Passage 1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage：

The reflective towers of New York City，which is on the Atlantic migrating(迁徙的) route ，can be deadly for birds. “We live in an a ge of glass，” said https://www.wendangku.net/doc/e57087010.html,urel，an arch itect.(76)“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights，and the larger the glass，the more d angerous it is.” About 90，000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each ye ar. Often，they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby p arks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds，after habitat (栖息地)loss，with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year.

(77)As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade，so，too，have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard f or new building in July. The United States Green Building Council，a nonprofit industry g roup that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings，will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process.

There are no easy fixes，however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet(紫外线的)signals，but they are still in their infancy. Covers，dot patterns，s hades and net are the main options available.

Often，only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don…t necessarily ha ve to treat every window，” https://www.wendangku.net/doc/e57087010.html,urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.” The Jacob Convention Center，which has been undergoing alterations，the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes.

Passage 2

Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage：

Today…s students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R.，and they live in a world where amazing innovations(革新)are common. The current 18-year-olds，a fter all，were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford;Mark Zuckerberg f ounded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Hav ing grown up digital(数字的)，they are impatient to get on with life.

The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship(企业家才能)education，in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.

A report published last year by the Kauffman Foundation，which finances programs t o promote innovation on campuses，noted that more than 50，000 entrepreneurship progra ms are offered on two-and four-year campuses—up from just 250 courses in 1985. Lesa Mitchell ，a Kauffman vice president，says that the foundation is extending the reach of i ts academic influence，which used to be found only in business schools. Now，the concep t of entrepreneurship is blooming in engineering programs and medical school，and even i n the liberal arts. “Our interest is the programs，”she says. “We need to spread out from the business school.”

Either as class projects or on their own，students in a variety of majors are coming up with ideas，writing business plans and seeing them through to prototype and，often，m arket. In their spare time，students in agricultural economics at Purdue invent new uses fo r bean;industrial design majors at Syracuse，in special laboratory，create wearable technolo gies.

(78)The entrepreneurship movement has its critics，especially among those who see co llege as a time for e xtensive academic exploration. “I just don…t think that entrepreneurshi p ranks so high in terms of national need，” says Daniel S.Greenberg，author of Science for sale：The perils，Rewards and Delusions of Campus Capitalism.

Leonard A.Schlesinger，Babson Coll ege…s president，says that the question of whether innovation can really be taught is “an age-old argument”

6. When Google and Facebook were established，the founders were still_____.

A. in high school

B. in the army

8. The word “prototype” in the fourth paragraph is most likely to mean_____.

A. model

B. strategy

C. method

D. stage

9. What does Daniel S.Grennberg think of entrepreneurship education?

A. Entrepreneurship，or at least certain elements of it，can be taught.

B. An entrepreneurship program can help students find what they really like and entr epreneurship isn…t all about business.

C. Entrepreneurship should be spread across different fields.

D. Colle ges shouldn…t put too much emphasis on entrepreneurship programs.

10. What is the main idea of the passage?

A. Entrepreneurship courses in business schools.

B. Qualities of an entrepreneur.

C. Entrepreneurship education in colleges.

D. Kids in the information age.

Question 11 to 15 are based on the following passage：

Regret is as common an emotion as love or fear，and it can be nearly as powerful. So，in a new paper，two researchers set about trying to find out what the typical Americ an regrets most. In telephone surveys，Neal Rose，a psychologist and professor of marketi

ng at the School of Management at Northwestern Universtiy，and Mike Morrison，a docto ral candidate in psychology at University of Illinois，asked 370 Americans，aged 19 to 10 3，to talk about their most notable regret .Participants were asked what the regret was，w hen it happened，whether it was a result of something they did or didn…t do，and whether it was something that could still be fixed.

