For the most part,the response has been favorable,to say the least.“Hooray!At last!”wrote Anthony Tommasini,a sober-sided classical-music critic.One of the reasons why the appointment came as such a surprise, however,is that Gilbert is comparatively little known.Even Tommasini,who had advocated Gilbert’s appointment in the Times, calls him“an unpretentious musician with no air of the formidable conductor about him.”As a description of the next music director of an orchestra that has hitherto been led by musicians like Gustav Mahler and Pierre Boulez,that seems likely to have struck at least some Times readers as faint praise.For my part,I have no idea whether Gilbert is a great conductor or even a good one.To be sure,he performs an impressive variety of interesting compositions,but it is not necessary for me to visit Avery Fisher Hall,or anywhere else,to hear interestingorchestral music.All I have to do is to go to my CD shelf,or boot up my computer and download still more recorded music from iTunes.Devoted concertgoers who reply that recordings are no substitute for live performance are missing the point.For the time, attention,and money of the art-loving public,classical instrumentalists must compete not only with opera houses,dance troupes,theater companies,and museums,but also with the recorded performances of the great classical musicians of the20th century. There recordings are cheap,available everywhere,and very often much higher in artistic quality than today’s live performances;moreover, they can be“consumed”at a time and place of the listener’s choosing.The widespread availability of such recordings has thus brought about a crisis in the institution of the traditional classical concert.One possible response is for classical performers to program attractive new music that is not yet available on record.Gilbert’s own interest in new music has been widely noted:Alex Ross,a classical-music critic,has described him as a man who is capable of turning the Philharmonic into“a markedly different,more vibrant organization.”But what will be the nature of that difference?Merely expanding the orchestra’s repertoire will not be enough.If Gilbert and the Philharmonic are to succeed,they must first change the relationship between America’s oldest orchestra and the new audience it hops to attract.21.We learn from Para.1that Gilbert’s appointment has[A]incurred criticism.[B]raised suspicion.[C]received acclaim.[D]aroused curiosity.22.Tommasini regards Gilbert as an artist who is[A]influential.[B]modest.[C]respectable.[D]talented.23.The author believes that the devoted concertgoers[A]ignore the expenses of live performances.[B]reject most kinds of recorded performances.[C]exaggerate the variety of live performances.[D]overestimate the value of live performances.24.According to the text,which of the following is true of recordings?[A]They are often inferior to live concerts in quality.[B]They are easily accessible to the general public.[C]They help improve the quality of music.[D]They have only covered masterpieces.25.Regarding Gilbert’s role in revitalizing the Philharmonic,the author feels[A]doubtful.[B]enthusiastic.[C]confident.[D]puzzled.Text2When Liam McGee departed as president of Bank of America in August,his explanation was surprisingly straight up.Rather than cloaking his exit in the usual vague excuses,he came right out and said he was leaving“to pursue my goal of running a company.”Broadcasting his ambition was“very much my decision,”McGee says. Within two weeks,he was talking for the first time with the board of Hartford Financial Services Group,which named him CEO and chairman on September29.McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time to reflect on what kind of company he wanted to run.It also sent a clear message to the outside world about his aspirations.And McGee isn’t alone.In recent weeks the No.2executives at Avon and American Express quit with the explanation that they were looking for a CEO post.As boards scrutinize succession plans in response to shareholder pressure,executives who don’t get the nod also may wish to move on.A turbulent business environment also has senior managers cautious of letting vague pronouncements cloud their reputations.As the first signs of recovery begin to take hold,deputy chiefs may be more willing to make the jump without a net.In the third quarter,CEO turnover was down23%from a year ago as nervous boardsstuck with the leaders they had,according to Liberum Research.As the economy picks up,opportunities will abound for aspiring leaders.The decision to quit a senior position to look for a better one is unconventional.For years executives and headhunters have adhered to the rule that the most attractive CEO candidates are the ones who must be poached.Says Korn/Ferry senior partner Dennis Carey:”I can’t think of a single search I’ve done where a board has not instructed me to look at sitting CEOs first.”Those who jumped without a job haven’t always landed in top positions quickly.Ellen Marram quit as chief of Tropicana a decade age,saying she wanted to be a CEO.It was a year before she became head of a tiny Internet-based commodities exchange.Robert Willumstad left Citigroup in2005with ambitions to be a CEO.He finally took that post at a major financial institution three years later.Many recruiters say the old disgrace is fading for top performers.The financial crisis has made it more acceptable to be between jobs or to leave a bad one.