2019-2020(2) 2019级四级班基础英语2期中试卷答案及评分标准

南京信息工程大学2019-2020学年第一学期2019级四级班基础英语2期中试卷答案及评分标准Part I Writing （15分）SampleWith the rapid development of science and technology in modern times, an increasing number of people prefer studying online to attending school. What will happen if e-learning prevails and even replaces classroom learning?For one thing, more people can access high-quality courses globally, such as Harvard free online courses. Therefore, even rural people will also get access to abundant and updated knowledge. For another,people can decide when and where they take the online courses much more freely. Thus they will no longer be bothered by problems like transportation and accommodation. As a result, learning cost will be so largely decreased that people can afford to apply for more courses they are interested in.However, for people who have bad self-discipline and learning habits, it is difficult to commit themselves to study. They will fall behind and actually learn little since nobody supervises them. What's worse, e-learning can't offer human interaction in real life. It is due to the lack of face-to-face interaction with teachers and classmates that people will feel isolated and gradually lose basic social skills.To sum up, that more people turn to e-learning will have both advantages and disadvantages. In my opinion, e-learning should be seen as a complement but not a replacement of traditional classes.解析：这是一篇典型的观点阐释性作文，要求考生就在线学习发表自己的看法，并提示考生想象一下：如果越来越多的人在网上学习而不再去学校上学，未来将会怎么样。

Everybody knows that the nicest men (1) ________become monsters behind the wheel. It is all very well, again,to have a tiger in the tank, but to have one in the driver’sseat is another matter altogether.

The samegoes for encouraging old ladies to cross the road wherever andwhenever they care to. It always amazes me that the highways arenot covered with the dead bodies of these grannies.A veteran driver, whose manners are faultless, told me itwould help if motorists learnt to filter correctly into trafficstreams once at time without causing the total blockages that (10) ________give rise to bad temper. Unfortunately, modern motorists can’t evenlearn to drive, let alone master the subtler aspects of roadmanship.Years ago the experts warned us that the car-owner-ship explosionwould demand a lot more give-and-take from all road users. It is hightime for all of us to take this message to heart.IV. Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: There are four passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinishedstatements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Passage 1Once upon a time, in the country of Half Mad , which was cut off from the western end of Europe in prehistoric times to prevent the inhabitants from injuring any but themselves, the King fell ill.As he had always been well spoken of, and had established very kindly relations with his subjects , his illness caused a great increase of worries about his family.All the married women saw in the Queen a wife anxious about her husband, with a sick-bed to provide for. All the men saw in the King a fellow-man suffering as they themselves had suffered or might at any moment have to suffer. For sickness is a great Leveller, and consequently a great breeder of sympathy, unlike that Impostor Death, who gives a pompous eminence to even the humblest.And thus, with sympaythy added to loyalty, the nation was in such a state of concern about the King as had never before arisen within living memory. Naturally , the case being one of dangerous illness , it was to the doctors that the nation turned for help and reassurance.1. According the passage（A）the inhabitants injured themselves.(B) the inhabitants injured the others .(C) the inhabitants injured none of the others.(D) the inhabitants injured everybody.2. What can we infer from the passage?(A)All of the people in the country loved the king.(B)All of the people in the country disliked the king.(C)All of the people in the country hated the king.(D)All of the people in the country had a prejudice against the king.3.According to the passage(A) sickness is a great lover..(B) sickness is a great enemy.. (C) sickness is a great friend..(D) sickness is a great equalitarian.4. Which statement of the following is true?(A)The Queen was worried about her husband’s health.(B)The Queen was worried about her husband’s fortune.(C)The Queen was worried about her husband’s reputation.(D)The Queen was worried about her husband’s political power.5. From the text we can infer(A)the people were not sympathetic and loyal.(B)the people were sympathetic and disloyal.(C)the people were neither sympathetic nor loyal.(D)the people were sympathetic and loyal.Passage 2Now in the country of the Half Mad the doctors had long before this taken the place of the medieval church. There was a law that when a man was ill he must on pain of punishment send for his parish priest; but this law had been so long disregarded that only a few specialists in church history knew of its existence. Its place had been taken by a law that when there was sickness in the house the doctor must be sent for, and that if the doctor said that any part of a sick child’s body must be cut out its parents must have that done at once whether they approved or not, or else be haled before a magistrate and heavily fined, or should the child have died, committed for trial for having killed it.To such powers as this were added extraordinary privileges. For instance, doctors were licensed to commit murder with impunity, provided they did it either by in such a manner that the victim did not die until he or shehad been put to bed. Not only was no inquest held and no indictment brought against the doctor, but he was actually paid for his labor, and sometimes invited to the funeral.6. Now in the country of the Half Mad(A) the doctors had long before this got rid of the medieval church.(B) the doctors had long before this replaced the medieval church.(C) the doctors had long before this disliked the medieval church.