1.成人学位英语考试真题 篇一

第三次参加学位英语考试，刚刚查过分数幸运的过了(72 分) ，不禁感慨万千，想跟其他正在准备考的或已经考过的同学谈谈我的三级学位英语考试的经历和其中的一些想法，

第一次参加考试是 年11 月，由于自我感觉基础还可以，就没有系统实在的复习，自己断断续续背背大学英语四和五的单词，看看原来上学时候买的语法书，除此以外也就没花太多的时间。可想而之考试的时候，感觉似是而非，最终仅考了53 分。

第二次是 年11 月的考试，由于工作原因错过了2005 年4 月份的报考，所以11 月份才又一次参加考试，这次考试可以说我已经意识到了要系统全面的复习才可能突破这看起来蛮少的7 分，而且我也收集了有关考试的习题及资料，甚至还买了北京某高校出版的三级复习资料。但是在这其间还要准备四门课的学习和论文的事情，正好又经历了的换工作，并从一个城市到另一个城市。所以真正静下来复习的时间可能也就一个月左右，资料是收集到了不少，感觉也比上次复习得更全面了，但最终还是失败了，而且才考了51 分。后来回想起来觉得是没有扎扎实实，脚踏实地看书，总想投机取巧。这种想法迷惑了自己。最让我感到痛心的是所有的课程及论文都已达到申请学位的要求了，可就是英语没过，而且一直以来，英语还是我比较喜欢好的一门课。因为年龄的原因，我已经没有太多次重考的机会了，而且自己也不怎么想考了。当时简直是有一点绝望了。

这之后，我认真地总结了一下前两次失败的教训。首先我认为最主要的一点是自己本身没有给与这件事足够的重视，而且本身基础也不是像自己想象的那么好，而且年龄大了，惰性也大。第二，我根本不了解成人三级英语考试的特点、考点以及考试的侧重，完全是按照准备一般英语考试的思路在准备，没有针对性，最重要的一点是：我没有做任何真题，其实连模拟题都几乎没做，完全是靠眼睛看，没有动手做。当时就决定下一次一定要好好复习，一定要通过，不然就没机会了。

大概是今年的考试前两个月左右，我一次偶然的机我接触到了外语教育网成人三级英语的网络培训班，当时还没下决心，毕竟几百块钱呢，而且现在成人三级培训骗钱的确是不少，

后来试听了几节课，感到学习找到了方向，不觉得迷茫了，这坚定了我的信心，于是在3 月份我报名了，课程很快就开通了，还有老师答疑。（其实现在感觉成人三级考试并没有太多的东西，翻来覆去就是那些考点，这也是我特别推崇真题的原因）之后，每天按计划听网络教程，认真做笔记，到四月初的时候就把所有课程都听了一遍。其实建议大家有时间一定要反复的听课，老师讲的比你自己看起来记忆深刻得多、有效果得多。可是我当时已经没有太多的时间了，所以没有听第二次了，只好看作的笔记，接下来就是做真题，背短语，单词，到快要考试的时候突然觉得语法、做题思路是清晰了很多。

上面所说的我要强调几点。首先，强烈建议大家报个补习班（以为我是在做广告的人就别往下看了，我何苦呢我？事实证明一切，当你经历过就知道了），特别是基础不好的朋友，如果你的基础一般又不想在考试上前车太多时间的话，也建议你报一个。如果你基础很牛那就不必了。理由如下：成人三级考试也像四、六级考试一样，是标准化考试，其出题的思路、考点规律、重点都是有规律可循的。补习班的老师除了自身的英语水平之外就是靠研究考试的规律吃饭的。所以说他们对于考题的敏感性比我们考生强得多。特别是基础不好的朋友，有一些小技巧例如阅读里面的“找选项”方法，可以帮你在几乎看不懂文章的情况下拿分。这些对于我们都是很实用的，虽然说有悖于考试的目的……

其次，吃定真题。就像我上面说的那样，这种考试的考点都会出现重复的现象，吃定真题就能使你复习少走不少弯路。其实很好理解，像足球友谊赛一样，你总是希望找一个跟你正式比赛对手风格比较一致的球队练习。真题不仅要做，做完之后还要循环着反复看，加强记忆。

