中央财经大学考博英语阅读模拟题精解As is the case in many cultures,the degree to which a minoritygroup was seen as different from the characteristics of the dominantmajority determined the extent of that group’s acceptance.Immigrants who were like the earlier settlers were accepted.The largenumbers of immigrants with significantly different characteristicstended to be viewed as a threat to basic American values and theAmerican way of life.This was particularly true of the immigrants who arrived by themillion during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.Most of them came from poverty-stricken nations of southern and Gengduo yuan xiao wan zheng zhen ti ji qi jie xi qing lian xi quan guomian fei zi xun dian hua:si ling ling liu liu ba liu jiu qi ba,huojia zi xun qq:qi qi er liu qi ba wu san qi eastern Europe.They spokelanguages other than English,and large numbers of them were Catholicsor Jews.Americans at the time were very fearful of this new flood ofimmigrants.They were afraid that these people were so accustomed tolives of poverty and dependence that they would not understand suchbasic American values as freedom,self-reliance and competition.There were so many new immigrants that they might even change the basicvalues of the nation in undesirable ways.Americans tried to meet what they saw as a threat to their valuesby offering English instruction for the new immigrants andcitizenship classes to teach them basic American beliefs.The immigrants,however,often felt that their American teachers disapproved of the traditions of their homeland.Moreover,learning about American values gave them little help in meeting their most important needs such as employment,food,and a place to live.Far more helpful to the new immigrants were the“political bosses”of the larger cities of the northeastern United States,where most of the immigrants first arrived.Those bosses saw to many of the practical needs of the immigrants and were more accepting of the different homeland traditions.In exchange for their help,the political bossed expected the immigrants to keep them in power by voting for them in elections.In spite of this,many scholars believe that the political bosses performed an important function in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.They helped to assimilate large numbers of disadvantaged white immigrants into the larger American culture.The fact that the United States had a rapidly expanding economy at the turn of the century made it possible for these new immigrants,often with the help of the bosses,to better their standard of living in the United States.As a result of these new opportunities and new rewards,immigrants came to accept most of the values of the larger American culture and were in turn accepted by the great majority of Americans.For white ethnic groups,therefore,it is generally true that their feeling of being a part of the larger culture,that is,“American”is much stronger than their feeling of belonging to a separate ethnic group—Irish,Italian,Polish,etc.(468words)26.A minority group’s acceptance to the country was determined by_____.A.the difference they showed from the majority.B.the time when they arrived at the new land.C.the background conditions they came from.D.the religious group to which they belonged.27.The immigrants’flushing in was considered a threat to American value mainly because_____.A.the immigrants came from poverty-stricken nations of southern and eastern Europe.B.the immigrants had been accustomed to poverty and dependence.C.the immigrants had different homeland traditions and other particular characteristics.D.the immigrants did not speak English.28.“Citizenship classes”(Para.4)were offered because Americans____.A.wanted to help the immigrants to solve their practical needs.B.would not accept any groups with different traditions.C.wanted the immigrants to deal with the threat to the American values.D.wanted the immigrants to learn about and to keep the American values.29.The political bosses helped the new immigrants for the main purpose of_____.A.showing off their political powers and advantages.B.getting support in elections.C.assimilating the minority into the majority.D.showing their generosity.30.The living standards of the new immigrants were improved in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries mainly because ____.A.they kept the political bosses in power.B.the political bosses gave them a lot of practical help.C.they had a much stronger feeling of being a part of the larger culture.D.there was a rapid growth in American economy at that time.Text626.A,细节题。

中央财经大学考博英语真题常见的一些动词及其时态时态一致(Tense Agreement):从句和主句谓语动词应在时态上保持一致。
(一)主句动词是过去时态时,从句动词相应采用某种过去时态例句:Darwin was convinced that loss of these tastes was not only a loss of happiness,but might possibly be injurious to the intellect, and more probably to the moral character.(2008年第50题)分析:该句是复合句,主干结构为Darwin was convinced that...。
宾语从句中有not only...but...引导的并列结构;短语be injurious to 的意思是“对……产生危害,有害……”。

译文:达尔文确信,没有了这些爱好不只是少了乐趣,而且可能会有损于一个人的思维能力,更有可能导致一个人道德品质的下降。
例句:Publication of the letter came two days after Lord Irvine caused a storm of media protest when he said the interpretation of privacy controls contained in European legislation would be left to judges rather than to Parliament.(选自2001年Cloze Test)分析:该句是复合句。
在when引导的从句中,the interpretation of privacy controls...作said的宾语;过去分词短语contained in European 作后置定语修饰the interpretation;主句部分为publication of the letter came;另一从句中的主语Lord Irvine与he同指一人。
中央财经大学考博英语阅读真题解析Text2When Liam McGee departed as president of Bank of America in August,his explanation was surprisingly straight up.Rather than cloakinghis exit in the usual vague excuses,he came right out and said hewas leaving“to pursue my goal of running a company.”Broadcastinghis ambition was“very much my decision,”McGee says.Within twoweeks,he was talking for the first time with the board of HartfordFinancial Services Group,which named him CEO and chairman onSeptember29.当八月份,Liam McGee以总裁的身份从美国银行离职的时候,他的解释出人意料的直白。
他没有忸怩的用平常的模糊的理由来遮掩他的离开,他很坦诚的讲他离开就是为了去追求他经营一家公司的目标。
McGee说宣扬自己的目标就是自己的决定。
两周后,他第一次和Hartford FinancialServices Group的董事会第一次会谈,这家公司在9月29日提名他为董事会主席和CEO.(PS:The way to contact yumingkaobo TEL:si ling ling-liu liu ba-liu jiu qi ba QQ:772678537) McGee says leaving without a position lined up gave him time toreflect on what kind of company he wanted to run.It also sent a clearmessage to the outside world about his aspirations.And McGee isn’talone.In recent weeks the No.2executives at Avon and AmericanExpress quit with the explanation that they were looking for a CEOpost.As boards scrutinize succession plans in response toshareholder pressure,executives who don’t get the nod also may wishto move on.A turbulent business environment also has senior managerscautious of letting vague pronouncements cloud their reputations.他说在离开的时候并没有找好后面的职位(下家),使他有时间去反思他到底想去经营一家什么样的公司。

而此专业又分为2个主要研究方向,分别为:01.会计理论与方法、02.财务理论与方法两个主要的研究方向。
二、联系导师:在初步定好考博学校之后,就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系,询问是否有招生名额,能否报考,这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。
大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。
因为太早,学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定,育明考博2014届学员成绩喜报 英语各类课程学员数873人 专业课各类课程学员239人 专业课教学测评中学员零差评 英语一对一全程32名学员全部过线 第七期考博英语集训营四个班97名学员90人过线报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额;太晚的话,怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。
一般情况下,导师对一个学生很中意的话,后来联系的学生,导师一般也不会答应其报考了。
在此说点题外话,联系导师的过程中,如果读研期间的导师有关系,可以尽量利用。
如果没有,也没关系,凭着自己的本事也是可以和考博导师很好的沟通的,这就要看自己了。
通常跟导师初次联系,都是发邮件。
导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种:(1)、欢迎报考。
这种答复最笼统,说明不了问题。
我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通,看看具体的进展,避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。
(2)、名额有限,可以报考,但有竞争。
很多人说这样的回复不满意,认为希望很小一般会被刷。
其实这样还是比较好的一种回答,最起码导师没有骗你而且给你机会去证明自己,考的好就可以上。
(3)、你的研究方向和我一样......各种一大堆他的研究方向和你相关,欢迎报考什么的话。
不可否认,这是最好的情况,你可以放心的去考,一般不会出问题的。
中财考博辅导班:中央财经大学考博英语经验分享对于中财考博生来说,总会想要了解更多的考博英语备考经验,对此,启道中财考博辅导班总结相关考博英语经验如下,作为分享。
俗话说,考博要翻身,英语定乾坤。
英语的重要性不言而喻。
考博英语的复习是一个从基础不断提升的长期的过程,因此,启道仲裁考博辅导班老师兼职考博英语的复习要有针对性,要制定一个详细有效的复习计划,并计划执行,这样才能在有限的时间内有效的提高复习效果,到达复习的目的。
那么英语全年的复习该如何安排呢?对此,中财考博辅导班老师详细来讲述。
第一、词汇的考察。
考博属于选拔性考试,是从广大的毕业生中选拨出特别优秀的,继续深造。
换句话说,它的目的是为了让更多的考生不过。
因此考博考的更多的是词汇的深度,即你对一个单词掌握到了什么程度。
词汇的深度的考察包括两个方面,一考察熟词僻义,一是考察构词法,即通过词根词缀扩展单词。
因此,中财考博辅导班老师建议:词汇的复习要有针对性,把考博规定10000个单词划分出个三六九等来,区别对待。
对于你认为熟悉的初高中词汇,要重点记忆它的第二个,第三个,甚至第四个你不熟悉的意思,这些是考博中障碍最大的“熟悉的陌生人”。
第二语法的考察。
因为考博不单独纯粹考语法,像高中的选择题一样。
考博语法的学习目的是为了能够理解句子,识别句子结构。
所以考博语法说白了就是理解句子,理解句子结构。
句子分为简单句和非简单句。
简单句主要考察五大基本句型和四大成分。
五大基本句型即主谓,主谓宾,主谓宾宾,主谓宾补和主系表。
四大成分也就是定语,状语,同位语和插入语。
非简单句分为并列句和复合句。
并列句又分为句中并列和句间并列。
复合句包括三大从句和一些特殊结构。
三大从句分别是名词性从句,形容词性从句和副词性从句。
名词性从句包括主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句和同位语从句,。
形容词性从句也就是常说的定语。
从句,分为限定性定语从句和非限定性定语从句。
副词性从句也就是状语从句,包括九大类:时间、地点、原因、结果、目的、方式、让步、条件和比较。

