2011英语二强化班:阅读泛讲文章答案与译文必备学习
美式论文、报告写作技巧编者按:美式教育的特点即是课程内容强调学生参与及创新运用,因此,报告便成了常见的考核学生学习成果的方式,比如实验报告、学期报告、专题报告、研究报告及论文(含毕业论文)等。
研究生presentation 及seminar 的机会更是占很大的比重,有些甚至占学期成绩很大比例。
如何完成报告、论文同时得到良好的成绩,是本文提供给有志留学的有心人参考的目的。
美国大学生由於自小已养成自动寻找答案习惯,在启发式的教育环境下,写报告、论文对他们来说比较不陌生,虽然专业知识上美国学生不见得比外籍学生强,但是表达能力由於自小培养,加上英语能力的优势,常比外籍学生在报告、论文方面有较隹的利基。
反之中国学生比较缺乏报告写作的训练,因此如果在留学过程中无法适应美式教育会比较辛苦,其实论文、报告的写作要领其实不难,只要把握技巧就可水到渠成。
通常论文由篇首(Preliminaries),本文(Texts)以及参考资料(References)三部分构成;而这三大部分各自内容如下:(一) 篇首:封面(Title)序言(Preface)谢词(Acknowledge)提要(Summary)目录(Tables and Appendixes)(二) 本文:引言(Introduction)主体,含篇(Part)、章(Chapter)、节(Section) 、以及注释(Footnotes)(三)参考资料:参考书目(References or Bibliography)附录资料(Appendix)。
进行论文或报告写作之前,先要确定想要表达的主题,主题确定后,将其具体表达,即为题目。
题目可以提供研究者:一.研究的方向二.研究的范围三.资料搜集的范围四.预期研究成果通常在确定题目之後就开始找资料从事研究,建议在找资料之前最好去问教授有哪些参考资料来源可供参考引用。
构思为确定写作大纲或Proposal 的先前步骤,大纲是论文、报告的骨干,Proposal 是研究的架构、流程及范围的说明书。

What follows is the cars with Chinese brands, hitting 25% of the auto market, with the share of American brand bottomed out at 15%. In 2009, some developments are noticeable in that the cars with the largest share became those of Chinese brands, which occupied roughly 32% of the market, while cars with Japanese and American brands took 25% and 15% of the whole market respectively.It is observed that between 2008 and 2009, cars of Chinese and Japanese brands took turns to be the No.1 in terms of market share while those with American brands ranked the last in both years. And the share of Chinese-brand cars witnessed a mild increase and that of the Japanese-brand cars saw a moderate decrease, while the American-brand cars stayed the same.From this graph, we can come to the safe conclusion that the Chineseautomakers are doing a good job in outcompeting their Japanese and American counterparts in 2009, but the gap is not so significant and if no efforts were made from the part of the Chinese auto industry, the distribution map might be rewritten in the future.分析:今年考研英语二的作文不是很难。

王江涛2011年考研写作冲刺复习指导
王江涛2011年考研写作冲刺复习指导王江涛2011年考研写作冲刺复习指导新东方在线的各位网友,大家好。
我是北京新东方学校考研写作主讲教师王江涛。
今天是2010年的十一月三号,离明年2011年一月十五号的考研还有最后的73三天。
我们简单讲一下在最后的两个半月,大家可以做什么工作。
因为时间有限,大概我就讲十五分钟。
我今天讲两个内容:第一个内容就是考试题型,那么根据目前我们了解的情况,我们简单预测以下明年的考研。
Women知道现在考研写作题型很多,小作文包括三种题型,大作文包括四种题型。
首先我们说一下小作文,大家知道考研分成英语一和英语二。
那么英语的小作文,我们预测明年有60%考摘要,还有30%会考书信类应用文,包括书信,备忘录还有报告,最后10%会考告示类应用文。
那么英语二,明年有70%会考书信类应用文,另外30%会考摘要。
考告示类应用文的可能性不是很大,因为英语二不论是大纲,还是考试分析,大纲分析。
都没有提到这类题型。
我们简单总结一下,就小作文包括三种题型:第一种叫做书信类应用文,包括书信,备忘录和报告,其实备忘录和报告就是书信,是一个机构内部的书信,备忘录一般是上级写给下级或者同级之间的半正式书信;而报告一般是下级写给上级的正式书信,那么他们和小作文的写法类似。
我们知道小作文是从05年开始考的,从05年到09年这五年的小作文考察的都是书信,10年英语二考察的还是书信,针对英语一,那么明年30%会考书信,英语二70%会考书信。
那么第二类应用文:摘要,大纲也提到了六年了,从大纲05年变动就有摘要这种题型,而且,从去年开始,大纲把小作文变成二选一的题型:一种是书信一种是摘要。
不管是英语一还是英语二都提到了,那么假设考到不属于超纲。
所以我们认为英语一明年大概有60%会考摘要,英语二30%会考摘要。
而且大纲提供了一个样题:《经济全球化的主要原因》。
在2010年的大纲解析中还提供了另外一道模拟题,叫做《蒙泰苏利亚儿童教育观》还有范文,希望去看一下。

2011 年考研英语一的Text2 文章,通过分析大学生就业压力和选择考研的原因,提出了解决这一问题的建议,为我们提供了有益的启示。
II.2011 年考研英语一Text2 的概述Text2 文章以大学生就业压力为背景,探讨了大学生选择考研的原因,并提出了解决这一问题的建议。
文章结构清晰,观点明确,论证充分。
III.Text2 的详细分析文章的第一段描述了当前大学生面临的就业压力,以及他们选择考研的原因。
作者指出,随着大学毕业生数量的不断增加,就业竞争日益激烈,许多大学生选择考研,以提高自己的学历和竞争力。
第二段,作者分析了大学生应该具备的素质和能力。
作者认为,大学生不仅需要具备专业知识,还需要具备良好的沟通能力、团队协作能力和创新能力。
这些素质和能力对于大学生来说至关重要,它们可以帮助大学生更好地适应社会和职场的需求。
在第三段,作者提出了自己的建议。
作者认为,要解决大学生就业压力问题,关键在于提高大学生的综合素质。
为此,作者呼吁教育部门、学校、老师和学生共同努力,改进教育方法和手段,培养学生的综合素质。
IV.对Text2 的总结总的来说,Text2 文章对于我们深入理解大学生就业压力和选择考研的原因具有重要的启示作用。
同时,文章提出的建议也有助于我们思考如何提高大学生的综合素质,以应对日益激烈的就业竞争。

2011考研英语小作文完全解决2_(便笺(便条)和短信)
一、便笺(便条)和短信--概述便条也是书信的一种形式。
它的特点是内容简短,主要有临时性的询问、留言、通知、要求等。
跟正规书信相比,便条的语言比较口头化,比如要通知某事只需这样开头:Just a line to tell you that ...而无须像正规书信那样This is to inform you that ...开头。
另外,在便条中常出现省略现象,例如:“key to back door is under mat.”或者“key to back door under mat .”(后门钥匙在垫子下面)代之以“The key to the back door is under the mat.”。
结束时也无需结尾礼词,只需写上写便条者姓名。
如果是关系比较近的人,则只需写上姓或名。
便条的日期通常写在右上角。
一般只写上星期几或者星期几上午或下午,也可写上午、下午的具体时刻。
日常应用中,写上几月几日的也很普遍。
但一般不写年份,因为便条的内容多半是当日或近日内要办的事情。
写便条时,不得事先准备,因此无固定格式,大多用手写。
便笺(便条)和短信--注意事项1.词句简洁,尽量避免应酬语和各种敬词2.切忌内容空洞、言不达意。
二、便笺(便条)和短信--分类举例--请假(Asking for Leave)例1Directions: You are about to write a Business Leave Note of about 100 words.Please describe these information clearly.1) the reason you ask for the leave2) the time and how long you will leaveClass 4, Grade 3Aug. 22ndTo Department OfficeSecretary Li,I’m sorry to apply for ten day’s leave from the Aug. 23rd to sept.3rd instant.

Wish for your allowance.Yours respectfully×××*本文是一封请假条,一般我们要向上级或老师请假,通常用的是ask for leave 这个短语,请三天假可写作:ask for t hree days’ leave;因病请假则是ask for sick leave。

How about Bill Belichick asking Tom Brady to sign his paycheck? Unlike the world of professional team sports, in professional tennis the players are directly responsible for hiring, firing and financially supporting their coach. So if you're a coach on the tennis circuit, think before you scream at your player, because in tennis, the player is the bank.Tennis is a "no owner" business. For the professional coach, there's no safety net. You are 100% an individual contractor with no owner or general manager to separate you from the player. Long-term contracts don't exist unless you're related by blood, which can also suffer the occasional fallout. Usually agreements are made on monthly or yearly terms, subject to termination based on poor results, poor play or a plain old bad day at the office.Coaching contracts are as individual as the players themselves, and they focus on where the player is and his or her potential. On the professional circuit, this can translate to anything from a handshake deal to a 30-page document. It's a gamble for the coaches. You can only guess the future, but the more information you have, the better you can guess. If you find a good player who you feel has potential and you get in on