2021年成人英语三级模拟练习题1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim, as a friend, really feel good about it ? Or did he envy my luck?” “And was Paul friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it is too late.

在任何年龄段，我们都有可能犯错误。有些错误是与金钱有的，但大部分是与人有关的。“我和海伦分手，杰瑞在意吗?”，“我得到那份好工作时，我的好朋友吉姆是高兴还是嫉妒?”“保尔仅仅是因为我拥有车才对我友好吗?”。当我们回头想一想时，诸如此类的疑问确实能让我们感觉不爽，但是往往已经太晚了。

Why do we go wrong about our friends, or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don’t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You’re a lucky dog!” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You’re a lucky guy!”, that is being friendly. But “a lucky dog”? There is a bit of envy in those words. What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.

为什么我们会误解我们的朋友或者敌人呢?有时，人们所说的掩盖了他们真实的意思。如果我们不是用心去倾听的话，我们会误解其言外之意的。假如有人告诉你，“你是个幸运儿!”他真的是和你站在一边吗?如果他说，“你是个幸运的家伙!”，那是对你表示友好。“幸运儿?”这话中就有点嫉妒的味儿了。其实他真想说的是，他不认为你应该如此的幸运。

“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another phrase that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem. But this phrase contains the thought that your problem is not at all important.

“记住所有的你必须感谢的事情”是个话中有话的句子。它可能意味着说话者要你看到你存在的问题，但这句话也有另外的含义，即你的问题根本不重要。

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Is what he says shown by the tone of voice? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save your another mistake.

你如何才能知道某人话里的真正意思呢?一种方法就是仔细观察说话者。他的话与他的表现混合吗?他的语气反映所说的话吗?他的眼神如何?停下来，好好想一想。你花在思考别人话中有话的努力会是你不犯另外的错误。

Passage 2

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:

It has been shown that children who smoke have certain characteristics. Compared with non-smokers they are more rebellious (反抗的), they are more likely to leave school early, and are more often breaking the law. Many of these features can be summarized as anticipation (预期) of adulthood.

人们发现吸烟的小孩呈现某些特点。与不吸烟的小孩相比，他们更具有叛逆性。他们更易于辍学和犯法。这些特点可归结为成年期待行为。

There are a number of factors which determine the onset of smoking, and these are largely psychological and social. They include availability of cigarettes, curiosity, rebelliousness, appearing tough, anticipation of adulthood, social confidence, the example of parents and teachers, and smoking by friends and older brothers and sisters.

几种因素决定了吸烟习惯的形成，其中大部分是与心理和社会有关的。这些因素包括香烟的供应程度、人们的好奇心和叛逆性、装酷、希望成为成年人、社会信心、父母和教师的榜样以及吸烟朋友和兄弟姐妹的影响。

It should be much easier to prevent children from starting to smoke than to persuade adults to give up the habit once established, but in fact this has proved very difficult. The example set by people in authority, especially parents, health care workers, and teachers, is of prime importance. School rules should forbid smoking by children in the buildings. This rule has been introduced at Summer Hill School where I spent my schooldays.

按理说，预防孩子吸烟要比劝说成年人戒烟要容易些，但事实上并非如此。权威人士，特别是父母、医务工作者以及教师的榜样是非常重要的。学校规章制度应该禁止孩子们在教学楼里吸烟。这种制度已经在我上学的夏山(Summer Hill)学校里实施。

There is, however, a risk of children smoking just to rebel against the rules, and even in those schools which have tried to enforce no smoking by physical punishment there is as much smoking as in other schools. Nevertheless, banning smoking is probably on balance beneficial. Teachers too should not smoke in school buildings, at least not in front of children.

