Her ability tonegotiate _11_ by the fact most of the technology she wanted was no commercialsecrets. Japans _12_ has also been strengthened by the fact that her internalmarket was large, so that _13_ to this market could be offered to multinationalcompanies as an attraction to them to grant licenses. Besides, Japan s work forcewas disciplined, so it was capable _14_ applying the information it acquired.12005 年 10 月自考英语（二）Finally, American and European companies, who were _15_ licensers, felt that theJapanese companies might take a large share of the world market _16_ they were notlimited by licensing agreement.Conditions of this sort, _17_ together in one nation, may well be unique, andthe case of Japan may therefore not actually demonstrate that licensing is just asefficient as multinational ownership for the _18_ of technology.

Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 point for each item)从下列每篇短文的问题后所给的四个选择项中选出一个最佳答案，并在答题卡上将相应的字母涂黑。Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage .One day, the principal came into our room and, after talking to the teacher, forsome reason said: “I wish all of the white scholars to stand for a moment.” I rosewith the others. The teacher looked at me and, calling my name, said: “You sit downfor the present, and rise with the others.” I did not quite understand her. Sherepeated: “You sit down now, and rise with the others.” I sat down puzzled and dumb.I saw and heard nothing. When the other were asked to rise, I did not know it. Whenschool was dismissed, I went out unconsciously. A few of the white boys laughed atme, saying: “Oh, youre a nigger, too.” I hurried on as fast as I could to where my looking glass hung on the wall inmy own little room. For an instant I was afraid to look, but when I did, I lookedlong and earnestly. I was accustomed to hearing remarks about my beauty; but now,for the first time, I became conscious of it and recognized it. I noticed the ivory(象牙) whiteness of my skin, the beauty of my mouth, the size and liquid darknessof my eyes. I ran downstairs and rushed to where my mother wassitting. I buried myhead in her lap and cried out:“Mother, tell me, am I a nigger? ” I could not seeher face, but I felt her hands on my head. I looked up into her face. There were tearsin her eyes and I could see that she was suffering for me. And then it was that Ilooked at her critically for the first time. I had thought of her in a childish wayonly as the most beautiful woman in the world; now I looked at her searching for defects.I could see that her skin was almost brown, and that she did differ in some way fromthe other ladies who came to the house; yet, even so I could see that she was more22005 年 10 月自考英语（二）beautiful than any of them. Shemust have felt that I was examining her, for she hidher face in my hair and said with difficulty: “No, my darling, you are not a nigger.”She went on: “If anyone calls you a nigger, don t notice them. ” But the more shetalked, the less was I reassured, and I stopped her by asking:“Well, mother, amI white? Are you white? ” She answered tremblingly: “No, I am not white, but yourfather is one of the greatest men in the country. The best blood of the South is inyou.” This suddenly opened up in my heart a fresh fear, and I almost fiercely demanded:“Who is my father? Where is he?” She stroked my hair and said: “Ill tell youabout him some day.” I sobbed: “I want to know now.” She answered: “No, not now.”21. We can infer from the passage that “a nigger ”means_.A. a white person B. a black personC. anyone that is not white D. anyone that is not black22. When the teacher asked him to sit down and rise with the others, the author wasconfused because_.A. he never considered himself a non-white personB. he thought the teacher didnt recognize himC. he thought he should be consideredD. he thought it rude for the teacher to call his name23. It was on that day that he began to realize that _.A. he was a niggerB. he was different from others because of his beautyC. his color was like that of his motherD. he differed from other white people even with his beauty24. From the passage we can learn that _.A. the boys father left them for some reasonsB. the boys mother didnt want to mention his father at allC. the boy never met his father beforeD. the boys mother hated his father25.This passage generally tells us a story of _.A. a boy who suddenly realized that he was a colored personB. a boy who had been looked down upon because he had no fatherC. the miserable life of colored peopleD. the life of a one-parent familyPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. For Americans, time is a“resource” that, like water or coal, can be used wellor poorly. “Time is money,” they say. “You only get so much time in this life;youd best use it wisely.” The future will not be better than the past or the presentunless people use their time fro constructive, future-oriented activities. Thus,Americans admire a “well-organized” person, one who has a written list of thingsto do and a schedule for doing them. The ideal person is punctual and treasures otherpeoples time. The American attitude towards time is not necessarily shared by others, especiallynon-Europeans. They are more likely to consider time as something that is simply therearound them, not something they can“use”. One of the more difficult things manyforeign businessmen and students must adjust to in the States is the notion that time32005 年 10 月自考英语（二）must be saved whenever possible and used wisely every day.In their efforts to use their time wisely, Americans are sometimes seen by foreignvisitors as automatons, unhuman creatures who are so tied to their clocks and theirschedules that they cannot participate in or enjoy the human interactions that arethe truly important things in life. “They are like little machines running around,”one foreign visitor said.The emphasis Americans place on efficiency is closely related to their conceptsof the future, change and time. To do something efficiently is to do it in the waythat is quickest and requires the smallest investment of resources. Americanbusinesses sometimes hire “efficiency experts” to review their operations andsuggest ways in which they could accomplish more than they are currently accomplishingwith the resources they are investing. Popular periodicals carry suggestions for moreefficient ways to clean house, raise children, tend the yard, and so on.In this context the “fast-food industry” can be seen as a clear example of anAmerican cultural product. McDonalds, Kentucky Fried Chicken, Pizza Hut, and otherfast-food establishments prosper in a country where many people want to minimize theamount of time they spend preparing and eating meals. The millions of Americans whotake their meals at fast-food restaurants cannot have much interest in lingering overtheir food while conversing with friends, as millions of Europeans do. As McDonalds restaurants have spread around the world, they have been viewed as symbols ofAmerican society and culture, bringing not just hamburgers but an emphasis on speed,efficiency, and shiny cleanliness. The typical American food, some observers argue,is fast food.26. If a person treasures other peoples time, he .A. does not waste peoples time with conversation or activity that has nobeneficial outcomeB. does not believe the future will be any better than the present or the pastC. likes to deep a written schedule of the daily activities with himD. likes to have his meals at the fast-food restaurants to save time27. In the eyes of the foreign visitors in the States, American people .A. think that time is always there which needs budgetingB. enjoy saving and using time wisely everydayC. are indifferent in that they are like feelingless machinesD. are so fully engaged that they are unable to enjoy the important things in life28. What is the job of an efficiency expert?A. Writing articles for periodicals.B. Recommending ways of efficient investment.C. Examining the quality of a companys products.D. Teaching people how to take care of their yard.29. Which of the following can be inferred from the last paragraph?A. Many Americans love having meals at fast-food restaurants.B. Americans are busier than other people in the world.C. The American fast-food industry helps spread the American culture around theworld.D. The United States is the father of the worlds fast-food industry.30. The best title for this passage is .A. The American Concept of Time42005 年 10 月自考英语（二）B. The Development of the American Fast Food IndustryC. How to Raise EfficiencyD. The American Food and CulturePassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.It is difficult to estimate the number of youngsters involved in home schooling,where children are not sent to school and receive their formal education from oneor both parents. Legislation and court decisions have make it legally possible inmost states for parents to educate their children at home, and each year more peopletake advantage of that opportunity.Supporters of home education claim that it is less expensive and far moreefficient than mass public education. Moreover they quote several merits: reliefofschool overcrowding, added curricularand pedagogical (课程和教学法) alternatives,strengthened family relationships, lower dropout rates, increased motivation, higherstandardized test scores, and reduced discipline problems. Supporters of homeschooling also believe that it provides the parents with the opportunity to reinforcetheir moral values through education.Critics of home schooling movement claim that it creates as many problems asit solves. They acknowledge that, in a few cases, home schooling offers educationalopportunities superior to those found in most public schools, but few parents canprovide such educational advantages. Some parents who withdraw their children formthe schools in favor of home schooling have an inadequate educational background andinsufficient formal training to provide a satisfactory education for their children.Typically, parents have fewer, not more technological resources available than doschools. However, the relatively inexpensive computer technology that is readilyavailable today is causing some to challenge the notion that home schooling is inany way not so good as more highly structured classroom education.Finally, a sociological (社会学) concern is the restricted social interactionexperienced by children who are educatedat home. Technology will never replace thepupil-teacher relationship. Also, while relationships with parents and brothers andsisters may be improved, children taught at home may develop a distorted ( 歪曲的)view of society.31. The main idea of the passage is that .A. more and more parents are in favor of home schoolingB. home schooling is superior to school education because it has been legallyapprovedC. though home schooling has its advantages, it creates as many new problems atthe same timeD. school education is no doubt better than home education32. Those who support home schooling think that .A. its less expensive and more efficient apart from other meritsB. it has added curricular and pedagogical alternativesC. it will cause fewer discipline problemsD. its more important to reinforce moral values33. Critics believe that .A. few parents can afford computers and technology when providing home education52005 年 10 月自考英语（二）B. few parents are qualified enough to provide a satisfactory home educationC. school teachers are better than parentsD. classroom environment can provide most satisfactory education34. According to the author, home schooling cannot help children .A. acquire social knowledgeB. build up a relationship with family membersC. build up pupil-teacher relationshipD. develop a right view of society35. The attitude of the author toward home schooling is .A. vagueB. positiveC. totally negativeD. straight-forwardPART TWOPART TWO（50 POINTS50 POINTS）IV.

