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 the Answer Sheet.Passage OneTraditional media may be declining in much of the rich world, but in poor countries it is booming. The growth in private media in developing countries has spurred much of the demand, as has new technology. That is stoking journalism training in far-flung places, in many shapes and sizes. They range from full degree programmes to the short-term specialist training offered widely across Asia, Africa and Latin America. Groups offering such courses include the BBC World ServiceTrust, the Reuters and Thomson Foundations, the Institute for War and Peace Reporting (IWPR) and Internews Network, a media-development charity based in America.These days the donors are particularly interested in niches, such as investigative reporting and science writing. But that approach sometimes fails. The need for basic reporting skills is still central. Trainers stress the need for flexibility. Participants in the courses praise the results, while complaining about the lack of focus and co-ordination among some providers. Shapi Shacinda, the Reuters correspondent in Zambia and chairman of the press club in the capital, Lusaka, says that foreign-backed training in business and economic reporting has helped bring more skeptical coverage. Previously, news stories used to be taken straight from officials' statements, he says.But governments are harder to teach. Encouraging students to probe sensitive topics may threaten their lives or livelihoods. An Iraqi journalist trained by and working with the IWPR was shot dead earlier this year. Just this week, Zambia's minister of information asserted that state-run media should not criticize the government. In Russia, an organization founded by Internews has been closed by the authorities, who were apparently suspicious of its American backing. Rich-country governments can be a problem too. Some try to influence the “messages” that trainers deliver, for example by insisting that their diplomats talk to classes on a regular basis. The big training groups insist that they control their own content. Blurring the boundaries can be dangerous both for journalists and the programmes that support them, he notes. But others may be less choosy.More is not always better. Quality varies wildly. Places like Bangladesh and Rwanda have been showered with training in recent years. Gratitude is mixed with the wish for better co-ordination. David Okwemba of Kenya's The Nation newspaper, who also helps train journalists, bemoans(哀叹) overlap between courses andproviders' failure to share information.Some courses aspire loftily to build democratic societies through a free press. The BBC trust says it aims to give a say to the common man by holding institutions—public and private—to account. Such a range of goals makes measuring results difficult. Teaching how to point a camera or write a news story may be easy compared to raising awareness of broader issues such as HIV/AIDS.Many old news hands laugh at the notion of formal journalism education. Awell-stocked and inquiring mind plus sharp writing skills are the main assets, they reckon. But even the most grey-haired veterans of rich-world journalism still seem glad to earn extra money tutoring new hands in poor countries.1. Traditional media is booming in poor countries because of the following reasons except_____A. the private media is developing at a fast pace.B. the new technology provides technical foundation.C. there are many journalism trainings in various shapes and sizes.D. the demand for traditional media has been in steady increase.2. Which one of the following statements is TRUE of the present training in those poor countries?A. The trainers are paying more attention on skills of investigative reporting and science writing.B. The courses are mostly extensive rather than being intensive.C. The training puts emphasis on the flexibility of basic reporting skills.D. Some trainees are satisfactory with the training courses while some are complaining.3. Shapi Shacinda think foreign-backed training in business and economic reporting has helped bring more skeptical coverage because_____A. there is a conservative tradition of news reporting in these countries.B. the foreign-backed training is skeptical about the previous news stories in these countries.C. there exist some problems in the concept of news report in these countries.D. the governments order tha t news stories should be taken from officials’ statements.4. From the third paragraph, it can be inferred that Shapi Shacinda thinks_____A. the training is in short of teaching the tactics to deal with different government.B. it is still common for governments of less-developed countries to interfere with journalism.C. the training had better not involve itself into unnecessary disputes.D. the training should stress more on journalism independence from the government. 5.Towards the journalism training, the attitudes of veterans of journalism can be said to be _____A. critical.B. despicable.C. inconsistent.D. supportive.Passage 2When Princeton, the University of Virginia, and Harvard announced last fall that they would drop their early admissions options because they gave an unfair advantage to wealthy students, many college counselors held their breath. Would early decision go the way of kegs in dormitories? Not for now, at least. Early admission is still going strong at many colleges and universities, including many top-tier schools.Early decision in particular--in which a student commits to a first-choice institution--is often touted as a plus for both schools and students. Colleges can lock up half of their class before January, and acceptance rates are typically higher than under regular admission. The major drawback of early decision is that it leaves students who are in the market for the best financial aid package out in the cold. By applying early, you must enroll if accepted, so comparing awards with those of other schools is out of the question. Schools like that, of course, because it helps their bottom line. But there is a possible end run: Ask if a school will release you from yourobligation should its aid package fall short. In some cases, a school will roll you into the regular admission pool, allowing for comparison shopping come springtime.While some schools admit almost the same percentage of applicants during early and regular admission, many favor the early pool. Johns Hopkins University took 44 percent from its early round and 24 percent from the regular pool. Early birds at Hopkins make up a third of this fall's freshman class. Nonetheless, college counselors have seen borderline students get a boost by applying early decision. "If they aren't legacies, athletes, or an underrepresented minority, early decision may be the only hook that some students have," says Jim Conroy, chair of post-high-school counseling at New Trier Township High School in Winnetka, Ill. But you need to be realistic. "If a school is out of your reach, it's out of reach whether you apply early decision, early action, or regular admission," says Sarah Wilburn, a college counselor at Campus Bound in Quincy, Mass. "Move on and set some new goals."Advantage or not, applying early decision makes sense only if you're convinced that a school is a good fit for you. Erin Murray decided to apply to Dartmouth early despite the advice of her college counselor and others. They wanted her to improve her transcript after she had spent a semester of high school in Italy. But the teenager from Cheyenne, Wyo., wisely played up her experience abroad (her 4.0 GPA and top-class board scores didn't hurt, either) and was accepted. "I probably would have fit well at a number of schools," she admits, "but Dartmouth was the only place I could see myself walking across the greens. It was an instinctive reaction."If you lack the same certainty but clinching a slot before New Year's is appealing, consider other early admissions plans. Early action is a nonbinding alternative that allows you to apply by November 1 and hear back before the regular application