Please read the passages and then write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.An allowance is an important tool for teaching kids how to budget, save and make their own decisions. Children remember and learn from mistakes when their own dollars are lost or spent foolishly.How large an allowance is appropriate? Experts say there is not a right amount. Actual amounts differ from region to region, and from family to family.To set an appropriate allowance for your child, work up a weekly budget. Allow for entertainment expenditures such as movies and snacks. Next, include everyday expenses such as lunch money, bus fare, and school supplies. "If you make the child responsible for these bills," says Josephine Swanson, a consumer specialist, "he or she will learn to budget for necessary expenditures."Finally, add some extra money to make saving possible. If you can, keep your child"s allowance in line with that of his friends. A child whose purchasing power falls away below his peers" can feel left out.It can be tough, but avoid excusing your children when they make a mistake with their allowance. When Brooke Stephens was ten and growing up in Jacksonville, her mother gave her $5 a week, $1.75 of which was for bus fare and lunch. "If you lose your money," Brooke"s mother told her, "you walk home" One week the girl spent all her allowance in a candy store, then she called home for a ride. "Morn made me walk home," recalls Stephens, now a financial planner in Brooklyn. "At first I was angry. But I finally realized that she was trying to teach me an important lesson." Experts advise that an allowance should not be tied directly to a child"s daily chores. Kids should help around the house not because they get paid for it but because they share responsibilities as members of a family. You might, however, pay a child for doing extra jobs at home, which can develop his or her initiative.1. What does the text mainly discuss?A. How to develop a child"s initiativeB. How to work up an amount of pocket moneyC. How to teach a child to save moneyD. How to teach a child about money2. It can be inferred from the passage that if a child is given an allowance, he or she may ______.A. spend all the money very soonB. be spoiled and finally ruinedC. feel responsible and careful about moneyD. lose the money and cannot return home3. In Paragraph 3, the words "his peers" refer to ______.A. his parentsB. his teachersC. his financial expertsD. his friends4. Why does the author mention Brooke Stephens?A. To question the opinion about pocket moneyB. To compare Stephens with other financial expertsC. To explain that parents should be strict when developing children"s good habits about moneyD. To suggest that pocket money is useless in developing a child"s sense of responsibility5. The author implies in the passage that ______.A. paying children for their housework is no goodB. a child"s initiative can be developed if he or she is paid for all the houseworkC. children may feel lost and lonely if they have no pocket moneyD. children may learn to put aside some money if they are given a great amount of pocket money Nowadays, a cellphone service is available to everyone, everywhere. Probably thousands of people have already been using it, but I just discovered it, so I"m going to claim it and also name it: Fake Foning.The technology has been working well for me at the office, but there are infinite applications. In fact in any public space.Say you work at a big university with lots of talky faculty members buzzing about. Now, say you need to use the restroom. The trip down the hall will take approximately one hour, because a person can"t walk into those talky people without getting pulled aside for a question, a bit ofgossip, a new read on a certain line ofParadise Lost.So, a cellphone. Any cellphone. Just pick it up. Don"t dial. Just hold that phone to your face and start talking. Walk confidently down the hall engaged in fake conversation, making sure to tailor both the topic and content to the person standing before you whom you are trying to evade.For standard colleague avoidance, I suggest fake chatting about fake business: "Yes, I"m m glad you called, because we really need to think about the details. What"s that? Yes, I read Page 12, but if you look at the bottom of 4, I think you can see the problem begins right there."Be animated. Be engaged in your fake fone conversation. Make eye contact with the people passing, nod to them, gesture keen interest in talking to them at a later time, point to your phone, shrug and move on.Shoppers should consider fake foning anytime they spot a talky neighbor in the produce department pinching unripe peaches. Without your phone at your face, you"d be in for a 20-minute speech on how terrible the world is.One important caution about fake foning. The other day I was fake foning my way past a colleague, and he was actually following me to get my attention. I knew he wanted to ask about a project I had not yet finished. I was trying to buy myself some time, so I continued lake foning with my doctor. "So I don"t need the operation? Oh, doctor, that is the best news."And then: Brrrrrmg! Brrrrrmg! Brrrrrmg! My phone started ringing, right there while it was planted on my face. My colleague looked at me, and I at him, and naturally I gasped. "What is the matter with this thing? said, pulling the phone away to look at it, and then putting it back to my ear."Hello? Are you still there?"Oops.6. Which of the following statements is INCORRECT?A. Cellphone service is popular among peopleB. Cellphone has much use in officeC. Fake foning is a new cellphone serviceD. Fake foning is a new discovery7. What is fake foning?A. A strategy to avoid peopleB. A device newly producedC. A service provided everywhereD. A skill of communication8. In the author"s opinion, in order to make fake foning look real one has to ______.A. talk about interesting mattersB. behave politely to people passing byC. hold the phone while walkingD. appear absorbed in conversation9. What does the last example show?A. One effective way is to fake fone one"s doctorB. One has to be careful while fake foningC. Fake foning may not deceive peopleD. Fake foning is always quite successful10. After his phone suddenly began ringing, the author ______.A. immediately started talking to the callerB. immediately started talking to his colleagueC. put the phone away and stopped talkingD. continued with his fake conversationWill there ever be another Einstein? This is the undercurrent of conversation at Einstein memorial meetings throughout the year. A new Einstein will emerge, scientists say. But it may take a long time. After all, more than 200 years separated Einstein from his nearest rival, Isaac Newton. Many physicists say the next Einstein hasn"t been born yet, or is a baby now. That"s because the quest for a unified theory that would account for all the forces of nature has pushed current mathematics to its limits. New math must be created before the problem can be solved.But researchers say there are many other factors working against another Einstein emerging anytime soon.For one thing, physics is a much different field today. In