And I stopped the blade, slicing the air as I pushed him away, letting him fall back to the street.I stared at him hard as the lights of a car stabbed through the darkness, he lay there, moaning on the asphalt; a man almost killed by a phantom. It unnerved me. I was both disgusted and ashamed.I was like a drunken man myself, wavering about on weakened legs. Then I was amused. Somethingin this man’s thick head has sprung out and beaten him within an inch of his life. I began to laugh at this crazy discovery. Would he have awakened at the point of death? Would Death himself have freed him for wakeful living? But I didn’t linger. I ran away into the dark, laughing so hard I feared I might rupture myself.

Excluding 26 and energy, the core index of producer prices rose 0.4 percent, 27 than the 0.1 percent that economists had 28 .Much of that increase was a result of an 29 increase in car and truck prices.On Tuesday, the Labor Department said the 30 that consumers paid for goods and services in July were 31 0.5 percent over all, and up 0.1 percent, excluding food and energy.32 the overall rise in both consumer and producer prices 33 caused by energy costs, which increased 4.4 percent in the month.

Each passage os followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marded A, B, C, and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a pencil.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:Office jobs are among the positions hardest hit by compumation (计算机自动化). Word processors and typists will lose about 93,000 jobs over the next few years, while 57,000 secretarial jobs will vanish. Blame the PC: Today, many executives type their own memos and carry their：“secretaries”in the palms of their hands. Time is also hard for stock clerks, whose ranks are expected to decrease by 68,000. And employees in manufacturing firms and wholesalers are being replaced with computerized systems.But not everyone who loses a job will end up in the unemployment line. Many will shift to growing positions within their own companies. When new technologies shook up the telecomm business, telephone operator Judy Dougherty pursued retraining. She is now a communications technician, earning about $ 64,000 per year. Of course, if you've been a tollbooth collector for the past 30 years, and you find yourself replaced by an E¬-ZPass machine, it may be of little consolation(安慰) to know that the telecomm field is booming.And that's just it: The service economy is fading; welcome to the expertise(专门知识) economy. To succeed in the new job market, you must be able to handle complex problems. Indeed, all but one of the 50 highest-paying occupations---air-traffic controller---de mand at least a bachelor’s degree. For those with just a high school diploma(毕业证书),It's going to get tougher to find a well-paying job. Since fewer factory and clerical jobs will be available, what's left will be the jobs that compumation can’t kill: Computers can’t clean offices ,or care for Alzheimer's patients(老年痴呆病人). But ,since most people have the skills to fill those positions, the wages stay painfully low ,meaning compumation could drive an even deeper wedge (楔子) between the rich and poor. The best advice now: Never stop learning ,and keep up with new technology.For busy adults, of course, that can be tough. The good news is that the very technology that's reducing so many jobs is also making it easier to go back to school without having to sit in a classroom. So-called Internet distance learning is hot, with more than three million students currently enrolled , and it’s gaining credibility with employers.Are you at risk of losing your job to a computer ? Check the federal Bureau of LaborStatistics' Occupational Outlook Handbook, which is available online at bls. gov.41、From the first paragraph we can infer that all of the following persons are easily thrown into unemployment EXCEPT.A. secretariesB. stock clerksC. managersD. wholesalers42、In the second paragraph the author mentions the tollbooth collector toA. mean he will get benefits from the telecomm fieldB. show he is too old to shift to a new positionC. console him on having been replaced by a machineD. blame the PC for his unemployment43.By saying “┅compumation could drive an even deeper wedge between the rich and poor ”(line 5, Para. 4) the author meansA. people are getting richer and richerB. there will be a small gap between rich and poorC. the gap between rich and poor is getting larger and largerD. it’s time to close up the gap between the rich and poor44、What is the author's attitude towards computers?A. positiveB. negativeC. neutralD. prejudiced45、Which of the following might serve as the best title of passage?A. Blaming the PCB. The booming telecomm fieldC. Internet distance leaningD. Keeping up with compumationQuestion 46 to 50 are based on the following passage：Tens of thousands of 18-year-olds will graduate this year and be handed meaningless diplomas. These diplomas won't look any different from those awarded their luckier classmates .Their validity will be questioned only when their employers discover that these graduates are semiliterate(半文盲)Eventually a fortunate few will find their way into educational –repair shops—adult–literacy programs, such as the one where I teach basic grammar and writing. There, high-school graduates and high-school dropouts pursuing graduate-equivalency certificates will learn the skills they should have learned in school, They will also discover