成人高考成考英语(专升本)试题与参考答案

成人高考成考英语(专升本)复习试题与参考答案一、语音知识（本大题有5小题，每小题2分，共10分）1.选出下列各组单词中发音不同的一项：A.catB.dogC.hatD.mat答案：D解析：A、B、C三项的划线部分发/a/，而D项的划线部分发/æ/，因此D项与其他三项发音不同。2.选出下列各句中划线部分发音不同的一项：A.Heworkshard.B.Shelikesmusic.C.Wearehappy.D.Theyplayfootball.答案：D解析：在A、B、C三项中，划线部分的发音都是辅音字母+元音的组合，而D项中划线部分“play”的发音为/pleɪ/，其中/p/是辅音字母/p/的发音，与A、B、C三项的发音规则不同。3.数字：______A.1.5B.2.5C.3.5D.4.5Answer:A解析：本题考察的是英语中的小数表达。在英语中，小数点后的第一位表示十分之一，第二位表示百分之一，第三位表示千分之一，以此类推。因此，选项A中的1.5表示1个整数和半个单位，即1+0.5=1.5。所以答案是A。4.数字：______A.0.7B.0.8C.0.9D.1.0Answer:B解析：本题同样考察的是英语中的小数表达。在英语中，小数点后的第一位表示十分之一，第二位表示百分之一，第三位表示千分之一，以此类推。因此，选项B中的0.8表示8个十分之一，即8/10=0.8。所以答案是B。5、Whatdoestheunderlinedpartinthefollowingsentencepronounceas?A.NurseB.MarshmallowC.PerspectiveD.Choose答案：C（Perspective/ˈpɜːsɪktɪv/）解析：首先，我们识别广播的每个选项中的元音字母“u”的变化情况。A项中的“Nurse”中的“u”是一个短元音发音，而B项中的“Marshmallow”中的“u”是一个长元音的发音。C项中的“Perspective”中的“u”.Restceptive_ENV序词，其发音为[‘pɜːsɪkt’]，因此它是由一个重读的单元音和一个轻音-constituent斯顿组成。最后，D项“Choose”中的“u”是一个短元音发音。按照这个逻辑，正确答案是C，即Perspective。注意题干中的提示“pronounceas”，意味着我们要找出单词的发音特征。二、词汇与语法知识（本大题有15小题，每小题2分，共30分）1.题目：Thestudentswere_____theirhomeworkwhentheteachercameintotheclassroom.A.doingB.doneC.todoD.does答案：A.doing解析：根据句子中的”were”，可以确定句子为过去进行时，形式为”was/were+动词的现在分词”。表示过去某一时刻正在进行的动作。而选项A中的”doing”是动词的现在分词形式，符合过去进行时的要求，表示老师进来时学生们正在做作业。因此，答案为A。2.题目：He_____fortheexamagainnextyearifhestudieshardthisyear.A.willsitB.sitsC.willbesittingD.sat答案：A.willsit解析：句子中出现了条件句，表达的是“如果他今年努力学习，明年将再次参加考试”。条件句中的时间状语是“明年”，所以需要使用将来时态。选项A中的“willsit”是将来时态的表达方式，符合句子的语境和语法要求。因此，答案为A。请注意，这只是模拟的试题，真实的成人高考成绩测试试卷可能会有不同的题型和难度。3、Accordingtoarecentsurvey,about60%ofpeopleintheUnitedStatesuse1topayforgroceries.A.creditcardB.cashC.checkD.PayPalAnswer:A解析：本题考查的是对美国消费支付方式的了解。在美国，信用卡(creditcard)是最常见的支付方式，因此选项A是正确答案。其他选项B(现金)、C(支票)和D(PayPal)虽然在美国也有一定的使用率，但相对较低。4、TheaveragetemperatureinJanuaryisabout-5°C,whiletheaveragetemperatureinJulyisabout25°C.It’sgenerally_____2__inJanuaryandJuly.A.colderB.warmerC.hotD.coldestAnswer:B解析：本题考查的是对温度变化的理解。从题目中可以看出，一月份的平均温度约为-5°C,七月份的平均温度约为25°C。根据这些信息，我们可以判断出七月份比一月份温暖，所以选项B(温暖)是正确答案。其他选项A(更冷)、C(热)和D(最冷)都不符合题目描述。5.Manypeoplebelievethat______enjoysthecomfortandconvenienceofmodernlifewhileneglectingthedutiesandresponsibilitiesitbrings.whowhichwhomthoseAnswer:DExplanation:“Those”referstoagroupofpeople,whichfitsthecontextofthesentence.6.Theprofessoraskedhisstudents______fortheirresearchpaperproposalsbyFriday.A.tosubmitB.submittingC.submitD.submittedAnswer:AExplanation:“Asked”isfollowedbyaninfinitivephrasebeginningwith“to.”Thisstructureisusedtoexpresscommands,requests,orsuggestions.“Tosubmit”isthecorrectinfinitiveforminthiscontext.7、_____,thedoctorsfeelthattheydidallthatcouldbedone.A.HavingcarriedoutsuccessfuloperationsonthemB.WiththesuccessfuloperationscarriedoutonthemC.CarryingoutsuccessfuloperationsonthemD.Carriedoutsuccessfuloperationsonthem答案:D解析:在这个句子中，我们需要一个状语，来描述医生的感受。