostrich cannot lay more than one every two days, so it takes her three weeks to finish laying in her own nest.During that period, she spends a lot of time away from her nest looking for food.And while she is off her nest, other females visit it to lay their eggs amongst hers.By the time she is ready to sit on the eggs to hatch them, there could be up to thirty eggs in her nest, over half of which are not her own.The female ostrich can comfortably cover only about twenty eggs when she is sitting on the nest so before settling down she pushes the surplus ten or so eggs out of the nest.The rejected eggs, however, never include any of her own.Each female is remarkably consistent in the size and shape of the eggs she produces, so it is not difficult for her to distinguish her own from those of strangers.Of all the eggs laid by a colony of ostriches, only a very small number hatch into young birds.There are times when nests are left unprotected, for there are too few males to sit on all the nests at night.Thus there are ample opportunities for their natural enemies to raid the nests and eat the eggs.In fact, nearly 80% of the nests are destroyed.But even if a particular female’s nest suffers this fate, there is a good chance that one or two of her eggs will be hatched in the nest of one of her neighbors.56.We learn from the text that an ostrich can go a long distance at high speed as ______.A.it is a special kind of bird
B.it lives in large desert areas
C.it has special wings and legs
D.it is the largest bird in the world
57.Normally, in every rainy season, the female ostrich produces about ______.A.12 eggs in her nest
B.18 eggs in her nest
C.20 eggs in her nest
D.30 eggs in her nest
58.The female ostrich would push some of the eggs out of her nest because ______.A.she can only hatch her own eggs
B.those eggs are unlikely to be hatched
C.those eggs are to be hatched by other
D.she can only hatch a limited number of eggs
59.The female ostrich identifies her own eggs by their size and ______.A.color B.number C.shape D.weight
60.The female ostrich lays her eggs in her neighbors' nests most probably because ______.A.her nest-is not big enough B.she cannot protect all her eggs
C.she cannot tolerate all her eggs
D.her nest is not comfortable enough Part B
Directions: Read the opinions given by five scholars on challenges facing today’s single women.For questions 61 to 65, match the name of each scholar(61 to 65)to one of the statements(A to G)given below.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.What the women I spoke with said was that they want a husband who is independent and dedicated to his career, but that he doesn’t have to make a lot of money.The emphasis was always on finding a best friend—a soul mate—someone you could tell all your troubles to and who would be supportive.So it doesn’t seem to be the case that these women were looking for super high-achieving men.Grise Levison
I think that for women, as well as for men, the standard for someone who you’d want to 上学吧欢迎您 英语试题
spend your life with depends much more today on emotional intimacy.It takes some trial and error and a pretty long and dedicated search to identify the kind of person who is emotionally matching you and who is able to communicate and listen to trouble talk.Marry Brown
In recent decades girls have been raised to be more competitive and stronger than they were in the past.Several women I talked to mentioned that in their life they felt that their intelligence or intellectual achievement seemed to work against them in their romantic relationships with men.However, most of the women I interviewed felt that there were some men “out there” who would be attracted to smart women.The problem was finding them.Donna Smith
I think, for the women I talked to, their ultimate sense of what they want in life includes family and children, but they aren’t willing to think about the fact that they therefore will probably have to give up some of their own individual pursuits and career goals.I think the definition of success includes both love and work, and that the challenge is how to arrange that in a particular order.Elizabeth Budy
I think that people who have clone at least some of the things that are essential for a wise judgment about a partner are more likely to eventually end up in a stable marriage.It’s also true that they’re likely to marry someone who is similar to them in education and earning power, which means that those marriages are likely to have more money in them.Now match the name of each scholar(61 to 65)to the appropriate statement.Note: there are two extra statements.Statements
[A] Career success is in fact not a disadvantage.[B] The ability to choose a right partner ensures a stable mar riage.[C] How to balance career with family is key to success.[D] The essential part of marriage is the union of soul.[E] Finding an emotionally intimate mate isn’t a piece of cake.[F] Career success ensures a solid marriage.[G] Social assistance is needed for today’s single women.61.____________________ 62.____________________ 63.____________________ 64.____________________ 65.____________________ Section Ⅳ Writing

2.The cartoon tells us a serious problem existing in the parks.Many people throw litters everywhere without caring for the environment.The beautiful scenery is totally destroyed by the rubbish they throw away.With the development of our economy, people are paying less and less attention to the protection of our environment;as a result, we are facing a severe environmental problem.If we don’t protect our environment, our lives will be in great danger.We must take some measures to prevent the situation from becoming worse!
For instance, we can pick up litters and put them into the dustins, and we can teach children not to throw the litters casually.As an old saying goes, “A small act can make a big difference.” If everyone makes a contribution to the protection of our environment, I believe our world will be cleaner and more beautiful in the future, where green patches can be easily reached and the blue sky can always be seen clearly over our heads.上学吧欢迎您 7
