2001年考研英语真题及解析
2001年全国攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试英语试题Part I Cloze TestDirections：For each numbered blank in the following passage, there are four choices marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Choose the best one and mark y our answer on ANSWER SHEET 1 by blackening the corresponding lette r in the brackets with a pencil.

For each questions there are four answers marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Then mark your answer on ANSWER SHEET 1 by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets with a pencil.(40 points)Passage 1Specialisation can be seen as a response to the problem of an increasing accumulation of scientific knowledge. By splitting up the subject matter into smaller units，one man could continue to handle the information and use it as the basis for further research. But specialisation was only one of a series of related developments in science affecting the process of communication. Another was the growing professionalisation of scientific activity.No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word “amateur” does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values. The growth of specialisation in the nineteenth century, with its consequent requirement of a longer, more complex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based especially on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United Kingdom.A comparison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptabl e research paper. Thus, in the nineteenth century, local geological studies represented worthwhile research in their own right; but, in the twentieth century, local studies have increasingly become acceptable to professionals only if they incorporate, and reflect on, the wider geological picture. Amateurs, on the other hand, have continued to pursue local studies in the old way. The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological journals harder for amateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the nineteenth century and then by several local geological journals in the twentieth century. As a logical consequence of this development, separate journals have now appeared aimed mainly towards either professional or amateur readership. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, whereas the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.Although the process of professionalisation and specialisation was already well under way in British geology during the nineteenth century, its full consequences were thus delayed until the twentieth century. In science generally, however, the nineteenth century must be reckoned as the crucial period for this change in the structure of science.21. The growth of specialisation in the 19th century might be more clearly seen in scien ces such as _______.[AJ sociology and chemistry [B] physics and psychology[C] sociology and psychology [D] physics and chemistry22. We can infer from the passage that _______.[A] there is little distinction between specialisation and professionalisation[B] amateurs can compete with professionals in some areas of science[C] professionals tend to welcome amateurs into the scientific community[D] amateurs have national academic societies but no local ones23. The author writes of the development of geology to demonstrate ______.[A] the process of specialisation and professionalisation[B] the hardship of amateurs in scientific study[C] the change of policies in scientific publications[D] the discrimination of professionals against amateurs24. The direct reason for specialisation is _______.[A] the development in communication[B] the growth of professionalisation[C] the expansion of scientific knowledge[D] the splitting up of academic societiesPassage 2A great deal of a ttention is being paid today to the so-called digital divide-the division of the world into the info (information) rich and the info poor. And that divide does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty y ears ago. What was less visible then, however, were the new, positive forces that work against the digital divide. There are reasons to be optimistic.There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized, it is in the interest of business to universalize access-after all, the more people online, the more potential customers there are. More and more governments, afraid their countries will be left behind, want to spread Internet access. Within the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the planet will he netted together. As a result, I now believe the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the years ahead. And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for c ombating world poverty that we’ve ever had.Of course, the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to defeat poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we have. But it has enormous potential.To take advantage of this tool, some impoverished countries will have to get over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices with respect to foreign investment. Countries that still think foreign investment is an invasion of their sovereignty might well study the history of infrastructure（the basic structural foundations of a society）in the United States. When the United States built its industrial infrastructure, it didn’t have the capital to do so. And that is why America’s Second Wave infrastructure-including roads, harbors, highway s, ports and so on-were built with foreign investment. The English, the Germans, the Dutch and the French were investing in Britain’s former colony. They financed them. Immigrant Americans built them. Guess who owns them now? The Americans. I believe the same thing would be true in places like Brazil or anywhere else for that matter. The more foreign capital you have helping you build y our Third Wave infrastructure, which today is an electronic infrastructure, the better off y ou’re going to be. Th at doesn't mean ly ing down and becoming fooled, or letting foreign corporations run uncontrolled. But it does mean recognizing how important they can be in building theenergy and telecom infrastructures needed to take full advantage of the Internet.25. Digital divide is something _______.[A] getting worse because of the Internet[B] the rich countries are responsible for[C] the world must guard against[D] considered positive today26. Governments attach importance to the Internet because it _______.