南京农业大学2004年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试试题试题编号:433 试题名称:英汉互译注意:答题一律答在答题纸上,答在草稿纸或试卷上一律无效I. Translate the following into English (每小题15分,共75)1.通信卫星系统在过去的几十年中取得了很大的成功,已引起人们对其未来的广泛关注。
一些国家正在采用卫星来发展国内的通信,以取代传统的陆地电话线。
但是,卫星的研制,发射和运转的成本很高,超出了一些国家的经济承受能力。
尽管如此,通信卫星系统得到越来越多的人的重视和支持。
这种技术在未来会更加普及。
2.我们应该大力恢复和保护森林和土地,减缓人口增长,减轻发展中国家的债务,提高能源效率,开发可再生资源,如水力、太阳能等。
恢复热带森林不仅将保护数以万计的鲜为人知的生物物种,而且有助于吸收大气中的二氧化碳——延缓“温室效应”引起的地球变暖过程。
3.中美两国在社会制度和对外政策上有着本质的区别。
但是,双方同意,各国不论社会制度如何,都应该根据尊重各国主权和领土完整、不侵犯别国、不干涉别国内政、平等互利、和平共处的原则来处理国与国之间的关系。
国际争端应在此基础上予以解决,而不诉诸武力和武力威胁。
4.创造一个品牌需要时间,金钱和市场知识。
一些中国品牌以有竞争力的价位为后盾,已经挤进了国际市场,但是同时也采用了其他战略。
例如“海尔”——中国最负盛名的家用电器生产商,已经明显地从价格战略上转变过来,以产品质量、高效的销售和售后服务来进行竞争。
5.中国民俗文化村是国内第一个荟萃各民族的民间、民俗风情和民居建筑于一园的大型文化游览区。
它坐落在风光秀丽的深圳湾畔,占地18万平方米。
您可以在一日之内,或乘车,或步行,或乘船在村寨里尽情游历。
除了可以了解各民族的建筑风格之外,还可以欣赏和参与各民族的歌舞表演、民族工艺品生产和民族风味食品制作的表演。

南京农业大学2004 年攻读硕士学位研究生入学考试试题试题编号: 327 试题名称:基础英语注意:答题一律答在答题纸上,答在草稿纸或试卷上一律无效Part I Reading Comprehension (60 points) Passage OneDirections:1. Write an outline of the main points covered in the following reading material. (10 points)2. What institutional constraints have been mentioned in this text? As a language learner, what do you think of the role of the individual learner, especially in terms of learner autonomy and learner possibility? (10 points)Over the last quarter of the twentieth century, the (English) language teaching profession has undergone many changes. One interesting example of this is the role of materials, and in particular, in the nature of course book provision. The market for‘main courses’ has grown enormously, and the top five course book series, in Britain alone, generate very large sales indeed. Responding to these greater rewards for producing successful courses, the series themselves have changed dramatically. Book now contain far more material, with ‘multi’ syllabuses (Swan and Walter 1984-87) as well as extensive accompanying material. In addition, the professionalism of the publishing process means that those series which are published have survived a rigorous monitoring and piloting schedule which is likely to have caused significant rejection of unsatisfactory material and revision of almost everything which remains. All this, of course, represents a significant advance. It is difficult not to conclude that the materials which are now available are not simply more extensive but are also of better quality than their predecessors. In some ways these developments have rendered out-of-date an interesting exchange on the value of language teaching materials. Allwright (1981) argued that commercial materials are a juggernaut which are stifling for the individual and the mediating contributions that can be made by the teacher. In contrast, O’Neill (1982) argued that it is better to use professional materials than those produced under difficult circumstances by amateurs. The debate was nicely balanced, with each party making unanswered points, and the conclusion being a difficult one to draw. So it is all the more striking that since then the O’Neill position has seemed to prevail by default. Since the time of the debate we have seen an astonishing growth in accepted importance of a relatively small number of well produced course book series, with the result that the position that Allwright argued so cogently has been marginalized.This, of course, leads us to consider the price that we have had to pay for such progress. Clearly, a central factor underlying publisher behavior is to maximize。

As often as not, emplyers do not choose the best candidate, they choose the candidate who makes a good first impression on them. Some employers, of course, reply to this argument by saying that they have become so experienced in interviewing staff that they are able to make a sound assessment of each candidate’s likely perfor mance.? The main argument in favour of the interview — and it is, perhaps, a good argument —is that an employer is concerned not only with a candidate’s ability, but with the suitability of his or her personality for the particular work situation. Many employers, for example, will overlook occasional inefficiencies from their secretary provided she has a pleasant personality.?It is perhas true to say, therefore, that the real purpose of an interview is not to assess the assssable aspects of each candidate but to make a guess at the more intangible things, such as personality, character andsocial ability. Unfortunately, both for the employers and applicants for jobs, there are many people of great ability who simply do not interview well. There are also, of course, people who interview extremely well, but are later found to be very unsatisfactory employees.? Candidates who interview well tend to be quietly confident, but never boastful; direct and straightforward in their questions and answers; cheerful and friendly, but never over-familiar; and sincerely enthusiastic and optimistic. Candidates who interview badly tend to be at either end of the spectrum of human behaviour. They are either very shy or over-confident. They show either a lack of enthusiasm or an excess of it. They either talk too little or never stop talking. They are either over-polite or rudely abrupt.?66.We