南京农业大学英汉互译2004真题
南京农业大学2004年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试试题试题编号:433 试题名称:英汉互译注意:答题一律答在答题纸上,答在草稿纸或试卷上一律无效I. Translate the following into English (每小题15分,共75)1.通信卫星系统在过去的几十年中取得了很大的成功,已引起人们对其未来的广泛关注。
一些国家正在采用卫星来发展国内的通信,以取代传统的陆地电话线。
但是,卫星的研制,发射和运转的成本很高,超出了一些国家的经济承受能力。
尽管如此,通信卫星系统得到越来越多的人的重视和支持。
这种技术在未来会更加普及。
2.我们应该大力恢复和保护森林和土地,减缓人口增长,减轻发展中国家的债务,提高能源效率,开发可再生资源,如水力、太阳能等。
恢复热带森林不仅将保护数以万计的鲜为人知的生物物种,而且有助于吸收大气中的二氧化碳——延缓“温室效应”引起的地球变暖过程。
3.中美两国在社会制度和对外政策上有着本质的区别。
但是,双方同意,各国不论社会制度如何,都应该根据尊重各国主权和领土完整、不侵犯别国、不干涉别国内政、平等互利、和平共处的原则来处理国与国之间的关系。
国际争端应在此基础上予以解决,而不诉诸武力和武力威胁。
4.创造一个品牌需要时间,金钱和市场知识。
一些中国品牌以有竞争力的价位为后盾,已经挤进了国际市场,但是同时也采用了其他战略。
例如“海尔”——中国最负盛名的家用电器生产商,已经明显地从价格战略上转变过来,以产品质量、高效的销售和售后服务来进行竞争。
5.中国民俗文化村是国内第一个荟萃各民族的民间、民俗风情和民居建筑于一园的大型文化游览区。
它坐落在风光秀丽的深圳湾畔,占地18万平方米。
您可以在一日之内,或乘车,或步行,或乘船在村寨里尽情游历。
除了可以了解各民族的建筑风格之外,还可以欣赏和参与各民族的歌舞表演、民族工艺品生产和民族风味食品制作的表演。

南京农业大学考研初试真题之基础英语2004年考研真题
南京农业大学2004 年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试试题试题编号: 327 试题名称:基础英语注意:答题一律答在答题纸上,答在草稿纸或试卷上一律无效Part I Reading Comprehension (60 points) Passage OneDirections:1. Write an outline of the main points covered in the following reading material. (10 points)2. What institutional constraints have been mentioned in this text? As a language learner, what do you think of the role of the individual learner, especially in terms of learner autonomy and learner possibility? (10 points)Over the last quarter of the twentieth century, the (English) language teaching profession has undergone many changes. One interesting example of this is the role of materials, and in particular, in the nature of course book provision. The market for‘main courses’ has grown enormously, and the top five course book series, in Britain alone, generate very large sales indeed. Responding to these greater rewards for producing successful courses, the series themselves have changed dramatically. Book now contain far more material, with ‘multi’ syllabuses (Swan and Walter 1984-87) as well as extensive accompanying material. In addition, the professionalism of the publishing process means that those series which are published have survived a rigorous monitoring and piloting schedule which is likely to have caused significant rejection of unsatisfactory material and revision of almost everything which remains. All this, of course, represents a significant advance. It is difficult not to conclude that the materials which are now available are not simply more extensive but are also of better quality than their predecessors. In some ways these developments have rendered out-of-date an interesting exchange on the value of language teaching materials. Allwright (1981) argued that commercial materials are a juggernaut which are stifling for the individual and the mediating contributions that can be made by the teacher. In contrast, O’Neill (1982) argued that it is better to use professional materials than those produced under difficult circumstances by amateurs. The debate was nicely balanced, with each party making unanswered points, and the conclusion being a difficult one to draw. So it is all the more striking that since then the O’Neill position has seemed to prevail by default. Since the time of the debate we have seen an astonishing growth in accepted importance of a relatively small number of well produced course book series, with the result that the position that Allwright argued so cogently has been marginalized.This, of course, leads us to consider the price that we have had to pay for such progress. Clearly, a central factor underlying publisher behavior is to maximize。

ThereaboutsPart Ⅵ READING COMPREHENSION [30 MIN.]SECTION A READING COMPREHENSION [25 MIN.]In this section there are four passages followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer.?Mark your answers on your answer sheet.??TEXT AIt often happens that a number of applicants with almost identical qualifications and experience all apply for the same position. In their educational background, special skills and work experience, there is little, if anything, to choose between half a dozen candidates. How then does the employer make a choice? Usually on the basis of an interview.? There are many arguments for and against the interview as a selection procedure. The main argument against it is that it results in a wholly subjective decision. As often as not, emplyers do not choose the best candidate, they choose the candidate who makes a good first impression on them. Some employers, of course, reply to this argument by saying that they have become so experienced in interviewing staff that they are able to make a sound assessment of each candidate’s likely perfor mance.? The main argument in favour of the interview — and it is, perhaps, a good argument —is that an employer is concerned not only with a candidate’s ability, but with the suitability of his or her personality for the particular work situation. Many employers, for example, will overlook occasional inefficiencies from their secretary provided she has a pleasant personality.?It is perhas true to say, therefore, that the real purpose of an interview is not to assess the assssable aspects of each candidate but to make a guess at the more intangible things, such as personality, character andsocial ability. Unfortunately, both for the employers and applicants for jobs, there are many people of great ability who simply do not interview well. There are also, of course, people who interview extremely well, but are later found to be very unsatisfactory employees.? Candidates who interview well tend to be quietly confident, but never boastful; direct and straightforward in their questions and answers; cheerful and friendly, but never over-familiar; and sincerely enthusiastic and optimistic. Candidates who interview badly tend to be at either end of the spectrum of human behaviour. They are either very shy or over-confident. They show either a lack of enthusiasm or an excess of it. They either talk too little or never stop talking. They are either over-polite or rudely abrupt.?66.We can infer from the passage that an employer might tolerate his secretary’s occasional mistakes, if the latter is ____?A. direct.B. cheerful.C. shy.D. capable.?67.What is the author’s attitude towards the interview as a selection procedure?A. Unclear.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.68.According to the passage, people argue over the interview as a selection procedure mainly because they have ____.?A. different selection procedures?B. different puposes in the interview?C. different standards for competence?D. different experiences in interviews?69.The purpose of the last paragraph is to indicate ____.?A. a link between success in interview and personality?B. connections between work abilities and personality?C. differences in interview experience?D. differences in personal behaviourTEXT BEvery year thousands of people are arrested and taken to court for shop-lifting. In Britain alone, about HK$3,000,000’s worth of goods are stolen from shops every week. This amounts to something like HK$150 million a year, and represents about 4 per cent of the shops’ total stock. As a result of this “shrinkage” as the sho ps call it, the honest public has to pay higher prices.?Shop-lifters can be divided into three main categories: the professionals, the deliberate amateur, and the people who just can’t help themselves. The professionals do not pose much of a problem for the store detectives, who, assisted by closed circuit television, two-way mirrors and variousother technological devices, can usually cope with them. The professionals tend to go for high value goods in parts of the shops where security measures are tightest. And, in any case, they account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop-lifting.?The same applies to the deliberate amateur who is, so to speak, a professional in training. Most of them get caught sooner or later, and they are dealt with severely by the courts.?The real problem is the person who gives way to a sudden temptation and is in all other respects an honest and law-abiding citizen. Contrary to what one would expect, this kind of shop-lifter is rarely poor. He does not steal because he needs the goods and cannot afford to pay for them. He steals because he simply cannot stop himself. And there are countless others who, because of age, sickness or plain absent-mindedness, simply forget to pay for what they take from the shops. When