Researchers have been studying this strange sensation for years, but no definite explanation has been found.Some scientists believe that déjà vu occurs when the brain's memory centers experience a slight delay, causing a mismatch between the actual experience and the memory recall. Others think that déjà vu is a result of a processing error in the brain, where information is mistakenly sent to the memory centers before it is fully processed.12. What is déjà vu?13. What do some scientists believe causes déjà vu?Passage 2The Great Barrier Reef is one of Earth's most remarkable natural wonders. Located off the coast of Queensland, Australia, it spans nearly2,300 kilometers and is home to thousands of species of marine life. It is so large that it can be seen from outer space.The reef is made up of coral formations, which are built over many years by tiny animals called polyps. These structures provide homes and food for countless marine organisms. However, human activities, such as pollution and climate change, have put the Great Barrier Reef at risk. Scientists are working to protect and preserve this precious ecosystem.14. Where is the Great Barrier Reef located?15.

英语专业(语言学)历年真题试卷汇编1英语专业(语言学)历年真题试卷汇编1(总分:50.00,做题时间:90分钟)一、名词解释(总题数:13,分数:26.00)1.Sociolect(中山大学2000年;南开大学2003年研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Dialects which identify where a person is in terms of a social scale are called "social dialects"or "class dialects" or "sociolects" for short.)解析:2.Linguistic variable(北外2011研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Linguistic variables are those where the meaning remains constant but form varies like cat and pussy have the same social meaning but different from. So far as pronunciation is concerned house[h]and with[h]has same social meaning with different pronunciations. Here variables are just the tools to analyze the language to set social dimensional society.) 解析:3.prototype(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Prototype: what members of a particular community think of as the best example of a lexicalcategory, e. g. for some English speakers "cabbage"(rather than say"carrot")might be the prototypical vegetable.)解析:4.conceptual metonymy(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Metonymy is a cognitive process in which one cognitive category, the source, provides mental access to another cognitive category, the target, within the same cognitive domain, or idealized cognitive model(ICM).) 解析:5.iconicity(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:It is a feature of language which means that the structure of language reflects in some way the structure of experience, that is, the structure of the world, including the perspective imposed on the world by the speaker.)解析:6.grammaticalization(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:The process whereby an independent word is shifted to the status of a grammatical element is called grammaticalization. Grammaticalization brings about typical changes in meanings and the distribution of forms. Another characteristic of grammaticalized forms is that the constraints ontheir grammatical uses tend to reflect their lexical histories. Another typical outcome of grammaticalization is the development of different historical levels of nearly equivalent forms.)解析:7.Interlanguage(上海交大2005研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Interlanguage. refers to the type of language constructed by second or foreign language learners who are still in the process of learning a language. It"s a language system between the target language and the learner"s native language, and imperfect compared with the target language, but not mere translation from the learner"s native language. For example, when the Chinese student is learning English, he may make errors like "to touch the society".)解析:8.Universal Grammar(西安交大2008研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Universal grammar is a theory of linguistics postulating principles of grammar shared by all languages, thought to be innate to humans(linguistic nativism). It attempts to explain language acquisition in general, not describe specific languages. Universal grammar proposes a set of rules intended to explain language acquisition in child development.)解析:9.contrastive analysis(浙江大学2004研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Contrastive analysis is an approach to analysis of second language acquisition, based on a belief that a more effective teaching pedagogy would come out when the similarities and differences between native language and target language are taken into consideration. By such an analysis, it is supposed that some leaning difficulties could be predicted in terms of language transfer.)解析:10.Error Analysis(中山大学2011研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Errors are significant in telling the teacher what needs to be taught, in telling the researcher how learning proceeds and those errors are a means whereby learners test their hypotheses about the language to be learnt. They are worth further probing Error Analysis involves, first independently or objectively, describing the learners" interlanguage(that is, their version of the target language and the target language itself), then a comparison of the two is followed to locate mismatches. Different from contrastive analysis, Error Analysis, EA for short, gives less consideration to learners" native language. The procedure of Error Analysis consists of the following steps: (1)Recognition (2)Description (3)Explanation For example, explanation; the absence of an item that must appear in a well-formed utterance: e. g. She sleeping. Type of error; Omissions.)解析:11.applied linguistics (武汉大学2006研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:It is a branch of linguistics which studies the application of linguistics in reality. For example, there are studies on multilingualism, language acquisition, first and second language teaching and learning.)解析:12.the audiolingual method of language teaching(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:It is the teaching of a second language through imitation, repetition, and reinforcement. It emphasizes the teaching of speaking and listening before reading and writing and the use of mother tongue in the classroom is not allowed.) 解析:13.the direct method of language teaching(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:The learning of a second language by using the target language directly and associating speech form with action, gesture, objects and situations. Mother tongue is never or rarely used in the classroom, and the students supposedly acquire the second language in a way similar to the way they acquired their first language.)解析:二、简答题(总题数:12,分数:24.00)14.Linguistics is not the only field concerned with language. Other disciplines such as sociology, psychology, ethnography are also preoccupied with language.(中山大学2008研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:Since language has both individual and social aspects, it is naturally of interest to psychologists and sociologists among others. Many psychologists are interested to investigate the interrelation of language and mind, in processing and producing utterances and in language acquisition for example, language development in the child, such as the theories of language acquisition; biological foundations of language , and a big topic—the relationship between language and cognition, so there are psycholin-guistics. Socialists who are interested in the relations between language and society do researches concerned both sociology and linguistics, including the social functions of language and the social characteristics of its users. When anthropologists enlisted the help of linguists to study unwritten languages, anthropology and linguistics became closely associated in the early days of anthropological fieldwork. In contrast with other linguists, anthropological linguists are interested primarily in the history and structure of formerly unwritten languages. They are concerned with the emergence of language and also with the divergence of languages over thousands of years. Therefore, it is not surprising there are some branches of macrolinguistics that show an interdisciplinary nature.) 解析:15.There are two kinds of grammar based on differentlinguistic points of view. They are prescriptive grammar and descriptive grammar. A grammar may describe how language is actually spoken and/or written, and may not state or postulate how it ought to be spoken or written. But a grammar may also state the rules for what is considered the best or most correct usage. Which grammar is descriptive grammar, and which grammar is prescriptive grammar? Cite some examples to give your reasons.