Such pipelines can easily cost several million dollars per mile.Large coal mines,in contrast,are more widely spread and closer to most demand centers than natural gas fields.Increasing the supply of coal is possible by using the existing railroad system without constructing major new lines,although modifications(改建)must be made to smoothly handle the increased traffic.Such a consideration provides coal an advantage over natural gas in most cases. Although coal is available at a comparatively lower and more stable price than natural gas,constructing a coal-fired power plant is much more expensive than one fueled by natural gas.Therefore,how to fuel a new electric power plant is still a fundamental issue for discussion.36.What is the passage mainly about?A)Where to build new power plants.B)What fuel to use for new power plants.C)Advantages of power plants fueled by coal.D)Advantages of power plants fueled by natural gas.37.To construct a power plant where there is a large amount of natural gas,peopleneed to do all the following EXCEPT______.A)opening huge new gas fieldsB)building infrastructuresC)building thousands of miles of pipelinesD)building power lines to transmit electricity38.The phrase“the increased traffic”(Paragraph2)refers to the increase of transportation of_______.A)pipes B)coal C)natural gas D)building materialspared with a power plant fueled by natural gas,a coal-fueled power plant _____.A)requires no modifications of the railway systemB)is farther away from consumer demand centersC)uses a fuel supplied at a higher priceD)costs more money in its construction40.What can be learned from the last paragraph of this passage?A)The choice of fuel for new power plants is yet to be made.B)Natural gas is a better fuel for new power plants.C)Coal is a better fuel for new power plants.D)It makes no difference to use either fuel for new power plantsPassage TwoIn almost every urban are,the city is warmer than its immediately surrounding suburban and rural areas.Do the cities themselves generate enough heat to raise the temperature evidently?Is there something about cities that allow them to hold heat? The heat generated by buildings,factories,vehicles,lighting,and other products of modern technology is enough to raise the temperature a degree or two in densely populated(人口稠密的)cities.The hot air blown out by air conditioners(空调机) during summer months affects the temperature outside as surely,if less considerably, as they affect the temperature inside an air-conditioned room.But even if cities did not generate their own heat,they would still be warmer than rural or suburban areas.When the sun shines on the flat countryside,the light is reflected back to the sky.When the sun shines in a city,the light bounces(弹回)from building to building like a Ping-Pong ball—more of the sun’s warmth is absorbed in the city.In fact,buildings and cement streets can hold more heat and more sunlight than grass,trees,or the fields in the country.It is commonly assumed that air pollution is what makes cities warmer.Since dust particles can absorb radiation,the theory goes,the more polluted the city,the higher the temperature is artificially raised.41.The word“immediately”in the first sentence most probably means_____.A)at once B)directly C)closely D)right away42.The answer to the second question in the first paragraph is given in_____.A)paragraphs3and4C)paragraphs2and4B)Paragraphs2and3D)the last3paragraphs43.Each of the following generates heat in cities EXCEPT_______.A)air conditioners B)dust particles C)vehicles D)factories44.When the sunlight bounces from building to building in the city,______.A)air pollution is thus producesB)the light is reflected back to the skyC)heat is generated by the buildingsD)the temperature is surely raised45.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A)Buildings in cities can generate and hold heat.B)Grass,trees and farm fields hold more heat.C)Dust particles can generate radiation.D)There is more sunlight in cities than in their suburbs.Passage ThreeGenetic(基因的)difference between bees in a bee group have been thought to be very small and unimportant.Scientists have thought that the work of each bee is determined by the way the bee is brought up and fed.Now these beliefs have been proved to be mistaken.Two groups of American scientists have shown independently that most of the complex behavior of bees is not the result of upbringing(养育)after all.It is inherited(遗传的).Both teams of scientists were surprised by their findings. The question of how different genes make different bees do different jobs is,however, so far unanswered.The findings provide a big puzzle for biologists studying evolution.Bees are among the most co-operative of all insects.This had been explained by a theory of“the selfish gene”.According to this theory,all bees have very similar genes and their co-operative behavior promotes the spread of these genes.From this it would follow that genetic variety should reduce co-operation.Now it seems the opposite is true. The scientists are fairly confident that their findings will turn out to apply to other social insects,for example,ants as well as bees.46.The two groups of American scientists have shown that different bees do different jobs because they______.A)are brought up in different waysB)eat different foodC)undergo different stages of evolutionD)have different genes47.What was once thought to be important in determining a bee’s behavior?A)Social activities.B)Upbringing.C)Different jobs.D)Genes.48.Up to now scientists cannot explain_____.A)why bees are social insectsB)why bees have complex behaviorC)how genes control bees’behaviorD)how their findings apply to social insects49.The biologists studying evolution are puzzled by______.A)genetic differences between bees C)co-operative behavior of beesB)similar genes shared by bees D)work division among bees50.The word“follow”in Line4,Paragraph2could be replaced by______.A)go behind B)go on C)be safe D)be truePassage FourThe prices of raw materials and produce change every day,so offers are usually only firm for about twenty-four hours.The prices of manufactured goods,on the other hand,remain unchanged,as a rule,for weeks or months,so buyers can place orders on the basis of a manufacture’s printed price list.There are many ways of selling manufactured goods to foreign buyers.A manufacturer may maintain his own traveling representatives,or set up his own offices or companies abroad.Alternatively he may sell to an export house;in this case there is little financial risk for the producer,since the merchant acts as a buyer and pays for the goods himself.A third possibility is for the manufacturer to appoint foreign agents,who will work on commission.In this case goods may be sent unsold, and the agent is expected to obtain the best price available;but this practice is more common with produce exports.A firm order is often called an indent(订货单),and there is a special type of commission agent called an indent house.A buyer either places a closed indent,which names the supplier,or an open indent,which leaves the choice of supplier to the agent. The indent agent usually takes a commission on the value of his purchase.51.It can be inferred from the passage that the price for an order of TV sets may be set according to______.A)the manufacturer’s printed price list C)the value of the row materialsB)a rule that remains unchanged D)daily changes of prices52.How many ways of selling manufactured goods are mentioned in the passage?A)Five.B)Four.C)Three D)Two53.An appointed foreign agent makes money by_____.A)obtaining the best prices C)buying low and selling highB)taking a fee for his service D)earning profits from his sales54.When an agent gets an open indent,he will______.A)sell the goods to the supplier C)find the name of the supplierB)supply the needed goods D)find a supplier to order the goods55.This passage mainly tells us about______.A)foreign agents C)open indentsB)Exporting practice D)Changing pricesPart IV:Translation from English into Chinese(10%)(15minutes) Directions:In this part,there are four items which you should translate into Chinese, each item consisting of one sentence.These sentences are all taken from the reading passages you have just read in Part III of the Test Paper.You are allowed15minutes to do the translation.You can refer back to the passages so as to identify their meaning in the context.Write your translation on the Translation Sheet in Test Paper Two.1.(Lines1-2,Paragraph2,Passage1)Large coal mines,in contrast,are more widely spread and closer to most demand centers than natural gas fields.A)大型煤矿与天然气田相比,分布广,更靠近大学数需求中心.B)相比之下,大型煤矿更广的分布,比天然气田更靠近需求中心.C)大型煤矿相比之下分布更为广泛,比天然气田更靠近需求中心.D)相反,大型煤矿分布更广,比天然气田更靠近最需求的中心.E)相比之下,大型煤矿比天然气田分布更广,离大多数需求中心更近.2.(Lines1-3,Paragraph4,Passage2)Since dust particles can absorb radiation,the theory goes,the more polluted the city, the higher the temperature is artificially raised.A)从理论上讲,既然尘粒子吸收辐射,那么,越是污染严重的城市,认为因素造成的气温上升就越大.B)从理论上讲,既然尘粒子吸收辐射,因此,越是污染的城市,人为因素提高的气温越大.C)从理论上讲,既然尘粒子能吸收辐射,越是污染的城市,气温被人为提高越大.D)既然尘粒子能吸收辐射,从理论上讲,越是污染严重的城市,认为因素造成的气温上升就越大.E)因为尘粒子吸收辐射,那么,根据理论,越是污染的城市,人工提高的气温就越大.3.(Lines3-4,Paragraph2,Passage3)According to this theory,all bees have very similar genes and their co-operative behavior promotes the spread of these genes.A)根据这个理论,所有的蜜蜂都有相似的基因,并且他们的协作行为则提高了这些基因的广泛扩散.B)根据这个理论,所有的蜜蜂都有非常相似的基因,他们的合作行为则促进了这些基因的扩散.C)根据这个理论,所有的蜜蜂都有非常相似的基因,而他们的合作行为则加快了这些基因的扩散速度.D)根据这个理论,所有蜜蜂都有非常相似的基因,它们的合作行为则加快了这些基因扩散的速度.E)根据这个理论,所有的蜜蜂都有类似的基因和他们的合作行为使得这些基因扩散更快.4.(Lines1-3,Paragraph2,Passage4)A manufacturer may maintain his own traveling representatives,or set up his own offices or companies abroad.A)制造商可以维持他自己的旅行销售代表,或者,可以在国外设立自己的办公室或公司.B)制造商可以有他自己的非常驻销售代表,或者在国外建立自己的办公室或公司.C)制造商可以保持他自己的非常驻销售代表,也可以在国外修建自己的办公室或分公司.D)制造商可以有他自己的非常驻销售代表,也可以在国外设立自己的办公室或分公司.E)制造商可以保持他自己的旅行代表,或者,在国外修建自己的办公室或公司.

