統(tǒng)招專(zhuān)升本英語(yǔ)模擬試題及答案(11.09)

　　閱讀理解：

　　There are two types of people in the world. Although they have equal degrees of health and wealth and the other comforts of life, one becomes happy, the other becomes miserable.This arises from the different ways in which they consider things, persons, and events, and the resulting effects upon their minds.

　　The people who are to be happy fix their attention on the conveniences of things, the pleasant parts of conversation,the well-prepared dishes, the goodness of the wines, and the fine weather. They enjoy all the cheerful things. Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things. Therefore, they are continually discontented. By their remarks, they sour the pleasures of society, offend many people, and make themselves disagreeable everywhere. If this turn of mind were founded in nature, such unhappy persons would be the more to be pitied.

　　The tendency to criticize and be disgusted is perhaps taken up originally by imitation. It grows into a habit,unknown to its possessors. The habit may be strong, but it may be cured when those who have it are convinced of its bad effects on their interests and tastes. I hope this little warning may be of service to them, and help them change this habit.

　　Although in fact it is chiefly an act of the imagination, it has serious consequences in life, since it brings on deep sorrow and bad luck. Those people offend many others, nobody loves them, and no one treats them with more than the most common politeness and respect, and scarcely that. This frequently puts them in bad temper and draws them into arguments. If they aim at obtaining some advantage in rank or fortune, nobody wishes them success. Nor will anyone speak a word to favor their hopes. If they bring on themselves public disapproval, no one will defend or excuse them. These people should change this bad habit. If they do not , it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.

　　問(wèn)題：

　　1.People who are to be unhappy _______.

　　A.always consider things differently from others

　　B.are usually influenced by the results of certain things

　　C.can discover the unpleasant part of certain things

　　D.usually have a faultfinding habit

　　【參考答案】D

　　[考點(diǎn)]推理判斷題。

　　【精析】D 由題干關(guān)鍵詞unhappy定位到第二段第三句“Those who are to be unhappy think and speak only of the contrary things.”可知，不快樂(lè)的人的表現(xiàn)是，他們總是看到或關(guān)注事物的負(fù)面，再由本段第四、五句話(huà)可知，他們總是不知足，厭煩社會(huì)美好事物，侵犯他人，由此可知推出他們愛(ài)挑毛病。因此選項(xiàng)D與文義相符。

　　2.When those unhappy people meet others, they will _______.

　　A.have a good taste of the pleasures of society

　　B.feel depressed about the pleasures of society

　　C.be happy with the pleasures of society

　　D.enjoy the pleasures of society

　　【參考答案】B

　　[考點(diǎn)]事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題

　　【精析】B 根據(jù)第二段后面對(duì)不快樂(lè)的人的描述可知，他們會(huì)使社會(huì)原本愉快的事情變得不愉快。因此，選項(xiàng)B符合文義。

　　3.Which of the following statement is not true according to the passage?

　　A.We should pity all such unhappy people.

　　B.Such unhappy people are critical about everything.

　　C.If such unhappy people recognize the bad effects of the habit on themselves, they may get rid of it.

　　D.Such unhappy people are also not content with themselves.

　　【參考答案】A

　　[考點(diǎn)]事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題

　　【精析】A 第二段最后一句是一個(gè)表示與現(xiàn)在事實(shí)相反的虛擬條件句，所以A項(xiàng)不正確，故選A。

　　4. “And scarcely that” in the last paragraph means _______.

　　A.just like that

　　B.almost not like that

　　C.more than that?

　　D.not at all like that

　　【參考答案】B

　　[考點(diǎn)]詞語(yǔ)理解題

　　【精析】B scarcely表示“幾乎不是，幾乎沒(méi)有”的意思，含有否定意義。選項(xiàng)A、C都表示肯定，選項(xiàng)D太過(guò)絕對(duì)。因此，選項(xiàng)中只有B符合文義。

　　5.If such unhappy persons don’t change their bad behavior, the authors suggests that people _______.

　　A.avoid contact with them

　　B.criticize their misconduct

　　C.help them recognize its bad effects

　　D.show no respect and politeness to them

　　【參考答案】A

　　[考點(diǎn)]事實(shí)細(xì)節(jié)題

　　【精析】A 由題干關(guān)鍵詞change their bad behavior定位到全文最后兩句“These people should change this bad habit. If they do not, it will be good for others to avoid any contact with them.”可知，作者建議人們對(duì)這樣的人最好采取回避的態(tài)度。題干中的bad behavior是文中bad habit的轉(zhuǎn)述，故選A。
