公共英语学习心得

全国公共英语等级考试技巧心得

全国英语等级考试(PETS)考试的重点同四六级有所不同，它主要考查交际能力，但并不完全排斥对语言知识(语法、词汇等)的考查。PETS考查的内容包括：听力、语言知识、阅读、写作、口语。要想在PETS中取得好成绩，首先，考生要对自己的能力有个估价，根据自己的英语水平选择参加其中任何一个级别的考试。

PETS不具有评价普通中学和大学校内英语教学水平的功能，拒绝向考生的教学或辅导单位提供考生成绩;因此，考生应该实实在在的通过各种方法在平时努力提高自身的英语水平。做到“心中有货”，自然考试的时候就会游刃有余。当然，采取好的应试策略对于取得一个优异的成绩也是相当重要的。那么，考生该如何提高自己的实际英语水平和应试能力呢? 以下，笔者根据自己的实际经验对PETS考试中的听力、阅读理解和口语提出几点看法，希望对渴望在PETS中取得优异成绩的考生有所帮助。

一、听力部分

听力部分在100分的原始分就占20分，而其加权占了30%，可见PETS对听力的重视。

提高听力的水平，必须多听;要听就必须有合适的听力材料，有恰当的练习方法。一般说来，在学习第二语言时，一个人的听力和他的阅读能力相比往往差了一些，因此选择听力材料相对容易。听力材料可以分三部分：来源：考试大

一是各种考试真题和模拟题的录音带;二是英美新闻或广播专题;三是趣味英语。不管选什么，选材不易过难，因为那样会挫伤练习听力的兴趣和积极性; 但也不能太容易，因为什么都听懂了，就起不到练习的效果。因此，要选那些大部分都能听懂，但又不能完全听懂得内容，反复多听几篇，最后争取全听懂。

各级的PETS考试对听力的要求不同，对不同的级别采取不同的复习策略。例如，PETS三级对听力的要求是考生理解事实性信息的能力(A部分)和理解总体和特定信息的能力(B部分)，这就要求考生掌握在交际场合各类听力测试题的解题方式，如人物关系的判断、谈话发生地点时间的推理、对话所谈论事件的判断、对未来的推测、说话者寓意的判断、原因的推断、计算等。

提高英语听力的水平单靠“听”是不能解决问题的，个人的听力水平的高低与其掌握的词汇量、对语法结构的熟悉程度、知识面、理解能力甚至阅读速度等都密切相关。考生平时应注意全面提高自身英语各方面的水平。

二、阅读理解

阅读理解考察考生获取信息的能力，这部分的内容在PETS的各级考试中都占相当的部分。要提高阅读理解部分的得分，考生必须提高英语的阅读能力。许多考生对于如何有效提高阅读水平和应试能力感到茫然和困惑，主要的原因在于大部分的考生将阅读理解简单的理解为词汇加语法，认为只要掌握了这两者，也就解决了阅读问题。那么，该如何提高自己的阅读水平呢?

首先，考生在平时要注意运用正确的阅读方法，要培养浏览、查找、预测、研读和宏观把握文章内容结构的能力。其次，要注意解题技巧的培养。

再次，考生应根据考试的级别采取有针对性的练习，例如，在PETS三级考试中，阅读理解部分由A、B两节组成，考查考生理解书面英语的能力。A节3篇文章15题，选项为4选1，考查考生理解总体和特定信息的能力。B节1篇文章5题，考生须从7个选项中排除两个干扰项，将正确的概括与5段文字逐一搭配成对。这是考查考生理解文章的主旨要义的能力。在复习阅读理解部分时要有针对性，首先要复习理解文中的具体信息，并能根据上下文推测文中的生词。

平时训练时，要选择几本适合自己的阅读教材，在学习过程中要培养好的阅读习惯，不仅用眼，更要用脑去读，做到积极主动地阅读。用头脑去分析、整理所读到的内容，这是有效阅读的根本所在，也是阅读的最高境界。