they have been cheated by our educational system.I will never forget a teacher who got the attention of one of my children by revealing the trump card of failure. Our youngest, a world-class charmer, did little to develop his intellectual talents but always got by Until Mrs. Stifter.Our son was high-school senior when he had her for English. “He sits in the back of the room talking to his friends.” she told me, “Why don't you move him to the front row? ” I urged, believing the embarrassment would get him to settle down. Mrs. Stifter said, 'I don't move seniors. I flunk (使┅不及格) them. ' Our son's academic life flashed before my eyes. No teacher had ever threatened him. By the time I got home I was feeling pretty good about this .It was a radical approach for these times, but, well, Why not? “She's going to flunk you.” I told my son.I did not discuss it any further. Suddenly English became a priority (头等重要) in his life. He finished out the semester with an A.I know one example doesn't make a case, but at night I see a parade of students who are angry for having been passed along until they could no longer even pretend to keep up. Of average intelligence or better, they eventually quit school, concluding they were too dumb to finish.” I should have been held back,” is a comment I hear f requently. Even sadder are those students who are high-school graduates who say to me after a few weeks of class.” I don’t know how I ever got a high-school diploma.”Passing students who have not mastered the work cheats them and the employers who expect graduates to have basic skills. We excuse this dishonest behavior by saying kids can't learn if they come from terrible environments. No one seems to stop to think that most kids don't put school first on their list unless they perceive something is at risk. They'd rather be sailing.Many students I see at night have decided to make education a priority. They are motivated by the desire for a better job or the need to hang on to the one they've got. They have a healthy fear of failure.People of all ages can rise above their problems, but they need to have a reason to do so. Young people generally don't have the maturity to value education in the same way my adult students value it. But fear of failure can motivate both.46.What is the subject of this essay?A. view point on learningB. a qualified teacherC. the importance of examinationD. the generation gap47.How did Mrs. Sifter get the attention of one of the author’s children?A. flunking himB. moving his seatC. blaming himD. playing card with him48.The author believes that the most effective way for a teacher is toA. purify the teaching environments .B. set up cooperation between teachers and parents.C. hold back student.D. motivate student.49. From the passage we can draw the conclusion that the authors’ attitude toward flunking isA. negativeB. positiveC. biasedD. indifferent50. Judging from the content, this passage is probably written forA. administratorsB. studentsC. teachersD. parentsQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Names have gained increasing importance in the competitive world of higher education. As colleges strive for market share, they are looking for names that project the image they want or reflect the changes they hope to make. Trenton State College, for example, became the College of New Jersey nine years ago when it began raising admissions standards and appealing to students from throughout the state.“All I hear in higher education is, Brand, brand, brand,” said Tim Westerbeck, who specializes in branding and is managing director of Lipman Hearne, a marketing firm based in Chicago that works with universities and other nonprofit organizations. “There has been a sea change over the last 10 years. Marketing used to be almost a dirty word in higher education.”Not all efforts at name changes are successful, of course . In 1997 , the New School for Social Research became New School University to reflect its growth into a collection of eight colleges, offering a list of majors that includes psychology, music ,urban studies and management. But New Yorkers continued to call it the New School .Now, after spending an undisclosed sum on an online survey and a marke ting consultant’s creation of “naming structures.” “brand architecture” and “ identity systems,” the university has come up with a new name: the New School. Beginning Monday, it will adopt new logos (标识)，banners, business cards and even new names for the individual colleges, all to include the words “the New School.”Changes in names generally reveal significant shifts in how a college wants to be perceived. In altering its name from Cal State. Hayward, to Cal State, East Bay, the university hoped to project its expanding role in two mostly suburban countries east of San Francisco.The University of Southern Colorado, a state institution, became Colorado State University at Pucblo two years ago, hoping to highlight many internal changes, including offering more graduate programs and setting higher admissions standards.Beaver College turned itself into Arcadia University in 2001 for several reasons: to break the connection with its past as a women’s college, to promote its growth into a full-fledged(完全成熟的) university and officials acknowledged, to eliminate some joke s about the college’s old name on late-night television and “morning zoo” radio shows.Many college officials said changing a name and image could produce substantial results.

