Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, and C. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)“Everything happens for the best,” my mother said each time I faced disappointment or even depression. “If you carry on, one day something good will happen. And you’ll realize that it wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”Mother was right, which I didn’t discover until after graduating from college in 1932. I had decided to try for a job in radio, then work my way up to sports announcer. I hitchhiked to Chicago and knocked on the door of every station—and got turned down every time. In one studio, a kind lady told me that in most cases big stations couldn’t risk hiring an inexperienced person. “Go out in the remote areas and find a small station that’ll give you a chance,” she said. I went back home to Dixon, Illinois.While there were no radio-announcing jobs in Dixon, my father said Montgomery Ward had opened a store and wanted a local athlete to manage its sports department. Since Dixon was where I had played high school football, I applied. The job sounded just right for me.But I wasn’t hired. My disappointment must have shown. “Everything happens for the best.” Mom reminded me. Dad offered me the car to hunt for jobs. I tried WOC Radio in Davenport, Iowa. The program director, a wonderful Scotsman named Peter MacArthur told me they had already hired an announcer.As I left his office, my frustration boiled over. I asked aloud, “How can a fellow get to be a sports announcer if he can’t get a job in a radio station?” I was waiting for the elevator when I heard MacArthur calling, “What was that you said about sports? Do you know anything about football?” Then he stood me before a microphone and asked me to broadcast an imaginary game. The preceding autumn, my team had won a game in the last 20 seconds with a 65-yard run. I did a 15-minute boost to that play, and Peter told me I would be broadcasting Saturday’s game!On my way home, as I have many times since, I thought of my mother’s words, “If you carry on, one day something good will happen. Something wouldn’t have happened if not for that previous disappointment.”76. We learn from the passage that ________.A. the frustration of the author prevented him from performing well at WOC RadioB. both of the author’s parents showed support when he was trying to search for a jobC. Peter MacArthur recognized the author’s talent in broadcasting after reading his resumeD. the author lost all his hope and courage when he was turned down by Montgomery Ward77. What was most likely the author’s attitude towards Peter MacArthur?A. He was worried that Peter wouldn’t believe in his ability.B. He was afraid that his loud inner claim would annoy Peter.C. He was angry that Peter didn’t offer him a satisfying position.D. He was grateful that Peter could notice his broadcasting potential.78. What lesson can you learn from the author’s experience in the passage?A. Well begun is half done.B. Prevention is better than cure.C. No cross, no crown.D. Rome was not built in a day.(B)Australian scientists are trying to give kangaroo-style stomachs to cattle and sleep in order to cut the greenhouse gases they send out, which is thought to be responsible for global warming.Thanks to special bacteria in their stomachs, kangaroo flatulence (肠胃气胀) contains no methane (甲烷) and scientists want to transfer that bacteria to cattle and sheep who produce large quantities of the harmful gas.While the usual image of greenhouse gas pollution is a billowing smokestack (烟囱) pushing out carbon dioxide, farm animals’ passing wind contribute a surprisingly high percentage of total emissions in some countries.“Fourteen percent of emissions from all sources in Australia is from enteric methane fromcattle and sheep,” said Athol Klieve, a senior research scientist with the Queensland state government.“And if you look at another country such as New Zealand, which has got a much higher agricultural base, they’re actually up around 50 percent,” he said.Researchers say the bacteria also makes the digestive process much more efficient and could potentially save millions of dollars in feed costs for farmers.But it will take researchers at least three years to isolate the bacteria, before they can even start to develop a way of transferring it to cattle and sheep.Another group of scientists, meanwhile, has suggested Australians should farm fewer cattle and sheep and just eat more kangaroos. And about 20 percent of health-conscious Australians are believed to eat the national symbol already.“It’s low in fat, it’s got high protein levels and it’s very clean in the sense that basically it’s the free-range animal,” said Peter Ampt of the University of New South Wales’s institute of environmental studies.79. Scientists intend to put bacteria into cattle and sheep_______.A. to prevent them from sending out harmful gasesB. to help Australian farmers to earn more moneyC. so that they can protect Australian ecosystemD. so that they can make full use of special bacteria80. Athol Klieve seems to believe that ___________.A. cattle and sheep produce more carbon dioxideB. less cattle and sheep are raised in New ZealandC. farm animals are to blame for greenhouse gasesD. New Zealand has the most animals in the world81. The advantages Peter Ampt lists about kangaroos don’t include _________.A. it is rich in proteinB. is low in fatC. it is cheaper than beefD. it is cleaner than sheep(C)Too much work, too little money and not enough opportunity for promotion or growth are stressing us out on the job, according to a new survey from the American Psychological Association.We all know that stress reduces all of the things that help productivity—mental clarity(清晰), short-term memory, decision-making and moods. One-third of employees experience lasting stress related to work, the survey found. Fifty-four percent of the 1,501 employed adults surveyed say they feel they are paid too little for thei r contributions, and 61% said their jobs don’t offer adequate opportunities to advance. Only half of the adults surveyed said they feel valued at work.Besides, women’s stress is rising as families rely more on women’s earnings. An employed wife’s contrib ution to family earnings has reached, on average, 47% since 2009, so women feel especially stuck and tense. Thirty-two percent of women said their employers don’t provide sufficient opportunities for internal advancement, compared with 30% of men. Women are more likely to feel tense during a typical workday, reporting more often