自考00600《高级英语》背熟重点
Lesson 1: Rock Superstars: What Do They Tell Us About Ourselves and Our Society?How do you feel about all this adulation and hero worship? When Mick Jagger’s fans look at him as a high priest or a god, are you with them or against them? Do you share Chris Singer’s almost religious reverence for Bob Dylan? Do you think he – or Dylan – is misguided? Do you reject Alice Cooper as sick? Or are you drawn somehow to this strange clown, perhaps because he acts out your wildest fantasies?Lesson 2: Four Choices for Young PeopleThe trouble with this solution is that it no longer is practical on a large scale. Our planet, unfortunately, is running out of noble savages and unsullied landscaped; except for the polar regions, the frontiers are gone. A few gentleman farmers with plenty of money can still escape to the bucolic life – but in general the stream of migration is flowing the other way.Lesson 4: Die as You ChooseIn January the Journal of the American Medical Association published a bizarre letter, in which an anonymous doctor claimed to have killed a 20-year-old cancer patient at her own request. This started a debate that will rumble on into the autumn, when Californians may vote on a proposed law legalizing euthanasia. The letter was probably written for polemical impact. It is scarcely credible. It’s author claims that he met the cancer patient for the first time, heard five words from her – “Let’s get this over with” – then killer her. Even the most extreme proponents of euthanasia do not support such an action in those circumstances.Lesson 5: I’d Rather Be Black than FemaleIt is still women – about three million volunteers – who do most of this work in the American political world. The best any of them can hope for is the honor of being district or county vice-chairman, a kind of separate-but-equal position with which a woman is rewarded for years of faithful envelope stuffing and card-party organizing. I n such a job, she gets a number of free trips to state and sometimes national meetings and conventions, where her role is supposed to be to vote the way her male chairman votes.Lesson 6: A Good Chancethe back door which hung open, we saw people standing in the kitchen. I asked carefully, “What’s wrong?”Nobody spoke but Elgie came over, his bloodshot eyes filled with sorrow and misery. He stood in front of us for a moment and then gestured us to go into the living room. The room was filled with people sitting in silence, and finally Elgie said, quietly, “They shot him.”Lesson 7: Miss BrillAlthough it was so brilliantly fine – the blue sky powdered with gold and the great spots of light like white wine splashed over the Jardins Publiques – Miss Brill was glad that she had decided on her fur. The air was motionless, but when you opened your mouth there was just a faint chill, like a chill from a glass of iced water before you sip, and now and again a leaf came drifting – from nowhere, from they sky. Miss Brill put up her hand and touched her fur. Dear little thing! I t was nice to feel it again. She had taken it out of its box tat afternoon, shaken out the moth-powder, given it a good brush, and rubbed the life back into the dim little eyes. “What has been happening to me?” said the sad little eyes. Oh, how sweet it was to see them snap at her again from the red eiderdown! …But the nose, which was of some black composition, wasn’t at all firm. It must have had a knock, somehow. Never mind – a little dab of black sealing-wax when the time came – when it was absolutely necessary. … Little rogue! Yes, she really felt like that about it. Little rogue biting its tail just by her left ear. She could have taken it off and laid it on her lap and stroked it. She felt a tingling in her hands and arms. But that came from walking, she supposed. And when she breathed, something light and sad – no, not sad, exactly – something gentle seemed to move in her bosom.Lesson 8: A Lesson in Living"It was the best of times and the worst of times. . ." Her voice slid in and curved down through and over the words. She was nearly singing. I wanted to look at the pages. Were they the same that I had read? Or were there notes, music, lined on the pages, as in a hymn book? Her sounds began cascading gently. I knew from listening; to a thousand preachers that she was nearing the end of her reading, and I hadn't really heard, heard to understand, a single word.I have tried often to search behind the sophistication of years for the enchantment I so easilyI said aloud, "It is a far, far better thing that I do, than I have ever done…" tears of love filled my eyes at my selflessness.Lesson 9: The Trouble with TelevisionEverything about this nation—the structure of the society, its forms of family organization, its economy, its place in the world— has become more complex, not less. Yet its dominating communications instrument, its principal form of national linkage, is one that sells neat resolutions to human problems that usually have no neat resolutions. It is all symbolized in my mind by the hugely successful art form that television has made central to the culture, the 30-second commercial: the tiny drama of the earnest housewife who finds happiness in choosing the right toothpaste.When before in human history has so much humanity collectively surrendered so much of its leisure to one toy, one mass diversion? When before has virtually an entire nation surrendered itself wholesale to a medium for selling?Lesson 11: On Getting Off to SleepWhat a bundle of contradictions is a man! Surety, humour is the saving grace of us, for without it we should die of vexation. With me, nothing illustrates the contrariness of things better than the matter of sleep. If, for example, my intention is to write an essay, and 1 have before me ink and pens and several sheets of virgin paper, you may depend upon it that before I have gone very far I feel an overpowering desire for sleep, no matter what time of the day it is. I stare at the reproachfully blank paper until sights and sounds become dim and confused, and it is only by an effort of will that I can continue at all. Even then, I proceed half-heartedly, in a kind of dream. But let me be between the sheets at a late hour, and I can do anything but sleep. Between chime and chime of the clock I can write essays by the score. Fascinating subjects and noble ideas come pell-mell, each with its appropriate imagery and expression. Nothing stands between me and half-a-dozen imperishable masterpieces but pens, ink, and paper.Lesson 12: Why I Writeof good prose or the rhythm of a good story. Desire to share an experience whichvaluable and ought not to be missed…Lesson 14: I Would Like to Tell You SomethingThe investigation was not staged so that veterans could spill out their hearts or purge their souls; it was done to prove that the policy of the United States in Indochina is tantamount to genocide, and that not only the soldiers are responsible for what is happening, but that everyone here in America who has allowed the brutalization and de-personalization to go on is responsible. It was done also to show that you don't start making things right by prosecuting William Galley, no matter how guilty he may be; you also prosecute the men who encouraged the situation. It was done to show that there is not just one Mylai but countless Mylais and they are continuing every single day. There was an almost total press blackout on the testimony of those veterans.Lesson 15: The Beauty IndustryWomen, it is obvious, are freer than in the past. Freer not only to perform the generally unenviable social functions hitherto reserved to the male, but also freer to exercise the more pleasing, feminine privilege of being attractive. They have the right, if not to be less virtuous than their grandmothers, at any rate to look less virtuous. The British Matron, not long since a creature of austere and even terrifying aspect, now does her best to achieve and perennially preserve the appearance of what her predecessor would have described as a Lost Woman. She often succeeds. But we are not shocked—at any rate, not morally shocked. Aesthetically shocked—yes; we may sometimes be that. But morally, no. We concede that the Matron is morally justified in being preoccupied with her personal appearance. This concession depends on another of a more general nature—a concession to the Body, with a large B, to the Manichaean principle of evil. For we have now come to admit that the body has its rights. And not only rights—duties, actually duties. It has, for example, a duty to do the best it can for itself in the way of strength and beauty. Christian-ascetic ideas no longer trouble us. We demand justice for the body as well as for the soul. Hence, among other things, the fortunes made by face-cream manufacturers and beauty-specialists, by the vendors of rubber reducing belts and massage machines, by the patentees of hair-lotions and the authors of books on the culture of the abdomen.