Companies 1 low accident rates plan their safety programs, work hard to organize them, and continue working to keep them 2 and active. When the work is well done, a 3 of accident free operations is established 4 time lost due to injuries is kept at a minimum.Successful safety programs may 5 greatly in the emphasis placed on certain aspects of the program. Some place great emphasis on mechanical guarding. Others stress safe work practices by 6 rules or regulations. 7 others depend on an emotional appeal to the worker. But, there are certain basic ideas that must be used in every program if maximum results are to be obtained.There can be no question about the value of a safety program.

For each question there are four answers marked [A], [B], [C]and [D]. Read the passages carefully and choose the best answer to each of the questions. Then mark your answer on ANSWER SHEET 1 by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets with a pencil. (40 points)Passage 1It’s a rough world out there. Step outside and you could break a leg slipping on your doormat. Light up the stove and you could burn down the house. Luckily, if the doormat or stove failed to warn of coming disaster, a successful lawsuit might compensate you for your troubles. Or so thethinking has gone since the early 1980s, when juries began holding more companies liable for their customers’ misfortunes.Feeling threatened, companies responded by writing ever longer warning labels, trying to anticipate every possible accident. Today, stepladders carry labels several inches long that warn, among other things, that you might—surprise!—fall off. The label on a child’s Batman cape cautions that the toy “does not enable user to fly”.While warnings are often appropriate and necessary—the dangers of drug interactions, for example—and many are required by state or federal regulations, it isn’t clear that they actu ally protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured. About 50 percent of the companies lose when injured customers take them to court.Now the tide appears to be turning. As personal injury claims continue as before, some courts are beginning to side with defendants, especially in cases where a warning label probably wouldn’t have changed anything. In May, Julie Nimmons, president of Schutt Sports in Illinois, successfully fought a lawsuit involving a football player who was paralyzed in a game while wearing a Schutt helmet. “We’re really sorry he has become paralyzed, but helmets aren’t designed to prevent those kinds of injuries, ” says Nimmons. The jury agreed that the nature of the game, not the helmet, was the reason for t he athlete’s injury. At the same time, the American Law Institute—a group of judges, lawyers, and academics whose recommendations carry substantial weight—issued new guidelines for tort law stating that companies need not warn customers of obvious dangers or bombard them with a lengthy list of possible ones. “Important information can get buried in a sea of trivialities, ” says a law professor at Cornell Law School who helped draft the new guidelines. If the moderate end of the legal community has its way, the information on products might actually be provided for the benefit of customers and not as protection against legal liability.11. What were things like in 1980s when accidents happened?[A]Customers might be relieved of their disasters through lawsuits.[B]Injured customers could expect protection from the legal system.[C]Companies would avoid being sued by providing new warnings.[D]Juries tended to find fault with the compensations companies promised.12. Manufacturers as mentioned in the passage tend to.[A]satisfy customers by writing long warnings on products[B]become honest in describing the inadequacies of their products[C]make the best use of labels to avoid legal liability[D]feel obliged to view customers’safety as their first concern13. The case of Schutt helmet demonstrated that.[A]some injury claims were no longer supported by law[B]helmets were not designed to prevent injuries[C]product labels would eventually be discarded[D]some sports games might lose popularity with athletes14. The author’s attitude towards the issue seems to be.[A]biased [B]indifferent [C]puzzling [D]objectivePassage 2In the first year or so of Web business, most of the action has revolved around efforts to tap the consumer market. More recently, as the Web proved to be more than a fashion, companies have started to buy and sell products and services with one another. Such business to business sales make sense because business people typically know what product they’re looking for.Nonetheless, many companies still hesitate to use the Web because of doubts about its reliability. “Businesses need to feel they can trust the pathway between them and the supplier,” says senior analyst Blane Erwin of Forrester Research. Some companies are limiting the risk by conducting online transactions only with established business partners who are given access to the company’s private intranet.Another major shift in the model for Internet commerce concerns the technology available for marketing. Unt il recently, Internet marketing activities have focused on strategies to “pull” customers into sites. In the past year, however, software companies have developed tools that allow companies to “push” information directly out to consumers, transmitting mark eting messages directly to targeted customers. Most notably, the Pointcast Network uses a screen saver to deliver a continually updated stream of news and advertisements to subscribers’ computer monitors. Subscribers can customize the information they want to receive and proceed directly to a company’s Web site. Companies such as Virtual Vineyards are already starting to use similar technologies to push messages to customers about special sales, product offerings, or other events. But push technology has earned the contempt of many Web users. Online culture thinks highly of the notion that the information flowing onto the screen comes there by specific request. Once commercial promotion begins to fill the screen uninvited, the distinction between the Web and television fades. That’s a prospect that horrifies Net purists.But it is hardly inevitable that companies on the Web will need to resort to push strategies to make money. The examples of Virtual Vineyards, Amazon .com, and other pioneers show that a Web site selling the right kind of products with the right mix of interactivity, hospitality, and security will attract online customers. And the cost of computing power continues to free fall, which is a good sign for any enterprise setting up shop in silicon. People looking back 5 or 10 years from now may well wonder why so few companies took the online plunge.15. We learn from the beginning of the passage that Web business.[A]has been striving to expand its market[B]intended to follow a fanciful fashion[C]tried but in vain to control the market[D]has been booming for one year or so16. Speaking of the online technology available for marketing, the author implies that.[A]the technology is popular with many Web users[B]businesses have faith in the reliability of online transactions[C]there is a radical change in strategy[D]it is accessible limitedly to established partners17. In the view of Net purists, .[A]there should be no marketing messages in online culture[B]money making should be given priority to on the Web[C]the Web should be able to function as the television set[D]there should be no online commercial information without requests18. We learn from the last paragraph that.[A]pushing information on the Web is essential to Internet commerce[B]interactivity, hospitality and security are important to online customers[C]leading companies began to take the online plunge decades ago[D]setting up shops in silicon is independent of the cost of computing powerPassage 3An invisible border divides those arguing for computers in the classroom on the behalf of students’ career prospects and those arguing for computers in the classroom for broader reasons of radical educational reform. Very few writers on the subject have explored this distinction—indeed, contradiction—which goes to the heart of what is wrong with the campaign to put computers in the classroom.An education that aims at getting a student a certain kind of job is a technical education, justified for reasons radically different from why education is universally required by law. It is not simply to raise everyone’s job prospects that all children are legally required to attend school into their teens. Rather, we have a certain conception of the American citizen, a character who is incomplete if he cannot competently assess how his livelihood and happiness are affected by things outside of himself. But this was not always the case; before it was legally required for all children to attend school until a certain age, it was widely accepted that some were just not equipped by nature to pursue this kind of education. With optimism characteristic of all industrialized countries, we came to accept that everyone is fit to be educated. Computer education advocates forsake this optimistic notion for a pessimism that betrays their otherwise cheery outlook. Banking on the confusion between educational and vocational reasons for bringing computers into schools, computered advocates often emphasize the job prospects of graduates over their educational achievement.There are some good arguments for a technical education given the right kind of student. Many European schools introduce the concept of professional training early on in order to make sure children are properly equipped for the professions they want to join. It is, however, presumptuous to insist that there will only be so many jobs for so many scientists, so many businessmen, so many accountants. Besides, this is unlikely to produce the needed number of every kind of professional in a country as large as ours and where the economy is spread over so many states and involves so many international corporations.But, for a small group of students, professional training might be the way to go since well developed skills, all other factors being equal, can be the difference between having a job and not. Of course, the basics of using any computer these days are very simple. It does not take a lifelong acquaintance to pick up various software programs. If one wanted to become a computer engineer, that is, of course, an entirely different story. Basic computer skills take—at the very longest—a couple of months to learn. In any case, basic computer skills are only complementary to the host of real skills that are necessary to becoming any kind of professional. It should be observed, of course, that no school, vocational or not, is helped by a confusion over its purpose.19. The author thinks the present rush to put computers in the classroom is.