第9题：
问答题This is the world out of which grows the hope, for the first time in history, of a society where there will be freedom from want and freedom from fear. Our very anxiety is born of our knowledge of what is now possible for each and for all. The number of people who consult psychiatrists today is not, as is sometimes felt, a symptom of increasing mental ill health, but rather the precursor of a world in which the hope of genuine mental health will be open to everyone, a world in which no individual feels that he needs be hopelessly broken-hearted, a failure, a menace to others or a traitor to himself. But if our anxieties are actually signs of hope, why is there such a voice of discontent abroad in the land? I think this comes perhaps because our anxiety exists with accompanying recognition of the tragedy which will always be inherent in human life, however well we build our world. We may banish hunger, violence and secret police, we cannot—as we have tried to do—banish death itself.正确答案：
有史以来第一次,这个世界有望成为一个没有贫困、没有恐惧的社会。由于每个人,所有的人都知道自己的命运,我们的焦虑也就由此产生。今天这么多的人去找精神病医生咨询,并不像人们常常感到的那样说明了越来越多的人患精神病,而只是预示着这样一个世界的到来:在那里,真正精神健康的希望之门将对每个人开放。他不必因为自己失败了,给他人造成威胁了,或背叛了自己的信仰而伤心欲绝,感到无可救药了。但是如果我们的焦虑是希望的象征,为什么到处还听到这样一种不满的声音呢?我认为这可能是我们焦虑的同时没有认识到这一点,即无论我们把这个世界建设得如何好,人类生活始终摆脱不了自身的悲剧。我们可以消灭饥饿,消灭暴力,消灭秘密警察,但我们无法,虽然一直在努力,使人不死。解析：
【翻译要点】
本题值得注意的是第三句...a world in which no individual feels that he needs be hopelessly broken-hearted, a failure, a menace to others or a traitor to himself中的同位语结构。在翻译中，若分析不够，很容易造成误译。显然a failure, a menace to others or a traitor to himself应是he的同位语，进一步说明he的。一般说来，作为同位关系的两个词语应放在一起的，但由于修饰关系，也有分开的。 -

单选题Which of the following can best reflect the trend of globalization?AThe value of cross-border world trade.
BThe globalised markets for standardized products.
CThe ratio of the value of cross-border world trade to that of global GDP.
DThe sales volume of identical goods and services around the world.
正确答案： A解析：
推断题由题干关键词reflect和globalisation可定位到第一段最后一句话：最能反映全球化进程的数字是跨境贸易的总额占整个GDP总值的百分比，即为C项，同时可排除选项A（跨境贸易总额）。第二段虽然提到Theodore Levitt预测到一个产品高度标准化的全球性市场，但该段只是为了说明全球化市场的起源，并不能反映市场全球化的趋势，故排除B项。文章第一句虽然也提到相同的产品和服务在全球范围内进行售卖，但这是市场全球化的现象，并非其衡量标准，故排除D项。综上所述，本题答案为C项。 -
第11题：
问答题One of the questions coming into focus as we face growing scarcity of resources in the world is how to divide limited resources among countries. In the international development (1) com____, the coronal wisdom has been that the billion people living in poor countries could never expect to (2) r____ the standard of living that most of the people in North America enjoy, simply because the world does not contain enough iron ore, protein, petroleum, and so on. At the same time, we in the United States have continued to pursue super-affluence as though there were no limits (3)____ how much we could consume. We (4) m____ only 6 percent of the world’s people; yet we consume one third of the world’s resources. As long as the resources we consumed each year came primarily from (5) w____ our own boundaries, this was largely an internal matter. But as our resources come more and more from the outside world, we will no longer be able to think in (6)____ of “our” resources and “their” resources, but only of (7) c____ resources. As Americans consume such a(n) (8)____(proportion) share of the world’s resources, we have to question whether or not we can continue our pursuit of super-affluence in a world of (9)____(scarce). We are now reaching the point at which we must carefully examine the presumed link between our level of well-being and the level of material goods consumed. If you have only one crust of bread and get another crust of bread, your well-being is greatly enhanced. But if you have a loaf of bread, then an additional crust of bread doesn’t make (10) d____. In the eyes of most of the world today, Americans have their loaf of bread and are asking for still more. The prospect of a scarcity of, and competition in, the world’s resources requires that we re-examine the way in which we relate to the rest of the world.正确答案： 1.community community社会整体,大众。这里指由各个国家共同构成却又彼此独立的有机整体。
2.reach reach the standard of living达到生活标准。
3.on limit后能接of,to,on/upon等介词,意思不相同。limit后接on,指对…施加限制,如:place a limit on the number of visitors限制参观的人数。limit后接of指…的限制,如:reach the limit of one’s patience达到了忍无可忍的地步。
4.make make构成。此句译为:我们只占世界人口的6%,但我们消费的资源却占世界三分之一。
5.within 该句译为:既然我们过去每年消耗的资源主要来自国内,这个问题基本上就只属于本国内部事务。与后一句的from the outside world形成对比,故填within。
6.terms in terms of根据,按照,用…的话,在…方面。
7.common common共有的,强调每个成员都有份,如:common interests共同利益。for the common good为公共利益。
8.disproportionate 上文谈到美国人口仅占世界6%,但消耗的资源却占三分之一,这是与人口不成比例的,故填disproportionate。
9.scarcity 文章主题句说:正当我们面临着世界资源匮乏之际,一个焦点问题就是国家间如何分配有限的资源。与主题句中的scarcity对应。
10.difference 此句可译为:如果你只有一块干面包,再得到一块,那你的生活就会大大改善,但如果你已有一整条面包,再多得一块,并没多少区别。解析： 暂无解析 -

