2007年考研英语真题答案解析SectionⅠUse of English1.【答案】[B]【解析】词义辨析题,A.natives本地人;B.inhabitant居民;C.peoples民族;D.individuals个体。
本文首句指出:到了1830年,原来的西班牙和葡萄牙殖民地变成了独立国家。
本句解释了这些居住在摆脱殖民地地位而独立的国家的人们对于未来的态度。
这里的这里没有限定范围是“本地人”,也没有提及不同的民族,更没有强调个体差异,因此排除其他选项。
2.【答案】[D]【解析】词汇辨析题。
A.confusedly困惑地;B.cheerfully高兴的;C.worried担心的;D.hopefully充满期待地从首句已知这些国家的居民摆脱了西班牙和葡萄牙的殖民统治,虽然文中没有提到独立的过程,但是历史告诉我们,殖民地人们要求独立的愿望是一直存在的,是迫切的,由此可以判断,成立独立国家是殖民地人们的愿望,因此居民们对未来充满了期待,故选择hopefully合适。
3. 【答案】[A]【解析】逻辑关系题。
A.shared共有;B.forgot忘记;C.attained获得;D.rejected 拒绝。
本题所在的句子介绍了这些新独立国家的领导人们的治国理念。
首先提到了许多领导人们在治国理念中达成共识的部分,这由本句和下一句的内容及第二段首句中的less agreement得到印证,先指出领导人之间理念上的相同之处,再指出他们之间存在的分歧,shared the ideas符合上下文逻辑关系,故为答案。
4.【答案】[C]【解析】语义辨析题。
A.related相关的;B.close接近的;C.open开着的;D.devoted 投入的。
本句提到的新国家领导人共同的治国理念包括议会制政府等。
由这里的representative government,freedom of commerce and trade可以看出,这些都是先进的民主的治国方略,故此处的careers应为“向人才开放的职业”,这样才能让人们人尽其才,发挥自己的作用。

第十四套题Part ADirections:Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (40 points)Text 1 07.8This is the week each year when Americans revel in their nationalism. But the events of the past few weeks suggest that the nationalist impulse may be more than seasonal this time, and certainly not limited to the United States. Certainly in the economic sense, the rush toward globalization has slowed, and “economic patriotism”is on the rise.The utter collapse last weekend of a global trade conference is the latest evidence that, among developed and developing countries alike, there is simply little appetite for another round of globalization. The best face to put on it is that there’s still a lot of adjustment going on just to digest the last round, and it is only natural that people want and need more time before diving in for another helping.In places where globalization has generated the greatest gains—the United States, China and Korea come to mind—there is a need to come up with mechanisms to spread the benefits more broadly and fairly while working off some of the excesses that show up in things such as asset bubbles and unsustainable trade imbalances. And in places where globalization has generated surprisingly little progress—Africa, Latin America and Russia are examples—it is clear that some countries have yet to develop the economic, political and social institutions required to benefit from a globalized market economy.Here in the United States, the political shouting match over immigration has become this year’s proxy for the ongoing debate over globalization. On policy grounds, President Bush has it exactly right: Although the extent of illegal immigration has become unacceptable and should be curbed, immigration remains a big plus for the U.S. economy. But the fact that a sitting president and former Texas governor can’t get a majority of his own party in Congress to sign on to his program speaks to the widespread desire among Americans now to reduce our entanglement with the rest of the world.With the near-certain collapse of the Doha round, you can be sure that, in the coming days, business executives, think-tank economists and former chairmen of the Federal Reserve will come forward with all sorts of dire warnings about the dangers of protectionism and isolationism. They should all save their breath. You can’t go around the world preaching about democracy and free markets if you’re not willing to accept the results of elections and acknowledge the shifting sentiments in the marketplace of ideas. Up to now, globalization has been the project of business and economic elites who have largely foisted it on a wary or unsuspecting public. Now, from remote villages of China to a gathering spot for day laborers in Herndon, globalization has entered its more democratic phase. And it’s likely to be a messy phase, at that.[473 words]1. The word “face” (Line 3, Paragraph 2) in the context is closest to in meaning.[A]disguise[B]result[C]expression[D]feature2. The countries that have benefited from active trade are characterized with .[A] a genuinely deregulated market economy[B]the best and most experienced economists in the world[C]uneven distribution of globalization benefits[D]sound economic, political and social institutions3. The US debate on immigration is cited as evidence of .[A]the transition from a market economy to a state-run economy[B]the distrust of open trade and global interaction[C]the protest against the pro-market government[D]the strong party control over economic affairs4. According to the author, economic policymakers should .[A]warn of the dangers of nationalistic economic policies[B]come to terms with a new phase of globalization[C]encourage export and foreign investment[D]dedicate themselves to the creation of democratic states5. The best title for the text may be .[A]Globalization: Threat or Opportunity?