37、根据以下资料，回答37-46题：

A. Like many of its Caribbean neighbors, Haiti once drew many tourists. But decades of political instability, repression and poverty, as well as natural

disasters, led to the decay of the tourism infrastructure, and almost no visitors come now. Officials would like to change that. The arts town of Jacmel is one place they think could be a start.

B. A couple of untidy aid workers were sucking down Sunday morning beers at the Hotel Florita here when the minister of tourism rolled up to the roadside, followed by the interior minister with body guards and then the star of the show, New York fashion designer Donna Karan of DKNY. The notables

were in Jacmel, the funky (含有黑人韵味的爵士 ) art and carnival capital of Haiti, to plot the transformation of the earthquake-rattled port from a faded flower of the Caribbean to a resort destination for celebrities.

C. "We're trying to rebrand Haiti, and so we're bringing Donna here to help us with our vision," TourismMinister Stephanie Balrmir Villedrouin said in an interview. "We're trying to raise the bar a little bit,"Said Karma, as she swept through the abandoned Hotel Jacmeliernne--its seaside swimming pool greenwith grass, its overgrown gardens littered with broken glass--" Oh. we can definitely work with this!"

D. As hard as it may be for young Haitians to believe, their country was once a tourist destination. Evenduring the bad old days of the Duvaiier dictatorships ( 独裁), the tourists came. Or at least a few: seeGraham Greene's 1966 novel The Comedians, set incidentally at a hotel and based on a real-lifemansion (大厦), the Hotel Oloffson in the capital; the hotel is still in operation but is now run byRichard Morse, front man for the rock band RAM and the new government's special political envoy (大使) to the Americas. Today, nobody visits Haiti for fun, except Haitians returning from the abroad.The arrivals at the Port-au-Prince airport is filled with Baptist missionaries, UN officials and Americannurses--not a real tourist in sight. Tourism dollars

E. Yet across the Caribbean, revenue from tourism represents about 16 percent of gross domesticproduct, and many island nations, such as the Bahamas, Barbados and Antigua, generate at least athird of their GDP from visitors. For most of the Caribbean, tourists' dollars, euros and pesos (比索)are the No. 1 source of foreign investment.

F. Haiti let its tourism infrastructure degrade over three decades of political instability, hurricanes,earthquakes and deadly disease. But the poorest country in the Western hemisphere has a lot to offerthe adventuresome visitor, according to international planners and Haitian officials. The Creole Frenchcuisine (美食) here is some of the best in the Caribbean; its artisans are of world renown, its blend ofAfrican and Spanish music unique. All this, and rock music, too.

G. The still-evolving plans for Haiti 2. 0 forecast Jacmel as a stand-alone destination, meaning touristswould not land in the disordered, dangerous,

poor capital, Port-au-Prince, but arrive directly here viaair or boat. H.With development aid from banks and donor nations, the government of former carnival singer andcurrent President Michel Martelly is planning to extend the airport runway at Jacmel so it canacconunodate small jets that would shuttle from Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. ; Puerto Rico; and Guadaloupe. The deserted port is also scheduled for restoration to allow big cruise ships to dock.

I. in the late 1800s, Jacmel was an important Caribbean crossroads in Haiti—then called the "Pearl of theAntilles"--and its downtown still harbors the Creole architecture of iron balconies and shuttered ware houses for coffee and orange peel. The town reminds many visitors of the French Quarter in New Orleans, and it hosts one of the best carnivals in the Caribbean, as well as a music festival and a filmfestival, now straggling to gain promotion again after the 2010 earthquake.

Seeing potential in ruin

J.Donna Karan knows Jacmel well; she shot her fall catalog at the Hotel Florita. The New Yorker gamelyjumped into the bed of a small track for a tour of town. It stopped at the Manoir Alexandre, once the most prominent building in the city and now a rain that is slowly being restored by Leon Paul, aHaitian American orthopedic surgeon from New York.

K. "We want to restore the mansion to its former glory, but as you can see, that is a big job," Paul saidas he walked Karan through the property, with its peeling wallpaper, holes in the roof, missing stairsand tilting balcony. L. He said Jacmel, his home town, will rise from the ruins, and he promised that someday soon, Haitiansand visitors will be sitting in his restored mansion, listening to a band, drinking rum and celebrating.

As Karan crawled through the ruins, she saw not despair, but hope: "Wow. Look at this. These aremy colors. The rust, yellow and blue. Take a picture. This is perfect!"

In the Caribbean, Jacmel is well-known for its music festival, film festival and carnivals.