deadline. Some highly selective schools require that you submit only one early action application--called single-choice early action--meaning you can't apply early elsewhere. Another option is to apply early to rolling admissions, where an application that arrives in the fall may stand out more than one that arrives with most of the others in January.1. Which one of the following statements is NOT true of early decision?A. Early decision is a common strategy adopted by universities to secure high rate of student enrollment.B. Early decision begins to be abandoned by top American universities.C. Early decision is a special treatment for rich students, athletes and minorities.D. Early decision will still be in practice for a fairly long time.2. The major disadvantage of early decision is that_____A. students can enjoy a less attractive the financial aid package if he chooses early decision.B. it excludes students who are from lower social class or poor family background.C. it does not allow students to choose the other better schools.D. it excludes students who want to have comparison shopping.3. What Sarah Wilburn wants to suggest students is that____A. early decision is not so advantageous as people think.B. students should not regard early decision as the sole way to college.C. students should evaluate themselves objectively before making early decision.D. students should not limit themselves in early decision.4.Wyo applied to Dartmouth because_____A. she was quite confident due to her rich experience of studying abroad.B. the university’s beautiful lawn aroused her affection.C. she found Dartmouth the only one that fit her after researching a bunch of universities.D. her 4.0 GPA and top-class board scores were not so ideal.5. The following options can be adopted by students lacking certainty of which school to apply to except_____A. applying to early action.B. applying to rolling admissions.C. applying to early decision.D. applying single-choice early action.Passage 3The U.N.-sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report released today in Brussels has a familiar ring. As the climate disasters headlined recently—intense hurricanes, drought in the American West, Arctic thawing (融化)—become commonplace in a greenhouse world, plants, animals, and people will suffer. That has been the presumption, but the latest report from the IPCC projecting greenhouse impacts calculates mounting costs that will fall the heaviest on the world’s poor.February’s IPCC report on the physical science of climate firmly links most of the recent warming of the world to human activity. Scientists authoring the second report had a tougher challenge: figuring out the likely consequences. To do that, they considered 29,000 datasets from 75 studies. Of those data series, 89% showed change—receding glaciers or earlier blooming, for example—consistent with a response to warming. Because those responses usually occurred where the warming has been greatest, the scientists concluded that it’s "very unlikely" the changes were due to natural variability of climate or of the system involved. "For the first time, we concluded anthropogenic (人类起源的) warming has had an influence on manyphysical and biological systems," says Cynthia Rosenzweig of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City, a coordinating lead author on the report.The IPCC scientists also projected the effects of future warming. Assuming that nothing is done to slow greenhouse emissions, the February report predicted a temperature increase of roughly 3℃ toward the end of the century, drying at lower latitudes, more precipitation at higher latitudes, and rising sea levels. "This report finds that such a warming will bleach most coral reefs by mid-century), drying will begin decreasing crop yields at lower latitudes within a few decades, and sea level riseand tropical cvclone intensification will increase the likelihood of millions of people being flooded out each year on river mega-deltas such as that of the Ganges-Brahmaputra in southern Asia.Bottom line? "You don’t want t o be poor and living on a river delta or the Florida coast," says climate scientist Stephen Schneider of Stanford University, a coordinating lead author. The poor— especially subsistence (生存) farmers—tend to be more vulnerable to climate change, notes the report. And they are least able to adapt, say by building levees (堤坝) against storms or dams for irrigation. Schneider’s other advice: "Try not to go over 2℃ or 3℃ because that triggers the really nasty stuff. With that much warming, the bad effects of this century only get worse, and the rare benefits, such as higher crop yields in wetter areas, fade.1.According to the first paragraph, the IPCC report______.A.sounds familiar to peopleB.has become commonplaceC.warns people of climate disastersD.has been presumed long before2.The latest IPCC report focuses on______.A.the likelihood that plants, animals, and people will sufferB.the heaviest costs of greenhouse impacts on the poor peopleC.the devastating climate disasters resulting from global warmingD.intense hurricanes, drought in the American West, and Arctic thawing3. Many data series show that climate changes, such as Arctic thawing,______.A.are a response to anthropogenic warmingB.result from the natural variability of climateC.influence many physical and biological systemsD.bring about tougher challenges to people4. According to IPCC scientists, the effects of future warming mayinclude______A.bleaching all coral reefs by mid-centuryB.higher crop yields in wetter areasC.more precipitation at lower latitudesD.numerous people in coastal areas being flooded out5. The authors of the IPCC report believe that______.A.the bottom line is not to live on a river deltaB.being richer is less vulnerable to climate changeC.something worse may arise from global warmingD.the warming of the temperature can bring higher crop yields Section Two信息匹配题10个statement匹配10个段落。

Directions:Translate the following two source texts into their target language respectively. If the source text is in English, its target language is Chinese. If thesource text is in Chinese, its target language is English. (120’)Source Text 1:The art of living is to know when to hold fast and when to let go. For life is a paradox: it enjoins us to cling to its many gifts even while it ordains their eventual relinquishment. The rabbis of old put it this way: “A man comes to this world with his fist clenched, but when he dies, his hand is open.” Surely we ought to hold fast to our life. For it is wondrous, and full of a beauty that breaks through every pore of God’s own earth. We know that this is so, but all too often we recognize this truth only in our backward glance when we remember what it was and then suddenly realize that it is no more. We remember a beauty that faded, a love that waned. But we remember with far greater pain that we did not see that beauty when it flowered, that we failed to respond with love when it was tendered.Hold fast to life——but not so fast that you cannot let go. This is the second side of life’s coin, the opposite pole of its paradox: we must accept our losses, and learn how to let go. This is not an easy lesson to learn, especially when we are young and think that the world is ours to command, that whatever we desire with the full force of our passionate being can, nay, will be ours. But then life moves along to confront us with realities, and slowly but surely this truth dawns upon us. At every stage of life we sustain losses——and grow in the process. We begin our independent lives only when we emerge from the womb and lose its protective shelter. We enter a progression of schools, then we leave our mothers and fathers and our childhood homes. We get married and have children and then have to let them go. We confront the death of our parents and spouses. We face the gradual or not so gradual waning of our own strength. And ultimately, as the parable of the open and closed hand suggests, we must confront the inevitability of our own demise, losing ourselves, as it were, all that we were or dreamed to be.

