CloseWhen I was sixteen I left school and went to work in butcher’s shop. The manager was a young man, only a few years older than me. And he was very ambitious. Also, he was a little bit dishonest. When customers asked for best steak he would sell them poor-quality beef. He used to do this to young housewives, who if the meat was tough, blamed themselves for not cooking it properly. Sometimes, he did not give the correct change and the customer did not notice.One day, just before Christmas, we decided to close early because we had sold all our meat, except for one small turkey. As I was going to lock the door, a woman rushed in and said that she really had to have a ten-pound turkey. The manager tried to sell her the only one we had left. “It’s too small,” she said. The manager said he would get another one and went to the back of the shop with the turkey. I knew we did not have any more, so I followed him to see what he was going to do. He pulled and stretched the turkey to make it look bigger and then went back and said, “Here you are, madam. Here is the bigger one.”“Yes,” she said, “but not much bigger. I’ll take both of them.”Henry bought some presents and came out of the shop. Although the sun had clouded over, he did not feel like hurrying. There was just the time he needed to do what he wanted. He only regretted that it was not quite warm enough to sit down at one of those little tables on the pavement and take a cup of coffee. This would have reminded him of his first trip abroad and the delight he had taken in such everyday difference as the drinking of coffee in the open air. He wanted to experience all these simple pleasures again. As he walked though the quiet London Street and turned into the avenue in which he lived, he felt so glad to be alive that he almost shouted out with joy.In thirteenth-century Wales, there was a handsome young prince called Llewellyn. He was very fond of hunting and often liked to go out into the forests and mountains with his favorite hunting-dog, whose name was gelert. One day, however, he left gelert at home to guard his baby son who was only a few months old. In the evening when the prince returned from hunting he saw that his house was in a terrible mess. The furniture had been knocked over and there was blood on the walls. He could not find his baby son. Then he saw his dog gelert run towards him, covered in blood. The prince thought that the dog had killed his son. Prince Llewellyn became violently angry, seized his sword and killed the dog with one blow.However, when he looked around his house more carefully he found his son lying under a chair, alive and well. Then he saw the dead body of a huge wolf. He realized that gelert had saved his son’s life by fighting and killing the wolf. The prince was horrified at the mistake he had made and when he buried his dog he built an enormous pile of stones to mark the spot, which can still be seen today. He never went hunting again.In village on the east coast of Scotland, people were waiting anxiously for news. Two of their fishing-boats had been caught in the storm which had blown up during the night. In the cottages round the harbor people stood by their doors too worried to talk.The rest of the fishing fleet had reached the harbor before dark, and the men from these ships waited and watched with the wives and families of the missing men. Some had brought thickblankets and some flasks of hot drinks, knowing that the men would be cold and tired. As dawn began to break over in the east, a small point of light was seen in the darkness of the water and a few minutes later, there was a shout. Before long, the two boats were turning in past the lighthouse, to the safety of the harbor. The men were helped out of their boats and although they were stiff with cold and tiredness they were all safe.Men have lived in groups and societies at all times and in all places, as far as we know. They do not seem able to survive as human beings unless the live in close cooperation with one another. The most basic of these human groups is the family in its various forms. The