三、口语

要获得教育部考试中心颁发的合格证书，不仅笔试成绩要合格，同时必须参加相应级别的口试。口试满分5分，3分以上(含3分)为合格。要使口试取得好成绩，平时必须张大口讲; 要讲口语，首先要背一些容易记、不容易忘的句子; 其次，要选一本合适的教材，如目前流行的《随心所欲说英语》、《大嘴说英语》等。

同时，对PETS的不同级别采取不同的应试策略，以第三级为例，口试部分由A、

B、C节组成。A节考查考生提供个人信息--包括回答有关日常生活、家乡、家庭、工作、学习等问题的能力。B节考查考生就信息卡上的图片或文字讨论有关问题的能力。C节要求考生就信息卡上的图片或文字作简短描述，之后另一考生就同一话题阐述个人观点。针对这些特点，口语的复习要做好两方面的内容。

考生们应该知道，几乎所有的主考老师都非常友好，都希望你成功。应做到尽量放松，把自己的每一个动作、行为都视为正常的行为。不要为自己第一次出现的停顿而感到紧张，而要集中精力想一下自己要说什么样的内容。否则，就可能出现越来越多的停顿而使考试无法进行。

说来惭愧，尽管以较好的分数通过了PETS-5考试，我从头到尾，认真做过的模拟题也就只有两套——当然，这也从一个侧面说明了：准备英语考试，少做题才是硬道理。 WHY?

曲刚在《走出学英语的迷茫》里，有一段妙趣横生的文字，对这个问题，做了最好的说明，摘抄如下：

“我的汉语水平在中国人里可算是一流，我可以一分钟课都不用准备就滔滔不绝地给别人讲两个小时的讲课，而且讲座中还常常有精彩之处被掌声打断。然而我的汉语水平也有软肋，这个软肋常搞得我焦头烂额，频频出丑，每每遇到这个软肋，我讲的汉语就会张口结舌，上句不接下句，就会耿耿于怀而不敢懈怠焉。

这个软肋就是两个可恨的成语，就是“果不其然”和“每况愈下”，这两个恶梦般的成语恐怕要惊扰我一生了。曾几何时，我遇到了一个让我倒霉的办公室的同事，他与我关系甚好，可谓形影不离，但他就是有一个毛病，就是总说错两个成语，一个是“果不其然”，一个是“每况愈下”，他还偏偏就愿意用这两个成语，每当用这两个成语时，他总是说成“果其不然”和“每愈况下”，好心的我不知道给他纠正了多少次，有时甚至一天就要纠正好几次，后来我恼火了，干脆破口大骂他没脑子，他被骂得狗血淋头，便长了脑子，知错要改了。可糟糕的是他并不是一下子就改过来了，而是一会改过来一会改不过来，这样他的嘴里便交替出现了“果不其然”和“果其不然”，“每况愈下”和“每愈况下”，仅仅三两日，就搞得我们全办公室的人都晕了，开始时大家还能分辨出哪个是对的哪个是错的，他说对了就表扬他一下，他说错了就抨击他一下，可到了后来谁也搞不清哪个是对的哪个是错的了，以至于大家为此相互争执起来，于是有人翻开了字典，查到了正确的那个，并把它打印出来贴在墙上，由办公室的领导当众宣布正确答案，命令大家以后只许说正确的那个，不许说错误的那个。总算拨乱反正了。可好景不长，没过多久大家就发现，领导宣布正确答案还不如不宣布，因为大家一重视，一紧张，反而更不知道哪个是正确的哪个是错误的了。每当大家滔滔不绝地说话时，每当用到这两个成语时，大家都会情不自禁地停一下，想一想是“果不其然”正确，还是“果其不然”正确，是“每况愈下”正确还是“每愈况下”正确，然后再说出口，到后来大家紧张到干脆害怕这两个成语了，每当说话时都尽量避开说这两个成语，能不说它就不说它。可说来也怪，你越是心里想着不说这个成语，这个成语就越是一不小心就溜哒出来，吓得你魂飞魄散心惊肉跳，到最后简直谈虎色变，要么不敢讲话了，要么一不小心说到了这两个成语，就干脆哑口无言地跳过去，眼睛狠狠地瞪一眼那个招人恨的同事，心里暗骂你个倒霉鬼。 …… ”