[A]far reaching [B]dubiously oriented[C]self contradictory [D]radically reformatory20. The belief that education is indispensable to all children.[A]is indicative of a pessimism in disguise[B]came into being along with the arrival of computers[C]is deeply rooted in the minds of computer ed advocates[D]originated from the optimistic attitude of industrialized countries21. It could be inferred from the passage that in the author’s country the European model of professional training is.[A]dependent upon the starting age of candidates[B]worth trying in various social sections[C]of little practical value[D]attractive to every kind of professional22. According to the author, basic computer skills should be.[A]included as an auxiliary course in school[B]highlighted in acquisition of professional qualifications[C]mastered through a life long course[D]equally emphasized by any school, vocational or otherwisePassage 4When a Scottish research team startled the world by revealing 3 months ago that it had cloned an adult sheep, President Clinton moved swiftly. Declaring that he was opposed to using this unusual animal husbandry technique to clone humans, he ordered that federal funds not be used for such an experiment—although no one had proposed to do so—and asked an independent panel of experts chaired by Princeton President Harold Shapiro to report back to the White House in 90 days with recommendations for a national policy on human cloning. That group—the National Bioethics Advisory Commission (NBAC)—has been working feverishly to put its wisdom on paper, and at a meeting on 17 May, members agreed on a near final draft of their recommendations.NBAC will ask that Clinton’s 90day ban on federal funds for human cloning be extended indefinitely, and possibly that it be made law. But NBAC members are planning to word the recommendation narrowly to avoid new restrictions on research that involves the cloning of human DNA or cells—routine in molecular biology. The panel has not yet reached agreement on a crucial question, however, whether to recommend legislation that would make it a crime for private funding to be used for human cloning.In a draft preface to the recommendations, discussed at the 17 May meeting, Shapiro suggested that the panel had found a broad consen sus that it would be “morally unacceptable to attempt to create a human child by adult nuclear cloning.” Shapiro explained during the meeting that the moral doubt stems mainly from fears about the risk to the health of the child. The panel then informally accepted several general conclusions, although some details have not been settled.NBAC plans to call for a continued ban on federal government funding for any attempt to clone body cell nuclei to create a child. Because current federal law already forbids the use of federal funds to create embryos (the earliest stage of human offspring before birth) for research or to knowingly endanger an embryo’s life, NBAC will remain silent on embryo research.NBAC members also indicated that they would appeal to privately funded researchers and clinics not to try to clone humans by body cell nuclear transfer. But they were divided on whetherto go further by calling for a federal law that would impose a complete ban on human cloning. Shapiro and most members favored an appeal for such legislation, but in a phone interview, he said this issue was still “up in the air”.23. We can learn from the first paragraph that.[A]federal funds have been used in a project to clone humans[B]the White House responded strongly to the news of cloning[C]NBAC was authorized to control the misuse of cloning technique[D]the White House has got the panel’s recommendations on cloning24. The panel agreed on all of the following except that.[A]the ban on federal funds for human cloning should be made a law[B]the cloning of human DNA is not to be put under more control[C]it is criminal to use private funding for human cloning[D]it would be against ethical values to clone a human being25. NBAC will leave the issue of embryo research undiscussed because.[A]embryo research is just a current development of cloning[B]the health of the child is not the main concern of embryo research[C]an embryo’s life will not be endangered in embryo research[D]the issue is explicitly stated and settled in the law26. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that.[A]some NBAC members hesitate to ban human cloning completely[B] a law banning human cloning is to be passed in no time[C]privately funded researchers will respond positively to NBAC’s appeal[D]the issue of human cloning will soon be settledPassage 5Science, in practice, depends far less on the experiments it prepares than on the preparedness of the minds of the men who watch the experiments. Sir Isaac Newton supposedly discovered gravity through the fall of an apple. Apples had been falling in many places for centuries and thousands of people had seen them fall. But Newton for years had been curious about the cause of the orbital motion of the moon and planets. What kept them in place? Why didn’t they fall out of the sky? The fact that the apple fell down toward the earth and not up into the tree answered the question he had been asking himself about those larger fruits of the heavens, the moon and the planets.How many men would have considered the possibility of an apple falling up into the tree? Newton did because he was not trying to predict anything. He was just wondering. His mind was ready for the unpredictable. Unpredictability is part of the essential nature of res earch. If you don’t have unpredictable things, you don’t have research. Scientists tend to forget this when writing their cut and dried reports for the technical journals, but history is filled with examples of it.In talking to some scientists, particularly younger ones, you might gather the impression that they find the “scientific method” a substitute for imaginative thought. I’ve attended research conferences where a scientist has been asked what he thinks about the advisability of continuing a certain experiment. The scientist has frowned, looked at the graphs, and said, “the data are still inconclusive.” “We know that,” the men from the budget office have said, “but what do you think?Is it worthwhile going on? What do you think we might expect?” The s cientist has been shocked at having even been asked to speculate.What this amounts to, of course, is that the scientist has become the victim of his own writings. He has put forward unquestioned claims so consistently that he not only believes them himself, but has convinced industrial and business management that they are true. If experiments are planned and carried out according to plan as faithfully as the reports in the science journals indicate, then it is perfectly logical for management to expect research to produce results measurable in dollars and cents. It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope. Nor, if regularity and conformity to a standard pattern are as desirable to the scientist as the writing of his papers would appear to reflect, is management to be blamed for discriminating against the “odd balls” among researchers in favor of more conventional thinkers who “work well with the team”.27. The author wants to prove with the example of Isaac Newton that.[A]inquiring minds are more important than scientific experiments[B]science advances when fruitful researches are conducted[C]scientists seldom forget the essential nature of research[D]unpredictability weighs less than prediction in scientific research28. The author asserts that scientists.[A]shouldn’t replace “scientific method”with imaginative thought[B]shouldn’t neglect to speculate on unpredictable things[C]should write more concise reports for technical journals[D]should be confident about their research findings29. It seems that some young scientists.[A]have a keen interest in prediction[B]often speculate on the future[C]think highly of creative thinking[D]stick to “scientific method”30. The author implies that the results of scientific research.[A]may not be as profitable as they are expected[B]can be measured in dollars and cents[C]rely on conformity to a standard pattern[D]are mostly underestimated by managementPart ⅢEnglish Chinese TranslationDirections:Read the following passage carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation must be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (15 points)31)While there are almost as many definitions of history as there are historians, modern practice most closely conforms to one that sees history as the attempt to recreate and explain the significant events of the past. Caught in the web of its own time and place, each generation of historians determines anew what is significant for it in the past. In this search the evidence found is always incomplete and scattered; it is also frequently partial or partisan. The irony of thehistorian’s craft is that its practitioners always know that their efforts are but contributions to an unending process.32)Interest in historical methods has arisen less through external challenge to the validity of history as an intellectual discipline and more from internal quarrels among historians themselves. While history once revered its affinity to literature and philosophy, the emerging social sciences seemed to afford greater opportunities for asking new questions and providing rewarding approaches to an understanding of the past. Social science methodologies had to be adapted to a discipline governed by the primacy of historical sources rather than the imperatives of the contemporary world. 33)During this transfer, traditional historical methods were augmented by additional methodologies designed to interpret the new forms of evidence in the historical study.Methodology is a term that remains inherently ambiguous in the historical profession. 34)There is no agreement whether methodology refers to the concepts peculiar to historical work in general or to the research techniques appropriate to the various branches of historical inquiry. Historians, especially those so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused of “tunnel method,” frequently fall victim to the “technical fallacy.” Also common in the natural sciences, the technicist fallacy mistakenly identifies the discipline as a whole with certain parts of its technical implementation.35)It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources, and to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.Section ⅣWriting(15 points)36.

