温馨提示：

本学期希望大家把《大学英语》（2）课文A及其后面的练习认真做一遍。考试内容与这一部分密切相关。需要说明的是：1.少量同学不认真学习教材，只指望考前把与考试相关的资料记下来。因此，本次提供的复习资料只是考试内容的一部分而不是全部；2.以往考试发现部分学生从来不练习英语写作，考试时把试卷上的某一篇课文抄写下来，冒充作文，因此，本次复习资料中提供6篇作文题，试卷中肯定能有其中一篇。凡是抄写阅读文章的一律记0分，只要是自己写的作文，就算语言不很好也肯定给分。特此说明。

Vitamins are a group of substances found in food. The body needs them for life and health. So naturally, many people are concerned with the question: Am I getting enough vitamins, and am I getting the right kind?

Even though very small amounts of each vitamin are enough for the needs of the body, that many people have not enough vitamins has some basis. And this has something to do with their diet — the food they take in. A

B) neither C) no one

person eating a good variety of foods gets all the vitamins now known to be needed with the possible exception of vitamin D. The problem is that there are many people who don’t choose foods wisely, don’t get enough variety, and don’t eat the basic foods they need to get their vitamins. So the answer to this question is: No extra vitamins are needed, if you eat proper food. In fact, many of the vitamins can not be stored in the body, so when extra vitamins are taken in, the body simply gets rid of them. It is even harmful to put too much of certain vitamins into the body. This has been found to be true of vitamin A and D, when large amounts are taken in.

What foods supply what vitamins? Here is a general idea. Vitamin A, for the health of the eyes, skin, teeth, and bones, is found in green vegetables, fruits, eggs, liver and butter. Vitamin B1 which helps the nervous and digestive systems and prevents certain diseases, is found in cereals, pork and liver. Vitamin B2 is found in milk, eggs, green vegetables and meats. Vitamin C, which helps bones and teeth, is found in tomatoes, certain fruits and vegetables. These are only a few of the most important vitamins the body needs.

1) Our body needs ______ for life and health. A) small amounts of each vitamin C) all vitamins except vitamin D

B) extra vitamins

D) large amounts of certain vitamins

2) Vitamin A is needed by____ and can be found in ______. A) bones, pork B) nervous system, milk C) eyes, green vegetables A) the digestive system

D) teeth, meats C) liver

D) skin

B) bones

4) What will be the result if you take more vitamins than you really need? A) They will do great harm to our body. B) We get all the vitamins needed. C) Our body will function more properly. D) Our body simply gets rid of them.

Passage 1

Is it difficult for you to get up in the morning? Do you sometimes oversleep? Are you often late for work or school? Yes? Then Hiroyuki Sugiyama of Japan has a special bed for you. Hiroyuki’s bed will get you up in the morning! Here is how it works:

The bed is connected to an alarm clock. First, the alarm clock rings. You have a few minutes to wake up. Next, a tape recorder in the bed plays soft music or other pleasant sounds. A few minutes later, a second recording plays. The second recording can be loud music or unpleasant sounds. If you don’t get up after the second recording, you’ll be sorry. A mechanical ―foot‖ is in the bed. The mechanical foot kicks you in the head. Then the bed waits a few more minutes. What! You’re still in bed! Slowly, the top of the bed rises higher and higher. The foot of the bed goes lower and lower. Finally, the bed is vertical. You slide off the bed and onto the floor. You are awake and out of bed.

Hiroyuki made his bed because he wanted to win a contest. He works for Honda Motor Company. Once every two years, Honda has a contest—the ―All Honda Idea Contest‖. In 1996 Hiroyuki won a prize for his bed. 21. A The purpose of the passage is ______. A) to introduce a special bed C) to wake somebody up

Passage 2

Thousands of years ago, in the middle of an ocean, miles from the nearest island, an undersea volcano (火山) broke out. The hot liquid rock piled higher and higher and spread wider and wider. In this way, an island rose up in the sea.

As time went on, hot sun and cool rains made the rock split and break into pieces. Sea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.

Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow at first. Only they, in sunlight, could produce food from the minerals of the soil, water and air. While many animals landed on the island, they could find no food. A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch. Insects couldn’t stay until there were plants for them to eat. So plants had to be the pioneer life on this new island. 26. The main point of the passage is ______. A) how an island formed

B) how an volcano broke out

C) how plants were brought to the island D) how plants and animals began to live on an island in the sea 27. According to the passage, ______ made the island rise up in the sea. A) hot liquid rock from the undersea volcano B) sand brought by the wind C) rock from the nearest island D) sea waves 28. The word ―dash‖ (in Para. 2) means ______. A) smash

B) destroy

C) perform

D) rush

29. Why couldn’t animals live on the island before plants? A) Because it was too hot on the bare island. B) Because it rained too much. C) Because there was no water.

D) Because they couldn’t find food.