“The traditional rule was it’s safer to stay where you are,but that’s been fundamentally inverted,”says one headhunter.“The people who’ve been hurt the worst are those who’ve stayed too long.”26.When McGee announced his departure,his manner can best be described as being[A]arrogant.[B]frank.[C]self-centered.[D]impulsive.27.According to Paragraph2,senior executives’quitting may be spurred by[A]their expectation of better financial status.[B]their need to reflect on their private life.[C]their strained relations with the boards.[D]their pursuit of new career goals.28.The word“poached”(Line3,Paragraph4)most probably means[A]approved of.[B]attended to.[C]hunted for.[D]guarded against.29.It can be inferred from the last paragraph that[A]top performers used to cling to their posts.[B]loyalty of top performers is getting out-dated.[C]top performers care more about reputations.[D]it’s safer to stick to the traditional rules.30.Which of the following is the best title for the text?[A]CEOs:Where to Go?[B]CEOs:All the Way Up?[C]Top Managers Jump without a Net[D]The Only Way Out for Top PerformersText3The rough guide to marketing success used to be that you got what you paid for.No longer.While traditional“paid”media–such as television commercials and print advertisements–still play a major role,companies today can exploit many alternative forms of media.Consumers passionate about a product may create“owned”media by sending e-mail alerts about products and sales to customers registered with its Web site.The way consumers now approach the broad range of factors beyond conventional paid media.Paid and owned media are controlled by marketers promoting their own products.For earned media,such marketers act as the initiator for users’responses.But in some cases,one marketer’s owned media become another marketer’s paid media–for instance, when an e-commerce retailer sells ad space on its Web site.We define such sold media as owned media whose traffic is so strong that other organizations place their content or e-commerce engines within that environment.This trend,which we believe is still in its infancy, effectively began with retailers and travel providers such as airlines and hotels and will no doubt go further.Johnson&Johnson, for example,has created BabyCenter,a stand-alone media property that promotes complementary and even competitive products.Besides generating income,the presence of other marketers makes the site seem objective,gives companies opportunities to learn valuable information about the appeal of other companies’marketing,and mayhelp expand user traffic for all companies concerned.The same dramatic technological changes that have provided marketers with more(and more diverse)communications choices have also increased the risk that passionate consumers will voice their opinions in quicker,more visible,and much more damaging ways.Such hijacked media are the opposite of earned media:an asset or campaign becomes hostage to consumers,other stakeholders,or activists who make negative allegations about a brand or product.Members of social networks,for instance,are learning that they can hijack media to apply pressure on the businesses that originally created them.If that happens,passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products,putting the reputation of the target company at risk.In such a case,the company’s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful,and the learning curve has been steep.Toyota Motor,for example,alleviated some of the damage from its recall crisis earlier this year with a relatively quick and well-orchestrated social-media response campaign,which included efforts to engage with consumers directly on sites such as Twitter and the social-news site Digg.31.Consumers may create“earned”media when they are[A]obscssed with online shopping at certain Web sites.[B]inspired by product-promoting e-mails sent to them.[C]eager to help their friends promote quality products.[D]enthusiastic about recommending their favorite products.32.According to Paragraph2,sold media feature[A]a safe business environment.[B]random competition.[C]strong user traffic.[D]flexibility in organization.33.The author indicates in Paragraph3that earned media[A]invite constant conflicts with passionate consumers.[B]can be used to produce negative effects in marketing.[C]may be responsible for fiercer competition.[D]deserve all the negative comments about them.34.Toyota Motor’s experience is cited as an example of[A]responding effectively to hijacked media.[B]persuading customers into boycotting products.[C]cooperating with supportive consumers.[D]taking advantage of hijacked media.35.Which of the following is the text mainly about?[A]Alternatives to conventional paid media.[B]Conflict between hijacked and earned media.[C]Dominance of hijacked media.