Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.A Mess on the Ladder of SuccessA) Throughout American history there has almost always been at least one central economic narrative that gave the ambitious or unsatisfied reason to pack up and seek their fortune elsewhere. For the first 300 or so years of European settlement, the story was about moving outward: getting immigrants to the continent and then to the frontier to clear the prairies (大草原), drain the wetlands and build new cities.B) By the end of the 19th century, as the frontier vanished, the US had a mild panic attack. What would this energetic, enterprising country be without new lands to conquer? Some people, such as Teddy Roosevelt, decided to keep on conquering (Cuba, the Philippines, etc.), but eventually, in industrialization, the US found a new narrative of economic mobility at home. From the 1890s to the 1960s, people moved from farm to city, first in the North and then in the South. In fact, by the 1950s, there was enough prosperity and white-collar work that many began to move to the suburbs. As the population aged, there was also a shift from the cold Rust Belt to the comforts of the Sun Belt. We think of this as an old person’s migration, but it created many jobs for the young in construction and health care, not to mention tourism, retail and restaurants.C) For the last 20 years—from the end of the cold war through two burst bubbles in a single decade—the US has been casting about for its next economic narrative. And now it is experiencing another period of panic, which is bad news for much of the workforce but particularly for its youngest members.D) The US has always been a remarkably mobile country, but new data from the Census Bureau indicate that mobility has reached its lowest level in recorded history. Sure, some people are stuck in homes valued at less than their mortgages (抵押贷款), but many young people—who don’t own homes and don’t yet have families—are staying put, too. This suggests, among other things, that people aren’t packing up for new economic opportunities the way they used to. Rather than dividing the country into the 1 percenters versus (与……相对)everyone else, the split in our economy is really between two other classes: the mobile and immobile.E)Part of the problem is that the country’s largest industries are in decline. In the past, it wasperfectly clear where young people should go for work (Chicago in the 1870s, Detroit in the 1910s, Houston in the 1970s)and, more or less, what they’d be doing when they got there (killing cattle, building cars, selling oil). And these industries were large enough to offer jobs to each class of worker, from unskilled laborer to manager or engineer. Today, the few bright spots in our economy are relatively small (though some promise future growth)and decentralized. There are great jobs in Silicon Valley, in the biotech research capitals of Boston and Raleigh-Durham and in advanced manufacturing plants along the southern I-85 corridor. These companies recruit all over the country and the globe for workers with specific abilities. (You don’t need to be the next Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, to get a job in one of the microhubs (微中心), by the way. But you will almost certainly need at least a B.A. in computer science or a year or two at a technical school.)This newer, select job market is national, and it offers members of the mobile class competitive salaries and higher bargaining power.F)Many members of the immobile class, on the other hand, 1ive in the America of the gloomy headlines. If you have no specialized skills, there’s little reason to uproot to another state and be the last in line for a low-paying job at a new auto plant or a green-energy startup. The surprise in the census (普查)data, however, is that the immobile workforce is not limited to unskilled workers. In fact, many have a college degree.G) Until now, a B.A. in any subject was a near-guarantee of at least middle-class wages. But today, a quarter of college graduates make less than the typical worker without a bachelor’s degree. David Autor, a prominent labor economist at M.I.T., recently told me that a college degree alone is no longer a guarantor of a good job. While graduates from top universities are still likely to get a good job no matter what their major is, he said, graduates from less-famous schools are going to be judged on what they know. To compete for jobs on a national level, they should be armed with the skills that emerging industries need, whether technical or not.H) Those without such specialized skills—like poetry, or even history, majors—are already competing with their neighbors for the same sorts of second-rate, poorer-paying local jobs like low-level management or big-box retail sales. And with the low-skilled labor market atomized into thousands of microeconomies, immobile workers are less able to demand better wages or conditions or to acquire valuable skills.I)So what, exactly, should the ambitious young worker of today be learning? Unfortunately, it’s hard to say, since the US doesn’t have one clear national project. There are plenty of emerging, smaller industries, but which ones are the most promising? (Nanotechnology’s(纳米技术)moment of remarkable growth seems to have been 5 years into the future for something like 20 years now.)It’s not clear exactly what skills are most needed or if they will even be valuable in a decade.J)What is clear is that all sorts of government issues—education, health-insurance portability, worker retraining—are no longer just bonuses to already prosperous lives but existential requirements. It’s in all of our interests to make sure that as many people as possible are able to move toward opportunity, and America’s ability to invest people and money in exciting new ideas is still greater than that of most other wealthy countries. (As recently as five years ago, US migration was twice the rate of European Union states.)That, at least, is some comfort at a time when our national economy seems to be searching for its next story line.46. Unlike in the past, a college degree alone does not guarantee a good job for its holder.47. The census data is surprising in that college graduates are also among the immobile workforce.48. New figures released by the government show that Americans today are less mobile than ever before.49. The migration of old people from cold to warm places made many jobs available to the young.50. America is better at innovation than most other rich nations.51. Early American history is one of moving outward.52. Young people don’t know what to learn because it is hard to predict what skills are most needed or valued ten years from now.53. Computer or other technical skills are needed to get a well-paying job in high-tech or advanced manufacturing.54. When the frontier vanished about a century ago, America found new economic mobility in industrialization.55. America today can be divided into two classes: those who move and those who don’t.Section CDirections: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C)and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.A new study shows a large gender gap on economic policy among the nation’s professional economists, a divide similar to the gender divide found in the general public.