(北师大2003研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________正确答案:(正确答案:The first one is typical of descriptive grammar, while the second one is prescriptive grammar. The descriptive grammar aims to describe how people speak and detail the underlying knowledge. It is believed in descriptive grammar that whatever occurs in natural speech, such as hesitation, incomplete utterance, should be described in the analysis, and not be marked as incorrect, abnormal, or corrupt; modern linguistics is mostly descriptive. Whereas, the prescriptive approach aims to teach people how to speak, read, and write a particular language;in the 18th century, all the main European languages were studied prescriptively. For example, the statement that "in standard English, a double negative is rarely used" is a description, showing how the language is used in standard English, regardless whether it is correct or not. "You should never use a double-negative" is a typical grammar rule that prescribes what should be grammatically correct in the Standard English. As for the spelling, prescription says "judgment" is correct, but description accurately points out that "judgement" is consideredby Edited English to be correct too, and a descriptive account for these two different spellings will show how the later one is used and who uses it.)解析:16.Saussure puts forward the concept of langue and parole, and Chomsky puts forward the concept of competence and performance. Please dwell upon the differences and similarities, if any, of the two pairs; langue and parole /doc/524189031.html,petence and performance.(北京交通大学2007研)(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案:According to F. de Saussure, langue refers to the abstract linguistic system shared by all members of a speech community; while parole refers to the realization of langue in actual use. For Chomsky, a fundamental distinction between linguistic competence and performance should be made. A language user"s underlying knowledge about the system of rules is called linguistic competence. And performance refers to the actual use of language in concrete situations. In light with this, competence enables a speaker to produce and understand an indefinite number of sentences and to recognize grammatical mistakes and ambiguities. A speaker"s competence is stable but his performance is often influenced by psychological and social factors, and thus would involve imperfections such as slips of tongue, false starts, unnecessary pauses, and so on. Thus, the point is that a speaker"s performance does not always match his competence. Saussure"s distinction is somewhat similar with Chomsky"s in the sense that they both refer to the constant factor which underlies theutterances that constitute parole/performance. However, their difference is quite obvious. Saussue"s language is a social product, a set of conventions for a speech community. Chomsky regards competence as a property of the mind of each individual. Saussrue looks at language more from a sociological point of view while Chomsky looks at it more from a psychological point of view.)解析:17.Examine the following two statements about language, and discuss the similarities and differences between them.Do you agree with the two statements? Explain your answer.Sapir(1921: Language):"Language is a purely human and non-instinctive method of communicating ideas,emotions and desires by means of voluntarily produced symbols. "Bloch and Trager(1942; Outline of Linguistic Analysis): "A language is a system of arbitrary vocal symbols by means of which a social group co-operates. "(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案:Similarities;(1)Both definitions stick to the fact that language is primarily a matter of speech because the primary medium of language is sound. Sapir illustrates this idea by implying that the produced symbols are auditory and Bloch and Trager by explicitly using the word " vocal". (2)Both definitions allude to the fact that the association between the words and the things that they denoted is rarely inherent, Sapir by using the word * symbols" and Bloch and Trager by placing emphasis on " arbitrary"and "symbols". Differences: (1)Sapir"s definition emphasize that language relates to communication between human beings. It is very different from the communication systems of other creatures, such as birdsongs and bee dances. Bloch and Trager do not clearly indicate this property, only saying that it is possessed by a social group.(2)Sapir also considers that language is " non-instinctive" and " voluntarily produced". Thus for himlanguage does not include such instinctive forms of communication as smiling and cries of pain, etc. However, Bloch and Trager"s definition do not include this feature. (3)The element " system" in Bloch and Trager"s definition reflects the fact that language provides us with the framework for generating appropriate utterances rather than providing us with an infinite store of ready-made utterances. Still elements of lacunae are combined according to rules. (4)The function of language is indicated differently in two definitions. Sapir sees language as for communicating ideas, emotions and desires, while Bloch and Trager considers it for a social group"s co-operation. Sapir"s definition proposes " communication" as the principal function of language and specifies what is communicated; Bloch and Trager only vaguely points out that language can be used for co-operation. Each of the two definitions has its own special emphasis and it not totally free from limitations. We think the two definitions grasp some defining properties of language that distinguish it from any animal system of communication, for example, " vocal" , " arbitrary" , " symbol" , " purely human" , " a system". But either has some limitation. As for Sapir"s definition, whether one considers language to be instinctive or not is an issue. Language is instinctive in so far as we are all born with a predisposition to speak, we all acquire a language without tuition and when we speak we do not consciously convert our thoughts into speech. Language is, however, non-instinctive in that we can choose what to say or whether to say anything at all. Both thedefinition"s description of language"s function is not precise. Sapir"s definition confines language only to communicating ideas, emotions and desires, and Bloch and Trager"s definition does not point it out at all.)解析:18.It is widely known that animals have their own ways of communicating with each other. For example , bees can dance very complicated dances and some birds can sing very complicated songs. It is also generally agreed that there are fundamental differences between human language and other animals" ways of communicating. i.What is your view on this point? ii. If you also think that there are fundamental differences between human language and other animals" ways of communicating, according to you, what are the differences? Please give short explanations. If you don"t think that there are fundamental differences between human language and other animals" ways of communicating, please also defend your position. Illustrate your points with examples if necessary.(分数:2.00)________________________________________________________________ __________________________ 正确答案:(正确答案:i. There"re fundamental differences between human language and other animal"s ways of communicating. All creatures, not only the "clever" ones like apes and dolphins but also such "lower" ones as bees and birds are able to communicate with each other. We have been careful in using the term "animal communication system" to indicate this ability. But language is human-specific which is not merely a tool used to transmit information but also a means of social communication. Linguists made a list of "design features" , which are found utterly absent in animalcommunication and thus distinguish human language from animal"s cry . ii. There are fundamental differences between human language and other animals" ways of communicating, such as the "design feature" could distinguish human language from other systems of communication. For instance, 1)Duality, animals that use vocal signals have a stock of basic sounds which vary according to species. A cow has less than ten, a chicken has around twenty, but most animals can use each basic sound to stand for one thing only, so the communicative power of animal language is highly limited. However, human language has a number of sound units, or phonemes and each phoneme can become meaningful when it is combined with other phonemes, so we say human language operates on two levels of structures.2)Productivity or Creativity, it means that human beings can produce novel utterances whenever they want. The robin is creative in its ability to sing the same thing in many ways, but not creative in its ability to use the same units of the system to express manydifferent messages with different meanings. 3)Displacement, it is a property of language enabling people to talk about things being remote either in space or in time. Most animals can only communicate about things in the immediate situation.) 解析:解析:(本题主要考查语言的本质特征。