[D]Popularity of owned media.Text4It’s no surprise that Jennifer Senior’s insightful, provocative magazine cover story,“I love My Children,I Hate My Life,”is arousing much chatter–nothing gets people talking likethe suggestion that child rearing is anything less than a completely fulfilling,life-enriching experience.Rather than concluding that children make parents either happy or miserable,Senior suggests we need to redefine happiness:instead of thinking of it as something that can be measured by moment-to-moment joy,we should consider being happy as a past-tense condition.Even though the day-to-day experience of raising kids can be soul-crushingly hard,Senior writes that“the very things that in the moment dampen our moods can later be sources of intense gratification and delight.”The magazine cover showing an attractive mother holding a cute baby is hardly the only Madonna-and-child image on newsstands this week.There are also stories about newly adoptive–and newly single–mom Sandra Bullock,as well as the usual“Jennifer Aniston is pregnant”news.Practically every week features at least one celebrity mom,or mom-to-be,smiling on the newsstands.In a society that so persistently celebrates procreation,is it any wonder that admitting you regret having children is equivalent to admitting you support kitten-killing?It doesn’t seem quite fair, then,to compare the regrets of parents to the regrets of the children. Unhappy parents rarely are provoked to wonder if they shouldn’t have had kids,but unhappy childless folks are bothered with the message that children are the single most important thing in the world: obviously their misery must be a direct result of the gaping baby-size holes in their lives.Of course,the image of parenthood that celebrity magazines like Us Weekly and People present is hugely unrealistic,especially when the parents are single mothers like Bullock.According to several studies concluding that parents are less happy than childless couples, single parents are the least happy of all.No shock there,considering how much work it is to raise a kid without a partner to lean on;yet to hear Sandra and Britney tell it,raising a kid on their“own”(read:with round-the-clock help)is a piece of cake.It’s hard to imagine that many people are dumb enough to want children just because Reese and Angelina make it look so glamorous: most adults understand that a baby is not a haircut.But it’s interesting to wonder if the images we see every week of stress-free, happiness-enhancing parenthood aren’t in some small,subconscious way contributing to our own dissatisfactions with the actual experience,in the same way that a small part of us hoped getting “the Rachel”might make us look just a little bit like Jennifer Aniston.36.Jennifer Senior suggests in her article that raising a child can bring[A]temporary delight[B]enjoyment in progress[C]happiness in retrospect[D]lasting reward37.We learn from Paragraph2that[A]celebrity moms are a permanent source for gossip.[B]single mothers with babies deserve greater attention.[C]news about pregnant celebrities is entertaining.[D]having children is highly valued by the public.38.It is suggested in Paragraph3that childless folks[A]are constantly exposed to criticism.[B]are largely ignored by the media.[C]fail to fulfill their social responsibilities.[D]are less likely to be satisfied with their life.39.According to Paragraph4,the message conveyed by celebrity magazines is[A]soothing.[B]ambiguous.[C]compensatory.[D]misleading.40.Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?[A]Having children contributes little to the glamour of celebrity moms.[B]Celebrity moms have influenced our attitude towards child rearing.[C]Having children intensifies our dissatisfaction with life.[D]We sometimes neglect the happiness from child rearing.Part BDirections:The following paragraph are given in a wrong order.For Questions41-45,you are required to reorganize these paragraphs into a coherent text by choosing from the list A-G to filling them into the numbered boxes.Paragraphs E and G have been correctly placed. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(10points)[A]No disciplines have seized on professionalism with as much enthusiasm as the humanities.You can,Mr Menand points out, became a lawyer in three years and a medical doctor in four.But the regular time it takes to get a doctoral degree in the humanities is nine years.Not surprisingly,up to half of all doctoral students in English drop out before getting their degrees.[B]His concern is mainly with the humanities:Literature, languages,philosophy and so on.These are disciplines that are going out of style:22%of American college graduates now major in business compared with only2%in history and4%in English.However,many leading American universities want their undergraduates to have a grounding in the basic canon of ideas that every educated person should posses.But most find it difficult to agree on what a“general education”should look like.At Harvard,Mr Menand notes,“the great books are read because they have been read”-they form a sort of social glue.