问题 1得10 分,满分10 分Passage 1By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others----they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Y et, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us----an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星) , who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That's hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefin able charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death----such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana.

People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously(有营养)and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so-called " plastic " fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients(成分)in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxed dinner without phone or TV interruptions.While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem for Americans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction(依赖). They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.The current wave of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations, newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet, of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to "diet addiction".1、These days people are dieting more because they have become more health conscious. [1]A:T B:F2、They are taking less time for each meal now. [2]A:T B:F3、" They look like skeletons" in the third paragraph most probably means they are too thin.

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid, or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "Y ou are such a smart child."1、The word "intelligent" in the 1st paragraph probably mean bright. [1]A:T B:F2、According to the context we can guess that a genius is a normal person while an idiot is a funny person. [2]A:T B:F3、A person born with a good brain and putting it into active use is more likely to become a genius. [3]A:T B:F4、It is better for parents to praise and encourage their children more often.

BA:T B:F问题 4得10 分,满分10 分Passage 4Global WarmingGlobal warming may or may not be the great environmental crisis of the 21st century, but —regardless of whether it is or isn‟t —we won‟t do much about it. We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn- sounding commitments to avoid it. But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.A1 Gore calls global warmin g an “inconvenient truth”, as if merely recognizing it could put us on a path to a solution. But the real truth is that we don‟t know enough to relieve global warming, and — without major technological breakthroughs —we can‟t do much about it. From 2003 t o 2050, the world‟s population is predicted to grow from 6.4 billion to 9.1 billion, a 42% increase. If energy use per person and technology remain the same, total energy use and greenhouse gas emissions (mainly, CO2) will be 42% higher in 2050.But that‟s too low, because societies that grow richer use more energy. We need economic growth unless we leave the world‟s poor to their present poverty and freeze everyone else‟s living standards.

We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn- sounding commitments to avoid it. But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.A1 Gore calls global warming an “inconvenient truth”, as if merely recognizing it could put us on a path to a solution. But the real truth is that we don‟t know enough to relieve global warming, and — without major technological breakthroughs —we can‟t do much about it.From 2003 to 2050, the world‟s population is predicted to grow from 6.4 billion to 9.1 billion, a 42% increase. If energy use per person and technology remain the same, total energy use and greenhouse gas emissions (mainly, CO2) will be 42% higher in 2050.But that‟s too low, because societies that grow richer use more energy. We need economic growth unless we leave the world‟s p oor to their present poverty and freeze everyone else‟s living standards. With modest growth, energy use and greenhouse emissions will more than double by 2050.No government will adopt strict restrictions on economic growth and personal freedom (limits on electricity usage, driving and travel) that might cut back global warming. Still, politicians want to show they‟re “doing something” Consider the Kyoto Protocol. It allowed countries that joined to punish those that didn‟t. But it hasn‟t reduced CO2 emiss ions (up about 25% since 1990), and many signatories didn‟t adopt tough enough policies to hit their 2008-2012 targets.The practical conclusion is that if global warming is a potential disaster, the only solution is new technology. Only an aggressive research and development program might find ways of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it.The trouble with the global warming debate is that it has become a moral problem when it‟s really an engineering one. The inconvenient truth is that if we don‟t solvethe engineering problem, we‟re helpless.1.What is said about global warming in the first paragraph?

Y ou have to sit down and write a thank-you note. The words "Thank you" are very important. We have to use them on so many occasions. We say them when someone gives us a drink, helps us to pick up things, hands us a letter, lends us a book or gives us a gift.Another important word is "please". Many people forget to use it. It is rude to ask someone to do something without saying "please". We have to use it when we ask for something, too. It may be a book or a pencil, more rice or more sauce, help or advice. It may be in the classroom, at home, at the bus-stop or over the counter. We have to use "please" tomake our request pleasant.We have to learn to say "sorry" too. When we have hurt someone's feeling, we will have to go up and say we are sorry. When we have told a lie and feel sorry, we will have to use the same word. When we have forgotten something or broken a promise, we will have to explain with that word, too. "Sorry" is a healing word. We can make people forget wrongs by using it sincerely.These three words are simple but important. They are pleasing words to use in any language.1.

James Watt had made theworld's first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute.

His engine could lift a 33-pound weight 100 feet in one minute.Because his engine did ten times as much work as the horse, Watt called it a ten horsepower engine.1、The passage says that Watt made the first widely used steam engine.

"Does he smoke?""No, he's never touched a cigarette," the woman replied."That's good," the man continued. "I don't smoke either. Tobacco is very bad to one's health. And does your son drink wine?""Oh, no," the woman answered at once. "He's never drunk a drop of it.""Then I congratulate you, ma'am," the man said. "And does he ever come home late at night?""No, never," his neighbor answered. "He goes to bed immediately after dinner every night.""Well," the man said, "he's a wise young man.