(D) the doctors had long before this respected the medieval church.7. According to the passage(A) the doctor could cut out any part of a sick child’s body freely.(B) the doctor could cut out any part of a sick child’s body with the permissions of the sick child.(C) the doctor could cut out any part of a sick child’s body with its parents’ permissions .(D) the doctor could not cut out any part of a sick child’s body with its parents’ permissions .8. The doctor(A) was actually paid for his labor, and sometimes invited to the funeral.(B) got nothing for his labor, but sometimes invited to the funeral.(C) got nothing for his labor, but never invited to the funeral.(D) was just invited to the funeral.9. The doctor(A) enjoyed no priviledge.(B) enjoyed much priviledge.(C) enjoyed little priviledge.(D) was poor.10.What did the doctor often do?(A)He often killed the sick.(B) He often visited the sick.(C)He often helped the sick.(D) He often cursed the sick.Passage3“In his mode of delineating natural objects Shakespeare is curiously opposed to Milton. The latter ，who was still by temperament ，and a school master by trade，selects a beautiful object ， put it straight out before him and his readers， and accumulates upon it all the learned imagery of a thousand years：Shakespeare glances at it and says something of his own ：it is not our intention to say that， as a describer of the external world ， Milton is inferior； in set description we rather think that he was the better. We only wish to contrast the mode in which the delineation is effected. One is like an artist who dashes off any number of picturesque sketches at any moment； the other like a man who has lived at Rome and has undergone a through training ，and by deliberate and conscious effort， after a long study of the best masters， reduces a few great pictures.”11. In his mode of delineating natural objects(A) Shakespeare is againnst Milton.(B) Shakespeare is for Milton.(C) Shakespeare dislikes Milton.(D) Shakespeare is quite different from Milton.12. Milton was(A) humous by temperament.(B) lovable by temperament.(C) hot by temperament.(D) quiet by temperament.13. As a describer of the external world，Milton is(A) superior.(B) a failure.(C)) is poor.(D) inferior.14. Milton lived(A) at Rome.(B) in Britain.(C) in Italy.(D) in Germony.15. According to the passage(A) Milton is more gifted than Shakespeare.(B) Shakespeare is more gifted than Milton.(C) Milton is more knowledgeable than Shakespeare.(D) Milton is more serious than Shakespeare. Passage 4A history of the criticism of George Bernard Shaw (1856-1950) would reveal that there has never been a consensus about the ultimate value of his dramatic work or about the efficacy of his opinions. He is generally considered to be the greatest playwright of the English-speaking world in the twentieth century, yet detractors insist that his "drama of ideas" led to a theatrical dead end and that the ideas themselves belong to an age, not to all time. Shaw began writing in the 1870s and continued writing to the end of his long life. His first novel was written in 1879; his last play was written more than 70 years later, in 1950. Few literary figures of the twentieth century have attracted more critical attention.16. Critics completely agreed with(A) the ultimate value of Bernard Shaw’s dramatic work or about the efficacy of his opinions.(B) the ultimate value of Bernard Shaw’s dramatic work or about the efficacy of his opinions.(C) the ultimate value of Bernard Shaw’s dramatic work or about the efficacy of his opinions.(D) the ultimate value of Bernard Shaw’s dramatic work or about the efficacy of his theories.17. Bernard Shaw was well known for(A) his novels.(B) his poems.(C) his essays.(D) his plays.18. Bernard Shaw’s "drama of ideas", according to thedetractors,(A) led to a theatrical dead end.(B) led to a good theatrical end.(C) led to no theatrical end.(D) were poor.19.How many literary figures of the twentieth century haveattracted more critical attention than Bernard Shaw?(A) A few.(B)Many.(C)Not A few(D) Few20. Shaw wrote for(A) pleasue.(B) a while.(C) nothing.(D) almost his whole life.V. Translation (25 points)Directions: translate the following Chinese text into English微弱的曙光终于出现了，困乏的漫漫长夜到了尽头。

And animals accustomed to cold climates will die if they are moved to the tropics. Many plants, too, will die if they are removed from the place where they normally grow and aretransplanted into an unfamiliar soil. Almost every species is adapted to life in a particular place by its organs and their functions and by its permanent habits. The specialized adaptation has great advantages. For it enables many organisms to survive under different conditions.It also has disadvantages, for it means that the life of most species is controlled by local conditions. Living things are not scattered over the earth at random; most species have definite habits for living places. Ecology is the study of how organisms live in their environment. This means finding out how an organism survives and reproduces in certain surroundings. By environment we mean not only the soil and the climate but also the living things of the same species and other species, plant or animal. Most living things are slaves to their environment. Some can alter certain features of their environment to suit themselves; a beaver (海狸), for example, can make ponds by building dams; many birds and insects can build elaborate nests to provide shelter for their young. But these skills are restricted and highly specialized. Most organisms must adapt their bodies to fit in with their surroundings, and since they can adapt only for particular surroundings, they are found only in places where they can live successfully with the least effort.Plants find these favorable places by trial and errors. The wind carriestheir seeds and spores (芽孢) great distances. If the seeds land in a favorable environment they grow and reproduce. If they are deposited in an unfavorable environment they die. Animals, on the other hand, search until they find a favorable environment.1.The main idea of this passage can be summarized as: ____.A) Different habits of animals and plantsB) Living