The First Men in the Moon was published in 1901. How many of those who read it realized that men really were going to walk on the moon within their lifetime?And what about The Time Machine and The Invisible Man? Are we going to wake up one morning and find that here too Wells was forecasting events which were going to come true?Task 2Unit 7But Edison was a dreamer as well as a worker. From his earliest days as a child he wondered about the secrets of nature. Nature, he often said, is full of secrets. He tried to understand them; then, he tried to learn what could usefully be done with them.Edison enjoyed thinking. He knew that most people will do almost anything instead of the difficult work of thinking, especially if they do not think very often. But he knew, too, that thinking can give men enjoyment and pleasure.Task 1【答案】1) Because he wrote an astonishing number of books.2) Mankind would have to create a world state.3) No.4) Cities were destroyed by bombs dropped from aeroplanes.5) Any two of the following: The War in the Air, The First Men in the Moon, The Time Machine, and The Invisible Man.6) Events forecast in Well‟s books might come true.【原文】H. G. Wells was born in 1866. His energy must have been enormous, for he wrote an astonishing number of books. Many of the later ones were concerned with his idea that mankind would have to create a world state, if it was not to end up by destroying itself.There we're novels like Kipps, Love and Mr. Lewisham and The History of Mr. Polly. The best of these are now recognized as classics. But in addition, this incredible man somehow found the time and inspiration to write the stories forecasting future events that entitle him to be known as the father of science fiction.When The War in the Air appeared in 1908, how many people could have foreseen that within thirty years great cities were going to be destroyed by bombs dropped from aeroplanes? The First Men in the Moon was published in 1901. How many of those who read it realized that men really were going to walk on the moon within their lifetime?And what about The Time Machine and The Invisible Man? Are we going to wake up one morning and find that here too Wells was forecasting events which were going to come true?Task 2【答案】A.1) b 2) c 3) c 4) aB.1) tall; narrow; tousled 2) surveyed; half-closed 3) taking a long stride4) capable; flexible; still life 5) faded; frayed6) tilted his head; smiled; walked forward; with a flourish【原文】If you came into his studio in the evening as the sun was setting you could see him. You would notice how the soft light coming through the long windows fell on his left profile as he stood in front of his easel. He was tall; his shoulders were narrow; his head was large with an abundance of dark, tousled hair.He surveyed the canvas in front of him and half-closed his eyes. His cheek bones were high and prominent, and accentuated the line of the jaw. This in turn set off his long neck. He stepped back, taking a long stride, and remained with one foot in front of the other. He wore sandals without socks and you could see that a big toe had developed a blister where a leather strap cut across it. He had short, strong, capable fingers and he used his broad, flexible thumb to smooth some of the paint on the still life he was busy finishing. The jeans he wore were faded and frayed; paint rags hung from each pocket. His shirt was a checked one of many colors, mainly purple, blue and yellow. It contrasted peculiarly with the ephemeral colors on the canvas. He tilted his head to one side, smiled, walked forward and brought his brush slowly towards the bottom of the canvas, and with a flourish signed his name.Task 3【答案】A.1) F 2) T 3) F 4) F 5) F 6) T 7) F 8) TB.1) dramatic sunsets and sunrises 2) 1930s; 1840s; impressionistic3) reds; oranges; 1820【原文】Joseph Turner (1775—1851) is one of the two greatest English landscape painters of his age. He is especially noted for his imaginative water colours and oil paintings, which often show dramatic sunsets and sunrises, done in a brilliant kaleidoscope of colours. His painting Burning ofthe Houses of Parliament appears in colour in the Painting article. During the 1830s and 1840s, the method he used became more and more impressionistic. His work influenced the impressionist movement in France led by Claude Monet in the 1870s. Turner is also known for his landscape drawings, especially the book of drawings called Liber Studiorum, which he produced between 1807 and 1819.Turner was influenced at first by Rembrandt and later by Claude. He began to use bright colours in his paintings, especially the reds and oranges for which he is known, after about 1820. Some of his most famous paintings are Childe Harold's Pilgrimage, Ulysses Deriding Polyphemus, Bay of Baiae, and View of Orvieto.Turner was born in London, the son of a barber. He was' something of a boy genius, and exhibited at the Royal Academy at the age of 15. He traveled widely, first in England and Scotland, and after 1800 in France, Italy, and Germany. Turner drew and painted wherever he went, working incessantly and producing hundreds of paintings and thousands of drawings, many of which he left to the nation. During his lifetime Turner was said to be a miser, and towards the end of his life, he became slovenly, solitary, and secretive. Many people did not like his work until John Ruskin championed him in 1843, but Turner died wealthy and was buried in St. Paul's Cathedral, London. He left his money to a charity for poor English artists.Task 4【答案】1) A natural curiosity./A good interviewer is one who likes meeting people and wants to find out about them.2) A curious kind of affinity with people, and an ability to get on will with people.3) Because television depends a lot on the director getting the right shot.4) By research./By knowing more about the guest than they‟ve forgotten about themselves.5) All./Every ounce of research.6) Because Mitchum rarely said anything.7) Because very often the interviewees spin off into areas that the interviewer has never thought about and sometimes it‟s worth pursing.8) A traffic cop.9) Talent, ambition and energy.