Each passage is followed by five questions orincomplete statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C,D. You shoulddecide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer-Sheet.Passage 1A happy life and a meaningful life are not the same .Leading a happy life is associated with being a “taker”,while leading a meaningful life corresponds with being a “giver”.Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want. People who are happy tent to think that life is easy. They are in good physical health and able to buy the things that they need and want. Happiness is about satisfying our needs and desires. The pursuit(追求) of happiness is often associated with selfish behavior. Animals have needs and desires and they can feel happy too. What sets human beings apart form animals is not the pursuit of happiness, but the pursuit of meaning, which is unique to humans.We can often find meaning in helping others or marking a sacrifice( 牺牲) for a “greater good”. Meaning often comes at the expense of happiness. When people have invested themselves in something bigger than themselves, they worry more and have higher levels of stress and anxiety in their lives than happy people. Volunteering ( 做义工) in rural schools, for example, is meaningful but also involves hardship.Happiness, like any emotion, is felt in the here and now --it eventually fades away .However, meaning is enduring. It connects the past to the present to the future.46.What is the main idea if the passage ?A. A happy life is basically different form a meaningful life.B. Leading a happy life is connected with being a “take”.C. Happiness is about feeling good and getting what we want.D. Meaning connected the past to the present to the future.47. Paragraph 2 tells us that the pursuit of happiness.A. sets humans apart form animalsB. is associated with selfish behaviorC. means to give up what one hasD. is unique to human being48. Form Paragraph 3 we know that.A. helping others can make our life meaningfulB. meaning comes together with happinessC. happy people have higher levels of anxietyD. volunteering in rural schools makes a happy life49. It is implied in Paragraph 4 that.A. meaning will disappear sooner or laterB. living a happy life means to be a “giver”C. happiness lasts a relatively short period of timeD. making a sacrifice for a “greater good” brings us happiness50. The passage is organized by.A. giving examplesB. making contrastsC. definingD. classifyingPassage 2Our traditional belief has it that morning larks are most likely to be healthy, wealthy and wise .But those who are to bed and early to rise do not always have the upper hand (占上风). Researchers have revealed that night owls(夜猫子) are generally brighter and wealthier than able to get up early in the morning.Experts examined the habits of 1,000 youngsters to determine whether they liked to stay up late and sleep in later in the morning, or preferred to go to bed early. School performance and inductive(归纳的) reasoning were measured and academic (学业的) ades in the major subjects were also taken into consideration.The results show that evening types score higher than morning types on inductive reason in which has been shown to be a good estimate of general intelligence and academic performance .The night owls also have a greater capacity to think conceptually (概念性地) and analyze. Such abilities have been linked to creative thinking, better jobs and higher incomes.Morning larks, however, often get better exam results in school, possibly because lessons are held at wrong time of day for night owls.51. The underlined expression”morning larks”in Paragraph 1refers to .A. birds which scream late at nightB. birds which sing early in the morningC. People who like to stay up late at nightD. people who are early to rise in the morning52. Traditionally, we hold that.A. Morning larks do not always have the upper handB. Nights owls are generally brighter and wealthierC. Morning larks tend to be healthy, wealthy and wiseD. Night owls often get better exam results in school53. Why did expels examine the teenagers on their habits?A. To measure their inductive reasoning.B. To measure their school performance.C. To determine whether they are night owls or not.D. To know their academic grades in major subjects.54. Paragraph 3 tells US that.A. night owls have a poorer capacity to analyzeB. night owls score higher on inductive reasoningC. morning larks are more likely to get better jobsD. morning larks are more likely to get higher incomes55. Morning larks often score higher in exams, possible because.A. they are generally brighterB. they are early to bed and early to riseC. they have a greater capacity to analyzeD. the arrangement of lessons fits their body clocksPassage 3While drunken driving may be decreasing, traffic safety experts remain troubled how to cope with another alcohol-related problem; drunken pedestrian( 行人) 。

