DeepMind is one of the leading artificial intelligence (AI) panies in the world. The potential of this work applied to healthcare is very great, but it could also lead to further concentration of power in the tech giants. It Is against that background that the information missioner, Elizabeth Denham, has issued her damning verdict against the Royal Free hospital trust under the NHS, which handed over to DeepMind the records of 1.6 million patients In 20XX on the basis of a vague agreement which took far too little account of the patients' rights and their expectations of privacy.DeepMind has almost apologized. The NHS trust has mended its ways. Further arrangements- and there may be many-between the NHS and DeepMind will becarefully scrutinised to ensure that all necessary permissions have been asked of patients and all unnecessary data has been cleaned. There are lessons about informed patient consent to learn. But privacy is not the only angle in this case and not even the most important. Ms Denham chose to concentrate theblame on the NHS trust, since under existing law it “controlled” the data and DeepMind merely “processed" it. But this distinction misses thepoint that it is processing and aggregation, not the mere possession of bits, that gives the data value.The great question is who should benefit from the analysis of all the data that our lives now generate. Privacy law builds on the concept of damage to an individual from identifiable knowledge about them. That misses the way the surveillance economy works. The data of an individual there gains its value only when it is pared with the data of countless millions more.The use of privacy law to curb the tech giants in this instance feels slightly maladapted. Thispractice does not address the real worry. It is not enough to say that the algorithms DeepMind developswill benefit patients and save lives. What matters is that they will belong to a private monopoly which developed them using public resources. If software promises to save lives on the scale that dugs now can, big data may be expected to behave as a big pharm has done. We are still at the beginning of thisrevolution and small choices now may turn out to have gigantic consequences later. A long struggle will be needed to avoid a future of digital feudalism. Ms Denham's report is a wele start.31.Wha is true of the agreement between the NHSand DeepMind ?[A] It caused conflicts among tech giants.[B] It failed to pay due attention to patient’s rights.[C] It fell short of the latter's expectations[D] It put both sides into a dangerous situation.32. The NHS trust responded to Denham's verdict with[A] empty promises.[B] tough resistance.[C] necessary adjustments.[D] sincere apologies.33.The author argues in Paragraph 2 that[A] privacy protection must be secured at all costs.[B] leaking patients' data is worse than selling it.[C] making profits from patients' data is illegal.[D] the value of data es from the processing of it34.According to the last paragraph, the real worry arising from this deal is[A] the vicious rivalry among big pharmas.[B] the ineffective enforcement of privacy law.[C] the uncontrolled use of new software.[D] the monopoly of big data by tech giants.35.The author's attitude toward the application of AI to healthcare is[A] ambiguous.[B] cautious.[C] appreciative.[D] contemptuous.阅读理解真题考研英语2Text 3The rough guide to marketing success used to be that you got what you paid for. No longer. While traditional “paid” media – such as television mercials and print advertisements – still play a major role, panies today can exploit manyalternative forms of media. Consumers passionate about a product may create “owned” media by sending e-mail alerts about products and sales to customers registered with its Web site. The way consumers now approach the broad range of factors beyond conventional paid media.Paid and owned media are controlled by marketers promoting their own products. For earned media ,such marketers act as the initiator forusers‘ responses. But in some cases, onemarketer’s owned media bee another marketer‘s paid media – for instance, when an e-merce retailersells ad space on its Web site. We define such sold media as owned media whose traffic is so strong that other organizations place their content or e-merce engines within that environment. This trend ,which we believe is still in its infancy, effectively began with retailers and travel providers such as airlines and hotels and will no doubt go further. Johnson & Johnson, for example, has created BabyCenter, a stand-alone media property that promotes plementary and even petitive products. Besides generating ine, the presence of other marketers makes the site seem objective, gives panies opportunities to learn valuable information about the appeal of other panies’ marketing, and may help expand user traffic for all panies concerned.The same dramatic technological changes that have provided marketers with more (and more diverse) munications choices have also increased the risk that passionate consumers will voice their opinions in quicker, more visible, and much more damaging ways. Such hijacked media are the opposite of earned media: an asset or campaign bees hostage to consumers, other stakeholders, or activists who make negative allegations about a brand or product. Members of social networks, for instance, arelearning that they can hijack media to apply pressure on the businesses that originally created them.If that happens, passionate consumers would try to persuade others to boycott products, putting the reputation of the target pany at risk. In such a case,the pany‘s response may not be sufficiently quick or thoughtful, and the learning curve has been steep. Toyota Motor, for example, alleviated some of the damage from its recall crisis earlier this year with a relatively quick and well-orchestrated social-media response campaign, which included efforts to engage with consumers directly on sites such as Twitter and the social-news site Digg.31.Consumers may create “earned” media when they are[A] obscssed with online shopping at certain Web sites.[B] inspired by product-promoting e-mails sent to them.[C] eager to help their friends promote quality products.[D] enthusiastic about remending their favorite products.32. According to Paragraph 2,sold media feature[A] a safe business environment.[B] random petition.[C] strong user traffic.[D] flexibility in organization.33. The author indicates in Paragraph 3 that earned media[A] invite constant conflicts with passionate consumers.[B] can be used to produce negative effects in marketing.[C] may be responsible for fiercer petition.[D] deserve all the negative ments about them.34. Toyota Motor‘s experience is cited as an example of[A] responding effectively to hijacked media.[B] persuading customers into boycotting products.[C] cooperating with supportive consumers.[D] taking advantage of hijacked media.35. Which of the following is the text mainly about ?[A] Alternatives to conventional paid media.[B] Conflict between hijacked and earned media.[C] Dominance of hijacked media.[D] Popularity of owned media.