[A] offers economic potentials[B] can bring foreign funds[C] can soon wipe out world poverty[D] connects people all over the world27. The writer mentioned the case of the United States to justify the policy of _______.[A] providing financial support overseas*B+ preventing foreign capital’s control[C] building industrial infrastructure[D] accepting foreign investment28. It seems that now a country’s economy depands much on ______.[A] how well-developed it is electronically[B] whether it is prejudiced against immigrants*C+ whether it adopts America’s industrial pattern[D] how much control it has over foreign corporationsPassage 3Why do so many Americans distrust what they read in their newspapers? The American Society of Newspaper Editors is try ing to answer this painful question. The organization is deep into a long self-analy sis known as the journalism credibility project.Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low-level findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes, combined with lots of headscratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want.But the sources of distrust go way deeper. Most journalists learn to see the world through a set of standard templates (patterns) into which they p lug each day’s events. In other words, there is a conventional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise confusions news.There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers which helps explain why the “standard templates”of the newsroom seem alien many readers. In a recent survey, questionnaires were sent to reporters in five middle size cities around the country, plus one large metropolitan area. Then res idents in these communities were phoned at random and asked the same questions.Replies show that compared with other Americans, journalists are more likely to live in upscale neighborhoods, have maids, own Mercedeses, and trade stocks, and they’re less l ikely to go to church, do volunteer work, or put down roots in community.Reporters tend to be part of a broadly defined social and cultural elite, so their work tends to reflect theconventional values of this elite. The astonishing distrust of the news media isn’t rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills but in the daily clash of world views between reporters and their readers.This is an explosive situation for any industry, particularly a declining one. Here is a troubled business that keeps hiring employ ees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers. Then it sponsors lots of symposiums and a credibility project dedicated to wondering why customers are annoy ed and fleeing in large numbers. But it never seems to get around to noticing the cultural and class biases that so many former buy ers are complaining about. If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class.29. What is the passage mainly about?[A] needs of the readers all over the world.[B] causes of the public disappointment about newspapers.[C] origins of the declining newspaper industry.[D] aims of a journalism credibility project.30. The results of the journalism credibility project turned out to be ______.[A] quite trustworthy [B] somewhat contradictory[C] very illuminating [D] rather superficial31. The basic problem of journalists as pointed out by the writer lies in their ______.[A] working attitude [B] conventional lifesty le[C] world outlook [D] educational background32. Despite its efforts, the newspaper industry still cannot satisfy the readers owing to its_______.[A] failure to realize its real problem[B] tendency to hire annoy ing reporters[C] likeliness to do inaccurate reporting[D] prejudice in matters of race and genderPassage 4The world is going through the biggest wave of mergers and acquisitions ever witnessed. The process sweeps from hy peractive America to Europe and reaches the emerging countries with unsurpassed might. Many in these countries are looking at this process and worrying: "Won't the wave of business concentration turn into an uncontrollable anti-competitive force?"There's no question that the big are getting bigger and more powerful. Multinational corporations accounted for less than 20% of international trade in 1982. T oday the figure is more than 25% and growing rapidly. International affiliates account for a fast-growing segment of production in economies that open up and welcome foreign investment. In Argentina, for instance, after the reforms of the early 1990s, multinationals went from 43% to almost 70% of the industrial production of the 200 largest firms. This phenomenon has created serious concerns over the role of smaller economic firms, of national businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world economy.I believe that the most important forces behind the massive M&A wa ve are the same that underlie the globalization process: falling transportation and communication costs, lower trade and investment barriers and enlarged markets that require enlarged operations capable of meeting customers' demands. All these are beneficial, not detrimental, to consumers. As productivity grows, the world's wealth increases.Examples of benefits or costs of the current concentration wave are scanty. Y et it is hard to imagine that the merger of a few oil firms today could re-create the same threats to competition that were feared nearly a century ago in the U.S., when the Standard Oil trust was broken up. The mergers of telecom companies, such as WorldCom, hardly seem to bring higher prices for consumers or a reduction in the pace of technical progress. On the contrary, the price of communications is coming down fast. In cars, too, concentration is increasing-witness Daimler and Chry sler, Renault and Nissan-but it does not appear that consumers are being hurt.Yet the fact remains that the merger movement must be watched. A few weeks ago, Alan Greenspan warned against the megamergers in the banking industry. Who is going to supervise, regulate and operate as lender of last resort with the gigantic banks that are being created? Won't multinationals shift production from one place to another when a nation gets too strict about infringements to fair competition? And should one country take upon itself the role of “defending competition” on issues that affect many other nations, as in the U S. vs. Microsoft case ?33. What is the typical trend of businesses today?[A] to take in more foreign funds. [B] to invest more abroad.[C] to combine and become bigger. [D] to trade with more countries.34. According to the author, one of the driving forces behind M&A wave is ______[A] the greater customer demands. [B] a surplus supply for the market.