最后，老师的讲课都没有问题，关键是你能不能坚持，如果买了课回去听了几次就不听了，那神仙也帮不了你。英语学习不是什么好玩的事，我想没有几个人天生就爱学英语，但是为了自己的前途我们必须得挺着学，没别的办法。也许我上面说的算不上经验，但至少是一种方法，大的方向不会错。最后说一句，没有你个人的努力，就算有再好的老师，再好的方法，也全都白费，所以自己认真准备是一定要的。

2.成人学位英语考试真题 篇二

一、当前我国成人学士学位授予工作的现状和问题

我国的成人学士学位授予工作一直在不断的发展与完善, 并取得了一定的成效。然而, 由于成人高等教育的不断发展, 我国的成人学士学位授予工作还存在一些问题。

(一) 对成人高等教育仍存在偏见

成人高等教育中, 学士学位教育与本科学历教育相混淆的情况十分普遍, 高校往往对学历教育比较重视, 而在一定程度上忽视了成人学士学位教育。还有一些高校对成人高等教育存在偏见, 认为其不属于正规高等教育, 甚至会挤占高等教育资源, 一些高校以开办成人高等教育作为创收的手段, 不重视成人高等教育的教学质量。由于这些偏见的影响, 使成人高等教育在毕业设计和毕业论文等方面的质量都远不如本科学历教育。高校没有足够的资金投入和师资力量来提高成人高等教育的教学水平, 也就影响了其教学的效果。

(二) 社会对于成人学士学位的认可度仍然不高

成人学士学位授予工作难免会受到社会认可度的影响, 当前社会对于成人学士学位的认可度仍然不高。成人高等教育的学员一般都为社会在职人员, 他们的学习动机也与普通高等教育的学生不同, 很多学员只想拿到毕业证书而不重视学士学位证书。这也在一定程度上对学士学位教育的教学效果造成了影响。

(三) 教学模式与普通高等教育雷同, 缺乏变通

当前我国成人高等教育的教学模式基本沿用了普通高等教育的教学模式, 没有将成人高等教育的独立性和自主性体现出来[1]。很多高校在学士学位的补授、英语等级考试等方面的规定缺乏统一性。部分高校规定如果学员在毕业一年后能够通过外语等级考试, 并能够通过考核则可以补授学士学位, 而有一些高校则不能补授学士学位。

成人高等教育的学员多为社会人士, 无论是年龄、社会身份还是家庭状况和职业状况都与普通高等教育的学生有着明显的差别, 如果成人高等教育沿用普通高等教育的教学模式, 会对成人高等教育的发展造成阻碍。

二、成人学士学位授予的实践措施

为了提高成人高等教育的教学质量, 推进成人学士学位授予工作的实践, 必须对成人学士学位授予工作的现状进行改进。

(一) 成人学士学位授予工作要以科学的管理体系为基础

在成人学士学位授予的工作实践中, 必须以科学的建立体系作为推进工作的基础。本校通过提高对成人学士学位授予工作的重视, 由重要校领导对成人学士学位授予进行直接分管。科学的成人学士学位授予管理体系分为院、校两级, 直接由主管校长进行统辖。教务处是校级管理体系的主要组织部门, 主要负责对成人学士学位课程考试的组织和监督, 成教学院则对成人本科教学的全过程进行具体的管理和监督。由二级学院对成人本科教学及学士学位授予工作进行组织和实施, 切实保障成人本科教学的质量。通过科学的管理体系, 院、校两级管理体系可以做到各司其职, 对对方的工作进行补充和监督, 实现微观与宏观的结合, 为成人学士学位授予工作提供指导。

(二) 建立一支高素质的成人学士学位授予工作管理团队

要加强成人学士学位授予工作, 就要建立一支工作能力强、素质高的管理团队。管理人员的工作能力、责任感都会对成人学士学位的授予工作造成影响。成人学士学位授予工作的管理人员要具备良好的政治觉悟, 较高的业务素质, 熟悉成人学士学位授予的工作流程, 并且具有较强的责任意识和事业心, 能够出色的完成成人学士学位授予工作[2]。要建立高素质的成人学士学位授予工作管理团队, 首先必须有相应的管理人员培训制度。高校要提高对相关管理人才培养的重视, 定期对管理人员进行培训, 使其能够对自己工作的重要性进行深刻的认识, 切实提高其业务能力。要求管理人员要树立服务意识, 摆正观念, 不断提高管理的力度, 使成人学士学位的授予工作做到科学化、规划化。

