四拆:就是把单词拆分成几个有效的记忆单元

五分:单词去掉一、两个字母,成为认识的单词,就要用五分的方法

第一部分  英译汉全真试题(1994-2004年)
Passage 1

   According to the new school of scientists, technology is an overlooked force in expanding the horizons of scientific knowledge. 71) Science moves forward, they say, not so much through the insights of great men of genius as because of more ordinary things like improved techniques and tools.72) "In short", a leader of the new school contends, "the scientific revolution, as we call it, was largely the improvement and invention and use of a series of instruments that expanded the reach of science in innumerable directions." 73) Over the years, tools and technology themselves as a source of fundamental innovation have largely been ignored by historians and philosophers of science. The modern school that hails technology argues that such masters as Galileo, Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, and inventors such as Edison attached great importance to, and derived great benefit from, craft information and technological devices of different kinds that were usable in scientific experiments. The centerpiece of the argument of a technology-yes, genius-no advocate was an analysis of Galileo's role at the start of the scientific revolution. The wisdom of the day was derived from Ptolemy, an astronomer of the second century, whose elaborate system of the sky put Earth at the center of all heavenly motions. 74) Galileo's greatest glory was that in 1609 he was the first person to turn the newly invented telescope on the heavens to prove that the planets revolve around the sun rather than around the Earth. But the real hero of the story, according to the new school of scientists, was the long evolution in the improvement of machinery for making eyeglasses.
    Federal policy is necessarily involved in the technology vs. genius dispute. 75) Whether the Government should increase the financing of pure science at the expense of technology or vice versa often depends on the issue of which is seen as the driving force.
                                        Passage 2

    The standardized educational or psychological tests that are widely used to aid in selecting, classifying, assigning, or promoting students, employees, and military personnel have been the target of recent attacks in books, magazines, the daily press, and even in congress. 71) The target is wrong, for in attacking the tests, critics divert attention from the fault that lies with ill-informed or incompetent users. The tests themselves are merely tools, with characteristics that can be measured with reasonable precision under specified conditions. Whether the results will be valuable, meaningless, or even misleading depends partly upon the tool itself but largely upon the user.
    All informed predictions of future performance are based upon some knowledge of relevant past performance: school grades research productive, sales records, or whatever is appropriate. 72) How well the predictions will be validated by later performance depends upon the amount, reliability, and appropriateness of the information used and on the skill and wisdom with which it is interpreted. Anyone who keeps careful score knows that the information available is always incomplete and that the predictions are always subject to error.
    Standardized tests should be considered in this context. They provide a quick, objective method of getting some kids of information about what a person learned, the skills he has developed, or the kinds of person he is. The information so obtained has, qualitatively, the same advantages and shortcomings as other kinds of information. 73) Whether to use tests, other kinds of information, or both in a particular situation depends, therefore, upon the evidence from experience concerning comparative validity and upon such factors as cost and availability.
    74) In general, the tests work most effectively when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively when what is to be measured or predicted can not be well defined. Properly used, they provide a rapid means of getting comparable information about many people. Sometimes they identify students whose high potential has not been previously recognized, but there are many things they do not do. 75. For example, they do not compensate for gross social inequality, and thus do not tell how able an underprivileged youngster might have been had he grown up under more favorable circumstances.






                                        Passage3
    The differences in relative growth of various areas of scientific research have several causes. 71) Some of these causes are completely reasonable results of social needs. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating. Some, however, are less reasonable processes of different growth in which preconceptions of the form scientific theory ought to take, by persons in authority, act to alter the growth pattern of different areas. This is a new problem probably not yet unavoidable; but it is a frightening trend. 72) This trend began during the Second World War, when several governments came to the conclusion that the specific demands that a government wants to make of its scientific establishment cannot generally be foreseen in detail. It can be predicted, however, that from time to time questions will arise which will require specific scientific answers. It is therefore generally valuable to treat the scientific establishment as a resource or machine tomb kept in functional order. 73) This seems mostly effectively done by supporting a certain amount of research not related to immediate goals but of possible consequence in the future.
    This kind of support, like all government support, requires decisions about the appropriate recipients of funds. Decisions based on utility as opposed to lack of utility are straightforward. But a decision among projects none of which has immediate utility is more difficult. The goal of the supporting agencies is the praisable one of supporting "good " as opposed to "bad" science, but a valid determination is difficult to make. Generally, the idea of good science tends to become confused with the capacity of the field in question to generate an elegant theory. 74) However, the world is so made that elegant systems are in principle unable to deal with some of the world's more fascinating and delightful aspects. 75) New forms of thought as well as new subjects for thought must arise in the future as they have in the past, giving rise to new standards of elegance.











                                       Passage 4
    Do animals have rights? This is how the question is usually put. It sounds like a useful, ground-clearing way to start. 71) Actually, it isn't, because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights, which is something the world does not have.
    On one view of rights, to be sure, it necessarily follows that animals have none. 72) Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract, as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements. Therefore, animals cannot have rights. The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd; for exactly the same reason, so is the idea that tigers have rights. However, this is only one account, and by no means an uncontested one. It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people — for instance, to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations. In addition, it is unclear what force a contract can have for people who never consented to it: how do you reply to somebody who says "I don't like this contract"?
    The point is this without agreement on the rights of people, arguing about the rights of animals is fruitless. 73) It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset: it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consideration humans extend to other humans, or with no consideration at all. This is a false choice. Better to start with another, more fundamental, question: is the way we treat animals a moral issue at all?
    Many deny it. 74) Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect, extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice. Any regard for the suffering of animals is seen as a mistake — a sentimental displacement of feeling that should properly be directed to other humans.
    This view, which holds that torturing a monkey is morally equivalent to chopping wood, may seem bravely "logical". In fact it is simply shallow: the confused centre is right to reject it. The most elementary form of moral reasoning—the ethical equivalent of learning to crawl — is to weigh others' interests against one's own. This in turn requires sympathy and imagination: without which there is no capacity for moral thought. To see an animal in pain is enough, for most, to engage sympathy. 75) When that happens, it is not a mistake: it is mankind's instinct for moral reasoning in action, an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.






                                      Passage 5
    They were, by far, the largest and most distant objects that scientists had ever detected: a strip of enormous cosmic clouds some 15 billion light-years from earth. 71) But even more important, it was the farthest that scientists had been able to look into the past, for what they were seeing were the patterns and structures that existed 15 billion years ago. That was just about the moment that the universe was born. What the researchers found was at once both amazing and expected; the US National Aeronautics and Space Administration's Cosmic Background Explorer satellite — Cobe — had discovered landmark evidence that the universe did in fact begin with the primeval explosion that has become known as the Big Bang (the theory that the universe originated in an explosion from a single mass of energy.)
    72) The existence of the giant clouds was virtually required for the Big Bang, first put forward in the 1920s, to maintain its reign as the dominant explanation of the cosmos. According to the theory, the universe burst into being as a submicroscopic, unimaginable dense knot of pure energy that flew outward in all directions, emitting radiation as it went, condensing into particles and then into atoms of gas. Over billions of years, the gas was compressed by gravity into galaxies, stars, plants and eventually, even humans.
    Cobe is designed to see just the biggest structures, but astronomers would like to see much smaller hot spots as well, the seeds of local objects like clusters and superclusters of galaxies. They shouldn't have long to wait. 73) Astrophysicists working with groundbased detectors at the South Pole and balloon-borne instruments are closing in on such structures, and may report their findings soon.
    74) If the small hot spots look as expected, that will be a triumph for yet another scientific idea, a refinement of the Big Bang called the inflationary universe theory. Inflation says that very early on, the universe expanded in size by more than a trillion trillion trillion trillionfold in much less than a second, propelled by a sort of antigravity. 75) Odd though it sounds, cosmic inflation is a scientifically plausible consequence of some respected ideas in elementary-particle physics, and many astrophysicists have been convinced for the better part of a decade that it is true.








                                           Passage 6
    71) While there are almost as many definitions of history as there are historians, modern practice most closely conforms to one that sees history as the attempt to recreate and explain the significant events of the past. Caught in the web of its own tune and place, each generation of historians determines anew what is significant for it in the past. In this search the evidence found is always incomplete and scattered; it is also frequently partial or partisan. The irony of the historian's craft is that its practitioners always know that their efforts are but contributions to an unending process.
    72)        Interest in historical methods has arisen less through external challenge to the validity of history as an intellectual discipline and more from internal quarrels among historians themselves. While history once revered its affinity to literature and philosophy, the emerging social sciences seemed to afford greater opportunities for asking new questions and providing rewarding approaches to an understanding of the past. Social science methodologies had to be adapted to a discipline governed by the primacy of historical sources rather than the imperatives of the contemporary world. 73) During this transfer, traditional historical methods were augmented by additional methodologies designed to interpret the new forms of evidence in the historical study.
    Methodolgy is a term that remains inherently ambiguous in the historical profession. 74) There is no agreement whether methodology refers to the concepts peculiar to historical work in general or to the research techniques appropriate to the various branches of historical inquiry. Historians, especially those so blinded by their research interests that they have been accused of "tunnel method," frequently fall victim to the "technicist fallacy." Also common in the natural sciences, the technicist fallacy mistakenly identifies the discipline as a whole with certain parts of its technical implementation. 75) It applies equally to traditional historians who view history as only the external and internal criticism of sources, and to social science historians who equate their activity with specific techniques.











                                       Passage 7
    Governments throughout the world act on the assumption that the welfare of their people depends largely on the economic strength and wealth of the community. 71) Under modern conditions, this requires varying measures of centralized control and hence the help of specialized scientists such as economists and operational research experts. 72) Furthermore, it is obvious that the strength of a country' s economy is directly bound up with the efficiency of its agriculture and industry, and that this in turn rests upon the efforts of scientists and technologists of all kinds. It also means that governments are increasingly compelled to interfere in these sectors in order to step up production and ensure that it is utilized to the best advantage. For example, they may encourage research in various ways including the setting up of their own research centers; they may alter the structure of education, or interfere in order to reduce the wastage of natural resources or tap resources hitherto unexploited; or they may cooperate directly in the growing number of international projects related to science, economics and industry. In any case, all such interventions are heavily dependent on scientific advice and also scientific and technological manpower of all kinds.
    73) Owing to the remarkable development in mass-communications, people everywhere are feeling new wants and are being exposed to new customs and ideas, while governments are often forced to introduce still further innovations for the reasons given above. At the same time the normal rate of social change throughout the world is taking place at a vastly accelerated speed compared with the past. For example, 74) in the early industrialized countries of Europe the process of industrialization — with all the far-reaching changes in social patterns that followed — was spread over nearly a century, whereas nowadays a developing nation may undergo the same process in a decade or so. All this has the effect of building up unusual pressures and tensions within the community and consequently presents serious problems for the governments concerned. 75) Additional social stresses may also occur because of the population explosion or problems arising from mass migration movements — themselves made relatively easy nowadays by modern means of transport. As a result of all these factors, governments are becoming increasingly dependent on biologists and social scientists for planning the appropriate programs and putting them into effect.






                                           Passage 8
    In less than 30 years' time the Star Trek holodeck will be a reality. Direct links between the brain' s nervous system and a computer will also create full sensory virtual environments, allowing virtual vacations like those in the film Total Recall.
    71) There will be television chat shows hosted by robots, and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them when they offend. 72) Children will play with dolls equipped with personality chips, computers with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates rather than tools, relaxation will be in front of smell-television, and digital age will have arrived.
    According to BT' s futurologist, Ian Pearson, these are among the developments scheduled for the first few decades of the new millennium (a period of 1,000 years), when supercomputers will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life.
    73) Pearson has pieced together the work of hundreds of researchers around the world to produce a unique millennium technology calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place. Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine, including an extended life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs coming into use between now and 2040.
    Pearson also predicts a breakthrough in computer-human links. "By linking directly to our nervous system, computers could pick up what we feel and, hopefully, simulate feeling too so that we can start to develop full sensory environments, rather like the holidays in Total Recall or the Star Trek holodeck," he says. 74) But that, Pearson points out, is only the start of man-machine integration: "It will be the beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next century."
    Through his research, Pearson is able to put dates to most of the breakthroughs that can be predicted. However, there are still no forecasts for when faster-than-light travel will be available, or when human cloning will be perfected, or when time travel will be possible. But he does expect social problems as a result of technological advances. A boom in neighborhood surveillance cameras will, for example, cause problems in 2010, while the arrival of synthetic lifelike robots will mean people may not be able to distinguish between their human friends and the droids. 75) And home appliances will also become so smart that controlling and operating them will result in the breakout of a new psychological disorder — kitchen rage.