【原文】Interviewer: With all your experience of interviewing, Michael, how can you tell if somebody is going to make a good interviewer?Michael: Oh, I say, what a question! I've never been asked that before. I think that the prerequisite obviously is curiosity. I think that's a natural one, not an assumed one. Ithink the people who have done my job, and the graveyard of the BBC is littered withthem, their tombstones are there, you know; who failed, have been because basicallythey've not been journalists. My training was in journalism. I've been 26 years ajournalist and, to be a journalist argues that you like meeting people to start with, andalso you want to find out about them. So that's the prerequisite. After that, I thinkthere's something else comes into it, into play, and I think again, most successfuljournalists have it: It's a curious kind of affinity with people; it's an ability to get onwith people; it's a kind of body warmth, if you like. If you knew the secret of it andcould bottle it and sell it, you'd make a fortune.Interviewer: When you've done an interview yourself, how do you feel whether it's been a good interview or not a good interview?Michael: I can never really tell on air. I have to watch it back, because television depends so much on your director getting the right shot, the right reaction you can't--it's amazing.Sometimes I think "Oh, that's a boring interview" and just because of the way mydirector shot it, and shot reaction he's composed a picture that's made it far moreinteresting than it actually was.Interviewer: How do you bring out the best in people, because you always seem to manage to, not only relax them, but somehow get right into the depths of them.Michael: By research. By knowing, when you go into a television studio, more about the guest in front of you than they've forgotten about themselves. And, I mean that's pureresearch. I mean, you probably use, in a 20 minute interview; I probably use, oh, a20th of the research material that I've absorbed, but that's what you've got to do. Imean I once interviewed Robert Mitchum for 75 minutes and the longest reply I gotfrom him was "Yes." And that's the only time I've used every ounce of research andevery question that I've ever thought of, and a few that I hadn't thought of as well. Butthat really is the answer — it's research. When people say to you, you know, "Oh yougo out and wing it", I mean that's nonsense. If anybody ever tries to tell you that as aninterviewer just starting, that you wing it, there's no such thing. It's all preparation —it's knowing exactly what you're going to do at any given point and knowing what youwant from the person.Interviewer: And does that include sticking to written questions or do you deviate?Michael: No, I mean what you do is you have an aide memoire. I have. My list of questions aren't questions as such — they're areas that I block out, and indeed, I can't remember,I can't recall, apart from the foresaid Mr. Mitchum experience, when I've ever stuck tothat at all. Because, quite often you'll find that they spin off into areas that you've notreally thought about and perhaps it's worth pursuing sometimes. The job is very muchlike, actually, a traffic cop — you're like you're on point duty and you're, you knowwhen you're directing the flow of traffic, well, you're directing the flow ofconversation, that's basically what you're doing, when you're doing a talk show, in myview.Interviewer: Have you got a last word of encouragement for any young people setting out on what they'd like to be a career as an interviewer?Michael: I envy them, I mean, I really do. I mean I'd go back and do it all again. I think it's the most perfect job for any young person who's got talent and ambition and energy. Andthe nice thing about it is that the proportion of talent is indeed only 5 percent. Theother 95 percent is energy and no examinations to pass. I'd love to do it over again.Task 5【答案】1997, plant trees all over Africa, thirty million, seeds nurseries, communities, planting, taking care of the trees, survives, fuel【原文】Kenyan environmental activist Wangari Maathai says poor women can fight poverty and help the environment by planting trees. In December, she will receive the Nobel Peace Prize for her efforts to save the forests of Africa.Wangari Maathai is the twelfth woman since nineteen oh one to win the prize. Last year the Norwegian Nobel Committee also recognized a woman, Shirin Ebadi of Iran. She is a lawyer who has fought for human rights for women.But this is the first time the peace prize will go to an African woman. It is also the first time someone within the environmental movement has been recognized at such a high level. The Nobel Committee said: "Peace on earth depends on our ability to secure our living environment."In 1977, Wangari Maathai started the Green Belt Movement. The goal is to plant trees all over Africa, to replace those cut down over the years. Trees are the main source of cooking fuel. Trees also protect wildlife. And they keep nutrients in the soil and help prevent flooding.Today the program operates in a number of countries. A reported thirty million trees have been planted.Young trees are grown from seeds at thousands of nurseries. The Green Belt Movement gives these young trees to communities. Locally trained people advise women farmers about planting and taking care of the trees. The movement pays farmers for every tree that survives. Later the women can use some of the trees for fuel.Professor Maathai is sixty-four years old. She studied in the United States and Kenya. She is believed to have been the first woman in East and Central Africa to earn a doctorate degree. She became a professor of animal science at the University of Nairobi. But her activism angered the former government in Kenya. She was beaten and arrested.Now, she is assistant minister of environment, natural resources and wildlife.But she does not speak out only about the environment. In August, she called the AIDS virus a biological weapon to control black people. Later, she said her comments were meant to get people to ask questions and not think of AIDS as a "curse from God."Wangari Maathai will receive the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo on December tenth. She will also receive almost one point four million dollars in prize money.Task 6【答案】I.A. NorwayB. the United StatesII.A. a lack of balance; inflation; recessionB. low interest rates; increased government spending; higher interest ratesC. low employment; high inflationD. high employment; low inflation; the time consistency problemⅢ.A. business cyclesB. new technologyC. market correctionsD. an increase in oil price【原文】The winners of the Nobel prize in economics this year are Finn Kydland of Norway and Edward Prescott of the United States.Mister Prescott is an adviser at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis, Minnesota. He