most important reason for this is the simple fact that human beings take many years to develop. In infancy they are the most helpless of all earthly creatures. For several years after birth, a child has to be fed, clothed and protected day and night. In all societies such duties normally fall to a family group of some kind.Men form groups for countless other reasons. For instance, it is only by cooperating that they are able to control their environment and defend themselves.The impression that more women shoplift than men may be due to publicity. As a recent report on shoplifting pointed out: “every week, newspapers report the conviction of some middle-aged woman of blameless reputation who has stolen, for quite unexplained motives, some objects of little value which she could easily have afforded to buy. Most psychiatrists have at some time seen patients who were accused of this sort of theft.This raises the question of whether the middle class have a better chance of getting off shop-lifting charges than working class. The shops insist that they are concerned solely with whether customers have paid for the goods. Their accent, class or ability to browbeat, is unimportant. But, if charged, the middle class are undoubtedly in a better situation. They are more likely to have, or call in, a solicitor, and they are financially able to risk paying legal costs. The solicitor or friends or relations-may suggest a psychological assessment. And a “respectable”first-time offender, backed by a psychological explanation of a momentary aberration, and defended by a solicitor, surely goes into the dock with more chance of acquittal than someone without these attributes.Publications that come out at regular intervals of more than one day are known as periodicals. The majority of periodicals go to press between a week and six weeks before publication and they are therefore able to print topical news stories and articles in a way that a book cannot. This is one advantage that the periodical has over the book. Other advantages are that periodicals are cheaper, they are easier to read, and their content is more varied.Periodicals differ from newspapers because they do not concentrate upon giving the reader a summary of the immediate news. There are also physical differences. Most periodicals are printed on better paper, they are smaller and are staple or stitched together so that they last longer. The line between newspaper and periodicals is not clearly drawn, however, because some weeklies that appear in newspaper form are really periodicals.Great differences exist between the various types of periodicals. They cater for wide variety of tastes and may be concerned with anything from the technical aspects of frying fish and chips to trends in present-day African literature. They include magazines of all types, trade and technicaljournals, reviews, children’s magazines and comics.A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred texts. It is always much better to tell a story than to read it out of a book and, if a parent can produce an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. On the whole, their symbolic verbal discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think, well-authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy stories. Often, however, this arises from the child having been told the story on only one occasion. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of madmen attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick or covering telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted girl-friend.No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane child has ever believed that it was.。

Florence was simply a troublesome daughter who took an unseemly (2) in hospitals and refused to marry.