38、The novel The Comedians was mentioned by the author to show Haiti's role as a tourist destination in the past.

39、The airport rtmway at Jacmel is scheduled for extension to cater to the flights of small jets.

40、Haiti has become a place of little attraction due to its political instability, repression and poverty as

well as natural disasters.

41、Tourism has become a major channel for Caribbean countries to attract foreign investment.

42、The French cuisine, unique music and famous artisans made Haiti attractive to visitors.

43、Donna Karan showed up in Jacmel to make plans for the transformation of the city.

44、According to Haiti's restoration plans, tourists will be able to arrive at Jacmel straightly.

45、According to Paul, the restoration work of Manoir Alexandre to its former glory is quite challenging.

46、Officials concerned plan to revive the current tourism industry of Haiti by restoring Jacmel as a starting point.

An ongoing research project, funded by the University of Cambridge, asked a sample of teachers, teacher educators and employers in more than 40 countries a question: whether they regard the native andnon-native

57、根据以下资料，回答57-66题：

New evidence of a sick, deprived population working under harshconditions contradicts earlier images of wealth and abundance from the artrecords of the ancient Egyptian city of Tell el-Amarna, a study has found．Tell el-Amarna was the capital of ancient Egypt during the reign of the pharaoh (法老) Akhenaten, who abandoned most of Egypt's old gods in favor of the Aten sun disk andbrought in a new and more expressive style of art．Akhenaten, who ruled Egypt between 1379 and 1362BC, built and lived in Tell el-Amarna in central Egypt for 15 years．The city was largely abandoned shortlyafter his death and the ascendance of the famous boy king Tutankhamun to the throne．Studies on the remains of ordinary ancient Egyptians in a cemetery in Tell el-Amarna showed thatmany of them suffered from anem/a (贫血症 ), fractured bones, stunted growth and high juvenilemortality rates, according to professors Barry Kemp and Jerome Rose, who led the research．Rose, a professor of anthropology (人类学) in the University of Arkansas in the United States, saidadults buried in the cemetery were probably brought there from other parts of Egypt．"This means that wehave a period of deprivation in Egypt prior to the Amarna phase．So maybe things were not so good for theaverage Egyptian and maybe Akhenaten said we have to change to make things better," he said．Kemp, director of the Amarna Project which seeks in part to increase public knowledge of Tell el-Amarna and surrounding region, said little attention has been given to the cemeteries of ordinary ancient Egyptians．Rose displayed pictures showing spinal (脊柱) injuries among teenagers, probably because of accidents during construction work to build the city．The study showed that anemia ran at 74 percent among children and teenagers, and at 44 percentamong adults, Rose said．The average height of men was 159 cm (5 feet 2 inches) and 153 cm among women．"Adult heights are used as an indicator for overall standard of living," he said．"Short statures(身长) reflect a diet deficient in protein．．．People were not growing to their full potential．"

What is the findings of the study mentioned in the passage?

A．The ancient Tell el-Amarna was famous for its art records．

B．The artistic exhibition of ancient Tell el-Amarna was trustworthy．C．The art records of Tell el-Amarna showed ancient Egyptians' real life．D．Life was really tough for average Egyptians in ancient Tell el-Amarna．

58、According to the passage, we can learn that Akhenaten______．A．brought the ancient Egypt to a period of the greatest prosperity B．mainly held the reins of the ancient government in central Egypt C．worshiped Egypt's old gods, especially favored the sun God Aten D．asked his men to create an original pattern of artistic representation

59、What's the researchers' attitude towards the ordinary ancient Egyptians' life?

C．Sorrowful．

D．Admiring．

60、According to the passage, what is the aim of the Amarna Project? A．To assist the public to obtain more detailed information about ancient Egyptians．

B．To attract people's attention to the tombs of common people in ancient Egypt

C．To unveil the brilliant cultures of the ancient Egyptian city of Tell el-Amarna．

D．To help people understand a certain capital of ancient Egypt and its neighborhood better．

61、Why does the author mention ancient Egyptian adult heights in the last part of the passage ?

