Part Ⅳ?
试题分析:?
本题目所要改的错大都属于词义、词汇用法、词语搭配、习惯用法、句子结构等方面的问题。?
【参考答案】?
71.and→but。and表示递进并列关系;but表示转折关系。根据上下文应用but。
72. about→for。reason与介词for搭配,表示“……的原因”。?
73. very better→very much better。very不能修饰形容词的比较级,只能用much,far, very much, a lot, any, no, rather, a little, a bit修饰。?
74. by→in。by the way:顺便说一下;in the right way:以正确的方式,又如:in your own way:以自己的方式。?
75. pronounce→pronouncing。在that 引导的宾语从句中主语是动名词短语pronouncing a foreign language,原形动词(这里为pronounce)不能作主语。?
76. himself→itself。one在本句中不是指人,所以其反身代词可用itself,而不用himself。?
77. concerning→concerned。be concerned with:关于,如:The book is chiefly concerned with history。concerning作分词用,意为“涉及到”,此处不仅词义不当,而且concering后绝不能加with。?
78. may→should。may表示推测、请求、允许或祝愿:should表示义务、建议、惊奇、推测等。这里讲的是老师的义务,故应该为should。
79. worth→worthy。 worth可用在两个结构中,后面跟ing形式。1)用先行词it作主语,如:it isn't worth getting upset。2)用名次或代词作主语,如:The book is not worth reading. worthy 多用于worthy of + ?n.? or be worthy to + ?v.? 结构中,也可用作定语,如:a cause worthy of support/ a man who is worthy to have a place in the team/ a worthy winner。?
80. where→when。occasion是指动作发生的时机而不是地点,故应用表示时间的副词引导的定语从句修饰occasion。?

Information in the Modern World?

Information is of great significance in the modern world. Since the world is developing at an ever-increasing speed, it is important for us to be well-informed.
Otherwise, we will fail to keep pace with the fast developing world. Therefore,
on the one hand, we need information to communicate with each other, on the other hand, we are in need of it to compete with others and to attain our goals. Success in many fields depends on the acquisition of the latest information, while failure results from the lack of necessary information. ?
Then how to get well-informed? Today, there are many means of getting and exchanging information which enable us to keep up with what is going on in the world. For example, reading newspapers, listening to the radio and watching TV are common means of getting information. In addition, in the booming age of science and
technology, people can have easy access to the Internet, which proves the most convenient and efficient bridge to the outside world.?
As to the role of information in the future, I assume that it will play a more and more crucial role in society. And what is more important is that people can acquire more prompt and extensive information on which their success depends.?

Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension (35 minutes)

Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:?
Professor Kumar Bhatt, founder and head of Warwick Manufacturing Group(WMG), and Rob Meakin, a personnel director at Marconi, have developed a partnership to train engineers and managers to become e-literate. The New Knowledge Partnership will include a team of 40 Marconi managers in what Professor Bhatt calls electronic engineering management or E2. A wide range of engineering and non-engineering companies has expressed interest in these exciting programs.?
Professor Bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing the business environment to a huge extent. Many chief executives do not understand the power of the new technologies and, in some cases, are actually resisting change. He says that “As long as enough industry leaders realize its potential benefits, e-business will make possible a second productivity revolution in Britain. This could take the economy close to eliminating the still substantial competitiveness gap with its main rivals. Over the last five years in the US there has been a 30% improvement in manufacturing sector productivity because of information technology. In Britain we can achieve more than that and successful e-business will be worth billions to the UK economy.”?Already Britain makes more use of computer-aided design and manufacture (CAD/CAM) and management information technology systems than other European countries, and has a government that actively promotes e-business. But, observes Professor Bhatt, Britain has never used technology as a growth driver. “The thing about electronic engineering management is that you can keep your legacy systems; you just need to link those systems with an information engine. At the touch of a button it will allow project managers to see the status of a project, identify problems precisely and make virtually immediate decisions based on information that will be much more complete than in the past.”?
The E2 program is the result of an alliance by the Warwick Manufacturing Group with America’s leading e-commerce study center, Carnegie Mellon. The latter will be responsible for training many of the Marconi managers in America, where the group has half its business. In Britain, Professor Bhatt has linked up with Sun Microsystems, Oracle and Parametric Technology, to set up a multi-million pound E2 design and manufacturing center at the university which will be used for training and research.?
Professor Bhatt believes that e-commerce is changing business to such an extent that WMG is likely to be renamed Warwick Electronic Manufacturing Group. But, he warns “The move to globalize because of e-commerce is racing ahead. Although the net allows British industry to overtake their European peers, it also offers Asian countries to leapfrog(相互超越) the West. For the first time it is not the privilege of the western world because this technology is universal.”?
21.Professor Bhatt and Rob Meakin have developed a method to___.?
A) teach electronic engineering management?
B) train employees to be acquainted with e-commerce?
C) train employees to be engineers and managers?
D) teach employees about developing a partnership?
22.How does Professor Bhatt feel about many leaders in companies??
A) They do not understand a possible second productivity revolution in Britain. ?
B) They are excited about change.?
C) They are ready for e-business.?
D) They sometimes are against the change resulted from new technologies.?
23.According to the passage, what do you know about e-business in Britain??
A)E-business has eliminated many competitive rivals.?
B)E-business has done many benefits to big companies.?
C)Many companies have joined in the E2 business program.?
D) E-business has great potential and will make changes in the country.?
24.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE??
A) Britain can be competitive to US in the area of information technology.?
B) Britain has already taken the advantages of running engineering management.?
C) As with many other European countries, Britain has made use of computer-aided systems.?
D) E-commerce has offered opportunities to European countries to eliminate the competitiveness gap with all the rivals.?
25.WMG would like to change its name because ___.?
A)Britain is going to catch up with all other European countries in the field of electronic engineering management?
B)business has been influenced so much by e-commerce?
C)the e-commerce has offered Asian countries the chance to overtake Britain and the rest of Europe?
D)e-business is very popular and will become universal