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 the Answer Sheet.Passage OneTraditional media may be declining in much of the rich world, but in poor countries it is booming. The growth in private media in developing countries has spurred much of the demand, as has new technology. That is stoking journalism training in far-flung places, in many shapes and sizes. They range from full degree programmes to the short-term specialist training offered widely across Asia, Africa and Latin America. Groups offering such courses include the BBC World Service Trust, the Reuters and Thomson Foundations, the Institute for War and Peace Reporting (IWPR) and Internews Network, a media-development charity based in America.These days the donors are particularly interested in niches, such as investigative reporting and science writing. But that approach sometimes fails. The need for basic reporting skills is still central. Trainers stress the need for flexibility. Participants in the courses praise the results, while plaining about the lack of focus and co-ordination among some providers. Shapi Shacinda, the Reuters correspondent in Zambia and chairman of the press club in the capital, Lusaka, says that foreign-backed training in business and economic reporting has helped bring more skeptical coverage. Previously, news stories used to be taken straight from officials' statements, he says.But governments are harder to teach. Encouraging students to probe sensitive topics may threaten their lives or livelihoods. An Iraqi journalist trained by and working with the IWPR was shot dead earlier this year. Just this week, Zambia's minister of information asserted that state-run media should not criticize the government. In Russia, an organization founded by Internews has been closed by the authorities, who were apparently suspicious of its American backing. Rich-country governments can be a problem too. Some try to influence the "messages〞that trainers deliver, for example by insisting that their diplomats talk to classes on a regular basis. The big training groups insist that they control their own content. Blurring the boundaries can be dangerous both for journalists and the programmes that support them, he notes. But others may be less choosy.More is not always better. Quality varies wildly. Places like Bangladesh and Rwanda have been showered with training in recent years. Gratitude is mixed with the wish for better co-ordination. David Okwemba of Kenya's The Nation newspaper, who also helps train journalists, bemoans(哀叹) overlap between courses and providers' failure to share information.Some courses aspire loftily to build democratic societies through a free press. The BBC trust says it aims to give a say to the mon man by holding institutions—public and private—to account. Such arange of goals makes measuring results difficult. Teaching how to point a camera or write a news story may be easy pared to raising awareness of broader issues such as HIV/AIDS.Many old news hands laugh at the notion of formal journalism education. A well-stocked and inquiring mind plus sharp writing skills are the main assets, they reckon. But even the most grey-haired veterans of rich-world journalism still seem glad to earn extra money tutoring new hands in poor countries.1. Traditional media is booming in poor countries because of the following reasons except_____A. the private media is developing at a fast pace.B. the new technology provides technical foundation.C. there are many journalism trainings in various shapes and sizes.D. the demand for traditional media has been in steady increase.2. Which one of the following statements is TRUE of the present training in those poor countries"A. The trainers are paying more attention on skills of investigative reporting and science writing.B. The courses are mostly extensive rather than being intensive.C. The training puts emphasis on the flexibility of basic reporting skills.D. Some trainees are satisfactory with the training courses while some are plaining.3. Shapi Shacinda think foreign-backed training in business and economic reporting has helped bring more skeptical coverage because_____A. there is a conservative tradition of news reporting in these countries.B. the foreign-backed training is skeptical about the previous news stories in these countries.C. there exist some problems in the concept of news report in these countries.D. the governments order that news stories should be taken from officials’ statements.4. From the third paragraph, it can be inferred that Shapi Shacinda thinks_____A. the training is in short of teaching the tactics to deal with different government.B. it is still mon for governments of less-developed countries to interfere with journalism.C. the training had better not involve itself into unnecessary disputes.D. the training should stress more on journalism independence from the government. 5.Towards the journalism training, the attitudes of veterans of journalism can be said to be _____A. critical.B. despicable.C. inconsistent.D. supportive.Passage 2When Princeton, the University of Virginia, and Harvard announced last fall that they would drop their early admissions options because they gave an unfair advantage to wealthy students, many college counselors held their breath. Would early decision go the way of kegs in dormitories" Not for now, at least. Early admission is still going strong at many colleges and universities, including many top-tier schools.Early decision in particular--in which a student mits to a first-choice institution--is often touted as a plus for both schools and students. Colleges can lock up half of their class before January, and acceptance rates are typically higher than under regular admission. The major drawback of early decision is that it leaves students who are in the market for the best financial aid package out in the cold. By applying early, you must enroll if accepted, so paring awards with those of other schools is out of the question. Schools like that, of course, because it helps their bottom line. But there is apossible end run: Ask if a school will release you from your obligation should its aid package fall short. In some cases, a school will roll you into the regular admission pool, allowing for parison shopping e springtime.While some schools admit almost the same percentage of applicants during early and regular admission, many favor the early pool. Johns Hopkins University took 44 percent from its early round and 24 percent from the regular pool. Early birds at Hopkins make up a third of this fall's freshman class. Nonetheless, college counselors have seen borderline students get a boost by applying early decision. "If they aren't legacies, athletes, or an underrepresented minority, early decision may be the only hook that some students have," says Jim Conroy, chair of post-high-school counseling at New Trier Township High School in Winnetka, Ill. But you need to be realistic. "If a school is out of your reach, it's out of reach whether you apply early decision, early action, or regular admission," says Sarah Wilburn, a college counselor at Campus Bound in Quincy, Mass. "Move on and set some new goals."Advantage or not, applying early decision makes