II. Reading Comprehension（50分）阅读4片，样题提供前三篇

Directions: There are 4 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 One

Learning how to write is like taking a course in public speaking. I’d ask whether anyone in class had ever taken such a course. Invariably a few hands would go up.

“What did you learn in that course?” I’d ask.

“Well, the main thing was learning how to face an audience…not to be inhibited (拘谨；抑制)…not to be nervous…”

Exactly, when you take a course in public speaking nowadays, you don’t hear much about grammar and vocabulary. Instead, you’re taught how not to be afraid or embarrassed, how to speak without a prepared script, how to reach out to the live audience before you. Public speaking is a matter of overcoming your longstanding nervous inhibitions.

It is the same in writing. The point of the whole thing is to overcome your nervous inhibitions, to break through the invisible barrier that separates you from the person who’ll read what you wrote. You must learn to sit in front of your typewriter or dictating machine and reach out to the person at the other end of the line.

O f course, in public speaking, with the audience right in front of you, the problem is easier. You can look at them and talk to them directly. In writing, you’re alone. It needs an effort of your experience or imagination to take hold of that other person and talk to him or her. But that effort is necessary or at least it’s necessary until you’ve reached the point when you quite naturally and unconsciously “talk on paper.”

4l. The main task of a public speech course is to ________.

A. teach spoken-language experience

B. teach how to use gestures to assist speech

C. help the learners overcome nervousness

D. teach how to control the volume of the speaker’s voice

42. Learning how to write is similar to learning how to

speak in public in that a writer should ___________.

A. overcome his or her nervousness in the first place

B. watch his or her grammar and vocabulary

C. collect a lot of data before writing

D. take hold of a reader and talk to him or her before writing

43. In the author’s opinion, _________.

A.w riting needs more experience and skill than public

speaking

B.b oth writing and public speaking require effort

C.w riting is imaginative

D.p ublic speaking is not so natural as writing

44. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?

A.N ot many students feel the need to learn public

speaking.

B.T raining is necessary before you can speak with script.

C.I n public speaking, the audience are more nervous

than the speaker.

D.W riting is just like making a public speech on paper.

45. This selection is mainly about learning how to _______.

A.m ake a public speech

B.t alk on paper

C.b ehave properly in public speech

D.e xpress strong emotion on paper

Passage Two

In the modern technological world the sea offers many resources to help mankind survive. Resources on land are beginning to grow less. The sea, however, still offers hope to supply many of man’s needs.

The riches of the sea yet to be developed by man’s technology are impressive. Oil and gas explorations have existed for nearly thirty years. Valuable amounts of minerals such as iron, nickel and copper and so on exist on the ocean floor, ready to be mined.

Fish farming promises to be a good way to produce large quantities of food. The culture of fish and shellfish is an ancient skill practiced in the past mainly by Oriental peoples.

Besides oil and gas, the sea may offer new sources of energy. Experts believe that the warm temperature of the ocean can be used in a way similar to the steam in a steamship. Ocean currents and waves offer possible use as a source of energy such as hydroelectric power.

Technology is enabling man to explore ever deeper under the sea. The new undersea technology is providing divers with diving suits and undersea chambers that are kept at sea level pressure. The development of strong, new materials has made this possible.

The technology to harvest the sea continues to improve. By the year , experts believe that the problems to exploit the food, minerals, and energy sources of the sea will be largely solved.

46. What is the best title for the passage?

A. Needs of Man

B. Sources of Energy

C. Sea

Harvest D. Sea Exploring Technology

47. According to the author, technology for exploring the sea is important because______.

A.m an cannot travel farther into space

B.

resources on land are running short

C.i t’s a lot of fun diving into the sea

D. ancient

people used to explore the sea

48. Why does the author mention a steamship?

A.To indicate that it is warmer in the ocean than on

land.

B.To show that a steamship is better than other kinds

of ship.

C.To argue that man should use steamships more than

other means of transportation.

D.To illustrate that man can make use of sources of

energy from the sea.

49. It can be inferred from the passage that_______.

A.man hasn’t completely developed the riches of the

sea

B.technology for exploring the sea has been solved

C.planting rice in the sea will be made possible in a

short time

D.in the near future man can live on the ocean floor

50. The word “exploit” in the last paragraph could best be replaced by________.

A.evaluate

B. develop

C. gather

D. scatter

Passage Three

Your passport is your official identification as an American citizen. In America, most people never consider obtaining a passport unless they are planning a trip out of the country. In Europe, where travel from one country to another is much more common, almost everyone carries a passport. A passport is the final proof of identity in almost every county in the world.

