but different in meaning in the two cultures.For example,a Colombian who wants someone to【B2】______him often signals with a hand movement in which all the fingers of one hand, cupped,point downward as they move rapidly【B3】______.Speakers of English have a similar gesture though the hand may not be cupped and the fingers may be held more loosely,but for them the gesture means goodbye or go away,quite the【B4】______of the Colombian gesture.Again,in Colombia,a speaker of English would have to know that when he【B5】______height he must choosebetween different gestures depending on whether he is【B6】______a human being or an animal.If he keeps the palm of the hand【B7】______the floor,as he would in his own culture when making known the height of a child,for example,he will very likely be greeted by laughter;in Colombia this gesture is 【B8】______for the description of animals.In order to describe human beings he should keep the palm of his hand【B9】______to the floor.Substitutions of one gesture for the other often create not only humorous but also【B10】______moments.In both of the examples above,speakers from two different cultures have the same gesture,physically,but its meaning differs sharply.27.【B1】28.【B2】29.【B3】30.【B4】31.【B5】32.【B6】33.【B7】34.【B8】35.【B9】36.【B10】Part III Reading ComprehensionSection AMany Brazilians cannot read.In2000,a quarter of those aged15and older were functionally illiterate(文盲).Many【C1】______do not want to.Only one literate adult in three reads books.The【C2】______Brazilian reads1.8non-academic books a year,less than half the figure in Europe and the United States.In a recent survey of reading habits,Brazilians came27th out of30 countries.Argentines,their neighbors,【C3】______18th.The government and businesses are all struggling in different ways to change this.On March13the government【C4】______a National Plan for Books and Reading.This seeks to boost reading,by founding libraries and financing publishers among other things.One discouragement to reading is that books are【C5】______.Most books have small print-runs,pushing up their price.But Brazilians'indifference to books has deeper roots.Centuries of slavery meant the country's leaders long【C6】______education.Primary schooling became universal only in the1990s.All this means Brazil's book market has the biggest growth【C7】______in the western world.But reading is a difficult habit to form.Brazilians bought fewer books in 2004,89million,including textbooks【C8】______by the government,than they did st year the director of Brazil's national library【C9】______.He complained that he had half the librarians he needed and termites(白蚁)had eaten much of the【C10】______.That ought to be a cause for national shame.A)average I)normalB)collection J)particularlyC)distributed K)potentialD)exhibition L)quitE)expensive M)rankedF)launched N)simplyG)named O)treasuredH)neglected37.【C1】38.【C2】39.【C3】40.【C4】41.【C5】42.【C6】43.【C7】44.【C8】45.【C9】46.【C10】Section BThe Touch-Screen GenerationA)On a chilly day last spring,a few dozen developers of children's apps(应用程序)for phones and tablets(平板电脑)gathered at an old beach resort in Monterey,California,to show off their games.The gathering was organized by Warren Buckleitner,a longtime reviewer of interactive children's media.Buckleitner spent the breaks testing whether his own remote-control helicopter could reach the hall's second story,while various children who had come with their parents looked up in awe(敬畏)and delight.But mostly they looked down, at the iPads and other tablets displayed around the hall like so many open boxesof candy.I walked around and talked with developers,and several quoted a famous saying of Maria Montessori's,"The hands are the instruments of man's intelligence."B)What,really,would Maria Montessori have made of this scene?The30or so children here were not down at the shore poking(戳)their fingers in the sand or running them along stones or picking seashells.Instead they were all inside, alone or in groups of two or three,their faces a few inches from a screen,their hands doing things Montessori surely did not imagine.C)In2011,the American Academy of Pediatrics updated its policy on very young children and media.In1999,the group had discouraged television viewing for children younger than2,citing research on brain development that showed this age group's critical need for"direct interactions with parents and other significant care givers."The updated report began by acknowledging that things had changed significantly since then.In2006,90%of parents said that their children younger than2consumed some form of electronic media. Nevertheless,the group took largely the same approach it did in1999, uniformly discouraging passive media use,on any type of screen,for these kids.(For older children,the academy noted,"high-quality programs"could have"educational benefits.")The2011report mentioned"smart cell phone" and"new screen"technologies,but did not address interactive apps.Nor did it bring up the possibility that has likely occurred to those90%of American parents that some good might come from those little swiping(在电子产品上刷)fingers.D)I had come to the developers'conference partly because I hoped that this particular set of parents,enthusiastic as they were about interactive media, might help me out of this problem,that they might offer some guiding principle for American parents who are clearly never going to meet the academy's ideals, and at some level do not want to.Perhaps this group would be able to express clearly some benefits of the new technology that the more cautious doctors weren't ready to address.E)I fell into conversation with a woman who had helped develop Montessori Letter Sounds,an app that teaches preschoolers the Montessori methods of spelling.She was a former Montessori teacher and a mother of four.I myself have three children who are all fans of the touch screen.What games did her kids like to play,I asked,hoping for suggestions I could take home."They don't play all that much."Really?Why not?"Because I don't allow it.We have a rule of no screen time during the week, unless it's clearlyeducational."No