鈪?Reading Comprehension(鎬婚鏁帮細3锛屽垎鏁帮細40.00)A One of the most pivotal moments in American literature occurred near the end of thenineteenth century as authors such as a young man named Stephen Crane began to embrace a literary style forged in Europe a bit earlier and which would come to be known as naturalism. Crane was born to parents in the ministry and grew up in a household grounded in religious beliefs and context. Yet, before long, Crane had, for the most part, rejected religion and the idea of divine intervention in favor of a more hands-on approach to the world. As he began to develop as a writer, naturalist themes of man versus nature, the unrelenting power of nature, and an objective view of the world began to dominate his writing. Naturalists attempted to depict the most accurate view of life unadulterated and unobstructed by external commentary or spiritual intervention. Ultimately, Crane"s masterful short story The Open Boat stands as one of the most complete and developed works of thenaturalist genre.B The first apparent element of naturalism in The Open Boat is its subject matter鈥攁shipwreck. Being as true to life as possible is one of the most common goals of a naturalistic writer, and, in this short story, Crane is no exception. It did not come from Crane"s imagination. Rather, it stemmed from his personal experience. As a young war reporter, Crane was on his way from Florida to Cuba when his vessel, the Commodore, encountered a violent tempest. Within hours, the ship had sunk, leaving a few lucky survivors on a tiny lifeboat to be subjected to the fury of nature. Throughout the story, Crane depicts scene after scene as if they were snapshots or a short film of what the men in the boat were up against. Through his prose, Crane is able to reveal the unadulterated,brutal realism manifest in nature itself.C At the end of the story, the men"s realization of the strength of nature helps them toovercome their fear of drowning and accept the death of the oiler. The men are afraid of drowning, which is evident when they recite, "If I am going to be drowned鈥?" This is recited at three different times, before and during their long night out on the boat, thus suggesting that the men are afraid of drowning. During the long night, "A high cold star on a winter"s night is the word he feels that she says to him. Thereafter he knows the pathos of his situation." Each man realizes that nature is greater than him; therefore, each man understands that he must endure whatever nature throws at him. Also, during this night on the boat, each man comes to the conclusion that his fate is in the hands of nature, in the morning, the men see that they will not be rescued by anyone. As a result of their understanding of their situation that is acquired during the night about the might of nature, they are able to overcome their fear of drowning, and thus death.D Prior to the time when the men jump out of the boat, "the correspondent, observing the others, knew that they were not afraid." The men, because they understand the strength of nature, are able to conquer their fear of death. The men accept their fate; whatever it may be. "There were no hurried words, no pallor, no plain agitation. The men simply looked atthe shore."The correspondent, in the face of mortal peril before leaving the boat, is also not afraid of dying, "it merely occurred to him that if he should drown it would be a shame." When the men swim onto shore, they know that they may die or just as easily live; the outcome is out of their control. Thus, it comes as no surprise to the men when they see one of their comrades, the oiler, dead. The fact that he is the strongest of the men when he "was swimming strongly and rapidly," further shows the power of nature that the men have come to realize. The men"s understanding of nature allows them to overcome their fear of death bydrowning and make a run at the shore without trepidation.E As Crane continues with the theme of man versus nature in The Open Boat , the element ofpessimism, crucial to any naturalistic work, becomes quite apparent. The men are at the mercy of the storms and the seas and cannot do much to save themselves. In this sense, Crane reveals the indifference of nature and the universe in relation to the life or plight of human beings in general. It is obvious to him that angels will not swoop down and save the unfortunate men. The situation of the shipwreck is ideal because ordinary, everyday people must face an extreme situation from which it is more than likely that they will perish. Crane continually creates a mood of impending doom and the punishing nature of the universe throughout the story. Along the way, he provides little commentary on the situation, forcing readers to place themselves immediately in the boat with the men while enforcing the dark tone of the story. But, even to Crane and most naturalist writers, all is not lost. Though the outcome is bleak, Crane does add a glimmer of hope to the story. While in general the individual may seem insignificant in the grand scheme or the universe or to nature itself; Crane instills the importance or camaraderie in the story. For instance, all the sailors cast their ranks aside and help each other swim to shore for safety. In order to survive, the individuals in the boat must cooperate and help each other against the forces of nature.Together they have some dominion of control over their fate, but less so individually. Though they are isolated out among the waves in sight of shore, they remain unified in their struggle for survival, which undermines the predominant pessimistic outlook or the story asa whole.F While Crane"s work The Open Boat is a dark account of a chance situation that turns fatal for many, but not all, of the crew of the Commodore, it also sets forth the main elements of a naturalistic literary work at the turn of the twentieth century. Despite the fact thatnature can be unrelenting and compassionless towards humans at any given moment, Crane ultimately shows how individuals still always have the capacity to strive together to overcome hardships and disasters. Furthermore, the accuracy and detail by Crone shun any possibility of a sugarcoated reality and reveal the true ferocity of nature as it is.

As mankind has progressed in knowledge and technique, the second class has become a continually increasing percentage of the total. In old times, famine, for example, was due to natural causes, and although people did their best to combat it, large numbers of them died of starvation. At the present moment large parts of the world are faced with the threat of famine, but although natural causes have contributed to the situation, the principal causes are human. For six years the civilized nations of the world devoted all their best energies to killing each other, and they find it difficult suddenly to switch over to keeping each other alive. Having destroyed harvests, dismantled agricultural machinery, and disorganized shipping, they find it no easy matter to relieve the shortage of crops in one place by means of a superabundance in another, as would easily be done if the economic system were in normal working order. As this illustration shows, it is now man that is man’s worst enemy. Nature, it is true, still sees to it that we are mortal, but with the progress in medicine it will become more and more common for people to live until they have had their fill of life. We are supposed to wish to live forever and to look forward to the unending joys of heaven, of which, by miracle, the monotony will never grow stale. But in fact, if you question any candid person who is no longer young, he is very likely to tell you that, having tasted life in this world, he has no wish to begin again as a ‘new boy’in another. For the future, therefore, it may be taken that the most important evils that mankind have to consider are those which they inflict upon each other through stupidity or malevolence or both.正确答案:人类的不幸可以分为两种类型,第一种是非人类的环境因素强加的不幸,第二类是其他人造成的不幸。

