2016年广外MTI初试真题回忆完整版
一、选择题1*30分难度较高,跟我们平时做的专四词汇不一样,感觉像是从外刊上直接摘抄下来的句子,有几句是从同一篇摘抄出来的。
考点语法点并不是很明晰,做这30道题我用了半个多小时……感觉广外这两年风格越来越偏向务实了。
二、阅读题4篇文章,共40分材料生词较多,内容也比较新颖,感觉还是从外刊上摘出来的文章。
但是题不难。
三、写作30分题目大概是“some people believe that if a couple have a regular job, they will have a more harmonious family relationship while others have totally different opinion.”让你针对此观点写一篇400词的作文。

Internationalization increases the danger that foreign companies will use import relief laws against the very companies the laws were designed to protect.Suppose a United States-owned company establishes an overseas plant to manufacture a product while its competitor makes the same product in the United States.If the competitor can prove injury from the imports—and that the United States Company received a subsidy from a foreign government to build its plant abroad—the United States Company’s products will be uncompetitive in the United States,since they would be subject to duties.Perhaps the most brazen case occurred when the ITC investigated allegations that Canadian companies were injuring the United States salt industry by dumping rock salt,used to device roads.The bizarre aspect of the complaint was that a foreign conglomerate with United States operations was crying for help against a United States company with foreign operations.The“United States”company claiming injury was a subsidiary of a Dutch conglomerate,while the“Canadian”companies included a subsidiary of a Chicago firm that was the second-largest domestic producer of rock salt.01.The passage is chiefly concerned with______.A.arguing against the increased internationalization of United States corporationsB.warning that the application of laws affecting trade frequently has unintended consequencesC.demonstrating that foreign-based firms receive more subsidies from their governments than United States firms receive from the United States governmentD.advocating the use of trade restrictions for“dumped”products but not for other imports02.It can be inferred from the passage that the minimal basis for a complaint to the International Trade Commission is which of the following?A.A foreign competitor has received a subsidy from a foreign government.B.A foreign competitor has substantially increased the volume of products shipped to the United States.C.A foreign competitor is selling products in the United States at less than fair market value.D.The company requesting import relief has been injured by the sale of imports in the United States.03.The last paragraph performs which of the following functions in the passage?A.It summarizes the discussion thus far and suggests additional areas of research.B.It presents a recommendation based on the evidence presented earlier.C.It cites a specific ease that illustrates a problem presented more generally in the previous paragraph.D.It introduces an additional area of concern not mentioned earlier.04.The passage warns of which of the following dangers?panies in the United States may receive no protection from imports unless they actively seek protection from import competition.panies that seek legal protection from import competition may incur legal costs that far exceed any possible gain.panies that are United States owned but operate internationally may not be eligible for protection from import competition under the laws of the countries in which their plants operate.panies that are not United States owned may seek legal protection from import competition under United States import relief laws.05.According to the passage,the International Trade Commission isinvolved in which of the following?A.Investigating allegations of unfair import competitionB.Granting subsidies to eompanies in the United States that have been injured by import competitionC.Recommending legislation to ensure fair tradeD.Identifying international corporations that wish to build plants in the United StatesPassage BSince the late1970s,in the face Of a severe loss of market share in dozens of industries,manufacturers in the United States have been trying to improve productivity—and therefore enhance their international competitiveness—through cost-cutting programs.(Cost-cutting here is defined as raising labor output while holding the amount of labor constant.)However,from1978through1982,productivity—the value of goods manufactured divided by the amount of labor input—did not improve;and while the results were better in the business upturn of the three years following,they ran25percent lower than productivity improvements during earlier,post-1945upturns.At the same time,it became clear that the harder manufactures worked to implement cost-cutting,the more they lost their competitive edge.With this paradox in mind,I recently visited25companies;it became clear to me that the cost-cutting approach to increasing productivity is fundamentally flawed.Manufacturing regularly observes a“40,40, 20”rule.Roughly4o percent of any manufacturing-based competitive advantage derives from long-term changes in manufacturing structure (decisions about the number,size,location,and capacity of facilities)and in approaches to materials.Another40percent comes from major changes in equipment and process technology.The final20percent rests on implementing conventional cost-cutting.This rule does not imply that cost-cutting should not be tried.The well-known tools of this approach—including simplifying jobs and retraining employees to work smarter,not harder—do produce results.But the tools quickly reach the limits of what they can contribute.Another problem is that the cost-cutting approach hinders innovation and discourages creative people.As Abernathy’s study of automobile manufacturers has shown,an industry can easily become prisoner of itsown investments in cost-cutting techniques,reducing its ability to develop new products.And managers under pressure to maximizecost-cutting will resist innovation because they know that more fundamental changes in processes or systems will wreak havoc with the results on which they are measured.Production managers have always seen their job as one of minimizing costs and maximizing output.This dimension of performance has until recently sufficed as a basis of evaluation,but it has created a penny-pinching,mechanistic culture in most factories that has kept away creative managers.Every company I know that has freed itself from the paradox has done so,in part,by developing and implementing a manufacturing strategy. Such a strategy focuses on the manufacturing structure and on equipment and process technology.In one company a manufacturing strategy that allowed different areas of the factory to specialize in different markets replaced the conventional cost-cutting approach; within three years the company regained its competitive advantage. Together with such strategies,successful companies are also encouraging managers to focus on a wider set of