2013年浙江专升本(英语)真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)全部题型 2. Reading Comprehension 3. Cloze 5. Translation 6. WritingReading ComprehensionA quality education is the ultimate liberator. It can free people form poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society. It can also free communities and countries, allowing them to leap forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible. For this reason, the international community has committed itself to getting all the world’s children into primary school by 2015, a commitment known as Education for All. Can Education for All be achieved by 2015? The answer is definitely”yes” , although it is a difficult task. If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum of five years of primary school, instead of just enrolling for classes, which used to be the measuring stick for education, the challenge will become even more difficult. Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates. The number rises to 88 if completion rates are used as the standard. Still, the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community. 59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems. They also need significant increases in external(外部的)financing and technical support. The 29 countries lagging(落后)farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented(空前的)rates of progress. But this is attainable with creative solutions, including the use of information technologies, flexible and targeted foreign aid, and fewer people living in poverty. A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country’s capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies, institutions and management. Where a country scores well on these standards, foreign assistance can be highly effective.1.It can be inferred from the passage that a quality education has the function of______.A.helping a country free from foreign ruleB.making people become wealthyC.giving people more power and freedomD.speeding up the progress of society正确答案:B解析:推断题。
2013专升本英语作文Title: The Importance of Lifelong Learning。
In today's fast-paced and ever-changing world, the need for lifelong learning has become increasingly important. With the rapid advancement of technology and globalization, the skills and knowledge acquired through traditional education are no longer sufficient to keep up with the demands of the modern workforce. Therefore, it is crucial for individuals to embrace the concept of lifelong learning in order to stay competitive and relevant in their careers.Lifelong learning refers to the continuous acquisition of knowledge and skills throughout one's life. It is not limited to formal education, but also includes informal learning through various experiences and interactions. In the past, people may have viewed education as somethingthat ends once they graduate from school or college. However, in today's knowledge-based economy, learning has become a lifelong process that is essential for personaland professional development.One of the key reasons why lifelong learning is important is the rapid pace of technological advancement. New technologies are constantly being developed, and the skills required to use them are constantly evolving.

Lifelong learning allows individuals to adapt to these changes and stay ahead of the curve.Furthermore, lifelong learning is essential for personal growth and development.

By continuously learning and challenging themselves, individuals can enhance their creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills. This not only benefits them in their careers but also enriches their lives on a personal level.Moreover, lifelong learning is crucial for staying relevant in an increasingly globalized world. As the worldbecomes more interconnected, individuals are required to work with people from diverse cultural backgrounds and navigate through complex global issues. Lifelong learning helps individuals develop cultural competence, communication skills, and a global mindset, which are essential for success in a globalized society.In conclusion, lifelong learning is an essential component of personal and professional success in today's world. It is a lifelong journey that empowers individuals to adapt to change, pursue personal growth, and thrive in a globalized society.

