2012年1月全国自考《英语写作》真题全国2012年1月高等教育自学考试英语写作试题课程代码:00603I. Supply the missing paragraph (20 points)The following passage is incomplete with one paragraph missing. Study the following passage carefully and write a paragraph of about 100 words. Make sure that the tone and vocabulary you use are in unity with the passage provided. Dating in CyberspaceThe number of single people in the United States has been increasing for several years. Many of them like being single and do not want to find a marriage partner. Some, however, want to find someone, but they’re too busy to spend the time. They don't want to invest time in a relationship, find out that they aren't compatible, and have to start all over again. There is a solution to this problem: cyber-dating. Anyone who is seriously looking for a partner should try cyber-dating.For one thing, cyber-dating is extremely convenient. There are many reputable websites that make it easy to post your profile for others to see. Once you haveposted your profile, you read about the thousands of others who have done the same. You can take as much or as little time as you like looking through the database. Also, these sites are available twenty-four hours a day, so you can search when you have the time.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, the anxiety of dating is greatly lessened with cyber-dating. Traditionally, men take the lead in dating. They are the ones who have to ask a woman out on a date. They have to risk rejection. It's no better for women, however. Many women still wait for a man to ask them out first. Then, if they don't want to go out with him, they have to let the man down gently. While it's true that sometimes with cyber-dating men still get rejected and women still reject, you experience this in the privacy of your own home. Moreover, you never have to see the person again because you have never met! It's the perfect solution.In short, if you are looking for someone to date and even marry, you should go online and post your profile on a dating website. It's convenient, safe, and worry-free.II. Write an outline (20 points)Read the following passage carefully and compose a “topic outline” for it. The Smell of HomeLast week a friend told me that she was reading a French novel in her university literature class. It was called Remembrance of Things Past and was written by Marcel Proust. She told me that in that book, a man bites into a little cookie called a Madeleine and that the taste of the cookie makes him think about the past. For me, it is the sense of smell rather than the sense of taste that brings back happy memories.The aroma of pipe tobacco always makes me smile. I know most people feel very differently about the smell of tobacco, but I like it for a simple reason: My grandfather used to smoke a pipe, and I adored my grandfather. After an especially good dinner, he used to settle into his favorite chair and go through a long ritual of filling his pipe with something that looked like dead leaves and smelled of apples. Then he would light the pipe, lean back, and smile. The grandchildren gathered around him while he smoked and told us stories about when he was young and travelled the world on sailing ships. I felt safe and loved sitting near my grandfather while he smoked his pipe.Another wonderful smell is the scent of sweet rolls just coming out of the oven. When I was a child, my mother used to bake sweet rolls every Saturday. The children helped mix the dough with sugar and cinnamon and shape it into little balls. Then we eagerly watched the timer as it counted down the minutes until the rolls were done. After my mother took out the hot rolls and placed them on the counter, the children mixed water and sugar into a paste. When the rolls were cool, we spread the paste over the rolls. What a wonderful aroma! My mother let us eatone right away. We were very happy and secure there in the family kitchen with the smell of sweet, hot rolls.My favorite aunt always wore a perfume that smelled like roses. My aunt was a tall and large woman who had lots of blond hair and wore flowered dresses. Her perfume was just like her: soft, friendly, warm, and cheerful. She had a lovely singing voice, and when I spent the night at my cousins' house, she would sit in the bedroom as we fell asleep singing old lullabies in her rich, low voice. I fell asleep under the blankets to the smell of her rose perfume and her soft songs, feeling cared for and content.These are just three examples of smells that I associate with happiness and safety. I don't know anyone who smokes a pipe these days, so I rarely smell pipe tobacco. However, I have my mother's recipe for sweet rolls, and I sometimes bake them for my friends. I like to wear more than one kind of perfume, but whenever I wear my rose perfume, I think of my aunt. Smells bring back wonderful memories.III. Compose an essay (60 points)Studying the English language in an English-speaking country is the best but not the only way. Do you agree or disagree with this statement?Write an essay of about 300 words expressing your views on the statement with the title given.Studying English Abroad: The Best but Not the Only Way。