复习过程我选择上外的大学英语精读这套教材，虽然有人对它指手画脚，实际上作为一套教材，它可以说是非常经典的。由于报5级，所以我直接从第四册开始学习。

首先我把单词读一遍，一是掌握单词的发音，因为我有些音调拿不准，二是有些单词的意思和常用意思不一致，所以要先过一遍。词汇是外语的基础，5级的词汇量应该在6000以上，如果阅读过程中生词率高于30%，考试就没法考了。

然后我习惯大声读一遍课文，为的是增强语感，“文章硬如铁，读来满口血”，文章不读一次，就感觉嘴巴都硬了。读完之后，就借助参考书，逐字逐句的啃课文。主要包括词汇的意思和用法，句子的语法和逻辑结构(这是最重要的!)，以及一些时代背景，名人名言等等。为什么要强调语法和逻辑结构呢?我们以第五册第一课第一句话为例：it is probably easier for teachers than for students to appreciate the reasons why learning English seems to become incresingly difficult once the basic st ructures and patterns of the language have been understood.一句话就占据了3行，而且结构复杂冗长，没有过硬的分析能力，考试时就会手忙脚乱了。所以这一步虽然很烦也很枯燥，但却是必不可少的。我在复习过程中在这一步耗时最多，基本上一天看一课，课后的练习因为时间关系基本没有做，精力都在阅读上了。3册课本共30篇，去掉几篇小说还剩20多篇，一个月基本能看完。这是复习的第一阶段。

第二阶段主要是巩固和提高，每天我固定抽出半个小时读课文，先大声读一遍，培养语感和锻炼发音，读的过程基本不知道课文在说什么，看到的只是一个个的单词，见树不见林。第二遍是默读，读完一句话，仔细地分析它的结构，搞清楚每个成分之间的内在联系，既见树又见林。这一阶段还要进入实战练习，市面上关于 pets的辅导书多如牛毛，可惜质量实在不敢恭维。见过一本王长喜主编的模拟书，里面错误百出，可谓误人子弟。我一直认为，最好的辅导书就是历年真题，可惜pets 5的真题概不流出，所以那些所谓的辅导书就不必太当真了，他们唯一的用处就是让你熟悉考试会有哪些题型。如果真的想做练习，可以拿6级或考研的历年真题来做。

考试前一天睡的不好，八点来到考场，结果几乎到九点半才开考。

第一部分是听力，又分3 part. part1是对话，part2是段子，都是听完后选一个答案。part3是填空，一段话放3遍，要求填补文中抽去的词或短语。个人觉得难度和6级差不多，有些地方稍微快一些。

第二部分是语法填空，一篇文章里面抽掉了若干个词，要求补完(没有选项，不像完型填空!)。这部分一半靠语感，1/3靠语法逻辑，其余靠上下文语境。为什么要强调语感呢?

其实靠逻辑也可以做出来，但需要时间，而考试最缺的就是时间，所以要靠平时多读，凭借语感当机立断。这部分每空只有0.5分，所以千万不要花太多时间，做不出的就放弃，当然也不要乱选，毕竟0.5分也是分，要做到又快又准。

第三部分是大头：阅读，5篇文章，每篇约800词。对阅读的难度一定要有充分认识：把你能想象的最大难度放大十倍，就差不多了(当然对于牛人这句话不适用)。每篇只能看一遍文章就去做题(做的过程可以回头寻找文中的细节)。我就在这方面犯错误了，有一篇文章看了两遍才做，最后就不够时间了。