is also an Arizona State University professor. Mister Kydland is a professor at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.The prize recognizes their work together on two studies. The first was published in nineteen seventy-seven.Before the 1970s, economic problems were seen mainly in terms of a lack of balance. Too much demand caused inflation. Too much supply caused a recession.Governments would take steps aggressively to re-balance supply and demand. Low interest rates and increased government spending would expand growth and employment. Then, if prices went up too much, higher interest rates would ease inflation.But in the 70s, many nations experienced both low employment and high inflation at the same time. This was called stagflation. And no one could explain it.Finn Kydland and Edward Prescott showed that stagflation resulted when policymakers did not do as they promised. Most governments say they want high employment and low inflation. But, over time, events can cause them not to follow their stated economic policy to support these goals. This is called the time consistency problem.The two economists published another study in nineteen eighty-two. They developed ways to explain business cycles, times of increase or decrease in economic activity. They showed how new technology creates periods of economic growth and productivity.Markets then make corrections which slow the growth. Wages change. Investments change. People buy more or less of things. The two economists showed how activities at this level govern an economy. They also showed how a shock like an increase in oil prices can affect business cycles.Today, their work influences central bank officials and policymakers around the world.Task 7【答案】A.1) It was originally released in local newspaper in serial form.2) The two short, little sections are easily doable, and then you get hooked on the story and wonder what‟s happening next.3) Through mail and twice a month.4) Because the book opens on Christmas Eve and it has a strong message about family.5) 5,600B.1) 1860; London; in suspense2) adventures; love; betrayal; a poor orphan3) any likeness of either of them; photograph; their tombstones4) Industrial Revolution; altering daily life5) profound change; fundamental values【原文】Host: In December, 1860, the first serialized part of Charles Dickens' Great Expectations hit the streets of London. Every week, readers were kept in suspense waiting for the nextinstallment. Over the next few months, Stanford University will let readersexperience Great Expectations the way Victorians did.Reporter: It's Thursday evening and the Stevens' family has settled into the living room to take turns reading the latest weekly installment of Great Expectations. Peter andRosemary Stevens thought that the installment plan was a terrific way to read GreatExpectations with their seven- and eight-year-old daughters.Mrs. Stevens: You have two short, little sections that are easily doable, and where if it's a huge book, you'd say, "How am I going to approach this?" where if it's little pieces, say,"Oh, okay. I can do this." And then you get hooked on the story and think, "Well,what's happening next?"Reporter: It's a little like a very good soap opera, says Rosemary. Most of Dickens' novels —Oliver Twist, A Christmas Carol and Great Expectations — were released in serialform. Stanford University Professor Linda Paulson wanted to recreate thatexperience.Prof. Paulson: Imagine sitting there in 1860, this brand-new Dickens' novel. You know him as a writer. You respect him. He's wonderful. He's great fun. And you don't know whathe's got in his mind.Reporter: Dickens' works were originally released in local newspapers. Stanford made copies of the installments and sends them to readers through the mail twice a month. Theuniversity kicked off the serial with a public reading by local actor MarcoBarricelli.Mr. Barricelli: My father's family name, being Pirrip, and my Christian name, Philip, my infant tongue could make of both names nothing longer or more explicit than Pip. So Icalled myself Pip and came to be called Pip.Reporter: For those who aren't familiar with Great Expectations, it is the story of Pip, who writes as an adult looking back on his youth. He faces adventures, love and betrayal,too. Like many Dickens' characters, Pip is born a poor orphan.Mr. Barricelli: As I never saw my father or my mother, and never saw any likeness of either of them, for their days were long before the days of photographs, my first fanciesregarding what they were like were unreasonably derived from their tombstones.Reporter: Paulson says Great Expectations was a good choice for this time of year because it opens on Christmas Eve and it has a strong message about family.Prof. Paulson: The idea of what constitutes a family, which is not necessarily the biological family.Reporter: Dickens was writing during the Industrial Revolution, says Paulson, at a moment when technology was altering daily life.Prof. Paulson: He was looking at a world that was in profound change and reminding people that there were some fundamental values that they needed always to remember, and Ithink that's not far off from what we are trying to remind ourselves of now.Reporter: More than 500 people showed up for the public reading, and 5,600 have signed up to get the serial installments. For many, like Alison Price, it is an opportunity to getcloser to friends and family.Ms. Price: I'm doing it with my parents, who live in Southern California, and my friend Miriam and my husband. So we're sort of doing it together.Reporter: Although Price and everyone else could just go out and buy a copy of Great Expectations, most seem to enjoy waiting expectantly for the next episode to arrive in the mail.Task 8【答案】the ability to laugh; luxury; a unifying force; disagree; ideological factions; political camps; a sense of humour; a universal appeal; a correct sense of values; taking ourselves too seriously; tragedy; comedy; irony; satire; redress the balance; arrogant politicians; absurdity; powerful; laughter; happiness; uniquely human; key【原文】Biologically, there is only one quality which distinguishes us from animals: the ability to laugh. In a universe which appears to be utterly devoid of humor, we enjoy this supreme luxury. And it is a luxury, for unlike any other bodily process, laughter does not seem to serve a biologically useful purpose. In a divide world, laughter is a unifying force. Human beings oppose each other on a great many issues. Nations may disagree about systems of government and human relations may be plagued by ideological factions and political camps, but we all share the ability to laugh. And laughter, in turn, depends on that most complex and subtle of all human qualities: a sense of humor. Certain comic stereotypes have a universal appeal. This can best be seen from the world-wide popularity of Charlie Chaplin‟s early films. The little man at odds with society never fails to amuse no matter which country we come from. As that great commentator on human affairs, Dr. Samuel Johnson, once remarked, …Men have been wise in very different modes; but they have always laughed in the same way.