北京外国语大学考研基础英语真题2009年(总分：150.00，做题时间：90分钟)ⅠAThe Perils of EfficiencyThis spring, disaster loomed in the global food market. Precipitous increases in the prices of staples like rice (up more than a hundred and fifty percent in a few months) and maize provoked food riots, toppled governments, and threatened the lives of tens of millions. But the bursting of the commodity bubble eased those pressures, and food prices, while still high, have come well off the astronomical levels they hit in April. For American, the drop in commodity prices has put a few more bucks in people"s pockets; in much of the developing world, it may have saved many from actually starving. So did the global financial crisis solve the global food crisis? Temporarily, perhaps. But the recent price drop doesn"t provide any long-term respite from the threat food shortages or future price spikes. Nor has it reassured anyone about the health of the global agricultural system, which the crisis revealed as dangerously unstable. Four decades after the Green Revolution, and after waves of market reforms intended to transform agricultural production, we"re still having a hard time insuring that people simply get enough to eat, and we seen to be vulnerable to supply shocks than ever.It wasn"t supposed to be this way. Over the past two decades, countries around the world have moved away from their focus on "food security" and handed market forces a greater role in shaping agricultural policy. Before the nineteen-eighties, developing countries had so-called "agricultural marketing boards", which would buy commodities from farmers at fixed prices (prices high enough to keep farmers farming), and then store them in strategic reserves that could be used in the event of bad harvests or soaring import prices. But in the eighties and nineties, often as part of structural-adjustment programs imposed by the I.M.F. or the World Bank, many marketing boards were eliminated or cut back, and grain reserves, deemed inefficient and unnecessary, were sold off. In the same way, structural-adjustment programs often did away with government investment in and subsidies to agriculture—most notably, subsidies for things like fertilizers and high-yield seeds.The logic behind these reforms was simple: the market would allocate resources more efficiently than government, leading to greater productivity. Farmers, instead of growing subsidized maize and wheat at high cost, could concentrate on cash crops, like cashews and chocolate, and use the money they made to buy staple foods. If a country couldn"t compete in the global economy, production would migrate to countries that could. It was also assumed that, once governments stepped out of the way, private investment would flood into agriculture, boosting performance. And international aid seemed a more efficient way of relieving food crises than relying on countries to maintain surpluses and food- security programs, which are wasteful and costly.This "marketization" of agriculture has not, to be sure, been fully carried through. Subsidies are still endemic in rich countries and poor, while developing countries often place tariffs on imported food, which benefit their farmers but drive up prices for consumers. And in extreme circumstance countries restrict exports, hoarding food for their own citizens. Nonetheless, we clearly have a leaner, more market-friendly agriculture system than before. It looks, in fact, a bit like global manufacturing, with low inventories (wheat stocks are at their lowest since 1977), concentrated production (three countries provide ninety percent of corn exports, and five countries provide eighty percent of rice exports,) and fewer redundancies. Governments have amuch smaller role, and public spending on agriculture has been cut sharply.The problem is that, while this system is undeniably more efficient, it"s also much more fragile. Bad weather in just a few countries can wreak havoc across the entire system. When prices spike as they did this spring, the result is food shortages and malnutrition in poorer countries, since they are far more dependent on imports and have few food reserves to draw on. And, while higher prices and market reforms were supposed to bring a boom in agricultural productivity, global crop yields actually rose less between 1990 and 2007 than they did in the previous twenty years, in part because in many developing countries private-sector agricultural investment never materialized, while the cutbacks in government spending left them with feeble infrastructures. These changes did not cause the rising prices of the past couple of years, but they have made them more damaging. The old emphasis on food security was undoubtedly costly, and often wasteful. But the redundancies it created also had tremendous value when things went wrong. And one sure thing about a system as complex as agriculture is that things will go wrong, often with devastating consequences. If the just-in-time system for producing cars runs into a hitch and the supply of cars shrinks for a while, people can easily adapt. When the same happens with food, people go hungry or even starve. That doesn"t mean that we need to embrace price controls or collective farms, and there are sensible market reforms, like doing away with import tariffs, that would make developing-country consumers better off. But a few weeks ago Bill Clinton, no enemy of market reform, got it right when he said that we should help countries achieve "maximum agricultural self-sufficiency". Instead of a more efficient system. We should be trying to build a more reliable one.