Por eso, un día preguntó a su maestro —Señor, ¿qué es la verdad?, ¿dónde está?—La verdad está en todas partes, en la vida de cada día— respondió el sabio.—Pero yo no la veo—replicóel discípulo —a mi alrededor, solo percibo monotonía, rutina y vulgaridad.El maestro contestó—Esa es precisamente la diferencia, tú no la ves y yo sí.En realidad, todos estamos sujetos a la catatimia, es decir, a ver las cosas como quisiéramos que fuesen en vez de verlas como son en realidad. En este principio, se basa la conocida frase del poeta “todo se ve del color del cristal con que se mira”, que es lo mismo que decir todo se ve de acuerdo con lo que se desea ver.Pensamos como deseamos que sean las cosas, no como son. La lámpara del cuerpo es el ojo, mejor dicho, uno de los grandes maestros de la historia. Cuando tu ojo fuere bueno, todo tu cuerpo estaráiluminado, mas cuando fuere malo, todo tu cuerpo quedará en tinieblas. Mira, pues, no sea que la luz que hay en ti sea oscuridad.No es fácil ver la realidad. El célebre filósofo Platón escribióuna intrigante historia conocida como La alegoría de la caverna, en la que plantea un supuesto acerca de la extraña existencia de unos personajes en el interior de una cueva. Están convencidos de (que) todo lo que ven desfilar ante sus ojos es la realidad misma, desconociendo que es solo una proyección de objetos, muebles y personas originadas por una hoguera que actuaba como foco luminoso. Y al igual que aquellos personajes de la cueva, hoy nosotros seguimos creyendo que lo que vemos es lo que es.Según la ancestral enseñanza oriental, la realidad es inmutable e inmóvil, y por ende, el mundo que vemos, el universo manifiesto que se encuentra en un estado de flujo perpetuo, es pura ilusión, es malla. Según esta concepción, el universo manifiesto no es más que algo supuesto sobre lo real, algo proyectado sobre lapantalla de la realidad, de manera muy semejante a como en cine se proyecta una película en la pantalla.Hoy la ciencia de la física cuántica, la que estudia las partículas subatómicas, nos dice que la apariencia de solidez que percibimos en la materia es algo creado por el movimiento o la vibración, un error de percepción. Por este motivo, cuando un ventilador estáen movimiento, lo percibimos erróneamente como un círculo completo.Afortunadamente, parte de la humanidad estásaliendo hoy de la cueva y despertando de su letargo secular, comprendiendo que el alma humana no actúa libremente, sino desde un estado condicionado. Un gran paso para la liberación.José Antonio Hernández, Radio 5, todo Noticias.Texto DosLos 6 grados de separación01-Voz F.: Bien, pues ha llegado nuevamente Carlos Bautista, editor de la revista Algarabía, ¡bienvenido a la Hora Nacional! Carlos, hoy vamos a hablar de un tema muy interesante, porque además, esto que todos hemos jugado de alguna forma, ¿no?, el de los 6 grados de separación, (¡Ah, sí!) el mito de los 6 grados de separación, Carlos, ¡bienvenido!02-Voz M.: Los que no conozcan nada de esto no tienen ni idea, nos separan 6 personas, de cualquier persona del mundo, ¿sería la premisa?Carlos: Es la premisa pero es falsa.01-Voz F. (02-Voz M.): (Ah, vale.) Esto es lo que me gusta, Carlos, que siempre la cambia. (Yo, me están emocionando los 6 grados de...)Carlos: Eso lo que todo el mundo cree, (eso de) las redes sociales, pero es falso. Esa idea, ni siquiera es una teoría, ¿no?, es una hipótesis científica, porque no hubo un estudio alrededor de ello, fue propuesta por primera vez en 1929 por el escritor húngaro Frigyes Karinthy en un cuento llamado Chains. En este cuento él habla de que todo el mundo está entrelazado por algo, ¿no?, en sus actos... Sí, pero es ficción. En 1967, el profesor de psicología Stanley Milgram puso a sus estudiantes a que eligieran un grupo de personas al azar en los estados de Kansas y Nebraska. A estos les lla mó “iniciadores” para que enviaran sobres por correo a través de una cadena de “solo conocidos” a otras personas, o “destinatarios”. Tres son seleccionadas, que vienen de ciudades como Cambridge o Boston. Y bueno, eh..., debían limitar enviarles sobres a gente que conocían personalmente, por lo que no podían mandarles de manera directa y sin escalas al destinatario final. Eh, después del estudio, Milgram (eh) señaló que las cadenas que unían iniciador con destinatario tenían entre 2 y 10 personas intermedias con un promedio de 5. De ahísale la famosa idea de los 6 grados de separación. Este resultado empírico que origina la frase “los 6 grados de separación”, y la leyenda científica surgió incluso, a pesar de que el propio Milgram escribió que los 6 punto cuatro saltos en promedio que se requerían para conectar a iniciador con destinatario correspondían solo al 30% a las cadenas que habían logrado su propósito, es decir, 70% de los que empezaron el experimento no hubo manera de ligarlos. Y eso, que son gente con una dirección en específico, que tienen una..., digamos, como una ubicación semiurbana o urbana, si los potencias que no sean un pescador que vive en Tanzania, que no tienen una dirección directa, por más que le pongas mil contactos, no vas a dar con él.02-Voz M.:Pero espérame Carlos, ¿quién juega con nosotros? ¿por qué eso es uno de los fenómenos de masas, de psicología de masas, y la creemos de repentetodos, y tiene un alcance viral? ¿quién crea estas, estas... o quién juega con estas teorías y de repente las tomamos como ciertas sin saber ni siquiera de dónde viene?Carlos: Bueno, obviamente es el negocio atrás de la creación de esta famosa y gran red social, que es lo que prometía, ¿no?, sin importar a quién buscaras, te llevaba a menos 6 personas, podías contactar a esa persona.01-Voz F.: Y no.Carlos: En ciertas condiciones, en este caso, la red social empezó con un... con un universitario, o sea, empezó con un espectro muy pequeño de gente que tiene, pues no solo... pues una dirección física sino correo electrónico, una computadora, y se va haciendo más pequeño el...02-Voz M.: Es decir, se achica el mundo, pero no tanto como esta teoría nos quiere vender.Carlos: Exacto.01-Voz F.: Entonces, ¿a cuántos estamos, a cuántos grados de separación estamos, Carlos?Carlos: Bueno, tú y yo estamos aquí, estamos a un grado de separación.01-Voz F.: Carlos, pues te esperamos por acá la próxima semana.Carlos: Gracias.02-Voz M.: Hasta la próxima, continuamos esta noche en la Hora Nacional.Texto TresEl Tribunal de Cuentas detecta irregularidades en las subvencionespara cursos de formaciónEl Tribunal de Cuentas ha detectado irregularidades en las subvenciones para cursos de formación concedidas a empresas y sindicatos en 2010. En su informe, el tribunal habla de menoscabo de los caudales públicos y de excesiva sobrecontratación por parte de las empresas que recibían las ayudas.El Tribunal asegura que patronales y sindicatos contrataban en exceso y de manera injustificada a empresas especializadas para dar los cursos de formación.La ley sólo permite hacerlo hasta la mitad de los cursos, pero en 2010 de los 300 convenios firmados, el 75% superaba ese límite y algunos incluso se subcontrataron al 100%. Un procedimiento que convierte a estas empresas especializadas, dice el Tribunal, en las beneficiarias de hecho de las subvenciones. En 2010 superaron los 400 millones de euros. La Fundación Laboral de la Construcción detalla el informe, contratócursos directamente, sin solicitar previamente tres ofertas, por más de 12 millones de euros. CEPYME lo hizo por 7.700.000 y CEOE, por encima de 4 millones. UGT, por algo más de un millón de euros. Algunas de estas organizaciones, dicen, que actuaron siempre dentro de la legalidad y que subcontratar no significa desviar fondos.Según el Tribunal de Cuentas los beneficiarios de los fondos no tenían ningún sistema para controlar las horas que los trabajadores dedicaban a los cursos. El Ministerio de Empleo asegura que hoy la norma es distinta a la de 2010, lo que garantiza una mayor eficiencia y calidad de una formación.。