Heavily padded(填塞) from floor to ceiling ,it looked a bit strange. There were almost no windows, but lights along the padded walls illuminated it. Most of the seats had been taken out apart from a few at the back where the young scientists quickly took their places with a look of fear.For 12 months, science students from across the continents had competed to win a place on the flight at the invitation of the European Space Agency .The challenge had been to suggest imaginative experiments to be conducted in weightless conditions.For the next two hours, the flight resembled that of an enormous bird which had lose its reason, shooting upwards towards the heavens before rushing towards Earth. The invention was to achieve weightlessness for a few seconds.The aircraft took off smoothly enough, but any feelings that I and the young scientists had that we were on anything like a scheduled passenger service were quickly dismissed when the pilot put the plane into a 45 degree climb which lasted around 20 seconds. Then the engines cut our and we became weightless. Everything became confused and left or right, up or down no longer had any meaning. After ten seconds of free-fall descent (下降) the pilot pulled the aircraft out of its nosedive. The return of gravity was less immediate than its loss, but was still sudden enough to ensure that some students came down with a bump.Each time the pilot cut the engines and we became weightless, a new team conducted its experiment. First it was the Dutch who wanted to discover how it is that cats always land on their feet. Then the German team who conducted a successful experiment on a traditional building method to see if it could be used for building a future space station. The Americans had an idea to create solar sails that could be used by satellites.After two hours of going up and down in the lane doing their experiments, the predominant feeling was one of excitement rather than sickness. Most of the students thought it was an unforgettable experience and one they would be keen to repeat.56、What did the writer say about the plane?.A、It had no seats.B、It was painted white.C、It had no windows.D、The outside was misleading.57、According to the writer ，how did the young scientists feel before the flight？A、sickB、keenC、nervousD、impatient58、what did the pilot do with the plane after it took off？A、He quickly climbed and then stopped the engines.B、He climbed and then made the plane fall slowly.C、He took off normally and then cut the engines for 20 seconds.D、He climbed and then made the plane turn over.59.Acoording to the passage, the purpose of being weightless was toA. see what conditions are like in spaceB. prepare the young scientists for future work in spaceC. show the judges of the competition what they could doD. make the teams try out their ideas60.this passage was written toA. encourage young people to take up scienceB. describe the process of a scientific competitionC. show scientists what young people can doD. report on a new scientific techniqueSection IV Translation (20 point)Directions: in this section there is a passage in English. Translate the five underlined sentences into Chinese and write your translation on the ANSWER SHEETThe smooth landing of shuttle (航天飞机) Discovery ended a flight that was successful in almost every respect but one: the dislodging of a big chunk of foam, like the one that doomed the Columbia. This flight was supposed to vault the shuttle fleet back into space after a prolonged grounding for repairs. But given the repeat of the very problem that two years of retooling was supposed to resolve, the verdict is necessarily mixed.(61) Once again, the space agency has been forced to put off the flight until it can find a solution to the problem, and no one seems willing to guess how long that may take .The Discovery astronauts performed superbly during their two-week mission, and the shuttle looked better than ever in some respects. (62) Space officials were justifiably happy that so much had gone well, despite daily worries over possible risks. The flight clearly achieved its prime objectives.The astronauts transferred tons of cargo to the international space station, which has been limping along overhead with a reduced crew and limited supplies carried up on smaller Russian spacecraft.(63) They replaced a broken device, repaired another and carted away a load of rubbish that had been left on the station, showing the shuttle can bring full loads back down from space.This was the most scrutinized shuttle flight ever, with the vehicle undergoing close inspection while still in orbit. (64) New sensing and photographic equipment to look for potentially dangerous damage to the sensitive external skin proved valuable .A new back flip maneuver allowed station astronauts to photograph the shuttle's underbelly, and an extra-long robotic arm enabled astronauts see parts of the shuttle that were previously out of sight.