UNIT7P211 words1.immediate2.essential3.debating4.cited5.hence6. obligation7.distinct8.logical9.vital 10.revolution11.unburden 12. privilegeP212 Expressions1.attend to2.be carried away3.fell into4.broken off5.were summoned up6.be put in touch withP217 ClozeLin Yutang believes that reading is among the charms of a cultured life and is respected and envied by those who don't read. When we compare (1) the life of a man who does no reading with that of a man who does, we can understand (2) why he thinks so.Generally, one who does not have the habit of reading is limited (3) to contact and conversation with a few friends and acquaintances (4), and he sees only what happens in his immediate neighborhood. But the moment he takes up a book, he immediately enters (5) a different world. If it happens to be a good book, he is immediately put in touch (6) with one of the best talkers of the world. This talker leads him into a different country or a different age, even discusses with him some special (7) line or aspect of life that the reader knows nothing about.Lin agrees with Huang Shanku, a Sung poet (8), in that reading gives a man a certain charm and flavor, which is the entire object (9) of reading, and only reading with this object can be called an art. One does not understand the art of reading if he forces (10) himself to read.According to Huang Shanku, the key to reading is to cultivate (11) people's personal charm of appearance and flavor in speech. Whether one has "flavor" or not inhis talk depends (12) on his method of reading. If a reader gets the flavor of books, he will show that flavor in his conversations, and if he has flavor in his conversations, he will also have a flavor in his writing.Reading is an act consisting (13) of two sides, the author and the reader. The net gain comes as much from the reader's contribution (14) through his own insight and experience as from the author's own. The most critical event in one's intellectual(15) development is to find his favorite author. If one cannot find one, he will fail to get any good out of reading.P218-219 Translation1.Under the circumstances of promoting socialist market economy in China, it is necessary to strengthen the management of accounting information quality.2. Professor Lin cited the stories about/of Washington and Lincoln to show the importance of honesty/being honest.3.People living in desert don’t have enough water to drink, let alone use water to irrigate land.4. Doctor Wang has the habit of making/taking notes in the margin when (he is) reading.5.It is interesting that as time goes, some words which fell into disuse may sometimes revive with new meanings.7. College students should be brave enough to face all the difficulties in their lives, and overcome them with confidence.8. The sanitary conditions of the area have deteriorated to such an extent that there is danger of diseases at any time.9.Extensive investigation and interview put Miss Smith in touch with people of the country and their lifestyles.10. It is true that we’ve made some progress in our work but we must take care not to be carried away by our achievements.UNIT8P244 Words1.ensure2.exclude3.sustain4.domestic5.fundamental6.transparent7.elastic8.inherent9.input 10.margin11.reverse 12.potential 13.subsidies 14.restored 15 features 16.urgedP245 Expressions1.is based on2.lived up to3.account for4.has borne out5.slow down6.act on7.cash in on 8 regardless of 9.on top of 10.at their peril11.in part in part 12.in the name of 13.torn downP251 ClozeIn his speech "A Plea for an 'Inclusive' Globalization", Annan suggests one way to address the new division between those who benefit from globalization and those who simply see it as one more manifestation (1) of the inequity of the world, namely, topursue an inclusive globalization. He contends that the purpose of an inclusive globalization lies (2) not only in opening markets but in expanding opportunity and promoting (3) cooperation.Annan appeals to us to tear down the walls in our own minds (4) so that we are able to recognize (5) the untold ways in which we can all benefit (6) from cooperation and solidarity across lines of nationality, race or economic (7) development. He holds that the poor, the disenfranchised or those who are denied (8) basic right to liberty and self-determination cannot continue to be excluded (9). Otherwise, no country can hope to secure lasting peace and prosperity (10).Annan believes that nations can act on this imperative (11) by opening markets for the products of developing countries; by increasing development assistance (12); by promoting good and transparent governance; by tackling diseases and environmental problems; by recognizing obligations to provide asylum; by fostering (13) a more orderly process of integrating migrants; and by valuing pluralism as a top priority for every state.Annan maintains that dialogue can triumph (14) over discord, that diversity is a universal virtue, and that the peoples of the world are far more united by their common fate than they are divided by their separate (15) identities. This dialogue must take place within and between civilizations, cultures and groups.P252-253 Translation1.Those people yearn for the days in the past because they don't think they can benefit from the current policies.2.Terrorists will make no distinction between races, nations or regions when they carry out acts of terror.3. The invention of paper was one of the great contributions of Ancient China to human civilization, and we should take pride of it.4.The teacher suggested that the students analyze these problems in a different light so as to find a solution as soon as possible.5.In recent years, some developed countries have been robbing developing countries of their natural resources in the name of globalization.6.Legal English is a special register of English. Its distinctive features distinguish it from literary language and other practical style.7.The company cashed in on its rivals’ difficulties by doubling its investment in this