[B]Who Are Globalization’s Big Winners[C]Globalization Doomed from the Beginning[D]World Puts the Brakes on the Rush to GlobalizationText 2 07.8Although celebrated for his art criticism and his interviews with Francis Bacon and other artists, the late David Sylvester began his writing career as a cricket correspondent for the Observer. It was, he said, “the most testing literary exercise I have undergone”. But it proved invaluable, for the qualities that make a good cricket commentator—a sense of timing and acute observation, a passion for elegant ritual and the psychology mixed with physicality of a sport that is baffling to outsiders—all contributed to making Sylvester one of the greatest art critics of his time. This posthumous collection of his writings and interviews provides a valuable opportunity to re-examine his talent for observing the long game of art.The book displays in full Sylvester’s catholic interests. There is an interview with Diaghilev’s friend, the Russian-born Leonide Massine, and also a conversation with Sir Harrison Birtwistle, a British composer whose son Adam was one of many artists to paint Sylvester’s portrait. It includes Sylvester’s catalogue essay, as well as an interview, for an exhibition he organized of the film designs of his school friend Ken Adam, creator of Dr Strangelove’s war room and of James Bond sets. There are encounters with visual artists both old (William Coldstream, Henry Moore) and new (Rachel Whiteread, Douglas Gordon).The collection is by no means comprehensive—there are none of the famous Bacon interviews here—and would have benefited from more entries, illustrations and a stronger introduction to the man and his work. But it makes up for this with myriad insights into the creative life. In one interview, for example, Howard Hodgkin says, “for an artist time c an always be regained, wonders never cease because by any act of imagination, you can always go back.”Perhaps the most touching interview is his last, a few months before his death. In it, he asks Mike Brearley, a retired cricketer, now a psychoanalyst and art enthusiast, about the similarities between greatness in sport and in art. Mr Brearley replies that both share a sense of the uncompromising, of “not turning one’s face away”.In a way, this is also an attribute of a great critic. Sylvester was steadfast in his gaze. The descendant of a teacher of Jewish law, he was unreligious, reserving his awe for art and his intenseanger for anyone who transgressed it. He spoke only when he had something to say and was sacked as a radio critic for what became kn own as the “Sylvester pause”, his long silences which punctuated conversations.Yet his sleep-inducing voice could coax the most revealing admissions from artists—not about their personal lives, a topic he considered frivolous—but about the mystery of how they made their work, of creation itself. He had a Socratic gift for dialogue, eliciting from artists ideas that had never occurred to them before; unlike Socrates, however, he didn’t prove his interlocutor wrong at the end. It is clear from these interviews that both parties made discoveries. So will anyone who reads this intelligent and elegant book.[512 words]6. It can be inferred from the text that David Sylvester .[A]was widely known as a sports commentator[B]benefited from his early work experience [C]had a passion for both sports and arts[D]started his career in art criticism at late age 7. Which of the following best defines the word “catholic” (Line 1, Paragraph 2)?[A]Religious [B]Extensive [C]Broad-minded [D]Unique8. According to the author, the collection of Sylvester’s works .[A]records his encounters with leading artists such as Francis Bacon[B]shows his talent at observing and commentating matches[C]betrays his masterful understanding of modern artists[D]contains his last interview with a retired sportsman9. What leads to Sylvester’s success as an art critic includes .[A]his preference for using exact words and elegant style in writing[B]his habit of having long silences during the conversations[C]his ability to get great artists to talk about their personal lives[D]his principle of refusing to make concessions10. This passage appears to be .[A] a book review [B]an introduction to art[C] a personal profile [D]an art critic’s biographyText 3 07.8People have speculated about their own creativity for centuries. Because creative thought just seems to “arrive”, the credit has been laid at the feet of gods and spirits or, recently, the id or the subconscious mind. Whatever it is, it is thinking at the edge. The only bit of the creative process we actually know about is the moment of insight, yet creative ideas and projects may incubate beyond our awareness for months or even years. Not surprising, then, that creativity has long eluded scientific study.In the early 1970s, it was still seen as a type of intelligence. But when more subtle tests of IQ and creative skills were developed in the 1970s, it became clear that the link was not so simple. Creative people are intelligent, in terms of IQ tests at