Section B
Passage One
A friend of mine told me that when he was a young man, he went to work as a teacher in one of the states of India. One day he received an invitation to dinner at the ruler’s palace. Very pleased, he went to tell his colleagues. They laughed and told him the meaning of the invitation. They had all been invited and each person who was invited has to bring with him a certain number of silver and gold coins. The number of coins varied according to the person’s position in the service of the government.
My friend’s income was not high, so he did not have much to pay. Each person bound before the ruler, his gold went onto one hip, his silver went onto another hip, and in this way he paid his income tax for the year. This was a simple way of collecting income tax.
The tax on property was also collected simply: The ruler gave a man the power to collect a tax from each owner of land or property in a certain area if this man promised to pay the ruler a certain amount of money. Of course the tax collector managed to collect more money than he paid to the ruler. The difference between the sum of money he collected and the sum of money he gave to the ruler was his profit.
Questions 11 to 13 are based on the passage you have just heard.
11. What do we know about the speaker’s friend?
12. What was the real purpose of the ruler’s invitation?
13. What does the passage say about the tax collectors?
Passage Two
Around the year 1000A. D. , some people from Northwest India began to travel westwards. Nobody knows why. After leaving their homes, they did not settle down again but spent their lives moving from one place to another. Their later generations are called the Romany people or Gypsies. There are Gypsies all over the world. And many of them are still traveling with no fixed homes. There are about 8 million of them, including 3 million in Eastern Europe.
Gypsies sometimes have a hard time in the countries where they travel, because they are different. People may be afraid of them, look down on them or think that they are criminals. The Nazis treated the Gypsies cruelly, like the Jews. And nobody knows how many of them died in Hitler’s death camps.
Gypsies have their own language, Romany. They like music and dancing, and they often work in fairs and traveling shows.
Traveling is very important to them and many Gypsies are unhappy if they have to stay in one place. Because of this, it is difficult for Gypsies children to go to school. And Gypsies are often unable to read and write. In some places, the education authorities try to arrange special traveling schools for Gypsy children so that they can get the same education as other children.
Questions 14 to 16 are based on the passage you have just heard.
14. Why did the ancestors of Gypsies leave their home?
15. What is the attitude of some people towards Gypsies?
16. What measure has been taken to help Gypsy children?
Passage Three
As the car industry develops, traffic accidents have become as familiar as the common cold. Yet their cause and control remain a serious problem that is difficult to solve.
Experts have long recognized that this discouraging problem has multiple causes. At the very least it is a problem that involves three factors: the driver, the vehicle and the roadway. If all drivers exercised good judgement at all time, there would be few accidents. But this is rather like saying that if all people were honest, there would be no crime. Improved design has helped to make highways much safer. But the title of accidents continues to rise because to human failure and an enormous increase in the number of automobiles on the road. Attention is now turning increasingly to the third factor of the accident are the car itself. Since people assume that the accidents are bound to occur, they want to know how cars can be built better to protect the drivers.
Questions 17 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.
17. What does the speaker think are the causes of automobile accidents?
18. What measure has been taken to reduce car accidents?
19. What remains an important factor for the rising number of road accidents?
20. What’s the focus of people’s attention today according to the passage?
Part
II
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
