Fortunately, with the society commercializing and competition becoming fierce, a substantial number of people are paying due attention to it.It is apparent that we are supposed to be aware of the importance of team spirit and communication, especially in workplace.Hardly can anyone achieve success in his career without the assistance of his colleagues and communication with his partners. As grows increasingly fierce, we must defeat our rivals through powerful team work. Take basketball star Yao Ming for an example. He can slam the duck smartly because all his teammates contribute more or less to his outstanding performance.

Read the passage and answer the questions. Then mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1Questions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:Some years ago the captain of a ship was very interested in medicine. He always took medicine books to sea and liked to talk about different diseases.One day a lazy sailor on his ship pretended to be ill. He lay on his bunk (铺) and groaned as if he were very sick. The captain came to see him and was very pleased to have a patient to look after. He told the man to rest for a few days and made the other sailors do his work. Three days later another sailor pretended that he had something wrong with his chest. Once more the captain looked in his medical books and told “sick” man to have a rest.The other sailors were very angry because they had more work to do. The patients had the best food and laughed at their friends when the captain was not looking. At last the mate (船长副手) decided to cure the “sick” men. He mixed up some soap, soot (烟灰), glue (胶水) and other unpleasant things. Then he obtained permission from the captain to give his medicine to the “sick” men. When they tasted the medicine, they really did feel ill. It was so horrible that one of the patients jumped out of hi bunk, ran up on desk and climbed the highest mast on the ship. He did not want any more medicine.The mate told both of the men that they must take the medicine every half an hour, night and day. This soon cured them. They both said they felt better and wanted to start word again. The captain realized that the men tried to deceive him so he made them work very hard for the rest of the voyage.1. The first sailor pretended to be ill because he wanted to .A. test the captain’s knowledge of medicineB. be free from workC. have the best food on the shipD. play a joke on his friends2.

A sudden Cure.B. Two Patients.C. Captain and Sailors.D. A Difficult Voyage.Passage 2Questions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:When aluminum was first produced about a hundred and fifty years ago, it was so difficult to separate form the ores in which it was found that its price was higher than that of gold. The price remained high until a new process was discovered for refiningthe metal with the aid of electricity approximately three quarters of a century later. The new method was so much cheaper that aluminum because practical for many purposes, one of which was making pots and pans.Aluminum is lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different forms. By mixing it with other metals, scientists have been able to produce a variety of alloys, some of which have the strength of steel but weigh only one third as much.Today, the uses of aluminum are innumerable. Perhaps its most important use is in transportation. Aluminum is found in the engine of automobiles, in the hulls of boats. It is also used in many parts of airplanes. In fact, the huge “airbus” planes would probably never have been produced if aluminum did not exist. By making vehicles lighter in weight aluminum has greatly reduced the amount of fuel needed to move them, Aluminum is also being used extensively in the building industry in some countries.Since aluminum is such a versatile (多用的) metal, it is fortunate that bauxite (铝土矿), which is one of its chief sources, is also one of the earth’s most plentiful substances. As the source of aluminum is almost inexhaustible, we can expect that more and more uses will be found for this versatile metal.6. The price of aluminum was sharply reduced when people discovered a new refining process with the aid of .A. windB. solar energyC. hydraulic powerD. electricity7. Aluminum is .A. lightweight, rustproof but not easily shaped into different formsB. heavyweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsC. lightweight, rustproof and easily shaped into different formsD. lightweight and easily shaped into different forms but it is easy to become rusty8.