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:?
Emotional maturity means knowing that another person cannot fill up the hole in your heart. That is your responsibility. You need to love and affirm yourself day-by-day, moment-by-moment. That is the spiritual challenge of your life and everybody’s life. Without your love for yourself, nothing works. No amount of love from your partner is enough. The search for love from other people is like the alcoholic’s search for happiness in a bottle. The more he drinks, the less satisfied he feels and the more he wants to drink.?
We are all addicted to falling in love. But after we’ve “fallen” a few times and broken our emotional bones, we hopefully wise up a bit. We know that the high of falling in love is not going to last. We know that sooner or later we will have to get real with each other. That is the difference between romance and partnership. Romance is an attempt to keep the addiction going. It has a very short half-life. Partnership is the dance of two ordinary people learning to live together day by day. It is a very challenging school that we enroll in. It is sometimes a lot more work than play. And it certainly requires a lot more psychological adjustment than years of therapy! We don’t just graduate from this school in a year or two. It takes many years, perhaps even a lifetime, for us to master the curriculum.?
Your partners are imperfect human beings, just like you. They were not the “wrong” partners any more than you were. Probably, they reflected your own level of realism and emotional maturity. That’s usually the way it works. So don’t waste your time thinking you simply made some bad choices. The only bad choice you made was forgetting who has the full time job loving you. I know that you know who this is !?
We keep remembering that they are not perfect, nor we are. Love is not a game of perfection. It is a game of overwhelming imperfection. The amazing thing is that love survives all of our mistaken attempts to control our partners and our relationships.?
26.We can conclude from the passage that___.?
A) we won’t forget who has the full time loving us?
B) love is addictive?
C) love from your partner is not enough?
D) love lies in the maturity of emotion which is essential to a partnership or relationship?
27.Which of the following statements is true according to the passage??
A) To seek for true love, one must be realistic.?
B) As long as we are emotionally mature, we can always enjoy the high of falling in love.?
C) Love doesn’t die even if we make wrong attempts to control our partners.?
D) The more one is loved, the less satisfied he or she feels.?
28.It can be inferred from the passage that___.?
A) the more we try to control our partners and relationships, the better we can enjoy love?
B) the more frequently we fall in love, the more intelligent we’ll be?
C) the more emotionally mature a couple are, the more harmonious they will live?
D) it’s unrealistic for you to search for true love from others?
29.By saying “They were not the ‘wrong’ partners any more than you were.”(Para 3), the author means ___.?
A) you chose the wrong partner just as your partner did?
B) your partner was not as good as you were?
C) you were good partners to each other?
D) neither of you is a good partner?
30.Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage??
A) Some people regret their choices of love partners.?
B) In some partnership or relationship, he or she tries to control the other.?
C) Through psychological adjustment and therapy, one will feel satisfied with love.?
D) Partnership is a school from which it is not easy for us to graduate.?

Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:?
What is terrorism??
In a growing number of conflicts around the world, one or both sides attempt to label the other as “terrorist” in an effort to win support for their own causes. Yet as the so-called “terrorists group” often proclaim, a clear distinction between a terrorist action and a non-terrorist military operation is frequently difficult to establish. Most governments argue that terrorism is defined by violent methods to achieve political ends which are undertaken by organizations not recognized by the world community as legitimate representatives of a nation; furthermore, random acts of violence, like attacks on school buses or shopping centers, are labeled as “terrorist”. Political organization as the IRA(Irish Republican Army) and the PLO (Palestine Liberation Organization) have been dubbed(称为) “terrorists”, by the governments of England and Israel because of their tactics and their non-official statuses as representatives of accurately defined nations. In the case of the PLO, however, its election to power under Yasser Arafat has now confused its former recognition as terrorist. Even the IRA is earning status as an authentic opposition voice to the continued presence of British troops on Irish soil.?
All this simply highlights the problems of separating what is a legitimate political organization with “the right” to employ violence to achieve political ends from so-called terrorist groups. Inseparable from this issue is historical precedence(地位先后) and the degree of power and prestige an organization or nation has on the world stage. For example, while most independent observes would agree that the IRA setting off a bomb in a London subway station confirms its notoriety, they would be less certain that Israel’s recent bombing of a refugee camp is equally “terrorist”, despite the fact that many more innocent people were killed and injured in the latter incident than in the former. This raises the question, though certainly not for the first time, whether legitimate, even democratically elected, governments are also capable of terrorist action. Is there always a clear moral distinction between the behavior of normally respected nations and that of “rogue”(流氓) organizations? What does seem clear from these reflections is not that terrorist actions are in any way justified, but that the use of such labels is sometimes based on a political need rather than on superior moral or ethical grounds.?
31.What is the point the article tries to make??
A) Non-official status of a political organization involves terrorist suspicion.?
B) Terrorism defies clear-cut distinction.?
C) Terrorist element exists in every violent conflict.?
D) Government actions are never guilty of terrorism.?
32.Which of the following could be concluded from the article??
A)An indisputable example of a terrorist group is PLO.?
B)Actions to achieve political ends cannot avoid using force.?
C)An acceptable criterion for terrorism is killing civilians.?
D)International prestige is a justification for violence.?
33.The classification of PLO is now less clear because___.?
A) it begins to show friendly attitude towards Israel?
B) it stands for an independent state in the Middle East?
C) it is no longer engaged in random performance of violence?
D) it is the elected political representative of the Palestine?
34.It could be logically inferred from the article that____.?
A) terrorism is not being defined on ethical criteria?
B) defense actions committed on a foreign land is admissible?
C) terrorism unavoidably involves immoral policies?
D) democratic nations are innocent of terrorism?
35.The author wrote this article to ___.?

Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:?
It is curious how much one despises and condemns the vices which one does not happen to possess. I am indeed not a severe man, nor would I permit myself to become intolerant of those failings which I share with others. But, having no particular temptation to be untruthful, I find myself believing that when one comes to think of it, truth is the major virtue and lying the most blameworthy of all the vices.?I should like, therefore, to get my mind a little clearer on the truth question. I flatter myself, as I have said, that I am a truthful man: a man who, when he tells a lie, is careful not to forget that he has done so, and who takes infinite precautions to prevent his being found out. This, in the end, is the only test by which you can distinguish the liar from the man of truth. The latter which is bothered by untruthfulness, is worried and anxious. The real liar, however, is merely amused: he doesn’t mind in the least even if he is subsequently exposed: he regards the truthful man as somewhat of a fool.?
But this surely is one of the many false statements with which the real liar will try hard to idealize his failing. It may be inevitabe and even just to tell lies, but it cannot seriously be argued that such habits are intelligent. A lie is always an act of mental cowardice, whereas intelligence is brave. And yet there was Bismarck, and yet there was Napoleon-surely intelligent man, and surely liars. The problem, therefore, is not so simple as it seems.?
It was simple enough, in those old days, to define with approximate accuracy when a given statement ceased to be the truth and became a lie. The essential test was whether the maker of a false statement knew that he was saying something false, and consciously wished his audience to accept, and to remain under, this false impression. Life in civilized communities is a process of adjusting the personal to the social, of conforming the individual impression to the joint impressions of the common people. This process of adjustment leads inevitably and rightly to a certain unconscious deception. Absolute truth, whether unconscious or even conscious, is thus impossible. It is to relative truth only that we can hope to aspire.?
36.The author suggests that it is usual that___.?
A) a person shows strong disapproval of the vices an individual doesn’t have?
B) everyone feels contempt for the vices that most people have?
C) most people are unlikely to condemn the vices they possess?
D) the vices one doesn’t possess are worthy of severe condemnation?
37.The author claims that___.?
A) he wouldn’t tolerate the vices that people have in common?
B) he doesn’t feel particular contempt for being untruthful?
C) one may be tempted to untruthfulness when one comes to think of it?
D) untruthfulness is a serious fault of character which he condemns strongly?
38.The essential distinction between a truthful person and a liar lies in the fact that ___.?
A) the former feels uneasy about the untruths he happens to tell?
B) the latter takes great care to hinder his untruths from being exposed?
C) the former is willing to confess his untruthfulness when he tells a lie?
D) the latter is only amazed if his untruths area disclosed?
39.It is true,according to the text,real liars will___.?
A) try hard to perfect their vices with false statements?
B) believe it unavoidable and reasonable for everyone to tell lies?
C) argue that their habits of telling lies are intelligent rather than foolish?
D) are misunderstood as being either cowardly or brave individuals?
40.In the author’s opinion,___.?
A) bismarck and Napoleon were intelligent men of truth?
B) in modern society, nobody can escape the risk of making a false statement, intentionally or unintentionally?
C) untruthful man is worried about being found out?
D) our civilized life makes conscious lies impossible

Passage One?
To succeed in a job interview, you should demonstrate certain personal and professional qualities. You need to create a good image in a limited time, usually from 40 to 70 minutes. You must leave a positive impression which the interviewer will remember while he interviews other applicants.?
You should especially pay attention to some qualities during the interview. First of all, you should take care to appear properly dressed. The right clothes worn at the right time can win the respect of the interviewer and his confidence in your judgment. It may not be true that clothes make the man, but the first and last impression of yours is determined by the clothes you wear. Secondly, you should reflect confidence by speaking in a clear voice, loud enough to be heard without being aggressive. You should be prepared to talk knowledgeably about the position you’re applying for. Finally, to be really impressive, you must convey a sense of self-confidence and an enthusiasm for work. If you display these characteristics with just a little luck, you’ll certainly succeed in a typical personal interview.?

11. How long does an interview usually last according to the speaker??
12. How can one give an interviewer good first impression??
13. What should be the best manner when you speak to an interviewer??
14. What’s the main idea of the talk you’ve just heard??

Passage Two?
Many teachers believe that the responsibility for learning lies with the students. If a long reading assignment is given, instructors expect students to be familiar with the information in the reading even if they do not discuss it in class or on a given examination. The ideal student is considered to be one who is motivated to learn for the sake of learning, not the one interested only in getting high marks.?
When research is assigned, the professor expects the student to take the initiative and to complete the assignment with minimal guidance. It is the student’s responsibility to find books, periodicals, and articles in the library. Professors do not have the time to explain how a university library works; they expect students, particularly graduate students, to be able to exhaust the reference sources in the library.?
Professors will help students who need it, but prefer that their students not be overly depend on them. In the United States, professors have other duties besides teaching. Often they are responsible for administrative work within their departments. In addition, they may be obliged to publish articles and books. Therefore, the time a professor can spend with a student outside of class is limited. If a student has problems with classroom work, the student should either approach a professor during office hours or make an appointment.?

15.For what purpose does an ideal student learn??
16.What do professors expect students do with their research assignments??
17.What’s the best way for a student to approach a professor about his problems with classroom work??

Passage Three?
What has happened to the youth of today? People of the older generations ask this question. Yet, for some time now a movement has been developing among our young people. It is called “Straight Edge” and its followers are attempting to overcome the poisons of life. The leader of this movement is Ian Mckays, a former Washington singer. He was the person who set the goal of this movement: no smoking, no drinking, no drugs. Since its birth in 1981, the movement has spread to Europe and is growing worldwide.?
Lutz Dinslage,19, has been one of the movement’s followers for a year now. “My friends first introduced me to the movement, and I became interested in it. I began to realize that I no longer wanted to create false feelings of happiness by smoking, drinking or taking drugs. I did not want to just mess around. For this reason I changed my attitude and my habits and decided to live out the principles of this movement.”?
At present it is still not clear whether Straight Edge will continue to develop into a promising movement of the future. However, one thing is certain: we are dealing with a trend that is proving that a healthier life style among the young people is possible.?
18.What is the goal of Straight Edge??
19.What can we infer from the passage about Lutz Dinslage??
20.What is Straight Edge proving?

