Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A,B,C and D.You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the ANSWER SHEET with a single line through the center.Questions 36~40 are based on the following passage.It is an everyday observation that animals are born,grow,and mature then begin to lose some of their capabilities, and finally die. This loss of capabilities is progressive, irreversible(不可改变的) ,and common for all members of a species and is called aging.In humans it shows in many ways,some very visible:decline in height,shrinkage of muscle, thinning and graying of hair, and wrinkling of skin.Internally, and even more significantly, there is the progressive loss of cells in the brain, kidneys, and other vital organs.This cell loss has resulted in stoppage of a vital process. Whatever the reason,important tissues ranging from the muscles to the brain shrink and become less competent with age.Many of these changes are reflected in functional declines.Not only do nerve cells at levels from the brain to the spinal cord diminish, but also those that remain conduct impulses at a slower rate so that the reaction time of the older animal is slowed.Memory often shows a decline.Another widespread decline is in the loss of cells involved in thehearing process.The loss is most marked for high pitches and may require the assistance of a battery-operated hearing aid.More subtle are such declines as those in the processes involved with being immune to disease, which result in a lessened ability of the older organism to cope with infection.Indeed,pneumonia(肺炎) is one of the most common causes of death among the elderly population of most nations.Mixed with true aging processes are disease processes that may be so common as to be mistaken for aging.For instance, the buildup of deposits of fatty materials in arteries (动脉) tends to be progressive with aging; everything else being equal,the narrowing of arteries results in such serious illnesses as stroke or heart attack,occurring with increasing frequency as an individual ages.It is now recognized that atherosclerosis (动脉硬化) is the result of many factors,not only genetic but also environmental high blood pressure,high saturated-fat diets,and smoking, the effects of which become more obvious with the passage of time .It is therefore an age related,but not a universal aging process and can thus usually be controlled.36.As far as aging is concerned, _____ .A.the changes inside human body are more important than externalchangesB.the loss of competence is more significant than that of cellsC.the shrinkage of muscles is more significant than the decline inheightD.the thinning of hair is less important than the wrinkling of skin37.Which of the following is a functional decline?A.The reduction in brain nerve cells.B.The decline in memory.C.The loss of cells in hearing process.D.The shrinkage in muscle tissue.38.Pneumonia is closely related to _____ .A.the decline in cells of the spinal chordB.the slower rate of reactionC.the decline in the immune systemD.the loss of cells in kidneys39.It is agreed that a person is more likely to suffer fromatherosclerosis _____ .A.as he becomes olderB.if his immune system does not work properlyC.when the cells of his brain and spinal chord declineD.when the cells in his kidneys decline in number40.Which of the following statements about atherosclerosis is NOT true?A.If a parent suffers from it, it is most likely that the child alsodoes.B.If a person has high blood pressure, he is more likely tocontract(患)it.C.If a person smokes,he is most likely to contract it.D.If the environmental factors are properly controlled,it will beprevented.Questions 41~45 are based on the following passage.A report of a “shooting” created a major stir and a minor mystery yesterday afternoon when police cars and emergency vehicles gathered on the 1000 block of Anta Barbara Street.After questioning numerous witnesses,officers reconstructed this chain of events,according to Sergeant Nick Katzenstein.About 2 p.m. an elderly man was walking along the sidewalk when he came upon three young women sitting on a wall next to a market. One of the women-boyish looking with short hair-was showing the others something that looked like a puncture mark on her upper arm.The man said,“are you all right?”but got no answer.So he continued on until he met a woman friend and told her that a boy near the market was getting a shot. The woman misunderstood.She telephoned police and reported that a boy was being shot.That brought several officers in police cars, firemen in a rescue truck and doctors in