1、专升本英语(阅读)模拟试卷 119 及答案解析(总分:50.00,做题时间:90 分钟)一、BPart III Rea(总题数:5,分数:50.00)The physicist investigating the relationship between time and space, the chemist exploring the properties of a new substance , the biologist probing the mysteries of the continuity of life, and the anthropologist (人类学家) searc
2、hing for human origins share a common trait , curiosity. Not that non-scientists are not curious; most people possess this characteristic. The scientist, however, uses a specific method to make researches into these enigmatic problemsthe scientific method. Unfortunately, science and its method are m
3、isunderstood. The multiplication of our knowledge in medicine and technology has led to the idea that science can cure all and explain all and that only enough time, money and intelligence are needed. In truth, science cannot provide all answers. In fact, many phenomena are not even subject to scien
4、tific explanations. On the other side of the coin, science has been attacked as a cause of most contemporary problems. It is said to be responsible for the depersonalization (使失去个性) of the individual, for stripping (夺去) creativity from human behavior, and for creating massive threats to the species
5、through the development of nuclear power, insecticides, and polluting machinery. If we analyze the situation we can see that it was not the original intent of the people who developed computers to debase humankind, nor was mass production proposed as a method to crush creativity. It is what society,
6、 policymakers especially, does with scientific achievements that makes them social or antisocial. There is nothing inherently good or bad about science.(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following is the main topic of the passage?(分数:2.00)A.Scientists and their curiosity.B.Science and scientific method.C.Un

10、e coin in Para. 3 the coin is used to refer to_.(分数:2.00)A.the misunderstanding scienceB.the scientific explanationC.the money needed in scientific researchD.the curiosity of scientists and non-scientistsThere are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealt
11、h and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable. This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds. The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the
12、pleasant parts of conversation, the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasu
13、res of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied. The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit, unknown to
14、 its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit. Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has
15、 serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If t
16、hey aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them. These people should change this bad habit. If they do not, it will be good for oth
17、ers to avoid any contact with them.(分数:10.00)(1).People who are to be unhappy _.(分数:2.00)A.always consider things differently from othersB.are usually influenced by the results of certain thingsC.can discover the unpleasant part of certain thingsD.usually have a fault-finding habit(2).When those unh
18、appy people meet others, they will_.(分数:2.00)A.have a good taste of the pleasures of societyB.feel depressed about the pleasures of societyC.be happy with the pleasures of societyD.enjoy the pleasures of society(3).According to the passage, it can be safely said that_.(分数:2.00)A.if they realize the
19、harmfulness of their habits the unhappy people may get rid of itB.if people are in misery, they will be critical about everythingC.we should not pity these unhappy people for their self-criticismD.these unhappy people are not content with anything they have(4).“And scarcely that“ in the last paragra
20、ph means_.(分数:2.00)A.just like thatB.almost not like thatC.more than thatD.not at all like that(5).If such unhappy persons dont change their bad behavior, the authors suggests that people_.(分数:2.00)A.avoid contacting with themB.criticize their misconductC.help them recognize its bad effectsD.show no
21、 respect and politeness to themSuppose we built a robot (机器人) to explore the planet Mars. We provide the robot with seeing detectors to keep it away from danger. It is powered entirely by the sun. Should we program the robot to be equally active at all times? No. The robot would be using up energy a
22、t a time when it was not receiving any. So we would probably program it to cease its activity at night and to wake up at dawn the next morning. According to the evolutionary theory of sleep, evolution equipped us with a regular pattern of sleeping and waking for the same reason. The theory does not
23、deny that sleep provides some important restorative functions. It merely says that evolution has programmed us to perform those functions at a time when activity would be inefficient and possibly dangerous. However, sleep protects us only from the sort of trouble we might walk into; it does not prot
24、ect us from trouble that comes looking for us. So we sleep well when we are in a familiar, safe place, but we sleep lightly, if at all, when we fear that bears will nose into the tent. The evolutionary theory accounts well for differences in sleep among creatures. Why do cats, for instance, sleep so
