浙江工商大学2015年考博各科复习资料推荐
2014年各大院校的考博复试工作已基本上完成，对于那些打算重新考博和计划2015考博的同学们来说，此时正是复习的大好时机。下面是考博成功的考生为大家推荐的2015考博复习书目，但愿可以帮助大家2015考博复习顺利!(星号表示重要程度)
注：部分推荐书目可能因出版年份或出版社变化名字有所不同，请大家自行甄别选购。
数学：
1、复习指南：李永乐李正元《数学复习全书(经济类)》*****，同样效用的有陈文登的《数学复习指南(经济类)》****，不过文登的重技巧，精华在微积分，永乐的重基础，而且从近三年的考试来看，全书更加适合考博，文登的有部分内容超纲。如果已经买了文登那本复习指南，强烈推荐再买本永乐的《线性代数辅导讲义》*****，因为永乐的线代深入浅出，非常好，可以弥补文登的线代那部分的不足。想考更高分的战友可以两本都选(个人认为全书是必备的);
2、历年真题：最好的有两个版本，一个是永乐的《历年试题解析》*****，好处在于按章节分类，题目后面还有评注，历年试卷放前面可以自测;另一个西安交大的武忠祥的《历年数学考博试题研究》****，好处在于按章节分类，还有考试考点分析和分类统计。每章后面有同步练习。如果买不到这两本，其他任何版本的真题都一样***。还有一个推荐大家买的就是可以单买一本聚焦FOCUS的考博真题集*****，性价比极高，只要2元，多买两本都不会亏，因为真题多做几遍分数就多长几分。详解就算了。联系我们扣扣：四九三三七一六二六。电话：四零零六六八六九七八。
3、模拟题：李永乐《数学全真模拟经典400题》至少做三遍*****。其
他的模拟题不要多买，虽然说是题海战术，但是太多了浪费，而且不做影响心情。恩波的模拟题***，考试虫的模拟题***，可以下载到合工大的题目最好****，跟真题比较接近
4、辅导书有《考博数学单项选择题解题方法与技巧》****和概率论与数理统计讲义(提高篇)****。有条件的可以下载新东方的网络课件，这个课件已经足够了，最好能下到永乐05年的线性代数讲课*****，非常经典，还有06费允杰的概率讲课也非常经典*****。其他田根宝的线代和概率课件就不用了，不推荐;还有文登的冲刺讲课也没有必要，辅导班就更加不用上了。原则上是能自己看书就不要课件，因为听课非常浪费时间。实在基础不行就听课吧。
记住一点，好的书可以让你更加快捷的到达终点。但是书不在多，一定要多做几遍并且总结方法。课件是非常浪费时间的，能看书就不要使用课件。
英语：
1、词汇方面：胡敏主编《核心词汇笔记》(其实是陈彩霞编的)*****，考博和六级、托福最大的不同就是考博考的是词汇的深度，所以这本书是不得不备的，原因是重点要掌握的词汇不多，就这些。网上下载可以打印的司马得考博词汇****，好处是按照组群分类，让你轻松记忆，并且有MP3下载，在平时的零碎时间都可以利用;俞敏洪考博词汇MP3，沪江有下，并且有大纲词汇文本*****。不是很推荐星火的词汇，如果能背下当然最好，不过书太厚了，计划不好安排，而且会让人没有成就感，背了好几天还没有背多少。喜欢按文章阅读的可以选用星火的30天贯通考博词汇***。
2、阅读：阅读其实不在于做题，而在于泛读，把他用来练速度，和熟悉长难句，熟悉词汇。我用的是星火的120篇****，其实不算特别好，但是也不算差，有翻译，文章题材也比较新颖，解释不是很好。还算好的，还有
老石的220篇，我没有买，也有看过，感觉太多了。对于阅读，我的看法是，把他作为泛读看，真正要研究的是真题。对于阅读大家可以根据自己的喜好随便选一本，或者不选也不要紧
3、作文：背完了新概念三和四就应该背些作文了。最好背50篇左右，背多了自己自然就会写了。推荐王建华《考博写作160篇》*****好处是比较全，可以多看看，考试时候有材料可写。其实可以到沪江搜索一下我总结的大作文和小作文就足够了，我还做成专门可以打印的省纸版本，去年考试前我总结了很多作文还不错。
4、真题：各个版本的真题都OK。是原教育部考试中心命题人王林的《考博真相》*****，红黄皮的，解析非常详尽，特别是真题词汇和长难句部分，很适合基础不是很好的考生用,可以说是真题当中最好的一本了。其他版本的真题也可以按照自己的喜好和性价比来选择***。顺便说两句真题的利用，有人拿真题的文章来背诵，我觉得不大合适，但是拿来研究出题方法和如何设计陷阱倒是非常不错。历年真题至少做5遍，如果你做了5遍，还研究了做法，那么英语不会低于65。还有就是我个人认为题目和07年真题的仿真度：05-06年真题仿真度90%;00-04年真题仿真度80%;99年以前的仿真度70%，张剑的八套模拟仿真度75%，老毕的模拟仿真度68%，其他的模拟低于60%。仿真度越高，题越好，越要好好研究，呵呵(个人定义，仅供参考)
总结：建议用书：胡敏主编《核心词汇笔记》;新概念三和四;陈彩霞的《英译汉四步定位翻译法》;王林的考博真相(真题);王建华《考博写作160篇》;考试中心张剑的八套模拟题。
政治：
1、打基础：任汝芬的《政治理论复习指导序列一》*****。其实可以选
用任何版本的大书，用于前期打基础。我看过岳华亭的《辅导讲义》****还不错。这里选用任汝芬的序列一，主要是它新东方的课件配套的，而且也划了出来，基本上是在考试大纲的大纲解释基础上写的，比较简洁明了，是实力之作。每章后面有历年真题，可以看完一章做一章，非常不错。不过不建议买07年的新版，呵呵，建议买06年的旧书，一来便宜，二来，它才是真正和06新东方强化班配套。呵呵。最主要是新书都是等7月大纲出来才有，可以提前学习。很多人觉得9月以后都不晚，反正我的背功非常差，现在的政治都比较着重理解，大题感觉是考语文的写作能力，所以如果想时间花得最少，就早点复习，一来需要的时间少，二来可以扎实基础，可以以不变应万变，毕竟押题不是正道。【这个阶段一本序列一，听听新东方的网络课程】