[C] a growing productivity. [D] the increase of the world's wealth.35. From paragraph 4 we can infer that ______.[A] the increasing concentration is certain to hurt consumers[B] W orldCom serves as a good example of both benefits and costs[C] the costs of the globalization process are enormous[D] the Standard Oil trust might have threatened competition36. Toward the new business wave, the writer's attitude can he said to be _______.[A] optimistic [B] objective[C] pessimistic [D] biasedPassage 5When I decided to quit my full time employment it never occurred to me that I might become a part of a new international trend. A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my professional progress prompted me to abandon my relatively high profile career although, in the manner of a disgraced government minister, I covered my exit by claimi ng “I wanted to spend more time with my family”.Curiously, some two-and-a-half years and two novels later, my experiment in what the Americans term “downshifting”has turned my tired excuse into an absolute reality. I have been transformed from a passiona te advocate of the philosophy of “having it all”, preached by Linda Kelsey for the past seven y ears in the pages of She magazine, into a woman who is happy to settle for a bit of everything.I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of “juggling y our life”, and making the alternative move into “downshifting” brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status. No thing could persuade me to return to the kind of life Kelsey used to advocate and I once enjoyed: 12-hour working days, pressured deadlines, the fearful strain of office politics and the limitations of being a parent on “quality time”.In America, the move away from juggling to a simpler, less materialistic lifesty le is a well-established trend. Downshifting-also known in America as “voluntary simplicity” has, ironically, even bred a new area of what might be termed anticonsumerism. There are a number of bestselling downshifting self-help books for people who want to simplify their lives; there are newsletter's, such as The Tightwad Gazette, that give hundreds of thousands of Americans useful tips on anything from recycling their cling-film to making their own soap; there are even support groups for those who want to achieve the mid- '90s equivalent of dropping out.While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline——after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late’80s——and is still linked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle-class downshifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through th e’80s, downshifting in the mid-'90s is not so much a search for the mythical good life——growing y our own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one——as a personal recognition of your limitations.37. Which of the following is true according to paragraph 1?[A] Full-time employment is a new international trend.[B] The writer was compelled by circumstances to leave her job.*C+ “A lateral move” means stepping out of full-time employment.[D] The writer was only too eager to spend more time with her family.38. The writer’s experiment shows that downshifting ____[A] enables her to realize her dream[B] helps her mold a new philosophy of life[C] prompts her to abandon her high social status[D] leads her to accept the doctrine of She magazine39. “Juggling one’s life” probably means living a life characterized by_____.[A] non-materialistic lifestyle [B] a bit of everything[C] extreme stress [D] anti-consumerism40. According to the passage, downshifting emerged in the U.S. as a result of _____*A+ the quick pace of modern life *B+ man’s adventurous spirit*C+ man’s search for mythical experiences *D+ the economic situationPart III English-Chinese TranslationDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Y our translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (15 points)In less than 30 years’ time the Star Trek holodeck will be a reality. Direct links between the brain’s nervous sy stem and a computer will also create full sensory virtual environments, allowing virtual vacations like those in the film Total Recall.41）There will be television chat shows hosted by robots, and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend. 42）Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips, computers with in-builtpersonalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools, relaxation will be in front of smell television, and digital age will have arrived.According to BT’s futurologist, Ian Pearson, these are among the developments scheduled for the first few decades of the new millennium（a period of 1,000 years）, when supercomputers will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life.43）Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place. Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine, including an extended life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs coming into use between now and 2040.Pearson also predicts a breakthrough in computer-human links. “By linking directly to our nervous sy stem, computers could pick up what we feel and, hopefully, simulate feeling too so that we can start to develop full sensory environments, rather like the holidays i n Total Recall or the Star Trek holodeck, ” he say s. 44）But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration: “It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century.”Through his research, Pearson is able to put dates to most of the breakthroughs that can be predicted. However, there are still no forecasts for when faster-than-light travel will be available, or when human cloning will be perfected, or when time travel will be possible. But he does expect social problems as a result of technological advances. A boom in neighborhood surveillance cameras will, for example, cause problems in 2010, while the arrival of sy nthetic lifelike robots will mean people may not be able to distinguish between their human friends and the droids.45）And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder—kitchen rage.Section V Writing46.

2001年考研英语真题及解析
2001年考研英语真题及解析考研对于众多学子来说，是一场重要的挑战。
而英语作为其中的关键科目，每年的真题都备受关注。
2001 年的考研英语真题，也有着其独特的特点和考察重点。
首先，我们来看看阅读理解部分。
这部分题目涵盖了各种题材，包括科技、文化、社会等。
其中有一篇关于人工智能发展的文章，难度较大，需要考生具备较强的逻辑推理和词汇理解能力。
文章中的长难句较多，对于语法的掌握要求较高。
例如，“The potential of this work applied to healthcare is very great, but it could also lead to further concentration of power in the tech giants if safeguards are not put in place”这样的句子，不仅结构复杂，词汇也较为生僻。