The most commonly mentioned regret involved romance (浪漫的事)(18%)——lost lov es or unfulfilled relationships. Family regrets came in second (16%)，whit people still feeli ng badly about being unkind to their brothers or sisters in childhood. Other frequently rep orted regrets involved career (13%) ，education (12%)，money(10%) and parenting(9%)。

Rose and Morrison…s study，which is to be published in social psychological and pers onality science，is significant in that it surveyed a wide range of the American public，in cluding people of all ages and socio-economic and educational backgrounds. Previous studi es on regret have focused largely on college students，who predictably tend to have educa tion-focused regrets，like wishing they had studied harder or a different major. The new s urvey shows that in the larger population，a person…s major. The new survey shows that i n the larger population，a person…s “life circumstances—accomplishments，shortcomings ，s ituation in life—inject considerable fuel into the fires of regret，”the authors write.

(79)People with less education，for instance were more likely to report education regr et. People with higher levels of education had the most career regrets. And those with no romantic partner tended to hold regrets regarding love. Broken down(分解、细分)by sex，more women(44%) than men (19%) had regrets about love and family——not surprising，since women “value social relationships more than men，” the authors write. In contrast ，men (34%)were more likely than women (27%)to mention work-related regrets，wishing th

ey…d chosen a different career pa th，for instance ，or followed their passion.(80)Many part icipants also reported wishing they had worked less to spend more time with their childre n.

There was an even split between regrets about inaction (not doing something)and acti on (do something you w ish you didn…t).But，like previous studies，the current research fou nd that some regrets are more likely than others to persist over time：people tend to hang on longer to the regret of inaction;meanwhile，regrets of action tend to be more recent.

11.In the second paragraph，the author shows ______.

A. the researchers… findings

B. the importance of family

C. the importance of money

D. the importance of career

12. According to the passage ，college student participants mainly had regrets about t heir ______.

B. The more education he or she has，the less regrets she or he would have.

C. More women than men had regrets about love and family.

D. The regret of action seems to last longer than that of inaction.

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案

成人本科学士学位英语考试_附答案 Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: Is that 6 a.m. workout getting in the way of good sleep? Don ' t think your fat cells won't notice. A new study published in The Annals of Internal Medicine (a medical journal) finds that inadequate shut-eye has a harmful effect on fat calls, reducing their ability to respond to insulin ( 胰岛素) by about 30 percent. Over the long-term ，this decreased response could set-the stage for type-2 diabetes (a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in his or her blood), f atty liver disease and weight gain . The study adds to a growing body of evidence that there 's“ an intimate relationship between the amount of sleep we get and our ability to maintain a good ，healthy body weight ” says sleep expert Helene Emsellem ，director of the Center for Sleep and Wake Disorders in Chevy Chase ，Maryland. (76) But Americans don ' t seem to be getting the message that we need seven to nine hours per night. More than 1 in 5 of us ，according to a report form the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ，is getting six or fewer hours of sleep per night ，on average. So how did researchers study fat cells in the Annals paper? Matthew Brady of the University of Chicago and a group of colleagues selected and persuaded seven volunteers to take part in the research project. They were all young ，thin and healthy and agreed to sleep for eight nights in a sleep lab. “ For four nights they were allowed to stay in bed for 8.5 hours a night ，” says Brady. Then ，a month later ，they came back for four additional nights —but this time they were allowed just 4.5 hours of sleep per night. And after each visit ，researchers got a sample of their fat.(77) Brady explains that the fat cells responded significantly to the loss of sleep. “ I was very surprised to be honest ，” he says. Bad things can happen when fat cells become less responsive to insulin. “ Fat cells are actually your friend ，”he says. “They 're there to store lipids( 血脂).” When lipids stay inside the cells ，your body can utilize the fat when you ' re exercising or sleeping or going about your day. “ However ，when fat cells start to become insulin resistant ，the lipids start to leach out of the fat cells and rise in the bloodstream ，” Brady says. 1.According to the passage ，lack of the sleep for a long while can probably lead to all of the following EXCEPT ______ . 第一段最后一句 A.heart disease B. weight gain C. diabetes D. liver disease 2.The main idea of the third paragraph is . 第一句 A.how to write a medical research paper B. how to avoid sleep loss C. how the research was conducted D. how to conduct a medical experiment 3.What does the word “ leach ” in the last paragraph probably mean? A.Leap B. Lead. C. Lead. D. Leak . 泄露

