A welding team was repairing a broken track for one of the trains that help carry gold ore to the surface. Suddenly, an acetylene tank sparked and flared flames swept through the tunnel, igniting plastic-covered wiring, which in turn set fire to polyurethane foam that keeps the walls fry and solid. Within minutes the mine shaft filled with thick black smoke containing toxic fumes from the burning plastic. Choking miners immediately fell and died of asphyxiation. When the initial several hours rescue operation ended, 177 were dead, one was missing, and 235 were injured, making Kinross the worst gold-mine disaster in South African history. All but five of the victims were black, and the black-dominated National Union of Mineworkers denounced the “unacc eptably low safety standards” in the mines. In fact, Kinross last year lost its top safety rating. But the mine’s general manager said the plastics that burned had been considered safe. A government investigation is now under way.1. We know that the accident happened_____.A. at nightB. in the daytimeC. at noonD. in the afternoon2. It was_____ that caused the fire.A. an acetylene tankB. plastic-covered wiringC. polyurethane foamD. thick black plastic3. Which of the following statements is true?A.

The plastic that covered the wiring was_____.A. blackB. thickC. poisonousD. gold5. _____of the victims were black.A. FourB. FiveC. MostD. AllTEXT BNICHOLAS MONSARRAT, who has died, aged 69, based “The Cruel Sea,” his runaway bestseller first published in 1951, on his own experiences in the Battle of the Atlantic.In September, 1957, Mr. Desmond Flower, chairman of Cassell Co., handed him the millionth copy of the book. By March, 1964, more than seven copies had been sold.In its 14th year it was still selling at the rate of 30,000 a year. It was translated into 18 languages.Soon of Mr. Keith Monsarrat, a Liverpool surgeon, Nicholas John Turney Morsarrat was articled to a firm of Nottingham solicitor, but preferred the sea to the law.With a typewriter and 40 he went in 1934 to London, where he was soon reduced to sleeping on the Thames Embankment and in St. Martin’s crypt.But then his writing lifted him from the doldrums. Half a dozen books precedes the publication of “The Cruel Sea,” which owed its compelling attraction to the author’s first-hand experience as a lieut-commander with the RNVR, with which he served from 1940 to 1946.Before he joined the Royal Navy he went to Winchester and Trinity College, Cambridge.Winchester re calledThe pungency of Monsarrat’s pen was never better illustrated than with the description of his life at Winchester, which he called “A Season in Hell.”In 1926, he said, the college was “an awful place” and his presence coincided with “a disgusting peak of bullying and tyr anny.” The five years he spent at Winchester represented “a never-to-be-forgotten ordeal.”“Things must since have changed for the better,” he observed in The Sunday Telegraph, which serialized his story. “Indeed”, he added, “there was no other way for th em to go. The only reason I would like to believe in Hell is that these selected candidates might fry in it.”1. Which war did Monsarrat describe in his The Cruel Sea?A. The First World War.B. The Second World War.C. The Great War.D. The First World War and the Second World War.2. By 1958 how many copies of The Cruel Sea had been sold?A. More than a million copies.B. More than seven million copies.C. More than thirty thousand copies.D. More than forty thousand copies.3. The Cruel Sea was popular because ______.A. the author was well-knownB. it was based on personal experienceC. it was full of adventuresD. the plot is interesting4. Which statement is not true?A. Nicholas Monsarrat liked adventure.B. Nicholas Monsarrat hates his school.C. Nicholas Monsarrat slept rough in London by choice.D. Nicholas Monsarrat wrote the novel based on personal experience.5. According to Nicholas Monsarrat, his life at Winchester was _____.A. miserableB. happyC. dullD. excitingTEXT CHow can the U.S. Government raise tax revenues without raising taxes? One way may be to get tax evaders to pay up. To encourage those truants to come forth, Washington is considering introducing its first tax-amnesty program--one that would allow the cheaters to clear their consciences without penalty. Supporters of the idea say that a six-month amnesty could raise up to $25 billion from guilt-redden Americans. And congressional supporters of the plan say that the states have shown amnesty can work. In the last three years 18 states have offered amnesty programs. Among the success stories: New York raised $334 million in three months; Massachusetts took in $85 million.Fair share: But not everyone is a convert. Internal Revenue Service Commissioner Roscoe L. Egger Jr. told the House Ways and Means Committee last week that he believes the collection estimates are overstated. Most of the critics denounced the idea as an insult to those who pay their fair share. “It penalizes honest people and is one of the worst proposals I’ve ever heard,” says Republican Budget Committee member Sen. Slade Gorton. Egger, along with Treasury Secretary James A. Baker III, noted that amnesty could make future tax collection even more difficult by suggesting the possibility of future amnesties. Backers of the plan say the government must vow that it would be a one-time offer, and that stricter enforcement would follow. The administration has yet to take a stand on amnesty, but the lure of billions of dollars in new revenues may be hard to resist.1. How can the U.S. Government raise tax revenues?A. By punishing tax evaders.B. By protecting honest people.C. By making the “truants” pay their tax in full.D. By improving the tax rate.2. Which of the following is the view of the supporters of the tax-amnesty program?A. The tax-amnesty idea is an insult to honest people.B. The tax-amnesty program would raise a large amount of money.C. Amnesty could adversely affect future tax collection.D. The tax-amnesty idea is an insult to dishonest people.3. Why is it likely that amnesty will cause more difficulties?A. Because it may create more cheaters.B. Because it will need strict enforcement.C. Because it may lure the administration to make more money.D. Because it may create less cheaters.4. How many states have introduced amnesty programs?A. Twenty-fiveB. TwoC. EighteenD. None5. Which of the following ideas is not mentioned in the text?A. Amnesty will allow all the cheaters to have clear consciences.B. Amnesty can work.C. New York has benefited from amnesty.D. A，B and C.PRRT IV PARAPHRASE.

Pat and Bobwere quite bright, but Mike was rather dull.One day as Pat and Mike were walking down the sidewalk together, Pat put his hand on a solid brick wall and said, "Mike, hit my hand as hard as you can." Mike struck a hard blow, but Pat pulled his hand away from the wall just before Mike's fist hit it. Of course, it hurt Mike's hand very much when he hit the wall, but Pat said, "That was a good joke on you, wasn't it?" Mike agreed, but was not too happy.The following day Mike and Bob were walking in the town square. Mike decided to play the joke on Bob. He looked around, and seeing no solid object, he placed his hand over his face and said, "Bob, hit my hand as hard as you can." Bob agreed, and as he struck a hard blow with his fist, Mike quickly pulled his hand away and wasanalysis of it. The second guy is so amazed that he says to the mermaid, "Hey, triple my IQ."

"Please," says the mermaid, "you don't know what you're asking... It'll change your entire view of the universe. Won't you ask for something else? A million dollars or anything?"But no matter what the mermaid says, the guy insists on having his IQ increased by five times its usual power. So the mermaid sighs and says, "Done."