Olga wasn't sure, however, whether she should spend part of her savings on Kwan's latest book, The Newcomer. She hoped the following book reviews in her high school newspaper would help her make a decision.Novel Without a PlotBy Carlo DanteI just finished reading Adele Kwan's latest novel, The Newcomer, and was disappointed. In my opinion the book does not have enough plot to be considered a novel. The newcomer in this book is Violet Wang. She's fifteen when her family moves from San Francisco's Chinatown to a small town in Washington State. In this town everyone knows each other, and none of the other residents are Chinese. Violet's challenge is to fit in. Sensitive and intelligent, she amuses those who know her well but is shy and reserved with strangers.These circumstances could have provided the basis for an interesting story. I particularly enjoyed learning about Chinese American culture and Violet's strong family ties. However, this book has no real plot. There is no action to follow. Instead the author emphasizes what is happening in Violet's head as she finds her way in her new home. We are introduced to new characters and situations only as they are viewed by the introspective Violet. When she arrives at her new school, for example, the reader is forced to endure page after page describing Violet's classrooms, classmates, and teachers, with no excitement to keep us involved in the story.If this had been a historical novel, at least the text could have elucidated what life was like during a past era. If it had been a mystery, I would have had a reason to move from one page to the next. Furthermore, Violet would have had a more intriguing way to demonstrate her intelligence and sensitivity.As it is, I found The Newcomer uninteresting. The lack of plot and the reliance on a single character to support the entire book make for a dull, slow-moving reading experience. Although Ms. Kwan writes well, she has failed to presser a story worth reading.A Book to CherishBy Rachel BlytheIn last week's edition I read "Novel Without a Plot" , an unflattering review of Adele Kwan's latest novel, I too, have read The Newcomer, and I strongly disagree with.Carlo Dante's evaluation of this fine novel. Dante claims The Newcomer lacks a plot. He fails to recognize that some novels are plot-driven and others are character-centered. Clearly Dante prefers to read the former and feels justified in imposing his preference on all of us. There are many readers who do not require a story to propel us feverishly from one action-packed moment to the next. We are content to get to know an interesting character who encounter challenges and tries various ways to overcome them.Violet Wang is a wonderful example of this type of character, and we are fortunate that the novel is told from her point of view. We first experience her world in San Francisco, where she is surrounded by Chinese American traditions and the support of an extended family. We feel her confusion and traumatic sense of loss as she must leave all that is familiar to her.When Violet arrives in the area that will be her new home, we see its beauty and mystery through her eyes. As she tries to adjust to life in a place where she feels like an outsider, many of us may remember similar times in our own lives. We ache when she hurts and feel triumph in our hearts when she experiences progress.I won't tell you why. Violet has had to make such a drastic life change or how she comes to terms with it. Unlike Dante, I think that most readers would greatly enjoy this book. In these times of action-adventure movies and computer games, many have lost the patience to be readers, thinkers, and emotional beings. I think that someone who fails to see the value in this book is missing out on a lot.21 When Olga read Rachel Blythe's review, she probably felt______.(A)encouraged(B)indifferent(C)confused(D)depressed22 Which of these is the best summary of the passage?(A)Voicing his disappointment in Adele Kwan's latest novel, Carlo Dante writes a book review criticizing the book as uninteresting lacking in plot.(B)To help her decide whether to purchase Adele Kwan's new book, The Newcomer, Olga reads opposing book reviews in her high school newspaper.(C)As a supporter of character-centered novels, Rachel Blythe writes a book review defending Adele Kwan's The Newcomer because she feels many people will enjoy the book.(D)Olga enjoys the character-centered books of Adele Kwan and would like to read another one if it is interesting and is written in the same style.23 Based on information in the reviews, with which statement would both Carlo Dante and Rachel Blythe probably agree?(A)The Newcomer is an action-adventure story.(B)Violet is outgoing, even around strangers.(C)The Newcomer is a powerful and captivating book.(D)Violet has a strong bond with family members.24 Which conclusion is best supported by information in the passage?(A)Rachel Blythe and Olga have similar reading tastes.(B)Adele Kwan is a best-selling author.(C)Rachel Blythe does not read novels that are plot-driven.(D)Violet has become more outspoken since her move.25 Based on information in the passage, the reader can conclude Violet's primary source of conflict stems from her______.(A)not being fluent in Chinese(B)difficulties with her schoolwork(C)parents being extremely strict(D)family's move to Washington State25 My objective is to analyze certain forms of knowledge, not in terms of repressionor law, but in terms of power. But the word power is apt to lead to misunderstandings about the nature, form, and unity of power. By power, I do not mean a group of institutions and mechanisms that ensure the subservience of the citizenry. I do not mean, either, a mode of subjugation that, in contrast to violence, has the form of the rule. Finally,I do not have in mind a general system of domination exerted by one group over another,a system whose effects, through successive derivations, pervade the entire social body. The sovereignty of the state, the form of law, or the overall unity of a domination are only the terminal forms power takes.It seems to me that power must be understood as the multiplicity of force relations that are immanent in the social sphere; as the process that, through ceaseless struggle and confrontation, transforms, strengthens, or reverses them; as the support that these force relations find in one another, or on the contrary, the disjunctions and contradictions that isolate them from one another, and lastly, as the strategies in which they take effect, whose general design or institutional crystallization is embodied in the state apparatus, in the formulation of the law, in the various social hegemonies.Thus, the viewpoint that permits one to understand the exercise of power, even in its more "peripheral" effects, and that also makes it possible to use its mechanisms as a structural framework for analyzing the social order, must not be sought in a unique source of sovereignty from which secondary and descendent forms of power emanate but in the moving substrate of force relations that, by virtue of their inequality, constantly engender local and unstable states of power. If power seems omnipresent, it is not because it has the privilege of consolidating everything under its invincible unity, but because it is produced from one moment to the next, at every point, or rather in every relation from one point to another. Power is everywhere, not because it embraces everything, but because it comes from everywhere. And if power at times seems to be permanent, repetitious, inert, and self-reproducing, it is simply because the overall effect that emerges from all these mobilities is a concatenation that rests on each of them and seeks in turn to arrest their movement. One needs to be communalistic, no doubt; power is not an institution, and not a structure; neither is it a certain strength we are endowedwith; it is the name that one attributes to a complex strategic situation in a particular society.26 The author's primary purpose in defining power is to______.(A)counteract self-serving and confusing uses of the term(B)increase comprehension of the term by providing concrete examples(C)demonstrate how the meaning of the term has evolved(D)avoid possible misinterpretations resulting from the more common uses of the term27 According to the passage, which of the following best describes the relationship between law and power?(A)Law is the protector of power.(B)Law is the source of power.(C)Law sets bounds to power.(D)Law is a product of power.28 Which of the following methods is NOT used extensively by the author in describing his own conception of power?(A)Restatement of central ideas.(B)Provision of concrete examples.(C)Analysis and classification.(D)Comparison and contrast.29 The author's attitude toward the various kinds of compulsion employed by social institutions is best described as______.(A)concerned and sympathetic(B)scientific and detached(C)suspicious and cautious(D)reproachful and disturbed30 It can be inferred from the passage that the author believes the conflict among social forces to be(A)essentially the same from one society to another even though its outward manifestation may seem different(B)usually the result of misunderstandings that impede social progress(C)an inevitable feature of the social order of any state(D)best moderated in states that possess a strong central government30 Within hours of appearing on television to announce the end of conscription, President Jacques Chirac moved quickly to prevent any dissent from within the military establishment. Addressing more than 500 military staff officers at the military academy in Paris yesterday, Mr. Chirac said clearly that he "expected" their loyalty in the work of rebuilding France's national defense.He understood their " legitimate concerns, questions and emotions" at the reforms, but added, "You must understand that there is not and never has been any rigid model for French defense. Military service has been compulsory for less than a century. Realism required that our armed forces should now be professional. "The President's decision to abolish conscription over a period of six years removes a rite of passage for young Frenchmen that has existed since the Revolution, even though obligatory national service only became law in 1905. As recently as 1993 , an opinion poll showed that more than 60% of French people said they feared the abolition of conscription could endanger national security. A poll conducted this month, however, showed that 70% of those asked favored ending of practice, and on the streets and offices yesterday, the response to Mr. Chirac's announcement was generally positive.Among people who completed their 10-month period of national service in the last few years or were contemplating the prospect, there was almost universal approval, tempered by a sense that something hard to define—mixing with people from other backgrounds, a formative experience, a process that encouraged national or social cohesion—might be lost.Patrick, who spent his year in the French city of Valance assigning and collecting uniforms, and is now a computer manager, said he was in tears for his first week, and hated most of his time. He thought it was "useless" as a form of military training-—"I only fired a rifle twice"—but, in retrospect, useful for learning how to get on with people and instilling patriotism.As many as 25% of those liable for military service in France somehow avoid it—the percentage is probably much greater in the more educated and higher social classes.According to Geoffroy, a 26-year-old reporter, who spent his time in the navy with the information office in central Paris, the injustice is a good reason for abolishing it. People with money or connections, he said, can get well-paid assignments abroad. "It's not fair, some do it, some don't. "Several expressed support for the idea of a new socially-oriented voluntary service that would be open to both men and women. But the idea seemed less popular among women.

