Anthony Giddens has 3 globalization as “the intensification of worldwide social relations which link 4localities in such a way that local happenings are 5 by events occurring many miles away and vice versa”.A central feature of the new, global economy which has 6 in the context of intensified relations is that it is 7 . That is to say, the productivity and competitiveness of firms in the new economic order depend on their ability to create, 8and apply knowledge-based information.

In each indicated line there is only ONE error, and for each error, you just need to change ONE word to make it correct. Write down the correct word on the Answer Sheet.Around 1990 a number of architect around the world began developing new architectural solutions to integrate tradition for new social demands and technological possibilities. The struggle between old and new initiate the birth of a new architecture style – the International Style. The international style stresses minimalism and functionalism, rejects all essential decorative elements and is ignorant to regional characteristics. The ideals of the style are also commonly sum up in four slogans: ornament is a crime, truth to materials, form follows function, and “machines for living.”This could be sound explained in light of the Western industrialization. With their rapid development, society was also changing and evolved rapidly. There was a great demand for constructing better and affordable buildings for factories, industries, commercial complexes, and residential purposes. Thus, the overdoing ornamentation of the buildings of the previous eras, that demanded high level of craftsmanship and was time-consuming, gave way in the simple designs.The international style first blossomed in western Europe, and than it began to flourish in the United States, and matured after World War II. Its became the dominant approach in the US for much decades.1.__________2.__________3.__________4.__________5.__________6.__________7.__________8.__________9.__________ 10.__________ 11.__________ 12.__________ 13.__________ 14.__________ 15.__________三、Sentence Completion 完成句子（根据提供的词，用合适的词的形式完成句子）（15题，每题2分，共30分）Directions: Fill in the gaps with the proper forms of the given words.

Write down the letter of your choice for each question on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneCate Siu is from Hong Kong, but she's a fan of Korean television shows and she keeps up with gossip about Korean celebrities on the Internet. Her favorite is a beautiful soap-opera star, Song Hye Kyo, whose bee-stung lips and feminine features she admires."Korean actresses have prominent and elegant noses," says Ms. Siu, a 25-year-old aspiring actress. "They look so pretty."So, when Ms. Siu decided she'd have a better shot at breaking into the entertainment business after improving her looks with a surgical makeover, she knew where she wanted to go. In April, she flew more than 1,000 miles to a clinic in Seoul for operations to raise the bridge of her nose, make her eyes appear larger, and sharpen her chin.Across Asia, Korea is cool. From fashion to music to film, the country of 48 million people is redefining style. And as notions of Korean beauty become popularized by the country's exploding cultural exports, women from around the region – andsome men, too – are flocking to Seoul to have their faces remodeled."A lot of my patients bring a picture of a Korean star from a magazine and say, 'I want to look like that,'" says Chung Jong Pil, a surgeon who runs the Cinderella Plastic Surgery Clinic in a fashionable Seoul neighborhood.Dr. Chung estimates that just under ten percent of his customers come from overseas; the rest are locals. Most of the foreign visitors come from China, he says. Jung Dong Hak, a surgeon who specializes in rhinoplasty, or nose jobs, at another Seoul clinic, says roughly 15 percent of his patients are foreign. That number has been rising in the past few years. "The increase has been very big since the Korean wave started," he says.1. Where is the article most probably published?A. in an academic journalB. in a science magazineC. in a bookD. in a newspaper2. What kind of lips does Cate Siu like?A. thickB. thinC. smallD. pink3. What kind of nose does Cate Siu want to have?A. tiny and roundedB. large and noticeableC. dark and thinD. flat and delicate4. The name of Chung Jong Pil's clinic derives from _________.A. a novelB. a fairytaleC. a poemD. an essay5. From Dr. Jung we can know that __________.A. most of his foreign customers are the ChineseB. more foreigners than locals take plastic surgery in KoreaC. more and more foreigners come to Korea for plastic surgeryD. most of his customers are localsPassage TwoFrom early adulthood to middle adulthood, people typically experience a strengthening sense of identity, confidence, and self-esteem. In later life, challenges arise. Income shrinks, work is often taken away, the body deteriorates, recall fades, energy wanes, family members and friends die or move away, and the great enemy, death, looms ever closer. It is not surprising that many presume the over-65 years to be the worst of times. But, they are not, as Ronald Inglehart discovered when he amassed interviewed conducted during the 1980s with representative samples of nearly 170,000 people from 16 nations. Older people report as much happiness and satisfaction with life as younger people do.If anything, positive feelings grow after midlife and negative feelings subside. Older adults increasingly use words that convey positive emotions. They attend less and less to negative information. For example, they are slower than younger adults to perceive negative faces. Their amygdale, a neural processing center for emotions, shows diminishing activity in response to negative events while maintaining its responsiveness to positive events. Moreover, the bad feelings we associate with negative events fade faster than do the good feelings we associate positive events. This contributes to most older people’s sense that life, on balance, has been mostly good. Given that growing older is an outcome of living (an outcome nearly all of us prefer to early dying), the positivity of later life is comforting.6. It is generally believed that __________.A. older adults have a stronger sense of identityB. older adults have fewer friendsC. there are many problems associated with older adulthoodD. there is a positive side of older adulthood7. It can be inferred from the passage that Ronald Inglehart is __________.A. a scholarB. an interviewerC. a scientistD. a reporter8. The level of happiness and satisfaction in old age __________.A. is about the same as younger people’sB. is obviously different from younger people’sC. is significantly lower than younger people’sD. is significantly higher than younger people’s9. The brain of older people tends to __________.A. notice negative events around them rather than positive onesB. ignore negative events and only notice positive onesC. more quickly forget the negative things that happen and remember the positive onesD. more quickly forget the positive things that happen and remember the negative ones10. The research results mentioned in the text can contribute to a more __________ attitude toward older adulthood.A. pessimisticB. optimisticC. dubiousD. uncertainPassage ThreeToday, in the hospital, surgeons and physicians have equal status. The studies of internal medicine and surgery seem