Section II Reading Comprehension

Part A

Text 1译文

加州公众企业雇员退休协会（加退协）挺身担纲投资者权利的第一捍卫者，他们会定期挑出一些全国最大公司内的糟糕经营者，列入年度的公司控管核心名单。每当加退协吭声时，帐下经营着1530亿美元的华尔街都会侧耳倾听。但是，这个全国最大的退休基金会还从没有像12月16日那样逮住这么大的一条鱼，它向美国纽约证券交易所及其属下的七个会员公司发起挑战，指控他们具有欺诈行为，宣称交易所疏忽自己的监控职守，允许七个会员公司在损害投资者利益的情况下进行证券交易。

这次行动对纽约证券交易所的新任（临时）主席John Reed来说，不蒂当头一棒。这位前花旗银行董事长兼CEO九月才加盟交易所，当时，长期担纲交易所领导工作的Richard Grasso因报酬太高而引起公愤，被迫辞职。

因为没能将投资者的代表选入新组选的董事会，也因为未能将交易所的监控职能与日常经营有效区分，Reed遭到加退协及其它机构投资者的广泛批评。加退协的诉讼表明，广大投资者的不满情绪没有消退。Harrigan说：“因为Reed不采取行动，我们的希望整个破灭了。”

诉讼指控说，七个专营会员公司滥用或过分使用交易策略并从中获益。这些目前并非非法的策略包括“penny jumping”（专营公司在两个交易单中间介入，抢得差价），“front running”（根据从交易单中获得的机密情报，抢在顾客前面交易）和“freezing”（稳住公司的交易单簿，以便公司能用自己的户头第一个交易）。

诉讼中的许多指控依据的是前不久公开的，由证券交易委员会对交易所进行的调查结果。根据诉讼，10月份的证券交易委员会的报告发现，“交易所的监控、调查程序中存在严重不足，包括对专营公司的累次犯规视而不见”。

这次诉讼突出的反映了机构投资者对交易体系的失望，该体系既便不要取消，至少需要更新。加州公司监管员Steve Westley（作为加退协的董事，参加了12月16日的记者招待会），不断呼吁纽约证券交易所停止使用专营公司来方便交易的做法，转而采用公开匹配交易双方的制度。视而不见？Westley说：“没有理由不采用全部自动化的交易。世界上每笔交易都是这么做的。证券交易所该进入21世纪了，从而拨去公众心目中的疑云：有不少侵犯投资者权益的内部交易。”

21.「答案」D

「解析」这是一道词义题。依据第一段可知答案应为D.

22.「答案」C

「解析」这是一道细节题。根据第三段第二句，确定答案为C.

23.「答案」B

「解析」这是一道是非判断题。根据第四段前两句，七家公司的手段目前并未违法，可见B项不对。

24.「答案」A

「解析」这是一道细节题，“Westley”将答案锁定在文章末段。NYSE的问题，在Westley看来，出在过于依赖专营公司开展业务，故此答案为A.

25.「答案」A

「解析」这是一道主旨题。这是一篇新闻题文章，全文讲述了加退协为了投资者的权益而将NYSE告上法庭，可见文章标题应为A（投资者权益的捍卫者）。D项Lawsuits加复数是不对的，予以排除。

Text 2译文

多功能超级药丸并不夸大其辞，而且减少高胆固醇、糖尿病及高血压对心脏的潜在危害也能挽救不少生命，对医药公司而言也是有利可图。用Pfizer公司的高血压药Norvasc和降低胆固醇的药Lipitor组合而成的药丸“具有巨大的潜力”，Shaojing Tong，一名来自Mehta Partners的分析师这么认为，他说，“一片药丸具有双重功能也极其方便”。

如果这种药推广开来，医药公司将获得巨大受益。Pfizer公司的目标是尽可能多地将合格病人转用这类组合药。Norvasc的专利将在2007年过期，但公司可将它转为超级药丸的一部分，从而避免收入方面的损失。来自Cathay Financial的分析师Sena Lund说，Pfizer到2007年通过这种组合药能赚到42亿美元，从而补偿Lipitor的销售疲软所带来的损失，Lipitor的赢利到2007年将降到5亿美元，而去年是8亿美元。

Pfizer认为，用一颗药丸治疗两个不同但却严重的心血管疾病是有益的。Pfizer双药治疗中心主任Craig Hopkinson指出，美国患有高血压和高胆固醇的病人有2700万，其中只有2％的人得到了充分的治疗。服一片药治两种病能使更多的病人得到适当的治疗，并有助于病人得到理想的救治。