The letters (5) an independent, radical and questioning woman. Egypt only (6) her in her resolve.This is a (7) in itself. But Mr Sattin has added a (8). It turns out that Nightingale’s voyage (9) with the young Gustave Flaubert’s, and that they (10) the ferry from Alexandria to Cairo. Flaubert (11) the English party—hideous, he wrote, old Mrs Bracebridge (12) like a sick parrot. But they never met—neither then nor later as they sailed, on different boats, to Abu Simbel and back, and stopped off to (13) at the same ruins. Perhaps it was as well. Crudely speaking, Egypt put Nightingale in (14) of the Bible, and Flaubert of the nearest brothel. Among the temple ruins, she interpreted hieroglyphs, while he interpreted vulture droppings “as though Nature (15) to the monuments of Egypt: ‘You will have none of me? You will not (16) the seed of the l ichen? Eh bien, merde, I’ll shit on you’.”Mr Sattin does not use this particular (17), but he makes the point. Reverence wasn’t Flaubert’s (18). On the whole, he (19)people to temples. Temples didn’t always work for Nightingale either, but they could sometimes (20)her into ineffable transports. She even heard the voice of God, and made a (21)of having “settled the question” with Him; the question being her future in nursing.Flaubert would have (22), and yet the place worked on him too. The sheer (23)of the monuments astonished and humbled him. He had arrived (24) sore that his unpublished novel, “The Temptation of Saint Anthony”, with which he meant to (25) the literary world, had failed to impress his friends. Egypt changed that: “I don’t know if the s ight of ruins (26) great thoughts”, he wrote to a friend, “but I wonder where this profound (27) comes from at the idea of becoming famous and talked about.” Without forcing, Mr Sattin (28) the parallels. Flaubert and Nightingale had arrived with a thwarted sense of destiny. Egypt flung them in the air—in Flaubert’s words, like being thrown, fast asleep, into the middle of a Beethoven symphony. By the time they left, they had (29) up. Flaubert declared his literary “pot was boiling”. He began “Madame Bovary” soon after. As for Nightingale, she (30) the question with her parents too—and the rest is history.Key;1 turned 2 interest 3 offered 4 break 5 reveal 6 confirmed 7 story 8 twist 9 coincided 10 shared 11 spotted 12 looking 13 gaze 14 mind 15 said 16 nourish 17 snippet 18 line 19 preferred 20 send 21 note 22 snorted 23 scale 24 feeling 25 astound 26 inspires 27 disgust 28 draws 29 woken 30 settled(astound, interest, confirm, turn, story, mind, wake, line, say, break, twist, gaze, share, disgust, reveal, inspire, note, snippet, settle, draw, offer, coincide, send, look, scale, prefer, feel, spot, snort, nourish)二.论美丽(subject, prevent, draw, run, send, relationship, perhaps, silent, paradigm, underpin, critical, end, encounter, expound, affinity, despite, connect, root, persuasive, reckless, unpleasant, mould, associate, abstract, give, liberate, come, emerge, create, describe)The works of Edward Morgan Forster have become popularly (1) with the lush cinematography of Merchant Ivory—and Helena Bonham Carter in a corset. Two new books about him may (2) readers back to the original novels with renewed zest. The first is a (3) appreciation by Sir Frank Kermode, who, at 90, is one of the grand old men of British literary scholarship. The second, by Wendy Moffat, digs to the (4) of Forster’s private self. When asked to (5)the Clark Lectures at Cambridge University in 2007, Sir Frank chose Forster as his (6). Forster himself had delivered the Clark Lectures in 1927 on “Aspects of the Novel”. By then he was no longer a publishing novelist, (7)the success he had enjoyed with “A Room with a View”, “Howards End” and his final masterpiece, “A Passage to India”, which(8)out in 1924. Forster would live on until 1970, a fellow of King’s College, Cambridge, publishing essays and criticism. But as a novelist he was (9).Towards the (10)of his life, Forster explained in his unpublished diary why he had given up on the novel: “I should have been a more famous writer if I had written or rather published more, but sex has (11)the latter…how annoyed I am with Society for wasting my time by making homosexuality criminal.” Forster was never going to be a (12)homosexual like Oscar Wilde. Until the first world war, and an (13)at the age of 38 with a soldier on a beach near Alexandria, he