◇文学传记类Passage1题材：文学传记类字数：416He is fearless,altruistic,steel-willed,hospitable,unbelievably hardy, unpretentious and warm—and he has lost none of these qualities since becoming Russia’s president.It is a scrupulously unbiased snapshot of Vladimir Putin if you believe the author of the first volume of a Kremlin-backed trilogy on Putin’s life,written in the unmistakable style the Soviets once reserved for Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin.“I do not think it is a eulogy.I simply conveyed what people(who met Putin) said,”Oleg Blotsky told a news conference on Monday as he posed for photos with his“Vladimir Putin”.The book,complete with a genealogical tree back to the beginning of the18th century and a chapter dedicated to Putin’s ancestors,spans from his birth to the start of his career as a KGB spy.Putin contributed to the work with extensive interviews to Blotsky.The result is a selection of memories by Putin’s friends and acquaintances who hold nothing but the warmest recollections of him.The only person in the book who does not heap praise on the president is Putin himself,who is characteristically humble.Praise bestowed on the Kremlin leader ranges from young judoist Putin fighting“like a snow leopard”to many years later his being visibly moved whendecorated war veterans in the Kremlin stood up in salute as he entered the hall.It opens with the Kremlin generously answering an old woman’s plea—addressed in a letter to“V.V.Putin,the Kremlin,Moscow”—to help erect a decent tombstone on the grave of Putin’s first teacher.One account portrays Putin as a man who would stop at nothing to win a fight.“He would scratch,bite,snatch tufts of hair,do anything to avoid being humiliated in any way,”an old friend said.But young Putin is also an ordinary boy,frightened by a looming visit to the dentist.The book is written in simple easy-to-read Russian.Blotsky said neither Putin nor any other Kremlin official ever sought to censor his work or steer it in a specific direction.Putin only read the book when it hit shop shelves last week,he said.The book’s first run of15,000copies was selling well in Moscow shops and China,Bulgaria and Slovenia have shown an interest in issuing a translation,the publisher said.Blotsky,who said he was a converted Putinist after his audiences with the president,said he was already working on the second volume of his series “Vladimir Putin:Rise to Power”.1.What do we know about Lenin’s biography according to the second paragraph?[A]It was the first perfect biography without mistakes in Soviet history.[B]It was written in the form of a scrupulously unbiased snapshot.[C]It was written by the same author of Putin’s biography.[D]It was a voluminous Kremlin-backed biography.2.Oleg Blotsky doesn’t want others to regard the biography as______.[A]a praise of Putin[B]public opinions[C]his personal understanding of Putin[D]an imitation of Lenin’s biography3.Putin was deeply touched by the war veterans when______.[A]they sang high praise of him[B]he recalled their heroic deeds[C]they saluted him with respect[D]he decorated them in the Kremlin4.How did Putin react to the plea of erecting a decent tombstone on the grave of his first teacher?[A]He delegated the task to one of his subordinates.[B]He helped erect the tombstone accordingly and willingly.[C]He not only erected the tombstone but also rebuilt the grave.[D]He went to visit the grave before promising to erect the tombstone.5.How was Blotsky influenced by Putin?[A]He decided to write the biography because he was a Putinist.[B]He was sure that the readers would be converted to Putinists.[C]His interviews with Putin made him adore Putin very much.[D]His interviews with Putin eliminated his doubts about Putin.参考答案及解析1.B由第二段可知列宁传记是以the unmistakable style写成的，普京传记在写作上也使用了the unmistakable style，根据上下文推断可知这种unmistakable style指的是该段开头提到的a scrupulously unbiased snapshot.所以B项正确。

