2019年遼寧省學(xué)位英語模擬真題（閱讀理解)

Part II Reading Comprehension (40%)

Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.

Passage 1

In order to learn a foreign language well, it is necessary to overcome the fear of making mistakes. If the primary goal of language use is communication, then mistakes are secondary considerations that may be dealt with gradually as awareness of those mistakes increases. On the other hand, students should not ignore their mistakes. The language learner may observe how native speakers express themselves, and how native expressions differ from the way the learner might say them. For example, a Spanish speaker who has been saying “I do it” to express willingness to do something in the immediate future, could, by communicating with native speakers of English, observe that native speakers actually say “I’ll do it”. This difference can serve as a basis for the student to change his way of using the present tense in English. But a student who is unwilling to communicate in the first place would lose this opportunity to learn by trial and error.

31. According to the passage, the present tense in English is ________.

A. not used to express a desire to do something in the immediate future

B. used with some verbs but not with others to express future intention

32. According to the passage learners can reduce the number of their mistakes by ________.

A. asking native speakers for explanations

Passage 2

The Chinese have used a method called acupuncture(針灸) to perform operations for about 4, 000 years without putting the patient to sleep. This involves placing flexible needles into certain parts of the body. The needles are available in a number of stores in China and anyone may buy them.

To learn how to use the needles takes about one month of training. But to be skillful requires greater time. The person who performs the acupuncture knows how to put in the needles so the needles themselves are not painful. This person also knows where to place the needles so the patient feels no pain in the area where the operation is to be performed. A particular operation might require 25 or more needles placed in various parts of the body. But now this operation requires only 3 or 4 needles.

Today, the Chinese doctors are trying to learn more about acupuncture. They are trying to develop a convincing theory to explain how the needles work in preventing pain, or why a needle in the wrist, for example, would prevent the pain in the area of the mouth.
A patient who needs an operation is given a choice between having acupuncture or having one of the chemicals used for putting him to sleep. It has been estimated that over half of the patients choose acupuncture because there is no sickness after the operation because the chemical may make the patient sick for a few hours or a day.

A. a medical operation   B. a medical needle

C. a medical technique   D. a medical machine

37. Which statement is NOT true of the performer of acupuncture?

A. He knows where to place the needles without pain.

B. He knows where the operation is to be performed.

C. He knows how to perform the operation to cure the patient.

D. He knows how to use the needles in an operation.

38. To learn how to use the needles, it takes a person ________.

A. several months   B. a couple of weeks
C. a life time   D. almost one month

39. It can be learned from the passage that ________.

A. the person performing the acupuncture knows a lot about the making of needles

D. Most Chinese patients prefer acupuncture to chemicals in curing disease.

Passage 3

Is teaching important? Well, of course it is. There was a time when the necessary knowledge could be taught to the young by family members. But as societies became more complex and division of labor more common, it was impossible for family members to teach the information and skills young people needed to become useful members of the society. As the need for specialists appeared, the job of teaching came into being in our county, and teaching as a job has been of increasing importance over the past hundred years. Today, we have strict rules for teachers. We hope all children can attend schools. Many things tell us that teaching is indeed an “important” job.

In recent years, there has been an increasing need for teachers to be “responsible”. This means that the public expects teachers to succeed in teaching important information to the young. Teachers’ salaries today, while not much, certainly are much higher than they were in years past. These increases have come about because people have realized that without enough salaries, people who have abilities will not become teachers. Today almost no one says that “anybody will do” for a teacher. The public expects “quality people” to teach the young, and progress is being made to give salaries that will make people who have abilities become teachers.

41. Before the job of teaching came into being, ________.

A. family members had been responsible for the education of the young

B. specialists had been in charge of teaching young people

C. young people had had to be self-educated

D. the society had played an important role in educating young people

42. The job of teaching came into being mainly because of ________.

A. the development of the society B. the explosion of information

C. the need for specialists D. the civilization of human beings

43. Teachers’ salaries are raised today in order to ________.

A. show the importance of teaching as a job

B. attract more qualified people to become teachers

C. make teachers “responsible” in their teaching

D. improve the quality of public teaching

44. “Anybody will do for a teacher” (Para. 2) means that ________.

