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.

重庆大学考博高分学习法—心理篇 孙子兵法中讲,“攻心为上”，“预攻其身，先攻其心”。这就说明，做任何事情首先是要心理上先攻关，空城计就是一个很好的心理战术的运用。考博从一定程度上说也是一个心理战，心理素质好的同学往往更容易应付。可不要小看这一点呀！这是你拼搏的精神支撑。之所以把这点放在最开始，也是基于它重要的战略地位啊！应该怎样具备一个过硬的心理状态，打好这场心理战呢？具体来说，有以下几点供大家参考： 首先，要保持乐观积极的态度。无论你选择的目标的难易程度怎样，无论从客观上来看，你考上的可能性大小怎样，无论你在备考时所处环境的优劣程度怎样，你都要尽量的做到乐观的看待这件事，如果感觉自己的压力过大，不妨给自己设计好考失博败后的退路，这样学习压力会明显减小的。我当时就是给自己做了最坏的打算，就是考不上大不了回家乡支援家乡教育事业，也是很能实现人生价值的嘛！这样想就能让心里轻松许多。如果你感到自己学的不大好，就想别人可能和自己差不多，因为大家复习的时间都是差不多的，智力水平也是差不多的，即使有差距也是有机会赶上的。如果复习的不是太充分，就想还不一定考什么题呢，说不定只考自己复习到的呢，万一上帝怜悯，幸运之神降临， 还能撞进去呢！这不都是可能的吗？作一个乐观向上的人，这样你赢的机会才会大！来源：考试大其次，尽可能的排除外界事务干扰，保持心如直水，不骄不愠，从而减少心理波动因素。这就要 求你在考博期间内，减少交友会友次数，吩咐你的朋友、亲戚尽可能不给自己添麻烦，哪怕是请客吃饭的好事也要减少。还有那些与考博无关的杂事，该减少的都要减少。因为这些事情，看起来是小事，可多起来就会总让自己分心，学习起来心不够静。我采取的方法是提前通知四路友人亲人，没有重大事宜不要通知我，或是来寻求我的帮助，因为我目前只能寻求自保。大家也是很能理解的，就都没怎么烦我，使我安安静静的走过了这段路。更甚至余，我连生日都省略不过了，中午吃了碗面，搞定！牺牲得够彻底吧？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再次，遇到挫折或失落时，要善于自我调节。要知道，“小不忍则乱大谋”呀！千万不要因为一时的不顺利就倍受打击，情绪低落，灰心丧气。比如说作一套模拟题，打的分很不理想，那有什么呢？只是一套练习题而已嘛，又不是真的考试题，更不是考场实战，也就是这套题发挥的不好而已，或是这套题考中了自己的很多复习漏洞罢了。这种情况谁都会时常碰到的。如果每一次都伤心一次，那我想等考完，一定都博不知道“伤心”二字如何写了。所以，一定要做到心胸宽广，宰相肚里能撑船嘛！ 第四，要有自己的一套心理调节措施，或者说是情绪发泄渠道。因为人不是圣人，再好的心理素 质也有受不了的时候。这时你就要用你自己的方法，适合自己的方法去宣泄内心的不满与压抑，从而 能够尽快的恢复到好的状态。比如说，打电话给友人大发牢骚，在父母面前撒娇，到操场上跑步、打 球，逛街购物，吃最想吃、最喜欢吃的东西，看场电影……方法的选择是因人而异的。对于爱吃甜点 的我可就惨了，可想而知，我的又一大牺牲——体重！ 第五，要有同路人。这一点我认为是很重要的，因为艰辛的道路上是需要大家携手同行的。最让 我感到幸运的是我拥有一个考博寝室，有三个考博姐妹与我共同奋斗，我们相互扶持，相互安慰，相 互鼓励，让我这一路走来从不觉得痛苦和孤独。在校园的路上，在图书馆的自习室里，都能看到我们 四姐妹同甘苦、共患难的身影，这是最让我珍惜和难忘的点滴！这是一种心理上的平和与满足。所以， 考博过程中，你所处的生活环境很重要，你的伙伴也很重要，一定要建立自己的考博同盟军！ 第六，一定要树立阿Q精神，学会使用精神胜利法。具体做法是：每天早晨起床的第一件事就是

