Prat I Reading Comprehension （共 20 小题，每小题 2 分，共 40 分） Directions: There are 4 passage in this part . Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished
statements . For each of them there are 4 choices marked A,B,C and D. You should decide
on the best choice and mark your answer by blackening the corresponding letter on the
Answer Sheet .
Passage One Questions 1 to 5 based on the following passage .
We use both words and gestures to express our feelings ,but the problem is that these
words and gestures can be understood in different ways .
It is true that a smile means the same thing in any language . So does laughter or
crying . There are also a number of striking similarities in the way different animals show the
same feelings . Dogs , tigers and humans , for example , often show their teeth when they
are angry . This is probably because they are born with those behavior patterns .
Fear is another emotion that is shown in much the same way all over the world . In
Chinese and English literature , a phrase like “ he went pale and
began to tremble ” suggests that the man is either very afraid or deeply shocked .
However , “ he opened his eyes wide ” is used to suggest anger in Chinese whereas in
English it means surprise . In Chinese surprise can be described in a phrase like “ they
stretched out their tongues ” . Sticking out your tongue
in English is an insulting gesture or expresses strong dislike .
Even in the same culture , people differ in the ability to understand and express feelings
Experiments in America have shown that women are usually better than men at recognizing
fear ,anger love and happiness on people ' s faces . Other studies show that older people
usually find it easier to recognize or understand body language than younger people do .

Passage Two Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage .
The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are “copper ” and “ bobby ”. The first name comes form the verb “to cop ” (
which is also slang ) , meaning “to take ” or “ to capture ” , and the second
comes form the first name of Sir Robert Peel , a 19th century politician , who was the founder of the police force as we know it today . An early nickname for the policeman was “ peeler ” , but this one has died out .
Whatever we may call them , the general opinion of the police seems to be a favorable one , except , of course , among the criminal part of the community where the police are given more derogatory nicknames which originated in
America , such as “ fuzz ” or “pig ” . Visitors to England seem to be very impressed by the English police . It has , in fact , because standing joke that the visitor to Britain , when asked for his views of the country , will always say , at some point or other , “I think your policemen are
wonderful ” .
Well , the British bobby not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful sort of character . A music-hall song of some years ago was called “ If You Want To Know The Time , Ask A Policeman ” . Nowadays most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policeman . In London , the policeman spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else .
Two things are immediately noticeable to the stranger when he sees an English policeman for the first time . The first is that does not carry a pistol and the second is that he wears a very
distinctive type of headgear , the policeman ' s helmet . His helmet , together with his height ,
enables an English policeman to be time it is suggested that the policeman should be given a pistol and than his helmet should be taken form him , but both suggestions are resisted by the majority of the public and the police themselves .
6. Nowadays British people call the policeman ______ .
A. pig
B.peeler
C.bobby
D.fuzz
7. Which of following statements is TRUE?

B. B.The English police usually leave a deep impression on visitors .

D. The English police enjoy having pistols .

10. _____________________________________ Visitors praise the English police because .

