硕士英语笔译专业研究生考试大纲(翻译硕士(MTI)英语)

硕士英语笔译专业研究生考试大纲(翻译硕士(MTI)英语)
出题形式分为两种:
第一种:每道题给出A,B,C,D选项;
第二种:每道题不给出A,B,C,D选项,由考生根据上下文自己选词填入答案。
Ⅲ.改错
1.要求:要求学生能运用语法、修辞、结构等语言知识识别短文内的语病并提出改正的方法。
2.题型:本题由一篇250词左右的短文组成,短文中有10行标有题号。该10行均含有一个语误。要求学生根据“增添”、“删去”或“改变其中的某一单词或短语”三种方法中的一种,以改正语误。考试时间共计15分钟。
对该专业有辅导历史:必须对该专业深刻理解,才能深入辅导学员考取该校。在考研辅导班中,从来见过如此辉煌的成绩:凯程教育拿下五道口金融学院状元,考取五道口15人,清华经管金融硕士10人,人大金融硕士15个,中财和贸大金融硕士合计20人,北师大教育学7人,会计硕士保录班考取30人,翻译硕士(MTI)接近20人,中传状元王园璐、郑家威都是来自凯程,法学方面,凯程在人大、北大、贸大、政法、武汉大学、公安大学等院校斩获多个法学和法硕状元,更多专业成绩请查看凯程网站。在凯程官方网站的光荣榜,成功学员经验谈视频特别多,都是凯程战绩的最好证明。对于如此高的成绩,凯程集训营班主任邢老师说,凯程如此优异的成绩,是与我们凯程严格的管理,全方位的辅导是分不开的,很多学生本科都不是名校,某些学生来自二本三本甚至不知名的院校,还有很多是工作了多年才回来考的,大多数是跨专业考研,他们的难度大,竞争激烈,没有严格的训练和同学们的刻苦学习,是很难达到优异的成绩。最好的办法是直接和凯程老师详细沟通一下就清楚了。
建校历史:机构成立的历史也是一个参考因素,历史越久,积累的人脉资源更多。例如,凯程教育已经成立10年(2005年),一直以来专注于考研,成功率一直遥遥领先,同学们有兴趣可以联系一下他们在线老师或者电话。

但是17年考研的同学要按照平均330以上准备。

来育明教育孙老师会根据学生的情况合理规划。

2,北京师范大学英语笔译招生人数从15年开始扩招,有原来的25到70人,推免生占55%,但是每年实际推免生都比原定名额少,希望大家好好备考。

3,北京师范大学英语笔译出题趋势和北大类似,文学性越来越强,大家可以参考北大真题学习。

4,北京师范大学英语笔译参考书真题都不公布,很多考生觉得无从下手,但是没有参考书并不能阻碍什么。

考研,非参加知识竞赛,背书即可。

研究生入学考试,考的是语言能力,不是考记忆力。

Read the passages and then mark your answers on the answer sheet.Passage OneThe empty nest may not be such an unhappy place after all. Since the 1970s, relationship experts have popularized th e notion of “empty nest syndrome,” a time of depression and loss of purpose that plagues parents, especially mothers, when their children leave home. Dozens of Web sites and books have been created to help parents weather the transition.The new research, published in November in the journal Psychological Science, shows that marital satisfaction actually improves when the children finally take their exits. Indeed, one of the more uncomfortable findings of the scientific study of marriage is the negative effect children can have on previously happy relationships. Despite the popular notion that children bring couples closer, several studies have shown that marital satisfaction and happiness typically plummet with the arrival of the first baby.While having a child clearly makes parents happy, the financial and time constraints can add stress to a relationship. After the birth of a child, couples have only aboutone-third the time alone together as they had when they were childless, according to researchers from Ohio State. The arrival of children also puts a disproportionate burden of household duties on women, a common source of marital conflict. After children, housework increases three times as much for women as for men.After comparing the women’s marital happiness in their 40s, when many still had children at home; in their early 50s, when some had older children who had left home; and in their 60s, when virtually all had empty nests, researchers found that the empty nesters scored higher on marital happiness than women with children still at home at every point. The subjects claimed that they spent just as much time with their parents whether the children were living at home or had moved out, but the quality of that time was better. The findings from researchers on the empty nest show that parents need to work to carve out more stress-free time together. In the sample studied, it was only relationship satisfaction that improved when children left home.1. What can be inferred from the first paragraph?A. "Empty nest syndrome" is one obvious sign of diagnosing depression.B. Parents will equally suffer from the loss of their children.C. Mother will feel greatly lost when their children get married.D. Parents can get help or comfort from web sites and books.2. The word "weather" (Para. 1) may refer to _____.A. influenceB. endureC. escapeD. override3. According to the passage, why do parents have better relationships in the period of empty nest?A. Because they have free time to have a travel outside.B. Because they are free from taking care of their children.C. Because they will enjoy more privacy than ever before.D. Because they can shake away their family responsibility.4. Which of the following is not true about couples inferred from the passage?A. Couples have less marital happiness for the coming of the baby.B. Couples have to earn more money after having a baby to support familyC. Couples have more conflicts whether they should have a baby.D. Couples have to spend more time in taking care of their baby.5. This passage is mainly about ______.A.How women feel about their marital relationship.B.What causes the phenomenon of the empty nestC.How people deal with "empty nest syndrome"D.Why an empty nest brings parents closer togetherPassage TwoHappiness is contagious, researchers reported on Thursday. The same team that demonstrated obesity and smoking spread in networks has shown that the more happy people you know, the more likely you are yourself to be happy, and getting connected to happy people improves a person's own happiness.C hristakis’ research team, a group of political scientists at the university of California, have been using data from 4,700 children of volunteers in the Framingham heart study, a giant health study begun in Framingham, Massachusetts in 1948.They have been analyzing facts from tracking sheets dating back to 1971, following births, marriages, death, and divorces. V olunteers also listed contact information for their closest friends,co-workers, and neighbors.They assessed happiness using a simple, four-question test. People are asked how often during the past week: one, I enjoyed life; two, I was happy; three, I felt hopeful about the future; and four, I felt that I was just as good as other people. The 60 percent of people who scored highly on all four questions were rated as happy, while the rest were designated unhappy. People with the most social connections were also the happiest, the data showed.Each additional happy person makes you happier. Your happiness depends on what is going on around you. It is not just happy people connecting with happy people, which they do. Above and beyond, there is this contagious process going on.And they discovered happiness is more contagious than unhappiness. If a social contact is happy, it increases the likelihood that you are happy by 15%. A friend of a friend, or a friend of a spouse or a sibling, if they are happy, increase your chances by 10%. But every extra unhappy friend increases the likelihood that you'll be unhappy by 7%. The finding is interesting but useful on the other hand. Among other benefits, happiness has been shown to have an important effect on reduced mortality, pain reduction, and improved cardiac function. So better understanding of how happiness spreads can help us learn how to promote a healthier society. The study also fits in with other data that suggested that in 1984 having $ 5,000 extra increased a person's chances of becominghappier by about 2%. "A happy friend is worth about $ 20,000," Christakis said. His team also is examining the spread of depression, loneliness, and drinking behavior.6. The word "contagious" (Para. 1) in the passage probably means ________.A.stretchingB.relaxingC.extendingD.spreading7. Which of the following contagious behaviors is not examined by Christakis' research team?A.Getting fatB.GamblingC.DrinkingD.Smoking8. Which of the following is true according to the passage?A. Happiness is contagious because it's an emotional stampede.B. The finding is from an analysis of tracking sheets of 4,700 children volunteers.C. The 40 % of volunteers scored highly on all four questions.D. The more people a person knows, the happier he would be.9. Which of the following about the contagiousness of happiness is not true?A. Happy social connections will increase the possibility of one's happiness.B. Even unhappy friends will be influenced and become happy.C. People can benefit a lot from happiness on health.D. Money