                                     Passage 9
    Almost all our major problems involve human behavior, and they cannot be solved by physical and biological technology alone. What is needed is a technology of behavior, but we have been slow to develop the science from which such a technology might be drawn. 61) One difficulty is that almost all of what is called behavioral science continues to trace behavior to states of mind, feelings, traits of character, human nature, and so on. Physics and biology once followed similar practices and advanced only when they discarded them. 62) The behavioral sciences have been slow to change partly because the explanatory items often seem to be directly observed and partly because other kinds of explanations have been hard to find. The environment is obviously important, but its role has remained obscure. It does not push or pull, it selects, and this function is difficult to discover and analyze. 63) The role of natural selection in evolution was formulated only a little more than a hundred years ago, and the selective role of the environment in shaping and maintaining the behavior of the individual is only beginning to be recognized and studied. As the interaction between organism and environment has come to be understood, however, effects once assigned to states of mind, feelings, and traits are beginning to be traced to accessible conditions, and a technology of behavior may therefore become available. It will not solve our problems, however, until it replaces traditional prescientific views, and these are strongly entrenched. Freedom and dignity illustrate the difficulty. 64) They are the possessions of the autonomous (self-governing) man of traditional theory, and they are essential to practices in which a person is held responsible for his conduct and given credit for his achievements. A scientific analysis shifts both the responsibility and the achievement to the environment. It also raises questions concerning "values". Who will use a technology and to what ends? 65) Until these issues are resolved, a technology of behavior will continue to be rejected, and with it possibly the only way to solve our problems.











                                         Passage 10
    Human beings in all times and places think about their world and wonder at their place in it. Humans are thoughtful and creative, possessed of insatiable curiosity. (61) Furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies. Therefore, it is important to study humans in all their richness and diversity in a calm and systematic manner, with the hope that the knowledge resulting from such studies can lead humans to a more harmonious way of living with themselves and with all other life forms on this planet Earth.
    "Anthropology" derives from the Greek words anthropos "human" and logos "the study of." By its very name, anthropology encompasses the study of all humankind.
    Anthropology is one of the social sciences. (62) Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly, systematic, and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.
    Social science disciplines include geography, economics, political science, psychology, and sociology. Each of these social sciences has a subfield or specialization which lies particularly close to anthropology.
    All the social sciences focus upon the study of humanity. Anthropology is a field-study oriented discipline which makes extensive use of the comparative method in analysis. (63) The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.
    Anthropological analyses rest heavily upon the concept of culture. Sir Edward Tylor's formulation of the concept of culture was one of the great intellectual achievements of 19th century science. (64) Tylor defined culture as "... that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society." This insight, so profound in its simplicity, opened up an entirely new way of perceiving and understanding human life. Implicit within Tylor's definition is the concept that culture is learned, shared, and patterned behavior.
    (65) Thus, the anthropological concept of "culture," like the concept of "set" in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.



                                    Passage 11
    The relation of language and mind has interested philosophers for many centuries. (61) The Greeks assumed that the structure of language had some connection with the process of thought, which took root in Europe long before people realized how diverse languages could be.
    Only recently did linguists begin the serious study of languages that were very different from their own. Two anthropologist-linguists, Franz Boas Edward Sapir, were pioneers in describing many native languages of North and South America during the first half of the twentieth century. (62) We are obliged to them because some of these languages have since vanished, as the peoples who spoke them died out or became assimilated and lost their native languages. Other linguists in the earlier part of this century, however, who were less eager to deal with bizarre data from "exotic" language, were not always so grateful. (63) The newly described languages were often so strikingly different from the well studied languages of Europe and Southeast Asia that some scholars even accused Boas and Sapir of fabricating their data. Native American languages are indeed different, so much so in fact that Navajo could be used by the US military as a code during World War II to send secret messages.
    Sapir's pupil, Benjamin Lee Whorf, continued the study of American Indian languages. (64) Being interested in the relationship of language and thought, Whorf developed the idea that the structure of language determines the structure of habitual thought ma society. He reasoned that because the structure of habitual thought in a society. He reasoned that because it is easier to formulate certain concepts and not others in a given language, the speakers of that language think along one track and not along another. (65) Whorf came to believe in a sort of linguistic determinism which, in its strongest form, states that language imprisons the mind, and that the grammatical patterns in a language can produce far-reaching consequences for the culture of a society. Later, this idea became to be known as the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis, but this term is somewhat inappropriate. Although both Sapir and Whorf emphasized the diversity of languages , Sapir himself never explicitly supported the notion of linguistic determinism.

                                     Passage 1
Directions: Read the following passage carefully and then translate the underlined sentences into Chinese. (10 points)

    71) The main impression growing out of twelve years on the faculty of a medical school is that the No. 1 health problem in the U. S. today, even more than AIDS or cancer, is that Americans don't know how to think about health and illness. Our reactions are formed on the terror level. We fear the worst, expect the worst, thus invite the worst. The result is that we are becoming a nation of weaklings and hypochondriacs (自疑有病者), a self-medicating society incapable of distinguishing between casual, everyday symptoms and those that require professional attention.
    Somewhere in our early education we become addicted to the notion that pain means sickness. 72) We fail to learn that pain is the body's way of informing the mind that we are doing something wrong, not necessarily that something is wrong. We don't understand that pain may be telling us that we are eating too much or the wrong things; or that we are smoking too much or drinking too much; or that there is too much emotional congestion in our lives; or that we are being worn down by having to cope daily with overcrowded streets and highways, the pounding noise of garbage grinders, or the cosmic distance between the entrance to the airport and the departure gate, we get the message of pain all wrong. 73) Instead of addressing ourselves to the cause, we become pushovers for pills, driving the pain underground and inviting it to return with increased authority.
    74) Early in life, too, we become seized with the bizarre idea that we are constantly assaulted by invisible monsters called germs, and that we have to be on constant alert to protect ourselves against their fury. Equal emphasis, however, is not given to the presiding fact that our bodies are superbly equipped to deal with the little demons, and that the best way of forestalling an attack is to maintain a sensible life-style.
    The most significant single statement about health to appear in the medical journals during the past decade is by Dr. Franz Ingelfinger, the late and former editor of the New England Journal of Medicine. Ingelfinger noted that almost all illnesses are self-limiting. That is, the human body is capable of handling them without outside intervention. 75) The thrust of the article was that we need not feel we are helpless if disease tries to tear away at our bodies, and that we can have greater confidence in the reality of a healing system that is beautifully designed to meet most of its problems. And even when outside help is required, our own resources have something of value to offer in a combined strategy of treatment.

































                                         Passage 2
    When offices are planned the attention paid to the correct use of space, and individual and company needs, is often totally inadequate. 71) Bad planning can frustrate the manager and employee and reduce their level of performance. This is why so much research has been undertaken since the war into effective office planning.
    There is a growing realisation that investment in people means that their needs should be thoroughly analysed and provided for. It has encouraged a number of office planning approaches. 72) The best of these approaches take into account not just the physical aspects of a building but the complex individual and group relationships which need to be understood before a plan is implemented.
    A man's personal preference is always for his own separate office. Where this can be achieved it provides privacy and special advantages for him. However, it is quite uneconomic for most organisations to provide such facilities on anything but a limited scale. 73) Moreover the corporate needs for good communications, smooth exchange of ideas and paper work, and flexibility demand a different form of planning. Preoccupation with rental costs has led in the past to openplan offices which in the worst circumstances are laid out in such a regimented fashion that the atmosphere is totally impersonal.
    Nevertheless, costs must be faced realistically. Perhaps the best balance between the needs of most of the employees and the needs of the company are to be found in landscaped offices.
    Developed in Germany in the late 1950s, landscaping, or Burolandschaft as it is sometimes called, seeks to achieve good communications and information flow by the correct juxtaposition of departments. 74) Its aim is to provide a pleasing working environment for all, coupled with economic use of space and the ability on management's part to alter office layout to cope with changes in working methods.
    Ideally a floor area of not less than 6000 sq.ft.is required, generally in the form of a square or rectangle the sides of which have a ratio of less than two to one. Employees are grouped together in clusters, in accordance with a plan that takes into account work flow and desirable relationships across traditional organisational barriers. Such groups are identified and separated by movable screens. 75) An acceptable general noise level is achieved by careful acoustic control to provide aural privacy and mask intrusive noise.




                                            Passage 3
    All great writers express their ideas in an individual way: it is often possible to determine the authorship of a literary passage from the style in which it is written. 71) Many authors feel that the conventions of the written language hamper them and they use words freely, with little observance of accepted grammar and sentence structure, in order to convey vividly their feelings. beliefs and fantasies. Others with a deep respect for traditional usage achieve a style of classical clearness and perfection or achieve effects of visual or musical beauty by their mastery of existing forms enriched by a sensitive and adventurous vocabulary, vivid imagery and a blending of evocative vowels and consonants.
  Young people often feel the need to experiment and, as a result, to break away from the traditions they have been taught. In dealing with a foreign language, however, they have to bear in mind two conditions for experiment. 72) Any great experimental artist is fully familiar with the conventions from which he wishes to break free; he is capable of achievement in established forms but feels these are inadequate for the expression of his ideas. In the second place, he is indisputably an outstanding artist who has something original to express; otherwise the experiments will appear pretentious, even childish.
    Few students can achieve so intimate an understanding of a foreign language that they can explore its resources freely and experimentally. Not all feel the need to do so. 73) And in any case examination candidates need to become thoroughly acquainted with conventional usage as it is a sure knowledge of accepted forms that examiners look for.
    The student undertaking a proficiency course should have the ability to use simple English correctly to express everyday facts and ideas. 74) This ability to express oneself in a foreign language on a basis of thinking in that language without reference to one's own is essential at all stages of learning. Students with extensive experience in translation who have had little practice in using the foreign language directly must, above all, write very simply at first, using only easy constructions which they are convinced are correct, forgetting for the time being their own language and rigorously avoiding translating from it.
    More complex forms, more varied vocabulary and sentence structure should evolve naturally in step with the student's increasing knowledge of the language. The student introduces a certain form or construction only when he is thoroughly familiar with it and is certain that it is normally used in this way. As he achieves additional conidence, he can begin to take an interest in the use of the language to create diverse effects. He may want to convey impressions of suspense, calm, dignity, humour, of music or poetry. 75) He will master the art of logical explanation, of exact letter-writing, of formal speeches and natural conversation and of vivid impressionistic description. But he will still write within the limits of Ms ability and knowledge. And, as a learner, he will still be studying and observing conventional English usage in all that he writes.
































