聪明的人,不管年轻还是年老,遇到新的情况或问题,他都会试图以自己认为的方式,用心灵和感官去感受一切关于自己的事物,而不是回避对自己或可能会导致发生在自己身上的事情,他会大胆的处理它,想象力、机智,如果没有自信,至少还有希望,如果他没有掌握它,他看起来没有羞耻或害怕自己的错误和学习他们有什么他可以。这是情报。显然,其根源在于在对生活的一定的感情,和一个人的生命的自我。正因如此,导致大多数心理学家喜欢假设。

三、阅读理解题 1.(编辑:白天骄)
Since the late 1960s a growing number of women have expressed a strong dissatisfaction with any marriage arrangement wherein the husband and his career are the primary considerations in the marriage.By the end of the 1970s, for example, considerably less than half of the women in the United States still believed that they would put their husbands and children ahead of their own careers.More and more American women have come to believe that they should be equal partners rather than junior partners in their marriages.This stage of marriage, although not typical of most American marriages at present, will grow most rapidly in the future.In an equal partnership marriage, the wife pursues a full time job or career which has equal importance to her husband's.The long-standing division of labor between husband and wife comes to an end.The husband is no longer the main provider of
family income, and the wife no longer has the main responsibilities for household duties and raising children.Husband and wife share all these duties equally.Power over family decisions is also shared equally.The rapid change in women's attitudes toward marriage in 1970s reflected rapid change in the larger society.The women's Liberation movement appeared in the late 1960s, demanding an end to all forms of sexual discrimination against females.An Equal Rights Amendment(修正案)to the U.S.Constitution was proposed which would make any form of discrimination on the basis of sex illegal, and though it has failed to be ratified, it continues to have millions of supporters.1. Since the late 1960s, more and more women dissatisfied with the marriage ________.A. arranged by other people B. in which husband and children are put in the first place C. in which they themselves have superior privilege D. arranged by their husbands 2. In an equal partnership marriage, ________.A. the wife is the main provider of family income B. the wife no longer has household duty C. the husband and wife share the responsibility for the family D. the husband and wife will not quarrel in the family 3. The Women's Liberation Movement ________.A. maintains sexual equality
B. claims to get rid of family responsibility C. began in the end of 1970s D. thinks that husband and wife should interchange roles in family 4. The word “ratified”(the forth line in paragraph 3)probably means ________.A. encouraged B. objected
C. disproved D. confirmed
5. In 1970s, women's attitude toward marriage changed rapidly because ________.A. women's liberation movement appeared in the late 1960s B. an Equal Rights Amendment to the U.S.Constitution was proposed C. husband is no longer the main provider of family income D. both A and B 2.(编辑:白天骄)
The skin which covers the tips of the fingers and thumbs is crossed by numerous ridges(隆 起)arranged in different patterns.This patterns are permanent from birth and remain exactly the same throughout a person's life, even when the skin becomes wrinkled and cracked as a result of old age.Such patterns are never passed on from parents to children, and no one in the world has the same patterns as anyone else.Even identical twins have different sets of fingerprints.As a result, fingerprints offer a most useful and foolproof way of identifying people.Any ridged part of the hand and the foot may be used as a means of identification, but finger impressions are usually preferred since they can be taken easily and quickly.Fingerprints are classified in the ways: by general shapes and contours, by the finger positions of the pattern-types, and by size(often measured by counting the ridges in the loops).Every set of fingerprints has different “ridge characteristics”(i.e.the print of each separate finger is different from that of all the other fingers), which belong to one of four basic groups: arches, loops, whorls and composites.All fingerprints can then be divided into 1, 024 groups.By using details in the patterns above, these 1, 024 groups can be further divided into thousands of smaller groups, thus making it possible to find a particular see prints in a few minutes.1. According to this passage, the true statement about human fingerprints is that ________.A. people's fingerprints can be inherited B. people's fingerprints are unique but identical twins may have the same fingerprints C. using fingerprints is the only way to identify people D. people's fingerprints will not change in all their lives
