Test1
Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A,B,C and D. You should choose the one that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding[ˌkɔriˈspɔndiŋ]相应的 letter字母 on the Answer Sheet with a single ling through the center.
What is your favorite color? Do you like yellow, orange, and red? If you do, you must be an optimist[ˈɒptɪmɪst]乐天派 , a leader, and an active person who enjoys life, people and excitement[ikˈsaitmənt]激动. Do you prefer更喜欢 grays and blues? Then you are probably quiet, shy and you would rather follow than lead. You tend倾向 to be a pessimist['pesimist]悲观主义者. At least, this in what psychologists[saiˈkɔlədʒist]心理学家 tell us. They tell us among other facts, that we do not choose our favorite color as we grow up — we are born with our preference[ˈprefərəns]偏爱. 你最喜欢什么颜色？你喜欢黄色、橙色和红色吗？如果你喜欢，你一定是个乐天派、领导者和积极享受生活者，人民和令人感到兴奋的人。你更喜欢灰色和蓝色吗？那么，你很可能缄默，害羞,你宁愿被别人领导，你往往是一个悲观主义者。至少，这个心理学家告诉我们，他们告诉我们其中的事实，我们不能选择我们喜欢的颜色，因为我们长大了-我们天生的偏爱。
Color do influence our moods心情 — there is no doubt[daut]疑问 about it. A yellow room makes most people feel more cheerful[ˈtʃiəful]欢乐的 and more relaxed than a dark green one; and a red dress brings warmth[wɔ:mθ]温暖 and cheer[tʃiə]愉快 to the saddest悲伤的 winter day. On the other hand, black is depressing . A black bridge over the Thames River, near London, used to be the scene[si:n]地点 of more suicides[ˈsu:isaid]自杀 than any other bridge in the area —
until it was repainted green. The number of suicideˈsu:isaid,自杀 attempts immediately[iˈmi:diətli]立即 fell sharply; perhaps it would have fallen even more if the bridge had been done in pink or baby blue.
颜色影响我们的情绪，—毫无疑问。一个黄色的房间使大多数人觉得更快乐，比深绿色的更轻松；而红色的裙子在最悲哀的冬日也能给人带来温暖和振奋。另一方面，黑色是沮丧的。伦敦附近，在泰晤士河上的黑桥，自杀事件比在该地区其他桥更多—直到它被刷成绿色。试图让自杀数量急剧下降，如果桥被刷成粉或或者淡蓝色也许甚至更多自杀将会下降
Light and bright colors make people not only happier but also more active. It is an established fact that factory workers work better, harder, and have fewer accidents when their machines are painted orange rather than black or gray.
浅色或艳丽的色彩不仅使人更加愉快也更积极向上。这是一个确定的事实,工厂工人更好的工作,努力。当他们的机器被刷成橙色事故更少，而不是黑色或灰色。

Test2
The joy of laughing at a funny story is universal[ˌju:niˈvə:səl]普遍的, probably as old as language itself . But , what is it that makes a story or a joke funny?
快乐的笑有趣的故事是普遍的,可能是因为古老的语言本身。但是，是什么让一个故事产生有趣的笑话呢？
As one who had enjoyed humor[ˈhju:mə]幽默 since I first recognized[ˈrekəgnaiz]确认 it, I’ve made an attempt to explain and discuss humor with students in such diverse cultures as Latin America and China. I’ve done some serious thinking about funny stories. It has been a labor of love!