Pfizer认为，医生们也会乐于接受组合药，因为它由两种很成熟的药品构成，医生们对它们很熟悉。但是，斯坦福大学医疗中心心脏科咨询部主任Dr. Stanley Rockson认为，固定剂量的组合药丸对医生们而言，是“一个有趣的十字路口”，医生们接受的训练往往要求他们“细心对待每个个别病例”。组合用药对他们的针对不同个体采用不同疗法是个挑战。但他也说，病人能更好的接受该药促使医生们去接受尝试这种药丸。

有些医生会持怀疑态度。波士顿大学医学院的药理学教授Dr. Irene Gavris则担心说，“如果你想改变组合药中一种药的剂量，你可难办了”。她说，她很愿意给那些“已用药有过一段时间的病人”使用这种组合药，他们不太可能需要改变剂量。

通常，经济决定天平的倾向。Gavris说，正在服用Lipitor和Norvasc的病人由于转用该药“能将他们的医保费用减少一半”。这很重要。例如，控制高血压可能需要三种或三种以上的药物，病人的经济负担急剧增加，如果病人也想获益——正如Pfizer和其他医药公司所宣称的那样——转用超级药丸对大家都有好处。

26.「答案」B

「解析」这是一道细节题。依据原文第二段可知，Pfizer可以通过使用组合药来避免因为Norvasc专利到期可能引起的损失。所以答案为B.

27.「答案」B

「解析」这是一道是非判断题。文章第三段讲述了超级药丸的种种好处，但并没有说可以恢复病人失去的身体功能，所以B应是答案。

28.「答案」C

「解析」本题涉及段落的写作意图。第三段讲述了病人对超级药丸的接受态度，第四段主要讲述医生们可能的接受态度，所以答案为C.A项不对，因为本段内部并没有进行对比。

29.「答案」D

「解析」这是一道涉及全文的推论题。文章探讨了医药公司、病人、医生等方面对超级药丸的反应态度，可以推论，用药的转变是由许多因素来决定的，故答案为D.

30.「答案」A

「解析」这是一道态度题，问作者对超级药丸所持的态度。根据文章开头两句及其整个文章的议论，不难看出作者对这种药的态度还是赞同性的，故答案为A.选项C意为“（勉强地）容忍接受”，不太吻合文章作者的语气，排除。

Text 3译文

五年前的寒假，Donna and Phil Satow的就读于亚利桑纳大学的20岁的儿子自缢身亡，从那以后，夫妻俩就一直想知道自己忽略了什么迹象，也向儿子的同学打听。

深刻的思索让人注意到了Ulifeline （www.ulifeline.org），大学生们可在学校登录该网址咨询问题。120多所高校使用该网址，并增添了些学校信息，130多万大学生用学生证在该网站注册。

“这是一个很不错的网站，它能提高对自杀的警惕，减少对精神疾病的歧视，鼓励人们寻求帮助，”Paul Grayson这么认为，他是纽约大学的咨询服务部主任，一年前开始使用该网站的服务。

该网站的主要部件是Self-E-Valuator，这是杜克大学医疗中心开发的一种自测软件，帮助学生判断自己是否有抑郁、自杀、厌食或药物依赖这类危险。除了帮助学生，网站还汇编了大量学生的匿名数据，以便学校了解校园内的健康状况。

网站还给学生用户提供当地医疗服务链接，一份处方药及其负效应的目录，以及“询问艾丽丝”的接入，后者是哥伦比亚大学开发的一个巨大的档案库，含有数百个对世界各地大学生匿名咨询的答复。对那些为朋友担心的学生而言，网站还有一个部分专门介绍自杀和抑郁的种种征兆。

然而很难评估这种服务的有效性，匿名在线服务甚至会起到消极作用。位于华盛顿的美国自杀学研究协会执行主任Dr. Lanny Berman就说，“这种网站咨询不能代替互动的当面咨询。”

Ulifeline首先会承认，网站咨询不能取代真正的理疗师。Ron Gibori，Ulifeline的执行主任就说，“我们的目的是帮助学生发现抑郁迹象，然后指导他们去合适的地方治疗。”

Mrs. Satow仍然关注着该网站，她称之为“知识库”，它本可以阻止她儿子Jed自杀的。她说，“如果Jed的同学知道抑郁的征兆，他们本可以发现Jed的问题的。”

31.「答案」D

「解析」这是一道写作意图题。第一段说道Satow一家的事情是为了引入文章的讨论主题Ulifeline，所以答案为D.