But embarrassing scandals and the popularity of the republicans left in the recent Euro-elections have forced him to eat his words and stand down. So, does the Spanish crisis suggest that monarchy is seeing its last days? Does that mean the writing is on the wall for all European royals, with their magnificent uniforms and majestic lifestyles?The Spanish case provides arguments both for and against monarchy. When public opinion is particularly polarized, as it was following the end of the France regime, monarchs can rise above mere polities and embody a spirit of national unity.It is this apparent transcendence of polities that explains monarchys continuing popularity as heads of state. And so, the Middle East expected, Europe is the most monarch-infested region in the world, with 10 kingdoms (not counting Vatican City and Andorra). But unlike their absolutist counterparts in the Gulf and Asia, most royal families have survived because they allow voters to avoid the difficult search for a non-controversial but respected public figure.Even so, kings and queens undoubtedly have a downside. Symbolic of national unity as they claim to be, their very history-and sometimes the way they behave today-embodies outdated and indefensible privileges and inequalities. At a time when Thomas Piketty and other economists are warming of rising inequality and the increasing power of inherited wealth, it is bizarre that wealthy aristocratic families should still be the symbolic heart of modern democratic states.The most successful monarchies strive to abandon or hide their old aristocratic ways. Princes and princesses have day-jobs and ride bicycles, not horses (or helicopters). Even so, these are wealthy families who party with the international 1%, and media intrusiveness makes it increasingly difficult to maintain the right image.While Europes monarchies will no doubt be smart enough to survive for some time to e, it is the British royals who have most to fear from the Spanish example.It is only the Queen who has preserved the monarchys reputation with her rather ordinary (if well-heeled) granny style. The danger will e with Charles, who has both an expensive taste of lifestyle and a pretty hierarchical view of the world. He has failed to understand that monarchies have largely survived because they provide a service-as non-controversial and non-political heads of state. Charles ought to know that as English history shows, it is kings, not republicans, who are the monarchys worst enemies.21. According to the first two graphs, King Juan Carlos of Spain[A]eased his relationship with his rivals.[B]used to enjoy high public support.[C]was unpopular among European royals.[D]ended his reign in embarrassment.22. Monarchs are kept as head of state in Europe mostly[A]to give voters more public figures to look up to.[B]to achieve a balance between tradition and reality.[C]owing to their undoubted and respectable status.[D]due to their everlasting political embodiment.23. Which of the following is shown to be odd, according to graph 4?[A] The role of the nobility in modern democracies.[B] Aristocrats excessive reliance on inherited wealth.[C] The simple lifestyle of the aristocratic families.[D] The nobilitys adherence to their privileges.24. The British royals have most to fear because Charles[A]takes a tough line on political issues.[B]fails to change his lifestyle as advised.[C]takes republicans as his potential allies.[D]fails to adapt himself to his future role.25.

Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET.(40 points)Text 1France,which prides itself as the global innovator of fashion, has decided its fashion industry has lost an absolute right to define physical beauty for women. Its lawmakers gave preliminary approval last week to a law that would make it a crime to employ ultra-thin models on runways.The parliament also agreed to ban websites that incite excessive thinness by promoting extreme dieting.Such measures have a couple of uplifting motives. They suggest beauty should not be defined by looks that end up impinging on health. That;s a start. And the ban on ultra-thin models seems to go beyond protecting models from starving themselves to deathas some have done. It tells the fashion industry that it must take responsibility for the signal it sends women, especially teenage girls, about the social tape-measure they must use to determine their individual worth.The bans, if fully enforced, would suggest to women (and many men) that they should not let others be arbiters of their beauty. And perhaps faintly, they hint that people should look to intangible qualities like character and intellect rather than dieting their way to size zero or wasp-waist physiques.The French measures, however, rely too much on severe punishment to change a culture that still regards beauty as skin-deepand bone-showing. Under the law, using a fashion model that does not meet a government-defined index of body mass could result in a $85,000 fine andsix months in prison.The fashion industry knows it has an inherent problem in focusing on material adornment and idealized body types. In Denmark, the United States, and a few other countries, it is trying to set voluntary standards for models and fashion images that rely more on peer pressure for enforcement.In contrast to France;s actions, Denmark;s fashion industry agreed last month on rules and sanctions regarding the age, health, and other characteristics of models. The newly revised Danish Fashion Ethical Charter clearly states: We are aware of and take responsibility for the impact the fashion industry has on body ideals, especially on young people. The charter;s main tool of enforcement is to deny access for designers and modeling agencies to Copenhagen Fashion Week, which is run by the Danish Fashion Institute. But in general it relies on a name-and-shame method of pliance.Relying on ethical persuasion rather than law to address the misuse of body ideals may be the best step. Even better would be to help elevate notions of beauty beyond the material standards of a particular industry.21.According to the first paragraph, what would happen in France?[A] Physical beauty would be redefined.[B] New runways would be constructed.[C] Websites about dieting would thrive.[D] The fashion industry would decline.22.The phrase impinging on (Line 2,Para 2) is closest in meaning to[A] heightening the value of.[B] indicating the state of.[C] losing faith in.[D] doing harm to.23.Which of the following is true of the fashion industry?[A] The French measures have already failed.[B] New standards are being set in Denmark.[C] Model are no longer under peer pressure.[D] Its inherent problems are getting worse.24. A designer is most likely to be rejected by CFW for[A] setting a high age threshold for models.[B] caring too much about models; character.[C] showing little concern for health factors.[D] pursuing perfect physical conditions.25.Which of the following may be the best title of the text?[A] The Great Threats to the Fashion Industry.[B] Just Another Round of Struggle for Beauty.[C] A Dilemma for the Starving Models in France.[D] A Challenge to the Fashion Industry;s Body Ideals.。

