个正确选项。

Vending machines (自动售货机) sell many different kinds of things. Some of them sell cold drinks like coke or orange juice, or hot drinks like coffee or tea. Others sell sweets, stamps, tickets, newspapers, and other small things. In some cities, vending machines are even used to sell a lot of hot meals.

These machines have been welcomed for two reasons. They save (节省) time and they are convenient (方便的). Things sold in vending machines need no shop assistant or cashier. In many places people can use the machines at any time of day or night, and they can find vending machines everywhere.

Although there are many different sizes and kinds of vending machines, they all work in nearly the same way. People put money into the machine and then open a door to receive what they buy. Some machines will also return change to the people, and a few will even give change to paper notes. But the idea is the same. People like to save time and are usually willing to pay a higher price for this convenience.

Day 1

Start your trip at about 2:45 pm in Beijing. It takes three hours and fifteen minutes to drive to Tanggu Port.

The ships between Tanggu Port and Dalian Port have drawn more and more visitors, and they are so large that cars can park in them.

Day 2

The ship arrives at Dalian Port at about 8 am. If the weather is nice, you can enjoy the sunrise( 日出). After checking in at the hotel, you can spend the rest of the day visiting some interesting places.

Day 3

The last day will give you a break at the indoor swimming pool(室内游泳池) in the hotel. Seawater comes into the pool every day. So even on cold days, your dream (梦想) of swimming in seawater can come true. Going back to Beijing, visitors need to get on the ship. It leaves at 6 pm.

Day 4

The ship returns to Tanggu Port at around 6 am. In another three hours, you can be back in Beijing.

全国英语等级考试第一级2012年3月笔试真卷

一、单选题(本大题15小题.每题1.0分,共15.0分。请从以下每一道考题下面备选答案中选择一个最佳答案,并在答题卡上将相应题号的相应字母所属的方框涂黑。)

第1题

You can ______ newspapers if you want to know what is going on in the world.

A see

B watch

C read

【正确答案】:C 【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是近义词辨析。三个选项都有“看”的意思,但含义有一定的区别。see意为“看见,看到”,强调“看”的结果;watch意为“观看,注视”,强调“看”的过程,有欣赏的意味,通常用于看电视、体育比赛等;read意为“阅读,看”,通常指读书、看报、看杂志等。故C正确。

[知识拓展] 另一个较常用的表示“看”的词是look,指集中注意力、用心、有目的地看,强调“看”的动作。单独使用时,用来引起对方的注意;如果跟宾语,要和at连用。例如:

Look! Jane is over there. 看!简在那儿。

Please look at the blackboard. 请看黑板。

第2题

Mr. Smith is full of ______. He likes to make other people laugh.

A fun

B care

C trouble

【正确答案】:A

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是名词词义辨析。fun意为“乐趣,逗乐”,care意为“照料,照顾”,trouble意为“麻烦,问题”,由后句“他喜欢逗别人笑。”可以推断出前面表示的意思是史密斯先生是比较有趣的人。故A正确。

[知识拓展] be full of后接名词,表示“装满了,充满了”。例如:She is always full of confidence. 她总是充满自信。The bottle is full of milk.瓶里装满了牛奶。

第3题

I can't open this door. Can you show me ______ to open it?

A when

B how

C why

【正确答案】:B

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是特殊疑问词的用法。由第一句“我打不开门”可以推断,宾语从句的内容是如何开门,而选项中只有how表示“怎么,如何”。故B正确。

[知识拓展] when引导宾语从句时意为“什么时候”,表示时间;why意为“为什么”,表示原因

第4题

Nicola left school at eighteen, went to college, ______ then worked at an airport.

A so

B and

C or

【正确答案】:B

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是连词的用法。and意为“并且,又”,表示并列关系,and then是固定搭配,意为“接着,然后”。本句描述的是尼古拉的经历,横线的前后两部分为并列关系。故B正确。

[知识拓展] so意为“所以,因此”,连接结果状语从句,表示因果关系;or意为“或者”,表示选择关系。例如:

He was ill, so he didn't come.他生病了,因此没有来。

You Can come now Or you can meet us there later.

你可以现在过来,或者过一会和我们在那里会合。

第5题

They'll have to find a way to ______ the job more interesting.

