英语专业八级考试模拟题5(3)

英语专业八级考试模拟题5(3)

TEXT C In most of the human civilization of which we have any proper records, youth has drawn on either art or life for models, planning to emulate the heroes depicted in epics on the shadow —— play screen or the stage, or those known human beings, fathers or grandfathers, chiefs or craftsmen, whose every characteristic can be studied and imitated. As recently as 1910, this was the prevailing condition in the United States. If he came from a non-literate background, the recent immigrant learned to speak, move, and think like an American by using his eyes and ears on the labor line and in the homes of more acculturated cousins, by watching school children, or by absorbing the standards of the teacher, the foreman, the clerk who served him in the store. For the literate and the literate children of the non-literate, there was art —— the story of the frustrated artist in the prairie town of the second generation battling with the limitations of the first. And at a simpler level, there were the Western and Hollywood fairy tales which pointed a moral but did not, as a rule, reach table manners. With the development of the countermovement against Hollywood, with the efflorescence of photography, with Time-Life-Fortune types of reporting and the dead-pan New York manner of describing the life of an old-clothes dealer in a forgotten street or of presenting the "accurate", "checked" details of the lives of people whose eminence gave at least a sort of license to attack them, with the passion for "human documents" in Depression days —— a necessary substitute for proletarian art among middle-class writers who knew nothing about proletarians, and middle-class readers who needed the shock of verisimilitude —— a new era in American life was ushered in. It was the era in which young people imitated neither life nor art nor fairy tale, but instead were presented with models drawn from life with minimal but crucial distortions. Doctored life histories, posed carelessness, "candid" shots of people in their own homes which took hours to arrange, pictures shot from real life to script written months before supplemented by national polls and surveys which assured the reader that this hobby socks did indeed represent a national norm or a growing trend —— replaced the older models. 43. This article is based on the idea that ____ A) people today do not look for models to imitate. B) whom we emulate is not important. C) people generally pattern their lives after models. D) heroes are passed. 44. Stories of the second generation battling against the limitation of the first were often responsible for ____ A) inspiring literate immigrants. B) frustrating educated immigrants. C) preventing the assimilation of immigrants. D) instilling into immigrants an antagonistic attitude toward their forebears. 45. The counter movement against Hollywood was a movement ____ A) toward fantasy. B) against the teachings of morals. C) towards realism. D) away from realism. 46. The author attribute the change in attitude since 1920 to ____ A) a logical evolution of ideas. B) widespread of moral decay. C) the influence of the press. D) a philosophy of plenty. TEXT D During the holiday I received no letter from Myrtle and when I returned to the town she had gone away. I telephoned each day until she came back, and then she said she was going to a party. I put up with her new tactics patiently. The next time we spent an evening together there was no quarrel. To avoid it I took Myrtle to the cinema. We did not mention Haxby. On the other hand it was impossible to pretend that either of us was happy. Myrtles expression of unhappiness was deepening. Day by day I watched her sink into a bout of despair, and I concluded it was my fault —— had I not concluded it was my fault, the looks Myrtle gave me would rapidly have concluded it for me. The topic of conversation we avoidedabove all others was the project of going to America. I cursed the tactlessness of Robert and Tom in talking about it in front of her before I had had time to prepare her for it. I felt aggrieved, as one does after doing wrong and being found out. I did not know what to do. When you go to the theatre you see a number of characters caught in a dramatic situation. What happens next? They then everything is changed. My life is different I never have scenes, and I if I do, they are discouragingly not dramatic. Practically no action arises. And nothing what so ever is changed. My life is not as good as a play. Nothing like it. All I did with my present situation was try and tide it over. When Myrtle emerged from the deepest blackness of despair —— nobody after all, could remain there definitely —— I tried to comfort her. I gradually unfolded all my plan, including those for her. She could come to America, too. She was a commercial artist. She could get a job and our relationship could continue as it was. And I will not swear that I did not think:" And in America she might even succeed in marrying me." It produced no effect. She began to drink more. She began to go to parties very frequently; it was very soon clear that she had decided to see less of her. I do not blame Myrtle. Had I been in her place I would have tried to do the same thing. Being in my place I tried to prevent her. I knew what sort of parties she was going to: they were parties at which Haxby was present. We began to wrangle over going out with each other. She was never free at the times I suggested. Sometimes, usually on a Saturday night, she first arranged to meet me and then changed her mind. I called that rubbing it in a little too far. But her behavior, I repeat, perfectly sensible. By seeing less of me she stood a chance of finding somebody else, or of making me jealous, or of both. Either way she could not lose. 47. When Myrtle was avoiding the author he ____ A) saw through her plan and behave calmly. B) became angry and could not put her out of his mind. C) was worried and uncomprehending. D) decided that he could not bear the way she treated him. 48. The author felt guilty and angry because ____ A) his friends had discovered that he had not told Myrtle anything. B) Tom and Robert had told Myrtle about their plans. C) Myrtle had found out their plans when Tom and Robert talked. D) he had told Myrtle their plans before Tom and Robert mentioned them. 49. The author complains that his life was not like a play in which ____ A) the characters solve their problems by violence. B) the violence that follows action solves their problems. C) the action that follows quarrels solves their problems. D) the characters solved their problems in spite of violence. 50. The real reason why Myrtle was angry and upset was that ____ A) she had never wanted to go to America with the author. B) the author would not agree to take her as his wife. C) she did not want him to go to America with his enemies. D) she did not want to be felt behind in America.。

The Republic was a steamship carrying 59 16 from New York to New Orleans 17 it 18 in a hurricane on October 25,1865, according to newspaper reports and other historical records.All the passengers were rescued, 19 the ship and its valuable goods, including 20,000 $20 gold coins--intended to help pay for the reconstruction of the South after the Civil War — went to the bottom of the ocean with the Republic.Over the past thirty years, underwater archaeology 20 as diving equipment and robots that can be used under water 21 .

