1、山东省成人本科英语模拟试卷 27及答案与解析 一、 Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three 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 corresp

2、onding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. 0 It is natural for young people to be critical of their parents at times and to blame them for most of the misunderstanding between them. They have always complained, more or less justly, that they are possessive and dominant;

3、 that they do not trust their children to deal with crisis; that they talk too much about certain problems; and that they have no sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often underestimate their teenage children and also forget how they themselves fel

4、t when young. Young people often irritate parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and music. This is not their motive. They feel cut off from the adult world into which they have not yet accepted. So they create a culture and society of their own. Then, if it turns out

5、that their music or entertainers or vocabulary or clothes or hairstyles irritate their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are superior, at least in a small way, and that they are leaders in style and taste. Sometimes you are resistant and proud because you do not want your

6、 parents to approve of what you do. If they did approve, it looks as if you are betraying your own age group. But in that case, you are assuming that you are the underdog(处于劣势 ): you cant win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is natural enough after

7、 long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents control. But it ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself. If you plan to control your life, cooperation can be part of that plan. You can impress others, especially your parents, into doing things

8、 the way you want. You can impress others with your sense of responsibility and initiative, so that they will give you the authority to do what you want to do. 1 The author is primarily addressing_. （ A） parents （ B） teenagers （ C） educators （ D） psychologists 2 The first paragraph is mainly about_.

9、 （ A） the teenagers criticism of their parents （ B） misunderstandings between teenagers and their parents （ C） the parents complaints about their children （ D） the dominance of the parents over their children 3 Teenagers tend to have strange clothes and hairstyles because they_. （ A） want to irritat

10、e their parents （ B） have a strong desire to be leaders in style and taste （ C） have no other way to enjoy themselves better （ D） want to show their existence by creating a culture of their own 4 Teenagers do not want their parents to approve of whatever they do because they_. （ A） have a desire to

11、be independent （ B） feel that they are superior in a small way to the adults （ C） are not likely to win over the adults （ D） have already been accepted into the adult world 5 To improve parent-child relationships, teenagers are advised to be_. （ A） obedient （ B） independent （ C） responsible （ D） coo

12、perative 5 Every year just after Christmas the January Sales start. All the shops reduce their prices and for two weeks, they are full of people looking for bargains. My husband and I do not normally go to the sales as we don t like crowds and in any case are short of money as we have to buy lots of

13、 Christmas presents. Last year, however, I took my husband with me to the sales at the large shop in the center of London. We both needed some new clothes and were hoping to find a television set. When we got to Oxford Street, it was so crowded that we decided to split up and meet again at the under

14、ground station. So I left my husband and started looking around the shops. Unfortunately all the clothes were in very large sizes and so were not suitable for me. But I did buy a television at a very cheap price, so I felt quite pleased with myself. When I arrived at the station, my husband was not

15、there. So I sat down in a nearby cafe to have a cup of tea. I quickly finished my tea when I saw my husband and went out to meet him. He looked very happy. Then I saw he was carrying a large and heavy cardboard box. “Oh, dear!“ I thought. Yes, we had no new clothes but two televisions. We shall not

16、be going to the sales again. 6 In January_. （ A） lots of people go shopping for discount （ B） people have a lot of money to spend after Christmas （ C） all the shops close for a two-week Christmas holiday （ D） people dont have enough money to go looking for bargains 7 In this passage, the word “barga

17、in“ could best be replaced by “something_“. （ A） given to people （ B） offered at a reduced price （ C） offered, sold or bought which is expensive （ D） sold for the purpose of reaching an agreement 8 The husband and wife in the story_ . （ A） wished to buy a TV （ B） went to the sales the year before （

18、C） often went to the sales to buy clothes （ D） were usually not short of money after Christmas 9 The phrase “split up“ in the second paragraph means “ _“. （ A） break apart （ B） cause to break （ C） become pieces （ D） go in different directions 10 After their day s shopping, they_. （ A） were happy wit

19、h their bargains （ B） had got everything they wanted （ C） got more than they had hoped for （ D） had to go back to the sales the next day 10 Standard usage includes those words and expressions understood, used, and accepted by a majority of the speakers of a language in any situation regardless of th

20、e level of formality. As such, these words and expressions are well defined and listed in standard dictionaries. Colloquialisms, on the other hand, are familiar words and idioms that are understood by almost all speakers of language and used in informal speech or writing, but not considered acceptab

21、le for more formal situations. Almost all idiomatic expressions are colloquial language. Slang, however, refers to words and expressions understood by a large number of speakers but not accepted as appropriate formal usage by the majority. Colloquial expressions and even slang may be founding standa

22、rd dictionaries but will be so identified. Both Colloquial usage and slang are more common in speech than in writing. Colloquial speech often passes into standard speech. Some slang also passes into standard speech, but other slang expressions enjoy momentary popularity followed by obscurity. In som

23、e cases, the majority never accepts certain slang phrases but nevertheless retains them in their collective memories. Every generation seems to require its own set of words to describe familiar objects and events. It has been pointed out by a number of linguists that three cultural conditions are ne

24、cessary for the creation of a large body of slang expressions. First, the introduction and acceptance of new objects and situations in the society; second, a diverse population with a large number of subgroups; third, association among the subgroups and the majority population. Finally, it is worth

25、noting that the terms “standard,“ “colloquial,“ and “slang“ exist only as abstract labels for scholars who study language. Only a tiny number of the speakers of any language will be aware that they are using colloquial or slang expressions. Most speakers of English will, during appropriate situation

26、s, select and use all three types of expressions. 11 Which of the following is the main topic of the passage? （ A） Standard speech. （ B） Idiomatic speech. （ C） Different types of speech. （ D） Dictionary usage. 12 How is slang defined by the author? （ A） Words and phrases accepted by the majority for

29、on （ D） a number of linguists 15 It can be inferred from the passage that the author_. （ A） does not approve of either slang or colloquial speech in any situation （ B） approves of colloquial speech in some situations, but not slang （ C） approves of slang and colloquial speech in appropriate situatio

30、ns （ D） does not approve of colloquial usage in writing 15 Some pessimistic experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned and allowed to rust. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. Th

31、ey hold that the car will remain a leading means of urban travel in the foreseeable future. The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should

32、be far more pollution-free than present types. Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main problem in urban traffic congestion(拥挤 ). One proposed solution to this problem is the automated highway system. When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable(可伸缩的 )a

33、rm will drop from the auto and make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all

34、of the car s movements. The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzze

35、r(蜂鸣器 )that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that an automated highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1 ,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway. 16 One significant improvement in the future car will probably be_. （ A） i