A make

B do

C take

【正确答案】:A 【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是使役动词的用法。make作使役动词时可跟复合结构,即“make+宾语+宾语补足语”,表示“使,使变得”。在句中,more interesting是形容词的比较级当宾语补足语,表示使工作更有趣,而do和take都不能当使役动词。故A正确。

[知识拓展] make作使役动词时,宾语补足语除了形容词外,常见的还有以下几种:

1) make+宾语+do sth.,意为“使某人做某事”,例如:

He made the boy work twelve hours a day.

他让那个男孩一天工作十二小时。

2) make+宾语+现在分词,意为“使某人/某物一直在做某事”,

现在分词与宾语之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系,例如:

Don't make yore computer working all the time. 不要让你的电脑一直工作着。

3)make+宾语+过去分词,意为“使某人/某物被„„”,宾语与后面的动作之间是被动关系,例如:

The strange noise made us frightened.奇怪的声音使我们感到恐惧。 第6题

The walls in their office are covered ______ all kinds of pictures.

A with

B on

C of

【正确答案】:A

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是介词的用法。be covered with是固定搭配,表示“被„„覆盖”,故A正确。

[知识拓展] 可用于“be+过去分词+with”结构中的过去分词常见的还有:

filled(充满),connected(相关),satisfied(满意),pleased(高兴),crowded(挤满)等。例如:

Her parents are satisfied with her performance.她的父母对她的表现很满意。

The classroom is crowded with people.教室里挤满了人。

第7题

I love that book, and I've read it ______ times.

A few

B lots

C several

【正确答案】:C

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是表示不定数量的形容词的用法。根据前面“我很喜欢那本书。”可知,此处表示的意思是“已经读过几次”。several意为“几,一些”,可修饰可数名词。故C正确。

[知识拓展] few意为“不多,很少”,可修饰可数名词,表示否定含义,如:few students很少的学生;lots不能单独修饰名词,要用lots of或a lot of,意为“许多,很多”,两者既可修饰可数名词,也可修饰不可数名词,如:lots of presents很多礼物,a lot of money很多钱。

第8题

No one can stop him ______ computer games on Sundays.

A from playing

B to play

C play

【正确答案】:A

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的是动词的用法。stop sb. from doing sth. 是固定搭配,意为“阻止某人做某事”,故A正确。

[知识拓展] stop还常用在以下两种结构中:stop to do sth., 意为停止下来,去做另一件事;stop doing sth., 意为停止正在做的事。

例如:

When the teacher came in, the students stopped talking;when the teacher went out, the students stopped to talk. 老师走进来时,学生们停止说话;老师走出去时,学生们又停下来开始说话了。

第9题

Our garden is the second ______ one in our town. A large

B larger

C largest

【正确答案】:C

【本题分数】:1.0分

【答案解析】

本题考查的足形容词最高级的用法。序数词修饰形容词,表示第几最高、最大或最长等时,要用形容词的最高级。故C正确。

[知识拓展] 形容词最高级的修饰语除序数词外,常见的还有:by far,nearly,almost,by no means。例如:

The Yellow River is the second longest river in China.黄河是中国的第二长河。

She is by far the most beautiful girl that I have ever met. 她是我迄今为止见过的最漂亮的女孩。

第10题

— Has your sister finished her paper yet? — I don't know. She ______ it this morning.

A writes

B was writing

C has written

【正确答案】:B

How to start your life in the USA? It's very important to learn to use English well. But very often it isn't easy to find someone to talk to in a big city. However, here are some suggestions.

· If you want to use English in the street, first, get or borrow a dog ! Walk him several times a day! Americans love pets(宠物) and usually stop to talk to anyone with a dog.

· Then, try to eat in a restaurant. People sitting at the same table with you will sometimes talk to you if they see that you are a foreigner.

· Always ask for information from a woman if you are a man, and from a man if you are a woman ! This often works very well though I don't know why.

· Learn to say "Please," "Thank you" and "You're welcome" before you come to the USA and

use them all the time! Always say "Fine" in answer to the question "How are you".

2010年3月全国英语等级考试PETS一级第4页(共8页)

· Also, when someone says they will meet you at six o'clock, be sure to be there by six. Americans think highly of time and expect everyone to be "on time. "

All in all, don't worry! Just bring a lot of money and do as I told you. I'm sure you will have a very good start and enjoy your fife here.

