考研英语1997第1篇阅读
考研英语1997第1篇阅读In the bustling city, the sun had barely risen when the first rays of light pierced through the morning mist, illuminating the path of a determined student. The year was 1997, and the stakes were high for those who sought to conquer the gauntlet of the graduate entrance examination.The reading material for the English section was as daunting as the exam itself, a collection of articles that spanned across various disciplines, each demanding a deep understanding of the language and the subject matter. Thefirst article, in particular, was a beacon of intellectual challenge, a testament to the rigors of academic pursuit.It delved into the intricacies of a scientific breakthrough, a discovery that promised to reshape the understanding of a field. The language was dense, filled with jargon that required a lexicon of knowledge to decipher. Yet, the student, armed with a dictionary and an unwavering resolve, tackled each sentence with the precision of a scholar.Paragraphs unfolded like a map of knowledge, guiding the reader through the complex terrain of the subject. Each one was a new chapter, revealing insights that were both enlightening and demanding. The student, engrossed in the text, felt the weight of the words, understanding that mastery over them was the key to success.The examination hall was a sea of concentration, pens scribbling furiously as minds raced to comprehend and respond. The first article, once a formidable adversary, now seemed a familiar friend, its secrets laid bare through diligent study.As the clock ticked away, the student reflected on the journey that had led to this moment. The countless hoursspent poring over texts, the sleepless nights, and the relentless pursuit of knowledge—all were now distilled intoa single test of comprehension and application.The final paragraph beckoned, a conclusion that was as much a summation as it was a new beginning. The student, with a steady hand, penned the last of their thoughts, a synthesis of understanding that bridged the gap between the writtenword and the mind's eye.The exam concluded, and with it, a chapter in thestudent's life. Yet, the lessons learned from the firstarticle of the 1997 English reading section would linger, a reminder of the power of perseverance and the joy ofintellectual discovery.。

1997考研英语阅读真题及详细解析
1997考研英语阅读真题及详细解析Part OneIt was 3:45 in the morning when the vote was finally taken. Aftersix months of arguing and final 16 hours of hot parliamentary debates, Australia's Northern Territory became the first legal authority in the world to allow doctors to take the lives of incurably ill patients who wish to die. The measure passed by the convincing vote of 15 to 10. Almostimmediately word flashed on the Internet and was picked up, half a world away, by John Hofsess, executive director of the Right to Die Society of Canada. He sent it on via the group's on line service, Death NET. Says Hofsess: “We posted bulletins all day long, because of course this isn't just something that happened in Australia. It's world history.”The full import may take a while to sink in. The NT Rights of the Terminally III law has left physicians and citizens alike trying to deal with its moral and practical implications. Some have breathed sighs of relief, others, including churches, right to life groups and the Australian Medical Association, bitterly attacked the bill and the haste of its passage. But the tide is unlikely to turn back. In Australia —where an agingpopulation, life extending technology and changing community attitudes have all played their part — other states are going to consider making asimilar law to deal with euthanasia. In the US and Canada, where the right to die movement is gathering strength, observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling.Under the new Northern Territory law, an adult patient can request death— probably by a deadly injection or pill — to put an end to suffering.The patient must be diagnosed as terminally ill by two doctors.After a“cooling off” period of seven days, the patient can sign a certificate ofrequest. After 48 hours the wish for death can be met. For Lloyd Nickson,a 54 year-old Darwin resident suffering from lung cancer, the NT Rightsof Terminally III law means he can get on with living without the