Reading Comprehension (30 points, 2 points each)Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Many of todays most trusted sales techniques were invented over a century ago bya young merchant named Eaton in Toronto. When he was young, Eaton worked briefly withhis brothers in small-town stores. In 1869, he sep up his own shop in downtown Toronto.He had many competitors, but he was also ambitious and had a plan for success. Heoffered a unique style of trade, but as was expected, all the other shopkeepers laughedat him, believing he would eventually fail. However, Eaton was not a man to be easilydefeated; he came up with a brand new notion of business - Goods satisfactory, ormoney refunded. He sold all his goods at fixed prices and only for cash.With a sharp sense of what the public wanted, he went out of the way to meet theirneeds. His business grew rapidly. He set up new branches and started mail order servicethat allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.Eatons list-advertisements of his day-was the first of its kind. It was distributedand read all over the country. It was the only way to access good-quality goods atreasonable prices for people living far away from big cites. It became part of theirlife. They even called it The Wishing Book. The secret of the lists success was thatEaton gained the respect of this customers; they trusted him for good prices andquality goods. Probably because he remembered his miserable early days in Ireland,Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees: better working conditions, shorterweekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off in the summer. In allthis, he was a leader.21.

Wealthy countries will have toprovide hundreds ofmillions of dollars for the testing and productionof medicinesnecessary for treating patients suffering from bird flu.Developing countries,particularly in Southeast Asia, where the bird flu virus (病毒) has spread since 1997,must work out special programs so that farmers will not hide sighs of possibleoutbreaks. In addition, the way such farm birds as chickens and ducks aretraditionally raised and marketed in the developing world should be changed; thereshould be more distance between the birds and their keepers. Countries should dealwith the disease with joint effort. If one country is inadequately prepared, it willbe a threat to every other country.The potential effects of a national outbreak of bird flu are enormous. Firstly, anoutbreak may kill large numbers of people. World Health Organization (WHO) estimatesthat an outbreak similar to the mild Hong Kong flu of 1968 could kill as many as 7.4millions people. If it were as dangerous as the 1918 Spanish flu, which killed 50million, the number would be much higher. Secondly, such an outbreak may cause greatfinancial damage. The latest outbreak of bird flu, which began in December 2003, hascost Southeast Asia more than $10 billion and depressed its GDP by 1.5 percent. Ifa new outbreak of bird flu were to last for a whole year, $800 billion would be lost.Despite the 124 human cases and 63 deaths from bird flu since December 2003, the virusremains mainly a disease animals. However, the more animals that die of the disease,the more chances it has of spreading to people. Large numbers of dead or dying birdsmean that more people will be exposed to the virus and change into a virus with newcharacteristics. If the international community works together efficiently, man cansurely prevent such a virus and possibly save millions of lives.26. Faced with the threat of a global outbreak of bird flu, the international communityshould _.A. establish new marketsB. work together effectivelyC. stop birds from flying to other countriesD. raise fewer chickens and ducks27. The second paragraph focuses on _.A. World Health OrganizationB. flus in Hong Kong and SpainC. the economy of Southeast AsiaD. possible effects of a bird flu outbreak28. The number of people who have died of bird flu since 2003 is _.A. 63B. 124C. 7.4 millionD. 50 million29. In the third paragraph, the author is mainly interested in _.212005 年 10 月英语（二）A. stimulating financial growthB. reducing economic damagesC. saving human livesD. protecting bird species30. The passage deals with all the following aspects bird flu EXCEPT _.A. the origin and history of bird fluB. the importance of international cooperationC. the possible dangers of a national outbreakD. the significance of preventing it from spreadingPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.The long summer holidays are finally over and some parents are pleased. We worrymore about their safety in the holidays, explains one mother from North London. Ifteenagers are not wandering around on public transport in a big and potentiallydangerous city, they are chatting to strangers in an internet chat room! Well, thatsan extreme picture of the UK today, but many parents are worried about how much freedomthey can give their children during the holidays and at weekends.Weekends are not the only time to worry! Newspaper are full of stories about too manyschool kids going to school by car because their parents do not want them to travelalone on a bus or train. This summer there were more frightening stories of teenagersdisappearing with questionable friends that they met on the net.

Young people today have more opportunities to meet new peopleand go out at night more than their parents ever did.

However, teaching is not necessarilythe area of a special group of people, nor should it be looked upon as a technical232005 年 10 月英语（二）skill. Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing information intoa blank mind. If you have a certain skill, you should be able to share it with others.You do not have to get a certificate to convey what you know to them or to help themin their attempt to teach themselves. All of us, from the very youngest children tothe oldest members of our society, should come to realize our own talent and abilitiesas teachers. We can share what we know, however little it might be, with others whohave need of that knowledge or skill.20062006 年年 4 4 月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试英语（二）答案英语（二）答案（课程代码：（课程代码：0001500015）I.

Reading ComprehensionPassage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money. But mostmistakes are about people. Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen? WhenI got that great job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envymy luck? Why didnt I realize that Paul was friendly just because I had a car?When we look back, doubts like these can make up feel bad. But when we look back,its too late.Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hidestheir real meaning. If we dont really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you, Youre a lucky dog. Is he really on your side? If hesays, Youre a lucky boy or Youre a lucky girl, thats being friendly. But theresa bit of envy in lucky dog. Maybe he doesnt see it himself. But bringing in thedog bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesnt think youdeserve your luck.Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for is another noise that saysone thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to262005 年 10 月英语（二）see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phraseis the thought that your problem isnt important. Its telling you to think of allthe starving people in the world when you havent got a date for Saturday night.How can you tell the real meaning behind someones words? One way is to take a goodlook at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says squarewith the tone of voice? His gesture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you manysave another mistake.21. According to the writer, when people look back it is too late, because .A. mistakes have already been madeB. mistakes can made them feelbadC. they are unaware of their mistakesD. they are doubtful oftheir friends22. People make mistakes when they fail toA. deal with others with due friendlinessB. hide their truefeelings in what they sayC. realize they deserve what they have gotD. see the real meaning ofwhat others say23. Judging from the phrase just think of all the things you have to be thankfulfor, it is clear that the speaker actually lacks .A. optimismB. sympathyC. motivationD.courage24. To be a successful listener, one is advised to1. A.ask the speaker as many questions as he can2. B.observe the speaker as carefully as possible3. C.listen to the speaker as attentively as he can4. D.challenge the speaker as actively as possible25. The passage aims to tell readers how to .A. interpret what people sayB. interpret what money meansC. avoid mistakes about peopleD. avoid mistakes about moneyPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Doctors have long known that eating fish helps protect against heart disease. Whatthey dont know is why fish are beneficial. For years they figured it was a simplequestion of substitution: folks who replace red meat with fish are naturally cuttingdown their intake of saturated (饱和的) fat. But a growing body of evidence collectedover the past 30 years suggests fish contain healthful elements called omega-3 fattyacids.Omega-3 fatty acids belong to a group of compounds known as polyunsaturated fats.These fats serve as the raw material for a whole host of essential structures in thebody, from brain cells to molecules (分子) that regulate blood pressure.Since our bodies cannot manufacture their own supply of omega-3s, we have to get themfrom the food we eat, mostly from fish but also from plant sources like soybeans (大豆).The American Heart Association has recommended that everyone eat two 85-g servingsof fatty fish a week. But the A.H.As expert panel wasnt ready to declare that takingomega-3 pills will protect your heart. Its just too easy to get more omega-3 than272005 年 10 月英语（二）you need from pills, and the panel was worried that an excess could cause seriousside effects, such as internal bleeding.The U.S. Food and Drug Administration, however, allowed manufactures of omega-3 pillsand fish oils to advertise the fats benefits-as long as the label does not suggesttaking more than two grams per day.One thing is clear whether you get your omega-3s from pills, oils or fish: they arenot cure-alls. You still have to eat a well-balanced diet thats lower in total fatthan most Americans currently consume. Otherwise, youre fishing for trouble.26. Doctors have long been puzzled by .A. why red meat is harmfulB. how beneficial fish areC. what makes fish healthfulD. how red meat is replaced27. We can learn from the passage that .A. human beings get omega-3s from their foodB. omega-3s are only found in fish and soybeansC. omega-3s are the raw material for saturated fatsD.polyunsaturated fats constitute human molecules28. The A.H.A. didnt recommend omega-3 pills, becauseA. it had no knowledge of the safe dose of omega-3B. it had no evidence that they can protect the heartC. the pills contain too little omega-3 to be helpfulD.one is likely to get too much omega-3 from the pills29. The FDA allowed manufacturers of omega-3 pills and fish oils to advertiseomega-3s benefits on condition thatA. their suggested dose is printed on the labelB. their suggested dose is within the safety limitC. the fats potential side effects are mentionedD.the products contain side effects are mentioned30. The writer seems to suggest thatA. omega-3s can balance ones dietB. omega-3s can serve as a supplementC. an unbalanced diet is made worse by omega-3sD.a well-balanced diet contains enough omega-3sPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.It was a terrible tragedy, six times more deadly than the Titanic (泰坦尼克号). Whenthe German ship Wilhelm Gustloff was hit by torpedoes ( 鱼雷) fired from a Russiansubmarine (潜水艇) in the final winter of World War II, more than 10,000people-mostly women, children and old people fleeing the finalRed Army pushintoGermany-were packed aboard. An ice storm had turned the dicks into frozen sheets thatsent hundreds of families sliding into sea as the ship listed and began to go down.Others desperately tried to putlifeboats down. Somewho succeeded foughtoff thosein the water who had the strength to try to get aboard. Most people froze immediately.Ill never forget the screams, says Christa Nutzmann, 87, one of the 1,200 survivors.She recalls watching the ship, brightly lit, slipping into its dark grave-and rarelymentioned for more than half a century.The long silence about the sinking of the Wilhelm Gustloff was probablyunavoidable-and necessary. By unreservedly confessing their countrys horrible282005 年 10 月英语（二）crimes Germans have managed to win acceptance abroadand make peace with theirneighbors. Todays unified Germany is more prosperous and stable than at any timein its long, troubled history. For that, a half century of willful forgetting aboutpainful memories like the German Titanic was perhaps a reasonable price to pay. Buteven the most politically correctGermans believe thattheyve now earned the rightto discuss the full historical record. Not to identify German suffering with thatof its victims, but simply to acknowledge a terrible tragedy.31. The Wilhelm Gustloff went down becauseA. it ran into an ice stormB. it was hit by another shipC. it crashed into a submarineD.it was attacked by torpedoes32. Most passengers on board the Wilhelm Gustloff took the voyage toA. taste the luxury of the shipB. seek protection in another placeC. escape the cold winter back homeD.enjoy their holidays abroad33. As the ship began to sink, some passengersA. set the decks on fire as a signal for helpB. fought fiercely on the decks for lifeboatsC. jumped into sea and swam to a nearby shipD.prevented others from getting on their lifeboats34. The Wilhelm Gustloff tragedy remains a near secret for more than half a centurybecause GermansA. preferred to say nothing about itB. were requested to keep silent about itC. spared not effort to cover up the storyD.were denied access to the whole story35. It can be inferred from the passage that Germans no longer think thatA. it is too early to claim responsibility for the Wilhelm Gustloff tragedyB. the German tragedy is a reasonable price to pay for the nations pastC. they will be misunderstood if they talk about the German tragedyD.Germany is responsible for the horrors it caused during World War II第二部分 非选择题IV.

Between labor and play stands work. A man is a worker if he is personally interestedin the job which society pays him to do; what from the point of view of society isnecessary labor is from his own point of view voluntary play. Whether a job is tobe classified as labor or work depends, not on the job itself, but on the tastes ofthe individual who undertakes it. The difference does not, for example, coincide withthe difference between a manual and a mental job; a gardener or a cobbler may be aworker, a bank clerk a laborer. Which a man is can be seen from his attitude towardleisure. To a worker, leisure means simply the hour he needs to relax and rest inorder to work efficiently. He is therefore more likely to take too little leisurethan too much; workers die of coronaries and forget their wives birthdays. To thelaborer, on the other hand, leisure means freedom from compulsion, so that it isnatural for him to imagine that the fewer hours he has to spend laboring, and themore hours he is free to play, the better.20062006 年年 1010 月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试英语（二）答案英语（二）答案（课程代码：（课程代码：0001500015）I.

On being asked hisopinion, he said, Capital punishment and life imprisonment are equally immoral. IfI were to make a choice between them, I would rather choose the latter Anyway, itsbetter to live than not to live at all.A lively discussion followed. A banker, who was then younger and more nervous thanthe lawyer, suddenly lost his temper and cried out, Its a lie. I bet you twomillion .You wouldnt stick in a cell even for five years.If you mean it, replied the young lawyer, I bet Ill stay there longer; make itfifteen instead of five.Fifteen!

The idea that you have the right to free yourself any momentwill poison your life in the cell. I pity you.And now the banker, pacing from comer to comer, recalled all this and asked himself,Why did I make this bet? Whats the good? The lawyer lost fifteen years of hi lifeand I threw away two millions. Will it convince people that capital punishment isworse or better than imprisonment for life? No, no! Rubbish!

It is a very common belief that theproblems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poorcountries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction. This is not true. Theactual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have onnature. Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is thepopulations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.For example, tropical forests are known to be essential to the balance of nature,yet we are destroying them at a great rate. They are being cleared not to benefitthe natives of that country, but to satisfy the needs of rich countries. CentralAmerican forests are being destroyed for grassland to make pet food in the UnitedStates cheaper; in Papua slew Guinea, forests are destroyed to supply cheapercardboard packaging for Japanese electronic products; in Burma and Thailand, forestshave been destroyed to produce more attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong.Therefore, a rich person living thousands of miles away may cause more tropical forestdestruction than a poor person living in the forest itself.In short, it is everybodys duty to safeguard the future of mankindnot only throughpopulation control, but by being more aware of the effect his actions have on nature.Nature is both fragile and powerful. It is very easily destroyed; on the other hand,it can easily destroy its most dangerous enemyman.31.According to the first paragraph, people usually believe that .A.poor people in poor countries contribute to the imbalance of natureB. rich people know how to protect the environment by taking actionsC. people in poor areas know a lot about the birth controlD. rich people in rich countries have done a lot to balance nature32. In the authors opinion, _.A. developing countries should be responsible for environmental problemsB. overpopulation in the world is created by the developed countriesC. rich countries exercise worse influence on environment than poor countriesD. all countries should bring the population growth under control362005 年 10 月英语（二）33. The purpose of the second paragraph is mainly to illustrate _.A. how the forests in the U. S. are being destroyedB. which countries are the victims of the imbalance of natureC.what Japan has done to develop its own economyD. how South Asian countries make quality furniture34. Nature is very easily destroyed by _.A. rich peopleB. poor peopleC. natural disastersD. mankind35. The topic of the passage is that _.A.the control of population is essential to the development of a nationB.natural resources are important to the economic development of a countryC.awareness of the effects of mans actions is as important as population controlD. developed countries should do more to protect natural environment on the earthIV.

