The term “flying saucer”refers to strange objects travelling through the earth�s atmosphere at very high speeds.Thousands of people all over the world claim to have seen them.Some believe them to be spaceships from other planets.Others insist that they are a secret type of aircraft being built on earth.Many people maintain that they are only natural phenomena happening under special temperature,light,or weather conditions All reports,however,agree that the strange objects move at extremely high speeds and fail to follow the laws of motion by reversing(逆转) direction instantly without slowing down. In the United States,the first flying saucers were reported on June 4,1947,by a private plane pilot.He saw nine objects travelling in the sky.Each was disk�shaped and very bright.Because their movements were compared to those of a “saucer skimming across the water”, newspaper reporters called them “flying saucers”. Some weeks after the first reported sighting,the United States Air Force was given the job of investigating all the reports of flying saucers.Because of the confusing variety of shapes,sizes,and colors reported,the Air Force adopted the term Unidentified Flying Objects(UFO) to describe them. Since the Air Force officials began their investigation of flying saucers,they have identified most of the objects as stars,planes,man�made satellites,experimental missiles(导弹),or weather phenomena.Some of the UFO reports,including photographs,were deliberate(蓄意的)tricks made to cheat people. All the research so far has failed to prove that UFOs are spaceships coming from outside the earth.Most investigators agree,however,that more study is needed before the question of whether or not flying saucers really exist can be answered.21�The term“flying saucer” is generally used to refer to.A�spaceships from other planetsB�a secret type of aircraft being builtC�some natural phenomenaD�strange objects flying very fast in the sky【】22�The first flying saucers got their name.A�from a private plane pilot who saw themB�for their brightness in colorC�because they looked like disks moving in the airD�because they skimmed across the water【】23�The Air Force preferred the term UFO because.A�newspaper reporters used itB�the term “flying saucer” was very confusingC�UFO is a general term that can refer to a larger variety of objectsD�the Air Force didn�t find any objects that looked like flying saucers【】24�All the research has failed to identify any UFOs as.A�man�made satellitesB�aircraftC�experimental missilesD�spaceships sent from other planets【】25�From this passage we know that.A�the US Air Force was the first reporter of flying saucersB�the term UFO was first used by the US Air Force investigatorsC�UFOs are not worth further investigationD�the question of whether there exist flying saucers has already been answered 【】Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. The American educator Horace Mann once said:“As an apple is not in any proper sense an apple until it is ripe,so a human being is not in any proper sense a human being until he is educated.”Education is the process through which man attempts to pass on to his children his hard�won wisdom and his ideals of a better world.This process begins shortly after birth,as parents seek to train the infant to behave as his culture demands.Schooling,or formal education,consists of experiences that are carefully planned to help young people learn what adults consider important for them to know and how they should respond to choices. While almost everyone accepts the goal of developing skills in the three R�s—reading,writing and arithmetic—it often seems impossible to reach agreement on any goal beyond that.In the broadest terms,the conflict over educational goals can be viewed as a conflict between two groups of people—conservatives and liberals(自由派). The conservatives tend to identify a desirable education with the transmission of the cultural knowledge,offering courses featuring the three R�s at the elementary level and academic(普通文化课的)studies or strong vocational(职业的)or business courses in the secondary school.They stress training of the mind and development of abilities. The liberals tend to be interested in the development of the “whole child,”not merely in training his mind or in preparing him for adult life in a remote future.They emphasize rich,meaningful school living in the present,and they view subject matter as a resource for total human development rather than as a goal in itself.They believe that content should be acquired not for its own sake but as a means of encouraging thought and inquiry.26�What Horace Mann means is that.A�education