‟A sense of humor may take various forms and laughter may be anything from a refined tingle to an earth quaking roar, but the effect is always the same. Humor helps us to maintain a correct sense of values. It is the one quality which political fanatics appear to lack. If we can see the funny side, we never make the mistake of taking ourselves too seriously. We are always reminded that tragedy is not really far removed from comedy, so we never get a lopsided view of things.This is one of the chief functions of satire and irony. Human pain and suffering are so grim; we hover so often on the brink of war; political realities are usually enough to plunge us into totaldespair. In such circumstances, cartoons and satirical accounts of somber political events redress the balance. They take the wind out of pompous and arrogant politicians who have lost their sense of proportion. They enable us to see that many of our most profound actions are merely comic or absurd. We laugh when a great satirist like Swift writes about war in Gulliver’s Travels. The Lilliputians and their neighbors attack each other because they can‟t agree which end to break an egg. We laugh because we meant to laugh; but we are meant to weep too. It is too powerful a weapon to be allowed to flourish.The sense of humor must be singled out as man‟s most important quality because it is associated with laughter. And laughter, in turn, is associated with happiness. Courage, determination, initiative — these are qualities we share with other forms of life. But the sense of humor is uniquely human. If happiness is one of the great goals of life, then it is the sense of humor that provides the key.Task 9【答案】A.1) At the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.2) The Mona Lisa and The Last Supper.3) Sudies for Leonardo's most famous paintings, and the results of new research into such subjects as Leonardo's patrons, his teachers, and the work of his pupils.4) Because they are particularly sensitive to light and temperature.5) Because drawings are difficult to see in a museum.B.1) T2) F3) T4) F5) TC.1) Master Draftsman; artistic apprenticeship; 1470s; scientist; inventor; France;15192) artist; scientist; theorist; Renaissance Man3) revealing; rationalizing; the mysteries of the world; the great depths of human emotion; convincing4) magical sense; draws; creates; greatest personalities5) reassuring; cajoling; security; insurance; the general public; knowledge【原文】The most comprehensive collection of drawings by Leonardo da Vinci ever assembled in the United States, is on exhibit at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The exhibition is taken from major collections from around the world, and features many pieces not seen in public since the 1930s.Even for seasoned art historian and curator Carmen Bambach, who put together the exhibition of nearly 120 drawings, seeing so many works by Leonardo da Vinci in one place is a moving experience. "It is possibly the most emotional time in my entire life, that I am likely to have. To think about these works you will see on the walls, or that you have already seen on the walls, that normally live in dark, black boxes. To see them all together here, so many of them, is avery, very emotional thing," she said.Leonardo da Vinci —Master Draftsman follows da Vinci's entire career, from his artistic apprenticeship in Florence, Italy in the 1470s, to his highly productive years as a scientist and an inventor in Milan, through to his return to Florence in the beginning of the 16th century, and death in France in 1519.Ms. Bambach said the drawings in the exhibition provide a rare opportunity to confront the diverse talents that made Leonardo da Vinci, artist, scientist, engineer, theorist, teacher, the original "Renaissance Man.""He very much believed in revealing, and in the process of revealing, rationalizing. At the same time, he was deeply and humbly aware of the mysteries of the world, the mysteries of human life. He talks a great deal about that. The mysteries of life, the great depths of human emotion as a kind of shaper of physical gesture. That is why his figures are so deeply convincing."Although Leonardo da Vinci is perhaps best known for paintings such as the Mona Lisa and The Last Supper, very few paintings by the master exist today — 15 at most, whereas there are 4,000 pages of his drawings and notes in various collections throughout the world.The one painting in the exhibition, the unfinished St. Jerome Praying in the Wilderness, has the imprint of the artist's fingers in the upper left corner. Metropolitan Museum Director Philipe de Montebello says tiny details like this are what make the Master Draftsman exhibition so compelling."You get that magical sense that you are looking over the shoulder of the artist as he draws and creates. It brings you in touch with one of the greatest personalities in the world on such a close basis that it is deeply moving," Mr. de Montebello said.The exhibition includes studies for Leonardo's most famous paintings, Virgin and Child with St. Anne, The Last Supper, Adoration of the Magi, as well as a recently discovered, two-sided sketch of a Hercules statue, possibly meant to compete with Michaelangelo's David.Interwoven in the exhibition are the results of copious new research into such subjects as Leonardo da Vinci's patrons, his teachers, and the work of his pupils.Mr. Montebello said the new research helped convince some reluctant lenders to temporarily part with their da Vinci treasures. "There is no question that it took a lot of reassuring and cajoling, in terms of security and insurance and the like, but I think ultimately what prevailed was the seriousness of the project. The new research, the scholarship, the fact that the exhibition will make not only a contribution to the general public, but a contribution to