[C]Equally unsurprisingly,only about half end up withprofessorships for which they entered graduate school.There are simply too few posts.This is partly because universities continue to produce ever more PhDs.But fewer students want to study humanities subjects:English departments awarded more bachelor’s degrees in 1970-71than they did20years later.Fewer students requires fewer teachers.So,at the end of a decade of theses-writing,many humanities students leave the profession to do something for which they have not been trained.[D]One reason why it is hard to design and teach such courses is that they can cut across the insistence by top American universities that liberal-arts educations and professional education should be kept separate,taught in different schools.Many students experience both varieties.Although more than half of Harvard undergraduates end up in law,medicine or business,future doctors and lawyers must study a non-specialist liberal-arts degree before embarking on a professional qualification.[E]Besides professionalizing the professions by this separation,top American universities have professionalised the professor.The growth in public money for academic research has speeded the process:federal research grants rose fourfold between 1960and1990,but faculty teaching hours fell by half as research took its toll.Professionalism has turned the acquisition of a doctoral degree into a prerequisite for a successful academic career:as late as1969a third of American professors did not possess one.But thekey idea behind professionalisation,argues Mr Menand,is that“the knowledge and skills needed for a particular specialization are transmissible but not transferable.”So disciplines acquire a monopoly not just over the production of knowledge,but also over the production of the producers of knowledge.[F]The key to reforming higher education,concludes Mr Menand,is to alter the way in which“the producers of knowledge are produced.”Otherwise,academics will continue to think dangerously alike,increasingly detached from the societies which they study, investigate and criticize.”Academic inquiry,at least in some fields, may need to become less exclusionary and more holistic.”Yet quite how that happens,Mr Menand dose not say.[G]The subtle and intelligent little book The Marketplace of Ideas:Reform and Resistance in the American University should be read by every student thinking of applying to take a doctoral degree. They may then decide to go elsewhere.For something curious has been happening in American Universities,and Louis Menand,a professor of English at Harvard University,captured it skillfully.G→41.→42.→E→43.→44.→45.Part CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese.Your translation should be written carefully on ANSWER SHEET 2.(10points)With its theme that“Mind is the master weaver,”creating our inner character and outer circumstances,the book As a Man Thinking by James Allen is an in-depth exploration of the central idea of self-help writing.(46)Allen’s contribution was to take an assumption we all share-that because we are not robots we therefore control our thoughts-and reveal its erroneous nature.Because most of us believe that mind is separate from matter,we think that thoughts can be hidden and made powerless;this allows us to think one way and act another. However,Allen believed that the unconscious mind generates as much action as the conscious mind,and(47)while we may be able to sustain the illusion of control through the conscious mind alone,in reality we are continually faced with a question:“Why cannot I make myself do this or achieve that?”Since desire and will are damaged by the presence of thoughts that do not accord with desire,Allen concluded:“We do not attract what we want,but what we are.”Achievement happens because you as a person embody the external achievement;you don’t“get”success but become it.There is no gap between mind and matter.Part of the fame of Allen’s book is its contention that “Circumstances do not make a person,they reveal him.”(48)This seems a justification for neglect of those in need,and a rationalization of exploitation,of the superiority of those at the top and the inferiority of those at the bottom.This,however,would be a knee-jerk reaction to a subtle argument.Each set of circumstances,however bad,offers a unique opportunity for growth.If circumstances always determined the life and prospects of people,then humanity would never have progressed. In fat,(49)circumstances seem to be designed to bring out the best in us and if we feel that we have been“wronged”then we are unlikely to begin a conscious effort to escape from our situation.Nevertheless, as any biographer knows,a person’s early life and its conditions are often the greatest gift to an individual.The sobering aspect of Allen’s book is that we have no one else to blame for our present condition except ourselves.(50)The upside is the possibilities contained in knowing that everything is up to us;where before we were experts in the array of limitations, now we become authorities of what is possible.SectionⅢWriting51.Directions:Write a letter to a friend of yours to1)recommend one of your favorite movies and2)give reasons for your recommendationYour should write about100words on ANSWER SHEET2Do not sign your own name at the end of the er“LI MING”instead.Do not writer the address.(10points)本文由“育明考博”整理编辑。