Perhaps you should try a Segway!The Segway is perfect for short journey. It´s an electric vehicle that consists of a platform between two wheels,with a pole that connects the platform to the handlebars. To ride it,you step up onto the platform,and control the Segway by moving your body. Lean forwards to go faster,and backwards to slow down.On older models, direction is controlled by a twist grip(扭转把手)on the left handlebar. This varies the speeds between the two motors, a decrease in the speed of the left wheel would turn the Segway to the left. With newer models you simply lean to the left or right. Meanwhile, a gyroscope(陀螺仪)detects your movements and prevents the machine from falling over. The Segway has a maximum speed of 19 km per hour and a range of about 38 km. After that,you need to plug it in and recharge the battery.Segways are used for a variety of purposes. People with mobility problems can now enjoy walks in the country with their friends and family. Some golfers use them as an alternative to the golf cart. And dog owners now have an easier way to take the dog to the park. A few police forcesuse Seg-ways,too. They allow officers to move quickly whilst maintaining contact with the public. They´ re also becoming a common sight on airport. However, the most popular use is in tourism, particularly for city tours. Visit any major tourist city in summer,sit outside a cafe for a while and there´ s a good chance you’ll see a group of tourists passing on Segways.第21题What is the Segway according to this passage?A.A pole that connects two handlebars.B.A newly appeared public traffic vehicle.C.A bicycle with a platform between two wheels.D.An electric two-wheeled vehicle for short trips.第22题How do you turn to the left on Segways of newer models?A.Lean to the left.B.Adjust the twist grip.C.Press the left bar.D.Control the gyroscope.第23题How far can you travel on a Segway at most?A.Less than 19 km.B.About 19 km.C.About 38 km.D.More than 38 km.第24题The last paragraph focuses on______.A.what a Segway is likeB.where to find a SegwayC.how to control a SegwayD.when a Segway is useful上一题下一题(25~28/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Today was the day that they had enough money in hand to make a down payment on the house. But the real estate(房地产)agent informed them that she had received another offer for the house. Although the other offer was slightly less than that of Nancy and John´s, that person with the new offer was willing to pay the whole amount at once. The owner,in urgent need of money,wanted to accept the second offer.Nancy and John looked at each other with disappointed looks. They walked back home feeling very low about having lost the house. Soon they recovered and involved themselves into their daily lives,though once in a while Nancy would sink into a mild depression over losing the house.One day Nancy woke up in the morning feeling even lower than usual. She kept feeling sick,even lost interest in her routine coffee. She put all these symptoms down to the stress of working hard and losing her dream house. A week passed and she seemed to get worse. John was worried and insisted on taking her to the doctor. The doctor, after taking a few tests, informed them with a huge smile that Nancy was two months pregnant! John and Nancy were overjoyed but also worried about not having their own house before the baby was born.One evening Nancy wandered into the street where her dream house was,and as she passed by it,she was surprised to see that there were notices stuck on all the houses. On closer examination she found that the notices were for all the residents to move out of the houses as they were building a highway and the whole row of houses needed to be pulled down. Nancy suddenly realized that not getting her dream house had been a blessing in disguise. She thanked God and decided to be happy with the blessings she had and started looking forward to the birth of her child.第25题Why did Nancy and her husband lose their dream house?A.They couldn´ t pay the whole amount for the house at once.B.Someone else offered more money for the house.C.They couldn´t afford the advance for the house.D.The house owner decided not to sell the house.第26题How did they feel after they lost their dream house?A.They felt sorry and hardly recovered.B.They felt relieved but with little regret.C.They enjoyed their daily lives all the same.D.They were depressed but tried to adjust themselves.第27题What did Nancy find about the house one day?A.It would be on sale again.B.It would be pulled down.C.It had been redecorated.D.It had been emptied.第28题What does the phrase "a blessing in disguise" in the last paragraph mean?A.A good luck.B.A dirty trick.C.A secret wish.D.A false alarm.