1、银行校园招聘考试英语部分专题训练(五)Section Use of English Directions: Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on Answer Sheet 1. Generally speaking, a British is widely regarded as a quiet, shy and conservative person who is 1 only among those with whom he is a

2、cquainted. When a stranger is at present, he often seems nervous, 2 embarrassed. You have to take a commuter train any morning or evening to 3 the truth of this. Serious-looking businessmen and women sit reading their newspapers or dozing in a corner. Hardly anybody talks, since to do so would be co

3、nsidered quite offensive. 4 , there is an unwritten but clearly understood code of behavior which, 5 broken, makes the offender immediately the object of 6 . It has been known as a fact that the British has a 7 for the discussion of their weather and that, if given a chance, he will talk about it 8

4、. Some people argue that it is because the British weather seldom 9 forecast and hence becomes a source of interest and 10 to everyone. This may be so. 11 a British cannot have much 12 in the weathermen, who, after promising fine, sunny weather for the following day, are often proved wrong 13 a clou

5、d over the Atlantic brings rainy weather to all districts! The man in the street seems to be as accurate-or as inaccurate-as the weathermen in his 14 . Foreigners may be surprised at the number of references 15 weather that the British make to each other in the course of a single day. Very often con

6、versational greetings are 16 by comments on the weather. Nice day, isnt it? Beautiful! may well be heard instead of Good morning, how are you? 17 the foreigner may consider this exaggerated and comic, it is worthwhile pointing out that it could be used to his advantage. 18 he wants to start a conver

7、sation with a British but is 19 to know where to begin, he could do well to mention the state of the weather. It is a safe subject which will 20 an answer from even the most reserved of the British. 1. A relaxed B frustrated C amused D exhausted 2. A yet B otherwise C even D so 3. A experience B wit

8、ness C watch D undergo 4. A Deliberately B Consequently C Frequently D Apparently 5. A unless B once C while D as 6. A suspicion B opposition C criticism D praise 7.

Answer the questions below

11、each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet 1.Text 1 Readers of our Christmas issue were invited to nominate the wisest fool of the past 50 years. They responded magnificently, though often predictably. But this was not a popularity contest, or an unpopularity one. Except J

12、ack Kennedy, every eligible president of the United States was nominated, along with every important political leader of the rest of the world. Alan Greenspan was a popular choice, but surprisingly few businessmen were proposed. Donald Trump, Kenneth Lay, Steve Jobs, Sir Richard Branson and Lord Con

13、rad Black were those most often mentioned. Even fewer women were nominated, though Diana, Princess of Wales, was a strong contender. Piers Allen of Malta nominated Ronald Reagan, explaining, A joke-cracking, afternoon-napping, intellectual lightweight whose memory could, in times of crisis, always b

14、e relied upon, but only to fail. Although foolish enough to announce, live on radio, that he would be bombing Russia in five minutes and take advice from his wifes astrologer (占星家), he was also wise enough to have survived union leadership and two terms as governor of California to reach the preside

15、ncy of the United States and end the cold war favourably for the West. Any other wise fools making it to the White House will be hard pressed to fill his cowboy boots. Richard Spencer (address not supplied) chose Yasser Arafat, whose foolishness was in never missing an opportunity to miss an opportu

16、nity. While appearing to his people as a strong leader who could stand up to the Israelis, Arafat was unable to (or simply chose not to) seize the historical moment and forge a compromise solution that would benefit the lot of the Palestinians. Had he been wise enough to make a deal with Israel when

17、 the going was good, he likely would have been buried as a bona fide (真正旳) world leader in a sovereign state of Palestine. Denis Papathanasiou of Hoboken, New Jersey, nominated Lawrence Peter Yogi Berra, baseball player for the New York Yankees (1946-63). Mr Berra hardly qualifies as an intellectual

18、: he is famous for such remarks as You dont look so hot yourself (in response to a comment that he looked cool in his summer suit), What? You mean right now? (when asked for the time of day), and I take a two-hour nap, from one oclock to four. On second glance, however, his utterances depict a certa

19、in honest Zen-like(类似禅宗) wisdom: If you dont know where youre going, youll wind up somewhere else? It was hard to have a conversation with anyone-there were so many people talking. Those qualities have inspired a miniature popular cult (崇拜) of books and seminars. Not bad for a humble baseball player

20、 of modest education. Mr Papathanasiou takes first prize. 21. Dennis Papathasious comment suggests . A Lawrence Berra is no doubt a confused character. B It is hard to have a conversation with Lawrence Berra. C It is wrong to underestimate a person of modest education. D The baseball player is philo

21、sophical about life. 22. What is NOT true of Ronald Reagan? A He was a trade union leader before assuming the governorship of California. B He threatened to bomb the Soviet Union on the advise of an astrologer. C He projected an image of tough guy when he was the U.S. president. D His memory could o

22、nly be relied on in times of crisis. 23. The possible reason to drop the U.S. presidents from the contest is that . A The magazine deliberately disregarded popularity in the contest B most of the readers endorsed Dennis Papathanasious choice C The editors decided that they were not strong contenders

23、 D The purpose of the contest was to outwit the readers 24. Richard Spencers comment implies that the Palestinian leader . A should have declared the formation of a Palestinian state B failed to identify a historical opportunity when it arose C failed to live up to his image as a strong leader D sho