things and their surroundingsC) Plants and animals: slaves of their surroundingsD) Animals' ability to adapt themselves to their surroundings2. What is meant by adaptation?A) The ability of living things to survive in a particular place under difficultconditions.B) The control of most species of living things by local conditions.C) The ability of living things to get familiar with their surroundings.D) The permanent habits of most living things.3 Living things can adapt themselves to their surroundings mainly through ____.A) their organs and the organs' specific functionsB) their specialized permanent habitsC) their least effort in living conditionsD) Both A and B.4. Animals are different from plants mainly in that ____.A) they can more or less alter their surroundingsB) their organs are highly specialized to their surroundingsC) they are looking for a favorable environment for their survivalD) they usually have their own local living conditions5. Implied but not stated: ____.A) Animals are not completely restricted or confined to their surroundingB) Plants are completely confined to their surroundingsC) Surroundings sometimes can easily be altered by animalsD) The specialized adaptation is very important for animals, plants as well as human beings Passage 2One thing the tour books don't tell you about London is that 2,000 of its residents are foxes. They ran away from the city about two centuries ago after developers and pollution moved in. But now that the environment is cleaner, the foxes have come home."The number and variety of wild animals in urban areas is increasing," says Gomer Jones. A survey of the wildlife in New York's Central Park last year counted 14 species of mammals (哺乳动物). A similar survey conducted in the 1890s counted only five species.Several changes have brought wild animals to the cities. Foremost is that air and water quality in many cities have improved as a result of the 1970s pollution-control efforts. Meanwhile, rural areas have been built up, leaving many animals on the edges of suburbs. In addition, urban wildlife refuges (庇护所) have beencreated. The Greater London Council last year spent $750,000 to buy land to build 10 permanent wildlife refuges in the city. As a result, many birds are now living in the city. For peregrine falcons (游隼) cities are actually safer than rural cliff dwellings. By 1970 the birds had died out east of the Mississippi because of the DDT that had made their eggs too thin to support life. That year, scientist Tom Cade of Cornell University began raising the birds for release in cities, for cities afforded plenty of food.Cities can attract wild animals without turning them harmful. The trick is tocreate habitats where they can be self-sufficient but still be seen and appreciated. Such habitats can even be functional. In San Francisco, the l ocal government is testing different kinds of rainwater control basins to see not only which onesretain the cleanest water but which will attract the most birds.1. The passage is primarily concerned with ____.A) wildlife returning to large citiesB) foxes returning to LondonC) wild animals living in zoosD) a survey of wildlife in New York2 It can be inferred from the passage that ____.A) Londoners are putting more and more wild animals into their zoosB) Londoners are happy to see wild animals return to their cityC) Londoners are trying to move wild animals back to the countrysideD) Londoners have welcomed the wild birds, but found foxes a nuisance3. According to the passage, the number of species of wildlife in New York's Central Park ____.A) is slowly decreasingB) competes favorably with other citiesC) is on the same level as beforeD) has more than doubled in the twentieth century4. Which of the following is NOT a reason that wildlife is returning to the cities ?A) Air and water quality has improved in the cities.B) Wildlife is appreciated in the cities.C) Food is plentiful in the cities.D）The pollution is worse in the cities.5. The word "habitat" (Sentence 2, Paragraph 4) here means ____.A) a building for keeping wild animalsB) a garden for growing plantsC) a place for animals to live naturallyD) a park where live animals are exhibitedPassage 3In some classes and at some schools, mid-terms seem to be almost non-existent. The phrase is used loosely to represent a short period of time occurring closer to the first day of classes than to finals with no specific calendar designed for it. Some classes require so many exams and papers that a "mid-term" never really happens. Other courses don’t give any exams at all; they require written assignments only. Nevertheless, there still exist a sizeable number of schools and curricula that rely on the traditional mid-term/final peaks in the semester to assess student performance.The mere fact that mid-terms are intended to monitor one’s understanding ofa subject mid-way through the term carries a heavy burden for most students. Atone end of the spectrum, students who perform well on their mid-terms tend to then study with far less consistency for their final exams －thus reducing their overall grade for the course. On the other end of that same spectrum, students who perform poorly on a mid-term often become psychologically negative: viewing the rest of the semester as a hopeless void. Almost immediately upon receiving their mid-term grade, they’re a lready looking at the course syllabus, trying to compute what their final grade will be if only they can score on their final and on other relevant assessments.Of course, to avoid becoming a victim of negative mid-term psychology oneither end of the spectrum, it is recommended that you should work hard to do very well on your mid-semester exams. Plan in steps. Too many students only loosely understand their subject material and then attempt to learn it all on theirown one week before or even one night before an exam. But this tactic (技巧) rarely works! Ease the anxiety of mid-terms by covering whatever you learned in the previous class and study that material. In the long run, this tactic really take less time than the "night before cram