Buried with him were the tools of a hunter or warrior. There was a bone pin that may have been from a piece of clothing such as a leather coat. He carried a copper knife on his breast. The most amazing find was two gold earrings. That would have made him a man of distinction. Only a few centimeters from his head were two pots made of clay, tools and materials to make arrows, a bow and a dozen arrows for hunting and a second, smaller copper knife. Next to them lay a cushion stone, upon which the man could work metal.His grave is the richest of any found from that period, because this man was buried with two gold earrings which are the oldest gold ever found in Britain (dated to 2470 BC). Besides, he was buried three miles from Stonehenge. Archaeologists tend to believe he was a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.Stonehenge was begun around 3000 BC. In about 2300 BC the huge stone circles were built. The biggest stone weighed approximately 20 tons. But the smaller blue stones, still weighing 4 tons on average, came from west Wales. It is not yet known how these were conveyed over a distance of 380 km. It is also a mystery how early man was able to construct Stonehenge without the use of modern construction machines and lorries. He is an example of people who brought culture and new techniques from the European mainland to Britain. In terms of technical development people were going from the Stone Age to the Bronze Age and then to the Iron Age.36. Which are not included in the things that are found in the grave of a man'?A. Tools, a bone pin, a bow and a cushion stoneB. A copper knife and two gold earrings.C. Two pots, arrows and materials to make arrows.D. some chicken and grains.37. The man buried in the grave might be ______ at that time.A. A poor manB. a kind-hearted manC. a rich manD. an ordinary man38. Why is the man buried in the grave called the "king of Stonehenge" ?A. He was buried three miles from Stonehenge.B. He had the oldest gold ever found in Britain.C. He might be a member of a powerful class who might have organized the construction of Stonehenge.D. All of the above.39. What does the third paragraph mainly talk about?A. How Stonehenge was built.B. Building Stonehenge was hard.C. Stonehenge was made of big stones.D. It is a mystery how Stonehenge was built.40. We can infer that _______ .A. how Stonehenge was builtB. the King of Stonehenge was from FranceC. Stonehenge was built through several agesD. Stonehenge was built because of warBTHREATS TOOUR NATIONAL TREASURESJ: journalist X: Prof XuJ: People have always had interests in the past. Professor Xu, what are the most important dangers to our archaeological treasures?X: They get damaged or lost. It's a matter of education. People fail to take the right steps when something is found. Fortunately, the government has helped spreading the basic knowledge among the population, telling what is to be done when an archaeological find is made.J: What does that knowledge consist of ?X: Well, when something is found, construction work must be stopped and the police should be told about the find. That is to make sure that no further damage will be done.J: Does it still happen that people do not report things they find?X: Yes, indeed. They doubt whether it is necessary to do so. It sometimes happens that a find is not very valuable. They are afraid that they would make scientists come for nothing.J: Are there other reasons why people don't report their finds?X: Oh, yes. People are afraid that archaeologists may take a real interest in the site and spend many weeks or months digging around at it. That would result in farmers missing the right opportunity to plant crops or construction work to be stopped for a long time. They don't realize that they should not weigh their own businessinterests against our national history.J: If it is so important to dig things up and collect them, then why are archaeologists worried that other people dig up artifacts and give them to museums or add them to their own private archaeological collections?X: Archaeology is a professional discipline. Years of training and experience are needed. It is not just about finding things and digging them up. The field work must be done very carefully. Of every find there needs to be a written record, to which a photograph must be added. The records must also state exactly what was found, where it was found and when. The outdoor work is followed by work in the lab, cleaning, restoring and identifying each artifact. Finally, when all is done, an analysis must be written and published in a magazine or a book.J: Are there any other dangers, natural disasters perhaps?X: Unfortunately there are treasure hunters: people search for valuable objects, especially jewellery and gold. They are the worst. History does not need to fear nature very much. What has been buried has often been buried well. It is often human digging that causes the loss of valuable materials. It may seem a contradiction, but leaving things as they are would often be the best way of keeping things for the generations to come.41. The interview is probably a conversation betweenA. Mr Xu and his wifeB. a student and a teacherC. a teacher and a newspaper reporterD. a professor and a farmer42. According to Professor Xu, there are ______ why people do not report finds.A. no reasonsB. certain threatsC. few dangersD. several reasons43. The reason why some people do not inform the police about archaeological finds is that ______ .A. they are afraid of the policeB. the government has failed to inform the publicC. they think working archaeologists will cause troubleD. they don't have the years of training and experience that are needed44. For most artifacts ______ can quite easily see whether they are valuable or not.A. farmersB. the policeC. construction workersD. local experts45. In the opinion of Professor Xu, the greatest danger to our archaeological treasures are ______ .A. natural disastersB. farmers and construction workersC. scientistsD. treasure huntersC篇章结构A mental health researcher who has studied depressed mothers in Pakistan plans an effort next year to help them. Doctor Atif Rahman is in the Department of Child Psychiatry (精神病治疗法) at Royal Manchester Children's Hospital in England. Doctor Rahman led a team that linked depression (沮丧;消沉) in women with lowerweight in their babies during the first year of life. 46The study identified one hundred and sixty of the women, or one in four, as depressed. They had lost interest and pleasure in normal life. They always felt sad or tired. They had problems eating or sleeping. They felt guilty and thought about killing themselves.47 Re-examinations took place at two, six and twelve months of age. The health workers also re-examined the mental health of the mothers.Babies whose mothers remained depressed grew less than the babies of the other women. The babies of the depressed mothers were also more likely to get sick with diarrhea (腹泻). The findings appeared in September in Archives of General Psychiatry(精神病学档案). 48 Other studies in South Asia have found that depression affects almost twice as many women in developing countries. Conditions in poor countries can make it more difficult to care for a baby. Doctor Rahman says depression can make it even more difficult for a mother to do things such as boil water to kill harmful organisms (微生物).49 These women visit new mothers for up to a year. The workers offer advice about things like health and cleanliness.50 The program will be tested for three years to see how well it succeeds.A. Now Doctor Rahman wants to add special support for depressed mothers. The idea is that the health worker will listen to the mother's problems and suggest some easy things at first that she can do for her baby.B. Earlier studies showed that ten to fifteen percent of pregnant women and new mothers in Western nations suffer from depression.C. For ten years, Pakistan has employed what are called "lady health .workers".D. The team studied six hundred and thirty-two women from small villages in Rawalpindi. The women were in good physical health and in the last three months of pregnancy.E. The researchers compared these women with one hundred and sixty others who were not depressed. Health workers then weighed and measured the babies of both groups at birth.F. The study showed that depression in women had nothing with lower weight in their babies.IV.

