Brotherly Love
Adidas and Puma have been two of the biggest names in sports shoe manufacturing for over half a century.Since 1928 they have supplied shoes for Olympic athletes, World Cup-winning football heroes, Muhammad Ali, hip hop stars and rock musicians famous all over the world.But the story of these two companies begins in one house in the town of Herzogenaurach, Germany.Adolph and Rudolph Dassler were the sons of a shoemaker.They loved sport but complained that they could never find comfortable shoes to play in.Rudolph always said, 'You cannot play sports wearing shoes that you'd walk around town with.' So they started making their own.In 1920 Adolph made the first pair of athletics shoes with spikes(钉),produced on the Dasslers' kitchen table.On lst July 1924 they formed a shoe company, Dassler Brothers Ltd and they worked together for many years.The company became successful and it provided the shoes for Germany's athletes at the 1928 and 1932 Olympic Games.But in 1948 the brothers argued.No one knows exactly what happened, but family members have suggested that the argument was about money or women.The result was that Adolph left the company.His nickname was Adi, and using this and the first three letters of the family name, Dassler, he founded Adidas.Rudolph relocated across the River Aurach and founded his own company too.At first he wanted to call it Ruda, but eventually he called it Puma, after the wild cat.The famous Puma logo of the jumping cat has hardly changed since.After the big split of 1948 Adolph and Rudolph never spoke to each other again and their companies have now been in competition for over sixty years.Both companies were for many years the market leaders, though Adidas has always been more successful than Puma.A hip hop group, Run DMC, has even written a song called “My Adidas” and in 2005 Adidas bought Reebok, another big sports shoe company.The terrible family argument should really be forgotten, but ever since it happened, over sixty years ago, the town has been split into two.Even now, some Adidas employees and Puma employees don't talk to each other.16.Adidas and puma began to make shoes at the end of 19th century.A.Right

Who Built Giza’s Pyramids(金字塔)? For centuries, the pyramids of Giza have been timeless symbols of Egyptian culture.But who actually built them? For years, we did not know for sure.But archeologists(考古学家)recently discovered an ancient village near the pyramids.Close by, there was also a cemetery(墓地)where pyramid builders were buried.From studying these places, archeologists can now confirm that the pyramids were not built by slaves or foreigners.Ordinary Egyptians built them.It took about eighty years to build the pyramids.According to archeologists, about 20,000-30,000 people were involved in completing the task.The workers had different roles.Some dug up the rock, some moved it, and some shaped it into blocks.People also worked on different teams, each with its own name.On a wall in Khufu's Great Pyramid, for example, a group of workers wrote “Friends of Khufu.” Teams often competed to do a job faster.Life for these workers was hard.“We can see that in their skeletons(骨架),” says Azza Mohamed Sarry El-Din, a scientist studying bodies found in the cemetery.The bones show signs of arthritis(关节炎), which developed from carrying heavy things for a long time.Archeologists have also found many female skeletons in the village and cemetery.The damage to their bones is similar to the men's.Their lives may have been even tougher: male workers lived to age 40-45, but women to only 30-35.However, workers usually had enough food, and they also had medical care if they got sick or hurt.The work was challenging, but laborers were proud of their work.”lt's because they were not just building the tomb of their king,“ says Egyptian archeologist Zahi Hawass.“They were building Egypt.It was a national project, and everyone was a participant.”