32.「答案」C

「解析」这是一道细节题。依据文章2、3两段，大学使用该网站的目的是鼓励学生上网咨询自己的精神抑郁等问题，所以答案为C.

33.「答案」B

「解析」这是一道细节题。依据第五段可知，Go Ask Alice是一个给学生提供健康咨询的问答库，所以答案为B.

34.「答案」A

「解析」这是一道句意题。依据文章最后两段的意思可知，网站固然可以提供咨询，但真正充分的治疗还得需要理疗师。A项为此意，是正确选项。

35.「答案」C

「解析」这是一道推论题。根据末段的意思可以推测，Mrs. Satow一定非常认可该网站，所以答案为C.

Text 4译文

“科学”和“技术”的意义，从一代到下一代都会发生深刻的变化，然而这两个术语之间的相似之处远远多于其不同之处。两者都含有思维特征，两者都涉及物质世界的因果关系，两者皆用实验性的研究方法，由此而得出的经验性结果都可重复验证。科学，至少在理论上，不太在乎结果的实用性，它更在乎普遍法则的创立，但实际上，科学和技术是密不可分的。两者之间不同程度的相互影响可见于各种行业的历史发展过程，诸如：化学、工程、物理、天文、土木、制陶以及其它行业。科学家和技术人员的研究活动的差异与下列因素有关：不同的教育要求、社会地位、方法、术语、奖励方式、机构目标及职业目标，但纵观历史，许多“纯”科学家既有理论建树也有实用创新。

的确，科学是技术创新的理论基础，以及纯理论研究对工业文明的发展是不可或缺的这两种说法都是错误的。大多数工业进步都与实验室研究无关，机械、化工、天文、冶金、水利领域的基本工具及流程早在相关理论法则发现之前就已存在。例如，早在热动力学解释了蒸汽的原理之前，蒸汽发动机业已广泛存在。

最近几年，科学和技术之间的价值分歧越来越尖锐。科学进步的反对者是一直存在的，然而，现在有很多人对技术的恐惧甚于对科学的担心。他们觉得，科学可视为是对永恒的自然法则的和平、客观的探究，但现代社会中，技术的实际应用似乎有点失控。

许多科学史家们认为，技术是发达的工业文明的必然条件，他们也认为，过去几百年的技术发展也已积累了可观的动量。技术创新的速度以几何级别在增长，远远超出了地理和政治的限定。这些技术创新改变了传统的文化体制，往往带来难以预料的社会后果。所以，技术既具有进步性也具有毁灭性。

36.「答案」C

「解析」这是一道细节题。依据原文第3句可知，科学和技术之间的相似之一便是研究方法的实验性。因此答案为C.B项中casual不等于原文中的causal，排除。

37.「答案」B

「解析」这是一道是非判断题。依据第2段首句，作者认为“科学是技术创新的理论基础，以及纯理论研究对工业文明的发展是不可或缺的这两种说法都是错误的”，可见作者不赞同的是B项的说法，故B为答案。

38.「答案」A

「解析」这是一道例证题。第2段末句中，作者提到蒸汽发动机是为了反驳“理论研究对工业文明的发展是不可或缺的”这一观点，故答案为A，A中“feed off”意为“靠…生存”。

39.「答案」D

「解析」这是一道句意题。引号句的意思在末段得到了充分的说明，“技术创新改变了传统的文化体制，往往带来难以预料的社会后果。所以，技术既具有进步性也具有毁灭性”，这就是所谓的“失去控制”，可见答案为D.

40.「答案」D

「解析」这是一道询问历史学家态度的态度题。末段中，历史学家们对技术的发展态度具有肯定和否定的两面，所以答案为D.“有保留地认可”。

Part B

「总体分析」

本篇介绍的是美国人对选举的兴趣日渐减少，并分析了相关的几个原因。第一段揭示事情本身，后几段分析原因。就本篇而言，对文章前后结构层次的把握非常重要。

41

本题考察段落内部的逻辑联系，空格的下文说“But it‘s time to stop blaming the citizens”，可见上文必然说到有人指责普通公民们不热衷于美国的政治选举。故答案为E.

