太阳从西边落山,恐惧却从我心头升起,那年我才13岁。
山村的夜色中,黑黢黢的野山像一幅剪纸阴森地贴在窗户的玻璃上,诺大的的屋子里,只剩下我和妹妹。
山中的狼群,一声一声凄厉的哀号;常常将我与妹妹从梦中惊醒。
我们住在一所山村学校,叫喊声未必能让远处的人家听见。
忽然,我想起了哨子—母亲上体育课用的哨子。
鼓起胸膛,拼命地让全部的气流吹出尽可能最大的声响。
渐渐地,我听见了家门前由远及近嘈杂的脚步声,大声说话的声音。
窗外交织着手电筒的光亮,我听见乡亲们喊我的名字。
开了门,一群人扛着锄头站在我家门前,他们都是周围熟悉的乡亲。
善良的黑脸,热切的目光,一群人由衷地关爱,驱散了我内心的恐惧。

厦门大学英语专业考研真题---2004阅读及英美文学、语言学
2004年招生专业英语语言文学考试课程阅读及英美文学、语言学417Part One Reading Comprehension70pointsDirections:Each passage is followed by questions based on its content.After reading the passage,choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage.Passage1The tap dancer,like the flamenco performer,is basically an improviser.Thus looking at tap one wants to savor the personality and inventiveness of the individual.When Bill Robinson danced in the movies,his technical skill and sophisticated rhythms could be heard as well as seen.The Nicholas Brothers ran up walls or the proscenium arch of the theater or jumped off platforms and landed in splits on the floor.Peg Leg Bates,who had lost a leg,made a specialty out of dancing with his wooden leg.Sandman Sims scattered sand on the floor(as Fred Astaire did in one of his films) and tapped ever so softly,slid and turned in dances as soothing as lullabies.1.What does the passage mainly discuss?(A)The styles of various tap dancers(B)The structure of the modern dance theater(C)The difference between flamenco and tap dancing(D)The use of dance in certain movie productions2.According to the passage,in what way is a flamenco dancer similar to a tap dancer?(A)Both perform the same kinds of steps(B)Both rely on individual inventiveness(C)Both are trained in classical techniques(D)Both make very little noise3.An acrobatic style of dancing was most closely associated with which of the following performers?(A)Peg Leg Bates(B)Bill Robinson(C)The Nicholas Brothers(D)Sims and Astaire4.Which two dancers used sand in their routines?(A)Robinson and Sims(B)The Nicholas Brothers(C)Bates and Robinson(D)Sims and Astaire5.The author implies which of the following about tap dancing?(A)It is more complex than flamenco dancing(B)It is meant to be heard as well as seen(C)It became popular primarily because of the movies(D)It should be performed by at least two people.Passage2The science of meteorology is concerned with the study of the structure,state,and behavior of the atmosphere.The subject may be approached from several directions,but the scene cannot be fully appreciated from any advantage point.Different views must be integrated to give perspective to the whole picture.One may consider the condition of the atmosphere at a given moment and attempt to predict changes from that condition over a period of a few hours to a few days ahead.This approach is covered by the branch of the science called synoptic(天气的)meteorology.Synoptic meteorology is the scientific basis of the technique of weather forecasting by means of the preparation and analysis of weather maps and aerological diagram.The practical importance of the numerous applications of weather forecasting cannot be overestimated.In serving the needs of shipping,aviation,agriculture,industry,and many other interests and fields of human activity with accurate weather warnings and professional forecast advice,great benefits are reaped in the form of the saving of human life and property and in economic advantages of various kinds.One important purpose of the science of meteorology is constantly to strive,through advanced study and research,to increase our knowledge of the atmosphere with the aim of improving the accuracy of weather forecasts.The tools needed to advance our knowledge in this way are the disciplines of mathematics and physics applied to solve meteorological problems.The use of these tools forms that branch of the science called dynamic meteorology.6.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A)The Limitations of Meteorological ForecastingB)New Advances in Synoptic MeteorologyC)Approaches to the Science of MeteorologyD)The Basics of Dynamic Meteorology7.The prediction of synoptic meteorologists are directly based on the____(A)application of the physical sciences(B)preparation and study of weather maps(C)anticipated needs of industry(D)observations of commercial airline pilots8.Which of the following is NOT referred to by the author as a field whose needs are served by weather forecasting?A)Transportation.B)Manufacturing. C)Farming.D)Sports.9.The author implies that increased accuracy in weather forecasting will lead to____.A)more funds allocated to meteorological researchB)greater protection of human lifeC)a higher number of professional forecastersD)less-specialized forms of synoptic meteorology10.Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the third paragraph of the passage?A)A procedure is explained and its importance is emphasized.B)Two contrasting views of a problem are presented.C)Recent scientific advancements are outlined in order of importance.D)A problem is examined and possible solutions are given.11.In the last sentence of the passage,the phrase“these tools”refers to____.A)weather forecastsB)meteorological problemsC)mathematics and physicsD)economic advantagePassage3There are three basic ways in which individual economic units interact with one another.They are the market system,the administered system, and the traditional system.In a market system,individual economic units are free to interact among each other in the market place.Transactions may take place through barter or money exchange.In a barter economy,real goods such as automobiles,shoes,and pizzas are traded against each other.Obviously,finding somebody who wants to trade an old car in exchange for a sailboat may not always be an easy task.Hence the introduction of money as a medium of exchange eases transactions considerably.An alternative to the market system is administered control by some agency over all transactions.This agency will issue laws or commands as to how much each goods and service should be produced,exchanged,and consumed by each economic unit.Central planning may be one way of administering such an economy.The central plan drawn up by the government shows the amount of each commodity produced by the various firms and distributed to different households for consumption.In a traditional society,production and consumption patterns are governed by tradition.Each person′s place with the economic system is