    Why does the author dwell upon the concept of science in this article?

    正确答案: He wants to make the concept clear so that people can have the right education.
    解析:
    态度题。作者在文中给出了科学的真正定义,并对此进行了充分的论证,驳斥了很多人对于科学的含混概念。但作者的最终意图并不是要明确科学的概念,他在文中一再提到教育问题,就是不希望错误的科学概念导致教育方向的偏差,故答案为D项。选项A、B、C都不是作者的主要意图,皆可排除。

    问答题
    when a human infant is born into any community in any part of theworld it has two things in common with any infant, provided neither of them       1._______have been damaged in any way either before or during birth. Firstly, and most     2._______obviously, new born children are completely helpless. Apart from a powerfulcapacity to pay attention to their helplessness by using sound, there is nothing   3._______the new born child can do to ensure his own survival. Without care from someother human being or beings, be it mother, grandmother, or human group, achild is very unlikely to survive. This helplessness of human infants is in markedcontrast with the capacity of many new born animals to get on their feet within   4._______minutes of birth and run with the herd within a few hours. Although younganimals are certainly in risk, sometimes for weeks or even months after birth,    5._______compared with the human infant they very quickly develop the capacity to fend for them.                                    6._______  It is during this very long period in which the human infant is totallydependent on the others that it reveals the second feature which it shares with all 7._______other undamaged human infants, a capacity to learn language. For this reason,biologists now suggest that language be ‘species specific’ to the human race,    8._______that is to say, they consider the human infant to be genetic programmed in       9._______such way that it can acquire language. This suggestion implies that just       10.______as human beings are designed to see three-dimensionally and in colour, and justas they are designed to stand upright rather than to move on all fours, so theyare designed to learn and use language as part of their normal development aswell-formed human beings.

    正确答案:
    1.在any和infant中间加other 在比较两者的异同时,要从比较对象中排除该物或该人。
    2.have改为has 此处主语为neither,故谓语动词要用单数形式。
    3.pay改为draw/call/attract/elicit
    pay attention to注意。此处要表达“吸引注意”的意思。
    4.on改为to
    get to one’s feet起身,站起来。
    5.in risk改为in danger或at risk 这里表达“在危险中,受到威胁”的意思,没有in risk这种搭配。
    6.them改为themselves 这里需要的宾语和主语they都是指代上文的young animals,故要用反身代词。
    7.去掉the
    others指“其他人(物)中的一部分”,the others则指“其他所有的人(物)”。
    8.be改为is 这里suggest意为“提出,暗示”,不作“建议”讲,因此不用虚拟语气。
    9.genetic改为genetically
    genetically用来修饰programmed,“副词+过去分词”相当于一个形容词。
    10.在such和way中加入a 名词way为可数名词单数,前面要用不定冠词。