will increase a person's chance of having more social connections.10. What's the passage mainly about?A. How happiness functions among people.B. How happiness spread among people.C. How happiness is closely related to health.D. How Christakis researches happiness.Passage ThreeAfter Susan Joyce was laid off from Digital Equipment Corp. , she was horrified to hear of two suicides in her layoff group. Then she learned about a colleague who stabbed his wife to death and hung himself.These cases may sound extreme, but being fired or laid off is undeniably one of life' s biggest blows and can lead to clinical depression, violence and alcohol abuse, as well as strokes and heart attacks. Even the fear of losing a job produces more doctor visits and health worries. In short, the recent news about rising unemployment and job insecurity may be bad news for our health.Layoffs create a sense of hopelessness. Stress - related complaints such as insomnia and headaches tend to follow, lingering even after victims find new jobs, says University of Michigan psychologist Richard Price, who tracked more than 700 layoff victims for two years. Research based on 17 years of Pennsylvania unemployment records concluded that employees affected by a mass layoff at a plant were 15 percent more likely to die of any cause over the next two decades. Experts blame the cascade (大量倾泻) of misfortune that often follows after a layoff, including the loss of health insurance.Your health can suffer simply from fear of losing your job, says Sarah Burgard, a sociologist at the University of Michigan. She concluded that chronic job insecurity over atwo - year period rivals the anxiety of a job loss or a major illness. Even people who are not typically worriers report worse health when they believe their jobs are in danger. Fears of poor job prospects may have similar consequences.Economic stress may even show up in national public -health measures, although experts disagree about how to calculate those effects. Harvey Brenner, professor emeritus ([大学教师]退休后仍保留头衔的,荣誉退休的) at Johns Hopkins's Bloomberg School of Public Health and a professor of public health at the University of North Texas, argues that the 1 percentage point increase in unemployment since a year ago could have serious health repercussions (持续影响,反响) for the next two years. According to Brenner' s projections, there could be as many as 47,000 more deaths than would have otherwise occurred, including 1,200 more suicides, as well as nearly 26,000 more heart attacks. Should unemployment continue to rise, these numbers are likely to increase, too.Prepare financially by cutting costs and building up adversity funds. Get help if you or a loved one can't shake the blues. Watch for signs of depression: changes in eating and sleeping habits, significant changes in weight, loss of interest in sex or other pleasures. And, if possible, make health insurance a priority, as you may be more vulnerable to illness.11. According to the examples in the beginning of the passage, when suffering the life's biggest blows, one would do the following except______?A. commit suicideB. feel depressedC. help seekingD. weight change12. Which of the following statements is true according to the passage?A. Suicide becomes a common choice among layoff groups.B. Strokes and heart attacks are mainly caused by being fired or laid off.C. People afraid of losing their jobs would visit doctors more than usual.D. Long-time job insecurity is less than the anxiety of a job loss or a major illness.13. Economic stress shows up in national public-health measures, which probably means _____________.A. unemployment is closely related to the health repercussionB. the number of deaths due to working-related disease increasesC. bad economic situation will reduce people's health expenditureD. government will cut down the budget on public health to boom economy14. The following are the signs of depression the author mentions in the passage, except ____________.A. when one suddenly changes his eating habitsB. when one indulges himself in drinking and smokingC. when one keeps on losing weight in short timeD. when one gets bored about some pleasures15. This passage is mainly about _______.A. how to keep people away from depressionB. how death closely relate to unemploymentC. how to get out of the woe from unemploymentD. how to cope with the difficulties of layoffSection Two (10 points)Direction: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words on the Answer Sheet.No one really thrives in a wholly institutionalized (制度化的) environment or in a purely intellectual career. This truth might have been found long ago by observing babies, from whom much can be learned about human nature. The need is not a temporary one; it begins in infancy and continues throughout life. As the most materialistic science in the world, the science of medicine has been forced to admit that the human baby must be loved in order to live. He has fewer chances to survive in the sterilized (已灭菌的) ward than in a house full of germs. The baby needs personal affection more than anything else. He must be “mothered” by a mother who is all his own. A baby left without this is likely to die from sheer emotional starvation, or else grow up into a distorted (扭曲的) soul—a source of anxiety to everybody.The love impulse later undergoes an evolutionary growth, but it does not vanish. The baby is a creature that must be loved rather than a creature capable of loving. To develop this second ability, he needs to live in an atmosphere in which this mature kind of love is practiced. If his parents failed to chew, to walk or to speak, he would probably be backward in the acquisition of these arts. If his parents fail to furnish them with the example of love, he is desperately off. He may see the neighbors walk, and talk, and chew; but the subtle art of generous affection is usually demonstrated best before one’s own family.At the adult level, nobody can live wholly in a job. Too many persons are trying to do so. They can exist without intimate relationships and get along with the casual personal contacts of the job and the club. How much better if we admit our need of love and affection and then try to build up these relationships in the full light of self-knowledge? Personal attachments are necessary. Why call the world heartless if we have never looked for hearts in the only place where they occur—in the individual human bosom?Love means sacrifice, but it produces a well-balanced personality. The importance of love is demonstrated more by the disasters which follow up its absence than by the things which happen when it takes its normal place in life. As with many other vital necessities, we are scarcely conscious of its presence. But let it once cease, and the personality falls into disintegration. Love is not cheap, but we must choose to pay the cost, for life demands at least that much heroism from all of us.16. Why do people fail to thrive in a wholly institutionalized environment or in a purelyintellectual career?17. Is the need for love to survive temporary?18. If a baby were living in an environment without love, they would _______________.19. How can we help babies develop the ability to love others?20. The importance of love can be most felt when ______________________________.Part IV Writing (30 points)Direction:Samuel Ullman wrote in his essay, "Youth is not a time of life; it is a state of mind." How do you understand this? Please develop the topic into a three-paragraph essay on the ANSWER SHEET with at least 300 words.。

