(40points)Text1Half the world s population will be speaking or learning English by2015,researchers say.Two billion people are expected to start learning English within a decade and three billion will speak it,says a British Council estimate.Other languages,such as French,risk becoming the casualties of this“linguistic globalization”.But the boom will be over by2050and the English language teaching industry will have become a victim of its own success,says David Graddol,author of the report,The Future of English.Mr.Graddol s research was based on a computer model developed to estimate demand for English language teaching around the world. The lecturer,who has worked in education and language studies at the Open University for the past25years,said the model charted likely student numbers through to2050.It was compiled by looking at various estimates from the United Nations Education,Scientific and Cultural Organization(Unesco)on education provision,demographic projections,government education policies and international student mobility figures.The impact of educational innovations and other developments affecting the world population including the Chinese government s policy of one baby per family were also factored in.Based on its findings,Mr.Graddol has predicted that the world is about to be hit by a tidal wave of English.“Many governments, especially in countries which have relatively recently gained independence,are introducing the teaching of English under a utilitarian banner.”“But English predominates in the business world,and for such countries to be able to compete for work,including lucrative (profitable)outsourcing contracts,English is being pushed heavily from kindergarten on.”The potential bonanza(source of wealth)on offer from outsourcing means even maths and science are being taught in English at secondary schools in Malaysia.But demand for English teaching would drop as children progress through academia,and more universities across the world choose to teach in the language.Mr.Graddol also estimated that the boom would be over by 2050.“English language students will be down from two billion to 500million then,”he said,“Increasingly,as English spread across the globe,more people will become bilingual,even multi lingual and such skills are highly prized in business.But Britain has not got the best reputation for learning other languages.”The report also showed that English was not the only language spreading,and the world,far from being dominated by English,was to become more multi-lingual.Mr.Graddol said,“Chinese,Arabic and Spanish are all popular,and likely to be languages of the future.”21.It is estimated that in a decade English will be[A]actively studied by over200million people.[B]freely spoken by global English learners.[C]popular with over80%of world inhabitants.[D]really mastered by50%of people worldwide.22.According to the text,“linguistic globalization”will[A]eliminate French from the globe.[B]defeat other European languages.[C]fail all languages except English.[D]make English the biggest winner.23.David Graddol predicts that the thriving period of English will[A]terminate within half a century.[B]climax in the middle of the century.[C]endure for no less than five decades.[D]quit till the beginning of the2050s.24.The report“The Future of English”factored in all of the following EXCEPT[A]the educational condition and policy.[B]the directions and designs of Unesco.[C]the statistics about population.[D]the movements of overseas students.35.The writer of the report deems that outsourcing is to[A]result in the increase of English subjects.[B]lead to the drop of interest in English study.[C]account for the further spread of English.[D]bring about transition in college curricula.Text2Perhaps only a small boy training to be a wizard at the Hogwarts school of magic could cast a spell so powerful as to create the biggest book launch ever.Wherever in the world the clock strikes midnight on June20th,his followers will flock to get their paws on one of more than10m copies of“Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix”.Bookshops will open in the middle of the night and delivery firms are drafting in extra staff and bigger trucks.Related toys,games,DVDs and other merchandise will be everywhere.There will be no escaping Pottermania.Yet Mr.Potter’s world is a curious one,in which things are often not what they appear.While an excitable media(hereby including The Economist,happy to support such a fine example of globalization)is helping to hype the launch of J.K.Rowling’s fifth novel,about the most adventurous thing that the publishers(Scholastic in America and Britain’s Bloomsbury in English elsewhere)have organized is a reading by Ms Rowling in London’s Royal Albert Hall,to be broadcast as a live web cast.Hollywood,which owns everything else to do with Harry Potter, says it is doing even less.Incredible as it may seem,the guardians of the brand say that,to protect the Potter franchise,they are trying to maintain a low profile.Well,relatively low.Ms Rowling signed a contract in1998with Warner Brothers,part of AOL Time Warner, giving the studio exclusive film,licensing and merchandising rights in return for what now appears to have been a steal:some$500,000. Warner licenses other firms to produce goods using Harry Potter characters or images,from which Ms Rowling gets a big enough cut that she is now wealthier than the queen―if you believe Britain’s Sunday Times rich list.The process is self-generating:each book sets the stage for a film,which boosts book sales,which lifts sales of Potterproducts.Globally,the first four Harry Potter books have sold some200m copies in55languages;the two movies have grossed over$1.8billion at the box office.This is a stunning success by any measure, especially as Ms Rowling has long demanded that Harry Potter should not be over commercialized.In line with her wishes,Warner says it is being extraordinarily careful,at least by Hollywood standards, about what it licenses and to whom.It imposed tough conditions on Coca Cola,insisting that no Harry Potter images should appear on cans, and is now in the process of making its licensing programme even more restrictive.Coke may soon be considered too mass market to carry the brand at all.The deal with Warner ties much of the merchandising to the films alone.There are no officially sanctioned products relating to “Order of the Phoenix”;nor yet for“Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban”,the film of the third book,which is due out in June 2004.Warner agrees that Ms Rowling’s creation is a different sort of commercial property,one with long-term potential that could be damaged by a typical Hollywood marketing blitz,says Diane Nelson, the studio’s global brand manager for Harry Potter.It is vital,she adds,that with more to come,readers of the books are not alienated.“The evidence from our market research is that enthusiasm for the property by fans is not waning.”26.When the author says“there will be no escaping Pottermania”,he implies that.[A]Harry Potter’s appeal for the readers is simply irresistible[B]it is somewhat irrational to be so crazy about the magic boy[C]craze about Harry Potter will not be over in the near future[D]Hogwarts school of magic will be the biggest attraction world over27.Ms Rowling’s reading in London’s Royal Albert Hall is mentioned to show.