fixed by parentage,religion,and custom.Transactions take place on the basis of tradition,too.People belonging to a certain group or caste may have an obligation to care for other persons,provide them with food and shelter,care for their health,and provide for their education.Clearly,in a system where every decision is made on the basis of tradition alone progress may be difficult to achieve.12.What is the main purpose of the passage?A)To explain the science of economics.B)To outline types of economic systems.C)To argue for the superiority of one economic system.D)To compare barter and money exchange markets.13.In the second paragraph,by which of the following could the word"real"best be replaced?A)High quality.B)Concrete.C)Utter.D)Essential.14.According to the passage,a barter economy can lead toA)rapid speed of transactionsB)misunderstandingsC)inflationD)difficulties for the traders15.According to the passage who has the greatest degree of control on an administered system?A)Individual households.B)Small businesses.C)Major companies.D)The government.Passage4What is the future for cities?Why does one inner-city neighborhood become a slum and another a high-class district?Why does one city attract new shopper and visitors while another languishes?Camden,New Jersey,displays the strong contrast that characterize American urban areas.The central city of Camden houses an isolated underclass., while suburban Camden County prospers.The population of the city of Camden has declined from117,000in1960to less than80,000today.Nearly 85percent of the city’s residents are black and Hispanic,while the white population has declined from90,000in1960to10,000today.Only1 percent of the households remaining have annual incomes of more than$50,000,compared with20percent in the rest of the country and10percent among all black households.More than40percent of Camden’s residents are under eighteen,closer to the level found in developing countries than to eh rest of the United States.Job prospects are not promising for these young people,because more than half have left school without obtaining a high-school diploma.In the past,Camden’s youths could find jobs in factories that produced Campbell’s soups,Esterbrook pens,and RCA Victor records,radios,and televisions,but the city has lost90percent of its industrial jobs.The Esterbrook and Campbell factories in Camden are closed,though Campbell’s corporate offices remain:General Electric now operates the former RCA factory but with a labor force at only15percent of the level during the 1960s.Camden’s unemployment rate is more than twice the national average.As Camden’s population and industries decline,few shops have enough customers to remain open.The city once had thirteen movie theaters, but none are left.The murder rate soared after gangs carved up the city into districts during the mid-1980s to control cocaine trafficking.Meanwhile,Camden County–excluding the city–has grown from275,000in1960to more than400,000today.Cherry Hill has more than 75,000residents today,compared to less than10,000in1960,and will surpass Camden as the largest city in the county before the end of the decade. About85percent of Cherry Hill’s high-school graduates go on to college.Cherry Hill has attracted so many new jobs that the major obstacles to further economic growth is a shortage of qualified workers.Camden’s mismatch between the locations of people,jobs,resources,and services exemplifies the urban crisis throughout the United States,as well as in other countries.Geographers help us to understand why these patterns arise,and what be done about them.16.Which of the following is NOT TRUE?A)Camden County is larger than the city of Camden.B)Cherry Hill’s economy is sluggishC)The white people have moved to the suburbs.D)General Electric now employs less workers than it used to.17.What is the author most likely to do in the following section?A)Elaborating on geographical patterns of other areas.B)Quoting government policies in favor of her view.C)Highlighting statistics in support of her argument.D)Proposing possible solutions to the problem.Passage5For a long time we have worked hard at isolating the individual family.This has increased the mobility of individuals;and by encouraging young families to break away from older generations and the home community,we have burdened every small family with tremendous responsibilities once shared within three generations and among a large number of people–the nurturing of small children,the initiation of adolescents into adulthood,and care of the sick and disabled and the protection of the aged.What we have failed to realize to realize is that even as we have separated the single family from the larger society,we have expected each couple to take on a range of obligations that traditionally have been shared within a family and a wilder community.So all over the world there are millions of families left alone,as it were,each in its own box–parents faced with the specter of what may happen if either one gets sick,children fearful that their parents may end their quarrels with divorce,and empty-handed old people without any role in the life of the next generation.Then,having reduced little by little to almost nothing the relationship between families the community,when families get into trouble because they cannot accomplish the impossible,we turn their problems over to impersonal social agencies,which can act only in a fragmented way because they are limited to patchwork programs that often are too late to accomplish what is most needed.Individuals and families do get some kind of help,but what they learn and what those who work hard within the framework of social agencies convey,even as they try to help,is that families should be able to care for themselves.18.According to the author,when young families are isolated,______A)old people can easily accept the change B)people can move from place to placeC)individuals can hardly become innovative D)economy develops at high speed19.What is said to be the major problem facing young couples?A)They need to be fulfill more dutiesB)They are incapable of balancing the budgetC)They have their children spoiled and overindulgedD)They get empty-handed after divorce.20.The author implies that________.A)social agencies in America can be very helpfulB)the help of American families from social agencies is limited.C)the government