Reading Comprehension (30 points)Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A., B., C. and D. You should decide on the best choice and write down your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1The standardized educational or psychological tests, which are widely used to aid in selecting, assigning or promoting students, employees and military personnel, have been the target of recent attacks in books, magazines, the daily press, and even in Congress. The target is wrong, for, in attacking the tests, critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users. The tests themselves are merely tools, with characteristics that can be measured with reasonable precision under specified condition. Whether the results will be valuable, meaningless, or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user.All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance. How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted. Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.Standardized tests should be considered in this context: they provide a quick, objective method of getting some kind of information about what a person has learned, the skills he has developed, or the kind of person he is. The information so obtained has, qualitatively, the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information. Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the empirical evidence concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.In general, the tests work most effectively when the traits or qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined ( for example, ability to do well in a particular course of training program ) and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted cannot be well defined, for example, personality or creativity. Properly used, they provide a rapid means of getting comparable information about many people. Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized.1. In this passage, the author is primarily concerned with _________.A. the necessity of standardized testsB. the validity of standardized testsC. the method used to interpret standardized tests’ results.D. the theoretical grounds of standardized tests.2. The author’s attitude toward standardized tests is _______.A. criticalB. vagueC. optimisticD. positive3. What can be inferred from the passage?A. Standardized tests should no longer be used.B. Standardized tests’ results accurately reflect testees’ abilities.C. The value of standardized tests lies in their proper interpretationD. Special methods must be applied to evaluate standardized tests.4. According to the passage, an informed prediction _______.A. can surely be validated by later performanceB. is based on abundant and the most reliable informationC. always tends to be wrong like other predictions tooD. don’t need any interpretation5. According to the passage, standardized tests work most effectively when ____________.A. the objectives to be measured are most precisely defined.B. the user knows how to interpret the results in advance.C. the persons who take the test are intelligent or skillful.D. they measure the traits or qualities of the testsPassage 2A quality education is the basic liberator. It can free people from poverty, giving them the power to greatly improve their lives and take a productive place in society. It can also free communities and countries,allowing them to jump forward into periods of wealth and social unity that otherwise would not be possible. For this reason,the international community has devoted itself to getting all the world’s children into primary school by 2015,a commitment known as Education for All.Can education for All be achieved by 2015? The answer is undoubtedly “yes”,although it is a difficult task.If we now measure the goal in terms of children successfully completing a minimum five years of primary school,instead of just enrolling(注册)for classes,which used to be the measuring stick for education,the challenge will become even more difficult.Only 32 countries were formerly believed to be at risk of not achieving education for all on the basis of enrollment rates.The number rises to 88 if completion rates are used as the standard. Still,the goal is achievable with the right policies and the right support from the international community.59 of the 88 countries at risk can reach universal primary completion by 2015 if they bring the efficiency and quality of their education systems into line with standards observed in higher-performing systems.They also need significant increases in external financing and technical support.The 29 countries lagging farthest behind will not reach the goal without unprecedented rates of progress.But this is attainable with creative solutions,including the use of information technologies,flexible and targeted foreign aid,and fewer people living in poverty.A new plan for achieving global education targets is to be put to development and finance ministers at ameeting of the World Bank’s Development Committee.A key lesson of experience about what makes development effective is that a country’s capacity to use aid well depends heavily on its policies,institutions and management.Where a country scores well on these standards,foreign assistance can be highly effective.The new action plan calls on governments to show their commitment by transforming their education systems. Meanwhile, external partners would provide financial and technical support in a transparent manner.6.In the first paragraph,the author says a quality education has the function of_________.A. helping countries free from foreign rulesB. letting people get rid of any exploitationC. giving people more freedomD. speeding up the progress of society7.According to the international community, the goal of Education for All is to ____.A. get all children to achieve education on the base of enrollment ratesB. make all the children in the world go to primary school by 2015C. let poor children have the same chances as rich ones to go to schoolD. support those countries determined to transform their education systems8. In the past, the enrollment of students for classed played a part of ______.A. ensuring children to complete five years’ education successfullyB. measuring the standard of educationC. measuring teachers’ teaching levelsD. attempting to make all the children in poor countries well educated9. According to the passage, which of the following belongs to the right policy of achieving Education for All?A. Setting up more primary schools.B. Speeding up the development of economy first.C. Using information technologies.D. Increasing the internal financing.10. We can know from the last paragraph that the high efficiency of foreign aid ______.A. depends on a country’s high standards of policies, institutions and managementB. is mainly achieved in those observing high-performing educational systemsC. is the most essential for helping the poor get rid of povertyD. is the most important policy for achieving Education for AllPassage 3.We sometimes think humans are uniquely vulnerable to anxiety, but stress seems to affect the immune defenses of lower animals too. In one experiment, for example, behavioral immunologist (免疫学家)Mark Laudenslager, at the University of Denver, gave mild electric shocks to 24 rats. Half the animals could switch off the current by turning a wheel in their enclosure, while the other half could not. The rats in the two groups were paired so that each time one rat turned the wheel it protected both itself and its helpless partner from the shock. Laudenslager found that the immune response was depressed below normal in the helpless rats but not in those that could turn off the electricity. What he has demonstrated, he believes, is that lack of control over an event, not the experience itself, is what weakens the immune system.Other researchers agree. Jay Weiss, a psychologist at Duke University School of Medicine, has shown thatanimals who are allowed