2014年6月大学英语四级考试真题及详解(第二套)【圣才出品】
2014年6月大学英语四级考试真题及详解(第二套)Part I Writing(30minutes)Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to write a short essay on the following question.You should write at least120words but no more than180words.Suppose a foreign friend of yours is coming to visit your campus,what is the most interesting place you would like to take him/her to see and why?【审题构思】该题目要求考生写一篇介绍性的短文,向远道而来的外国朋友介绍自己校园里最有趣的地方并给出原因。
考生可结合自身的实际情况,提出你最想带外国朋友去游览的校园景点。
并陈述该景点值得游览的原因。
可列举两三个原因,并加以说明。
最后简明扼要地总结全文,注意表达要有一定变化,避免重复。
【参考范文】The Must-visit Place in My Campus(1)If I were to take my foreign friend around my campus,I would give priority to Fengming Lake,an interesting and magnificent place.(2)Firstly,just as the name implies,Fengming Lake is a very vast lake,which is designed artistically with the meaning and shape of“The Chinese Knot”.So people can taste the unique charm of Chinese culture.(3)However,when it comes to cultural connotation,no one can exclude statues of Confucius,Mengzi,and other renowned educators.Having been standing there for a hundred years,these statues have been vital symbols of my university.(4)In additional to its cultural landscape,its charming natural landscape is a must to see.The whole lake is surrounded by(5)evergreen trees.And at this time when a gentle breeze blows,colorful flowers dance and sweet scent drifts in the air.Such breath-taking scene will(6)put visitors into a kind of trance.(7)In brief,Fengming Lake offers visitors both great relaxation and sightseeing with its unique natural scenery and rare human sights.I’m confident that my foreign friend will enjoy it a lot.【行文点评】(1)第一段开门见山,点明了要介绍的校园景点。

Slowly, as she worked on the long list, she began tofeel uncertain. She began to question some of her decisions. Had she used the best technique in that case? Maybe, in this case, she should have run one more test before operating? On the other hand, maybe she should have … Would the doctors on the selection committee understand that, as the only trained surgeon in the area, she usually could not get advice from others and therefore, had to rely completely on her own judgment? For the first time, Dr. Ginoux felt lonely and isolated.The longer Dr. Ginoux worked on the application forms, the more depressed she became. As hope faded, she wondered if a “country doctor” had a realistic chance of being accepted by the American College of Surgeons.(1).Dr. Ginoux was working in _______.A. a large cityB. the American College of SurgeonsC. an area far from any big cityD. a selective organization(2).The application forms must include ___.A. the decision procedureB. a record of all the operations.C. the best techniqueD. a list of advice and judgments(3).It was most probable that Dr. Ginoux was ____A. a member in that organizationB. a well-trained surgeonC. a graduate from the American College of SurgeonsD. a distinguished surgeon in America(4).When she was filling the application froms, Dr. Ginoux began to be____.A. realisticB. distinguishedC. perplexedD. decisive(5).When filling the forms, Dr. Ginoux felt depressed because _____.A. she didn’t perform enough operationsB. some operations were unsuccessfulC. she didn’t get advice from the selection committeeD. she was doubtful about her operations2.An important new industry, oil refining, grew after the Civil War. Crude oil, or petroleum – a dark, thick ooze from the earth – had been known for hundreds of years. But little use had ever been madeof it. In the 1850’s Samuel M. Kier, a manufacturer in the western Pennsylvania, began collecting the oil from local seepages andrefining it into kerosene, Refining, like smelting, is a process of removing impurities from a raw material.Kerosene was used to light lamps. It was a cheap substitute for whale oil, which was becoming harder to get. Soon there was a large demand for kerosene. People began to search for new supplies of petroleum.The first oil well was drilled by E. L. Drake, a retired railroad conductor. In 1859 he began drilling in Titusville, Pennsylvania. The whole venture seemed so impractical and foolish that onlookers called it “Drake’s Folly”. But when he had drilled down about 70 feet (21 meters), Drake struck oil. His well began to yield 20 barrels ofcrude oil a day.News of Drake’s success brought oil prospectors to the scene. By the early 1860’s these wildcatters were drilling for “black gold” all over western Pennsylvania. The boom rivaled the California gold rush of 1848 in its excitement and Wild West atmosphere. And it brought far more wealth to the prospectors than any gold rush.Crude oil could be refined into many products. For some years kerosene continued to be the principal one. It was sold in grocery stores and door-to-door. In the 1880’s refiners learned how to make other petroleum products such as waxes and lubricating oils. Petroleum was not then used to make gasoline or heating oil.(1).Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. Oil Refining: A Historical PerspectiveB. The California Gold Rush: Get Rich QuicklyC. Private Property: Trespassers Will Be ProsecutedD. Kerosene Lamps: Trespassers Will Be Prosecuted(2).It can be inferred from the passage that Kerosene was preferable to whale oil because whale oil was too ________.A. expensiveB. thickC. hotD.polluted(3).Why does the author mention the California gold rush?A. to explain the need for an increased supply of goldB. toindicate the extent of United States mineral wealth C. to describethe mood when oil was first discovered D. to argue that gold was more valuable than oil(4).The word “one” in the second sentence of the last paragraph could best be replaced by which of the following words?A. oilB. doorC. storeD. product(5).The author mentions all of the following as possible products of crude oil EXCEPTA.waxB. gasolineC.

