After all, he works for a large auto-insurance company. It won‘t hurt to leave the key in the truck this once, he thought, as he fille d his gas tank at a self-service gas station. But moments later, as he was paying the money, he saw the truck being driven away.In 1987, 1.6 million motor vehicles were stolen in the United States? One every 20 seconds. If current trends continue, experts predict annual vehicle thefts could exceed two million by the end of the decade.Vehicle theft is a common phenomenon, which has a direct impact on over four million victims a year. The cost is astonishing.Many police officials blame professional thieves for the high volume of the thefts. It is amajor money-maker for organized crime. Typically, stolen cars are taken to pieces and the parts sold to individuals. But as many as 200000 cars are smuggled out of the country every year. Most go to Latin America, the Middle East and Europe.Only about 15 percent car thefts result in an arrest, because few police departments routinely conduct in depth auto-investigations. When thieves are arrested, judges will often sentence them to probation, not immediately put them in prison because the prisons are overcrowded with violent criminals.One exception is a Michigan program that assigns 92 police officers to work full-time on the state‘s 65000 car theft cases a year. Since 1986, when the effort began,the state‘s auto-theft rate has fallen from second in the nation to ninth.How can you protect your car? If you live in a high-theft area or drive an expensive model, consider a security system. It may cost anywhere from $25 to$1,000. Some systems engage automatically? Simply removing the key disables the fuel pump and the starter. When cars are equipped with such systems, thefts may drop by one-third. In some states, you may be able to use a device that transmits radio signals, allowing stolen cars to be tracked by police.1. What does the author think Joe Templer should be blamed for?A. He should have equipped his car with a security system.B. He should not have his car refilled at the gas station.C. He should not have been so sure of himself.D. He should have shut down the engine of his car.2. What is NOT a reason for the increase of car theft as mentioned in the passage?A. Police don‘t give enough attention to car theft cases.B. More people park their cars and left the keys inside.C. Measures and laws against car thieves are not effective enough.D. Car theft brings car thieves much money.3. It is obvious that the Michigan program _____ .A. has no effect on the overall picture of the whole state.B. involves much work but proves to be quite effective.C. involves the construction of larger prisonsD. involves the development of a new security system4. What type(s) of security system can help the police find a stole car back?A. The device that sends out radio signalsB. The device that disables the fuel pump.C. The device that disables the starter.D. All of the above.Passage 2After a three-year survey of the social and behavioral sciences, a committee of the NRC has concluded that these sciences are losing out in the race for federal science funds. Between 1972 and 1978, federal support for the social and behavioral sciences fell 25 percent, while support for other areas of science rose 36 percent.Psychological, social and cultural studies pertaining to virtually everything that people treat as a problem in our civilization, the committee writes, play a large role. Paradoxically, one would think these would be times when social science research would be riding high. Yet eve though governments are more that alarmed about a variety of social problems, they are inclined to deal with them by trial and (often) error. The abuse of drugs is a widespread concern, but governments seem to with the qualifications of teachers and their salaries.If we lack an adequate understanding of drug abuse and educational processes, are we flying blind attempting to deal with these behaviors? What domains of your life could benefit from social and behavioral science research? For instance, are we concerned about crime? Consider that recent sociological research reveals that nearly half of all urban-dwelling American males can expect to be arrested for some non-traffic offense during their lives. However, a very small group of career predators are responsible for a grossly disproportionate share of all crimes committed. What does this insight suggest to you about American criminal Justice and prison policies. Sociological work also shows that most criminals halt their careers by age 25 to 30. Does this finding have policy implication? If a 29-year-old-burglar whose criminal career is nearly over is imprisoned for ten years, may many years of that imprisonment be wasted on expensive and unnecessary confinement?5. According to the author, social and behavioral sciences are losing federal financial support chiefly because some people _____ .A. don‘t see the seriousness of the present situationB. don‘t quite see the use for these sciencesC. only consider natural sciences as true sciencesD. are unable to solve social problems with them6. In the second paragraph, the author gives two examples of social problems to show that _____ .A. social problems are on the rise currentlyB. the government does not try hard to solve such problemsC. some attacks on such problems are often blindD. such problems often go unsolved7. In the third paragraph, the author uses some findings to illustrate _____ .A. some achievements made in social and behavioral sciencesB. the demand for social and behavioral studiesC. the current trend in the increase of crimesD. the inefficiency of criminal justice and prison policies8. In the last sentence of the passage, the word confinement is closest in meaning to the word_____ .A. fundsB. solutionC. researchD. imprisonmentPassage 3Writing to learn makes it possible to show learning in writing. Much of the writing you will do in college and at work will ask you to demonstrate what you have learned. The success of that demonstration will depend on, among other things, revising your writing to show your knowledge to best advantage. When you have begun to see what you want to say (frequently this becomes clear at the very end of a first draft), it is time to start thinking about how to present your ideas to others. It is time to start thinking about revising.Revising can be described as the most important (and frequently most neglecteD. part of writing. Novelists Doris Lessing has said that many novels miss greatness because authors are unwilling or unable to revise them. James Michener explains the importance of revision this way: I have never thought of myself as a good writer. Anyone who wants reassurance of that should read one of my first drafts. But I‘m one of the world‘s great revisers.Revising takes many forms. It means thinking about the audience for your writing. Who will read your work and why? It also means developing an overall plan for the writing that will make your ideas clear. Often the organization of a first draft will reflect your process of discovery, but that may not be the best way to present your ideas to someone else. Revising also gives attention to the style of language, to the structure of a paragraph, and to the shape of sentences and other forms that show learning to its best advantage.Writing to learn and writing to show learning are never, of course, entirely separate processes. Writers frequently consider issues of demonstrating learning while writing to learn, and writing to show learning often leads to new understandings. In drafting, for example, you may start thinking about what an audience will need to know in order to understand your point and change a word or a phrase to make your meaning clearer. But understanding the differences between writing to learn and writing to show learning is central to seeing writing as a process.9. The author thinks that revising starts when _____ .A. you want to show what you knowB. you think about your audienceC. you have discovered your ideaD. you have developed an overall writing plan10. The chief purpose in revising your writing is for you to _____ .A. learn in the course of writingB. add new ideas to your writingC. show your learning to its best advantageD. use an appropriate style of language11. What Doris Lessing said helps to support the idea that _____ .A. he is one of the wo rld‘s great revisersB. he is not a good writerC. revising is very importantD. many writers are unwilling to revise their works12. The passage is mainly about _____ .A. the importance of revisingB. the importance of writingC. how to compose good writingD. how to revise your writingPassage 4That an ecological crisis confronts humankind is now so central to our thinking that the notion that human beings adapt to their natural environment seems obvious. But ecological interpretations of world history are surprisingly recent. Sociologists, in attempting to classify societies, have looked increasingly to a people‘s relationship with their natural environment and, provide food, clothing, and shelter. Human beings meet these needs in a wide variety of environments, including deserts, rain forests, grasslands, and so on. Such environments are part of ecosystem, a complex web of interdependencies among organisms, communities of organisms, and the natural habitat. Some societal variation derives from the different demands made by different ecosystems. Customs and ways of life that would be adaptive in one ecosystem would be maladaptive in another.We confront a habitat and evolve a mode of existence not so much as lone individuals, but cooperatively as larger social units. Social organization and technology are our chief adaptive mechanisms. Social organization develops, as we create stable, ordered relationships and become infused with common cultural traits. Much depends on whether or not our values, norms, beliefs and institutions favor or foreclose new avenues of adaptation. Likewise, technology—the application of knowledge for practical weds—allows us to harness and change aspects of our environment. In its broadest sense, technology entails the practical arts and skills of human society. As technology has become more advanced, we have gained access to greater amounts of non-human energy (animal, water, fossil fuel, solar, and so on). In turn, new sources of energy have allowed our cultures to expand and change. Other changes follow as well.13. The author points out that differences in people‘s ways of life come from _____ .A. their cultural traditionsB. their adaptations to the environmentC. their demands for natural resourcesD. their notions about the environment14. Different ways of life exist among different peoples because of _____ .A. their adaptive valueB. their distinctive valueC. lack of better technologyD. mutual isolation15. Social organizations and technology develop as a result o f people‘s _____ .A. adaptation to the environmentB. attempt to change natureC. efforts to create peaceful societiesD. desire to create bigger societies16. The ultimate goal in developing technology is for people to _____ .A. get practical skills and artsB. obtain greater amounts of energyC. effect social changesD. create new culturesPassage 5The subject of my study is women who are initiating social change in a small region in Texas. The women are Mexican Americans who are, or were, migrant agricultural workers. There is more than one kind of innovation at work in the region, of course, but I have chosen to focus on three related patterns of family behavior.The pattern I life style represents how migrant farm workers of all nationalities lived in the past and how many continue to live. I treat this pattern as a baseline with which to compare the changes represented by pattern II and III. Families in pattern I work and travel in extended kin units, with the eldest male occupying the position of authority. Families are large eight or none children are not unusual and all members are economic contributors in this strategy of family migration. Families in pattern II manifest some differences in behavior while still maintaining aspects of pattern I. They continue to migrate but on a reduced scale, often modifying their schedules of migration to allow children to finish the school year. Parents in this pattern often find temporary local jobs as checkers to make up for lost farming income. Pattern II families usually have fewer children than do pattern I families.The greatest amount of change from pattern I, however, is in pattern III families, who no longer migrate at all. Both parents work full time in the area and have an average of three children. Children attend school for the entire year. In pattern III, the women in particular create new roles for themselves for which no local models exist. They no only work full time but may, in addition, return to school. They also assume a greater responsibility in family decisions than do women in the other patterns. Although these women are in the minority among residents of the region, they serve as role models for others, causing moderate changes to spread in their communities.Now opportunities have continued to be determined by pre-existing values. When federal jobs became available in the region, most involved working under the direction of female professionals such as teachers or nurses. Such positions were unaccepted to many men in the areabecause they were not accustomed to being subordinate to women. Women therefore took the jobs, at first, because the income was desperately needed. But some of the women decided to stay at their jobs, at first, after the family‘s distress was over. These w omen enjoyed their work, its responsibility, and the companionship of fellow women workers. The steady, relatively high income allowed their families to stop migrating. And, as the benefits to these women became increasingly apparent, they and their families became even more willing to consider changes in their lives that they would not have considered before.17. Which of the following titles best reflects the main focus of the passage?A. A Survey of Three Mexican-American Families at Work in Texas.B. Innovative Career Women: Effects on Family Unity.C. Changes in the Life-styles of Migrant Mexican-American Families.D. Farming of Family: The Unavoidable Choice for Migrant Farm Workers.18. All of the following statements about pattern II children express differences EXCEPT _____ .A. they migrate for part of each yearB. they spend less time contributing to family incomeC. they spend more months on schoolD. their parents sometimes work at jobs other than farming19. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true of women in pattern III families?A. They earn a reliable and comparatively high income.B. They continue to work solely to meet the urgent needs of their family.C. They enjoy the fellowship involved in working with other womenD. They serve as models of behavior for others in the region.20. The author‘s attitude towards the three patterns of behavior mentioned in the passage is best described as one of _____ .A. great admirationB. unbiased objectivityC. dissatisfactionD. indifferencePassage 6If sustainable competitive advantage depends on work force skills, American firms have a problem. Human resource management is not traditionally seen as central to the competitive survival of the firm in the United States. Skill acquisition is considered as an individual responsibility. Labor is simply another factor of production to be hired-rented at the lowest possible cost-much as one buys raw materials or equipment.The lack of importance attached to human resource management can be seen in the corporation hierarchy. In an American firm the chief financial officer is almost always second incommand. The post of head of human resource managements is usually a specialized job, off at the edge of the corporate hierarchy. The executive who holds it is never consulted on major strategic decisions and has no chance to move up to Chief Executive Officer (CEO).By way of contrast, in Japan the head of human resource management is central-usually the second most important executive, after the CEO, in the firm‘s hierarchy.While American firms often talk about the vast amounts spent on training their work forces, in fact they invest less in the skill of their employees than do the Japanese or German firms. The money they do invest is also more highly concentrated on professional and managerial employees. And the limited investments that are made in training workers are also much more narrowly focused on the specific skills necessary to do the next job rather than on the basic background skills that make it possible to absorb new technologies.As a result, problems emerge when new breakthrough technologies arrive. If American workers, for example, take much longer to learn how to operate new flexible manufacturing stations than workers in Germany(as they do),the effective cost of those stations is lower in Germany than it is in the United Stated. More time is required before equipment is up and running at capacity, and the need for extensive retraining generates costs and creates bottlenecks that limit the speed with which new equipment can be employed. The result is a slower pace of technological change. And in the end the skills of the bottom half of the population affect the wages of the top half. If the bottom half can‘t effectively staff the processes that have to be operated, the management and professional jobs that go with these processes will disappear.21. Which of the following applies to the management of human resources in American companies?A. They hire people at the lowest cost regardless of their skills.B. They see the gaining of skills as their employees own business.C. They attach more importance to workers than to equipment.D. They only hire skilled workers because of keen competition.22. What is the position of the head of human resource management in an American firm?A. He is one of the most important executives in the firm.B. His post is likely to disappear when new technologies are introduced.C. He is directly under the chief financial executive.D. He has no authority in making important decisions in the firm.23. The money most American firms spend in training mainly goes to----.A. workers who can operate new equipmentB. technological and managerial staffC. workers who lack basic background skillsD. top executives.24. What is the main idea of the passage?A. American firms are different from Japanese and German firms in human resource management.B. Extensive retraining is indispensable to effective human resource management.C. The head of human resource management must be in the central position in a firm‘s hierarchy.D. The human resource management strategies of American firms affect their competitive capacity.Passage 7Internet is a vast network of computers that connects many of the world‘s businesses, institutions, and individuals. The Internet, which means interconnected network of networks, links tens of thousands of smaller computer networks. These networks transmit huge amounts of information in the form of words, images, and sounds.The Internet was information on virtually every topic. Network users can search through sources ranging from vast databases to small electronic ―bulletin boards ,‖where users form discussion groups around common interests. Much of the Internet‘s traffic consists of messages sent from one computer user to another. These messages are called electronic mail or email. Internet users have electronic addresses that allow them to send and receive email. Other uses of the network include obtaining news, joining electronic debates, and playing electronic games. One feature of the Internet, known as the World Wide Web, provides graphics, audio, and video to enhance the information in its documents. These documents cover a vast number of topics.People usually access the Internet with a device called a modem. Modems connect computers to the network through telephone lines. Much of the Internet operates through worldwide telephone networks of fiber-optic cables. These cables contain hair-thin strands of glass that carry data as pulses of light. They can transmit thousands of times more data than local phone lines, most of which consist of copper wires.The history of the Internet began in the 1960s.At that time, the Advanced Research Projects Agency (ARPA. of the United States Department of Defense developed a network of computers called ARPA net. Originally, ARPA net connected only military and government computer systems. Its purpose was to make these systems secure in the event of a disaster or was. Soon after the creation of ARPA net, universities and other institutions developed their own computer networks. These networks eventually were merged with ARPA net to form the Internet. By the 1990s,anyone with a computer, modem, and Internet software could link up to the Internet.In the future, the Internet will probably grow more sophisticated as computer technology becomes more powerful. Many experts believe the Internet may become part of a larger network called the information superhighway. This network, still under development, would link computers with telephone companies, cable television stations, and other communication systems. People could bank, shop, watch TV, and perform many other activities through the network.25 .This passage is about the------of the Internet.A future.B general introductionC use.D history.26 .Which of the following statements about the Internet is true?A. ARPA was the first net used by American universities and institutions.B. The history of the Internet can be traced back to fifty years ago.C. The purpose of the Internet is to protect the world in the event of war.D. ARPA net formed the foundation of the Internet nowadays...。

It is about dream and what would happen if a dream has no chance of being realized. More specifically, the poem is about the dream of the American blacks for equality, freedom, and other human rights. The poet encourages the blacks to hold their dreams, for it is what gives meaning and generates hope to a life of misery and suffering. The poem also sounds a warning: if nothing is done to help the blacks, and if the blacks cannot fulfill their dream, then it would be “fire”next time. Their dream is going to “explode,”destroying everything in the American society. The poem is in the convention of free verse. It contains a number of questions, which is very unique. And simile is the most conspicuous figure of speech in it.)LamentListen, children:Your father is dead.From his old coatsI'll make you little jackets;I'll make you little trousersFrom his old pants.There'll be in his pocketsThings he used to put there,Keys and penniesCovered with tobacco;Dan shall have the penniesTo save in his bank;Anne shall have the keysTo make a pretty noise with.Life must go on,And the dead be forgotten;Life must go on,Though good men die;Anne, eat your breakfast;Dan, take your medicine;Life must go on;I forget just why.(This poem is a lament over the death of the father, the bread-winner of the family. As can be seen from the poem, the family has been poverty-stricken in the past years. And the untimely death of the father has plunged it into deeper misery. The mother, though grief-stricken, is a strong-minded woman. She assumes the whole responsibility of looking after the children. Life must go on, though it is difficult. The poem is written in the tradition of free verse. Parallelism is the major figure of speech.)。

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.Passage OneAdam Smith, writing in the 1770s, was the first person to see the importance of the division of labor and to explain part of its advantages. He gives as an example the process by which pins were made in England.“One man draws out the wire, another strengthens it, a third cuts it, a fourth points it, a fifth grinds it at the top to prepare it to receive the head. To make the head requires two or three different operations. To put it on is a separate operation, to polish the pins is another.It is even a trade by itself to put them into the paper. And the important business of making pins is, in this manner, divided into about eighteen operations, which in some factories are all performed by different people, though in others the same man will sometimes perform two or three of them. Ten men, Smith said, in this way, turned out twelve pounds of pins a day or about 4,800 pins apiece. But if all of them had worked separately and independently without division of labour, they certainly could not each of them have made twenty pins in a day and perhaps not even one.There can be no doubt that division of labour, provided that it is not taken too far, is an efficient way of organizing work. Fewer people can make more pins. Adam Smith saw this but he also took it for granted that division of labour is in itself responsible for economic growth and development and that it accounts for the difference between expanding economies and those that stand still. But division of labour adds nothing new; it only enables people to produce more f what they already have.1. According to the passage, Adam Smith was the first person to ________.A. take advantage of the division of labourB. introduce the division of labour into EnglandC. understand the effects of the division of labourD. explain the causes of the division of labour2. Adam Smith saw that the division of labour _________.A. enabled each worker to make pins more quickly and more cheaplyB. increased the possible output per workerC. increased the number of people employed in factoriesD. improved the quality of pins produced3. According to Adam Smith‟s example, the number of operations required in making pins is about _________.A. fiveB. eightC. twelveD. eighteen4. Adam Smith mentioned the number 4,800 in order to __________.A. show the advantages of the division of labourB. show the advantages of the old craft systemC. emphasize how powerful the individual worker wasD. emphasize the importance of increased