Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2points for each item)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Soccer it is played by millions of people all over the world, but there have only been a few players who were truly great. How did these players get that way- was it through training and practice, or are great players “born, not made”?First, these players come from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate. In the history of soccer, only six countries have ever won the World Cup-three from south America and three from Western Europe. There has never been a great national team-or a really great player-from North America or from Asia. Second, these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player, as was Pele. Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four. Finally, many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood-a poor, crowded area where a boys dream is not to be a doctor, lawyer, or businessman, but to become a rich, famous athlete or entertainer. For example, Liverpool, which produced the Beatles, had one of the best English soccer teams in recent years. Pele practiced in the street with a “ball” made of rags. And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums of Belfast.All great players have a lot in common, but that doesnt explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets, but only one became Pele. The greatest players are born with unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.21. According to the author, which of the following statement is true? Soccer is popular all over the world, but truly great players are rare. Millions of people all over the world are playing soccer, but only six countries have ever had famous stars. Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world, but only six countries from South America and Western Europe have ever had great national teams. All over the world soccer is one of the most popular games, but it seems least popular in North America or Asia.22. The word “tricks” at the end of Para.2 is closest in meaning to _.A、experience B、cheating C、skills D、training23. Liverpool and Brazilian streets are two geographic terms used to illustrate_.A、where soccer players get heir wayB、how neighborhood affects a soccer players successC、why they can produce the best soccer teamsD、what a poor, crowded area will provided a future soccer player with24. in the last paragraph the statement “but only one became Pele” indicate that_.A、Pele is the greatest soccer playerB、the greatest players are born with some unique qualityC、Peles birthplace sets him apart from all the othersD、the success of a soccer player has everything to do with the family background25. to get the way for a great player, a series of factors are directly mentioned, except _.A、age and birthB、family and neighborhoodC、training and practiceD、personality and characterPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.It is, everyone agrees, a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak, and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.Language and learning begins with listening. Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It is agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that the during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight, distress, sociability, and so on. But since these can not be said to show the babys intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed, too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to their repertoire(能发出的全部声音).this self-imitation leads to deliberate （有意识的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.26. By“challenges explanation”(line 2, Para 1) the author means that_ no explanation necessary for such an obvious phenomenon no explanation has been made up to now its no easy job to provide an adequate explanation its high time that an explanation was provided27. The third paragraph is mainly about_ the development of babies early forms of language the difficulties of babies in learning to speak babies strong desire to communicate babies intention to communicate28. The authors purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children_ usually obey without asking questions are passive in the process of learning to speak are born cooperative learn to speak by listening29. From the passage we learn that_ early starters can learn to speak within only six months children show a strong desire to communicate by making noises imitation plays an important role in learning to speak children have various difficulties in learning to speak30. The best title for this passage would be_ how babies learned to speak early forms of speech a huge task for children noise making and language learningPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Since the earliest times, trees have always been very useful and important to man who made use of them in many ways. Even today trees continue to serve man in so many ways. Trees provide man with fruits and building materials in the form of wood. Without trees it would be impossible to build houses, boats and even bridges. Furniture such as tables, chairs and beds is made of wood.In the tropics(热带地区)where it is very hot throughout the year, trees protect man from the terrible heat. They are also useful in preventing good and rich top soil from being washed away during heavy rains which are so common in the tropics.If there were no trees of vegetation(植被)of some kind to hold back the soil with their roots, heavy rain would wash away the rich surface soil that is so important and necessary to agriculture. The result is that the land becomes a desert.There are so many desert areas in the world. A long time ago these desert areas must have been very fertile（肥沃的）areas, but since our ancestors(祖先)in the distant past did not have enough knowledge about science of nature, they cut down all the trees in the areas where they lived and never planted new ones. By and by, the rich surface soil was blown and washed away by strong winds and heavy rains. In the end the lands were turned into useless deserts where nothing could grow.31. “Rich top soil” in Line 2, Paragraph 2 means _ and is _. Useless soilof no use for agriculture Soil on the surface of the earthgood for agriculture Soil found under the earthfound under the roots of trees Dry soil in desert areasbad for agriculture32. According to the passage, some desert areas were once _. Fertile lands Very wet Very cold Very dry and useless lands33. If there were no trees, _. The land would become more fertile Heavy rains would clean the tropics The rich top soil couldnt be held back The balance of nature is unimportant to man34. From this passage, we know that _.A、man can do nothing to keep the balance of natureB、man may take no notice of the balance of natureC、man must do his best to keep the balance of natureD、man must have knowledge of science of nature35. the best title of this passage is _. The Uses and Importance of Trees The Importance of Top Soil How Are Rich Lands Turned into Deserts Keep the Balance of Nature第二部分 非选择题 （共50分）IV.

Then when the employee needs medical help, he cant use money from the fund to pay for it.Other people have health insurance. They pay insurance premiums each month to insurance companies which then pay for medical expenses when they are needed. In some medical plans, the insurance company is also the medical institution. People regularly pay the hospital directly. Then when they need medical treatment, they go to the hospital without paying more money.The government has health insurance programs for older people, poor people and those with a long term illness. these programs make medical care available to those without their own health insurance.2007年4月自考“英语（二）”模拟试卷32007-2-15 9:20:48北京自考热线杨金钟 提供2012年4月自考英语（一）、英语（二）、高等数学网络重点班（一次报名、确保通过！）购正版自考教材，赠送价值300元的“全套精讲光盘+专业考试计划”IVocabulary and Structure (10 points, 1point each)2007年4月自考“英语（二）”模拟试卷12007-2-15 9:18:48北京自考热线杨金钟 提供2012年4月自考英语（一）、英语（二）、高等数学网络重点班（一次报名、确保通过！）购正版自考教材，赠送价值300元的“全套精讲光盘+专业考试计划”本试卷分为两部分，满分100分，考试时间150分钟。第一部分为选择题，第二部分为非选择题。PART ONE（50 POINTS）I.