As an Alaskan fisherman. Timothy June, 54, used to think that he was safe from industrial pollutants(污染物)at his home in Haines-atown with a population of 2,400 people and 4,000 eagles, with 8 million acres of protected wild land nearby. But in early 2007, June agreed to take part in a 36 of 35 Americans from seven states. It was a biomonitoring project, in which people’s blood and urine(尿)were tested for 37 of chemicals-in this case, three potentially dangerous classes of compounds found in common household 38 like face cream, tin cans, and shower curtains. The results- 39 in November in a report called“Is It in Us?”by an environmental group-were rather worrying. Every one of the participants, 40 from an Illinois state senator to a Massachusetts minister, tested positive for all three classes of pollutants. And while the 41 presence of these chemicals does not 42 indicate a health risk, the fact that typical Americans carry these chemicals at all 43 June and his fellow participants. Clearly, there are chemicals in our bodies that don’t 44 there. Ongoing study conducted by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found 148 chemicals in Americans of all ages.

People in their 30s and 40s can't afford to buy homes or have children. Retirees are earning near-zero interest on their savings. [B] In the current listless (缺乏活力的) economy, every generation has a claim to having been most injured. But the Labor Department's latest jobs snapshot and other recent data reports present a strong case for crowning baby boomers (二战后生育高峰期出生的人) as the greatest victims of the recession and its dreadful consequences. [C] These Americans in their 50s and early 60s —those near retirement age who do not yet have access to Medicare and Social Security — have lost the most earnings power of any age group, with their household incomes 10 percent below what they made when the recovery began three years ago, according to Sentier Research, a data analysis company. Their retirement savings and home values fell sharply at the worst possible time: just before they needed to cash out. They are supporting both aged parents and unemployed young-adult children, earning them the unlucky nickname "Generation Squeeze." [D] New research suggests that they may die sooner, because their health, income security and mental well-being were battered (重创) by recession at a crucial time in their lives. A recent study by economists at Wellesley College found that people who lost their jobs in the few years before becoming qualified for Social Security lost up to three years from their life expectancy (预期寿命), largely because they no longer had access to affordable health care. [E] Unemployment rates for Americans nearing retirement are far lower than those for young people, who are recently out of school, with fewer skills and a shorter workhistory. But once out of a job, older workers have a much harder time finding another one. Over the last year, the average duration of unemployment for older people was 53 weeks, compared with 19 weeks for teenagers, according to the Labor Department's jobs report released on Friday. [F] The lengthy process is partly because older workers are more likely to have been laid off from industries that are downsizing, like manufacturing. Compared with the rest of the population, older people are also more likely to own their own homes and be less mobile than renters, who can move to new job markets. [G] Older workers are more likely to have a disability of some sort, perhaps limiting the range of jobs that offer realistic choices. They may also be less inclined, at least initially, to take jobs that pay far less than their old positions. [H] Displaced boomers also believe they are victims of age discrimination, because employers can easily find a young, energetic worker who will accept lower pay and who can potentially stick around for decades rather than a few years. [I] In a survey by the center of older workers who were laid off during the recession, just one in six had found another job, and half of that group had accepted pay cuts. Fourteen percent of the re-employed said the pay in their new job was less than half what they earned in their previous job. "I just say to myself: 'Why me? What have I done to deserve this?' " said John Agati, 56, of Norwalk, Conn., whose last full-time job, as a merchandise buyer and product developer, ended four years ago when his employer went out of business. That position paid $90,000, and his rsum lists stints at companies like American Express, Disney and USA Networks. Since being laid off, though, he has worked a series of part-time, low-wage, temporary positions, including selling shoes at Lord & Taylor and making sales calls for a limo company. [J] The last few years have taken a toll not only on his family's finances, but also on his feelings of self-worth. "You just get sad," Mr. Agati said. "I see people getting up in the morning, going out to their careers and going home. I just wish I was doing that. Some people don't like their jobs, or they have problems with their jobs, but at least they're working. I just wish I was in their shoes." He said he cannot afford to go back to school, as many younger people without jobs have done. Even if he could afford it, economists say it is unclear whether older workers like him benefit much from more education. [K] "It just doesn't make sense to offer retraining for people 55 and older," said Daniel Hamermesh, an economics professor at the University of Texas in Austin. "Discrimination by age, long-term unemployment, the fact that they're now at the end of the hiring queue, the lack of time horizon just does not make it sensible to invest in them." [L] Many displaced older workers are taking this message to heart and leaving the labor force entirely. The share of older people applying for Social Security early spiked during the recession as people sought whatever income they could find. The penalty they will pay is permanent, as retirees who take benefits at age 62 will receive 30 percent less in each month's check for the rest of their lives than they would if they had waited until full retirement age (66 for those born after 1942).(分数:71.00)(1).Greater mobility puts younger people at an advantage in seeking new jobs.