（分数：18.00）(1).What can be learned from the first paragraph?（分数：3.00）A.Global financial crisis destabilized governments.B.Food riots resulted from skyrocketing food bills.C.Financial crisis worsened food crisis.D.Food prices surged by 150% in April.(2).The food crisis revealed the global agricultural system as ______.（分数：3.00）A.fragileB.unresponsiveC.costlyD.unbearable(3).According to the third paragraph, structural-adjustment programs ______.（分数：3.00）A.were designed to cope with poor harvestsB.were introduced as part of "market forces" policiesC.removed price controls and state subsidiesD.encouraged countries to focus on food security(4).The marketization of agriculture probably means ______.（分数：3.00）A.private investment floods into agricultureB.market forces provide efficiency to agricultureC.agricultural policy works with the free market systemD.agricultural production is free from government intervention(5).Which of the following is NOT a feature of the existing agricultural system?（分数：3.00）A.Reduced government spending.B.Concentrated production.C.Self-sufficiency.D.Low wheat stocks.(6).In the last paragraph, the underlined words "the redundancies" probably refer to ______.（分数：3.00）A.high-yield seedsB.grain reservesC.cash cropsD.corn importsMinding the Inequality GapDuring the first 70 years of the 20th century, inequality declined and Americans prospered together. Over the last 30 years, by contrast, the United States developed the most unequal distribution of income and wages of any high-income country.Some analysts see the gulf between the rich and the rest as an incentive for strivers, or as just the way things are. Others see it as having a corrosive effect on people"s faith in the markets and democracy. Still others contend that economic polarization is a root cause of America"s political polarization. Could, and should, something be done?Claudia Goldin and Lawrence F. Katz, two Harvard economists, think yes. Their book, The Race Between Education and Technology (Harvard, $39.95), contain many tables, a few equations and a powerfully told story about how and why the United States became the world"s richest nation — namely, thanks to its schools.The authors skillfully demonstrate that for more than a century, and at a steady rate, technological breakthroughs—the mass production system, electricity, computers—have been increasing the demand for ever more educated workers. And, they show, America"s school system met this demand, not with a national policy, but in grassroots fashion, as communities taxed themselves and built schools and colleges.Beginning in the 1970s, however, the education system failed to keep pace, resulting, Ms. Goldin and Mr. Katz contend, in a sharply unequal nation.The authors allow that a decline in union membership and in the inflation-adjusted minimum wage also contributed to the shift in who partook of a growing pie. But they rule the usual suspects — globalization (trade) and high immigration—as significant causes of rising inequality. Amid the current calls to restrict executive compensation, their policy prescription is to have more Americans graduate from college.If only it were that easy.The authors" argument is really two books in one. One offers an incisive history of American education, especially the spread of the public high School and the state university system. It proves to be an uplifting tale of public commitment and open access. The authors remind us that the United States long remained "the best poor man"s country". A place where talent could rise. The other story rigorously measures the impact of education on income. The authors" compilation of hard data on educational attainment according to when people were born is an awesome achievement, though not always a gripping read.They show that by the 1850s, America"s school enrollment rate already "exceeded that of any other nation". And this lead held for a long time. By 1960, some 70 percent of Americans graduated from high school—far above the rate in any other country. College graduation rates also rose appreciably.In the marketplace, such educational attainment was extremely valuable, but it didn"t produce wide economic disparity so long as more people were coming to the job market with education. The wage premium—or differential paid to people with a high school or a college education—fell between 1915 and 1950.But more recently, high school graduation rates flatlined at around 70 percent. American college attendance roses, though college graduation rates languished. The upshot is that while the average college graduates in 1970 earned 45 percent more than high school graduates, the differential three decades later exceeds 80 percent."In the first half of the century," the authors summarize, "education raced ahead of technology,but later in the century technology raced ahead of educational gains."Proving that the demand for and supply of educated workers began not in the time of Bill Gates but in the era of Thomas Edison is virtuoso social science. But wasn"t a slowdown in rising educational attainment unavoidable? After all, it"s one thing to increase the average years of schooling by leaps and bounds when most people start near zero, but quite another when national average is already high.The authors reject the idea that the United States has reached some natural limit in educational advances. Other countries are now at higher levels.What, then, is holding American youth back?The authors give a two-part answer. For one thing, the financial aid system is a maze. More important, many people with high school diplomas