(三) 为成人学士学位的授予质量提高切实保障

成人学士学位授予工作的关键就在于要切实提高成人学士学位授予的质量, 要切实执行国家对于成人学士学位授予的相关规定, 对以下环节的执行予以重视。

1) 严格遵守成人学士学位的授予标准。高校必须严格遵守成人学士学位的授予标准, 毕业生要获得学士学位必须满足一定的条件。成人高等教育本科毕业生必须拥护社会主义制度和中国共产党的领导, 品行端正, 遵纪守法, 并且能够通过政治理论课程考试、外语等级考试和专业基础课程考试。毕业生的毕业设计或者毕业论文必须达到一定的要求, 对本学科的知识、理论和技能都进行较好的掌握。对于不符合要求的毕业生, 特别是没有通过学位课程考试、违反学校纪律的毕业生依照相关规定不得授予其成人学士学位。

2) 对学位授予的程序进行规范。在成人学士学位授予工作中, 规范的授予程序能够保障公平公正, 杜绝徇私舞弊的现象出现。对于申请逾期、不符合申请条件的毕业生不得受理并授权其成人学士学位。对于申请人上交的相关材料要进行逐个审核, 提出意见, 组织其参加毕业答辩。

3) 提高对学位论文答辩的重视, 做好组织工作。作为成人学士学位授予工作中的一项重要内容, 高校要严格按照相关规范组织学位论文答辩工作, 对时间、选题、成绩评定等做好要求, 制定操作性强的评分细则对论文答辩进行指导。

4) 对学位课程的管理予以重视。在制定教学计划时要对学位课程予以重视, 对学位考试课程的学时数予以保障, 重视主干课程。特别是对3门考试课程 (专业基础课、政治理论课和英语课) 予以重视。提高成人高等教育的师资力量, 优化办学设施。教务处、相关学科专家要制定详细的考试大纲和相应的考试细则, 对学位课程进行规范化管理。

三、结语

通过各种措施提高成人学士学位工作授予的规范性, 不断完善成人学士学位授予工作, 提高成人学士学位授予的质量。

Have you ever heard of a pawpaw(木瓜)? If not, do not feel bad.Many Americans do not know of the fruit, although it is native to the U.S..Once, however, it was one of the most popular fruits in North America.Happily, those who love the pawpaw are trying to return it to its former position in American foods.A pawpaw is a tropical fruit that used to be grown along the East Coast from New York to Florida and all over the eastern U.S..At one time, it could be found as far west as Nebraska.The pawpaw was an important food for Native Americans and even early European settlers.Pawpaws reportedly were a favorite treat of George Washington, the first U.S.president, who especially liked them cold.Thomas Jefferson, the third U.S.president, was also s fan of the fruit.He planted papaws at his home in Virginia.He also sent pawpaw seeds to his friends in France, American explorers Lewis and Clark wrote in their journals about the pawpaw.The pawpaw is difficult to be sold commercially.The fruit requires a very special environment---low, wet areas that sometimes flood.It has a very short harvest season, from two to three weeks in September and October.In addition, the fruit is good to eat for only two to three days after harvesting.This makes it hard to sell anywhere distant from the pawpaw tree it comes from.Planters are again growing pawpaw trees and harvesting the fruit.In several states farmers have organized “pawpaw festivals” to reintroduce people to food.At such a festival in Maryland recently, farmers displayed different products made with pawpaws, like pawpaw jams, pies, ice-cream and beer.16.Many American people do not know that the pawpaw _____ A.Was once popular in the U.S.B.Is native to the U.S.only C.Has become popular again D.Is a healthy fruit 【答案】B 【解析】根据文章“Many Americans do not know of the fruit, although it is native to the U.S..”可以得出答案。