(65).The flood of images and the openness in discussing its uncertainties about potential hazards sometimes made it appear that the shuttle was about to fall apart. In the end the damage was clearly tolerable. A much-touted spacewalk to repair the shuttle's skin-the first of its kind- moved anastronaut close enough to pluck out some protruding material with his hand. Preliminary evidence indicates that Discovery has far fewer nicks and gouges than shuttles on previous flights, perhaps showing that improvements to reduce the shedding of debris from the external fuel tank have had some success.Section V Writing (20 points)Directions: in this section .you are asked to write an essay based on the following diagram. Describe the diagram and analyze the possible causes .You should write at least 150 words on the ANSWER SHEET.参考答案：词汇：1——5 D A D C D 6——10 B A D A C11——15 B B D A B16——20 A B C B C 完型填空：21——25 C D B C B26——30 A C D B A31——35 D D A B C36——40 D A C A D阅读理解：41——45 C B C A D 46——50 A A D B C51——55 A C C A C 56——60 A C A D A61）航天部门被迫再次推迟飞行，直到找到问题的解决办法。

I kicked him repeatedly, in a frenzy because he still uttered insults though his lips were frothy with blood. Oh yes, I kicked him! And in my outrage I got out my knife and prepared to slit his throat, right there beneath the lamplight in the deserted street, holding him by the collar with one hand, and opening the knife with my teeth - when it occurred to me that man had not see me, actually; that me, as far as he knew, was in the midst of a walking nightmare!

I was like a drunken man myself, wavering about on weakened legs. Then I was amused. Something in this man\'s thick head has sprung out and beaten him within an inch of his life. I began to laugh at this crazy discovery. Would he have awakened at the point of death? Would Death himself have freed him for wakeful living? But I didn\'t linger. I ran away into the dark, laughing so hard I feared I might rupture myself. The next day I saw his picture in the Daily News, because a captain stating that he has been "mugged".

(40 points)Text 1第4页共18页In spite of“ endless talk of difference,” American society is an amazing machine for homogenizing people. There is“the democratizinguniformity of dress and discourse, and the casualness and absence ofdeference ” characteristic of popular culture. People are absorbed into“ a culture of consumption” launched by the 19th-century departmentstores that offered“ vast arrays of goods in an elegant atmosphere.Instead of intimate shops catering to a knowledgeable elite,” these were stores “anyone could enter, regardless of class or background. Thisturned shopping into a public and democratic act.” The mass media,advertising and sports are other forces for homogenization.Immigrants are quickly fitting into this common culture, which may not be altogether elevating but is hardly poisonous. Writing for theNational Immigration Forum, Gregory Rodriguez reports that today’ s immigration is neither at unprecedented levels nor resistant toassimilation.In1998 immigrants were 9.8 percent of population;in1900,13.6 percent. In the 10 years prior to 1990, 3.1 immigrants arrived forevery 1,000 residents;in the10 years prior to1890, 9.2 for every 1,000.Now, consider three indices of assimilation--language, homeownershipand intermarriage.The 1990 Census revealed that“a majority of immigrants from each of the fifteen most common countries of origin spoke English‘ well’or ‘very well ’after ten years of residence.”The children of immigrantstend to be bilingual and proficient in English.“By the third generation,the original language is lost in the majority of immigrant families.”Hence the description of America as a“ graveyard” for languages. By1996 foreign-born immigrants who had arrived before 1970 had a homeownership rate of75.6percent,higher than the 69.8 percent rate among native-born Americans.Foreign-born Asians and Hispanics“ have higher rates of intermarriage than do U.S.-born whites and blacks. ” By the thirdgeneration, one third of Hispanic women are married to non-Hispanics,and 41 percent of Asian-American women are married to non-Asians.Rodriguez notes that children in remote villages around the world are fans of superstars like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks,yet“ some Americans fear that immigrants living within the United Statesremain somehow immune to the nation’s assimilative power.”Are there divisive issues and pockets of seething anger in America? Indeed.It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularlywhen viewed against America’s turbulent past, today’s social indiceshardly suggest a dark and deteriorating social environment.21. The word “homogenizing ” (Line 2, Paragraph 1) most probably means________.