4.Part CDirections:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2. (10 points)In his autobiography, Darwin himself speaks of his intellectual powers with extraordinary modesty. He points out that he always experienced much difficulty in expressing himself clearly and concisely, but (46) he believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations. He disclaimed the possession of any great quickness of apprehension or wit, such as distinguished Huxley. (47) He asserted, also, that his power to follow a long and purely abstract train of thought was very limited, for which reason he felt certain that he never could have succeeded with mathematics. His memory, too, he described as extensive, but hazy. So poor in one sense was it that he never could remember for more than a few days a single date or a line of poetry. (48) On the other hand, he did not accept as well founded the charge made by some of his critics that, while he was a good observer, he had no power of reasoning. This, he thought, could not be true, because the “Origin of Species” is one long argument from the beginning to the end, and has convinced many able men. No one, he submits, could have written it without possessing some power of reasoning. He was willing to assert that “I have a fair share of invention, and of common sense or judgment, such as every fairly successful lawyer or doctor must have, but not, I believe, in any higher degree.” (49) He adds humbly that perhaps he was “superior to the common run of men in noticing things which easily escape attention, and in observing them carefully.”Writing in the last year of his life, he expressed the opinion that in two or three respects his mind had changed during the preceding twenty or thirty years. Up to the age of thirty or beyond it poetry of many kinds gave him great pleasure. Formerly, too, pictures had given him considerable, and music very great, delight. In 1881, however, he said: “Now for many years I cannot endure to read a line of poetry. I have also almost lost my taste for pictures or music.” (50) Darwin was convinced that the 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.(46) he believes that this very difficulty may have had the compensating advantage of forcing him to think long and intently about every sentence, and thus enabling him to detect errors in reasoning and in his own observations

    Scientists working on a problem do not know and sometimes can't even guess what the final result will be.Late on Friday,8 November,1895,Professor Rontgen,a German physicist,was doing an experiment in his laboratory when he noticed something extraordinary.He had covered an electric bulb with black cardboard,and when he switched on the current he saw little dancing lights on his table.Now the bulb was completely covered;_________(46)?On the table there were some pieces of paper which had been covered with metal salts.It was on this paper that the lights were shining. Professor Rontgen took a piece of this paper and held it at a distance from the lamp.Between it and the lamp he placed a variety of objects,a book,a pack of cards,a piece of wood and a door key. __________(47).He called his wife into the laboratory and asked her to hold her hand between the lamp and a photographic plate._________(48),but she held up her hand for a quarter of an hour, and when the plate was developed there was a picture of the bones of her hand and of the ring on one finger. The mysterious ray could pass through the flesh and not through the bone or the ring.
    At a scientific meeting,Professor Rontegen called this new ray "the unknown" the X-ray. _________(49),and soon there were X-ray machines in all the big hospitals.The most obvious use for this discovery was to enable doctors to see exactly how a bone was fractured._________(50).It was found that these rays could be used to destroy cancer cells,just as they destroyed the healthy cells of the doctors who first used the machines.Methods were found later by which ulcers in the stomach could be located,and the lungs could be X-rayed to show if there was any tuberculosis present.

    _______（49）
    A:The ray penetrated every one of them except the key
    B:She was very surprised by this request
    C:how then could any ray penetrate
    D:It was a great invention
    E:Other uses came later
    F: Doctors quickly saw how this could be used

    答案：F
    解析：
    前一句及该句意为：现在的灯泡被完全覆盖；怎么会有射线穿透呢？
    前一句“在纸和灯之间，他放置了各种不同的物体，一本书、一包卡片、一块木头和一把门钥匙”是实验的步骤方法，该句“射线穿透了除钥匙以外的每一件物体”是实验的结果。
    该句中this request指代前一句“He called his wife into the laboratory and asked her to hold her hand between the lamp and a photographic plate."
    该句的意思是：医生很快知道该如何运用它，不久X光机出现在所有的大医院里。
    “其他用途随后出现”是承上启下句。前一句为“The most obvious use for this discovery was to enable doctors to see exactly how a bone was fractured"，该句后面细述它的用途。