上一题下一题(29~32/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Most of the guests who come on our trips have never been to Egypt before. We want to make everyone comfortable and at ease,but we do always get the same questions in advance of a trip.So here I will give you some travel tips. What should I wear?If you´ re lucky enough to visit Egypt between November and February, pack a sweater. You’ll need it—the desert gets chilly at night. During the day, the temperature will be agreeable and comfortable. Any other time,pack as if you´re going to Phoenix or Vegas in August. For the ladies,bathing suits are normal if there´ s a pool where you ´ re going, but leave the string bikini at home—it is a Muslim country,after all. Last,if you are planning on visiting any mosques or certain parts of upper Egypt,ladies will need to plan on bringing something that comes at least to the elbow,and no shorts for men or women in those areas. What special things do I need to pack?One of my favorite things in the world to bring to Egypt is an Evian Mister, a sprayer with a fine mist of Evian water. You may be able to find it in your local drug store. Spray a little on your face or head,and your body temperature will feel like it´s dropped 10 or 15 degrees. Other items include your camera,sun block and extra batteries.How do I communicate with home?Internet cafes are plentiful everywhere, especially in Cairo, Luxor, and Alexandria. If you have international calling on your phone, you should be able to use it—AT&T and Sprint both work internationally for sure,but make sure you have the international coverage. A satellite phone is best if you are certain to need coverage in the middle of the country, like while sailing up the Nile, but for most people these days a cell phone is fine. What medical preparation do I need?In a word: none! The one thing you may come down with in Egypt is politely called " Pharoah´s Revenge". The thing that knocks out Pharoah´ s Revenge is a regionally produced medicine,and is available at every drugstore for $1 a box. DON´T drink local water,DO drink bottled water,avoid the skins of fresh vegetables,and you’ll be fine.第29题What clothing is proper for ladies visiting a mosque?A.String bikinis.B.Long-sleeve clothes.C.Bathing suits.D.Shorts.第30题What´ s the use of an Evian Mister?A.To relieve your thirst.B.To prevent sunburns.C.To cool yourself down.D.To drive away insects.第31题What information is provided about distance communication?A.A cell phone is enough for most people.B.AT&T and Sprint offer free service in Egypt.C.A satellite phone doesn´ t work in Mid-Egypt.D.Internet cafes are only available in big cities.第32题What does "Pharoah´ s Revenge" probably refer to in the last paragraph?A.A curse.B.A legend.C.A disease.D.A vegetable.上一题下一题(33~36/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part.

Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.It was a beautiful day for sightseeing around downtown Portland. We were on our day off and out for some fun. The weather was perfect for a picnic,so when lunch time came,we set our sights on a small park in town. Since we all had different tastes,we decided to split up,get what each of us wanted, and meet back on the grass in a few minutes.When my friends Robby headed for a hot dog stand, I decided to keep her company. We watched the seller put together the perfect hot dog,just the way Robby wanted it. But when she took out her money to pay him,the man surprised us."It looks a bit smaller on the cool side, "he said, "so never mind paying me. This will be my freebie of the day. "We said our thanks,joined our friends in the park,and dug into our food. But as we talked and ate,I noticed a man sitting alone nearby,looking at us. I could tell that he hadn´ t showered for days. Another homeless person,I thought,like all the others you see in cities. I didn´ t pay much more attention than that.We finished eating and decided to head -off for more sightseeing. But when Robby and I went to the garbage can to throw away my lunch bag, I heard a strong voice, " There isn´ t any food in that bag,is there?"It was the man who had been watching us. I didn´ t know what to say. "No,I ate it already. " "Oh,"was his only answer, with no shame in his voice at all. He was obviously hungry, couldn´ t bear to see anything thrown away, and was used to asking this question.I felt bad for the man,but I didn´t know what I could do. That´ s when Robby said, "I’ll be right back. Please wait for me a minute," and ran off. I watched curiously as she went across to the hot dog stand. Then I realized what she was doing. She bought a hot dog,crossed back to the garbage can,and gave the hungry man the food.When she came back to us, Robby said simply," I was just passing on the kindness that someone gave to me. "第33题Why did the seller offer Robby a free hot dog?A.It was offered for a large order.B.The hot dog didn´t look big enough.C.It was a special favor to a lady customer.D.The seller gave away a free hot dog every day.第34题Which word best describes the homeless man?A.Angry.B.Untidy.C.Sensitive.D.Impolite.