1、2022年江苏公共英语考试真题卷（7）本卷共分为1大题50小题，作答时间为180分钟，总分100分，60分及格。一、单项选择题（共50题，每题2分。每题的备选项中，只有一个最符合题意） 1.In England recently three foreign gentlemen approached a bus stop. They studied the information on the sign attached to the concrete post and decided which bus to take. About five minutes later the bus the
2、y wanted came along. They prepared to board it. Suddenly there was a clamor behind them. People rushed onto the bus and tried to push them out of the way. Someone shouted insulting remarks about foreigners. The bus conductor came rushing down the stairs to see what all the trouble was about. The thr
3、ee foreign gentlemen looked puzzled and embarrassed. No one had told them about the British custom of queuing for a bus so that the first person who arrived at a bus stop is the first person to get on the bus. Learning the language of a country isnt enough. If you want to ensure a pleasant visit, fi
4、nd out as much as possible about the manners and customs of your hosts. You will probably be surprised just how different they can be from your own. A visitor to India would do well to remember that people there consider it impolite to use the left hand for passing food at table. The left hand is su
5、pposed to be used for washing yourself. Also in India, you might see a man apparently shaking his head at another and assume that he is disagreeing. But in many parts of India a rotating movement of the head is a gesture that signifies agreement or acceptance. Nodding your head when offered a drink
6、in Bulgaria is likely to leave you thirsty. In that country you shake your head to signify yes pa nod indicates no. Arabs are known for their sumptuous hospitality. At a meal in countries on the Arabian Peninsula, you will find that any drinking vessel is repeatedly refilled as soon as you drain it.
7、 The way to indicate that you have had enough is to take the cup or glass in your hand and give it a little shake from side to side or place your hand over the top. In Europe it is quite usual to cross your lags when sitting talking to someone even at an important meeting. Doing this when meeting an
8、 important person in Thailand, however, could cause offence. It is considered too informal an attitude for such an occasion. Also when in Thailand avoid touching the head of an adult - its just not done.Which of the following is trueAIn Bulgaria, you are likely to be left thirsty if you nod when off
9、ered a drink.BIn Bulgaria, nodding ones head is a sign of agreement or acceptance,CYour Arabic host wont refill your drinking vessel if you dont insist.DIn countries on the Arabian Peninsula you must shake your head to signify yes. 2.Adam Smith, a writer in the 1700s, was the first person to see the
10、 importance of the division of labor and to explain part of its advantages. He gives as an example the process by which pins were made in England. One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, a fifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head.
11、To make the head requires two or three distinct operations. To put it on is a separate operation, to polish the pins is another. And the important business of making pins is, in this manner, divided into about eighteen distinct operations, which in some factories are all performed by different peopl
12、e, though in others the same man will sometimes 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 person. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labor, they certainly could not turn out
13、 any pin, each of them would have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps not even one There 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 in itself responsib
14、le for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding 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.According to the writer, Adam Smiths mistake was in believin
15、g that division of labor _.Ainevitably led to economic developmentBwas an efficient way of organizing workCincreased the production of existing goodsDwas an important development in methods of production 3.Questions 1518 are based on the following dialogue.What will the man buyAThe book with the sig

Text If the sun has enough (26) to warm and light the whole earth, it must have enough power to do other things, (27) . Can we use the suns (28)
26、energy to supply electricity, or at least to perform the function which electricity or other types of power usually perform The answer is (29) . For example, people have for many years been using the (30) heat of the sun to cook by solar (31) which have been built with several incurred (32) reflecti
27、ng the sun and focusing the heat on the cooking element. This (33) can be used like a gas or electric stove; it is more expensive to make but it doesnt need any (34) and so costs (35) to use. Another (36) of using solar energy is in house heating. The (37) of energy we use most is electricity, and e
28、very day more is (38) . But electricity has to be made too, and to make it huge quantities of fuel is required - oil, coal, gas and nowadays even uranium. The question which (39) everyone today is: how long will these fuels (40) Nobody knows it for sure, (41) most experts think it will soon be diffi
29、cult to obtain sufficient electricity from these sources. It is possible that the sun can make a(n) (42) here, too. Solar power has already been used to produce (43) heat. In Southern France a solar furnace has been built, (44) temperatures reach more than 3 000 centigrade. This furnace is not only

After all,40 years ago electronic digital computers didnt exist; today microchips as tiny as a babys fingernail are maki
38、ng all sorts of tasks faster and easier. Surely the future holds still more miracles. Some of the computer experiments now going on inspire exciting visions of the future. For example, scientists are working on devices that can electronically perform some sight and hearing functions, which could mak
39、e life easier for the blind and deaf. Theyre also working on artificial arms and legs that respond to the electric impulses produced by the human brain. Scientists hope that some day a person whos lost an arm could still have near-normal brain control over an artificial arm. Video games, computerize
40、d special effects in movies, and real-life training machines now being used by the US Army are causing some people to predict new educational uses for computers. Computers could some day be used to simulate travel to other planets, to explore the ocean floor, or to look inside an atom. Experiments w
41、ith electronic banking and shopping inspire predictions that these activities will soon be done from home computer terminals. Cars, too, might be equipped with computers to help drivers find their way around (Honda has one in an experimental car) or to communicate with home and office computers. Man
42、y people, including handicapped workers with limited ability to move around, already are working at home using computer terminals. Each terminal is connected to a system at a companys main office. Some futurists say the day may come when few people will have to leave home to go to work - theyll just
43、 turn on a terminal A growing number of factories such as the General Motors Plant in Newark, Delaware, hire computerized robots to perform tasks such as spot welding. Some executives get a gleam in their eyes as they envision the spread of these perfect workers - no coffee breaks, no strikes, and n
44、o vacations or sick days. These modern and potential computer uses are possible because of the silicon microchip. These chips, which have become increasingly complex since their beginning in 1959, contain a network of information pathways. Electronic impulses travel along the paths. The plans for a
45、chip look much like a city street plan and can be as large as a football field. It can take as long as three months to complete a new chip design. Chips are used to store information, too. An entire computer can be put onto one chip - called a microprocessor. As chips become even more complex, easie
46、r to make, and less costly, futurists predict limitless possibilities. A group of Japanese scientists is working on a new generation of computers, which they hope will be able to understand vocal instructions, talk back to their users, and automatically try out alternate solutions to a problem to co
47、me up with the best answer. Some people say that the humans of the future will never be without their companion - computers. Predicting the future can be tricky, of course. In 1948 an IBM study predicted that there would never be enough demand for computers to justify going into the business!Which o
48、f the following is NOT TRUE according to the passageAPeople will one day do shopping at home through a computer terminal.BIn many factories computerized robots have been used because they do not cause trouble and need no breaks.CWith the improvement of the microprocessor, more and more uses of computers will be found in the future.DComputers will one day be used t