Choose the best word for each numbered blank and mark A, B, C or D on Answer Sheet.The first two stages in the development of civilized man were probably the invention of primitive weapons and the discovery of fire, although nobody knows exactly when he acquired the use of _31_.The 32 of language is also obscure. No doubt it began very gradually. Animals have a few cries that serve 33 signals, 34 even the highest apes have not been found able to pronounce words, 35 with the most intensive professional instruction. The superior brain of man is apparently 36 for the mastering of speech. When man became sufficiently intelligent, we mustsuppose that he 37 the number of cries for different purposes. It was a great day 38 he discovered that speech could be used for narrative. There are those who think that 39 picture language preceded oral language. A man 40 a picture on the wall of his cave to show 41 direction he had gone, or 42 prey he hoped to catch. Probably picture language and oral language developed side by side. I am inclined to think that language 43 the most important single factor in the development of man.Two important stages came not 44 before the dawn of written history. The first was the domestication of animals; the second was agriculture. Agriculture was 45 in human progress to which subsequently there was nothing comparable 46 our own machine age. Agriculture made possible 47 immense increase in the number of the human species in the regions where it could be successfully practiced. 48 were, at first, only those in which nature fertilized the soil 49 each harvest. Agriculture met with violent resistance from the pastoral nomads, but the agricultural way of life prevailed in the end 50 the physical comforts it provided.Part IV Reading Comprehension (50%)Directions:Read the following four passages. Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet.Passage 1The ideal companion machine – the computer – would not only look, feel, and sound friendly but would also be programmed to behave in a pleasant manner. Those qualities that make interaction with other people enjoyable would be imitated as closely as possible, and the machine would appear to be charming, and easygoing. Its informal conversational style would make interaction comfortable, and yet the machine would remain slightly unpredictable and therefore interesting. In its first encounter it might be somewhat hesitant, but as it came to know the user it would progress to a more relaxed and intimate style. The machine would not be a passive participant but would add its own suggestions, information, and opinions; it would sometimes take the initiative in developing or changing the topic and would have a personality of its own.Friendships are not made in a day, and the computer would be more acceptable as a friend if it imitated the gradual changes that occur when one person is getting to know another. At an appropriate time it might also express the kind of affection that stimulates attachment and intimacy. The whole process would be accomplished in a subtle way to avoid giving an impression of over-familiarity that would be likely to produce irritation. After experiencing a wealth of powerful, well-timed friendship indicators, the user would be very likely to accept the computer as far more than a machine and might well come to regard it as a friend.An artificial relationship of this type would provide many of the benefits that people obtain from interpersonal friendships. The machine would participate in interesting conservation that could continue from previous discussions. It would have a familiarity with the user’s life as revealed in earlier contact, and it would be understanding and good-humored. The computer’s own personality would be lively and impressive, and it would develop in response to that of the user. With features such as these, the machine might indeed become a very attractive social partner.51. Which of the following is NOT a feature of the ideal companion machine?A. Active i n c ommunication.B. Attractive i n pe rsonality.C. Enjoyable i n pe rformance.D. Unpredictable i n be havior.52. The computer would develop friendships with humans in a(n) ________ way.A. qui c kB. un predictableC. pr o ductiveD. i n conspicuous53. Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned when the passage discusses the benefits of artificial relationships?A. Being able to pick up an interesting conversation.B. Being sensitive to earlier contract.C. Being ready to learn about the person’s life.D. Having a pleasant and adaptable personality.54. Throughout the passage, the author is ________ in his attitude toward the computer.A. favourableB. criticalC. vagueD. hesitant55. Which might be the most appropriate title of the passage?A. Artificial relationships.B. How to form intimate relationships.C. The affectionate m achine.D. Humans a nd c omputers.Passage 2The uniqueness of the Japanese character is the result of two seemingly contradictory forces: the strength of traditions and selective receptivity to foreign achievements and inventions. As early as the 1860s, there were counter movements to the traditional orientation. Yukichi Fukuzawa the most eloquent spokesman of Japan’s “Enlightenment”, claimed “The Confucian civilization of the East seems to me to lack two things possessed by Western civilization: science in the material sphere and a sense of independence in the spiritual sphere.” Fukuzawa’s great influence is found in the free and individualistic philosophy of the Education Code of 1872, but he was not able to prevent the government from turning back to the canons of Confucian thought in the Imperial Rescript of 1890. Another interlude of relative liberalism followed World War I, when the democratic idealism of President Woodrow Wilson had an important impact on Japanese intellectuals and, especially students: but more important was the Leninist ideology of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. Again in the early 1930s, nationalism and militarism became dominant, largely as a result of failing economic conditions.Following the end of World War II, substantial changes were undertaken in Japan to liberate the individual from authoritarian restraints. The new democratic value system was accepted by many teachers, students, intellectuals, and old liberals, but it was not immediately embraced by the society as a whole. Japanese traditions were dominated by group values, and notions of personal freedom and individual rights were unfamiliar.Today, democratic processes are clearly evident in the widespread participation of the Japanese people in social and political life: yet, there is no universally accepted and stable value system. Values are constantly modified by strong infusions of Western ideas, both democratic and Marxist. School textbooks expound democratic principles, emphasizing equality over hierarchy and rationalism over tradition; but in practice these values are often misinterpreted and distorted, particularly by the youth who translate the individualistic and humanistic goals of democracy into egoistic and materialistic ones.Most Japanese people have consciously rejected Confucianism, but vestiges of the old order remain. An important feature of relationships in many institutions such as political parties, large corporations, and university faculties is the oyabun-kobun or parent-child relation. A party leader, supervisor, or professor, in return for loyalty, protects those subordinate to him and takes general responsibility for their interests throughout their entire lives, an obligation that sometimes evenextends to arranging marriages. The corresponding loyalty of the individual to his patron reinforces his allegiance to the group to which they both belong. A willingness to cooperate with other members of the group and to support without qualification the interests of the group in all its external relations is still a widely respected virtue. The oyabun-kobun creates ladders of mobility which an individual can ascend, rising as far as abilities permit, so long as he maintains successful personal ties with a superior in the vertical channel, the latter requirement usually taking precedence over a need for exceptional competence. As a consequence, there is little horizontal relationship between people even within the same profession.56. The author is mainly concerned withA. explaining the influence of Confucianism on modern JapanB. analyzing the reasons for Japan’s postwar economic successC. discussing some important determinants of Japanese valuesD. describing managerial practices in Japanese industry57. Which of the following is most like the relationship of the oyabun-kobun described in the passage?A. A political candidate and the voting public.B. A gifted scientist and his studentC. Two brothers who are partners in a businessD. A judge presiding at the trial of a criminal defendant58. According to the passage, Japanese attitudes are influenced by the following factors except ________.A. democratic ideals.B. elements of modern Western culture.C. remnants of an earlier social structure.D. prewar economic success.59. It can be inferred that the Imperial Rescript of 1890A. was a protest by liberals against the lack of individual liberty in Japan.B. marked a return in government policies to conservative valuesC. implemented the ideals set forth in the Education Code of 1872.D. was influenced by the Leninist ideology of the Bolshevik Revolution.60. The tone of the passage can best be described asA. neutral and objectiveB. critical and demandingC. enthusiastic a nd s upportiveD. s keptical a nd que stioningPassage 3A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.If an economist were asked which of 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 declining incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions about earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go up, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The expectations of priceincreases 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. 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.”The investigations mentioned above were carried on in America. 