Part II When Chichester set out on the greatest voyage of his life, he was nearly sixty-five years old. What's more, he had lung cancer. When he finished the first half of his voyage and arrived in Australia, he could not even walk on shore without help. His friends attempted to dissuade him from continuing the adventure, but he didn't listen. Instead he set sail again to conquer the treacherous Cape Horn. Clipper ships had sailed round Cape Horn in the nineteenth century, but they had plenty of able-bodied men aboard. In contrast, Chichester was all alone and had to cope with every danger all single-handed. At times the sea became sorough that it took all his strength to stop his boat from turning over. Imagine the fear he experienced when the main steering device on Gypsy Moth was damaged by gales. A man without his courage and determination would certainly have been drowned by the sea. 弗朗西斯·齐切斯特在六十五岁时开始了只身环球航行。

Each statement contains information given in one of the paragraphs. Identify the paragraph from which the information is derived. You may choose a paragraph more than once.A)What is love? Some people think it’s lifelong devotion. Others think it’s temporary madness. No matte r what, not that people think that love is not important. They are starved for it; they watch endless numbers of films about happy and unhappy love stories; they listen to hundreds of songs about love ?yet hardly anyone thinks that there is anything that needs to be learned about love.B)This particular attitude is based on several premises(前提) which either singly or collectively tend to give rise to it. Most people see the problem of love primarily as that of eing loved? rather than that of oving? of one capacity to love. In order to be loved, to be lovable, men try to get as rich, successful and powerful as their social positions permit; women are busily involved in making themselves attractive by working on their bodies, dresses, etc. Both men and women also develop pleasant manners, interesting conversation, to be helpful, modest and inoffensive(不冒犯人的).C) A second premise behind the attitude that there is nothing to be learned about love is the assumption that the problem of love is the problem of an bject? not the problem of a apacity? People think that to ove?is simple, but that to find the right object to love ?or to be loved by ?is difficult. There are several reasons behind it. One reason is the changed view of a ove object? Love no longer develops only after marriage is concluded as in traditional cultures. Romantic love, the personal experience of love, has become universal in modern culture. Freedom in love has greatly lifted the importance of the bject?D)Closely related to this reason is another characteristic of modern culture. Our culture is based on the appetite for buying, on the idea of a mutually(双方) favorable exchange. Modern man happiness lies in the excitement of looking at the shop windows, and in buying all that he can afford. He (or she) looks at people in a similar way. ttractive?is what men and women are after. It’s a package of qualities which are popular and wanted on the personality market. Two people fall in love when they have found the best object on the market.E)The third error leading to the attitude that there is nothing to be learned about love lies in the confusion(混淆) between the initial experience of alling?in love, and the permanent state of eing?in love. If two people who have been strangers suddenly let the wall between them break down, they feel close, feel one; this moment of oneness is one of the most exciting and wonderful experiences in life. However, this type of love is by its very nature not lasting. When the two persons become well acquainted(熟悉的), their intimacy is losing its magic until their mutual boredom(厌烦) kills whatever is left of the initial excitement.F)This attitude ?that nothing is easier than to love ?hascontinued to be spreading in our society. If any other activity, which is started with such huge hopes and expectations, and yet, fails so regularly, as love, people would be eager to know the reasons for the failure, to learn how to do better, or they would give up the activity. Since the latter is impossible in the case of love, there seems to be only one way to overcome the failure of love ?to examine the reasons for this failure, and to proceed to study the meaning of love.G)To learn about love is to learn about an art. That involves the mastery of the theory and the mastery of the practice. If I want to learn the art of medicine, I must first know the facts about the human body and various diseases. When I have all this theoretical knowledge, I am by no means competent in the art of medicine. Only after I have a great deal of practice, when my theoretical knowledge and my practice are blended into one ?my intuition, shall I become a master. Besides, there is a third factor necessary to becoming a master in any art ?the mastery of the art must be a matter of ultimate concern. This holds true for music, for medicine, for sports ?and for love.______11.It’s impossible for people to give up love and thus it’s necessary to find ways to overcome the failure of love.______12.People think love is important, but few people become aware that love is something that needs to be learned.______13.T o master the art of love, people should learn what makes love and practice it until the two are blended into one ?the intuition.