A. almost all people want to become a teacher

B. a teacher is so highly respected that people all want to help him

C. a teacher will do whatever he can for his students

D. the job of teaching is so easy that everybody can do it

45. We know from the passage that ________.

A. it is important to be successful in teaching the young

B. enough salaries are necessary in making quality people become teachers

C. greater progress has to be made in teaching

D. teaching is a product of the society’s division of labor

Passage 4

Though some people have suggested that women should return to housework in order to leave more jobs for men, the idea has been rejected by both women and men in public opinion polls(民意測驗). Lately some union officials have suggested that too many women are employed in type of work more suitable for men and that women should step aside to make way for unemployed young men. They argue that women — especially women in their childbearing years — actually delay economic development and result in lower productivity, poor quality and inefficiency.
To solve the problem, they have suggested that the working women stay at home while their husbands or brothers were given double wages. They argue that under these circumstances, families would retain their same level of income and women could run the house and raise children much better.

The suggestion has been rejected by 9 out of 10 people polled. A hundred persons in a big city were questioned last summer. Out of 40 women, 36 said they were unwilling to leave their jobs, no matter what the situation was. The other 4 said they would like to return home if their jobs could be taken by their sons or daughters. Of 40 men polled, only 6 said they would like to see their wives give up their jobs, if it meant higher wages for themselves.

Some other people have suggested another way called “phased employment theory”. The theory suggests that a woman worker take leave from her job when she is seven months pregnant(妊娠) and stay off the job until her baby reaches the age of 3. It suggests that women on leave receives 75 percent of their normal salary and be allowed to return to work after the 3-year period. This will benefit children, women, their families and the society. Some of those polled, both women and men, felt the idea is a good one. It definitely seems to be more acceptable than the suggestion that women return to home forever.

46. Some union officials have suggested that women should return home because ________.

A. all of them are employed in unsuitable types of work

B. most skilled male workers are now unemployed

C. their participation in work has a bad influence on the economic development

D. nowadays no one can take care of children except women

47. Some union officials have suggested that if women resign their jobs, ________.

A. they should be allowed to attend school to be trained

B. their jobs should be taken over by the male members of their families

C. the male employees in their families should receive double wages

D. their children should also leave their kindergartens

48. According to the passage, the suggestion that women should return to housework was ________.

A. opposed by most men and women B. welcomed by men only

C. welcomed by women only D. welcomed by men and women

49. From the passage we can see “phased employment” means ________.

A. two or more women share the same job

B. women stay at home on weekdays and go to work on weekends or holidays

C. a woman should resign her job forever if she has a child

D. women are allowed to take leave from their jobs during their childbearing years

50. According to the “phased employment” theory, during a woman’s leave from her job ________.

A. her work should be done by her husband or brothers

B. either her husband or her brothers will be given double wages

C. her family can still keep the same level of income

D. her family’s income level will be a little lower than it normally is

Part II Reading Comprehension

31. A【解析】推理判斷題。在原文第七行中作者說在西班牙語中用一般現(xiàn)在時表示將來，而英語當(dāng)中就要用將來時。因此答案選A。

32. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。第四句直接可找到答案。也可以用排除法，A、B、D三個選項的內(nèi)容都與文章無關(guān)。

33. D【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)原文中最后一句話“不愿意交流的學(xué)習(xí)者會失去通過嘗試從錯誤中學(xué)習(xí)的機會”。因此D正確。

34. B【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)原文中第二句話“如果語言的首要目的是交際，那么犯錯誤就是次要的考慮了，可以在對這些錯誤的認(rèn)識增強以后再處理”。因此答案選B。

35. C【解析】主旨大意題。通觀全文，我們可以看出作者的意圖是說交流既然是學(xué)習(xí)語言的首要目的，語言學(xué)習(xí)者在使用語言的過程中就不要懼怕犯錯誤。正是這些語言錯誤使得學(xué)習(xí)者能夠不斷提高。因此答案選C。

36. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第一段第一句可以斷定針灸是用來阻止手術(shù)過程中病人疼痛的技術(shù)。因此答案選C。

37. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第二段的第三、四句“針灸的醫(yī)生知道如何施針、把針施在什么位置上病人才不會感覺疼”。因此A、B、D都符合文章的內(nèi)容。但是并沒有提到他知道如何進行手術(shù)來治好病人。只有C項是錯誤的。

38. D【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。由文章第二段第一句“學(xué)會針灸要花費一個月的時間進行培訓(xùn)”可知答案應(yīng)選D。

39. B【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段的最后兩句話可以知道“過去的手術(shù)全身需要二十五支或更多的針，但現(xiàn)在這樣的手術(shù)只需要三、四根針”。因此答案選B。

40. B【解析】推理判斷題。第二段中談到了現(xiàn)在的針灸用的針比過去減少了；第三段又說醫(yī)生正在學(xué)習(xí)更多的針灸知識，他們也在試圖總結(jié)一些可信的理論，最后一段又談到，據(jù)估計一半多的病人愿意選擇針灸治療。因此可以推斷：中國人的針灸技術(shù)越來越精湛，越來越有效。所以答案選B。

41. A【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段中第三句“在有教師的工作之前，家庭成員負(fù)責(zé)孩子們的教育”，所以A是正確答案。

42. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)文章第一段“隨著社會的發(fā)展，社會分工的普遍，家庭成員已經(jīng)無法滿足孩子們對知識、技術(shù)的需求，特別需要專業(yè)人員，教師這個職業(yè)就應(yīng)運而生了”。所以教師職業(yè)出現(xiàn)的主要原因是對專業(yè)人員的需求。

43. B 【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)文章第二段第三句可以知道“給教師加薪是為了吸引有能力的人當(dāng)老師”，文章的最后一句基本也是一樣的意思，所以選B。

44. D【解析】語義判斷題。Anybody will do for a teacher 的意思是“教師工作太容易了，什么人都能做”。故選D。

45. B 【解析】推理判斷題。文章在第一段的末尾談到教師是非常重要的工作，第二段又談到公眾需要responsible“負(fù)責(zé)任的”、 have abilities“有能力”的教師來教育下一代。同時人們認(rèn)識到提高教師工資待遇才能吸引高素質(zhì)的人成為教師。因此我們可以得出結(jié)論：優(yōu)厚的工資是吸引高素質(zhì)人才成為教師的必要手段。只有B是正確答案，A、C、D均不符合文章的內(nèi)容。

46. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。根據(jù)第一段最后一句話“他們認(rèn)為婦女，尤其生育期的婦女，阻礙了經(jīng)濟發(fā)展，結(jié)果導(dǎo)致生產(chǎn)效率低，質(zhì)量差”。因此可以斷定：他們認(rèn)為婦女應(yīng)該回家的理由是婦女們工作會對經(jīng)濟的發(fā)展有不利的影響。因此選C。

47. C【解析】事實細(xì)節(jié)題。答案在第二段的第一句話“他們建議：如果職業(yè)婦女辭職回家，她們的丈夫或兄弟們應(yīng)當(dāng)掙雙份工資”。

48. A 【解析】推理判斷題。文章第三段第一句說到“參加民意調(diào)查的人有十分之九反對此建議”，然后又具體地說明了對男女調(diào)查的結(jié)果證明絕大多數(shù)人都反對婦女回家做家務(wù)，因此選A。

49. D【解析】語義判斷題。第四段第二句大意是“婦女可以在懷孕七個月的時候請假，一直到孩子三歲的時候再來上班”，所以我們猜phased employment的意思很可能是“分階段地參加工作，”所以答案選D“婦女生育期間是允許請假不上班的”。

50. D【解析】推理判斷題。最后一段第三句“有人建議婦女在生育假期中拿正常工資的75%，并且三年以后可以回到原來的工作崗位上來”，因此婦女在此期間的收入要比平常低，故選D。
