Reading comprehension (40')Section 1 Multiple choice (20')Directions: In this section there are reading passages followed by multiple-choice questions. Read the passages and then mark your answers on your answer sheet. Passage A The Welsh language has always been the ultimate marker of Welsh identity, but a generation ago it looked as if Welsh would go the way of Manx, once widely spoken on the Isle of Man but now extinct. Government financing and central planning, however, have helped reverse the decline of Welsh. Road signs and official public documents are written in both Welsh and English, and schoolchildren are required to learn both languages. Welsh is now one of the most successful of Europe's regional languages, spoken by more than a half-million of the country's three million people. The revival of the language, particularly among young people, is part of a resurgence of national identity sweeping through this small, proud nation. Last month Wales marked the second anniversary of the opening of the National Assembly, the first parliament to be convened here since 1404. The idea behind devolution was to restore the balance within the union of nations making up the United Kingdom. With most ofthe people and wealth, England has always had bragging rights. The partial transfer of legislative powers from Westminster, implemented by Tony Blair, was designed to give the other members of the club - Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales - a bigger say and to counter centrifugal forces that seemed to threaten the very idea of the union.The Welsh showed little enthusiasm for devolution. Whereas the Scots voted overwhelmingly for a parliament, the vote for a Welsh assembly scraped through by less than one percent on a turnout of less than 25 percent. Its powers wereproportionately limited. The Assembly can decide how money from Westminster or the European Union is spent. It cannot, unlike its counterpart in Edinburgh, enact laws. But now that it is here, the Welsh are growing to like their Assembly. Many people would like it to have more powers. Its importance as figurehead will grow with the opening in 2003, of a new debating chamber, one of many new buildings that are transforming Cardiff from a decaying seaport into a Baltimore-style waterfront city. Meanwhile a grant of nearly two million dollars from the European Union will tackle poverty. Wales is one of the poorest regions in Western Europe - only Spain, Portugal, and Greece have a lower standard of living.Newspapers and magazines are filled with stories about great Welsh men and women, boosting self-esteem. T o familiar faces such as Dylan Thomas and Richard Burton have been added new icons such as Catherine Zeta-Jones, the movie star, and Bryn Terfel, the opera singer. Indigenous foods like salt marsh lamb are in vogue. And Wales now boasts a national airline, Awyr Cymru. Cymru, which means “land of compatriots”, is the Welsh name for Wales. The red dragon, the nation's symbol sincethe time of King Arthur, is everywhere - on T-shirts, rugby jerseys and even cell phone covers.“Until very recent times most Welsh people had this feeling of being second-class citizens,” said Dyfan Jones, an 18-year-old student. It was a warm summer night, and I was sitting on the grass with a group of young people in Llanelli, an industrial town in the south, outside the rock music venue of the National Eisteddfod, Wales's annual cultural festival. The disused factory in front of us echoed to the sounds of new Welsh bands.“There was almost a genetic tendency for lack of confidence,” Dyfan continued. Equally comfortable in his Welshness as in his membership in the English-speaking, global youth culture and the new federal Europe, Dyfan, like the rest of his generation, is growing up with a sense of possibility unimaginable ten years ago. “We used to think. We can't do anything, we're only Welsh. Now I think that's changing.”1. According to the passage, devolution was mainly meant toA. maintain the present status among the nationsB. reduce legislative powers of EnglandC. create a better state of equality among the nationsD. grant more say to all the nations in the union2. The word “centrifugal” in the second paragraph meansA. separatistB. conventionalC. feudalD. political3. Wales is different from Scotland in all the following aspects EXCEPTA. people's desire for devolutionB. locals' turnout for the votingC. powers of the legislative bodyD. status of the national language4. Which of the following is NOT cited as an example of the resurgence of Welshnational identity?A. Welsh has witnessed a revival as a national language.B. Poverty-relief funds have come from the European Union.C. A Welsh national airline is currently in operation.D. The national symbol has become a familiar sight.5. According to Dyfan Jones what has changed isA. people's mentalityB. pop cultureC. town's appearanceD. possibilities for the peoplePassage BThe miserable fate of Enron's employees will be a landmark in business history, one of those awful events that everyone agrees must never be allowed to happen again. This urge is understandable and noble: thousands have lost virtually all their retirement savings with the demise of Enron stock. But making sure it never happens again may not be possible, because the sudden impoverishment of those Enron workers represents something even larger than it seems. It's the latest turn in the unwinding of one of the most audacious promises of the 20th century.The promise was assured economic security - even comfort - for essentially everyone in the developed world. With the explosion of wealth, that began in the 19th century it became possible to think about a possibility no one had dared to dream before. The fear at the center of daily living since caveman days- lack of food, warmth, shelter - would at last lose its power to terrify. That remarkable promise became reality in many ways. Governments created welfare systems for anyone in need and separate programs for the elderly (Social Security in the U. S.). Labour unions promised not only better pay for workers but also pensions for retirees. Giant corporations came into being and offered the possibility - in some cases the promise - of lifetime employment plus guaranteed pensions? The cumulative effect was a fundamental change in how millions of people approached life itself, a reversal of attitude that most rank as one of the largest in human history. For millennia the average person's stance toward providing for himself had been. Ultimately I'm on my own. Now it became, ultimately I'll be taken care of.The early hints that this promise might be broken on a large scale came in the 1980 s. U. S. business had become uncompetitive globally and began restructuring massively, with huge Layoffs. The trend accelerated in the 1990 s as the bastions of corporate welfare faced reality. IBM ended its no-layoff policy. AT&T fired thousands, many of whom found such a thing simply incomprehensible, and a few of whom killed themselves. The other supposed guarantors of our economic security were also in decline. Labour-union membership and power fell to their lowest levels in decades. President Clinton signed a historic bill scaling back welfare. Americans realized that Social Security won't provide social security for any of us.A less visible but equally significant trend affected pensions. To make costs easier to control, companies moved away from defined benefit pension plans, which obligate them to pay out specified amounts years in the future, to defined contribution plans,which specify only how much goes into the play today. The most common type of defined-contribution plan is the 401(k). the significance of the 401(k) is that it puts most of the responsibility for a person's economic fate back on the employee. Within