        Part II Reading Comprehension (40 points)

        Directions: There are four 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

        Passage 1

        How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishing they were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiest person is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in useless regrets.

        Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities to make life difficult. If a child has good parents, he is fed, looked after and loved, whatever he may do. It is impossible that he will ever again in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition, life is always presenting new things to the child — things that have lost their interest for older people because they are too well-known. But a child has his pains: he is not so free to do what he wishes to do; he is continually being told not to do things, or being punished for what he has done wrong.

        When the young man starts to earn his own living, he can no longer expect others to pay for his food, his clothes, and his room, but has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playing about in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks the laws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may go to prison. If, however, he works hard, keeps out of trouble and has good health, he can have the great happiness of building up for himself his own position in society.

        21. According to Paragraph 2, the writer thinks that _______.

        A. life for a child is comparatively easy B. a child is always loved whatever he does

        C. if much is given to a child, he must do something in return

        D. only children are interested in life

        22. After a child grows up, he_____.

        A. will have little time playing 　　B. has to be successful in finding a job

        C. can still ask for help in time of trouble　　D. should be able to take care of himself

        23. Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage?

        A. People are often satisfied with their life.　　B. Life is less interesting for old people.

        C. Adults are freer to do what they want to do.　D. Adults should no longer rely on others.

        24. The main idea of the passage is that ______.

        A. life is not enjoyable since each age has some pains

        B. young men can have the greatest happiness if they work hard

        C. childhood is the most enjoyable time in one’s life

        D. one is the happiest if he can make good use of each age in his life

        25. The paragraph following the passage will most probably discuss ______.

        A. examples of successful young men　　B. how to build up one’s position in society

        C. joys and pains of old people　　 D. what to do when one has problems in life

        Passage 2

        Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different from it. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted (曲解) one.

        Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in, or living in a county and getting to know its inhabitants and their language that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be true from the second-hand information gathered from other sources! How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different people from ourselves are not very different after all!

        Differences between peoples do of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, and some people might say that we are rapidly approaching this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman or German is not some different kind of animal from themselves.

        26. Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are _______.

        A. distorted   B. normal   C. similar to each other   D. different from its own

        27. One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will ______.

        A. find out what its people are like  B. argue in favor of this country and the language

        C. know the country and its people better　　D. like its inhabitants and their language

        28. The knowledge one gains by traveling in a foreign county is often _______.

        A. from second-hand information B. gathered from other sources than from its inhabitants

        C. gained from the arguments about the countryD. different from what one had before the travel

        29. Differences between peoples ________.

        A. will gradually disappear because of ease of travel

        B. do exist even though different nationalities behave exactly alike

        C. will always continue to exist and the world will be a dull place

        D. will not exist as one hopes

        30. The underlined word “However” most probably means _________.

        A. somewhat  B. by whatever means    C. anyhow            D. no matter what

        Passage 3

        We arranged that Kissinger would fly to Vietnam for talks early in July and then stop in Pakistan on the way back. There he would develop a stomachache that would require him to stay in bed and not be seen by the press. Then, with President Yahya’s cooperation he would be taken to an airport where a Pakistan plane would fly him over the mountains to China.

        Kissinger’s trip was given the code(密碼) name Polo after Marco Polo, another Western traveler who made history by journeying to China. Everything went without a hitch. His slight illness in Islamabad received only minor attention from reporters covering him. They accepted the story that he would be confined to bed for at least a couple of days and began making arrangements for their own entertainment.

        Because of the need for complete secrecy and the lack of any direct communication facilities between Beijing and Washington, I knew that we would have no word from Kissinger while he was in China. Even after he had returned to Pakistan it would still be important to maintain secrecy. So before Kissinger left, we agreed on a single code word — Eureka － which he would use if his mission were successful.

        On July 11, Al Haig, who knew our code word, phoned me to say that a cable from Kissinger had arrived.

        “What’s the message?” I asked.

        “Eureka,” he replied.

