古希腊人很早就有了历史意识,殊不知荷马就扮演了一部分史学家的角色,他的诗虽有文学成分,但也不乏众多的历史事实。
特洛伊的成功发掘,本身就证明了荷马记载的真实性。
希罗多德和修昔底德成就出两部古典史学名著《希波战争史》和《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》。
正确答案:(1)荷马:古希腊盲诗人。
相传创作了公元前12世纪至公元前1l 世纪的特洛伊战争以及关于海上冒险故事的古希腊长篇叙事代表史诗《伊利亚特》和《奥德赛》,实际上是他根据民间流传的短歌综合编写而成的。
这两部杰作被合称为《荷马史诗》,并在很长时间里影响了西方的宗教、文化和伦理观。
(2)特洛伊:也称“伊利昂”,古希腊殖民城市。
公元前16世纪前后为古希腊人所建,公元前13世纪至公元前12世纪时,颇为繁荣。
特洛伊城遗在今土耳其,位于恰纳卡莱南部,北临达达尼尔海峡,坐落在平缓的城堡山脚下。
特洛伊城遗址的发掘,始于19世纪中期,延续到20世纪30年代。
考古学家找到了公元400年罗马帝国时期的雅典娜神庙以及议事厅、市场和剧场的废墟等。
(3)《希波战争史》:即古希腊著名历史学家希罗多德所著的《历史》,是西方史学中最早的一部历史著作。
《希波战争史》取材广泛、规模宏大、史料充实,文字生动流畅、富于文采且充满了浪漫想象。
整本书内容丰富,不仅记载了政治、军事、外交等有关希波战争的史实,还广泛涉及古代埃及、巴比伦、叙利亚、波斯和小亚细亚各国的自然地理、风俗民情、宗教文化和社会经济情况。
其视野扩大到当时希腊及其周边世界,展示了古代近20个国家和地区的民族生活图景,被西方学者誉为“第一部世界性的社会文化史”和“百科全书式”的著作。
(4)《伯罗奔尼撒战争史》:古希腊史学家修昔底德的代表作。
全书讲述了以雅典为首的提洛同盟与以斯巴达为首的伯罗奔尼撒联盟之间的一场战争。

这是加利福尼亚大学和耶鲁大学出版在《美国国家科学院院刊》上的研究所得出的结论。
这项研究是比较了多组无血缘关系的朋友和无血缘关系的陌生人,在1932个实验对象身上所做的基因组分析。
同一批人用在了两组样本里。
尽管这1%的相同基因可能毫无意义,但对基因学家来说却并非如此。
正如加州大学圣地亚哥分校的医学基因学教授James Fowler说的:“大多数人根本不认识他们的第四代表亲,却在冥冥之中成功选择与我们血缘相近的人作朋友。
”〖HJ〗研究还发现朋友之间还有部分相同的嗅觉基因但免疫基因是不同的。
目前为止,嗅觉基因为何存在相似性很难解释。
或许,正如研究团队说的那样,相似之处把我们吸引到一个相似的环境中,而在相似的环境中有更多相似点。
有很多机制共同作用促使我们选择有着相同基因的人做朋友,而不是以“功能性亲属关系”选择能带来利益的人做朋友。
研究值得一提的一项发现是相似基因似乎比其他基因进化的要快。
研究这项发现有助于理解为何人类在过去的30000年进化速度在加快,社会环境是主要的促进因素。
研究者说这些发现不仅仅解释了人类与具有相似种族背景的人做朋友的趋势。
尽管所有研究对象都是从有欧洲血统的人中挑选,但还是要保证所有实验对象,包括朋友和陌生人都是从相同的人群中选出。
Section IIReading Comprehension Part AText 西班牙国王胡安·卡洛斯曾说“国王不会退位,他们逝世于睡眠中”。
但是最近几次欧洲大选中,丑闻盛行、共和党人大受欢迎迫使胡安·卡洛斯收回之前的言论,并被迫退位。
如此说来,西班牙的危机是否表明君主制已到穷途末路?是否意味着欧洲皇室以及他们锦衣玉食的生活走向末路已无可更改?西班牙的事例既提供了支持君主制的论据,也提供了反对君主制的论据。

Reading comprehension: (30 points)In this section there are three passages followed by a total of fifteen multiple-choice questions. Read the passages and write your answer on the answer sheet.Passage 1Lloyds TSB, the UK‟s biggest high street bank, is being forced to withdraw a memo which orders its branch staff not to switch customers into accounts that would pay them higher rates of interest. The bank will today write to every one of its 2,600 branches to “clarify” the contents of an internal memo, which tells staff it is “unacceptable” to inform current account customers that they could make better return by shifting spare cash into accounts with higher returns. The average balance in a Lloyds TSB account is understood to be 2,000 and if half of every balance was moved into an alternative instant access account operated by Lloyds, the bank would have to pay an estimated $160 million in additional interest in a year. Lloyds, which has 7 million customers and last year made more than $3 billion profit, pays 0.3 per cent interest on its current account. Its instant access account offers 3.4 per cent. The memo told staff they could lose out on incentive scheme rewards—including cash bonuses and foreign holidays—if they were caught switching cash out of low interest accounts.A spokeswoman for Lloyds TSB said the memo, entitled Key Sales and Service Objectives, was designed to improve service levels and had been “quoted out of context”. It was written by Mike Mitchell, the bank‟s national sales manager, and circulated in January. It was designed to stop its staff opening new accounts merely to receive incentive scheme points. Staff are allowed, however, to make other suggestions to customers, including selling them financial services such as unit trust investments and private health insurance, which generate substantial profits for the bank. Branch workers who successfully sell such products receive incentive scheme rewards, directlyre lated to how much profit the bank makes from them. The bank‟s spokeswoman said: “The spirit of this memo, of putting customers first, has been obfuscated by sentences which are meant to say one thing but may be interpreted as saying another.” In some cas es, she claimed, those with high sums to invest can get better returns from their existing current accounts because the interest rate rises as the balance goes up. But she admitted that the memo tells staff that all current