2. We prefer to use fingerprints to identify people because ________.A. we can never find the same set of fingerprints among human beings
B. finger impressions can be taken easily and quickly C. fingerprints offer a most useful and foolproof way of identifying people D. all of the above 3. About the classification of fingerprints, which is TRUE? ________.A. Fingerprints can be classified in three ways B. All fingerprints can be divided into 1, 024 groups and can not be divided further C. It is not easy to find a particular set of fingerprints in a short time D. People can not classify the fingerprints in an effective way
4. The word“foolproof”(line 7, pare.1)most probably means ________.A. that is permanent B. that is helpful C. that is not foolish D. that can not go wrong 5. The passage is most probably taken from an article entitled ________.A. Permanent Fingerprints B. Classification of Fingerprints C. Ridge Characteristics D. A Means of Identification 3.(编辑:白天骄)
When a consumer finds that an item she or he bought is faulty or in some other way doesn't live up to the manufacture's claim for it, the first step is to present the warranty(保单), or any other records which might help, at the store of purchase.In most cases, this action will produce results.However, if it does not, there are various means the consumer may use to gain satisfaction.A simple and common method used by many consumers is to complain directly to the store manager.In general, the “higher up”the consumer takes his or her complaint, the faster he or she can expect it to be settled.In such a case, it is usually settled in the consumer's favour, assuring he or she has a just claim.Consumers should complain in person whenever possible, but if they cannot get to the place of purchase, it is acceptable to phone or write the complaint in a letter.Complaining is usually most effective when it is done politely but firmly, and especially when the consumer can demonstrate what is wrong with the item in question.If this cannot be done, the consumer will succeed best by presenting specific information as to what is wrong, rather than by making general statements.For example, “The left speaker does not work at all and the sound coming out of the right one is unclear”is better than“This stereo(立体声音响)does not work.”
1. The possible meaning of the phrase“live up to”(line 2, para.1)may be ________.A. to make up to consumers B. to keep to the high standards of C. to be the best compared with others D. to stand for salesmen's benefits 2. If a consumer finds what she or he bought doesn't live up to the manufacture's claim for it, ________.A. presenting the warranty is the only way to settle the problem B. there are many ways for the consumer to gain satisfaction C. the first thing to do is to threaten to take the matter to court D. what she or he should do is to keep silent 3. If a consumer complain in person to the store manager,__________.A. it's possible to settle the problem in the consumer's favour B. the consumer can surely get the compensation C. the salesgirl is surely scolded by the manager D. the consumer is surely refused 4. The most effective complaint can be made ________.A. in a firm and exaggerated way B. by presenting specific information as to what is wrong C. by making general statements
D. by complaining to the manager loudy and firmly 5. the main idea in this passage is about ________.A. salesmen's strategies to satisfy consumers B. consumers' strategies to get the most from the store C. how to buy satisfactory goods D. how to protect consumers' rights

七、英译汉题
1. Organization also makes a difference in our ability to remember.How useful would a library be if the books were kept in random order? Material that is organized is better remembered than jumbled information.One example of organization is chunking.Chunking consists of grouping separate bits of information.For example, the number 4671363 is more easily remembered if it is chunked as 467,13,63.Categorizing is another means of organization.Suppose you are asked to remember the following list of
words: man, bench, dog, desk, woman, horse, child, cat chair.Many people will group the words into similar categories and remember them as follows: man, woman, child;cat, dog, horse;bench, chair, desk.Needless to say, the second list can be remembered more easily than the first one.