Einstein"s day, there were only a few thousand physicists worldwide, and the theoreticians who could intellectually rival Einstein probably would fit into a streetcar with seats to spare.Education is different, too. One crucial aspect of Einstein"s training that is overlooked is the years of philosophy he read as a teenager—Kant, Schopenhauer and Spinoza, among others. It taught him how to think independently and abstractly about space and time, and it wasn"t long before he became a philosopher himself.The independence created by philosophical insight is—in my opinion—the mark of distinction between a mere artisan or specialist and a real seeker after truth, Einstein wrote in 1944.And he was an accomplished musician. The interplay between music and math is well known. Einstein would furiously play his violin as a way to think through a knotty physics problem. Today, universities have produced millions of physicists. There aren"t many jobs in science for them, so they go to Wall Street and Silicon Valley to apply their analytical skills to more practical—and rewarding—efforts."Maybe there is an Einstein out there today," said Columbia University physicist Brian Greene, "butit would be a lot harder for him to be heard".Especially considering what Einstein was proposing."The actual fabric of space and time curving? My God, what an idea!" Greene said at a recent gathering at the Aspen Institute. "It takes a certain type of person who will bang his head against the wall because you believe you"ll find the solution."Perhaps the best examples are the five scientific papers Einstein wrote in his "miracle year" of 1905. These "thought experiments" were pages of calculations signed and submitted to the prestigious journal Annalen der Physic by a virtual unknown. There were no footnotes or citations. What might happen to such a submission today?"We all get papers like those in the mail," Greene said. "We put them in the junk file."11. What do scientists seem to agree upon, judging from the first two paragraphs?A. Einstein pushed mathematics almost to its limitsB. It will take another Einstein to build a unified theoryC. No physicist is likely to surpass Einstein in the next 200 yearsD. It will be some time before a new Einstein emerges12. What was critical to Einstein"s success?A. His talent as an accomplished musicianB. His independent and abstract thinkingC. His untiring effort to fulfill his potentialD. His solid foundation in math theory13. What does the author tell us about physicists today?A. They tend to neglect training in analytical skillsB. They are very good at solving practical problemsC. They attach great importance to publishing academic papersD. They often go into fields yielding greater financial benefits14. What does Brian Greene imply by saying "... it would be a lot harder for him to be heard" (Para. 9)?A. People have to compete in order to get their papers publishedB. It is hard for a scientist to have his papers published todayC. Papers like Einstein"s would unlikely get published todayD. Nobody will read papers on apparently ridiculous theories15. When he submitted his papers in 1905, Einstein ______.A. forgot to make footnotes and citationsB. was little known in academic circlesC. was known as a young genius in math calculationsD. knew nothing about the format of academic papersI remember meeting him one evening with his pushcart. I had managed to sell all my papers and **ing home in the snow. It was that strange hour in downtown New York when the workers were pouring homeward in the twilight. I marched among thousands of tired men and women whom the factory whistles hadunyoked. They flowed in rivers through the clothing factory districts, then down along the avenues to the East Side.I met my father near Cooper Union. I recognized him, a hunched, frozen figure in an old overcoat standing by a banana cart. He looked so lonely; the tears came to my eyes. Then he saw me, and his face lit with his sad, beautiful smile—Charlie Chaplin s smile."Arch, it"s Mikey," he said. "So you have sold your papers! Come and eat a banana."He offered me one. I refused it. I felt it crucial that my father sell his bananas, not give them away. He thought I was shy, and coaxed and joked with me, and made me eat the banana. It smelled of wet straw and snow."You haven"t sold many bananas today, pop," I said anxiously.He shrugged his shoulders."What can I do? No one seems to want them."It was true. The work crowds pushed home morosely over the pavements. The rusty sky darkened over New York building, the tall street lamps were lit, innumerable trucks, street cars and elevated trains clattered by. Nobody and nothing in the great city stopped for my father"s bananas."I ought to yell," said my father dolefully "I ought to make a big noise like other peddlers, but it makes my throat sore. Anyway, I"m ashamed of yelling, it makes me feel like a fool."I had eaten one of his bananas. My sick conscience told me that I ought to pay for it somehow. I must remain here and help my father."I"ll yell for you, pop" I volunteered."Arch, no" he said, "go home; you have worked enough today. Just tell momma I"ll be late."But I yelled and yelled. My father, standing by, spoke occasional words of praise, and said I was awonderful yeller. Nobody else paid attention. The workers drifted past us wearily, endlessly; a defeated army wrapped in dreams of home. Elevated trains crashed ; the Cooper Union clock burned above us; the sky grew black, the wind poured, the slush burned through our shoes. There were thousands of strange, silent figures pouring over the sidewalks in snow. None of them stopped to buy bananas. I yelled and yelled. Nobody listened.My father tried to stop me at last. "Nu," he said smiling to console me, "that was wonderful yelling, Mikey. But it"s plain we are unlucky today! Let"s go home."I was frantic, and almost in tears. I insisted on keeping up my desperate yells. But at last my father persuaded me to leave with him.16. The word "unyoked" in the first paragraph is closest in meaning to ______.A. sent outB. releasedC. dispatchedD. removed17. Which of the following in the first paragraph does NOT indicate crowds of people?A. Thousands ofB. FlowedC. PouringD. Unyoked18. Which of the following is intended to be a pair of contrast in the passage?A. Huge crowds and lonely individualsB. Weather conditions and street lampsC. Clattering trains and peddlers" yellsD. Moving crowds and street traffic19. Which of the following words is NOT suitable to describe the character of the son?A. CompassionateB. ResponsibleC. ShyD. Determined20. What is the theme of the story?A. The misery of the factory workersB. How to survive in a harsh environmentC. Generation gap between the father and the sonD. Love between the father and the sonThe Working Time Regulations (WTRs) introduced a new right to paid holidays for most workers. However, some workers were not covered when the WTRs came into force in October 1998. Since the regulations were amended, with effect from 1 August 2003, the majority of these workers have been entitled to paid holidays, and since 1 August 2004 the regulations have also applied to junior doctors.Workers who