session".1.For most students, mid-term exams ____.A) are almost non-existent B) are a heavy burdenC) just written assignments D) not important to them2.Students who ____would worry more about the final exams.A) score high on mid-exams B) do well in other performancesC) perform poorly on mid-exams D) know how to compute the final scores3.The biggest problem students with poor performance have after mid-examsis ____.A) their low scores on mid-examsB) stress and anxiety about final assessmentC) how to calculate the final scoresD) how to prepare for the final exams4.To excel at your study, you are suggested to ____.A) study before exams B) be confident in yourselvesC) treat each class seriously D) relax before exams5.Before each class, ____.A) review all you have learnt beforeB) focus on what you’ve learnt last timeC) preview the lessonsD) do self-checkPassage 4When we think of creative people the names that probably spring to mind are those of men such as Leonardo da Vinci, Albert Einstein, and Pablo Picasso, i.e. great artists, inventors and scientists —a select and exceptionally gifted body of men with rare talent and genius. The tendency to regard creativity and imaginative thinking as the exclusive province of a lucky few disregards the creative and imaginative aspects inherent in the solution of many of the tasks we regularly have to face —the discovery and development of new methods and techniques, the improvement of old methods, existing inventions and products.Everyone has creative ability to some extent. Creative thinking involves posing oneself a problem and then originating or inventing a solution along new and unconventional lines. It involves drawing new analogies（类比）, discovering new combinations, and/or new applications of things that are already known. It follows, then, that a creative person will exhibit great intellectual curiosity and imagination. He will be alert and observant with a great store of information which he will be able to sort out and combine, in the solution of problem. He will be emotionally receptive to new and unconventional ideas and will be less interested in facts than in their implications. Most important of all he will be able to communicate uninhibitedly and will not be too concerned about other people's reaction to his apparently "crazy" notions. People called the Wright brothers mad but it did not stop them from becoming the first men to construct and fly a heavier-than-air craft.1.The author believes that creative thinking ____.A) is possessed by some great artists and scientistsB) requires rare talent and geniusC) is needed in the solution of many problemsD) belongs to a lucky few2.In order to solve scientific problems, people ____.A) have to possess crazy notionsB) should not attach too much importance to factsC) should be able to express themselves clearlyD) should use imagination and don't care about what others might think of3.Creative thinking involves ____.A) drawing new pictures of old thingsB) observing the actions of great peopleC) finding the problem and originating a solutionD) storing information4.A creative person must look at facts ____.A) as they are B) for what they implyC) and remember them D) which are interesting5.In this passage, “unconventional” means____.A) not political B) unacceptable C) not ordinary D) uninhibitedPassage 5The old advertising slogan, ‘So simple a child can do it ,’has taken on new meaning for me. A few weeks ago I got a computer, but I am mechanically illiterate. I knew that children had no fear。

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph fromwhich the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Eachparagraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letteron Answer Sheet.I Cry, Therefore 1 AmA) In 2008, at a German zoo, a gorilla (大猩猩) named Gana gave birth to a male infant, who died afterthree months.Photographs of Gana, looking stricken and inconsolable (伤心欲绝的), attracted crowds to the zoo.Sad as the scene was, the humans, not Gana, were the only ones crying.The notion that animals can weep has no scientific basis.Years of observations by biologists Dian Fossey, who observed gorillas, and Jane Goodall, who worked with chimpanzees (黑猩猩), could not prove that animals cry tears from emotion.B) It's true that many animals shed tears, especially in response to pain.Tears protect the eye by keepingit moist. But crying as an expression of feeling is unique to humans and has played an essential role in human evolution and the development of human cultures.C) Within two days an infant can imitate sad and happy faces.If an infant does not cry out, it is unlikelyto get the attention it needs to survive.Around 3-4 months, the relationship between the human infant and its environment takes on a more organized communicative role, and tearful crying begins to serve interpersonal purposes：the search for comfort and pacification (抚慰). As we get older, crying becomes a tool of social interaction: grief and joy, shame and pride, fear and manipulation.D) Tears are as universal as laughter, and grief is more complex than joy.But although we all cry, we doso in different ways. Women cry more frequently and intensely than men, especially when exposed to emotional events.Like crying, depression is, around the world, more commonly seen in women than in men.One explanation might be that women, who despite decades of social advances still suffer from economic inequality, discrimination (歧视) and even violence, might have more to cry about.Men not only cry for shorter periods than women, but they also are less inclined to explain their tears, usually shed them more quietly, and tend more frequently to apologize when they cry openly.Men, like women, report crying at the death of a loved one and in response to a moving religious experience. They are more likely than women to cry when their core identities--as providers and protectors, as fathers and fighters--are questioned.E) People who score on personality tests as more sympathetic cry more than those who are more rigidor have more self-control.Frequency of crying varies widely: some shed