If there were obstacles to be overcome, intellectuals sounded the call and led the reformers' charge. If idealistic visions were the requirements, they provided blueprints for utopians. The twentieth century began with most intellectuals in the United States sanguine about the future of the Western world. The wave of pride and confidence generated by the Renaissance and the Enlightenment still rolled strongly. What a work of art was man! His intellect, disciplined with science, seemed capable of explaining and utilizing every natural process. And the same natural laws that provided the key to the physical world were thought to make possible a social science as well. With liberal application of the oil of natural rights, most Americans confidently expected the social vehicle to run squeakless forever---World War I explored this halcyon vision.The way in which the actual phrase "lost generation" came into being is instructive. While the several accounts vary in details, there is general consensus that the phrase originated with Gertrude Stein, the Radcliffe girl turned Parisian, and the unofficial dean of expatriated American artists and writers in Europe. There is also general agreement that Stein used the phrase in conversation with Ernest Hemingway about 1921. Hemingway's own account in A Moveable Feast is the most complete. Gertrude Stein, he begins, found it necessary to take her Model T Ford to a Paris garage for ignition repairs. Apparently the young mechanic who worked on the car did not fix it satisfactorily or possibly he took too long. Stein, at any rate, protested to the owner of the garage, and he in turn called the mechanic to task. The owner then explained to Stein that all the young workers in his shop lacked skill because they had served in the war and missed the crucial early years of vocational training. At one point in the conversation, according to Hemingway, the garage keeper said of his mechanics, that they were "all a generation perdue." Some time later, Stein applied the phrase to the 23-year-old Hemingway and his friends. Angry at their rowdy, drunken behavior, she saw the connection. “‘That's what you are. That's what you all are,' Miss Stein said, ‘All of you young people who served in the war. You are a lost generation.'” Hemingway evidently w as surprised, the idea had not occurred to him before. “‘Really?'” he asked. “‘You are, 'Stein insisted.‘You have no respect for anything. You drink yourselves to death…'” Hemingway attempted to protest that he was never drunk when he came to Stein salon, but Stein, as usual, had the final word: “ ‘Don't argue with me, Hemingway…It does no good at all. You're all a lost generation, exactly as the garage keeper said.'”ⅡTranslate the following into English (50%)贾平凹: 我是农民一个成功的作家,用饱含深情厚意的笔调,向大家讲述他并不成功的农民生涯, 并平静地对大家说, 我是农民,不是作家. 这个成功的作家就是贾平凹,那个不成功的农民,也是贾平凹.而这部以“讲述”为重要特征的作品名字叫《我是农民----------乡下五年的记忆》.名人大腕为自己贴金写传,这热潮似乎还在持续, 贾平凹此时写此书, 真怀疑他是在有意为大伙儿提供一本教科书.别人在那儿嚷着自己是如何如何‘崇高伟大’, 贾平凹却说: 我是农民.《我是农民》,贾平凹从自己少年求学写起, 写到回乡当农民,写到两次失败的恋情,写到父亲蒙冤,写到当兵不成,写到想当工人还不成,写到想当代课老师仍不成…一个为了与土地割断联系而竭尽全力的农民,一个角落里的梦想家,这就是贾平凹?这就是一手锦绣文章的贾平凹?回答是肯定的.有些自尊,有些自卑,有些遭歧视,但百分之百的是一个性情中人:真诚,坦荡,永不服输,但又常常感到疲惫。

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: Today I’d like to welcome Edward Fox, a seasoned real estate agent, who is going to talk to us about buying a house. Hello, Edward.M: Hello.W: Now Edward, for most people buying a house is a major life event, and probably the single most expensive item they are ever likely to buy. What precautions do they have to take before a real purchase? Can you give some suggestions?M: You are right in saying buying a house costs a lot. But as to me, the most important thing to consider before buying any property is the location.W: Location?M: Right. Because it is where you plan to spend a large part of your life. Or, indeed, the rest of your life in some circumstances. (1) Therefore, consider the type of life you enjoy leading. If you are a very sociable person who enjoys nightclubs and discos, you may consider something close to a city. Anyway, a city is convenient for all types of nightlife.W: Then, for those who seek a quiet life, do you recommend a house in the countryside?M: Well, countryside is a tranquil place. However, do remember that proximity to the place of work also counts. Indeed, we spend most of our life at work, and you don’t want to have to spend two or more hours every day traveling to work, do you? Therefore, transport is of the utmost importance. (2) City suburbs, however, are often conveniently located for commuting to work, or for shopping, without being in the heart of a busy city.W: But houses in the suburbs are far more expensive than those in cities.M: They seem to be. But actually houses located in cities can often exceed the price of suburban houses. So cheek out the prices. You may be surprised.W: Really?(1) So we should consider our places of work and personalities in choosing the location. Is that so?M: I’m afraid you have to take family into consideration as well. You may prefer a house that is away from a busy street or main road. (1) And, of course, remember that children have to attend school: is there a good school in the area, or would your children have to travel a long distance to get to school? Therefore, if you have children, or you plan to have children, location is a very important factor. And, of course, remember that a family influences the size of the property.W: Oh, I see. How many types of houses can we choose?M: There are various types of houses. The first is called detached houses, which stand alone, and are not joined by another building. (3) Then there are semi-detached houses, which are the most common. This is because they are, in fact, two houses joined together, and therefore take up lessspace. And there are town houses, too, which are many houses joined together to form a hmg row. But don’t think that town houses are less expensive than semi-detached houses. They rarely are. This is because they are usually built in cities where the price of property is very expensive.W: Then what about old houses? (4) They must be cheaper than new ones.M: (4) Maybe they are. But if the house is too old, you may be faced with expensive repairs and renovation bills. So have a house thoroughly checked by a professional surveyer before you decide to buy. But then again there are things you can look for yourself. Things such as the condition of the woodwork, especially doors and windows that can be expensive to replace. But more importantly make sure all the fixtures and fittings, things such as cupboards, sinks, taps and bath tubs arc all in good working order because replacing kitchens and bathrooms can he very costly.W: I agree. It’s economical to buy old houses only when they are in good condition. By the way, a lot of property has a garden attached to it. Do you think it’s a good choice?M: It’s true that a lot of property has a garden. If you enjoy gardening, that’s fine. But if you don’t enjoy gardening then you may prefer a small garden, as opposed to a big one. But even if you do enjoy gardening it is important to remember that gardens take up a lot of your time. (5) So keeping a garden in good order may be veU difficult if you work long hours.W: You are quite right. Any other suggestions?M: One final thing is the general feel of the place. Does it have a good atmosphere? And most important of all, would you feel comfortable living there?W: Edward, I never knew I had to consider so many things while buying a house. Thank you very much for talking with us.M: My pleasure.1.According to Edward, in deciding the location of a house, people should consider all the following EXCEPTA.the type of life they enjoy.B.the price of the house.C.the distance between the house and the place of work.D.the school their children can attend.正确答案:B 涉及知识点:听力2.Which of the following is an ideal place for quiet people to live in?A.City.B.Downtown.C.Countryside.D.Suburb.正确答案:D 涉及知识点:听力3.According to the interview, ______ are the most common type of houses.A.detached housesB.semi-detached housesC.town housesD.old houses正确答案:B 涉及知识点:听力4.What does Edward think of old houses compared to new ones?A.They are definitely cheaper.B.They are too old to live in.C.They may be cheaper but repairs and renovation cost much.D.They need to he checked professionally from time to time.正确答案:C 涉及知识点:听力5.Edward shows ______ when talking about gardens attached to houses.A.disapprovalB.excitementC.uncertaintyD.indifference正确答案:A 涉及知识点:听力SECTION C NEWS BROADCASTDirections: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY.