第35题Why did Robby go back to the hot dog seller?A.She wanted to thank the hot dog seller.B.The homeless man asked her for a hot dog.C.She wanted to buy a hot dog for the homeless man.D.The hot dog was so delicious that Robby wanted another.第36题What is the theme of this passage?A.The rich should help the poor.B.One good turn deserves another.C.Kindness is the greatest wisdom.D.A kindness shown,a kindness sown.上一题下一题(37~40/共20题)Part ⅢReading ComprehensionDirections:There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D]. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet.Whatever you do,don´t challenge a chimpanzee named Ayumu to a number memory game.In 2007, Ayumu became famous for his lightning speed at a game that goes like this: A player views a computer screen where the numbers 1 through 9 appear briefly at once and then turn to white squares. The player then taps the squares where the numbers had been,in order from 1 to 9. People can do it. But no human competitor has ever completed the game faster or more accurately than Ayumu the chimp. For almost five years Ayumu remains undefeated.Psychologist Nicholas Humphrey of Darwin College at Cambridge University in England now thinks he knows the secret behind the chimp´ s ability. Humphrey suspects Ayumu´ s brain may have a condition that allows the chimp to see numbers as colors. This would mean that Ayumu may see a color glow after the number disappears. Then,instead of remembering the numbers,he remembers a sequence of colors, each associated with a number.The condition that Humphrey believes Ayumu may have is called synesthesia. Humans with synesthesia may associate numbers and letters with colors. For example,a person may see the number "5"as the color blue. Until now,scientists had assumed only humans could have synesthesia.Humphrey found the inspiration for his idea at a 2011 scientific conference. There, he heard a presentation about Ayumu´ s memory abilities and another talk about synesthesia. He then put the two ideas together.Not everyone is convinced that Humphrey is correct. Primatologist Tetsuro Matsuzawa of the Primate Research Institute at Kyoto University in Japan has spent decades studying the amazing memories of chimpanzees, including Ayumu. He maintains that chimps simply have faster memory recall than people.第37题What is Ayumu famous for?A.His gift in playing computers.B.His talent in calculating numbers.C.His skill in tapping the numbered squares.D.His amazing performance in a memory game.第38题Which of the following is true of Nicholas Humphrey?A.He thinks Ayumu has an amazing memory.B.He believes that Ayumu sees the colors of numbers.C.He was inspired by Primatologist Tetsuro Matsuzawa.D.He delivered a speech on synesthesia at the 2011 conference.第39题Where does Humphrey get the inspiration for his idea?A.From an experiment.B.From a conference.C.From a research on chimpanzees.D.From the color blue.第40题How does Tetsuro Matsuzawa explain Ayumu´ s performance in the game?A.Ayumu uses synesthesia.B.Ayumu is cleverer than most chimps.C.Chimps recall things faster than people.D.Chimps are good at dealing with number.上一题下一题(41~55/共15题)Part IV ClozeDirections:For each blank in the following passage, there are four choices marked [A]、[B]、[C] and [D].

PartⅠReading Comprehension(共60分Section A(共20小题,每小题2分,共40分Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.Arthur Miller (1915—2005 is universally recognized as one of the greatest dramatists of the 20th century. Miller's father had moved to the USA from Austria -Hungary, drawn like so many others by the “Great American Dream”. However, he experienced severe financial hardship when his family business was ruined in the Great Depression of the early 1930s.Miller's most famous play, Death of a Salesman, is a powerful attack on the American system, with its aggressive way of doing business and its insistence on money and social status as indicators of worth. In Willy Loman, the hero of the play, we see a man who has got into trouble with this sy stem. Willy is “burnt out” and in the cruel world of business there is no room for sentiment: if he can't do the work, then he is no good to his employer, the Wagner Company, and he must go. Willy is painfully aware of this, and at a loss as to what to do with his lack of success. He refuses to face the fact that he has failed and kills himself in the end.When it was first staged in 1949, the play was greeted with enthusiastic reviews, and it won the Tony Award for Best Play, the New York Drama Critics' Circle Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. It was the first play to win all three of these major awards.Miller died of heart failure at his home in Roxbury, Connecticut, on the evening of February 10, 2005, the 56th anniversary of the first performance of Death of a Salesman on Broadway.1.Why did Arthur Miller's father move to the USA?A. He suffered from severe hunger in his home country.B. He was attracted by the “Great American Dream.”C. He hoped to make his