Do you have any hard facts to back up this impression?Dr. Herring: Yes. I've done a research project using randomly selected e-mailmessages from online discussion groups. I found that females uselanguage that is more collaborative and supportive such as "Thanksfor all your tips on...", "Good point." and "Hope this helps!".

Maybe females just should not expect too much. Life isn't a fairy tale after all.John: It's absolutely true. Sometimes I feel that there isn't any difference in the roles both genders can perform. Of course I'm not saying that men can give birth.Rather what I meant was except for the physical and natural differences between both sexes, there isn't much difference between them.Cathy: But honestly, although I don't expect guys to open doors for me, or to pull outa chair for me, I am usually quite impressed if they do so, as many guys don'tdo it nowadays. If the guy was walking in front of me and went through thedoor first, I'd appreciate it if he could hold the door and not let it slam in myface.John: Well, if I'm the one walking in front, I will open the door and hold it for the people behind me, be it a girl or a boy. I actually had the door slam right in my face a number of times though, when the person walking closely in front of me didn't hold the heavy glass door and let it swing back in my face. Of course, I tried to hold the door, but it was too heavy and too late. But I think it was more embarrassing for him than me as everyone was looking at him, while I was rubbing my squashed nose.Cathy: So being a gentleman does not stop at opening doors.

I had trouble deciding which clock to buy. While I held one clock in my hand and looked at another, I asked my son which one he liked better.“The one you’re holding with the mouse in it, Mom,” he said.Before I understood his words, a real, live mouse jumped out onto the counter and ran away. I screamed so loud everyone turned to see what was wrong. I was so embarrassed. I tried to make my way quietly out of the store. Everyone was looking at me.

B 2. D3. A4. C5. DListening 4It is my belief that gender stereotypes are very real gender characteristics that are exaggerated to the extreme ends with no gray areas. So in truth a woman is "weak" physically only because a man is in reality "stronger". A woman is "submissive" only because a man in reality is more "aggressive". A woman is "emotional" only because a man is "less emotional". All these are observed facts.Are there ways to avoid the stereotyping? This is hard to do. We as males and females love to exaggerate our differences. It seems we love to do this in many ways.We love to exaggerate gender traits as if to say "Look how female I am" or "Look how male I am". Do we go so far as to actually create differences that do not exist? Not from what I see. I think we like to exaggerate our differences because the more male we feel or the more female we feel the more attractive we feel.So all in all I believe stereotypes are true differences that are exaggerated. I don't think stereotypes should be avoided because they are real. I do think that we should not place extremes of a trait to a gender as a whole and most certainly not limit someone's potential abilities based on a stereotype. Stereotypes should apply in general but not to an individual.

The Goddess of Wealth said, "We want you to judge between us who is the most beautiful."The merchant did not know what to say. He knew he was between the devil and the deep blue sea. If he said that Wealth was more beautiful than Poverty, Poverty would curse him. If he said that Poverty was more beautiful than Wealth, Wealth would abandon him. However, he became calm and said, "I have great respect for you both. Would you please do what I ask of you? It is the only way I can judge properly." The Goddesses agreed. He said, "Mother Wealth, would you please walk towards my house? Mother Poverty, Would you please walk away from my house? This way I can see you both better, from near and far." The two Goddesses did what the merchant had asked them to do. Then the merchant confidently declared, "Mother Wealth! You appear most beautiful when you are nearest my house. Mother Poverty! You looktiles on the roofs, many of these houses now have living roofs. The wooden top of the house is covered with a special waterproof plastic material. On top of this there is soil, in which grass and flowers are planted. Such a roof can be very beautiful. But this really is not a new idea. When the early settlers came to the United States, they often made their houses by digging into the ground. Their roofs were made of wood, and covered by large areas of soil with grass or turf. They were warm, though not always waterproof. People replaced these houses and roofs as soon as they could live in regular wooden homes with wooden or metal roofs. Now, 200 years later, some people think of this as a new idea. But I think, "There is nothing new under the sun."1. 1) partly underground 2) living 3 ) digging into the ground 4) grass waterproofQuestions:1.

It was the Italians.Woman: No, it says here, the first TV transmission was in London, 1925.

He's got two large bags over his shoulders. The guard stops him and says, "What's in the bags?""Sand," answered Juan.The guard says, "We'll just see about that. Get off the bike." The guard takes the two bags and rips them apart; he empties them out and finds nothing in them but sand. He detains Juan overnight and has the sand analyzed, only to discover that there is nothing but pure sand in the bags.The guard releases Juan, puts the sand into new bags, hefts them onto the man'sLater, people learned to mix different clays together to make stronger pottery and to put the pottery in a fire oven so that the clay would harden faster. The potter's wheel was invented in China around 3,100 BC. The wheel spins clay like a top. It allows people to make pottery much more quickly and make shapes that were perfectly symmetrical—bowls that were really round, rather than lumpy or uneven. Pottery is not only considered one of the first inventions but also one of the first art forms. Most types of pottery have been painted with figures or designs; some even tell a story!1. B A C2. 1.The oldest known piece of pottery was found in china and dates back to 7900BC(and was made almost 10,000 years ago).2. It was used for holding water ,milk ,seeds, and grains.3.

She found that powdered food coloring mixed with vodka would work.Michael: That's quite a combination.Cathy: Then, for her "canvas", she melted white chocolate and molded it flat.She even learned how to make chocolate frames.Michael: What kind of art did she create?Cathy: She copied the works of famous painters. She displayed her candy art in the candy shop and customers would come in just to look at the art.Michael: What did her family think then?Cathy: They didn't take her seriously until the Toledo Museum of Art heard about her works and paid her to paint 77 reproductions of works intheir collection. That was her first big job. Now she works full-timeidea of making his own puppet show. He made a stage from wooden orange boxes and his mother's old curtains. He charged 2 cents for admission and earned 32 cents for his first performance.Spinney's family liked his creativity and encouraged him to do more . For Christmas when he was nine, his older brother made him a better puppet theater and his mother secretly sewed eight colorful puppets for him. Spinney later wrote, "The more I gave shows, the more I felt the power that one has when performing. All these people would sit in a room and listen to everything I said. I did all the character voices: little girl voices, an old lady voice, and a ghost voice. The audience listened and clapped atthe end, and also paid me to do it. What could be a better way to make a living than to perform? I knew that I would wind up in the world of entertainment."Spinney continued giving puppet shows. When he decided to go to art school, puppet shows helped him pay for his tuition. Even when he was in the army, he managed to continue giving puppet shows. He knew he wanted to do this as his life's work and that he wanted his audience to be children. When he was given the opportunity to create the character of Big Bird on "Sesame Street", he accepted it and over the years has made Big Bird one of the most beloved characters on American television.although it's really cold, you can still get a tan. Of course, the scenery is beautiful and it's really nice when you're tired to go and have a hot drink afterwards. The problem is that it's very expensive and really dangerous.