sense only if you're convinced that a school is a good fit for you. Erin Murray decided to apply to Dartmouth early despite the advice of her college counselor and others. They wanted her to improve her transcript after she had spent a semester of high school in Italy. But the teenager from Cheyenne, Wyo., wisely played up her experience abroad (her 4.0 GPA and top-class board scores didn't hurt, either) and was accepted. "I probably would have fit well at a number of schools," she admits, "but Dartmouth was the only place I could see myself walking across the greens. It was an instinctive reaction."If you lack the same certainty but clinching a slot before New Year's is appealing, consider other early admissions plans. Early action is a nonbinding alternative that allows you to apply by November 1 and hear back before the regular application deadline. Some highly selective schools require that you submit only one early action application--called single-choice early action--meaning you can't apply early elsewhere. Another option is to apply early to rolling admissions, where an application that arrives in the fall may stand out more than one that arrives with most of the others in January.1. Which one of the following statements is NOT true of early decision"A. Early decision is a mon strategy adopted by universities to secure high rate of student enrollment.B. Early decision begins to be abandoned by top American universities.C. Early decision is a special treatment for rich students, athletes and minorities.D. Early decision will still be in practice for a fairly long time.2. The major disadvantage of early decision is that_____A. students can enjoy a less attractive the financial aid package if he chooses early decision.B. it excludes students who are from lower social class or poor family background.C. it does not allow students to choose the other better schools.D. it excludes students who want to have parison shopping.3. What Sarah Wilburn wants to suggest students is that____A. early decision is not so advantageous as people think.B. students should not regard early decision as the sole way to college.C. students should evaluate themselves objectively before making early decision.D. students should not limit themselves in early decision.4.Wyo applied to Dartmouth because_____A. she was quite confident due to her rich experience of studying abroad.B. the university’s beautiful lawn aroused her affection.C. she found Dartmouth the only one that fit her after researching a bunch of universities.D. her 4.0 GPA and top-class board scores were not so ideal.5. The following options can be adopted by students lacking certainty of which school to apply to except_____A. applying to early action.B. applying to rolling admissions.C. applying to early decision.D. applying single-choice early action.Passage 3The U.N.-sponsored Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change(IPCC)report released today in Brussels has a familiar ring. As the climate disasters headlined recently—intense hurricanes, drought in the American West, Arctic thawing (融化)—bee monplace in a greenhouse world, plants, animals, and people will suffer.That has been the presumption, but the latest report from the IPCC projecting greenhouse impacts calculates mounting costs that will fall the heaviest on the world’s poor. February’s IPCC report on the physical science of climate firmly lin ks most of the recent warming of the world to human activity.Scientists authoring the second report had a tougher challenge: figuring out the likely consequences. To do that, they considered 29,000 datasets from 75 studies. Of those data series, 89% showed change—receding glaciers or earlier blooming, for example—consistent with a response to warming.Because those responses usually occurred where the warming has been greatest, the scientists concluded that it’s "very unlikely" the changes were due to natural variability of climate or of the system involved. "For the first time, we concluded anthropogenic (人类起源的) warming has had an influence on many physical and biological systems," says Cynthia Rosenzweig of NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York City, a coordinating lead author on the report.The IPCC scientists also projected the effects of future warming.Assuming that nothing is done to slow greenhouse emissions, the February report predicted a temperature increase of roughly 3℃toward the end of the century, drying at lower latitudes, more precipitation at higher latitudes, and rising sea levels. "This report finds that such a warming will bleach most coral reefs by mid-century), drying will begin decreasing crop yields at lower latitudes within a few decades, and sea level rise and tropical cvclone intensification will increase the likelihood of millions of people being flooded out each year on river mega-deltas such as that of the Ganges-Brahmaputra in southern Asia.Bottom line" "You don’t want to be poor and living on a river delta or the Florida coast," says climate scientist Stephen Schneider of Stanford University, a coordinating lead author. The poor—especially subsistence (生存) farmers—tend to be more vulnerable to climate change, notes the report. And they are least able to adapt, say by building levees (堤坝) against storms or dams for irrigation. Schneider’s other advice: "Try not to go over 2℃ or 3℃ because that triggers the really nasty stuff. With that much warming, the bad effects of this century only get worse, and the rare benefits, such as higher crop yields in wetter areas, fade.1.According to the first paragraph, the IPCC report______.A.sounds familiar to peopleB.has bee monplaceC.warns people of climate disastersD.has been presumed long before2.The latest IPCC report focuses on______.A.the likelihood that plants, animals, and people will sufferB.the heaviest costs of greenhouse impacts on the poor peopleC.the devastating climate disasters resulting from global warmingD.intense hurricanes, drought in the American West, and Arctic thawing3. Many data series show that climate changes, such as Arctic thawing, ______.A.are a response to anthropogenic warmingB.result from the natural variability of climateC.influence many physical and biological systemsD.bring about tougher challenges to people4. According to IPCC scientists, the effects of future warming may include______A.bleaching all coral reefs by mid-centuryB.higher crop yields in wetter areasC.more precipitation at lower latitudesD.numerous people in coastal areas being flooded out5. The authors of the IPCC report believe that______.A.the bottom line is not to live on a river deltaB.being richer is less vulnerable to climate changeC.something worse mayarise from global warmingD.the warming of the temperature can bring higher crop yieldsSection Two信息匹配题10个statement匹配10个段落。

<As China Rolls Ahead, Fear Follows>
For nearly two years, China’s turbocharged economy has raced ahead with the aid of

low to give Chinese exporters a competitive advantage.
Beijing contends that raising the value of its currency would hurt coastal factories

Analysts say more tightening measures are expected in the coming months but that the
that operate on thin profit margins, forcing them to lay off millions of workers.