to control unpleasant stimuli don’t develop sleep disturbances or changes in brain chemistry typical of stressed rats. But if the animals are confronted with situations they have no control over, they later behave passively when faced with experiences they can control. Such findings reinforce psychologists’ suspicions that the experience or perception of helplessness is one of the most harmful factors in depression.One of the most startling examples of how the mind can alter the immune response was discovered by chance. In 1975 psychologist Robert Ader at the University of Rochester School of Medicine conditioned (使形成条件反射) mice to avoid saccharin(糖精)by simultaneously feeding them the sweetener and injecting them with a drug that while suppressing their immune systems caused stomach upsets. Associating the saccharin with the stomach pains, the mice quickly learned to avoid the sweetener. In order to extinguish this dislike for the sweetener, Ader re-exposed the animals to saccharin, this time without the drug, and was astonished to find that those mice that had received the highest amounts of sweetener during their earlier conditioning died. He could only speculate that he had so successfully conditioned the rats that saccharin alone now served to weaken their immune systems enough to kill them.11. Laudenslager’s experiment showed that the immune system of those rats who could turn off theelectricity____.A. was strengthenedB. was not affectedC. was alteredD. was weakened12. According to the passage, the experience of helplessness causes rats to______ .A. try to control unpleasant stimuliB. turn off the electricityC. behave passively in controllable situationsD. become abnormally suspicious13. The reason why the mice in Ader’s experiment avoided saccharin was that ______.A. they disliked its tasteB. it affected their immune systemsC. it led to stomach painsD. they associated it with stomachaches14. The passage tells us that the most probable reason for the death of the mice in Ader’s experiment wasthat_____ .A. they had been weakened psychologically by the saccharinB. the sweetener was poisonous to themC. their immune systems had been altered by the mindD. they had taken too much sweetener during earlier conditioning15. It can be concluded from the passage that the immune systems of animals_______.A. can be weakened by conditioningB. can be suppressed by drug injectionsC. can be affected by frequent doses of saccharinD. can be altered by electric shocksPassage 4As one works with color in a practical or experimental way, one is impressed by two apparently unrelated facts. Color as seen is a mobile changeable thing depending to a large extent on the relationship of the color to other colors seen simultaneously. It is not fixed in its relation to the direct stimulus which creates it. On the other hand, the properties of surfaces that give rise to color do not seem to change greatly under a wide variety of illumination colors, usually looking much the same in artificial light as in daylight. Both of these effects seem to be due in large part to the mechanism of color adaptation mentioned earlier.When the eye is fixed on a colored area, there is an immediate readjustment of the sensitivity of the eye to color in and around the area viewed. This readjustment does not immediately affect the color seen but usually does affect the next area to which the gaze is shifted. The longer the time of viewing, the higher the intensity, and the larger the area, the greater the effect will be in terms of its persistence in the succeeding viewing situation. As indicated by the work of Wright and Schouten, it appears that, at least for a first approximation, full adaptation takes place over a very brief time if the adapting source is moderately bright and the eye has been in relative darkness just previously. As the stimulus is allowed to act, however, the effect becomes more persistent in the sense that it takes the eye longer to regain its sensitivity to lower intensities. The net result is that, if the eye is so exposed and then the gaze is transferred to an area of lower intensity, the loss of sensitivity produced by the first area will still be present and appear as an "afterimage" superimposed on the second. The effect not only is present over the actual area causing the "local adaptation" but also spreads with decreasing strength to adjoining areas of the eye to produce "lateral adaptation." Also, because of the persistence of the effect if the eye is shifted around from one object to another, all of which are at similar brightness or have similar colors, the adaptation will tend to become uniform over the whole eye.16. This selection is concerned primarily with ____.A. the adaptation of the eye to colorB. the color of colorsC. the properties of colored surfacesD. the effect of changes in color intensity17. Whether a colored object would, on two viewings separated in time, appear to the viewer as similar or different would depend mostly on ____.A. the color mechanism of the eye in use at the time of each viewingB. what kind of viewing had immediately preceded each of the viewingsC. the properties of the surfaces viewedD. the individual's power of lateral adaptation18. If a person's eye has been looking at an object in bright sunlight for some time, and then shifts to an object not well lit --- such as a lawn or shrub in shadow --- we can expect ____.A. a time lag in the focusing ability of the eyeB. some inability to see colors of the latter---named objects until loss of sensitivity has been regainedC. the immediate loss of the "afterimage" of the first objectD. the adaptation in the central area of the eye but little adaptation in the lateral areas to the new intensitylevel19. The present selection has apparently been preceded by some explanation of ____.A. some experiments with color pigmentsB. the nature of colorC. the color properties of various surfacesD. the mechanism of the eye's adaptation to color20. This selection tells us all the following EXCEPT that ____.A. color depends on what other colors are seenB. the adjustment of the eye to the color it sees affects the next color it seesC. since properties of surfaces that give rise to color do not change, the surfaces of objects always look justthe same in artificial light as in daylightD. the adjustment of the eye is affected by three variables: size of areas, intensity of color and length of timeIII. Translation A (20 points)Directions: Translate the following passages into Chinese. Please write your version in the corresponding space on your Answer Sheet.1.Despite these distinctions, the similarities between manufacturing and service organizations are compelling.Every organization has processes that must be designed and managed effectively. Some type of technology, be it manual or computerized, must be used in each process. Every organization is concerned about quality, productivity, and the timely response to customers. A service organization, like a manufacturer, must make choices about the capacity, location, and layout of its facilities. Every organization deals with suppliers of outside services and materials, as well as scheduling problems. Matching staffing levels and capacities with forecasted demands is a universal problem. Finally, the distinctions between manufacturing and service organizations can get cloudy.2.Anger is good for you, as long as you keep it below a boil, according to a new psychology research basedon face reading. People who respond to stressful situations with short-term anger or indignation have a sense of control and optimism that lacks in those who respond with fear. Therefore, in maddening situations in which anger or indignation are justified, anger is not a bad idea, and the thinking goes.IV.