华慧考博针对2009年中国石油大学考博英语试题特点分析

华慧考博针对2009年中国石油大学考博英语试题特点分析来源:华慧考博网综述:中国石油大学2009年考博英语试题题量属于中等,有听力、词汇题、无选项的完型填空、阅读理解(A部分为三篇常规性的阅读文章后做选择题,B部分为阅读一篇文章后对文章中划线的句子用英语进行改述)、翻译(A部分为一个英文段落的英译中,B部分为一个中文段落的中译英)和写作共六个部分。

除翻译和阅读B部分用英语改写句子外,试题的整体难度不大。

词汇题主要考查词义辨析,也涉及少量的语法题,这部分题要求考生掌握一定的词汇量和一些基本的语法知识。

无选项的完型填空题主要考察了固定搭配和利用上下文的逻辑关系来做题,考生要充分利用上下文语境来做题。

阅读部分共有四篇文章,前三篇是常规性的阅读文章后做选择题,其内容涉及在自动化时代人类寻求替代工人来做单调乏味的工作、museum一词的词义随着时代的演化以及不断进步的技术给人类生活带来的变化;第四篇是阅读文章后对文章中划线的句子用英语进行改述,内容涉及赌博问题,该改述部分对语法知识不太好的学生而言肯定会有一定的难度。

段落的英译中和中译英部分有些句子较长,翻译起来有一定难度,需要考生掌握一定的中英互译的技巧和词汇量。

写作属于就话题来表达自己观点的作文,作文话题“幽默感是否是人类特质中最重要的”对考试而言可能有点难以下笔。

2014中国石油大学(华东)考博英语最后冲刺:阅读干扰项“主题偷换”例

2014中国石油大学(华东)考博英语最后冲刺:阅读干扰项“主题偷换”例

2015中国石油大学(华东)考博英语最后冲刺:阅读干扰项“主题偷换”例距离2015考博考试还有不到两周时间,针对考博英语的复习,我们在最后的几天时间里还有什么需要做的呢?高效的复习是我们从开始考博复习时就一直强调的,但是如何做到高效每个人的看法不同,每个人的做法和收效也不大一样。

今天育明考博考博英语老师就考博高效复习的冲刺方法为广大考生进行一下分析,希望可以帮助考生度过最后充实的几天时间。

我们在复习各种题型的时候应该采取不同的方式,考博英语的题型差别十分大,在复习上也应该区别对待才能达到高效的目的。

我们以一套真题为例,其中选择题和阅读题是我们平时复习的重点,选择题多重视技巧,阅读题则考察阅读能力和分析能力,他们之间有共通点就是词汇量和语句的阅读,不同点则是判断能力和分析能力。

联系我们扣扣:四九三三七一六二六。

电话:四零零六六八六九七八考试之前一定要做模拟测试,创造真正的考场环境,时间和试卷类型都一样才好,考察自己的能力,形成考试习惯,适应考场环境。

我们在做题的时候可能还是会遇到一些小问题影响我们继续做下去,比如单词不认识,作文不知道怎么写,阅读答案面熟影响判断等等,导致我们模拟考试中断。

其实遇到这些问题我们只要当做是真的在考试就可以了,我们在考试的时候通常会怎么应对这些问题就同样的去做,最后的测试结果就是你现在的真实水平,如果没有做错的题又怎么知道自己的不足点在哪里呢?英语考博中的阅读题永远都是我们最重视的题目,然而越是终是却越是容易出错,而且阅读题中往往总是有你觉得绝对正确的答案却是错误的,这种事情屡见不鲜。

之所以发生这种事情是因为你根本没有弄明白考博阅读的干扰项是如何制定的,也就是我们常说的阅读题出题思路。

下面为大家举例说明干扰项的注意点。

这个干扰项最大的特征就是“主体偷换”,用通俗的话说,就是把描述的对象给偷换了。

如果比较注意这一点的话其实很好发现。

以真题为例,让大家能更深入理解“主体偷换”的情况。

2015中国石油大学(华东)考博英语历年真题一、招考介绍从整体上看,由于博士生招生形势的不断发展各院校博士生入学考试的难度越来越大,对考生的外语水平要求也越来越高,特别是听、说能力。