limits the employee must decide how much goes into the plan each year and how it gets invested - the two factors that will determine how much it's worth when the employee retires.Which brings us back to Enron? Those billions of dollars in vaporized retirement savings went in employees' 401(k) accounts. That is, the employees chose how much money to put into those accounts and then chose how to invest it. Enron matched a certain proportion of each employee's 401(k) contribution with company stock, so everyone was going to end up with some Enron in his or her portfolio; but that could be regarded as a freebie, since nothing compels a company to match employee contributions at all. At least two special features complicate the Enron case. First, some shareholders charge top management with illegally covering up the company's problems, prompting investors to hang on when they should have sold. Second, Enron's 401(k) accounts were locked while the company changed plan administrators in October, when the stock was falling, so employees could not have closed their accounts if they wanted to.But by far the largest cause of this human tragedy is that thousands of employees were heavily overweighed in Enron stock. Many had placed 100% of their 401(k) assets in the stock rather than in the 18 other investment options they were offered. Of course that wasn't prudent, but it's what some of them did.The Enron employees' retirement disaster is part of the larger trend away from guaranteed economic security. That's whypreventing such a thing from ever happening again may be impossible. The huge attitudinal shift to I'll-be-taken-care-of took at least a generation. The shift back may take just as long. It won't be complete until a new generation of employees see assured economic comfort as a 20 th-century quirk, and understand not just intellectually but in their bones that, like most people in most times and places, they're on their own.6. Why does the author say at the beginning “The miserable fate of Enron's employees will be a landmark in business history…”?A. Because the company has gone bankrupt.B. Because such events would never happen again.C. Because many Enron workers lost their retirement savings.D. Because it signifies a turning point in economic security.7. According to the passage, the combined efforts by governments, layout unions and big corporations to guarantee economic comfort have led to a significant change inA. people's outlook on lifeB. people's life stylesC. people's living standardD. people's social values8. Changes in pension schemes were also part ofA. the corporate lay-offsB. the government cuts in welfare spendingC. the economic restructuringD. the warning power of labors unions9. Thousands of employees chose Enron as their sole investment option mainly becauseA. the 401(k) made them responsible for their own futureB. Enron offered to add company stock to their investment.C. their employers intended to cut back on pension spendingD. Enron's offer was similar to a defined-benefit plan.10. Which is NOT seen as a lesson drawn from the Enron disaster?A. The 401(k) assets should be placed in more than one investment option.B. Employees have to take up responsibilities for themselves.C. Such events could happen again as it is not easy to change people's mind.D. Economic security won't be taken for granted by future young workers.Section 2 Answering questions (20')Directions: Read the following passages and then answer IN COMPLETE SENTENCES the questions which follow each passage. Use only information from the passage you have just read and write your answer in the corresponding space in your answer sheet.Questions 1~3For 40 years the sight of thousands of youngsters striding across the open moorland has been as much an annual fixture as spring itself. But the 2,400 school pupils who join the grueling Dartmoor Ten T ors Challenge next Saturday may be among the last to take part in the May tradition. The trek faces growing criticism from environmentalists who fear that the presence of so many walkers on one weekend threatens the survival of some of Dartmoor's internationally rare bird species.The Ten Tors Challenge takes place in the middle of the breeding season, when the slightest disturbance can jeopardize birds' chances of reproducing successfully. Experts at the RSPB and the Dartmoor National Park Authority fear that the walkerscould frighten birds and even crush eggs. They are now calling for the event to be moved to the autumn, when the breeding season is over and chicks should be well established. Organisers of the event, which is led by about 400 Territorial Army volunteers, say moving it would be impractical for several reasons and would mean pupils could not train properly for the 55-mile trek. Dartmoor is home to 10 rare species of ground-nesting birds, including golden plovers, dunlins and lapwings. In some cases, species are either down to their last two pairs on the moor or are facing a nationwide decline.Emma Parkin, South-west spokeswoman for the PASPB, took part in the challenge as a schoolgirl. She said the society had no objections to the event itself but simply wanted it moved to another time of year. “It is a wond erful activity for the children who take part but, having thousands of people walking past in one weekend when birds are breeding is hardly ideal,” she said. “We would prefer it to take place after the breeding and nesting season is over. There is a risk of destruction and disturbance. If the walkers put a foot in the wrong place they can crush the eggs and if there issufficient disturbance the birds might abandon the nest.” Helen Booker, an RSPB upland conservation officer, said there was no research into the scale of the damage but there was little doubt the walk was detrimental. “If people are tramping past continually it can harm the chances of successful nesting. There is also the fear of direct trampling of eggs.” A spokesman for the Dartmoor National Park Authority said the breeding season on the moor lasted from early March to mid-July, and the Ten Tors Challenge created the potential for disturbance for March, when participants start training.To move the event to the autumn was difficult because children would be on holiday during the training period. There was a possibility that some schools in the Southwest move to a four-term year in 2004, “but until then any change was unlikely. The authority last surveyed bird life on Dartmoor two year ago and if the next survey showed any further decline, it would increase pressure to move the Challenge,” he said.Major Mike Pether, secretary of the army committee that organises the Challenge, said the event could be moved if there was the popular will. “The Te n Tors has been running for 42 years and it has always been at this time of the year. It is almost in tablets of stone but that's not to say we won't consider moving if there is a consensus in favour. However, although the RSPB would like it moved, 75 per cent of the people who take part want it to stay as it is,” he said. Major Pether said the trek could not be moved to earlier in the year because it would conflict with the lambing season, most of the children were on holiday in the summer, and the winter weather was too harsh. Datmoor National Park occupies some 54 sq km of hills topped by granite outcrops known as “Tors” with the highest Tor-capped hill reaching 621 m. The valleys and dips between the hills are often sites of bogs to snare the unwary hiker. The moor has long been used by the British Army as a training and firing range. The origin of the event stretches back to 1959 when three Army officers exercising on the moor thought it would provide a challenge for civilians as well as soldiers. In the first year 203 youngsters took up the challenges. Since then