should do more to improve patchwork programs.D)the fragmentary nature of the American family is unique.Passage6Throughout human history there have been many stringent taboos concerning watching other people eat or eating in the presence of others. There have been attempts to explain these taboos in terms of inappropriate social relationships either between those who are involved and those who are not simultaneously involved in the satisfaction of a bodily need,or between those already satiated and those who appear to be shamelessly gorging.Undoubtedly such elements exist in the taboos,but there is an additional element with a much more fundamental importance.In prehistoric times,when food was so precious and the on-lookers so hungry,not to offer half of the little food one had was unthinkable,since every glance was a plea for life.Further,during those times,people existed in nuclear or extended family groups,and the sharing of food was quite literally supporting one’s family or,by extension,preserving one’s self.21.If the argument in the passage is valid,taboos against eating in the presence of others who are not also eating would be LEAST likely in a societythat(A)always had a plentiful supply of food(B)emphasized the need to share worldly goods(C)emphasized the value of privacy(D)discouraged overindulgence22.According to the passage,the author believes that past attempts to explain some taboos concerning eating are(A)implausible(B)incomplete(D)ill-founded(D)inelegantPassage7Air,like words,is a form of communication.Words,spoken and written,render accessible to humans of the latest generations all the knowledge discovered by the experience and reflection,both of preceding generations and of the best and foremost minds of their own times.Art renders accessible to people of the latest generations all the feelings experienced by their predecessors,and those already felt by their best and foremost contemporaries.Just as the proceeds through art.Feelings less kind and less necessary for the well-being of humankind are replaced by other kinder and more essential to that end.This is the purpose of art,and the more art fulfills that purpose that better the art;the less it fulfills it,the worse the art.23.The author develops the passage primarily by____(A)theory and refutation(B)example and generalization(C)question and answer(D)inference and deduction24.According to the author,knowledge is____(A)evolutionary and emotional(B)cumulative and progressive(C)static and unmoving(D)dynamic and cyclical25.The style of the passage can best be described as_____(A)speculative(B)argumentative(D)expository(D)sarcasticPassage8Our current system of unemployment compensation has increased nearly all sources of adult unemployment seasonal and cyclical variations in the demand for labor,weak labor force attachment,and unnecessarily long durations of unemployment.First,for those who are already unemployed, the system greatly reduces the cost of extending the period of unemployment.Second,for all types of unsteady work–seasonal,cyclical and casual –it raises the net wage to the employee,relative to the cost of the employer.As for the first,consider a worker who earns$500per month or$6000per year if she experiences no employment.If she is unemployed for one month,she loses$500in gross earnings but only$116in net income.How does this occur?A reduction of$500in annual earning reduces her federal,payroll and state tax liability by$134.Unemployment compensation consists of50percent of her wage or$250.Her net income therefore falls from$366if is employed,to$250paid as unemployment compensation.Moreover,part of the higher income from employment is offset by the cost of transportation to work and other expenses associated with employment;and in some industries,the cost of unemployment is reduced further or even made negative by the supplementary unemployment benefits paid by employers under collective bargaining agreements.The overall effect is to increase the duration of a typical spell of unemployment and to increase the frequency with which individuals lose jobs and become unemployed.The more general effect of unemployment compensation is to increase the seasonal and cyclical fluctuations in the demand for labor and the relative number of short-lived casual jobs.A worker who accepts such work knows she will be laid off when the season ends.If there were no unemployment compensation,workers could be induced to accept such unstable jobs only if the wage rate were sufficiently higher in those jobs than in the more stable alternative.The higher cost of labor,then would induce employers to reduce the instability of employment by smoothing production lags,by additional development of off-season work and by the introduction of new production techniques,e.g.new methods of outdoor work in bad weather.Employers contribute to the state unemployment compensation fund on the basis of their own previous employers.Within limits,the more benefits that those former employees draw,the higher is the employer’s tax rate.The theory of experience rating is clear.If an employer paid the full cost of the unemployment benefits that his former employees received,unemployment compensation would provide no incentive to an excess use of unstable unemployment.In practice,however,experience rating is limited by a maximum rate of employer contribution.For any firm which pays the maximum rate,there is no cost for additional unemployment and no gain from a small reduction in unemployment.The challenge at this time is to restructure the unemployment system in a way that strengthens its good features while reducing the harmful distinctive effects.Some gains can be achieved by removing the ceiling on the employer’s rate of contribution and by lowering the minimum rate to zero.Employers would then pay the full price of unemployment insurance benefits were taxed in the same way as other earnings.This would eliminate the anomalous situations in which a worker’s net income is actually reduced when he returns to work.26.The author’s primary concern is to_______(A)defend the system of unemployment compensation against criticism(B)advocate expanding the benefits and scope of coverage of unemployment compensation(C)point to weakness inherent in government programs which subsidize individuals(D)suggest reform to eliminate inefficiencies in unemployment compensation27.The author cites the example of a worker earning$500per month in order to______(A)show the disincentive created by unemployment compensation for that worker to return to work(B)demonstrate that the employers do not bear the full cost of worker compensation(C)condemn workers who prefer to live on unemployment compensation to taking a job(D)explain why employers prefer to hire seasonal workers instead of permanent workers for short-term jobs28.The author mentions all of the following as ways by which employers might reduce seasonal and cyclical unemployment EXCEPT_______(A)developing new techniques of production not affected by weather(B)slowing delivery schedules to provide work during slow seasons(C)adopting a system of supplementary benefits for workers laid of in slow periods(D)finding new jobs to be done by workers during the off-season.29.With which of the following statements about experience rating would the author most likely agree?