56. Of all the pets Americans like dogs best

[A] Right [B] Wrong [C] Doesn't Say

57. Foreigners can practice speaking English with people in the street.

[A] Right [B] Wrong [C] Doesn't Say

58. It seems easier for a woman to get help from a man than from another woman in the USA.

[A] Right [B] Wrong [C] Doesn't Say

59. Americans do not care at all whether you are on time or not.

[A] Right [B] Wrong [C] Doesn't Say

60. The writer is now in the USA.

[A] Right [B] Wrong [C] Doesn't Say

请根据下面短文回答61~65题:

In 1954, an American called Ray Kroc was selling milk machines. Most restaurants bought one or two of these machines, but one restaurant ordered eight of them. Kroc was surprised at this big order. He decided to visit the restaurant.

It was a small hamburger stand(汉保包销售点). A group of young people in clean, white uniforms (制服)were at work. They were happy, fast and polite. People kept on coming to buy food. Kroc thought this was a very successful business. He looked up at the name over the door. It read, "McDonald's Hamburgers".

Kroc found out that two brothers owned the business. They were called Mac and Dick McDonald. He suggested that they should set up more restaurants, but the brothers were happy with their life, and they themselves did not want to. However, they let Kroc set up other restaurants for them. That was the start of the biggest fast food company. In 1955, Kroc opened his first McDonald's near Chicago. Four years later, the 100th McDonald's was opened. In 1961 Kroc bought all rights(权

SECTION Ⅲ Reading Comprehension

Part A

Directions:

Read the following three texts. Answer the questions on each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.

Text 1

When Katherine Chon was in fifth grade, she drew a "dream tree" representing the path she hoped her life would take. One branch led to Harvard Medical School, Which is exactly what her mother had hoped for when the Chons moved to the U. S. from South Korea to give their three children opportunities.

Always a diligent student, Katherine started to learn medicine at Brown. But then she added a new limb to her dream tree—one that her mother still doesn't understand. Shocked by the misfortune of some South Korean women, Katherine joined forces with another Brown student to form the Polaris Project, now one of the largest anti-human-trafficking organizations in the country. "It was really hard for my parents," says Katherine. "They had so many life stresses so their children could get a great education and have a comfortable life. "

The dreams of parents and children often differ, but the conflict can be especially painful in first-generation immigrant families where the parents have made enormous sacrifices. Lisa Park, an

assistant professor at the University of California, San Diego, says that the focus of every family that moves to the United States to provide opportunities for their children is almost always on the future, with little mention of the circumstances that compelled them to move. And even though the parents are the ones working 12-hour days, the children are also under intense pressure to perform in ways that will justify the parents' sacrifice.

The contrast between parents' dreams and children's realities can be particularly sharp for daughters who have grown up with almost infinite opportunities. Their mothers often came from places where

opportunities for women were limited, which makes the daughters' choices even harder to understand. Mary Lugemwa's parents encouraged her to study math or science at Harvard. She complied at first,

majoring in computer science. But she is currently working as a film producer for a nonprofit organization called Meaningful Media. "I sometimes feel guilty," she says, "having chosen to be an artist, because I know that if I had chosen a scientific background, I could help my parents a lot more. "

46. When Katherine Chon was a fifth-grader, ______.

[A] she had a great interest in drawing

[B] she had a clear vision of her future

[C] she had an independent personality

[D] she had a desire to study in the U. S.

47. It can be inferred from the text that Katherine's mother

______.

[A] was disappointed at her daughter's decision

[B] was shocked by the suffering of some women

[C] failed to give her kids enough opportunities

[D] failed to realize her own dream to be a doctor

48. According to the text, in first-generation immigrant families, the parents feel frustrated if ______.

[A] they fail to adjust to the circumstances

[B] they are forced to make great sacrifices

[C] their children fail to focus on the future

[D] their children develop against their wishes

49. According to Lisa Park, first-generation immigrant

children______.

[A] avoid the slightest mention of their parents' past

[B] focus on seizing chances for future development

[C] work very hard to justify their parents' sacrifices

[D] are under pressure to fulfill their parents' dreams

50. We learn from Mary Lugemwa's case that______.

[A] her parents cherished opportunities more than she did

[B] her parents' dreams and her reality could be balanced

[C] she had a quite different view of life from her parents

[D] she enjoyed infinite opportunities in career development

Text 2

Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) has launched a new public awareness campaign aimed at Canadian Justice Minister Irwin Cotler. "Enough is Enough" advocates dropping the Criminal Code's blood alcohol concentration (BAC) limit from 0.08 to 0.05 percent, to

"protect innocent drivers on our roads. "MADD Canada CEO Andrew Murie thinks that lowering the BAC limit could result in a 6-to-18 percent

reduction in crash deaths. But questions have been raised about the science behind that campaign.