参考范文Many people appreciate the conveniences of the city. With so many supermarkets, shopping malls and recreation facilities within easy reach, for example, city dwellers find it easy to enjoy themselves. Also, they are well-informed and have access to better education and better job opportunities. Besides, the city has better transportation service and health care. So, those who live in cities tend to have better sense of security.But country life is also attractive. With the fresh air, the green trees and the singing birds, country people are close to nature and live a quiet life. They can enjoy the peace and calmness of the pastoral environment there. They can easily make friends with the warmhearted and honestpeople there.Both the country and the city, however, have their own disadvantages. Cities are being tortured by many problems, such as heavy traffic and serious pollution. And urban citizens are often under pressure. As for rural inhabitants, they may find life far from being convenient, colorful or vigorous.As far as I'm concerned, I hate the hustle and bustle of the city. I like the peace and beauty of the country. As to the inconveniences, countryside in China is undergoing great changes, leaving more and more disadvantages behind. So, given the chance, I would prefer to live in the country.范文点评总体分析:由于从所给材料中较容易确定文章的层次和段落结构,所以,应该在表达上多下功夫。

America’s machine-tool industry was on the ropes. ⑧For a while it looked as though the making of semiconductors, which America had invented and which sat at the heart of the new computer age, was going to be the next casualty.①All of this caused a crisis of confidence. ②Americans stopped taking prosperity for granted. ③They beganto believe that their way of doing business was failing, and that their incomes would therefore shortly begin to fall as well. ④The mid-1980s brought one inquiry after another into the causes of America’s industrial decline. ⑤Their sometimes sensational findings were filled with warnings about the growing competition from overseas.①How things have changed! ②In 1995 the United States can look back on five years of solid growth while Japan has been struggling. ③(14)Few Americans attribute this solely to such obvious causes as a devalued dollar or the turning of the business cycle. ④Self-doubt has yielded to blind pride. ⑤“American industry has changed its structure, has gone on a diet, has learnt to be more quick-witted,”according to Richard Cavanaugh, executive dean of Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government. ⑥“It makes me proud to be an American just to see how our businesses are improving their productivity,”says Stephen Moore of the Cato Institute, a think-tank in Washington, DC. ⑦And William Sahlman of the Harvard Business School believes that people will look back on this period as “a golden age of business management in the United States.”[429 words]11. The U.S. achieved its predominance after World War II because.[A]it had made painstaking efforts towards this goal[B]its domestic market was eight times larger than before[C]the war had destroyed the economies of most potential competitors[D]the unparalleled size of its workforce had given an impetus to its economy12. The loss of U.S. predominance in the world economy in the 1980s is manifested in the fact that theAmerican.[A]TV industry had withdrawn to its domestic market[B]semiconductor industry had been taken over by foreign enterprises[C]machine-tool industry had collapsed after suicidal actions[D]auto industry had lost part of its domestic market13. What can be inferred from the passage?[A]It is human nature to shift between self-doubt and blind pride.[B]Intense competition may contribute to economic progress.[C]The revival of the economy depends on international cooperation.[D]A long history of success may pave the way for further development.14. The author seems to believe the revival of the U.S. economy in the 1990s can be attributed to the.[A]turning of the business cycle [B]restructuring of industry[C]improved business management [D]success in educationPassage 2①(15)Being a man has always been dangerous. ②There are about 105 males born for every 100 females, butthis ratio drops to near balance at the age of maturity, and among 70-year-olds there are twice as many women asmen. ③But the great universal of male mortality is being changed. ④Now, boy babies survive almost as well asgirls do. ⑤This means that, for the first time, there will be an excess of boys in those crucial years when they aresearching for a mate. ⑥More important, another chance for natural selection has been removed. ⑦Fifty years ago, the chance of a baby (particularly a boy baby) surviving depended on its weight. A kilogram too light or too heavy meant almost certain death. ⑧Today it makes almost no difference. Since much of the variation is due togenes, one more agent of evolution has gone.①There is another way to commit evolutionary suicide: stay alive, but have fewer children. ②Few people are as fertile as in the past. ③Except in some religious communities, very few women have 15 children. ④Nowadays the number of births, like the age of death, has become average. ⑤Most of us have roughly the same number of offspring. ⑥(16)Again, differences between people and the opportunity for natural selection to take advantage of it have diminished. ⑦India shows what is happening. The country offers wealth for a few in the great cities and poverty for the remaining tribal peoples. ⑧The grand mediocrity of today—everyone being the same in survival and number of offspring—means that natural selection has lost 80% of its power in upper-middle-class India compared to the tribes.For us, this means that evolution is over; the biological Utopia has arrived. ②Strangely, it has involved little physical change. ③No other species fills so many places in nature. ④But in the past 100, 000 years—even the past 100 years—our lives have been transformed but our bodies have not. ⑤(17)We did not evolve, because machines and society did it for us. ⑥Darwin had a phrase to describe those ignorant of evolution: they “look at an organic being as a savage looks at a ship, as at something wholly beyond his comprehension.”⑦No doubt we will remember a 20th century way of life beyond comprehension for its ugliness. But however amazed our descendants may be at how far from Utopia we were, they will look just like us.[406 words]15. What used to be the danger in being a man according to the first paragraph?[A]A lack of mates. [B]A fierce competition.[C]A lower survival rate. [D]A defective gene.16. What does the example of India illustrate?[A]Wealthy people tend to have fewer children than poor people.[B]Natural selection hardly works among the rich and the poor.[C]The middle class population is 80% smaller than that of the tribes.[D]India is one of the countries with a very high birth rate.17. The author argues that our bodies have stopped evolving because.[A]life has been improved by technological advance[B]the number of female babies has been declining[C]our species has reached the highest stage of evolution[D]the difference between wealth and poverty is disappearing18. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?[A]Sex Ratio Changes in Human Evolution.[B]Ways of Continuing Man’s Evolution.[C]The Evolutionary Future of Nature.[D]Human Evolution Going Nowhere.Passage 3①(20)When a new movement in art attains a certain fashion, it is advisable to find out what its advocates are aiming at, for, however farfetched and unreasonable their principles may seem today, it is possible that in years to come they may be regarded as normal. ②With regard to Futurist poetry, however, the case is rather difficult, for whatever Futurist poetry may be—even admitting that the theory on which it is based may be right—it can hardly be classed as Literature.①This, in brief, is what the Futurist says: for a century, past conditions of life have been conditionally speeding up, till now we live in a world of noise and violence and speed. ②Consequently, our feelings, thoughts and emotions have undergone a corresponding change. ③(21)This speeding up of life, says the Futurist, requires a new form of expression. ④We must speed up our literature too, if we want to interpret modern stress. ⑤We must pour out a large stream of essential words, unhampered by stops, or qualifying adjectives, or finite verbs. ⑥Instead of describing sounds we must make up words that imitate them; we must use many sizes of type and differentcolored inks on the same page, and shorten or lengthen words at will.①Certainly their descriptions of battles are confused. ②But it is a little upsetting to read in the explanatory notes that a certain line describes a fight between a Turkish and a Bulgarian officer on a bridge off which they both fall into the river —and then to find that the line consists of the noise of their falling and the weights of the officers:“Pluff! Pluff! A hundred and eighty-five kilograms.”①(22)This, though it fulfills the laws and requirements of Futurist poetry, can hardly be classed as Literature.②All the same, no thinking man can refuse to accept their first proposition: that a great change in our emotional life calls for a change of expression. ③The whole question is really this: have we essentially changed?[334 words]19. This passage is mainly.[A] a survey of new approaches to art[B] a review of Futurist poetry[C]about merits of the Futurist movement[D]about laws and requirements of literature20. When a novel literary idea appears, people should try to.[A]determine its purposes [B]ignore its flaws[C]follow the new fashions [D]accept the principles21. Futurists claim that we must.[A]increase the production of literature[B]use poetry to relieve modern stress[C]develop new modes of expression[D]avoid using adjectives and verbs22. The author believes that Futurist poetry is.[A]based on reasonable principles[B]new and acceptable to ordinary people[C]indicative of a basic change in human nature[D]more of a transient phenomenon than literaturePassage 4①(23)Aimlessness has hardly been typical of the postwar Japan whose productivity and social harmony are the envy of the United States and Europe. ②But increasingly the Japanese are seeing a decline of the traditional work-moral values. ③Ten years ago young people were hardworking and saw their jobs as their primary reason for being, but now Japan has largely fulfilled its economic needs, and young people don’t know where they should go next.①The coming of age of the postwar baby boom and an entry of women into the male-dominated job market have limited the opportunities of teen-agers who are already questioning the heavy personal sacrifices involved in climbing Japan’s rigid social ladder to good schools and jobs. ②In a recent survey, it was found that only 24.5 percent of Japanese students were fully satisfied with school life, compared with 67.2 percent of students in the United States. ③In addition, far more Japanese workers expressed dissatisfaction with their jobs than did their counterparts in the 10 other countries surveyed.