1、河北专接本英语（阅读理解）模拟试卷 1 及答案与解析0 “Opinion“ is a word that is used carelessly today. It is used to refer to matters of taste, belief, and judgment.

For its obvious that by opinion he means his pers

4、onal preference, a matter of taste. And as the old saying goes, “its pointless to argue about matters of taste.“But consider this very different use of the term. A newspaper reports that the Supreme Court has delivered its opinion in a controversial case. Obviously the justices did not show their pe

5、rsonal preferences, their mere likes and dislikes. They stated their considered judgment, painstakingly arrived at after thorough inquiry and deliberation.Most of what is referred to as opinion falls somewhere between these two extremes. It is not an expression of taste. Nor is it careful judgment.

6、Yet it may contain elements of both. It is a view or belief more or less casually arrived at, with or without examining the evidence.Is everyone entitled to his opinion? Of cause, this is not only permitted, but guaranteed. We are free to act on our opinions only as long as, in doing so, we do not h

12、our formal position and authority and more to do with your strategy and approach, which can range from a simple favor to convincing others to accept a priority of yours as if it were their own.Define what needs to be done.

When you make a general request for volunteers during a meeting, colleagues often interpret it as “whoever doesnt have much of an

14、ything to do can work on this“. Your chances of getting someone to volunteer thus tend to be slim. However, if you think about who might best be able to help with a task and then specifically ask that person for help, your odds of getting him or her to accept the task increase dramatically.Thank oth

15、ers for their assistance. Always thank and acknowledge others for their help. The person will feel that his or her time and energy were appreciated. In addition, you will likely be able to call on the person again in the future for assistance. But remember to return the favor when he or she needs yo

16、ur help. Such give-and-take behavior could lead to a valuable alliance.Distribute your honor. If youre congratulated for a job well done, let your supervisors know who helped you do it. Giving credit where credit is due will not only ingratiate(讨.欢心) you with your helper, but it will impress the bos

17、ses into considering you for future promotion. After all, the best managers remain those who are best at getting others to help them complete their work for the common good.6 Your success in getting others help will mainly result from .（A）your authority（B） your position（C） your relationship（D）your m

Indeed the same could happen to English as has happened to Chinese: a language of intellectuals which doesnt vary hugely alongside a large number of variations used by local peoples.We w

22、ill continue to teach other language in some form, and not just for reasons of practical use. Learning a language is good for your mental health; it forces you to understand another cultural and intellectual system. So I hope British education will develop a more rational approach to the foreign lan

27、r.All the predictions are that English will be spoken by a declining proportion of the worlds population in the 21st century.

Today, not only are there more single women available for the labor market, but there are also large numbers of married women, many of whom have children.One of the primary reasons why theres a noticeable increase in the number of e

37、ry specialized fields such as medicine, law and computer science.

40、ne of mans first inventions and yet it has also proved one of the most useful. So wide and varied are the uses of wheels, in machines and vehicles of all kinds that it is difficult to imagine what the world would be like without them.

41、rtance will perhaps be greatly reduced by the end of the century by an invention so new to be still unnamed.The invention is a machine that floats above any surface on a cushion(垫子) of air.

42、ed upside down. If air is blown into this saucer, the machine rises to a height that may vary from a few inches to a few feet.Industry is already using one form of the invention to deal with heavy loads. It can lift them with ease and since there are no wheels, and therefore no friction, they can be

43、 put into motion with the touch of a finger.The new invention, however, is having a great effect on transport. Not only does it make expensive road systems unnecessary, but it enables vehicles to travel equally well over land or water. This unique ability to reach most destinations has given rise to