第四部分是排序，一篇长文章抽去了几段，要从选项中把正确的段落补回去。这种题型对大家比较陌生，而且做到这里，脑子也比较混乱或者转不动了，我也提不出什么好办法，虽然每题有2分。

最后是快速阅读，有3篇文章，每篇800词，10道选择题，都是考文章的细节，难度很小，关键是阅读速度要快。以上是第一卷，到时间后监考人员收卷，再发第二卷作文，这次的作文题目是“多设立职业高中还是普通高中?”，个人觉得pets的作文题目都怪怪的，似乎与4，6级差得比较大，不好写。

中午在广外休息一下，回来教室干坐着等考官叫名。也可以利用这段时间和

partner练习一下口语。我和中大附属3院的一个外科gg医生一起考，该gg已经考过一次了，他说口语一般不为难人，关键还是笔试。事实证明了他的话。笔试时先自我介绍，然后各取一个topic进行讨论，再就某个话题共同讨论，我觉得自己发挥很差，能拿到满分5分实在是出乎意料之外，可能是我的发音比较好吧。

最后提出总结几点吧：

1.对pets难度要有充分认识

2.熟悉题型，每部分的应对策略和时间要了然于心

3.考试时间非常紧张，想回头检查基本是不可能的，所以懂的就要在尽可能短的时间里完成，不懂的要学会放弃。考试前一天晚上要休息好，考试那天中午也要尽可能休息好

4.记得带水和食物进考场，考试需要非常充沛的体力。

5.阅读部分是最重要的

Part Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension (40 points)

Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or incomplete statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice, and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage One

The British policeman has several nicknames, but the most frequently used are “copper” and “bobby”. The first name comes from the verb “cop” meaning “to take”, and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel, a 19th century politician, who was the founder of the police force. An early nickname for the policeman was “peeler”, but this name had died out.

Visitors to England seem, nearly always, to be very impressed by the English police. In fact, it has become a joke that visitors to Britain, when asked for his opinions of the country, will always say, “I think your policemen are wonderful.”

Well, the British bobby may not always be wonderful but he is usually a very friendly and helpful person.

A music-hall song of some years ago was called “If you want to know the time, ask a policeman.” Nowadays, most people own watches but they still seem to find plenty of other questions to ask the policemen. In London, the policemen spend so much of their time directing visitors about the city that one wonders how they ever find time to do anything else. 41. The British policeman has nicknames mentioned in the passage.

A. two B. three C. several D. many 42. The main idea of the second paragraph is that .

A. visitors to Britain are very thankful to the policemen for their help

B. the British policemen tell the visitors the views of their country

C. visitors to England think the British policemen are wonderful

D. the English policemen have become a joke to the visitors

43. “If you want to know the time, ask a policeman.” This means .

A. the British policeman knows the time correctly

B. the British policeman likes to tell the time to the visitors

C. most people’s watches don’t go well

D. the policemen are friendly and helpful

44. What’s the attitude of the British people towards the policemen?

A. They respect them very much.

B. They don’t respect them at all.

C. They think the policemen are friendly and helpful.

D. They don’t like them. 45. From the whole passage, we know that .

A. the British policemen spend a lot of time directing the visitors to London

B. the British policemen’s nicknames may not be wonderful

C. the British policemen can’t find any time to do anything else but help the visitors all day

D. the British policemen’s nicknames have died out

Passage Two

Some people believe that you have to be a special kind of people to sell a product. But although it is clear that a successful salesman does need special talents and an open personality, many of the skills he uses are used by us all.

We build and keep relationships with different kinds of people, we listen to and take note of what they tell us and don’t just enjoy the sound of our own voices, and we explain things to them or discuss ideas with them.