参考范文:
Economic Development and Moral Decline?
These years, the economy in China is advancing by leaps and bounds. With this swift development, people’s life is better off and they get much more money to spend. But it’s human nature that they want to get even more. Money worship is sweeping across the whole country. With the popular misconception that money is everything, many immoral social phenomena have emerged. One of them is moral decline.?
Leaving the theft, robbery aside, corrupt conducts are getting more rampant. For instance, offering and taking bribes is becoming increasingly a social malady in the privileged class. For businessmen, they have a different morality which permits them to willfully produce ineffective or even dangerous products, advertise their products dishonestly. For some richest persons, they get confused about their life. They are occupied with nothing all day long and don’t know how to make themselves more satisfied, as a result they take drugs, among many other unlawful practices, to seek fun. They have money, but they have lost their aim in life and can’t find happiness.?
Am I suggesting that we should discard all the money and go back to the “poor days”? No! the wheel of history can’t be stopped. But if moral decline is the inevitable product of the economic development, we can certainly lay down some effective laws to stop the degeneration. If so, a bright and healthy future is sure to come and stay with us!?

You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. ? Passage One?
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:? Many people seem to think that science fiction is typified by the Bug-eyed Monster,embodying every feature that most people find repulsive.This is unfortunate because it degrades a worthwhile literary endeavor. Instead, the basic interest of science fiction lies in the relation between man and his technology and between man and the universe. Science fiction is a literature of change and a literature of the future, and the aspects of human life that it considers make it well worth reading and studying for no other literary form does quite the same things. What is science fiction? To begin, the following definition should be helpful: science fiction is a literary subgenre which postulates(以…为前提) a change (for human beings) from conditions as we know them and follows the implications of these changes to a conclusion.?
The first point that science fiction is a literary sub genre-is a very important one, but one which is often overlooked or ignored in most discussions of science fiction. Specifically, science fiction is either a short story or a novel. There are only a few dramas which could be called science fiction, the body of poetry that might be labeled science fiction is only slightly larger. To say that science fiction is a subgenre of prose fiction is to say that it has all the basic characteristics and serves the same basic functions in much the same way as prose fiction in general, that is, it shares a great deal with all other novels and short stories.?
Everything that can be said about prose fiction, in general, applies to science fiction. Every piece of science fiction, whether short story or novel, must have a narrator, a story, a plot, the themes of science fiction are concerned with interpreting man’s nature and experience in relation to the world around him. Themes in science fiction are constructed and presented in exactly the same ways that themes are dealt with in any other kind of fiction. They are the result to a particular combination of a narrator, story, plot, character, setting, and language. In short, the reasons for reading and enjoying science fiction, and the ways of studying and analyzing it, are basically the same as they would be for any other story or novel.?
21.From the first paragraph, we can infer that science fiction has been most popular in the 20th century because ____.?
A) with the growth of literacy, the size of the reading public has increased?
B) competition from television has created a demand for more exciting fiction?
C) science fiction is easier to understand than other kinds of fiction?
D) the increased importance of technology has given science fiction an increased relevance?
22.According to the definition in the passage, a fictional work that places human beings in a prehistoric world inhabited by dinosaurs____.?
A) cannot be called science fiction because it does not deal with the future?
B) cannot be called science fiction because it doesn’t deal with technology?
C) can be called science fiction because it deals with man’s relation to the world ?
D) can be called science fiction because it places people in an environment different from the one we know?
23. Science fiction is called a literary subgenre because____.?
A) it is not important enough to be a literary genre?
B) it cannot be made into a dramatic presentation?
C) it shares characteristics with other types of prose fiction?
D) it has its limits?
24.One implication of the final sentence in the passage is that____.?
A) the reader should turn next to commentaries on general fiction?
B) there is no reason for any reader not to like science fiction?
C) the reader should compare other novels and stories to science fiction?
D) those who can appreciate prose fiction can appreciate science fiction?
25.An appropriate title for this passage would be____.?
A) Man and the Universe?
B) Toward a Definition of Science Fiction?
C) A Type of Prose Fiction?
D) The Bug-Eyed Monster??

