Reading Ⅰ

June came and the hay （干草） was almost ready for cutting. On Midsummer's Eve, which was a Saturday, Mr. Jones went into Willington and got so drunk at the Red Lion that he did not come back until midday on Sunday. His men had milked the cows in the early morning and then had gone out chatting without bothering to feed the animals. When Mr. Jones got back, he immediately went to sleep on the living-room sofa with the "News of the World" over his face. When evening came, the animals were still not fed. At last, they could stand no longer. One of the cows broke into the door of the storehouse with her horns and all the animals began to help themselves to the grains.

It was just then that Mr. Jones woke up. The next moment he and his four men were in the storehouse with whips in their hands, whipping in all directions. This was more than the hungry animals would bear. Together, though nothing of the kind had been planned beforehand, they jumped upon their masters. Mr. Jones and his men suddenly found themselves being struck with the horns and kicked from all sides. The situation was quite out Of their control. They had never seen these animals act like this before. This sudden rebellion of the creatures, which they were used

to beating and whipping just as they chose, frightened them. After only a moment or two, they gave up trying to defend themselves. A minute later all five of them were in full fright down the road with the animals running after them joyfully.

Reading Ⅱ

It was sunrise on an August morning when the captain and his crew cast their nets some 50 miles south of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. As the net was pulled over, the contents were poured out followed by excited cries of "Coins! Coins!

" The fishermen quickly realized they had realized a fishermen's dream: sunken treasure! And not just any treasure, but early American silver dollars that had gone down 210 years earlier.

In 1784, at the end of the American Revolutionary War, a heavily armed ship was bund for the port of New Orleans. On board was a fortune in Spanish Silver Dollars. Hundreds of thousands of them were loaded for the trip to New Orleans, yet not a single one arrived. With no survivors from the ill-fated voyage, historians can only guess at what happened. Some say powerful storms took her down while others speculate it was treasure-hungry pirates （海盗） . Whatever happened, the secret -- along with a treasure valued near $100,000,000 in today's dollars -- was sent to a watery grave some 300 feet below the ocean's surface.

Spanish Silver Dollars were the favorite coins of colonial Americans. Widely used and accepted as payment in the thirteen colonies, the United States government gave them the status of official legal tender. Unfortunately, even though they were struck in large quantities, not many of them survive today. After the Civil War, the government withdrew them from circulation and they were melted down.

Due to the historic discovery of the treasure, GovMint.com is releasing these coins to the public for an amazingly low price. For a limited time, these authentic silver dollars are priced at$49 plus shipping and handling -- a dramatic reduction from the market price of this coin anywhere else worldwide.

第40题单选 What surprised the fishermen on an August morning?

A. Their net contained a big strange-looking fish.

B. They found the treasure sunken 210 years ago.

C. They found some pieces of a sunken ship in the net.

D. Their net suddenly got caught by something deep in the water.

第41题单选 What happened to the ship heading for New Orleans in 1784?

A. Loaded with too much cargo, it hit on the rock

B. Robbed by pirates, it lost $100,000,000's worth of good

C. It disappeared but nobody knew exactly what had happene

D. It was caught in a terrible Storm and went down into the ocea

第42题单选 What do we know about "Spanish Silver Dollars"?

A. Today one coin equals to 49 dollars in the world marke

B. They were widely used in America after the Civil Wa

C. Issued in small amounts, not many of them surviv

D. They were officially accepted in the 13 colonie

第43题单选 In which section of a magazine would you probably find this article?

A. Sports

B. Housing

C. History

D. Fashion

Reading Ⅲ

The environment affects the way people interact. To examine this conclusion, two researchers "decorated" three rooms. One room was refurnished to look ugly. The second room was intended to look average. The third room was designed to be beautiful. Individuals were then asked to sit in one of the three rooms and rate several pictures of people's faces. The results indicated that the environment has a significant effect on the way people rated the faces. Subjects in the beautiful room gave the pictures higher rates than did subjects in the ugly room. In addition, subjects in the ugly room found the task more unpleasant and boring than did subjects in the beautiful room. Subjects assigned to the ugly room attempted to leave sooner than did subjects assigned to the beautiful room. Color is one environmental factor that can affect your mood and even your ability to concentrate. One researcher concluded that the most pleasant colors, listed in order of preference, were blue, green, purple, red and yellow. The colors listed from most to least arousing were red, orange, yellow, violet, blue and green.