In her lifetime she 2 themost highly acclaimed literary award in the United States: the Pulitzer Prize,and also the most prestigious form of literary 3 in the world, the NobelPrize 4 Literature.Pearl S. Buck was almost a 5 word throughout much of her lifetimebecause of her prolific literary 6, which consisted 7 of some works, including several dozen novels, 6 collections of short stories, 14 books for children, and more than a dozen works of nonfiction.

Read the passages and then write you answers on your answer sheet.Passage OneIn the 1962 movie Lawrence of ? rabia, one scene shows an ? merican newspaper reporter eagerly snapping photos of men looting (掠夺) a sabotaged train. One of the looters, Chief ? uda abu ?ayi of the Howeitat clan, suddenly notices the camera a n d snatches it. “ ?m I in this?” he asks, before smashing it open. ?o the dismayed reporter, Lawrence explains, “He thinks these things will steal his virtue. He thinks you’re a kind of thief.”s soon as colonizers and explorers began taking cameras into distant lands, stories4began circulating about how indigenous peoples saw them as tools for black magic. ?he “ignorant natives” may have had a point. When photography first became available, scientists welcomed it as a more objective way of recording faraway societies than early travelers' exaggerated accounts. But in some ways, anthropological photographs reveal more about the culture that holds the camera than the one that stares back. Up into the 1950s and 1960s, many ethnographers(⼈种学者) sought “pure” pictures of “primitive” cultures, routinely deleting modern accoutrements such as clocks and Western dress. ? hey paid men and women to re-enact rituals or to pose as members of war or hunting parties, often with little regard for veracity. Edward Curtis, the legendary photographer of North ? merican Indians, for example, got one Makah man to pose as a whaler with a spear in1915--even though the Makah had not hunted whales in a generation.hese photographs reinforced widely accepted stereotypes that indigenous cultures were isolated, primitive, and unchanging. For instance, National Geographic magazine's photographs have taught millions of ? mericans about other cultures. ? s Catherine Lutz and Jane Collins point out in their 1993 book ?eading National Geographic, the magazine since its founding in 1888 has kept a tradition of presenting beautiful photos that don’t challenge white, middle-class ?merican conventions. While dark-skinned women can be shown without tops, for example, white women’s breasts are taboo. Photos that could unsettle or disturb, such as areas of the world torn asunder by war or famine, are discarded in favor of those that reassure, to conform with the society’s stated pledge to present only “kindly” visions of foreign societies. ?he result, Lutz and Collins say, is the depiction of “an idealized and exotic world relatively free of pain or class conflict.”Lutz actually likes National Geographic a lot. She read the magazine as a child, and its lush imagery influenced her eventual choice of anthropology as a career. She just thinks that as people look at the photographs of other cultures, they should be alert to the choice of composition and images.1.?he main idea of the passage is .. Photographs taken by Western explorers reflect more Westerners’ perception of5the indigenous cultures and the Western values.B.?here is a complicated relationship between the Western explorers and theprimitive peoples.C.Popular magazines such as National Geographic should show pictures of theexotic and idealized worlds to maintain high sales.D.?nthropologists ask the natives to pose for their pictures, compromising thetruthfulness of their pictures.2.We can infer from the passage that early travelers to the native lands often.. took pictures with the nativesB.gave exaggerated accounts of the native landsC.ask for pictures from the nativesD.gave the natives clocks and Western dresses3.?he author mentions the movie Lawrence of ?rabia to .. show how people in the indigenous societies are portrayed by Westerners.B.illustrate how people from primitive societies see cameras as tools of blackmagic that steal their virtues.C.show how anthropologists portray untruthful pictures of native people.D.show the cruel and barbarian side of the native people.4.“But in some ways, anthropological photographs reveal more about the culturethat holds the camera than the one that stares back.” In this sentence, the “one (culture) that stares back”refers to .. the indigenous cultureB.the Western cultureC.the academic cultureD.the news business culture5.With which of the following statements would Catheroine Lutz most probablyagree?. eporters from the Western societies should routinely delete modernelements in pictures taken of the indigenous societies.6B.?he primitive cultures are inferior to the more advanced Western c ulture.C.?he western media are not presenting a realistic picture of the farawaysocieties.D.People in the Western news business should try not to challenge the well-established white middle-class values.Passage Twohe entertainment profession, or “show business”, attracts many young people. Unfortunately, only very few can hope to become famous and successful. ?alent is not enough, because show business is as competitive as any other business. Without a good manager, the performer can never hope to succeed. Fashion is important in this business, too. ?he best tailor in the world will never be a success if he makes old-fashioned clothes. In exactly the same way, a performer must change his “act” in order to follow the taste of the moment. ?his is true for actors, dancers and comedians, but perhaps most of all for singers.“Pop” stands for “popular”, and a pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must either give the public what they already want or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded, his records are sold everywhere, he cannot relax. ?hen he must work harder than ever to stay popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.he life of a successful pop singer is not all easy. He can only relax when he is alone, because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the “fans”. ?he fans are the most important people in the world for the singer. ?hey buy his records, they go to his concerts, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very annoying, too. Sometimes their enthusiasm goes out of control that they do anything to get something from you for memory. ?hey steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off piece of the unfortunate singer’s hair. Many singers have been stripped practically naked by their fans. ? pop singer has to spend a lot of money on clothes, because he must always look smart, or, at any rate, different. He must have a luxurious car. ?nd –most important –he must7always keep smiling for the benefit of his public.6.In order to become a successful performer in show business, one must have.. good appearance B. a lot of moneyC. good chanceD. talent, fashion and a good manner7.?he example of “the tailor” is cited here to explain that .. clothes that the tailor made is vital to performers’ successB.performers have to change their performances to be popularC.performers should do the same thing as a tailor doesD.performers can never succeed without the tailor8.When a pop singer has become famous, he must work hard to .. attract the public B. remain popularC. sell more recordsD. earn more money9.It can be inferred that the fans’ over-enthusiastic b ehaviors sometimes .. express their dislike for the