“As a group, we are pro-market,”says Ann Mari May, co-author of the study and a University of Nebraska economist. “But women are more likely to accept government regulation and involvement in economic activity than our male colleagues.”“It’s very puzzling,”says free market economist Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. “Not a day goes by that I don’t ask myself why there are so few women economists on the free market side.”A native of France, de Rugy supported government intervention (干预)early in her life but changed her mind after studying economics. “We want many of the same things as liberals—less poverty, more health care—but have radically different ideas on how to achieve it.”Liberal economist Dean Baker, co-founder of the Center for Economic Policy and Research, says male economists have been on the inside of the profession, confirming each other’s anti-regulation views. Women, as outsiders, “are more likely to think independently or at least see people outside of the economics profession as forming their peer group,” he says.The gender balance in economics is changing. One-third of economics doctorates (博士学位)now go to women. “More diversity is needed at the table when public policy is discussed,”May says.Economists do agree on some things. Female economists agree with men that Europe has too much regulation and that Wal-mart is good for society. Male economists agree with their female colleagues that military spending is too high.The genders are most divorced from each other on the question of equality for women. Male economists overwhelmingly think the wage gap between men and women is largely the result of individuals’ skills, experience and voluntary choices. Female economists overwhelmingly disagree by a margin of 4-to-1.The biggest disagreement: 76% of women say faculty opportunities in economics favor men. Male economists point the opposite way: 80% say women are favored or the process is neutral.56. What is the finding of the new study?A)The gender divide is a big concern of the general public.B)Men and women understand economics quite differently.C)The gap between male and female economists needs to be closed.D)Male and female economists disagree widely on economic policy.57. What does Ann Mari May say about female economists?A)They are strongly against male domination in the economics profession.B)They tend to support government intervention in economic activity.C)They usually play an active role in public policy-making.D)They are mostly strong advocates of free market economy.58. What do we learn about economist Veronique de Rugy?A)She represents most female economists’ standpoint.B)She devotes herself to eliminating women’s poverty.C)Her study of economics changed her view on government’s role in economic activities.D)Her academic background helped her get into the inner circle of the economics profession.59. What does Ann Mari May imply about public policy-making?A)More female economists should get involved.B)It should do justice to female economists’ studies.C)More attention should be paid to women’s rights.D)It should aim at sustainable development.60. On what issue do male and female economists differ most?A)Government regulation. C)Military spending.B)Job creation. D)Gender equality.Passage TwoQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.The number of postgraduate students travelling from non-EU countries to study at UK universities has fallen for the first time in 16 years, fuelling fears that the government’s immigration crackdown is discouraging thousands of the brightest students from continuing their studies in Britain.Jo Beall, British Council director of education and society, said the fall would cause alarm among UK vice-chancellors(大学行政主管). “The sector was expecting a decline in growth, butthe actual reduction in postgraduate numbers is of real concern as international students make up the majority of numbers in many postgraduate courses and research teams in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.”“Attracting the brightest and most ambitious postgraduate and research students is critical if the UK is to maintain its quality reputation for research,” Beall said.Universities get a third of their tuition (学费)fee revenue from non-EU students. There is growing fear among vice-chancellors that this revenue—as well as the cultural, academic and economic benefit international students bring—is being put at risk.Tim Westlake, director for the student experience at Manchester University, said students whose families relied on them working in the UK after their studies to gain experience and repay the fees were starting to look elsewhere.Last month the home secretary, Theresa May, announced that embassy staff would interview more than 100,000 applicants in an attempt to prevent bogus(假冒的)ones entering the country. She also said immigrants were responsible for pushing up UK house prices. The comments followed the introduction of new limitations on students’right to work during and after their studies.Beall said: “Government statistics for the first time provide real evidence that the changes to UK visa regulations may have discouraged many students from applying to the UK, and in particular postgraduate students who are so important to the UK’s research output. The UK enjoys an excellent reputation around the world for the high quality of our education system, so the government needs to ensure that institutions have all the support they need to attract international students who make a tremendous academic, cultural and economic contribution to the UK.”61. What has caused the decline of the number of non-EU postgraduates in the UK?A)The increase in tuition and fees. C)Changed immigration policies.B)The ever-rising living expenses. D)Universities’ tightened budgets.62. What is UK vice-chancellors’ biggest concern?A)How to obtain financial support from the government.B)How to keep the academic reputation of their institutions.C)How to prevent bogus applicants entering their universities.D)How to stimulate the creativity of their research teams.63. Why do UK universities try to attract postgraduate students from outside the EU?A)A substantial part of their revenue comes from non-EU students’ tuition and fees.B)Non-EU postgraduate students are usually highly motivated.C)The number of UK postgraduate students has fallen sharply.D)Some of the postgraduate programmes are specially designed for non-EU students. 64. What were the expectations of some non-EU students’ families?A)Their children could enjoy the UK’s cultural benefits.B)Their children could find well-paying jobs upon their return.C)Their children could become established academically.D)Their children could work in the UK after graduation.65. What does Beall suggest the UK government should do?A)Allow promising international students to work in research teams.B)Revise UK visa regulations to accommodate non-EU students.C)Give universities adequate support to attract non-EU students.D)Try to address the needs of international students in the UK.Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.