the ground floor, you're set. You can play it safe and conservative with base pay, or you can put your money on your player.Players don't just pay their coach a salary. They also take on all responsibilities of travel expenses, incidentals and the occasional entourage. Traveling 30 to 35 weeks a year can put a hurt on the player's wallet. It's a burden on lower-ranked players or someone struggling for funds.Success on the court usually attracts profitable endorsements for the player, but the coach rarely sees any of that cash. Coaches may, however, be able to piggyback a deal with their player. Just keep an eye out on the next telecast to see what the coach is wearing--it usually bears thesame logo as the player. Former players turned coaches may maintain endorsements from their days as a pro and make side deals as they transition into their new career. Other than that, it's very rare for the coach to receive outside endorsements.The coach is also at the mercy of the player's level of ability and health. Injuries translate to zero play, which means no salary. This is obviously not good for the player, much less the coach. It's all about prevention and preparation. Having a good coach can make the difference on and off the court, so it's a solid asset to have the right guy in your corner.21. By referring to Phil Jackson and others, the author intends toA. show a tradition in professional team sports.B. reveal a convention in professional tennis.C. contrast two different coaching services.D. caution the coach in professional sports.22. Coaching contracts are risky for the coaches in thatA. improper emphasis is placed on player’s potentialB. they are uncertain of the future of their playersC. good players may get the coaches setD. contracts are subject to frequent change23. The expression “piggyback a deal” (para. 5) most probably meansA. making a side deal by allying himself with the player.B. being offered a fair deal for good coaching service..C. being rewarded with extra payments from the player.D. getting outside endorsements with the help of the player24. What is the author’s advice to a professional tennis player?A. Signing a big contract.B. Paying a right salary.C. Wining a good fund.D. Finding a right coach.25. The best title for the text may beA. Tennis players: all responsibilities.B. Players and coaches: equal partners.C. Coaching in tennis: rough business.D. Professional sports: new challenges.Text 2It is always the way with Airbuses: you wait for years, and then three come along at once. In January, the European aircraft manufacturer will roll out the first of its A380 super-jumbos, in preparation for its first test flight by the end of March. Before that, however, it is set to unveilplans for two versions of a smaller, wide-bodied plane, aimed at the mid-sized market.The rivalry between Boeing and Airbus, the big commercial-aircraft duopoly, has never been more intense. While Boeing struggles to persuade mainstream airlines to buy its latest offering, the 250-seater 7E7, Airbus will soon announce two versions of a new plane, dubbed the A350, to attack it head on. Boeing has high hopes for the 7E7, its first new model in over ten years—after the flop of two earlier proposed products, a near-sonic widebody and a radical upgrade of the venerable 747, which did not find favour with airlines. Adding to its misfortunes, the cancellation this week of a US Air Force order for refuelling tankers means Boeing will soon have to shut the production line making its 767 ageing widebody jet.On November 29th, the board of the parent company of Airbus, European Aeronautic Defence and Space company (EADS), meets to rubber-stamp a decision to launch two souped-up versions of its A330, fitted with new wings and engines to increase the range and carrying capacity and so compete with Boeing’s plane. (33)Boeing’s new design claims to offer savings of 15-20% on fuel by making extensive use of lightweight composite materials instead of the usual aluminium.Anticipating Airbus’s response, last month Boeing persuaded the American government to complain to the World Trade Organisation (WTO) about the subsidies Airbus receives from European governments. Refundable launch aid from Germany, France, Britain and Spain could cover one-third of the over €3 billion cost of developing the A350. (34)Crucially, this aid does not have to be repaid if a plane fails, giving Airbus an unfair advantage in product development, which it has ruthlessly exploited in the past decade.Boeing is spending almost $6 billion to develop the 7E7, with further contributions from its partners in Japan and Italy. The European Union is counter-protesting to the WTO that Boeing gets all sorts of indirect aid from the American government.The likeliest result is that both sides are found guilty of breaking the rules but that subsidy continues to flow. That is what happened in a similar dispute at the WTO between Canada and Brazil, whose two manufacturers share the market for smaller (up to 100 seats) jet aircraft.26. Which of the following is closest to “duopoly” (Para. 2) in meaning ?A. two suppliers dominating a marketB. severe competition between competitorsC. different versions of a new modelD. cooperation between two manufacturers27. Boeing’s new design’s superiority in fuel economy can be attributed to itsA. use of a new type of fuelB. refinement of aluminumC. development of new enginesD. reduction of plane weight28. Boeing’s complaint against Airbus emphasized thatA. it could not obtain as much aid from its own government as the latter.B. WHO should intervene with the unfair competition immediately.C. the latter may not have to repay the financial aid from governments.D. it