singersB.make the singers more popularC.show their likes and respect for the singersD.make the singers feel embarrassed10.From the last paragraph we know that a pop singer .. can relax only after he is successfulB.must pay much attention to his clothesC.can enjoy his life at willD.is often annoyed by his fansPIV TRANSLATION (20 Points)Translate the following passage into proper Chinese.ranslators will always use bilingual dictionaries alongside other reference material, and therefore need to be aware of the limitations as well as the strengths of the bilingual dictionaries; they must know their way around them and how to use themefficiently, and need to keep them up to date. I believe, however, that in the training translators receive, learning to “release words from the unconscious memory hold” plays a crucial part; as linguists, we have a capital of words, collocations and phrases8that is often much larger and richer than we give ourselves credit for, and bilingual dictionaries need to be approached as tools in helping us to exploit this resource rather than as replacements for it. ?here could also be instances when the bilingual di ctionary may not be the translator’s best friend and “intelligent guessing” may be a complementary or even an alternative, and better strategy.PV WRITING (20 Points)Write an essay of about 200 words on the following topic:Electronic Dictionaries or Traditional Paper Ones?You are to write in three parts:In the first part, state specifically what your opinion is.In the second part, support your opinion with one or two reasons.In the last part, bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary. Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the instructions may result in a loss of marks.9。

Choose the best word(s) for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on your ANSWER SHEET.The human nose is an underrated tool. Humans are often thought to be insensitive smellers compared with animals, 41 this is largely because, 42 animals, we stand upright. This means that our noses are 43 to perceiving those smells which float through the air, 44 the majority of smells which stick to surfaces. In fact, 45 , we are extremely sensitive to smells, 46 we do not generally realize it. Our noses are capable of 47 human smells even when these are 48 to far below one part in one million.Strangely, some people find that they can smell one type of flower but not another, 49 others are sensitive to the smells of both flowers. This may be because some people do not have the genes necessary to generate 50 smell receptors in the nose. These receptors are the cells which sense smells and send 51 to the brain. However, it has been found that even people insensitive to a certain smell 52 can suddenly become sensitive to it when 53 to it often enough.The explanation for insensitivity to smell seems to be that the brain finds it 54 to keep all smell receptors working all the time but can 55 new receptors if necessary. This may 56 explain why we are not usually sensitive to our own smells—we simply do not need to be. We are not 57 of the usual smell of our own house, but we 58 new smells when we visitsomeone else’s. The brain finds it best to keep smell receptors 59 for unfamiliar and emergency signals 60 the smell of smoke, which might indicate the danger of fire.41. [A] but [B] as [C] although [D] while42.

Each indicated line contains a maximum of ONE error. In each case, only ONE word is involved. You should proofread the passage and correct it in the following way:For a wrong word, underline the wrong word and write the correctone in the blank provided at the end of the line. For a missing word, mark the position of the missing word with a“∧” sign and write the word you believe to bemissing in the blank provided at the end of theline.For an unnecessary word, cross out the unnecessary word with a slash “/”and put the word in the blank provided at theend of the line.EXAMPLEWhen ∧art museum wants a new exhibit, (1) an it never buys things in finished form and hangs (2) never them on the wall. When a natural historymuseum wants an exhibition, it must often build (3)exhibitit.Recently, a possible alternative way of producing paper has been suggested by agriculturalists and environmentalists: a plant called hemp.Hemp has been cultivated by many cultures for thousandsof years. It produces fiber which can be made paper, fuel, oils, textiles, food, and rope. For many centuries, it was essential to the economies of many countries because it used to make the ropes and cables used on sailing ships; colonial expansion and the establishment of a world-wide trading network would have been possible without hemp. Nowadays, ships’ cables are usually made from wire or synthetic fibers, and scientists are now suggesting that the cultivation of hemp should be revived for the production of paper and pulp. According to its proponents, four times as that much paper can be produced from land, using hemp rather than trees.However, there is a problem: hemp is illegal in many countries of the world. This plant, so useful for fiber, rope, oil, fuel and textiles, is species of cannabis, related to the plant which marijuana is produced. In the late 1930s, a movement to ban the drug marijuana began to gather force, resulted in the eventual banning of the cultivation not only of the plant used to producing the drug, but also of the commercial fiber-producing 61. __________62. __________63. __________64. __________65. __________66. __________67. __________68. __________69. __________70. __________ hemp plant—despite the fact marijuana cannot be producedfrom the hemp plant, since it contains almost no THC (theactive ingredient in the drug).PART IV READING COMPREHENSION [30 POINTS] Directions: In this part there are four reading passages followed by a total of twenty multiple-choice questions. Read the passages and then mark your answers on the answer sheet.TEXT A (5 points)During the 1970’s and 1980’s political extremism and terrorism frequently focused on “national liberation” and economic issues. The collapse of the Soviet bloc, and the ending of its covert funding and encouragement of terrorism led to a decline in the militant and violent left-wing terrorist groups that was a feature of the age.The 1990s have seen the development of a “new terrorism”. This is not to say that state-backed terrorism has ceased, but rather that the spectrum of terrorism has widened. The new terrorism may seek out military or government targets, but it also seeks out symbolic civilian targets, and the victims have mostly been innocent civilians.Growing concern about this new terrorism has been paralleled by concern about the employment of the new information and communication technologies (ICTs).ICTs offer a new dimension for political extremists and terrorists. They allow the diffusion of command and control; they allow boundless new opportunities forcommunication, and they allow the players to target the information stores, processes and communications of their opponents. The sophistication of the modern nation-state, and its dependency on computer-based ICTs, make the state ever more vulnerable.The use of ICTs to influence, disrupt or damage a nation, its institutions or population by influencing the media, or by subversion, has been called “netwar”. The full range of weapons in the cyberspace armory can be employed in netwar; from propaganda campaigns at one level to interference with databases and networks at the other. What particularly distinguishes netwar from other forms of war is that it targets