caught, all are liable to prosecution, and the decision whether to send for the police or not is in the hands of the store manager.?In order to prevent the quite incredible growth in ship-lifting offences, some stores, in fact, are doing their best to separate the thieves from the confused by prohibiting customers from taking bags into the store. However, what is most worrying about the whole problem is, perhaps, that it is yet another instance of the innocent majority being penalized and inconvenienced because of the actions of a small minority. It is the aircraft hijack situation in another form. Because of the possibility of one passenger in a million boarding an aircraft with a weapon, the other 999,999 passengers must subject themselves to searches and delays. Unless the situation in the shops improves, in ten years’ time we may all have to subject ourselves to a body-search every time we go into a store to buy a tin of beans!?70.Why does the honest public have to pay higher prices when they go to the shops?A. There is a “shrinkage” in market values.?B. Many goods are not available.?C. Goods in many shops lack variety.?D. There are many cases of shop-lifting.?71.The third group of people steal things because they ____?A. are mentally ill.B. are quite absent-minded.?C.can not resist the temptation.D. can not afford to pay for goods.?72.According to the passage, law-abiding citizens ____.?A. can possibly steal things because of their poverty?B. can possibly take away goods without paying?C. have never stolen goods from the supermarkets?D. are difficult to be caught when they steal things?73.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the main types of shop-lifting??A. A big percentage of the total losses are caused by the professionals.?B. The deliberate amateurs will be punished severely if they get caught.?C. People would expect that those who can’t help themselves are poor.?D. The professionals don’t cause a lot of trouble to the store detectives.?74.The aircraft hijack situation is used in order to show that ____.?A. “the professionals do not pose much of a problem for the stores”?B. some people “somply forget to pay for what they take from the shops”?C. “the honest public has to pay higher prices”?D. the third type of shop-lifters are dangerous peopleTEXT CMy bones have been aching again, as they often do in humid weather. They ache like history: things long done with, that still remain as pain. When the ache is bad enough it keeps me from sleeping. Every night I yearn for sleep, I strive for it; yet it flutters on ahead of me like a curtain. There are sleeping pills, of course, but the doctor has warned me against them.?Last night, after what seemed hours of damp turmoil, I got up and crept slipperless down the staris, feeling my way in the faint street light that came through the window. Once safely arrived at the bottom, I walked into the kitchen and looked around in the refrigerator. There was nothing much I wanted to eat: the remains of a bunch of celery, a blue-tinged heel of bread, a lemon going soft. I’ve fallen into the habits of the solitary; my meals are snatched and random. Furtive snacks, furtive treats and picnics. I made do with some peanut butter, scooped directly from the jar with a forefinger: why dirty a spoon??Standing there with the jar in one hand and my finger in my mouth, I had the feeling that someone was about to walk into the room — some other woman, the unseen, valid owner — and ask me what in hell I was doing in her kitchen. I’ve had i t before, the sense that even in the course of my most legitimate and daily actions —peeling a banana, brushing my teeth — I am trespassing.?At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s. I wandered through the front room, the dining room, the parlour, hand on the wall for balance. My various possessions were floating in their own pools of shadow, denying my ownership of them. I looked them over with a burglar’s eye, deciding what might be worth the risk of stealing, what on the otherhand I would leave behind. Robbers would take the obvious things — the silver teapot that was my grandmother’s, perhaps the hand-painted china. The television set. Nothing I really want.75.The author could not fall asleep because ____.?A. it was too damp in the bedroom?B. she had run out of sleeping pills?C. she was in very poor health?D. she felt very hungry?76.The author did not like the food in the refrigerator because it was NOT ____.A. freshB. sufficient?C. nutritiousD. delicious?77.By “At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s”(Line 1, Para. 4), the author probably means that ____.?A. the house was too dark at night?B. ther were unfamiliar rooms in the house?C. she felt much more lonely at night?D. the furniture there didn’t belong to her?TEXT DThe chief problem in coping with foreign motorists is not so much remembering that they are different from yourself, but that they are enormously variable. Cross a frontier without adjusting and you can be in deep trouble.?One of the greatest gulfs separating the driving nations is the Atlantic Ocean. More precisely, it is the mental distance between the European and the American motorist, particularly the South American motorist. Compare, for example, an English driver at a set of traffic lights with a Brazilian.?Very rarely will an Englishman try to anticipate the green light by moving off prematurely. You will find the occasional sharpie who watches for the amber to come up on the adjacent set of lights. However, he will not go until he receives the lawful signal. Brazilians view the thing quite differently. If, in fact, they see traffic lights at all, they regard them as a kind of roadside decoration.?The natives of North America are much more disciplined. They demonstrate this in their addiction to driving in one lane and sticking to it —even if it means settling behind some great truck for many miles.?To prevent other drivers from falling into reckless ways, American motorists try always to stay close behind the vehicle in front which canmake it impossible, when all the vehicles are moving at about 55 mph, to make a real lane change. European visitors are constantly falling into this trap. They return to the Old World still flapping their arms in frustration because while driving in the State in their car they kept failing to get off the highway when they wanted to and were swept along to the next city.?However, one nation above all others lives scrupulously by its traffic regulations —the Swiss. In Switzerland, if you were simply to anticipate a traffic light, the chances are that the motorist behind you would take your number and report you to the police. What is more, the police would visit you; and you would be convicted.? The Swiss take their rules of the road so seriously that a diver can be ordered to appear in court and charged for speeding on hearsay alone, and very likely found guilty. There are slight regional variations among the French, German and Italian speaking areas, but it is generally safe to assume that any car bearing a CH sticker will be driven with a high degree of discipline.?78.The fact that the Brazilians regard traffic lights as a kind of roadside decoration suggests that ____.?A. traffic lights are part of street sceneryB. they simply ignore traffic lights?C. they want to put them at roadsidesD. there are very few traffic lights?79. The second and third paragraphs focus on the difference between ____.?A. the Atlantic Ocean and other oceansB. English drivers and American drivers?C. European drivers and American driversD. European drivers and South American drivers?80.The phrase “anticipate the green light”(Line 1, Para. 3) is closest in meaning to ____.A. wait for the green light to be onB. forbid others to move before the green light?C. move off before the green light is onD. follow others when the green light is onSECTION B SKIMMING AND SCANNING [5 MIN.]In this section there are seven passages with a total of ten multiple-choice questions. Skim or scan them as required and then mark your answers on your answer sheet.??TEXT EFirst read the following question.?81.This paper will mainly discuss ____?A. China’s economic policies in general.?B. China’s special economic zones.?C. significance of investment in China.?D. China’s recent development.??Now, go through TEXT E quickly and answer question 81.?Over the past decade, there have been a lot of changes in China’s economic policies.