But what about local bike shops? Is Citi Bike rolling up riders at their expense? At Gotham Bikes in Tribeca, a manager who gave his name as “Ben W.”said the shop has seen an increase in its overall sales due to the bike-share program. “It’s getting more people on the road, more people learning about the sport and getting involved,” he said. An employee at Danny’s Cycles in Gramercy said Citi Bike is a good option for people to ease into biking in a city famed for its vehicular congestion and aggressive drivers. “They can try out a bike without committing to buying one,” James Ryan said. “It makes a morecomfortable biki ng environment in the city because there are a lot more bikes, too.” Business at Danny’s Cycles has increased as well since the advent of bike-share. “A lot of people come in for bike gear, and we’ve sold a lot of helmets,” he noted. Rentals are not a big part of the business at either Gotham Bikesor Danny’s Cycles. But for Frank’s Bike Shop, a small business that has been at its current Lower East Side location on Grand St. since1976, the bike-share program has been bad news. Owner Frank Arroyo said that his rental business has decreased by 90 percent since the Citi Bikes were rolled out last month. Arroyo’s main rental customers are European tourists, a demographic that has since been drawn away by Citi Bikes. Initially, a bike-share station was site d a few doors away from Frank’s Bike Shop on the corner of Grand and Henry Sts. But a petition to relocate the bike station gathered more than 1,000 signatures. The Citi Bike dock was eventually removed —but only temporarily, according to the Citi Bike Twitter account, for utility construction in the street. “I was grateful, and it was quite an honor to see how many people responded on my behalf,” Arroyo said of the petition effort. “It was really nice to see that people care. But they have flooded the place with them,” he said of the Department of Transportation, which installs the bike racks. Removing one station does little since the area is overloaded with Citi Bike stations, said Arroyo. “If you put it in front of a hotel, customers are going to walk of the hotel and use it,” he said. However, Ben said the bike-share is good for bike sales at his shop. “People have used the bike-share and realized how great it is to bike in the city, then decide that they want something nicer for themselves,” he noted. Christian Farrell of Waterfront Bicycle Shop, on West St. just north of Christopher St., said initially he was concerned about bike-share, though, he admitted, “I was happy to see people on bikes.” Consisting of equal parts tourists and locals, his customers get a better rental deal at his shop because, despite charging only $10for a daily rental, the bike-share program requires cyclists tocheck their bikes in at a bike station every half hour. His store, on the other hand, charges $10 for the first hour, $5 for the second, and $2.50 per hour after that. “Six hours with Waterfront Bicycle Shop will costa customer $25,” he said. “With Citi Bike, a six-hour rental will cost $126 [if the rider doesn’t re-dock his or her bike at a station every half hour]. Our rentals always include a helmet, a basket and a lock.” Several dozen rental bikes were lined up on Weehawken St. last Sunday behind the store. Benny, who was watching over them, said another advantage over the Citi Bikes is tha t Waterfront’s bikes are all in good working order. Farrell’s early concerns were echoed by Andrew Crooks, owner of NYCVelo, at 64 Second Ave. “It seemed like a great idea, but one that would be difficult to implement,” Crooks said of Citi Bike. He said he worried about inexperienced riders’ lack of awareness of biking rules and backlash from non-cyclists. However, he said, it’s still too earlyto tell if his business has been impacted. The actual Citi Bikes themselves have been criticized as “heavy,”“clunky,” even “ugly.” In comparison, Crooks said NYC Velo has bikes that are “lighter, faster and tend to be more comfortable.” Farrell of Waterfront also said his bikes are of “better quality” than the bike-share two-wheelers. While it’s possible bike-share will cause a drop in business in the long run, Crooks allowed that the idea, as a whole, is good for the city. (分数:71.00)(1).What is the author's chief concern about the increasing use of Citi Bikes in New York? (分数:14.20)A.How non-cyclists will respond to it.B.Whether local bike shops will suffer. √C.Whether local bike businesses will oppose it.D.How the safety of bike riders can be ensured.解析:关于纽约的Citi Bikes项目的持续实施,作者主要关心的是什么? 文章第一段开头讲参与Citi Bikes项目的骑行者越来越多,给纽约市民带来的影响,即他们感到越来越习惯。
中山大学下半《大学英语》次作业分
2014年下半年《大学英语四》第三次作业问题1得10 分,满分10 分Passage 1By definition, heroes and heroines are men and women distinguished by uncommon courage, achievements, and self-sacrifice made most for the benefits of others----they are people against whom we measure others. They are men and women recognized for shaping our nation's consciousness and development as well as the lives of those who admire them. Yet, some people say that ours is an age where true heroes and heroines are hard to come by, where the very idea of heroism is something beyond us----an artifact of the past. Some maintain, that because the Cold War is over and because America is at peace, our age is essentially an unheroic one. Furthermore, the overall crime rate is down, poverty has been eased by a strong and growing economy, and advances continue to be made in medical science.Cultural icons are hard to define, but we know them when we see them. They are people who manage to go beyond celebrity (明星) , who are legendary, who somehow manage to become mythic. But what makes some figures icons and others mere celebrities? That's hard to answer. In part, their lives have the quality of a story to tell. For instance, the beautiful young Diana Spencer who at 19 married a prince, renounced marriage and the throne, and died at the moment she found true love. Good looks certainly help. So does a special indefinable charm, with the help of the media. But nothing confirms an icon more than a tragic death----such as Martin Luther King, Jr., John F. Kennedy, and Princess Diana. (258 words)1. The passage mainly deals with [1] .A. life and deathB. heroes and heroinesC. heroes and iconsD. icons and celebrities2.

