2011年十月联考英语模拟试题及答案（二）Section I Use of EnglishDirections: Read the following text. Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on Answer Sheet 1 (10 points)History has served up important lessons that show what happens when a company or individual tries to avoid _1_ the existence of a crisis. Look _2_ to the Exxon Valdez oil tanker fiasco when Exxon chief Lawrence Bawl stonewalled journalists. _3_ that official silence did was fuel the distrust of the public and cause a backlash where customers cut their Exxon credit cards _4_ disgust. The _5_ side of the coin is the classic Johnson & Johnson (J & J) Tylenol tampering case. In that instance, where some kook poisoned bottles of Tylenol, J&J's CEO James Burke acknowledged the crisis _6_ its first night and ordered all Tylenol _7_ the supermarket shelves until the situation was _8_.Now which corporate executive do you think came out on top? By acknowledging the _9_, James Burke was able to get everyone moving together toward a solution. With Exxon's _10_ to acknowledge the Valdez oil spill, everyone was _11_ in pointing the blame versus working together toward a solution. Acknowledgement up front not only appeases your customers, but also _12_ the opportunity for your competitors to _13_ or capitalize on false rumors. You remove the competitor's trump card. By the time Exxon came around to acknowledging _14_ happened with that oil spill in Alaska, it had to _15_ with the public-relations nightmare of dispelling all of the untruths that developed lives of their own before the company could _16_ deal with the real problem situation._17_ yourself a favor and acknowledge a disastrous incident up front. Then get to work making things work better. Remember, by acknowledging a disaster, we aren't suggesting that you _18_ and accept blame. Acknowledging the situation is merely an act of admitting that it _19_ exist and creates an atmosphere _20_ to moving toward a solution.1. A. abandoning B. acknowledging C. accounting D. advancing2.

Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet 1 (40 points)Text 1When an invention is made, the inventor has three possible courses of action open to him: he can give the invention to the world by publishing it, keep the idea secret, or patent it.A granted patent is the result of a bargain struck between an inventor and the state, by which the inventor gets a limited period of monopoly (垄断) and publishes full details of his invention to the public after that period terminates.Only in the most exceptional circumstances is the life-span of a patent extended to alter this normal process of events.The longest extension ever granted was to Georges Valensi; his 1939 patent for color TV receiver circuitry was extended until 1971 because for most of the patent's normal life there was no color TV to receive and thus no hope of reward for the invention.Because a patent remains permanently public after it has terminated, the shelves of the library attached to the patent office contain details of literally millions of ideas that are free for anyone to use and, if older than half a century, sometimes even re-patent. Indeed, patent experts often advise anyonewishing to avoid the high cost of conducting a search through live patents that the one sure way of avoiding violation of any other inventor's right is to plagiarize a dead patent. Likewise, because publication of an idea in any other form permanently invalidates further patents on the idea, it is traditionally safe to take ideas from other areas of print. Much modern technological advance is based on these presumptions of legal security.Anyone closely involved in patents and inventions soon learns that most 'new' ideas are, in fact, as old as the hills. It is their reduction to commercial practice, either through necessity or dedication, or through the availability of new technology that makes news and money. The basic patent for the theory of magnetic recording dates back to 1886. Many of the original ideas behind television originate from the late 19th and early 20th century. Even the V olkswagen rear engine car was anticipated by a 1904 patent for a cart with the horse at the rear.21. The passage is mainly about _____________________.A. an approach to patentsB. the application for patentC. the use of patentsD. the access to patents22. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. When a patent becomes out of effect, it can be re-patented if necessaryB. It is necessary for an inventor to apply for a patent before he makes his invention publicC. A patent holder must publicize the details of his invention when its legal period is overD. One can get all the details of a patented invention from a library attached to the patent office23. Georges Valensi's patent lasted until 1971 because __________________.A. nobody would offer any reward for his patent prior to that timeB. his patent could not be put to use for an unusually long timeC. there were not enough TV stations to provide color programmesD. the color TV receiver was not available until that time24. The word "plagiarize (Line 5, Para. 5) most probably means "_______________"A. steal and useC. make publicB. give reward toD. taken and change25. From the passage we learn that __________________.A. an invention will not benefit the inventor unless it is reduced to commercial practiceB. products are actually inventions which were made a long time agoC. it is much cheaper to buy an old patent than a new oneD. patent experts often recommend patents to others by conducting a search though dead patents Text TwoAmitai Etzioni is not surprised by the latest headings about scheming corporate crooks (骗子). As a visiting professor at the Harvard Business School in 1989, he ended his work there disgusted with his students' overwhelming lust for money. "They're taught that profit is all that matters," he says. "Many schools don't even offer ethics (伦理学) courses at all."Etzioni expressed his frustration about the interests of his graduate students. "By and large, I clearly had not found a way to help classes full of MBAs see that there is more to life than money, power, fame and self-interest." He wrote at the time. Today he still takes the blame for not educating these "business-leaders-to-be." "I really feel like I failed them," he says. "If I was a better teacher, maybe I could have reached them."Etzioni was a respected ethics expert when he arrived at Harvard. He hoped his work at the university would give him insight into how questions of morality could be applied to places where self-interest flourished. What he found wasn't encouraging. Those would be executives had, says Etzioni, little interest in concepts of ethics and morality in the boardroom-and their professor was met with blank stares when he urged his students to see business in new and different ways.Etzioni sees the experience at Harvard as an eye-opening one and says there's much about business schools that he'd like to change. "A lot of the faculty teaching business are bad news themselves," Etzioni says. From offering classes that teach students how to legally manipulate contracts, to reinforcing the notion of profit over community interests, Etzioni has seen a lot that's left him shaking his head. And because of what he's