supplementary to each other and are therefore treated equally. We may easily take it for granted that it was the same in the past. In fact, historically speaking, internal medicine and surgery had quite different histories, reputations and professions.In the middle ages, in order to become a physician, one must study in a universityfirst in liberal arts for five years, then in medicine for four years. After the long study was finished, he had to pass strict exams to graduate. He then had to obtain a license in order to begin his practice. In other words, physicians should learn from the books. A true doctor was believed to treat patients with remedies, i.e., medicine, instead of giving physical intervention. Physicians were held in high regard. Surgeons were not ranked as high as physicians. Their profession was viewed as a “trade” (i.e. an occupation, especially one requiring skilled labor; craft), not as an “art”. Clerics used to help ill people, which was a natural calling of the Christian doctrine. But their help usually came in the form of religious prayer, and care for patients. They were forbidden to perform surgery because they were not to “spill blood”. Medical doctors, or physicians, looked down upon the profession as a “trade” beneath them and were unwilling to perform surgeries. The most suitable person for the performance of surgery was the barber, who often dealt with small cuts when they were giving a close shave. They were prepared with bandage and styptics (drugs used to stop bleeding). So when someone had an injury, or an ailment that required cutting, the barber was the most skilled person – he was a tradesman with the necessary skills. Thus the profession was often called the barber surgeon.11. It is a popular illusion that __________.A. surgeons and physician have equal statusB. surgeons and physician enjoyed equal statusC. the studies of internal medicine and surgery are treated equallyD. internal medicine and surgery had different reputations12. Which of the following statements about a physician in the middle ages is FALSE?A. A physician must study 9 years in a university.B. It was hard to become a physician.C. A physician was highly reputed.D. A physician was forbidden to operate on patients.13. What can be known about “clerics” in the past from the passage?A. They could perform surgery.B. It was their mission to help ill people.C. They helped physicians to cure diseases.D. They spilled blood when necessary.14. What can be known about barbers in the past from the passage?A. They were not held in high regard.B. They were respectable members of the society.C. They tried different types of work.D. They tried to become physicians.15. What might be discussed in the following paragraphs?A. The earnings of physicians and surgeons.B. The different lifestyles of physicians and surgeons.C. The different status of physicians and surgeons.D. The different contributions of physicians and surgeons.Passage FourA brush with death can actually improve a person’s outlook on life. That, at least, was one of the major findings of a study of some 200 people who come close to dying. Some had come through heart attack; some had fallen, come close to drowning; or survived a terrible car wreck, yet despite the variety of circumstances, they reported strikingly similar reactions to their experiences.Perhaps most surprisingly, many said they were less frightened of death now than they were before. Like most people, before their near-death incidents many had thought death would be painful, the ultimate horror—but they didn’t find it was.Surviving a nearly fatal experience also gave many people a sense of invulnerability （不会受伤害）that made them feel special and even religious. Several believed they had been saved because they were to fulfill some special mission in the remainder of their lives.Perhaps not so surprisingly, these survivors also reported an increased zest for life and a determination to enjoy life more.A few of the survivors did report negative reactions to their experience. A dozen said they felt more vulnerable, and some even felt a sense of helplessness and a loss of control over their lives. Some had become phobic about activities associated with the accident; for example, several said they could no longer swim for fear of drowning.Yet most of those interviewees said they came away with a strong sense of renewal or rebirth. In studying their reactions researchers have concluded that these people have come to understand the relationship of life and death better and more intimately than most of us, that they have come to understand how life is actually defined by death. Life is given meaning by the fact that it will end someday.16.What have you learned about the effects of near-death experiences on the survivors’ life?A. They differ due to the variety of circumstances.B. They vary greatly from person to person.C. They are mostly positive in terms of their outlook on life.D. They are neither positive nor negative.17."Some had become phobic about activities..."( Line 3, Para. 5) How did they feel exactly?A. very clumsyB. very casualC. very curiousD. very fearful18.Which of the titles below best expresses the idea of this passage?A. How to Improve a Person’s Outlook on Life.B. The Effects of Near-Death Experiences.C. Is Death Really Horrible?D. Near-Death Accidents and their Survivors.19.The positive effect of near-death experience was that ______________.A. some people loved life better because they realized its new meaningB. some people got a sense of vulnerability and became religiousC. some people were no longer afraid of death just because they proved to be religiousD. some people wanted to seek extreme happiness because they knew life was too limited20.Which effect of the near-death experience was the one that people had least expected?A. Some people felt more vulnerable.B. Some people did not worry too much about death any more.C. Some people paid more attention to the value of life.D. Some people tended to be too pessimistic about death.Passage FiveThe notion that the great apes, such as chimpanzees and gorillas, can imitate one another might seem unsurprising to anyone who has watched these animals playing at the zoo. But in scientific circles, the question of whether apes really do "ape" has become controversial.Consider a young chimpanzee watching his mother crack open a cola nut, as has been observed in the Tai Forest of Africa. In most cases, the youth will eventually take up the practice himself. How does he learn this? Is it because he copies it from his mother, or does the skill originate solely from trial and error? If the young animal copies adult behavior, then chimpanzees must have the ability to develop culturaltraits, i.e. knowledge or skills passed down from generation to generation, instead of by genetic inheritance. However, if the young learns how to crack the nut exclusively by trial and error, then chimpanzees must, in a sense, reinvent the method each time they deal with a nut, and hence, no real cumulative culture can ever develop.The clearest way to establish how chimpanzees learn is through laboratory experiments. A team of scientists at Goldsmith's College, University of London, used artificial fruits to determine whether chimpanzees imitate or not. In a typical experiment, one group of chimpanzees watched a complex technique for opening a fruit, while a second group observed a very different