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 conducive to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology.61. According to the passage, if one wants to predict the way consumers will spend their money, he should ________.A. rely on traditional assumptions about earning and spendingB. try to encourage or discourage consumers to spend moneyC. carry out investigations on consumer behavior and obtain data on consumers’ incomes andmoney spending motivesD. do researches in consumer psychology in a laboratory62. According to paragraph 2, research surveys have proved that ____.A. price increases always stimulate people to hasten to buy thingsB. rising prices may make people put off their purchase of certain thingsC. women are more sensitive to the rising in prices than menD. the expectations of price increases often make buyers feel angry63. The results of the investigations on consumer psychology carried out in America were ____ those of the investigations made at the same time in Great Britain.A. somewhat different fromB. exactly the same asC. m uch be tter t h anD. not a s good a s64. From the results of the surveys, the writer of this article ____.A. concludes that the saving and spending patterns in Great Britain are better than those inAmericaB. concludes that the consumers always expect prices to remain stableC. concludes that maintaining stable prices is a correct business policyD. does not draw any conclusion65. Which of the following statements is always true according to the surveys mentioned in the passage?A. Consumers will put off buying things if they expect prices to decrease.B. Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increase.C. The price condition has an influence on consumer behavior.D. Traditional assumptions about earning and spending are reliable.Passage 4Over the last 25 years, British society has changed a great deal – or at least many parts of it have. In some ways, however, very little has changed, particularly where attitudes are concerned.Ideas about social class – whether a person is “working-class” or “middle-class” – are one area in which changes have been extremely slow.In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less than middle-class people, such as teachers and doctors. As a result of this and also of the fact that workers’ jobs were generally much less secure, distinct differences in life-styles and attitudes came into existence. The typical working man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, having given his wife her “housekeeping”, would go out and squander the rest on beer and betting.The stereotype of what a middle-class man did with his money was perhaps nearer the truth. He was – and still is – inclined to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a house as a top priority, but he also considered the education of his children as extremely important. Both of these provided him and his family with security. Only in very few cases did workers have the opportunity (or the education and training) to make such long-term plans.Nowadays, a great deal has changed. In a large number of cases factory workers earn as much, if not more, than their middle-class supervisors. Social security and laws to improve job-security, combined with a general rise in the standard of living since the mid-fifties of the 20th century, have made it less necessary than before to worry about “tomorrow”. Working-class people seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority they had in the past. In fact there has been a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-classes to feel slightly ashamed of their position.The changes in both life-styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen amongst younger people. They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes, they spend their money in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-term plans when necessary. There seems to be much less difference than in precious generations. Nevertheless, we still have a wide gap between the well-paid (whatever the type of job they may have) and the low-paid. As long as this gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new conflicts and jealousies will emerge, or rather than the old conflicts will reappear, but between different groups.66. Which of the following is seen as the causes of class differences in the past?A. L ife s tyle a nd oc cupation.B. Attitude a nd i n come.C. Income and job security.D. Job security a nd hobbi e s.67. The writer seems to suggest that the description of ____ is closer to truth.A. middle-class w ays of s pending m oneyB. working-class ways of spending the weekendC. working-class drinking habitsD. middle-class attitudes68. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a typical feature of the middle-class?A. D esiring f o r s ecurity.B. M aking l o ng-term plans.C. Having priorities in life.D. Saving money.69. Working-class people’s sense of security increased as a result of all the following factors EXCEPT ________.A. be tter s ocial s ecurityB. m ore j o b oppor t unitiesC. higher l i ving s tandardD. better legal protection70. Which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A. Changes are slowly taking place in all sectors of the British society.B. The gap between working-class and middle-class young people is narrowing.C. Differences in income will remain but those in occupation will disappear.D. Middle-class people may sometimes feel inferior to working-class people.Passage 5There have been a great many explanations, some of them very complicated, of the great demand for college education in America, and they are probably all true in some measure. An oversimplified explanation is that over the last fifty years, three generations of the parents of growing children have realized that better education meant better living and, as individuals, and through group action, have pushed and urged that facilities be made available. Happily the nation has been able to provide the colleges, and the students have been admitted to them in ever-increasing numbers. And the consumers of the products of education – government, business in all its forms, and labor – all welcomed the expansion of opportunity because it simplified their problems of employing new workers, and training and placing them.Forty years ago, when the parents of today’s high-school seniors were themselves in school, a high-school education was enough to get ready for most occupations, and, for those occupations, job training took place either in the high school or on the job. A college degree was necessary only for those who wanted to be ministers, doctors, or lawyers, high school teachers, scientists, or scholars. Today most jobs that offer opportunity for growth and advancement are open only to college graduates, for colleges have assumed the task of offering the specific preparation that is needed. There is very little job training in high schools today. Instead they concentrate on preparing students for college.What has happened is that, as business, industry, government, and the professions have expanded, they have developed a need for many varieties of specialists. Colleges and universities, responding to these developments, have organized new programs of study to train these specialists, and in turn these new programs draw students who would not have gone to college forty years ago.For example, almost all of the college programs in business and commerce have developed and the more advanced programs in agriculture and home economics. And there is a long list of other offerings that were not available except in a few experimental programs. Accounting, social science, various forms of administration, public hospital and public health medical technology, and advanced nurses training have been developed in higher education within those same forty years. And as evidence that the process is still continuing, we can see the emergence of atomic technology, unclear engineering, computer technology, and, most recently, international administration.71. In Paragraph 1, the word “consumers” most probably refers to ____.A. high-school graduatesB. college graduatesC. those who employ college graduatesD. those who consume commercial goods72. According to paragraph 2, the parents of today’s high-school students ____.A. did not receive enough high-school educationB. received a level of education which is almost equivalent to that of today’s collegeC. received a level of education high enough for most occupations 40 years agoD. who received only high-school education are not qualified for such professional work as ministers, doctors or lawyers73. Which of the following does not seem to be an explanation of the great demand for collegeeducation in America?A. The parents have realized that higher education means a higher standard of living.B. A high-school education is not “high” enough for most occupations.C. A great need has been developed for many varieties of specialists.D. High schools concentrate mainly on preparing students for colleges.74. Which of the following specialties and programs was the least possibly available in America colleges and universities 40 years ago?A. I n ternational a dministration.B. Computer s cience a nd t e chnology.C. Nuclear engineering.D. Advanced nur s e t r aining.75. What is the theme of the passage?A. A general survey of American colleges and universities.B. The main causes for the development of American higher education.C. The historical development of American colleges and universities.D. The higher education, the better living condition.Part V Translation (10%)Section ADirections:Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.