From Ponzi to Madoff
The year was 1920.The country was the United States of America.The man's name was Charles Ponzi.Ponzi told people to stop depositing money in a savings account.Instead, they should give it to him to save for them.Ponzi promised to pay them more than the bank.For example, a savings account might pay you $5 a year for every $100 you deposit.Ponzi, however, would pay you $40 a year for every $100 you gave him to hold.Many people thought this was a good plan.They began to give their money to Ponzi.How could Ponzi make so much money for people? This is what he did with the money people gave him: He used some of that money to pay other people who gave him money.However, he also kept a lot of the money for himself.Soon he had $250 million.This was a kind of theft, and it was against the law.The people who gave him their money didn't think anything was wrong.Ponzi paid them every month, just like a bank.Ponzi continued this way of working for two years.Then one day, he didn't have enough money to pay all the people.They discovered his crime, and he went to prison for fraud.Ninety years later, people began to hear about a businessman in New York named Bernard Madoff.People said he gave good advice about money.They said when they gave him their money, he paid them a lot more than the bank.Madoff helped hospitals, schools, and individuals earn money.Over a period of 40 years, people gave him $170 billion.However, no one investigated what he did with the money.The people who gave Madoff their money also didn't think anything was wrong because he paid them every month.One day, Madoff didn't have enough money to pay all the people he needed to pay.That's when people discovered how Madoff worked: He was taking money from some people to pay other people, just the way Charles Ponzi did.However, this time, instead of losing millions of dollars, people lost billions.Madoff was accused of fraud, and United States government officials arrested him.He didn't have to go on trial because he said he was guilty.In 2009, a judge sentenced him t0 150 years in prison.Bernard Madoff's crime was even bigger than Ponzi's.It was the biggest fraud in history.The lesson of this story is clear: When something seems too good to be true, it probably is!

Puerto Rican Cuisine(菜肴)
Puerto Rico, a Caribbean(加勒比海区)island rich in history and remarkable natural beauty, has a cuisine all its own.Immigration(移民)to the island has helped to shape its cuisine, with people from all over the world making various contributions to it.However, before the arrival of these immigrants, the Taino people lived on the island of Puerto Rico.Taino cuisine included such foods as rodents(啮齿动物), fresh shellfish and fish fried in corn oil.Many aspects of Taino cuisine continue today in Puerto Rican cooking, but it has been heavily influenced by the Spanish, who invaded Puerto Rico in 1508, and Africans, who were initially brought to Puerto Rico to work as slaves.Taino cooking styles were mixed with ideas brought by the Spanish and Africans to create new dishes.The Spanish extended food choices by bringing cattle, pigs, goats, and sheep to the island.Africans also added to the island's food culture by introducing powerful, contrasting tastes in dishes.In fact, much of the food Puerto Rico is now famous forwas actually imported by foreigners to the island.A common assumption many people make about Puerto Rican food is that it is very spicy(辛辣的).lt's true that chili peppers are popular;aij caballero in particular is a very hot chili pepper that Puerto Ricans enjoy.However, milder(微辣的)tastes are popular too, such as sofrito.As the base of many Puerto Rican dishes, sofrito is a sauce made from chopped onions, green bell peppers, sweet chili peppers, and a handful of other spices.It is fried in oil and then added to other dishes.36、who lived in Puerto Rico first

B.the Spanish
C.the Americans
D.the Taino people
37、In the first paragraph the word “it” refers to
A.immigration

39、How is sofrito used?

第三篇
The Changing Middle Class
The United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation.However,middle class is not a real designation,nor does it carry privileges(特权).It is more of a perception,which probably was as true as it ever could be right after World War II.The economy was growing,more and more people owned their own homes,workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them,and nearly everyone who wanted a higher education could have one.Successful people enjoyed upward social mobility.They may have started out poor,but they could become rich.Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility.In other words,they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places.The middle class collectively holds several values and principles.One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that one can determine one’s own economic fate.In addition, middle-class morality(道德观)embraces principles of individual responsibility, importance of family, obligations to others,and believing in something outside oneself.But in the 1990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success.A U.S.News & World Report survey in 1994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle class families could no longer make ends meet.Both spouses now worked, as did some of the children;long commutes became routine;the need for child care put strains on the family;and public schools were not as good as they once were.Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using credit to stay afloat.The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing.41.This passage gives information about
A.a social and economic group.B.an individual.C.a political organization.D.a government department.42.In the years after World War II, the middle class were
A.overburdened and in debt.B.hard working and doubtful.C.happy and full of hope.D.young and upset.43.One important middle-class value is that
A.people should always have fun.B.children should believe in themselves.C.debt is nothing to worry about.D.they should earn enough to finance their lifestyles.44.In the second paragraph, the word ”collectively' means
A.hesitatingly.B.unknowingly.C.weakly.D.commonly.45.The 1994 survey showed most Americans thought the middle class
A.took pleasure in raising children.B.had a regular journey to work.C.could not earn enough money to maintain their lifestyles.D.could easily maintain their lifestyles.【答案】:ACDDC 第5部分:补全短文(第46~50题,每题2分,共10分)

What Is Giobalization ?