作为一个曾经喜欢幽默的人,因为我首先认可它。我企图在拉丁美州和中国与学生在这种不同的多元文化下来解释和讨论幽默，我做了一些重要的认为有趣的故事。热爱劳动。
Why is it that several students in a class will fall out of their chairs laughing after I tell a joke
while the rest of the students look as if I’ve just read the weather report? Obviously[ˈɔbviəsli]显然 some people are more sensitive to humor than others. And, we recognized[ˈrekəgnaiz]认识 that some people tell jokes very well while others struggle to say something funny. We’ve all heard people say, “I like jokes, but I can’t tell one well, and I can never remember them.” Some people have a better sense of humor than others just as some people have more musical talent, mathematical talent etc. than others. A truly funny person has a joke for every occasion . A humorless person is not likely to be the most popular person in a group. It is reasonable[ˈrizənəbəl]合理的 to say that the truly humorous[ˈhju:mərəs]幽默的 individual[ˌindiˈvidʒuəl]个人的 is not only well liked, but is often the focus[ˈfəukəs]焦点 of attention in any gathering [ˈgæðəriŋ]聚集.
为什么有的人笑得前仰后合，有的人和听天气预报一样。很明显，人们的幽默感受不一样，我们可以发现，有的人能很好的讲滑稽故事，另一些则勉为其难。一些人的幽默感好于其他人，如同有的人的音乐、数学天赋好于他人一样。比其他人，一个真正有趣的人每一个场合都有笑话。一个缺少幽默感的人在一个组不可能是最受欢迎的人。合理地说,真正的幽默的个人不仅是喜欢,但往往是人们关注的聚会的焦点。
Humor is alive and well, and it will persist simply because there are funny things happening every day. Some humorous people see and hear these funny things and are able to make them into funny entertaining jokes and stories.
幽默的活着很好，并将持续下去,因为每天都有有趣的事情发生。一些幽默的人看到和听到这些有趣的东西，并能够使它们成为滑稽有趣的笑话和故事。

Test 3
How many different kinds of emotions[iˈməuʃən]情感 do you feel? You may be surprised to find that it is very hard to specify[ˈspesifai]详细说明 all of them. Not only are emotional feelings hard to describe in words, they are difficult to list. As a result, two people rarely agree on all of them. However, there are a number of basic emotions that most people experience.
你感觉有多少不同种类的情绪?你可能会惊讶地发现,很难详细指明他们所有人。不仅是情感很难用语言描述,他们很难列举。因此，他们所有人很少和两个人达成一致。然而，有许多情绪基本是大多数人的经验。
When we receive[riˈsi:v]收到 something that we want, or something happens that we like, we
usually feel joyful and happy. Joy is a positive and powerful emotion. It occurs[əˈkə:]发生 when we reach a desired[dɪ'zaɪəd]渴望 goal or obtain a desired object.
当我们得到我们想要的东西,或发生了我们喜欢的事情，我们通常感到喜悦和快乐。快乐是一种积极而强大的情感。它发生在我们达成预期的目标或获取所需的对象。
Since people often desire different goals and objects, it is understandable that one person may find joy in repairing an automobile, while another may find joy in solving a math problem. Of course we often share[ʃeə]分享 common goals or interests, and therefore we can experience joy together. This may be in sports, in the arts, in learning, in raising a family, or in just being together.
因为人们常常渴望不同的目标和对象,这是可以理解的,一个人可能会发现修理汽车是快乐的,而另一个可能会发现在解决一个数学问题是快乐的。当然我们经常分享共同的目标或兴趣,因此我们可以一起体验快乐。这可能是在体育、艺术、在学习、在养一个家庭,或只是在一起。
When we have difficulty in obtaining desired objects or reaching desired goals we experience negative emotions such as anger and grief[gri:f]悲伤. When little things get in our way, we experience minor frustrations[frʌsˈtreiʃən]挫折 or tensions[ˈtenʃən]状态. For example, if you are dressing to go out on a date, you may feel frustrated when a zipper breaks or a button falls off. The more difficulty you have in reaching a goal, the more frustrated you may feel and the more angry you may become.