(A)Experience rating is theoretically sound,but its effectiveness in practice in undermined by maximum contribution ceilings(B)Experience rating is an inefficient method of computing employer contribution because an employer has no control over the length of anemployee’s unemployment(C)Experience rating is theoretically invalid and should be replaced by a system in which the employee contributes the full amount of benefits hewill later receive.(D)Experience rating is basically fair,but its performance could be improved by requiring large firms to pay more than small firms.30.It can be inferred that the author regards the unemployment compensation system is______(A)socially necessary(B)economically efficient(C)inherently wasteful(D)seriously outdatedPassage9In the past,evolutionary biologists contemplating the absence of wheels in nature agreed that the explanation was not undesirability;wheels would be good for animals,just as they are for us.Animals were prevented from evolving wheels,the biologists reasoned,by the following dilemma: Living cells in an animal’s body are connected to the heart by blood vessels,and to the brain by nerves.Because a rotating joint is essential to a wheel,a wheel made of living cells would twist its artery,vein,and nerve connections at the first revolution,making living wheels impracticable.However,there is a flaw in the argument that the evolution of wheeled animals was thwarted by the insoluble joint problem.The theory fails to explain why animals have not evolved wheels of dead tissue with no need for arteries and nerves.Countless animals,including us,bear external structures without blood supply or nerves–for example,our hair and fingernails,or the scales,claws,and horns of other animals.Why have rats not evolved bony wheels,similar to roller skates?Paws might be more useful than wheels in some situations,but cat’s claws are retractable;why not retractable wheels?We thus arrive at the serious biological paradox flippantly termed the RRR dilemma:nature’s failure to produce rats with retractable roller skates.31.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?(A)Evolutionary Biology:New Research Methods(B)How Do Living Joints Function?(C)Wheels for Animals:A Biological Possibility?(D)The Evolutionary History of The Wheel32.The passage discusses the evolution of animals in terms of their______(A)genetic structures(B)reproductive cycles(C)anatomy(D)behavior33.The structural material of the wheels discussed in the passage in would be similar to that of______(A)nerves(B)joints(C)arteries and veins(D)scales and horns34.The concept of retractable roller skates,mentioned in the last sentence,would be best explained as______(A)an evolutionary variation of claws(B)a complex structure of living tissue(C)an example of human intervention in natural development(D)a new discovery by evolutionistsPassage10When the persuading and the planning for the western railroads had finally been completed,the really challenging task remained:the dangerous,sweaty,backbreaking,brawling business of actually building the lines.The men who took it on comprised the most cosmopolitan work crew in American history.They included Civil War veterans and freed slaves,Irish and German immigrants,Mormons and atheists,Shoshonis, Paiutes,Washos,and Chinese.At the peak of their labors,the work crews laid two to five miles of track a day.The men filled ravines,ran spidery trestles across rivers and valleys,and punched holes through mountains.And they did all these jobs largely by their own muscle power.Flatcars carried rails to within half a mile of the railhead;there the iron was loaded onto carts.An eyewitness described the procedure:“A light car,drawn by a single horse,gallops up to the front with its load rails.Two men seize the end of a rail and start forward,the rest of the gang taking holding by twos until it is clear of the car.They come forward at a run.At the word of command,the rail is dropped in its place,right side up.Less than thirty seconds to a rail for each gang,and so four rails to down to the minute.”35.Which of the following is the most suitable title for the passage?(A)An Eyewitness Report(B)A Difficult Task(C)The Hiring Of a Construction Crew(D)The Railroad And The Civil War36.According to the passage,in addition to laying railroad track,the work crew did which of the following?(A)Climbed over mountain peaks.(B)Planned railroads.(C)Caught horses(D)Made tunnels.37.In second paragraph,the word“they”refers to______(A)men(B)valleys(C)mountains(D)jobs38.Which of the following phrases could be substituted for the phrased“clear of”(in the third paragraph)without changing the meaning of thesentence?(A)put through(B)visible to(C)away from(D)open toPassage11With the show Rodeo,Agnes de Mille had been an innovator in the world of ballet.But with the show Oklahoma!,she revolutionized the Broadway stage–brought to an end the dance line routine of high kicks and mechanized movement,and gave in its place dance and plot smoothly integrated,choreography reinforcing the action.Twenty-five years later,in March,1968,a New York Times article by the theater critic Walter Kerr, headed“In the Beginning Was Oklahoma!”,stated,“Oklahoma!had a plot.It had to do with whether a boy would succeed in taking emotional implications had to be danced out at great length in what remains the most exhilarating dancing…ever devised for the United States musical comedy stage.”The impact of Oklahoma!was instantaneous.The song“Beautiful Morning”sounded out via radios,in restaurants,from cars passing on the highways,in shoeshine parlors.Full skirts of gingham patterns,street shoes made to look like ballet slippers,the ponytail hairdo,were the rage.The play ran for five years and nine weeks in New York City.A traveling road company played it for nine and a half years.It also toured abroad for several years.In1955it became a movie.A newly assembled all-star company was sent abroad by the State Department as representative of a part of United States culture.As for Agnes de Mille,her days of giving recitals and losing$300to$1,000each time were over.She became the most sought-after choreographer on Broadway.39.What is the author’s main purpose in the passage?