2021年英语专业八级考试写作精选测试题及答案5社会焦点篇Topic 5Internet slang terms such as “dinosaurs",for ugly women,and “PK",for competition ,are now forbidden in Shanghai's official documents, news broadcasts and text- boohs. The public hold different views on the regulation. What is your opinion? Write an essay of about 400 words on the following topic :Should We Ban Internet Slang in News and Formal Documents? 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.范文呈现Should We Ban Internet Slang in News and Formal Documents? Nowadays,we frequently read the words in the newspapers,magazines or on the Internet, like "PK" dinosaurs" and so on. These are all Internet slang terms. Whether to allow or forbid these terms in news and formal documents has become a hot topic as the ban is introducedin Shanghai. The public holds different views on the regulation. From where I stand,as the inevitable result of social development,Internet slang should not be banned in news and formal documents.Firstly, many Internet slang terms are widely spread and commonly used among young people. Since we can find them used here and there, there are good reasons for them to exist in our language. Indeed, Internet slang terms tend to be short, simple, and catchy, so it is easy to think and use them to express our meanings. Even a little child can understand,remember and speak a few of those words. Moreover, with the dramatic increase of netizens and rapid expansion of cyber-communities,the language they use has formed such an influential force in real life that manypeople,especially the youth, think it fashionable to talk with some Net terms. As Internet slang is taking root in our language, it is not really possible to forbid its use completely.Secondly,there is no need to stop using new words created online. Some Internet words,such as “download“ , “link "and" homepage",are now used regularly. There is nothing wrong with them. Society is always changing,and language needs to keep up. Chinese should be able to absorb new words that are useful for speakers. In addition, the newspapers should tell people what's going on in real life. Though coming from virtual world, Internet slang largely derives from real communications between people, reflecting their true thoughts and serving their actual needs of expression. Then,why can't it be used in the news? Hence, it is not necessary to ban the Internet slang in the newspapers and formal documents.In addition, it is not practical to enforce the ban. How would the local authorities monitor the media efficiently and effectively? How should the government punish those who break the regulation? There are scores of newspapers andmagazines and millions of formal documents produced every day in a big city. Supervising the use of language in all of them is too time-consuming and expensive, if not impossible. Why not save the energy for something that is more crucial to people's life?Of course,misuse or too much use of Internet slang in news arid formal documents could bring a number of problems. However, the above discussion indicates that we should not and could not forbid its use totally. The better course of action is to be more careful when using them as we are with the choice of other words, considering its particular feature and style.点击免费试听>>>点击免费试听>>>。

专业英语八级考试TEM(5)