然而，还是有孩子不顾禁令，有意作对。甚至在实行体罚禁烟的学校里，学生吸烟现象和其他学校一样严重。但是，总的来说，禁烟是有益。教师们也不应该在学校大楼里吸烟，至少不要当着孩子们的面。

A. Some children start to smoke out of curiosity.

B. Many children start to smoke because they want to appear mature.

C. In order to have fewer children smokers, parents, teachers and health care workers should not smoke.

D. It is not as difficult to prevent children from starting to smoke as to dissuade adults from smoking.

9. The writer concludes that school rules to forbid smoking C .

A. should be introduced, for it really works at the school where he once studied

Passage 3

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:

A library is a place to find out about anything. In it there are mostly books, but there are also pictures, papers, magazines, maps and records. Special science and art shows, story hours, plays, and contests may also be held there.

图书馆是求知的地方。在那里，大部分是书籍，但也有图片、论文、杂志、地图和唱片。图书馆也会举办专业科学和艺术展、故事讲演、电影放映、戏剧演出以及各类比赛。

Long, long ago a library had only books, and these were hard to get. Books could be written only by hand. There were so few that no one was allowed to take them out of the library. After the printing machine was invented, books could be made faster. This helped libraries get more books.

很久以前，图书馆仅藏有图书，那些图书很难获得。书籍是手工书写的。由于所藏的书籍太少了，任何人都不许将书带出图书馆。印刷机器的发明加快了书籍的印刷速度，图书馆也因此获得更多的书籍。

To borrow a book to take home today, a person just needs a library card. In many libraries a helper checks the book out. He or she stamps the card. The mark shows the date by which the book must be returned. If the book is returned late, the person must usually pay money, called a fine. In some libraries a computer has taken the place of stamping.

现在，要借一本书回家，人们所要做的仅仅是拥有一张借书卡。在很多的图书馆里，图书馆员会帮助你检索所要的书籍，并在借书卡上盖印。该印记注明还书日期。如果未能如期还书，该读者通常要付款，即罚款。在一些图书馆里，计算机已经取代了在借书卡上盖印。

Books in a library are put into a certain order to help people find what they want. All books about animals may be placed together. Or all stories written by the same person may be placed together. A big set of cards lists all the library’s books in alphabetical (字母的) order. It is called the card catalog (目录). It tells where each of them can be found.

图书馆里的书籍是按一定的顺序排放的，以帮助人们找到其所要的书。所有与动物有关的书籍可能排放在一起。所有同一作者的故事书可能排在一起。一套按字母顺序排列的卡片记录所有馆藏书籍的。这就是目录。该目录告诉我们书存放的位置。

People who live far in the country may find it hard to get to a library. For these people there are bookmobiles, which are large trucks filled with books, Each truck travels to many places. All the people have to do is to meet the truck and choose the books they would like to read.

生活在偏远乡村的人们可能发现到图书馆很不方便。对于这些人，我们有流动图书馆，即装载书籍的大型卡车。每辆卡车都会开到很多地方的，人们所有做的就是等待该车辆的到来，挑选合适他们的书籍。

很多到访者到剑桥都会问一个问题，即“哪里是剑桥大学”，但是没有人能给你指方向的，因为那里没有校园。剑桥大学由31所自治学院组成。整个城市布满了演讲厅、图书馆、实验室、博物馆和办公室。

Part Five: Writing (15%)

Directions: For this part, you are allowed 25 minutes to write a passage of about 100 words entitled “On Friendship”, based on the following information:

1. 交朋友的必要性;

2. 什么是真正的友谊。

On Friendship

As a human being, one can hardly do without a friend. Friends can give you a lot. First, if you have trouble with some problems, you can consult your good friends and exchange opinions. Thus, you will feel comfortable and encouraged. Secondly, if you wish to do some physical exercises, such as playing table tennis, you could play with friends and have a good time.

But what is true friendship? Some people think friends are people whom they can play with. In my opinion, a friend in need is a friend indeed. True friendship can encourage you when you are in difficulties. A true friend not only shares with you your joy and happiness but also your trouble and anxiety. When you need him, he will give you a hand and spare no efforts.

As far as I’m concerned, I wish to make as many friends as possible. The world is a big family, and we will feel relaxed in a friendly atmosphere.