Passage OneQuestions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Among the company was a lawyer, a young man of about twenty-five.On being asked his opinion, he said, ”Capital punishment and life imprisonment are equally immoral.If I were to make a choice between them, I would rather choose the latter Anyway, it's better to live than not to live at all.“ A lively discussion followed.A banker, who was then younger and more nervous than the lawyer, suddenly lost his temper and cried out, ”It's a lie.I bet you two million.You wouldn't stick in a cell even for five years.“ ”If you mean it,“ replied the young lawyer, ”I bet I'll stay there longer;make it fifteen instead of five.“ ”Fifteen!Done!“ cried the banker.”Gentleman, I bet you two millions.“ ”Agreed.Two millions for my freedom,“ said the lawyer.So this wild, ridiculous bet came to pass.The banker could not hide his excitement During supper he said to the lawyer jokingly, ”Come to your senses, young man, before it's too late.Two millions are nothing to me, but you stand to lose three or four of the best years of your life.I say three or four because you'll never stick it out any longer Don't forget that voluntary imprisonment is much harder to put up with than a enforced one.The idea that you have the right to free yourself any moment will poison your life in the cell.I pity you.“ And now the banker, pacing from comer to comer, recalled all this and asked himself, ”Why did I make this bet? What's the good? The lawyer lost fifteen years of hi life and I threw away two millions.Will it convince people that capital punishment is worse or better than imprisonment for life? No, no!Rubbish!On my part, it was the caprice(心血来潮)of a well-fed millionaire;on the lawyer's part, it's the pure greed c gold." 21.The lawyer would choose life imprisonment because.A.he was younger than the banker B.capital punishment was immoral C.it was better than capital punishment D.the banker would give him $200,000 22.The author considers the bet between the lawyer and the banker.A.interestingB.ridiculous C.capriciousD.instructive 23.The word 'company' in the first paragraph refers to __.A.companionsB.bankers C.lawyersD.prisoners 24.The banker was extremely excited because __.A.he was too rich to care for the money B.he was sure of his winning the bet C.the lawyer would give up in 15 years D.the lawyer would give up before 5 years 25.In the end, the banker considers his bet with the lawyer __.A.rationalB.reasonableC.beneficialD.unreasonable Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.Online learning is also called distance education, which helps students who take classes by computer over the Internet to learn certain courses and earn a degree.And it has become more and more popular with both young people and educational institutions.The School of Continuing and Professional Studies of New York University in Manhattan began online classes in 1992.Its Virtual School has taught more than 10,000 students from across the United States and other countries.Last year,the school launched NYU Online.It offers NYU's first online Programs for a bachelor's degree.Programs are offered in three areas;leadership And management, information systems management and social sciences.The classes are highly interactive where students communicate with each other and their teachers.Some classes require students to log in at the same time so they can attend live lectures by a professor Students can also ask questions and work together on team projects.The cost to attend NYU Online depends on how many classes a student is to take It costs as much as fifteen thousand dollars a year.NYU offers no financial aid for international students in this program.If you are interested in the program, you can gel more details at the website: www.xiexiebang.common belief that the problems of the population explosion are caused mainly by poor people living in poor countries who do not know enough to limit their reproduction.This is not true.The actual number of people in an area is not as important as the effect they have on nature.Developing countries do have an effect on their environment, but it is the populations of richer countries that have a far greater impact on the earth as a whole.For example, tropical forests are known to be essential to the balance of nature, yet we are destroying them at a great rate.They are being cleared not to benefit the natives of that country, but to satisfy the needs of rich countries.Central American forests are being destroyed for grassland to make pet food in the United States cheaper;in Papua slew Guinea, forests are destroyed to supply cheaper cardboard packaging for Japanese electronic products;in Burma and Thailand, forests