He began to ______ as the intense cold pervaded the room.A. shakeB. quakeC. jerkD. shiverRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items III，IV， V.(1) “During the whole of a dull，dark and soundless day in the autumn of the year，when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens，I had been passing alone，on horseback，through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at length found myself，as the shades of the evening drew on，within view ofthe melancholy House of Usher.”Thus Edgar Allan Poe opened his story of “The Fall of the House of Usher”in 1839. In this beautifully crafted sentence he captured so much that is essential to the horror story—darkness，ominous solitude，foreboding calm，apprehension and uncertainty，and a deep feeling of melancholy that could soon turn to fear.(2) Many kinds of fiction are self-explanatory: mysteries，westerns，love stories，spy thrillers，and science fiction define themselves by the terms used to name them. The horror story is less easily defined，perhaps because other types of fiction so often use the trappings of terror to enhance their plots. Charles Dickens used the vehicle of an old-fashioned ghost Story to tell “A Christmas Carol”，but that book is not a horror story. Nor does a Grimm brothers fairy tale such as “Hänsel and Gretel，”with its child-devouring witch，belong to the genre. (3) The nature of the horror story is bestindicated by the title of the 1990s television series Tales from the Dark Side. Human beings have always acknowledged that there is evil in the world and a dark side to human nature that cannot be explained except perhaps in religious terms. This evil may be imagined as having an almost unlimited power to inspire anxiety，fear，dread，and terror in addition to doing actual physical and mental harm.(4) In the tale of horror quite ordinary people are confronted by something unknown and fearful，which can be neither understood nor explained in reasonable terms. It is the emphasis on the unreasonable that lies at the heart of horror stories.(5) This kind of literature arose in the 18th century at the start of a movement called Romanticism. The movement was a reaction against a rational，ordered world in which humanity was basically good and everything could be explained scientifically. The literary type that inspired the horror story is Gothicfiction，tales of evil，often set in sinister medieval surroundings. This original kind of horror fiction has persisted to the present. An early 20th-century master of the type was H.P. Lovecraft，most of whose stories appeared in the magazine Weird Tales. A more recent writer was Stephen King，author of Carrie(1974)，The Shining(1977)，Pet Sematary(1984)，Misery (1987)，and Rose Madder (1995).(6) Much horror literature is grounded in superstition，fear of demons，and the dread of death. No single tale brings all of these elements together so well as the vampire legend，an ancient folk superstition. The vampire is described as undead，an entombed individual who rises each night to feed on the blood of the living. In literature its best representation is Dracula (1897) by Bram Stoker. The legend was retold in Interview with the Vampire(1976) by Anne Rice. The Dracula story was eagerly taken up by Hollywood in the 1931 film that starred Bela Lugosi，and numerous movies on thetheme have been made since.(7) Similar to the vampire legend is the story of the wolfman，the human being under a curse who turns into a half man，half wolf presumably when the moon is full. This creature prowls around，devouring animals，people，or corpses，but he returns to human form by day. As with Dracula，the wolfman became a popular subject for movies，beginning with The Werewolf of London (1935) and the wolfman films of the 1940s. According to one superstition the werewolf，after being killed，turns into a vampire.(8) The belief that the dead can return to haunt and harm the living has long been an element of fiction. Ghost stories are at least as old as the Bible: in the Old Testament，King Saul calls up the ghost of Samuel to foretell the outcome of a battle. In Shakespeare’s Hamlet，the ghost of the slain king provides the information from which Hamlet plots revenge for his father’s murder. One of the masters of the modern ghoststory was Ambrose Bierce，some of whose stories were collected in Ghost and Horror Stories of Ambrose Bierce (1964). A variation on the ghost theme is the haunted house，about which hundreds of stories have been written. (9) Between the vampires and the ghosts are creatures called the living dead and zombies who return from the grave to devour the living. Hollywood celebrated this story in Night of the Living Dead (1968) and other films. In literature one of the best examples is the intriguing book The Beast with Five Fingers (1928; film version 1946) by W.F. Harvey. It is the story of a severed hand that goes on living after its owner dies. The movie Friday the 13th (1980) and its sequels also used the revived corpse as villain. In the 1986 film Trick or Treat，a dead rock music star is called back to life.III. In this section，there are ten incomplete statements or questions，followed by four choices marked A， B，C and D. Choose the best answer and writethe corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. (20 points， 2 points for each) 41.