Passage Two?
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:?
The railroads played a key role in the settlement of the West. They provided relatively easy access to the region for the first time, and they also actively recruited farmers to settle there. The railroads are criticized for their part in settling the West too rapidly, with its resultant economic unrest. (After the Civil War the vast Great Plains area was settled all at once.) Of course there were abuses connected with building and operating the railroads, but it must be pointed out that they performed a useful service in extending the frontier and helping to achieve national unity.?
The real tragedy of the rapid settlement of the Great Plains was the shameful way in which the American Indians were treated. Threatened with the destruction of their whole mode of life, the Indians fought back savagely against the white man’s final assault. Justice was almost entirely on the Indians’ side. The land was clearly theirs. The Indians, however, lacked the military force and the political power to protect this right. Not only did white men possess the Indians’ hunting grounds, but they rapidly destroyed the Indians’ principal means of existence—the buffalo. It has been estimated that there are 15 million buffalo in the plains in the 1860s. By 1869 the railroads had cut the herd in half, and by 1875 the southern herd was all but eliminated. By the middle of the 1880s the northern herd was also a thing to the past. Particularly annoying to the Indians was the fact that the white man frequently killed the buffalo merely for sport, leaving the valuable dead body to rot in the sun. ?
Theoretically, at least, the government tried to be fair to the Indians, but all too often the Indian agents were either too indifferent or corrupt to carry out the government’s promises conscientiously, the army frequently ignored the Indian Bureau and failed to coordinate its policies with the civilians who were normally in charge of Indian affairs. The settlers hated and feared the Indians and wanted them exterminated. This barbaric attitude, is certainly not excusable, but it is understandable in the context of the times.?
26.The author’s attitude toward the treatment of American Indians by whites is of ____.?
A) qualified regret B) violent anger?C) strong disapproval D) objective indifference?
27.The author implies which of the following about the forces at work during the settlement of the Great Plains??
A)The federal government represented the moral use of law.?
B)Justice was overcome by military firepower.?
C)Attempts by the government to be fair were rejected by the Indians.?
D)The settler’s hatred and fear was offset by the Indians’ attempts at kindness. ?
28.Which of the following shows that the white settlers did not need the buffalo as did the Indians??
A) Buffalo dead bodies were left rotting in the sun by whites. ?
B) Nearly fifteen million buffalo were killed within twenty years.?
C) More than half of the great buffalo herd had disappeared by 1869.?
D) The railroad brought necessary food and supplies to the white settlers.?
29.The author of the passage would most likely disagree that____.?
A) the U.S. government’s policies towards the American Indians were shameful?
B) the land that the Indians fought to retain belonged to them?
C) numerous abuses were among the results of the railroads’ rapid spread ?
D) the U. S. army could not be considered a friend of the American Indian?
30.It can be inferred from the passage that the purpose of the Indian Bureau was to____.?
A) establish reservations where the peaceful American Indians would live?
B) assist with Indian affairs regarding the American Indians?
C) help Indians with their food supplies?
D) assist the Indians in learning a new method of obtaining food ? Passage Three?
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:? “Popular”art has a number of meanings,impossible to define with any precision,which range from folklore to junk(质量低劣的东西).The poles are clear enough,but the middle tends to blur.There can be great trash, just as there is bad high art.The musicals of George Gershwin are great popular art,never aspiring to high art.Schubert and Brahms,however,used elements of popular music-folk themes-in works clearly intended as high art.The case of Verdi is a different one,he took a popular genre(流派)-bourgeois melodrama set to music(an accurate definition of 19th century opera)and,without altering its fundamental nature,transformed it into high art.This remains one of the greatest achievements in music,and one that cannot be fully appreciated without recognizing the essential trashiness of the genre.?As an example of such a transformation, consider what Verdi made of the typical political elements of 19th century opera. Generally in the plots of these operas, a hero or heroine--usually portrayed only as an individual, independent from social class is caught between the corruption of the aristocracy and the greed of the proletariat. Verdi transforms this naive and unlikely formulation with music of extraordinary energy and rhythmic vitality, music more subtle than it seems at first hearing. Such pieces lend an immediacy to the otherwise concealed political message of these operas and call up feelings beyond those of the opera itself.?
Or consider Verdi’s treatment of character. Before Verdi, there were rarely any characters at all in musical drama, only a series of situations which allowed the singers to express a series of emotional states. Any attempt to find coherent psychological portrayal in these is misplaced cleverness. The only coherence was the singer’s vocal technique: when the cast changed, new arias (独唱曲) were from other operas. Verdi’s characters, on the other hand, have consistency and integrity. The integrity of the character is achieved through the music: once he had become established. Verdi did not rewrite his music for different singers or countenance alterations, as every 18th-century composer had done. When he revised an opera, he only intended for dramatic economy and effectiveness.?
31.The author refers to Schubert and Brahms in order to suggest____.?
A) that their works are examples of great trash?
B) that their works are examples of high art?
C) that popular music could be employed in compositions intended as high art?
D) that their achievements are no less substantial than those of Verdi?
32.It can be inferred that the author regards the independence from social class of the heroes and heroines of 19th century opera as____.?
A) an idealized but fundamentally accurate portrayal of bourgeois life?
B) a plot convention with no real connection to political reality?
C) a plot refinement ?
D) a convention largely seen as irrelevant by audiences?
33.According to the passage, the immediacy of the political message in Verdi’s operas stems from the____.?
A) vitality and subtlety of the music?
B) audience’s familiarity with the earlier operas?
C) individual talents of the singers?
D) portrayal of the heightened emotional states?
34.According to the passage, all of the following characterize music drama before Verdi EXCEPT____.?
A) arias tailored to a particular singer’s ability?
B) adaptation of music from other operas?
C) psychological inconsistency in the portrayal of characters?
D) music used for defining a character?
35.It can be inferred that the author regards Verdi’s revisions to his operas with____.?
A) regret that the original music and texts are altered?
B) concern that many of the revisions altered the plots of the original work ?
C) approval for the intentions that motivated the revisions.?
D) enthusiasm, since the revisions were aimed at reducing the conventionality? Passage Four?
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:? Surprisingly, modern historians have rarely been interested in the history of the American South in the period before the South began to become self-consciously “Southern”. Consequently, the cultural history of Britain’s North American Empire in the 17th and 18th centuries has been written almost as if the Southern colonies had never existed. The American culture that emerged during the Colonial periods has been depicted as having been simply an extension of New England Puritan culture. However, Professor Davis has recently argued that the South stood apart from the rest of American society during this early period, following its own unique pattern of cultural development. The case for Southern distinctiveness rests upon two related premises(前提): the first: the cultural similarities among the five Southern colonies were far more impressive than the differences; the second: what made those colonies alike also made them different from other colonies. The first, for which Davies offers an enormous amount of evidence, can be accepted; the second is far more problematic.?
What makes the second premise problematic is the use of the Puritan colonies as a basis for comparison. Quite properly, Davis condemns the excessive influence ascribed by historians to the Puritans in the formation of American culture. Yet Davis carelessly adds weight to such ascriptions by using the puritans as the standard against which to assess the achievements and contributions of Southern colonials. Throughout, Davis focuses on the important differences between the Southern and Puritan colonies in patterns of early settlement, in attitudes toward nature and Native Americans, and in the degree of receptivity (接受能力) to metropolitan cultural influences.?
However, recent scholarship has strongly suggested that aspects of early New England culture that seem to have been most distinctly puritan, such as the strong religious orientation, were largely confined to the two colonies of Massachusetts and Connecticut.?
36.According to the first paragraph, modern historians____.?
A) are not interested in the history of American South?
B) are more interested in the history of American South?
C) are not interested in the history of American South colonies?
D) are seldom interested in the history of American South colonies?
37.The author mainly attempts to argue about____.?
A)the influence of puritan culture on the early American south?
B)the distinctiveness of the early American South culture?
C)early American culture was similar in nature?
D)the American South made greater contributions to early American culture than Puritan New England did.?
38.According to Professor Davis, the culture of American South colonies ____.?
A) has its own uniqueness?
B) differs greatly from each other?
C) is similar to Puritan Culture?
D) is problematic?
39.According to the author, the depiction of American culture during the Colonial periods reflects the fact that____.?
A) American culture was influenced by the religious orientation of the colonists ?
B) historians overestimated the influence of Puritans on American culture?
C) Massachusetts served as cultural models for the other American colonies?
D) colonial America resisted Puritan cultural patterns ?
40.The author is in agreement with which of the following elements of Davis’ book.?
ⅠDavis’ argument that there were significant differences between Puritan and Southern culture during the Colonial period.
ⅡDavis’ thesis that the cultural of Southern colonies differs a lot from each other.?
A) I and II.?B) II only.?C) I only.?D) None.