BHalf of the world’s water resources have been seriously polluted.
CHumanity has not placed sufficient value on water resources.
DOnly half of the world’s water can be used.
正确答案： B解析：
细节题。文章第一段作者说如果找们现在能比过去更加重视水的话，世界未必就会陷入缺水的困境（即使人口增一倍）。下文阐述避免将来世界缺水的对策和方法，从上文叙述说明水的潜在危机不是人口增加也不是污染严重造成的。更不是用得多，才用了不到一半。根本原因是过去我们没有引起足够的重视，如能像重视石油那样重视水就不会发生水危机，因此C为答案。 -

Humans are naturally drawn to other life forms and the worlds outside of our own。We take delight in the existence of creatures and even whole societies Beyond our everyday lives.
This sense of wonder is universal. Look at the efforts that scientists（幻想）literature or movies like the lord of the rings. This sense of wonder draws us to each other，to the world around us ,and to the world of make-believe.but have we gone so far in creating worlds of fantasy that we are missing the pleasure of other worlds that already exist all around us?
Human beings，as biologists have suggested，possess an inborn desire to connect with and understand other life forms，However, people，especially in big eities，often lead rather isolated lives，In a study of British schoolchildren，it was found that children by age eight were much more familiar with characters from television shows and video games than common wildlife.without modem technology，a small Pond could be an amazing world filled with strange and beautiful plants，insects，birds，and animals 。when we lack meaning（交互）with the world around us,and somethings even with our families and friends，we seek to understand and communicate with things that exist only in our imaginations or on a computer screen。
The world of make-believe is not necessarily bad,but when the world of fantasy becomes the only outlet（出路）for our sense of wonder，then we are really missing something，we are missing a connection with the living world. Other wonderful wonderful worlds exist all around us.but even more interesting is that if we look closely enough，we can see that these worlds,in a broad sense,are really part of our own.

第21题：
问答题Practice 7 While there are a few different conceptualizations of globalization, researchers seem to be in agreement that there are at least three dimensions of globalization: economic, political and cultural. The economic aspects of globalization stem from the spread of the capitalist world economy and the resulting expansion of goods and services. The need for cheap raw materials, cheap labor and new markets saw the expansion of the capitalist world economy from one that was primarily Eurocentric to one that encompassed the entire world. This process was achieved by various means and often involved overcoming political resistances in the new markets. The political aspects of globalization involved establishing control over markets and raw materials through either the use of direct military power or the establishment of international institutions that control such markets. The rise of the nation-state is an example of the political aspect of globalization, although it is argued that advances in telecommunications and information systems and the resulting constructions of institutions that transience territorial boundaries are making the nation-state obsolete.正确答案： 【参考译文】
尽管还有一些不同的全球化的观念,研究者似乎一致认为全球化至少有三个层面:经济的、政治的和文化的。全球化的经济层面源自资本主义世界经济的扩张以及产品和服务的扩展。对廉价原材料、劳动力和新市场的需求,使得资本主义世界从最初以欧洲为中心而扩展到了全世界。这一进程是通过多种方式完成的,并经常牵涉到克服新市场的政治障碍。全球化的政治方面主要是通过直接动用军事力量或者建立能控制新市场的国际机构,从而达到对新市场和原材料的控制。民族国家的兴起便是全球化政治层面的一个例证,尽管有人认为电信、信息系统的发展和跨越领土边界的机构的建立正在使民族国家过时。解析： 暂无解析 -

问答题Practice 5 Water is essential for life. Yet many millions of people around the world face water shortages. Many millions of children die every year from water-borne diseases. And drought regularly afflicts some of the world’s poorest countries. The world needs to respond much better. We need to increase water efficiency, especially in agriculture. We need to free women and girls from the daily chore of hauling water. We must involve leaders of countries in decision-making on water management. We need to make sanitation a priority. This is where progress is lagging most. And we must show that water resources need not be a source of conflict. Instead, they can be a catalyst for cooperation. Significant gains have been made. But a major effort is still required. Our goal is to meet the internationally agreed targets for water and sanitation by 2015, and to build the foundation for further progress in the years beyond. This is an urgent matter of human development, and human dignity. Together, we can provide safe, clean water to the entire world’s people. The world’s water resources are our lifeline for survival, and [or sustainable development in the 21st century. Together, we must manage them better.正确答案： 【参考译文】
水对生命是至关重要的,然而世界各地数以百万计的人们却面临着水源短缺的问题。每年有数百万儿童由于水传播的疾病而死亡,世界上某些最贫穷的国家经常遭受干旱的折磨。
世界需要更好地应对这一挑战。我们需要提高用水效率,特别是在农业方面;我们需要把女性从每日提水的家务中解放出来;我们必须使国家领导人参与水源管理的决策;我们需要优先考虑公共卫生,而这方面的进展尤为缓慢;我们必须指出水资源不应成为冲突之源,而应成为合作的催化剂。
我们已取得了显著进展,但仍需付出巨大努力。我们的目标是:要达到国际社会协商规定的2015年前要达到的水和卫生方面的目标,并为以后的进展奠定基础。
这是一个关乎人类发展和尊严的紧迫问题;如果齐心协力,我们可以为全世界人民提供安全、清洁的水。水资源是我们赖以生存的生命线,也是21世纪可持续发展的生命线;我们必须共同努力,更好地管理水资源。解析： 暂无解析 -