People have become more health conscious and try to take better care of their bodies by eating more nutritiously(有营养)and exercising more regularly to lose any unnecessary fat that they may have.Not only are people being more careful about what they eat, they are also concerned with how they eat and how their meals are prepared. People are taking more time for each meal. Many avoid the so-called " plastic " fast-food hamburgers and choose to eat a salad or a sandwich of more healthful ingredients(成分)in a quiet restaurant with a more leisurely atmosphere. At home, they also try to take enough time to eat a relaxed dinner without phone or TV interruptions.While dieting may be viewed as beneficial, it has also become a serious problem forAmericans, particularly for young women. Dieting for them has actually become a psychological addiction(依赖). They eat so little that they can lose as much as fifty percent of their total body weight, and although they look like skeletons, they still insist that they are fat.The current wave of exercising, dieting and the problems produced have caused many organizations to begin educating the public. Many schools, hospitals, health organizations, newspapers and magazines, for example, are offering classes, printing booklet articles, etc. to inform the public of the way to exercise and diet, of the dangers of dieting too rapidly, and of the places people can go for medical help if they find themselves on the road to "diet addiction".1、These days people are dieting more because they have become more health conscious.

What makes one person a genius, like the brilliant Albert Einstein, and another person a fool? Are people born intelligent or stupid,or is intelligence the result of where and how you live? These are very old questions and the answers to them are still not clear.We know, however, that just being born with a good mind is not enough. In some ways, the mind is like a leg or an arm muscle. It needs exercise. Mental exercise is particularly important for young children. Many child psychologists (心理学家) think that parents should play with their children more often and give them problems to think about. The children are then more likely to grow up bright and intelligent. If, on the other hand, children are left alone a great deal with nothing to do, they are more likely to become dull and unintelligent.Parents should also be careful with what they say to young children. According to some psychologists, if parents are always telling a child that he or she is a fool or an idiot, then the child is more likely to keep doing silly and foolish things. So it is probably better for parents to say very positive things to their children, such as "That was a very clever thing you did." or "You are such a smart child."1、The word "intelligent" in the 1st paragraph probably mean bright. [1]A:T B:F2、According to the context we can guess that a genius is a normal person while an idiot is a funny person. [2]A:T B:F3、A person born with a good brain and putting it into active use is more likely to become a genius. [3]A:T B:F4、It is better for parents to praise and encourage their children more often.