the risk that a flood of cash into China, coupled with soaring inflation, could result

The current limitations of internet learning are actually those of publishing world: who creates a quality product that offers a coherent analysis of the world we live in? The answer has to lie in a group of people, organized in some way both intellectually and technologically. In the past this has usually been through books and articles. Some of the learning successes of the internet illustrate just how this can work in practice. A classic example is Wikipedia, an online encyclopedia created on a largely voluntary basis by contributors. The underlying mechanism of Wikipedia are technological: you can author an article by following hyperlinks—and the instructions. There are intellectual mechanisms built in, looking at the quality of what is submitted. This does not mean that the articles are equally good, or equal in quality to those encyclopedias created by expert, paid authors. However, there is no doubt that the service is a useful tool, and a fascinating demonstration of the power of distributed volunteer networks.A commercial contrast—which is also free—is the very rigorous Wolfram mathematics site, which has definitions and explanations of many key mathematical concepts. For students who use them with the same academic, critical approach they should apply to any source of information, such resources are useful tools, especially when supplemented by those of national organizations such as the Library of Congress, the National Science Foundation and other internationally recognized bodies. There are, of course, commercially available library services that offer electronic versions of printed media, such as journals, for both professional and academic groups, and there is already a fundamental feature of higher and professional education. Regardless of the medium through which they learn, people have to be critical users of information, but at the same time the information has to be appealing and valuable to the learner.

To display personal charm in a casual and natural way, it is important for one to have a clear knowledge of oneself. A master packager knows how to integrate art and nature without any traces of embellishment, so that the person so packaged is no commodity but a human being, lively and lovely.

themselves as shy,while only 20 percent say they have never suffered from shyness at some point in their lives.Shyness occurs when a person's apprehensions are so great that they 62his making an expected or desired social response.63 of shyness can be as minor as 64 to make eye contact when speaking to someone,65as major as avoiding conversations whenever possible."Shy people tend to be too 66 with themselves,"said Jonathan Cheek,a psychologist,who is one of those at the forefront of current research on the topic."67,for a smooth conversation,you need to pay attention to the other person's cues,68 he is saying and doing.But the shy person is full of 69about how he seems to the other person,and so he often 70cues he should pick up.The result is an awkward lag in the conversation.Shy people need to stop focusing on 71 and switch their attention to the other person."72,shy people by and large have73social abilities than they think they do.74Dr.Cheek videotaped shy people talking to 75,and then had raters(评估者)evaluate how socially skilled the people were,he found that,in the 76of other people,the shy group had few 77 problems.But when he asked the shy people themselves 78 they had done,they were unanimous in saying that they had been social hops(失败)."Shy people are their own 79 critics,"Dr.Cheek said.80,he added,shy people feel they are being judged more

D)objectively原文精译美国大概40%的人认为自己很害羞,只有20%的人认为自己一生都没有害羞过一个人忧惧过重,害怕自己的表现达不到社会的期待,这时就会害羞害羞的征兆,轻则表现为和人交流时不敢直视对方的眼睛,重则表现为何时何地都不敢和人交谈心理学家Jonathan Cheek是目前研究此课题的先驱人物之一,他说,“害羞的人太关注自身了比如,想要交流顺利,需要关注对方给出的暗示,他在说什么,做什么但是害羞的人只关注自己在对方眼中的形象,经常忽略他本该获得的提示,结果往往导致交流中的滞后,让人尴尬害羞的人不能只关注自己,需要把注意力转向他人”无论如何,大体上来讲,害羞的人社交能力比他们自己想象的要好Dr.Cheek将害羞的人和陌生人的交流过程进行了录像,然后找来评估人员对这些人的社交技巧进行评价他发现,在他人看来,这些害羞的人基本没有明显的问题;然而,当他让害羞的人自我评价时,这些人异口同声地说,在社交方面自己是个失败者Dr.Cheek说,“害羞的人是自身最苛刻的批评家”他接着说,一般来讲,害羞的人感觉别人对自己的评价很负面,事实并非如此;他们过高地估计了自己的社交焦虑,其实在他人眼中并没有那么明显62.答案B解析:考生要特别注意,此句中的they指代前面的主语apprehensions,忧惧过多,就阻碍了他们的反应选项A、B、C都有“阻碍”之意,A和C的常用搭配是prevent/keep sb.(from)doing sth.,而B的常用搭配为prohibit doing sth D意为“鼓励,刺激”,常用搭配为motivate sb.to do sth.63.答案A解析:考生要注意名词词义辨析A中的symptom意为“症状,征兆”;B中的signal意为“信号,标志”;C中的highlight意为“精彩部分,最重要的细节或事件,闪光点”;D中的incidence 意为“发生”此句的意思为,害羞的表现征兆64.答案B解析:解答本题要注意上下文本句大意为:害羞的征兆有两类,一类比较细微,一类却比较严重前后两种征兆呈排比结构,后半句用到了动词avoid,前半句相对应,选择同义动词fail,表示“不能直视他人”65.答案C解析:本空前后是两种可能性的排比,用or连接,表示“或者”,指害羞的轻微征兆和严重征兆66.答案A解析:本空考查动词搭配A的搭配为be preoccupied with;而选项B、C、D则常和介词in搭配67.答案C解析:考生要注意前后两句话的关系Jonathan Cheek认为害羞的人太关注自身接下来说,在交流过程中,他们太关注自身在对方眼中的形象从中可以看出,Jonathan Cheek举了个例子来说明害羞的人对自身的关注68.答案C解析:此空和前面的the other persons'cues并列,都做pay attention to的宾语宾语从句中say和do缺少宾语,用what来充当69.答案A解析:选项A中worries表示“担忧,担心”;选项B中feelings表示“感觉,知觉,气氛,鉴赏力”;选项C中emotions表示“感情”;选项D中indifferences意为“冷淡,漠不关心”根据上文,害羞的人担心他人对自己的看法70.答案C解析:上一句话中讲,害羞的人太担心自己在他人心目中的印象,所以会常常错过本该注意到的提示考生选择时,要注意前后两句话的逻辑关系71.答案D解析:本段一直在讲害羞的人太关注自身,在交流中才会出现问题所以他们应该转移注意力,不要把精力一直放在自身所以在这里选择反身代词themselves72.答案B解析:此空的选择要联系上下文前一段讲害羞的人太注意自身,交流中出现了某些问题;而此空的后一段讲,害羞的人和陌生人交流时,表现没有什么大问题根据前后关系,选择B表示“不管怎么说,无论如何”73.答案C解析:此空的选择也要联系上下文前面讲害羞的人交流中出现了某些问题;而后面讲害羞的人和陌生人交流时,实际表现没有什么大问题所以,他们的社交能力比他们想象的要好74.答案A解析:此空是对连词的选择,考生要注意前后两句话之间的关系when表示“当……的时候”,since表示“自从”,while强调前后两个动作同时发生,或者后面的动作发生在前面的动作行为期间;as也强调动作同时进行,还可以表示原因75.答案C解析:考生要注意这个实验,是观察害羞的人的社交能力如果是和朋友交流,害羞的人就会比较随意,结果可能不太客观;而选项D中的others既包括陌生人,也包括朋友,所以在这里选择C76.答案D解析:此空考查名词短语in the name of意为“以……的名义”,terms的短语一般为in terms of,意为“就……而言,在……方面”,case一般用于in this case,表示“在这种情况下”,in the eyes of sb.表示“在……看来”77.答案B解析:本句前后语义为,在他人看来,害羞的人并没有表现出很多问题答案选obvious,意为“明显的”选项A中oblivious常作表语,用在be oblivious of中,表示“忘记,不注意”,用在be oblivious to中,意为“对……不在意”;选项C中的oblique,意为“拐弯抹角的”,选项D中的obscure,表示“模糊的,艰涩难懂的”78.答案C解析:do作为不及物动词,经常和副词连用,或者在疑问句中用在how之后,表示“进展,表现”,如:How is the business doing?(生意如何?)79.答案D解析:根据上文,害羞的人对自己要求很严格,总觉得自己表现不是很好而选项中的A、B、C都是褒义词80.答案C解析:考生要注意对四个短语的理解选项A中的in particular,意为“特别,尤其”;选项B中的in contrast意为“相反”;选项C中的in general意为“一般来讲”;选项D中的in comparison 意为“比较起来”这里Dr.Cheek在讨论一般情况81.