In the same way, any company needs to establish a personal relationship with its major clients and potential customers. It is often said that “people do business with people”: a firm doesn’t just deal impersonally(没有人情味地) with another firm. A person in the buying department regularly receives personal visits from people representing the firm’s suppliers（供应商）—or in the case of department stores of chain stores, a team of buyers may travel around visiting their suppliers.

Keeping sales people“on the road”is much more expensive than employing them to work in the office. Much of the sales people’s time is spent unproductively traveling. Telephone selling may use this time more productivity, but a face-to-face meeting and discussion is much more effective. Companies involved in the export trade often have a separate export sales force. Its travel and accommodation expenses may be very high. As a result, servicing overseas customers may often be done by phone, telex(电传) or letter, and personal visits may be less often. Many firms appoint an overseas agent or distributor（分销商) whose own sales force takes over the responsibility for selling their products in another country. 46. According to the passage, to be a successful salesman, one .

A. doesn’t need any talent

B. needs to go out every day

C. should listen to his boss

D. should be able to work with different kinds of people

47. In the third paragraph, “potential customers” refers to people who .

A. are likely to buy your products

B. are already important clients of your firm

C. are not willing to buy your products

D. are not interested in your products

48. The phrase “on the road” in the last paragraph can be best replaced by .

A. traveling B. relaxing C. playing D. sightseeing

49. The passage indicates that some companies use telephone selling because .

A. they have too many sales people

B. their sales people don’t like traveling

C. it saves time

D. it is more polite 50. The last paragraph says that an overseas agent of a company is responsible for .

A. training local sales people

B. protecting local customers

C. holding regular sales conferences

D. selling its products in the local area

Passage Three

In April 1985, the management of the Coca-Cola Company announced its decision to change the flavor of the company’s flagship brand. This decision was made based on the fact that Pepsi consumer research discovered in blind taste tests that a majority of consumers preferred the taste of Pepsi to that of Coke. The “Pepsi Challenge” campaign made this public knowledge and Coke executives quickly moved to change American’s top brand. New Coke came in a new can, with updated red and silver graphics replacing the traditional red and white look. Although taste tests of the New Coke had shown that a majority of those tested preferred the new product, these tests could not gauge (评估) the emotional appeal of the “old” Coke. In other words, consumers want their cake and eat it too. A large public cried one after another during the 79 days when “old” Coke was no longer on the shelves. Coca-Cola quickly reintroduced the “old” Coke when they realized market share was falling and named it Classic Coke. Volume for the classic brand has risen 24 percent since 1984, making it the No.1 soft drink in the land since 1987. Consumers became even more loyal to the brand after it was temporarily taken away from them.

51. What do you think is the best title for this passage?

A. Consumers’ Loyalty to the Old Coke Brand

B. Competition between Coca-Cola and Pepsi

C. New Coke—A Lesson in Brand Loyalty

D. Always Coca-cola

52. Why did Coca-Cola Company decide to change the flavor of the company’s flagship brand?

A. Because it’s in their plan.

B. Because of consumers’ preference.

C. Because of the competition brought by Pepsi Company, the “Pepsi Challenge” campaign.

D. Because the management don’t want to keep that brand anymore.

53. What is the New Coke like?

A. It is a traditional can.

B. It is a new can, with updated red and silver graphics.

C. It has a red and white look.

D. The New Coke can is blue. 54. From this passage we can infer that .

A. A Pepsi consumer research shows that a majority of consumers preferred the taste of Pepsi to that of Coke.

B. In Coke’s test, the majority of those tested preferred the old coke.

C. New Coke has more loyal consumers than the old one.

D. New Coke sells better than the old coke.

55. From when did Coca-cola become America’s No.1 soft drink?

A. Since 1984 B. Since 1985 C. Since 1987 D. Since 1989

Passage Four

There are two kinds of memory: short-term and long-term. Information in long-term memory can be remembered at a later time when it is needed. The information may be kept for days or weeks. However, information in short-term memory is kept for only a few seconds, usually by repeating the information over and over. The following experiment shows how short-term memory has been studied.