was painfully virginal. He eventually found happiness in a ménage à trois with a married policeman and his wife. But he was never (14)to bohemianism either in sex or in art. Unlike others of his generation, who broke the (15)of literary form by experimenting with modernism, Forster’s genius was quieter. Both as a writer and as a moralist, he regarded the exploration of (16)forms and ideas as dubious, valuing messy humanity instead. A belief in compromise, tolerance and kindness (17)his liberalism. Some regarded this as woolly thinking—a famous Cambridge critic, F.R. Leavis, believed his Clark Lectures were characterised by “intellectual nullity”. But the Forster in both these books comes across as covertly sophisticated. If his novels have not got the self-conscious “art” of Henry James, it is because Forster wished to (18)with the vagaries of human experience rather than to (19)a separate aesthetic universe. He was not, however, anti-art. Sir Frank (20)on the importance of music in Fo rster’s work, including the use of literary leitmotifs that (21)through his novels like musical themes. Forster loved Richard Wagner and felt an (22)with Marcel Proust, a writer for whom musical phrasing was a (23)both for art and for life. He wrote the li bretto for “Billy Budd” by Benjamin Britten, a British composer who called him “our most musical novelist”. Would Forster’s imagination have been (24)if he had been able to write openly about homosexuality? Sir Frank is not convinced by “Maurice”, his one novel about same-sex love, which was published only after his death. Its central (25), between an upper-middle-class man and his working-class lover, has been (26)as sentimental, its happy ending dismissed as wish-fulfilment. Although it does not achieve t he depth of “A Passage to India”—a book that was inspired, at a tangent, by Forster’s intense, romantic friendship with a Western-educated, upper-class Indian, Syed Ross Masood—Ms Moffat, nevertheless, makes a (27)case for its significanceSir Frank is affectionate, but not uncritical. He finds (28)snobbery, for example, in Forster’s treatment ofLeonard Bast, the pathetic clerk with literary aspirations in “Howards End”. Forster was, (29), more compassionate in life than he was in art. The man who (30)from Ms Moffat’s biography is ineffably human.Key;1 associated 2 send 3 critical 4 root 5 give 6 subject 7 despite 8 came 9 silent 10 end 11 prevented 12 reckless 13 encounter 14 drawn 15 mould 16 abstract 17 underpinned 18 connect 19 create 20 expounds 21 run 22 affinity 23 paradigm 24 liberated 25 relationship 26 described 27 persuasive 28 unpleasant 29 perhaps 30 emerges(subject, prevent, draw, run, send, relationship, perhaps, silent, paradigm, underpin, critical, end, encounter, expound, affinity, despite, connect, root, persuasive, reckless, unpleasant, mould, associate, abstract, give, liberate, come, emerge, create, describe)三.猎手与猎物(marvel, fill, hunger, visualize, arm, knack, chronicle, gawking, excel, prowl, brushes, hand, view, odd, preserve, sense, divide, show, spread, introduce, check, exploit, unsuspecting, available, echo, juxtaposition, escaping, hold, arresting, greet)All it takes to be a photographer, Henri Cartier-Bresson once said, is “one finger, one eye and two legs”.

With the instinct of a hunter, he knew when to click the shutter: “I (4) the streets all day, feeling very strung-up and ready to pounce, det ermined to ‘trap’ life—to (5) life in the act of living.”Born in 1908 in Paris, the eldest son of wealthy cotton-thread manufacturers, Cartier-Bresson had a lusty, rebellious (6) for travel. With a head full of Rimbaud and a copy of “Ulysses” under his (7), he set off for west Africa in search of adventure. (He aspired to be a painter, but Gertrude Stein suggested he drop the (8).) He bought his first Leica in the Côte d’Ivoire when he was 23. Light and quiet, the camera had just come onto the market, and it was a revelation. It fitted into his pocket, along with a few rolls of film. “Nobody took pictures that were better at (9) the portability of the camera,” says Peter Galassi, the chief