专业英语八级(文化教育类写作)模拟试卷2(题后含答案及解析)
专业英语八级（文化教育类写作）模拟试卷2(题后含答案及解析) 题型有： 6. WRITINGPART VI WRITING (45 MIN)Directions: Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic.1．Do you agree with the following statement? Government should support scientific research even if there’s no practical use. Write an essay of about 400 words. You should supply an appropriate title for your essay. In the first part of your essay you should state clearly your main argument, and in the second part you should support your argument with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or make a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.正确答案：Should Government Support Impractical Scientific Research Nowadays the debate on whether government should spend money on science researches that don’t have practical use has been a hot issue. Ideas vary from person to person. Personally, I agree with the statement that government should allocate adequate funds to any scientific research that aims to improve the well-being of people, even if it is of no practical use in the short run. Firstly, the scientific research may help people to have a better understanding of the world they are living in. Research into the space is a case in point. In 1969, the Apollo program, ranked among the greatest human achievements in science in the twentieth century, landed Neil Armstrong, the first human being, on the surface of the moon. It is the first time that the vast majority of ordinary citizens in various regions throughout the world knew what is the moon because of this program. Maybe the scientific research didn’t have obviously practical use, but it led the people to focus on the galaxy exploration. Obviously, without support given by government, such a kind of space exploration would have been impossible. Secondly, lots of so-called practical scientific researches which were not regarded as practical at first later turned out to be quite practical. Were there not any seemingly useless researches and experiments, science would be stagnant. When the first computer was about to be developed, the public opinion went against it because they saw nothing practical except for the vast sum of funds poured on its research. However, it turned out to have transformed the way human society evolved and finally proved itself to be of great avail in the long run, especially in terms of scientific development in any fields such as military, medicine, aviation and education. Since we can’t predict whether the scientific research is really practical or not at the beginning and in the mid, it is not proper for us to give it up based on the judgment at the beginning. We can not only focus on the immediate effect of the scientific research. In sum, never should we imply that research whose benefits are unknown is not worth pursuing. After all, any research worthdoing delves into the unknown. Scientific research, even if there is no practical use, should also be supported by government because scientific research is important not only in practical vista, but also in some more profound areas.解析：本文在首段提出了全文的主题句，即任何科学研究，只要其目的是为了使人们生活得更幸福，哪怕短期没有实用价值，都应当得到政府充足的资金支持。

TRANSLATIONPART V TRANSLATION (60 MIN)SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESEDirections: Translate the following text into Chinese.1．From the very first there was too wide a gap between us. You had been idle at your school, worse than idle at your university. You did not realise that an artist, and especially such an artist as I am. one, that is to say, the quality of whose work depends on the intensification of personality-requires for the development of his art the companionship of ideas, and intellectual atmosphere, quiet, peace, and solitude. You admired my work when it was finished; you enjoyed the brilliant successes of my first nights, and the brilliant banquets that followed them: you were proud, and quite naturally so. of being the intimate friend of an artist so distinguished: but you could not understand the conditions requisite for the production of artistic work. I am not speaking in phrases of rhetorical exaggeration but in terms of absolute truth to actual fact when I remind you that during the whole time we were together I never wrote one single line. Whether at Torquay, Goring, London, Florence or elsewhere, my life, as long as you were by my side, was entirely sterile and uncreative. And with but few intervals you were, I regret to say, by my side always.正确答案：从一开始，你我之间的鸿沟就太大了。