[A]publishers are really adventurous in managing the Potter’s business[B]businesses are actually more credible than media in Potter’s world[C]the media are promoting Pottermania more actively than Hollywood[D]businesses involved with Potter are moving along in an unusual way28.The author believes that.[A]Britain’s Sunday Times rich list is not very convincing as it sounds[B]Time Warner’s management of licenses is a bit over commercialized[C]other firms may produce goods using Harry Potter images at will[D]what Ms Rowling got in return for her offering to Warner isa real bargain29.Paragraph4intends mainly to show Warner’s.[A]determination to promote Potter[B]consistence in conducting business[C]high regard for Ms Rowling’s request[D]careful restrictions on licensing to Coco-Cola30.It can be concluded from the last paragraph that.[A]products of Potter films have brought enormous profits to Warner[B]current Hollywood’s marketing of Potter may damage its potential[C]readers could get tired of Ms Rowling’s writings sooner or later[D]Warner will maintain the same strategy with Potter in futurText3What accounts for the astounding popularity of Dr.Phil McGraw? Why have so many TV viewers and book buyers embraced this tough warrior of a psychologist who tells them to suck it up and deal with their own problems rather than complaining and blaming everyone else? Obviously,Oprah Winfrey has a lot to do with it.She made him famous with regular appearances on her show,and is co-producing the new "Dr.Phil"show that’s likely to be the hottest new daytime offering this fall.But we decided to put Dr.Phil on the cover not just because he’s a phenomenon.We think his success may reflect an interestingshift in the American spirit of time.Could it be that we’re finally getting tired of the culture of victimology?This is a tricky subject,because there are very sad real victims among us.Men still abuse women in alarming numbers.Racism and discrimination persist in subtle and not-so-subtle forms.But these days,almost anyone can find a therapist or lawyer to assure them that their professional relationship or health problems aren’t their fault.As Marc Peyser tells us in his terrific profile of Dr.Phil, the TV suits were initially afraid audiences would be offended by his stern advice to"get real!"In fact,viewers thirsted for the tough talk.Privately,we all know we have to take responsibility for decisions we control.It may not be revolutionary advice(and may leave out important factors like unconscious impulses).But it’s still an important message with clear echoing as,a year later,we contemplate the personal lessons of September11.Back at the ranch(livestock farm)-the one in Crawford,Texas-President Bush continued to issue mixed signals on Iraq.He finally promised to consult allies and Congress before going to war, and signaled an attack isn’t coming right now("I’m a patient man"). But so far there has been little consensus-building,even as the administration talks of"regime change"and positions troops in the gulf.Bush’s team also ridiculed the press for giving so much coverage to the Iraq issue.Defense Secretary Rumsfeld called it a "frenzy,"and Press Secretary Ari Fleischer dismissed it as"self-inflicted silliness."But as Michael Hirsh notes in our lead story,much of the debate has been inside the Republican Party,where important voices of experience argue Bush needs to prepare domestic and world opinion and think through the global consequences before moving forward.With so much at stake,the media shouldn’t pay attention?Now who’s being silly?31.Faced with diversified issues of injustice,Dr.Phil McGraw advised that people should__.[A]strongly voice their condemnation of those responsible[B]directly probe the root of their victimization[C]carefully examine their own problems[D]sincerely express their sympathy for the victims32.One possible response,when the program"Dr.Phil"was first presented on TV,that people were afraid of was_____.[A]suspicion[B]satisfaction[C]indifference[D]indignation33.The word"tough"(Line7,Paragraph2)most probably means_____.[A]piercing to the truth[B]using vulgar language[C]mean and hostile[D]difficult to understand34.The author advises the public to_____.[A]leave out factors such as unconscious impulses[B]draw lessons of their own from September11[C]respond decisively to September11tragedy[D]accept decisions beyond our control35.With a series of questions at the end of the text,the author _____.[A]feels uncertain of what his own opinion is[B]differentiates two conflicting views[C]criticizes the Bush Administration[D]argues for the US policy on IraqText4With the extension of democratic rights in the first half of the nineteenth century and the ensuing decline of the Federalist establishment,a new conception of education began to emerge. Education was no longer a confirmation of a pre-existing status,but an instrument in the acquisition of higher status.For a new generation of upwardly mobile students,the goal of education was not to prepare them to live comfortably in the world into which they had been born,but to teach them new virtues and skills that would propel them into a different and better cation became training; and the student was no longer the gentleman-in-waiting,but the journeyman apprentice for upward mobility.In the nineteenth century a college education began to be seenas a way to get ahead in the world.The founding of the land-grant colleges opened the doors of higher education to poor but aspiring boys from non-Anglo-Saxon,working-class and lower-middle-class backgrounds.The myth of the poor boy who worked his way through college to success drew millions of poor boys to the new campuses. And with this shift,education became more vocational:its object was the acquisition of practical skills and useful information.For the gentleman-in-waiting,virtue consisted above all in grace and style,in doing well what was appropriate to his position; education was merely a way of acquiring polish.And vice was manifested in gracelessness,awkwardness,in behaving inappropriately,discourteously,or ostentatiously.For the apprentice,however,virtue was evidenced in success through hard work.The requisite qualities of character were not grace or style, but drive,determination,and a sharp eye for opportunity.While casual liberality and even prodigality characterized the gentleman, frugality,thrift,and self-control came to distinguish the new apprentice.And while the gentleman did not aspire to a higher station because his station was already high,the apprentice was continually becoming,striving,struggling upward.Failure for the apprentice meant standing still,not rising.36.Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?[A]Democratic ideas started with education.[B]Federalists were opposed to education.[C]New education helped confirm people’s social status.[D]Old education had been in tune with hierarchical society.37.The difference between"gentleman-in-waiting"and "journeyman"is that_____.[A]education trained gentleman-in-waiting to climb higher ladders[B]journeyman was ready to take whatever was given to him[C]gentleman-in-waiting belonged to a fixed and high social class[D]journeyman could do practically nothing without education38.According to the second paragraph,land-grant College_____.