curator of photography at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, wher e “Henri Cartier-Bresson: The Modern Century” is on (10).The show, many years in the making, is drawn primarily from the huge archive of work (11) by the Henri Cartier-Bresson Foundation in Paris, founded a year before he died in 2004. From the thousands (12), Mr Galassi has selected 300 images from 1929 to 1989, a fifth of which have never been seen publicly before.As cameras grew smaller and picture magazines bigger, Cartier-Bresson became a globe-trotting hired (13). But though he had a (14) for being in the right place at the right time—in India at the time of Gandhi’s assassination, in China during the Cultural Revolution—he did not really have a nose for a good scoop. What he (15) at was seeing things in a different way from most other people.The visitor is (16) by a wall of four photographs: a crowd of flag-waving, bespectacled Nixon-supporters in Texas in 1960 (the illustration above (17) a couple of more sedate fans in Indiana); a cluster of Chinese youth (18) at a television in Beijing in 1958; a mass of French mourners in coats holding hands in 1962; and a group of wizened and rather menacing old men in Sardinia, lounging in straw-like grass, also in 1962. The (19) of these images shows not just Cartier-Bresson’s range but also his gift for group portraits. When snapping a spectacle—a coronation, say, or a parade—he trained his camera on the (20) bystanders.The show is (21) into sections, starting with some of Cartier-Bresson’s most (22) surrealist work from the 1930s, such as a sunbather in Trieste, Italy, whose white body (23) a sliver of white in the grass, and his self-assured prostitutes in Mexico City. Then came the war (he was a prisoner in Germany for three years before (24)) followed by his career as photojournalist and portrait photographer.There is much to (25)at, such as the pictures of China in 1948, which capture the photographer’s powerful (26)of formal composition. Some of the curator’s choices seem a bit (27) and the written descriptions, which add little, are occasionally heavy-handed. One section, for instance, is (28) as Cartier-Bresson’s criticism of “American vulgarity, greed and racism”. But the visitor is left with a remarkable (29) of the transformations of the 20th century—the rise of industrialisation, the fall of colonialism, the (30) of commercialism and the grand-scale shift in world order—all captured by a lone man and his camera.Key;1 visualised 2 filled 3 checked 4 prowled 5 preserve 6 hunger 7 arm 8 brushes 9 exploiting 10 view 11 held 12 available 13 hand 14 knack 15 excelled 16 greeted 17 shows 18 gawking 19 juxtaposition 20 unsuspecting 21 divided 22 arresting 23 echoes 24 escaping 25 marvel 26 sense 27 odd 28 introduced 29 chronicle 30 spread (marvel, fill, hunger, visualize, arm, knack, chronicle, gawking, excel, prowl, brushes, hand, view, odd, preserve, sense, divide, show, spread, introduce, check, exploit, unsuspecting, available, echo, juxtaposition, escaping, hold, arresting, greet)。

上海外国语大学英专考研真题
2010年日语二外日语:对日语并没太上心,平时看也权当放松调节,也跟很多人一样,把副词、词组、不会的语法全都抄下来,就是没有背下来> <日语应该有九道题,共四页,(看试卷的时候窃笑,后来就笑不出来了)假名汉字各六分。
第三题应该是助词选择三选一,共十题,也不难。
第一页纯粹是送分。
第四道大题就是那些副词,选词填空13个词选10个(大概我对选词填空有阴影,都是英综完型害的吧><),头就开始大了,きらきらひらひらどころがかかわらず(记不清了),只记得有一句是孩子明眸闪闪,就是填きらきら。
第五题也是选词,我全傻了,10分,一题2分,之前的题都是一分,都是和ない组成的词,好像有个すまない,忘了,那五题我全用蒙的。
第六题还是选择,记不清考什么了,二选一,不难。
日译汉四题20分,很长,翻完写了A4纸满满一页,第二小题是欧美商务和个人事务分开,日本则是在酒桌娱乐场所谈生意。
第三小题是孩子不是父母的东西,父母都知道,他们说孩子想干什么就干什么,可又说你们不能干这个不能干那个,第四小题是知之为知之不知为不知,别不懂装懂,不懂要问。
(我说的比较玄乎,大概内容是那些,第一小题我忘了)。
汉译日五句话15分好像,给关键词组,第一句是“我有没有写名字,以防万一我还是看一下(念のため)”。
还有一句是“经过商量,小李他们决定元旦做牛肉盖浇饭(に決める)”。
那天中午我去永和豆浆吃的就是牛肉盖浇饭,摊手。
最后一句是“据我所知,大家都到会场了(限る之类的真想不起来了)”。
最后两篇阅读,也是送分题,不难。
今年难度集中在第二页第三页,就是副词那块,和蹩脚的日汉翻译。
有人说上外难度接近JLPT2级,我觉得副词那块可能比二级有些略难,二级改革后什么样我不知道,但二级改革前没那么难。
有几个副词压根在新编三本没见过,其它都只有三级水平吧,还是四级。
没必要纠结到底上外的二外和二级哪个难,二级最难的是听力,我考的时候周围一圈日语专业的小盆友笑得前仰后翻的我在那白眼望天,摊手无奈……这两个,个人感觉没有可比性。

But the latest Chinese science fiction movie, The Wandering Earth, offers a 1 idea.The film is based on a short story by a Chinese science fiction writer, Liu Ci xin.