CAAC statistics show that about 11, 000 pilots are employed to fly more than 770 aircraft operated by the major Chinese commercial airlines, which industry experts consider as inadequate to cope with the rocketing demand for passenger services. Around 145 new aircraft will be delivered for operation this year in China, and the new planes alone will push aircraft numbers beyond the capacity of training schools to supply new pilots. (6) Industry experts estimate China needs between 1, 200 and 1, 600 new pilots every year since 2000, while the nation’s major training schools for commercial airline pilots can provide a maximum of 600 pilots annually.6.Industry. experts estimate China needs between ______ and ______ new pilots annually since 2000.A.770; 1,200B.1,200; 1,300C.1,200; 1,600D.1,300; 1,600正确答案:C 涉及知识点:听力听力原文:West Aft’lean leaders say they are cautiously in favor of using genetically modified crops. But non-governmental organizations are calling for a five-year moratorium so more research can be done. The issue is being discussed at a U. S. -sponsored conference in Burkina Faso. During the three-day conference, which started Monday, West African leaders said they want assurances that genetically modified products are safe for the people who eat or use them, and for the environment. (7) But the leaders say that in general they believe the genetically modified crops will lead to higher agricultural productivity and therefore should be used. But non-governmental organizations in West Africa remain unconvinced. A protest by non-governmental organization is planned for Wednesday, when the conference ends.7.West African leaders who want assurances believe the genetically modified crops will lead toA.higher financial earnings.B.more genetically modified crops.C.higher agricultural productivity.D.more genetically modified products.正确答案:C 涉及知识点:听力听力原文:China’s automobile revolution is accelerating; (8) despite efforts by the government to slow what many economists believe is an overheating of its economy. China is the fastest growing ear market in the world, and sales next year are expected to climb 20 percent from last year. Meanwhile, the world’s automakers have announced they will launch massive expansion projects in China. In recent months, banks have started to tighten their lending criteria, in part a response to what analysts say are the government’s efforts to stop China’s rapidly growing economy from overheating, but ear sales are skyrocketing, with many Chinese using their savings to purchase new cars.8.Many economists believe that the fast-paced growth of car market in China is A.a proof of abundance.B.an overheating of its economy.C.an attraction of investment.D.a result of foreign expansion projects.正确答案:B 涉及知识点:听力听力原文:(9) A 12-storey building has collapsed in the Egyptian capitalCairo after a fire in the lower floors.

专业英语八级(阅读)练习试卷1(题后含答案及解析)题型有:1.44% required hospitalization. Based on that data, published in PLoS Medicine, Lipsitch anticipates far fewer deaths from 2009 H1N1than was initially believed. By the end of the flu season in the spring of 2010, Lipsitch predicts, anywhere from 6,000 to 45,000 people will have died from H1N1 in the U.S., with the number most likely to end up between 10,000 and 15,000. Those estimates are far below the death toll of the 1957 flu, which killed 69,800 people in the U.S., according to government figures, and smaller also than the early predictions for the2009 H1N1 flu deaths, which ranged from 30,000 to 90,000. It is not clear, however, that past pandemics are an appropriate gauge for evaluating the current flu or that the new projections are based on complete data. The eventual death toll of 2009 H1N1 may be less grim than the outcomes of previous pandemics, but it should be noted that 90 years ago, and even 40 years ago, health officials lacked the antiviral therapies and nationwide vaccination capabilities that are available today. That may have contributed to pandemics having a more devastating effect on the health of past populations. The new estimates are also less alarming than those provided—also by Lipsitch—to the President’s Council of Advisers on Science and Technology last summer near the start of the pandemic. At the time, researchers had only patchy data on the number of people infected by, and seeking treatment for, the new flu. The initially bleak prediction of the impact of H1N1—with up to 50% of the U.S. population becoming infected in the fall and winter of 2009, resulting in as many as 90,000 deaths—was based on modeling of previous pandemics. Fortunately, the worst case scenario did not come to pass. “The worst case consistent with the data we have now is a lot milder than the worst case consistent with the data we had in the summer or spring,”Lipsitch says. Still, Lipsitch and other health officials acknowledge that the 2009 H1N1 pandemic is not over. What worries health officials most is that as both seasonal and H1N1 flu viruses circulate among the population, the two strains could recombine into a more virulent and aggressive version that could cause more widespread illness and even death. How viruses behave once they nestle into a host is completely unpredictable, but scientists know that in a lab dish, seasonal and H1N1 flu strains mix and match readily. “I’m thinking we may have dodged a bullet here if in fact we don’t get a more severe wave coming on the heels of the current wave,”says Redlener. “But we’ll see what happens.” A second wave could still prove more deadly than the seasonal flu, especially for young children. To date, 189 children have died of influenza in the U.S., the majority of them related to H1N1 infection, and that number is already higher than the total number of pediatric deaths attributed to flu in 2008. Lipsitch says that if current trends hold,H1N1 may end up causing as many influenza deaths, if not more, than the seasonal flu, which kills about 36,000 Americans each year. Instead of hitting the elderly the hardest, though, most of the deaths may be among young children and infants.6.What can be inferred from the passage?A.It is not as severe as experts expected.B.It is likely to have a second wave of H1N1.C.It is not likely to have a second wave of H1N1.D.No one knows for sure whether there will be a second wave of H1N1.正确答案:D解析:此题是推理判断题。

Yesterday afternoon I called you...F: Ah, yes, Mr. Green, I remember our appointment. You said you have some trouble in finding a job?M: Yes. You see, personally I think I have got good qualifications. But out of some reason, I often fail during or after the interview.F: May I have a look at your resume?M: Sure.F: Well, first I must say, your resume has outlined your past very well, but only a statement of past can rarely get you inside a company. I suggest you give employers an example of what you can do for them. You may create a new area in your resume. Call it “value offered”. In two sentences, state the value you would bring to that particular employer.M: Hey, I get that point!