The features of aluminum and its functions.B. The process of aluminum.C. The discovery of aluminum.D. The promising future of aluminum.Passage 3Questions 11 to 15 are based on the following passage:The idea of a special day to honor mothers was first put forward in America in 1907. two years later a woman, Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, in the state of Washington proposed a similar day to honor the head of the family—the father. Her mother died when she was very young, and her father brought her up. She loved her father very much.In response to Mrs. Dodd’s idea that same year—1909, the state governor of Washington proclaimed (宣布) the third Sunday in June Father’s Day. The idea was officially approved by President Woodrow Wilson in 1916. in 1924, President Calvin Coolidge recommended national observance of the occasion “to establish more intimate (亲密) relations between fathers and their children, and to impress upon fathers the full measure of their obligations.” The red or white rose is recognized as the official Father’s Day flower.Father’s Day took longer to establish on a national scale than Mother’s Day, but as the idea grained popularity, tradesmen and manufacturers began to see the commercial possibilities. They encouraged sons and daughters to honor their fathers with small thank-you presents, such as a tie or pair of socks, as well as by sending greeting cards.During the Second World War, American servicemen stationed in Britain began to request Father’s Day greeting cards to send home. This generated a response with British card publishers. Though at first the British public was slow to accept this rather art ificial day, it’s now well celebrated in Britain on the third Sunday in June in much the same way as in America.Father’s Day seems to be much less important as occasion than the Mother’s Day. Not many of the children offer their fathers some presents. But the American fathers still think they are much better fated than the fathers of many other countries, who have not even a day for their sake in name only.11. When did Father’s Day officially begin to have national popularity?A. 1907B. 1909C. 1916D. 192412. Who first started the idea of holding the Father’s Day?A. Mrs. John Bruce DoddB. Mrs. John Bruce’s MotherC. The government of Washington.D. Some businessmen.13. What flower will be popular on Father’s Day?A. LilyB. Water LilyC. Red rose or white roseD. Sunflower.14. Which statement is true, a according to this passage?A. It took even longer for Mother’s Day to gain national popularity.B. The businessmen helped to make Father’s Day popular.C. Father’s Day is only celebrated in America.D. Father’s Day is only a trick of the businessmen to make money.15. What was the first reaction of the British publishing towards Father’s Day?A. They thought highly of it and accepted it at once.B. They just accepted it at once without any hesitation.C. They just thought it a joke.D. They thought it was too artificial and took a long time to accept.Passage 4Questions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:Culture shock is an occupational disease (职业病) for people who have been suddenly transplanted abroad.Culture shock is caused by the anxiety that results from losing all familiar signs and symbols of social intercourse. Those signs are as following: when to shake hands and what to say when meet people, when and how to give tips, how to make purchases, when to accept and refuse invitations, when to take statements seriously and when not. These signs, which may be words, gestures, facial expressions, or customs, are acquired by all of us in the course of growing up and as much a part of our culture as the language we speak or the beliefs we accept. All of us depend on hundreds of these signs for our peace of mind and day-to-day efficiency, but we do not carry most at the level of conscious awareness.Now when an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar signs are removed. No matter how broadminded or full of good will you may be a series of supports have been knocked from under you, followed by a feeling of frustration. When suffering from culture shock people first reject the environment which caused discomfort. The ways of the host country are bad because they make us feel bad. Whenforeigners in a strange land get together in complain about the host country its people, you can be sure that they are suffering from culture shock.16. According to the passage, culture shock is .A. an occupational disease of foreign peopleB. may lead to very serious symptomsC. actually not a diseaseD. incurable17. According to the passage, culture shock result from .A. the sudden change of social atmosphere and customsB. the sudden change of our daily habitsC. the sudden loss of our own signs and symbolsD. the discomfort that we feel when faced with a foreigner18. Which one of the following may not be a symptom of culture shock?A. You don’t know how to express your gratitude.B. You don’t know how to greet other people.C. You suddenly forget what a word means.D. You don’t understand why a foreigner shrugs.19. According to the passage, how would a person who stays abroad most probably react when he is frustrated by the culture shock?A. He is most likely to refuse to absorb the strange environment at first.B. He is really to accept the change and adapt himself to the new environment.C. Although he takes the culture difference for granted, he still doesn’t know how to do with it.D. He may begin to hate the people or things around him.20. The main idea of this passage is that .A. culture shock is an occupational diseaseB. culture shock is caused by the anxiety of living in a strange cultureC. culture shock has peculiar symptomsD. it is very hard to cope with life in a new settingQuestions 16 to 20 are based on the following passage:In a family where the roles of men and women are not sharply separated and where many household tasks are shared to a greater or lesser extent, notions of male superiority are hard to maintain. The pattern of sharing in tasks and in decisions makes for equality and this in turn leads to further sharing. In such a home, the growing boy and girl learn to accept equality more easily than did their parents and to prepare more fully for participation in a world characterized by cooperation rather by the “battle of the sexes”.If the process goes too far and man’s role is regarded as less important—and that has happened in some cases—we are as badly off as before, only in reverse.It is time to reassess the role of the man in the American family. We are getting a little tired of “Monism”—but we don’t want to exchange it for a “neo-Popism”. What we need, rather, is the recognition that bringing up children involves a partnership of equals. There are sings that psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, and specialists on the family are becoming more aware of the part men play and that they have decided that women should not receive all the credit—nor the blame. We have almost given up saying that a woman’s place is in the home. We are beginning, however, to analyze man’s place in the home and to insist that he does have a place on it. Nor is that place irrelevant to the healthy development of the child.The family is a co-operative enterprise for which it is difficult to lay down rules, because each family needs to work out its own ways for solving its own problems.Excessive authoritarianism (命令主义) has unhappy consequences, whether it wears skirts or trousers, and the ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is pertinent (相关的,切题的) not only to a healthy democracy, but also to a healthy family.16. The ideal of equal rights and equal responsibilities is .A. fundamental to a sound democracyB. not pertinent to healthy family lifeC. responsible for MonismD. what we have almost given up17. The danger in the sharing of household tasks by the mother and the father is that .A. the role of the father may become an inferior oneB. the role of the mother may become an inferior oneC. the children will grow up believe that life is a battle of sexesD. sharing leads to constant arguing18. The author states that bringing up children .A. is mainly the mother’s jobB. belongs among the duties of the fatherC. is the job of schools and churchesD. involves a partnership of equals19. According to the author, the father’s role in the home is .A. minor because he is an ineffectual parentB. irrelevant to the healthy development of the childC. pertinent to the healthy development of the childD. identical to the role of the child’s mother20. With which of the following statements would the author be most likely to agree?A. A healthy, co-operative family is a basic ingredient of a healthy society.B. Men are basically opposed to sharing household chores.C. Division of household responsibilities is workable only in theory.D. A woman’s place is always in the home.Part II Vocabulary and Structure (共40小题,每小题1分,共40分)Directions: In this part there are forty incomplete sentences. Each sentence is followed by four choices.