[A]belonged to the land-owning class[B]enlarged the scope of education[C]was provided only to the poor[D]benefited all but the upper class39.Which of the following was the most important for a "gentleman-in-waiting"?[A]Manners.[B]Education.[C]Moral.[D]Personality.40.The best title for the passage is_____.[A]Education and Progress[B]Old and New Social Norms[C]New Education:Opportunities for More[D]Demerits of Hierarchical SocietyPart BSample oneDirections:In the following article,some sentences have been removed.For Questions41-45,choose the most suitable one from the lish A-G to fit into each of the numbered blank.There are two extra choices that do not fit in any of the gaps.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1. (10points)As more and more material from other cultures became available, European scholars came to recognize even greater complexity in mythological traditions.Especially valuable was the evidence provided by ancient Indian and Iranian texts such as the Bhagavad-Gita and the Zend-Avesta.From these sources it became apparent that the character of myths varied widely,not only by geographical region but also by historical period.(41)__________He argued that the relatively simple Greek myth of Persephone reflects the concerns of a basic agricultural community,whereas the more involved and complex myths found later in Homer are the product of a more developed society.Scholars also attempted to tie various myths of the world togetherin some way.From the late18th century through the early19th century, the comparative study of languages had led to the reconstruction of a hypothetical parent language to account for striking similarities among the various languages of Europe and the Near East.These languages,scholars concluded,belonged to an Indo-European language family.Experts on mythology likewise searched for a parent mythology that presumably stood behind the mythologies of all the European peoples.(42)__________For example,an expression like"maiden dawn"for"sunrise" resulted first in personification of the dawn,and then in myths about her.Later in the19th century the theory of evolution put forward by English naturalist Charles Darwin heavily influenced the study of mythology.Scholars researched on the history of mythology,much as they would dig fossil-bearing geological formations,for remains from the distant past.(43)__________Similarly,British anthropologist Sir James George Frazer proposed a three-stage evolutionary scheme in The Golden Bough. According to Frazer’s scheme,human beings first attributed natural phenomena to arbitrary supernatural forces(magic),later explaining them as the will of the gods(religion),and finally subjecting them to rational investigation(science).The research of British scholar William Robertson Smith, published in Lectures on the Religion of the Semites(1889),also influenced Frazer.Through Smith’s work,Frazer came to believe that many myths had their origin in the ritual practices of ancient agricultural peoples,for whom the annual cycles of vegetation were of central importance.(44)__________This approach reached its most extreme form in the so-called functionalism of British anthropologist A.R.Radcliffe-Brown,who held that every myth implies a ritual,and every ritual implies a myth.Most analyses of myths in the18th and19th centuries showed a tendency to reduce myths to some essential core-whether the seasonal cycles of nature,historical circumstances,or ritual.That core supposedly remained once the fanciful elements of the narratives had been stripped away.In the20th century,investigators began to pay closer attention to the content of the narratives themselves.(45)__________[A]German-born British scholar Max Müller concluded that the Rig-Veda of ancient India-the oldest preserved body of literature written in an Indo-European language-reflected the earliest stages of an Indo-European mythology.M?ller attributed all later myths to misunderstandings that arose from the picturesque terms in which early peoples described natural phenomena.[B]The myth and ritual theory,as this approach came to be called,was developed most fully by British scholar Jane Ellen ing insight gained from the work of French sociologist Emile Durkheim, Harrison argued that all myths have their origin in collective rituals of a society.[C]Austrian psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud held that myths-like dreams-condense the material of experience and represent it in symbols.[D]This approach can be seen in the work of British anthropologist Edward Burnett Tylor.In Primitive Culture(1871), Tylor organized the religious and philosophical development of humanity into separate and distinct evolutionary stages.[E]The studies made in this period were consolidated in the work of German scholar Christian Gottolob Heyne,who was the first scholar to use the Latin term myths(instead of fibula,meaning"fable")to refer to the tales of heroes and gods.[F]German scholar Karl Otfried M?ller followed this line of inquiry in his Prolegomena to a Scientific Mythology,1825).

Bridging them is always a difficult problem,sometimes even an impossibility.[B]On the contrary,traditional Chinese are apt to refer to oneself with expressions like“your underling(zai xia,在下)”,“my humble self(bi ren,鄙人)”,“the poor talented(bu cai,不才)”,“the base one(jian ren,贱人)”,“your servant(nu bi,奴婢)”;and even emperors would refer to themselves as“the one who lacks morality(gua ren,寡人)”or“the solitary(gu,孤)”, showing a mentality of self restraint,self discipline,and respect for others.[C]I have had the unhappy experience at customs offices where without hesitation foreigners often“kindly helped”me to change my name order.For this,I would always argue and fight with them until the name order was changed back.Nowadays,many Chinese make it a matter of course to accept Western customs in their way ofself introduction.But foreigners do not necessarily acknowledge the contrary Chinese customs.Many potential culture clashes are actually rooted in such misreadings and prejudices.[D]Also,the orders of listing names and addresses for Chinese and Westerners are actually opposite,which may be taken to reveal that Chinese tend to respect wholeness and collectiveness,and theirthinking pattern is more often from big to small,and from macro to micro.Meanwhile,Westerners tend to respect subdivided parts and individuals,more often moving from small to big,and from micro to macro.When Chinese present their names,they put surnames before their own given names,thus showing respect to their ancestors. Westerners act in a contrary way,showing self respect.[E]A language epitomizes the cognitive pattern of a worldview. Any new language one has learned is as good as a new way one views the world.Important values are usually embedded within languages, which to some extent affect our fortunes at every moment.The extent that one can break out of language obstacles is a measure of one’s capacity to break away from bondages of one’s own fortune.