objectives besides cutting costs.There is hope for manufacturing,but it clearly rests on a different way of managing.01The author of the passage is primarily concerned with______.A.summarizing a thesisB.recommending a different approachparing points of viewD.making a series of predictions02It can be inferred from the passage that the manufacturers mentioned in paragraph1expected that the measures they implemented would______.A.encourage innovationB.keep labor output constantC.increase their competitive advantageD.permit business upturns to be more easily predicted03.The primary function of the first paragraph of the passage is to ______.A.present a historical context for the author’s observationsB.anticipate challenges to the prescriptions that followC.clarify some disputed definitions of economic termsD.summarize a number of long-accepted explanations04.The author refers to Ahernathy’s study most probably in order to ______.A.qualify an observation about one rule governing manufacturingB.address possible objections to a recommendation about improving manufacturing competitivenessC.support an earlier assertion about method of increasing productivityD.suggest the centrality in the Unit States economy of a particular manufacturing industry05.The author’s attitude toward the culture in most factories is best described as______.A.cautiousB.criticalC.disinterestedD. respectfulPassage CIt can be argued that much consumer dissatisfaction with marketing strategies arises from an inability to aim advertising at only the likely buyers of a given product.There are threegroups of consumers who are affected by the marketing process.First, there is the market segment—people who need the commodity in question. Second,there is the program target—people in the market segment with the“best fit”characteristics for a specific product.Lots of people—may need trousers,but only a few qualify as likely buyers of very expensive designer trousers.Finally,there is the program audience—all people who are actually exposedto the marketing program without regard to whether they need or want the product.These three groups are rarely identical.An exception occurs in cases where customers for a particular industrial product may be few and easily identifiable.Such customers,allsharing a particular need,are likely to form a meaningful target,for example,all companies with a particular application of the product in question,such as high-speed fillers ofbottles at breweries.In such circumstances,direct selling(marketing that reaches only the program target)is likely to be economically justified,and highly specialized trade media existto expose members of the program target—and only members of the program target—to the marketing program.Most consumer-goods markets are significantly different.Typically, there are many rather than few potential customers.Each represents a relatively small percentage of potential sales.Rarely do members of a particular market segment group themselves neatly into a meaningful program target.There are substantial differences among consumers with similar demographic characteristics.Even with all the past decade’s advances in information technology, direct selling of consumer goods is rare,and mass marketing—-a marketing approach that aims at a wide audience-remains the only economically feasible mode.Unfortunately,there are few media that allow the marketer to direct a marketing program exclusively to the program target.Inevitably,people get exposed to a great deal of marketing for products in which they have no interest and so they become annoyed.01.The passage suggests which of the following about highly specialized trade media?A.They should be used only when direct selling is not economically feasible.B.They can be used to exclude from the program audience people who are not part of the program target.C.They are used only for very expensive products.D.They are rarely used in the implementation of marketing programs for industrial products.02.The passage suggests which of the following about direct selling?A.It is used in the marketing of most industrial products.B.It is often used in cases where there is a large program target.C.It is not economically feasible for most marketing programs.D.It is used only for products for which there are many potential customers.03.The author mentions“trousers”in paragraph1most likely in order to______.A.make a comparison between the program target and the program audienceB.emphasize the similarities between the market segment and the program targetC.provide an example of the way three groups of consumers are affected by a marketing programD.clarify the distinction between the market segment and the program target04.“the product in question”in Line5,Paragraph2means______.A.“the product in the previous question”B.“the product under discussion”C.“the product on sale”D.“the product in doubt”05.It can be inferred from the passage that which of the following is true for most consumer-goods markets?A.The program target and the program audience are not usually identical.B.The program audience and the market segment are usually identical.C.The market segment and the program target are usually identical.D.The program target is larger than the market segment.Cloze TestMost economists in the United States seem captivated by the spell of the free market.__16__.A price that is determined by the seller or, for that matter,established by anyone other than the aggregate of consumers seems pernicious.__17__.In fact,price-fixing is normal in all industrialized societies because the industrial system itself provides,as an effortless consequence of its own development,the price-fixing that it requires.Modern industrial planning requires and rewards great size.Hence,a comparatively small number of large firms will be competing for the same group of consumers.That each large firm will act with consideration of its own needs and thus avoid selling its products for more than its competitors charge is commonly recognized by advocates of free-market economic theories.__18__.Each large firm will thus avoid significant price-cutting,because price-cutting would be prejudicial to the common interest in a stable demand for products. Most economists do not see price-fixing when it occurs because they expect it to be brought about by a number of explicit agreements among large firms;it is not.Moreover,those economists who argue that allowing the free market to operate without interference is the most efficient method of establishing prices have not considered the economies of non-socialist countries other than the United states.These economies employ intentional price-fixing,usually in an overt fashion.Formalprice-fixing by cartel and informal price-fixing by agreements coveringthe members of an industry are common-place.