are not ready for college.The second problem, the authors write, is concentrated mostly in inner-city schools. Because the poor cannot easily move to better school districts, the authors allow that charter schools as well as vouchers, including those for private school, could be helpful, but more evaluation is necessary.Data on the effects of preschool are plentiful, and point to large returns on investment, so the authors join the chorus in extolling Head Start, the federal government"s largest preschool program.Providing more children with a crucial start, along with easier ways to find financial aid, are laudable national objectives. One suspects, though, that the obstacles to getting more young people into and through college have to do with knotty social and cultural issues.But assume that the author"s policies would raise the national college graduation rate. Would that deeply reduce inequality?Averages can be deceptive. Most of the gains of the recent flush decades have not gone to the college-educated as a whole. The top 10 or 20 percent by income have education levels roughly equivalent to those in the top 1 percent, but the latter account for much of the boom in inequality. This appears to be related to the way taxed have been cut, and to the ballooning of the financial industry"s share of corporate profits.It remains to be seen how a reconfigured financial industry and possible new tax policies might affect the 30-year trend toward greater inequality.In the meantime, it is nice to be reminded, in a data-rich book, that greater investments in human capital once put Americans collectively on top of the world.（分数：18.00）(1).when can be learned from the book entitled The Race Between Education and Technology ?（分数：3.00）A.The wage movements in the U.S. are dominated by swings in the demand for education-related skills.B.The American educational system is what made American the richest nation in the world.C.Technology raced ahead of education in the first half of the 20th century.D.American high school graduation rates leveled off at 80 percent in 1970.(2).Which of the following is considered a significant cause of rising inequality according to Claudia Goldin and Lawrence F.

On the title page of his novel The Sun Also Rises, published in 1926, he quoted her saying to her circle of creatively disaffected writers, artists and intellectuals in the aftermath of World War I, "You are all a lost generation."In the cultural nomenclature after that, the noun generation was applied to those "coming of age" in an era. Anne Soukhanov, U.S. editor of the excellent Encarta dictionary, observes, "Young people"s attitudes, behavior and contributions, while being shaped by the ethos of, and major events during, their time, came in turn to represent the tenor of the time."Taking that complex sense of generation as insightful, we can focus on its modifier as the decisive word in the phrases built upon it. The group after the lost generation did not find its adjective until long after its youthful members turned gray. Belatedly given a title in a 1998 book by Tom Brokaw, the Greatest Generation (which had previously been called the G.I. Generation) defined "those American men and women who came of age in the Great Depression, served at home and abroad during World War Ⅱ and then built the nation we have today."That period, remembered as one characterized by gallantry and sacrifice, was followed by another time that was described in a sharply critical sobriquet: in 1951, people in their 20s were put down as the Silent Generation. That adjective was chosen, according to Neil Howe, author of the 1991 book Generations, because of "how quiescent they were during the McCarthy era.., they were famously risk-averse." The historian William Manchester castigated the tenor of youth in that era as "withdrawn, cautious, unimaginative, indifferent, unadventurous and silent." Overlapping that pejorative label time was the Beat Generation, so named by the writer Jack Kerouac in the "50s. Though the author later claimed his word was rooted in religious Beatitudes, it was described by a Times writer as "more than mere weariness, it implies the feeling of having been used, of being raw.., a sort of nakedness of mind."Now we"re up to the "70s, dubbed by Tom Wolfe in New York magazine in 1976 as the "me decade". That coinage led to the general castigation of young adults by their elders in that indulgent era as the Me Generation, preoccupied with material gain and "obsessed with self". It was notso silent, far from beat, but still, in its own grasping way, a generation lost.Then came the title denoting mystery of the demographically huge generation born from roughly 1946 to 1964—begun as the Baby-Boom Generation, but in its later years its younger members took on a separate identity: Generation X. That is the title of a 1991 book by Douglas Coupland; "It is an identity-hiding label," the generationist Howe tells my researcher Caitlin Wall, "of what is the generation with probably the weakest middle class of any of the other generation born in the 20th century." While most boomers proudly asserted their generational identity, "Xers" at first did not; now, however, most feel more comfortable with the label. It has been followed by Y and Z, but those are too obviously derivative, and the Millennial Generation—if narrowly defined as those beginning to come of age since 2000—has members still knee pants.THE JOSHUA GENERATIONU.S. presidents like to identify themselves with the zeitgeist inspiriting their electorate. "This generation of Americans." F.D.R. told the 1936 