Comprehension(40points:2×20)Direction:There are four passages in this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D You are expected to make the best choice.Questions41to45are based on the following passage:Moral responsibility is all very well,but what about military orders?Is it not the soldier’s first duty to give instant obedience to orders given by his military superiors?And apart from duty,will not the soldier suffer severe punishment,even death,if he refuses to do what he is ordered to do?If,then,a soldier is told by his superior to burn this house or to shoot that prisoner,how can he be held criminally accountable on the ground that the burning or shooting was a violation of the laws of war?These are some of the questions that are raised by the concept commonly called“superior orders”, and its use as a defense in war crimes trials.It is an issue that must be as old as the laws of war themselves,and it emerged in legal guise over three centuries ago when,after the Stuart restoration in 1660,the commander of the guards at the trial and execution of Charles I was put on trial for treason and murder.The officer defended himself on the ground“that all he did was as a soldier,by the command of his superior officer whom he must obey or die,”but the court gave him short shrift,saying that“when the command is traitorous,then the obedience to that command is also traitorous.”Though not precisely articulated,the rule that is necessarily implied by this decision is that it is the soldier’s duty to obey lawful orders,but that he may disobey—and indeed must,under some circumstances—unlawful orders.Such has been the law of the United States since the birth of the nation.In1804,Chief Justice John Marshall declared that superior orders will justify a subordinate’s conduct only“if not to perform a prohibited act”,and there are many other early decisions to the same入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译effect.A strikingly illustrative case occurred in the wake of that conflict of which most Englishmen have never heard(although their troops burned the White House)and which we call the War of1812.Our country was badly split by that war too and,at a time when the United States Navy was not especially popular in New England,the ship-in-the-line Independence was lying in Boston Harbor.A pass-by directed abusive language at a marine standing guard on the ship,and the marine,Bevans by name,ran his bayonet through the man.Charged with murder,Bevans produced evidence that the marines on the Independence had been ordered to bayonet anyone showing them disrespect.The case was tried before Justice Joseph Story,next to Marshall,the leading judicial figure of those years,who charged that any such order as Bevans had invoked“would be illegal and void”,and,if given and put into practice,both the superior and the subordinate would be guilty of murder.In consequence,Bevans was convicted.The order allegedly given to Bevans was pretty drastic,and Boston Harbor was not a battlefield; perhaps it was not too much to expect the marine to realize that literal compliance might lead to bad trouble.But it is only too easy to conceive of circumstances where the matter might not be at all clear. Does the subordinate obey at peril that the order may later be ruled illegal,or is protected unless he has a good reason to doubt its validity?41.It can be inferred from Para.1that if a soldier obeys his superior’s order to burn a house or to kill aprisoner,________.A.he is right according to moral standardsB.he should not receive any punishmentC.he should certainly be liable for his actionD.he will be convicted according to the law of war42.What was the rule implied by the trail of the commander of the guards?A.A soldier must obey lawful orders,be he right or wrong.B.Even if an order is unlawful,the soldier must still obey it.C.A soldier may or must disobey unlawful orders or he must die.D.It is the soldier’s duty to obey superior orders whatever they are.43.The phrase“to the same effect”(Line6,Para.3)most probably means“which”________.A.are of the similar meaningB.have the same purposeC.must be put into effectD.lead to the same result44.According to the fourth paragraph,Bevans was found guilty because he________.A.obey illegal ordersB.was accused of murderC.disobeyed the superior ordersD.offended against the law of war45.It can be concluded from the last paragraph that the author’s attitude towards Bevans was______.A.bewilderingB.indignantC.approvingD.not quite sympathetic Questions46to50are based on the following passage:Americans today don’t place a very high value on intellect.Our heroes are athletes,entertainers, and entrepreneurs,not scholars.Even our schools are where we send our children to get a practical入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译education——not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge.Symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools aren’t difficult to find.“Schools have always been in a society where practical is more important than intellectual,”says education writer Diane Ravitch.“Schools could be a counterbalance.”Razitch’s latest book,Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms,traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools,concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits.But they could and should be.Encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control.Without the ability to think critically,to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others,they cannot fully participate in our democracy.Continuing along this path,says writer Earl Shorris,“We will become a second-rate country.We will have a less civil society.”“Intellect is resented as a form of power or privilege,”writes historian and Professor Richard Hofstadter in Anti-Intellectualism in American life,a Pulitzer Prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in US politics,religion,and education.From the beginning of our history,says Hofstadter,our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. Practicality,common sense,and native intelligence have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book.Ralph Waldo Emerson and other Transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children:“We are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for10or15years and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing.”Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn exemplified American anti-intellectualism.Its hero avoids being civilized, going to school and learning to read,so he can preserve his innate goodness.Intellect,according to Hofstadter,is different from native intelligence,a quality we reluctantly admire.Intellect is the critical,creative,and contemplative side of the mind.Intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate,re-order,and adjust,while intellect examines,ponders,wonders,theorizes,criticizes and imagines.School remains a place where intellect is mistrusted.Hofstadter says our country’s educational system is in the grips of people who“joyfully and militantly proclaim their hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise.”46.What do American parents expect their children to acquire in school?A.The habit of thinking independently.B.Profound knowledge of the worldC.Practical abilities for future career.D.The confidence in intellectual pursuits.47.We can learn from the text that Americans have a history of_______.A.undervaluing intellectB.favoring intellectualismC.supporting school reformD.suppressing native intelligence48.The views of Ravitch and Emerson on schooling are________.A.identicalB.similarplementaryD.opposite入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译49.Emerson,according to the text,is probably_______.A.a pioneer of education reformB.an opponent of intellectualismC.a scholar in favor of intellectD.an advocate of regular schooling50.What does the author think of intellect?A.It is second to intelligence.B.It evolves from common sense.C.It is to be pursuedD.It underlies power.Questions51to55are based on the following passage:There are good reasons to be troubled by the violence that spreads throughout the media.Movies, television and video games are full of gunplay and bloodshed,and one might reasonably ask what’s wrong with a society that presents videos of domestic violence as entertainment.Most researchers agree that the causes of real-world violence are complex.A1993study by the U.S.National Academy of Sciences listed“biological,individual,family,peer,school,and community factors”as all playing their parts.Viewing abnormally large amounts