teams, depending on age and ability, face hikes of 35, 45 or 55 miles between 10 nominated Tors over two days. They are expected to carry everything they need to survive.1. What is the Ten Tors Challenge? Give a brief introduction of its location and history.2. Why is it suggested that the event be moved to the autumn or other seasons?3. What are the difficulties if the event is moved to the autumn or other seasons? Questions 4~5Mike and Adam Hurewitz grew up together on Long Island, in the suburbs of New York City. They were very close, even for brothers. So when Adam's liver started failing, Mike offered to give him half of his. The operation saved Adam's life. But Mike, who went into the hospital in seemingly excellent health, developed a complication - perhaps a blood colt - and died last week. He was 57. Mike Hurewitz's death has prompted a lot of soul searching in the transplant community. Was it a tragic fluke or a sign that transplant surgery has reached some kind of ethical limit? The Mount Sinai Medical Center, the New York City hospital where the complex doubleoperation was performed, has put on hold its adult living donor liver transplant program, pending a review of Hurewitz's death. Mount Sinai has performed about 100 such operations in the past three years.A 1-in-100 risk of dying may not seem like bad odds, but there's more to this ethical dilemma than a simple ratio. The first and most sacred rule of medicine is to do no harm. “For a normal healthy person a mortality rate 1% is hard to justify,” says Dr. John Fung, chief of transplantation at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. “If the rate stays at 1%, it's just not going to be accepted.” On the other hand, there's an acute shortage of traditional donor organs from people who have died in accidents or suffered fatal heart attacks. If family membersfully understand the risks and are willing to proceed, is there any reason to stand in their way? Indeed, a recent survey showed that most people will accept a mortality rate for living organ donors as high as 20%. The odds, thankfully, aren't nearly that bad. For kidney donors, for example, the risk ranges from 1 in 2, 500 to 1 in 4, 000 for a healthy volunteer. That helps explain why nearly 40% of kidney transplants in the U. S. come from living donors.The operation to transplant a liver, however, is a lot trickier than one to transplant a kidney. Not only is the liver packed with blood vessels, but it also makes lots of proteins that need to be produced in the right ratios for the body to survive. When organs from the recently deceased are used, the surgeon gets to pick which part of the donated liver looks the best and to take as much of it as needed. Assuming all goes well, a healthy liver can grow back whatever portion of the organ is missing, sometimes within a month.A living-donor transplant works particularly well when an adult donates a modest portion of the liver to a child. Usually only the left lobe of the organ is required, leading to a mortality rate for living-donors in the neighborhood of 1 in 500 to 1 in 1, 000. But when the recipient is another adult, as much as 60% of the donor's liver has to be removed. “There really is very little margin for error,” says Dr. Fung. By way of analogy, he suggests, think of a tree. “An adult-to-child living-donor transplant is like cutting off a limb. With an adult-to-adult transplant, you're splitting the trunk in half and trying to keep both halves alive.”Even if a potential donor understand and accepts these risks, that doesn't necessarily mean the operation should proceed. All sorts of subtle pressures can be brought to bear on such a decision, says Dr. Mark Siegler, director of the MacLean forClinical Medical Ethics at th e University of Chicago. “Sometimes the sicker the patient, the greater the pressure and the more willing the donor will be to accept risks.” If you feel you can't say no, is your decision truly voluntary? And if not, is it the medical community's responsibility to save you from your own best intentions?Transplant centers have developed screening programs to ensure that living donors fully understand the nature of their decision. But unexamined, for the most part, is the larger issue of just how much a volunteer should be allowed to sacrifice to save another human being. So far, we seem to be saying some risk is acceptable, although we're still vaguer about where the cutoff should be. There will always be family members like Mike Hurewitz who are heroically prepared to make the ultimate sacrifice for a loved one. What the medical profession and society must decide is if it'sappropriate to let them do so.4. Describe in your own words the liver transplant between the two brothers Mike and Adam.5. What is the major issue raised in the article?III. Writing (30')Some people see education simply as going to school or college, or as a means to secure good jobs; other people view education as a lifelong process.

Writing (30')Education as a Lifelong ProcessWhen we talk about education, we can easily think of schools, colleges and young people. As a matter of fact, education is so important in modern society that it can beviewed as a lifelong process.Firstly, it's the requirement of fast-developing society to receive education despite of your age. Our world is changing dramatically with the development of new science and technology. A person who completed his education at school in the 1970 s or the 1980 s may have encountered new problems when he is working now. The problems might have something to do with his major or other aspects. For example an accountant now must master the skills of accounting through computers, which is a basic tool for him, so he should also learn how to apply his job in a computer no matter how old he is.Secondly, education creates human character and moralities. Through education, youth may learn how to make contributions to the world. And the old may learn new things to enrich their lives. Through education, a healthy person can become stronger and a disabled person can have a new hope on his life. Man can find great pleasure in education.Thirdly, our modem society has provided everyone with the chance to receive education. As long as you wish you could get education by attending night-schools, adult colleges, training centers and even long-distance education through Internet andTV.In a word, knowledge is boundless, and life is limited. So education is a lifelong process.上一页下一页。

Persons then were assumed to be what we now have to call--lamely, enviously-- whole persons. If it did occur to the Greeks to distinguish between a person's "inside" and "outside," they still expected that inner beauty would be matched by beauty of the other kind. The well-born young Athenians who gathered around Socrates found it quite paradoxical that their hero was so intelligent, so brave, so honorable, so seductive-- and so ugly. One of Socrates' main pedagogical acts was to be ugly-- and to teach those innocent, no doubt splendid-looking disciples of his how full of paradoxes life really was. They may have resisted Socrates' lesson. We do not. Several thousand years later, we are more wary of the enchantments of beauty. We not only split off--with the greatest facility--the 'inside" (character, intellect from the "outside" (looks; but we are actually surprised when someone who is beautiful is also intelligent, talented, good.

In other words you are like animals which use up energy, whereas she is like the plants which store up energy. Henceforth you have got to get along with her willy-nilly in sun and rain, joys and sorrows, peace and turbulence. For you the Rubicon has been crossed. It is up to you now to make the situation a blessing or a curse. I would refuse to entertain any more request from you to take her back.