下册Lesson One The Company in Which I workOn days when I ‘m especially melancholy , I began constructing tables of organization….classifying people in the company on the basis of envy , hope , fear , ambition , frustration, rivalry , hatred , or disappointment . I call these charts my Happiness Charts . These exercises in malice never fail to boost my spirits ----but only for a while . I rank pretty high when the company is analyzed this way , because I ‘m not envious or disappointed , and I have no expectations . At the very top , of course , are those people , mostly young and without dependents , to whom the company is not yet an institution of any sacred merit but still only a place to work , and who regard their present association with it as something temporary . I put these people at the top because if you asked any one of them if he would choose to spend the rest of his life working for the company , he would give you a resounding No ! , regardless of what inducements were offered . I was that high once . if you asked me that same question today, I would also give you a resounding No ! and add:Lesson Two EvelineBut in her new home , in a distant unknown country , it would not be like that . Then she would be married ---she , Eveline . People would treat her with respect then . She would not be treated as her mother had been . Even now , though she was over nineteen , she sometimes felt herself in danger of her father’s violence . She knew it was that that had given her the palpitations . When they were growing up he had never gone for her , like he used to go for Harry and Ernest , because she was a girl ; but latterly he had begun to threaten her and say what he would do to her only for her dead mother’s sake . And now she had nobody to protect her , Ernest was dead and Harry ,who was in the church decorating business , was nearly always down somewhere in the country . Besides , the invariable squabble for money on Saturday nights had begun to weary her unspeakably . She always gave her entire wages ----seven shillings ----and Harry always sent up what he could , but the trouble was to get any money from her father . He said she used to squander the money , that she had no head , that he wasn’t going to give her his hard-earned money to throw about the streets ,elbowed her way through the crowds and returning home late under her load of provisions . She had hard work to keep the house together and to see that the two young children who had been left to her charge went to school regularly and got their meals regularly . It was hard work ----a hard life ----but now that she was about to leave it she did not find it a wholly undesirable life .She stood among the swaying crowd in the station at the North Wall .He held her hand and she knew that he was speaking to her , saying something about the passage over and over again . The station was full of soldiers with brown baggages . Through the wide doors of the sheds she caught a glimpse of the black mass of the boat , lying in beside the quay wall , with illumined portholes . She answered nothing . She felt her cheek pale and cold and , out of a maze of distress , she prayed to God to direct her , to show her what was her duty . The boat blew a long mournful whistle into the mist . If she went , tomorrow she would be on the sea with Frank , steaming towards Buenos Ayres . Their passage had been booked . Could she still draw back after all he had done for her ? Her distress awoke a nausea in her body and she kept moving her lips in silent fervent prayer .Lesson Three What’s Wrong With Our Press ?The fact is that although network television still allots too little time to the vital service of informing the public , it does a better job in that little time than the nation’s press as a whole . And when I speak of the nation’s press as a whole , I am not speaking of the five or six splendid newspapers ----and the one great newspaper -----which serve the world as models of responsible public information . I am speaking of the local press which in hundreds of American communities is the only news available , aside from those recitals of ticker tape that pass for radio news .Fortunately for the American public , television does not tolerate the kind of distortion of fact , the kind of partisan virulence and personal peeve , that many newspapers not only welcome but encourage . In its entertainment , television caters far too much to the lowest instincts of man , particularly the lust for violence . But there is one appetite it does not feed and which the partisan newspapers of the nation do : the appetite for hate ---hate of whatever is different . I do not find on televison the kind of editorials chronic in the New York tabloids as well as in many local papers across the country .that elevates news above dogfood . it is easier to write editorial copy that appeal to emotion rather than reason .Lesson Four The Tragedy of Old Age in AmericaWhat can we possibly conclude from these discrepant points of view ? Our popular attitudes could be summed up as a combination of wishful thinking and stark terror . We base our feelings on primitive fears , prejudice and stereotypes rather than on knowledge and insight . In reality , the way one experiences old age is contingent upon physical health , personality , earlier-life experiences , the actual circumstances of late –life events ( in what order they occur , how they occur , when they occur ) and the social supports one receives : adequate finances , shelter, medical care , social roles , religious support , recreation . All of these are crucial and interconnected elements which together determine the quality of late life .Lesson Seven Ace in the HoleNo sooner did his car touch the boulevard heading home than Ace flicked on the radio . He needed the radio , especially today . In the seconds before the tubes warmed up , he said aloud , doing it just to hear a human voice , “ Jesus . She ‘ll pop her lid . “ His voice , though familiar , irked him ; it sounded thin and scratchy . In a deeper register Ace added , “ She’ll murder me . “ Then the radio came on , warm and strong , so he stopped worrying . The five Kings were doing “ Blueberry Hill “ ; to hear them made Ace feel so sure inside that from the pack pinched between the car roof and the sun shield he plucked a cigarette , hung it on his lower lip , snapped a match across the rusty place on the dash . He rolled down the window and snapped the match so it spun end-over-end into the gutter . “ Two points , “ he said , and cocked the cigarette toward the roof of the car , sucked powerfully , and exhaled two plumes through his nostrils . He was beginning to feel like himself , Ace Anderson , for the first time that whole day , a bad day . He beat time on the accelerator . The car jerked crazily .The run must have tuned Bonnie up . When they got back home , as soon as he lowered her into the crib , she began to shout and wave her arms . He didn’t want to play with her . He tossed some blocks and rattle into the crib an walked into the bathroom , where he turned on the hot water andwent bald first . He remembered reading somewhere , though , that baldness shows virility .Lesson Eight Science Has Spoiled My SupperEconomics entered . It is possible to turn out in quantity a bland , impersonal , practically imperishable substance more or less resembling , say cheese ---at lower cost than cheese . Chain groceries shut out the independent stores and “ standardization “ became a principal means of cutting cost .Lesson Ten How Market Leaders Keep Their EdgeThe third value discipline we have named customer intimacy . Its adherents focus on delivering not what the market wants but what specific customers want . Customer-intimate companies do not pursue one-time transactions ; they cultivate relationships . They specialize in satisfying unique needs , which often only they recognize , through a close relationship with ---and intimate knowledge of ----the customer . Their proposition to the customer: We have the best solution for you , and we provide all the support you need to achieve optimum results , or value , or both , from whatever products you buy . Long distance telephone carrier Cable& Wireless , , for example , practices customer intimacy with a vengeance , achieving success in a highly competitive market by consistently going the extra mile for its selectively chosen , small-business customers .Lesson Eleven On Human Nature and PoliticsBut great as is the influence of the motives we have been considering , there is one which outweighs them all... Power, like vanity, is insatiable. Nothing short of omnipotence could satisfy it completely. And as it is especially the vice of energetic men, the casual efficacy of love of power is out of all proportion to its frequency. It is, indeed, by far the strongest motive in the lives of important men. Love of power is greatly increased by the experience of power, and this applies to petty power as well as to that of potentates. In the happy days before 1914,when well-to-do ladies could acquire a host of servants, their pleasure in exercising power over the domestics steadily increased with age. Similarly, in any autocratic regime, the holders of power become increasingly tyrannical with experience of the delights that power can afford. Since power over human beings is shown inconsent. If you require a building permit, the petty official concerned will obviously get more pleasure from saying "No" than