It was the anti—globalization movement that really put globalization on the map.As a word it has existed since the 1 960s,but the protests against this allegedly new process,which its opponents condemn as a way of ordering people’S lives,brought globalization out of the financial and academic worlds and into everyday current affairs.()
In the late 1 980s and early 1 990s.the business model called the“globalized”financial market came to be seen as an entity that could have more than just an economic impact on the parts of the world it touched.Globalization came to be seen as more than simply a way of doing business,or running financial markets—it became a process.From then on the word took on a life of its own.So how does the globalized market work? It is modern communications that make it possible;for
the British service sector to deal with its customers through a call centre in India,or for a sportswear(运动服)manufacturer to design its products in Europe,make them in south.east Asia and sell them in north America.()
But this is where the anti—globalization side gets stuck in(关注).If these practices replace domestic economic life with an economy that is heavily influenced or controlled from overseas.then the creation of a globalized economic model and the process of globalization can also be seen as a surrender of power to the corporations,or a means of keeping poorer nations in their place。
Not everyone agrees that globalization is necessarily evil,or that globalized
corporations are running the lives of individuals or are more powerful than nations.Some say that the spread of globalization,free markets and free trade into the developing world is the best way to beat poverty—the only problem is that free markets and free()trade do not yet truly exist.Globalization can be seen as a positive,negative or even marginal process.And regardless of whether it works for good or ill,globalization’S exact meaning will continue to be the subject of debate among those who oppose,support or simply observe it。
16.Globalization is a term used only in the financial and academic worlds.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned()
17.Globalization can be best understood as a way of doing business.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
18.Modern communications play an important role in globalization.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
19.Britain has benefited quite a lot from globalization.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
20.The opponent believe that globalization will keep the poorer nations in poverty.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
21.The opponents think that globalization corporations have more power than nations.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned
22.Free markets and free trade will eventually prevail.A Right B Wrong C Not mentioned()

A New Citizenship Test Last week a sample of the new US citizenship(公民身份)exam was released by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services(US—CLS).It will be tried out in 1 0 cities early next year to replace the current test in 2008.Instead of asking how many stripes the USflag has,as the current test does,the new one asks why there are 13 stripes。Instead ofhaving to name the branches of government,an applicant is asked to explain why thereare three.“The goal is to make it more meaningful.”explains Emilio Gonzalez,director of theUS—CIS。Immigrants who pass it are expected to have a better“understanding and respect”for US civic(公民的)values,Gonzalez says.The US isn’t the only country dealing with citizenship tests that aim to get a“ sharedcommitment”from immigrants for their adopted country’s“values”,In recent years,Inaddition to the usual requirement of language/work skills and economic status-severalEuropean countries have adopted citizenship tests.Britain introduced a new citizenshiptest last November.In March,a new Dutch law took effect requiring all would—beimmigrants to take a citizenship test.It involved watching a video showing nude(裸体的)women bathing at beaches and gay(同性恋的)men kissing in public.The aim was toensure that“newcomers will be comfortable with the country’S liberal social mores(风俗)”.Europe has been known for welcoming immigrants for decades.But,today,the fact is that some immigrants are kept apart from local citizens by culture and they becomehostile to each other.Promoting integration has become a major concern for Europeancountries.after the rioting in Muslim ghettoes(少数民族聚居区)in France and the killingof Dutch public figures by religious extremists.Officials believe that a person’s attachment to a country can be tested by his or herknowledge of the country.However,some critics say that the changes can do little to helppeople’assimilate(同化)themselves.