of violent television and video games may well contribute to violent behavior in certain individuals.The trouble comes when researchers downplay uncertainties in their studies or overstate the case for causality.Skeptics were dismayed several years ago when a group of societies including the American Medical Association tried to end the debate by issuing a joint statement:“At this time,well over1,000studies...point overwhelmingly to a causal connection between media violence and aggressive behavior in some children.”Freedom-of-speech advocates accused the societies of catering to politicians,and even disputed the number of studies(most were review articles and essays,they said).When Jonathan Freedman,a social psychologist at the University of Toronto,reviewed the literature,he found only200or so studies of television-watching and aggression.And when he weeded out“the most doubtful measures of aggression”,only28%supported a connection.The critical point here is causality.The alarmists say they have proved that violent media cause aggression.But the assumptions behind their observations need to be examined.When labeling games as violent or non-violent,should a hero eating a ghost really be counted as a violent event?And when experimenters record the time it takes game players to read‘aggressive’or‘non-aggressive’words from a list,can we be sure what they are actually measuring?The intent of the new Harvard Center on Media and Child Health to collect and standardize studies of media violence in order to compare their methodologies,assumptions and conclusions is an important step in the right direction.Another appropriate step would be to tone down the criticism until we know more.Several researchers write,speak and testify quite a lot on the threat posed by violence in the media.That is,of course,their privilege.But when doing so,they often come out with statements that the matter has now been settled,drawing criticism from colleagues.In response,the alarmists accuse critics and news reporters of being deceived by the entertainment industry.Such clashes help neither science nor society.入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译51.Why is there so much violence shown in movies,TV and video games?A.There is a lot of violence in the real world today.B.Something has gone wrong with today’s society.C.Many people are fond of gunplay and bloodshedD.Showing violence is thought to be entertaining.52.What is the skeptics(Line3,Paragraph3)view of media violence?A.Violence on television is a fairly accurate reflection of real-world life.B.Most studies exaggerate the effect of media violence on the viewers.C.A causal relationship exists between media and real-world violence.D.The influence of media violence on children has been underestimated53.The author uses the term“alarmists”(Line1,Paragraph5)to refer to those who________.e standardized measurements in the studies of media violenceB.initiated the debate over the influence of violent media on realityC.assert a direct link between violent media and aggressive behaviore appropriate methodology in examining aggressive behavior54.In refuting the alarmists,the author advances his argument by first challenging________.A.the source and amount of their dataB.the targets of their observationC.their system of measurementD.their definition of violence55.What does the author think of the debate concerning the relationship between the media andviolence?A.More studies should be conducted before conclusions are drawn.B.It should come to an end since the matter has now been settledC.The past studies in this field have proved to be misleading.D.He more than agrees with the views held by the alarmists.Questions56to60are based on the following passage:In the college-admissions wars,we parents are the true fighters.We are pushing our kids to get good grades,take SAT preparatory courses and build résumés so they can get into the college of our first choice.I've twice been to the wars,and as I survey the battlefield,something different is happening.We see our kids'college background as a prize demonstrating how well we've raised them. But we can't acknowledge that our obsession is more about us than them:So we've contrived various justifications that turn out to be half-truths,prejudices or myths.It actually doesn't matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.We have a full-blown prestige panic;we worry that there won't be enough prizes to go around. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever.Underlying the hysteria is the belief that scarce elite degrees must be highly valuable.Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts.All that is plausible—and mostly wrong.We haven't found any convincing evidence that selectivity or prestige matters.Selective schools入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译don't systematically employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools.On two measures—professors'feedback and the number of essay exams—selective schools do slightly worse.By some studies,selective schools do enhance their graduates'lifetime earnings.The gain is reckoned at2-4%for every100-point increase in a school's average SAT scores.But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke.A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere.They earned just as much as graduates from higher-status schools.Kids count more than their colleges.Getting into Yale may signify intelligence,talent and ambition.But it's not the only indicator and,paradoxically,its significance is declining.The reason:so many similar people go elsewhere.Getting into college isn't life's only competition.In the next competition—the job market and graduate school—the results may change.Old-boy networks are breaking down.Princeton economist Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph.D program.High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in;degrees of prestigious universities didn't.So,parents,lighten up.The stakes have been vastly exaggerated.Up to a point,we can rationalize our pushiness.America is a competitive society;our kids need to adjust to that.But too much pushiness can be destructive.The very ambition we impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment.One study found that,other things being equal,graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction.They may have been so conditioned to being on top that anything less disappoints.56.Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?A.They have the final say in which university their children are to attend？B.They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.C.They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make an application.D.They care more about which college their children go to than the children themselves.57.Why do parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever?A.They want to increase their children's chances of entering a prestigious college.B.They hope their children can enter a university that offers attractive scholarships.C.Their children will have a wider choice of which college to go to.D.Elite universities now enroll fewer students than they used to.58．What does the author mean by saying"Kids count more than their college"(Line1,Paragraph4)?A.Continuing education is more important to a person's success.B.A person's happiness should be valued more than their education.C.Kids’actual abilities are more important than their college backgrounds.D.What kids learn at college cannot keep up with job market requirements.入学考试试题(A卷)(答案必须写在答题纸上)考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译59．What does Krueger's study tell us?A.Getting into Ph.D programs may be more competitive than getting into college.B.Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs.C.Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.D.Connections built in prestigious universities may be sustained long after graduation.60．One possible result of pushing children into elite universities is that______.A.they earn less than their peers from other institutionsB.they turn out to be less competitive in the job marketC.they experience more job dissatisfaction after graduationD.they overemphasize their qualifications in job applicationsPart III Writing(30points)Directions:Based on the information given below,please write an essay of about600words on the Answer Sheet.You have60minutes to plan,write,and revise your essay.If you could travel back in time or into the future,which would you choose and what exact period of time would you like to experience?Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.