Governments, both absolutist and republican, deported him from their territories. Bourgeois, whether conservative or ultra-democratic, vied with one another in heaping slanders upon him. All this he brushed aside as though it were cobweb, ignoring it, answering only when extreme necessity compelled him. And he died beloved, revered and mourned by millions of revolutionary fellow-workers—from the mines of Siberia to California, in all parts of Europe and America—and I make bold to say that though he may have had many opponents he had hardly one personal enemy.37 On the top shelf of the case are some English works, among which may be mentioned Canterbury Tales by Geoffrey Chaucer, The Pilgrim's Progress by John Bunyan, The History of Tom Jones, a Foundling by Henry Fielding, Ivanhoe by Sir Walter Scott, The Old Curious Shop by Charles Dickens, Vanity Fair by William Thackeray, Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte, The Mill on the Floss by George Eliot, The Way of all Flesh by Samuel Butler, The Return of the Native by Thomas Hardy, The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Stevenson, The Picture of Dorian Grey by Oscar Wilde, The Man of Property by John Galsworthy, and Major Barbara by Bernard Shaw.四、汉译英38 Translate the following passage into English.

According to a recent study; the more you struggle while you are teaming new information, the better you can remember it later.It was Kapur who came up with the idea that struggling can lead to better learning. Then he tested it out on students in Singapore. He separated students into two groups, with students in the first group asked to solve math problems with the teacher's help and those in the second group to solve the same problems by helping one another, instead of getting help from the teacher.With the teacher's help, students in the first group were able to find the correct answers. Students in the second group did not solve the problems correctly, but they did come;up with a lot of good ideas.The students were then tested on what they had learned. The group without any help from a teacher scored much higher than the group who had help. Kapur said working to find the answers helped students understand the process; not just the solution.Kapur's advice for students is to put a lot of effort into teaming something new rather than going to your teacher for help. "Simply doing a little work or nothing at all won't work," says Kapur."The struggle needs to be a genuine attempt to figure out a problem in as many ways as possible:'33. The author introduces the findings of the experiment in Paragraph I in order toA) arouse the reader's interest in the passage B) stress the necessity of the teacher's helpC) make the experiment more believable D) explain how our memory functions34. It can be learned from the experiment that the students solving the math problems independentlyA) failed to get any help from each otherB) learned less than the group with the teacher's helpC) Teamed more than the group with the teacher's helpD) failed to come up with any good ideas35. Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A) Students' memory of new information can be enhanced by struggling on their own.B) The students in both groups looked to teachers for help when they had problems.C) As long as the students struggle with their study, they can get correct answers.D) Those who did schoolwork on their own scored lower than those who didn't.36. According to Kapur, it is important for students to, pay attention toA) the help from teachers B) the solution to problemsC) the process of learning D) the scores of tests37. This passage might most probably come fromA) a work of science fiction B) a government fileC) a novel D) a reportPassage twoQuestions 38 to 42 are based on the following passage.Would the world be more peaceful if women were in charge? A challenging new book by the Harvard University psychologist Steven Pinker says that the answer is `yes."In The Better Angels of Our Nature Pinker presents data showing that human violence, while still very much with us today, has been gradually dropping. Moreover, he says, 0over the long history, women have been and will be a pacifying(实现和平的)force. Traditional war is a man's game: tribal(部落的)women never get together to attack neighboring villages." As mothers,women tend to maintain peaceful conditions in which to raise their children.Those with different opinions immediately reply that women have not made war simply because they have rarely been in power. If they had the power as leaders, the tough conditions of the world would force them to make the same decisions that men do. Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, and Indira Gandhi were powerful women; all of them led their countries to war.But it is also true that these women rose to leadership by playing according to the political rules of "a man's world." It was their success in conforming to male values that enabled their rise to leadership in the first place. If women held half of leadership positions, they might behave differently in power.So we are left with the broader question: does gender really matter in leadership? Various psychological studies show that men incline towards the hard power of command, while women are collaborative(协作的)and instinctively understand the soft power of attraction and persuasion.38. Pinker's book The Better Angels of Our Nature mainly discussesA) women's psychological state B) women's function in societyC) women's desire for power D) women's tendency for peace39. Margaret Thatcher, Golda Meir, and Indira Gandhi are mentioned as examples to show thatA) women function as a pacifying force B) women in power tend to win warsC) Pinker reaches a right conclusion D) Pinker's opinion is not correct40. What is the attitude of the author of this passage according to Paragraph 4?A) He agrees that women should conform to male values.B) He is inclined to think that women are a pacifying force.C) He thinks that women would not make political rules.D) He believes that women would make no difference.41.The word "gender" (line 1, last paragraph) is closest in meaning toA) peace B) sex C) power D) violence42. According to psychological studies, the main difference between men and women in power lies in .A) their motive for power of commandC) their attitude towards human violenceB) their tendency to apply power they haveD) their preferred conditions to raise childrenPassage ThreeQuestions 43 to 47 are based on the following passage.A boat rocks gently in the warm, clear water off the coast of Lizard Island. At night, researchers on board the boat lower into the ocean three large iron traps with raw chicken inside. Video cameras are attached to the traps. The researchers watch and take note of how many nautiluses(鹅鹉螺),attracted to the meat, swim past the traps overnight: In the~ morning, the team palls the traps back onto the boat. They measure, tag and photograph captured nautiluses before releasing them.Scientist Peter Ward, of the University of Washington, is leading the study. "We need to know how many nautiluses there are," he said.Why does the number or creatures matter:Information collected around the world by Ward and Other scientists will help to show if the nautilus is threatened and if the animal should be listed as an endangered species.Nautiluses have survived for million years. But some scientists fear that the animals maybe in danger of disappearing. Humans have been killing the animal for its unique shell.The inside of the shell is pearl-colored(珍珠色的)and forms a perfect shape. It i' uses场make decorations and jewelry.A report showed that the annual number of nautilus-shell products was alarmingly high.So Ward came up with a plan to study and count nautiluses. Four more seagoing research trips are expected fo take place in the months ahead.There is much to learn. "We're really at the tip of the iceberg(冰山)," De Angelis, of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, says.43. In order to study nautiluses, the scientists have to tempt them withA) meat B) cameras C) rocks D) traps44. The first paragraph is used mainly to describeA) how researchers feed nautiluses B) what tools are used to get nautilusesC) how researchers study nautiluses D) what attracts nautiluses to the traps-45. Humans capture nautiluses because theyA) have pearls inside their shells B) are easy to captureC) have very special decorative shells D) are rare and delicious46. The reason why Ward made a plan to study nautiluses is thatA) nautiluses had been proved to be threatened B) there were too many nautiluses killedC) nautilus was listed as an endangered species D) the number of nautiluses was growing47. What does De Angelis mean by saying "We're really at the tip of the iceberg,in the lastparagraph?A) Their scientific research is at the leading level.B) The scientists are confronted with a critical situation.C) There is a long way to go to see the whole iceberg.D) The scientists know only a little about nautiluses.Passage FourQuestions 48 to 52 are Eased on the following passage.Chinese young people are becoming more environmentally aware .The trend is significant enough to influence global business strategies, according to a report by. BusinessGreen, a digital publishes on environmental issues.The research was based on a survey of 2,800 young people across six countries.

"Sixty percent of young adults questioned in China would stop buying a product if its manufacturer refined to commit to measuring and reducing its carbon footprint, compared to just 35 percent of those in the US,"Delay said. "It is the Chinese. not the US consumer .who really holds the demand for new. low-carbon products to deliver an economy.48.

