2012年5月北京学位英语试题和答案2012年05月12日Part I Reading Comprehension (30%)Directions: There are three passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet。

Passage 1Questions I to 5 are based on the following passage:Spending 50 minutes with a cell phone close to your ear is enough to change brain cell activity in the part of the brain closest to the antenna(天线).But whether that causes any harm is not clear, scientists at the National Institute of Health said at a conference last month, adding that the study will not likely settle concerns of a link between cell phones and brain cancer.―What we showed is glucose (葡萄糖) metabolism(代谢)(a sign of brain activity)increases in the brain in people who were exposed to a cell phone in the area closest to the antenna,‖ said Dr. Nora Volkow of the NIH, whose study wa s published in the Journal of the American Medical Association. (76) The study was meant to examine how the brain reacts to electromagnetic fields caused by wireless phone signals。

The lessons will be carried into classrooms all over a city, or even an entire country.After a televised lesson has been given, the classroom teacher will take over for the all-important “follow-up” period. The stude nts will ask troublesome questions, and difficult points will be cleared up through discussion.The teacher in the classroom will have additional electronic tools. On the teacher’s desk, the traditional bright red apple will have been replaced by a multiple—control panel and magnetic tape players. The tape machines will runprerecorded lessons which pupils will follow by headphones. The lessons will be specifically geared to the students’ levels of ability. For instance, which the class as a whole studies history, each student will receive an individual history lesson, directed to his particular level of ability.Should questions arise, the students will be able to talk directly to the teacher on individual “intercoms” without disturbing the rest of the class. In this way, the teacher will be able to conduct as many as three classes at the same time.1.This article is mainly about_______.A. televisionB. electronicsC. the schools of the futureD. communication2. Closed-circuit television will probably carry lessons to_____.A.a single classroomB. one schoolC. all the classrooms in the worldD. all the classrooms in a city or country3.

Electronic tools will enable the teacher to5. Electronic tools will enable the teacher to_____.A. teach more than one class at the same timeB. retireC. teach only a small number of pupilsD. rely on TV stations onlyPassage Two：Industrial Psychology is the application of various psychological techniques to the selection and training of industrial workers and to the promotion of efficient working conditions and techniques, as well as individual job satisfaction.The selection of workers for particular jobs is essentially a problem of discoveringthe special aptitudes and personality characteristics needed for the job and of devising tests to determine whether candidates have such aptitudes and characteristics. The development of tests of this kind has long been a field of psychological research.Once the worker is on the job and has been trained, the fundamental aim of the industrial psychologist is to find ways in which a particular job can best be accomplished with a minimum of effort and a maximum of individual satisfaction. The psychologist's function, therefore, differs from that of the so-called efficiency expert, who places primary emphasis on increased production. Psychological techniques used to lessen the effort involved in a given job include a detailed study of the motions required to do the job, the equipment used, and the conditions under which the job is performed. After making such a study, the industrial psychologist often determines that the job in question may be accomplished with less effort by changing the routine motions of the work itself, changing or moving the tools, improving the working conditions, or a combination of several of these methods.Industrial psychologists have also studied the effects of fatigue on workers to determine the length of working time that yields the greatest productivity. In some cases such studies have proven that total production on particular jobs could be increased by reducing the number of working hours or by increasing the number of rest periods, or "breaks," during the day. Industrial psychologists may also suggest less direct requirements for general improvement of job performance, such as establishing a better line of communication between employees and management.6. From the first sentence of passage, we learn that the primary objective of industrial psychology is to study ______.A. working efficiency that leads to the highest outputB. the working skills and the working environmentC. the techniques leading to the highest productivityD. the utilization of workers to get the greatest profit7. A test in industrial psychology is used to find out ______.A. a worker’s achievementsB. a worker's potential for a certain jobC. a worker's psychological problemD.a worker's motivation for a certain job8. The industrial psychologist’s function differs from that of the efficiency experts in that the former______.A. places great emphasis on maximum productionB. never cares about the increase of productionC. is mainly concerned with workers' satisfactionD. worries a lot about those workers in poor working conditions9. In an industrial psychologist's mind, all of the following is important EXCEPT______.A. the steps in which work is doneB. the state of mind of a worker when workingC. the effect of working environment on a workerD. the value of the product a worker is making10. It is certain that ______.A. Two breaks in a day lead to higher productivity than oneB. working less hours can yield the highest efficiencyC. communication is increasing between the employers and employeesD. changing tools will help increase the productionPassage Three：The Welsh language has always been the ultimate marker of Welsh identity, but a generation ago it looked as if Welsh would go the way of Manx. once widely spoken on the isle of Man but now extinct. Government financing and central planning, however, have helped reverse the decline of Welsh. Road signs and official public documents are written in both Welsh and English, and schoolchildren are required to learn both languages. Welsh is now one of the most successful of Europe’s regional languages, spoken by more than a half-million of the country’s three million people.The revival of the language, particularly among young people, is part of a resurgence of national identity sweeping through this small, proud nation. Last month Wales marked the second anniversary of the opening of the National Assembly, the first parliament to be convened here since 1404. The idea behind devolution was to restore the balance within the union of nations making up the United Kingdom. With most of the people and wealth, England has always had bragging rights. The partial transfer of legislative powers from Westminster, implemented by Tony Blair, was designed to give the other members of the club- Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales-a bigger say and to counter centrifugal forces that seemed to threaten the very idea of the union.The Welsh showed little enthusiasm for devolution. Whereas the Scots voted overwhelmingly for a parliament, the vote for a Welsh assembly scraped through by less than one percent on a turnout of less than 25 percent. Its powers were proportionately limited. The Assembly can decide how money from Westminster or the European Union is spent. It cannot, unlike its counterpart in Edinburgh, enact laws. But now that it is here, the Welsh are growing to like their Assembly. Many people would like it to have more powers. Its importance as figurehead will grow with the opening in 2003, of a new debating chamber, one of many new buildings that are transforming Cardiff from a decaying seaport into a Baltimore-style waterfront city. Meanwhile a grant of nearly two million dollars from the European Union will tackle poverty. Wales is one of the poorest regions in Western Europe- only Spain, Portugal, and Greece have a lower standard of living.Newspapers and magazines are filled with stories about great Welsh men and women, boosting self-esteem. To familiar faces such as Dylan Thomas and Richard Burton have been added new icons such as Catherine Zeta-Jones, the movie star, and Bryn Terfel, the opera singer. Indigenous foods like salt marsh lamb are in vogue. And Wales now boasts a national airlin e. Awyr Cymru. Cymru, which means “land of compatriots,” is the Welsh name for Wales. The red dragon, the nation’s symbol since the time of King Arthur, is everywhere- on T-shirts, rugby jerseys and even cell phone covers.