42.B

本题考察考生对文章的总体结构的把握能力。既然第二段末句说“Candidates， public officials， and journalists are not giving Americans the type of campaign they deserve”，而且第三段又说到了officials，下文又将说到journalists，可以断定，本段应说“candidates”，即“leadership”，故B项为答案。

43.D

本题考察段落内部的逻辑理解，注意相应的词汇表达。既然空格前讲的是journalists对政治家的正面言论不感兴趣，弃置编辑室地板，而攻击性的言论却被直播（Attack sound bites get airtime； positive statements land on the cutting-room floor），那么可以推论，D项是最符合逻辑的展开内容，用词也密切相关（get more time on the network newscasts）。

44.G

本题涉及段落内部逻辑的把握。既然上文说“we interviewed 100，000 Americans to discover why they‘re disengaging from elections”，那么答案为G，也就很符合逻辑了。

45.F

本题同样涉及段内逻辑，既然上文说“Officials unfailingly urge citizens to do your ty and vote. Yet， these officials embrace policies that make it harder to do that”（官员们催使公民行使职责，参加选举，但另一方面又制定政策，使公民们很难参加投票选举），那么符合逻辑的答案必定是F项了。

Part C

46.「结构分析」这是一个简单句，结构不复杂。

「疑难词汇」词汇“disproportionately”的翻译不必拘泥原文，可灵活翻译为“激…”；另，“without shrinking…”部分的理解要结合上文准确翻译。

「参考译文」技术的发展和金融的自由化使得极端富裕的家庭数量激增，却没能相应地减少贫困家庭的数量。

47.「结构分析」冒号前后为并列结构。后半部分有两个“faster than…”的并列的比较状语从句。

「疑难词汇」冒号前的两个“cause”翻译要灵活处理。

「参考译文」正是这些根本原因衍生出严重后果，从而造成更糟的结果：富裕国家出口的工业产品及服务的价格增长速度远远快于贫穷国家出口的商品及服务的价格，比没有多少国际贸易的贫穷国家所生产的商品和服务的价格增长速度就更快了。

48.「结构分析」“to whom”引导的整个是定语从句，修饰前面的“young men”；定语从句中两个“to threaten…”并列，做“means”的补足语。

「疑难词汇」“means”意为“手段”。

「参考译文」结果导致许多年轻人失业愤懑，而新的信息技术则给了他们威胁社会稳定的手段，甚至可以威胁富裕国家的社会稳定。

49.「结构分析」“Why”引导的是主句，“if”引导的是从句。

「疑难词汇」主句中“subscribed to”意为“同意，赞同”；从句中“if a case can be made that…”可意译为“如果说…”，其中“case”意为“情况”：“gains”意译为“成果”。

「参考译文」如果说商品和资本市场自由化的成果往往集聚到发展中国家的高端收入阶层的手中，那发展中国家的精英阶层为何又赞同西方国家、企业及多边组织所宣扬的全球化议程呢？

50.「结构分析」分号前后为并列结构。

「疑难词汇」“fixed”根据上下文可译为“解决，改变”：“asset”为大纲词汇“资产”。

「参考译文」但是，他们没有注意到世界收入分配的差距与贫困之间的联系；他们以为，给穷人福利和机会而不必改变收入及资产分配结构，就可以解决贫困问题。

China is now witnessing a new surge of interest in going to all sorts of night schools or training classes. As is shown in the pictures, lots of people are flocking to English classes while others are rushing to attend lectures on WTO. They all look happy and eager to go to the classes even after a whole day's work.

This enthusiasm for new knowledge can be attributed to the obvious reason that the government's policy of Open-up to the World and particularly China's access to WTO. These have given a fresh impetus to China's trade and exchange with foreign countries. China's trade volume with the world has, reportedly, reached an unprecedented $500 billion and cultural exchanges with other countries are being carried on an increasingly larger scale. The new situation requires that people have to learn more about WTO rules and of course they must also acquire a solid knowledge of English. Otherwise, they may find it difficult to trade or exchange with foreign countries efficiently. They may lose the competition in the process of globalization.

Undoubtedly, China's open policy and the globalization of the world are both irreversible and more and more Chinese will find it necessary to acquire new knowledge and skills. Therefore, more and more people will be going to various training classes or lectures in the years to come.

呵呵，不知道是不是？～～～

The only way to travel is on foot

The past ages of man have all been carefully labeled by anthropologists. Descriptions like ‘ Palaeolithic Man’, ‘Neolithic Man’, etc., neatly sum up whole periods. When the time comes for anthropologists to turn their attention to the twentieth century, they will surely choose the label ‘Legless Man’. Histories of the time will go something like this: ‘in the twentieth century, people forgot how to use their legs. Men and women moved about in cars, buses and trains from a very early age. There were lifts and escalators in all large buildings to prevent people from walking. This situation was forced upon earth dwellers of that time because of miles each day. But the surprising thing is that they didn’t use their legs even when they went on holiday. They built cable railways, ski-lifts and roads to the top of every huge mountain. All the beauty spots on earth were marred by the presence of large car parks.