①While often praised by foreigners for its emphasis on the basics, Japanese education tends to stress test taking and mechanical learning over creativity and self-expression. ②(25)“Those things that do not show up in the test scores—personality, ability, courage or humanity—are completely ignored,”says Toshiki Kaifu, chairman of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party’s education committee. ③“Frustration against this kind of thing leads kids to drop out and run wild.”④Last year Japan experienced 2,125 incidents of school violence, including 929 assaults on teachers. ⑤Amid the outcry, many conservative leaders are seeking a return to the prewar emphasis on moral education. ⑥Last year Mitsuo Setoyama, who was then education minister, raised eyebrows when he argued thatliberal reforms introduced by the American occupation authorities after World War II had weakened the “Japanese morality o f respect for parents.”①(26)But that may have more to do with Japanese life-styles. ②“In Japan,”says educator Y oko Muro, “it’s never a question of whether you enjoy your job and your life, but only how much you can endure.”③With economic growth has come centralization; fully 76 percent of Japan’s 119 million citizens live in cities where community and the extended family have been abandoned in favor of isolated, two-generation households. ④Urban Japanese have long endured lengthy commutes (travels to and from work) and crowded living conditions, but as the old group and family values weaken, the discomfort is beginning to tell. ⑤In the past decade, the Japanese divorce rate, while still well below that of the United States, has increased by more than 50 percent, and suicides have increased by nearly one-quarter.[447 words]23. In the Westerners’ eyes, the postwar Japan was.[A]under aimless development [B] a positive example[C] a rival to the West [D]on the decline24. According to the author, what may chiefly be responsible for the moral decline of Japanese society?[A]Women’s participation in social activities is limited.[B]More workers are dissatisfied with their jobs.[C]Excessive emphasis has been placed on the basics.[D]The life-style has been influenced by Western values.25. Which of the following is true according to the author?[A]Japanese education is praised for helping the young climb the social ladder.[B]Japanese education is characterized by mechanical learning as well as creativity.[C]More stress should be placed on the cultivation of creativity.[D]Dropping out leads to frustration against test taking.26. The change in Japanese life-style is revealed in the fact that.[A]the young are less tolerant of discomforts in life[B]the divorce rate in Japan exceeds that in the U.S.[C]the Japanese endure more than ever before[D]the Japanese appreciate their present lifePassage 5①(27)If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition—wealth, distinction, control over one’s destiny—must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambition’s behalf. ②If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared; and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them. ③(28)In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up on ambition as an ideal. ④What is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition—if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents. ⑤There is a heavy note of hypocrisy in this, a case of closing the barn door after the horses have escaped—with the educated themselves riding on them.①Certainly people do not seem less interested in success and its signs now than formerly. ②Summer homes, European travel, BMWs—the locations, place names and name brands may change, but such items do not seem less in demand today than a decade or two years ago.③(29)What has happened is that people cannot confess fully to their dreams, as easily and openly as once they could, lest they be thought pushing, acquisitive and vulgar. ④Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more than ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books who takes his meals in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools. ⑤For such people and many more perhaps not so exceptional, the proper formulation is, “Succeed at all costs but avoid appearing ambitious.”①The attacks on ambition are many and come from various angles; its public defenders are few andunimpressive, where they are not extremely unattractive. ②As a result, the support for ambition as a healthy impulse, a quality to be admired and fixed in the mind of the young, is probably lower than it has ever been in the United States. ③This does not mean that ambition is at an end, that people no longer feel its stirrings and promptings, but only that, no longer openly honored, it is less openly professed. ④Consequences follow from this, of course, some of which are that ambition is driven underground, or made sly. ⑤Such, then, is the way things stand: on the left angry critics, on the right stupid supporters, and in the middle, as usual, the majority of earnest people trying to get on in life. [431 words]27. It is generally believed that ambition may be well regarded if.[A]its returns well compensate for the sacrifices[B]it is rewarded with money, fame and power[C]its goals are spiritual rather than material[D]it is shared by the rich and the famous28. The last sentence of the first paragraph most probably implies that it is.[A]customary of the educated to discard ambition in words[B]too late to check ambition once it has been let out[C]dishonest to deny ambition after the fulfillment of the goal[D]impractical for the educated to enjoy benefits from ambition29. Some people do not openly admit they have ambition because.[A]they think of it as immoral[B]their pursuits are not fame or wealth[C]ambition is not closely related to material benefits[D]they do not want to appear greedy and contemptible30. From the last paragraph the conclusion can be drawn that ambition should be maintained.[A]secretly and vigorously [B]openly and enthusiastically[C]easily and momentarily [D]verbally and spirituallyPart ⅢEnglish-Chinese TranslationDirections:Read the following passage carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Y our translation must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (15 points)Governments throughout the world act on the assumption that the welfare of their people depends largely on the economic strength and wealth of the community. 31)Under modern conditions, this requires varying measures of centralized control and hence the help of specialized scientists such as economists and operational research experts. 32)Furthermore, it is obvious that the strength of a country’s economy is directly bound up with the efficiency of its agriculture and industry, and that this in turn rests upon the efforts of scientists and technologists of all kinds. It also means that governments are increasingly compelled to interfere in these sectors in order to step up production and ensure that it is utilized to the best advantage. For example, they may encourage research in various ways, including the setting up of their own research centers; they may alter the structure of education, or interfere in order to reduce the wastage of natural resources or tap resources hitherto unexploited; or they may cooperate directly in the growing number of international projects related to science, economics and industry. In any case, all such interventions are heavily dependent on scientific advice and also scientific and technological manpower of all kinds.33)Owing to the remarkable development in mass-communications, people everywhere are feeling new wants and are being exposed to new customs and ideas, while governments are often forced to introduce still furtherinnovations for the reasons given above. At the same time, the normal rate of social change throughout the world is taking place at a vastly accelerated speed compared with the past. For example, 34)in the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization—with all the far-reaching changes in social patterns that followed—was spread over nearly a century, whereas nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so. All this has the effect of building up unusual pressures and tensions within the community and consequently presents serious problems for the governments concerned. 35)Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements—themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport. As a result of all these factors, governments are becoming increasingly dependent on biologists and social scientists for planning the appropriate programs and putting them into effect.

从别人身上学习优点As is vividly depicted in the picture, an thought-provoking idea that it is impossible for a person to learn nothing from any one hit upon the old man.Simple as the drawing is, the symbolic meaning is as deep as ocean. As a matter of fact, everyone has the merits and advantages superior than other people as well as drawbacks and disadvantages inferior than others. With the rapid developing society and economy, the fact remains that it is indispensable for anyone who wants to gain success to take full use of strongpoint, and more significantly, to learn from models from all walks of life and rectify our fault and shortcoming. Just as an provailing proverb says, ”two heads is always better than one”. On the whole, we can draw the conclusion that were there no the quality of learning from others, never would we both improve our ability and edify our sentiment.Accordingly, it is imperative for us to take some measures to advocate this virtue in our society. On the one hand, the government should constitute some policies to publicize the socialistic core value system to change for better. On the other hand, individuals in our society should be educated to cultivate this virtue by means of discovering and learning merits from other people around our surrounding. Only in this way can we achieve success at work and only in this way can we witness the ideal scene in which all members in our society live in an active and harmonious circumstance.保护传统文化There has been a heated discussion in the newspaper. As is vividly revealed in the photogragh, holding a piece of delicate and beautiful paper-cut of a lantern, the foreign man showed his great interest in traditional Chinese culture to others. Obviously, instead of being outdated, people in mounting numbers have been impressed by traditional Chinese culture in recent years.Simple as the picture is, the symbolic meaning is as deep as ocean. To begin with, the past decade has witnessed a huge development in economy in our country. Owing to the growth of our national economy and opening door policy, China faces the culture exchange with the outside world. An increasing number of foreign visitors from the whole world have been attracted by such Chinese folk art as paper-cut and china. On the other hand, for China, as for any other rapidly developing countries, however, there exists an extremely severe threat to age-old customs and traditions in the shadows of modernization. If paper-cut and china ever perished from the earth, it would be a tragedy of an immeasurable proportions for us.As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that preserving our traditional Chinese culture is of great significance to improve the soft power of our country. We should put great emphasis on protecting our traditional culture, despite bringing hope and pain at the same time. With a series of proper regulations concerning the protection of traditional heritage of our humanity being carried out, the future of our traditional Chinese culture will surely see an prosperity.