an ambulance with siren blaring to the scene.Officers couldn t find either a victim or the woman who had reported the shooting.They questioned the three young women sitting on the wall. An auto had backfired (回火) in the parking lot,one of the threerecalled .Perhaps that was the “shot”.Several other people were questioned,but none could shed light on the shooting.Finally officers found the woman who had made the report. She directed them to the “boy” on the wall, who then recalled having showed her friends a newly received “shot” (注射) on her arm as the elderly man was walking past.41.The “shooting” reported yesterday _____ .A.went unnoticedB.caused great troubleC.attracted public attentionD.caused great tension42.Why did the man ask the “boy”:“Are you all right?”A.Because the “boy” told the other two girls that she was shoton the arm.B.Because he saw the “boy” looked pale when he went past.C.Because he heard a shot and saw a mark on the “boy's” arm.D.Because the “boy” showed him a puncture mark on her arm.43.When the police asked other people on the scene, _____ .A.they remembered there was a backfire from a carB.they said they did not remember any shotC.they told the police to ask the three girlsD.they remembered the old man had said something44.It turned out what was considered as a shot was _____ .A.fired by a gun in the parking lotB.a story made up by the old manC.a story made up by the womanD.a loud sound given out by a car45.The passage is _____ .A.a news reportB.an newspaper commentaryC.an essayD.a humorous storyQuestions 46~50 are based on the following passage.The 15th and 16th centuries were a period of radicalsocial,political,and intellectual developments. The explorations of the world; the Reformation, with its emphasis on individual faith; the rise of commercial urban society; and the dramatic appearance of new ideas in all areas of culture stimulated the development of a new philosophical world view. The medieval view of the world as a hierarchical (层次的) order of beings created and governed by God was replaced by the mechanistic picture of the world as a vast machine, the parts of which move according to strict physical laws, without purpose or will. The aim of human life was no longer looked on as preparation for salvation (拯救) in the next world, but rather as the satisfaction of people's naturaldesires. Political organizations and moral principles ceased to be regarded as reflections of God's command and came to be seen as practical devices created by humans. In this new philosophical view, experience and reason became the sole standards of truth.The first great spokesman for the new philosophy was the English philosopher and statesman Francis Bacon, who attacked reliance on authority and verbal argument and criticized Aristotlian (亚里士多德的) logic as useless for the discovery of new laws. Bacon called for a new scientific method based on inductive generalization from careful observation and experiment. He was the first to formulate rules of inductive inference.The work of Italian physicist and astronomer Galileo was of evengreater importance in the development of a new world view. Galileo brought attention to the importance of applying mathematics to the formulation of scientific laws. This he accomplished by creating the science of mechanics, which applied the principles of geometry to the motions of bodies. The success of mechanics in discovering reliable and useful laws of nature suggested to Galileo and to later scientists that all nature is designed according to mechanical laws.46.The new philosophical world view was that _____ .A.the world was hierarchical with man at the bottomB.the world was a hierarchical order of beings created and governedby GodC.the world was built on strict mechanical physical lawsD.the world was a giant machine which man was unwilling to build47.Before the 15th and 16th century, moral principles _____ .A.were stricter than lawsB.were looked on as God's ordersC.were seen as practical devicesD.were regarded as people's natural desires48.What was the first step in the new philosophy?A.Inference.B.Generalization.C.Authority and verbal argument.D.Observation and experiment.49.According to the new philosophy, truth should be judged by _____ .A.moral standardsB.its practicalityC.experience and reasonD.all of the above50.Galileo _____ .A.brought people's attention to mathematicsB.was the greatest contributor to the new world viewC.formulated reliable and useful laws of natureD.applied geometry to the motions of starsQuestions 51~55 are based on the following passage.The first contests resembling the