The future history books might also record that we were deprived of the use of our eyes. In our hurry to get from one place to another, we failed to see anything on the way. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world - or even less if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way. When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the countryside constantly smears the windows. Car drivers, in particular, are forever obsessed with the urge to go on and on: they never want to stop. Is it the lure of the great motorways, or what? And as for sea travel, it hardly deserves mention. It is perfectly summed up in the words of the old song: ‘I joined the navy to see the world, and what did I see? I saw the sea.’ The typical twentieth-century traveler is the man who always says ‘I’ve been there. ’ You mention the remotest, most evocative place-names in the world like El Dorado, Kabul, Irkutsk and someone is bound to say ‘I’ve been there’ - meaning, ‘I drove through it at 100 miles an hour on the way to somewhere else. ’

When you travel at high speeds, the present means nothing: you live mainly in the future because you spend most of your time looking forward to arriving at some other place. But actual arrival, when it is achieved, is meaningless. You want to move on again. By traveling like this, you suspend all experience; the present ceases to be a reality: you might just as well be dead. The traveler on foot, on the other hand, lives constantly in the present. For him traveling and arriving are one and the same thing: he arrives somewhere with every step he makes. He experiences the present moment with his eyes, his ears and the whole of his body. At the end of his journey he feels a delicious physical weariness. He knows that sound. Satisfying sleep will be his: the just reward of all true travellers.

难句译注与答案详解

The only way to travel is on foot 旅游的唯一方法是走路

难句译注

1. Air travel gives you a bird’s-eye view of the world – or even if the wing of the aircraft happens to get in your way.

【参考译文】飞机旅行，你只可俯视世界――如果机翼碰巧挡住了你的视线，就看得更少了。

2.When you travel by car or train a blurred image of the country-side constantly smears the windows.

【参考译文】如果乘车或火车旅行，郊外模糊朦胧的景象不断地掠过窗口。

写作方法与文章大意

文章以因果写作方法，写出了由于种种现代化交通设施、人们不需用脚走路，甚至也不需要用眼看景，出门就坐汽车、公交车、地铁、飞机……，车、机速度飞快，外边的景物难以看清，最终导致人们忘记用脚、用眼成为“无脚之人”。一切都经历不到。作者建议最佳的旅游方法是徒步――经历现实。

答案详解

1.A 人们忘了用脚。答案在第一段：人类学家把以往年代的人们分别标上旧石器时代、新石器时代人，等等。干脆利落地总结了一个时期。当他们转向20世纪，他们肯定会标上“无脚的人”。因为在20世纪，人们忘了如何用脚走路。男人女人早年外出就坐车、公共汽车、火车。大楼里由电梯、自动扶梯，不需要人们走路。即使度假期间，他们也不用脚。他们筑有缆车道、滑雪载车和路直通山顶。所有的风景旅游区都有大型的汽车停车场。

B 人们喜欢汽车、公交车、火车等。

C 电梯、自动扶梯制止人们走路。

D 有许多交通运输工具。

2.A 人们的注意力在未来。见最后一段第一句话：当你高速旅行，现在等于零，你主要生活在未来，因为你大部分时间盯在前面到达的某个地方。真到了，又没有意义了，你还要再向前进。

B 是一种欢乐。

C 满足司机强烈的.渴望。第二段中提及死机醉心于开车、不停车但不是快速前进着眼于未来。

D 生活的需要。这一条在第一段中提及这种情况是因为他们那异常的生活方法强加给时代的居民。这是指不用脚走路，而用一切代步器――交通运输工具，不是开快车。

3.C 人们在旅行途中什么都见不到。答案在第二段，由一地转向另一地，路上你什么都没有见到。乘飞机你只能俯视世界，火车，汽车，只见外界朦胧景象掠过窗子。海上旅游，只见到海。“我到过那里”此话含义就是“我以一小时一百英里在去某某地方时经过那里”。正因为如此，作者指出将来的历史书上会记录下：我们被剥夺了眼睛的应用。

A 人们不愿用眼睛。

B 在高速旅行中，眼睛没有用了。

D 旅行中，人们想睡觉。

4.D 旅行的最佳方式是走路。文章第一段、第二段分别讲述了旅行可不用脚、不用眼等情况。第三段，在讲述了人们只知向前向前，一切经历都停滞，现实不再是现实，还不如死的好。而用脚走路的旅行者总是生活再现实，对他来说旅行和到达是一回事，他一步一步走到某地，他用眼睛、耳朵，以至整个身体去体验现在时刻、旅行终点，他感到全身舒坦愉悦的疲劳，美美享受满足的酣睡;一切真正旅行者的真实报偿。这一段就是作者写文章的目的――走路是旅行的最佳方式。