攻读博士学位的学生,一方面应该具备坚实的专业理论基础和扎实的科研能力,另一方面还应该具备较高水平的外语能力。

二、中国石油大学(华东)考博英语题型Part1:词汇,20题10分Part2:完形填空,20题10分。

Part3:阅读理解,五篇25题45分(一篇填空5题5分,四篇常规20题40分)。

Part4:翻译,汉译英10题20分Part5:作文,15分三、考博英语必备参考书育明考博教研部主编,河北大学出版社出版的《考博英语真题解析》和《考博词汇》是考博人必备的两本书。

在当当网,亚马逊和全国各大书店均有销售,也可以联系我们直接购买。

四、联系导师在初步定好考博学校之后,就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系,询问是否有招生名额,能否报考,这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。

大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。

因为太早,学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定,报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额;太晚的话,怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。

一般情况下,导师对一个学生很中意的话,后来联系的学生,导师一般也不会答应其报考了。

在此说点题外话,联系导师的过程中,如果读研期间的导师有关系,可以尽量利用。

如果没有,也没关系,凭着自己的本事也是可以和考博导师很好的沟通的,这就要看自己了。

通常跟导师初次联系,都是发邮件。

导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种:(1)、欢迎报考。

这种答复最笼统,说明不了问题。

我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通,看看具体的进展,避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。

(2)、名额有限,可以报考,但有竞争。

很多人说这样的回复不满意,认为希望很小一般会被刷。

其实这样还是比较好的一种回答,最起码导师没有骗你而且给你机会去证明自己,考的好就可以上。

(3)、你的研究方向和我一样......各种一大堆他的研究方向和你相关,欢迎报考什么的话。

中国石油大学考博英语阅读真题及其解析Part ADirections:Read the following four texts.Answer the questionsbelow each text by choosing A,B,C,D.Mark your choice on ANSWERSHEET 1.(40points)Text1In order to“change lives for the better”and reduce“dependency,”George Orbome,Chancellor of the Exchequer,introduced the“upfront work search”scheme.Only if the joblessarrive at the jobcentre with a CV register for online job search,andstart looking for work will they be eligible for benefit-and then theyshould report weekly rather than fortnightly.What could be morereasonable?(PS:The way to contact yumingkaobo TEL:si ling ling-liu liu ba-liu jiu qi ba QQ:772678537) More apparent reasonableness followed.There will now be aseven-day wait for the jobseeker’s allowance.“Those first few daysshould be spent looking for work,not looking to sign on.”he claimed.“We’re doing these things because we know they help people say offbenefits and help those on benefits get into work faster”Help?Really?On first hearing,this was the socially concerned chancellor,trying to change lives for the better,complete with“reforms”toan obviously indulgent system that demands too little effort from thenewly unemployed to find work,and subsides laziness.What motivatedhim,we were to understand,was his zeal for“fundamentalfairness”-protecting the taxpayer,controlling spending andensuring that only the most deserving claimants received their benefits.Losing a job is hurting:you don’t skip down to the jobcentre with a song in your heart,delighted at the prospect of doubling your income from the generous state.It is financially terrifying, psychologically embarrassing and you know that support is minimal and extraordinarily hard to get.You are now not wanted;you support is minimal and extraordinarily hard to get.You are now not wanted;you are now excluded from the work environment that offers purpose and structure in your life.Worse,the crucial income to feed yourself and your family and pay the bills has disappeared.Ask anyone newly unemployed what they want and the answer is always:a job.But in Osborneland,your first instinct is to fall into dependency —permanent dependency if you can get it—supported by a state only too ready to indulge your falsehood.It is as though20years of ever-tougher reforms of the job search and benefit administration system never happened.The principle of British welfare is no longer that you can insure yourself against the risk of unemployment and receive unconditional payments if the disaster happens.Even the very phrase“jobseeker’s allowance”—invented in1996—is about redefining the unemployed as a“jobseeker”who had no mandatory right to a benefit he or she has earned through making national insurance contributions.Instead,the claimant receives atime-limited“allowance,”conditional on actively seeking a job;no entitlement and no insurance,at£71.70a week,one of the least generous in the EU.真题解析:文章概括:政府大臣Grorge Osbome提出了一个项目帮助失业的人找工作。