qualify are entitled to no fewer than four weeks of paid holiday a year, and public holidays (normally eight days in England and Wales) count towards this. However. workers and employers can agree longer holidays.For the first year of work, special accrual rules apply. For each month of employment, workers are entitled to one twelfth of the annual holiday. After the first year of employment, you can take your holiday entitlement at any time, with your employer"s approval.Before taking holidays, you must give your employer notice of at least twice the length of the holiday you want to take: for instance, to take a five-day holiday, you must give at least ten days" notice. If your employer does not want you to take that holiday, they can give you counter-notice equal to the holiday, for example, five days" notice not to take a five-day holiday.If the employer wants you to take holiday at a given time, e. g. when there is a shutdown at thesame time every year, they must give you notice of at least twice the length of the holiday. There is no right for the worker to take that holiday at a different time.Holiday cannot be carried over to the next year, unless your contract of employment allows this to happen. Nor can you be paid in lieu of your holiday. However, when you leave the job, you are entitled to receive payment for any outstanding holiday, provided your contract specifically allows for this.It may be that your contract gives you better rights, or your holiday rights might be specified in a collective agreement. Your union representative can advise you on this.Answer the following questions, using NO MORE THAN THREE WORDS AND/OR A NUMBER from the passage.21. In what year were the regulations extended to cover most of the workers who were originally excluded?22. What is the minimum annual paid holiday which workers are entitled to?23. During a worker"s first year of employment, what proportion of their annual holiday does a month"s work give?24. What can an employer give a worker to stop them taking holiday that they have requested?25. What is given as a possible reason for an employee having to take a holiday at a certain time?Part Ⅲ WritingWhile some people claim that a person"s essential qualities are inherited at birth, others hold that the circumstances in which a person grows up are mainly responsible for the type of person he/ she later becomes. What do you think of this? Write an essay of about 400 words on the following topic:1. Essential Qualities: Inherited or Not?In the first part of your essay you should state clearly your main argument, and in the second part you should support your argument with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or make a summary.Marks will, be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.Write your essay on the ANSWER SHEET.。

Authentic technological wonders that have made any place in the world to be always close with regard to distances and communications and have not been capable of bringing wellbeing for everybody, but only for a meager 15% living in the countries of the North. The abysm between North and South is now so huge, that the unsustainability of the current economic order and the blindness of the people who try to justify continuing to enjoy opulence and waste, are evident.The great possibilities that a globalization of solidarity and true cooperation could bring to all people in the world through the scientific-technical wonders, have been reduced by the neo-liberal model to this grotesque caricature full of exploitation and social injustice. We were asked to be ultraliberal in trade and to lift any barrier, which may obstruct the imports coming from the North, but the oral champions of free trade actually are the champions in the praxis of protectionism. The North spends 1 billion dollars a day in practicing what has been banned from doing, that is, subsidizing inefficient products. Today, vis-á-vis the obvious failure of neoliberalism and the great threat that the International Economic Order represents for the south, it is necessary to retake the Spirit of the South by forming an alliance among ourselves.(分数:30.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________32.After months of speculation, the final 22,000-character overview of China"s "third plenum" was published on November 15th. In the economic sphere the document turned out to be bolder than the initial summary suggested, but the document"s interest lies not just in the economic reforms, which were anticipated. More striking were some of thesocial changes the document announced, such as the relaxation of the one-child policy. A couple in which one parent is an only child will be allowed to have two children, and the policy is likely to be loosened even further. In another widely welcomed move, labor camps are to be abolished.But possibly the most important announcements were buried deep in the document and grabbed fewer headlines. Two moves in particular, namely allowing the development of "social organizations" or NGOs in essence and the separation of judicial jurisdiction systems from administrative areas, showed that the party is sensitive to the ferment in Chinese society and the demands for greater liberty and accountability that accompany it.In the past 30 years China has gone from a totalitarian society to one in which people can usually work where they want, marry whom they want, travel where they want (albeit with varying degrees of hassle for those from the countryside and ethnic-minority regions). In ten years internet penetration has gone from minimal to almost universal. Old welfare structures have broken down, with little to take their place. Ordinary people are being empowered by new wealth and participation, through microblogs, and by becoming consumers and property owners. Change is bubbling up from the bottom and the system cannot contain it. That these two gestures towards reform were mentioned at all is encouraging, and the world is keen to know whether Chinese leadership will honor their words in the plenary document that they "Dare to gnaw through even tough bones, dare to ford dangerous rapids, break through the fetters of ideological concepts with even greater resolution."(分数:30.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________四、Ⅳ(总题数:2,分数:60.00)33.近年来,海淀区围绕高新技术产业的技术创新和公共科技服务需求,加速各种创新要素的聚集,不断完善科技服务业,基本形成了研发设计、成果转移转化、创新创业、科技金融和科技咨询等科技服务业的完整链条,有效促进了科技成果的转化和产业化。

As one example, the aircraft benefits from a higher proportion of carbon-fibre composite than any previous Airbus aircraft, around 22% compared with 12% for an A340-600 or 9% on a 777. For the first time, this technology has been applied to major components such as the centre-wing box. The information and data management requirements for an aircraft as large as the A380 also have placed demands on system design. These have been met in two ways.The aircraft"s system uses 22 computers of 7 different varieties that share all the functions traditionally handled by individual "black boxes". Data exchange in the system utilizes a high capacity and high speed datalink with data exchange at a rate of 10 million bits per second, 100 times the capacity of a traditional avionics system.(分数:30.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:()解析:在很多方面,A380经验证的技术都将成为下一代飞机的标准。