Passage Three
Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage .
It is difficult to imagine what life would be like without memory . The meanings of thousands of everyday perceptions , the bases for the decisions we make , and the roots of our habits and skills A.they are police and helpful C.they often give thanks
are to be found in our past experiences , which are brought into the present by memory .
Memory can be defined as the capacity to keep information available for latter for later use . It not only includes “ remembering ” things like arithmetic or historical facts but also involves any change in the way an animal typically behaves . Memory is involved when a rat gives up eating grain because he has sniffed something suspicious in the grain pile . Memory is also involved when a six-year-old child learns to swing a baseball bat .
Memory exists not only in humans and animals but also in some physical objects and machines . Computers , for example , contain devices for storing data for later use . It is interesting to compare the memory-storage capacity of a computer with that of a human being . The instant-access memory of a large computer may hold up to 100,000 “ words ” —ready for instant
use . An average
American teenager probably recognizes the meaning of about 100,000 words of English . However , this is but a fraction of the total amount of information which the teenager has stored . Consider , for example , the number of faces and places that the teenager can recognize on sight .
The use of words is the basis of the advanced problem solving intelligence of human beings . A large part of a person ' s memory is in terms of words and
combinations of words .
11. _________________________________________________ According to the passage , memory is considered to be ______________________________ .
A. the basis for decision making and problem solving
B. the ability to store information for future use
C. an intelligence typically possessed by human beings
D. the data mainly consisting of words and combinations of words
12. _____________________ The comparison between the memory capacity of a large computer and that of a human being shows that .
A. computer ' s memory has a little bigger capacity than a teenager ' s
B. computer ' s memory capacity is much smaller than an adult human being 's
C. computer ' s memory capacity is much smaller even than a teenager 's
D. computer 's memory capacity is the same as a teenager ' s
13.It is implied in the passage that _____ .
A. only human beings have problem-solving intelligence
B. a person ' s memory is different from a computer ' s in every respect
C. animals can solve very simple problems
D. animals solve problems by instinct rather than intelligence
14. T he phrase “ in term of” in the last sentence can be best replaced by
a ”
A. in connection with
B.expressed by
C. consisting
D.by means of
15. _______________________________ The main idea of the passage is .
A. what life would be like without memory
B. memory is of vital importance to life
C. how a person 's memory is different form an animal 's or a computer 's
D.what memory carries
Passage Four Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage .
Clearly if we are to participate in the society in which we live we must communicate with other people . A great deal of communication is performed on a person-to-person basis by the simple means of speech . If we travel in buses , buy thing in shops , or eat in restaurants , we are likely to have conversations where we give information or opinions , receive news or comment ,and very likely have our views challenged by other members of society .
Face-to-face contact is by no means the only form of communication and during the last two hundred years the art of mass communication has become one of the dominating factors of contemporary society . Two things , above others , have caused the enormous growth of the communication industry . Firstly , inventiveness has led to advances in printing , telecommunications ,
photography , radio and television . Secondly , speed has revolutionized the transmission and reception of communications so that local news often takes a back seat to national news , which itself is often almost eclipsed （黯然失色）by international news .
No longer is the possession of information confined to a privileged minority . In the last century the wealthy man with his own library was indeed fortunate , but today there are public libraries . Forty years ago people used to flock to the cinema , but now far more people sit at home and turn on the TV to watch a programme the is being channeled into millions of homes .
Communication is no longer merely concerned with the transmission of information . The modern communication industry influences the way people live in society and broadens their horizons by allowing access to information , education and entertainment .The printing , broadcasting and advertising industries are all involved with informing , educating and entertaining .
Although a great deal of the material communicated by the mass media is very valuable to the individual and to the society of which he is a part , the vast modern network of communications is open to abuse . However , the mass media are with us for better or for worse , and there is no turning back .
16. __________________________________ The first paragraph emphasizes the of face-to-face contact in social
https://www.doczj.com/doc/f86558462.html,efulness
B.limitation
C.nature
D.creativity
17. ____________ The development of the communication industry in contemporary society results form ___________ .
A.the advances and revolutions
B.the inventiveness and speed
C.the art of mass communication
D.the advances and speed
18.It is implied in the passage that ______ .
A.local news still takes a significant place
B. National news is becoming more popular
C. Local news used to be the main source of information
D. International news is the fastest transmitted news
19.Which of the following statements is NOT true ?
A.Public libraries have replaced private libraries .
B. To possess information used to be a privilege .
C. Communication means more than transmission .
D. Communication influences the way of life and thinking .
20.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that the writer is ____ .
A.concerned about the wrong use of the mass media
B. happy about the drastic changes in the mass media
C. pessimistic about the future of the mass media
D. Indifferent to the harmful influence of the mass media

Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the answer sheet. Passage One Questions 1～5 are besed on the following passage. Young Koreans are beginning to do it alone when it comes to finding a partner, though matchmaking is still the most common way for boys to meet girls. Professional matchmakers can make thousands of American dollars by introducing suitable marriage partners to each other, but partners also play a role in the process during which young Koreans meet. In Confucius Korea, where marriage is regarded as more of a business contract than a sacred thing, the scene of the first meeting is repeated hundreds of times a day in coffee shops in the main hotels around Seoul. The business of continuing the family lineage （血统）and keeping the blooding pure is often too important to be left to romance and chance encounters. Often, the girl will work out a system of secret signals with her mother, from which her parents can tell if she is interested. For example, if the girl orders a coffee it might mean that she wants her parents to leave her alone with the boy, while a milk shows that she wants them to stay. Sometimes the matchmaking is not always so formal, with the introduction being made by friends. But whether through friends or families, there is hardly a Korean man in the country who has not gone through this process --- sometimes six or seven times. 1. The word “matchmaking” in the passage means ____. A. a very formal ritual（仪式）attended by boys and girls B. introducing boys and girls to know each other for the purpose of marriage C. producing matches to make a fire or light a cigarette D. arranging games between men and women 2. The fact that the first meeting is repeated again and again in coffee shops in the main hotels suggests that ____. A. Koreans like drinking coffee in coffee shops very much B. men and women want to meet as many times as possible C. they are busy with communicating with different people D. marriage is seen as a business contract instead of something sacred