1、1994年Directions:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.According to the new school of scientists; technology is an overlooked force in expanding the horizons of scientific knowledge. 71Science moves forward; they say; not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools. 72 "In short" ; a leader of the new school contends; "the scientific revolution; as we call it; was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable directions. "73Over the years; tools and technology themselves as a source of fundamental innovation have largely been ignored by historians and philosophers of science. The modern school that hails technology algues that such masters as Galileo; Newton; Maxwell; Einstein; and inventors such as Edison attached great importance to; and derived great benefit from; craft information and technological devices of different kinds that were usable in scientific experiments.The centerpiece of the argument of a technology-yes ; genius-no advocate was an analysis of Galileo' s role at the start of the scientific revolution. The wisdom of the day was derived from Ptolemy; an astronomer of the second century; whose elaborate system of the sky put Earth at the center of all heavenly motions. 74 Galileo' s greatest glory was that in 1609 he was the first person to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that the planets revolve around the sun rather than around the Earth. But the real hero of the story; according to the new school of scientists; was the long evolution in the improvement of machinery for making eyeglasses .Federal policy is necessarily involved in the technology vs. genius dispute. 75Whether the Government should increase the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa 反之 often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force.精美译文新学派的科学家认为;技术是扩大科学知识的范围中被忽视的力量..71他们说;科学的发展与其说源于天才伟人的真知灼识;不如说源于改进了的技术和工具等等更为普通的东西..72新学派的一位领袖人物坚持说:“简言之;我们所称谓的科学革命;主要是指一系列器具的改进、发明和使用;这些改进、发明和使用使科学发展的范围无所不及..73工具和技术本身作为根本性创新的源泉多年来在很大程度上被科学史学家和科学思想家们忽视了..为技术而欢呼的现代学派争辩说;像伽利略、牛顿、麦克斯威尔、爱因斯坦这样的科学大师和像爱迪生这样的发明家十分重视科学实验中能使用的各种不同的工艺信息和技术装置并从中受益匪浅..鼓吹技术第一、天才第二的论据的核心是分析了科学革命初期伽利略的作用..那时的聪明才智取自第二世纪的天文学家托勒密;了精心创立的太空体系把地球置于所有天体运动的中心..74伽利略的最光辉的业绩在于他在1609年第一个把新发明的望远镜对准天空;以证实行星是围绕太阳旋转;而不是围绕地球..但是;在新学派科学家看来;这件事中真正重要的因素是制造镜片的机械长期以来不断的改进和发展..联邦政府的政策必然要卷入到技术与天才之争中去..75政府究竟是以减少对技术的经费投入来增加对纯理论科学的经费投入;还是相反;这往往取决于把哪一方看作是驱动力量..题目解析:71 、Science moves forward; they say; not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools.结构分析:宾语从句的主句Science // moves forward; // 主句插入结构they say; // 并列结构 1 not so much 原因状语结构through // 多重定语the insights / of great men / of genius // 并列结构2 as 原因状语结构because of // more ordinary things // 举例like / improved techniques and tool.词义推敲:move forward:向前发展..they say:间接引语作插入结构——前置..they:指代the new school of scientists技巧:单复数对应:according to – saynot so much... as... 是as … as …和……一样多的否定形式;理解为:“与其……倒不如……”..through因为技巧:not so much... as是个并列结构;也就是说so和as后面应该两个词的意思应该相同;所以多义介词through的意思应该等于because of因为;由于..the insights / of great men / of genius:天才伟人的真知灼见..多重后置定语——后浪推前浪;从后往前翻译..insights:the capacity to discern the true nature of a situation; penetration 洞察力;心智的敏锐——真知灼见;远见卓识genius:天才more ordinary things like improved techniques and tool这是结构是介词like短语做定语修饰中心词more ordinary things;也是先翻译定语;再翻译中心词:像改进了的技术和工具等更为普通的东西..like:such as参考译文:新学派科学家们说;科学之所以发展;与其说是因为天才伟人的真知灼见;不如说是因为像改进了的技术和工具等更为普通的东西..得分重点:插入结构;并列结构;原因状语结构72、 "In short" ; a leader of the new school contends; "the scientific revolution; as we call it; was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable directions.

Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.The standardized educational or psychological test that are widely used to aid in selecting; classifying; assigning; or promoting students; employees; and military personnel have been the target of recent attacks in books; magazines; the daily press; and even in congress. 71The target is wrong; for in attacking the tests; critics divert attention form the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users. The tests themselves are merely tools ; with characteristics that can be measured with reasonable precision under specified conditions. Whether the results will be valuable ; meaningless; or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user .All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance: school grades; research productivity; sales records; or whatever is appropriate. 72How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount ; reliability ; and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted. Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.Standardized tests should be considered in this context. They provide a quick; objective method of getting some kinds of information about what a person learned ; the skills he has developed; or the kind of person he is. The information so obtained has; qualitatively; the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information. 73Whether to use tests. other kinds of information; or both in a particular situation depends; therefore; upon the evidence from experience concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.74In general; the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined. Properly used; they provide a rapid means of getting comparableinformation about many people Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized; but there are many things they do not do.75For example; they do not compensate for gross social inequality; and thus do not tell how able an underprivileged youngster might have been had he grown up under more favorable circumstances.精美译文:标准化教育测试或心理同在广泛应用于协助选拔、委派或提拔学生、雇员和军事人员;这些测试一直是某些人近年来在书本、杂志、日报;甚至国会中进行抨击的目标..71把标准化测试作为抨击目标是错误的;因为在抨击这类测试时;批评者没有注意到其弊病来自测试使用者对测试不解或使用不当..这些测试本身只是一种工具..它的各种特性可以在规定条件下用适当的精度来测定..测试的结果是在有价值的、无意义的、还是误导的;部分取决于这种工具本身;但主要取决于测试使用者..所有对未来表现的有见识地的预测都是以在某种程度上了解有关过去的表现为基础的:学校学习成绩、研究效益、销售记录或任何符合需要的信息..72这些预测在多大程度上为的后来的表现所证实;这取决于所采用信息的数量、可靠性和适宜性;以及解释这些信息的技能和才智..任何仔细记分的人都知道;所得到的信息总是不完全的;而且这些预测也总是会有错误的..应该根据这种观点去考察标准化测试..标准化测试提供了快速、客观地得到某些信息的方法;这些信息是有关一个人所学到的知识、他所获得的技能;或者他是属于哪一类型的人..这样得到的信息;从性质上讲;与其它种类的信息一样具有优点或缺点..73因此;在某一特定情况下;究竟是采用测试还是其他种类的信息;或是两者兼用;须凭有关相对效度的经验依据而定;也取决于诸如费用和有无来源等因素..74一般来说;当所要测定的特征能很精确界定时;测试最为有效;而当所要测定或预测的东西不能明确地界定时;测试的效果则最差..这些测试如能恰当使用;就能提供一种快速的方法来获得有关许多人的可比性信息..有时这些测试能鉴别出一些学生;他们很高的潜在能力过去一直没有被承认..但是也有入场多事情这些测试是不能胜任的..75例如;测试并不弥补明显的社会不公;因此;它们不能说明一个物质条件差的年轻人;如果在较好的环境下成长的话;会有多大才干..题目解析:71 、The target is wrong;

Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.The differences in relative growth of various areas of scientific research have several causes.71Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of socialneeds. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating. Some ; how-ever ; are less reasonable processes of different growth in which preconception of the form scientific theory ought to take; by persons in authority; act to alter the growth pattern of different areas.This is a new problem probably not yet unavoidable; but it is a frightening trend. 72This trend began during the Second World War; when several govemments came to the conclusion that the specific demands that a government wants to make of its scientific establishment cannot generally be foreseen in detail. It can be predicted; however; that from time to time questions will arise which will require specific scientific answers. It is therefore generally valuable to treat the scien-tific establishment as a resource or machine to be kept in functional order.73This seems mostly effectively done by supporting a certain amount of research not related to immediate goals but of possible consequence in the future.This kind of support ; like all government support ; requires decisions about the appropriate recipients of funds. Decisions based on utility as opposed to lack of utility are straightforward. But a decision among projects none of which has immediate utilityis more difficult. The goal of the supporting agencies is the praisable one of supporting "good " as opposed to "bad" science; but a valid determination is difficult to make. Generally; the idea of good science tends to become confused with the capacity of the field in question to generate an elegant theory. 74However; the world is so made that elegant systems are in principle unable to deal with some of the world's more fascinating and delightful aspects. 75 New forms of thought as well as new subjects for thought must arise in the future as they have in the past; giving rise to new standards of elegance.精美译文:科学研究的各种领域的相关发展;存在若干原因..71在这些原因中;有些完全是自然而然地来自社会需求..另一些则是由于科学在一定程度上自我加速而产生某些特定发展的必然结果..然而;有些发展速度的差异其原因就不尽合理;这是因为某些权威人干对科学理论研究应采取何种形式有先入为主的想法;这些想法起了改变不同科学领域的发展模式的作用..这是一个新问题;也许并非是不可避免的问题;但其趋势却令人担忧..72这种趋势始于第二次世界大战期间;当时一些国家的政府得出结论:政府要向科研机构提出的具体要求通常是无法详尽预见的..然而;人们可以预见;往往会出现一些问题要求科学做出具体的回答..因此;将科研机构视为一种资源或一台机器;应维持其良好的运行状态..这样做通常是很有价值的..73给某些与当前目标无关但将来可能产生影响的科研以支持;看来通常能有效地解决这个问题..此种资助也与所有政府资助一样;需要决定合适的投资对象..根据某一项目是否有效来做出决策是明确无误的..但是在几个都没有直接效用的项目中;要做出抉择就特别困难..资助机构的目标是支持“好”的科学;而不资助“坏”的科学;那是值得赞扬的..然而要做出正确的抉择却是困难的..人们往往将好科学与该科学是否有能力提出一套完美的理论混淆起来..74然而;世界就是如此;完美的体系一般是无法解决世上某些更加引人入胜的课题的..75同过去一样;将来必然会出现新的思维方式和新的思维对象;给完美以新的标准..题目解析:71 Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of social needs.

(20 points)It would be interesting to discover how many young people go to university without any clear idea of what they are going to do afterwards.(1) If one considers the enormous variety of courses offered, it is not hard to see how difficult it is for a student to select the course most suited to his interests and abilities.(2) If a student goes to university to acquire a broader perspective of life, to enlarge his ideas and to learn to think for himself, he will undoubtedly benefit.(3) Schools often have too restricting an atmosphere, with its time tables and disciplines, to allow him much time for independent assessment of the work he is asked to do.(4) Most students would, I believe, profit by a year of such exploration of different academic studies, especially those “all rounders”with no particular interest. They should have longer time to decide in what subject they want to take their degrees, so that in later life, they do not look back and say, “I should like to have been an archaeologist. If I hadn’t taken a degree in Modern Languages, I shouldn’t have ended up as an interpreter, but it’s too late now. I couldn’t go back and begin all over again.”(5) There is, of course, another side to the question of how to make the best use of one’s time at university.(6) This is the case of the student who excels in a particular branch of learning.(7) He is immediately accepted by the University of his choice, and spends his three or four years becoming a specialist, emerging with a first-class Honour Degree and very little knowledge of what the rest of the world is all about.(8) It therefore becomes more and more important that, if students are not to waste their opportunities, there will have to be much more detailed information about courses and more advice. Only in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand, a band of specialists ignorant of anything outside of their own subject, and on the other hand, an ever increasing number of graduates qualified in subjects for which there is little or no demand in the working world.翻译Section VIII: English-Chinese Translation (20 points)1. 如果想一想那些为学生设置的门类繁多的课程,我们就不难发现,对一个学生来说,要选一门符合他的兴趣和能力的课程是多么困难。

Error Correction (10*1 point)Directions: There is one error in each line marked in number, correct them and write the right on the Answer Sheet.An outstanding example of hardwired capabilities with greatflexibility for programming by us is language. Specialists agree that“the human brain genetically programmed f or language 1 development,” and that“speech can be explained only on the basis of an innate language-processed capacity within our brain.” Unlike 2the rigidity that is displayed in the instinct behavior of animals, 3 therefore, there is tremendous flexibility in a human’s use of this 4 hardwired capacity for language.A specific language is not hardwired into our brains, and we are 5 preprogrammed with the capacity for learning languages. If twolanguage are spoken in the home, a child can learn both. If exposed 6to the third language, the child can learn it also. One girl was 7exposed to a number of langu8ges from babyhood. By the time shewas five she spoke eight fluently. In the view of such innate abilities 8it is not surprise that a linguist said that chimpanzee experiments 9with sign language “actually prove that chimps are capable of even 10the most rudimentary forms of human language.”IV. Reading (40 points)Section One Reading Comprehension (30*1 point)Passage 1David Frost ——AutobiographyDavid FrostLooked at one way, it is faintly ludicrous that Sir David Frost should be writing his autobiography already. That he should have written just the first 30 years’ worth might be thought strange. Here he is, not yet 55 years old, producing a volume of 528 pages that takes us no further than l969.It is, true, the period of his life that established his name and fortune, that swift rise from undergraduate cabaret turn to star host on both sides of the Atlantic, joint founder of an ambitious ITV company and long since able to invite show business stars, business tycoons and a British Prime Minister to breakfast at three days’ notice. (An event recalled in his book with such empty indifference that you cannot decidewhether the comprehensive name-dropping is intended to impress or just a habit. ) And yet David Frost, a significant figure in British television, certainly in the rapidly changing environment of the 1960’s, remains something of a mystery. Never far from positions of influence, wealthier from his broadcasting activities than all but the biggest moguls, he is in many ways on the edge of things.His book, like his career, perhaps, is as fascinating as it is unsatisfactory. The 1ength is due to its liberal resort to program transcripts, which yield verbatim exchanges with his many interviewees as well as detailed recall of the highs and lows of That Was The Week That Was and the scripting process that achieved them.The private Frost is to be caught only in passing, as he remains true to his preface: “Where there was a choice between a’60s tale and a personal one I have tried always to include the former.”The outcome is, I think, an insider’s book, dependent on remembering the times or knowing the people. But at that level, it is highly suggestive of its era, offers a view from a unique angle, yields some new insights -- into the formation of London Weekend Television, for instance ——and earns its