Passage Two Throughout history, humans have suffered from a condition that they have never been able to escape—ageing.Some researchers, however, believe we may be thinking about it in the wrong way.They say we should start treating ageing itself as a disease—one that can be prevented and treated.Their hopes are founded on recent discoveries that suggest biological ageing may be entirely preventable and treatable.From a biological preventive, the body ages at different rates according to genetic and environmental factors.Tiny errors build up in our DNA and our cells begin developing faults that can grow into tissue damage, which leads to ageing and ageing—related diseases.One of the leading figures in human life research, Aubrey De Grey, explains in an interview that their goal is to develop a set of therapies for middle-aged and older people that will leave them physically and mentally equivalent(相当的)to someone under the age of 30.“Of course, without wiping their memories,” he adds.But he doesn’t think that is will be possible to stop ageing altogether.He sees a future where “rejuvenation technologies” can be applied to old people in order to revert their cells to what they were like when they were in their youth, buying them extra time.The idea is that someone who is treated at the age of 60 will be biologically reverted to 30.But because the therapies are not permanent fixes.Their cells will end up becoming 60 years old again in another 30 years time.21.By “treating ageing itself as a disease”, some researchers mean _____ A.Aged people are liable to diseases B.Ageing can be dealt with like a disease C.Ageing is a disease hard to cure D.Ageing should be treated carefully 【答案】B 【解析】根据文章“They say we should start treating ageing itself as a disease—one that can be prevented and treated.”可以得出答案。

22.Humans age at different rates due to _____ reasons.A.Physical B.Biological C.Genetic and environmental D.DNA and cell-related 【答案】C 【解析】根据文章“From a biological preventive, the body ages at different rates according to genetic and environmental factors.”可以得出答案。

23.The goal of De Grey’s research is to _____.A.Freeze people’s age B.Make people younger C.Stop ageing altogether D.Adjust people’s memories 【答案】B 【解析】根据文章“One of the leading figures in human life research, Aubrey De Grey, explains in an interview that their goal is to develop a set of therapies for middle-aged and older people that will leave them physically and mentally equivalent to someone under the age of 30.”可以得出答案。

24.What does “rejuvenation”(para.3)possibly mean? A.Relating to cells B.Relating to genes.C.Becoming healthy.D.Becoming young.【答案】D 【解析】rejuvenation一词的意思为“返老还童”.25.What will happen if someone is treated with De Grey’s technology? A.He will stay young for a longer time B.He will no longer grow old.C.He will live up to at least 60 years old.D.He will not get ageing-related diseases.【答案】A 【解析】根据文章“Their cells will end up becoming 60 years old again in another 30 years time.”可以得出答案。

Passage Three

When jack Davis, 9, looks up at the night sky, he doesn’t see just the stars.He sees his future.The fourth grader from New Jersey has a deep interest in outer space and the alien(外星的)beings he thinks might live there.In July, Jack heard that NASA was looking for a new planetary protection officer and decided he was the right person for the job.The position, which focuses on preventing astronauts from accidentally bringing extremely small, potentially dangerous alien life-forms back to Earth and ensuring that astronauts do not take Earth-based germs with them into space, pays from $124,406 to $187,000 per year.Jack wrote a letter to NASA, noting his qualifications for the job.“My sister says I am an alien,” Jack wrote, pointing out that since he is young, he can “learn to think like an alien.” He signed the letter “Jack Davis, Guardian of the Galaxy.”

Within days, Jack received a personal letter from NASA’s planetary science director, James L.Green.“We are always looking for bright future scientists and engineers to help us,” Green wrote.”I hope you will study hard and do well in school.We hope to see you here at NASA one of these days!”

Jack said he was “shocked” when Green’s response arrived.“I shouted, I got a letter from NASA!”

Green says he loves to answer letters from children.He calls his response a “gravity assist.” Spacecraft use gravity assistance from objects like planets and moons to help power the craft toward another celestial(天上的)body.Green hopes a reply can influence a person’s path in life in a similar way.26.Which of the following can best describe Jack Davis? A.Mature B.Curious.C.Talented.D.Honest 【答案】B 【解析】根据文章“The fourth grader from New Jersey has a deep interest in outer space and the alien(外星的)beings he thinks might live there.”可以得出答案。

27.What is the job responsibility of the planetary protection officer? A.To ensure the mental and physical health of the astronauts B.To protect Earth from possible alien attacks in the future C.To keep harmful substances form spreading between Earth and outer space.D.To study the unknown substances astronauts brought back to Earth 【答案】C 【解析】根据文章“The position, which focuses on preventing astronauts from accidentally bringing extremely small, potentially dangerous alien life-forms back to Earth and ensuring that astronauts do not take Earth-based germs with them into space, pays from $124,406 to $187,000 per year.”可以得出答案。