A 脚变得软弱无力。

B 现代交通工具把世界变小。

C 没有必要用眼睛。

5.C 从高出向下看的景致：俯视。

A 用鸟的眼睛看景点。

B 鸟在看美景。

D 风景点。

第一篇：

Merchant and passenger ships are generally required to have a life preserver for every person aboard and in many cases, a certain percentage of smaller sizes for children. According to United States requirements, life preservers must design, reversible capable of being quickly adjusted to fit the uninitiated indivial, and must be so designed as to support the wearer in the water in an upright or slightly backward position.

Sufficient buoyancy(浮力) to support the wearer should be retained by the life preserver after 48 hours in the water, and it should be reliable even after long period of storage. Thus it should be made of materials resistant to sunlight, gasoline, and oils, and it should be not easily set on fire.?The position in which the life preserver will support a person who jumps or falls into the water is most important, as is its tendency to turn the wearer in the water from a face-down position to an upright or slightly backward position, with his face clear of the water, even when the wearer is exhausted or unconscious.

The method of adjustment to the body should be simple, and self-evident to uninitiated persons even in the dark under the confused conditions, which follow a disaster. Thus, the life be reversible that it is nearly impossible to get it on wrong. Catches, straps, and ties should be kept to a minimum. In addition, the life preserver must be adjustable to the wide variety of shapes and sizes of wearers, since this greatly affects the position of floating and the self-righting qualities. A suitable life also be comfortable to wear at all times, in and out of the water, not so heavy as to encourage to take it off on shipboard while the ship is in danger, nor so burdensome that it hinders a person in the water while trying to swim.

1. The passage is mainly about____.

A) the uses of life preservers

B) the design of life preservers

C) the materials for life preservers

D) the buoyancy of life preservers

2. According to the passage, a life be first of all ____.

A) adjustable B) comfortable C) self-evident D) self-righting

3. United States Coast Guard does NOT require the life preserver to be made ____.

A) with as few strings as possible

B) capable of being worn on both sides

C) according to each wearer's size

D) comfortable and light to wear

4. By “the uninitiated indivial” (Para. 1, Line. 4) the author refers to the person ____.

A) who has not been instructed how to use a life preserver

B) who has a little experience in using a life preserver

C) who uses a life preserver without permission

D) who becomes nervous before a disaster

5. What would happen if a person were supported by the life preserver in a wrong position?

A) The waves would move him backwards.

B) The water would choke him.

C) He would immediately sink to the bottom.

D) He would be exhausted or unconscious.

第二篇：

The table before which we sit may be, as the scientist maintains, composed of dancing atoms, but it does not reveal itself to us as anything of the kind, and it is not with dancing atoms but a solid and motionless object that we live. So remote is this “real” table——and most of the other “realities” with which science deals——that it cannot be discussed in terms which have any human value, and though it may receive our purely intellectual credence it cannot be woven into the pattern of life as it is led, in contradistinction to life as we attempt it. Vibrations in the ether(以太) are so totally unlike the color, purple that the gulf between them cannot be bridged, and they are, to all intents and purposes，not one but two separate things of which the second and less “real” must be the most significant for us. And just as the sensation which has led us to attribute all objective reality to a non-existent thing which we called “purple”is more important for human life than the conception of vibrations of a certain frequency; so too the belief in God; however ill founded, has been more important in the life of man than the germ theory of true the latter may be.

We may, if we like, speak of consequence, as certain mystics love to do, of the different levels or orders of truth. We may adopt what is essentially a Platonistic (布拉图式的) trick of thought and insist upon postulating the existence of external realities which correspond to the needs and modes of human feeling and which, so we may insist, have their being in some part of the universe unreachable by science. But to do so is to make an unwarrantable assumption and to be guilty of the metaphysical fallacy of failing to distinguish between a truth of feeling and that other sort of truth which is described as “truth of correspondence” and it is better perhaps, at least for those of us who have grown up in thought, to steer clear of such confusions and to rest content with the admission that, though the universe with which science deals is the real universe, yet we do not and cannot have any but fleeting and imperfect contacts with it; that the most important part of our lives-our sensations, emotions, desires and aspirations-take place in a universe of illusions which science can attenuate or destroy, but which it is powerless to enrich.