Instead of giving up the Earth, this time we will 4 it with us.For thousands of years, “homeland” has played an important role in the hearts and minds of Chinese people. One old idiom is “luoyeguigen”, which means 5 one's homeland in old age, like fallen leaves coming back to the roots of their tree. It shows that Chinese people have their closer ties with their 6 .The special cultural background of Chinese is probably what sets The Wandering Earth different from Hollywood-style space films."What is Chinese science fiction?" Guo Fan, the film's director, said in an interview. "There is no more about superheroes to save humans alone. In Chinese culture, we 7 try our best to bring everyone together. This is what we saw in the movie. So the way that can really express our culture and spirit can be called a 8 science fiction. Otherwise, we just copy others and tell the same American stories."And the makers of The Wandering Earth chose the best time to tell its Chinese science fiction story. The film was shown on Feb 5, the first day of Chinese New Year. It was a time when many people had just made the 9 journey back to their hometowns no matter how busy the traffic they had to face.

Mr Proglio appears to agree with EDF’s21. He told France’s parliament this month that he was unsure whether EDF should expand to America by completing the deal with Constellation. “He doesn’t want EDF to22too many hares at the same time,” says a person close to the government. Yet Mr Proglio seems to have grandiose ideas of his own. EDF’s next-generation reactor, called the EPR, is designed by Areva, another state-controlled French firm. Areva is in difficulty because the first EPR, under construction in Finland, is well behind23and far over budget. This week Mr Proglio said that EDF should take control of the bit of Areva that builds reactors. The idea is a radical one, and Areva will certainly resist it—but it indicates the uncertainty surrounding EDF’s strategy.
EDF is also facing operational troubles. France has had to import large quantities of electricity this year because almost a third of its nuclear plants went out of14at some point, eor15. France’s grid operator recently warned that the country could even suffer power16this winter. One17cause, says Sofia Savvantidou of Citigroup, an investment bank, is many years of underinvestment. As well as spending more on everyday maintenance, EDF will need to invest to extend the life of its French reactors from 40 to 60 years. A few years ago it thought the cost would be18, but now it reckons it will need to spend €400mon each plant.
The rising cost of building new nuclear plants is another worry. Higher prices for cement and steel, the complexity of building new designs for the first time and onerous safety requirements are all adding to EDF’s bills and threatening profits. “Every morning we get a new safety request,” complains one executive. The24of the nuclear supply-chain over recent decades (there is only one supplier in the world for some components) and the sudden rush by multiple governments to spur construction are also25of inflation.
Even for EDF, however, the costs are9. In 2008 it bought British Energy, a utility which owns eight nuclear plants, for £12.5 billion ($22.5 billion). Earlier this month, after a long wait for regulatory10, it concluded a 11 to buy half of the nuclear assets of Constellation Energy, an American utility, for $4.5 billion. On top of these acquisitions it plans to build11new reactors (four in Britain, four in America, two in China and one in France). It also wants to build four plants in Italy and is12to build several in the United Arab Emirates, as part of a consortium in both places. These investments will stretch the firm’s balance-sheet. Debt now stands at €37 billion ($53 billion) and could rise to €65 billion by 2017-18, according to a report from HSBC, a bank. To help13its debt, the firm plans to make disposals worth €5 billion by the end of 2010.
According to one adviser, the problems with EDF’s fleet this year show there has been “too much attention given to financing international19and not enough to the basics of running the plants at home.” Some government officials want EDF to restrict itself mainly to Europe. Such a change of strategy would doubtless please the firm’s unions, which fear that expanding abroad will encourage it to20more like a listed company and less like a government bureaucracy.
EDF has long exported its nuclear-energy expertise, but earned only advisory fees for its efforts. It helped build China’s nuclear fleet, for example, for a few million euros. Now, as growth at homeslows, it wants to make bigger5by building and6nuclear plants of its own abroad. After all, it is one of very few utilities that can7to build several reactors by itself, without sharing the risk with partners or governments. And in an industry which atrophied after accidents at Three Mile Island in America and Chernobyl in8is now Ukraine, it has relatively extensive recent experience of building and operating modern nuclear plants.