阅读理解真题考研英语3Text 3Now utopia has grown unfashionable, as we have gained a deeper appreciation of the range of threats facing us, from asteroid strike to pandemic flu to climate change. You might even be tempted to assume that humanity has little future to look forward to.But such gloominess is misplaced. The fossil record shows that many species have endured for millions of years - so why shouldn't we? Take a broader look at our species' place in the universe, and it bees clear that we have an excellent chance of surviving for tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of years (see "100,000 AD: Living in the deep future"). Look up Homo sapiens in the IUCN's "Red List" of threatened species, and you will read: "Listed as Least Concern as the species is very widely distributed, adaptable, currently increasing, and there are no major threats resulting in an overall population decline."So what does our deep future hold? A growing number of researchers and organisations are now thinking seriously about that question. For example, the Long Now Foundation, based in San Francisco, has created a forum where thinkers and scientists are invited to project the implications of their ideas over very long timescales. Its flagship project is amechanical clock, buried deep inside a mountain in Texas, that is designed to still be marking time thousands of years hence.Then there are scientists who are giving serious consideration to the idea that we should recognise a new geological era: the Anthropocene. They, too, are pulling the camera right back and asking whathumanity's impact will be on the planet - in the context of stratigraphic time.Perhaps perversely, it may be easier to thinkabout such lengthy timescales than about the more immediate future. The potential evolution of today's technology, and its social consequences, isdazzlingly plicated, and it's perhaps best left to science-fiction writers and futurologists to explore the many possibilities we can envisage. That's one reason why we have launched Arc, a new publication dedicated to the near future.But take a longer view and there is a surprising amount that we can say with considerable assurance.As so often, the past holds the key to the future: we have now identified enough of the long-term patterns shaping the history of the planet, and our species,to make evidence-based forecasts about the situations in which our descendants will find themselves.This long perspective makes the pessimistic viewof our prospects seem more likely to be a passing fad. To be sure, the future is not all rosy: while ourspecies may flourish, a great many individuals may not. But we are now knowledgeable enough to mitigate many of the risks that threatened the existence of earlier humans, and to improve the lot of those to e. Thinking about our place in deep time is a good wayto focus on the challenges that confront us today, and to make a future worth living in.31. Our vision of the future used to be inspired by[A] our desire for ares of fulfillment[B] our faith in science and teched[C] our awareness of potential risks[D] our bdief in equal opportunity32. The IUCN“Rod List”suggest that human beings on[A] a sustained species[B] the word’s deminant power[C] a threat to the environment[D] a misplaced race33. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 5?[A] Arc helps limit the scope of futurological studies.[B] Technology offers solutions to social problem.[C] The interest in science fiction is on the rise.[D] Our Immediate future is hard to conceive.34. To ensure the future of mankind, it is crucial to[A] explore our planet’s abundant resources.[B] adopt an optimistic view of the world.[C] draw on our experience from the past.[D] curb our ambition to reshape history.35. Which of the following would be the best title for the text?[A] Uncertainty about Our Future[B] Evolution of the Human Species[C] The Ever-bright Prospects of Mankind.[D] Science, Technology and Humanity.阅读理解真题考研英语4Text 3The US$3-million Fundamental physics prize is indeed an interesting experiment, as Alexander Polyakov said when he accepted this year’s award in March. And it is far from the only one of its type. As a News Feature article in Nature discusses, astring of lucrative awards for researchers havejoined the Nobel Prizes in recent years. Many, like the Fundamental Physics Prize, are funded from the telephone-number-sized bank accounts of Internet entrepreneurs. These benefactors have succeeded in their chosen fields, they say, and they want to use their wealth to draw attention to those who have succeeded in science.What’s not to like? Quite a lot, according to a handful of scientists quoted in the News Feature. You cannot buy class, as the old saying goes, and these upstart entrepreneurs cannot buy their prizes the prestige of the Nobels, The new awards are an exercise in self-promotion for those behind them, say scientists. They could distort the achievement-based system of peer-review-led research. They could cement the status quo of peer-reviewed research. They do not fund peer-reviewed research. They perpetuate the myth of the lone genius.The goals of the prize-givers seem as scattered as the criticism.Some want to shock, others to draw people into science, or to better reward those who have made their careers in research.As Nature has pointed out before, there are some legitimate concerns about how science prizes—both new and old—are distributed. The Breakthrough Prize in Life Sciences, launched this year, takes an unrepresentative view of what the life sciences include.But the Nobel Foundation’s limit of threerecipients per prize, each of whom must still be living, has long been outgrown by the collaborative nature of modern research—as will be demonstrated by the inevitable row over who is ignored when it es to acknowledging the discovery of the Higgs boson. The Nobels were, of course,themselves set up by a very rich individual who had decided what he wanted to do with his own money. Time, rather than intention, has given them legitimacy.As much as some scientists may plain about the new awards, two things seem clear. First, most researchers would accept such a prize if they were offered one. Second, it is surely a good thing that the money and attention e to science rather than go elsewhere, It is fair to criticize and question the mechanism—that is the culture of research, after all—but it is the prize-givers’ money to do with as they please. It is wise to take such gifts with gratitude and grace.31.The Fundamental Physical Prize is seen as[A]a sy mbol of the entrepreneurs’s wealth.[B]a possible replacement of the Nobel Prize.[C]an example of bankers’ investment.[D]a handsome reward for researchers.32.The phrase “to sign on”(Line 3,Para.2) most probably means[A]the profit-oriented scientists.[B]the founders of the new award.[C]the achievement-based system.[D]peer-review-led research.33.What promoted the chancellor to develop his scheme?[A]controversies over the recipients’ status.[B]the joint effort of modern researchers.[C]legitimate concerns over the new prize.[D]the demonstration of research findings.34.According to Paragraph 3, being unemployed makes one one feel[A]Their endurance has done justice to them.[B]Their legitimacy has long been in dispute.[C]They are the most representative honor.[D]History has never cast doubt on them.35.To which of the following would the author most probably agree?[A]acceptable despite the criticism.[B]harmful to the culture of research.[C]subject to undesirable changes.[D]unworthy of public attention.。