Answer the questions below each pas sage bychoosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answer on the Answer Sheet. Passage 1The ideal companion machine –the computer –would not only look, feel, and sound friendlybut would also be programmed to behave in a pleasant manner. Those qualities that makeinteraction with other people enjoyable would be imitated as closely as possible, and the machinewould appear to be charming, and easygoing. Its informal conversationa l style would makeinteraction comfortable, and yet the machine would remain slightly unp redictable and thereforeinteresting. In its first encounter it might be somewhat hesitant, bu t as it came to know the user itwould progress to a more relaxed and intimate style. The machine wou ld not be a passiveparticipant but would add its own suggestions, information, and opinio ns; it would sometimes takethe initiative in developing or changing the topic and would have a personality of its own.Friendships are not made in a day, and the computer would be more acceptable as a friend ifit imitated the gradual changes that occur when one person is gettin g to know another. At anappropriate time it might also express the kind of affection that stimulates attachment and intimacy.The whole process would be accomplished in a subtle way to avoid gi ving an impression ofover-familiarity that would be likely to produce irritation. After exp eriencing a wealth of powerful,well-timed friendship indicators, the user would be very likely to ac cept the computer as far morethan a machine and might well come to regard it as a friend.An artificial relationship of this type would provide many of th e benefits that people obtainfrom interpersonal friendships. The machine would participate in intere sting conservation thatcould continue from previous discussions. It would have a familiarity with the user’s life asrevealed in earlier contact, and it would be understanding and good-h umored. The computer’s ownpersonality would be lively and impressive, and it would develop in response to that of the user.With features such as these, the machine might indeed become a very attractive social partner.51. Which of the following is NOT a feature of the ideal companion machine?A. Active in communication.B. Attractive inpersonality.C. Enjoyable in performance.D. Unpredicta ble in behavior.52. The computer would develop friendships with humans in a(n) ______ __ way.A. quickB. unpredictableC. productiveD. inconspicuous53. Which of the following aspects is NOT mentioned when the passage discusses the benefits ofartificial relationships?A. Being able to pick up an interesting conversation.B. Being sensitive to earlier contract.C. Being ready to learn about the person’s life.D. Having a pleasant and adaptable personality.54. Throughout the passage, the author is ________ in his attitude t oward the computer.A. favourableB. criticalC. vagueD. hesitant55. Which might be the most appropriate title of the passage?A. Artificial relationships.B. How to form intimate relationships.C. The affectionate machine.D. Humans and computers.Passage 2The uniqueness of the Japanese character is the result of two seemingly contradictory forces: the strength of traditions and select ive receptivity to foreign achievements and inventions. As early as t he 1860s, there were counter movements to the traditional orientation. Yukichi Fukuzawa the most eloquent spokesman of Japan’s “Enlightenment”, claimed “The Confucian civilization of the East seems to me to lack two things possessed by Western civilization: sc ience in the material sphere and a sense of independence in the spi ritual sphere.”Fukuzawas great influence is found in the free and individualistic philosophy of the Education Code of 1872, but he wasnot able to prevent the government from turning back to the canons of Confucian thought in the Imperial Rescript of 1890. Another inte rlude of relative liberalism followed World War I, when the democrati c idealism of President Woodrow Wilson had an important impact on Ja panese intellectuals and, especially students: but more important was the Leninist ideology of the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution. Again in the early 1930s, nationalism and militarism became dominant, largely as a result of failing economic conditions.Following the end of World War II, substantial changes were u ndertaken in Japan to liberate the individual from authoritarian restr aints. The new democratic value system was accepted by many teachers, students, intellectuals, and old liberals, but it was not immediatel y embraced by the society as a whole. Japanese traditions were domin ated by group values, and notions of personalfreedom and individual rights were unfamiliar.Today, democratic processes are clearly evident in the widespre ad participation of the Japanese people in social and political life: yet, there is no universally accepted and stable value system. Valu es are constantly modified by strong infusions of Western ideas, both democratic and Marxist. School textbooks expound democratic principles , emphasizing equality over hierarchy and rationalism over tradition; but in practice these values are often misinterpreted and distorted, particularly by the youth who translate the individualistic and humani stic goals of democracy intoegoistic and materialistic ones.Most Japanese people have consciously rejected Confucianism, but vestiges of the old orderremain. An important feature of relationships in many institutions suc h as political parties, large corporations, and university faculties is the oyabun-kobun or parent-child relation. A party leader, superviso r, or professor, in return for loyalty, protects those subordinate to him and takes general responsibility for their interests throughout their entire lives, an obligation that sometimes even extends to arra nging marriages. The corresponding loyalty of the individual to his p atron reinforces his allegiance to the group to which they both belo ng. A willingness to cooperate with other members of the group and to support without qualification the interests of the group in all i ts external relations is still a widely respected virtue. The oyabun-kobun creates ladders of mobility which an individual can ascend, ris ing as far as abilities permit, so long as he maintains successful personal ties with a superior in the vertical channel, the latter re quirement usually takingprecedence over a need for exceptional competence. As a consequence, there is little horizontal relationship between people even within the same profession.56. The author is mainly concerned withA. explaining the influence of Confucianism on modern JapanB. analyzing the reasons for Japan’s postwar economic successC. discussing some important determinants of Japanese valuesD. describing managerial practices in Japanese industry57. Which of the following is most like the relationship of the oya bun-kobun described in thepassage?A. A political candidate and the voting public.B. A gifted scientist and his studentC. Two brothers who are partners in a businessD. A judge presiding at the trial of a criminal defendant58. According to the passage, Japanese attitudes are influenced by the following factors except________.A. democratic ideals.B. elem ents of modern Western culture.C. remnants of an earlier social structure.D. prewar ec onomic success.59. It can be inferred that the Imperial Rescript of 1890A. was a protest by liberals against the lack of individual libe rty in Japan.B. marked a return in government policies to conservative valuesC. implemented the ideals set forth in the Education Code of 1872.D. was influenced by the Leninist ideology of the Bolshevik Revol ution.60. The tone of the passage can best be described asA. neutral and objectiveB. critical and demandingC. enthusiastic and supportiveD. skeptical and ques tioningPassage 3A scientist who does research in economic psychology and who wants to predict the way in which consumers will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must obtain data both on resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending.If an economist were asked which of 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 declining incomes were next and people with stable inco mes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions ab out earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumption is that if people who have money expect prices to go u p, they will postponebuying. 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 inte rview 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 planni ng to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. 