would lose the competition because of lack of development aid.29. The text implies that WTO’s judgment of the case of Canada vs. Brazil was ?A. futileB. tolerantC. effectiveD. unfair30. The author’s attitude towards the dispute between Boeing and Airbus isA. subjective.B. disinterested.C. prejudiced.D. sympathetic.Text 3There is a good but sobering reason why "ending world hunger" has been a perennial hope of beauty-pageant contestants at least since Miss America contestants began naming that as their greatest wish: we haven't come close to doing it. This year some 900 million people—including 178 million children under 5—are suffering from malnutrition, estimates the United Nations; every day 50,000 starve to death. As the world community scans the horizon for solutions to world hunger, it is seeing visions of amber fields of genetically modified grain.GM crops, however, are likely to feed about as many people as Miss America. A new report by agriculture experts from 60 nations foresees "a limited role for biotech crops" in reducing world hunger. The problems ? Yields for GM varieties are unpredictable and often lower than high-yield varieties bred without genetic engineering. GM seeds, which are patent-protected, cost more than the poor can afford. The know-how and conditions required to cultivate GM crops hardly exist in Africa or South Asia, the world's hunger hot spots, where farmers can't even eke out subsistence yields of ordinary crops.Low-tech aid, not cutting-edge science, therefore has the best chance of both feeding the malnourished today and setting farmers on a path to growing enough to eat (and perhaps sell) tomorrow. The adage says giving a man a fish lets him eat today but giving him a fishing rod lets him eat every day; the 900 million need both fish and rods. The most beneficial and cost-effective immediate aid? Providing micronutrients—vitamins and minerals such as iodine, zinc and iron—to kids. Experts suggested that providing vitamin A and zinc supplements to malnourished infants and toddlers under 2 would cost $60 million annually. That would bring a return in lives saved, diseases averted and cognitive benefits gained of just over $1 billion.And for the fishing rod? In Africa, just 5 percent of the land that could grow high-yielding rice from the green revolution—a decades-old technology—is doing so. A big reason is soils so exhausted they cannot sustain the high-yielding varieties. Fertilizer, which has soared in price in tandem with oil, is beyond the means of most subsistence farmers in Africa today. But here, too, there are low-tech answers. Planting nitrogen-fixing trees, a technique developed by the Earth Institute at Columbia University, supplies soils with that crucial nutrient. But to make it work, says Oxfam's Offenheiser, "you need institutions that provide agricultural extension services," agents who advise farmers on when and how to plant new high-yield seed varieties, and what kind of soil and how much fertilizer they require.31. We learn from the first paragraph thatA. beauty-pageant contestants’ help is appreciated.B. world hunger needs to be handled seriously.C. the world is at a loss how to end hunger.D. genetically modified crops are a solution.32. One reason contributing to “a limited role” of GM crops is theirA. unpredictable varieties.B. lack of genetic engineeringC. demand for technical knowledge.D. potentials of harmful effects.33. The author implies in the text thatA. low-tech aid provides a final solution to world hunger.B. cutting-edge science can help eliminate world hunger.C. genetically modified grain will prove to be a failure.D. hunger problem should be solved once and for all.34. High-yielding rice is not widely grown becauseA. African soils are cultivated for other varieties more easily.B. this decades-old technology has lost its value with time.C. its cultivation depends too much on the use of fertilizers.D. African soils can not provide sufficient nutrition for it .35. According to Offenheiser, agriculture in Africa requiresA. counseling serviceB. green revolutionC. improved technologyD. cheap fertilizerText 4It's almost a point of pride with climatologists. Whenever someplace is hit with a heat wave, drought, killer storm or other extreme weather, scientists trip over themselves to absolve global warming. No particular weather event, they say, can be blamed on something so general. Extreme weather occurred before humans began loading up the atmosphere with heat-trappinggreenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide. So this storm or that heat wave could be the result of the same natural forces that prevailed 100 years ago rather than global warming.This pretense has worn thin. The frequency of downpours and heat waves, as well as the power of hurricanes, has increased so dramatically that "100-year storms" are striking some areas once every 15 years, and other once rare events keep returning like a bad penny. As a result, some climatologists now say global warming is to blame. Rising temperatures boost the probability of extreme weather, says Tom Karl, director of the National Climatic Data Center; that can "lead to the type of events we are seeing in the Midwest." There, three weeks of downpours have caused rivers to treat their banks as no more than mild suggestions.It's been easier to connect global warming to rising temperatures than to extreme weather events—and even the former hasn't been easy. Only in this decade have "attribution" studies managed to finger greenhouse gases as the chief cause of the rising mercury, rather than a hotter sun or cyclical changes. Now the same "whatdunit?" techniques are being applied to droughts, downpours, heat