And they must have 21 how difficult it is to write a 22 children's book. Eitherthe author has aimed too 23 , so that the children can't follow what is in his (or more often, her) story, 24 the story seems to be talking to the readers.The best children's books are 25 very difficult nor very simple, and satisfy both the 26 who hears the story and the adult who 27 it. Unfortunately, there are in fact 28 books like this, 29 the problem of finding the right bedtime story is not 30 to solve.This may be why many of books regarded as 31 of children's literature were in fact written for32. “Alice,s Adventure in Wonderland” is perhap33toifethi ost Children, left for themselves, often 34 the worst possible interest in literature. Just leave a child in bookshop or 35 and he will 36 willingly choose the books written in an imaginative way,or have a look at most children's comics, full of the stories and jokes which are the 37 of teachers and right-thinking parents.Perhaps we parents should stop trying to brainwash children into 38 our taste in literature. After all children and adults are so 39 that we parents should not expect that they will enjoy the 40 books. So I suppose we'll just have to compromise over that bedtime story.a. orb. easyc. obviousd. objectionse. andf. acceptingg. forh. goodi. showj. morek. different l. realized m. about n. high o. grown upsp. library q. through r. neither s. works t. readsU. not v. few w. so x. child y. s ameII. Reading Comprehension (20%)There are 4 reading passages in this part. Read them and answer the 25 questions following these passages.Questions 41 to 45 refer to the passage below:I had an experience some years ago which taught me something about the ways in which people make a bad situation worse by blaming themselves. One January, I had to officiate at two funerals on successive days for two elderly women in my community. Both had died "full of years," as the Bible would say; both yielded to the normal wearing out of the body after a long and full life. Their homes happened to be near each other, so I paid condolencecalls on the two families on the same afternoon.At the first home, the son of the deceased woman said to me, "If only I had sent my mother to Florida and gotten her out of this cold and snow, she would be alive today. It's my fault that she died." At the second home, the son of the other deceased woman said, "If only I hadn't insisted on my mother's going to Florida, she would be alive today. That long airplane ride, the abrupt change of climate, was more than she could take. It's my fault that she's dead."When things don't turn out as we would like them to, it is very tempting to assume that had we done things differently, the story would have had a happier ending. Priests knowthat any time there is a death, the survivors will feel guilty. Because the course ofaction they took turned out badly, they believe that the opposite course - keeping Motherat home, postponing the operation - would have turned out better. After all, how could it have turned out any worse?There seem to be two elements involved in our readiness to feel guilt. The first is our pressing need to believe that the world makes sense, that there is a cause for every effect and a reason for everything that happens. That leads us to find patterns and connections both where they really exist and where they exist only in our minds.The second element is the notion that we are the cause of what happens, especially the bad things that happen. It seems to be a short step from believing that every event has a cause to believing that every disaster is our fault. The roots of this feeling may lie in our childhood. Psychologists speak of the infantile myth of omnipotence . A baby comes to think that the world exists to meet his needs, and that he makes everything happen in it. He wakes up in the morning and summons the rest of the world to its tasks. He cries, and someone comes to attend to him. When he is hungry, people feed him, and when he is wet, people change him. Very often, we do not completely outgrow that infantile notion that our wishes cause things to happen.41.What is said about the two deceased elderly women?A)They lived out a natural life.B)They died of exhaustion after the long plane ride.C)They weren't accustomed to the change in weather.D)They died due to lack of care by family members.42.The author had to conduct the two women's funerals probably because.A)he wanted to console the two familiesB)he was an official from the communityC)he had great sympathy for the deceasedD)he was priest of the local church43.What does the underlined word “condolence“ mean (Line 6, Para. 1)?A) inquiry B) sympathy C) indifferent D) emergency44.People feel guilty for the deaths of their loved ones becauseA)they couldn't find a better way to express their griefB)they believe that they were responsibleC)they had neglected the natural course of eventsD)they didn't know things often turn out in the opposite direction 45. In the context of the passage, "... the world makes sense" (Line 2, Para, 4) probably means that.A)everything in the world is predeterminedB)the world can be interpreted in different waysC)there's an explanation for everything in the worldD)we have to be sensible in order to understand the worldQuestions 45-50 refer to the following passage:Throughout the nation's more than 15,000 school districts, widely differing approaches to teaching science and math have emerged. Though there can be strength in diversity, a newinternational analysis suggests that this variability has instead contributed to lackluster achievement scores by U.S. children relative to their peers in other developed countries. Indeed, concludes William H. Schmidt of Michigan State University, who led the new analysis, "no single intellectually coherent vision dominates U.S. educational practice in math or science.'' The reason, he said, "is because the system is deeply and fundamentally flawed."The new analysis, released this week by the National Science Foundation in Arlington, Va., is based on data collected from about 50 nations as part of the Third International Mathematics and Science Study.Not only do approaches to teaching science and math vary among individual U.S. communities, the report finds, but there appears to be little strategic focus within a school district,s curricula, its textbooks, or its teachers' activities. This contrasts sharply with the coordinated national programs of most other countries.On average, U.S. students study more topics within science and math than their international counterparts do. This creates an educational environment that "is a mile wide and an inch deep," Schmidt notes.For instance, eighth graders in the United States cover about 33 topics in math versus just 19 in Japan. Among science courses, the international gap is even wider. U.S. curricula for this age level resemble those of a small group of countries including Australia, Thailand, Iceland, and Bulgaria. Schmidt asks whether the United States wants to be classed with these nations, whose educational systems "share our pattern of splintered visions" but which are not economic leaders.The new report "couldn't come at a better time," says Gerald Wheeler, executive director of the National Science Teachers Association in Arlington. "The new National Science Education Standards provide that focused vision," including the call "to do less, but in greater depth."Implementing the new science standards and their math counterparts will be the challenge, he and Schmidt agree, because the decentralized responsibility for education in the United States requires that any reforms be tailored and instituted one community at a time.In fact, Schmidt argues, reforms such as these proposed national standards "face an almost impossible task, because even though they are intellectually coherent, each becomes only one more voice in the babble."46.What does the underlined word “lackluster” mean in the passage (Line 4, Para. 1)?A) unique B) distinguishing C)important D) common47.According to the passage, the teaching of science and math in America isA)focused on tapping students' potentialB)characterized by its diversityC)losing its vitality graduallyD)going downhill in recent years48.The fundamental flaw of American school education is that.A)it lacks a coordinated national programB)it sets a very low academic standard for studentsC)it relies heavily on the initiative of individual teachersD)it attaches too much importance to intensive study of school subjects49.By saying that the U.S. educational environment is "a mile wide and an inch deep" (Line2, Para. 5), the author means U.S. educational practice.A)lays stress on quality at the expense of quantityB)offers an environment for comprehensive educationC)encourages