2017年西南大学考研教育硕士(Ed.M)教育综合真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)

2017年西南大学考研教育硕士（Ed.M）教育综合真题试卷(题后含答案及解析)题型有：1. 名词解释题 2. 简答题 3. 论述题 4. 案例分析题1．《论语》正确答案：《论语》是专门记录孔子及其弟子言行的书。

《论语》是教育学萌芽时期的著作。

《论语》中零散的保存了很多具有教育价值的语录，供后人研究。

其中着重记录了孔子的教育思想，如“学而不思则罔，思而不学则殆”“知之为知之，不知为不知”“学而不厌，诲人不倦”等。

2．师生关系正确答案：(1)教学活动应该以学生为主体。

教学在本质上是特殊认识过程，是教师教学生认识的过程。

教学作为学生的个体认识过程，学生是主体，发挥着主体性。

没有学生主体，教学活动既无存在的意义，也不可能现实存在。

(2)教学活动也需要以教师为主导。

教学作为一种社会现象，体现一定的社会价值，存在着复杂的规律性联系，而学生作为培养对象，既不可能自觉实现社会要求，又难以按教学的规律去自主活动。

因此，教学活动必须由专门的教师来设计和组织。

教学必须由教师来领导，教师决定教学的方向、方法、内容、形式等。

(3)教师主导和学生主体是不可分割的。

①教师主导是对学生主体活动的领导，或者说，教师设计、组织的恰恰是学生认识教学内容这一活动。

②学生主体是教师主导下的主体，或者说，学生是在教师设计、组织的教学认识过程中充当主体，学生成为主体正是教师主导的体现和结果。

综上所述，教学中教师和学生的关系是：在师生的社会关系基础上教师为教学活动的主导、学生为教学认识的主体。

3．教育研究正确答案：教育研究是一种有目的、有计划、有步骤地采用多种方法去认识教育现象及其规律的创造性认识活动。

一般来说，教育研究的过程分为六个阶段。

(1)选题阶段。

选定课题包括提出问题和确定课题。

首先要判断问题本身的理论价值或应用价值；进而考虑研究人员的研究实力和学术兴趣；最后还须考虑资料、仪器、设备等物质条件。

(2)研究设计阶段。

研究计划的设计是整个研究工作中的重要一步。

2017年考研英语一翻译真题及答案解析

2017年考研英语一翻译真题及答案解析2017年考研英语考试已经结束!出国留学考研网在考后第一时间为大家提供2017年考研英语一翻译真题及答案解析，更多考研资讯请关注我们网站的更新!2017年考研英语一翻译真题及答案解析英语1文章明显偏学术，今年考察英语语言发展情况，文章选的英国文化教育协会，是雅思出题组织者。