Henning studied how students who are learning English as a second language remember vocabulary. The subjects in his experiment were 75 college students. They represented all levels of ability in English: beginning, intermediate, and native-speaking students.

To begin with, the subjects listened to a recording of a native speaker reading a paragraph in English. Following the recording, the subjects took a 15-question test to see which words they remembered. Each question had four choices. The subjects had to circle the word they had heard in the recording. Some of the questions had four choices that sound alike. For example, weather, whether, wither, and wetter are four words that sound alike. Some of the questions had four choices that have the same meaning. Method, way, manner, and system would be four words with the same meaning. Finally the subjects took a language proficiency test.

Henning found that students with a lower proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that sound alike; students with a higher proficiency in English made more of their mistakes on words that have the same meaning. Henning’s results suggest that beginning students hold the sound of words in their short-term memory, and advanced students hold the meaning of words in their short-term memory. 56. Henning made the experiment in order to study .

A. how students remember English vocabulary by short-term memory

B. how students learn English vocabulary

C. how to develop students’ability in English

D. how long information in short-term memory is kept

57. Which of the following statements is TURE according to the passage?

A. Information in short-term memory is different from that in long-term memory.

B. Long-term memory can be achieved only by training.

C. It is easier to test short-term memory than long-term memory.

D. Henning gave a separate test on vocabulary to his students.

58. From Henning’s result we can see that .

A. beginners have difficulty distinguishing the pronunciation of words

B. advanced students remember words by their meaning

C. it is difficult to remember words that sound alike

D. it is difficult to remember words that have the same meaning

59. The word “subject” in the passage means .

A. memory

B. the theme of listening material

C. a branch of knowledge studied

D. the student experimented on 60. The passage centers on .

A. memory B. two kinds of memory

C. short-term memory D. an experiment on students

Part Ⅲ. Cloze(20 points)

My work keeps me in Hong Kong most of the year, but I do try to get 61 for a month in 62 —usually July, now as you probably know that’s the main

63 season in Europe, the favourite places for holiday and the famous cities are usually very 64 .

But I’m not seeking the sun—I get plenty of 65 in Hong Kong—and I’m certainly not seeking the 66 ! So when I go on holiday I buy a Train Pass(a sort of train ticket) that 67 me first class travel on most of the 68 of western Europe.

First class compartments(车厢) are 69 crowded and they are very comfortable.

If you’re going on an overnight 70 you can take a sleeping train for some extra money. There are usually dining cars in the train. I find that 71 travel is restful and 72 . There’s always something to see. I particularly enjoy 73 through Switzerland and Italy. You can get a very good 74 of what a country is like from a train; you don’t go too fast and you stop quite often. 75 rail travel is very safe and I am never sick on a train 76 I am on a ship! Then there are always people to 77 if you feel like a chat. The 78 that I seldom travel by plane is quite simple, as train stations are usually built in the city centre, I don’t have to 79 transport; transport can be a problem when arriving by 80 .

Part Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension (40 points)

Passage One

The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify them.

One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline. 41. A small population may mean _ .

A. higher productivity, and a lower average income

B. lower productivity, but a higher average income

C. lower productivity and a lower average income

D. higher productivity and a higher average income 42. According to the passage, a large population will provide a chance for developing .

A. agriculture B. transport system

C. industry D. national economy

43. According to the passage, slowly rising birthrate perhaps is good for .

A. a developing nation

B. a developed nation

C. every nation with a big population

D. every nation with a small population 44. In a developed country, people will perhaps go out of work if the birth rate .

A. goes up B. goes down C. remains stable D. is out of control

45. It is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world because . 11

A. there are too many underdeveloped countries in the world

B. underdeveloped countries have low level of industrial development

C. different governments have different views of the question

D. even developed countries may have complex problems

Passage Two

Today a pilot is totally dependent on what the air traffic controller on the ground tells him. He can’t see enough to be safe. Flight watch is an instrument intended to help him.