USAIDPartⅡ Passage Translatron (120 points)Section One: Translate the following English passage into Chinese. Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points).Global financial stability has improved over the past six months, bolstered by better macroeconomic performance and continued accommodative macroeconomic policies, but fragilities remain. The two-speed recovery-modest in advanced economies and robust in emerging market economies-has posed different policy challenges for countries. In advanced economies hit hardest by the crisis, governments and households remain heavily indebted, to varying degrees, and the health of financial institutions has not recovered in tandem with the overall economy. Emerging market economies are facing new challenges associated with strong domestic demand, rapid credit growth, relatively accommodative macroeconomic policies, and large capital infl.ows. Geopolitical riskscould also threaten the economic and financial outlook, with oil prices increasing sharply amid fears of supply disruptions in the Middle East and North Africa.The main task facing policymakers in advanced economies is to shift the balance of policies away from reliance on macroeconomic ar,d liquidity support to more structural policies-less "leaning" and more "cleaning of the financial system. This vnll entail reducing leverage and restoring market discipline, while avoiding financial or economic disruption during the transition. Thus, ongoing policy efforts to withdraw (implicit) public guarantees and ensure bondholder liability for future losses must build on more rapid progress toward stronger bank balance sheets, ensuring medium-term fiscal sustainability and addressing excessive debt burdens in the private sector.For policymakers in emerging market economies, the task is to limit overheating and a buildup of vulnerabilities- to avoid "cleaning" later. Emerging market economies have continued to benefit from strong growth relative to that in advanced economies, accompanied by increasing portfolio capital inflows. This is putting pressure on some financial markets, contributing to higher leverage, potential asset price bubbles, and inflationary pressures. Policymakers will have to pay increasing attention to containing the buildup of macro-financial risks to avoid future problems that could inhibit their growth and damage financial stability. In a number of cases, this will entail a tighter macroeconomic policy stance, and, when needed, the use of macro-prudential tools to ensure financial stability. Increasing the financial sector's capacity to absorb higher flows through efforts to broaden and deepen local capital markets will also help.Section Two: Translate the following Chinese passage into English. Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET (60 points).中意两国都是拥有悠久历史和灿烂文化的文明古国。

(总题数:1,分数:60.00)31.It is a true story which happened during World War II in a certain state in the east of the U.S.A.One day a young man named Jim received an enlistment notice in which he was told to undergo the physical examination the next day. To Jim it seemed like a bolt from the blue. He was troubled so much that he couldn"t get to sleep all the night. In all fairness, Jim wasn"t a coward and he hated the Fascists deeply. But he wouldn"t join the army. Why? It was all because he was in love with a beautiful girl and he would not be separated from his girl friend. "If I could finda way to make the doctors believe there are some defects in my body," he thought, "I would avoid being sent to serve in the army. But how? ..." He thought and thought. Suddenly to his great joy, a good idea crossed his mind.The next morning Jim got to the hospital on time. He was led into a large room where he found an aged medical officer sitting behind a large writing-desk, busy looking through the sheets of paper carefully. "It must be the chief doctor," to himself Jim thought, "and I"d best try not to be paid attention to by that old fellow." With the thought, he hurriedly found a seat to sit down on and took out an out-of-age newspaper, pretending to read it.Not long before that, Jim heard his name called. He knew it was his turn to be examined. When Jim came up to the doctor, the old man raised his head slowly from his papers and took a quick and sharp look at him, then in a whisper he ordered Jim to put his newspaper on the table and take off his clothes at once. Of course, Jim had to do what he was wanted to. After that, he was told to go straight to a corner and sit down on a chair there. But to Jim"s great surprise, no sooner had he seated himself on the chair than he heard the doctor murmuring to his assistants: "Finished! That lad is quite up to the standard.""How can you draw such a conclusion like that before you give me a careful check? It"s too rash!" Still on the chair, Jim shouted at the doctor. "Don"t be impetuous, young man! Get off and put on your clothes, and then I"ll explain it to you." the doctor said calmly.And when Jim stood before the old man, the doctor held out his hand and gave a pat on his broad shoulder. A smile on his face, he said to Jim in kind voice: "My boy, you said we didn"t examine you carefully, didn"t you? But I don"t think it necessary for us to do that. You might be puzzled about this. Now let me tell you how and why." A pause to take a breath, he went on: "When I whispered to you to put down the newspaper and take off your clothes, you did it as I told you. It shows you have good ears. And then when you were asked to go and sit on the chair in that corner, you did it, too. It shows you can see any object within a certain distance. So you are not nearsighted at all. Besides, you were found reading the newspaper just now, and we are certain you are a man of intelligence. In a word, we make no doubt that you are perfect in mind and body. Now I"m glad to say you"ve passed the physical examination, that is to say you"ll be a glorious soldier. Congratulations!"With those words the medical officer stretched out both hands to Jim, and Jim could do nothing but hold them in his own. "I wish you to be a good fighter and fight for the justice and freedom of human beings!" said the old man in an inspiring voice. And Jim was so moved that his eyes were full of tears.Half a year later, Jim was killed in the European battlefield. At this news his girl friend nearly went mad. She dashed down to the shore and stood there, looking out to the boundless ocean. She kept weeping, while calling her lover"s name. "Don"t be like that, my dear." It was an old man"s trembling voice. "Your Jim died a real man. He devoted his life to the people all over the world. It is right that we should be proud of him..." Saving this, the old man, her father, was choked. His only regret was that he had never had Jim know who he was. This old man was no other than the medical officer who had given Jim the health check.(分数:60.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:()解析:还没多长时间,吉姆就听到有人喊他的名字。