from saying "Yes". It is this sort of thing which makes the love of power such a dangerous motive . But it has other sides which are more desirable . The pursuit of knowledge is, I think, mainly actuated by love of power. And so are all advances in scientific technique. In politics, also, a reformer may have just as strong a love of power as a despot . It would be a complete mistake to decry love of power altogether as a motive. Whether you will be led by this motive to actions which are useful, or to actions which are pernicious, depends upon the social system, and upon your capacities.Lesson Twelve The Everlasting WitnessThe three were eating breakfast on the terrace, a thousand and one felicitous birds in the garden trees. In unsullied damp brown circles of soft earth the roses bloomed serenely against the pink Mexican wall. Marian's brother-in-law read the English page, as dedicated as a nice little boy reading the funnies, and Theresa, Marian's sister, chatted softly and merrily about their next week-end holiday. Theresa's bright smile had always been her mark and now, childless and with a husband beyond war age, and a life both ordered and gay, it looked as if that smile had justified itself.Lesson Thirteen Selected SnobberiesAll men are snobs about something. One is almost tempted to add : There is nothing about which men cannot feel snobbish. But this would doubtless be an exaggeration. There are certain disfiguring and mortal diseases about which there has probably never been any snobbery. I cannot imagine, for exam4ple, that there are any leprosy-snobs. More picturesque diseases, even when they are dangerous, and less dangerous diseases, particularly when they are the diseases of the rich, can be and very frequently are a source of snobbish self-importance. I have met several adolescent consumption-snobs , who thought that it would be romantic to fade away in the flower of youth , like Keats or Marie Bashkirtseff. Alas, the final stages of the consumptive fading are generally a good deal less romantic than these ingenuous young tubercle-snobs seem to imagine . To anyone who has actually witnessed these final stages, the complacent poeticizings of these adolescents must seem as exasperating as they are profoundly pathetic. In the case ofexasperation is not tempered by very much sympathy. People who possesssufficient wealth, not to mention sufficient health, to go travelling from spa to spa. from doctor to fashionable doctor, in search of cures from problematical diseases (which, in so far as they exist at all. probably have their source in overeating) cannot expect us to be .very lavish in our solicitude and pity.lesson fourteen Saturday Night and Sunday MorningHe sat by the canal fishing on a Sunday morning in spring, at an elbow where alders dipped over the water like old men on their last legs, pushed by young sturdy oaks from behind. He straightened his back, his fingers freeing nylon line from a speedily revolving reel. Around him lay knapsack and jacket, an empty catch-net, his bicycle, and two tins of worms dug from the plot of garden at home before setting out. Sun was breaking through clouds, releasing a smell of earth to heaven. Birds sang. A soundless and minuscular explosion of water caught his eye. He moved nearer the edge, stood up, and with a vigorous sweep of his arm, cast out the line.Lesson Fifteen Is America Falling Apart?During my year's stay in New Jersey I let my appetite flower into full Americanism except for one thing. I did not possess an automobile. This self-elected deprivation was a way into the nastier side of the consumer society. Where private ownership prevails, public amenities decay or are prevented from coming into being. The rundown rail services of America are something I try, vainly, to forget. The nightmare of filth, outside and in, that enfolds the trip from Springfield, Mass., to Grand Central Station would not be accepted in backward Europe. But far worse is the nightmare of travel in and around Los Angeles, where public transport does not exist and people are literally choking to death in their exhaust fumes . This is part of the price of individual ownership.Lesson sixteen Through the TunnelAs for Jerry, once he saw that his mother had gained her beach , he began the steep descent to the bay . From where he was, high up among red-brown rocks, it was a scoop of moving bluish green fringed with white. As he went lower, he saw that it spread among small promontories and inlets of rough, sharp rock, and the crisping, lapping surface showed stains of purple and darkerblue.。

He dreamed, in the American way, of becoming a millionaire. He tried his luck on Wall Street. He was diligent and shrewd and, when he had to be, devious. He put together the deal and he did some things with an electronics acquisition that wouldn‘t bear explaining. He succeeded even beyond his dream: he made twelve million dollars.2) At first the young man assumed that e verything was working out splendidly. ―Isn‘t it grand?‖ he said to his wife, once it was apparent that he had made twelve million dollars. His wife told him that it wasn‘t grand, and he was a nobody.3) ―But that‘s impossible,‖ the young man said. ―I‘m a r ich person. We live in an era that celebrates rich people. Rich people are shown in the newspapers in the company of movie stars and famous novelists and distinguished dress designers. The names of the richest corporate raiders are known to every schoolboy. There are rich real estate sharks whose faces appear on the covers of glossy magazines.‖ But his wife said that his face would not, because he was a nobody. When he stressed the fact that he had twelve million dollars, his wife retorted that a lot of people did, but they were still nobodies. 4) ―I could buy our way onto the committees of important charity balls,‖ the young man said, ―then we‘d be mentioned in the columns.‖ ―Don‘t kid yourself,‖ his wife said. ―The important committees are already filled u p with people who are really rich. People like us would end up working on something like a dinner-dance to benefit the American Psoriasis (牛皮癣) Foundation.‖ The young man mentioned that he owned a co-op apartment on Fifth Avenue that was worth two million dollars. His wife argued that, to a certain extent, two million-dollar co-ops were a dime a dozen. Then the young man boasted of owning a stretch limousine and said it was twenty-one and a half feet long.His wife brushed the idea aside, saying that nobody famous had ever ridden in something like that ,and neither Henry Kissinger nor Calvin Klein had ever heard of him, so he was still a nobody.5) The young man was silent for a while. ―Are you disappointed in me?‖ he finally said to his wife. ―Of course I‘m disappointed in you,‖ she said. ―When you asked me to marry you , you said you would surely amount to something. How was I to know that yo u‘d turn out to be a nobody?‖6) For a moment the young man looked defeated. Then he squared his shoulders and cleared his throat. ―I‘ll make them pay attention, ‖ he said. ―I‘ll buy a professional football team and argue a lot with the coach in public. Celebrities will join me to watch big games from the owner‘s box.‖ The wife ridiculed him, saying that nobody could buy a professional football team for twelve million dollars, because professional football teams cost big bucks.7) ―Then I‘ll buy a magazine and appoint myself chief columnist,‖ the young man said. ―A tiny but exceedingly flattering picture of me will run next to my column every week. The owners of professional football teams will invite me to watch big games from the owner‘s box.‖ The wife bel ieved that he might be able to buy one of those weekly-shoppers throwaways for twelve million dollars, but not a real magazine. One couldn‘t buy a real magazine for chicken feed.8) The young man was very much hurt and asked his wife whether twelve million dollars were chicken feed. But his wife insisted, ―it‘s not big bucks.‖9) ―But that‘s not fair,‖ the young man said. ―I‘m a young man of humble origins who made twelve million dollars. I succeeded even beyond my dream. ‖ ―Some of those things you did wi th the electronics acquisition probably weren‘t fair either,‖ his wife said. ―Fair isn‘t being measured these days. What they measure is money.‖ Then the young man said, if that was the case, he would get more money by going back to Wall Street and making fifty million dollars.10) But before the young man could make fifty million dollars a man from the Securities and Exchange Commission came and arrested him for having committed insider-trading violations in the electronics acquisition.11) The young man was taken away from his office in handcuffs. A picture on the front page of the afternoon paper showed him leaving his arraignment trying to hide his face behind an $850 Italian overcoat. A long article in the morning paper used him as an example of a new breed of Wall Street traders who were the victims of their own greed, probably because of their humble origins. His friends and associates avoided him. 12) Only his wife stuck by him. She tried to see the bright side. ―For someone with only twelve million d ollars,‖ she said to the young man, ―you‘re getting to be pretty well known.‖Ⅳ.