在阅读理解的题目设置上，细节题、主旨题、推理题等各类题型均有出现。
细节题需要考生仔细从文中寻找关键信息，稍有疏忽就可能选错。
而主旨题则要求考生对整篇文章有宏观的把握和理解。
推理题更是考验考生的思维能力，要在文中提供的信息基础上进行合理的推断。
接下来是完形填空。
2001 年的完形填空主要考查了词汇的运用和上下文的理解。
一些固定搭配和近义词的辨析成为了得分的关键。
例如，“take into account”（考虑到）和“take into consideration”（考虑），“in contrast”（相比之下）和“on the contrary”（相反）等，考生需要准确区分这些相似表达的细微差别。
翻译部分，句子结构多样，既有简单的主谓宾结构，也有复杂的复合句。
例如，“In a significant tightenin g of legal controls over the press, Lord Irvine, the Lord Chancellor, will introduce a draft bill that will propose making payments to witnesses illegal and will strictly control the amount of publicity that can be given to a case before a trial begins” 这个句子包含了多个从句，翻译时需要理清句子的逻辑关系。

meeting.“We’re had to make a difficult decision,”Mr.Tisich announced.“You see,your mother has been offered a post as codirector of a television station in Chicago.Unfortunately,the station is not here.After thinking long and hard about it,we’ve concluded that the right decision is to move to Chicago.”Marc looked shocked,while his sister Rachel breathlessly started asking when they’d be moving.“It’s surprising,but exciting!”she said. Marc simply said,“We can’t go — I can’t leave all my friends. I’d rather stay here and live with Tommy Lyons!”The Tisichs hoped that by the time they moved in August,Marc would grow more accustomed to the idea of leaving.However,he showed no signs of accepting the news,refusing to pack his belongings.When the morning of the move arrived,Marc was nowhere to be found.His parents called Tommy Lyons’s house,but Mrs. Lyons said she hadn’t seen Marc. Mrs. Tisich became increasingly concerned, while her husband felt angry with their son for behaving so irresponsibly.What they didn’t know was that Marc had started walking over to Tommy’s house,with a faint idea of hiding in the Lyons’s attic（阁楼）for a few days.But something happened on the way as Marc walked past all the familiar landscape of the neighborhood：the fence that he and his mother painted,the tree that he and his sister used to climb,the park where he and his father often took evening walks together.How much would these mean without his family,who make them special in the first place?Marc didn’t take the time to answer that question but instead hurried back to his house, wondering if there were any moving cartons（纸板箱）the right size to hold his record collection.71.The conflict in this story was caused by______.A.Marc and Rachel’s different tempersB.a quarrel between Tommy Lyons and Marc中鸿智业信息技术有限公司C.Marc’s disagreement with his parents about their moveD.Mr. and Mrs. Tisich’s remark of Marc’s irresponsibility72.Marc and Rachel’s reactions to the move were similar in the way that both were______.A.surprisedB.angry and upsetC.anxious for more detailsD.worried about packing73.The reason for Marc’s going home was that_______.A.he did not want to be left behindB.he realized his family was essential to himC.he hoped to reach an agreement with his parentsD.he wished to be a more responsible person74.What would most likely happen next?A.Marc would bring his records over to the Lyons’s house.B.Mr. and Mrs. Tisich would call the police.C.Marc would join his family for house moving.D.Mr. and Mrs. Tisich would start searching for Marc.2、(6分)Answer the following questions by using the information taken from a dictionary page.（You may read the questions first.）中鸿智业信息技术有限公司jaguar n. a type of large, yellow-colored cat with black markings found in the southwestern region of the U.S. and in Central and South America.jargon 1 n. speech that doesn’t make sense. 2 n. an unknown language that seems strange or impossible to understand. 3 n. a language made up of two or more other languages：His jargon was a mixture of French and English. 4 n. the special vocabulary of a field or profession：Her report on computers was filled with jargon.jaunt 1 n. a trip taken for fun. 2 v. to go on a brief pleasant trip：We jaunted to the country last Saturday.javelin 1 n. a spear most commonly used as a weapon or in hunting.2 n. a light-weight metal or wooden spear that is thrown in track-and-field contests. 3 n. the contest in which a javelin is thrown. 4 v. to strike, as with a javelin.jazz 1 n. a type of music that originated in New Orleans and is characterized by rhythmic beats. 2 n. popular dance music influenced by jazz. 3 n. slang empty talk.4 adj. of or like jazz：a jazz band, jazz records.jennet n. a small Spanish horse.75.Which meaning of the word javelin is used in the sentence below?At the competition,Jack drew his arm back and threw the javelin 50 yards.A.Definition 1B.Definition 2C.Definition 3D.Definition 476.Which meaning of the word jargon is used in the sentence below?Doctors often speak in medical jargon.中鸿智业信息技术有限公司 或 A.Definition 1B.Definition 2C.Definition 3D.Definition 477.What does the word jazz mean in the following sentence?Don’t give me that jazz,for I am a practical person.A.rhythmic beatsB.a type of musicC.a kind of danceD.meaningless talk3、(8分)Britain’s oldest man made his first visit to London yesterday at the age of 110. Mr. John Evans had never found the time or the money — to make the trip from his home near Swansea.But,when British Rail offered him an all-expenses-paid birthday trip to the capital,he just could not refuse.Until yesterday he had never been far from home,except for one trip to Aberdeen. Mr. Evans,who spent 60 years working as a miner in South Wales,almost made the journey to London once before,at the trun of the century.“There was a trip to the White City but it was ten shillings（1 shilling=1/20 pound）return from Swansea — too much I thought.All my money went to the family then,”he said.During the next two days Mr. Evans will be taken on a whistle-stop tour of London to see the sights.Top of his list is a visit to the Houses of Parliament（国会）.The only arrangement he does not care for is the wheelchair provided to move him about if he gets tired.“I don’t like the chair business — people will so think I am getting old,”he said.