Ever since civilization began，certain 1 have tried to run away from it in hopes of finding a simpler，more 2 ，and more peaceful life. Unlike the dropouts，they are not 3 .

I knew that I had a facility with words and a power of facing 9 facts，and I felt that this created a sort of private world in which I could get my own back for my 10 in everyday life.Only two people shared her “special” seat: a fine old man in a velvet coat，his hands 11 over a huge carved walking-stick，and a big old woman，sitting 12 ，with a roll of knitting on her embroidered apron.

She had become really quite 15 ，she thought，at listening as though she didn’t listen，at sitting in other people’s lives just for a minute while they talked round her.Our research shows that no company can succeed today by trying to be all things to all people.

He began to ______ as the intense cold pervaded the room.A. shakeB. quakeC. jerkD. shiverRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items III，IV，V.(1) “During the whole of a dull，dark and soundless day in the autumn of the year，when the clouds hung oppressively low in the heavens，I had been passing alone，on horseback，through a singularly dreary tract of country; and at length found myself，as the shades of the evening drew on，within view of the melancholy House of Usher.” Thus Edgar Allan Poe opened his story of “The Fall of the House of Usher” in 1839. In this beautifully crafted sentence he captured so much that is essential to the horror story—darkness，ominous solitude，foreboding calm，apprehension and uncertainty，and a deep feeling of melancholy that could soon turn to fear.(2) Many kinds of fiction are self-explanatory: mysteries，westerns，love stories，spy thrillers，and science fiction define themselves by the terms used to name them. The horror story is less easily defined，perhaps because other types offiction so often use the trappings of terror to enhance their plots. Charles Dickens used the vehicle of an old-fashioned ghost Story to tell “A Christmas Carol”，but that book is not a horror story. Nor does a Grimm brothers fairy tale such as “H?nsel and Gretel，” with its child-devouring witch，belong to the genre.(3) The nature of the horror story is best indicated by the title of the 1990s television series Tales from the Dark Side. Human beings have always acknowledged that there is evil in the world and a dark side to human nature that cannot be explained except perhaps in religious terms. This evil may be imagined as having an almost unlimited power to inspire anxiety，fear，dread，and terror in addition to doing actual physical and mental harm.(4) In the tale of horror quite ordinary people are confronted by something unknown and fearful，which can be neither understood nor explained in reasonable terms. It is the emphasis on the unreasonable that lies at the heart of horror stories.(5) This kind of literature arose in the 18th century at the start of a movement called Romanticism. The movement was a reaction against a rational，ordered world in which humanitywas basically good and everything could be explained scientifically. The literary type that inspired the horror story is Gothic fiction，tales of evil，often set in sinister medieval surroundings. This original kind of horror fiction has persisted to the present. An early 20th-century master of the type was H.P. Lovecraft，most of whose stories appeared in the magazine Weird Tales. A more recent writer was Stephen King，author of Carrie (1974)，The Shining (1977)，Pet Sematary (1984)，Misery (1987)，and Rose Madder (1995).(6) Much horror literature is grounded in superstition，fear of demons，and the dread of death. No single tale brings all of these elements together so well as the vampire legend，an ancient folk superstition. The vampire is described as undead，an entombed individual who rises each night to feed on the blood of the living. In literature its best representation is Dracula (1897) by Bram Stoker. The legend was retold in Interview with the Vampire (1976) by Anne Rice. The Dracula story was eagerly taken up by Hollywood in the 1931 film that starred Bela Lugosi，and numerous movies on the theme have been made since.(7) Similar to the vampire legend is the story of the wolfman，the human being under a curse who turns into a half man，halfwolf presumably when the moon is full. This creature prowls around，devouring animals，people，or corpses，but he returns to human form by day. As with Dracula，the wolfman became a popular subject for movies，beginning with The Werewolf of London (1935) and the wolfman films of the 1940s. According to one superstition the werewolf，after being killed，turns into a vampire.(8) The belief that the dead can return to haunt and harm the living has long been an element of fiction. Ghost stories are at least as old as the Bible: in the Old Testament，King Saul calls up the ghost of Samuel to foretell the outcome of a battle. In Shakespeare’s Hamlet，the ghost of the slain king provides the information from which Hamlet plots reve nge for his father’s murder. One of the masters of the modern ghost story was Ambrose Bierce，some of whose stories were collected in Ghost and Horror Stories of Ambrose Bierce (1964). A variation on the ghost theme is the haunted house，about which hundreds of stories have been written.(9) Between the vampires and the ghosts are creatures called the living dead and zombies who return from the grave to devour the living. Hollywood celebrated this story in Night of the Living Dead (1968) and other films. In literature one of thebest examples is the intriguing book The Beast with Five Fingers (1928; film version 1946) by W.F. Harvey. It is the story of a severed hand that goes on living after its owner dies. The movie Friday the 13th (1980) and its sequels also used the revived corpse as villain. In the 1986 film Trick or Treat，a dead rock music star is called back to life.III. In this section，there are ten incomplete statements or questions，followed by four choices marked A，B，C and D. Choose the best answer and write the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet. (20 points，2 points for each)41.