20XX年全国硕士研究生入学统一考试(英语二)试题Text1The longest bull run in a century of art-market history ended on a dramatic note with a sale of 56 works by Damien Hirst, “Beautiful Inside My Head Forever”, at Sotheby’s in London on September 15th 2008 (see picture). All but two pieces sold, fetching more than £70m, a record for a sale by a single artist. It was a last hurrah. As the auctioneer called out bids, in New York one of the oldest banks on Wall Street, Lehman Brothers, filed for bankruptcy.The world art market had already been losing momentum for a while after rising vertiginously since 2003. At its peak in 2007 it was worth some $65 billion, reckons Clare McAndrew, founder of Arts Economics, a research firm-double the figure five years earlier. Since then it may have come down to $50 billion. But the market generates interest far beyond its size because it brings together great wealth, enormous egos, greed, passion and controversy in a way matched by few other industries.In the weeks and months that followed Mr Hirst’s sale, spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable, especially in New York, where the bail-out of the banks coincided with the loss of thousands of jobs and the financial demise of many art-buying investors. In the art world that meant collectors stayed away from galleries and salerooms. Sales of contemporary art fell by two-thirds, and in the most overheated sector-for Chinese contemporary art-they were down by nearly 90% in the year to November 2008. Within weeks the world’s two biggest auctio n houses, Sotheby’s and Christie’s, had to pay out nearly $200m in guarantees to clients who had placed works for sale with them.The current downturn in the art market is the worst since the Japanese stopped buying Impressionists at the end of 1989, a move that started the most serious contraction in the market since the second world war. This time experts reckon that prices are about 40% down on their peak on average, though some have been far more volatile. But Edward Dolman, Christie’s chief executive, says: “I’m pretty confident we’re at the bottom.”What makes this slump different from the last, he says, is that there are still buyers in the market, whereas in the early 1990s, when interest rates were high, there was no demand even though many collecto rs wanted to sell. Christie’s revenues in the first half of 2009 were still higher than in the first half of 2006. Almost everyone who was interviewed for this special report said that the biggest problem at the moment is not a lack of demand but a lack of good work to sell. The three Ds-death, debt and divorce-still deliver works of art to the market. But anyone who does not have to sell is keeping away, waiting for confidence to return.21.In the first paragraph,Damien Hirst's sale was referred to as “a last victory”because ____.A.the art market hadwitnessed a succession of victoryiesB.the auctioneer finally got the two pieces at the highest bidsC.Beautiful Inside My Head Forever won over all masterpiecesD.it was successfully made just before the world financial crisis22.By saying “spending of any sort became deeply unfashionable”(Line 1-2,Para.3),the author suggests that_____ .A . collectors were no longer actively involved in art-market auctionsB .people stopped every kind of spending and stayed away from galleriesC.art collection as a fashion had lost its appeal to a great extentD .works of art in general had gone out of fashion so they were not worth buying23.Which of the following statements is NOT ture?A .Sales of contemporary art fell dramatically from 2007to 2008.B.The art market surpassed many other industries in momentum.C.The market generally went downward in various ways.D.Some art dealers were awaiting better chances to come.24.The three Ds mentioned in the last paragraph are ____A.auction houses ' favoritesB.contemporary trendsC.factors promoting artwork circulationD.styles representing impressionists25.The most appropriate title for this text could be ___A.Fluctuation of Art PricesB.Up-to-date Art AuctionsC.Art Market in DeclineD.Shifted Interest in ArtsText2I was addressing a small gathering in a suburban Virginia living room -- a women's group that had invited men to join them. Throughout the evening one man had been particularly talkative frequently offering ideas and anecdotes while his wife sat silently beside him on the couch. Toward the end of the evening I commented that women frequently complain that their husbands don't talk to them. This man quickly concurred. He gestured toward his wife and said "She's the talker in our family." The room burst into laughter; the man looked puzzled and hurt. "It's true" he explained. "When I come home from work I have nothing to say. If she didn't keep the conversation going we'd spend the whole evening in silence."This episode crystallizes the irony that although American men tend to talk more than women in public situations they often talk less at home. And this pattern is wreaking havoc with marriage.The pattern was observed by political scientist Andrew Hacker in the late '70s. Sociologist Catherine Kohler Riessman reports in her new book "Divorce Talk" that most of the women she interviewed -- but only a few of the men -- gave lack of communication as the reason for their divorces. Given the current divorce rate of nearly 50 percent that amounts to millions of cases in the United States every year -- a virtual epidemic of failed conversation.In my own research complaints from women about their husbands most often focused not on tangible inequities such as having given up the chance for a career to accompany a husband to his or doing far more than their share of daily life-support work like cleaning cooking social arrangements and errands. Instead they focused on communication: "He doesn't listen to me" "He doesn't talk to me." I found as Hacker observed years before that most wives want their husbands to be first and foremost conversational partners but few husbands share this expectation of their wives.In short the image that best represents the current crisis is the stereotypical cartoon scene of a man sitting at the breakfast table with a newspaper held up in front of his face while a woman glares at the back of it wanting to talk.26.What is most wives' main expectation of their husbands?A.Talking to them.B.Trusting them.C.Supporting their careers.D. Shsring housework.27.Judging from the context ,the phrase “wreaking havoc”(Line 3,Para.2)most probably means ___ .A generating motivation. B.exerting influence C.causing damage Dcreating pressure28.All of the following are true EXCEPT_______A.men tend to talk more in public tan womenB.nearly 50percent of recent divorces are caused by failed conversationC.women attach much importance to communication between couplesDa female tends to be more talkative at home than her spouse29.Which of the following can best summarize the mian idea of this text ?A.The moral decaying deserves more research by sociologists .B.Marriage break_up stems from sex inequalities.C.Husband and wofe have different expectations from their marriage.D.Conversational patterns between man and wife are different.30.In the following part immediately after this text,the author will most probably focuson ______A.a vivid account of the new book Divorce TalkB.a detailed description of the stereotypical cartoonC.other possible reasons for a high divorce rate in the U.S.D a brief introduction to the political scientist Andrew HackerTxet3over the past decade, many companies had perfected the art of creating automatic behaviors - habits - among consumers. These habits have helped companies earn billions of dollars when customers eat snacks, apply lotions and wipe counters almost without thinking, often in response to a carefully designed set of daily cues.