screen time?None at all?That seems at the outer edge of restrictive,even by the standards ofovercontrolling parents."On the weekends,they can play.I give them a limit of half an hour and then stop.Enough."F)Her answer so surprised me that I decided to ask some of the other developers who were also parents what their domestic ground rules for screen time were. One said only on airplanes and long car rides.Another said Wednesdays and weekends,for half an hour.The most permissive said half an hour a day,which was about my rule at home.At one point I sat with one of the biggest developers of e-book apps for kids,and his family.The small kid was starting to fuss in her high chair,so the mom stuck an iPad in front of her and played a short movie so everyone else could enjoy their lunch.When she saw me watching,she gave me the universal tense look of mothers who feel they are being judged."At home," she assured me,"I only let her watch movies in Spanish."G)By their reactions,these parents made me understand the problem of our age: as technology becomes almost everywhere in our lives,American parents are becoming more,not less,distrustful of what it might be doing to their children. Technological ability has not,for parents,translated into comfort and ease.On the one hand,parents want their children to swim expertly in the digital stream that they will have to navigate(航行)all their lives;on the other hand,they fear that too much digital media,too early,will sink them.Parents end up treating tablets as precision surgical(外科的)instruments,devices that might perform miracles for their child's IQ and help him win some great robotics competition—but only if they are used just so.Otherwise,their child could end up one of those sad,pale creatures who can't make eye contact and has a girlfriend who lives only in the virtual world.H)Norman Rockwell,a20th-century artist,never painted Boy Swiping Finger on Screen,and our own vision of a perfect childhood has never been adjusted to accommodate that now-common scene.Add to that our modern fear that every parenting decision may have lasting consequences—that every minute of enrichment lost or mindless entertainment indulged(放纵的)will add up to some permanent handicap(障碍)in the future—and you have deep guilt and confusion.To date,no body of research has proved that the iPad will make your preschooler smarter or teach her to speak Chinese,or alternatively that it will rust her nervous system—the device has been out for only three years,not much more than the time it takes some academics to find funding and gather research subjects.So what is a parent to do?47.The author attended the conference,hoping to find some guiding principles for parenting in the electronic age.48.American parents are becoming more doubtful about the benefits technology is said to bring to their children.49.Some experts believe that human intelligence develops by the use of hands.50.The author found a former Montessori teacher exercising strict control over her kids'screen time.51.Research shows interaction with people is key to babies'brain development.52.So far there has been no scientific proof of the educational benefits of iPads.53.American parents worry that overuse of tablets will create problems with their kids'interpersonal relationships.54.The author expected developers of children's apps to specify the benefits of the new technology.55.The kids at the gathering were more fascinated by the iPads than by the helicopter.56.The author permits her children to use the screen for at most half an hour a day.Section CWhen young women were found to make only82percent of what their male peers do just one year out of college,many were at a loss to explain it.All the traditional reasons put forward to interpret the pay gap—that women fall behind when they leave the workforce to raise kids,for example,or that they don't seek as many management roles—failed to justify this one. These young women didn't have kids yet.And because they were just one year removed from their undergraduate degrees,few of these women yet had the chance to go after(much less decline)leadership roles.But there are other reasons why the pay gap remains so persistent.The first is that no matter how many women may be getting college degrees,the university experience is still an unequal one.The second is that our higher education system is not designed to focus on the economic consequences of our students'years on campus.Now that women are the majority of college students and surpass men in both the number of undergraduate and advanced degrees awarded,one might think the college campus is a pretty equal place.It is not.Studies show that while girls do better than boys in high school,they start to trail off during their college years.They enroll in different kinds of classes,tend to major in less rigorous(非常严格的)subjects,and generally head off with less ambitious plans.As a result,it's not surprising that even the best educated young women enter the workplace with a slight disadvantage.Their college experience leaves them somewhat confused,still stumbling(栽倒)over the dilemmas their grandmothers'generation sought to destroy.Are they supposed to be pretty or smart?Strong or sexy(性感的)?All their lives,today's young women have been pushed to embrace both perfection and passion—to pursue science and sports, math and theater—and do it all as well as they possibly can.No wonder they are not negotiating for higher salaries as soon as they get out of school.They are too exhausted,and too scared of failing.57.Traditionally,it is believed that women earn less than men because______. A.they have failed to take as many rigorous coursesB.they do not feel as fit for management rolesC.they feel obliged to take care of their kids at homeD.they do not exhibit the needed leadership qualities58.What does the author say about America's higher education system?A.It does not offer specific career counseling to women.B.It does not consider its economic impact on graduates.C.It does not take care of women students'special needs.D.It does not encourage women to take