Read the passages and then mark the best answer to each question on ANSWER SHEET TWO.TEXT AI used to look at my closet and see clothes. These days, whenever I cast my eyes upon the stacks of shoes and hangers of shirts, sweaters and jackets, I see water.It takes 569 gallons to manufacture a T-shirt, from its start in the cotton fields to its appearance on store shelves. A pair of running shoes? 1,247 gallons.Until last fall, I’d been oblivious to my “water footprint”, which is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce goods and services, according to the Water Footprint Network. The Dutch nonprofit has been working to raise awareness of freshwater scarcity since2008, but it was through the “Green Blue Book” by Thomas M. Kostigen that I was able to see how my own actions factored in.I’ve installed gray-water systems to reuse the wastewater from my laundry machine and bathtub and reroute it to my landscape - systems that save, on average, 50 gallons of water per day. I’ve set up rain barrels and infiltration pits to collect thousands of gallons of storm water cascading from my roof. I’ve even entered the last bastion of greendom -installing a composting toilet.Suffice to say, I’ve been feeling pretty satisfied with myself for all the drinking water I’ve saved with these big-ticket projects.Now I realize that my daily consumption choices could have an even larger effect –not only on the local water supply but also globally: 1.1 billion people have no access to freshwater, and, in the future, those who do have access will have less of it.To see how much virtual water 1 was using, I logged on to the “Green Blue Book” website and used its water footprint calculator, entering my daily consumption habits. Tallying up the water footprint of my breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, as well as my daily dose of over-the-counter uppers and downers - coffee, wine and beer- I’m using 512 gallons of virtual water each day just to feed myself.In a word: alarming.Even more alarming was how much hidden water I was using to get dressed. I’m hardly a clotheshorse, but the few new items I buy once again trumped the amount of water flowing from my faucets each day. If I’m serious about saving water, I realized I could make some simple lifestyle shifts. Looking more closely at the areas in my life that use the most virtual water, it was food and clothes, specifically meat, coffee and, oddly, blue jeans and leather jackets.Being a motorcyclist, I own an unusually large amount of leather - boots and jackets in particular. All of it is enormously water intensive. It takes 7,996 gallons to make a leather jacket, leather being a byproduct of beef. It takes 2,866 gallons of water to make a single pair of blue jeans, because they’re made from water-hogging cotton.Crunching the numbers for the amount of clothes I buy every year, it looks a lot like my friend’s swimming pool. My entire closet is borderline Olympic.Gulp.My late resolution is to buy some items used. Underwear and socks are, of course, exempt from this strategy, but 1 have no problem shopping less and also shopping at Goodwill. In fact, I’d been doing that for the past year to save money. My clothes’outrageous water footprint just reinforced it for me.More conscious living and substitution, rather than sacrifice, are the prevailing ideas with the water footprint. It’s one I’m trying, and that’s had an unusual upside. I had a hamburger recently, and I enjoyed it a lot more since it is now an occasional treat rather than a weekly habit.(One gallon =3.8 litres)11. According to the passage, the Water Footprint Network ______.A. worked for freshwater conservation for nonprofit purposesB. collaborated with the Green Blue Book in freshwater conservationC. made the author aware of freshwater shortageD. helped the author get to know the Green Blue Book12. Which of the following reasons can best explain the author’s feeling of self-satisfaction?A. His house was equipped with advanced water-saving facilities.B. Money spent on upgrading his household facilities was worthwhile.C. He made contribution to drinking water conservation in his own way.D. He could have made even greater contribution by changing his lifestyle.13. According to the context, “...how my own actions factored in” means ______.A. how I could contribute to water conservationB. how much of what I did contributed to freshwater shortageC. what behaviour could be counted as freshwater-savingD. what efforts I should make to save fresh water14. According to the passage, the author was more alarmed by the fact that ______.A. he was having more meat and coffeeB. his lifestyle was too extravagantC. globally there will be less fresh waterD. his clothes used even more virtual water15. “My entire closet is borderline Olympic” is an example of ______.A. exaggerationB. analogyC. understatementD. euphemism16. What is the tone of the author in the last paragraph?A. Sarcastic.B. Ironic.C. Critical.D. Humorous.TEXT BIn her novel of “Reunion, American Style”, Rona Jaffe suggests that a class reunion “is more than a sentimental journey. It is also a way of answering the question that lies at the back of nearly all our minds. Did they do better than I?”Jaffe’s observation may be misplaced but not completely lost. According to a study conducted by social psychologist Jack Sparacino, the overwhelming majority who attend reunions aren’t there invidiously to compare their recent accomplishments with those of their former classmates. Instead, they hope, primarily, to relive their earlier successes.Certainly, a few return to show their former classmates how well they have done; others enjoy observing the changes that have occurred in their classmates (not always in themselves, of course). But the majority who attend their class reunions do so to relive the good times they remember having when they were younger. In his study, Sparacino found that, as high school students, attendees had been more popular, more often regarded as attractive, and more involvedin extracurricular activities than those classmates who chose not to attend. For those who turned up at their reunions, then, the old times were also the good times!It would appear that Americans have a special fondness for reunions, judging by their prevalence. Major league baseball players, fraternity members, veterans groups, high school and college graduates, and former Boy Scouts all hold reunions on a regular basis. In addition, family reunions frequently attract blood relatives from faraway places who spend considerable money and time to reunite.Actually, in their affection for reuniting with friends, family or colleagues, Americans are probably no different from any other people, except that Americans have created a mind-boggling number and variety of institutionalized forms of gatherings to facilitate the satisfaction of this desire. Indeed, reunions have increasingly become formal events that are organized on a regular basis and, in the process, they have also become big business.Shell Norris of Class Reunion, Inc., says that Chicago alone has 1,500 high school reunions each year. A conservative estimate on the national level would be 10,000 annually. At one time, all high school reunions were organized by volunteers, usually female homemakers. In the last few years, however, as more and more women have entered the labour force, alumni reunions are increasingly being planned by specialized companies rather than by part-time volunteers.The first college reunion was held by the alumni of Yale University in 1792. Graduates of Pennsylvania, Princeton, Stanford, and Brown followed suit. And by the end of the 19th century, most 4-year institutions were holding alumni reunions.The variety of college reunions is impressive. At Princeton, alumni parade through the town wearing their class uniforms and singing their alma mater. At Marietta College, they gather for a dinner-dance on a steamship cruising the Ohio River.Clearly, the thought of cruising on a steamship or marching through the streets is usually not, by itself, sufficient reason for large numbers of alumni to return to campus. Alumni who decide to attend their reunions share a common identity based on the years they spent together as undergraduates. For this reason, universities that somehow establish a common bond –for example, because they are relatively small or especially prestigious - tend to draw substantial numbers of their alumni to reunions. In an effort to enhance this common identity, larger colleges and universities frequently build their class reunions on participation in smaller units, such as departments or schools. Or they encourage “affinity reunions” for groups of former cheerleaders, editors, fraternity members, musicians, members of military organizations on campus, and the like.Of course, not every alumnus is fond of his or her alma mater. Students who graduated during the late 1960s may be especially reluctant to get involved in alumni events. They were part of the generation that conducted sit-ins and teach-ins directed at university administrators, protested military recruitment on campus and marched against “establishment politics”. If this generation has a common identity, it may fall outside of their university ties - or even be hostile to them. Even as they enter their middle years, alumni who continue to hold unpleasant memories of college during this period may not wish to attend class reunions.17. According to the passage, Sparacino’s study ______.A. found that interest in reunions was linked with school experienceB. found evidence for attendees’ intense desire for showing off successC. showed that attendees tended to excel in high school studyD. provided strong evidence for Jaffe’s statement18. Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a distinct feature of U.S. class reunions?A. Class reunions have become a profitable business.B. Class reunions have brought about a variety of activities.C. Reunions are regular and formal events organized by professional agencies.D. U.S. class reunions are usually occasions to show off one’s recent success.19. What mainly attracts many people to return to campus for reunion?A. Shared experience beyond the campus.B. Shared undergraduate experience on campus.C. The special status their university enjoys.D. The variety of activities for class reunion.20. The rhetorical function of the first paragraph is to ______.A. serve as p relude to the author’s argumentB. prese nt the author’s counterargumentC. introduce Rona Jeffe’s novelD. bring into focus contrasting opinions21. What is the passage mainly about?A. Alumni reunions and American university traditions.B. Alumni reunion and its social and economic implications.C.

A historical perspective for alumni reunions in the United States.TEXT COne time while on his walk George met Mr. Cattanzara coming home very late from work. He wondered if he was drunk but then could tell he wasn’t. Mr. Cattanzara, a stocky, bald-headed man who worked in a change booth on an IRT station, lived on the next block after George’s, above a shoe repair store. Nights, during the hot weather, he sat on his stoop in an undershirt, reading the New York Times in the light of the shoemaker’s window. He read it from the first page to the last, then went up to sleep. And all the time he was reading the paper, his wife, a fat woman with a white face, leaned out of the window, gazing into the street, her thick white arms folded under her loose breast, on the window ledge.Once in a while Mr. Cattanzara came home drunk, but it was a quiet drunk. He never made any trouble, only walked stiffly up the street and slowly climbed the stairs into the hall. Though drunk he looked the same as always, except for his tight walk, the quietness, and that his eyes were wet. George liked Mr. Cattanzara because he remembered him giving him nickels to buy lemon ice with when he was a squirt. Mr. Cattanzara was a different type than those in the neighbourhood. He asked different questions than the others when he met you, and he seemed to know what went on in all the newspapers. He read them, as his fat sick wife watched from the window.“What are you doing with yourself this summer, George?” Mr. Cattanzara asked. “l see you walkin’ around at night.”George felt embarrassed. “I like to walk.”“What are you doin’ in the day now?”“Nothing much just now. I’m waiting for a job.” Since it shamed him to admit that he wasn’t working, George said, “I’m reading a lot to pick up my education.”“What are you readin’?”George hesitated, then said, “I got a list of books in the library once and now I’m gonna read them this summer.” He felt strange and a little unhappy saying this, but he wanted Mr. Cattanzara to respect him.“How many books are there on it?”“I never counted them. Maybe around a hundred.”Mr. Cattanzara whistled through his teeth.“I figure if l did that,” George went on earnestly, “it would help me in my education. 1 don’t mean the kind they give you in high school. I want to know different things than they learn there, if you know what I mean.”The change maker nodded. “Still and all, one hundred books is a pretty big load for one summer.”“It might take longer.”“After you’re finished with some, maybe you and I can shoot the breeze about them?" said Mr. Cattanzara.“When I’m finish ed,” George answered.Mr. Cattanzara went home and George continued on his walk. After that, though he had the urge to, George did nothing different from usual. He still took his walks at night, ending up in the little park. But one evening the shoemaker on the next block stopped George to say he was a good boy, and George figured that Mr. Cattanzara had told him all about the books he was reading. From the shoemaker it must have gone down the street, because George saw a couple of people smiling kindly at him, though nobody spoke to him personally. He felt a little better around the neighbourhood and liked it more, though not so much he would want to live in it forever. He had never exactly disliked the people in it, yet he had never liked them very much either. It was the fault of the neighbourhood. To his surprise, George found out that his father and his sister Sophie knew about his reading too. His father was too shy to say anything about it - he was never much of a talker in his whole life -but Sophie was softer to George, and she showed him in other ways she was proud of him.22. In the excerpt, Mr. Cattanzara was described as a man whoA. showed a wide interest.B. was fond of drinking.C. often worked overtime.D. liked to gossip after work.23. It can be inferred from the passage thatA. George lied at the beginning and then became seriousB. George was forced to tell a lie and then regretted.C. Mr. Cattanzara was doubtful about George throughout.D. Mr. Cannazara was surprised at George’s reading plan.24. After the street conversation with Mr. Cattanzara, George ______.A. remained the same as usualB. became more friendly with Mr. CattanzaraC. began to like his neighbours more than everD. continued to read the books from the list25. We can tell from the excerpt that George ______.A. found his neighbours liked to poke their nose into himB. found that his sister remained skeptical about himC. was dissatisfied with his life and surroundingsD. had a neither close nor distant relationship with his fatherTEXT DAbraham Lincoln turns 200 this year, and he’s beginning to show his age. When his birthday arrives, on February 12, Congress will hold a special joint session in the Capitol’s National Statuary Hall, a wreath will be laid at the great memorial in Washington, and a webcast will link school classrooms for a “teach-in” honouring his memory.Admirable as they are, though, the events will strike many of us Lincoln fans as inadequate, even halfhearted - and another sign that our appreciation for the 16th president and his towering achievements is slipping away. And you don’t have to be a Lincoln enthusiast to believe that this is something we can’t afford to lose.Compare this year’s celebration with the Lincoln centennial, in 1909. That year, Lincoln’s likeness made its debut on the penny, thanks to approval from the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury. Communities and civic associations in every comer of the country erupted in parades, concerts, balls, lectures, and military displays. We still feel the effects today: The momentum unloosed in 1909 led to the Lincoln Memorial, opened in 1922, and the Lincoln Highway, the first paved transcontinental thoroughfare.The celebrants in 1909 had a few inspirations we lack today. Lincoln’s presidency was still a living memory for countless Americans. In 2009 we are farther in time from the end of the Second World War than they were from the Civil War; families still felt the loss of loved ones from that awful national trauma.But Americans in 1909 had something more: an unembarrassed appreciation for heroes and an acute sense of the way that even long-dead historical figures press in on the present and make us who we are.One story will illustrate what l’m talking about.In 2003 a group of local citizens arranged to place a statue of Lincoln in Richmond, Virginia, former capital of the Confederacy. The idea touched off a firestorm of controversy. The Sons of Confederate Veterans held a public conference of carefully selected scholars to “reassess”the legacy of Lincoln. The verdict - no surprise - was negative: Lincoln was labeled everything from a racist totalitarian to a teller of dirty jokes.I covered the conference as a reporter, but what really unnerved me was a counter-conference of scholars to refute the earlier one. These scholars drew a picture of Lincoln that only our touchy-feely age could conjure up. The man who oversaw the most savage war in our history wasdescribed - by his admirers, remember - as “nonjudgmental,”“unmoralistic,”“comfortable with ambiguity.”I felt the way a friend of mine felt as we later watched the unveiling of the Richmond statue in a subdued ceremony: “But he’s so small!”The statue in Richmond was indeed small; like nearly every Lincoln statue put up in the past half century, it was life-size and was placed at ground level, a conscious rejection of the heroic - approachable and human, yes, but not something to look up to.The Richmond episode taught me that Americans have lost the language to explain Lincoln’s greatness even to ourselves. Earlier generations said they wanted their children to be like Lincoln: principled, kind, compassionate, resolute. Today we want Lincoln to be like us.This helps to explain the long string of recent books in which writers have presented a Lincoln made after their own image. We’ve had Lincoln as humorist and Lincoln as manic-depressive, Lincoln the business sage, the conservative Lincoln and the liberal Lincoln, the emancipator and the racist, the stoic philosopher, the Christian, the atheist - Lincoln over easy and Lincoln scrambled.What’s often missing, though, is the timeless Lincoln, the Lincoln whom all generations, our own no less than that of 1909, can lay claim to. Lucky for us, those memorializers from a century ago - and, through them, Lincoln himself- have left us a hint of where to find him. The Lincoln Memorial is the most visited of our presidential monuments. Here is where we find the Lincoln who endures: in the words he left us, defining the country we’ve inherited. Here is the Lincoln who can be endlessly renewed and who, 200 years after his birth, retains the power to renew us.26. The author thinks that this year’s celebration is inadequate and even halfhearted because______.A. no similar appreciation of Lincoln will be seenB. no activities can be compared to those in 1909C. no Lincoln statue will be unveiledD. no memorial coins will be issued27. According to the passage, what really makes the 1909 celebrations different from this year’s?A. Structures constructed in memory of Lincoln.B. Variety and magnitude of celebration activities.C.