method. Then the researchers recorded the extent to which the chimpanzees had been influenced by the method they observed. They also conducted similar experiments with three-year-old children as subjects. The results demonstrate that six-year-old chimpanzees show imitative behavior markedly like that seen in the children, although the preciseness of their copying tends to be poorer. In another experiment, chimpanzees copied an entire sequence of actions they had witnessed, but did so only after trying some alternatives. This suggests that they tended to imitate what they had observed others doing at the expense of their own trial-and-error discoveries.In the researchers' view, these findings indicate that apes do ape and that this ability forms one strand in cultural transmission. In other words, learning from elders is crucial to growing up as a competent wild chimpanzee.21. The word "ape" (Line 3, Para. 1) in the quotation marks probably means ______.A. play at the zooB. crack a nutC. imitateD. transmit22. If a chimpanzee cracks a nut solely by trial and error, it suggests that ___________.A. the skill is genetically inheritedB. the skill is learned from othersC. the skill is unique to humansD. the skill is unique to wild animals23. Results from the research mentioned in Para. 3 show that ___________.A. chimpanzees have little ability to imitate although they can open fruits skillfullyB. chimpanzees do imitate although their copying is less faithful than that of childrenC. chimpanzees can open artificial fruits only after observing how others do itD. chimpanzees imitate their elders in a manner different from how children do24. It can be concluded from the passage that ___________.A. chimpanzees in the laboratory are better imitators than those in the wildB. chimpanzees in the laboratory crack nuts differently from those in the wildC. cultural transmission happens at the expense of individual discoveriesD. cultural transmission exists both among wild chimpanzees and in human society25. The main purpose of the passage is ___________.A. to answer a scientific question by providing research findingsB. to explain the procedure of food gathering used by wild animalsC. to compare the differences between animal culture and human cultureD. to illustrate the methods of analyzing young animals' behaviorPassage SixMy friend Peter saunters over with his long-legged, deliberately slow gait, and gives me a pat on the cheek and a squeeze on the arm, which he administers as if he were bestowing a favor. He knows he’s a prize item in this room – a robust, single, intelligent male – and after making some desultory(散漫的) remarks, he proceeds to look around lazily, like a lion surveying his territory in the knowledge that he’s masterof it. Lydia comes up to us, as usual humming with effusive excitement, her eyes shining as if there were no tomorrow. “Peter!” she exclaims, “you’re just the person I wanted to see! I had a phone call today from a TV station in Germany, and they want to do a show on which I think you should be a consultant. Oh, it would be so wonderful if it worked out! Maybe we could go to Berlin together...” The hum continues, a kind of bird song meant to attract males. But she’s making too much effort, and anyway, it’s the wrong song. Peter looks over her head, puts his hand on her shoulder, and says, “Ah, excuse me, I see somebody I know over there...”26. From the passage we can know Peter __________.A. has long legsB. pretends to be friendly to meC. has won a prizeD. is a playboy27. It can be inferred from the passage that __________.A. there are few men in the roomB. there are many unmarried women in the roomC. most of the people in the room are womenD. single men are hard to find28. From the passage we can know Lydia __________.A. is good at singingB. is good at imitating birdsC. is hard-workingD. is too enthusiastic29. Peter’s response to Lydia indicates that __________.A. he has no interest in herB. he has no interest in the TV showC. he doesn’t believe what she tells himD. he doesn’t think he can be a consultant30. What is implied by the author in the passage?A. She enjoys the party whole-heartedly.B. She doesn’t care what is going on.C. She feels detached from her surroundings.D. She detests the people in the room.。

He got a good estate by merchandise, and leaving off his trade, lived afterwards at York, from whence he had married my mother, whose relations were named Robinson, a very good family in that country, and from whom I was called Robinson Kreutznaer; but, by the usual corruption of words in England, we are now called - nay we call ourselves and write our name -Crusoe; and so my companions always called me.……As I had been one voyage to this coast before, I knew very well that the islands of the Canaries, and the Cape de Verde Islands also, lay not far off from the coast. But as I had no instruments to take an observation to know what latitude we were in, and not exactly knowing, or at least remembering, what latitude they were in, I knew notwhere to look for them, or when to stand off to sea towards them; otherwise I might now easily have found some of these islands. But my hope was, that if I stood along this coast till I came to that part where the English traded, I should find some of their vessels upon their usual design of trade, that would relieve and take us in.……When I had gone through this work I was extremely delighted with it. The boat was really much bigger than ever I saw a canoe or periagua, that was made of one tree, in my life. Many a weary stroke it had cost, you may be sure; and had I gotten it into the water, I make no question, but I should have begun the maddest voyage, and the most unlikely to be performed, that ever was undertaken.……In this voyage I visited my new colony in the island, saw my successors the Spaniards, had the old story of their lives and of the villains I left there; how at first they insulted the poor Spaniards, how they afterwards agreed, disagreed, united, separated, and how at last the Spaniards were obliged to use violence with them; how they were subjected to the Spaniards, how honestly the Spaniards used them - a history, if it were entered into, as full of variety and wonderful accidents as my own part - particularly, also, as to their battles with the Caribbeans, who landed several times upon the island, and as to the improvement they made upon the island itself, and how five of them made an attempt upon the mainland, and brought away eleven men and five women prisoners, by which, at my coming, I found about twenty young children on the island.（2）普通语言学常识：术语汉译（5题，共15分）phonologyassimilationderivationcohesiondenotation简答题（1题，共15分）What are the co-operative principles by Grice and their core ideas?（3）英汉互译（35分）汉译英：他告诉学生：“如果想在写作上有所建树，就要保持一尺深的热爱，也就是说，坚持写完一尺厚废稿。

Satire rarely offers original ideas. Instead, it presents the familiar in a new form. Satirists do not offer the world new philosophies. What they do is look at familiar conditions from a perspective that makes these conditions seem foolish, harmful, or affected. Satire jars us out of complacence into a pleasantly shocked realization that many of the values we unquestioningly accept are false.Satire exists because there is need for it. It has lived because readers appreciate a refreshing stimulus, an irreverent reminder that they live in a world of platitudinous thinking, cheap moralizing, and foolish philosophy.Section II.

