1、专业英语八级(改错)模拟试卷 55及答案与解析 一、 PART IV PROOFREADING 【 M3】 _ recorded music, the end of concerts. All these forms still exist sometimes overshadowed by their siblings, but not smothered by them. And with the direst predictions, reading【 M4】 _ continues to be part of the life of the mind. Theres no questi
2、on that reading off-paper, as I think of it, will increase in years to come. A library that got 10 as gifts【 M5】 _ reported that within a half hour they had all checked out. And【 M6】 _ theres no question that once again we will be treated to lamentations suggesting that true literacy has become the
3、lost art. The difference this time is that we will confront with elitism from【 M7】 _ both sides. Not only have literary purists now complain of the【 M8】 _ evanescent nature of letters onscreen, the tech fanatics have become equally disdainful of the old form. Perhaps we should look past both sides t
4、o concern ourselves with function instead of form. I am cheered by the Gallup poll in【 M9】 _ which asks a simple question: do you happen to be reading any books or novels at present? In 1952 a merely 18 percent of【 M10】 _ respondents said yes. The last time the survey was done, in 2005, that number
5、was 47 percent. So much for the good old days. 1 【 M1】 2 【 M2】 3 【 M3】 4 【 M4】 5 【 M5】 6 【 M6】 7 【 M7】 8 【 M8】 9 【 M9】 10 【 M10】 10 If our brains were computers, wed simply add a chip to upgrade our memory. The human brain, therefore, is more【 M1】 _ complex than even the most advanced machine, so im
6、proving our memory isn t quite so easy. Just as it takes effort to build physical fitness, so is boosting brain power.【 M2】 _ A strong memory depends on the health and vital of your【 M3】 _ brain. Whether youre a student studying for final exams, a working professional interested in doing all he can
7、to stay【 M4】 _ mentally sharp, and a senior looking to preserve and enhance【 M5】 _ your intelligence as you age, there are lots of things from【 M6】 _ which you can do to improve your memory and mental performance. They say that you cant teach an old dog new tricks, but when it comes to the brain, sc
8、ientists have discovered that this old proverb simply isnt true. The human brain has astonishing ability to adapt and change even into【 M7】 _ older age. This ability is known as neuroplasticity. With the【 M8】 _ right stimulation, your brain can form new neural pathways, alter existing connections, a
9、nd adapt and react in ever-changing ways. The brains incredible ability to reshape itself hold true【 M9】 _ when it comes to learning and memorizing. You can harness【 M10】 _ the natural power of neuroplasticity to increase your cognitive abilities, enhance your ability to learn new information, and i
10、mprove your memory. 11 【 M1】 12 【 M2】 13 【 M3】 14 【 M4】 15 【 M5】 16 【 M6】 17 【 M7】 18 【 M8】 19 【 M9】 20 【 M10】 20 Road rage, office rage, and even relationship rage are familiar to us. But now idleness rage has emerged. Frequently I hear people who complain about the idleness of young people. Often
11、their【 M1】 _ complaints reach a feverish pitch. Whats behind this rage? Some people fear were spawning a lazy generation. But there is more【 M2】 _ likely that our fast-pace culture blinds us to the need to slow down.【 M3】 _ Recent studies have revealed that North Americans take significant less vaca
12、tion time than people in European countries.【 M4】 _ The same studies indicate that people have a hard time leaving work when they go away. It seems theres always another e-mail to【 M5】 _ check in or a telephone call to make. This has consequences for【 M6】 _ family life. And it points to a deep fear:
13、 Well be punished if we stop working. The art of doing nothing could seem peculiar to some. But in our wired world its easy to slow down. Sometimes it【 M7】 _ takes mental discipline to be idle. Multitasking and instant communication have given us many benefits. And they also【 M8】 _ produce frazzled
14、nerves, sleep problems, strained relationships, irritability, and drug independencies. Thats why its important for【 M9】 _ people to rejuvenate themselves by slowing down. If we value healthy living, creativity, and peace of mind, we should recognize the need to be idle. By doing such, we may【 M10】 _
15、 discover the benefits of simply watching a sunset. 21 【 M1】 22 【 M2】 23 【 M3】 24 【 M4】 25 【 M5】 26 【 M6】 27 【 M7】 28 【 M8】 29 【 M9】 30 【 M10】 30 David Cameron has noticed that health and safety regulations stop schools taking children out on field trips, outdoor activities or just collect autumn le
16、aves down the local park. And the【 M1】 _ Department for Children, Schools and Families is to issue guidelines about extra-curricular activities, with aiming to get【 M2】 _ pupils out of classrooms and back into the real world. I suppose school-organized, adult-supervised activities are better than no
17、thing. And theyre really not good enough. Indeed,【 M3】 _ excess health and safety measures at school are just the tip of the【 M4】 _ risk aversion iceberg leaving increasing numbers of young people without the emotional resilience, social competence and personal confidence to thrive in our society. T
18、he Institute for Public Research, couple of years ago, found British youngsters at or near【 M5】 _ the top of the European charts for almost every type of teenage misconduct. Nothing is mightily wrong with childhood in Britain,【 M6】 _ and after thirty years working with children and teachers(the last
19、 eight years which were spent researching toxic childhood), I【 M7】 _ reckon my risk aversion not just in schools but in every area of【 M8】 _ life is a major part of the problem. A combination of parental anxiety, community intolerance and all-pervasive risk aversion now threaten the mental and【 M9】
20、_ physical health of the next generation. This is becoming a matter【 M10】 _ of urgency that we reclaim public space for our children and relearn skills that came naturally to our ancestors. 31 【 M1】 32 【 M2】 33 【 M3】 34 【 M4】 35 【 M5】 36 【 M6】 37 【 M7】 38 【 M8】 39 【 M9】 40 【 M10】 专业英语八级(改错)模拟试卷 55答案
