2016年寧夏成人學位英語考試試題答案+920085687=真品Questions 1-5 are based on the following passageA great difference between American social customs and those of other countries is the way in which names are used. Americans have little concern for “rank”, especially socially. Most Americans do not want to be treated in any especially respectful way because of their age or social rank; it makes them feel uncomfortable. Many Americans even find the terms “Mr.”, “Mrs” or “Miss” too formal. People of all ages may prefer to be called by their first names. “Dont call me Mrs Smith. Just call me Sally.” Using only first names usually indicates friendliness and acceptance. However, if you do not feel comfortable using only first names, it is quite acceptable to be more formal. Just smile and say that after a while you will use first names but you are accustomed to being more when you first meet someone.Very often, introductions are made using both first and last names: “ Mary Smith, this is John Jones.” In this situation you are free to decide whether to call the lady “Mary” or “Miss Smith”. Sometimes both of you will begin a conversation using last names, and after a while one or both of you may begin using first names instead. You have a choice: if you dont want to use first names so quickly, no one will think it impolite if you continue according to you own custom.1. In the first paragraph the author tells us thatA. Americans do not talk about rank, especially sociallyB. Americans feel uncomfortable when talking about rankC. Americans tae interests in social customsD. Americans dont care much about social rank2. According to the passage, most Americans feel when they are treated especially respectfully owing to their age or social rank.A. sick B. sorry C. uneasy D. embarrassed3. Which of the following statements in NOT true?A. The way names are used in America is different from those of other countries.B. Many Americans are used to being called by their first names.C. It shows friendliness and kindness to use only first names.D. When you talk to people in the United States, you have to use their first names.4. If an American lady say “Dont call me Mrs Smith, just call me Sally.” that showsA. she is not a married womanB. she prefers to be called “Sally”C. she is not Mrs SmithD. she likes to be more formal5. The passage youve just read would most likely be found in aA. guide-book for touristsB. book about American historyC. noticeD. short storyPASSAGE 1美國與其他國家社會習俗的一個顯著不同是名字的使用方式。美國人很少關注“級別”，特別是在社交方面。多數(shù)美國人不想因其年長或者級別高而受到特別的尊敬。這種特別的尊敬會讓他們感到局促不安。很多美國人甚至認為稱呼“先生”、“女士”和“小姐”過于正式。他們無論年長或者年少可能更愿意別人稱他們的名字?！安灰Q呼我史密斯女士，就叫我薩利好了?！敝环Q呼名字常常意味著友好和接納。但是如果只稱呼名字你會感到不安，正式一些是完全可以接受的。只要微笑著說過一會兒你會稱呼名字，但是第一次見面你習慣于比較正式的稱呼。通常介紹時會同時使用姓和名：“瑪麗史密斯，這位是約翰瓊斯。”在這種情況下，你可以自由決定稱呼這位女士“瑪麗”還是“史密斯小姐”。你們有時會以稱呼對方的姓開始交談，不久其中一人或兩人同時開始稱呼名字。你可以選擇：如果你不想這么快就稱呼名字，沒有人會認為你按照自己的習慣繼續(xù)稱呼姓氏是不禮貌的。答案解析：1. D 第一段講道美國人很少關注“級別”，特別是在社交方面。多數(shù)美國人不想因其年長或者級別高而受到特別的尊敬。這種特別的尊敬會讓他們感到局促不安。比較四個選項，D的意思最準確、最符合原文。2. C 第一段原文提到 多數(shù)美國人因其年長或者級別高而受到特別的尊敬時會感到局促不安。所以選C。 “uncomfortable” 在本文中應該理解為“局促不安的”(ill at ease; uneasy).3. D 第一段結(jié)尾提到 如果只稱呼名字你會感到不安，正式一些是完全可以接受的。只要微笑著說過一會兒你會稱呼名字，但是第一次見面你習慣于比較正式的稱呼。所以與美國人談話并不一定必須(have to)稱呼名字。4. B 從引文的上下文中可以推斷出 “Mrs. Smith”是比較正式的稱呼，而美國人更喜歡直接稱呼名字。所以選擇 B5. A 本文主要介紹美國的社會習俗 社交場合的稱呼，與歷史無關、不是通知的形式、更不是短篇小說。所以最可能出現(xiàn)在旅游指南上。