have been destroyed to produce more attractive furniture in Singapore and Hong Kong.Therefore, a rich person living thousands of miles away may cause more tropical forest destruction than a poor person living in the forest itself.In short, it is everybody's duty to safeguard the future of mankind—not only through population control, but by being more aware of the effect his actions have on nature.Nature is both fragile and powerful.It is very easily destroyed;on the other hand, it can easily destroy its most dangerous enemy—man.31.According to the first paragraph, people usually believe that.A.poor people in poor countries contribute to the imbalance of nature B.rich people know how to protect the environment by taking actions C.people in poor areas know a lot about the birth control D.rich people in rich countries have done a lot to balance nature 32.In the author's opinion, __.A.developing countries should be responsible for environmental problems B.overpopulation in the world is created by the developed countries C.rich countries exercise worse influence on environment than poor countries D.all countries should bring the population growth under control 33.The purpose of the second paragraph is mainly to illustrate __.A.how the forests in the U.S.are being destroyed B.which countries are the victims of the imbalance of nature C.what Japan has done to develop its own economy D.how South Asian countries make quality furniture 34.Nature is very easily destroyed by __.A.rich peopleB.poor people C.natural disastersD.mankind 35.The topic of the passage is that __.A.the control of population is essential to the development of a nation B.natural resources are important to the economic development of a country C.awareness of the effects of man's actions is as important as population control D.developed countries should do more to protect natural environment on the earth IV.Word Spelling(10 points, 1 point for two items)将下列汉语单词译成英语。每个单词的词类、首字母及字母数目均已给出。请将完整的单词写在答题纸上。

are 11 of reasons for this.One of them is the overload of messages most of us 12 each day.In addition to the numerous hours we 13 hearing other people speak, we may spend several hours listening to the radio or sitting in front of a television set.14, it is impossible to focus our attention completely on what is said;our mind might be 15 elsewhere.Preoccupation with our personal concerns is 16 reason we don’t always listen carefully.A romance 17 sour or a good grade on a test may take prominence in our mind even as 18 is speaking to us.Furthermore, we are surrounded by all kinds of noises which interfere 19 listening.For example, voices at a party or 20 of traffic may simply make it difficult for us to catch everything that is being said.11.A.the number B.a number C.number D.numbers

each)Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.Many of today’s most trusted sales techniques were invented over a century ago by a young merchant named Eaton in Toronto.When he was young, Eaton worked briefly with his brothers in small-town stores.In 1869, he sep up his own shop in downtown Toronto.He had many competitors, but he was also ambitious and had a plan for success.He offered a unique style of trade, but as was expected, all the other shopkeepers laughed at him, believing he would eventually fail.However, Eaton was not a man to be easily defeated;he came up with a brand new notion of business – ―Goods satisfactory, or money refunded.‖ He sold all his goods at fixed prices and only for cash.With a sharp sense of what the public wanted, he went out of the way to meet their needs.His business grew rapidly.He set up new branches and started mail order service that allowed people to buy from a list of his goods.Eaton’s list—advertisements of his day—was the first of its kind.It was distributed and read all over the country.It was the only way to access good-quality goods at reasonable prices for people living far away from big cites.It became part of their life.They even called it The Wishing Book.The secret of the list’s success was that Eaton gained the respect of this customers;they trusted him for good prices and quality goods.Probably because he remembered his miserable early days in Ireland, Eaton thought much of the welfare of his employees: better working conditions, shorter weekday hours than his competitors and Saturday afternoons off in the summer.In all this, he was a leader.21.The best description of Eaton is that ______.A.he was the richest merchant in Toronto B.he was a successful technical inventor C.he introduced new sales practices D.he changed people’s ideas about businessmen 22.Eaton’s success lay primarily in that ____.A.he sold only good quality goods B.he was the first person to provide good service C.he treated his employees better than any of his competitors D.he won respect from his customers 23.From the passage we can infer that ______.A.Eaton invented the idea of the internet