Lighting also affects behavior. Elegant restaurants with dim lighting create a mood of intimacy （亲密） that encourages conversation. The bright lights of an office or a classroom, on the other hand, arouse and stimulate thinking.

Room decoration, color, lighting, and even music and temperature all influence communication with others; but there is no all-purpose environment. The ideal environment depends on the task that will be performed as well as on the needs and expectations of those present. The same environmental factors that encourage lively conversation and dancing at a New Year's Eve party cannot be expected to create a serene climate in which to study for final exams.

第44题单选 Paragraph 1 shows that subjects in the ugly room tend to be __.

A. less patient

B. less considerate

C. more enthusiastic

D. more confident

第45题单选 Which color is the most helpful for keeping a good mood?

A. Gree

B. Blu

C. Orang

D. Re

第46题单选 What effect can dim lights of an eating environment bring about?

A. Arousing active thinkin

B. Improving work efficienc

C. Creating a tense atmospher

D. Stimulating talks among peopl

第47题单选 The underlined word "serene" in the last sentence is closed in meaning to __

A. serious and grave

B. calm and peaceful

C. pleasant and friendly

D. cold and indifferent

Reading Ⅳ

There is nothing more possible than a new hip or knee that can put the spring back in your step. Patients receiving joint implants （移植） often are able to resume many of the physical activities they love, even those as vigorous as tennis and hiking. No wonder, then, that joint replacement is growing in popularity.

In the United States in 2007, surgeons performed about 806,000 hip and knee implants （the joints most commonly replaced）， double the number of performed a decade earlier. Though these procedures have become routine, they are not failure free.

"Implants must sometimes be replaced," said Dr. Henrik Malchau, an orthopedic surgeon （矫正外科医生） at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. A study published in 2007 found that 7 percent of hips implanted in Medicare patients had to be replaced within seven and a half years.

"The percentage may sound low, but the finding suggests that thousands of hip patients eventually require a second operation," said Dr. Malchau. Those patients must endure additional recoveries, often painful, and increased medical expenses.

The failure rate should be lower, many experts agree. Sweden, for instance, has a failure rate estimated to be a third of that in the United States. Sweden also has a national joint replacement registry, a database of information from which surgeons can learn how and why certain procedures go wrong. A registry also helps surgeons learn quickly whether a specific type of implant is particularly problematic. "Even country that has developed a registry has been able to reduce failure rates significantly," said Dr. Daniel Berry, chief of orthopedic surgery at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn.

A newly formed American Joint Replacement Registry will begin gathering data from hospitals in the next 12 to 18 months. It's good news for those who are considering replacing a knee or hip.

第48题单选 What is the problem with hip or knee replacement in the U.S.?

A. A lot of patients need a second operatio

B. Doctors are not well trained to ensure successful operatio

C. Demands for hip replacement exceed the number of surgeon

D. Replacement operation is becoming too expensive in hospital

第49题单选 Why does Sweden have a lower rate of hip implant failure?

A. Because Sweden has more advanced technolog

B. Because Sweden has a patient data collecting syste

C. Because Sweden has a much larger number of patient

D. Because Swedish doctors are more responsible and skillfu

第50题单选 People who need a new knee or hip would possibly feel __ about data gathering in the U.S.

A. indifferent

B. assured

C. puzzled

D. hopeful

第51题单选 People who need a new knee or hip would possibly feel __ about data gathering in the U.S.

A. indifferent

B. assured

C. puzzled

D. hopeful

Reading Ⅴ

The Saturday Evening Post "became symbolic of the reading fare of middle-class America". In 1897 Curtis began to revive （重振） the Post on the proposition that a man's chief interest in life is the fight for livelihood -- business. Fiction and articles about romantic business and successful businessmen filled its pages, and products backed by its advertisements directed at the needs and desires of the business world. The general interest weekly reached new audiences. Its conservative viewpoint and strong admiration for material success appealed to the tastes of the millions who settled in an easy chair with it each Thursday evening. As a more commercial, mass-circulation magazine than The New Yorker, the widely readable Post set out to interpret America to itself.

