CATTI三级笔译综合能力模拟题2020年(2)(总分100, 做题时间120分钟)Cloze TestAs someone who researches generational differences, I find one of the most frequent questions I'm asked is "What generation am I in?"If you were born before 1980, that's a relatively easy question to answer: the Silent Generation【C1】______ born between 1925 and 1945; baby boomers were born between 1946 and 1964; Gen X followed (born between 1965 and 1979).Next【C2】______ millennials, born after 1980. But where do millennials end, and when does the next generation begin? Until recently, I (and many others) thought the last millennial birth year would be 1999 — today's 18-year-olds.【C3】______, that changed a few years ago, when I started to【C4】______ big shifts in teens' behavior and【C5】______ in the yearly surveys of 11 million young people that I analyze for my research. Around 2010, teens started to spend their time【C6】______differently from the generations that【C7】______ them. Then, around 2012, sudden shifts in their psychological well-being began to appear. Together, these changes pointed to a generational cutoff around 1995, 【C8】______ meant that the kids of this new, post-millennial generation were already in college.These teens and young adults all have one thing in common: Their childhood or adolescence【C9】______ with the rise of the smartphone.A 2015 survey found that two out of three U.S. teens owned an iPhone. 【C10】______ this reason, I call them iGen, and as I explain in my new book "iGen: Why Today's Super-Connected Kids are Growing up Less Rebellious, More Tolerant, Less Happy — and Completely Unpreparedfor Adulthood", they're the first generation to spend their adolescence with a smartphone.What makes iGen different? Growing up with a smartphone has【C11】______ nearly every aspect of their lives. They spend so much time【C12】______ the internet, texting friends and on social media — in the large surveys I analyzed for the book, an average of about six hours per day — that they have less leisure time for【C13】______ else.That includes【C14】______ was once the favorite activity of most teens: 【C15】_____with their friends. Whether it's going to parties, shopping at the mall, watching movies or aimlessly【C16】______ around, iGen teens are participating in these social activities at a 【C17】______ lower rate than their millennial predecessors.iGen shows another pronounced break with millennials: Depression, anxiety, and loneliness have shot【C18】______ since 2012, withhappiness declining.The teen suicide rate increased【C19】______ more than 50 percent, 【C20】______ did the number of teens with clinical-level depression.SSS_FILL1.【C1】分值: 1答案:C此处the Silent Generation意思为“沉默的一代”,表示整体概念,相当于第三人称单数,且此处描述过去的事情,用was,答案为C。

Then mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your Machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET.Questions 51-56 are based on the following passage.As viewed from space, the Earth's distinguishing characteristics are its blue waters and white clouds. Enveloped by an ocean of air consisting of 78% nitrogen and 21% oxygen, the planet is the only one in our solar system known to harbor life. Circling the Sun at an average distance of 149 million km (93 million miles), the Earth is the third planet from the Sun and the fifth largest planet in the solar system. Its rapid spin and molten nickel-iron core give rise to an extensive magnetic field which, coupled with the atmosphere, shields us from nearly all of the harmful radiation coming from the Sun and other stars. Most meteors burn up in the Earth's atmosphere before they can strike the surface. The planet's active geological processes have left no evidence of the ancient pelting it almost certainly received soon after it was formed. The Earth has a single natural satellite -- the Moon.51. Approximately how much of the Earth's atmosphere is nitrogen?A. One-fourthB. One-halfC. Three-fourthsD. All of it52. Which of the following helps to create the Earth's magnetic fields?A. Its blue watersB. Its nitrogen atmosphereC. Its molten metal coreD. The Moon53. What two factors help protect the Earth from radiation?A. Magnetic field and atmosphereB. Rapid spin and molten iron-nickel coreC. The Sun and the MoonD. Blue waters and white clouds54. Why does the Earth show almost no signs of having been hit by numerous meteors in the past?A. Humans have built over most of the craters.B. Most meteors fell into the ocean and not on land.C. The Earth's magnetic field repelled most meteors.D. The Earth's natural geologic activity has eliminated most traces.55. The main idea of this passage is thatA. there are life-supporting characteristics on the Earth.B. The Earth is predominantly water.C. The Earth has no common characteristics with other planets.D. The Earth is the only planet with a moon.56. This selection leads one to believe thatA. The Earth never gets hit by meteors.B. The Earth always gets hit by meteors.C. The Earth was hit by meteors some time in the past.D. The Earth may be bombarded by meteors in the near future.Questions 57-62 are based on the following passage.Since life began eons ago, thousands of creatures have come and gone. Some, such as the dinosaurs, became extinct due to naturally changing ecologic conditions. More recent threats to life forms are humans and their activities. Man has drained marshes, burned prairies, dammed and diverted rivers. Some of the more recent casualties of man's expansion have been the dodo, great auk, passenger pigeon, Irish elk, and Steller's sea cow. Sadly, we can no longer attribute the increasing decline in our wild animals and plant species to "natural" processes. Many species are dying out because of exploitation, habitat alteration or destruction, pollution, or the introduction of new species of plants and animals to an area. As mandated by Congress, protecting endangered species, and restoring them to the point where their existence is no longer jeopardized, is the primary objective of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's Endangered Species Program.57. Which of the following is a form of man's habitat alteration?A. Glacial encroachmentB. HurricanesC. Dammed riversD. Snowstorms58. Which of the following has become extinct due to man's destruction?A. African elephantB. Irish elkC. Giant pandaD. White Bengal59. Which of the following would be a likely theme for the next paragraph?A. Naturally changing ecological conditionsB. Animals that have become extinctC. Achievements of the government Endangered Species ProgramD. Programs that have destroyed natural habitats60. The tone of this passage isA. nationalistic.B. pro-wildlife.C. anti-wildlife.D. feminist.61. According to this passage,A. man is the cause of some animal extinction.B. animals often bring about their own extinction.C. Congress can absolutely end extinction of animals.D. a law is more important than human responsibility.62. Which of the following is NOT a cause of increasing decline of wild animal population?A. ExploitationB. PollutionC. Habitat alterationD. Congressional lawQuestions 63-68 are based on the following passage.The "Karat" marking on jewelry tells you what proportion of gold is mixed with other metals. If 14 parts of gold are mixed with 10 parts of base metal, the combination is called 14-Karat (14K) gold. The higher the Karat rating, the higher the proportion of gold in the object. The lowest Karat gold that can be marketed in the United States is 10-Karat gold. Jewelry does not have to be marked with its Karat quality, but most of it is. If there is a Karat quality mark, next to it must be the U.S. registered trademark of the person or company that will stand behind the mark, as required by the National Gold and Silver Stamping Act.63. If a ring is stamped 24K, it hasA. 204 parts of gold.B. 24 parts of gold.C. two and four-tenths parts of gold.D. 10 parts of gold.64.