[F]Before we have a clear idea of the above problem,it might be misleading or extremist to discuss such topics as whether we should maintain the traditional Chinese ethical and political systems as the core of Chinese culture while making use of Western science and technology as the practical means to strengthen China\[zhong ti xi yong,中体西用\]or whether we should mainly adopt Western ethical and political systems to improve Chinese culture\[xi ti zhong yong,西体中用\].[G]The great disparities between Chinese and Western cultures can be identified even in some everyday linguistic usages,Chinese or Western.For example,in English,the only pronoun that is capitalized is“I”.Capitalization is an emphasis.No doubt,acapitalized“I”stresses egocentrism or individualism as a value, with its implications of self dependence,self strengthening, self interestedness and self importance.Order:E→41→42→43→44→45→Sample ThreeDirections:You are going to read a text about animation,followed by a list of explanations.Choose the best explanation from the list A F for each numbered subheading(4145).There is one extra explanation which you do not need to use.Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET1. (10points)Animation is a kind of motion pictures created by recording a series of still images—of drawings,objects,or people in various positions of incremental movement—that when played back no longer appear individually as static images but combine to produce the illusion of unbroken motion.The term animation applies to creations on film,video,or computers,and even to motion toys,which usually consist of a series of drawings or photographs on paper that are viewed。

2022年考研考博-考博英语-暨南大学考试全真模拟易错、难点剖析AB卷（带答案）一.综合题(共15题)1.不定项选择题With human footprints on the moon, radio telescopes listening for messages from alien creatures (who may or may not exist), technicians looking for celestial and planetary sources of energy to support our civilization, orbiting telescopes’ date hinting at planetary systems around other stars, and political groups trying to figure out how to save humanity from nude warfare that would damage life and climate on a planet-wide scale, an astronomy book published today enters a world different from the one that greeted books a generation ago. Astronomy has broadened to involve our basic circumstances and our mysterious future in the universe. With eclipses and space missions broadcast live, and with NASA, Europe, and the USSR planning and building permanent space stations, astronomy offers adventure for all people, an outward exploratory thrust that may one day be seen as an alternative to mindless consumerism, ideological bickering, and wars to control dwindling resources on a closed, finite Earth. Today’s astrono my students not only seek an up to-date summary of astronomical facts: they ask, as people have asked for ages, about our basic relations to the rest of the universe. They may study astronomy partly to seek points of contact between science and other human endeavors: philosophy, history, politics, environmental action, even the arts and religion. Science fiction writers and special effect artists on recent films help today’s students realize that unseen worlds of space are real places—not abstract concepts. Today’s students are citizens of a more real, more vast cosmos that conceptualized by students of a decade ago.In designing this edition, the Wadsworth editors and I have tried to respond to these developments. Rather than jumping at the start into murky waters of cosmology, I have begun with the viewpoint of ancient people on Earth and worked outward across the universe. This method of organization automatically (if loosely) reflects the order of humanity’s discoveries about astronomy and provides a unifying theme of increasing distance and scale.1. This passage is most probably taken from（）.2. The author’s main purpose in writing the first paragraph is（）.3. The author thinks that the growing interest in space exploration among people on Earth will probably lead to（）.4. The author believes that today’s astronomies students（）.5.

四、联系导师在初步定好考博学校之后，就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系，询问是否有招生名额，能否报考，这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。
大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。
因为太早，学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定，报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额；太晚的话，怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。
一般情况下，导师对一个学生很中意的话，后来联系的学生，导师一般也不会答应其报考了。

通常跟导师初次联系，都是发邮件。
导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种：（1）、欢迎报考。
这种答复最笼统，说明不了问题。
我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通，看看具体的进展，避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。
（2）、名额有限，可以报考，但有竞争。
很多人说这样的回复不满意，认为希望很小一般会被刷。
其实这样还是比较好的一种回答，最起码导师没有骗你而且给你机会去证明自己，考的好就可以上。
(3）、你的研究方向和我一样......各种一大堆他的研究方向和你相关，欢迎报考什么的话。

3.不定项选择题The most valuable diamonds are large, individual crystals of pure crystal lint carbon. Less perfect forms, known as “boars” and “carbonado” are clusters of tiny crystals. Until diamonds are cut and polished, they do not sparkle like those you see on a ring — they just look like small, blue-grey stones.In a rather crude form the cutting and polishing of precious stones was an art known to the Ancient Egyptians, and in the middle Ages it became widespread in north-west Europe. However, a revolutionary change in the methods of cutting and polishing was made in 1476 when Ludwig Van Berquen of Bruges in Belgium invented the use of a swiftly revolving wheel with its edge faced with fine diamond powder. The name “boast” is gi ven to this fine powder as well as the natural crystalline material already mentioned. It is also gimp to badly flawed or broken diamond crystals, useless as jewels that are broken into powder for grinding purposes, the so-called “industrial” diamonds.Diamond itself is the only material hard enough to cut and polish diamonds — though recently, high-intensity light beams called lasers have been developed which can bore holes in them. It may be necessary to split or cleave the large stones before they are cut and polished. Every diamond has a natural line of cleavage, along which it may be split by a sharp blow with a cutting edge. A fully cut “brilliant” diamond has 58 facets, or faces, regularly arranged. For cutting or faceting, the stones are fixed into copper holders and held against a wheel, edged with a mixture of Oil and fine diamond dust, which is revolved at about 2,500 revolutions a minute. Amsterdam and Antwerp, in Holland and Belgium respectively, have been the centre of the diamond cutting and polishing industry for over seven centuries.The jewel value of brilliant diamonds depends greatly on their colors, or “water” as it is called. The usual coolers of diamonds are white, yellow, brown, green or blue. Surrounding rocks and take on their color, thus black, red and even bright pink diamonds have occasionally been found.The trade in diamonds is not only in the valuable gem stones but also in the industrial diamonds mentioned above. Zaire produces 70% of such stones. They are fixed into the rock drills used in mining and civil engineering, also for edging band saws for cutting stone. Diamond-faced tools are used for cutting and drilling glass and fine porcelain and fordentists’ drills. They are used as bearings in watches and other finely balanced instruments.Perhaps you own some diamonds without knowing it — in your wristwatch!1. “Carbonado” is the name given to（）.2.