专业英语八级考试TEM(5)专业英语八级考试:TEM(5)TEXT BUps and DownsI was convinced that roller coasters were invented in Nazi Germany to conduct fiendish experiments on unsuspecting children who did not ear their vegetables. My earliest memory of riding a "death machine" was when I was 9. A friend of my parents was going to Astro World and invited us to come along. Being the natural adventures that we were, my sister, brother and I decided to journey with them. After arriving there, I somehow found myself waiting in line to ride the notorious Texas Cyclone. Yes, the roller coaster with the sign that should read: PLEASE SECURE ALL LOOSE ITEMS SUCH AS GLASSES; DENTURES; HAIRPIECES; VITAL ORGANS; SMALL, ORIENTAL 9-YEAR-OLDS; ETC. IF YOU HAVE NO WISH OF DYING, THEN GET OUT OF LINE NOW. THANK YOU."Oh, it's a lot of fun," said Lan, one of the older girls I was with. I was beginning to worry, nonetheless."This is a wooden roller coaster?" I asked."Yeah, it's one of the last ones around," boasted Lan.She reassured me a few more times that the ride was perfectly safe and that the odds of getting killed were as slim as something comparable to ... ohhh, living past the age of 9. I smiled to show her that I was totally relaxed and ready for the ride. But deep in the left lobe of my brain I was thinking. "WHADDAYA MEAN WOOD WHAT ABOUT TERMITES Has it not occurred to you that the reason the Cyclone was one of the last wooden coasters around was that people have better thingsto do than die by being flung from a few stories up off the rails at a gazillions miles an hour?"I stood in line watching others, with the sun filtering through the rafters, twitching my leg nervously. The heat sought us out through the patches of sun, and my legs began to ache from standing. For some odd reason I stayed in line. I'll try to explain this phenomenon as best as I can. You see, all males are forced by some masculine gland, located next to the pancreas, to get on a roller coaster even if they are scared to the point of a bladder-control loss. We are obliged by the girls standing behind us in line to get on the ride or risk the girls thinking that we, the studs we are, are of their gender if we don't. I finally got onto the ride hoping for a quick end. I actually prayed (honest, I'm not lying) and people in line laughed. I thought it eased the situation a bit.I stepped into the car and put the safety bar over my lap. A mad dash for the exitwas impossible. There were girls around, so I couldn't leave. The ride attendants checked the bars in the seats to see if they were secure by giving a little tug on each of them. I gulped loudly and grabbed hold of the bars firmly enough to choke a horse. The cars shoved off as we headed of to "concussion city." Clank. Clank. Clank. We approached the dropping point. For a split second I could see the whole park, and then WHOOSH! My stomach hit the ceiling of my skull and was about to escape via my ears as we hit the bottom. The ride did not stop until the end of the Reagan administration. I could hardly recall what happened because I was about to lose consciousness and depart my physical body. I did not breathe for the duration of the ride, and my pale, white knuckles could have been pried off the safety bar only with a crowbar and several power tools.I would cry this fear of roller coaster and dropping at great height for the next eight years. I tried my best to stay away from the larger rides and always took the "easy" ride with no steep drops. Embarrassment followed me every time I was near a roller coaster. I suffered a form of uncanny acrophobia commonly referred to by leading medical researchers as well "chicken".This past summer I found myself at the prestigious King's Island Amusement Park (also known as Spend-All-Your-Money-To-Us-Park) in Cincinnati, Ohio, with my relatives.I decided that in order to conquer my fear I had to, like any rational person would, totally avoid it. However, for some odd reason, the dormant masculine gland resurfaced, and I was forced to get on a ride with girls waiting in line behind me. I took my younger cousin with me, also. This was so I could sit in the designated "41 wuss-section" (or the middle) of the looping Pirate Ship and not be embarrassed because I had a small child with me. I pretended to act cool by talking through the whole ride to my cousin, who was concentrating on not dispersing the contents of these words:Me: WHOOOAHH! Here comes another one!Him: Uh huh.Me: WHOOOAHH! MOMMY!Him: Blurgh! (sound of him vomiting)People below: Look out! In coming!Before long I found myself on the ride, not assuming the fatal position. That day I went to some other big rides and managed to seem (in the least sense of the word) "manly". I credited my conquering the rides to my masculine gland. You know, it could have been my stupidity gland.39. The tone of the passage can most probably be describedas ____.A. tragicB. comicC. nostalgicD. facetious正确答案是40. Which of the following statement is True according to the passage?A. Roller coasters were invented by a German.B. Oriental children are not allowed to ride a roller coaster.C. The speed of the roller coaster is two gazillion miles per hour.D. The writer did not ride another roller coaster for eight years after his first ride.正确答案是41. How did the writer conquer his fear?A. It should be attributed to his masculine gland.B. He pretended to seem manly to the roller coaster, and nothing serious happened, so he was no longer scared at it.C. He has outgrown the childish fear of big ride.D. He had to pretend to be manly before his cousin.【。

He had never seen such beautiful falcons before. He loved them so much and he ordered the best falconer to train then to fly.After several months, the king came to see how the training was going on. He found that one falcon had already been able to fly high in the sky, while the other was staying on the branch(树枝) of a tree quietly, just keeping still.The king called all his falcons together and ordered them to try every way they could to make the other falcon fly. But none of them succeeded. One day, while the king was taking a walk in the forest, an idea came to his mind. Maybe someone who knew the natural environment well could solve this problem. He spent for a farmer who lived in the forest into his palace to train it at once.The next morning, the king saw the other falcon flying above in the sky freely. “it is unbelievable !”shouted the king. How could you make it happen”The farmer replied,“It’s very easy. I just cut off the branch where the falcon rested.”It is always the same to human beings. We all have “two flying wings”in our hearts as well, but we often seem not to notice them and stay where we just for safety and comfort. We won’t realize we can fly so high and freely until the “branch”we are resting on breaks.根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