place in the history of British Television. Like its author.1. The autobiography covers the author’sA. last thirty years.B. life after 1969.C. life before 1969D. first 55 years.2. David Frost isA. an inf1uential TV host.B. a famous movie star.C. an ambitious politician.D. a fascinating novelist.3. The autobiography is described as an insider’s book because it requires a knowledge ofA. all his personal experiences.B. his unique insights into British history.C. the development of British television.D. what was really happening in the 1960s.Passage 2He Came in on Cat PawsQuietly, almost unnoticed by a world sunk into the Great Depression, Germany on Jan. 30, l933, was handed to a monster. Adolf Hitler arrived, not in jackboots at the head of his Nazi legions but on cat paws, creeping in the side door.The president, Field Marshal Paul von Hindenburg, 85 and doddering, hated Hitler and all he represented. In 193l, after their first meeting, Hindenburg said Hitler “might become minister of posts but never chancellor”. In l932 Hitler challenged Hindenburg. The president ——Protestant, Prussian, a conservative monarchist -- won with the votes of Socialists, Unions, Centrist Catholics and Liberal Democrats.Hitler ——Catholic, Austrian and a former tramp-carried upper ——class Protestants, Prussian landowners and monarchists.Nearly senile and desperate for any way to establish order in the fractious environment, Hindenburg fel1 prey to intriguers. Papen began plotting to bring himself to power and his supposed friend Schleicher to the top of the army. Papen offered Hindenburg a government with Hitler’s support but without Hitler in the cabinet. Hindenburg made Papen chance11or and Schleicher defense minister.In the July 1932 parliamentary elections, the Nazis won 230 of 608 seats, and Hitler demanded the chancellorship; Hindenburg refused. Papen lost a confidence vote in August, and his government fell after losing in the fourth election in a year in November. Schleicher, whose very name means “intriguer”, turned on Papen, persuading Hindenburg to name him chancellor. Hitler’s propagandist Joseph Goebbels noted: “He won’t last long.”To get revenge, Papen proposed sharing power with Hitler in January 1933; Hitler agreed, but with Papen as vice chancellor. Ever eager for order, Hindenburg shifted once again and fired Schleicher. “I am sure,”the president said “I shall not regret this action in heaven. Schleicher replied bitterly, “After this breach of trust, sir, I am not sure you will go to heaven.”Schleicher would later say: “I stayed in power only 57 days, and on each and every one of them I was betrayed 57 times. Don’t ever speak to me of German loyalty!At noon on Jan. 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler was sworn in as chancellor. Within one month, the Reichstag burned and civil liberties were suspended. Within two months, the Enabling Act stripped parliament of power and made Hitler dictator. On April 1, Hitler decreed a boycott of Jewish business. On April 4, he created the Reich Defense Council and began secretly rearming Germany. On July 14, Hitler made the Nazi Party “the only political party in Germany”.As they sowed, so they reaped. In the Blood Purge of 1934, a Nazi SS squad murdered Kurt von Schleicher in the doorway of his home. Franz von Papen lingered on, so powerless an errand boy for Hitler that he was acquitted at the Nuremberg trials.4. The author says that Hitler came into power “On cat paws” becauseA. he seized power illegally.B. he seized power by military force.C. he quietly took advantage of the internal conflict.D. he cleverly took advantage of the Depression.5. Hitler first asked to be made chancellor whenA. Papen lost a confidence vote.B. Hitler had won a third of the votes.C. Hindenburg fired Schleicher.D. Schleicher was fired.6. The chancellor was held byA. Papen, Schleicher, and then Hitler.B. Schleicher, Papen, and then Hitler.C. Hindenburg, Schleicher, and then Hitler.D. Hindenburg, Papen, and then Hitler.Passage 3Mercedes-Benz Gets Turned Upside downIris Rossner has seen eastern Germany customers weep for joy when they drive away in shiny, new Mercedes-Benz sedans.“They have tears in their eyes and keep saying how lucky they are,”says Rossner, the Mercedes employee responsib1e for post-delivery celebrations. Rossner has also seen the French pop corks on bottles of champagne as their national f1ag was hoisted above a purchase. And she has seen American business executives, Japanese tourists and Russian politicians travel thousands of miles to a Mercedes plant in southwestern Germany when a classic sedan with the trade mark three-pointed star was about to roll off the assemb1y line and into their lives. Those were the good economic miracle of the l960s and ended in l99l.Times have changed. “Ten years ago, we had clear leadership in the market,”says Mercedes spokesman Horst Krambeer.“But over this period, the market has changed drastically. We are now in a pitched battle. The Japanese are part1y responsible, but Mercedes has had to learn the hard way that even German firms like BMW and Audi have made efforts to rise to our standards of technical proficiency.”Mercedes experienced one of its worst years ever in 1992. The auto maker’s worldwide car sales fell by 5 percent from the previous year, to a low of 527, 500. Before the decline, in 1988, the company could sell close to 600,000 cars per year. In Germany alone, there were 30, 000 fewer new Mercedes registrations last year than in 1991. As a result,production has plunged by almost 50,000 cars to 529,400 last year, a level well beneath the company’s potential capacity of 650, 000. Mercedes’competitors have been catching up in the United States, the world’s largest car market. In 1986, Mercedes soldl00, 000 vehicles in America; by 1991, the number had declined to 59,000. Over the last two years, the struggling company has lost a slice of its US market share to BMW, Toyota and Nissan. And BMW outsold Mercedes in America last year for the first time in its history. Meanwhile, just as Mercedes began making some headway in Japan, a notorious1y difficult market, the Japanese economy fell on hard times and the company saw its sales decline by 13 percent in that country.Revenues will hardly improve this year, and the time has come for getting down to business. At Mercedes, that means cutting payrolls, streamlining production and opening up to consumer needs--revolutionary steps for a company that once considered itself beyond improvement.7. The author’s intention in citing various nationalities’ interests in Mercedes is to illustrate Mercedes’A. sale strategies.B. market monopoly.C. superior quality.D. past record.8. Mercedes is having a hard time becauseA. it is lagging behind in technology.B. Japan is turning to BMW for cars.C. its competitors are catching up.D. sales in America have dropped by 13%.9. In the good years Mercedes could sell aboutA. 