The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future profits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through The Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the savings of individuals and institution, both at home and overseas. When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he originally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.1) Almost all companies involved in new production and development must _____.A. rely on their own financial resourcesB. persuade the banks to provide long-term financeC. borrow large sums of money from friends and people we knowD. depend on the population as a whole for finance2) The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is _____.A. repaid to its original owners as soon as possibleB. raised by the selling of shares in the companiesC. exchanged for part ownership in The Stock ExchangeD. invested in different companies on The Stock ExchangeIV.

Reading Comprehension 阅读理解（30题，每题2分，共60分）Directions: In this section, there six reading passages followed by a total of thirty multiple-choice questions. Read the passages carefully and then choose the correct answer.Passage 1 The Birth of Photography【1】Perceptions of the visible world were greatly altered by the invention of photography in the middle of the nineteenth century. In particular, and quite logically, the art of painting was forever changed, though not always in the ways one might have expected. The realistic and naturalistic painters of the mid- and late-nineteenth century were all intently aware of photography—as a thing to use, to learn from, and react to.【2】Unlike most major inventions, photography had been long and impatiently awaited. The images produced by the camera obscura, a boxlike device that used a pinhole or lens to throw an image onto a ground-glass screen or a piece of white paper, were already familiar—the device had been much employed by topographical artists like the Italian painter Canaletto in his detailed views of the city of Venice. What was lacking was a way of giving such images permanent form. This was finally achieved by Louis Daguerre (1787-1851), who perfected a way of fixing them on a silvered copper plate. His discovery, the "daguerreotype," was announced in 1839.【3】A second and very different process was patented by the British inventor William Henry Talbot (1800-1877) in 1841. Talbot's "calotype" was the first negative-to-positive process and the direct ancestor of the modern photograph. The calotype was revolutionary in its use of chemically treated paper in which areas hit by light became dark in tone, producing a negative image. This "negative," as Talbot called it, could then be used to print multiple positive images on another piece of treated paper.【4】The two processes produced very different results. The daguerreotype was a unique image that reproduced what was in front of the camera lens in minute, unselective detail and could not be duplicated. The calotype could be made in series, and was thus the equivalent of an etching or an engraving. Its general effect was soft edged and tonal.【5】One of the things that most impressed the original audience for photography was the idea of authenticity. Nature now seemed able to speak for itself, with a minimum of interference. The title Talbot chose for his book, The Pencil of Nature (the first part of which was published in 1844), reflected this feeling. Artists were fascinated by photography because it offered a way of examining the world in much greater detail. They were also afraid of it, because it seemed likely to make their own efforts unnecessary.【6】Photography did indeed make certain kinds of painting obsolete—the daguerreotype virtually did away with the portrait miniature. It also made the whole business of making and owning images democratic. Portraiture, once a luxury for the privileged few, was suddenly well within the reach of many more people.【7】In the long term, photography's impact on the visual arts was far from simple. Because the medium was so prolific, in the sense that it was possible to produce a multitude of images very cheaply, it was soon treated as the poor relation of fine art, rather than its destined successor. Even those artists who were most dependent on photography became reluctant to admit that they made use of it, in case thiscompromised their professional standing.【8】The rapid technical development of photography—the introduction of lighter and simpler equipment, and of new emulsions that coated photographic plates, film, and paper and enabled images to be made at much faster speeds—had some unanticipated consequences. Scientific experiments made by photographers such as Eadweard Muybridge (1830-1904) and Etienne-Jules Marey (1830-1904) demonstrated that the movements of both humans and animals differed widely from the way they had been traditionally represented in art. Artists, often reluctantly, were forced to accept the evidence provided by the camera. The new candid photography—unposed pictures that were made when the subjects were unaware that their pictures were being taken—confirmed these scientific results, and at the same time, thanks to the radical cropping (trimming) of images that the camera often imposed, suggested new compositional formats. The accidental effects obtained by candid photographers were soon being copied by artists such as the French painter Degas.1.What can be inferred from paragraphs 1 and 2 about the effect of photography on nineteenth-century painting?A. Photography did not significantly change the way people looked at reality.B. Most painters used the images of the camera obscura in preference to those of the daguerreotype.C. Painters who were concerned with realistic or naturalistic representation were particularly influenced by photography.D. Artists used the long-awaited invention of photography in just the ways they had expected to.2. According to paragraphs 2 and 3 which of the following did the daguerreotype and the calotype have in common?A. They were equally useful for artists.B. They could be reproduced.C. They produced a permanent imageD. They were produced on treated paper.3. The word "authenticity" in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning toA. improvement.B. practicality.C. genuineness.D. repetition.4.What point does the author make in paragraph 6?A. Paintings became less expensive because of competition with photography.B. Photography, unlike painting, was a type of portraiture that even ordinary people could afford.C. Every style of painting was influenced by the invention