一六年浙江高考英语读后续写范文全文共3篇示例，供读者参考篇1The 2016 Zhejiang College Entrance Examination English reading comprehension section had one passage about a young girl named Lily who traveled to Australia and stayed with a host family for a year to study English. The passage ended with Lily deciding to return to China after experiencing homesickness.Continuing the story from where it left off, Lily's time in Australia gradually became more enjoyable as she made friends with her classmates and improved her English skills. She became more confident and independent as she navigated the challenges of living in a foreign country. Despite missing her family and friends back in China, Lily found comfort in the relationships she built in Australia.As the months went by, Lily's host family became like a second family to her. They supported her in her studies and encouraged her to pursue her interests. Lily began to feel grateful for the opportunity to experience life in Australia and learn about a different culture.One day, Lily received a letter from her parents in China, expressing how much they missed her and how proud they were of her for taking on this adventure. The letter reminded Lily of her roots and gave her the strength to continue her journey in Australia.As the end of her stay approached, Lily felt conflicted about leaving. She had grown accustomed to life in Australia and had developed strong bonds with the people she met. However, she also longed to return to her home country and reunite with her loved ones.In the end, Lily decided to return to China with a heavy heart but with a newfound appreciation for her experiences in Australia. She knew that she would always cherish the memories she made and the lessons she learned during her time abroad.

Nervous but determined, students poured over the questions, carefully weighing their options and crafting their responses. For some, the multiple choice section was a breeze, while others struggled to choose the correct answer from the four options provided.As the exam progressed, students tackled the writing section, where they were asked to read a passage and write a response based on the information provided. Some were able to compose eloquent essays, showcasing their language skills and critical thinking abilities. Others found themselves grappling with the task, struggling to express their ideas clearly and coherently.Despite the challenges, students emerged from the exam room feeling a sense of accomplishment and relief. They knew that they had done their best, and that was all they could ask for.In the weeks that followed, students eagerly awaited their results, hoping for the best but preparing for the worst. Finally, the day arrived when the results were announced, and students anxiously logged on to check their scores.Some were overjoyed to see that they had exceeded their expectations, while others were disappointed to find that they had fallen short of their goals. But regardless of the outcome, all the students knew that they had given it their all, and that was something to be proud of.As they reflected on their Gaokao experience, the students realized that it was not just about the test itself, but about the journey they had taken to get there. The late nights spent studying, the sacrifices made in pursuit of their goals, the support of their teachers and families – all of these things had contributed to their success, and they were grateful for the opportunity to have taken part in such a challenging and rewarding experience.Looking ahead to the future, the students knew that the Gaokao was just the beginning of their academic journey. There were more challenges to come, more opportunities to seize, and more dreams to pursue. But no matter what lay ahead, they were confident that they had the skills, the determination, and the support to face whatever may come their way.And so, the students of Zhejiang Province closed the chapter on their Gaokao experience, with a sense of pride and gratitude for all they had achieved. They were ready to face the nextchapter of their lives, knowing that they had the knowledge and skills to succeed in whatever path they chose to take.篇3Title: A New Beginning - Continuing the Story of the Zhejiang High School Entrance Examination English Reading ComprehensionIt was a warm summer evening in Zhejiang, and the sun was setting over the horizon.

2016年浙江专升本英语考试真题全文共6篇示例，供读者参考篇1My Big English Exam AdventureHi there! My name is Xiaoming and I'm 10 years old. I just had the craziest experience taking a really important English exam called the 2016 Zhejiang Associate's Degree Admission English Exam. It was super tough but I tried my best!The exam was last Saturday morning. My mom woke me up at 6am which is sooo early for a kid like me on a weekend. But she said I had to get up because the exam started at 8:30am and we didn't want to be late. I groggily got out of bed, put on my school uniform, and had a quick breakfast of congeebaba (that's what I call congee and Chinese doughnuts).Then my dad drove me to the exam site which was at a big university downtown. There were so many other students there, mostly older teenagers. I felt really small compared to them! We had to go through security checks to get inside the exam room. The rules were very strict - no cheating at all was allowed. I was really nervous!Finally, it was time to begin the exam. The proctor passed out the test booklets and I heard the rustling of papers all around me as we opened them up. The first section was listening comprehension. Some English dialogues and passages were played over the speakers and we had to answer multiple choice questions about what we heard. This part was pretty okay for me since my English listening isn't too bad.Next up was the reading section and this was super hard! The passages were sooo long and had all these big vocabulary words I didn't know. There were questions about the main ideas, details, inferences, and even askingwhat certain phrases meant. I'm usually a good reader but I struggled a lot with this part. I just tried my best to understand as much as I could.We then had a break for lunch. I scurried out of the exam room and my mom had a boxed lunch waiting for me with some fried rice, veggies, and my favorite - beef meatballs! I inhaled it pretty quick since we only had 30 minutes for lunch. Some students looked super stressed out but I tried not to let it bother me too much.After lunch was the writing section and I was pretty confident for this part. The first writing task was just a short paragraph about my favorite hobby. Easy peasy! I wrote all abouthow I love playing basketball and shooting hoops with my friends. For the second task, we had to write a longer essay agreeing or disagreeing with an opinion. I chose to disagree with the opinion that "success is more important than effort." I wrote all about how I think it's the effort that really counts and used examples from how I study hard for tests like this one.The very last part was speaking, which I was a little nervous about. We had to go one-by-one into a separate room and have a conversation with a test grader about different topics. The grader asked me some warm-up questions about my family and hobbies. Then they showed me a picture of some kids doing experiments and asked me to describe what I saw, which was pretty straightforward. Finally, they asked my opinion on whether grades or hands-on learning was more important. I gave a balanced response saying both ways have their merits.Phew, that was it! I walked out of therewith my brain feeling like a balloon thathadjust been deflated.Buthad a big smile on my face knowing I had given it my all. My parents greeted me so proudly when I emerged.On the way home, we stopped for ice cream to celebrate me making it through the exam. I got anice big scoop of strawberryand one of chocolate sauce too! The cold, sweet treat really hit the spot after such a mentally exhausting day.A few weeks later, my results came in the mail and I was overjoyed to see that I passed!All that hard work and perseverance paid off. The exam was one of the toughest things I've ever done, but I proved to myself that I could overcome a big challenge through determination and effort.So there you have it, that's my big exam adventure! It was hard but I made it through. I'm really proud of myself but also glad it's over haha. If you ever have to take a huge test like that, just do your best and don't give up. Let me know if you have any other questions! Thanks for reading!