“Immigration is a culture war today-Is giving a newtest the right way to lessen the accusations in that fight?”says Ali Noorani,of theMassachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition(难民辩护联盟)paragraph 2___________ paragraph 3___________ paragraph 4___________ paragraph 5___________
A.Preparation for taking a citizenship test

第一篇Centers of the Great European Cities
The centers of the great cities of Europe are meeting places by tradition-People gather there to drink coffee and chat late into the night.A mixture of locals and tourists make for an exciting,metropolitan atmosphere.Squares,plazas(广场)and arcades(拱廊)form the heart of Europe’s cities.Venice in Italy has the Piazza San Marco—a beautiful square surrounded by shops,churches,restaurants and caf6s.In Barcelona,Spain,LaBosqueria is a lively market with hundreds of stalls selling all kinds of goods.London’s Covent Garden is filled with fruit and vegetable stalls by day and musicians,acrobats(杂技演员)and artists by night.The government buildings at the center of many cities often are architecturally impressive.In London,they serve as a beautiful backdrop(背景)to the coffee tables that line the streets and the banks of the Thames.These vibrant(有活力的)hearts are the product of centuries of evolution,social historian Joel Garreau told US News and World Report recently.“The reason people think Venice is so great today is you don’t see all the mistakes,”said Garreau-“ Those have all been removed.”Most European cities were laid out before the invention of the car, so bars.restaurants and cafes were near to,people’s homes.Today,the focus of many Europeans’life has moved away from the centers.They live in the suburbs and outskirts,driving to supermarkets to get their supplies.But on a continent where people treasure convention,there are still those who hold onto traditional ways,living and shopping locally.These people.together with tourists,provide the city centers with the reason for existence.Coffee culture plays a part in keeping these city centers flourishing.this is Particularly true of Paris whose citizens are famous enthusiastic conversationalists this skill is developed over many hours spent chatting over espressos(浓咖啡)and cigarettes.Religion also plays a role in developing sociable atmosphere.People In Roman Catholic countries used to visit the Church on an almost daily basis.Entire communities would gather in the same building and then move out to the markets.cafes and bars In the surrounding streets.An enormous example of this relationship between church and society is the Duomo。The huge marble cathedral in Florence,Italy IS surrounded by bakeries and coffee shops,and caters not only to the tourist crowds,but also the local community.31.It can be inferred from the first paragraph that each big city in Europe
A.has many large squares.B.has many very magnificent sky-scrapers.C.draws tourists in large numbers every year
D.has a center where tourists meet their spouses.32.Which statement is NOT true of Covent Garden?
A.It is crowded with people.B.It is located in London.C.it is filled with stalls.D.It is surrounded by shops,churches,restaurants and cafes

You hear this:“No wonder you are fat.All you ever do is eat.”You feel sad:t “I skip my breakfast and supper.I run every morning and evening.What else can I do?”Basically you can do nothing。
Your genes,not your life habits,determine your weight and your body constantly tries to maintain it.Albert Stunkard of the University of Pennsylvania found from experiments that,“80 percent of the children of two obese(肥胖的)parents become obese,as compared with no more than 14 percent of the offspring of two parents of normal weight.”