MADD selectively cites a report published in 2002 by Robert Mann of the Mental Health Centre. Mann, in turn, had got those numbers from two separate studies whose data was selected from Sweden and Australia. The conclusions in Mann's report seem to ignore the Swedish authors' numerous warnings and cautions, as well as the limitations in the Australian study. First, the Australian study

examined the effectiveness of breath testing, not lowered BAC levels, on fatal traffic crashes. Also, that research was started in 1976 when "liquid lunches" were far more common. What's more, the

Australian data varied: whereas the state of Queensland saw the 18 percent decline in fatal accidents cited by MADD's Murie, in

neighboring New South Wales, fatal accidents decreased just 8 percent.

It is also reported by the Ontario Community Council that the majority of drivers in alcohol-related fatal crashes are repeat offenders with BACs over 0.15 percent—meaning that the problem is drivers who repeatedly get behind the wheel with BAC levels twice the legal limit, not social drinkers who consume a glass of wine or two. This makes MADD's concern seem wasteful, given the downward trend in alcohol-related traffic deaths.

The Canada Safety Council, the Canadian Council of Motor

Transport Administrators and the Traffic Injury Research Foundation take issue with MADD's campaign. Even the Ontario Community Council has determined that lowering the BAC would mean more work for police and the courts. But to MADD's Murie, the math question is simple: "If you lower BAC limits, regardless to what level, you'll save Canadian lives. "Unfortunately, the math doesn't quite add up.

51. MADD launched a public awareness campaign in order to ______.

[A] criticize the Justice Minister

[B] improve BAC measurement

[C] restrict drivers' access to alcohol

[D] revise the law regarding drunk driving

52. From the text we learn that MADD cites a report that ______.

[A]justifies its new campaign

[B] is favored by the authorities

[C] sums up major public concerns

[D] is mentioned in two other studies

53. It is implied in the text that Mann's report is unreliable because______.

[A] it was based on some unsound research

[B] it got its data from two inconsistent studies

[C] it was written in conditions no longer valid

[D] it ignored the limitations of the studies cited

54. The text indicates that MADD's campaign ______.

[A] will not affect social drinkers

[B] may turn out to be of little value

[C] is going to reduce governmental labor

[D] has won support from some organizations

55. The writer's attitude towards the campaign is ______.

[A] satirical [B] scornful

[C] suspicious [D] supportive

Text 3

A recent study demonstrated how powerful a few words can be:

Forty competitive tennis players were shown digital images of balls coming their way. Just before each ball appeared, the players saw or heard comments like "Good shot" or "Bad shot. " The reaction times of players hearing negative remarks were measurably slower. And these were athletes who trained frequently to play a consistent game and not make unforced errors.

What is the explanation? Negative feedback weakens anyone's

belief in his or her ability to succeed. But if you can hold on to a winning attitude, you'll make a greater effort and also create

positive drive. Confident people inspire others; opportunities seem to come their way more often. They become magnets for success.

Learn the importance of giving yourself pep talks, and keep the voice in your head positive. The best athletes' success is rarely due to raw talent alone. It's because they're simply better prepared. They stay focused, they're willing to work as hard as they need to, and they keep the positive voice in their heads switched on.

Perhaps the most important aspect of being your own coach is to do what any outside adviser-or a good parent, for that matter—would preach: practice, practice, practice. Avoid individuals who suck your energy and diminish your confidence. Hang out with the people who see you at your best, and remind you about it very often. Pessimists drag you down, as do whiners and critics. If there's one winning behavior that people building confidence should model, it's the willingness to get back into the game after a setback. Don't nurse your wounds.

There are, however, important warnings. Panicking can compound a small misstep by causing you to lose your head and forget to think clearly. If you suffer a terrible loss, give yourself time to absorb the blow. Don't deny the hurt or try to solve the problem immediately. Gather your support system around you and simply get nurtured. Sitting around and thinking about your loss is the worst thing you can do to solve your problem.

56. We learn from the first paragraph that ______.

[A] excellent performance often goes with well-trained players