Many young people feel that life for their parents was easier.In the 1960s young people played in the streets more and traveled around town without their parents.―At least our parents can keep tabs on us,‖ says 16-year-old Julia.―So many people have mobile phones now and their parents ring to find out where they are.I use my mobile to get Dad to come to the station when I arrive late.‖ Mobiles are not just expensive toys;they help keep young people safe.Most significantly, they help keep young people safe.Most significantly, they make parents feel better.Only one problem is, though, that some young people have been attacked by thieves who want to steal their mobile phones.Young people like going out with friends, but they now need to learn how to get home safely.Five million young people in the UK between the ages of 9 to 16 use chat rooms to make friends, but they, too, need to be careful and never give their personal details to a stranger.Young people today have more opportunities to meet new people and go out at night more than their parents ever did.Now school, television programs and newspapers must help teenagers to enjoy their freedom and to be responsible for their own safety.31.Some parents are upset about the summer holidays mainly because their children ______.A.wander around on bus in the city B.chat to strangers in Internet chat rooms C.make questionable friends on the net D.are taken little care of by teachers 32.For the sake of the safety, many parents send their kids to school ________.A.by car B.by bus C.by train D.by public transport 33.Most significantly, mobile phones _______.A.enable parents keep a close watch on their kids B.help keep teenagers safe C.make parents feel less worried D.protect teenagers from being attacked 34.Teenagers should never give any strangers ______.A.their mobile phone numbers B.their family address C.their personal information D.their parents’ names 35.This passage is mainly about ________.A.freedom for teenagers in summer holidays B.safety for teenagers in summer holidays C.activities for teenagers in summer holidays D.troubles for teenagers in summer holidays PART TWO(50 POINTS)IV.Word Spelling(10 points, 1 point for two items)将下列汉语单词译成英语。每个单词的词类、首字母及字母数目均已给出。请将完整的单词写在答题纸上。36.获胜者,优胜者 n.w_ _ _ _ _ 37.(使)枯萎,凋谢 v.w_ _ _ _ _ 38.垂直的,竖的 a.v_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 39.易变的,变量的 a.v_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 40.唯一的,独特的 a.u_ _ _ _ _ 41.地下的,隐蔽的 a.u_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 42.真实的,如实地 ad.t_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 43.星期二 n.T_ _ _ _ _ _ 44.传统,惯例 n.t_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 45.同情,同情心 n.s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 46.投降,让步 vi.s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 47.足够的,充分的 a.s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 48.亲属,亲戚 n.r_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 49.抵抗,反抗 n.r_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 50.有目的的,蓄意的 a.p_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 51.财产;性质 n.p_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 52.俯望,漏看 vt.o_ _ _ _ _ _ _ 53.发源,源自 vi.o_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ 54.音乐的,悦耳的 a.m_ _ _ _ _ _ 55.意图,打算 n.i_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

VII.Translation from English into Chinese(15 points)将下列短文译成汉语并将答案写在答题纸上。
There is a clear distinction between one who is supposed to know and another, usually a younger person who is supposed not to know.However, teaching is not necessarily the area of a special group of people, nor should it be looked upon as a technical skill.Teaching can be more like guiding and assisting than forcing information into a blank mind.If you have a certain skill, you should be able to share it with others.You do not have to get a certificate to convey what you know to them or to help them in their attempt to teach themselves.All of us, from the very youngest children to the oldest members of our society, should come to realize our own talent and abilities as teachers.We can share what we know, however little it might be, with others who have need of that knowledge or skill.2006年4月高等教育自学考试全国统一命题考试 英语

VII.Translation from English into Chinese(本大题共15分)一般认为,有知识的人与没有知识的人――他们通常是较年轻的人――之间的区别非常明显。然而,教学不一定是某个特殊群体的领域,也不应该被看作是一项专业技能。教学不止是将信息硬塞进空白的头脑,而更应是指导和帮助。只要你有某种特定的技能,你就应当能与他人分享。你没必要持有证书才能把你的知识传授给他人,或为他们的自学提供帮助。我们社会中每一个成员,从蹒跚学步的孩童到耄耋之年的老者,都应当意识到自己作为教师的才能。尽管我们可能知之甚少,但仍应能与那些需要我们的人来分享我们的知识和技能。〔评分参考〕