0600自考高级英语 下册
自考高级英语下册Lesson 1 The Company in Which I workIn the company in which I work , each of us is afraid of at least one person . The lower your position is , the more people you are afraid of . And all the people are afraid of the twelve men at the top who helped found and build the company and now own and direct it .All these twelve men are elderly now and drained by time and success of energy and ambition . Many have spent their whole lives here .They seem friendly ,slow , and content when I come upon them in the halls and always courteous and mute when they ride with others in the public elevators . They no longer work hard .They hold meetings , make promotions, and allow their names to be used on announcements that are prepared and issued by somebody else . Nobody is sure anymore who really runs the company ( not even the people who are credited with running it ) , but the company does run .In the normal course of a business day …I am afraid of Jack Green because my department is part of his department and Jack Green is my boss ; Green is afraid of me because most of the work in my department is done for the Sales Department , which is more important than his department , and I am much closer to Andy Kagle and the other people in the Sales Department than he is .Green distrusts me fitfully .He makes it clear to me every now and then that he wishes to see everything coming out of my department before it is shown to other departments .I know he does not really mean this : he is too busy with his own work to pay that much attention to all of mine , and I will bypass him on most of our assignments rather than take up his time and delay their delivery to people who have an immediate need for them . Most of the work we do in my department is , in the long run, trivial . But Green always grows alarmed when someone from another department praises something that has come from my department . He turns scarlet with rage and embarrassment is he has not seen or heard of it .In my department , there are six people who are afraid of me , and one small secretary who is afraid of all of us . I have one other person working for me who is not afraid of me who is not afraid of anyone , not even me , and I would fire him quickly , but I’m afraid of him …The people in the company who are most afraid of most people are the salesmen . They live and work under pressure that is extraordinary . When things are bad , they are worse for the salesmen ;when things are good , they are not much better .They are always on trial , always on the verge of failure , collectively and individually . They strain, even the most secure and self assured ofthem , to look good on paper ; and there is much paper for them to look good on . Each week , for example , a record of the sales results of the preceding week for each sales office and for the Sales Department as a whole for each division of the company is kept and compared to the sales results for the corresponding week of the year before . The figures are photocopied and distributed throughout the company to all the people and departments whose work is related to selling . The result of the photocopying and distributing is that there is almost continuous public scrutiny and discussion throughout the company of how well or poorly the salesmen in each sales office of each division of the company are doing at any given time .When salesmen are doing well , there is pressure upon them to begin doing better , for fear they may start doing worse . When they are doing poorly , they are doing terribly . When a salesman lands a large order or brings in an important new account , his elation is brief , for there is danger he might lose that large order or important new account to a salesman from a competing company the next time around . It might even be canceled before it is filled , in which case no one is certain if anything was gained or lost . So there is crisis and alarm even in their triumphs .Nevertheless , the salesmen love their work and would not choose any other kind . They are vigorous , fun-loving bunch when they are not suffering abdominal cramps or brooding miserably about the future ; on the other hand , they often turn cranky without warning and complain a lot . Each of them can name at least one superior in the company who he feels has a grudge against him and is determined to wreck his career .The salesmen work hard and earn big salaries , with large personal expense accounts that they squander generously on other people in and out of the company , including me . They own good houses in good communities and play good games of golf on good private golf courses . The company encourages this . The company , in fact , will pay for their country club membership and all charges they incur there , and rewards salesmen who make a good impression on the golf course .Unmarried men are not wanted in the Sales Department , not even widowers , for the company has learned from experience that it is difficult and dangerous for unmarried salesmen to mix socially with prominent executives and their wives or participate with them in responsible civic affairs . If a salesman’s wife dies and he is not ready to remarry , he is usually moved into an administrative position after several months of mourning . Bachelors are never hired for the sales force , and salesmen who get divorced , or whose wives die , know they had better remarry or begin looking ahead toward a different job .Strangely enough , the salesmen react very well to the constant pressure and rigid supervision to which they are subjected . They arestimulated and motivated by discipline and direction. They thrive on explicit guidance toward clear objectives . For the most part , they are cheerful , confident, and gregarious when they are not irritable , anxious , and depressed . There must be something in the makeup of a man that enables him not only to be a salesman , but to want to be one .The salesmen are proud of their position and of the status and importance they enjoy within the company , for the function of my department , and of most other departments , is to help the salesmen sell . The company exists to sell . That’s the reason we were hired , and the reason we are paid .The people in the company who are least afraid are the few in our small Market Research Department , who believe in nothing and are concerned with collecting , organizing , interpreting , and reorganizing statistical information about the public , the market , the country , and the world . For one thing , their salaries are small , and they know they will not have much trouble finding jobs paying just as little in other companies if they lose their jobs here . Their budget , too , is small , for they are no longer permitted to undertake large projects .Most of the information we use now is obtained free from trade associations and some governmental organizations , and there is no way of knowing anymore whether the information on which we base our own information for distribution is true or false . But that doesn’t seem to matter ; all that does matter is that the information come from a reputable source . People in the Market Research Department are never held to blame for conditions they discover outside the company that place us at a competitive disadvantage . They are not expected to change reality , but merely to find it if they can and suggest ingenious ways of disguising it . To a great extent , that is the nature of my own work , and all of us under Green work closely with the Sales Department and the Public Relations Department in converting whole truths into half truths and half truths into whole ones .I am very good at these techniques of deception, although I am not always able anymore to deceive myself . In fact , I am continuously astonished by people in the company who fall victim to their own propaganda . There are so many now who actually believe that what we do is really important . This happens not only to salesmen , but to the shrewd , capable executives in top management . It happens to people on my own level and lower . It happens to just about everybody in the company who graduated from a good business school with honors . Every time we launch a new advertising campaign , for example , people inside the company are the first ones to be taken in by it . Every time we introduce a new product , or an old product with a different cover , color , and name that we present as new , people inside the company are the firstto rush to buy it ---even when it’s no good .It’s a wise person , I guess , who knows he’s dumb , and an hones t person who knows he’s a liar . And it’s a dumb person who’s convinced he is wise . We wise grownups here at the company go sliding in and out all day long , scaring each other at our desks and trying to evade the people who frighten us . We come to work , have lunch , and go home . We goose-step in and goose-step out , change our partners and wander all about , and go back home till we all drop dead . Really , I ask myself every now and then , depending on how well or poorly things are going at the office or at home with my wife , or with my retarded son , or with my other son , or my daughter , or the colored maid , or the nurse for my retarded son , is this all there is for me to do ?Is this really the most I can get from the few years left in this one life of mine ?And the answer I get , of course , is always ---Yes !