account switches “must be initiated by the customer”, and that staff are not allowed to advise customers their money might earn better returns in alternative accounts. The only time such suggestions can be made, says the memo, is in a formal one-to-one interview with the customer. The bank insisted that the memo was designed to improve customer service, but it has angered branch staff, who believe they are being ordered not to operate in the customers‟ best interestsThe Lloyds‟ spokeswoman added: “We agree that this memo may be misinterpreted.” The bank‟s deputy chief executive, Michael Fairley, has intervened and will be rewriting the memo. 1. According to the passage, Lloyds TSB is going to withdraw its internal memo circulated in January because .[A] it has been made known to the general public[B] it has been opposed by all its customers[C] it is misinterpreted by its branch staff[D] it is considered against customers‟ best interests2. The spokeswoman for Lloyds TSB‟s comment that the memo had been “quoted out of context” could be considered .[A] a confession of the bank‟s malpractice[B] a guarantee of improvement of the bank‟s service[C] a response to criticisms of the memo[D] a hint to withdraw and rewrite the memo3. It can be concluded from the passage that according to the memo, the branch staff .[A] will get no cash bonuses if they sell private health insurance to customers[B] will receive no incentive scheme rewards if found shifting customers cash into higher interest accounts[C] cannot make any suggestions in a formal one-to-one interview with customers[D] shall never tell customers the interest rates of different accounts4. The word “obfuscated” used in paragraph 3 can be replaced by .[A] clarified [B]strengthened [C] obscured [D] weakened5. According to the passage, all of the following are true EXCEPT that .[A] the interest rate of an instant access account is higher than that of a current account[B] the interest rate can rise as the balance in an account goes up to a certain level[C] the memo does not allow account switches initiated by customers[D] the memo encourages bank workers to sell more financial services to customersPassage 2Imagine a world in which there was suddenly no emotion—a world in which human beings could feel no love or happiness, no terror or hate. Try to imagine the consequences of such a transformation. People might not be able to stay alive: knowing neither joy nor pleasure, neither anxiety nor fear, they would be as likely to repeat acts that hurt them as acts that were beneficial. They could not learn: they could not benefit from experience because this emotionless world would lack rewards and punishments. Society would soon disappear: people would be as likely to harm one another as to provide help and support. Human relationships would not exist; in a world without friends or enemies, there could be no marriage, affection among companions, or bonds among members of groups. Society‟s economic underpinnings would be destroyed: since earning would not bring enjoyment, there would be no incentive to work. In fact, there would be no incentives of any kind. For as we will see, incentives imply a capacity to enjoy them.In such a world, the chances that the human species would survive are next to zero, because emotions are the basic instrument of our survival and adaptation. Emotions structure the world for us in important ways. As individuals, we categorize objects on the basis of our emotions. True, we consider the length, shape, size, or te xture, but an object‟s physical aspects are less important than what it has done or can do to us—hurt us, surprise us, anger us or make us joyful. We also use categorizations colored by emotions in our families, communities, and overall society. Out of our emotional experiences with objects and events comes a social feeling of agreement that certain things and actions are “good” and others are “bad”, and we apply these categories to every aspect of our social