Advertisers trying to sell a product would often turn to baseball stars because the public knew them and loved them. Now looking at today's baseball players, the only time we seem to hear about them is when they are complaining about their salaries. Baseball is no longer the great national pastime, and kids are looking elsewhere for their role models.Back in the 1930s and 1940s, money wasn't such an important issue. Players playedThere was no atmosphere. So we brought in a pool table and fruit machines. When players choose to spend time together, it generates a better atmosphere.The team spirit is very important, but I don't believe in motivating the team as a team.I don’t give team talks. I try to motivate the team as individuals. I speak to the players individually and try not to put too much pressure on anyone. I believe players perform best when they are relaxed. If they're too tense, I can guarantee they won't play well.I also believe in giving people autonomy. I like all the people who work for me to be autonomous. I very rarely interfere. I feel people should be judged on their results. Ifthey prove incompetent, then I'm incompetent if I continue employing them.It's like that with the team. I get criticized for not interfering during a game and for not making more substitutions. But I feel if I've chosen those 11 players to get a result, then I should leave them alone to get on with it.If I'm dropping a player from the team, I don't feel I have to explain it to them. If they want to discuss it, I'll say, "Come back and talk about it in a couple of days' time." But I don't try to remotivate them. It's up to them to have the character to fight their way back to the team. I'm a great believer that almost everything you achieve in life isas an occasion for propaganda. But why should the feelings of a few spoil it for all those who continue to be inspired by the Games?No! As long as the majority wants it, these Games will continue. This is sport, not politics, and it should remain so.1. 1.What is said about the purpose of the Olympic Games? C2.What is said about the spirit of the Olympic Games ?

I want to win a gold medal for Sweden.Karen: Well, I hope you do. Thank you, Bo Lundquist. Next we have Bob Smith with me in the studio. Bob's a long distance runner and theAmerican 3000 meters champion.Bob: Hi!Karen: Hello, Bob. How is your training going?Bob: Fine, just fine. I have a really good program and I think I'm infirst-class condition.Karen: Tell me about it, Bob.Bob: Well, I don't like training early in the morning. I don't know why. I just don't like it. So I start around 10 o’clock.Karen: Mmm. And what about having lunch?People in tropical countries can read about winter sports but are unable to participate in them. They cannot build snowmen, throw snowballs, toboggan, or ice-skate. Above all, they cannot go skiing.Someone defined skiing as gliding over the ground on two boards. The sport is popular in America in the states which have snow in the winter months. The pleasure we take in this healthy outdoor activity is shared by the Finns, the Russians, the Swedes, the Norwegians, the Germans, the Italians, the Swiss, and the French, who also live in temperate zones with winter climates. But what must people from Egypt, Libya, and Nigeria think of this strange sport?Skiing, unlike tennis and baseball, is not a city sport. Until recently, even in countries with snow, it was limited to mountainous regions. Now there is a new variation that can be enjoyed by everyone.

Then write down the answers on the Answer Sheet.16. In 1979, the Shah of Iran was admitted to the United States for medical reasons. The Iranians reacted by holding all the diplomatic personnel hostage in the embassy in Iran. The secretary of state was Henry Kissinger, and the president was Jimmy Carter. The United States took the position that the Iranians should not be upset with the Shah being allowed into the United States for the humanitarian reason of medical need. The Shah had been a friend to the United States and the United States to the Shah; therefore, the U.S government felt a certain obligation to Shah. The revolution in Iran was based on Islamic religious assumptions.17. A U.S. American woman executive is sent to negotiate a contract with a corporation in Saudi Arabia. She dresses conservatively in a dark business suit and completes her makeup and hair as she would in the United States. She finds the Arabs to be very aloof. She is asked when her boss will be arriving and is basically feeling ignored.18. A group of high-powered businessmen from New York arrived in Mexico City to give a presentation. They had timed detailed agendas; a long contract; and specific plans for a joint venture. They distributed the materials, said they were pressed for time, and needed to complete the meeting so they could catch their plane. The Mexicans sat very quietly during the presentation. After the presentation, the New Yorkers on their way home congratulated themselves on their success. The Mexicans, however, felt they would not be able to work with these New Yorkers.19. Ching Lee was transferred by his Asian firm to assume a managerial position in a large automobile production plant in the United States.

English—Chinese Translation (15 points, 3 points each)Directions: In this section you are supposed to translate the underlined sentences into Chinese. Then write down the answers on the Answer Sheet.In China it is relatively usual to ask people their age, but in the West this question is generally regarded as impolite. 26. This is particularly true of women, and even more so if the inquirer is a man.27. However , it is very normal to ask children their age , and some adults may not mind being asked either. 28. In fact , some elderly people are quite happy to reveal their age, especially if they feel they look young for their age. Nevertheless, it is not very wise to ask a direct question like ‘How old are you?’ If elderly people want to talk about their age , and perhaps receive a compliment on how young they look, they may easily bring up the topic themselves, and ask the other person to guess how old they are. In such a situation, it is quite acceptable to discuss age freely. 29. They normally expect to be complimented on their youthfulness, though , rather than to be told that they look very old.Even though Westerners do not usually ask people directly how old they are, this does not mean that they are not interested to know how old other people are. They may ask someone else for the information, or else they may try to approach the topic indirectly. 30. Sometimes discussion about educational background and the years of working experience may provide some clues, but this is not always the case.。