中鸿智业信息技术有限公司 或His secret for a long and healthy life has been well publicized — no alcohol,no cigarette and no anger. Before setting off from Swansea with his 76-year-old son, Amwel, he quipped,“I’m glad to see they’ve given me a return ticket.”78.It was reported that Mr. Evans’s healthy long life was to a certain extent due to his______.A.wine drinkingB.proper smokingd temperD.sense of humor79.Which of the following statements is true?A.A single trip from Mr. Evans’s home to the White City used to be ten shillings.B.The first place for Mr. Evans to visit is the Houses of Parliament.C.He appreciated people’s arrangement of a wheelchair during his visit.D.Mr. Evans once made the journey to London at the turn of the century.80.The word“quip”in the last sentence most probably means______.A.to make a witty remarkB.to express a happy messageC.to make a wishD.to tell a joke81.What might be the best title for this passage?A.110-Year-Old TouristB.Secret for Long and Healthy Life中鸿智业信息技术有限公司 或 C.Free Return TicketD.Sightseeing in London4、(8分)When we walk through the city , we all experience a kind of information overload but we pay attention only to those that are important to us. We don’t stop , we keep our faces expressionless and eyes straight ahead , and in doing so, we are not just protecting ourselves but are avoiding overloading other people as well.We make use of stereotypes（刻板的模式）as convenient ways to make quick judgements about situations and people around us.They may not always be accurate,and they can often be dangerously wrong,but they are used regularly.The problem with the stereotypes is that they restrict experience.By using limited clues to provide us with a rapid opinion of other people or places we may choose to limit our communication.We may decide not to go to certain places because we believe they will not offer something we enjoy.In the city,styles of dress are particularly important with regard to self-presentation.Different groups often use clearly identifiable styles of clothes so that they can be easily recognized.It is becoming increasingly common for brand names to be placed on the outside of clothes,and this labeling makes it easy to send out information about fashion and price instantly,and lets others tell at a distance whether an individual has similar tastes and is a suitable person to associate with.In England,where social grouping or class continues to make social distinctions（区分）,clothes, hairstyles, people’s pronunciation and the manner of speaking are all clues to our social group. Class distinctions tend to be relatively fixed,although in the city where greater variety is permitted,they are more likely to be secondary determining factors of friendship and association.82.People walking in cities ignore the surroundings because______.A.they do not wish to talk to other peopleB.everyone else is expressionless中鸿智业信息技术有限公司C.the environment is already familiar to themD.there is too much information to take in83.According to the passage, the main disadvantage of using stereotypes is that they______.A.are likely to lead us into dangerous situationsB.may make us miss some pleasant experienceC.can rarely be relied onD.make us mentally lazy84.From the passage we may conclude that______.A.stereotypes can help to understand people fullyB.people are becoming more interested in fashionC.dressing can send messages about individualsD.stereotypes can do more harm than good to people85.It would appear that in England,a person’s class______.A.might be less important in making friends in a cityB.is mainly determined by his pronunciationC.plays less of a role than it did in the pastD.is something that can be changed easily四、书面表达 ( 本大题共 1 题, 共计 15 分)1、(15分)Write an English composition in over 120 words,according to the topic given in Chinese.中鸿智业信息技术有限公司请你谈谈轿车大量进入家庭后，对家庭、环境和经济可能产生的影响。

For each questions there are four answers marked [A], [B], [C] and [D]. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Then mark your answer on ANSWER SHEET 1 by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets with a pencil. (40 points)Passage 1Specialisation can be seen as a response to the problem of an increasing accumulation of scientific knowledge. By splitting up the subject matter into smaller units ，one man could continue to handle the information and use it as the basis for further research. But specialisation was only one of a series of related developments in science affecting the process of communication. Another was the growing professionalisation of scientific activity.No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any rule. Nevertheless, the word “amateur” does carry a connotation that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share its values. The growth of specialisation in the nineteenth century, with its consequent requirement of a longer, more complex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in those areas of science based especially on a mathematical or laboratory training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development of geology in the United Kingdom.A comparison of British geological publications over the last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing definition of what constitutes an acceptable research paper. Thus, in the nineteenth century, local geological studies represented worthwhile research in their own right; but, in the twentieth century, local studies have increasingly become acceptable to professionals only if they incorporate, and reflect on, the wider geological picture. Amateurs, on the other hand, have continued to pursue local studies in the old way. The overall result has been to make entrance to professionalgeological journals harder for amateurs,a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing,first by national journals in the nineteenth century and then by several local geological journals in the twentieth century.As a logical consequence of this development,separate journals have now appeared aimed mainly towards either professional or amateur readership.A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies,whereas the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.Although the process of professionalisation and specialisation was already well under way in British geology during the nineteenth century,its full consequences were thus delayed until the twentieth century.In science generally,however,the nineteenth century must be reckoned as the crucial period for this change in the structure of science.21.The growth of specialisation in the19th century might be more clearly seen insciences such as_______.[ [AJ sociology and chemistryC]sociology and psychology[B]physics and psychology[D]physics and chemistry22.We can infer from the passage that_______.[ [ [ [A]there is little distinction between specialisation and professionalisationB]amateurs can compete with professionals in some areas of scienceC]professionals tend to welcome amateurs into the scientific communityD]amateurs have national academic societies but no local ones2 23.The author writes of the development of geology to demonstrate______.