can infer from the passage that an employer might tolerate his secretary’s occasional mistakes, if the latter is ____?A. direct.B. cheerful.C. shy.D. capable.?67.What is the author’s attitude towards the interview as a selection procedure?A. Unclear.B. Negative.C. Objective.D. Indifferent.68.According to the passage, people argue over the interview as a selection procedure mainly because they have ____.?A. different selection procedures?B. different puposes in the interview?C. different standards for competence?D. different experiences in interviews?69.The purpose of the last paragraph is to indicate ____.?A. a link between success in interview and personality?B. connections between work abilities and personality?C. differences in interview experience?D. differences in personal behaviourTEXT BEvery year thousands of people are arrested and taken to court for shop-lifting. In Britain alone, about HK$3,000,000’s worth of goods are stolen from shops every week. This amounts to something like HK$150 million a year, and represents about 4 per cent of the shops’ total stock. As a result of this “shrinkage” as the sho ps call it, the honest public has to pay higher prices.?Shop-lifters can be divided into three main categories: the professionals, the deliberate amateur, and the people who just can’t help themselves. The professionals do not pose much of a problem for the store detectives, who, assisted by closed circuit television, two-way mirrors and variousother technological devices, can usually cope with them. The professionals tend to go for high value goods in parts of the shops where security measures are tightest. And, in any case, they account for only a small percentage of the total losses due to shop-lifting.?The same applies to the deliberate amateur who is, so to speak, a professional in training. Most of them get caught sooner or later, and they are dealt with severely by the courts.?The real problem is the person who gives way to a sudden temptation and is in all other respects an honest and law-abiding citizen. Contrary to what one would expect, this kind of shop-lifter is rarely poor. He does not steal because he needs the goods and cannot afford to pay for them. He steals because he simply cannot stop himself. And there are countless others who, because of age, sickness or plain absent-mindedness, simply forget to pay for what they take from the shops. When caught, all are liable to prosecution, and the decision whether to send for the police or not is in the hands of the store manager.?In order to prevent the quite incredible growth in ship-lifting offences, some stores, in fact, are doing their best to separate the thieves from the confused by prohibiting customers from taking bags into the store. However, what is most worrying about the whole problem is, perhaps, that it is yet another instance of the innocent majority being penalized and inconvenienced because of the actions of a small minority. It is the aircraft hijack situation in another form. Because of the possibility of one passenger in a million boarding an aircraft with a weapon, the other 999,999 passengers must subject themselves to searches and delays. Unless the situation in the shops improves, in ten years’ time we may all have to subject ourselves to a body-search every time we go into a store to buy a tin of beans!?70.Why does the honest public have to pay higher prices when they go to the shops?A. There is a “shrinkage” in market values.?B. Many goods are not available.?C. Goods in many shops lack variety.?D. There are many cases of shop-lifting.?71.The third group of people steal things because they ____?A. are mentally ill.B. are quite absent-minded.?C.can not resist the temptation.D. can not afford to pay for goods.?72.According to the passage, law-abiding citizens ____.?A. can possibly steal things because of their poverty?B. can possibly take away goods without paying?C. have never stolen goods from the supermarkets?D. are difficult to be caught when they steal things?73.Which of the following statements is NOT true about the main types of shop-lifting??A. A big percentage of the total losses are caused by the professionals.?B. The deliberate amateurs will be punished severely if they get caught.?C. People would expect that those who can’t help themselves are poor.?D. The professionals don’t cause a lot of trouble to the store detectives.?74.The aircraft hijack situation is used in order to show that ____.?A. “the professionals do not pose much of a problem for the stores”?B. some people “somply forget to pay for what they take from the shops”?C. “the honest public has to pay higher prices”?D. the third type of shop-lifters are dangerous peopleTEXT CMy bones have been aching again, as they often do in humid weather. They ache like history: things long done with, that still remain as pain. When the ache is bad enough it keeps me from sleeping. Every night I yearn for sleep, I strive for it; yet it flutters on ahead of me like a curtain. There are sleeping pills, of course, but the doctor has warned me against them.?Last night, after what seemed hours of damp turmoil, I got up and crept slipperless down the staris, feeling my way in the faint street