Democratic convention, "has a rendezvous with destiny," the final three words later evoked by both Lyndon Johnson and Ronald Reagan. John F. Kennedy, in his 1961 inaugural address, said, "The torch has been passed to a new generation of Americans—tempered by war, disciplined by a hard and bitter peace, proud of our ancient heritage." Speaking in March 2007 mat a chapel in Selma, Ala., in commemoration of a bloody march for voting rights, Senator Barack Obama put forward a name for a new generation of African-Americans. After acknowledging "a certain presumptuousness" in running for president after such a short time in Washington, Obama credited the Rev. Otis Moss Jr. for writing him "to look at the Story of Joshua because you"re part of the Joshua generation".He noted that the "Moses generation" had led his people out of bondage but was not permitted by God to cross the river from the wilderness to the Promised Land. In the Hebrew Bible, it was Joshua, chosen by Moses to be his successor, who led the people across, won the battle of Jericho and established the nation. "It was left to the Joshuas to finish the journey Moses had begun," Obama said to the youthful successors to the aging leaders of the civil rights movements, "and today we"re called to be the Joshua of our time, to be the generation that finds our way across the river."Though the spirit of an age is best defined in retrospect, and religious allusion is not currently considered cool, the Joshua Generation—unlike all its era-naming predecessors—does have alliteration going for it.（分数：10.00）(1).The Greatest Generation is also referred to as "The Veterans".（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误(2).William Manchester didn"t think highly of the Silent Generation.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误(3).The Beat Generation is characterized as being obsessed with material gain.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误(4).The Generation X follows the Baby-Boom Generation while the Generation Y precedes the Millennial Generation.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误(5).The Moses Generation refers to American leaders who fought for never saw the "Promised land" of racial equality.（分数：2.00）A.正确B.错误CTV Can Be Good for YouTelevision wastes time, pollutes minds, destroys brain cells, and turns some viewers into murderers. 1 . But television has at least one strong virtue, too, which helps to explain its endurance as a cultural force. In an era when people often have little time to speak with one another, television provides replacement voices that ease loneliness, spark healthful laughter, and even educate young children.Most people who have lived alone understand the curse of silence, when the only sound is the buzzof unhappiness or anxiety inside one"s own head. Although people of all ages who live alone can experience intense loneliness, the elderly are especially vulnerable to solitude. For example, they may suffer increased confusion or depression when left alone for long periods but then rebound when they have steady companionship.A study of elderly men and women in New Zealand found that television can actually serve as a companion by assuming "the role of social contact with the wider world", reducing "feeling of isolation and loneliness because it directs viewers" attention away from themselves". 2 .The absence of real voices can be most damaging when it means a lack of laughter.3 . Laughter is one of the most powerful calming forces available to human beings, proven in many Studies to reduce heart rate, lower blood pressure, and ease other stress-related ailments. Television offers plenty of laughter for all kinds of viewers: the recent listing for a single Friday night included more than twenty comedy programs running on the networks and on basic cable between 6 pm and 9 pm.A study reported in a health magazine found that laughter inspired by television and video is as healthful as the laughter generated by live comedy. Volunteers laughing at a video comedy routine "showed significant improvements in several immune functions, such as natural killer-cell activity". 4 . Even for people with plenty of companionship, television"s replacement voices can have healthful effects by causing laughter.Television also provides information about the world. This service can be helpful to everyone but especially to children, whose natural curiosity can exhaust the knowledge and patience of their parents and caretakers. 5 . For example, educational programs such as those on the Discovery Channel, the Disney Channel, and PBS offer a steady stream of information at various cognitive levels. Even many cartoons, which are generally dismissed as mindless or worse, familiarize children with the material of literature, including strong characters enacting classic narratives. Two researchers studying children and television found that TV is a source of creative and psychological instruction, inspiring children "to play imaginatively and develop confidence and skills". Instead of passively watching, children "interact with the programs and videos" and "sometimes include the fictional characters they"ve met into reality"s play time". 6 .The value of these replacement voices should not be oversold. For one thing, almost everyone agrees that too much TV does no one any good and may cause much harm. Many studies show that excessive TV watching increases violent behavior, especially in children, and can cause, rather than ease, other antisocial behaviors and depression. 