How can obese people become normal or even thin through dieting? Well,dieting can be effective, but the health costs are tremendous.Jules Hirsch,a research physician at Rockefeller University, did a study of eight fat people。They were given a liquid formula providing 600 calories a day.After more than 1 0 weeks,the subjects lost 45ka on average.But after leaving the hospital,they all regained weight.The results were surprising:by metabolic(新陈代谢的)measurement,fat people who lost large amounts of weight seemed like they were starving.They had psychiatric problems.They dreamed of food or breaking their diet.They were anxious and depressed;some were suicidal.They hid food in their rooms.Researchers warn that it is possible that weight reduction doesn'tresult In normal weight,but in an abnormal state resembling that of starved non—obese people.Thin people,however, suffer from the opposjte :They have to make a great effort to gain weight.Ethan Sims,of the University of Vermont,got prisoners to volunteer to gain weight?In four to six months,they ate as much as they could.They succeeded in increasing their weight by 20 to 25 percent。But months after the study ended.they were back to normal weight and stayed there.This does not mean that people are completely without hope in controlling their weight.It means that those who tend to be fat will have to constantly baffle their genetic inheritance if they want to significantly lower their weight。the findings also provide evidence for something scientists thought was true—each person has a comfortable weight range.The range might be as much as 9kg.Someone might weigh 60_69kg without too much effort.But going above or below the natural weight range is difficult.The body resists by feeling hungry or full and changing the metabolism to push the weight back to the range it seeks.36.What determines your weight?
A.Your working manner
B.Your eating habit。
C.Your life style.D.Your genes.37.What did Jules Hirsch do to the eight fat people in his study?
A.He let them skip supper
B.He let them skip breakfast.C.He let them run every morning and evening.D.He gave them a liquid formula providing 600 calories a day.38.What happened to the eight fat people after they left the hospital?
A.They went mad.B.They killed themselves.C.They were back to normal weight.D.They attempted suicide.39.Ethan Sims made his subjects
A.battle their genetic inheritance
B.increase their weight.C.suffer from hunger
D.lower their weight.40.What did scientists think was true?
A.Each person has a fixed weight range.B.Each person has a weight range of 9kg.C.Each person wants to control his or her weight.D.Each person wants to eat to his or her heart’s content
第三篇 Shaming Punishments
Last month,James Connolly,a junior at the University of Massachusetts,stood in front of a local police station wearing a toga(长袍)as punishment.His crime? He was charged with underage drinking,illegal possession of alcohol and excessive noise while holding a party.This shaming punishment has increased in the US in recent years,mostly imposed by local judges for less—serious crimes,such as drunk driving and theft.They believe shame is the best petty crime deterrent(威慑).For example,in Tennessee,Judge James McKenzie has made shoplifters(商店货物扒手)stand outside Wal — Mart with signs that read,“I am a thief put here by order of Judge McKenzie”,“Alternative punishments like community service and fines don’t convey moral condemnation(谴责)of the criminal,”said Dan Kahan,a University of Chicago Law School professor ,in an article published on the university’S website.“They aren’t shameful enough。”
Shaming punishments are sometimes called Scarlet(红色的)Letter punishments.The name comes from US author Nathaniel Hawthorne’S 1850 novel The Scarlet Letter.In this novel,a woman is forced to wear a scarlet “A”on her clothes as punishment forher adultery(通奸).However, University of Iowa law professor Andrew Hosmanek said there is an important difference between the shaming punishments of colonial America and those assigned in states like Tennessee.“Early societies often had are— acceptance’ ceremony to welcome the offender back into main society,”says Hosmanek.“Contemporary punishments in America lack this.”
Supporters of shaming punishment argue that public shaming is a good way of expressing community values。Some judges say shamed offenders seldom repeat their crimes.Others aren’t SO sure。“There is little evidence to suggest that shaming punishments are successful in preventing people from committing specific crimes.And a shamed criminal may face a hard battle to regain credibility in society,”said Hosmanek.“So,a shaming punishment may force the offender into more crimes to support himself.”
Experts also debate shaming punishment’S damage to human dignity.“Since the point is to shame,it's of course degrading(侮辱人格的),”said Linda Malone,director of the Human Rights and National Security Law Programme at William and Mary Law School.“US law only prohibits punishment that is‘cruel and unusual’一not‘inhuman and degrading’.it's very difficult for a thief to prove that holding a sign in front of Wal-Mart is ‘cruel and unusual’.”