In l979 almost l5 million Americans held passports. Most of these passports were obtained to travel outside the country because, except for a few Western nations, passports are required to enter every country. And if you

travel abroad, you must have a valid passport to reenter the country.

When traveling abroad, you will need a passport for identification when exchanging dollars for francs or marks or other foreign currency. You may also need your passport to use a credit card, buy an airplane ticket or check into a hotel. As a passport is an official U.S. document, it is valuable as identification in any emergency overseas, such as floods, fires or war.

Don’t confuse passports and visas. Whereas a passport is issued by a country to its citizens, a visa is official permission to visit a country granted by the government of that country. For some years, many countries were dropping their visa requirements, but that trend has reversed. Argentina, Brazil, and Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens. They may be obtained from the embassy of the country you wish to visit.

Passport applications are available at passport agency offices in large cities like Boston, New York, or Chicago. In smaller cities, applications are available at post offices and at federal courts. To get your first passport, you must

submit the application in person, along with a birth certificate and two pictures.

5l. The main purpose of this passage is to___________.

A. discuss traveling in other countries

B. distinguish between passports and visas

C. discuss the financial uses of a passport

D. provide information about passports

52. Passports are beneficial for___________.

A. exchanging currency

B. using a credit card

C. checking into hotels

D. all of the above

53. We can conclude from the passage that_________.

A. every country requires a visa from a foreign citizen

B. not every country requires a visa from a foreign citizen

C. only countries like Argentina, Brazil, and

Venezuela now require visas from U.S. citizens

D. passports are obtained at the embassy once you enter a country

54. The passage suggests that_________.

A. most people don’t realize how important passports are

B. passports aren’t important once you are in the

country you’ve chosen to visit

C. passports are simple to obtain through the mail

D. passports are obtained at the embassy once you

enter a country

55. As used in this passage, the word “valid” in the second paragraph means__________.

A. foreign

B. legal

C. monetary

D. illegal III．Cloze (20分)

Ⅳ. Translation (20分)

Directions: In this part, there is a passage in English. Read it carefully and translate it into Chinese.

As a developing country, China is confronted with the dual task of developing the economy and protecting the environment. Starting from its national conditions, China has, in the process of promoting its overall modernization program, made environmental protection one of its basic policies, regarded the realization of sustainable economic development as an important strategy and meanwhile, carried out throughout the country campaigns for pollution prevention and treatment as well as ecological environmental protection.

Over the 35 years since its adoption of reform and opening policy, China’s gross national product has achieved an average annual growth of around l0 percent, while its environment has basically ceased from deteriorating. Practice has shown that China’s endeavor in striking a balance between economic development and environmental protection has been effective.

As a member of the international community, China, while making great efforts to protect its own environment, has taken an active part in international environmental protection affairs to promote international cooperation in environmental protection, and earnestly fulfilled her international obligations. All these have given full expression to the sincerity and determination of the Chinese government and people to protect the global environment.

Mankind still faces a great many difficulties in solving the problems of the environment and development, and there is a grand task to perform and a long way to go. China will, as it did in the past, cooperate with other countries of the world and strive for the protection of the environment for human survival, for the happiness and prosperity of humanity, and for the benefits of our children.

The servants were up very late on the Saturday evening, getting everything ready for the next day, and while they were busy they saw the glow (暗淡的光) of a fire start in the sky. By 3 o'clock on the Sunday morning, the glow had become so bright that one of the servants, Jane, woke her master to see it. Pepys went to the window to watch it. It seemed fairly far away, so after a time he went back to bed. When he got up in the morning, it looked as though the fire was dying down, though he could still see some flames. So he set to work to tidy his room and put his things back where he wanted them after the servants had cleaned everything. While he was doing this, Jane came in to say that she had heard that the fire was a bad one: three hundred houses had been burned down in the night and the fire was still burning. Pepys went out to see for himself. He went to the Tower of London and climbed up on a high part of the building so that he could see what was happening. From there, Pepys could see that it was, indeed, a bad fire and that even the houses on London Bridge were burning. Someone told him that the fire had started in a