production5. According to the writer, Adam Smith‟s mistake was in believing that division of labour________.A. was an efficient way of organizing workB. was an important development in methods of productionC. always led to economic developmentD. increased the production of existing goodsPassage TwoThe Red Cross is an international organization which cares for people who are in need of help. A man in a Paris hospital who needs blood, a woman in Mexico who was injured in an earthquake, and family in India that lost their home in a storm may all be aided by the Red Cross.The Red Cross exists in almost every country around the globe. The world Red Cross organizations are sometimes called the Red Crescent, the Red Mogen David, the Sun, and the Red Lion. All of these agencies share a common goal of trying to help people in need.The idea of forming an organization to help the sick and wounded during a war started with Jean Henri Dunant. In 1859, he observed how people were suffering on a battlefield in Italy. He wanted to help all the wounded people regardless of which side they were fighting for. The most important result of his work was an international treaty called the Geneva Convention. It protects prisoners of war, the sick and wounded, and other citizens during a war.The American Red Cross was set up by Clara Barton in 1881. Today the Red Cross in the United States provides a number of services for the public, such as helping people in need, teaching first aid and providing blood.6. Which of the following could best replace the title for this selection?A. People in Need of Help.B. Safety and Protection.C. The International Red Cross.D. Forming an organization to Help People.7. The word “aided” in the first paragraph means ___________.A. neededB. helpedC. caughtD. protec ted8. The author really tries to make the reader see that this organization ____________.A. costs very little moneyB. works in many nationsC. teaches first aid if necessaryD. is called the Sun9. We may drew a conclusion that ___________ during a war.A. the Red Cross only protects the woundedB. the Red Cross only helps prisoners of warC. the Red Cross only helps citizensD. the Red Cross helps all the people in need no matter which side they are fighting for10. The person who started the idea of this organization was ____________.A. CrossB. DunantC. BartonD. Mogen DavidPassage ThreeFootball is, I believe, the most popular game in England: one has only to go to one of the important matches to see this. Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side or the other.To a stranger one of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams, he has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches. He will tell you whom he expects will win such and such a match and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age.Most schools in England take football seriously much more seriously than nearly allEuropean schools, where lessons are all important, and games are left for the children themselves. In England it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boy‟s mind with facts in the character is by means of games, especially team games, instead of working for himself alone. The school therefore plans games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game, it is good both for the body and the mind. That is why it is very school‟s game in England.11. At football matches, people often _______ one team or the other by shouting.A. watchB. win overC. laugh atD. support12. In England school boys seem ________ football games.A. to know a great deal aboutB. not to know much aboutC. to know a little aboutD. to know nothing about13. In the sentence “His opinion is as good as that of men three or four times his age”, “that”means ______.A. the matchB. the opinionC. the ageD. the team14. In England, education means ____________.A. filling a boy‟s mind with storiesB. more than teaching of knowledgeC. the teaching of knowledge onlyD. training character by means of football games15. Football games are very popular among _____________.A. all peopleB. adultsC. boys and girlsD. boys onlyPassage FourInsects‟ lives are very short and they have many enemies, but they must survive long enough to breed and perpetuate their kind. The less insect like they look, the better their chance of survival. To look “inedible” by resembling or imitating plants or objects that hold no interest or their enemies is a deception widely practiced by insects. Mammals rarely use this type of camouflage, but many fish and invertebrates do.The stick caterpillar is well named. It is hardly distinguishable from a brown or green twig. This caterpillar is quite common and can be found almost anywhere in North America. It is also called “measuring worm” or “inchworm”. It walks by arching its body, then stretching out and grasping the branch with its front feet, then looping its body again to bring the hind feet forward. When danger threatens, the stick caterpillar stretches its body away from the branch at an angle and remains rigid and still, like a twig, until the danger has passed.Walking sticks, or stick insects, do not have to assume a rigid, twig like pose to find protection; they look like inedible twigs in any position. There are many kinds of walking sticks, ranging in size from the few inches of the North American variety to some tropical species that may be over a foot long. When at rest their front legs are stretched out, heightening their camouflage. Some 9f the tropical species are adorned with spines or ridges, imitating the thorny bushes or trees in wh9ch they live.。

Gloria knew that patience, calmness, and if she was affectionate would quiet the child down.IV. The following paragraphs are not unified because each paragraph contains a sentence that does not relate to the controlling idea. If you find such a sentence, please underline it.1. As more women in the United States move up the professional ladder, more arefinding it necessary to make business trips alone. Since this is new for many, some pieces of advice are certainly needed. If you are married, it is a good idea to encourage your husband and children to learn to cook a few simple meals while you are away. They will be much happier and probably they will enjoy the experience. Certainly, children should be given more time to practice independence. If you will be eating alone a good deal, choose good restaurant. In the end, they will be much better for your digestion. You may also find it useful to call the restaurant in advance and state that you will be eating alone. You will probably get better service and almost certainly a better table. Finally, and most importantly, anticipate your travel needs as a business woman；this starts with light-weight luggage which you can easily manage even when fully packed. Take a folding case inside your suitcase；it will come in extremely handy for dirty clothes, as well as for business documents and papers you no longer need on the trip. And make sure you have a briefcase so that you can keep currently required papers separate. Obviously, experience helps, but you can make things easier on yourself from the first by careful planning, so that right from the start you really can have a good trip!2. Peirce's extensive publications are scattered among various publication media, andhave been difficult to collect. The only intelligent way to publish his works is to organize them chronologically and with extremely careful editing. Shortly after his death in 1914, his widow Juliette sold his unpublished manuscripts to the Department of Philosophy at Harvard University. Initially they were under the care of Josiah Royce, but after Royce's death in 1916, and especially after the end of the First World War, the papers were poorly cared for. Many of them were misplaced, lost, given away, scrambled, and the like.Carolyn Eisele, one of several heroes in a great effort to locate and assemble Peirce'swritings, reports having found a lost trunk of Peirce's papers only in the mid-1950's; it had, apparently for decades, been secreted in an unlit, obscure part of the basement in Harvard's Widener Library.3. In many businesses, computers have largely replaced paperwork, because they are fast, and do not make mistakes. As one banker said, “Unlike humans, computers never have a bad day.” And they are honest. Many bank s advertise that their transactions are “untouched by human hands” and therefore safe from human temptation. Obviously, computers have no reason to steal money. But they also have no conscience, and the growing number of computer crimes shows they can be used to steal. Computer criminals probably break into big banks‟ computer systems just for fun. And even if they are caught, it is hard to punish them because there are no witness and often no evidence.4. Why people go to graduate schools? Well, first of all, there's the economy. More people signed up for the GMAT, the business school entrance exam, last year than in any previous year in its history, while 10 percent more law school hopefuls suffered through the LSAT this past December than did in 2001. Seeking refuge in grad school during an inhospitable job market is a time-tested strategy. Universities with higher employment rate naturally enjoy better reputation. When work was scarce in the mid-1980s, graduate applications rose about 7 percent a year. "It's a respectable thing to do," says Susan Krinsky, dean of admissions at the Tulane School of Law in New Orleans. "It's even a productive thing to do." And then there's the money. The lifetime income of those holding master's degrees surpasses those who received only a bachelor's by about $335,000, while professional and doctoral graduates earn $890,000 more than the bachelor's holders, according to the Employment Policy Foundation.5. Learning a foreign language has changed. Not so long ago, students would sit with pens in hand, writing the basic forms of a language, learning structures they would never be able to speak. In that same classroom today, pens and notebooks have been put away. Thespoken sounds of foreign tongue fill the room. Today, the last skill learned writing a foreign language comes as a natural and possible part of the total language learning process. Yet, just a few years ago, the last skill learned was the first skill mastered today speaking a foreign tongue. To visit some foreign countries, travelers have to apply for visas.V. Put the sentences of each group in correct order.Group 11. He called the device the photophone.2. The photophone did not use electricity to carry sound over wires between two people.3. Most people know that Alexander Graham Bell invented the telephone.4. …Photophone ‟comes from the Greek words for …light‟ and …sound‟.5. But not many know about another talking device he invented just four years later, in1880.6. With his invention, Bell could actually transmit human speech on a beam of light.7. Instead, the photophone used a beam of sunlight traveling through the air.Group 21. It is not necessary for you to write in it everyday, but it helps to record various insightsyou gain as you go about living your life.2. One of the things that have helped me to listen to my thoughts has been to keep ajournal.3. Because your words and your thoughts will determine your actions.4. (I've found that if I don't immediately write down ideas and insights as they come, it'shard to remember them later, at least with the same degree of clarity.)5. Whichever method you choose, what's most important is that you write your thoughtsdown.6. It will help you know what's in your heart.7. Listen to your words and listen even more closely to your thoughts. Why?8. Instead of using a big notebook, you might use a small note pad that you can keep inyour purse or pocket for easy access to record your thoughts as they occur to you.Group 3The last decade has brought about a revolution in our understanding of the earth and the forces that shape it. Centuries ago geographers noticed that the continents of Africa and South America appear to fit together like a jigsaw puzzle (拼板玩具).1. The evidence comes from two quite different sources.2. Moreover, he suggested that the movement was the result of forces related to the spin ofthe earth.3. One was the exploration of the geology of the oceans.4. In 1912 the German scientist Wegener put forward the idea that all the continents of theearth have moved, on the grounds that they all seem to fit together like a jig saw puzzle and that there are many similarities in the distribution of animals and plants.5. Wegener's idea was attacked for over half a century by conservative geologists whocould not believe how continents could move, but now the evidence is becoming overwhelming that they do.6. Other evidence comes from the study of paleogeomagnetism.VI. Fill in the blanks with appropriate transitions or prepositions listed below.In this technical business world, the process of management decision-making has grown more complex. There is, however, a limit (1) the number of decisions that can be made by one person.