当我们在获得所需的对象或达到期望的目标有困难，我们经历消极情绪如愤怒和悲伤。当小事情防碍我们,我们经历小挫折或紧张。例如，如果你打扮出门约会，当拉链或纽扣掉了，你可能会感到沮丧。在达到一个目标困难越多时,你可能会越沮丧觉得更生气。

Test 4
Deaths[deθ]死亡数 from cigarettes are likely to triple over the next quarter century around the world, scientists warn in a new global[ˈgləubəl]全球的 survey[ˈsə:vei]调查. The survey covers 45 countries, 15 more than the previous study. The additional nations are from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet[ˈsəuviit]苏联 Union[ˈju:niən]联盟.
在未来世纪全球四分之一死于香烟的可能会增加三倍,科学家警告新的全球调查。这项调查涵盖了45个
国家,比先前研究的15个更多。额外的国家来自东欧和前苏联。
Sixty million deaths have been caused by smoking since the 1950s, the investigators estimate. They predict smoking will kill about 10 million people a year by 2020, the vast majority in developing countries where the habit continues to attract young women.
自1950年代以来，六千万人死亡是由吸烟引起的,研究人员估计。他们预测吸烟会杀死每年约1000万人,到2020年,绝大多数发展中国家,这个习惯继续吸引年轻女性。
Investigators[inˈvestigeitə]调查 were unable to acquire smoking statistics from every country, which would allow the most precise estimates. Instead , they compared data on lung-cancer death rate among American non-smokers to the lung-cancer death rate in each country to get an estimate of the number of smokers in a nation.
调查人员无法获得来自各个国家的统计数据,吸烟可以让最精确的估计。相反,他们将美国不吸烟的人当中的肺癌死亡率数据与每个国家的肺癌死亡率相比较,估计一个国家的吸烟人数。
The researchers said they used lung-cancer rates as the yardstick because in developed countries, lung cancer is closely related to smoking and so seldom caused by any other factor among non-smokers.
研究人员说他们用肺癌率作为标准,因为在发达国家,肺癌与吸烟密切相关,所以很少由吸烟者中任何其他因素引起的。
According to the report, 10 percent of middle-aged British men will die from smoking by the time they are 35 to 69 years old. In Poland, 20 percent of men are doomed to die from smoking, the researchers predict.
根据这份报告,10%的英国中年男性会死于吸烟，那时候他们是35到69岁。在波兰,20%的男人注定会死于吸烟,研究人员预测。

Test 5
There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method[ˈmeθəd]方法 of answering theoretical[ˌθiəˈretikəl]理论 questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with the facts and relationships[riˈleiʃənʃip]关系 between
observable[əb'zɜːvəbl]可观察到的 phenomena[fə'nɒmɪnə]现象 in nature and with establishing[iˈstæbliʃ]建立 theories; technology has to do with tools, techniques, and procedures for putting the finding of science into practice.
科学和技术是有区别的。科学是回答理论问题的一种方法;技术是解决实际问题的一种方法。科学与事实和可观察到的各种现象之间的关系的性质和建立理论;技术必须与工具,方法和程序将科学发现的付诸实践。
Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progress in each. Progress in science excludes[ikˈsklu:d]排除 the human factor. Scientists cannot pay attention to their own or other people’s likes or dislikes or to popular ideas. What scientists discover may shock or anger people — as did Darwin’s theory of evolution[ˌi:vəˈlu:ʃən]进化论. But even an unpleasant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides ，we have the choice of refusing to believe it ! But it’s hardly so with technology and we do not have the choice of refusing to hear the sonic boom繁荣 produced by a supersonic aircraft flying overhead; we do not have the choice of refusing to breathe polluted air; and we do not have the choice of living in a non-atomic age. Unlike science progress, technology must be measured in terms of the human factor. The purpose of technology is to serve people in general , not merely some people; and future generations, not merely those who presently wish to gain advantage for themselves.