选项D中“Carriedoutsuccessfuloperationsonthem”是一个过去分词短语，可以作为一个独立的分句，用于表示原因或条件，因此适合作为这里的时间状语。换句话说，过去已经完成的手术是造成医生感觉已经尽力的原因。而其他选项中使用的动词时态（现在分词和现在时）不适用于表达过去的时间点。另外，形式B使用了一个伴随状语结构，也并不适合。8、_____tendstohideitself,butitisoftenabovethewater-line.A.ThoughthesubmarineismuchsmallerthanthedestroyersB.However,thesubmarinedoessotoavoiddiscoveryC.Mostofthesubmarineisalwaysbelowthewater-levelD.Althoughitshullissometimesbreakingthewater’ssurface答案:D解析:此题选择最能体现隐匿性的选项。选项A与答案无关；选项B语义上不通顺；选项C不是隐藏的选项；选项D提到“hullissometimesbreakingthewater’ssurface”恰当地说明了一部分潜艇常常因为浮出水面而暴露出来，这正好解释了“ittendstohideitself”的现象，与选项C相比显然更合适。因此，D为本题最佳答案。9、Theywerecompletely_____withfatigueafterworkingfordaysonend.A.exhaustedB.touchedC.removedD.confused答案：A.exhausted

exhausted筋疲力尽的，touched感动的，removed移动，去掉的，confused困惑的，根据这句话说的是“他们连续工作数日之后完全筋疲力尽了”，故选A。10、Thenewpolicy_____thegovernment’seffortstoimprovetheenvironment.A.justifiesB.confirmsC.verifiesD.acknowledges答案：D.acknowledges这句话说的是：新政策承认了政府改善环境的努力，A.justifies证明是正当的，合理的，B.confirms证实（情况），证明事实的真假等含义时是不符合此句的语境的，不符合新政策对政府改善环境所作的努力的评价的褒义性；C.verifies核实；D.acknowledges承认（某种情况或事实），故选D。11.Accordingtoarecentstudy,about______%ofpeopleworldwidehaveexperiencedanxietydisorders.A.25B.30C.35D.40Answer:A(25%)Explanation:Thecorrectansweris25%,asstatedinthepassage.12.Themaindifferencebetween“affect”and“effect”isthataffectisusuallyanounandeffectcanbeeitheranounoraverb.A.Affectisalwaysanounandeffectcanbebothanounandaverb.B.Affectisalwaysaverbandeffectcanonlybeanoun.C.Affectisalwaysanounandeffectcannotbebothanounandaverb.D.Affectisalwaysaverbandeffectcanonlybeanoun.Answer:B(affectisalwaysaverbandeffectcanonlybeanoun)Explanation:ThecorrectanswerisB,asexplainedinthepassage.Affectisgenerallyusedasaverbtodescribehowsomeonefeelsaboutsomething,whileeffectreferstotheresultorconsequenceofanactionorevent.13、Pleasechoosethecorrectformoftheverbtocompletethesentence.Whenshefinallyarrivedattheparty,everyonewas______thedancefloor.movingtomovemovedmovedonCorrectAnswer:CExplanation:Thecorrectformoftheverbtouseinthissentenceis“moved”becauseitisthepastparticipleformof“move”andisusedtoindicateanactionthatwascompletedatsomepointinthepast.Thesentenceisdescribingasituationthathappenedwhenshearrived,whichisinthepast.Theotheroptionseitherdonotfitthecontextappropriatelyorareincorrectverbforms.14、Whichwordisthecorrectantonymof“consolidate”?DecomposeDisperseStrengthenDisconnectCorrectAnswer:AExplanation:Theword“consolidate”meanstocombineorunitethingssothattheywork,act,orexisttogetherasasingleunit.Therefore,itscorrectantonymwouldbe“decompose,”whichmeanstobreaksomethingdownintosmallerparts.Theotheroptions(disperse,strengthen,disconnect)donotfitthemeaningofconsolidateappropriately.15.Thekitchenwasonlylargeenoughtocontainatableandkitchen.A.twochairsB.twootherchairsC.twomorechairsD.anyotherchairsAnswer:C.twomorechairs解析：此题要求选择能在逻辑上补充句子的选项。句子描述的是厨房的大小：只能容纳一张桌子和另一把椅子，暗示着已经是至少有一部分家具的情况了。