Our first acquaintance with them comes not from our mother‟s lips or from the talk of our school-mates, 7 from books that we read, lectures that we attend, or the more 8 conversation of highly educated speakers who are discussing some particular topic in a style appropriately elevated above the habitual 9 of everyday life.

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.Passage OneIt is an inescapable fact that to most people there comes time when failing powers of mind or body make it impossible for them to manage their daily lives without some sort of help, and despite the weakened sense of family solidarity, this help is still forthcoming in many cases from children, other relatives, or occasionally friends. When an old person or old couple gives up an independent home and becomes part of another household it does not mean that all the problems of old age are automatically solved; the problems are different, not so pressing perhaps, and their solution lies more with the younger relatives than with the older people themselves.Caring for the aged, wherever they may be living, requires skill as well as goodwill. Much advice is now available for those caring for young children and babies, and there are numerous books to help mothers in bringing up their families, but as far as I know little has been written about the day-to-day care of old people. Fortunately the first essentials, sympathy and affection, are very often to be found, and will carry relatives, friends and old people a long way, but not the whole way; without these two virtues the work of caring for the old can be burdensome and unrewarding.1.The author states that it is ______ that most people in course of time, become too old to takecare of themselves.A. generally acceptedB. undeniableC. very regrettableD. just inevitable2. People, when too old to manage their daily lives, usually can get help from children and otherrelatives ________.A. because of the strong sense of family solidarity.B. though the sense of family solidarity has been weakened.C. even if they insist on living independentlyD. so they prefer to live in another household3. Whether the problems of old age can be properly solved depends mainly on ______.A. the younger family membersB. the older people themselvesC. how much advice is availableD. how cooperative the older people are4. The author suggests that _______.A. the work for the old can be highly rewarding though very burdensomeB. much more is to be written about the day-to-day care of the oldC. Not all young people are aware that it calls for thoughtfulness and skill to take good careof old peopleD. not all young people have enough sympathy and affection for old people5. What do you suppose the author will go on to discuss in the following paragraphs?A. The importance of solving the problems of old age.B. The need for the young to foster deep sympathy and love for the aged.C. Some advice on how to treat the old thoughtfully and tactfully.D. A request for setting up more homes-for-the-aged.Passage TwoMan is a gregarious creature. Companionship plays an important role in human development at all stages in life. The hours that a child plays in company with his peers expand his life space, help him to develop his physical skills, and provide him with experience in getting along with others. Contact with peers becomes the primary means for the adolescent to achieve independence from parents and the attainment of status as an individual in his own right.Finding a congenial social group is one of the major development tasks of adulthood. In the later years of life, the loss of the loved ones through death, the preoccupation of sons and daughters with their own adult problems, the decline of physical powers, and the loss of occupation all serve to make the search for companionship of lifelong importance in the satisfaction of fundamental psychological needs. As long a one lives, adjustment will be conditioned by the capacity for, and skill in the conduct of, companionship.The capacity for establishing effective relationships with others results from social contacts, not primarily from what one learns out of books. You need to form and preserve friendships. In college this means the participation in at least one club or organization and in at least some extracurricular campus activities. This participation will aid you in improving your social skills and will provide you with desirable companionship.In seeking satisfaction from companionship, you also need to cultivate a deep friendship with several special persons with whom you can share your triumphs and disappointments. It is a psychological fact that telling your troubles to another person affords release from psychological tensions, provides feedback so as to give you a truer and more valid perspective of your problems. True, special friends will overlook your shortcomings and at the same time assist you in evaluating and overcoming your difficulties. The benefits of such special companionship cannot be all one-sided or there would be no friendship. Your special friends have the right to expect and receive these same satisfactions from you.6. This selection is concerned mainly with ________.A. the important role which companionship plays the development of human lifeB. the capacity for companionshipC. the skills in conduct of companionshipD. cultivation of a deep friendship with special persons7. Which of the following is NOT true?A. companionship helps the young people shape their character.B. companionship helps adults succeed in their career.C. the best way to develop one‟s capacity for companionship is to find a good book on thattopic.D. the best way to find a good friend is to be one.8. According to the author, good friends will _____ your shortcomings.A. criticizeB. help you analyze and overcomeC. forgiveD. pay no attention to9. According to the author, com0anionship can enrich personal satisfactions by _______.A. affording emotional releaseB. providing an opportunity to care about othersC. creating a feeling of true significanceD. all of the above10. a suitable title for the passage might be ________.A. “Man −− A Social Creature”B. “Companionship − A Basic Psychological Need”C. “Friendship − A Mutual Relationship”D. “How to Seek Personal Satisfaction from Companionship"Passage ThreeBy far the most common snake in Britain is the adder. In Scotland, in fact, there are no other kinds of poisonous snakes. It can be found almost anywhere, but it prefers sunny hillsides and rough open country, including high ground. In Ireland there are no snakes at all.Most people regard snake bites as deadly, but not all bites are serious, and very few are deadly. Sometimes attempts at emergency treatment turn out to be more dangerous than the bite itself, with someone heroically, but mistakenly, trying to do-it-yourself surgery and other unnecessary measures.All snakes have small teeth, so it follows that all snakes can bite, but only the bite of the adder presents any danger. British snakes are shy animals and are far more frightened of you than you could possibly be of them. The adder will attack only if it feels threatened, as can happen if you take it by surprise and step on it accidentally, or if you try to catch it or pick it up, which it dislikes intensely. If it hears you coming, it will normally get out the way as quickly as it can, but adders cannot move very rapidly and may attack before moving if you are very close.The effect of a bite varies considerably. It depends upon several things, one of which is the body-weight of the person bitten. The bigger the person, the less harmful the bite is likely to be, which is why children suffer far more seriously from snake bites than adults. A healthy person will also have better resistance against the poison.Very few people actually die from snake bites in Britain, and though these bites can make some people very ill, there are probably just as many cases of bites having little or no effect, as there are of serious illness.11. Adders are to be found___________.A. in many parts of Britain and IrelandB. Everywhere in Britain except ScotlandC. on wild land throughout BritainD. in shady field in Scotland12. If you are with someone who is bitten by an adder, you should __________.A. try to catch the adderB. make no attempt to treat the bite by yourselfC. not worry about the victimD. operate on him as soon as possible13. We are told that adders are _________.A. normally friendly towards people。

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.Passage OneThe advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists・If has been argued that the supply of good land is limited・To feed a large population, inferior land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Olhcr economists have argued that a large population gives more scope for specialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify (hem.One of the difficulties in carrying out a world-wide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expended population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, it will be the first concern of government to place a limit on the birthrate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birthrate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline・1.A small population may mean _________ .A.higher productivity, but a lower average incomeB.1 over productivity, but a higher average incomeC.lower productivity and a lower average incomeD・ higher productivity and a higher average income2.According to the passage, a large population will provide a chance for developingA.agricultureB. transport systemC. industry D・ national economy3.In a developed country, people will perhaps go out of work if the birthrate __________A.goes upB. goes downC・ remains stable D. is out of control4.According to the passage, slowly rising birthrate perhaps is good for ___________ ・A.a developing nationB. a developed nationC. every nation with a big populationD. every nation with a small population5.Il is no easy job to carry out a general plan for birth control throughout the world becauseA.there are too many underdeveloped countries in the worldB.underdeveloped countries have low level of industrial developmentC.different governments have different views of the questionD.even developed countries may have complex problemsPassage TwoThe early feminists fought for the right to be equal with men. Then women found themselves with the freedom to study and think. But it was too often at the price of sacrificing a personal life. So they went back into the home・ In the present generation women who have devoted themselves to home making have rediscovered its hardships and limitations and are demanding the right to leave the home・ But this time they do not want