tears at any novel or movie, others only a handful of times in their lives.Crying in response to stress and conflict in the home, or after emotional trauma (创伤), lasts much longer than tears induced by everyday sadness--which in turn last longer than tears of delight and joy.F) Sadness is our primary association with crying, but the fact is that people report feeling happier aftercrying.Surveys estimate that 85% of women and 73% of men report feeling better after shedding tears.Surprisingly, crying is more commonly associated with minor forms of depression than with major depression involving suicidal thoughts.G) People widely report that crying relieves tension, restores emotional balance and provides“catharsis.” a washing out of bad feelings.The term “catharsis”has religious implications of removing evil and sin; it's no surprise that religious ceremonies are, around the world, one of the main settings for the release of tears.H) Crying is a nearly universal sign of grief, though some mourners report that, despite genuine sorrow,they cannot shed tears—sometimes even for years after their loved one has gone.Unlike today, when the privacy of grief is more respected, the public or ceremonial shedding of tears, at the graveside ofa spouse or the funeral of a king or queen, was once considered socially or even politically essential.I) Crying has also served other social purposes.Rousseau wrote in his Confessions that while heconsidered tears the most powerful expression of love, he also just liked to cry over nothing.J) The association of tears with art has ancient roots.The classic Greek tragedies of the fifth centuryB.C. were primarily celebrations of gods.Tragedies, like poetry and music, were staged religiousevents.Even then it was recognized that crying in response to drama brought pleasure.K) I have argued that there are neurobiological (神经生物方面的) associations linking the arts and mood disorders.When I lecture on crying, I ask my audience to let me know, by a show of hands, which art forms most move them to tears.About 80% say music, followed closely by novels (74%), but then the figures fall sharply, to 43%, for poetry, and 10-22% for paintings, sculpture and architecture.L) The physical act of crying is mainly one of breathing in air, which is why we choke up when we weep.This suggests to language scientists that emotional crying evolved before language, perhaps explaining why tears communicate states of mind and feelings that are often so difficult to express in words.Of course, from an evolutionary perspective, recognition of emotion (usually through facial gesture) was essential for survival.M) The earliest humans arrived several million years ago, but only 150 000 to 200 000 years ago, did cultures, language, religion and the arts arise.Along the way, tears became more than a biological necessity to lubricate (润滑) the eye and developed into a sign of intense emotion and a signal of social bonding.The development of self-consciousness and the notion of individual identity, or ego;storytelling about the origins of the world, the creation of humanity and life after death; and the ability to feel others' sadness—all were critical parts of the neurobiological changes that made us human.N) More recently, we've learned from neuroscience that certain brain circuits (回路) are activated (激活), rapidly and unconsciously, when we see another in emotional distress.In short, our brain evolved circuits to allow us to experience sympathy, which in turn made civilization, and an ethics based on sympathy, possible.So the next time you reach a tissue box, or sob on a friend's shoulder, or shed tears at the movies, stop and reflect on why we cry and what it means to cry.Because ultimately, while we love to cry, we also cry to love.36. Nowadays people respect the privacy of grief more than in the past.37. Infants cry to attract attention for survival.38. There is no scientific evidence as yet that animals can shed tears from emotion.39. Tears can perform certain communicative functions which words cannot.40. Our ability to experience sympathy is essential to the development of civilization.41. People are more inclined to cry when suffering minor forms of depression.42. Sometimes people cannot cry despite genuine grief.43. In humans' long history, tears have developed an essential role in social relationships.44. Men are less likely to give reasons for their tears.45. Crying has long been associated with art.Section CDirections: There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). Youshould decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet with asingle line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.I have closely watched my generation, known as The Millennials, for 29 years now. Joel Stein wrote an extensive piece on Millennials and he remains rather optimistic about our potential.I hesitate to share his optimism because of a paradox (矛盾的现象) we seem to exhibit, namely, that there are more avenues for us to entertain ourselves than ever before, yet we are more bored than ever before.Entertainment has never been more varied.We have more cable channels, television shows, and movies than ever before.Internet providers allow instant viewing of almost any movie or television program ever created.Social drinking and partying are also widely available for Millennials.Every generation develops these habits at a certain age, but Millennials seem to be extending this phase of life as they postpone marriage.Some of this is undoubtedly due to The Great lennials arc having a difficult time finding jobs; only 47 percent of 16-to-24-year-olds are employed, the smallest share since government stared recording data in 1948.But do Millennials respond to these economic troubles by doing whatever it takes to make ends meet? Hardly.In fact, of the four generations Pew Research has data for, the Millennial generation does not cite work ethic (勤奋工作) as distinctive of lennials want to save the world, but they sit and wait for that world-changing opportunity to be handed to them.Instead of working 2-3 jobs, launching a business, or