浙江师范大学成教学士学位外语考试模拟试卷（一）

　　Part I: Reading Comprehension. (40%)

　　Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is fol1owed 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 corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

　　Passage One:

　　Questions l to 5 are based on the following passage:

　　Human needs seem endless. When a hungry man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat. When a manager gets a new sports car, a big house and pleasure boats dance into view. The needs of mankind might be regarded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears. The first and most basic level of needs involves food. Once this level is satisfied, the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of housing, appears. By the end of World War II, these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans.Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.By1957 or 1958 this third level of needs was fairly well satisfied.

　　Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared: the“1ife-enriching”1eve1. While the other levels involve physica1 satisfaction, this leve1 stresses mental needs for achievement and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services，many of which could be ca11ed“1uxury” items. Among them are vacation trips, the best medica1 and dental care, and recreation. Also included here are fancy goods and the latest styles in c1othing. 0n the fourth leve1, a lot of money is spent on services,while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance,crime, and prejudice. After fi11ing our stomachs, our clothes c1osets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fu11y the good things on the first four levels.

　　1. According to the passage, man wi11 begin to think about such needs as housing and c1othing only when_ .

　　A) he has saved up enough money

　　B) he has grown dissatisfied with his simple shelter

　　C) he has satisfied his hunger

　　D) he has learned to build houses

　　2. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War II, most Americans .

　　A) were very rich B) lived in poverty

　　C) had the good things on the first three levels

　　D) did not own automobiles

　　3. Which of the fo11owing is NOT related to“physica1 satisfaction”?

　　A)A successfu1 career. B)A comfortable home.

　　C)A good mea1. D)A family car.

　　4. What is the main concern of man on the fourth leve1?

　　A) The more goods the better.

　　B) The more menta1 satisfaction the better.

　　C) The more“1uxury” items the better.

　　D) The more earnings the better.

　　5. The author tends to think that the fifth leve1 .

　　A) would be little better than the fourth leve1

　　B) may be a 1ot more desirable than the first four

　　C) can be the last and most satisfying leve1

　　D) can be achieved best by community action

　　Passage2

　　Questions 6 to l0 are based on the following passage:

　　There are two factors which determine an individua1's inte11igence. The first is the sort of brain he is born with. But no matter how good a brain he has to begin with, an individua1 wi11 have a low order of inte11igence unless he has opportunities to learn. So the second factor is the sort of environment in which he is brought up. If an individua1 is handicapped environmenta11y, it is likely that his brain wi11 fai1 to develop and he wi11 never reach the leve1 of intelligence of which he is capable.

　　The importance of environment in determining an individua1's inte1ligence can

　　be shown by the case history of the identica1 twins, Peter and Mark X. Being identical, the twins had identical brains at birth, and their growth processes were the same. When the twins were three months old, their parents died, and they were placed in separate homes. Peter was brought up by parents of 1ow inte11igence in an isolated community with poor educationa1 opportunities. Mark was reared in the home of we11-to-do parents who had been to co11ege. He was read to as a child, sent to good schools, and given every opportunity to be stimulated inte1lectua11y. This environmenta1 difference continued until the twins were in their late teens, when they were given tests to measure their inte11igence. Mark's I.Q. was125, twenty-five points higher than the average and fu11y forty points higher than his identica1 brother. Given equa1 opportunities, the twins, having identica1 brains, would have tested at roughly the same leve1.