of photography.D. The daguerreotype was more popular than the calotype.5.It can be inferred from paragraph 8 that one effect that photography had on painting was that itA.provided painters with new insights into how humans and animals actually move.B.showed that representing movement could be as interesting as portrait art.C.increased the appeal of painted portraiture among the wealthy.D.influenced artists to improve techniques for painting faster.Passage 2 Early Settlements in the Southwest Asia【1】The universal global warming at the end of the Ice Age had dramatic effects on temperate regions of Asia, Europe, and North America. Ice sheets retreated and sea levels rose. The climatic changes in southwestern Asia were more subtle, in that they involved shifts in mountain snow lines, rainfall patterns, and vegetation cover. However, these same cycles of change had momentous impacts on the sparse human populations of the region. At the end of the Ice Age, no more than a few thousand foragers lived along the eastern Mediterranean coast, in the Jordan and Euphrates valleys. Within 2,000 years, the human population of the region numbered in the tens of thousands, all as a result of village life and farming. Thanks to new environmental and archaeological discoveries, we now know something about this remarkable change in local life.【2】Pollen samples from freshwater lakes in Syria and elsewhere tell us forest cover expanded rapidly at the end of the Ice Age, for the southwestern Asian climate was still cooler and considerably wetter than today. Many areas were richer in animal and plant species than they are now, making them highly favorable for human occupation. About 9000 B.C., most human settlements lay in the area along the Mediterranean coast and in the Zagros Mountains of Iran and their foothills. Some local areas, like the Jordan River valley, the middle Euphrates valley, and some Zagros valleys, were more densely populated than elsewhere. Here more sedentary and more complex societies flourished. These people exploited the landscape intensively, foraging on hill slopes for wild cereal grasses and nuts, while hunting gazelle and other game on grassy lowlands and in river valleys. Their settlements contain exotic objects such as seashells, stone bowls, and artifacts made of obsidian (volcanic glass), all traded from afar. This considerable volume of intercommunity exchange brought a degree of social complexity in its wake.【3】Thanks to extremely fine-grained excavation and extensive use of flotation methods (through which seeds are recovered from soil samples), we know a great deal about the foraging practices of the inhabitants of Abu Hureyra in Syria's Euphrates valley. Abu Hureyra was founded about 9500B.C, a small village settlement of cramped pit dwellings (houses dug partially in the soil) with reed roofs supported by wooden uprights. For the next 1,500 years, its inhabitants enjoyed a somewhat warmer and damper climate than today, living in a well-wooded steppe area where wild cereal grasses were abundant. They subsisted off spring migrations of Persian gazelles from the south. With such a favorable location, about 300 to 400 people lived in a sizable, permanent settlement. They were no longer a series of small bands but lived in a large community with more elaborate social organization, probably grouped into clans of people of common descent.【4】The flotation samples from the excavations allowed botanists to study shifts in plant-collecting habits as if they were looking through a telescope at a changing landscape. Hundreds of tiny plant remains show how the inhabitants exploited nutharvests in nearby pistachio and oak forests. However, as the climate dried up, the forests retreated from the vicinity of the settlement. The inhabitants turned to wild cereal grasses instead, collecting them by the thousands, while the percentage of nuts in the diet fell. By 8200B.C., drought conditions were so severe that the people abandoned their long-established settlement, perhaps dispersing into smaller camps. 【5】Five centuries later, about 7700B.C., a new village rose on the mound. At first the inhabitants still hunted gazelle intensively. Then, about 7000 B.C., within the space of a few generations, they switched abruptly to herding domesticated goats and sheep and to growing einkorn, pulses, and other cereal grasses. Abu Hureyra grew rapidly until it covered nearly 30 acres. It was a close-knit community of rectangular, one-story mud-brick houses, joined by narrow lanes and courtyards, finally abandoned about 5000 B.C.. Many complex factors led to the adoption of the new economies, not only at Abu Hureyra, but at many other locations such as 'Ain Ghazal, also in Syria, where goat toe bones showing the telltale marks of abrasion caused by foot tethering (binding) testify to early herding of domestic stock.6. The word "momentous" in the passage (paragraph 1) is closest in meaning toA. numerous.B. regular.C. very important.D. very positive.7. Major climatic changes occurred by the end of the Ice Age in all of the following geographic areas EXCEPTA. temperate regions of Asia.B. southwestern Asia.C. North America.D. Europe.8. Why does the author mention "seashells, stone bowls, and artifacts made of obsidian" in paragraph 2?A. To give examples of objects obtained through trade with other societies.B. To illustrate the kinds of objects that are preserved in a cool climate.C. To provide evidence that the organization of work was specialized.D. To give examples of the artistic ability of local populations.9. Paragraph 4 suggests that the people of Abu Hureyra abandoned their long-established settlement becauseA. the inhabitants had cleared all the trees from the forests.B. wild cereal grasses took over pistachio and oak forests.C. people wanted to explore new areas.D. lack of rain caused food shortages.10. According to paragraph 5, after 7000 B.C. the settlement of Abu Hureyra differed from earlier settlements at that location in all of the following EXCEPTA. the domestication of animals.B. the intensive hunting of gazelle.C. the size of the settlement.D. the design of the dwellings.Passage 3 Children and Advertising【1】Young children are trusting of commercial advertisements in the media, and advertisers have sometimes been accused of taking advantage of this trusting outlook. The Independent Television Commission, regulator of television advertising in the United Kingdom, has criticized advertisers for "misleadingness"—creating a wrong impression either intentionally or unintentionally—in an effort to control advertisers' use of techniques that make it difficult for children to judge the true size, action, performance, or construction of a toy.