2、强化：7月大纲出来以后买一本考试中心的《大纲解释》*****。选用这本书的原因不用说大家都明白，一是它是考试中心出的，二是解释权威，做到不清楚的题目都要翻这本书来找解答，三是很多说法都是考试的得分点。最好能买到一本与《大纲解释》配套的《配套题解》*****。可以每看完一小节就做练习巩固。如果买不到可以买陈先奎的《2000题》****，领航的《高分过关2100题》****，包仁的《1800题》****，任汝芬的《序列二》***(不是很推荐，虽然里面的题目出的很好，但是由于不按照章节，不方便学习)。其实这些题集作用都一样，都是为了看完大纲解释以后做做题目强化记忆和对理论的理解，如果想做了这些题考试能见到同样的题，那你的想法还是错了。考博的题很活，你只能通过做了这些题后自己理解把握，到时再发挥。【这个阶段一本大纲解释，一本题集】
3、冲刺：冲刺阶段用书《考试分析》*****，这本书是大纲解释的简洁版，能背就背，不能背的就多看几遍。
或者可以选用王锁明的《核心考案》****也是小本的，适合背记知识点。时事政治可以买本启航*****的就OK了。或者其他版本也无所谓，个人喜好。
4、背诵：《陈先奎100题》******有100道重要的大题，后面精选了几百道选择题。非常不错的冲刺书。之后还会出《30题》是100题的简洁版。有一本就足够了。这个时候可以参考网上各个辅导班的押题，记住是参考。因为这两年不管他们怎么信誓旦旦，最多题目有点沾边，根本押不到的。但是有一些还是有参考价值的，比如张俊芳的马哲总结****，徐明德的时事和串讲****，都可以看看。还有20天20天，虽然故弄玄虚，参考一下还可以***。
5、模拟：这个阶段最好能狂做一下模拟题，就做选择部分，分析题随便看看就可以了。任汝芬的四套题比较不错*****，启航的五套题*****虽然题干比较长，但是质量还是不错的。其他的恩波****之类的都不错。反正网上挺多的，可以多做做。

2016年浙江大学博士生英语 听力 PART A Welcome to Everglades National Park. The Everglades is a watery plain covered with saw grass that's home to numerous species of plants and wildlife. At one and a half million acres, it's too big to see it all today, but this tour will offer you a good sampling. Our tour bus will stop first at T aylor Slough. This is a good place to start because it's home to many of the plants and animals typically associated with the Everglades. You'll see many exotic birds and, of course, our world famous alligators. Don't worry, there's a boardwalk that goes across the marsh, so you can look down at the animals in the water from a safe distance. The boardwalk is high enough to give you a great view of the saw grass prairie. From there we'll head to some other marshy and even jungle like areas that feature wonderful tropical plant life. For those of you who'd like a closer view of the saw grass prairie, you might consider renting a canoe sometime during your visit here. However, don't do this unless you have a very good sense of direction and can negotiate your way through tall grass. We'd hate to have to come looking for you. You have the good fortune of being here in the winter—the best time of year to visit. During the spring and summer, the mosquitoes will just about eat you alive! Right now they're not so bothersome, but you'll still want to use an insect repellent. Welcome to Everglades National Park.