World Series were held during the 1880s, when the leading baseball clubs of the two major leagues-the National League and the American Association-agreed to play in exhibition games following their regular seasons.The name “World Championship Series” arose during this period,when promoters and journalists soughtto arouse interest among fans.These championship series were often unsuccessful,marked by disorganization,weak fan support,and disputes among baseball clubs.The series was not held every year and ended completely after the 1891 season, when the American Association broke up. The American League was founded in 1901 and became the chief competitor of the National League.The first World Series was held in 1903,when Barney Dreyfuss,owner of the NL champion Pittsburgh Pirates,challenged Henry Killilea,owner of the AL champion Boston Pilgrims,to a best of nine game series.The first game was played in Boston , Massachusetts,on October 1,before a crowd of more than 16000 fans.The 1903 World Series was a tremendous success.Thousands of fans attended every game,traveling by train between the two cities, and the players responded with exciting performances.The following year, however,the series was not held.In 1904 the Boston Pilgrims were scheduled to play the New York Giants.But Giants owner John T.Brush and manager John J.McGraw had quarreled repeatedly with the founder and president of the American League, Ban Johnson.As a result, the Giants refused to play. Public criticism was so great that the Giants, who were again NL champions the next year,agreed to play the AL champion Philadelphia Athletics in the 1905 World Series.The two leagues created an agreement that became the foundation for modern World Series competition.The Giants won the series in five games.The most famous World Series in history took place in 1919,when the Cincinnati Reds beat the Chicago White Sox in eight games.The following year,seven White Sox players were accused of fixing,or intentionally losing, the series in return for bribes from professional gamblers.The seven players were banned from baseball for life. Buck Weaver, who did not take a bribe,was banned because he knew of the fix and did not report it. The 1919 team became known as the Black Sox.51.The first World Series took place _____ .A.in 1903B.in 1880sC.in 1919D.in 190552.Which of the following was NOT a factor that made the series in the1880s unsuccessful?A.The American League was not created yet then.B.Some clubs quarreled with each other.C.People did not show much interest in such series.D.The series were not well organized.53.Why was the 1904 Series not held?A.Because the Series was not exciting enough.B.Because both of the teams involved refused to play.C.Because one team involved disagreed about some matters.D.Because the two teams involved quarreled about the schedule ofthe Series54.The public was dissatisfied in 1904 and 1905 because _____ .A.the World Series was not as well organized as expectedB.the Giants should be the champion of 1905C.the two leagues did not reach an agreement earlierD.the 1904 Series was not held because of personal disputes55.The public called the 1919 White Sox team Black Sox because _____ .A.it lost the 1919 SeriesB.it took money from the opponent teamC.all its members were involved in briberyD.seven of its members took money from gamblersQuestions 56~60 are based on the following passage.Dog shows are divided into benched and unbenched events involving one or more breeds, groups, and classes of purebred dogs. At benched shows, before and after judging, the dogs are displayed to the public on benches or platforms set up in individual stalls. At unbenched shows the dogs are exhibited in judging rings and around the grounds of the event. In all dog shows, the breeds are divided into seven groups-sporting,hound, working, herding, terrier, toy, and nonsporting.The standards for judging the entries differ with eachbreed. Typical criteria include shape of head, placement of ears,color, gait, and texture of coat. Dogs entered in a particular class are taken into the judging ring by their owners or handlers.After the dogs have been gaited, or walked at different speeds, and examined by the judge, they are placed in classes. The dogs placed first in each of the classes compete for winners, who receive points toward their championship based on the number of dogs in their particular breed that have been in competition at the show. To become an official AKC show champion, a dog must accumulate 15 championship points under at least three different judges. Dogs that attain their