She is by far (active)_____ member in our group.Part II Reading Comprehension (40 minutes)Task lOur environment is getting worse and worse with the increase of the world population, which affects the environment in two ways. Firstly, the limited energy resources will be used up much faster. Secondly, the increasing population creates more pollution, another severe problem that needs to be solved. Both problems are long-term ones because actions taken now show their results slowly over many years. They are also urgent because delays in action can lead to great suffering and social problems. The question seems to be difficult to handle for most people. However, a person can be a protector of environment in everyday life if he takes actions to save the environment right now. With the development of technology, cars make transportation easier and quicker than before, but we can’t ignore the disa dvantages brought to us by more and more cars in use. For example, we are consuming gasoline(汽油), which is a non-renewable(无法更新的)resource, and will soon be gone. Moreover, the exhausted gas from cars pollutes our air, and our health is therefore threatened by air pollution, which has a big potential effect on our daily life.So we can consider walking, taking buses, carpooling(合用汽车), instead of driving cars alone. This seems to be a very slow process that can’t be so effective if it’s taken by a single person. But when more and more people become aware of the importance and positively take it as their personal responsibilities. The condition of the air will be improved to a great extent.36. According to the writer, the main problem to our environment today is _____.A) the increase of populationB)the limited energy resourcesC)the more serious air pollutionD)the development of technology37.From the passage, we can know that ______.A) effective measures can be taken mainly by the governmentB) taking measures now can soon improve the environmentC) immediate measures can cause great suffering and social problemsD) every single person’s action has some effect on environment protection38. The author’s main purpose in writing this passage is most probably to _____.A) complain about people’s slow actions to protect the environmentB) advise people to take actions to protect the environmentC) show himself to be an active environment protectorD) point out the bad effects of technologies in protecting environment39.The author believes that carpooling _____.A) can give help to those without carsB) can save people money and timeC) can save energy resources and reduce air pollutionD) can promote friendship among drivers40. The passage is mainly about _____.A) energy resources saving B) environment protectionC) population control D) air pollutionTask 2First aid (急救)is the care given to the injured or sick as soon as possible after an accident or illness. It is this immediate care and attention before the arrival of the ambulance (急救车)that sometimes means the difference between life and death, or a full or partial recovery.First aid has limitations, as not everybody is a doctor or expert, but it is a key element of the total medical system.The principle to be adopted in first aid is immediate action. By-standers (旁观者)or relatives not knowing what to do, or being too fearful to try, have unwisely contributed to unnecessary deaths and worse injuries.It is important that any action taken by the first aid provider is started as quickly as possible. Quick action is necessary to save life and parts of the body. One who is not breathing effectively, or is bleeding (流血)heavily, requires immediate help. If quick effective first aid is provided, then they have a much better chance of a good recovery.But it should be remembered that any action taken is to be the most careful, and fright (恐惧)by the first aid provider and by-standers will not be good to the whole thing. Try to remain calm and think your actions through. A calm and controlled first aider will give everyone confidence that the event is being handled efficiently and effectively.41.The writer seems to sugges t that if you don’t know much about first aid, you shouldA) call for help from professionals B) still try to helpC) stand by and not try to help D) learn it from a doctor42. According to the passage, some injured or sick people died as a result of ____ .A)other people’s hesitation to offer first aid B) unprofessional first aidC) unnecessary first aid D) unwise suggestions by by-standers43. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A)One should not apply first aid to the injured without knowing the case of the accident.B)It is easy to carry out first aid if one has the necessary facilities.C)First aid is an important part of the whole treatment.D)First aid may not be effective before a doctor or expert comes.44.The most important thing in providing first aid is to _____.A) call for an ambulance B) prevent bleedingC)know what to do D)act quickly45. While offering first aid, the helper should _____.A) be self-controlled B)have others to assist himC)have confidence in the sick person D)get rid of the by-standersTask3Before making a speech, we often need to make brief speaking notes. You can put them oncards no smaller than 150 x 100mm. Write in large and bold letters that you can see at a glance, using a series of brief headings to develop the information in sufficient detail. The amount of information you include in your notes will depend on the complexity (复杂性) of the subject, your familiarity with it, and your previous speaking experience. Here are some steps for you to follow when preparing brief speaking notes.First, you should write a summary, or an outline, of the project to be reported and the results achieved. Then an introduction follows. This includes background information and purpose of the project. Next comes discussion. In this part, what has been done, how it has been done and the results achieved should be dealt with. At the fourth step, you have two choices: one is the conclusion if the project is completed. The other is the future plan if the project is still in progress. At last, a summary should be prepared. In this part, you should give a brief summing-up, plus a question-and-answer period.Speaking Notes PreparationWords to be written:in 46 lettersMeans of developing information: using a number of 47______Steps of making speaking notes:1)work out an outline2)write 483) deal with the subject4)draw 49 at the end of the project, or make a 50 if the project is not finished5)give a summaryTask 4A ......................................................