As a national and international institution, The Saturday Evening Post made its mark in the lives of massive numbers of men and women, and served society as a stabilizing influence. Its editorial matter addressed the problems and interests of the readers as never before. Neither highbrow nor lowbrow, the Post set out to interpret average middle-class America, for that was its audience. However, this magazine lost touch with the mood of the American people in the 1930s. The Post's editor Lorimer, opposed Roosevelt and the New Deal and changed his magazine from an organ of entertainment and enlightenment into a weapon of political warfare. He believed that in opposing the New Deal he had spoken for the majority of voters, but the 1936 election proved him wrong. His conservatism extended beyond politics, it dominated the magazine's content and style causing a decline in reputation and authority. The Post met its greatest success when it went beyond the tastes of the masses, challenging its readers to acknowledge the genius of contributors such as F. Scott Fitzgerald and William Faulkner. It was later reformed in an effort to fulfill its responsibility to awaken lethargic （昏昏欲睡的）America, however, The Saturday Evening Post seemed to play to conventions while The New Yorker took off to redefine the character of American Humor.

第52题单选 According to Paragraph 1, who are primarily the readers of the Post?

A. Businessmen.

B. College students.

C. Housewives.

D. Politicians.

第53题单选 What is the earliest time that readers can read the Post every week?

A. Monda

B. Thursda

C. Saturda

D. Sunda

第54题单选 Why did the Post lose much of its audience in the 1930s?

A. Because it changed its original Style and was heavily involved in politic

B. Because readers couldn't afford a newspaper because of the Depressio

C. Because the new editor was not interested in Roosevelt's politic

D. Because it failed to absorb sufficient advertisement

第55题单选 What makes the Post so commercially successful?

A. Presenting American style humo

B. Sticking to the tastes of the middle-clas

C. Carrying articles and novels by local writer

D. Staying in close contact with the business worl

2011年安徽成人高考专升本《英语》真题参考答案

1.答案：D 2.答案：C 3.答案：B 4.答案：A 5.答案：D

6.答案：B

解析：there be句型中已含有谓语动词，因此排除可在句中做谓语的live（选项A）和 lived（选项D）。动词+ing表示正在进行，to+动词表示将要进行。这里指活着的熊猫。本句句意是：现今世界上没有多少活着的野生大熊猫了。

7.答案：A

解析：before在……之前；after在……之后；when意为“那时，然后”；as当……时候。 注意原句动词的时态。前句是过去时，后句是过去完成时。说明在前句动作还没有发生时，后句的动作已经发生了。本句句意是：我还没来得及说更多，Holmes已经朝门口冲过去了。

8.答案：D

解析：句中的意思是“让你的观点众所周知”，即观点被人知道。make sth.done使某事 被做。动词的过去分词表示被动。本句句意是：既然你对这件事感觉如此强烈，就应当把你的看法告诉委员会的其他成员。

9.答案：A

解析：一些表示命令、建议、要求等的动词在主句中做谓语时，其宾语从句中的谓语动词应用虚拟语气should do。should可省略，只用动词原型。本句句意是：他们要求政府在两天内释放所有政治犯。

10.答案：D

解析：make across没有这个搭配，make away意为“离去，逃走”；make off意为“离开，逃走”；make up意为“补偿，虚构”。本句句意是：Nelson是一个有创意的骗子，他总能为自己不干活儿编出非同一般的借口。

11.答案：C

解析：从第一句可知事情已经发生，对于已经发生的事情的推测应用情态动词的过去式 +have done，意为“过去本可以做的事却没做”。本句句意是：--昨天晚上我没去上课，因为我的车坏了。--你本可以借我的车，我没用车。

12.答案：C 13.答案：C 14.答案：B 15.答案：D 16.答案：D

17.答案：B

18.答案：B

解析：give one’s attention to意为“注意”；pay attention to意为“留心，关心”：catch one，s attention意为“吸引某人的注意力”；turn one’s attention to意为“把某人的注意 力转向……”。根据后半句：他被某事吸引才有兴趣做某事。本句句意是：有关新能源开发的新闻标题吸引了他的注意，他有意在这方面投资。