                                              Passage 4
    We usually assume that an innate characteristic of human beings is the close and immediate attachment between the newborn child and its parents, especially its mother. Because abandonment or abuse of children seems to defy such beliefs, we are baffled by reports of widespread parental abuse of children. A look at the past may provide a different perspective on the present.
    According to some scholars, maternal indifference to infants may have been typical of the Middle Ages. Aries says there is evidence that in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries parents showed little affection for their children, and Edward Shorter argues that this indifference was probably typical among the ordinary people of Western Europe, even in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. 71) The death of young children seems to have been accepted casually, and although overt infanticide was frowned upon, allowing children to die was sometimes encouraged, or at least tolerated. For example, in Western Europe it was common for mothers to leave infants at foundling hospitals or with rural wet nurses, both of which resulted in very high mortality rates. 72) Whether these practices were typically the result of economic desperation, the difficulty of raising an out-of-wedlock child, or lack of attachment to an infant is not clear, but the fact that many well-to-do married women casually chose to give their infants to wet nurses, despite the higher mortality risks, suggests that the reasons were not always economic difficulty or fear of social stigma.
    While the practice of overt infanticide and child abandonment may have been relatively widespread in parts of Western Europe, it does not seem to have been prevalent in either England or America. 73) Indeed, authorities in both those countries in the sixteenth century prosecuted infanticide cases more vigorously than other forms of murder, and the practice of leaving infants with wet nurses went out of fashion in England by the end of the eighteenth century.
    By the eighteenth century in Western Europe, parents were expressing more interest in their children and more affection for them, and by the nineteenth century, observers were beginning to criticize parents for being too child-centered. Nevertheless parents were still not prevented from abusing their own children, as long as it did not result in death. 74) Because the parent-child relationship was regarded as sacred and beyond State intervention, it was not until the late nineteenth century that reformers in England were able to persuade law makers to pass legislation to protect children from abusive parents. 75) Ironically, efforts to prevent cruelty to animals preceded those to accomplish the same ends for children by nearly a half century.



                                            Passage 5
    A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behaviour. 71) He must obtain data both on the resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.
    If an economist were asked which of the three groups borrow most — people with rising incomes, stable incomes, or declining incomes — he would probably answer, those with declining incomes. Actually, in the years 1947-1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with stable incomes were next and people with declining incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions about earning and spending are not always reliable. 72) Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they hasten to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying. One typical attitude was expressed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices. "In a few months," she said, "We'll have to pay more for meat and milk; We'll have less to spend on other things." Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. 73) Furthermore, the rise in prices that has already taken place may be resented and buyer's resistance may be evoked. This is shown by the following typical comment: "I just don' t pay these prices; they are too high.
    Traditional assumptions should be investigated carefully, and factors of time and place should be considered. The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America. 74) Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were more in agreement with traditional assumptions about saving and spending patterns. The condition most conductive to spending appears to be price stability. 75) If prices have been stable and people have been accustomed to consider them "right" and expect them to remain stable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices with occasional sales or discounts is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.








                                           Passage 6
    Aging can be defined as the progressive deterioration, with the passage of time, of the structures and functions of a mature organism. This ultimately leads to the death of the organism. 71) Either the progressive loss of function makes the organism less able to withstand infectious disease or, often, the failure of some vital organ precipitates the death of all the rest.
    Many fish and reptiles also seem to avoid, or at least inhibit, aging by continuing to grow throughout their lives. 72) We do not know just what brings on death, but it may simply be the same factors that cause death in younger members of the species: disease and predation. These challenges to life, acting in a completely random way, will eventually strike down all the members of a given generation. It is probably also true that fish and reptiles become less well adapted to their environment when they exceed a certain size. 73) In any case, the ability to grow steadily, even if slowly, does seem to protect them from the harmful effects of aging. Some marine turtles are estimated to live more than 150 years.
    Mammals, as we have seen, grow to a certain size and then stop. Some time after the cessation of growth, aging begins. The actual time span involved varies widely from species to species. A three-year-old laboratory rat is very old. 74) In man, although the deterioration associated with aging can be detected by the age of 30 years, fatal loss of function may not occur until much later.
    What are the symptoms of aging? 75) Decreased muscular strength, decreased lung capacity, decreased pumping of blood from the heart, decreased urine formation in the kidney, and decreased metabolic rate are just a few of the many body changes which occur with aging.














                                     Passage 7
    Scientists must accept facts even when they would like them to be different. 71) They must strive to distinguish between what they see and what they wish too see for humanity's capacity for self-deception is vast. People have traditionally tended to adopt general rules, beliefs, creeds, theories, and ideas without thoroughly questioning their validity and to retain them long after they have been shown to be meaningless, false, or at least questionable. The most widespread assumptions are the least questioned. 72) Most often, when an idea is adopted, particular attention is given to cases that assert it, while cases that seem to refute it are distorted, belittled, or ignored. We feel deeply that it is a sign of weakness to "change our minds." 73) Competent scientists, however, must be expert at changing their minds. This is because science seeks not to defend our beliefs but to improve them. Better theories are made by those who are not hung up on prevailing ones.
    Away from their profession, scientists are inherently no more honest or ethical than other people. But in their profession they work in an arena that puts a high premium on honesty. The cardinal rule in science is that all claims must be testable        they must be capable, at least in principle, of being proved wrong. 74) For example, if someone claims that a certain procedure has a certain result, it must in principle be possible to perform a procedure that will either confirm or contradict the claim. If confirmed, then the claim is regarded as useful and a steppingstone to further knowledge. None of us has the time or energy or resources to test every claim, so most of the time we must take somebody's word. However, we must have some criterion for deciding whether one person's word is as good as another's and whether one claim is as good as another. The criterion, again, is that the claim must be testable. To reduce the likelihood of error, scientists accept the word only of those whose ideas, theories, and findings are testable — if not in practice then at least in principle. Speculations that cannot be tested are regarded as "unscientific." This has the long-run effect of compelling honest findings widely publicized among fellow scientists are generally subjected to further testing. 75) Sooner or later, mistakes (and lies) are bound to be found out; wishful thinking is bound to be exposed. The honesty so important to the progress of science thus becomes a matter of self-interest to scientists.







                                      Passage 8

    As civilization proceeds in the direction of technology, it passes the point of supplying all the basic essentials of life-food, shelter, clothes, and warmth. 71) Then we are faced with a choice between using technology to provide and fulfil needs which have hitherto been regarded as unnecessary or, on the other hand, using technology to reduce the number of hours of work which a man must do in order to earn a given standard of living. In other words, we either raise our standard of living above that necessary for comfort and happiness or we leave it at this level and work shorter hours. I shall take it as axiomatic (=assumed to be true without proof) that mankind has, by that time, chosen the latter alternative. Men will be working shorter and shorter hours in their paid employment. It follows that the housewife will also expect to be able to have more leisure in her life without lowering her standard of living. It also follows that human domestic servants will have completely ceased to exist. 72) Yet the great majority of the housewives will wish to be relieved completely from the routine operations of the home such as scrubbing the floors or the bath or the cooker, or washing the clothes or washing up, or dusting or sweeping, or making beds.
    The most logical step to relieve the housewife of routine is to provide a robot slave which can be trained to the requirements of a particular home and can be programmed to carry out half a dozen or more standard operations (for example, scrubbing, sweeping and dusting, washing up, laying tables, making beds), when so switched by the housewife. 73) It will be a machine having no more emotions than a car, but having a memory for instructions and a limited degree of instructed or built-in adaptability according to the positions in which it finds various types of objects. It will operate other more specialized machines, for example, the vacuum cleaner or clothes-washing machine.
    74) There are no problems in the production of such a domestic robot to which we do not have already the glimmering of a solution.
    When I have discussed this kind of device with housewives, some 90 per cent of them have the immediate reaction,' How soon can I buy one?' The other 10 per cent have the reaction,' I would be terrified to have it moving about my house' — but when one explains to them that it could be switched off or unplugged or stopped without the slightest difficulty, or made to go and put itself away in a cupboard at any time, they quickly realize that it is a highly desirable object. In my own home we have found that, at first, the washing-up machine was regarded as a rival to the worker at the kitchen sink, but now there is no greater pleasure than to go to bed in the evening and know that the washing up is being done downstairs after one is asleep. 75) Some families would be delighted, no doubt, to have the robot slave doing all the downstairs housework after they were in bed at night, while others would prefer to have it done in the mornings, but this would be entirely a matter of choice.

































                                          Passage 9
    71)The amazing success of man as a species is the result of the evolutionary development of his brain which has led, among other things, to tool-using, tool-making, the ability to solve problems by logical reasoning, thoughtful cooperation, and language. One of the most striking ways in which the chimpanzee biologically resembles man lies in the structure of his brain. The chimpanzee, with his capacity for primitive reasoning, exhibits a type of intelligence more like that of man than does any other mammal living today.
    72)The brain of the modern chimpanzee is probably not too dissimilar to the brain that so many millions of years ago directed the behavior of the first ape man.
    For a long time, the fact that prehistoric man made tools was considered to be one of the major criteria distinguishing him from other creatures. As I pointed out earlier, I have watched chimpanzees modify grass stems in order to use them to probe for termites.
    73)It is true that the chimpanzee does not fashion his tools to "a regular and set pattern''-but then, prehistoric man, before his development of stone tools, undoubtedly poked around with sticks and straws, at which stage it seems unlikely that he made tools to a set pattern, either.
    74) It is because of the close association in most people's minds of tools with man that special attention has always been focused upon any animal able to use an object as a tool; but it is important to realize that this ability, on its own, does not necessarily indicate any special intelligence in the creature concerned. The fact that the Galapagos woodpecker finch uses a cactus spine or twig to probe insects from crevices in the bark is indeed a fascinating phenomenon, but it does not make the bird more intelligent than a genuine woodpecker that uses its long beak and tougue for the same purpose.
    75) The point at which tool-using and tool-making, as such, acquire evolutionary significance is surely when an animal can adapt its ability to manipulate objects to a wide variety of purposes, and when it can use an object spontaneously to solve a brandnew problem that without the use of a tool would prove insoluble.
    At the Gombe Stream alone we have seen chimpanzees use objects for many different purposes. They use stems and sticks to capture and eat insects, and, if the material picked is not suitable, then it is modified. They use leaves to sop up water they cannot reach with their lips, and first they chew on the leaves and thus increase their absorbency. We have seen them use handfuls of leaves to wipe dirt from their bodies or to dab at wounds.




                                       Passage 10
    The most important development will be the interconnection of "intelligent" items and computers. The whole network will offer far more in terms of saving labour than the mere elements alone. Whatever you want will be there when you want it.
    For example, if you wanted to cook a meal for friends, one of whom was a vegetarian, you could ask your oven for ideas. 71) It might suggest several recipes using the ingredients your fridge and cupboards had told it they contained which would be acceptable to all your guests while avoiding ingredients that you, the host, did not like. It could then cook it.
    This would probably mean more time to sit motionless in front of the television. Unless people chose to lead more active lives, there would be national epidemics of obesity-related conditions such as diabetes, cardio-vascular disease and hypertension.
    In the last two centuries, the average height has increased by 18in. 72) We are now in the middle of another great shift, but it's outwards and not upwards, because we fill our spare time with sedentary behaviour such as watching television.
    The problem posed by labour-saving devices is how to spend the saved time. While most people would sit in their homes, some white-collar workers might fill the time by working harder.
    The result could be a divided society. By 2050 we' re going to have a small number of hard-working rich and a vast majority of idle poor.
    73)The social changes labour-saving devices will bring could also strain personal relationships, lead to unemployment and spark an anti-technology backlash.
    74)We could become an impersonal society, preoccupied with technology, but there are going to be lots of people with low-paid jobs who won' t be liberated by it at all.
    However, mankind will rise to the challenge. We should not underestimate the amazing adaptability of human beings, 75) "If you are worried about getting too little exercise, someone would be happy to build a physical exercise machine so that you could burn calories while you sat at your desk."
    For the entrepreneurial capitalist the message is clear: invest in health clubs.

Passage 1
    The first and smallest unit that can be discussed in relation to language is the word. In speaking, the choice of words is     41     the utmost importance. Proper selection will eliminate one source of     42     breakdown in the communication cycle. Too often, careless use of words     43     a meeting of the minds of the speaker and listener. The words used by the speaker may     44     unfavorable reactions in the listener     45     interfere with his comprehension; hence, the transmission-reception system breaks down.
       46     inaccurate or indefinite words may make     47     difficult for the listener to understand the     48     which is being transmitted to him. The speaker who does not have specific words in his working vocabulary may be     49     to explain or describe in a     50    that can be understood by his listeners.