它的主席叫大卫格兰多的一本书，叫《英语下一步》，他讲到整本书意思是英语将走向何处。

很有意思的是主席曾经这本书里说到了中文将以后成为世界语言。

英语1考题作为序言部分作为考题。

今年英语1总体难度和去年相比，刚刚过去2016年考研题稳中有一点点上升，没有任何难句出现，只是长句。

我认为稳中上升。

第一句话有一个单词难一点，(英文)，英语全球性主导地位。

翻译里没有考过。

(英文)主导地位考过，但是是阅读里经常出现，翻译都是可以的。

这句话基本意思说到了，说英语的人进一步扩大，这是一个(英文)状语从句。

后面跟着有迹象表明，是主句，表明的迹象是什么呢?从句，英语全球性主导地位在可预见地位将减弱。

fade(英文)略微有难度。

我对考研阅读没有那么熟，但是2000年出现过。

如果按照新东方老师关注的精读方法来学习有很好的效果。

第二句话讲到了大卫这个人分析，会终结一些人的(英文)，他们或许会认为英语全球性地位是如此稳定。

他们有一次词，是(英语)如此稳定，英国年轻一代不需要额外学习其他的语言能力。

但是会终结年轻一代的能力。

但是组织的时候要注意一下，有些人认为英语语言地位如此稳定，英国年轻人没有必要学习什么，但是大卫的观点会终结这些人的想法。

语序颠倒一下会更好。

48题，正在引入英语，引入小学课程，有一个单词，(英语)，这个单词是常见的一个单词，叫课程。

很多学校，很多国家把英语引入到小学课程，在小学会学课程都可以，把英语纳入小学课程。

但是英国小学生没有受到更多鼓励，鼓励他们更流利掌握其他语言。

fluency，这个单词稍微难掌握一些。

2017考研英语一翻译真题解析.doc Directions:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)The growth of the use of English as the world`s primary language for international communication has obviously been continuing for several decades.(46)But even as the number of English speakers expands further there are signs that the global predominance of the language may fade within the foreseeable future.Complex international, economic, technological and culture change could start to diminish the leading position of English as the language of the world market, and UK interests which enjoy advantage from the breath of English usage would consequently face new pressures. Those realistic possibilities are highlighted in the study presented by David Graddol(47)His analysis should therefore end any self-contentedness among those who may believe that the global position of English is so stable that the young generation of the United Kingdom do not need additional languagecapabilities.David Graddol concludes that moonlit English graduates face a bleak economic future as qualified multilingual youngsters from other countries are proving to have a competitive advantage over their British counterparts in global companies and organizations. Alongside that, (48)many countries are introducing English into the primary-school curriculum but British schoolchildren and students do not appear to be gaining greater encouragement to achieve fluency in other languages.If left to themselves, such trends will diminish the relative strength of the English language in international education markets as the demand for educational resources in languages, such as Spanish , Arabic or Mandarin grows and international business process outsourcing in other language such as Japanese, French and German, spreads.(49)The changes identified by David Graddol all present clear and major challenges to UK`s providers of English language teaching to people of other countries and to broader education business sectors. The English language teaching sector directly earns nearly &1.3 billion for the UK in invisible exports and our other education related exploresearn up to &10 billion a year more. As the international education market expands, the recent slowdown in the number of international students studying in the main English-speaking countries is likely to continue, especially if there are no effective strategic policies to prevent such slippage. The anticipation of possible shifts in demand provided by this study is significant:(50) It gives a basis to all organization which seek to promote the learning and very different operating environment. That is a necessary and practical approach. In this as in much else, those who wish to influence the future must prepare for it.【答案】(46)翻译：但是即使当下英语使用者的人群还在进一步扩大，有迹象表明：在可预见的未来，英语可能会逐渐失去其全球主导地位。

西南大学翻硕经验贴

r西南大学翻硕经验贴先自报家门吧，楼主本科就读于西安一所普通三本院校，专业英语（语言文学方向）。

在学校期间，也算是学习比较用功的学生。

专四79，通过了人事部三级笔译，拿了一年的国家，两年的励志奖学金。

说这些只是对自己英语水平的一个简单定位。

虽然这些不是衡量一个人英语水平的唯一标准，但也可以在选择考研学校时作为一个自身实力参考值。

当初选择西南大学时，就是根据自身的实际情况做出的选择。

因为我是一个求稳的人，不太喜欢冒险和刺激。

但是择校问题因人而异，就不多做讨论。

好了，现在切入正题，MTI，就是翻译硕士，分为笔译和口译方向。

西南大学应该只有笔译方向，她每年基本招收15个普通生（其中不包括推免生和少干生），所以最后应该招20几个学生吧。

每年报的学生人数不一样，所以我不清楚她的报录比。

西南大学翻硕笔译分初试和复试，初试成绩过了学校自己划的复试分数线，才可以进入复试。

接下来，我就谈一谈西南大学笔译初试的准备。

楼主的初试成绩是393，初试第一。

初试一共考四门科目，分别是政治，基础英语，翻译基础和百科知识与汉语写作。

政治：政治正式开始复习是在暑假，当时因为在家复习效率太低，就买了一个网课，跟着老师把肖秀荣的知识点精讲精那本书仔细的过了一遍，当然还有他的1000题。

暑假期间有陆续看一些百科，练一些翻译，但真的效率不高，所以九月一开学，就赶紧回了学校。

（我们学校大四没课，所以很幸运可以全身心复习考试。

），这里来点题外话，备战考研最好不要在家，除非自制力超强的大神，一般效果不好。

现在回来，回学校以后，政治就没有再看视频，太花时间。

我政治用的材料全部都是肖秀荣出的，感觉他的书讲的挺清楚的。

他的每本书我都看了三四遍，题也做了三四遍。

因为一般一遍两遍下来，你只能知道个大概，只有多看几遍，才能真的理解，这样记起来也轻松。

还有就是教育部出的政治考研大纲，俗称红宝书，以及风中劲草（这个是用来背大题的）。

我政治当时考了78分，有点高了，感觉政治花的时间有些偏多，这样不好，会耽误其他科目的复习。

London.Planning documents pledged that great legacy of the Games would be to lover a nation of sport lovers away from their couches.The population would be fitter,healthier and produce more winners.It