waves and powerful hurricanes. "We can look at climate-model simulations and likely attribute [specific extreme weather] to human activity," says Gerry Meehl of the National Center for Atmospheric Research.Global warming has left its clearest fingerprint on heat waves. Since the record scorcher of 1998, the average annual temperatures in the United States in six of the past 10 years have been among the hottest 10 percent on record. Scientists also discern a greenhouse fingerprint in downpours, which in the continental United States have increased 20 percent over the past century. In a warmer world, air holds more water vapor, so when cloud conditions are right for that vapor to form droplets, more precipitation falls. Get used to it, and don't blame Mother Nature.36. Which of the following statements is true about the climatologists?A. They are unpredictable in their descriptions of natural events.B. They are not interested in the general explanations of extreme weather.C. They pride themselves in respecting the truth more than anything else.D. They reject other scientists’ views of weather as self-contradictory.37. By saying “This pretense has worn thin” (Line 1, Para. 2), the author means thatA. weather pattern has changed dramatically over the century.B. climatologists disagree on the causes of violent weather.C. global warming is to blame for the extreme weather.D. once rare weather events are happening more frequently.38. It may be inferred from the text thatA. it was easy to link global warming to rising temperatures.B. rising temperatures were once regarded as cyclical.C. recent studies have neglected the role of greenhouse gases.D. climate-models were not adequately emphasized in research.39. The record scorcher of 1998 is mentioned to show thatA. heat waves come up more frequently than downpours.B. effect of global warming is most clearly shown in the US.C. global warming is something that man has to get used to.D. human activities are the real cause of extreme weather.40. Which of the following proverbs is closest to the message the text tries to convey?[A] “Facts speak louder than words.”[B] “Man proposes, God disposes.”[C] “Take things as they come.”[D] “Prevention is better than cure.”第三部分——阅读B节一.段落题1. Directions:You are going to read a text about the tips on the use of Wikipedia, followed by a list of explanations (or examples). Choose the best explanation/example from the list A-F for each numbered subheading/generalization(41-45). There is one extra example which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)Wikipedia was founded as an offshoot of Nupedia, a now-abandoned project to produce a free encyclopedia. Nupedia had an elaborate system of peer review and required highly qualified contributors, but the writing of articles was slow. During 2000, Jimmy Wales, founder of Nupedia, and Larry Sanger, whom Wales had employed to work on the project, discussed ways of supplementing Nupedia with a more open, complementary project. Multiple sources suggested that a wiki might allow members of the public to contribute material, and Nupedia's first wiki went online on January 10, 2001.There was considerable resistance on the part of Nupedia's editors and reviewers to the idea of associating Nupedia with a website in the wiki format, so the new project was given the name "Wikipedia" and launched on its own domain, , on January 15 (now called "Wikipedia Day" by some users).What follows are some tips on how to make the best use of Wikipedia.41)Exploring WikipediaMany visitors come to Wikipedia to acquire knowledge, others to share knowledge. At this very instant, dozens of articles are being improved, and new articles are also being created.____________________________________.42)Basic navigation in WikipediaWikipedia articles are all linked, or cross-referenced.________________________________.43)Using Wikipedia as a research toolAs wiki documents, articles are never considered complete and may be continually edited and improved. Over time, this generally results in an upward trend of quality and a growing consensus over a neutral representation of information.Users should be aware that not all articles are of encyclopedic quality from the start: they may contain false or debatable information. Indeed, many articles start their lives as displaying a single viewpoint; and, after a long process of discussion, debate, and argument, they gradually take on a neutral point of view reached through consensus. _____________________________.44)Wikipedia vs. paper encyclopediasWikipedia has advantages over traditional paper encyclopedias._______________________.45)Strengths and weaknesses in WikipediaWikipedia is open to a large contributor base, drawing a large number of editors from diverse backgrounds._____________________________________.The MediaWiki software that runs Wikipedia retains a history of all edits and changes, thus information added to Wikipedia never "vanishes". Discussion pages are an important resource on contentious topics. Therefore, serious researchers can often find a wide range of vigorously or thoughtfully advocated viewpoints not present in the consensus article. As with any source, information should be checked. A 2005 editorial by a BBC technology writer comments that these debates are probably symptomatic of cultural changes that are happening across all sources of information (including search engines and the media), and may lead to "a better sense of how to evaluate information sources.”