《新编英语教程》第四册-期末考试部分答案----以及课后练习册
1 Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly.2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die.3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing.4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering.5The whole church became a sea of great joy.6When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen”extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God.Unit41 I argue plainly that making marks in a book is not something done to spoil it but to show its worth and value.2 Getting the book by payment is merely a preparatory step on the way to ownership.3 Only when you have fully absorbed it can you say that you own the book completely.4 The third kind of book owners possess only a few or many books, but every one of them is worn, with the corners of the leaves folded over, and has become less tightly bound because of constant use. There are marks and informally written notes in each book from cover to cover.5 I would never mark pages of a first edition copy of Paradise Lost, just as I would not give my baby a set of coloured pencils and a painting by Rembrandt in the original.6 If the elaborate cover, style of printing or layout prevent you from marking up a book, then you'd better buy a cheap edition in which you can show your respect to the writer (i.e., by writing notes in it).7 If you write notes in the book yourself, the words and sentences will stand out more distinctly in your mind and last longer in your memory.8 Don't believe that a reader is only expected to take in passively what is in the book(i.e., the reader should also contribute).9 Comprehension is a process involving both reception and production. If you remain a container ready only to receive, you cannot expect to learn very much.1 The ground looked black because it was covered with numerous black ants. These vigorous, strong and powerful ants, without paying any attention to the boy, were moving quickly towards the wounded buck which was struggling helplessly. The ants looked like brightly shining black water running through the grass.2 Just as he took a breath, feeling pity for the buck and somehow afraid, the buck was no longer on its feet and became silent.3 He looked closely at the twisting body of the buck covered with black ants; its only movement now was short, quick twitches.4 The thought well expressed his growing feeling of anger and unhappiness, and objection to what was happening.5 Near him the ants were gradually going home in small groups with bits of pink meat in their mouths and there was in the air a sharp fresh smell, that of blood and fresh raw flesh.6 People might think the buck had been lying there for years, if there had not been scraps of pink meat on the white bone.7 The buck, walking around happily and proudly with its beautiful white tail swishing from side to side, had breathed in and smelt the cold morning air.Unit91 The mothers had already learned the news before their sons could stammer it out.2 The news spread from one brush house to another and continued to travel fast into the town.3 When the doctor realized that Kino was the man who had asked for his help, he became both serious (about the treatment) and wise ／clever (about how he could gain).4 For a moment the doctor's eyes were focussed on nothing as his thoughts turned to Paris.5 The news caused a profound “negative force”to be at work in the town. This could be compared to a scorpion, which causes pain, or the hunger created by the smell of food, or feeling of loneliness which comes when love is refused.6 What acted as the “venom producing bag”of the town, i.e., the increasing selfinterest in the townspeople, began to create poison which afflicted the whole town with a negative force.1 He gives us not what is happening outside himself but the deepest, most essential expression of himself as a person and member of the human race.2 If a composer wants to be in any way a great artist, he must have his own individuality. This may be very important or not important at all but as far as significant music is concerned, it will reflect that individuality.3 His personality may include many human weaknesses, as did Lully's and Wagner's, but excellence in his music will still stem from those aspects of his personality which are excellent.4 A composer's style is formed from the interrelationship between his personality and his own period.5 There is no need to argue about the part that an interpreter plays.6 Most contemporary first class musicians have instruments which are very satisfactory for them to meet any challenge in a composition.7 The musical notation cannot be the exact transcription of a composer's thought both because it is ambiguous and because it provides freedom for personal taste and choice.8 The joint efforts of composer and interpreter have significance only when they are appreciated by listeners who understand music.(or, Whether the joint efforts of composer and interpreter have meaning or not depends on whether they are understood by a number of sensible listeners.)9 That shows that the listener is duty bound to fully appreciate or understand music.10 By that piece of wit, he undoubtedly wanted to suggest that only when a listener becomes truly concerned about music will he be of interest and value both to music and its composers.Unit81We learn from the astronauts that if we look “down”from space, we will find the most conspicuous ／outstanding characteristic of Earth to be the thick layer of ice which is Antarctica, which sends light overthe southernmost part of the southern hemisphere.2One hundred and sixty years ago, however, nobody had ever seen this enormous continent, and had certainly not walked on it. Even today whether we can occupy it or not is still uncertain. Further, we know relatively little about it.3The differences between the Arctic and the Antarctic are greater than the similarities. (or, There are more differences than similarities between the Arctic and Antarctic.) The Arctic is tightly surrounded by the continents of Europe, America and Asia where there are permanent populations; whereas the Antarctic is unconnected to anywhere else, separated from the nearest land by vast areas of the world's roughest seas.4Under such conditions, a person could only stand for a few seconds, and that was by leaning forward to form an angle of 45°with the ground.5It is not surprising that although man did not hesitate to explore and take possession of most of the earth in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, the continent in the far south was left untouched.ⅣTranslation1 I can't drive a car, let alone fly an airplane.2 The Arctic is populated with people of different nationalities. (TheAntarctic, in contrast,) has no permanent residents because the climate there is unfavourable to human survival.3Although she felt like a normal person after the heart surgery, the doctor insisted that she should go to the hospital for examination every other day.4Small wonder they lost the games time and again; they had been out of training for quite some time.5I am inclined to think that there will be strong opposition to our reform plan among quite many board members.6The employees of the company at all levels think of their new manager as far sighted, resourceful and highly competitive.7No matter who he is or where he is from, we cannot condone anyone's behaviour that is injurious to social order.8Those who claimed to have set eyes on the mysterious savage in the forest all affirmed that the most distinctive feature of the savage was its huge size.9As regards the quality of the drinking water on that small island, the explorers who set foot on the island reported that it was sweet, pleasant and refreshing.10As far as the business profits are concerned, the main drawback of the publication of academic treatises is that they usually do not sell well, with an average number of only several hundred copies foreach printing.。

新编英语教程4_李观仪版练习册答案Unit 1TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for referenceA 1 As the saying goes As you sow so will you reap which means whatever a man sows he will reap The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Years resolutions also follows this im The more resolutions you make at the beginning of the year the better results you will have2 He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions He wrote out a long of resolutions He wanted to make a different man of himself a loving father and an ideal husband梑y trying to attend to everyones needse 3 Having written a long list of resolutions he longed to put them into practice thinking that they would be a great success4 Judging from the information given in the text he was a serious and strict father to the children He did not like to be bothered with questions He never treated them as his equals He showed no interest in their friends nor in what they were doing Having a quick temper he got excited easilyand often yelled at them He did not allow any mischievous behaviour to go on at home He was one of those husbands who did not like to lift a finger to help his wife and do household chores What he did in his free time was enjoy himself thoroughly He had a good time at parties and liked to stay out late even if this meant he had a headache the next day At home what he did most of the time was either watch a footfall match or read the newspaper5 He tried to be considerate and helpful but failed All his efforts to be a good busband went contrary to his expectations The whole family was thrown into disorder and confusion His wife was annoyed by his good manners and smart remarks thinking they were affected and that he was being sarcastio on purpose She attributed his cheerfulness good temper and thoughtfulness to not feeling his best after staying out late6 He wanted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately On New Years Day he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood eager to render any service to his wife and children He did everything of his own accord He was considerate to his wife to the minutest detail and he graciously condescended to play jacks with Gretchen build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected The writer behaved like a changed man What he did was suddenly totally different from what he used to do so his family was unprepared for this change Thats why to them his behaviour was too good to be truehis temper was too good to be believed and his thoughtfulness was too great to be natural7 It meansThe whole family are happy to see that your have come tobe your usual self again and you are behaving naturally At last everything will go back to normalB Reference version1 Quite obviously anyone who was determined to be guided by the rules of self improvement I collected would be happy and have a richer life infinite affection

similar household expenses Mary have charge cards to pay for petrol and service station expenses and credit cards for restaurant hotel and travel costsMany other people however prefer to pay as they

saw the shape of a policeman approaching He did not want to give up He still wanted to make an effort to escape He rose to his feet quietly and tiptoed over to the far end of the roof thinking that he could perhaps slide down the drainpipe Just at that moment the policeman strode forward and was about to grab the boy by the collar when unaware of a clothesline in his way which caught his cap he

2TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for referenceA 1 English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world In 1500 English was an insignificant language spoken by the people living on a small island Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more When people speak English we may be able to tell which English it isAmerican English Australian English British English Indian English and so on Besides for different purposes we use different Englishes everyday English business English commercial English diplomatic English medical English scientific English technical English legal English journalistic English and so on We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English informal English and colloquial English2 Style expresses the writers individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns and his selection and arrangement of material Style frequently reflects the writers personality mood attitudes education and general background There are different kinds of styles homely coarse refined ironic vulgar plain childlike formal informal wordy colloquial direct grandiloquent and so on We choose words to suit the audience the occasion the topic and the genre eg short story essay argumentation Certain words exact and concrete as they are are excluded from formal use because they are not appropriate for formal occasions It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement or the other way round if a very formal style long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter Yet if we have some idea of different styles but dont know whento use which this knowledge is worse than useless3 This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal languageHere is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism In a letter of application you begin thusDear SirsI am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department If you hve not yet employed anyone I should like my application for the position to be consideredAnd you conclude withAs to my character and fitness for the job please rest assured that I am sure smart In this last sentence job may be rather too informal employment or post would be more suitable Smart is a colloquialism that means 搈entally alert quickf witted and talented Moreover the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial and so it is inappropriate for the letter4 Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts To be in good use of English therefore a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances K 225 Coy means shy diffident bashful What the writer means here isDo away with your shyness Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words Stop deceiving people and beatingabout the bush Call a spade a spade6 Some examples of euphemisms1 a mental home ＝ an insane asylumslow ＝ dull in mindresidence ＝ housea reconditioned automobile ＝ a used carstout ＝fatThe above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses2 skin tonic ＝cold cream The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily3 Goodness me Goodness gracious Thank goodness For goodness sake It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in ones speech so goodness is used instead of God4 Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry this is called transfer of population This is quoted from George Orwells Politics and the English Language Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal harsh stark political realities7 The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms some euphemisms having considerable vigour and vitality can still be used as far as he is concerned8 It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism ie that any effort to avoid unpleasantness will end in failure because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same negative connotationas the word it has replaced There is thus no sense in using euphemismsB Reference version1 The richer life experience we have and the more people from all walks of life we know we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises2 If we do not know when to use each style appropriately or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use or even worse3 Neither bags of fun nor extremely gracious in its suitable context is a careless casual expression of ones ideas4 It would however also be absurd foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way roundK 235 Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting artificial and pretentious6 Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away7 Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny They are so unusual that they become quite funny8 Some people may also like extreme understatementTEXT ⅡComprehension1 C2 C3 A4 B5 B6 CTEXT ⅢComprehension1 F The euphemistic term for dustmen in the US simply sounds more prosperous2 T3 F He is put in prison but the name for prison is adjustment centre4 F There are but the term poor people has been replaced by the euphemism the underprivileged5 F There are more euphemisms in English than in many other languagesGUIDED WRITINGSentence CombinationReference versionProverbs probably as old as our civilization form an important part of our heritage Children can learn basic lessons from them For example they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say Waste not want not Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling Honesty is the best policy Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that Little strokes fell great oaks And many tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that A soft answer turns away wrath or that Two cannot quarrel if one wontK 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world whether the language is written or not In fact where the language has not been written proverbs are one of the principal ways the people pass down their philosophy of life from one generation to another thus preserving theirmost precious heritageCOMPREHENSIVE

restaurant I heard somebody say Take what youve got and never want more I called the Chinese Embassy and asked the young lady who answered exactly what that meant Did they really have such a proverb She replied that it was indeed an old Chinese proverb and similar in meaning to our A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush I told her I was so glad that we had something in common and thanked her It was then that I decided to find out if the rest of the world had this proverb in common with us I had no trouble in my quest as far as the Spanish Embassy was concerned When I asked for the Spanish version of A bird etc the bright but highly amused young woman came up immediately with Better to have one in hand than a hundred flyingⅢ Listening ComprehensionA 1 F Not everyone laughs at the same

guilty man apprehends danger in every soundK 254 Her soft voice and gracious smile put everyone in the room at ease5 Not until you have a good command of a scale of styles can you speak English appropriately in different situations6 His haphazard knowledge of modern economics was one of the reasons why he failed in his business7 The new general manager did not feel very comfortable with the way he was addressed by his colleagues in the company8 No matter how hard he had tried his efforts to improve his image in the mind of the public proved to be ineffective9 It was the last thing that occurred to the commander that his soldiers would defy／disobey his orders10 Although the composition teacher considers these expressions nothing but cliches they appeal very much to the studentsB Reference versionWe should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we usethe English language in different ways This fact however is often forgotten When we think about language we too often think only of the more formal forms especially the written forms But we are not always reading and writing We use slang or at least colloquial forms with friends and acquaintances In certain social situations we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors We use high sounding language on important occasions We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe We express feelings to one person or to a group We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes For a native speaker of English his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him

an opportunity for soul of her nephew to be saved she couldnt help feeling excited She was looking forward to the special meeting for children unable to hide her eagerness2 She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside Being a child of twelve he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life3 The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail the old black women wearing plaits and weather beaten old men weather beaten indicates their rich experience of life Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus the child didnt think it could be untrue The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible4 1 It is first mentioned by the childs aunt in the second paragraph as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved2 In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to seeJesus3 It is repeated in the seventh paragraph when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus4 It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy since Jesus didnt punish Westley for telling a lie5 The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph when it ends up in Langstons self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned5 He believed that many old people certainly knew better that God would come into his life He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat the crowd and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation As he hadnt seen Jesus he didnt want to lie and say he had for he was basically an honest boy6 The lessons he learned were1 He couldnt resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should People old and young men and women all believed in the existence of almighty God he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourners bench to be saved and say Jesus had come2 If he didnt want to hold everything up and if he wanted to save further trouble he had better lie The proverb Honesty is the best policy he learned did not always apply3 Religion was not what he wanted He couldnt and wouldnt believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie7 He was saved from sin in an ironic sense He was compelled to commita sin ie to lie in order to be saved from sinB Reference version1 Every night for weeks the priests gave sermons and people sang songs in praise of God worshipped God and shouted for joy Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly2 The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation His speech was marvellously regular and melodious it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain grief and suffering loud and happy as well as lonely cries and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die3 The whole building shook with all the praying and singing4 All the people attending church service prayed only for me their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering5 The whole church became a sea of great joy6 When everything became quiet again during a respectful silence which was broken only by several people saying Amen extremely joyfully and happily all the

