2016 年 11 月北京成人学士学位英语真题及答案

Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)

Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is

followed by some

questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four

choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide 0,7 the best choice and

blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 1

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:

As the National Park Service celebrates its 100th anniversary （周年纪

念）, President Barack Obama has announced the establishment of one new

national monument, and the expansion (扩大) of another. In Maine, more than

87,500 acres of forest will become government-protected parkland for the first

time. In Hawaii, a national monument created by President George W. Bush in

2006 will expand to about 582,578 square miles, four times its current size.

Obama has now created or enlarged 26 national monuments during his

presidency. As a result, his administration says, Obama has protected more of

the nation's land than any other president has. But some residents and

officials, in both Maine and Hawaii, object to the plans. (76) They say their

local economies depend on the use of these areas.

In establishing this monument, Obama took the side of conservationists

(自然资源保护者) who want laws to protect wild lands. Creating a national park

usually requires the approval of Congress. But a 1906 federal law allows the

president to establish national monuments on his own.

The land's new status as a monument means that mining and drilling

operations are forbidden there. (77) It may also severely limit activities such

as logging, road-building, and hunting. Some of Maine's politicians who want to

protect the state's logging industries say Obama should not have acted alone.

They say Washington should not tell the states how to use their land,

especially when people's jobs are at stake. Maine politician Susan Collins said

the president should have listened to Maine lawmakers and residents, as well as

to the U.S. Congress, before making his decision.

However, those who support the president's decision say the

establishment of the new monument will lead to new jobs through tourism.