Have they really played an important role in the development of significance of these zones? Have they really played an important role in the development of the economy of China?

That's equivalent to two football fields. An area the size of New York City is lost every day. In a year, that adds up to 31 million hectares -- more than the land area of Poland. This alarming rate of destruction has serious consequences for the environment; scientists estimate, for example, that 137 species of plant, insect or animal become extinct every day due to logging. In British Columbia, where, since 1990, thirteen rainforest valleys have been clear cut, 142 species of salmon have already become extinct, and the habitats of grizzly bears, wolves and many other creatures are threatened. Logging, however, provides jobs, profits, taxes for the government and cheap products of all kinds for consumers, so the government is reluctant to restrict or control it.Much of Canada's forestry production goes towards making pulp and paper. According to the Canadian Pulp and Paper Association, Canada supplies 34% of the world's wood pulp and 49% of its newsprint paper. If these paper products could be produced in some other way, Canadian forests could be preserved. Recently, a possible alternative way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp.Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousands of years. It produces fibre which can be made into paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope. For many centuries, it was essential to the economies of many countries because it was used to make the ropes and cables used on sailing67been possiblewithout hemp. Nowadays, ships' fibres, but scientists are now suggesting that production of paper and pulp. According to produced from land using hemp rather than drug, but also of the commercial fibre-producing hemp plant. Although both George Washington and Thomas Jefferson grew hemp in large quantities on their own land, any American growing the plant today would soon find himself in prison -- despite the fact that marijuana cannot be produced from the hemp plant, since it contains almost no THC (the active ingredient in the drug).In recent years, two major movements for legalization have been gathering strength. One group of activists believes that all cannabis should be legal -- both the hemp plant and the marijuana plant -- and that the use of the drug marijuana should not be an offense. They argue that marijuana is not dangerous or addictive, and that it is used by large numbers of people who are not criminals but productive members of society. They also point out that marijuana is less toxic than alcohol or tobacco. The other legalization movement is concerned only with the hemp plant used to produce fibre; this group wants to make it legal to cultivate the plant and sell the fibre for paper and pulp production. This second group has had a major triumph recently: in 1997, Canada legalized the farming of hemp for fibre. For the first time since 1938, hundreds of farmers are planting this crop, and soon we can expect to see pulp and paper produced from this new source.51.

Instead, the video will play at a rate of one or two frames per second, as compared with more than 20 frames per second for real TV .The programs on most of the MobiTV channels will The announcement brings at least one cellular carrier a step closer to transforming the over-hyped concept of next-generation wireless services to reality.Multimedia services such as Web browsing, music and video have been held up by limitations in the capabilities of both handsets and wireless networks. But ongoing improvements in the phones and network technology are now enabling richer content.Still, both Sprint and MobiTV provider Idetic Inc. were careful to not to set expectations for the new service too high."This isn't the kind of thing where you're going to watch a movie, but it is the kind of thing where the frame rate is fine" for viewing a program such as a newscast, said Paul Scanlan, a co-founder of Idetic. He also cautioned that normal limitations of mobile phone use will still apply."It's still cell phone technology, so just like you may get disconnected on a phone call, you could lose the program. If you don't have good reception for a phone call, you're not going to be able to get good reception (for MobiTV)."While wireless technology is expected to improve enough to provide full-motion streaming video as soon as next year, some handset makers are also trying to bring video to cell phones without the cellular network: Samsung is due to introduce a cell phone with a TV tuner inside that can pick up local television channels over the broadcast airwaves.Sprint and other wireless carriers are hoping enhanced features like MobiTV will fuel far greater usage of subscription data services, helping cover their hefty investment in wirelessspectrum and network upgrades -- and eventually driving profits. At the end of September, about 2.7 million of Sprint's 17.8 million cell phone customers also subscribed to the company's wireless online service, PCS Vision.MobiTV was developed and operated by Idetic Inc., a privately held technology company based in Berkeley, California.56.The style of this message is that ofA. market surveyB.news reportC. academic researchD. scientific paper57.The program on most of the MobiTV channels will be identical to the actual programs playingat that hour on the corresponding cable channels, but …A.it processes and transmits fasterB. it processes and transmits slowerC.it takes much more timeD. it takes much less time58.“It’s still cell phone technology” means:A.If you don’t have good reception for a phone call, you may get disconnected.B. If you have good connection for a phone call, you will be able to call.C.If you don’t have good reception for a MobilTV, you will still be connected.D.If you have good reception for a MobiTV, you will get connected.59.The word “fuel” in the first sentence of paragraph two from the bottom means:A. take in fuelB.provide fuelC.accelerate the workD.produce atomic power60.The present situation of the cell phone screen is thatA.it displays programs in a continuous streamB.it shows the full-motion video like that seen on televisionC.it exhibits the audio programsD.it reveals video at a rate of less framesPassage FourOur Way of Life Makes Us MiserableErich FrommMost Americans believe that our society of consumption –happy, fun-loving, jet-traveling people creates the greatest happiness for the greatest number. Contrary to this view, I believe that our present way of life leads to increasing anxiety, helplessness and, eventually, to the disintegration of our culture. I refuse to identify fun with pleasure, consumption with joy, busyness with happiness, or the faceless, buck-passing “organization man” with an independent individual.From this critical view our rates of alcoholism, suicide and divorce, as well as juvenile delinquency, gang rule, acts of violence and indifference to life, are characteristic symptoms of our9“pathology of normalcy.” It may be argued that all these pathological phenomena exist because we have not yet reached our aim, that of an affluent society. It is true, we are still far from being an affluent