Cloze:(10%, 1 point each)一、Out of step7In the United States we have become so habituated to using the car for everything that it doesn’t occur to us to unfurl our legs and see what those lower limbs can do. We have reached an age where college students expect to drive between classes, where parents will driv e three blocks to pick up their children from a friend’s house, where the letter carrier takes his van up and down every driveway on a street.8We will go through the most extraordinary contortions to save ourselves from walking. Sometimes it’s almost ludicrous. The other day I was waiting to bring home one of my children from a piano lesson when a car stopped outside a post office, and a man about my age popped out and dashed inside. He was in the post office for about three or four minutes, and then came out, got in the car and drove exactly 16 feet (I had nothing better to do, so I paced it off) to the general store next door.二、On Becoming a Better Student4Curiosity Such people are tremendously curious. The whole world is of interest to them, and they observe what others do not. Nobel Prize-winner physician Albert Szent-Gyorgyi put it well when he said, “Discovery consists of looking at the same thing as everyone else and thinking something different.” With this curiosity comes an “investigative spirit”; the learning is not so much the acquisition of information as it is an investigation—a questioning, a turning over of the object of study to see all sides and facets. It is not knowing in the sense of having a rigid opinion, but the ability to look again at another time, in a different light, as Szent-Gyorgyi suggests, and to form a new understanding based on that observation.5Discipline Any discipline — but especially those with great subtlety and complexity, like yoga or t’ai chi — can be a lifelong pursuit. Persistence, consistency, and discipline are required. Without these, our learning is but forth without substance. There are no shortcuts. The fruit of these seemingly dry qualities (which we prefer to admire in others) is the satisfaction of having tasted the fullness of completion, or the thrill of meeting a difficult challenge with success. Perhaps, though, our culture is in need of redefining what it means to study. If we can look at our chosen discipline or craft as an ongoing process rather than as a discrete accomplishment, the potential for learning can be infinite. With this attitude we may find ourselves treating even the most mundane discovery with wide-eyed wonder and joy.6Risk-Taking Why is it, then, that so few people live up to their true potential? Beyond the well-paved roads and secure structures we usually build for ourselves lie demons, unsure footing — and unfelt pleasures. To be a student is to take risks. Yet most education discourages people from venturing far enough to take ris ks to make mistakes. “Children enter school as question marks and leave as periods,” observes educator Neil Postman. What kind of punctuation mark do you represent? Do you find yourself looking for tidy answers that give you a feeling of security? By learning to find the one right answer, we may have relinquished our ability to find other answers and solutions. We learn, then, not to put ourselves into situations where we might fail, because failure has tremendous social stigma. When we try different approaches and do things that have no precedence in our experience, we will surely make mistakes. A creative person uses these “failure” as stepping stones.III.

Translate the following passage into Chinese.(20%)About three years ago, my wife and I felt fed up with the hustle and bustle in the big city, so we decided to settle down in a small town, which is sedate and pleasant. We enjoy our life, for it is an easy place to go about one’s business on foot. I often walk around and when in the mood, I stop at the café for a drink or at the Continental Theater for a play. But some people seem not to understand my eccentric behavior. I prefer to walk whenever possible, which is beyond most of them, for they depend on cars too heavily. Sometimes it’s almost ludicrous that they choose to drive even if it is only a ten minutes’ walk. They may ask me if I need a ride in their cars when I’m strolling alone. However, I believe that the car is the death of legs. In this society, the majority dominates. I realize that I’m possibly the only person to entertain the notion o f covering a short distance on foot and it’s why I sometimes find myself in trouble now and then. For instance, many stores have cleared the grounds right before them for shoppers to park cars, for what they care about is but commercial triumph.大约三年前,我和我妻子对大城市的嘈杂生活感到厌倦,因此,决定在一个小镇落户,那里安静宜人。

A noted scientist, Ellsworth Huntington (1876—1947), concluded from other men’s work and his own among peoples in different climates that climate the temperature have a definite effect on your mental abilities.He found that cool weather is much more favorable forcreative thinking than is summer heat. This does not mean that all people are less intelligent in the summer than they are during the rest of the year. It does mean, however, that the mental abilities of large numbers of people tend to be lowest in the summer.Spring appears to be the best period of the year for thinking. One reason may be that in the spring man’s mental abilities are affected by the same factors that bring about great changes in all nature. Fall is the next-best season, then winter.

Every success I know has been achieved because the person was able to analyze defeat and actually profit by it in his next undertaking. Confuse defeat with failure, and you are doomed indeed to failure, for it isn’t defeat that makes you fail: it is your own refusal to see in defeat the guide and encouragement to success.Defeats are nothing to be ashamed of. They are routine incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it without feeling ashamed, analyze it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to cure its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success, but nothing else can arouse within us such a compelling desire to succeed. If you let a baby grasp a rod and try to pull it away, he will cling more and more tightly until his whole weight is suspended. It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you fully use the power which defeat gives, you can accomplish with it far more than what you are capable of.1.The author ____D____ .A、orders you to analyze defeatB、wants you to face defeatC、advises you to let a baby grasp a rodD、warns you not to confuse defeat with fail2.Defeat is valuable ___C____ .A、because it is a factorB、because it isn’t defeat that makes you failC、because it provides the guide andencouragement to successD、because it is not a thing to be ashamed of3.What does the author know? __B_____ .A、he knows every success in lifeB、he knows the factor making for successC、he knows every man who is able to analyze defeatD、he knows the life of every man4.The person who was able to analyze the defeat is likely ____C___ .A、to be a successorB、to face it with feeling ashamedC、to achieve successD、to be ashamed of it5.What does the author advise one to do with the power which defeat gives?