This paragraph serves the consumer asA. important buying information.B. a challenge to buy more gold.C. a debate over gold prices.D. advice about buying silver.68. The Stamping Act isA. a regulation for tax.B. rule of law.C. a law that makes such stamping mandate.D. an implement.Questions 69-75 are based on the following passage.Mr. Faugel was convinced that student nervousness had affected their scores; to reduce the anxiety of these students who had already been tested, he gave 22 of them a beta blocker before readministration of the test. Their scores improved significantly. The other 8 students (who did not receive the beta blockers) improved only slightly. Second-time test-takers nationwide had average improvements which were similar to those in Faugel's non-beta blocker group. Beta blockers are prescription drugs which have been around for 25 years. These medications, which interfere with the effects of adrenalin, have been used for heart conditions and for minor stress such as stage fright. Now they are used for test anxiety. These drugs seem to help test-takers who have low scores because of test fright, but not those who do not know the material. Since there can be side effects from these beta blockers, physicians are not ready to prescribe them routinely for all test-takers.69. Where is the only place a person can obtain beta blockers?A. SupermarketB. Convenience storeC. Stationary storeD. Doctor's office70. Why are beta blockers not prescribed regularly?A. Students are expected to do poorly.B. There are side effects.C. The drugs are only 25 years old.D. They cause test anxiety.71. According to the passageA. all people can take beta blockers.B. beta blockers are widely prescribed.C. beta blockers work only on test anxiety.D. beta blockers work only to improve test scores if the test-taker truly knows the material.72. "Re-administration" in this passage refers toA. giving the test again to people without administering beta blockers.B. giving the test again to both groups after beta blockers have been administered to one group.C. giving the test to both groups of test-takers and then giving them beta blockers.D. giving the beta blockers without retesting.73. What possible use for beta blockers was NOT discussed in this passage?A. Test anxietyB. Pain reliefC. Minor stressD. Heart conditions74. Beta blockers work on some physical and emotional symptoms because theyA. fool a person into a healthier stance.B. interfere with the effects of adrenalin.C. produce side effects worse than the symptoms.D. primarily change human thought processes.75. Faugel's research showed that beta blockers given to his sampleA. increased scores less than the national average.B. increased scores the same as the national average.C. decreased scores.D. increased scores much more than the national average.Questions 76-80 are based on the following passage.During the past three years, the staff members of the Smithsonian Institution's Family Folklore Project have interviewed hundreds of persons about their family folklore. To prepare for these interviews we drew upon our academic backgrounds in folklore and American studies, and upon our personal backgrounds as members of families. In addition, we reviewed the major instruction guides in genealogy,oral history, family history, and folklore fieldwork. Although these publications were all helpful in some way, no single book was completely adequate since family folklore combines aspects of all the above disciplines. Over time we have developed guidelines and questions that have proven successful for us; we hope that the following suggestions will be helpful to anyone who wishes to collect the folklore of his or her own family.76. What would be the topic of the paragraph that would follow this one?A. How to gather family folkloreB. History of the Smithsonian InstitutionC. A description of genealogyD. Useful books on family folklore77. What can be inferred about the researchers who conducted the interviews?A. They were mathematicians and physicists.B. They were historians and sociologists.C. They had children.D. They wrote books.78. The purpose of this passage is toA. motivateB. berateC. instructD. cajole79. The assumption of this passage is thatA. anyone can successfully interview people about their family folklore without prior training.B. American history is inherent in the family folklore of Americans.C. American history and folklore of Americans have no connections.D. no guidelines are needed in the interviews.80. According to the passage, which kind of instructional guide was NOT consulted as a source?A. Clinical sociologyB. Genealogy guidesC. Oral historyD. Folklore fieldworkQuestions 81-86 are based on the following passage.Every summer, Jean Piaget retreats to his cabin in the Alps, where he spends most of his days analyzing the mass of research data generated over the past year at his Center for Genetic Epistemology. During long walks along the mountain trails, he mulls over the latest experimental results, and in the cool mountain evenings, he formulates his conclusions. With the approach of fall, he will descend from the mountain, manuscript for a book and several journal articles in hand. This time-honored procedure of careful observation followed by seclusion for thought and synthesis, has enabled him to become the most prolific, if not the most famous psychologist of the century.Piaget has only been widely known in this country since the 1960s, when his works were translated from their original French. But he has been recognized as an expert in the field of cognitive developmentin Europe since the 1930s. In fact, Piaget's publishing career can be traced to the year 1906, when as a child of ten, he published his careful notes on the habits of an albino sparrow he observed near his home in Switzerland. After his precocious debut as an ornithologist, he took an after-school job at the local natural history museum, soon becoming an expert on mollusks. At the age of sixteen he was recommended for a curator's position at the natural history museum in Geneva, but declined in favor of continuing his education.He studied natural science at the University of Neuchatel, obtaining his doctorate at the age of twenty-one. His readings in philosophy stimulated an intense interest in epistemology - the study of humans acquire knowledge. Convinced that cognitive development had a genetic basis, Piaget decided that the best way to approach epistemology would be through its behavioral and biological components. Psychology appeared to be the discipline that best incorporated this approach.81. According to the passage, Piaget went to the mountains every summer toA. collect data for his research.B. avoid the city heat and enjoy the cool weather.C. live in his cabin where he could analyze the data he collected there.D. analyze his research data he had collected before.82. The data Piaget was analyzing in his cabin in the Alps was mostly concerningA. his findings of the wild life in the mountains.B. his experiments on the plants and wild life in the mountains.C. his past experiments on how human beings obtain their knowledge.D. his working experience at his Center.83. Which of the following statements is true?A. When the weather became cool, he went down the mountain and started writing books and articles.B. When the weather was hot, he went up the mountain and began writing.C. When the weather was cool, he took long walks on the mountain trails.D. He liked to walk in the cool evening, thinking about his experiments.84. According to the passage, Piaget must have publishedA. several articles on his observation of sparrows.B. a few books and articles on the data he had collected.C. a variety of books and articles on his experiments.D. a great many books and articles on his observations and research.85. Piaget's main academic interest was inA. how human beings learn through observations.B. the genetic and cognitive basis for humans' cognitive development.C. analyzing research data through scientific method.D. behaviorists' views on acquiring knowledge.86. Piaget can be best regarded as a psychologist whoA. emphasizes the mental processes.B. stresses the importance of the biological basis.C. places more emphasis on the behavioral components.D. sees observations as being more important than others.Questions 87-95 are based on the following passage.My Views on GamblingMost of life is a gamble. Very many of the things we do involve taking some risk in order to achieve a satisfactory result. We undertake a new job with no idea of the more indirect consequences of our action. Marriage is certainly a gamble and so is the bringing into existence of children, who could prove sad liabilities. A journey, a business transaction, even a chance remark may result immediately or ultimately in tragedy. Perpetually we gamble - against life, destiny, chance, the unknown - call the invisible opponent what we will. Human survival and progress indicate that usually we win.So the gambling instinct must be an elemental one. Taking risks to achieve something is a characteristic of all forms of life, including humanity. As soon as man acquired property, the challenge he habitually issued to destiny found an additional expression in a human contest. Early may well have staked his flint axe, his bearskin, his wife, in the hope of adding to his possessions. The acquirement of desirable but nonessential commodities must have increased his scope enormously, while the risk of complete disaster lessened.So long as man was gambling against destiny, the odds were usually in his favor, especially when he used commonsense. But as the methods of gambling multiplied, the chances of success decreased. A wager against one person offered on average even chances and no third party profited by the transaction. But as soon as commercialized city life developed, mass gambling become common. Thousands of people now compete for large prizes, but with only minute chances of success, while the organizers of。

CATTI三级笔译综合能力模拟题2020年(1)(总分100,考试时间120分钟)Cloze TestDo students learn as much when they read digitally as they do in print? For both parents and teachers, knowing **puter-based media are improving or【C1】______ education is a question of concern. With the surge in【C2】______ of e-books, online learning and open educational resources, investigators have been trying to determine whether students do 【C3】______ well when reading an assigned text on a digital screen as【C4】______ paper. The answer【C5】______ the question, however, needs far more than a yes-no response.In my research, I **pared the ways in which we read in print and onscreen. Between 2013 and 2015, I gathered data from 429 university students【C6】______ from five countries (the U.S., Japan, Germany, Slovenia and India).The students in my study reported that print was【C7】______ more enjoyable, 【C8】______ things such as "I like the smell of paper" or that reading in print is "real reading". What's more, print gave them a sense of where they were in the book — they could "see" and "feel"【C9】______ in the text.Print was also judged to be【C10】______ on the eyes and less【C11】______ to encourage multitasking than digital reading. Almost half the **plained【C12】______ eyestrain from reading digitally ("my eyes burn"), and 67 percent indicated they were likely to multitask while reading digitally (compared with 41 percent when reading print).At the same time, respondents praised digital reading on【C13】______ counts, 【C14】______ the ability to read in the dark, 【C15】______ of finding material ("plenty of quick information"), saving paper and even the fact they could multitask【C16】______ reading.But the bigger question is whether students are learning as much when they read onscreen.A number of researchers have sought to measure learning by asking people to read a passage of text, 【C17】______ in print or on a digital device, and then testing **prehension.Most studies have found that participants scored about the same when reading in each【C18】______, though a few have indicated that students performed better on tests when they read in print.The problem, however, with learning-measurement studies is that their notion of "learning" has tended to be simplistic. Reading passages and answering questions【C19】______ maybe a familiar tool in standardized testing, but tells us little about any deeper level of understanding.In my view, 【C20】______ short-and-to-the-point materials may be a good fit for digital consumption, it's not the sort of reading likely to nurture the critical thinking we still talk about asa hallmark of university education.1. 