[A]identifying[B]associating[C]assimilating[D]monopolizing22.According to the author, the department stores of the 19th century________.[A]played a role in the spread of popular culture[B]became intimate shops for common consumers[C]satisfied the needs of a knowledgeable elite[D]owed its emergence to the culture of consumption23.The text suggests that immigrants now in the U.S. ________.[A]are resistant to homogenization[B]exert a great influence on American culture[C]are hardly a threat to the common culture[D]constitute the majority of the population24.Why are Arnold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks mentioned in Paragraph 5?[A]To prove their popularity around the world.[B] To reveal the public’s fear of immigrants.[C]To give examples of successful immigrants.[D]To show the powerful influence of American culture.25.In the author ’s opinion, the absorption of immigrants into American society is________.[A]rewarding[B]successful[C]fruitless[D]harmfulText 2Stratford-on-Avon,as we all know, has only one industry -- William Shakespeare -- but there are two distinctly separate and increasingly hostile branches. There is the Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC), whichpresents superb productions of the plays at the Shakespeare MemorialTheatre on the Avon. And there are the townsfolk who largely live offthe tourists who come, not to see the plays, but to look at Anne Hathaway’第6页共18页s Cottage, Shakespeare’s birthplace and the other sights.The worthy residents of Stratford doubt that the theatre adds a penny to their revenue. They frankly dislike the RSC’ s actors, them with their long hair and beards and sandals and noisiness. It’s all deliciouslyironic when you consider that Shakespeare, who earns their living,was himself an actor (with a beard) and did his share of noise-making.The tourist streams are not entirely separate. The sightseers whocome by bus -- and often take in Warwick Castle and Blenheim Palaceon the side -- don ’ t usually see the plays, and some of them are evensurprised to find a theatre in Stratford. However, the playgoers domanage a little sight-seeing along with their playgoing. It is theplaygoers, the RSC contends, who bring in much of the town ’s revenue because they spend the night (some of them four or five nights) pouringcash into the hotels and restaurants. The sightseers can take in everything and get out of town by nightfall.The townsfolk don ’t see it this way and local council does not contribute directly to the subsidy of the Royal Shakespeare Company.Stratford cries poor traditionally. Nevertheless every hotel in townseems to be adding a new wing or cocktail lounge. Hilton is building its own hotel there, which you may be sure will be decorated with Hamlet Hamburger Bars, the Lear Lounge, the Banquo Banqueting Room, and so forth, and will be very expensive.Anyway, the townsfolk can ’t understand why the Royal Shakespeare Companyneeds a subsidy. (The theatre has broken attendance records for three years in a row. Last year its 1,431 seats were 94 percent occupiedall year long and this year they ’ ll do better.) The reason, of course, is thatcosts have rocketed and ticket prices have stayed low.It would be a shame to raise prices too much because it would driveaway the young people who are Stratford’s most attractive clientele.They come entirely for the plays, not the sights. They all seem to lookalike (though they come from all over) -- lean, pointed, dedicated faces, wearing jeans and sandals, eating their buns and bedding down for thenight on the flagstones outside the theatre to buy the 20 seats and 80standing-room tickets held for the sleepers and sold to them whenthe box office opens at 10:30 a.m.26. From the first two paragraphs, we learn that ________.[A] the townsfolk deny the RSC’s contribution to the town’s revenue[B]the actors of the RSC imitate Shakespeare on and off stage[C]the two branches of the RSC are not on good terms[D]the townsfolk earn little from tourism27. It can be inferred from Paragraph 3 that ________.[A] the sightseers cannot visit the Castle and the Palace separately[B]the playgoers spend more money than the sightseers[C]the sightseers do more shopping than the playgoers[D]the playgoers go to no other places in town than the theater28. By saying “Stratford cries poor traditionally”(Line2-3, Paragraph4), the author implies that ________.[A]Stratford cannot afford the expansion projects[B]Stratford has long been in financial difficulties[C]the town is not really short of money[D]the townsfolk used to be poorly paid29.According to the townsfolk, the RSC deserves no subsidy because________.[A]ticket prices can be raised to cover the spending[B]the company is financially ill-managed[C]the behavior of the actors is not socially acceptable[D]the theatre attendance is on the rise30.From the text we can conclude that the author ________.