成人学位英语词汇易混淆的125个词 成人本科学位英语考试，除了《成人学士英语词汇手册》列出的词之外，我们学习词汇时还应注意容易混淆的词。英语中有些词，词形和读音相近，但意义却不同；有些同义词，基本意义相同，但内涵的意义有很大差异。我们必须在广泛阅读的基础上，仔细观察每一个词在不同上下文中的含义和用法，从而学会正确使用它。 1.able, capable, competent able为常用词，指具有做某事所需的力量，技巧，知识与时间等，一般下效率无关，用作定语表示能力超出平均水平。如：A cat is able to see in the dark. (猫在黑暗中能看见东西。) capable 指满足一般要求的能力，可以是表现出来的，也可是潜在的，搭配是be capable of +doing。用作定语，表示的能力没有able表示的能力强。如：He is capable of running a mile in a minute. (他能在一分钟内跑完一英里。)He is a very capable doctor. (他是一位很好的大夫。) competent 指“胜任”，“合格”，或受过专业技术等训练的，但不是超群的能力。如：A doctor should be competent to treat many diseases. (医生应该能治多种病。) 2.aboard, abroad, board, broad aboard 在船(或飞机，车)上。如：I never went aboard a ship. abroad 副词，在国外或海外。如：He often goes abroad. board 为动词，上(船，飞机，车)。如：The passengers are boarding the plane now. broad 为形容词，宽广的。如：He has very broad shoulders. 3.accept, receive accept 接受，receive“接到”，“收到”。如：I received an invitation yesterday, but I didn’t accept it.

(由于他的努力，事情都已完成了。) complete 表示积极的完成，更具体地指建筑、工程等的完成。如：Has he complete his novel yet? (他的小说写完了吗？) finish 最常用，后接动词的-ing形式，表示在一个活动的连续过程中完成了最后的一步或阶段。如：I’ll finish the job alone. (我要独自完成这项工作。) achieve 完成，实现，强调通过努力而达到目的。如：You will achieve success if you work hard. Attain达到，实现，常用于一般人的能力不易达到的目的。如：Greater efforts are needed before we can attain our goals. 6.accurate, correct, exact, precise accurate准确的，精确的。如：Clocks in railway stations should be accurate.(火车站的钟应该是准确的。) correct“正确的”，指符合一定的标准或准则，含有“无错误的”意味。它的反义词是incorrect, wrong. exact“精确的”，“恰好的”，比“大体上正确”更进一步，表“丝毫不差”。它的反义词是inexact。 precise强调“精确”，“精密”。 7.accuse, charge, sue