son a dramatist.D. His family business failed2.The play Death of a Salesman________.A. exposes the cruelty of the American business worldB. discusses the ways to get promoted in a companyC. talks about the business career of Arthur MillerD. focuses on the skills in doing business3.What can we learn about Willy Loman?A. He treats his employer badly.B. He runs the Wagner Company.C. He is a victim of the American system.D. He is regarded as a hero by his colleagues.4 After it was first staged, Death of a Salesman________.A. achieved huge successB. won the first Tony AwardC. was warmly welcomed by salesmenD. was severely attacked by dramatists5.What is the text mainly about?A. Arthur Miller and his family.B. The awards Arthur Miller won.C. The hardship Arthur Miller experienced.D. Arthur Miller and his best-known play.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage.Pronouncing a language is a skill. Every normal person is expert in the skill of pronouncing his own language; but few people are even moderately proficient at pronouncing foreign languages. Now there are many reasons for this,some obvious. But I suggest that the fundamental reason why people in general do not speak foreign languages very much better than they do is that they fail to grasp the true nature of the problem of learning to pronounce,and consequently never set about dealing with it in the right way. Far too many people fail to realize that pronouncing a foreign language in a skill-one that needs careful training of a special kind,and one that cannot be acquired by just leaving it to take care of itself. I think even teachers of language ,while recognizing the importance of a good accent,tend to neglect,in their practical teaching,the branch of study concerned with speaking the language. So the first point I want to make is that English pronunciation must be taught; the teacher should be prepared to devote some of the lesson time to this,and by his whole attitude to the subject he should get the student to feel that here is a matter worthy of receiving his close attention. So,there should be occasions when other aspects of English,such as grammar or spelling,are allowed forthe ,moment to take second place.Apart from this question of the time given to pronunciation,there are two other requirements for the teacher:the first,knowledge,se second,technique.It is important that the teacher should be in possession of the necessary information. This can generally be obtained from books. It is possible to get from books some idea of the mechanics of speech,and of want we call general phonetic theory. It is also possible in this way to get a clear mental picture of the relationship between the sounds of different languages,between the speech habits and English people and those,say,of your students. Unless the teacher has such a picture, any comments he may make on hisstudents …pronunciation are unlikely to be of much use,and lesson time spent on pronunciation may well be time wasted.But it doesn…t follow that you can teach pronunciation successfully as soo n as you have read the necessary books. It depends after that what use you make of your knowledge; and this is a matter of technique.5.According to the author,________pronouncing foreign languages.A. only a few people are really proficient inB. no one is really an expert in the skill ofC. there aren…t many people who are even fairly good atD. there are even some people who are moderately proficient in6.

Never, Never Give UpWe often hear peopl e say, “Never give up.”These can be encouraging words and words of determination. A person who believes in them will keep trying to reach his goal no matter how many times he fails. In my opinion, the quali ty(质量) of determination(决心) to succeed is an important one to have. Therefore, I believe that we shoul d never give up.One reason is that if we give up too easily, we will rarely achieve anything. It is not unusual for us to fail in our first attempt at something new, so we shoul d not feel discourage d and shoul d try again. Besides, if we always give up when we fail, we will not be able to develop new skills and grow as peopl e. Another reason we shoul d never give up is that we can learn from our mistakes only if we make a new effort. If we do not try again , the lesson we have learned is waste d. Final ly, we shoul d never give up because as we work to reach our goals, we develop confidence, and this confidence can help us succeed in other areas of our lives. If we never challenge ourselves, we will begin to doubt our abilities.In short, it is important that we do not give up when working for our goals. Whether we succeed in the end or not, we will learn something, and what we learn will help us to becom e better, more confident peopl e. Furthermore, if we give up, we have non chanc e of attaining our goals, but if we keep trying, there is always a chanc e that we will succeed one day.参考译文:永不放弃我们常听到人们说:“永远不要放弃。
