K. Chesterton once said, “There is no such thin g as an uninteresting subject; there are only uninterested people.” Listening is a skill that 1) requires coordination of the listener’s mental powers with an outside force (the person or thing which is being listened to). In addition, listening is three-2) dimensional; listen critically with the ears, 3) thoughtfully with the mind, and understandingly with the eyes.(1) Good listeners need to think around the topic by listening between the 4) lines, and anticipate the instructor’s5) next point.(2) Good listeners 6) summarize what has been said and put instructor’sthoughts into their 7) own words.(3) Good listeners listen with a pencil in their hands and take good 8) notes.(4) Good listeners try to get as much 9)out of a lecture as from a chapter in a book.(5) Good listeners avoid supersensitive listening, i.e. not 10) refuse to listen to anything they don’t agree with.(6) Good listeners sit near the 11) front so as not to miss anything.People who are good listeners manage to judge the 12) content, and not the delivery. They realize that not all instructors are good lecturers. Some instructors have a very nervous demeanor ( 行为；举止) and may not 13) act as though they are comfortable lecturin g; it doesn’t mean that they have nothing of 14) value to say. And some instructors may have a(n) 15) accent, or may speak softly. Again, while these things may be 16)distracting to the listener, every 17) effort should be made to ignore these physical problems and pay attention to the message.Another area that good listeners can take 18) advantage of is non-verbal communication. Facial expressions, gestures, body posture: all of these add to a lecture. Even something so minor as the instructor pacing back and 19) forth, stopping only to emphasize a point, is important. A good listener will couple what is being said with what isn’t being said (non-verbals) and draw 20) conclusions .三、Translation1. 那位教授很可能在他唯一的学生缺席的情况下对着空空的教室讲了一课。

Reference NotesUnit 3 Leisure ActivitiesReading FocusWhy Harry’s HotInformation Notes1. About the text and the authorThis passage is taken from Newsweek(July 16, 2000) exploring the underlying reasons why the Harry Potter series books make huge success. The passage is largely argumentative, involving the author's personal ideas about the Harry Potter books. It is a model essay in itself. Students are able to learn how to write an argumentative essay on the grounds of a particular phenomenon. The passage has a typically three-part anatomy that is easily recognized in an argumentative essay. It starts with the indisputable fact that the Harry Potter books capture the attention of an amazingly large audience, although they are confronted with challenges by some parents and conservative religious leaders. They disapprove of the Harry Potter books because they think that these books advocate witchcraft. Then the author makes his own comments on the Harry Potter books, including their merits and demerits. Finally, the author arrives at a conclusion that there is every reason to say that Harry Potter possesses all the earmarks of a classic.Malcolm Jones writes about books, music, and photography for The Daily Beast and Newsweek, where he has written about subjects ranging from A. Lincoln to R. Crumb. He is the author of a memoir, Little Boy Blues, and collaborated with the songwriter and composer Van Dyke Parks and the illustrator Barry Moser on Jump!,a retelling of Brer Rabbit stories.2. About J.K. Rowling Harry and her Potter SeriesJoanne "Jo" Murray, OBE(1965—), who writes under the pen name J. K.Rowling, is a British author best known as the creator of the Harry Potter fantasy series, the idea for which was conceived while on a train trip from Manchester to London in 1990. The Potter books have gained worldwide attention, won multiple awards, and sold more than 400 million copies.,Aside from writing the Potter novels, Rowling is perhaps equally famous for her "rags to riches" life story, in which she progressed from living on welfare to multi-millionaire status within five years. The 2008 Sunday Times Rich List estimated Rowling's fortune at￡560 million ($798 million), ranking her as the 12th richest woman in Britain. Forbes ranked Rowling as the 48th most powerful celebrity of 2007, and Time magazine named her as a runner-up for its 2007 Personof the Year, noting the social, moral, and political inspiration she has given her fandom. She has become a notable philanthropist, supporting such charities as Comic Relief, One Parent Families, Multiple Sclerosis Society of Great Britain, and the Children's High Level Group.Harry Potter is a series of seven fantasy novels written by British author J. K.Rowling. Since the 1997 release of the first novel Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, which was retitled Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone in the United States, the books have gained immense popularity, critical acclaim and commercial success worldwide. As of June 2008, the book series has sold more than 400 million copies and has been translated into 67 languages, and the last four books have consecutively set records as the fastest-selling books in history. So far, the book series includes seven books, including Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone (1997), Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (1998), Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (1999), Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2000), Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2008), Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (2005), Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (2007).4.