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案

成人本科学士学位英语统一考试题及答案 2011.11.05 PartⅠReading Comprehension （30%） Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: The reflective towers of New York City, which is on the Atlantic migrating（迁徙的）route , can be deadly for birds. “We live in an age of glass,”said https://www.wendangku.net/doc/e57087010.html,urel, an architect.（76）“It can be a perfect mirror in certain lights, and the larger the glass, the more dangerous it is.” About 90,000 birds are killed by flying into building in the city each year. Often, they strike the lower levels of glass towers after searching for food in nearby parks. Such crashes are the second-leading cause of death for migrating birds, after habitat（栖息地）loss, with an estimated number of death ranging up to a billion a year. （77）As glass office and apartment towers have increased in the last decade, so, too, have calls to make them less deadly to birds. San Francisco adopted bird-safety standard for new building in July. The United States Green Building Council, a nonprofit industry group that encourages the creation of environmentally conscious buildings, will introduce a bird-safety credit this as part of its environmental certification process. There are no easy fixes, however. A few researchers are exploring glass designs that use ultraviolet（紫外线的）signals, but they are still in their infancy. Covers, dot patterns, shades and net are the main options available. Often, only one section of a building needs to be changed. “You don't necessarily have to treat every window,”https://www.wendangku.net/doc/e57087010.html,urel said. “It would be too expensive to do the whole building.”The Jacob Convention Center, which has been undergoing alterations, is the most recent building to voluntarily correct the problem of bird crashes. The architects used less reflective glass and dot patterns. 1. What is the main idea of the passage? A. New York is a city of glass towers. B. Glass tower are dangerous for migrating birds. C. New York adopted new safety standards for buildings. D. Glass towers are a new trend in the United States. 2. What is the number one cause of death for migrating birds? A. Climate change B. Habitat loss C. Lack of food D. Crashing into buildings. 3. What does the word “fixes”in the third paragraph probably mean? A. Choices B. Explanations C. Solutions D. Developments 4. _____are used in the alteration of the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. A. Dot patterns B. Shades C. Nets D. Covers 5. Which of the fowling statements is TRUE according to the passage? A. In many cases, the whole building needs to be altered to prevent bird crashes. B. The Jacob K.Javits Convention Center is the first building to deal with the problem of bird crashes. C. About 90,000 birds are killed due to habitat loss in New York City each year. D. Unfortunately, glass designs that use ultraviolet signals are still in their early stages. Passage 2 Question 6 to 10 are based on the fowling passage: Today's students have grown up hearing more about Bill Gates than F.D.R., and they live in a world where amazing innovations（革新）are common. The current 18-year-olds, after all, were 8 when Google was founded by two students at Stanford; Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook in 2004 while he was Harvard and they were entering high school. Having grown up digital（数字的），they are impatient to get on with life. The easiest way to find kids like these is to check in on entrepreneurship（企业家才能）education, in which colleges and universities try to prepare their students to recognize opportunities and seize them.

成人本科学士学位英语考试试题及答案(B卷)

成人本科学士学位英语考试试题及答案(B卷) Part I Reading Comprehension (30%) Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1 Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage: In the United States elementary education begins at the age of six. At this stage nearly ail the teachers are women, mostly married. (76) The atmosphere is usually very friendly, and the teachers have now accepted the idea that the important thing is to make the children happy and interested. The old authoritarian (要绝对服从的) methods of education were discredited (不被认可) rather a long time ago - so much so that many people now think that they have gone too far in the direction of trying to make children happy and interested rather than giving them actual instruction. The social education of young children tries to make them accept the idea that human beings in a society need to work together for their common good. So the emphasis is on co-operation rather than competition throughout most of this process. This may seem curious, in view of the fact that American society is highly competitive; however, the need for making people sociable in this sense has come to be regarded as one of the functions of education. Most Americans do grow up with competitive ideas, and obviously quite a few as criminals, but it is not fair to say that the educational system fails. It probably does succeed in making most people sociable and ready to help one another both in material ways and through kindness and friendliness. 1. According to the passage, the U.S. elementary education is supposed to make children__________. A. sensible and sensitive B. competitive and interested C. curious and friendly D. happy and co-operative 2. Some Americans complain about elementary schools because they think__________. A. children are reluctant to help each other B. schools lay too much emphasis on co-operation C. children should grow up with competitive ideas D. schools give little actual instruction to children 3. The author's attitude towards American education can be best described as__________. A. favorable B. negative C. tolerant D. unfriendly 4. The American educational system emphasizes__________. A. material wealth B. competition C. co-operation D. personal benefit 5. The word "sociable" (Line 8, Paragraph 2) most probably means__________. A. fond of talking freely B. friendly with other people C. concerned about social welfare D. happy at school Passage 2