knowledge," he said.Some art experts have questioned the wisdom of transporting and showing such valuable work because of its fragility. The old work is particularly sensitive to light and temperature. But Francoise Viatte, chief curator of drawings at the Musee de Louvre in Paris, says it is a risk worth taking."If we never attempt this kind of thing, very few people will see the works of art in the world.I think part of the job of the museum is to make exhibitions between them in partnerships. Especially for drawings. Because Drawings are difficult to see in a museum. Drawings are a special section in a museum. You have to make a special request and get authorization to see them. So it is very important to make a big exhibition like Leonardo," Ms. Viatte said.21 of the drawings in the exhibition come from the Louvre. Other major contributions come from museums and private collections in the Netherlands, Portugal, Hungary, Italy, Germany, Austria, and the United States. The Royal Library of Windsor Castle in England lent 31 drawings.。

Each choice in the bank is identified by a letter. You may not use any of the words in the bank more than once.The global spread of English over the last 40 years has been remarkable. It is unparalleled in three ways: by the increasing number of (11) of the language; by its depth of penetration into societies; by its range of (12) .In the future three factors will continue to (13) to this spread of English: English usage in science, (14) and commerce; the ability to integrate vocabulary from other languages; and the acceptability of (15) English dialects.However, the future is of English is difficult to (16) , but there are two possibilities: it is an (17) language in at least a hundred years; more language users shift their native languages into English in the 21st century and English may (18) or co-exist with other languages by allowing strangers to communicate (19) language boundaries. It may become one tool that opens windows to the world, unlocks doors to opportunities, and (20) our minds to new ideas.Section B (20 points)Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. Y ou should decide on the best choice.Passage oneThe history of English is conventionally, if perhaps too neatly, divided into three periods usually called Old (or Anglo-Saxon) English, Middle English, and Modern English. The earliestperiod begins with the migration (移民) of certain Germanic tribes from the continent to Britain in the fifth century A.D., though no records of their language survive from before the seventh century, and it continues until the end of the seventh century or a bit later. By that time, Latin, Old Norse (the language of the Viking invaders), and especially the Anglo-Norman French of the dominant class after the Norman Conquest in 1066 had begun to have a substantial impact on the vocabulary, and the well-developed inflectional (词尾变化的) system that typify the grammar of Old English had began to break down.The period of Middle English extends roughly from the twelfth century through the fifteenth. The influence of French (and Latin, often by way of French) upon the vocabulary continued throughout the period, the loss of some inflections and the reduction of others accelerate, and many changes took place within the grammatical systems of the language. A typical prose passage, especially one from the later part of the period, will not have such a foreign look to us as the prose of Old English, but it will not be mistaken for contemporary writing either.The period of Modern English extends from the sixteenth century to our own day. The early part of this period saw the completion of a revolution in vowel (元音) distribution that had began in late Middle English and that effectively brought the language to something resembling its present pattern. Other important early developments include the stabilizing effect on spelling of the printing press and the beginning of the direct influence of Latin, and to a lesser extent, Greek on the vocabulary. Later, as English came into contact with other cultures around the world and distinctive dialects of English developed in the many areas which Britain had colonized, numerous other languages made small but interesting contributions to our word-stock.21. The earliest written record of English available to us started_____.A) from the fifth centuryB) from the seventh centuryC) from the ninth centuryD) from the twelfth century22. What characterized the grammar of Old English?A) The influence of LatinB) A revolution in vowel distributionC) A well-developed inflectional systemD) Loss of some inflection23. It can be inferred from the passage that today_____.A) Even an educated person cannot read Old English without special training.B) A person who knows French well can understand Old English.C) An educated person can understand Old English but cannot pronounce it.D) A person can pronounce Old English words but cannot understand them.24. We can infer from the passage that a prose passage from the fifteenth century _____.A) look like foreign language to contemporary English readersB) is almost the same as Modern English in grammatical structureC) can be understood by contemporary readersD) look more like contemporary English than Old English25. What is the most remarkable characteristic of Modern English?A) Numerous additions to its vocabulary.B) The emergence of new varieties in many parts of the worldC) Gradual changes in its grammatical system.D) The direct influence of Latin.Passage 2It is pretty much a one-way street. While it may be common for university researchers to try their luck in the commercial world, there is very little traffic in the opposite direction. Pay has always been the biggest deterrent, as people with families often feel they cannot afford the drop in salary when moving to a university job. For some industrial scientists, however, the attractions of academia (学术界) outweigh any financial considerations.Helen Lee took a 70% cut in salary when she moved from a senior post in Abbott Laboratories to a medical department at the University of Cambridge. Her main reason for returning to academia mid-career was to take advantage of the greater freedom to choose research questions. Some areas of inquiry have few prospects of a commercial return, and Lee’s is one of them.The impact of a salary cut is probably less severe for a scientist in the early stages of a career. Guy Grant, now a research associate at the Unilever Centre for Molecular Informatics at the University of Cambridge, spent two years working for a pharmaceutical (制药的) company before returning to university as a post-doctoral researcher. He took a 30% salary cut but felt it worthwhile for the greater intellectual opportunities.Higher up the ladder, where a pay cut is usually more significant, the demand for scientists with a wealth of experience in industry is forcing universities to make the transition (转换) to academia more attractive, according to Lee. Industrial scientists tend to receive training that academics do not, such as how to build a multidisciplinary team, manage budgets and negotiate contracts. They are also well placed to bring something extra to the teaching side of an academic role that will help students get a job when they graduate, says Lee, perhaps experience in manufacturing practice or product development. “Only a small numbe r of undergraduates will continue in an academic career. So someone leaving university who already has the skills needed to work in an industrial lab has far more potential in the job market than someone who has spent all their time on a narrow research pr oject.”26. By “a one-way street” (Line 1, Para. 1), the author means ________.A) university researchers know little about the commercial worldB) there is little exchange between industry and academiaC) few industrial scientists would quit to work in a universityD) few university professors are willing to do industrial research27. The word “deterrent” (Line 3, Para. 1) most probably refers to something that ________.A) keeps someone from taking action C) attracts people’s attentionB) helps to move the traffic D) brings someone a financial burden28. What was Helen Lee’s major consideration when she changed her job in the middle of hercareer?A) Flexible work hours. C) Her preference for the lifestyle on campus.B) Her research interests. D) Prospects of academic accomplishments.29. Guy Grant chose to work as a researcher at Cambridge in order to ________.A) do financially more rewarding workB) raise his status in the academic worldC) enrich his experience in medical researchD) exploit better intellectual opportunities30. What contribution can industrial scientists make when they come to teach in a university?A) Increase its graduates’ competitiveness in the job market.B) Develop its students’ potential in research.C) Help it to obtain financial support from industry.D) Gear its research towards practical applications.III.

It has made Bill Gate one of the richest men in the world. William Gates the 3rd was born in 1955, in a western city of Seattle, Washington. He became interested in computers when he was 13 years old. When most young boys his age were playing baseball or football, young Bill Gates was learning to write computer programs. These programs tell computers how to perform useful tasks. Bill Gate attended Harvard University after high school. At Harvard, he began developing thecomputer language called Basic. He began to think that the computer would someday become a valuable tool that could be used in every office and home. Bill Gate returned to Seattle where he established the Microsoft Company in 1975. It employed only three workers. Microsoft developed computer software for established American companies, like General Electric andCitibank. Soon Microsoft was working with the International Business Machines Company known as IBM. In 1981,IBM began selling a personal computer that used Microsoft products as part of its operating system. By then, Microsoft had 129 workers. Today IBM still uses Microsoft's computer operating system. So do many other computer companies. One of the most famous Microsoft products is a program called Windows. Windows makes it much easier to use a computer. Company officials say Microsoft has sold about 40 000 000 copies of the Windows program around the world. Microsoft does thousands of millions of dollars in business each year. It now has more than 16 000 workers in more than 48 countries. Microsoft today produces computer programs in 30 languages and sells them in more than 100 countries.Part II Bill Gate s’ new rulesIf the 1980s were about quality and the 1990s were about re-engineering, then the 2000s will be about velocity. About how quickly business itself will be transacted. About how information access will alter the life-style of consumers and their expectations of business. Quality improvements and business-process improvements will occur far faster. When the increase in velocity is great enough, the very nature of business changes.To function in the digital age, we have developed a new digital infrastructure. It's like the human nervous system. Companies need to have that same kind of nervous system —the ability to run smoothly and efficiently, to respond quickly to emergencies and opportunities to quickly get valuable information to the people in the companywho need it, the ability to quickly make decisions and interact with customers. The successful companies of the nextdecade will be the ones that use digital tools to reinvent the way they work. To make digital information flow an intrinsic part of your company, here are 12 key steps.1. Insist that communication flow through e-mail.2. Study sales data online to share insights easily.3. Shift knowledge workers into high-level thinking.4. Use digital tools to create virtual teams.5. Convert every paper process to a digital process.6. Use digital tools to eliminate single-task jobs.7. Create a digital feedback loop.8. Use digital systems to route customer complaints immediately.9. Use digital communication to redefine the boundaries.10. Transform every business process into just-in-time delivery.11. Use digital delivery to eliminate the middle man.12. Use digital tools to help customers solve problems for themselves.As I said in The Road Ahead, we always overestimate the change that will occur in the next two years and underestimate the change that will occur in the next 10. Don't let yourself be lulled into inaction.You know you have built an excellent digital nervous system when information flows through your organization as quickly and naturally as thought in a human being and when you can use technology to marshal and coordinate teams of people as quickly as you can focus an individual on an issue. It's business at the speed of thought.Part III Great business deals1.In the … er … late 1920s, early 1930s, there was a … a youngGreekbusinessman who … er … made quite a lot of money … er … by importing tobacco into Arge ntina.

