第1题
Phyllis Wheatley is regarded as America''s first black poet. She was born in Senegal, Africa, about 1753 and brought to America aboard a slave ship at about the age of seven. John and Susannah Wheatley bought her for three pounds at a slave auction in Boston in 1761 to be a personal servant of Mrs. Wheatley. The family had three other slaves, and all were treated with respect. Phyllis was soon accepted as one of the family, which included being raised and educated with the Wheatley''s twin 15-year-old children, Mary and Nathaniel. At that time, most females, even from better families, could not read and write, but Mary was probably one of the best educated young women in Boston. Mary wanted to become a teacher, and in fact, it was Mary who decided to take charge of Phyllis''s education. Phyllis soon displayed her remarkable talents. At the age of twelve she was reading the Greek and Latin classics and passages from the Bible. And eventually, Mrs. Wheatley decided Phyllis should become a Christian.
At the age of thirteen Phyllis wrote her first poem. She became a Boston sensation after she wrote a poem on the death of the evangelical preacher George Whitfield in 1770. It became common practice in Boston to have "Mrs. Wheatley''s Phyllis" read poetry in polite society. Mary married in 1771, and Phyllis later moved to the country because of poor health, as a teacher and caretaker to a farmer''s three children. Mary had tried to interest publishers in Phyllis''s poems but once they heard she was a Negro they weren''t interested.
Then in 1773 Phyllis went with Nathaniel, who was now a businessman, to London. It was thought that a sea voyage might improve her health. Thirty-nine of her poems were published in London as Poems on Various Subjects, Religious and Moral. It was the first book published by a black American. In 1775 Phyllis wrote a poem extolling the accomplishments of George Washington and sent it to him. He responded by praising her talents and inviting her to visit his headquarters. After both of her benefactors died in 1777, and Mary died in 1778, Phyllis was freed as a slave. She married in 1778, moved away from Boston, and had three children. But after the unhappy marriage, she moved back to Boston, and died in poverty at the age of thirty.

第11 题
Electronic mail has become an extremely important and popular means of communication.
The convenience and efficiency of electronic mail are threatened by the extremely rapid growth in the volume of unsolicited commercial electronic mail. Unsolicited commercial electronic mail is currently estimated to account for over half of all electronic mail traffic, up from an estimated 7 percent in 2001, and the volume continues to rise. Most of these messages are fraudulent or deceptive in one or more respects.
The receipt of unsolicited commercial electronic mail may result in costs to recipients who cannot refuse to accept such mail and who incur costs for the storage of such mail, or for the time spent accessing, reviewing, and discarding such mail, or for both. The receipt of a large number of unwanted messages also decreases the convenience of electronic mail and creates a risk that wanted electronic mail messages, both commercial and noncommercial, will be lost, overlooked, or discarded amidst the larger volume of unwanted messages, thus reducing the reliability and usefulness of electronic mail to the recipient. Some commercial electronic mail contains material that many recipients may consider vulgar or pornographic in nature.
The growth in unsolicited commercial electronic mail imposes significant monetary costs on providers of Internet access services, businesses, and educational and nonprofit institutions that carry and receive such mail, as there is a finite volume of mail that such providers, businesses, and institutions can handle without further investment in infrastructure. Many senders of unsolicited commercial electronic mail purposefully disguise the source of such mail.
Many senders of unsolicited commercial electronic mail purposefully include misleading information in the messages'' subject lines in order to induce the recipients to view the messages. While some senders of commercial electronic mail messages word 可编辑
provide simple and reliable ways for recipients to reject (or ''opt-out'' of) receipt of commercial electronic mail from such senders in the future, other senders provide no such ''opt-out'' mechanism, or refuse to honor the requests of recipients not to receive electronic mail from such senders in the future, or both.
Many senders of bulk unsolicited commercial electronic mail use computer programs to gather large numbers of electronic mail addresses on an automated basis from Internet websites or online services where users must post their addresses in order to make full use of the website or service.
The problems associated with the rapid growth and abuse of unsolicited commercial electronic mail cannot be solved by the government alone. The development and adoption of technological approaches and the pursuit of cooperative efforts with other countries will be necessary as well.
According to the passage, efficiency of e-mail is threatened by _______ .
A heavy e-mail traffic
B fraudulent e-mail messages
C large volume of messages
D increasing amount of unwanted e-mail
第12 题
Which of the following is NOT true about unwanted e-mail?
A It costs money to receive them.
B It's free to store them.
C It takes time to access them.
D It takes time to throw them away.
第13 题
Unwanted e-mail may _______ .
A cause companies to fail in business
B cause wanted e-mail messages to lose
C damage the credit of a company
D do good to a small company
第14 题
Pornographic in Paragraph 3 probably means ______ .
A decent
B instructional
C sexual
D commercial
第15 题
What does unwanted e-mail messages do to the providers of the Internet services?
A Raising their cost.
B Raising the Internet speed.
C Improving their business.
D Attracting investment.