        31. Kissinger stopped in Pakistan because ______.

        A. he happened to have a stomachache　　B. he needed a rest after a long journey

        C. he had a secret mission to perform there　　D. he did not want to be seen by the press

        32. The reporters in Islamabad believed that ______.

        A. Kissinger was not feeling well　　　B. Kissinger had just come back from Vietnam

        C. Kissinger had put off leaving for China　　D. Kissinger was preparing to entertain them

        33. The statement “everything went without a hitch” (Para.2) most probably means that ______.

        A. nothing was easy with the mission　　B. the plans were carried out with great difficulty

        C. things went smoothly　　D. there was no possibility of success

        34. There was no news from Kissinger while he was in Beijing, chiefly because _______.

        A. his trip had to be kept secret　　B. President Yahya did not go with Kissinger

        C. communication between Beijing and Islamabad was difficult

        D. the negotiation(談判) was not successful

        35. The passage implies that Kissinger’s message “Eureka” was sent _______.

        A. when the negotiation started in Beijing　　B. as soon as he arrived in Washington

        C. when he flew to Vietnam on July 11　　D. when the negotiation was completed in Beijing

        Passage 4

        No country in the world has more daily newspapers than the U.S.A. There are almost 2,000 of them, as compared with 180 in Japan, 144 in Argentina and 111 in Britain. The quality of some American papers is extremely high and their views are quoted all over the world. Distinguished dailies like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country. However the Post and the Times are not national newspapers in the sense that The times is in Britain or Le Monde is in France, since each American city has its own daily newspaper. The best of these present detailed accounts of national and international news, but many tend to limit themselves to state or city news.

        Like the press in most other countries, American newspapers range from the “sensational”, which feature crime, sex and rumor, to the serious, which focus on factual news and the analysis of world events. But with few exceptions American newspapers try to entertain as well as give information, for they have to compete with television.

        Just as American newspapers give way to all tastes, so do they also try and apply to readers for all political persuasions. A few newspapers support extremist (過激分子) groups on the far right and on the far left, but most daily newspapers attempt to attract middle-of-the-road Americans who are essentially moderate. Many of these papers print columns by well-known journalists of different political and social views in order to present a balanced picture.

        As in other democratic countries American newspapers can be either responsible or irresponsible, but it is generally accepted that the American press serves its country well and that it has more than once bravely uncovered political scandals (丑聞) or crimes, for instance, the Watergate Affair. The newspapers drew the attention of the public to the fears of the Vietnam War.

        36. There are fewer national newspapers in ______.

        A. Britain than in the U.S.A.   B. France than in Britain             

        C. the U.S.A. than in Britain or France        D. France than in the U.S.A. or Britain

        37. Most American newspapers try to entertain their readers because ______.

        A. they have to keep up a good relation with them

        B. they have to compete with television

        C. they have to write about crime, sex and rumor

        D. they have to give factual news in an interesting way

        38. Many American newspapers attract readers of different political tendency by ______.

        A. supporting extremist groups from time to time

        B. inviting middle-of-the-road Americans to write articles for them

        C. avoiding carrying articles about extremists

        D. printing articles representing different political viewpoints

        39. In this passage the underlined word “press” (Para.2) means ______.

         A. a machine for printing          B. the business of printing           

        C. great force                     D. newspapers

        40. The passage is mainly about ______.

        A. the characteristics of American newspapers　

        B. the development of American newspapers

        C. the functions of American newspapers

        D. the merits and shortcomings of American newspapers

        Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each blanks there are four choices marked A, B, C and D, you should choose one that best fits into the passage. Then mark the answer by blanking the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a pencil.

        If you feel you have a closer relationship with your grandmother on your mother’s side than on you father’s side, it is no surprise to researchers at the universities of Newcastle and Antwerp.   41  on studies in the Netherlands, they claim that maternal grandparents（外祖父母）are likely to make greater efforts to maintain frequent contact    42   their grandchildren than paternal grandparents（祖父母）.

        They   43   that psychological behaviors related to human evolution are involved: women are always sure of their relationship to their sons or daughters,   44   men can never be wholly certain they are their children biological fathers.

        Further more, maternal grandparents are always more certain than paternal grandparents    45    a grandchild is related to them: “Thus maternal grandparents may go the extra mile to visit their grandchildren.”

        The study,   46   by Thomas Pollet and his colleagues, found that for grandparents   47   within 30 km of their grandchildren, more than 30 per cent of maternal grandmothers and 25 per cent of maternal grandfathers had   48   daily or a few times a week. In   49  , this fell to 15 percent for paternal grandparents.

        Mr. Pollet said: “Even in families where there has been divorce, we found   50   differences. Grandparents on your mother’s side make the extra effort.”

