14、part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET I./BBPassage One/BA child of five is friendly, competent and obedient, although he may be bossy with

15、other children and is sometimes sufficiently independent to call his mother names. He is still dependent on adult approval and praise, and so orientated (对感兴趣) to the grown-up that he tells tales without seeing the other childs point of view. There is no real discussion yet fives talking together in

16、dulge in a “collective monologue (独白)“; quarrelling with words often begins towards the end of the year. Group play is often disrupted because everyone wants to be the mother or the bride or the captain of the fire brigade. Each child has an urgent need for constantly recurring (反复的) contact with an

17、 adult in spite of all his efforts to be independent. In his unsureness he may make statements about his own cleverness and beauty, hoping that the adult will praise him: this is not conceit but a cry for reassurance. He loves to say “Watch what I can do.“ Reality and fantasy are still intermingled

18、and this confusion may lead him to elaborate on facts.（分数：12.00）(1).It is implied in the passage that a competent child _.（分数：3.00）A.does what he is toldB.plays with other childrenC.can perform certain taskD.tells other children what to do(2).A five-year-old child sometimes shows his independence by

19、 _.（分数：3.00）A.making friendsB.calling his mother namesC.seeking adult approval and praiseD.being bossy with other children(3).The passage points out that when everyone wants to be the mother or the bride, group play is often _.（分数：3.00）A.broken upB.spoiledC.interruptedD.halted for a moment(4).Which

20、of the following is not conceit but a cry for reassurance?（分数：3.00）A.An urgent need for contact with adult.B.A childs efforts to be independent.C.A childs unsureness.D.A childs making statements about his own cleverness.BPassage Two/BPerhaps there is only the moon to compare with it. Of all the achi

21、evements of American engineering, only the landing on the moon and the planting there of a wrinkled flag can rival the construction of Panama Canal as an epoch-making accomplishment. The Suez Canal, the trans-Siberian Railroad and the Taj Mahal all pale beside it. The canals construction is more clo

22、sely akin to the pyramids of Egypt in its scope and difficulty of execution, but in the modern era, there is only the moon.Like the landing on the moon, the construction of a canal across the narrow Isthmus of Panama was a dream long before it became reality. As early as 1534, Charles I of Spain pro

23、posed a canal at Panama, but it would take nearly 400 years for builders to catch up with his imagination.When the canal finally was proposed required all the creativity the twentieth century could muster. It was the largest public work ever attempted. Its engineers had to control a wild river, cut

24、the continental divide, construct the largest dam and man made lake known to that date and swing the largest locks ever constructed from the biggest cement structures then poured. Along the way, two of the worlds most devastating diseases had to be wiped out in one of their greatest strongholds. And

25、 all of this was to be done without the airplane or the automobile: Kitty Hawk rose into the head-lines in 1903the same year the U. S. signed a treaty with Panamaand there was no read across the isthmus until the World War .If Panama has had an unusual role in bygone dreams, it most certainly has a

26、startling relationship to the hard facts of geography. The country is farther east than most people imaginethe canal and about half of Panama actually lie east of Miami. Because of the countrys shallow “S“ shape and east-west orientation, it has places where the sun rises in the Pacific and sets in

27、the Atlantic. More significantly, Panama is squeezed into the narrowest portion of Central. At the canal, just 43 miles of land separate Atlantic and Pacific shores. Perhaps even more important, Panama offers the lowest point in the North American continental divideoriginally 312 feet above sea leve

28、l at the canals Culebra Cut. By comparison, the lowest pass in the United States is nearly 5,000 feet.（分数：12.00）(1).In scope and difficulty, the canals construction was most closely alike to that of the _.（分数：3.00）A.Suez CanalB.trans-Siberian RailroadC.Taj MahalD.pyramids of Egypt(2).A canal in Pana

30、 lies east of Miami.B.Panama is squeezed into the narrowest portion of Central America.C.Panama offers the lowest point in the North American continental divide.D.All of the above are true.BPassage Three/BOceanography has been defined as “The application of all sciences to the study of the sea“.Befo

31、re the nineteenth century, scientists with an interest in the sea were few and far between. Certainly Newton considered some theoretical aspects of it in his writings, but he was reluctant (不愿意) to go to sea to further his work.For most people the sea was remote, and with the exception of early inte