seen taught in business schools, he's not surprised by the latest rash of corporate scandals. "In many ways things have got a lot worse at business schools, I suspect," says Etzioni.Etzioni is still teaching the sociology of right and wrong and still calling for ethical business leadership. "People with poor motives will always exist." He says. "Sometimes environments constrain those people and sometimes environments give those people opportunity." Etzioni says the booming economy of the last decade enabled those individuals with poor motives to get rich before getting in trouble. His hope now: that the cries for reform will provide more fertile soil for his long-standing messages about business ethics.26. What impressed Amitai Etzioni most about Harvard MBA students?A. Their keen interest in business courses.B. Their intense desire for money.C. Their tactics for making profits.D. Their potential to become business leaders.27. Why did Amitai Etzioni say "I really feel like I failed them" (Line 4, Para. 2)?A. He was unable to alert his students to corporate malpractice.B. He didn't teach his students to see business in new and different ways.C. He could not get his students to understand the importance of ethics in business.D. He didn't offer courses that would meet the expectations of the business-leaders-to-be.28. Most would-be executives at the Harvard Business School believed that ________.A. questions of morality were of utmost importance in business affairsB. self-interest should not be the top priority in business dealingsC. new and different principles should be taught at business schoolsD. there was no place for ethics and morality in business dealings29. In Etzioni's view, the latest rash of corporate scandals could be attributed to ________.A. the tendency in business schools to stress self-interest over business ethicsB. the executives' lack of knowledge in legally manipulating contractsC. the increasingly fierce competition in the modern business worldD. the moral corruption of business school graduates30. We learn from the last paragraph that ________.A. the calls for reform will help promote business ethicsB. businessmen with poor motives will gain the upper handC. business ethics courses should be taught in all business schoolsD. reform in business management contributes to economic growthText ThreeIn science, a theory is a reasonable explanation of observed events that are related. A theory often involves an imaginary model that helps scientists picture the way an observed event could be produced.A good example of this is found in the kinetic molecular theory, in which gases are pictured as being made up of many small particles that are in constant motion.A useful theory, in addition to explaining past observations, helps to predict events that have not as yet been observed. After a theory has been publicized, scientists design experiments to test the theory. If observations confirm the scientists' predictions, the theory is supported. If observations do not confirm the predictions, the scientists must search further. There may be a fault in the experiment, or the theory may have to be revised or rejected.Science involves imagination and creative thinking as well as collecting information and performing experiments. Facts by themselves are not science. A the mathematician Jules Henri Poincare said: "Science is built with facts just as a house is built with bricks, but a collection of facts cannot be science any more than a pile of bricks can be called a house."Most scientists start an investigation by finding out what other scientists have learned about a particular problem. After known facts have been gathered, the scientist comes to the part of the investigation that requires considerable imagination. Possible solutions to the problem are formulated. These possible solutions are called hypotheses.In a way, any hypothesis is a leap into the unknown. It extends the scientist's thinking beyond the known facts. The scientist plans experiments, performs calculations, and makes observations to test hypotheses. For without hypotheses, further investigation lacks purpose and direction. When hypotheses are confirmed, they are incorporated into theory.31. Which of the following is the main subject of the passage?A. The importance of models in scientific theories.B. The place of theory and hypothesis in scientific investigation.C. The sorts of facts that scientists find most interesting.D. The ways that scientists perform different types of experiments.32. According to the second paragraph, a useful theory is one that helps scientists toA. find errors in past experimentsB. observe eventsC. make predictionsD. publicize new findings33. Bricks are mentioned in paragraph 3 to indicate howA. mathematicians approach scienceB. building a house is like performing experimentsC. science is more than a collection of factsD. scientific experiments have led to improved technology34. In the fourth paragraph, the author implies that imaginations are most important to scientists when theyA. evaluate previous work on a problemB. formulate possible solutions to a problemC. gather known factsC. close an investigation35. In the last paragraph, what does the author imply is a major function of hypotheses?A. Sifting through known factsB. Communicating a scientist's thoughts to othersC. Providing direction for scientific researchD. Linking together different theoriesText FourIf two scientists at Los Alamos National Laboratory are correct, people will still be driving gasoline-powered cars 50 years from now, giving out heat-trapping carbon dioxide into the atmosphere-and yet that carbon dioxide will not contribute to global warming. The scientists, F. Jeffrey Martin and William L. Kubic Jr., are proposing a concept, which they have patriotically named Green Freedom, for removing carbon dioxide from the air and turning it back into gasoline.The idea is simple. Air would be blown over a liquid solution which would absorb the carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide would then be extracted and subjected to chemical reactions that would turn it into fuel. Although they have not yet built a fuel factory, or even a small prototype, the scientists say it is all bused on existing technology. "Everything in the concept has been built, is operating or has a close cousin that is operating." Dr. Martin said. The proposal does not violate any laws of physics,and other scientists have independently suggested similar ideas.In the efforts to reduce humanity's emissions of carbon dioxide, three solutions have been offered: hydrogen-powered cars, electric cars and biofuels. Biofuels are gasoline substitutes produced from plants like corn or sugar cane. Plants absorb carbon dioxide as they grow, but growing crops for fuel take up wide strips of land. Hydrogen-powered cars emit no carbon dioxide, but producing hydrogen requires energy, and if that energy comes from coal-fired power plants, then the problem has not been solved. The problem with electric cars is that they have typically been limited to a range of tens of miles as opposed to the hundreds of miles that can be driven on a tank of gas.Gasoline, it turns out, is an almost ideal fuel (except that it produces carbon dioxide). If