  • 第3题:

    Friends play an important part in our lives, but we don&39;t know much about how to make friends. As we get to know people, we consider things like age, races, looks and social positions. Thus it is more difficult for people to become friends if there is a big difference in age and background. However, some people don&39;t think these factors are of the most importance.


    正确答案:

    朋友在我们的生活中扮演着重要的角色,但我们对如何交朋友却知之甚少。当我们认识人时,我们会考虑年龄、种族、外表和社会地位。因此,如果年龄和背景有很大的差异,人们就很难成为朋友。然而,有些人并不认为这些因素是最重要的。

    [试题分析] 事实判断题。
    [详细解答] 意为:“不想让人认为他们的晋升是出于性别和肤色原因”。即:不想让人误以为老板是因为喜欢她或让别人知道自己对不同肤色的人公平看待才给他们晋升的。最后一段指出,克里蒙的观点是否有点荒唐呢?对于许多人来说,特别是对妇女和像克里蒙这样的少数民族来说并不荒唐,因为他们感到自己已看到事情的本质(the scales have dropped from their eyes)。贾米森在纽约做管理顾问,帮助公司处理这方面的事务,她说:“公司工作的妇女和黑人经常有些错误认识,认为只要努力工作,就会有晋升的机会——领导层的人会下顾(reach down),给你升职。妇女和黑人大都害怕人们会认为他们升职是因为自己的性别或肤色,所以他们尽量不出头露面宣扬自己(play down their visibility)。”对于这些人,她的忠告是:学学白人男性们引人注目(find their way into the spotlight)的一贯做法。

  • 第7题:

    Passage Four

    Most people do not think of fishes and other sea animals as having voices, and of those who are aware of the fact that many of them can "speak", few understand that these "conversations" have significance. Actually, their talk may be as meaningful as much of our own. For example, some sea animals use their "voices" to locate their food in the ocean expanses (广阔的区域); others use their "voices" to let their fellows know of their locations; and still others, as a means of obtaining mates. Sometimes, "speaking" may even mean the difference between life and death to a sea animal. It appears in some cases that when a predator (食肉动物) approaches, the prey (被捕的动物) depends on no more than the sounds it makes to escape.

    Fish sounds are important to man, also. By listening to them, he can learn a great deal about he habits of creatures that make them, the size of the School they form, the patterns of their migrations, and the nature of the environments in which they live. He can also apply this nformation to the more effective utilization of the listening spots he has set up to detect enemy submarines (潜水艇). A knowledge of fish sounds can avoid confusion and unneeded effort when a "new" sound is picked up and the sound sentry (哨兵) must decide whether or not to call an alarm.

    46. Among the people who know that many sea animals have voices, few ______.

    A. know the meaning of their conversations

    B. realize that they can communicate with each other

    C. realize that they can make speeches

    D. could understand their conversations


    正确答案:A
    答案为A。根据第一段第一句, and of those who are aware of the fact that many of them can "speak", few understand that these "conversations' have significance 符合题意。其他选项在文中没有提及。

  • 第8题:

    资料:When we see well,we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are.
    People who are near-sighted can only see things that are very close to their eyes,Everything else seems blurry(=unclear).Many people who do a lot of work,such as writing,reading and sewing become near-sighted.
    People who are far-sighted suffer from just the opposite problem. They can see things that are far away,but they have difficulty in reading a book unless they hold it at arm’s length. If they want to do much reading,they must get glasses,too.
    Other people do not see clearly because their eyes are not exactly the right shape. They have what is called astigmatism. This,too,can be corrected by glasses. Some people’s eyes become cloudy because of cataracts. Long ago these people often became blind. Now,however,it is possible to operate on the cataracts and remove them.
    Having two good eyes is important for judging distances. Each eye sees things from a slightly different angle. To prove this to yourself,look at an object out of one eye;Then look at the same object out of your other eye. You will find the object’s relation to the background and other things around it has changed. The difference between these two different eye views helps us to judge how far away an object is. People who have only one eye cannot judge distance as people with two eyes.

    We should take good care of our eyes______.