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.” The investigations mentione d above were carried on in America. Investigations conducted at the same time in Great Britain, however, yielded results that were morein agreement with traditional assumptions about saving and spending pa tterns. The condition most conducive to spending appears to be price stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintainingstable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychol ogy.61. According to the passage, if one wants to predict the way c onsumers will spend their money,he should ________.A. rely on traditional assumptions about earning and spendingB. try to encourage or discourage consumers to spend moneyC. carry out investigations on consumer behavior and obtain da ta on consumers’incomes andmoney spending motivesD. do researches in consumer psychology in a laboratory62. According to paragraph 2, research surveys have proved that _ ___.A. price increases always stimulate people to hasten to buy t hingsB. rising prices may make people put off their purchase of c ertain thingsC. women are more sensitive to the rising in prices than menD. the expectations of price increases often make buyers feel angry63. The results of the investigations on consumer psychology carri ed out in America were ____those of the investigations made at the same time in Great Brita in.A. somewhat different fromB. exac tly the same asC. much better thanD. not as good as64. From the results of the surveys, the writer of this article ____.A. concludes that the saving and spending patterns in Great B ritain are better than those inAmericaB. concludes that the consumers always expect prices to remain stableC. concludes that maintaining stable prices is a correct busin ess policyD. does not draw any conclusion65. Which of the following statements is always true according to the surveys mentioned in thepassage?A. Consumers will put off buying things if they expect prices to decrease.B. Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect pr ices to increase.C. The price condition has an influence on consumer behavior.D. Traditional assumptions about earning and spending are relia ble.Passage 4Over the last 25 years, British society has changed a gre at deal –or at least many parts of ithave. In some ways, however, very little has changed, particularly where attitudes are concerned.Ideas about social class –whether a person is “working-class”or “middle-class”–are one area inwhich changes have been extremely slow.In the past, the working-class tended to be paid less tha n middle-class people, such asteachers and doctors. As a result of this and also of the fact that workers’jobs were generally muchless secure, distinct differences in life-styles and attitudes came into existence. The typicalworking man would collect his wages on Friday evening and then, it was widely believed, havinggiven his wife her “housekeeping”, would go out and squander th e rest on beer and betting.The stereotype of what a middle-class man did with his mo ney was perhaps nearer the truth.He was –and still is –inclined to take a longer-term view. Not only did he regard buying a houseas a top priority, but he also considered the education of his children as extremely important. Bothof these provided him and his family with security. Only in very few cases did workers have theopportunity (or the education and training) to make such long-term plans.Nowadays, a great deal has changed. In a large number of cases factory workers earn asmuch, if not more, than their middle-class supervisors. Social sec urity and laws to improvejob-security, combined with a general rise in the standard of liv ing since the mid-fifties of the 20thcentury, have made it less necessary than before to worry about “to morrow”. Working-classpeople seem slowly to be losing the feeling of inferiority they had in the past. In fact there hasbeen a growing tendency in the past few years for the middle-cla sses to feel slightly ashamed oftheir position.The changes in both life-styles and attitudes are probably most easily seen amongst youngerpeople. They generally tend to share very similar tastes in music and clothes, they spend theirmoney in having a good time, and save for holidays or longer-ter m plans when necessary. Thereseems to be much less difference than in precious generations. Ne vertheless, we still have a widegap between the well-paid (whatever the type of job they may hav e) and the low-paid. As long asthis gap exists, there will always be a possibility that new con flicts and jealousies will emerge, orrather than the old conflicts will reappear, but between different groups.66. Which of the following is seen as the causes of class diffe rences in the past?A. Life style and occupation.B. Atti tude and income.C. Income and job security.D. Job secur ity and hobbies.67. The writer seems to suggest that the description of ____ is closer to truth.A. middle-class ways of spending moneyB. working-class ways of spending the weekendC. working-class drinking habitsD. middle-class attitudes68. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a t ypical feature of the middle-class?A. Desiring for security.B. M aking longterm plans.C. Having priorities in life.D. Sa ving money.69. Working-class people’s sense of security increased as a result of all the following fact orsEXCEPT ________.A. better social securityB. more job opportunitiesC. higher living standardD. b etter legal protection70. Which of the following statement is INCORRECT?A. Changes are slowly taking place in all sectors of the Bri tish society.B. The gap between working-class and middle-class young people is narrowing.C. Differences in income will remain but those in occupation will disappear.D. Middle-class people may sometimes feel inferior to working-c lass people.Passage 5There have been a great many explanations, some of them v ery complicated, of the greatdemand for college educationin America, and they are probably all true in some measure. An oversimplified explanation is that over the last fifty years, thre e generations of the parents ofgrowing children have realized that better education meant better living and, as individuals, andthrough group action, have pushed and urged that facilities be ma de available. Happily the nationhas been able to provide the colleges, and the students have bee n admitted to them inever-increasing numbers. And the consumers of the products of educ ation –government, businessin all its forms, and labor –all welcomed the expansion of op portunity because it simplified theirproblems of employing new workers, and training and placing them.Forty years ago, when the parents of today’s high-school seniors were themselves in school, ahigh-school education was enough to get ready for most occupations , and, for those occupations,job training took place either in the high school or on the job . A college degree was necessary onlyfor those who wanted tobe ministers, doctors, or lawyers, high school teachers, scientists , orscholars. Today most jobs that offer opportunity for growth and a dvancement are open only tocollege graduates, for colleges have assumed the task of offering the specific preparation that isneeded. There is very little job training in high schools today. Instead they concentrate onpreparing students for college.What has happened is that, as business, industry, government, andthe professions haveexpanded, they have developed a need for many varieties of specia lists. Colleges and universities,responding to these developments, have organized new programs of s tudy to train these specialists,and in turn these new programs draw students who would not have gone to college forty yearsago.For example, almost all of the college programs in business and commerce have developedand the more advanced programs in agriculture and home economics. And there is a long list ofother offerings that were not available except in a few experimen tal programs. Accounting, socialscience, various forms of administration, public hospital and publi c health medical technology,and advanced nurses training have been developed in higher educati on within those same fortyyears. And as evidence that the process is still continuing, we can see the emergence of atomictechnology, unclear engineering, computer technology, and, most rece ntly, internationaladministration.71. In Paragraph 1, the word “consumers”most probably refers t o ____.A. high-school graduatesB. colle ge graduatesC. those who employ college graduatesD. those who consume commercial goods72. According to paragraph 2, the parents of today’s high-school students ____.A. did not receive enough high-school educationB. received a level of education which is almost equivalent to that of today’s collegeC. received a level of education high enough for most occupat ions 40 years agoD. who received only high-school education are not qualified f or such professional work asministers, doctors or lawyers73. Which of the following does not seem to be an explanation of the great demand for collegeeducation in America?A. The parents have realized that higher education means a hi gher standard of living.B. A high-school education is not “high”enough for most oc cupations.C. A great need has been developed for many varieties of spe cialists.D. High schools concentrate mainly on preparing students for c olleges.74. Which of the following specialties and programs was the least possibly available in Americacolleges and universities 40 years ago?A. Iternational administration.B. Comput er science and technology.C. Nuclear engineering.D. Ad vanced nurse training.75. What is the theme of the passage?A. A general survey of American colleges and universities.B. The main causes for the development of American higher edu cation.C. The historical development of American colleges and universi ties.D. The higher education, the better living condition.Part V Translation (10%)Section ADirections:Translate the following paragraph into Chinese. Write you r translation on AnswerSheet.