area/region.8.When he wrote The Declaration of Independence, Thomas Jefferson was firm in the belief that all men were created equal.9.He has served the public heart and soul for many years, regardless of his personal gain or loss.10.Experts has long been concerned about the implications of population growth for economic development of the world.This modern lifeAs is shown in the above picture, people sit in front of the computer day and night. Even in their dreams they’re still playing computer games. Such thought-provoking phenomenon is, especially among young people, prevail ing in our modern life.It’s true that the computer has brought great convenience to our modern life. However, as is illustrated in the picture, the overuse of it may lead to several bad consequences. To begin with, there is evidence that long-term exposure to electromagnetic radiation emitted from computers may cause many health problems, like insomnia, headaches, and even cancer. In addition, when people immerse himself in the world of computer, they tend to pay less attention to the surroundings, and excessive use of the computer means much less chance of face-to-face interactions with people who populate their real lives.In conclusion, while computers have contribute a lot to making our life more convenient, we should use them appropriately.Parents’ Role in Their Children’s GrowthThe picture jumping into my sight is extremely compelling. We can observe from it that there is a hot debate going on about parents' role in children's growth between mother and her daughter saying that "I was accepted to the college of your choice" In line with my personal thinking, children should realize that correct roads ought to be a must in learning by themselves rather than parents.Recently, children are always considered as the apple of parents' eye, which is particularly true in modern families with an only child in china. That is to say, it is high time that we should take some positive and effective actions to cope with it. For parents, they should keep a close watch on the instruction social skills, focusing on independent thinking and feasible methods to their kids. For children, without any help of parents, we must learn more for the job and future life, be a man having a sharp and imaginative mind with different knowledge.From my perspective as a college student, independent thinking, rather than parents' mind, may bring to us many advantages, such as encouraging us to take an active part in social practice and putting more pressures on youngsters to improve abilities. Only by doing so can we have access to a satisfactory result.。

But these various means of communication differ in important ways human language. For instance, animals’ cries do not thoughts and feelings clearly. This means, basically, that they lack structure. They lack the kind of structure that enables us to divide a human utterance into speeches.We can change an utterance by one word in it with another: a good illustration of this is a soldier who can say, e.g., “tanks approaching from the north”, and who can change one word and say “aircraft approaching from the north” or “tanks approaching from the west”; but a bird has a single alarm cry,means “danger!”This is why the number of signals that an animal can make is very limited: the great tit (山雀) is a case point; it has about twenty different calls, whereas in human language the number of possible utterances is boundless. It also explains why animal cries are very in meaning.1. （）A. classificationB. definitionC. functionD. perception2. （）A. nativeB. humanC. physicalD. animal3. （）A. waysB. meansC. methodsD. approaches4. （）A. identicalB. similarC. differentD. unfamiliar5. （）A. aboutB. withC. fromD. in6. （）A.

'I.Q.' stands for Intelligence Quotient which is a measure of a person's intelligence found by means of an intelligence test. Before marks gained in such a test can be useful as information about a person, they must be compared with some standard, or norm. It is not enough simply to know that a boy of thirteen has scored, say, ninety marks in a particular test. To know whether he is clever, average or dull, his marks must be compared with the average achieved by boys of thirteen in that test.In 1906 the psychologist, Alfred Binet (1857--1911), devised the standard in relation to which intelligence has since been assessed. Binet was asked to find a method of selecting all children in the schools of Paris who should be taken out of ordinary classes and put in special classes for defectives. The problem brought home to him the need for a standard of intelligence, and he hit upon the very simple concept of ' mental age. 'First of ail, he invented a variety of tests and put large numbers of children of different ages through them. He then found at what age each test was passed by the average child. For instance, he found that the average child of seven could count backwards from 20 to 1 and the average child of three could repeat the sentence:" We are going to have a good time in the country. "Billet arranged the various tests in order of difficulty, and used them as a scale against which he could measure every individual. If, for example, a boy aged twelve could only do tests that were passed by the average boy of nine, Binet held that he was three years below average, and that he had a mental age of nine.The concept of mental age provided Binet, and through him, other psychologists, with the required standard. It enabled him to state scores in intelligence tests in terms of a norm. At first, it was usual to express the result of a test by the difference between the 'mental' and the 'chronological' age. Then the boy in the example given would be'three years retarded'. Soon, however, the 'mental ratio' was introduced; that is to say, the ratio of the mental age to the chronological age. Thus a boy of twelve with a mental age of nine has a mental ratio of 0.75.The mental age was replaced by the 'intelligence quotient' or 'I.Q.'. The ' I. Q.' is the mental ratio multiplied by 100.