答案B解析:从整篇文章来讲,害羞的人总是认为自己表现的不是很好,他人对自己的评价也不会很高,所以在这里选择B,negatively意为“消极地,负面地”阅读理解一原文,真题有删节January 10,1986Op-Ed:Against a One-Term,6-Year PresidentBy ARTHUR SCHLESINGER JR.he proposal of a single six-year Presidential term has been around for a long time.High-minded men have urged it from the beginning of the Republic.The Constitutional Convention turned it down in 1787,and recurrent efforts to put it in the Constitution have regularly failed in the two centuries since.Quite right:It is a terrible idea for a number of reasons,among them that it is at war with the philosophy of democracy.The basic argument for the one-term,six-year Presidency is that the quest for re-election is at the heart of our problems with self-government.The desire for re-election,it is claimed,drives Presidents to do things they would not otherwise do.It leads them to make easy promises and to postpone hard decisions.A single six-year term would liberate Presidents from the pressures and temptations of politics.Instead of worrying about re-election,they would be free to do only what was best for the country.The argument is superficially attractive.But when you think about it,it is profoundly anti-democratic in its implications.It assumes Presidents know better than anyone else what is best for the country and that the people are so wrongheaded and ignorant that Presidents should be encouraged to disregard their wishes.It assumes that the less responsive a President is to popular desires and needs,the better President he will be.It assumes that the democratic process is the obstacle to wise decisions.The theory of American democracy is quite the opposite.It is that the give-and-take of the democratic process is the best source of wise decisions.It is that the President's duty is not to ignore and override popular concerns but to acknowledge and heed them.It is that the President's accountability to the popular will is the best guarantee that he will do a good job.The one-term limitation,as Gouverneur Morris,final draftsman of the Constitution,persuaded the convention,would''destroy the great motive to good behavior,''which is the hope of re-election.A President,said Oliver Ellsworth,another Founding Father,''should be re-elected if his conduct prove worthy of it.And he will be more likely to render himself worthy of it if he be rewardable with it.''Few things have a more tonic effect on a President's sensitivity to public needs and hopes than the desire for re-election.''A President immunized from political considerations,''Clark Clifford told the Senate Judiciary Committee when it was considering the proposal some years ago,''is a President who need not listen to the people,respond to majority sentiment or pay attention to views that may be diverse,intense and perhaps at variance with his own....Concern for one's own political future can be a powerful stimulus to responsible and responsive performance in office.''We all saw the tempering effect of the desire for re-election on Ronald Reagan in 1984.He dropped his earlier talk about the''evil empire,''announced a concealed passion for arms control,slowed down the movement toward intervention in Central America,affirmed his loyalty to Social Security and the''safety net''and in other ways moderated his hard ideological positions.A single six-year term would have given Reaganite ideology full,uninhibited sway.The ban on re-election has other perverse consequences.Forbidding a President to run again,Gouverneur Morris said,is''as much as to say that we should give him the benefit of experience,and then deprive ourselves of the use of it.''George Washington stoutly opposed the idea.''I can see no propriety,''he wrote,''in precluding ourselves from the service of any man,who on some great emergency shall be deemed universally most capable of serving the public.'' Jefferson,after initially favoring a single seven-year term,thought more carefully and changed his mind.Seven years,he concluded,were''too long to be irremovable'';''service for eight years with a power to remove at the end of the first four''was the way to do it.Woodrow Wilson agreed,observing that a six-year term is too long for a poor President and too short for a good one and that the decision belongs to the people.''By seeking to determine by fixed constitutional provision what the people are perfectly competent to determine by themselves,''Wilson said in 1913,''we cast a doubt upon the whole theory of popular government.''A single six-year term would release Presidents from the test of submitting their records to the voters.It would enshrine the''President-knows-best''myth,which has already got us into sufficient trouble as a nation.It would be a mighty blow against Presidential accountability.It would be a mighty reinforcement of the imperial Presidency.It would be an impeachment of the democratic process itself.The Founding Fathers were everlastingly right when they turned down this well-intentioned but ill-considered proposal 200 years ago.Arthur Schlesinger Jr.,whose new book''The Cycles of American History''will be published later this year,is professor of the humanities at the City University of New York.TEXT B是2010年专四真题Graduation speeches are a bit like wedding toasts.A few are memorable.The rest tend to trigger such thoughts as,"Why did I wear such uncomfortable shoes?"But graduation speeches are less about the message than the messenger.Every year a few colleges and universities in the US attract attention because they've managed to book high-profile speakers.And,every year,the media report some of these speakers'wise remarks.Last month,the following words of wisdom were spread:"You really haven't completed the circle of success unless you can help somebody else move forward."(Oprah Winfrey,Duke University)."There is no way to stop change;change will come.Go out and give us a future worthy of the world we all wish to create together."(Hillary Clinton,New York University)."'This really is your moment.History is yours to bend."