championships are entitled to have the two letters “Ch”carried be fore their name.Following the judging of the winners,classes, dogs that already have won their championship compete, along with the winners for best of breed and best of opposite sex. Each best of breed competes in its respective group, and the dog placed first in each of the seven groups competes for the award “best in show ,”which is the final judging at any allbreed dog show.56.Benched events in dog shows _____ .e benches during the performance of the dogsB.divide the participant dogs into different breedse platforms for dogs to jump on and off during performanceD.aim to place dogs into different groups57.To become an AKC show champion, a dog _____ .A.has to win at least 45 championship pointsB.has to be placed first in each of the classesC.has to wear the proper kind of coat made by its ownerD.has to win 15 championship points under three different judges58.The letters “Ch”(the last sentence in paragraph 2) most probablystand for _____ .A.championshipB.championC.challengerD.charm59.The last step in an allbreed dog show is _____ .A.to hold the closing ceremonyB.to compete for the award “best in show”C.to compete for an official AKC show championD.to compete for getting a “Ch”before the dog s name60.What is the subject matter of the passage?A.Dog racing.B.Allbreed dog shows.C.Dogs as pets.D.Benched dog shows.Questions 61~65 are based on the following passage.On November 30 a Russian attack destroyed the Turkish fleet at the Black Sea port of Sinope, resulting in a public outcry in Britain and France.In March 1854, after Russia ignored their demand to retreated from Moldavia and Walachia, Britain and France declared war. They were later joined by the Italian kingdom of Sardinia who,needing help in their plans to drive out Austria from the smaller Italian kingdoms, hoped to gain favor with Great Britain and France. On June 3, Austria, to Russia's dismay, threatened to declare war unless Russia retreated its troops from Moldavia and Walachia. Russia complied on August 5,and Austrian troops occupied the territory.The allies then decided on a campaign against Sevastopol in the Crimea, headquarters of Russia's Black Sea Fleet,and their forces landed in the Crimea in September 1854. Despite bloody victories over theRussians at the Alma River, Balaklava, and Inkerman, the war went on, as the Russians refused to accept the allies peace terms. Finally, on September 9,1855,Sevastopol fell, but only after Austria threatened to enter the war did Russia agree to make peace.The Treaty of Paris, signed on March 30,1856,was a major setback for Russia's Middle Eastern policy. Russia was forced to return southern Bessarabia and the mouth of the Danube to Turkey; Moldavia,Walachia, and Serbia were placed under an international rather than a Russian guarantee and the Russians were forbidden to maintain a navy on the Black Sea. In military terms, the war was a tactless, needlessly costly affair. The commanders on both sides proved remarkably unsuitable, wasting lives in senseless engagements. Supply services for both armies were affected by inefficiency and corruption, and medical services were terrible. The British nurse Florence Nightingale won fame by her efforts to improve the care of the sick and wounded, but more men died of disease than in battle.Nevertheless, the war was an event of major significance in European history.61.Why did Italy go to the war?A.Because it wanted to please Britain and France.B.Because it was urged by Britain and France.C.Because Austria forced it to do so.D.Because Russia threatened to invade it.62.When Austria was to declare war _____ .A.Russia retreated its troopsB.Russia felt dismayedC.Moldavia and Walachia gave it their territoriesD.Russia had already been driven out by France and Britain63.In September 1858, Russia accepted the allies's peace terms when_____ .A.Austria went into warB.the allies won over Russia at the Alma RiverC.the allies defeated Russia's Black Sea FleetD.Austria threatened to declare war on it64.According to the Treaty of Paris, _____ .A.Russia retreated its troops completely from the Middle EastB.Russia gave back some land it took from TurkeyC.Russia could keep its fleet on the Black SeaD.Russia promised to give Moldavia permanent peace65.Why did Russia lose the Crimean War?A.Because Austria went into war.B.Because the allies were too strong.C.Because its army commanders were incompetent.D.Because many of its soldiers died of disease.Part IV Cloze Test (15 minutes, 10 points)Directions:There are 20 blanks in the following passage.

Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Passage OneDuring Tokyo’s morning rush hour, a train pulled int o a subway station, and coughing passengers, complaining of a terrible odor, piled out quickly. Stationmaster Tsuneo Hishinuma rushed in and found a plastic bag leaking clear liquid. Hishinuma took the bag to an office and phoned for help. He was found on the floor, foaming at the mouth and left this world. Within minutes, five packed trains had pulled into the station with similar packages with a deadly poison that evaporates into gas. The March 20, 1995, attack killed 12 and sent 5500 to hospitals. The criminals were members of an association called Shinrikyo, which was formed in 1987 to convince it people that the end of the world is at hand.In the United States, shocked by super-terrorism, the Congress has authorized $65 million to establish regional response units and train local emergency workers in anti-terrorist chemical and biological incidents. The FBI’s hostage-rescue team has been expanded. Such efforts must continue because we are really unprepared. In April 1995, when New York simulated a Tokyo-style subway gas attack, over 100 emergency personnel arriving at the scene were declared “dead.”A reward may have helped capture the world’s most dangerous terrorist, Ramzi Ahmed Yousef, who is accused of masterminding the World Trade Center bomb explosion. The FBI advertised a $2 million reward for his capture. In January 1995 Yousef was mixing explosives in his kitchen in Manilawhen his mixture began to smoke, attracting firefighters and police. They found a computer file detailing an elaborate plot to blow up a dozen American airliners in a two-day period. But Yousef had disappeared. A month later U.S agents burst into Yousef’s room and arrested him. A federal jury last September convicted Yousef for plotting to bomb the American airliners; he faces life in prison without parole.As Alecksandr Solzhenitsyn, FBI officer said, “All forms of terrorism have been spreading because everyone is ready to raise the white flag before them. But as soon as some firmness is shown, terrorism can be smashed.”21. The passengers in the train complained about _____________.A. heavy crowds of peopleB. stuffy air.C. coughing noiseD. bad smell22. What happened to the stationmaster?A. He was sent to the hospital.B. He died soon after he touched the bag.C. He found himself burned.D. He was seriously injured.23. What happened in April, 1995 in New York?A. There was a real subway gas attack.B. There was an exercise for a subway gas attack.C. A Tokyo-style subway gas attack was stopped.D. Over 100 emergency personnel were killed.24. Yousef was accused of _____________.A. destroying the computer filesB. exploding World Trade Center by himselfC. making explosives for his followersD. planning to explode the airplanes25. The passage infers that dealing with terrorists the effective way is to ___________.A. strengthen the law against the crimes in certain areasB. make people aware of their dangerC. take rigid action against themD. create a reward program against them Passage TwoBy adopting a few simple techniques, parents who read to their children can substantially increase their children’s language development. It’s surprising, but true. The experi ment which was conducted in Princeton University has clearly proved how parents talk to their children makes a big difference in the children’s language development. If a parent encourages the child to actively respond to what the parent is reading, the ch ild’s language skills increase.A study was done with two- to three-year-old children and their parents. Half of the thirty children participated in the experimental study; the other half acted as the control group. In theexperimental group, the parents were given a two-hour training session in which they were taught to ask open-ended questions rather than yes/no questions. For example, the parent should ask, “What is the doggie doing?” rather than, “Is the doggie running away?” Experimental parents were a lso instructed in how to expand on their children’s answers, how to suggest alternative possibilities, and how to praise correct answers.At the beginning of the study, the children did not differ on measures of language development, but at the end of one month the children in the experimental group tested 5.5 month ahead of the control group on a test of verbal expression and vocabulary. Nine months later, the children in the experimental group still showed an advance of 6 months over the control group.26. Which of the following can be inferred from this passage?A. Parents who listen to their children can teach them more.B. Active children would be likely to read more.C. Children who talk a lot are more intelligent.D. Verbal ability can easily be increased.27. What was the difference between the control group and the experimental group?A. The training parents received.B. The age of the children.C. The books that were read.D. The number of children.28. According to the author, which of the following questions is the best type to ask after reading to a child about a zoo?A. Do you see the elephant?B. Is the