科学和技术的另一个区别在于各自的发展进程。科学的发展排除了人为因素。科学家不能注意自己的或别人的喜欢或不喜欢流行的想法。科学家发现可能使人震惊或愤怒——达尔文的进化论一样。但即使是一个令人不快的事实是超过可能有用;此外,我们拒绝选择相信!但是很难用技术和我们没有选择拒绝听到超音速飞机产生的音爆;我们没有选择拒绝呼吸污染了的空气,和我们没有生活在一个非原子时代的选择。与科学的进步,技术必须以人的因素。技术的目的是服务人民,不仅如此

Test 6
The Eskimos[ˈeskiməu]爱斯基摩人 believe that a human being is made up of a body, a soul, and a name, and is not complete unless it has all three. This belief has a great effect on the Eskimo’s daily life and runs like a golden thread through the Eskimo culture.
爱斯基摩人相信人类是由一个身体,一个灵魂,一个名字构成,并不完整,除非它有所有三个。这个信念在爱斯基摩人的日常生活影响很大,像一根金线在爱斯基摩人的文化。
As for the soul of man, the Eskimos do not claim to know exactly what it is. They see is, They
see it, however , as the beginning of life, and the energy without which life cannot continue.
至于人的灵魂,爱斯基摩人声称不知道它到底是什么。然而，他们看到的是,他们看到它开始生活的能量,没有它生活不能继续。
An Eskimo’s name is believed to have a life of its own. It combines[kəmˈbain]结合 all the good qualities and talents of all the persons who have been called by it. Many Eskimos believe that a newborn baby cries because it wants its name and will not be complete until it gets it.
一个爱斯基摩人的名字被认为有它自己的生命。它被称为结合了所有的优秀品质和才能的人。许多爱斯基摩人认为新生儿的哭声是因为它希望有它的名字,才能完成它。
A Polar Eskimo would never mention[ˈmenʃən]提及 himself by his name . Doing so could break the name’s magic ˈmædʒik]魔力protection. And since the jealous[ˈdʒeləs]妒忌的 spirits are always listening, it could cause great trouble.
极地爱斯基摩人永远不会提到他自己的名字。这样做可以打破这个名字的魔法保护。由于嫉妒情绪总是倾听,就会引起大麻烦。
The Eskimo people also believe in the magic protective power of amulets[ˈæmjulit]护身符. However, it isn’t the amulet itself that prevents from harm — it is the properties that the amulet possesses. It is almost always the boys and the men who are given amulets, for they are the ones who are exposed themselves to all the dangers of nature while the women stay at home. When a girl is given amulets, it is usually to reassure that she has strong souls.
爱斯基摩人也相信魔法防护护身符的力量。然而,它不是护身符本身,防止伤害——这是护身符拥有的属性。它几乎总是男孩和男人有护身符,他们是暴露给所有大自然的危险而女人呆在家里。当一个女孩护身符,它通常是安抚,她有很强的灵魂。

Test 7
Our minds may wander['wɒndə]徘徊 during boring tasks because daydreaming做白日梦 is actually the brain’s normal state, rather than a pointless distraction, according to a study.
我们的思想可能徘徊在无聊的任务,因为白日梦实际上是大脑的正常状态,而不是一个毫无意义的分心,根据一项研究。
The researchers, reporting their findings today in the U. S. journal[ˈdʒə:nəl]杂志, Science, found that daydreaming could be the result of the brain thinking over important — but not immediately relevant — issues when the external environment[inˈvaiərənmənt]自然环境 ceases to pose interesting and engaging[inˈgeidʒiŋ]吸引人的 problems.
今天研究人员报告他们的研究结果在美国杂志,科学发现,白日梦可能是大脑思维的结果重要——但没有立即相关问题时,外部环境不再构成有趣和吸引人的问题。
“For the most part psychologists have assumed that we spend most of our time engaged in goal-directed thought and that, every so often, we have blips(光点）of irrelevant thoughts that pop up on the radar,” said Malia Mason of Harvard University. “However, it could very well be the case that most of the time we are engaged in less directed, unintended thought and that this state is routinely interrupted by periods of goal-directed thought.”