下一代教育问题The future generation has never failed to arouse the extensive attention of the public. As is subtly portrayed in this funny drawing, a pair of parents, holding abucket and a mop, are following their son unpleasantly on his way to school. What the boy says illustrates that the duty of doing the cleaning at school will be finished by his parents. Obviously, it is extremely unbelievable that the parents has spoiled their son to this point.Absurd and odd as it is, the connotation inside the picture is as deep as ocean. As a consequence of family planning policy being carried out since the 1980s in China, families in mounting numbers feed only one child, who are dubbed as so called ”little emperor” or ”little princess”, which epitomizes the laziness and greed (self-indulgence)of these children. This phenomenon has triggered a devastating and unforeseeable influence on our society that our future generation might be unable to live independently. According to the latest schedule of the United Nation, the ability to live on their own of China’s primary school students ranks in the latter half when compared with other major countries. Overprotection by parents is nothing but a damage to the responsibility and sentiment of children. Were the tendency to continue, China will be bound to suffer great losses in the future competition with foreign countries.Accordingly, taking the severe effects of spoiling children into account, we must propagate the idea that hardly can delicate flowers under protection survive the intense competition in the outside world. Many experts have emphasized the significance of cultivate children’s ability to live on their own. That is a critical factor for the development of children in the future.实践的重要性As is symbolically illustrated in the cartoon above, on the ground stands a wandering man, with his hands in the pockets of his pants, looking at the ladder which leads to success. Quite regrettably, the idea of climbing the ladder up to achieve success has never occurred to him. The caption indicates that people like the man in the given cartoon will never achieve success.Simple as the picture is, what the cartoonist conveys to us is as deep as ocean. Of all the components of success, action seems to be hardest within our control. On the one hand, everyone in the world is eager for success, although it is indispensable to contribute much energy to the goals we aspire. As the competition in the real world is getting extremely intense, hardly can anyone perform his tasks or achieve his goals successfully without authentic action. On the other hand, the fact remains that there exists a majority of people who always shrink in front of difficulties. Being afraid of difficulties, they usually put hard work on the talk level and come up with some excuses to avoid hard work.As an old proverb put it, “all talk and no action is useless”. People in mounting numbers, however, have got defeated when encountered real hardship. Were the situation to continue, never would they taste the joy and happiness after conquering setbacks and gaining victory. It is imperative for us to publicize the opinion that hard work and action is nothing but a stepping-stone rather than a stumbling-block in the way towards success. Only in the way of daring to face difficulties in the process of accomplishing tasks can we concrete a more active world and can each member enjoy the happiness of success.The picture above has induced a heated discussion concerning the problem of taking care of senior citizens. As is subtly revealed in the cartoon, sitting in the chair in front of a mirror, an old lady is talking to her own image in the mirror to relieve the loneliness of being alone at home. Just as she says, ”my son is at work and my grandchild is at school, I feel a bit of lonely and boring.”Obviously, with a huge development in economy within the past decade, our society has entered the era of the so-called ”aging society”. It is an irreversible trend for us that a growing number of members have become old and entered an old age. As a consequence of having no one to talk to at home, large numbers of senior citizens have been suffering the loss of sense of security, identity and confidence, which is the so-called empty-nest syndrome. It is likely to constitute an unforeseeable and formidable problem to them owing to the lack of care from their relatives.Accordingly, taking the severe problem in our society into account, it is high time that we propagated the virtue of taking care of the old people. Many philosophies from Confucianism and Taoism in the traditional Chinese culture have emphasized the significance of taking care of the old people and reckoned it as a traditional Chinese virtue. That is to say, traditional Chinese values definitely goes hand in hand with the modernization of our country. If continue to inherit the valuable virtue of respecting and taking care of the senior citizens nicely, we will witness a more harmonious world. That is where taking care of senior citizens comes in.青少年教育不攀比As is vividly illustrated in the cartoon, surrounded by a crowd of admiring primary students at the school, a little boy is proudly showing his famous brand shoes of the latest style. Obviously, it is unbelievable that these children concentrate more on material comforts than the ability of learning.Simple as it is, the symbolic connotation is as deep as ocean. Families in mounting numbers have been becoming affluent in economy in recent years owing to the rapid development in our country. At the same time, parents usually inclined to give their children ample material conditions such as funny toys, expensive clothing, tasty food and so forth, thus gradually spoiling the future generation and preventing them from leading an independent life. Quite regrettably, the abundance of material comforts does not correlate with the rise of ability of learning and living. Hence, this phenomenon has triggered a severe damage to both our society and these children. Were the tendency to continue, our society would pay a high price to learn a lesson from it.As far as I’m concerned, it will cause intense turbulence in our country if we feed our future generation in such an indulgent way. In coping with the awful phenomenon, we should put the idea of striving for advancement in the process of learning rather than comparing material conditions at the core of the theory of our education. The time we educate our children in a more rational way is the time that we can surely believe that the future of our country is to change for better.The picture above has caused a heated discussion about self-confidence. As is subtly depicted in the given image, in front of a mirror stands a lovely cat, firmly believing that it is as strong as a lion. Obviously, it is confidence that makes it possible for the cat to reckon itself better than anyone else.Funny and exaggerated as the picture is, the symbolic connotation is thought-provoking. As a consequence of the rapid developing economic globalization, every individual are bound to encounter a variety of difficulties and problems, which are so tough that hardly can we conquer them. It is essential that self-confidence should be put at the core part in our mind. Just as a proverb puts it, when we face troubles and handicaps, however, “the final enemy is ourselves.” As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that self-confidence is the unexhausted source of our energy, our intelligence and our convincing power towards success. It is self-confidence which support us unwaveringly in the process of achieving success in all walks of life. That is where self-confidence comes in.In my view, facing a great number of difficulties and handicaps, we should bear in mind that self-confidence will definitely leads us to success. Everyone in our society should have the sense of self-confidence. Any trouble is nothing but a fake monster. Once we recognize its essence and acquire self-confidence, it will only be a matter of time before the victory becomes true.合作As is subtly revealed in the given portrayal above, with several big boxes in his hands, hardly can the young man carries them safely, which is defined as an addition effect. When he cooperates with another person by means of using a wooden board, they can easily carry large numbers of boxes which is 5 times than that one person can carry. Conversely, it is revealed as a multiplication effect. Obviously, it is cooperation that makes it possible for them to carry so many boxes without exhausting too much energy.Simple as the picture is, the purpose of the painter shows that teamwork is of great significance when we handle a variety of troubles and problems. With the rapid growth of economy and society, competition is becoming increasingly fierce. It is impossible for anyone to achieve success without teamwork and cooperation with others. Hence, people in mounting numbers put great emphasis on teamwork. As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that cooperation with copartners through all kinds of methods is one of the most essential qualification that anyone who wants to achieve success should possess. Placing cooperation in the core part of our mind can be justified on the grounds that it fits nicely with the theory of traditional Chinese culture.Accordingly, many philosophies from Confucianism and Taoism in traditional Chinese culture have emphasized the need to maintain a cooperative relationship with others. The competition being so serious, it is high time that a series of rules and regulations were worked out to encourage cooperation in the modern life. Everyone should acquire the ability of teamwork.

The easy access of private information to anyone, however, attaches a vicious face to the Internet in the shadow of its merits. Obviously, personal information security has gradually become a rather devastating problem hindering the rapid development of the Internet.文化交流As is vividly portrayed in the given cartoon above, carrying The Analects of Confucius, two westerners are applying the opportunities to become the students of Confucius, who is naturally associated with the traditional Chinese culture.