[A] Anyone can contribute to Wikipedia by clicking on the Edit this page tab in an article. Before beginning to contribute, however, read some handy helping tools such as the tutorial and the policies and guidelines, as well as our welcome page. It is important to realize that in contributing to Wikipedia, users are expected to be civil and neutral, respecting all points of view, and only add verifiable and factual information rather than personal views and opinions. "The five pillars of Wikipedia" cover this approach and are recommended reading before editing.[B] When highlighted text like this is seen, it means there is a link to some relevant article or Wikipedia page with further in-depth information elsewhere. Holding the mouse over the link will often show to where the link will lead. The reader is always one click away from more information on any point that has a link attached. There are other links towards the ends of most articles, for other articles of interest, relevant external websites and pages, reference material, and organized categories of knowledge which can be searched and traversed in a loose hierarchy for more information. Some articles may also have links to dictionary definitions, audio-book readings, quotations, the same article in other languages, and further information available on our sister projects. Further links can be added if a relevant link is missing, and this is one way tocontribute.[C] Wikipedia has a very low "publishing" cost for adding or expanding entries and a low environmental impact in some respects, since it never needs to be printed, although computers have their own environmental cost. In addition, Wikipedia has wikilinks instead of in-line explanations and it incorporates overview summaries (article introductions) with the extensive detail of full articles. Additionally, the editorial cycle is short. A paper encyclopedia stays the same until the next edition, whereas editors can update Wikipedia at any instant, around the clock, to help ensure that articles stay abreast of the most recent events and scholarship.[D] This allows Wikipedia to significantly reduce regional and cultural bias found in many other publications, and makes it very difficult for any group to censor and impose bias. A large, diverse editor base also provides access and breadth on subject matter that is otherwise inaccessible or little documented. It also means that like any publication, Wikipedia may reflect the cultural, age, sex, socio-economic, and other biases of its contributors. There is no systematic process to make sure that "obviously important" topics are written about, so Wikipedia may contain unexpected oversights and omissions. While most articles may be altered by anyone, in practice editing will be performed by a certain demographic and may, therefore, show some bias. Some topics may not be covered well, while others may be covered in great depth.[E] Changes can be viewed at the Recent changes page and a random page at random articles. Over 3,000 articles have been designated by the Wikipedia community as featured articles, exemplifying the best articles in the encyclopedia. Another 12,000 articles are designated as good articles. Some information on Wikipedia is organized into lists; the best of these are designated as featured lists. Wikipedia also has portals, which organize content around topic areas; our best portals are selected as featured portals. Articles can be found using the search box on the top-right side of the screen.[F] Others may, for a while, become caught up in a heavily unbalanced viewpoint which can take some time—months perhaps—to achieve better balanced coverage of their subject. In part, this is because editors often contribute content in which they have a particular interest and do not attempt to make each article that they edit comprehensive. However, eventually, additional editors expand and contribute to articles and strive to achieve balance and comprehensive coverage. In addition, Wikipedia operates a number of internal resolution processes that can assist when editors disagree on content and approach. Usually, editors eventually reach a consensus on ways to improve the article.2. Directions:You are going to read a list of headings and a text about how to select a fund. Choose the most suitable heading from the list A-F for each numbered paragraph (41-45). The first and last paragraphs of the text are not numbered. There is one extra heading which you do not need to use. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.[A]Watching related expenses and making wise choice[B] Paying attention to details[C]Weighing your financial goals and expectations first[D]Maintaining realistic expectations[E]Narrowing the search[F]Not too specialEating better. Exercising. Investing. There are a lot of things you know should be doing. The problem is that getting started always seems to be the hardest part. For many investors, mutual funds are a good way to go, but trying to sort through the number of available choices —now more than 10,000 — makes this important task appear overwhelming. Let’s look at some ways to cut that number down to a reasonable size, as well as other factors to consider when selecting your first fund.41.Before you begin examining potential investments, it’s important to take some time to assess your own goals and risk tolerance. If you start with a clear objective in mind, as well as an understanding as to how you might react if your investment loses money, you’ll be less likely to purchase a fund that doesn’t fit your needs. And that’s what often leads to disappointment. It is important to look for funds that are appropriate for both your goals and your investment temperament.42.One way to begin your search for a good fund is to use the Morningstar star rating. The rating is a useful tool for narrowing the field to funds that have done a