A civil servant she had withstood; but when Dr. Grant himself went out with an umbrella, there was nothing to be done but to be very much a-shamed, and to get into the house as fast as possible; and to poor Miss Crawford, who had just been contemplating the dismal rain in a very desponding state of mind, sighing over the ruin ofall her plan of exercise for that morning, and of every chance of seeing a single creature beyond themselves for the next twenty-four hours, the sound of a little bustle at the front door, and the sight of Miss Price dripping with wet in the vestibule, was delightful. The value of an event on a wet day in the country was most forcibly brought before her. She was all alive again directly, and among the most active in being useful to Fanny, in detecting her to be wetter than she would at first allow, and providing her with dry clothes; and Fanny, after being obliged to submit to all this attention, and to being assisted and waited on by mistresses and maids, being also obliged, on returning downstairs, to be fixed in their drawing-room for an hour while the rain continued, the blessing of something fresh to see and think of was thus extended to Miss Crawford, and might carry on her spirits to the period of dressing and dinner.汉译英32 人生据说是一部大书。

Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.Two 12-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they'd rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water. The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves."Everything went quiet in my head," Tim recalls(回忆). "I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line."Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. "At one point, I considered turning back," he says. "I wondered if I was putting my life at risk." After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, "Take down the umbrella!"Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him."Let's aim for the pier(码头)," Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. "Can you guys swim?" he cried. "A little bit," the boys said. Once the were in the water, Tim decided it would he safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swan toward land as water washed over the boys' faces.“Are we almost there?" they asked again and again. "Yes," Tim told them each time.After 30minutes, they reached the pier.35.

McCormick, 57, was convicted(判罪) of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London."Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people," Judge Richard Hone told McCormick. "you have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt."The detectors, sold for up to $42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombs under water and from the air. But in fact they "lacked any grounding in science" and were of no use.McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya, the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand."I never had any had results from customers," he said.39. Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?A. He sold bombs.B. He caused death of people.C. He made detectors.D. He cheated in business.40. According to the judge, what McCormick had done _______.A. increased the cost of safeguardingB. lowered people's guard against dangerC. changed people's idea of social securityD. caused innocent people to commit crimes41. Which of the following is true of the detectors?A. They have not been sold to Africa.B. They have caused many serious problems.C. They can find dangerous objects in water.D. They don't function on the basis of science.42. It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick _______.A. sold the equipment at a low priceB. was well-known in most countriesC. did not think he had committed the crimeD. had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the textDHome to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia(怀旧). It's fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You'll realize what's changed is you. Home is where we ran remember pain, live, and some other experiences; We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here.If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween-when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents' room. It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime - waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property(住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived, I grew and I learned.Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings. I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom. But I don't mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home.43. Why does the author call her parents' bed her "safe zone"(Paragraph 3)?A. It is her favorite place to play.B. Her needs can be satisfied there.C. Her grandparents' photos are lined on each side.D. Her parents always play together with her there.44. What can be learned from the passage?A. The old furniture is still in the author's fist bedroom.B. The author can still visit her first physical mome in Los Angeles.C. The author's favorite room in her first home is the dining room.D. Many people of the author's age can still find their first physical homes.45. Sometimes when she feels lost, the author will _______.A. Open the window at nightB. lie down in bed to have a dreamC. try to bring back a sense of homeD. go to Los Angeles to visit her mom46. What is the author's purpose of writing this passage?A. To express how much she is attached to her home.B. To declare how much she loves her first house.C. To describe the state of her family.D. To look back on her childhood.EFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩) and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggest that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said: "Our study shows for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart."The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr Garfinkel said, "The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don't see - and guide whether we see fear."To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪) to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person's feeling of fear."We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear," Dr Garfinkel said."We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders, and also for those for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder."47. What is the finding of the study?A. One's heart affects how he feels fear.B. fear is a result of one's relaxed heartbeat.C. fear has something to do with one's health.D. Ones fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.48. The study was carried out by analyzing _______.A. volunteers' heartbeats when they saw terrible picturesB. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditionsC. volunteers' reactions to horrible pictures and data form their brain scansD. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication49. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "mechanism" in Paragraph 6?A. Order.B. system.C. Machine.D. Treatment.50.This study may contribute to _______.A. treating anxiety and stress betterB. explaining the cycle of fear and anxietyC. finding the sky to the heart-brain communicationD. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads第二节--James, can I have some black tea?--Sure, 51--Well, just a little, please.--Two teaspoons?-- 52 I have gained some weight these days.(Minutes later. )--How nice it is!-- 53--Yes, please.

Reading ComprehensionDirections: There are several passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.(30 %, 15×2 points)Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:The brain is the master organ of our body, and it is more complex than any machine ever constructed. It contains some 10,000 million nerve cells. They receive messages from the sense organs of the body to tell us what is going on around us.The brain also stores information from past experience. We are thus able to learn, remember and think. We can speak, solve difficult problems and produce creative ideas because of the amazing development of the human brain.An animal, such as a bird, is unable to think like us. It cannot solve problems. Its parents do not teach it how to build a nest. This is done by instinct. The bird is born with special cells in the brain, which enable it to do this.Enormous amounts of energy are needed to keep the vast number of cells of the brain working. Although it is only about 2 percent of the body’s weight, it uses 25 percent of the oxygen in the blood.The main parts of the brain are cerebrum, the cerebellum and the medulla. The outer, wrinkled part of the cerebrum is called the cortex. It receives sensations from the sense organs. These organs are the skin of the body, the eyes, the ears, the nose and the tongue. In addition, it controls the activity of the body's moving parts.16.What does the first paragraph discuss?A. The function of the human brain.B. The complexity of the human brain.C. The importance of nerve cells and sense organs.D. The storage of information from past experiences.17. In the second paragraph, what does "this" refer to?A. "thinking"B. "nest building"C. "problem solving"D. "remembering"18. According to the passage, what can we learn?A. The human brain is rather simplyconstructed.B. The human brain is the most important organ of the human body.C. The human brain is about 2 percent of the head's weight.D. The human brain uses 25 percent of the blood of our body.19. From the passage, which of the following is true?A. The cerebrum is the outer part of the cortex.B. The cortex gives sensation to the sense organs.C. The cortex controls a person's normal breathing.D. The skin of the body is one of the sense organs.20. What would be the best title for the passage?A. The Human BrainB. Functions of the Human BodyC. Between the Human Brain and the Animal BrainD. The Main Organs of the Human BodyQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:Studies by theCouncil of Europe, of which 21 countries are members, have shown that 45percent of reptile (爬行动物) species and 24 percent of butterflies are in danger ofdying out.European concern for wildlife was outlined by Dr. Peter Baum, an expert inthe environment and nature resources division of the council, when he spokeat a meeting arranged by the British national park.The park is one of the few areas in Europe to hold the council's diploma fornature reserves of the highest quality, and Dr. Baum had come to present the park with a diploma for its achievements. He clearly remained a strong view that natural environments needed to be allowed to survive in peace intheir own right. No area could be expected to survive both as a true nature reserve (自然保护区) and as atourist attraction (观光胜地), he went on. The short view that reserves had to serveimmediate human demands for outdoorrecreation should be replaced by fullacceptance of their importance as places to preserve nature for the future."We forget that they are the guarantee of life systems" Dr. Baum went on. "We could managewithout most industrial products, but we could not manage without nature.However, our natural environment areas, which are the original parts of ourcountryside, have become mere islands in a spoiled andpolluted land."21.Recent studies by the Council of Europe show that ________.A. it is only in Britain that wildlife needs more protectionB. all species of wildlife in Europe are in danger of dying outC. there are fewer species of reptiles and butterflies in Europe than elsewhereD. certain species of reptiles and butterflies in Europe need protecting22.Dr. Baum, a representative of the Council, visited one particular Britishnational park because ________.A. he was presenting the park with a diploma for its achievementsB. he was concerned about how the park was being runC. it was the only national park of its kind in EuropeD. it was the only park which had ever received a diploma from the Council23.Although it is difficult nowadays to convince the public of the importanceof nature reserves, Dr. Baum felt that ________.A. people would support moves to create more environment areasB. people would carry on supporting those national parks in existenceC. existing national parks would need to be more independent to surviveD. certain areas of countryside should be left undisturbed by man24.In Dr. Baum's opinion, a true nature reserve ________.A. could never survive in a modern ageB.should provide buildings for human activitiesC. should be regarded as a place where nature is protectedD. could provide special areas for tourists to enjoy25.Although we all depend on the resources of nature for our survival, ________.A. industrial products are replacing all our natural resourcesB. it is only on islands that nature survivesC. we have forgotten what our original countryside looks likeD. we have allowed areas of countryside to be spoilt by industrial developmentQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:Everything that is new or uncommon raises a pleasure in the imagination.And because it fills the soul with a pleasant surprise, satisfies itscuriosity, and gives it an idea which it did not possess before. We are toomuch familiar with one set of objects and tired out with so many repeated shows of the same things. And whatever is new or uncommon contributes alittle to vary human life with the strangeness of its appearance: it serves us for a kind of refreshment, and takes off that satiety (厌腻) we tend to complain of in our usual and ordinary entertainment.It is this variety thatgives our mind something new and relieves our attention from wasting itself on any particular object. It is this, likewise, thatimproves what is great or beautiful, and makes it afford our mind a doubleentertainment.Woods, fields, and grass are, at any season of the year, pleasant to look upon but never so much as in the beginning of the spring,when they are all new and fresh and not yet too much familiarto the eye. For this reason there is nothing that makes a view more interesting than rivers or sprays of water from fountains(喷泉), where the sceneisconstantly changing the sight every moment withsomething new. We are quickly tired with looking upon hills and valleys,where everything remains fixed and settled in the same place and manner, butfind ourthoughts a little excited and relieved at the sight of such objectsas are everin motion and sliding away from beneath our eyes.26. Which of the following contains the main idea of the passage?A. Whatever is new is more worthwhile than that which is old.B. Strangeness makes a thing fascinating.C. We must change the old for the new to achieve variety.D. We cannot evaluate the worth of an item until it is no longer new.27. Woods, fields, and grass are never so pleasant to look upon as in thebeginningof the spring because ______.A. they satisfy our curiosityB. they seem to us new and fresh after the long winter timeC. they are something strange to our eyesD. they fill our souls with a pleasant surprise28. The author find fountains fascinating because ______.A. of the beauty of their appearanceB. of the freshness of the waterC. of the movement of the waterD. of the beauty of nature29. The author's implied purpose in this passage is to ______.A. entertain the readerB. prevent the reader from making mistakesC. present an alternative viewD. improve the readers' sense of right and wrong30. Which of the following is true about the development of the ideas in this passage?A.It moves from one aspect to another by association.B.It moves from a hypothesis(假设) to an application of the hypothesis.C.It moves from event to event in a time sequence.D.It moves from a generalization to a series of observations toprove the generalization.Part III. ClozeDirections: There are a number of blanks in the following passage. For each blank there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should choose the ONE that best fits into the passage. Then mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre. (10%, 10×1 point)Most children with healthy appetites are ready to eat almost anything thatis offered them and a child rarely dislikes food 31 it is badly cooked.The waya meal is cooked and served is most important and an 32 served meal will often improve a child's appetite. Never ask a child whether he likesor dislikesa food and never 33 likes and dislikes in front of him orallow anybody else to do so. If the father says he hates fat meat or themother 34 vegetables in the child's hearing he is likely to copy this procedure. Take it 35 granted that he likes everything and he probably will. Nothing healthful should be omitted from the meal because of a 36 dislike. At meal times it is a goodidea to give a child a smallportion and let him 37 back for a second helping rather than give him as much as he is likely to eat all at once. Do not talk too much to the child 38 meal times, but let him get on with his food; and do not allow himto leave the table immediately after a meal or he will 39 learn toswallow his food so he can hurry back to his toys.