     Sleep is divided into periods of so-called REM sleep, characterized by rapid eye movements and dreaming, and longer periods of non-REM sleep.     41     kind of sleep is at all well understood, but REM sleep is     42     to serve some restorative function of the brain. The purpose of non-REM sleep is even more     43    . The new experiments, such as these     44     for the first time at a recent meeting of the Society for Sleep Research in Minneapolis, suggest fascinating explanations     45     of non-REM sleep.
    For example, it has long been known that total sleep     46    is 100 percent fatal to rats, yet,     47     examination of the dead bodies, the animals look completely normal. A researcher has now     48     the mystery of why the animals die.

Passage 3
    Vitamins are organic compounds necessary in small amounts in the diet for the normal growth and maintenance of life of animals, including man.
    They do not provide energy,     41     do they construct or build any part of the body. They are needed for     42     foods into energy and body maintenance. There are thirteen or more of them, and if     43     is missing a deficiency disease becomes     44    .
    Vitamins are similar because they are made of the same elements — usually carbon, hydrogen, oxygen, and     45     nitrogen. They are different     46     their elements are arranged differently, and each vitamin     47     one or more specific functions in the body.
        48     enough vitamins is essential to life, although the body has no nutritional use for     49     vitamins. Many people,     50    . believe in being on the "safe side" and thus take extra vitamins. However, a well-balanced diet will usually meet all the body' s vitamin needs.

    Manpower Inc, with 560,000 workers, is the world's largest temporary employment agency. Every morning, its people     41     into the offices and factories of America, seeking a day's work for a day's pay. One day at a time.     42     industrial giants like General Motors and IBM struggle to survive     43     reducing the number of employees, Manpower, based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, is booming.

This    "45"    work force is the most important     46     in American business today, and it is     47     changing the relationship between people and their jobs. The phenomenon provides a way for companies to remain globally competitive     48     avoiding market cycles and the growing burdens     49     by employment rules, healthcare costs and pension plans. For workers it can mean an end to the security, benefits and sense of     50     that came from being a loyal employee.

                                          Passage 5
    Until recently most historians spoke very critically of the Industrial Revolution. They     41     that in the long run industrialization greatly raised the standard of living for the     42     man. But they insisted that its     43     results during the period from 1750 to 1850 were widespread poverty and misery for the     44     of the English population.     45     contrast, they saw in the preceding hundred years from 1650 to 1750, when England was still a     46     agricultural country, a period of great abundance and prosperity.
    This view,     47    . is generally thought to be wrong. Specialists     48     history and economics, have     49     two things: that the period from 1650 to 1750 was     50     by great poverty, and that industrialization certainly did not worsen and may have actually improved the conditions for the majority of the populace.

                                                Passage 6
    Industrial safety does not just happen. Companies     41     low accident rates plan their safety programs, work hard to organize them, and continue working to keep them     42     and active. When the work is well done, a     43     of accident-free operations is established     44     time lost due to injuries is kept at a minimum.
    Successful safety programs may     45     greatly in the emphasis placed on certain aspects of the program. Some place great emphasis on mechanical guarding. Others stress safe work practices by     46     rules or regulations.     47     others depend on an emotional appeal to the worker. But, there are certain basic ideas that must be used in every program if maximum results are to be obtained.
    There can be no question about the value of a safety program. From a financial standpoint alone, safety      48    . The fewer the injury     49    . the better the workman's insurance rate. This may mean the difference between operating at     50     or at a loss.

He can continue to support himself and his family     42     he produces a surplus. He must use this surplus in three ways: as seed for sowing, as an insurance     43     the unpredictable effects of bad weather and as a commodity which he must sell in order to     44     old agricultural implements and obtain chemical fertilizers to     45     the soil.

    Comparisons were drawn between the development of television in the 20th century and the diffusion of printing in the 15th and 16th centuries. Yet much had happened     21    . As was discussed before, it was not     22     the 19th
century that the newspaper became the dominant pre-electronic     23    , following in the wake of the pamphlet and the book and in the     24     of the periodical. It was during the same time that the communications revolution     25     up, beginning with transport, the railway, and leading     26     through the telegraph, the telephone, radio, and motion pictures     27     the 20th century world of the motor car and the airplane. Not everyone sees that process in     28     It is important to do so.
    It is generally recognized,     29    , that the introduction of the computer in the early 20th century,     30     by the invention of the integrated circuit during the 1960s,radically changed the process,     31     its impact on the media was not immediately     32    . As time went by, computers became smaller and more powerful, and they became " personal" too, as well as     33    , with display becoming sharper and storage     34     increasing. They were thought of, like people,     35     generations, with the distance between generations much     36    .
    It was within the computer age that the term "information society" began to be widely used to describe the     37     within which we now live. The communications revolution has     38     both work and leisure and how we think and feel both about place and time, but there have been     39     views about its economic, political, social and cultural implications. "Benefits" have been weighed     40     "harmful" outcomes. And generalizations have proved difficult.

    Teachers need to be aware of the emotional, intellectual, and physical changes that young adults experience. And they also need to give serious     21     to how they can best     22     such changes. Growing bodies need movement and     23    . but not just in ways that emphasize competition.     24     they are adjusting to their new bodies and a whole host of new intellectual and emotional challenges, teenagers are especially self-conscious and need the     25     that comes from achieving success and knowing that their accomplishments are     26     by others. However, the typical teenage lifestyle is already filled with so much competition that it would be     27     to plan activities in which there are more winners than losers,     28    . publishing newsletters with many student-written book reviews,     29     student artwork, and sponsoring book discussion clubs. A variety of small clubs can provide     30     opportunities for leadership, as well as for practice in successful     31     dynamics. Making friends is extremely important to teenagers, and many shy students need the     32     of some kind of organization with a supportive adult     33     visible in the background.
    In these activities, it is important to remember that young teens have     34     attention spans. A variety of activities should be organized     35     participants can remain active as long as they want and then go on to     36     else without feeling guilty and without letting the other participants     37    . This does not mean that adults must accept irresponsibility.     38     they can help students acquire a sense of commitment by     39     for roles that are within their     40     and their attention spans and by having clearly stated rules.

Passage 11
    Many theories concerning the causes of juvenile delinquency (crimes committed by young people) focus either on the individual or on society as the major contributing influence. Theories     21     on the individual suggest that children engage in criminal behavior     22     they were not sufficiently penalized for previous misdeeds or that they have learned criminal behavior through     23     with others. Theories focusing on the role of society suggest that children commit crimes in     24     to their failure to rise above their socioeconomic status     25     as a rejection of middle-class values.
    Most theories of juvenile delinquency have focused on children from disadvantaged families,     26     the fact that children from wealthy homes also commit crimes. The latter may commit crimes     27     lack of adequate parental control. All theories, however, are tentative and are     28     to criticism.
    Changes in the social structure may indirectly     29     juvenile crime rates. For example, changes in the economy that     30     to fewer job opportunities for youth and rising unemployment     31     make gainful employment increasingly difficult to obtain. The resulting discontent may in     32     lead more youths into criminal behavior.
    Families have also     33     changes these years. More families consist of one parent households or two working parents;     34     , children are likely to have less supervision at home     35     was common in the traditional family     36    . This lack of parental supervision is thought to be an influence on juvenile crime rates. Other     37     causes of offensive acts include frustration or failure in school, the increased     38     of drugs and alcohol, and the growing     39     of child abuse and child neglect. All these conditions tend to increase the probability of a child committing a criminal act,     40     a direct causal relationship has not yet been established.

    During the 1980s, unemployment and underemployment in some countries was as high as 90 per cent. Some countries did not     1     enough food; basic needs in housing and clothing were not     2    . Many of these countries looked to the industrial processes of the developed nations     3     solutions.
        4    , problems cannot always be solved by copying the industrialized nations. Industry in the developed nations is highly automated and very     5    .
It provides fewer jobs than labor-intensive industrial processes, and highly     6     workers are needed to     7     and repair the equipment. These workers must be trained,     8     many nations do not have the necessary training institutions. Thus, the     9     of importing industry becomes higher. Students must be sent abroad to     10     vocational and professional training.     11    .  just to begin training, the students must     12     learn English, French, German, or Japanese. The students then spend many years abroad, and     13     do not return home.
    All nations agree that science and technology     14     be shared. The point is: countries     15     the industrial processes of the developed nations need to look care-fully     16     the costs, because many of these costs are     17    . Students from these nations should     18     the problems of the industrialized countries closely.     19     care, they will take home not the problems of science and technology,     20     the benefits.

Passage 1
    Silence is unnatural to man. He begins life with a cry and ends it in stillness. In the     1     he does all he can to make a noise in the world, and there are few things     2     he stands in more fear than of the     3     of noise. Even his conversation is     4     a desperate attempt to prevent a dreadful silence. If he is introduced to a fellow mortal and a number of     5     occur in the conversation, he regards himself as a failure, a worthless person, and is full of     6     of the emptiest-headed chatterbox. He knows that ninety-nine percent of human conversation means     7     the buzzing of a fly, but the longs to join in the buzz and to prove that he is a man and not a wax-work     8    . The object of conversation is not,     9     
the most part, to communicate ideas; it is to     10     the buzzing sound. Most buzzing,     11    , is agreeable to the ear, and some of it is agreeable even to the     12    .

                                     Passage 2
    Recent legal research indicated that incorrect identification is a major factor in many miscarriages(失败)of justice. It also suggests that identification of people by witnesses in a courtroom is not as     1     as commonly believed. Recent studies do not support the     2     of faith judges, jurors, lawyers and the police have in eyewitness evidence.
    The Law Commission recently published an educational paper, "Total Recall? The Reliability of Witness     3     ", as a companion guide to a proposed code of evidence. The paper finds that commonly held     4     about how our minds work and how well we remember are often wrong. But while human memory is     5     change, it should not be underestimated.
    In court witnesses are asked to give evidence about events, and judges and juries     6     its reliability. The paper points out that memory is complex, and the reliability of any person' s recall must be assessed     7    .
    Both common sense and research say memory     8     over time. The accuracy of recall and recognition are     9     their best immediately     10     encoding the information, declining at first rapidly, then gradually. The longer the delay, the more likely it is that information obtained after the event will interfere     11     the original memory, which reduces     12    .
    The paper says     13     interviews or media reports can create such     14    . "People are particularly susceptible to having their memories     15     when the passage of time allows the original memory to     16    . and will be most susceptible if they repeat the     17     as fact."
    Witnesses may see or read information after the event, then     18     it to produce something     19     offender, "Further, witnesses may strongly believe in their memories, even though aspects of those memories are     20     false."

                                   Passage 3
    Throughout the 19th century and into the 20th, citizens of the United States maintained a bias against big cities. Most lived on farms and in small towns and believed cities to be centres of     1    , crime, poverty and moral     2    . Their distrust was caused,     3    .by a national ideology that     4     farming the greatest occupation and rural living     5     to urban living. This attitude     6     even as the number of urban dwellers increased and cities became an essential     7     of the national landscape. Gradually, economic reality overcame ideology. Thousands     8     the precarious (不稳定的) life on the farm for more secure and better paying jobs in the city. But when these people     9     from the countryside, they carried their fears and suspicions with them. These new urbanities, already convinced that cities were     10     with great problems, eagerly     11     the progressive reforms that promised to bring order out of the     12     of the city.
    One of many reforms came     13     the area of public utilities. Water and sewerage systems were usually operated by     14     governments, but the gas and electric networks were privately owned. Reformers feared that the privately owned utility companies would     15     exorbitant (过度的) rates for these essential services and     16     them only to people who could afford them. Some city and state governments responded by     17     the utility companies, but a number of cities began to supply these services themselves.     18     of these reforms argued that public ownership and regulation would     19     widespread access to these utilities and guarantee a     20     price.