第四篇:2011年职称英语考试综合类B级真题答案解析
2011年全国职称英语考试真题答案综合类(B级)
第1部分:词汇选项 A confess 这个动词是“坦白、交代、承认”的意思,admit也是“承认”的意思,两个词后面都可以跟用 that 引导的宾语从句,在这个句子里可以换用。D extract 作动词用是“获得、获取”的意思,在四个选项中只有 obtain 具有这样的意义,又如: extract help, extract satisfaction, extract information 等。
B accelerate 这个动词原意是“加速”,如:The trains have been accelerated.火车提速了;The steps 10 implement the plan are being accelerated.执行该计划的步伐正在加速。在本句中 accelerate his sale of shares(加速出售他的股票),无疑就是增加出售他的股票的意思,故选 increased。D motive 是“动机”的意思,the motive for(doing)something 即为“做某事的动机”,reason 是“理由”,the motive for the murder 和 the reason for the murder 是同一意思。C impact 和 influence 是同义词,意为“影响”,又如:the impact of modem technology on interpersonal relationships 现代技术对人际关系带来的影响。
D shine 这个动词通常用于表示“发亮、发光” 的意思,如: The sun is shining.但是如果和皮鞋一起用,那就是“擦皮鞋、把皮鞋擦亮”的意思了。本句的意思是:他的皮鞋擦得一尘不染。polish 具有“把......擦亮、磨光”的意思,clear 和 shoes 一起用的话便是 “把鞋子移开”的意思了,wash 则是用水洗,mend 是修补的意思。C explore 是“探索、探险、摸索” 的意思,investigate 除了常用的“调查”这层意思外,也具有“探索”这样的意义,本句的意思是:在会议上我们探索了扩充的可能性。
A steady 是“稳定的”意思,a steady decline 则是 “稳步下降”,在这个上下文中可以用 continuous 来代替它,即“不断下降”。sharp decline 则是“急剧下降”。
A remark 这个动词就是 “说”的意思,所以这里就用 saying 来代替它。B framework 就是我们现在常常说的“框架”,within the existing legal framework 指在现有的法律框架内。所谓法律框架实际上就是指法律体系,所以选 system。limit 是限制,procedure 是程序,status 是地位。D find fault with something/someone 是个固定的表达式,意为“找茬、吹毛求疵”,所以和 criticize(批评)基本同义。A spectacular 这个形容词常用来描述场面、景观等,意思是“壮观的、壮丽的、华丽的” 等,在四个选项中只有 magnificent 具有这样的意思。B grasp 这个动词是“抓住”的意思,可用于具体的事物,如:grasp the rope/ my hand 抓住绳索/抓住我的手,也可以用于抽象的概念,如: grasp the main idea/his meaning 抓
住要点/理解他的意思。在本句中 grasp the significance of what had happened 就相当于understand the significance of what had happened。C convert 的意思是“改变、转化”。turn 则是具有同样意义的一个更为常用的单词,两者后面都跟 into 来表示“变为……”。又如: Solar energy has been successfully converted/turned into mechanical energy.太阳能被成功地转化成机械能。The priest converted/turned him from a Buddhist into a Christian.那神父把他从 一个佛教徒变成了个基督徒。reduce 减少,reform 改造。D tolerate 是 “忍受”的意思,如: tolerate the heat 忍受酷热.tolerate the loneliness 忍受孤独,tolerate the humiliation 忍受屈辱。和它同义的词常用的有bear,endure 和 stand。
第2部分:阅读理解 B 从文章的第一句 For six hours we shot through the barren landscape of the Karoo desert in South Africa.便可以知道这句话是错的,shot 是动词 shoot 的过去时形式,shoot through 用以表示开车,那显然车是开得很快的;而且,他们开过的沙漠是一片荒漠(barren landscape),并非是一个busy desert。A 第一段里就说她已经写了整整三个笔记本,并且开始写第四本了。C 文中讲到 Daniel 用相机记录他在非洲的所见所闻,但并没有提到他拍摄过尼罗河(the Nile River)。A 从文章的第二、第三段可以看到他们两人在非洲看到了许多。B 实际上 Sophia 在开车,Daniel 则在睡觉,所以并非两人都看到了野马。B 文中说到And as I drove,something caught my eye.something moving close enough to touch them,to smell their hot breath.很显然,野马一度离他们的车很近,只是后来才渐渐远离了。B Daniel 是在 Sophia 看到野马一小时后自己醒来的—— When Daniel woke up an hour later I told him what had happened.并不是让Sophia 唤醒的。