______14.There is little reason to be surprised that human love relations follow the same pattern of exchange which governs the commodity(商品) and the labor market.______15.Two people being crazy about each other in thebeginning proves both the intensity of their love and the degree of their preceding loneliness.______16.Many of the ways men and women use to make themselves lovable are the ways used to make themselves successful, to win friends and influence people.______17.In many traditional cultures, love was mostly not a spontaneous(自发的) personal experience which then might lead to marriage, but was supposed to develop once the marriage had been concluded.Section CDirections: There are two passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice.Passage OneThe Internet is changing the way society communicates, processes information and knowledge. Some of these developments are exciting and challenging, but in one particular sense the Internet creates a fundamental challenge to the way humans interact.Today, Internet dating has become more or less accepted as a way of forming relationships. There has been some criticism, but it has usually been of the functional and operational(操作上的) kind, regarding membership costs or users providing false pictures or information. There has been little thought or comment on why matchmaking websites by itself might be a bad thing.Online matchmaking is conditioned on the idea of making rational choices. Internet dating is like shopping at LoveMart. We watch and read the adverts (people profiles) and we then, makea rational decision to try the product. The more choices we have, we are told, the better for making the choice.Furthermore, the way dating websites calculate(计算) matches distorts(扭曲) the very core of interpersonal relations. Online seekers of partners and friends rely on computer calculations of a set of hard questions. The questions that many of these websites use are so terrible (are you happy with your life?A. Yes,B. No,C. Most of the time? that they cannot reflect real conversations. THIS is not human interaction; it is a fundamental shift. Interpersonal relationships are being shifted into products that can be (supposedly) objectively measured and objectively chosen, even though such relations represent the exact opposite.In his book, Alain Badiou noted love ?this great irrational driver of humanity ?has become an object, which people wish to be fully informed about, choose rationally, and not suffer any unexpected disappointments from. It is, as philosopher Slavoj Zizek has noted, like caffeine-free coffee.Some critics have suggested that online dating is taking society back to a pre-modern version of arranged marriages. I would say it is worse. It has taken over the very essence(实质)of what it means to be human.18.What’s known about online dating?A) It has become the most popular way of forming relationships.B) It costs no money to become a member online.C) It provides false pictures and information for users.D) It is rarely criticized for its own sake(自身缘故).19.What’s the reason for online dating being introduced?A) To help users make rational choices.B) To provide users with many choices.C) To ask users to do shopping online.D) To help users to try the product before buying.20.How does online dating influence human interactions?A) It measures human interactions objectively.B) It makes human interactions objective.C) It can’n reflect the real human interactions.D) It can correct human interactions.21.What is 搇ove?according to Alain Badiou?A) Love is reasonable.B) Love is irrational.C) Love is disappointing.D) Love is surprising.22.What’s the writer attitude towards online dating?A) Disapproving.B) Encouraging.C) Faithful. D) Extreme.Passage TwoRomance in China is often sacrificed to practicality; dating has largely become a commercial transaction. In Beijing parents gather in parks to introduce their children to one another. Singles?clubs set people up according to requirements ?height, income, property. And tens of thousands participate in matchmaking events in cities like Shanghai looking for the perfect mate. arriage in many ways in China is a way of pulling resources,?says Roseann Lake, a Beijing-based journalist researching a book on heng nv? In one direction, at least, he idea that a woman, no matter how successful she is professionally, is absolutely nothing until she is married ?it still comes down to that.?Yes, China has experienced miraculous growth in the past three decades, but traditions are hard to shake. Confucian ethics stress that marriage must satisfy societal duty over individual desire.The one-child policy has further reinforced these expectations. In China, the young are expected to provide for theold: whom you marry matters for your entire family.These concerns aren’t evenly shared, and they expose something of a generation gap. Children of the 1980s and 1990s ?who were born in better economic times and fed on pop music and movies ?are in less of a hurry to get married than their parents were.Although China changed birth rate means there will be a surplus(过剩) of about 24 million men in China by 2020, the majority of these singles will live in rural areas. In major cities ?where the rate of housing costs to income can reach 12:1 ?finding a good match is a constant worry for educated, ambitious women.When Chinese Valentine Day nears, preparations for dozens of matchmaking events, most aimed at marriage, are picking up.