2024张剑考研英语阅读80篇
2024张剑考研英语阅读80篇全文共6篇示例,供读者参考篇1Hi everyone! My name is Zhang Jian and I'm in 5th grade. Last year, my cousin Zhang Ming took the big exam to get into graduate school. He studied really hard and read a ton of long reading passages to prepare. I got to look at some of the passages he read and they were sooooo boring for a kid like me! All those big words and serious topics made my head spin.But you know what? I had a great idea! What if I rewrote those dry, grown-up reading passages in a way that would be way more fun and interesting for kids? That's exactly what I did! I took 80 of the reading passages my cousin had to study and reimagined them from a kid's point of view. Get ready for some awesome tales!The first one is all about these tiny creatures called atoms. Now, instead of just describing what atoms are made of, I came up with a story about the Atom Family. Mr. Atom is the dad, Mrs. Atom is the mom, and their kids are the protons, neutrons, and electrons. They all live together in Atomville, but the electronkids have to orbit the house instead of staying inside. One day, little Electron Elle gets too curious and ventures too far from Atomville. She has to go on an epic journey to find her way back home!Another passage was about the history of medieval Europe. Yawn, right? Not in my version! I turned it into an adventure story starring Connor the Brave, a pint-sized knight who has to save his kingdom from the evil Sir Boredom. There are duels, giants, wizards, and even a fire-breathing dragon named Henry! Now that's what I call one exciting reading assignment.The economics passage about supply and demand? That became the tale of Dylan's Lemonade Empire. Dylan loves lemonade, but there's never enough to go around in the neighborhood. So he gets this genius idea to start selling lemonade to his friends. As more people want his lemonade, he has to raise the price. But then his buddy Chloe decides to open her own lemonade stand across the street, and the battle is on!I rewrote passages about ancient civilizations, environmental science, famous inventors, you name it! The Indian epic the Mahabharata is now an epic battle between two groups of superhero kids. Climate change became a story about how the Weatherman family has to work together to control all the crazyweather patterns happening in their home. Even dense philosophy stuff got transformed into stories about questioning reality and seeing the world through new perspectives.My personal favorite might be the one based on a passage about the French Revolution. I turned it into a food fight story where the hungry poor kids lead a revolt against the rich kids who hog all the good snacks for themselves at lunchtime. The leader, Marianne, catches the rotten tomato that kickstarts the entire food fight revolution. There's a ton of ketchup and hopefully no guillotines!Just wait until you read my alien invasion story based on a passage about astronomy. Or the one where the internet itself becomes self-aware and has to be appeased with more cat videos. There's even a hilarious escapade about a science experiment gone wrong that turns the whole school into monsters for a day!With zingy titles like "The Popsicle Stick Battle of 1982" and "The Day I Accidentally Blew Up the Science Lab," these reading passages are a billion times more fun and engaging than the stuffy originals. My reimagined versions are filled with humor, adventure, and crazy tales that will have you laughing out loud and staying hooked from start to finish.I worked really hard to make these reading assignments as awesome and entertaining as possible, all while keeping the core facts and knowledge from the original passages intact. Because learning is way more fun when you use your imagination and have a rip-roaring good time, don't you think?So that's my take on those grad school reading passages. If you happen to know someone prepping for those big exams, tell them to read my kid-friendly versions instead. They'll learn just as much, but with 100% more chuckles and thrills! Happy reading, everyone!篇2My Big Brother's Crazy Gaokao English PassagesHi friends! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 8 years old. I'm in 2nd grade at Sunshine Elementary School here in Beijing. My big brother Daming is 18 and he's getting ready to take the crazy big test called the Gaokao this year. The Gaokao is like the hugest, most important test ever for kids in China who want to go to university. Daming has been studying super duper hard, especially for the English part.You see, the English reading part of the Gaokao is no joke! Daming showed me some practice passages he's been workingon and oh man, they are written in such fancy, big-people words. The passages are all about really serious topics like science, history, culture, and global issues. Nothing fun like video games or cartoons! My brother says he has to read 80 loooong passages, then answer questions that test if he really understood all the difficult vocabulary and concepts. Yikes!Some of the passages Daming read to me were about super complex things I can barely wrap my little 8-year-old brain around. Like one was explaining the philosophical theories of this old Greek guy named Aristotle and his ideas about virtue ethics. What even is virtue ethics?? Sounds like a kind of weird vegetable to me. Another crazy passage broke down the geopolitical tensions in the South China Sea and the territorial disputes between multiple countries there. How is an18-year-old kid supposed to understand territorial disputes? I can barely share my toys properly with my little sister!Then there was this one passage all about the evolution of whales and how their ancient ancestors used to live on land millions of years ago. It used sooo many big science words describing fossils and evolutionary biology concepts. Thank goodness there were pictures of whale skeletons because I was lost just trying to make sense of sentences like "Theremobilization of calcified dental batteries in Archaeoceti facilitated fossilized evidence of low-crowned molars and occluding winged incisors." Huh??My personal favorite though was the passage explaining the underlying principles of astrophysics and theories about dark matter and dark energy making up most of the totalmass-energy content of the universe. Because you know, completely normal stuff that any regular Chinese teenager totally understands, right? The sentences were crazy long with dozens of massive vocabulary words all smushed together. I kept getting distracted thinking about what a black hole might taste like if you made it into a lollipop flavor. Definitely not blackberry, that's for sure!Daming says the reading passages actually get harder and weirder every year as the test writers try to make them as confusing and complicated as humanly possible. Next year's passages will probably be about things like "Deconstructing Marxist Theoretical Approaches to Literary Criticism" or "Genomic Expression Profiling of Hematopoietic Stem Cell Subspecies." I don't even know what most of those words mean!! How do they expect kids like Daming to comprehend such heady,academic topics written at a university level?? No wonder he has been stressing so hard.I sure am glad I'm still just a young kid and don't have to deal with anything remotely as intense as the Gaokao English reading for many more years. Gives me a headache just thinking about it! I'll stick to my easy-reader books about curious monkeys and talking trucks, thank you very much. Wishing my poor brother the best of luck making sense of all thosebrain-melting English passages. The Gaokao seriously sounds like a nightmare! I'll just be over here eating snacks and watching cartoons instead.篇3Studying for the Big English TestHi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. This year, I'm going to tell you all about getting ready for the huge English reading test that my big sister Janie has to take. It's called the 2024 Graduate English Exam and it has 80 really long passages that she has to read and answer questions about. That's a lot of reading!Janie is 22 years old and she's trying to get into a great university to study science. She has to take this big test to showthe university that she can read long, difficult articles in English. I don't know why they make it so hard! Reading is already pretty tricky in my opinion.My sister has been studying like crazy for months now. She brings home stacks of books and practice tests from the library and sits at her desk for hours every night, reading passage after passage. Sometimes she reads OUT LOUD to practice, which makes it really hard for me to watch TV in the living room! I have to keep turning up the volume.Janie says the passages can be about all sorts of topics - science, history, arts and culture, you name it. She has to be an expert reader on every subject! Some of the passages look incredibly boring, like they're about economic policies or United Nations bylaws. I don't know how she gets through those without falling asleep. Other passages seem more interesting, like they're about discoveries in space or ancient civilizations.No matter what the topic is though, the passages are all crazy long. Like I said, there are 80 total passages and Janie says most of them are around 800-1000 words each! That's like reading 80 short stories or articles from a newspaper or magazine. My teacher makes us read one short passage a night for homework, and I can barely make it through those.After reading each loooong passage, Janie has to answer several multiple choice questions about the main ideas, details, vocabulary, and author's purpose or tone. The questions are designed to be really tricky so you have to understand the passage inside and out. Janie says the reading section takes almost 4 hours to complete! My hand would fall off after writing that much.I've watched Janie practice over and over, reading the passages and answering the questions. She has to use a special pencil to fill in her answer sheet because it's graded by a computer. No messing that up! Sometimes she talks out loud to herself, summarizing each paragraph as she goes. Other times she is as quiet as a mouse, concentrating really hard. I try to be quiet during those times so I don't disturb her.It looks sooooo hard and I don't know how she does it. Janie says the test is important because universities want students who can understand academic English at a very high level. She has to get a good score to get into her dream school. No pressure, right?!Personally, I'm glad I'm just a 5th grader and I don't have to worry about any of that yet. Give me a couple picture books over those door-stopper reading passages any day! But I reallyadmire how dedicated and hardworking my sister is. She has spent sooo many hours prepping and I'm rooting for her to ace that test. She is my hero for tackling something so huge and difficult.Well, wish Janie luck for me! The test is coming up soon in just a couple more months. I'll keep doing my best to run errands and help out around the house so she can spend as much time studying as possible. Hopefully all that practice pays off and she blows that reading section out of the water! Then we can have a huge celebration. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you, Sis!