Part Three When prehistoric man arrived in new parts of the world, something strange happened to the large animals. They suddenly became extinct. Smaller species survived. The large, slow-growing animals were easy game, and were quickly hunted to extinction. Now something similar could be happening in the oceans. That the seas are being overfished has been known for years. What researchers such as Ransom Myers and Boris Worm have shown is just how fast things are changing. They have looked at half a century of data from fisheries around the world. Their methods do not attempt to estimate the actual biomass （the amount of living biological matter）of fish species in particular parts of the ocean, but rather changes in that biomass over time. According to their latest paper published in Nature, the biomass of large predators （animals that kill and eat other animals）in a new fishery is reduced on average by 80% within 15 years of the start of exploitation. In some long-fished areas, it has halved again since then. Dr Worm acknowledges that the figures are conservative. One reason for this is that fishing technology has improved. Today's vessels can find their prey using satellites and sonar, which were not available 50 years ago. That means a higher proportion of what is in the sea is being caught, so the real difference between present and past is likely to be worse than the one recorded by changes in catch sizes. In the early days, too, longlines would have been more saturated with fish. Some individuals would therefore not have been caught, since no baited hooks would have been available to trap them, leading to an underestimate of fish stocks in the past. Furthermore, in the early days of longline fishing, a lot of fish were lost to sharks after they had been hooked. That is no longer a problem, because there are fewer sharks around now. Dr Myers and Dr Worm argue that their work gives a correct baseline, which future management efforts must take into account. They believe the data support an idea current among marine biologists, that of the "shifting baseline". The notion is that people have failed to detect the massive changes which have happened in the ocean because they have been looking back only a relatively short time into the past. That matters because theory suggests that the maximum sustainable yield that can be cropped from a fishery comes when the biomass of a target species is about 50% of its original levels. Most fisheries are well below that, which is a bad way to do business.11. The extinction of large prehistoric animals is noted to suggest that____ A. large animal were vulnerable to the changing environment. B. small species survived as large animals disappeared. C. large sea animals may face the same threat today. D. Slow-growing fish outlive fast-growing ones12. We can infer from Dr Myers and Dr. Worm’s paper that____ A. the stock of large predators in some old fisheries has reduced by 90%. B. there are only half as many fisheries as there were 15 years ago. C. the catch sizes in new fisheries are only 20% of the original amount. D. the number of larger predators dropped faster in new fisheries than in the old.13. By saying these figures are conservative （Line 1, paragraph 3）, Dr Worm means that____ A. fishing technology has improved rapidly B. then catch-sizes are actually smaller then recorded C. the marine biomass has suffered a greater loss D. the data collected so far are out of date.14. Dr Myers and other researchers hold that_____ A. people should look for a baseline that can’t work for a longer time. B. fisheries should keep the yield below 50% of the biomass C. the ocean biomass should restored its original level. D. people should adjust the fishing baseline to changing situation15. The author seems to be mainly concerned with most fisheries’___A. management efficiencyB. biomass levelC. catch-size limitsD. technological application.Unit 13（2006）Part 3重点词汇：1.　prey ① n. 被捕获的动物，捕⾷。

下面是2019年考研英语一的一道阅读理解原题：Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.The era of artificial intelligence(AI) is upon us. It refers to the ability of a digital computer or computer-controlled robot to perform tasks commonly associated with intelligent beings. There is a strong belief among experts that AI will play a crucial role in shaping our future. However, opinions on the potential impact of AI differ greatly.Some people argue that AI will lead to the loss of jobs, especially those that involve repetitive tasks. They claim that machines will replace human workers in industries like manufacturing and transportation, resulting in high unemployment rates. In contrast, others believe that AI will create more job opportunities. They argue that the development of AI will lead to theemergence of new industries and the need for skilled workers to design and maintain AI systems.In addition to concerns about employment, there are ethical issues surrounding AI. Questions have been raised about the potential misuse of AI-powered technologies. For example, facial recognition technology could be used by governments and corporations for surveillance purposes, raising concerns about privacy invasion.Despite the debates and concerns, AI is already making significant impact on various industries. For instance, in the field of healthcare, AI technologies are being used to analyze medical data and assist in diagnosis. In the education sector, AI-powered systems are helping teachers personalize learning materials for students. These examples demonstrate the potential of AI to improve our lives and transform industries.1. What does the passage mainly discuss?2. Why do some people believe that AI will lead to unemployment?3.