learning both in depth and in scopeD)scratches the surface of a wide range of topics50.The new National Science Education Standards are good news in that they willA)provide depth to school science educationB)solve most of the problems in school teachingC)be able to meet the demands of the communityD)quickly dominate U.S. educational practiceQuestions 51-55 refer to the passage that follows:There are good reasons to be troubled by the violence that spreads throughout the media. Movies, Television and video games are full of gunplay and bloodshed, and one might reasonably ask what,s wrong with a society that presents videos of domestic violence as entertainment.Most researchers agree that the causes of real-world violence are complex. A 1993 study by the U.S. National Academy of Sciences listed “biological, individual, family, peer, school, and community fact ors” as all playing their parts.Viewing abnormally large amounts of violent television and video games may well contribute to violent behavior in certain individuals. The trouble comes when researchers downplay uncertainties in their studies or overstate the case for causality. Skeptics were dismayed several years ago when a group of societies including the American Medical Association tried to end the debate by issuing a joint statement: “At this time, well over 1,000 studies... point overwhelmingly to a causal connection between media violence and aggressive behavior in some children.”Freedom-of-speech advocates accused the societies of catering to politicians, and even disputed the number of studies (most were review articles and essays, they said). When Jonathan Freedman, a social psychologist at the University of Toronto, reviewed the literature, he found only 200 or so studies of television-watching and aggression. And when he weeded out “the most doubtful measures of aggression”, only 28% supported a connection.The critical point here is causality. The alarmists say they have proved that violent media cause aggression. But the assumptions behind their observations need to be examined. When labeling games as violent or non-violent, should a hero eating a ghost really be counted as a violent event? And when experimenters record the time it takes game players to read ‘aggressive, or ‘non -aggressive, words from a list, can we be sure what they are actually measuring? The intent of the new Harvard Center on Media and Child Health to collect and standardize studies of media violence in order to compare their methodologies, assumptions and conclusions is an important step in the right direction.Another appropriate step would be to tone down the criticism until we know more. Several researchers write, speak and testify quite a lot on the threat posed by violence in the media.That is, of course, their privilege. But when doing so, they often come out with statements that the matter has now been settled, drawing criticism from colleagues. In response, the alarmists accuse critics and news reporters of being deceived by the entertainment industry. Such clashes help neither science nor society.51.Why is there so much violence shown in movies, TV and video games?A)There is a lot of violence in the real world today.B)Something has gone wrong with today,s society.C)Many people are fond of gunplay and bloodshed.D)Showing violence is thought to be entertaining.52.What is the skeptics (Line 3. Para. 3) view of media violence?A)Violence on television is a fairly accurate reflection of real-world life.B)Most studies exaggerate the effect of media violence on the viewers.C) A causal relationship exists between media and real-world violence.D)The influence of media violence on children has been underestimated.53.What does the underlined word “causality“ mean (Line 3, Para. 3)?A) casualty B) objectivityC) the relationship between cause and effect D) liability54.The author uses the term “alarmists” (Line 1. Para. 5) to refer to those who .A)use standardized measurements in the studies of media violenceB)initiated the debate over the influence of violent media on realityC)assert a direct link between violent media and aggressive behaviorD)use appropriate methodology in examining aggressive behavior55.In refuting the alarmists, the author advances his argument by first challenging .A)the source and amount of their dataB)the targets of their observationC)their system of measurementD)their definition of violenceQuestions 56-60 refer to the passage below:Age has its privileges in America. And one of the more prominent of them is the senior citizen discount. Anyone who has reached a certain age —in some cases as low as 55—is automatically entitled to a dazzling array of price reductions at nearly every level of commercial life. Eligibility is determined not by one,s need but by the date on one,s birth certificate. Practically unheard of a generation ago, the discounts have become a routine part of many businesses —as common as color televisions in motel rooms and free coffee on airliners.People with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them;yet,millions of Americans above age 60 are healthy and solvent. Businesses that would never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to older Americans. The practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy” are synonymous. Perhaps that once was true, but today elderly Americans as a group have a lower poverty rate than the rest of the population. To be sure, there is economic diversity within the elderly, and many older Americans are poor. But most of them aren,t.It is impossible to determine the impact of the discounts on individual companies. For many firms, they are a stimulus to revenue. But in other cases the discounts are given at the expense, directly or indirectly, of younger Americans. Moreover, they are a direct irritant in what some politicians and scholars see as a coming conflict between the generations.Generational tensions are being fueled by continuing debate over Social Security benefits, which mostly involves a transfer of resources from the young to the old. Employment is another sore point, Buoyed by laws and court decisions, more and more older Americans are declining the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the job-thereby lessening employment and promotion opportunities for younger workers.Far from a kind of charity they once were, senior citizen discounts have become a formidable economic privilege to a group with millions of members who don,t need them.It no longer makes sense to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deserve priority over those of others. Senior citizen discounts only enhance the myth that older people can,t take care of themselves and need special treatment;and they threaten the creation of a new myth, that the elderly are ungrateful and taking forthemselves at the expense of children and other age groups. Senior citizen discounts are the essence of the very thing older Americans are fighting against-discrimination by age.56. We learn from the first paragraph that.A) offering senior citizens discounts has become routine commercial practiceB) senior citizen discounts have enabled many old people to live a decent lifeC) giving senior citizens discounts has boosted the market for the elderlyD) senior citizens have to show their birth certificates to get a discount57. What assumption lies behind the practice of senior citizen discounts?A) Businesses, having made a lot of profits, should do something for society inreturn.B) Old people are entitled to special treatment for the contribution they made tosociety.C) The elderly, being financially underprivileged, need humane help from society.D) Senior citizen discounts can make up for the inadequacy of the Social Securitysystem.58. What does the underlined word “synonymous“ mean (Line 5, Para 2)?A) having different meanings B) having the same meaningC) opposite C) hostile59. According to some politicians and scholars, senior citizen discounts will .A) make old people even more dependent on societyB) intensify conflicts between the young and the oldC) have adverse financial impact on business companiesD) bring a marked increase in the companies revenues60. Which of the following words can replace the underlined word “Buoyed” in the passage(Line 3, Para 4)?A) Supported B) Opposed C) Abiding D) StandingWrite your translation on the ANSWER SHEET[.Translation (40%)Section A:Translate the following passage into English (20%)大自然对人的恩赐,无论贫富,一律平等。

Unlike music and dance, however, examples of early forms of painting have survived to the present day. The modern eye can derive aesthetic as well as antiquarian satisfaction from the 15,000-year-old-cave murals of Lascaux-- some examples (35)______ to the considerable powers of draftsmanship of these early artists.