篇4My 2024 GRE Reading Prep: 80 Awesome Passages!Hey guys! I'm super excited to share with you all the fun reading passages I've been practicing for the 2024 GRE exam. My big brother is applying to grad school next year, so I've been helping him get ready. At first, I thought the readings would be super boring, but they're actually pretty cool!Let me tell you about some of my favorites so far. There were these really neat passages all about different animals' habitats and migration patterns. I loved learning how emperor penguins huddle together for warmth in the freezing Antarctic winters.And did you know that Arctic terns fly from the Arctic to the Antarctic and back again every year? That's like going all the way around the world twice! Mind-blowing, right?Then there were these rad passages on ancient civilizations. I got to read all about the super advanced Mayans and their incredible pyramids, calendars and mathematics. There was even one passage on the mysterious Nazca Lines in Peru - those huge ancient designs you can only see properly from way up in the air. Nobody really knows for sure why they were made, but people have some fascinating theories!I also really enjoyed the passages on famous inventors and scientists throughout history. You guys have probably heard of Albert Einstein, but did you know he came up with his famous ideas about relativity when he was just a young patent clerk? There were great passages on other geniuses too, like Marie Curie, the first woman to win a Nobel Prize. She discovered radioactivity along with her husband, which led to major breakthroughs in fields like medicine. Such an inspiration!Probably my favorite set of passages focused on different cultures around the world. I felt like I got to travel to all these amazing places without even leaving my room! The vibrant festivals in India and Mexico sounded like a blast. And thepassage on the indigenous cultures of the Amazon rainforest - learning about their intimate connection with nature and traditional ways of life - made me want to become an anthropologist when I grow up.There were so many other fascinating topics covered too: technological innovations, artworks and literature, social and political issues, psychological studies, you name it. My brain seriously felt like it grew three sizes from all the knowledge I was soaking up!I won't spoil all the rest for you, but trust me, these 80 reading passages were a non-stop thrill ride of learning and discovery. I can't wait for my brother to take the actual GRE so I can read even more engaging passages in new topics. Who knew studying could be this much fun?Alright friends, that's all from me for now. Let me know if you have any other questions about my 2024 GRE reading adventures. I'll catch you later - happy reading!篇52024 Zhangjian Consideration English Reading 80 ArticlesHi everyone! My name is Lily and I'm 10 years old. I really like reading, especially in English. This year, my brother Zhangjian is studying super hard to get into a great university. He has to take this big important test called the consideration. Part of it is reading 80 really long articles in English! That's a ton of reading. I feel bad for him having to read soooo many boring adult articles. They're probably all about boring grown-up stuff like politics, economics, and philosophy. No fun at all!If I had to read 80 articles for a test, I would want them to be way more interesting and fun. Like maybe an article about a dog that saved a family from a fire. Or one about kids who discovered buried treasure in their backyard. Ooh or maybe an article about a school for wizards like in Harry Potter! Now those would be articles I'd actually want to read. Wouldn't that be awesome?Grown-ups always make everything so serious and no fun. Like I bet none of the 80 articles have any jokes, comics, or funny pictures in them. If I wrote the articles, I would definitely put in some silly jokes to make my brother laugh when he's studying. And lots of colorful pictures too to make it more exciting to read. Everybody knows pictures make reading way more fun.Speaking of pictures, maybe there could be an article with photographs of adorable baby animals! How could anyone notlove reading about tiny kittens, puppies, and baby ducks? Or wait, even better - an article about kids who get to go to a petting zoo and play with baby animals allll day long. Now that's an article I would never get bored reading.Ooh ooh, or what about articles that are like real-life adventures? Like one about explorers who discovered a frozen woolly mammoth! Or deep-sea divers who stumbled upon an ancient shipwreck filled with treasures. Or even astronauts who traveled to Mars! Now those would be amazing articles that would make reading super exciting. Wayyy better than boring old politics and economics, that's for sure.In an ideal world, all 80 of those articles would be about fun stuff like that. But I know that's just a kid dreaming. Well, a girl can hope, right? At the very least there should be some cool science articles in there about dinosaurs, outer space, or teeny tiny insects. Stuff that's actually interesting to learn about! Not just a bunch of dry, dense writing about taxes or government policies and regulations. Yuck, no thanks!Honestly though, I feel realllly bad for my brother having to read all those probably super boring grown-up articles. Reading that much would make any kid's brain fall asleep! He must be so mentally exhausted after reading for hours every single day. I'llhave to make sure to play some fun games with him when he needs study breaks to get his mind off it all.Well, I guess that's just part of the deal to try to get into a good school these days. Lots ofHard work and suffering through reading tons of dry, uninteresting articles. I'm just glad I'm not at that stage yet! For now, I'm sticking to my beloved magic treehouse books, Dogman comics, and amusing articles about cute animals. Much more my speed!Anyway, I really really hope there's at least a few fun articles mixed in with all the dull ones my brother has to read. And I'll keep my fingers crossed that next year, they mix it up with some more engaging, imaginative topics a kid could actually get excited about reading. But hey, maybe I'm just an unusual10-year-old who loves reading more than the average bear. More power to me!Okay, that's all from me! Time for this little bookworm to go read some more. Laters!篇62024 Grad School English Reading - An Elementary Kid's ViewHey there friends! Jack here, just a regular 3rd grader who loves reading, writing, and using my imagination. My teacher Mrs. Martin always says I have a "lively curiosity" about the world around me. I'm not sure exactly what that means, but I think it's a good thing!Anyway, I was asked to share my thoughts on the English reading passages that students applying to graduate school will have to tackle in 2024. At first I was like "Huh? I'm just a kid - what do I know about grad school stuff?" But then I remembered how much I enjoy diving into new topics through books and stories. So I said "Why not? This could be fun!"From what I understand, the reading sections on these tests are no joke. The passages are super long and packed with complicated words/ideas about history, science, literature, and more. Just thinking about sitting still that long to read makes my legs feel antsy! But I'd definitely give it my best effort.I have a few strategies that might help grad students get through those intense reading assignments. First off, I'd remind myself that reading is an adventure. Opening a book lets you explore new worlds and learn amazing things. How exciting is that?! Whenever I get tired of reading, I try to picture myselfjourneying through the story's setting and meeting its characters. It makes the experience way more engaging.My next tip is to pay extra-close attention when reading descriptive details and examples. Those little nuggets of information help me understand the main ideas waaaay better than just blazing through each paragraph. I really have to concentrate though, because my mind can start wandering pretty easily. Maybe some quiet background music would help grad students stay focused?Finally, I never hesitate to re-read sections that confuse me at first. There's no prize for finishing quickly - comprehending the material is what matters most. I actually make a game of it sometimes, challenging myself to explain each complicated concept in simple kid words. It definitely enhances my reading comprehension!Overall, I think the 2024 English reading tests will be really hard for grad applicants. But you know what? Kids deal with challenging stuff all the time too. Learning to read itself was no cakewalk when we were just starting out! If youngsters can get the hang of it through patience and practice, I'm confident older students can as well. Just approach it with an open, curious mindset like Mrs. Martin always tells me.Well, those are my elementary-aged thoughts on those huge reading assignments coming up. Hopefully some of my silly suggestions provide a fresh perspective! I'll be cheering you grown-ups on as you work towards your grad degrees. You've got this!Okay, time for this kid to go play outside. Reading is awesome, but balanced lifestyles are important too. Thanks for letting me share, and happy studying, future scholars!。

一、真题小作文2011[张剑老师文章]Dear Xiao Ping,How are things with you?I watched the film“2012”on DVD yesterday and found it a wonderful film.I strongly recommend it to you.The film is about an ancient prophesy which forecasts the end of the world in the year2012. Several ancient civilizations,such as Jewish and Mayan,have foretold the disaster and therefore made the story look rather believable.But the film is less an adaptation of the prophesy than a story of escape from the disaster.The film explores the complicated behaviors of people confronted with death and asks a soul-searching question about human nature:Is there altruism or complete selflessness when people face the final moment of one’s life?I find the film one of the best movies produced by Hollywood in recent years.I wish you would not work too hard in your study and would find time to relax and enjoy films from time to time.Sincerely yoursLi Ming [语言亮点]1.wonderful a.精彩的2.forecast/foretold v.预言3.believable a.可信的4.less A than B不是A而是B5.adaptation n.改编6.explore v.探究7.soul-searching a.令人深思的[思路解析]第一段:首先用How are things with you?寒暄,接着写明写信的目的:看了一部很好的电影,推荐给对方。

张剑考研英语作文背诵篇一:张剑考研英语黄宝书作文扩充模板从别人身上学习优点As is vividly depicted in the picture, an thought-provoking idea that it is impossible for a person to learn nothing from any one hit upon the old man.Simple as the drawing is, the symbolic meaning is as deep as ocean. As a matter of fact, everyone has the merits and advantages superior than other people as well as drawbacks and disadvantages inferior than others. With the rapid developing society and economy, the fact remains that it is indispensable for anyone who wants to gain success to take full use of strongpoint, and more significantly, to learn from models from all walks of life and rectify our fault and shortcoming. Just as an provailing proverb says, ”two heads is always better than one”. On the whole, we can draw the conclusion that were there no the quality of learning from others, never would we both improve our ability and edify our sentiment. Accordingly, it is imperative for us to take some measures to advocate this virtue in our society. On the one hand, the government should constitute some policies to publicize thesocialistic core value system to change for better. On the other hand, individuals in our society should be educated to cultivate this virtue by means of discovering and learning merits from other people around our surrounding. Only in this way can we achieve success at work and only in this way can we witness the ideal scene in which all members in our society live in an active and harmonious circumstance.