In fact,by the1950s,there was enough prosperity and white-collar work that many began to move to the suburbs.As the population aged,there was also a shift from the cold Rust Belt to the comforts of the Sun Belt.We think of this as an old person's migration,but it created many jobs for the young in construction and health care,not to mention tourism,retail and restaurants.C)For the last20years-from the end of the cold war through two burst bubbles in a single decade--the US has been casting about for its next economic narrative.And now it is experiencing another period of panic,which is bad news for much of the workforce but particularly for its youngest members. D)The US has always been a remarkably mobile country,but new data from the Census Bureau indicate that mobility has reached its lowest level in recorded history.Sure,some people are stuck in homes valued at less than their mortgages(抵押贷款),but many young people who don't own homes and don't yet have families—are staying put,too.This suggests,among other things,that people aren't packing up for new economic opportunities the way they used to. Rather than dividing the country into the1percenters versus(与......相对)everyone else,the split in our economy is really between two other classes: the mobile and immobile.E)Part of the problem is that the country's largest industries are in decline.In the past,it was perfectly clear where young people should go for work(Chicago in the1870s,Detroit in the1910s.Houston in the1970s)and,more or less,what they'd be doing when they got there(killing cattle,building cars,selling oil). And these industries were large enough to offer jobs to each class of worker, from unskilled laborer to manager or engineer.Today,the few bright spots in our economy are relatively small(though some promise future growth)and decentralized.There are great jobs in Silicon Valley,in the biotech research capitals of Boston and Raleigh-Durham and in advanced manufacturing plants along the southern z-85corridor.These companies recruit all over the countryand the globe for workers with specific abilities.(You don't need to be the next Mark Zuckerberg,founder of Facebook,to get a job in one of the microhubs(微中心),by the way.But you will almost certainly need at least a B.A.in computer science or a year or two at a technical school.)This newer,select job market is national,and it offers members of the mobile class competitive salaries and higher bargaining power.F)Many members of the immobile class,on the other hand,live in the America of the gloomy headlines.If you have no specialized skills,there's little reason to uproot to another state and be the last in line for a low-paying job at a new auto plant or a green-energy startup.The surprise in the census(普查)data,however, is that the immobile workforce is not limited to unskilled workers.In fact,many have a college degree.G)Until now,a B.A.in any subject was a near-guarantee of at leastmiddle-class wages.But today,a quarter of college graduates make less than the typical worker without a bachelor's degree.David Autor,a prominent labor economist at M.I.T.,recently told me that a college degree alone is no longer a guarantor of a good job.While graduates from top universities are still likely to get a good job no matter what their major is,he said,graduates fromless-famous schools are going to be judged on what they know.To compete for jobs on a national level,they should be armed with the skills that emerging industries need,whether technical or not.H)Those without such specialized skills like poetry,or even history,majors are already competing with their neighbors for the same sorts of second-rate, poorer-paying local jobs like low-level management or big-box retail sales.And with the low-skilled labor market atomized into thousands of microeconomics, immobile workers are less able to demand better wages or conditions or to acquire valuable skills.I)So what,exactly,should the ambitious young worker of today be learning? Unfortunately,it's hard to say,since the US doesn't have one clear national project.There are plenty of emerging,smaller industries,but which ones are the most promising?(Nanotechnology's(纳米技术)moment of remarkable growth seems to have been5years into the future for something like20years now.)It's not clear exactly what skills are most needed or if they will even be valuable in a decade.J)What is clear is that all sorts of government issues—education, health-insurance portability,worker retraining—are no longer just bonuses to already prosperous lives but existential requirements.It's in all of our interests to make sure that as many people as possible are able to move toward opportunity,and America's ability to invest people and money in exciting new ideas is still greater than that of most other wealthy countries.(As recently as five years ago,US migration was twice the rate of European Union states.)That, at least,is some comfort at a time when our national economy seems to be searching for its next story line.47.Unlike in the past,a college degree alone does not guarantee a good job for its holder.48.The census data is surprising in that college graduates are also among the immobile workforce.49.New figures released by the government show that Americans today are less mobile than ever before.50.The migration of old people from cold to warm places made many jobs available to the young.51.America is better at innovation than most other rich nations.52.Early American history is one of moving outward.53.Young people don't know what to learn because it is hard to predict what skills are most needed or valued ten years from now.54.Computer or other technical skills are needed to get a well-paying job in high-tech or advanced manufacturing.55.When the frontier vanished about a century ago,America found new economic mobility in industrialization.56.America today can be divided into two classes:those who move and those who don't.Section CA new study shows a large gender gap on economic policy among the nation s professional economists,a divide similar to the gender divide found in the general public."As a group,we are pro-market,"says Ann Mari May,co-author of the study and a University of Nebraska economist."But