2003年4月北京成人本科學(xué)位英語(yǔ)考試題B卷

Part I  Reading Comprehension  
Passage l 
Questions l to 5 are based on the following passage:  

What will man be like in the future - in 5000 or even 50000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.  

Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundred years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.  

Again, in the modem world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones. This is likely to bring about a physical change tool the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.  

Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.  

On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.  

But what about hair? It will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.  

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at .This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own..

 [文章大意及重要詞匯]

    5000甚至50，000年之后人類會(huì)是什么樣子？當(dāng)然，我們只能作一個(gè)預(yù)測(cè)，但是可以肯定的是他們一定會(huì)和今天有所不同，因?yàn)槿祟悷o(wú)時(shí)無(wú)刻不在變化。

    我們舉個(gè)簡(jiǎn)單的例子，五百年前的人類比現(xiàn)在的人類普遍要矮，現(xiàn)在的人比五百年前的人平均要高三英寸（inch）。五百年是一個(gè)相對(duì)短的時(shí)間，所以我們可以想象（assume）到人類還會(huì)繼續(xù)（continue）變高。

     同時(shí)，現(xiàn)在的人用腦也更加頻繁。既便如此，我們也只用了大腦的20％，但是，隨著時(shí)間的流逝我們將更加頻繁的用腦，最終導(dǎo)致我們對(duì)更發(fā)達(dá)的大腦的需求，并帶來(lái)我們頭部的變化，特別是前額會(huì)變的越來(lái)越大。

     另外，人類使用他們的四肢的頻率降低，這使得四肢越來(lái)越虛弱。但是，人類的手機(jī)會(huì)越來(lái)越靈巧，因?yàn)樗鼈冊(cè)诂F(xiàn)代化的生活中使用頻繁。

     頭發(fā)會(huì)發(fā)生什么樣的變化呢？它可能從人類的身體上消失（disappear），因?yàn)樗辉谟杏?，將?lái)的人類是男性還是女性都可能會(huì)是禿頭（bald）。

    可能這些推測(cè)會(huì)讓人覺得未來(lái)的人類是非常丑陋的動(dòng)物（creature），這可能是正確的。但是不管未來(lái)的人類怎樣變化，他們和我們還是有很多相似（have a lot common）的地方的。他們?nèi)匀皇侨祟悾兄臀覀円粯拥乃枷耄╰hought）和感情（emotion）。

  [B] how future man will look like 
[C] the fact that man's organs will function differently in the future

This is likely to bring about a physical change tool the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger，隨著時(shí)間的流逝我們將更加頻繁的用腦，最終導(dǎo)致我們對(duì)更發(fā)達(dá)的大腦的需求，并帶來(lái)我們頭部的變化，特別是前額會(huì)變的越來(lái)越大。

Passage 2  
Questions 6 to 1O are based on the following passage:  

People all over the world today are beginning to hear and learn more and more about the problem of pollution. Pollution is caused either by man's release of completely new and often artificial (人造)substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance (物質(zhì)), such as oil from oil tankers into the sea.  

Whatever its underlying reasons, there is no doubt that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts. In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste. Food comes wrapped up there or four times in packages that all have to be disposed of; drinks are increasingly sold in bottles or tins which cannot be reused. This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metal and paper. Advertising has helped this process by persuading many of us no only to buy thing we neither want nor need, but also to throw away much of what we do buy. Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal (處理) of the products we use in our daily lives.

 [文章大意及重要詞匯]

     現(xiàn)在全世界的人們開始聽到關(guān)于污染問題（pollution）的討論，對(duì)它的了解也越來(lái)越多。污染主要是由于人類向自然界排放人造（artificial）物質(zhì)（substance）和自然物質(zhì)所引起的，油輪（tanker）的石油對(duì)大海的污染。