to give up anything homemaking entails. They would have the period of child rearing considered a special episode・ In their view, the woman with a job is to be more admired as a mother and its more stimulating as a wife・ it would be well to ask; is this an expression of anything more that another swing of the pendulum?The problems facing articulate, educated women remain as vivid today as they have been throughout European history. The continuous care given to small children, a husband, and a household usually is incompatible with the single-minded pursuit of a career. The life style of the good wife and mother contrasts sharply with that of the good scientist, artist, or executive.6.The early feminists * attitude towards equality and personal life is that _____ .A.they were willing to pay any price for equalityB.they were willing to give up their personal lives to gain the freedom to study and thingC.they wanted the freedom to study and think but were not willing to pay the price of giving up theirpersonal lifeD.wanted to spend their whole lives devoted to their families7.According to the passage the modern feminists hold the view that _______ .A.home making is not necessaryB・ a woman with a job is much better than a mere mother and wifeC.it's worthwhile to spend their lives devoted to their familiesD.equality is the most important thing in their lives8.According to the passage the problem modem women face ________ ・A.has changed through historyB.remains as sharp as beforeC・ is that they no longer have the right to be equal with menD.is independence9.The writer feels that _______ ・A.having a family is better than having a careerB.having a career is better than having a familyC.the tow lifestyles van fit togetherD.the two lifestyles can't fit together10.It is probably implied that _______ .A.women face more problems than menB.women want to pursue good careersC.women want to enjoy personal livesD・ women want equalityPassage ThreeMarket prices may move up or down (or remain the same) in response to a host of factors causing shirts in supply (the whole supply curve) or demand (the whole demand curve) or both together.Bad weather makes process go up ——not just the prices of agricultural products, but of a greatmany other goods ranging from steel to night-gowns —— because of interruptions of production, breakdowns in transportation, power failure, etc.Changes in technology cause shifts in supply curve; a more efficient way of making transistors brings down the prices of calculators, computer, radios, television sets, record players, recorders・Increases in the scale of production, as we have seen, often bring down certain product prices・Shrinking oil and mineral reserves contract supply, and prices move up. diseconomies' resulting from shrinking scales of production, as when the market for handmade pocketbooks, horse drawn carriages, grandfather clocks, custom tailoring, and handmade furniture contracts, push up the price of such products not only absolutely, but relatively far above what they were in the old day, when skilled labor was cheaper and more abundant.11.What is the main idea of this passage?A.The fluctuation of market price has a number of causes・B.Climate affects economy.C.The cost of skilled labor is increasing.D.Shrinking oil and mineral reserves cause the change of price・12.Why does bad weather make prices go up?A.Because it can interfere with production fro some time・B.Because the factories are broken down.C.Because there is a shortage of labor.D.Because it can interfere with the development of technology.13.Which of the following products9 prices decreases because of the changes in technology?A.Minerals.B. Horse drawn carriages・C・ Grandfather clocks・D・ Computers・14.We can infer from the passage that in the old days a grandfather clock was much cheaperbecause ______ ・A.the material was cheaper B・ skilled labor was cheaperC.more people made this kind of clockD. Both B and C15.As used throughout the passage the word 'curve5 refers to _______ ・A.a bending lineB. a winding roadC. a graphed line D・ shiftsPassage FourThere are various ways in which individual economic units can interact with one another.These basic ways may be described as the market system, the administered system and the traditi9nid system.In a market system individual economic units are free to interact among each other in the marketplace. It is possible to buy commodities from other economic units or sell commodities to them. In a market, transactions may take place via barter or money exchange・ In a barter economy, real good such as automobiles, shoes, and pizzas are traded against each other. Obviously, finding somebody who wants to trade my old car in exchange for a sailboat may not always be an easy task・Hence, the introduction of money, good and services are bought or sold for money・An alternative to the market system is administrative control by some agency over all transactions・This agency will issue edicts or commands as to h9w much of each good and service should be produced,。

Narrative writing gives an account of events or experiences in chronological order; that is, in the order in which they occurred. A writer can also use the flashback method of story-telling, starting with an important point in the sequence of events to be narrated and then going back in time. A story can be narrated from the first person point of view or from the third person point of view. Two kinds of narration are discriminated: the straight or simple narrative and the plot narrative. The former records a series of events without introducing complications and solutions. The latter makes use of suspense and climax, stresses cause and effect, and is usually fictional. In its broad sense, narrative writing includes stories, biographies, histories, news items, and narrative poems. Narration does not work alone. It goes hand in hand with description.Description: one of the four major forms or types of discourse. It means painting in words a picture of a person, place, object, scene or setting. It enables the reader to see, hear, taste or feel in imagination. Description is seldom used for its sake. It goes hand in hand with narration, exposition or even argumentation. While narration follows time order, description makes use of space order. Scientific description is objective, literary description is impressionistic, and journalistic description is a combination of the two. In literary description, figurative language abounds. Metaphor, simile, and personification are the most commonly used figures of speech.Exposition:one of the four major types of writing. Its function is to explain, explore or expound. Ways of development used in expository compositions include: definition, illustration, comparison, contrast, classification, analysis, cause and effect, and generalization. In drama and fiction, exposition refers to the essential information necessary for the audience and readers to appreciate what has happened and what is to happen.Argumentation:one of the four main types of writing, the other three being narration, description, and exposition. An argumentative essay aims to convince or persuade the reader that something is true or false.Style: how a writer says something. Style is the man.Induction: one of the methods used in the process of logical reasoning. It is the opposite of deduction.Summary: a type of writing that retells the main story in a book or that summarizes the main content in a longer piece of writing.Deduction: one of the methods used in the process of logical reasoning. It is the opposite of induction.Book Report:a type of writing that not only retells the main story in a book or that summarizes the main content in a longer piece of writing, but also contains the writer’s interpretation and analysis.III.G ive brief answers to the following questions. (20)1.What is paragraph development by comparison? How does it differ from the contrastmethod? (The former emphasizes the similarities and the latter differences)2.What is unity? And what is coherence? (The former means “one paragraph, one mainidea” and the latter means “the unbroken and smooth forward movement of ideas.”3.Can you name three ways of beginning a composition? And what are they? (By asking aquestion, by using a quotation, by making an analogy and so on.)4.What are the two major logical reasoning methods? Explain them. (Induction anddeduction)5.Can you explain simile and metaphor, please? (The former is an explicit comparisonbetween two essentially different things. It is indicated by “like” or “as”. The latter is animplicit comparison between two distinct things. It is without “like” or “as”.)6.Can you name three ways of essay development? (By cause and effect, by comparisonand contrast, by classification, by time and space, and the like.)IV.Choose one of the following topics and develop a composition of about 300 words. （30）1. A Little Learning Is Dangerous2.Character Is Fate3.Is Money Everything?4.Does the End Always Justify the Means?5.God Must Be Lonely6.Mercy Killing7.Honesty Is the Best Policy。

Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four suggested answersmarked A, B, C and D. Choose the best answer to each question.Test OnePassage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Every human being, no matter what he is doing, gives off body heat. The usual problem is how to get rid of it. But the designers of the Johnstown campus of the University of Pittsburgh set themselves the opposite problem – how to collect body heat. They have designed a collection system which uses not only body heat, but the heat given off by such objects as light bulbs and refrigerators as well. The system works so well that no fuel is needed to make the campus’s six buildings comfortable.Some parts of most modern buildings – theaters and offices as well as classrooms – are more than sufficiently heated by people and lights and sometimes must be air-conditioned even in winter. The technique of saving heat and redistributing it is called “heat recovery”. A few modern buildings recover heat, but the University’s system is the first to recover heat from buildings and reuse it in others.Along the way, Pitt has learned a great deal about some of its producers. The harder a student studies, the more heat his body gives off. Male students send out more heat than female students, and the larger a student is, the more heat he produces. It is tempting to conclude that the hottest prospect for the Johnstown campus would be a hard-working overweight male genius.1. What is characteristic of the buildings on Johnstown campus of the University of PittsburghA. They are more comfortable to live in than other buildings.B. They collect body heat to regulate the temperature inside.C. They use light bulbs to heat the classrooms.D. They consume less fuel to keep the classrooms cool.2. According to the passage, the technique of heat recovery is used ________.A. to provide a special form of air-conditioningB. to provide heat for the hot water systemC. to find out the source of heatD. to collect heat and reuse it3. The phrase “the hottest prospect” in this passage refers to ________.A. the person who suffers most from heatB. the person who needs more heat than othersC. the person who gives off most heatD. the person who make better use of body heat。