rigorous subjects.59.What does the author say about today's college experience?A.It is different for male and female students.B.It is not the same as that of earlier generations.C.It is more exhausting than most women expect.D.It is not so satisfying to many American students.60.What does the author say about women students in college?A.They have no idea how to bring out their best.B.They drop a course when they find it too rigorous.C.They are not as practical as men in choosing courses.D.They don't perform as well as they did in high school.61.How does the author explain the pay gap between men and women fresh from college?A.Women are too worn out to be ambitious.B.Women are not ready to take management roles.C.Women are caught between career and family.D.Women are not good at negotiating salaries.Reading leadership literature,you'd sometimes think that everyone has the potential to be an effective leader.I don't believe that to be true.In fact,I see way fewer truly effective leaders than I see people stuck in positions of leadership who are sadly incompetent and seriously misguided about their own abilities.Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those who aspire to(追求)leadership in the first place.We've all met the type of individual who simply must take charge.Whether it's a decision-making session,a basketball game,or a family outing,they can't help grabbing the lead dog position and clinging on to it for dear life.They believe they're natural born leaders.Truth is,they're nothing of the sort.True leaders don't assume that it's their divine(神圣的)right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite.A great leader will assess each situation on its merits,and will only take charge when their position,the situation,and/or the needs of the moment demand it.Many business executives confuse leadership with action.They believe that constant motion somehow generates leadership as a byproduct.Faced withany situation that can't be solved by the sheer force of activity,they generate a dust cloud of impatience.Their one leadership tool is volume:if they think you aren't working as hard as they think you should,their demands become increasingly louder and harsher.True leaders understand the value of action,of course,but it isn't their only tool.In fact,it isn't even their primary tool.Great leaders see more than everyone else:answers,solutions,patterns,problems,opportunities.They know it's vitally important to do,but they also know that thinking,understanding, reflection and interpretation are equally important.If you're too concerned with outcomes to the extent that you manipulate and intimidate others to achieve those outcomes,then you aren't leading at all, you're dictating.A true leader is someone who develops his or her team so that they can and do hit their targets and achieve their goals.62.What does the author think of the leaders he knows?A.Many of them are used to taking charge.B.Few of them are equal to their positions.C.Many of them fail to fully develop their potential.D.Few of them are familiar with leadership literature.63.Why are some people eager to grab leadership positions?A.They believe they have the natural gift to lead.B.They believe in what leadership literature says.C.They have proved competent in many situations.D.They derive great satisfaction from being leaders.64.What characterizes a great leader according to the author?A.Being able to take prompt action when chances present themselves. B.Having a whole-hearted dedication to their divine responsibilities. C.Having a full understanding of their own merits and weaknesses. D.Being able to assess the situation carefully before taking charge. 65.How will many business executives respond when their command fails to generate action?A.They reassess the situation at hand.B.They become impatient and rude.C.They resort to any tool available.D.They blame their team members.66.What is the author's advice to leaders?A.Concentrate on one specific task at a time.B.Use different tools to achieve different goals.C.Build up a strong team to achieve their goals.D.Show determination when faced with tough tasks.PartⅣTranslation67.中国应进一步发展核能,因为核电目前只占其总发电量的2%。

Part of the warming is natural; we have experienced a 20,000-year-long warming as the last ice age ended and the ice ___36___ away. However, we have already reached temperatures that are in ___37___ with other minimum-ice periods, so continued warming is likely not natural. We are ___38___ to a predicted worldwide increase in temperatures ___39___ between 1℃and 6℃over the next 100 years. The warming will be more ___40___ in some areas, less in others, and some places may even cool off. Likewise, the ___41___ of this warming will be very different depending on where you are—coastal areas must worry about rising sea levels, while Siberia and northern Canada may become more habitable (宜居的)and ___42___ for humans than these areas are now.The fact remains, however, that it will likely get warmer, on ___43___, everywhere. Scientists are in general agreement that the warmer conditions we have been experiencing are at least in part the result of a human-induced global warming trend. Some scientists ___44___ that the changes we are seeing fall within the range of random (无规律的)variation—some years are cold, others warm, and we have just had an unremarkable string of warm years ___45___—but that is becoming an increasingly rare interpretation in the face of continued and increasing warm conditions.A)appealing I)meltedB)average J)persistC)contributing K)rangingD)dramatic L)recentlyE)frequently M)resolvedF)impact N)sensibleG)line O)shockH)maintainSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The End of the Book?A) Amazon, by far the largest bookseller in the country, reported on May 19 that it is now selling more books in its electronic Kindle format than in the old paper-and-ink format. That is remarkable, considering that the Kindle has only been around for four years. E-books now account for 14 percent of all book sales in this country and are increasing far faster than overall book sales. E-book