Her figure was stunning, with generous, firm, young breasts, a small waist, rounded hips and long shapelylegs, with delicate ankles. Her voice was distinctive, soft and mellifluous. There was a strong, smoldering sensuality about Noelle, but that was not her magic. Her magic lay in the fact that beneath the sensuality seemed to lie an untouched island of innocence, and the combination was irresistible. She could not walk down the streets without receiving propositions from passersby. They were not the casual offers that the prostitutes of Marseille received as their daily currency, for even the most obtuse men perceived something special in Noelle, something that they had never seen before and perhaps would never see again, and each was willing to pay as much as he could afford to try to make it a part of himself, however briefly.(分数:30.00)__________________________________________________________________________________________正确答案:()解析:诺艾丽十七岁时,早先便有的那种美丽就更加显得出类拔萃。

Not true. Skin is important (the cosmetics industry proves that). But so is what lies under it. In particular, the shape of people’s faces, determined by their bone structure, contributes enormously to how beautiful they are. And, since the ultimate point of beauty is to signal who is a good prospect as a mate,what makes a face beautiful is not only an aesthetic matter but also a biological one. How those bone structures arise, and how they communicate desirable traits, are big evolutionary questions.Until now, experiments to try to determine the biological basis of beauty have been of the please-look-at-these-photographs-and-answer-some-questions variety. Some useful and not necessarily obvious results have emerged, such as that one determinant of beauty is facial symmetry.But what would really help is a breeding experiment which allowed the shapes of faces to be followed across the generations to see how those shapes relate to variations in things that might be desirable in a mate. These might include fertility, fecundity, social status, present health, and likely resistance to future infection and infestation. Correlations between many of these phenomena and attributes of the body-beautiful have, indeed, been established. But in a pair-forming, highly social species such as Homo sapiens, you also have to live with your co-child-raiser or, at least, collaborate with him or her. So other things may be important in a mate, too, such as an even temper and a friendly outlook.It would be impossible to do such a breeding experiment on people, of course. But as Irene Elia, a biological anthropologist at Cambridge,realised, it has in fact been done, for the past five decades, on a different species of animal. Dr Elia has published her analysis of this experiment in the Quarterly Review of Biology. The animals in question are foxes.三.中译英中国将继续高举和平、发展、合作、共赢的旗帜,坚定不移致力于维护世界和平、促进共同发展。

The day may come when the dollar,too,succumbs to a rival.But today is not that day.(原文出自世界经济论坛Will the dollar lose its dominance?育明教育整理)参考译文:1976年以来,美元作为国际货币的角色一直在缓慢减弱。

The latest shows a dreaming man, some Korean script and a video of rockets flying through space while fires burn in skyscrapers and a pianist plays "We Are the World" at dirge tempo. Is this a harmless fantasy? A thrown-down gauntlet? Should the west respond with a statement? Should it post a video of its own? It is hard to know. Our traditional media are being "replaced" by the internet. But the "information" coming out of the information economy is often hard to decipher, and composed for purposes that are hard to discern.The film academic Stephen Apkon argues in The Age of the Image , published this week, that itis possible to speak of a new kind of literacy, one built on figuring out such non-verbal messages. At its humblest level, his book is about the "language"" of film, but Mr Apkon has a larger philosophical point, too. Our culture is growing more global. While it still relies on words, they are increasingly wrapped up with images, and it is the images people remember. Elizabeth Daley, dean of the University of Southern California"s School of Cinematic Arts, believes writing today is like Latin on the eve of the Renaissance-the language of a scholarly establishment. YouTube clips and other visuals are the equivalent of vernacular Italian. They are the street language, and the medium for much new and creative thinking.Images have always mattered in public arguments more than we admit. Few people cared that Richard Nixon won the 1960 presidential debates against John Kennedy, so unkempt did the Republican look. Mr Apkon quotes a neuroscientist who says people are so attuned to picking up subtle signals that they make decisions about whether they like or dislike politicians "immediately". And unsubtle, non-verbal messages with a great emotional wallop can now be broadcast more widely. Video of the shooting of Neda Agha-Sohan, captured during June 2009 protests against irregular Iranian elections, spread round the world. In the gut-wrenching Kony 2012 video (100m views in six days), American activists sought to enlist the US military in a manhunt for a Ugandan warlord. Eyesight is the most trusted sense, Mr. Apkon notes, and that means we need to be careful with it. There is a standing danger that the public will grow so upset by images of mistreatment that it will demand the government send the army off to war. This is arguably what happened Somalia in 1992, with America"s poorly planned military response to the African country"s famine. In future, Mr. Apkon says, we are likely to need "a combination of scepticism and incisiveness", enabling citizens to "[critique ] what is put in front of them with some level of sophistication". That is unlikely. When the passions provoked by visual imagery lead to the same conclusion as the logic of a verbal argument, people are generally comfortable coming to a decision. But when passion and logic are at odds, one of them must be favoured.Until recently, it was the essence of statesmanship, scholarship and justice to purge strong emotion from our deliberations. Images today, though, are so plentiful and sharp that they dominate our thought processes. Although Mr. Apkon relishes the immediacy of YouTube, he fears that political advertisers will soon be able to craft stories around "hidden mental hungers", easily manipulating voters.Citizens tend to think about voting in one of two ways. First, you base your vote on your identity. You are a farmer, so you choose the candidate best disposed towards farmers. The second theory is that you vote on arguments, independent of identity. You believe a sales tax should replace income tax, so you vote for the candidate who shares that opinion. But today"s image-based communication has little to do with identity or arguments. It has to do with thelowest-common-denominator traits that mark you as a human animal.There is no obvious solution. Even if we acquire the scepticism Mr. Apkon speaks of, certain institutions "go with" certain styles of perceiving, absorbing and interpreting information. You would not think that there was anything "Protestant" about the printing press. And yet the press seems to have been a prerequisite for Protestantism"s rise. Likewise, our own democracies, imperfect though they may be, are the culmination of the culture of the written word. Mr. Apkon notes how Kennedy, in those 1960 debates, "tapped into a lever in the psyche more primal than mere facts".In retrospect, that was an ominous moment. Once you find that lever, isn"t democracy bound to lose a bit of its appeal, rather like a detective story in which you have been told the ending?