1.【C1】3. 3.【C3】4. 4.【C4】5. 5.【C5】6. 6.【C6】7. 7.【C7】8. 8.【C8】9. 9.【C9】10. 10.【C10】11. 11.【C11】12. 12.【C12】13. 13.【C13】14. 14.【C14】15. 15.【C15】16. 16.【C16】17. 17.【C17】18. 18.【C18】19. 19.【C19】20. 20.【C20】V ocabulary Selection21. 21.With global oil prices______, the new cabinet raised domestic fuel and power prices.A. sneakingB. soaringC. soakingD. spinning22. 22.He kept making______remarks instead of straight forward yes-or-no replies.A. ambiguousB. advantageousC. ambitiousD. adventurous23. 23.It was______that the restaurant discriminated against black customers.A. assaultedB. ascribedC. addictedD. alleged24. 24.It gives an opportunity to reflect a lot, ______a lot about not only your own daily activities, but just what's going on in the world around you.A. contaminateB. contemplateC. consolidateD. contradict25. 25.Our journey was slow because the train stopped______at different villages.B. graduallyC. continuouslyD. continually26. 26.The seller shall not______any information relating to this order to any person not entitled to receive it.A. discoverB. uncoverC. revengeD. disclose27. 27.Different cultural backgrounds and values have deep influence on the______mode and the creation of the advertisement.A. expressiveB. efficientC. impressiveD. intensive28. 28.A new study shows that while mulling over a few options may weigh heavily on your mind, finally choosing one may just plain wear you______.A. downB. outC. offD. away29. 29.There is still a vast economic______between developing countries and the United States.A. cheatB. chasmC. chaseD. charm30. 30.You should not______your father's advice.

The town was lush and green; only Vail Pass, at 10, 617 ft. above sea level, was dusted in the champagne powder Colorado is known for.Climate change has had a direct and aggressive effect on winter tourism — and not just in Vail. In 2016-17, the first frost came two weeks later than the 20th century average, according to data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the last one nine days earlier. The season was nearly a month shorter than expected, a trend that's been worsening since the 1980s. NOAA's outlook for winter 2018-19 predicts warmer, drier and milder conditions across the US.Those working in ski towns and at resorts do not need meteorologists to tell them that; they can see the effects in their business. "Last year, we had radically less snow — our lowest snow year in 50 years, " says Auden Schendler, the Senior Vice President of Sustainability at Aspen Skiing Company in Aspen, Colo. "In low-snow years, you see about a billion dollars less in revenue." Those years also cost ski regions 17, 400 jobs, according to the 2018 economic report from Protect Our Winters, a nonprofit environmental organization.It's not just that there's less snow; it's that snow patterns are so unpredictable, ski towns, resorts and businesses can't count on conditions necessary for financial stability. To be considered "snow reliable, " a ski area must have more than 30 cm of snow depth (natural and man-made) during 100 days or during the entire Christmas through New Year's holiday period in at least seven out of 10 years. By those standards, all of the northeastern states (except Vermont) are projected to lose at least half of their ski areas, according to a review in the journal Current Issues in Tourism. And if climate change continues apace, 90% of ski resorts in the U.S. won't be able to open by Christmas by 2090.European ski areas have similar problems. By 2099, the Alps could lose up to 70% of their snow cover, according to research published by the European Geosciences Union — and just two to three weeks of operating at a loss could tank a ski area's financial season.In North America, multi-resort ski passes like the Epic Pass and Ikon Pass can help somewhat. "People can book last-minute trips to the resort with the best snow, " says Schendler. "But obviously, last-minute bookings make it harder to plan-for marketing, for occupancy and for projected revenue." Ironically, too much snow can also impact ski resorts. If a massive storm hits, as has happened more frequently, if unpredictably, in recent years, the sudden heavy snowfall can raise the threat of avalanches, leading resorts to shut down runs or even keep patrons indoors.Fluctuating snow patterns haven't completely derailed ski tourism yet. In fact, tourism numbers have remained static for two decades, Schendler says. But scientists and industry veterans feel like they can see a dark future. "At the current rate of warming, the ski industry is probably done by midcentury, " Schendler says. "We're not acting like we are in crisis, but we are."81. 81.This article was written to ______ .A. show some difficulties that the ski industry will meetB. demonstrate the future of the ski industryC. warn people the consequences of global warmingD. explain the relationship between snow and ski resorts82. 82.The word "aggressive" underlined in Paragraph 2 means______.A. angryB. boldC. hostileD. threatening83. 83.NOAA cannot be______.A. a government departmentB. an organization that cares about climate changeC. an organization that can predict changes in weatherD. a military institution84. 84.We can NOT learn from Paragraph 4 that______.A. the snow became less and unpredictableB. the standards which defines what is a "snow reliable ski area"C. all of the northeastern states have lost at least half of their ski areasD. 90% of the ski resorts in the US won't be able to open by the end of this century85. 85.The phrase "shut down" underlined in Paragraph 6 means______.A. to stop opening for businessB. to ask someone to stop talkingC. to keep someone or something inside a placeD. to block the entrances and exits86. 86.Auden Schendler is a (an)______.A. businessmanB. scientistC. officialD. skier87. 87.According to Auden Schendler, ______.A. last-minute trip is the future of the ski industryB. the ski industry is in crisisC. last year's snow was more than this yearD. a massive snow storm could offer some help to the ski industry88. 88.According to the passage, by about______, the ski industry is probably done.A. 2099B. 2050C. 2090D. 207089. 89.The passage is a(n)______.A. reportB. narrationC. expositionD. argumentation90. 90.An appropriate title for the passage should be______.A.

Ski and SnowThe American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) just released its updated guidelines for children'sThe recommendations reflect what all parents instinctively know: children need less screen time. The corollary, of course, is that they desperately need more free time to ignite their imaginations, develop a sense of wonder and discover their passions and purpose.While we at Melissa & Doug are thrilled the AAP has created stronger guardrails and suggestions to help parents navigate this challenging terrain, this is only the beginning. Our children are overstimulated, over-scheduled and under pressure to perform academically and beyond school. This diminishes their ability to build creative thinking skills essential to self-discovery. Inventiveness occurs when kids have time for curiosity and exploration. With children spending up to eight hours a day on media devices and additional hours engaging in scheduled activities, opportunities for growth are stifled.What we are not sure about is how to get our kids to want the free, screenless time we know will benefit them. It may sound counter-intuitive but today's kids (and, frankly, many of us) need coaching to experience and discover the benefits of free time.What came easily to parents a few decades ago has become a challenge for our generation. It's not that yesterday's parents knew more about child development; they simply had fewer options. Boredom and downtime were an inescapable part of daily life. Today, boredom and downtime are synonymous with, "I'm bad parent and not doing enough to get my kid ahead."Recently, I had an eye-opening revelation while watching my 11-year-old daughter play in a softball tournament. I have six children and have attended dozens of such tournaments. I know the drill — or thought I did. Families settled in for the day with lawn chairs, coolers, sunscreen and siblings in tow. These spectator brothers and sisters would gradually gravitate toward each other. Games of catch and hide-and-seek began; friendships were formed in the span of an inning. At crucial moments, the newfound friends turned their collective attention to the field to cheer on their teams.Bu that was not happening. Though there were at least 15 children by the sidelines, I did not hear any of them. They sat in a silent huddle using their individual tablets. Even with the score tied in the final inning with runners on base, not a single child watched the game or spoke to each other. The situation was surreal and revealing: Kids have more planned activities and passive entertainment at their fingertips than ever before, but less free time to dream, make-believe and focus on what they truly love.I get that making time for "nothing" is difficult in a world where we're constantly worried our kids will fall behind if they don't excel in sports and academics or rack up "likes" on the latest social media app.But I refuse to sit back and watch this loss of childhood. We are taking back childhood. Imagination needs time and space to blossom.91. 91.What do parents instinctively know about children's media use?A. Updated guideline have been released for children's media use.B. Children are spending more and more time on their tablets and smartphones.C. Children are instinctively good at **puter games.D.

Children are overstimulated and greatly pressured to perform academically.B. Children have too many arrangements and are over-scheduled.C. Children have no enough time for curiosity and exploration.D. All of the above.97. 97.What are the things that we are NOT sure for children's growth?A. How to get children to want free, screenless time themselves.B. How to get children to benefit themselves.C. How to make children find more free, screenless time.D.

They do not know how to fill in free time.D. They do not know how to get rid of boredom and downtime.99. 99.In Paragraph 6 and 7, the author talked about his experience with his children watching a softball tournament.

Parents should be worried if their kids do not excel in sports and academics.The ambitious mayor of a big city backs a project to put a garden on a bridge. Acelebrated designer is appointed and seductive images released. It **pared to the High Line in New York — that urban phenomenon envied as much by rival cities as the Eiffel Tower once was. It provokes controversy.This much the Skygarden in Seoul has in common with Garden Bridge in London, but then their stories diverge. Where the London version has foundered, the Korean one will be opened this Saturday by Mayor Park Won-soon, a former activist who built his career on opposing both corruption and the conservative establishment, and supporting human rights.There are significant differences in the conception and execution of the two projects. They vary in cost (about £40m for the Skygarden and £200m-plus for the Garden Bridge) and, where the London project has spent many years not happening, the Seoul one has taken two years to take shape since its Dutch architects, MVRDV, were appointed in 2015.Where the Garden Bridge would have been a cherry on the already rich cake that is the center of London, the Skygarden aims to regenerate and connect places near the main railway station that have been fragmented by roads and rail tracks. The Skygarden, which will be open to all 24 hours a day, re-uses an existing structure —like the High Line —in the form of a 1970 motorway flyover that was no longer deemed safe for its original purpose.It is also part of a bigger set of ideas about taking a big, dense — sometimes ugly — city, one which was created without a great deal of concern for public space and pedestrian movement, and giving it qualities of walkability, neighborliness, human scale and shared enjoyment of its places. To this end, the mayor has encouraged a range of public works and created the post of city architect to help make them happen.The Skygarden is one of the more eye-catching examples of several initiatives promoted by the first holder of this job, Seung H-Sang, and his successor and ally Young Joon Kim.Seoul resembles other cities of East Asia such as Tokyo and Shanghai in its scale and rapid post-war expansion, while major western cities like New York and London also **parable pressures of growth. If Seoul gets its program right, it can set examples for other megacities to learn from. An inaugural Biennale of Architecture and Urbanism will be held this autumn to help get the message across.South Korea's capital is an ancient city, with a beautiful natural backdrop of mountains, which was devastated in the 20th century by Japanese occupation and the Korean War. It was reconstructed on American-inspired lines, with multi-lane highways criss-crossing the city. Economic and population growth —it has about 10 million **pared with 1 million in 1950, although the increase has now levelled off— caused the spaces between to be filled in at levels of density that are nearly twice New York's.It is a business-minded city, its desire for prosperity being sharpened by the traumas and poverty of its recent history, and the need to erect office blocks to serve its economy has usually taken precedence over architectural and urban finesse. The lower levels of buildings tend to be intensely colonized by commercial activity.。

Kerry's 11-day mini-campaign on the theme of national security appears unlikely to produce sensational headlinesor seize the country's attention—which is, on balance, to his credit. At a moment when the crisis in Iraq dominates the national discussion, Mr. Kerry is resisting the temptation to distinguish himself from President Bush with bold but irresponsible proposals to abandon the mission, even though that course is favored by many in his party. Nor has he adopted the near-hysterical rhetoric of former vice presidentA1 Gore, who has taken to describing Iraq as the greatest strategic catastrophe in American history and calling US handling of foreign detainees an "American gulag. "Instead, Mr. Kerry is in the process of setting out what looks like a sober and substantial altemative to Mr. Bush's foreign policy, one that correctly identifies the incumbent's greatest failings while accepting the basic imperatives of the war that was forced on the country on Sept. 11, 2001. In his opening speech on the subject Thursday, Mr. Kerry reiterated one of the central tenets of Mr.Bush's policy: Lawless states and terrorists armed with weapons of mass destruction present "the single greatest threat to our security. " He said that if an attack on the United States with unconventional weapons "appears imminent I will do whatever is necessary to stop it" and "never cede our security to anyone"—formulations that take him close to Mr. Bush's preemption doctrine.Yet Mr. Kerry focused much attention on the president'sforemost weakness, his mismanagement of US alliances. The Bush administration, he charged, "bullied when they should have persuadeD. They have gone it alone when they should have assembled a team. " Not only is the truth of that critique glaringly evident in Iraq and elsewhere, but Mr. Kerry is also right to suggest that repairing and reversing the damage probed will require a new president. Though Mr. Bush has belatedly changed course in responseto his serial failures in Iraq, there is no evidence that he would pursue a more multilateral foreign policy if reelected.Mr. Kerry's promise to "launch and lead a new era of alliances for the post 9/11 world" nevertheless does not add up to a strategyby itself. Tensions between the United States and countries such as France, Germany and South Korea predate George W. Bush and will not disappear if he leaves office; leaders in those nations have theirown ambitions to challenge or contain American power. Strongalliances require a common strategic vision—and the vision offeredso far by Mr. Kerry is relatively narrow. His Thursday speech focused on combating threats and on reducing dependence on Middle East oil; this week he will set out policies to block the spread of nuclear weapons. But he has had little to say about the good that the United States should seek to accomplish in the worlD. In an interview Friday, the candidate stressed that he has set out the "architecture" of his foreign policy and will talk more about goals and values in coming weeks. Thus far he has spoken more about protecting American companies and workers from foreign competition—something that hardly promotes alliances—than about fostering democracy in the Middle East or helping poor nations develop.The emerging Kerry platform suggests that ultimately he would adopt many of the same goals as Mr. Bush. In his latest speech he rightly warned of the terrible consequences of failure in Iraq and,like Mr. Bush, embraced elections and the training of Iraqi security forces as the best way forwarD. His proposal for a U. N. high commissioner represents a slight upgrade on the deference alreadygiven by the White House to U. N. representative Lakhdar Brahimi; his call for a NATO- led military mission already has been aggressively pursued by the Bush administration, with