sales are up 146 percent over last year, while hardback sales increased 6 percent and paperbacks decreased 8 percent.B) Does this spell the doom of the physical book? Certainly not immediately, and perhaps not at all. What it does mean is that the book business will go through a transformation in the next decade or so more profound than any it has seen since Gutenberg introduced printing from moveable type in the 1450s.C) Physical books will surely become much rarer in the marketplace. Mass market paperbacks, which have been declining for years anyway, will probably disappear, as will hardbacks for mysteries, thrillers, “romance fiction,”etc. Such books, which only rarely end up in permanent collections, either private or public, will probably only be available as e-books within a few years. Hardback and trade paperbacks for “serious”nonfiction and fiction will surely last longer. Perhaps it will become the mark of an author to reckon with that he or she is still published in hard copy.D) As for children’s books, who knows? Children’s books are like dog food in that the purchasers are not the consumers, so the market (and the marketing)is inherently strange. E)For clues to the book’s future, let’s look at some examples of technological change and see what happened to the old technology.F)One technology replaces another only because the new technology is better, cheaper, or both. The greater the difference, the sooner and more thoroughly the new technology replaces the old. Printing with moveable type on paper dramatically reduced the cost of producing a book compared with the old-fashioned ones handwritten on vellum, which comes from sheepskin. A Bible—to be sure, a long book—required vellum made from 300 sheepskins and countless man-hours of labor. Before printing arrived, a Bible cost more than a middle-class house. There were perhaps 50,000 books in all of Europe in 1450. By 1500 there were 10 million.G) But while printing quickly caused the handwritten book to die out, hand writing lingered on (继续存在)well into the 16th century. Very special books are still occasionally produced on vellum, but they are one-of-a-kind show pieces.H) Sometimes a new technology doesn’t drive the old one out, but only parts of it while forcing the rest to evolve. The movies were widely predicted to drive live theater out of the marketplace, but they didn’t, because theater turned out to have qualities movies could not reproduce. Equally, TV was supposed to replace movies but, again, did not.I)Movies did, however, fatally impact some parts of live theater. And while TV didn’t kill movies, it did kill second-rate pictures, shorts, and cartoons.J)Nor did TV kill radio. Comedy and drama shows (”Jack Benny,”“Amos and Andy,”“The Shadow”)all migrated to television. But because you can’t drive a car and watch television at the same time, rush hour became radio’s prime time, while music, talk, and news radio greatly enlarged their audiences. Radio is today a very different business than in the late 1940s and a much larger one.K) Sometimes old technology lingers for centuries because of its symbolic power. Mounted cavalry (骑兵)replaced the chariot (二轮战车)on the battlefield around 1000 BC. But chariots maintained their place in parades and triumphs right up until the end of the Roman Empire 1,500 years later. The sword hasn’t had a military function for a hundred years, but is still part of an officer’s full-dress uniform, precisely because a sword always symbolized “an officer and a gentleman.”L)Sometimes new technology is a little cranky (不稳定的)at first. Television repairman was a common occupation in the 1950s, for instance. And so the old technology remains as a backup. Steamships captured the North Atlantic passenger business from sail in the 1840s because of its much greater speed. But steamships didn’t lose their sails until the 1880s, because early marine engines had a nasty habit of breaking down. Until ships became large enough (and engines small enough)to mount two engines side by side, they needed to keep sails. (The high cost of steamand the lesser need for speed kept the majority of the world’s ocean freight moving by sail until the early years of the 20th century.)M)Then there is the fireplace. Central heating was present in every upper- and middle-class home by the second half of the 19th century. But functioning fireplaces remain to this day a powerful selling point in a house or apartment. I suspect the reason is a deep-rooted love of fire. Fire was one of the earliest major technological advances for humankind, providing heat, protection, and cooked food (which is much easier to eat and digest). Human control of fire goes back far enough (over a million years)that evolution could have produced a genetic leaning towards fire as a central aspect of human life.N) Books—especially books the average person could afford—haven’t been around long enough to produce evolutionary change in humans. But they have a powerful hold on many people nonetheless, a hold extending far beyond their literary content. At their best, they are works of art and there is a tactile (触觉的)pleasure in books necessarily lost in e-book versions. The ability to quickly thumb through pages is also lost. And a room with books in it induces, at least in some, a feeling not dissimilar to that of a fire in the fireplace on a cold winter’s night.O) For these reasons I think physical books will have a longer existence as a commercial product than some currently predict. Like swords, books have symbolic power. Like fireplaces, they induce a sense of comfort and warmth. And, perhaps, similar to sails, they make a useful backup for when the lights go out.46. Authors still published in printed versions will be considered important ones.47. Some people are still in favor of printed books because of the sense of touch they can provide.48. The radio business has changed greatly and now attracts more listeners.49. Contrary to many people’s prediction of its death, the film industry survived.50. Remarkable changes have taken place in the book business.51. Old technology sometimes continues to exist because of its reliability.52. The increase of e-book sales will force the book business to make changes not seen for centuries.53. A new technology is unlikely to take the place of an old one without a clear advantage.54. Paperbacks of popular literature are more likely to be replaced by e-books.55. A house with a fireplace has a stronger appeal to buyers.