Though there are some sayings about its origin, all agree that the word Nian, which in modern Chinese means “year”, was originally the name of a beast that started to eat people the night before the beginning of a new year.One story goes that the beast Nian had a very big mouth that would take in a great many people at one time. People were very afraid. One day, an old man came to their help and said he would stop all this. He said to Nain, “I hear that you are very strong, but can you eat up all the beasts on earth instead of people who are too weak to be your enemies?”“Yes,” Nian agreed with him and went to kill many of the beasts on earth. People were very happy because those beasts also did bad things to people and killed their farm animals from time to time.After that, the old man, who was a god, rode on the beast Nian and left. Nian was gone, and other beasts also went into forests; people began to enjoy their happy life. Before the old man left, he had told people to put up red paper cuts on their widows and doors at each year’s end to drive Nian away, because red is the color the beast felt most afraid of.From then on, every year at the beginning of spring, people prepare to “Guo Nian”. The word “Guo Nian” means “go through the Nian safely.” Putting up red paper-cuts to drive Nian away and making dumplings for a better new year are still an every year doing by the Chinese people. However people today have long forgotten why they are doing all this, they just feel the color and the food make the New Year very enjoyable.6. The Chinese New Year is also called ______ BA. the Beginning of SpringB. the Spring FestivalC. The New SpringD. The Beast Nian7. How did the old man stop Nian from eating people? CA. By putting red paper-cuts on windows.B. By eating up beastsC. By talking to himD. By riding on him.8. Why did people put up red paper-cuts instead of those of any other color? DA. Because Nian liked the color red.B. Because the color red color kill Nian.C. Because the old man liked the color red.D. Because Nian was afraid of the color red.9. The best title of this passage is ________ AA. The Origin of the Chinese New YearB. The Old Man and the Beast NianC. How to Go Through the Nian SafelyD. What Nian Was Like10. Which of the following statements is TRUE? DA. Nian can eat up all the beasts on earth at one timeB. Nian is a tall beast that likes to eat farm animalsC. Nian is afraid of paper-cutsD. Nian doesn’t like to use his own mind.Passage 2A foreigner’s first impression of US is likely to be that everyone is in a rush-often under pressure. City people appear always to be hurrying to get where they are going restlessly, seeking attention in a store, and elbowing others as they try to complete their errands. Racing through daytime meals is part of the pace of life in this country.Working time is considered precious. Others in public eating places are waiting for you to finish so that they too can be served and get back to work within the time allowed. Each person hurries to make room for the next person. If you don’t, waiters will hurry you.You also find drivers will be abrupt and that people will push past you. You will miss smiles,brief conversations, and small courtesies with strangers. Don’t take it personally. This is because people value time highly, and they resent someone else “wasting” it beyond a certain courtesy point.The view of time affects the importance we attach to patience. In the American system of values, patience is not a high priority. Many of us have what might be called “a short fuse”. We begin to move restlessly about if we feel time is slipping away without some return be this in terms of pleasure, work value, or rest. Those coming from lands where time is looked upon differently may find this matter pace to be one of their most difficult adjustments in both business and daily life.Many newcomers to the States will miss the opening courtesy of a business call, for example, they will miss the ritual socializing that goes with a welcoming cup of tea or coffee they may be traditional in their own country. They may miss leisurely business chats in a café or coffeehouse. Normally, Americans do not assess their visitors in such relaxed surroundings over prolonged small talks. We seek out evidence of past performance rather than evaluate socially, we start talking business very quickly.11. Which of the following statement is wrong? DA. Americans seem to be always under pressure.B. Americans attach less importance to patience.C. Americans don’t care much about ritual socializing.D. Americans are impolite to their business colleagues.12. In the fourth paragraph, “a high priority” means_________ BA. a less importance thingB. a first concernC. a good businessD. an attractive gift13. Americans evaluate a business colleague________ DA. through social courtesyB. through prolonged business talksC. by establishing business relationsD. by learning about their past performance14. The passage mainly talks about__________ AA. how Americans treasure their timeB. how busy Americans are every day\C. how Americans do business with foreignersD. what American way of life is like15.

英语专业综合英语5Unit 8练习答案

Unit 8 The Art of Smart Guessing1. 几年前,我给应聘者面试,问他们“你有什么经验”这个问题,后来逐渐问烦了。

于是,我决定做一项单个问题的测试,从而了解这位新人是不是个善于解决问题的思考者。

问题如下:2. 您乘坐一艘游艇,横渡太平洋。

驾驶员告诉您,游艇到了马里亚纳海沟最深的位置。

此时,有个笨手笨脚的客人不小心把一个重达12磅的炮弹掉进海里。

炮弹沉到海底要多久3. 在您往下读之前,请先来回答这个问题——要特别注意解题方法。

4. 您是不是因为“信息不够”就完全瞎猜呢您是不是过于拘泥于细节,而没能得到“绝对正确”的答案或者说,您是不是先全神贯注在两个最重要的问题上——马里亚纳海沟有多深炮弹在水里下沉的速度有多快——然后才敢做出估计5. 大多数的面试者就是胡乱瞎猜,心想反正不可能百分之百地准确。