    姑且不管污染的原因是什么，毫無(wú)疑問大多數(shù)污染可以得到控制，如果公司、個(gè)人、和政府（government）都做出努力（make more efforts）。很明顯，各個(gè)家庭也需要減少垃圾和資源浪費(fèi)。有些食品進(jìn)行了三、四層包裝，但這些包裝（package）最終還需要處理掉，各種飲料也開始以瓶子和易拉罐（tin）等包裝出售，并且他們不能夠被再利用的。這樣就造成大量垃圾的出現(xiàn)，和對(duì)玻璃、金屬（metal）和紙張的浪費(fèi)。廣告（advertising）通過勸說（persuading）許多人不賣他們不需要的東西和盡量減少他們需要買的東西，有助于減輕污染。污染和浪費(fèi)問題在大家的努力下，通過減少對(duì)不必要的東西的購(gòu)買、避免無(wú)節(jié)制（excess）的使用和謹(jǐn)慎處置日常垃圾得以解決。

6. The main cause of pollution is______.  
  [A] the release of artificial or natural substances into the environment 
  [B] the production of new industrial goods 
  [C] increased amounts of a natural substance 
  [D] our ever-increasing population 
答案：A 細(xì)節(jié)題。污染的主要原因是？A，大量的人造物質(zhì)和自然物質(zhì)向自然界的排放。文章的第一段話，Pollution is caused either by man's release of completely new and often artificial substances into the environment, or by releasing greatly increased amounts of a natural substance, such as oil from oil tankers into the sea，可以看出，污染主要是由于人類向自然界排放人造物質(zhì)和自然物質(zhì)所引起的，所以選A。  

7. Much of the pollution could be controlled if only______. 
  [A] people would pay more attention to the problem 
  [B] governments would take effective measures 
  [C] all sides concerned would make more efforts 
  [D] farmers would use less artificial fertilizers  
答案：C 細(xì)節(jié)題。在什么樣的條件下，污染可以得到控制？C,有關(guān)各方都做出努力。文章第二段開頭…that much of the pollution caused could be controlled if only companies, individuals and governments would make more efforts，污染的控制需要公司、個(gè)人、和政府都做出努力。

8. Food packages, bottles and tins for drinks can cause______. 
  [A] air and water pollution 
  [B] both a litter problem and a waste of resources 
  [C] to pay for the service 
  [D] to produce the receipt  
答案：B 細(xì)節(jié)題。食品的外包裝、瓶子和易拉罐將導(dǎo)致下列那個(gè)問題？B，導(dǎo)致垃圾和資源浪費(fèi)。在文章第二段寫道，This not only causes a litter problem, but also is a great waste of resources, in terms of glass, metal and paper，這不僅造成大量垃圾的出現(xiàn)，和對(duì)玻璃、金屬和紙張的浪費(fèi)。

9. Which of the following can not help solving the problem of pollution? 
  [A] Cutting out unnecessary buying 
  [B] Eating less 
[C] Reduce excess use 
  [D] Carefully dispose our daily products. 
答案：B 細(xì)節(jié)題。下列哪一項(xiàng)對(duì)解決污染問題并沒有幫助？B,節(jié)食。見文章最后一句，Pollution and waste combine to be a problem everyone can help to solve by cutting out unnecessary buying, excess use and careless disposal of the products we use in our daily lives，污染和浪費(fèi)問題在大家的努力下，通過減少對(duì)不必要的東西的購(gòu)買、避免無(wú)節(jié)制的使用和謹(jǐn)慎處置日常垃圾得以解決，所以B項(xiàng)對(duì)解決污染問題并沒有幫助。

10. What does the underlined word "litter" mean in paragraph 2 ? 
  [A]not many  [B]serious problem  [C]bits of waste things  [D]industrial pollution 
答案：C 詞匯題?！癓itter”在文章中的意思是什么？文章中的In the home there is an obvious need to control litter and waste，通過and 可以看出它和waste 是同義詞，所以應(yīng)選C項(xiàng)垃圾之類的東西。

Passage 3  
Questions 11-15 are based on the following passage:  

Thousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano broke out. The hot liquid piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea.  

As time went on, hot san and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces, Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.

Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow first. Only they, in sunlight, could produce food from the minerals of the soil, water and air. While many animals landed on the island, they could find no food. A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch. Insects couldn't stay until there were plants for them to eat. So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island.