Looking out to the sea carefully, he saw a couple of kids in a rowboat were being pulled out to sea.Two-year-old boys, Christian and Jack, rowed out a boat to search for a football. Once they‟d rowed beyond the calm waters, a beach umbrella tied to the boat caught the wind and pulled the boat into open water.The pair panicked and tried to row back to shore. But they were no match for it and the boat was out of control.Tim knew it would soon be swallowed by the waves.“Everything went quite in my head,” Tim recalls(回忆). I was trying to figure out how to swim to the boys in a straight line.”Tim took off his clothes and jumped into the water. Every 500 yards or so, he raised his head to judge his progress. “At one point, I considered turning back,” he says. “I wondered if I was putting my life at risk.” After 30 minutes of struggling, he was close enough to yell to the boys, “Take down the umbrella!”Christian made much effort to take down the umbrella. Then Tim was able to catch up and climb aboard the boat. He took over rowing, but the waves were almost too strong for him.“Let‟s aim for the pier(码头),” Jack said. Tim turned the boat toward it. Soon afterward, waves crashed over the boat, and it began to sink. “Can you guys swim?” he cried. “A little bit,” the boys said.Once they were in the water, Tim decided it would be safer and faster for him to pull the boys toward the pier. Christian and Jack were wearing life jackets and floated on their backs. Tim swam toward land as water washed over the boys‟ faces.“Are we almost there?” they asked again and again. “Yes,” Tim told them each time.After 30 minutes, they reached the pier.35. Why did the two boys go to the sea?A. To go boat rowing.B. To get back their football.C. To swim in the open water.D. To test the umbrella as a sail.36. What does “it” in Paragraph 2 refer to?A.

They were washed to the pier by the waves.D. They were carried to the pier by Tim on his back.CLONDON —A British judge on Thursday sentenced a businessman who sold fake(假冒的)bomb detectors (探测器)to 10 years in prison, saying the man hadn‟t cared about potentially deadly consequenc es.It is believed that James McCormick got about $77.8 million from the sales of his detectors — which were based on a kind of golf finder — to countries including Iraq, Belgium and Saudi Arabia.McCormick, 57, was convicted(判罪)of cheats last month and sentenced Thursday at the Old Bailey court in London.“Your cheating conduct in selling a great amount of useless equipment simply for huge profit promoted a false sense of security and in all probability materially contributed to causing death and injury to innocent people,” Judge Richard Hone told McCormick. “You have neither regret, nor shame, nor any sense of guilt.”The detector, sold for up to $42,000 each, were said to be able to find such dangerous objects as bombsunder water and from the air. But in fact they “lacked any grounding in science” and we re of no use.McCormick had told the court that he sold his detectors to the police in Kenya, the prison service in Hong Kong, the army in Egypt and the border control in Thailand.“I never had any bad results from customers,” he said.39. Why was McCormick sentenced to prison?A. He sold bombs.B. He caused death of people.C. He made detectors.D. He cheated in business.40. According to the judge, what McCormick had done ________.A. increased the cost of safeguardingB. lowered people‟s guard against security.C. changed pe ople‟s idea of social security.D. caused innocent people to commit crimes.41. Which of the following is true of the detectors?A. They have not been sold to Africa.B. They have caused many serious problems.C. They can find dangerous objects in water.D. They don‟t function on the basis of science.42. It can be inferred from the passage that McCormick _______.A. sold the equipment at a low priceB. was well-known in most countriesC. did not think he had committed the crimeD. had not got such huge profit as mentioned in the textDHome to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia(怀旧). It‟s fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You‟ll realize what‟s changed is you. Home is where we can remember pain, love and some other experiences; we parted here; my parents met here; I won there championships here.If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It‟s empty, but it‟s where my earliest memories are.There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween — when I didn‟t want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents 'room. It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime — waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.I‟m lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property (住宅)on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived, I grew, and I learned.Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it‟s where I‟ll find my fami ly, my dogs, and my belongings. I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I‟ll be blamed by Mom. But I don‟t mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I‟m home.43. Why does the author call her parents bed her “safe zone”(Paragraph 3)?A. It is her favorite place to play.B. Her needs can be satisfied there.C. Her grandparents “photos are lined on each side.D. Her parents always play together with her there.44. What can be learned from the passage?A. The old furnitur e is still in the author‟s first bedroom.B. The author can still visit her first physical home in Los Angeles.C. The author‟s favorite room in her first home is the dining room.D. Many people of the author‟s age can still find their first physical homes.45. Sometimes when she feels lost, the author will.A. open the window at nightB. lie down in bed to have a dreamC. try to bring back a sense of homeD. go to Los Angeles to visit her mom46. What is the author‟s purpose of writing this passage?A. To express how much she is attached to her home.B. To declare how much she loves her first house.C. To describe the state of her family.D. To look back on her childhood.EFear may be felt in the heart as well as in the head, according to a study that has found a link between the cycles of a beating heart and the chance of someone feeling fear.Tests on healthy volunteers found that they were more likely to feel a sense of fear at the moment when their hearts are contracting(收缩)and pumping blood around their bodies, compared with the point when the heartbeat is relaxed. Scientists say the results suggested that the heart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it is at in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said, “Our study show for the first time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearful pictures in relation to our heart.The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown pictures of fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed when the heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and what we don‟t see —and guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)to show how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person‟s feeling of fear. “We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain …speak‟ to each other to change our feelings and reduce fear” Dr. Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dea lt with and ways that it could be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety, disorders, and also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”47. What is the finding of the study?A. One‟s heart affects how he feels fear.B. Fear is a result of one‟s relaxed heartbeat.C. Fear has something to do with one‟s health.D. One‟s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.48. The study was carried out by analyzing _______.A. volunteers‟ heartbeats when they saw terrible picturesB. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditionsC. volunteers‟ reactions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scansD. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication49. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?A. Order.B. System.C. Machine.D. Treatment.50. This study may contribute to _______.A. treating anxiety and stress betterB. explaining the cycle of fear and anxietyC. finding the key to the heart-brain communicationD. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads第二节根据对话内容,从对话后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

I purposely leave the window open at nightbecause I know I’ll be blamed by Mom. But I don’t mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I’m home.43.