Er … he … er … decided he wanted to get into shipping, andto get in to shipping he needed ships so he … he started looking around for some ships to buy with his tobacco fortune and he found ten vessels … er …which belonged to the Canadian National Steamship Company … er … the problem being that they were frozen into the ice in the St Lawrence River in Canada.They'd been rusting away there for two years and were now completely filled up with snow and ice. Er … in fact the story goes that when he went aboard to … er … inspect one of the ships, he fell into a snowdrift and …er …ended up on the deck below. Well, the ships had cost $2 million to build …er … about ten years before, and the owners were prepared to let them go just for a … a scrap price of … er … $30 000 each. He offered $20,000 and the owners accepted.He left them there, stuck in the ice, there was nothing more he could do.Er … but a few years later, the … the world depression … er … came to an end and … er … world war seemed to be looming in Europe and, of course, that led in its turn to a … bit of a shippi ng boom. So the young man, there he was with his ships and … er … he became one of the richest men in the world. His name was … Aristotle Onassis.2.Once upon a time there was an enterprising Scottish actor, called ArthurFurguson, who discovered that he could make a very good living selling things that didn't actually belong to him, in other words he was a con man. He firstgot the idea when he was sitting in the middle of Trafalgar Square (in London that is). Um … this was in 1923, and he saw an America n tourist admiring the stone lions and the fountains and Nelson's Column. He introduced himself as the "official guide" to the Square and started to explain the history of the place. And while he was doing this he also slipped in a little mention that as Britain was heavily in debt, the British government was looking for the right kind of person to buy the Square. He said that he was the official government salesman and that the asking price was around ￡6 000. The American said that this was a good price and offered to pay by cheque right away, so Mr. Furguson went off to okay this with his superiors — in other words he went off for an hour and a half and kept the American waiting. Well, he then came back and said, yes, they were willing to sell to the American at that price. The American wrote a check and Furguson gave him a receipt and the address of a company who would dismantle the Square and get it ready for shipping it to the States. Then he went off to cash the check.Soon after that he sold Big Ben for ￡1 000 and took a down payment on Buckingham Palace of ￡2 000. Two years later he went to the United States and leased the White House to a Texas cattleman for 99 years for $100 000 per annum. Later he arranged to sell the Statue of Liberty to an Australian for $100 000, but unfortunately Furguson allowed the buyer to take a photograph of him and the Australian, feeling slightly suspicious, showed thephotograph to the police. Furguson was identified and sent to prison for fraud for five years. When he came out he retired to California, where he lived in luxury until he died in 1938.Part IV More about the topic: alt DisneyPresenter:Walt Disney is well known as the creator of Mickey Mouse and the inventor of Disneyland and Walt Disney World, but his creationsare better known than his life. Peter Spencer is the author ofa new book about Disney. What was Walt Disney's backgroundPeter:Walter Elias Disney was born in 1901 in Chicago but actually he was brought up in a small town in the Mid-West near Kansas City,Missouri, which incidentally was later used as the model for MainStreet in Disneyland. Um ... he first studies cartooning, you know, by doing a correspondence course. During the First WorldWar he worked as a … a driver for the American R ed Cross but afterthe war he returned to Kansas City where he met a guy called UbIwerks. Now they … er … started to work together on a series of experimental-type films ... um … and after a while they set off to California to join Walt's elder brother Roy who was livingthere in Los Angeles.Presenter:When did Mickey Mouse first appearPeter:Ah, well, Disney and Iwerks first invented a character called Oswald the Rabbit but then in 1928 a new character wasborn:cheerful, sometimes rather naughty, energetic mouse with largefunny ears. Yes, it was Mickey and he appeared for the first timein the first talking cartoon film, called Steamboat Willie. Er …not many people know this but Walt Disney actually provided thevoice for Mickey. By the way, he was almost called "Mortimer Mouse", which doesn't have the same kind of ring to it, or doesit Well, Roy and Walt gathered a team of artists … er …illustrators together … um … by this time Ub Iwerks had left them and started his own company, this was in 1930, and DisneyStudi os, as they called themselves, starting … started to producethe famous short cartoons with … starring Mickey and Minnie andDonald Duck and Pluto and Goofy. Er … Roy was the business managerand driving force behind the company … er … m aking it very profitable and Walt was more the … er … imaginative, creativepart of the partnership.Presenter:What kind of man was Walt DisneyPeter:Well, according to the artists who worked for him Walt actually couldn't draw very well … er … most of the characters wereactually drawn by Iwerks, but apparently he was an amazingstoryteller. He would act out the stories of films doing all the voices and actions to show the illustrators what he wanted themto do and then they had to go off and try to recreate hisvisualizations.Presenter:The most famous cartoon of all was Snow White — and the best I still think.Peter:Mm, yeah, it was the first feature-length cartoon and it was released in … er … 1935. Now, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfsrequired two million drawings and took three years' work to make.Um … obviously it was … er … very expensive, particularly for those times. By the way, the British film censor gave it an Adultcertificate because he thought that it would be too frighteningfo r little children to see on their own. Er … that was followed by Pinocchio and