“Until very recent times most Wel sh people had this feeling of being second-class citizens,” said Dyfan Jones, an 18-year-old student. It was a warm summer night, and I was sitting on the grass with a group of young people in Llanelli, an industrial town in the south, outside the rock mus ic venue of the National Eisteddfod, Wales’s annual cultural festival. The disused factory in front of us echoed to the sounds of new Welsh bands.“There was almost a genetic tendency for lack of confidence,” Dyfan continued. Equally comfortable in his Welshness as in his membership in the English-speaking, global youth culture and the new federal Europe, Dyfan, like the rest of his generation, is growing up with a sense of possibility unimaginable ten years ago. “We used to think. We can’t do anything, we’re only Welsh. Now I think that’s changing.”11. According to the passage, devolution was mainly meant toA. maintain the present status among the nations.B. reduce legislative powers of England.C. create a better state of equality among the nations.D. grant more say to all the nations in the union.12. The word “centrifugal” in the second paragraph meansA. separatist.B. conventional.C. feudal.D. political13. Wales is different from Scotland in all the following aspects EXCEPTA. people’s desire for devolution.B. locals’ turnout for the voting.C. powers of the legislative body.D. status of the national language.14. Which of the following is NOT cited as an example of the resurgence of Welsh national identityA. Welsh has witnessed a revival as a national language.B. Poverty-relief funds have come from the European Union.√C. A Welsh national airline is currently in operation.D. The national symbol has become a familiar sight.15. According to Dyfan Jones what has changed isA. people’s mentality.B. pop culture.C. town’s appearance.D. possibilities for the people.Passage Four：What is true? What is right? What is beautiful? Science considers what is true, starting out with almost unimaginable ideas (The earth is moving! The future is unpredictable!). The job is to understand these ideas and fit them into a broad and logical picture of the universe. Politics considers what is right. This requires broad understanding and eventual consensus of points of view that often appear incompatible. Art is the development of what is beautiful---whether through words, a musical note, or architecture.Truth, morality, beauty. It has been humanity’s persistent hope that these three ideas should be consistent with each other. Yet successful activities in science, politics, and art diverge greatly, and I believe the three activities can be pursued initially without regard to each other, or without reconciling the possible conflicts that mayarise. Today, there is perceived to be a strong contradiction between the results of science and the requirements of morality; for instance, the application of science has led to the development of nuclear weapons, while international morality seems to demand that such results never be applied ——and that research leading to them should be stopped. I hold a position radically different from the general point of view, believing that contradiction and uncertainty should be enhanced.Niel Bohr loved contradiction. He would not tolerate the idea that quantum mechanics might some day supersede classical physics. For Bohr, classical physics had to remain in permanent contradiction to quantum mechanics and the tension between them retained as a part of science. In the same way, the impacts of science, politics, and art must remain independent. We must learn to live with contradictions, because they lead to deeper and more effective understanding. The same applies to uncertainty.According to Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle, only probabilistic predictions can be made about the future. Furthermore, small events can have important consequences. An everyday example is weather forecasting. It is fairly successful for predictions up to 5 days ahead, but if you double that period the predictions are no longer accurate. It is not clear whether long-range predictions are forever excluded, but the example does illustrate that small causes can have significant effects.This situation has an obvious analogy in free will. In a completely deterministic world, what we know as free will in humans is reduced to a mere illusion. I may not know that my actions are predetermined in some complicated configuration of my molecules, and that my decisions are nothing more than the realization of what has been inherent in the configuration of electrons. According to quantum mechanics, we cannot exclude the possibility that free will is a part of the process by which the future is created. We can think about the creation of the world as incomplete and human beings, indeed all living beings, as making choices left open to probability.One may argue that this notion is fantastic. Indeed, Einstein firmly believed in causality, and rejected the relevant part of quantum mechanics. (His famous statement is that, while God can rule the world by any set of laws, “God does not p lay dice with the universe.”)Attempts have been made to add laws to quantum mechanics to eliminate uncertainty. Such attempts have not only been unsuccessful, they have not even appeared to lead to any interesting results.Questions:16.According to the author, what do science, politics and art each try to explain?17.What is the strong contradiction mentioned in the second paragraph?18.What is the author’s attitude toward contradiction?19.How would the author face uncertainty?20.What is the main idea of the passage?Passage Five：I am afraid to sleep. I have been afraid to sleep for the last few weeks. I am so tired that, finally, I do sleep, but only for a few minutes. It is not a bad dream that wakes me ; it is the reality I took with me into sleep . I try to think of something else. Immediately the woman in the marketplace comes into my mind. I was on my way to dinner last night when I saw her . She was selling skirts. She moved with the same ease and loveliness I often saw in the women of Laos. Her long black hair was as shiny as the black silk of the skirts she was selling. In her hair, she wore three silk ribbons, blue, green, and white. They reminded me of my childhood and how my girlfriends and I used to spend hours braiding ribbons into our hair. I don’t know the word for “ribbons”, so I put my hand to my own hair and , with three fingers against my head , I looked at her ribbons and said “Beautiful.” She lowered her eyes and said nothing. I wasn’t sure if she understood me (I don’t speak Laotian v ery well).I looked back down at the skirts. They had designs on them: squares and triangles and circles of pink and green silk. They were very pretty. I decided to buy one of those skirts, and I began to bargain with her over the price. It is the custom to bargain in Asia. In Laos bargaining is done in soft voices and easy moves with the sort of quiet peacefulness.She smiled, more with her eyes than with her lips. She was pleased by the few words I was able to say in her language, although they were mostly numbers, and she saw that I understood something about the soft playfulness of bargaining. We shook our heads in disagreement over the price; then, immediately, we made another offer and then another shake of the head. She was so pleased that unexpectedly, she accepted the last offer I made. But it was too soon. The price was too low. She was being too generous and wouldn’t make enough money. I moved quickly and picked up two more skirts and paid for all three at the price