28.In this letter, Jack explains that his strength lies in his _____ A.Personality B.Appearance C.Hobby D.Age 【答案】A 【解析】根据文章“Jack wrote a letter to NASA, noting his qualifications for the job.“My sister says I am an alien,” Jack wrote, pointing out that since he is young, he can “learn to think like an alien.” He signed the letter “Jack Davis, Guardian of the Galaxy.””可以得出安安。

29.In his response to the boy, James Green _____.A.Encourages Jack to be a future NASA scientist B.Invites Jack to visit NASA as soon as possible C.Tells Jack NASA’s requirements for scientists D.Offers to provide training for Jack at NASA 【答案】A 【解析】根据文章“Within days, Jack received a personal letter from NASA’s planetary science director, James L.Green.“We are always looking for bright future scientists and engineers to help us,” Green wrote.”I hope you will study hard and do well in school.We hope to see you here at NASA one of these days!””可以得出答案。

30.In the last paragraph, the author intends to _____.A.Support Green for using gravity assist in projects.B.Introduce the concept of gravity assist C.Guide young people by giving them a gravity assist D.Explain how Green’s letter serves as a gravity assist 【答案】C 【解析】根据文章“Green hopes a reply can influence a person’s path in life in a similar way.”可以得出答案。

Passage Four

Online dating has just been revealed to be one of the most common ways to start a relationship.But new research reveals that the concept is still highly flawed(有缺陷的).An analysis of 400 studies into online dating shows that while it offers access to plenty of other singles, users can be overwhelmed and put off by the volume of choice, defeating the purpose.The research, by Northwestern University and published in the journal Psychological Science in the public interest, found that the processes involved don’t lend themselves to forming strong relationships.The findings also indicated that the concept of an online profile(介绍)is not entirely useful and “can result in treating potential partners as mere objects”.Lead author Eli J Finkel explained: “Online dating is a terrific addition for singles to meet.However, there are two problems.” First, studying over seemingly endless lists of profiles of people one does not know, as on Match.com, does not reveal much about them.Second, it “overloads people and they end up shutting down,” he said.He compared it to shopping at “supermarkets of love” and said psychological research shows people presented with too many choices tend to make lazy and often poor decisions.The study’s authors also questioned the algorithms(算法)employed by sites such as eHarmony.com to match people based on their interests or personality—comparing it to having a real estate agent of love.While the algorithm may reduce the number of potential partners from thousands to a few, they may be as unsuitable for each other as two people meeting at random, Dr Finkel explained, adding the chances are no better than finding a relationship by walking into any bar.“There’s no better way to figure out whether you’re a match with somebody than talking to them over a coffee or beer,” Dr Finkel said.31.What is the author’s attitude towards online dating? A.Negative B.Positive C.Indifferent D.Neutral 【答案】A 【解析】根据文章“But new research reveals that the concept is still highly flawed”可以得出答案。

32.According to Paragraph 2, online dating _____ A.Attracts a limited number of singles B.Has been widely studied recently C.Is criticized as lacking a purpose D.Offers too many choice 【答案】D 【解析】根据文章“An analysis of 400 studies into online dating shows that while it offers access to plenty of other singles, users can be overwhelmed and put off by the volume of choice, defeating the purpose.”可以得出答案。

33.The phrase “lend themselves to”(Para.3)probably means _____ A.Be opposed to B.Be easily used for C.Be happy with D.Be consistent with 【答案】B 【解析】根据文章“Psychological Science in the public interest, found that the processes involved don’t lend themselves to forming strong relationships.”可以得出答案。

34.Why is Dr.Finkel mentioned in the passage? A.He is the lead researcher of the study on online dating B.He is a well-know professor at Northwestern University C.He is an expert in analyzing people’s shopping patterns D.He is the president of a famous online matching website 【答案】A 【解析】根据文章“Lead author Eli J Finkel explained: “Online dating is a terrific addition for singles to meet.However, there are two problems.””可以得出答案。

35.According to Dr Finkel, what is the best way to find a match? A.An evaluation on the basis of interests and personality.B.An analysis based on proper computer algorithms C.A comparison with other potential partners D.A face-to-face talk with the potential partner 【答案】D 【解析】根据文章““There’s no better way to figure out whether you’re a match with somebody than talking to them over a coffee or beer,” Dr Finkel said.”可以得出答案。