is essential for man�s growthB�an apple is delicious only when it is ripeC�a man is like a child without proper educationD�education can be compared to the growth of an apple tree【】27�At school,children.A�find it hard to win wisdomB�have choices in what they learnC�are taught what adults select for them to learnD�learn how they should respond to teachers� questions【】28�The three R�s does not include.A�arithmeticB�writingC�readingD�reasoning【】29�It�s most unlikely that the conservatives should emphasize.A�the teaching of basic cultural knowledgeB�courses in three R�s in the elementary schoolC�courses such as modern physics and marketing at the secondary levelD�the development of the student as an individual person【】30�The liberals hold that.A�the goal of school education is mainly to prepare students for adult lifeB�teaching activities should be rich and meaningful to the studentsC�course content should be learned and remembered for future useD�book knowledge is the only resource for learning【】Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. It has been a wide�spread belief that the American family is dying.But a new study reveals that the American family is stronger than ever.This study affords surprising evidence of the persistence of American commitments to family life. The American family is changing,not dying:It is becoming smaller,men and women are becoming more equal,and the divorce rate is higher.But despite the high divorce rate,marriage has never been more popular.The majority of divorced people remarry,but only 2% marry more than twice.Most marriages last a long time,and a large proportion of divorces are from teenage marriages.Depending on the specific situation,there�s often good reason for teenage marriages to break up. There is no evidence that children receive less attention from mothers who work outside the home than from mothers working inside the home.So far the amount of educational or development time hasn�t varied very much,whether or not the mother works outside the home.In fact,working mothers try to make up for it by setting aside time only for their children. The study shows that television is by far the most significant new child�care arrangement of this century.The most important activity for children up to age 14 is watching television. School is the second most time�consuming activity for children.They spend an average of about 19 hours a week in school.A larger proportion of children go to school now than ever before,and they stay in school longer.Another big change is that the proportion of very young children in day�care centers(日托站) has almost doubled in recent years.Compared with these two dramatic changes in child activity,the changes caused by mothers working outside the home appear very small.31�The main idea of this article is that.A�the American family is dyingB�young people today don�t want to get marriedC�the American family is changing,but it is stronger than everD�education has resulted in dramatic changes in the American family【】32�Which of the following statements is NOT true?A�Marriage is more popular than before.B�Many divorced people remarry.C�The majority of marriages last long.D�Working mothers devote less time to their children.【】33�The author of this article believes that.A�the American family is here to stayB�children should not watch so much televisionC�mothers should not work when their children are smallD�teenage marriages should be encouraged【】34�What is the most significant new child�care arrangement of this century?A�The day�care center.B�Television.C�The schoolD�Development time.【】35�According to the writer,which two major factors have led to the belief that the American family is dying?A�The divorce rate is high and working mothers neglect their children.B�The divorce rate is high and children care more about television than anything else.C�Divorces are becoming increasingly more and many teenage marriages break up.D�Children stay in school longer and mothers have little time to take care of them.【】PART TWOⅣ.Word Spelling(10 points,1 point for two words)将下列汉语单词译成英语。作为提示，每个单词的词类、首字母及字母数目均已给出。请将完整的单词写在答题纸上。36�表扬 v.p 37�橡皮n.r 38�表面n.s 39�厚的a.t 40�蒸汽n.s 41�权力n.p 42�噪声n.n 43�第九num.n 44�大声的a.l 45�方法n.m 46�羞耻n.s 47�紧张n.t 48�非法的a.l 49�运气n.l 50�中间的a.m 51�严重的a.s 52�财富n.w 53�浅的a.s 54�信号n.s 55�胜利n.v Ⅴ.Word Form(10 points,1 point for each)将括号中的各词变为适当的形式填入空白。答案写在答题纸上。