…I am bored with my work very often now . Everything routine that comes in I pass along to somebody else . This makes my boredom worse . It ‘s a real problem to decide whether it’s more boring to do something boring than to pass along everything boring that comes in to somebody else and then have nothing to do at all .Actually , I enjoy my work when the assignments are large and urgent and somewhat frightening and will come to the attention of many people .I get scared , and am unable to sleep at night , but I usually perform at my best under this stimulating kind of pressure and enjoy my job the most . I handle all of these important projects myself , and I rejoice with tremendous pride and vanity in the compliments I receive when I do them well . But between such peaks of challenge and elation there is monotony and despair . ( And I find , too, that once I ‘ve succeeded in impressing somebody , I ‘m not much excited about impressing th at same person again ; there is a large , emotional letdown after I survive each crisis , a kind of empty , tragic disappointment , and last year’s threat , opportunity , and inspiration are often this year’s inescapable tedium . I frequently feel I ‘m being taken advantage of merely because I ‘m asked to do the work I ‘m paid to do . )On days when I ‘m especially melancholy , I began constructing tables of organization….classifying people in the company on the basis of envy , hope , fear , ambition , frustration, rivalry , hatred , or disappointment . I call these charts my Happiness Charts . These exercises in malice never fail to boost my spirits ----but only for a while .I rank pretty high when the company is analyzed this way , because I ‘m not envious or disappointed , and I have no expectations . At the very top , of course , are those people , mostly young and without dependents , to whom the company is not yet an institution of any sacred merit but stillonly a place to work , and who regard their present association with it as something temporary . I put these people at the top because if you asked any one of them if he would choose to spend the rest of his life working for the company , he would give you a resounding No ! , regardless of what inducements were offered . I was that high once . if you asked me that same question today, I would also give you a resounding No ! and add:“ I think I’d rather die now . “But I am making no plans to leave .I have the feeling now that there is no place left for me to go . Lesson 2 EvelineShe sat at the window watching the evening invade the avenue.Her head was leaned against the window curtains , and in her nostrils was the odour of dusty cretonne . She was tired .Few people passed . The man out of the last house passed on his way home ; she heard his footsteps clacking along the concrete pavement and afterwards crunching on the cinder path before the new red houses . One time there used to be a field there in which they used to play every e vening with other people’s children . Then a man from Belfast bought the field and built houses in it ----not like their little brown houses , but bright brick houses with shining roofs . The children of the avenue used to play together in that field –the Devines , the Waters , the Dunns , little Keogh the cripple , she and her brothers and sisters . Ernest , however , never played: he was too grown up . Her father used often to hunt them in out of the field with his blackthorn stick ; but usually little Keogh used to keep nix and call out when he saw her father coming . Still they seemed to have been rather happy then . Her father was not so bad then ; and besides , her mother was alive . That was a long time ago ; she and her brothers and sisters were all grown up ; her mother was dead . Tizzie Dunn was dead ,too, and the Waters had gone back to England . Everything changed . Now she was going to go away like the others , to leave her home .Home ! She looked round the room , reviewing all its familiar objects which she had dusted once a week for so many years , wondering where on earth all the dust came from . Perhaps she would never see again those familiar objects from which she had never dreamed of being divided . And yet during all those years she had never found out the name of the priest whose yellowing photograph hung on the wall above the broken harmonium beside the coloured print of the promises made to Blessed Margaret Mary Alacoque . He had been a school friend of her father . whenever he showed the photograph to a visitor her father used to pass itwith a casual word :” He is in Melbourne now . “She had consented to go away , to leave her home . Was what wise ? She tried to weigh each side of the question . In her home anyway she had shelter and food ; she had those whom she had known all her life about her . Of course she had to work hard , both in the house and at business . What would they say of her in the stores when they found out that she had run away with a fellow ? Say she was a fool , perhaps; and her place would be filled up by advertisement . Miss Gavan would be glad . She had always had an edge on her , especially whenever there were people listening .“Miss Hill , don’t you see these ladies are waiting ?”“ Look lively , Miss Hill , please . “She would not cry many tears at leaving the stores .But in her new home , in a distant unknown country , it would not be like that . Then she would be married ---she , Eveline . People would treat her with respect then . She would not be treated as her mother had been . Even now , though she was over nineteen , she sometimes felt herself in danger of her father’s violence . She knew it was that that had given her the palpitations . When they were growing up he had never gone for her , like he used to go for Harry and Ernest , because she was a girl ; but latterly he had begun to threaten her and say what he would do to her only for her dead mother’s sake . And now she had nobody to protect her , Ernest was dead and Harry ,who was in the church decorating business , was nearly always down somewhere in the country . Besides , the invariable squabble for money on Saturday nights had begun to weary her unspeakably . She always gave her entire wages ----seven shillings ----and Harry always sent up what he could , but the trouble was to get any money from her father . He said she used to squander the money , that she had no head , that he wasn’t going to give her his hard-earned money to throw about the streets , and much more , for he was usually fairly bad on Saturday night . In the end he would give her the money and ask her had she any intention of buying Sunday’s dinner . Then she had to rush out as quickly as she could and do her marketing , holding her black leather purse tightly in her hand as she elbowed her way through the crowds and returning home late under her load of provisions . She had hard work to keep the house together and to see that the two young children who had been left to her charge went to school regularly and got their meals regularly . It was hard work ----a hard life ----but now that she was about to leave it she did not find it a wholly undesirable life .She was about to explore another life with Frank . Frank was very kind , manly , open-hearted . She was to go away with him by the night –boat to be his wife and live with him in Buenos Ayres , where he had a home waiting fro her . How well she remembered the first time she hadseen him ; he was lodging in a house on the main road where she used to visit . It seemed a few weeks ago . he was standing at the gate , his peaked cap pushed back on his head and his hair tumbled forward over a face of bronze . Then they had come to know each other . He used to meet her outside the stores every evening and see her home . He took her to see The Bohemian Girl and she felt elated as she sat in an unaccustomed part of the theatre with him . He was awfully fond of music and sang a little . People knew that they were courting , and when he sang about the lass that loves a sailor , she always felt pleasantly confused . He used to call her Poppens out of fun . First of all it had been an excitement for her to have a fellow and then she had begun to like him . He had tales of distant countries . He had started as a deck boy at a pound a month on a ship of the Allan Line going out to Canada . He told her the names of the ships he had been on and the names of the different services . He had sailed through the Straits of Magellan and he told her stories of the terrible Patagonians . He had fallen on his feet in Buenos Ayres , he said , and had come over to the old country just for a holiday . Of course , her father had found out the affair and had forbidden her to have anything to say to him .