【2】General concern about misleading tactics that advertisers employ is centered on the use of exaggeration. Consumer protection groups and parents believe that children are largely ill-equipped to recognize such techniques and that often exaggeration is used at the expense of product information. Claims such as "the best" or "better than" can be subjective and misleading; even adults may be unsure as to their meaning. They represent the advertiser's opinions about the qualities of their products or brand and, as a consequence, are difficult to verify. Advertisers sometimes offset or counterbalance an exaggerated claim with a disclaimer—a qualification or condition on the claim. For example, the claim that breakfast cereal has a health benefit may be accompanied by the disclaimer "when part of a nutritionally balanced breakfast." However, research has shown that children often have difficulty understanding disclaimers: children may interpret the phrase "when part of a nutritionally balanced breakfast" to mean that the cereal is required as a necessary part of a balanced breakfast. The author George Comstock suggested that less than a quarter of children between the ages of six and eight years old understood standard disclaimers used in many toy advertisements and that disclaimers are more readily comprehended when presented in both audio and visual formats. Nevertheless, disclaimers are mainly presented in audio format only.【3】Fantasy is one of the more common techniques in advertising that could possibly mislead a young audience. Child-oriented advertisements are more likely to include magic and fantasy than advertisements aimed at adults. In a content analysis of Canadian television, the author Stephen Kline observed that nearly all commercials for character toys featured fantasy play. Children have strong imaginations and the use of fantasy brings their ideas to life, but children may not be adept enough to realize that what they are viewing is unreal. Fantasy situations and settings are frequently used to attract children's attention, particularly in food advertising. Advertisements for breakfast cereals have, for many years, been found to be especially fond of fantasy techniques, with almost nine out of ten including such content. Generally, there is uncertainty as to whether very young children can distinguish between fantasy and reality in advertising. Certainly, rational appeals in advertising aimed at children are limited, as most advertisements use emotional and indirect appeals to psychological states or associations.【4】The use of celebrities such as singers and movie stars is common in advertising. The intention is for the positively perceived attributes of the celebrity to be transferred to the advertised product and for the two to become automatically linked in the audience's mind. In children's advertising, the "celebrities" are often animated figuresfrom popular cartoons. In the recent past, the role of celebrities in advertising to children has often been conflated with the concept of host selling. Host selling involves blending advertisements with regular programming in a way that makes it difficult to distinguish one from the other. Host selling occurs, for example, when a children's show about a cartoon lion contains an ad in which the same lion promotes a breakfast cereal. The psychologist Dale Kunkel showed that the practice of host selling reduced children's ability to distinguish between advertising and program material. It was also found that older children responded more positively to products in host selling advertisements.【5】Regarding the appearance of celebrities in advertisements that do not involve host selling, the evidence is mixed. Researcher Charles Atkin found that children believe that the characters used to advertise breakfast cereals are knowledgeable about cereals, and children accept such characters as credible sources of nutritional information. This finding was even more marked for heavy viewers of television. In addition, children feel validated in their choice of a product when a celebrity endorses that product. A study of children in Hong Kong, however, found that the presence of celebrities in advertisements could negatively affect the children's perceptions of a product if the children did not like the celebrity in question.11. Which of the following is NOT mentioned in paragraph 1 as being a difficult judgment for children to make about advertised toys?A. How big the toys are?B. How much the toys cost?C. What the toys can do?D. How the toys are made?12. The word “verify” in the passage is closest in meaning toA. establish the truth of.B. approve of.C. understand.D. criticize.13. Cereal advertisements that include the statement “when part of a nutritionally balanced breakfast” are trying to suggest thatA. the cereal is a desirable part of a healthful, balanced breakfast.B. the cereal contains equal amounts of all nutrients.C. cereal is a healthier breakfast than other foods are.D. the cereal is the most nutritious part of the breakfast meal.14. The word “adept”(Paragraph 3)in the passage is cl osest in meaning toA. responsible.B. skillful.C. patient.D. curious.15. In paragraph 4, why does the author mention a show about a cartoon lion in which an advertisement appears featuring the same lion character?A. To help explain what is meant by th e term "host selling” and why it can be misleading to children.B. To explain why the role of celebrities in advertising aimed at children has often been confused with host selling.C. To compare the effectiveness of using animated figures with the effectiveness of using celebrities in advertisements aimed at children.D. To indicate how Kunkel first became interested in studying the effects of host selling on children.Passage 4 Methods of Studying Infant Perception In the study of perceptual abilities of infants, a number of techniques are used to determine infants' responses to various stimuli. Because they cannot verbalize or fill out questionnaires, indirect techniques of naturalistic observation are used as the primary means of determining what infants can see, hear, feel, and so forth. Each of these methods compares an infant's state prior to the introduction of a stimulus with its state during or immediately following the stimulus. The difference between the two measures provides the researcher with an indication of the level and duration of the response to the