教师公开招聘考试(中学英语)模拟试卷34 (题后含答案及解析)
题型有:1. Our home was a complete zoo—a joyous zoo. Not surprising, I never did make it back to college full-time. But I never gave up on the dream either. I had only one choice: to find a way. That meant talking as few as one class each semester. The hardest part was feeling guilty about the time I spent away from the boys. They often wanted me to stay home with them. There certainly were times I wanted to quit, but I knew I should set an example for them to follow through the rest of their lives. In 2007, I graduated from the University of North Carolina. It took me over 21 years to get my college degree! I am not special, just single-minded. It always struck me that when you’re looking at a big challenge from the outside it looks huge, but when you’re in the midst of it, it just seems normal. Everything you want won’t arrive in your life on one day. It’s a process. Remember: little steps add up to big dreams.

Gestures aren’t the only area in which the unwary traveler can get tripped up. Foreign cultures adhere to different business customs and behavior. For example: Caffeine junkies should re strain themselves in the Middle East. “Three cups of tea or coffee is usually the polite limit in offices and during social calls,” counsels “Travel Pak”, a free publication of Alia, the Royal Jordanian Airline. “But if your host keeps going, you also may continue sipping. If you’ve had your fill, give your empty cup a quick twist a sort of wiggle—as you hand it back. That means “No more, thank you.” Middle East visitors also should not be surprised “if others barge right into the office in the middle of your conversation with the person you are seeing,” notes “Travel Pak”. An old Arab custom calls for keeping an “open office.” The British, however, consider it impolite to interrupt a visitor, even after all business has been transacted. The commercial caller is expected to be sensitive to this point, know when to stop, and initiate his or her own departure. In Japan certain guests at evening business gatherings will leave early. They should be allowed to leave without effusive goodbyes. The Japanese consider formal departures to be disruptive in such cases and disturbing to remaining guests. In Scandinavia and Finland business guests may be asked to shed their clothes and join their hosts in a sauna (桑拿). The invitation is a sign that a good working relationship has been established. In the Arab world, the word “no” must be mentioned three times before it is accepted. In contrast, it is considered good business manners to make many and long efforts to pick up the check. In the People’ s Republic of China, gift giving is considered an insult, says Patrick J. Lewis, President of Club Universe, a Los Angeles tour operator. “If you want to give someone a gift, make sure it’s modest in value. This will not be considered offensive, but it may be declined,” The Chinese manner of expressing
friendship and welcome is to clap. Lewis adds. “You may be greeted with clapping when entering a factory, hospital, commune, or school. Politeness dictates that you respond with applause, even though it may seem like you’re clapping for yourself.”
35. In the Middle East, it is considered_______. A.impolite to drink at least 3 cups of coffee
B.impolite to drink more than 3 cups of coffee unless your host drinks more C.polite to ask the host to give you as more as he can D.polite to leave a party as early as you want
正确答案:B
解析:推断题。短文第一段指出:《巴基斯坦之行》中有一条建议是“Three cups of tea or coffee is usually the polite limit in offices and during social calls.”即三杯茶或咖啡是在办公室或社交拜访活动时的有礼貌的限度。故选项B正确。

37. In Finland, business guests may_______. A.take flowers to the host
B.send an expensive gift to the host C.have sauna with the host D.present a business card
正确答案:C
解析:细节题。短文第二段最后指出“In Scandinavia and Finland business guests may be asked to shed their clothes and join their hosts in a sauna.”即在斯堪的纳维亚和芬兰,商务客人会被要求脱掉衣服与主人一起洗桑拿。故选项C正确。