(A)To explain the background of the song““Beautiful Morning”(B)To compare Rodeo and Oklahoma!(C)To describe Agnes de Mille’s success with Oklahoma!(D)To discuss the fashions made popular by Oklahoma!40.The author cites Walter Kerr because he was______(A)the composer of the music for Oklahoma!(B)a dancer who performed with Agnes de Mille(C)a critic who praised Agnes de Mille’s choreography(D)the owner of The New York Times41.In the second paragraph,the expression“were the rage”could best be replaced by______(A)created chaos(B)made people crazed(C)made people angry(D)were very popular42.According to the passage,Oklahoma!was selected by the State Department to be performed abroad because it was______(A)considered rather revolutionary(B)representative of an aspect of American life(C)poorly received in New York City(D)an inspiring love story43.The passage implies that prior to Oklahoma!Agnes de Mille had given recitals that were______(A)popular comedy routines(B)financially unsuccessful(C)performed at picnics(D)broadcast over the radioPassage12Lichens are a unique group of complex,flowerless plants growing on rocks and trees.There are thousands kinds of lichens,which come in a wide variety of colors.They are composed of algae and fungi,which unite to satisfy the needs the lichens.The autotrophic green algae produce all their own food through a process called photosynthesis and provide the lichen with nutritional elements.On the other hand,the heterotrophic fungus,which on other elements to provide its food,not only absorbs and stores water for the plant,but also helps protect it.This union by which two dissimilar organisms live together is called"symbiosis".This sharing enables lichens to resist the most adverse environmental conditions found on earth.They can be found in some very unlikely places such as polar ice caps as well as in tropical zones,in dry areas as well in wet ones,on mountain peaks and along coastal areas.。

Its unfamiliarity puzzled him.Slowly he followed it with his eyes,winding in wide sweeps among the bleak,bare hills,bleaker and barer and lower-lying than any hills he had yet encountered.Slowly,deliberately,without excitement or more than the most casual interest,he followed the course of the strange stream toward the sky-line and saw it emptying into a bright and shining sea.He was still unexcited. Most unusual,he thought,a vision or a mirage--more likely a vision,a trick of his disordered mind.He was confirmed in this by sight of a ship lying at anchor in the midst of the shining sea.He closed his eyes for a while,then opened them.Strange how the vision persisted!Yet not strange.He knew there were no seas or ships in the heart of the barren lands,just as he had known there was no cartridge in the empty rifle.(选自《热爱生命和其他故事》英文版Love of Life and Other Stories)B.Translate the following passage into Chinese.(15points)The earth is sometimes called“the blue planet”,because from outer space it appears mostly as blue ocean.But ocean water is salty,and not easily converted to freshwater.The amount of freshwater available for human use is only a small fraction of the amount of water found in oceans or locked away in polar ice caps.Ofthis available freshwater,95percent is located underground.Underground water is motion most of the time,flowing slowly from recharge areas until it discharges into a spring,stream,lake,wetlands or ocean.Groundwater often follows the course of rivers or lies underneath marshes and swamps,keeping rivers from drying up and protecting vegetation when rain is scarce.The upward and downward movement of water through the ground has also a filtering effect, accounting for the generally good quality of groundwater.This means that groundwater is not only better suited for drinking than surface water,it also produces better crop yields.Ⅲ.Writing.(75points)A.Writing task1.(40points)翻译下面一句话,并写一篇作文,谈谈how translators in China can contribute to patriotic education.“爱国主义教育是提高全民族整体素质的基础性工程.....”B.Writing task1.(35points)Read the following passage........discuss your understanding of and your thoughts about“You should be yourself”and“you should not be yourself.”初试指定教材:《英语写作手册》丁往道等主编,外语教学与研究出版社,1984年,或其他高校英语专业写作教材《英汉翻译教程》杨士焯著,北京大学出版社,2011年;《英译汉教程》连淑能编著,高等教育出版社,2006年;《笔译理论与技巧》何刚强编著,外语教学与研究出版社,2009年。

I.Translate the following two passages into Chinese. (35 points) (45 min.)Passage 1Without union(联邦)our independence and liberty would never have been achieved; without union they never can be maintained. Divided into twenty-four, or even a smaller number, of separate communities, we shall see our internal trade burdened with numberless restraints and exactions; communication between distant points and sections obstructed or cut off; our sons made soldiers to deluge with blood the fields they now till in peace; the mass of our people borne down and impoverished by taxes to support armies and navies, and military leaders at the head of their victorious legions becoming our lawgivers and judges. The loss of liberty, of all good government, of peace, plenty, and happiness, must inevitably follow a dissolution of the Union. In supporting it, therefore, we support all that is dear to the freeman and the philanthropist.Passage 2Only those who have not studied history lose heart in great reforms; only those unread in the biography of genius imagine themselves to be original. Except in the realm of material invention, there is nothing new under the sun. There is no reform which some great soul has not dreamed of centuries ago; there is not a doctrine that some father of the Church did not set forth. The Greek philosophers and early Christian Fathers boxed the compass once for all; we may take our choice of what they have left on record. Let us then learn a wise humility, but at the same time a humble wisdom, as we remember that there are but two classes of men—one which declares that our times are the worst the world has seen, and another which claims our times as best—and he who claims this, all revelation, all science, all history witnesses is right and will be right forevermore.II.Translate the following two passages into English. (40 points) (45 min.)Passage 1不可否认,鼓浪屿是一个秀丽的风景区,但它还是一个有独特历史文化素养的地方,这些中西合壁的历史文化需要有人去传承、它的现在和将来都需要有人去建设,去发扬光大,而所有这一切,无不有赖于居住在岛上的“鼓浪屿人”去完成。