7 . Steven Pinker, an expert in children"s language acquisition, warns that children cannot develop language properly by watching television. They need to interact with actual speakers who respond directly to their specific needs. Replacement voices are not real voices and in the end do only limited good.But even limited good is something, especially for those who are lonely, angry, or neglected. Television is not an entirely positive force, but neither is it an entirely negative one. Its voices stand by to provide company, laughter, and information whenever they"re needed.A. In addition, human being require the give-and-take of actual interaction.B. While the TV may be baby-sitting children, it can also enrich them.C. Thus runs the prevailing talk about the medium, supported by serious research as well as simplebelief.D. Here, too, research shows that television can have a positive effect on health.E. Thus television"s replacement voices both inform young viewers and encourage exchange.F. Television can be a positive practical training ground for moral growth in a changing world.G. Thus television"s replacement voices can provide comfort because they distract from a focus on being alone.H. Further, the effects of the comedy were so profound that "merely anticipating watching a funny video improved mood, depression, and anger as much as two days beforehand."（分数：14.00）ⅡTechnology and Intellectual Property: Problems and SolutionsAccess to low-carbon technologies in the developing world does not mean doing away with Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs). This has been the most emotive and appears the thorniest of issues. It should not be. 1 . The concerns of the developing world are principally about whether they will have access to technologies at fair or affordable prices, which are being pressed on them by the developed countries. The perceived issue may be hypothetical in many situations. Having no IPRs, or compulsory licensing—with the consequent risk of free-riding—is not the solution.2 . For most technologies, patents are not filed in the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), because the small potential markets do not justify the cost of obtaining patents there . In such cases domestic companies are free to use the invention in that country, but not for expect to a country where there is patent protection. Therefore, LPRs are unlikely to be inhibiting within these LDCs. If LDC manufacturers are permitted—through compulsory licensing—to manufacture for sale in a country where there is patent protection (for commercial reasons), then it will damage the incentive structure that IPRs create and should not easily be permitted.3 . Companies generally sell at differentially low prices in the LDCs provided that there is no leakage of these products back into their main markets, where they will sell at higher prices . The World Trade Organisation"s 2001 Doha Declaration provided for this in the case of pharmaceuticals. Some countries, such as Japan, would need to change their laws and regulations to prevent such trade.If there are relevant IPRs which do inhibit otherwise legitimate take-up in the developing countries, there are several solutions:·If the IPRs are publicly held, local LDC companies could receive a geographically limited license, at preferential or zero cost. 4 . This would not significantly damage the broader objective of promoting investment by the private sector in low-carbon technologies and products for use in countries where they will have a bigger carbon-reduction impact on reducing global carbon emissions.·If the IPRs are privately held, there are several solutions: their use can be paid for or subsidised by governments; they can be paid for subsidised by charities.Compulsory licensing is also possible. Compulsory licensing is permitted in most countries (except the US) as an exceptional measure in cases of abuse of monopoly or a national emergency, to limit the ability of an IPR owner to stop others from using the IPRs. Its use is constrained by WTO agreement and is intended to be used as a policy of last resort. A reasonable royalty must be paid to the IPR owner. So compulsory licensing is not a low- or zero-cost option. Compulsory licensing is permitted in Europe but there are no recorded examples of its use. 5 . It is generally regarded as a "nuclear option" by both governments and business, which will come an agreement without its use being invoked.（分数：40.00）______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________。

But are they 130 false? In the case of at least one writer, it would seem not. Dame Muriel Spark, who 131 80 in February, in many ways resembles this stereotypical sitter. She is certainly not crazy, and she doesn't work in an attic. But she is rather 132 about the tools of her writing.She insists on writing with a certain type of pen in a certain type of notebook, which she buys from a certain 133 in Edinburgh called James Thin. In fact, so 134. is she that, if someone uses one of her pens 135, she immediately throws it away. And she claims she would have enormous difficulty writing in any notebook 136 those sold by James Thin. This could soon be a problem, as the shop no longer 137 them, and Dame Muriel's supply of 72-page spiral bound is nearly finished.As well as her 138 about writing materials, Dame Muriel Spark 139 one other characteristic with the stereotypical writer: her work is the most important thing in her life. It has stopped her from marrying, 140 the loss of her old friends and driven her from London to New Y ork to Rome. Today she lives in the Italian province of Tuscany with a friend. 126.