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.The question of whether our government should promote science and technology or the liberal arts in higher education isn’t an either/or proposition(命题), although the current emphasis on preparing young Americans for STEM (science, technology, engineering, maths)-related fields can make it seem that way.The latest congressional report acknowledges the critical importance of technical training, but also asserts that the study of the humanities (人文学科)and social sciences must remain centralcomponents of America’s educational system at all levels. Both areas are critical to producing citizens who can participate effectively in our democratic society, become innovative (创新的)leaders, and benefit from the spiritual enrichment that the reflection on the great ideas of mankind over time provides.Parents and students who have invested heavily in higher education worry about graduates’job prospects as technological advances and changes in domestic and global markets transform professions in ways that reduce wages and cut jobs. Under these circumstances, it’s natural to look for what may appear to be the most “practical”way out of the problem: “Major in a subject designed to get you a job”seems the obvious answer to some, though this ignores the fact that many disciplines in the humanities characterized as “soft”often, in fact, lead to employment and success in the long run. Indeed, according to surveys, employers have expressed a preference for students who have received a broadly-based education that has taught them to write well, think critically, research creatively and communicate easily.Moreover, students should be prepared not just for their first job, but for their 4th and 5th jobs, as there’s little reason to doubt that people entering the workforce today will be called upon to play many different roles over the course of their careers. The ones who will do the best in this new environment will be those whose educations have prepared them to be flexible. The ability to draw upon every available tool and insight—picked up from science, arts and technology—to solve the problems of the future, and take advantage of the opportunities that present themselves, will be helpful to them and the United States.56. What does the latest congressional report suggest?A)STEM-related subjects help students find jobs in the information society.B)The humanities and STEM subjects should be given equal importance.C)The liberal arts in higher education help enrich students’ spiritual life.D)Higher education should be adjusted to the practical needs of society.57. What is the main concern of students when they choose a major?A)Their interest in relevant subjects. C)The quality of education to receive.B)The academic value of the courses. D)Their chances of getting a good job.58. What does the author say about the so-called soft subjects?A)They benefit students in their future life.B)They broaden students’ range of interests.C)They improve students’ communication skills.D)They are essential to students’ healthy growth.59. What kind of job applicants do employers look for?A)Those who have a strong sense of responsibility.B)Those who are good at solving practical problems.C)Those who are likely to become innovative leaders.D)Those who have received a well-rounded education.60. What advice does the author give to college students?A)Seize opportunities to tap their potential.B)Try to take a variety of practical courses.C)Prepare themselves for different job options.D)Adopt a flexible approach to solving problems.Passage TwoQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.Energy independence. It has a nice ring to it, doesn’t it? If you think so, you’re not alone, because energy independence has been the dream of American presidents for decades, and never more so than in the past few years, when the most recent oil price shock has been partly responsible for kicking off the great recession.“Energy independence”and its rhetorical (修辞的)companion “energy security”are, however, slippery concepts that are rarely thought through. What is it we want independence from, exactly?Most people would probably say that they want to be independent from imported oil. But there are reasons that we buy all that oil from elsewhere.The first reason is that we need it to keep our economy running. Yes, there is a trickle (涓涓细流)of biofuel(生物燃料)available, and more may become available, but most biofuels cause economic waste and environmental destruction.Second, Americans have basically decided that they don’t really want to produce all their own oil. They value the environmental quality they preserve over their oil imports from abroad. Vast areas of the United States are off-limits to oil exploration and production in the name of environmental protection. To what extent are Americans really willing to endure the environmental impacts of domestic energy production in order to cut back imports?Third, there are benefits to trade. It allows for economic efficiency, and when we buy things from places that have lower production costs than we do, we benefit. And although you don’t read about this much, the United States is also a large exporter of oil products, selling about 2 million barrels of petroleum products per day to about 90 countries.There is no question that the United States imports a great deal of energy and, in fact, relies on that steady flow to maintain its economy. When that flow is interrupted, we feel the pain in short supplies and higher prices. At the same time, we derive massive economic benefits when we buy the most affordable energy on the world market and when we engage in energy trade around the world.61. What does the author say about energy independence for America?A)It sounds very attractive. C)It will bring oil prices down.B)It ensures national security. D)It has long been everyone’s dream.62. What does the author think of biofuels?A)They keep America’s economy running healthily.B)They prove to be a good alternative to petroleum.C)They do not provide a sustainable energy supply.D)They cause serious damage to the environment.63. Why does America rely heavily on oil imports?A)It wants to expand its storage of crude oil.B)Its own oil reserves are quickly running out.C)It wants to keep its own environment intact.D)Its own oil production falls short of demand.64. What does the author say about oil trade?A)It proves profitable to both sides.B)It improves economic efficiency.C)It makes for economic prosperity.D)It saves the cost of oil exploration.65. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?A)To justify America’s dependence on oil imports.B)To arouse Americans’ awareness of the energy crisis.C)To stress the importance of energy conservation.D)To explain the increase of international oil trade.Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question,you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A), B), C)and D).

When the passage is read for the first time, you should listen carefully for its general idea. When the passage is read for the second time, you are required to fill in the blanks with the exact words you have just heard. Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.Among the kinds of social gestures most significant for second-language teachers are those which are 26 in form but different in meaning in the two cultures. For example, a Colombian who wants someone to 27 him often signals with a hand movement in which all the fingers of one hand, cupped, point downward as they move rapidly 28 . Speakers of English have a similar gesture though the hand may not be cupped and the fingers may be held more loosely, but for them the gesture means goodbye or go away, quite the 29 of the Colombian gesture. Again, in Colombia, a speaker of English would have to know that when he 30 height he must choose between different gestures depending on whether he is 31 a human being or an animal. If he keeps the palm of the hand 32 the floor, as he would in his own culture when making known the height of a child, for example, he will very likely be greeted by laughter; in Colombia this gesture is 33 for the description of animals. In order to describe human beings he should keep the palm of his hand 34 to the floor. Substitutions of one gesture for the other often create not only humorous but also 35 moments. In both of the examples above, speakers from two different cultures have the same gesture, physically, but its meaning differs sharply.PartⅢReading Comprehension(40 minutes)Section ADirections :In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You are required to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage throughcarefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please markthe corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. Youmay not use any of the words in the bank more than once.Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.Many Brazilians cannot read. In 2000, a quarter of those aged 15 and older were functionally illiterate(文盲).Many 36 do not want to. Only one literate adult in three reads books. The 37 Brazilian reads 1. 8 non-academic books a year, less than half the figure in Europe and the United States. In a recent survey of readinghabits, Brazilians came 27th out of 30 countries. Argentines, their neighbors, 38 18th.The government and businesses are all struggling in different ways to change this. On March 13 the government 39 a National Plan for Books and Reading. This seeks to boost reading, by founding libraries and financing publishers among other things.One discouragement to reading is that books are 40 . Most books have small print-runs, pushing up their price.Section BDirections :In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which theinformation is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is markedwith a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.The Touch-Screen GenerationA)On a chilly day last spring, a few dozen developers of children’s apps(应用程序)for phones and tablets(平板电脑)gathered at an old beach resort in Monterey, California, to show off their games. The gathering was organized by Warren Buckleitner, a longtime reviewer of interactive children’s media. Buckleitner spent the breaks testing whether his own remote-control helicopter could reach the hairs second story, while various children who had come with their parents looked up in awe(敬畏)and delight. But mostly they looked down, at the iPads and other tablets displayed around the hall like so many open boxes of candy. I walked around and talked with developers, and several quoted a famous saying of Maria Montessori’s, “ The hands are the instruments of man’s intelligence.’’B)What, really, would Maria Montessori have made of this scene? The 30 or so children here were not down atthe shore poking(戳) their fingers in the sand or running them along stones or picking seashells. Instead they were all inside, alone or in groups of two or three, their faces a few inches from a screen, their hands doing things Montessori surely did not imagine.C)In 2011, the American Academy of Pediatrics updated its policy on very young children and media. In 1999,the group had discouraged television viewing for children younger than 2, citing research on brain development that showed this age groups critical need for “direct interactions with parents and other significant care givers.”The updated report began by acknowledging that things had changed significantly since then. In 2006, 90% of parents said that their children younger than 2 consumed some form of electronic media. Nevertheless, the group took largely the same approach it did in 1999, uniformly discouraging passive media use, on any type of screen, for these kids. (For older children, the academy noted, “high-quality