? There is a popular belief among parents that schools are no longer interested in spelling. No school I have taught has ever ignored spelling or considered it important as a basic skill. There are, however, vastly different ideas about how to teach it, or how much priority (重点) it must be given over general language development and written ability. The problem is, how to encourage a child to express himself freely and confidently in writing without holding him back with the complexities of spelling??
If spelling becomes the only focal point of his teacher’s interest, clearly a bright child will be like to “play safe”. He will tend to write only words with his range and choose to avoid adventurous language. That is why teachers often encouraging the early use of dictionaries and pay attention to content rather than technical ability.?
I was shocking to read on the bottom of a sensitive piece of writing about personal experience: “This work is terrible! There are far too many spelling errors and your writing is eligible.” It may have been a sharp criticism of the pupil’s technical abilities in writing, but it was also a sad reflection at the teacher who has omitted to read the essay, which contained any beautiful expressions of the child’s deep feelings. The teacher’s wrong not to draw attention to the errors, but if his priority centered on the child’s ideas, as expression of his disappointment with the presentation would have given the pupil more motivation to seek improvement.

Urban life has always involved a balancing of opportunities and (11) rewards against dangers and stress; its (12) motivating force is, in the broadest sense, money. Opportunities to make money mean competition and competition is stressful; it is often at its most intense in the largest cities, where opportunities are greatest. The presence of huge numbers of people inevitably involves more conflict, more traveling, the (13) overloading of public services and (14) exposure to those (15) deviants and criminals who are drawn to the rich pickings of great cities. Crime has always (16) flourished in the relative anonymity of urban life, but today’s ease of movement makes its control more difficult than ever; there is much evidence that its extent has a direct relationship to the size of the communities. City (17) dwellers may become trapped in their homes by the fear of crime around them.?
As a defense against these developments, (18) city dwellers tend to use various strategies to try and reduce the pressures upon themselves: contacts with other people are generally made brief and impersonal; doors are kept locked; telephone numbers may be ex-directory; journeys outside the home are usually hurried, rather than a source of pleasure. (19) There are other strategies, too, which are positively harmful to the individual, for example, reducing awareness through drugs or alcohol. Furthermore, all these defensive form of behavior are harmful to society in general; they cause widespread loneliness and destroy the community’s concern for its members.
(20)Lack of informal social contact and indifference to the misfortunes of others, are amongst the major causes of urban crime.

31.【答案】C。?

【试题分析】细节推理题。?

【试题分析】细节推理题。?
【详细解答】见第二段第三四句,“Verdi transforms ...with music of extraordinary energy and rhythmic vitality, music more subtle ... Such pieces lend an immediacy to the otherwise concealed political message...”正是由于他的音乐生动富有活力才使得原本隐藏的政治信息传达的更直观,由此可知A)为正确答案。 B) 观众对早期歌剧的熟悉;C)歌手个人的才能;D)对提升的情感的刻画;文中并为提及,为错误答案。?
34.【答案】D。?
【译文】威尔地之前的歌剧不具有以下哪一点:用来刻画角色的音乐。?

35.【答案】C。?
【译文】作者对威尔地改编歌剧所持的态度是:赞同他的意图和动机。?
【试题分析】细节推理题。?
【详细解答】见文章最后一句话,“When he revised an opera, he only intended for dramatic economy and effectiveness”当他改写歌剧的时候,他试图达到经济、有效的目的,由此可推断C)为正确答案。A)遗憾的态度,因为他改变了原有的音乐和剧本; B) 关注的态度,因为很多改写改变了原著的情节; D)热心的态度,因为改编致力于打破常规;都与文章旨意不符,为错误答案。?

Passage Four?
内容概要:?
本文讨论了戴威斯教授对殖民时期美国南部文化的看法。殖民时期英国的清教徒文化对美国社会影响深远,使美国没有自己的文化特色。戴威斯教授却认为美国南部文化有它的独立性。作者就这一看法进行了讨论。?
36.【答案】D。?
【译文】根据第一段,现代历史学家很少对美国南部殖民地的历史感兴趣。?
【试题分析】细节推理题。?
【详细解答】见第一段第一句话,“modern historians have rarely been interested in the history of the American South in the period before the South began to become self-consciously‘Southern’” 由此可以推断出 D)为正确答案。?
37.【答案】B。?
【译文】作者主要讨论了美国南部文化独特性的问题。?
【试题分析】主旨题。?

【试题分析】细节推理题。?
【详细解答】见第二段第二句,“Quite properly, Davis condemns the excessive influence ascribed by historians to the Puritans in the formation of American culture.”历史学家们过分地归结了清教徒对美国文化形成的重要性,戴威斯教授对此做出了恰当的批评。由此可推断出,作者同意戴威斯教授的观点,认为历史学家过分强调了清教徒对美国文化的影响。?
40.【答案】C。?
【译文】作者同意殖民时期美国南部文化与清教徒文化有重要的区别。?
【试题分析】判断推理题。?
【详细解答】 由上题可知,作者同意戴威斯教授的观点,殖民时期美国南部文化与清教徒文化有重要的区别,而II戴威斯教授认为南部文化之间区别很大,与文中提到的观点相反,见第一段倒数第二句,“the first: the cultural similarities among the five Southern colonies were far more impressive than the differences”表明南部文化的相似大于不同,所以为错误答案。?