篇2The Big Test DayToday was the big English test! Mama woke me up really early and made me a big breakfast with eggs, rice and veggies to get me ready. She said I needed lots of energy for my brain today.I got dressed in my nicest school uniform with the blue shorts and white shirt.When we got to the school, there were sooo many students there. Hundreds! All the desks were set up in the biggest room I've ever seen. It looked like a giant's dining room. I saw some of my friends from class and we got to sit together which made me feel better. The teachers were very serious though and kept shushing everyone.Finally, the head teacher came out and told us to get our pencils ready. She had a loud voice that could probably be heard all the way across the field during PE class. She said this was a very important test and we all needed to try our best. Then she handed out the test papers. They were at least twenty pages thick! My heart started beating really fast.The first section was listening. A voice came on over the speakers telling us to listen carefully and mark our answers on the sheet. It was talking about shopping at the grocery store and asking questions like "How many apples did John buy?" and "What did the cashier say?" It was hard to catch everything, but I did my best. Mama always takes me grocery shopping with her so at least I knew some of the words.Next was the reading section and that was really tough. There were so many long passages about science and history. I'm good at reading comics and kid novels, but textbook language isway harder. I read slowly and tried to understand as much as I could. For the ones I didn't understand, I had to guess if the answer was A, B, C or D based on the words I did know.Writing was after that and we had to write an essay about our favorite activities. That was fun because I love drawing and riding my bike with my friends. I got to write all about the cool pictures I like to make and how I've gotten better at bunny hops and wheelies lately. Essays are my favorite part of English because I get to share my stories.Grammmar was probably my worst section though. The questions asked us to pick the right verb tenses or fix the pronoun errors in sentences. I find that stuff super confusing with all the rules. I just had to go with my gut feeling on a lot of them. Mama is always correcting me when I say "Her go to park yesterday" so I tried my best.Finally, we got to the speaking part at the end. One by one, we had to go to the front and pick a topic for the teacher to ask us questions about. I picked sports because I know a lot about basketball, soccer and badminton from PE class. The teacher asked stuff like "What are some popular sports?" and "Why do you like playing sports?" I think I did pretty well because I could use simple words I know really well.Phew! After what felt like daaays, we finally got to turn in our test papers. My hand was so sore from all that writing and bubbling in the answers. As I walked out with my classmates, I felt both tired and relieved. That was soooo much work, but I did my very best. Mama said she was proud of me no matter what my score was. Now I just have to wait for the results. Hopefully I did well enough to go to the good university!篇3My Exciting Adventure at the 2016 Zhejiang College Entrance ExamHi everyone! Today I want to tell you about my incredible experience at the 2016 Zhejiang College Entrance Exam. It was such a big event, and I was so excited to be a part of it!First, let me tell you a little bit about the exam. It was an English test for adults who wanted to go to college. Can you believe that? Grown-ups taking a test just like us! It was held in Zhejiang province, and people from all over the place came to take it.Now, let's talk about the exam itself. It had different parts, and the first part was all about reading. We had to read a passage and answer questions about it. The funny thing is, someof the questions were about cats and dogs. I love animals, so I thought that was pretty cool!Then came the listening part. They played some recordings, and we had to listen carefully and answer questions. I had to concentrate really hard because some of the recordings were a bit tricky. But I did my best, just like I do in my English classes at school.After that, we had to write an essay. The topic was "My Dream Vacation." I wrote about going to the beach with my family. I talked about building sandcastles, swimming in the ocean, and eating ice cream. It made me want to go on vacation right away!The last part of the exam was speaking. We had to talk to an examiner about different topics. I was a little nervous at first, but the examiner was really nice. We talked about my hobbies, my favorite food, and even my future plans. I told them I want to be a doctor when I grow up. They seemed impressed!Overall, the exam was a lot of fun. I got to meet new people and show off my English skills. It made me feel proud of all the hard work I've put into learning English. And guess what? I even got a certificate at the end to show that I took the exam. I can't wait to show it to my friends!So, that's the story of my exciting adventure at the 2016 Zhejiang College Entrance Exam. It was a day full of reading, listening, writing, and speaking. I learned a lot and had a great time. Maybe one day, when I'm all grown up, I'll take a test like that and go to college too!I hope you enjoyed hearing about my experience. Remember, studying and working hard can lead to amazing opportunities. Keep learning and dreaming big!篇4The Big Kids' Super Hard Test DayOh boy, that was a crazy day! My big sister Lily had to take this massive test called the "Zhejiang Academic Examination for Upgrading from Junior College to Undergraduate Education." That's a really long name, so let's just call it the "Big Kid Test."Lily is super smart and studies really hard at her junior college. She wants to go to a great university next year. But first, she had to pass this Big Kid Test. It's supposed to be super duper difficult!The day started off pretty normal. Lily got up really early, like before the sun was even awake! She put on her lucky purple shirtand her favorite jeans. For breakfast, she had veggie scrambled eggs and whole wheat toast. Yuck! I'd rather have chocolate chip pancakes.Then Lily double and triple checked that she had everything - pencils, erasers, calculator, admission ticket, identity card. She made sure her backpack was all packed up and ready to go. I helped carry it to the door because it looked super heavy with all her books and stuff.My parents kept telling Lily not to worry and just to do her best. But I could see she looked a little nervous. Her hands were shaking a tiny bit as she drank her orange juice. I gave her a big hug and told her she was gonna ace that test!Finally, it was time to leave. Mom, Dad, and I all walked Lily to the exam center at her junior college. There were so many Big Kids there, all looking nervous too. Some of their parents gave them last minute pep talks. Others had these focused, determined looks on their faces. Lily joined the long line to get inside.The test was split into two parts - the morning session and the afternoon session. The morning had listening, reading, and writing sections. Lily said those were challenging but okay. She got a little break for lunch, but not too long.Then it was time for the afternoon session - translation and composition writing. Yikes! That sounds crazy hard. But Lily had been preparing by practicing translation passages and essay writing for months. I'm sure she nailed it.When Lily finally emerged from the exam room, she looked beat. Her hair was a mess and her shirt was untucked. But she had this big smile on her face. Mom and Dad hugged her and I jumped up to give her a high five. She did it!We went out for Lily's favorite dumplings that night to celebrate. She deserved it after that monster of a test day. I don't know if I'll ever be able to handle an exam like that. Lily is my hero!A couple months later, the results came out. Lily did amazing and got a super high score! She can apply to all the best universities now. I'm so proud of her for working so hard.The 2016 Big Kid Test was no joke. But my brilliant sister tackled it like a champion. I look up to her so much. Maybe in a few years when I'm a Big Kid too, I can follow in Lily's footsteps and knock that test out of the park!篇5The Big English Exam for Grown-UpsHi there! My name is Amy, and I'm a 10-year-old student in the fifth grade. I love learning new things, especially when it comes to English. It's such a fun language to learn, with lots of cool words and interesting stories.Today, I want to share with you something really exciting that happened last year. It's all about a super-duper important exam that my older cousin, Lily, had to take. She was trying to get into a really good college, but she had to pass this big English test first. It's called the 2016 Zhejiang College Entrance Examination for English Language Learners.Let me tell you all about it!Lily is 18 years old and has been studying English since she was a little kid, just like me. She's really good at it, but this exam was no joke. It was like the ultimate challenge for all the grown-ups who wanted to go to college.The exam had four parts: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. Lily had to show that she could understand spoken English, read and comprehend difficult texts, writewell-organized essays, and even have conversations in English. Whew, that's a lot of stuff to remember!But you know what? Lily was totally prepared. She had been studying like crazy for months, reading English books, watching movies and shows in English, and practicing her speaking skills with her English teacher. She even made flashcards to help her learn new vocabulary words.When the big day finally arrived, Lily was a little nervous, but she was also really excited. She woke up super early, had a healthy breakfast, and headed to the exam center with her lucky pencil case.The listening part was first. Lily had to listen to recordings of people talking and answer questions about what they said. It was tough, but she stayed focused and tried her best.Next up篇6The Big English TestHi there! My name is Lily and I'm in 5th grade. I just took a really important English test last weekend. It was the 2016 Zhejiang exam for vocational college students trying to upgrade to a bachelor's degree program. I'm still just a kid, but my older brother Xiao Ming is one of those vocational college students.He asked me to take the test for him since my English is better than his. I figured why not, it could be fun!The test had four sections - listening, reading, writing, and translation. We had to answer multiple choice questions and also write some essays and translate passages between English and Chinese. Here's how it all went down:ListeningThe listening part was pretty tough! We had to listen to recordings of conversations and lectures, then answer comprehension questions about the main ideas and details. Some of the topics were really advanced, like bioengineering and economic policies. How am I supposed to know anything about that stuff? I'm still learning my multiplication tables!There were a couple conversation transcripts that seemed more my speed. One was about two friends deciding what movie to see. Another was coworkers discussing their weekend plans. Those helped me get a few questions right at least. Phew!For the lectures, I just had to take careful notes and look for keywords I recognized like "significant impact" or "fundamental principle." Whenever I heard transition words like "for example" or "in contrast," I knew an important point was coming up. I triedmy best, but I'll be honest - I probably got a lot of those listening questions wrong. Don't be too hard on me, I'm only 10 years old!ReadingNext up was the reading section, and I felt a little more confident here since reading is one of my strengths. We had to read a few passages and answer comprehension questions, just like the listening part. The topics were pretty varied - one was about the history of artificial intelligence, another discussed environmental policies, stuff like that.My strategy was to skim through quickly first to get the main gist. Then I'd go back and read carefully, circling keywords and making notes in the margins. I looked for transition words and examples to identify key points. Whenever I came across words I didn't know, I tried using context clues to figure out the meaning.There were some pretty long vocabulary words like "environmental ramifications" that I've never heard of before. For those, I just had to take my best guess based on the roots I recognize. Overall though, I understood most of the readings since my English reading level is pretty high for my age. The questions were still challenging of course, but I felt good about this section.WritingThen it was time for the writing section - my favorite part! We had to write a few different essays, including an opinion piece about whether social media is good or bad for society. That one was easy for me since my parents are always going on about how social media rots kids' brains these days. I just mimicked some of their main arguments about internet addiction and lack of face-to-face interaction. Hopefully that was convincing enough!We also had to write a proposal for some kind of environmental initiative. That one was harder since I'm honestly not super familiar with environmental policies and regulations. I just tried to use lots of fancy vocabulary words I've learned like "sustainability" and "carbon footprint" and throw in some basic tips about recycling and reducing emissions. Finger's crossed that was sufficient!The last writing task was to summarize the key points from a lecture transcript we had listened to earlier in the test. I did my best to pick out the main arguments and crucialexamples/evidence. My teacher is always reminding me not to go overboard with little details when summarizing, so I tried tojust hit the highlights. Writing has always been my strong suit, so hopefully I