[A]is supportive of both sides[B] favors the townsfolk’s view[C]takes a detached attitude[D]is sympathetic to the RSCText 3When prehistoric man arrived in new parts of the world, somethingstrange happened to the large animals. They suddenly became extinct.Smaller species survived. The large, slow-growing animals were easy game, and were quickly hunted to extinction. Now something similar could be happening in the oceans.That the seas are being overfished has been known for years. What researchers such as Ransom Myers and Boris Worm have shown is just howfast things are changing. They have looked at half a century of data from fisheries around the world. Their methods do not attempt to estimate the actual biomass (the amount of living biological matter)of fish species in particular parts of the ocean, but rather changes in that biomass over time. According to their latest paper published in Nature , the biomassof large predators (animals that kill and eat other animals) in a newfishery is reduced on average by 80% within 15 years of the start of exploitation.In somelong-fished areas,it has halved again since then.Dr.Worm acknowledges that these figures are conservative.One reason for this is that fishing technology has improved. Today’s vessels can find their prey using satellites and sonar,which were not available 50 years ago. That means a higher proportion of what is in the sea isbeing caught,so the real difference between present and past is likelyto be worse than the one recorded by changes in catch sizes.In the early days, too, longlines would have been more saturated with fish. Someindividuals would therefore not have been caught, since no baited hooks would have been available to trap them, leading to an underestimate offish stocks in the past. Furthermore, in the early days of longlinefishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked.That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around now.Dr. Myers and Dr. Wormargue that their work gives a correct baseline, which future managementefforts must take into account.They believe the data support an idea current among marine biologists,that of the “ shifting baseline.” The notion is that people have failed to detect themassive changes which have happened in the ocean because they havebeen looking back only a relatively short time into the past. That matters because theory suggests that the maximum sustainable yield that can becropped from a fishery comes when the biomass of a target species is about 50% of its original levels. Most fisheries are well below that, whichis a bad way to do business.31. The extinction of large prehistoric animals is noted to suggest that________.[A]large animal were vulnerable to the changing environment[B]small species survived as large animals disappeared[C]large sea animals may face the same threat today[D]slow-growing fish outlive fast-growing ones32. We can infer from Dr. Myers and Dr. Worm’s paper that ________.[A]the stock of large predators in some old fisheries hasreduced by 90%[B] there are only half as many fisheries as there were 15 years ago[C]the catch sizes in new fisheries are only 20% of theoriginal amount[D]the number of larger predators dropped faster in newfisheries than in the old33.By saying "these figures are conservative" (Line 1, paragraph 3),Dr. Worm means that ________.[A]fishing technology has improved rapidly[B]the catch-sizes are actually smaller than recorded[C]the marine biomass has suffered a greater loss[D]the data collected so far are out of date34.Dr. Myers and other researchers hold that ________.[A] people should look for a baseline that can work for a longer time[B]fisheries should keep their yields below 50% of the biomass[C]the ocean biomass should be restored to its original level[D]people should adjust the fishing baseline to the changing situation35.The author seems to be mainly concerned with most fisheries ’________.[A]management efficiency[B]biomass level[C]catch-size limits[D]technological applicationText 4Many things make people think artists are weird. But the weirdestmay be this: artists ’only job is to explore emotions, and yet they choose to focus on the ones that feel bad.This wasn’t always so. The earliest forms of art, like painting and music, are those best suited for expressing joy. But somewherefrom the19th century onward, more artists began seeing happiness as meaningless, phony or, worst of all, boring,as we went from Wordsworth ’s daffodilsto Baudelaire’s flowers of evil.You could argue that art became more skeptical of happiness because modern times have seen so much misery. But it ’ s not as if earlier times didn ’t know perpetual war, disaster and the massacre of innocents. The reason, in fact, may be just the opposite: there is too much damn happiness in the world today.After all, what is the one modern form of expression almost completely dedicated