　　Part Ⅱ Reading Comprehension

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

　　Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:

　　Increasingly, over the past ten years, people—especially young people—have become aware of the need to change their eating habits, because much of the food they eat, particularly processed foods, is not good for health. Consequently,there has been a growing interest in natural foods: foods which do not contain chemical additives and which have not been affected by chemical fertilizers widely used in farming today.

　　Natural foods, for example, are vegetables, fruit and grain which have been grown in soil that is rich in organic matter.In simple terms, this means that the soil has been nourished by unused vegetable matter, which provides it with essential vitamins and minerals. This in itself is a natural process compared with the use of chemicals and fertilizers, the main purpose of which is to increase the amount but not the quality of foods grown in commercial farming areas.

　　Natural foods also include animals which have been allowed to feed and move freely in healthy pastures. Compare this with what happens in the mass productionof poultry: there are battery farms, for example, where thousands of chickens live crowded together in one building and are fed on food which is little better than rubbish. Chickens kept in this way are not only tasteless as food; but also produce eggs which lack important vitamins.

　　There are other aspects of healthy eating which are now receiving increasing attention from experts on diet. Take, for example, the question of sugar. This is actually a nonessential food! Although a natural alternative, such as honey, can be used to sweeten food if this necessary, we can in fact do without it. It is not that sugar is harmful in itself. But it does seem to be additive: the quantity we use has grown steadily over the last centuries and in Britain today each person consumes an average of 200 pounds a year! Yet all it does is provide us with energy, in the form of calories. There are no vitamins in it, no minerals and nofiber.

　　It is significant that nowadays fiber is considered to be an important part of a healthy diet. In white bread, for example ,the fiber has been removed. But it is present in unrefined flour and of course in vegetables. It is interesting to note that in countries where the national diet contains large quantities of unrefined flour and vegetables, certain diseases are comparatively rare. Hence the emphasis is placed on the eating of whole meal bread and more vegetables by modern experts on “healthy eating”.

　　21.Which statement best expresses the main idea of this article?

　　A) People should eat any food to keep themselves healthy and strong.

　　B) People should eat natural foods to keep themselves healthy and strong.

　　C) People should eat fiber foods to keep themselves healthy and strong.

　　D) People should eat vegetables to keep themselves healthy and strong.

　　22.“Particularly processed foods” means ____.

　　A) foods which are particularly processed by adding chemical additives

　　B) foods which are particularly made by commercial farms

　　C) foods which are specially produced by commercial factories

　　D) foods which are not specially made by adding anything

　　23.Natural foods means ____.

　　A) foods good for health

　　B) foods not good for health

　　C) foods such as vegetables, fruit and grain from rich organic matters soil

　　D) crops from rich organic matters soil and meats of animals from healthy pastures

　　24.There are no vitamins, no minerals and no fibers in ____.

　　A) natural foods C) sugar

　　B) animal meats D) fruit

　　25.“Yet all it does is provide us with energy, in the form of calories.” It means ____.

　　A) processed food provides us with energy

　　B) natural food furnishes us with vitamins and minerals

　　C) sugar gives us enough energy in the form of calories

　　D) fiber helps us to digest food

　　Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:

　　With a tremendous roar from its rocket engine, the satellite is sent up into the sky. Minutes later, at an altitude of 300 miles, this tiny electronic moon begins to orbit about the earth. Its radio begins to transmit an astonishing amount of information about the satellite's orbital path, the amount of radiation it detects, and the presence of meteorites. Information of all kinds races back to the earth.No human being could possibly copy down all these facts, much less remember and organize them. But an electronic computer can.

　　The marvel of the machine age, the electronic computer has been in use only since 1946. It can do simple computations—add,subtract, multiply and divide—with lighting speed and perfect accuracy. Some computers can work 500,000 times faster than any person can.

　　once it is given a “program” — that is, a carefully workedout set of instructions devised by a technician trained in computer language — a computer cagather a wide range of information for many purposes. For the scientist it can get information from outer space or from the depth of the ocean. In business and industry the computer prepares factory inventories, keeps track of sales trends and production needs, mails dividend checks, and makes out company payrolls. It can keep bank accounts up to date and make out electric bills. If you are planning a trip by plane, the computer will find out what to take and what space is available.

　　Not only can the computer gather facts, it can also store them as fast as they are gathered and can pour them out whenever they are needed. The computer is really a highpowered“memory” machine that “has all the answers”—or almost all.Besides gathering and storing information, the computer can also solve complicated problems that once took months for people to do.

　　At times computers seem almost human. They can “read” handprinted letters,play chess, compose music, write plays and even design other computers. Is it any wonder that they are sometimes called “thinking” machines?

　　Even though they are taking over some of the tasks that were once accomplished by our own brains, computers are not replacing us at least not yet. Our brain has more than 10 million cells. A computer has only a few hundred thousand parts.

　　For some time to come, then, we can safely say that our brains are at least 10,000 times more complex than a computer.How we use them is for us, not the computer, to decide.

　　26.In the first paragraph, the author thinks an electronic computer can ____.

