Cattle have served humanity since prehistoric( 史前) days as beasts of burden and as supplier of leather, meat, and milk. Some of the earliest written records concern the sale of cattle. These valuable animals are unusual in that they do not have front teeth in their upper jaw. Instead they chew with their back teeth and gums (齿龈). Cows swallow their foodquickly and store it in the fat stomach or rumen, the first of the four compartments in the stomachs. Later the food passed into the second stomach or reticulum where it is rolled into little balls or resting,cows cough up these cuds and chew them more time the food passes into the third and then the fourth stomach, where digestion takes place. Bacteria in cow’s stomach aid in digesting the cellulose in terms of grass or hay.

专升本英语考试真题作文 第3篇

Until the 1980s, the American homeless population comprised (组成) mainly older males. Today, homelessness strikes much younger part of society. In fact, a 25-city survey by the U. S. Conference of Mayors in 1987 found that families with children make up the fastest growing part of the homeless population. Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient (变化无常的) and frequenty frightened student population creates additional problems -- both legal and educational -- for already overburdened (负担过重的) urban school administrators and teachers.

Estimates of the number of homeless Americans range from 350,000 to three million. Likewise, estimates of the number of homeless school children vary radically. A . Department of Education report, based on state estimates, states that there are 220,000 homeless school-age children, about a third of whom do not attend school on a regular basis, But the National Coalition for the Homeless estimates that there are at least two times as many homcless children, and that less than half of them attend school regularly.

One part of the homeless population that is particularly difcult to count consists of the _throwaway_ youths who have been cast of their homes. The Elementary School Center in New York City estimates that there are 1 .5 million of them, many of whom are not counted as children because they do not stay in family shelters and tend to live by themselves on the streets.

Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children. The educational provisions of the McKinney Act are based on the belief that all homeless children have the right to a free, appropriate education.

16. It is implied in the first paragraph that______

A. the writer himself is homeless, even in his eighties

B. many older homeless residents are going on strike in 25 cities

C. there is a serious shortage of academic facilities (设施).

D. homeless children are denied the opportunity of receiving free education

[解析]

推理判断题，根据第一段Many homeless children gather in inner cities; this transient (变化无常的) and frequently frightened student population creates additional problems- both legal and educational- for already overburdened (负担过重的) urban school administrators and teachers可知，在教育设施方面还存在很大的缺口，故选C。

18. One part of the homeless population is difficult to estimate. The reason might well be________.

A. the homeless children are too young to be counted as children

C. the homeless children usually stay outside school

D. some homeless children are deserted by their families

20. The passage mainly deals with_______.

A. the legal problems of the homeless children

B. the educational problems of homeless children

C. the social status of older males

D. estimates on the homeless population

[解析]

根据Federal law, the Stewart B. McKinney Homeless Assistance Act of 1987, includes a section that addresses the educational needs of homeless children.