There is little debate about the first development of the energy system of the 22nd century—that most of the energy produced on a large scale will be in the form of electric power. Thus, most present concepts for major long-term energy sources (solar, geothermal, fusion) are based upon electric power production at central plants. The second major development is the potential use of hydrogen as both a basic fuel to replace natural gas and as part of a general system to convert, store and transmit electric energy over long district by fuel cells, or it could be used directly as a fuel for commercial, industrial or transportation purposes. Although hydrogen seems likely to play a major role in the future as a form of energy transport and storage, other processes may also be useful. Here we note only two possibilities. Flywheels: It appears to be workable to construct flywheels of almost any needed size that would be efficient converters (93-95 percent) in first storing and then releasing electric power. In addition, the kinetic (动力的) energy of rotation is easily converted to alternating electric power. But the engineering is at an early stage of development, and a decade or more may pass before this potential can be reliably estimated. Batteries and fuel cells: some of the many batteries being developed today look quite promising. Within a decade or two, a battery-operated electric auto might even become competitive with today’s vehicles, at least for driving ranges up to 200 miles. An electric automobile would be pollution-free, and would probably be more energy-efficient than the internal-combustion (内燃) engine. A fuel cell (which may be considered a hydride battery) with about 40 percent conversion efficiency is expected to enter power production on a large scale within about five years. Unlike steam-powered generators, fuel cells can be made large or small and their efficiency in operation is essentially independent of the loading. Thus they may avoid most of
the distribution costs of electric power as well as provide pollution-free power and offer opportunities for using the “waste heat” effectively.
40. The energy we use most today is______. A.solar energy
B.geothermal energy C.hydrogen D.electricity

Housing officials say that lately they are noticing something different: students seem to lack the will, and skill, to address these ordinary conflicts. “We have students who are mad at each other and they text each other in the same room,” says a teacher. “So many of our roommate conflicts are because kids don’t know how to negotiate a problem.” And as any pop psychologist will tell you, bottled emotions lead to silent seething (不满) that can boil over into frustration and anger. At the University of Florida, emotional outbursts occur about once a week, the university’s
director of housing and residence education says. “It used to be: ‘Let’s sit down and talk about it,’” he says. “Over the past five years, roommate conflicts have intensified. The students don’t have the person-to-person discussions and they don’t know how to handle them. “ The problem is most dramatic among freshmen; housing professionals say they see improvement as students move toward graduation, but some never seem to catch on, and they worry about how such students will deal with conflicts after college. Administrators speculate that reliance on cellphones and the Internet may have made it easier for young people to avoid uncomfortable encounters. Why express anger in person when you can vent in a text? Facebook creates even more friction as complaints go public. “Things are posted on someone’s wall on Facebook: ‘ Oh, my roommate kept me up all night studying,’” says Dana Pysz, an assistant director in the office of residential life at the University of California, Los Angeles. “It’s a different way to express their conflict to each other.” In recent focus groups at North Carolina State University, dorm residents said they would not even confront noisy neighbors on their floor. Administrators point to parents who have fixed their children’s problems their entire lives. Now in college, the children lack the skills to attend to even modest conflicts. Some parents continue to intervene on campus.
43. What is the main reason of roommate conflicts? A.Students text each other in the same room. B.Students are always mad at each other. C.Director of housing is responsible for that. D.Students are not good at negotiating.
正确答案:D
解析:细节题。文章在第一段最后指出舍友之间发生冲突的原因是“because kids don’t know how to negotiate a problem”,故选D。
44. What should parents do according to the passage? A.They should interview their children’s life on campus. B.They should cultivate the independence of their children.
C.They should deal with their children’s problems their whole lives.
D.They should teach their children how to deal with the smallest conflicts.
正确答案:B
解析:推断题。作者在最后一段指出“parents who have fixed their children’s problems their entire lives…Some parents continue to intervene on campus.”即父母一生都在为孩子解决他们遇到的问题。一些父母在孩子上大学后还干涉他们的生活。由此可推断,作者建议父母应该培养孩子的性。故选B。
45. The best title for the passage is______. A.Student’s Life in College
B.Student’s Failure to Communicate
C.Parent’s Intervention in Their Children’ s Life D.Teacher’s Concern About Students
正确答案:B
解析:主旨题。纵观全文可知,整篇文章都在讲学生不善于与人交流,不善解决矛盾冲突。故正确答案为B。

47. Directions: For this part, you are to write a short essay entitled Goal Setting Is Important by commenting on John Ruskin’s famous remark, “Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.” You should write at least 120 words.
正确答案: Goal Setting Is Important “Living without an aim is like sailing without a compass.” This philosophical wisdom by John Ruskin, one of the greatest British writers, tells us that goal setting is extremely important in life. Why is goal setting so important? The main importance of goal setting is that it provides us with direction and purpose. When we have goals, we know what we want to achieve so that we can focus our minds on a single worthwhile target and avoid getting distracted easily. Personal goal setting also provides us with motivation to achieve what we want to achieve. Goal setting is of great significance for today’s students. A study reveals that when students set goals, they learn the importance of taking responsibility, of minimizing excuses and of helping others. Goal setting is a lifelong skill that first helps students succeed in school and then later in life.