doing what it takes to succeed, they lennials may be the first generation to have a lower standard of living than their parents, but with this response to adversity (逆境), perhaps deservingly so.Much ink has been spilled in management books discussing how to get the most out of these youths in the workplace. Largely, they come to the same conclusion: Millennials are entitled, over-confident, and expect too much too quickly.We should not be surprised.Today's young adults were raised by parents who made sure to boost their self-esteem at every turn, telling them they could achieve whatever they set their minds to, and handing out prizes for the sixth place.46. What does the author of the passage think of Millennials?A) They show little interest in entertainment.B) They are not confident about their ability.C) They enjoy an easy life due to high technology.D) They may not have bright prospects for success.47. How do Millennials feel about their life?A) They can hardly do anything about it.B) There is little in it to get excited about.C) It is not as good as their parents'.D) It is full of opportunities for success.48. In what way are Millennials different from previous generations according to Pew Research?A) They spend less time socializing. B) They are indifferent to others.C) They do not value hard work. D) They are more independent.49. What should Millennials do according to the author?A) Remain optimistic in face of adversity. B) Start a business as early as possible.C) Make full use of new opportunities. D) Take action to change their situation.50. Why are Millennials over-confident about themselves?A) They have been spoiled by their parents. B) They can always get whatever they expect.C) They are misguided by management books. D) They think they are young and energetic.Passage TwoQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.In spring, chickens start laying again, bringing a welcome source of protein at winter's end. So it's no surprise that cultures around the world celebrate spring by honoring the egg.Some traditions are simple, like the red eggs that get baked into Greek Easter breads. Others elevate the egg into a fancy art, like the heavily jewel-covered " eggs" that were favored by the Russians starting in the 19th century.One ancient form of egg art comes to us from Ukraine. For centuries, Ukrainians have been drawing complicated patterns on eggs. Contemporary artists have followed this tradition to create eggs that speak to the anxieties of our age: Life is precious, and delicate. Eggs are, too."There's something about their delicate nature that appeals to me," says New Yorker cartoorust Roz Chast. Several years ago, she became interested in eggs and learned the traditional Ukrainian technique to draw her very modem characters. "I've broken eggs at every stage of the process-from the very beginning to the very, very end. "But there's an appeal in that vulnerability. "There's part of this sickening horror of knowing you're walking on the edge with this, that I kind of like, knowing that it could all fall apart at any second. " Chast's designs, such as a worried man alone in a tiny rowboat, reflect that delicateness.Traditional Ukrainian decorated eggs also spoke to those fears. The elaborate patterns were believed to offer protection against evil."There's an ancient legend that as long as these eggs are made, evil will not prevail in the world," says Joan Brander, a Canadian egg-painter who has been painting eggs for over 60 years, having learned the art from her Ukrainian relatives.The tradition, dating back t0 300 B. C., was later incorporated into the Christian church. The old symbols, however, still endure. A decorated egg with a bird on it, given to a young married couple, is a wish for children. A decorated egg thrown into the field would be a wish for a good harvest.51. Why do people in many cultures prize the egg?A) It is a welcome sign of the coming of spring.B) It is their major source of protein in winter.C) It can easily be made into a work of art.D) It can bring wealth and honor to them.52. What do we learn about the decorated "eggs" in Russia?A) They are shaped like jewel cases. B) They are cherished by the rich.C) They are heavily painted in red. D) They are favored as a form of art.53. Why have contemporary artists continued the egg art tradition?A) Eggs serve as an enduring symbol of new life.B) Eggs have an oval shape appealing to 7utists.C) Eggs reflect the anxieties of people today.D) Eggs provide a unique surface to paint on.54. Why does Chast enjoy the process of decorating eggs?A) She never knows if the egg will break before the design is completed.B) She can add multiple details to the design to communicate her idea.C) She always derives great pleasure from designing something new.D) She is never sure what the final design will look like until the end.55. What do we learn from the passage about egg-painting?A) It originated in the eastern part of Europe.B) It has a history of over two thousand years.C) It is the most time-honored form of fancy art.D) It is especially favored as a church decoration.Part IV Translation (30 minutes, 15 points) Directions:For this past, you are allowed 30 minutes to translate a passage from Chinese into English.You should write your answer on Answer Sheet.中国教育工作者早就认识到读书对于国家的重要意义。