It is one of the best-known stories in American popular culture and has been widely translated. Its initial success led to Baum's writing and having published 13 more Oz books.6. Steven Spielberg(1946—) is an American film director, screenwriter and film producer. In a career of over four decades, Spielberg's films have touched on many themes and genres. Spielberg's early sci-fi and adventure films, sometimes centering on children, were seen as an archetype (原型) of modem Hollywood blockbuster filmmaking. In later years his movies began addressing such issues as the holocaust, slavery, war and terrorism.Spielberg won the Academy Award for Best Director for 1993's Schindler’s List (《辛德勒的名单》) and 1998’s Saving Private Ryan (《拯救大兵瑞恩》）. Three of Spielberg's films, Jaws (《大白鲨》) (1975), E.T. (The Extra-Terrestrial)（《外星人》）(1982), and Jurassic Park（《侏罗纪公园》）(1993), broke box office records,each becoming the highest-grossing film made at the time.7. P. L.

now they are transforming the global energy system.21.The Romans buried the nails probably for the sake ofA.saving them for future use.B.keeping them from rusting.C.letting them grow in value.D.hiding them from the locals.22.The example of early17th century Virginians is used toA.highlight the thriftiness of early American colonists.B.illustrate the high status of blacksmiths in that period.C.contrast the attitudes of different civilisations towards nails.D.show the preciousness of nail-making technology at that time.23.What played the major role in lowing the price of nails after the late1700s?A.Increased productivity.B.Wider use of new energies.C.Fiercer market competition.D.Reduced cost of raw materials.24.It can be learned from Paragraph5that nailsA.have undergone many technological improvements.B.have remained basically all the same since Roman times.C.are less studied than other everyday products.D.are one of the world’s most significant inventions.25.Which of the following best summaries the last two paragraphs?A.Cheap technologies bring about revolutionary change.B.Technological innovation is integral to economic success.C.Technology defines people’s understanding of the world.D.Sophisticated technologies develop from small inventions.Text4The miracle of the Chesapeake Bay lies not in its depths,but in the complexity of its natural construction,the interaction of fresh and saline waters moved by wind,tide and current;the mix of land and water where spots are sometimes dry,sometimes wet.The shallows provide homes for hundreds of species from birds and fish to mammals and worms while storing floodwaters,filtering pollutants from water,and protecting nearby communities from potentially destructivestorm surges.All this was put at great risk late last month,when the U.S.Supreme Court issued a ruling in an Idaho case that provides the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency far less authority to regulate wetlands and waterways.Specifically,a5-4conservative majority decided that wetlands protected by the EPA under its Clean Water Act authority must have a"continuous surface connection"to bodies of water.This narrowing of the regulatory scope(after more than a half-century of differing interpretation of"navigable waters"under Republican and Democratic administrations alike)was a victory for builders,mining operators and other commercial interests often at odds with environmental rules.And it carries "significant repercussions for water quality and flood control throughout the United States,"as even Trump-appointed Justice Brett Kavanaugh observed.In Maryland,the good news is that there are many state laws in place that provide wetlands protections.But that's a very shortsighted view,particularly when it comes to the Chesapeake Bay.The reality is that water,and the pollutants that sooften come with it,don't respect state boundaries.The Chesapeake draws from a 64,000-square-mile watershed that extends into Virginia,Pennsylvania,New York, West Virginia,the District of Columbia and Delaware.Will those jurisdictions extend the same protections now denied under Sackett v.EPA?Perhaps some,but all?That seems unlikely.And so we would call on President Joe Biden and Congress to restore this much-needed EPA authority under the Clean Water Act and protect the nation's wetlands–and with them the safety of our water supply,aquatic species and recreational spaces as well as flood protections.It is too easy,and misleading,to see such court rulings as merely standing up for the rights of land owners when the consequences can be so dire for their neighbors. And it's a reminder that the EPA's involvement in the Chesapeake Bay Program has long been crucial as the means to transcend the influence of deep-pocketed special interests in neighboring