On a screen in front of the pilot. There will be a map of the airspace around the plane. The pilot’s own flight level or height and his own plane at the center of the screen will show up. On the map any other planes in the airspace will appear as blobs of light with “tails” showing the direction of their flight. The Flight watch map is unusual, for the other planes are not shown at their true ranges, but at their distances away in flying time. That gets over the problem of fast planes being too far away to be seen but likely to make contact in seconds and slow planes that are close enough to be seen but so slow that there’s no chance of contact for, say, ten minutes.

The pilot will be able to see on the screen whether another plane’s course conflicts with his own. The screen will show him the flight number of the other plane, so he can contact air traffic control and ask them about the other plane’s course. Then he can take avoiding action if necessary. The screen will show him whether his action puts him in danger from yet another aircraft.

Technically, the system will be quite complex. Computers will be necessary on the ground and in each aircraft to enable Flight watch to collect data about the planes’ courses and to calculate the distances between planes. But such small computers are now quite cheap, simple and reliable.

46. For his safe flight, what is a pilot dependent on?

A. Flight watch.

B. The air traffic controller in the plane.

C. The command of the air traffic controller on the ground.

D. The pilot himself.

47. Which of the following can help the pilot to keep contact with the air traffic controller?

A. The screen. B. A computer.

C. The passage doesn’t mention it. D. Flight watch. 48. The Flight watch is to use.

A. quite complex B. quite simple

C. expensive D. cheap 49. The main parts of the Flight watch are .

A. computers B. a screen and certain computers

C. blobs and tails D. a Flight watch map and small computers 50. The computers are .

A. small B. neither large nor small

C. large D. not mentioned

Passage Three

Are you carrying too much on your back at school? I’m sure lots of children of your age will say “Yes”. Not only the students in China have this problem, but children in the United States also have heavy schoolbags.

Doctors are starting to worry that younger students are having back and neck problems as a result of schoolbags being too heavy for them.

“It’s hard for me to go upstairs with my bag because it’s so heavy,” said Rick Hammond, an 11-year-old student in the US.

Rick is among students who have common schoolbags with two straps to carry them, but many other students choose rolling (有滚轮的) bags.

But even with rolling bags, getting up stairs and buses is still a problem for children. Many of them have hurt their backs and necks because of the heavy schoolbags.

But how much is too much? Doctors say students should carry no more than 10% to 15% of their own body weight.

Scott Smith, a back doctor, said children under Grade 4 should stay with 10%. But it is also important that older children don’t stay with over 15%, because their bodies are still growing. “Children are losing balance and falling down with their schoolbags,” he said.

Parents and teachers are starting to tell children to only take home library books they will be reading that night. Some teachers are using pieces of paper or thin workbooks for students to take home.

One of the best answers is, as some children said, to have no homework at all! 51. From the passage we can know that .

A. only children in China carry too heavy schoolbags

B. children in other countries don’t carry too heavy schoolbags

C. both children in China and the US carry too heavy schoolbags

D. only children in the US carry too heavy schoolbags 52. Children feel it hard for them to go upstairs because .

A. they are too young

B. their schoolbags are too heavy

C. they don’t know how to go upstairs

D. their parents don’t always go upstairs with them together 53. If a child carries a heavy schoolbag, .

A. his back and neck will be hurt

B. his head and arms will be hurt

C. his hands will be hurt

D. his feet will be hurt

54. According to the doctor, Scott Smith, if a child in Grade 5 weighs about 30 kilos, the schoolbag he carries should not be over .

A. 5 kilos B. 3 kilos C. 5.5 kilos D. 4.5 kilos 55. Some students think the best answer to this problem is that .

A. they should have a little homework to do after they get home

B. their teachers had better not ask them to do any homework

C. they should only take home literary books they will read that night

D. they should use thin workbooks instead of thick ones

Passage Four

First aid（急救） is the care given to the injured or sick as soon as possible after an accident or illness. It is this immediate care and attention before the arrival of the ambulance (救护车) that sometimes means the difference between life and death, or a full or partial recovery.