“ I know these sailor chaps , “ he said .One day he had quarreled with Frank , and after that she had to meet her lover secretly .The evening deepened in the avenue . The white of two letters in her lap grew indistinct . One was to Harry ; the other was to her father . Ernest had been her favourite , but she likeed Harry too . Her father was becoming old lately , she noticed ; he would miss her . Sometimes he could be very nice . Not long before , when she had been laid up for a day , he had read her out a ghost story and made toast for her at the fire . Another day , when their mother was alive , they had all gone for a picnic to the Hill of Howth . She remembered her father putting on her mother’s bonnet to make the children laugh .Her time was running out , but she continued to sit by the window ,leaning her head against the window curtain , inhaling the odour of dusty cretonne . Down far in the avenue she could hear a street organ playing . She knew the air . Strange that it should come that very night to remind her of the promise to her mother , her promise to keep the home together as long as she could . She remembered the last night of her mother’s illness ; she was again in the close , dark room at the other side of the hall and outside she heard a melancholy air of Italy . The organ-player had been ordered to go away and given sixpence . She remembered her father strutting back into the sick-room saying : “ Damned Italians ! Coming over here !”As she mused the pitiful vision of her mother’s life laid its spell onthe very quick of her being ---that life of commonplace sacrifices closing in final craziness . She trembled as she heard again her mother’s voice saying constantly with foolish insistence :“ Derevaun Seraun! Derevaun Seraun !”She stood up in a sudden impulse of terror . Escape ! She must escape ! Frank would save her . He would give her life , perhaps love , too . But she wanted to live . Why should she be unhappy ? She had a right to happiness . Frank would take her in his arms , fold her in his arms . He would save her .* * *She stood among the swaying crowd in the station at the North Wall .He held her hand and she knew that he was speaking to her , saying something about the passage over and over again . The station was full of soldiers with brown baggages . Through the wide doors of the sheds she caught a glimpse of the black mass of the boat , lying in beside the quay wall , with illumined portholes . She answered nothing . She felt her cheek pale and cold and , out of a maze of distress , she prayed to God to direct her , to show her what was her duty . The boat blew a long mournful whistle into the mist . If she went , tomorrow she would be on the sea with Frank , steaming towards Buenos Ayres . Their passage had been booked . Could she still draw back after all he had done for her ? Her distress awoke a nausea in her body and she kept moving her lips in silent fervent prayer .A bell clanged upon her heart . She felt him seize her hand : “ Come!”All the seas of the world tumbled about her heart . He was drawing her into them : he would drown her . She gripped with both hands at the iron railing .:”Come !”No! No! No ! It was impossible . Her hands clutched the iron in frenzy . Amid the seas she sent a cry of anguish .“Eveline ! Evvy !”He rushed beyond the barrier and called to her to follow . He was shouted at to go on , but he still called to her . She set her white face to him , passive , like a helpless animal . Her eyes gave him no sign of love or farewell or recognition .Lesson 3 What’s Wrong With Our Press ?Newspapers have two great advantages over television . They can be used by men as barriers against their wives . It is still the only effective screen against the morning features of the loved one ,and , as such , performs a unique human service .The second advantage is thatyou can’t line a garbage pail with a television set ----it’s usually the other way around .But here are some interesting statistics from a little , and little known , survey by Mr. Roper called “ The public’s reaction to Television Following the Quiz Investigations “ . In it he asks everybody but me this question : Suppose you could continue to have only one of the following---radio ,television , newspapers ,or magazines ---which would you prefer ? Newspapers came in second : Forty –two percent said if they could only have one , they would keep television. Thirty –two per cent said if they could only have one , they would keep newspapers .Even so , newspaper people should be much happier than the magazine people , because only four per cent said they needed magazines , as against nineteen per cent for radio .But listen to this . Mr. Roper asked these same harried people :” If you get conflicting or different reports of the same new story from radio , television , the magazines , and the newspapers , which of the four versions would you be most inclined to believe ? “ Thirty –two per cent believe newspapers as against thirty per cent who believe television . But then something really strange happens . When Mr. Roper asked his guinea pigs which of these media they would be least inclined to believe , the newspapers topped the list . In a big way , too . Twenty –four per cent don’t believe newspapers as against nine per cent who don’t believe television .The fact is that although network television still allots too little time to the vital service of informing the public , it does a better job in that little time than the nation’s press as a whole . And when I speak of the nation’s p ress as a whole , I am not speaking of the five or six splendid newspapers ----and the one great newspaper -----which serve the world as models of responsible public information . I am speaking of the local press which in hundreds of American communities is the only news available , aside from those recitals of ticker tape that pass for radio news .Why do I think network Tvdoes a better job of informing than these papers ? Well , let’s get the partisan bit over with . Television lives on advertising to an even greater extent than newspapers , and since advertising is big business , advertising is by nature Republican . yet nowhere in network newscasts or network commentaries on current events have I encountered the intense partisanship , the often rabid bias that colors the editorial pages of the majority of newspapers in this country . Douglass Cater , in his book The Fourth Branch of Government , confines himself to only one pungent footnote on this subject . “ I have deliberately avoided , “ he writes , “ getting into the predominantly one-party nature of newspaper wonership . it is a fact of life . “ Thisparticular fact of life is a shameful one : that newspapers whose duty is to inform the American public give them only one side of the issues that affect them profoundly ---the Republican side . This is shameful not only for Democrats ---they have survived it before and will survive it again ----but for the maturity of our people . Some of the same papers which loudly extol the virtues of free enterprise and a free press are consistently failing to print the facts on which a people can form a balance and independent opinion . That balanced and independent opinion is our only real security as a nation .Now , very often , television coverage of news is superficial and inadequate . very often the picture takes precedence over the point . But by and large the news reports and commentaries on CBS and NBC and ABC make every effort to present viewers with more than one aspect of an issue , either by letting opposing spokesmen have their say , or by outlining the positions held by both major parties on the subject involved .Television also provides a wide range of opinion by setting up four or five experts and letting them knock each other down . What has the local press of this nature ?Fortunately for the American public , television does not tolerate the kind of distortion of fact , the kind of partisan virulence and personal peeve , that many newspapers not only welcome but encourage . In its entertainment , television caters far too much to the lowest instincts of man , particularly the lust for violence . But there is one appetite it does not feed and which the partisan newspapers of the nation do : the appetite for hate ---hate of whatever is different . I do not find on televison the kind of editorials chronic in the New York tabloids as well as in many local papers across the country .A newspaper has the right ----the duty even ----to assume an attitude , to take a position . But it has an equally sacred right to explain that position in the light of the opposing one , to document that position , and to bolster it , not with emotion but with fact .Here , of course , is where background information helps the public to draw its conclusions . TV does a great deal of this in the form of documentaries , and you can of course say that they have the time and the money to do this and you haven’t . Yet across this wide country , and with the exception of a handful of syndicated columns , I fail to find in any local paper any attempt , however minimal , to strengthen this muscle of digestion , without which news can neither nourish nor inform . It can only stuff . Between the opinions of the editor and the bare statements of the wire services there is nothing , nothing , that is except a collection of snippets used as fillers between the ads and picked at random .One of the greatest and most justified criticisms of television has。