haunting fear of his suffering: a terrifying death from his breathingcondition. “I'm not afraid of dying from a spiritual point of view, but whatI was afraid of was how I'd go, because I've watched people die inthehospital fighting for oxygen and clawing at their masks,” he says.1 . From the second paragraph we learn that _____ .A）the objection to euthanasia is slow to come in other countriesB）physicians and citizens share the same view on euthanasia C）changing technology is chiefly responsible for the hasty passage of the law D）it takes time to realize the significance of the law's passage 2 . When the author says that observers are waiting for the dominoes to start falling, he means _____.A）observers are taking a wait and see attitude towards the futureof euthanasiaB）similar bills are likely to be passed in the US, Canada and other countriesC）observers are waiting to see the result of the game of dominoes D）the effect taking process of the passed bill may finally come toa stop3 . When Lloyd Nickson dies, he will _____.A）face his death with calm characteristic of euthanasiaB）experience the suffering of a lung cancer patientC）have an intense fear of terrible sufferingD）undergo a cooling off period of seven days4 . The author's attitude towards euthanasia seems to be that of_____.A）oppositionB）suspicionC）approvalD）indifference重点词汇：parliamentary（议会的，国会的）?parliament+ary。

97分英语达人的笔记
12. 错误答案的特征：
第一大层次：① 无中生有 （未提及的概念）；
② 正反混淆 （选项的意思跟原文的意思正好相反）；
③ 所答非所问 （虽然选项的说法没有问题，符合原文，但和题干搭不上边）
第二大层次：① 过分绝对；
② 扩大范围（注意隐蔽型的扩大范围mostly）；
④ 注意文章的一些固有模式：
第一类型：启承传合型，要特别注意启和合的前后呼应。
第二类型：花开两朵型，要注意两个核心概念的区别和联系。
第三类型：问题答案型，一般来说问题就是文章的中心，阅读的目的就是为了寻找问题的答案。
第四类型：平铺直叙型，注意抓首段和中心。
③ 因果倒置；
④ 常识判断；
⑤ 推得过远；
⑥ 偏离中心；
⑦ 变换词性。
常识判断：如果一个选项仅仅符合常识，不一定是正确答案，还要看文章中类似的意思有没有出现；
如果一个选项不符合常识，一定不是正答案。
能够不由自主地按照正确的思路解题了，才表明我们正确掌握了这些技巧。
三.阅读的技巧
1. 标点符号在阅读中的作用 ：
① 句号。用来分割句子 ，以句号为单位，把段分隔成块，逐个击破。团?条
② 逗号。在两个逗号中间是一个补充说明成分时，在阅读过程中可以献跳过去不读。
③ 冒号。冒号的后面进一步补充说明前面的内容，冒号的前后有一个从抽象到具体的过程。
③ 小心首段陷阱。
④ 主旨题错误选项的干扰特征经常是：
⑴ 局部信息，即选项的内容小于文章的内容；
⑵ 范围过宽，即选项的内容大于文章的内容。
⑤逆向思维法、快速作文法：在两个选项看上去都十分正确无法选择时，试着从选项出发，想象一下如果自己以此选项来写文章会有那些内容，然后把它与文章的内容比较，接近的即为正确选项。
考研英语历年阅读理解真题精析--1997年part3
考研英语历年阅读理解真题精析--1997年part3Part ThreeTechnically, any substance other than food that alters our bodily or mental functioning is a drug. Many people mistakenly believe the term drug refers only to some sort of medicine or an illegal chemical taken by drug addicts. They don't realize that familiar substances such as alcohol and tobacco are also drugs. This is why the more neutral term substance is now used by many physicians and psychologists. The phrase "substance abuse" is often used instead of "drug abuse" to make clear that substances such as alcohol and tobacco can be just as harmfully misused as heroin and cocaine.We live a society in which the medicinal and social use of substances （drugs）is pervasive: an aspirin to quiet a headache, some wine to be sociable, coffee to get going in the morning, a cigarette for the nerves. When do these socially acceptable and apparently constructive uses of a substance become misuses? First of all, most substances taken in excess will produce negative effects such as poisoning or intense perceptual distortions. Repeated use of a substance can also lead to physical addiction or substance dependence. Dependence is marked first by an increased tolerance, with more and more of the substance required to produce the desired effect, and then by the appearance of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms when the substance is discontinued.Drugs （substances）that affect the central nervous system and alter perception, mood, and behavior are known as psychoactive substances. Psychoactive substances are commonly grouped according to whether they are stimulants, depressants, or hallucinogens. Stimulants initially speed up or activate the central nervous system,whereas depressants slow it down. Hallucinogens have their primary effect on perception, distorting and altering it in a variety of ways including producing hallucinations. These are the substances often called psychedelic （from the Greek word meaning "mind manifesting"）because they seemed to radically alter one's state of consciousness.9. "Substance abuse" （Line 5, Paragraph 1）is preferable to "drug abuse" in that _____.A） substances can alter our bodily