测试项目 2 汉译西 共 10 分 El registro más temprano de la llegada de los chinos a América podría encontrarse
en los últimos años de la dinastía Ming (Es posible que los primeros chinos en llegar a América viajaran allía finale de la dinastía Ming). En aquel entonces, España había construido una ruta en el Pacífico, que cubría el trayecto (iba) desde Filipinas hasta el puerto de Acapulco en México, por la que hacían llegar (se transportaban) al continente americano productos chinos como porcelanas, sedas y lacas. Los primeros chinos que conocieron el continente fueron muy probablemente artesanos, que pisaron México siguiendo esta línea. En el Museo de Historia de este país se conservan algunos objetos de porcelana de la dinastía Ming. Según se dice, en los primeros años del siglo XIX, unos centenares de trabajadores de téarribaron a Brasil para quedarse. Sin embargo, la migración masiva al continente se produjo a mediados del mismo siglo, o sea, después de la Guerra del Opio.

以下是店铺为大家搜索整理的西班牙语专业八级口试真题及答案,希望能给大家带来帮助!现代奥运会之父顾拜旦(Coubertin)出生于巴黎的`一个贵族家庭。

父母希望他成为军人,但他却决定进入巴黎大学学习教育学。

他坚信体育锻炼对塑造性格有重要作用,主张改革法国的教育制度,在学生中积极推广竞技游戏。

1891年,在访问了古奥运会遗址的一年之后,他提出创办现代奥运会的想法,并希望以此增进各国运动员之间的友谊,促进人类和平。

经过顾拜旦多年的努力,第一届现代奥运会于1896年4月在希腊举行。

到1937年逝世为止,顾拜旦为奥运会事业奋斗了50余年。

可以说,在奥运会恢复初期,要是没有他的不懈努力,这项当今世界最大的体育盛会有可能再次推出历史的舞台。

更重要的是,虽然希腊人强调雅典应该是奥运会的永久主办地,但顾拜旦坚持认为奥运会属于全世界,应在不同国家举办。

正是因为他的坚持,奥运会的影响才不断扩大。

El padre de los Juegos Olmpicos de l aera modernaCoubertin naci en una familia aristcrata parisina. Sus padres deseaban que fuera militar, pero l decidi ir a estudiar pedagoga en la Universidad de Pars. Convencido de que los ejercicios deportivos jugaban un importante papel en la formacin de la personalidad humana, abogaba por reformar el sistema educativo de Francia, promoviendo activamente juegos competitivos entre los escolares. En 1891, un ao despus de su visita a los restos de la sede de las antiguas Olimpiadas, plante la idea de crear los Juegos Olmpicos modernos, esperando que stosfomentaron la amistad entre los deportistas de todo el mundo, as mismo contribuyen a la paz de la humanidad. Tras muchos aos de su esfuerzo, la primera Olimpiada moderna logr celebrarse en Grecia en abril de 1896.Hasta su fallecimiento en 1937, Coubertin luch más de 50 aos por la empresa olmpica. Se puede decir que, sin sus esfuerzos persistentes a comienzos del renacimiento de los Juegos Olmpicos, este gran encuentro deportivo más importante del mundo de hoy se habra retirado de nuevo del escenario histrico. Lo más importante fue que, aunque los griegos reclamaban su sede perpetua para Atenas, Coubertin sostena que los Juegos Olmpicos pertenencan a todo el mundo y que deba celebrarse en distintos pas. Fue por su insistencia por la que los Juegos Olmpicos fueron extendiendo su influencia.Texto 3UN IDIOMA DIFERENTEElías Gábalo era un buen tipo. Trabajado r, honesto, dadivoso. No tenía mayores ambiciones,pero aspiraba a una vida tranquila, con una buena mujer al lado, varios hijos, cierto bienestar,en fi n, nada del otro mundo. Y Elías Gábalo empezó por encontrar esa buena mujer con la que soñaba. Era una ch ica educada, habilidosa, discreta, honrada y, sobre todas las cosas, muy trabajadora. Le encantaba la cocina. Elías Gábalo era feliz. Había encontrado su alma gemela.Él adoraba comer. Y comer bien.El primer año de casados todos sus regalos eran en función del arte culinario. Y el segundo, también. Y el tercero. Emilita –ese era su nombre–gobernaba en la cocina con todos los elementos que cualquier ama de casa pudiera soñar.Y allí estaba Emilita, siempre fi rme en la cocina entre zapallos, perejil, dientesde ajo, pimentones o nuez moscada. Nada la hacía más feliz que revolver el caldo o espesar la salsa. Y Elías Gábalo le festejaba todos y cada uno de sus riquísimos platos.–¿Qué comemos hoy?–era el saludo habitual de Elías Gábalo a su mujer. Y no porque n o la quisiera. Al contrario, la adoraba. Pero le parecía que con esa pregunta todo estaba dicho:“Buen día, mi amor, te quiero mucho, te extrañé tanto, ¿qué sorpresa me espera?”. Y Emilita así lo interpretaba también porque inmediatamente contestaba –como si fuera un disco– el nombre del plato que había preparado.Al principio eran cosas fáciles, claro. Pero a medida que transcurría el tiempo y ella se perfeccionaba, los platos iban sofisticándose más y más. Y el diálogo entre ellos también. Si bien su conv ersación siempre había girado alrededor de la comida, de los ingredientes, las salsas, hortalizas o hierbas aromáticas, algunas veces mechaban con algún comentario del barrio, de la familia, de la situación general del país. Pero poco a poco el tema de con versación se fue reduciendo, estrechando, limitando a una sola y única cosa: la gastronomía.Se habían fabricado un diccionario tan insólito, que los vecinos cuando presenciaban un diálogo entre ellos –por casualidad–permanecían atónitos, perplejos. Los c onsideraban totalmente insanos. Alguno aventuró a anotar en una libretita los signifi cados de ciertas palabras. Había descubierto, por ejemplo, que “hacer picadillo”quería decir “hace frío”,y “cortar rodajitas”, “hace calor”, “carne mechada” era “buenos días” y “huevos rellenos”,“buenas noches”. Y así siguiendo.El barrio entero estaba intrigado con los Gábalo. Una extraña fascinación los dominaba a todos. Por lo tanto, se dedicaron a espiarlos. Entonces se percataron de que Emilita, por fi n, merceda los ruegos de madre y suegra, había quedado embarazada. ¿Dejaría un poco la cocina ahora que estaba así? ¿Dejaría de comer tanto? Milagrosa y misteriosamente Emilita dejóde atender la cocina. Estaba embelesada con el bebé que pronto llegaría. Elías Gábalo, en cambio, no se conformaba. Quería comer. Y tenía que soportar, sin embargo, la visión de montones de pañales, mamaderas, baberos, pañoletas, colchitas, sonajeros, etc. Y cuando reclamaba su bocado, su sostén vital, la razón de su vida, Emilita le alcanzaba un biberón con leche por todo alimento. ¡Ah! no, Elías Gábalo no podía tolerar tamaña impertinencia. Tan luego a él. Él, que se había desvivido por comprarle todos los elementos culinarios imaginables. Él, que había agrandado la cocina hasta convertirla en la única habitación de la casa.No, no y no. Esto no podía ser. Ya iba a ver Emilita. Y así fue cómo un día se levantó de la cama, salió de la cocina, se puso la “cacerola”, dijo “achicoria” y se fue. Y no volvió. A la hora señalada, Emilita tuvo su niño. Una criatura rozagante, rellenita, de tez rosada. Y el parto fue normal. Al principio Emilita estaba tan entretenida con su retoño, que no reparó en la falta de Elías Gábalo, pero en cuanto comenzaron a salirle dientes al niño (acto que vino acompañado de un hambre feroz y no había comida que le alcanzara), comenzó a sentir nostalgia de su media naranja.【西班牙语专业八级口试真题及答案】。

Los pensadores liberales del siglo XIX abjuraron de (摒弃) ambos ) . En Facundo –su obra clásica sobre el caudillo Facundo Quiroga, “sombra terrible” de las pampas–, Sarmiento recreó al prototipo del poder personal en el siglo XIX latinoamericano, el dueño de vidas y haciendas, hombre de horca y cuchillo, símbolo de Barbarie opuesta a la Civilización. En el siglo XX, con el advenimiento de la Revolución mexicana y labolchevique, una lenta trasmutación (演变) comenzó a operar en la realidad y la imaginación de nuestros países: la crítica del caudillo se transformó en culto al hombre fuerte; y  la Revolución adquirió el prestigio de una nueva aurora de justicia para los pueblos A)La sacralización (神圣化) de la Historia en la persona de un héroe produce la figura política de los “redentores”. En América Latina el proceso tuvo antecedentes populares en la guerra de la Independencia mexicana y en los movimientos mesiánicos (信仰救世主的) de Brasil, pero su versión moderna nace del agravio (蔑视) contra Estados Unidos a partir de la guerra de 1898. Todavía Martí,  el último liberal del XIX, pudo soñar con un mundo de repúblicas americanas, orientadas al progreso y respetuosas entre sí. B)Pero las actitudes imperiales del “monstruo” en cuyas entrañas había vivido y cuya democracia y dinamismo había admirado terminaron por decepcionarlo. Con su muerte murió también el proyecto de una América homogénea e igualitaria. Había que imaginar y construir otra América, distinta y opuesta a la del Norte .Movido por ese agravio, el pensador uruguayo José Enrique Rodó publicó en 1900 un folleto que influyó en el destino político e intelectual de “Nuestra América”. Se titulaba Ariel y postulaba un “choque de civilizaciones” entre la superior espiritualidad de Hispanoamérica y la “barbarie” materialista de Estados Unidos.Conforme avanzó el siglo, las más diversas corrientes ideológicas (el nacionalismo, el anarquismo, el socialismo, el marxismo, el indigenismo y aun el fascismo) fueron deudoras, en diversa medida, del idealismo “arielista” C) y se encarnaron en personajes con ideas o actitudes “redentoras”, como las del mexicano José Vasconcelos, que quiso ser presidente para “salvar a México” y vio en América Latina la cuna de una “Raza Cósmica”, o las más terrenales  del peruano José Carlos Mariátegui, que profetizó (预言) la convergencia revolucionaria entre el marxismo y el indigenismo.En el verano de 1968 estalló en México un movimiento estudiantil que se proponía )la apertura de espacios de libertad en un sistema autoritario. El 2 de octubre el Gobierno masacró (杀戮) a decenas de estudiantes en la plaza de Tlatelolco. A raíz de la matanza de Tlatelolco, Octavio Paz, nuestro poeta mayor, renunció a la Embajada de India.Sus lectores esperábamos su regreso para encabezar un partido revolucionario de izquierda. Pero Paz pensó que la batalla central de América Latina era de ideas D) y debía librarse  en el ámbito de la literatura. Por eso hizo algo insólito: el 1 de octubre de 1971, fundó la revista Plural y en ella puso casa a la disidencia de izquierda en México y Latinoamérica. E)En diciembre de 1976, apareció la revista Vuelta, heredera de Plural, que circuló ampliamente por el mundo de habla hispana. Era la trinchera de Paz. F) No se ocupaba  académicamente de la historia política de América Latina, sino que quería cambiarla . Por eso, postulaba la democracia y combatía las lacras(恶习)derivadas del culto al o tragedia y como farsa, los fantasmas redentores del poder y el dogma siguen rondando la vida latinoamericana. Ningún empeño por eliminarlos se compara al de Mario Vargas Llosa. Su liderazgo intelectual ymoral ha sido indiscutible. En sus obras, como expresó el comité que le otorgó en 2010 el Premio Nobel,Vargas Llosa ha construido una “cartografía (制图学) de las estructuras de poder y el reflejo de éstas en la resistencia del individuo G)en su  rebelión y su derrota”. Su tema centralha sido la minuciosa y apasionada crítica de ese poder: el poder de los fanatismos de la identidad (racial, nacional, ideológica, religiosa) y el poder de los dictadores militares o revolucionarios, a quienes detesta por razones casi genéticas. En ese sentido, su trayectoria contrasta con la de Gabriel García Márquez, el otro gran novelista latinoamericano en cuya obra no es difícil advertir una marcada veneración por el hombre fuerte a partir de la cual )se comprende su prolongado servicio a la Revolución cubana y a su amigo, el redentor inmortal.El mesianismo político latinoamericano nació en 1898 en Cuba, cristalizó en Cuba en 1959, y definirá su  destino en Cuba, en un futuro cercano. El hechizo de la Revolución fue tan **o lo es ahora el desencanto y la pesadumbre de las generaciones sacrificadas en el altar de un caudillo vitalicio (终生的). Ojalá llegue la hora de la reconstrucción y la reconciliación, la hora de la libertad: obra de demócratas, no de redentores.(Adaptación del artículo del mismo título publicado en El País, el 1 de octubre de 2011)1.