states.Pennsylvania farmers,to use one telling example, aren't thinking about next year's blue crab,oyster or rockfishharvest in Maryland when they decide whether to spread animal waste on their Lackawanna County fields,yet the runoff into nearby creeks can have enormous impact downstream.And so we would also call on state lawmakers from Richmond to Albany to consider reviewing their own wetlands protections and see for themselves the enormous stakes involved.We can't offer them a trip to the Chesapeake Bay model. It's been gone since the1980s but perhaps a visit to Blackwater National WildlifeRefuge in Dorchester County where American bald eagles fly over tidal marshes so shallow you could not paddle a boat across them but teaming with aquatic life.It's worth the scenic drive.36.The Chesapeake Bay is described in Paragraph1as.A.a valuable natural environment.B.a controversial conservation area.C.a place with commercial potential.D.a headache for nearby communities.37.The U.S.Supreme Court’s ruling in the Idaho case.A.reinforces water pollution control.B.weakens the EPA’s regulatory power.C.will end conflicts among local residents.D.may face opposition from mining operators.38.How does the author feel about the future of the Chesapeake Bay?A.Worried.B.Puzzled.C.Relieved.D.Encouraged.39.What can be inferred about the EPA’s involvement in the Chesapeake Bay Program?A.It has restored the balance among neighboring jurisdictions.B.It has triggered a radial reform in commercial fishers.C.It has set a fine example of respecting state authorities.D.It has ensured the coordination of protection efforts.40.The author holds that the state lawmakers should.A.be cautious about the influence of land owners.B.attach due importance to wetlands protections.C.recongnize the need to expand wildlife refuges.D.improve the wellbeing of endangered species.Part BDirections:The following paragraphs are given in a wrong order.For questions41–45,you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent text by choosing from the list A–H and filling them into the numbered boxes.Paragraphs A,E,and H have been correctly placed.Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(10points)A.It is clear that the countries of origin have never been compensated for the stolen artifacts.B.It is a flawed line of reasoning to argue against returning artifacts to their countries of origin.C.Museum visitors can still learn as much from artifacts’copies after the originals are returned.D.Reproductions,even if perfectly made,cannot take the place of the authentic objects.E.The real value of artifacts can only be recognized in their countries of origin rather than anywhere else.F.Ways to get artifacts from other countries must be decent and lawful.G.Concern over security is no excuse for refusing to return artifacts to their countries of origin.Part CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(10points)The African savanna elephant,also known as the African bush elephant,is distributed across37African countries.(46)They sometimes travel more than sixty miles to find food or water,and are very good at working out where other elephants are--even when they are out of sight.(47)The researchers are convinced that the elephants always know precisely where they are in relation to all the resources they need,and can therefore take shortcuts,as well as following familiar routes.(48)One possibility was that they merely used their eyes and tried out the plants they found,but that would probably result in a lot of wasted time and energy,not least because their eyesight is actually not very good.(49)The volatile chemicals produced by plants can be carried a long way,and they are very characteristic:Each plant or tree has its own particular odor signature.(50)The experiment showed that elephants may well use smell to identify patches of trees that are good to eat,and secondly to assess the quality of the trees within each patch.Section III WritingPart A51.Directions:Read the following email from an international student and write a reply.Dear Li Ming,I’ve got a class assignment to make an oral report on an ancient Chinese scientist, but I’m not sure how to prepare for it.Can you give me some advice?Thank you for your help.Yours,PaulWrite your answer in about100words on the ANSWER SHEET.Do not use your own name in your email;use“Li Ming”instead.(10points) Part B52.Directions:Write an essay based on the picture and the chart below.In your essay,you should1)describe the picture and the chart briefly,2)interpret the implied meaning,and3)give your comments.Write your answer in160–200words on the ANSWER SHEET.(20points)。