Reading Text 1 Few social problems have increased so suddenly or been dramatized so effectively as the plight of the homeless in the 1980s and 1990s.Once an invisible people who could easily be ignored, the homeless are now recognized everywhere on the streets and in the public facilities of major cities. There are bag ladies who roam the streets carrying what is left of their possessions in shopping bags or grocery carts. There are disoriented men curled up on benches, in stairwells, or alongside walls. There are children – some runaways and some throwaways scrounge(偷，骗取) for food and shelter. The number of homeless people in underdeveloped societies in the mid-1980s was estimated by the United Nations (UN) to be more than 100 million. The so-called “new”homeless live in the developed, industrialized nations of Europe, North America, and East Asia. Accurate statistics have been impossible to verify, in part because of the conflicting viewpoints on the subject of homelessness. Politicians, lawyers, and others who become advocates for the homeless have said that there are from 2 to 3 million homeless in the US alone. Others who have studied the problem from a less sympathetic point of view suggest that the

2011年浙江大学考博英语真题听力原文，仅供参考 第一篇 Among my experiences as a college president is the all‐too‐frequent phone call in the night that begins: "One of your students is in the emergency room with alcohol poisoning." The whole country got a similar wake‐up call in Ju ne when it was reported that alcohol abuse on college campuses is on the rise, especially for women, and that college students drink far more than nonstudents. One statistic showed that college students spend more money on alcohol while in college than on books. Alcohol abuse, although tragic, is but one symptom of a larger campus crisis. A generation has come to college quite fragile, not very secure about who it is, fearful of its lack of identity and without confidence in its future. Many students are ashamed of themselves and afraid of relationships. Students use alcohol as an escape. It's used as an excuse for bad behavior: the insanity defense writ large on campus. This diminished sense of self has caused a growth in racism, sexism, attempted suicide, theft, property‐damage and cheating on most campuses. This is not the stuff of most presidents' public conversations. Nor can it be explained away as an "underclass" problem; it is found on our most privileged campuses. It is happening because the generation now entering college has experienced few authentic connections with adults in its lifetime. I call this the "Culture of Neglect," and we — parents, teachers, professors and administrators — are the primary architects. It begins at home, where social and economic factors — such as declining incomes requiring longer work hours — result in less family time. Young people have been allowed to or must take part‐time jobs rather than spending time in school, on homework or with their families. More children and youths are being reared in a vacuum, with television as their only supervisor, and there is little expectation that they learn personal responsibility. Immersed in themselves, they are left to their peers. 31. The main idea of the first paragraph is that ( ) . ×正确答案为C [A] it is easy to be a college president [B] a college president has to sit up till midnight [C] alcohol abuse is quite common on campus [D] it is harmful for college students to drink alcohol 32. According to the author, college students turn to alcohol as a(n) ( ). ×正确答案为C [A] inspiration [B] stimulation [C] escape [D] relaxation 33. The word "architects" in Para. 2 can be best replaced by ( ). ×正确答案为D [A] artists [B] experts [C] discoverers [D] designers 34. How do parents react to the "Culture of Neglect"?( ) ×正确答案为B [A] Parents have lowered their expectations on children. [B] Parents take little care of the growth of their children. [C] Parents spend too much time watching television.