set; that way I was able to pay her three times as much before she had a chance to lower the price for the larger purchase. She smiled openly then, and, for the first time in months, my spirit lifted. I almost felt happy.The feeling stayed with me while she wrapped the skirts in a newspaper and handed them to me. When I left, though, the feeling left, too. It was as though itstayed behind in marketplace. I left tears in my throat. I wanted to cry. I didn’t , of course.I have learned to defend myself against what is hard; without knowing it, I have also learned to defend myself against what is soft and what should be easy.I get up, light a candle and want to look at the skirts. They are still in the newspaper that the woman wrapped them in. I remove the paper, and raise the skirts up to look at them again before I pack them. Something falls to floor. I reach down and feel something cool in my hand. I move close to the candlelight to see what I have. There are five long silk ribbons in my hand, all different colors. The woman in the marketplace! She has given these ribbons to me!There is no defense against a generous spirit, and this time I cry, and very hard, as if I could make up for all the months that I didn’t cry.Questions:21. When the author met the woman in the market, what was the woman doing?22. How can you describe bargaining in Laos?23. According to the author, why did the woman accept the last offer?24. Why did the author finally decide to buy three skirts?25. Why did the writer cry eventually when she looked at the skirts again? Part Four：Translation1. A second aspect of technology transfer concentrates on US high technology exports.China has correctly complained in the past that the US was unnecessarily restrictive in limiting technology sales to China. Recently some liberalization has taken place and major increases in technology transfers have taken place as the result. However, some items continue to be subject to restrictions and unnecessary delay, in part because the US Government submits many items to COCOM(巴黎统筹委员会) for approval. There is significant room for improvement with the US bureaucracy and COCOM.2. Good manners are necessary because we are judged by our manners. Our mannersnot only show what kind of education we have received and what our social position is, but they also tend to show what our nature is. A person with good manners is always an agreeable companion, because he always thinks of others andshows respect for others.3. Individualism and collectivism have permeated every aspect of Eastern andWestern culture, influencing American and Chinese economics, politics, morals and values, and especially communication patterns. This is important, for research has proved that the number one cause of failure in international business and relations is not economics or even business but cross-cultural communication.4. It is known to all that knowledge is power. Young people without knowledgecannot expect to become assets to society. In order to acquire profound knowledge, they strive to study well in school in the first place. This does not mean that knowledge only consists in books. In most cases, the knowledge from books is no substitute for the knowledge derived from social practices. For this obvious reason, young people should also regard it as indispensable to their acquirement of knowledge to learn earnestly from the experienced people and from society as well.In short, the rightly motivated young people are advised to insist on obtaining knowledge from all kinds of sources.5. 今天，环境问题变得越来越严重了。

1 Description of Igneous RocksThe classification of igneous rocks is based first on the size of grains and second on the mineralogical composition. A coarsegrained rock is one in which the grain size is large enough for us to recognize individual minerals either with the naked eye or with the aid of a low-power magnifying lens. A fine-grained rock is one in which the grains are too small to be distinguished from each other and in which the "groundmass" appears homogeneous. Rock characteristics such as the sizes and shapes of grains and their arrangement are generally referred to in the broad category of texture.Once we have subdivided the igneous rocks into coarse and fine grained, the next major breakdown is made on the basis of mineralogical composition. To describe coarse-grained rocks①, we shall use the name granite for all rocks containing quartz; diorite for rocks without quartz but having a preponderance of feldspar (generally plagioclase); and gabbro for rocks in which dark minerals such as hornblende and augite predominate over other minerals. Actually the percentages of quartz, orthoclase or microcline, plagioclase, hornblende, augite, and olivine vary gradually from one rock to another, and the boundaries we have placed to delineate the various rock types are arbitrary. Thus, most rocks containing large amounts of quartz are also rich in potassium feldspar and comparatively impoverished in dark minerals such as hornblende and augite. Olivine occurs only in rocks comparatively rich in hornblende and augite, or in the special and rather rare rock peridotite. Olivine and quartz cannot occur together, because the two would react to form a pyroxene.The fine-grained rocks have a range of chemical composition nearly identical to that of the coarse-grained rocks②. The classification, however,is not based on chemical composition but on the presence of visible and readily identifiable minerals. Consequently, the rocks which are completely fine grained are virtually unclassifiable except under very high-power magni-fication. Most fine-grained rocks, however, contain a small percentage of grains which are sufficiently coarse to be identified with the aid of a hand lens. These grains which are larger than their surrounding minerals are called phenocrysts, and a rock containing phenocrysts is said to have a porphyritic texture. The classification of fine-grained rocks, then, is based on the proportion of minerals which form phenocrysts and these phenocrysts reflect the general composition of the remainder of the rook. The fine-grained portion of a porphyritic rock is generally referred to as the groundm ass of the phenocrysts. The terms "porphyritic" and "phenocrysts" are not restricted tofine-grained rocks but may also apply to coarse-grained rocks which contain a few crystals distinctly larger than the remainder.The term obsidian refers to a glassy rock of rhyolitic composition. In general, fine-grained rocks consisting of small crystals cannot readily be distinguished from③glassy rocks in which no crystalline material is present at all. The obsidians, however, are generally easily recognized by their black and highly glossy appearance. Pumice is a white porous glass of the same com-position as obsidian. Apparently the difference between the modes of formation of obsidian and pumice is that in pumice the entrapped water vapors have been able to escape by a frothing process which leaves a network of interconnected pore spaces, thus giving the rock a highly porous and open appearance.④Pegmatite is a rock which is texturally the exact opposite of obsidian.⑤Pegmatites are generally formed as dikes associated with major bodies of granite. They are characterized by extremely large individual crystals; in some pegmatites crystals up to several tens of feet in length have been identified, but the average size is measured in inches. Most mineralogical museums contain a large number of spectacular crystals from pegmatites.Peridotite is a rock consisting primarily of olivine, though some varieties contain pyroxene in addition. It occurs only as coarse-grained intrusives, and no extrusive rocks of equivalent chemical composition have ever been found.Tuff is a rock which is igneous in one sense and sedimentary in another⑥.A tuff is a rock formed from pyroclastic material which has been blown out of a volcano and accumulated on the ground as individual fragments called ash.Two terms are useful to refer solely to the composition of igneous rocks regardless of their textures. The term silicic signifies an abundance of silica-rich and light-colored minerals, such as quartz, potassium feldspar, and sodic plagioclase.