    A.even if we can see well
    B.only when we cannot see perfectly
    C.only when we realize how important our eyes are
    D.only when we can see well

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题考查的是细节理解。
    【关键词】take good care of;our eyes
    【主题句】第1自然段When we see well,we do not think about our eyes very often. It is only when we cannot see perfectly that we realize how important our eyes are. 当我们看东西很清楚的时候,我们不经常想到我们的眼睛。只有当我们无法完美地看到时,我们才意识到我们的眼睛多么重要。
    【解析】本题的问题是“我们应该好好保护我们的眼睛________”A选项“即使我们能看得很清楚”;B选项“当我们无法完美地看到时”;C选项“只有当我们意识到我们的眼睛有多重要时”;D选项“只有在我们能够看得出来的时候”。根据主题句分析可知,我们无论何时都要保护好眼睛,不要在看不清的时候才意识到严重性,故A选项符合题意。

  • 第17题:

    Part C

    Directions: Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET II. ( 10 points)

    Do animals have rights.'? This is how the question is usually put. It sounds like a useful, ground clearing way to start. 46) Actually, it isn't, because it assumes that there is an agreed account of human rights, which is something the world does not have.

    On one view of rights, to be sure, it necessarily follows that animals have none. 47) Some philosophers argue that rights exist only within a social contract, as part of an exchange of duties and entitlements. Therefore, animals cannot have rights. The idea of punishing a tiger that kills somebody is absurd, for exactly the same reason, so is the idea that tigers have rights. However, this is only one account, and by no means an uncontested one. It denies rights not only to animals but also to some people—4or instance to infants, the mentally incapable and future generations.

    In addition, it is unclear what force a contract can have for people who never consented to it, how do you reply to somebody who says "I don' t like this contract" ?

    The point is this: without agreement on the rights of people, arguing about the rights of animals is fruitless. 48 ) It leads the discussion to extremes at the outset: it invites you to think that animals should be treated either with the consider- ation humans extend to other humans, or with no consideration at all. This is a false choice. Better to start with another, more fundamental, question: is the way we treat animals a moral issue at all?

    Many deny it. 49) Arguing from the view that humans are different from animals in every relevant respect, extremists of this kind think that animals lie outside the area of moral choice.

    Any regard for the suffering of animals is seen as a mistake—a sentimental displacement of feeling that should properly be directed to other humans.

    This view which holds that torturing a monkey is morally equivalent to chopping wood, may seem bravely "logical". In fact it is simply shallow: the confused center is right to reject it. The most elementary form. of moral reasoning—the ethical equivalent of learning to crawl—is to weigh others' interests against one's own. This in turn requires sympathy and imagination: without there is no capacity for moral thought. To see an animal in pain is enough, for most, to engage sympathy. 50)When that happens, it is not a mistake: it is mankind' s instinct for moral reasoning in action, an instinct that should be encouraged rather than laughed at.

  • 第19题:

    根据下列内容,回答211-215题。
    A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy.Very few people have enough money of their own to buy a house,so they have to borrow money from a bank.Borrowing moneyfrom a bank to buy a house is called“take a mortgage”.The bank usually lends money or gives a me.gage for twenty—five years.Houses are so expensive that many people nowadays have to borrow as much as$50,000.In other words,they will have a$50,000 mortgage.
    How can you get a mortgage? When you find a house you like.you go to a bank.The bank will research you financial history and decide if they think you are a good risk.They will want to know what kind of job you have,what kind of salary you make and how long you have had the job.
    They will a]so want to know how much money you have.In addition.the banks will require a down payment.Depending Oil which state you live in,the bank may require as much as 30%of the price of the house as a down payment.The bank will then lend you the rest of the money to buy the house.Many people are never able to buy a house because they can not save enough money for the
    down payment.
    What does a house mean in the United States.? __________

    A.It is a dream which many people can hardly realize
    B.It is so expensive that many people can not really buy them
    C.It is the most important property that many people try to buy
    D.It doesn’t belong to people if they can not borrow morley from the bank

    答案:C
    解析:
    从第一句“A house is the most expensive thing most people will ever buy”可知,房子是人们所要购置的最重要的财产。故C项正确。A、B项都提到买房子的不可能性,与文章中的抵押贷款从而购房相悖。D项过于绝对化,并不是所有的人都必须通过银行贷款才买得起房子。

    In one day at a library, 64 people borrowed books. Twice as many people borrowed only a thriller as borrowed only a science fiction book. Three people borrowed a biography only and 11 people borrowed both science fiction and a thriller, but not a biography. The same number borrowed a biography and a thriller but no science fiction as borrowed one of each of the three types. Twenty-one people did not borrow a thriller. One more person borrowed a science fiction book and a biography book than borrowed a biography only.  How many people borrowed a thriller only?

    正确答案: 28 people borrowed a thriller only.
    解析:
