自考英语二历年真题

自考英语二历年真题一、2004年真题：Reading ComprehensionPassage OneQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Globalization（全球化） is the term used to describe the dramatic changes occurring in the world economy. It refers to the growing integration and interdependence of national economies. The world economy is now viewed as a single market system in which every country, regardless of size or wealth, is linked to the global market. Consequently, when changes occur in one part of the world, they have an effect on other parts of the world economy. In the past, globalization mainly applied to trade in goods. Today, globalization is expanding into every area of economic life, including services, finance, information technology, and labor markets.51. What is globalization?52. What is the main characteristic of globalization?53. How has globalization expanded in recent years?54. In the past, what was the main area in which globalization applied?55. List four areas, apart from trade in goods, that are now affected by globalization.Passage TwoQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage:The human brain has long fascinated scientists. A new discovery has revealed the extent to which the brain is involved in our sense of touch. Researchers have found that neurons in the brain react to the movement of a hair on our skin that is as little as a thousandth of a millimeter. This is an incredibly small distance, and shows just how sensitive our sense of touch is. Also, the brain actually changes in response to touch: the more we use our sense of touch, the more the brain adapts and the more sensitive it becomes. This finding could have important implications for those who have lost their sense of touch through injury or illness.56. What has fascinated scientists for a long time?57. What have researchers discovered about the human sense of touch?58. How sensitive is our sense of touch?59. Does the brain change in response to touch?60. What implications could this discovery have for people who have lost their sense of touch?Passage ThreeQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:In many countries, there is a growing concern about the rise of lifestyle diseases. These are diseases that are caused by a person's lifestyle, including such factors as diet, lack of physical activity, and smoking. Lifestyle diseases include heart disease, diabetes,and some forms of cancer. They are called "silent killers" because they often develop slowly over a long period of time and can go unnoticed until they become serious. The good news is that many lifestyle diseases are preventable. By adopting healthier habits, such as eating a balanced diet and exercising regularly, people can reduce their risk of developing these diseases. Governments also have a role to play in promoting healthy lifestyles by providing information and creating environments that make it easier for people to make healthy choices.61. What are lifestyle diseases?62. What causes lifestyle diseases?63. Name three examples of lifestyle diseases.64. Why are lifestyle diseases called "silent killers"?65. What can people do to reduce their risk of developing lifestyle diseases?WritingWrite a composition of about 150 words."Advantages and Disadvantages of Being an Only Child"二、2005年真题：Reading ComprehensionPassage OneQuestions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage:Social networking sites are a recent phenomenon that has taken the Internet by storm. These sites, such as MySpace, Facebook, and Bebo, enable users to create a profile and interact with other users by sharing information about themselves, their interests, and their activities. In many ways, social networking sites have become an important part of people's lives, especially those of young people. They offer a way of connecting with friends and meeting new people, and provide a platform for self-expression. However, social networking sites also have their disadvantages. They can be addictive, and can take up a lot of time that could be spent on other activities, such as studying or spending time with family and friends. They also pose a number of privacy risks, as users often share personal information that can be used by others for malicious purposes.51. What are social networking sites?52. What do social networking sites enable users to do?53. Who uses social networking sites?54. What are the advantages of social networking sites?55. What are the disadvantages of social networking sites? Passage TwoQuestions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage: Astronomy is the study of our universe, including planets, stars, and galaxies. It is a fascinating subject that has intrigued people for centuries. Early astronomers used simple telescopes to observe the heavens, and discovered many strange and wonderful phenomena, such as comets and supernovae. Today, astronomers use powerful telescopes and other high-tech equipment to study the universe ingreater detail. They also use mathematical models and computer simulations to help them understand the complex processes that occur in space. One of the most exciting areas of astronomy today is the search for extraterrestrial life. While no conclusive evidence of life beyond Earth has been found, astronomers believe that there is a strong possibility that other forms of life exist in the universe.56. What is astronomy?57. What did early astronomers discover?58. How do astronomers study the universe today?59. What do astronomers use mathematical models and computer simulations for?60. What is one of the most exciting areas of astronomy today? Passage ThreeQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage:Global warming is one of the most serious environmental problems facing the world today. It is caused by an increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere, particularly carbon dioxide, which is released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels. The rise in global temperatures that is associated with global warming is causing a variety of environmental problems, such as melting glaciers, rising sea levels, and more frequent and intense weather events. The effects of global warming are not limited to the environment; they also have economic and social impacts. For example, changes in the climate can affect agriculture and food supplies, and can lead to the displacement of people from their homes due to rising sea levels.61. What is global warming?62. What causes global warming?63. What are some of the environmental problems associated with global warming?64. What are some of the economic impacts of global warming?65. What are some of the social impacts of global warming? WritingWrite a composition of about 150 words."A Job I Would Like to Have and Why"。

Write your right letter on the Answer Sheet:(20%)Passage 13Public goods are those commodities whose enjoyment nobody can be effectively excluded. Everybody is free to enjoy the benefits of these commodities and one person’s use does not reduce the possibilities of anybody else’s enjoying the same good.Examples of public goods are not as rare as one might expect. A flood control dam is a public good. Once the dam is built, all persons living in the area will benefit—irrespective of(不考虑)their own contribution to the construction cost of the dam. The same holds true for highway signs or aids navigation(航海).Once a lighthouse is built, no ship of any nationality can be effectively excluded from use of the lighthouse for navigational purposes. National defense is another example. Even a person who voted against military costs or did not pay any taxes will benefit from the protection afforded.It is no easy task to determine the social costs and social benefits associated with a pubilc good. There is no practicable way of charging drivers for looking at highway signs, sailors for watching a lighthouse and citizens for the security provided to them through national defense. Because the market does not provide the necessary signals, economic study is to be replaced by the impersonal judgment of the marketplace.1.What does the passage mainly discuss?A. A specific group of commodities.B. The economic structure of the marketplace.C. Mechanisms for safer navigation.D. The advantage of lowering taxes.2.Which of the following would NOT be an example of a public good as described in the passage?A.A stoplight.B.A bridge.C.A fire truck.D.A taxicab.3.In Paragraph 2,the word “holds”(Para. 2,Line 3)could best be replaced by which of the following?A. hasB. isC. graspsD. carries4.According to the passage, finding out the social costs of a public good is a _________.A. matter of personal judgmentB. daily administrative dutyC. difficult procedureD. citizen’s responsibility5.Which of the following statements best describes the organization of the first two paragraphs?A. A general concept is defined and then examples are given.B. Several generalizations are presented from which various conclusions are drawn.C. Persuasive language is used to argue against a popular idea.D. Suggestions for the application of an economic concept are offered.Passage 2At the bottom of the world lies a mighty continent still wrapped in the Ice Age and, until recent times, unknown to man. It is a great landmass with mountain ranges whose extent and elevation are still uncertain. Much of the continent is a complete blank on our maps. Man has explored, on foot, less than one percent of its area.4Antarctica differs fundamentally from the Arctic regions. The Arcitc is an ocean, covered with drifting packed ice and hemmed in by the landmasses of Europe, Asia, and North America. The Antarctic is a continent almost as large as Europe and Australia combined, centered roughly on the South Pole and surrounded by the most unobstructed water areas of the world—the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans.The continental ice sheet is more than two miles high in its center; thus, the air over the Antarctic is far more iced than it is over the Arctic regions. This cold air current from the land is so forceful that it makes the nearby seas the stormiest in the world and makes unlivable those regions whose counterparts(配对物) at the opposite end of the globe are livable. Thus, more than million persons live within 2,000 miles of the North Pole in an area that includes most of Alaska, Siberia, and Scandinavia—a region rich in forest and mining industries. Apart from a handful of weather stations, within the same distance of the South Pole there is not a single tree, industry or settlement.6.The best title for this selection would be ______.A. IcelandB. Land of OpportunityC. Utopia at LastD. The Unknown Continent7.At the time this article was written, our knowledge of Antarctica was ______.A. very limitedB. vastC. fairly richD. nonexistent8.Antarctica is bordered by the ______.A. Pacific OceanB. Indian OceanC. Atlantic OceanD. All three9.The Antarctic is made uninhabitable primarily by ______.A. iceB. calm seasC. cold airD. lack of knowledge about the continent10.According to this article ______.A. 2,000 people live on the Antarctic ContinentB. a million people live within 2,000 miles of the South PoleC. weather conditions within a 2,000 miles radius of the South Pole make settlements impracticalD. only a handful of natives inhabit AntarcticaPassage 3If there is any single element that makes for success in living, it is the ability to profit by defeat. Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to study defeat and actually profit by it in his next task. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are sure indeed to fail. For it isn’t defeat that makes you fail; it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are daily incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it without humiliation, study it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to heal its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing can arouse(唤起) within use such a compelling desire to succeed. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended(悬挂).It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you use the power which defeat gives, you can5accomplish with it far more than you are capable of.11.What does the author know?A. It’s not mentioned in the passage.B .He knows every success in life.C. He knows at least several cases of success.D. He knows every success that has been achieved by man.12.The person who was able to analyze defeat is likely ______.A. to achieve successB. to be a successorC. to be ashamed of his defeatD. to let a baby grasp a rod13.The author ______.A. advises you to confuse defeat with failureB. wants you to mistake defeat for failureC. orders you to confuse defeat with failureD. warns you not to confuse defeat with failure14.Defeat is valuable ______.A. in that it provides the guide and encouragement to successB. because it forces you to face it without humiliationC. because it makes you failD. because of your own refusal to see in it the guide and encouragement to success15.What does the author advice one to do with the power which defeat gives?One should ______.A. make unfair use of itB. turn it to practical accountC. explore itD. explain itPassage 4Dorothea Dix left home at an early age of her own free will to live with her grandmother.At fourteen, Dorothea was teaching school at Worcester, Massachusetts. A short time after she had begun teaching, she established a school for young girls in her grandparents’ home. Stress was placed on moral character at Dorothea’s school, which she conducted until she was thirty-three.She was forced to give up teaching at her grandparents’ home, however, when she became ill.A few year of inactivity followed.In 1841 Dorothea began to teach again, accepting a Sunday school class in the East Cambridge, Massachusetts’ jail. Here, she first came upon insane people locked up together with criminals.In those days insane people were treated even worse than criminals. There were only a few asylums(疯人院) in the entire country. Therefore jails, poor houses, and houses of correction were used to confine the insane.Dorothea Dix made a careful investigation of the inhuman treatment of the insane. It was considered unfit for a woman to devote herself to such work at this time. But this did not stop Dorothea Dix in her efforts to provide proper medical care for the insane.Gradually, because of her investigations, conditions were improved. More than thirty mental6institutions were founded or reestablished in the United States because of her efforts. Dorothea also extended her investigations to England and to other parts of Europe.During the Civil War, Dorothea served as superintendent(主管) of women hospital nurses in the Union army. When the war was over, she returned to her work of improving conditions for insane people.16.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. The Treatment of Mental Illness.B. The Life of a Young English WomanC. An American HumanitarianD. Social Problems of the Nineteenth Century17.The word “stress”in Line 3 could best be replaced by?A. EmphasisB. StrainC. Relative loudnessD. Physical pressure18.How did Dorothea Dix first become aware of the mistreatment of insane people?A. She taught Sunday school in a jailB. She worked in an insane asylum as a young woman.C. Her grandmother treated the mentally ill.D. She was asked to investigate the problem.19.Which of the following statements about Dorothea Dix is best supported by the passage?A. She spent time studying criminal law.B. Many people believed that her work was improper.C. She considered most criminals mentally unstable.D. Her grandmother was a teacher.20.The author implies that Dorothea Dix’s work with the insane was interrupted because of ______.A. an illnessB. her trip to EnglandC. the Civil WarD. her grandmother’s deathⅦ.Translate the following into English with words or phrases given in brackets, and then write your sentences on the Answer Sheet:(25%)1.他出生于两条河流交汇处的一个小镇。

全国2003年1月高等教育自学考试英语（二）试题4

Passage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.“Culture consists of all shared products of human society”(Robertson ,1981).This means not only such material things as cities, organizations and schools,　but also non-material things such as ideas, customs, family patterns ,and languages. Putting it simply, culture refers to the entire way of life of a society , “the ways of a people”.Language is a part of culture and plays a very important role in it. Some social scientists consider it the keystone of culture. Without language,　the maintaining of culture would not be possible .On the other hand ,language is influenced and shaped by culture, and it reflects culture. In the broadest sense, language is the symbolic representation of a people, and it comprises(包含)their historical and cultural backgrounds, as well as their approach to life and their ways of living and thinking.We should not go further into the relationship between language and culture. What needs to be stressed here is that the two interact(相互影响),and that understanding of one requires understanding of the other.Social scientists tell us that cultures differ from one another, that each culture is unique. As cultures are diverse, languages are diverse. It is only natural that with differences in cultures and differences in languages, difficulties often arise in communicating between cultures and across cultures. Understanding is not always easy.Learning a foreign language well means more than merely mastering the pronunciation, grammar, words and idioms. It also means learning to see the world as native speakers of that language see it, learning the ways in which their language reflects the ideas, customs, and behaviors of their society, learning to understand their “language of the mind”. Learning a language, in fact, is inseparable(不可分割的)from learning its culture.31.According to the first paragraph, the term “culture.” refers to ( ).A. things like cities, organizations and schoolsB.ideas, customs, family patterns and languagesC.all things manufactured by human raceD.the total that constitutes a society32.The second paragraph tells us about ( )A. the role of language in cultureB. the relationship between language and cultureC.the influence of culture on languageD.the representation of culture33.Which of the following statements is NOT true according to some social scientists?A. Language reflects cultureB. Language shapes cultureC. Language represents cultureD. Language maintains culture34.The passage implies that there will be no difficulty in communication if people from different countries can ( )A. speak each other’s languagesB. master each other’s languages and culturesC. tell the differences between languages and culturesD. communicate in the same languages35.This passage is probably taken from a book ( )A. on culturesB. on language learningC. on learning a language through cultureD. on communication in different countries。

Communication networks are arrangements of hardware and software that allow users to exchange information. This very broad definition will help you begin learning about one of thefastest-growing areas in electrical engineering and computer science. Once we examine some common communication networks, we will develop a more precise definition. We will elaborate on the importance of this field.2. The telephone network is the most familiar and ubiquitous communication network. It is designed for voice transmission. An office computer network is a communication network used by organizations to connect personal computers and workstations so they may share programs and data and to link those computers to printers and, possibly, to some other peripherals(e.g., file servers that provide mass storage or plotters). Computer networks also are used in manufacturing plants to connect machine tools, robots, and sensors. The Internet is a network of computer networks that covers most of the world and allows millions of users to exchange messages and computer files and some limited video and audio signals.3.Although all these systems are communication networks, they are quite different in the information that they transmit and in the way they are used. Nevertheless, they operate on similar principles. The unifying characteristics of all networks help us develop a definition of communication networks that describes the arrangements of hardware and software that we study in this text. Each system described is designed to exchange information, which may be voice, sounds, graphics, pictures, video, text, or data, among users. Most often the users are humans, but they also can be computer programs or devices. Before the information is transmitted, it is converted into bits(zeros or ones). Then the bits are sent to a receiver as electrical or optical signals (electromagnetic waves, to be more precise). Finally, the information is reconstructed from the received bits. This transmission method, called digital transmission, reduced the transmission errors.SECTION 2 READING COMPREHENSION(40 points)IV. Directions: Skim Passage 2 and read the statements given right after the passage and judge whether they are True or False. Write the corresponding answer you choose on your ANSWER SHEET.(10 points, 1 point for each)Passage 21.Everybody feels pain sometimes: the pain in the head that comes after eating ice cream or drinking cold water; the sudden muscular pain; the “stitch”that attacks long-distance runners or others whose activities have put great demands on the oxygen supply of the body. These transient pains are not cause for alarm; they usually disappear quickly, return rarely and signify very little.2.In contrast are the unusual, chronic, or exceptionally severe pains that require attention from a doctor, who can determine whether or not they require special care. Angina pectoris(pain of the chest) is a heart pain that lasts from two or three minutes to ten or fifteen. Identification is extremely important, because special drugs are needed for relief and the doctor’s understandingand advice may prevent recurrence of the condition.3.Only a doctor can recognize what are called referred pains. These originate at one point, but are felt at another to which they have been carried by the nerves. A person with continuous pain becomes irritated, tired easily, has difficulty in sleeping, loses appetite, and may even become the victim of what has been called an anxiety state or nervous breakdown. Few diseases develop without pain at some state, and many involve so characteristic a pain as to make diagnosis certain. Whenever a pain is so severe, so prolonged, and so unusual as to arouse alarm, a doctor should be consulted.31.Transient pains should usually be investigated.32.All chronic pains require special care.33.Angina pectoris would probably be classified as unusual.34.Chronic and referred pains are alike in that both last for a long time.35.Pains can be useful as a signal of the presence of disease.36.Transient pains are different from referred pains.37.Pains can serve as an aid in the diagnosis of disease.38.A person with continuous pains is usually good-tempered.39.Chronic pains are felt some distance from their source.40.All chronic pains can be identified and treated.V. Directions: Read Passages 3 and 4 and choose the correct answer. Write the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET.(20 points, 1 point for each)Passage 31.Every year a great number of babies and young children die or are injured in fires. One out of every five fires is caused by careless smoking or by children playing with matches and lighters. Don’t tempt children by leaving mat ches or lighters around a room.2.Never leave a child alone in a house. In just a few seconds they could start a fire. Or a fire could start and trap them. A child will panic in a fire and will not know what to do. Unless a parent is around to help, a child may try to hide under a bed or in a closet. Home fire drills are a sound idea. The best way to stop panic in case of fire is to know what to do before a fire breaks out.3.Your first thought in a fire should always be escape. Far too many people become victims because they do not know the killing power and speed of fire. If a fire is very small and has just started, you can put it out yourself. Do this if you have the proper tools on hand. In any case always send the children outside first. Smoke, not fire, is the real killer in a blaze. According to studies, as many as eight out of ten deaths in fires are due to inhaling fumes long before the flames ever came near the person.4.Burns are another hazard to tots. Fireplaces, space heaters, floor furnaces, and radiatorshave all caused horrible burns to babies. Since you cannot watch your child all the time, you must screen fireplaces. Put guards around heaters and radiators.5.Some people use a vaporizer or portable heater in a child’s room. If you do, be su re you place it out of reach. Be sure, too, that it is not placed too close to blankets or bedclothes.e care in the kitchen. It is not safe to let an infant crawl or a small child walk around the kitchen while you are preparing meals. There is danger of your tripping and spilling something hot on the child. There is even danger of a child pulling in a hot pot off the stove on to herself. Also, do not use tablecloths that hang over the table edge. Children can easily pull the cloth and whatever is on the table down. Be aware of these dangers and protect your child.41. The best title of the passage can be ________.A. Better Safe Than SorryB. How to Protect ChildrenC. Escape From FireD. Be Careful in the Kitchen42. Careless smoking or children playing with matches and lighters causes ______.A. most deaths of childrenB. one out of five firesC. eight out of ten deaths in firesD. five out of ten fires43. A child will probably do the following in a fire EXCEPT ______.A. panickingB. not knowing what to doC. trying to hide under a bed or in a closetD. calling for help44. In paragraph 2, the word “sound” is closest in meaning to ________.A. healthyB. safeC. sensibleD. thorough45. The best way to stop panic in the case of fire is to ________.A. call a neighborB. be preparedC. call a policemanD. run away46. When caught in a fire, a person’s first thought should always be ________.A. panicB. preventionC. escapeD. putting out the fire47. The real killer in a fire is _________.A. smokeB. flamesC. fuelD. blaze48. Burns can be caused by _______.A. harmful toysB. bedclothesC. blanketsD. space heaters49. Which statement is NOT mentioned in the passage?A. Never leave a young child alone at home.B. Burns can be very dangerous to children.C. Place heaters out of the reach of children.D. Do not work in a kitchen when a child is in it.50. From the passage, we can infer that _______.A. adults know how to handle firesB. many children start fires in a houseC. some fire fighters are not well trainedD. adults are always very careful about fire.Passage 41. When Jules V erne wrote Journey to the Center of the Earth in 1864, there were many conflicting theori es about the nature of the earth’s interior. Some geologists though that it contained a highly compressed ball of incandescent gas, while others suspected that it consisted of separate graphite shells, each made of a different material. Today well over a century later, there is still little direct evidence of what lies beneath our feet. Most of our knowledge of the earth’s interior comes not from mines or bore holes, but from the study of seismic waves—powerful pulses of energy released by earthquakes.2. T he way that seismic waves travel shows that the earth’s interior is far from uniform. The continents and the seabed are formed by the crust—a thin sphere of relatively light, solid rock. Beneath the crust lies the mantle, a very different layer that extends approximately halfway to the earth’s center. There the rock is the subject of a battle between increasing heat and growing pressure.3. In its high levels, the mantle is relatively cool; at greater depths, high temperatures make the rock behave more like a liquid than a solid. Deeper still, the pressure is even more intense, preventing the rock from melting in spite of a higher temperature.4. Beyond a depth of around 2,900 kilometers, a great change takes place and the mantle gives way to the core. Some seismic waves cannot pass through the core and others are bent by it. From this and other evidence, geologists conclude that the outer core is probably liquid, with a solid center. It is almost certainly made of iron, mixed with smaller amount of other elements such as nickel.5. The conditions in the earth’s core make it a far more alien world than space. Its solid iron heart is subjected to unimaginable pressure and has a temperature of about 9,000°F. Although scientists can speculate about its nature, neither humans nor machines will ever be able to visit it.51. The word “conflicting” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to ________.A. controllingB. outdatedC. importantD. opposing52. The geologists _________ about the nature of the ear th’s interior.A. agree with each otherB. disagree with each otherC. are sureD. have found enough evidence53. Seismic waves are _________ .A. pulses of energyB. sound wavesC. electromagnetic wavesD. radio waves54. The way that seismic waves travel shows that ________.A. the interior of the earth is rockB. the interior of the earth is divided into different layersC. the interior of the earth is metalD. the crust and the mantle are composed of exactly the same substance55. The word “there” at the end of Paragraph 2 refers to the ________.A. seabedB. crustC. mantleD. earth’s center56. What is true about the mantle?A. It is similar to the crust.B. It is a very thin layer of the earth.C. It is cooler as it goes deeper.D. It is a completely different layer from the crust.57. The phrase “gives way to” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________.A. runs alongB. rubs againstC. turns intoD. floats on58. The word “it” in Paragraph 4 refers to t he _________.A. mantleB. coreC. changeD. depth59. The inner core of the earth is NOT __________.A. liquidB. made of ironC. solidD. mixed with nickel60. Why does the author state that the earth’s core is “more alien” than space?A. Because government funds are not interested in the characteristics of the earth’s core.B. Because scientists are not interested in the characteristics of the earth’s core.C. Because the pressure and high temperature there prevent scientists from doing research.D. Because the earth’s core is made of elements that are dangerous to humans.