Putting in a good word for guiltThere are two attitudes toward the sense of guilt: one is to eliminate it in order to live comfortably, which is usually advocated by most psychologists to maintain so-called mental health; 对于“内疚”感，人们有两种不同的态度。

一种就是减少“内疚”感，为的是活得舒服。

这是心理学家提倡的做法，用来维持所谓的心理健康。

The other is to keep it, so that our behavior can be modified under the influence of conscience. 另一种态度是保持“内疚”感，以便我们的行为在道德良心的驱使下能有所改良。

The author analyzes the nature and function of guilt in the deepest level and thinks that this worst emotion actually helps bring out the best in us, while, on the contrary, the lack of guilt is to be questioned. 作者鞭辟入里地分析了“内疚”感的本质及作用，她认为这种让人感到最不舒服的情感实际上能使人向善。

而相反，理应受到质疑的应该是这种“内疚”感的缺失。

[1] Feeling guilty is nothing to feel guilty about. 不必因为有“内疚”感而感到“内疚”。

Yes, guilt can be the excess baggage that keeps us paralyzed unless we dump it. 是的，“内疚”感会使我们背负过多的包袱。

2012年考研英语阅读理解及答案解析法律类GOING BACK AND GETTING IT RIGHTBy almost every measure, Paul Pfingst is an unsentimental prosecutor. Last week the San Diego County district attorney said he fully intends to try suspect Charles Andrew Williams, 15, as an adult for the Santana High School shootings. Even before the tragedy, Pfingst had stood behind the controversial California law that mandates treating murder suspects as young as 14 as adults.So nobody would have wagered that Pfingst would also be the first D.A. in the U.S. to launch his very own Innocence Project. Yet last June, Pfingst told his attorneys to go back over old murder and rape convictions and see if any unravel with newly developed DNA-testing tools. In other words, he wanted to revisit past victories--this time playing for the other team. "I think people misunderstand being conservative for being biased," says Pfingst. "I consider myself a pragmatic guy, and I have no interest in putting innocent people in jail."Around the U.S., flabbergasted defense attorneys and their jailed clients cheered his move. Among prosecutors, however, there was an awkward pause. After all, each DNA test costs as much as $5,000. Then there's the unspoken risk: if dozens of innocents turn up, the D.A. will have indicted his shop.But nine months later, no budgets have been busted or prosecutors ousted. Only the rare case merits review. Pfingst's team considers convictions before 1993, when the city started routine DNA testing. They discard cases if the defendant has been released. Of the 560 remaining files, they have re-examined 200, looking for cases with biological evidence and defendants who still claim innocence.They have identified three so far. The most compelling involves a man serving 12 years for molesting a girl who was playing in his apartment. But others were there at the time. Police found a small drop of saliva on the victim's shirt--too small a sample to test in 1991. Today that spot could free a man. Test results are due any day. Inspired by San Diego, 10 other counties in the U.S. are starting DNA audits.By Amanda Ripley ez ncisco sijevic rtwell; Lisa McLaughlin; Joseph Pierro; Josh Tyrangiel and Sora Song注 (1)本文选自Time; 03/19/2001, Vol. 157 Issue 11, p62, 1p, 2c, 3bw注 (2)本文习题命题模仿对象2004年真题text 1.1.How did Pfingst carry out his own Innocence Project?[A]By getting rid of his bias against the suspects.[B]By revisiting the past victories.[C]By using the newly developed DNA-testing tools.[D]By his cooperation with his attorneys.2.Which of the following can be an advantage of Innocence Project?[A]To help correct the wrong judgments.[B]To oust the unqualified prosecutors.[C]To make the prosecutors in an awkward situation.[D]To cheer up the defense attorneys and their jailed clients.3.The expression “flabbergasted”(Line 1, Paragraph 3) most probably means _______.[A]excited[B]competent[C]embarrassed[D]astounded4.Why was Pfingst an unsentimental prosecutor?[A]He intended to try a fifteen-year old suspect.[B]He had no interest in putting the innocent in jail.[C]He supported the controversial California law.[D]He wanted to try suspect as young as fourteen.5.Which of the following is not true according to the text?[A]Pfingst’s move didn’t have a great coverage.[B] Pfingst’s move had both the positive and negative effect.[C] Pfingst’s move didn’t work well.[D]Pfingst’s move greatly encouraged the jailed prisoners.篇章剖析本文采用的是记叙文的模式。