　　6. This selection can best be titled .

　　A) Measuring Your Intelligence

　　B) Inte1ligence and Environment

　　C) The Case of Peter and Mark

　　D) How the Brain Influences Inte11igence

　　7. The best statement of the main idea of this passage is that .

　　A) human brains differ considerably

　　B) the brain a person is born with is important in determining his inte11igence

　　C) environment is important in determining a person's intelligence

　　D) persons having identica1 brains wi11 have roughly the same inte11igence

　　8. According to the passage, the average LQ. Is .

　　A) 85 B)100 C)110 D)125

　　9. The case history of the twins appears to support the conclusion that .

　　A) individuals with identica1 brains seldom test at the same leve1

　　B) an individua1's inte11igence is determined only by his environment

　　C) lack of opportunity b1ocks the growth of inte11igence

　　D) changes of environment produce changes in the structure of the brain

　　10. This passage suggests that an individua1's I.Q. .

　　A) can be predicted at birth

　　B) stays the same throughout his life

　　C) is determined by his childhood

　　D) can be increased by education

　　Passage3

　　Questions ll to 15 are based on the following passage:

　　You have been badly injured in a car accident. It is necessary to give you a blood transfusion because you 1ost a great dea1 of blood in the accident. However, special care must be taken in selecting new blood for you. If the blood is too different from your own, the transfusion could ki11 you.

　　There are four basic types of blood: A, B, AB and 0. A simple test can indicate a person's blood type. Everybody is born with one of these four types of blood. Blood type, like hair color and height, is inherited from parents.

　　Because of substances contained in each type, the four groups must be transfused carefu11y. Basica11y, A and B cannot be mixed. A and B cannot receive AB, but AB may receive A or B. O can give to any other group; hence, it is often ca11ed the universal donor. For the opposite reason, AB is sometimes called universa1 recipient. However, because so many reactions can occur in transfusions, patients usua11y receive only salt or plasma(1iquid) unti1 their blood can be matched as exactly as possible in the blood bank of a hospital. In this way, it is possible to avoid any bad reactions to the transfusion.

　　There is a relationship between your blood type and your nationality. Among

　　Europeans and people of European ancestry, about 42 percent have type A while 45 percent have type O. The rarest is type AB. Other races have different percentages. For example, some American Indian groups have nearly 100 percent type O.

　　11. If the blood is too different from your own in blood transfusion, .

　　A) it may save you B) it has no effect

　　C) it could ki11 you D) it is very safe

　　12. People with type B blood can receive blood type_ .

　　A)AB B) B C)A D)both B and O

　　13. If you need a transfusion, the best and safest blood for you is .

　　A) type AB

　　B) exactly the same type as yours

　　C) a mixture of salt, plasma, and type O

　　D) either A or O

　　14. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

　　A) There is no relationship between blood and nationality.

　　B) Almost all of some American Indian groups have type O.

　　C) Blood type isn't inherited from parents.

　　D)Among Europeans and people of European ancestry, the rarest is type O.

　　15. The passage is mainly about .

　　A) the relationship between blood and nationality

　　B) transfusion

　　C) human blood types

　　D) blood and gene

　　Passage4

　　Questions l6 to 20 are based on the following passage:

　　Last week I visited one of my old neighborhoods in Washington D.C.. I had not been there for twenty years and as I walked along the street, my mind was flooded by memories of the past. I saw the old apartment building where I had lived and the playground where I had played. As I viewed these once unfamiliar surroundings, images of myself as a child there came to mind. However, what I saw and what I remembered were not the same. I sadly realized that the best memories are those left untouched.

　　My old apartment building, as I remember, was bright and alive. It was more that just a place to live. It was a movie house, a space station, or whatever my young mind could imagine. I would steal away with my friends and play in the basement. This was always exciting because it was so cool and dark, and there were so many things there to hide among. There was a small river in the back of the building. We would go there to lie in the shade of trees and enjoy ourselves.

　　However, what I saw was completely different. The apartment building was now in disrepair. What was once more than a place to live looked hardly worth living n .the windows were all broken. The once clean walls were covered with dirty marks. The river was hardly recognizable. The water was polluted and the trees and flowers were all dead. The once sweet smelling river now smelled terrible. It was really heart breaking to see all this.

　　I do not regret having seen my old neighborhood. However, I do not think my innocent childhood memories can ever be the same. I suppose it is true when they say, “You can never go home again.”