__19__,the countries thathave avoided the first and used the second would have suffereddrastically in their economic development.There is no indication thatthey have.Socialist industry also works within a framework of controlled prices.In the early1970’s,the Soviet Union began to give firms and industriessome of the flexibility in adjusting prices that a more informalevolution has accorded the capitalist system.__20__;rather,Sovietfirms have been given the power to fix prices.A.But each large firm will also act with full consideration of the needsthat it has in common with the other large firms competing for the samecustomersB.Consequently,nothing seems good or normal that does not accord withthe requirements of the free marketC.Economists in the United States have hailed the change as a returnto the free market.But Soviet firms are no more subject to pricesestablished by a free market over which they exercise little influencethan are capitalist firmsD.Accordingly,it requires a major act of will to think of price-fixing(the determination of prices by the seller)as both“normal”andhaving a valuable economic functionE.Were there something peculiarly efficient about the free market andinefficient about price-fixing-o.Part4:Writing.(30P)Write an English essay of250-300words describing Maslow’s hierarchyof human needs and analyze this model with ONE example.Your writingwill be assessed for language,format,structure and content.育明教育考研专业课第一品牌,考研信息可咨询育明教育官网政治【学科概述】不用因为政治纷繁复杂的知识点而担心政治会不过线,只要肯下功夫,60分是很容易达到的。

绩效工资分为广义绩效工资和狭义绩效工资,广义绩效工资又称绩效加薪、奖励工资(Meritpay)或与评估挂钩的工资(Appraisalrelatedpay)。
绩效工资设计的基本原则是通过激励个人提高绩效促进组织的绩效。
即是通过绩效工资传达企业绩效预期的信息,刺激企业中所有的员工来达到它的目的;使企业更关注结果或独具特色的文化与价值观;能促进高绩效员工获得高期望薪酬;保证薪酬因员工绩效而不同意义:1、由于员工的绩效的不同而导致其工资收入的不同的工资制度,是每一年都有的浮动薪酬,但不是永久增加的固定薪酬。
绩效工资不是局限于流水线工人,可以使用于任何公司的任何岗位,包括银行,会计师事务所,律师事务所等等。
2、其目的是找出和奖赏绩效好的员工并且鼓励每一个人都更加努力,以更好的方法去工作。
3、真正的绩效工资是正规化的而不是想到的时候心血来潮给一些奖励。
参加基本养老保险的个人,达到法定退休年龄时累计缴费满15年的,就可以按月领取基本养老金。
也就是说,参加养老保险的职工要领取养老金必须符合两个条件:一是达到法定退休年龄;二是累积缴纳养老保险费满15年。

Cooperativecompetition. Competitive cooperation. Confused? Airline alliances havetravelers scratching their heads over what s going on in the skies. Some folksview alliances as a blessing to travelers, offering seamless travel, reducedfares and enhanced frequent-flyer benefits. Others see a conspiracy of bigbusinesses, causing decreased competition, increased fares and fewerchoices.Whatever your opinion, there's no escaping airline alliances: the marketinghype is unrelenting, with each of the two mega-groupings, One world and StarAlliance, promoting itself as the best choice for all travelers. And, even ifyou turn away from their ads, chances are they will figure in any of yourtravel plans. By the end of the year, One world and Star Alliance will betweenthem control more than 40% of the traffic in the sky. Some pundits predict thatfigure will be more like 75% in 10 years.But why, after years of often ferocious competition, have airlines decidedto band together? Let's just say the timing is mutually convenient. NorthAmerican airlines, having exhausted all means of earning customer loyalty athome, have been looking for ways to reach out to foreign flyers. Asian carriersare still hurting from the region-wide economic downturn that began two yearsago-just when some of the airlines were taking delivery of new aircraft.Alliances also allow carriers to cut costs and increase profits by poolingmanpower resources on the ground (rather than each airline maintaining its own groundcrew)and code-sharing-the practice of two partners selling tickets and operatingonly one aircraft.So alliances are terrific for airlines-but are they good for the passenger?Absolutely, say the airlines: think of the lounges, the joint FFP(frequent flyer program)benefits, theround-the-world fares, and the global service networks. Then there's thepromise of "seamless" travel: the ability to, say, travel fromSingapore to Rome to New York to Rio de Janeiro, all on one ticket, withouthaving to wait hours for connections or worry about your bags. Soundsutopian?Peter Buecking, Cathay Pacific's director of sales and marketing, thinks thatseamless travel is still evolving. "It's fair to say that these links areonly in their infancy. The key to seamlessness rests in infrastructure andinformation sharing. We're working on this." Henry Ma, spokesperson forStar Alliance in Hong Kong, lists some of the other benefits for consumers:"Globaltravelers have an easier time making connections and planningtheir itineraries." Ma claims alliances also assure passengers consistentservice standards.Critics of alliances say the much-touted benefits to the consumer aremostly pie in the sky, that alliances are all about reducing costs for theairlines, rationalizing services and running joint marketing programs. JeffBlyskal, associate editor of Consumer Reports magazine, says the promotionalballyhoo over alliances is much ado about nothing. "I don't see much of again for consumers: alliances are just a marketing gimmick. And as far asseamless travel goes, I'll believe it when I see it. Most airlines can't evenget their own connections under control, let alone coordinate with anotherairline."Blyskal believes alliances will ultimately result in decreased flightchoices and increased costs for consumers. Instead of two airlines competingand each operating a flight on the same route at 70% capacity, the allied pairwill share the route and run one full flight. Since fewer seats will beavailable, passengers will be obliged to pay more for tickets.The truth about alliances and their merits probably lies somewhere betweenthe travel utopia presented by the players and the evil empires portrayed bytheir critics. And how much they affect you depends on what kind of traveleryou are.Those who've already made the elite grade in the FFP of a major airlinestand to benefit the most when it joins an alliance: then they enjoy the FFPperks and advantages on any and all of the member carriers. For example, if youre a Marco Polo Club "gold" member of Cathay Pacific s Asia MilesFFP, you will automatically be treated as a valuable customer by all members ofOne world, of which Cathay Pacific is a member-even if you've never flown withthem before.For those who haven't made the top grade in any FFP, alliances might be away of simplifying the earning of frequent flyer miles. For example, I belongto United Airline's Mileage Plus and generally fly less than 25,000 miles ayear. But I earn miles with every flight I take on Star Alliance member-AllNippon Airways and Thai Airways.If you fly less than I do, you might be smarter to stay out of the FFP gamealtogether. Hunt for bargains when booking flights and you might be able tosave enough to take that extra trip anyway. The only real benefit infrequentflyers can draw from an alliance is aninexpensive round-the-world fare.The bottom line: for all the marketing hype, alliances aren't all things toall people-but everybody can get some benefit out of them.19.