(16/100)Vivir sin máscarasLa sociedad contemporánea se ha convertido en un gran teatro. Al haber sido educados **portarnos y actuar de una determinada manera, en vez de mostrarnos auténticos, honestos y libres, solemos llevar una máscara puesta y con ella interpretamos a un personaje que es del agrado de los demás. Si bien vivir bajo una máscara nos permite sentirnos más cómodos y seguros, con el tiempo conlleva un precio muy alto: la desconexión con nuestra verdadera esencia. Y en algunos casos, de tanto llevar una máscara, nos olvidamos de quiénes éramos antes de ponérnosla.En nuestra sociedad ha triunfado el denominado “pensamiento único”. Es decir, se cree que lo que la sociedad considera “normal” es lo “bueno” y lo “correcto” para cada uno de nosotros, por más que vaya en contra de nuestra naturaleza. Así que, a pesar del malestar generalizado, solemos priorizar el “cómo nos ven” al “cómo nos sentimos”. Algunos individuos ocultan sus frustraciones tras una fachada artificial que seduzca a los demás. El problema es que, cuanto más intentamos aparentar, más revelamos nuestras carencias.

Perhaps you would say it’s easy in that there’s nothing extraordinary. Yes, you may be right. All of us observe behavior every day. For example, when traveling in another country, we can avoid embarrassment by observing how people behave in that culture. And failing to be observant while walking or driving can be life-threatening. We learn by observing people’s behavior. Researchers, too, rely on their observations to learn about behavior, but there are differences. For instance, when we observe casually, we may not be aware of factors that bias our observations. And, and when we rarely keep formal records of our observations, instead, we rely on our memory of events. Observations in research, on the other hand, are made under precisely defined conditions, that is, in a systematic and objective manner, and with careful record-keeping. Then how are we going to conduct observations in our research studies and what do we need to do in order to make a scientific and objective observation? Now as you remember, the primary goal of observation is to describe behavior. But it is, in reality, impossible to observe and describe all of a person’s behavior. So we have to rely on observing samples of people’s behavior. In doing so, we must decide whether the samples represent people’s usual behavior. Thus, we’ll first take a brief look at how researchers select samples of behavior. Before conducting an observation or study, researchers must make a number of important decisions. That’s about when and where observations will be made. As I’ve said before, the researcher cannot observe all behavior. Only certain behaviors occurring at particular times in specific settings can be observed. In other words, behavior must be sampled. In this lecture, I’ll briefly introduce two kinds of sampling, that is, time sampling and situation sampling. Now first, time sampling. Time sampling means that researchers choose various time intervals for their observation. Intervals may be selected systematically or randomly. Suppose we want to observe students’ classroom behavior. Then in systematic time sampling, our observations might be made during five twenty-minute periods beginning every hour.The first observation period could begin at 9 a.m., the second at 10 a.m. and so forth. However, in random sampling, these five twenty-minute periods may be distributed randomly over the course of the day; that is to say, intervals between observation periods could vary, some longer, others shorter. One point I’d like to make is, systematic and random time sampling are not always used in isolation. They are often combined in studies. For example, while observation intervals are scheduled systematically, observations within an interval are made at random times. That means the researcher might decide to observe only during fifteen-second intervals, but randomly distributed within each twenty-minute period. Now let’s come to situation sampling. Then what is situation sampling? It involves studying behavior in different locations and under different circumstances and conditions. By sampling as many different situations as possible, researchers can reduce the chance that their observation results will be particular to a certain set of circumstances and conditions. Why? Because people, or for that manner animals, do not behave in exactly the same way across all situations. For example, children do not always behave the same way with one parent as they do with the other parent, and animals do not behave the same way in zoos as they do in the wild. So by sampling different situations, a researcher can make more objective observations than he would in only a specific situation. Having discussed ways to sample behavior in research, we are now moving on to another issue, that is, what researcher should do to record behavior as it occurs, that is, whether researchers are active or passive in recording behavior. This refers to the methods of observation. Observational methods can be classified as observation with intervention, or observation without intervention. Observation with intervention can be made in at least two ways —participant observation and field experiment. In participant observation observers, that is researchers, play a dual role. They observe people’s behavior and they participate actively in the situation they are observing. If individuals who are being observed know that the observer is present to collect information about their behavior, this is undisguised participant observation. But in disguised participant observation, those who are being observed do not know that they are being observed. Another method of observation with intervention is field experiment. What is a field experiment? When an observer controls one or more conditions in a natural setting, in order to determine they’ve effect on behavior, this procedure is called field experiment. The field experiment represents the most extreme form of intervention in observational methods. The essential difference between field experiments and other observational methods is that researchers have more control in field experiments. Now let’s take a look at observation without intervention. Observation without intervention is also called naturalistic observation, because its main purpose’s to describe behavior as it normally occurs, that is, in a natural setting, without any attempt by the observer to intervene. An observer using this method of observation acts as a passive recorder of what occurs. The events occur naturally and are not controlled by the observer. OK, in today’s lecture we have focused on how to make decisions of sampling before beginning our observation, and what we can do during observation. I hope what we’ve discussed will help you in your future research design.Observing Behavior People do observation in daily life context for safety or for proper behavior.

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (40 points)Text 1Many people believe that air travel is a comfortable and convenient way to travel, but it is becoming increasingly apparent that this is not always the case. Recent surveys have indicated that a growing number of passengers are dissatisfied with the service they receive on airlines, and the problem is only getting worse.One of the main complaints from passengers is the lack of space on planes. With airlines packing more seats into each plane in order to maximize profits, passengers often find themselves crammed into tiny seats with little legroom. This can be uncomfortable for even the shortest flight, but on long-haul flights, it can be downright unbearable. Airlines argue that the increased number of seats allows them to keep ticket prices low, but passengers are increasingly willing to pay more for a comfortable seat and a better flying experience.Another common complaint is the lack of customer service on airlines. With cutbacks in staff and an increased focus on efficiency, airlines are often unable to provide the level of service that passengers expect. Flight attendants are overworked and underpaid, which can lead to a lack of attention to passengers' needs and concerns. This lack of personal service can make flying a frustrating experience for many passengers.In addition to these issues, passengers are also unhappy with the quality of food and beverages served on airlines. With airlines trying to cut costs wherever possible, the quality ofin-flight meals has declined in recent years. Many passengers report being served unappetizing and unhealthy meals, or being charged exorbitant prices for snacks and beverages. This canleave passengers feeling like they are being taken advantage of by the airlines they are paying to fly with.Overall, it is clear that there are many areas in which airlines can improve in order to provide a better flying experience for their passengers. From increasing seat sizes and improving customer service to providing better quality and more affordable food and beverages, there are many changes that could be made to make air travel a more pleasant experience for all.11.

Once seen as quiet places for reading and research, libraries are now transforming into community hubs that offer a wide range of services to their patrons.One of the main changes in libraries in recent years is the introduction of digital resources. Many libraries now offere-books and audiobooks that patrons can borrow online. This allows people to access books and other materials without having to physically visit the library. In addition, many libraries offer digital subscriptions to newspapers and magazines, as well as access to online databases and learning resources. These resources can be accessed from anywhere with an internet connection, making it easier for people to access information and educational materials.In addition to digital resources, libraries are also becoming more community-focused. Many libraries now offer programs and events that cater to a wide range of interests and age groups. From children's storytime sessions to adult education classes, libraries are working to engage with their communities andprovide valuable services beyond just lending books. This shift towards a more community-focused approach has proven successful in attracting new patrons and increasing the relevance of libraries in today's digital age.Overall, the changing role of libraries in society is a positive development that has allowed libraries to remain relevant in an increasingly digital world. By adapting to meet the changing needs of their patrons and offering a wider range of services, libraries are able to continue to serve as vital community resources in the 21st century.16.

What does the author suggest has allowed libraries to remain relevant in an increasingly digital world?A. Adapting to meet the changing needs of their patronsB. Offering a wider range of servicesC. Both A and BD. Neither A nor BText 3The use of social media in the workplace is a controversial topic that has sparked much debate in recent years. While some argue that social media can be a valuable tool for communication and collaboration, others believe that it can be a distraction and a threat to productivity.One of the main arguments in favor of social media in the workplace is that it allows for increased communication and collaboration among employees. With platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, employees can easily connect with colleagues, share ideas, and collaborate on projects. This can lead to increased creativity and innovation in the workplace, as well as improved teamwork and communication. In addition, social media can be a valuable tool for networking and building relationships with clients and customers, which can help businesses grow and succeed.However, critics of social media in the workplace argue that it can be a major distraction that can decrease productivity andfocus. With the constant stream of updates, notifications, and messages, employees can easily become overwhelmed and lose focus on their work. In addition, the use of social media can lead to security risks for businesses, as employees may inadvertently share sensitive information or fall victim to phishing attacks. This can have serious consequences for businesses, including loss of revenue and damage to their reputation.Overall, the use of social media in the workplace is a complex issue that requires careful consideration and management. While it can be a valuable tool for communication and collaboration, it can also be a distraction and a threat to productivity. By setting clear guidelines and expectations for social media use, businesses can harness the benefits of social media while minimizing the risks.21.

With rapid advances in technology and changes in the job market, schools are struggling to keep up with the evolving needs of students and societies.One of the main challenges facing the education system is the need to prepare students for an increasingly digital world.With computers and the internet playing a central role in virtually every aspect of modern life, students need to develop digital literacy skills in order to succeed in the workforce. This has led to calls for schools to introduce more technology-based learning tools and resources, as well as to teach students how to use technology in a responsible and ethical manner.In addition to the need for digital literacy skills, schools are also facing challenges in preparing students for a rapidly changing job market. Many traditional jobs are being automated or outsourced, while new jobs in fields such as artificial intelligence and renewable energy are emerging. This has led to calls for schools to focus more on teaching critical thinking, problem-solving, and creativity, rather than just rote memorization and test-taking skills. By developing these skills, students will be better prepared to adapt to the changing job market and succeed in a wide range of careers.Overall, the challenges facing the education system are significant, but by adapting to meet the evolving needs of students and societies, schools can continue to provide a valuable and relevant education to future generations. By focusing on digital literacy, critical thinking, problem-solving,and creativity, schools can prepare students for success in a rapidly changing world.26.