How often one hears children wishing they were grown up, and old people wishingthey were young again. Each age has its pleasures and its pains, and the happiestperson is the one who enjoys what each age gives him without wasting his time in uselessregrets. Childhood is a time when there are few responsibilities. If a child has goodparents, he is well fed, looked after and loved. It is unlikely that he will everagain in his life be given so much without having to do anything in return. In addition,life is always presenting new things to the child-things that have lost their interestfor older people because they are too well known. A child finds pleasure in playing432005 年 10 月英语（二）in the rain, or in the snow. His first visit to the seaside is a marvelous adventure Buta child has his pains：he is not so free to do as he wishes as he thinks older peopleare; he is continually being told what to do and what not to doTherefore, a childis not happy as he wishes to be. When the young man starts to earn his own living, he becomes free from thedisciplineofschoolandparents;butatthesametimeheisforcedtoacceptresponsibilities. With no one to pay for his food, his clothes, or his room,he has to work if he wants to live comfortably. If he spends most of his time playingabout in the way that he used to as a child, he will go hungry. And if he breaks thelaws of society as he used to break the laws of his parents, he may get himself intotrouble. If, however, he works hard, goes by the law and has good health, he may feelsatisfied in seeing himself make steady progress in his job and in building up forhimself his own position in society. Old age has always been thought of as the worst age to be; but it is not necessaryfor the old to be unhappy. With old age comes wisdom and the ability to help otherswith advice wisely given. The old can have the joy of seeing their children makingprogress in life; they can watch their grandchildren growing up around them; and,perhaps best of all, they can, if their life has been a useful one, feel the happinessof having come through the battle of life safely and of having reached a time whenthey can lie back and rest, leaving everything to others.21The happiest people should be those whoAface up to difficulties in lifeBhope to be young againCenjoy life in different agesDwish to be grown up22The word “they” in Line 5，Para. 2 refers toAolder peopleBnew thingsCchildrenDinterests23 A child has his pains because442005 年 10 月英语（二）Ahe can not do whatever he wants toBhe is not allowed to play in rainChe has a lot of new things to learnD. he can not play at the seaside freely24When a child becomes a grown-up, he is supposed toAlive comfortablyBtake responsibilitiesCmake progress in jobDimpress the society25The best title of the passage might beAPains and AgesBDifferences in AgesCThe Best Age to BeDHappiness and Ages Passage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage. We all know that humans are damaging the environment, but what can we do aboutit? Some people are trying to do their bit to be more environmentally friendly. Local councils in Britain encourage certain aspects of green living, such asrecycling paper, tin, plastic and glass. They want to reduce the amount of rubbishgoing into landfill sites （填埋场） ，because they are running out of places to dump（倾倒）rubbish. In some areas rubbish for recycling is collected from your doorstep,but in other areas, you have to take it to a special recycling place, such as a bottlebank. Another way of reducing the amount of rubbish you create is to use reusable productsinstead of disposable ones For example, some people use strong shopping bags or boxesfor their groceries instead of plastic carrier bags, or use washable nappies insteadof disposables.More people are becoming interested in reducing their carbon footprintthe amountof carbon they use up.They try toreduce their carbon emissions（释放）by cycling,using public transport or an electric car, rather than driving gas-consuming vehicles.452005 年 10 月英语（二）Some people choose not to fly for holiday trips because planes are the biggestproducers of carbon emissions. You can make green choices when buyingfood too. Its bestto buy foodwhichwas locally grown or produced so that it hasnt been imported by air, or shipped byroad from far away. Houses can be environmentally friendly too. It takes less energy to heat a houseif it has good insulation （绝缘，隔热）and double glazing ( 双层玻璃） You can alsocreate your own energy it you have solar panels or a wind turbine fitted though thesecan be expensive. You can also save water by using a rain water container for washingthe car or watering the garden. Its even possible to use a system wheregrey waterwater which has been through a tap（水龙头）once already, is used to flush（冲洗）toilets. Some new housing projects are being built specifically to be asenvironmentally friendly as possible.26The purpose of collecting reusable wastes is to Asave energy consumed in daily life Breduce the amount of rubbish dumped Ccreate a new way of green living Ddecrease the amount of carbon produced27In order to cut down on the carbon emission, more people choose to travel Aby electric car, bicycle or plane Bby private car, bicycle or bus Cby bus, electric car or plane Dby bicycle, bus or electric car28It is best for people to buy foodwhen makinggreen choices.Aproduced locallyBimported abroadCtransported by roadDgrown in green houses29As mentioned,grey water can be used to，Awash the carBwater the garden462005 年 10 月英语（二）Cclean the toiletDdispose of wastes30The passage is intended to advise peopleAto make use of rubbishBto save energy and waterCto recycle reusable productsDto have a green livingPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Americans are a very energetic and mobile people, always on the run; rushing fromone appointment to another, from a PTA (Parent Teacher Association) meeting to asocial planning committee. They have very little time to spend preparing elaborate（精致的，复杂的）everyday meals to be eaten at leisure. In many homes it is rarefor the whole family to sit down at supper together. Clubs and committees force themto grab a quick meal rather than a sit-down supper.When they do have the chance to eat at home, often the working housewife prefers toprepare meals that can be quickly heated and consumed. It is no wonder, therefore,that America has become a shelter for fast food consumption. This great transformation occurred after World War when many women began towork full time and spend less time at home with their families. Women, however, wantedto function well in the capacity of homemaker, as well as that of career woman buttime became a precious commodity（商品）which had to be carefully used. Therefore, it was necessary to make her life easier at home in the preparationof the family dinner. Simultaneously with women entering the job market there wasalso a shifting of the focus of home entertainment from the radio to the television.Television became the latest fashion in the 1950s and no one wanted to miss his orher favorite programs. And then, the place for supper shifted from the dining roomto the living room. As the customs changed, so did the culture. The immediate solution for this wasthe invention of the TV dinner. These were frozen meals which were divided intoportions of meat and vegetables. They could easily be put into an oven （锅） and prepared472005 年 10 月英语（二）within minutes. The tin trays（托盘）in which they were served were convenientlycarried into the living room and dinner was consumed in front of a TV set. Cleaningup afterwards was no problem. The tin trays were easily thrown into the garbage. From fast dinners at home the next step was quick eating while on the road. Lovefor TV was combined with the fascination for the automobile. It is not odd that withthe development of the superhighwaysAmerica saw thebeginning of fastfood chains.McDonalds paved the way with its variety of burgers and cold drinks soon to befollowed by all kinds of other foods. Today dozens of fast-food chain stores can befound along highways, in modern shopping malls and scattered throughout neighborhoodsin America. Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Roy Rogers, Burger King and Wendys are just afew of the fast-food chains which are now part of American culture They offer chicken,donuts, tacos and pizza, all quickly produced in great quantities for the masses.These establishments have given shape to the modern lifestyles and diet of theAmerican people.31In America, the whole family seldom have dinner together at home becauseAthey have so many social activitiesBthey have a lot of meetings to attendCthey rush from one appointment to anotherDthey often move from one place to another32America has become a shelter for fast food consumption becauseAsome women are engaged in entertainmentsBfew women are able to make meals at homeCwomen are unwilling to cook for their familiesDmany women are mostly occupied with work33The passage tells that nowadays Americans have their supperAin the dinning roomBin the living roomCin the grocery storesDin the fast food chains34The word “establishments” in the last paragraph probably meansAfast foods482005 年 10 月英语（二）BTV dinnersCshopping mallsDsnack bars35The main idea of the passage is about.Awomens role in American familiesBadvantages of fast food for AmericansCmodern lifestyles and diet in AmericaDshift of American home entertainmentPART TWO（50 POINTS）IvWord Spelling (10 points, 1 point for two items)将下列汉语单词译成英语。每个单词的词类、首字母及字母数目均已给出。请将完整的单词写在答题纸上。36.角力，摔跤 vi w_ _ _ _ _ _ 37打哈欠 vi. y_ _ _38天气，气象 n. w_ _ _ _ _ _ 39志愿者，志愿兵 n.