(Joe Biden,Wake Forest University).Of course,the real"get"of the graduation season was first lady Michelle Obama's appearance at the University of California,Merced."Remember that you are blessed,"she told the class of 2009,"Remember that in exchange for those blessings,you must give something back...As advocate and activist Marian Wright Edelman says,'Service is the rent we pay for living...it is the true measure,the only measure of success'."Calls to service have a long,rich tradition in these speeches.However,it is possible for a graduation speech to go beyond cliche and say something truly compelling.The late writer DavidFoster Wallace's 2005 graduation speech at Kenyon College in Ohio talked about how to truly care about other people.It gained something of a cult after it was widely circulated on the Internet.Apple Computer CEO Steve Jobs'address at Stanford University that yea(更多考试资讯尽在/)r,in which he talked about death,is also considered one of the best in recent memory.But when you're sitting in the hot sun,fidgety and freaked out,do you really want to be lectured aboutthe big stuff?.Isn't that like trying to maintain a smile at your wedding reception while some relative gives a toast that amounts to"marriage is hard work"?You know he's right;you just don't want to think about it at that particular moment.In fact,as is the case in many major life moments,you can't really manage to think beyond the blisters your new shoes are causing.That may seem anticlimactic.But it also gets to the heart of one of life's greatest,saddest truths:that our most"memorable"occasions may elicit the fewest memories.It's probably not something most graduation speakers would say,but it's one of the first lessons of growing up.91.According to the passage,most graduation speeches tend to recall____memories.A.greatB.trivialC.unforgettableD.unimaginative92."But graduation speeches are less about the message than the messenger"is explainedA.in the final paragraph.B.in the last but one paragraph.C.in the first paragraph.D.in the same paragraph.93.The graduation speeches mentioned in the passage are related to the following themes EXCEPTA.death.B.success.C.service.D.generosity.94.It is implied in the passage that at great moments people fail toA.remain clear-headed.B.keep good manners.C.remember others'words.D.recollect specific details.95.What is"one of the first lessons of growing up"?A.Attending a graduation ceremony.B.Listening to graduation speeches.C.Forgetting details of memorable events.D.Meeting high-profile graduation speakersText c是2007年的专四真题,是问答题,题目和原来的选项有所不同The kids are hanging out.I pass small bands of students,in my way to work these mornings.They have become a familiar part of the summer landscape.These kids are not old enough for jobs.Nor are they rich enough for camp.They are school children without school.The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago.Once supervised by teachers and principals,they now appear to be“self care”.Passing them is like passing through a time zone.For much of our history,after all,Americans arranged the school year around the needs of work and family.In 19th-century cities,schools were open seven or eight hours a day,11 months a year.In rural America,the year was arranged around the growing season.Now,only 3 percent of families follow the agricultural model,but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops.Now,three-quarters of the mothers of school-age children work,but the calendar is written as if they were home waiting for the school bus.The six-hour day,the 180-day school year is regarded as something holy.But when parents work an eight-hour day and a 240-day year,it means something different.It means that many kidsgo home to empty houses.It means that,in the summer,they hang out.“We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family life,”says Dr.Ernest Boyer,head of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching.Dr.Boyer is one of many who believe that a radical revision of the school cale ndar is inevitable.“School,whether we like it or not,is educational.It always has been.”His is not popular idea.School are routinely burdened with the job of solving all our social problems.Can they be asked to meet the needs of our work and family lives?It may be easier to promote a longer school year on its educational merits and,indeed,the educational case is compelling.Despite the complaints and studies about our kids’lack of learning,the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation.In most of Europe,the school year is 220 days.In Japan,it is 240 days long.While classroom time alone doesn’t produce a well-educated child,learning takes time and more learning takes more time.The long summers of forgetting take a toll.95.Which of the following is an opinion of the author’s?____A____A.“The kids are hanging out.”B.“They are school children without school.”C.“These kids are not old enough for jobs.”D.“The calendar called the school year ran out on them a few weeks ago.”解析:A 第一段的第一句:“The kids are hanging out.”跟第二段的最后一句:“Once supervised by teachers and principals,they now appear to be“self care”.相呼应作者的观点是现在的孩子上学的时间太短,很多时间都在外闲逛,无所事事这里的hang out 是指在某地逗留,浪费时间后面也可以加个地方,旨在那个地方逗留,浪费时间也可以with某人,指与某人在一起瞎混,浪费时间例如:You guys spent too much time hanging out.你们花太多时间瞎混了B、C、D是客观事实陈述,并不是作者观点96.The current American school calendar was developed in the 19th century according to____A____A.the growing season on nation’s farm.B.the labor demands of the industrial age.C.teachers’demands for more vacation t ime.D.parents’demands for other experiences for their kids.解析:A 第三段提到:“In rural America,the year was arranged around the growing season.Now,only 3 percent of families follow the agricultural model,but nearly all schools are scheduled as if our children went home early to milk the cows and took months off to work the crops.(19世纪的时候,上学时间是根据农时来决定的现在虽然只有3%的家庭从事农业,但几乎所有的学校的校历安排似乎是让孩子们早早回家去挤牛奶或是花上几个月时间去地里种庄稼.)97.The author thinks that the current school calendar____A____.A.is still valid.B.is out of date.C.can not be revised.D.can not be defended.解析:B 从第三段可知,现有的校历是根据以前的情况制定的,已经不能适应现在的情况了98.Why was Dr.Boy’s idea unpopular?____D____A.He argues for the role of school in solving social problems.B.He supports the current school calendar.C.He thinks that school year and family life should be considered separately.D.He strongly believes in the educational role of school.解析:D A和B明显与文章不符A指的是大众的观点;B选项Dr.Boy是不赞同现有的校历的C选项与文章相反,文中提到Dr.Boy’s idea:“We have a huge mismatch between the school calendar and realities of family li fe,”…“School,whether we like it or not,is educational.It always has been.”意思是如今的校历安排与现实生活脱节,暗指应该把两者结合起来99.