暨南大学考博英语模拟真题及其解析
暨南大学考博英语模拟真题及其解析TEXT2For the past several years,the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called“Ask Marilyn.”People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant,who at age10had tested at a mental level of someone about23years old;that gave her an IQ of 228—the highest score ever recorded.IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies,to envision paper after it has been folded and cut,and to deduce numerical sequences,among other similar tasks.So it is a bit confusing when vos Savant fields such queries from the average Joe(whose IQ is100)as.What’s the difference between love and fondness?Or what is the nature of luck and Geng duo yuan xiao wan zheng kao bo ying yu zhen ti ji qi jie xi qing lian xi quan guo mian fei zi xun dian hua:si ling ling liu liu ba liu jiu qi ba,huo jia zi xun qq:qi qi er liu qi ba wu san qi coincidence? It’s not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers.Clearly,intelligence encompasses more than a score on a test.Just what does it mean to be smart?How much of intelligence can be specified,and how much can we learn about it from neurology, genetics,computer science and other fields?The defining term of intelligence in humans still seems to be the IQ score,even though IQ tests are not given as often as they used to be.The test comes primarily in two forms:the Stanford?BinetIntelligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scales（both come in adult and children’s version）.Generally costing several hundred dollars,they are usually given only by psychologists,although variations of them populate bookstores and World Wide Web.Superhigh scores like vos Savant’s are no longer possible,because scoring is now based on a statistical population distribution among age peers, rather than simply dividing the mental age by the chronological age and multiplying by100.Other standardized tests,such as the Scholastic Assessment Test(SAT)and the Graduate Record Exam(GRE), capture the main aspects of IQ tests.Such standardized tests may not assess all the important elements necessary to succeed in school and in life,argues Robert J. Sternberg.In his article“How Intelligent Is Intelligence Testing?”,Sternberg notes that traditional tests best assess analytical and verbal skills but fail to measure creativity and practical knowledge,components also critical to problem solving and life success.Moreover,IQ tests do not necessarily predict so well once populations or situations change.Research has found that IQ predicted leadership skills when the tests were given underlow?stress conditions,but under high?stress conditions，IQ was negatively correlated with leadership—that is,it predicted the opposite.Anyone who has toiled through SAT will testify that test?taking skill also matters,whether it’s knowing when to guess or what questions to skip.26.Which of the following may be required in an intelligence test?［A］Answering philosophical questions.［B］Folding or cutting paper into different shapes.［C］Telling the differences between certain concepts.［D］Choosing words or graphs similar to the given ones.27.What can be inferred about intelligence testing from paragraph 3?［A］People no longer use IQ scores as an indicator of intelligence.［B］More versions of IQ tests are now available on the Internet.［C］The test contents and formats for adults and children may be different.［D］Scientists have defined the important elements of human intelligence.28.People nowadays can no longer achieve IQ scores as high as vos Savant’s because［A］the scores are obtained through different computational procedures.［B］creativity rather than analytical skills is emphasized now.［C］vos Savant’s case is an extreme one that will not repeat.［D］the defining characteristic of IQ tests has changed.29.We can conclude from the last paragraph that［A］test scores may not be reliable indicators of one’s ability.［B］IQ scores and SAT results are highly correlated.［C］testing involves a lot of guesswork.［D］traditional tests are out of date.30.What is the author’s attitude towards IQ tests?［A］Supportive.［B］Skeptical.［C］Impartial.［D］Biased.本文由“育明考博”整理编辑。

2022年考研考博-考博英语-暨南大学考试全真模拟易错、难点剖析AB卷（带答案）一.综合题(共15题)1.单选题Many advantages come with being a first-born child. First-borns tend to make more money than their younger siblings; they are more likely to earn advanced degrees, and they have slightly better odds of becoming presidents, prime ministers, and Nobel laureates. They even have longer life expectancy than later-born siblings.There is yet another advantage: First-born children show better second language skills than later-born children. At least this was the finding of new research in last month’s issue of Frontiers in Psychology.The study, led by Dr. Karin Keller of Switzerland’s University of Basel, examined the second language skills of 1209 immigrant children between the ages of two-and-a-half and three from Switzerland’s German-speaking region of Basel. The study was administered via mail; parents filled out a survey asking them to assess their child’s German language ability. They also reported demographic information such as how many other children were in the household, birth order, number of books in the household, and parental language skills.The findings of the study are as the following. First, children with more siblings exhibited worse second language skills than children with fewer siblings. This makes some sense; one might imagine that larger immigrant families are more likely to propagate the communication styles of their home country. Furthermore, more children means less time for parents to develop their children’s second language abilities.Second, the researchers found that first-born children exhibited a minor, but statistically significant, advantage in their second language abilities.When explaining the causes for the language ability differences, the researchers suggest that the differences have more to do with environmental factors. The y cite a “resource dilution model”, in which first-born children benefit from a greater parental resource investment. The researchers write, “Every additional sibling means a reduction in the share of resources allocated to each child, thus reducing the fo undations of their intellectual development.”Keller and her team of researchers, however, were quick to put this finding in context. They note that the effect is quite small; they were only able to find it because of the study’s large sample size. Furthermore, exposure to early education institutions offset the effect of birth order on second language acquisition. This, in the researchers’ minds, is the key takeaway from this study.Keller and her colleagues write, “Considering that families from immigrant backgrounds have fewer financial resources, and that these resources influence the children’s level of development. It seems all the more important that immigrant families with many children are financially supported so that their children are offered the best opportunities possible for their academic careers. Given the results of this study, promoting the attendance of early education institutions is an efficient way of achieving this goal.”6. What do we know about first-born children?7. What does the study of Dr. Karin Keller find?8. What is one of the reasons for language ability differences between first-borns and later-borns?9. What is the important information from the study according to the researchers?10.