In an abstract you (1) make an outline of the problem and the purpose of your investigation, (2)mention very briefly how you conducted the investigation or tests, (3) describe your main findings, and (4)make the conclusions. All this must be done in as few words as possible: ideally, your abstract will be about 125 words long and never more than 250 words.From the abstract, readers must be able to decide whether the information you provide in the scientific paper or report is particularly interesting to them and whether they should read further. Because a scientific paper is written for readers who generally are familiar with your technical or scientific discipline (学科), you may use technical terminology (术语)in the abstract. The abstract should be written last, when the whole paper has been written, so that you can make an abstract of the brief details you need from what you have already written.56. How will you write an abstract? You should write it in as _____ as possible.57. What should be described in the abstract? Our___________.58. What are the readers likely to do if they find the abstract interesting? The readers are likely to _____.59. Why can you use technical terminology in the abstract?Because your readers are usually _____ your scientific discipline.60. When should you write the abstract? After you have finished _____.Part IV Translation (25 minutes)61.Computer data bases and electronic mail systems have been around since the late 1970s.A)计算机数据库和电子邮件自20世纪70年代末,便无处不在了。

There are 5 tasks for you to fulfill. You should read the reading materials carefully and do the tasks as you are instructed. Task 1Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36to 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. You should make the correct choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.In giving a business presentation, many speakers think that if their idea is strong, their audience will get it readily. They feel discouraged when the audience is unable to understand their presentations. That happens alot especially when technical experts are invited to make a product presentation to a group of users.What can we do to make a business presentation easier to understand? In my view, good presentations have always been simple and visual. In an effective business presentation, the fewer the points, the better the message gets passed on. You focus on the depth of coverage instead of thewidth (广度 ) of coverage. Additionally, you make your ideas visual and relevant, so the message is understood better and remembered longer. Great business presenters relate their ideas and concepts to their audience by using simple, powerful diagrams instead of relying on text-based slides. In fact, drawing diagrams forces a presenter to make the idea clear even at the preparation stage. Itis impossible to draw a diagram when you are not clear about an idea. When your idea is clear, it is easier to transfer it. Most audiences understand a diagram faster and remember it longer. This possibly explains why most of the memorable presentations have been visual in nature.36.Many speakers believe that the stronger their idea,.A)the more powerful their speech will beB)the more meaningful their speech will beC)the more easily the audience will understand itD)the harder the audience will find it to follow37.Why are you advised to give fewer points in your presentation?A)To pass on the messages better.C) To allow audience to take notes.B)To avoid wasting too much time.D) To leave more time for questions.38.The speaker can help the audience remember the message longer by.A) displaying text-based slides C) focusing on the width of coverageB) avoiding long technical terms D) using simple and powerful diagrams39.The underlined word“ transfer” in this passage most probably means.A) create B) pass on C) take off D) describe40.This passage is mainly about.A)how to make an effective business presentationB)how to present strong ideas in a presentationC)how to focus on the depth of coverageD)how to prepare a powerful diagramTask 2Directions: This task is the same as Task 1. The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.Blue Jeans Company was established in October 2012 and operates as a partnership (合伙企业)between Elena Horowitz and James Foster.

Having taken GE with a market value of about $12 billion, Jack Welch turned it into one of thelargest and most admired companies in the world, with a market value of about $500 billion, when he stepped down as its CEO 20 years later, in .As Jack Welch wrote in a letter to shareholders: “In the old culture, managers got their power from secret knowledge: profit margins, market share, and all that... In the new economy, the role of the leader is to express a vision, and put it into practice. That calls for open, caring relations with every employee, and face-to-face communication. People who can’t convincingly (有说服力) express a vision won’t be successful. But those who can will become even more open——because success builds up self-confidence.”Welch believed that great business leaders have to:· possess large amounts of energy, and· know how to use that energy to motivate others. Welch moves from meeting to meeting, conveying that message—and many more others as well, some of which have become his trademarks:· Business is simple.· Don’t make it complicated.· Face reality.· Don’t be afraid of change.· Use the brains of your workers.36.

The 5 questions or unfinished statements are numbered 41 to 45.From: Linda SmithTo: Clarice RyanSubject: Report on Employees’ Use of TimeClarice, I agree that waste of work time is a serious issue. The Human Resources Department recently surveyed the employees. They are wasting nearly two hours per day.Here are my ideas to reduce this waste. First we need to agree on what are the Most important behaviors to stop. For example, look at activity No.1 in the table below. Many people are doing this; however, it is the most difficult to stop. I recommend that we focus on activities No. 2, 4, and 5.Making phone calls shows the largest difference between men and women. Women do this much more than men. We should ask all employees to limit these calls. They should return non-urgent messages at their lunch break.For No. 4, we should focus on the younger age group. We will tell them that we are going to check their work accounts for personal messages. For No. 5, we can ask managers to watch this more carefully. Perhaps activity No. 3 should continue. This allows employees to know each other and it can increase their motivation. The managers will know if someone is spending too much time talking and not enough time working.Are you available tomorrow? I’d like to meet with you to discuss our next step.41. What problem does the writer find from the survey by the Human Resources Department?A. Working conditions are to be improved.B. Some employees need re-training.C. Employees lack motivation.D.

Milk, some vegetables, meat, chicken, fish, cheese, grains and nuts are somefoods rich in proteins.A good diet will contain a variety of foods so that the body contains all the minerals it needs for good health.Vitamins are necessary for the proper working of the body.