Unit 13Part One In spite of “endless talk of difference,” American society is an amazing machine for homogenizing people. This is “the democratizing uniformity of dress and discourse, and the casualness and absence of consumption “launched by the 19th –century department stores that offered ‘vast arrays of goods in an elegant atmosphere. Instead of intimate shops catering to a knowledgeable elite.” these were stores “anyone could enter, regardless of class or background. This turned shopping into a public and democratic act.” The mass media, advertising and sports are other forces for homogenization. Immigrants are quickly fitting into this common culture, which may not be altogether elevating but is hardly poisonous. Writing for the National Immigration Forum, Gregory Rodriguez reports that today’s immigration is neither at unprecedented level nor resistant to assimilation. In 1998 immigrants were 9.8 percent of population; in 1900, 13.6 percent. In the 10 years prior to 1990, 3.1 immigrants arrived for every 1,000 residents; in the 10 years prior to 1890, 9.2 for every 1,000. Now, consider three indices of assimilation------language, home ownership and intermarriage. The 1990 Census revealed that “a majority of immigrants from each of the fifteen most common countries of origin spoke English “well” or “very well” after ten years of residence.” The children of immigrants tend to be bilingual and proficient in English. “By the third generation, the original language is lost in the majority of immigrant families.” Hence the description of America as a graveyard” for language. By 1996 foreign-born immigrants who had arrive before 1970 had a home ownership rate of 75.6 percent, higher than the 69.8 percent rate among native-born Americans. Foreign-born Asians and Hispanics “have higher rates of intermarriage than do U.S-born whites and blacks.” By the third generation, one third of Hispanic women are married to non-Hispanics, and 41 percent of Asian-American women are married to non-Asians. Rodriguez not that children in remote villages around world are fans of superstars like Amold Schwarzenegger and Garth Brooks, yet “some Americans fear that immigrant living within the United States remain somehow immune to the nation’s assimilative power.” Are there divisive issues and pockets of seething in America? Indeed. It is big enough to have a bit of everything. But particularly when viewed against America’s turbulent past, today’s social induces suggest a dark and deteriorating social environment.1. The word “homogenizing” （Line 2, Paragraph 1）most probably means___A. identifyingB. associatingC. assimilatingD. monopolizing2. According to the author, the department stores of the 19th century___ A. played a role in the spread of popular culture. B. became intimate shops for common consumers. C. satisfied the needs of a knowledgeable elite. D. owed its emergence to the culture of consumption.3. The text suggests that immigrants now in the U.S.___ A. are resistant to homogenization. B. exert a great influence on American culture. C. are hardly a threat to the common culture. D.constitute the majority of the population.4.

2015考研英语（一）深度解析——阅读理解Text2阅读理解第二篇文章是关于个人隐私数据保护的问题，文章的内容与时俱进，但是题目却比较简单，几乎都可以在原文中迅速找到答案。

第26题，The Supreme court, will work out whether, during an arrest, it is legitimate to_____.(最高法院需要裁决在逮捕过程中什么是否合法)。

根据题目定位到第一段，中心词语是主语supreme court和形容词legitimate，第一段的第二句话就解决了这个问题The Supreme Court will now consider whether police can search the contents of a mobile phone without a warrant…(最高法院正在考虑是否允许警察在逮捕过程中没有搜查许可证而搜查嫌疑人手机内容信息)。

根据这句话可以很快排除C、D选项。

A选项具有迷惑性，search for suspects’mobile phones without a warrant..错在search for(寻找手机)上，与原文不符，原文说的是search the contents of a mobile phone(搜查手机信息内容)。

B选项正确，其中check suspects’phone contents without being authorized…check可以替换为search。

第27题，The author’s attitude toward California’s argument is one of______.这个是观点态度题，需要从文中推断。

选项分别为[A] tolerance.(宽容);[B] indifference. (不关心)——可立刻排除;[C] disapproval.(不赞成);[D] cautiousness.(谨慎)。