(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following is INCORRECT according to the author?(分数:2.00)A.Images do not always matter in public arguments more than we admitB.Videos on political issues are the most popular among allC.Videos carrying messages with a great emotional wallop can attract attentionD.Activists must use street language to appeal to the audience(2).What does the author mean by saying "writing today is like Latin on the eve of the Renaissance —the language of a scholarly establishment?"(分数:2.00)A.Videos are like Italian that served as the street languageB.A video is worth more than a thousand words"C.Writing would face extinction, just as LatinD.Writing would be less popular among common people(3).What is the author"s attitude towards "seeing is believing?"(分数:2.00)A.PositiveB.DangerousC.Negativeeful(4).According to the author, what may "image-based communication" influence voter"s behavior?(分数:2.00)A.People might vote on their identitiesB.People might vote on their "hidden mental hungers"C.People might vote on arguments, independent of identityD.People might vote on political advertisers who have better stories(5).Which of the following constitutes the best title for this passage?(分数:2.00)A.In the unthinking age, seeing is believingB.Images matter less today than in the pastC.Democracy has lost its appeal nowadaysD.Images in the Information AgeOne November evening in 1989 I was loafing in my room at university when a friend began thumping on the door. "What is it?" I shouted irritably. "The Berlin Wall just fell," he shouted back For months afterwards I walked around in a daze of wonder, as crowds ransacked secret-police headquarters and Nelson Mandela walked out of jail. Two lines from Wordsworth about the French Revolution, which I"d read in some article about the1989 revolutions, kept going through my mind: Bliss was it in that dawn to be alive,But to be young was very heaven!It was the most optimistic political moment I"ve lived through, my generation"s version of 1945 or 1968. 6 .Now we"re at the peak of political pessimism. The political year is opening with almost nobody on either right or left expecting anything good. The great questions seem to be: how will an intervention in Syria go wrong? And will the US House of Representatives vote to repeal "Obamacare" for the 41st time? 7 The utopian urge persists; it has just migrated from politics to technology. Instead of developing a political policy to solve a problem, people now develop an app.In politics, you can hardly count all the lights that have failed since the invasion of Iraq a decade ago. Faith in unregulated capitalism died with Lehman Brothers. Then Barack Obama, the Occupy movements and the Tea Party all rapidly disappointed their followers. In 2009 in Copenhagen, it became clear the world wouldn"t agree to combat climate change. Now the Arab spring is eating its own children, the Russian demonstrators have gone home, and hardly anyone believes in the European project any more. 8 , even before its intellectual underpinning was revealed as an academic paper whose authors had accidentally left important bits of data off their spreadsheet. The western liberating impulse-previously directed at Iraq, Iran and Cuba-has died too. Myanmar finally opened up, and ethnic conflict promptly began. Even people who believed in al-Qaeda are now presumably disillusioned.It"s hard to find a self-proclaimed political messiah anywhere: Hugo Chavez is dead, and FidelCastro himself says Cuba"s revolution has failed. Politicians have been reduced to celebrities who can gain our attention only with Anthony Weineresque private antics. 9 Meanwhile a rash of TV series like House of Cards, Veep and The Thick of It portray politics as a greedy, narcissistic pursuit. No wonder political parties are shedding members at record speed. The last emotion that still animates tots of western voters is rage at immigrants-an archetypal expression of pessimism. Andrew Adonis, leading thinker of the UK"s Labour party, says : "We"re in one of those periods like the 1970s where politicians manifestly don"t have the answers. "But meanwhile a group of people has stood up who do claim to have answers: technologists. In 2007, just as western economies began to crumble, Apple launched the iPhone. 10 The latter took time to decide how to use their new might. Nicole Boyer, director of the Adaptive Edge consultancy in San Francisco, explains: "Tech was late to the game for social problems. It took a generation of tech entrepreneurs to make money and then say, "OK, what are we going to do?" Now they are busy remaking the world: Google"s Erie Schmidt negotiates with North Korea, Jeff Bezos tries to save newspapers, Mark Zuckerberg plots to get the world"s poor online and Bill Gates fights infectious disease. "They have something of the white knight about them," muses Adonis. "There is a profound tech-optimism."In this budding tech-utopia, government scarcely features. Great technological achievements of the past—the atomic bomb, the moon landing and even the internet—began within the US government. Today, whether people like government or loathe it, they mostly ignore it.A. Austerity became the latest light to failB. Since then, credibility has kept leaching from politicians to techiesC. Strangely, it actually turned out pretty wellD. But hope springs eternalE. Mandela on his deathbed still towers over today"s lot(分数:10.00)Where do pesticides fit into the picture of environmental disease? We have seen that they now pollute soil, water, and food, that they have the power to make our streams fishless and our gardens and woodlands silent and birdless. Man, however much he may contrary, is part of nature. Can he escape a pollution that is now so thoroughly distributed throughout our world?We know that even single exposures to these chemicals, if the amount is large enough, can cause extremely severe poisoning. But this is not the major problem. The sudden illness or death of farmers, farm workers, and others exposed to sufficient quantities of pesticides are very sad and should not occur. For the population as a whole, we must be more concerned with the delayed effects of absorbing small amounts of the pesticides that invisibly pollute our world. Responsible public health officials have pointed out that the biological effects of chemicals are cumulative over long periods of time, and that the danger to the individual may depend on the sum of the exposures received throughout his lifetime. For these very reasons the danger is easily ignored. It is human nature to shake off what may seem to us a threat of future disaster. "Men are naturally most impressed by diseases which have obvious signs," says a wise physician, Dr. Rene Dubos, "yet some of their worst enemies slowly approach them unnoticed."