研究生期末考试英语资料1~3听力原文Unit 1 Part III African-Americans Still Lag behind WhitesAs the U.S. economy struggles to emerge from a long recession, some analysts say the recovery is not being felt in the African-American community. That’s why one civil rights organization says it is “declaring a war” on black unemployment with a plan to spur job creation.“Every war needs a battle plan, and our battle plan is the National Urban League’s 12-point jobs plan; jobs rebuild America, putting urban America back t o work.” Marc Morial is President of the National Urban League.At a town hall meeting in Washington, his organization released its annual report on the state of black America. It paints a bleak picture for urban and minority communities entangled in economic uncertainty. The study measures the relative status between blacks and whites, based on five areas—economics, education, health, social justice and participation in civic activities.Valerie Rawlston Wilson worked on the report. “There are major area s of inequality in this country between black Americans and white Americans. The areas where we see the greatest disparities, of course, are in economics. That includes things like unemployment.”The U.S. jobless rate for whites is falling. The latest U.S. Labor Department figures put it at 7.9 percent. But the same report says the unemployment rate for blacks rose in March to 15.5 percent. The unemployment rate for black teenagers is 50 percent—more than double the national average. Morial is calling on President BarackObama and lawmakers to fund targeted job creation programs in more than 400 communities.“We need a focused strategy on those communities where unemployment is higher, where poverty is higher. The bigger the headache, the bigger the pill. That means, the higher the unemployment rate, the bigger dose of medicine needed to help those communities get beyond unemployment and get back to economic growth.”The Urban League says another major factor in the economic gap between black and white Americans is the lack of college degrees among many blacks. The report says college enrollment among African-American high school graduates continues to fall, with black students less likely to enroll, compared to whites.Chatman Young, an accounting student at Howard University in Washington, has landed a job at a bank after he graduates. He said without a good education, it will be difficult for young African-Americans to find a good job.The National Urban League report makes several recommendations to Congress, including providing funding for a summer-youth-jobs program and creating 100 urban job training schools— to prepare young African-Americans for careers in areas such as technology and healthcare.Unit 2 Part II Rethink the Role of the CityBig cities are vibrant hubs for culture and industry, or dirty, congested, crime-ridden warrens. As the world population passes seven billion, economists, environmentalists and social scientists are rethinking the role of the city in global society.Economist Edward Glaeser believes cities are the best places to live. “Cities are so fascinating because they play to mankind’s greatest gift, which is our ability to learn from other people.”Since ancient times, he says, cities have attracted smart people and enabled them to work collaboratively to advance society. But it wasn’t always a smooth road.“In the 1970s, it looked as if globalization, new technologies and the death of distance was making our older cities obsolete. After all, the garment industry was fleeing New York. It looked like history itself was telling New York City to drop dead.”Over the past three decades many cities have been revitalized, not just despite globalization and new technologies, but, as Glaeser explains, because of them.“What these new forces have done is they’ve increased the returns to new ideas, to being smart. Because now if you’ve got a new idea, you can manufacture it on the other side of the planet. You can take advantage of some new market opportunity in India or Indonesia or Sub-Saharan Africa. These trends have also made cities more important because cities are at their heart today, engines of innovations, forgers of human capital.”In a new book Triumph of the City, Glaeser takes readers on a world tour of urban success stories from Boston and London, to Tokyo, Bangalore and Kinshasa. He explains how cities are places of pleasure andproduction. Restaurants, supermarkets, theaters and museums create job opportunities and vibrant economies.“If you look across the world, the countries where more than half of the people live in urban areas are more than four times richer, on average, than the countries where less than half of the people live in urban areas.”Even the pockets of poverty that are part of the modern urban landscape, Glaeser says, are signs of the power of cities.