elephant in the cage?C. What animals do you like?D. Shall we go to the zoo?29. In Line 11, the word “alternative” could best be replaced by which of the following?A. Better.B. Other.C. Easier.D. Clearer.30. What conclusion is best supported by this passage?A. Parents should be trained to read to their children.B. The more children read, the more intelligent they become.C. Children’s language skills increase when they are required to respond actively.D. Children who read actively act six months older.Passage ThreeThe use of the word "imitation" reminds me that I ought to make some more comments on the risk of people imitating what they see on the screen in the way of crime or violence. For example Iremember a woman who was head of an infants school telling me that she had happened to look out of her window when the children were in the playground and had seen them putting a small boy on a chair with a rope round his neck over the branch of a tree; fortunately she was in time to intervene before the child was hanged. I remember a film of no particular merit in which the hero who was imprisoned had escaped by killing his guard, the technique being shown in detail. This was the kind of scene which we should cut for these reasons.In films for young people we always tried to keep off the screen any details of criminal techniques, such as how to open a locked door with a piece of wire, or how to open a safe; if we were consulted before production I used to advise that the details should not be shown. When I gave talks in prisons about film censorship I invariably had full support for this; since fathers who were in prison for criminal offenses did not want their children to embark on crime.Every time I gave a talk in a prison someone used to mention the French film Rififi made by Jules Dassin in 1954. This remarkable film showed in great detail a robbery of a jeweler's shop, the robbery sequence lasting about half an hour and being backed only by natural sound --- one of the most brilliant film sequences of all time. I remember our discussions at the time. We took into account the fact that the robbery was accomplished only with the use of elaborate and obviously expensive equipment, and that only the most experienced and skilled criminals could possibly imitate it; we believed therefore that it was relatively safe. When talking in prisons some years later I learned that there had been several robberies in which the techniques had been copied, so perhaps we were wrong.31. In the first paragraph, the writer presented an example just to ____________________.A. stop children from fighting togetherB. intervene before the child was hangedC. show how dangerous scenes affected kidsD. indicate how terrible today's children were32. The passage indicates that the writer of this passage is in favor of that TV programs and films should be _________________.A. remade in detailsB. censored to some extentC. stopped for a whileD. be kept away from children33. Which of the following is Not true?A. The writer lectured to prisoners from time to time.B. Fathers in prison didn't want their children to follow them.C. A succession of a robbery in a film lasted about half an hour.D. Children of the criminals often commit crimes.34. The write r realized that people’s belief was wrong because ___________.A. a complicated robbery happened at the same time of the showB. criminals accomplished a difficult robbery with easy techniquesC. criminals succeeded in imitating a complicated robberyD. robbers learned the techniques from reports quickly35. The profession of the person who wrote this passage is probably a ________________.A. detective story writerB. policeman of a prisonC. government officerD. social activistPassage FourThough harvesting ice is not a new concept, now it has been considered in a new way. Long time ago some clever people wanted to use the ice for drinking water by shipping it from the areas where there was a lot of ice to the areas where there was a water shortage. Recently scientists in the United States have been studying this idea of harvesting ice as a possible solution to the problem of the declining fresh water supply, which is happening in many parts of the world. According to the statistics which is presented by Stanford Water Supply Institute, ninety percent of the earth’s fresh water is in the icecap of Antarctica. If only 10 percent of that ice could be drawn to civilization, it could provide water for 500 million people. But the problem, of course, is one of melting. How can a huge iceberg be dragged across the sea without melting?The answer could lie in enclosing the floating ice in a huge cylindrical container made of a high-strength synthetic fabric. If the iceberg were pushed into the fabric container, which is opened at both ends, then the ends could be sealed and the sea water pulled out. After that it could be drawn to civilization. The melting rate would be slowed down and the synthetic net would act as a holding tank for the water. Engineering this project, which might include a container up to one kilometer in length and 100 meters in diameter, would be a feat, but engineers say it is