Some fresh fruits are highly ______ and should be kept in cool places.A. perishableB. eligibleC. permissibleD. affordableRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II, IV, V.(1) A rift is growing between government and higher education, with debates over funding, missions and accountability.(2) In that context, it is all the more worth watching Indiana Governor Mitch Daniels, who assumes the presidency of Purdue University on January 14. Other governors have become college presidents. Some, like Tom K ean, have been very successful. However, Daniels—who brings to the job an unusual blend of leadership experiences in government at the state and national level, public policy,business, and now academe—is coming to office at a time of unusual tension.(3) Governors increasingly characterize the rising costs of higher education and its limitedaccess as unsustainable. Many find it imperative that universities increase their productivity, affordability, access, graduation rates, and accountability. In contrast, university presidents say that quality, not cost, is the real issue in an era in which excellence in higher educationis more urgent than ever before in history. The question, academic leaders say, should not bethe price of college, but who pays, criticizing government for disinvesting in higher education. Bottom line: Between the governors and the presidents, there is increasingly little if any common ground other than recognizing the importance of higher education. They have entirely differentviews of the problem, no agreement on responsibility, and nothing in the way of a shared solution. (4) In his first public action as president of Purdue, Daniels has bridged the chasm with a salary package that incorporates the goals of both the governors and the presidents. He did this intwo ways. The first was conciliatory, eliminating the red flag that sets off both governmentand the academy: He rejected presidential salary inflation. His salary package is smaller than his predecessor’s, placing him tenth among the 12 Big Ten university presidents in terms of salary. There is no deferred compensation.(5) Second, and more importantly in terms of national models, is that Governor Daniels askedfor a salary based upon achieving his goals for the university. The package is divided into twobuckets—base salary and bonus. The bonus is tied to graduation rates, affordability, studentachievement, philanthropic support, faculty excellence, and strategic program initiatives. Inestablishing this bonus system, Daniels married traditional notions of academic quality—as measured by excellence in faculty, programs and resources—with an equal emphasis on effective outcomes and price controls: graduation rates, affordability, and student achievement.(6) In so doing, Daniels has demonstrated his belief that there is common ground to be foundbetween the university and government. The choice is not quality or effectiveness, not excellenceor affordability; the future of higher education is not a zero-sum game in which one side winsand the other loses. Rather, he believes it is possible to balance the seemingly conflictinggoals of government and higher education.(7) Daniels is not the first president to have his salary tied to achieving institutional goals, but he is probably the most visible. Moreover, although Daniels is renouncing involvement inpartisan politics as he enters the Purdue presidency, he is a former Republican governor andparty leader known as a frugal fiscal conservative. Historically, the divisions have been greater between Republicans and the academy than has been the case with Democrats. In a very real sense, what Daniels has chosen to do is somewhat akin to Nixon going to China. He has undertaken anexperiment to be closely watched. If successful, he will have established a potential model forthe country.(8) Typically, presidents reserve such powerful statements for their inaugural addresses. Though such addresses are sincere in intent—I can vouch for that, as someone who has given two andlistened to many more—they are generally aspirational; they articulate hopes and dreams forwhat an institution can become. Daniels has already done something very different. He is putting himself on the line in a very public fashion. Year after year his salary will be determined byhis success. And perhaps even more importantly, his success or failure will be public when hisboard announces the size and rationale for his bonus.(9) It’s a bold step—and Governor Daniels should be applauded for taking it.II.