保护传统文化There has been a heated discussion in the newspaper. As is vividly revealed in the photogragh, holding a piece of delicate and beautiful paper-cut of a lantern, the foreign man showed his great interest in traditional Chinese culture to others. Obviously, instead of being outdated, people in mounting numbers have been impressed by traditional Chinese culture in recent years.Simple as the picture is, the symbolic meaning is as deep as ocean. To begin with, the past decade has witnessed a huge development in economy in our country. Owing to the growth of our national economy and opening door policy, China faces the culture exchange with the outside world. An increasing number of foreign visitors from the whole world have been attracted by such Chinese folk art as paper-cut and china. On the other hand, for China, as for any other rapidly developing countries, however, there exists anextremely severe threat to age-old customs and traditions in the shadows of modernization. If paper-cut and china ever perished from the earth, it would be a tragedy of an immeasurable proportions for us.As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that preserving our traditional Chinese culture is of great significance to improve the soft power of our country. We should put great emphasis on protecting our traditional culture, despite bringing hope and pain at the same time. With a series of proper regulations concerning the protection of traditional heritage of our humanity being carried out, the future of our traditional Chinese culture will surely see an prosperity.下一代教育问题The future generation has never failed to arouse the extensive attention of the public. As is subtly portrayed in this funny drawing, a pair of parents, holding abucket and a mop, are following their son unpleasantly on his way to school. What the boy says illustrates that the duty of doing the cleaning at school will be finished by his parents. Obviously, it is extremely unbelievable that the parents has spoiled their son to this point.Absurd and odd as it is, the connotation inside the picture is asdeep as ocean. As a consequence of family planning policy being carried out since the 1980s in China, families in mounting numbers feed only one child, who are dubbed as so called ”little emperor”or ”little princess”, which epitomizes the laziness and greed (self-indulgence)of these children. This phenomenon has triggered a devastating and unforeseeable influence on our society that our future generation might be unable to live independently. According to the latest schedule of the United Nation, the ability to live on their own of China’s primary school students ranks in the latter half when compared with other major countries. Overprotection by parents is nothing but a damage to the responsibility and sentiment of children. Were the tendency to continue, China will be bound to suffer great losses in the future competition with foreign countries.Accordingly, taking the severe effects of spoiling children into account, we must propagate the idea that hardly can delicate flowers under protection survive the intense competition in the outside world. Many experts have emphasized the significance of cultivate children’s ability to live on their own. That is a critical factor for the development of children in the future.实践的重要性As is symbolically illustrated in the cartoon above, on the groundstands a wandering man, with his hands in the pockets of his pants, looking at the ladder which leads to success. Quite regrettably, the idea of climbing the ladder up to achieve success has never occurred to him. The caption indicates that people like the man in the given cartoon will never achieve success.Simple as the picture is, what the cartoonist conveys to us is as deep as ocean. Of all the components of success, action seems to be hardest within our control. On the one hand, everyone in the world is eager for success, although it is indispensable to contribute much energy to the goals we aspire. As the competition in the real world is getting extremely intense, hardly can anyone perform his tasks or achieve his goals successfully without authentic action. On the other hand, the fact remains that there exists a majority of people who always shrink in front of difficulties. Being afraid of difficulties, they usually put hard work on the talk level and come up with some excuses to avoid hard work.As an old proverb put it, “all talk and no action is useless”. People in mounting numbers, however, have got defeated when encountered real hardship. Were the situation to continue, never would they taste the joy and happiness after conquering setbacks and gaining victory. It is imperative for us to publicize the opinion that hard work and action is nothing but a stepping-stone ratherthan a stumbling-block in the way towards success. Only in the way of daring to face difficulties in the process of accomplishing tasks can we concrete a more active world and can each member enjoy the happiness of success.The picture above has induced a heated discussion concerning the problem of taking care of senior citizens. As is subtly revealed in the cartoon, sitting in the chair in front of a mirror, an old lady is talking to her own image in the mirror to relieve the loneliness of being alone at home. Just as she says, ”my son is at work and my grandchild is at school, I feel a bit of lonely and boring.”Obviously, with a huge development in economy within the past decade, our society has entered the era of the so-called ”aging society”. It is an irreversible trend for us that a growing number of members have become old and entered an old age. As a consequence of having no one to talk to at home, large numbers of senior citizens have been suffering the loss of sense of security, identity and confidence, which is the so-called empty-nest syndrome. It is likely to constitute an unforeseeable and formidable problem to them owing to the lack of care from their relatives. Accordingly, taking the severe problem in our society into account, it is high time that we propagated the virtue of taking care of the old people. Many philosophies from Confucianism and Taoism inthe traditional Chinese culture have emphasized the significance of taking care of the old people and reckoned it as a traditional Chinese virtue. That is to say, traditional Chinese values definitely goes hand in hand with the modernization of our country. If continue to inherit the valuable virtue of respecting and taking care of the senior citizens nicely, we will witness a more harmonious world. That is where taking care of senior citizens comes in.青少年教育不攀比As is vividly illustrated in the cartoon, surrounded by a crowd of admiring primary students at the school, a little boy is proudly showing his famous brand shoes of the latest style. Obviously, it is unbelievable that these children concentrate more on material comforts than the ability of learning.Simple as it is, the symbolic connotation is as deep as ocean. Families in mounting numbers have been becoming affluent in economy in recent years owing to the rapid development in our country. At the same time, parents usually inclined to give their children ample material conditions such as funny toys, expensive clothing, tasty food and so forth, thus gradually spoiling the future generation and preventing them from leading an independent life. Quite regrettably, the abundance of material comforts does not correlate with the rise of ability of learning and living. Hence, thisphenomenon has triggered a severe damage to both our society and these children. Were the tendency to continue, our society would pay a high price to learn a lesson from it.As far as I’m concerned, it will cause intense turbulence in our country if we feed our future generation in such an indulgent way. In coping with the awful phenomenon, we should put the idea of striving for advancement in the process of learning rather than comparing material conditions at the core of the theory of our education. The time we educate our children in a more rational way is the time that we can surely believe that the future of our country is to change for better.The picture above has caused a heated discussion about self-confidence. As is subtly depicted in the given image, in front of a mirror stands a lovely cat, firmly believing that it is as strong as a lion. Obviously, it is confidence that makes it possible for the cat to reckon itself better than anyone else.Funny and exaggerated as the picture is, the symbolic connotation is thought-provoking. As a consequence of the rapid developing economic globalization, every individual are bound to encounter a variety of difficulties and problems, which are so tough that hardly can we conquer them. It is essential that self-confidence should be put at the core part in our mind. Just as a proverb puts it, when weface troubles and handicaps, however, “the final enemy is ourselves.”As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that self-confidence is the unexhausted source of our energy, our intelligence and our convincing power towards success. It is self-confidence which support us unwaveringly in the process of achieving success in all walks of life. That is where self-confidence comes in.In my view, facing a great number of difficulties and handicaps, we should bear in mind that self-confidence will definitely leads us to success. Everyone in our society should have the sense of self-confidence. Any trouble is nothing but a fake monster. Once we recognize its essence and acquire self-confidence, it will only be a matter of time before the victory becomes true.合作As is subtly revealed in the given portrayal above, with several big boxes in his hands, hardly can the young man carries them safely, which is defined as an addition effect. When he cooperates with another person by means of using a wooden board, they can easily carry large numbers of boxes which is 5 times than that one person can carry. Conversely, it is revealed as a multiplication effect. Obviously, it is cooperation that makes it possible for them to carry so many boxes without exhausting too much energy.Simple as the picture is, the purpose of the painter shows that teamwork is of great significance when we handle a variety of troubles and problems. With the rapid growth of economy and society, competition is becoming increasingly fierce. It is impossible for anyone to achieve success without teamwork and cooperation with others. Hence, people in mounting numbers put great emphasis on teamwork. As a matter of fact, it has been universally acknowledged that cooperation with copartners through all kinds of methods is one of the most essential qualification that anyone who wants to achieve success should possess. Placing cooperation in the core part of our mind can be justified on the grounds that it fits nicely with the theory of traditional Chinese culture. Accordingly, many philosophies from Confucianism and Taoism in traditional Chinese culture have emphasized the need to maintain a cooperative relationship with others. The competition being so serious, it is high time that a series of rules and regulations were worked out to encourage cooperation in the modern life. Everyone should acquire the ability of teamwork. Only in this way can we gain success and only in this way can we witness the ideal scene that our societyfunctions properly and actively in a harmonious atmosphere.网络As is subtly depicted in the given cartoon above, with a lovely smile face on the computer screen, the Internet contains too much personal information of people in mounting numbers, bringing convenience to the public. The easy access of private information to anyone, however, attaches a vicious face to the Internet in the shadow of its merits. Obviously, personal information security has gradually become a rather devastating problem hindering the rapid development of the Internet. 文化交流As is vividly portrayed in the given cartoon above, carrying The Analects of Confucius, two westerners are applying the opportunities to become the students of Confucius, who is naturally associated with the traditional Chinese culture. At the same time, Confucius also wants to learn advanced culture from the western world to improve the modern civilized level of China. Obviously, this meeting of West and East has contributed to a culture blending, bringing hope and harmony at the same time.篇二:2016考研英语一大作文押题2016考研英语大作文高频出题点(英一)(基于对张剑,何凯文,新东方,陈正康等模卷统计分析)序言标红部分为重点词汇,考研er需重点记忆,范文则可根据有下划线标识的文章框架部分着重进行记忆。