学苑教育考博辅导老师为您提供备考建议，希望对您有所帮助。 Today,cigarette smoking is a common habit. About forty-three percent of the adult menand thirty-one percent of the adult women in the United States smoke cigarettesregularly. It is encouraging to see that millions of people have given upsmoking. It is a fact that men as a group smoke more than women. Among both men andwomen the age group with the highest proportion of smokers is 24-44. Income, education, and occupation all play a part in determining a person’ssmoking habit. City people smoke more than people living on farms.Well-educated men with high incomes are less likely to smoke cigarettes thanmen with fewer years of schooling and lower incomes. On the other hand, if awell-educated man with a higher income smoked at all, he is likely to smokemore packs of cigarettes per day. The situation is somewhat different for women.(80)There are slightly moresmokers among women with higher family income and higher education than amongthe lower income and lower educational groups. These more highly educated womentend to smoke more heavily. Among teenagers the picture is similar. There are fewer teenaged smokers fromupper-income, well-educated families, and fewer from families living in farmareas. Children are most likely to start smoking if one or both of theirparents smoke. 1. What do we know from the first paragraph ? A.More and more people take up the habit of smoking. B. There are more smoking women than smoking men in USA. C. It is good news that more people have given up smoking. D. The U.S. has more smoking people than any other country. 2.What factors determine a person’s smokinghabits ?
浙江大学考博英语复试经验参考 一、题型分析 浙江大学近几年博士生入学考试题型分布： 听力(20分)、词汇(15分)、完型(20分)、阅读(20分)、翻译(25分) 考试时长3个小时。 分析真题的难度，听力、翻译略难于大学英语6级，其他和6级 难度基本保持一致。感觉浙大考博英语听力难度类似于6级阅读理解。 二、近几年分数线分析【总分线（听力线）】 03春：59（10）03秋：53（7） 04春：56（8）04秋：57（8） 05春：53（7）05秋：63（11) 06春：60（11)06秋：58（9) 07秋：50（8）08秋：50（6） 09年：55（8）10年：50（6） 11年：58（7）12年：60（9） 13年：60（10）14年：60（10） 15年：60（10）16年：60（10） 17年：60（12）18年：60 60分达标建议：平时做题听力单选至少要对7个以上，因听写得分很不容易，完型对13个以上，阅读对16个以上，翻译一般同学得 分会为10-15分。
三、评分细则 1.听力听写在宽松判卷情况下，写对关键词得0.5分，时态、单 复数错误只得0.5分。注意：如写的超过规定单词数，即使写的和听 力原文完全一样，也只有0.5分，这时需要想办法去掉不重要的单词，千万不要超过规定单词数。 2.翻译一般以10-15分为基准，亮点多会提升一个档次分数 （15-20分），以此类推，语言比一般同学的还要粗糙恐怕会给10分 以下。如有“低级下流”语句，比如Iis、youis等，可能直接给10 分以下。没写完的得分也会直接降低，如果真没时间写了，注意，赶 紧去写结尾。 一模一样内容，字写得工整整齐可能会高至少3分，总体感觉和 改考研作文一样，同样一个句子，有的同学写出来就是很美的复合句、连贯、浑然一体，有的同学则是简单粗糙、堆砌、上下文断裂，虽然 表达清楚了汉语内容。 四、相对应对策 1.过好词汇关 浙大英语总体词汇量偏重于英语6级，所以选一本6级高频词汇 作为记忆点，应付考试充足。建议上班族用手机里的APP(如扇贝单词、百词斩等)背记;建议应届生还是用高频词汇本。 背单词时，不要幻想背一次就充足了，如果基础好建议背两次， 基础一般的建议背三次，每天根据自己实际情况确定要被单词量先少 后多，词汇会慢慢熟悉起来，记的时候一定要熟读例句，并注重单词 各种形式、用法和读音。到了临考前二周左右，再拿起单词本或者APP 应该能够在一周内全部背完，此时词汇量完全能够应付考试。 此外，要用好真题词汇题。分析发现真题词汇会以不同形式重复 用法，建议每做完一套真题后总结分析词汇题，特别是对自己背过的 单词如果模糊的话，一定要去查，重点注重形近词、意近词和自己不

The countless stars in the sky came from his hair and beard, and flowers and trees from his skin and the fine hairs on his body.