poor results. There are, in fact, few responsible alternatives to the administration's course. Mr. Kerry's argument is that he has a better chance of making it work.It's not a bold offer to voters—but it's probably the fight one.1. The fact that Mr. Kerry did not propose to abandon the Iraq mission might______.A.leave him in a disadvantaged position in the campaignB.result in a draw against President Bush in the campaignC.do him good instead of harm in the campaignD.bring about a general disappointment among the public正确答案:C2. The second paragraph suggests that______.A.Mr. Kerry and Mr. Bush both support the war on terrorismB.Mr. Kerry and Mr. Bush have very different views on nationalsecurity issuesC.Mr. Kerry prefers a more sober and substantial foreign policy thanMr. BushD.Mr. Kerry has nothing new to offer in his opening speech正确答案:A3. Mr. Kerry's attack against the president focused on______.A.the latter's use of force against IraqB.the difficulty in reassembling US alliancesC.the need of a new president in directing the Iraq missionD.the latter's practice of unilateralism正确答案:D4. In the author's view, the "good that the US should seek to accomplish in the world" might be______.A.creating a strong alliance with France, Germany and South Koreabating threats and reducing dependence on Middle East oilC.fostering democracy in the Middle East or helping poor nations developD.protecting American companies and workers from foreign competition正确答案:C5. The author seems to suggest that______.A.only when Mr. Kerry is in power can we judge whether he is right in his policiesB.Mr. Kerry has not made powerful proposals in favor of his election campaign against Mr. BushC.Mr. Kerry always follows Mr. Bush in his foreign policy guidelinesD.Mr. Bush is still leading in the campaign正确答案:BThe term control is highly—and unjustifiably—unpopular. Some of its unpopularity can be traced to educational and philosophical writings that have addressed issues of freedom, self- determination, self-worth, individuality, and other humanistic concerns—concerns often equated with liberal and permissive child-rearing and educational methods. They are the concerns that define the spirit of these times. No teacher wants to be nonliberal and restrictive. And there is little doubt that the deliberate exercise of control is restrictive. Is control therefore unethical?There is, of course, no simple answer, ff there were, there would be little controversy, and behaviorists and humanists wouldhave much less to disagree about.Consider, first, that control is not only inevitable but also necessary. There is no doubt that teachers, by virtue of theirposition and by virtue of their duties, have control. Indeed, it isnot at all unreasonable to insist that the exercise of control is one of the teacher's most important duties. We are not speaking here of a fear-enforced control that might have been characteristic of some of yesterday's schools. Control can be achieved, or at least facilitated, in a variety of gentle ways, some of which can be learned. Parents too control their children (or at least try), often by setting limits for their behavior. Part of the successfulsocialization process requires that children be prevented from engaging in behaviors that might be injurious to themselves or to others. Thus, parents do not permit their children to play with the dinner as it is cooking on the stove, to insert knives intoelectrical outlets, to jump off ladders, or to swim in dangerous waters. Less extreme instances of control involve the teaching of socially appropriate behavior, of values and morals—of "shoulds" and "should nots". It is less by accident than by virtue of parental control that children learn not to deface wall, steal other people's property, or kill the neighbor's god. In short, certain standards of behavior are learned at least partly as a function of parental control. Whether that control involves reinforcement, punishment, models, reasoning, or a combination of these and other strategies, we cannot avoid the fact that control is being exercised.The classroom situation is not really very different. Teachers have often been described as acting [in loco parentis]—in the placeof parents. More precisely, teachers have been urged to act in all ways as might a wise, judicious, and loving parent. And there is, in fact, no great incompatibility between values held in highest esteem by those who describe themselves as humanistically oriented and the techniques of behavior control that have been described by science. Love, empathy, warmth, genuineness, and honesty can go a long way toward ensuring a classroom climate corducive to and learning and development. In spite of these highly desirable qualities, however, discipline problems are not uncommon in classrooms. That teachersshould judiciously administer rewards and punishment in an effort to maintain an effective educational environment does not mean that they care less for their students; indeed, in might well indicate that they care more.6. The passage indicates that the current educational spirit is characterized by______.A.unjustified controlB.unpopularityC.liberal and permissive educational methodsD.deliberate exercise of restrictions正确答案:C7. Which of the following might behaviorists agree with?A.Students should not be granted too much freedom.cational environments should ensure that students' individuality is fully promoteD.C.Teachers are not to control, but to practice their duties.D.Parents are not humanistic enough towards their children's education.正确答案:A8. Instances of parental control provided in the passage are aimed at______.A.justifying the educational use of controlrming educationalists of what is the fight thing to do in the education of childrenC.persuading the public of the importance of ethics educationD.assessing whether parents or teachers are more important in the education of children正确答案:A9. It is indicated in the passage that______.A.teachers have not been acting in the same ways as loving parentsB.scientific use of control is of no big contradiction to humanistically oriented approaches in children's educationC.discipline problems cannot be solved in humanistic waysD.punishment administered by the teacher is indicative of care for the children正确答案:B10. Which of the following can be an appropriate title for the passage?A.Control or Liberty?B.Teacher's Control or Parent's Restriction?C.The Ethics of ControlD.How to Use Control Scientifically?正确答案:CDavis, California, like many other American cities, has been threatened by unchecked growth, swarming automobiles, and steeply rising energy costs. But unlike towns and cities which leave energy policy to the federal government or energy corporations, the citizens of Davis have acted on their own.After lengthy debate, Davis' City Council moved to curb growth. It turned against the automobile and embraced the bicycle as a means of transport. It sponsored an inquiry into energy uses and endorsed a series of measures aimed at reducing energy consumption by as much as one half. It cut back the use of petroleum-derived pesticides on the thousands of trees and shrubs that shade the city's streets, adopting instead a policy of biological control for insects. The city's own cars and trucks have been transformed into a fleet of compact vehicles. When a Davis employee has to get around town, he borrows a bike from the city rack. Davis even passed a law formally and solemnly sanctioning the clothesline.The citizens of Davis have been involved in progressive city planning and energy conservation since 1968, when they persuaded the City Council to facilitate bicycle transportation by developing a system of bikeways. The City's general plan for development, drawn up in 1972, was based on questionnaires distributed to residents. When a survey of residents showed that automobiles represented 50 percent of energy consumption and space heating and cooling accounted for 25 percent, transportation and building construction became important focal points in the Davis plan.Armed with survey information revealing that a building's east-west orientation on the lot, as well as its insulation, window area, roof and wall colors, overhang shading, and other factors greatlyinfluenced space heating and cooling needs, the City Council drew up a building construction code which greatly reduced the cost of winter heating and eliminates the need for air conditioning even on Davis' hottest (114°) day. To demonstrate to local builders and developers methods for complying with the new code, Davis built two model solar homes, a single-family dwelling which takes advantage of natural southern exposure sunlight and a duplex adaptable to difficult siting situationswhere direct sunlight is blocked.Many of Davis'measures simply facilitate natural solar heating or sun-shading. Where most communities require that fences be built close to houses, Davis realized that practice meant blocking winter sunlight. New fences in Davis must be placed closer to the street, giving residents the benefit of natural solar heat in winter. Reducing required street widths provides more shade and saves asphalt to boot.Davis' other energy conserving moves run the gamut—from a city ordinance encouraging cottage industry (to cut down on commuting and the need for new office building construction) to planting evergreens on city streets to reduce leaf pickup in the fall, from a ban on non-solar swimming pool heaters to a recycling center that supportsitself by selling $3,000 worth of recyclables a month.11. It can be inferred from the passage that Davis' City Council felt that______.A.bicycles are healthful because they promote physical fitnessB.control of automobile traffic is an essential part of energy managementC.Davis citizens are always ready to do the most modem, up-to-date thingD.survey results should always determine legislative actions正确答案:B12. Why did Davis build model solar homes instead of just one?A.To show what they could do when they put their minds to it.B.To show that even the hottest days could be mastered without air conditioning.C.To demonstrate that even multiple dwelling in difficult locations could be solar powered.D.To indicate that other cities were inadequate to the job.正确答案:C13. The purpose of this article is probably to______.A.congratulate Davis on their fine workB.help Davis spread their messageC.chide the federal government for not doing enough to help cities like DavisD.hold up Davis as an example to other cities正确答案:D14. It appears that Davis is______.A.a "good old American town"mitted to social justiceC.a medium-to-small-size cityD.blessed by a strong radical element in the population正确答案:CThe income-tax deadline approaches and some taxpayers' thoughts turn to it. Test time approaches and some students' thoughts turn to it. Temptation appears and some spouses consider it. Nowadays, cheating is on the rise. "You want something you can't get by behaving within the rules, and you want it badly enough, you'll do it regardless of any guilt or regret, and you're willing to run the risk of being caught. " That's how Ladd Wheeler, psychology professor at the University of Rochester in New York, defines cheating.Cheating represents the triumph of the "Brazen Rule" over the "Golden Rule", says Terry Pinkard, philosophy professor at Georgetown University in Washington D.C. "The Golden Rule says, Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.'The Brazen Rule says, Do unto others as they would do unto you if they were in your place. ' " Many experts believe cheating is on the rise. "We're seeing more of the kind of person who regards the world as a series of things to be manipulated. Whether to cheat depends on whether it's in theperson's interest. " He does, however, see less cheating among the youngest students.Richard Dienslbier, psychology professor at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln, believes that society's attitudes account for much of the rise in cheating. "Twenty years ago, if a person cheated in college, society said:'That is extremely serious; you will bedropped for a semester if not kicked out permanently, ' " he says. "Nowadays, at the University of Nebraska, for example, it is thestated policy of the College of Arts and Sciences that if a student cheats on an exam, the student must receive an'F' on what he cheated on. That's nothing. If you're going to fail anyway, why not cheat?"Cheating is unethical, Pinkard says, whether it's massive fraud or failure to tell a store cashier you were undercharged. "You're treating other people merely as a means for your own ends. You'reusing people in ways they would not consent to. The cheater says, 'Let everybody else bear the burden, and I'll reap the benefits. '"Cheaters usually try to justify their actions, says Rohert Hogan, chairman of the psychology department at the University of Tulsa in Oklahoma. "They never think it's their fault. " Cheaters make justifications because they want to feel good about themselves, adds Wheeler. "They don't want to label themselves as a cheater. Also, they may be anticipating the possibility of getting caught, so they work on their excuse ahead of time. " The most common justifications, psychologists say, include:"I had to do it. ""The test was unfair. ""Everybody does it, and I have to cheat to get what'srightfully mine. ""The government wastes the money anyway. ""My wife (or husband) doesn't understand me, and we've grown apart. "Cheating is most likely in situation where the stakes are high and the chances of getting caught are low, says social psychologist Lynn Kahle of the University of Oregon in Eugene. In his study, a group of freshmen were allowed to grade their own tests, while secret, pressure sensitive paper indicated who changed answers. To raise the pressure, students were given an extremely high scores as the "average" for the test and told that those who failed would go before an inquiring board of psychologists. About 16 percent of the male students changed answers; among the females, about 30 percent cheated.Everybody cheats, a little, some psychologists say, whileothers insist that most people are basically honest and some wouldn't cheat under any circumstances.。