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once. Each paragraph is marked with a letter. Answer the questions by marking the corresponding letter on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points)The Universe is incredibly vast and mysterious, filled with billions of galaxies, each containing billions of stars. Our own Solar System is just a tiny speck in this vast expanse of space, yet it is the only place we know of that contains life. But how did it all come to be? How did the Universe go from being a hot, dense soup of particles to the complex and diverse cosmos we see today?The prevailing theory of the origin of the Universe is the Big Bang theory. According to this theory, the Universe began as a small, hot, dense point around 13.8 billion years ago. This point, known as a singularity, contained all the matter and energy that would go on to form the galaxies, stars, and planets we see today.The Universe has been expanding ever since, with galaxies moving away from each other as space itself expands.One of the pieces of evidence for the Big Bang theory is the cosmic microwave background radiation. This faint glow of radiation fills the Universe and is thought to be the leftover heat from the Big Bang. Another important piece of evidence is the abundance of light elements such as hydrogen and helium. These elements are thought to have been formed in the first few minutes after the Big Bang, when the Universe was hot and dense enough to allow nuclear reactions to occur.Despite the success of the Big Bang theory in explaining the large-scale structure of the Universe, there are still many unanswered questions about the nature of the Universe. For example, scientists are still unsure about what dark matter and dark energy, which are thought to make up the majority of the Universe, are made of. They are also unsure about the ultimate fate of the Universe, and whether it will continue to expand forever or eventually collapse back in on itself.A.

However, a recent study has shed new light on the relationship between smoking and health, suggesting that the risks may not be as clear-cut as previously thought.The study, which was published in the Journal of the American Medical Association, analyzed data from over 45,000 men and women over a period of 30 years. The researchers found that while smoking was indeed associated with an increased risk of developing smoking-related diseases, the risks varied depending on the amount and duration of smoking. For example, heavy smokers were found to be at a much higher risk of developing lung cancer than light smokers, while former smokers had a lower risk than current smokers.One of the surprising findings of the study was that light smokers, defined as those who smoked less than five cigarettes per day, did not have a significantly increased risk of dying from smoking-related diseases. This suggests that the risks of smoking may be dose-dependent, with heavier smokers facing a much higher risk than lighter smokers. The study also found that quitting smoking at any age was associated with a reduced riskof developing smoking-related diseases, highlighting the benefits of quitting smoking at any stage in life.Overall, the study has raised questions about the traditional view of smoking as a one-size-fits-all risk factor for disease.

For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.I used to look at my closet and see clothes. These days, whenever I cast´my eyes upon the stacks of shoes and hangers of shirts, sweaters and jackets, I see water.It takes 569 gallons to manufacture a T-shirt, from its start in the cotton fields to its appearance on store shelves. A pair of running shoes? 1,247 gallons.Until last fall, I´d been oblivious to my "water footprint", which is defined as the total volume of freshwater that is used to produce goods and services, according to the Water Footprint Network. The Dutch nonprofit has been working to raise awareness of freshwater scarcity since 2008, but it was through the "Green Blue Book" by Thomas M. Kostigen that I was able to see how my own actions factored in.I´ve installed gray-water systems to reuse the wastewater from my laundry machine and bathtub and reroute it to my landscape-systems that save, on average, 50 gallons of water per day. I´ve set up rain barrels and infiltration pits to collect thousands of gallons of storm water cascading from my roof. I´ve even entered the last bastion of greendom-installing a composting toilet.Suffice to say, I´ve been feeling pretty satisfied with myself for all the drinking water I´ve saved with these big-ticket projects.Now I realize that my daily consumption choices could have an even larger effect-not only on the local water supply but also globally: 1.1 billion people have no access to freshwater, and, in the future, those who do have access will have less of it.To see how much virtual water 1 was using, I logged on to the "Green Blue Book" website and used its water footprint calculator, entering my daily consumption habits. Tallying up the water footprint of my breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks, as well as my daily dose of over-the-counter uppers and downers- coffee, wine and beer- I´m using 512 gallons of virtual water each day just to feed myself.In a word: alarming.Even more alarming was how much hidden water I was using to get dressed. I´m hardly a clotheshorse, but the few new items I buy once again trumped the amount of water flowing from my faucets each day. If I´m serious about saving water, I realized I could make some simple lifestyle shifts. Looking more closely at the areas in my life that use the most virtual water, it was food and clothes, specifically meat, coffee and, oddly, blue jeans and leather jackets.Being a motorcyclist, I own an unusually large amount of leather-boots and jackets in particular. All of it is enormously water intensive. It takes 7,996 gallons to make a leather jacket, leather being a byproduct of beef. It takes 2,866 gallons of water to make a single pair of blue jeans, because they´ re made from water-hogging cotton.Crunching the numbers for the amount of clothes I buy every year, it looks a lot like my friend´s swimming pool. My entire closet is borderline Olympic.Gulp.My late resolution is to buy some items used. Underwear and socks are, of course, exempt fromthis strategy, but I have no problem shopping less and also shopping at Goodwill. In fact, I´d been doing that for the past year to save money My clothes´ outrageous water footprint just reinforced it for me.More conscious living and substitution, rather than sacrifice, are the prevailing ideas with the water footprint. It´s one I´m trying, and that´s had an unusual upside. I had a hamburger recently; and I enjoyed it a lot more since it is now an occasional treat rather than a weekly habit.(One gallon =3.8 litres)第21题According to the passage, the Water Footprint NetworkA.worked for freshwater conservation for nonprofit purposes.B.collaborated with the Green Blue Book in freshwater conservation.C.made the author aware of freshwater shortage.D.helped the author get to know the Green Blue Book.第22题Which of the following reasons can best explain the author´s feeling of self-satisfaction?A.His house was equipped with advanced water-saving facilities.B.Money spent on upgrading his household facilities was worthwhile.C.He made contribution to drinking water conservation in his own way.D.He could have made even greater contribution by changing his lifestyle.第23题According to the context, "...how my own actions factored in" meansA.how I could contribute to water conservation.B.how much of what I did contributed to freshwater shortage.C.what behaviour could be counted as freshwater-saving.D.what efforts I should make to save fresh water第24题According to the passage, the author was more alarmed by the fact thatA.he was having more meat and coffee.B.his lifestyle was too extravagant.C.globally there will be less fresh water.D.his clothes used even more virtual water.第25题"My entire closet is borderline Olympic" is an example ofA.analogy.B.exaggeration.C.understatement.D.euphemism.第26题What is the tone of the author in the last paragraph?A.Sarcastic.B.Ironic.C.Critical.D.Humorous.上一题下一题(27~31/共20题)PART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)Directions: In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.In her novel of "Reunion, American Style", Rona Jaffe suggests that a class reunion "is more than a sentimental journey. It is also a way of answering the question that lies at the back of nearly all our minds. Did they do better than I?"Jaffe´s observation may be misplaced but not completely lost. According to a study conducted by social psychologist Jack Sparacino, the overwhelming majority who attend reunions aren´t there invidiously to compare their recent accomplishments with those of their former classmates. Instead, they hope, primarily, to relive their earlier successes.Certainly, a few return to show their former classmates how well they have done; others enjoy observing the changes that have occurred in their classmates (not always in themselves, of course). But the majority who attend their class reunions do so to relive the good times they remember having when they were younger. In his study, Sparacino found that, as high school students, attendees had been more popular, more often regarded as attractive, and more involved in extracurricular activities than those dassmates who chose not to attend. For those who turned up at their reunions, then, the old times were also the good times!It would appear that Americans have a special fondness for reunions, judging by their prevalence. Major league baseball players, fraternity members, veterans groups, high school and college graduates, and former Boy Scouts all hold reunions on a regular basis. In addition, family reunions frequently attract blood relatives from faraway places who spend considerable money and time to reunite.Actually, in their affection for reuniting with friends, family or colleagues, Americans are probably no different from any other people, except that Americans have created a mind-boggling number and variety of institutionalized forms of gatherings to facilitate the satisfaction of this desire. Indeed, reunions have increasingly become formal events that are organized on a regular basis and, in the process, they have also become big business.Shell Norris of Class Reunion, Inc., says that Chicago alone has 1,500 high school reunions each year. A conservative estimate on the national level would be 10,000 annually. At one time, all high school reunions were organized by volunteers, usually female homemakers. In the last few years, however, as more and more women have entered the labour force, alumni reunions are increasingly being planned by specialized companies rather than by part-time volunteers.The first college reunion was held by the alumni of Yale University in 1792. Graduates of Pennsylvania, Princeton, Stanford, and Brown followed suit. And by the end of the 19th century, most 4-year institutions were holding alumni reunions.The variety of college reunions is impressive. At Princeton, alumni parade through the town wearing their class uniforms and singing their alma mater. At Marietta College, they gather for a dinner-dance on a steamship cruising the Ohio River.Clearly, the thought of cruising on a steamship or marching through the streets is usually not, by itself, sufficient reason for large numbers of alumni to return to campus. Alumni who decide to attend their reunions share a common identity based on the years they spent together as undergraduates. For this reason, universities that somehow establish a common bond - for example, because they are relatively small or especially prestigious - tend to draw substantialnumbers of their alumni to reunions. In an effort to enhance this common identity, larger colleges and universities frequently build their dass reunions on participation in smaller units, such as departments or schools. Or they encourage "affinity reunions" for groups of former cheerleaders, editors, hatemity members, musicians, members of military organizations on campus, and the like.Of course, not every alumnus is fond of his or her alma mater. Students who graduated during the late 1960s may be especially reluctant to get involved in alumni events. They were part of the generation that conducted sit-ins and teach-ins directed at university administrators, protested military recruitment on campus and marched against "establishment politics." If this generation has a common identity, it may fall outside of their university ties - or even be hostile to them. Even as they enter their middle years, alumni who continue to hold unpleasant memories of college during this period may not wish to attend class reunions.第27题According to the passage, Sparacino´s studyA.found that interest in reunions was linked with school experience.B.found evidence for attendees´ intense desire for showing off success.C.showed that attendees tended to excel in high school study.D.provided strong evidence for Jaffe´s statement.第28题Which of the following is NOT mentioned as a distinct feature of U.S. class reunions?A.Class reunions have become a profitable business.B.Class reunions have brought about a variety of activities.C.Reunions are regular and formal events organized by professional agencies.D.U.S. class reunions are usually occasions to show off one´s recent success.第29题What mainly attracts many people to return to campus for reunion?A.Shared experience beyond the eampus.B.Shared undergraduate experience on campus.C.The special status their university enjoys.D.The variety of activities for class reunion.第30题The rhetorical function of the first paragraph is toA.serve as prelude to the author´s argument.B.present the author´s counterargument.C.introduce Rona Jeffe´s novel.D.bring into foeus contrasting opinions.第31题What is the passage mainly about?A.Alumni reunions and American university traditions.B.Alumni reunion and its soeial and eeonomie implieations.C.Reasons for popularity and (non)attendance for alumni reunions.D.A historical perspective for alumni reunions in the United States.上一题下一题(32~35/共20题)PART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)Directions: In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.One time while on his walk George met Mr. Cattanzara coming home very late from work. He wondered if he was drunk but then could tell he wasn´t. Mr. Cattanzara, a stocky, bald-headed man who worked in a change booth on an IRT station, lived on the next block after George´s, above a shoe repair store. Nights, during the hot weather, he sat on his stoop in an undershirt, reading the New York Times in the fight of the shoemaker´s window. He read it from the first page to the last, then went up to sleep. And all the time he was reading the paper, his wife, a fat woman with a white face, leaned out of the window, gazing into the street, her thick white arms folded under her loose breast, on the window ledge.Once in a while Mr. Cattanzara came home drunk, but it was a quiet drunk. He never made any trouble, only walked stiffly up the street and slowly climbed the stairs into the hall. Though drunk he looked the same as always, except for his tight walk, the quietness, and that his eyes were wet. George liked Mr. Cattanzara because he remembered him giving him nickels to buy lemon ice with when he was a squirt. Mr. Cattanzara was a different type than those in the neighbourhood. He asked different questions than the others when he met you, and he seemed to know what went on in all the newspapers. He read them, as his fat sick wife watched from the window. "What are you doing with yourself this summer, George?" Mr. Cattanzara asked. "I see you walkin´ around at night."George felt embarrassed. "I like to walk.""What are you doin´ in the day now?""Nothing much just now. I´m waiting for a job." Since it shamed him to admit that he wasn´t working, George said, "I´m reading a lot to pick up my education.""What are you readin´?"George hesitated, then said, "I got a fist of books in the library once and now I´m gonna read them this summer." He felt strange and a little unhappy saying this, but he wanted Mr. Cattanzara to respect him."How many books are there on it?""I never counted them. Maybe around a hundred."Mr. Cattanzara whistled through his teeth."I figure if 1 did that," George went on earnestly, "it would help me in my education. 1 don´t mean the kind they give you in high school. I want to know different things than they learn there, if you know what I mean."The change maker nodded. "Still and all, one hundred books is a pretty big load for one summer.""It might take longer."´After you´re finished with some, maybe you and I can shoot the breeze about them?" said Mr Cattanzara."When I´m finished," George answered.Mr. Cattanzara went home and George continued on his walk. After that, though he had the urge to, George did nothing different from usual. He still took his walks at night, ending up in the little park. But one evening the shoemaker on the next block stopped George to say he was a good boy, and George figured that Mr. Cattanzara had told him all about the books he wasreading. From the shoemaker it must have gone down the street, because George saw a couple of people smiling kindly at him, though nobody spoke to him personally. He felt a little better around the neighbourhood and liked it more, though not so much he would want to live in it forever. He had never exactly disliked the people in it, yet he had never liked them very much either. It was the fault of the neighbourhood. To his surprise, George found out that his father and his sister Sophie knew about his reading too. His father was too shy to say anything about it - he was never much of a talker in his whole life -but Sophie was softer to George, and she showed him in other ways she was proud of him.第32题In the excerpt, Mr. Cattanzara was described as a man whoA.showed a wide interest.B.was fond of drinking.C.often worked overtime.D.liked to gossip after work.第33题It can be inferred from the passage thatA.George lied at the beginning and then became serious.B.George was forced to tell a lie and then regretted.C.Mr. Cattanzara was doubtful about George throughout.D.Mr. Cattanzara was surprised at George´s reading plan.第34题After the street conversation with Mr. Cattanzara, GeorgeA.remained the same as usual.B.became more friendly with Mr. Cattanzara.C.began to like his neighbours more than ever.D.continued to read the books from the list.第35题We can tell from the excerpt that GeorgeA.found his neighbours liked to poke their nose into him.B.found that his sister remained skeptical about him.C.was dissatisfied with his life and surroundings.D.had a neither close nor distant relationship with his father.上一题下一题(36~40/共20题)PART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)Directions: In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.Abraham Lincoln turns 200 this year, and he´s beginning to show his age. When his birthday arrives, on February 12, Congress will hold a special joint session in the Capitol´s National Statuary Hall, a wreath will be laid at the great memorial in Washington, and a webcast will link school classrooms for a "teach-in" honouring his memoryAdmirable as they are, though, the events will strike many of us Lincoln fans as inadequate, even halfhearted - and another sign that our appreciation for the 16th president and his towering achievements is slipping away And you don´t have to be a Lincoln enthusiast to believe that this issomething we can´t afford to lose.Compare this year´s celebration with the Lincoln centennial, in 1909. That year, Lincoln´s likeness made its debut on the penny, thanks to approval from the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Communities and civic associations in every comer of the country erupted in parades, concerts, balls, lectures, and military displays. We still feel the effects today: The momentum unloosed in 1909 led to the Lincoln Memorial, opened in 1922, and the Lincoln Highway, the first paved transcontinental thoroughfare.The celebrants in 1909 had a few inspirations we lack today. Lincoln´s presidency was still a living memory for coundess Americans. In 2009 we are farther in time from the end of the Second World War than they were from the Civil War; families still felt the loss of loved ones from that awful national trauma.But Americans in 1909 had something more: an unembarrassed appreciation for heroes and an acute sense of the way that even long-dead historical figures press in on the present and make us who we are.One story will illustrate what I´m talking about.In 2003 a group of local citizens arranged to place a statue of Lincoln in Richmond, Virginia, former capital of the Confederacy. The idea touched off a firestorm of controversy. The Sons of Confederate Veterans held a public conference of carefully selected scholars to "reassess" the legacy of Lincoln. The verdict - no surprise - was negative: Lincoln was labeled everything from a racist totalitarian to a teller of dirty jokes.I covered the conference as a reporter, but what really unnerved me was a counter-conference of scholars to refute the earlier one. These scholars drew a picture of Lincoln that only our touchy- feely age could conjure up. The man who oversaw the most savage war in our history was described - by his admirers, remember-as "nonjudgmental," "unmoralistic," "comfortable with ambiguity."I felt the way a friend of mine felt as we later watched the unveiling of the Richmond statue in a subdued ceremony: "But he´s so small!"The statue in Richmond was indeed small; like nearly every Lincoln statue put up in the past half century, it was life-size and was placed at ground level, a conscious rejection of the heroic - approachable and human, yes, but not something to look up to.The Richmond episode taught me that Americans have lost the language to explain Lincoln´s greatness even to ourselves. Earlier generations said they wanted their children to be like Lincoln: principled, kind, compassionate, resolute. Today we want Lincoln to be like us.This helps to explain the long string of recent books in which writers have presented a Lincoln made after their own image. We´ve had Lincoln as humorist and Lincoln as manic-depressive, Lincoln the business sage, the conservative Lincoln and the liberal Lincoln, the emancipator and the racist, the stoic philosopher, the Christian, the atheist - Lincoln over easy and Lincoln scrambled.What´s often missing, though, is the timeless Lincoln, the Lincoln whom all generations, our own no less than that of 1909, can lay claim to. Lucky for us, those memorializers from a century ago - and, through them, Lincoln himself- have left us a hint of where to find him. The Lincoln Memorial is the most visited of our presidential monuments. Here is where we find the Lincoln who endures: in the words he left us, defining the country we´ve inherited. Here is the Lincoln who can be endlessly renewed and who, 200 years after his birth, retains the power to renew us.The author thinks that this year´s celebration is inadequate and even halfhearted becauseA.no similar appreciation of Lincoln will be seen.B.no activities can be compared to those in 1909.C.no Lincoln statue will be unveiled.D.no memorial coins will be issued.第37题According to the passage, what really makes the 1909 celebrations different from this year´s?A.Structures constructed in memory of Lincoln.B.Variety and magnitude of celebration activities.C.Respect for great people and their influence.D.Temporal proximity to Lincoln´s presidency.第38题In the author´s opinion, the counter-conferenceA.rectified the judgment by those carefully selected scholars.B.resulted in similar disparaging remarks on Lincoln.C.came up with somewhat favourable conclusions.D.offered a brand new reassessment perspective.第39题According to the author, the image of Lincoln conceived by contemporary peopleA.reveals the variety of current opinions on heroes.B.shows the present-day desire to emulate Lincoln.C.reflects the present-day tendency of worship.D.conforms to traditional images.第40题Which of the following best explains the implication of the last paragraph?A.The memorial is symbolic of the great man´s achievements.B.Lincoln´s greatness remains despite the passage of time.C.Each generation has it own interpretation of Lincoln.D.People get to know Lincoln through memorializers.上一题下一题(1/10)PART III GENERAL KNOWLEDGE (10 MIN)Directions: There are ten multiple-choice questions in this section.

