1、英语(一)自考题模拟 18 及答案解析(总分：100.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、第一部分：阅读判断(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Students and Technology in the ClassroomI love my blackberryit“s my little connection to the larger world that can go anywhere with me. I also love my laptop computer, as it holds all of my writing and thoughts. Despite this love of

2、 technology, I know that there are times when I need to move away from these devices (设备)and truly communicate with others. On occasion, I teach a course called History Matters for a group of higher education managers. My goals for the class include a full discussion of historical themes and ideas.

3、Because I want students to thoroughly study the material and exchange their ideas with each other in the classroom, I have a ruleno laptops, iPads, cell phones, etc. When students were told my rule in advance of the class, some of them were not happy. Most students assume that my reasons for this ru

4、le include unpleasant experiences in the past with students misusing technology. There“s a bit of truth to that. Some students assume that I am anti-technology. There“s no truth in that at all. I love technology and try to keep up with it so I can relate to my students. The real reason why I ask stu

5、dents to leave technology at the door is that I think there are very few places in which we can have deep conversations and truly engage complex ideas. Interruptions by technology often break concentration and allow for too much dependence on outside information for ideas. I want students to dig dee

6、p within themselves for inspiration and ideas. I want them to push each other to think differently and make connections between the course materials and the class discussion. I“ve been teaching my history class in this way for many years and the evaluations reflect student satisfaction with the envi

7、ronment that I create. Students realize that with deep conversation and challenge, they learn to keep the course material beyond the classroom. I“m not saying that I won“t ever change my mind about technology use in my history class, but until I hear a really good reason for the change, I“m sticking

8、 to my plan. A few hours of technology-free dialogue is just too sweet to give up.（分数：10.00）(1).The author loves the technological products such as blackberry and laptop.（分数：1.00）A.TrueB.FalseC.Not Given(2).Face-to-face communication with others is better than the communication through those digital

13、justified by the ideology that biology is destiny. According to this ideology, basic biological and psychological differences exist between the sexes. These differences require each sex to play a separate role in social life. Women are the weaker sexboth physically and emotionally. Thus, they are na

14、turally suited much more so than men, to the performance of domestic duties. A woman“s place, under normal circumstances, is within the protective environment of the home. Nature has determined that women play care-taker roles, such as wife and mother and homemaker. On the other hand men are best su

15、ited to go out into the competitive world of work and politics, where serious responsibilities must be taken on. Men are to be the providers; women and children are “dependents“. The ideology also holds that women who wish to work outside the household should naturally fill these jobs that are in li

16、ne with the special capabilities of their sex. It is thus appropriate for women, not men, to be employed as nurses, social workers, elementary school teachers, household helpers, and clerks and secretaries. These positions are simply an extension of women“s domestic role. Informal distinctions betwe

17、en “women“s work“ and “men“s work“ in the labor force, according to the ideology, are simply a functional reflection of the basic differences between the sexes. Finally, the ideology suggests that nature has worked her will in another significant way. For the human species to survive over time, its

18、members must regularly reproduce. Thus, women must, whether at home or in the labor force, make the most of their physical appearance. So goes the ideology. It is, of course, not true that basic biological and psychological differences between the sexes require each to play sex-defined roles in soci

19、al life. There is ample evidence that sex roles vary from society to society, and those role differences that do exist are largely learned. But people actually believe that biology is destiny and that nature is intended for men and women to make different contributions to society, sex-defined roles

20、will be seen as totally acceptable.（分数：10.00）(1).Women“s place, some people think, is the protective environment of the home because _.（分数：2.00）A.women can provide better care for the childrenB.women are too weak to do any agricultural work at allC.women are biologically suited to domestic jobsD.wom

25、taken over by men.三、第三部分：概括段落大意和补全句子(总题数：1，分数：10.00)Television ShowsEuropean television had the idea of taking ordinary people and turning them into “stars“ by putting them in unusual situation. “Big Brother“ (created in Holland) was one of the first. A group of people were locked in a small house w

26、ith cameras running 24 hours a day. It was called a “watch and dial“ show because viewers vote by telephone to decide who should leave or stay. “Big Brother“ was probably the first of the new reality shows, but such a programme has developed. Many have found appeal by having a theme to them, but mos

27、t are based on the principle of “survival of the fittest“ by eliminating participants as the series progresses. So we have the dating shows where winners either pair off or stay true to their partners outside the TV studio. Then there are those that test people“s abilities for specific jobs like run

28、ning a kitchen, becoming an interior designer or a top model. Critics say these programmes are basically bad television, but people watch them. So why are there so many of them? For the viewer it“s an opportunity to “people watch“. It“s natural to like watching other people. They“re interesting. We

29、can imagine what we would do in that situation. We get to know the characters and see them grow and develop week after week. And of course, television is the perfect place to watch people. Like the theatre or cinema we can look at other people and they can“t look back. But with television, we can wa

30、tch in the privacy of our own homes. We watch, but we don“t have to admit it to anyone. The TV companies like reality shows because they are cheap to produce and attract younger viewers, which advertisers like. The last “Big Brother“ in Britain attracted enormous advertising revenue. They aren“t dep

31、endent on “star“ actors with enormous salaries. And your actors won“t go on strike. And why do people participate in them? Well, for fame and money of course. In the past, appearing on television wasn“t for ordinary people. You had to be good at something, like sport, or reading the news, or acting.

32、 But not any more. It seems that most shows do well at the beginning but then the viewing figures begin to fall. And it varies from country to country too. For example, one show had an adopted child try to guess the identity of her real father, and another had a family arguing over an inheritance. B

33、oth were cancelled after one episode. Perhaps the novelty has worn off. Certainly, reality TV seems to appeal much more to the younger audience. And now there are so many shows around even the young have become more critical. Reality show will probably surviveit“s just no longer so easy to make a su

With faithful, silent regular

38、ity, he patrolled the hills, removed the leaves and branches, and wiped away the silt that would otherwise have choked and contaminated the fresh flow of water. 1 Graceful swans floated along the crystal clear spring, the mill wheels of various businesses located near the water turned day and night,

39、 farmlands were naturally irrigated, and the views from restaurants were picturesque beyond description. Years passed. 2 As they reviewed the budget, one man“s eye caught the salary being paid to the obscure keeper of the spring. Said the keeper of the purse, “Who is the old man? Why do we keep him

40、on year after year? No one ever sees him. For all we know; the strange ranger of the hills is doing us no good. He isn“t necessary any longer.“ 3 For several weeks, nothing changed. By early autumn, the trees began to shed their leaves. Small branches snapped off and fell into the pools, hindering t

Generally speaking, the Accounts Depart

44、ment is 1 for calculations of pay, while the Personnel Department is interested in discussions with the employees about pay. If a firm wants to 2 a new wage and salary structure, it is essential that the firm should decide on a 3 of job evaluation and ways of measuring the performance of its employe

In job evaluation, all of the requirements of each job are defined in a detailed job description. Each of those requirements is given a value, usually in “points“, which are 5 together to give a tot