“The long summers of forgetting take a toll”in the last paragraph but one means that____C____.A.long summer vacation slows down the progress of learning.B.long summer vacation has been abandoned in Europe.C.long summers result in less learning time.D.long summers are a result of tradition.解析:C 细看这句话:“learning takes time more learning takes more time,the long summer's forgetting take a toll.”take a toll意思是造成损失或有不良的影响这句话意思是:“学习要时间,更多学习要更多时间,而长时间的暑假会影响(它),会对(它)造成不好影响”文中作者的观点是现有的校历学习的时间不够长,“Despite the complaints and studies about ourkids’lack of learning,the United State still has a shorter school year than any industrial nation.”(虽然我们抱怨和研究我们的孩子学习不够,然而在美国,上学时间仍然比其他任何工业国家的都要短)100.The main purpose of the passage is____C____A.to describe how American children spend their summer.B.to explain the needs of the modern working families.C.to discuss the problems of the current school calendar.D.to persuade parents to stay at home to look after their kids.Text D是2002年的专八真题,考题是问答题形式It is nothing new that English use is on the rise around the world,especially in business circles.This also happens in France,the headquarters of the global battle against American cultural hegemony.If French guys are giving in to English,something really big must be going on.And something big is going on.Partly,it s that American hegemony.Didier Benchimol,CEO of a French e-commerce software company,feels compelled to speak English perfectly because the Internet software business is dominated by Americans.He and other French businessmen also have to speak English because they want to get their message out to American investors,possessors of the world s deepest pockets.The triumph of English in France and elsewhere in Europe,however,may rest on something more enduring.As they become entwined with each other politically and economically,Europeans need a way to talk to one another and to the rest of the world.And for a number of reasons,they've decided upon English as their common tongue.So when German chemical and pharmaceutical company Hoechst merged with French competitor Rhone-Poulenc last year,the companies chose the vaguely Latinate Aventis as the new company name-and settled on English as the company's common language.When monetary policymakers from around Europe began meeting at the European Central Bank in Frankfurt last year to set interest rates for the new Euroland,they held their deliberations in English.Even the European Commission,with 11 official languages and traditionally French-speaking bureaucracy,effectively switched over to English as its working language last year.How did this happen?One school attributes English s great success to the sheer weight of its merit.It s a Germanic language,brought to Britain around the fifth century A.D.During the four centuries of French-speaking rule that followed Norman Conquest of 1066,the language morphed into something else entirely.French words were added wholesale,and most of the complications of Germanic grammar were shed while few of the complications of French were added.The result is a language with a huge vocabulary and a simple grammar that can express most things more efficiently than either of its parents.What's more,English has remained ungoverned and open to change-foreign words,coinages,and grammatical shifts-in a way that French,ruled by the purist Academic Francaise,had not.So it's a swell language,especially for business.But the rise of English over the past few centuries clearly owes at least as much to history and economics as to the language's ability to economically express the concept win-win.What happened is that the competition-first Latin,then French,then,briefly,German-faded with the waning of the political,economic,and military fortunes of,respectively,the Catholic Church,France,and Germany.All along,English was increasing in importance:Britain was the birthplace of the Industrial Revolution,and London the world's most important financial centre,which made English a key language for business.England s colonies around the world also made it the language with the most global reach.And as that former colonythe U.S.rose to the status of the world's preeminent political economic,military,and cultural power,English became the obvious second language to learn.In the 1990s more and more Europeans found themselves forced to use English.The last generation of business and government leaders who hadn't studied English in school was leaving the stage.The European Community was adding new members and evolving from a paper-shuffling club into a serious regional government that would need a single common language if it were ever to get anything done.Meanwhile,economic barriers between European nations have been disappearing,meaning that more and more companies are beginning to look at the whole continent as their domestic market.And then the Internet came along.The Net had two big impacts.One was that it was an exciting,potentially lucrative new industry that had its roots in the U.S.,so if you wanted to get in on it,you had to speak some English.The other was that by surfing the Web,Europeans who had previously encountered English only in school and in pop songs were now coming into contact with it daily.None of this means English has taken over European life.According to the European Union,47%of Western Europeans(including the British and Irish)speak English well enough to carry on a conversation.That's a lot more than those who can speak German(32%)or French (28%),but it still means more Europeans don't speak the language.If you want to sell shampoo or cell phones,you have to do it in French or German or Spanish or Greek.Even the U.S.and British media companies that stand to benefit most from the spread of English have been hedging their bets-CNN broadcasts in Spanish;the Financial Times has recently launched a daily German-language edition.But just look at who speaks English:77%of Western European college students,69%of managers,and 65%of those aged 15 to 24.In the secondary schools of the European Union's non-English-speaking countries,91%of students study English,all of which means that the transition to English as the language of European business hasn't been all that traumatic,and it s only going to get easier in the future.24.In the author s opinion,what really underlies the rising status of English in France and Europe is______.〔A〕American dominance in