Part Ⅱ
Reading Comprehension (20 minutes)
Directions: There are 4 passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. ?

Passage One
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: ?

African elephants have been slaughtered at alarming rate over the past decade, largely because they are the primary source of the world’s ivory. Their population has been dwindled from 1.3 million in 1979 to just 625,000 today, and the rate of killing has been accelerating in recent years because many of the older, bigger tusked animals have already been destroyed. “The poachers now must kill times as many elephants to get the same quantity of ivory,” explained Curtis Bohlen, Senior vice?president of the World Wildlife Fund.?
Though its record on the environment has been spotty so far,the government last week took the lead in a major conservation issue by imposing a ban on ivory imports into the US.The move came just four days after a consortium of conservation groups,including the World Wildlife Fund and Wildlife Conservation International,called for that kind of action, and it made the US the first nation to forbid imports of both raw and finished ivory.The ban,says Bohlen,sends a?very clear message to the ivory poachers that the game is over.
In the past African nations have resisted an ivory ban, but increasingly they realised that the decimation of the elephant herds poses a serious threat to their tourist business. Last month Tanzania and several other African countries called for an amendment to the 102?nation Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species that would make the ivory trade illegal worldwide. The amendment is expected to be approved at an October meeting in Geneva and to go into effect next January. But between now and then, conversationists contend, poachers may go on a rampage, killing elephants wholesale, so nations should unilaterally forbid imports right away. The US government brought that argument, and by week’s end the twelve?nation European Community had followed with its own ban.?

21.Which of the following is the best title for the passage??
A) African Elephants and the Ivory Trade.?
B) A Bid to Save the Elephant.?
C) The Poachers.?
D) Elephants In Danger.?

22.According to the passage, “dwindle” means ____.?
A) decrease?B) enlarge?
C) weaken?D) elimilate?

23.Since many of the older, bigger- tusked animals have already been destroyed, what did the poacher do??
A) They gave up poaching.?
B) They killed more elephants to get the same quantity of ivory.?
C) To them, game is over.?
D) They realized it was illegal to slaughter elephants.?

24.Why did the African nations welcome an ivory ban??
A) The rate of killing has been accelerating.?
B) The US government forbids imports of both raw and finished ivory.?
C) They realised that the killing of elephants is a serious threat to their tourist business.?
D) African people advocated an ivory ban.?

25.What’s the author’s attitude??
A) Subjective. B) Neutral.?
C) Possimistic. D) Active.?

Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: ?

In 58 million homes, the VCR has become nearly as much as the family car. But despite the VCR’s advantages, video buffs complain about its limits. To duplicate prerecorded movies, for instance, requires two VCRs awkwardly cabled together. No wonder, then, that fans at Chicago’s Consumer Electronics Show last week were excited by a new machine that eliminates the drawback. Moreover, its appearance was a triumph over well?wired opposition in Tokyo and Hollywood.?
The center of the excitement was the first dual?deck videotape recorder available to US consumers, the VCR?2, made by the tiny Arizona?based Go?Video company.?The VCR?2 enables its users to make high?quality duplicates of prerecorded tapes easily. It also lets viewers watch a tape while simultaneously recording off the air. Go?Video hopes to have a limited supply of the VCR?2 in stores by Christmastime, priced at just under $1,000.?
But the machine’s move from freeze?frame to faster?forward has not been easy.
For starters, Go?Video could find no Japanese companies, which control manufact
ure of crucial VCR parts, willing to provide needed components. For another thin
g, US movie studios opposed the machine. So the company sued 15 Japanese and Kor
ean makers, plus the Hollywood studios, claiming restrain of trade. Several manu
factures have now settled with Go?Video, and Korea’s Smsung, is tooling up to produce the VCR?2. ?Meanwhile, Hollywood has modified its opposition because Go?Video agreed to install circuitry that will prevent the VCR?2 from copying movies protected by anti?theft coding. Still movie makers may see double for a while. Many of the films on store shelves, including hot new rentals like Coming to America and Crocodile Dundee Ⅱ, do not contain the coding.?

26.VCR has many advantages, but it also has its limits which lie in ____.?
A) it’s not easy to duplicate prerecorded movies?
B) it can not duplicate prerecorded movies?
C) it can not be operated easily?
D) it takes too long to duplicate prerecorded movies?

27.According to the passage, the suitable word which can replace “drawback” is ____.?
A) breakthrough B) advantage?
C) barrier D) function?

28.What’s the advantages of VCR?2??
A) It can make high?quality duplicates of prerecorded tapes easily.?
B) It can let viewers watch a tape while simultaneously recording off the air.
C) It can duplicate prerecorded movies clearly.?
D) Both A and B.?

29.Why did Go?Video company sue Japanese makers??
A) Because Japanese makers are tooling up to produce the VCR?2.?
B) Because no Japanese companies are willing to sell needed components.?
C) Because Japanese makers like to cooperate with Korean counterparts.?
D) Because Japanese makers compete with them.?

30.Hollywood began to cooperate with Go?Video Company, because ____.?
A) US consumers will have to pay rentals for duplicating movies?
B) VCR?2 will be installed circuitry to prevent it from copying movies protected by anti?theft coding?
C) with the help of VCR?2, the movies are more popular?
D) Go?video company can copy movies without the permission of Hollywood studios.?
Passage Three
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage: ?