And it‘s not just puppy lovers, either. Many pet owners treat their furry friends as part of the family. Sometimes they spice up their pets‘ lives with entertaining videos and amusing toys. If they have an eye for fashion, pet owners can dress their pets in stylish clothes. For special occasions, they can use canine perfume to make their dogs smell well, less beastly. You might say Americans treat their pets like they treat their children— sometimes even better.In America, there are more households with pets than those with children. At least 43 percent of U.S homes have pets of some sort. Exotic creatures, such as monkeys, snakes and even wolves, find a home with some Americans. More common pets include tropical fish, mice and birds. But the all-time favorites are cats and dogs, even at the White House. Americans sometimes have strong feelings about whether dogs or cats make better pets. ―Dog people‖ and ―cat people‖ oftenenjoy friendly rivalries.Leading a dog‘s life in America isn‘t a bad thing. Many grocery stores sell gourmet pet foods to owners eager to please their pets. In Houston, Texas, dogs can have their dinner delivered to their homes, just like pizza. Well-to-do canines can attend doggy daycare centers while their owners work. Pets can even accompany their owners on vacation. Fancy hotels are beginning to accommodate both men and beast. Furry guests at Four Seasons Hotels can enjoy gourmet meals served on fine china and sleep in soft beds.Beneath the fluffy luxuries, there lies a basic American belief: Pets have a right to be treated well. At least 75 animal welfare organizations exist in America. These provide care and adoption services for homeless and abused animals. Veterinarians can give animals an incredible level of medical care for an incredible price. To pay for the high-tech health care, people can buy health insurance for their pets. And when it‘s time to say good-bye, owners can bury their pets in a respectable pet cemetery.The average American enjoys having pets around, and for good reason. Researchers have discovered that interacting with animals lowers a person‘s blood pressure. Dogs can offer protection from burglars and unwelcome visitors. Cats can help rid the home of unwelcome pests. Little creatures of all shapes and sizes can provide companionship and love. In many cases, having a pet prepares a young couple for the responsibilities of parenthood. Pets even encourage social relationships. They give their owners an appearance of friendliness, and they provide a good topic of conversation.Pets are as basic to American culture as hot dogs or apple pie. To Americans, pets are not just property, but a part of the family. After all, pets are people.121.What‘s the meaning of ―spice‖ in paragraph 1?A. add interest toB. add ingredient toC. add worryD. add fuel to122.Which of the following has the closest meaning to the sentence ― ‗Dog people‘‖ and ‗cat people‘ often friendly rivalries.‖ in paragraph 2?A. People who are like the dog and the cat enjoy their quarrels.B. People who are like the dog and cat often relate well.C. People who like the dog and the cat often relate very well.D. People who like the dog and the cat enjoy joking argument.123.Why does the author say Americans have good reason for keeping pets?A. Because pets can please their owners.B. Because pets make their owners more friendly.C. Because pet owners can talk to their pets.D. Because staying with pets is healthy.124.According to the passage, what may happen to some homeless and abused animals?A. They have no food to eat and no place to love in.B. They can receive very good medical cares for very low prices.C. More than 75 animal welfare organizations can take care of them.D. They can be insured by some insurance companies.125.Why does the author say ―pets are people‖?A. Because people cannot live without pets.B. Because pets are property of people.C. Because all pets can get on well with people.D. Because pets can understand people well.(2)If you are like most people, your intelligence varies from season to season. You are probably a lot sharper in the spring than you are at any other time of year. A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington(1876—1947), concluded from other men‘s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate and temperature have a definite effect on our mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favourable for creative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of larger numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man‘s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes an all nature.Fall is the next-best season, then winter. As for summer, it seems to be a good time to take a long vacation from thinking.126.According to the selection, your intelligence probably __________.A. stays the same throughout the yearB. varies from day to dayC. changes with the seasonsD. changes from year to year127.Ellsworth Huntington decided that climate and temperature have __________.A. a great effect on everyone‘s intelligenceB. some effect on most person s‘ intelligenceC. some effect on a few persons‘ intelligenceD. no effect on most persons‘ intelligence128.It seems that the cold of winter __________.A. is the worst season for thinkingB. is the best time for thinkingC. is better for thinking than in very warm weatherD. increases the ability to think129.One possible reason why spring is the best season for thinking is that __________.A. all nature, including man, is growing thenB. it lasts longer than the other seasonsC. it is coolD. both A and C130.According to the selection, any vacations from thinking should be taken __________.A. several times throughout the yearB. during spring and fallC. during the summerD. as seldom as possible(3)Birds help us in different ways. Some birds kill enormous quantities of insects, which they feed to their young. Many birds eat insects throughout the year.It has been found that during the summer all the birds of a certain state together probably ate over 20,000 bushels of insects a day! Most of these insects were harmful. Think what would happen if all these insects were not killed. Trees and crops would be destroyed, and the air would be filled with insects.Some birds are thought of as policemen. All summer long, wrens, robins, and many other birds search for all kinds of insects. All day long, swallows and flycatchers are sweeping the air clean of flying insects. At night whippoorwills and nighthawks continue to patrol the air for flying insects.Many of our common birds are mostly seed eaters. These birds eat large quantities of weed seeds. Weeds keep cultivated plants from growing properly. Farmers and gardeners must fight weeds constantly if they wish good crops or attractive gardens. If it were not for the seed-eating birds, the farmer‘s task would be much harder. A large seed-eating bird, such as the snow bunting, can eat a thousand seeds of pigweed at one meal.Some of our larger birds are very useful in killing harmful small animals, such as mice and gophers. Such birds are often called birds of prey. The animals that they kill often do much damage to our crops. The hawks and owls are the most helpful birds in this group. The hawks work during the day, and the owls work at night.Some of our other large birds are useful in eating dead animals or other refuse that would cause bad smells if left to decay. These birds are called scavengers. The turkey buzzard is one ofour best scavengers.131.The sentence ―Weeds keep cultivated plants from growing properly‖ in Paragraph 4 means ______.A. Weeds are helpful to the growth of cultivated plantsB. Weeds will keep plants growing in the right wayC. Weeds are useful for the cultivation of plants through growing properlyD. Weeds will do harm to the cultivated plants for their proper growth132.The ―snow bunting‖ mentioned in the passage is most probably a bird that ______.A. lives on the snowB. feeds on pigweedC. is found in gardensD. is a seed eater133.Birds of prey are a particular type of birds that _______.A. work either during the day or at nightB. kill only small animals, such as mice and gophersC. kill animals that damage our cropsD. kill animals as their food134.Which of the following types of birds are NOT mentioned in the passage? _______.A. Birds that feed on cropsB. Birds that eat deserted dead animalsC. Birds that kill animalsD. Birds that catch insects135.Quite a number of birds are mentioned in the passage EXCEPT _______.A. turkey buzzardsB. swallowsC. sparrowsD. scavengers(4)Perhaps, you are going to finish school soon and, like many other students, you want to further your study abroad.

Here are some tips from professional storyteller, Leticia Pizzino, who lives in Salt Lake City and is currently on a six-week storytelling tour.It sounds pretty basic, but every good story has a beginning, a middle, and an end. When you begin the story, give enough details about the setting and characters so that listeners can create their own pictures in their minds. Describe the scene and tell something about the people and the time so that your listeners know where they are.Your story should have some kinds of challenge or problem for the characters to solve. This is the heart of your story, and it should be something your listeners can understand. Maybe they had to deal with a similar challenge of their own.Even if the setting of your story is another galaxy far, far away, the challenge the characters face should be something your listeners can relate to. It might be helping a friend, choosing between good and evil, getting back home, or finding something that was lost. No matter where the story takes place, it can be about a subject or problem people face in their own lives right here.The story must have a good ending. It doesn‘t have to be a happy ending, although these are the most fun, but it does need to conclude. Don‘t leave any loose ends. Your listeners should feel a sense of completion when the story is over.Many storytellers use various things to help them bring their stories to life. They may add music or sound effects (bell, whistles, drum, even recorded sounds). They might use puppet, props, or costumes to help people imagine what is happening.