know of.It serves directly to assist a rapid distribotion of goods at reasonable price,thereby establishing a firm home market and so making it possible to provide for export at competitive prices.By drawing attention to new ideas it helps enormously to raise standards of living.By helping to increase demand it ensures an increased need for labour,and is therefore an effective way to fight unemployment. It lowers the costs of many services:without advertisements your daily newspaper would cost four times as much,the price of your television licence would need to be doubled,and travel by bus or tube would cost20per cent more.And perhaps most important of all, advertising provides a guarantee of reasonable value in the products and services you buy.Apart from the fact that twenty-seven acts of Parliament gov-ern the terms of advertising,no regular advertiser dare promote a product that fails to live up to the promise of his advertisements.He might fool some people for a little while through misleading advertising.He will not do so for long,for mercifully the public has the good sense not to buy the inferior article more than once.If you see an article consistently advertised,it is the surest proof I know that the article does what is claimed for it, and that it represents good value.Advertising does more for the material benefit of the community than any other force I can think of.There is one more point I feel I ought to touch on.Recently I heard a well-known television personality declare that he was against advertising because it persuades rather than informs.He was drawing excessively fine distinctions.Of course advertising seeks to persuade.If its message were confined merely to information-and that in itself would be difficult if not impossible to achieve,for even a detail such as the choice of the colour of a shirt is subtly persuasive――advertising would be so boring that no one would pay any attention.But perhaps that is what the well-known television personality wants.51.By the first sentence of the passage the author means that__.(A)he is fairly familiar with the cost of advertising(B)everybody knows well that advertising is money consuming(C)advertising costs money like everything else(D)it is worthwhile to spend money on advertising52.In the passage,which of the following is NOT included in the advantages of advertising?(A)Securing greater fame.(B)Providing more jobs.(C)Enhancing living standards.(D)Reducing newspaper cost.53.The author deems that the well-known TV personality is_.(A)very precise in passing his judgement on advertising(B)interested in nothing but the buyers'attention(C)correct in telling the difference between persuasion and information(D)obviously partial in his views on advertising54.In the author's opinton,__.(A)advertising can seldom bring material benefit to man by providing.(B)advertising informs people of new ideas rather than wins them over.(C)there is nothing wrong with advertising in persuading the buyer.(D)the buyer is not interested in getting information from an advenisement.Passage2There are two basic ways to see growth:one as a product,the other as a process.People have generally viewed personal growth as an external result or product that can easily be identified and measured. The worker who gets a promotion,the student whose grades improve, the foreigner who learns a new language-all these are examples of people who have measurable results to show for their efforts.By contrast,the process of personal growth is much more difficult to determine,since by definition it is a journey and not the specific signposts or landmarks along the way.The process is not the roaditsetf,but rather the attitudes and feellings people have,their caution or courge,as they encounter new experiences and unexpected obstacles.In this process,the journey never really ends;there are always new ways to experience the world,new ideas to try,new challenges to accept.In order to grow,to travel new roads,people need to have a willingness to take risks,to confront the unknown,and to accept the possibility that they may"fail"at first.How we see our-selves as we try a new way of being is essential to our abitity to grow.Do we perceive ourselves as quick and curious?If so,then we tend to take more chances and to be more open to unfamiliar experiences.Do we think we're shy and indecisive?Then our sense of timidity can cause us to hesitate,to move slowly,and not to take a step until we know the ground is safe.Do we thiQk we're slow to adapt to change or that we' re not smart enough to cope with a new challenge?Then we are likely to take a more passive role or not try at all.These feelings of insecurity and self-doubt are both unavoidable and necessary if we are to change and grow.If we do not confront and overcome these internal fears and doubts,if we protect ourselves too much,then we cease to grow.We become trapped inside a shell of our own making.55.A person is generally believed to achieve personal growth then__.(A)he has given up his smoking habit(B)he has made great efforts in his work(C)he is keen on leaming anything new(D)he has tried to determine where he is on his journey56.In the author's eyes,one who views personal growth as a process would__.(A)succeed in climbing up the social ladder(B)judge his ability to glow from his own achievements(C)face difficulties and take up challenges(D)aim high and reach his goal each time57.When the author says"a new way of being"(line3,para.3) he is referring to__.(A)a new approach to experiencing the world(B)a new way of taking risks(C)a new method of perceiving ourselves(D)a new system of adaptation to change58.For personal growth,the author advocates all of the following except_.(A)curiosity about more chances(B)promptness in self-adaptation(C)open-mindedness to new experiences(D)avoidance of intemal fears and doubtsPassage3In such a changing,complex society formerly simple solutions to informational needs become complicated.Many of life's problemswhich were solved by asking family members,friends or colleagues are beyond the capability of the extended family to resolve.Where to turn for expert information and how to determine which expert advice to accept are qaestions facing many people today.In addition to this,there is the growing mobility of people since World WarⅡ.As families move away from their stable community,their friends of many years,their extended family relationships,the informal flow of information is cut off,and with it the confidence that information will be available when needed and will be trustworthy and reliable.The almost unconscious flow of information about the simplest aspects of living can be cut off.Thus,things once learned subconsciously through the casual communications of the extended family must be consciously learned.Adding to societal changes today is an enormous stockpile of information.The individual now has more information available than any generation,and the task of finding that one piece of information relevant to his or her specific problem is complicated,time-consuming and sometimes even overwhelming.Coupled with the growing quantity of information is the development of technologies which enable the storage and delivery of more information with greater speed to more locations than has ever been possible puter technology makes