Besides, learning by heart as many well-written essays as possible is also very important. Without an enormous store of good English writing in your head you cannot express yourself freely in English.

English was first spoken by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded England in the fifth century. They passed onto us the basic vocabulary of English. In over fifteen centuries of its development, English has enriched itself by massive borrowing. As British immigrants landed in America and established the United States as an independent nation, a new variety was added to the Englishlanguage: American English. Though some people worry that the language is running out of control, many native speakers of English take pride in the tolerance of their language.U8clozespellstrickenmisfortunessurroundingsblossom/bloommigrantdesertedsilencesickenedhatchpuzzledin harmony withThis village was once famous for its beautiful natural surroundings.

……………………………………………………………最新资料推荐………………………………………………… 1 Unit 2 Passage 1 英国女王2009 圣诞致词 过去每年似乎都各具特点。一些年份让我们心满意足,一些年份则最好忘却。2009 年对很多人来说都是艰难的一年,尤其是那些深受经济衰退之苦的人们。 我相信,我们所有人都受到阿富汗战事影响,为英军士兵伤亡感到悲伤。我们向这些 士兵的家人和朋友表示慰问,他们面对巨大个人损失表现得无比高尚。 但我们应该为我们的士兵与盟友一道作出的积极贡献而感到骄傲。英国和包括加拿 大、澳大利亚、新西兰和新加坡在内的英联邦国家眼下共有超过1.3 万名士兵在阿富汗服 役。我们对这些年轻士兵以及先前在阿富汗服役过的士兵表示深深感激。 今年是英联邦成立60 周年,今天其成员国25 岁以下人口超过10 亿,为它保持长 久的强大和实力提供了力量源泉。 最近我刚刚参加了在特立尼达和多巴哥举行的英联邦政府首脑会议,听到联邦对年轻 人是多么重要。新的通讯技术使他们能够接触到更广阔的世界,分享他们的经验和观点。 对于许多人来说,英联邦的实际援助与网络可以提供技能,给予意见和鼓励进取。 令人鼓舞的是,我了解到一些年轻人正在做着一些事情,他们面对挑战,富于创造力 和创新精神。 对关系到我们所有人的问题保持讨论很重要,它让我们的大家庭产生更大的价值。在 英联邦成立以来的大部分时间里,我都同它联系紧密。 我珍视同各国领袖、人民之间在个人和生活上的紧密联系,这不单是象征意义上的, 也能促进我们的团结。 英联邦并非只是一个具有某种使命的组织,更是一个让各国人民合作、解决实际困难 的平台。在涉及我们生活的许多方面,不论是体育、环境、商业或文化,英联邦国家之间 的联系生动活泼而且丰富多彩。在很多方面这展现未来的前景。随着不断的支持和贡献, 我相信多元化的英联邦国家之间能加强超越政治、宗教、种族和经济环境的凝聚力。 