Michele MacNeill's daughters and otherrelatives let out a loud yelpbefore dissolving in tears as the jury deliveredits verdict to the tense, packed courtroom."We're just so happy he can't hurtanyone else," said Alexis Somers, one of his older daughters. "Wemiss our mom; we'll never see her again. But that courtroom was full of so manypeople who loved her." Martin MacNeill, 57, showed littleemotion when the verdict was read. He hugged his lawyer afterward and said,"It's OK."He faces 15 years to life forfirst-degree murder when he is sentenced Jan. 7. He also was found guilty ofobstruction of justice, which could add 1-15 years. MacNeill was led bydeputies back to Utah County jail.Randy Spencer, one of his lawyers, saidhe was disappointed before declining further comment.The chief prosecutor, Chad Grunander,said the largely circumstantial case was the most difficult he ever brought totrial and that many prosecutors wouldn't bother trying, especially with medicalexaminers unable to produce a finding of homicide."It was an almost perfectmurder," Grunander said in his closing argument, asserting MacNeill"pumped her full of drugs" that he knew would be difficult to detectonce she was dead.An early mistress of MacNeill's testifiedhe once confided he could induce a heart attack insomeone that would appear natural.After deliberating for 11 hours, the juryissued its guilty verdict to murder and obstruction of justice shortly after 1a.m. Saturday.The case shocked the Mormon community ofPleasant Grove, 35 miles south of Salt Lake City, and captured nationalattention because the defendant was a wealthy doctor and a lawyer, a father ofeight in a picture-perfect family and former bishop in his local congregationof The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.Defense lawyers contend Michele MacNeilldied of natural causes. They believe she had a heart attack and fell headfirstinto the tub and noted the autopsy showed she had an enlarged heart, anarrowing of the heart arteries and liver and kidney deterioration."There's simply no proof" ofhomicide, Spencer said. "The prosecution has presented to you theircherry-picked portion of the evidence."He called the testimony of a handful of prisoninmates anglingforearly release doubtful. The men who spent time behind bars with the doctortestified he had acknowledged killing his wife - or suggested thatinvestigators could never prove he did it.Their testimony was the only directevidence of murder, Grunander said. MacNeill lawyers argued he would neveradmit murder to strangers in prison.MacNeill was medical director of the UtahState Development Center, a residential center for people with cognitivedisorders, whomoonlighted in other medical jobs, once consulting for a laserhair removal clinic. He had a law degree but wasn't known to practice law andhas since surrendered his law and medical licenses.The highlight of the three-week trial wasa mistress who MacNeill introduced as a nanny within weeks of hiswife's death. His older daughters quickly recognized Gypsy Willis as his secretlover and said her mother had been arguing with her husband over the affair.The daughters went to work uncoveringwhat they call their father's secret life. They abandoned him while doggingauthorities to open a murder investigation. It wasn't until MacNeill's releasein July 2012 from a federal prison in Texas on charges of fraud that Utahprosecutors moved to file charges of murder and obstruction of justice.Willis also served a federal sentence forusing the identity of one of MacNeill's adopted daughters to escape adebt-heavy history. That daughter had been sent back to Ukraine, supposedlyonly for a summer. For a time, MacNeill's only familydefender was his only son. Damian, a 24-year-old law student, committed suicidein January 2010, according to his sisters, who have said he was haunted bytheir mother's death.Prosecutors said MacNeill might havegotten away with a perfect murder, but his erratic behavior the day of hiswife's death and shortly afterward was "dripping with motive."They reminded jurors about testimony thatMacNeill stood in the bathroom yelling what prosecutors called phony grief,"Why did you do this? All because of a stupid surgery," as paramedicstried to revive his wife.Family testimony suggested it wasMacNeill who insisted his 50-year-old wife, a former local beauty queen in herCalifornia hometown, get the surgery. Prosecutors said he used it as an excuseto mix painkillers, Valium and sleeping pills for her supposed recovery.第一问是paraphrase”bringing an end to a trial that became thenation's latest true-crime cable TVobsession”第二问是Whatdid “whomoonlighted in other medical jobs, once consulting for a laser hair removalclinic”imply ?三、作文:curb the use of cars,即你对车辆限行的看法,要拟标题,400词。

贸大翻硕--2015年对外经济贸易大学翻译硕士日语口译考研真题汇总(集训营辅导)各位考研的同学们,大家好!我是才思的一名学员,现在已经顺利的考上对外经济贸易大学翻译硕士,今天和大家分享一下这个专业的真题,方便大家准备考研,希望给大家一定的帮助。
百科知识部分中期近代哲学17~18世纪末这个时期,资本主义进一步发展,自然科学出现了分门别类的研究,现实世界成了可以由人类把握的对象,哲学的兴趣集中在主体与客体的关系,思维与存在的统一等问题上。
真正的近代哲学从这里开始。
自“文艺复兴”和宗教改革以后,近代自然科学日益脱离神学而繁荣昌盛。
1600年前后的100年左右,出现了N.哥白尼、J.开普勒、G.伽利略等许多科学上的伟人,17世纪是近代自然科学取得辉煌成就的世纪。
这时,科学的标准是自然本身;科学的方法是以观察和实验为基础的归纳法和数学的演绎法。
这种情况一直延续到18世纪下半叶启蒙运动(17-18C)。
近代科学的方法肇端于伽利略,他同时也为近代哲学提供了研究方法。
伽利略的方法是,以观察和实验为基础,进行归纳和数学的演绎。
同时,很重视归纳法,伽利略则将归纳法与演绎法同时并举。
归纳法与数学演绎法的分歧,在哲学认识论上表现为经验论与唯理论之争。
经验论的代表人物是培根、T.霍布斯、J.洛克、G.巴克莱和 D.休谟,唯理论的代表人物是R.笛卡尔、B.斯宾诺莎、G.W.莱布尼茨和C.沃尔夫。
培根是近代唯物主义经验论的第一个代表,他把经验当作统一思维与存在的关键,在近代哲学史上第一个提出思维的主体“人”应该主动干扰自然,使之服务于人类。
他的“二重真理”说,打击了神学。
弗朗西斯·培根(Francis Bacon,1561年1月22日-1626年4月9日)英国近代唯物主义哲学家、思想家和科学家,被马克思称为“英国唯物主义和整个现代实验科学的真正始祖”。
他是新贵族的思想代表,反对君主权神授和君权无限,主张限制王权;拥护清教主张改革,但反对革命。
大学翻译硕士MTI历年考研真题-2013外交学院翻译硕士MTI考研真题(回忆版)(1)
2013外交学院翻译硕士MTI考研试题(回忆版)政治就不多说了,说说外交的三门:英语基础,英语翻译和百科吧。
英语基础:20道选择题,一篇改错10分,5篇阅读30分,一篇问答10分,作文30分。
个人感觉比较有难度的是20道选择题,其他的话按英语八级的标准来复习。
PS:没看过2笔的书,看到网上有人说选择题是2笔的水平。
英语翻译:词汇互译无力吐槽,英汉个人感觉挺难的有ADB,EAEA,Amex,还有Affirmative Action ,absent without leave,还有几个记不清了,么借壳上市啊或政治类的重复建设。