Choose the one that you think is the best answer.Text AWhen I begin to look back on all friends whom I have had, I quickly came to the conclusion that Jerry was the most important and had the greatest effect upon my life. His family moved to my block when I was only 10. Jerry was 15 at the time, but the fact that he was so much older than me seemed to make no difference to him. I was very glad that he liked me. We took long walks together, on which he would tell me stories he had heard form TV and radio programs.But as months went by, a change came into our friendship. Jerry almost stopped coming by the house, and every time I went to his house or telephoned, he put me off with some excuses such as "I'm studying now" or "I've got some jobs to do for Mum". When we passed on the street, he would still give me a warm smile and friendly wave with a "Hi, kid", but he would hardly ever stop to talk. Finally Irealized that he was no longer interested in me and that his taste had changed. I noticed him with a girl once in a while and several times saw him going out in his family's car on a Friday or Saturday night. I simply couldn't understand what was so great about girls and parties.But I was hurt when he finally made me know that our friendship was at an end. Of course, he didn't really mean to hurt me, but it was a long time before I realized that it was an age problem that caused the break. There were a world of differences between the ideas and interests of a 17-year-old and a 12-year-old. Now that I’m over sixteen myself, I realized this, and the hurt I got then has become happy memories of the good times we were once together. I wonder if millions of other boys and girls have hada similar experience.66. When the writer and Jerry first met, Jerry was 5 years older than the writer.67. Their friendship lasted for a few years.68. Jerry stopped playing with the writer because he was busy with his study.69. When a change came in their friendship, the writer started going to parties with girls。

根据前文It’s not a good habit“这是一个坏习惯”，可知，空格处所在句子表示“将今天的事情推到明天做”，所以空格处填动词短语put off符合语境。

故选B。

Contrary to popular belief, colds are not caused by exposure to severe weather. Colds are caused by viruses (病毒) harbored in the body, and you’re better off out on the ski slopes or even waiting for the bus on a snowy day than you are in a toast warm room, surrounded by friends, co-workers, or fellow students, who just may be passing the virus around. If you feel a chill when you’re coming down with a cold, you’re already sick. A chill (寒冷) is an early symptom: it’s the cold that caused the chill, not the other way around.While the virus can spread through droplets (飞沫)propelled into the air when a cold-sufferer coughs or sneezes, surprisingly, this is not the most common route of transmission. Numerous studies have now shown that the overwhelming majority of colds are “caught” by handcontact. A cold-sufferer rubs her nose, thereby transferring the virus to her hand. Then a friend comes to visit. “Don’t kiss me,” she cautions, so the friend steps back and presses her hand. The friend then wipes her own nose or eye — and several days later is stricken with a cold. Or parents pick up their child’s discarded tissues and carefully throw them away but fail to wash their hands afterward.Cold virus also can be transferred to objects —telephones, towels, plate —and remain infectious for up to three hours. Frequent hand washing — on the part of the cold-sufferer as well as other members of the household — will minimize the spread of viruses in this way.31. According to the first paragraph, you’re most likely to catch a cold if ________.A) you expose yourself to severe weatherB) you play outdoors long when it is snowingC) you stay in a very warm room with a lot of peopleD) you wait for a bus on a cold and windy day32. If you feel a chill, it means ________.A) you’ll catch a cold sooner or laterB) you’ve already come down with a coldC) there are viruses hidden in your bodyD) the room is not warm enough for your health33. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A) It is generally believed that colds are caused by exposure to cold weather.B) Most colds are “caught” by hand contact.C) Cold virus will keep alive for several hours once it leaves human body.D) Cold virus can spread around only through the air.34. According to the author, the best way of avoiding catching a cold is ________.A) washing your hands frequentlyB) never rubbing your nose or eyesC) throwing away tissues immediately after useD) shaking hands with your friends instead of kissing them35. The best title for this passage might be ________.A) Colds and Viruses B) Colds and TemperatureC) Ways of Avoiding Colds D) The Spread of VirusesQuestions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:Computer programmer David Jones earns $35,000 a year designing new computer games, yet he cannot find a bank prepared to let him have a cheque card. Instead, he has been told to wait another two years, until he is 18.The 16-year-old works for a small firm in Liverpool, where the problem of most young people of his age is finding a job. David’s firm releases two new games for the expanding home computer market each month.But David’s biggest headache is what to do with his money, Despite his salary, earned by inventing new programs within tight schedules, with bonus payments(红利) and profit-sharing, he cannot drive a car, take out a mortgage (抵押), or obtain credit cards.He lives with his parents in their council house in Liverpool, where his father is a bus driver.His computer has to pay $150 a month in taxi fares to get him the five miles to work and back every day because David cannot drive.David got his job with the Liverpool-based company four months ago, a year after leaving school with six O-le vels and working for a time in a computer shop. “I got the job because the people who run the firm knew I had already written some programs,” he said.“I suppose $35,000 sounds a lot but actually that’s being pessimistic. I hope it will come to more than t hat this year.” He spends some of his money on records and clothes, and gives his mother $20 a week. But most of his spare time is spent working.