D．To demonstrate the average Egyptian's unhealthy diet habits in ancient times．

62、根据以下资料，回答62-71题：

Drink from plastic bottles can raise the body's levels of a controversial "gender-bending" chemical by more than two thirds, according to tests．Experts have been concerned about the possible health effects of bisphenolA (BPA．--an everyday chemical used in many plastic food and drink containers and tins as well as clear baby bottles--which is officially classified as toxic in some countries．A study found that participants who drank for a week from polycarbonate (聚碳酸酯) bottles showed a 69 percent increase in their urine (尿液) of BPA．

Researchers did not say how much liquid was drunk per day．Researchers from Harvard School ofPublic Health studied 77 students, who had first undergone a seven-day "washout" phase in which theydrank all cold beverages (饮料) from stainless steel bottles in order to minimise BPA exposure．

They were then given two polycarbonate bottles and asked to drink all cold beverages from themduring the next week．Previous studies have suggested that high levels of BPA consumption are linked tobirth defects, growth problems and an increased risk of heart disease．In particular there are fears thatheating the bottles, as parents would do when warming their baby's milk, causes the chemical to leak inpotentially dangerous quantities into the liquid contained within．

"If you heat those bottles, as is the case with baby bottles, we would expect the levels to beconsiderably higher．This would be of concern since infants may be particularly susceptible to BPA'shormone gland-disrupting (扰乱腺体极速分泌) potential．" said the senior author of the latest study, Karin B．Michels．

Most adults carry BPA in their bodies but expert opinion on the risks is divided．The European Food Safety Authority believes that people naturally convert the chemical into less harmful substances in the body．

Previous studies had found that BPA could leach (渗出 ) from polycarbonate bottles into theircontents, but this study is the first to show the size of the corresponding increase in urinary BPAconcentrations in humans．Harvard researcher Jenny Carwile said, "While previous studies have demonstrated that BPA is linkedto adverse health effects, this study fills in a missing piece of the puzzle--whether or not polycarbonateplastic bottles are an important contributor to the amount of BPA in the body．"

What do we know about bisphenol A (BPA．from the beginning of the passage? A．It is certain substance taken in by human beings every day．

B．It is a component contained in a number of plastic products．

C．It is an element that plays a decisive role in people's gender．

D．It is a kind of chemical that is universally regarded poisonous．

63、According to Paragraph 4, the "washout" phase was designed to______．A．make the research be accomplished with a result as satisfactory as possible B．obtain references for the possible health effects of stainless steel bottles

C．eliminate substances in bodies that may affect the result of the research D．limit the sort of beverages taken in by participants to the minimum level

64、What result can be expected if baby bottles containing polycarbonate are heated?

A．The liquid in the bottles would absorb limited amount of converted BPA．B．The infants should be seriously bothered by such disease as heart attack．C．Babies would consume more BPA if they drink the liquid in the bottles．D．The infants would undoubtedly refuse to drink the liquid in the bottles．

65、How do experts evaluate the hazard that can be caused by BPA? A．They think it is so common in bodies that it isn't hazardous material．B．Different groups hold different viewpoints on this issue．

C．They believe it will be transformed into other safe materials．D．They consider the amount of BPA in bodies decides its harmfulness．

66、What is the significance of the study talked about in this passage? A．It proved the assumption on BPA that studies previously．

B．It clarified the high risks that BPA may pose to people's health．C．It confirmed the principal source of the substance BPA．

D．It showed what's responsible for the rising level of BPA in humans. Part IV Translation.(30minutes)

大学英语四级考试模拟试卷及参考答案(第一套） Part II Reading Comprehension (35 minutes) Directions: There are 4 reading passages in this part. Each passage is foll owed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are fou r choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and ma rk the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center. Passage One Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage. There is a difference between science and technology. Science is a method o f answering theoretical questions; technology is a method of solving practical problems. Science has to do with discovering the facts and relationships betwee n observable phenomena in nature and with establishing theories that serve to o rganize these facts and relationships; technology has to do with tools, techniq ues, and procedures for implementing the finding of science. Another distinction between science and technology has to do with the progr ess in each. Progress in science excludes the human factor. Scientists, who seek to comp rehend the universe and know the truth within the highest degree of accuracy an d certainty, cannot pay attention to their own or other people's likes or disli kes or to popular ideas about the fitness of things. What scientists discover m ay shock or anger people-as did Darwin's theory of evolution. But even an unple asant truth is more than likely to be useful; besides, we have the choice of re fusing to believe it! But hardly so with technology; we do not have the choice

It was hoped that the monument would be completed by 1876 when America 12 its centennial. Fund raising and the 13 of the statue in France went slowly. It was 1885 when the 214 crates containing the statue reached New York. Americans were initially 14 for they had not raised the money to pay for the erection of the base. Fund raising by popular subscription was behind 15 . One fund raising method used was to have popular Americans write letters which were then sold in public. The base and statue, 16 272 feet tall, were completed in 1886. From a 17 standpoint, the statue is a marvel. The inner structure was designed by the French engineer, Alexandre Eiffel.