life—from what foods we eat and what clothes we wear to how we keep promises and which people our group will accept. In fact, society exploits our emotional reactions and attitudes, such as loyalty, morality, pride, shame, guilt, fear and greed, in order tomaintain itself. It gives high rewards to individuals who perform important tasks such as surgery, makes heroes out of individuals for unusual or dangerous achievements such as flying fighter planes in a war, and uses the legal and penal system to make people afraid to engage in antisocial acts.6. The reason why people might not be able to stay alive in a world without emotion isthat .[A] they would not be able to tell the texture of objects[B] they would not know what was beneficial and what was harmful to them[C] they would not be happy with a life without love[D] they would do things that hurt each other‟s feelings7. According to the passage, people‟s learning activities are possible because they .[A] enjoy being rewarded for doing the right thing[B] know what is vital to the progress of society[C] believe that emotions are fundamental for them to stay alive[D] benefit from providing help and support to one another8. It can be inferred from the passage that the economic foundation of society is dependenton .[A] the ability to make money[B] the will to work for pleasure[C] the capacity to enjoy incentives[D] the categorizations of our emotional experiences9. Emotions are significant for man‟s survival and adaptation because .[A] they provide the means by which people view the size or shape of objects[B] they are the basis for the social feeling of agreement by which society is maintained[C] they encourage people to perform dangerous achievements[D] they generate more love than hate among people10. The emotional aspects of an object are more important than its physical aspects in thatthey .[A] help society exploit its members for profit[B] encourage us to perform important tasks[C] help to perfect the legal and penal system[D] help us adapt our behavior to the world surrounding usPassage 3Astronomers have witnessed the biggest bang since the big bang—the moment about 15 billion years ago when the universe was created in a massive explosion. The huge burst of energy from the edge of the universe is estimated to be second only to the moment of creation in its explosive force, releasing more energy in two seconds than the sun will give out in it lifetime. Scientists hope the explosion—known as a gamma-ray burst because it emits energy in the form of gamma radiation—will shed light on the earliest stages in the evolution of the stars and galaxies.Gamma-ray bursts cannot be seen by the human eye, but if they could the sky would light up like a camera flash each time they occurred. They are by far the most energetic events in the universe and, until now, have remained largely a mystery.The latest gamma-ray burst to be detected accurately occurred last December. Using a network of telescopes and satellites, the astronomers were able to calculate its distance from Earth at about 15 billion light years. This means it must have happened soon after the big bang itself, while the intensity of the radiation revealed it to be the biggest bang recorded by man. Scientists from the American National Aeronautics and Space Administration and the California Institute of Technology are to announce details of their analysis this week. The huge distance between the source of the explosion and the Earth suggests gamma-ray bursts are up to 10 times larger than previously thought, said Jonathan Katz, professor of physics at Washington University in St Louis. “Gamma-ray bursts may be the most distant things we will ever see and as such will act as beacons to probe into the very distant regions of the universe when stars and galaxies were first formed.”American spy satellites looking for the radiation released from Soviet nuclear tests first detected gamma-ray bursts in 1967 but the details were kept classified