56�Many people feel that the United States(have) a very complicated tax collection system.57�In 1964,the Olympic Games in Tokyo(become) the first program to be transmitted via satellite.58�In the recent past,medical researchers(begin) to emphasize the fact that heart diseases are associated with stress,smoking and a lack of exercise.59�Taxes consist of the money which people pay(support) their government.60�For centuries the Atlantic Ocean kept the Americas from(discover) by the people of Europe.61�The American consumer often feels constantly(disturb) by insurance agents.62�Women tend to engage in more eye contact than men,especially when(talk) to other women.63�Though marriage(practice) in almost all countries of the world,the customs are quite different from one culture to another.64�No one has been able to prove that fish is any(good) for the brain than many other kinds of food.65�If we did not have atmospheric pressure,we(can,not have) automobile tires.Ⅵ.Translation from Chinese into English (15 points,3 points for each)将下列各句译成英语并将答案写在答题纸上。66�人所共知，大西洋仅有太平洋一半大。67�人们可以在电视里观看他们想看的任何电影。 68�在过去几年里你在保险上花了多少钱？69�为了不被人误解，你应当认识肢体语言与文化关系密切。70�直至14世纪较精确的地图才开始出现。Ⅶ�Translation from English into Chinese (15 points)将下列短文译成汉语并将答案写在答题纸上。 While the quantity of food needed by the body is measured by the amount of energy,or calories,it has,the quality of food is determined by its nutrients.Nutrients are the substances in food that are needed by your body.You can consume enough soft drinks,bread,and potatoes to supply you with enough calories for the energy you need.But these foods will not supply you with all the necessary nutrients your body needs in order to function well. It is believed that there are forty�five nutrients needed by the human body.It is essential that each of them be present in various amounts in a good diet.Each nutrient is responsible for performing a special body function.2003年下半年高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试英语(一)试卷完全详解Ⅰ.Vocabulary and Structure1�【analysis】句中意思为美国人每周有一天的工作是为付高额税的， 因而为目的状语，应用一般式的主动形式。 【key】选D.to pay。2�【analysis】这后半句为强调主语的强调句，意思为这部分最吸引注意， 故应选B�attracts吸引；而A�attacks攻击；C�attaches依附；D�attributes引起，都不对。 【key】选B�attracts。3�【analysis】全句意思为“对你没有任何意义的信息是难以记忆的”。 应为C�sense意义；而trouble苦恼，way方式，mistake错误，都不符合。 【key】选C�sense。4�【analysis】后部分为定语从句说明supermarkets超市，即为场所， 应用D�where。 【key】选D�where。5�【analysis】 以as引出的状语从句，可以把表语提到主语前面来，如Cold as the weather was,it couldn�t cool our enthusiasm for work.故本句应选A�as。 【key】选A�as。6�【analysis】全句意思为“钻石是自然中所发现的最硬的物质”。 应选C�substance物质；而instance实例，circumstance（通常作复数）环境，existence存在，都不合适。 【key】选C�substance。7�【analysis】 数字后说明高应用形容词high,如The house is ten meters high。 【key】选A�high。8�【analysis】句子含意“好奇心与想像力是重要的品性”， 品性或品质为quality, 而technique技巧，technology工程学，quantity重量，数量都不合适。 【key】选C�qualities。9�【analysis】句子意思为“长期记忆的信息在以后需要的时候能记起来。” 应为D�recalled记起；而A�remark评论；B�remined sb.of sb./sth.使某人回想起来某人；C�removed移开；因句中无of结构，故应为D。 【key】选D�recalled。10�【analysis】be of help有帮助，为习惯用语。 【key】选B�of。Ⅱ�Cloze Test11～12【analysis】句意为“你的心理的或感情的，思想上的需要是重要的。你需要去爱和接受爱。” 11�C�psychological心理的；12�A�to be loved被爱。【key】11�选C；12�选A。13～14【analysis】句意为“你需要感到平安和无忧虑。同时，你需要能自立，你需要激励和多姿多彩以保持大脑活跃和实现个人成熟”。【key】13�选D�independent自立；14�选C�active活跃。15～16【analysis】句意为“你也需要有理性，个人特性，为了了解你自己和你如何适应环境”。【key】15�选A�self;16�选B�who。17～19【analysis】句意为“在所有的感情需要中，爱的需要是最基本的。一生中的不同时段，你会经历不同方式的爱的需要。例如，不能自立的婴儿感到关心的爱护”。【key】17�选C�most最；18�选D�Forexample例如；19�选A�response,in～to应…而。20【analysis】句意为“轻柔触摸和坚定保护能使婴儿对照顾他的人产生信任感”。【key】选B�in。Ⅲ.Reading Comprehension21 【analysis】全文意思为“飞碟指地球上空高速飞行的奇异物体，1947年6月4日美国私人飞机驾驶员，看到天空九个碟形物盘旋，因此报上称之为飞碟，因形状不一，所以美国空军称之为不明飞行物”。21题应为D，即飞碟一般用于指空中飞速快的奇怪物体，即D。 【key】选D.22 【analysis】题意为“最初飞碟名称来自看来如空中运动的碟似物”。 【key】选C.23 【analysis】“空军用不明飞行物是因为这个术语能指代种类较多的物体”。 【key】选C.24 【analysis】“关于从其他行星过来的宇宙飞船的辨认的研究全失败了”。 【key】选D.25 【analysis】“从本文我们知道美国空军研究人员首先用了不明飞行物的术语”。 【key】选B.26【analysis】第二篇阅读理解文章含意为“教育是从出生开始，经学校正规教育，使之学会成人认为重要的经验，即三种技巧——阅读，写作与算术。教育的目标分为保守派与自由派。保守派为传播文化知识，提供三种技巧的文化课与职业专业课，强调思想训练和能力培养。自由派强调当前丰富的有意义的学校生活而且把课程看作全人类发展的才能而不仅是目标的本身”。26题Horace Mann的意思是“教育对人们的成长是必要的”【key】选A.27 【analysis】“在校内，孩子们按大人们为他们所选的教材教学”。 【key】选C.28 【analysis】三R并不包括“推理”。 【key】选D.29 【analysis】“保守派极可能强调学生作为个人培养”。 【key】选D.30 【analysis】自由派认为“教学活动应对学生是富有意义的”。 【key】选B.31 【analysis】第三篇意义为“广泛的信念为美国家庭正在消失，而新的研究揭示美国家庭比以前更牢固了。是正在变化，而并不消亡，是更小了，男女更平等了而离婚率更高了。没有证据说明在家外工作的母亲比在家内干活的对孩子们较少关心。不管是否母亲在家外工作，对孩子的教育培养并无太多的变动。孩子在14岁前最重要的活动是观看电视，而学校成为其次花费时间的活动”。 31题这篇文章主题思想为“美国家庭正在变化，但比以前更牢固了”。 【key】选C.32 【analysis】以下叙述哪点是不正确的？ 应为D�劳动妇女更少时间专心于孩子了。 【key】选D.33 【analysis】本文作者相信， 应为A�美国家庭仍稳固着。 【key】选A.34 【analysis】本世纪新的孩子照料的安排最有影响的是什么？ 应为B.电视。 【key】选B.35 【analysis】按照作者，哪两种主要因素导致美国家庭正在消亡的信念？ 应为A�离婚率高和劳动妇女忽视他们的孩子。 【key】选A.Ⅳ�Word Spelling36 【analysis】表扬 v.p 。 【key】praise37 【analysis】橡皮n.r , 来自rub v.擦。 【key】rubber38 【analysis】表面n.s , sur�超过+face面。 【key】surface39 【analysis

2017全国英语等级考试三级阅读真题及译文答案
导语：阅读理解是公共英语当中对考生来说比较难的一个题目，因为选项当中有很多迷惑人的答案，下面是我提供的2017全国英语等级考试三级阅读真题及译文答案，大家先练练手吧!