24、uld have been flexible in his approach to dealing with the Israelis 25. The word humble (Line 9, Para. 4) denotes .A self-importance in bearing B modesty in behavior C a free of care character D easy-goingness in manners Text 2 The aging process may not be the result of a rigid genetic program that

25、in itself dictates longevity. On the contrary, what we see as maximum life span may simply be the complex and indirect result of multiple traits in the organism that are internally tied to normal development. In other words, it is not that the body is somehow pre-programmed to acquire gray hair, wri

26、nkles, or diminished metabolic(新陈代谢旳) functions. Rather, these signs of aging are simply telltale side effects of activities of the organism. Consider the analogy of an aging car. Suppose a distinctive species of automobile were designed to burn fuel at a fixed temperature with an efficient rate of

27、combustion(燃烧). That specific rate of combustion is required for appropriate acceleration, cruising speed, fuel mileage(油耗), and so on. But, when the car functions in this way over a period of time, the car also, of necessity, produces certain emission by-products that, over time, begin to clog the

28、cylinders, reduce automotive efficiency, and lead to the breakdown and final collapse of the machine. In the case of the human car, it could be the burning oxygen in normal metabolism generates harmful by-products in free radicals that prove toxic to the organism. What we see here may be a basic tra

29、de-off: oxygen is essential for life yet harmful to our eventual well-being. In this view, the human car is not intentionally designed to accumulate toxic emissions in order to collapse. But there seems to be no way for the car to function at optimum levels without the destructive by-products. But s

30、uppose we could find some special fuel additive that eliminates toxic emissions. Would we then have an immortal car? Probably not. Changing the fuel used in your car wont prevent accidents, nor would any fuel additive prevent rusting or the wearing down of springs and shock absorbers. The human car

31、analogy, of course, is misleading, because an organism, unlike a manufactured object, has a capacity for repair and self-generation, at least up to certain point. The whole question about why we grow old is finding out why that capacity for self-repair ultimately seems unable to keep up with the dam

32、age rate: in short, why aging and death seem to be universal. 26. From the passage, we learn that . A the aging process becomes quicker as people live longer B ones life span has nothing to do with his genetic constitution C aging may not be caused by the bodys genetic program D normal development d

33、ictates the maximum age of a person 27. The example of the aging car is used to make the point that .A aging is actually a by-product of the life process B any car may break down or collapse over time C no car can function at optimum levels due to inferior fuel D efficient rate of combustion is most

34、 important to the car 28. A basic trade-off (Line 3, Para. 3) is a process .A by which old cars are traded off for new ones B by which any organism depends on others for oxygen C through which an organism gets rid of harmful substances D in which any use carries with it an inherent side effect 29. W

35、hich of the following statements is true according to the passage? A Aging would never take place if we developed a special fuel additive. B We would live forever if we developed a magic medicine for longevity. C Longevity is determined by diverse kinds of factors. D Nothing can be done to prolong a

36、 life when it comes to its natural end. 30. The human car analogy is faulty in the way that .A unlike a person, a car does not have a life span B a human being has a self-repairing capacity C no can is expected to last longer than a life D a car cannot be restored to its original state once damaged

37、Text 3 The most effective attacks against globalization are usually not those related to economics. Instead, they are social, ethical and, above all, cultural. These arguments surfaced amid the protests in Seattle in 1999 and more recently in Davos, Bangkok and Prague. They say this: the disappearan

38、ce of national borders and the establishment of a world interconnected by markets will deal a death blow to regional and national cultures, and to the traditions, customs, myths and mores that determine each countrys or regions cultural identity. Since most of the world is incapable of resisting the

39、 invasion of cultural products from developed countries that inevitably trails the great transnational corporations, North American culture will ultimately impose itself, standardizing the world and annihilating its richness of diverse cultures. In this manner, all other peoples, and not just the sm

40、all and weak ones, will lose their identity, their soul, and will become no more than 21st-century colonies modeled after the cultural norms of a new imperialism that, in addition to ruling over the planet with its capital, military might and scientific knowledge, will impose on others its language

41、and its ways of thinking, believing, enjoying and dreaming. Even though I believe this cultural argument against globalization is unacceptable, we should recognize that deep within it lies an unquestionable truth. This century, the world in which we will live will be less picturesque and filled with

42、 less local color than the one we left behind. The festivals, attire(穿着), customs, ceremonies, rites and beliefs that in the past gave humanity its culturally and racially variety are progressively disappearing or confining themselves to minority sectors, while the bulk of society abandons them and

43、adopts others more suited to the reality of our time. All countries of the earth experience this process, some more quickly than others, but it is not due to globalization. Rather, it is due to modernization, of which the former is effect, not cause. It is possible to lament, certainly, that this pr

44、ocess occurs, and to feel nostalgia(恋旧) for the past ways of life that, particularly from our comfortable vantage point of the present, seem full of amusement, originality and color. But this process is unavoidable. In theory, perhaps, a country could keep this identity, but only if-like certain rem

45、ote tribes in Africa or the Amazon-it decides to live in total isolation, cutting off all exchange with other nations and practicing self瞫ufficiency. A cultural identity preserved in this form would take that society black to prehistoric standards of living. It is true that modernization makes many

46、forms of traditional life disappear. But at the same time, it opens opportunities and constitutes an important step forward for a society as a whole. That is why, when given the option to choose freely, peoples, sometimes counter to what their leaders or intellectual traditionalists would like, opt for modernization without the slightest ambiguity. 31. Which of the following is the argument against globalization? A The world will become a globalized economic entity. B Cultural id