Read the passages and then mark your answers on your Coloured Answer Sheet. TEXT A Despite Denmark?s manifest virtues, Danes never talk about how proud they a re to be Danes. This would sound weird in Danish. When Danes talk to foreigners about Denmark, they always begin by commenting on its tininess, its unimportance , the difficulty of its language, the general small-mindedness and self-indulgen ce of their countrymen and the high taxes. No Dane would look you in the eye and say, “Denmark is a great country.” You?re suppo sed to figure this out for yo urself.It is the land of the silk safety net, where almost half the national budg et goes toward smoothing out l ife?s inequalities, and there is plenty of money f or schools, day care, retraining programmes, job seminars-Danes love seminars: t hree days at a study centre hearing about waste management is almost as good as a ski trip. It is a culture bombarded by English, in advertising, pop music, the Internet, and despite all the English that Danish absorbs—there is no Danish Academy to defend against it —old dialects persist in Jutland that can barel y be understood by C openhageners. It is the land where, as the saying goes,“ Fe w have too much and fewer have too little, ”and a foreigner is struck by the swe e t egalitarianism that prevails, where the low liest clerk gives you a level gaze, where Sir and Madame have disappeared from common usage, even Mr. and Mrs. It? s anation of recyclers—about 55 % of Danish garbage gets made into something new—and no nuclear power plants. It?s a nation of tireless pl anner. Trains run on time. Things operate well in general.Such a nation of overachievers —a brochure from the Ministry of Busines s and Industrysays, “Denmark is one of the world?s cleanest and most organize d countries, with virtually no pollution, crime, or poverty. Denmark is the most c orruption-free society in the Northern Hemisphere. ”So, of course, one?s heart l ifts at any sighting of Danish sleaze: skinhead graffiti on buildings(“Foreigne r s Out of Denmark! ”), broken beer bottles in the gutters, drunken teenagers slu mped in the park.Nonetheless, it is an orderly land. You drive through a Danish town, it co mes to an end at a stone wall, and on the other side is a field of barley, a nic e clean line: town here, country there. It is not a nation of jay-walkers. Peopl e stand on the curb and wait for the red light to change, even if it?s 2 a.m. a n d there?s not a car in sight. However, Danes don? t think of themselves as a w ai nting-at-2-a.m.-for-the-green-light people——that?s how they see Swedes and Ge r mans. Danes see themselves as jazzy people, improvisers, more free spirited than Swedes, but the truth is( though one should not say it)that Danes are very much like Germans and Swedes. Orderliness is a main selling point. Denmark has few n atural resources, limited manufacturing capability; its future in Europe will be as a broker, banker, and distributor of goods. You send your goods by container ship to Copenhagen, and these bright, young, English-speaking, utterly honest, highly disciplined people will get your goods around to Scandinavia, the Baltic States, and Russia. Airports, seaports,highways, and rail lines are ultramodern and well-maintained.The orderliness of the society doesn?t mean that Danish lives are less me s sy or lonely than yours or mine, and no Dane would tell you so. You can hear ple nty about bitter family feuds and the sorrows of alcoholism and about perfectly sensible people who went off one day and killed themselves. An orderly society c an not exempt its members from the hazards of life.But there is a sense of entitlement and security that Danes grow up with. Certain things are yours by virtue of citizenship, and you shouldn?t feel bad f o r taking what you?re entitled to, you?re as good as anyone else. The rules of th e welfare system are clear to everyone, the benefits you get if you lose your jo b, the steps you take to get a new one; and the orderliness of the system makes it possible for the country to weather high unemployment and social unrest witho ut a sense of crisis.16. The author thinks that Danes adopt a ___ attitude towards their country.A. boastfulB. modestC. deprecatingD. mysterious17. Which of the following is NOT a Danish characteristic cited in the pa ssage?A. Fondness of foreign culture.B. Equality in society.C. Linguistic tolerance.D. Persistent planning.18. The author?s reaction to the statement by the Ministry of Business a nd Industry is ___.A. disapprovingB. approvingC. noncommittalD. doubtful19. According to the passage, Danish orderliness ___.A. sets the people apart from Germans and SwedesB. spares Danes social troubles besetting other peopleC. is considered economically essential to the countryD. prevents Danes from acknowledging existing troubles20. At the end of the passage the author states all the following EXCEPT that ___.A. Danes are clearly informed of their social benefitsB. Danes take for granted what is given to themC. the open system helps to tide the country overD. orderliness has alleviated unemploymentTEXT BBut if language habits do not represent classes, a social str atification in to something as bygone as “aristocracy” and “commons”, they do still of cour se s erve to identify social groups. This is something that seems fundamental in the use of language. As we see in relation to political and national movements, lang uage is used as a badge or a barrier depending on which way we look at it. The n ew boy at school feels out of it at first because he does not know the fight wor ds for things, and awe-inspiring pundits of six or seven look down on him for no t being awa re that racksy means “dilapidated”, or hairy “out first ball”. Th e mi ner takes a certain pride in being “one up on the visitor or novice who calls t h e cage a “lift” or who thinks that men working in a warm seam are in their “u nde rpants” when anyone ought to know that the garments are called hoggers. The “i ns ider” is seldom displeased that his languagedistinguishes him from the “outsi der”.Quite apart from specialized terms of this kind in groups, trades and profe ssions, there are all kinds of standards of correctness at which mast of us feel more or less obliged to aim, because we know that certain kinds of English invi te irritation or downright condemnation. On the other hand, we know that other k inds convey some kind of prestige and bear a welcome cachet.In relation to the social aspects of language, it may well be suggested tha t English speakers fall into three categories: the assured, the anxious and the in different. At one end of this scale, we have the people who have “position” an d “status”, and who therefore do not feel they need worry much about their use o f English. Their education and occupation make them confident of speaking an uni mpeachable form of English: no fear of being criticized or corrected is likely t o cross their minds, and this gives their speech that characteristically unself c onscious and easy flow which is often envied.At the other end of the scale, we have an equally imperturbable band, speak ing with a similar degree of careless ease, because even if they are aware that their English is condemned by others, they are supremely indifferent to the fact . The Mrs Mops of this world have active and efficient tongues in their heads, a nd if we happened not to like the/r ways of saying things, well, we “can lump i t ”. That is their attitude. Curiously enough, writers are inclined to represent t he speech of both these extreme parties with -in? for ing. On the one hand, “w e?re goin? huntin?, my dear sir”; on the other, “we?re goin? racin? , ma te.”In between, according to this view, we have a far lessfortunate group, th e anxious. These actively try to suppress what they believe to be bad English an d assiduously cultivate what they hope to be good English. They live their lives in some degree of nervousness over their grammar, their pronunciation, and thei r choice of words: sensitive, and fearful of betraying themselves. Keeping up wi th the Joneses is measured not only in houses, furniture, refrigerators, cars, a nd clothes, but also in speech.And the misfortune of the “anxious” does not end with their inner anxiet y. Their lot is also the open or veiled contempt of the “assured” on one side of them and of the “indifferent” on the other.It is all too easy to raise an unworthy laugh at the anxious. The people t hus uncomfortably stilted on linguistic high heels so often form part of what is, in many ways, the most admirable section of any society: the ambitious, tense, inner-driven people, who are bent on“ going places and doing things”. The grea te r the pity, then, if a disproportionate amount of their energy goes into what Mr Sharpless called“ this shabby obsession” with variant forms of English—espe ci ally if the net result is(as so often)merely to sound affected and ridicul ous. “ Here”, according to Bacon, “is the first distemper of learning, when men study w ords and not matter …. It seems to me that Pygmalion? s frenzy is a good emble m …of this vanity: for words axe but the images of matter; and except they have l ife of reason and invention, to fall in love with them is to fall in love with a picture.”21. The attitude held by the assured towards language is ___.A. criticalB. anxiousC. self-consciousD. nonchalant22. The anxious are considered a less fortunate group because ___.A. they feel they are socially looked down uponB. they suffer from internal anxiety and external attackC. they are inherently nervous and anxious peopleD. they are unable to meet standards of correctness23. The author thinks that the efforts made by the anxious to cultivate w hat they believe is good English are ___.A. worthwhileB. meaninglessC. praiseworthyD. irrationalTEXT CFred Cooke of Salford turned 90 two days ago and the world has been beating a path to his door. If you haven?t noticed, the backstreet boy educated at Bla c kpool grammar styles himself more grandly as Alastair Cooke, broadcaster extraor dinaire. An honorable KBE, he would be Sir Alastair if he had not taken American citizenship more than half a century ago.If it sounds snobbish to draw attention to his humble origins, it should be reflected that the real snob is Cooke himself, who has spent a lifetime disguis ing them. But the fact that he opted to renounce his British passport in 1941 —just when his country needed all the wartime help it could get-is hardly a ma tter for congratulation.Cooke has made a fortune out of his love affair with America, entrancing l isteners with a weekly monologue that has won Radio 4 many devoted adherents. Pa rt of the pull is the developed drawl. This is the man who ga ve the world “midatlantic”, t he language of the disc jockey and public relations man.He sounds American to us and English to them, while in reality he has for decades belonged to neither. Cooke?s world is an America that exists largely in the imagination. He took ages to acknowledge the disaster that was Vietnam and e ven longer to wake up to Watergate. His politics have drifted to the right with age, and most of his opinions have been acquired on the golf course with fellow celebrities.He chased after stars on arrival in America, Fixing up an interview with Ch arlie Chaplin and briefly becoming his friend. He told Cooke he could turn him i nto a fine light comedian; instead he is an impressionist?s dream.Cooke liked the sound of his first wife?s name almost as much as he admir e d her good looks. But he found bringing up baby difficult and left her for the w ife of his landlord. Women listeners were unimpressed when, in 1996, he declared on air that th e fact that 4% of women in the American armed forces were raped showed remarkabl e self-restraint on the part of Uncle Sam?s soldiers. His arrogance in not allo w ing BBC editors to see his script in advance worked, not for the first time, to his detriment. His defenders said he could not help living with the 1930svalues he had acquired and somewhat dubiously went on to cite “gallantry” as chief a mo ng them. Cooke?s raconteur style encouraged a whole generation of BBC men to th i nk of themselves as more important than the story. His treacly tones were the mo del for the regular World Service reports From Our Own Correspondent, known as F OOCs in the business. They may yet be his epitaph.24. At the beginning of the passage the writer sounds critical of ___.A. Cooke?s obscure originsB. Cooke?s broadcastin g styleC. Cooke?s Ameri can citizenshipD. Cooke?s fondness of America25. The following adjectives can be suitably applied to Cooke EXCEPT ___.A. old-fashionedB. sincereC. arrogantD. popular 26. The writer comments o n Cooke?s life and career in a slightly ___ tone.A. ironicB. detachedC. scathingD. indifferentTEXT DMr Duffy raised his eyes from the paper and gazed out of his window on the cheerless evening landscape. The river lay quiet beside the empty distillery and from time to time a light appeared in some house on Lucan Road. What an end! Th e whole narrative of her death revolted him and it revolted him to think that he had ever spoken to her of what he held sacred. The cautious words of a reporter won over to conceal the details of a commonplace vulgar death attacked his stom ach. Not merely had she degraded herself, she had degraded him. His soul?s comp a nion! He thought of the hobbling wretches whom he had seen carrying cans and bot tles to be filled by the barman. Just God, what an end! Evidently she had been u nfit to live, withoutany strength of purpose, an easy prey to habits, one of th e wrecks on which civilization has been reared. But that she could have sunk so low! Was it possible he had deceived himself so utterly about her? He remembered her outburst of that night and interpreted it in a harsher sense than he had ev er done. He had no difficulty now in approving of the course he had taken.As the light failed and his memory began to wander he thought her hand tou ched his. The shock which had first attacked his stomach was now attacking his n erves. He put on his overcoat and hat quickly and went out. The cold air met him on the threshold; it crept into the sleeves of his coat. When he came to the pu blic house at Chapel Bridge he went in and ordered a hot punch.The proprietor served him obsequiously but did not venture to talk. There were five or six working-men in the shop discussing the value of a gentleman?s e s tate in County Kildare. They drank at intervals from their huge pint tumblers, and smoked, spitting often on the floor and sometimes dragging the sawdust over their heavy boots. Mr Duffy sat on his stool and gazed at them, without seeing o r hearing them. After a while they went out and he called for another punch. He sat a long time over it. The shop was very quiet. The proprietor sprawled on the counter reading the newspaper and yawning. Now and again a tram was heard swish ing along the lonely road outside.As he sat there, living over his life with her and evoking alternately the two images on which he now conceived her, he realized that she was dead, that s he had ceased to exist, that she had become a memory. He began to feel ill at ea se. He asked himself what else could he have done. He could not have lived with her openly. He had done what seemed to him best. How washe to blame? Now that s he was gone he understood how lonely her life must have been, sitting night afte r night alone in that room. His life would be lonely too until he, too, died, ce ased to exist, became a memory-if anyone remembered him.27. Mr Duffy?s immediate reaction to the report of the woman?s death wa s that of ___.A. disgustB. guiltC. griefD. compassion28. It can be inferred from the passage that the reporter wrote about the woman?s death in a ___ manner.A. detailedB. provocativeC. discreetD. sens ational29.