Passage 4
    Psychologist Alfred Adler suggested that the primary goal of the psyche(灵魂、精神)was superiority. Although     1     he believed that individuals struggled to achieve superiority over others, Adler, eventually     2     a more complex definition of the drive for superiority.
    Adler's concept of striving for superiority does not     3     the everyday meaning of the word superiority. He did not mean that we innately(天生地)seek to     4     one another in rank or position,     5     did he mean that we seek to     6     an attitude of exaggerated importance over our peers.     7    . Adler's drive for superiority involves the desire to be competent and effective, complete and thorough, in     8     one strives to do.
    Striving for superiority occasionally takes the     9     of an exaggerated lust for power. An individual may seek to play god and     10     control over objects and people. The goal may introduce an     11     tendency into our lives, in which we play games of "dog eat dog". But such expressions of the desire for superiority do not     12     its more positive, constructive nature.
        13     Adler, striving for superiority is innate and is part of the struggle for     14     that human beings share with other species in the process of evolution. From this     15    . life is not     16     by the need to reduce tension or restore     17    . as sigmund Freud tended to think;     18    , life is encouraged by the desire to move from below to above, from minus to plus, from inferior to superior. The particular ways in which individuals     19     their quest(追求)for superiority are     20     by their culture, their unique history.

Passage 5
    Most people who travel long distances complain of jetlag(喷气飞行时差反应).Jetlag makes business travelers less productive and more prone     1     making mistakes. It is actually caused by     2     of your "body clock" — a small cluster of brain cells that controls the timing of biological     3    . The body clock is designed for a     4     rhythm of daylight and darkness, so that it is thrown out of balance when it     5     daylight and darkness at the "wrong" times in a new time zone. The     6     of jetlag often persist for days     7     the internal body clock slowly adjusts to the new time zone.
    Now a new anti-jetlag system is     8     that is based on proven     9     pioneering scientific research. Dr. Martin Moore-Ede has      10    a practical strategy to adjust the body clock much sooner to the new time zone     11     controlled exposure to bright light. The time zone shift is easy to accomplish and eliminates     12     of the discomfort of jetlag.
    A successful time zone shift depends on knowing the exact times to either     13     or avoid bright light. Exposure to light at the wrong time can actually make jetlag worse. The proper schedule     14     light exposure depends a great deal on     15     travel plans.
    Data on a specific flight itinerary and the individual' s sleep     16     are used to produce a Trip Guide with     17     on exactly when to be exposed to bright light.
    When the Trip Guide calls     18     bright light you should spend time outdoors if possible. If it is dark outside, or the weather is bad,     19     you are on an aeroplane, you can use a special light device to provide the necessary light     20     for a range of activities such as reading, watching TV or working.

    Our ape-men forefathers had     1     obvious natural weapons in the struggle for survival in the open. They had neither the powerful teeth nor the strong claws of the big cats. They could not     2     with the bear, whose strength, speed and claws     3     an impressive "small-fire" weaponry. They could not even defend themselves     4     running swiftly like the horses, zebras or small animals. If the apemen had attempted to compete on those terms in the open, they would have been     5     to failure and extinction. But they were     6     with enormous concealed advantages of a kind not possessed by any of their competitors.
    In the search     7     the pickings of the forest, the ape-men had     8     efficient stereoscopic vision and a sense of colour that the animals of the grasslands did not possess. The ability to see clearly at close range permitted the ape-men to study practical problems in a way that lay far     9     the reach of the original inhabitants of the grassland. Good long-distance sight was     10     another matter. Lack of long-distance vision had not been a problem for forest-dwelling apes and monkeys because the higher the viewpoint, the     11     the range of sight-so     12     they had had to do was climb a tree.

    This vital change of physical position brought about considerable disadvantages. It was extremely unstable and it meant that the already slow ape-men became slower     17    .

passage 7
    Television is the most effective brainwashing     1     ever invented by man. Advertisers know this to be     2    . Children are     3     by television in ways we     4     understand. In the fall of 1971,1 was     5     a story involving a young white woman living on the     6     of Boston's black ghetto. Her car had     7     out of gas. She had gone to a filling station with a can and was returning to her car when she was     8     in an alley by a gang of black youths. The gang poured gasoline over her and set fire     9     her. She died of her burns. It was     10     established that some of the youths     11     had, on the night before the killing,     12     on television a rerun of an old movie in which a drifter is set on fire by an adolescent gang; There is some kind of strange reductive process     13     work here. To see something on television robs it of its reality, and then when the     14     thing is     15     out it is like the reenactment of something unreal.     16     when the gang set fire to the girl, they were     17     what they had seen on a screen,     18     they themselves were on a screen, and in a story.

    High school students who, after graduation, would like to continue their education are frequently faced with many problems in financing college training.     1     education is not so wide-spread at the college level     2     at the elementary and     3     school levels. There is usually a charge for     4    , In addition, for most students, going to college     5     living away from home, an expensive matter.

                                      Passage 9
    The majority of people, about nine out often, are right-handed.     1     until recently, people who were left-handed were considered     2     , and once children showed this tendency they were forced to use their right hands. Today left-handedness is generally     3    , but it is still a disadvantage in a world     4     most people are right-handed. For example, most tools and implements are still     5     for right-handed people. In sports     6     contrast, doing things with the left hand or foot, is often an advantage. Throwing, kicking, punching or batting from the "     7     " side may result in throwing     8     many opponents who are more accustomed to dealing with the     9     of players who are right-handed. This is why, in many     10     at a professional level, a     11     proportion of players are left-handed than in the population as a whole. The word "right" in many languages means "correct" or is     12     with lawfulness, whereas the words associated     13     "left",  such as "sinister",  generally have     14     associations. Moreover, among a number of primitive peoples, there is     15     close association between death and the left hand.
    In the past, in     16     Western societies, children were often forced to use their right hands, especially to write with. In some cases the left hand was     17     behind the child' s back so that it could not be used. If, in the future, they are allowed to choose,     18     will certainly be more left-handers, and probably     19     people with minor psychological disturbances as a result of being forced to use their     20     hand.

Passage 10
    Most people would be     1     by the high quality of medicine     2     to most Americans. There is a lot of specialization, a great deal of     3     to the individual, a     4     amount of advanced technical equipment, and     5     effort not to make mistakes because of the financial risk which doctors and hospitals must     6     in the courts if they     7     things badly.
    But the Americans are in a mess. The problem is the way in     8     health care is organized and     9    .     10     to pubic belief it is not just a free competition system. The private system has been joined a large public system, because private care was simply not     11     the less fortunate and the elderly.
    But even with this huge public part of the system,     12     this year will eat up 84. 5 billion dollars-more than 10 percent of the U.S. Budget-large number of Americans are left     13    .These include about half the million unemployed and those who fail to meet the strict limits     14     income fixed by a govern-ment trying to make savings where it can.
    The basic problem, however, is that there is no central control     15     the health system. There is no     16     to what doctors and hospitals charge for their services, other than what the public is able to pay. The number of doctors has shot up and prices have climbed. When faced with toothache, a sick child, or a heart attack, all the unfortunate persons concerned can do is     17     up. Two-thirds of the population     18     covered by medical insurance. Doctors charge as much as they want     19     that the insurance company will pay the bill.
    The rising cost of medicine in the U.S. A is among the most worrying problems facing the country. In 1981 the country's health bill climbed 15.9percent-about twice as fast as prices     20     general.

    On April 20 , 2000, in Accra, Ghana, the leaders of six West African-countries declared their intention to proceed to monetary union among the non-CFA franc countries of the region by January 2003, as first step toward a wider monetary union including all the ECOWAS countries in 2004.The six countries     1     themselves to reducing central bank financing of budget deficits     2     10percent of the previous years government     3    ;reducing budget deficits to     4     percent of the second phase by 2003; creating a Convergence Council to help 4 macroeconomic policies; and     5     up a common central bank. Their declaration     6     that, "Member States     7     the need     8     strong political commitment and     9     to     10     all such national policies     11     would facilitate the regional monetary integration process."
    The goal of a monetary union in ECOWAS has long been an objective of the organization, going back to its formation in 1975, and is intended to     12     broader integration process that would include enhanced regional trade and     13     institutions. In the colonial period, currency boards linked sets of countries in the region.     14     independence,     15    , these currency boards were     16    , with the     17     of the CFA franc zone, which included the francophone countries of the region. Although there have been attempts to advance the agenda of ECOWAS monetary cooperation, political problems and other economic priorities in several of the region' s countries have to     18     inhibited progress. Although some problems remain, the recent initiative has been bolstered by the election in 1999 of a democratic government and a leader who is committed to regional     19     in Nigeria, the largest economy of the region, raising hopes that the long-delayed project can be     20    .

    Even plants can run a fever, especially when they are under attack by insects or disease. But     1     humans , plants can have their temperature     2     from 3,000 feet a way-straight up. A decade ago,     3     the infrared (红外线的)scanning technology developed for military purpose and other satellites, physicist Stephen Paley     4     a quick way to take the temperature of crops to determine     5     ones are under stress. The goal was to let farmer     6     target pesticide spraying     7     rain poison on a whole field , which     8     include plants that don't have the pest problem.
    Even better, Paley's Remote Scanning Services Company could detect crop problem before they became     9     to the eye. Mounted on a plane flown at 3,000 feet     10    , an infrared scanner measured the heat emitted by crops. The data were     11     into a color-coded map showing     12     plants were running "fevers". Farmers could then spot spray, using 50 to 70 percent less pesticide than they     13     would. The bad news is that Paley's company closed down in 1984 , after only three years. Farmers     14     the new technology and long-term backers were hard     15    .But with the renewed concern about pesticides on produce , and refinements in infrared scanning, Paley hopes to     16     into operation. Agriculture experts have no doubt the technology works. "This technique can be used     17    .75 percent of agricultural land in the United States, " says George Oerther of Texas A&M. Ray Jackson , who recently retired from the Department of Agriculture , thinks     18     infrared crop scanning could be adopted by the end of the decade. But     19     Paley finds the financial backing     20     he failed to obtain 10 years ago.

    Many foreigners who have not visited Britain call all the inhabitants English, for they are used to thinking of the British Isles as England.     1     ,the British Isles contain a variety of peoples, and only the people of England call themselves English. The others     2     to themselves as Welsh, Scottish, or Irish,     3     the case may be; they are often slightly annoyed     4     being classified as "English".
    Even in England there are many     5     in regional character and speech. The chief     6     is between southern England and northern England. South of a     7     going from Bristol to London, people speak the type of English usually learnt by foreign students,     8     there are local variations.
    Further north, regional speech is usually     9     than that of southern Britain. Northerners are     10     to claim that they work harder than Southerners, and are more     11    .They are openhearted and hospitable; foreigners often find that they make friends with them     12    . Northerners generally have hearty     13    : the visitor to Lancashire or Yorkshire, for instance, may look forward to receiving generous     14     at meal times.
    In accent and character the people of the Midlands     15     a gradual change from the southern to the northern type of Englishman.
    In Scotland the sound     16     by the letter "R" is generally a strong sound, and "R" is often pronounced in words in which it would be     17     in southern English. The Scots are said to be a serious, cautious, thrifty people,     18     inventive and somewhat mystical. All the Celtic peoples of Britain (the Welsh, the Irish, the Scots) are frequently     19     as being more "fiery "than the English. They are     20     a race that is quite distinct from the English.