32、rcontinental travellers or others who earned a living from the sea, there was little reason to ask many questions about it, let alone to ask what lay beneath the surface. The first time that the question “What is at the bottom of the oceans?“ had to be answered with any commercial consequence was wh

33、en the laying of a telegraph cable from Europe to America was proposed. The engineers had to know the depth profile (起伏形状) of the route to estimate the length of cable that had to be manufactured.It was to Maury of the U. S. Navy that the Atlantic Telegraph Company turned, in 1853 for information on

34、 this matter. In the 1840s, Maury had been responsible for encouraging voyages during which soundings were taken to investigate the depths of the North Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. Later, some of his findings aroused much popular interest in his book The Physical Geography of the Sea.The cable was l

35、aid, but not until 1866 was the connection made permanent and reliable. At the early attempts, the cable failed and when it was taken out for repairs it was found to be covered in living growths, a fact which defied contemporary scientific opinion that there was no life in the deeper parts of the se

36、a.Within a few years oceanography was under way. In 1872 Thomson led a scientific expedition (考察), which lasted for four years and brought home thousands of samples from the sea. Their classification and analysis occupied scientists for years and led to a five-volume report, the last volume being pu

37、blished in 1895.（分数：12.00）(1).The passage implies that the telegraph cable was built mainly _.（分数：3.00）A.for oceanographic studiesB.for military purposesC.for business considerationsD.for investigating the depths of the oceans(2).It was _ that asked Maury for help in oceanographic studies.（分数：3.00）A

38、.the American NavyB.some early intercontinental travellersC.those who earned a living from the seaD.the company which proposed to lay an undersea cable(3).The aim of voyages Maury encouraged in the 1840s was _.（分数：3.00）A.to make some sound experiments in the oceansB.to collect samples of sea plants

39、animalsC.to estimate the length of cable that was to be madeD.to measure the depths of two oceans(4).“Defied“ in the 5th paragraph probably means _.（分数：3.00）A.doubtedB.gave proof toC.challengedD.agreed toBPassage Four/BEver since humans have live on the earth, they have made use of various forms of

40、communication. Generally, this expression of thoughts and feelings has been in the form of oral speech. When there is a language barrier, communication is accomplished through sign language in which motions stand for letters, words, and ideas. Tourists and the people unable to hear or speak have had

41、 to resort to this form of expression. Many of these symbols of whole words are very vivid and exact and can be used internationally; spelling, however, cannot.Body language transmits ideas or thoughts by certain actions, either intentionally or unintentionally. A wink can be a way of indicating tha

42、t the part is only joking. A nod Signifies approval, while shaking the head indicates a negative reaction.Other forms of nonlinguistic language can be found in Braille (a system of raised dots read with the fingertips), signal flags, Morse code, and smoke signals, Road maps and picture signs also gu

43、ide, warn, and instruct people. While language is the most common form of communication, other systems and techniques also express human thoughts and feelings.（分数：12.00）(1).Which of the following statements best summarizes this passage?（分数：3.00）A.When language is a barrier, people will find other fo

44、rms of communication.B.Everybody uses only one form of Communication.C.Nonlinguistic language is invaluable to foreigners.D.Although other forms, apart from language of communication exist, they are of little value.(2).Which of the following statements is NOT true?（分数：3.00）A.There are many forms of

45、communication in existence today.B.Language is the most common form of communication.C.Tourists are incapable of using an oral form of communication.D.Ideas and thoughts can be transmitted by body language.(3).Which form other than era4 speech could be most commonly used among blind people?（分数：3.00）

46、A.Picture signs.B.Braille.C.Body language.D.Signal flags.(4).Sign language is said to be very vivid and exact and can be used internationally except for _.（分数：3.00）A.spellingB.ideasC.whole wordsD.expressionsBPassage Five/BAnyone who has ever attended a university knows that the quality of lecturers

47、varies greatly. A few are very effective communicators, conveying the substance of their lectures clearly and interestingly and inspiring students to want to know more about the subject. Others produce dull lectures from which the students learn little and which are likely to kill any interest they

48、may have in the subject. Lecturing is a major part of a university lecturers job and it would seem reasonable that effectiveness in this task should be a major standard in assessing a lecturer for promotion. However, it is very often the case that far more weight is given to such factors as participation in research, number of publications and even performance of administrative duties. My point of view is that a lecturers lecturing should be regularly evaluated and that the best people to carry out this evaluatio