stimulus. For example, if a uniformly moving pattern of some sort is passed across the visual field of a neonate (newborn), repetitive following movements of the eye occur. The occurrence of these eye movements provides evidence that the moving pattern is perceived at some level by the newborn. Similarly, changes in the infant's general level of motor activity —turning the head, blinking the eyes, crying, and so forth — have been used by researchers as visual indicators of the infant's perceptual abilities.Such techniques, however, have limitations. First, the observation may be unreliable in that two or more observers may not agree that the particular response occurred, or to what degree it occurred. Second, responses are difficult to quantify. Often the rapid and diffuse movements of the infant make it difficult to get an accurate record of the number of responses. The third, and most potent, limitation is that it is not possible to be certain that the infant's response was due to the stimulus presented or to a change from no stimulus to a stimulus. The infant may be responding to aspects of the stimulus different than those identified by the investigator. Therefore, when observational assessment is used as a technique for studying infant perceptual abilities, care must be taken not to over-generalize from the data or to rely on one or two studies as conclusive evidence of a particular perceptual ability of the infant.Observational assessment techniques have become much more sophisticated, reducing the limitations just presented. Film analysis of the infant's responses, heart and respiration rate monitors, and nonnutritive sucking devices are used as effective tools in understanding infant perception. Film analysis permits researchers to carefully study the infant's responses over and over and in slow motion. Precise measurements can be made of the length and frequency of the infant's attention between two stimuli. Heart and respiration monitors provide the investigator with the number of heartbeats or breaths taken when a new stimulus is presented. Numerical。

考研真题：广东财经大学2022年[英语写作与翻译]考试真题Part I Writing （100分）（1）Summary Writing. (1题，共40分)Directions: Please read the following passage, and write a summary around 120-150 English words without copying the complete sentences from the text.Not long ago, I took in one of the conversations you’re not supposed to have. It turned on whether Vladimir Nabokov, author of Lolita, really desired underage girls. The usual arguments came out: Nabokov was a master of personae, and Humbert Humbert a game to him. Kinbote, analogous narrator of Pale Fire, didn’t make you think Nabokov loved boys. The late novels were Nabokov’s allegories of the seductions of aestheticism, which transfigures the forbidden into the beautiful; or moral paintings of our acceptance of crime, when crime is presented alluringly. So love of the wrong subject becomes a metaphor for art, ethics, personality, and so forth.I was reluctant to say that I felt these explanations were inadequate and even in bad faith. The trouble with Lolita is plainly its ability to describe what a sexual twelve-year-old looks like. What her dress is like when it brushes her knees, what her toes are like with painted nails, how the color sits on the plump bow of her lips—the phrase for these is that it is “too real”; that’s the scandal. It continues to be the scandal fifty years after publication, and it will be a scandal whenever adult acknowledges the capacity upend his vision and see a child, protected larval stage of the organism, as a sexual object. The girl is still a child, only now she is a sex child. Yet this makes me feel Nabokov was not a pedophile but something he is not credited with being—a social critic.You, too, see it, or should. The trend of these fifty years has been to make us see sexual youth where it doesn’t exist, and ignore it as it does. Adults project the sex of children in lust, or examine children sexually with magnifying glasses to make sure they don’t appeal to us. But these lenses became burning glasses. The hips of Betty Grable melted and disappeared. The breasts of Marilyn Monroe ran off and were replaced with silicone. The geography of fashion created new erogenous zones—pelvic midriff, rear cleavage—for dieters starving off their secondary sex characteristics, and for young teens, in the convergence of the exerciser and the pubescent child. The waif and pixie became ideal. Mama and daughter look the same again before the bedroom mirror—not dressed up in Mama’s pearls and heels this time, but in children’s wear. The dream belongs to sixteen, or to those who can starve themselves to sixteen.The critic Philip Fisher used to note that Lolita, tightly plotted as it is, repeats one scene twice. Humbert spies a lit window far opposite. Because he longs to see a nymphet, he sees one. The wave of arousal returns, its tide dampening him up to his knees. As he nears the climax, the form is refocused as an adult woman or man. Disgusting! But this is the simple inversion of a characteristic experience of our time. A man will see a distant form, in low-cut top and low-slung jeans, and think he is on the trail of eroticism; draw near, and identify a child. Revolting! The defenses against it continue the problem. The more a whole nation inspects the sex characteristics of children to make sure it is not becoming aroused by childishness, and slyly hunts around to make sure its most untrustworthy members are not being so aroused, the more it risks creating a sexual fascination with the child. However you gaze, to accept the fantasy or to assure yourself you see nothing, you join in an abomination.（2）Essay Writing (1题，60分)Cyber-violence has become a new form of violence in our real world. The cyber mob will abuse language, pictures and other media to injure one’s reputation or image, even initiate man-hunting. Please write an essay on cyber-violence, with English words around 500 words.Part II Translation(50分)（1）English-Chinese Translation (25分)I was introduced to George, a Cotswold mason(石匠). He is in his seventies but still at it. When I met him he was engaged in the almost lost art of dry-walling, pulling down some ramshackle old walls and converting their materials into smooth solid rampart. He was a little man, with a dusty puckered face and an immense upper lip so that he looked like a wise old monkey; and he has spent all his long life among stones. There were bits of stone all over him. He handled the stones about him, some of which he showed to us, at once easily and lovingly, as women handle their babies. He was like a being that had been created out of stone, a quarry gnome. He was a pious man, this old George, and when he was not talking about stone walls, he talked in a very quiet evangelical strain about his religious beliefs, which were old and simple. Being a real craftsman, knowing that he could do something better than you or I could do it, he obviously enjoyed his work, which was not so much toil exchanged for so many shillings but the full expression of himself, his sign that he was old George the mason and still at it. Bad walls, not of his building, were coming down, and good walls were going up. The stones in them fitted squarely and smoothly and were a delight to the eye and a great contentment to the mind, so weary of shoddy and rubbish. I have never in my life done anything so thoroughly and truly as that old mason did his building.（2）Chinese-English Translation (25分)“一年之计在于春”，光读这平仄已让人心觉希望。