江苏省2012 年普通高校专转本统一英 语考试 第一卷（共100 分） Part I Reading Comprehension(共20 题，每题 2 分，共40 分) Passage One Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage. American researchers have developed a technique that may become an important tool in fighting AIDS. The technique stops the AIDS virus from attacking its target-cells in the body's defense system. When AIDS virus enters the blood, it searches for blood cells called T4 lymphocytes （淋巴细胞）. The virus connects to the outside of T4 lymphocytes, then forces its way inside. There it directs the cells' genetic （基因的）material to produce copies of the AIDS virus. This is how AIDS spreads.Researchers think they may be able to stop AIDS from spreading by preventing virus from connecting to T4 cells. When AIDS virus finds a T4 cell, it actually connects to a part of the cell called CD4 protein.Researchers want to fool the virus by putting copies or clones of the CD4 protein into the blood. This way the AIDS virus will connect to the cloned protein instead of the real ones. Scientists use the genetic engineering methods to make the clones. Normally a CD4 protein remains on the T4 cell at all times. The AIDS virus must go to it.In a new technique, however, the cloned CD4 protein is not connected to a cell. It floats freely, so many more can be put into the blood to keep the AIDS virus away from real CD4 proteins on T4 cells. One report says the AIDS virus connects to the cloned proteins j ust as effectively as to real protein. That report was based on tests with blood cells grown in labs. The technique is just now beginning t o be tested in animals. If successful, it may be tested in humans within a year. 1. The new technique can ________. A. cure AIDS B. kill the AIDS virus C. prevent the AIDS virus from spreading D. produce new medicines for AIDS 2. When the AIDS virus enters the blood, it is reproduced by ________. A. the inside of the virus itself B. any blood cells in the body C. the CD4 protein D. the genetic material of T4 cells 3 The AIDS virus connects to cloned proteins instead of to the real ones because ________. A. the cloned proteins stay on the T4 cells B. the cloned proteins can float freely in the blood C. it connects to cloned proteins more effectively than to the real ones D. the cloned proteins are made by genetic engineering methods 4. Which of the following statements is NOT true? A. The new technique has been tested in labs. B. The new technique is being tested in animals. C. The new technique may be tested in humans. D. The new technique is now under clinical test. 5 Which of the following could be the best title of this passage? A. AIDS---a Fatal Disease. B. A New Technique in fighting AIDS. C. A Report on the Spread of AIDS Virus. D. The Technique of Cloned CD4 Protein. Passage TWO Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage. During the early ears of last century, wheat was seen as the very lifeblood of Western Canada.

Each passage is followed by four comprehension questions. Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet. Passage One Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Animals react to the changing seasons with changes in mood and behavior and human beings are no exception. Most people find they eat and sleep slightly more in winter and dislike the dark mornings and short days. For some, however, symptoms (症状) are severe enough to damage their lives and to cause considerable stress. These people are suffering from SAD. The symptoms tend to start from around September each year lasting until April, but are at their worst in the darkest months. The standard figure says that around 2% of people in Northern Europe suffer badly, with many more (10%) putting up with milder symptoms. Across the world the incidence (发生率) increases with distance from the equator (赤道), except where there is snow on the ground, when it becomes less common. More women than men are found having SAD. Children and young people can also suffer from it. The problem stems from the lack of bright light in winter. Researchers have proved that bright light makes a difference to the brain chemistry, although the exact means by which sufferers are affected is not yet known. As the cause is lack of bright light, the treatment is to be in bright light every day by using a lightbox or a similar bright treatment. (Going to a brightly-lit climate, whether skiing or somewhere hot, is indeed a cure). The preferred level