527,500 cars.B. 529,400 cars.C. 600,000 cars.D. 650,000 cars.10. What caused the decline of Mercedes’ sales in Japan?A. Japan is a very difficu1t market.B. The state of the economy there.C. Competition from other car companies.D. BMW and Audi’s improved technical standards.Passage 4What our society suffers from most today is the absence of consensus about what it and life in it ought to be. Such consensus cannot be gained from society's present stage, or from fantasies about what it ought to be. For that the present is too close and too diversified, and the future too uncertain, to make believable claims about it. A consensus in the present hence can be achieved only through a shared understanding of the past, as Homer’s epics p informed those who lived centuries later what it meant to be Greek, and by what images and ideals they were to live their lives and organize their societies.Most societies derive consensus from a long history, a language all their own, a common religion, common ancestry. The myths by which they live are based on all of these. But the United States is a country of immigrants, coming from a great variety of nations. Lately, it has been emphasized that an asocial, narcissistic (⾃我陶醉的) personality has become characteristic of Americans, and that it is this type of personality that makes for the lack of well-being, because it prevents us from achieving consensus that would counteract a tendency to withdraw into private worlds. In his study of narcissism, Christopher Lasch says that modern man, “tortured by self consciousness, turns to new therapies not to free himself of his personal worries but to find meaning and purpose in life, to find something to live for”. There is widespread distress because national morale has declined, and we have lost an earlier sense of national vision and purpose.Contrary to rigid religions or political beliefs, as are found in totalitarian (极权主义) societies, our culture is one of great individual differences, at least in principle and in theory. But this leads to disunity, even chaos. Americans believe in the value of diversity, but just because ours is a society based on individual diversity, it needsconsensus about some dominating ideas more than societies based on uniform origin of their citizens. Hence, if we are to have consensus, it must be based on a myth ——a vision ——about a common experience, a conquest that made us Americans, as the myth about the conquest of Troy formed the Greeks. Only a common myth can offer relief from the fear that life is without meaning or purpose. Myths permit us to examine our place in the world by comparing it to a shared idea. Myths are shared fantasies that form the tie that binds the individual to the members of his group. Such myths help to ward off feelings of isolation, guilt, anxiety, and purposelessness ——in short; they combat isolation and the breakdown of social standards and values.11. In the author’s view, the greatest trouble with the US society lies in theA) lack of serious disagreement over the organizations of social life.B) non-existence of unanimity on the forms the society should take.C) general denying of its conformity with what it was unexpected to be.D) public negation of the consensus on how to conduct social reforms.12. Homer’s epics mentioned in Paragraph 1 exemplify the fact thatA) the present is varying too fast to be caught up easily.B) the future may be so indefinite as to be unpredictable.C) the past can help to shape a consensus in the present.D) the past determines social moralities for later generations.13. The a social personality of Americans results fromA) the multiracial constituents of the US society.B) the absence of a common religion and ancestry.C) the want of shared myths they possess in life.D) the obstruction of achieving a general agreement.14. It can be inferred from Paragraph 2 that Christopher Lasch is most probablyA) an earnest nationalist. B) an advanced psychologist.C) a radical reformer. D) a social historian.15. The author concludes that only shared myths can help Americans .A) to bring about the uniformity of their culture.B) to diminish their great individual differences.C) to avoid the sense of being isolated and anxious.D) to regain the feelings of social values and morale.Passage 5Genetic engineering holds great potential payoffs for farmers and consumers by making crops resistant to pets, diseases, and even chemicals used to kill surrounding weeds. But new research raises concerns that altering crops to withstand such threats may pose new risks ——from none other than the weeds themselves. This is due to the weed’s ability to acquire genes for the neighboring agricultural crops. Researchersfound that when a weed cross-breeds with a farm-cultivated relative and thus acquires new genetic traits ——possibly including artificial genes engineered to make the crop hardier the hybrid (杂交) weed can pass along those traits to future generations.“The result may be very hard, hard-to-kill weeds,”said Allison Snow, a plant ecologist at Ohio state university in Columbus who conducted the experiments over the past six years along with two colleague. They presented their results last week at the annual meeting of the Ecological Society of America in Madison, Wisconsin. The findings suggest the genetic engineering done with the aim of improving crops ——giving them new genetic traits such as resistance to herbicides (chemicals which kill weeds) or pest ——could ultimately have unintended and harmful consequences for the crops if weeds acquire the same trait and use it to out compete the crops. “Gene movement from crops to their wild relatives is an ongoing process that can be u1timately harmful to crops,” said Snow.“The results of the experiments challenge a common belief that hybrids gradually die out over several generations,”Snow explained. “There has been an assumption that genes would not persist in crop-weed hybrids because hybrids are thought to be less successful at reproducing,”she said. However, Snow’s research contradicted his assumption: Hybrid wild radishes survived in all six generations that were grown since the study began.Although the genetic traits the scientists monitored were natural and not genetically engineered, the findings nonetheless suggest that artificial improvements introduced into crops through genetic engineering could spread to weeds and become permanent traits of the weed population.So strengthened, the weeds may pose a serious risk to the long-term health of agricultural crops. The danger exists in a number of crops plants ——including rice, sunflower, and carrots ——that are closely related to weeds with which they compete. Snow is concerned that the transfer of genes from crops to related weeds could rapidly render many herbicides ineffectual. That situation, she said, would be much like bacterial disease acquiring resistance to antibiotics.Because plant hybrids arise in a single generation, however, it could happen much more quickly.