Although the foundation of many of these was classical, they soon expanded beyond the measure of Greek and Roman influence. Indeed, many of the achievements in painting, science, politics and religion bore little relation to the classical heritage. Secondly, the Renaissance incorporated a number of dominant ideals and attitudes that gave it the impress of a unique society. Notable among these in general were optimism, and individualism; but the most significant of them all was humanism. In its broadest meaning humanism may be defined as emphasis on the human values. It was a term derived from Cicero, who used it in the sense of devotion to the liberal arts, or the subjects most compatible with the dignity of man.【答案】首先，文艺复兴包含了文学、艺术、科学、哲学、教育和宗教方面令人印象深刻的新的成就。

2.填空题Your Smartphone May Be Hurting Your SleepA) You love your smartphone, but it may be ruining your ZZZ’s. Use of these devices, especially near bedtime, is associated with worse quality of sleep, according to a new study. “When we looked at smartphone use around t he time when participants reported they went to bed, more smartphone use around that time in particular was associated with a longer time to fall asleep and worse sleep quality during the night,” said Dr. Gregory Marcus, author of the study and an associate professor of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco. His research was published Wednesday in the journal PLOS One. B) The word “crack-berry” became popular roughly a decade ago to describe the addictive quality of BlackBerry devices—arguably the first really successful smartphones. Today, almost everyone is a smartphone junkie, standing with head bowed while waiting for a train or in line at the post office.C) Knowing that smartphone use has increased together with sleep deprivation rates, Marcus and his colleagues decided to investigate whether the two might be related. To answer this question, he used exiting information collected by an Internet-based study he started in March 2016.D) “Health E-Heart,” which was funded by the Nation al Institutes of Health is designed to study cardiovascular health. Anyone 18 years of age or older can enroll in Health E-Heart, co-founded by Drs. Mark Pletcher and Jeffrey Olgin, professors at UCSF. After signing a consent form, enrolled participants self-report their health data via a series of online questionnaires. The information is gathered, analyzed and used to research and develop strategies to prevent and treat all aspects of heart disease.E) About 80,000 participants have enrolled in Health E-Heart, Marcus said. “We’ve had people from every state in the US, lots of people from every state, and we actually have people from 50 countries.” Marcus and his co-founders also make the data available to other scientists conducting unrelated studies. For the new smartphone study, Marcus made use of this wealth of information to conduct his own “sub-study”.F) Of the total Health E-Heart enrollees, 653 people chose to participate in and complete the new smartphone-sleep study. Participants installed an app on their phones to automatically record the total number of minutes in each hour the screen was turned on (total screen time) during a 30-day period. These participants had already reported their sleep hours and sleep quality using a validated questionnaire as part of the general Health E-Heart experience, Marcus explained. So, when answering the sleep assessment questions, participants also entered demographic data plus information about their alcohol use, physical activity, smoking habits and other health issues. By answering so many questions, participants were unaware of what the researchers were studying, explained Marcus: “We wouldn’t expect any bias.”G) Analyzing the data, the researchers discovered that, on average, participants used their smartphones for a total of 38.4 hours over a 30-day period. Individuals with a longer average screen time were more likely to have poorer sleep quality and less sleep overall: About 35% of those who used their smartphones for shorter amounts of time than average had sleep difficulties, compared with 42% of those with average or greater than average use. And poor quality sleep was more likely for participants who used their smartphones near bedtime.H) The researchers discovered that screen-time varies throughout a 24-hour period, but most occurs during the day. Yet for some participants, smartphone use peaked during the night. “We can’t exclude the possibility that some people can’t sleep for some completely unrelated reason, and because they can’t sleep, they’re using their smartphone, just to pass the time,” Marcus said.I) Despite potential shortcomings, Marcus research is in line with other studies showing that the use of technology near bedtime is associated with difficulty sleeping, such as the 2015 National Sleep Foundation poll. Other research has shown that the blue light emitted by smartphones (and other digital devices) might suppress our body’s production of melatonin, a hormone that induces tiredness and contributes to the timing of sleep-wake cycles. “So there’s some biological plausibility supporting the idea that there is a causal relationship, but we weren’t able to identify that,” Marcus noted.J) “It is believed that sleep is a restorative process and a basic biologic need,” said Dr. Neil Kline, a sleep physician, internist and representative of the American Sleep Association. “When animals, including humans, are deprived of sleep, there are many body systems that fail. Not only does our performance, memory and attention span suffer, our immune system and endocrine system is also impaired.”K) Though most of these negative effects have been studied exclusively in adults, children’s sleep is also affected by technology, according to an unrelated study. Lead author Ben Carter, a senior lecturer in biostatistics at King’s College London, and his colleagues discovered that for teens and children, the use of cell phones, tablets and computers is associated with losing sleep time and sleep quality.L) Marcus said he suspects that some people may be affected more than others and overuse of a smartphone impacts their sleep more than it would for other people. He hopes to investigate this question in the future. Based on his results, he suggested that insomniacs and other troubled sleepers should avoid looking at their screens for half an hour or so before going to bed to see whether that might enhance the quality of their slumber. He added, “There’s almost certainly no harm in giving that a good try.”11. Our addiction to smartphones dates back to about ten years ago._________12.