society. But the material progress made in the last decades allows us to hope that our system might eventually produce a materially affluent society. Yet will we be happier then? The example of Sweden, one of the most prosperous, democratic and peaceful European countries, is not very encouraging: Sweden, as is often pointed out, in spite of all its material security has among the highest alcoholism and suicide rates in Europe, while a much poorer country like Ireland ranks among the lowest in these respects. Could it be that our dream that material welfare per se leads to happiness is just a pipe dream?Certainly the humanist thinkers of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, who are our ideological ancestors, thought that the goal of life was the full unfolding of a person’s potentialities; what mattered to them was the person who is much, not one who has much or uses much. For them economic production was a means to the unfolding of man, not an end. It seems that today the means have become ends, that not only “God is dead,’ as Nietzsche said in the nineteenth century, but also man is dead; that what is alive are the organizations, the machines, and that man has become their slave rather than being their master.Each society creates its own type of personality by its way of bringing up children in the family, by its system of education, by its effective values (that is, those values that are rewarded rather than only preached). Every society creates the type of “social character” which is needed for its proper functioning. It forms men who want to do what they have to do. What kind of men does our large-scale, bureaucratized industrialism need?It needs men who cooperate smoothly in large groups, who want to consume more and more, and whose tastes are standardized and can be easily influenced and anticipated it needs men who feel free and independent, yet who are willing to be commanded, to do what is expected, to fit into the social machine without friction, men who can be guided without force, led without leaders, prompted without an aim except the aim to be on the move, to function, to go ahead.Modern industrialism has succeeded in producing this kind of man. He is the “alienate” man. He is alienated in the sense that his actions and his own forces have become estranged from him; they stand above him and against him, and rule him rather than being ruled by him. His life forces have been transformed into things and institutions, and these things and institutions have become idols. They are something apart from him, which he worships and to which he submits. Alienated man bows down before the works of his own hands. He experiences himself not as the active bearer of his own forces and riches but as an impoverished “thing’, dependent on other things outside of himself. He is the prisoner of the very economic and political circumstances which he has created.Since our economic organization is based on continuous and ever-increasing consumption (think of the threat to our economy if people did not buy a new car until their old one was really obsolete), contemporary industrial man is encouraged to be consumption-crazy. Without any real enjoyment, he “takes in” drink, food, cigarettes, sights, lectures, books, movies, television any new kind of gadget. The world has become one great maternal breast, and man has become the eternal suckling, forever expectant, forever disappointed.In general, our society is becoming one of giant enterprises directed by a bureaucracy in which man becomes a small, well-oiled cog in the machinery. The oiling is done with higher wages, fringe benefits, well-ventilated factories and piped music, and by psychologists and10“human relations’ experts; yet all this oiling does not alter the fact that man has become powerless, that he does not wholeheartedly participate in his work and that he is bored with it. In fact, the blue-and the white-collar workers have become economic puppets who dance to the tune of automated machines and bureaucratic management.The worker and employee are anxious, not only because they might find themselves out of a job (and with installment payments due); they are anxious also because they are unable to acquire any real satisfaction or interest in life. They live and die without ever having confronted the fundamental realities of human existence as emotionally and intellectually productive, authentic and independent human beings.Those higher up on the social ladder are no less anxious. Their lives are no less empty than those of their subordinates. They are even more insecure in some respects. They are in a highly competitive race. To be promoted or to fall behind is not only a matter of salary but even more a matter of self-esteem. When they apply for their first job, they are tested for intelligence as well as for the right mixture of submissiveness and independence. From that moment on they are tested again and again —by the psychologists, for whom testing is a big business, and by their superiors, who judge their behavior, sociability, capacity to get along, etc., their own and that of their wives. This constant need to prove that one is as good as or better than one’s fellow-competitor creates constant anxiety and stress, they very causes of unhappiness and psychosomatic illness.The “organization man’ may be well fed, well amused and well oiled, yet he lacks a sense of identity because none of his feelings or his thoughts originates within himself; none is authentic. He has no convictions, either in politics, religion, philosophy or in love. He is attracted by the “latest model” in thought, art and style, and lives under the illusion that the thoughts and feelings which he has acquired by listening to the media of mass communication are his own.He has a nostalgic longing for a life of individualism, initiative and justice, a longing that he satisfies by looking at Westerns. But these values have disappeared from real life in the world of giant corporations, giant state and military bureaucracies and giant labor unions. He, the individual, feels so small before these giants that he sees only one way to escape the sense of utter insignificance: He identifies himself with the giants and idolizes them as the true representatives of his own human powers, those of which he has dispossessed himself. His effort to escape his anxiety takes other forms as well. His pleasure in a well-filled freezer may be one unconscious way of reassuring himself. His passion for consumption—from television to sex—is still another symptom, a mechanism which psychiatrists often find in anxious patients who go on an eating or buying spree to evade their problems.The man whose life is centered around producing, selling and consuming commodities transforms himself into a commodity. He becomes increasingly attracted to that which is man-made and mechanical, rather than to that which is natural and organic. Many men today are more interested in sports cars than in women; or they experience women as a car which one can cause to race by pushing the right button. Altogether they expect happiness is a matter of finding the right button, not the result of a productive, rich life, a life which requires making an effort and taking risks. In their search for