(30 points total with 3 for each item)A ReviewOrganized by the national gallery of Scotland on collaboration with the royal academy of arts, Rembrandt＇s Women was first been acclaimed by the critics, at its opening this summer in Edinburgh. Do not expect the emotional impact from his best-known masterpieces such like “The Anatomy Lesson of Dr Nicola＇s Tulp”: rather , the exhibition is valued for bringing under the spotlight the fascinating intertwining of private life and artistic matter in Rembrandt＇s portrayals of women.The exhibition is the first to focus in the subject of Rembrandt＇s depiction of womankind, and feature a total 141 drawings, etchings and paintings, ranging from mythological or biblical subjects up to intimateportrayals. At chronological order, we see the development of Rembrandt＇s sensitive and perceptive depiction of women with it＇s unparalleled blend of universal and personal elements. If, on the one hand, his realism, inspired by Caravaggio, shocked contemporaries because of this refusal of classical standards of idealized beauty, in the other hand the influence from Titian and Carracci＇s classicism are clear.Section Ⅲ:Reading ComprehensionYou will read an excerpt from Room with a View by E.M. Forster. Read and answer the questions that fallow. (35points total in this section with5 for each item)A passionate musicianIt so happened that Lucy, who found daily life rather chaotic, enter a more solid world when she opened the piano. She was then no longer either deferential or patronizing; no longer either a rebel or a slave. The kingdom of music is not the kingdom of this world; it will accept those whom breeding and intellect and culture have alike rejected. The commonplace person begins to play, and shoots into the empyrean without effort, whilst we look up, marveling how he has escaped us, and thinking how we could worship him and love him would he but translate his visions into human actions. Perhaps he cannot; certainly he does not, or does so very seldom. Lucy had done so never.She was no dazzling execultante; nor was she the passionate young lady, who performs so tragically on a summer’s evening with the window open. Passion was there, but it could not be easily labeled. And she was tragical only in the sense that she was great, for she loved to play on the side of Victory. Victory of what and over what-that is more than the words of daily life can tell us. But that some sonatas of Beethoven are written tragic no one can gainsay; yet they can triumph or despair as the player decides, and Lucy had decided that they should triumph.A very wet afternoon at the Pension Bertolini permitted her to do the thing she had really like, and after lunch she opened –the little draped piano. A few people lingered round and praised her playing, but find it that she made no reply, dispersed to their rooms to write up their diaries or to sleep. She took no notice of Mr. Emerson looking for his son, nor of Miss Bartlett looking for Miss Lavish, nor Miss Lavish looking for her book. Like every true performer, she was intoxicated by the mere feel of the notes.Mr. Beebe, sitting unnoticed in the window, pondered over this illogical element in Lucy Honeychurch, and recalled the occasion at Tunbridge Well when he had discovered it. It was at one of the those entertainments where the upper classes entertain the lower. The seats were filled with a respectful audience, and the Indies and gentlemen of this parish, under the auspices of their vicar, sang, or recited, or imitated the drawing of a champagne cork. Among the promised items was ‘Miss Honeychurch. Piano. Beethoven’, and Mr. Deebe was wondering whether it would be ‘Adelaida’, or the march of ‘The Ruins of Athens’, when his composure was disturbed by the opening bars of Opus Ⅲ. He was in suspense all through the introduction for not until the pace quickens dose one know what the performer intends. With the roar of the opening theme he knew that things were going extraordinary; in the chords that herald the conclusion he heard the hammer strokes of victory. He was glad that she only played the first movement, for he could have paid no attention to the winding intricacies of the measure of nine-sixteen. The audience clapped, no less respectful. It was Mr. Bebee who started the stamping; it was all that one could do.“Who is she?” he asked the vicar afterwards.‘ Cousin of one of my parishioner. I do not consider of her choice of a piece happy Beethoven is so usually simple and direct in his appeal thatit is sheer perversity to choose a thing like that , which, if anything disturbs.’When he was introduced, Mr. Beebe realized that Miss Honeychurch, disjoined from her music-stool, was only a young lady with a very pretty, pale, underdeveloped face. She loved going to concerts, she love stopping with her cousin, she loved iced coffee and meringues. But before he left Tunbridge Wells he made a remark to the vicar, which he now made to Lucy herself when she closed the little piano and moved dreamily towards him. ‘ If Miss Honeyvhurch ever takes to live as she plays, it will be exciting—both for us and for her.’Select the best answers to the question or complete to sentences.1.In the first paragraph we told that _______.A.one needs to reject worldly pleasure to truly develop musicaltalentB.music is sometimes regarded as a substitute for creationC.there is often a mismatch between great musical talent andordinary lifeD.it is amazing how great an effect music tends to have on our lives2.Lucy’s piano playing______.A.displayed a mixture of strong feelingsB.tended to be rather melodramaticC.failed to capture the tragic nature of some musicD.was marred by some inaccuracies3.When she played at the Pension Bertolini, Lucy ______.A.wished she could play betterB.asked to be left aloneC.resented being interruptedD.was engrossed in the music4.What did Mr. Beebe realize at the entertainment he remembers atTunbridge Wells?A.That the vicar had vetted the contributionsB.That Lucy had a special musical talentC.That Lucy’s was the only performance of any valueD.That the audience were duty-bound to show appreciation5.What surprised Mr. Beebe when he heard Lucy at Tunbridge Wells?A.Lug’s choice of composerB.The way the opening theme developedC.Lucy’s choice of pieceD.The fact that Lucy didn’t play more of the work6.What was the vicar’s attitude to the music Lucy played?A.It was daring.B.It was offensive.C.It was too difficult.D.It was unsuitable.7.Wheat was Mr. Beebe’s reaction when he met Lucy?A.He was pleased that she enjoyed simple pleasures.B.He was disappointed at how ordinary she was.C.He felt that she ought to make life more seriously.D. He was surprised that she wasn’t as beautiful he had imagined.Section Ⅳ: WritingRead the following quote and write an article of at least 500 words long for a newspaper to argue for or against the author’s opinion.(40 points for this section)We shall live to see the day, I trust, when no man shall build his house for posterity.