很少有人愿意冒险做个估算。

6. 这与业务或创造性有什么关系吗关系大着呢。

在现实世界里,我们经常在没有充分信息时,需要做出决定。

从吃什么到怎样养育孩子,有创意的人必须自己来思考。

想要十拿九稳地做出决定,您也许既没有时间也没有金钱。

做出最佳的猜测常常是您最佳的选择。

7. 譬如说,假设需要您为一种新的电话设备撰写一份销售计划,这个设备可以将您的姓名、公司、地址和电话号码发送到其他人的电话上,既可视频显示又能打印。

除了像大众供货商和电子商店这些传统销售渠道,您得了解美国究竟有多少家“电话商店”。

遗憾的是,无论从市场研究部门还是从美国政府的官方数据,都查不到这个数字。

那您怎么办8. 有一个方法,那就是您到当地的图书馆去,取出全国各地的几本电话号码簿,翻到黄页,然后开始数数。

那么,您可以猜出在数过的每个城市里,每十万人有几家电话商店。

顺便说一句,我认识的一位营销顾问为一家大型长途通讯客户正是这么做的。

9. 这个关于电话商店的问题是科学家们称之为费米问题的例子。

这是以诺贝尔奖获得者恩里科·费米命名的,他用类似的问题教授学生独立思考的方法。

Today I’d like to talk about some of the problems that students face when they follow a course of study through the medium of English —if English is not their mother tongue. The purpose is to show that we’re aware of students’problems, and that by analyzing them perhaps it’ll be possible to suggest how some of them may be overcome. The problems can be divided into three broad categories: psychological, cultural and linguistic. Some of the common psychological problems really involve fear of the unknown: for example, whether one’s academic studies will be too difficult, whether one will fail the exams, and so on. All students share these apprehensions. It’s probably best for a student not to look too far ahead but to concentrate day-by-day on increasing his knowledge and developing his ability. The overseas student in Britain may also suffer from separation from his family and possible homesickness; enjoyment of his activities in Britain and the passage of time are the only real help here. Looking now at tile cultural problems, we can see that some of them are of a very practical nature, for example, arranging satisfactory accommodation, getting used to British money (or the lack of it), British food and weather. Some of the cultural difficulties are less easy to define: they are bound up with the whole range of alien customs, habits and traditions—in other words, the British way of life. Such difficulties include: settling into a strange environment and a new academic routine; learning a new set of social habits, ranging from the times of meals to the meanings of gestures; expressing appropriate greetings; understanding a different kind of humor; and learning how to make friends. Being open-minded and adaptable is the best approach to some of the difficulties listed here. The largest category is probably linguistic. Let’s look at this in some detail. Most students have learnt English at school, but they have had little everyday opportunity to practice using English. When foreign learners first have the opportunity to speak to all English-speaking person they may have a shock: they often have great difficulty inunderstanding! There are a number of reasons for this. I’ll just mention three of them. Firstly, it seems to students that English people speak very quickly. Secondly, they speak with a variety of accents. Thirdly, different styles of speech are used in different situations, for example, everyday spoken English, which is colloquial and idiomatic, is different from the English used for academic purposes. Don’t forget, by the way, that if students have difficulty in understanding English-speaking people, these people may also have difficulty in understanding the students! What can a student do then to overcome these difficulties? Well, obviously, he can benefit from attending English classes and if a language laboratory is available use it as much as possible. He should also listen to programmes in English on the radio and TV. Perhaps the most important of all, he should take every available opportunity to meet and speak with native English-speaking people. He should be aware, however, that English people are, by temperament, often reserved and may be unwilling to start a conversation. Nevertheless, if he has the courage to take the initiative, however difficult it may seem to be, most English people will respond. He will need patience and perseverance. In addition to these problems regarding listening and understanding, the student probably has difficulty in speaking English fluently. He has the ideas, he knows what to say but he doesn’t know how to say it in English. The advice here will seem difficult to follow but it’s necessary. Firstly, he must simplify his language so that he can express himself reasonably clearly; for example, short sentences will be better than long ones. Secondly, he must try to think in English, not translate from his mother tongue. That’ll only begin to take place when his use of English becomes automatic; using a language laboratory and listening to as much English as possible will help. In general, he should practice speaking as much as possible. He should also notice the kind of English, and its structure, that educated people use, and try to imitate it. The problem with learning English as a foreign language is that all English learners want to speak English well; however, most learners don’t want to spend time on learning English on their own. Learning English requires action. You may know all the learning tips, but if you don’t start doing things, you will achieve nothing. The fact is, if you want to learn to speak English well, you must change your life. Thank you for your attention.Some Problems Facing Learners of English Although many English learners have got high scores in an English test such as IELTS or TOEFL, they still face some problems concerning its learning.

Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.Now listen to the interview.听力原文:W: With me today is Peter Williams from Kingston University. Welcome! Peter.M: Thank you.W: Peter, you have recently done a large research study on training in small businesses. What made you focus on small businesses? After all, most of your experience has been with the huge multinational Cleantex. And in fact you did run their training department, didn’t you?M: Well, you are partly right. You see, when I joined the university a year ago they wanted me to start a training program for small businesses. I’d just sold my own small business, which I’d started when I left Cleantex. The 8 years I ran my own business taught me more about training than all my years with Cleantex. But I felt I couldn’t base a training program on my experience alone. So I decided to do research first.W: And how much training did you find in most small companies. Can they afford to do much training?M: Well, firstly small businesses are often accused of not doing enough training. But that is the opinion of big businesses of course. It’s true that the government is encouraging small firms to increase their training budgets. They’re trying to introduce financial assistance for this. But I have to say I find lots of training going on. The real problem is that most small businesses don’t always know how much training they’re providing or how much it’s actually costing them.W: But surely businesses have budgets and training records.M: Unfortunately most small companies don’t set aside a specific training budget. It’s not that they don’t want to spend the money but that they operate differently. You see, things change very quickly in small firms and it’s impossible to predict the training needs. An employee can be moved to a new project very suddenly and then training has to be organized within days. And most small businesses prefer to use their experienced staff to do any training on the job.W: Did you manage to work out the costs of training?M: Well, it took time to work out the indirect costs. You see, most small business managers don’t include these costs in their calculations. Most of them keep records of obvious expenses, like, many expenses like external courses, travel, training manuals, and videos, etc. But not many firms have specific training accounts and they don’t include the time managers spend on training, waste of materials, loss of productivity and so on. I spent hours with company accountants trying to see where these hidden costs were.W: How much are small firms spending on training?M: More than half of the businesses I surveyed spent at least 1% of their annual salary bill on training. And some of these spent up to 50//oo of their pay roll. In fact smaller firms are investing on average over 10X more on training per employee than larger firms.W: How good is that training?M: As I said, small firms usually get an experienced employee to show new staff how to do that job. This canbe useful if the person is carefully selected and well-trained himself. But it’s not really enough. The trainee needs to do the job with the experienced employee on hand for guidance and feedback. This gets trainees much better skills than any packaged courses.W: And has your study helped you plan new courses for small businesses?M: Definitely. I now understand what they want and how they want it delivered. I now know that small firms were only investing in training if it immediately helped their enterprise. But most formal training focuses on long-term business needs. Most small businesses can’t plan far ahead. They want direct results from training in skills they need now. New technologies and IT skills are identified as a priority by all the firms I surveyed.W: What is the first course the university offer small businesses?M: Up till now most of short courses for companies in general have dealt with helping businesses grow. These aren’t really appropriate for small companies as growth can be very risky for them. They obviously need to grow but they’re afraid of fast growth. I’m going to start with courses on IT and software the small companies are likely to require because of the business growth to come later. And they’ll need to be changed to make them more relevant to small businesses.W: Well, I wish you every success with the course.11.In his research, what did Peter Williams find about training in small firms?A.They spend too little on training.B.They are unaware of their training expenses.C.They receive state subsidies for training.D.They increase their training budgets.正确答案:B12.Small firms do not have specific training budgets becauseA.they do not want to invest in training.B.they do not have time to provide training.C.they do not plan their training.D.they do not have professional guidance.正确答案:C13.When calculating the cost of in-house training, many small firms do not includeA.course fees.B.managers’ time.C.accountants’ costs.D.travel expenses.正确答案:B14.Above all else, small businesses want training thatA.will answer their short-term needs.B.does not require immediate investment.C.will help their planning procedures.D.will focus on long-term business needs.正确答案:A15.The first university courses for small companies will deal withA.business growth.B.computing needs.C.structural change.D.managerial skills.正确答案:BSECTION C NEWS BROADCASTDirections: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. At the end of each news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions.听力原文:The American adventurer Steve Fossett has successfully completed the longest ever non-stop flight in an aircraft. He took off from Cape Canaveral in Florida three days ago and has covered more than 40 thousand kilometers. He landed in southern England, ending his fight slightly earlier than expected due to technical problems. At a news conference, he described the drama at the end of his flight. “The generator light came on, and as pilots we know, that’s really serious that if you don’t have a generator, and all you have available for electrical powers in your battery don’t last for about 25 minutes.”16.Steve Fossett landed in his destination ahead of scheduled time because A.there was something wrong with the generator.B.the pilots of the aircraft went on a strike.C.there was no electrical power in the battery.D.he didn’t know how to generate electricity.正确答案:A听力原文:The United States trade deficit widened, bringing the gap for last year to a record high of more than 725 billion dollars. The Commerce Department reported that the gap between what America sells abroad and what it imports rose by more than 65 billion dollars in December. It’s been 15 years since the US was somewhere close to selling as much overseas as it buys from abroad. But the concern about the size of the trade deficit has grown in the last few years. Last year it was equivalent to 5.8 percent of total US national income. It’s a problem politically because many members of Congress regard it as a sign that American jobs are being lost to other countries. The point was underlined by the especially contentious bilateral deficit with some Asian countries.17.Which of the following statements about the US trade is TRUE?A.The gap between its import and export narrowed.B.The Commerce Department shows great concern.C.What it imports has outnumbered what it exports.D.Only the government concerns about the trade deficit.