21. Adders are most likely to be found ________.正确答案:C。
审题:本道题的关键词应该是adders, most likely, found等字眼,可定位到第一自然段倒数第二句。从出题角度来说很具有代表性。1.从审题上应该小心:be most likely to属于比较式问题,意味着还有其他的地方该蛇可以被发现。2.锁定出处时须明白原文中并没有逐字出现问题中的关键词be most likely to be found, 与此相对应的是第一段第三行的prefer(更喜欢)
出题思路:考核同学是否细心,是否具有整体作答的习惯. 文章中说开始提到在Britain蝰蛇随处可见,但第一段最后一句又说,在Ireland几乎就没有蝰蛇。另外选项中的wider属比较级,而原文并没有如此陈述。
出题思路:与原文第二句it can be found anywhere相反
出题思路:wildland对应的是原文中的sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground;throughout Britain对应是原文中的it can be found anywhere;这两点同属关键单词转换及解释。专升本英语考试时应该紧扣选项与原文单词不放。
出题思路:过度推断,主要是对countryside是否等同hillsides and rough open country;前者表示农村乡下,没有山地开阔地的概念。
22. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should ________.正确答案:C。
审题思路:本题定位关键词应该是bitten和should,依此可定位到文章第二自然段
做题思路:无中生有,原文中并没有出现抓蛇这一概念。
出题思路:断章取义。依据原文Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with amateurs(外行人) heroically, but mistakenly, trying do it –yourself surgery(手术) and other unnecessary measures句中的sometimes, amateurs, mistakenly, unnecessary等字眼可以推断出你是可以施救,但是方法措施要得当。本选项过于绝对。
做题思路:本选项在专升本英语考试中很具有代表性,理解本选项的关键是在抓住选项中的not…..too much。意思是被蛇咬是令人担心的,但不可过于担心。从原文中的Most people regard snake bites as a fatal (致命的) misfortune, but not all bites are serious, and very few are fatal句中可以推出此选项为正确答案。
23. We are told that adders are ________.正确答案:B。
审题思路:此题根据问题本身无法定位到原文中,需首先看选项,即根据选项意思及其关键词来推断其问什么和在原文中的准确定位。依据ABCD四个选项可以推断出问题为:蝰蛇与人类的关系,什么情况下会攻击人类。因此可以进一步推出该题的答案应该在文章中的第三自然段。
做题思路:无中生有型,原文没有提到该蛇友好等字眼。而且与22小题中的问题意思相违背。
做题思路:依据原文中的The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely可以推断出该选项的意思。回答本题的关键是能够有效识别长难句---长难句看主干。
做题思路:偷梁换柱。原文中有多个if….条件句,明显与whenever….句不服。考核学员做题细心程度。
做题思路:长难句的考核。依据本选项关键词afraid可以锁定原文中的British snakes are shy animals and far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them句。此句属比较级句型,专升本中常考。
24. If an adder hears you approaching, it will usually _______.正确答案:A。
审题思路:本问题关键词应该为approaching可定位到原文中的If it hears you coming, it will normally get out of the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.
做题思路:原句的同意转换:move out 对应原句get out; path 对应way.
做题思路:错误推断,与原文不符。
做题思路:断章起义:原文是as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly。
做题思路:错误推断。原文是but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close,即没跑赢才会咬,而不是等着去咬。
25. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? 正确答案:C。
审题思路:本题属于典型的三错一对题型,根据问题本身无法定位,需首先看选项,即根据选项意思及其关键词来推断其问什么和在原文中的准确定位。依据ABCD四个选项可以推断出问题为:蝰蛇更有可能咬谁,后果怎么样?
做题思路:错误推断。依据关键词children, adults可定为到原文The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites that adults句,此句中虽然含有children 和adults, 但是谈论的却是小孩被咬的后果比成年人更严重,而不是蛇更愿意咬小孩。
做题思路:错误推断。依据问题中的heavy body依然可以定位到The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites that adults句,道理同选项A.
做题思路:同意转换。依据danger, different from person to person可以定位到The effect of a bite varies considerably.
做题思路:从选项关键词serious illnesses可定位到文章最后一句there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.尽管此句为长难句,但是我们从bits having little or no effect就可以推出,被蛇咬后果并不严重。
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
26. If a company cares about a clean environment while others don’t, it will have to ____正确答案:B。.
审题思路:根据问题关键词a company, other等字眼,我们可以锁定文章出处在if Automobile Company X spends money to put an air-pollution control device on their automobiles, their cars will be more expensive than the cars produced by another company句中,因此正确答案为B.
做题思路: 无中生有。再说了问题中的it指代的是公司,而不是政府,只有政府才能够改变标准
做题思路:原文中列举的是一家汽车制造公司,其products自然就是cars了
做题思路:无中生有,原文是that is , it won’t make enough money to pay its workers and to buy materials.。
做题思路:无中生有,道理同上一个选项。
27. The writer gives the example of Automobile Company X to show that ______.正确答案:A。
审题思路:从问题本身中的example,show 等字眼,我们可以断定这是一道以具体事例问抽象道理的问题,其答案的出处一定是该实例的前一句话,或必须与前一句话相关:Unless anti-pollution standards are enforced for all, companies that care about a clean environment will go out of business.
做题思路:正确理解原文的逻辑关系(unless…..从句)
做题思路:与实例前一句话无关,属无中生有
做题思路:典型的偷梁换柱,将原文的只言片语抽出,胡乱组合,并作无厘头比较
做题思路:错误推断,原文是People who don’t have the extra money or who don’t care about pollution will not buy the more expensive cars.
28. According to the writer, anti-pollution standards ensure that ______.正确答案:D。
审题思路:根据问题关键词anti-pollution standards ensure,及问题顺序原则,该问题可以定位到文章最后一句The government must force manufacturers to help clean up the environment by setting anti-pollution standards for everyone.