Reading Comprehension (35 minutes) Directions:There are 4 reading 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 mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage: When Kathie Gifford ’s face was splashed across the newspapers in 1996 after her lucrative line of Wal mart clothing was exposed as the work of underpaid laborers in New York City ’s Chinatown, the Department of Labor and the White House teamed up to condemn such practices. With much fanfare, President Clinton’s administration launched the “No Sweat” campaign, which pressured retailers and manufacturers to submit to periodic independent inspection of their workplace conditions.; This campaign urged manufacturers to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct, a promise to self regulate that has since been adopted by a handful of retailers and many of the nation ’s largest manufacturers, including Nike and L.L. Bean. However, the Department of Defense, which has a $ 1 billion garment business that would make it the country’s 14th largest retail apparel outlet, has not signed the Code of Conduct. In addition, it has not agreed to demand that its contractors submit to periodic inspections.; Because the Department of Defense has not agreed to adhere to the code, the job of stopping public sector sweatshops falls to the Department of Labor. Federal contractors that persist in violating wage laws or safety and health codes can lose their lucrative taxpayer financed contracts. But Suzanne Seiden, a deputy administrator at the Department of Labor, says that to her knowledge, the department has never applied that rule to government apparel manufacturers. “I just assume that they are adhering to safety and health requirements,” she says. According to records obtained by Mother Jones, through a Freedom of Information Act request, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration has cited Lion 32 times for safety and health violations in the past 12 years. 21.What is this passgage mainly concerned with? A)The functions of the Department of Labor in America. B)A serious problem threatening American economy. C)The successful attempt of regulating sweatshops in America. D)The seriousness of the problem of sweatshops in America. 22.According to the passage, Kathie Gifford ____. A) was one of the underpaid laborers in New York City’s Chinatown B) was one of the well paid laborers in New York City ’s Chinatown C) made much money from cheap laborers in New York City’s Chinatown D) wrote a newspaper article exposing the practice of employing cheap laborers 23.The underlined p hrase “to submit to” is closest in meaning to ____. A) to accept unwillingly B) to refuse coldly C) to welcome warm heartedly D) to blame strongly 24.Which of the following statements about the Department of Defense is true? A) It will become the count ry’s 14th largest retail apparel manufacturer. B) It hasn’t acted according to the Workplace Code of Conduct. C) It has demanded its contractors to sign the Workplace Code of Conduct. D) It has teamed up with the Department of Labor to launch a campaign. 25.What was the purpose of President Clinton’s administration launching the “No Sweat” campaign? A) To urge manufacturers to obey the Workplace Code of Conduct. B) To remind the manufacturers of the Workplace Code of Conduct. C) To urge the Department of Labor to take its responsibility. D) To urge the Department of Defense to inspect manufacturers. Passage Two Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage: The term investment portfolio conjures up visions of the truly rich-the Rockefellers, the Wal Mart Waltons, Bill Gates. But today, everyone-from the Philadelphia firefighter, his part time receptionist wife and their three children, to the single Los Angeles lawyer starting out on his own-needs a portfolio.; A portfolio is simply a collection of financial assets. It may include real estate, rare stamps and coins, precious metals and even artworks. But those are for people with expertise. What most of us need to know about are stocks, bonds and cash (including such cash equivalents as money market funds).; How do you decide what part of your portfolio should go to each of the big three? Begin by understanding that stocks pay higher returns but are more risky; bonds and cash pay lower returns but are less risky.; Research by Ibbotson Associates, for example, shows that large company stocks, on average, have returned 11.2 percent annually since 1926. Over the same period, by comparison, bonds have returned an annual average of 5.3 percent and cash, 3.8 percent.; But short term risk is another matter. In 1974, a one year $1000 investment in the stock market would have declined to $735.; With bonds, there are two kinds of risk: that the borrower won’t pay you back and that the money you’ll get won’t be worth very much. The U.S. government stands behi nd treasury bonds, so the credit risk is almost nil. But the inflation risk remains. Say you buy a $1000 bond maturing in ten years. If inflation averages about seven percent over that time, then the $1000 you receive at maturity can only buy $500 worth of today’s goods.; With cash, the inflation risk is lower, since over a long period you can keep rolling over your CDs every year (or more often). If inflation rises, interest rates rise to compensate.; As a result, the single most imortant rule in building a portfolio is this: If you don’t need
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.

Write your answer on your Answer Sheet. Passage One Problems and discouragements will face the leader, but he can overcome them with staying power. It seems as if many of the world’s famous people faced some of the greatest difficulties and discouragements in carrying out their visions. Christopher Columbus, for instance, concluded from the information he acquired from his travels and from studying charts and maps, that the earth was round and that he could reach Asia by sailing west. But he needed a patron to finance such an expedition. He first tried John II., King of Portugal, without success, and then, the Count of Medina Celi in Spain. The Count encouraged Columbus for two years, but never actually provided him with the money and supplies he needed. Ferdinand and Isabella, King and Queen of Castile in Spain, were then contacted. A review of Columbus’ plans by a committee appointed by the queen