A reveal

D harm
第18 题word 可编辑

B a button that you can make a choice to read or not to read

第19 题

B unpleasant news
C advertisements
D adult jokes
第20 题

A the government takes action
B a new technology is adopted

第21 题
Texans have bursting pride and love attention. They also have a thick streak of shortsighted greed and, even by American standards, a busted disposition to violence. When they hear this sort of criticism they usually ascribe it to the ignorance and jealousy of stuffy Yankees who have not spent enough time in the state to understand it. For such avowedly robust people they are surprisingly sensitive. They hated Edna Ferber''s novel Giant, which scourged Texan vulgarity, racism and the mores of millionaires, but they bought it in great quantities and packed cinemas to see the film. They would rather be talked about than not, and if you do not talk about them they do it for you.
In claiming special qualities for themselves, Texans have had to become reconciled to the fact that a large number of them are not native. In the last century "Gone to Texas"
was a commonplace graffito daubed on barns in other states, and in recent years "Gone to Texas" has, figuratively, been written on the front doors of millions of Americans and also Mexicans. In the early 1980s newcomers accounted for nearly two-thirds of the state''s population increase. But Texans do not believe they are being diluted. They maintain that Texanhood, or Texianism, is a matter of attitude and that Texanic qualities exist in abundance in many Americans, regardless of their birthplace: it is when these people are planted in Texas, and nourished by its atmosphere, that they flower like true Texans. A man may not be born in Texas, which is unfortunate; but he can be born to be Texan.
Many Alaskans are urban, young and raising families, here for a while, and trying to make money before moving to somewhere warmer. But many are staying. While most remain in Anchorage and other centers, some set out to build a cabin in the wilderness and live by hunting, trapping and fishing, learning how to skin a muskrat and moose, how to survive terrible weather, how to be truly in tune with the land, taking pleasure in great silence and unpeopled immensity. To settle the frontier the state has a homesteading program, based on the federal Homestead Act of 1864, which was a key event in the opening up of the American west. Hundreds of Alaskans are awarded parcels of wilderness land in an annual lottery and undertake to invest sweat equity, to build a home within three years and clear and cultivate the land within five. Alaskans love reading about Alaska, and two of the most popular books are a manual on log cabin building and a collection of tales about grizzly bears, of which Alaska is a stronghold. Log cabin life is for the stout-hearted few with the springs of adventure strong in them, and these wilderness Alaskans are remarkable. Some are refugees of one kind or another. Several hundred are Vietnam veterans, tortured by their experiences of war and unable to fit into normal urban life, seeking solace in the wilds.
Which of the following statements can best describe Texans?
A They are aggressively self-confident of their wisdom.
B They are brutally crude in making a living for themselves.
C They are blindly allergic to negative comments on their weakness.
D They are openly and crudely thin-skinned about discriminations against them. 第22 题The author in Paragraph 1 describes Texans as a class of people who are ______ .
A of a mixture of personality consisting of both morality and immorality
B of a mixture of nature consisting of both pride and violence
C more sensitive to criticisms of their uncivilized conducts
D born to be savage and uncivilized people
第23 题
Which of the following statements can best summarize the implications of Paragraph 2?
A Texans are so conceited that they blindly and subjectively consider everything Texan to be inclusively Texan.
B Texans pride themselves on being superior to other Americans who are not as rich as Texans.
C Texans thumb down on all non-natives and regard them as being less educated and resourceful.
D Texans are crude in nature, savage in behavior, and conceited in personality.
第24 题
According to the author, Alaskans are characterized by their distinctive and unique way of life that _____________ .
A is embraced by both a strong desire to make money and special qualities for enjoying peace
B takes hunting, fishing and learning how to skin wild animals as their major activities
C is made up of both the enjoyment of staying indoors and the exploration of and doing the wilderness
D consists of both the love of themselves and the lust for wealth
第25 题
Alaskans love reading books about ______ .
A Alaskans' way of living as hunters and as log cabin builders
B Alaskans' keen interest in living in the wild and the abundance in wild animals
C stories about Alaskans' log cabin life and their abundance of grizzly bears
D stories telling how Alaskans were cultivating the land and building log cabins

A good translator is by definition bilingual. The opposite is not _____ (1) true, however. A born and bred bilingual will still need two _________ (2) to become a
translator: first, the skills and experience necessary for _________ (3); second, knowledge of the field in which he or she will _________ (4). The skills and
experience for translation include the ability to write ____ (5) in the target language, the ability to read and understand the ________ (6) language material thoroughly, and the ability to work with the latest _________ (7) and communication hardware and software.
Does a born and bred bilingual _________ (8) a better translator than someone who learned language B later in _________ (9)? There is no definite answer, but the following issues are important. ________ (10), a born and bred bilingual often
suffers from not truly knowing ________ (11) language well enough to translate,
with some even suffering from what _________ (12) known as a lingualism, a state
in which a person lacks ________ (13) full, fluent command of any language. Second, born and bred bilinguals _________ (14) don''t know the culture of the target
language well enough to _________ (15) top-quality translations, or cannot recognize what aspects of the source language ________ (16) its culture need to be treated with particular care, as they ________ (17) in a sense too close to the language. And last, they often ________ (18) the analytical linguistic skills to work through a sticky text.
On ________ (19) other hand, the acquired bilingual may not have the same
in-depth ________ (20) of colloquialisms, slang, and dialect that the born bilingual has. Also, the acquired bilingual will not be able to translate as readily in both directions (from B to language A and A to language B). Finally, born bilinguals often have a greater appreciation of the subtleties and nuances of both their languages than someone who learns their B language later in life can ever hope to have.