“Cities don’t make people poor, they attract poor people, and they attract poor people by delivering a path out of poverty and to prosperity, a chance to partner with people who have different skills, access to world markets, access to capital that enables poor people, some of them, not all of them, to actually find a way forward.”Concentrating population in a city, Glaeser says, is better for the environment.“There is significantly less carbon usage in c ities. There are two reasons for that, one of which is less driving. They are more likely to take public transportation. And when they drive, they drive shorter distances. And the second is that people in the cities, they occupy smaller homes than people l iving in rural areas.”To multiply that effect, the economist would like to see even more people move to cities, where towering skyscrapers would provide energy-efficient, affordable housing.“Building up is an option to avoid building out.”21st century cities are being reshaped as energy, the environment and the economy become more vital considerations in urban planning.Unit 3 Part I WordmasterAA: I’m Avi Arditti with Rosanne Skirble, and this week on Wordmaster: words that express emotion.RS: Suppose someone gave you two minutes to write down as many different emotions as you could think of—for example: happy, sad, angry. You’re also told to rate each emotion as “unpleasant,” “neutral” or “pleasant.” What would come to mind?AA: That’s what groups o f English speakers in Chicago, and Spanish speakers in Mexico City, had to do for a study led by Robert Schrauf, a linguistics professor at Penn State University.ROBERT SCHRAUF: So that data was available to me, and I began to analyze it one day and found this rather curious difference. And that was that about 50 percent of the emotion words that people mentioned were negative, and about 30 percent positive and 20 percent neutral. And those proportions were consistent across all of these groups, from young Mexicans to older Mexicans in Mexico City and young to old English speakers in Chicago. For instance, here is the young Anglos’, in order, the first five: happy, sad, angry, excited, afraid. Now what’s curious about that list is, happy is positive. That’s one word. Then there’s sad, angry, afraid—that’s three negative—and excited, which generally comes across to people as a neutral word.RS: What does this tell us, that 50 percent are negative, 30 percent are positive and 20 percent are neutral? What does this tell us about our emotions, or how we express ourselves?ROBERT SCHRAUF: Right, so that’s the curious thing. So you could look at that list and entertain a number of hypotheses. You could say, “Well, you know, human beings just have more negative expe riences than positive ones, and therefore…” Or you might think that people take dour views of things, I don’t know. So what became interesting was how to explain this. And I went back to the literature and found that the theorizing about emotions is as follows: We tend to think that there are positive and negative emotions on a kind of a continuum. But both the behavioral and the neuro-physiological literature suggest that actually there are two channels for processing emotions—one negative and one positive. And what happens is, it seems to me—or the explanation I’m taking from the literature—is that we respond to negative emotions by thinking more carefully, in a more detailed manner, and we respond to positive emotions by thinking more schematically. We tend to process those more facilely. So my response to a happy emotion is to sort of think top-down, to think that things are moving as they should in the world or perhaps a bit better. And that makes sense from an evolutionary perspective. I mean, if there’s danger or threat, then I need to pay a great deal of careful attention to that. If things are going OK, then it’s benign; I can sort of move ahead.RS: I find it very interesting, the comparison across cultures in the studies that you reviewed.ROBERT SC HRAUF: Right, right. So let’s say there are five to seven basic emotions which we’ll find with appropriate emotion words present in all languages and all cultures. I mean, we would have to do an empirical study to find that, but the evidence that we’ve gathered so far tends to suggest that that’s true. What makes cultures unique are all of those non-basic emotions that once you get through joy, anger, fear, sadness—those initial very pan-cultural words andpan-cultural emotions—then there are long lists of emotion words in each language that make rather curious distinctions that are not translatable. So an example in Spanish, for instance, is ‘verguenza,’ which we translate as ‘shame.’ But it’s a far more powerful word than our word shame. Or for instance, i n German, ‘schadenfreude’ is a word that implies a feeling of glee at someone else’s misfortune, and we don’t have an appropriate translation in English.填词第一单元If we’re serious about breaking the cycle of intergenerational（世代相传的）poverty, then many of these women will need some extra help with the basics that those living outside the inner city often take for granted. They need more police and more effective policing in their neighborhoods （社区）, to provide them and their children some semblance（n.类似）of personal security. Theyneed access to community-based（社区化的）health centers that emphasize prevention-including reproductive（生殖的）health care, nutritional（营养的）counseling（n.营养咨询）, and in some cases treatment for substance abuse. They need a radical（a.彻底性的）transformation of the schools their children attend, and access to affordable child care that will allow them to hold a full-time job or pursue（vt.继续；从事）their education.And in many cases they need help learning to be effective parents. By the time many inner-city children reach the school system, they’re already behind-unable to identify basic numbers,colors,or the letters in the alphabet, unaccustomed to sitting still or partipating in a structured environment, and often burdened by undiagnosed health problems. They’re unprepared not because they’re unloved but because their mothers don’t know how to provide what they need. Well-structured government programs-prenatal counseling, access to regular pediatric care, parenting programs, and quality early-childhood-education programs-have a proven ability to help fill the void.第三单元When someone you love dies from a heart attack or cancer, you remember him not in relation to his death but in relation to his life. This is not true of suicide. You go over and over the details（细节）of how he did it, why he did it and what you could have done to prevent it. You keep rewriting the story, trying to get all the answers, or you bury（埋藏）the questions and never fully grieve the loss. But if you’re constantly（时常）rewriting the life of the person who killed himself, you’re not moving ahead with your own life.I didn’t realize that I hadn’t really moved on until I heard a man about my age talk about his father. He described him as a person who was sensitive and cruel, generous and selfish, unable to forgive wrongs in others but desperate to be loved. He talked about his father’s relationship with his mother, and how his "mood" had controlled the temperature of the entire family. As I sat there listening, I could see my father in the very words he was using to describe his own. It didn’t matter that mine was a gynecologist（妇科医生）and his was a blue-collar worker. Neither suicide had anything to do with class or profession. Both men suffered from similar depressions that overwhelmed them after they retired, and went largely untreated at this crucial time of their lives.1~3单元句子翻译翻译:1.因为极端分子可能激起冲突和分裂，为了我们的共同安全，我们应该联合起来。

英语一Text 3Rutkowski is a Polish digital artist who uses classical painting styles to create dreamy fantasy landscapes. He has made illustrations for games such as Sony’s Horizon Forbidden West, Ubisoft’s Anno, Dungeons & Dragons, and Magic: The Gathering. And he’s become a sudden hit in the new world of text-to-image AI generation.His distinctive style is now one of the most commonly used prompts in the new open-source AI art generator Stable Diffusion, which was launched late last month. The tool, along with other popular image-generation AI models, allows anyone tocreate impressive images based on text prompts. For example, type in “Wizard with sword and a glowing orb of magic fire fights a fierce dragon Greg Rutkowski,”and the system will produce something that looks not a million miles away from works in Rutkowski’s style.But these open-source programs are built by scraping images from the Internet, often without permission and proper attribution to artists. As a result, they are raising tricky questions about ethics and copyright. And artists like Rutkowski have had enough.According to the website Lexica, which tracks over 10 million images and prompts generated by Stable Diffusion, Rutkowski’s name has been used as a prompt around 93,000 times. Some of the world’s most famous artists, such as Michelangelo, Pablo Picasso, and Leonardo da Vinci, brought up around 2,000 prompts each or less. Rutkowski’s name also features as a prompt thousands of times in the Discord of another text-to-image generator, Midjourney. Rutkowski was initially surprised but thought it might be a good way to reach new audiences. Then hetried searching for his name to see if a piece he had worked on had been published. The online search brought back work that had his name attached to it but wasn’t his."It’s been just a month. What about in a year?