    Long before Man lived on the Earth, there were fishes, reptiles, birds, insects, and some mammals. Although some of these animals were ancestors of kinds living today, others are now extinct, that is, they have no descendants alive now .41) ______________________________
    Very occasionally the rocks show impression of skin, so that, apart from color, we can build up a reasonably accurate picture of an animal that died millions of years ago. That kind of rock in which the remains are found tells us much about the nature of the original land, often of the plants that grew on it, and even of its climate.
    42)        . Nearly all of the fossils that we know were preserved in rocks formed by water action, and most of these are of animals that lived in or near water. Thus it follows that there must be many kinds of mammals, birds, and insects of which we know noting.
    43)        . There were also crablike creatures, whose bodies were covered with a horny substance. The body segments each had two pairs of legs, one pair for walking on the sandy bottom, the other for swimming. The head was a kind of shield with a pair of compound eyes, often with thousands of lenses. They were usually an inch or two long but some were 2 feet.
    44)        . Of these, the ammonites are very interesting and important. They have a shell composed of many chambers, each representing a temporary home of the animal . As the young grew larger it grew a new chamber and sealed off the previous one. Thousands of these can be seen in the rocks on the Dorset Coast.
    45)        .
    About 75 million years ago the Age of Reptiles was over and most of the groups died out .The mammals quickly developed, and we can trace the evolution of many familiar animals such as the elephant and horse. Many of the later mammals though now extinct, were known to primitive man and were featured by him in cave paintings and on bone carvings.
     [A] The shellfish have a long history in the rock and many different kinds are known.
    [B] Nevertheless, we know a great deal about many of them because their bones and shells have been preserved in the rocks as fossils, From them we can tell their size and shape, how they walked ,the kind of food they ate .
    [C] The first animals with true backbones were the fishes, first known in the rocks of 375 million years ago. About 300 million years ago the amphibians, the animals able to live both on land and in water, appeared. They were giant, sometimes 8 feet long, and many of them lived in the swampy pools in which our coal seam, or layer, or formed .The amphibians gave rise to the reptiles and for nearly 150 million years these were the principal forms of life on land, in the sea, and in the air.
    [D] The best index fossils tend to be marine creature. There animals evolved rapidly and spread over large over large areas of the world.
    [E] The earliest animals whose remains have been found were all very simple kinds and lived in the sea. Later forma are more complex, and among these are the sea-lilies, relations of the starfishes, which had long arms and were attached by a long stalk to the sea bed, or to rocks .
    [F] When an animal dies, the body, its bones ,or shell ,may often be carried away by streams into lakes or the sea and there get covered up by mud .If the animal lived in the sea its body would probably sink and be covered with mud .More and more mud would fall upon it until the bones or shell become embedded and preserved.
    [G] Many factors can influence how fossils are preserved in rocks. Remains of an organism may be replaced by minerals, dissolved by an acidic solution to leave only their impression, or   simply reduced to a more stable form.

                                   Passage 1
    English has become the world's number one language in the 20th century. In every country where English is not the native language, especially in the Third World, people must strive to learn it to the best of their abilities, if they want to participate fully in the development of their countries. 41)_____________________________.
     42).__________________________________. Nonetheless, a world full of different languages will disappear if the present trend in many countries to use English to replace the national or official languages in education, trade and even politics continues. 43)_________________________________.
    The Third World countries that are now using English as a medium of instruction are depriving 75 per cent of their future leaders of a proper education. According to many studies, only around 20 to 25 per cent of students in these countries can manage to learn the language of instruction (English) as well as basic subjects at the same time. Many leaders of these Third World countries are obsessed with English and for them English is everything. They seem to believe that if the students speak English, they are already
knowledgeable. 44)____________________________.
    All the greatest countries of the world are great because they constantly use their own languages in all national development activities, including education. From a psycho logical point of view, those who are taught in their own language from the start will develop better self-confidence and self-reliance. From a linguistic point of view, the best brains can only be produced if students are educated in their own language from the start. 45)_________________________.
    There is nothing wrong, however, in learning a foreign language at advanced levels of education. But the best thing to do is to have a good education in one's native language first, then go abroad to have a university education in a foreign language.

    [A] If this situation continues, the native or official languages of these countries will certainly die within two or three generations. This phenomenon has been called linguistic genocide. A language dies if it is not fully used in most activities, particularly as a medium of instruction in schools.
    [B] Those who are taught in a foreign language from the start will tend to be imitators and lack self-confidence. They will tend to rely on foreign consultants.
    [C] Suppose you work in a big firm and find English very important for your job because you often deal with foreign businessmen. Now you are looking for a place where you can improve your English, especially your spoken English.
    [D] But many people are concerned that English's dominance will destroy native languages.
    [E]These leaders speak and write English much better than their national languages. If these leaders deliver speeches anywhere in the world they use English and they feel more at home with it and proud of their ability as well. The citizens of their countries do not understand their leaders' speeches because they are made in a foreign language.
    [F] Here are some advertisements about English language training from newspapers. You may find the information you need.
    [G]A close examination reveals a great number of languages have fallen casualty to English. For example, it has wiped out Hawaiian, Welsh, Scotch Gaelic, Irish, native American languages, and many others. Luckily, some of these languages are now being revived, such as Hawaiian and Welsh, and these languages will live again, hopefully, if dedicated people continue their work of reviving them.























                                  Passage 2
    In 1959 the average American family paid $ 989 for a year's supply of food. In 1972 the family paid $ 1,311 .That was a price increase of nearly one-third. Every family has had this sort of experience. Everyone agrees that the cost of feeding a family has risen sharply. But there is less agreement when reasons for the rise are being discussed. Who is really responsible?
    Many blame the farmers who produce the vegetables, fruit, meat, eggs, and cheese that stores offer for sale. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the farmer's share of the $ 1, 311 spent by the family in 1972 was $ 521.This was 31 per cent more than the farmer had received in 1959.
    But farmers claim that this increase was very small compared to the increase in their cost of living. Farmers tend to blame others for the sharp rise in food prices. They particularly blame those who process the farm products after the products leave the farm. These include truck drivers, meat packers, manufacturers of packages and other food containers, and the owners of stores where food is sold. 41)
    Of the $ 1, 311 family food bill in 1972, middlemen received $ 790, which was 33 per cent more than they had received in 1959.It appears that the middlemen's profit has increased more than farmer's. But some economists claim that the middleman's actual profit was very low. According to economists at the First National City Bank, the profit for meat packers and food stores amounted to less than one per cent. During the same period all other manufacturers were making a profit of more than 5 per cent. 42)__________________________________.
    43)_______________________________. Vegetables and chicken cost more when they have been cut into pieces by someone other than the one who buys it. A family should expect to pay more when several "TV dinners" are taken home from the store. These are fully cooked meals, consisting of meat, vegetables, and sometimes desert, all arranged on a metal dish. The dish is put into the oven and heated while the housewife is doing something else. Such a convenience costs money. 44)_______________.
    Economists remind us that many modern housewives have jobs outside the home. They earn money that helps to pay the family food bills. The housewife naturally has less time and energy for cooking after a day's work. She wants to buy many kinds of food that can be put on her family's table easily and quickly. 45)                             .
    It appears that the answer to the question of rising prices is not a simple one. Producers, consumers, and middlemen all share the responsibility for the sharp rise in food costs.

    [A] Thus, as economists point out: "Some of the basic reasons for widening food price spreads are easily traceable to the increasing use of convenience foods, which transfer much of the time and work of meal preparation from the kitchen to the food processor' s plant."
    [B] They are among the "middlemen" who stand between the farmer and the people who
buy and eat the food. Are middlemen the ones to blame for rising food prices?
    [C] "If the housewife wants all of these, "the economists say, "that is her privilege, but she
must be prepared to pay for the services of those who make her work easier."
     [D] Who then is actually responsible for the size of the bill a housewife must pay before she
carries the food home from the store? The economists at First National City Bank have an answer to give housewives, but many people will not like it. These economists blame the housewife herself for the jump in food prices. They say that food costs more now because women don' t want to spend much time in the kitchen. Women prefer to buy food which has already been prepared before it reaches the market.
     [E] However, some economists believe that controls can have negative effects over a long period
of time. In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum rent that a landlord (雇主) can charge for an apartment.
     [F] Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of
different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it.
     [G] By comparison with other members of the economic system both farmers and middlemen
have profited surprisingly little from the rise in food prices.

















                                Passage 3
    Growing cooperation among branches of tourism has proved valuable to all concerned. Government bureaus, trade and travel association, carriers and properties are all working together to bring about optimum conditions for travelers.
    41)_______________________________. They distribute materials to agencies, such as journals, brochures and advertising projects. 42)_________________________.
    Tourist counselors give valuable seminars to acquaint agents with new programs and techniques in selling. 43)______________________________________________.
    Properties and agencies work closely together to make the most suitable contracts, considering both the comfort of the clients and their own profitable financial arrangement. 44)__________________________.
    45)________________________________. Carriers are dependent upon agencies to supply passengers, and agencies are dependent upon carriers to present them with marketable tours. All services must work together for greater efficiency, fair pricing and contented customers.

    [A] The same confidence exists between agencies and carriers including car-rental and sight-seeing services.
    [B] They offer familiarization and workshop tours so that in a short time agents can obtain first-hand knowledge of the tours.
    [C] Travel operators, specialists in the field of planning, sponsor extensive research programs. They have knowledge of all areas and all carrier services, and they are experts in organizing different types of tours and in preparing effective advertising campaigns.
     [D] As a result of teamwork, tourism is flouring in all countries.
     [E] Agencies rely upon the good services of hotels, and, conversely, hotels rely upon agencies, to fulfill their- contracts and to send them clients.
     [F] In This way agents learn to explain destinations and to suggest different modes and combinations of travel-Planes, ships, trains, motorcoaches, car-rentals, and even car purchases.
    [G] Consequently, the agencies started to pay more attention to the comfort of travel.







                                Passage 4
    Fields across Europe are contaminated with dangerous levels of the antibiotics given to farm animals. The drugs, which are in manure sprayed onto fields as fertilizers, could be getting into our food and water, helping to create a new generation of antibiotic-resistant "superbugs".
    The warning comes from a researcher in Switzerland who looked at levels of the drugs in farm slurry. 41)____________________________________.
    Some 20,000 tons antibiotics are used in the European Union and the US each year. More than half are given to farm-animals to prevent disease and promote growth.
42)______________________________________________.
    Most researchers assumed that humans become infected with the resistant strains by eating contaminated meat. But far more of the drugs end up in manure than in meat products, says Stephen Mueller of the Swiss Federal Institute for Environmental Science and Technology in Dubendorf. 43)_____________________________________.
    With millions of tons animals manure spread onto fields of cops such as wheat and barley each year, this pathway seems an equally likely route for spreading resistance, he said. The drugs contaminate the crops, which are then eaten.44)________________.
    Mueller is particularly concerned about a group of antibiotics called sulphonamides.
45)______________________________________________. This concentration is high enough to trigger the development of resistance among bacteria. But vets are not treating the issue seriously.
    There is growing concern at the extent to which drugs, including antibiotics, are polluting the environment. Many drugs given to humans are also excreted unchanged and broken down by conventional sewage treatment.

    [A]They do not easily degrade or dissolve in water. His analysis found that Swiss farm manure contains a high percentage of sulphonamides; each hectare of field could be contaminated with up to 1 kilogram of the drugs.
    [B] And manure contains especially high levels of bugs that are resistant to antibiotics, he says.
     [C] Animal antibiotics is still an area to which insufficient attention has been paid.
     [D] But recent research has found a direct link between the increased use of these farmyard drugs and the appearance of antibiotic-resistant bugs that infect people.
     [E] His findings are particularly shocking because Switzerland is one of the few countries to have banned antibiotics as growth promoters in animal feed.
      [F] They could also be leaching into tap water pumped from rocks beneath fertilized fields.
     [G] There is no doubt that the food and drink is always important to the health.

