[文章大意及重要詞匯]

  數(shù)千年之前，在海洋（ocean）的中央，離海島只有數(shù)米遠(yuǎn)的地方一個(gè)海底火山（volcano）爆發(fā)（broke out）了，熔巖越堆越高并不斷向外擴(kuò)散，最終導(dǎo)致海面上火山島的出現(xiàn)。

     隨著時(shí)間的流逝，巖石首先在陽(yáng)光和冷雨的作用下變碎，然后又經(jīng)過海浪長(zhǎng)期的沖擊（dash），這樣循環(huán)不斷最終出現(xiàn)了泥土和沙子。

土壤上一片荒涼（naked）。然后風(fēng)和鳥帶來(lái)了植物種子、蜘蛛（spider）和別的小動(dòng)物（creature）。首先生長(zhǎng)的是植物，因?yàn)橹挥兴鼈兛梢砸揽客恋刂械牡V物質(zhì)（minerals）、水、空氣和陽(yáng)光成長(zhǎng)。雖然火山島上有很多動(dòng)物，但是他們沒有食物可吃。蜘蛛網(wǎng)也沒有任何意義，因?yàn)楦揪蜎]有昆蟲可捕捉。直到有可吃的植物時(shí)，昆蟲才可以生存。所以，植物一定是這個(gè)新島上最早的生命。  

11. The passage centers on _______. 
  [A] how an undersea volcano broke out 
  [B] how an island rose up in the sea 
  [C] how soil was formed on a new island 
  [D] how life began on a volcano- produced island 
答案：D 主旨題。文章主要講的是？D, 火山島上的東西是怎樣出現(xiàn)的。文章第一段主要是講了火山島的形成，然后論述了植物種子的出現(xiàn)，植物為動(dòng)物提供食物，火山島上的生命才出現(xiàn)，所以可以看出主題應(yīng) 該是D。

12. According to the passage, the island got its first soil from ______. 
  [A] sea waves 
  [B] its own rock 
  [C] the sand brought by the wind
[D] cool rains 
答案：B 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章，火山島上的最早的土壤來(lái)自于哪里？B,自己的巖石。文章第二段，As time went on, hot san and cool rains made the rock split and break to pieces, Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being，隨著時(shí)間的流逝，巖石首先在陽(yáng)光和冷雨的作用下變碎，然后又經(jīng)過海浪長(zhǎng)期的沖擊，這樣循環(huán)不斷最終出現(xiàn)了泥土和沙子。

13 .The word "naked" (in Para. 3) could be replaced by which of the following? 
  [A] hidden   [C]mysterious    [B] new    [D]bare
答案：D 詞匯題。文章中的“naked”可以被下列哪個(gè)代替？D, 赤裸的，無(wú)遮蔽的，空的。文章第三段話，Nothing lived on the naked soil，土壤上一片荒涼，應(yīng)選D。

14 . The order of coming into being on the island is_______. 
  [A] soil, plants and animals 
  [B] soil, little creatures and plants 
  [C] soil, birds and plants 
  [D] soil, human beings and animals 
答案：A 細(xì)節(jié)題?；鹕綅u上下列事物出現(xiàn)的順序是？A, 土壤，植物，動(dòng)物。文章最后一段，So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island，所以植物應(yīng)該是排在土壤后面的。

15 .According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE ? 
  [A] Spiders were the first life that could live on the island. 
  [B] The island is far away from any piece of land. 
  [C] Insects could not live on the island without plants 
[D] Plants were brought to the island by human beings 
答案：C 細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章下列哪一句話是正確的？C,沒有植物昆蟲無(wú)法在島上生存。文章最后，Insects couldn't stay until there were plants for them to eat，直到有可吃的植物時(shí)，昆蟲才可以生存。

Passage 4  
Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:  

Sports and games make our bodies strong, prevent us from getting too fat, and keep us healthy. But these are not their only use. They give us valuable practice in making eyes, brain and muscles work together. In tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then arms, legs, and so on, so that the ball is met and hit back where it ought to go. All this must happen with very great speed, and only those who have had a lot of practice at tennis can carry out this complicated chain of events successfully. For those who work with their brains most of the day, the practice of such skills is especially useful.  

Sports and games are also very useful for character-training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage, discipline and love of one's country; but what is learned in books cannot have the same deep effect on a child's character　as what is learned by experience. The ordinary day-school cannot give much practical training in living, because most of the pupils' time is spent in classes, studying lessons. So it is what the pupils do in their spare time that really prepares them to take their place in society as citizens when they grow up. If each of them learns to work for his team end not for himself On the football field, he　will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.  