做题思路:错误推断
做题思路:错误推断
做题思路:无中生有
做题思路:从原句中的must force, help clean up完全可以对应选项中的have to, control pollution 及本文中心可以推断出该选项为正确选项。
29. The purpose of this passage is ________.正确答案:C。
审题思路:本题为典型的大意题,解题时可以根据文章中心思想,文章关键词及前面几道小题的问题及答案来共同推断。从文章中的第一、三段的首句,第三段的末句都提及了政府需要采取措施,也只有政府才能做到,由此可以看出政府在控制污染方面作用巨大。
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
做题思路:紧扣中心,含有文章关键词 government, preventing pollution等等
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
30. What can be inferred from this passage? 正确答案:C。
审题思路:由问题中的infer(推断)可以推断,本题为大意题。解题时可以根据文章中心思想,文章关键词及前面几道小题的问题及答案来共同推断。
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
做题思路:紧扣中心,含有文章关键词 government, preventing pollution等等,有时尽管无法推断出该选项的准确意思,但仍可按照是否含有文章关键词来进行选择。
做题思路:未提及政府作用,与中心无关
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:
31. The European Community has formed _______.正确答案:B。
审题思路:本题的关键词是EC, form, 初步可定位在第二段那句话.
做题思路:错误推理,本题难度系数很高,在文章的第一、二两段虽然分别提到了single market及mass production,但是纵观两段却没有提出单一市场产生大规模生产这一论断。
做题思路:根据high quality goods可以定位到第二段最后一句,本选项属于该句的同意解释。
做题思路:本选项中虽然含有a large market, 但是其整个意思却未在第一二自然段中出现,故排除。
做题思路:张冠李戴,本选项分别从文章中出不同的句子中抽出几个单词,随意组合成一句话,这种情况下,在专升本英语中一般可直接排除,不必去费时论证。
32. We can infer from the passage that the Community’s general policy _______.正确答案:C。
审题思路:本题的关键词是policy,可初步定位到第三段第一句The European commission’s competition policy serves to ensure that the common interest prevails over individual business interests.
做题思路:从small firms和flexibly可以定位到At the same time, it is flexible enough to allow co-operation between small firms.但是原文中说的是政策很灵活,允许小公司间的合作,而不是帮助他们做生意,做题时确实要小心。
做题思路:从small firms同样可以定位到A选项中的那句话,因此可以推断该选项是错误的。
做题思路:问题加上该选项就是第三段第一句话的同意解释,其难度是在对于prevail over的理解。
做题思路:
33. One of the main changes in the market in Europe is that _______.正确答案:B。
审题思路:本题的定位关键词是changes in the market,可以定位到文章第四段第一句后半句measures designed to ensure that they are no longer taxed twice for doing so,本句中的no longer(不再)就是一个改变,属问题关键词的同意替换。
做题思路:无中生有
做题思路:问题加上该选项就是第四段第一句后半句的同意解释。
做题思路:根据Europe-wide business operations可以定位到第四段的最后一句The days when taxes are an obstacle to Europe-wide business operations will soon be gone。原文谈的是多次征税这一障碍会消失,而不是说泛欧业务会消失。
做题思路:无中生有
34. The European Community has adopted some special measures to ______.正确答案:A。
审题原则:本题的定位关键词是special measures和一个特别重要的单词 to(问目的)。另外该题的答案出处应该在33小题答案出处之后,由此可定位到第五段的These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products……句. 在该句话中只是讲了这些措施的结果,而不是实施这些措施的目的。由these measures可以推出它们实际指代的是上文的specific strategies。那么其后面的一句The objective is to carry out long-tern plans to develop industries。。。。自然就成了正确答案的出处。本题要求考生的逻辑推理能力很强。
做题思路:问题加上该选项就是The objective is to carry out long-tern plans to develop industries。。。。的同意解释。
做题思路:无中生有
做题思路:无中生有
做题思路:根据new technology 和manufacturing 可以定位到倒数第二段的These measures, at national and community level, will influence the quality of products, the technology used to manufacture them在本句话中说的使这些措施会影响到制造产品的科技而不是使科技用于制造业。
35. Which of the following is most likely to be the title of the passage? 正确答案:A。
审题思路:大意题,做题时需考虑到(一).文章关键词和中心大意(二).文中不同点所论述的篇幅(三).前几道小题
做题思路:从文章第一句话、31、32、33、34题中可以推出本选项。
做题思路:本文提到了欧洲产业,但是却没有着重论述其发展。
做题思路:本文提到了欧盟,但是却没有着重论述。
做题思路:做题思路:本文提到了欧盟政策,但是却没有着重论述,反而是借其来探讨欧盟政策的好处。