[[[[A]the process of specialisation and professionalisationB]the hardship of amateurs in scientific studyC]the change of policies in scientific publicationsD]the discrimination of professionals against amateurs4.The direct reason for specialisation is_______.[[[[A]the development in communicationB]the growth of professionalisationC]the expansion of scientific knowledgeD]the splitting up of academic societiesPassage2A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so-called digital divide-thedivision of the world into the info(information)rich and the info poor.And that divide does exist today.My wife and I lectured about this looming danger twenty years ago.What was less visible then,however,were the new,positive forces that work against the digital divide.There are reasons to be optimistic.There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide will narrow.As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized,it is in the interest of businessto universalize access-after all,the more people online,the more potential customers there are.More and more governments,afraid their countries will be left behind,want to spread Internet access.Within the next decade or two,one to two billion people on the planet will he netted together.As a result,I now believe the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the years ahead.And that is very good news because the Internet may well be the most powerful tool for combating world poverty that we’ve ever had.Of course,the use of the Internet isn’t the only way to defeat poverty.And the Internet is not the only tool we have.But it has enormous potential.To take advantage of this tool,some impoverished countries will have to get over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices with respect to foreign investment. Countries that still think foreign investment is an invasion of their sovereignty might well study the history of infrastructure（the basic structural foundations of a society）in the United States.When the United States built its industrial infrastructure,it didn’t have the capital to do so.And that is why America’s Second Wave infrastructure-including roads,harbors,highways,ports and so on-were built with foreign investment.The English,the Germans,the Dutch and the French were investing in Britain’s former colony.They financed them.Immigrant Americans built them.Guess who owns them now?The Americans.I believe the same thing would be true in places like Brazil or anywhere else for that matter.The more foreign capital you have helping you build your Third Wave infrastructure,which today is an electronic infrastructure,the better off you’re going to be.That doesn't mean lying down and becoming fooled,or letting foreign corporations run uncontrolled. But it does mean recognizing how important they can be in building the energy and telecom infrastructures needed to take full advantage of the Internet.2 2 25.Digital divide is something_______.[[[[A]getting worse because of the InternetB]the rich countries are responsible forC]the world must guard againstD]considered positive todayernments attach importance to the Internet because it_______.[[[[A]offers economic potentialsB]can bring foreign fundsC]can soon wipe out world povertyD]connects people all over the world7.The writer mentioned the case of the United States to justify the policy of_[[[[______.A]providing financial support overseasB]preventing foreign capital’s controlC]building industrial infrastructureD]accepting foreign investment28.It seems that now a country’s economy depands much on______.[A]how well-developed it is electronically[ [ [B]whether it is prejudiced against immigrantsC]whether it adopts America’s industrial patternD]how much control it has over foreign corporationsPassage3Why do so many Americans distrust what they read in their newspapers?The American Society of Newspaper Editors is trying to answer this painful question. The organization is deep into a long self-analysis known as the journalism credibility project.Sad to say,this project has turned out to be mostly low-level findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes,combined with lots of headscratching puzzlement about what in the world those readers really want.But the sources of distrust go way deeper.Most journalists learn to see the world through a set of standard templates(patterns)into which they plug each day’s events.In other words,there is a conventional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise confusions news.There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists and their readers which helps explain why the“standard templates”of the newsroom seem alien many readers.In a recent survey,questionnaires were sent to reporters in five middle size cities around the country,plus one large metropolitan area.Then residents in these communities were phoned at random and asked the same questions.Replies show that compared with other Americans,journalists are more likely to live in upscale neighborhoods,have maids,own Mercedeses,and trade stocks,and they’re less likely to go to church,do volunteer work,or put down roots in community.Reporters tend to be part of a broadly defined social and cultural elite,so their work tends to reflect the conventional values of this elite.The astonishing distrust of the news media isn’t rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills but in the daily clash of world views between reporters and their readers.This is an explosive situation for any industry,particularly a declining one. Here is a troubled business that keeps hiring employees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers.Then it sponsors lots of symposiums and a credibility project dedicated to wondering why customers are annoyed and fleeing in large numbers.But it never seems to get around to noticing the cultural and class biases that so many former buyers are complaining about.If it did,it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender,and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook,values,education,and class.29.What is the passage mainly about?[ [A]needs of the readers all over the world.B]causes of the public disappointment about newspapers.[ [C]origins of the declining newspaper industry.D]aims of a journalism credibility project.3 30.The results of the journalism credibility project turned out to be______.