Unit 1TEXT ⅠComprehensionAnswers for reference:A. 1. As the saying goes, “As you sow, so will you reap”, which means whatever a man sows he will reap. The writer intends to convince the reader that making New Year's resolutions also follows this maxim. The more resolutions you make at the beginning of the year, the better results you will have.2. He had read a number of books on self improvement before he made his resolutions. He wrote out a long list of resolutions. He wanted to make a different man of himself —a loving father and an ideal husband—by trying to attend to everyone's needs.3. Having written a long list of resolutions, he longed to put them into practice, thinking that they would be a great success.4. Judging from the information given in the text, he was a serious and strict father to the children. He did not like to be bothered with questions. He never treated them as his equals. He showed no interest in their friends nor in what they were doing. Having a quick temper, he got excited easily and often yelled at them. He did not allow any mischievous behaviour to go on at home. He was one of those husbands who did not like to lift a finger to help his wife and do household chores. What he did in his free time was enjoy himself thoroughly. He had a good time at parties and liked to stay out late even if this meant he had a headache the next day. At home, what he did most of the time was either watch a footfall match or read the newspaper.5. He tried to be considerate and helpful, but failed. All his efforts to be a good busband went contrary to his expectations. The whole family was thrown into disorder and confusion. His wife was annoyed by his good manners and smart remarks, thinking they were affected and that he was being sarcastio on purpose. She attributed his cheerfulness, good temper and thoughtfulness to not feeling his best after staying out late.6. He wanted to do better but did not know how to do it appropriately. On New Year's Day, he was in a particularly cheerful and good mood, eager to render any service to his wife and children. He did everything of his own accord. He was considerate to his wife to the minutest detail and he graciously condescended to play jacks with Gretchen, build a snowman for the boys and strike up a conversation with Kit. But the result in every case proved to be just the opposite to what he had expected. The writer behaved like a changed man. What he did was suddenly totally different from what he used to do, so his family was unprepared for this change. That's why, to them, his behaviour was too good to be true—his temper was too good to be believed, and his thoughtfulness was too great to be natural.7. It means:“The whole family are happy to see that your have come to be your usual self again and yo u are behaving naturally. At last everything will go back to normal.”B. Reference version:1. Quite obviously, anyone who was determined to be guided by the rules of self improvement I collected would be happy and have a richer life, infinite affection from his family and the love and respect of the community.2. Show your love readily and willingly.3. Whole hearted and genuine praise is really valuable.4. Join your children and treat them as your equals.5. I heard screams down the hall one after another and I found Gretchen crying.6. The most unimportant light task may turn out to be worthwhile if it is dealt with eagerly and with interest.7. I started to have a conversation with Kit in a friendly way and tried my best to achieve close agreement and understanding between us.8. You never troubled yourself to chat with people in the past. Why do you want to start doing it now?TEXT ⅡComprehension1. F (He knew this beforehand, but he had to go there because he felt the bank was the only place to keep his money safely.)2. T3.

Cheques are commonly used to pay rent, for utilities, and telephone bills and can also be used to make purchases while credit cards are mainly used to make purchases.Credit cards are pieces of plastic, usually 5.5cm. by 8.5cm. They are issued by banks and stores that want people to spend more money. When purchasing something, the buyer will give his credit card to the seller. The seller will check the information on the card and record it, accept the card instead of accepting money. The seller will give the buyer a receipt and another receipt goes to the bank. The bank will then send a bill to the buyer, usually after 30 days.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

DictationThe United States is becoming more and more a “cashless society”. People are making purc hases by cheque, charge accounts or credit cards, rather than carrying large amounts of money in their pockets or purses.Normally people pay by cheque at the end of each month at department stores and some food markets and drugstores. They also pay monthly by cheque for rent, telephone calls, electricity, milk, newspaper deliveries, and similar household expenses. Mary have charge cards to pay for petrol and service station expenses and credit cards for restaurant, hotel, and travel costs.Many other people, however, prefer to pay as they go and not accumulate monthly bills. Most people work out a combination, paying some bills in cash and charging others. This is a matter of personal choice. But if you have charge accounts, be sure to pay promptly; the interest charged for late payments can be high.K 14Ⅲ. Listening ComprehensionA.

Reference version:K 15Joe had dodged the police many times, but never like this. He was afraid. He was sprawled on the rooflistening for sounds. Somewhere below people were yelling and shrieking, but he was not concerned about the commotion. He looked round, searching for any sign of a policeman. When he heard some footsteps on the corrugated iron roof, he was seized with fear. What made them chase after me, he thought. I haven't done anything. You shouldn't have sneaked up here, he said to himself.Then he saw the shape of a policeman approaching. He did not want to give up. He still wanted to make an effort to escape. He rose to his feet quietly and tiptoed over to the far end of the roof, thinking that he could perhaps slide down the drainpipe. Just at that moment, the policeman strode forward and was about to grab the boy by the collar when, unaware of a clothesline in his way which caught his cap, he almost stumbled. Joe was startled, but he could go back no further. The policeman steadied himself and reached out for the boy.Ⅴ．Blank FillingA. 1. down 2. for 3. down, down4. after5. back6. on7. in8. off9. out10. for11. in, out12. out13. to14. over15. upB.