LIGO was a masterpiece of21st⁃century engineering and science, says James Evans,a sociologist at the University of Chicago who studies the history of science. But it was perhaps the most conservative experiment in history.It tested a100⁃year⁃old hypothesis.[B] Big science, of which LIGO is a prime example,is becoming more common.Funding agenciesare channeling more money toward ever larger teams working on grand projects such as cataloging the diversity of our cells or sequencing the genomes of all species.There s even a growing field of meta⁃research dedicated to studying how teams work the science of team science.[C]Some projects require these large teams,and three members of the LIGO team eventually won aNobel Prize.But the comparative neglect of small teams and solo researchers is a problem,Evans says,because they produce very different kinds of work.He collaborated with his colleague Lingfei Wu to look at more than65million scientific papers,patents,and software projects from the past six decades.In every recent decade and in almost every field,Wu s analysis found,small teams are far more likely to introduce fresh,disruptive ideas that take science and technology in radically new directions.[D] Big teams take the current frontier and exploit it, Evans says. Theywring(拧)the towel.They get that last ounce of possibility out of yesterday s ideas,faster than anyone else.But small teams fuel the future,generating ideas that,if they succeed,will be the source of big⁃team development.[E]That runs counter to the usual thinking that large teams,which are typically better funded andwork on more visible topics,are the ones that push the frontiers of science, says Staša Milojevi'c,who studies information metrics in science at Indiana University Bloomington.She recently found a similar pattern by analyzing the titles of20million scientific papers and showing that bigger teams work on a relatively small slice of topics in a field.Other scientists have made similar points,but what Evans describes as a Go teams! attitude still persists.The results of the new analysis should temper(使变淡)some of that enthusiasm for large teams and demonstrate that there may be a tipping point after which their benefits decline, says Erin Leahey from the6㊃6㊀University of Arizona,who has previously written about the overlooked costs of collaboration.[F]The new analysis is based on the ways in which researchers cite past work.For example,whenscientists cite Einstein s groundbreaking1915papers on general relativity,they tend not to refer back to the papers thatEinsteinhimselfcited. They see it as a conceptually new direction that s distinct from the things on which it built, Evans says.But if scientists think that something is anincremental(逐渐的)improvement,they ll tell the whole story in the references. For example,a1995paper describing a long⁃theorized state of matter called a Bose⁃Einstein condensate is almost always cited together with the papers in which the physicist Satyendra Nath Bose and Einstein predicted the stuff s existence.[G]Wu quantified these differences using a disruption score, originally created by otherresearchers to measure the innovativeness of inventions.Wu showed that it works well for scientific research.When ranked by their scores,papers that describe Nobel Prize⁃winning work appeared in the top2percent,as did those chosen by scientists who were asked to name the most disruptive papers in their field.Reviews that summarize earlier work are in the bottom half of the rankings,while the original studies they re based on appear in the top quarter.It s asimple yet brilliant method,especially because it works across data sources as diverse as papers,patents,and software,says Satyam Mukherjee of the Indian Institutes of Management.[H]Having tested this score in various ways to show that it s valid,Wu used it to show that smallteams produce markedly more disruptive work than large ones.That s true even for patents, which are innovative by definition.It s true for highly cited work and poorly cited work.It s true in every decade from the1950s to the2010s.It s true in fields ranging from chemistry to social sciences.[I]So why are small teams more disruptive?It s possible that they do more theoretical work,whilebig teams(such as LIGO)are needed to test the resulting theories,but Evans and his colleagues couldn t find any evidence for this in their data.Another possibility:The most groundbreaking scientists prefer working in small teams.But Evans doesn t buy that,either.Even when the same people move from small teams to larger ones,he says,they end up doing less disruptive and more incremental science.[J]Instead,he and his colleagues found that large teams tend to build on recent,prominent work, while small teams probe more deeply into the past,drawing inspiration from older ideas that may have long been ignored.(Evans didn t use a fixed definition of small or large, but most of his analyses compared teams ranging from one to10people;some scientists might consider a 10⁃person team to be on the small side.)At first,Evans was surprised by that difference;surely, large teams have more eyeballs and more collective memory?But he now suspects that scientists on large teams also argue and interfere with one another,and that they re more likely to find6㊃7㊀common ground in yesterday s rge teams also require lots of funding,which makes them more pressured to pay the bills and drives them toward safer work. What does a big movie⁃production studio bet on:Slumdog Millionaire or Transformers9? he asks.[K]But small teams also pay a heavy cost.Their disruptive work has no ready⁃made audience,and is less obviously relevant to their peers.As Evans and his colleagues found,such work takes much longer to be recognized and cited.Even if it eventually influences larger teams,as it often does, enough time passes that other researchers are less likely to cite the original,disruptive work.