possible. After all, fishermen in North Australia sometimes use nets 8 kilometers long and 20 meters across. If this idea could be put into practice, the worldwide water shortage could be diminished.36. What is the main subject of this passage?A. The declining water supply on earth.B. Fresh water in the Antarctic.C. A solution to fresh water needs.D. The making of a synthetic water container.37. How does the author propose to transport the ice?A. By carrying it.B. By melting it.C. By piping it.D. By pulling it.38. According to the passage, the purpose of the fabric container is to ________.A. protect the iceB. diminish the speed of meltingC. cause the ice to floatD. pump out the sea water39. The word “feat” in Line 15 is most similar in meaning to which of the following?A. Expensive undertakingB. Difficult task.C. Disagreeable job.D. Critical step.40. The purpose of the last sentence but one is to _____________.A. reinforce the feasibility of the projectB. compare fishermen to engineersC. Contrast iceberg containers and fishing netsD. define the size of the containerSection BDirections:In this section, you are required to read several excerpts from newspapers and/or magazines. These excerpts are followed by questions or unfinished statements, each with four suggested answers A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.Excerpt 1:What does an economist think of that? A lot depends on whether the economist is a man or a woman. A new study shows a large gender gap on economic policy among the nation’s professional economists, a divide similar ---- and in some cases bigger ---- than the gender divide found in the general public. Differences extend to core professional belief ---- such as the effect of minimum wage laws ---- not just matters of political opinion.Excerpt 2:Opinion differences between men and women are well-documented in the general public. President Obama leads Mitt Romney by 10 percentage points among women. Romney leads Obama by 3 percentage points among men, according to the latest Gallup Poll.Excerpt 3:Liberal economist Dean Baker, co-founder of the Center for Economic Policy and Research, says male economists have been on the inside of the profession, confirming each other’s anto-regulation views. Women, as outsiders, “are more likely to think independently or at least see people outside of the economics profession as forming their peer group,” he says.Excerpt 4:A native of France, de Rugy supported government intervention early in her life but changed her mind after studying economics. “We want many of the same things as liberals ---- less poverty, more health care ---- but have radically different ideas on how to achieve it.”Excerpt 5:Female economists tend to favor a bigger role for government whicle male economists have greater faith in business and the marketplace. Is the U. S. economy excessively regulated? Sixty-five percent of female economists said “no”---- 24 percentage points higher than male economists. “It’s very puzzling,” says free-market economist Veronique de Rugy of the Mercatus Center at George Mason University in Fairfax, Va. “Not a day goes by that I don’t ask myself why there are so few women economists on the free-market side.”Excerpt 6:The gender balance in economics is changing. One-third of economics doctorates now go to women. The chair of the White House Council of Economic Advisers has been a woman three of 27 times since 1946 ---- one advising Obama and two advising Bill Clinton. The Federal Reserve Board of Governors has three women, bringing the total to eight of 90 members since 1914. Excerpt 7:The genders are most divorced from each other on the question of equality for women. Male economists overwhelmingly think the wage gap between men and women is largely the result of individuals’skills, experience and voluntary choices while female economists overwhemingly disagree. The biggest disagreement: 76% of women say faculty opportunities in economics favor men. Male economists point the opposite way: 80% say women are favored or the process is neutral.41. Gender differences between male and femal economists can be observed in the following aspects EXCEPT .A. core professional beliefsB. political preferences in presiential electionC. equality for womenD. the role of government in economy42. The majority of female economists tend to agree that .A. business and the marketplace should play a bigger role in economy.B. the U. S. economy is excessively regulated by the government.C. free market should be greatly encouraged to boost the U. S. economyD. the wage gap between men and women might be caused by the gender difference43. According to de Rugy, the difference between her and liberals is .A. their attitudes towards government interventionB. the goals they hope to achieveC. how to reducer poverty and improve health careD. the role of government in economy44. Which Excerpt discusses the difference of male and female economists in the relationship with their profession?A. Excerpt 2.B. Excerpt 3.C. Excerpt 6.D. Excerpt 7.Part IV Cloze (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions: There are a lit of 15 words and phrases with 15 blanks.