2022年考研考博-考博英语-暨南大学考试全真模拟易错、难点剖析AB卷（带答案）一.综合题(共15题)1.单选题He seemed reluctant to send his troops in an effort to discourage the（）peasants.问题1选项A.animatedB.rebelliousC.creasedD.impassive【答案】B【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。
animated“活生生的；活泼的”；rebellious“反抗的；造反的”；creased“有折痕的”；impassive“冷漠的；无感觉的”，根据troops“军队”一词可知此处的peasant“农民”是需要被镇压的，分析四个选项可知此处填rebellious这个形容词符合句意。
句意：他好像不愿意派他的军队去镇压……农民。
由此得知B选项正确。
2.不定项选择题A few years ago a young mother watched her husband diaper（给……换尿布）their firstborn son, “You do not have to be unhappy about it,” she protested. “You can talk to him and smile a little.” The father, who happened to be a psychologist, answered firmly, “He has nothing to say to me, and I have nothing to say to him.”Psychologist now know how wrong that father was. From the moment of birth, a baby has a great deal to say to his parents, and they to him. But a decade or so ago, these experts were describing the newborn as a primitive creature who reacted only by reflex, a helpless victim of its environment without capacity to influence it. And mothers accepted the truth. Most thought (and some still do) that a new infant could see only blurry（模糊的）shadows, that his other senses were undeveloped, and that all he required was nourishment, clean diapers, and a warm bassinet. Today university laboratories across the country are studying newborns in their first month of life. As a result, psychologists now describe the new baby as perceptive, with remarkable learning abilities and an even more remarkable capacity to shape his or her environment including the attitudes and actions of his parents. Some researchers believe that the neonatal period may even be the most significant four weeks in an entire lifetime.Far from bei ng helpless, the newborn knows what he likes and rejects what he doesn’t. He shut out unpleasant sensations by closing his eyes or averting his face. He is a glutton for novelty. He prefers animate things over inanimate and likes people more than anything. When a more nine minutes out, an infant prefers a human face to a head-shaped outline. He makes the choice despite the fact that, with delivery room attendants masked and gowned, he has never seen a human face before. By the time he’s twelve hours old, hi s entire body moves in precise synchronic（同时发生）to the sound of a human voice, as if he were dancing. A non-human sound, such as a tapping noise, brings no such response.1. The author points out that the father diapering his first-born son was wrong because（）.2. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?3. What does the sentence “He is a glutton for novelty” probably mean?4. According to the passage, it’s groundless to think that newborns prefer（）.5. What is the passage mainly discussing about?问题1选项A.he believed the baby was not able to hear himB.he thought the baby didn’t have the power of speechC.he was a psychologist unworthy of his professionD.he thought the baby was not capable of any response问题2选项A.A new infant can see only blurry shadows.B.A new infant’s senses are undeveloped.C.All a new infant requires is nourishment, clean diapers, and a warm bassinet.D.A new infant is actually able to influence his or her environment.问题3选项A.The newborn is greedy for new food.B.The newborn tends to overeat.C.The newborn always loves things that are new to him.D.The newborn’s appetite is a constant topic in novels.问题4选项A.a human face to a head-shaped outlineB.animate things to inanimate onesC.human voice to non-human soundsD.nourishment to a warm bassinet问题5选项A.What people know about newborns.B.How wrong parents are when they handle their babies.C.How much newborns have progressed in about a decade’s time.D.Why the first month of life is the most significant four weeks in a lifetime.【答案】第1题:D第2题:D第3题:C第4题:D第5题:A【解析】第1题:推理判断题。

A选项for the sake of“为了”；B选项on behalf of“代表”；C选项in terms of“依据，在……方面”；D选项in accordance with“与……一致”。
句意：在很多时候，我们倾向于依据自己作为一个成年人的经验来解释孩子的行为。

因此C选项正确。

攻读博士学位的学生，一方面应该具备坚实的专业理论基础和扎实的科研能力，另一方面还应该具备较高水平的外语能力。
二、联系导师在初步定好考博学校之后，就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系，询问是否有招生名额，能否报考，这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。
大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。
因为太早，学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定，报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额；太晚的话，怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。