Passage ASometimes most people feel lonely, but it only lasts between a few minutes and a few hours. This kind of loneliness is not serious. In fact, it is quite normal for some people. However, sometimes loneliness can last for years. Now researchers say there are three different types of loneliness.The first kind of loneliness is temporary. This is the most common type. It usually disappears quickly and does not require any special attention.The second kind, situational loneliness, is a natural result of aparticular situation, for example, a family problem. the death of a loved one or moving to a new place. Although this kind of loneliness can cause physical problems, such as headaches and sleeplessness, it usually does not last for more than a year.The third kind of loneliness is the most severs. Unlike the second type, chronic (长期的) loneliness usually lasts more than two years and has no specific cause. People who experience habitual loneliness have problems socializing and becoming close to others. Unfortunately, many chronically lonely people think there is little or nothing they can do to improve their condition. Psychologists are trying to find ways to help habitually lonely people for two reasons; they are unhappy and unable to socialize and there is a connection between chronic loneliness and serious illness such as heart disease. While temporary and situational loneliness can be a normal healthy part of life, chronic loneliness can be a very sad and sometimes dangerous condition.16. How would you treat temporary loneliness according to the passage? A. Talk to friends. B. Just ignore it.C. Go to see a doctor.D. Ask your teachers for guidance.17. “It” in the last sentence of the second paragraph refers to________. A. temporary loneliness B. situationallonelinessC. a new placeD. sleeplessness18. The topic of the 4 paragraph isthat_______.A. one problem of loneliness is a person’s social contactsB. we depend on various people for different reasonsC. lonely people don’t have many social problemsD. lonely people don’t have many friends19. Why do psychologists want to help chronically lonely people?A. Chronic loneliness can cause family problems.B. Chronic loneliness can cause serious illness.C. Chronic loneliness can not be overcome.D. A, B, and C are all correct.20. What is the best title for the passage?A. Three Kinds of Loneliness.B. Loneliness and Diseases.C. Loneliness and Social Contacts.D. Chronic Loneliness.Passage BI had just gone to bed after a very hard day when the phone rang. It was an eccentric (怪僻的)farmer. I had never met him before although I had often heard people talk about him. He sounded quite nervous and he had been talking for aminute or so before I understood anything. Even then all I could make out was that someone called Milly had a very bad accident. I hadn't the slightest idea who she was but I obviously had to go.It had been snowing heavily that day and I didn't know the way. I had been driving for at least an hour when I finally found his place. He was standing there, waiting for me. It seemed Milly had died. “She meant more to me than anyone…even my own wife!” he said. I could see that he had been crying. I thought something terrible had taken place, a possible scandal. I was even more shocked when he told me he had put her in the barn. “I wouldn't leave her out in the cold!” he said.Milly had clearly been a secret lover of his. I was about to tell him he could not expect me to cover anything up when he opened the barn door. He lifted his candle and I saw a dark figure on the ground. “She was such a good cow! I wouldn't let anyone but a doctor touch her!” he said, and burst into tears again.21.

2)难以程度和《大学英语》（1，2）相当，所以不要盲目放弃而乱选答案。
3)在《大学英语》2级阶段，大部分阅读理解材料不会太长，问题涉及的机关也不会太多。
切忌按自己的经验或知识选答案。
4)在有些单词不认识的情况下，可根据上下文猜测意思并选出答案，或根据所给的问题找到原文答案可能出现的地方，直观选择答案即可。
5)简答题往往会有小机关，或让你总结全文的大意，或让你归类，或让你推理，要前后兼顾，切忌只回答了问题的一部分而忽略了前面或后面相关的信息。
简答题请同学们一定不要轻言放弃，认真阅读原文很容易找到答案！以下面的Passage 为列说明。
考试共三篇文章。
PassageIt‟s not easy to be an astronaut‟s son. Everybody expects you to be special or perfect. I often wonder how my father ever had a son like me. I mean he is so special and so good at everything he does. Even in middle school he was class president and captain of the football team. Well, to be honest, I often dream about being some kind of hero or doing something special—like saving a child from a burning building or discovering a new star. I was daydreaming at school one morning when my teacher said there would be a Father‟s D ay writing competition for the whole school. “I hope we have a winner right here in my class.”When I got home, I started to think about what to write. My father is an astronaut. No, I wouldn‟t start like that. That was the way others saw him. How did I see my father? Hmm. I saw him sitting with me in the dark when I had a terrible dream. I remembered how he hugged me for hours when my dog Spotty was killed by a car. Yes, these were the things I was going to write. To me, he wasn‟t just a world-famous astronaut. He was my dad.My parents and I went to school Thursday night. There were so many people in the big hall! My dad looked at me, and I shrugged.The third prize was announced and it was not me. I was relieved and disappointed at the same time. The second prize was announced. It was me.I went up to the stage and read what I had written, “My father‟s son”. When I finished, the people stood up and cheered. I saw my father blowing his nose. Tears were running down my mothe r‟s face. Dad cleared his throat and put his hand on my shoulder. “Son, this is the proudest moment of my life.”It was the proudest moment of my life, too. Maybe I‟ll never be a great hero or win a Nobel Prize, but it was enough just to be my fat her‟s son.1. The writer felt it ________ to be the son of a famous person.a. 1uckyb. naturalc. hardd. pleasant答案： c解题：第一句话It‟s not easy to be an astronaut‟s son 里的not easy即hard2.