English has now become one of the most widely used languages in the world. In 1500, English was an insignificant language, spoken by the people living on a small island. Now it is spoken as the first language by over a quarter of a billion people and as a second language by many millions more. When people speak English, we may be able to tell which English it is—American English, Australian English, British English, Indian English and so on. Besides, for different purposes, we use different Englishes: everyday English, business English, commercial English, diplomatic English, medical English, scientific English, technical English, legal English, journalistic English and so on. We also use different degrees of formality and can differentiate between formal English, informal English, and colloquial English.2. Style expresses the writer's individuality through his choice of words and sentence patterns, and his selection and arrangement of material. Style frequently reflects the writer's personality, mood, attitudes, education, and general background. There are different kinds of styles: homely, coarse, refined, ironic, vulgar, plain, childlike, formal, informal, wordy, colloquial, direct, grandiloquent, and so on. We choose words to suit the audience, the occasion, the topic, and the genre (e.g., short story, essay, argumentation). Certain words, exact and concrete as they are, are excluded fromformal use, because they are not appropriate for formal occasions. It would be absurd if slang terms or vulgarisms were used to address an audience at commencement, or the other way round, if a very formal style, long sentences and complex grammatical structures were used in a friendly letter. Yet if we have some idea of different styles, but don't know when to use which, this knowledge is worse than useless.3. This is an example of a very formal expression alongside a colloquialism. Bags of fun is a slang term whereas extremely gracious is very formal language.Here is another example of the same kind to show the inappropriateness of a formal style mixed with colloquialism. In a letter of application, you begin thus:Dear Sirs,I am writing to you in the hope that you still have a vacant place in your department. If you hve not yet employed anyone, I should like my application for the position to be considered....And you conclude with:As to my character and fitness for the job, please rest assured that I am sure smart. In this last sentence, job may be rather too informal; employment or post would be more suitable. Smart is a colloquialism that means “mentally alert, quick witted, and t alented”. Moreover, the sentence I am sure smart is very informal and colloquial, and so it is inappropriate for the letter.4. Good use of English requires the appropriate choice of words for the expression of thoughts. To be in “good use of English”, therefore, a word must be used appropriately in a specific set of circumstances.K 225. Coy means “shy, diffident, bashful”. What the writer means here is:“Do away with your shyness. Decide what you want to say and say it as directly as possible in plain words. Stop deceiving people and beating about the bush. Call a spade a spade.”6. Some examples of euphemisms:1) a mental home (＝an insane asylum)slow (＝dull in mind)residence (＝house)a reconditioned automobile (＝a used car)stout (＝fat)The above words and phrases in italics are supposed to be more pleasant substitutes for those in parentheses.2) skin tonic (＝cold cream. The term skin tonic may help the manufacturer to sell his products more easily.)3) Goodness me！Goodness gracious！Thank goodness. For goodness' sake！(It is supposed to be blasphemous to use the word God in one's speech, so goodness is used instead of God.)4) “Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population.” (This is quoted from George Orwell's “Politics and the English Language”. Euphemism is used here to hide some brutal, harsh, stark political realities.)7. The writer means that in spite of the fact that he strongly objects to the use of euphemisms, some euphemisms, having considerable vigour and vitality, can still be used as far as he is concerned.8. It shows that the writer can foresee the inevitable fate of any euphemism, i.e., that any effort toavoid unpleasantness will end in failure, because a euphemism will quickly acquire the same “negative connotation” as the word it has replaced. There is thus no sense in using euphemisms.B. Reference version:1. The richer life experience we have, and the more people from all walks of life we know, we will develop more extensive and flexible knowledge of different English styles and the ability to use each style appropriately when the occasion arises.2. If we do not know when to use each style appropriately, or if we confuse one style with another inappropriately, an unsystematic and casual knowledge of styles is of no use, or even worse.3. Neither “bags of fun” nor “extremely gracious” in its suitable context is a careless / casual expression of one's ideas.4. It would, however, also be absurd / foolish to turn the judgment completely the other way round.K 235. Except in cases where they are used to achieve humorous effect, contemporary writers think that euphemisms are too disgusting, artificial and pretentious.6. Supporing the argument made by using the outdated and stereotyped phrases that are often used by trade union leaders would be as easy as shooting birds that never fly away.7. Some euphemisms are unusual enough to be funny. They are so unusual that they become quite funny.8. Some people may also like extreme understatement.TEXT ⅡComprehension1. C2. C3. A4. B5. B6.

Children can learn basic lessons from them. For example, they may learn thrift by hearing a parent or grandparent say, “Waste not, want not.” Young people tempted to be dishonest are often able to resist the temptation by recalling “Honesty is the best policy”. Or persons faced with difficult tasks will be encouraged to persevere by keeping in mind that “Little strokes fell great oaks”. Andmany tense situations are improved when one person or another remembers that “A soft answer t urns away wrath”, or that “Two cannot quarrel if one won't”.K 24Proverbs are found in almost every language in the world, whether the language is written or not. In fact, where the language has not been written, proverbs are one of the principal ways the people pass down their philosophy of life from one generation to another, thus preserving their most precious heritage.COMPREHENSIVE EXERCISESⅠ.

Although the composition teacher considers these expressions nothing but cliches, they appeal very much to the students.B. Reference version:We should always bear in mind that in different circumstances we use the English language in different ways. This fact, however, is often forgotten. When we think about language, we too often think only of the more formal forms, especially the written forms. But we are not always reading and writing. We use slang, or at least colloquial forms, with friends and acquaintances. In certain social situations, we use clichés that we would probably blush to write down. We use polite speech when we speak to our elders or our superiors. We use high sounding language on important occasions. We tell jokes and make comments about things or people near or far. We talk about ordinary things or of the secrets of the universe. We express feelings to one person or to a group. We choose slightly different forms of language for each of these purposes. For a native speaker of English, his choice is partly instinctive and partly based on an awareness of the kind of language that is expected of him. A good command of English must include an acquaintance with all these “registers”.Ⅴ.

Now that there was an opportunity for the soul of her nephew to be saved, she couldn't help feeling excited. She was looking forward to the special meeting for children, unable to hide her eagerness.2She told him that he could see and hear and feel Jesus in his soul when he was saved. Jesus would come to him and the child would see a light and feel different inside. Being a child of twelve, he believed her and waited in great earnest for Jesus to come into his life.3The writer purposely describes the members of the congregation in detail —the old black women wearing plaits, and weather beaten old men; “weather beaten”indicates their rich experience of life. Since they believed in God and they said the same things about Jesus, the child didn't think it could be untrue. The writer is suggesting that the power of other people to make a person do what they believe is right is often irresistible.41) It is first mentioned by the child's aunt in the second paragraph, as an idea presented by his aunt in the process of trying to convince him of the importance of being saved.2) In the fifth one sentence paragraph the child was waiting to see Jesus.3) It is repeated in the seventh paragraph, when the child was still waiting and longing to see Jesus.4) It it repeated again in the eleventh paragraph, this time as an indirect accusation of hypocrisy, since Jesus didn't punish Westley for telling a lie.5) The last time it is repeated is in the last paragraph, when it ends up in Langston's self revelation of and regret over his dishonesty, and it helps to express his distress about having been disillusioned.5He believed that many old people certainly knew better —that God would come into his life. He felt he had to wait patiently to see Jesus in spite of the heat, the crowd, and the earnest entreaties of some of the members of the congregation. As he hadn't seen Jesus, he didn't want to lie and say he had, for he was basically an honest boy.6The lessons he learned were：1) He couldn't resist the power to do what a great many people thought he should. People, old and young, men and women, all believed in the existence of almighty God; he had to do what they expected of him and sit on the mourner's bench to be saved and say Jesus had come.2) If he didn't want to hold everything up, and if he wanted to save further trouble, he had better lie. The proverb “Honesty is the best policy”, he learned, did not always apply.3) Religion was not what he wanted. He couldn't and wouldn't believe in his aunt and God any more since he had been deceived and forced to tell a lie.7He was saved from sin in an ironic sense. He was compelled to commit a sin (ie, to lie) in order to be “saved from sin”.B Reference version：1Every night for weeks, the priests gave sermons, and people sang songs in praise of God, worshipped God and shouted for joy. Some sinners who had never showed signs of shame or repentance were saved from sin and the number of the members of the church increased rapidly.2The clergyman spoke on religious matters to the congregation. His speech was marvellously regular and melodious; it was a mixture of the low sounds of pain, grief and suffering, loud and happy as well as lonely cries, and horrible pictures of the world sinners go to when they die.3The whole building shook with all the praying and singing.4All the people attending church service prayed only for me; their praying became one strong and powerful sound of pain and suffering.5The whole church became a sea of great joy.6When everything became quiet again, during a respectful silence, which was broken only by several people saying “Amen”extremely joyfully and happily, all the children were given blessings by the minister in the name of God.TEXT ⅡComprehension1 F (People were pleased because he was not only honest but also a good businessman.)2 F (In fact, they were greatly interested in others' business.