their own screen use.”Tech is designed to really suck you in”,says Jenny Radesky in her study of digital play,”and digital products are there to promote maximal engagement.It makes it hard to disengage,and leads to a lot of bleed-over into the family routine.”Radesky has studied the use of mobile phones and tablets at mealtimes by giving mother-child pairs a food-testing exercise.She found that mothers who used devices during the exercise started20percent fewer verbal and39percent fewer nonverbal interactions with their children.During a separate observation,she saw that phones became a source of tension in the family.Parents would be looking at their emails while the children would be making excited bids for their attention.Infants are wired to look at parents'faces to try to understand their world,and if those faces are blank and unresponsive—as they often are when absorbed in a device—it can be extremely disconcerting for the children.Radesky cites the“still face experiment”devised by developmental psychologist Ed Tronick in the1970s.In it,a mother is asked to interact with her child in a normalway before putting on blank express and not giving then any visual social feedback.The child becomes increasingly distressed as he tries to capture her mother's attention.“Parents don't have to be exquisitely present at all times,but there needs to be a balance and parents need to be responsive and sensitive to a child's verbal or nonverbal expressions of an emotional need,”says Radesky.On the other hand,Tronick himself is concerned that the worries about kids'use of screens are born out of an“oppressive ideology that demands that parents should always be interacting”with their children.It's based on a somewhat fantasised very white,very upper-middle-class ideology that says if you're failing to expose your child to30000words you are neglecting them.”Tronick believes that just because a child isn't learning from the screen doesn't mean there's no value to it—particularly if it gives parents time to have a shower,do housework or simply have a break from their child.Parents,he says,can get a lot of using their devicess to speak to a friend or get some work out of the way.This can make them feel happier which them be more available to their child the rest of the time26.According to Jenny Radesky,digital products are designed to_________.A.absorb user attentionB.increase work efficiencyC.simplify routine mattersD.better interpersonal relations27.Radesky's food-testing exercise shows that mothers'use of devices_________.A.take away babies'appetiteB.distracts children's attention.C.reduces mother-child communication.D.shows down babies'period development.28.Radesky cites the“still face experiment”to show that_________.A.it is easy for children to get used to blank expressionsB.parents need to respond to children's emotional needsC.verbal expressions are unnecessary for emotional exchangeD.children are insensitive to changes in their parents'mood29.The oppressive ideology mentioned by Tronick requires parents to_________.A.protect kids form exposure to wild fantasiesB.teach their kids at least30000words a yearC.remain concerned about kid use of screensD.ensure constant interaction with their children30.According to Tronick,kids'use of screens may_________.A.make their parents more creativeB.give their parents more free timeC.help them with their homeworkD.help them become more attentiveText3Today,widespread social pressure to immediately go to college in conjunction with increasingly high expectations in a fast-moving world often causes students to completelyoverlook the possibility of taking a gap year.After all,if everyone you know is going to college in the fall,it seems silly to stay back a year,doesn't it?And after going to school for12years,it doesn't feel natural to spend a year doing something that isn't academic.But while this may be true,it's not a good enough reason to condemn gap years.There's always a constant fear of falling behind everyone else on the socially perpetuated“race to the finish line,”whether that be toward graduate school,medical school or a lucrative career.But despite common misconceptions,a gap year does not impede the success of academic pursuits—in fact,it probably enhances it.Studies from the United States and Australia show that students who take a gap year are generally better prepared for and perform better in college than those who do not.Rather than pulling students back,a gap year pushes them ahead by preparing them for independence,new responsibilities and environmental changes—all things that first-year students often struggle with the most.Gap year experiences can lessen the blow when it comes to adjusting to college and being thrown into a brand new environment,making it easier to focus on academics and activities rather than acclimation blunders.If you're not convinced of the inherent value in taking a year off to explore interests,then consider its financial impact on future academic choices.According to the National Center for Education Statistics,nearly80percent of college students end up changing their majors at least once.This isn't surprising,considering the basic mandatory high school curriculum leaves students with a poor understanding of the vast academic possibilities that await them in college.Many students find themselves listing one major on their college applications,but switching to another after taking college classes.It's not necessarily a bad thing,but depending on the school,it can be costly to make up credits after switching too late in the game.At Boston College,for example,you would have to complete an extra year were you to switch to the nursing school from another department.Taking a gap year to figure things out initially can help prevent stress and save money later on.31.One of the reasons for high-school graduates not taking a gap year is that______.A.they think it academically misleadingB.they have a lot of fun to expect in collegeC.it feels strange to do differently from othersD.it seems worthless to take off-campus courses32.Studies from the US and Australia imply that taking a gap year helps________.A.keep students from being unrealisticB.lower risks in choosing careersC.ease freshmen's financial burdensD.relieve freshmen of pressures33.The word“acclimation”(Line8，Para.3)is closest in meaning to_______.A.adaptationB.applicationC.motivationpetition34.A gap year may save money for students by helping them________.A.avoid academic failuresB.establish long-term goalsC.switch to another collegeD.decide on the right major35.The most suitable title for this text would be___________.A.In Favor of the Gap YearB.The ABCs of the Gap YearC.The Gap Year Comes BackD.The Gap Year：A DilemmaText4Though often viewed as a problem for western states,the growing frequency of wildfires is a national concern because of its impact on federal tax dollars,Professor Moritz and others say.In2015,the US Forest Service for the first time spent more than half of its$5.5billion annual budget fighting fires–nearly double the percentage it spent on such efforts20years ago. In effect,fewer federal funds today are going towards the agency's other work–such as forest conservation,watershed and cultural resources management,and infrastructure upkeep–that affect the lives of all Americans.Another nationwide concern is whether public funds from other agencies,such as the Department of Housing and Urban Development,are going into construction in fire-prone districts.As Moritz puts it,how often are federal dollars building homes that are likely to be lost to a wildfire?