Passage 5
    The main problem in discussing American popular culture is also one of its main characteristics: it won't stay American. no matter what it is, whether it is films, food and fashion, music, casual sports or slang, it' s soon at home elsewhere in the world. There are several theories why American popular culture has had this appeal.
    One theory is that is has been "advertised" and marketed through American films, popular music, and more recently, television.41)_______________________________.
They are, after all, in competition with those produced by other countries.
    Another theory, probably a more common one, is that American popular culture is internationally associated with something called "the spirit of America." 42) _________________.
    The final theory is less complex: American popular culture is popular because a lot of people in the world like it.
    Regardless of why its spreads, American popular culture is usually quite rapidly adopted and then adapted in many other countries. 43)_______________________        . Black leather jackets worn by many heroes in American movies could be found, a generation later, on all those young men who wanted to make this manly-look their-own.
    Two areas where this continuing process is most clearly seen are clothing and music. Some people can still remember a time. When T-shirts, jogging clothes, tennis shoes, denim jackets, and blue jeans were not common daily wear everywhere. Only twenty years ago, it was possible to spot an American in Paris by his or her clothes. No longer so: those bright colors, checkered jackets and trousers, hats and socks which were once made fun in cartoons are back again in Paris as the latest fashion. 44)________________.
    The situation with American popular music is more complex because in the beginning, when it was still clearly American, it was often strongly resisted. Jazz was once thought to be a great danger to youth and their morals, and was actually outlawed in several countries. Today, while still showing its rather American roots, it has become so well established. Rock "n" roll and all its variations, country & western music, all have more or less similar histories. They were first resisted, often in America as well, as being "low-class," and then as "a danger to our nation's youth." 45________________.And then the music became accepted and was extended and was extended and developed, and exported back to the U.S.

   [A] As a result, its American origins and roots are often quickly forgotten. "happy birthday to you," for instance ,is such an everyday song that its source, its American copyright, so to speak, is not remembered.
   [B] But this theory fails to explain why American films, music, and television, programs are so popular in themselves.
    [C] American in origin, informal clothing has become the world's first truly universal style.
   [D] The BBC, for example, banned rock and roll until 1962.
   [E] American food has become popular around the world too.
   [F] This spirit is variously described as being young and free, optimistic and confident,
informal and disrespectful.
   [G] It is hardly surprising that the public concern contributes a lot to the spread of the their culture.

























                                   Passage   6
    Albert Einstein, whose theories on space time and matter helped unravel the secrets of the atom and of the universe, was chosen as "Person of the Century" by Time magazine on Sunday.
    A man whose very name is synonymous with scientific genius, Einstein has come to represent more than any other person the flowering of 20th century scientific thought that set the stage for the age of technology.
    "The world has changed far more in the past 100 years than in any other century in history. The reason is not political or economic, but technological-technologies that flowed directly from advances in basic science," wrote theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking in a Time essay explaining Einstein's significance. 41)___________________________________.
    Time chose as runner-up President Franklin Roosevelt to represent the triumph of freedom and democracy over fascism, and Mahatma Gandhi as an icon for a century when civil and human rights became crucial factors in global politics.
    " What we saw was Franklin Roosevelt embodying the great theme of freedom's fight against totalitarianism, Gandhi personifying the great theme of individual struggling for their rights, and Einstein being both a great genius and a great symbol of a scientific revolution that brought with it amazing technological advances that helped expand the growth of freedom," said Time Magazine Editor Walter Isaacson.
    Einstein was born in Ulm, Germany in 1879. 42)___________________. He could not stomach organized learning and loathed taking exams.
    In 1905, however, he was to publish a theory which stands as one of the most intricate examples of human imagination in history. 43)_______________________________. Everything else—mass, weight, space, even time itself—is a variable. And he offered the world his now-famous equation: energy equals mass times the speed 6f light squared—E=mc2
    44)_____________________________.
   45)_____________________________. Einstein did not work on the project. Einstein died in Princeton, New Jersey in 1955.

    [A]"Indirectly, relativity paved the way for a new relativism in morality, art and politics," Isaacson wrote in an essay explaining Time's choices. "There was less faith in absolutes, not of time and space but also of truth and morality." Einstein' s famous equation was also the seed that led to the development of atomic energy and weapons. In 1939, six years after he fled European fascism and settled at Princeton University, Einstein, an avowed pacifist, signed a letter to President Roosevelt urging the United States to develop an atomic bomb before Nazi Germany did.
    [B] How he thought of the relativity theory influenced the general public' s view about Albert Einstein.
    [C] "Clearly, no scientist better represents those advances than Albert Einstein."
    [D] Roosevelt heeded the advice and formed the "Manhattan Project " that secretly developed the first atomic weapon.
    [E] In his early years, Einstein did not show the promise of what he was to become. He was slow to learn to learn to speak and did not do well in elementary school.
    [F] In his "Special Theory of Relativity," Einstein described how the only constant in the universe is the speed of light.
    [G] It is said that Einstein's success lies in the fact that few people can understand his theories.






















                                      Passage 7
    When do people decide whether or not they want to become friends? During their first four minutes together, according to a book by Dr. Leonard Zunin. In his book, "Contact: The first four minutes", he offers this advice to anyone interested in starting new friendships: 41)___________________.
    A lot of people's whole lives would change if they did just that."
    You may have noticed that the average person does not give his undivided attention to someone he has just met.42)_________________________________. If anyone has ever done this to you probably did not like him very much.
    When we are introduced to new people, the author suggests, we should try to appear friendly and self-confident. In general, he says, "People like people who like themselves."
    On the other hand, we should not make the other person think we are too sure of ourselves. It is important to appear interested and sympathetic, realizing that the other person has his own needs, fears, and hopes.
    Hearing such advice, one might say, "But I'm not a friendly, self-confident person. That's not my nature. It would be dishonest for me to act that way."
    43)______________________________. "It is like getting used to a new car. It may be unfamiliar at first, but it goes much better than the old one."
    But isn't it dishonest to give the appearance of friendly self-confidence when we don't actually feel that way? Perhaps, but according to Dr. Zunin, "total honesty" is not always good for social relationships, especially during the first few minutes of contact. There is a time for everything, and a certain amount of play-acting may be best for the first few minutes of contact with a stranger. That is not the time to complain about one's health or to mention faults one finds in other people. It is not the time to tell the whole truth about one's opinions and impressions.
    44)_____________________________.
    The author says that interpersonal relations should be taught as a required course in every school, along with reading, writing, and mathematics. 45)__________________. That is at least as important as how much we know.

    [A] In reply, Dr. Zunin would claim that a little practice can help us feel comfortable about changing our social habits. We can become accustomed to any change we choose to make in our personality.
    [B] Much of what has been said about strangers also applies to relationships with family members and friends. For a husband and wife or a parent and child, problems often arise during their first four minutes together after they have been apart. Dr. Zunin suggests that these first few minutes together be treated with care. If there are unpleasant matters to be discussed, they should be dealt with later.
    [C] In his opinion, success in life depends mainly on how we get along with other people.
    [D] Every time you meet someone in a social situation, give him your undivided attention for four minutes.
    [E] He keeps looking over the other person's shoulder, as if hoping to find someone more interesting in another part of the room.
    [F] He is eager to make friends with everyone.
    [G] It is also noticed that eye-contact shows something special related to the friendship.
























                                    Passage 8
    Several types of financial risk are encountered in international marketing; the major problems include commercial, political and foreign exchange risk.
    41)_____________________________.They include solvency, default, or refusal to pay bills. Their major risk, however, is competition which can only be dealt with through consistently effective management and marketing.42)________________________________.Such risk is encountered when a controversy arises about the quality of goods delivered, a dispute over contract terms, or any other disagreement over which payment is withheld. One company, for example, shipped several hundred tons of dehydrated potatoes to a distributor in Germany. 43)_______________________. The alternatives for the exporter were reducing the price, reselling the potatoes, or shipping them home again, each involving considerable cost.
    Political risk relates to the problems of war or revolution, currency inconvertibility, expropriation or expulsion, and restriction or cancellation of import licenses.44)____________________________________.
    Management information systems and effective decision-making processes are the best defenses against political risk. As many companies have discovered, sometimes there is no way to avoid political risk, so marketers must be prepared to assume them or give up doing business in a particular market.
    Exchange-rate fluctuations inevitably cause problems, but for many years, most firms could take protective action to minimize their unfavorable effects.45)_________________________. Before rates were permitted to float, devaluations of major currencies were infrequent and usually could be anticipated, but exchange-rate fluctuations in the float system are daily affairs.

    [A]Political risk is an environmental concern for all businesses.
    [B]One unique risk encountered by the international marketer involves financial adjustments.
    [C]Commercial risks are handled essentially as normal credit risks encountered in day-to-day business.
    [D]The distributor tested the shipment and declared in to be below acceptable taste and texture standards.
    [E]        Floating exchange rates of the world' s major currencies have forced all marketers to be especially aware of exchange-rate fluctuations and the need to compensate for them in their financial planning. International Business Machine Corporation, for example, reported that exchange losses resulted in a dramatic 21.6 percent drop in their earnings in the third quarter to 1981.
    [F] Many international marketers go bankrupt each year because of exchange-rate fluctuation.
    [G] Anyone who gets into the stock market can not gloss over the risk brought by the political change.






























                                    Passage 9
    Mobile phones should carry a label if they proved to be a dangerous source of radiation, according to Robert Bell, a scientist. And no more mobile phone transmitter towers should be built until the long-term health effects of the electromagnetic radiation they emit are scientifically evaluated, he said. "Nobody's going to drop dead overnight but we should be asking for more scientific information," Robert Bell said at a conference on the health effects of low-level radiation. 41)___________________________________
    A report widely circulated among the public says that up to now scientists do not really know enough to guarantee there are no ill-effects on humans from electromagnetic radiation. According to Robert Bell, there are 3.3 million mobile phones in Australia alone and they are increasing by 2,000 a day. 42)________________________________.
    As well, there are 2,000 transmitter towers around Australia, many in high density residential areas. 43)__________________________________.
    Robert Bell suggests that until more research is completed the Government should ban construction of phone towers form within a 500 metre radius of school grounds, child care centers, hospitals, sports playing fields and residential areas with a high percentage of children. 44)_______________________________.He adds that there is also evidence that if cancer suffers are subjected to electromagnetic waves the growth rate of the disease accelerates.
    45)__________________________________.

    [A] He says there is emerging evidence that children absorb low-level radiation at a rate more than three times that of adults.
    [B] By the year 2000 it is estimated that Australia will have 8 million mobile phones: nearly one for every two people.
    [C] "If mobile phones are found to be dangerous, they should carry a warning label until proper shields can be decided," he said.
    [D] Then who finances the research? According to Robert Bell, it is reasonable for the major telephone companies to fund it. Besides, he also urges the Government to set up a wide-ranging inquiry into possible health effects.
    [E] For example, Telstra, Optus and Vodaphone build their towers where it is geographically suitable to them and disregard the need of the community. The electromagnetic radiation emitted from these towers may have already produced some harmful effects on the health of the residents nearby.
    [F] The conclusion is that mobile phones brings more harm than benefit.
    [G] The mobile phone also causes a lot of problems while offering people great convenience.

































                                     Passage 10
    Public relations is a broad set of planned communications about the company, including publicity releases, designed to promote goodwill and a favorable image.
    41)____________________________. Since public relations involves communications with stockholders, financial analysts, government officials, and other noncustomer groups, it is usually placed outside the marketing department, perhaps as a staff department or outside consulting firm reporting to top management. This organizational placement can be a limitation because the public relations department of consultant will likely not be in tune with marketing efforts. 42)______________________________. Although the basic purpose of public relations is to provide positive influence on the public image, this influence generally may be less than that provided by the other components of the public image mix.
    43)____________________________. Publicity on the other hand should not be divorced from the marketing department, as it can provide a useful adjunct to the regular advertising. 44)______________________________.
    The point we wish to emphasize is that a firm is deluding itself if it thinks its public relations function, whether within the company or an outside firm, can take care of public image problems and opportunities. 45)________________________________. Public relations and directed publicity may help highlight favorable newsworthy events, and may even succeed in toning down the worst of unfavorable publicity, but the other components of the public image mix create more lasting impressions.

    [A] Publicity may be in the form of news that have favorable overtones for the company initiated by the public relations department.
    [B] Furthermore, not all publicity is initiated by the firm; some can result from an unfavorable press as a reaction to certain actions or lack of actions that are controversial or even downright ill-advised.
    [C] Publicity then is part of public relations when it is initiated by the firm, usually in the form of press releases or press conferences.
    [D]Many factors impact on the public image. Many of these have to do with the way the firm does business, such as its product quality, the servicing and handling of complaints, and the tenor of the advertising.
    [E]        It surely causes heavy losses to the company.
    [F] Poor communication and no coordination may be the consequences.
    [G] The public relations, in fact, is developing some new relative concept in the past few years.