Part FiveScience, in practice, depends far less on the experiments it prepares than on the preparedness of the minds of the men who watch the experiments. Sir Isaac Newton supposedly discovered gravity through the fall of an apple. Apples had been falling in many places for centuries and thousands of people had seen them fall. But Newton for years had been curious about the cause of the orbital motion of the moon and planets. What kept them in place? Why didn't they fall out of the sky? The fact that the apple fell down toward the earth and not up into the tree answered the question he had been asking himself about those larger fruits of the heavens, the moon and the planets.How many men would have considered the possibility of an apple falling up into the tree? Newton did because he was not trying to predict anything. He was just wondering. His mind was ready for the unpredictable. Unpredictability is part of the essential nature of research. If you don't have unpredictable things, you don't have research. Scientists tend to forget this when writing their cut and dried reports for the technical journals, but history is filled with examples of it.In talking to some scientists, particularly younger ones, you might gather the impression that they find the "scientific method"a substitute for imaginative thought. I've attended research conferences where a scientist has been asked what he thinks about the advisability of continuing a certain experiment. The scientist has frowned, looked at the graphs, and said "the data are still inconclusive." "We know that," the men from the budget office have said, "but what do you think? Is it worthwhile going on? What do you think we might expect?" The scientist has been shocked at having even been asked to speculate. What this amounts to, of course, is that the scientist has become the victim of his own writings. He has put forward unquestioned claims so consistently that he not only believes them himself, but has convinced industrial and business management that they are true. If experiments are planned and carried out according to plan as faithfully as the reports in the science journals indicate, then it is perfectly logical for management to expect research to produce results measurable in dollars and cents. It is entirely reasonable for auditors to believe that scientists who know exactly where they are going and how they will get there should not be distracted by the necessity of keeping one eye on the cash register while the other eye is on the microscope. Nor, if regularity and conformity to a standard pattern are as desirable to the scientist as the writing of his papers would appear to reflect, is management to be blamed for discriminating against the "odd balls" among researchers in favor of more conventional tinkers who "work well with the team."17. The author wants to prove with the example of Isaac Newton that ________.[A] inquiring minds are more important than scientific experiments[B] science advances when fruitful researches are conducted[C] scientists seldom forget the essential nature of research[D] unpredictability weighs less than prediction in scientific research18. The author asserts that scientists ________.[A] shouldn't replace "scientific method" with imaginative thought[B] shouldn't neglect to speculate on unpredictable things[C] should write more concise reports for technical journals[D] should be confident about their research findings19. It seems that some young scientists ________.[A] have a keen interest in prediction[B] often speculate on the future[C] think highly of creative thinking[D] stick to "scientific method"20. The author implies that the results of scientific research ________.[A] may not be as profitable as they are expected[B] can be measured in dollars and cents[C] rely on conformity to a standard pattern[D] are mostly underestimated by managementUnit 6（1999）Part 5重点词汇：1.supposedly（⼤概；据推测）即suppose+（e）d+ly，suppose（猜想；假设），-ed形容词后缀，-ly副词后缀。

考研英语阅读理解精读练习On the face of things, a fall in the number of people infected with HIV (the virus that causes AIDS) from 39.5m to 33.2m over the course of a single year, as reported in this year's AIDS epidemic update from the World Health Organisation (WHO) and UNAIDS, should be cause for rejoicing. Indeed, it is, for it means there are fewer people to treat, and fewer to pass the infection on, than was previously thought. But the fall is not a real fall. Rather, it is due to a change in the way the size of the epidemic is estimated.If you factor in that change, the number of infected individuals has actually risen since last year, by 500,000. Yet even that is not necessarily bad news in the paradoxical world of AIDS. As treatment programmes are rolled out around the world, death rates are falling. According to the revised figures, the lethal peak, of 2.2m a year, was in 2005. Now the figure is 2.1m. Since the only way for an infected person to drop out of the statistics in reality (as opposed to by sleight of statistical hand) is for him to die, such increased survivorship inevitably pushes up the total size of the epidemic.The best news of all, however, is that the new figures confirm what had previously been suspected—that the epidemic has peaked. The highest annual number of new infections around the world was 3.4m in 1998. That figure has now fallen to 2.5m.Both the change in the death rate and the change in the infection rate are partly a consequence of the natural flow and ebb of any epidemic infection. But they are also a reflection of the hard graft of public-health workers in many countries, who have persuaded millions of people to modify or abandon risky behaviour, such as having unprotected sex, as they have also created the medical infrastructure needed to distribute anti-retroviral drugs that can keep symptoms at bay in those who do become infected.The revision of the figures is mainly a result of better data-collection methods, particularly in India (which accounts for half the downward revision) and five African countries (which account for another fifth). In India many more sampling points have been established, and in all countries better survey methods, relying on surveyors knocking on doors rather than asking questions at clinics, have gathered data from more representative samples.Sceptics will feel vindicated by the revision. They have suspected for a while that the older survey methods were biased, and that the inflation thus produced was tolerated because it helped twang the heart-strings of potential donors. However, the structures for collecting and distributing money to combat AIDS are now well established, and accurate data are crucial if that money is not to be misdirected. The new information also means that the goal of treatment for all who need it will be easier and cheaper to achieve. The WHO and UNAIDS are planning to publish a report on the matter early next year, but Paul De Lay, UNAIDS's director of evidence, monitoring and policy, says that the financial requirements for 2010 will probably be about 5% lessthan previously estimated, and that by 2015 that figure will have risen to 10%. Good news for everyone, then, donors and sufferers alike.1. Though the number of infected individuals has risen, it is still worth rejoicing because_____[A] the number of people who are dying from AIDS has decreased.[B] the total size of the epidemic is shrinking in a significant extent.[C] it is only a rise in the sense of statistics, instead of a real number.[D] in the paradoxical world of AIDS bad news can turn out to be good news.2. About the changes in the death rate and the infection rate of HIV, which one of the following statements is NOT true? [A] Any epidemic will naturally has such changes.[B] They are mainly aroused by the new statistic methods.[C] They clearly mirror of the essential achievements of public-health workers.[D] The death rate has been greatly suppressed due to massive implementation of treatment programmes.3. The word “vindicatde” (Line 1, Paragraph 6) most probably means_____[A] confused.[B] clarified.[C] doubting. [D] annoyed.4. By 2015, the financial requirements will _____[A] have risen by 10% more than what have been previously estimated.[B] be 10% of what have been previously estimated.[C] be 10% less than previously estimated.[D] be 15% less than previously estimated.5. Towards the revision, the author’s attitude can be said to be_____[A] negative.[B] positive.[C] indifferent.[D] neutral.文章剖析：这篇文章介绍了艾滋病统计新方法实施带来的变化。