“It's already a huge problem from a public expenditure perspective for the whole country,”he says.“We need to take a magnifying glass to that.Like,‘Wait a minute, is this OK?'Do we want instead to redirect those funds to concentrate on lower-hazard parts of the landscape?”Such a pivot would require a corresponding shift in the way US society today views fire, researchers say.For one thing,conversations about wildfires need to be more inclusive.Over the past decade, the focus has been on climate change–how the warming of the Earth from greenhouse gases (including human carbon emissions)is leading to conditions that exacerbate fires.While climate is a key element,Moritz says,it shouldn't come at the expense of the rest of the equation.“The human systems and the landscapes we live on are linked,and the interactions go both ways,”he says.Failing to recognize that,he notes,leads to“an overly simplified view of what the solutions might be.Our perception of the problem and perception of what the solution is becomes.very limited.”At the same time,people continue to treat fire as an event that needs to be wholly controlled and unleashed only out of necessity,says Professor Balch at the University of Colorado.But acknowledging fire's inevitable presence in human life is an attitude crucial to developing the laws,policies,and practices that make it as safe as possible,she says.“We've disconnected ourselves from living with fire,”Balch says.“It is really important to understand and try and tease out what is the human connection with fire.today.”36.More frequent wildfires have become a national concern because in2015they__________.A.exhausted unprecedented management effortsB.consumed a record-high percentage of budgetC.severely damaged the ecology of western statesD.caused a huge rise of infrastructure expenditure37.Moritz calls for the use of“a magnifying glass”to____________.A.raise more funds for fire-prone areasB.avoid the redirection of federal moneyC.find wildfire-free parts of the landscapeD.guarantee safer spending of public funds38.While admitting that climate is a key element，Moritz notes that__________.A.public debates have not settled yetB.fire-fighting conditions are improvingC.other factors should not be overlookedD.a shift in the view of fire has taken place39.The overly simplified view Moritz mentions is a result of failing to___________.A.discover the fundamental makeup of natureB.explore the mechanism of the human systemsC.maximize the role of landscape in human lifeD.understand the interrelations of man and nature40.Professor Balch points out that fire is something man should____________.A.do away withe to terms withC.pay a price forD.keep away fromPart BDirections:Read the following text and match each of the numbered items in the left column to its corresponding information in the right column.There are two extra choices in the right column.Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(10points)The decline in American manufacturing is a common refrain，particularly from Donald Trump.“We don't make anything anymore,”he told Fox News，while defending his own made-in-Mexico clothing line.Without question，manufacturing has taken a significant hit during recent decades，and further trade deals raise questions about whether new shocks could hit manufacturing.But there is also a different way to look at the data.Across the country，factory owners are now grappling with a new challenge：instead of having too many workers，they may end up with too few.Despite trade competition and outsourcing，American manufacturing still needs to replace tens of thousands of retiring boomers every lennials may not be that interested in taking their place，other industries are recruiting them with similar or better pay.For factory owners，it all adds up to stiff competition for workers—and upward pressure on wages.“They're harder to find and they have job offers，”says Jay Dunwell，president of Wolverine Coil Spring，a family-owned firm，“They may be cominginto the workforce]，but they've been plucked by other industries that are also doing an well as manufacturing，”Mr.Dunwell has begun bringing high school juniors to the factory so they can get exposed to its culture.At RoMan Manufacturing，a maker of electrical transformers and welding equipment that his father cofounded in1980，Robert Roth keep a close eye on the age of his nearly200workers，fiveare retiring this year.Mr.Roth has three community-college students enrolled in a work-placement program，with a starting wage of$13an hour that rises to$17after two years.At a worktable inside the transformer plant，young Jason Stenquist looks flustered by the copper coils he's trying to assemble and the arrival of two visitors.It's his first week on the job.Asked about his choice of career，he says at high school he considered medical school before switching to electrical engineering.“I love working with tools.I love creating.”he says.But to win over these young workers，manufacturers have to clear another major hurdle：parents，who lived through the worst US economic downturn since the Great Depression，telling them to avoid the lennials“remember their father and mother both were laid off.They blame it on the manufacturing recession，”says Birgit Klohs，chief executive of The Right Place，a business development agency for western Michigan.These concerns aren't misplaced：Employment in manufacturing has fallen from17million in 1970to12million in2013.When the recovery began，worker shortages first appeared in the high-skilled trades.Now shortages are appearing at the mid-skill levels.“The gap is between the jobs that take to skills and those that require a lot of skill，”says Rob Spohr，a business professor at Montcalm Community College.“There're enough people to fill the jobs at McDonalds and other places where you don't need to have much skill.It's that gap in between，and that's where the problem is.”Julie Parks of Grand Rapids Community points to another key to