Ⅵ. Directions: Passage 5 is taken from the TEXTBOOK. Read the passage carefully and choose the best answer. Write the corresponding letter of the answer on your ANSWER SHEET. (10 points, 1 points for each)Passage 51. In spite of the difficulties of predicting future trends in world trade, we can specify factors that will be important. Some of these are: population growth; possible scarcity of commodities, the food and energy situation, relations with the Third World (developing nations),pressures to preserve the environment, and international cooperation on political, social, economic, and monetary problems.2. If population growth continues at its present pace, the future balance between food demand and supply may become dependent on new dietary patterns. Reduced consumption of meat, increased use of new high protein food made from soybeans, and development of ocean resources for food are some alternatives that must be considered.3. As the population grows, prices of commodities will fluctuate. As countries endeavor to increase yields on existing croplands through intensified use of water, energy, and fertilizers, the cost of commodities will rise.4. Growth of trade will depend greatly on availability of energy sources. There may still bea trillion barrels of recoverable oil in the Middle East. But the oil crisis of 1974 has led to renewed interest in coal and to a search for alternative sources of energy. Solar, geothermal, and nuclear energy will play a large role in the years to come.5. Solar energy is available in various forms. Buildings can be heated and cooled by direct use of solar radiation, crops and trees, which are the most efficient converters of sunlight into energy, can be grown for their energy potential, wastes can be burned as fuel, sunlight can be converted into DC (direct current) electricity, electric power can be derived from the sun-warmed surface waters of the ocean (ocean thermal power), lastly, solar radiation can be converted to heat that will drive electric power generators (solar thermal power). Serious problems still remain as to transportation and storage of solar energy.6. Geothermal energy is the energy contained within the earth. Heat is abundantly available deep in the earth’s core and is constantly being produced. However, this heat is usually located at too deep a level for commercial exploitation. Sometimes heat comes to the surface in the form of lava and geysers. In short, very little is know on the use of geothermal energy, and it has barely been exploited.7. Nuclear energy is produced in nuclear power plants. At these plants atoms of uranium are split, thus releasing masses of energy. Another source of energy under development is the nuclear fusion of certain atoms of hydrogen. This could eventually replace natural gas as a source of energy.8. In future trade the key development to watch is the relationship between the industrialized and the developing nations. Third World countries export their mineral deposits and tropical agricultural products, which bring them desired foreign exchange. Tourism has also been greatly responsible for the rapid development of some developing nations. Many Third World nations with high unemployment and low wages have seen an emigration of workers to the developed nations. Western Europe has received millions of such workers from Mediterranean countries.9. The developing nations profit when these workers bring their savings and their acquired technical skills back home. Many developing nations benefit when Western nations establish manufacturing in their countries to take advantage of cheap labor.10. As economies mature, economic growth rates tend to level off. The rate of populationgrowth is leveling off today in Western nations. This leveling-off eventually leads to static non-growth markets. A point of saturation sets in—technology and innovation have seemed to achieve the impossible, but then how much further can it go? Herman Kahn, in his book The Next 200 Years, says that a shift in priorities will have to occur for industrialized nations. No longer is the creation of money and jobs essential, it is rather the improvement of the quality of life that must be our concern. Today pollution is of major concern for industrialized nations. Environmentalists are worried about the relationship between industrial objectives and preserving the environment. In developing nations, however, the problem of pollution is ignored for the sake of development.11. The Western World will eventually move to a period of relatively low economic growth, coupled with a high rate of unemployment. A so-called welfare society will emerge. The unemployed in the new welfare society will be taken care of by the employed through generous contributions to the social welfare system.12. Political questions remain as to the world’s future. We can only speculate as to whether organized markets such as the Common Market and COMECON could eventually merge. In the present political climate, this would seem impossible, although some cooperation agreements are already in effect. Obviously a merger between the Western and Eastern European markets would greatly enhance world trade.13. International monetary cooperation will have a significant impact on future trade. If the IMF countries are not able to agree upon a new international monetary order in the years to come, international trade may become too risky for some companies to get involved in . If the IMF is unable to create sufficient international liquidity reserves in the future, there may not be enough liquidity to sustain growth in trade.14. However, growing international consultation and cooperation in