aced this part!TranslationLast but not least came the translation section. Oof, this part was brutal! We had to translate passages back and forth between English and Chinese. I'm honestly not sure how I did here. There were so many idiomatic expressions and cultural references that got lost in translation one way or the other.Like for the English to Chinese part, one of the passages was about American football traditions and terminology. Good luck explaining what a "touchdown" or "field goal" is in natural Chinese! I've never even watched a football game before. I just did a very literal, word-for-word type of translation on that one. Fingers crossed it made some kind of sense.The Chinese to English prompts were no easier. We had to translate things like old Chinese proverbs and traditional medicine philosophies. How do you say "yin and yang" or "qi energy" in proper English? Your guess is as good as mine! I just tried to capture the general gist as best I could.Overall, the translation part was by far the most challenging for me. I'm quite fluent in both English and Chinese for my age.But the idiomatic and cultural stuff was really tricky to get right in either language. I have a feeling I dropped the ball a bit on those translation prompts.Phew! Well, that's my play-by-play recap of this crazy important English test I took. I'm honestly not sure how I did overall. The writing was probably my strong point, and I felt pretty good about most of the reading comprehension too. Listening and translation, not so much! But hey, I gave it my best shot.Hopefully my honest efforts were enough for my brother to get a decent score. He'd better do me a favor too if he ends up getting into that bachelor's program! An English test designed for vocational college students was no walk in the park, even for a little kid like me who's totally fluent. If you ever have to take a test like this, good luck! You're gonna need it.。

after dinner．Loewy’s husband has a very good job and her two sons are away at university，so she has the time and money to treat Titty very well，and she truly enjoys doing it．“I want to give her the

fantastic control center is you brain．It is so amazing that afamous scientist once called it“the most complex （复杂）thing we have yet discovered in our universe”．Can this small grey organ （器官），which weights less than one and a half kilos，really do so much？Amazingly，your brain contains about 100 billion neurons （神经元）﹣it would take you over 3000 years to count them all．Believe it or not，the activity in your brain never stops．Your neurons create and send more messages than all the phones in the world．And although one neuron creates only a little electricity，all your neurons together can producte enough electricity to power a light bulb （灯泡）．”So exactly how fast does your brain work？Well，imagine this：a bee lands on your foot．Neurons in your skin send this information to your brain at a speed of more than 240 kilometers per hour．Your brain then uses other neurons to send the message back to your foot to shake the bee off quickly．These neurons can send this information at more than

this part.Each passage is followed by some questions or statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D You are expected to make the best choice.Questions41to45are based on the following passage:Moral responsibility is all very well,but what about military orders?Is it not the soldier’s first duty to give instant obedience to orders given by his military superiors?And apart from duty,will not the soldier suffer severe punishment,even death,if he refuses to do what he is ordered to do?If,then,a soldier is told by his superior to burn this house or to shoot that prisoner,how can he be held criminally accountable on the ground that the burning or shooting was a violation of the laws of war?These are some of the questions that are raised by the concept commonly called“superior orders”, and its use as a defense in war crimes trials.It is an issue that must be as old as the laws of war themselves,and it emerged in legal guise over three centuries ago when,after the Stuart restoration in 1660,the commander of the guards at the trial and execution of Charles I was put on trial for treason and murder.The officer defended himself on the ground“that all he did was as a soldier,by the command of his superior officer whom he must obey or die,”but the court gave him short shrift,saying that“when the command is traitorous,then the obedience to that command is also traitorous.”Though not precisely articulated,the rule that is necessarily implied by this decision is that it is the soldier’s duty to obey lawful orders,but that he may disobey—and indeed must,under some circumstances—unlawful orders.Such has been the law of the United States since the birth of the nation.In1804,Chief Justice John Marshall declared that superior orders will justify a subordinate’s conduct only“if not to perform a prohibited act”,and there are many other early decisions to the same考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译effect.A strikingly illustrative case occurred in the wake of that conflict of which most Englishmen have never heard(although their troops burned the White House)and which we call the War of1812.Our country was badly split by that war too and,at a time when the United States Navy was not especially popular in New England,the ship-in-the-line Independence was lying in Boston Harbor.A pass-by directed abusive language at a marine standing guard on the ship,and the marine,Bevans by name,ran his bayonet through the man.Charged with murder,Bevans produced evidence that the marines on the Independence had been ordered to bayonet anyone showing them disrespect.The case was tried before Justice Joseph Story,next to Marshall,the leading judicial figure of those years,who charged that any such order as Bevans had invoked“would be illegal and void”,and,if given and put into practice,both the superior and the subordinate would be guilty of murder.In consequence,Bevans was convicted.The order allegedly given to Bevans was pretty drastic,and Boston Harbor was not a battlefield; perhaps it was not too much to expect the marine to realize that literal compliance might lead to bad trouble.But it is only too easy to conceive of circumstances where the matter might not be at all clear. Does the subordinate obey at peril that the order may later be ruled illegal,or is protected unless he has a good reason to doubt its validity?41.It can be inferred from Para.1that if a soldier obeys his superior’s order to burn a house or to kill aprisoner,________.A.he is right according to moral standardsB.he should not receive any punishmentC.he should certainly be liable for his actionD.he will be convicted according to the law of war42.What was the rule implied by the trail of the commander of the guards?A.A soldier must obey lawful orders,be he right or wrong.B.Even if an order is unlawful,the soldier must still obey it.C.A soldier may or must disobey unlawful orders or he must die.D.It is the soldier’s duty to obey superior orders whatever they are.43.The phrase“to the same effect”(Line6,Para.3)most probably means“which”________.A.are of the similar meaningB.have the same purposeC.must be put into effectD.lead to the same result44.According to the fourth paragraph,Bevans was found guilty because he________.A.obey illegal ordersB.was accused of murderC.disobeyed the superior ordersD.offended against the law of war45.It can be concluded from the last paragraph that the author’s attitude towards Bevans was______.A.bewilderingB.indignantC.approvingD.not quite sympathetic Questions46to50are based on the following passage:Americans today don’t place a very high value on intellect.Our heroes are athletes,entertainers, and entrepreneurs,not scholars.Even our schools are where we send our children to get a practical考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译education——not to pursue knowledge for the sake of knowledge.Symptoms of pervasive anti-intellectualism in our schools aren’t difficult to find.