第3 部分:概括大意与完成子 E 第一段的第一句话就讲世上几乎没有什么事我们是单枪匹马去完成的。接着作者举了好几个人们在群体中生活和工作的例子。所以 People are in groups.正是本段的中心。F 本段的第一句 In almost every situation where you're in a group,you will need a skilled leader.就是它的主题句。本段要讲的就是任何一个群体都需要有一个领导者。A 本段虽然以 Some people are natural leaders.(有些人生来就是当头的。)开始,但作者并不真正认同这一观点,这从 Although a 1ot of people agree that there are some natural-born leaders,most people now recognise that leadership can also be taught.这句话可以看到。所以 Training can make good 1eaders.概括了本段的大意。D 本段的第一句是它的主题句: Our training courses use activities and techniques to develop a range of qualities which are necessary to be a good leader.a range of qualities 就是a variety of qualities,即各种素质。C 答案可见第一段的最后一句:...being able to work successfully with other people is one of the major keys to success.E Groups often break down because of lack of good leaders.这句话是第二段中下面这句话的另一种说法: Groups without leaders or with weak leaders almost always break down.A 请见第二段里的这句话: Good leaders don't make people do things in a bossy,controlling way.B 请见第四段里这句话: Self-confidence is vital for you to overcome your own fears about being a leader.be vital for someone to do something 即对某人做某事是十分关键的,和 be the key to doing something 是同一个意思。
第4 部分:阅读理解
C 本题的答题依据是文章开头的这句话: Everyone has imagination,but most of us,once we become adults,forget how to access it.人人都有想象力,只是成年后,我们就忘了如何取得想象力(access it)。文章的目的就是教给成年人几种获得想象力的技巧,所以说成年人还是可以学会怎么样更加富有创意的。
B 从第二段的这两句话:First,think about the problem you have to solve or the job you need to do.Then find an image,word,idea or object,for example,a candle.可以找到答案。蜡烛只是一个例子。
A 第三段的第一句话: Imagine that normal limitations don’t exist.You have as much time/ space/money, etc.as you want.是本题的答题依据。
B put yourself in their shoes 是英语的一个成语,相当于汉语的“设身处地”.35 C 第三种技巧就是:Look at the situation from a different point of view.作者以谈判者和小说家为例,说明推销员如要应用这一技巧就应该把自己置于顾客的位置上,问一问他们的需要是什么。
A 文章的第一段把这一点讲得十分明确:...the so-called Generation M are spending a considerable amount of their time in fruitless efforts as they multitask.It argues that,in fact,these young people are frittering away as much as half of their time as they would if they performed the very same tasks one after the other.37 A 第二段的最后一句话: As some new device comes along, it is also added to the list rather than replacing one of the existing devices.回答了这个问题。只要有新的玩意儿出现,它就会被增加到现有的玩意儿上去,而不是替代原有的东西。注意四个选项里的they 指的是 e-devices 而不是属于Generation M 这一代的年轻人。
