•A、dry
•B、snowy
•C、rainy
•D、misty
解析:1.D 此句意思为:雨可能会慢慢渗进土壤中去,(同时)渗入地下天然大水库中。
根据常识判断,这两句既不是因果关系,也不表示主、从句之间的动作先后关系,因此可排除选项A,C;而B.if 引导一个条件状语从句,不符合题意;只有D.as正确,在句子中引导一个时间状语从句,渗入土壤中去的同时,也就渗入地下天然大水库中。
2.A 介词by后跟动名词短语,表示动作进行的方式,意思为“通过……方式”,因此选A evaporating。
B.being evaporating为进行时,不符合题意和用法;C.having been evaporated和
D.being evaporated为被动语态,此处不需要,故应先排除。
3.B problem与with组合,表示“……有问题”,这里指this recycling system(本身)有问题;如果与of组合,则表示“是……问题”。
关类似的用法如:There's something wrong with her stomach.她的胃有些毛病。
The main problem of this city is that it has no garbage disposal.这个城市的主要问题是没有垃圾处理系统。
4.D 本句意思为:只有人们去保护它,而不是破坏它,大自然的循环墩系统才能正常工作。
D.only if表示条件“只有……”,是正确答案。
B.unless的意思是“除非,如果不”,一般在从句或者主句中含有否定意思。
例如:You won't succeed unless you work harder.你若不更加努力,你就会失败。
Unless bad weather stops me,I got for a walk every day.除非受阻于坏天气,我每天都出去散步。
此处选项A和C不符合题意,逻辑上也讲不通,可以排除。
5.C 此句意思为:人们干预大自然的方式很容易理解。
C.interfere wit.意为“干预,干涉”,如:Don't interfere with other people's affairs..不要干涉他人的事情。
A.accord with意为“一致,符合”,如:His opinion accorded with mine.他的意见与我的一致。
选项B.concern常与with,

•D、not possible
9)、(单选题)
•A、careful
•B、forgetful
•C、wonderful
•D、helpful
10)、(单选题)
•A、either
•B、whether
•C、what
•D、how
解析:
1.B 这里是“否则”的意思,otherwise最合适。
2.D 唯一容易学的语言是母语。
这里需要一个形容词easy充当后置定语。
3.A 用来修饰不可数名词,只有用how much,全句意为“母语好学,还需要那么多的练习。
”何况外语呢?。
4.B 此处是动词不定式充当目的状语。
意为“学习外语来研究文学”。
5.D 此处选it,代指上文所说的a foreign language。
6.A 作者在这里提出一种假设。
如果他们一星期只有一两次使用外语,所以选A。
7.C take a long time是固定短语,意为“做某事花费某人多长时间”。
8.C 此句句意是:许多人不可能做到这一点。
这里不可以用not possible,因为它的主语不可以用人。
9.D 根据上下文意思可知,机器和书对于学习英语来说是很有帮助的。
10. B 文章本句中,whether …or…是固定搭配。

1(50分)、
Vernon Bowman, a 75-year-old farmer from rural Indiana, did something that got him su ed. He planted soybeans (大豆)sold as cattle feed. But Monsanto, the agricultural giant, i nsists it has a patent on the kind of genetically modified seeds Bowman used―and that the patent continues to all of the progeny (后代)of those seeds.
Have we really gotten to the point that planting a seed can lead to a high-stakes Sup reme Court patent lawsuit? We have, and that case is Bowman vs. Monsanto, which is being ar gued on Tuesday. Monsanto’s critics have attacked the company for its “merciless legal ba ttles against small farmers,” and they are hoping this will be the case that puts it in it s place. They are also hoping the court’s ruling will rein in patent law, which is increas ingly being used to claim new life forms as private property.
Monsanto and its supporters, not surprisingly, see the case very differently. They ar gue that when a company like Monsanto goes to great expense to create a valuable new geneti cally modified seed, it must be able to protect its property interests. If farmers like Bow man are able to use these seeds without paying the designated fee, it will remove the incen tives for companies like Monsanto to innovate.
Monsanto accused Bowman of patent infringement and won an $84,456 damage award. Rathe r than pay up or work out a settlement, Bowman decided to appeal—all the way to the Suprem e Court. He said “Monsanto should not be able, just because they’ve got billions of dolla rs to spend on legal fees, to try to terrify farmers into obeying their agreements by massi ve force and threats.”
The central issue in the case is whether patent rights to living things extend to the progeny of those things. Monsanto argues that its patents extend to later generations. But Bowman's supporters argue that Monsanto is trying to expand the scope of patents in ways t hat would enrich big corporations and hurt small farmers. They say that if Monsanto wins, t he impact will extend far beyond agriculture―locking up property rights in an array of imp ortant areas. Knowledge Ecology International contends that the Supreme Court’s ruling cou ld have “profound effects” on other biotech industries.
If this were a Hollywood movie, the courageous old Indiana farmer would beat the prof
it-minded corporation before the credits rolled. But this is a real-life argument before a Supreme Court that has a well-earned reputation for looking out for the interests of large corporations. This case gives the court an opportunity to rein in the growing use of patent s to protect genetically engineered crops and other life forms―but the court may well use
it to give this trend a powerful new endorsement.
1)、(单选题)Why did Vernon Bowman get sued?
•A、He used genetically modified seeds to feed his cattle.
•B、He planted soybeans without paying for the patent.

eeds.
3)、(单选题)What is the argument of Monsanto and its supporters?

on.

d seeds.
•D、Patent law on genetically modified seeds should not be cha
llenged.

tion.

mers.

pporting large corporations.

ned to work out a settlement.

argued in a Hollywood movie.

