  • 第4题:

    Does it always matter if the “real world” is not being practiced in the classroom? Why or why not?
    It is always desirable to practice language in the classroom as it is used in the real world, since students will have to use the target language in real communication outside the classroom. However, it is not always possible to do so because classroom is after all different from the outside world no matter how hard you try to simulate the real world situation. And it is not always necessary to do so. Language teaching is conducted at several stages. At the drilling stage, when the focus is on language form, the “real world” does not have to be practiced. But when the focus is on meaning and students are engaged in communication activities, the “real world” practice does matter much. It is where the students learn to use the target language for real communication, and to use it appropriately.

    What does the incoherence in Britain’s science education policy reveal?

    正确答案: Science graduates are not favorably received by the society.
    解析:
    细节题。根据题干可定位到文章第二段。该段中提到,英国很多历史悠久的大学培养出的理科毕业生失业率高达20%,高于五年前的10%。而科学部长和其他一些媒介声称,攻读理科学位的学生数量远远不够。由此可见,理科生一方面人数较少,另一方面就业率低,因此可判断理科毕业生不受社会欢迎。

  • 第15题:


    Why does the author mention Fuller s The Sea?( )

    A.To point out a dance of Fuller’s in which music did not play an important role.
    B.To explain why Fuller sometimes used music by progressive composers.
    C.To ilustrate a particular way in which Fuller developed as an artist.
    D.To ilustrate how Fuller’s interest in science was reflected in her work.

    答案:C
    解析:
    细节题。根据题干关键词The Sea定位到文章第五段的第三句。该句将The Sea作为一个作品示例,但例证的观点或主题需要根据段落上下文确定。段落第一句提到“随着专业技能方面的复杂化、成熟化,富勒在舞蹈的其他方面也得到了发展”。段落第二句举出了使用音乐的例子,第三句中The Sea作为舞蹈主题方面的例子出现,由此可见,两个例子都是为了证明富勒在舞蹈其他方面的发展,而这些发展都是富勒自己独特的尝试。C项“说明富勒发展成一个艺术家的特殊方式”与之相符。A项“在富勒的一个舞蹈中,音乐的作用不大”,B项“解释为什么富勒有时会用先进音乐家的音乐”,D项“阐述富勒对科学的兴趣如何在她的作品中反映出来”,均不正确。

  • 第23题:

    问答题
    Human beings in all times and places think about their world and wonder at their place in it. Humans are thoughtful and creative, possessed of insatiable curiosity.1) Furthermore, humans have the ability to modify the environment in which they live, thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies.Therefore, it is important to study humans in all their richness and diversity in a calm and systematic manner, with the hope that the knowledge resulting from such studies can lead humans to a more harmonious way of living with themselves and with all other life forms on this planet Earth.  “Anthropology” derives from the Greek words anthropos “human” and logos “the study of.” By its very name, anthropology encompasses the study of all humankind.Anthropology is one of the social sciences.2) Social science is that branch of intellectual enquiry which seeks to study humans and their endeavors in the same reasoned, orderly, systematic, and dispassioned manner that natural scientists use for the study of natural phenomena.  Social science disciplines include geography, economics, political science, psychology, and sociology. Each of these social sciences has a subfield or specialization which lies particularly close to anthropology.  All the social sciences focus upon the study of humanity. Anthropology is a field-study oriented discipline which makes extensive use of the comparative method in analysis.3)The emphasis on data gathered first-hand, combined with a cross-cultural perspective brought to the analysis of cultures past and present, makes this study a unique and distinctly important social science.  Anthropological analyses rest heavily upon the concept of culture. Sir Edward Tylor’s formulation of the concept of culture was one of the great intellectual achievements of 19th century science. 4) Tylor defined culture as “… that complex whole which includes belief, art, morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits acquired by man as a member of society.”This insight, so profound in its simplicity, opened up an entirely new way of perceiving and understanding human life. Implicit within Tylor’s definition is the concept that culture is learned, shared, and patterned behavior.  5) Thus, the anthropological concept of “culture,” like the concept of “set” in mathematics, is an abstract concept which makes possible immense amounts of concrete research and understanding.

    正确答案:
    (1)【答案】而且,人类还有能力改变自己的生存环境,从而是让所有其它形态的生命服从人类自己独特的思想和想象。
    【解析】这句话中包含一个小的定语从句,可以直接作为定语修饰中心词。句子主语是humans,谓语部分为have the ability to modify the environment in which they live,其中in which they live是定语从句,修饰environment。thus subjecting all other life forms to their own peculiar ideas and fancies是现在分词结构作状语。furthermore此外、而且,起到顺承上文的作用。subject …to …,使…服从于…。
    (2)【答案】社会科学是知识探索的一个分支,它像自然科学家研究自然现象那样,力图用理性的、有序的、系统的和冷静的方式研究人类及其行为。
    【解析】本句的定语从句结构比较复杂,包括两个定语从句,其中一个定语从句嵌套在另一个定语从句当中,翻译时需要进行拆分。branch的意思为“分支”。其中the same…that表示与…相同,可以译为就像…那样。seek to do…追求,争取。

    【解析】本句的主要结构是define…as…,把…定义为…。本句翻译的难点在于引用的部分,其中包括一个定语从句,翻译时可以将其拆分。在翻译修饰belief, art , morals, law, custom, and any other capabilities and habits时,要将其后的定语acquired by man as a member of society转化成汉语表达方式,即译成前置定语。 complex whole复合整体。
    (5)【答案】因此,人类学中“文化”概念就像数学中“集”的概念一样,是一个抽象概念,它使大量的具体研究和认识成为可能。