考研英语历年阅读理解真题精析--2003年part4Part FourIt is said that in England death is pressing, in Canada inevitable and in California optional. Small wonder. Americans' life expectancy has nearly doubled over the past century. Failing hips can be replaced, clinical depression controlled, cataracts removed in a 30-minuts surgical procedure. Such advances offer the aging population a quality of life that was unimaginable when I entered medicine 50 years ago. But not even a great health-care system can cure death-and our failure to confront that reality now threatens this greatness of ours.Death is normal; we are genetically programmed to disintegrate and perish, even under ideal conditions. We all understand that at some level, yet as medical consumers we treat death as a problem to be solved. Shielded by third-party payers from the cost of our care, we demand everything that can possibly be done for us, even if it's useless. The most obvious example is late-stage cancer care. Physicians-frustrated by their inability to cure the disease and fearing loss of hope in the patient-too often offer aggressive treatment far beyond what is scientifically justified.In 1950, the U.S. spent $12.7 billion on health care. In 2002, the cost will be $1540 billion. Anyone can see this trend is unsustainable. Yet few seem willing to try to reverse it. Some scholars conclude that a government with finite resources should simply stop paying for medical care that sustains life beyond a certain age - say 83 or so. Former Colorado governor Richard Lamm has been quoted as saying that the old and infirm "have a duty to die and get out of the way", so that younger, healthier people can realize their potential.I would not go that far. Energetic people now routinely work through their 60sand beyond, and remain dazzlingly productive. At 78, Viacom chairman Sumner Redstone jokingly claims to be 53. Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O'Connor is in her 70s, and former surgeon general C. Everett Koop chairs an Internet start-up in his 80s. These leaders are living proof that prevention works and that we can manage the health problems that come naturally with age. As a mere 68-year-old, I wish to age as productively as they have.Yet there are limits to what a society can spend in this pursuit. As a physician, I know the most costly and dramatic measures may be ineffective and painful. I also know that people in Japan and Sweden, countries that spend far less on medical care, have achieved longer, healthier lives than we have. As a nation, we may be overfunding the quest for unlikely cures while underfunding research on humbler therapies that could improve people's lives.16. What is implied in the first sentence?[A] Americans are better prepared for death than other people.[B] Americans enjoy a higher life quality than ever before.[C] Americans are over-confident of their medical technology.[D] Americans take a vain pride in their long life expectancy.17. The author uses the example of cancer patients to show that ________.[A] medical resources are often wasted. [B] doctors are helpless against fatal diseases.[C] some treatments are too aggressive. [D] medical costs are becoming unaffordable.18. The author's attitude toward Richard Lamm's remark is one of ________.[A] strong disapproval. [B] reserved consent.[C] slight contempt. [D] enthusiastic support.19. In contrast to the U.S., Japan and Sweden are funding their medical care ________.[A] more flexibly. [B] more extravagantly.[C] more cautiously. [D] more reasonably.20. The text intends to express the idea that ________.[A] medicine will further prolong people's lives.[B] life beyond a certain limit is not worth living.[C] death should be accepted as a fact of life.[D] excessive demands increase the cost of health care.Unit 10 （2003） Part 4重点词汇：1. inevitable（不可避免的；必然的）←in+evitable，in-否定前缀，evitable=avoidable 可避免的。

