1、专升本英语（阅读）模拟试卷 100 及答案解析(总分：50.00，做题时间：90 分钟)一、BPart III Rea(总题数：5，分数：50.00)Adam Smith was the first person to see the importance of the division of the labor. He gave us an example of the process by which pins were made in England. “One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it

2、, a fourth points it, and a fifth gives it a head. Just to make the head requires two or three different operations. The work of making pins is divided into about eighteen different operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometime

3、s perform two or three of them. Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4,800 pins a worker. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not have made twenty pins in a day and not even one. There

4、 can be no doubt that division of labor is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this, but he also took it for granted that division of labor is itself responsible for economic growth and development and it accounts for the difference between expanding

5、economies and those that stand still. But division of labor adds nothing new, it only enables people to produce more of what they already have.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to_.（分数：2.00）A.take advantage of the physical laborB.introduce the division of labor

10、of organizing work.When we talk about intelligence we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or even the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving, especially in a new or upsetting situation. If we want to test intelligence, we n

11、eed to find out how a person acts instead of how much he knows what to do. For instance, when in a new situation, an intelligent person thinks about the situation, not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can, and then he acts immediately and tries to do something a

12、bout it. He probably isnt sure how it will all work out, but at least he tries. And, if he cant make things work out right, he doesnt feel ashamed that he failed; he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person, even if he is very young, has a special outlook on life, a special feeli

13、ng about life, and knows how he fits into it. If you look at children, youll see great difference between what we call “bright“ children and“ not-bright“ children. They are actually two different kinds of people, not just the same kind with different amount of intelligence. For example, the bright c

14、hild really wants to find out about life and he tries to get in touch with everything around him. But, the unintelligent child keeps more to himself and his own dream-world; he seems to have a wall between him and life in general.（分数：10.00）(1).According to this passage, intelligence is_.（分数：2.00）A.t

15、he ability to study wellB.the ability to do well in schoolC.the ability to deal with lifeD.the ability to get high scores on some tests(2).In a new situation, an intelligent person_.（分数：2.00）A.knows more about what might happen to himB.is sure of the result he will getC.concentrates on what to do ab

16、out the situationD.cares more about himself(3).If an intelligent person failed, he would_.（分数：2.00）A.try not to feel ashamedB.learn from his experiencesC.try to regret as much as possibleD.make sure what result he would get(4).Bright children and not-bright children_.（分数：2.00）A.are two different typ

17、es of childrenB.are different mainly in their degree of clevernessC.have difference only in their way of thinkingD.have different knowledge about the world(5).The author of this passage will probably continue to talk about_.（分数：2.00）A.how to determine what intelligence isB.how education should be fo

18、undC.how to solve practical problemsD.how an unintelligent person should be taughtHuman needs seem endless. When a hungry man gets a meal, he begins to think about an overcoat; when a manager gets a new sports car, a big house and pleasure boats dance into view. The many needs of mankind might be re

19、garded as making up several levels. When there is money enough to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears. The first and most basic level of needs involves food. Once this level is satisfied, the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of shelter, appears. By the end of World War A ,

20、 these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses. By 1957 or 1958 this third level of needs was fairly well satisfied. Then, in the late 1950s, a fourth level of needs appeared; the “life-enriching“ level

21、. While the other levels involve physical satisfaction, that is, the feeding, comfort, safety, and transportation, this level stresses mental needs for recognition, achievement, and happiness. It includes a variety of goods and services, many of which could be called “luxury“ items. Among then are v

22、acation trips, the best medical and dental care, and recreation. Also included here are fancy goods and the latest styles in clothing. On the fourth level, a lot of money is spent on services, while on the first three levels more is spent on goods. Will consumers raise their sights to a fifth level

23、of needs as their income increases, or will they continue to demand luxuries and personal services on the fourth level? A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, igno

24、rance, crim, and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages, our teeth, and our minds, we now may seek to ensure the health, safety, and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.（分数：10.00）(1).According to the passage, man will begin to think a

25、bout such needs as housing and clothing only when_.（分数：2.00）A.he has saved up enough moneyB.he has grown dissatisfied with his simple shelterC.he has satisfied his hungerD.he has learned to build houses(2).It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War II , most Americans_.（分数：2.00

28、n the first fourC.can be the last and most satisfying levelD.will become attainable before the government takes actionsNewspapers are not nearly as popular today as they were in the past. There are not very many people who seriously read a newspaper every day. Most people read only the sports pages,

29、 the advice or gossip columns, the comics , and perhaps the classified advertisements. Most people dont take the time to read the real news. Newspaper editors say that their readers are lazy. They say they have to trick people into reading the news. They attempt to catch the readers interest with pi

30、ctures and exciting headlines. These techniques are used on the front page because it is the first thing you see when you pick up the paper. The first page attracts attention and encourages the reader to look through the rest of the paper. This is why editors always look for a good first page story

31、and headlines that make you stop and look. If the headline is horrible enough or frightening enough or wild enough, perhaps you will go on to read the rest of the story. Just the same, there are a lot of people who do not even read the front page anymore. They may read the headlines, but that is all

32、. Then they turn to the sports page, or comics, or advertisements. It seems that people do not want the news from a newspaper anymore. They say they get the news on the television now. More people watch television news because it is easier and more interesting than reading a newspaper. What about yo

33、u? Do you read news from a newspaper? Do you watch the news on television? Do you think it easier to get the news from television? Do you listen to the radio?

36、ues, parents who read to their children can greatly increase their childrens language development. It is surprising but true. How parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the childrens language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is re

37、ading, the childs language skills increase. A study was done with 30 three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In the experimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in whi

38、ch they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes-or-no questions. For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?“ rather than “Is the doggie running away?“ The parents in the experimental group were also instructed in how to help children find answers, how to suggest a

39、lternative possibilities and how to praise correct answers. At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ in measures of language development, but at the end of one month, the children in the experimental group showed 5. 5 months ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression

40、 and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the children in the control group.（分数：10.00）(1).Which of the following can be inferred from the passage?（分数：2.00）A.Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.B.Parents who listen to