The first group consists of those rocks in which the component materials have been derived from preexisting rocks, and have been moved-perhaps great distances-to the ultimate site of deposition①. Rocks of this type are commonly referred to as clastic or detrital. A second broad group of sedimentary rocks consists of those rocks whose component materials have been formed either in or very close to the ultimate site of deposition. Such rocks include chemical precipitates and certain types of sediments which consist largely of the broken shells of organisms that lived in or near the depositional environment. This second group of rocks includes the limestones and dolomites and is commonly referred to as chemical.Clastic rocks are generally subdivided largely on the basis of the grain size of the component material. The commonly used terms are: CONGLOMERATES AND BRECCIAS. These are rocks which consist of pebble-and cobble-sized material. In a conglomerate the grains are reasonably smooth and rounded. In a breccia the grains areirregular and angular. Conglomerates and breccias generally develop in areas quite close to their source rocks.SANDSTONES. Sediments consisting primarily of sand-sized materials constitute approximately one-fourth of the sedimentary rocks exposed on the continents. The predominant minerals of sandstones are quartz and feldspars, and in many sandstones quartz constitutes virtually the entire sediment. Minerals such as biotite, hornblende, and augite, which are common in igneous source rocks, are comparatively unstable in contact with the air and water of the earth's surface. Hence the proportion of quartz and feldspar is increased in sedimentary rocks over its percentage in igneous rocks. Geologists commonly subdivide sandstones into three different groups: orthoquartzites, arkoses and graywackes.SILTSTONES. These are rocks that are composed of hardened silt.SHALE. Shale is best defined as consisting of extremely fine--grained minerals in the size range designated as clay. In addition to this size definition for shale particles, many of the minerals that are found in the shale are commonly referred to as clay minerals. In fact, fine-grained muscovite is one of the major clay minerals and is probably the most common component of the ordinary shale. Nearly two-thirds of all sedimentary rocks are shale.The chemical rocks are primarily limestones, consisting of the mineral calcite and dolomite. Carbonate rocks comprise approximately five percent of all of the known sediments. Limestones are classified as chemical largely by a terminological convention, and because it②is felt that the material constituting limestones has generally been deposited by some type of chemical precipitation from water.Apparently almost all limestones were originally deposited in the ocean. One of the best pieces of evidence for a marine origin for the average limestone is the fact that the bulk of the calcite in most limestones consists of small pieces of shells of marine invertebrates③. Many limestones, in fact, consist almost exclusively of pieces ofbrachiopods, mollusks, corals, or other organisms. In addition to shell fragments, limestones contain a large variety of other types of material. Oolites, for example, are small spherical aggregates of calcium carbonate.Dolomites are less common than limestones, although they are extremely abundant in deposits of certain periods. There appear to be two major types of dolomites. The first occurs as broad extensive beds of relatively finegrained homogeneous material. It looks almost identical to fine-grained limestone and can be distinguished only by simple chemical tests. The other type of dolomite consists generally of more coarsely crystalline material. This type of dolomite generally does not form extensive beds but may occur as irregular patches within a sequence of limestones. In many cases these patches cut across the bedding or other original features of the limestones, and the dolomite quite clearly has formed after deposition of limestone.Halite, gypsum, and related materials constitute a very small portion of the geologic record and occur in only a few places on the earth's surface. These minerals are generally grouped together under the term evaporites.Two other sediments of extremely restricted occurrence should also be mentioned. One of these is a rock which consists exclusively of fine-grained SiO2 and is called chert. In most cases, this SiO2 is not in the crystalline form of quartz, and in some rocks the material is completely amorphous. Another minor but highly important, type of sediment is referred to as iron formation. Iron formation generally consists of iron oxides, such as magnetite and hematite, interbedded with chert. The importance of these rocks is that a small amount of chemical alteration converts them into highly concentrated hematite rocks, generally by a partial removal of the chert, and the resulting hematite rock forms the major iron ore deposits of the world.New Wordsaggregate [ ✌grigeit] n. 集合体amorphous [☜m :f☜s] a. 非晶质的arkose [ a:k☜us] n. 长石砂岩augite [ :d✞ait] n. 辉石biotite [ bai☜tait] n. 黑云母breccia [ bret☞☜] n. 角砾岩broad [br :d] a. 概括的chert [t☞☜:t] n. 燧石coarsely [ k :sli] ad. 粗, 粗糙地cobble [k bl] n. 中砾石convention [k☜n ven☞☜n] n. 惯例definitely [ definitli] ad. 确定地description [dis krip☞☜n] n. 描述detrital [di trait☜l] a. 碎屑的evaporite [i v✌p☜rait] n. 蒸发岩extensive [iks tensiv] a. 广阔的group [♈ru:p] n. 群，类，分类hardened [ ha:d☜nd] a. 变硬的，固结的hematite [ hem☜tait] n.赤铁矿hornblende [ h :nblend] n. 角闪石mollusk [ m l☜sk] n. 软体动物muscovite [ m✈sk☜vait] n. 白云母oolite [ ☜u☜lait] n. 鲕石partial [ pa:☞☜l] a. 部分的patch [p✌t☞] n. 碎片,团块pebble [pebl] n. 卵石predominant [pri d min☜nt] a. 主要的，占优势的sand-sized 砂粒级的terminological [ֽt☜:min☜l d✞ik☜l] a. 术语学的two-fold 二倍的，二重的3 Origin of Metamorphic RocksThe composition, texture, and structure of metamorphic rocks are affected by a number of factors. One of the primary factors is, of course, the composition of the parent or original material before metamorphism. Thus a limestone cannot be converted into a quartzite, and a quartzite cannot be converted into an eclogite. Rocks of identical chemical composition, however, may be quite different after metamorphism depending upon the conditions of the metamorphic process itself. Metamorphictemperatures range over several hundreds of degrees; pressures range over several thousands of atmospheres, and directed stress may or may not be present. A fourth factor which may have considerable effect on the nature of the minerals formed is the presence or absence of large amounts of water vapor in pores between the minerals during metamorphism. This vapor, being highly mobile, may be present during metamorphism and then lost subsequently, possibly upon exposure of the rock to the earth's surface.Most geologists feel that the major factor affecting the composition and mineralogy of a metamorphic rock is temperature. As a sediment such as shale is exposed to gradually increasing temperature, a whole series of reactions take place. Clay minerals tend to form such minerals as muscovite and biotite; and upon increasing temperature the muscovite and biotite may react further with other materials to yield minerals such as feldspar, garnet, and perhaps amphibole or pyroxene. Rocks of similar chemical composition but different mineralogy are said to be metamorphose d to a different degree or to have a different metamorphic rank. Another effect of the increase of temperature is the formation of larger mineral grains. In metamorphic reactions the sizes of minerals may also be controlled in part by the direction of major stress.The typical metamorphic sequence starts with an ordinary sediment and finishes with a rock of vastly different mineralogy, density, and texture. With increase in temperature and pressure, the ordinary shaly sediment is converted into a slate, further into a schist, and finally into a gneiss.Let us, for example, assume that in some metamorphic area we find a trend from slates on the east to gneisses and other more highly metamorphosed rocks on the west; we would then say that metamorphic rank has increased from east to west. As indicated above, many geologists would correlate this increase in rank with an increase in temperature, though other factors may complicate the decision. The metamorphic process we have just described has led to the development of a series of foliated rocks in which the foliation surfaces are generally considered to be perpendicular to the major compressional