2015 年 9 月公共英语三级考试真题及答案
1-25 略
Directions:
Read the following two texts. Answer the questions on each text by
choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on your ANSWER SHEET.
Text 1
Five-year-old Elia arrived at school with a big box of colored pencils. Her
friend, Anna, offeted to exchange her set of markers for the brand-new
pencils. Elia agreed, but soon discovered that the markers were dried up.
"That's not fair!" cried Elia to her teacher. “I want my new pencils back.”
After some tears and negotiation, the teacher helped the girls set things
right by returning the items to their original owners.
Later that day, at story time, the teacher shared the picture book classic
A Bargain for Frances. Though the conflict in the story is just over a broken
tea set, the message about fair play was not lost on the children. The book
was helpful in exploring a small, yet significant, life lesson. Stories are vital
to the way we process and experience life events and the feelings that
surround us. The ability to create, share, and respond to stories is one of the
vital characteristics of being human. In fact, the human brain is programmed
to see patterns and become fascinated in the plot development of stories,
finally storing them in long-term memory. As a result, the brain is a
remarkably effective processor of stories, both real and fictional.
High-quality picture books are a good blend of art and literature that
attracts kids' imagination and communicates an idea in an effective way.
These books me perfect teaching tools, as they deal with the powerful
emotions that kids feel, model effective coping strategies, and present
complex concepts in appropriate ways. In addition, according to brain
research, the picture book complements words with what leaves the most
permanent impression: images. The pictures in books are distinctive from
the fleeting images kids see on television in that they remain on the page,
ready to be revisited, touched, and commented upon.
Whether we share stories about families, historical events, or emotions,
stories are a way to sum up life's memorable moments and lasting lessons.
We can control the power of literature and use it to develop positive
character in young kids by reading often, choosing suitable books, and
enjoying stories together.

Text 2
We have heard a lot about the health benefits of tea, especially green
tea. It is high in poly-phenols, compounds with strong antioxidant activity
that in test-tube and animal models show anti- cancer and heart-protective
effects. Good clinical studies are few, however, and although physicians tell
their patients to drink green tea, there hasn't been any definite proof of the
value of that advice.
A team of Japanese researchers was able to link green tea consumption
with decreased mortality from many causes-including heart disease. The
researchers tracked 40,530 healthy adults ages40 to 79 in a region of
northeastern Japan where most people drink green tea, following them for up
to 11 years. Those who drank five or more cups of green tea a day had
significantly lower mortality rates than those who drank less than one cup a
day. There were also fewer deaths from cardiovascular disease.
But no such association was seen with deaths from cancer. Nor was
consumption of oolong or black tea connected with any decrease in
mortality. Those teas are easier to be combined with oxy- gen in processing,
which not only darkens the color of the leaves and changes their flavor but
also reduces their polyphenol content.
Coffee is more complicated. It has received both gold stars and black
marks in medical literature. It, too, contains antioxidants, although they are
less well studied than tea polyphenols. Evidence for the health benefits of
coffee is growing, however. A group of investigators from Finland, Italy and
the Netherlands reports that coffee seems to protect against age-related
decline in mental capacity. The scientists studied 676 healthy men born from
1900 to 1920 and followed them for 10 years, using standardized measures
of brain function. Their conclusion: the men who consumed coffee had
significantly less decline in mental capacity than those who didn't. Three
cups a day seemed to provide the most protection.
Population studies like those help us form assumptions about
relationships between dietary habits and long-term health. We still have to
test our suppositions in controlled conditions, and measure the effects of
coffee and tea on various systems of the body.
31. Physicians often tell their patients to drink green tea because
A. its medical value has been proved

33. The text indicates that black tea differs from green tea in that
A. it can retain the color of its leaves
B. it can reduce cancer-related deaths
C. it contains less polyphenol content
D. it is stronger in flavor than the latter
34.Coffee is beneficial to one' s health because
A.it has more antioxidants than green tea
B. it slows down the rate of brain aging
C. it lowers the rate of natural mortality
D. it keeps systems of the body active
35. The text indicates that the relationships between dietary habits and
long-term health

Directions:
Read the texts from a magazine section called "Letters" in which five
people wrote about on- line shopping. For questions 36- 40, match the name
of each person to one of the statements ( A-G) given below. Mark your
answers on your ANSWER SHEET.
Jennifer:
In your article about online shopping being the newest and easiest way
to shop, you said that computers will replace shopping malls sooner or. later
because they make buying things faster and ,cheaper. But don't you think
that the entire point of shopping is to spend leisure time with friends while
doing something necessary. Shopping is not just a quick task. It is, in fact, an
entire way of life.
Paul:
I am a great collector of all manner of hard-to-find items such as out-ofprint books and antiques. Purchasing in physical stores would mean roundthe-world travel and years of effort. I can get the same result in a few hours
on eBay, and often at bargain prices. I am quite well-off, but buy very few
consumer items available in regular shops. I have many friends and
acquaintances with the same approach.
Mike:
My wife buys online often. I have not heard complaints or dissatisfaction.
She can compare with different online vendors' prices after she has decided
what she wants. It's delivered to the door, a big time savings and gas
savings. If I need something, I check online fist and see what it costs and
then decide where to buy, local stores or online. Online has the advantage
most of the time.
Henry:
Virtually all online stores make you register. But, I don't need another
username and password to remember. I will only buy online if I cannot find
something locally. Even though shipping is fast, I'd rather drive across town
and pay more to be able to bring home a new gadget the same day. And,
most of the time, there is no difference in price between local stores and
online stores.
Jeff:
If you think the prices are the same online as they ate locally, you're
dealing with the wrong online retailers. I'm an online shopping veteran and I
always save quite a bit on my large-dollar purchases. With a little research
experience, I've easily saved thousands of dollars over the last several years.
Besides, shipping on most items is reasonable and you don't even pay taxes
99.9% of the time.
Now match the name of each person (36- 40) to the appropriate
statement.
Note: there are two extra statements.
Statements
36. Jennifer
37. Paul
38. Mike
39. Henry
40. Jeff
A. I'll buy online only when I have to.
B. You can enjoy steep discounts with most online sellers.