information and communications, and may be used to alter thinking or disrupt planned actions. In this sense it can be distinguished from earlier forms of warfare — economic wars that target the means of production, and political wars that target leadership and government.Netwar is therefore of particular interest to those engaged in non-military war, or those operating at sub-state level. Clearly nation-states might also consider it as an adjunct to military war or as an option prior to moving on to military war. So far, however, it appears to be of greater interest to extremist advocacy groups and terrorists. Because there are no physical limits or boundaries, netwar has been adopted by groups who operate across great distances or transnationally. The growth of such groups, and their growing powers in relation to those of nation states, suggests an evolving power-based relationship for both. Military strategist Martin Van Creveld has suggested that war in the future is more likely to be waged between such groups and states rather than between states and states.Most modern adversaries of nation states in the realm of low intensity conflict, such as international terrorists, single-issue extremists and ethnic and religious extremists are organized in networks, although their leadership may sometimes be hierarchical. Law enforcement and security agencies therefore often have difficulty in engaging in low intensity conflict against such networks because they are ill suited to do so. Their doctrine, training and modus(形式) of operation have, all too often, been predicated on combating a hierarchy of command, like their own.Only now are low-intensity conflict and terrorism recognized as “strategic” threats to nation-states, and countries which until very recently thought that terrorism was something that happened elsewhere, have become victims themselves.The Tokyo subway attacked by the Aum Shinriko and the Oklahoma City bombing would have been unthinkable a generation ago, and not only was the civil population unprepared, but also law enforcement. And this despite clear warning signs that such attacks were in the offing.The potential for physical conflict to be replaced by attacks on information infrastructures has caused states to rethink their concepts of warfare, threats and national assets, at a time when information is recognized as a national asset. The adoption of new information technologies and the use of new communication media, such as the Internet, create vulnerabilities that can be exploited by individuals, organizations and state.71. Which of the following is a major feature of the new terrorism?[A] It obtains financial support from foreign powers[B] It focuses on military targets of the enemy states.[C] It tends to be organized in a hierarchical manner[D] It may choose important civilian targets to attack.72. Netwar should be understood as a war aimed at __________.[A] disrupting the enemy’s communication systems[B] damaging the institutions of the enemy state[C] manipulating the enemy’s means of production[D] destroying the leadership of the enemy state73. We can infer from the passage that ___________.[A] traditional terrorism was mainly driven by religious fervor[B] ideological differences will continue to be a cause of terrorism[C] attacks from small terrorist groups will increasing[D] the high-tech weapons will greatly facilitate terrorist attacks74. The best title of the passage is ____________.[A] ICT: A New Weapon for Terrorism[B] Netwar: An unfamiliar Form of Warfare[C] Internet: A Vulnerable Target of Extremists[D] “New Terrorism”: A Real Threat to the World75. The main difficulty the police have in combating terrorist groups is _________.[A] their poor equipment[B] the insufficiency of budget[C] the police’s obsolete(陈旧的) way of command[D] the transnational nature of the new terrorismTEXT B (10 points)If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercises and as a result, we are ageing unnecessarily soon.Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of ageing could be slowed down.With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations.Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volume of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. (The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties.)Contraction of front and side parts as cells die off was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and seventy-year-olds.Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age—using the head.The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa, are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brainsas the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant.Matsuzawa's findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. “The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain," he says, “Think hard and engage in conversation. Don’t rely on pocket calculator."76. The team of doctors wanted to find out[A] why certain people age sooner than others.[B] how to make people live longer.[C] the size of certain people's brains.[D] which people are most intelligent.77. On what are their research findings based?[A] A survey of farmers in northern Japan.[B] Tests performed on a thousand old people.[C] The study of brain volumes of different people.[D] The latest development of computer technology.78. The doctor's tests show that[A] our brains shrink as we grow older[B] the front section of the brain does not shrink.[C]sixty-year-olds have better brains than thirty-year-olds.[D]some people's brains have contracted more than other people's79. The word “subjects" in Paragraph 5 means[A] something to be considered.[B] branches of knowledge studied.[C] persons chosen to be studied in an experiment.[D] any member of a state except the supreme ruler.80. According to the passage, which people seem to age slower than the others?[A] Lawyers. [B] Farmers. [C] Clerks. [D] Shop assistants. TEXT C (5 points)Harry Houdini, who died in 1927, was the entertainment phenomenon of the ragtime era. He could escape from chains and padlocks, from ropes and canvas sacks. They put him in a strait-jacket and hung him upside down from a skyscraper and he somehow untied himself. They tied him up in a locked packing case and sank him in Liverpool docks. Minutes later he surfaced smiling. They locked him in a zinc-lined Russian prison van and he emerged leaving the doors locked and the locks undamaged. They padlocked him in a milk churn(搅乳器) full of water and he burst free. They put him in a coffin, screwed down the lid, and buried him and…, well, no, he didn’t pop up like a mole, but when they dug him up more than half an hour later, he was still breathing.Houdini would usually allow his equipment to be examined by the audience. The chains, locks and packing cases all seemed perfectly genuine, so it was tempting to conclude that he possessed superhuman powers. Sir Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes was the very paragon(模范) of analytical thinking but Conan Doyle believed that Houdini achieved his tricks through spiritualism. Indeed, he wrote to the escapologist(表演脱身术的人) imploring him to use his psychic powers more profitably for the common good instead of just prostituting his talent every night at the Alhambra. However, Houdini repeatedly denounced spiritualismand disclaimed any psychic element to his act.The alternative explanation for his feats of escapism was that Houdini could do unnatural things with his body. It widely held that he could dislocate his shoulders to escape from strait-jackets, and that he could