women are more likely to accept government regulation and involvement in economic activity than our male colleagues.""It's very puzzling,"says free market economist Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University."Not a day goes by that I don't ask myself why there are so few women economists on the free market side."A native of France,de Rugy supported government intervention(干预)early in her life but changed her mind after studying economics."We want many of the same things as liberals—less poverty,more health care—but have radically different ideas on how to achieve it."Liberal economist Dean Baker,co-founder of the Center for Economic Policy and Research,says male economists have been on the inside of the profession,confirming each other's anti-regulation views.Women,as outsiders, "are more likely to think independently or at least see people outside of the economics profession as forming their peer group,"he says.The gender balance in economics is changing.One-third of economics doctorates(博士学位)now go to women."More diversity is needed at the table when public policy is discussed,"May says.Economists do agree on some things.Female economists agree with men that Europe has too much regulation and that Wal-mart is good for society.Male economists agree with their female colleagues that military spending is too high.The genders are most divorced from each other on the question of equality for women.Male economists overwhelmingly think the wage gap between men and women is largely the result of individuals'skills,experience and voluntary choices.Female economists overwhelmingly disagree by a margin of4-to-l.The biggest disagreement:76%of women say faculty opportunities in economics favor men.Male economists point the opposite way:80%say women are favored or the process is neutral.57.What is the finding of the new study?A.The gender divide is a big concern of the general public.B.Men and women understand economics quite differently.C.The gap between male and female economists needs to be closed. D.Male and female economists disagree widely on economic policy. 58.What does Ann Mari May say about female economists?A.They are strongly against male domination in the economics profession.B.They tend to support government intervention in economic activity. C.They usually play an active role in public policy-making.D.They are mostly strong advocates of free market economy.59.What do we learn about economist Veronique de Rugy?A.She represents most female economists'standpoint.B.She devotes herself to eliminating women's poverty.C.Her study of economics changed her view on government's role in economic activities.D.Her academic background helped her get into the inner circle of the economics profession.60.What does Ann Mari May imply about public policy-making?A.More female economists should get involved.B.It should do justice to female economists'studies.C.More attention should be paid to women's rights.D.It should aim at sustainable development.61.On what issue do male and female economists differ most? A.Government regulation.B.Job creation.C.Military spending.D.Gender equality.The number of postgraduate students travelling from non-EU countries to study at UK universities has fallen for the first time in16years,fuelling fears that the government's immigration crackdown is discouraging thousands of the brightest students from continuing their studies in Britain.Jo Beall,British Council director of education and society,said the fall would cause alarm among UK vice-chancellors(大学行政主管)."The sector was expecting a decline in growth,but the actual reduction in postgraduate numbers is of real concern as international students make up the majority of numbers in many postgraduate courses and research teams in science,technology,engineering and mathematics.""Attracting the brightest and most ambitious postgraduate and research students is critical if the UK is to maintain its quality reputation for research," Beall said.Universities get a third of their tuition(学费)fee revenue from non-EU students.There is growing,fear among vice-chancellors that this revenue—as well as the cultural,academic and economic benefit international students bring—is being put at risk.Tim Westlake.director for the student experience at Manchester University,said students whose families relied on them working in the UK after their studies to gain experience and repay the fees were starting to look elsewhere.Last month the home secretary,Theresa May.announced that embassy staff would interview more than100000applicants in an attempt to prevent bogus(假冒的)ones entering the country.She also said immigrants were responsible for pushing up UK house prices.The comments followed the introduction of new limitations on students'right to work during and after their studies.Beall said:"Government statistics for the first time provide real evidence that the changes to UK visa regulations may have discouraged many students from applying to the UK,and in particular postgraduate Students who are so important to the UK's research output.The UK enjoys an excellent reputation around the world for the high quality of our education system,so the government needs to ensure that institutions have all the support they need to attract international students who make a tremendous academic,cultural and economic contribution to the UK."62.What has caused the decline of the number of non-EU postgraduates in the UK?A.The increase in tuition and fees.B.The ever-rising living expenses.C.Changed immigration policies.D.Universities'tightened budgets.63.What is UK vice-chancellors'biggest concern?A.How to obtain financial support from the government.B.How to keep the academic reputation of their institutions.C.How to prevent bogus applicants entering their universities.D.How to stimulate the creativity of their research teams.64.Why do UK universities try to attract postgraduate students from outside the EU?A.A substantial part of their revenue comes from non-EU students' tuition and fees.B.Non-EU postgraduate students arc usually highly motivated.C.The number of UK postgraduate students has fallen sharply.D.Some of the postgraduate programmes are specially designed for non-EU students.65.What were the expectations of some non-EU students'families?A.Their children could enjoy the UK's cultural benefits. B.Their children could find well-paying jobs upon their return.C.Their children could become established academically.D.Their children could work in the UK after graduation.66.What does Beall suggest the UK government should do?A.Allow promising international students to work in research teams. B.Revise UK visa regulations to accommodate non-EU students.C.Give universities adequate support to attract non-EU students.D.Try to address the needs of international students in the UK.PartⅣTranslation67.“你要茶还是要咖啡?”是用餐人常被问到的问题。