中国石油大学考博英语模拟真题及其解析Directions:In the following article,some sentences have been removed.For Questions1-5,choose the most suitable one from the list A―G to fit into each of the numbered blank.There are two extra choices,which do not fit in any of the gaps.One morning,a few years ago,Harvard President Neil Rudenstine overslept.1)Only after a three-month sabbatical―during which he read essayist Lewis Thomas,listened to Ravel and walked with his wife on a Caribbean beach―was he able to return to his post.That week, his picture was on the cover of Newsweek magazine beside the banner headline“Exhausted!”Geng duo yuan xiao wan zheng kao bo ying yu zhen ti ji qi jie xi qing lian xi quan guo mian fei zi xun dian hua: si ling ling liu liu ba liu jiu qi ba,huo jia zi xun qq:qi qi er liu qi ba wu san qi.In the relentless busyness of modern life,we have lost the rhythm between action and rest.I speak with people in business and education, doctors and day-care workers,shopkeepers and social workers,parents and teachers,nurses and lawyers,students and therapists,community activist and cooks.Remarkably,there is a universal refrain:"I am so busy".The more our life speeds up,the more we feel weary, overwhelmed and lost.2)Instead,the whole experience of being alive begins to melt into one enormous obligation.It becomes the standard greeting everywhere:"I am so busy".We say this to one another with no small degree of pride.The busier we are,the more important we seem to ourselves and,we imagine, to others.To be unavailable to our friends and family,to be unable to find time for the sunset(or even to know that the sun has set at all),to whiz through our obligations without time for a single mindful breath―this has become the model of a successful life.Because we do not rest,we lose our way.We lose the nourishment that gives us succor.We miss the quiet that gives us wisdom.Poisoned by the hypnotic belief that good things come only through tireless effort,we never truly rest.This is not the world we dreamed of when we were young.How did we get so terribly rushed in a world saturated with work and responsibility,yet somehow bereft of joy and delight?We have forgotten the Sabbath.3)It is time to be nourished and refreshed as we let our work, our chores and our important projects lie fallow,trusting that there are larger forces at work taking care of the world when we are at rest.If certain plant species do not lie dormant during winter,the plant begins to die off.4)So"Remember the Sabbath"is more than simply a lifestyle suggestion.It is a commandment,an ethical precept as serious as prohibitions against killing,stealing and lying.Sabbath is more than the absence of work.Many of us,in our desperate drive to be successful and care for our manyresponsibilities,feel terrible guilt when we take time to rest.But the Sabbath has proven its wisdom over the ages.Many of us still recall when not long ago,shops and offices where closed on Sundays. Those quiet Sunday afternoons are embedded in our cultural memory.Much of modern life is specifically designed to seduce our attention away from rest.When we are in the world with our eyes wide open,the seductions are insatiable.5)For those of us with children, there are endless soccer practices,baseball games,homework,laundry, housecleaning,errands.Every responsibility,every stimulus competes for our attention:Buy me.Do me.Watch me.Try me.Drink me.It is as if we have inadvertently stumbled into some horrific wonderland.[A]Rest is not just a psychological convenience;it is a biological necessity.[B]After years of non-stop toil in an atmosphere that rewarded frantic overwork,Rudenstine collapsed.[C]Hundreds of channels of cable and satellite television;phones with multiple lines and call-waiting.begging us to talk to more than one person at a time;mail,e-mail and overnight mail,fax machines; billboards;magazines;newspapers;radio.[D]Sometimes you can have a rest on Sundays.But your heart and soul is no longer quiet.[E]Sabbath is the time that consecrated to enjoy and celebrate what is beautiful and good―time to light candles,sing songs,worship,tell stories,bless our children and loved ones,give thanks, share meals,nap,walk and even make love.[F]Once upon a time.Sabbath is our heaven.We often walk in the green parks with friends or have a picnic lunch with the family. Listening to the birds on the tree makes me feel peaceful.But whatever happened to Sunday now?[G]Today our life and work rarely feel light,pleasant or healing.答案及详解1.B。

中国地质大学(北京)考博英语阅读理解真题解析 (2)