or mental functioning if illegally usedB） "drug abuse" is only related to a limited number of drug takersC） alcohol and tobacco are as fatal as heroin and cocaineD） many substances other than heroin or cocaine can also be poisonous10. The word "pervasive" （Line 1, Paragraph 2）might mean _____.A） widespread B） overwhelming C） piercing D） fashionable11. Physical dependence on certain substances results from _____.A） uncontrolled consumption of them over long periods of timeB） exclusive use of them for social purposesC） quantitative application of them to the treatment of diseasesD） careless employment of them for unpleasant symptoms12. From the last paragraph we can infer that _____.A） stimulants function positively on the mindB） hallucinogens are in themselves harmful to healthC） depressants are the worst type of psychoactive substancesD） the three types of psychoactive substances are commonly used in groupsUnit4（1997） Part 3重点词汇：1.substance（物质；实质；财产）←sub在下面+st（=stand）+ance名词后缀。
1997年考研英语阅读第三篇
1997年考研英语阅读第三篇The year 1997 marked a significant turning point in the history of graduate school entrance examinations in China, particularly in the English language section. The third reading passage that year was a pivotal text, often discussed for its complexity and the insights it provided into thetest-takers' language proficiency.This passage delved into the intricacies of cultural exchange, highlighting the importance of understanding and respecting different cultural norms and values. It was a call to action for students to broaden their horizons and appreciate the diversity that the world has to offer.The narrative style was engaging, with a clear structure that guided the reader through a series of examples and arguments. It was designed to test not only the comprehension skills of the candidates but also their ability to analyze and synthesize information.The language used was sophisticated, with a mix of formal and informal expressions that required a high level of language proficiency. It was a true test of a student'sability to navigate through complex sentences and understand nuanced meanings.Moreover, the passage was rich in vocabulary, presenting a challenge for those who had to decipher the subtleties ofword choice and context. It was a testament to the depth of English language learning that was expected at the graduate level.The questions that followed the passage were designed to probe deeper into the text, requiring test-takers to demonstrate a thorough understanding of the content and the ability to extract relevant information from the dense material.In essence, the 1997 English reading passage was a comprehensive exercise that not only assessed the candidates' language skills but also their critical thinking and analytical abilities, setting a high standard for future generations of test-takers.。

1997年Text2【完整文章】①A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly,courteous,and helpful most Americans were to them.②To be fair,this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians,and should best be considered North American.③There are,of course, exceptions.④Small-minded officials,rude waiters,and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US.⑤Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.①For a long period of time and in many parts of the country,a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence.②Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families who generally lived distant from one another.③Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of diversion,and brought news of the outside world.①The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality.②Someone traveling alone,if hungry,injured,or ill,often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement.③It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers.④It reflected the harshness of daily life:if you didn’t take in the stranger and take care of him,there was no one else who would.⑤And someday,remember,you might be in the same situation.①Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the weary traveler.②Yet,the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US,especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails.③“I was just traveling through,got talking with this American,and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner—amazing.”④Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon,but are not always understood properly.⑤The casual friendliness of many Americans should be interpreted neither as superficial nor as artificial,but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition.①As is true of any developed society,in America a complex set of cultural signals,assumptions, and conventions underlies all social interrelationships.②And,of course,speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns.③Visitors who fail to “translate”cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions.④For example,when an American uses the word“friend”,the cultural implications of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor’s language and culture.⑤It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to distinguish between courteous convention and individual interest.⑥Yet,being friendly is a virtue that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.【逐句精读】【Para1】①A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly,courteous,and helpful most Americans were to them.主句主干：report(主)is(系)[how…](表)非谓语：brought back by visitors to the US过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰report翻译：去过美国的人回来总是说大多数美国人对他们是多么友善、好客、乐于助人。

1997年考研阅读text4
1997年考研阅读text41997年考研阅读text4是一篇关于心理学和哲学的综合文章。
文章通过引用心理学家William James和哲学家William Alston的观点，探讨了人类的心智体验和主观性的本质。
接下来，我将为大家详细解读该文章。
文章开篇引用心理学家William James的话：“我的意识就是我的心智。
”James认为，我们的心智是我们的意识，它是我们思考、感知和体验的核心。
文章进一步解释了这种心智体验中的主观性，即只有个体自己能直接觉察到的体验。
然后，文章引用哲学家William Alston的观点，指出心智体验的主观性是不可分割的，它们不能被拆分为不同的部分或者被分配给不同的个体。
也就是说，每个人的心智体验是独一无二的，无法被其他人完全理解或者重现。
接下来，文章讨论了心理学中的实验方法。
心理学家通过观察和测量个体的行为、反应和自述来研究心智体验。
然而，这种方法并不能完全捕捉到个体心智体验的全部细节和个性化特点。
因此，心理学家常常使用自述方法来获取个体的主观报告，以帮助他们更好地理解和解释个体的心智体验。
然后，文章提出了一个问题：是否能够在理论或者科学层面上完全理解和解释心智体验的主观性？文章引用心理学家Jean-Paul Sartre的观点，认为我们虽然可以通过观察和解释行为来了解个体的思维过程，但不能直接触及个体的主观体验。
心智体验的主观性是一种独特的、无法捕捉或者表达的心理现象。
接着，文章引用了哲学家Thomas Nagel的观点，他认为我们永远无法像别人一样完全体验其他人的心智体验。
每个人都有自己独特的主观体验，无法通过外部观察或者沟通来深入理解。
这种观点呼应了前文提到的心智体验主观性的不可分割性和个体化。
最后，文章讨论了科学和哲学之间的关系。
科学是通过观察、实验和量化来寻求客观真理的方法，而哲学则是通过思考、辩论和理性推理来探索主观真理的方法。
虽然科学可以解释物质世界中的现象和规律，但它却无法完全解释心智体验的本质和主观性。

1997年Text3【完整文章】①Technically,any substance other than food that alters our bodily or mental functioning is a drug.②Many people mistakenly believe the term drug refers only to some sort of medicine or an illegal chemical taken by drug addicts.③They don’t realize that familiar substances such as alcohol and tobacco are also drugs.④This is why the more neutral term substance is now used by many physicians and psychologists.⑤The phrase“substance abuse”is often used instead of“drug abuse”to make clear that substances such as alcohol and tobacco can be just as harmfully misused as heroin and cocaine.①We live in a society in which the medical and social use of substances(drugs)is pervasive:an aspirin to quiet a headache,some wine to be sociable,coffee to get going in the morning,a cigarette for the nerves.②When do these socially acceptable and apparently constructive uses of a substance become misuses?③First of all,most substances taken in excess will produce negative effects such as poisoning or intense perceptual distortions.④Repeated use of a substance can also lead to physical addiction or substance dependence.⑤Dependence is marked first by an increased tolerance, with more and more of the substance required to produce the desired effect,and then by the appearance of unpleasant withdrawal symptoms when the substance is discontinued.①Drugs(substances)that affect the central nervous system and alter perception,mood,and behavior are known as psychoactive substances.②Psychoactive substances are commonly grouped according to whether they are stimulants,depressants,or hallucinogens.③Stimulants initially speed up or activate the central nervous system,whereas depressants slow it down.④Hallucinogens have their primary effect on perception,distorting and altering it in a variety of ways including producing hallucinations.⑤These are the substances often called psychedelic(from the Greek word meaning “mind-manifestation”)because they seemed to radically alter one’s state of consciousness.【逐句精读】【Para1】①Technically,any substance other than food that alters our bodily or mental functioning is a drug.翻译：从专业角度说，除食品外，任何能改变我们生理和心理机能的物质都是药物。