考研英语历年阅读理解真题精析--2005年part3Part ThreeOf all the components of a good night's sleep, dreams seem to be least within our control. In dreams, a window opens into a world where logic is suspended and dead people speak A century ago, Freud formulated his revolutionary theory that dreams were the disguised shadows of our unconscious desires and fears, by the late 1970s, neurologists had switched to thinking of them as just "mental noise" - the random byproducts of the neural-repair work that goes on during sleep. Now researchers suspect that dreams are part of the mind's emotional thermostat, regulating moods while the brain is "off-line". And one leading authority says that these intensely powerful mental events can be not only harnessed but actually brought under conscious control, to help us sleep and feel better. "It's your dream," says Rosalind Cartwright, chair of psychology at Chicago's Medical Center. "If you don't like it, change it"Evidence from brain imaging supports this view. The brain is as active during REM （rapid eye movement）sleep - when most vivid dreams occur - as it is when fully awake, says Dr. Eric Nofzinger at the University of Pittsburgh. But not all parts of the brain are equally involved, the limbic system （the "emotional brain"）is especially active, while the prefronted cortex （the center of intellect and reasoning）is relatively quiet. "We wake up from dreams happy or depressed, and those feelings can stay with us all day," says Stanford sleep researcher Dr. William Dement.The link between dreams and emotions shows up among the patients in Cartwright's clinic Most people seem to have more bad dreams early in the night, progressing toward happier ones before awakening, suggesting that they are working through negative feelings generated during the day. Because our conscious mind is occupied with dailylife we don't always think about the emotional significance of the day's events - until, it appears, we begin to dream.And this process need not be left to the unconscious. Cartwright believes one can exercise conscious control over recurring bad dreams. As soon as you awaken, identify what is upsetting about the dream. Visualize how you would like it to end instead; the next time it occurs, try to wake up just enough to control its course. With much practice people can learn to, literally, do it in their sleep.At the end of the day, there's probably little reason to pay attention to our dreams at all unless they keep us from sleeping or "we wake up in a panic," Cartwright says. Terrorism, economic uncertainties and general feelings of insecurity have increased people's anxiety. Those suffering from persistent nightmares should seek help from a therapist. For the rest of us, the brain has its ways of working through bad feeling. Sleep - or rather dream - on it and you'll feel better in the morning.11. Researchers have come to believe that dreams[A] can be modified in their courses [B] are susceptible to emotional changes[C] reflect our innermost desires and fears [D] are a random outcome of neural repairs12. By referring to the limbic system, the author intends to show[A] it's function in our dreams [B] the mechanism of REM sleep[C] the relation of dreams to emotions [D] its difference from the prefrontal cortex13. The Negative feelings generated during the day tend to[A] aggravate in our unconscious mind [B] develop into happy dreams[C] persist till the time we fall asleep [D] show up in dreams early at night14. Cartwright seems to suggest that[A] waking up in time is essential to the ridding of bad dreams[B] visualizing bad dreams helps bring them under control[C] dreams should be left to their natural progression[D] dreaming may not entirely belong to the unconscious15. What advice might Cartwright give to those who sometimes have bad dreams?[A] Lead your life as usual [B] Seek professional help[C] Exercise conscious control [D] Avoid anxiety in the daytimeUnit12 （2005） Part 3重点词汇：1. component（组成部分，部件，元件） =componere,即com全体+ponere放置。

美国二战后进入这样辉煌的历史时期时，它拥有比任何竞争对手大八倍的市场，这使其工业经济规模前所未有。

它的科学家是世界上最优秀的，它的工人是世界上最具技能的。

美国和美国人的富庶是被大战破坏了经济的欧洲人和亚洲人所无法想象的。

当其他国家逐渐富有起来时，这种差距的缩小是必然的。

同样必然的是，绝对优势的缩小也是痛苦的。

在80年代中期，美国人为他们工业竞争力的减退感到困惑。

有些巨型的美国工业，如消费电子工业，在外国的竞争面前萎缩或者崩溃。

到1987年，只剩下一家美国电视机制造企业——Zenith（现在已经完全没有了：Zenith已经被韩国的LG电子兼并）。

外国汽车和纺织品横扫着国内市场。

美国的机械工业岌岌可危。

在一段时期，好像半导体制造业，这个美国发明的并且对新的计算机时代极为关键的工业，也将成为下一个牺牲品。

所有这些造成了一种信心危机。

美国人已经不再将繁荣视为自然而然的事。

他们开始怀疑他们的经营方法出了问题，怀疑他们的收入很快就会下降。

80年代中期对美国工业衰退的原因进行一次又一次的调查。

这些调查的发现，有的是耸人听闻的，它们都充满了对海外竞争加剧的警示。

现在情况已经完全改变！在1995年美国可以回顾在过去五年中稳步的增长而日本却步履维艰。

很少有美国人把它的原因归结为美元的贬值或经济周期的转折。

对自己的怀疑已经被盲目的自豪所代替。

“美国的工业结果已经改变了，它经过了一段节食期，已经变得更加机智，”哈佛大学肯尼迪行政学院执行院长理查德·卡凡纳指出。

“看到美国经济如此地提高生产力，我为自己是美国人而感到自豪，”华盛顿特区的智囊机构之一凯托研究院的史蒂芬·莫尔说。

哈佛经管学院的威廉·萨尔曼相信，人们将来会把这个时期视为“美国经济管理的黄金时期”。