In fact,scientists who studynoisesay that the average noise level in New York is 72. 5 decibels. This is a littlelouder than normal conversation,which is 65 decibels. The noise level is theresultof so many people and cars in the same area.Now even the insides of taxis are noisy. When you get into a taxi,you hear thevoiceof a wellknown singer,sports reporter,or Broadway actress giving instructions.Thatt right. The voice of a famous person tells you what to do. One popularsingergives this message:“Cats have nine lives,but you have only one,so fasten yourseatbelt!”Other voices say things such as“Dont forget to collect all yourbelongings. ”（People often leave hats,umbrellas,and bags in taxis. ）There is a good reason for the messages. There are more than 12,000 cabs in NewYork,and every year taxis get into more than 15,000 accidents. In an652005 年 10 月英语（二）accident,peoplewho dont wear seat belts hit the partition,the glass wall separating the driverand passengers in the taxi. They can hurt their foreheads or break their nosesorchins. Every year,about 11,000 people are injured in this way.Many people are annoyed by the voices. Cabdrivers in particular dislike themessages. “I play the messages 12 hours a day. I hear the same voices 60 timesaday. It makes me crazy,”says Amir,a 45yearold cabdriver. “But if I dont playthemessages,I get fined 100. ”A lot of passengers complain,too. “Its too muchnoise,”says a passenger. “I asked the driver to turn off the message,but hesaidhe cant. ”Other people think the voices are a great idea. One taxi driver says,“Peopleliketo hear the famous voices,and they put on their seat belts more often. ”Andpassengers from out of town really like the idea. “Most of the time,taxi driversare in a bad mood,”says Melanie Benton,who visits New York often onbusiness,“Its nice to hear a cheerful voice when you get into a cab. ”(1).The sentence“Cats have nine lives,but you have only one”impliesthat_.(A).(B).(C).(D).human beings have only one lifecats live longer than human beingscats will have new lives after they diehuman beings should value their lives(2).People who are most likely to be injured in a taxi accident are_.(A).those who wear seat belts(B).those who like messages(C).those who do not wear seat belts(D).those who dislike messages(3).It can be inferred from the passage that a taxi driver hears the samevoices_every day.(A).(B).(C).(D).about 5 times an hourabout 6 times an hourabout 50 times an hourabout 60 times an hour662005 年 10 月英语（二）(4).The cabdrivers play the messages again and again because_.(A).they are willing to do so(B).they do not want to pay a fine(C).the passengers ask them to do so(D).the voice of the messages is cheerful(5).The author of this passage seems to believe that_.(A).New York is the noisiest city in the U.

However,when Fathers Day was firstsuggested in the early 1900s,Fathers Day cards hadnt been invented yet.The idea of celebrating Fathers Day was actually inspired by Mothers Day.In1909,Mothers Day was just becoming very popular in the United States. Oneday,Sonora Dodd,of Spokane,Washington,was listening to a church talk aboutsettingaside a day to honor ones mother. It gave her the idea to propose a day tohonorfathers,and in particular,her own fatherWilliam Jackson Smart.Mr. Smart had raised Sonora and her five brothers and sisters all by himselfafterSonoras mother died in childbirth. As an adult,Sonora realized theselflessnessher father had shown in raising his children as a single parent. Her father madeallthe parental sacrifices. In the daughters eyes,her father was acourageous,selfless,and loving man.Mrs. Dodd went to her minister and others about having a church service devotedtofathers on June 5,her fathers birthday. That date was too soon for her minister toprepare a service,so he spoke two weeks later on June 19. It took about a yearof672005 年 10 月英语（二）working with politicians,religious leaders,businessmen and the local Young MensChristian Association to bring life to her idea of an annual Fathers Day.Eventually all her hard work paid off. On June 19,1910,the firs t Fathers Daywascelebrated in Spokane,Washington.In 1972 President Richard Nixon established a permanent national celebrationofFathers Day to be held on the third Sunday in June. Since then,fathers havebeenhonored and recognized by their families throughout the U. S. on that date.Fathers Day has become a day to not only honor your father,but all men whoact asa father figure. Stepfathers,uncles,grandfathers,and adult male friends are allhonored on Fathers Day. Its also another day for greeti ng card companiesandshop owners to celebrate because sales of the most popular gifts forDad（shirts,ties,and electric shavers）increase considerably.(1).The passage mainly tells about_.(A).Mrs. Dodds love for her father(B).the origin and establishment of Fathers Day(C).the importance of honoring fathers in the U. S.(D).Mrs. Dodds contribution to the government decision(2).Mrs. Dodd loved her father because he_.(A).had a large family(B).was a single parent(C).was a respected minister(D).was courageous,selfless and loving(3).In the United States,the first Fathers Day was celebrated nationwidein_.(A).(B).(C).(D).1972191019091900(4).The author of the passage seems to believe that_.(A).stepfathers should not be honored on Fathers Day(B).Fathers Day has nothing to do with Mothers Day(C).Fathers Day started with Mrs. Dodds love for her father(D).card companies should not make money on Fathers Day cards682005 年 10 月英语（二）(5).Greeting card companies welcome Fathers Day because_.(A).their sale increases(B).it is a national holiday(C).adult male friends are also honored(D).they can sell ties,shirts and electric shavers3.This green and blue planet spinning in space is under severe stress. Ifwecontinue to exploit the planet at the present rate,human and animal life willbethreatened. Human pride will be followed by natures punishment. To save ourearthand ourselves,we need first develop an unbiased understanding ofourselves,natureand life.Everyone understands the meaning of the sentence“Man should respect animal lifeandnature”. But the exact meaning of man,nature and animal life is not alwaysclear.Many refer to man and animals as if they were essentially different. I considermanto be an animal and only differing in degree and not in kind from other animals.Although I discuss in conventional terms human rights and animal rights as iftheywere separate,strictly speaking,human rights should be considered a branch ofanimalrights.The word“nature”is one of the most complex words in the language,but it hasdeveloped three main areas of meaning. These are,first,the essential qualityandcharacter of something（as in human nature,or the nature of wood ）;second,theinherent force which influences the world （as in Mother Nature） ;third,the entireworld itself. The last can be taken to include or to exclude human beings,asthephrase man and the natural world implies.I consider humans to be an integral part of nature, although they are also thebeings most capable of interfering with its processes. Unfortunately a centraldrive of Western“man”has been to conquer“nature”, as if it were an objectseparate from him. Hence it has become common to distinguish between what isnatural（existing without mans interference）and artificial（manmade）. Inthis692005 年 10 月英语（二）way, natural growth is opposed to education, civilization to the natural state.Formany urban people living permanently among concrete and glass, nature itselfhascome to mean little more than the countryside. And this notion of oppositioniswhere the seed of potential destruction lies.(1).The word“unbiased”in Line 4 of Para. 1 means _.(A).unbalanced(B).fair(C).partial(D).unreasonable(2).As for the relationship between man and animals, the author holds that_.(A).(B).(C).(D).man is a kind of animalsman is superior to animalsman is the same as animalsman and animals are essentially different from each other(3).The word“they”in Line 6 of Para. 2 refers to _.(A).human rights(B).animal rights(C).human beings and animals(D).human rights and animal rights(4).In the authors opinion, the word“nature”indicates _.(A).a particular kind of thing(B).the inherent force which influences the world(C).the entire world itself including human beings(D).the essential quality and character of something(5).The very last sentence of the passage implies that _.(A).urbanization violates the peace of the countryside(B).the people in the cities cannot enjoy the natures beauty(C).man cannot destroy nature, as they are different from each other(D).if man goes against nature, the world will probably be destroyed四、Word Spelling（10 points,1 point for two items）将下列汉语单词译成英语。每个单词的词类、首字母及字母数目均已给出。请将完整的单词写在答题卡上。702005 年 10 月英语（二）1.使活动，使起作用vt. a_ _ _ _ _ _ _2.令人厌烦的a. b_ _ _ _ _3.总结，概述v. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _4.争论，辩论n. d_ _ _ _ _5.相反的a. c_ _ _ _ _ _ _6.网络；网状物n. n_ _ _ _ _ _7.明显的a. e_ _ _ _ _ _8.凋谢，枯萎，退色vi. f_ _ _9.种族的a. r_ _ _ _ _10.和谐；协调n. h_ _ _ _ _ _11.满意，满足n. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _12.身份；同一n. i_ _ _ _ _ _ _13.解释，下定义vt. d_ _ _ _ _14.面试，口试，采访vt. i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _15.社会学n. s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _16.谦虚的；适中的a. m_ _ _ _ _17.旅行，行程n. j_ _ _ _ _ _18.拥有者n. o_ _ _ _19.描绘，描写，描述vt. p_ _ _ _ _ _20.拥有，具有vt. p_ _ _ _ _ _712005 年 10 月英语（二）五、Word Form（10 points,1 point for each item）将括号中的各词变为适当的形式填入空白。答案写在答题卡上。1.Their new advertising campaign has been very _ （success）.2.For the _ （secure）of passengers, all hand baggage is carefullychecked.3.The _ （resolve）calling for a ban on nuclear tests was passed byatwothirds majority in the Congress.4.Untrained and nervous, she is nevertheless _ （pride） anddetermined.5.It is best to write about things you have experienced _（person）.6.The government is planning to _ （simple）the tax laws.7.We regard cheating in exams as totally _ （acceptable）.8.Studies show that if workers have short but frequent breaks they will becomemore _ （product）.9.The minister was under great _ （press）to resign.10.This is an _ （exception）case; Ive never seen anything like itbefore.六、Translation from Chinese into English （15 points,3 points for eachitem）将下列各句译成英语并将答案写在答题卡上。1.由于发生了强烈地震，这个地区的交通中断了。2.这就是我们去年开会的地方。3.我如果不是在忙着找工作，也许就来看望你了。.4.为了通过英语考试，他不得不熬夜复习。722005 年 10 月英语（二）5.只有这样你才能找到一份高薪水的工作。七、Translation from English into Chinese（15 points）将下列短文译成汉语并将答案写在答题卡上。1.Many people think an only child islucky because ofthe material goodsandattention he or she receives.