stress. Metamorphism under these conditions is ordinarily termed regional, for such sequences of metamorphic rock are deve1oped over very wide areas, in many cases measured in terms of thousands of square miles.Another type of metamorphism may be called contact metamorphism. This represents a series of changes that take place in wall rocks surrounding intrusions. Where a magma is injected into much colder wall rocks, the rocks tend to change mineralogically in adjustment to the higher temperatures and develop a suite minerals rather similar in most aspects to those developed during regional metamorphism. The major difference between contact and regionally metamorphosed rocks is the virtual absence of foliation or other directional features in contact rocks. The absence of directional features implies an absence of major directional stress, and at first sight, the absence of such stress seems to contradict the concept of a melt being thrust into a sequence of preexisting rocks. Apparently, however, most intrusions are formed in areas where the wall rocks may be shoved aside by the magma with sufficient ease so that directional stresses are soon lost, and the metamorphism attendant upon increased temperature in the slowly heated wall rock takes place in a situation of almost uniform pressure.New Wordsthrust [ r✈st] n. v. 逆掩amphibole [ ✌mfib☜ul] n. 角闪石aside [☜said] ad. 旁边,开atmosphere [ ✌tm☜sfi☜] n. 大气圈attendant [☜tend☜nt] a. 伴随的complicate [ k mplikeit] vt. 使复杂化compressional [k☜m pre☞☜nl] a. 压性的compressional stress 压应力contact metamorphism 接触变质作用contradict [k ntr☜dikt] n. 矛盾directed [di rektid] a. 定向的directed stress 定向应力eclogite [ ekl☜d✞ait] n. 榴辉岩feature [ fi:t☞☜] n. 特征，要素，构造feldspar [ feldspa:] n. 长石foliated [ f☜ulieitid] a. 叶片状的garnet [ ♈a:nit] n. 石榴石gneiss [nais] n. 片麻岩in terms of 以……方式inject [in d✞ekt] v. 贯入intrusion [in tru:✞☜n] n. 侵入，侵入体melt [melt] 熔体metamorphic [met☜m :fik] a. 变质的pyroxene [ pai☜r ksi:n] n. 辉石metemorphic rank 变质级别regionally [ ri:d✞☜n☜li] ad. 区域上schist [☞ist] n. 片岩shove [☞✈v] v. 推，挤浆，强使slate sleit] n. 板岩soda [ s☜ud☜] n. 氧化钠suite [swi:t] n. 一套, 一组4 FaultsA fault is a planar discontinuity between blocks of rock that have been displaced past one another, in a direction parallel to the discontinuity. A fault zone is a tabular region containing many parallel or anastomosing faults (Fig. 7.9.b). A shear zone, in the sense preferred here, is a zone across which blocks of rock have been displaced in a faultlike manner, but without prominent development of visible faults. Shear zones are thus regions of localized ductile deformation, in contrast to fault zones that are regions of localized brittle deformation. Another distinction is the normal component of displacement, which is negligible for faults and fault zones, may be appreciable for shear zones. The displacement across a shear zone can be inclined at any angle, other than 90°, to the boundaries of the zone. In another common usage [Dennis (1967, p. 133)] the term shear zone refers to a tabular region of pervasively faulted rock, that is, a fault zone containing a very large number of closely spaced and anastomosing fault surfaces.The rock immediately above and below any nonvertical fault is referred to, respectively, as the hanging wall and the footwall of the fault. The displacement vector connecting originally contiguous points in the hanging wall and footwall is called the net slip. The components of the net slip parallel to the strike and dip of the fault are the strike slip and the dip slip.The offset shown by a planar feature in a vertical cross section perpendicular to the fault is called the dip separation. The vertical and horizontal components of the dip separation are the throw and the heave. Notice, by comparing Figure 7.11 with Figure 7.10，that the dip separation is not equivalent to the dip slip, the former depending on the orientation of the offset surface as well as on the nature of the fault displacement.A fault with dominant strike slip displacement is called a strike slip fault. A fault with dominant dip slip displacement is a dip slip fault. Strike slip faults usually have very steep or vertical dips and are then referred to as transcurrent faults or wrench faults. A large transcurrent fault that terminates in another large structure, such as an oceanic ridge or trench or triplejunction, is called a transform fault.Transform faults are discussed in detail in Section 10.2.3.The sense of the strike slip part of displacement on a fault is described by the terms sinistral and dextral, or alternatively, left lateral and right lateral. A fault is sinistral or left lateral if, to an observer standing on one block and facing the other, the opposite block appears to have been displaced to his left. The strike slip component of the displacement in Figure 7.10 is sinistral.Faults dipping more or less than 45°are called, respectively, high angle faults and low angle faults.A normal fault is a high angle, dip slip fault on which the hanging wall has moved down relative to the footwall. A fault of similar type but with a dip less than 45°is sometimes called a lag [Rickard (1972)].A reverse fault is a dip slip fault, either high or low angle [Gill (1971)], on which the hanging wall has moved up relative to the footwall. The terms normal fault and reverse fault, while strictly defined for faults with zero strike slip displacement, can also be used for faults with small strike slip displacements accompanying much larger dip slip displacements [Rickard (1972)). Where the strike slip and dip slip displacements are similar in magnitude, as in Figure 7.10, the fault can be called an oblique slip fault.A (relatively) downfaulted topographic trough between high angle faults is a graben. An upfaulted block between high angle faults is a horst. The faults bordering horsts and grabens are usually normal faults.A thrust fault is a low-angle reverse fault, according to one common usage [see Dennis (1967)]. The term is also used by many geologists for low angle faults that are presumed to have involved reverse dip slip displacement but where this has not been demonstrated. A window (or fenster) is an exposure of the rock below a thrust fault that is completely surrounded by rock above the thrust. A klippe is an exposure of the rock above a thrust completely surrounded by rock below it.Fault planes are commonly filled with fragmental material known as fault breccia, or microbreccia if the fragments are microscopic. Some microbreccias are soft and are designated by terms such as pug or gouge. Others, particularly in metamorphic rocks, are hard and characterized by a platy or streaky "flow" structure in thin section. Such microbreccias, which occur as fault fillings and in wider zones of intense deformation (Section 9. 14), are called mylonites [Lapworth (1885); Waters and Campbell (1935); Christie, (1960)]. Some rocks that look like mylonites in the field are seen in thin section to be highly recrystallized, so that it is not clear whether or not they were ever microbreccias. The original meaning of the term mylonite can be broadened to include any fine-grained metamorphic rock with well-developed "flow" structure [Theodore and Christie, (1969)] or the special term blastomylonite can be used for such rocks. Blastomylonites have not necessarily suffered any of the brittle fragmentation or "milling" envisioned for ordinary microbreccias. Their fine-grain size and distinctive microstructure may be due entirely to ductile deformation accompanied by recrystallization [Bell and Etheridge (1973)]. This subject is discussed more fully in Section 9.14. Yet another kind of fault filling, present in thin films on some large faults, is a glassy material called pseudotachylyte, formed by melting as a consequence of frictional heating [Francis (1972); McKenzie and Brune (1972)].New Wordsaccompanying [☜k mp☜ni☠] a. n. 伴随的anastomose [☜n✌st☜m☜uz] n. 汇合, v. 使吻合blastomylonite[ֽbl✌st☜u mail☜nait] n. 变晶糜棱岩brittle [britl] a. 脆性的contiguous [k☯n tikju☯s] a. 接触的，相邻的deformation [di:f : mei☞☜n] n. 变形dextral[ dekstr☜l] a. 右旋的dip separation 倾向分离，倾向断距dip slip 倾向滑动discontinuity [ disk nti nju:iti] n. 不连续displace [dis pleis] v. 位移down fault ed 断落的upfaulted 断隆的envision [in vi✞☯n] v. n. 想象ductile [ d✈ktail] a. 韧性的fault breccia [ f :lt bret☞☜] 断层角砾岩fault like [ f :ltlaik] a. 断层状的fenster [ fenst☜] n. 构造窗，蚀窗filling [ fili☠] n. 充填（物）footwall[ futw :l] n. 下盘fragmental [ fr✌♈ment☜l] a. 破碎的frictional [ frik☞☜n☯l] a. 摩擦的, 由摩擦产生的gouge [♈aud✞] n. 断层泥graben [ ♈ra:b☜n] n. 