College English Test Part I Skimming and Scanning (Each item: 1 point; total: 10 points) [15 minutes] Directions: In this part, you will go over the passage quickly and choose the best answer to each question and then mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET. For questions 1 - 7, mark A. Y, B. N and C. NG; For questions 8- 10, fill in the balnk with proper words Y (for YES) if the statement agrees with the information given in the passage; N (for NO) if the statement contradicts the information given in the passage; NG (for NOT GIVEN) if the information is not given in the passage. World of the Future Scientists think that wonderful things may come true in the future. Future means a time that is not yet here. It can be a short time from now or a long time from now. Some of the underwater wonders are almost ready to come true now. Others won't come tree, we think, until a long time from now. Some, of course, may never come true--but who knows for sure? They may. What are some of the wonders that may come true in the future? A world underground The green utopia (an ideally perfect place) underground is going to help us regain a more harmonious relationship between the often opposing sides of large-scale development and our ecosystem. The city may be called Alice City, from Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland, which offers a wonderful world that is almost as fantastical as that was described in the book. A large clear dome (圆顶), within an area of open parkland, leads into a multi-leveled structured metropolis of underground offices, housing, transportation and public areas. There will be everything to make the city as self-sufficient as possible including shopping malls, theatres and sports complexes in addition to facilities (contained in a separate structure) for power generation, heating and waste recycling. Apart from offering an almost limitless space for development, such underground development has many more attractive ecological advantages over traditional forms of housing. It is less disturbing than high rise development and therefore favorable in environmentally sensitive areas. Land above the complex can be set aside for parkland and recreational use. In towns or cities where pollution levels are high, air can be filtered through air pipes in the roof of an underground housing or industrial complex. A world underwater At the docks you step into a shiny metal submarine that is shaped like a shark. The door is closed behind you, and powerful engine starts to push. Down slides the submarine--like a shark diving. Deeper and deeper under the water. Soon all sunlight is gone. The headlights of the diving ship are turned on. Then, six miles below, you come to the sea bottom. From the diving submarine, you change to tiny jet boat and ride along close to the bottom of the ocean, almost as you would skim over the land in an air-plane. As you travel, you have fun looking out the window at the sights on the bottom of the ocean. You see strange fish and underwater mountains, cliffs, and valleys. But more than that--hotels and mining camps and farms and factories! A world in space Let's go back to dry land and take a future journey the other way-up instead of down. Huge rocket liners take you into space to visit the Moon Camp. You walk around on the moon in a special moon suit. You visit an observatory where a giant telescope looks far into space--farther than anyone has ever been able to see from Earth. You go deep down into one of the moon mines. After you have visited the moon, you visit the Mars Colony and the Venus Exploration Outpost. A new world on the Earth Let's go back to Earth. In the far, far future, girls--and boys, too--may be playing with dolls that look like the people of the planets visited by our spacemen. To control or run all kinds of toys, boys and girls may learn to use special computers --machines that answer questions and do arithmetic faster than you can blink. Bicycles and perhaps skates may be run by jet power, and a new thing to ride may be a small flying saucer. Imagine a race between them! There may be telepathy (心灵感应) helmets that send thought waves from your brain to that of your friend miles away. You just think a thought and your friend knows it! You can have secrets with each other that nobody else can turn in on! Robots There will be other surprises in the future. How would you like to have a robot playmate? Having robot playmates may not be-so much fun as it seems. But maybe a boy with a wrench (扳手) and a screwdriver can fix the robot so that it won't be too perfect! Food What about the food of the future? Scientists think that much of it will be artificial --made in factories from such surprising things as coal, limestone, air, and water. You don't think that ice-cream or cake or candy or even bread and potatoes made out of these things will taste very good? You may be wrong. These artificial things will be blended so skillfully by food chemists that the food of the future probably will be delicious. It probably will also be healthful because all the things that you need to live a long and healthy life will be put into it. A longer life Scientists of the future will almost certainly find other ways to make life last longer. They probably will find cures for most diseases. Hospitals will probably have "body banks" that can give you almost any new part you need to keep on living. People of the future may live to be a lot older than 100 years. TV Are you wondering whether there'll be television in the future? There'll almost certainly be wonderful programs. Television screens probably will be large and flat, hanging on the wall or going across the four walls of a room. People on the screen will look as real as if they were right in the room with you. Highways What about highways of the future? Well, a very small child probably will be able to drive a car. Nobody will need to steer. Electric signals will hold each car on the right road to get wherever the "driver" wants to go. And it probably will be impossible for cars to smash together. Controls that won't even have to be touched will make all speeding cars miss each other or will put on the brakes. Driving by car will be as safe as being at home. Weather control But maybe the most wonderful surprise in the future will be weather control. Cities may have giant plastic domes over them to keep out snow, rain, or storms. When you plan a picnic in a park, you won't have to worry about rain. It will rain only when the "weatherman" thinks it is needed to freshen the air inside the city. All other days will be fair and warm. The future should be a wonderful time in which to live. But the time you axe living in now was also "a wonderful future" to the people who lived 100 years ago. 1. The underground city would get its name from a book called Alice's Adventure in the Wonderland. A. Y B. N C. NG 2. The multi-leveled structure underground would include everything that is necessary to a city, from offices, shopping malls to power and heating system. A. Y B. N C. NG