somehow contract his wrists in order to escape from handcuffs. His ability to spend long periods in confined spaces is cited as evidence that he could put his body into suspended animation, as Indian fakirs are supposed to do.This is all nonsense. If you ever find yourself in a strait-jacket, it’s difficult to imagine anything less helpful than a dislocated shoulder. Contracting your wrists is not only unhelpful but, frankly, impossible because the bones of your wrist are very tightly packed together and the whole structure is virtually incompressible. As for suspended animation, the trick of surviving burial and drowning relies on the fact that you can live for short periods on the air in a confined space. The air shifted by an average person in a day would occupy a cube just eight feet square. The build-up of carbon monoxide tends to pollute this supply, but, if you can relax, the air in a coffin should keep you going for half an hour or so.In other word, there was nothing physically remarkable about Houdini except for his bravery, dexterity(灵巧) and fitness. His nerve was so cool that he could remain in a coffin six feet underground until they came to dig him up. His fingers were so strong that he could undo a buckle or manipulate keys through the canvas of a strait-jacket or a mail bag. He made a comprehensive study of locks and was able to conceal lock-picks about his person in a way which fooled even the doctors who examined him. When they locked him in the prison van he still had a hacksaw(钢锯)blade with which to saw through the joins in the metal lining and get access to the planks of the floor. As an entertainer he combined all this strength and ingenuity with a lot of trickery. His stage escapes took place behind a curtain with an orchestra playing to disguise the banging and sawing. The milk churn in which he was locked had a double lining so that, while the lid was locked onto the rim, the rim was not actually attached to the churn. Houdini merely had to stand up to get out. The mail sack he cut open at the seam and sewed up with similar thread. The bank safe from which he emerged had been secretly worked on by his mechanics for 24 hours before the performance.All Houdini’s feats are eminently explicable, although to explain them, even now, is a kind of heresy. Houdini belongs to that band of mythical supermen who, we like to believe, were capable of miracles and would still be alive today were it not for some piece of low trickery. It’s said of Houdini that a punch in his belly when he wasn’t prepared for it caused his burst appendix. Anatomically(在解剖学上), it’s virtually impossible that a punch could puncture your gut, but the story endures. Somehow the myth of the superman has an even greater appeal than the edifice of twenty-first century logic.81. In the first paragraph, what does the writer say Houdini managed to do?[A]. Jump upside down from a skyscraper.[B]. Safely escape from a submerged box.[C]. Break the locks of a prison van from inside.[D]. Escape from a buried coffin unhurt.82. The writer mentions Houdini’s burial alive to show that _________.[A]. his tricks sometimes went disastrously wrong.[B]. he was not always able to do what he claimed he could[C]. he was capable of extraordinary feats of survival[D]. his fear of confined spaces could readily be overcome83. The writer suggests that Conan Doyle __________.[A]. was less analytical about Houdini than one might have expected[B]. asked Houdini if he could include him in a Sherlock Holmes story[C]. felt that Houdini could make more money in other ways[D]. thought there were scientific explanations for Houdini’s feats84. The writer comes to the conclusion that Houdini __________.[A]. had an unusual bone structure[B]. could make parts of his body smaller[C]. could make himself fall asleep easily[D]. was not physically abnormal85. It appears that Houdini was able to escape from a strait-jacket by __________.[A]. hiding a lock-pick in his pocket[B]. undoing its buckles with his fingers[C]. cutting the canvas with a hacksaw[D]. using a blade he had concealedTEXT D (10 points)Austin Texas — The exasperated helpline caller said she couldn’t get her new Dell Computer to turn on. A Dell Computer Corp technician made sure the computer was plugged in and then asked the woman what happened when shepushed the power button. “I’ve pushed and pushed on this foot pedal and nothing happens,” the woman replied. “Foot pedal?” the technician asked. “Yes,” the woman said, “this little white foot pedal with the on switch.” The “foot pedal”, it turned out, was the computer’s mouse, a hand-operated device that helps to control the computer’s operations.Personal computer makers are discovering that it’s still a low-tech world out there. While they are finally having great success selling PCs to households, they now have to deal with people to whom monitors and disk drivers are as foreign as another language.“It is rather mystifying to get this nice, beautiful machine and not know anything about it,” says a technician who helps field consumer calls at Dell’s headquarters here. “It’s going into unfamiliar territory. People are looking for a comfort level.”Only two years ago, most calls to PC help lines came from techniques needing help on complex problems. But now, with computer sales to homes exploding as new “multimedia” functions gain mass appeal, PC makers say that as many as 70% of their calls come from rank novices(新手). Partly because of the volume of calls, some computer companies have started charging helpline users.The questions are often so basic that they could have been asked by opening the manual that comes with every machine. One woman called Dell’s toll-free line to ask how to install batteries in her laptop. When told that the directions were on the first page of the manual, the woman replied angrily. “I just spent $2,000 for this damn thing, and I’m not going to read a book.”Indeed, it seems that these buyers barely refer to a manual when a phone is at hand. If there is a book and a phone and they’re side by side, the phone wins time after time. It’s phenomenon of people wanting to talk to people.And the Computer Corp Compaq’s help center in Houston, Texas, is inundated(淹没) by some 8,000 consumer calls a day, with unbelievable inquiries like this one: a frustrated customer called, who said her brand new Compaq would not work. She had unpacked the unit, plugged it in, opened it up and, sat there for something to happen. When asked what happened when she pressed the power switch, she asked, “What power switch?”Seemingly simple computer features baffle some users. So many people have called to ask where the “any” key is when “Press Any Key” flashes on the screen that Compaq is considering changing the command to “Press Return Key”.Some people can’t figure out the mouse. One consumer complained that her mouse was hard to control with the “dust” cover on. The cover turned out to be the plastic bag the mouse was packaged in. Another consumer held the mouse and pointed it at the screen, all the while clicking madly. He got no response because the mouse works if it’s moved over a flat surface.A customer dutifully compiled with a technician’s request that she send in a copy of defective floppy disk. A letter from the customer arrived a few days later, along with a Xerox copy of the floppy.And at Dell, a technician advised his customer to put his troubled floppy back in the drive and “close the door”. Asking the technician, to “hold on”, the customer put the phone down and was heard walking over to shut the door to his room. The。