economic, monetary, and political matters will certainly contribute to the flourishing of world trade for years to come.61. If population growth continues at its present pace, how can people keep the balance between food demand and supply?A. People should increase the consumption of meat.B. People should increase the consumption of low protein food.C. People should turn to new dietary patterns.D. People should produce more crops.62. Trade growth will depend greatly on ___________.A. energy sourcesB. dietary patternsC. increased consumption of soybeansD. increased yields on existing croplands63. The oil crisis of 1974 caused ___________.A. countries to depend more on oilB. countries to find other energy sources to replace oilC. coal and nuclear energy to become less popularD. countries to become more and more indifferent to coal64. The problem with solar energy is that _________.A. sunlight cannot be used directly for heating buildingsB. sunlight cannot be used to drive electric power generatorsC. it is difficult to transport and store solar energyD. it is difficult to convert sunlight into DC electricity65. Geothermal energy has not been exploited because ____________.A. it is located too deep in earth’s core for commercial useB. it is not sufficient enoughC. little is known about exploratory technologyD. it often comes to the surface in the form of lava and geysers66. Which of the following is NOT true according to paragraph 8?A. Third World countries export their mineral deposits so as to get foreign exchange.B. Workers in Third World countries emigrate to developed countries.C. Tourism will contribute much to the development of Third World countries.D. Some developing countries will absorb large numbers of foreign workers to work in their countries.67. Industrial nations show great concern for ____________.A. creation of new jobsB. pollution and environmental preservationC. high unemployment and low wagesD. the decreasing economic growth rate68. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 10?A. Western nations are facing economic saturation.B. Developing countries pay much attention to the problem of pollution.C. As economies mature, economic growth rates tend to speed up.D. A welfare society will emerge in developing nations.69. In a welfare society ______________.A. people don’t need to work but can enjoy the welfare provided by their countriesB. more people will be laid off with the rapid growth of the economyC. rate of unemployment is very low due to low economic growthD. people who are out of work will be taken care of economically by their countries70. We can conclude from Paragraphs 12,13 and 14 that _________.A. the Common Market and COMECON would eventually mergeB. the future of the international trade will depend on international consultation and cooperationC. there would be monetary cooperation between Western and Eastern European countriesD. future international liquidity reserves would influence growth in tradeSECTION 3 QUESTIONS AND TRANSLATION (30 points)Ⅶ.

Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points for each item)Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Albert Einstein had a great effect on science and history. An American university president once commented that Einstein had created a new outlook, a new view of the universe. It may be some time before the average mind understands fully the identity (特性) of time and space and so on —but even ordinary men understand now that the universe is something larger than ever thought before.By 1914 the young Einstein had gained world fame. He accepted the offer to becomea professor at the Prussian Academy of Science in Berlin. He had few duties, little teaching and unlimited opportunities for study, but soon his peace and quiet were broken by the First World War.Einstein hated violence. The misery of war affected him deeply, and he sat unhappily in his office doing little. He lost interest in his research. Only when peace came in 1918 was he able to get back to work,In the years following the First World War, honors were increasingly heaped on him. He became the head of the Kaiser Whilhem Institute of Theoretical Physics. In 1921 he won the Nobel Prize for Physics, and he was highly honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism (纳粹主义) when he was driven from Germany because he was a Jew.21. The first paragraph is mainly about _____.A. a new outlook of the universeB. the feelings of an American college presidentC. the change in human thought caused by EinsteinD. the difficulty in teaching Einstein's theory22. From the second paragraph, we know Albert Einstein ____.A. enjoyed world popularityB. was the head of an academyC. was a famous teacherD. enjoyed studying wars23. Which of the following statements about Einstein is true?A. He achieved more than any other scientists in history.B. Our ideas about the universe differ from one another because of him.C. He kept working until peace came in 1918.D. His research practically stopped during the First World War.24. In the years following the First World War, _____.A. Einstein began to be accepted even by ordinary menB. more and more honors were granted to EinsteinC. Einstein became the head of the Prussian Academy of ScienceD. Einstein was not honored in Germany until the rise of Nazism25. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that _____.A. Albert Einstein was interested in nothing but scienceB. Einstein was forced to serve in the German armyC. Einstein made a lot more breakthroughs in his research after the First World WarD. his reputation was ruined because of NazismPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Could you imagine your parents choosing your husband or wife for you? And can you imagine not setting eyes on him or her until your wedding day? This situation is common in India, the Middle East and many parts of Africa. Marriage customs around the world often differ from our own. We don't realize that people in other places often get married in very different ways — and with different motives.In many countries, marriage is a practical matter. A marriage provides a safe and stable home for the husband and wife. It also joins two families, which benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy. Marriage also brings children, making sure the couple will be taken care of in old age. Because a marriage is important for the whole family, some cultures don't let young people choose whom to marry. Just as there are many different reasons for marriage, there are also many different wedding rituals. Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the happy couple. In a typical Western wedding, the bride seeks good luck by wearing "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue." Something old represents the past. Something new represents success in the future. Something borrowed reminds the bride she can get help from her friends and family. And something blue reminds her to be true to her husband.In Poland, one wedding tradition is not only lucky, but also very practical. The wedding guests pin money to the bride's dress while she is dancing. The money is meant to bring kick and to help the young couple build their new life. In Bermuda, the young couple plants a tree in the yard of their new home. Once they move in, they take good care of the tree and make it grow. The planting of the tree is a good metaphor (比喻) for marriage. A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.26. Which of the following statements DOES NOT support the idea that marriage isa practical matter?A. The couple may have a safe and stable home through their marriage.B. The parents had better help their children choose whom to marry.C. A marriage benefits the couple's parents and makes them happy.D. A marriage brings children who will take care of the couple when they are old.27. The word "rituals" (para.3, line 2) means _____.A. formsB. customsC. traditionsD. ceremonies28. In a typical Western wedding, the bride wears something blue to ________.A. seek good luckB. represent the pastC. represent success in the futureD. remind her to be true to her husband29. Although cultures differ in different countries, one thing in common when a young couple gets married is that _____.A, people wish them to take care of each otherB. people wish them to get practical benefits from the marriageC. people wish them to have good luck in their new lifeD. people wish them to make money at the wedding ceremony30. Which of the following statements best summarizes the subject of this passage?A. People across the world get married in different ways and for different reasons.B. Every culture has its own ways of bringing good luck to the young couple.C. A truly good marriage is something that grows with care.D. In many countries, marriage is a practical matter.Passage ThreeQuestion 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.While popular in the U.S., the April Fool's Day tradition is even more prevalent in European countries, such as France and Great Britain. Although the roots of the traditional tricking are unclear, the French and the British both have claims onthe origin of the celebration.One theory holds that the first April Fool's Day was on April 1 of the year when King of France instituted (设立) the new calendar. This new system placed the day that had formerly been the first day of a new year on April 1. Many people were reluctant to adjust to the new calendar and continued to celebrate New Year's Day on what had become the first day of April. Thus, they became the first April fools. An English story about the day, however, holds that it began sometime during the 1200s. At the time, King John of England was in the habit of making a road out of nearly every path he walked regularly. The citizens of one particular farm village were aware of this. To avoid having their green pastures (牧场)disturbed with one of king's roads, they built a fence that prevented the king from walking through their countryside. The king sent a group of messengers (信使) to inform the villagers that they must remove the barrier. Upon hearing that the king was planning to do this, however, the villagers developed a plan of their own. When the messengers arrived, they found what appeared to be a community of mad people, with people behaving in a strange manner, throwing things and running around wildly. The messengers, alarmed at what they found, reported to King John that these people were so mad as to be beyond punishment. So, the villagers saved their farmland by tricking the King. In Great Britain, tradition only allows April Fool's tricks from midnight to noon on April 1. Those who try to play tricks in the afternoon become the fools themselves.31. Which of the following is true according to the first paragraph?A. April Fool's Day is more popular in the U.S.B. April Fool's Day is more popular in France and Great Britain.C. No one is sure where the tradition of celebrating April Fool's Day originated.D. The celebration of April Fool's Day originated from both France and Great Britain.32. According to the second paragraph, many people continued to celebrate New Year's Day on April 1, because _____.A. they knew nothing about the new calendarB. they didn't want to accept the new calendarC. they wanted to receive gifts from their friendsD. they wanted to become the first April fools33. The word "holds" (para.3, line 1) means "_____",A. supportsB. conductsC. containsD. believes34. The third paragraph tells how the citizens of one particular farm village in England saved their farmland by ______,.A, building a fence B. throwing things to the messengersC. tricking the kingD. lighting with the messengers35. What is the main idea of paragraph three?A. How the tradition of celebrating April Fool's Day originated in Great Britain.B. How the citizens of one particular farm village saved their land from the king.C. King John of England wanted to make a road through one particular farm village.D. In Great Britain, tradition allows April Fool's tricks from midnight to noon. PART TWO (50 points)IV.