Passage 2Questions 6-10 are based the following passageLong bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning, a middle, and an end-with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Goodn Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with Pacific Gas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!”The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if youve traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed-new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driver has a style of driving and its fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But youve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and theres a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. By now youve sat with you legs crossed, with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit.6. According to the passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bus trip?A. Buses on the road.B. Films on television.C. Advertisements on the board.D. Gas stations.7. What is the purpose of this passage?A. To give the writers opinion about long bus trips.B. To persuade you to take a long bus trip.C. To explain how bus trips and television shows differ.D. To describe the billboards along the road.8. The writer of this passage would probably favorA. bus drivers who werent recklessB. driving aloneC. a television set on the busD. no billboards along the road9. The writer feels long bus rides are like TV shows becauseA. the commercials both on TV shows and on billboards along the road are funB. they both have a beginning, a middle, and an end, with commercials in betweenC. the drivers are always reckless on TV shows just as they are on busesD. both traveling and watching TV are not exciting10. The writer thinks that the end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning because both areA. exciting B. comfortable C. tiring D. boringPASSAGE2乘坐長途車就如同欣賞電視秀，有開端、有情節(jié)、也有結(jié)尾，每隔三四分鐘插播商業(yè)廣告。商業(yè)廣告不可避免。無論是否需要，都會出現(xiàn)。車窗外每幾分鐘就有商業(yè)廣告牌閃過。“買超級清潔牙膏”、“喝個痛快就喝無醇飲料”、“充太平洋天然氣”。只有睡覺，如同關掉電視機，才能躲避無休止的叫喊“你需要這個!現(xiàn)在就買吧!”旅程的開始是舒適并且有些興奮的，即使曾經(jīng)走過那條路。通常一些事物有變化，新房子、新建筑、有時甚至新道路。司機有駕駛的風格，在一開始辨認出這種風格是一種樂趣。如果司機橫沖直撞、敢于冒險，旅程將如同懸念小說一樣驚險刺激。司機會恰好超過那輛卡車嗎?司機會開左車道還是右車道?當然，不久刺激感漸漸消失了。睡一會有助于度過旅途中間幾個小時。食物始終讓旅行更有趣味。但是要注意吃哪種食物。過于咸的食物能使你在站間非?？诳省Ｂ眯薪Y(jié)尾與開端有些相似。你知道旅程將很快結(jié)束，就會產(chǎn)生一種期待和興奮。座位一定隨著時間變得更加堅硬?，F(xiàn)在你雙腿交叉著坐著，雙手交叉墊在腦后。旅程適時結(jié)束。恰好沒有其他坐姿了。答案解析：6、C 第一段中介紹了乘客在坐長途車過程中所見的是廣告牌。 “the commercials”是“商業(yè)廣告”的意思;“billboard” 是“廣告牌”的意思，即 “advertisements on the board”。7、 A 全文主要介紹作者對乘車長途旅行的感受。8、 D 第一段作者認為“商業(yè)廣告不可避免”和“只有睡覺才能躲避廣告”，由此可以推斷出作者不喜歡沿途的廣告牌。9、 B 根據(jù)文章第一段第一句和第二句“乘坐長途車就如同欣賞電視秀，有開端、有情節(jié)、也有結(jié)尾，每隔三四分鐘插播商業(yè)廣告”可知。10、A 根據(jù)文章第二段第一句“旅程的開始是舒適并且有些興奮的”和第三段第二句“你知道旅程將很快結(jié)束，就會產(chǎn)生一種期待和興奮”可知。Passage 3Questions 11-15 are based on the following passageNo poem should ever be discussed or “analyzed”, until it has been read aloud by someone, teacher or student. Better still, perhaps, is the practice of reading it twice, once at the beginning of the discussion and once at the end, so the sound of the poem is the last thing one hears of it.All discussions of poetry are, in fact, preparations for reading it aloud, and the reading of the poem is, finally, the most telling “interpretation” of it, suggesting tone, rhythm, and meaning all at