Scientists say the results suggested that theheart is able to influence how the brain responds to a fearful event, depending on which point it isat in its regular cycle of contraction and relaxation.Sarah Garfinkel at the Brighton and Sussex Medical School said, “Our study show for thefirst time that the way in which we deal with fear is different depending on when we see fearfulpictures in relation to our heart.The study tested 20 healthy volunteers on their reactions to fear as they were shown picturesof fearful faces. Dr. Garfinkel said, “The study showed that fearful faces are better noticed whenthe heart is pumping than when it is relaxed. Thus our hearts can also affect what we see and whatwe don’t see---and guide whether we see fear.”To further understand this relationship, the scientists also used a brain scanner(扫描仪)toshow how the brain influences the way the heart changes a person’s feeling of fear.“We have found an important mechanism by which the heart and brain ‘speak’ to each o therto change our feelings and reduce fear” Dr. Garfinkel said.“We hope that by increasing our understanding about how fear is dealt with and ways that itcould be reduced, we may be able to develop more successful treatments for anxiety disorders,a nd also for those who may be suffering from serious stress disorder.”47. What is the finding of the study?A. One’s heart affects how he feels fear.B. Fear is a result of one’s relaxed heartbeat.C. Fear has something to do with one’s health.D. One’s fast heartbeats are likely to cause fear.48. The study was carried out by analyzing .A. volunteers’ heartbeats when they saw terrible picturesB. the time volunteers saw fearful pictures and their health conditionsC. volunteers’ reac tions to horrible pictures and data from their brain scansD. different pictures shown to volunteers and their heart-brain communication49. Which of the following is closest in meaning to “mechanism” in Paragraph 6?A. OrderB. SystemC. MachineD. Treatment.50. This study may contribute to .A. treating anxiety and stress betterB. explaining the cycle of fear and anxietyC. finding the key to the heart-brain communicationD. understanding different fears in our hearts and heads 第二节选项中有两项多余选项。

The most【C1】______people have memorized poetry; the most cultured have nurtured it. Poetry knows no【C2】______, neither culture, age, gender, nor religion. We can even make a case that poetry captures the【C3】______of the universe, the ebb and flow of the tides, the beat of the seasons, and the rise and fall of our breath. Why is poetry the【C4】______thing humanity has to a universal language? Because poetry 【C5】______the ear, mind, and soul. It satisfies our【C6】______for beauty through the power of its language. But poetry【C7】______more than mere pleasure. It also communicates【C8】______Good poetry offers food for the【C9】______"Poetry, " wrote the Nobel Prize-winning poet T. S.

Although poetry satisfies a deep human appetite,many people fear and【C17】______it, claiming it is obscure, as it is written by men and women out of【C18】______with the realities of life. In fact, from the earliest times, most poets have been people of【C19】______, deeply involved with the rhythms of life. Ben Jonson was a bricklayer and Robert Bums a farmer.

My story is a simple one. You have only got to figure to yourselves a girl in a bedroom with a pen in her hand. She had only to move that pen from left to right—from ten o'clock to one. Then it occurred to her to do what is simple and cheap enough after all—to slip a few of those pages into an envelope, fix a penny stamp in the corner, and drop the envelope into the red boxat the corner. It was thus that I became a journalist; and my effort was rewarded on the first day of the following month—a very glorious day it was for me—by a letter from an editor containing a cheque for one pound ten shillings and sixpence. B. What could be easier than to write articles? But wait a moment. Articles have to be about something. Mine, I seemed to remember, was about a novel by a famous man. And while I was writing this review, I discovered that if I were going to review books I should need to do battle with a certain phantom. And the phantom was a woman, and when I came to know her better I called her after the heroine of a famous poem "The Angel in the House". It was she who used to come between me and my paper when I was writing reviews. It was she who bothered me and wasted my time and so tormented me that at last I killed her. I will describe her as shortly as I can. She was intensely sympathetic. She was immensely charming. She was utterly unselfish. She excelled in the difficult arts of family life. She sacrificed herself daily. She was so constituted that she never had a mind or a wish of her own, but preferred to sympathize with the minds and wishes of others. Above all— I need not say it—she was pure. In those days every house had its angel. And when I came to write I encountered her with the very first words. The shadow of her wings fell on my page; I heard the rustling of her skirts in the room. Directly, that is to say, I took my pen in hand to review that novel by a famous man, she slipped behind me and whispered; "My dear, you are a young woman. You are writing about a book that has been written by a man. Be sympathetic; be tender; flatter; deceive; use all the arts and wiles of our sex. Never let anybody guess that you have a mind of your own. Above all, be pure. " And she made as if to guide my pen. I now record the one act for which I take some credit to myself. I turned upon her and caught her by the throat. I did my best to kill her. My excuse, if I were to be had up in a court of law, would be that I acted in self-defense. Had I not killed her she would have killed me. She would have plucked the heart of my writing. For, as I found, directly I put pen to paper, you can not even review a novel without having a mind of your own, without expressing what you think to be the truth about human relations, morality, sex. And all these questions, according to the Angel in the House, cannot be dealt with freely and openly by women; they must charm, they must conciliate, they must—to put it bluntly—tell lies if they are to succeed. Thus, whenever I felt the shadow of her wing or the radiance of her halo upon my page, I took up the inkpot and flung it at her. She died hard. Her fictitious nature was of great assistance to her. It is far harder to kill a phantom than a reality.(分数:18.00)(1).The author most likely describes "a girl in a bedroom" in Line 1 in Para. A in order to______.(分数:2.00)A.present a picture of herself as a fledgling writerB.describe the vulnerability of young woman writersC.bring to light the limits placed on young female journalistsD.demonstrate the economic feasibility of entering a career as a writer(2).The author raises the question "What could...articles?" in Line 1, Para.