Answer the following questions (50 points; in test it contains 5 questions):1. What is the relationship between form and content?One way of talking about style is to make a distinction between form and content.Content is the message or information or the communicative value that is encoded or loaded in a linguistic expression. Form is the particular way of expressing the message.The form is the style which may be different from case to case although the meaning may remain the same. For example, the Chinese term 开始may be expressed indifferent English words, such as start, begin and commence, but each suggests a different style.2. What are the differences between language and speech?Another way of talking about style is to make a distinctionbetween language and speech, which may be translated in Chinese as 语言and 言语. This distinction was first proposed by Saussure, the founder of the modern linguistics. According to Saussure, there are four major differences between language and speech.A. Language is abstract whereas speech is concrete. Language is abstract in the sensethat it has only psychological instead of physical existence. Language is notsomething that you can bring to the classroom and examine under the microscope,not something you can hear, see, smell , touch or taste. Speech is concrete in thesense that it has physical properties. Either can be heard in the spoken form or seenin the written form.B. Language is potential whereas speech is actual. Language is potential in the sensethat it is a kind of can-mean system, while speech is something that has an actualmeaning.C. Language is code whereas speech is message(语言是一个代码系统，言语才是信息). Language is a set of symbols that can be used to transmit information. Speechis the actual use of the language in an act of communication in a particular situationfor a particular purpose. It carries a real message.D. Language is stable and systematic whereas speech is subject to personal andsituational constraint. For example, the word book in the English language alwaysrefers to some printed matter. But in speech it may be used to refer to anything thatthe speaker wants to refer to by the use of it as long as it is understandable. Thecommon example is the sentence: He is a walking dictionary(a kind of book)meaning that he is very knowledgeable.3. What is the methodology of stylistic analysis? What are the levels of stylistic analysis?The major methodology for stylistic analysis is linguistic analysis. It tries to be objective or scientific in its analysis. According to the advocates of this methodology, anyone using this methodology to analyze a given text of literature will reach roughly the same conclusion.Levels of analysisSince stylistic analysis is a kind of linguistic analysis, naturally, how many levels of structure we have in a language correspondingly how many levels of structure at which we may do stylistic analysis.1) PhonologicalPhonological analysis is chiefly concerned about the sound patterns of a piece of literature, especially those of poetry.2) LexicalLexical analysis is chiefly concerned about the internal structure and the stylistic coloring and the semantic relationship of the words in the text.3) SyntacticalSyntactical analysis is chiefly concerned about how the wordsin a text are put together to produce meaning and other kinds of message.4) DiscoursalDiscoursal analysis is concerned about how sentences are joined together to producea cohesive and coherent text.4. Define paralinguistic features. What are they?Definition: the vocal effects caused by different shaping of the vocal cords and openings.Kinds and the corresponding stylistic effects.1) Whispery voice: utterance without any vocal cord vibration at all. Emphasizingcontrast.2) Breathy voice: utterance where there is too much breath for the needs of thearticulation, the effect being one of mild ‘puffing and blowing’. Expressing surprise and astonishment.3) Creaky voice: a slow crackle of vocal cord vibrations at a low pitch, like a stickbeing run along a fence.4) Falsetto: a switch of the voice from one vocal register to a higher one; usually foundonly in males.5. What are the three ways of studying the sound of language?A. articulatory phoneticsThe study of the sounds of a language with special attention to the speaker: the movement of the lungs, vocal cords, tongue, the lips and other organs which produce and control the noisy outward breathing.B. acoustic phoneticsThe study of the physical properties of the sound waves in the air when being transmitted from the speaker to the hearer.C. auditory phoneticsThe study of how the sound of speech is received by the hearer6. What are the four typical meters in English poetry?In English poetry, stress is usually used in the realization of meter. The followings arethe four most typical meters.1) Iamb: Iamb is a metric foot consisting of an unstressed syllable followed by astressed syllable.2) Trochee: Trochee is a metric foot consisting of a stressed syllable followed by anunstressed syllable.3) Anapest: Anapest is a metric foot composed of two unstressed syllables followed byone stressed one.4) Dactyl: Dactyl is a metric foot composed of one stressed syllable followed by twounstressed ones7. What is the relationship between sound and meaning?According to Saussure, the relationship between sound and meaning is arbitrary in the sense that why a certain meaning takes a particular sound has no reason and it is completely accident. But in literature, the writers always try to arrange the words in sucha way as to make the patterns of sound to directly suggest the meaning.8. What is the relationship between style and the choice ofwords, according to thestylisticians?The stylisticians’ attitude: they lay emphasis on the adaptability to the sit uation.Standard, non-standard, black, dialectal, slang, archaisms are equally good in their expressiveness. There is no distinction of one being superior and other being inferior.9. How many kinds of word meanings may be classified? And what are they?According to the linguists, a word has various kinds of meaning. The first kind of meaning is denotative meaning.1) Denotative (概念意义)The kind of meaning we can get from the dictionary. It can also be termed as dictionary meaning, conceptual meaning, logical meaning and referential meaning.This is the most basic meaning that we understand a word has.2) Stylistic = social (社会意义)The kind of meaning associated with a particular social situation in which a particular word is often used. e.g begin, start, commence3) Affective meaning(情感意义)It is the emotional, attitudinal and evaluative coloring of a word. e.g. cunning and clever. Both mean the skillful handling of a delicate or difficult situation. But they reveal different attitudes and evaluation of the speaker.4) Collocative (搭配意义)Some words may have the same dictionary meaning, but they collocate withdifferent words, as shown by the pair or synonyms of prettyand handsome.5) Connotative (内涵意义)the cultural and social implications of a word.10. What are the three basic components of the English vocabulary?The three basic components of the English vocabularyA Anglo-Saxona. Members of the familyb. Parts of the bodyc. Natured. Timee. One-syllabled verbsB Frencha. Government and Lawb. Army and military activitiesc. Religiond. CostumesC Latina. Medicineb. Lawc. Theologyd. Sciencee. Literature11. Functionally speaking, what are the four types of English sentences?1) Declarative 2) Interrogative3) Exclamatory 4) Imperative12. What are the conjunctions used in combining English sentences?1) Progressive conjunction (推进性连接): by the use ofconjunctive words of additionor progression, such as and, furthermore, moreover, etc.2) Contrastive conjunction (对照性连接): by the use of conjunctive words of contrastor transition, such as but, whereas, while, on the contrary, on the other hand, etc.3) Temporal conjunction (时间性连接): by the use of conjunctive words of temporalsequence, such as then, later, afterwards, at last, or finally, etc13. What are the gestures may be used in a casual conversation?Facial expressions, eye-contact, body positions, distance, physical touch, soundmodification, clothing, and environment14. What are the three types of substitution? Can you give some examples?A. Nominal substitution (名词性替代)1) The meaning of one/ones e.g. You bought a red pencil, I’d like a blue one.2) The use of the “same”Example:A: I want a cup of teaB: The same.3) T he use of “kind, sort”. e.g. American food is not t he same as the English kind.B. Verbal substitution (动词性替代)Do you like Chinese food?Yes, I do.He likes Chinese food. So do I.C. Clausal substitution (分句性替代)1) The use of “so” “not”Example: A: Do you think he will come tomorrow?B: Yes, I think so./ No, I think not.2) LimitationClausal substitution applies only to sentences, where the predicate verb of amain clause is one of the following verbs:believe, be afraid, expect, fear, hope, imagine, say, tell, think, suppose.15. What is the relationship between dialect and register?Another way of talking about style, is to make a distinction between dialects and registers.A: Speaker orientedDialects are speaker oriented. What kind of speaker speaks what kind of dialect.Dialects may be regional or social. Regional dialect (地域方言)is determined by the geographical locality the speaker lives in. The social dialect is determined by the social groupings that a person belongs to.B: Situation orientedRegister is situational oriented. Register is the language determined by situation, and because of this we have such registers as formal English, informal English, classroom English, legal English, etc.16. Name at least five kinds of figures of speech in English.Simile, metaphor, metonymy, synecdoche, irony, overstatement, etc.17. Can you give some examples of rhetorical questions?Idea: a rhetorical question is one which does not really need an answer, or the answer is obviousExamples:Is that a reason for despair?Can any one doubt the wisdom of this action?Is no one going to defend me?What difference does it make then?18.