        41. A. Based  B. Relied   C. Agreed       D. Taken

        42. A. for        B. to     C. in        D. with

        43. A. demand       B. speculate     C. deny       D. require

        47. A. departing       B. existing       C. living        D. emerging

        48. A. contact      B. contract      C. concern    D. conduct

        49. A. time        B. detail       C. addition    D. contrast

        50. A. unchanging       B. unknown         C. unlikely    D. Unexpected

        Part IV Translate from English to Chinese (20 points)

        Directions: Read the following passage and translate the 5 parts underlined in the following passage from English into Chinese and write them on the Translation Paper.

        Scientists find that hard-working people live longer than average men and women. Career women are healthier than housewives. Evidence shows that the jobless are in poorer health than jobholders. (51) An investigation shows that whenever the unemployment rate increases by 1%, the death rate increases by 2%. All this comes down to one point, work is helpful to health.

        Why is work good for health? It is because work keeps people busy away from loneliness. Researches show that people feel unhappy, worried and lonely when they have nothing to do. Instead, the happiest are those who are busy. (52)Many high achievers who love their careers feel that they are happiest when they are working hard. Work serves as a bridge between man and reality. (53)By work people come into contact with each other. By collective activity they find friendship and warmth. This is helpful to health. The loss of work means the loss of everything. It affects man spiritually and makes him ill.

        (54 )Besides, work gives one a sense of fulfillment and a sense of achievement. Work makes one feel his value and status in society. When a writer finishes his writing or a doctor successfully operates on a patient or a teacher sees his students grow, they are happy beyond words.

        (55)From the above we can come to the conclusion that the more you work the happier and healthier you will be. Let us work hard and study hard and live a happy and healthy life.

2019湖南學士學位英語模擬試題（一）答案

        Part I Vocabulary and Structure

        1. A【句意】據(jù)報道一系列事故發(fā)生在那個十字路口。

        【解析】a series of“一系列”后面接可數(shù)名詞復數(shù)做主語時謂語動詞要求用單數(shù)。B、C、D意思都是“許多，大量”。而a number of后面加可數(shù)名詞的復數(shù)，謂語動詞用復數(shù)；an amount of后面要加不可數(shù)名詞；a lot of后面可加可數(shù)名詞或不可數(shù)名詞。題干中of后面接的是accidents及謂語用has occurred單數(shù)形式，所以選擇A答案。

        2. D【句意】如果某人在美國不走了，那意味著他在那兒永久居住了。

        【解析】固定搭配for good的意思是“永久地”。 permanently“永久地”；to do good“做好事”；temporarily“暫時的”；to rest well“好好休息”。

        3. B【句意】請再多給我們點兒時間，好嗎？

        【解析】let us 引導的祈使句其反意疑問句一般用“will you”; let’s引導的祈使句其反意疑問句一般用“shall we”。

        4. A【句意】不著急，你可以慢慢做那些練習。

        【解析】短語take one’s time doing sth. 表示“不著急，慢慢做某事”。

        5. A【句意】他英語說得如此好，以致于我想當然地認為他是一個美國人。

        【解析】短語take sth. for granted意思是“想當然”。

        6. C【句意】正如需要空氣和水，我們還需要批評和自我批評。

        【解析】even though“即使”；so long as“只要”；just as“正如”；now that“既然”。根據(jù)題意，C正確。

        7. D【句意】孩子們總是對他們見到的一切事情感興趣。

        【解析】短語be curious about“對…好奇”。

        8. A【句意】任何人，富有的或貧窮的，年老的或年輕的，生病的或健康的，都能有最喜愛的嗜好。

        【解析】well用作形容詞時表示“健康的”，所以選擇well與sick相對應，符合題意。

        9. C 【句意】我們希望她能一周至少來兩次教我們。

        【解析】It’s desired + that從句，句型中that后的主語從句要采用虛擬語氣（should）+動詞原形的形式。

        10. A【句意】如果他們來我們這兒，我們就能問他們一些問題了。

        【解析】此句是省略if的條件句，并且是與表示與將來事實相反的虛擬語氣的句子，所以從句要用should的結(jié)構(gòu)。當if條件句中有助動詞should, had 或were時，則可省去if, 而將should, had 或 were置于句首，從而構(gòu)成倒裝虛擬句，意義不變。

        11. D【句意】1990年他得了一場現(xiàn)在還時常遭受其痛苦的重病。

        【解析】whose引導定語從句，whose可以做從句中的定語，which或that只能做主語或賓語。

        12. B【句意】他發(fā)現(xiàn)讓所有人都知道發(fā)生了什么事是必要的。

        【解析】find it necessary + to do結(jié)構(gòu)，it是形式賓語，形容詞necessary是賓語補足語，動詞不定式短語做真正的賓語。