“There are fundamental public health problems, like hand washing with soap, that remain killers only because we can’t figure out how to change people’s habits,” Dr. Curtis said. “We wanted to learn from private industry how to create new behavior s that happen automatically.”The companies that Dr. Curtis turned to - Procter & Gamble, Colgate-Palmolive and Unilever - had invested hundreds of millions of dollars finding the subtle cues in consumers’ lives that corporations could use to introduce new routines.If you look hard enough, you’ll find that many of the products we use every day - chewing gums, skin moisturizers, disinfecting wipes, air fresheners, water purifiers, health snacks, antiperspirants, colognes, teeth whiteners, fabric softeners, vitamins - are results of manufactured habits. A century ago, few people regularly brushed their teeth multiple times a day. Today, because of canny advertising and public health campaigns, many Americans habitually give their pearly whites a cavity-preventing scrub twice a day, often with Colgate, Crest or one of the other brands.A few decades ago, many people didn’t drink water outside of a meal. Then beverage companies started bottling the production of far-off springs,and now office workers unthinkingly sip bottled water all day long. Chewing gum, once bought primarily by adolescent boys, is now featured in commercials as a breath freshener and teeth cleanser for use after a meal. Skin moisturizers are advertised as part of morning beauty rituals,slipped in between hair brushing and putting on makeup.“Our products succeed when they become part of daily or weekly patterns,” said Carol Berning, a consumer psychologist who recently retired from Procter & Gamble, the company that sold $76 billion of Tide, C rest and other products last year. “Creating positive habits is a huge part of improving our consumers’ lives, and it’s essential to making new products commerciallyviable.”Through experiments and observation, social scientists like Dr. Berning have learned that there is power in tying certain behaviors to habitual cues through relentless advertising. As this new science of habit has emerged, controversies have erupted when the tactics have been used to sell questionable beauty creams or unhealthy foods.31.According to Dr.Curtis,habits like hand washing with soap________.[A] should be further cultivated [B] should be changed gradually[C] are deepiy rooted in history [D] are basically private concerns32.Bottled water,chewing gun and skin moisturizers are mentioned in Paragraph 5 so as to____[A] reveal their impact on people’habits[B] show the urgent need of daily necessities[C]indicate their effect on people’buying power[D]manifest the significant role of good habits33.which of the following does NOT belong to products that help create people’s habits?[A]Tide [B]Crest [C]Colgate [D]Unilver34.From the text wekonw that some of consumer’s habits are developed due to _____[A]perfected art of products [B]automatic behavior creation[C]commercial promotions [D]scientific experiments35.the author’sattitude toward the influence of advertisement on people’s habits is____[A]indifferent [B]negative [C]positive [D]biasedText4Many Americans regard the jury system as a concrete expression of crucial democratic values, including the principles that all citizens who meet minimal qualifications of age and literacy are equally competent to serve on juries; that jurors should be selected randomly from a representative cross section of the community; that no citizen should be denied the right to serve on a jury on account of race, religion, sex, or national origin; that defendants are entitled to trial by their peers; and that verdicts should represent the conscience of the community and not just the letter of the law. The jury is also said to be the best surviving example of direct rather than representative democracy. In a direct democracy, citizens take turns governing themselves, rather than electing representatives to govern for them.But as recently as in 1986, jury selection procedures conflicted with these democratic ideals. In some states, for example, jury duty was limited to persons of supposedly superior intelligence, education, and moral character. Although the Supreme Court of the United States had prohibited intentional racial discrimination in jury selection as early as the 1880 case of strauder v. West Virginia,the practice of selecting so-called elite or blue-ribbon juries provided a convenient way around this and other antidiscrimination laws.The system also failed to regularly include women on juries until the mid-20th century. Although women first served on state juries in Utah in 1898,it was not until the 1940s that a majority of states made women eligible for jury duty. Even then several states automatically exempted women from jury duty unless they personlly asked to have their names included on the jury list. This practice was justified by the claim that women were needed at home, and it kept juries unrepresentative of women through the 1960s.In 1968, the Congress of the United States passed the Jury Selection and Service Act, ushering in a new era of democratic reforms for the jury.This law abolished special educational requirements for federal jurors and required them to be selected at random from a cross section ofthe entire community. In the landmark 1975 decision Taylor v. Louisiana, the Supreme Court extended the requirement that juries be representative of all parts of the community to the state level. The Taylor decision also declared sex discrimination in jury selection to be unconstitutional and ordered states to use the same procedures for selecting male and female jurors.36.From the principles of theUS jury system,welearn that ______[A]both litcrate and illiterate people can serve on juries[B]defendants are immune from trial by their peers[C]no age limit should be imposed for jury service[D]judgment should consider the opinion of the public37.The practice of selecting so-called elite jurors prior to 1968 showed_____[A]the inadcquavy of antidiscrimination laws[B]the prevalent discrimination against certain races[C]the conflicting ideals in jury selection procedures[D]the weaking of its independence38.Even in the 1960s,women were seldom on the jury list in some states because_____[A]they were automatically banned by state laws[B]they fell far short of the required qualifications[C]they were supposed to perform domestic duties[D]they tended to evade public engagement39.After the Jury Selection and Service Act was passed.___[A]sex discrimination in jury selection was unconstitutional and had to be abolished[B]educational requirements became less rigid in the selection of federal jurors[C]jurors at the state level ought to be representative of the entire community[D]states ought to conform to the federal court in reforming the jury system40.in discussing the US jury system,the text centers on_______[A]its nature and problems[B]its characteristics and tradition[C]its problems and their solutions[D]its tradition and development。