附录三  答案

               第一部分  英译汉全真试题材(1994年—2004年)答案
Passage 1
71.他们说,科学的发展与其说源于天才伟人的真知灼见,不如说源于改进了的技术和工具等更为变通的东西。
72.新学派的一位领袖人物坚持说:“简言之,我们所谓的科学革命,主要是指一系列器具的改进、发明和使用,这些改进、发明和使用使科学发展的范围无所不及。”
73.工具和技术本身作为根本性创新的源泉多年来在很大程度上被科学史学家和科学思想家们忽视了。
74.伽利略的最光辉的业绩在于他在1609年第一个把新发明的望远镜对准太空,以证实行星是围绕太阳旋转,而不是围绕地球(旋转)。
75.政府究竟是以减少对技术和经费投入来增加对纯理论科学的经费投入,还是相反,这往往取决于把哪一方看作是驱动力量。

Passage 2
71.把标准化测试作为抨击目标是错误的,因为在抨击这类测试时,批评者没有注意到其弊病来自测试使用者对测试不甚了解或使用不当。
72.这些预测在多大程度上为后来的表现所证实,这取决于所采用信息的数量、可靠性和适宜性,以及解释这些信息的技能和才智。
73.因此,在某一特定情况下,究竟是采用测试还是其他种类的信息,或是两者兼用,须凭有关相对效度的经验依据而定,也取决于诸如费用和有关来源等因素。
74.一般来说,当所要测定地特征能很精确界定时,测试最为有效;而当所要测定或预测的东西不能明确地界定时,测试的效果最差。
75.例如,测试并不能弥补明显的社会不公,因此不能说明一个物质条件差的年轻人,如果在较好的环境中成长的话,会有多大才干。

Passage 3
71.在这些原因中,有些完全是自然而然地来自社会需求。另一些则是由于科学在一定程度上自我加速而产生某些特定发展的必然结果。


72.这种趋势始于第二次世界大战期间,当时一些国家的政府得出结论:政府要向科研机构提出的具体要求通常是无法详尽预见的。
73.给某些与当前目标无关但将来可能产生影响的科研以支持,看来通常能有效地解决这一问题。
74.然而,世界就是如此,完美的体系一般而言是无法解决世上某些更加引人入胜的课题的。
75.同过去一样,将来必然会出现新的思维方式和新的思维对象,给完美以新的标准。

Passage 4
71.事实并非如此,因为提出这样的问题是以人们对人的权利有共同认识为基础的,而这种共同认识并不存在。
72.有些哲学家论证说,权利只存在于社会契约中,是责任与权益相交换的一部分。

74.这类人持极端看法,认为人与动物在各相关方面都不同,对待动物无须考虑道德问题。
75.这种反应不错,这是人类用道德观念进行推理的本能在起作用。这种本能应得到鼓励,而不应得到嘲弄。

Passage 5
71.但更为重要的是,这是科学家们所能观测到的最遥远的过去的景象。因为他们看到的是150 亿年前宇宙云的形状和结构。
72.巨大的宇宙云的存在,实际上是使20年代首创的大爆炸论得以保持其宇宙起源的主导地位所不可缺少的。
73.天体物理学家使用南极陆基探测器及球载仪器,正越来越近地观测这些云系也许不久会报告他们的观测结果。
74.假如那些小热点看上去同预计的一致,那意味着又一科学论说的胜利,这种论说即更完美的大爆炸论,亦称宇宙膨胀说。
75.宇宙膨胀说虽然听似奇特,但它是基本粒子物理学中的一些公认的理论在科学上看来可信的推论。许多天体学家七、八年来一直公认这一论说是正确的。

Passage 6
71.几乎每个历史学家对史学都有自己的界定,但现代史学家的实践最趋向于认为历史学是试图重现过去的重大史实并对其做出解释。


72.人们之所以关注历史研究方法论,主要是因为史学界内部意见不一,其次是因为外界并不认为历史是一门学问。
73.在这种转变中,历史学家研究历史时,那些解释新史料的新方法充实了传统的历史研究方法。
74.所谓方法论是指一般的历史研究中特有的概念,还是指历史探究中各个领域适用的研究手段,人们对此意见不一。
75  这种谬误同样存在于历史传统派和历史社科派;前者认为历史就是史学界内部和外部人士以各种史料来源的评论,后者认为历史的研究是具体方法的研究。

Passage 7
71. 在现代条件下,这需要程度不同的中央控制,从而就需要获得诸如经济学和运筹学等领域专家的协助。
72.再者,显而易见的是一个国家的经济实力与其工农业生产效率密切相关,而效率的提高则又有赖于各种科技人员的努力。
73.大众通讯的显著发展使各地的人们不断感到有新的需求,不断接触到新的习俗和思想,由于上述原因,政府常常得推出更多的革新。
74.在先期实现工业化的欧洲国家中,其工业化进程以及随之而来的各种深刻的社会结构变革,持续了大约一个世纪之久,而如今一个发展中国家在十年左右就可能完成这个过程。
75.由于人口的猛增或大量人口流动(现代交通工具使这种流动相对容易)造成的种种问题也会对社会造成新的压力。

Passage 8

73.皮尔林汇集世界各地数百位研究人员的成果,编制了一个独特的新技术干千年历,它列出了人们有望看到的数百项重大突破的发现的最迟日期。
74.皮尔林指出,这个突破仅仅是人机一体化的开始:“它是人机一体化漫长之路的第一步,最终会使人们在下世纪末之前就研制出安全电子化的仿真人。”
75.家用电器将会变得如此智能化,以至于控制和操作它们会引发一种新的心理疾病——厨房狂躁。


Passage 9
61.难题之一在于所谓的行为科学几乎全都依靠从心态、情感、性格特征、人性等方面去寻找行为的根源。
62.行为科学之所以发展缓慢,部分原因是用来解释行为的依据似乎往往是直接观察到的,部分原因是其他的解释方式一直难以找到。
63.自然选择在进化中的作用仅在一百多年前才得以阐明,而环境在塑造和保持久体行为时的选择作用则刚刚开始被认识和研究。
64.自由和尊严(它们)是传统理论定义的自主人所拥有的,是要求一个人对自己的行为负责并因其业绩而给予肯定的必不可少的前提。
65.(如果)这些问题得不到解决,研究行为的技术手段就会继续受到排斥,解释问题的唯一方式可能也随之继续受到排斥。

Passage 10
61.而且,人类还有能力改变自己的生存环境,从而让所有其它形态的生命服从人类自己独特的想法和想象。
62.社会科学是知识探索的一个分支,它力图像自然科学家研究自然现象那样,用理性的、有序的、系统的和冷静的方式研究人类及其行为。
63.强调收集第一手资料,加上在分析过去和现在文化形态时采用跨文化视角,使得这一研究成为一门独特并且非常很重要的社会科学。
64.泰勒:“……一个复合整体,它包括人作为社会成员所获得的信仰、艺术、道德、法律、风俗以及其它能力和习惯。
65.因此,人类学中的“文化”概念就像数学中“集”的概念一样,是一个抽象概念,它使大量的具体研究和认识成为可能。

Passage 11
61.希腊人认为,语言结构与思维过程之间存在着某种联系。这一观点在人们尚未认识到语言的千差万别以前就早已在欧洲扎下了根。
62.我们之所以感激他们(两位先驱),是因为在此之后,这些(土著)语言中有一些已经不复存在了,这是由于说这些语言的部族或是消亡了,或是被同化而丧失了自己的本族语言。
63.这些新近被描述的语言得到充分研究的欧洲和东南亚地区的语言往往差别显著,以至于有些学者甚至指责伯阿斯和萨丕尔编造了材料。
64.沃夫对语言与思维的关系很感兴趣,逐渐形成了这样的观点:在一个社会中,语言的结构决定习惯思维的结构。

65.沃夫进而相信某种类似语言决定论的观点,其极端说法是:语言禁锢思维,语言的语法结构能对一个社会的文化产生深远的影响。

第二部分  英译汉全真模拟试题(Passage 1――10)答案

Passage 1
71.在一所医学院任教十二年来,我获得的主要印象是:当今美国头号健康问题,甚至比爱滋病或癌症更为严重的问题,就是美国人不知道如何去认识健康与疾病。
72.我们不知道,人本只是用疼痛这种方式通知大脑,是我们的行为出了差错,而并非一定是健康有问题。
73.我们不去探查其缘由,却大服其药,把疼痛压下去,从而招致它以更大的威力再次发作。
74.我们在少年时代就形成了一种奇怪的观念:一种肉眼看不见的叫做细菌的妖怪不断的向我们进攻,我们必须常备不懈地保护自己不受伤害。

73.此外,公司需要很好的交流、顺畅地交换意见和文书业务往来以及灵活的机动性,这就需要有一种不同的设计形式。
74.美化环境的目的是为全体人员提供一个惬意的工作环境,同时既能经济地使用空间,又能提高管理部门改变办分室布局以适应工作方法之改变的能力。
75.通过严格的音响控制可以使用权噪音保持在可以接受的一般水平地上,从而提供幽静的听觉环境并抵挡外来噪音的侵扰。

Passage 3
71.许多作者学得书面语的种种常规阻碍了他们,为了生动地表达他们的感情、思想和想象,他们几乎不注意公认的语法和句子结构而自由地使用词汇。
72.任何一位伟大的实验艺术家都有极其熟悉他意欲打破的常规:他有能力用公认的方式写作,但是感到那些方式不足以表达他的思想。

73.在任何情况下,应试者都必须彻底了解惯用法,因测试者认为惯用法是公认形式中应该掌握的知识。
74.这种不借助母语直接用外语思维并且用外语表达思想的能力在学习外语的各个阶段都是十分重要的。
75.他会掌握这样一门艺术:合乎逻辑地解释事物、正确无误地书写、用正式语言演讲、自然地与人交谈以及形象生动地描绘事物。

Passage 4
71. 人们似乎对婴儿的死亡一直并不在意,尽管公开杀死婴儿遭到反对,但人们对忽略儿童致死的行为有时是纵容至少是容忍的。
72.尽管这类做法是出于什么原因尚不清楚:是出于经济困难这一典型原因,还是由于抚养非婚子的窘迫,亦或是对婴儿缺乏感情,但许多富有的婚后女性宁愿冒婴儿死亡率高的危险而不负责任地将其婴儿交给乳母这一事实说明了以上做法并非源于经济困难或者是惧怕来自社会的羞辱。
73.的确,在十六世纪,英美两国当局对杀婴案的处理较之其它形式的谋杀案要严厉得多,到十八世纪末,将婴儿送与乳母喂养的做法在英国已不再流行。
74.由于父母与孩子之间的关系被视为是神圣的,不容政府干涉,直到十九世纪末,英国的改革者们才得以说服立法者通过立法保护儿童免受父母虐待。

Passage 9
71.人类作为一个物种其惊人的成功在于人类大脑进化发展的结果,这种结果引发了许多事情,其中包括工具的使用和制造,通过逻辑推理、细心合作、运用语言解决问题的能力。
72.现代黑猩猩的大脑大概同数百万年前指挥最早猿人举止的大脑没有多大的区别。
73.黑猩猩的确不能把它的工具造成“常规或固定的形状”,但是史前人类在石器发展以前毫无疑问也是用棍子、稻草摸索着发展,在那个阶段他似乎也不可能将工具制成固定形状。
74.正是由于在大多数为头脑中工具与人类的密切联系,人类才特别关注可以把物体当工具使用的任何一种动物,但值得注意的是,这种能力就其自身而言并不表明这种动物有什么特别智慧。
75.当一种动物能够使自己操纵物体的能力适用于更广泛的范围,并且能够自发地使用物体解决只有通过工具才能解决的崭新问题,工具的使用和制造就肯定达到了具有进化意义的阶段。