2019年厦门大学英语语言文学考研真题回忆
2019年厦门大学英语语言文学考研真题回忆专业课一写作与翻译708强调的一点是这一科考试时间非常紧。
3个小时一篇古文翻译,一篇500字中翻英。
两篇500词英翻中。
中翻英一篇古文翻译,另一篇题材较广,可能是社科类,政府工作报告,文学类。
(今年是文学类翻译,好像是意识流散文)英翻中题材也较广,有政府工作报告,社科类、文学类以及美国总统演讲。
以及两篇300词作文。
(今年一篇是the function of literature,另一个是personal career plan。
)因此翻译速度和写作速度都非常重要,这没有捷径,需要大量的练习才能提升1.翻译1. 古文翻译选自《孟子·非攻》的一段今有一人,入人园圃,窃其桃李,众闻则非之,上为政者得则罚之。
此何也?以亏人自利也。
至攘人犬豕鸡豚者,其不义又甚入人园圃窃桃李。
是何故也?以亏人愈多。
苟亏人愈多,其不仁兹甚,罪益厚。
至入人栏厩,取人马牛者,其不仁义又甚攘人犬豕鸡豚。
此何故也?以其亏人愈多。
苟亏人愈多,其不仁兹甚,罪益厚。
至杀不辜人也,拖其衣裘、取戈剑者,其不义又甚入人栏厩取人马牛。
此何故也?以其亏人愈多。
苟亏人愈多,其不仁兹甚,罪益厚。
当此,天下之君子皆知而非之,谓之不义。
今至大为不义攻国,则弗知非,从而誉之,谓之义。
此可谓知义与不义之别乎?《入院窃李》“今有一人……此可谓知义与不义之别乎?”百度搜,有原文2. 中译英内容不记得了是偏政治性的文章3. 英译中关于AI4. 英译中没大看懂前面讲真正的冒险者是什么样的,报纸媒体宣传的冒险者都是那种商业人士。
后面又讲什么陌生人。
作文写作有2篇,今年第一篇是讲 the function of literature (40分),给了一篇中文的文章,大概讲文学能让我们看到生活的另一面,看到平时看不到的,感受美,然后问你是否同意作者的观点以及为什么。
第二篇作文是:career plan(35分),必须说出 specific job, 以及你为什么选择这个工作,还有如何为它准备。

硕士英语综合教程西安交大版-课后作文
一How to put learner firstWith the development of the society, education has been grown attention by people. So as a developing country, our education is now experiencing a great challenge. How should we improve our educational status quo? The answer is that we should put learner first in the process of education, because students are the subject of education.How to put learner first? In the teaching process, we come up with every idea and established every goal that must depart from the student's own development. Teachers should first prepare students in class, and then prepare knowledge so that every student gets progress, rather than a cookie-cutter to education. Only in this way can it motivate students' learning desire, spontaneous learning makes them, let them have fun in learning,to cater to the students' own development rule, only in this way can china education obtain a good development.In short, students as the main body in the process of education, teachers in the teaching process should more understand each student's own development situation, according to the actual situation of students set teaching plan, and put the students in the first place all the time.二My view on graduate education in chinaGraduate education is an important part of China's higher education. It shoulders the important mission of cultivating advanced talents. However, the current development of postgraduate education is not satisfied.Due to increase enrollment, the education of talent quality becomes lower.There are many reasons about it. First, with the increase number of graduate enrollment, it’s number almost close to the undergraduate enrollment in recent years.Although this kind of situation to adapt to the situation of our country at present stage, improve the whole national culture quality and delay the employment pressure, there are many problem that not allow ignoring, especially the postgraduate education quality problem. Second, there will always be some students who are turned away by the job market in the recruitment process because of a variety of reasons. This is due to the relatively independent between the academic and market demand. Final this problem should be solved immediately so that our country’s the graduate education can get good development.On the whole, while the graduate student education still has some problems, I believe that government will make some relevant measures to solve these problems. It makes the graduate student education a positive development.三The cyberattack in our lifeWith the further development of the internet, all kinds of online activities has become increasingly frequent,this makes the network security issues become more prominent, all kinds of network attack emerge in endlessly, how to prevent network attacks, network environment is particularly important to protect the unit and personal.In the real network environment, the measures of prevention hacker attacks mainly have two aspects: first, we should establish a safe network environment, all kinds of security software installed, updated software and use the latest virus library;Second, we should strengthen our knowledge about computer security, network attack ways and means, we don't open those unsafe websites; Final, we should pay attention to personal account and password protection, develop good habits on the internet.All in all, the government should improve the network information security laws and regulations. At the same time, we should enhance their consciousness of network information security. I believe that one day our network environment will become better.四Romantic love and marriageLove and marriage play an important role in the life of people. I think love is the most important to the marriage, because love is the foundation of the marriage.For us, with love, the couple will have the strong power to face everything in their future life, not for his or her own, but for the other half in their life. It is love that makes their hearts close and makes their life full of warmth. This type of marriage usually brings happiness. Many couples live a happy life because their marriage is based on true love. In real life, however, some people get married just to seek for a life partner, but marriage like this won’t be happy, for the two don’t have the same faith, and their marriage is destined to be a failure. Numerous facts prove that marriage based on true love lasts and cannot be easily split up whereas marriage without love does not endure and may end in divorce.In my opinion, love is romantic and marriage is realistic. However, no matter how love should be the premise of marriage. Marriage is not a game and we have to consider many issues, such as family and children. So when we consider the marriage must be realistic and want to think calmly. That makes it possible to obtain a successful marriage.五how to battle the outbreaks of pandemics With the development of the society, people's life quality rise ceaselessly, more and more disease repeated outbreaks. It brought huge influence to people's life. How should we do to prevent various infectious diseases。