篇章翻译的话有一定难度,英汉是关于美国佬deny climate change 的一篇文章,比较地道,里面有些单词要靠猜的。
汉英的话是说中国出了一本书《中国人可以说不》引起了很大反响,美国人怀疑其作者的意图,文章讽刺了美国人推行的所谓的言论自由。
这两篇都有一点难度,而且汉英的接近600字,时间挺紧的。
字写的也挺丑,没底。
百科:考了歼十五,罗阳,辽宁舰,莎士比亚,英伦三岛,歌德,林纾,朱生豪,田汉,曹禺,阴历,阳历,阴阳历,东盟峰会,金边,东盟宪章,欧债危机,两个百年,两个翻一番。
应用文写作题目就满满两面纸了,奇葩!!!是一个场景的对话,几个人在谈有关商务上的事,涉及到各方的基本意见,然后就其中一个人的基本意见向另外一个人写封商务信函,其实那个基本意见就那两三句话,完全是要靠自己各种编,发挥无限想象力。
作文题目是译事的不宜,给了一段材料说译者不能死忠原文,要提升自身功底,不能喧宾夺主,扯了好长一段话,然后让你根据受到的启发,写800字。
扯了好多,超过八百字了。
再详细补充一下:选择题几乎全是考词汇的,(考前买了那个考研手册和真题,有10,11年10多间高校的真题,但选择题的话外交今年算是挺那个的了)就连为数不多的一两道考which ,that 句子也是两三行那么长,绝对木有那么简单。

三、汉语写作与百科知识
百科单选题今天增加到道题,前半部分考察地还是中国文学文学部分,古代和现代并重.中间几道考察世界地理,后面主要考察西方文学和西方文化,文学部分不仅仅限于纯文学,还包括社会经济题材地文学作品.另外,今年比较大地一个变化是不考名词解释.lzq7I。
写作题和前两年相比,没有太大差异,题源是公布地,考察,三者之间地关系,写作地框架可以按照雅思图表作文来写,但是内容需要自己丰富,建议大家平时多看看这类经济报告,了解经济常识,培养经济素养.GMsIa。
二、翻译基础
翻译基础今年题型大变,很多同学没看清题目就作答,吃了大亏.英汉短语互译部分去掉了缩略词翻译,而是个英译汉,挑选其中个,并用中文简要解释这五个短语,个汉译英,也是选取其中个,用英语简要解释一下.这部分将英汉短语互译同名词解释相结合,更加注重考察经济常识,准备这部分内容,不能再看财经类地英汉短语翻译,还需要了解其实在意思,红宝书上归纳了基本地常识,大家可以参照学习.TIrRG。

(40 P)Passage AOn New Year’s Day, 50,000 inmates in Kenyan jails went without lunch. This was not some mass hunger strike to highlight poor living conditions. It was an extraordinary humanitarian gesture: the money that would have been spent on their lunches went to the charity Food Aid to help feed an estimated 3. 5 million Kenyans who, because of a severe drought, are threatened with starvation. The drought is big news in Africa, affecting huge areas of east Africa and the Horn. If you are reading this in the west, however, you may not be aware of it—the media is not interested in old stories. Even if you do know about the drought, you may not be aware that it is devastating one group of people disproportionately: the pastoralists. There are 20 million nomadic or semi-nomadic herders in this region, and they are fast becoming some of the poorest people in the continent. Their plight encapsulates Africa’s perennial problem with drought and famine.How so? It comes down to the reluctance of governments, aid agencies and foreign lenders to support the herders’ traditional way of life. Instead they have tended to try to turn them into commercial ranchers or agriculturalists, even though it has been demonstrated time and again that pastoralists are well adapted to their harsh environments, and that moving livestock according to the seasons or climatic changes makes their methods far more viable than agriculture in sub-Saharan drylands.Furthermore, African pastoralist systems are often more productive, in terms of protein and cash per hectare, than Australian, American and other African ranches in similar climatic conditions. They make a substantial contribution to their countries’ national economies. In Kenya, for example, the turnover of the pastoralist sector is worth $800 million per year. In countries such as Burkina Faso, Eritrea and Ethiopia, hides from pastoralists’ herds make up over 10 per cent of export earnings. Despite this productivity, pastoralists still starve and their animals perish when drought hits. One reason is that only a trickle of the profits goes to the herders themselves; thelion’s share is pocketed by traders. This is partly because the herders only sell much of their stock during times of drought and famine, when they need the cash to buy food, and the terms of trade in this situation never work in their favour. Another reason is the lack of investment in herding areas.Funding bodies such as the World Bank and-USAID tried to address some of the problems in the 1960s, investing millions o f dollars in commercial beef and dairy production. It didn’t work. Firstly, no one bothered to consult the pastoralists about what they wanted. Secondly, rearing livestock took precedence over human progress. The policies and strategies of international development agencies more or less mirrored the thinking of their colonial predecessors. They were based on two false assumptions: that pastoralism is primitive and inefficient, which led to numerous failed schemes aimed at converting herders to modern ranching models; and that Africa’s drylands can support commercial ranching. They cannot. Most of Africa’s herders live in areas with unpredictable weather systems that are totally unsuited to commercial ranching.What the pastoralists need is support for their traditional lifestyle. Over the past few years, funders and policy-makers have been starting to get the message. One example is intervention by governments to ensure that pastoralists get fair prices for their cattle when they sell them in times of drought, so that they can afford to buy fodder for their remaining livestock and cereals to keep themselves and their families alive(the problem in African famines is not so much a lack of food as a lack of money to buy it). Another example is a drought early-warning system run by the Kenyan government and the World Bank that has helped avert livestock deaths.This is all promising, but more needs to be done. Some African governments still favour forcing pastoralists to settle. They should heed the latest scientific research demonstrating the productivity of traditional cattle-herding. Ultimately, sustainable rural development in pastoralist areas will depend on increasing trade, so one thing going for them is the growing demand for livestock products: there will likely be an additional 2 billion consumers worldwide by 2020, the vast majority in developing countries. To ensure that pastoralists benefit, it will be crucial to give them a greater say in local policies. Other key tasks include giving a greater say to women, who play critical roles in livestock production. The rich world should pay proper attention to the plight of the pastoralists. Leaving them dependent on foreign food aid is unsustainable and will lead to more resentment, conflict, environmental degradation and malnutrition. It is in the rich world’s interests to help out.01. Which of the following CANNOT be concluded from the passage?A. Forcing Africa’s nomadic herders to become ranchers will save them from drought.B. The difference between pastoralist and agriculturalist is vital to the African people.C. The rich world should give more support to the African people to overcome drought.D. Environmental degradation should be the major concern in developing Africa’s pastoralism.02. The word “encapsulates”in the sentence “Their plight encapsulates Africa’s perennial problem with drought and famine.”