least, but only averagely or just above. In general beyond a certain level IQ does not help boost creativity; it is necessary, but not sufficient to make someone creative.Because of the difficulty of studying the actual process, most early attempts to study creativity concentrated on personality. According to creativity specialist Mark Runco of California State University, Fullerton, the “creative personality” tends to place a high value on aesthetic qualitiesand to have broad interests, providing lots of resources to draw on and knowledge to recombine into novel solutions. “Creatives” have an attraction to complexity and an ability to handle conflict. They are also usually highly self-motivated, perhaps even a little obsessive. Less creative people, on the other hand, tend to become irritated if they cannot immediately fit all the pieces together. They are less tolerant of confusion.But what of the creative act itself? Back in 1978, a psychologist used a network of scalp electrodes to record an electroencephalogram, a record of the pattern of brain waves, as people made up stories. Creativity, he showed, has two stages: inspiration and elaboration, each characterised by very different states of mind. While people were dreaming up their stories, he found their brains were surprisingly quiet. The dominant activity was alpha waves, indicating a very low level of cortical arousal: a relaxed state, as though the conscious mind was quiet while the brain was making connections behind the scenes. It’s the same sort of brain activity as in some stages of sleep, dreaming or rest, which could explain why sleep and relaxation can help people be creative.However, when these quiet-minded people were asked to work on their stories, the alpha wave activity dropped off and the brain became busier, revealing increased cortical arousal, more activities and more organised thinking. Strikingly, it was the people who showed the biggest difference in brain activity between the inspiration and development stages who produced the most creative storylines. “It’s as if the less creative person can’t shift gear,”says Guy Claxton, a psychologist at the University of Bristol, UK. “Creativity requires different kinds of thinking. Very creative people move between these states intuitively.”Creativity, it seems, is about mental flexibility: perhaps not a two-step process, but a toggling between two states.[518 words]11. Creativity has not been the focus of the scientific study because .[A]human beings are not interested in themselves[B]it is only related to momentary flashes of thought[C]people have wrong or little understanding of it[D]it is difficult to study the process of thinking12. We can infer that less creative people tend to .[A]be less intelligent than creative people[B]get impatient when dealing with people [C]be comfortable with simpler issues[D]be interested in only few subjects13. The scientific studies seem to suggest that the key to triggering a creative event might be . [A] a quick burst of inspiration[B] a sudden rise in alpha waves[C] a change of mind state[D] a combination of relaxation and exercises14. It can be learned from the text that a direct link has been made between creativity and.[A]subconsiousness[B]mental illness[C]personality[D]thinking skills15. According to the passage, which of the following is true?[A]Intelligence is in direct proportion to creativity.[B]Creativity is based on knowledge accumulation.[C]Non-creative people are bad at shift between moods.[D]Communication between the sides of the brain is important to creative people.Text 4 06.8For many years, any discussion of reparations to compensate the descendants of African slaves for246 years of bondage and another century of legalized discrimination was dismissed. Many whites and blacks alike scoffed at the idea, reasoning that slavery is part of the past that would only unleash new demons if it were resurrected.Opponents contend that the fledgling reparations movement overlooks many important facts. First, they assert, reparations usually are paid to direct victims, as was the case when the US government apologized and paid compensation to Japanese-Americans interned during World War Ⅱ. Similarly, Holocaust (大屠杀) survivors have received payments from the Germans. In addition, not all blacks were slaves, and an estimated 3 000 were slave owners.Also, many immigrants not only came to the United States after slavery ended, but they also faced discrimination. Should they pay reparations, too? Or should they receive them?And regardless of how much slave labor contributed to the United States’wealth, opponents contend, blacks benefit from that wealth today. As a group, Afro-Americans are the best-educated, wealthiest blacks on the planet.But that attitude is slowly changing. At least 10 cities, including Chicago, Detroit and Washington, have passed resolutions in the past two years urging federal hearings