一般情况下，导师对一个学生很中意的话，后来联系的学生，导师一般也不会答应其报考了。
在此说点题外话，联系导师的过程中，如果读研期间的导师有关系，可以尽量利用。
如果没有，也没关系，凭着自己的本事也是可以和考博导师很好的沟通的，这就要看自己了。
通常跟导师初次联系，都是发邮件。
导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种：（1）、欢迎报考。
这种答复最笼统，说明不了问题。
我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通，看看具体的进展，避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。
（2）、名额有限，可以报考，但有竞争。
很多人说这样的回复不满意，认为希望很小一般会被刷。
其实这样还是比较好的一种回答，最起码导师没有骗你而且给你机会去证明自己，考的好就可以上。
(3）、你的研究方向和我一样......各种一大堆他的研究方向和你相关，欢迎报考什么的话。
不可否认，这是最好的情况，你可以放心的去考，一般不会出问题的。
但不排除偶然，像出现直博和本学校的硕转博名额问题，可能会给我们的报考和录取产生影响。
总之考博凭的是实力和自身的本事，关系只是占一部分，自己努力了就行，不用过分纠结于导师回复有没有啥隐含意思的。
初次联系好导师后，一定要注意跟导师保持联系。
每半个月或者一个月向导师汇报一下学习情况或者复习情况，交流一下科研方向，这很有必要。
一方面让导师觉得你很想去跟他深造，另一方面显得你虔诚好学。
三、考博英语备考规划1、整体介绍2015年我校拟招收博士研究生220人总分不低于190分，外语与专业课不低于50分题型介绍Part1词汇和结构15分30道题Part2完型5分10道题Part3阅读理解40分4篇20个小题Part4翻译英译汉15分5个句子Part5写作25分一个10分一个15分2、英语复习推荐用书：育明考博教研部主编的《考博英语真题解析》和《考博词汇》是考博人必备的两本书。
在当当网，亚马逊和全国各大书店均有销售，也可以联系我们直接购买。
3、复习策略、答题技巧、经验分享（1）词汇备考：考博英语词汇量在7000—8000左右。
部分院校，如社科院，对词汇量的要求会比较大，大约会达到10000以上。
虽然不推荐盲目的扩大词汇量，但是足够的单词储备还是会对应试起到比较积极的作用。
根据自身的复习时间和实际需要，可以选择考研词汇、六级词汇、托福词汇、专八词汇、或者GRE词汇进行备考，推荐育明教育考博教研室主编的《考博英语系列教程—考博10000词》进行有针对性的词汇备考。
有很多人在学习英语的过程中，只注重了学习当时的记忆效果，孰不知要想做好学习的记忆工作，是要下一番工夫的。
单纯的注重当时的记忆效果，而忽视了后期的保持和再认同样是达不到良好的效果的，于是就产生了记忆的牢固度问题。
所以我们一直在向强调反复记忆单词，但是如何反复记忆却是一个复杂的工作。
记忆规律可以具体到我们每个人，因为我们的生理特点、生活经历不同，可能导致我们有不同的记忆习惯、记忆方式、记忆特点。
如果与个人记忆特点相悖，记忆效果则会大打折扣。
因此，我们要根据每个人的不同特点，寻找到属于自己的艾宾浩斯记忆遗忘曲线。
但是普遍的记忆规律是：在5分钟后重复一遍，30分钟后再重复一遍，12小时后，1天后，2天后，4天后，7天后，15天后重复记忆，就会记得很牢。
（2）完型备考：实用答题方法A.无关词排除法：完型文章一般都有非常明确的中心主线，且整个文章很紧凑，就是紧紧围绕着中心主线展开。
因此，理论上正确的选项一定是紧扣文章的主题和中心主线的。
故而，一些看上去明显和文章主题和中心主线毫无关系的选项基本上可以排除在正确答案之外。
B.同现词对比法：完型文章由于常常有明确的中心主线，所以作者往往会使用一些重点词汇围绕着中心主线贯穿全文。
同现实际上就是一组具有相同倾向性的词语，这些词语所表现的倾向性往往与中心主线中的导向一致，或者说这些同现词语的任务就是对文章的导向进行展开支持。
因此，文章的整体导向这个已知线索可以成为解出这些同现词语的关键信息。
C.复现词对比法：复现是完型文章中词汇的另一种衔接手段，即表达相同意思的词汇在文章的不同地方出现。
复现可以是相同的词重复出现，也可以是用不同的词表达相同的意思。
复现的解题意义在于：如果判断出一个未知填空与上下文的那些已知词汇有复现关系，只要从选项中选出与那些词汇意义相同的就是正确答案。
D.关联词推断法：关联是完型文章中经常出现的一种结构，即将两个或两个以上的同类别词语，比如两个动词、两个形容词以连续排比的结构出现。
在这种情况下，两个关联词汇在句子中的语法地位一样，且常常起一样的语法作用，之间又明显具有某种逻辑关系。
关联的解题意义在于：出题人一般会将一个关联词语设置成已知信息，另一个是未知的，这样那个已知的词语便成为破解未知词语的关键线索。
F.时间关系解构法：完型文章中出现的时间信息一般都是非常有用的线索，因为只要通过分析这些时间线索就可以很快把握与这些时间线索联系在一起的信息之间的关系。
G.整体结构对照法：由于总分之间的基本关系是互相支持，互相印证的对照关系，而且总述是对分述的总结和概括，而分述是对总述的展开。
当一些未知填空出现在总述句时，解出这些填空的相关联已知线索往往可以在与其对应的分述部分找到。
（3）阅读备考：阅读中各种题目的对策在平时的积累方面，建议经常看看英文网站，看看英文杂志，比如Nature、Science就很不错，当然这只是英文泛读，用于增加英文阅读的兴趣及增加话题的广度。
另外，还需要精读一些文章学习其语言风格、语法结构、行文结构、主题思想等具体内容。
这类文章可以选择考博真题中的阅读理解，也可以选择自己比较喜欢的一些英文美文，但是建议难度要与考博试题难度相当。
A.细节事实题----回到原文，找准出处。
选项中符合一般常识，意义深刻富有哲理，属于普遍现象的往往是答案。
B.判断词汇和短语的意义题内容全面、概括性强的一般为答案；与文章主题相近的一般是答案；与被考单词在含义上肤浅相近的一般不是答案。
C.推理判断题合乎常理的选项一般是答案；选项措辞过于绝对化、找茬原文和对文中做字面解释的的一般不是答案。
D.主旨大意题答案常在首尾段，出现频率高的词可能是蕴含中心思想的关键词；局部信息概括、概括范围过宽的都为错误选项。
E.观点态度题---看清楚态度的对象以及态度的主体。
作者的态度一般会在行文中体现，要关注形容词、副词；引语和实例也会映射作者的态度。
（4）翻译备考：翻译答题要求A.英式思维拆分语法结构在考博翻译中的大部分句子都是结构复杂的长难句，所以理清句子结构层次就显得至关重要。
在翻译句子之前，先通读全句，注意一边读一边拆分句子的语法结构。
例如：例1Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned，orderly，systematic，and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.拆分句子：1.句子的主干是：Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry;2.定语从句：which后面是一个定语从句，其先行词是social science;3.方式状语：in the same reasoned，orderly，systematic，and dispassioned manner是方式状语。
其中的reasoned，orderly，systematic，and dispassioned是并列定语，修饰manner;4.定语从句：that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena是定语从句，其先行词是manner;5.拆分后句子的总结构是：Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry(主干)which seeks to study humans and their endeavors(定语从句)in the same reasoned，orderly，systematic，and dispassioned manner(方式状语)that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.(定语从句)B.直译和意译在考博英语翻译中，由于题材基本上是关于自然科学和社会科学的文章，所以我们遵循的方法是：能直译就直译，既能直译又能意译的以直译为主，不能直译的采用意译，一般情况下直译与意译相结合。
1.能直译就直译例：In dealing with a challenge on such a scale,it is no exaggeration to say,"United we stand,divided we fall".译文：在应付一个如此规模的挑战过程中，我们可以毫不夸张地说，“团结，我们就会站起来；分裂，我们就会倒下去”。
2.不宜直译就意译例：The talk about raising taxes was a red flag to many voters。
译文：关于增税的谈论激怒了许多选民。
分析：原文表层信息--关于增税的谈论对选民来说是一面红旗(红旗对中文读者来说象征着革命)。
原文深层信息--a red flag是令人生气的事物，源于西班牙的斗牛民俗。
斗牛场上，人们用红布来激怒牛。
3.直译与意译相结合例：The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.The world won't end if you don't pass a test.So don't worry excessively about a single test。