When Anwar out of the way, will Mahathir’s war against foreign speculators actually help turn the economy around? The view of international financial analysts-foreigners-was largely pessimistic. Paul Krugman, from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, has suggested that the kind of financial restriction imposed by the IMF may not always be appropriate—and that it might be necessary for countries like Malaysia to close the doors and pump up production to buy time for reforms. But after Mahathir took that advice, Krgman quickly addressed an open letter to the Malaysian leader, warning that capital controls can work only as a “stopgap measure(权宜之策)”while putting together more fundamental banking and business reforms. Capital control “put more power into the hands of administrators, and people are rightly worried about abuse of powers,” says Simon Flint of Independent Economic Analysis in Singapore. “Intervention just leads to corruption.”?
Mahathir has heard and rejected such arguments before. Since his days fighting the British colonialists, he has dreamed of creating a Malays-assertive, competitive, hardworking who could stand up and be proud. If nothing else, Mahathir and his business friends have always thought big-developing the world’s tallest building, the biggest dam, an Asian Silicon Valley—anything to increase the sense of national pride. Two decades of big ideas and affirmative action policies have helped pull Malays up from poverty. Now Mahathir has lives to see the birth of his New Malay Man-and, in small irony, it has turned out to be Anwar. With all his confidence and worldly sophistication, Anwar epitomize (集中体现) the ideal Mahathir has sought all his life. Last week Mahathir moved to destroy his own creation, the rebel son who has stood beside the old nationalist as the answer to his dream.?

31.Why did Paul Krugman regard capital controls as a stopgap measure??
A) Because he was largely pessimistic.?
B) Because financial restrition is not appropriate.?
C) Because it benefits foreign speculators.?
D) Because in the long run, it will lead to abuse of powers.?

32.What’s the reaction of Mahathir when he heard “Intervention just leads to corruption.”?
A) He has rejected such arguments before.?
B) He thought it right and accept it.?
C) He regretted what he had done.?
D) He moved to destroyed his own creation.?

33.Mahathir has always thought something big to increase the sense of national pride which lies in ____.?
A) the world’s tallest building?
B) the biggest dam?
C) an Asian silicon valley?
D) A, B and C?

34.How long did it take his big ideas to help pull Malays up from poverty??
A) 10 years. B) 20 years.?C) 12 years. D) 24 years.?

35.Why did Mahathir move to destroy Anuar??
A) Because Anwar did not embody his ideal.?
B) Because Anwar turned out to be a total failure.?
C) Because Anwar has stood beside the old nationalist.?
D) Because his dream become true.?

Passage Four
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage: ?
The home service industry in Beijing is expected to become more attractive both as a job and as an industry.?
Sources at the Beijing People’s Political Consultative Conference said resistance to home service work is melting away from minds of the city’s laid?off workers.?The Conference suggested the establishment of municipal centers which supervise property management, household mending and installation, and house keeping services.?Modern city life is creating a need for industrialization home services. This will create job opportunities for laid?off workers, said vice director of the Social Judicial Committee of the Conference.?
Beijing residents have long desired a home service industry. The demand is expected to drive new economic growth. There are few high quality home help services in Beijing and customers are always complaining.?
In the past, few laid?off workers in Beijing desired to work as home helpers, jobs largely taken by young women from the countryside. At the same time, some city residents have not felt safe trusting rural girls with modern household machines or with their small children. Many people would pay more for reliable house keepers who are more familiar with city life, but they have had no way of getting one, even though the city is home to thousands of laid?off workers.?
By the end of June this year, there were 30,600 jobless workers in the city. Most of them are women in their 40’s, who are not blessed with particular skills and who have had their work ethics shaped by the planned economy. Many of them were at a loss when they first realized they had lost their jobs and a way of life they had got used to for decades.?
They never imagined being laid?off by state?owned enterprises; they never considered other kinds of employment. For them, the private sector meant taking risks; housekeeping implied lower social status. Gao yunfang, 44, is a pioneer who is breaking the ice. She sells the Beijing Morning Post in the morning, and works at two households in the afternoon. She earns 1,000 yuan per month.
So she no longer worries about her daughter’s tuition at a university in Shanghai.?
36.What is talked about in the passage??
A) Home service. B) Modern city life.?
C) Laid?off workers. D) Social status.?

37.What does the word “laid?off” in the passage mean??
A) Heavily?burdened. B) Old.?
C) Inexperienced. D) Jobless.?

38.Why didn’t the laid?off workers like to do home services in the past??
A) Low salary.?
B) Lower social status.?
C) Dirty working condition.?
D) Too much extra work.?

39.Why were many laid?off workers at a loss??
A) Because they didn’t get used to the new way of life.?
B) Because they are too old to find a new job.?
C) Because they dislike being laid off.?
D) Because they think they lost their social status.?

40.In which ways is home service industry good for our society??
A) It meets the needs of modern life.?
B) It provides work opportunities for the laid?off workers.?
C) It is a new industry.?
D) A and B.

Griffith and others began to make longer films which provided the same powerful emotional appeal as did melodrama and presented spectacles far beyond what the theater could after. Consequently, after world war Ⅰ increasing numbers of spectators deserted the theater for the movies. This trend was accelerated in the late 1920’s as a result of two new elements. In 1927 sound was added to the previously silent film, and thus one of the theater’s principal claims to superiority vanished. In 1929 a serious economic depression began. Since audiences could go to the movies for a fraction of what it cost to see a play, theater going became a luxury which few could afford, especially as the depression deepened.?
By the end of world war Ⅱ, the American theater had been reduced to about thirty theaters in New York city and a small number of touring companies originating there.?

18. Why did movies do better than theater??
19. Up to the 1920’s, what was one objection to the films??
20. What made people choose the movie over the theater?

参考范文:
Wealth and Health?
With the development of society people attach more importance to wealth and health. But which is more important, wealth or health? Different people have different opinions.?
Some people think wealth is more important. They even say, money can not bring you everything, but without money, you can do nothing. In order to accumulate more money they can do anything.?
However other people regard health is more important. Once health lost, it is no use having a lot of money. Everybody wants to live a happy life. So they try their best to earn money which can ensure they lead a comfortable life, but if happiness and comfort are achieved at the cost of their health, how can they be happy??
As far as I am concerned, I love wealth, but I value health more, Because health is the premise on which people do anything. Without health money becomes useless. I think, everyone agrees that a wealthy person without good health can not live a happy life. Therefore we should keep fit by every possible means.?