Some fresh fruits are highly ______ and should be kept in cool places.A. perishableB. eligibleC. permissibleD. affordableRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II, IV, V.(1) A rift is growing between government and higher education, with debates over funding, missions and accountability.(2) In that context, it is all the more worth watching Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, who assumes the presidency of Purdue University on January 14. Other governors have become college presidents. Some, like Tom K ean, have been very successful. However, Daniels—who brings to the job an unusual blend of leadership experiences in government at the state and national level, public policy,business, and now academe—is coming to office at a time of unusual tension.(3) Governors increasingly characterize the rising costs of higher education and its limitedaccess as unsustainable. Many find it imperative that universities increase their productivity, affordability, access, graduation rates, and accountability. In contrast, university presidents say that quality, not cost, is the real issue in an era in which excellence in higher educationis more urgent than ever before in history. The question, academic leaders say, should not bethe price of college, but who pays, criticizing government for disinvesting in higher education. Bottom line: Between the governors and the presidents, there is increasingly little if any common ground other than recognizing the importance of higher education. They have entirely differentviews of the problem, no agreement on responsibility, and nothing in the way of a shared solution. (4) In his first public action as president of Purdue, Daniels has bridged the chasm with a salary package that incorporates the goals of both the governors and the presidents. He did this intwo ways. The first was conciliatory, eliminating the red flag that sets off both governmentand the academy: He rejected presidential salary inflation. His salary package is smaller than his predecessor’s, placing him tenth among the 12 Big Ten university presidents in terms of salary. There is no deferred compensation.(5) Second, and more importantly in terms of national models, is that Governor Daniels askedfor a salary based upon achieving his goals for the university. The package is divided into twobuckets—base salary and bonus. The bonus is tied to graduation rates, affordability, studentachievement, philanthropic support, faculty excellence, and strategic program initiatives. Inestablishing this bonus system, Daniels married traditional notions of academic quality—as measured by excellence in faculty, programs and resources—with an equal emphasis on effective outcomes and price controls: graduation rates, affordability, and student achievement.(6) In so doing, Daniels has demonstrated his belief that there is common ground to be foundbetween the university and government. The choice is not quality or effectiveness, not excellenceor affordability; the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game in which one side winsand the other loses. Rather, he believes it is possible to balance the seemingly conflictinggoals of government and higher education.(7) Daniels is not the first president to have his salary tied to achieving institutional goals, but he is probably the most visible. Moreover, although Daniels is renouncing involvement inpartisan politics as he enters the Purdue presidency, he is a former Republican governor andparty leader known as a frugal fiscal conservative. Historically, the divisions have been greater between Republicans and the academy than has been the case with Democrats. In a very real sense, what Daniels has chosen to do is somewhat akin to Nixon going to China. He has undertaken anexperiment to be closely watched. If successful, he will have established a potential model forthe country.(8) Typically, presidents reserve such powerful statements for their inaugural addresses. Though such addresses are sincere in intent—I can vouch for that, as someone who has given two andlistened to many more—they are generally aspirational; they articulate hopes and dreams forwhat an institution can become. Daniels has already done something very different. He is putting himself on the line in a very public fashion. Year after year his salary will be determined byhis success. And perhaps even more importantly, his success or failure will be public when hisboard announces the size and rationale for his bonus.(9) It’s a bold step—and Governor Daniels should be applauded for taking it.II. In this section, there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choicesmarked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. (20 points, 2 points for each)16. The word “rift” in Paragraph 1 means ______A. gapB. dilemmaC. painD. headache17.

Lesson 2 Four Choices for Young PeopleMain IdeaThe American young people in the 1960's belonged to a rebellious generation. They saw that America, the affluent society was full of poverty, inequality and hypocrisy.They didn't believe in this adult world which did not belong to them, and refused to follow its beliefs and values. Many young people took active part in the wars against poverty, against racial discrimination and against Vietnam War.Some young people even attempted to overthrow the establishment by force.While many other young people expressed their disaffection in a passive way, and they used drugs,lived a parasitic life without taking any responsibility in society, or escaped to the unspoiled country to live a rather primitive communal life.1、30年代的大难题刚刚得到初步控制，新的问题又出现了——前所未有的富裕社会和种族平等问题。

Although all the selfishness chills the world like east winds, the whole human family is bathed with an element of love. How many persons we meet in houses, whom we scarcely speak to, whom yet we honor and who honor us! How many we see in the street, or sit with in church, whom, though silently, we warmly reioice to be with! Read the language of these wandering eye-beams. The heart knows.(2)The effect of the indulgence of this human affection is a certain friendly excitement. In poetry, and in common speech, the emotion of kindness and satisfaction which are felt towards others are likened to the material effects of fire; so swift, or much swift, more active, more cheering, are those fine inward irradiation. From the highest degree of passionate love, to the lowest degree of goodwill, they make sweetness of life.(3)Our intellectual and active powers increase with our affection. The scholar sits down to write, and all his years of meditation do not equip him with one good thought or happy expression; but it is necessary to write a letter to a friend—and forthwith troops of gentle thought invest themselves, on every hand, with chosen words.(4)See, in any house where virtue and self-respect wait, the excitement which the approach of a stranger causes. A commended stranger is expected andannounced, and uneasiness between pleasure and pain invades all the hearts of a household. His arrival almost brings fear to the good hearts that would welcome him. The house is dusted, all things fly into their places, the old coat is exchanged to the new, and they must get up a dinner if they can. Of a commended stranger, only the good report is told by others, only the good and new is heard by us. He stands to us for humanity. He is what we wish. Having imagined and invested him, we ask how we should stand related in conversation and action with such a man, and are uneasy with fear. The same idea exalts conversation with him. We talk better than we often do. We have the nimblest fancy, a richer memory, and our dumb devil has taken leave for the time. For long hours we can continue a series of sincere, graceful, rich communication, drawn from the oldest secret experience, so that they who sit by, of our own kinsfolk and acquaintance, shall feel a livelysurprise at our unusual powers. But as soon as the stranger begins to intrude his partialities, his definitions, his defects, into the conversation, it is all over. He has heard the first, the last and best he will ever hear from us. He is no more stranger now. Vulgarity, ignorance, misapprehension are old acquaintances. Now, when he comes, he may get the order, the dress, and the dinner, —but the throbbing of the heart, and the communications of the soul, no more.(5)What is so pleasant as these streams of affection which make a young world for me again What so delicious as a just and firm encounter of two, in a thought, in a feeling How beautiful, on their approach to this beating heart, the steps and forms of the gifted and true! The moment we indulge our affections, the earth is transformed; there is no winter, and no night; all tragedies, all boredom, vanish, —all duties even; nothing fills the proceeding eternity but the forms all radiant of beloved persons. Let the soul be assured that somewhere in the universe it should rejoin its friend, and it would be content and cheerful alone for a thousand years.(6)I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new. Shall I not call God the beautiful, who daily shows himself so to me in his gifts I chide society. I embrace solitude, and yet I am not so ungrateful as not to see the wise, the lovely, and the noble-minded, as from time to time they pass my gate.Who hears me, who understands me, becomes mine, a possession for all the time. Nor is nature so poor but she gives me this joy several times, and thus we weave social threads of our own, a new web of relation; and as many thoughts in succession substantiate themselves, we shall by and by stand in a new world of our creation, and no longer strangers and pilgrims in a traditional globe.Il.