into the impact of slavery. Mainstream civil rights groups such as National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, the National Urban League and the Southern Christian Leadership Conference regularly raise the issue.The surging interest in reparations parallels a heightened sensitivity to the horrors of slavery, in which as many as 6 million Africans perished in the journey to the Americas alone. There also is growing attention being paid to the huge economic bounty that slavery created for private companies and the country as a whole.Earliest this year, Aetna Inc. apologized for selling insurance policies that compensated slave owners for financial losses when their slaves died. Last summer, the Hartford Courant in Connecticut printed a front-page apology for the profits it made from running ads for the sale of slaves and the capture of runaways. Next month, a new California law will require insurance companies to disclose any slave insurance policies they may have issued. The state also is requiring University of California officials to assemble a team of scholars to research the history of slavery and report how current California businesses benefited.Proponents of reparations argue that, even for nearly a century after emancipation in 1865, blacks legally were still excluded from the opportunities that became the cornerstones for the white middle-class.[427 words]16.The reasons put forward by opponents of reparations include all the following EXCEPT that. [A]compensations usually go to direct victims[B]blacks who came after slavery ended should not receive compensations[C]blacks now are enjoying the wealth they created under slavery[D]some blacks were slave owners instead of slaves17.“Immigrants” in paragraph 3 refers to.[A]Afro-Americans[B]non-white immigrants[C]Japanese-Americans[D]holocaust survivors18.That the reparations movement is winning support in America is shown in the fact that.[A]federal hearings were held to investigate the impact of slavery[B]even mainstream civil rights groups were persuaded[C]growing attention is being paid to the wealth of the blacks[D]there was more public awareness of the frightening experience of slavery19.The two private companies that made public apology had.[A]compensated slave owners for financial losses[B]sold slaves and captured runaways[C]operated insurance and advertisement businesses[D]depended on slavery for their existence20.Which of the following is true according the passage?[A]US government killed Japanese-Americans during World War Ⅱ.[B]A new Californian law disclosed slave-insurance policies.[C]National Urban League is one of the civil right groups.[D]Blacks faced no discrimination after liberation in 1865.Part B 07.8Directions:In the following text, some paragraphs have been removed. For Questions 21-25, choose the most suitable one from the list A-F to fit into each of the numbered blank. There are one extra choice, which does not fit in any of the gaps. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. (10 points) The skin is considered the largest organ of the body. It is one of the most noticeable places in which aging changes occur. Wrinkles, sagging skin, and dry skin are all indicators of the aging process. To many individuals, these can be unpleasant changes.21.The skin tends to get thinner with age. This causes older people to have pale, translucent skin. The number of pigment, or color-containing, cells decreases. The color-containing cells that are left tend to get bigger and group together. This is the cause of age spots that commonly appear on elderly skin. These are also called liver spots. These pigmented areas tend to be more common on skin that has been exposed to the sun.22.The skin also loses its strength and elasticity, or ability to stretch. This makes the skin less able to smooth out, which may be part of the reason why wrinkles and sagging skin affect the elderly.23.The layer of fat under the skin also becomes thinner with age. This is part of the reason for the thin, lean appearance of older people. It also contributes to loosening and wrinkling of the skin. This loss of fat also means a person has less natural insulation. An older person is at greater risk for a low body temperature, or hypothermia, when exposed to cold.24.Skin disorders are also more likely with age. More than 90% of the geriatric population will have some type of skin condition. Environmental factors and inherited factors are a frequent cause of skin changes. The sun is a major culprit in causing skin damage, though many other diseases can also cause skin changes.25.Exposure to sunlight has been proven to increase the risk of skin cancer, which is most commonly seen in the elderly.[311 words][A]The combined effects of skin aging can cause increased bruising and skin tears, even from minor injuries. Older people are also prone to getting damage to skin that receives a high amount of pressure for long periods of time. Wounds in older people may heal 4 to 5 times more slowly than in younger people.