Skim or scan them as required and then mark your answers on the Colour ed Answer Sheet.TEXT EFirst read the following question.31. In the passage Bill Gates mainly discusses ___.A. a person?s opportunity of a lifetimeB. the success of the computer industryC. the importance of educationD. high school education in the USNow go through TEXT E quickly and answer question 31.Hundreds of students send me e-mail each year asking for advice about educa tion. They want to know what to study, or whether i t?s OK to drop out of colleg e since that?s what I did.My basic advice is simple and heartfelt.“ Get the best education you can. Take advantage of high school and college. Learn how to learn.”It?s true that I dropped out of college to start M icrosoft, but I was at H a rvard for three years before dropping out-and I?d love to have the time to go b a ck. As I?ve said before, nobody should drop out of college unless they believe they face the opportunity of a lifetime. And even then they should reconsider.The computer industry has lots of people who didn?t finish college, but I 'm not aware of any success stories that began with somebody dropping out of high school. I actually don?t know any high school dropouts, let alone any successfu l ones.In my company?s early years we had a bright part-time programmer who threa tened to drop out of high school to work full-time. We told him no.Quite a few of our people didn?t finish college, but wediscourage droppin g out.College is n?t the only place where information exist. You can learn in a l i brary. But somebody handing you a book doesn?t automatically foster learning. Y o u want to learn with other people, ask questions, try out ideas and have a way t o test your ability. It usually takes more than just a book.Education should be broad, although it?s fine to have deep interests, too.In high school there were periods when I was highly focused on writing soft ware, but for most of my high school years I had wide-ranging academic interests . My parents encouraged this, and I?m grateful that they did.One parent wrote me that her 15-year old son “lost himself in the hole of t he computer. ”He got an A in Web site design, but other grades were sinking, sh e said.This boy is making a mistake. High school and college offer you the best ch ance to learn broadly-math, history, various sciences-and to do projects with ot her kids that teach you firsthand about group dynamics. It?s fine to take a dee p interest in computers, dance, language or any other discipline, but not if it j eopardizes breadth.In college it?s appropriate to think about specialization. Getting real e x pertise in an area of interest can lead to success. Graduate school is one way t o get specialized knowledge. Choosing a specialty isn?t something high school s t udents s hould worry about. They should worry about getting a strong academic sta rt.There?s not a perfect correlation between attitudes in high school and su c cess in later l ife, of course. But it?s a real mistake not to take the opportun i ty to learn a hu ge range of subjects,to learn to work with people in high schoo l, and to get the grades that will help you get into a good college.TEXT FFirst read the following question.32. The passage focuses on ___.A. the history and future of LondonB. London?s manufacturing skillsC. London?s status as a financial centrerD. the past and present roles of LondonNow go through T ext F quickly and answer question 32.What is London for? To put the question another way, why was London, by 190 0, incomparably the largest city in the world, which it remained until the bomba rdments of the Luftwaffe? There could be many answers to this question, but any history of London will rehearse three broad explanations. One is the importance of its life as a port. When the Thames turned to ice in February 1855,50,000 men were put out of work, and there were bread riots from those whose liveliboods h ad been frozen with the river. Today, the Thames could be frozen for a year with out endangering the livelihoods of any but a few pleasure-boatmen.The second major cause of London?s wealth and success was that it was easi l y the biggest manufacturing centre in Europe. At the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, Dutch looms and the stocking knitting frame were first pioneered in London. The vast range of London?s manufacturing skills is another fact; almos t any item you can name was manufactured in London during the days of its prosper ity. In 1851, 13.75 percent of the manufacturing work-force of GreatBritain was based in London. By 1961, this had dramatically。