[L]You Na Lee,who studies scientific innovation at the National University of Singapore,says that research teams are now effectively behaving like firms,which also tend to be more disruptive at a small size. This study is evidence that the ecology of science and the ecology of innovation are becoming very similar, she says.The big difference is that the business world actively encourages entrepreneurship and small start⁃ups.That s not true for science,but unconditionally allocating pots of government grants for small wild spirits can be a bold policy move, she says.[M]But Evans cautions that money won t work in isolation.When he and his colleagues analyzed funding trends from2004and2014,they found that when small teams were funded by top government agencies such as the National Science Foundation,they were no more likely to produce disruptive work than large teams.Something about the current funding environment seems to strip small teams of their natural advantages,forcing them to behave like big ones. It s not that we can just shove money in their direction, Evans says.[N]Still,he argues that agencies must find better ways of encouraging small teams.They don t just do different kinds of science,but they create work that large teams then build upon.Disenfranchise them,and you destabilize the foundations upon which big science rests. In10 years,we ll be wondering where all the big ideas are, Evans says. Some people will wonder if science is slowing down and we ve eaten all the low⁃hanging fruit.And the answer will be yes, because we ve only built engines that do that.36.It s found that Nobel Prize⁃winning papers fell within the top2percent of the most disruptivepapers,while review articles were in the lower half of the rankings.37.It is a conventional belief that large teams advance the frontier of scientific development.38.Big teams tend to build on more recent,popular ideas,while small ones reach further into the pastfor promising ideas.39.In the current funding environment,small teams would be less disruptive once they get funded bytop government agencies.6㊃8㊀40.A new analysis of over65million papers,patents,and software projects found that small teamsproduce more disruptive and innovative research than big ones.41.In the context of big science,funding agencies prefer larger teams over smaller ones.42.If we are not serious about supporting and nurturing small teams,it s possible that science willslow down in the near future.rge teams are more sensitive to the risk of failure,because they are under greater pressure tosecure funding streams and success to pay the bills.pared with work by big teams,that by small teams has to wait much longer to be accepted.45.Evans believes that even a most pioneering scientist s disruptiveness will drop as he moves from asmall team to a larger one.SectionCDirections:Thereare2passagesinthissection.Eachpassageisfollowedbysomequestionsorunfinishedstatements.ForeachofthemtherearefourchoicesmarkedA),B),C)andD).YoushoulddecideonthebestchoiceandmarkthecorrespondingletteronAnswerSheet2withasinglelinethroughthecentre.PassageOneQuestions46to50arebasedonthefollowingpassage.Should college majors be a thing of the past?That idea received a fresh airing when author Jeffrey Selingo suggested that college majors limit students from developing the skills they need to be effective in today s digital economy.He cites examples of innovations and radical practices at some colleges and universities to boost his case.But in the most recent volume of How College Affects Students:21st Century Evidence that College Work, the authors found overwhelming support that college majors are associated with many positive educational outcomes,such as content mastery and critical thinking.The authors also found that college majors are related to earning more money over a lifetime.Even more compelling is how graduates from different majors fare in the labor pared to students who find a job outside of their selected major,those who land a job closely related to their major field of study are much more likely to report higher rates of employment,job satisfaction and earnings over time.What remains unknown is precisely why the college major plays such an important role in helping students succeed.What does a college major represent?Does a college major signify exposure to curricula and practices that bring students together based on shared academic interests? Without good answers to these questions,colleges and universities must be careful not to abandon6㊃9㊀college majors pletely ending college majors may invite a host of problems.Ending college majors assumes that institutions have the know⁃how and ability to bring students together based on academic interests.To distance themselves from majors,some institutions are attempting to restructure learning environments in a way that brings different disciplines together.Yet, there s not much evidence to suggest that students are learning more as a result of these efforts.Ending college majors also assumes that students are developmentally ready to design their undergraduate experiences in ways that will maximize learning and help them get a job.Selingo suggests that educators give students an opportunity in their first year or preferably starting through online exploration the summer before to find the appropriate fit for their interests. Theoretically,this idea sounds great.However,it flies in the face of the findings related to this generation of college students.The reality is most students are not developmentally ready to identify their interests,let alone design their own course of study.Furthermore,ending college majors may push off the inevitable need for structured discipline⁃specific training until graduate school.This subsequently increases the costs of education.The evidence is clear:Going to college helps students master content related to their major field of study.