A NEVER-ENDING flow of information is the lot of most professionals. Whether it comes in the form of lawyers' cases, doctors' patients or even journalists' stories, this information naturally gets broken up into pieces that can be tackled one at a time during the course of a given day. In theory, a decision made when handling one of these pieces should not have much, if any, impact on similar but unrelated subsequent decisions. Yet Uri Simonsohn of the University of Pennsylvania and Francesca Gino at Harvard report in Psychological Science that this is not how things work out in practice.Dr Simonsohn and Dr Gino knew from studies done in other laboratories that people are, on the whole, poor at considering background information when making individual decisions. At first glance this might seem like a strength that 1. grants the ability to make judgments which are unbiased by 2. external factors. 〔But in a world of quotas and limits—in other words, the world in which most professional people operate—the two researchers suspected that it was actually a weakness.在考试中命题老师删掉了 They speculated that an inability to consider the big 3. picture was leading decision-makers to be biased by the daily samples of information they were working with. 4. For example, they theorized that a judge 5. fearful of appearing too soft 7. on crime might be more likely to send someone to prison 8. if he had already sentenced five or six other defendants only to probation on that day. To 8. test this idea, they turned their attention to the university-admissions process. <Admissions officers interview hundreds of applicants every year, at a rate of 4% a day, and can offer entry to about 40% of them在试卷中删掉了>. In theory, the 9. success of an applicant should not depend on the few others 10. chosen randomly for interview during the same day, but Dr Simonsohn and Dr Gino suspected the truth was 11. otherwise.They studied the results of 9,323 MBA interviews 12. conducted by 31 admissions officers. The interviewers had 13. rated applicants on a scale of one to five. This scale 14. took numerous factors into consideration, including communication skills, personal drive, team-working ability and personal accomplishments. The scores from this rating were 15 then used in conjunction with an applicant's score on the Graduate Management Admission Test, or GMAT, a standardized exam which is 16. marked out of 800 points, to make a decision on whether to accept him or her.Dr Simonsohn and Dr Gino discovered that their hunch was right. If the score of the previous candidate in a daily series of interviewees was 0.75 points or more higher than that of the one 17. before that, then the score for the next applicant would 18. drop by an average of 0.075 points. This might sound small, but to 19. undo the effects of such a decrease a candidate would need 30 more GMAT points than would otherwise have been 20. necessary.<最后一段命题老师没有选用>As for why people behave this way, Dr Simonsohnproposes that after accepting a number of strong candidates, interviewers might form the illogical expectation that a weaker candidate "is due". Alternatively, he suggests that interviewers may be engaging in mental accounting that simplifies the task of maintaining a given long-term acceptance rate, by trying to apply this rate to each daily group of candidates. Regardless of the reason, if this sort of thinking proves to have a similar effect on the judgments of those in other fields, such as law and medicine, it could be responsible for far worse things than the rejection of qualified business-school candidates.二、20XX考研英语阅读理解Part A 文章命题来源Text 1第一篇文章出自 2012年6月21日Business-week 上的一篇文章,文章有一定难度。

Then mark your answer on ANSWER I by blackening the corresponding letter in the brackets with a pencil.(40 )Passage 1During the past four decades the fishery scientist of the West have studies namics of fish populations with the objective of determining the relation n the amount of fishing and the sustainable catch. They have developed a ntial body of theory that has been applied successfully to a large number mal populations and has led to a major improvement in the management of someof the major marine fisheries.The theory has been developed for single species populations with man a predator. Much of it is based on the Darwinian concept of a constant pulation of young that is reduced by density dependent mortality resulting ntraspecific competition. The unfished population tends toward a maximum brium size with a relatively high proportion of large, old individuals. As g increased and natural mortality is reduced, death from fishing eventually the place of most natural mortality. If the amount of fishing is increased ch, the indivduals will tend to be taken before realizing their potential , and total yield will be reduced. The maximum sustainable yields can be taken intermediate population size that in some populations is about one thirdthe unfished population size.G.V.Nikolskii, of Moscow State University, develops his theory from a ent approach. He is non Darwinian and is(he says)a nonmathematician; rather nsiders himself as ecologist and morphologist. He argues that Darwins's ept of constant overpopulation has led to the neglect of the problem of ting spawns and young fish. He argues also that Darwin's concept of a variety incipient species have led to extensive mathematical analysis of racial acters. Nikolskii considers the main laws of population dynamics to be ned with the succession of generations; their birth, growth, and death. The s are governed by the relative rates of adaptaton and environmental change. ss and age structure of a population are the result of adaptation to the food . The mass and age structure of a population are the result of adaptation food supply. The rate of growth of individuals, the time of sexual maturity, e accumulation of reserves vary according to the food supply. These factors n influence the success of reproduction in ways that tend to bring the size of the population into balance with its food supply.Nikolskill theorizes that fish population is controlled mainly by the _____ . of the fish caught within a speciesal characteristics of the speciesnt of food available to the speciesh rate within a speciesThe author indicates the main difference between the theories of Darwin andkii is the _____ .ct of food supply on the size of the fishamount of fish that can be harvestedods used to catch fishe of population variation in fishThe theories based on the concepts of Darwin assume that fish population is lled mainly by the _____ .of the fish caught within a speciesnt of fishing pressure of the speciesal characteristics of the speciesexpectancy within the speciesThe researchers discussed in the passage were mainly concerned with _____ . ies of fish faced with