(para. l)can be replaced by ____.A. concludes.B. involves.C. represents.D. aggravates.03. What is the author’s attitude toward African drought and traditional lifestyle of pastoralism?A. Neutral and indifferent.B. Sympathetic and understanding.C. Critical and vehement.D. Subjective and fatalistic.04. When the author writes “the policies and strategies of international development agencies more or less mirrored the thinking of their colonial predecessors.”(para. 4), he implies all the following EXCEPT that the aid agencies did not ____.A. have an objective view of the situation in AfricaB. understand the unpredictable weather systems thereC. feel themselves superior in decision makingD. care about the development of the local people05. The author’s main purpose in writing this article is ____.A. to evaluate the living conditions of Kenyan pastoralistsB. to give suggestions on the support of the traditional pastoralism in AfricaC. to illustrate the difference between commercial ranching and pastoralismD. to criticize the colonial thinking of western aid agenciesPassage BCivil-Liberties advocates reeling from the recent revelations on surveillance had something else to worry about last week: the privacy of the billions of search queries made on sites like Google, AOL, Yahoo and Microsoft. As part of a long-running court case, the government has asked those companies to turn over information on its users’search behavior. All but Google have handed over data, and now the Department of Justice(DOJ)has moved to compel the search giant to turn over the goods.What makes this case different is that the intended use of the information is not related to national security, but the government’s continuing attempt to police Internet pornography. In 1998, Congress passed the Child Online Protection Act(COPA), but courts have blocked its implementation due to First Amendment concerns. In its appeal, the DOJ wants to prove how easy it is to inadvertently stumble upon pore. In order to conduct a controlled experiment—to be performed by a UC Berkeley professor of statistics—the DOJ wants to use a large sample of actual search terms from the different search engines. It would then use those terms to do its own searches, employing the different kinds of filters each search engine offers, in an attempt to quantify how often “material that is harmful to minors” might appear. Google contends that since it is not a party to the case, the government has not right to demand its proprietary information to perform its test. “We intend to resist their motion vigorously,” said Google attorney Nicole Wong. DOJ spokesperson Charles Miller says that the government is requesting only the actual search terms, and not anything that would link the queries to those who made them. (The DOJ is also demanding a list of a million Web sites that Google indexes to determine the degree to which objectionable sites are searched. )Originally, the government asked for a treasure trove of all searches made in June and July 2005; the request has been scaled back to one week’s worth ofsearch queries.One oddity about the DOJ’s strategy is that the experiment could conceivably sink its own case. If the built-in filters that each search engine provides are effective in blocking porn sites, the government will have wound up proving what the opposition has said all along—you don’t need to suppress speech to protect minors on the Net. “We think that our filtering technology does a good job protecting minors from inadvertently seeing adult content,”says Ramez Naam, group program manager of MSN Search.Though the government intends to use these data specifically for its COPA-related test, it’s possible that the information could lead to further investigations and, perhaps, subpoenas to find out who was doing the searching. “What if certain search terms indicated that people were contemplating terrorist actions or other criminal activities?” Says the DOJ’s Miller, “I’m assuming that if something raised alarms, we would hand it over to the proper autho rities.” Privacy advocates fear that if the government request is upheld, it will open the door to further government examination of search behavior. One solution would be for Google to stop storing the information, but the company hopes to eventually use the personal information of consenting customers to improve search performance. “Search is a window into people’s personalities,” says Kurt Opsahl, an Electronic Frontier Foundation attorney. “They should be able to take advantage of the Internet without w orrying about Big Brother looking over their shoulders.”01. When the American government asked Google, AOL, Yahoo and Microsoft to turn over information on its users’ search behavior, the major intention is ____.A. to protect national securityB. to help protect personal freedomC. to monitor Internet pornographyD. to implement the Child Online Protection Act02. Google refused to turn over “its proprietary information”(para. 2)required by DOJ as it believes that ____.A. it is not involved in the court caseB. users’ privacy is most importantC. the government has violated the First AmendmentD. search terms is the company’s business secret03. The phrase “scaled back to”in the sentence “the request has been scaled back to one week’s worth of search queries”(para. 3)can be replaced by ____.A. maximized toB. minimized toC. returned toD. reduced to04. In the sentence “One oddity about the DOJ’s strategy is that the experiment could conceivably sink its own case.”