中国地质大学(北京)考博英语阅读理解真题解析 Let children learn to judge their own work. A child learning to talk does not learn by being corrected all the time; if corrected too much, he will stop talking. He notices a thousand times a day the difference between the languages he uses and the language those around him use. Bit by bit, he makes the necessary changes to make his language like other people. In the same way, when children learn to do all the other things they learn to do without being taught-to walk,run, climb, whistle, ride a bicycle-compare those performances with those of more skilled people, and slowly make the needed changes. But in school we never give a child a chance to find out his own mistakes for himself, let alone correct them. We do it all for him. We act as if we thought that he would never notice a mistake unless it was pointed out to him, or correct it unless he was made to. Soon he becomes dependent on the teacher. Let him do it himself. Let him work out, with the help of other children if he wants it, what this word says, what answer is to that problem, whether this is a good way of saying or doing this or not.(PS:The way to contact yumingkaobo TEL:si ling ling-liu liu ba-liu jiu qi ba QQ: 772678537) If it is a matter of right answers, as it may be in mathematics or science, give him the answer book. Let him correct his own papers. Why should we teachers waste time on such routine work? Our job should be to help the child when he tells us that he can't find the way to get the right answer. Let's end this nonsense of grades, exams, marks, Let us throw them all out, and let the children learn what all educated persons must some day learn, how to measure their own understanding, how to know what they know or do not know.Let them get on with this job in the way that seems sensible to them. With our help as school teachers if they ask for it. The idea that there is a body of knowledge to be learnt at school and used for the rest of one's life is nonsense in a world as complicated and rapidly changing as ours. Anxious parents and teachers say, “But suppose they fail to learn something essential they will need to get in the world?” Don't worry! If it is essential, they will go out into the world and learn it.1.What does the author think is the best way for children to learnthings?A.by copying what other people do.B.by making mistakes and having them corrected.C.by listening to explanations from skilled people.D.by asking a great many questions.2.What does the author think teachers do which they should not do?A.They give children correct answers.B.They point out children's mistakes to them.C.They allow children to mark their own work.D.They encourage children to mark to copy from one another.3.The passage suggests that learning to speak and learning to ridea bicycle are___.A.not really important skills.B.more important than other skills.C.basically different from learning adult skills.D.basically the same as learning other skills.4.Exams,grades,and marks should be abolished because children's progress should only be estimated by___.cated persons.B.the children themselves.C.teachers.D.parents.5.The author fears that children will grow up into adults while being___.A.too independent of others.B.too critical of themselves.C.incapable to think for themselves.D.incapable to use basic skills.答案:ABDBC本文由“育明考博”整理编辑。

Awkward or wordy phrasing or unclear sentences and paragraphs should be mercilessly poked and prodded into shape.[A]To make revising easier,leave wide margins and extra space between lines so that you can easily add words,sentences,and corrections.Write on only one side of the paper.[B]After you have clearly and adequately developed the body of your paper,pay particular attention to the introductory and concluding paragraphs.It's probably best to write the introduction last,after you know precisely what you are introducing.Concludingparagraphs demand equal attention because they leave the reader with a final impression.[C]It's worth remembering,however,that though a clean copy fresh off a printer may look terrific,it will read only as well as the thinking and writing that have gone into it.Many writers prudently store their data on disks and print their pages each time they finish a draft to avoid losing any material because of power failures or other problems.[D]It makes no difference how you write,just so you do.Now that you have developed a topic into a tentative thesis,you can assemble your notes and begin to flesh out whatever outline you have made.[E]Although this is an interesting issue,it has nothing to do with the thesis,which explains how the setting influences Sammy's decision to quit his job.Instead of including that paragraph,she added one that described Lengel's crabbed response to the girls so that she could lead up to the A&P policy he enforces.[F]In the final paragraph about the significance of the setting in A&P,the student brings together the reasons Sammy quit his job by referring to his refusal to accept Lengel's store policies.[G]By using the first draft as a means of thinking about what you want to say,you will very likely discover more than your notes originally suggested.Plenty of good writers don't use outlines at all but discover ordering principles as they write.Do not attempt to compose a perfectly correct draft the first time around.答案详解41.【解析】[D]试题前面的句子The first draft will appear on the page only if you stop avoiding the inevitable and sit,stand up,or lie down to write告诉读者如果写文章时只要作者不再试图避免一些事情,不管你是站着、坐着还是躺着写作,第一稿就会跃然纸上。