(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following is closest in meaning to the sentence "Man is part of nature." (Para.1)?(分数:2.00)A.Man appears indifferent to what happens in natureB.Man acts as if he does not belong to natureC.Man can avoid the effects of environmental pollutionD.Man can escape his responsibilities for environmental protection(2).What is the author"s attitude towards the environmental effects of pesticides?(分数:2.00)A.PessimisticB.IndifferentC.DefensiveD.Concerned(3).In the author"s view, the sudden death caused by exposure to large amounts of pesticides ______.(分数:2.00)A.is not the worst of the negative consequences resulting from the use of pesticidesB.now occurs most frequently among all accidental deathsC.has sharply increased so as to become the center of public attentionD.is unavoidable because people can"t do without pesticides in farming(4).People tend to ignore the delayed effects of exposure to chemicals because ______.(分数:2.00)A.limited exposure to them does little harm to people"s healthB.the present is more important for them than the futureC.the danger does not become apparent immediatelyD.humans are capable of withstanding small amounts of poisoning(5).It can be concluded from Dr. Dubos" remarks that ______.(分数:2.00)A.people find invisible diseases difficult to deal withB.attacks by hidden enemies tend to be fatalC.diseases with obvious signs are easy to cureD.people tend to overlook hidden dangers caused by pesticidesSince 2011, when Stanford University launched its first "massive open online courses", these free, internet-enabled programmes have cropped up everywhere, engaging millions of users. The largest Mooc providers-Coursera, Udemy, Udacity, and EdX-offer free tuition, supplied by universities, often to hundreds of thousands of students at a time. But just a year after Moocs really started taking off, offering the promise of real disruption to the centuries-old higher-education business, user growth has started to slow.Until May this year, visitors to Moocs were increasing rapidly. But since then the picture has become markedly less rosy. Over the past quarter the major Mooc providers in the US have seen stagnation or slowing growth in visitor numbers. The "summer slump" across the education sector might normally explain this kind of drop. However, this comes even as the major platforms have supplemented their offerings with more new courses and high-profile partner universities. The decline, however, has not been universal, and exceptions to the trend may offer hints about how the market for Moocs could develop. Available data on visits to the major Mooc sites between November 2012 and August 2013 indicate that visits from India have doubled over the past nine months. India still has only about a third the number of Mooc users as the US. But that still makes it the largest market for Moocs outside America, even though it has only a fraction of the broadband penetration. As a largely English-speaking country, India illustrates how Moocs might develop in emerging markets if more content was available in Vietnamese, Mandarin, Indonesian or Portuguese.Furthermore, Indian Mooc users include a higher proportion of younger people, even controlling for India"s large youth population: more than 80 percent of Indian visitors to Mooc sites are under 34, while US and European visitors are fairly evenly spread across age groups. Indians also spend roughly five times as long as average visitors on Mooc sites.Why India? It may be because India has the largest population of university-age students in the world (94m and growing), while higher education in India is inadequate in quantity and quality due to poor government regulation and corruption. With 17m students in higher education, India has one of the world"s lowest higher-education enrollment ratios, even among developing nations. Young Indians" enthusiasm for Moocs shows that there is an appetite for higher education, with or without sufficient supply of physical seats. But what is surprising is that Indians should be so motivated to visit Moocs when they are not yet accredited. You still cannot get a qualification from a Mooc. So are Moocs only aspirational for young Indians-the equivalent offlipping through a glossy university catalogue-or could they, in combination with targeted assessments, deliver tangible benefits to students and reap a return in exchange for outcomes delivered?Many Mooc providers are already bundling courses into "packages" that roughly correspond to short certificated programmes. Universities still fear offering Mooc degrees, which could cannibalise fee-paying courses. But that will not stop ambitious education providers in emerging markets such as India offering real-world qualifications.So Moocs could indeed be a disruptive development in emerging markets-where the majority of the world"s youth reside. India lacks higher-education places but foreign universities face barriers to entry. So why not tap the Indian market through Moocs in combination with targeted assessments? While it is unlikely that Moocs will dramatically change the economics of going to college for an American teenager, Moocs could be transformative in markets where there is not enough capacity to meet demand for university education. Just as some developing countries have bypassedfixed-line telephony for mobile solutions, Moocs could help developing countries to leapfrog the bricks-and-mortar model of higher education. And universities might be able to do well from them: for higher education, the fortune may indeed be at the bottom of the pyramid.(分数:10.00)(1).Which of the following is TRUE about MOOC?(分数:2.00)A.Mooc was first launched by Havard UniversityB.High-profile universities are not interesteder number is growing rapidly especially in USD.India now ranks the second in terms of the MOOC market(2).Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the author?(分数:2.00)A.India"s internet penetration is quite highB.India is a largely English-speaking countryC.India has a huge supply and demand problem of educationD.India"s higher education system is poorly developed(3).What is the biggest bottleneck of MOOC?(分数:2.00)A.It lacks enough funding since it"s freeB.It cannot provide qualificationsC.Universities would not offer high-profile coursesD.It stops expanding in the developed world(4).Which of the following is NOT MENTIONED according to the passage?(分数:2.00)A.Provide courses in Chinese and other languages as wellB.Try to combine courses with targeted assessmentsC.Develop courses on mobile platformsD.Bypass bricks-and-mortar schools(5).Which of the following might be the best title for this passage?(分数:2.00)A.Mooc witnesses its fastest development in the past several yearsB.Moocs might matter even more in emerging marketsC.Mooc will be better developed if it uses the global language of EnglishD.Mooc will take the place of traditional courses offered in the universities very soon五、Part Ⅲ Writing(总题数:1,分数:30.00)31.Write a report of 300-350 words in English, describing, comparing and analyzing the situation of the global economy between 2008 and 2012, and forecast for 2013-2014, by IMF and QNB Group.