正确答案:C18.The United States trade deficit is a political problem because congressmen thinkA.American people feel lost for the trade deficit.B.American job opportunities are taken away by others.C.American people will lose their prestige and privileges.D.there is a fierce competition between America and Asian countries.正确答案:B听力原文:Israel has accused Russia of betrayal after President Vladimir Putin said he’d invite Hamas leaders to Moscow following the militant group’s victory in Palestinian elections. One Israeli minister Meir Sheetrit said Mr. Putin has stabbed Israel in the back. Criticism echoed by the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations Dan Gillerman. “I do wonder what President Putin would feel like if any government in the world would invite Chechen leaders to discuss with them, their behavior or their activities, and this I believe on the part of Russia and on the part of President Putin is a very unfortunate development which runs the risk of legitimizing terror.”The French Foreign Ministry has indicated its support for Russia’s position saying the initiative could help achieve the objective of a two state solution for Israelis and Palestinians.19.France’s stand of the conflict between Israel and Palestine isA.to mediate between the two parties.B.to distinguish them as two countries.C.to invite Hamas leaders to Paris.D.to legitimize terror in Palestine.正确答案:B听力原文:New research into global warming published in the journal Science says the northern hemisphere is uniformly warmer now than at any time in the past 1,200 years. It says the present warm period in northern regions is the longest and most widespread temperature anomaly since the 9th century. Researchers have said in the past that the 20th century warming was unprecedented over the past thousand years, at least in the northern hemisphere. But critics disputed the claim, citing periods of extreme warm in certain regions during the Middle Ages. The new study sets out to tackle that criticism head on. Looking at the regional patterns oftemperature for the past millennium, it finds while there have been patchy periods of warmth in the past, only in the late 20th century are regions across the hemisphere heating up simultaneously. The analysis is also statistically simpler than previous studies, avoiding the charge that mathematical quirks have generated a false picture of the climate.20.In order to avoid certain charge, the analysis involvesA.cautious predictions.B.impartial judgment.C.careful calculation.D.simple statistics.正确答案:DPART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)Directions: In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.There were a number of carved stone figures placed at intervals along the parapets of the old Cathedral; some of them represented angels, others kings and bishops, and nearly all were in attitudes of pious exaltation and composure. But one figure, low down on the cold north side of the building, had neither crown, mitre, nor nimbus, and its face was hard and bitter and downcast; it must be a demon, declared the fat blue pigeons that roosted and sunned themselves all day on the ledges of the parapet; but the old belfry jackdaw, who was an authority on ecclesiastical architecture, said it was a lost soul. And there the matter rested. One autumn day there fluttered on to the Cathedral roof a slender, sweet-voiced bird that had wandered away from the bare fields and thinning hedgerows in search of a winter roosting-place. It tried to rest its tired feet under the shade of a great angel-wing or to nestle in the sculptured folds of a kingly robe, but the fat pigeons hustled it away from wherever it settled, and the noisy sparrow-folk drove it off the ledges. No respectable bird sang with so much feeling they cheeped one to another, and the wanderer had to move on. Only the effigy of the Lost Soul offered a place of refuge. The pigeons did not consider it safe to perch on a projection that leaned so much out of the perpendicular, and was, besides, too much in the shadow. The figure did not cross its hands in the pious attitude of the other graven dignitaries, but its arms were folded as in defiance and their angle made a snug resting-place for the little bird. Every evening it crept trustfully into its corner against the stone breast of the image, and the darkling eyes seemed to keep watch over its slumbers. The lonely bird grew to love its lonely protector, and during the day it would sit from time to time on some rainshoot or other abutment and trill forth its sweetest music in grateful thanks for its nightly shelter. And, it may have been the work of wind and weather, or some other influence, but the wild drawn face seemed gradually to lose some of its hardness and unhappiness.Every day, through the long monotonous hours, the song of his little guest would come up in snatches to the lonely watcher, and at evening, when the vesper-bell was ringing and the great grey bats slid out of their hiding-places in the belfry roof, the brighteyed bird would return, twitter a few sleepy notes, and nestle into the arms that were waiting for him. Those were happy days for the Dark Image. Only the great bell of the Cathedral rang out daily its mocking message, “After joy... sorrow.”The folk in the verger’s lodge noticed a little brown bird flitting about the Cathedral precincts, and admired its beautiful singing. They were poor, but they understood the principles of political economy. So they caught the bird and put it in a little wicker cage outside the lodge door. That night the little songster was missing from its accustomed haunt, and the Dark Image knew more than ever the bitterness of loneliness. When morning came there floated up to him, through the noise and bustle of the Cathedral world, a faint heart-aching message from the prisoner in the wicker cage far below. And every day, at high noon, the song of the little bird came up to the parapets—a song of hunger and longing and hopelessness, a cry that could never be answered. The pigeons remarked, between mealtimes, that the figure leaned forward more than ever out of the perpendicular. One day no song came up from the little wicker cage. There was a crackling sound in the night on the Cathedral roof and a noise as of falling masonry. The belfry jackdaw said the frost was affecting the fabric, and as he had experienced many frosts it must have been so. In the morning it was seen that the Figure of the Lost Soul had toppled from its cornice and lay now in a broken mass on the dustheap outside the verger’s lodge.21.“And there the matter rested. “ in the first paragraph probably means the sullen stone figureA.was considered a lost soul.B.was considered a demon.C.has aroused great controversy.D.was inconspicuous in the corner.正确答案:A解析:本题是语义理解题。