千百年来,中华民族一次次战胜了天灾人祸,渡过了急流险滩,昂首挺胸地走到今天。
深重的灾难,铸就了她百折不挠、自强不息的品格。
中华民族的历史证明了一个真理:一个民族在灾难中失去的,必将从民族的进步中得到补偿。
经过半个多世纪的艰苦奋斗,中国有了比较大的发展,经济总量跃居世界前列,但我们仍然是一个发展中国家,同发达国家相比还有很大的差距。
人口多,底子薄,发展不平衡,这种基本国情还没有从根本上得到改变。
中国的人均GDP 水平,排在世界100位之后,仅为英国的1/16左右。
到过中国旅游的朋友,你们所看到的城市是现代的,而我们的农村还比较落后。
到本世纪中叶,中国要基本实现现代化,面临三大历史任务:既要努力实现欧洲早已完成的工业化,又要追赶新科技革命的浪潮;既要不断提高经济发展水平,又要实现社会公平正义;既要实现国内的可持续发展,又要承担相应的国际责任。
中国要赶上发达国家水平,还有很长很长的路要走,还会遇到许多艰难险阻。
但是,任何困难都阻挡不住中国人民前进的步伐,只要我们坚持不懈地努力奋斗,中国现代化的目标就一定能够实现。

Composition (20%)Directions:For this part, you're asked to write a composition in about 150 words on the given topic The Importance of Environmental ProtectionII. Reading Comprehension (20%)Directions: Each of the following passages below is followed by some questions. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions, then mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET II .Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:In 1960 John F. Kennedy became the first Roman Catholic elected to the United States presidency. During the campaign his religion became an issue because some people feared that, once in office, his allegiance(忠贞)to his church might determine his conduct of public policy. Two months before the election, Kennedy discussed this fear in an address in which he said, “I believe in an America where the separation of church and state is absolute -where no Catholic prelate would tell the President, should he be a Catholic, how to act, and no Protestant minister would tell his parishioners for whom to vote.”Kennedy was confronting an issue that has been the source of conflict, even of violence, for more than 2,000 years. The name given to the issue ―church and state ―is misleading, however: Church implies Christianity in one or more of its many denominations(教派). The issue is really between religion and politics. Which shall be the controlling force in a state? Religions other than Christianity have been in conflict or in cooperation with political authorities in many nations. The power of Islam, for examples, is a major concern in the political affairs of the Middle East. In India Hinduism has long been a potent force affecting both the government and the economics of the country. (In 1984 India’s premier, Indira Gandhi, was assassinated by members of the Sikh religion who were opposed to her government. )The relations between religion and government vary in the 20th century. In some cases there is a refusal to admit that government apart from religion is legitimate. This is the case in Iran since the 1979 revolution. There the religious leaders, called mullahs, are in control of the state and claim to rule in the name of Allah, or God, and His word as expressed in their holy book, the Koran.In the United States the situation is the reverse. The constitution specifies a separation of church and state for the mutual benefit of each.In some Western European nations, notably England, Scotland, Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, there are “established,” or state, churches. This means that one denomination, or religious organization, has the support of the state and is to some degree governed by it. Other denominations are tolerated, but they are expected to beself-supporting. (395 words)1.The italicized phrase once in office in the 2nd line, 1st paragraph means ______A.once he walked into his officeB.once he made some official announcementsC.once he represented the Catholic churchD.once he became the president of the United States2.Form Kennedy’s words in the first paragraph, we are told that in the United States ______A)the state never has any opposition from the churchB)the church and the state support each otherC)the church and the state never try to control each otherD)the church can do whatever it likes3.Find three other words that belong to the same category as the word Christianity in the passage. These threewords are ________A)Islam, Allah and KoranB)religion, church and stateC)Kennedy, Gandhi and AllahD)Islam, Hinduism and Sikh4.The writer mentions the situation in Iran and that in the United State because he wants to show ______A)how interesting the conditions in Iran are to the outsiderB)that one religion is superior to the otherC)how sharply countries may differ in the issue of religion and politicsD)that the government leaders are not doing their work properly in Iran5.The best title for the passage is ______A)Kennedy’s Religious AllegianceB)A Comparison of Different Religions in Various CountriesC)The political System in Different CountriesD)Church and StatePassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:A stockbroker, said Woody Allen, is someone who takes your money and invests it until it’s all gone. Sadly, a survey conducted by t he American Stock Exchange, the New York exchange’s smaller rival, suggests that ordinary investors think Mr. Allen is not just funny but right. There is a divergence(歧异,偏离) of interest between investors and the people they employ to execute their investments. If stockbrokers are to survive (and many look doomed on both sides of the Atlantic,) they will have to close this gap.Wrongly but understandably, the exchange is paying more attention to another finding: that only 28% of American investors have “lost confidence” in the stock markets as a result of the October 1987 crash. This is flatly contradicted by the professionals. When stockbrokers were asked their opinion, 81% said that their customers were still troubled by the harm of October 1987. Institutional investors have taken to the hills.Perhaps private investors are put off, not by the markets, but by the people who sell them those markets. In buying and selling shares, private investors say they are more influenced by what they read in newspapers than by what they hear from brokers. Since journalists usually rank alongside second-hand car salesmen in public respect, this should worry brokers. So should the feeling of ordinary shareholders that they are second-class citizens in the stock markets. Most think that the markets are not level playing fields, that the individual investor has little chance