(The underlined sentences are to be translated.) Passage OneMovies were first made in Hollywood before World War I. The constant sunshine and mild climate of southern California made it an ideal site for shooting pictures. Hollywood’s fame and fortune reached its peak in the 1930s and 1940s. In those days Hollywood was like a magnet, drawing ambitious young men and women from all over the world. Most of them had only their good looks to recommend and had no acting experience or ability-whatsoever. Occasionally they got jobs, if they were lucky enough to be noticed. Some people worked in cafes or gas stations, hoping to attract the attention of some important person connected with the movies. Most of them hoped in vain.As for the stars themselves, they were under control by the studio chief who could make or break stars. The stars were “persuaded” to sign seven-year contracts, during which time the studios built up their images. Under their contracts the stars did not have the right to choose their parts.

American football is different. Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances to move the ball ten yards. They can carry it or they can throw it. If they move the ball ten yards, they can try to move it another ten yards. If they move it to the field, they receive six points.It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the other team try to stop the man with the ball. If he does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team.Each university wants its own team to win. Many thousands of people come to watch. They all shout for their favorite team.Young men and women come on the field to help the people shout more. They dance and jump while they shout. Each team plays ten or eleven games each season. The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best tams play again on January 1, the first day of the New Year.

ShoutingPassage ThreeCulture is one of the most challenging elements of the international marketplace. This system of learned behavior patterns characteristic of the members of a given society is constantly shaped by a set of dynamic variables: language, religion, values and attitudes, manners and customs, aesthetics, technology, education, and social institutions. To cope with this system, an international manager needs both factual and interpretive knowledge of culture. To some extent, the factual knowledge can be learned; its interpretation comes only through experience.The most complicated problems in dealing with the cultural environment stem from the fact that one cannot learn culture—one has to live it. Two schools of thought exist in the business world on how to deal with cultural diversity. One is that business is business the world around, following the model of Pepsi and McDonald’s. In some cases, globalization is a fact of life; however, cultural differences are still far fromconverging.The other school proposes that companies must tailor business approaches to individual cultures. Setting up policies and procedures in each country has been compared to an organ transplant; the critical question centers around acceptance or rejection. The major challenge to the international manager is to make sure that rejection is not a result of cultural myopia or even blindness.Fortune examined the international performance of a dozen large companies that earn 20 percent or more of their revenue overseas. The internationally successful companies all share an important quality: patience. They have not rushed into situations but rather built their operations carefully by following the most basic business principles. These principles are to know your adversary, know your audience, and know your customer.11. According to the passage, which of the following is true?A. All international managers can learn culture.B. Business diversity is not necessary.C. Views differ on how to treat culture in business world.D. Most people do not know foreign culture well.12. According to the author, the model of Pepsi_________.A. is in line with the theories that the business is business the world around.B. is different from the model of McDonald’s.C. shows the reverse of globalization.D. has converged cultural differences.13. The two schools of thought____________.A. both propose that companies should tailor business approaches to individual culturesB. both advocate that different policies be set up in different countriesC. admit the existence of cultural diversity in business worldD. both A and B14. This article is supposed to be most useful for those____________.A. who are interested in researching the topic of cultural diversityB. who have connections to more than one type of cultureC. who want to travel abroadD. who want to run business on International Scale15. According to Fortune, successful international companies________________.A. earn 20 percent or more of their revenue overseasB. all have the quality of patienceC. will follow the overseas local culturesD. adopt the policy of internationalizationPassage FourMany thousands of years ago, there were no houses such as people live in today. In those ancient times, men sometimes made their homes in trees, using the leaves to keep off rain and sun. Their object in building their houses in trees is to be safe from their enemies and from wild beats. If people in those old times had been more civilized, they would have had stronger building materials than leaves and branches.In colder countries, the people of long ago used to live in caves. It was too cold and stormy to live in trees. Sometimes, across the opening of the cave they made a wall of stones, in order to keep out wild animals.As years went on and the human race progressed, men learned more about living in comfort and safety. They became more civilized and left woods and caves. They built houses of different materials such as mud, wood, or stones.During the last hundred years, many new building methods have been discovered. One of the most recent discoveries is to use steel as a building material. Nowadays, when it is necessary to make a very tall building, the frame of it is first built of steel, and then building is completed in concrete.But whatever building it may be, it should be light, airy, and comfortable. Human being cannot keep healthy without sunlight and fresh, clean air to breathe.16. In ancient times, the purpose in building houses is ______.A. to keep off rain and sunB. that the people were more civilizedC. that the weather is too cold and stormyD. to avoid being attacked by the enemies and wild animals17. In ancient times, people would live in caves, _______.A. because human race evolvedB. because it is too cold and rainingC. because there was a wall of stoneD. because human being hadn’t had stronger building18. Which statement is not true according to the passage?A. People became civilized and they left the forest.B. The modern building is made of steel and concreteC. In old days, trees were good places for people to be safe.D. The building made of steel is more airy than that made of stone19. All of the following can be used as building material except _______.A. leavesB. stoneC. steelD. mud20. Which of the following can serve as the title of the passage?A. Building and HealthB.