American children see 11 ads an hour. British children see more food advertisements 50 any other children in Europe ---- 10 ads per hour. In Sweden and Norway, 51 television ads directed towards children is banned, youngsters see 52 food ads.Nearly 95 per cent of the food 53 on British television were high in fat, sugar, salt, or mixtures of these ingredients. Advertising for 54 foods such as fruit and vegetables almost did not exist. “The results are especially worrying,” Lucy Harris says, “and the children struggle to distinguish ads from television programs.” She urged the government 55 rethink the regulations covering ads to children.Part V Text Completion (20 minutes, 20 points)Directions: In this part there are three short texts.

Americans traditionally have held independence and a closely related value, individualism, in high esteem. Parents try to instill(74) . American English expresses these value preferences: children should “cut the (umbilical) cord” and are encouraged not to be “tied to their mothers’ apron (围裙) strings.”(75) children learn to “look out for number one” and to “stand on their own two feet.”Part VI Translation (20 minutes, 10 points)Directions: Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your answer on the ANSWER SHEET.In accordance with the recent study conducted by a group of well-known scientists, differences in various areas of scientific research have several causes. Some of these causes are completely results of social needs and development. Others are reasonable consequences of particular advances in science being to some extent self-accelerating. It can be predicted, however,that from time to time questions will arise which will require specific scientific answers. It is therefore generally valuable to treat the scientific establishment as a resource or machine, which could provide these answers.Part VII Writing (30 minutes, 15 points)Directions: In this part, you are to write within 30 minutes a composition of no less than 150 words.

If we didn’t eat anything for a longer time, we would die. Therefore, food is vital to our life.Unfortunately, there is a serious shortage of food in many parts of the world. Due to the natural disasters and poor land, some countries cannot harvest enough grain for their people. We often hear form radio or TV that African countries suffer from starvation from time to time. Even in our country, food shortage is still a great threat to our nation.However, there are some ways to solve this problem. First, more attention should be drawn from the public and all the governments to food shortage. All the countries should put more money into the agriculture. Second, advanced technology should be accepted, and new kinds of grain plants should be cultivated and introduced to these countries which are short of food. Finally, rich countries should help the poor develop the agriculture and produce more food. In this way the food problem can be tackled.。

First, the United States is being restructured from an industrial to an information society. Second, modern societies are increasingly shifting from a national to a global economy. Futurists have applied a good many metaphors to these changes, including Daniel Bell’s “postindustrial society”, Alvin Toffier’s “the third wave”and John Naisbitt’s “megatrends”. Common to these metaphors is the notion that American society is shifting from the production of goods to the production of services and from society based on the coordination of people and machines to a society organized around knowledge. These changes, it is contended, will afford a myriad of choices. The world will increasingly be one of many flavors, not just vanilla(香草)or chocolate. Many observers of contemporary American life believe that we are witnessing a historical change and the first major impact of the shift from an energy economy to an information economy. For 300 years technology has been cast in a mechanical model, one based on the combustion processes that go on inside a star like the sun. The steam engine opened the mechanical age, and it reached its peak with the discovery of nuclear fission and nuclear fusion, which replicated the energy producing processes of a star. We now seem to be moving toward a biological model based on information and involving the intensive use of materials. Although biological processes need physical energy and materials, they tend to substitute information for both. Biological processes “miniaturize”size, energy, and materials by “exploding” information. The human brain is some ten times the size and weight of the brain of a lemur(狐猴), but it handles a billion times more information. As a result, high tech industries are information intensive rather than energy or material intensive. Sociologists have played and will continue to play an important role in assessing and interpreting these developments and other aspects of change.1.It can be inferred that underlying the two changes is the change of______.A.the instrument of productionB.the size of the societyC.the social structureD.the economic market正确答案:A解析:从文中第1段的内容推知,美国社会正在发生两方面的变化,一是它正在由一个工业社会向信息社会转变;二是区域经济模式正在向全球经济模式转变。