1. The author suggests that in order to bridge the puzzling difference between scientific truth and the world of illusion, the reader should____.

A) try to rid himself of his world of illusion

B) accept his words as being one of illusion

C) apply the scientific method

D) learn to acknowledge both

2. Judging from the ideas and tone of the selection, one may reasonably guess that the author is ____.

A) a humanist B) a pantheist C) a nuclear physicist D) a doctor of medicine

3. According to this passage, a scientist would conceive of a “table” as being ____.

A) a solid motionless object

B) certain characteristic vibrations in “ether”

C) a form fixed in space and time

D) a mass of atoms in motion

4. The topic of this selection is____.

A) the distortion of reality by science

B) the confusion caused by emotions

C) Platonic and contemporary views of truth

D) the place of scientific truth in our lives

5. By “objective reality” (Last line, Para. 1) the author means____.

A) scientific reality

B) a symbolic existence

C) the viewer's experience

D) reality colored by emotion

>>>>>>答案与解析<<<<<<

第一篇：

1. B

文章主要讲述了救生衣的设计。间接题型段首主旨题。C项和D项都是对救生衣设计中设计材料的说明。A项为陷阱，指救生衣的用途，尽管开头提到，但范围不着边际。故只有B是正确选项。

2. D

根据文章，救生衣首先会自动扶正。事实细节题。本文第三段主要讨论救生衣落水位置，应设计的能“自动扶正”,或稍向后仰。B项是对材料的描述，范围太窄，而A和C不合题意，因此D是正确答案。

3. C

美国海岸巡逻队不需要救生衣根据穿戴者的尺寸生产。事实细节题。A项和B项都涉及method，其相关部分见最后一段第三句，A，B，D三项都是文章中提及的，C项与本题无关的'内容，因此应该选C。

4. A

“the uninitiated indivial”作者指的是不知道怎么使用救生衣的人。语义指代题。根据文章最后一段第一句，我们可推出“the uninitiated indivial”就是指的那些不知道怎么使用救生衣的人。故A是正确选项。

5. D

如果一个人没有正确使用救生衣，就会发生什么?细节辨别题。第三段第一句后半句中a face-down position和本题中的 in a wrong position相对应。因此选项D“他可能太累了或者是已经失去知觉”是正确答案。

第二篇：

1. B

作者暗示为了联系起科学世界和虚幻世界的不同点，把他的话当作一种假相。间接题型段尾结论题。根据第二段最后一句话，我们可推出B是正确答案。

2. A

由文章的观点及语气可推知作者是人文主义者。暗示推断题。文中第一段第一句后半句提到“...but a solid and motionless object that we live”由此我们可以推出该作者是一位人文主义者。

3. D

根据文章，科学家相信“table”就是一群运动的原子。直接题型语义指代题。根据第一段第一 句的前半句“...but it does not reveal itself to us as anything of the kind, and it is not with dancing atoms ...”我们可推出D是正确答案。

4. D

文章的主题为生活中科学真理的地位。段首主旨题。从第二段最后一句后半句“...that the most important part of our lives-our sensations, emotions, desires and aspirations-takes place in a universe of illusions which science can attenuate or destroy, but which it is powerless to enrich.”我们可以推断出本文只要讲了科学真理在现实生活中的地位。因而答案应选D。

5. A

对于作者，“objective reality”意味着科学现实。语义指代题。根据文章最后一段，我们可得知“objective reality”即科学现实的意思，因而，答案应该选A。

第二节短文理解1

阅读下面短文，从A.(Right)、B.(Wrong)、C.(Doesn’t say)三个判断中选择一个正确选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Farmers do not like crows (乌鸦) because these birds eat newly-planted seeds (种子). They are afraid that they will not have anything left in autumn if the birds eat up all the seeds.

It is hard for farmers to get close enough to kill crows. Crows have very good eyes and good hearing. They are also very careful. While some are eating the newly-planted seeds, others sit on the tallest trees around the fields. "Caw-caw-caw," cries the first crow to see farmers coming. All the other "lookout" crows join in the crying and then, in no time at all, there is not a crow to be seen. Farmers have found several ways to kill crows. But it is good that there are still crows about. These birds are our friends. They pay for the seeds they eat by killing pests(害虫). One pest, for example, can eat up several plants in a few hours. With thousands of them at work in one night, we might find ourselves without food to eat. This is why we should not try to kill off the crow.