“Schools have always been in a society where practical is more important than intellectual,”says education writer Diane Ravitch.“Schools could be a counterbalance.”Razitch’s latest book,Left Back: A Century of Failed School Reforms,traces the roots of anti-intellectualism in our schools,concluding they are anything but a counterbalance to the American distaste for intellectual pursuits.But they could and should be.Encouraging kids to reject the life of the mind leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and control.Without the ability to think critically,to defend their ideas and understand the ideas of others,they cannot fully participate in our democracy.Continuing along this path,says writer Earl Shorris,“We will become a second-rate country.We will have a less civil society.”“Intellect is resented as a form of power or privilege,”writes historian and Professor Richard Hofstadter in Anti-Intellectualism in American life,a Pulitzer Prize winning book on the roots of anti-intellectualism in US politics,religion,and education.From the beginning of our history,says Hofstadter,our democratic and populist urges have driven us to reject anything that smells of elitism. Practicality,common sense,and native intelligence have been considered more noble qualities than anything you could learn from a book.Ralph Waldo Emerson and other Transcendentalist philosophers thought schooling and rigorous book learning put unnatural restraints on children:“We are shut up in schools and college recitation rooms for10or15years and come out at last with a bellyful of words and do not know a thing.”Mark Twain’s Huckleberry Finn exemplified American anti-intellectualism.Its hero avoids being civilized, going to school and learning to read,so he can preserve his innate goodness.Intellect,according to Hofstadter,is different from native intelligence,a quality we reluctantly admire.Intellect is the critical,creative,and contemplative side of the mind.Intelligence seeks to grasp, manipulate,re-order,and adjust,while intellect examines,ponders,wonders,theorizes,criticizes and imagines.School remains a place where intellect is mistrusted.Hofstadter says our country’s educational system is in the grips of people who“joyfully and militantly proclaim their hostility to intellect and their eagerness to identify with children who show the least intellectual promise.”46.What do American parents expect their children to acquire in school?A.The habit of thinking independently.B.Profound knowledge of the worldC.Practical abilities for future career.D.The confidence in intellectual pursuits.47.We can learn from the text that Americans have a history of_______.A.undervaluing intellectB.favoring intellectualismC.supporting school reformD.suppressing native intelligence48.The views of Ravitch and Emerson on schooling are________.A.identicalB.similarplementaryD.opposite考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译49.Emerson,according to the text,is probably_______.A.a pioneer of education reformB.an opponent of intellectualismC.a scholar in favor of intellectD.an advocate of regular schooling50.What does the author think of intellect?A.It is second to intelligence.B.It evolves from common sense.C.It is to be pursuedD.It underlies power.Questions51to55are based on the following passage:There are good reasons to be troubled by the violence that spreads throughout the media.Movies, television and video games are full of gunplay and bloodshed,and one might reasonably ask what’s wrong with a society that presents videos of domestic violence as entertainment.Most researchers agree that the causes of real-world violence are complex.A1993study by the U.S.National Academy of Sciences listed“biological,individual,family,peer,school,and community factors”as all playing their parts.Viewing abnormally large amounts of violent television and video games may well contribute to violent behavior in certain individuals.The trouble comes when researchers downplay uncertainties in their studies or overstate the case for causality.Skeptics were dismayed several years ago when a group of societies including the American Medical Association tried to end the debate by issuing a joint statement:“At this time,well over1,000studies...point overwhelmingly to a causal connection between media violence and aggressive behavior in some children.”Freedom-of-speech advocates accused the societies of catering to politicians,and even disputed the number of studies(most were review articles and essays,they said).When Jonathan Freedman,a social psychologist at the University of Toronto,reviewed the literature,he found only200or so studies of television-watching and aggression.And when he weeded out“the most doubtful measures of aggression”,only28%supported a connection.The critical point here is causality.The alarmists say they have proved that violent media cause aggression.But the assumptions behind their observations need to be examined.When labeling games as violent or non-violent,should a hero eating a ghost really be counted as a violent event?And when experimenters record the time it takes game players to read‘aggressive’or‘non-aggressive’words from a list,can we be sure what they are actually measuring?The intent of the new Harvard Center on Media and Child Health to collect and standardize studies of media violence in order to compare their methodologies,assumptions and conclusions is an important step in the right direction.Another appropriate step would be to tone down the criticism until we know more.Several researchers write,speak and testify quite a lot on the threat posed by violence in the media.That is,of course,their privilege.But when doing so,they often come out with statements that the matter has now been settled,drawing criticism from colleagues.In response,the alarmists accuse critics and news reporters of being deceived by the entertainment industry.Such clashes help neither science nor society.