I wonder if they are more often right than wrong. For my own part I find that the longer I know the people the more they puzzle me.IV.

Reading comprehensions.(30)AThere has been a dramatic increase in the number of natural disasters over the past few years，and it is assumed that global warming and climate change could cause even more disasters in the future. Some of the world's leading cities are facing disasters like floods and heat waves.LondonLondon's flood defences are getting older. Since 1982, the Thames Barrier(水闸)has protected the city from the threat of flooding，but it was only designed to last until 2030 and close once every two or three years. About 21 years later the barrier now closes five or six times a year and according to Environment Agency predictions, by 2050 the barrier will be closed on almost every tide if the problem is not addressed.There are 26 underground stations, 400 schools, 16 hospitals，an airport and 80 billion worth of property in London's flood risk area, so large scale flooding would be disastrous.ParisOver a six-week period in July and August 2008，more than 11400—mainly elderly people—died in France from dehydration (脱水) and extremely high body temperature in a deadly heat wave. Heat waves of similar intensity(强度)are expected every seven years by 2050, so what can be done to make sure such a disaster does not happen again? One solution is to have air-conditioners installed in elderly care homes. But this is considered a short-term solution, as the increase in demand for electricity also increases carbon emissions.In Paris the local authorities are encouraging architects to design new types of buildings such as the building “Flower Tower”，which uses a covering of bamboo to act as a natural air-conditioner.ShanghaiShanghai is the fastest growing city on Earth. It has a population of 18 million and is only 4 meters above sea level. Sea levels are predicted to rise by 20 cm within the next century.An estimated 250,000 people move to Shanghai every year in search of work, placing extra demands on energy consumption. China relies heavily on coal-fired power stations, but these emissions increase temperatures and, in turn, warmer seas increase the risk of typhoons.( )46. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Big Cities Facing Big DisastersB. Big Disasters in the FutureC. The Increase of Natural DisastersD.

Putting up new types of buildings with a covering of bamboo.B. Having air-conditioners installed in elderly care homes.C. Forbidding the city to build “Flower Tower”．D. Encouraging architects to design new types of buildings.( )49. The major threats to Shanghai are ________.A. increasing population and coal-fired power stationsB. rising sea levels and typhoonsC. extremely high temperature and rising sea levelsD. extra demands on energy consumption and typhoons( )50. The purpose of the passage is ________.A. to tell us how to protect the big citiesB. to give advice on how to defend natural disastersC. to explain what causes flood and heat wavesD. to warn us of the increasing natural disasters in big citiesBTim Richter and his wife, Linda, had taught for over 30 years near Buffalo, New York—he in computers, she in special education. “Teaching means everything to us.” Tim would say. In Apr il 1998, he learned he would need a heart operation. It was the kind of news that leads to some serious thinking about life's purpose.Not long after the surgery, Tim saw a brochure describing Imagination Library, a program started by Dolly Parton's foundation (基金会) that mailed a book every month to children from birth to age five in the singer's home town of Sevier, Tennessee. “I thought, maybe Linda and I could do something like this when we retire.” Tim recalls. He placed the brochure on his desk, “as a reminder”．Five years later, now retired and with that brochure still on the desk, Tim clicked on . The program had been opened up to partners who could take advantage of book and postage discounts.The quality of the books was of great concern to the Richters. Rather than sign up online, they went to Dollywood for a looksee. “We didn't want to give the children rubbish.” says Linda. The books—reviewed each year by teachers, literacy specialists, and Dollywood board members—included classics such as Ezra Jack Keats's The Snowy Day and newer books like Anna Dewdney's Llama Llama series.Satisfied, the couple set up the Richter Family Foundation and got to work. Since 2004, they have shipped more than 12,200 books to preschoolers in their area. Megan Williams, a mother of four, is more than appreciative：“This program introduces us to books I've never heard of.”The Richters spend about $400 a month sending books to 200 children.“Some people sit there and wait to die.” says Tim. “Others get as busy as they can in the time they have left.”( )51．What led Tim to think seriously about the meaning of life?A.

He tries to save those waiting to die.D. He considers his efforts worthwhile.CIt is understood that a ballad is a song that tells a story, but a folk song is not so easily defined. A balled is a folk song, but a folk song is not a ballad until it tells a story. Folk song, then has included many kinds of music. For example, a sailo r’s song of the sea is a folk song. The blues, a type of jazz popular in New Orleans, may be a folk song. In fact, there are folk songs for every job.“Home on the Range” shows how a popular song may become a folk song. It was first picked up as a folk s ong in 1910 by John Lomax in San Antonio, Texas. Lomax heard the song from an old man who had been a cook many years before. The song was known all over the Midwest; thought it did not come to national attention until the early 1930s. By 1947 “Home on the Range” was so popular that it became the official state song of Kansas.56. A folk song is also a ballad when it___.A. tells a storyB. is sung by workersC. makes the listeners feel sadD. covers many kinds of music57. According to the author, which of the following is not always a folk song?A. A balladB. A sailor’s songC. A state songD. A goatherd’s song.58. According to the passage, which of the following is not true of a folk song?A. It is passed on orallyB. It has different formsC. It may talk about workD. It is found only in the western states59.

The main topic of the passage is the___ .A. different kinds of folk songsB. development of popular musicC. definition of a balladD. importance of folk songs in American lifeDWe find that bright children are rarely held back by mixed-ability teaching. On the contrary, both their knowledge and experience are enriched. We feel that there are many disadvantages in streaming (把……按能力分班) pupils. It does not take into account the fact that children develop at different rates. It can have a bad effect on both the bright and the not-so-bright child. After all, it can be quite discouraging to be at the bottom of the top grade!Besides, it is rather unreal to grade people just according to their intellectual ability. This is only one aspect of their total personality. We are concerned to develop the abilities of all our pupils to the full, not just their academic ability. We also value personal qualities and social skills, and we find that mixed-ability teaching contributes to all these aspects of learning.In our classrooms, we work in various ways. The pupils often work in groups: this gives them the opportunity to learn to co-operate, to share, and to develop leadership skills. They also learn how to cope with personal problems as well as learning how to think, to make decisions, to analyse and evaluate, and to communicate effectively. The pupils learn from each other as well as from the teacher.Sometimes the pupils work in pairs; sometimes they work on individual tasks and assignments, and they can do this at their own speed. They also have some formal class teaching when this is appropriate. We encourage our pupils to use the library, and we teach them the skills they need in order to do this efficiently. An advanced pupil can do advanced work: it does not matter what age the child is. We expect our pupils to do their best, not their least, and we give them every encouragement to attain this goal.60.