Los pensadores liberales del siglo XIX abjuraron de (摒弃) ambos1). En Facundo–su2) obra clásica sobre el caudillo Facundo Quiroga, “sombra terrible” de las pampas–, Sarmiento recreó al prototipo del poder personal en el siglo XIX latinoamericano, el dueño de vidas y haciendas, hombre de horca y cuchillo, símbolo de Barbarie opuesta a la Civilización. En el siglo XX, con el advenimiento de la Revolución mexicana y la bolchevique, una lenta trasmutación (演变) comenzóa operar en la realidad y la imaginación de nuestros países: la crítica del caudillo se transformóen culto al hombre fuerte; y la Revolución adquirió el prestigio de una nueva aurora de justicia para los pueblos A).La sacralización (神圣化) de la Historia en la persona de un héroe produce la figura política de los “redentores”. En América Latina el proceso 3) tuvo antecedentes populares en la guerra de la Independencia mexicana y en los movimientos mesiánicos (信仰救世主的) de Brasil, pero su versión moderna4) nace del agravio (蔑视) contra Estados Unidos a partir de la guerra de 1898. Todavía Martí, el último liberal del XIX, pudo soñar con un mundo de repúblicas americanas, orientadas al progreso y respetuosas entre sí.B) Pero las actitudes imperiales d el“monstruo”5) en cuyas entrañas había vivido y cuya democracia y dinamismo había admirado6) terminaron por decepcionar lo7). Con su muerte muriótambién el proyecto de una América homogénea e igualitaria. Había que imaginar y construir otra América, distinta y opuesta a la del Norte 8). Movido por ese agravio, el pensador uruguayo JoséEnrique Rodópublicóen 1900 un folleto que influyóen el destino político e intelectual de “Nuestra América”. Se titulaba Ariel y postulaba un “choque de civilizaciones”entre la superior espiritualidad de Hispanoamérica y la “barbarie” materialista de Estados Unidos.Conforme avanzóel siglo, las más diversas corrientes ideológicas (el nacionalismo, el anarquismo, el socialismo, el marxismo, el indigenismo y aun el fascismo) fueron deudoras, en diversa medida, del idealismo “arielista”C) y se encarnaron en personajes con ideas o actitudes “redentoras”, como las del mexicano José Vasconcelos, que quiso ser presidente para “salvar a México” y vio en AméricaLatina la cuna d e una “Raza Cósmica”, o las más terrenales 9)del peruano JoséCarlos Mariátegui, que profetizó(预言) la convergencia revolucionaria entre el marxismo y el indigenismo.En el verano de 1968 estallóen México un movimiento estudiantil que se proponía 10) la apertura de espacios de libertad en un sistema autoritario. El 2 de octubre el Gobierno masacró (杀戮) a decenas de estudiantes en la plaza de Tlatelolco.A raíz de la matanza de Tlatelolco, Octavio Paz, nuestro poeta mayor, renunció a la Embajada de India. Sus 11) lectores esperábamos su regreso para encabezar un partidoinsólito: el 1 de octubre de 1971, fundóla revista Plural ydisidencia de izquierda en México y Latinoamérica. E)En diciembre de 1976, apareció la revista Vuelta, heredera de Plural, que circulóampliamente por el mundo de habla hispana. Era la trinchera de Paz. F)No se ocupaba13) académicamente de la historia política de América Latina, sino que quería cambiar la 14). Por eso, postulaba la democracia y combatía las lacras(恶习)derivadas del culto al caudillo.Como tragedia y como farsa, los fantasmas redentores del poder y el dogma siguen rondando la vida latinoamericana. Ningún empeño por eliminarlos se compara al de Mario Vargas Llosa. Su liderazgo intelectual y moral ha sido indiscutible. En sus obras, como expresó el comité que le otorgó en 2010 el Premio Nobel, Vargas Llosa ha construido una “cartografía (制图学) de las estructuras de poder y el reflejo de éstas en la resistencia del individuo G), en su 15) rebelión y su derrota”. Su tema central ha sido la minuciosa y apasionada crítica de ese poder: el poder de los fanatismos de la identidad (racial, nacional, ideológica, religiosa) y el poder de los dictadores militares o revolucionarios, a quienes detesta 16) por razones casi genéticas. En ese sentido,su trayectoria contrasta con la de Gabriel García Márquez, el otro gran novelista latinoamericano en cuya obra no es difícil advertir una marcada veneración por el hombre fuerte a partir de la cual 17) se comprende su 18) prolongado servicio a la Revolución cubana y a su amigo, el redentor inmortal.El mesianismo político latinoamericano nacióen 1898 en Cuba, cristalizóen Cuba en 1959, y definirásu 19) destino en Cuba, en un futuro cercano. El hechizo de la Revolución fue tan grande como lo 20)es ahora el desencanto y la pesadumbre de las generaciones sacrificadas en el altar de un caudillo vitalicio (终生的). Ojalá llegue la hora de la reconstrucción y la reconciliación, la hora de la libertad: obra de demócratas, no de redentores.(Adaptación del artículo del mismo título publicado en El País,el 1 de octubre de 2011)SECCIÓN 1Pon en la hoja de respuesta a qué se refiere la parte en cursiva y, en caso de verbo, cuál es el sujeto.

(15/100)Vivir sin máscarasLa sociedad contemporánea se ha convertido en un gran teatro. Al haber sido educados para comportarnos y actuar de una determinada manera, en vez de mostrarnos auténticos, honestos y libres, solemos llevar una máscara puesta y con ella interpretamos a un personaje que es del agrado de los demás. Si bien vivir bajo una máscara nos permite sentirnos más cómodos y seguros, con el tiempo conlleva un precio muy alto: la desconexión con nuestra verdadera esencia. Y en algunos casos, de tanto llevar una máscara, nos olvidamos de quiénes éramos antes de ponérnosla.En nuestra sociedad ha triunfado el denominado “pensamiento único”. Es decir, se cree que lo que la sociedad considera “normal” es lo “bueno” y lo “correcto” para cada uno de nosotros, por más que vaya en contra de nuestra naturaleza. Así que, a pesar del malestar generalizado, solemos priorizar el “cómo nos ven” al “cómo nos sentimos”. Algunos individuos oc ultan sus frustraciones tras una fachada artificial que seduzca a los demás. El problema es que, cuanto más intentamos aparentar, más revelamos nuestras carencias. Dime de quépresumes y te diréde quécareces. De hecho, la vanidad no es más que una capa falsa que utilizamos para proyectar una imagen de triunfo. El llamado “prestigio” no es, en el fondo, más que etiquetas con las que cubrir la desnudez que sentimos cuando no nos valoramos por lo que somos.Es necesario comunicarnos con nosotros mismos a través de nuestros pensamientos. Eso sí, debido a los múltiples elementos con los que hemos sido condicionados, hoy día ser uno mismo es un acto revolucionario.SECCIÓN 2Traduce al español el siguiente texto: (15/100)中国私人藏书从春秋战国时期开始到清末被近代图书馆取代为止,有两千多年的历史。

在接受了在行为处事方面应当如何循规蹈矩的教育之后,我们不再能够展示真实、坦诚和自由自在的自我,而是常常戴着面具生活,扮演着能够取悦他人的“角色”。

虽然戴着面具生活能够让我们感到更舒服,更有安全感,但是,长此以往,它也让我们付出高昂的代价,即彻底与我们的本我(本性)彻底脱离(断绝关系)。

有时,由于面具戴得时间太长,我们甚至忘记了在戴上面具前我们是谁。

在我们的社会中,所谓“主导(独一无二、统一)思想(意志)”占据了主导地位。

就是说,一般认为,不论与我们的本性多么相悖,社会认定“正常”的东西就是对我们每一位个体“好的”和“正确的”东西。

因此,尽管大家对此都很反感,我们还是常常更看重“别人怎么看待我们”,而不是“我们自己感觉如何”。

一些人装出一副让旁人很满意的样子,掩盖自己的失落。

问题是,我们越刻意掩饰,就越发把自己的缺陷暴露出来。

你越炫耀什么,越说明你缺少什么(你越炫耀自己的强项,越说明那恰恰是你的短处所在)。

实际上,自负不过是我们用来表现成功的一副虚假的外壳而已。

所谓的“名望”说到底就是我们不能正确评价自己时的一块块遮羞布(一块块招牌)。

我们必须通过自己的思想与自己心灵沟通。

毫无疑问,由于我们为人处事受制于各种外来的因素,如今,做一个真正的自我无异于完成一次革命行动。

测试项目 2汉译西共15分La biblioteca privada en China, desde su surgimiento entre el período de Primaveras y Otoños y el de los Reinos Combatientes hasta la sustitución por la biblioteca moderna, tuvo una historia de más de dos mil años y, a lo largo de tanto tiempo, vio una multitud incontable de bibliófilos.Si el clásico pabellón del libro privado se caracteriza por el depósito de colecciones en altos estantes únicamente para el uso individual, la biblioteca moderna se distingue por ofrecer recursos accesibles para todos. A partir de la entrada de la Edad Moderna, conforme a la difusión de los conceptos democráticos en China, viene registrándose una creciente conciencia sobre el valor de la biblioteca por parte de los ciudadanos, se abren a todo lector las bibliotecas públicas construidas con financiamiento estatal (público), permitiendo el aprovechamiento común de los bienes de lectura, lo que ha contribuido enormemente al impulso del desarrollo académico, cultural y educativo de nuestro país.Tras la fundación de la República Popular de China, se ha creado un sistema de bibliotecas públicas que cubre toda la nación. Hoy en día, las bibliotecas públicas, que abarcan, entre otras, las del Estado, las provinciales, municipales o regionales autónomas, y hasta las de cantón, poblado o subdistrito urbano, se constituyen (se construyen, se crean) principalmente con financiamiento del Gobierno Central y de los gobiernos locales de diversos niveles, y prestan servicio gratis al lector. La Biblioteca Nacional asentada en Beijing cuenta con un catálogo de 25 millones de ejemplares (piezas), es la más grande de su especie en Asia. Según la estadística de 2004, en todo el país hay 2.710 bibliotecas públicas del nivel de distrito para arriba, con una reserva de 400 millones de ejemplares.。