“大部分心理学家认为,我们大部分时间都在从事有目的的思想,经常会有这样的现象,我们有杂音(光点)出现在雷达的无关的想法,”哈佛大学的玛利亚梅森说。“然而,很可能的情况是,大多数时候我们从事导演,意想不到的想法,这种状态是经常打断了目标导向思想的时期。”
Daydreaming or mind-wandering is more precisely defined as a state of mind where thoughts are unrelated to what is going on in the environment around them, according to Mason. When wandering, the brain flits from one thought to the next, generating images, voices, thoughts and feelings.
做白日梦或走神是更精确地定义为一种心态,思想是无关在周围的环境中,根据梅森。当游荡时,大脑辗转于一个又一个的认为接下来,生成图像,声音,思想和感情。
When deciding how best to encourage daydreaming in order to study it, the researchers
recognized that our minds often wander while we are engaged in familiar tasks, such as making a sandwich, because we don’t need to concentrate on it. They trained study subjects to become proficient on certain tasks so that their minds would be able to wander when they performed them, but would have to concentrate when given something new.
在决定如何最好地鼓励白日梦为了研究,研究人员认识到,我们的思想常常徘徊在我们从事熟悉的任务,如做一个三明治,因为我们不需要专注于它。他们训练的研究对象成为精通某些任务,所以他们的思想能够漫步时执行,但必须集中在一些新的东西。

Test 8
To be a good teacher, you need some of the gifts of a good actor: you must be able to hold the attention and interest of your audience; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under your control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear .
要成为一个好老师,你需要一些好演员的天赋:你必须能够控制听众的注意力和兴趣;你必须是一个清楚的演讲者,着实不错,强大,令人愉悦的声音,它是在你的控制之下;,你必须能够你教学,来明确它的意义。
Watch a good teacher and you will see that he does not sit motionless before his class: he stands the whole time he is teaching; he walks about, using his arms, hands and fingers to help him in his explanations , and his face to express feelings. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the loudness, the quality and the musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about.
看一个好老师,你会发现之前,他不坐不动类:他站在整个时间教学;他走,用他的胳膊,手和手指帮他解释,表达感情,他的脸。听他的话,你就会听到响度,响度,他的声音的质量和音符总是改变根据他在谈论什么。
The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn’t mean that he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher’s work and the actor’s. The actor has to speak words that he has learnt by heart ；he has to repeat exactly the same words each time he plays a certain part, even his movements and the ways in which he uses his voice are usually fixed beforehand. What he has to do is to make all these carefully learnt words and actions seem natural on the stage .
事实上,一个好老师有一些礼物的好演员并不意味着他确实能够在舞台上,有非常重要的差异和演员的老
师的工作。演员说单词,他铭记在心,他每次都重复相同的单词他扮演一个特定部分,甚至他的动作和他使用他的声音的方式通常是事先固定。他所要做的就是让这些认真学习语言和行为似乎自然在舞台上。
A good teacher words in quite a different way. His audience takes an active part in his play: they ask and answer questions, they obey orders, and if they don’t understand something, they say so. The teacher therefore has to suit his act to the needs of his audience, which is his class. He cannot learn his part by heart, but must invent it as he goes along.
一个好老师的话以相当不同的方式。听众需要积极参与他的游戏:他们问和回答问题,他们服从命令,如果他们不理解的东西,他们这样说。老师因此适合他的听众的需要,这是他的类。他无法了解自己的心,但必须发明他一边走。
I have known many teachers who were fine actors in class but were unable to take part in a stage play because their brains wouldn’t keep discipline: they could not keep strictly to what another had written.