1. Margaret Thatcher saw herself, and was seen, as an essential partner of two American presidents. She stoutly defended nuclear deterrence when she thought her friend and ideological soulmate, Ronald Reagan, was getting carried away in talks with the Russians.Tony Blair pushed NATO and Bill Clinton into military action in Kosovo. Ill-fated though the later invasion of Iraq proved, Mr. Blair was never an American poodle. He believed that Britainshould be in the first rank of countries prepared to counter the threat of Saddam Hussein’s supposed weapons of mass destruction. Even the maligned Gordon Brown co-ordinated theinter national response to the financial crash of 2008.2. The history of economics has been, among other things,a story of learning to care less about land. The physiocrats of 18th-century France saw it as the primary guarantor of wealth. Adam Smith included it alongside labour and capital as one of the three factors of production that combined to generate output. A little later Thomas Malthus saw its innate scarcity as ensuring eventual catastrophe in the face of exponential population growth. Instead of succumbing to catastrophe Western countries found ways to work around land’s scarcity, some of them ingenious —skyscrapers, artificial fertiliser, railways, suburbs —and some nefarious —dispossessing the oppressed and colonised. Improved transport allowed land farther off to do the work that land close at hand had done before, whether by producing crops half way round the world or housing workers out in the suburbs.3. In a surprise televised address on Tuesday night, Modi said the demonetisation of India’s highest-value banknotes, worth about £6 and £12,would start from midnight. The move is an effort to close down the booming economy of untaxed cashtransactions, which allows corruption, the funding of terrorist groups, and keeps counterfeit notes in circulation. Addressing the nation, Modi said: “The exchange of 500 and 1,000 rupee notes being tendered as currency will bestopped from today. Black marketeers and traitors who use black money will notbe able to move large amounts of money and 500 and 1,000 rupee notes will become worthless pieces of paper. Those citizens earning honestly and with hardwork, their interests will be protected.”4.The decision to delay the leadership election nearly two weeks and possibly put up a challenger to Pelosi is a sign of how deeply Democrats are soul-searching after last week’s election that saw Republicans win control of the White House and retain its majority in the Senate and House. While Pelosi became the first female speaker of the House in 2006 and had a huge hand in winning passage of the Affordable Care Act, Democrats havenever fully recovered under her leadership from losing 63 seats in the 2010 midterm election. They have remained in the minority ever since.5. Trump galvanized white voters without college degrees, particularly in the Rust Belt; Clinton’s team calculated that this bloc was a lost cause and could be ignored in favor of focusing on her base and trying topersuade white-collar voters she was the less risky choice. Bill Clinton reportedly agitated for the campaign to pay more attention to the “bubbas”that had oncebeen his base, only to be rebuffed by a campaign staff that believed his worldview was out of date.汉译英主要是政治类题材，领导人讲话之类的（主题有官德、安全、对当前局势的表述、一带一路，还有另外一个啥）。

