3、国硕士研究生入学统一考试英语试题27答案281986年全国硕士研究生入学统一考试英语试题On Wednesday afternoons Annie took the bus into town to shop in the market. For an hour or _16_ she would walk up and down between the stalls looking at everything, buying here and there, and _17_ a sharp lookout for the bargains that were sometimes to be
4、had. And then, with all the things she needed _18_ she would leave the market for the streets of the town to spend another hour _19_ she liked best: looking in furniture shop windows.One Wednesday she found a new shop full of the most delightful things, with a notice inviting anyone to walk in and l
5、ook _20_ without feeling they had to buy something. Annie hesitated for a moment before stepping through the doorway where, almost at once, she stopped _21_ before a green armchair. There was a card on the chair which said: “This fine chair is yours _22_ less than a pound a week,” and very small at
6、the bottom, “Cash price eighty-nine pounds fifty.” A pound a week. _23_, she could almost pay that out of her housekeeping money and never miss it! A voice at her shoulder made her _24_. “Can I help you, Madam?” She looked round at the assistant who had come softly to her _25_.“Oh, well, no,” she sa
7、id. “I was just looking.” “Weve chairs of all kinds in the showroom. If youll just come up, you will find something to suit you.”Annie, worried at the thought of being persuaded to buy something she didnt need, left the shop hurriedly. 2916.A soB moreC elseD another17.A takingB makingC fixingD keepi

9、ave _36_ replaced money as a means of exchange for they are widely accepted everywhere. Though this is very convenient for both buyer and seller, it should not be forgotten that cheques are not real money: they are quite valueless in themselves. A shop-keeper always runs a certain _37_ when he accep
10、ts a cheques and he is quite _38_ his rights if on occasion, he refuses to do so.People do not always know this and are shocked if their good faith is called _39_. An old and very wealthy friend of mine told me he had an extremely unpleasant experience. He went to a famous jewelry shop which keeps a
11、 large _40_ of precious stones and asked to be shown some pearl necklaces. After examining several trays, he decided to buy a particularly fine string of pearls and asked if he could pay by Cheques. The assistant said that this was quite _41_ but the moment my friend signed his name, he was invited
12、into the managers office.The manager was very polite, but he explained that someone with exactly the same name had presented them with a worthless Cheque not long ago. My friend got very angry when he heard this and said he would buy a necklace somewhere else. When he got up to go, the manager told
13、him that the police would arrive at any moment and he had better stay _42_ the wanted to get into serious trouble. _43_, the police arrived soon afterwards. They apologized to my friend for the _44_, but explained that a person who had used the same name as his was responsible for a number of recent
14、 robberies. Then the police asked my friend to copy out a note which had been used by the thief in a number of shops. The note _45_: “I have a gun in my pocket. Ask no questions and give me all the money in the safe.” Fortunately, my friends handwriting was quite unlike the thiefs. He was not only a
15、llowed to go without further delay, but to take the string of pearls with him. 36.A exactlyB reallyC largelyD thoroughly37.A dangerB chanceC riskD opportunity38.A withinB beyondC withoutD out of39.A in difficultyB in doubtC in earnestD in question40.A amountB stockC numberD store41.A in orderB in ne

The Mayflower heade
17、d for the Jamestown colony on the warm shore of Virginia. Its one hundred passengers were the Pilgrims. They were looking for a place where they could worship God _26_. Because of strong winds and severe storms, the Mayflower lost its _27_. The brave group of colonists finally had to land at Plymout
18、h on the rocky coast of Massachusetts in December 1620. It was the middle of the stern northern winter. _28_ months of starvation, disease, and death were ahead of them. Only the strongest of the pilgrims _29_ that winter. Many women gave their own pitiful rations to their children and died for lack
19、 of food for themselves. Living _30_ began to improve in the spring of 1621. There were wild vegetables. There were berries and fruit. Fish and game were plentiful. Therefore, they were able to get enough fresh meat despite their lack of skill or experience in hunting and fishing. The colonists heal
20、th _31_ with the warm weather and their better diet.In the fall, they look back _32_ the past year. They were both regretful and thankful. Only fifty of the original one hundred passengers remained. The price in human life and tragedy had been great. On the other hand, they saw new hope for the futu
21、re. A splendid harvest was _33_ them. They were ready for the second winter with confidence. They had eleven crude houses for protection against the severe winter. Seven were for families, and four were for communal use. _34_, they had established a treaty of friendship with their Indian neighbors u
22、nder Chief Massasoit in the summer.The woods and forests became safe. When the Mayflower returned to England that summer, there were no colonists _35_. At the end of their first year in their new home, the Pilgrims wanted to celebrate with a real holiday. It was their first Thanks giving Day. 26.A i