But first, they have to know how. They may find the followingadvice interesting and instructive.Encourage free drawing rather than coloring books. Coloring books stop thepossibility of selfexpression. A child may just enjoy colorful pictures and772005 年 10 月英语（二）neverlearn how to express himself. As an art teacher says, “Children have a verypowerful instinct to draw freely and roughly. Such practice makes them learnlanguage easily.” In fact, a child expresses himself in rough drawing. Thisis thebeginning of literacy and creativity. Also, parents should not teach theirkids“how” to draw and they should not make their kids draw realistic picturestoentertain themselves. Experience tells us that such teaching from the parentswilldiscourage children, making them think they cant do it the “right”way.Competition and rewards should also be avoided in the process of artisticcreation.A childs natural instinct to create will disappear if he or she thinks aboutprizewhile drawing.Parents should be role models for their kids. They should not say things like,“Icant draw a straight line.”Instead, they should learn to say,“I love tocreate.”This teaches children that the process of creation is more importantthanthe product. If children see their parents drawing, cooking or buildingcreatively,they will do the same.Buy a notebook for your child to use every day. This can be a journal for makingupstories, writing ideas and drawing pictures. Even the youngest child can useit to draw freely and roughly, expressing himself. Take your child to places that promote ideas and creativity. Art museums, sciencecenters, libraries and childrens museums all are great places to see otherpeoplescreativity. That will inspire children to make their own creations andinventions.Give children choices and free time. Some of the best ideas come from daydreamingand imagining.In short, parents should allow their kids to have the freedom to invent forthemselves. That means not always teaching and commanding.(1).To develop their artistic creativity, children should be encouragedto_.(A).draw freely and roughly(B).learn to draw realistic pictures782005 年 10 月英语（二）(C).know how to draw before they start(D).learn to draw good pictures to get prizes答案：A(2).Parents are encouraged to be role models for their kids because .(A).parents love to create(B).parents can draw straight lines(C).children tend to follow their parents examples(D).children like the product of their parents creativity答案：C(3).It can be inferred from the passage that in artistic creation .(A).product is more important than process(B).process is more important than product(C).process and product are equally important(D).both process and product are unimportant答案：B(4).To be inspired by other peoples creativity,children should .(A).write ideas(B).make up stories(C).buy good notebooks(D).visit museums, libraries, and science centers答案：D(5).The main idea of this passage is that .(A).children should be encouraged to draw freely(B).children should follow their parents examples(C).parents should know how to cultivate their kids creativity(D).most parents teach their kids confidently and instructively答案：C2.It is often said that politeness costs nothing. In fact, it seems that alittlemore politeness could save businesses 5 billion every year. Frequentlyhearing thephrase“thank you” or “well done” means the same to staff as a modest payrise. Praise and encouragement also makes employees more likely to work hard and stayintheir jobs. In this way the business companies can save the cost of finding newemployees. A third of 1,000 workers surveyed by a consulting firm said they didnotget thanked at all when they did well and a further third said they were notthanked enough. In both cases, staff said they felt undervalued, meaning theywereless likely to exert themselves andwere more likelyto look for employment792005 年 10 月英语（二）elsewhere.The result of the survey shows that there would be around 52 billion loss inproductivity if the employees felt less appreciated. According to the firm,praisingstaff has the same positive effect as a 1 per cent pay riseand works out muchcheaper for bosses. Three out of four employees said that regularacknowledgement bytheir bosses was important to them, but only a quarter said they were actuallygivenas much praise as they felt they needed.The survey found that those in bluecollar and manual jobs were less likely tobegiven any recognition for doing well. But it seems that they most need suchpraise.In regional terms, Scottish staff felt most undervalued.

He then dippedaspoon into it and put some honey on the cover of a small book.The little girl had just turned five.Stand up, little one, he asked the girl softly.I did this for your mother,your uncles, your older brother, and now you!Then, he handed the book to her.Taste!She touched the honey with her finger and put it into her mouth.Whats that taste? the grandpa asked.The little girl answered,Sweet!Then all of the family said in a single voice, Yes, and so is knowledge, butknowledge is from the bee that made that sweet honey, you have to go after itthrough the pages of a book!The little girl knew that the promise to read was at last hers.

The child learning to read is admitted into a collective memory by way of books.Andwith the printed words that are active with meaning, the child becomes acquaintedwith a common past which he or she renews, to a greater or lesser degree, ineveryreading. Much as the author of the book Thank You, Mr. Falker puts it,“Almostas ifit were magic, or as if light poured into her brain, the words and sentencesstartedto take shape on the page as they never had beforeAnd she understood the wholethingThen she went into the living room and found the book on a shelf, theverybook that her grandpa had shown her so many years ago. She spooned honey on thecover and tasted the sweetnessThen she held the book, honey and all, closeto herchest.