to depicting happiness? Advertising. The rise of anti-happy art almost exactly tracks the emergence of mass media, andwith it, a commercial culture in which happiness is not just anideal but an ideology.People in earlier eras were surrounded by reminders of misery.They worked until exhausted, lived with few protections and died young. Inthe West, before mass communication and literacy,the most powerful mass medium was the church,which reminded worshippers that their souls were in danger and that they would someday be meat for worms. Given all this, they did not exactly need their art to be a bummer too.Today the messages the average Westerner is surrounded with are not religious but commercial, and forever happy. Fast-food eaters, newsanchors, text messengers, all smiling, smiling, smiling. Our magazinesfeature beaming celebrities and happy families in perfect homes. Andsince these messages have an agenda -- to lure us to open our wallets-- they make the very idea of happiness seem unreliable. “Celebrate! ” commanded the ads for the arthritis drug Celebrex, before we found out it could increase the risk of heart attacks.But what we forget -- what our economy depends on us forgetting --is that happiness is more than pleasure without pain. The things thatbring the greatest joy carry the greatest potential for loss and disappointment. Today, surrounded by promises of easy happiness,we need art to tell us, as religion once did,Memento mori: remember that you will die, that everything ends, and that happiness comes not in denying this but in living with it. It ’s a message even more bitter than a clove cigarette, yet, somehow, a breath of fresh air.36. By citing the examples of poets Wordsworth and Baudelaire, the authorintends to show that ________.[A]poetry is not as expressive of joy as painting or music[B]art grows out of both positive and negative feelings[C]poets today are less skeptical of happiness[D]artists have changed their focus of interest37.The word “ bummer” (Line 5, paragraph 5) most probably means something________.[A]religious[B]unpleasant[C]entertaining[D]commercial38.In the author’ s opinion, advertising ________.[A]emerges in the wake of the anti-happy art[B]is a cause of disappointment for the general public[C]replaces the church as a major source of information[D]creates an illusion of happiness rather than happiness itself39.We can learn from the last paragraph that the author believes________.[A]happiness more often than not ends in sadness[B]the anti-happy art is distasteful but refreshing[C]misery should be enjoyed rather than denied[D]the anti-happy art flourishes when economy booms40.Which of the following is true of the text?[A]Religion once functioned as a reminder of misery.[B]Art provides a balance between expectation and reality.[C]People feel disappointed at the realities of modern society.[D]Mass media are inclined to cover disasters and deaths.Part BDirections:In the following article,somesentences have been removed.

Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)On the north bank of the Ohio river sits Evansville, Ind., home ofDavid Williams, 52, and of a riverboat casino (a place where gamblinggames are played). During several years of gambling in that casino,Williams, a state auditor earning $35,000 a year, lost approximately$175,000. He had never gambled before the casino sent him a couponfor $20 worth of gambling.He visited the casino, lost the $20 and left. On his second visithe lost $800. The casino issued to him, as a good customer, a "Fun Card", which when used in the casino earns points for meals and drinks, andenables the casino to track the user ’s gambling activities.For Williams, those activities become what he calls "electronic heroin".(41) ________. In 1997 he lost $21,000 to one slot machine in twodays. In March 1997 he lost $72,186. He sometimes played two slot machines at a time, all night, until the boat docked at 5 a.m., then went backaboard when the casino opened at 9 a.m. Now he is suing the casino,charging that it should have refused his patronage because it knew hewas addicted. It did know he had a problem.In March 1998 a friend of Williams ’s got him involuntarily confinedto a treatment center for addictions, and wrote to inform the casino of Williams ’ s gambling problem. The casino included a photo of Williamsamong those of banned gamblers, and wrote to him a“cease admissions”letter. Noting the medical/psychological nature of problem gamblingbehavior, the letter said that before being readmitted to the casino he would have to present medical/psychological information demonstratingthat patronizing the casino would pose no threat to his safety or well-being.