[[A]quite trustworthyC]very illuminating[B]somewhat contradictory[D]rather superficial1.The basic problem of journalists as pointed out by the writer lies in their_____._[[A]working attitudeC]world outlook[B]conventional lifestyle[D]educational background32.Despite its efforts,the newspaper industry still cannot satisfy the readersowing to its_______.[A]failure to realize its real problem[B]tendency to hire annoying reporters[C]likeliness to do inaccurate reporting[D]prejudice in matters of race and genderPassage4The world is going through the biggest wave of mergers and acquisitions ever witnessed.The process sweeps from hyperactive America to Europe and reaches the emerging countries with unsurpassed might.Many in these countries are looking at this process and worrying:"Won't the wave of business concentration turn into an uncontrollable anti-competitive force?"There's no question that the big are getting bigger and more powerful. Multinational corporations accounted for less than20%of international trade in 1982.Today the figure is more than25%and growing rapidly.International affiliates account for a fast-growing segment of production in economies that open up and welcome foreign investment.In Argentina,for instance,after the reforms of the early1990s,multinationals went from43%to almost70%of the industrial production of the200largest firms.This phenomenon has created serious concerns over the role of smaller economic firms,of national businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world economy.I believe that the most important forces behind the massive M&A wave are the same that underlie the globalization process:falling transportation and communication costs,lower trade and investment barriers and enlarged markets that require enlarged operations capable of meeting customers'demands.All these are beneficial,not detrimental,to consumers.As productivity grows,the world's wealth increases.Examples of benefits or costs of the current concentration wave are scanty.Yet it is hard to imagine that the merger of a few oil firms today could re-create the same threats to competition that were feared nearly a century ago in the U.S.,when the Standard Oil trust was broken up.The mergers of telecom companies,such as WorldCom,hardly seem to bring higher prices for consumers or a reduction in thepace of technical progress.On the contrary,the price of communications is coming down fast.In cars,too,concentration is increasing-witness Daimler and Chrysler, Renault and Nissan-but it does not appear that consumers are being hurt.Yet the fact remains that the merger movement must be watched.A few weeks ago, Alan Greenspan warned against the megamergers in the banking industry.Who is going to supervise,regulate and operate as lender of last resort with the gigantic banks that are being created?Won't multinationals shift production from one place to another when a nation gets too strict about infringements to fair competition?And should one country take upon itself the role of“defending competition”on issues that affect many other nations,as in the U S.vs.Microsoft case?3 3 33.What is the typical trend of businesses today?[[A]to take in more foreign funds.C]to combine and become bigger.[B]to invest more abroad.[D]to trade with more countries.4.According to the author,one of the driving forces behind M&A wave is______[[A]the greater customer demands.C]a growing productivity.[B]a surplus supply for the market.[D]the increase of the world's wealth.5.From paragraph4we can infer that______.[[[[A]the increasing concentration is certain to hurt consumersB]WorldCom serves as a good example of both benefits and costsC]the costs of the globalization process are enormousD]the Standard Oil trust might have threatened competition36.Toward the new business wave,the writer's attitude can he said to be_______.[ [A]optimisticC]pessimistic[B]objective[D]biasedPassage5When I decided to quit my full time employment it never occurred to me that I might become a part of a new international trend.A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my professional progress prompted me to abandon my relatively high profile career although,in the manner of a disgraced government minister,I covered my exit by claiming“I wanted to spend more time with my family”.Curiously,some two-and-a-half years and two novels later,my experiment in what the Americans term“downshifting”has turned my tired excuse into an absolute reality.I have been transformed from a passionate advocate of the philosophy of “having it all”,preached by Linda Kelsey for the past seven years in the pages of She magazine,into a woman who is happy to settle for a bit of everything.I have discovered,as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress,that abandoning the doctrine of“juggling your life”,and making the alternative move into“downshifting”brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status.Nothing could persuade me to return to the kind of life Kelsey used to advocate and I onceenjoyed:12-hour working days,pressured deadlines,the fearful strain of office politics and the limitations of being a parent on“quality time”.In America,the move away from juggling to a simpler,less materialistic lifestyle is a well-established trend.Downshifting-also known in America as “voluntary simplicity”has,ironically,even bred a new area of what might be termed anticonsumerism.There are a number of bestselling downshifting self-help books for people who want to simplify their lives;there are newsletter's,such as The Tightwad Gazette,that give hundreds of thousands of Americans useful tips on anything from recycling their cling-film to making their own soap;there are even support groups for those who want to achieve the mid-'90s equivalent of dropping out.While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline——after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late’80s——and is still linked to the politics of thrift,in Britain,at least among the middle-class downshifters of my acquaintance,we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the’80s, downshifting in the mid-'90s is not so much a search for the mythical good life ——growing your own organic vegetables,and risking turning into one——as a personal recognition of your limitations.3 37.Which of the following is true according to paragraph1?[[[[A]Full-time employment is a new international trend.B]The writer was compelled by circumstances to leave her job.C]“A lateral move”means stepping out of full-time employment.D]The writer was only too eager to spend more time with her family.8.The writer’s experiment shows that downshifting____[[[[A]enables her to realize her dreamB]helps her mold a new philosophy of lifeC]prompts her to abandon her high social statusD]leads her to accept the doctrine of She magazine3 49.