determined who would go first with a coin ______．A．toss B．fling考证素材C．twist D．throwRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II，III，IV.To Kill or Not to Kill(1)Capital punishment has been in effect since the 1600’s．However, in 1972 the U．S．Supreme Court ruled that the death penalty was cruel and unusual punishment，which was unconstitutional according to the Eighth Amendment．It was public opinion that the current methods of execution，hanging，electrocution，and facing a firing squad，were too slow and painful upon the person to be executed．The U．S．Supreme Court reversed this decision when a cleaner way to bring about death was found in 1976．This cleaner way is death by lethal injection，which is quick and painless if administered right．(2)Many people have argued for and against capital punishment since it was reinstituted．Some say the death penalty is what the criminal deserves while others object to it because death is irreversible．I feel the death penalty is a good form of justice because only about 250 people a year get the death penalty and they are guilty beyond a doubt and don’t deserve living with the possibility of parole．(3)The sentencing judge or jury are ordered by the Supreme Court to look for specific aggravating and mitigating factors in deciding which convicted murderers should be sentenced to death．S ome of these mitigating factors are the defendant’s motivation, character, personal history, and most of all remorse．Every year approximately 250 new offenders are added to death row．In 1994 there were 2，850 persons awaiting execution．Yet no more than thirty-eight people have been executed a year since 1976．This is a ridiculously low number compared to 199 persons executed in 1935．(4)The reason for this slow execution rate is the process of appeals．From sentencing to execution there is about a seven-to-eight-year wait．The convicts’ cases are reviewed by the state courts and through the federal courts．With all this opportunity for the case to be turned over or the sentence to be changed it is almost impossible for an innocent person to be executed．Only two people have been proved innocent after their execution in the United States．These wrongful deaths occurred in 1918 and 1949．Since then the justice system has undergone a lot o f fine tuning making this extremely unlikely to day.(5)One argument against the death penalty is that it costs less to imprison someone for life than to考证素材execute them．This is a good point that has a 1o t of impact on a lot of people’s views regarding capital punishment since they are the ones footing the bill．through taxes．I personally would not mind paying the little bit extra just so I know for sure that there’s one 1ess murderer on our planet．If the death penalty was done away with，prisoners who should have been executed will be mixed in with other inmates．It would be possible and not too unlikely for them to kill another inmate or possibly a prison guard．If someone is lined up for execution then they more than likely deserve it．They have caused a great deal of grief to the family and friends of the victim or victims and it seems like the only way justice could be served is for the criminal to die.(6)For the person to simply go to jail seems unfair．There they will eat three meals a day, get to watch cable TV and befriend other inmates．They live a pretty decent 1ife in prison and they don’t deserve it．Out of the fifty states in the United States 37 have and use capital punishment．Out of the same fifty states only 18 have 1ife imprisonment without parole．In the other 32 states a person who should’ve been executed can b e released after as 1ittle as 20 years in prison．(7)There are certain standards that are followed in giving out capital punishment．The defendant can not be insane, and the real or criminal intent must be present．Also，minors very rarely receive the death penalty because they are not fully mature and might not know the consequences of their actions．Finally the mentally retarded are very seldom executed．The reason for not executing the retarded is that they often have difficulty defending themselves in court, have problems remembering details，locating witnesses，and testifying credibly on their own behalf．(8)If capital punishment were carried out more it would prove to be the crime deterrent it was partly intended to be．Most criminals would think twice before committing murder if they knew their own 1ives are at stake．As it turns out，as very few people are executed，so the death penalty is not a satisfactory deterrent．During highly publicized death penalty cases the homicide rate is found to go down but it goes back up when the case is over．(9)Thomas Edison，a famous scientist and American hero，helped develop and extensively promoted the electric chair．The electric chair was a popular method of execution from the 1930s to the 1970s．The death penalty is a punishment that will remain active for a long time in考证素材the future，even with all the criticism．It is an ancient way of dealing with extremely serious offences that plague our country today．Hopefully the appeals process will be shortened，but remain effective，so more criminals can be executed，making prospective criminals think twice．II．In this section，there are ten incomplete statements or questions，followed by four choices marked A，B，C and D．Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.(20 points，2 points for each)16．The death sentence was instituted some ______ years ago．A．200 B．300C．400 D．5 0017．According to the first paragraph，people generally thought that ______．A．lethal injection was painful but quickB．death penalty was cruel and therefore should be abolishedC．facing a firing squad was a cleaner way for capital punishmentD．the methods then used to bring about death were slow and painful18．A method of execution that is not mentioned in this article is ______．A．hanging B．injectionC．decapitation D．electrocution19．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “remorse〞in Paragraph 3 A．regret B．rebellionC．revulsion D．recklessness20．Two persons put to death，one in 1918 and the other in 1949，were found to have been _____．A．insane B．wrongly killedC．mentally retarded D．executed without trial21．The expression “footing the bill〞in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by ______．A．paying the cost B．asking for paymentC．causing the expenses D．refunding the expenses22．In the passage，the author implies that

should’ve been executed 1ive a miserable life in prison考证素材D．in the United States a person who should’ve been executed might be set free after only 20 years’ imprisonment23．The expression “at stak

自考00600《高级英语》背熟段落
高级英语文章中需要背诵的段落(上册)Lesson One在文单的头三段里，作者以相同的手法描写了三位摇滚歌星的表演盛况。
青少年把他们视为偶像，赞美不绝，而成年观众则觉得他们恶心，难以心爱，这反映了青少年和成人社会对摇滚乐截然不同的态度。
In the first three paragraphs, the author describes the wonderful performance of three rock superstars by the same means. Teenagers see them as icons, praising them endlessly, while adult viewers reject them as sick, which shows the different attitudes towards rock music by teenagers and adults.背诵How do you feel about all this adulation and hero worship? When Mick Jagger’s fans look at him as a high priest or a god, are you with them or against them? Do you share Chris Singer’s almost religious reverence for Bob Dylan? Do you think he – or Dylan – is misguided? Do you reject Alice Cooper as sick? Or are you drawn somehow to this strange clown, perhaps because he asts out your wildest fantasies? Lesson Two正如本课中所说的，他们当中有些人脱离传统的社会活动，拒绝承担任何社会责任，过着颓废的寄生生活；有些人逃离城市，跑到偏僻的乡间过着原始公社式的生活；有些人则试图以暴力手段改变社会状况，遭到了残酷的镇压。