Fantasia in 1940, Dumbo in 1941. And … er …the Disney Studios also started making … um … some rather low-budget live action feature films for children … er …something which th e other studios didn't dare risk doing. Er …some of his films mixed live action with cartoons —er … I'm thinking about Mary Poppins, which I think we've probably allseen, made in 1964, where cartoon characters and … and the reallife actors appeared together on screen and talked anddanced andsang together. Disney was one of the first to see the potential of television, all the other studios were afraid of this medium.Um … so he started to produce films directly for television and …and now of course there's a Disney Channel showing only Disneyfilms.Presenter:And then he dreamt up Disneyland, didn't hePeter:Ah, "dreamt" is the right word. Disneyland was a creation of the land of his dreams: safe, happy, clean, fairy-tale world with itsown Magic Kingdom. The original Disneyland was opened in LosAngeles in 1955 and it cost $17 million. Walt died in 1966 but he was already working on plans for the Disney World in Orlando,Florida, which opened in 1971, and the EPCOT Center near WaltDisney World —that's the "Experimental Prototype Community OfTomorrow", by the way. And there's also a … a Tokyo Disneyland,which was opened in … um … 1983.Presenter:And … and now there's even an Euro Disneyland near Paris, I think.Peter:Yes, that's right. Um … and the Disney Studios still con tinue to produce films in the … the house style, the Walt Disney styleand presumably it always will. Disney's films appealed …um …and still do appeal to children of all ages, but people often criticize them for their lack of taste and they say they're vulgar,but Disney said, "I've never called this art. It's show business and I'm a showman." Well, can you imagine a world without MickeyMousePresenter:Peter Spencer, thank you.Part V Do you know…1. The best real estate deal in historyEven in the days when America was known as the New World, it was a country with a reputation for its spirit of enterprise and the ability of its people to make a good deal.When the settlers started negotiating, the natives hardly knew what had hit them — and in the summer of 1626, probably the most spectacular real estate coup in history took place.Governor Peter Minuit of the Dutch West India Company had the job of buying Manhattan Island from the Indians.After some haggling with Chief Manhasset, the price was agreed at 24 dollars' worth of kettles, axes and cloth.Today, $24 would not buy one square foot of office space in New York City, and an office block in central Manhattan changes hands for around $80 million. Even allowing for inflation, Minuit got himself a real bargain.2. Not again, Josephine!You would think that the Manhattan deal would remain a one-off for ever. But less than two centuries later the loser was Napoleon, Emperor of France and (in his early years, at least) a brilliant military tactician.In 1803, Napoleon had his mind on European affairs (in particular, an invasion ofBritain), so he decided to dispense with France's American possessions.He sold the entire Mississippi valley, an area of 828 000 square miles extending from Canada down to the Gulf of Mexico and westwards to the Rockies, for just over 27 million dollars.Through this deal, known as the Louisiana purchase, President Thomas Jefferson doubled the size of the United States for only around 5 cents per acre.3. Nice ice at a reasonable priceNapoleon did just manage to reach Moscow in his ill-fated invasion of 1812 —but it would seem that news of his poor American deal did not.For, astonishingly, the Russians went on to become the third victims of major land deals with America.On March 30th 1867, the . Secretary of State, William Seward, bought Alaska from Tsar Alexander II for a mere $ million —thereby acquiring another 586 000 square miles of territory for less than 2 cents per acre.The Tsar presumably thought that this remote, frozen and virtually uninhabited piece of land had nothing at all to commend it —and at first, the American people agreed with him, for Alaska was known as "Seward's folly" and "Seward's ice box" for years. In 1896, however, gold was struck at Klondike in the Yukon, and since then, over 750 million dollars' worth has been mined.In 1968, black gold was discovered —and an estimated 100 billion tons of coal are also lying underground, just waiting to be dug up.。

(A)Part FourShort PassageWe will explain some sayings about birds. For example, if something is “for the birds”, it is worthless or not very interesting. Someone who “eats like a bird”eats very little. And “a bird’s eye view” is a general look at an area from above. Have you ever observed that “birds of a feather flock together”? In other words, people who are similar become friends or do things together.There is some good advice. “A bird in a hand is worth two in a bush.” This means you should not risk losing something you have by trying to get more of something you do not have. Sometimes, I can do two things by making only one action. This is called “killing two birds with one stone”. But I would never really kill any birds. I love all kinds of animals. This is “a real feather in my cap”. It is something to be proud of. Most of the people I work with are “early birds”. They believe that “the early bird catches the worm”. They think that a person who gets up early in the morning for work has the best chance of success.Questions:1.What does the saying “a bird’s eye” mean? (C)2.What does the proverb “birds of a feather flock together” mean? (B)3.When the writer mentions “killing two birds with one stone”, what does hesuggest?

(C)Part FiveTrue or False ExercisesPeter had been thrown eight years in prison for robbing a bank near his house. So he was always refused by those employers after he returned home. Everyone knew that he had ever been a prisoner and nobody trusted him. He had wandered for a long time before he finally found a way to support his wife and children. He entered into the same bank where he had robbed, pulled out the same gun, pointed at a clerk and poured out the same words: “Give me your money.”After that, he went out of the bank calmly.
