13、 1(总题数：1，分数：7.50)Much emphasis seems to be placed on what you will do “for a living“. Yet there is a danger of feeling compelled (迫使) to choose an occupation or a career before you“re really ready to do so. In our society there is pressure or encouragement from an early age to identify with some occ
14、upation. Children often hear the question: “What are you going to be when you grow up?“ (Part of the implication of this question is that we“re not grown up until we“ve decided to be something.) Carney and Wells (1987) write that society expects young people to identify their values, choose a vocati
15、on and a lifestyle, and then settle down. The implication is that once young people make the “right decision“, they should be set for life. Yet deciding on a career is not that simple. One of the dangers in focusing on a particular occupation too soon is that students“ interest patterns are often no
16、t sufficiently reliable or stable in high school or, sometimes, even the college years to predict job success and satisfaction. Furthermore, the typical student does not have enough self-knowledge or knowledge of educational offerings and vocational opportunities to make realistic decisions. The pre
17、ssure to make premature (早熟，过早) vocational decisions often results in choosing an occupation in which one does not have the interests and abilities required for success.（分数：7.50）(1).What can best describe the author“s attitude towards the pressure to choose a career?（分数：1.50）A.He has a strong feelin
18、g toward it.B.He does not care much.C.He is critical toward it.D.He is imaginative toward it.(2).What can be implied from the question “What are you going to be when you grow up“?（分数：1.50）A.Only adults are able to decide what they want to be.B.Children never think about their future career.C.Childre
19、n are not able to choose.D.Children are experienced enough to choose.(3).Which of the following is true according to the passage?（分数：1.50）A.People should decide what to do in the future when they are very young.B.It“s difficult for young people to choose a career.C.It“s easy to settle down after mak
20、ing a decision.D.A career is set for life after it has been decided on by people.(4).It is dangerous to decide on an occupation too soon for _.（分数：1.50）A.young people tend to change their interest patternB.young people realize their dreams in many waysC.young people are not capable of making good de
21、cision yetD.premature decisions are what young people tend to make(5).Which of the following is the best title for the passage?（分数：1.50）A.Children are Too CompelledB.When You Grow Up.C.The Dangers of Choosing an Occupation too SoonD.Make the Right Decision十、Task 2(总题数：1，分数：7.50)This practice book is
22、 intended for foreign engineers or students of engineering who have already mastered the elements of English, and who now want to use their knowledge of the language to read books on their own subjects. Readers should understand, however, that the purpose of the book is to teach language, not to tea
23、ch engineering. The language in which scientific and technical facts are expressed is certainly not a different language from that of everyday life, but all the same it presents the foreign student with a number of special problems. The most obvious and the most widely recognized of these problems i
24、s the vocabulary. Much more difficult are the semi-scientific or semi-technical words, which have a whole range of meanings and are frequently used idiomatically (地道). One of the aims of this practice book is to present as many of these words as possible, and as often as possible: words such as work
25、 and paint and load and feed and force. Words like these look harmless, but they can cause a lot of trouble to the student. But more than anything else, I have tried to describe the technical statement, that is, the completed sentence rather than the individual word. Many of the structures illustrat
26、ed in the book are found also in ordinary language though not so commonly. But they are essential to the expression of technical facts and ideas at least for the present.（分数：7.50）(1).The practice book is published for _.（分数：1.50）A.people who come to study the languageB.native students of engineering
27、C.technicians who come to study how to maintain machinesD.foreign engineers or students of engineering(2).The aim of the book is _.（分数：1.50）A.teaching engineeringB.teaching English languageC.providing instruction on some special techniqueD.explaining how to build machines(3).According to the passage
28、, semi-scientific or semi-technical words can not be understood easily for _.（分数：1.50）A.they are used in specialized waysB.people seldom use themC.they have many meaningsD.only students use them everyday(4).The importance of _ is emphasized in the passage.（分数：1.50）A.the technical statementB.language
29、 of everyday useC.reading skillD.scientific facts(5).This passage is most probably taken from _.（分数：1.50）A.an afterward of a bookB.an engineering magazineC.a preface of a bookD.a technician“s guide十一、Task 3(总题数：1，分数：7.50)There are two reasons why demand is related to price. For one thing, if your in
30、come stays the same, you can afford to buy more when the price is low. Secondly, records, for instance, are more attractive when their price is lower than the price of similar products. If records are less expensive than cassettes, you may choose to spend your money on records. In reality, the deman
31、d for a product is not always the same. It changes under different conditions. For example, taste may change. You may decide that you prefer cassettes because records are inconvenient. Consequently, you will buy fewer records at both high and low prices. Demand may also change as a result of changes
32、 in the prices of other products. For instance, the price of records stays the same, but the price of cassettes falls. Therefore, you buy more cassettes and fewer records. Or, income may change. Due to an increase in income, you can afford more records whether the price is high or low. The demand fo
33、r a product has a close relation with 1 . One may choose 2 rather than cassettes because 3 . 4 may change under different circumstances, which affects demand. Regardless of price, 5 is a good way to increase demand.（分数：7.50）十二、Task 4(总题数：1，分数：7.50)A The Position of Places B Geography and Transportat