众所周知,圣诞节是欢庆与家人团聚的时候,但我们也可以借这个时机反思那些国内 外不幸者面临的困境。 基督徒接受的教义是要爱他们的邻居,有同情心,乐于慈善和志愿工作,以减轻贫困 和弱势者的负担。 我们自己会面临一连串的困难和挑战,这些困难和挑战会令我们感到困惑,但我们绝 不能停下脚步,而应该继续努力,为自己和他人创造更美好的未来。 不论你们现时身在何处,我都祝愿你们圣诞快乐! 13 Passage 2 美国第一夫人米歇尔· 奥巴马在英国伦敦伊斯灵顿伊丽莎白· 安德森女校的演讲(节选) 这是我的第一次出访,作为第一夫人的第一次外事出访。你们能相信吗?虽然这不是 我第一次来英国,但我得说很高兴我的首次官方访问是来英国。美国和英国之间的特殊关 系,不只是基于政府间的关系,还基于我们有共同的语言和价值观。看见你们大家就使我 想到这一点。在访问期间我特别荣幸地会见了英国一些最出色的女性,她们在为你们所有 女孩子铺路。 我也很荣幸见到你们这些英国和世界未来的领导者,尽管我们的生活背景好像相差很 远,我是作为美国第一夫人站在这里,而你们还正在上学。 但我想让你们了解我们其实有很多共同之处。因为在我生命历程中没有任何东西曾经 预示我会作为美利坚合众国的第一位非洲裔第一夫人站在这里。我的资历里没有什么东西 ……………………………………………………………最新资料推荐………………………………………………… 2 能使我站在这个位置上。我不是被财富和资源养大的,也谈不上有什么社会地位。我生长 在芝加哥市的南部,那个地方是真正的芝加哥。我出身于工人阶级。父亲一辈子是个市政 工人,母亲是个家庭妇女。她待在家里照顾我和我哥哥。我父母都没上过大学。我爸爸正 值壮年的时候被诊断患有多种硬化症。但就在他难以行走,而且早上难以穿衣的时候—— 我看着他挣扎得越来越厉害——我父亲却从来没有抱怨过他的困难。他对于自己拥有的一 切心存感激。他只是起得更早一点,工作得更努力一点。哥哥和我在成长过程中得到了人 生真正需要的一切:爱,强有力的价值观:以及一个信念:就是靠着良好的教育,还有大 量的辛勤工作,没有什么是我们做不到的。 我个人的例子表明女孩子能创造奇迹,只要她们从生命最开始的时候,就受到周围人 的爱护和教养。非凡的女性围绕着我的生活:祖母,老师,姨妈,表姐妹,邻居,她们教 会我沉默的力量和尊严。还有我母亲,她是我生命中最重要的榜样,她和我们住在白宫帮 着照顾我们的两个小女儿,玛丽娅和萨莎。她在孩子们和我的生活中都很活跃,并正在给 她们灌输那些她曾教给我和我哥哥的价值观:同情心、正直、自信和坚定。所有这些都包 含在无条件的爱之中,那是只有一个祖母才能给予的爱。 我也很幸运地从一些男性榜样那里得到珍爱和鼓励,包括我父亲、哥哥、叔伯和祖 父。我生命中的男人们也教会我一些重要的东西。他们教会我互相尊重的男女关系应该是 什么样子的。拥有一个牢固的婚姻是什么感觉:那是建立在信念和承诺之上,以及对彼此 独特天赋的赞赏。他们教我怎样为人父母、养育家人;不仅要关注自己的家庭也要伸手去 帮助养育更广泛的社区里的孩子。 我也在自己的丈夫身上寻找到同样的品质,他就是巴拉克· 奥巴马。在我们最初相识 的时候,我记得,他带我出去约会,而约会内容是和他一起去开一个社区会议。是啊,够 浪漫的吧。我们相识的时候,巴拉克是一个社区组织者。他的工作是帮助人家找工作,以 及努力把资源带给有困难的邻里。当他同那个社区中心里的居民交谈的时候他谈到两个概 念:“现实世界”和“理想世界”。我在竞选的整个过程中也谈到这些。他说,我们常常接 受了这两种观念之间的差距;有的时侯我们满足于现实世界,即使它没有反映我们的价值 14 观和愿望。但是那天巴拉克提醒了我们,包括在那间屋子里的所有人,我们都知道世界应 该是什么样子的。我们都知道公平、正义和机会是什么样子的,我们全都知道。他敦促到 会的人们,那个社区里的人们,使他们献身于缩小那两种观念之间的差距,一起努力把现 实世界变成和理想世界一样。 我今天想起这些是因为我确信,在这所学校里,你们所有人都是缩小这差距非常重要 的因素。你们是要建立理想世界的女性。你们将写出历史的下一个篇章,不只是为你们自 己,而且是为你们这一代人以及未来的几代人。