it can be made out of carbon dioxide in the air, the Los Alamos concept may mean there is little reason to switch, after all."It's definitely worth pursuing." said Martin I. Hoffert, a professor of physics at New York University. "It has a couple of pieces to it that are interesting." Other scientists also said the proposal looked promising but could not evaluate it fully because the details had not been published.36. What is most remarkable about the proposal made by the two scientists?A. It is given a patriotic name.B. No law of physics is violated.C. It is base on existing technology.D. Carbon dioxide can be converted into fuel.37. What is the biggest problem with hydrogen-powered cars?A. There is no cheap source of hydrogen.B. There might be a safety problem in hydrogen production.C. They may still be a cause of global warming.D. They are not suitable for long-distance travel.38. If what is proposed by the two scientists becomes true______A. air pollution will become a thing of the pastB. there will be no need for gasoline substitutesC. people will be able to use much cheaper energyD. there will be no more biofuel-powered vehicles39. Which of the following can best describe the attitude of Martin I .Hoffert to the proposal?A. IndifferentB. PositiveC. SuspiciousD. Critical40. The passage is mainly written to________A. introduce a new conceptB. compare different energy sourcesC. stress the importance of gasolineD. discuss solutions to global warmingPart BDirections: Read the following text and then answer the questions by marking T if the statement is true or F if the statement is not true. Mark your answers on Answer Sheet 1 (10 points) Prospects of EducationIn the information Age---an era defined by knowledge workers---nothing will be as important as education. Yet today's educational system is a creature of the Industrial Age, a factory system for mass-producing minds. That is simply not up to the task of preparing our children---and us---for the rigors（严酷）of the Digital Age. Ours is an era of nearly unfathomable expansion of knowledge. It's said that about 80 percent of all the scientists who ever lived are alive and working today. The sum total of the world's knowledge is roughly doubling every four years.Experts devoted to full-time study of their specialties can't keep up with all the cutting-edge developments in their fields. How can we expect that of teachers---let alone students?And this is just the beginning. We're only now computerizing our entire society and building an information infrastructure（基础设施）that will push everything into warp speed.Fortunately, the same digital technologies that are spurring on this knowledge glut can also help provide a way out. Individualized learning will turn teachers into mentors.Until now, a teacher facing a class of 30 kids had to decide whether to gear the lesson to the fast or slow kids and to choose the one style of learning in which the whole class would proceed.Multimedia personal computers, using text and sound and photos and video, hold the potential to tailor lessons to the peculiarities of each individual mind in the room. They'll proceed at that individual's pace and be driven by the individual's natural curiosity.These new technologies will provide tools to better address the complex learning needs of the modern student.However, that means the time-honored role of the teacher almost certainly will change dramatically. No longer will teachers be the fonts of knowledge with all the answers that children seek. They can't possibly fulfill that role in the coming era. Instead they'll be more like mentors (指导者) or coaches who inspire or motivate the students to find the answers themselves. They'll be problem-solvers who help keep the students moving down their own learning tracks.The purpose of teaching will essentially remain the same---but the style will be much different. Schools will be smaller and more plentiful, like today's day care.Multimedia interactive learning will make possible a much more decentralized educational system and will do away with the need to physically gather students in large numbers at central sites.Future education may be lifelong independent learning. In the Digital Age, formal education will be more focused on learning how to learn rather than on mastering a specific body of knowledge that will quickly become obsolete (陈旧过时的).The emphasis will be on becoming adept at the learning tools, on mastering concepts quickly, on thinking critically, on expressing oneself effectively---preparing the student for lifelong independent learning.In a very real sense, our education will never end. That may mean that our formal education will technically end much earlier than it does now. (Do we all really need the standard 12 to 16 years of study before we're allowed to get on with our lives?)Or it may mean that we'll maintain lifelong relationships with institutions of higher education---ones that might not be the same colleges and universities that we look to today. Perhaps we'll never graduate.41. Though nothing is more important than education in the Information Age, the present educational system is inadequate to prepare children for the requirements of the new era.42. Teachers are devoted to full-time study of their specialties, and are therefore capable of keeping up with the latest developments in their own fields.43. The new technologies will help deal with the complex learning needs of the modern students.44. In the Digital Age, educational focus will be on learning how to learn rather than on masteringa specific body of knowledge.45. In the future, our education will end much earlier than it does now so we can graduate at an earlier age.Section IV TranslationDirections: In this section there is a passage in English. Translate the following parts into Chinese and write your version on Answer Sheet 2 (15 points)46.Glance at share prices or short-term growth forecasts and you might feel comforted. Output has stopped shrinking in all the world's big economies. In its latest forecasts the IMF reckons global GDP will expand by 3.1% next year, 1.2 percentage points faster than it forecast in April. Global stockmarkets have rallied by 64% since their trough. Corporate finance, once frozen, is thawing fast. Bearish analysts are once again having to justify their pessimism.Yet closer inspection suggests caution. Despite a welcome return to growth, the world economy is far from returning to "normal" activity. Unemployment is still rising and much manufacturing capacity remains idle. Many of the sources of today's growth are temporary and precarious. The rebuilding of inventories will not boost firms' output for long. Across the globe spending is being driven by government largesse. Massive fiscal and monetary stimulus is cushioning the damage to households' and banks' balance-sheets, but the underlying problems remain. In America and other former bubble economies, household debts are worryingly high, and banks need to bolster their capital. That suggests consumer spending will be lower and the cost of capital higher. The world economy may see a few quarters of respectable growth, but it will not bounce back to where it would have been had the crisis never happened.Section IV WritingPart A47.

Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Passage OneIt happens to us all, however hard we may try to delay the process---we grow old. Surgery may remove wrinkles （皱纹）, skin which has become less firm may be tightened by a surgical operation on the face, and hair dressers may dye grey hair a more youthful color. But we cannot remain young forever.Advances in medicine have made it possible for more people to stay alive longer. However what is important is the quality of life, and people age differently. Some people remain quite well and able to look after themselves when they get old. But others of the same age are not so lucky. They have to go into a nursing home in order to receive adequate care.The worst aspect of ageing is that often the mind becomes less alert. As people grow older,they often experience loss of short-term memory, although they may well be able to recall quite easily events that happened long ago. Later they may suffer from dementia （痴呆）, a disease which gets gradually worse.By no means all elderly people are in this category. Many senior citizens are in possession of all their faculties and see retirement as a time of freedom. Not only that, if they have a generous retirement pension, they are likely to be quite well off, with money to spend on holidays and other luxuries. Because of this, both businesses and government have a new respect for what is known as grey power.By no means, however, does everyone treat OAPs with respect. There are some cultures which are noted for the great respect with which they treat their old people, but many people in other cultures regard the old as having a very low status in society and treat them accordingly. They often consider old people as having one foot in the grave. Someone should remind them that they, too, will be old one day.31. Elderly people who cannot look after themselves go to ______.A. nursing homesB. residences close to hospitalsC. community centersD. homes of their children32. The worst aspect of ageing is ________.A. inability to look after oneselfB. low retirement pensionC. getting more and more forgetfulD. inadequate medical care33. What is the reason that businesses respect the elderly?A. The elderly are wise.B. The elderly have knowledge.C. The elderly are mentally alert.D. The elderly have spending power.34. “OAP”( Para.5 ) most likely means “_________”.A. old age programB. old age powerC. old age partyD. old age pensioner35. According to the author, how people treat the elderly relates to _______.A. their occupationsB. their cultural backgroundsC. their education levelsD. the amount of their free timePassage TwoThe swan is mostly silent through its life, unable to sing sweet songs like most other birds, In Ancient times, however, people believed a swan sings the most beautiful song just before it dies. The ancient Greek philosopher Socrates talked of this 2, 300 years ago. Socrates explained that the swan was singing because it was happy. T he bird was happy because it was going to serve the Greek God Apollo. Swans were holy to Apollo, the god of poetry and song.The story of the swan’s last song found a place in the works of other writers, including the early English writers Chaucer and Shakespeare. And the expression “swan song ” has long been a part of the English language. At first, “swan song ” meant the last work of a poet, musician or writer. Now, it means the final effort of any person. Someone’s swan song usually is also considered that person’s finest work.A political expression with a similar meaning is “the last hurrah”. The expression may be used to describe a politician’s last campaign, his final attempt to win cheers and votes. The lasthurrah also can mean the last acts of a politician, before his term in office ends. Writer Edwin O’Connor made the expression popular in 1956. He wrote a book about the final years in the political life of a long time mayor of Boston. He called his book The Last Hurrah.Some language experts say the expression came from a name given to noisy supporters of Andrew Jackson, America’s seventh president. They cheered hurrah so loudly for Andy Jackson during his presidential campaign that they became known as the hurrah boys.Jackson’s hurrah boys also played a part in the election to choose the next president. Jackson’s choice was his vice president, Martin Van Buren. A newspaper of the time reported that Van Buren was elected president: “…by the hurrah boys, and those who knew just enough to shout hurrah for Jackson.” President Jackson really heard his last hurrahs in the campaign of the man who would replace him in the White House.36. In ancient times, people believed that a swan sings most beautifully _______.A. before deathB. when is happyC. for ApolloD. in front of other birds37.

