自考英语二（00015）2012年4月真题试卷及答案

In order to solve the pollution problems that began from the mid-20th century, a number of environmental protection organizations have formed. However, the most important pollution fighter is perhaps each individual person. If everyone makes the effort, pollution can be greatly reduced.In a way, some pollution can be controlled in daily life. For example, solid wastes are a major cause of land pollution, but many wastes, such as empty cans, glass bottles, old car tires and newspapers, can be recycled. Some places pay people to bring in used goods for recycling. Moreover, one major factor in air pollution is that many people use cars needlessly. So public transportation, bicycles, and walking are all good choices to prevent pollution

Toys worldwide share the characteristic of________.

The development of the rattle reflects________.

The history of toys indicates that toys are not________.

The passage indicates that toys can help children to________.

Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.There seems never to have been a civilization without toys, but when and how they develop is unknown. They probably came about just to give children something to do.In the ancient world, as is today, most boys played with some kinds of toys and most girls with others. In societies where social roles are rigidly determined, boys pattern their play after the activities of their fathers and girls after the tasks of their mothers. This is true because boys and girls are being prepared, even in play, to step into the roles and responsibilities of the adult world.What is remarkable about the history of toys is not so much how they changed over the centuries but how much they have remained the same. The changes have been mostly in terms of skill, process, and technology. It is the universality of toys with regard to their development in all parts of the world and their persistence to the present that is marvelous. In some African nations, the Americas, China, and Japan, generally the same kinds of toys appeared. Variations depended on local customs and ways of life because toys imitate their surroundings. Nearly every civilization had dolls (玩偶), little weapons, toy soldiers tiny animals and vehiclesBecause toys can be generally regarded as a kind of art form, they have not been subject to leaps in technology that characterize inventions for adult use. The progress from the wheel to the ox-cart to the automobile is a direct line of upward movement. The progress from a rattle(拨浪鼓) used by a baby in3000 BC to one used by an infant today, however, is not characterized by invention Each rattle is the product of the artistic tastes of the times and subject to the limitations of available materials.

31. According to paragraph 1, it remains unknown________.

The issue concerning the use of locational data should be solved by________.

The use of locational data should be regulated to protect the owner's________.

Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.

Smart phones do many things these days: make and receive calls, send e-mails, take photos and videos. But one thing they can do that phone companies don’t advertise is keep a secret watch on you. As long as you don't leave home without your phone, that handy gadget keeps a record of everywhere you go—a record the government can then get from your telephone company.When you carry a cell phone, it is constantly sending signals about where you are. It signals the nearby cell-phone towers about every seven seconds so it can be ready to make and receive calls. When it does, the phone is also telling the company that owns the towers where you are at that moment--data the company then stores away. There is also a second kind of locational data that phone companies have, thanks to a unit in most smart phones now for locating positions. This is even more accurate--unlike the towers, which can only tell a general area where you may be, this unit can often reveal exactly where you are at any given moment within a matter of meters.The American government's position is that it should be able to get most of this data if it decides it is relevant to an investigation, with no need for a search permit. If the government needs a permit, it would have to show a judge evidence that there was probable cause to believe that the cell-phone user committed a crime. Without this requirement, the government can get locational data pretty much anytime it wants.The law is unclear about how easy it should be for the government to get its hands on this locational data. A federal court pronounced last week that in some cases the government may need a search permit. That' s a step forward, but it's not good enough. Some hearings on this issue are being held. It is time for Congress to act. It should make clear that information from cell phones is deeply private, and that without a search permit the government cannot have it.

26.The word "gadget"(para. 1) probably refers to________.

The American government holds that________.

A cell-phone owner can be precisely located because his phone________.

It is indicated that the writer almost has no time at night________.

In the passage the writer mainly talks about________.

Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.

My top priorities are school, sports and my family. Track and tennis are the sports I enjoy most. During the track season, I have practice Monday through Friday, mostly at 7: 30 a.m. Tennis is a yearlong sport for me, and I never get a break. I don't mind this, and look forward to practices, which are three hours, three times a week. The only thing i dislike about running and tennis is when they conflict. It pains me whenever I have to choose between them.I also take school extremely seriously. I am a straight-A student and am looking to keep this up. Unlike many parents, mine do not get angry if i get a grade lower than an A They simply advise me to go talk to my teachers to find out if there is any work I could do to bring the grade up. I appreciate this because it seems as though I get enough criticism from myself.One of my greatest struggles is trying to find time to spend with my family and friends. I hate that something has to be sacrificed. For me, that thing is my friends. At times my friends get angry with me, which annoys me because I really want to hang out with them but cant because of my time constraints. I wish they knew that I miss them. i also long for the nights when I used to relax with my family. Now I come home from meets and practices to eat and finish homework. Many times I am exhausted.It may sound as though there must be someone making me live in this manner. Well, there is: me. I choose to spend my time this way, even though it may mean less time for friends, family and relaxing. Call me crazy, but the reason for my overscheduled lifestyle is the love I have for all my chosen activities. Just like with my schooling, I have long-term goals for the sports with which I am involved. Those goals drive me to keep up the hard work I enjoy what I do, not planning to stop anytime soon.

21.The writer feels painful when he has to________.

A straight-A student probably means________.

The writer thanks his parents for________.