“Juggling one’s life”probably means living a life characterized by_____.[[A]non-materialistic lifestyleC]extreme stress[B]a bit of everything[D]anti-consumerism0.According to the passage,downshifting emerged in the U.S.as a result of_____[[A]the quick pace of modern life[B]man’s adventurous spirit[D]the economic situationC]man’s search for mythical experiencesPart III English-Chinese TranslationDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments intoChinese.Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET2.(15points)In less than30years’time the Star Trek holodeck will be a reality.Direct links between the brain’s nervous system and a computer will also create full sensory virtual environments,allowing virtual vacations like those in the film Total Recall.41）There will be television chat shows hosted by robots,and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend.42）Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips,computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools,relaxation will be in front of smell television,and digital age will have arrived.According to BT’s futurologist,Ian Pearson,these are among the developments scheduled for the first few decades of the new millennium（a period of1,000years）, when supercomputers will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life.43）Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place.Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine,including an extended life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs coming into use between now and2040.Pearson also predicts a breakthrough in computer-human links.“By linking directly to our nervous system,computers could pick up what we feel and,hopefully, simulate feeling too so that we can start to develop full sensory environments, rather like the holidays in Total Recall or the Star Trek holodeck,”he says.44）But that,Pearson points out,is only the start of man-machine integration:“It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately l ead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century.”Through his research,Pearson is able to put dates to most of the breakthroughs that can be predicted.However,there are still no forecasts for when faster-than-light travel will be available,or when human cloning will be perfected, or when time travel will be possible.But he does expect social problems as a result of technological advances.A boom in neighborhood surveillance cameras will,for example,cause problems in2010,while the arrival of synthetic lifelike robots will mean people may not be able to distinguish between their human friends and the droids. 45）And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder—kitchen rage.Section V Writing46.Directions:Among all the worthy feelings of mankind, love is probably the noblest, but everyone has his/her own

2001年英语一完型填空
2001年英语一完型填空Passage:Amidst the clamor of bustling city streets and the rhythmic clatter of urban life, there exists a realm where contemplation and tranquility intertwine—the realm of literature. Within the pages of countless novels, short stories, and poems, readers embark on extraordinary journeys of imagination and self-discovery. Literature,like a gentle breeze, whispers secrets of human nature, unravels the complexities of the human condition, and paints vivid tapestries of our collective experiences.In the labyrinthine depths of a library, surrounded by towering shelves adorned with an endless array of literary treasures, one can lose oneself in worlds both familiar and foreign. Each book, a portal to another realm, beckons the curious reader to explore uncharted territories of knowledge, emotion, and experience. As the pages turn, words dance before the eyes, painting vibrant pictures andevoking a kaleidoscope of emotions.From the timeless tales of Shakespeare to the introspective musings of Kafka, literature transcends temporal boundaries, connecting readers across generations. It allows us to step into the shoes of characters from vastly different cultures and epochs, providing a unique perspective on the human experience. By immersing ourselves in the lives of these literary creations, we gain insights into our own motivations, desires, and fears.Literature is not merely a form of entertainment; it is a mirror that reflects the triumphs and tribulations of humanity. It exposes the frailties of human nature, the complexities of relationships, and the profound depths of human emotion. Through the lens of fiction, we grapple with existential questions, explore moral dilemmas, and confront the complexities of the human condition.Beyond its philosophical and introspective qualities, literature also обладает the power to transport readers to distant lands, introduce them to unfamiliarcultures, and broaden their horizons. In the pages of travelogues and adventure novels, readers embark on epic journeys to exotic locales, encountering diverse characters and experiencing the thrill of exploration firsthand.Moreover, literature fosters empathy and understanding. By stepping into the minds of characters with different backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences, readers develop a heightened awareness of the perspectives and challenges faced by others. This empathy, cultivated through the pages of literature, promotes tolerance, compassion, and a greater appreciation for the diversity of human experience.In an era where technology often dominates our lives,it is more important than ever to preserve the timeless value of literature. In an age of constant distraction, literature offers a sanctuary for reflection and introspection. It invites us to slow down, to savor the beauty of language, and to engage with our own thoughts and emotions.Whether you seek solace in the words of a poet, embarkon an epic adventure with a fictional hero, or explore the depths of human nature through the eyes of a master storyteller, literature has something to offer everyone. In the tapestry of human experience, literature weaves a vibrant thread, connecting us to our past, present, and future.In the words of the renowned author Salman Rushdie, "Literature is the oxygen of the soul. It is a way of understanding the world, of understanding ourselves, and of understanding each other." By embracing the power of literature, we not only enrich our own lives but also contribute to a more compassionate, enlightened, and interconnected human society.。