2017年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试英语答案及解析

2017年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试英语答案及解析1A．BesidesB．UnlikeC．ThroughoutD．Despite【答案】A【解析】根据本句句内逻辑关系，“it turns out that hugs…”说明拥抱还有其他结果。

因此，前文的逻辑关系应该为“除此以外”，结合选项，A．Besides（除此之外）最为合适。

2A．equalB．restrictedC．connectedD．inferior【答案】C【解析】本题实为逻辑关系题。

根据句子前后结构“helping you feel close and _____（2）”，我们可以判断，由于空格处与前面内容通过and连接，说明我们要选择一个单词与feel close 同义，并且要与后面介词to 连用。

因此，通过对于四个选项含义判断，C选项有“关联的”含义最为符合。

3A．viewB．hostC．lessonD．choice【答案】B【解析】此题为固定搭配。

“a host of”表示大量的。

其他选项搭配不合理。

4A．avoidB．forgetC．recallD．keep【答案】A【解析】根据题干信息“a warm embrace might even help you _____（4）getting sick this winter.”中，出现“even”，表示“甚至”，说明此句话与上一句话存在递进的逻辑关系。

上一句话的语义表示“拥抱可以带来大量的好处”，因此，这句话也应该表示拥抱的好处。

根据四个选项含义，A．avoid（避免）B．forget（忘记）C．recall（回忆）D．keep（保持），A选项“避免生病”最符合文意。

5A．collectingB．affectingC．guidingD．involving【答案】D【解析】本题考查现在分词做后置定语，需要选择一个现在分词修饰前面的“study”，因此，结合四个选项A．collecting（收集）B．affecting（影响）C．guiding(引导)D．involving （涉及、卷入），根据句子含义，应该表达“关于涉及400人”的研究。