“Modern agriculture is heavily dependent on herbicides,”she said, “so people will notice when those do not work anymore.”16. The word “This” (Line 4, Para. 1) refers toA) the results of recent research B) dangers inherent in the nature of weedsC) risk of altering crop’s genetic make-upsD) threats posed by chemical used to kill weeds17. According to the passage, genetic engineering can be used toA) kill weeds through cross-breeding B) make crops free from chemicalsC) improve the yield and quality of most cropsD) make crops resistant to chemical fertilizers18. Genetically modified crops could have harmful effects becauseA) genetically modified plants can bring new diseasesB) genetically modified plants are likely to develop into weedsC) gene movement between cultivated plants and wild ones is inevitableD) hybrids are generally more successful at breeding than natural plants19. The potential that some weeds may do serious harm to genetically modified plants is greatest forA) crops who rely on herbicides and pesticides for effective harvestsB) areas in which cross-breeding is kept to a minimumC) agricultural crops grown for their grainsD) crops that are intimately related to their weeds20. According to the author, the main impact gene transfer between crops and weeds could have isA) the rapid deve1opment of unintended plant hybridsB) the development of pest-and-herbicide-resistant weedsC) the collapse of the agricultural industry D) the dying-out of hybridsPassage 6Since the dawn of human ingenuity, people have devised ever more cunning tools to cope with work that is dangerous, boring, burdensome, or just plain nasty. That compulsion has resulted in robotics science of conferring various human capabilities on machines. And if scientists have yet to create the mechanical version of science fiction, they have begun to come close.As a result, the modern world is increasingly populated by intelligent gizmos whose presence we barely notice but whose universal existence has removed much human labor. Our factories hum to the rhythm of robot assembly arms. Our banking is done at automated teller terminals that thank us with mechanical politeness for the transaction. Our subway trains are controlled by tireless robot-drivers. And thanks to the continual miniaturization of electronics and micro-mechanics, there are already robot systems that can perform some kinds of brain and bone surgery with sub-millimeter accuracy ——far greater precision than highly skilled physicians can achieve with their hands alone.But if robots are to reach the next stage of laborsaving utility, they will have to operate with less human supervision and be able to make at least a few decisions for themselves ——goals that pose a real challenge. “while we know how to tell a robot to handle a specific error,”says Dave Lavery, manager of a robotics program atNASA, “we can not give a robot enough common sense to reliably interact with a dynamic world.”Indeed the quest for true artificial intelligence has produced very mixed results. Despite a spell of optimism in the l960s and l970s when it appeared that transistor circuits and microprocessors might be able to copy the action of the human brain by the year 20l0, researchers lately have begun to extend that forecast by decades if not centuries.What they found, in attempting to model thought, is that the human brain's roughly one hundred billion nerve cells are much more talented ——and human perception far more complicated ——than previously imagined. They have built robot that can recognize the error of a machine panel by a fraction of a millimeter in a controlled factory environment. But the human mind can glimpse a rapidly changing scene and immediately disregard the 98 Percent that is irrelevant, instantaneously focusing on the monkey at the side of a winding forest road or the single suspicious face in a big crowd. The most advanced computer system on earth can not approach that kind of ability, and neuroscientists still do not know quite how we do it.2l. Human ingenuity was initially demonstrated inA) the use of machines to produce science fiction.B) the wide use of machines in manufacturing industry.C) the invention of tools for difficult and dangerous work.D) the elite’s cunning tackling of dangerous and boring work.22. The word “gizmos” (Line 1, Para. 2) most probably meansA) devices. B) experts. C) programs. D) creatures.23. According to Paragraph 3, what is beyond man's ability now is to design a robot thatA) can fulfill delicate tasks like performing brain surgery.B) can respond independently to a changing world.C) can have a little common sense. D) can interact with human beings verbally.24. According to the passage, which of the following can robots do now?A) Make a few decisions for themselves.B) Deal with some errors with human intervention.C) Improve factory environments. D) Cultivate human creativity.25. The author uses the example Of a monkey to argue that robots areA) expected to copy human brain in internal structure.B) able to perceive abnormalities immediately.C) best used in a controlled environment.D) far less able than human brain in focusing on relevant information.Passage 7On an average of six times a day, a doctor in Holland practices “active”euthanasia: intentionally administering a lethal drug to a terminally ill patient who has asked to be relieved of suffering. Twenty times a day, life-prolonging treatment is withheld or withdrawn when there is no hope that it can affect an ultimate cure. “Active”euthanasia remains a crime on the Dutch statute books punishable by l2 years in prison. But a series of court cases over the past l5 years has made it clear that a competent physician who carries it out will not be prosecuted.Euthanasia, often called “mercy killing”, is a crime everywhere in Western Europe. But more and more doctors and nurses in Britain, West Germany, Holland and elsewhere readily admit to practicing it, most often in the “passive”form of withholding or withdrawing treatment. The long simmering euthanasia issue has lately boiled over into a sometimes fierce public debate, with both sides claiming the mantle of ultimate righteousness. Those opposed to the practice see themselves up-holding sacred principles of respect for life, while those in favor raise the banner of humane treatment. After years on the defensive, the advocates now seem to be gaining ground. Recent polls in Britain show that 72 percent of British subjects favor euthanasia in some circumstances. An astonishing 76 percent of respondents to a poll taken late last year in France said they would like the law changed to decriminalize mercy killings.Reasons for the latest surge of interest in euthanasia are not hard to find. Europeans, like Americans, are now living longer. The average European male now lives to the age of 72, women to almost 80. As Derek Humphrey, a leading British advocate of “rational euthanasia”says, “lingering chronic diseases have replaced critical illnesses as the primary cause of death.”And so the euthanasists have begun to press their case with greater force. They argue that every human being should have the right to “die with dignity”, by which they usually mean the right to escape the horrors of a painful or degrading hospitalization. Most advocates of voluntary euthanasia have argued that the right to die should be accorded only to the terminally and incurably ill, but the movement also includes a small minority who believe in euthanasia for anyone who rationally decides to take his own life.That right is unlikely to get legal recognition any time in the near future. Even in the Netherlands, the proposals now before Parliament would restrict euthanasia to a small number of cases and would surround even those with elaborate safeguards.26. According to Paragraph 1, which of the following is NOT true?A) “Active” euthanasia is regarded as a crime by Dutch law.B) The doctor who carries out euthanasia will be charged.C) An unqualified doctor carrying out euthanasia will be accused.。