For each multiple choice question, there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET TWO.PASSAGE ONEGiven the lack of fit between gifted students and their schools, it is not surprising that such students often have little good to say about their school experience. In one study of 400 adults who had achieved distinction in all areas of life, researchers found that three-fifths of these individuals either did badly in school or were unhappy in school. Few MacArthur Prize fellows, winners of the MacArthur Award for creative accomplishment, had good things to say about their precollegiate schooling if they had not been placed in advanced programs.Anecdotal reports support this. Pablo Picasso, Charles Darwin, Mark Twain, Oliver Goldsmith, and William Butler Yeats all disliked school. So did Winston Churchill, who almost failed out of Harrow, an elite British school. About Oliver Goldsmith, one of his teachers remarked, "Never was so dull a boy. " Often these children realize that they know more than their teachers, and their teachers often feel that these children are arrogant, inattentive, or unmotivated.Some of these gifted people may have done poorly in school because their gifts were not scholastic. Maybe we can account for Picasso in this way. But most fared poorly in school not because they lacked ability but because they found school unchallenging and consequently lost interest. Yeats described the lack of fit between his mind and school: "Because I had found it difficult to attend to anything less interesting than my own thoughts, I was difficult to teach."As noted earlier, gifted children of all kinds tend to be strong-willed nonconformists. Nonconformity and stubbornness (and Yeats's level of arrogance and self-absorption) are likely to lead to Conflicts with teachers.When highly gifted students in any domain talk about what was important to the development of their abilities, they are far more likely to mention their families than their schools or teachers. A writing prodigy studied by David Feldman and Lynn Goldsmith was taught far more about writing by his journalist father than his English teacher. High-IQ children, in Australia studied by Miraca Gross had much more positive feelings about their families than their schools. About half of the mathematicians studied by Benjamin Bloom had little good to say about school. They all did well in school and took honors classes when available, and some skipped grades.41. The author quotes the remarks of one of Oliver Goldsmith's teachers______.A.to provide support for his argument.B.to illustrate the strong will of some gifted children.C.to explain how dull students can also be successful.D.to show how poor Oliver's performance was at school.42. Pablo Picasso is listed among the many gifted children who______.A.paid no attention to their teachers in class.B.contradicted their teachers much too often.C.could not cope with their studies at school successfully.D.behaved arrogantly and stubbornly in the presence of their teachers.43. Many gifted people attributed their success______.A.mainly to parental help and their education at home.B.both to school instruction and to their rparents' coaching.C.more to their parents' encouragement than to school training.D.less to their systematic education than to their talent.PASSAGE TWOA controversy erupted in the scientific community in early 1998 over the use of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid ) fingerprinting in criminal investigations. DNA fingerprinting was introduced in 1987 as a method to identify individuals based on a pattern seen in their DNA, the molecule of which genes are made. DNA is present in every cell of the body except red blood cells. DNA fingerprinting has been used successfully in various ways, such as to determine paternity where it is not clear who the father of a particular child is. However, it is in the area of criminal investigations that DNA fingerprinting has potentially powerful and controversial uses.DNA fingerprinting and other DNA analysis techniques have revolutionized criminal investigations by giving investigators powerful new tools in the attempt to trove guilt, not just establish innocence. When used in criminal investigations, a DNA fingerprint pattern from a suspect is compared with a DNA fingerprint pattern obtained from such material as hairs or blood found at the scene of a crime. A match between the two DNA samples can be used as evidence to convict a suspect.The controversy in 1998 stemmed form a report published in December 1991 by population geneticists Richard C. Lewontin of Harvard University in Cambridge, Mass., and Daniel L. Hartl called into question the methods to calculate how likely it is that a match between two DNA fingerprints might occur by chance alone. In particular, they argued that the current method cannot properly determine the likelihood that two DNA samples will match because they came from the same individual rather than simply from two different individuals who are members of the same ethnic group. Lewontin and Hartl called for better surveys of DNA patterns methods are adequate.In response to their criticisms, population geneticists Ranajit Chakraborty of the University of Texas in Dallas and Kenneth K.Kidd of Yale University in New Haven, Conn., argued that enough data are already available to show that the methods currently being used are adequate. In January 1998, however, the federal Bureau of Investigation and laboratories that conduct DNA tests announced that they would collect additional DNA samples form various ethnic groups in an attempt to resolve some of these questions. And, in April, a National Academy of Sciences called for strict standards and system of accreditation for DNA testing laboratories.44. Before DNA fingerprinting is used, suspects____.A. would have to leave their fingerprints for further investigationsB. would have to submit evidence for their innocenceC. could easily escape conviction of guiltD. could be convicted of guilt as well45. The attitude of the Federal Bereau of Investigation shows that ____.A. enough data are yet to be collected form various ethnic groups to confirm the unlikelihood oftwo DNA samples coming from two individual membersB. enough data of DNA samples should be collected to confirm that only DNA samples form thesame person can matchC. enough data are yet to be collected from various ethnic groups to determine the likelihood oftwo different DNA samples coming form the same personD. additional samples from various ethnic groups should be collected to determine that two DNAsamples are unlikely to come from the same person46. The National Academy of Sciences holds the stance that ____.A. DNA testing should be systematizedB. only authorized laboratories can conduct DNA testingC. it is authorized to work out standards for testingD. it has the right to accredit laboratories for DNA testingPASSAGE THREEA few months ago I was nominated for Governor of the great State of New York, to run against Stewart L. Woodford and John T. Hoffman, on an independent ticket. I somehow felt that I had one prominent advantage over these gentlemen, and that was, good character. It was easy to see by the newspapers, that if ever they had known what it was to bear a good name, that time had gone by. It was plain that in these latter years they had become familiar with all manner of shameful crimes. But at the very moment that I was exalting my advantage and joying in it in secret, there was a muddy undercurrent of discomfort "riling" the deeps of my happiness -- and that was, the having to hear my name bandied about in familiar connection with those of such people.But after all, I could not recede. I was fully committed and must go on with the fight. As I was looking listlessly over the papers at breakfast, I came across this paragraph, and I may truly say I never was so confounded before:PERJURY. -- Perhaps, now that Mr. Mark Twain is before the people as a candidate for Governor, he will condescend to explain how he came to be convicted of perjury by thirty-four witnesses, in Wakawak, Cochin China, in 1863, the intent of which perjury was to rob a poor native widow and her helpless family of a meagre plantain patch, their only stay and support in their bereavement and their desolation. Mr. Twain owes it to himself, as well as to the great people whose suffrages he asks, to clear this matter up. Will he do it?I thought I should burst with amazement! Such a cruel, heartless charge -- I never had seen Cochin China! I never had beard of Wakawak! I didn't know a plantain patch from a kangaroo! I did not know what to do. I was crazed and helpless. I let the day slip away without doing anything at all.