2009年初级英语考试试卷（答案）
2009年初级英语考试试卷（答案）⾼化公司2009年初级任职资格外语考试试卷英语（120分钟内完成）单位：姓名：⼀、阅读理解（每题3分，共30分）短⽂1（15分）A breakthrouth in the provision of energy from the sun for the European Economic Community (EEC) could be brought forward by up to two decades,if a modest increase could be provided in the EEC’s research effort in this field,according to the senior EEC scientists engaged in experiments in solar energy at EEC’s scientific laboratories at Ispra,near Milan.The senior West German scientist in charge of the Community’s solar energy program,Mr.Joachim Gretz,told journalists that at present levels of research spending,it was most unlikely that solar energy would provide as much as three per cent of the Community’s energy requirements even after the year2,000. But he said that with a modest increase in the presentsums,devoted by the EEC to this work it was impossible that the breakthrough could be achieved by the end of the next decade.Mr.Gretz calculates that if solar energy only provided three per cent of the EEC’s need,this could still produce a saving of about a billion pounds in the present bill for imported energy each year.And he believes that with the possibility of utilizing more advanced technology in this field it might bepossible to satisfy a much bigger share of the Community’s future energy needs.At present the EEC spends about ＄2.6 millions a year on solar research at Ispra,one of the EEC’s official joint research centers,and another ＄3 million a year in indirect research with universities and other independent dodies.Questions:1.The phrase “be brought forward” in Line 2 most probably means( C ).A)be expectedB)be completedC)be advancedD)be introduced2.Some scientists believe that a breakthrough in the use of solar energy dependson( A ).A)sufficient fundingB)further experimentsC)advanced technologyD)well-equipped laboratories3.According to Mr.Gretz,the present sum of money will enable the scientists toprovide ( C )A)a little more than 3%of the EEC’s needs after the year 2000B)3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000C)less than 3% of the EEC’s needs before the year 2000D)only 3% of the EEC’s needs even after the year 20004.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?( A ).A)The EEC spends one billion pounds on imported energy each year.B)At the present level of research spending,it is difficult to make any significant progress in the provision of energy from the sun.C)The desired breakthrough could be obtained by the end of the next decade ifinvestment were increased.D)The total yearly spending of the EEC on solar energy research amounted to almost 6 million dollars.5.The application of advanced technology to research in solarenergy( D ).A)would lead to a big increase in research fundingB)would make it unnecessary to import oilC)wold make it possible to meet the future energy needs of the EECD)wold provide a much greater proportion of the Community’s future energyneeds短⽂2（15分）It is,everyone agrees,a huge task that the child performs when he learns to speak,and the fact that he does so in so short a period of time challenges explanation.Language learing begins with listening.Individual children vary greatly in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and late starters are ofen long listeners. Most children will”obey”spoken instructions some time before they can speak,though the word obey is hardly accurate as a description of the eager and delighted cooperation usually shown by the child. Before they can speak,many children will also ask questions by gesture and by making questioning noises.Any attempt to trace the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties.It is agreed that they enjoy making noises,and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particularly indicative of delight,distress,sociability,and so on.But since these cannot be said to show the baby’s intention to communicate,they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed,too,that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment,and that by six months they are able to add new sounds to theirrepertoire(能发出的全部声⾳).This self-imitation leads on to deliberate(有意识的)imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The proble then arises as to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.Questions:6. By “…challenges explanation”(Line 2, Para.1)the author means that( C )A)no explanation is necessary for such an obvious phenomenonB)no explanation has been made up to nowC)it’s no easy job to provide an adequate explanationD)it’s high time that an explanation was provided7. The third paragraph is mainly about( A )A)the development of babies’ early forms of languageB)the difficulties