【精彩范文】The Impact of the Internet on the Way People Communicate[1] The ironic picture is about a father and a mother [2] writing a letter to their son who is upstairs. The father and mother greet the son, Andy, and tell him they are fine and miss him and look forward to seeing him again when his computer crashes and he comes downstairs to eat. [3] The child is overusing the Internet. [4] From the ironic picture we can see the impact of Internet on the way people communicate.Can electronic communication replace face-to-face contact? [5] The answer is “No”. [6] Forone thing, electronic communication makes people feel strange although it does help people communicate, especially for those who are far away or inconvenient to talk, [7] where as face-to-face contact makes people feel psychologically [8] intimate and affectionate. [6] For another, people cannot express themselves fully through the Internet. Thus, misunderstandings may be aroused.[9] In my opinion, I do not object to electronic communication, but it cannot replaceface-to-face communication.【名师点评】[1] 总述图画内容[2] 现在分词短语作后置定语,表达更简洁[3] 指出现象:过度使用网络[4] 点明寓意:网络对人们的日常交流方式产生了影响[5] 用设问句提出观点:电子通讯不能取代面对面的交流[6] 阐述两点原因:一方面,电子通讯疏远人们的关系;另一方面,电子通讯使表达不充分,容易造成误解。

For each question or statement there are 4 choicesmarked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice and mark thecorresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Finding a good work-at-home job is not easy. Although you see all the online advertising, there aren’t that many of them. Those that are available may require that you live in a certain area or spend at least some time in the office. Others man be only part-time jobs.Keep in mind that the skills needed for home employment are similar to those needed for working in an office. You’ll also need a home office with a high speed internet connection, phone, fax, computer, printer, and other basic office equipment.To get started, consider your job search as your job. Spend as many hours per week on your job search as you would spend working. If you’re looking for full-time work, you should be spending full-time hours seeking a job.Networking ( 人际联系)remains the top way to find a job and it does work. Develop contacts—friends, family, even the other job seekers—anyone who might have the information you need. You can take a direct approach and ask for job information or try a less formal approach and ask for information and advice. Contact everyone you know and tell them you want to work from home. You may be surprised by the people they know and the job information they can provide.36. According to the first paragraph, it is not easy to find good work-at-home jobs because__________.A. they are seldom advertised online or in newspapersB. they may require that you live in a certain placeC. you are always asked to work full-timeD. you need to have a college degree37. Compared with those needed for working in an office, the skills for working at homeare_________.A. much easierB. totally differentC. almost the sameD. more challenging38.

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.Running your small business requires good staff. Once you find them, you don’t want to let them go elsewhere.During an employee’s time with a company, there are a number of forces that influence his or her behavior. I like to refer to them as “push”and “pull”. You’re either pushing an employee towards the door, or pulling them deeper into your organization.Suppose that you’ve made a good hire and you want to keep the employees, the trick is to recognize individual needs of employees and satisfy those needs, within reason, on order to keep pulling them away from the door. Even if you can’t pull them away from the door, at least don’t do things to push them out the door.Recognize that some employees will lose interest and need something fresh to keep their interest. If you can’t continually provide challenges, opportunities for promotion and other interesting and rewarding opportunities, then you’ll have some employees leave through no fault of your own,The important thing is to identify your key employees and make certain they are being treated well. Communicate with them on a regular basis to make certain that you understand what makes them behave in a particular way, and be aware of concerns they may have about job satisfaction.41. The author uses the word “push” (Para.2) to mean the force that _______.A. makes employees satisfied with their workB. drives employees to work more efficientlyC. causes employees to leave their companyD. keep employees to remain in their company42. To keep your employees, you are advised to _______.A. recognize and meet their needsB. identify and overcome their faultsC. offer them a salary as high as possibleD. provide them with a better working condition43. According to the passage, when is it possible for some employees to lose interest ?A. they have no rewarding opportunities.B. The company is located in a remote area.C. They make an mistakes in their workD. The company is not big enough for development44. How should you deal with your key employees according to the last paragraph?A. Make them behave well.B. Meet with them every day.C. Pay regular visits to their familyD. Make sure they are well-treated.45. The passage is mainly about __________.A. how to keep your employeesB. the importance of key employeesC. how to challenge your employeesD. the difference between “push” and “pull”Task 3Directions: Read the following passage. After reading it, you are required to complete the outline below it (No.46 to No.50).

2013年12月三级试题答案Part I Listening ComprehensionSection A1-5 CCDBA 6-10 AAACDSection B11-15 BCABC 16-20 DADAASection CThe roots of Canadian English can be found in the events which follow the American Revolution of 1776. Those who had supported Britain found themselves unable to stay in the new United States, and most went to the Ontario region of Canada. From there they spread to all parts of the country. They were soon followed by many thousands who were attracted by the cheapness of land. Within fifty years, the population of Upper Canada had reached 100,000-- mainly people from the United Sates.In the east, the Atlantic Provinces had been settled with English speakers much earlier. But even today these areas contain less than 10 percent of the population, so that they have only a minor role in the development of Canadian ‘norm’. In Quebec, the use of French language and culture remains from the first period of exploration, with the majority of people using French as the mother tongue : here English and French coexist uneasily.Because of its origins, Canadian English has a great deal in common with the rest of the English spoken in North America--and it’s often difficult to distinguish for people who live outside the region. To British people, Canadians may sound American; to Americans, they may sound British. Canadians themselves insist on not being identified with either, and certainly there is a great deal of evidence in support of this view.21. supported22. spread23. cheapness24. reached25. even26. minor27. remains28. using French as the mother tongue29. it’s often difficult to distinguish for people30. not being identified with eitherPart II Reading ComprehensionSection A Passage Reading31-35 CDAAC 36-40 CCDBD 41-45 DABDB .Section B46-50 HNAGO 51-55 LDJCBPart III Integrated TestingSection A Cloze56-60DBDAA 61-65ACDBD 66-70BBAAA 71-75 DBCCDSection B76. 【答案】It means network.77. 【答案】People can find various types of information.78. 【答案】communicating79. 【答案】any personal information80. 【答案】Be careful to decide whether the information is true.。

Finally, when the passage is read for the third time, you should check what you have written.You probably have noticed that people express similar ideas in different ways, depending on the situation they are in. This is very 26 All languages have two general levels of usage : a formal level and an informal level. English is no 27 . The difference in these two levels is the situation in which you use a 28 level. Formal language is the ldnd of language you find in textbooks, 29 , and in business letters. You would also use formal English in compositions and 30 that you write in school. Informal language is used in conversation with colleagues, family members and friends, and when we write 31 notes or letters to close friends.Formal language is different from informal language 32 . First, formal language tends to be more polite. What we may find interesting is that it usually takes more words to be polite. For example, I might say to a friend or a family member, "Close the door, please. " but to a 33 , I probably would say,"Would you mind closing the door?"Another difference between formal and informal language is some of the 34 There are bound to be some words and phrases that 35 formal language and others that are informal. Let's say that I really like soccer. If I'm talking to my friend, I might say "I'm just crazy about soccer !" But if I were talldng to my boss, I would probably say "I really enjoy soccer. "Part ⅢReading Comprehension (40 minutes)Section ADirections: In this section, there is a passage with ten blanks. You arerequired to select one word for each blank from a list of choices given in a word bank following the passage. Read the passage through carefully before making your choices. Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. Please mark the corresponding letter for each item on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once. Questions 36 to 45 are based on the following passage.The mobile phone is a m~gic device widely used these days. Although it has been nearly 30 years since the first commercial mobile-phone network was launched, advertisers have yet to figure out how to get their 36 out to mobile-phone users in a big way. There are 2.2 billion cell-phone users worldwide, a 37 that is growing by about 25% each year. Yet spending on ads carried over cell-phone networks l’t year 38 t o just $ 1.5 billion worldwide, a fraction of the $ 424 billion global ad market.But as the number of eyeballs glued to 39 screens multiplies, so too does the mobile phone's value as a pocket billboard (广告的). Consumers are 40 using their phones for things other than voice calls, such as text messaging, downloading songs and games, and 41 the Internet. By 2010,70 million Asians are expected to be watching videos and TV programs on mobile phones. All of these activities give advertisem 42 options for reaching audiences. During soccer's World Cup last summer, for example, Adidas used real-time scores and games to 43 thousands of fans to a website set up for mobile-phone access. "Ourtarget audience was males aged 17 to 25 ," says Marcus Spurrell, Adidas regional manager for Asia. "Their mobiles are always on, always in their pocket--you just can't 44. cell phones as an advertising tool. " Mobile-phone marketing has become as 45 a platform as TV, online or print.A) accessingB) amountedC) approachingD) attractE) casualF) charactexsG) freshH) ignoreI) increasinglyJ) messagesK) patientlyL) tinyM) totalN) violatedO) vitalSection BDirections: In this section, you are going to read a passage with ten statements attached to it. Each statement contains information given in one of the paraffraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You .may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2.A Mess on the Ladder of SuccessA) Throughout American history there has almost always been at least one central economic narrative that gave the ambitious or unsatisfied reason to pack up and seek their fortune elsewhere. For the first 300 or so years of European settlement, the story was about moving outward: getting immigrants to the continent and then to the frontier to clear the prairies ( 大草原), drain the wetlands and build new cities.B) By the end of the 19th century, as the frontier vanished, the US had a mild panic attack. What would this energetic, enterprising country be without new lands to conquer? Some people, such as Teddy Roosevelt, decided to keep on conquering ( Cuba, the Philippines, etc. ), but eventually, in industrialization, the US found a new narrative of economic mobility at home. From the 1890s to the1960s, people moved from farm to city, first in the North and then in the South. In fact, by the 1950s, there was enough prosperity and white-collar work that many began to move to the suburbs. As the population aged, there was also a shift from the cold Rust Belt to the comforts of the Sun Belt, We think of this as an old person's migration, but it created many jobs for the young in coustruction and health