until 1973. For nearly 25 years scientists were hampered in their efforts to find an explanation for the huge explosions because they lasted no longer than a few seconds. The inability to explain them led to speculation that gamma-ray bursts were the remnants of nuclear battles between alien civilizations, or even the exhaust energy of extraterrestrial spaceships going into warp drive. Two satellites, the American Compton gamma-ray observatory and the Italian-Dutch Bepposax satellite, have now been able to locate the precise direction of gamma-ray bursts within seconds of them occurring. John Quenby, professor of physics at Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine in London, said the most likely explanation for gamma-ray burst is that they result from the enormous energy released when two very dense objects—called neutron stars—collide.11. According to the passage, “the big bang” is used to express all of the followingEXCEPT .[A] the huge energy burst which created the universe[B] the energy burst which took place in the center of the universe[C] the explosion which took place in the form of gamma radiation[D] the explosion which happened about 15 billion years ago12. According to the passage, gamma-ray bursts .[A] were detected accidentally[B] were first detected by Soviet nuclear experts[C] were made known to the public after 1973[D] were soon given clear and detailed explanation13. It can be concluded from the passage that the study of the big bang will probably .[A] lead to the discovery of earliest human civilizations[B] tell how and when the universe was formed[C] display the intensity of nuclear radiation[D] make it possible to communicate with other civilizations14. Which of the following is NOT directly stated but can be inferred from the passage?[A] Gamma-ray explosion is very, very far away from the Earth.[B] Scientists believe that the universe was formed out of the big bang.[C] Gamma-ray bursts lasted only a very short period of time.[D] Scientists are still working hard to find more plausible explanation for the big bang.15. Which of the following can be used as the best title of the passage?[A] Gamma-ray Bursts and Nuclear Ears between Alien Civilizations.[B] Astronomy and the Creation of Universe.[C] Big Bang Theory Explains the Mystery of Universe.[D] Big Bang II Sheds Light on Evolution of Universe.Part Two English-Chinese Translation (30 points)Translate the following passages into Chinese. Each translated passage will account for 15 points. Give the number of the passage on your answer sheet.Passage 1For the great majority of automobile workers, the only meaning of the job is in the pay check, not in anything connected with the work or the product. Work appears as something unnatural, a disagreeable, meaningless and stultifying condition of getting the pay check, devoid of dignity as well as of importance. No wonder that this puts a premium on slovenly work, on slowdowns, and on other tricks to get the same pay check with less work. No wonder that this results in an unhappy and discontented worker—because a pay check is not enough to base one…s self-respect on.Passage 2One morning when he was walking out in the hills a girl passed him, then slowed her car to ask if she could give him a lift. Claude would have said that she was just the sort who would never stop to pick him up, --yet she did, and she talked to him pleasantly all the way back to town. It was only twenty minutes or so, but it was worth everything else that happened on his trip. When she asked him where she should put him down, he said at the Antlers, and blushed so furiously that she must have known at once he wasn‟t staying there.Part Three Chinese-English Translation (30 points)Translate the following passage into English:中华文明以其顽强的凝聚力和隽永的魅力,历经沧桑,完整地延续下来。

《汉语写作与百科知识》样题第一部分百科知识(50’)请简要解释以下段落中划线部分的知识点1.这次股市波动在全球都有一定的关联影响,这说明全球化在逐步进展。
过去中国认为自己的市场是一个相对比较小型的市场,也是一个正在建设中的、比较幼年的市场,或者说是在转轨经济中逐步发展的新兴市场。