of babies in learning to speakC)babies’storng desire to communicateD)babies’ intention to communicate8. The author’s purpose in writing the second paragraph is to show that children( D ).A)usually obey without asking questionsB)are passive in the process of learning to speakC)are born cooperativeD)lean to speak by listening9. From the passage we lean that( C ).A)early starters can learn to speak within only six monthsB)children show a strong desire to communicate by making noisesC)imitation plays an important role in learning to speakD)children have various difficulties in learning to speak10. The best title for this passage would be( A ).A)How Babies Learn to SpeakB)Early Forms of LanguageC)A Huge Task For ChildrenD)Noise Making and Language Learning⼆、英译汉（将下列短⽂译成汉语，共50分）短⽂1（28分）If half of the water were to be drained from the Pacific Ocean,a curious kind of submarine mountain called a guyot would be exposed.Guyos are strange formations that resemble mushroom stalks with flat tops.More than six hundred and fifty of these volcanic stalks have been discovered in the Pacific Ocean,and a few others have been discovered in Atlantic sea plains.It is easy to suppose that the guyots were formed by underwater lava spouts that poled up volcanic debris over the years,but just how they acquired their curiously flat tops remains a mystery.Shallow-water fossils found embeded in the tops of some guyots suggest that at one time the flat caps were much nearer the ocean’s surface,but beyond this there is little that scientists can say.如果将太平洋的⼀半⽔抽出，⼀种被称作海底平顶⼭的奇异的海底⾼⼭就会露出。

基础英语2009
II. Translation.Technology and Intellectual Property: Problems and Solutions Access to low-carbon technologies in the developing world does not mean doing away with Intellectual Property Rights (IPRs). This has been the most emotive and appears the thorniest of issues. It should not be. (25)The concerns of the developing world are principally about whether they will have access to technologies at fair or affordable prices, which are being pressed on them by developed countries. They perceived issue may be hypothetical in many situations. Having no IPRs, or compulsory licensing—with the consequent risk of free-riding—is not the solution.(26)For most technologies, patents are not filed in the Least Developed Countries (LDCs), because the small potential markets do not justify the cost of obtaining patents there. In such cases domestic companies are free to use the invention in that country, but not for export to a country where there is patent protection. Therefore, IPRs are unlikely to be inhibiting within these LDCs. If LDC manufacturers are permitted—through compulsory licensing—to manufacture for sale in a country where there patent protection (for commercial reasons), then it will damage the incentive structure that IPRs create and should not easily be permitted.(27)Companies generally sell at differentially low prices in the LDCs provided that there is no leakage of these products back into their main markets, where they will sell at higher prices. The World Trade Organisation's 2001 Doha Declaration provided for this in the case of pharmaceuticals. Some countries, such as Japan, would need to change their laws and regulations to prevent such trade.If there are relevant IPRs which do inhibit otherwise legitimate take-up in the developing countries, there are several solutions:*If the IPRs are publicly held, local LDC companies could receive a geographically limited licence, at preferential or zero cost. (28)This would not significantly damage the broader objective of promoting investment by the private sector in low-carbon technologies and products for use in countries where they will have a bigger carbon-reduction impact on reducing global carbon emissions.*If the IPRs are privately held, there are several solutions: their use can be paid for or subsidised by governments; they can be paid for or subsidised by charities.Compulsory licensing is also possible. Compulsory licensing is permitted in most countries (except the US) as an exceptional measure in cases of abuse of monopoly or a national emergency, to limit the ability of an IPR owner to stop others from using the IPRs. Its use is constrained by WTO agreement and is intended to be used as a policy of last resort. A reasonable royalty must be paid to the IPR owner. So compulsory licensing is not a low- or zero-cost option. Compulsory licensing is permitted in Europe but there are no recorded examples of its issue. (29)It is generally regarded as a "nuclear option" by both governments and business, which will come to an agreement without its use being invoked.(25)发展中国家关心的主要是他们能否以公平且能承受得起的价格购得技术，而不是由发达国家强行出售。