[文章大意及重要詞匯]

    體育鍛煉讓我們體格強(qiáng)壯，避免（prevent…from）我們變的太胖，從而使我們保持健康。他們的好處還不止這些。網(wǎng)球給了我們的眼睛、大腦和肌肉（muscle）彼此協(xié)作的有益練習(xí)。打網(wǎng)球時(shí)候，我們的眼睛看著網(wǎng)球的來(lái)來(lái)往往，判斷（judge）它的速度（speed）和方向（direction），并把信息（information）反饋給大腦。由大腦最終決定如何行動(dòng)，大腦然后把命令傳給胳膊和腿部肌肉，這樣就可以很自如的接球和出球。這些動(dòng)作都發(fā)生在一瞬間，只有那些在網(wǎng)球方面鍛煉了很長(zhǎng)時(shí)間的人，才能出色的完成這一系列動(dòng)作。對(duì)那些從事智力勞動(dòng)的人，這種技能的訓(xùn)練更是必要的。

    體育鍛煉對(duì)性格的塑造（character-training）也有很大幫助。在學(xué)校學(xué)習(xí)期間，孩子們可能學(xué)了很多諸如，無(wú)私（unselfishness）、勇氣（courage）、紀(jì)律（discipline）和愛國(guó)等品德。但是從書上學(xué)到的東西遠(yuǎn)沒有從實(shí)際經(jīng)驗(yàn)（experience）中學(xué)到的東西對(duì)孩子的性格塑造影響大。學(xué)校通常不能給孩子足夠的關(guān)于如何生活的培訓(xùn)，因?yàn)楹⒆觽兇蟛糠值臅r(shí)間都花在學(xué)習(xí)上。這樣孩子們?cè)谡n余時(shí)間所做的，才真正影響他們的性格，使他們長(zhǎng)大后在社會(huì)上勇于承擔(dān)他們應(yīng)該承擔(dān)的責(zé)任。如果大家在足球場(chǎng)上都學(xué)著為他的團(tuán)隊(duì)而不是為他自己的話，那么等他長(zhǎng)大之后他也會(huì)覺得為國(guó)家的利益（benefit）而不是為個(gè)人利益去奮斗是理所當(dāng)然的（natural）。

16. When we play tennis we have to _____.

答案：B 細(xì)節(jié)題。打網(wǎng)球的時(shí)侯我們必須？B，讓我們的眼睛、大腦、肌肉幾乎同時(shí)工作。本文第一段，They give us valuable practice in making eyes, brain and muscles work together。

17. The "complicated chain of events" refers to_______. 
[A] the passing of information and making of decisions 
[B] the meeting and hitting back of the ball 
[C] the coordinated movements of our eyes, brain and muscles 
[D] a lot of practice before playing tennis 
答案：C 細(xì)節(jié)題。這一系列復(fù)雜的動(dòng)作是指―－C，對(duì)我們的眼睛、大腦、肌肉的協(xié)調(diào)。文章中的In tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then arms, legs, and so on, so that the ball is met and hit back where it ought to go。

18 . By "character-training", the author means that sports and games can help children_____. 
[A] live a better life when they grow up 
[B] know better how to behave properly in their future life 
[C] understand better the virtues they learn in books 
[D] all of the above 
答案：B 推理題。文章中的性格鍛煉是指體育鍛煉可以讓孩子們？B,在將來(lái)的生活中有適當(dāng)?shù)难孕信e止。本文第二段是關(guān)于這一點(diǎn)的敘述。

[A] what he does out of class 
[B] what he learns in books 
[C] his place in society 
[D] his lessons in school 
答案：C 細(xì)節(jié)題。作者看來(lái)，小孩的性格受什么影響最大？C, 他在社會(huì)中的位子。文中，So it is what the pupils do in their spare time that really prepares them to take their place in society as citizens when they grow up，孩子們?cè)谡n余時(shí)間所做的，才真正影響他們的性格，使他們長(zhǎng)大后在社會(huì)上勇于承擔(dān)他們應(yīng)該承擔(dān)的責(zé)任。

  [C] the football field   [D] the climate   
答案：B 推理題。下列哪一項(xiàng)對(duì)足球隊(duì)最重要？B,合作。最后一句話，If each of them learns to work for his team end not for himself On the football field, he　will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.