In 1994,however,hedecided to leave the city restaurant scene and seek a quiet life in the country, wherehe has been preparing meals on his farm two hours borth of Toronto and asks gueststo bring their own wine.Not long ago, Stadlander was charged with selling liquer without a licence, Hesaid when a guest asked for wine at a dinner in December, he provided two bottlesfrom his private stock.But the customer turned out to be an undercover OntarioProvincial Police(OPP)officer who returned a few days later along with four armedofficers to seize 83 bottles of wine,and to search the farmhouse for records. Thepunishment could run as high as $100,000 in fines and a year in jail.When Mr and Mrs Smisth arrived at the farm on a weekend befre Christmas, theysaid that it was their annual celebrstion and asked if they could get somewine.Nobuyo,Stadtlanders wife,told them the policy was thar guests peovide theirown.Given the occasion, though, Stadtlander agreed to provide a bottle of white wieefrom own cellar,at cost,as a favor, Later, Mr Smith asked for a second bottle anda detailed receipt that included the price of thr wine.He turned out to be OPPDetective Paul Smith and “his wife,”an assistant who went as a witness.“I was shocked, ”Nobuyo Stadtlander recalls. ”How could thy do this to us whenwe did them a favor?We sold them our wine at our cost.”.But Mr.Smith say,” No.theymade $20.”Stadtlander is determined to prove his innocence and continue the business.“People who live in the area have been very supportive, ” he says.”And when thisis over,I want my wine back.”21.Stadtlander was accused because_.A. be offered too much wine for a guestB. be asked guests to bring their own wine982005 年 10 月英语（二）C. be charged too much for the wine offeredD. be sold wise to his guests without a license22.In the 1980s,Stadtlander_.A. threw his original restaurant menu into the fineB. made his restaurant well-known around the worldC. sought for a quiet life in the central part of the cityD. opened one resyaurant after another home and abroad.23.IT turned out that Mr. and Mrs. Smith were_.A. two farmersB. two witnesecs C. hasbend and wife D. police officers24.Nobuy Studtlander claimed that in the wine case they made_.A.$1.20 B. no money C.$100,000 D. a lot of money25.Which of the following could be used as evidence against Stadtlander?A. What Stadtlanders wife saidB. The second bottle of wineC. The records from the farmhouse.D.A receipt with the wine price.Passage TwoQuestions26 to 30 are based on the following passage.A recent study shows that sixteen out of every 100 American couoles have violentconfrontations of one sort or another during the course of a year. In six of thesecases there is severe kicking, biting, punching or hitting with objects. Almost fourof every 100 wives are seriously beaten by their husbands. three of every 100 childrenare kicked or punched by their parents. More than a third of all brothers and sistersseverely attack each other.As expected, the incidence of violence is highest among the urban poor (many ofthem minoroties).blue-collar workers, people under 20 or without religious beliefs,families with a husband who is jobless and those with four to six children. But thestudy also showed that violence occurs among wealthy families as well. Indeed, thewife of a university president once quietly called Straus, one of the sociologistswho conducted the study, to ask what she could do about her husband, who often beather. Straus suggested seeking assistance from marriage advisors.Steaus and his colleagues found out that there are various root causes that giverise to such behavior. “ The reason are mixed psychological, sociological,situational,” says Straus.“The husband, for example, may feel under particularstress because be has been out of work too long. Violence may also be an echo of thepast,” Straus explains.“When Mummy gives her two-year-old a slap（巴掌）for puttingsomething dirty in his mouth, he is learning from infancy that those who love youhit you.” Another reason may be the worsening economic situations. “If we have areal economos decline, Its going to get worse,” economic situations.“If we havea real economic declines,its going to get worse,” says Gelles, one of Straus”colleagues.These sociologists have no easy answer to violence in the American family. Whilethey welcome such move as the opening of shelters for beaten wives and theestablishment of a National Center for Child Abuse and Neglect, they belive that theremust be more basic attack on vilolence,including the reduction of “macho” （大男子主义）themes on the television,the outlawing of physical punishment in schools and992005 年 10 月英语（二）perhaps even the wlimination of death senernces.As Straus explains, “Volence is anacceptable solution to problems in American society,And that is how it is used infamilies.26.Which of the following statements is true?A. More than a third of brothers attack sisters in American families.B. Almost four percent of husbands are seriously beaten by their wives.C. Six out of one hundred couples experience severe domestic violence.D.

If the phone senses that the user is busyfor instance, involved in aconversationit might block an incoming calland turn it onto voicemail.The phonewould send back a text message saying the user is unavailable, but advising that idthe matter is urgent the caller can try again in three minutes. If a call from thesame person came in again, the phone would put it through.The researchers are interested in four basic different states busy and not tobe interrupted, physically active, idle,and“normal.” Most people are said to changebetween these states,an average of 6 to 12 times a day.Professor Asim Smailagic, a leading member of the Carnegic Mellon team, told The1002005 年 10 月英语（二）Engineer magazine.”Todays computers are pretty dumb compared with the device. Wegot to work at the beginning of May and since then have been improving it. The nextstage is to make it smarter, adding various intellingence systems so it can learnabout the user.

To them adisability was physical, something you could see. They knew her as a happy, normal child. Thats how it is with alearning disability -you dont see obvious physical symptoms.But as she grew out of preschool, she would pretend to read-I knew she was pretending because the bookwas upside down. She withdrew into her own world where she could fantasize about being a ballet dancer, aBroadway actress or a figure skater. In the real world, ballet classes and music lessons led only to confusion,frustration and, ultimately, disappointment.As for school, there was no way she could be included in a mainstream classroom. I went through everyspecial school in New York, only to be told over and over: She doesnt belong here. The last blow came a fewmonths after the diagnosis, when I was at a pay phone on 72nd Street, waiting for an answer from the very lastschool on my list. Finally a cold voice came on-I can still hear it-and said: Im sorry, but we feel this isnt theplace for her. I hung up and stared at the phone in tears.I had lived my life as the daughter of Henry Ford II, and for the first time in my life I faced a problem thatneither money nor position could solve. I nearly gave up, but I knew I couldnt. Without me, my daughter stood nochance of making it.21 .According to the first paragraph, Allegras problem was_ .A. psychologicalB. obviousC. physical106D. invisible22. Allegra was disabled in that_.2005 年 10 月英语（二）A. she was unable to learn like a normal childB. she was always reading with her book upside downC. she isolated herself from other children in her classD. she was living in her dreams in conflict with the real world23 .The expression a mainstream classroom(para. 3) refers, to_.A. the last blowC. special schoolsB. the last schoolD. normal education24. It can be inferred from the last paragraph that_.A. the author would ask Henry Ford II for helpB. the author would continue to help her daughterC. the author would leave New York for the sake of her daughterD. the author had to use money or position to deal with the problem25.The phrase making it (para. 4) probably means_.A. becoming a figure skaterC. becoming successfulPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Contrary to what many people believe, highly intelligent children are not necessarily bound to have anacademic success. In fact, so-called gifted students may fail to do well because they are unusually smart. Ensuringthat a gifted child reaches his or her potential requires an understanding of what can go wrong and how to satisfythe unusual learning requirements of extremely bright young people.One common problem gifted kids face is that they, and those around them, place too much importance onbeing smart. Such an emphasis can breed a belief that bright people do not have to work hard to do well. Althoughsmart kids may not need to work hard in the lower grades when the work is easy, they may struggle and performpoorly when the work gets harder because they do not make the effort to learn. In some cases, they may not knowhow to study, having never done it before. In others, they simply cannot accept the fact that some tasks requireeffort.If the scholastic achievement of highly intelligent children remains below average for an extended period,many teachers will fail to recognize their potential. As a result, such students may not get the encouragement theyneed, and may further be depressed to learn. They may fall far behind in their schoolwork and even developbehavior problems. Boys may turn aggressive or become class clowns （小丑）.Girls often develop performanceanxiety and other symptoms such as stomachaches.One way to avoid such difficulties is to recognize that IQ is just one of the elements for success. Children dowell or struggle in school for a host of reasons apart from IQ, according to psychologist Franz Monks of theUniversity of Nijmegen in the Netherlands. These include motivation and persistence, social competence, and thesupport of family, educators and friends. Emphasizing the importance of persistence and hard work, for example,107B. becoming a ballet dancerD. getting proper treatment2005 年 10 月英语（二）will help a child avoid the laziness trap. Gifted children also need intellectual challenges-to teach them how towork hard.26. According to the first paragraph, the author believes that_.A. intelligent students may fail to do well in their schoolworkB. gifted students are too smart to do well in their schoolworkC. intelligent students are bound to succeed in their schoolworkD. gifted students understand what can go wrong and how to learn27. When too much emphasis is placed on students intelligence, people are likely to take it for granted that_.A. smart students may not do well in the lower gradesB. intelligent students know how to avoid laziness trapC. clever students require more intelligence than hard workD. bright students may succeed even if they do not work hard28. It is observed in the third paragraph that_.A. highly gifted students show a great desire to learnB. highly gifted students tend to fall ill with no reasonC. highly intelligent students also need encouragementD. highly intelligent students score higher than average students29. According to the author, a students IQ is_.A. one of the factors of successB. the only factor for his successC. directly related to persistenceD. closely associated with competence30. This passage aims to tell people about_.A. the academic performance of gifted studentsB. the proper attitudes toward gifted studentsC. the difficulties in recognizing gifted studentsD. the motivation students need for their studiesPassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Mars Global Surveyor is the oldest of five NASA robotic devices, which is designed to find out signs thatMars once had water; and it had been taking detailed pictures of the red planetfor a decade. Unfortunately, itstopped working on November 2 after it developed a motor problem.After two days of silence, ground control teams received a signal that the device had put itself into anemergency standby mode. There was no information about what had gone wrong. Since then, the mission team atNASAs laboratory in California has tried to contact the device. This week, NASA engineers are preparing forwhat may be their last chance to recover the spacecraft.1082005 年 10 月英语（二）NASA plans to use a newly arrived device to take a picture of the Surveyor to see how the failed craft isoriented to the sun for power and to Earth for communications. It is reported that the picture will be taken onFriday when the satellites are about 93 miles apart. The new high-powered camera should be able to image detailsof the Surveyor as small as about 10 centimeters. There is a good chance of recovering it.Flight controllers also plan to try to get the Surveyor to contact one or both of NASAs roving （漫游） geologystations, Spirit and Opportunity, which are located on opposite sides o. Marsequator （赤道） .The rovers would notbe able to transmit the spacecraft5 science data, but engineers at least would get an idea of its general position.The linkup also could show if the Surveyor still has power. If the device has been unable to charge its batteriesdue to a positioning problem or failed component, it could run out of power with no hope of recovering. But if ithas power, the device is quite capable of autonomous control even if it doesnt hear from Earth. The Surveyor hasfar surpassed its design lifetime, but scientists still have more targets for the probes camera and scienceinstruments.31. The main task of Mars Global Surveyor is_.A. to take pictures of the red planetB. to work out the problems of its motorC. to find out if there was water on MarsD. to find the causes of the failure in the device32. The newly arrived device_.A. is equipped with a powerful cameraB. checks the signs for water on the red planetC. carries new components for the failed deviceD. examines the surveyors communication system33. The last chance for NASAs engineers to recover the Surveyor might be_.A. to charge its batteriesB. to adjust its positionC. to test its communication systemD. to use the new device to image it34. The decisive factor for the recovery of the Surveyor is_.A. its lifeB. its orbitC. its powerD. its position35. The passage is most probably taken from_.A. a book reviewB. a news reportC. an advertisementD. a science fiction taleIVIV. Word Spelling (10 points, 1 point for two words).