B A:T B:F问题 4得10 分,满分10 分Passage 4Global WarmingGlobal warming may or may not be the great environmental crisis of the 21st century, but —rega rdless of whether it is or isn’t —we won’t do much about it. We will argue over it and may even, as a nation, make some fairly solemn- sounding commitments to avoid it. But the more dramatic and meaningful these commitments seem, the less likely they are to be observed.A1 Gore calls global warming an “inconvenient truth”, as if merely recognizing it could put us on a path to a solution. But the real truth is that we don’t know enough to relieve global warming, and — without major technological breakthroughs —we can’t do much about it. From 2003 to 2050, the world’s population is predicted to grow from 6.4 billion to 9.1 billion, a 42% increase. If energy use per person and technology remain the same, total energy use and greenhouse gas emissions (mainly, CO2) will be 42% higher in 2050.But that’s too low, because societies that grow richer use more energy. We need economic growth unless we leave the world’s poor to their present poverty and freeze everyone else’s living standards. With modest growth, energy use and greenhouse emissions will more than double by 2050.No government will adopt strict restrictions on economic growth and personal freedom (limits on electricity usage, driving and travel) that might cut back global warming. Still, politicians want to show they’re “doing something” Consider the Kyoto Protocol. It allowed countries that joined to punish those that didn’t. But it hasn’t reduced CO2 emissions (up about 25% since 1990), and many signatories didn’t adopt tough enough policies to hit thei r 2008-2012 targets.The practical conclusion is that if global warming is a potential disaster, the only solution is new technology. Only an aggressive research and development program might find ways of breaking our dependence on fossil fuels or dealing with it.The trouble with the global warming debate is that it has become a moral problem when it’s really an engineering one. The inconvenient truth is that if we don’t solve the engineeringproblem, we’re helpless.1.What is said about global warming in the first paragraph? [1]A.It may not prove an environmental crisis at all.B.It is an issue requiring worldwide commitments.C.Serious steps have been taken to avoid or stop it.D.Very little will be done to bring it under control.2.A ccording to the author’s understanding, what is Al Gore’s view on global warming? [2]A.It is a reality both people and politicians are unaware of.B.It is a phenomenon that causes us many inconveniences.C.It is a problem that can be solved once it is recognized.D.It is an area we actually have little knowledge about.3.Greenhouse emissions will more than double by 2050 because of ___[3]____. A.economic growthB.wasteful use of energyC.the widening gap between the rich and poorD.the rapid advances of science and technology4.The author believes that, since the signing of the Kyoto Protocol, __[4]_____. A.politicians have started to do something to better the situationB.few nations have adopted real tough measures to limit energy useC.reductions in energy consumption have greatly cut back global warming D.international cooperation has contributed to solving environmental problems5.What is the message the author intends to convey?

You have to sit down and write a thank-you note. The words "Thank you" are very important. We have to use them on so many occasions. We say them when someone gives us a drink, helps us to pick up things, hands us a letter, lends us a book or gives us a gift.Another important word is "please". Many people forget to use it. It is rude to ask someone to do something without saying "please". We have to use it when we ask for something, too. It may be a book or a pencil, more rice or more sauce, help or advice. It may be in the classroom, at home, at the bus-stop or over the counter. We have to use "please" to make our request pleasant.We have to learn to say "sorry" too.

James Watt had made the world's first widely used steam engine. He had no way of telling people exactly how powerful it was, for at that time there were no units for measuring power.Watt decided to find out how much work one strong horse could do in one minute.

We hope that the internet can be better and more colorful in the future.2、As the drawing presents, there is a man walking across the street absorbedly focusing on his cell phone without noticing the surroundings. This sort of phenomenon is not uncommon and rare in some metropolis, especially among the youngsters.What the picture illustrates is the prevailing situation that has long existed in today's China. That is the mobile phoneobsession. With the advent of information age, people are becoming increasingly fascinated on the electronic products, especially the cell phones. Not surprisingly, you could easily notice that most of us are obsessed in sending messages, playing online games with their mobile phones. It cannot be denied that this phenomenon may negatively impact the relationship among people, and therefore they will become estranged and isolated.Personally, in view of the overuse of mobile phones, I hold that we individuals should raise the necessary awareness that good relationship are reinforced by sincere and face-to-face communication.。

isderived.You may choose a paragraph more than once.Each paragraphis marked with a letter.Answer the questions by marking thecorresponding letter on Answer Sheet2.I Cry,Therefore I Am[A]In2008,at a German zoo,a gorilla(大猩猩)named Gana gave birth to a maleinfant,who died after three months.Photographs of Gana,looking stricken and inconsolable(伤心欲绝的),attracted crowds to the zoo.Sad as the scene was, the humans,not Gana,were the only ones crying.The notion that animals can weep has no scientific basis.Years of observations by biologists Dian Fossey, who observed gorillas,and Jane Goodall,who worked with chimpanzees(黑猩猩),could not prove that animals cry tears from emotion.[B]It’s true that many animals shed tears,especially in response to pain.Tears protectthe eye by keeping it moist.But crying as an expression of feeling is unique to humans and has played an essential role in human evolution and the development of human cultures.[C]Within two days an infant can imitate sad and happy faces.If an infant does notcry out,it is unlikely to get the attention it needs to survive.Around34months, the relationship between the human infant and its environment takes on a more organized communicative role,and tearful crying begins to serve interpersonal purposes:the search for comfort and pacification(抚慰).As we get older,crying becomes a tool of social interaction:grief and joy,shame and pride,fear and manipulation.[D]Tears are as universal as laughter,and grief is more complex than joy.Butalthough we all cry,we do so in different ways.Women cry more frequently and intensely than men,especially when exposed to emotional events.Like crying, depression is,around the world,more commonly seen in women than in men.One explanation might be that women,who despite decades of social advances still suffer from economic inequality,discrimination(歧视)and even violence, might have more to cry about.Men not only cry for shorter periods than women, but they also are less inclined to explain their tears,usually shed them more quietly,and tend more frequently to apologize when they cry openly.Men,like women,report crying at the death of a loved one and in response to a moving religions experience.They are more likely than women to cry when their core identities—as providers and protectors,as fathers and fighters—are questioned.[E]People who score on personality tests as more sympathetic cry more than thosewho are more rigid or have more self-control.Frequency of crying varies widely: some shed tears at any novel or movie,others only a handful of times in their lives.Crying in response to stress and conflict in the home,or after emotional trauma (创伤),lasts much longer than tears induced by everyday sadness—which in turn last longer than tears of delight and joy.[F]Sadness is our primary association with crying,but the fact is that people reportfeeling happier after crying.Surveys estimate that85%of women and73%of men report feeling better after shedding tears.Surprisingly,crying is morecommonly associated with minor forms of depression than with major depression involving suicidal thoughts.[G]People widely report that crying relieves tension,restores emotional balance andprovides“catharsis”,a washing out of bad feelings.The term“catharsis”has religious implications of removing evil and sin;it’s no surprise that religious ceremonies are,around the world,one of the main settings for the release of tears.[H]Crying is a nearly universal sign of grief,though some mourners report that,despite genuine sorrow,they cannot shed tears—sometimes even for years after their loved one has gone.Unlike today,when the privacy of grief is more respected,the public or ceremonial shedding of tears,at the graveside of a spouse or the funeral of a king or queen,was once considered socially or even politically essential.[I]Crying has also served other social purposes.Rousseau wrote in his Confessionsthat while he considered tears the most powerful expression of love,he also just liked to cry over nothing.[J]The association of tears with art has ancient roots.The classic Greek tragedies of the fifth century B.C.were primarily celebrations of gods.Tragedies,like poetry and music,were staged religions events.Even then it was recognized that crying in response to drama brought pleasure.[K]I have argued that there are neurobiological(神经生物方面的)associations linking the arts and mood disorders.When I lecture on crying,I ask my audience to let me know,by a show of hands,which art forms most move them to tears.About80%say music,followed closely by novels(74%),but then the figures fall sharply,to43%,for poetry,and10-22%for paintings,sculpture and architecture.[L]The physical act of crying is mainly one of breathing in air,which is why we choke up when we weep.This suggests to language scientists that emotional crying evolved before language,perhaps explaining why tears communicate states of mind and feelings that are often so difficult to express in words.Of course,from an evolutionary perspective,recognition of emotion(usually through facial gesture)was essential for survival.[M]The earliest humans arrived several million years ago,but only150,000to 200,000years ago,did cultures,language,religion and the arts arise.Along the way,tears became more than a biological necessity to lubricate(润滑)the eye and developed into a sign of intense emotion and a signal of social bonding.The development of self-consciousness and the notion of individual identity,or ego;storytelling about the origins of the world,the creation of humanity and life after death;and the ability to feel others’sadness—all were critical parts of the neurobiological changes that made us human[N]More recently,we’ve learned from neuroscience that certain brain circuits(回路) are activated(激活),rapidly and unconsciously,when we see another in emotional distress.In short,our brain evolved circuits to allow us to experience sympathy,which in turn made civilization,and an ethics based on sympathy, possible.So the next time you reach a tissue box,or sob on a friend’s shoulder,or shed tears at the movies,stop and reflect on why we cry and what it means to cry.Becanse ultimately,while we love to cry,we also cry to love.46.Nowadays people respect the privacy of grief more than in the past.47.Infants cry to attract attention for survival.48.There is no scientific evidence as yet that animals can shed tears from emotion.49.Tears can perform certain communicative functions which words cannot.50.Our ability to experience sympathy is essential to the development of civilization.51.People are more inclined to cry when suffering minor forms of depression.52.Sometimes people cannot cry despite genuine grief.53.In humans’long history,tears have developed an essential role in socialrelationships.54.Men are less likely to give reasons for their tears.55.Crying has long been associated with art.Section CDirections:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are fourchoices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choiceand mark the corresponding letter on Answer Sheet2with a single linethrough the centre.Passage OneQuestions56to60are based on following passage.Hospitals,hoping to curb medical error,have invested heavily to put computers, smartphones and other devices into the hands of medical staff for instant access to patient data,drug information and case studies.But like many cures,this solution has come with an unintended side effect: doctors and nurses can be focused on the screen and not the patient,even during moments of critical care.A poll showed that half of medical technicians had admitted texting during a procedure.This phenomenon has set off an intensifying discussion at hospitals and medical schools about a problem perhaps best described as“distracted doctoring.”In response, some hospitals have begun limiting the use of electronic devices in critical settings, while schools have started reminding medical students to focus on patients instead of devices.