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. （40 points）Text 1Every Saturday morning, at 9 am, more than 50,000 runners set off to run 5km around their local park. The Parkrun phenomenon began with a dozen friends and has inspired 400 events in the UK and more abroad. Events are free, staffed by thousands of volunteers. Runners range from four years old to grandparents; their times range from Andrew Baddeley's world record 13 minutes 48 seconds up to an hour. Parkrun is succeeding where London's Olympic "legacy" is failing. Ten years ago on Monday, it was announced that the Games of the 30th Olympiad would be in London.Planning documents pledged that the great legacy of the Games would be to level a nation of sport lovers away from their couches. The population would be fitter, healthier and produce more winners. It has not happened. The number of adults doing weekly sport did rise, by nearly 2 million in the run－up to 2012－but the general population was growing faster. Worse, the numbers are now falling at an accelerating rate. The opposition claims primary school pupils doing at least two hours of sport a week have nearly halved. Obesity has risen among adults and children. Official retrospections continue as to why London 2012 failed to "inspire a generation." The success of Parkrun offers answers.Parkun is not a race but a time trial: Your only competitor is the clock. The ethos welcomes anybody. There is as much joy over a puffed-out first-timer being clapped over the line as there is about top talent shining. The Olympic bidders, by contrast, wanted to get more people doing sports and to produce more elite athletes. The dual aim was mixed up: The stress on success over taking part was intimidating for newcomers.Indeed, there is something a little absurd in the state getting involved in the planning of such a fundamentally "grassroots", concept as community sports associations. If there is a role for government, it should really be getting involved in providing common goods－making sure there is space for playing fields and the money to pave tennis and netball courts, and encouraging the provision of all these activities in schools. But successive governments have presided over selling green spaces, squeezing money from local authorities and declining attention on sport in education. Instead of wordy, worthy strategies, future governments need to do more to provide the conditions for sport to thrive. Or at least not make them worse.21. According to Paragraph1, Parkrun has_____.A．gained great popularityB．created many jobsC．strengthened community tiesD．become an official festival22. The author believes that London's Olympic "legacy" has failed to_____. A．boost population growthB．promote sport participationC．improve the city's imageD．increase sport hours in schools23. Parkrun is different from Olympic games in that it_____.A．aims at discovering talentsB．focuses on mass competitionC．does not emphasize elitismD．does not attract first-timers24. With regard to mass sport, the author holds that governments should_____.A．organize "grassroots" sports eventsB．supervise local sports associationsC．increase funds for sports clubsD．invest in public sports facilities25. The author's attitude to what UK governments have done for sports is_____. A．tolerantB．criticalC．uncertainD．sympatheticText 2With so much focus on children’s use of screens, it's easy for parents to forget about their own screen use. “Tech is designed to really suck on you in,” says Jenny Radesky in her study of digital play, "and digital products are there to promote maximal engagement. It makes it hard to disengage, and leads to a lot of bleed-over into the family routine.”Radesky has studied the use of mobile phones and tablets at mealtimes by giving mother-child pairs a food-testing exercise. She found that mothers who sued devices during the exercise started 20 percent fewer verbal and 39 percent fewer nonverbal interactions with their children. During a separate observation, she saw that phones became a source of tension in the family. Parents would be looking at their emails while the children would be making excited bids for their attention.Infants are wired to look at parents’ faces to try to understand their world, and if those faces are blank and unresponsive—as they often are when absorbed in a device－it can be extremely disconcerting foe the children. Radesky cites the “still face experiment” devised by developmental psychologist Ed Tronick in the 1970s. In it, a mother is asked to interact with her child in a normal way before putting on a blank expression and not giving them any visual social feedback; The child becomes increasingly distressed as she tries to capture her mother’s attention. "Parents don't have to be exquisitely parents at all times, but there needs to be a balance and parents need to be responsive and sensitive to a child’s verbal or nonverbal expressions of an emotional need," says Radesky.On the other hand, Tronick himself is concerned that the worries about kids' use of s creens are born out of an “oppressive ideology that demands that parents should always be interacting” with their children: “It’s based on a somewhat fantasized, very white, very upper-middle-class ideology that says if you’re failing to expose your child to 30,000 words you are neglecting them.” Tronick believes that just because a child isn’t learning from the screen doesn’t mean there’s no value to it－particularly if it gives parents time to have a shower, do housework or simply have a break from their child. Parents, he says, can get a lot out of using their devices to speak to a friend or get some work out of the way. This can make them feel happier, which lets then be more available to their child the rest of the time.26. According to Jenny Radesky, digital products are designed to ______. A．simplify routine mattersB．absorb user attentionC．better interpersonal relationsD．increase work efficiency27. Radesky’s food-testing exercise shows that mothers’ use of devices ______.A．takes away babies’ appetiteB．distracts children’s attentionC．slows down babies’ verbal developme ntD．reduces mother-child communication28. Radesky’s cites the “still face experiment” to show that _______.A．it is easy for children to get used to blank expressionsB．verbal expressions are unnecessary for emotional exchangeC．children are insensitive to changes in their parents’ moodD．parents need to respond to children's emotional needs29. The oppressive ideology mentioned by Tronick requires parents to_______. A．protect kids from exposure to wild fantasiesB．teach their kids at least 30,000 words a yearC．ensure constant interaction with their childrenD．remain concerned about kid's use of screens29.【答案】C【解析】本题目为具体细节题。

2017年考研英语二翻译试题答案及解析

2017年考研英语二翻译试题答案及解析My DreamMy dream has always been to work somewhere in an area between fashion and publishing. Two years before graduating from secondary school, I took a sewing and design course thinking that I would move on to a fashion design course. However, during that course I realised that I was not good enough in this area to compete with other creative personalities in the future, so I decided that it was not the right path for me. Before applying for university I told everyone that I would study journalism, because writing was, and still is, one of my favourite activities. But, to be absolutely honest, I said it, because I thought that fashion and me together was just a dream - I knew that no one, apart from myself, could imagine me in the fashion industry at all!2017年英语二的翻译题是一篇关于梦想的小短文，全文共5句话，前两句话比较简短且简单，后三句较长，但难度也都不大。