(para. 4), the expression “sink its own case”most probably means that ____.A. counterattack the oppositionB. lead to blocking of porn sitesC. provide evidence to disprove the caseD. give full ground to support the case05. When Kurt Opsahl says that “They should be able to take advantage of the Internet without worrying about Big Brother looking over their shoulders.”(para. 5), the expression “Big Brother”is used to refer to ____.A. a friend or relative showing much concernB. a colleague who is much more experiencedC. a dominating and all-powerful ruling powerD. a benevolent and democratic organizationPart 3: Answering Questions. (20 P)Passage AMillions of elderly Germans received a notice from the Health & Social Security Ministry earlier this month that struck a damaging blow to the welfare state. The statement informed them that their pensions were being cut. The reductions come as a stop-gap measure to control Germany’s ballooning pension crisis. Not surprisingly, it was an unwelcome change for senior citizens such as Sabine Wetzel, a 67-year-old retired bank teller, who was told her state pension would be cut by $12. 30, or 1% to $1,156. 20 a month. “It was a real shock,” she says. “My pension had always gone up in the past.”There’s more bad news on the way. On Mar. 11, Germany’s lower house of Parliament passed a bill gradually cutting state pensions—which have been rising steadily since World War II—from 53% of average wages now to 46% by 2020. And Germany is not alone. Governments across Western Europe are racing to curb pension benefits. In Italy, the government plans to raise the minimum retirement age from 57 to 60, while France will require that civil servants put in 40 years rather than 37. 5 to qualify for a full pension. The reforms are coming despite tough opposition from unions, leftist politicians, and pensioners’ groups.The explanation is simple: Europeans are living longer and having fewer children. By 2030 there will only be two workers per pensioner, compared with four in 2000. With fewer young workers paying into the system, cuts are being made to cover a growing shortfall. The gap between money coming in and payments going out could top $10 billion this year in Ger many alone. “In the future, a state pension alone will no longer be enough to maintain the living standards employees had before they retired,” says German Health & Social Security Minister Ulla Schmidt. Says Italian Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti: “The welfare state is producing too few cradles and too few graves.”Of course, those population trends have been forecast for years. Some countries, such as Britain and the Netherlands, have responded by making individuals and their employers assume more of the responsibility for pensions. But many Continental governments dragged their feet. Now, the rapid runup in costs is finally forcing them to act. State-funded pension payments make up around 12% of gross domestic product in Germany and France and 15% in Italy—two percentage points more than 20 years ago. Pensions account for an average 21% of government spending across the European Union. The U. S. Social Security system, by contrast, consumes just 4.8% of GDP. Therising cost is having serious repercussio ns on key European nations’ commitments to fiscal restraint. “Governments have no choice but to make pension reform a priority,” says Antonio Cabral, deputy director of the European Commission’s Directorate General for Economic & Financial Affairs.Just as worrisome is the toll being exacted on the private sector, corporate contributions to state pension systems—which make up 19. 5% of total gross pay in Germany—add to Europe’s already bloated labor costs. That, in turn, blunts manufacturers’ competitivene ss and keeps unemployment rates high. According to the Institute of German Economics in Cologne, benefit costs reached a record 41. 7% of gross wages in Germany last year, compared with 37.4% a decade before. French cement manufacturer Lafarge says pension cost of $121 million contributed to a 9% fall in operating profits last year.To cope, Germany and most of its EU partners are using tax breaks to encourage employees to put money into private pension schemes. But even if private pensions become more popular, European governments will have to increase minimum retirement ages and reduce public pensions. While today’s seniors complain about reduced benefits, the next generation of retirees may look back on their parents’ pension checks with envy.QuestionsParaphrase Italian Finance Minister Giulio Tremonti’s statement “The welfare state is producing too few cradles and too few graves”? What is implied by the last sentence of the passage “While today’s seniors complain about reduced benefits, the next gene ration of retirees may look back on their parents’ pension checks with envy”?Passage BIn the old days, it was all done with cakes. For Marcel Proust, it was a visit to Mother’s for tea and madeleines that provided the access to “the vast structure of recollection” that was to become his masterpiece on memory and nostalgia, “Remembrance of Past Things.” These days, it’s not necessary to evoke the past: you can’t move without tripping over it.In an age zooming forward technologically, why are all the backward glances? The Oxford English Dictionary’s first definition of nostalgia reads: “acute longing for familiar surroundings; severe homesickness.” With the speed of computers doubling every 18 months, and the net doubling in size in about half that, no w onder we’re aching for familiar surroundings. Since the cornerstone of the Information Age is change, anything enduring becomes precious. “People are looking for something authentic,” says McLaren. Trouble is, nostalgia has succumbed to trends in marketing, demographics