19.答案：B

解析：put sb.ofr意为“使分心”；cut sb.off意为“打断某人的话”；keep sb.off意为“不让接近”；get sb.off意为“离开，帮助某人免受处罚”。根据句子结尾：说话中间，可以判断句子的中心意思是说话时被人打断。本句句意是：你让我说完好吗？ 不要打断我的话。

20.答案：C

解析：used to do表示过去常常做某事，现在可能不做了。周末是复数，说明每个周末 都玩儿。“上大学时”表示过去发生的事。本句句意是：--你玩儿过桥牌吗？ --玩儿过。上大学时我们常在周末打桥牌。

21.答案：A

解析：文章主题是人类为什么会脸红。response意为“反应”；reply意为“回复”；reflection意为“反射，倒影”；recall意为“回忆”。根据文章主题，脸红是一种反应。

22.答案：B

解析：forbid意为“禁止”；force意为“迫使”；encourage意为“鼓励”；prevent意为“阻止”。根据原文，脸红会暴露自己在说谎。

23.答案：B

解析：这里引用达尔文所说的话。when和while都表示“当……时候”的意思，但while 有“与……相反”的意思，翻译成“然而，却”。since和because表示原因。根据上下文，这里是说人类与动物不一样，人类会脸红，而动物却不脸红。应选择表示相反的词。

24.答案：C

解析：at a loss是固定词组，表示茫然。这部分是说，达尔文指出人类会脸红而动物不会的时候也是茫然的，说不出其原因。

25.答案：A

解析：suggestion意为“建议”；advice意为“劝告”；solution意为“解决”；question意为“问题”。达尔文解不开的谜，更多的人想试一试。所谓“试（trying）”就是不肯定。

26.答案：D

解析：apparently意为“明显地”；completely意为“完全地”；awkwardly意为“危险地，不舒服地”；increasingly意为“日益地”。根据原文，社会在发展，社会交往肯定也是日益复杂。

27.答案：C

解析：mood意为“情绪、心情”；sense意为“感官”；emotion意为“情感”；temper意为“脾气”。原文列举了如guilt（愧疚）、shame（羞愧）、embarrassment（尴尬）等感觉。这些显然不属于sense（感官）和temper（脾气），排除。mood和emotion的区别在于，mood表示就某种事件或某段时间影响下所产生的心情或情绪，emotion表示主观上的下意识的感觉。原文在分析人类脸红的原因，从人类自身的情感着手。所以，这里应是emotion。

28.答案：D

解析：privileged意为“享有特权的”；embarrassment意为“尴尬”；energetic意为“充 满活力的”；attractive意为“有吸引力的”。根据原文空格后的“or socially desirable（社交上更合适）”判断，attractive（有吸引力的）最恰当：人类的脸红可能使 人更具有吸引力或者说社交上更合适。

29.答案：A

解析：note意为“注意”；provide意为“提供”；assume意为“假设”；hope意为“希望”。根据原文，注意到女性较男性更容易脸红……

30.答案：D

解析：assure意为“确信”；approve意为“批准”；confirm意为“确认”；demonstrate意为“显示，证明”。根据原文，女性的脸红是向男性表示诚实的一种方式。

31.答案：B

解析：这里表示伴随状态，应用with。原文大意是，跟一个面无表情的人去打猎，……

32.答案：C

解析：C say意为“说”；speak意为“发言”；tell意为“告诉”；talk意为“谈话”。根据原文，可直接排除speak和talk。say和tell的区别是，say表示所说的内容，通常陈述说者原话，tell把信息传达给别人。根据原文，你根本不知道他要什么。

33.答案：D

解析：united意为“一致的，统一的”；related意为“有关系的”；contact with意为“ 与……联系/接触”；associate with意为“与……相联系”，根据原文，一旦脸红与尴尬联系在一起，……