President Jackson’s last hurrah was to ________.A. express his gratitude to his supportersB. win the final cheers from his supportersC. defeat another candidate in the electionD. help his vice president get electedPassage ThreeThere is no question that academic enterprise has become increasingly global, particularly in the sciences. Nearly three million students now study outside their home countries——a 57% increase in the last decade. Foreign students now dominate many U.S. doctoral programs, accounting for 64% of Ph. Ds in computer science, for example.Faculty members are on the move, too. Half of the world’s top physicists no longer work in their native countries. And major institutions such as New York University are creating branch campuses in the Middle East and Asia. There are now 162satellite campuses worldwide, an increase of 43% in just the past three years.At the same time, growing numbers of traditional source countries for students, from South Korea to Saudi Arabia （沙特阿拉伯）, are trying to improve both the quantity and quality of theirown degrees, engaging in a fierce and expensive race to recruit students and create worldclass research universities of their own.Such competition has led to considerable hand-writing in the West. During a 2008 campaign stop, for instance, then-candidate Barack Obama expressed alarm about the threat that such academic competition poses to U.S. competitiveness. Such concerns are not limited to the United States. In some countries worries about educational competition and brain drains have led to academic protectionism. India, for instance, places legal and bureaucratic in front of Western universities that want to set up satellite campuses to enroll local students.Perhaps some of the anxiety over the new global academic enterprise is understandable. Particularly in a period of massive economic uncertainty. But educational protectionism is as big a mistake as trade protectionism is. The globalization of higher education should be embraced. not feared——including in the United States. There is every reason to believe that the worldwide competition for human talent, the race to produce innovative research, the push to extend university campuses to multiple countries, and the rush to train talented graduates who can strengthen economics increasingly knowledge –based economics will be good for the United States, as well.41. A feature of the globalization of the academic enterprise is that more students _____.A. study in foreign countriesB. major in computer scienceC. take joint doctoral programsD. return home after studying abroad42. A satellite campus is probably a branch campus that a university sets up _________.A. in developed countriesB. in another countryC inside another university D. on the Internet43. The word “hand-wringing ”(Para.4) probably means “________”.A. angerB. in another countryC. interestsD. delight44. Academic protectionism is characterized by _____.A. enlarging enrollment of local studentsB. limiting the growth of Ph. D. programsC. creating more satellite campuses abroadD. restricting satellite campuses of foreign universities45. In the last paragraph, the author tries to emphasize that _____.A. the academic enterprise has become globalB. academic competition has led to protectionismC. worries over educational competition are understandableD. educational protectionism cannot be justifiedPassage FourWho says your job leaves you no time to hit the gym? A detailed new study of U. S. physical activity patterns shows that men who work full-time whether their jobs are active or sedentary end up getting more exercise than healthy working –age men without a job.The new study comes from researchers at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), As part of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey in 2003, some, 1, 800 working-age adultswere asked questions about their lifestyle and work habits, and, most importantly, they then agreed to wear an accelerometer—a device to measure their physical activity —over the course of several days.Those data from the accelerometers provide a rare opportunity to nail down how much activity the typical American actually does.They show that men or women who work in active jobs do more physical activity on weekdays than men or women working in sedentary jobs. That’s perhaps not surprising, but the NIH researchers suggest that it still matters because of an ongoing shift in the economy toward sedentary work.The more surprising finding is the one that compares full-time workers to people who don’t work. The study shows that men with full-time jobs do more physical activity than healthy men without jobs. (“Healthy man, ”in this case, were those men who said their primary reason for being out of work was something other than health or disability.) In fact, even sedentary fulltime workers performed more weekday physical activity overall than the healthy non-workers The results looked very different for women. Women in sedentary jobs did less physical activity on weekdays than their healthy non-working peers.So what drives the gender （性别）difference? The study looks at the patterns, and unfortunately can’t provide too much detail about their causes. There could be many possible answers, including, perhaps, different abilities to pay for leisure time activities, or different attitudes about work and physical activity. It could also be that more non-working women than men are choosing to be at home running around full-time after the kids.But the NIH researchers do find evidence, they write, to suggest that, whatever causes the difference, healthy non-working women “are replacing work with active pursuits whereas ”for some reason —“[non-working ]men generally are not.”46. A sedentary job ( Para. 1 ) is one that involves ________.A. staying seated a lotB. intensive concentrationC. moving about a lotD. superb skills47. What is the function of the accelerometers in the study?A. They record people’s physical activities.B. They measure people’s workload.C. They distinguish gender differences.D. They push people to be more active.48. What is a possible reason for non-working women to be physically active?A. They are well-educated.B. Their kids keep them busy.C. They are open-minded.D. Their husbands influence them.49. The study tries to identify________.A. the ongoing economy trendB. evidence for gender differencesC. the American physical activity patternsD. the relation between work and leisure50. Who are the least physically active according to the study?A. Men with sedentary jobs.B. Men with active jobs.C. Healthy women with no jobs.D. Healthy men with no jobs.Part IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are 10 blanks in the following passage. For each numbered blank, there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Ants first captured the attention of software engineers in the early 1990s. A single ant cannot do much on its own. But a group of ants 51 can solve complex problems. That inspired people like Marco Dorigo, who is one of the founders of a 52 known as group intelligence.Ants are good at choosing the shortest possible route between a food 53 and their nest. This reminds us of a classic computational travelling-salesman problem. Given a list of cities and their 54 apart, the salesman must find the shortest route needed to visit each city once. As the number of cities 55 , the problem gets more complicated.Ants solve their own problem using chemical signals called pheromones （信息素）.When an ant finds food, she takes it back to the nest, 56 a pheromone trail that will attract others. The more ants that 57 the trail, the stronger it becomes. 58 the pheromones evaporate （挥发）quickly, so once all the food has been collected, the trail soon goes cold. This rapid evaporation means long trails are less 59 than short ones, all else being equal. Pheromones thus turn the 60 intelligence of the individual ants into something more powerful.51. A. by the way B. as a wholeC. for some timeD. on the average52. A. field B. profession C. company D. fund53. A. range B. source C. chain D. origin54.