    【录音原文】
    W: What I don’t understand is why you’re so keen on the Layer-de-la-Haye house, Roger. Why on earth should we actually choose, to live out in a village, even if it is a popular village, or so the house agent’s description says, when we could get a place right in the center of Colchester? Look ... we’ve got all these house descriptions. And we’ve got time to go and see all of them. You know that I’d much prefer to be in the town and ...
    M: ... and be boxed in by a thousand other houses ... surrounded by a thousand faceless neighbors? No Julia ... let’s go for the village. After all I’m the one who has to do all the traveling. Back and forth to London every day. And I’d rather add a fifteen-minute bus ride to the train ride.
    W: That’s all very well ... all very well to take that romantic attitude. You know ... you think you can get out of everything and wriggle out of any argument. What about my preferences? You are being selfish you know.
    M: Selfish? Me?
    W: Yes you. Think of the children. Roger. It seems to me that you’re so carried away with the idea of living in the village and far from the crowd. I think your personal likes and dislikes are making you anything but practical. Alex for example ... he’ll be going to secondary school next year. And as far as I’m concerned, the nearer the school the better. Have you read the description of your beautiful village house? Where is it? Yes ... here we are ... local primary school within walking distance it says. That of course means that the nearest secondary school will be in Colchester.
    M: There are such things as school buses you know. And even if there weren’t. Alex is perfectly able ... perfectly capable of using public transport.
    W: Why at his age? ... And think of Sylvia. She’s just getting used to the idea of being in the nursery, can you imagine there being a nursery school in Layer-de-la-Have? And I must say I ... yes, I like to be free of her for pan of the day, so that I can get the shopping and the housework done ... quite apart from it being good for her.
    M: All fight ... all right. You’ve made your point. But after all these years in London I would have preferred a bit of fresh air and greenery and ... you know ... the occasional toddle round the nine-hole golf course they mention. It is nine-hole, isn’t it? Yes ... Anyway ... It’s goodbye to that ... to the “pleasant and neat gardens front and rear, apple tree and ornamental fish Pond, patio and ...”
    W: Stop talking through your hat. You’ve never been a lover of fresh air ... your overcoat’s on as soon as the first gentle touch of the first spring breeze. And as for golf ... well ... we both know you love a beer at the clubhouse rather than any outdoor sports. Why is it that you’re always insisting that you like the country life, you love getting up early, you adore a good brisk walk, and so on and so on. when in fact ...
    M: But I do like the country ... I would love getting up early ... I’d often be out there having a good brisk walk ... if only ...
    W: If only what?
    M: If only ... Well ... if only we lived somewhere that would make it all possible and worthwhile. Never mind. Colchester is good enough I suppose. There’ll be fields and trees nearby.
    W: Exactly. Now just look at this, the description of this house. I think we ought to go and see it. It’s east of the town center, so you won’t be too boxed in as you say, and shops, schools and everything else are in easy reach. We’d have the best of both worlds, you with your golf and beer ... me with my fenceless neighbors.
    M: And there’s another consideration. It costs ...,what ...? 2300 less. With that we’ll be saving for quite a nice sailing-boat.
    W: Oh no!
    M: You know Julia ... I’ve always wanted to have a little sailing-boat ... out there in the front garden. Then on Saturdays or Sundays or Bank Holidays we can hitch the trailer to the car and go to the nearest bit of river or sea. It’d do the children a world of good. I’d like them to have what I’ve never had ... while they’re still young ...
    1. What can we learn about Roger and Julia according to the conversation?
    2. Which of the following is not a disadvantage according to Julia?
    3. What does Julia indicate during the conversation?
    4. According to the conversation, which place will the speakers possibly choose to live?
    5. According to Roger, which is not the advantage of buying a sailing-boat?

    音乐保存极为有限,传播距离和传播方向也极为有限。当人类发明了乐谱后,音乐便开始脱离表演,演变成“文字”得以记录和传播。然而,人类音乐传播的真正革命性里程碑的建立者无疑是科学家们。他们创造了令人叹为观止的音乐传播手段,从最早的机械“留声机”到今天五花八门的“电子媒体”,音乐的传播变得如此便捷,如此高保真。

    正确答案:
    【参考译文】
    There was a severe limitation to the extent of music preservation, as well as to the distance and directions of music transmission. When mankind invented musical scores, music started to break away from the boundaries of being merely a performing art, and develop into a system of “written symbols” that can be recorded and spread. Undoubtedly, however, it was the scientists who should be crowned as the founders of the real revolutionary milestone of human musical communication. Scientists invented marvelous means of music transmission, from the earliest mechanical “record turntable” to today’s many kinds of “electronic media”. Music transmission has become something that is amazingly convenient, fast, and hi-fi supported!

    C

    D

    解析:
    语义理解题。由题干关键词可定位到文章第三段第一句,即该段的主题句。随后通过列举SCI、斯图尔特和家庭式殡葬公司的例子说明他们都面临着困难。由此可见,整个殡葬业的形势不容乐观。因此该段首句要表达的也正是这一层含义。由此可以推断,in rude health应该表示“情况好”之意。故答案为B项。选项C具有一定的干扰性,但该段并没有提及“盈利”的问题,故排除。

    C

    A western restaurant has best decoration and high-ranking service.

    D

    A famous restaurant provides entertainment performance to customers.


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    理解归纳题。通读文章后可知,手机提供优质的MP3功能、西餐厅的高级装潢和服务、知名餐厅提供娱乐表演项目都属于作者所说的额外加分,而不是基本要求,故选项A、C、D皆可排除。文章第二段在提到客户满意度时举了一个例子:客人们为了享受美食而宁愿忍受恶劣的服务,而好的服务则只是额外加分,不是最重要的;紧接着文章分析了任何行业都要迎合消费者基本需求的必要性。纵观四个选项,中餐厅提供最正宗的川菜即为满足了客人的基本需求,是作者可能提倡的,故答案为B项。

  • 第17题:

    问答题
    The overuse of modern technologies in recreational activities makes human beings less creative. Do you agree or disagree? Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic.

