四、阅读理解(共 5 题、0 / 25 分)1、On Thursday August 14th, a massive power failure switched off lights and shut down factories across a large area of the north-eastern United States and southern Canada. The outcome affected some of the world's biggest and busiest cities, including New York, Detroit, Cleveland and Toronto, leaving up to 60m people without electricity, equivalent to the entire population of France or Britain.So severe was the disruption (破坏) in New York State that its governor, George Pataki, declared a state of emergency. Confused workers spilled on to the streets, while thousands more were trapped for hours in lifts and hot, crowded subway trains. Lots of stranded (进退两难的) people ended up spending Thursday night on New York's streets. Thieves in Brooklyn in New York, and in Canada's capital, Ottawa, took advantage of the absence of streetlights and burglar alarms, and went on a looting spree (疯狂抢掠). Officials were taken aback by the speed at which the chaos unfolded. President George Bush described the incident as a "massive national problem" and promised a full investigation into what caused it.That is still a matter of some debate. At first, naturally, there were fears of terrorist involvement, but this was quickly ruled out. However, officials were left arguing about what had actually happened. The office of Canada's prime minister, Jean Chretien, said that a severe accident at a nuclear-power plant in Pennsylvania may have been the cause. Earlier, American and Canadian officials had said a fire or perhaps lightning had hit a power plant near Niagara Falls in New York State.1、Which of the following statements is true according to the passage____！A、Many streetlights and burglar alarms were stolen during the blackout.B、Some terrorists were involved in the incident.C、President George Bush demanded a full investigation into the disruption in New York.D、-Officials were not sure what had caused the power failure.2、Several cities were affected by the massive power failure on August 14th except____.A、OttawaB、ClevelandC、Chicago、D、Brooklyn3、It can be inferred from the passage that____.A、France has a population of about 60 million.B、Only some large cities were affected by the power failure.C、Canada's prime minister knew what had caused the power failure.；D、Water was spilt onto the streets by confused workers.4、The power failure on August 14th brought about big chaos except that____.A、thousands of people were trapped in liftsB、many people had to stay on streets for Thursday night.C、stores were robbed by the thieves.》D、a power plant near Niagara Falls was hit by a fire or lightning.5、The word "outage" in Paragraph 1 can be best replaced by____.A、power shortcutB、disruptionC、massive national problem,D、power failure2、In ancient times the most important examinations were spoken, not written. In the schools of ancient Greece and Rome, testing usually consisted of saying poetry aloud or giving speeches. In the European universities of the Middle Ages, students who were working for advanced degrees had to discuss questions in their Field of study with people who had made a special study of thesubject. This custom exists today as part of the process of testing candidates for the doctor's degree. Generally, however, modern examinations are written. The written examination, where all students are tested on the same questions, was probably not known until the nineteenth century. Perhaps it came into existence with the great increase in population and the dev1、The kind of exam where students must select answers is ______.A、personalB、objectiveC、spoken-D、written2、In the Middle Ages students _______.A、took objective testsB、were timed by clocksC、specialized in one subject~D、never wrote exams3、Modern industry must have developed ______.A、before the Middle AgesB、in Greece or RomeC、around the 19th centuryD、machines to take tests-4、It may be concluded that testing ______.A、should test only opinionsB、should always be writtenC、has changed since the Middle AgesD、is given only in factories5、The main idea of paragraph 2 is ______、A、workers now take examinationsB、the population has grownC、there are only written exams todayD、examinations are now written and timed3、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 students; you must be a clear speaker, with a good, strong, pleasing voice which is fully under you control; and you must be able to act what you are teaching, in order to make its meaning clear. Watch a good teacher, and you will see that he does not move 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 explanation, and his face to express his feeling. Listen to him, and you will hear the loudness, the quality and musical note of his voice always changing according to what he is talking about. The fact that a good teacher has some of the gifts of a good actor doesn't mean he will indeed be able to act well on the stage, for there are very important differences between the teacher's word and the actor's. The actor has to speak words which has been learnt by heart, he has1、The main difference between students in class and theatre audience is that ( ).A、students can move around in the classroomB、students must keep silent while theatre audienceC、no memory work is needed for the studentsD、the students must take part in their teachers' plays2、In what way is a teacher''s work different from an actor''s ( )<A、The teacher must learn everything by heart.B、He knows how to control his voice better than an actor.C、he has to deal with unexpected situations.D、He has to use more facial expressions.3、A good teacher ______.|A、knows how to hold the interest of his studentsB、must have a good voiceC、knows how to act on the stageD、stands or sits motionless while teaching4、How can a single postage stamp be worth $16 800 Any mistake made in the printing of a stamp raises its value to stamp collectors. A mistake on one inexpensive postage stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony Mauritius , a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printer – Mauritius was to become the fourth country in the world to issue stamps. Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mau ritius ’ Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations.

In order to communicate thoughts and feelings, there must be a conventional system of signs or symbols that mean the same to the sender and the receiver.The means of communication are too numerous and varied for systematic classification; therefore, the analysis must begin with the means of receiving communication. Reception of communication is achieved by our senses. Sight, hearing, and touching seem to play the most important roles. Smell and taste play very limited roles, for they cannot receive intellectual expression from fully developed systems of sings and symbols.Examples of visual communication are gesture and imitation. Although both frequently accompany speech, there are systems that rely solely on sight, such as those used by deaf, and dumb persons. Another means of communicating visually is by signals of fire, smoke, flags, or flashing light. Feelings may be simply communicated by touch, such as by handshaking or backslapping, although a highly developed system of hand-stroking has enabled blind, deaf, and dumb persons to communicate intelligently. Whistling to someone, applauding in a theater, and other forms of communication by sound rely upon the ear as a receiver. The most fully developed form of auditory communication is, of course, the spoken language.The means of communication mentioned so far have two features in common: they last only a short time, and the persons involved must be relatively close to each other. Therefore, all are restricted in time and space.1、The author specifically mentions that speech is______,A、often used when other means are impossibleB、necessary for normal communicationC、the only highly developed system of communicationD、the most developed form of communication based on hearing2、Reception of communication______ ..A、is more important than sending messagesB、depends on two personsC、involves use of the sensesD、play only limited roles3、Applauding is specifically mentioned as an example of ______.A、communication by sound）B、gesture and imitationC、communication by sending a messageD、communication between the listener and speaker4、According to the passage, means of communication _________A、can develop quickly if there is enough time and spaceB、all have the same featuresC、have some limitations even if they are fully developedD、depend on the persons involved5、Persons who cannot see, hear, or speak are able to communicate through ______.A、gesturingB、handshakingC、smellingD、hand-stroking五、作文题(共 1 题、0 / 15 分)1、Directions: Write a composition entitled Campus Activities.