A. interrupted B. limited C. considerable D. unreliablePart V Translation (30 minutes, 10 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese and put your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.One of the keys to speaking English like a native is the ability to use and understand casual expressions, or idioms, American English is full of idioms. You won’t learn these expressions in a standard textbook. But you will hear them all the time in everyday conversations. You’ll also meet them in books, newspapers, magazines, and TV shows.Idioms add color to the language. Master idioms and your speech will be less awkward, less foreign. You’ll also understand more of that you read and hear. Often a student of English tries to translate idioms word-for-word, or literally. If you do this, you can end up asking, ”what could thispossibly mean?” This is why idioms are difficult: they work as groups of words, not as individual words. If you translate each word on its own, you’ll miss the meaning and in many cases end up with nonsense.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: You are to write in no less than 120 words on the topic of “What Do I Do to Stay Healthy? ”.

For each of them, there are four choices marked A. B. C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center. Questions 11—15 are based on the following passage:Happiness is becoming a huge area in psychological research and even in government policy, with the UK governmet exploring a ―happiness index‖. It‘s tough, though, to define exactlywhat happiness is, and what makes us happy.There are two broad ways of looking at happiness: short-term happiness (a great cookie, a bottle of wine) and long-term happiness (financial security, achieving your goasl). Both types of happiness are valid, and important. The problem is, they‘re often in competition.Let‘s say you‘ve got a goal of losing 50 pounds this year. You know you‘d be happier and healthier if you weren‘t carrying that extra weight. To achieve long-term happiness, you need to go on a diet. In the short-term, though,it‘s not that easy. A chocolate cake, or a large glass of wine, might seem like just the thing to cheer you up at the end of a long day – or to celebrate with friends. It‘s the same with lots of other goasl.If you‘ve got a tendency to prioritize long-term happiness at the expense of day-to-day pleasures, you should start looking for some small ways to bring a little joy back into your life. I‘m not suggesting that you go out and get drund eve ry might, or that you stuff yourself with cake. There are plenty of other ways to enjoy yourself. Don‘t pin all your hopes of happiness on some far-off future, though. There‘s no point working a 60-hour week and making yourself thoroughly miserable in the belief that things will be perfect as soon as you‘re making a six-figure salary.11. A proper title for the passage is ―________‖.A. Happy Thereafter B Beyond HappinessC. Happiness In, Happiness OutD. Happy Now or in the Future?12. Paragraph 2 is mainly about _______A. what makes us happy C. how we can be happierB. how to understand happiness D.what happiness can bring us13.The example in Paragraph 3 is meant to emphasize that ______.A.both short-term happiness and long-term happiness are importantB.we tend to seek short-term happiness instead of long-term happiness.C.people prefer long-term happiness to short-term happinessD.short-term happiness may contradict long-term happiness14.The word ―prioritize‖ (last paragraph) probably means ―______‖A. treat something as more important than othersB. improve something‘s value of qualityC. put extra emphasis on somethingD. look for something that is difficult to find15.The author suggests in the last paragraph that sacrificing short-term happiness of long-term happiness _______.A. works wellB. can be justifiedC. is not worthwhileD. makes no differenceQusetions 16-20 are based on the following passage:Thanks to the introduction of new drugs, many of the early problems in organ transplants, such as tissue rejection, have, to a great extent, now been solved..However, there remains a major problem. The people in need of transplant surgery far outnumber the available organs.Many countries, such as Britain, have huge waiting lists of people whose lives could be saved by being given a kidney, lung, heart, or liver transplant. Sadly, many of them die before they reach the top of those list.Under the present British policy, people are asked to carry donor (捐赠人) cards, and/or put their mames on the national donor register. Thus, if they lose their lives suddenly, for example, in a traffic accident, they have given permission in advance of their deaths for their organs to be used. If they have not done so, surgeons are faced with the task of asking the grieved relatives for permission to use the organs of the dead. Of course,often the relatives are too upset even to think of such a thing until it is too late. Organ transplants have to take place quit soon after the death of the donor.Dying and donation organs is not something most of us like to think about, and only about 14% of people have registered. Now it has been suggested that, instead of the present register, the should be a register of potential donors who haven‘t made up their minds.16.Nowadays a major problem in transplant surgery is _____.A. the shortage of qualified doctorsB .the lack of transplant organsC.. tissue rejectionD .immature techniques17.It can be inferred from the passage that transplant organs most likely come from ______.A. people who die in fatal accidentsB. criminals who are sentenced to deathC. patients who die from serious diseasesD. people who are mentally healthy18.What is the advantage of registering in advance to donate organs?A. The transplant may take place soon after the death of the donor.B. The donor‘s relatives would agree with the surgery.C. More people would choose donation of their organs ofter death.D. Surgeons will not be liable to any legal consequences.19.The low percentage of people who have registered to donate organs indicates that ___________.A.the present register system doesn‘t workB.dying and donating organs is an unpleasant issueC.very few people know how to donate their organsD.permission from relatives is hard to obtain20.What has been proposed to get more donor organs?A. Asking more people to register to donate organs after death.B. Having more people carry donor cards when they get around.C. Encouraging more people to consider organ donation through registering.D.Getting more people to donate organs by offering huge monetary rewards.Questions 21-25 are based on the following passage:Recently, the American Heart Association surveyed 1000 people nation wide about their thoughts on sodium and heart health. 61% said that they believed sea salt was a low-sodium alternative to table salt. They can be forgiven for thinking so. Sea salt is marketed as a healthy fook, added to soups, potato chips and a wide variety of packaged snacks labeled ―low sodium‖, ―all matural‘ and ―healthy‖ . But in reality, sea salt and table salt are not terribly different, at least chemically. The real defferences are in how the two are used in cooking.Table salt comes from underground salt deposits. Companies that sell it typically add something to keep it from clumping (结块) . During processing , table salt is stripped of many of its natural minerals . Sea salt, on the other hand , is made from evaporated seawater . With little processing , it retains most of its minerals , which some cooks say give it a better falvor .But both contain the same amount of sodium chloride (氢化钠) by weight, which means they contribute equally to total sodium consumption and have the same effect on blood pressure. Officials recommend that adults consume no more than 2,300 milligrams of sodium a day , equivalent to a teaspoon of salt .You should eat less if you are black , hypertensive (患高血压) or older than 40 . Yet most Americans consume more than double the amount they need , mostly from processed foods, so it is best to limit salt – of any kind.21.According to the survey , more than half the people believe that ____,A.table salt should be used in cookingB.it is necessary to eat sea saltC.sea salt is a high-sodium productD.sea salt is a healthier choice than table salt22.The difference between table salt and sea salt lies in that table salt ___.A. contains less natural minerals than sea saltB. forms clumps more easily than sea saltC. tastes better than sea saltD. goes through less processing than sea salt23.The word ―strip‖ in Para. 2 is closet in mearing to ―______‖.A. breakB. addC. removeD. change24. According to the passage , the proper amount of salt consumption isrelated to one‘s __________ .A. appetiteB. ageC. sexD. weight25. According to the passage , Americans ______.A.consume much more salt than they actually needB.consume about 2.300 milligrams of salt a dayC.prefer fresh food to salted processed foodD. try to limit their salt consumption of any kindQuestions 26-30 are based on the following chart ：26.A proper title for the chart is ―_______‖.A.Schedule Chart for Job HuntingB.flow Chart for Recruitment ProcessC.Descriptive Chart for an Open Positionanization Chart for a Hiring Company27.The chart is probably designed for ___________.A.job applicantsB.school graduatesC.the company general managerD.the human resources department28.What happens right after the interview?A.The company will review other interviewees.

Many people think the English Found out about curry from people in India in the 1600s.But 33, wealthy English people were cooking with curry spices bundreds of years 34 British ships traveled to India. In fact, the word ―curry‖ can be found in the English language as far back as 1377. Cooks of wealthy English families created curry dishes, and later these 35 caught on in other parts of England.36 pizza, this dish was probably first made in Persia(what is now Iran).

10-11年初二英语期中上试卷分析
11-12初三英语上期中试卷质量分析
一、试卷分析：试卷试题的题型、题量与中考类似，难度适中，覆盖面广，考查内容全面，有贴紧课文的内容的考查，也有能力题的考查。
既有基础性又有综合性、灵活性。
题型多样，题量充实，难度适中，面向本年级大多数学生。
二、卷面分析：
1.听力部分：共30分，学生得分率偏低，特别是听填信息。
2.单项选择题：共20分，这20道题主要考查学生对基础知识掌握的情况，学生的得分率偏低，证明学生对基础知识掌握得还是不牢固。
3.完型填空：共20分，还有阅读理解30分，这两部分主要考查学生语言的综合运用能力。
4.读写综合：在写作方面，学生不懂得提取信息点，所写出来的句子重复，跑题，句不成句，书写极其粗心、马虎。
在今后教学中应引起注意。
卷面总体情况可看出，学生对基础知识掌握不牢固，单词短语懒得背和写，选择题得分率较高，笔试题懒得动手写，每班有五分之一的学生笔试题留空白。