Today there are three different kinds of New Yorkers: the people who act as if they were born here; the people who are here and wish to be elsewhere; and the collection of virtual New Yorkers all over the world, who wish they were hying in New York. These are the three States of mind and what they have in common are longing and illusion. In fact, it' s a city of dreamers.
What makes New York special? New Yorkers are convinced of its speciainess--but Toronto is more diverse, London is larger, Washington is more powerful. So why does New York think it' s the capital of the world?
People often explain the problems in European cities by citing inequality. But New York today is one of the most unequal cities in America. In 2010, 1 percent of New Yorkers earned 45 percent of its income. That works out to an average of $ 3.7 million a year for the city' s top 34,500 households. The average daily income of this group is greater than the average annual income of the city's bottom 10 percent.
So why would people still come to try their luck in this tough place? Is it opportunity or illu- sion that draws them?
They come because any newcomer can find a place in the hierarchy of New York. If you look at a New York City restaurant, for example, the cook might be French, the people washing dishes might be Mexican, the hostess might be Russian, the owner might be British. They arc not all equal. They earn different rates. But they work together to get food to hungry people.
What New York demonstrates is this: immigration works. The city can use its immigrants, even the illegal ones. Though they broke the law by illegally crossing the borders, the city' s econ- omy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported. Attracted here by the founding myth of the city, each immigrant is seeking to escape from history, personal and political. For him, New York is the city of the second chance.
46. The writer mentions the three kinds of New Yorkers to stress that_______
A. they share the same longingB. they are in pursuit of dreams
C. they are proud of their birthplace D. they wish to live in another place
47. In the eyes of New Yorkers, their city is_______
A. powerful
B. diverse
C. special
D. large
48. The figures in paragraph 3 are given to show that New York_______
A. favors the lucky
B. favors tue locals
C. is a city of inequality
D. is a city of opportunities
49. People keep coming to New York because they can find jobs that_______
A. challenge them
B. suit them well
C. pay them well
D. raise their status
50. It is hnplied in the text that New York is_______
A. a tolerant city
B. a wealthy city
C. a mythical city
D. a historical city
译文
当今有三种不同类型的纽约人：第一种表现得好像他们生来就在纽约;第二种虽然在纽约却希望生活在别处;第三种是来自世界各地的一群希望生活在纽约的虚拟纽约人。这是三种不同的心态，其共同点是憧憬和幻想。事实上，这是一座梦想家的城市。
是什么使得纽约与众不同?纽约人确信纽约是独一无二的—但是多伦多更加多元化，伦敦更大，华盛顿更有权势。那么，为什么纽约认为自己是世界之都呢?人们常常说欧洲的城市问题是不平等。但是当今的纽约是美国最不平等的城市之一。2010年，l%的纽约人的收入占到全纽约的45%。这意味着这个城市最有钱的34，500个家庭的平均年收入是370万美元。这个群体平均日收入要多于这个城市最贫穷的l0%的人的平均年收入。那么，为什么仍然有人愿意到这样一个不平等的地方来碰运气呢?吸引他们来到这里的是机会还是幻觉?他们来到这里是因为任何新来者都可以在纽约的不同层级中找到自己的位置。例如，你随便看一家纽约的饭店，他们的厨师可能是法国人，洗盘子的可能是墨西哥人，女服务员可能是俄罗斯人，店主人可能是英国人。他们并不完全平等。他们赚得不同的收入。但是他们一起工作把食物提供给饥饿的人们。纽约向我们展示的是：移民很有用。这座城市利用它的移民，甚至非法移民。虽然他们非法跨越边境破坏了法律，但是如果他们不那样做，这座城市的经济将只是一个空壳，如果把他们驱逐出境，这座城市的经济也会崩溃。被这座城市的传说所吸引，每个移民都想到这里来寻求一种对过去、个人以及政治生活的解脱。对于这样的移民来说，纽约是给了他第二次生命的城市。

We' ve read how babies stare longer and cry less when held by pretty people, and heard tales of handsome children doing better in school, given special attention by their teachers. In life, as in love, beautiful people seem to have it awfully easy. But what if we told you that when it comes to online dating, good looks could actually hurt you?
According to a recent survey of 43,000 users by OK Cupid, an online dating site, the moremen disagree about a woman' s looks, the more they end up liking her. What does that mean for ladies looking for a match? " We now have mathematical evidence that minimizing your weaknesses' is the opposite of what you should do," says the site's co-founder, Christian Rudder. "If you' re a little fat, play it up. If you have a big nose, play it up. Statistically, the guys who don't like it can only help you, and the ones who do like it will be all the more excited. "
The results of this study end up highlighting an idea that recent scientific research does indeed support. Which is this: the beautiful may have it good, but online, as in work and life, women who are too attractive don't always have an advantage.