Vocabulary and Structure ( 10 points, 1 point for each item)模拟题（一）答案及详解. Vocabulary and Structure1.答案：B本题考查eitheror的固定搭配。2.答案：Dthat引导同位语从句。3.答案：D本句的意思是：“即使研究有了新的发展，只有一小部分的试验可以不用动物”。因此答案为D。variety和plenty分别表示“多样”和“大量的”，意思不合适。amount后只能接不可数名词，而test是可数名词。4.答案：C本句的意思是“虽然荷兰是欧洲唯一允许安乐死的国家，但是安乐死在荷兰严格说来并不合法”，所以应该填although。5.答案：A在这四个选项中，只有convince可以接动词不定式，组成convince sb. not to do sth.的词组，意为“说服某人做某事”。6.答案：Cput up with“忍受”，come up with“想出，得出”。7.答案：C英语中表示“是的两倍”用twice as much (many) as，表示“是的两倍多”则可用more than twice。所以答案为C。8.答案：A本题要求填入一个关系代词引导主语从句，并在主语从句中作主语，所以选what。9.答案：Bin experiential terms意为“从经验上来说”。10.答案：B本题需要填入一个表示“花时间”而又能与动词不定式连用的动词。spend常用于spenddoing sth.的句型中。cost一般用于it cost sb. to do sth.的句型中，主语不能是人。pay表示“花钱”的意思。只有take可用于sb. taketo do sth.的句型中。II. Cloze Test11.答案：A本题考查介词的使用。众所周知，爱因斯坦是一个伟大的科学家，因此此处应填as，表示“作为”之意。12.答案：D本题要求填入一个连接词，连接两个介词词组，表示“而不是”的意思，因此答案为rather than。其他三个词组的意思分别是: other than“不用于，除了”，more than“极其，非常；超出的”，better than“比好”。13.答案：C本句中Einstein a hill为story的同位语从句，所以应填that。14.答案：A根据句意，爱因斯坦最有可能“坐在小山上，做着白日梦”，因此最佳选择为while，和sitting on a hill构成连词加分词的形式，在句中做时间状语。15.答案：D本题考查本句和前一句的逻辑关系。在前一句中，文章提到“爱因斯坦乘着光束飞到了宇宙的远处”，本句则写到“他发现自己回到了太阳系”，因此应选then，表达两句时间的先后顺序。16.答案：B“宇宙是圆弧形的”是一种idea“想法”，而不是story“故事”，figure“数字，人物，外形”或pattern“模式”。17.答案：B本题考查动宾搭配。analysis, number, reason只能和动词apply搭配，意为“运用分析、计算、和推理”。其他三个动词分别意为：supply“供应”，reply“回复”，和imply“暗示”。18.答案：C从本句的谓语动词encourages来判断，句子的主语应该是education，这就排除了B。A选项不合语法；句首的traditional提示我们，教育是早已确定了的，应此应选established。19.答案：D本题和题一样考查前后两句的逻辑关系。从前一句我们得知，传统上学校更重视语言、计算、分析和逻辑，也就是重视左脑的开发。在本句中，作者指出“拥有两条完好的腿”才能跳跃，即应该同时使用大脑的左右半球。两句之间存在明显的转折关系，所以选However。20.答案：A本句为一个反问句，事实上是在建议因该“更加重视视觉思维”。四个选项中，只有value可以和giveto搭配，表达“重视”之意。其他名词的意思分别是：vision“想象力，视觉”，voice“声音”，和view“看法，视野，景色”。III. Reading ComprehensionPassage One21.答案：B本题是针对文章的第一句话提问的，实际上是考查全文的中心思想。从文中得知，作者预测因特网将给世界带来巨大的改变，因此答案是B。其他选项都过于具体，不能概括全文的中心思想。22.答案：D本题要求选择美国公司放弃官僚作风的原因是什么。A“是被新技术的使用所推动”颠倒了因果关系，因为新技术的使用是改变官僚作风的结果而不是原因。文中没有提到商人致富是靠改变作风，所以B也不对。C“这些公司想把它们首席执行官的工资和股票市场的表现挂钩”是一项改革措施，不是原因。D“与外国公司的竞争很激烈”是正确答案。23.答案：A本题考查根据文章内容进行推测的能力。根据第二段第一句话“美国商业界目前决策的高速度是一因特网技术为基础的”，可推测出“因特网的使用提高了美国公司的竞争力”，因此答案是A。24.答案：C本题要求考生回答作者举例的目的是什么。在第三段的第一句话，作者指出“在市场的刀刃上，有些人将流血。”接着写很多人包括自己在内通过因特网购买汽车，导致汽车专卖行的倒闭，因此C“举例说明因特网的一个负面影响”是答案。25.答案：B本段说的是购物方式的改变，因此change最为接近transition的含义。Passage Two26.答案：D文章的第一段明确指出，人们对于学校应该发展智力没有异议，分歧主要在于智力发展应该在多大程度上优先于其他责任。因此人们争论的焦点是D“学校是否应该过于重视智力发展”。27.答案：C从题干的一词可知，本题答案在第三段的第二句话。全句的大意是：“有人质疑，学生们