　　A) copy down all the facts

　　B) remember all the facts

　　C) organize the facts and everything

　　D) copy down, remember and organize all the facts

　　27.“Program” means ____.

　　A) a plan of what is to be done

　　B) a complete show on a TV station at a fixed time table

　　C) a scheduled performance

　　D) series of coded instructions to control the operations of a computer

　　28.The computer is a high powered “memory” machine, which ____.

　　A) has all the ready answers — or almost all to any questions

　　B) can remember everything

　　C) can store everything and work for you

　　D) has all the answers — or almost to all the information that has been stored

　　29. “Thinking” machines suggest that ____.

　　A) they can “read” hand printed letters etc

　　B) they really can think and do many other jobs

　　C) they even design other computers

　　D) they can't think, but can do something under human control

　　30.Can computers do whatever they want to do?Why?

　　A) Yes, because some computers can work 500,000 times faster than any person can.

　　B) No, because they normally have a few hundred thousand parts.

　　C) No, because human brains are at least 10000 times more complex than any computers.

　　D) No, because how a computer works is decided by human.
　　Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:

　　No one expressed this attitude more strongly than Noah Webster .

　　Born near Nartford, Connecticut, he received his education at Yale College and later began to practise law. But business in this profession was slow, and he was forced to turn to teaching. As a teacher, he soon discovered that the English school books then in use were unsatisfactory, and the American Revolution reduced the supply of such books as there were. Webster therefore began to work on three simple books on English, a spelling book, a grammar, and a reader, and these were the first books of their kind to be published in this country. The success of the first

　　part was surprisingly great. It was soon issued again under the title THE AMERICAN SPELLING BOOK, and in this form about 80 million copies were sold during the next hundred years. From a profit of less than one cent a copy, Webster got most of his income for the rest of his life. Not only did the little book have great influence on many generations of school children, but it also had the effect or turning its author's attention to questions of language. In 1806 he produced a small dictionary,and this was followed by his greatest work, AN AMERICAN DICTIonARY OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE, published in two volumes in1828. In both of these works and in many smaller writings he had one purpose: to show that the Englsih language in his country was a truly American thing, developing in its own special way and deserving to be considered from an independent, American point of view. As he himself wrote,“ It is not only important, but in a degree necessary, that the people of this country should have an AMERICAN DICTIonARY of the English language; for, although the body of the language is the same as in England…some differences exist…. No person in this country will be satisfied with the English definitions of the words congress, senate, as百度竞价推广bly, court, and so forth, for although these are words used in England, yet they are applied in this country to express ideas which they do not express in that country.” By giving American meanings and American pronunciation, by adopting a number of American spellings, and especially by introducing quotations from American authors beside those from English literature, he was able, to a great extent, to justify the title of his work. If, after a hundred years, some people still doubt the existence of a separate American language, his efforts, nevertheless, have left a lasting mark on the language of his country.

　　31.Webster first tried to earn his living in the field of ____.

　　A) education C) law

　　B) journalism D) medicine

　　32.Webster earned most of his money from the sale of his ____.

　　A) had created American English and its usages

　　B) had discovered American English and improved it

　　C) had tried his best and left a milestone on the language of his country

　　D) had left a language which was not used in England.

　　Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:

　　once upon a time, the United States seemed to have plenty of land to go around. Plenty of rivers to dam and plenty of rural valleys left over. Plenty of space for parks and factories. Plenty of forests to cut and grasslands to plow. But that was once upon a time. The days of unused land are over.Now the land has been

　　spoken for, fenced off, carved up into cities and farms and industrial parks, put to use.

　　At the same time, the population keeps growing. People need places to work and places to play. So we need more sites for more industries, more beaches for more sunbathers, and more clean rivers for more fishers. And it isn't just a matter of population growth. Our modern technology has needs that must be met, too. We need more coal for energy, and we need more power plants; cars must have highways and parking lots, and jets must have airports.

　　Each of these land uses swallows up precious space.Highways and expressways alone take some 200,000 acres each year. And urban sprawl — the spreading out of cities — is expected to gobble up vast areas of land by the year 2,000. But there is only so much land to go around. It is always hard to decide. Take, for example, a forest. A forest can be a timber supply. It can provide a home for wildlife.

　　It is scenery and a recreation area for man. It is soil and watershed protection.

　　本文是一篇人物介绍。 Noah Webster出生于美国康涅狄格州，曾就读于耶鲁大学，后来开始从事律师工作，因这一行业不景气，所以改行教书。教书过程中，他发现所用的课本不让人认可，而且因为美国革命而降低了课本的发行，所以他开始撰写有关拼写，语法和阅念书籍。这在美国是最早的也获得了巨大的成功。《美国拼写法》，这本书在十九世纪售出 8千万册。Webster因此而获得了一笔收入作为他后半生生活的主要来源。这本书不只对一代又一代学生产生了巨大影响，而且也使Webster自己将它 注意力转向研究语言的问题，后来他撰写了他的巨著《美国英语词典》共有两卷，1828年出版。其目的是表明英语在美国是真的的美国货，应该以美国人自己独 特的角度来看待。他写道：“美国英语不只要紧，而且必要，美国人应该有我们的美国英语词典。尽管语言形式大体相同，但依旧存在不同…”他使用美式拼法，注 上美式发音和美国意思，还特别引用美国作家们的语言，这在非常大程度上使他这部作品名副其实。假如多年后有人依旧怀疑独立的美语的存在的话，无论怎么样他的贡献在美国英语进步史上树了一个里程碑。