“You justify carrying devices around the hospital to do medical records,but you can surf the Internet or do Facebook,and sometimes Facebook is more tempting,”said Dr.Peter Papadakos at the University of Rochester Medical Center.“My gut feeling(本能的感觉)is lives are in danger,”said Dr.Papadakos.“We’re not educating people about the problem,and it’s getting worse.”A survey of439medical technicians found that55percent of technicians who monitor bypass machines acknowledged that they had talked on cellphones during heart surgery.Half said they had texted while in surgery.The study concluded,“Such distractions have the potential to be disastrous.”Medical professionals have always faced interruptions from cellphones,and multitasking is simply a fact of life for many medical jobs.What has changed,say doctors,especially younger ones,is that they face increasing pressure to interact with their devices.The pressure stems from a mantra(信条)of modem medicine that patient care must be“data driven,”and informed by the latest,instantly accessible information.By many accounts,the technology has helped reduce medical error by providing instant access to patient data or prescription details.Dr.Peter Carmel,president of the American Medical Association,said technology“offers great potential in health care.”but he added that doctors’first priority should be with the patient.56.Why do hospitals equip their staff with computers,smartphones and otherdevices?A.To reduce medical error.B.To cope with emergencies.C.To facilitate administration.D.To simplify medical procedures.57.What does the author refer to by“distracted doctoring”?A.The disservice done by modem devices to doctors,nurses,as well as patients.B.The tendency of medical institutions encouraging the use of modem devices.C.The problem of devices preventing doctors from focusing on their patients.D.The phenomenon of medical staff attending to personal affairs while working.58.What does Dr.Peter Papadakos worry about?A.Medical students are not adequately trained to use modem technology.B.Doctor’s interaction with their devices may endanger patients’lives.C.Doctors are relying too heavily on modem electronic technology.D.Pressures on the medical profession may become overwhelming.59.Why do doctors feel increasing pressure to use modem devices?A.Patients trust doctors who use modern technology.e of modem devices adds to hospitals’revenues.C.Data is given too much importance in patient care.D.Patients’data has to be revised from time to time.60.What is Peter Carmel’s advice to doctors?A.They follow closely the advances in medical science.B.They focus their attention on the patient’s condition.C.They observe hospital rules and regulations.D.They make the best use of modem devices.Passage TwoQuestions61to65are based on the following passage.I have closely watched my generation,known as The Millennials,for29years now.Joel Stein wrote an extensive piece on Millennials and he remains rather optimistic about our potential.I hesitate to share his optimism because of a paradox(矛盾的现象)we seem to exhibit,namely,that there are more avenues for us to entertain ourselves than ever before,yet we are more bored than ever before.Entertainment has never been more varied.We have more cable channels, television shows,and movies than ever before.Internet providers allow instantviewing of almost any movie or television program ever created.Social drinking and partying are also widely available for Millennials.Every generation develops these habits at a certain age,but Millennials seem to be extending this phase of life as they postpone marriage.Some of this is undoubtedly due to The Great lennials are having a difficult time finding jobs;only47percent of16-to-24-year-olds are employed,the smallest share since government started recording data in1948.But do Millennials respond to these economic troubles by doing whatever it takes to make ends meet?Hardly.In fact,of the four generations Pew Research has data for,the Millennial generation does not cite work ethic(勤奋工作)as distinctive of lennials want to save the world,but they sit and wait for that world-changing opportunity to be handed to them.Instead of working2-3jobs, launching a business,or doing what it takes to succeed,they lennials may be the first generation to have a lower standard of living than their parents,but with this response to adversity(逆境),perhaps deservingly so.Much ink has been spilled in management books discussing how to get the most out of these youths in the rgely,they come to the same conclusion: Millennials are entitled,over-confident,and expect too much too quickly.We should not be surprised.Today’s young adults were raised by parents who made sure to boost their self-esteem at every turn,telling them they could achieve whatever they set their minds to,and handing out prizes for the sixth place.61.What does the author of the passage think of Millennials?A.They show little interest in entertainment.B.They are not confident about their ability.C.They enjoy an easy life due to high technology.D.They may not have bright prospects for success.62.How do Millennials feel about their life?A.They can hardly do anything about it.B.There is little in it to get excited about.C.It is not as good as their parents’.D.It is full of opportunities for success.63.In what way are Millennials different from previous generations according to PewResearch?A.They spend less time socializing.B.They are indifferent to others.C.They do not value hard work.D.They are more independent.64.What should Millennials do according to the author?A.Remain optimistic in face of adversity.B.Start a business as early as possible.C.Make full use of new opportunities.D.Take action to change their situation.65.Why are Millennials over-confident about themselves?A.They have been spoiled by their parents.B.They can always get whatever they expect.C.They are misguided by management books.D.They think they are young and energetic.PartⅣTranslation(30minutes) Directions:For this part,you are allowed30minutes to translate a passage from