1.“War is a mere continuation of politics by other means,”Prussian theorist Karl Von Clausewitz wrote.Today,banking—broadly defined as lending and borrowing money through institutions and bond markets—is a continuation of politics,or war,by other means.In the20th century, Germany wielded power over European neighbors through brute military force.In the21st century,Germany,abetted by France,uses its influence with the European Central Bank and the European Union to dictate terms to Greece and other weak nations.And the effort to halt Iran’s march to nuclear prominence relies as much on the international banking’system’s willingness and ability to enforce financial sanctions as it does on the threat of bombs.2.Its foreign policy is becoming not so much Islamic as Ottoman, reestablishing a sphere of influence it had for400years.Abdullah Gϋl, Turkey’s sophisticated president,explains that while Turkey remains resolutely a part of the West,it is increasingly influential in the Middle East,Central Asia,and beyond.”Turkey is becoming a source of inspiration for other countries in the region,”he said to me while in New York last week.3.It is impossible to emphasize too strongly the necessity for forming correct habits in flying straight and level.All other flight maneuvers are in essence a deviation from this fundamental flight maneuver.Many flight instructors and students are prone to believe that perfection in straight-and-level flight will come of itself,but such is not the ease.It is not uncommon to find a pilot whose basic flying ability consistently falls just short of minimum expected standards,and upon analyzing the reasons for the shortcomings to discover that the cause is the inability to fly straight and level property.Straight-and-level flight is flight in which a constant heading and altitude are maintained. It is accomplished by making immediate and measured corrections for deviations in direction and altitude form unintentional slight turns, descents,and climbs.第四部分:汉译英(本题共60分,每段20分)。

Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET(60points).Global financial stability has improved over the past six months,bolstered by better macroeconomic performance and continued accommodative macroeconomic policies,but fragilities remain.The two-speedrecovery-modest in advanced economies and robust in emerging market economies-has posed different policy challenges for countries.In advanced economies hit hardest by the crisis,governments and households remain heavily indebted,to varying degrees,and the health of financial institutions has not recovered in tandem with the overall economy.Emerging market economies are facing new challenges associated with strong domestic demand,rapid credit growth,relatively accommodative macroeconomic policies,and large capital infl.ows.Geopolitical risks could also threaten the economic and financial outlook,with oil prices increasing sharply amid fears of supply disruptions in the Middle East and North Africa.The main task facing policymakers in advanced economies is to shift the balance of policies away from reliance on macroeconomic ar,d liquidity support to more structural policies-less“leaning”and more“cleaning of the financial system.This vnll entail reducing leverage and restoring market discipline,while avoiding financial or economic disruption during the transition.Thus,ongoing policy efforts to withdraw(implicit)public guarantees and ensure bondholder liability for future losses must build on more rapid progress toward stronger bank balance sheets,ensuring medium -term fiscal sustainability and addressing excessive debt burdens in the private sector.For policymakers in emerging market economies,the task is to limit overheating and a buildup of vulnerabilities-to avoid“cleaning”later. Emerging market economies have continued to benefit from strong growth relative to that in advanced economies,accompanied by increasing portfolio capital inflows.This is putting pressure on some financial markets, contributing to higher leverage,potential asset price bubbles,and inflationary pressures.Policymakers will have to pay increasing attention to containing the buildup of macro-financial risks to avoid future problems that could inhibit their growth and damage financial stability.In a number ofcases,this will entail a tighter macroeconomic policy stance,and,whenneeded,the use of macro-prudential tools to ensure financial stability.Increasing the financial sector’s capacity to absorb higher flows throughefforts to broaden and deepen local capital markets will also help.Section Two:Translate the following Chinese passageinto English.Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET(60points).中意两国都是拥有悠久历史和灿烂文化的文明古国。

2014年北京科技大学翻译硕士英语笔译考研真题及答案

2014年北京科技大学翻译硕士英语笔译考研真题及答案
在对学校的认识上,需要注意如下几点: (一)批次划分仅与招考院校申报翻译硕士专业项目、教育部高等教育司翻译硕士专业学位(MTI) 教育指导委员会审批先后顺序有关,与院校翻译硕士师资实力无直接关系。第二、三批院校在第一 批试点院校积累的丰富经验上开设翻译硕士专业,往往具有更大的优势,因此同学们在选择招考院 校时,不要将批次作为唯一的参考项。 (二)根据我国高等国民教育序列划分和 158 所翻译硕士招考院校实际,可将翻译硕士招考院校 分为综合类、专门类两大类,综合类下设大综合(国家级院校、省(自治区、直辖市)院校、市级院校), 小综合(师范类院校、民族类院校);专门类下设文史大类(语言类、外交类、政法类院校),理工大类(理 工类、科技类、财经类、交通类、工业类、石油地质类、海事类、航空航天类、农林类、电力类、 科研院所类)。 同学们在选择招考院校时要注意区分不同类别的院校在翻译硕士招考模式、考试题型及内容等 的区别,并结合自身兴趣、特长与应试能力实际,综合选取合适的招考院校。 (三)从 2007 年 9 月翻译硕士专业学位设立至今的招考情况看,不同类别的招考院校在招考模 式、考试题型及内容上有一定区别。根据对 2011 年 37 所翻译硕士招考院校考试类型的统计发现, 理工大类院校考试内容涉及理工内容,文史大类院校则偏重文史内容,各专门院校考试内容更有专 业性趋向。总体上看,专业特色还是十分明显的。

Nothing is more futile and more self-defeating than thebitterness of spurned love, the vengeful feeling that someone else has “comebetween” oneself and a beloved. This is always a distortion of reality, forpeople are not the captives or victims of others---they are free agents,working out their own destinies for good or for ill.
We tend to treat persons like goods. We even speak of thechildren “belonging” to their parents. But nobody “belongs” to anyone else. Eachperson belongs to himself, and to God. Children are entrusted to their parents,and if their parents do not treat them properly, the state has a right toremove them from their parents' trusteeship.
When a husband or wife is “stolen” by another person, thathusband or wife was already ripe for the stealing, was already predisposedtoward a new partner. The “love bandit” was only taking what was waiting to betaken, what wanted to be taken.
On the surface, many marriages seem to break up because of a“third party”. This is, however, a psychological illusion. Theother woman orthe other man merely serves as a pretext for dissolving or a marriage that hadalready lost its essential integrity.

This is a prevalent misconception in many people'sminds---that love, like merchandise, can be“stolen”。Numerous states, in fact,have enacted laws allowing damages for“alienation of affections”。
Most of us, when young, had the experience of a sweetheartbeing taken from us by somebody more attractive and more appealing. At thetime, we may have resented this intruder---but as we grew older, we recognizedthat the sweetheart had never been ours to begin with. It was not the intruderthat “caused” the break, but the lack of a real relationship.
But the rejected lover or mate cannot afford to believe thathis beloved has freely turned away from him--- and so he ascribes sinister ormagical properties to the interloper. He calls him a hypnotist or a thief or ahome-breaker. In the vast majority of cases, however, when a home is broken,the breaking has begun long before any “third party” has appeared on the scene.