First aid has limitations, as not everybody is a doctor or expert, but it is a key element of the total medical system.

The principle to be adopted in first aid is immediate action. By-standers (旁观者) or relatives not knowing what to do, or being too fearful to try, have unwisely contributed to unnecessary deaths and worse 13

injuries.

It is important that any action taken by the first aid provider is started as quickly as possible. Quick action is necessary to save life and parts of the body. One who is not breathing effectively, or is bleeding(流血) heavily, requires immediate help. If quick effective first aid is provided, then they have a much better chance of a good recovery.

But it should be remembered that any action taken is to be most careful, and fright (恐惧) by the first aid provider and by-standers will not be good to the whole thing. Try to remain calm and think your action through. A calm and controlled first aider will give everyone confidence that the event is being handled efficiently and effectively.

56. The writer seems to suggest that if you don’t know much about first aid, you should .

A. call for help from professionals B. still try to help

C. stand by and not try to help D. learn it from a doctor 57. According to the passage, some injured or sick people died as a result of .

A. other people’s hesitation to offer first aid

B. unprofessional first aid

C. unnecessary first aid

D. unwise suggestions by by-standers

58. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. One should not apply first aid to the injured without knowing the cause of the accident.

B. It is easy to carry out first aid if one has the necessary facilities.

C. First aid is an important part of the whole treatment.

D. First aid may not be effective before a doctor or expert comes. 59. The most important thing in providing first aid is to .

A. call for an ambulance B. prevent bleeding

C. know what to do D. act quickly 60. While offering first aid, the helper should .

A. be self-controlled B. have others to assist him

C. have confidence in the sick person D. get rid of the by-standers

A desert is a land 61 plants, animals, and people cannot get all the water they need because the climate is 62 too dry or too cold. 63 deserts have 64 than 10 inches of rainfall a year.

Perhaps the use of atomic power will make 14

desalinization less expensive in the future. Some people believe that man will one day be able to 78 the climate and produce rainfall over the desert when it is wanted. This would be a simple 79 to the water problem, but we 80 much more about the atmosphere before that will be possible.

How to Own a Book

After you have established the property right of a book by purchasing it, what are you going to do with it? Put it away on your bookshelf just as an ornament showing how learned you are, or digest it as a part of yourself? Buying is only the prelude to possession.

But you may ask how to own a book. In the first place, you should read it. A book can’t be a book if you decline to read it. You can’t get anything if you let the book lie on the shelf for years. However, reading is not enough. You read books, but it doesn’t follow that you will become smarter and advance faster. If you solely absorb what you have read, you’ll only be a bookworm. On the contrary, if you apply the book’s knowledge to practice, you will find its merits or defects, you may correct it, use it and even popularize it.

So, whenever you come across a book, please both read it and apply it. Then you really own a book.

A teacher should not be too hard on his students. Frequent harsh and demanding words may discourage the students from giving and answering questions, interacting and even attending classes. One the other hand, too much freedom and let-alone time may give rise to no concept of discipline, unfinished homework and poor study performance on exams. Therefore, the teacher must keep away from the other extreme.

The greatest gift a teacher can bestow the students is an awakening of a passion for learning. So a teacher should be enthusiastic, encouraging and helpful, and he should motivate his students to want to learn and form a right attitude toward study. He must make them see study as a joyful thing but not a burden and encourage them to work for the whole society when they graduate.

Teachers’ care and love for students is selfish. They not only input the innocent hearts knowledge, but also help to shape character. Students should have great respect for their teachers and be polite inside and outside class. The biggest thing students can do for their teachers as respect may be to serve all the people heart and soul with knowledge from classes.