the button, some go to the psychoanalyst, some go to church and some read “self-help” books. But while it is impossible to find the button for happiness, the majority are satisfied with pushing the buttons of cameras radios, television sets, and watching science fiction becoming reality.One of the strangest aspects of this mechanical approach to life is the widespread lack of11concern about the danger of total destruction by nuclear weapons; a possibility people are consciously aware of. The explanation, I believe, is that they are more proud of than frightened by the gadgets of mass destruction. Also, they are so frightened of the possibility of their personal failure and humiliation that their anxiety about personal matters prevents them from feeling anxiety about the possibility that everybody and everything may be destroyed. Perhaps total destruction is even more attractive than total insecurity and never ending personal anxiety.Am I suggesting that modern man is doomed and that we should return to the pre-industrial mode of production or to nineteenth century “free enterprise” capitalism? Certainly not. Problems are never solved by returning to a stage which one has already outgrown. I suggest transforming our social system from a bureaucratically managed industrialism in which maximal production and consumption are ends in themselves (in the Soviet Union as well as in the capitalist countries) into a humanist industrialism in which man and the full development of his potentialities —those of love and of reason—are the aims of all social arrangements. Production and consumption should serve only as means to this end, and should be prevented from ruling man.To attain this goal we need to create a Renaissance of Enlightenment and of Humanism. It must be an Enlightenment, however, more radically realistic and critical than that of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. It must be a Humanism that aims at the full development of the total man, not the gadget man, not the consumer man, not the organization man. The aim of a humanist society is the man who loves life, who has faith in life, who is productive and independent. Such a transformation is possible if we recognize that our present way of life makes us sterile and eventually destroys the vitality necessary for survival.Whether such transformation is likely is another matter, but we will not be able to succeed unless we see the alternatives clearly and realize that the choice is still ours. Dissatisfaction with our way of life is the first step toward changing it. As to these changes, one thing is certain: they must take place in all spheres simultaneously —in the economic, the social, the political and the spiritual. Change in only one sphere will lead into blind alleys, as did the purely political French Revolution and the purely economic Russian Revolution. Man is a product of circumstances —but the circumstances are also his product. He has a unique capacity that differentiates him from all other living beings: the capacity to be aware of himself and of his circumstances, and hence to plan and to act according to his awareness.61. According to the author, the present American way of life makes peopleA. carefree.B. anxious.C. independent.D. happy.62. The author suggests that material affluenceA.in itself will not lead to happiness.B.will never be realized.C.has nothing to do with alcoholism and suicide rates.D.is not a goal people should strive for.63.The humanist thinkers of the 18th and 19th centuries held that the goal of life wasA.full development of man’s talents.B.possession of material wealth.C.pursuit of material comforts.D.production of large quantities of goods.64.Modern industrialized society needs men who are12。

Das Jubiläumsfahrzeug- ein silberfarbener New Beetle(注:Beetle: englischer Begriff für Käfer: 甲壳虫)mit 150 PS –wurde im September im mexikanischen Puebla produziert. Konzernchef Ferdinand Piech feiert das Ereignis mit 1500 geladenen Gästen in Berlin. Dabei sei es, so Piech, …reiner Zufall“, dass es sich bei dem 100-millionsten Volkswagen ausgerechnet um ein Nachfolgemodell des legendären(注:legendär: sagenhaft; durch eine Legende bekannt 神话般的,神奇的)Käfers handelte.Ein Zufall freilich, dessen symbolische Bedeutung nicht zu übersehen ist: Mit keinem anderen Fahrzeug ist die Geschichte von VW so eng verknüpft wie mit dem Käfer, der zum ersten Mal im Jahre 1939 auf dem Berliner Automobilsalon präsentiert wurde. Damals träumten Tausende deutscher VW-Sparer(注:VW-Sparer: sie investierten gespartes Geld in den Kauf eines VW-Käfers, den sie nie bekamen 攒钱买甲壳虫车的人)davon, einmal ein solches Auto zu besitzen. HitlersÜberfall auf Polen und der Ausbruch des 2. Weltkriegs zogen ihnen jedoch einen Strich durch die Rechnung. Bis zum Kriegsende 1945 produzierte VW ausschließlich(注:ausschließlich: nur 仅仅)Armeefahrzeuge für die Wehrmacht(注:Wehrmacht: die deutschen Streitkräfte in der Zeit von 1935—1945 1935—1945年德国国防军.)Danach stand das Unternehmen vor dem Aus.Doch bereits 1946 durfte V olkswagen mit britischer Genehmigung wieder zivile(注:zivil: nicht für das Militär bestimmt 民事的)Fahrzeuge bauen. Die Produktion des Käfers konnte endlich anlaufen, und das kuriose Gefährt aus Wolfsburg entwickelte sich rasch zu einem echten Publikumsrenner. Als 1972 der 15-millionste Käfer vom Band lief, hatte er das bis dahin meist gebaute Auto der Welt, das T-Modell von Ford, bereits übertroffen. Kurz danach begann VW mit der Produktion des nicht minder erfolgreichen Golf, von dem bisher ebenfalls schon 19 Millionen Exemplare gebaut wurden.Die Geschichte des VW-Konzerns ist gekennzeichnet durch eine weltweite Expansion(注:Expansion: das rasche Wachsen 快速扩张), die in den letzten Jahren durch den Kauf so nahmhafter Marken wie Skoda, Rolls-Royce, Bentley, Lamborghini oder Bugatti noch an Bedeutung gewonnen hat. Schon in den 50er Jahren hatte der Konzern mit der Gründung von Verkaufsgesellschaften im Ausland begonnen: 1952 in Kanada, 1953 in Brasilien, 1955 in den USA, 1957 in Australien, 1964in Mexiko, 1973 in Negeria. Seit 1982 engagiert sich VW zudem in China, einem Markt, der im Zeitalter der Globalisierung(注:全球化)von größter Wichtigkeit sein wird.Rund um die Welt sind 300,000 Mitarbeiter für VW tätig. V olkswagen, dem in Deutschland die Marken Audi und Porsche angehörigen, ist heute mit Abstand der größte Autohersteller Europas und weltweit die Nummer drei. Ob der New-Beetle ebenso ein Hit sein wird wie der gute alte Käfer, ist allerdings fraglich. Immerhin kann man ihn auch weiterhin heute noch kaufen; denn er wird in Mexiko in geringer Stückzahl produziert.Welche Aussage üher VW ist richtig? Bitte, machen Sie Kreuz!richtig falsch(1)VW ist der erste Autohersteller auf der ganzen Welt. □□(2)VW produziert im Ausland hauptsächlich Käfer. □□(3)VW hat seinen Hauptsitz in Wolfsburg. □□(4)VW ist welt Weit der drittgrößte Autohersteller. □□(5)Von 1939-1945 hat VW nur für die Bundeswehr produziert. □□(Eine Idee ging um die Welt. Was einmal ganz klein begann, hat inzwischen Millionen Freunde in 52 Ländern der Erde gefunden. Die Organisation der deutschen Jugendhergergen, das Deutsche Jugendherbergswerk, besteht jetzt seit mehr als 80 Jahren.)Der Lehrer Richard Schirrmann liebte es, viele Stunden durch die freie Natur zu gehen, also zu