三、存在问题：1. 总体情况，学生中下层人数多，尖子生不尖，学生学习缺乏主动性和自觉性，学习兴趣不高，接受知识慢。
2.学生基础知识还不够扎实，平时训练还较少，单词短语的考查还不够。
3.学生的综合运用和分析解题能力还有待加强。
四、教学建议： 1.加强基础教学，认真扎实抓学生的单词、短语和课文关。
2.加强听力，阅读和写作能力的训练。
３.要求教师在平时教学中积极创设情景，激发学生学习本科目的积极性，促进口语的交流，学以致用。
４. 加强培优转差，努力提高我校学生的英语水平。

2011年在职研究生英语真题答案及解析
2011年在职攻读硕士学位全国联考英语试题解析第一部分口语交际1. A ：你迟到了40分钟，是不是早上轮胎又坏了？ B ：____________。
A.对,是个好故事。
B.是的,你怎么认为？C.对不起,这样的事不会再发生了.D对,你是了解我的。
【答案】 C 【考点】道歉的恰当表达【分析】从说话人A 的话可知，说话人B 不止一次迟到，而且迟到得比较久。
因而当说话人A 对此表示不满时，说话人B 作出的恰当反应是为自己的行为道歉，而不是用“Yes”或“Right”开头来回答问题。
选项C是表达道歉的恰当方式，因此是正确答案。
2. A：你猜怎么着？苏珊又发表了一篇论文，这可是一个月里的第三篇。
B:________。
A. 我真希望有她的脑袋。
B。
对了，正是如此。
C. 我怎能猜到那件事呢？D. 祝贺你啊。
【答案】A 【考点】对话语的恰当评论【分析】说话人A向说话人B 传递苏珊一个月里发了第三篇论文的信息，后者对此作出反应。
选项B 常用来表示说话人自己不想那样说，但对方说出了口自己也同意，与对方的话语意不符。
选项C是反问句，与上句意思毫不相干。
选项D 用来表示说话人为对方取得的成功等事感到高兴，这也与上句完全不符。
A表达了说话人听到这一信息后对苏珊的羡慕之情，是正确答案。
3.A:我准备回家了。
你想一起走吗？ B: ________我大约一小时后回家。
A.那是个好注意。
B. 决不！C. 好的，谢谢。
D. 不，谢谢。
【答案】D 【考点】对邀请的恰当反应【分析】说话人A向说话人B 发出一起走得邀请。
从说话人B说的后一句话可知，她谢绝了，对方的邀请，因此可以确定正确答案应为D 。
选项A用以表示赞成对方的建议，选项B用以表示表示自己肯定不会做某事，用在这一场合显然不够礼貌；选项C用以表示接受对方的邀请，与后一句矛盾。
4. 说话人A：你永远都猜不到我们学校上周发生什么事了。
说话人B ：_______。
A. 继续，让我感到意外吧。

Above all, good science teaching leads to what might be called a “scientific attitude”. Those who possess it seek answers through observing, experimenting, and reasoning, rather than blindly accepting the pronouncements of others. They weigh evidence carefully and reach conclusions with caution. While respecting the opinions of others, they expect honesty, accuracy, and objectivity and are on guard against hasty judgments and sweeping generalizations. All children should be developing this approach to solving problems, but it cannot be expected to appear automatically with the mere acquisition of information. Continual practice, through guided participation, is needed.
在职攻硕英语联考(阅读)模拟试卷1(题后含答案及解析)
在职攻硕英语联考（阅读）模拟试卷1(题后含答案及解析)题型有： 3. Reading ComprehensionPart III Reading Comprehension (40 minutes, 40 points)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each of the passages is followed by 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.One silly question I simply cannot tolerate is “How do you feel?” Usually the question is asked of a man in action—a man walking along the street, or busily working at his desk. So what do you expect him to say? He’ll probably say, “Fine, I’m all right. “ But you have put a bug in his ear—maybe now he is not sure. If you are his good friend, you may have seen something on his face, or in his walk, that he overlooked that morning. It makes him worrying a little. He looks in a mirror to see if everything is all right, while you go merrily on your way asking someone else, “How do you feel?”Every question has its time and place. It’s perfectly acceptable, for instance, to ask “How do you feel?” if you are visiting a close friend in the hospital. But if the fellow is walking on both legs, hurrying to take a train or sitting at his desk working, it’s no time to ask him that silly question. When George Bernard Shaw, the famous British writer of plays was in his eighties, someone asked him, “How do you feel?” Shaw put him in his place. “When you reach my age,” he said, “either you feel all right or you are dead. “1．According to the writer, greetings, such as “How do you feel?”______.A．show one’s consideration for othersB．are a good way to make friendsC．are proper to ask a man in actionD．generally make one feel uneasy正确答案：D解析：本文说的是：有人不分时间和场合地使用问候语“How do you feel?”(你感觉如何?)简直使人无法忍受。

了解题型分布可以帮助考生有针对性地备考。
难度分析听力听力部分共有两篇短文，分别是一篇对话和一篇独白。
对话主要考查学生的日常生活知识和交际能力，而独白则主要考查学生的听取信息的能力和理解能力。
据考生反应，听力部分难度适中。
选择题选择题的难度较为均衡，包括词汇、语法、语义、文化等方面的考查。

•维持美国银行业系统稳定的手段有监管、调控、查账、存款保险以及给经营困难的银行提供贷款。
50多年以来，这些防范措施已经防止了一些银行业危机。
不过还是有很危急的时候。
1984年的伊利诺伊大陆银行和芝加哥信托公司的倒闭虽然没有导致银行业系统的崩溃，但是影响也不小。
•大陆银行20世纪70年代末期快速成为中西部银行中的领头雁。
可它的一些发展策略是很危险的。
该银行在能源领域发放了很多贷款，包括从俄克拉荷马市的Penn Square银行接管10亿美元。
为了获得放贷所需的资金，大陆银行过度依赖从其他银行借来的短期贷款和30天大额定期存单（银行业的行话称为“热钱”）。
至少有有一位大陆银行官员看到了危险征兆并给她的上级写了备忘录，但并未受到重视。
尽管货币监理经常对大陆银行进行检查，但也没能发现问题的严重性。
•Good Management Can Help the Organization Achieve Its Desired
Results
• Nowadays, people are increasingly realizing the importance of good management in various fields. Good management is essential to an organization that wants to achieve its desired results. It is a really tough job to manage
human resources for any organization. Especially when the organization
consists of scientists and research workers, the job will become more
challenging.
• As far as I am concerned, when dealing with this issue, there are several aspects to be considered. First of all, the manager should avoid simple and
rather straightforward approaches when communicating with research staff,
because research staff are all learned and highly bigoted individuals who have independent thinking. If the manager wants to solve the problems, he must know what the researchers are doing, thinking and talking about. Secondly, the
manager must show his sincerity whenever discussing something with scientific staff, because these scientific staff are decent people and sensitive to the way of treatment.
• All statements above indicate that a good manager should do his utmost to create a harmonious environment for research and offer best living conditions to scientific staff.。