4.成人学位英语考试真题 篇四

3.The umbrella was used only by royal people or those in high office_________.A in European in the eighteenth century B in ancient Egypt and Babylon C in the Far East in ancient times D during the Middle Ages 答案:C 本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。“In the Far East In ancient times，the umbrella was allowed to be

used only by royal people or by those in high office．”根据第三段最后一句可得知。4.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A Women enjoy using umbrella with varies kinds of colors B The inventor of the umbrella is unknown C Once ordinary people had no right to use umbrellas D Umbrellas were popular and cheap in the ancient times 答案:D 本题考查的是考生对全文的把握以及关键点的理解。“And there was a strange thing connected with its use；it became a symbol of honor and authority．In the Far East In ancient times，the umbrella was allowed to be used only by royal people or by those in high office．”可知，雨伞在古代曾经是权利和荣耀的象征，所以只能由皇族和高官持有，故此项不对。

5.Which of the following may be the best title for the passage? A When Was the Umbrella Invented B The Role of Umbrella in History C The Colors and Shapes of Umbrella D Who Needed Umbrella First 答案:B 本题考查的是考生对全文意思的把握。通读全文可知，文章讲雨伞的不同角色，包括遮阳，遮雨，在古代还能象征权利和荣誉，所以B能最好地概括全文，其他项都太过片面。

How can we get rid of garbage(垃圾)? Do we have enough energy sources to meet our future energy needs? These are two important questions that many people are asking today.Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time.They suggest using garbage as an energy source, and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage.For a long time, people buried garbage or dumped(倾倒)it on empty land.Now, empty land is scarce.But more and more garbage is produced each year.However, garbage can be a good fuel to use.The things in garbage do not look like coal, petroleum, or natural gas;but they are chemically similar to these fossil(化石)fuels.As we use up our fossil-fuel supplies, we might be able to use garbage as an energy source.Burning garbage is not a new idea.Some cities in Europe and the United States have been burning garbage for years.The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water.The steam that is produced is used to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings.In Paris, France, some power plants burn almost 2 million metric tons of the cities garbage each year.The amount of energy produced is about the same as would be produced by burning almost a half million barrels of oil.Our fossil fuel supplies are limited.Burning garbage might be one kind of energy source that we can use to help meet our energy needs.This method could also reduce the amount of garbage piling up on the earth.6.What two problems can man solve by burning garbage? A The shortage of energy and air pollution.B The shortage of energy and the land to hold garbage.C Air pollution and the shortage of fossil fuel.D Air pollution and the shortage of land to hold garbage.答案:B 细节题。见第二段“Some people think that man might be able to solve both problems at the same time．They suggest using garbage as an energy source，and at the time it can save the land to hold garbage．”有人认为我们可以同时把两个问题解决：一是解决了能源紧缺的问题；二是节省了填埋垃圾的土地。

7.Which of the following is NOT the result of burning garbage? A The garbage burned is turned into fossil fuels.B The heat produced is used to boil water.C The steam produced is used to make electricity.D The steam produced is used to heat buildings.答案:A 细节题。根据“The heat that is produced by burning garbage is used to boil water．The steam that is produced is used、to make electricity or to heat nearby buildings．”可知只有A不正确。8.According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true? A About 2 million metric tons of garbage is burned in France each year.B In a modern society, more and more garbage is produced each year.C Using garbage is a good way to solve the problem of energy shortage.D It will be too expensive to use garbage as an energy source.答案:D 细节题。文章中根本就没有提到燃烧垃圾以获取能源的方法花费很高。9.What is the author’s attitude? A Delighted.B Sad.C Agreeing.D Disagreeing.答案:A 作者态度题。文章最后一段就表明了作者的态度。他认为通过燃烧垃圾发电可以作为解决能源短缺的一种途径，同时还可减少垃圾的堆积。

10.The best title for the passage may be________.A Garbage and the Earth B Fossil Fuel and Garbage C Land and Garbage D Garbage—Energy Source 答案:D 主旨题。全文主要谈论用垃圾发电来解决能源短缺的问题。