Beauty creates more competition--among women, taught they must out-look each other for men and jobs and everyday satisfaction; and among men, who are competing for the most attrac- tive prize. All of which might help explain why 47 percent of corporate recruiters believe it' s pos- sible for a woman to suffer for being "too good-looking" ; why attractive women tend to face heightened examination from their female peers; or, finally, why men on OK Cupid end up con- tacting women who may ultimately be less attractive--because it removes the opposition. "If you suspect other men are uninterested, it means less competition," explains Rudder. "You might start thinking: maybe she's lonely., maybe she's just waiting to find a guy who appreciates her. at least I won' t get lost in the crowd. "
In the end, being beautiful will always have its blessings--but sometimes, there' s more to an
advantage than meets the eye.
51. It is generally believed that beautiful people_______
A. have less difficult in life
B. are less worried about love
C. pay less attention to others
D. like to gaze at lovely babies
52. The OK Cupid survey found that men' s arguments over a woman' s looks
A. have little meaning
B. benefit online dating
C. will actually hurt her
D. add to her popularity
53. Christian Rudder advises women to_______
A. play up their physical advantages
B. view their popularity scientifically
C. highlight their physical weaknesses
D. accept guys who are willing to help
54. The attitude of women toward their attractive peers is_______
A. critical
B. friendly
C. conservative
D. straightforward
55. The main idea of the text is that a woman' s good looks_______
A. help to shape ideas of beauty
B. can put her at a disadvantage
C. end up with blessings for her
D. will always appeal to the eye
译文
我们读过很多文章是关于漂亮的人抱着婴儿，婴儿会盯着看得时间更久，并且会哭得更少;也听过一些传说关于长得好的人在学校的表现更好。并且会受到老师的特殊照顾。在生活中，正如在爱情中一样，漂亮的人似乎生活得更容易。但是如果我们告诉你，在网上约会时，长得好看可能会伤害你，你会怎么样?根据一家互联网约会网站——0K丘比特最近一项针对43，000名用户所做的调查，男人越是不喜欢一位女士的外貌，最终越是可能喜欢上她。对于寻求另一半的女士来说，这意味着什么呢?“我们现在有绝对的证据表明你不应该隐藏自己的缺点，”该网站的合伙创办人——克里斯丁·卢德说。“如果你有点胖，突出它。如果你鼻子大，突出它。统计数据表明，不喜欢你的缺点的人只会帮助你，然而喜欢的人会更加兴奋。”
这个研究结果最终强调了，最近的科学研究确实支持了这一观点。该观点是：漂亮可能会有好处，但是在互联网上，正如在工作和生活中一样，太有吸引力的女性并不总是有优势。美丽带采更多的竞争，女性受到的教育是为了得到男人、工作以及日常的满足，她们必须比其他女性长得好看;而男性竞争是为了获得最好的战利品。这一切可能有助于解释为什么47%的招聘单位都认为长得太好看的女性可能会受苦;为什么女性同伴们对于长得好看的女性更加挑剔;最后一点，为什么在OK丘比特网站男性最终找的都是不怎么吸引人的女性——因为这减少了很多对手。“如果你觉得其他男性不感兴趣，那意味着更少的竞争，”卢德解释说。“你可能认为：可能她很孤独….可能她只是等着找一位欣赏她的男士…，至少我不会迷失在人群巾，”最终，长得好看总是幸运的，但是有时候与养眼相比还有更多可以成为优势的方面。
答案
51.A【精析】细节题。文章第一段详细介绍了这一点：我们读过很多文章是关于婴儿由漂亮的人抱着，会盯着看得时间更久，并且会哭得更少;也听过一些传说关于长得好的人在学校的表现也更好，并且受到老师的特殊照顾。在生活中，正如在爱情中一样，漂亮的人似乎生活得更容易点。故选A。
52.D【精析】细节题。根据第二段可知，0K丘比特最近针对43，000名用户所做的调查显示，男人越是不看好一位女士的外貌，最终越是可能会喜欢上她。故选D。
53.C【精析】细节题。根据第二段可知，克里斯丁·卢德建议女士们不要隐藏自己的缺点，要突出它。故选C。
54.A【精析】细节题。根据第四段第二句可知，女性同伴们对于长得好的女性更加挑剔，故选A。
55.B【精析】推断题。根据第四段可知，美丽引起更多的竞争，很多招聘单位都认为长得太好看的女性可能容易受苦;女性同伴们对于长得好的女性更加挑剔;在OK丘比特网站男性最终找的都是不怎么吸引人的女性。因此可推知，女性的美貌不总是带来优势，有时候也会带来不利。故选B。

2017全国英语等级考试三级阅读真题及译文答案
导语：阅读理解是公共英语当中对考生来说比较难的一个题目，因为选项当中有很多迷惑人的答案，下面是我提供的2017全国英语等级考试三级阅读真题及译文答案，大家先练练手吧!