The unpunctuality of the Orient, for example, is appalling to those who come freshly from a land of fixed meal times and regular train services. For a modern American or Englishman, waiting is a psychological torture. An Indian accepts the blank hours with resignation, even with satisfaction. He has not lost the fine art of doing nothing. Our notion of time as a collection of minutes，each of which must be filled with some business or amusement，is wholly alien to the Oriental，just as it was wholly alien to the Greek. For the man who lives in a pre-industrial world, time moves at a slow and easy pace；he does not care about each minute，for the good reason that he has not been made conscious of the existence of minutes.（2）汉译英（共30分）请用得体的语气和措辞翻译以下求职信及其回信：求职信亲爱的先生：我现申请到贵公司担任任何负责职务。

However, Mr. Whelpton's suggested condition that teachers in these schools must be fully bilingual may be unnecessary. For example, primary teachers can and do function with a smaller vocabulary than secondary teachers. Secondly, it is doubtful that students will use English because they "understand and accept theobjective of making English the language of the classroom" which is a rather sterile explanation. One reason that Canadian bilingual programs work is because of the commitment to Whole Language Learning, that is, children learn a language, (first or second), by using it to transmit (播送) or receive meaningful messages that are interesting, real and important. They want to make their needs and desires known and to understand the world around them. Bilingual programs integrate language and content in an activity-based, child-centered manner so that the child is motivated to use the second language as a tool to transmit and receive messages related to social and academic interests.Mr. Whelpton's third argument that all the students in one class need to be at approximately the same level of English proficiency (熟练) when they switch to English is unrealistic and unprofitable. How does a teacher group children who have a huge vocabulary but poor grammar skills with others who have correct grammar but a poor vocabulary? Also, suppose the students have similar language abilities but different learning styles! Therefore the concept of Cooperative Learning: students with a mixture of personalities, talents and weaknesses (a more realistic reflection of life) learn better as they cooperate (合作), instead of compete, and depend on each other for support and information.31. How would you describe the writer's style?A. Written in an academic style.B. Written in a journalistic style.C. Written in a personal style.D. Written on the basis of widespread research in the area.32. How would you describe the writer's attitude towards the Canadian bilingual programs?A. Balanced.B. Unenthusiastic.C. Supportive.D. Critical.33. In Paragraph 1 the writer ________.A. agrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentB. agrees partially with Mr. Whelpton's argumentC. disagrees completely with Mr. Whelpton's argumentD. is overwhelmingly critical of Mr. Whelpton's argument34. In Paragraph 2 "sterile" is closest in meaning to ________.A. uninformativeB. unusualC. exaggeratedD. uninspiring35. According to the writer the Canadian bilingual programs have been a success ________.A. because students accept the objective of making English the language of the classroomB. because students study in classrooms where everybody is at about the same levelC. because the students can use their first language freelyD. because they work towards real life goalsQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the same passage or dialog.Some cynical experts feel that the automobile is bound to fall into disuse. They see a day in the not-too-distant future when all autos will be abandoned. Other authorities, however, think the auto is here to stay. They hold that the car will remain a leading means of city travel in the immediate future.The motorcar will undoubtedly change significantly over the next 30 years. It should become smaller, safer, and more economical, and should not be powered by the gasoline engine. The car of the future should be far more pollution-free than present models.Regardless of its power source, the auto in the future will still be the main source of traffic congestion (拥挤) in cities. One proposed solution to this problem is the computerized highway system.When the auto enters the highway system, a retractable (可伸缩的) arm will drop from the autoand make contact with a rail, which is similar to those powering subway trains electrically. Once attached to the rail, the car will become electrically powered from the system, and control of the vehicle will pass to a central computer. The computer will then monitor all of the car's movements.The driver will use a telephone to dial instructions about his destination into the system. The computer will calculate the best route, and reserve space for the car all the way to the correct exit from the highway. The driver will then be free to relax and wait for the buzzer (蜂鸣器) that will warn him of his coming exit. It is estimated that a computerized highway will be able to handle 10,000 vehicles per hour, compared with the 1,500 to 2,000 vehicles that can be carried by a present-day highway.36. One significant improvement in the future car will probably be ________.A. its power sourceB. its driving systemC. its monitoring systemD. its seating capacity37. What is the author's main concern?A. How to make automobiles pollution-free.B. How to abandon automobiles in the future.C. How to solve the problem of traffic jams.D. How to develop a computerized subway system.38.