考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译51.Why is there so much violence shown in movies,TV and video games?A.There is a lot of violence in the real world today.B.Something has gone wrong with today’s society.C.Many people are fond of gunplay and bloodshedD.Showing violence is thought to be entertaining.52.What is the skeptics(Line3,Paragraph3)view of media violence?A.Violence on television is a fairly accurate reflection of real-world life.B.Most studies exaggerate the effect of media violence on the viewers.C.A causal relationship exists between media and real-world violence.D.The influence of media violence on children has been underestimated53.The author uses the term“alarmists”(Line1,Paragraph5)to refer to those who________.e standardized measurements in the studies of media violenceB.initiated the debate over the influence of violent media on realityC.assert a direct link between violent media and aggressive behaviore appropriate methodology in examining aggressive behavior54.In refuting the alarmists,the author advances his argument by first challenging________.A.the source and amount of their dataB.the targets of their observationC.their system of measurementD.their definition of violence55.What does the author think of the debate concerning the relationship between the media andviolence?A.More studies should be conducted before conclusions are drawn.B.It should come to an end since the matter has now been settledC.The past studies in this field have proved to be misleading.D.He more than agrees with the views held by the alarmists.Questions56to60are based on the following passage:In the college-admissions wars,we parents are the true fighters.We are pushing our kids to get good grades,take SAT preparatory courses and build résumés so they can get into the college of our first choice.I've twice been to the wars,and as I survey the battlefield,something different is happening.We see our kids'college background as a prize demonstrating how well we've raised them. But we can't acknowledge that our obsession is more about us than them:So we've contrived various justifications that turn out to be half-truths,prejudices or myths.It actually doesn't matter much whether Aaron and Nicole go to Stanford.We have a full-blown prestige panic;we worry that there won't be enough prizes to go around. Fearful parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever.Underlying the hysteria is the belief that scarce elite degrees must be highly valuable.Their graduates must enjoy more success because they get a better education and develop better contacts.All that is plausible—and mostly wrong.We haven't found any convincing evidence that selectivity or prestige matters.Selective schools考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译don't systematically employ better instructional approaches than less selective schools.On two measures—professors'feedback and the number of essay exams—selective schools do slightly worse.By some studies,selective schools do enhance their graduates'lifetime earnings.The gain is reckoned at2-4%for every100-point increase in a school's average SAT scores.But even this advantage is probably a statistical fluke.A well-known study examined students who got into highly selective schools and then went elsewhere.They earned just as much as graduates from higher-status schools.Kids count more than their colleges.Getting into Yale may signify intelligence,talent and ambition.But it's not the only indicator and,paradoxically,its significance is declining.The reason:so many similar people go elsewhere.Getting into college isn't life's only competition.In the next competition—the job market and graduate school—the results may change.Old-boy networks are breaking down.Princeton economist Alan Krueger studied admissions to one top Ph.D program.High scores on the GRE helped explain who got in;degrees of prestigious universities didn't.So,parents,lighten up.The stakes have been vastly exaggerated.Up to a point,we can rationalize our pushiness.America is a competitive society;our kids need to adjust to that.But too much pushiness can be destructive.The very ambition we impose on our children may get some into Harvard but may also set them up for disappointment.One study found that,other things being equal,graduates of highly selective schools experienced more job dissatisfaction.They may have been so conditioned to being on top that anything less disappoints.56.Why does the author say that parents are the true fighters in the college-admissions wars?A.They have the final say in which university their children are to attend？B.They know best which universities are most suitable for their children.C.They have to carry out intensive surveys of colleges before children make an application.D.They care more about which college their children go to than the children themselves.57.Why do parents urge their children to apply to more schools than ever?A.They want to increase their children's chances of entering a prestigious college.B.They hope their children can enter a university that offers attractive scholarships.C.Their children will have a wider choice of which college to go to.D.Elite universities now enroll fewer students than they used to.58．What does the author mean by saying"Kids count more than their college"(Line1,Paragraph4)?A.Continuing education is more important to a person's success.B.A person's happiness should be valued more than their education.C.Kids’actual abilities are more important than their college backgrounds.D.What kids learn at college cannot keep up with job market requirements.考试科目:翻译硕士英语科目代码：211适用专业:英语笔译59．What does Krueger's study tell us?A.Getting into Ph.D programs may be more competitive than getting into college.B.Degrees of prestigious universities do not guarantee entry to graduate programs.C.Graduates from prestigious universities do not care much about their GRE scores.D.Connections built in prestigious universities may be sustained long after graduation.60．One possible result of pushing children into elite universities is that______.A.they earn less than their peers from other institutionsB.they turn out to be less competitive in the job marketC.they experience more job dissatisfaction after graduationD.they overemphasize their qualifications in job applicationsPart III Writing(30points)Directions:Based on the information given below,please write an essay of about600words on the Answer Sheet.You have60minutes to plan,write,and revise your essay.If you could travel back in time or into the future,which would you choose and what exact period of time would you like to experience?Use specific reasons and examples to support your choice.

（注：根据全国卷读后续写的特点，删除了原题中的划线词及续写要求）（2016年9月浙江卷）One weekend in July, Jane and her husband, Tom, had driven three hours to camp overnight by a lake in the forest. Unfortunately, on the way an unpleasant subject came up and they started to quarrel. By the time they reached the lake, Jane was so angry that she said to Tom, “I’m going to find a better spot for us to camp” and walked away.With no path to follow, Jane just walked on for quite a long time. After she had climbed to a high place, she turned around, hoping to see the lake. To her surprise, she saw nothing but forest and, far beyond, a snowcapped mountain top. She suddenly realized that she was lost.“Tom!” she cried. “Help!”No reply. If only she had not left her mobile phone in that bag with Tom. Jane kept moving, but the farther she walked, the more confused she became. As night was beginning to fall, Jane was so tired that she had to stop for the night. Lying awake in the dark, Jane wanted very much to be with Tom and her family. She wanted to hold him and tell him how much she loved him.Jane rose at the break of day, hungry and thirsty. She could hear water trickling (滴落) somewhere at a distance. Quickly she followed the sound to a stream. To her great joy, she also saw some berry bushes. She drank and ate a few berries. Never in her life had she tasted anything better. Feeling stronger now, Jane began to walk along the stream and hope it would lead her to the lake.As she picked her way carefully along the stream, Jane heard a helicopter. Is that for me? Unfortunately, the trees made it impossible for people to see her from above. A few minutes later, another helicopterflew overhead. Jane took off her yellow blouse, thinking that she should go to an open area and flag them if they came back again.注意：1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

让步状语从句中的guilty(有罪的)和主句的意思(法官没有把他送进监狱)表明，该法官是一个“仁慈的”人，故merciful(仁慈的，宽厚的)为答案。

impartial意为“公正的，不偏不倚的”；conscientious意为“认真的，勤勤恳恳的”；conspicuous意为“显眼的，明显的”，均与让步状语从句的意思不符，故均排除。