good job of balancing return and risk in the past. To assign ratings, Morningstar uses a formula that compares a fund’s risk-adjusted historical performance with that of other funds within four rating groups —domestic stock funds, international stock funds, taxable bond funds, and municipal bond funds.43.Funds that invest solely in a single market sectors, called specialty funds, often have impressive returns and may be great additions to a diversified portfolio. However, the success of such funds depends largely on the fortunes of a particular market sector. Hence, specialty funds probably aren’t the best way to start. For your first fund, look for a diversified stock fund that has exposure to different types of stocks.44.There’s no free lunch in fund investing: in addition to the sales fees that some fund companies charge, fund investors must also pay management fees and trading costs. Unfortunately, you don’t necessarily get what you pay for — no one has ever shown that more expensive funds provide greater returns. Look for funds with reasonable costs. The expense ratio, which expresses annual costs as a percentage amount, is probably the best number to use when。

2011考研英语阅读冲刺讲义
Of all the components 0f'a good night's sleep, dreams seem to be least within our control. In dreams, a window opens into a world where logic is suspended and dead people speak. A century ago, Freud formulated his revolutionary theory that dreams were the disguised shadows of our unconscious desires and fears; by the late 1970s, neurologists had switched to thinking of them as just "mental noise" —the random byproducts of the neural-repair work that goes on during sleep. Now researchers suspect that dreams are part of the mind's emotional thermostat, regulating moods while the brain is "off-line". And one leading authority says that these intensely powerful mental events can be not only harnessed but actually brought under conscious control, to help us sleep and feel better. "It's your dream, " says Rosalind Cartwright, chair of psychology at Chicago's Medical Center. "If you don't like it, change it. "Evidence from brain imaging supports this view. The brain is as active during REM (rapid eye movement)sleep—when most vivid dreams occur—as it is when fully awake, says Dr. Eric Nofzinger at the University of Pittsburgh. But not all parts of the brain are equally involved, the limbic system (the "emotional brain" ) is especially active, while the prefrontal cortex (the center of intellect and reasoning) is relatively quiet. "We wake up from dreams happy or depressed, and those feelings can stay with us all day, " says Stanford sleep researcher Dr. William Dement.The link between dreams and emotions shows up among the patients in Cartwright's clinic. Most people seem to have more bad dreams early in the night, progressing toward happier ones before awakening, suggesting that they are working through negative feelings, generated during the day. Because our conscious mind is occupied with daily life we don't always think about the emotional significance of the day's events—until, it appears, we begin to dream.And this process need not be left to the unconscious. Cartwright believes one can exercise conscious control over recurring bad dreams. As soon as you awaken, identify what is upsetting about the dream. Visualize how you would like it to end instead, it occurs, try to wake up just enough to control its course. With much practice people can learn to, literally, do it in their sleep.At the end of the day, there's probably little reason to pay attention to our dreams at all unless they keep us from sleeping or "we wake up in panic, " Cartwright says. Terrorism, economic uncertainties, and general feelings of insecurity have increased people's anxiety. Those suffering from persistent nightmares should seek help from a therapist. For the rest of us, the brain has its ways of working through bad feeling. Sleep—or rather dream—on it and you'll feel in morning.31. Researchers have come to believe that dreams _______ .[A] can be modified in their courses [B] are susceptible to emotional changes[C] reflect our innermost desires and fears [D] are a random outcome of neural repairs32. By referring to the limbic system, the author intends to show[A] its function in our dreams [B] the mechanism of REM sleep[C] the relation of dreams to emotions [D] its difference from the prefrontal cortex33. The Negative feelings generated during the day tend to _______ .[A] aggravate in our unconscious mind [B] develop into happy dreams[C] persist till the time we fall asleep [D] show up in dreams early at night34. Cartwright seems to suggest that _______ .[A] waking up in time is essential to the ridding of bad dreams[B] visualizing bad dreams helps bring them under control[C] dreams should be left to their natural progression[D] dreaming may not entirely belong to the unconscious35. What advice might Cartwright give to those who sometimes have bad dreams?[A] Lead your life as usual. [B] Seek professional help.