56. According to the writer, crows only bring troubles to farmers.

A. Right

B. Wrong

C. Doesn't say

57. It is not easy for farmers to kill crows.

A. Right

B. Wrong

C. Doesn't say

58. Farmers can get paid by killing pests.

A. Right

B. Wrong

C. Doesn't say

59. Up to now, no ways have been found to kill crows.

A. Right

B. Wrong

C. Doesn't say

60. Crows eat seeds and pests at night.

A. Right

B. Wrong

C. Doesn't say

第二节短文理解l

农民不喜欢乌鸦，因为这些鸟会吃掉新种下的种子。他们担心如果乌鸦吃光了所有的种子，到秋天他们将一无所获。农民们很难接近乌鸦到足够杀死它们的距离。乌鸦有非常好的视力和听力并且非常谨慎小心。当一部分乌鸦在吃新种下的种子时，其他的乌鸦就蹲在田地周围最高的树上。只要一看到农民来了，乌鸦就会“呱呱呱”地叫起来。只要第一个叫了，其他望风的乌鸦也会一起叫起来，马上田地里就一只乌鸦也没有了。

农民们找到了一些杀死乌鸦的方法。但是有乌鸦存在还是有好处的。这些鸟儿是我们的朋友。它们会通过吃掉害虫来弥补吃下的种子。比如，一只害虫可以在几个小时内就吃光几株植物，那么上千只害虫一晚上吃下来，我们就没东西可吃了。这就是为什么我们不应该试图杀光乌鸦的原因。

56.B【精析】句意：根据本文作者，乌鸦只会给农民带来麻烦。是非题。从文章第三段第二句“But it is good that there are still CROWS about.”可以推断出，本题的判断是与原文不符。故选B。

57.A【精析】句意：农民们要杀死乌鸦并不容易。推断题。从文章第二段前三句“It is hard for farmers to get close enough to kill crows.Crows have very good eyes and good hearing.They are alsovery careful.”可以推断出本题是正确的。故选A。

58.C【精析】句意：农民们杀死害虫会获得报酬。是非题。文章第三段只是说乌鸦会通过杀死害虫来回报给农民它们吃掉的种子，但是没有说农民杀死害虫会获得报酬。题干说法文中并未提及，故选C。

59.B【精析】句意：直到现在，人们还没有找到杀死乌鸦的方法。是非题。文章第三段第一句“Farmers have found several ways to killcrows.”可以推断出，本题的判断与原文不符。故选B。

60.C【精析】句意：乌鸦晚上吃种子和害虫。推断题。从文章第一段和第三段我们知道乌鸦会吃种子和害虫，但是并没有指明是在晚上。故选C。

第三节短文理解2

阅读下列短文，从A.、B.、C.三个选项中选择一个正确答案，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。

Mara was going to stay with her friend Fanny for three days. A week before her trip, she called Fanny to tell her when the train would arrive. Fanny asked Mara to wait for her at the west entrance ( 入口 ) of the railway station.

第三节短文理解2

玛拉要去她的.朋友范妮家住三天。旅行前一周，她打电话告诉了范妮她的火车几点到站。范妮让她在火车站的西进站口等她。火车提前到站。玛拉对这个火车站不熟，所以她没有去西进站口而是去了北进站l：2等范妮。范妮从服务台得知火车已经到站了。她在西进站口附近找了一圈都找不到玛拉。她开始以为玛拉一定是错过了这趟火车。玛拉在北进站口等着，但没有看到范妮。她觉得范妮应该不会来接她了。于是她穿过马路，在对面的公交车站问了到范妮家所在的Market路的公交车。你可以想象范妮到家发现玛拉已经在和她母亲聊天时会有多惊讶。

61.B【精析】句意：玛拉是什么时候告诉范妮她乘坐的火车的?细节题。从文章第一段第二句“A week before her trip，she called Fan—ny to tell her when the train would arrive.”可以得出，玛拉是在旅行之前一周告诉范妮火车何时到达的。故选B。

62.B【精析】句意：为什么玛拉去了北进站口而不是西进站口?细节题。从文章第二段第二句“Mara didIl’t know the station verywell…”可以看出，玛拉是由于不了解火车站而走错的，故选B。

63.A【精析】句意：玛拉没有在火车站等范妮是因为——。细节题。从文章第四段第二句“She decided that Fanny was notcoming to meet her after all.”可以看出，玛拉没有在火车站等范妮是因为她觉得范妮不会来接她了，故选A。

65.A【精析】句意：范妮是在哪里和玛拉见面的?的推断题。从文章最后一段“You can imagine how surprised Fanny was when she ar-rived home and found Mara already talking to her mother.”可以看出，范妮是回家发现玛拉已经到了她家后两人才见面的。故选A。