wandern. Als er im Sommer des Jahres 1909 mit einer Gruppe unterwegs wat, fand er oft nur schwer einen Platz zum Schlafen. In einer Gewitternacht im August als die Gruppe in einer leeren Schule übernachtete(注:übernachten: nachts nicht bei sich zu Hause, sondern anderswo schlafen 过夜), kam Schirrmann der Gedanke: So wie in jedem Ort eine Schule gibt, so sollte es auch möglichst viele Häuser geben, wo junge Leute übernachten können.Die Idee bei Blitz und Donner gilt heute als Geburtsstunde der Jugendherberge und drei Jahre später wurde dann die erste Jugendherberge in Deutschland eröffnet. Man kann sie allerdings mit den meisten Jugendherbergen von heute kaum noch vergleichen. Wer aber in diese alte Zeit noch einmal zurückschauen will, kann dies in einem Museum tun. Neben Schirrmanns Schulen zum Wandern ist dort auch der große Schlafraum zui sehen, in dem novh die damals übliche unbequemen Betten stehen…Seit einiger Zeit macht das früher eher etwas konservative Jugendherbergswerk auch Reklame für interessante Ferienprogramme und günstige Reisen, mit denen es Familien als Gäste gewinnen will. So können heute in fast jeder zweiten Jugendherberge Familien Unterkunft finden. Mehr als 400,000 Familien haben im letzten Jahr diese Gelegenheit wahrgenommen.Besonders interessant sind die Angebote für Hobby und Freizeit: So bestehen in den meisten Jugendherbergen gute V orraussetzungen für viele Sportarten. Seit kurzem kann man während eines Aufenthalts in einer Jugendherberge auch an Kursen teilnehmen, um z. B. tanzen und schwimmen zu lernen.Eine Jugendherberge bietet sagar Führerscheinkurse (注:einen Führerscheinkurs besuchen (machen) : 学开车)an.Richtig oder falsch? Machen Sie Kreuz!richtig falsch(1)Der Gedanke einer Jugendherberge ist in einer Schule geboren. □□(2)Die Gründung der Jugendherberge ist einem Deutschen zu verdanken. □□(3)Die erste Jugendherberge wurde 1909 in Deutschland gegründet. □□(4)In den Jugendherbergen dürfen nur junge Leute übernachten. □□(5)Jugendherberge gibt es jetzt nicht nur in Deutschland. □□Text 3 Im ExamenIn Berlin lebte ein berühmter Medizinprofessor, der bei seinen Studenten sehr gefürchtet wat. Wenn er V orsitzender in der nächsten Prüfungskommission (注:答辩委员会) werden sollte, dann war stets große Aufregung, denn er war dafür bekannt, daß er die schwierigster Fragen stellte und oft einen Kandidaten durchfallen ließ, wenn dieser nicht die Antwort gab, die der Professor zu hören wünschte. Hatte aber ein Kandidat bei ihm eine Prüfung bestanden, dann brauchte er sich um seine Zukunft keine Sorgen zu machen, denn kein Arzt konnte eine bessere Empfehlung haben als die, von diesem Professor geprüft worden zu sein.Der Professor hielt wieder einmal eine Prüfung ab. Der Kandidat saßvor der Prüfungskommission und schaute etwas ängstlich und nervös den Professor an, der ihm seine kurzen, aber schwierigen Fragen stellte. Zuerst ließ sich der Professor von dem Kandidaten eine bestimmte Krankheit beschreiben. Als der Kandidat die Symptome der Krankheit richtig genannt hatte, fragte der Professor nach dem Heilmittel für diese Krankheit. Auch diese Frage beantwortete der Kandidat richtig. …gut“, sagte der Professor, …und wieviel geben Sie dem Patienten davon?“—…Einen Eßlöffel voll, Herr Professor“, war die Antwort.Während der Prüfungsausschuß(注:考试委员会)über seine Leistung beriet, mußte der Kandidat vor der Tür des Prüfungszimmers warten. Da fiel ihm ein, daßer sich geirrt hatte: ein Eßlöffel voll war ja zu viel! Aufgeregt öffnete er die Tür des Prüfungszimmers und rief: …HerrProfessor! Ich habe mich geirrt! Ein Eßlöffel voll ist zu viel für den Kranken. Er darf nur fünf Tropfen bekommen!“—…Es tut mir leid“, sagte der Professor kurz, …der Patient ist schon gestorben.“Beantworten Sie bitte die folgenden Fragen!(1)Warum war stets große Aufregung, wenn der Proffessor Vorsitzender in der nächstenPrüfungskommission werden sollte?(2)Warum brauchte ein Kandidat sich um seine Zukunft keine Sorgen zu machen, wenn er bei demProfessoren die Prüfung bestanden hatte?(3)Was macht der Kandidat ängstlich und nervös?(4)Was ist die richtige Antwort auf die Frage des Professoren?(5)Was hatte der Kandidat während der Prüfung gemacht?第四题:填空!共30空,15分(请在横线上填入适当的词尾或者不填)Frankfurt, den 30. Mai. Lieb Hans,dein Antwort auf mein Brief hat mich sehr gefreut. So werden wir also unser Ferien gemeinsam auf dem Bauernhof mein Onkels verbringen.Sein Einladung habe ich gestern bekommen. Er lädt dich, dein Bruder und mich auf sein Bauerhof ein. Mein Freude kannst du dir vorstellen. Es war ja schon lange unser Plan, zusammen zu verreisen.Mein Verwandten haben auf ihr Bauernhof allerdings ihr eigene Methode: Mein Onkel verwendet keinen chemischen Dünger. Er düngt sein Boden nur mit dem Mist sein Schafe undKühe. Ebenso macht es sein Frau: Ihr Gemüsegarten düngt sie nur mit natürlichem Dünger. Ihr Gemüse und ihr Obst wachsen völlig natürlich! Sie braucht kein gefährlichen Gifte gegen Unkraut oder Insekten und ihr Obstbäume wachsen und gedeihen trotzdem. Deshalb schmeckenihr Äpfel und Birnen auch besser als unser gekauften Früchte. Ihr Hühner und Gänse laufen frei herum; nur abends treibt sie mein Onkel in ihr Ställe. Dort legen sie Eier und brüten ihrKüken aus.Die Landwirtschaft mein Verwandten ist übrigens sehr modern. Ihr Haushalt versorgen sie mit Warmwasser aus Sonnenenergie; sogar die Wärme der Milch ihr Kühe verwenden sie zum Heizen! Die Maschinen sind die modernsten ihr Dorfes.Herzliche Grüße, dein Klaus第五题:翻译,共2部分,德译中部分15分,中译德部分10分。

PartⅡ Reading Comprehension (55minutes, 40points)Directions:There are four passages in this part.Each of the passages is followed by five Questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWERSHEET with a single line through the center.Passage Oneln ancient Greek,the term euthanasia meant “easy death”.Today euthanasia(安乐死) generally refers to mercy killing,the vo1untary(自愿)ending of the 1ife of someone who is terminally ill.Like abortion,euthanasia has become a legal,medical,and moral issue over which opinion is divided.Euthanasia can be either active or passive. active euthanasia means that a physician or other medical personnel takes an action that will result in death,such as giving an overdose of deadly medicine.Passive euthanasia means letting a patient die for lack of treatment,or stopping the treatment that has begun.Examples of passive euthanasia inc lude taking patients off a breathing machine or removing other 1ife-supp on systems.Stopping the food supply is also considered passive.A good deal of the debate about mercy killing originates from the decision—making process.Who decides whether a patient is to die ?This issue has not been s01V ed 1egally in theUnited States.The matter is 1eft to state law,which usually allows the physician in charge to Suggest the option of death to a patient’s relatives,especially if the patient is brain dead.In an Attempt to make decisions about when their own lives should end,several terminally i11patients in the early 1990s used a controversial suicide device,developed by Dr.Jack Kevorkian,to end their1ives.In parts of Europe,the decision-making process has become very flexible.Even in cases Where the patients are not brain dead,patients have been put to death without their approval at the request of relatives or at the suggestion of physicians.Many cases of passive euthanasia involve o1d people or newborn infants.The principle justifying this practice is that such individuals have “1ife not worthy of life”.In countries where passive euthanasia is not legal,the court systems have proved very tolerant in dealing with medical personnel who practice it in Japan,for example,if physicians follow certainguidelines they may actively carry out mercy killings on hopelessly ill people. Courts have also been some what to1erant of friends or relatives who have assisted terminally ill patients to die.36.A terminally ill patient is one who_______A.gets worse every day B.Can never get well againC.is very seriously mill in the end D.is too ill to want to1ive on37.The difference between active and passive euthanasia is whether______A.there is an action that speeds up the death of the patientB.the breathing machine is taken off the patientC.an overdose of deadly medicine is usedD.the patient is denied food supply38.According to the passage,who has /have the legal responsibility to decide on euthanasia? A.The national or state government.B.The patient’s relatives.C.Physicians in Charge of the patient.D.The answer varies from country to country.39.The principle justifying passive euthanasia in Europe is that terminally i11 patients are______A.1iving a life without consciousnessB.1iving a life that can hardly be called lifeC.too old or too weak to live onD. too old or too young to approve of euthanasia40. The attitude of the writer toward euthanasia isA. negativeB. positiveC. objectiveD. casualPassage TwoNext week, as millions of families gather for their Thanksgiving feasts, many other Americans will go without. According to the United States Department of Agriculture, more than 12 million households lack enough food for everyone in their family at some time during the year-including holidays.Hunger is surprisingly widespread in our country-one of the world’s wealthiest-yet thegovernment estimates that we waste almost 100 billion pounds of food each year, more than one-quarter of our total supply.Reducing this improper distribution of resources is a goal of America’s Second Harvest, the nation’s largest domestic hunger-relief organization. Last year, it distributed nearly 2 billion pounds of food to more than 23 million people in need.America’s Second Harvest is a network of 214 inter-connected food banks and other organizations that gather food from growers, processors, grocery stores and restaurants. In turn, the network distributes food to some 50,000 soup kitchens, homeless shelters and old people’s centers in every county of every state.A great deal of work is involved in distributing tons of food from thousand of donors(捐赠)to hundreds of small, nonprofit organizations. Until a few years ago, America’s Second Harvest lacked any effective way to manage their inventory. Without accurate and timely information, soup kitchens were sometimes empty while food was left to spoil in loading places.In 2000, America’s Second Harvest began to use a new inventory and financial-management system-Ceres. It is software designed specifically for hunger-relief operations. It is used by more than 100 America’s Second Harvest organizations to track food from donation to distribution. Ceres has helped reduce the spoiling of food and improve distribution. An evaluation found that the software streamlined food banks’ op erations by 23 percent in the first year alone.With more accurate and timely reports, Ceres saves time, flees staff members to focus on finding new donors, and promises more efficient use of donations.Hunger in America remains a troubling social problem. Technology alone cannot solve it. But in the hands of organizations such as America’s Second Harvest, it is a powerful tool that is helping to make a difference-and helping more Americans to join in the feast.41. According to the passage, the total supply of food in America every year reachesA. 12 million poundsB. more than 12 million poundsC. almost 100 billion poundsD. about 400 billion pounds42. By “this improper distribution of resources” in Paragraph 3, the writer means that many Americans lack enough food whileA. their country is one of the richest in the worldB. much food is left to spoilC. others waste too much foodD. others consume too much food43. A problem for America’s Second Harvest a few years ago was thatA. it did not get enough food from donorsB. it did not have a large enough networkC. it did not have enough soup kitchensD. it did not have a good way to manage its food stock44. With Ceres, America’s Second Harvest is now able toA. enlarge its networkB. prevent food from spoilingC. give out food more efficientlyD. solve the hunger problem in the country45. The main idea of the passage is thatA. technology can help in the fight against hungerB. America’s Second Harvest has found more donorsC. America’s Second Har vest promotes the development of technologyD. hunger is a problem even in the wealthiest country in the worldPassage ThreeThe differences in living standards around the world are vast.In 1993,the average American had an income of about$25,000.In the same year,the average Mexican earned$7,000,and the average Nigerian camed$1,500,Not surprisingly,this large variation in average income is reflected in various measures of the quality of life.Changes in living standards over time are also 1arge.In the United States,incomes have historically grown about 2 percent per year(after adjusting for changes in the cost of living).At this rate,average income doubles every 35years.In some countries,economic growth has been even more rapid.In Japan,for instance,average income has doubled in the past 20 years,and in South Korca it has doubled in the past 10 years.What explains these 1arge differences in 1iving standards among countries and over time? The answer is surprisingly Simple.A1most a11 variation in 1iving standards is attributable to differences in countries’ productivity-----that is,the amount of goods and services produced fromeach hour of a worker's time.In nations where workers can produce a large quantity of goods and services per unit of time,most people enjoy a high standard of living;in nations where workers are less productive,most people must endure a more meager existence.Similarly,the growth rate of a nation's productivity determines the growth rate of its average income.The fundamental relationship between productivity and living standards is simple,but its implications are far-reaching.If productivity is the primary determinant of livings standards,other explanations must be of secondary importance.For example,people might think that labor unions or minimum-wage 1aws contributed to the rise in 1iving standards of American workers over the past century. Y et the real hero of American workers is their rising productivity.The relationship between productivity and living standards also has great implications for public po1icy.When thinking about how any policy will affect living standards,the key question is how it will affect our ability to produce goods and services.To improve living standards,po1icy makers need to raise productivity by ensuring that workers are well educated,have the too1s needed to produce goods and services,and have access to the best available technology.46.Which of the following countries has enjoyed the fastest economic growth in history? A.Mexico.B.The United States .C.Japan.D.South Korea .47.The word “meager”in the second paragraph is closest in meaning to“__________”.A.modest B.poor C.meaningless D.plentiful48.What is the most important factor that leads to the rise in living standards of average people? A.Labor unions.B.Minimum-wage laws .C.Rising productivity.D.Favorable publicpo1icy.49.The study of the relationship between productivity and 1iving standards is significant inthat_________.A.it calls po1icy makers’attention to a qualified work forceB.it encourages workers to get better education.C.it helps improve the workers’ability to produce goods and servicesD.it enables policy makers to access the latest technology50.The passage mainly discusses____________A.the differences in average income among countriesB.the relationships between productivity and living standardsC.th causes of the rise in living standardsD.the importance of raising productivity.Passage FourNot so long ago almost any student who successfully completed a university degree could find a good career quite easily. Companies toured the academic institutions, competing with each other to select graduates. However, those days are gone, even in Hong Kong, and nowadays graduates often face strong competition in the search for jobs.Most careers organizations highlight three stages for graduates to follow in the process of securing a suitable career: recognizing abilities, matching these to available jobs and presenting them well to possible employers.Job seekers have to make a careful assessment of their own abilities. One area of assessment should be of their academic qualifications, which would include special skills within their subject area. Graduates should also consider their own personal values and attitudes. An honest assessment of personal interests and abilities such as creative skills, or skills acquired from work experience, should also be given careful thought.The second stage is to study the opportunities available for employment and to think about how the general employment situation is likely to develop in the future. To do this, graduates can study job and position information in newspapers, or they can visit a careers office, write to possible employers for information or contact friends or relatives who may already be involved in a particular profession. After studying all the various options, they should be in a position to make informed comparisons between various careers.Good personal presentation is essential in the search for a good career. Job application forms and letters should, of course, be filled in carefully and correctly, without grammar or spelling errors. Where additional information is asked for, job seekers should describe their abilities and work experience in more depth, with examples if possible. They should try to balance their own abilities with the employer's needs, explain why they are interested in a career with the particular company and try to show that they already know something about the company and its activities.When graduates go to an interview, they should prepare properly by finding out all they can aboutthe possible employer. Dressing suitably and arriving for the interview on time are also important. Interviewees should try to give positive and helpful answers and should not be afraid to ask questions about anything they are unsure about. This is much better than pretending to understanda question and giving an unsuitable answer.51. "Those days are gone, even in Hong Kong" in Paragraph 1 suggests thatA. finding a good career used to be easier in Hong Kong than elsewhereB. now everyone in Hong Kong has an equal chance of finding a good jobC. graduates now face stronger competition in Hong Kong than elsewhereD. even in Hong Kong companies tour universities trying to select graduates52. It is implied in Paragraph 3 that graduates shouldA. aim to give a balanced account of what the employer needsB. consider careers which suit their values, interests and abilitiesC. recognize their own abilities regardless of what the employer looks forD. stress their personal attitudes and values in job applications53. According to Paragraph 4, graduates shouldA. find a good position and then compare it with other careersB. ask friends or relatives to secure them a good jobC. get information about a number of careers before making comparisonsD. study the opportunities and the kinds of training that will be available54. In the last paragraph, the writer seems to suggest thatA. interviewees should appear humble if they can't give an answerB. dressing properly is more important than being able to give an answerC. it is better for interviewees to be honest than to pretend to understandD. it is a good idea for interviewees to be boastful in their answers55. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true?A. Until recently it was quite easy for graduates to get good jobs in Hong Kong.B. Job seekers should consider as many related factors as possible.C. Businesses used to visit the universities in Hong Kong to select graduates.D. Graduates used to compete with each other for a good job in Hong Kong.Part IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 5 points).Adult education is the practice of teaching and educating adults. This is often done in the workplace, or 56 "continuing education" courses at secondary schools, or at a college or university.Educating adults differs from educating 57 in several ways. One of the most important 58 is that adults have gained knowledge and experience which can 59 add value to a learning experience or interfere with it.Another important difference is that adults frequently must apply their knowledge in some 60 fashion in order to learn effectively: there must be a 61 and a reasonable expectation that the new knowledge will help them further that goal. One example, 62 in the 1990s, was the spread of computer training courses in 63 adults, most of them office workers, could enroll. These courses would teach basic use of the operating system or specific application 64. Because the skills 65 to interact with a PC were so new, many people who had been working white-collar jobs for ten years or more eventually took such training courses, either of their own will(to gain computer skills and thus can higher pay)or at the request of their managers.56.

This is a very good thing. If I'm working with a colleague and want to send him an image file or a word file, I can do so very quickly and easily, without having to fax it to him. This saves on long distance bills and printing costs. It also, however, presents a problem, because attachments can take a long time to download. For those of us who pay by the hour for Internet service, unwanted attachments can be quite costly and time-consuming. I once had someone send me fifteen large image files, and it tied up my computer for 20 minutes just to download one of them. So, in short, if you're going to send an attachment, get permission first.Part VI Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: Y ou are to write in no less than 120 words on the title of "College Students Should (Not)Be Permitted to Live Off Campus".
