託福閱讀全真試題1

Question 1-8

When Jules Verne wrote Journey to the Center of the Earth in 1864, there were many conflicting theories about the nature of the Earth's interior. Some geologists thought that it contained a highly compressed ball of incandescent gas, while others suspected that it consisted of separate shells, each made of a different material. Today, well over a century later, there is still little direct evidence of what lies beneath our feet. Most of our knowledge of the Earth's interior comes not from mines or boreholes, but from the study of seismic waves - powerful pulses of energy released by earthquakes.

The way that seismic waves travel shows that the Earth's interior is far from uniform. The continents and the seabed are formed by the crust - a thin sphere of relatively light, solid rock. Beneath the crust lies the mantle, a very different layer that extends approximately halfway to the Earth's center. There the rock is the subject of a battle between increasing heat and growing pressure.

In its high levels, the mantle is relatively cool; At greater depths, high temperatures make the rock behave more like a liquid than a solid. Deeper still, the pressure is even more intense, preventing the rock from melting in spite of a higher temperature.

Beyond a depth of around 2,900 kilometers, a great change takes place and the mantle gives way to the core. Some seismic waves cannot pass through the core and others are bent by it. From this and other evidence, geologists conclude that the outer core is probably liquid, with a solid center. It is almost certainly made of iron, mixed with smaller amounts of other elements such as nickel.

The conditions in the Earth's core make it a far more alien world than space. Its solid iron heart is subjected to unimaginable pressure and has a temperature of about 9,000oF. Although scientists can speculate about its nature, neither humans nor machines will ever be able to visit it.

4. Which of the following is a primary characteristic of the Earth's mantle?

(A) Light, solid rock

(B) Uniformity of composition

(C) Dramatically increasing pressure

(D) Compressed, incandescent gas

5. The phrase "gives way to" in line 24 is closest in meaning to

(A) runs along

(B) rubs against

(C) turns into

(D) floats on

6. The word "it" in line 26 refers to

(A) mantle

(B) core

(C) change

(D) depth

7. Why does the author state in line 30-31 that the Earth's core is "more alien" than space?

(A) Government funds are not available to study the Earth's core.

(B) Scientists aren't interested in the characteristics of the Earth's core.

(C) It is impossible to go to the Earth's core to do research.

(D) The Earth's core is made of elements that are dangerous to humans.

8. The word "speculate" in line 33 is closest in meaning to

(A) report

(B) learn

(C) worry

(D) hypothesize

Question 9-20

Despite the road improvements of the turnpike era (1790- 1830)。 Americans continued as in colonial times to depend wherever possible on water routes for travel and transportation. The larger rivers, especially the Mississippi and the Ohio, became increasingly useful as steamboats grew in number and improved in design.

River boats carried to New Orleans the corn and other crops of northwestern farmers, the cotton and tobacco of southwestern planters. From New Orleans, ships took the cargoes on to eastern seaports. Neither the farmers of the west nor the merchants of the east were completely satisfied with this pattern of trade. Farmers could get better prices for their crops if the alternative existed of sending them directly eastward to market and merchants could sell larger quantities of their manufactured goods if these could be transported more directly and more economically to the west.

三、託福口語

獨立口語

Task 1重複2020年10月家考原題Some people prefer to shop regularly at a store that is close and convenient to them, even though it might be expensive. Others prefer to shop regularly at a store with the lowest prices, even if it is far away. Which do you prefer? Use details and examples to explain your opinion.

參考思路:我選擇近的store即使可能他的商品會貴一點,因為去遠的地方不僅要花更多的時間,也要花交通費;而且回來的路上提滿了東西很不方便。

綜合口語

Task 2About School of History planning to cancel all monthly lectures and seminars because of the high costs to invite scholars and students lacking interests.

閱讀:學校想要暫停每月的歷史公開課,一是學生們都不太感興趣,二是請教授的費用太貴了。

聽力:反對可以請本地老師來講,這樣能夠節省路費,減少花銷。

Task 3商業中的 Creative Grouping: 把商品重新進行分類和定位,改變它的 設計、定價,廣告方式等,讓其獲得更好的銷量。舉了一個手錶的例子,傳統的手錶因為材料很貴,所以售價高昂,但一家公司將手錶的材料換成了塑料,並且顏色和樣式更加新穎,很快就吸引了很多的顧客。

Task 4About animals as urban exploiters:關於urban exploiter的特徵1. change diets 改變了飲食2. change biological features 一些原有的特徵沒有改變託福寫作綜合寫作

Speculations on why the Vikings left Greenland維京人遺棄聚居地的原因

Reading閱讀部分Pros:1. food shortages caused by climate change氣候變化,導致食物來源減少

3. trade embargo of European Continent當地人曾和歐洲人有貿易,但後來被迫暫停了

四、Listening聽力部分

Cons:1. Vikings could have got sufficient food from fishing even though farming was negatively influenced.氣候的變化雖然使farming受到影響,但是科學家們發現,維京人主要以捕魚為生,他們可以通過捕魚來獲得食物來源。

2. They took away all valuable items, which suggests that if there had been clashes, they would not have enough time to carry those away.他們帶走了很多貴重的物品,如果是產生衝突而離開的話應該是沒有時間來帶走這些貴重物品的。