it possible to store vast amounts of data in machine-readable files,and to program computers to locate specific information.Telecommunicationsdevelopments enable the sending of messages via television,radio, and very shortly,electronic mail to bombard people with multitudes of messages.Satellites have extended the power of communications to report events at the instant of occurrence.Expertise can be shared world wide through teleconferencing,and problems in dispute can be settled without the parttcipants leaving their homes and/or jobs to travel to a distant conference site.Technology has facilitated the sharing of information and the storage and delivery of information, thus making more information available to more people.In this world of change and complexity,the need for infomtatian is of greatest importance.Those people who have accurate,reliable up-to-date information to solve the day-to-day problems,the critical problems of their business,social and family life,will survive and succeed. "Knowledge is power"may well be the truest saying and access to information may be the most critical requirement of all people.59.The word"it"(line3,para.2)most probably refers to__.(A)the lack of stable communities(B)the breakdown of informal information channels(C)the increased mobility of families(D)the growing number of people moving from place to place60.The main problem people may encounter today arises form the fact that__.(A)they have to learn new things consciously(B)they lack the confidence of securing reliable and trustworthy information(C)they have difficulty obtaining the needed informatton readily(D)they can hardly carry out casual communications with an extended family.61.From the passage we can infer that__.(A)electronic mail will soon play a dominant role in transmitting messages(B)it will become more difficult for people to keep secrets in an information era(C)people will spend less time holding meetings or conferences(D)events will be reported on the spot mainly through satellites62.We can learn from the last paragraph that__.(A)it is necessary to obtain as much(B)people should make the best use of the information(C)we shoutd realize the importance of accumulating information.(D)it is of vital importance to acquire needed information efficientlyPassage4Personality is to a large extent inherent――A-type parents usually bring about A-type offspring.But the environment must also have a profound effect,since if competition is important to the parents,it is likely to become a major factor in the lives of theirchildren.One place where children soak up A-characteristics is school, which is,by its very nature,a highly competitive institution.Too many schools adopt the'win at all costs'moral standard and measure their success by sporting achievements.The current passion for making children compete against their classmates or against the clock produces a two-layer system,in which competitive Atypes seem in some way better than their B-type fellows.Being too keen to win can have dangerous consequences:remember that Pheidippides,the first marathon runner,dropped dead seconds after saying:'Rejoice,we conquer!'By far the worst form of competition in schools is the disproportionate emphasis on examinations.It is a rare school that allows pupils to concentrate on those things they do well.The merits of competition by examination are somewhat questionable,but competition in the certain knowledge of failure is positively harmful.Obviously,it is neither practical nor desirable that allA-youngsters change into B's.The world needs A types,and schools have an important duty to try to fit a child's personality to his possible future employment.It is top management.If the preoccupation of schools with academic work was lessened, more time might be spent teaching children surer values.Perhaps selection for the caring professions,especially medicine,could bemade less by good grades in chemistry and more by such considerations as sensitivity and sympathy.It is surely a mistake to choose our doctors exclusively from A-type stock.B's are important and should be encouraged.63.According to the passage,A-type individuals are usually__.(A)impatient(B)considerate(C)aggressive(D) agreeable64.The author is strongly opposed to the practice of examinations at schoois because__.(A)the pressure is too great on the students(B)some students are bound to fail(C)failure rates are too high(D)the results of exarninations are doubtful65.The selection of medical professionals are currentiy based on__.(A)candidates'sensitivity(B)academic acbievements(C)competitive spirit(D)surer values66.From the passage we can draw the oonclusion that__.(A)the personality of a child is well established at birth(B)family innuence dominates the shaping of one's characteristics.(C)the development of one's personality is due to multiple factors(D)B-type characteristics can find no place in competitivesocietyPassage5That experiences influence subsequent behaviour is evidence of an obvious but nevertheless remarkable activity called remembering. Learning could not occur without the function popularly named memory.Constant practice has such as effect on memory as to lead to skillful performance on the piano,to recitation of a poem,and even to reading and understanding these words.So-called intelligent behaviour demands memory,remembering being a primary requirement for reasoning.The ability to solve any problem or even to recognize that a problem exists depends on memory.Typically,the decision to cross a street is based on remembering many earlier experiences.Practice(or review)tends to build and maintain memory for a task or for any learned material.Over a period of no practice what has been learned tends to be forgotten;and the adaptive consquences may not seem obvious.Yet,dramatic instances of sudden forgetting can seem to be adaptive.In this sense,the ability to forget can be intffpreted to have survived through a process of natural selection in animals.Inded,when one's memory of an emotionally painful experience lead to serious anxiety,forgetting may produoe relief. Nevertheless,an evolutionary interpretation might make it difficult to understand how the commonly gradual process of forgetting survived natural selection.In thinking about the evolution of memory together with all itspossible aspects,it is helpful to consider what would happen if memories failed to fade.Forgetting clearly aids orientation in time, since old memories weaken and the new tend to stand out,providing clues for inferring duration.Without fotgetting,adaptive ability would suffer,for example,learned behaviour that might have been correct a decade ago may no longer be.Cases are recorded of people who(by or-dinary standards)forgot so little that their everyday activities were full of confusion.This forgetting seems to serve that survival of the individual and the species.Another line of thought assumes a memory storage system of limited capacity that provides adaptive flexibility specifically through forgetting.In this view,continual adjustments are made between learning or memory storage(input)and forgetting(output).Indeed, there is evidence that the rate at which individuals forget is directly related to how much they have learned.Such data offers gross support of contemporary models of memory that assume an input-output balance.67.From the evolutionary point of view,__.