care, not to mention tourism, retail and restaurants.C) For the last 20 years-from the end of the cold war through two burst bubbles in a single decade--the US has been casting about for its next economic narrative. And now it is experienc.ing another period of panic, which is bad news for much of the workforce but particularly for its youngest members.D) The US has always been a remarkably mobile country, but new data from the Census Bureau indicate that mobility has reached its lowest level in recorded history. Sure, some people are stuck in homes valued at less than their mortgages (抵押贷款), but many young people,-who don't own homes and don't yet have famih'es--are staying put, too. This suggests, among other things, that people aren't packing up for neweconomic opportmtities the way they used to. Rather than dividing the country into the 1 percenters versus ( 与……相对) everyone else, the split in our economy is really between two other classes: the mobile and immobile.E) Part of the problem is that the country's largest industries are in decline. In the past, it was perfectly clear where young people should go for work (Chicago in the 1870s, Detroit in the 1910s, Houston in the 1970s) and, more or less, what they'd be doing when they got there ( killing cattle, building cars,~ selling oil). And these industries were large enough to offer jobs to each class of worker, from unskilled laborer to manager or engineer. Today, the few bright spots in our economy are relatively small (though some promise future growth) and decentralized. There are great jobs in Silicon Valley, in the biotech research capitals of Boston and Raleigh-Durham and in advanced manufacturing plants along the southern 1-85 corridor. These companies recruit all over the country and the globe for workers with specific abilities. (You don't need to be the next Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, to get a job in one of the microhubs (微中心), by the way. But you will almost certainly need at least a B, A. in computer science or a year or two at a technical school. ) This newer, select job market is national, and it offers members of the mobile class competitive salaries and higher bargaining power.F) Many members of the immobile class, on the other hand, live in the America of the gloomy headlines. If you have no specialized skills, there's little reason to uproot to another state and be the last in line for a low-paying job at a new auto plant or a green-energy startup. The surprise in the census (普查) data, however, is that the immobile workforce is not limited to unskilled workers. In fact, many have a college degree.G) Until now, a B.A. in any subject was a near-guarantee of at least middle-class wages. But today, a quarter of college graduates make less than the typical worker without a bachelor's degree. David Autor, a prominent labor economist at M. I. T., recently told me that a college degree alone is no longer a guarantor of a good job. While graduates from top universities are still likely to get a good job no matter what their major is, he said, graduates from less-famous schools are going to be judged on what they know. To compete for jobs on a national level, they should be armed with the skills that emerging industries need, whether technical or not.H) Those without such specialized skills--like poetry, or even history, majors--are already competing with their neighbors for the same sorts of second-rate, poorer-paying local jobs like low-level management or big-box retail sales. And with the low-skilled labor market atomized into thousands of microeconomies, immobile workers are less able to demand better wages or conditious or to acquire valuable skills.I) So what, exactly, should the ambitious young worker of today be learning? Unfortunately, it's hard to say, since the US doesn't have one clear national project. There are plenty of emerging, smaller industries, but which ones are the most promising? (Nanotechnology's (纳米技术) moment of remarkable growth seems to have been 5 years into the future for something like 20 years now. ) It's not clear exactly what skills are most needed or if they will even be valuable in a decade.J) What is clear is that all sorts of government issues education, health-insurance portability, worker retraining--are no longer just bonuses to already prosperous lives but existential requirements. It's in all of our interests to make sure that as many people as possible are able to move toward opportunity, and, America's ability to invest people and money in exciting new ideas is still greater than that of most other wealthy countries. (As recently as five years ago, US migration was twice the rate of European Union states. ) That, at least, is some comfort at a time when our national economy seems to be searching for its next story line.46. Unlike in the past, a college degree alone does not guarantee a good job for its holder.47. The census data is surprising in that college graduates are also among the immobile workforce.48. New figures released by the government show that Americans today are less mobile than ever before.49. The migration of old people from cold to warm places made many jobs available to the young.50. America is better at innovation than most other rich nations.51. Early American history is one of moving outward.52. Young people don't know what to learn because it is hard to predict what skills are most needed or valued ten years from now.53. Computer or other technical skills are needed to get a well-paying job in high-tech, or advanced manufacturing.54. When the frontier vanished about a century ago, America found new economic mobility in industrialization.55. America today can be divided into two classes., those who move and those who don't.Section CDirections:There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A ) , B), C) and D ). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.Passage OneQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.A new study shows a large gender gap on economic policy among the nation's professionaleconomists, a divide similar to the gender divide found in the general public."As a group, we are pro-market," says Ann Marl May, co-author of the study and a University of Nebraska economist. "But women are more likely to accept government regulation and involvement in economic activity than our male colleagues. ""It's very puzzling," says free market economist Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University. "Not a .day goes by that I don't ask myself why there are so few women economists on the free market side. "A native of France, de Rugy supported government intervention (干预) early in her life but changed her mind after studying economics. "We want many of the same things as liberals--less poverty, more health care--but have radically different ideas on how to achieve it. "IAberal economist Dean Baker, co-founder of the Center for Economic Policy and Research, says male economists have been on the inside of the profession, confirming each other's antiregulation views. Women, as