[B]Another change with age is that a person’s skin will bruise more easily. This occurs because the blood vessels in the skin become fragile and bleed easily. This skin change begins earlier in women than in men.[C]The number of sweat glands in the skin is decreased with age. This causes the elderly to sweat less. This lack of sweating makes the ability to regulate body temperature more difficult in hot weather. Because of this, elderly people are more likely to develop heat emergencies, such as heat exhaustion and heat stroke. At the same time, there is less blood flow to the skin. This makes the skin of the elderly cooler to the touch.The decreased number of sweat glands and oil glands in the skin also causes drier, scalier skin that may be itchy as well.[D]Skin disorders can be caused by many diseases including diabetes, liver disease, heart disease and blood vessel diseases such as arteriosclerosis. Stress, reactions to medications, obesity and nutritional deficiencies can be other causes.[E]The skin is the body’s protective coating. It protects against the environment and helps to regulate body temperature. It also helps maintain the body’s fluid and salt balance. Nerve fibers in the skin provide information about a person’s surroundings. These nerves detect touch, pain, pressure, and temperature.[F]Sun damage can be easily seen in a person by comparing sun-exposed skin with areas that do not get sunlight. Unexposed skin tends to be very elastic and smooth. Skin that has had a lot of exposure to the sun is dry, wrinkled, and sagging. A leathery, weather-beaten appearance of the skin is often seen in people who have worked outside or spent a lot of time outdoors during their lives.Part C 07.8Directions:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written clearly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(10 points)It would have been impossible, completely and entirely, for any woman to have written the plays of Shakespeare in the age of Shakespeare. (26)Let me imagine, since facts are so hard to come by, what would have happened had Shakespeare had a wonderfully gifted sister, called Judith, let us say. Shakespeare himself went to the grammar school, where he may have learnt Latin—Ovid, Virgil and Horace—and the elements of grammar and logic. (27)He was, it is well known, a wild boy who hunted rabbits illegally, perhaps shot a deer, and had, rather sooner than he should have done, to marry a woman in the neighborhood, who bore him a child rather quicker than was right. That episode sent him to seek his fortune in London.(28) He began by holding horses at the stage door, but very soon he got work in the theatre, became a successful actor, and lived at the hub of the universe, meeting everybody, knowing everybody, practicing his art on the boards, exercising his wits in the streets, and even getting access to the palace of the queen.Meanwhile his extraordinarily gifted sister, let us suppose, remained at home. She was as adventurous, as imaginative as he was. She had no chance of learning grammar and logic, let alone of reading Horace and Virgil. She picked up a book now and then, one of her brother’sperhaps, and read a few pages. But then her parents came in and told her to mend the stockings and not moon about with books and papers. (29)They would have spoken sharply but kindly, for they were substantial people who knew the conditions of life for a woman and loved their daughter—indeed, more likely than not she was the apple of her father’s eye. Soon, however, before she was out of her teens, she was to be married to the son of a neighboring wool dealer. She cried out that marriage was hateful to her, and for that she was severely beaten by her father. (30)The force of her own gift alone drove her to disobey his father; she made up a small parcel of her belongings, let herself down by a rope one summer’s night and took the road to London. She had the quickest fancy, a gift like her brother’s, for the tune of words. Like him, she had a taste for the theatre. She stood at the stage door; she wanted to act. The manager—a fat, loose-lipped man—laughed loudly. She could get no training in her craft. Could she even seek her dinner in a tavern or roam the streets at midnight? Yet her genius was for fiction and lusted to feed abundantly upon the lives of men and women and the study of their ways. At last—for she was very young, oddly like Shakespeare in her face—an actor took pity on her. She found herself with child by that man and so—who shall measure the heat and violence of the poet’s heart in a woman’s body—killed herself one winter’s night and lies buried at some cross-roads.[530 words]答案1.A2.C3.B4.B5.D6.B7.B8.D9.D10.A11.C12.C13.C14.C15.B16.B17.B18.D19.C20.C21.E22.C23.B24.A25.F26.由于当时情况很难得知,因此我不妨来设想一下:如果莎士比亚有一位天资颖慧的妹妹,比方说叫朱迪丝,事情会是怎样。