    问答题
    In this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summery below by choosing a maximum of three words from the passage to fill in each of the blanks 51-5.Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.　　For many years after he formed his Theory of Relativity, Albert Einstein visited many universities in different cities where he gave talks about it. He had his own chauffeur who drove him to where he was to give the talk. The chauffeur sat at the back of the room while he was giving his lecture, and then drove him home.　　One day, the chauffeur said to Einstein, “Professor, I have heard you give your talk so many times that I know every word of it.” “Do you?” Einstein said with a smile. “Let’s find out, shall we? You give my next talk for me. Nobody knows what I look like where we’re going. I’m just a name to them.” Just before they reached the university where Einstein was to give his talk, he changed places with his chauffeur.　　The chauffeur’s memory was excellent and he was able to give Einstein’s talk exactly as Einstein gave it. He did not understand a word he was saying, but this did not seem to matter. Then, as he was leaving the university, one of the teachers who had been at the talk came up to him.　　“Professor Einstein,” he said. “That was a most interesting talk. I’d be grateful if you would answer a question.” The chauffeur hurried on. “I’m sorry,” he said, “but I’m late for my next meeting.”　　“I’ll walk with you,” the teacher said. “I want to talk to you about the problem.” The teacher walked along beside the chauffeur and asked him to solve a very difficult mathematical problem.　　The poor chauffeur couldn’t understand the problem, let alone attempt an answer. He did not know what to say. Then he had an idea. “It’s so simple,” he said. “Even my chauffeur could answer it.”　　He pointed to his car, where Einstein was standing, still wearing the chauffeur’s cap.　　“This man has a maths question,” he said to Einstein. “It’s so easy I’m sure even you can answer it.”　　Summary:　　Albert Einstein was a famous scientist who worked out the Theory of Relativity. He used to travel around the country with his chauffeur giving (1)      on mathematics. His chauffeur knew his talk very well so Einstein asked him to give the talk at the next (2)      where they did not know him. The chauffeur did well, but afterwards a teacher came up to him and asked him a difficult (3)      .The chauffeur did not know the answer but he said, “This problem is so simple I’m sure my chauffeur knows (4)      it.” Then he pointed to Einstein still standing (5)      beside the car.

    正确答案：
    1.talks  文章第一话明确指出爱因斯坦经常带着他的司机到各地演讲。
    2.university  由第二段最后一句话可看出他们是到大学做演讲。
    3.mathematical problem  由第五段最后一句话可以看出那个老师问的是一道非常难的数学题。
    4.how to solve  could answer it也就是know how to solve it。
    5.in his cap  in his cap是wearing the chauffeur’s cap的另一种说法。

  • 第12题：

    单选题
    He didn’t buy the book because he was interested in poetry.
    A

    He didn’t buy the book because he was not interested in poetry.

    B

    He bought the book, but it is not because he was interested in poetry.

    C

    He bought the book because he was interested in poetry.

    D

    He bought the book because he was not interested in poetry.


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    该题考查否定转移。原句“因为他对诗歌感兴趣，所以他没买书”，并不构成因果关系。有时，在把汉语中对状语的否定译成英语时，应把其转换为对谓语的否定，因此本句表达的应是“他并不是因为对诗歌感兴趣才买的书”，所以选项B为正确答案。

  • 第15题：

    Professor Nelson said he had arrived on the _____night.

    A. Before

    B. Former

    C. Previous

    D. foregoing


    答案：C

    解析：因为选项C, Previous 翻译成中文是“之前，前一个”的意思，加入到句子中，Professor Nelson said he had arrived on the previous night. 翻译成中文是“尼尔森教授说，他前一个晚上就已经到了”。所以应该选C。


  • 第16题：

    After that, he knew he could any emergency by doing what be could to the best of his ability.

    A．get away with

    B．get on with

    C．get through

    D．get across


    正确答案：C
    解析：本题考查与get相关的短语辨析。分析四个选项的意思：get away with侥幸逃脱；get on with与……有好相处；get through接通，顺利通过，完成；get across被理解，越过。根据语境：经过那件事之后，他明白了他能尽一切可能去顺利解决任何突发情况。

  • 第17题：

    It's said that he's looking for a new job, one_________ he can get more free time.

    A．when
    B．where
    C．that
    D．which

    答案：B
    解析：
    考查定语从句。one是a newjob的同位语，同时one是先行词，后面是个定语从句，由于定语从句he can get more free time不缺少任何成分，说明空格处在从句中作状语，需要用where引导，意为“从新工作中获得更多的自由时间”。如果选which的话，应该是one(a job)from which he can get more free time，故选B。

  • 第18题：

    He said his government hadn’t appointed any（ ）.

    A.delegation
    B.delegates
    C.organization
    D.mission

    答案：D
    解析：
    句意：他说他的政府还没有委任任何代表。A.delegation和D.mission都可以表示代表团。delegation是一般用词，主要是指以大众的名义被派往某地去完成某工作、任务的代表团。mission可以是负有某种特殊使命，或是被派往国外去完成某一官方使命的一群人，它往往侧重于官方的某一重要任务。

  • 第19题：

    Jim was eating the cakes on his way back home.When he got home,his mother asked him,"What did Dr.Jones say,my boy?"Jim answered,"He said good food is better than any medicine for my stomachache.So I went and bought some cakes instead of buying medicine."

    Jim is a boy marked by his

    A.cleverness
    B.honesty
    C.greed

    B

    which to base on

    C

    to base on

    D

    to be based on


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    教授难以找到充足的论据来证明他赞成新理论的论点。此句中的先行词which在从句中作base on的宾语，此处考查的是名词+介词+which/whom+动词不定式结构的定语从句。