programs” could have “educational benefits.”)The 2011 report mentioned “smart cell phone” and “new screen” technologies, but did not address interactive apps. Nor did it bring up the possibility that has likely occurred to those 90% of American parents that some good might come from those little swiping(在电子产品上刷)fingers.D) I had come to the developers,conference partly because I hoped that this particular set of parents,enthusiastic as they were about interactive media, might help me out of this problem, that they might offersome guiding principle for American parents who are clearly never going to meet the academy’s ideals, and atsome level do not want to. Perhaps this group would be able to express clearly some benefits of the newtechnology that the more cautious doctors weren’t ready to address.E) I fell into conversation with a woman who had helped develop Montessori Letter Sounds, an app that teachespreschoolers the Montessori methods of spelling. She was a former Montessori teacher and a mother of four. Imyself have three children who are all fans of the touch screen. What games did her kids like to play, I asked,hoping for suggestions I could take home. “ They don’t play all that much. ”Really? Why not?“Because I don’t allow it. We have a rule of no screen time during the week, unless it’s clearly educational. ’’No screen time? None at all? That seems at the outer edge of restrictive, even by the standards ofovercontrolling parents.“On the weekends, they can play. I give them a limit of half an hour and then stop. Enough.”F) Her answer so surprised me that I decided to ask some of the other developers who were also parents whattheir domestic ground rules for screen time were. One said only on airplanes and long car rides. Another saidWednesdays. and weekends, for half an hour. The most permissive said half an hour a day, which was aboutmy rule at home. At one point I sat with one of the biggest developers of e-book apps for kids, and his family.The small kid was starting to fuss in her high chair, so the mom stuck an iPad in front of her and played ashort movie so everyone else could enjoy their lunch. When she saw me watching, she gave me the universaltense look of mothers who feel they are being judged. “ At home,” she assured me, “ I only let her watchmovies in Spanish. ’”G) By their reactions, these parents made me understand the problem of our age: as technology becomes almosteverywhere in our lives, American parents are becoming more, not less, distrustful of what it might be doingto their children. Technological ability has not, for parents, translated into comfort and ease. On the one hand,parents want their children to swim expertly in the digital stream that they will have to navigate(航行) alltheir lives; on the other hand, they fear that too much digital media, too early, will sink them. Parents end uptreating tablets as precision surgical(外科的)instruments, devices that might perform miracles for theirchild’s IQ and help him win some great robotics competition——but only if they are used just so. Otherwise,their child could end up one of those sad, pale creatures who can^ make eye contact and has a girlfriend wholives only in the virtual world.H) Norman Rockwell, a 20th-century artist, never painted Boy Swiping Finger on Screen, and our own vision ofa perfect childhood has never been adjusted to accommodate that now-common scene. Add to that ourmodem fear that every parenting decision may have lasting consequences—that every minute of enrichmentlost or mindless entertainment indulged(放纵的)will add up to some permanent handicap(障碍)in thefuture—and you have deep guilt and confusion. To date, no body of research has proved that the iPad willmake your preschooler smarter or teach her to speak Chinese, or alternatively that it will rust her nervoussystem—the device has been out for only three years, not much more than the time it takes some academics tofind funding and gather research subjects. So what is a parent to do?46.The author attended the conference, hoping to find some guiding principles for parenting in the electronicage.47.American parents are becoming more doubtful about the benefits technology is said to bring to their children.48.Some experts believe that human intelligence develops by the use of hands.49.The author found a former Montessori teacher exercising strict control over her kids, screen time.50.Research shows interaction with people is key to babies, brain development.51.So far there has been no scientific proof of the educational benefits of iPads.52.American parents worry that overuse of tablets will create problems with their kids, interpersonalrelationships.53.The author expected developers of children’s apps to specify the benefits of the new technology.54.The kids at the gathering were more fascinated by the iPads than by the helicopter.55.The author permits her children to use the screen for at most half an hour a day.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinishedstatements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),, C) and D).You should decide on thebest choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.When young women were found to make only 82 percent of what their male peers do just one year out of college, many were at a loss to explain it.All the traditional reasons put forward to interpret the pay gap—that women fall behind when they leave the workforce to raise kids, for example, or that they don’t seek as many management roles— failed to justify this one.These young women didn’t have kids yet. And because they were just one year removed from their undergraduatedegrees, few of these women yet had the chance to go after (much less decline) leadership roles.But there are other reasons why the pay gap remains so persistent. The first is that no matter how many women may be getting college degrees, the university experience is still an unequal one. The second is that ourhigher education system is not designed to focus on the economic consequences of our students, years on campus.Now that women are the majority of college students