once. Hearing a poet read the work in his or her own voice, on records or on film, is obviously a special reward. But even those aids to teaching can not replace the student and teacher reading it or, best of all, reciting it.I have come to think, in fact, that time spent reading a poem aloud is much more important than “analyzing” it, if there isnt time for both. I think one of our goals as teachers of English is to have students love poetry. Poetry is “a criticism of life”, “a heightening of life, enjoyment with others”. It is “an approach to the truth of feeling”, and it “can save your life” It also deserves a place in the teaching of languages and literature more central than it presently occupies.I am not saying that every English teacher must teach poetry. Those who dont like it should not be forced to put that dislike on anyone else. But those who do teach poetry must keep in mind a few things about its essential nature, about its sound as well as its sense, and they must make room in the classroom for hearing poetry as well as thinking about it.11. According to the passage, to have a better understanding of a poem, the best way isA. to discuss it with othersB. to analyze it by oneselfC. to hear it read outD. to practice reading it aloud12. The recitation of a poetry by the teacher or a student in the classroomA. is the best way to understand itB. easily arouses some discussion among the studentsC. helps the teachers to analyse itD. can not take the place of the poet reading it analyse13. According to the author, one of the purposes of teaching English is getting studentsA. to criticize life B. to like poetryC. to enjoy life D. to teach poetry14. What does the last sentence in the third paragraph imply?A. The teaching of poetry should have been much more stressedB. The teaching of poetry is more important than the teaching of any other subject.C. One cannot enjoy life fully without an understanding of poetry.D. Poetry is the foundation of all languages and literature courses.15. The phrase “make room” in the last paragraph can be best replaced byA. “build a booth” B. “provide equipment”C. “l(fā)eave a certain amount of time” D. “set aside enough space”PASSAGE 3在教師或者學生朗讀之前，絕不應該討論或者“分析”詩歌。朗讀兩次大概更好，一次在討論開始時，另一次在結(jié)尾，這樣人們最后聽到的是詩歌的朗誦。事實上，討論詩都是為朗讀做準備，并且讀詩最終是對詩歌最生動有效的詮釋，同時表現(xiàn)出語調(diào)、節(jié)奏和意義。顯而易見，傾聽詩人讀自己的作品，無論是錄音還是錄像，都會帶來特別的收益。但是即使教學輔助設備也無法取代學生和教師朗讀詩，最好能夠背誦。我想到事實上如果時間有限，朗讀詩的重要性遠大于“分析”詩。我認為作為英語教師，我們的目標之一是使學生熱愛詩歌。詩是“生活的批判”、“生活的升華，與他人的共享?！痹娛恰巴ㄍ鎸嵡楦械牡缆贰?，“能夠拯救生命”。在語言和文學教學中，詩也理應占據(jù)比現(xiàn)在更重要的位置。我并不是說每位英語教師必須教授詩歌。己所不欲，勿施于人。但是教授詩歌者必須牢記一些關于詩歌本質(zhì)、聲音和感覺的知識，也必須在課堂留出聆聽和思考的時間。答案解析：11、D 第一段第一句強調(diào)朗讀詩應置于討論和“分析”之前，第二段第一句進一步說討論詩都是為朗讀做準備，并且朗讀詩最終是對詩歌最生動有效的詮釋。第三段第一句也強調(diào)朗讀詩的重要性遠大于“分析”詩。因此，朗讀、討論、分析三者比較，練習朗讀詩是能夠更好的理解詩的最好方式。12、A 第二段最后一句講即使教學輔助設備也無法取代學生和教師朗讀詩，最好能夠背誦。由此可以推斷出背誦是理解詩的最好方式。13、B 第三段講我認為作為英語教師，我們的目標之一是使學生熱愛詩歌。所以答案是熱愛詩。14、A 第三段最后一句在語言和文學教學中，詩也理應占據(jù)比現(xiàn)在更重要的位置。所以應強調(diào)詩歌教學。應選A 注： “stress” 是“強調(diào)”的意思 (To place emphasis on; emphasize)15、C “make room for” 本意是“為騰出空位”。此處應理解為在課上安排時間聆聽和思考詩歌，即 “l(fā)eave a certain amount of time”之意。Vocabulary and StructureDirections: For each sentence there are four choices marked A, B, C and D.