[C] Exercise conscious control. [D] Avoid anxiety in the daytime.Text 1If you were to examine the birth certificates of every soccer player in 2006's World Cup tournament, you would most likely find a noteworthy quirk: elite soccer players are more likely to have been born in the earlier months of the year than in the later months. If you then examined the European national youth teams that feed the World Cup and professional ranks, you would find this strange phenomenon to be even more pronounced.What might account for this strange phenomenon? Here are a few guesses: a) certain astrological signs confer superior soccer skills: b) winter-born babies tend to have higher oxygen capacity, which increases soccer stamina; c) soccer-mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime, at the annual peak of soccer mania; d) none of the above.Anders Ericsson, a 58-year-old psychology professor at Florida State University, says he believes strongly in “none of the above. ” Ericsson grew up in Sweden, and studied nuclear engineering until he realized he would have more opportunity to conduct his own research if heswitched to psychology. His first experiment, nearly 30 years ago, involved memory: training a person to hear and then repeat a random series of numbers. “With the first subject, after about 20 hours of training, his digit span had risen from 7 to 20, ” Ericsson recalls. “He kept improving, and after about 200 hours of training he had risen to over 80 numbers. ”This success, coupled with later research showing that memory itself is not genetically determined, led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one. In other words, whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize, those differences are swamped by how well each person “encodes” the information. And the best way to learn how to encode information meaningfully, Ericsson determined, was a process known as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task. Rather, it involves setting specific goals, obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome.Ericsson and his colleagues have thus taken to studying expert performers in a wide range of pursuits, including soccer. They gather all the data they can, not just performance statistics and biographical details but also the results of their own laboratory experiments with high achievers. Their work makes a rather startling assertion: the trait we commonly call talent is highly overrated. Or, put another way, expert performers—whether in memory or surgery, ballet or computer programming—are nearly always made, not born.21. The birthday phenomenon found among soccer players is mentioned to________.[A] stress the importance of professional training[B] spotlight the soccer superstars in the World Cup[C] introduce the topic of what makes expert performance[D] explain why some soccer teams play better than others22. The word “mania” (Line 4, Paragraph 2) most probably means ________.[A] fun [B] craze [C] hysteria [D] excitement23. According to Ericsson, good memory________.[A] depends on meaningful processing of information[B] results from intuitive rather than cognitive exercises[C] is determined by genetic rather than psychological factors[D] requires immediate feedback and a high degree of concentration24. Ericsson and his colleagues believe that ________.[A] talent is a dominating factor for professional success[B] biographical data provide the key to excellent performance[C] the role of talent tends to be overlooked[D] high achievers owe their success mostly to nurture25. Which of the following proverbs is closest to the message the text tries to convey?[A] “Faith will move mountains. ” [B]“One reaps what one sows. ”[C] “Practice makes perfect. ” [D] “Like father, like son. ”Text 2For the past several years, the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called "Ask Marilyn. " People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant, who at age 10 had tested at a mental level of someone about 23 years old; that gave her an IQ of 228—the highest score ever recorded. IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies, to envision paper after it has been folded and cut, and to deduce numerical sequences, among other similar tasks. So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant fields such queries from the average Joe (whose IQ is 100) as, What's the difference between love and fondness? Or what is the nature of luck and coincidence? It's not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.Clearly, intelligence encompasses more than a score on a test. Just what does it mean to be smart? How much of intelligence can be specified, and how much can we learn about it from neurology, genetics, computer science and other fields?The defining term of intelligence in humans still seems to be the IQ score, even though IQ tests are not given as often as they used to be. The test comes primarily in two forms: the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scales (both come in adult and children's version ). Generally costing several hundred dollars, they are usually given only by psychologists, although variations of them populate bookstores and the World Wide Web. Superhigh scores like vos Savant's are no longer possible, because scoring is now based on a statistical population distribution among age peers, rather than simply dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by 100. Other standardized tests, such as the Scholastic Assessment Test (SAT) and the Graduate Record Exam (GRE), capture the main aspects of IQtests.Such standardized tests may not assess all the important elements necessary to succeed in school and in life, argues Robert J. Stemberg. In his article "How Intelligent Is Intelligence Testing?", Stemberg notes that traditional tests best assess analytical and verbal skills but fail to measure creativity and practical knowledge, components also critical to problem solving and life success. Moreover, IQ tests do not necessarily predict so well once populations or situations change. Research has found that IQ predicted leadership skills when the tests were given under low-stress conditions, but under high-stress conditions, IQ was negatively correlated with leadership—that is, it predicted the opposite. Anyone who has toiled through SAT will testify that test-taking skill also matters, whether it's knowing when to guess or what questions to skip.26. Which of the following may be required in an intelligence test?