        13. C【句意】當受訪人回答問題時，采訪者應該記錄下來。

        【解析】當句中謂語動詞所表示的動作和現(xiàn)在分詞所表示的動作在時間上一致時，用現(xiàn)在分詞一般式，如果分詞的邏輯主語是動作的承受者，就要用現(xiàn)在分詞的被動式。Being interviewed 是現(xiàn)在分詞的被動語態(tài)作定語，修飾the person，所以選擇C。

        14. A【句意】“17號車贏得了比賽。”“是的，但車手幾乎死于車賽。”

        【解析】短語come close to相當于“almost, nearly”，此短語中的to是介詞，因此后面要接動名詞。而B選項“having been”是動名詞的完成式表示動作發(fā)生在謂語動詞之前，不合題意。

        15. B【句意】大約公元6世紀，當歐洲人能夠閱讀的時候，中國人已經(jīng)發(fā)明紙張了。

        【解析】had invented過去完成時表示動作發(fā)生在過去的過去。跟據(jù)題干，所以選擇B。

        16. B【句意】我有兩個朋友，但是他們?nèi)魏我粋€都不喜歡和我一塊兒去釣魚。

        【解析】neither表示兩者的否定。none是對三者或三者以上的否定；both指兩者都；either指兩個中的任何一個。所以B符合題意。

        17. B【句意】不幸的童年是他有壞脾氣的原因。

        【解析】account for“是……的原因，描述，解釋”；count“計數(shù)”；make for“走向，沖向”；go for“出去進行，去請，適用于”。根據(jù)題意，B正確。

        18. C【句意】沒人懷疑它是真的。

        【解析】doubt在表示否定的句子中通常接that從句表示懷疑，不相信的內(nèi)容，在肯定的句子中接whether/if的從句較多，表示“認為（某事）未必可能”的意思。

        19. C【句意】他的兄弟成為了老師——他所想成為的人。

        【解析】which引導非限制性定語從句；that只能引導限制性定語從句，who引導先行詞是人的定語從句，此題teacher指的是一種職業(yè)，不是具體的人；what引導定語從句時要求既做主句的賓語又同時引導定語從句，所以只有which符合題意。

        20. D【句意】直到我來到中國，才知道她是一個什么樣的國家。

        【解析】Not until放在句首要求句子采用部分倒裝。

        Part II Reading Comprehension

        21. A 【解析】第二段的主題句是第一句：童年是這樣一段時光，不必擔負什么責任，生活也不會很艱難。與它意思一致的選項為A“生活對孩子來說相對容易”。

        22. D【解析】D選項全面概括了孩子長大后所應做的事情是照顧自己，而A、B、C選項只是各說明了某一具體方面。

        23. A【解析】選項A認為人們對自己的生活經(jīng)常感到滿意，但文章第一段談到“每個年齡段都有自己的快樂與痛苦，所以選項A的陳述與原文不一致。

        24. D【解析】文章的主旨在第一段最后一句體現(xiàn)出來：每個年齡段都有自己的快樂與痛苦，最快樂的人就是在每個年齡段該做什么就去做什么的人，是那些不會把時光浪費在無用的悔恨中的人。

        25. C【解析】文章的第一段點明主題：每個年齡段都有自己的快樂與痛苦，最快樂的人就是在每個年齡段該做什么就去做什么的人。第二、三段分別談到了童年和青年時期的快樂與痛苦，按照年齡分段，接下來的段落中將會談到老年階段的快樂與痛苦。

        26. D【解析】據(jù)第一段第一句“每個國家都趨于認定自己的生活方式是正常的，并且褒揚那些和它相似的，而批評與它不同的生活方式。”可知D選項的信息與之相一致。

        27. C【解析】C選項全面概括了第二段的內(nèi)容，符合題意。A選項不夠準確，原文是用“…are really like…”，所給選項中缺少“really”使得意思與原文不符。B、D的信息較片面。

        28. D【解析】從第二段的第二、三句可知親歷國外的風土人情與紙上得來的終究是不一樣的，所以D選項“不同于那些在旅游前獲得的信息”符合題意。

        29. D【解析】從第三段的第二、三句可知人們之間的差異由于旅游變得容易將會逐漸消失，所以D選項符合題意。

        30. D【解析】根據(jù)上下文可得出此處的“however”意思為“無論這種情況會成什么樣”，所以選擇D “No matter what”。