A选项“twochairs”和B选项“twootherchairs”不能正确补充句子，因为“twochairs”是数量，没有指明是不是多出一把，“twootherchairs”所用介词”other”表明这是除了已有椅子之外的新家具，但并没有强调“更多”的概念。C选项“twomorechairs”，其中”more”是一个比较级，意味着除了目前存在的至少一根之外的两根，正好符合语境，指的是在之前数量基础上的“更多”，符合句子描述的限制性条件。D选项“anyotherchairs”含糊其辞，没用具体数量表达，“any”一般代表任何或任一，极有可能与句子无法构成确切的意义单位。因此，正确答案是C“twomorechairs”。三、完形填空（30分）题目：请结合文章内容填写以下句子中的空白处。1.Englishlanguagelearninginvolvesnotjustmasteringgrammarrulesorvocabularywordsbutalsodevelopinganunderstandingofthe_______andsocietyrelatedtoit.2.ManystudentsenrollinhighereducationcoursestofurthertheirknowledgeofEnglish,especiallythosewho_______theirsecondaryeducationandaimtoenhancetheirprofessionalskillsbypursuinghighereducationdegreethroughcollegeentranceexaminationforadults.3.Throughvariouslearningmethodsandmaterials,studentsembarkonajourneyofexploringdifferentaspectsofEnglish_______andsociety.4.Theylearnabouthistoricaleventsthathave_______theEnglishlanguageandliteraryworksthatreflectthesociety.5.Astheydelvedeeperintothisfield,studentsalsoencountervariouschallengesthatrequirethemtodemonstratetheirlanguageproficiencyand_______awareness.答案：1.plete/complete-完成了他们的中学教育（成人教育高考）并希望通过考试攻读更高的学位来提升自己的专业技能。这里需要一个动词来连接前后两个部分，因此用complete这个词更为恰当。在此用“theirsecondaryeducation”替代后面的详细表述增加了答案的简洁性。这是一个更为专业的语言表达方式的选择，增加了整体的精确度和表达的准确度。它也成功地解释了整句话的主旨。填在此处的正确词汇必须与已经完成教育背景和目标相呼应，也即与”completesecondaryeducation”相契合，并且在之后能够通过成人高考继续提升专业能力的描述形成关联和补充关系。使用动词”complete”，突出了学习者已经完成了一定的教育阶段并且正在努力达到更高层次的学业成就的状态。此词与”enrollinhighereducationcourses”（参加高等学历教育课程）共同强调了对于个体来说是下一个学习的步骤和提升机会的新领域理解构建的具体动态，可以预见考生将持续构建更多针对教育机会的适应行为技能的培养和应用拓展理解表述的提升过程的反馈或应对措施表述的有效性关联的实现（无法理解的读者不必在意这部分纯逻辑构思本身毫无意义，忽略即可）。现在形式的构词提示出了更丰富意义的考虑行为的多样化特性和多方面的需求和存在等含混的现象在不同理论之中的条件知识规则与应用的标准沟通（这里省略号后面的部分主要是填充冗余词汇的干扰部分）。从答案整体上来看，“complete”是一个恰当的词汇选择，因为它准确地反映了学习者在完成中学教育后继续深造的过程和目的。因此，答案为“complete”。同时，这个答案也符合语境和语法规则的需求。“在完成学习路径和探索该领域的目标（提供事实材料进一步阐释解答加深学生印象方便教育机会的接续认可需要的认可和探讨适应多元化分析后（后部分无用内容忽视即可）特定发展成果的相对优化认识实践即当呈现应对行动的当前要求和达到的能力满足理解和行动的匹配性），这反映了学生需要掌握语言技能和文化知识才能应对未来挑战的现实情况。”这个解释有助于理解为什么选择“complete”这个词。在此情境下，“complete”是一个理想的词汇选择，因为它准确传达了学习者的学术成就和学习路径的连续性以及追求更高教育层次的意愿和决心。这个解释进一步强化了该答案的正确性并突出了其在实际语境中的适用性。通过“enrollinhighereducationcourses”和“theirsecondaryeducation”这两个关键词的关联分析，我们可以清晰地看到“complete”这个词是如何准确地反映了这个过程的关键特征——从中学阶段到高等教育的过渡和发展过程——进一步提升了他们的知识和技能水平以应对未来的挑战。在这个过程中，“文化意识”作为一个重要组成部分也需要加强和发展。“在此我们可以看出填入的关键词应为culturalculture表达的是与语言相关的文化和社会背景的理解和发展是语言学习的重要部分因此填cultural是正确的选择符合语境和语法规则的要求。因此综合前述的分析解答是正确的既体现了考生对未来教育的准备充分性和意图以及进一步展示他们对语言和文化的深层次理解和接受也与语言学习和深化专业技能目标的要求相契合填写的正确词应该是一个概括文化学习总体范畴的词既不完全局限于文学知识也包含对其他社会现象的深层次探究对于语言知识需求的灵活应对和研究增强沟通交流和专业技能的实现也即达到相关专业背景下处理信息的批判性理解和个人修养整体化意识目标的实现四、阅读理解（本部分有5大题，每大题9分，共45分）第一题Thearticlebelowdiscussestheimportanceoftimemanagementforstudents.Pleasereadthepassagecarefullyandanswerthefollowingquestions.Timemanagementiscrucialforstudentstoachievetheiracademicgoals.Withtheincreasingpressureofexams,studentsareo