由于全球经济一体化的进展,股市波动相互之间关联密切,这也说明中国的市场还需要加速发展,我们要进一步提高直接融资的比重,进一步把资本市场建设得更好、更快、更加国际化。
关于流动性过剩问题。
流动性偏多是全球的现象,中国也存在流动性偏多的问题。
美国财政赤字那么大,它那儿的流动性也很丰富,产油国资金也很丰富。
因此,资金面上的宽松是全球一体化之下相互影响的现象。
宏观调控当局都应该重视这个问题,做好自己的工作,对于过剩的流动性应该采取稳健的、适当收缩的政策。
2.端午原是个防病防灾的日子,却因大诗人屈原增添了纪念层面的意义,增添了爱国情怀和报国无门的悲情、齐心协力救助生命的悲壮;因了陶渊明酷爱重阳,因了他酷爱的菊的勾连,重阳节衍生了“颂陶”的文化意蕴,歌颂他“人淡如菊”的精神境界,“重阳无酒”也成了知识分子安贫乐道的形象写真。
3.1994年起,比尔·盖茨开始了他的收藏爱好。
作为拥有600亿美元财富的收藏者,盖茨想买什么就可以买什么,而他购买艺术品似乎也完全凭个人的兴趣,没有明确的学术或商业性目标。

These three genres have many common characteristics. All are art forms, each with its own requirements of structure and style. In varying degrees, all the genres are dramatic and imaginative; they have at least some degree of action, or are based in part on dramatic situations.Imaginative literature differs from textbooks, historical and biographical works, and news articles, all of which describe or interpret facts. While literature is related to the truths of human life, it may be based on situations that have never occurred, and which may never occur. This is not to say that imaginative literature is not truthful, but rather that its truth is to life and human nature, not necessarily to the detailed world of reportorial, scientific, and historical facts in which we all live.Although the three main genres have much in common, they also differ in many ways. Prose fiction, or narrative fiction, is in prose form and includes novels, short stories, myths, parables, romances, and epics. These works generally focus on one or a few major characters who undergo some kind of change as they meet other characters or deal with problems or difficulties in their lives. Poetry, in contrast to prose fiction, is much more economical in the use of words, and it relies heavily on imagery,figurative language, rhythm and sound. Drama(or plays)is the form of literature designed to be performed by actors. Like fiction, drama may focus on a single character or a small number of characters, and it presents fictional events as if they were happening in the present, to be witnessed by a group of people composing an audience. Some dramas employ much of the imagery, rhythm, and sound of poetry.32 It must be stressed that a characteristic aspect of the present time is that science is exercising a decisive influence on technology, creating new problems for it, guiding its development and conditioning its progress. As a result, science is tending to become a direct force of industry. Scientific theories penetrate technological processes.In its turn, the development of science is strongly influenced by the astounding progress of modern technology, which places at its disposal previously undreamed of means; apparatus of high precision and of tremendous power, such as particle accelerators, nuclear reactors, electronic computers, etc. The improvement of industrial technology makes possible the realization of high intensity phenomena such as pressure, temperature, very high tension or nearly ideal conditions of vacuum, often indispensable to accurate experimental results.Science does not, generally, affect industry directly but does so through the intermediary of technology which places at industry's disposal new improved and powerful machines that increase the productivity of labor. It improves technological processes, introduces new forms of energy, creates new materials not provided by nature, introduces new and varied means of transport, communication and telecommunication control and tele-control. All these means amazingly increase the productivityof labor by substituting human force for those of nature.The raising of the technical level of industry, therefore, constitutes a major imperative of our time presented to science, which finds itself in the vanguard of social progress.汉译英33 提起新加坡,许多中国人会联想到高效政府、良好秩序、美食、旅游胜地——这些正面的标签已被不少游记、随笔、考察报告贴在了这个接近赤道的岛国身上。

7月中旬的一天,我从夏日炎炎的北京飞抵樟宜机场,来到心仪已久的岛国,开始了新加坡之旅。
作为一个国家,新加坡很小,小到你只需几天就能游遍她所有的景点。
但作为一个多种族并存、高度开放的社会,新加坡很大,大到能够容纳各种文化在这里并行繁衍。
几天的走马观花下来,即使用最挑剔的眼光,我对新加坡的基本评价也还是一个简单的字:好。
用一句话说就是:这个年轻的国家,实实在在地取得了物质文明和精神文明建设的双丰收。