outsiders, "are more likely to think independently or at least see people outside of the economics profession as forming their peer group," he says.The gender balance in economics is changing. One-third of economics doctorates (博士学位) now go to women. "More diversity is needed at the table when pubflc policy is discussed," May says.Economists do agree on some things. Female economists agree with men that Europe has too much regulation and that Wal-mart is good for society. Male economists agree with their, female colleagues that military spending is too high.The genders are most divorced from each other on the question of equality for women. Male economists overwhelmingly think the wage gap between men and women is largely the result of indi~fluals' skills, experience and voluntary choices. Female economists overwhelmingly disagree by a margin of 4-to-1.The biggest disagreement: 76% of women say faculty opportunities in economics favor men. Male economists point the opposite way: 80% say women are favored or the process is neutral.56. What is the finding of the new study?A) The gender divide is a big concern of the general public.B) Men and women understand economics quite differently.C) The gap between male and female economists needs to be closed.D) Male and female economists disagree widely on economic policy,57. What does Ann Mari May say about female economists?A) They are strongly against male domination in the economics profession.B) They tend to support government intervention in economic activity.C) They usually play an active role in public policy-making.D) They are mostly strong advocates of free market economy.58. What do we learn about economist Veronique de Rugy?A) She represents most female economists' standpoint.B) She devotes herself to eliminating women's poverty.C) Her study of economics changed her view on government's role in economic activitieslD) Her academic background helped her get into the inner circle of the economics profession.59. What does Ann Marl May imply about public policy, making?A) More female economists should get involved.B) It should do justice to female economists' studies.C) More attention should be paid to women's rights.D) It should aim at sustainable development.60. On what issue do male and female economists differ most?A) Government regulation.B) Job creation.C) Military spending.D) Gender equality.Passage TwoQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following pa~age.The number of postgraduate students travelling from non-EU countries to study at UK universities has fallen for the first time in 16 years, fuelling fears that the government's immigration crackdown is discouraging thousands of the brightest students from continuing their studies in Brid.Jo Beall, British Council director of education and society, said the fall would cause alarm among UK vice-chancellors (大学行政主管). "The sector was expecting a decline in growth, but the actual reduction in postgraduate numbers is of real concern as international-students make up the m~ority of numbers in many postgraduate courses and research teams in science, technology, engineering and mathematics. " "Attracting the brightest and most ambitious postgraduate and research students is critical if the UK is to maintain its quality reputation for research," Beall said.Universities get a third of their tuition (学费) fee revenue from non-EU students. There is growing fear among vice-chancellors that this revenue-as well as the cultural, academic and economic benefit international students bring--is being put at risk.Tim Westlake, director for the student experience at Manchester University, said students whose families relied on them working in the UK after their studies to gain experience and repay the fees werestarting to look elsewhere.Last month the home secretary, Theresa May, announced that embassy staff would interview more than 100,000 applicants in an attempt to prevent bogus (假冒的) ones entering the country. She also said immigrants were responsible for pushing up UK house prices. The comments followed the introduction ofnew limitations on students' right to work during and after their studies.Beall said:" Government statistics for the first time provide real evidence that the changes to UK visa regulations may have discouraged many students from applying to the UK, and in particular postgraduate students Who are so important to the UKs research output. The UK enjoys an eXcellent reputation around the world for the high quality of our education system, so the government needs to ensure that institutions have all the support they need to attract international students who make a tremendous academic, cultural and economic contribution to the UK. "61. What has caused the decline of the number of non-EU postgraduates in the UK?A) The increase in tuition and fees.B) The ever-rising living expenses.C) Changed immigration policies.D) Universities' tightened budgets62. What is UK vice-chancellors' biggest concern?A) How to obtain financial support from the government.B) How to keep the academic reputation of their institutions.C) How to prevent bogus applicants entering their universities.D) How to stimulate the creativity of their research teams.63. Why do UK universities try to attract postgraduate students from outside the EU?A) A substantial part of their revenue comes from non-EU students' tuition and fees. B) Non-EU postgraduate students are usually highly motivated.C) The number of UK postgraduate students has fallen sharply.D) Some of the postgraduate progrmnmes are specially designed for non-EU students.64. What were the expectations of some non-EU students' families?A) Their children could enjoy the UKs cultural benefits.B) Their children could find well-paying jobs upon their return.C) Their children could become established academically.D) Their children could work in the UK after graduation.65. What does Beall suggest the UK government should do?A) Allow promising international students to work in research teams.B) Revise UK visa regulations to accommodate non-EU students.C) Give universities adequate support to attract non-EU students.D) Try to address the needs of international students in the UK.Part IV Translation (30 minutes)Directions: For this part, you are allowed 30 'minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet 2.“你要茶还是要咖啡?”是用餐人常被问到的问题。

词汇:1device设备,器具,装置devise v.发明,设计2launch v.发射,发起,发动,(使轮船)下水,(使飞机)起飞3figure out算出,解决4advertiser广告商,advertisement广告,advertise v.做广告5fraction分数,小部分6consumer消费者,consume v消费time-consuming耗时的,energy-consuming 耗能的energy consumption能源消耗7be expected to do sth.预计...8option n.选择opt v.选择,optional可选的,选修的近义词:choice,alternative (二中选一,供替代的选择)9target audience目标观众,受众10 regional manager区域经理,大区经理11marketing营销,销售,行销12access通路,进入,使用权;进入,使用,读取13amount v.总计,合计,数量为n.数量,总额14ignore忽略,忽视15vital重要的≈crucial,decisive,significant,critical。
16.Violate v.违反,侵犯Section B阅读新题型快速阅读做题顺序:看一段,做一题。
具体来说,看完A段,然后去后面46-55搜索可能跟A段有关的选项。
然后看B段,去后面46-55找可能去B段有关的选项。
以此类推。
(因为46-55的选项的顺序是打乱的,并不符合阅读材料的行文顺序,所以适合很多阅读的“选项找关键词+原文定位+然后比对做题”的顺序根本不适应这道题,切记。