that their employer doesn’t appreciate what they do.Physically, the body responds to stress by secreting hormones into the bloodstream that stimulate accelerated(加速的) heart rate and breathing and tensing of muscles. People who experience stress as a positive often have increased blood flow to the brain, muscles and limbs, similar to the effects of aerobic exercise. Those who feel frightened or threatened, however, oftenhave an unstable heart rate and constricting blood vessels(血管). Their blood pressure rises and hands and feet may grow cold. They may become agitated, speak more loudly or experience errors in judgment.Emotional responses to stress often divide along gender lines, with men more likely to have a “fight or flight” reaction while women are more likely to have a “tend and befriend” response, seeking comfort in relationships and care of loved ones, according to the research.Women tend to “internalize”, which contributes t o their stress. Many women hesitate to speak up for themselves or challenge behavior they see as unfair. Kay Keaney, interior designer, 40, rose fast at a California medical group, taking on responsibility for interior and facility planning. With her 60-hour workweeks, plus early-morning and late-night meetings and a 1.5-hour commute each way, she seldom had time with her two small children. Whether stuck in traffic on her way to a 6 p.m. pickup at day care, or torn between her children and urgent work emai ls, “I just wanted to crawl out of my skin,” she says. “I was overwhelmed.” Yet she hesitated to complain. “There was too much work to be done, and playing the Mommy card was bad form.”But the experts suggest that women should give themselves a voice.82. The underlined word “agitated” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to _______.A. fearfulB. optimisticC. anxiousD. ambitious83. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A. Everyone has a painful sense of being under-appreciated or under-paid.B. An increasing number of people feel satisfied with work-life balance.C. An improving job market is making some people’s work lives easier.D. Most women have higher levels of work stress than the opposite sex.84. We can learn from the example of Kay Keaney that _____.A. relieving oneself from stress involves being frank as well as braveB. experiencing symptoms of lasting stress causes communication barriersC. seeking comfort from friends or relatives has little to do with office stressD. being challenged or devalued by others leads to numerous health problems85. What is most probably to be discussed in the following paragraphs?A. Other aspects in life affected by stress in work.B. Tips to help women handle their hard times properly.C. Examples to show the different gender responses to stress.D. Reasons why people are likely to feel tense when working.DUniversity educators largely think highly of the wonders of teaching through technology, but skeptics question whether something is lost when professors and lectures rely too heavily on electronic media or when interaction with students takes place remotely — in cyberspace rather than the real space of the classroom. Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht, the Professor of Literature at Stanford University, is one such skeptic. “I think this enthusiastic and sometimes childish and blind pushing toward the more technology the better, the more websites the better teacher, and so forth, is very dangerous — is, indeed, suicidal,” he indicates.However, Gumbrecht warns that there are few, if any, studies either supporting or rejecting thehypothesis that traditional ways of teaching are superior to teaching via the Internet. He says that he could point only to his “intuition that real classroom presence should be maintained,” and emphasizes the need for educators to examine critically where technology serves a useful pedagogical (教学法的) function and where it does not.Yet, Gumbrecht allows that, for courses in which knowledge transmission is the sole purpose, electronic media probably can do the job well enough. Indeed, given the 20th century’s knowledge explosion and the increasing costs of higher education, using technology as opposed to real-life teachers for the transmission of information is probably inevitable, he admits. In any case, knowledge transmission should not be the core function of the university, he maintains, noting that universities should be places where people confront open questions, places for “intellectual complexity” and “riskful thinking”.“We are not about finding or transmitting solutions; we are not about recipes; we are not about making intellectual life easy. Confrontation with complexity is what expands your mind. It is something like intellectual gymnastics. And this is what makes you a suitable member of the society.”Moreover, discussions in the physical presence of others can lead to the intellectual innovation. “There’s a qualitative change, and you don’t know how it happens. Discussions in the physical presence have the capacity of being the catalyst (催化剂) for such intellectual breakthroughs. The possibility of in-classroom teaching — of letting something happen which cannot happen if you teach by the transmission of information — is a strength.”86. Which of the following is the best title to this passage?A. Cyberspace InteractionB. The Core Function of the UniversityC. Information Transmission Cannot Help You SurviveD. Electronic Teaching Arouses Uncertainty87. Which of the following might Professor Gumbercht support?A. Professors should be keen on teaching technique innovation.B. Technologies applied to classrooms strength creative thinking.C. Traditional pedagogical function has its place in classroom.D. The core function of the university is to focus on knowledge transmitting.88. Cyberspace teaching could replace real-life teachers EXCEPT when ________.A. transmitting knowledge is the only purpose of the courseB. there’s too much knowledge to put across to the studentsC. the cost of college education increases greatlyD. open questions without possible answers are encouraged89. According to the passage, discussion in the physical presence of others can ________.A. lead to greatly improved intellectual abilitiesB. lead to easier and stronger transmission of informationC. produce certain energy for intellectual breakthroughsD. produce qualitative change in teacher-students relationshipsTranslation 17% (前三句各3分，后两句各4分)Directions: Translate the following sentences into English, using the words given in the brackets.90. 不要让吸烟剥夺你的健康。