初中英语复习思考题1.依据巴特利特和鲁梅尔哈特的观点，图式分别代表什么？巴特利特把图式定义为围绕某一主题组织起来的知识表征和记忆贮存方式，是“各种过去反应、过去经历的动态组合体，它在任何生物反应中都起着作用。
”鲁梅尔哈特的观点，图式代表一种相互作用的知识结构，涵盖了词汇意义、复杂事件、意识形态等不同层面的知识网络，也就是指人们通过不同途径所积累的各种知识、经验等的集合。
图式有序地储存在人类大脑的长期记忆中，构成一个庞大的网络2.从鲁梅尔哈特的图式观点来看，学习过程是什么样的过程？在其图式理论柜架内有哪几种学习模式？学习过程，作为一个认知过程，既是对情境的反应，又是对记忆网络中似单元的激活，并使实际激活模式与新信息之间产生匹配、产生理解的过程。
因此可以说，学习过程就是认知结构不断变化和重新组织的过程。
在图式理论的框架内划分了三种主要的学习模式：1)增生(accretion)；2)调适(tuning)；3)重建( reconstruction)。
(Rumelhart &Norman，1978：38–50；Rumelhart，1980：52 - 4)3.基于鲁梅尔哈特的学习模式，教学过程中应该重视什么？教学过程中应该重视的不是学生知识点的增加，而是学生的能动作用、学生认知能力的发展，因为在教学过程中，学生才是真正的主体4.课堂教学的设计应该以什么为起点？课堂教学要以学生的认知状况为起点。
5.课堂教学的设计要突出什么、注意什么、强调什么？课堂教学的设计要突出学生自主建构知识的必要性，要注意新知识和学生原有图式之间的相互关联性，强调培养学生自主吸纳，构建新知识的能力。
6.课堂教学要尊重什么？课堂教学要尊重学生的自主参与和认知特点7.学习者主动建构的结果是什么？新旧知识的匹配、组织和吸纳是学习者主动建构的结果，8.知识来自于什么？知识来自于主体和客体的结合、互动。
9.怎样才能进行有效的教学？有效的教学在于不断根据学生的认知特点来调整教学内容，改变教学方法，重新建立促进学生建构个人理解的教学实践，帮助学生改变原有的知识图式，提升学生的认知能力。
10.设计课堂教学前必须思考哪些问题？教师如何引导学生的认知获得过程、如何对学生的知识构建过程进行评价和调控教师如何创造有利于学生思考和探索的良好环境是设计课堂教学前必须思考的问题。
11.在教学内容的安排和教学设计上要注意什么？在教学内容的安排上要注重各知识点之间的相互关联和融通，课堂教学的设计要有弹性要学生的思考和自主活动留出空间和时间，教师要引导学生通过对问题的反复思考，帮助学生在新的知识点和先前学过的知识之间建立联系，让学生对知识寻求深入的理解，自觉、自主地建构良好的认知结构。
12.从多种智力理论看多媒体外语教学有哪些优势？1丰富的学习资源有助于满足不同智力学习者的要求2灵活多样的学习方式能够促进学习者智力的全面发展3宽松、自由的多媒体环境为学习者的智力发展创造了良好条件13.怎样才能保证智力发展的最佳效果？多种智力协同作用才会保证智力发展的最佳效果。
14. 多媒体教学对外语学习者有何作用？为学习者的智力发展创造了哪些条件？多媒体教学使外语学习者可以自由选择适合自己的方法，从多个渠道刺激智力的潜能，为促进学生智力的发展起到了推动作用。
在多媒体环境下，学生的学习时间及地点受到较少限制，学习内容和方式可以自由选择，交流的方式主要是和机器打交道，因此，学习主动性大为提高。
这种轻松的环境有利于学生学习效率的提高(蔡基刚，2000)，同时也有益于学生智力的全面发展(Gardner，1983)。
15.多媒体外语教学的主要存在问题有哪些？首先，多媒体外语教学过程对教师和学生的动手操作能力有强迫性的、最基本的要求。
这意味着它对所有参与者的运动智力提出了统一的最低标准，对于运动智力较弱的人可能会产生压力、紧张或焦虑。
其次，发展学习者的多种智力，需要及时、适当地对学习者给予鼓励，但是在多媒体环境下，教师的作用主要是参与课程设计、实施课程管理、提供必要的技术或知识上的支持、检查学习效果等，传统教师的作用被弱化了。
再次，多媒体教学环境本身存在着一定的局限性。
为发展学生的运动智力，传统课堂中，外语教师可以尝试哑剧、角色演习、戏剧等教学方法帮助学生利用身势语、体态手势去表达思想或弥补语言表达能力的欠缺。
16.Goodman认为阅读是怎样的心理过程？Goodman认为：阅读是一种极其复杂的心理语言活动，是作者、语言信息和读者三方面共同作用的结果。
17. 阅读注意力是什么样的心理因素？阅读注意力在整个心理过程中从始至终都起着组织和维持的作用，是在阅读认知过程中具有调控作用的心理因素。
18. 对阅读过程起着定向与动力作用的是什么？阅读兴趣不仅对阅读过程起着定向与动力作用，而且是产生阅读动机的重要主观原因19. 读者对阅读材料的理解依赖于什么？读者对阅读材料的理解依赖于概念能力、处理策略和“已知知识、旧有的知识”的相互作用。
20.阅读认知心理由什么组成？阅读的心理要素分为智力因素和非智力因素。
阅读注意、阅读记忆、阅读思维、阅读想象、阅读联想等基本心理活动组成了阅读认知心理。
21. 英语阅读教学中的语言方面和非语言方面分别指什么？语言方面主要指语言知识水平，在教学中指词汇、习惯用语、语法及篇章知识等；非语言方面主要指与文章内容有关的背景知识、阅读技能和策略等。
22.发展阅读理解的根本途径是什么？心理语言学家认为阅读策略不仅可以提高学生的阅读理解能力，而且还能弥补他们语言知识的不足，如：预测、联想策略可以帮助阅读者发展逻辑思维并锻炼智力猜想(intelligent)，它是发展阅读理解的根本途径。
23. 阅读活动中最活跃、最直接、起支配作用的心理因素是什么?阅读动机是阅读活动中最活跃、最直接、起支配作用的心理因素24. 外语阅读元认知策略包括哪些？元认知策略包括：阅读前策略(预读、预测、联想)；阅读中策略(自我提问、自我监控)；阅读后策略(自我评价、自我反应)。
25. 新课程下的英语科中、高考在考查知识时主要是考查什么？目前已经基本上形成以考查能力为主的命题指导思想，单纯考查知识的试题越来越少（占很少的比例）。
26. 新课程下应该怎样讲授语法？新课程不主张淡化语法，只是提出不要过于强调单纯传授语法知识的做法，不要脱离语境讲授和记忆语法规则。
教师不要脱离语境去讲授语法，学生不要脱离语境去学习语法，这是新课程所倡导的一种理念。
27. 系统的语法知识与以考查能力为主的考试之间有无必然相关关系？英语新课程很重视语言知识，只是注意的方式不同。
没有证据表明系统的语法知识与以考查能力为主的考试之间有必然相关关系。
也就是说，如果将来学生参加的考试是以考查能力为主的话，与学生系统的学习语法没有必然的关系。
28. 为什么考试不需要直接考查学生对语法知识的掌握情况？考试是抽样的，不能也不需要面面俱到。
所谓考什么就教什么，不考就不教的做法是错误的。
不考语法不等于不需要学习语法。
学习语法、词汇是为了形成语言运用能力，中、高考主要考查学习的最终结果。
如果学生在考试中表现出较高的语言运用能力，就说明掌握基本的语法和词汇知识。
因此，考试不需要直接考查学生对语法知识的掌握情况。
也有相反的说法，虽然考试不考语法，但语法是基础，是听力理解、阅读理解的基础，所以还是要重视语法。
如何看待这种说法呢？听、说、读、写等语言技能确实要以一定的语法知识为基础，但是只有语法知识是不能形成这些能力的；如果把大部分时间花在语法上，肯定不能形成听、说、读、写的能力。
所以，不能夸大语法知识的作用，在教学中也不能一味强调语法教学的作用。
29. 对于知识与能力的训练，平时练习与中、高考有何区别？1. 总体来讲，中高考主要以考查能力为主。
一个重要的证据之一就是，考试主要考查听力、阅读和写作能力。
这三部分显然是能力，所以说，至少从考查的内容来看，中考主要考查能力。
虽然有时由于命题技术方面的原因和材料选择方面的问题，还有一小部分考查知识的试题，但这种试题将越来越少。
2. 即使是考查知识，也是考查知识的运用，而不是单纯的考查语言形式。
我们平时的练习题与中、高考题是有本质区别的。
不能只看表面的现象，要看本质的区别。
3. 部分省市的中、高考题将进一步改革，有的地区计划试题只有听力、阅读、写作三部分；适当的时候还要进行口语。
这样就可以逐步过渡到以考查能力为主的考试体系。
一些国外的试题也是这样。
所以，从这个角度来讲，现在的中高考已经不是以考查知识为主了。
30. 听力理解和口头表达的基础是什么？语音是听力理解和口头表达的基础；31. 为什么没有必要单独检测微观语音能力?语音基础差的学生听力一般比较差；较好的听说能力的背后肯定有较好的语音知识和语音能力。
如果学生在听力和口语考试中有很好的表现，就说明他们已经具备了较好的语音能力，因而没有必要单独检测微观语音能力32. 课堂上为什么要开展听说活动或互动活动？一方面，多数地区的中高考含有听力部分，不考听力的地区越来越少；有些地区的中考已经包括口试，而且记入总分，这在很多程度上促进了学生的英语学习，将来的高考也可能进行口试。
另一方面，课堂上的听说活动不完全是为了练习听说能力；听说活动是与读写活动不同的学习渠道，是获得语言知识和其他方面知识的重要过程。
33. 课文的主要功能是什么？课文的首要功能不是作为知识的载体，课文首先是用来阅读的；阅读的目的主要是培养阅读能力，其次是提供语言输入和文化输入；没有必要详细讲解课文中的语言点。
34. 为什么考试不能与教材挂钩？中高考命题时，如果要求考试内容与教材挂钩是不合理的。
终结性外语水平考试一般不应该与某种教材内容直接挂钩。
在教育部下发的《中考命题指导》（2005年江苏教育出版社出版）里明确指出，考试内容不能直接与教材挂钩，既不能以一套教材为蓝本，更不能多套教材兼顾。
所以说，考试是不能与教材挂钩的。
教育部明确规定，各省初高中教材至少有三套。
教材的权威性不取决于它是否与考试挂钩。
35. 语言学习的主要途径是什么？阅读是语言学习的主要途径。
36. 老师应该为学生选择什么样的阅读材料？在阅读教学中，老师给学生的阅读材料的内容应该尽量广泛，能够让学生感兴趣，而不应该局限于带选择题的阅读练习材料。
37. 为什么说大量做习题对提高考试成绩并没有明显的作用？种类繁杂的练习题质量没有保证，各类练习题多围绕知识点设计，而不是考查学生的实际语言运用能力。
大量地做模拟题，而不注重平时的积累，其结果只能是事倍功半。
可以这么说，大量地做练习题和模拟考试题对提高考试成绩并没有明显的作用。
38. 考试前应怎样应试？题化，问题层次化，层次梯度化，梯度渐进化，59. 什么是导学案的核心？“三学”，即学生、学情、学法60. 怎样理解“导学案”？导学案重在“导”，核心是“学”，而案是基于“三学”的设计。