地堑hanging wall [ h✌☠i☠ w :l] 上盘heave [hi:v] n. v. 平错（错距的水平分量）horst [h :st] n. 地垒incline [in klain] v. 使倾斜，倾向于klippe [ klip☜] n. 飞来峰lag [l✌♈] n. v. 滞后（断层）lateral [ l✌t☜r☜l] a. 侧向的melting[ melti☠] n. 熔融microbreccia [ maikr☜u bret☞☜] n. 显微角砾岩milling [ mili☠] n. 磨碎mylonite [ mail☜nait] n. 糜棱岩negligible [ ne♈lid✞☯bl] a. 可忽略的，不重要的normal fault正断层oblique slip fault 斜滑断层offset [ fset] v. n. 位移orientation [ :ri☜n tei☞☜n] n. 定向pervasively [ p☯:v☯sivli] ad, 扩大，蔓延，盛行platy [ pleiti] a. 板状的pseudo tachylyte [ sju:d☜u t✌kilait] n. 假玄武玻璃pug [p✈♈] n. 断层泥re crystallize [ ri: krist☜laiz] v. 重结晶reverse fault逆断层shear zone 剪切带sinistral [si nistr☜l] a. 左旋的slip [slip] v. 滑动streaky [ stri:ki] a. 有条纹的，条状的strike [straik] n. 走向strike slip 走向滑动tabular [ t✌bjul☜] a. 板状的throw [ r☜u] n. 垂直断距thrust fault逆掩断层transcurrent fault [tr✌ns k✈r☜nt f :lt]] n. 横推断层transform fault [tr✌ns f :m] n. 转换断层vector [ vekt☜] n. 向量，失量，导航，引导wrench fault [rent☞ f :lt] 平挫断层，扭断层5 Crustal Structure and Crustal MovementThe problem of crustal movement is that of the struggle between the different aspects of both internal and external contradictions of the earth. The earth's crust constitutes but a thin veneer of the whole earth's structure. Its formation is resulted from the following factors: first, those from outside the earth’s crust, e.g., the atmosphere that envelops the solid cru st, the sun and the moon, as well as various radiations from the stars may all have exerted some effect on it. Besides, the interstellar dust and meteoritic materials, and the kind falling upon the earth may also have some slight effect. Secondly, the change and movement of materials within the earth’s interior underneath the crust, e.g., the physical and chemical changes of earth materials at high temperatures and high pressures; the movement of materials under the actions of gravity and the solar and lunar tides, predominantly body tide (sometimes called solid tide, but what state of matter now exsists in the deep interior is still unknown) and the influence of the earth's rotation, all these will inevitably be found reflected in the earth's crust.From the point of view of geomechanics, elastic and inelastic deformations can be distinguished, although both are produced by the action of forces. Generally speaking, rocks are elastic when subjected to stress of short duration not exceeding their strength, but behave plastically under long-continued stress, even if their elastic limit is not exceeded; the longer the time of action of stress, the larger the plasticity they exhibit. The elastic response of rocks to stress will largely recover with the release of stress, leaving little or no records in the rocks. Inelastic deformation on the other hand will be inevitably permanently preserved. Different magnitude of stress and different manner of its action will give correspondingly permanent deformations of different nature and dimensions. There are many kinds of permanent rock deformation, including warpings, flexures, folds and fractures of different nature and extent, namely compressive, tensile, shearing, compresso-shearing and tensoshearing fractures, and cleavages, schistosities, etc.From these structural features, we can trace the action of stresses and from how forces are applied we can trace the manner of the movement of the crust. In the study of crustal movement, it seems a correct road for its solution.Summarizing the characteristics of the crustal structure in the peri-Pacific region of China and of eastern Asia, we have recognized the following prominent structural types:(1)Gigantic latitudinal structural system. In this type are included a number of gigantic, complex E-W structural zones, each forming a structural system of itself. Their main part is composed of composite strongly compressed zones of E-W trend comprising fold belts and compressive fractures of the same trend, together with oblique shear fractures and transverse tensile fractures. These are the important structural features of this kind of structural system.(2)Meridional structural system. Their main part consists of N-S compressed zones, i.e., simple or composite intense folds, with shear and tensile fractures running oblique and perpendicular to them respectively. Phenomena of strong compression are manifested especially concentratedly in some parti-cular regions such as the mountainous land of Sikang and Tibet.(3)NNE-SSW trending parallel structural zones, collectively known as the Neocathaysian structural system. The main part of this system is composed of NNE extending upwarps or fold belts and subsidence zones containing uplifts therein, with shear and tensile fractures oblique and perpendicular to them respectively. It is a kind of special structural phenomena in the peri-Pacific region of China and of eastern Asia.(4)An assemblage of parallel fold belts trending NE-SW, generally called the Cathaysian or Cathaysoid structural system. It consists mainly of NE-SW folds, compressive and compressoshear fractures or cleavages and schistosities, etc. There also frequently occur oblique shear fractures and transverse tensile fractures where folding is well developed. These structural systems are mostly present in older formations and are generally older than the Neocathaysian system. But in formations in which the latter develops, the former is also occasionally found. This comparatively new quasi-Cathaysian structure is called cathaysoid structure.(5) Shear structural system. The patterns of this kind of structural system are varied. Nevertheless, they have one characteristic in common: they all reflect that the areas in which they occur have been。

中国地质大学（北京）考博英语阅读解析Passage Nine（Holmes' Knowledge）His ignorance was as remarkable as his knowledge. Of contemporary literature, philosophy and politics he appeared to know next to nothing. Upon my quoting Thomas Carlyle, he inquired in the naivest way who he might be and what he had done. My surprise reached a climax, however, when I found incidentally that he was ignorant of the Copernican Theory and of the composition of the Solar system."You appear to be astonished, " Holmes said, smiling at my expression. "Now that I do know it I shall do my best to forget it. You see, I consider that a man's brain originally is like a little empty attic, and you have to stock it with such furniture as you choose： A fool takes in all the lumber of every sort that he comes across, so that the knowledge which might be useful to him gets crowded out, or at best jumbled up with a lot of other things, so that he has difficulty in laying his hand upon it. It is a mistake to think that the little room has elastic walls and can distend to any extent. Depend upon it, there comes a time when for every addition of knowledge you forget something that you know before. It is of the highest importance, therefore, not to have useless facts elbowing out the useful ones.""But the Solar System！ " I protested.（PS:The way to contact yumingkaobo TEL:si ling ling-liu liu ba-liu jiu qi ba QQ: 772678537) "What the deuce is it to me？" he interrupted impatiently.One morning, I picked up a magazine from the table and attempted to while away the time with it, while my companion munched silently at his toast. One of the articles had a pencil mark at the heading, and I naturally began to run my eye through it.Its somewhat ambitious title was "The Book of Life, " and it attempted to show how much an observant man might learn by an accurate and systematic examination of all that came in his way. It struck me as being a remarkable mixture of shrewdness and of absurdity. The reasoning was close and intense, but the deduction appeared to me to be far-fetched and exaggerated. The writer claimed by a momentary expression, a twitch of a muscle or a glance of an eye, to fathom a man's inmost thought. Deceit, according to him, was impossibility in the case of one trained to observation and analysis. His conclusionswere as infallible as so many propositions of Euclid. So startling would his results appear to the uninitiated that until they learned the processes by which he had arrived at them they might well consider him as a necromancer."From a drop of water, "said the writer, "a logician could infer the possibility of an Atlantic. So all life is a great chain, the nature of which is known whenever we are shown a single link of it. Like all other arts, the science of Deduction and Analysis is one which can be acquired by long and patient study, nor is life long enough to allow any mortal to attain the highest possible perfection in it.