    正确答案:
    It is universally acknowledged that modern technologies are widely used in our everyday entertainment activities, providing joy and happiness for all. We enjoy kaleidoscopic TV programmes using signals received from satellites; we play music and show films on complex hi-fi stereos; and an increasing number of people surf the Internet every day for information and fun. Under these circumstances, many fear that the overuse of modern technologies in entertainment might result in the gradual loss of human creativity, as man grows to rely almost entirely on machines and high-tech inventions to work entertaining miracles. Honestly, I regard this point of view as downright wrong.
    To begin with, it is precisely man's creativity that has made all the modern technologies possible and available, which in turn leads to their creative application in entertainment. Their wide application does not necessarily mean that man is losing his creativity, but simply indicates that this creativity has all along been turned into reality and put to use.
    Secondly, rather than stunting man's imagination, the overuse of modern technologies actually enables man to be more and more creative. For instance, Dream Works, the famous American film company, has been designing and producing cartoons using computer technology. From the uni-dimensional The Prince of Egypt to the most lifelike Shrek, whatever one can imagine, it can be created by that computer, together with human intelligence and imagination.
    Thirdly, history has proved that wide application of technologies in recreational activities has not affected human creativity. As a matter of fact, human beings have extensively used modern technologies to entertain themselves since the 1950s. However, we find so far no evidence which shows that man's creativity is declining. Instead, we never fail to find new creations appearing in quick succession.
    Finally, the development of modern technologies depends on man's creativity. TV sets, CD players, computers and all sort of high-tech appliances are invented and developed by man. And his boundless imagination and endless thirst for more joy and fun will always inspire him to invent better technologies and then enjoy new varieties of entertainment.
    To sum up, the fuss about how the overuse of modern technologies might be making people lose their creativity is totally unnecessary. For man, as a ceaseless explorer, will always develop new ways of fun using new types of advanced technologies.
    解析:
    对于题目里提到的“娱乐活动中现代科技的滥用降低了人们的创造力”这一说法,作者在第一段末尾表示不认同。接下来正文段里分四点进行论证,其中援引了梦工厂的电影等例子作为论据。最后一段重申了中心论点。

    正确答案:
    1.task和can中间加which/that 这里需要一个引导出定语从句的关系代词。
    2.as改为than 根据前面的more,可知这里需要连词than引导出比较对象。
    3.with改为to
    be familiar to表示“为…所熟悉”,而be familiar with表示“了解,熟悉”。
    4.another改为other
    another“另一个”,表示单数。other作“其他的”讲,后面加复数。
    5.it’s改为its 这里是动名词的复合结构,应用its表示所有格。
    6.like改为likely
    likely“可能的”,一般用在be likely to do sth. 结构中。
    7.relating改为related
    the material和relate是逻辑动宾关系,所以要使用过去分词形式。
    8.increasingly改为increasing 副词不能修饰名词。
    9.在few前加a
    a few表示肯定,“一些”。few表示否定,“几乎没有”。

    在巴黎,名目繁多的酒会是广交朋友的好机会。在这种场合陌生人相识,如果是亚洲人,他们往往开口之前先毕恭毕敬地用双手把自己的名片呈递给对方,这好像是不可缺少的礼节。然而,法国人一般不大主动递送名片,双方见面寒喧几句,甚至海阔天空地聊一番也就各自走开,只有当双方谈话投机,希望继续交往时,才会掏出名片。二话不说先递名片反倒有些勉强。

    正确答案:
    【参考译文】
    In Paris cocktail parties and buffet receptions of various kinds are great opportunities for people to meet each other and make friends with each other. Strangers can make acquaintance with each other on such occasions. Overseas Asians would like to respectfully present others their calling cards with their hands, even before they say hello to each other. And this seems to be an indispensable courtesy on their part. By contrast, most Frenchmen are not likely to do that when they meet. They may greet each other, and sometimes even have a casual chat before they leave. Only when they find they have something in common and want to further their relationship, will they exchange their calling cards. It seems rather embarrassing for them to be presented a calling card before opening their mouth.

    正确答案: Science graduates are not favorably received by the society.