Today there are three different kinds of New Yorkers: the people who act as if they were born here; the people who are here and wish to be elsewhere; and the collection of virtual New Yorkers all over the world, who wish they were hying in New York. These are the three States of mind and what they have in common are longing and illusion. In fact, it' s a city of dreamers.
What makes New York special? New Yorkers are convinced of its speciainess--but Toronto is more diverse, London is larger, Washington is more powerful. So why does New York think it' s the capital of the world?
People often explain the problems in European cities by citing inequality. But New York today is one of the most unequal cities in America. In 2010, 1 percent of New Yorkers earned 45 percent of its income. That works out to an average of $ 3.7 million a year for the city' s top 34,500 households. The average daily income of this group is greater than the average annual income of the city's bottom 10 percent.
So why would people still come to try their luck in this tough place? Is it opportunity or illu- sion that draws them?
They come because any newcomer can find a place in the hierarchy of New York. If you look at a New York City restaurant, for example, the cook might be French, the people washing dishes might be Mexican, the hostess might be Russian, the owner might be British. They arc not all equal. They earn different rates. But they work together to get food to hungry people.
What New York demonstrates is this: immigration works. The city can use its immigrants, even the illegal ones. Though they broke the law by illegally crossing the borders, the city' s econ- omy would be a shell of itself had they not, and it would collapse if they were deported. Attracted here by the founding myth of the city, each immigrant is seeking to escape from history, personal and political. For him, New York is the city of the second chance.
46. The writer mentions the three kinds of New Yorkers to stress that_______
A. they share the same longingB. they are in pursuit of dreams
C. they are proud of their birthplace D. they wish to live in another place
47. In the eyes of New Yorkers, their city is_______
A. powerful
B. diverse
C. special
D. large
48. The figures in paragraph 3 are given to show that New York_______
A. favors the lucky
B. favors tue locals
C. is a city of inequality
D. is a city of opportunities
49. People keep coming to New York because they can find jobs that_______
A. challenge them
B. suit them well
C. pay them well
D. raise their status
50. It is hnplied in the text that New York is_______
A. a tolerant city
B. a wealthy city
C. a mythical city
D. a historical city
译文
当今有三种不同类型的纽约人：第一种表现得好像他们生来就在纽约;第二种虽然在纽约却希望生活在别处;第三种是来自世界各地的一群希望生活在纽约的虚拟纽约人。这是三种不同的心态，其共同点是憧憬和幻想。事实上，这是一座梦想家的城市。
是什么使得纽约与众不同?纽约人确信纽约是独一无二的—但是多伦多更加多元化，伦敦更大，华盛顿更有权势。那么，为什么纽约认为自己是世界之都呢?人们常常说欧洲的城市问题是不平等。但是当今的纽约是美国最不平等的城市之一。2010年，l%的纽约人的收入占到全纽约的45%。这意味着这个城市最有钱的34，500个家庭的平均年收入是370万美元。这个群体平均日收入要多于这个城市最贫穷的l0%的人的平均年收入。那么，为什么仍然有人愿意到这样一个不平等的地方来碰运气呢?吸引他们来到这里的是机会还是幻觉?他们来到这里是因为任何新来者都可以在纽约的不同层级中找到自己的位置。例如，你随便看一家纽约的饭店，他们的厨师可能是法国人，洗盘子的可能是墨西哥人，女服务员可能是俄罗斯人，店主人可能是英国人。他们并不完全平等。他们赚得不同的收入。但是他们一起工作把食物提供给饥饿的人们。纽约向我们展示的是：移民很有用。这座城市利用它的移民，甚至非法移民。虽然他们非法跨越边境破坏了法律，但是如果他们不那样做，这座城市的经济将只是一个空壳，如果把他们驱逐出境，这座城市的经济也会崩溃。被这座城市的传说所吸引，每个移民都想到这里来寻求一种对过去、个人以及政治生活的解脱。对于这样的移民来说，纽约是给了他第二次生命的城市。
答案
46.B【精析】主旨题。根据第一段内容可知，当今有三种不同类型的纽约人：第一种表现得好像他们生来就在纽约;第二种虽然在纽约却希望生活在别处;第三种是来自全世界的一群希望生活在纽约的虚拟的纽约人。这是三种不同的心态，其共同点是憧憬和幻想。事实上，这是一座梦想家的城市。故选B。
47.C 【精析】细节题。根据第二段第一、二句话：什么使得纽约与众不同?纽约人确信纽约是独一无二的`。故选C。
48.C【精析】细节题。根据第三段第二句话：但是当今的纽约是美国最不平等的城市之一。故选C。
49.B【精析】细节题。根据第五段第一句话：他们来到这里是因为任何新来者都可以在纽约的不同层级中找到自己的位置。故选B。
50.A【精析】推断题。根据最后一段可知，纽约吸纳了各种移民者(不论是否合法)来促进自己城市的经济发展。由此可以推知，纽约是一个宽容的城市，故选A。
We' ve read how babies stare longer and cry less when held by pretty people, and heard tales of handsome children doing better in school, given special attention by their teachers. In life, as in love, beautiful people seem to have it awfully easy. But what if we told you that when it comes to online dating, good looks could actually hurt you?
According to a recent survey of 43,000 users by OK Cupid, an online dating site, the moremen disagree about a woman' s looks, the more they end up liking her. What does that mean for ladies looking for a match? " We now have mathematical evidence that minimizing your weaknesses' is the opposite of what you should do," says the site's co-founder, Christian Rudder. "If you' re a little fat, play it up. If you have a big nose, play it up. Statistically, the guys who don't like it can only help you, and the ones who do like it will be all the more excited. "
The results of this study end up highlighting an idea that recent scientific research does indeed support. Which is this: the beautiful may have it good, but online, as in work and life, women who are too attractive don't always have an advantage.
Beauty creates more competition--among women, taught they must out-look each other for men and jobs and everyday satisfaction; and among men, who are competing for the most attrac- tive prize. All of which might help explain why 47 percent of corporate recruiters believe it' s pos- sible for a woman to suffer for being "too good-looking" ; why attractive women tend to face heightened examination from their female peers; or, finally, why men on OK Cupid end up con- tacting women who may ultimately be less attractive--because it removes the opposition. "If you suspect other men are uninterested, it means less competition," explains Rudder. "You might start thinking: maybe she's lonely., maybe she's just waiting to find a guy who appreciates her. at least I won' t get lost in the crowd. "
In the end, being beautiful will always have its blessings--but sometimes, there' s more to an
advantage than meets the eye.
51. It is generally believed that beautiful people_______
A. have less difficult in life
B. are less worried about love
C. pay less attention to others
D. like to gaze at lovely babies
52. The OK Cupid survey found that men' s arguments over a woman' s looks
A. have little meaning
B. benefit online dating
C. will actually hurt her
D. add to her popularity
53. Christian Rudder advises women to_______
A. play up their physical advantages
B. view their popularity scientifically
C. highlight their physical weaknesses
D. accept guys who are willing to help
54. The attitude of women toward their attractive peers is_______
A. critical
B. friendly
C. conservative
D. straightforward
55. The main idea of the text is that a woman' s good looks_______
A. help to shape ideas of beauty
B. can put her at a disadvantage
C. end up with blessings for her
D. will always appeal to the eye
译文
我们读过很多文章是关于漂亮的人抱着婴儿，婴儿会盯着看得时间更久，并且会哭得更少;也听过一些传说关于长得好的人在学校的表现更好。并且会受到老师的特殊照顾。在生活中，正如在爱情中一样，漂亮的人似乎生活得更容易。但是如果我们告诉你，在网上约会时，长得好看可能会伤害你，你会怎么样?根据一家互联网约会网站——0K丘比特最近一项针对43，000名用户所做的调查，男人越是不喜欢一位女士的外貌，最终越是可能喜欢上她。对于寻求另一半的女士来说，这意味着什么呢?“我们现在有绝对的证据表明你不应该隐藏自己的缺点，”该网站的合伙创办人——克里斯丁·卢德说。“如果你有点胖，突出它。如果你鼻子大，突出它。统计数据表明，不喜欢你的缺点的人只会帮助你，然而喜欢的人会更加兴奋。”
这个研究结果最终强调了，最近的科学研究确实支持了这一观点。该观点是：漂亮可能会有好处，但是在互联网上，正如在工作和生活中一样，太有吸引力的女性并不总是有优势。美丽带采更多的竞争，女性受到的教育是为了得到男人、工作以及日常的满足，她们必须比其他女性长得好看;而男性竞争是为了获得最好的战利品。这一切可能有助于解释为什么47%的招聘单位都认为长得太好看的女性可能会受苦;为什么女性同伴们对于长得好看的女性更加挑剔;最后一点，为什么在OK丘比特网站男性最终找的都是不怎么吸引人的女性——因为这减少了很多对手。“如果你觉得其他男性不感兴趣，那意味着更少的竞争，”卢德解释说。“你可能认为：可能她很孤独….可能她只是等着找一位欣赏她的男士…，至少我不会迷失在人群巾，”最终，长得好看总是幸运的，但是有时候与养眼相比还有更多可以成为优势的方面。
答案
51.A【精析】细节题。文章第一段详细介绍了这一点：我们读过很多文章是关于婴儿由漂亮的人抱着，会盯着看得时间更久，并且会哭得更少;也听过一些传说关于长得好的人在学校的表现也更好，并且受到老师的特殊照顾。在生活中，正如在爱情中一样，漂亮的人似乎生活得更容易点。故选A。
52.D【精析】细节题。根据第二段可知，0K丘比特最近针对43，000名用户所做的调查显示，男人越是不看好一位女士的外貌，最终越是可能会喜欢上她。故选D。
53.C【精析】细节题。根据第二段可知，克里斯丁·卢德建议女士们不要隐藏自己的缺点，要突出它。故选C。
54.A【精析】细节题。根据第四段第二句可知，女性同伴们对于长得好的女性更加挑剔，故选A。
55.B【精析】推断题。根据第四段可知，美丽引起更多的竞争，很多招聘单位都认为长得太好看的女性可能容易受苦;女性同伴们对于长得好的女性更加挑剔;在OK丘比特网站男性最终找的都是不怎么吸引人的女性。因此可推知，女性的美貌不总是带来优势，有时候也会带来不利。故选B。

网上没有泛读三的真题。一般可以去自考书店买，1元一套。泛三的重题出现率很高。英语巴士自考真题比较多，包括全国各地的真题。365的江苏版英本真题也不少，但没有泛三的真题省份：江苏考试时间：每年10月份教材：高级英语阅读教程（下）--上海交通大学出版社学习资料：教材一本、06年10月真题一份。自考办有历年真题卖，每份1元。我还买了份05年的，可惜全无用，教材是06年新换的，可见自考办的不人道之处，教材都换了，配套的试卷竟然还在卖，自考办的网站上样卷也没有更新（新旧考卷的考题不完全一样，更新还是很必要的）。工具书：牛津双解词典。关于教材，全书共16单元，每单元分A、B两课，A后有练习并配有答案，B为辅助阅读，和A内容类似。考察基础（课文）的考题包括填空、选择题、修辞法判断选择、用英文解释斜题部分、回答课文相关问题、翻译。考察能力的考题为阅读理解题。下面就各题型简单说明其复习方法，仅为应试用...1、填空（10P），10个空，每空一分。------该部分的考题基本上出自课后第一题的填空，基本上都是原题的，而且书后都有答案的。2、选择题（20P）。从四个选项中找出一个正确答案，解释句中画线的词或词组。句子选自课文。------关于该部分有三点：一是会有重题，今年就有5道左右的重题；二比较偏向考词义，而且是非常用的词义，所以看书时，遇到理解不通的时候，就多查词典，词典上的释义很全面，而且还有例句，有助于理解，我想这就是我比较偏爱传统工具书的地方吧；三是约有40%的题目会出自单元B。这部分出题面很广，所以复习时的细心、积累很重要。不过，选择题总归是好做的，有备选答案嘛。3、判断题（10P），5个句子，每个2分。-------判断所给句子的修辞手法，考题也基本出自课A后面的修辞方法介绍（共有16种修辞法）。一般会给出7个选项，相当于7选5，这样不仅要判断出修辞法，还要选择正确，所以一定要熟记各种修辞法的单词拼写，这部分的10分一般不会丢的。复习时理解下书上的例句，考前背一下16个单词是很重要的。4、阅读理解题（20P）。2篇短文，每篇5个问题。根据短文，选择正确答案回答问题，这部分没什么好说的。5、用英文解释句中的斜体部分（15P），5个题目，每个3分。-------这部分考题基本上出自课后的注释和第三题的解释斜题部分，背诵就好了。这部分原本是打算不复习的，想说就临场发挥好了。结果考前一天的下午，看去年考题的时候，发现都是课后的第三题原题，当时那个激动阿。就开始边写边背，每课5个，16课也是80个句子阿，有长有短的（考试的题目也是有长句有短句）。不想背了就暂时分散下注意力，然后再接着背，考前都容易浮躁，但还是要坚持。考试当天早晨又背了一遍，恩是一个小时多一点儿。我觉得早晨再背的这遍是很有用的，就跟考毛概和政经前狂读一样，不要小看这种临时记忆。6、回答课文相关问题（15P），3个问题，每个5分。------该部分其实看一下历届考题，就知道出题类型了，比如段落大意阿，作者论据阿，你是如何理解的....之类的。会有重复的考题出现。考前我以为不会有重题，所以真题的这部分没有看，结果发了卷子一看第一个题目就重复，当时心就有点凉，就把这部分放在最后做了。这个就像考试习惯，题目复习到了的，就会开心；没有复习到么，也没关系，相信自己还是有实力的嘛；关键就是复习的时候，知道有这个题目，以为不会出的，就没看，结果它出了，那个懊悔阿，纠结阿，没想死的心，也有拍桌子的心。就是想告诉大家考场上心态和情绪调节也很有必要。 还要提醒的是：背课后第三题及答案对做这部分题目也有帮助噢。7、翻译（10P），中译英2个，英译中3个，每个2分。-------这部分就看你的理解能力和汉语表达了，我是比较偏直译的，答得自己都觉得不怎么通顺。这部分好像也碰到一个课后第三题的句子，所以呢，关于课后的题目，理解也很重要阿。先就这样吧。总之，应试的话就是历届考题、背课文注释、课后填空、课后斜体解释（第三题）、修辞法，这样再加上阅读，通过考试就没有问题。所以呢，泛读（三）就是一纸老虎。题外话：虽然泛读（三）都是自己摸索学的，可是高级英语却是从巴士获益良多阿，mp3、课文逐句译、课后答案，最最重要的是有了信心，有这么多热心的考友，共享学习资料，分享考路心情。还要谢谢介绍给我这个网站的朋友。参考