B, "constituted" mostly nearly means______.(分数:2.00)A.creative and imaginativeB.devoted to being pureC.formally composedD.physically strong(4).The description of the Angel in the House(in Lines 7 - 11, Para.B.("She was... she was pure. ")reflects the author's______.(分数:2.00)A.feeling that the Angel's positive characteristics can be seen in a negative lightB.gratitude for the Angel's assistance in becoming a writerC.inability to achieve the ideal represented by the AngelD.desire to model herself after the Angel(5).In Line 11, Para. B, the author uses the expression "I need not say it" in order to suggest that______.(分数:2.00)A.the Angel's purity is too delicate a subject to discussB.although the Angel lacked free will, the author does notC.she presumes that readers will know the Angel was pureD.she is reluctant to admit that she is not as pure as the Angel(6).The word "directly" , as it is used in Lines 13 and 21, Para. B, could be replaced with which of the following words or phrases without a change in meaning?(分数:2.00)A.in a straight lineB.unswervinglyC.as soon asD.honestly(7).For what reason does the author fear the Angel's effect on her writing?(分数:2.00)A.She feels the Angel could induce her to focus on typically feminine subjects.B.She recognizes the Angel could prevent her expressing her opinions honestly.C.She thinks the Angel would deem writing an inappropriate career for a woman.D.She believes that the Angle will influence the plots of the stories she writes.(8).The author would most likely agree with which of the following statements?(分数:2.00)A.A woman writer should not always be completely truthful in her work.B.Women writers must inevitably work harder than male writers to achieve success.C.A writer is justified in committing acts of violence when her art is threatened.D.Writing requires an independence incompatible with traditional ideas of femininity.(9).In the last sentence of the passage, the author implies that______.(分数:2.00)A.one's imagination can be a powerful adversaryB.the influence of the Angel could never be escapedC.it was difficult to distinguish between fantasy and realityD.she came to realize that Angel ultimately helped her succeed as a writerThis passage is part of an introduction written by a well-known doctor and essayist for his 1996 book about rare neurological disorders. A. I am writing this with my left hand, although I am strongly right-handed. I had surgery to my right shoulder a month ago and am not permitted, not capable of, use of the right arm at this time. I write slowly, awkwardly—but more easily, more naturally, with each passing day. I am adapting, learning, all the while—not merely thisleft-handed writing, but a dozen other left-handed skills as well. I have also become very adept with my toes, to compensate for having one arm in a sling; I was quite off balance for a few days when the arm was first immobilized, but now I walk differently, I have discovered a new balance.I am developing different patterns, different habits... a different identity, one might say, at least in this particular sphere. There must be changes going on with some of the programs and circuits in my brain—altering synaptic weights and connectivities and signals(though our methods of brain imaging are still too crude to show these). B. Though some of my adaptations are deliberate, planned, and some are learned through trial and error(in the first week I injured every finger on my left hand), most have occurred by themselves, unconsciously, by reprogrammings and adaptations of which I know nothing(any more than I know, or can know, how I normally walk). Next month, if all goes well, I can start to readapt again, to regain a full(and "natural")use of the right arm, to reincorporate it back into my body image, myself, to become a dexterous human being once again. C. But recovery, in such circumstances, is by no means automatic, a simple processlike tissue healing—it will involve a whole nexus of muscular and postural adjustments, a whole sequence of new procedures(and their synthesis), learning, finding a new path to recovery. My surgeon, an understanding man who has had the same operation himself, said, "There are general guidelines, restrictions, recommendations. But all the particulars you will have to find out for yourself. " Jay, my physiotherapist, expressed himself similarly: " Adaptation follows a different path in each person. The nervous system creates its own paths. You're the neurologist—you must see this all time. " D. Nature's imagination, as physicist Freeman Dyson likes to say, is richer than ours, and he speaks, marvellingly, of this richness in the physical and biological worlds, the endless diversity of physical forms and forms of life. For me, as a physician, nature's richness is to be studied in the phenomena of health and disease, in the endless forms of individual adaptation by which human organisms, people adapt and reconstruct themselves when faced with the challenges and vicissitudes of life. E. Thus while one may be distressed by the trials of developmental disorders or disease, one may sometimes see them as creative too—for if they destroy particular paths, particular ways of doing things, they may force the nervous system into making other paths and ways, force on it an unexpected growth and evolution. This other side of development or disease is something I see, potentially, in almost every patient. That such radical adaptations can occur demands a view of the brain as dynamic and active rather than programmed and static, a supremely efficient adaptive system geared for evolution and change, ceaselessly adapting to the needs of the organism—its need, above all, to construct a coherent self and world, whatever defects or disorders of brain function befall it. That the brain is minutely differentiated is clear: there are hundreds of tiny areas crucial for every aspect of perception and behavior(from the perception of color and of motion to, perhaps, the intellectual orientation of the individual). The miracle is how they all cooperate, are integrated together, in the creation of a self. F. This sense of the brain's remarkable plasticity, its capacity for the most striking adaptations, not the least in the special(and often desperate)circumstance of neural or sensory mishap, has come to dominate my own perception of my patients and their lives. So much so, indeed, that I am sometimes moved to wonder whether it may be necessary to redefine the very concepts of "health" and "disease", to see these in terms of the ability of the organism to create a new organization and order, one that fits its special, altered disposition and needs, rather than in the terms of a rigidly defined "norm".(分数:22.00)(1).The author describes himself as "strongly right-handed"(Line 1, Para.A)to______.(分数:2.00)A.convey the ease with which he learned to be ambidextrousB.suggest the difficulties he had to overcomeC.evoke a sympathetic response from the readerD.characterize the sources of his physical strength(2).The author's remark in Lines 8-9, Para.

A condition for designing effective program to fight malnutrition is understanding the causes of the problem and recognizing how complex they are. Micronutrients IODINE(碘): some of the most rapid and important progress in UNICEF programs is in the area of salt iodization. The strategy of universal salt iodization(USI)has been widely accepted in all regions, and the goal of USI by end-1995 has been met in virtually all of Latin America and in many countries in other regions. During the year, a number of countries with a high prevalence of fording deficiency in which salt iodization was previously thought to be virtually impossible, such as Pakistan and Indonesia, started to iodizeat least half of all salt reaching consumers. To achieve this, UNICEF officers supported a range of innovative and flexible approaches, for example, the establishment of an "Iodized Salt Support Facility" in Pakistan, to provide training, supplies and quality control to the 800 or so small salt crushers in the country. Enormous progress was seen not only in getting iodine into salt but also in the promulgation of laws to give teeth to monitoring and quality control efforts. UNICEF, WHO and the International Council for the Control of Iodine Disorders(ICCID)sponsored a forum in 1995 to consider the iodine and monitoring challenges faced by countries in which salt is brought to market by many small producers rather than larger enterprises. A technical monograph on practical ways of monitoring salt iodization programs was developed jointly with WHO, ICCID and PAMM and widely distributed. Many UNICEF country programs are monitoring household availability of iodine salt, utilizing a simple test kit, as part of the Multi-Indicator Cluster Surveys being undertaken to assess progress in meeting the goals of the World Summit. VITAMIN A: WHO-UNICEF estimates now indicate that over 250 million children still suffer from vitamin A deficiency(VAD)with many million more at risk. The known effects of VAD on the immune system and thus on child mortality make this a high-priority challenge for UNICEF. In 1995 , UNICEF supported surveys of vitamin A status that resulted in widespread deficiency being recognized for the first time in Egypt, South Africa, Kenya and Botswana. With support from the Micronutrient Initiative in Canada, UNICEF launched projects in 14 countries that will enable innovation in systems of distribution of vitamin A supplements and improvements in monitoring the mortality and morbidity impact of supplementation. A number of countries are building on the successful experience of Guatemala in fortification of sugar with vitamin A. Bolivia and Brazil both launched sugar fortification with vitamin A on a pilot basis in 1995. In Namibia and South Africa, the feasibility of fortifying maize meal with vitamin A is being considered. UNICEF supports dietary diversification and the consumption of appropriate fruits and vegetables as one of the most potentially sustainable ways for communities to overcome micronutrient malnutrition. Research completed in 1995 with UNICEF assistance pointed to the need to pay further attention to the types of vegetables grown and the type of cooking in order to maximize the impact of home gardening on the vitamin A status of children. In Bangladesh, UNICEF is collaborating with Helen Keller International to assess the impact of a large home gardening project on the vitamin A status of mothers and young children. This information should help to ensure that future programs of this type are designed in the most cost-effective way. IRON: The statement on strategies for reducing iron deficiency anemia, developed and adopted by WHO and UNICEF in 1995, calls for general supplementation with iron in any population of pregnant women or young children where the prevalence of anemia exceeds 30%. The results of research trials investigating the impact on anemia of weekly iron supplements have started, to become available. Weekly iron or iron and vitamin A supplements now appear to be a feasible intervention to combat iron deficiency anemia on a population basis in some vulnerable groups. UNICEF supported a meeting, jointly with the Thrasher Research Fund and Cornell University, to explore ways of increasing the micronutrient content of foods commonly consumed in countries where micronutrient malnutrition is common. Plant breeders, soil scientist and human nutritionists met to consider the problem and agreed that the micronutrient content of foods had been neglected in the breeding of high yielding(green revolution)varieties of cereals such as rice. With the realization of tremendous importance of the micronutrient content of staple food crops to human development, plant breeders agreed that future breeding work should take micronutrient goals into account. The participants also called for research in other priority areas to exploit the potential food-based systems, including the development of programs and policies that influence the choices of consumers and producers to increase the supply and consumption of micronutrient-rich foods.