against the large institutions. A particular complaint is that institutions are told things first. Stockbrokers admit it : two-thirds agree that “by the time small investors hear about a good stock it’s usually too late.”The investors polled by the American Stock Exchange are not helpless Aunt Millies with egg money in penny stocks. The typical investor questioned is 55 years old, has a university degree and heads a home with an annual income of $80,000. He (most are men) knows about options (买卖特权), zero-coupon bonds (债券、息票) and stock-index funds. He is also a conservative sort of chap, much keener on preserving his capital than on trying to be extremely successful. (372 words)6. What is a stockbroker in the author’s opinion here?A. A shareholder.B.An investor.C. A person employed to carry out investments.D. A salesman employed by a particular company.7. The October-1987-collapse of stock exchange ________.A.made many investors uneasyB.depressed the stock exchangeC.deserted the stock marketD.beat many rivals8. That the stockbrokers look doomed is that ________.A.their customers can’t get over the disaster of Oct.1987B.the public prefer both journalists and second-hand-car salesmen to themC.there has been a drop of public trust in themD.they don’t give timely information to the customer9.

This probably would have mattered little had he not married a wife whose nature was an exact duplicate of his own.Doubtless there exists in this world precisely the right woman for any given man to marry and vice versa; but when you consider that one human being has the opportunity of being acquainted with only a few hundred people, and out of the few hundred that there are but a dozen or less whom one knows intimately, and out of the dozen, one or two close friends at most, it will easily be seen, when we remember the number of millions who inhabit this world, that probably, since the Earth was created , the right man has never yet met the right woman. The mathematical chances are all against such a meeting, and this is the reason that divorce courts exist. Marriage at best is but a compromise, and if two people happen to be united who are of an uncompromising nature there is bound to be trouble.In the lives of these two young people there was no middle distance. The result was bound to be either love or hate, and in the case Mr. and Mrs. Badman it was hate of the most bitter and egotistical kind.5. John Bodman’s temperament was of great consequence because________a)he was dominant in his familyb)he wanted to set a good example for his friendc)his wife didn’t know how to copy documentd)there was no middle distance between the two young people6. Which of the following, according to the writer, is true about marriage?A.Only mathematical chances can determine if the right man will meet and marry the right woman.B.It’s theoretically true that the right woman for a given man to marry does exist in this world.C.It is necessary for one to narrow down the search pool of candidates for a would-be spouse.D.Both the husband and the wife should learn to compromise with their acquaintances and friends.I remember going to the British Museum one day to read up the treatment for some slight ailment of which I had a tough-hay fever, I fancy it was. I got down the book, and read all I came to read; and then in an unthinking moment, I idly turned the leaves, and began to indolently study diseases, generally. I forget which was the first distemper I plunged into--some fearful, devastating scourge, I know—and, before I had glanced half down the list of “premonitory symptoms”, it was borne in upon me that I had fairly got it.7. Why did the man go to the British Museum ?A.To learn about the treatment of a particular disease.B.To put different types of diseases in alphabetical order.C.To find out if liver pills are effective.D.To go and appreciate the collections there.In your hands, my fellow citizens, more than in mine, will rest the final success or failure of our course. Since this country was founded, each generation of Americans has been summoned to give testimony to its national loyalty. The graves of young Americans who answered the call to service surround the globe.8.

WritingSuccessful sports professionals can earn a great deal more money than people in other important professions. Some people think this is fully justified while others think it is unfair.Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.Your composition should be written on Answer sheet in no less than 250 words. You should use your own ideas, knowledge and experience and support your arguments with examples and relevant evidence.It is axiomatic that sports play a significant role in our daily lives.Successful sports professionals can earn higher than people in many other areas, thus many criticisms on their high salaries come out while others hold the points that more money is reasonable. As far as I’m concerned, sports professions’ high salaries are well justified.In the first place, there are many factors that have an impact on a sportsman’s salary. From a national and social perspective, the prizes which athletes win in the games can reveal our comprehensive national strength. The honor can not be judged by how much money a person earns, meanwhile,sportsman can arouse civils’ interests in sports, and it is the healthy life style which government advocates. So nation gives high salary to cultivate more athletes.In addition, unlike other professions, taking part in the sports has the restriction of the age. Take the badminton players for instance, the golden age of them is 18 to 28. When they are elder than that, their balance and flexibility would probably plunge into a low level. Having a high salary means a special guarantee for them.Last but not the least, the honor goes with the challenge together, the fact concealed in the high salary is the tears and sweats athletes sweated in preparing for the games. Higher salaries, more risks. Besides making efforts in surpassing the body limits, many sportsmen even get injured in the exercises.In summary, the high salaries which sports professionals earn are deserved, but we can also notice that only successful players can earn a high salary. It can promote more players to make better and better. At the same time, our society should continuepaying attention to sports field and its achievement.说明:1、加黄体单词都是连词。