Vast areas of desert throughout the world may for the first time _26_ and pro
25、vide millions of hectares of land where now nothing grows.By the end of this century this may not be mere _27_. Scientists are already looking into the possibility of using some of the available ice in the Arctic and Antarctic. In these regions there are vast ice-caps formed by snow that has fallen
26、over the past 50,000 years. Layer _28_ layer of deep snow means that, when melted, the snow water would be pure, not salty as sea-ice would be. There is so much _29_ pure water here that it would need only a fraction of it to turn much of the desert or poorly irrigated parts of the world into rich f
27、armland. And what useful packages it would come in! It should be possible to cut off a bit of ice and transport it! Alternatively perhaps a passing iceberg could be _30_. They are always breaking away from the main caps and floating around, pushed by currents, until they eventually melt and are wast
28、ed.Many icebergs are, of course, far too small to be towed _31_ distance, and would melt before they reached a country that needed them anywhere. It would be necessary to locate one that was _32_ and that was big enough to provide a good supply of ice when it reached us. Engineers think that an iceb
29、erg up to seven miles long and one and a half miles wide could be transported if the tug pulling it was as big as a supertanker! Even then they would cover only twenty miles every day. However, _33_ the iceberg was at its destination, more that 7,000 million cubic metres of water could be taken from
30、 it! That would probably be more than enough for any medium-sized city even in the hottest summer! But no doubt a use could be found for it. _34_, scientist say, there would not be too much wastage in such a journey. The larger the iceberg, the slower it melts, even if it is towed through the tropic
31、s. This is because when the sun has a bigger area to warm _35_, less heat actually gets into the iceberg. The vast frozen centre would be unaffected. 26.A come to lifeB come into existenceC come into activityD come round27.A speculationB imaginationC computationD expectation28.A aboveB ofC uponD ove

33、题No one knows for sure what the world would be like in the year 2001. Many books have been written _26_ the future. But the 19th-century French novelist Jules Verne may be called a futurologist in the fullest _27_ of the word. In his fantastic novels “A Trip to the Moon” and “80 Days Around the Worl
34、d,” he described with detail the aeroplane and even the helicopter. These novels still have a great attraction _28_ young readers of today because of their bold imagination and scientific accuracy.Below is a description of what our life will be in the year 2001 as predicted by a _29_ writer.In 2001,
35、 in the home, cookers will be set so that you can cook a complete meal at the touch of a switch.Television will provide information on prices at the _30_ shops as well as news and entertainment. Videophones will bring pictures as well as _31_ to telephone conversations.Machines will control temperat
36、ure, lighting, entertainment, security alarms, laundry and gardening.Lighting will provide decoration as well as wallpaper.At work, robots will take _32_ most jobs in the manufacturing industries. Working hours will fall to under 30 hours a week. Holidays will get longer; six weeks will be the norma
37、l annual holiday. Men and women will retire at the same age.Our leisure will be different too. The home will become the center of entertainment through television and electronic games. More people will eat out in restaurants _33_ they do today; also they will have a much wider variety of food availa
38、ble. There will be a change of taste towards a more savoury-flavored menu. New synthetic foods will form a _34_ part of peoples diets.Foreign travel will _35_; winter holidays will become more popular than summer ones.Also non-stop flights from Britain to Australia and New Zealand will be easily ava
39、ilable and much cheaper.

Some of the difficul
41、ties they experienced when they were trying to _46_ themselves to the new medium were technical. When working _47_ radio, for example, they had become _48_ to seeing on behalf of the listener.This _49_ of seeing for others means that the commentator has to be very good at talking. _50_ all, he has t
42、o be able to _51_ a continuous sequence of visual images which _52_ meaning to the sounds which the listener hears. In the _53_ of television, however, the commentator sees everything with the viewer. His role, therefore, is _54_ different. He is there to make _55_ that the viewer does not miss some
43、 point of interest, to help him _56_ on particular things, and to _57_ the images on the television screen. _58_ his radio colleague, he must know the _59_ of silence and how to use it at those moments _60_ the pictures speak for themselves. 46.A turnB adaptC alterD modify47.A onB atC withD behind48