Frequency means 1 fast the sound wave vibrates. Faster vibrations produce 2 pitched sounds. The notes in a musical scale indicate the 3 or frequency of the sound. 4 word that can describe a sound is intensity. Intensity 5 to the amount of energy in a sound wave, and it 6 a sound’s loudness. Printed music will often include notes about how loud or 7 to play each section of the music. Timbre is another 8 used to describe musi c al sounds. It describes how the same note will have 9 sounds when played 10 different instruments. For example the same note may sound soft and pretty when played on a flute, 11 strong and brassy when played on a trumpet. The timbre of a note comes from both the actual note 12 is played 13 also its overtones, 14 are other higher and lower sounds that are produced 15 the same time.Part Two Reading Comprehension (40 points)Directions: In this part there are five passages, each followed by questions or unfinished statements. For each of them, there are four choices marked A, B, C, and D. Choose the best one.Passage OneQuestions 16 to 18 are based on the following passage.The last of the dinosaurs lived during a time called the Cretaceous period. This time period lasted from about 135 million to 65.5 million years ago. Some sources give the years of 146,145, or 144 million to 65 million years ago.In the Cretaceous period, the middle of North America was covered by a shallow sea. The Atlantic Ocean began opening up between Europe and North America as those continents rifted. Other continents that had begun pulling away from each other in the Jurassic continued drifting apart. India was an island by itself.Evergreen trees, mosses, and ferns had been the main types of plants, but now in the Cretaceous, flowering plants appeared. Bees did, too. Hardwood trees like oaks and maples first appeared in the fossil record.Modem birds and mammals came into the fossil record. Tyrannosaurus and Triceratops came into existence. So did other ceratopsian dinosaurs, relatives of Triceratops, with their wide variety of facial horns and neck frills. Great herds of perhaps 10,000 Triceratops roamed the edges of the North American Inland Sea. The climate began to cool.At the end of the Cretaceous, another mass extinction wiped out as much as 90 percent of marine life and 50 percent of life on land. There were no more dinosaurs after the end of the Cretaceous, at about 65.5 million years ago. The Cenozoic era, also called the Age of Mammals, began.16. The mass extinction at the end of Cretaceous period .A. killed all the dinosaursB. killed half of all life on landC. killed as much as 90 percent of marine lifeD. all of the above17. Continents in the Cretaceous period were .A. drifting apartB. moving towards each otherC. in the same locations as they are todayD. none of the above18. The author's main purpose for writing this was to .A. informB. entertainC. warnD. persuadePassage TwoQuestions 19 to 22 are based on the following passage.Physical therapy is the treatment of people of all ages with injured or diseased muscles, arms, or legs. Physical therapists, or PTs as they are often called, treat patients with exercise and massage. PTs do not use medicine to treat patients. Sometimes water or heat therapies are used for treatment as well. Physical therapy helps an injured or sick person move with less pain and stress.PTs are not medical doctors，but doctors often refer patients to physical therapists to help patients recover from injuries or deal with diseases. A PT studies the patient’s medical records. Then he or she develops a treatment plan to improve the patient’s ability to move the injured limb. PTs work with patients to strengthen damaged or weakened muscles, PTs may teach the patient how to use crutches, wheelchairs, or an artificial limb. Therapists want patients to be able to do as many daily activities as they possibly can. The PT keeps a record of the patient’s progress. Treatments ate change according to the patient’s needs and rate of progress.Physical therapists must graduate from a physical therapy program at a college or university. A four year baccalaureate degree is required. In addition, a master’s degree requires two to two and one-half more years. A doctorate degree requires three years.Physical therapists must pass a national and/or state exam to get a license. Some PTs work in hospitals, nursing homes, or doctors’ offices. Some PTs travel to patients’ homes to work with patients who are homebound. Some PTs work in schools, health clubs, or with sports teams. PTs may specialize in a certain field, such as sports medicine, working with athletes. They might choose cardiology, working with patients with heart disease or defects. They might choose the field of pediatrics if they like working with children.If you are a person who likes people and wants to help them improve their lives, you might like to be a physical therapist. If so, you should have strong communication and interpersonal skills. Above all, compassion is a required character trait for a PT.19.

Her father was an obscure German military prince named Christian August, and her mother was Princess Joanna Elizabeth of Holstein-Gottorp. Her father was ruler of the tiny principality of Anhalt-Zerbst, but the greater part of his life was spent as an officer in the service of Prussia.In 1744，she arrived in Moscow with her mother to marry Peter, the Grand Duke of Holstein, grandson of Peter the Great and heir to the Russian throne (later Peter III). Their marriage was an unhappy one. Catherine (now baptized into the Russian Orthodox Church under that name) spent much of her time preparing for her future reign.In 1761，Peter was crowned emperor. Supported by the Russian military, Catherine overthrew Peter in 1762 and became Catherine II. She quickly began to make changes in government and society based on ideas learned from French philosophers of the Enlightenment and the authors of ancient Rome.She was a mend of Voltaire and other European writers, and wrote stories and plays. She supported French writer and philosopher Denis Diderot when he was broken-she bought his library, hired him to look after it at his own house. for which she paid him a salary for the next 50 years in advance.Catherine patronized the arts, music and education, and she put millions of rubles into the creation of the Hermitage Museum, which today is the delight of Russia and the world. No other Russian monarch appreciated beauty as much as Catherine. She set the stage for the emergence of a national Russian culture that would become something unique and wonderful in the 19th century.Catherine established the first schools for women, including the Smolny Institute for girls in St. Petersburg. Also, Russia’s first public schools and universities were founded during her reign.Her rule was one of the most prosperous periods of the Russian Empire. She undertook a wide range of internal political reforms, waged two successful wars against the Ottoman Empire and occupied vast territories on Russia’s southern boundaries^ eventually advancing the country’s border to the Black S ea.23. How old was Catherine when she arrived in Russia to marry Grand Duke Peter of ; Holstein?A. 21B. 15C. 13D. Not mentioned24. How did Catherine become ruler of Russia?A. Her father died.B.