30. Which order of coming into being on the volcano-produced island is right? A) Hot liquid rock, animals and plants. B) Soil, hot liquid rock and plants. C) Spiders, birds and plants. D) Soil, plants and animals. 26-30 DAADD Passage 3

A major new development in systems of work in Britain is taking place. Flexible working hours, or ―flextime‖, are catching on fast, and this trend is continuing. In 1973, over 500 organizations had adopted the idea, and by 1974, its number had risen to over 200,000.

Flexible working hours were invented in Germany in the late 1960s but reached Britain only in 1972. The system allows workers to start and finish work whenever they want, with only two requirements. These are, firstly, that all workers must be present for certain ―key‖ times in the day and secondly, that all workers must work an agreed total number of hours per week.

The system has proved an almost total success wherever it has been tried. A survey of 700 workers on flexible hours showed three main advantages: a better balance between working and private life, avoidance of the

B) A company worker. C) An inventor. D) A carpenter.

need to travel during rush hours, and the ability to be able to finish a certain task before leaving.

From the employers’ point of view, the system tends to increase productivity, reduce labor turnover and give the workers a greater sense of duty.

31. According to the passage, the ______ invented ―flexible working hours‖. A) Japanese

B) Americans

D) British D) become popular

35. The author ______ ―flextime‖ according to the passage. A) supports B) is against C) criticizes 31-35 CDBAA Passage 4

What will man be like in the future—in 5,000 years from now? We can only make a guess, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.

Let us take an obvious example. Man, even 500 years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. 500 years is a relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller.

Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones. This is likely to bring about a physical change in the head, in particular the forehead, which will grow larger.

Nowadays our eyes are in constant use. In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over a very long period of time it is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger.

On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the same time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.

But what about hair? It will probably disappear from the body altogether in the course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to be bald.

Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at. This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with us. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar to our own. 36. The passage is mainly about ________. A) what future man's life will be B) what future man will look like C) future man's attractive appearance

D) hates

D) future man's thoughts and emotions

37. According to the passage, man in the future will ________. A) continue to grow shorter B) continue to grow taller C) not change in height D) be about three inches taller 38. Why will our forehead grow larger?

A) Because we make use of only about 20% of the brain's capacity. B) Because it's the tendency as time passes.

C) Because man had a very large forehead 500 years ago.

D) Because we use our brains more and more so we shall need a larger forehead. 39. Which of the following is NOT true?

A) In the future, both man and woman are likely to have no hair. B) It is likely that man's eyes will grow stronger in the future. C) Our fingers will grow more sensitive in the future. D) All future men will have to wear glasses.

40. In the last paragraph, the author believes that ________. A) man in the future grows very ugly B) future man has little in common with us

C) future man’s thoughts and emotions are similar to ours D) future man is not a human being 36-40 BBDDC

Passage 3

Many centuries ago, a group of Jews (犹太人) landed in India and immediately went to the king. They told him that they were lost and wanted to settle in his kingdom.

In those days any foreigner was viewed with suspicion (怀疑), so the king was hesitant about letting them in. He sent for one glass of milk and one glass of water. He asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk. Then he poured out some milk and added some water. He asked the leader to taste the milk again and said, ―What is the difference in taste?‖

The leader said, ―The second time the milk tastes terrible.‖ ―That is because of the water added to the milk,‖ said the king. ―The water dilutes the milk and spoils its taste. So too your addition (加入) will spoil the kingdom.‖ The leader of the Jews thought for a moment and asked for another glass of milk. He then added sugar to the milk and asked the king to taste it. ―It tastes sweet,‖ said the king.

The leader of the Jews bowed his head and said, \"Oh, king！That is how we would like to live here：as the small amount of sugar which sweetens the large quantity of milk and not as the water which dilutes the milk.\" Pleased with him the king granted them permission to stay.

31. The leader of the Jews went to the king because for life and health.

A) they wanted to ask directions B) they wanted to drink some milk C) they wanted to live there

D) they wanted to go through the kingdom 32. Why was the king hesitant?

B) Because in those days any foreigner was viewed as a bad guy. C) Because he thought the Jews would rob them of their milk. D) Because Jews were not trusty.

33. The king asked the leader of the Jews to taste the milk added with water just to show that _______.

A) the taste was terrible

B) if the Jews joined them, they would destroy the country C) the taste was different from the pure milk D) the taste was sweet

Passage 4

Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence (真谛) of sport—the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself. He has to think only about winning. He is responsible for the entire nation's hopes, dreams and reputation.

A good example is the football Word Cup. Football is the world's most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina (阿根廷) to someone and the chances are that he'll think of football. In a sense， winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.

Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Argentina, where the finals were played.

So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not! Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others? Not really. But it's nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.

36. The main idea of the passage is .

A) to tell us that football is the most important sport in the world B) to compare Argentina with England C) to explain the role of sport

D) to tell us the fact only children can enjoy themselves in sports games

37. The athlete representing his country only thinks about winning because ________. A) the games are too competitive

B) witty C) foolish D) unbelievable

B) he wants to make a lot of money

C) he wants to enjoy himself

D) he fights for the nation's hopes, dreams and reputation 38. The underlined word \"summit\" in Paragraph 2 means ________. A) highest point

B) mountain top