D 根据文章的内容应选 D。distant to their family 意为 ”和自己的家人疏远“。具体可见第三段。
D 答题的依据是第五段里的这句话: They feel that many undergraduates now urgently need remedia1 help with study skills.可见在大学教师看来许多本科生急需补上学习技能这一课。
A 这道题的答题依据是文章的最后一段,作者认为尽管上面所说的都没错,但是(注意 while 这个连接词的转折意义)我们要记住现今对年轻人的期望越来越高。不管老一辈怎么说他们(注意 despite这个介词表示的让步意义),对他们(年轻人)还是应该给予表扬而不是批评(Praise rather than criticism is due)。To be due 应该得到。
D 第一段里讲到了人们拥有手机的几种理由,其中不包括手机便宜(cheap)这一条。
C detect 意为”觉察、发现“,故可用 discover 来代替。
A 第三段里把这名推销员年纪轻轻就要退休的原因讲得十分明白:...a traveling salesman had to retire at a young age because of serious memory loss.He couldn't remember even simple tasks.44 A 请见第四段里的这句话:Mobile phone companies agree that there is some radiation,but they say the amount is too small to worry about.它们并不否认手机有辐射,只是辐射量很小无需担心。
B 作者建议大家少用手机,这一点在最后一段里可以清楚地看到。
第5 部分:补全短文
A 第一段是文章的引言,说的是当今有了电视和杂志这样的媒体,名人到处可见,但是情况并非一向如此,80 年前收音机和电影才刚开始对美国人产生这样的效应,也就是才能向美国的公众介绍宣传Lindberg,使他成为名人。
D 这个空的前一句说的是 Lindberg 在大学读工程学位,但是飞行吸引了他的想象;其后的一句则讲他自己买了飞机在各地表演空中特技,所以在中间自然应该填入他辍学并移居到 Nebraska 去学习飞行这句话。
F 前一句说到Lindberg 参军,在飞行员班里第一个毕业,这样正好接上 Lindbergh used this additional training to get a job as an airmail pilot,flying out of St.Louis,Missouri.这句话。
B 前面一句讲了Lindberg 觉得要完成这次飞行自己的技术没有问题,但并非任何一架飞机都能飞这么远。所以下面就接上他找到了 San Diego 的一家飞行器公司定做了一架飞机。
C 六个选项中只有这个选项是和他回到美国后得到的荣誉有关的。
第6 部分:完形填空
C the diagnosis of his illness Parkinson's disease 他的不适被诊断为帕金森氏病
B criticism of something/someone 对某事/某人的批评,这里 of 的宾语表示的是 criticism这个动作的对象;其他三个介词都不能用。
A opposition to 反对……
A take up 是个短语,意为”从事……”,take up the sport 从事该项运动,take up filmmaking 从影,take up charity 从事慈善事业。
C 尽管 A1i不主张开展女子拳击,但他出席女儿的职业赛似乎传递了一个父亲的支持,他自然是想看女儿比赛的,故 watch his daughter fight。
D 这里有一个比较结构 as much …as…,被比较的是女儿的首次比赛和父亲以前的比赛吸引公众的程度,两个比较的对象理应是同一事物,所以选 fight。
D 从观众的角度来看总是希望比赛紧张一点、精彩一点,双方势均力敌才有看点,所以 Laila 的对于明显比她弱,对观众来说就是一件不幸的事了。
C to know what one is doing 是一种常见的、相对固定的表达方式,意思是:知道该怎么做、做得不错。
B compare...to...这里是 “和......作比较”的意思,也可以说 “compare...with..., compare...to...的另一种意思是”把……比作为……"。
C make her own name 自己成名(不靠她父亲)
B 这里说的是Laila 已经明白的事,所以用 realize。suggest 和 propose都是建议,hope则是希望。
B 这里的 if 相当于whether;to see if(whether)she still wants to go forward with it 看她是否还想继续下去。
D struggle with the symptoms of Parkinson's disease和帕金森氏病的症候斗争。
B 对Laila 在那样一个时刻所作出的那样一个决定人们的反应有赞扬,也有批评。
C arrival on the boxing scene of a woman 一名女性出现在拳击场上,注意这里的词序,实际上是 the arrival of a woman on the boxing scene。