(A)forgetting for lack of practice tends to be obviously inadaptive.(B)if a person gets very forgetful all of a sudden he must be very adaptive(C)the gradual process of forgetting is an indication of an individual's adaptability(D)sudden forgetting may bring about adaptive consequences68.According to the passage,if a person never forgot,__.(A)he would survive best(B)he would have a lot of trouble(C)his ability to learn would be enhanced(D)the evolution of memory would stop69.From the last paragraph we know that__.(A)forgetfulness is a response to learning(B)the memory storage system is an exactly balanced input-output systenl(C)memory is a compensation for forgetting(D)the capacity of a memory storage system is limited because forgetting occurs70.In this article,the author tries to interpret the function of__.(A)remembering(B)forgetting(C)adapting(D) experiencingPartⅣEnglish-Chinese TranslationThe standardized educational or psychological test 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 form the fault that lies with ill-informed orincompetent 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 productivity,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 kinds of information about what a person learned,the sktlls he has developed,or the kind 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 effectivelv when the qualities to be measured can be most precisely defined and least effectively whenwhat is to be messured or predicted cannot 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.PartⅤWrlting(15points)DIRECTIONS:A.Title:THE"PROJECT HOPE"B.Time limit:40minutesC.Word limit:120-150words(not including the given opening sentence)D.Your composition should be based on the OUTLINE below and should start with the given opening sentence:"Education plays a very important role in the modernization of our country".E.Your composition must be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET.OUTLEVE:1.Present sluation2.Necessity of the project3.My suggestion答案:1.D2.A3.B4.D5.B6.C7.A8.D9.A10.C11.A,renect12.D,if13.B,to which14.D,being 15.C,writing about或who write about16.D,affected17.C,whose18.C,as19.C,do much20.B,each time21.B 22.D23.C24.C25.A26.B27.D28.C29.A30.

中央财经大学考博英语翻译真题解析及命题规律教你如46.It is also the reason why when we try to describe music with words,all we can do is articulate our reactions to it,and not grasp music itself.【句型分析】本句主句主干为it is the reason,why引导定语从句,修饰the reason。
定语从句的主干是all we can do is articulate our reactions and not grasp music itself,其表语是不定式短语,由于主语中含有do,不定式符号to省略:articulate our reactions and not grasp music itself。
our reactions之后to it为其定语,it指代music。
定语从句中还包含when引导的时间状语从句。
【翻译要点】①本句主干的主句是主系表结构,reason后why引导的定语从句较长,翻译时可以与主干部分结合,调整表达为:这也就是为什么….。
②定语从句中,when引导时间状语从句,其中with words做状语,翻译时需调整语序到其修饰的to describe之前,可以表达为“当我们尝试用语言来描述音乐时”。
定语从句的主干顺译即可,其中reaction根据语境,可以翻译为“感受”,其定语to it在表达时前置,it指代还原为“音乐”,则可以翻译为“所有我们能做的,就是明确表达我们对于音乐的感受”,或者调整表达为“我们只能明确表达我们对于音乐的感受”。
and之后,grasp 依据语境,需要翻译为“理解”。
【译文总结】这也是为什么当我们试图用语言来描述音乐时,我们只能明确表达我们对于音乐的感受,而不能完全理解音乐本身。

三、考博英语必备参考书育明考博教研部主编,河北大学出版社出版的《考博英语真题解析》和《考博词汇》是考博人必备的两本书。
在当当网,亚马逊和全国各大书店均有销售,也可以联系我们直接购买。
四、联系导师在初步定好考博学校之后,就要和所报考院校中意的老师取得联系,询问是否有招生名额,能否报考,这是我们考博成功的关键第一步。
大多数考生会在九月中下旬与导师取得联系。
因为太早,学校里面直博名额什么的还没有确定,报考的导师也不清楚是否有名额;太晚的话,怕别的学生比你早联系就不好了。
一般情况下,导师对一个学生很中意的话,后来联系的学生,导师一般也不会答应其报考了。
在此说点题外话,联系导师的过程中,如果读研期间的导师有关系,可以尽量利用。
如果没有,也没关系,凭着自己的本事也是可以和考博导师很好的沟通的,这就要看自己了。
通常跟导师初次联系,都是发邮件。
导师回复邮件的情况一般有几种:(1)、欢迎报考。
这种答复最笼统,说明不了问题。
我们可以接着努力和老师多沟通,看看具体的进展,避免出现初试之后却没有名额的情况。
(2)、名额有限,可以报考,但有竞争。
很多人说这样的回复不满意,认为希望很小一般会被刷。
其实这样还是比较好的一种回答,最起码导师没有骗你而且给你机会去证明自己,考的好就可以上。
(3)、你的研究方向和我一样......各种一大堆他的研究方向和你相关,欢迎报考什么的话。
不可否认,这是最好的情况,你可以放心的去考,一般不会出问题的。
但不排除偶然,像出现直博和本学校的硕转博名额问题,可能会给我们的报考和录取产生影响。
总之考博凭的是实力和自身的本事,关系只是占一部分,自己努力了就行,不用过分纠结于导师回复有没有啥隐含意思的。
初次联系好导师后,一定要注意跟导师保持联系。
每半个月或者一个月向导师汇报一下学习情况或者复习情况,交流一下科研方向,这很有必要。
一方面让导师觉得你很想去跟他深造,另一方面显得你虔诚好学。
五、听力答题技巧1、卷子发下来后快速的浏览一遍,包括题干和答案。
这样会大大提高你对听力的理解---知道它是讲什么内容,大概是怎么回事。
联系我们扣扣:四一六九二五五五九。
电话:四零零六六八六九七八。
扣扣群:一零五六一九八二零。
2、没听懂的题目,就放弃它,千万不要在听下道题的时候还在想上道题。
这样会引起头脑的混乱。
3、相信第一感觉,听力部分不是非常确凿的感觉的话不要改动开始的答案。
人的大脑有时候会混淆的。
因此很多情况下不是你选错了,而是改错了。
因此轻易别选,但是选了之后轻易别改。
(1)提炼选项中的重要信息考生务必先看选项。
当录音人开始宣读Directions时,考生应充分利用这段时间速读选项,预测考点,从而做到心中有数。
通过先看选项,可以明确题目多方面的信息。
(2)掌握节奏合理安排时间可能没有哪种考试对时间安排的要求比听力考试还要苛刻。
“录音不等人”,所以很多考生答题时都很紧张。
其实,听力考试每分钟阅读的字数和停顿时间有严格限制:约每分钟140词,每个问题后有约15秒停顿。
拍子已经固定,我们要做的是跟上节奏,过分的紧张只会造成混乱,直接影响发挥。
答题时,考生切勿在某一题上花费过多的时间(一般少于10秒/题),剩余的时间用于阅读下一题的选项和大胆猜测考点。
一旦没有听懂就根据已经掌握的信息迅速猜一个答案,马上进入下一题的节奏。
千万不可拖泥带水,否则破坏了节奏,可能造成随后的简单题目失分。
答案选定后可放松一口气,然后尽可能多看下一题乃至两题的选项。
(3)听力是一种Paraphrase考试Paraphrase就是运用同类词语的替换或句型的变换解释句或段的意义。
听力考试多数时候是一种paraphrase考试,它往往考的不是考生是否听见,而是考考生是否听懂。
把命题中的对话和段落原封不动地照搬到答案里,等着考生把它挑出来,在考博听力考试中这种题型几乎找不到。
绝大多数题目,要求考生把听到的原文进行变换和归纳,对应到选项中。
如此一来,我们不光得竖起耳朵听,还得开动脑筋想。
这就造成有的考生听懂了原文的每个字,却选不出答案。
要避免这种情况,请注意正确答案的固定特征:(4)听懂语调和重音英语和汉语一样,说话人通过各种各样的语调和重音的变化表达不同的意思。
考博听力中,专业的录音人更是力求表演得真实,他们绝不会用平淡的语调表示自己的惊讶,也绝不会把重音放在无关紧要的词上。
重读的每一处都具有提示作用。
因而,从录音人的表现中就能推测出人物的心理活动、观点和态度。
重音和语调是最为重要的线索。
辨认录音人语调中的信息在听力考试中比听懂单个词更重要。
(5)针对题型逐个演练不管是对话还是文段,听力考试的提问可分主题题型、细节题型、推断题型和语言点题型四大类。
我们可以在平时的练习中有意识的总结做题的方法和技巧。
六、阅读理解的解题技巧其实考博阅读的技巧是有针对性的,看整篇文章就是为了弄清文章的框架,具体的问题我们可以不管,但文章的层次必须弄清楚。
只有弄清了文章的层次,具体的问题才好归类,结合课后问题才能快速定位问题答案。
另外我发现考博的题目基本都围绕在文章的各层次主干上,细枝末节上基本没有涉题,于是就会发现,原文几百字的文章,真正需要了解的只有主干的几十字而已,其余的东西都可省。
当我们划去冗余,就会发现几十字的文章骨架基本覆盖所有的问题。
可见,对于考博阅读,若要高效正确的征服,必须学会快速分析文章的主干。
这就是基于逻辑的阅读,上升到理论层面的阅读模式。
下面进行具体分析:(1)主旨在英语阅读中要弄清楚层次,个人以为要弄清文章主旨,段落中心以及段落内部的次中心,这些在一些文章主旨题和一些细节题上很受用。
常规的文章主旨都会有其固定的出现地点:首段末尾处、第二段的开头和最后一段。
当然也有非常规的情况,这就需要靠自己的能力去寻找。
找主旨需要慢慢训练,常规的、非常规的文章都能通过真题并结合后面的专家解析,这样能力就能够很快地提升。
(2)常规文章行文逻辑本文中一直的强调要重视文章逻辑,那么,一般的都有哪些逻辑呢?通过一般归纳总结,大致可以得到四个逻辑框架。
这些框架特别有助于理解文章的总体内容,阅读过程按框架有重点地跳读,辨明逻辑主线,在把握文章重点、段落中心和段内次中心基础上,会有很好的效果。
也许,在做考博阅读之初,很多平日里有扎实功底的同学也会出现全军覆没的局面,出现这种情况,并不一定是英语词汇有巨大的缺知,而可能是逻辑上出现混乱。
现在将框架简单介绍如下:框架1:提出问题——分析问题——解决问题框架2:叙述现象——分析现象——结论框架3:提出观点——支持or反驳该观点——重申观点框架4:两种东西对比——分项对比——总体对照在阅读中要有意识的将文章归类分析,弄清逻辑,以上列出的是主干,还需进一步分析到枝叶,这样才能达到层次清晰的程度。
到段落级别,文章中心也容易辨出,多数文章中心在首末,少数会出现在段中。
于是在理解阅读文章的时候,在定位完毕后尽量将重点阅读范围扩大多句,观察所在句子在段落中的地位和在全文的地位。
一般情况,较接近的段中心和段落次中心往往就是正确答案,当然在最终填写答案的时候还是细细分析更为可靠。
(3)暗含答案的重点位置所谓文章重点就是阅读文章时得特别关注的地方,也是我们在浏览文章时眼界的着力点。
在考博阅读中,出题点一般都是文章中较为重要的地方,常见的有段落的中心和次中心;对于非中心,考博文章一般不会考察。
这是博士研究生入学考试的选拔性和阅读科技论文实用性所决定的。
上述的逻辑对于宏观题基本可以一网打尽,但对于微观题,我们必须通过重点位置的提示来解决。
下面通过一些分析和重点位置的介绍来理解把握文章的细节:1)所有文章的中心与段落中心和次中心。
2)转折和因果。
在阅读中,最好把含有转折和因果的词句标出来,因为转折和因果都意味着作者的观点和态度,相对一般句子更有强调性。
例如:because,for,but,however……3)表示观点的句子、观点的词可能多处出现,当然并不是所有观点的句子和词汇都是重点,但值得一读。
阅读文章中对这些词语的敏感是件令人兴奋的事情,所以平时应做好积累。
例如:agree,acknowledge,assert,see,insist,according to,find,think,believe,show,point out,content,acclaim,say等4)特殊标点符号,有的表示具体说明、有表解释、有表反义等等,均有或强或弱的强调意味,主要的特殊标点符号有:——、()、“”等。
5)情态动词。
should,must都能表达作者感情的因素,能从侧面反映作者对于某事物的观点,理应重点阅读。
6)特殊句型。
例如副词提前加逗号这种形式Variety,……,Significantly,……副词在句中起着很大作用,能反映态度,能表程度,这种特殊句型更有强调的成分,值得多阅读分析。
7)有指代的比较级、最高级和such/so等。
上面列举的一些重点特征很多,无异就是一些相对突出强调的词语。
阅读文章的时候,仅靠这些重点基本上可以做出大部分的阅读题。
阅读时快速画出重点,仅阅读含有重点特征的句子,对文章进行“减肥”,以提高阅读效率。
(4)选项特点1)正确答案的特点a、与原文句子同义词替换。
b、相对原文语法变化,如原文中的被动变为主动。
C、正面反面,即原文句子的否定形式,答案变成肯定的正面叙述;原文是肯定形式,从正面叙述,答案变成否定形式从反面叙述。
d、AB角度,原文从A角度叙述某事,而答案从B角度叙述同一件事情,本质不变。
e、具体抽象,即原文具体事例,答案变为抽象概括,或反之。
2)干扰选项的特点a、照抄原文,个别词语不同。
b、一半信息符合原文,一半信息不符。
c、将原文某些信息张冠李戴。
d、与原文叙述的内容相反。
e、与原文中没有出现观点新信息。
f、含有绝对化的词语,如only,always,never,all,everything,anything,everywhere,everybody,nobody。
g、逻辑错误,因果颠倒等。
最后,育明考博提醒:要做好考博英语阅读必须在扎实的英语词汇和语法的基础上,从不同角度对文章进行分解和思考。