At the same time,86 percent of college graduates still felt the investment was agood one for them.There are a number of reasons for the widespread dissatisfaction with college. First, there are plenty ofproblems with higher educationpoor quality and out-of-control costs are two of the biggest，Second， it is truethat college is not for everyoneThere are plenty of rewarding and important careers that do not requirecollegeAnd due to the slow economy，there may in fact be more graduates than the current job marketneeds Besides， anti-college sentiment is nothing new Today， Microsofts Bill Gates or Apples Steve Jobsbothcollege dropouts-is often held up as evidence of why all that time sitting in class is better spent elsewhere However，getting a college education is still a good ideaCollege graduates earn more，and are more likely tohave a job in the first placeAccording to the statistics last year，the average weekly earnings for someone withsome college but no degree were$712，compared to$1，038 for a college graduateThat is almost$17，000 overthe course of a year and there is an even bigger divide for those with less educationMeanwhile，theunemployment rate was 9.2 percent for those with only some college and more than 10 percent for those with justa middle school degree，but it was 5.4 percent for college graduatesThe economic gaps between collegecompleters and those with less education are getting largerAlthough most Americans surveyed by Pew feel doubtful about the value of a college degree ，anoverwhelming majority of parents Pew surveyed still expect their children to go to college “It call be inferred thatthe increased doubt has not significantly influenced decision making，Pews Taylor says “Despite the concernabout rising costs and other problems，college remains a universal desire in this country”21Recently many Americans question_Athe value of a college degreeBthe ability of college graduatesCthe quality of college educationDthe high cost of higher education22The passage tells US that Bill Gates was_Aa self-taught college studentBa hardworking undergraduateCa successful college dropoutDa successful college graduate23The writer seems to agree that_Athere is no need to go to collegeBanticollege sentiment is a new thingCcollege cannot guarantee employmentDcollege education remains a wise choice24The unemployment rate for college graduates last Year was_ A5.4B7.1C9.2D1025The Pew survey implies that_1142005 年 10 月英语（二）Athe cost of college education will decreaseBmost Americans still favor college educationCthe quality of college education will improveDincreased doubt affects parentsdecision makingPassage TwoPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passageQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passageA major sociological（社会学的）theory known as symbolic interactionism（符号互动论）offers some important clarification of how men and women are taught to fill different roles insocietyThe key concept in symbolic interactionism is that communication makes a big difference in behavior ：people act on the basis of messages they receive from others，and how they understand those messages. This canbe seen in a concept developed by sociologist Charles Horton Cooley known as the looking-glass self By the looking-glass self，Cooley meant the self-image that each of us develops according to the messageswe receive from others；we think and behave according to our understanding of those messagesIf, for example，ayoung girl is repeatedly told that she is pretty, she will come to believe that （1）she is in fact pretty，and（2）being pretty is an important thing in her lifeSimilarly，if she is told that she is not good（or not expected to begood）at certain things（such as math） she will come to believe that she is not good at such things and wouldbetter off working at things she can be successful atThe likely product is a young woman who devotes a greatdeal of attention to her appearance，regards being pretty as a key to success in life，and who is intimidated byanything involving numbersSince we know that young girls are given messages like these，and that young boys are given differentmessages， we can see a good part of how sex roles are taught There is little or no evidence of differences in whatyoung girls and young girls and boys can do，but the older children become，the greater the differences in theareas in which boys and girls are likely to stand out.26Symbolic interactionism helps to explain_Ahow to make a difference in peoples social behaviorBhow to make people understand different social rolesChow men and women learn to communicate in societyDhow men and women learn to take different social roles27The“looking-glass selfconcept offers a clue as to_Awhether one can improve ones self-imageBwhether one is likely to succeed in an areaChow one receives different social messagesDhow social messages shape ones self-image28The example of the young girl shows that_Awomen care more about appearanceBwomen are inferior to men in numbersCpeople are liable to social expectationsDpeople regard looks as a key to Success29The phrase “better off（para.2）probably means-Amore comfortableBmore dependableCmore respectableDmore reasonable30Boys and girls are likely to stand out in different areas_Aas they advance in ageBas they grow in wisdomCas their interests diversifyDas their capacities developPassage ThreePassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passageQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passageSince the beginning of the Internet era，it has been widely accepted that when you join an online company，whatever data you put into it belongs to youThat means you can sign up for one kind of email，import your contacts into that system，and if you laterdecide to switch to some other email service，you canexport all your contacts from the first service into1152005 年 10 月英语（二）the new oneYou can use Microsoft s Hotmail，then move to Yahoo Mail，then to Googles GmailOr you canhave accounts on three services and keep all your contacts in each oneThat the way things were until Facebook appeared. Facebook took a different approach Until recently,everything you put into Facebook could not be exported anywhere.