34.答案：C

35.答案：A

解析：C、A最后一句话两个空连起来分析，先分析后者。全文试图分析人类脸红的原因。人类脸红也是自我意识情感的反映，诸如内疚、羞愧、尴尬等等。所以，如果有人从不感到羞耻，那我们可能很少会相信这个人。less likely to trust很少会相信。

36.答案：B

解析：这是一个幽默小故事。第一段。文中说乔恩先生在仲夏夜喝醉了酒，直到第二天。

37.答案：D

解析：第一段。牛一整天都没有吃到东西，实在忍受不了了，便冲破了仓库的门。

38.答案：C

解析：第二段。乔恩先生和他的四个工人手拿皮鞭冲入仓库抽打他们的牛。

39.答案：C

解析：第二段。事情一发生，他们立刻人手一根鞭。作者描述他们从没见过这些牛如此大胆地反抗，以及描述他们已经习惯了随意鞭打这些牛。这些都证实了一点，即乔恩和他的工人经常鞭打牛。

40.答案：B

解析：这是有关海底宝藏的故事。第一段。渔民在墨西哥湾打鱼，渔网捞上来的不是鱼，而是沉入海底的宝藏--210年前沉入海底的美国银元。

41.答案：C

解析：第二段。叙述210年前发生的事。1784年，一艘满载的船出发去新奥尔良，船上装有大量的西班牙银元。然而却没有一枚到达目的地，也没有一个人生还。所以，没有人知道究竟发生了什么。有人认为是暴风雨导致它沉没（选项D），有人认为是海盗抢了它（选项B）。两种原因都只是猜测，不是正确选项。选项A本文中没有提及。

42.答案：D

解析：第三段。叙述西班牙银元在美国的历史。西班牙银元曾在美国的13个州广泛使用，并被认定为官方法定货币。选项D是正确的。选项A在第四段提及，与此题无关。选项B与原文相反。文中说内战后政府就把这些货币熔掉了。选项C前半部分与原文相反。文中说曾经的使用量是很大的。

43.答案：C

解析：这篇文章主要从历史的角度叙述了210年前沉入海底的美国银元。所以，应该在杂志的历史栏目里看到这篇文章。

44.答案：A

解析：这是有关环境对人类心理影响的科学实验。第一段的后半截，被请到三个经过布置的房间里的受试者感觉非常不愉快，并且急于离开房间。

45.答案：B

解析：第二段。颜色会影响人们的注意力。从能使人愉悦因而保持注意力的角度，色彩从强到弱排列，第一位的就是蓝色。选项B是正确的。后面又说，最能令人振奋的颜色是红色，所以选项D是错的。

46.答案：D

解析：第三段。灯光会影响人们的情绪。比较暗的灯光会增加人与人之间的亲密感。这也是为什么餐厅会采用比较暗的灯光。选项D是正确的。然而，要提高思考的效果还是明亮的灯光。选项A是错的。

47.答案：B

解析：第四段。总结。根据不同的目的设计不同的环境。为新年晚会设计的场所肯定不适合期末考试的复习。可以想象，期末考试需要的是能够让人安静、平和的场所。

48.答案：A

解析：这是有关美国医学膝盖和髋骨移植的问题。第四段。数以千计的髋骨移植病人需 要做第二次手术，这增加了病人的痛苦和费用。选项A是正确的。选项B和C文中没有提及。选项D是错的，文中并未说手术本身涨价，而是说二次手术使病人多付一次手术的费用。

49.答案：B

50.答案：C

解析：第五、六段。第五段的后半截说，凡是建立了数据库的国家都会降低手术的失败率。第六段说，美国新近成立了一个“关节更替资料室”。选项C是正确的。选项A和D文中没有提及。选项B，在12～18个月内跟踪每一例手术的目的是建立数据库，并不能直接降低失败率。因此，选项B是错的。

51.答案：D

解析：最后一段。因为建立了数据库，所以对正在考虑换膝盖或髋骨的人来说是好消息，是有希望的。indifferent意为“漠不关心的”；assured意为“肯定的”；puzzled意为“困惑的”；hopeful意为“有希望的”。

52.答案：A

55.答案：B

解析：第一、二段。文中说，《邮报》成功时期的内容都是美国中产阶级感兴趣的。