extinctionecology of fishingeffects of pollution on fishingercial fishingPassage 2There are people in Italy who can't stand soccer. Not all Canadians love .A similar situation exists in America, where there are those individuals y be one of them who yawn or even frown when somebody mentions baseball. all to them means boring hours watching grown men in funny tight outfitsng around in a field staring away while very little of anything happens. They ou it's a game better suited to the 19th century slow,quiet, gentlemanly. are the same people you may be one of them who love football because there's the sport that glorifies “the hit”.By contrast, baseball seems abstract, cool, silent, still.On TV the game is fractured into a dozen perspectives, replays, close . The geometry of the game, however, is essential to understanding it. You ontemplate the game from one point as a painter does his subject; you may, rse, project yourself into the game. It is in this projection that the game rds so much space and time for involvement. The TV won't do it for you.Take, for example, the third baseman. You sit behind the third base dugout u watch him watching home plate. His legs are apart, knees flexed. His arms oose. He does a lot of this. The skeptic still cannot think of any other sports ll, so passive. But watch what happens every time the pitcher (投手) throws; ird baseman goes up on his toes, flexes his arms or bring the glove to a point nt of him, takes a step right or left, backward or forward, perhaps he glances the field to check his first baseman's position. Suppose the pitch is a ball. “Nothing happened,”you say.“I could have had my eyes closed.”The skeptic and the innocent must play the game. And this involvement in ands is no more intellectual than listening to music is. Watch the third n. Smooth the dirt in front of you with one foot; smooth the pocket in your watch the eyes of the batter, the speed of the bat, the sound of horsehided. If football is a symphony (交响乐) of movement and theatre, baseball is er (室内)music, a spacious interlocking of notes, chores and responses. The passage is mainly concerned with _____ .different tastes of people for sportsdifferent characteristics of sportsattraction of footballattraction of baseballThose who don't like baseball may complain that _____ .is only to the taste of the oldinvolves fewer players than footballis not exciting enoughis pretentious and looks funnyThe author admits that _____ .eball is too peaceful for the youngeball may seem boring when watched on TVtball is more attracting than baseballeball is more interesting than footballWe can safely conclude that the author _____ .es footballes footballes baseballes baseballPassage 3Aleister Growley is probably considered to be the most infamous Black an of the 20th century although, in fact, he was not a Black Magician and claimed to be. He practiced his own form of magic which only partly resembled tes of devil worshippers, and it was certainly not performed for the sameends.Rather than worshipping God, the devil, or anything else, Crowley devised ligion” with himself as a saviour showing the people the way to freedom h their own“true will”.In other words, he said, people should throw off nstraints and conventions and gain control of themselves and others throughtheir own will power.In his famous books,“Magic in Theory and Practice”,Crowley explains what is, namely, a technique of making nature obey man's will by capturing natural through speaking the appropriate words and performing the correct actions. is must be done while in the right state of mind: a state that Crowley oftenproduced by the use of drugs.His experiments with various drugs were to have serious consequences and time he was in his thirties he was taking too much heroin. At the end of fe he was taking a massive daily does of 11 grammes, enough to kill a roomfulple. It was only his extraordinary physical strength and conditioning through years, that stopped it being fatal. Rather ironically, considering his ssive intake of drugs, Crowley died of natural causes at the age of 72.Opinion has always been sharply divided about him, for as well as being confessed magician, Crowley also painted, wrote plays, stories and poetry. ee him as a clever but misguided man, while others ,especially after the dals attached to his life at Cefalu in Cicily, view him as truly evil. Through the doctrine of “true will”,Crowley encouraged people to _____ . re the normal moralityfreedom through self worshiprol everything by will powernt a new unconventional religionH ow is magic defined in“Magic in Theory and Practice”?means of acquiring a certain state of mind.technique of speaking and acting in a certain way.form of natural power gained through using drugs.way of subduing natural laws by will power.What kind of person was Crowley?seeking and violent.ng willed and dissatisfied.and weak willed.ng willed and determined.Why didn't the large amounts of heroin taken by Growley prove fatal?ook too large a dose for it to be fatal.id not take enough to kill a man of his size.ad conditioned his body not to die.ad accustomed his body to large dosage.Passage 4I have yet to witness one example just one of compliance on the part of people who have the power to move those little thermostat buttons.Don't theyknow about the fuel shortage?The subways are too hot.Heat pours out of the vents.People stand bumper per breathing hotly down each other's necks with their heavy winter coats sweating.The subways could probably be heated by body heat alone.Why is itstill August down there?Department stores are too hot.The customers are wearing those same heavy coats.Even if you take your coat off,it's still too hot,and then you've got to lug your coat around as well as all the holiday packages.My apartment is too hot.Even with the radiators turned off steam pours out ry nook and cranny.It's a bit ludicrous that I go running around turning off to save electricity while I'm wearing shorts and my windows are wide open.Museums are too hot.Movies are too hot.Buses are too hot.This morning theAvenue bus was so hot that everybody was opening the windows.And it was rainingout.Better wet than hot.And now I sit sweating in my office.The heat is on,and so is the air conditioning,but even that doesn't help.I think ordinary people are willing to make sacrifices.All the ordinary I know are cutting down on electricity and gas.I am sure the ordinary peoplewould be willing to conserve sweat,too.But the ordinary people,unfortunately,don't have power over thethermostat.In this passage,the author _____ .calling for the saving of energytalking about the earth's greenhouse effectcomplaining about the crowdedness of public placesresses dissatisfaction with urban lifeThe author lists so many places in order to make clear the idea that _____ .e public places are too hot to work inrgy used for heating can be saved in some placese in big cities is rather unpleasantlic places should be better air conditionedBy saying that“?ordinary people would be willing to conserve sweat,too”third sentence in paragraph 7),the author really means that ordinary people.ld agree to turn off power where possiblefer winter to summer't like hot placeswilling to give up a comfortable lifeThe tone of the passage is one of _____ .plaintpairuasionicismPassage 5Increasingly, the development of tourism is seen to have an effect on the nment. Erosion is one problem. The steps and stones of major popular sites Shakespeare's birthplace or Stonehenge are literally being worn away by ns of foreign feet. The remedy in the case of Britain's best known prehistoric nt has been to use railings to keep visitors at a distance. Such measures rdly be adopted in the house of the Bard, however, where tourists want toenter the actual building.Overcrowding in cities, towns and villages is another problem. Traffic jams outcome. In narrow roads, tourist vehicles cause congestion. Local traders sidents cannot get around to do their work. Car parks fill up, so strangersheir cars where they can;in streets, across gateways, in lay bys, or even vate driveways. This causes obstruction. The sheer weights of incomers can azard.Thus Venice, a city built for half a million inhabitants, is swollen ther half million who populate the city daily in the tourist season eight n visits each year.The mayor recently decided to limit visitors to 90 000a day: the only way to save the city from inundation.Pollution is a further consequence. The Lakes are popular for people who watersports, such as waterskiing , power boat racing and swimming, but boats ewage directly into the water. Facilities can be provided to prevent this happening, but this is costly. There are also problems with litter.The threat to wildlife habitats is yet another result. Tourists around the destroy vegetation. This is harmful to animals which build their nests along ores. Wildlife refuges have been created which have helped protect these l sites. On the Greek island of Zakinthos, the breeding beaches of the rare oggerhead turtle are being threatened by tourist disturbance. Local vationists try to monitor and protect the turtles but they have been attacked angry owners of taverns and hotels who make lucrative profits from bars or g sunbeds and umbrellas. Government compensation payments for the loss ofbusiness might be the anwser,but this would be costly.Which of the following statements best summarizes the main idea of the e?development of tourism has brought about environmental problems.rism should not develop at the cost of the environmental destruction. sures taken to protect the environment prove to be ineffective.rism is developing for the sole purpose of making money.As a result of overdevelopment of tourism, Venice _____ .overcrowded with carsoverloadedworn awaybadly pollutedParagraph 3 points out that the Lakes _____ .e too many boats on themovercrowded on the beachespolluted by wastesno longer attractiveOn the island of Zakinthos, measures to protect the turtles meet resistance y for _____ .itical reasonsnomic reasonsironmental reasonselopmental reasonsP art IV English-Chinese Translationions:Read the following passage carefully and then translate the underlined sentences into Chinese(15 points)The sudden upthrust of warm,moist air into the terrible cold of the frozen s is what creates thunder.The sudden stronger rubbing together or two unlike es(very warm air against very cold air)develops a kind of electricity “static electricity”.Its charges produce lightning and thunder.(71) Thus olence of the thunderstorm is an almost direct result of millions of warm drops being thrown into compatable masses of ice crystals-hitting them,ing over them,melting them,or being frozen by them into snow or hail.Exactly how the electric charge is developed by the many and complex forces s battle of heat and cold is still a matter of opinion.Some scientists think tion of wind against the rain is the principal factor.(72) These scientists e the wind tears off the outer surface of each falling drops,like pulling ter over a child's head,making a fine nagative charge while leaving the main f the raindrop positive. Other scientists believe that the friction of snow ls breaking in the wind sets up the electrical charge.In reality it may well be all these factors-and more-that combine to do the work.(73) In any case,huge masses of electrically charged raindrops and ones become sorted into positive and negative reserves of electrical energy ferent parts of the thundercloud,creating between them fields of very greates. When the resistance between these fields breaks down,the energy that is suddenly discharged is lightning.I do not know of any case of lightning directly causing an airplane ent,Cattle and sheep are more likely to be struck by lightning than are nes or houses.There is a recorded case that occurred on a mountainside in stern part of the United States in which one bolt of lightning killed 835 (74) Evidently the hard,dry earth offered more resistance to the lightning he route of traveling from the ground,up one leg of an animal,through its moist body,and down another leg.A person's chances of being killed by a thunderstorm are not very great.In United States an average of one person in 265000 dies as a result of a rstorm.Today's houses,ships,airplanes,and electric power lines are well cted against lightning,and the risk is decreasing.Even a man whose work s him almost daily to lightning can do something about it.(75) Despite the that one never knows if lightning strikes him,a person can sometimes feel he bolt coming and,if quick enough,take protective action in time.Part V Writing (15 points)Directions:t the following table and analyze what types of library materials are neededby different people.Materials used at public libraryBased on library visitors aged 18 and older.关于在职人员申请硕士研究生学位英语模拟试题(5)请查看共享天下考研论坛上一篇:哈尔滨工程大学20XX 年数据结构考研笔记 下一篇:在职人员申请硕士研究生学位英语模拟试题(4)[推荐] [返回顶部] [打印本页] [关闭窗口]。

拓展阅读:考研英语一考试答题技巧考研英语分为两个阶段,考场之上最忌“抢答”首先要做好答题前的预备:正式开头答题前几分钟,同学们就会拿到英语试卷。
从考试要求来说,正式考试开头之前,是肯定不允许动笔答题的。
这时,首先要快速地整体扫瞄一下试卷,大致推断一下对于自己来说试卷的难度。
这里要特殊留意留意两个部分:一是阅读理解,通过语篇词汇和话题,感觉一下难度,同时要确定哪几篇是自己感觉能读懂和要尽力全部答对的,哪些可能单从语篇词汇就超出了自己的力量,不能“硬攻”,而更要讲究答题技巧的;二是看一看书面表达题目,大致勾画出一篇文章结构,特殊是想一想需要使用的词汇,有哪些就在脑子里,哪些一时想不起来。
对于这样的词,可以随着答题进程,借助试卷信息得到提示。
不要“长”答,要合理安排答题时间在第一个阶段的'英语考试中,掌握好答题节奏,合理利用时间,这一点特别重要。
阅读理解部分由于语篇多,词汇量和阅读量都大,因此比较耗时,但千万不能在这里“恋战”。
英语复习方法英语复习方法通用15篇英语复习方法1在写作文前,一定要仔细审题。
看清楚题目要求,确定内容要点,在此基础上尽可能用所学过的词汇和语法结构,使语言更具有多样性、准确性、逻辑性,行文连贯性和语言连续性,并准确运用时态和语态,还要注意单词拼写的正确性。
写完之后,一定要对所写文章通读一遍,检查错误,加以改正。
另外在平日的阅读中,就要积累和背诵一些美的、好的、精彩的句子或短文,为自己准备一个资料库。
当写作需要时,信手拈来,既快捷,又准确。
更重要的是要把老师近期的每一篇命题作文,都精心修改,使其成为上等作文。
以便于在考场上可以根据实际情况,进行迁移。
千万不要到考场上去现想一篇作文,那种情况是不会写出好文章来的。
在写作文时还要注意以下几点:1.观察题目和情景所提供的内容分析、提炼要点,理顺要点。
概括考题所要求表达的全部意思。
2.综合运用各项英语基础知识灵活运用词汇和句型,正确地用词造句,连句成文,进行有效的信息表达与传递。
3.认真思考,选择正确的表达形式正确使用结构词和过渡句,使表达内容连贯。
4.书写要工整,要清楚好的书写会给判卷老师留下良好的印象,在短暂的判卷过程中很有可能因为漂亮的书写而给予考生高分。
英语复习方法21. 词汇:词汇是组成大厦的基石,词汇量的多少标志着你的水平。
扩大词汇量的好是:把阅读材料中以及练习题的生词和短语全都标出,在字典中查一遍,注上音标,注解和典型用法。
但是,还有几十天就要的情况下,有些同学如果单词还没有过关,这里有个建议。
时的那份词汇表,包括了高考要考的所有词汇。
在最后阶段,大家可以将词汇表从头到尾背3-4遍。
首先把词汇表过一遍,熟悉和简单的一带而过。
重点放在不熟悉的和重要的词汇上。
把不熟悉的单词一定用特殊颜色的笔记号下来,然后下次专门反复阅读。
而重要的词汇就是你在中经常见到,而又一知半解的词汇。
这些词汇一定要用字典认真查出,加以。