Public schools were established for girlsC. Millions of rubles were robbed and storedD. All of the abovePassage FourQuestions 27 to 31 are based on the following passage.Americans often say that there are only two things a person can be sure of in life: death and taxes. Americans do not have a comer on the “death” market, but many people feel that the United States leads the wor ld with the most taxes.Taxes consist of the money which people pay to support their government. There are generally three levels of government in the United States: federal, state and city: therefore, there are three types of taxes.Salaried people who earn more than a few thousand dollars must pay a certain percentage of their salaries to the federal government. The percentage varies from person to person. It depends on their salaries. The federal government has a graduated income tax, that is, the percen tage of the tax increases as a person’s income increase. With the high cost of taxes, people are not very happy on April 15, when the federal taxes are due.The second tax is for the state government: New York, California, or any of the other forty-eight states. Some states have an income tax similar to that of the federal government. Of course, the percentage for the state tax is lower. Other states have a sales tax, which is a percentage charged to any item which you buy in that state. For example, a person might want to buy a packet of cigarettes for twenty-five cents. If there is a sales tax of eight percent in that state, then the cost of the cigarettes is twenty-seven cents. This figure includes the sales tax. Some states use income tax in addition to sales tax to raise their revenues. The state tax laws are diverse and confusing.The third tax is for the city. This tax comes in two forms: property tax (people who own a home have to pay taxes on it) and excise tax, which is charged on cars in a city. The cities use these funds for education, police and fire departments, public works and municipal buildings.Since Americans pay such high taxes, they often feel that they are working one each week just to pay their taxes. People always complain about taxes. They often protest that the government uses their tax dollars in the wrong way.They say that it spends too much on useless and impractical programs. Although Americans have different views on many issues, they tend to agree on one subject: taxes are too high.27. How do you understand “ Americans do not have a corner on the death market” ?A. Americans can’t monopolize this market.B. There is no such place as a death market in the United StatesC. Americans are not good at doing business in the death market.D. Americans do not have secret place to keep from death in their life.28. What’s the attitude of the Americans towards taxes?A. Take them easy.B. Try to resist them.C. Complain and protestD. Take them as their duty.29. What’s th e difference between federal tax and state tax?A. They have the same percentage.B. It is not mentioned in the passage.C. The percentage for the state tax is higher than the federal tax.D. The percentage for the federal tax is higher than the state tax.30. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Excise tax is charged on cars.B. there is a unified state tax laws.C. Income tax increases as a person’s income increases.D. Some states have both an income tax and a sales tax.31. Which of the following usages of the taxes is NOT mentioned in the passage？A. For raising their revenues.B. For sustaining development.C. For police and fire departments.D. For public works and municipal buildingsPassage FiveQuestions 32 to 35 are based on the following passage.Sustainable development is applied to just about everything from energy to clean water and economic growth, and as a result it has become difficult to question either the basic assumptions behind it or the way the concept is put to use. This is especially true in agriculture, where sustainable development is often taken as the sole measure of progress without a proper appreciation of historical and cultural perspectives.To start with, it is important to remember that the nature of agriculture has changed markedly throughout history, and will continue to do so. Medieval agriculture in northern Europe fed, clothed and sheltered a predominantly rural society with a much lower population density than it is today. It had minimal effect on biodiversity, and any pollution it caused was typically localized. In terms of energy use and the nutrients capture in the product it was relatively inefficient.Contrast this with farming since the start of the industrial revolution. Competition from overseas led farmers to specialize and increase yields. Throughout this period food became cheaper, safe and more reliable, However, thesechanges have also led to habitat loss and to diminishing biodiversity.What’s more, demand for animal products in developing countries is growing so f ast that meeting it will require an extra 300 million tons of grain a year by 2050. Yet the growth of cities and industry is reducing the amount of water available for agriculture in many regions.All this means that agriculture in the 21st century will have to be very different from how it was in the 20气This will require radical thinking. For example, we need to move away from the idea that traditional practices are inevitably more sustainable than new ones. We also need to abandon the notion that agriculture can be “zero impact”. Th e key will be to abandon the rather simple and static measures of sustainability, which centre on the need to maintain production without increasing damage.Instead we need a more dynamic interpretation, one that looks at the pros and cons of all the various way land is used. There are many different ways to measure agricultural performance besides food yield: energy use, environmental cost, water purity, carbon footprint and biodiversity. It is clear, for example, that the carbon of transporting tomatoes from Spain to the UK is less than that of producing them in the UK with additional heating and lighting. But we do not know whether lower carbon footprints will always be better for biodiversity.What is crucial is recognizing that sustainable agriculture is not just about sustainable food production.32. How is the agriculture in Middle Ages according to the passage?A. Agriculture generally had efficient productivity.B. Agriculture caused pollution only i n small areas.C. Agriculture could provide plenty of nutritious food.D. Agriculture could feed, clothe and shelter the whole society.33. What had happened in agriculture after the start of the industrial revolution?A. People could not trust the safety of food.B. More animals and plants c m be found in farms.C. Competition drove farmers to produce more food.D. People were given more opportunities to reduce its impact.34. Which of the following is a radical way to think of agriculture in 21st century?A. Traditional practices are inevitably more sustainable than new ones.B. Agriculture can be “zero impact”C. Sustainability can be measured from more aspects.D. Demand for animal products in developing countries should growing fast.35. Which of the following is NOT true?A. Lower carbon footprints are better for biodiversity.B. Growth of industry helps reduce biodiversity.C. Sustainability should be measured by different ways.D. Expansion of cities reduces the amount of water supply for agriculturePart Three Vocabulary and Structure (15 points)Directions: In this part there are 30 incomplete sentences, each with four suggested answers.

It ’s these differences that cause wind to flow over our planet’s surface. Scientists convert wind energy into electrical energy by using wind mills or wind turbines. The turbines take the movement of the air and convert it into mechanical energy. Each wind mill contains blades that are connected to a generator. The faster the blades spin the more energy that is produced by the generator. In areas that have constant winds, you will find wind farms and small, wind-driven generators. On these wind farms are hundreds of wind turbines capable of providing the electricity for entire communities. The small wind-driven generators are used for individual homes to produce electricity. Similar to solar energy, wind energy cannot be consistently used. There are areas around the world that do not have constant winds. In areas like windy mountain passes, the wind does not blow continuously. Therefore wind energy is only dependable for certain areas of the planet.中俄油气合作目前发展的势头很好，在未来合作的道路上，可能还会遇到各种各样的困难，有时甚至会出现挑战大于机遇的情况。
