1、2002年江苏成人学士学位英语考试真题Part Listening Comprehension(15minutes 15%)(共15题 略)Part II Reading Comprehension:Directions: There are some reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by five questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice
2、 and write down the corresponding letter in the Answer Sheet. I hear many parents complaining that their teen-age children are rebelling, I wish it were so. At your age you ought to be growing away from your parents. You should be learning to stand on your own two feet. But take a good look at the p
3、resent rebellion. It seems that teenagers are all taking the same way of showing that they disagree with their parents.(86)Instead of striking out boldly on their own, most of them are clutching at(attempting to seize) one anothers hands for reassurance. They claim they want to dress as they please.
4、 But they all wear the same clothes. They set off in new directions in music. But somehow they all end up crowded round listening to the same record. Their reason for thinking or acting in thus-and-such a way is that the crowd is doing it. They have come out of their cocoon(蚕茧) into a larger cocoon.
5、 It has become harder and harder for a teen-ager to stand up against the popularity wave and to go his or her own way. Industry firmly carved out a teen-age market. These days every teen-ager can learn from the advertisements what a teen-ager should have and be. And many of todays parents have come
6、to award high marks for the popularity of their children. All this adds up to a great barrier for the teen-ager who wants to find his or her own path. But the barrier is worth climbing over. The path is worth following. You may want to listen to classical music instead of going to a party. You may w
7、ant to collect rocks when everyone else is collecting records. You may have some thoughts that you dont care to share at once with your classmates. Well, go to it. Find yourself. Be yourself. Popularity will come-with the people who respect you for who you are. Thats the only kind of popularity that

During the twentieth century there was an unusual shortening of the time of a womans life spent in caring for children. A woman marrying at the end of the 1
13、9th century would probably have been in her middle twenties, and would be likely to have seven or eight children, of whom four or five lived till they were five years old. By the time the youngest was fifteen, the mother would have been in her early fifties and would expect to live a further twenty
14、years, during which custom, chance and health made it unusual for her to get paid work. Today women marry younger and have fewer children. Usually a womans youngest child will be fifteen when she is forty-five and is likely to take paid work until retirement at sixty. Even while she has the care of
15、children ,her work is lightened by household appliances(家用电器)and convenience foods.(87)This important change in womens way of life has only recently begun to have its full effect on womens economic position. Even a few years ago most girls left school at the first opportunity and most of them took a
16、 full-time job. However, when they married, they usually left work at once and never returned to it. Today the school-leaving age is sixteen, many girls stay at school after that age, and though women tend to marry younger ,more married women stay at work at least until shortly before their first ch
17、ild is born. Many more after wads, return to full or part-time work. Such changes have led to a new relationship in marriage, with both husband and wife accepting a greater share of the duties and satisfaction of family life, and with both husband and wife sharing more equally in providing the money
18、 and running the home, according to the abilities and interest of each of them. 21.According to the passage, it is now quite usual for women to _. A. stay at home after leaving school B. marry men younger than themselves C. start working again later in life D. marry while still at school 22.We are t
19、old that in an average family about 1990_.

Many girls, the passage says, are now likely to _. A. marry so tha
20、t they can get a job B. leave school as soon as they can C. give up their jobs for good after they are married D. continue working until they are going to have a baby24.One reason why the women of today takes a job is that she .

23、cos hairy face. Whats this? he said . The old man tested the knots before answering.Orders , Black Peters changed his mind . Until we can check on you .Martin swore loudly , then asked if he could talk to Black Peter . Branko shook his head .Hes busy. Martin was seized by despair. Now all his plans
24、might fall unless he could gain the confidence of Black Peter. After some thought he stood up and walked to the mouth of the tunnel. Branko followed. The grassy hollows were alive with men busy with their various duties . There must have been a stream somewhere nearby, for a long line of men were ta
25、king their horses to the water ; others were setting up tents and lighting fire .(88) Immediately opposite was another tunnel at the entrance of which stood two guards armed with guns . Behind them Martin made out the giant form of Black Peter . There he is, he said. I must talk to him. Branko tried
26、 to stop him , but he pushed him aside , walked to the mouth of the tunnel and called out: Black Peter! I must talk to you.The leader of the White Eagles was seated on a wooden box, deep in conversation with two rough-looking men .What is it? he said. Why are you checking on me? Martin replied. I ne
27、ed to be sure bout you, said Black Peter. Theres too much to close. He pointed into the tunnel, and Martin saw the wooden boxes that he guessed must contain the gold bars. Is that the treasure. he asked. Black Peter stood up, struggling between his desire for secrecy and an obvious pride in the succ
28、ess of his plans. Yes, he said at last. 26. Martins nights rest . A. was disturbed B. lasted less then six hours C. lasted more than six hours D. was suddenly cut short 27.

They point to jobs such as secretary or truck driver, which often pay more to star
32、t than that of the teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught for several year. Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries.(89) It is by history a profession that h
33、as provided rewards in addition to money the satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, for many, than there are rewards. Unruly (不守秩序的) students, especially in big cities, large classes a
34、nd a lack of support from the public in terms of money and understanding have led many public school teachers to leave the profession.(90)As a result, many of the best students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields. Another reason for this chan
35、ge in teacher candidates (申请求职者) is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s and 1970s, one of the most popular choices for women was teaching. But as other professions, such as law and medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs.
36、Thus, a major pool of excellent candidates for the teaching profession dwindled (减少). 31.Which of the following can give us a true picture of jobs in the United States?A. People in most professions usually get the same pay at the beginning. B. A beginning worker in medicine earns less than one in an
37、y other field. C. A beginning teacher earns as much as a truck driver who has worked for several years. D.

38、always attract best students to work in B. teaching can provide rewards as well as high salaries C. teachers work hard and make a small income compared to workers in many other jobs D. teachers are no longer underpaid 33.Many public school teachers turn to other professions because of _. A. the unru
39、ly students and large classes B. the difficulties of teaching as well as a lack of money, support and understanding C. the attracting power of other jobs D. a lack of satisfaction of sharing knowledge and influencing others 34.Which of the following is not a reason that influences women in their dec