and surpass men in both the number of undergraduate and advanced degrees awarded, one might think the college campus is a pretty equal place. It is not. Studies showthat while girls do better than boys in high school, they start to trail off during their college years. They enroll indifferent kinds of classes, tend to major in less rigorous(非常严格的)subjects, and generally head off with lessambitious plants.As a result, it’s not surprising that even the best educated young women enter the workplace with a slight disadvantage. Their college experience leaves them somewhat confused, still stumbling(栽倒) over the dilemmastheir grandmothers, generation sought to destroy. Are they supposed to be pretty or smart? Strong or sexy(性感的)?All their lives, today’s young women have been pushed to embrace both perfection and passion—to pursuescience and sports, math and theater—and do it all as well as they possibly can. No wonder they are notnegotiating for higher salaries as soon as they get out of school. They are too exhausted, and too scared of failing.56.Traditionally, it is believed that women earn less than men because _________________________ .A)they have failed to take as many rigorous coursesB)they do not feel as fit for management rolesC)they feel obliged to take care of their kids at homeD)they do not exhibit the needed leadership qualities57.What does the author say about America’s higher education system?A)It does not offer specific career counseling to women.B)It does not consider its economic impact on graduates.C)It does not take care of women students’ special needs.D)It does not encourage women to take rigorous subjects.58.What does the author say about today’s college experience?A)It is different for male and female students.B)It is not the same as that of earlier generations.C)It is more exhausting than most women expect.D)It is not so satisfying to many American students.59.What does the author say about women students in college?A)They have no idea how to bring out their best.B)They drop a course when they find it too rigorous.C)They are not as practical as men in choosing courses.D)They don5t perform as well as they did in high school.60.How does the author explain the pay gap between men and women fresh from college?A)Women are too worn out to be ambitious.B)Women are not ready to take management roles.C)Women are caught between career and family.D)Women are not good at negotiating salaries.Passage TwoQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.Reading leadership literature, you’d sometimes think that everyone has the potential to be an effective leader.I don’t believe that to be true. In fact, I see way fewer truly effective leaders than I see people stuck inpositions of leadership who are sadly incompetent and seriously misguided about their own abilities.Part of the reason this happens is a lack of honest self-assessment by those who aspire to(追求)leadership in the first place.We’v e all met the type of individual who simply must take c harge. Whether it’s a decision-making session, a basketball game, or a family outing, they can’t help grabbing the lead dog position and clinging on to it for dearlife. They believe they’v e natural born leaders.Truth is, they’r e nothing of the sort. True leaders don^ assume that ifs their divine (神圣的) right to take charge every time two or more people get together. Quite the opposite. A great leader will assess each situation onits merits, and will only take charge when their position, the situation, and/or the needs of the moment demand it.Many business executives confuse leadership with action. They believe that constant motion somehow generates leadership as a byproduct. Faced with any situation that can’t be solved by the sheer force of activity,they generate a dust cloud of impatience. Their one leadership tool is volume: if they think you aren’t working ashard as they think you should, their demands become increasingly louder and harsher.True leaders understand the value of action, of course, but it isn’t their only tool. In fact, it isn’t even their primary tool. Great leaders see more than everyone else answers, solutions, patterns, problems, opportunities. Theyknow it’s vitally important to do, but they also know that thinking, understanding, reflection and interpretation areequally important.If you’r e too concerned with outcomes to the extent that you manipulate and intimidate others to achieve those outcomes, then you aren’t leading at all, you’r e dictating. A true leader is someone who develops his or herteam so that they can and do hit their targets and achieve their goals.61.What does the author think of the leaders he knows?A)Many of them are used to taking charge.B)Few of them are equal to their positions.C)Many of them fail to fully develop their potential.D)Few of them are familiar with leadership literature.62.Why are some people eager to grab leadership positions?A)They believe they have the natural gift to lead.B)They believe in what leadership literature says.C)They have proved competent in many situations.D)They derive great satisfaction from being leaders.63.What characterizes a great leader according to the author?A)Being able to take prompt action when chances present themselves.B)Having a whole-hearted dedication to their divine responsibilities.C)Having a full understanding of their own merits and weaknesses.D)Being able to assess the situation carefully before taking charge.64.How will many business executives respond when their command fails to generate action?A) They reassess the situation at hand. C) They resort to any tool available.B) They become impatient and rude. D) They blame their team members.65.What is the author’s advice to leaders?A)Concentrate on one specific task at a time.B)Use different tools to achieve different goals.C)Build up a strong team to achieve their goals.D)Show determination when faced with tough tasks.Part IV Translation(30 minutes)Directions :For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English. You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.中国应进一步发展核能,因为核电目前只占其总发电量的2%。