2(50分)、
Call it the “learning paradox”, the more you struggle and even fail while you’re try ing to learn new information, the better you’re likely to recall and apply that informatio n later.
The learning paradox is at the heart of “productive failure”, a phenomenon identified by researcher Manu Kapur. Kapur points out that while the model adopted by many teachers w hen introducing students to new knowledge―providing lots of structure and guidance early o n, until the students show that they can do it on their own―makes intuitive sense, it may not be the best way to promote learning. Rather, it’s better to let the learners wrestle (较劲)with the material on their own for a while, refraining from giving them any assistan ce at the start. In a paper published recently, Kapur applied the principle of productive f ailure to mathematical problem solving in three schools.
With one group of students, the teacher provided strong “scaffolding”―instructiona l support—and feedback. With the teacher’s help, these pupils were able to find the answe rs to their set of problems. Meanwhile, a second group was directed to solve the same probl ems by collaborating with one another, without any prompts from their instructor. These stu dents weren’t able to complete the problems correctly. But in the course of trying to do s o, they generated a lot of ideas about the nature of the problems and about what potential solutions would look like. And when the two groups were tested on what they’d learned, the second group “significantl y outperformed” the first.
The apparent struggles of the floundering (挣扎的)group have what Kapur calls a “hidd en efficacy”: they lead people to understand the deep structure of problems, not simply th eir correct solutions. When these students encounter a new problem of the same type on a te st, they’re able to transfer the knowledge they’ve gathered more effectively than those w ho were the passive recipients of someone else’s expertise.
In the real world, problems rarely come neatly packaged, so being able to discern the ir deep structure is key. But, Kapur notes, none of us like to fail, no matter how often Si licon Valley entrepreneurs praise the beneficial effects of an idea that fails or a start-u p company that crashes and burns. So we need to “design for productive failure” by buildi ng it into the learning process. Kapur has identified three conditions that promote this ki nd of beneficial struggle. First, choose problems to work on that “challenge but do not fr
ustrate”. Second, provide learners with opportunities to explain and elaborate on what the
y’re doing. Third, give learners the chance to compare and contrast good and bad solutions to the problems. And to those students who protest this tough-love teaching style: you'll
thank me later.
1)、(单选题)Why does the author call the learning process a paradox?
•A、Pains do not necessarily lead to gains.
•B、What is learned is rarely applicable in life.
•C、Failure more often than not breeds success.
•D、The more is taught, the less is learnt.
2)、(单选题)What does Kapur disapprove of in teaching?
•A、Asking students to find and solve problems on their own.
•B、Developing students’ ability to apply what they learn.
•C、Giving students detailed guidance and instruction.
•D、Allowing students a free hand in problem solving.
3)、(单选题)What do people tend to think of providing strong “scaffolding” in
teaching?
•A、It will make teaching easier.
•B、It is a sensible way of teaching.
•C、It can motivate average students.
•D、It will enhance students’ confidence.
4)、(单选题)What kind of problem should be given to students to solve according to
Kapur?
•A、It should be able to encourage collaborative learning.
•B、It should be easy enough so as not to frustrate students.
•C、It should be solvable by average students with ease.
•D、It should be difficult enough but still within their re
ach.
5)、(单选题)What can be expected of “this tough-love teaching style” (Lines 8-9,
Para. 5)?
•A、Students will be grateful in the long run.
•B、Teachers will meet with a lot of resistance.
•C、Parents will think it too harsh on their kids.
•D、It may not be able to yield the desired results.
解析:
1. C 细节题第一段,在学习的时候越痛苦挣扎,日后越有可能记住和应用该知识。
2. C 细节题第二段第二句,Kapur指出,尽管被大量老师采用的对孩子进行手把手细致教学的
方法看起来很有意义,却未必是最好的促进学习的方法。
3. B 推理题第三段第一句scaffolding后的解释“instructional support”可知,该方法为第
二段里Kapur所提及的两种方法(“手把手教学”和“散养式教学”)的前一种,第二段第二句里提及大多数教师都选择该方法,并认为其“天然正确”(make intuitive sense)。
4. D 细节题最后一段第四句,替学生们选择的问题应该“有挑战性但又不能使其灰心丧气”
5. A 细节题最后一句,you’ll thank me later.