我们在进行考研英语的复习预备时,需要把大作文的留意事项了解清晰。我为大家细心预备了考研英语大作文的指南攻略,欢迎大家前来阅读。 考研英语大作文的小事不行忽视 一、 词数 20xx考研英语(一)大纲明确规定,考生能写出约160-200词的短文。 发现这个要求,有同学们认为大作文的词数最多不超过200个,这种想法当然不错,也完全符合大纲的要求,但要想自己的作文拿到18、19分甚至满分,唯恐还要写长一些。据笔者对04--13年英语(一)大作文的高分范文讨论发觉,这些范文的词数全部在200词以上,词数最少的一篇范文也有202词,最多的一篇范文词数竟达到298个,其余8年都在250词左右。同学们,由此我们可以知道,假如想让自己的大作文脱颖而出(当然内容全面,句型丰富,词汇出彩,语法错误少都是必要的条件),字数达到甚至超过大纲规定的词数也是特别有必要的,因此我们把文章写长一些吧,肯定错不了。详细一篇大作文要写多少词才合适,各位同学,你应当能从我们万学海文对近十年大作文范文的词数讨论中发觉答案了吧。所以,假如在平常的写作练习中你的作文词数在200个以下,那你就要努力把作文写长了。可以通过举例论证、因果论证、正反论证等多种方法把作文写长,让其变得更加丰富饱满,有理有据。总之,字数不够肯定会扣分,字数充分肯定会增加印象分。 二、书写 提示各位同学:书写务必工整,字号大小适中。依据多年辅导阅历发觉,有的作文虽然卷面洁净,字迹清楚,但是字号太小,这让那些阅卷很多的老师感觉特殊吃力,一瞬间,对该作文的印象就不太好了,这势必会影响分数。有些同学字写得比较大,这一方面便利了阅卷老师批阅,但是这大字号可能会消失规定的答题区域不够用的状况,接着不得已写在旁边,旁边不够写还要写背面,这从另外一个层面给阅卷老师带来了麻烦,这样的卷面也肯定会影响印象分。所以,建议大家平常练习写作的时候就要留意字不要写的过小或过大,大小要适中,这在肯定程度上为你的作文拿高分奠定了肯定的基础,所以请同学们肯定要留意这个问题。 考研英语作文长短句巧搭配精悍短语当亮点 一.明确作文要求,提高写作力量 一篇好的作文,要有一个主题思想,整篇作文应当是紧扣文章主题,遵循特定的文体格式,选用恰当的语言合理组织文章结构,内容统一、连贯,语法、拼写、标点正确,用词恰当。许多同学在预备英语写作时找不到方向,一味的想在考研英语写作上面抓分,却又不知道怎么样提高。杨老师在此特殊提示考生首先要学会抓住考研英语写作要领,尤其留意文章规律关系在阅读中的运用。规律关系散布在文章的句子内部、句句之间、以及段落之间。最基本的规律关系有以下几种: 1、因果关系:as a result ,therefore,hence,consequently,because, for, due to, hence, consequently等等。 2、并列、递进关系:and, or, then,in addition,besides,in other words,moreover等等 3、转折关系:however,but, yet, in fact等等。 这些其实是已经很熟识的规律提示词在文章中起的效果,并非仅仅是连接文章的句子,从阅读的角度来看,其实同时在给我们某种提示,告知我们哪些句子是有效信息,相对重要的信息,哪些信息是相对不重要的信息,由于我们在英语写作的时候,有一条清楚的思路,你不是为了完整翻译文章而进行阅读,而是为了猎取主旨来写作。 二、摆脱无话可说练习“三段式”思维 在英语作文写作时,无话可说的确让人比较头疼,无话可说是一个极端,有的考生题目看得懂,提纲也一目了然,就是不知道该说什么,在考场上头脑一片空白,想到的也只是空泛的东西,在考试过程当中,这会在很大程度上影响大家的做题效果和做题速度。当头脑消失空白时,应当从详细的、细小的、琐碎的、微不足道的事物所引发的思索变成观点,再进行论述。例如,领导讲话总是第一部分、、其次部分、第三部分…这样条理比较清晰。考官们看文章也必定要通过这些关键性的“标签”来判定你的文章是否结构清晰,条理自然。破解方法很简洁,只要把下面任何一组的词汇加入到你的几个要点前就清晰了。 1)first, second, third, last(不推举,缘由:俗) 2)firstly, secondly, thirdly, finally(不推举,缘由:俗) 3)the first, the second, the third, the last(不推举,缘由:俗) 4)in the first place, in the second place, in the third place,lastly(不推举,缘由:俗) 5)to begin with, then, furthermore, finally(剧烈推举) 6)to start with, next, in addition, finally(剧烈推举) 7)first and foremost, besides, last but not least(剧烈推举) 8)most important of all, moreover, finally 9)on the one hand, on the other hand(适用于两点的状况) 10)for one thing, for another thing(适用于两点的状况) 建议:不仅仅在写作中留意,平常说话的时候也应当条理清晰! 三、用词精确 保证语言连贯 考研英语写作中,同样是一篇作文,在没有语法、词汇等基础性错误的前提下,一个考生的句式平平,而另外一个考生的句式敏捷多变,特别美丽,毫无疑问,后者确定比前者的分数高。但写英语作文时最忌讳的是用一些模棱两可的词,表达不够精确 ,而且考试时要特殊留意语法、词语、语气、标点符号等,避开单词拼写错误、语法错误,不要为了追求词语的华丽而积累一些自己也没把握的单词,不要刻意追求长句而写一些自己不知对错的有多个从句组成的长句。建议考生考试时,最好选择自己最有把握的词汇、短语和句式。 许多考生习惯背诵模版,在写作文是喜爱套用背诵模版,但由于仓促,紧急等缘由,很简单犯一些简洁的错误,如语句不通。所以提示考生选材时切忌胡子眉毛一把抓,词语积累,不伦不类。前后及段落之间在规律关系上要紧密连接,不能把没有任何规律关系的词放在一起,可以用恰当的关联词把思想连贯的表达出来。总之,无论想要套用那个模版,前提都要保证语言通顺,文章思想连贯。此外,要有自己的style,一来通过背诵或讨论范文,把握考研英语作文的整体结构特点,以及写作格式,二来要在讨论范文的基础上查找自己的闪光点,比如闪光词汇。假如大家认真讨论真题,就会发觉,几乎全部的高分作文都有一个共同点,那就是都具有几个闪光词汇,这个词汇可能并不是什么高级词汇,但是你能把它的延长意,或者说你能把我它的一词多义,并且应用到你的文章中。 四、长短句巧搭配精悍短语当亮点 写作时,尤其是在考试时,假如使用短语,有两个好处:其一、用短语会使文章增加亮点,假如老师们 发现你的文章太简洁,看不到一个自己不熟悉的短语,必定会看你低一等。相反,假如发觉亮点—精彩的短语,那么你的文章定会得高分了。此外短小精辟的句子,也可以起到画龙点睛的作用。而且假如把短句放在段首或者段末,也可以揭示主题: As a creature, I eat; as a man, I read. Although one action is tomeet the primary need of my body and the other is to satisfy the intellectualneed of mind, they are in a way quite similar. 建议:在文章第一段(开头)用一长一短,且先长后短;在文章主体部分,要先用一个短句解释主要意思,然后在阐述几个要点的时候采纳先短后长的句群形式,定会让主体部分妙笔生辉!文章结尾一般用一长一短就可以了。 考研英语写作突破以语言为根本动身点 1. 大纲要求 写作A节(10分),要求考生依据所给情景写出约100词(标点符号不计算在内)的应用性短文,包括私人和公务信函、备忘录、报告等。写作B节(20分),要求考生依据提示信息写出一篇160-200词的短文。提示信息的形式有图画、图表或文字等。 A节的评分重点在于信息点的掩盖、内容的组织、语言的精确 性、格式及语域的恰当。对语法结构和词汇多样性的要求将依据详细试题作调整。允许在作文中使用提示语中消失过的个别关键词或词组,但使用提示语中消失过的句子将被扣分。B节作文的评分重点在其内容的完整性、文章的连贯性、语法结构和词汇的多样性及语言的精确 性。 2. 命题趋势 自2021年增加了小作文以来,信函写作在历年的考研英语应用文的考查中占主导地位,仅在2021年英语(一)中考查了通知,因此信函的考试预期仍旧很大,考生应把握书信的写作格式及各类信件的写作要领,同时要熟识其他应用文的写作格式。 依据20xx年大纲,20xx年的大作文从命题形式上看,还是考查图表和漫画作文;从命题内容上来看,今年的漫画或图表作文肯定还是个人品质、教育、文化,环境,人际关系、社会等话题;从体裁来讲,图表或图画作文大都是描写与谈论的综合,以谈论为主。 3. 备考策略 考生在前期复习中大多以阅读为主,我认为从现在开头,大家可以偏重一下写作,写作对于我们的得分有至关重要的作用,尤其是想要得高分的同学更应当重视写作,它对分数的拉动有更大的促进作用。

2014年考研英语阅读理解模拟题及答案
(十)
The poverty line is the minimum income that people need
for an acceptable standard of living. People with incomes below
the poverty line are considered poor. Economists study the causes
of poverty in order to find solutions to the problem.
As the general standard of living in the country rises, the
poverty line does, too. Therefore, even with today’s relatively high
standard of living, about 10 percent of the people in the United
States are below the poverty line. However, if these people had
stable jobs, they could have an acceptable standard of living.
Economists suggest several reasons why poor people do not have
jobs.
For one thing, more than half of the poor people in the
United States are not qualified to work. Over 40 percent of the
poor people are children. By law, children less than 16 years old
cannot work in many industries. A large number of poor people are
old. Many companies do not hire people over 65 years old, the
normal retirement age.
Some poor adults do not look for jobs for a variety of
personal reasons: they are sick, they do not have any
motivation(动力). they have family problems, or they do
notbelieve that they can find a job.
Other poor people look for a job but cannot find one.
Many poor adults never went to high school. Therefore, when they
look for jobs, they have few skills that they can offer.
At the present time, the government thinks it can reduce
poverty in the country in the following ways.
First, if the national economy grows, businesses and
industries hire more workers. Some of the poor who are qualified
to look for jobs may find employment. Then they will no longer be
below the poverty line.
Second, if society invests in the poor, the poor will become
more productive. If the government spends money on social
programs, education, and training for poor people, the poor will
have the skills to offer. Then it is more likely that they can find
jobs.
Finally, if the government distributes society’s income
differently, it raises some poor people above the poverty line. The
government collects taxes from the non-poor and gives money to
the poor. These payments to the poor are called welfare. In 1975
over 18 million people in the United States received welfare.
Some economists are looking for better solutions to the
poverty problem. However, at the present time, many people
depend on welfare for a minimally acceptable standard of living.
46. The author’s main purpose to write this article
is .
A) to define what the poverty line is
B) to explain why some people live the poverty line
C) to find solutions to the problem of poverty
D) to show sympathy for those poor people
47. Which of the following is NOT true?
A) Ten percent of the Americans live a poor life.
B) Poor people are those who love below the poverty line.
C) The poverty line rises as the general standard of living
rises.
D) The poverty line tends to be at the same level.
48. More than 40 percent of the poor people are children.
This is mainly because .
A) they do not have enough motivation
B) they are so young that they are deprived of chances to
work
C) they fail to get enough education
D) they are very poor in health
49. Most of the American poor people are not qualified for
employment because .
A) they to not have any motivation to work
B) they are not very self-confident
C) they are too young or too old to work
D) they have physical and family problems
50. We may conclude from the passage that .
A) better solutions to the poverty problem are not yet
found
B) welfare will enable people to be rich
C) poor people are bound to go out of the poverty line if
they have chances to do business
D) employment is the best solution to the poverty problem