2019六级翻译考前模拟演练二
实战演练:
【汉译英3】我整整一生都处于对武术的痴迷之中。

但是当我搬
到一个有功夫俱乐部的城市时,我才真正体会到了武术的魅力,同时
也完全理解了为什么人们称它为一种艺术。

它是一种战斗同时也是在
实行一种自我防卫,这其实也达到了让你更加了解自己的身体,从而
使它变得更增强壮和健康的目的。

功夫是一门完整的哲学,而且是中
国文化的重要组成部分。

当我开始练习功夫的时候,我才意识到它有
多么地困难,哪怕是简单的一踢或者一打就需要几个月的时间去练习。

但是我太爱它了!一个全新的世界正向我敞开它的大门。

【参考译文】My whole life I’ve been interested in
martial arts. But it was only when I moved to another city where there was a Kungfu club, that I really enjoyed it and fully understood why they call it an art. It is fighting and defending yourself, but it also understanding your body more, making it stronger and healthier. Kungfu is a whole
philosophy and is a big part of Chinese culture. When I
started to practice kungfu, I realized how difficult it was and a simple kick or punch demanded months of practice. But I loved it! A whole new world was opening to me.
【汉译英4】来自利物浦大学的科学家、心理学家和英文教授发现,阅读莎士比亚及其他古典作家的作品对心智发展大有裨益。

这些
作品能够抓住读者的注意力,引发读者的自我反思。

研究还发现,阅
读书籍,尤其是诗歌,能够增加与“自传体记忆”相关的大脑右半球
的活动频率,有助于读者根据阅读内容对个人经历实行反思和重新评价。

学者们表示,这意味着阅读古典作品比阅读自助类书籍更有协助。

【参考译文】Scientists, psychologists and English academics at Liverpool University have found that reading the
works of Shakespeare and other classical writers has a beneficial effect on the mind, catches the reader’s attention and triggers moments of self-reflection. The research also found that reading poetry, in particular, increases activity in the right hemisphere of the brain, an area concerned with “autobiographical memory”, helping the reader to reflect on and reappraise their own experiences in light of what they have read. The academics said this meant the classics were more useful than self-help books.。