(42) ________.The Wall Street Journal reports that the casino has 24 signs warning:“ Enjoy the fun... and always bet with your head, not over it.” Every entrance ticket lists a toll-free number for counseling from the Indiana Department of Mental Health. Nevertheless,Williams’ s suit charges that the casino,knowing he was“ helplessly addicted to gambling,”intentionally worked to“ lure” him to“engage in conduct against his will.” Well.(43) ________.The fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders says “pathological gambling ” involves persistent,recurring and uncontrollable pursuit less of money than of thrill of taking risksin quest of a windfall.(44)________. Pushed by science, or what claims to be science,society is reclassifying what once were considered character flaws ormoral failings as personality disorders akin to physical disabilities.(45)________.Forty-four states have lotteries,29 have casinos,and most of these states are to varying degrees dependent on -- you might say addicted to-- revenues from wagering. And since the first Internet gambling sitewas created in 1995, competition for gamblers’ dollars has become intense. The Oct.28 issue of Newsweek 2 million gamblersreported thatpatronize1,800 virtual casinos every week. With $3.5 billion being lost on Internet wagers this year,gambling has passed pornography as the Web’s most profitable business.[A] Although no such evidence was presented, the casino’ s marketingdepartment continued to pepper him with mailings.And he entered the casino and used his Fun Card without being detected.[B]It is unclear what luring was required,given his compulsive behavior.And in what sense was his will operative?[C] By the time he had lost $5,000 he said to himself that if he couldget back to even, he would quit. One night he won $5,500, but he did not quit.[D] Gambling has been a commonfeature of American life forever, but fora long time it was broadly considered a sin, or a social disease.Nowit is a social policy: the most important and aggressive promoter ofgambling in America is the government.[E] David Williams ’s suit should trouble this gambling nation. But don’t bet on it.[F] It is worrisome that society is medicalizing more and more behavioralproblems, often defining as addictions what earlier,sterner generations explained as weakness of will.[G] The anonymous, lonely, undistracted nature of online gambling isespecially conducive to compulsive behavior.But even if the government knew how to move against Internet gambling, what wouldbe its grounds for doing so?Part CDirections:Is it true that the American intellectual is rejected and considered of no account in his society?I am going to suggest that it is not true. Father Bruckberger told part of the story when he observed that it isthe intellectuals who have rejected America. But they have done more than that. They have grown dissatisfied with the role of intellectual. It isthey, not America, who have become anti-intellectual.First, the object of our study pleads for definition. What is anintellectual? 46) I shall define him as an individual who has electedas his primary duty and pleasure in life the activity of thinking in aSocratic( 苏格拉底 )way about moral problems.He explores such problems consciously,articulately,and frankly,first by asking factual questions,then by asking moral questions,finally by suggesting action which seems appropriate in the light of the factual and moral information which he has obtained.47)His function is analogous to that of a judge, who must accept the obligation of revealing in as obvious a manner aspossible the course of reasoning which led him to his decision.This definition excludes many individuals usually referred to asintellectuals--the average scientist,for one.48)I have excluded him because, while his accomplishments may contribute to the solution ofmoral problems,he has not been charged with the task of approaching any but the factual aspects of those problems. Like other human beings, he encounters moral issues even in the everyday performance of his routine duties--he is not supposed to cook his experiments,manufacture evidence,or doctor his reports.49) But his primary task is not to think about the moral code which governs his activity,any more than a businessman is expected to dedicate his energies to an exploration ofrules of conduct in business. During most of his waking life he will take his codefor granted, as the businessman takes his ethics.The definition also excludes the majority of teachers, despite thefact that teaching has traditionally been the method whereby many intellectuals earn their living. 50) They may teach very well and morethan earn their salaries, but most of them make little or no independent reflections on human problems which involve moral judgment.This description even fits the majority of eminent scholars. Being learnedin some branch of human knowledge is one thing, living in "public andillustrious thoughts,” as Emerson would say, is something else.Section III WritingPart A51.