But no one forces you to go to sea. It gets in your blood
•A、但是谁也没有强迫你出海,它进到你的血液里了
•B、但是谁也没有强迫你出海,是你脑袋发热
•C、但是谁也没有强迫你出海,是你心甘情愿嘛
解析:something gets in (to) someone’s blood [口] 上瘾, 字面意思是“某种东西进入某人的血液”,比“热心去干”、“已经着迷”更进一步,而是“成为自己身体的一部分”,因此,这是一个带有“离不开”的感觉的表达法。
选项C翻译准确。
选项B将此短语按照字面意翻译,选项A的意思不准确。
综合考虑:答案从优到劣的排序为C-A-B。
2(10分)、
The recent research suggests that drinking coffee may not only lift your spirits, it may al so be good for your heart
•A、最近的研究主张,喝咖啡不能起到提高情绪的作用,但是对心脏很有好处
•B、最近的研究表明,喝咖啡不仅可以提神,对心脏也有好处
•C、最近的研究表明,喝咖啡既能提高勇气,又对心脏有好处
解析:“lift ones spirits”意思指“提神,打起精神”,因此C译文将之译为“提高勇气”,理解不当。
A译文将“not only”译为“不能…”,翻译错误,且前后句是递进关系,并非转折关系,因此“但是…”这种表达逻辑错误。
3(10分)、

•A、门口放着至少有十二把各种颜色和尺寸的雨伞
•B、门口放着一堆雨伞,少说也有十二把,五颜六色,大小不一
•C、门口至少放着十二把雨伞,各种尺寸和颜色的都有
解析:A译文采取直译法,修饰“雨伞”的定语过长表达累赘,忠于原文但是不够通畅。
B译文更符合汉语用词习惯,先总体概括再描述细节,忠实的基础上语句通顺兼具文采。
C译文忠实通顺,文采比之B译文稍逊。

•C、哪成想,他的这次出行差一点以灾难告终,他所乘的飞机因发动机出了故障而被迫降落在沼泽地里
解析:incidentally意思是“顺便;偶然地,不经意地;附带;捎带”,这里指“顺带说一下”。
比较来看,选项B译意准确,表达自然。
选项C将其译为“哪成想”,意思出入较大。
综合考虑:答案从优到劣的排序为B-A-C。
5(10分)、
We should, therefore, learn to choose our words carefully and use them accurately, or they will make our speech silly and vulgar
•A、所以我们应该学习仔细选词,并且精准用词,或者他们会使我们的演讲显得愚蠢又粗俗
•B、因此,我们应该学着斟酌字词,精确用词,否则这些词汇会使我们的语言显得愚蠢粗俗
•C、我们应该,因此,学着仔细选词,精确用词,否则他们会让我们的演讲显得愚蠢又粗俗
解析:B译文用词考究,语句通畅。
C译文中逻辑关系词“therefore”摆放位置不当,语句不够自然通畅,对于“they”的处理也并未指明其真正指示的是谁。
A译文错把“or”理解成“或者”,忽视了前后句的逻辑关系,应是“否则…”。
6(10分)、
The thought that she would be separated from her husband during his long and
dangerous journey saddened Mrs Brown

•B、在她丈夫那漫长而危险的旅途时间内她将和他分离的这个思想使布朗太太悲伤
•C、一想到她将和丈夫长期分居,旅途未卜,布朗太太一阵悲怆
解析:这句的主干部分是The thought …saddened Mrs Brown,that引导的是一个定语从句。
翻译时选项A将“布朗太太”作为主语,后面的语序符合汉语表达习惯,且译意准确。
选项B根据英文的字面意思逐字翻译,虽意思正确,但不太符合汉语表达习惯。
选项C意思与原文有出入。
综合考虑:答案从优到劣的排序为A-B-C。
7(10分)、
With the meeting to begin in just a couple of hours, I hadn’t the time to worry about such trifles

•B、不出两个小时,会议就要开始,我哪有时间为这些琐事操心
•C、不出两个小时,会议就要开始,我哪有闲工夫为这些琐事操心
解析:B译文中对于“time”的翻译应采取具体化手法,宜将之译为“闲工夫”,更为传神,而不是直译为“时间”,这样原文的反问语气更加强烈,因此C译文最佳。
A译文中对“a couple of”理解不准确,对“hadn’t the time”理解有误。

•A、在上海,高楼大厦犹如雨后春笋般地涌现
•B、高楼大厦正在不断涌现,犹如上海的蘑菇般
•C、在上海,高楼大厦犹如蘑菇般涌现
解析:文化传译的过程中,既要尽量传达原文的异国情调,又要确保译文为译入语读者所接受。
如把“like mushroom”异化翻译为“犹如蘑菇般”,则不够地道;采用归化译法,译为“雨后春笋”,则能
反映出中国的地貌风情,A译文最为传神。
C译文采用异化法,不够地道。
B译文理解有误,将限定词“in Shanghai”修饰的对象“High buildings and large mansions”与“mushrooms”混淆。