我认识许多在课堂上教师是好演员但无法参加一个话剧,因为他们的大脑不会保持纪律:他们不能保持严格的另一个写了什么。

Test 9
I don’t often lose things and I’m especially careful with money, so I was quite surprised when I reached for my wallet and it wasn’t there. At first, I thought it was possible that I could have left it at home. Then I remembered taking it out to pay for the taxi, so I knew I had it with me just before I walked into the restaurant. I wondered if it was possible that it could have slipped out of my pocket while I was eating dinner. Thinking about that possibility, I turned and walked back to the table where I had been sitting. Unfortunately, there were several people sitting at the table at the time, so I called a waiter and explained to him that my wallet had fallen out of my pocket while I was sitting at the table a few minutes earlier. Then the manager of the restaurant came up to me and asked me if anything was wrong. I didn’t want to get a lot of people involved in the problem, but I knew I had to get the wallet back. I told the manager what had happened. He had me describe the wallet to him, and then he insisted that I report the missing wallet to the police. I told him that I didn’t particularly want to get the police involved in it; besides, I was in a hurry. I explained to him that my biggest worry at the moment was how I was going to pay the check. He told me not to worry about that. He had me write down my name and address, and he said he would send me a bill.
我不经常丢了东西,我特别小心钱,所以我很惊讶当我到达我的钱包,它不在那里。起初,我认为这是可能的,我可能把它忘在家里了。然后我记得支付出租车,所以我知道我以前和我只是我走进了餐厅。我想知道如果它是可能的,它可能从口袋里掉出来了,而我正在吃晚饭。考虑这种可能性,我转身走回桌子上我一直坐的地方。不幸的是,有几个人坐在桌子上,所以我打电话给服务员,向他解释说我的钱包的口袋里,而我坐在桌子上几分钟前。然后餐厅的经理向我走过来,问我如果有什么是错误的。我不想让很多人参与进来

Surprisingly[səˈpraiziŋli]惊奇地, no one knows how many children receive[riˈsi:v]接受 education in English hospitals, still less the content[ˈkɔntent]内容 or quality[ˈkwɔliti]质量 of that education. Proper[ˈprɔpə]适当的 records[ˈrekɔ:d]记录 are just not kept. We know that more than 850,000 children go through hospital each year, and that every child of school age has a legal[ˈli:gəl]合法的 right to continue to receive education while in hospital . We also know there is only one hospital teacher to every 1,000 children in hospital.
出人意料的是，没有人知道有多少孩子在英国医院接受教育，然而教育的内容或质量更少。只是没有适当的记录。我们知道，每年超过850000儿童和学龄的儿童去医院，每个学龄的孩子都有合法权利继续接受教育，我们也知道每1000个孩子在医院只有一个医院老师
Little wonder[ˈwʌndə]惊奇 the latest survey[ˈsə:vei]调查 concludes that the extent[ikˈstent]程度 and type of hospital teaching available[əˈveiləbəl]有效的 differ a great deal across the country. It is found that half the hospitals in England which admit children have no teacher. A further quarter has only a part-time teacher. The special children’s hospitals in major cities do best; general hospitals in the country and holiday areas are worst off. From this survey, one can estimate that fewer than one in five children have some contact with a hospital teacher — and that contact may be as little as two hours a day. Most children interviewed were surprised to find a teacher in hospital at all. They had not been prepared for it by parents or their own school. If there was a teacher they were much more likely to read books and do math or number work; without a teacher they would only play games.
难怪最新调配结论是，医院提供教学的程度和类型全国各地大多不同，研究发现在英格兰有一半的医院承认孩子没有老师。更多的四分之一仅一个兼职老师，特殊儿童的医院做得最好的大多数在城市，在全国和度假区综合医院是最差的。 从这次调查中，可以估计，只有不到五个孩子中大约三分之一的孩子和医院的老师有些接触，并且接触的时间仅仅一天两小时。老师在医院接触大多数孩子惊讶地发现，他们没有准备通过父母或者自己的学校。如果有一个老师，他们更多的是适合看书和做数学或数字工作，他们没有一个老师
仅愿意敷衍了事。
Reasons for hospital teaching range[reindʒ]范围 from preventing a child falling behind and maintaining the habit of school to keeping a child occupied[ˈɔkjupaid]占有.