这就是为什么得到良好的教育是这么的重 要。这就是为什么你们正在这经历的所有这一切—— 一切的成功与失败,所有的老师,无 论你喜欢与否——都很重要,因为社区和国家,还有归根结底这个世界,它们的强大取决 于其中女性的健康。记住这一点很重要。 我们知道你们能做到。我们爱你们。谢谢大家。 Passage 3 在“2009 金融与重庆可持续发展研讨会”上的开幕致词 伦敦金融城市长陆毅安先生 尊敬的副市长先生,总领事先生,女生们、先生们: 今天很高兴跟各位一道启动“2009 金融与重庆可持续发展研讨会”。非常感谢重庆 市金融办和诺实公司的曹平先生对本次研讨会的赞助! 几周前,我与全国人大外事委员会的几位委员进行了会晤,并聆听了全国人大环资委 ……………………………………………………………最新资料推荐………………………………………………… 3 的资深委员杨庚宇先生讲述中国正在采取的节能减排措施。在实现可持续的低碳复苏方 面,我们一致认为经济滑坡给了我们大家投资绿色技术并出台相应政策的机会,同时,我 还要指出,这次机遇也肯定会给中国和英国创造大量的就业。 将这一切变为现实的诸多政策已经到位。这些政策包括: ●“英中可持续城市行动计划”,该计划是去年温家宝总理访问英国的时候签订的; ● 2009 年英中峰会达成的在气候变化、低碳示范区和气候变化技术转让方面的协议; ● 中国“十二五”规划中的环境目标; ● 最近英国政府和重庆市政府签署的备忘录; ● 同时,英国政府还致力于跟中国政府紧密合作,解决任何突出的知识产权问题。 因此,我们非常希望利用这个契机让重庆成为21 世纪世界版图上致力于环保的中心 城市。 我们知道,一个重视提高能效和推广可再生技术的绿色财政刺激方案,在全球愈发 认识到我们必须走向绿色的时候,肯定能有效地推动就业、刺激经济,并带来竞争优势。 正如英国外务大臣几周前指出的一样:“绿色不再是议事日程上的一项议题,它就是整个 议程。” 虽然接下来要采取的措施需要这次研讨会讨论决定,但这里我想说,英国非常愿意尽 可能地为重庆提供必要的融资和技术上的支持,并且已经在这么做了。渣打银行与亚洲开 发银行的能效提升计划就是诸多例子之一。 15 另一个案例则是诺实公司力推的极富想象力的“两河技术产业园”项目。根据其企划 案,该项目在吸引高科技企业入园的同时,将帮助重庆实现在最近双方签署的“重庆-英 国可持续城市备忘录”中提出的城乡协调发展的目标。 当然,“两河技术产业园”项目还需要重庆市政府的最终批准,而且,我们很高兴看 到该项目迅速得到了重视。这是好消息! 女士们,先生们,我们任重而道远!双方的良好意愿已经以备忘录和政策的形式得以 体现,现在需要的就是具体落实!谢谢大家! Passage 4 斐济总理沃雷恩盖· 姆拜尼马拉马上海世博会电视致词 致2010 年中国上海世博会: 很高兴斐济可以和其他太平洋国家一同参加2010 年上海世博会。2010 年上海世界 贸易博览会是一个极好的机会,它将227 个参加这次世界文化盛会的国家聚集在一起, 探索并分享各国的宝贵创新与经验。毫无疑问,今天世界正见证着一个巨大的成功,一个 至少会吸引全球七千多万访客的盛大博览活动,一个以视觉、嗅觉、味觉、听觉、感觉来 呈现各国文化魅力的展示平台。 此次博览会首次由一个发展中国家举办,而且规模如此宏大,体现了中国政府在筹备 组织的带领指导下,奉献、担当与勤勉的精神。在此,我谨代表斐济,向为此次盛会成功 筹备和举办而付出了不懈努力的中华人民共和国表示感谢与祝贺,代表我们代表团,向中 国政府世博会的主办机构及辛勤努力的工作人员,表示最诚挚的感谢,感谢你们的帮助和 奉献。我要祝贺你们团队,并保证太平洋国家馆将会尽展我们的祝愿和我们这个地区的独 特之处,而斐济展台更将是一份独特的体验。我还想感谢中国主办机构提供的财政帮助。 这是一个让世界了解中国的有利时机,是发展并加强与各参展国之间合作关系的绝佳契 机,斐济非常荣幸可以成为其中的一员。 这次博览会为我们提供的跨文化对话的创新和互动,集中体现了今年的主题“城市, 让生活更美好”。这一主题体现了我们要改善身处其中的社会环境的追求,而科学技术的