This is the place the foreign guests are going to visitA. where B. when C. how D. whichPart 詞匯語法解析1、B 本題測試的是詞義辨析。本句的意思是：“如果你開著前燈，你本可以避免車禍的發(fā)生。” 給出的四個答案中， A. miss 是“錯過，避免”的意思，例如：The two planes missed disaster by a few inches when they nearly collided. B. avoid的意思是“避免發(fā)生某事”(prevent sth from happening)，例如：I turned to the side of the road to avoid a collision. C. escape 做及物動詞是“(人)逃避，避開”的意思，例如：We go south to escape the winter. D. dismiss (from) 是“解雇，開除，遣散”的意思，比較正式，例如：If you are late again, youll be dismissed (from your job). 選項A、B、C、都有“避免”的意思，但只有B avoid 含有采取主觀行動避免災難發(fā)生的意思。2、A/B 本題的意思是：“除了值班的警察，街道空無一人。”本題考察的是詞組辨析。Except 含有“除之外”或“除了”的意思時，用于非同類事物進行比較, 通常用作介詞而不是連詞,人稱代詞用于except 之后時通常用賓格，如果強調(diào)極其特殊的、極少數(shù)的例外情況，常與for連用。but的意思是“除了”，常常連接兩個并列人稱作主語，例如：No one has read it but me.或者No one but me has read it. Besides的意思是“除以外，還有”，介詞，指“在整體中加入一部分”，表示遞加的概念，含義是肯定的。就此分析A或B均可,只是B用法更習慣一些。3、A 本題測試的是詞義辨析。本句的意思是：“據(jù)說他犯了謀殺罪。” A. commit 是“犯(錯誤、罪刑)”的意思，賓語常常是表示罪名的詞，如：commit a crime/a sin/suicide/murder. B. conduct 是“指揮、領導”的意思，如：conduct a meeting C. execute 是“執(zhí)行、實行”的意思，如：execute the decisions of the government D. emit 是“發(fā)射、發(fā)出”的意識，如：a stove emitting heat4、A 本題測試的是if從句的虛擬語氣。本題的意思是：“如果太陽從東邊升起，我就聽你的?！?If從句表示與將來的事實可能相反(對將來的事實實現(xiàn)的可能性不大)的結(jié)構(gòu)是從句：If + 主語 + should (或were) + 動詞原形(were +動詞不定式) + 主句：主語 + would (could, should, might) + 動詞原形 +5、C 本題測試的是詞組的固定搭配，in return 是固定搭配，意思是“作為回報或回復的”， 本句的意思是：“他讓我用他的電腦，作為回報我請他吃晚飯?！逼渌~并無此搭配。6、B 本題測試的是強調(diào)句型“It is (was)thatwho”當強調(diào)的是人的時候用who ,其他都用that;who和that都不能省略。本句的意思是：“直到回到家，她才想起與醫(yī)生的約會?！睆娬{(diào)的是時間狀語 “直到她回到家”，所以應選 that。7、D would have done sth與must have done sth都表示對過去時間里可能發(fā)生的事情的推測后者語氣較強，具有肯定，務必的意思;前者有 “本來要/會”的意思。本句的意思是：“我們不知道他的電話號碼，否則我們本來會打電話給他的?！彼詰xD8、A 本題測試的是risk v. sth/doing sth的用法，例如：By criticizing the boss he risked losing his job. 本句的意思是：“不要冒險失去這個許多人夢寐以求的機會?！保鶕?jù)句意，此事不至于危及生命，所以D選項不合邏輯，并且 “冒著生命危險做事”應表述為risk ones life doing sth, 例如：She risked her life trying to save the drowning child. 所以本題應選 A9、C 本題測試的是搭配。A reason 是“原因，理由”的意思，應與“to do”搭配，例如：They have said the new product will be a success, and I see no reason to doubt it. B excuse 是“借口、理由”的意思，應與“for doing sth”或者“to do sth”搭配，例如：his excuse for being late; to think of an excuse to leave C point 有“目的、好處”之意，與“in/of doing sth”搭配。例如：I see no point in trying to persuade himhell never change his mind. D chance 是“機會、可能”的意思，應與“to do sth” 搭配，例如：He had no chance to apologize. 所以應選C本句的意思是：“我在公司做得很好，看不出離開那有什么好處。”10、A Hardly/Scarcelywhen和no soonerthan固定搭配，意義相當于as soon as,引導時間狀語從句，表示過去發(fā)生的事情，主句為過去完成時，從句為過去時，如hardly或no sooner位于句首時語氣強，而且主句的謂語要用部分倒裝。當Not until引出主從復合句，主句部分倒裝，not until從句不倒裝，例如：Not until the early years of the 19th century did man know what heat is.11、B本題測試的是go on doing sth和go on to do sth的區(qū)別，go on doing sth 是“繼續(xù)做同一件事”的意思，go on to do sth是“(做完一件事后)繼續(xù)做另一件事”的意思。本句的意思是：“他完成閱讀后，繼續(xù)寫作文”，是做不同的事，所以應選B12、C 本題測試的是虛擬過去時if從句的省略。虛擬過去時if 從句的謂語形式用過去完成時即had+過去分詞，主句用would / should / could / might + have +過去分詞，有時可以連詞if 省去，而將had , should, were 等詞提到主語之前，即用倒裝結(jié)構(gòu)。 If it had not been for his help(=but for his help),we would not have succeeded.13、D 本題測試的是主謂一致和詞組consist of 的用法。committee 是集合名詞，謂語動詞可以用單數(shù)或復數(shù)，當委員會作為一個整體時，用單數(shù)謂語，例如：The committee controls school spending. 當強調(diào)委員會的成員個體時，用復數(shù)謂語。本句的意思是：“現(xiàn)在委員會由7名成員組成”，強調(diào)整體，所以用單數(shù)謂語。同時，consist of sth 不用進行時。此句雖然有now作為時間狀語，但仍然用一般現(xiàn)在時。所以選D14、A 本題測試的是詞義辨析。本句的意思是：“現(xiàn)在沒有空位給遲到的觀眾”。A available 是“可獲得、可用的