Each passage is followed by somequestions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C), and D). You should decide on the best choice and write the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage:I was born in the city of York, in England, in the year 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. My father gave me strong advice against it, but with little effect. One day, being at Hull, I met a school-fellow who was about to sail for London in his father's ship, and he invited me to go with him, and without telling my father, I went on board. On the way to London, a storm arose, the ship was wrecked (失事), and we barely escaped with our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a vessel which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He took a fancy to me, and offered me a chance to go with him on his voyages, which I gladly accepted.A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (被颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we struck a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we launched (使…下水)a boat. After we had been driven four or five miles,a mountainous wave struck us so hard that it overturned the boat at once.Though I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was dashed (被猛撞) against a rock with such force that it left me senseless. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely.1. What did the author want to do most when he was young ？ A) To visit Africa. B) To sail the seas. C) To practice law.D) To make a tour of London.2. Why did the author go on foot to London? A) The ship he took was destroyed in a storm.B) His father did not supply the fare for the journey. C) He went against his father's strong advice not to do so D) His school-fellow invited him to go together. 3. Why did they launch a boat?A) They knew they were near the Shore.B) The big waves were about to overturn the ship.C) Their ship had been knocked about for many days on the sea. D) Their ship had struck sand and was about to break into pieces. 4. When the author got to the mainland, he _______ A) searched everywhere for his lost companions B) fell down on the ground senseless C) was safe and soundD) ran forward to escape being washed back into the sea5. When the author finally arrived on land, he most probably ______ A) knew he was in Africa B) did not know where he wasC) was not aware he was back in EnglandD) got in touch with his family and asked for helpPassage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage:Although Thomas Jefferson did not begin the effort of designing the系 专业 准考证号 姓名 考场University of Virginia until late in his life, the education of the common man had occupied his thoughts for decades. He believed ignorance (无知) to be the enemy of freedom, and he wanted to correct what he considered to be the weaknesses of educational institutions (机构) modeled on European settings. He imagined that an "academical village" around a tree-lined lawn would provide an ideal setting in which to pursue higher education, the center of such a village would be a Temple of Knowledge that would house the university library.When Virginia decided to set up a state university in 1818, the retired U.S. President finally was able to devote his talent, time, and energy to creating this new kind of educational institution. By the time he was finished with his design, Jefferson had invented an entirely new American setting for higher education: the college campus.In 1812, Jefferson chose to begin buliding his 'academical village," the University of Virginia. in Charlottesville, V A, far away from the city center. He intended this spot to promote learning because it was natural and unspoiled, and far from anything that could distract or harm the students. The University consists of two rows of houses, five on each side, leading to a main building. This main building, the Rotunda, became the most important part of the University, because it contained the library. By focusing his entire institution on the library, instead of around the church. Jefferson revo-lutionized American university architecture.Jefferson's aim was to create a new institutional form for his ideal educational system, a system he thought should give every citizen the information he needs for carrying out his ,daily business. This new approach to citizenship and education demanded a new type of university, one where students and professors could coexist and share ideas He attempted to create this environment by combining the professors' houses and students' classrooms, and linking all the buildings with covered walkways so intellectual exchanges between departments could go on smoothly. Jefferson had also recognized the importance of the students' whole life, and given much thought and planning to the students' dining, living, and exercise facilities (设施).6. Jefferson devoted much of his thought to the education of the common man because he believed _______.A) everyone who loved freedom hated ignoranceB) a country could not be strong without educationC) an uneducated man could not gain full freedomD) European educational institutions did not suit America7. According to Jefferson, the center of a university should be ______.A) the churchB) the libraryC) the lawnD) the classrooms8. Jefferson chose to locate the University of Virginia far away from the citycenter because_______.A) land in the city center could not be foundB) there was a tree-lined lawn thereC) this was a European traditionD) there was no distraction for the students9. In Jefferson's view, an ideal educational system should_______.A) be one under which every citizen enjoys equal opportunityB) give everyone the information he needs for conducting his businessC) ensure that everyone has a chance to enter an institution of higher learningD) provide students with a natural and unspoiled setting for learning10. What was made easy by the revolutionized American campus?A) Students' learning.B) Intellectual exchange.C) Professors' teaching.D) Both students' and professors' lifePassage ThreeQuestions 11 to 15 ore based on the following passage:The good news we get from TV and radio makes us feel more kindly toward other people, but bad news—especially news of cruelty and violence —stirs upsuspicion and a sense of competition toward others.These are the findings of 10 years of experiments by research psychologists (心理学家) at Columbia University, who conclude that broadcasters encouragehostile (敌对的) behavior by stressing bad news."We found that the news people are exposed to either encourages them to concentrate on the differences between themselves and others, or on the common第2 页共5 页problems that make them feel, 'We're