　　31.答案C。

　　【考试试题剖析】 此题为直接推断题。

　　【详细解答】 此题可用排除法。文中没提到 doctor一词，所以比较容易排除。文中也没提到他在当学生期间的贡献或收获，他开始是律师，但后来改行当了教师，是在执教期间写的书。

　　以前的美国好像有足够的土地叫人们推荐借助，但目前所有土地都有其主了;同时人口不

　　断增长，所以需要更多的场合，工作和娱乐。但问题不仅包含人口增长，还包含满足现代技术的需要：更多的煤提供能量，更多的电厂，有汽车又须有高 速公路，停车点，有飞机须有机场。宝贵的空间完全被占用了。仅公路就每年占用 20万英亩的土地，城市向郊区的蔓延侵吞了大面积的土地。尽管这样，但有那样多土地可供借助，因此非常难决定该怎么样借助。比如森林，可以提供木材，也可以是野生动物的活动场合，可以作为人类娱乐场合和风景点，还可以有益于保护水土流失。

　　39.答案C。

　　【参考译文】 通过词组“ swallows up”大家了解宝贵的空间完全被占用。

　　【考试试题剖析】 此题考查句意理解。

　　Part Ⅳ

　　71.【参考译文】 过去的十年间，大家——尤其是年轻人人——渐渐意识到需要改变其饮食习惯，由于他们吃的很多食品特别是精制食品不利于健康。

　　【翻译方法】 此题需用词性转换法，并调整语序。

　　【翻译点评】 句中 increasingly意为“渐渐地，愈加多地”，需要放在become和aware之间来翻译，另外“ the need to change…”假如译为“改变……的需要”就没译成“需要改变……”来得直接，通畅。

　　72.【参考译文】 一种有趣的现象表明，只须大家的饮食含有很多的粗面粉和蔬菜，某些疾病在那些国家就相应降低。

　　【翻译方法】 此题应该注意词序的调整，兼有条件状语从句用途的定语从句的翻译，及句子结构的剖析。

　　【翻译点评】 第一搞了解本句结构非常重要， It是形式主语，动词不定式短语to note that…comparatively rare是真的主语。但假如机械地译为“注意到在那些……的国家，某些疾病相对少见是非常有趣的”，就看上去太头重脚轻了，所以译为“一种有趣的现象表 明……”，动词“ note”后面的宾语从句中，名词“countries”后面带有where引导的定语从句修饰，但这里“大家的饮食含有很多粗面粉和蔬菜”，和后面的 “某些疾病就相应较少见”之间有种势必的条件关系，所以加上“只须……，就……”使译文更有逻辑性。

　　度把它们储存起来，一旦需要就能随时将它们输送出来。

　　74.【参考译文】 大家有把握地说在将来的一段时间内，大家的大脑至少要比计算机复杂一万倍。大家如何用它们是由大家而不是由计算机决定的。

　　75.【参考译文】 从每一本书不足一美分的价值中，韦布斯特赚取了他后半生的大多数收入。

　　【考试试题剖析】 此题应该注意句子顺序。

　　Part Ⅴ

　　写作方法指导

　　这是一篇关于广告的议论文，考生应依据题目所给出的结构进行展开，千万不可由于熟知“广告”这一题材就浮想联翩，下笔千言却离题万里。第一弄 了解每一段的内容及各段之间有什么联系，不要在写完了第一段之后，发现要写的第二段的内容已在前一段写过了，所以写之前先构思，找个腹稿，或在稿纸上写上要素。

　　在范本中，第一段指出广告的目的有些是让买家了解其商品和服务，但大部分广告是为 了说服大家买这而不是买那。第二段指出广告是营销推广商品的方法，做广告让买家了解某种品牌比其他的更有优势是十分必要的。即做广告的必要性及缘由，最后一段写厂家做广告的起初缘由是由于他们发现花一笔钱对其商品做广告总的来讲比降价供应更有利。

　　Sample Writing

　　Advertising

　　A certain amount of advertising is of an informative kind, the aim simply being to let consumers know what goods and services are available—“consumer education” as it is sometimes called. Most advertising, however, is of a persuasive or competitive kind, the aim of which is to persuade people to buy one thing rather than something else.

　　Advertising is a selling cosplayt particularly associated with imperfect competition. Advertising is a way of marketing goods. In the sale of branded goods, advertising is essential in order to try to impress on consumers that one maker's brand is superior to all others, although in fact the only difference between brands may sometimes be in their trade marks and labels.

　　Any producer with some degree of monopoly, however slight, will generally find it more advantageous to advertise his products widely and at considerable expense rather than cut his prices.
