湖南广播电视大学开放教育英语专业专科综合英语(4)课程期末终结考试试题

Directions: Each of the passages below is followed by some questions. For each question there are four answers marked A, B, C and D. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.

Questions 21~25 are based on the following passage.

Beverly Schnell is a middle-aged woman who lives alone in a nice old house near Milwaukee. The house needs work. It has a vacant living space on the second floor. So Schnell decided to rent the space to someone who could do repairs. In exchange, she would cut the rent.

She placed an ad in a local paler that read: “Apartment for rent, one bedroom, and electric included, mature Christian handyman.” Then the Metropolitan Milwaukee Fair Housing Council —which looks through classified ads trying to find discriminatory rental or sales ads—ran to a state agency and tattled on Schnell.

For what? For starters, sex discrimination. That’s because she used the term “handyman”. And religious discrimination because she stated “mature Christian handyman”.

Schnell found herself accused by the state of violating Wisconsin’s fair-housing law, the ad snoops offered a deal. They would drop the case. But it would cost her $ 500 for their lawyer’s fees and $ 50 for their effort.

Now she knows better. She was found guilty and ordered to pay the housing council “reasonable attorney’s fees”, which the council now estimates at $ 8000. Schnell hasn’t much choice but to appeal, and she still hasn’t found someone to pound in a few nails. 21. Beverly Schnel1 ______.

A. wanted to buy a new house B. had a building in Milwaukee C. would cut the rent D. wanted to rent an apartment 22. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

A. Beverly Schnell’s house is too old to live in. B.Bevεr1y Schnell lives on the second f1oor. C. Beverly Schnell wanted to rent rooms. D. She owned a local newspaper. 23. She was accused of ______.

A. placing an ad in a local paper B. not paying $ 550 C. violating Wisconsin’s fair-housing law D. cutting the rent 24. Had Schnell been careful enough in planning the ad _______.

A. she could get a handyman B. she would not have met the trouble. C. she would not pay the money D. she might not be accused 25. The best title of the passage is ______.

A. Rent Control B. Beverly Schnell C. How to Rent a House D. Accusing Questions 26~30 are based on the following passage.

We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when 1 broke up with Helen?” “When I got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Pau—why didn’t I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it’s too late.

湖南广播电视大学开放教育英语专业专科综合英语(4)课程期末终结考试试题

Why do we go wrong about our friends—or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don’t really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You are a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You’re a lucky guy,” that’s being friendly. But “lucky dog”? There’s a bit of envy in those words. Maybe he doesn’t see it himself. But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.

“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another. T could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important. It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night.

How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.

26. The author ______ when he recalls some things that happened between him and hiss friends.

A. feels happy, thinking of how nice his friends were to him

B. feels he may not have “read” his friends’ true feelings correctly C. thinks it was a mistake to have broken up with his friends D. is sorry that his friends let him down

27. From the sentence “You’re a lucky dog”, we can conclude that ______.

A. the speaker of this sentence is just being friendly B. it means the same as “You’re a lucky guy” C. the word “dog” shouldn’t be applied to people

D. sometimes the words used by a speaker give a clue to the feeling behind the words 28. The main purpose of this passage is to tell us how to ______.

A. avoid mistakes about money and friends B. size up people

C. avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you D. keep people friendly without trusting them

29. In listening to a person the important thing is ______.

A. to notice his tone, his posture and the look in his eyes B. to listen to how he pronounces his words

C. to check his words against his manner, his tone of voice and his posture D. not to believe what he says

30. If you followed the advice of the writer, you would ______.

A. be fortunate enough to have a date on Saturday evenings B. misunderstand what people say

C. be able to avoid making mistakes about money

D. be careful to weigh what people say to determine their real meaning IV. Translation (15 points, 3 points to each)