all in this together,'" explained Dr. Harvey Hornstein."News about one human being helping another ... brings our feelings of trust and cooperation. But news about one person actually doing harm to another changes our estimate of other people for the worse."In an early experiment in 1968, Dr. Hornstein and his associates, who had been dropping wallets (钱包) for two years to test the honesty of people, discovered that on June 4, 1968, not one wallet was returned."That was the night Robert F. Kennedy was shot," he recalled. "Strangers suddenly seemed dangerous, and nobody wanted to return a lost wallet to a stranger."But good news on the other hand, lifts us up," he stressed, citing the date of July 4, 1976, America's Bicentennial (两百年的) celebration. "On that day, we all felt safe and good. Being American was the thing. We all felt as if we all belonged together."Recent tests surport these conclusions, in one experiment, 60 subjects were exposed to good news, bad news or music. Then they were told to play a game with a non-existent person supposedly in another room. it was a game of choice that emphasized cooperation or competition.After hearing good news, the overwhelming majority, 91 percent, played cooperatively. But after hearing bad news competitive responses were over three times as high — up to 28 percent, from 9 percent."if we watch television and see a lot of blood," said Dr. Hornstein, "we're probably assuming that the world is a dirtier place than we assumed before we saw that TV violence. And we'll deal with the next individual we come upon as if he is part of that grim (冷酷的) picture of humanity. After the good news, it's the reverse."11. According to the findings of researchers at Columbia University, when people hear good news, they feel_______.A) happierB) more kindly toward othersC) safer than they really areD) more competitive12. Dr. Harvey Hornstein found that when people hear news about one personactually doing harm to another, they tend to _______.A) regard other people as worse than they really areB) treat total strangers as suspects of cruel crimesC) become hostile towards neighbors and friendsD) think about the common problems facing mankind13. What did Dr. Harvey Hornstein and his associates discover on the night ofJune 4, 1968？A) Robert F. Kennedy was shot.B) Their wallets were lost.C) People in America suddenly became dishonest.D) Nobody returned the wallets they dropped.14. We can infer from the passage that on July 4, 1976, most probably _______.A) people drank and sang and dancedB) lost wallets were returned to their ownersC) everybody wanted to be AmericanD) even criminals were friendly to others15. We can conclude from the passage that .A) violence on TV leads to more violence on the streetsB) broadcasters should emphasize good news rather than bad newsC) the world is a dirtier place than we assume it to beD) people are more competitive when they are faced with challengesPassage FourQuestions 16 to 20 are based on following passage:A study suggests that dirty air can reduce lung development. Researchers atthe University of Southern California in Los Angeles published their work in theNew England Journal of Medicine.About one thousand seven hundred children from different communities in Southern California took part in the study. The scientists tested the children everyyear for eight years, starting at age ten They say this is the longest study everdone on air pollution and the health of children.The scientists found that children who lived in areas with the dirtiest air wire five times more likely to grow up with weak lungs. Many were using less thaneighty percent of normal lung strength, to breathe.第3 页共5 页The damage from dirty air was as bad as that found in children with parents who smoke. Children with reduced lung power may suffer more severe effects from a common cold, for example.But the researchers express greater concerns about long-time effects. They say adults normally begin to lose one percent of their lung power each year after age twenty. The doctors note that weak lung activity is the second leading cause of early deaths among adults. The first is smoking.By the time people are eighteen, their lungs are fully developed, or close to it. The doctors say it is impossible to recover from any damage.Researchers say they are still not sure how air pollution affects lung development. They believe that pollution affects the tiny air spaces where oxygen and carbon dioxide （二氧化碳）are exchanged.Arden Pope is an economics professor at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. Professor Pope wrote a commentary about the study. He noted that air quality in Southern California has improved since the study began in the early nineteen-nineties. Clean-air laws have reduced pollution from vehicles, industry and other causes.But dirty air is still a problem in areas of California and other places. Professor Pope says continued efforts to improve air quality are likely to provide additional improvements in health.16. A study done by researchers at the University of Southern California indicates that _______.A) 1,700 children from Southern California have weak lung activitiesB) children in Southern California use less lung strength to breatheC) air pollution may affect the growth of children's lungsD) 80 percent of children in Southern California suffer from air pollution17. According to the article, children living in dirty airA) may lose eighty percent of their normal lung strengthB) may suffer more severe effects from a common coldC) were five times more likely to catch a common coldD) were unlikely to recover from any lung damage18. Why do the researchers express greater concern about the long-term effects of air pollution on children?A) They begin to lose 1% of their lung power each year after 20.B) They do not show any signs of lung damage when they are young.C) They may suffer early death when they grow up.D) They cannot expect to have their lungs fully developed at 18.19. What do we learn from the passage about the air in Southern California?A) It is unlikely to improve in the near future.B) It is free of pollution from vehicles and industry.C) It is as dirty as it was before.D) It is cleaner than it was in the early 1990s.20. Professor Pope believes thatA) improvement in air quality will provide further health benefitsB) clean-air laws should be passed to reduce air pollution in CaliforniaC) further studies should be done to find out how dirty air affects lung developmentD) air pollution does even greater harm to children's health than their parents' smoking二、Vocabulary and Structure (20 Points)Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this part.