light that came through the window. Once safely arrived at the bottom, I walked into the kitchen and looked around in the refrigerator. There was nothing much I wanted to eat: the remains of a bunch of celery, a blue-tinged heel of bread, a lemon going soft. I’ve fallen into the habits of the solitary; my meals are snatched and random. Furtive snacks, furtive treats and picnics. I made do with some peanut butter, scooped directly from the jar with a forefinger: why dirty a spoon??Standing there with the jar in one hand and my finger in my mouth, I had the feeling that someone was about to walk into the room — some other woman, the unseen, valid owner — and ask me what in hell I was doing in her kitchen. I’ve had i t before, the sense that even in the course of my most legitimate and daily actions —peeling a banana, brushing my teeth — I am trespassing.?At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s. I wandered through the front room, the dining room, the parlour, hand on the wall for balance. My various possessions were floating in their own pools of shadow, denying my ownership of them. I looked them over with a burglar’s eye, deciding what might be worth the risk of stealing, what on the otherhand I would leave behind. Robbers would take the obvious things — the silver teapot that was my grandmother’s, perhaps the hand-painted china. The television set. Nothing I really want.75.The author could not fall asleep because ____.?A. it was too damp in the bedroom?B. she had run out of sleeping pills?C. she was in very poor health?D. she felt very hungry?76.The author did not like the food in the refrigerator because it was NOT ____.A. freshB. sufficient?C. nutritiousD. delicious?77.By “At night the house was more than ever like a stranger’s”(Line 1, Para. 4), the author probably means that ____.?A. the house was too dark at night?B. ther were unfamiliar rooms in the house?C. she felt much more lonely at night?D. the furniture there didn’t belong to her?TEXT DThe chief problem in coping with foreign motorists is not so much remembering that they are different from yourself, but that they are enormously variable. Cross a frontier without adjusting and you can be in deep trouble.?One of the greatest gulfs separating the driving nations is the Atlantic Ocean. More precisely, it is the mental distance between the European and the American motorist, particularly the South American motorist. Compare, for example, an English driver at a set of traffic lights with a Brazilian.?Very rarely will an Englishman try to anticipate the green light by moving off prematurely. You will find the occasional sharpie who watches for the amber to come up on the adjacent set of lights. However, he will not go until he receives the lawful signal. Brazilians view the thing quite differently. If, in fact, they see traffic lights at all, they regard them as a kind of roadside decoration.?The natives of North America are much more disciplined. They demonstrate this in their addiction to driving in one lane and sticking to it —even if it means settling behind some great truck for many miles.?To prevent other drivers from falling into reckless ways, American motorists try always to stay close behind the vehicle in front which canmake it impossible, when all the vehicles are moving at about 55 mph, to make a real lane change. European visitors are constantly falling into this trap. They return to the Old World still flapping their arms in frustration because while driving in the State in their car they kept failing to get off the highway when they wanted to and were swept along to the next city.?However, one nation above all others lives scrupulously by its traffic regulations —the Swiss. In Switzerland, if you were simply to anticipate a traffic light, the chances are that the motorist behind you would take your number and report you to the police. What is more, the police would visit you; and you would be convicted.? The Swiss take their rules of the road so seriously that a diver can be ordered to appear in court and charged for speeding on hearsay alone, and very likely found guilty. There are slight regional variations among the French, German and Italian speaking areas, but it is generally safe to assume that any car bearing a CH sticker will be driven with a high degree of discipline.?78.The fact that the Brazilians regard traffic lights as a kind of roadside decoration suggests that ____.?A. traffic lights are part of street sceneryB. they simply ignore traffic lights?C. they want to put them at roadsidesD. there are very few traffic lights?79. The second and third paragraphs focus on the difference between ____.?A. the Atlantic Ocean and other oceansB. English drivers and American drivers?C. European drivers and American driversD. European drivers and South American drivers?80.The phrase “anticipate the green light”(Line 1, Para. 3) is closest in meaning to ____.A. wait for the green light to be onB. forbid others to move before the green light?C. move off before the green light is onD. follow others when the green light is onSECTION B SKIMMING AND SCANNING [5 MIN.]In this section there are seven passages with a total of ten multiple-choice questions.