[Mem. -- During the rest of the campaign this paper never referred to me in any other way than as "the infamous perjurer Twain."]Next came the "Gazette," with this:WANTED TO KNOW. -- Will the new candidate for Governor deign to explain to certain of his fellow-citizens (who are suffering to vote for him!) the little circumstance of his cabin-mates in Montana losing small valuables from time to time, until at last, these things having been invariably found on Mr. Twain's person or in his "trunk" (newspaper he rolled his traps in), they felt compelled to give him a friendly admonition for his own good, and so tarred and feathered him and rode him on a rail, and then advised him to leave a permanent vacuum in the place he usually occupied in the camp. Will he do this?Could anything be more deliberately malicious than that? For I never was in Montana in my life.[After this, this journal customarily spoke of me as "Twain, the Montana Thief."]I got to pick up papers apprehensively -- much as one would lift a desired blanket which he had some idea might have a rattlesnake under it.By this time anonymous letters were getting to be an important part of my mail matter. This form was common:How about that old woman you kicked of...Shortly the principal Republican journal "convicted" me of wholesale bribery, and the leading Democratic paper "nailed" an aggravated case of blackmailing to me.[In this way I acquired two additional names: "Twain, the Filthy Corruptionist," and "Twain, the Loathsome Embracer."]There was no possible way of getting out of it, and so, in deep humiliation, I set about preparing to "answer" a mass of baseless charges and mean and wicked falsehoods. But I never finished the task, for the very next morning a paper came out with a new horror, a fresh malignity, and seriously charged me with burning a lunatic asylum with all its inmates, because it obstructed the view from my house. This threw me into a sort of panic. And at last, as a due and fitting climax to the shameless persecution that party rancor had inflicted upon me, nine little toddling children of all shades of color and degrees of raggedness were taught to rush on to the platform at a public meeting and clasp me around the legs and call me PA!I gave up. I hauled down my colors and surrendered. I was not equal to the requirements of a Gubernatorial campaign in the State of New York, and so I sent in my withdrawal from the candidacy, and in bitterness of spirit signed it,"Truly yours,"Once a decent man, but now MARK TWAIN, I. P., M. T., B. S., D. T., F. C., and L. E."47. According to Para.1, Twain felt uncomfortable probably because_______.A. he was afraid that his good fame would be blackenedB. he felt reluctant to associate with the evil peopleC. it brought no honor to the victor in an unequal contestD. it was too late to recede from a problematic competiton48. The Gazatte accused Twain of_______.A. throwing away his friend’s belongingsB. making a practical joke of his enemiesC. stealing and hiding a mate’s precious stuffD. occupying the camp of another person49. To injure Twain’s reputation, his rivals tried all the following EXCEPT_______.A. media disinformationB. letters if false accusationC. anonymous blackmailsD. humiliation in publicSECTION B SHORT ANSWER QUESTIONSIn this section, there are five short answer questions based on the passages in Section A.

专业英语八级(作文)模拟试卷1(题后含答案及解析) 题型有: 6. WRITINGPART VI WRITING (45 MIN)Directions: Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic.1.In recent years, many famous universities lower admission requirements for celebrities. More and more celebrities, especially sports stars, have been admitted to famous universities even without an entry examination. This phenomenon has become a subject of widespread controversy. What is your view on this? Write an essay of about 400 words on the following topic: Should Universities Lower Admission Requirements for Celebrities? 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.正确答案:Should Universities Lower Admission Requirements for Celebrities? In recent years, it is not rare to hear that some leading universities lower their admission requirements for celebrity students, such as film stars, pop singers and Olympic medal winners. As a result, more and more celebrities are accepted into the universities, many of who even needn’ t take the College Entrance Examination. Confronted with the above-mentioned facts, people take diametrically opposite views: some regard it as a win-win situation for both the universities and the celebrities while others think it goes against the principle of fairness. Siding with the former, I maintain that it is a wise move on the part of the universities to lower admission requirements for celebrities. First of all, it is reasonable and understandable to lower admission requirements to enroll celebrities if they have made significant contributions to our society or country. Whether it is breaking a world record in sports or winning an international reward in filming, they deserve respect for their achievement. In this case, when they apply for an opportunity to receive higher education, why should universities shut them out only because they have gained fewer points than the average students in the entrance examination? Secondly, celebrity students are positive role models for their fellow students. It goes without saying that successful people are often tough nails with strong determinations. They are often self-assured, hardworking and persevering. Their stories of success can stimulate fellow students to follow their examples and to get ahead in their own chosen fields. Then, how comes lowering admission requirements for celebrities both violates our society’s sense of fair play and hurts the feeling of the hard-working students. Thirdly, universities can also enhance their reputation by enrolling celebrities. For one thing, since celebrities are always the targets for various media,their studies and life on campus will easily become the hot topic of journalists, and this will in turn gain publicity for the universities. For another, since celebrity students are always those who rise to fame for brilliant achievements in a certain field, they can win more honors to their universities by using their advantages in various competitions between schools. Considering the above analyses, bending the rules for celebrity students benefits the favored individuals, the student body, as well as the universities. Therefore, I agree that universities should lower admission requirements for celebrities.解析:第一部分(第一段)开门见山地提出自己的观点:学校为名人降低录取门槛是明智之举。

In large paddocks where feed is plentiful, the sheep tend to remain as one flock. The time devoted to grassing is reduced and ram—ewe contact, mating activity and reproductive performance are high. Where feed availability falls, sheep in large paddocks disperse and devote much time to grassing. Contact between rams and ewes diminishes and mating activity and reproductive performance falls. When sheep are in small paddocks with plentiful feed and without a maze, a factor which will reduce contact, reproductive performance might be at normal levels.