[A] Answering philosophical questions.[B] Folding or cutting paper into different shapes.[C] Telling the differences between certain concepts.[D] Choosing words or graphs similar to the given ones.27. What can be inferred about intelligence testing from Paragraph 3?[A] People no longer use IQ scores as an indicator of intelligence.[B] More versions of IQ tests are now available on the Internet.[C] The test contents and formats for adults and children may be different.[D] Scientists have defined the important elements of human intelligence.28. People nowadays can no longer achieve IQ scores as high as vos Savant's because[A] the scores are obtained through different computational procedures.[B] creativity rather than analytical skills is emphasized now.[C] vos Savant's case is an extreme one that will not repeat.[D] the defining characteristic of IQ tests has changed.29. We can conclude from the last paragraph that[A] test scores may not be reliable indicators of one's ability.[B] IQ scores and SAT results are highly correlated.[C] testing involves a lot of guesswork.[D] traditional tests are out of date.30. What is the author's attitude towards IQ tests?[A] Supportive. [B] Skeptical.[C] Impartial. [D] Biased.。

I was in such a hurry that I packed everything in my luggage without checking carefully. Had I paid more attention then, I wouldn’t have made such a stupid mistake.Now something must be done to solve the problem because I understand you cherish the CD enormously. I can either send it to you by express mail or alternatively compensate you at a reasonable price. If you do not mind, I may bring it back to you next time I go to Canada.Please let me know which solution you prefer at your earliest convenience. I really hope you will accept my sincere apology.Faithfully yours,Li Ming6、P.7 2009年范文Dear Editors,I have been reading your newspaper for many years with a great enthusiasm and interest. It is my view that limiting/prohibiting the use of disposable plastic bags is of utmost significance.To crack this hard nut, I would like to give/offer/render/propose several useful/practical recommendations as follows. First and foremost, it is imperative for us to ban the free use of disposable plastic bags. In addition, we should develop possible alternative forms to replace them, such as paper or clothing bags. Last but not least, plastic bags should be offered in a much higher price in department stores or supermarkets.I hope you would find the above proposals conducive and I would like to discuss this matter to further details. Your prompt attention to my suggestions would be highly appreciated.Yours sincerely,Li Ming7、Directions:You live in a room in college which you share with another student. You find it very difficult to work there because your roommate always has friends visiting and has parties in the room.Write a letter to the Accommodation Officer at the college and ask for a new room next term. You would prefer a single room. Explain your reasons.Dear Sir or Madam,I am writing to express/air dissatisfaction/disappointment/concern regarding accommodation. I would prefer to move into a single room next semester, as I find the present sharing arrangement inconvenient.I must explain that the reason for my dissatisfaction is my roommate’s inconsiderate behavior. For one thing, his friends are constantly visiting him; for another, he regularly holds noisy parties.To solve this problem/surmount this difficulty/improve this situation/crack this hard nut, I hope to draw the attention of the authorities concerned. I am sure you will agree that the only solution for me is to move into a room of my own. Therefore, I would be grateful if you could find a single room for me, preferably not in the same building but as near to the college campus as possible.Yours sincerely,Li Ming8.Directions:One of your friends wants to apply for a job working with foreign teenagers. Write a letter to recommend him/her, describe his/her past experience, and explain the reasons.Dear Sir or Madam,I am writing to recommend one of my best friends, Zhou Botong, for this post. With his outstanding leadership and cheerful personality, he was elected chairperson of the Student Union of Tsinghua University several times.Busy as he was, he completed his major, teenage psychology, with an outstanding school record. Upon graduation he was assigned to be a teacher in Tsinghua Middle School. What is more, he loves his job and enjoys working with children. This won him great popularity among his students.Therefore, I do not hesitate to recommend him as an ideal candidate for the post you advertised. I am sure you will make a wise decision in hiring him.Yours sincerely,Li Ming9.Directions: After being involved in an accident, you were looked after by Mr. Shakespeare. Write a special letter to express your thanks.Dear Mr. Shakespeare,I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude. I am referring to that unfortunate accident the other day, when I was knocked off my bike by a taxi.If it had not been for your timely assistance in giving me first aid,I fear that the consequences might have been much serious. Everyone agrees that it was your quick-witted response in that emergency that has led to this satisfactory outcome.Although nowadays people in mounting numbers talk about the need to be unselfish, we see very few people practice what they preach.If there were more people like you, this world would be a much nicer place.Yours sincerely,Li Ming10、Directions:The Students’ Union of your department is planning a Chinese Speaking Contest.