and technology. “Nostalgia ain’t what it used to be,” says Michael J. Wolf, senior partner at Booz-Allen & Hamilton in New York. “These are the new good old days.” Baby boomers form the core of the nostalgia market. The boomers, defined by American demographers as those born between 1946 and 1964, are living long and prosperous lives. In both Europe and America, they remain the Holy Grail for admen, and their past has become everyone’s present. In a study on “entertainment imprinting,” two A merican marketing professors, Robert Schindler and Morris Holbrook, asked people ranging in age from 16 to 86 which popular music from the past they liked best. People’s favorite songs, they found, tended to be those that were popular when they were about 24, with their affection for pop songs diminishing on either side of that age. Doubtless Microsoft knows about entertainment imprinting, or at least nostalgia. Thecompany hawks its latest Explorer to the strains of Simon and Garfunkel’s “Homeward Bound,” just as it launched Windows 98 to the tune of “Start Me up” by the Rolling Stones. Boomers remember both tunes from their 20s.If boomers are one market that values memories, exiles are another. According to the International Organization of Migration, more than 150 million people live today in a country other than the one where they were born—double the number that did so in 1965. This mass movement has sources as dire as tyranny and as luxurious as the freedoms of an EU passport. But exiles and refugees share one thing: homes left behind. Type in “nostalgia” on the search engine Google, and one of the first sites that pop up is the nostalgia page of The Iranian, an online site for Iran’s exiles, most of whom fled after 1978’s Islamic revolution. Perhaps t he savviest exploitation of nostalgia has been the secondhand-book site alibris. com, which features stories of clients’ rediscovering long-lost books on it. One John Mason Mings writes of the glories of finding a book with information on “Kickapoo Joy Juice,” ad dreaded medicine of his youth. A Pennsylvanian waxes over alibris’s recovery of his first-grade primer” Down cherry Street.” The Net doesn’t merely facilitate nostalgia—it promotes it. Web-based auction houses have helped jump-start markets for vintage items, form marbles to Apple Macintoshes.Cutting-edge technology, designed to be transient, has even bred its own instanostalgia. Last year a $666 Apple I went for $18,000 to a British collector at a San Francisco auction. “Historic! Microsoft Multi plan for Macintosh” crows one item on eBay’s vintage Apple section. Surf to The Net Nostalgia Quiz to puzzle over questions like “In the old days, Altavista used to have which one of these URLs?”Those who don’t remember their history are condemned to rep eat it. Or so entertainment moguls hope, as they market “70s TV hits like “Charlie’s Angels” and “Scooby Doo,” out next year, to a generation that can’t remember them the first time round. If you’ve missed a Puff Daddy track or a “Sopranos” episode, panic not. The megahits of today are destined to be the golden oldies of 2020, says Christopher Nurko of the branding consultant FutureBrand. “I guarantee you, Madonna’s music will be used to sell everything,” he says. “God help me, I hope it’s not selling insurance.” It could be. When we traffic in the past, nothing’s sacred.QuestionsExplain the beginning sentence “In the old days, it was all done with cakes.” What is the other big group besides baby boomers which values memories? What do these people share? What is “nostalgia market”? What do they sell in the nostalgia market?Part 4: Writing. (30 P)Please reflect on the following opinion and write an essay of about 400 words elaborating your view with a well-defined title.Some people believe the key of the reform in the education system is a well-shared awareness that educations is there, instead of simply offering the knowledge important to the students, to improve the students in an all-round way, and especially to guide them to a careful pondering over such fundamental issues as life itself and social responsibility. An undue emphasis on knowledge-education and the resultant ignorance over the guidance to the students to a proper understanding of life will bring us nothing but a large number of “memorizing machines”. We can never expect a group of young people well prepared for the real social life.。

Microsoft is the latest to make headlines with a tale of woe, in the form of a $140m tax fee paid to Chinese authorities. (Microsoft prefers to call it a $140m “bilateral advanced pricing agreement”). This comes on top of an antitrust investigation launched in July and this week’s news that one of China’s largest companies is switching its email service away from Microsoft.12. Due to rampant piracy, Microsoft’s revenues in China have never been very big (about the same size as revenues in the Netherlands). Microsoft’s overall revenues rose 25 per cent last quarter, year on year, despite the “more challenging environment”reported in China and Russia.13. Cisco’s sales in China have halved during the past two years, driven by a backlash after the Snowden revelations and by the increasing capabilities of Chinese equipment manufacturers like Huawei. IBM’s China revenues are falling too, the company disclosed last quarter –on top of a 22 per cent year-on-year drop in the comparable quarter last year. IBM said a tough hardware market was to blame. The company will exit part of that business with the sale of its x86 server business to Lenovo, a deal that closed in October.Then there’s Qualcomm, which partners with Chinese manufacturers who produce its chips; the company says one-fifth of its licensed 3G/4G devices are going unreported (which means no licence fees). The company is having trouble resolving these disputes because it is simultaneously the subject of a Chinese antitrust investigation.14.