“Unfortunately, computing was not part of our studies at school,” he said. “But I had been studying it in books and magazines for four years in my spare time. I knew what I wanted to do and never considered staying on at school. Most people in this business are fairly young, anyway.”David added: “I would like to earn a million and I suppose early retirement is a possibility. You never know when the market might disappear.”36. Why is David different from other young people of his age?A) He earns an extremely high salary.B) He is not unemployed.C) He does not go out much.D) He lives at home with his parent.37. David’s greatest problems is _______.A) making the banks treat him as an adultB) inventing computer gamesC) spending his salaryD) learning to drive38. He was employed by the company because _______.A) he had worked in a computer shopB) he had written some computer programsC) he works very hardD) he had learnt to use computers at school39. He left school after taking O-level because _______.A) he did not enjoy schoolB) he wanted to work with computers and staying at school did not help himC) he was afraid of getting too old to start computingD) he wanted to earn a lot of money40. Why does David think he might retire early?A) You have to be young to write computer programs.B) He wants to stop working when he is a millionaire.C) He thinks computer games might not always sell so well.D) He thinks his firm might go bankrupt.Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:The journey two naval officers made some time ago to the very deepest point on the earth makes us realize how much of the world still remains to be explored. The two men went down seven miles to the bottom of the Pacific Ocean inside a small steel ball called a "bathyscaphe" tofind out if there are any ocean currents or signs of life.It was necessary to set out early, so that the bathyscaphe would come to the surface in daylight, and so he easily found by the mother ship which would be waiting for it. The divers began preparations at dawn and soon afterwards, when all was ready, the steel ball disappeared under the surface of the water.In time, the temperature dropped to freezing-point and the men shivered inside the ball. They kept in touch with the mother ship by telephone describing how they felt. Then, at a depth of 3000 feet, the telephone stopped working and they were quite cut off from the outside world. At 30,000 feet, the men were startled by a loud, cracking noise; though, it was only one of the outer windows that had broken. Soon afterwards, the bathyscaphe touched the soft ocean floor raising a big cloud of "dust" made up of small, dead sea-creatures. Here, powerful lights lit up the dark water and the men were surprised to see fish swimming just above them quite untroubled by the enormous water-pressure. But they did not dare leave the lights on for long, as the heat from them made the water boil. Quite unexpectedly, the telephone began working again and the faint but clear voices of the officers were heard on the mother ship. After a stay of thirty minutes the men began their journey up, arriving three hours later, cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience.41. The officers started their journey at dawn _____.A) with the intention of returning to the mother ship in twenty-four hoursB) because the sea then was calmC) when the sun was not too strongD) so that they could return before dark42. What did the officers find out at the bottom of the sea?A) They only found dead sea creatures.B) They did find signs of life.C) There was no evidence of any life.D) There was only dust.43. The journey to the bottom of the sea helped us to realize that _____.A) much of the world hasn't yet been exploredB) there are not any signs of life at the bottom of the seaC) enormous water-pressure has great effect on fishD) powerful lights can not be turned on at the ocean floor without killing fish44. "They kept in touch with the mother ship" in Paragraph 3 means _____.A) they touched the mother shipB) they maintained contact with the mother shipC) they stayed with the mother shipD) they were connected t o the mother ship45. Which of the following is closest in meaning to "They were cold and wet through, but none the worse for their experience."?A) They were cold and wet through, which was the worst thing of all.B) They were even worse than cold and wet through at the bottom of the sea.C) Considering what they had just experienced, being cold and wet through was not too bad.D) For such an experience, being cold and wet through was not bad for them at all.III.Cloze (10%)A few months ago the __46__ cat gave birth to __47__. There were six, and were very small. In fact, each was so __48__ that it could fit into a man’s coat pocket. The Anderson’s little boy, Jimmy, was very excited and wanted to feed them __49__.

Jimmy tried to decide which one to keep. He noticed that a small black one was almost __53__ a dog in its responsiveness to human beings and seemed to have much less __54__ to people than cats ordinarily are supposed to have.

Soon, the other five had been given away, and the little black one remained with the Anderson.One night, when Jimmy was __56__ in bed with his door partially shut and the windows wide open, he suddenly heard the door move with its characteristic __57__ noise. At the same time he felt a rush of cold air over him. The open window and the opening door were creating a __58__. He was very frightened and sat up. He tried to see by the __59__ moonlight streaming faintly into the room. At first, he could see __60__. Then, looking toward the floor, he saw __61__ trying to push the door open with its __62__. Jimmy, who had been very tense with fear, felt a wave of emotion rising up in him and was soon __63__ by immense relief. He laughed and decided right __64__ what he would name the cat, which until then had been without a name. He decided to name him Explorer because he was __65__ enough to open doors.46.

I first heard this tale in India, where it is told as if true---though any naturalist would know itcouldn’t be. Later someone told me that the story appeared in a magazine shortly before the First World War. That magazine story, and the person who wrote it, I have never been able to track down.67. No matter how many hours of my life I may spend reliving it, I know there is no way toprepare for the next time — no intelligent response to a gun. The fat cop was right: There is only luck. The next time I might end up dead.68. Although signs of dishonesty in school, business, and government seem much more numerousin recent years than in the past, could it be that we are getting better at revealing such dishonesty?V.Translation from Chinese into English (15%)69. 那位工业管理工程师的来信表明，他对该项计划是否可行有怀疑。