Today, cigarette smoking is a common habit.About forty-three percent of the adult men and thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettes regularly.It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given up smoking.It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women.Among both men and women the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44.Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’’s smoking habit.City people smoke more than people living on farms.Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes.On the other hand，if a well-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smoke more packs of cigarettes per day.The situation is somewhat different for women.There are slightly more smokers among women with higher family income and higher education than among the lower income and lower educational groups.These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily.Among teenagers the picture is similar.There are fewer teenaged smokers from upper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farm areas.Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of their parents smoke.11.What do we know from the first paragraph ? A More and more people take up the habit of smoking.B There are more smoking women than smoking men in U.S.A.C It is good news that more people have given up smoking.D The U.S.has more smoking people than any other country.答案:C 很多人戒烟是个好消息。在文章的第一段，作者便提到，看到有数百万的人戒烟是令人振奋的。所以选C． 12.What factors determine a person’s smoking habits ? A Age, income and education.B Age, sex and income.C Occupation, income and sex.D Occupation, income and education.答案:D 文章第三段的开头，Income，education，and occupation all play a part in determining a person’s smoking habit．收入、教育和职业都在人们的吸烟习惯中起到决定性的作用。13.Which of the following is true according to the passage ? A City people are less likely to smoke.B People in rural areas are more likely to smoke.C Men with higher income tend to smoke.D Well-educated men with high incomes are generally less likely to smoke.答案:D 高知识、高收入的男人不太容易吸烟。文章第三段提到，Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes than men with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes．文化程度和教育程度越高，吸烟的人越少。所以选D。

14.What is the smoking situation for women ? A The situation is quite the same for women as for men.B Better-educated women are likely to smoke heavily.C There are more women smokers with low incomes.D Women with higher incomes and higher education do not tend to smoke.答案:B 文章第四段提到，女性的情况跟男性相反。These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily．教育程度越高，吸烟数量越多。

15.What can we say about teenaged smokers ? A The picture about the teenage smokers is similar to that of women smokers.B The situation among teenagers is quite the same with men.C High school students are more likely to smoke than college students.D Farmers’ children tend to smoke more.答案:B 青少年的情况与成年男人相似。最后一段提到These more highly educated women tend to smoke more heavily．那些来自高收入、高知识家庭和乡村家庭的孩子吸烟的人数较少。Part II Vocabulary and Structure(30%)Directions: In this part, there are 30 incomplete sentences.For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.Choose the ONE answer that best completes the sentence.Then mark the corresponding lett 16.Since this road is wet and slippery this morning, it_________ last night.A must rain B was raining C must have rained D may rain 答案:C 本题考查情态动词+完成时的用法，表示对已经发生的事情的肯定猜测。本句的意思是：“既然今天早晨路上又湿又滑．昨晚肯定下雨了。”

5.成人学位英语考试真题 篇五

Packaging is a very important form of advertising.A package can sometimes motivate people to buy products.For example, a little child might ask for a breakfast food contained in a box with a picture of a TV character.The child is more interested in the picture than in the breakfast food.Pictures for children to color or cut out, games printed on a package, or a small gift inside a box also motivates many children to buy products--or to ask their parents to buy for them.Some packages suggest that a buyer will get something for nothing.Food products sold in reusable containers are examples of this.Although a similar product in plain container might cost less, people often prefer to buy the product in a reusable glass or dish , because they believe the container is free.However, the cost of the container is added to the cost of the product.The size of a package also motivates a buyer.Maybe the package has “Economy Size” or “Family Size” printed on it.This suggests that the larger size has the most products for the least money.But that is not always true.To find it out, a buyer has to know how the product is soldand the price of the basic unit.The information on the package should provide some answers.But the important thing for any buyer to remember is that a package is often

an advertisement.The words and pictures do not tell the whole story.Only the product inside can do that.1.“A buyer will get something for nothing ”(Para.2)may probably mean A.a buyer will not get what he pays for

B.a buyer will get more than what he pays for

2.From the passage we know the buyer pays more attention to A.the size of a container

B.a container with no picture

C.a reusable container

D.a plain container with low cost

3.What suggestion does the writer give in the passage?

A.It’s not good to buy the product which is sold in a glass or dish.B.The quality of a container has something to do with the quality of the product.C.The best choice for a buyer is to buy a product with no package.D.A buyer should buy what he needs most rather than a reusable package.4.Which of the following sentence is NOT true according to the passage?

A.In fact glasses or dishes used for packaging do not cost money at all.B.“Family size” printed on the package means that it is rather economic.C.To a child, even to an adult, the form is far more important than the content.D.Words and pictures written on the package are thought to be an advertisement.5.What do you think is the best title for the package?
