Part 3 Reading Comprehension (Multiple Choice)

(每小题:2 分)

Directions: Read the following passages carefully and choose the best answer from the four choice s marked A, B, C and D.

Questions 1 to 5 are based on the same passage or dialog.

A child who has once been pleased with a tale likes, as a rule, to have it retold in identically the same words, but this should not lead parents to treat printed fairy stories as sacred (上帝的) texts. It is always much better to tell a story than read it out of a book, and, if a parent can produce what, in the actual circumstances of the time and the individual child, is an improvement on the printed text, so much the better.

A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic (施虐狂的) impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. As to fear, I think, we also need well-documented cases of children being dangerously terrified (恐惧) by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises from the child having heard the story once. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.

There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that giants, witches (女巫),

two-headed dragons, magic carpets (魔毯), etc., do not exist; and that, instead of indulging (沉溺) his fantasies in fairy tales, the child should be taught how to adapt to reality by studying history and mechanics. I find such people, I must confess, so unsympathetic and peculiar that I do not know how to argue with them. If their case were sound, the world should be full of mad men attempting to fly from New York to Philadelphia on a broomstick (女巫乘骑的扫帚柄) or covering a telephone with kisses in the belief that it was their enchanted (中魔法的) girl-friend.

No fairy story ever claimed to be a description of the external world and no sane (精神健全的) child has ever believed that it was.

1.The author considers that a fairy story is more effective when

it is _______.

A. repeated without variation

B. treated with respect

C. adapted by the parent

D. set in the present

2.Some people dislike fairy stories because they feel that they

________.

A. tempt people to be cruel to children

B. show the primitive cruelty in children

C. lend themselves to undesirable experiments with children

D. increase a tendency to have sadistic impulses in children

3.According to the passage great fear can be stimulated in a

child when the story is ________.

A. set in reality

B. heard for the first time

C. repeated too often

D. dramatically told

4.The author's mention of broomsticks and telephones is meant

to suggest that ________.

A. fairy stories are still being made up

B. there is confusion about different kinds of truth

C. people try to modernize old fairy stories

D. there is more concern for children's fears nowadays

5.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the

passage?

A. Fairy stories are anything but beneficial to the growth of

children.

B. Fairy stories teach children the way to adapt to the society.

C. No fairy story should be taken as the true description of the

reality.

D. No fairy story should be told to the children without

modification.

Questions 6 to 10 are based on the same passage or dialog.

In the primary school, a child is in a comparatively simple setting and most of the time forms a relationship with one familiar teacher. On entering secondary school, a new world opens up and frequently it is a much more difficult world. The pupil soon lea rns to be less free in the way he speaks to teachers and even to his fellow pupils. He begins to lose gradually the free and easy ways of the primary school, for he senses the need for a more cautious approach in the secondary school where there are older pupils. Secondary staff and pupils suffer from the pressures of academic work and seem to have less time to stop and talk. Teachers with specialist roles may see hundreds of children in a week, and a pupil may be able to form relationships with very few of the staff. He has to decide which adults are approachable; good schools will make clear to every young person from the first year what guidance and personal help is available—but whether the reality of life in the institution actually encourages requests for help is another matter.

Adults often forget what a confusing picture school can offer to a child. He sees a great deal of movement, a great number of people—often rather frightening-looking people—and realizes that an increasing number of choices and decisions have to be made. As he progresses through the school the confusion may become less but the choices and decisions required will increase. The school will rightly expect the pupil to take the first steps to obtain the help he needs, for this is the pattern of adult life for which he has to be prepared, but all the time the opportunities for personal and group advice must be presented in a way which makes them easy to understand and within easy reach of pupils.

6.According to the passage one of the problems for pupils

entering secondary schools is that ________.

A. they are taught by many different teachers

B. they do not attend lessons in every subject

C. the teachers are not so friendly and helpful

D. the teachers give most attention to a few pupils

7.In secondary schools every pupil having problems should

________.

A. know how to ask for help

B. go to ask any teacher he can find

C. discuss his problem in class

D. turn to his parents for help

8.It can be inferred from the passage that the author is mainly

concerned about ________.

A. academic standards

B. the role of specialist teachers

C. the training of the individual teachers

D. the personal development of pupils

9.Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A. All the secondary schools know the way to encourage

students' requests for help.

B. The secondary schools are responsible for offering

personal and group advice to new pupils.

C. Secondary school pupils enjoy greater freedom in

communicating with teachers and fellow pupils.

D. Secondary school pupils can easily get the help they need.

10.The most appropriate title for the passage is ________.

A. Primary School and Secondary School

B. Problems for New Secondary School Teachers

C. Problems for New Secondary School Pupils

D. Academic Work and Personal Relationship

Questions 11 to 15 are based on the same passage or dialog. For an increasing number of students at American universities, old is suddenly in. The reason is obvious: the graying of America means jobs. Coupled with the aging of the baby-boom (生育高峰) generation, a longer life span means that the nation's elderly population is bound to expand significantly over the next 50 years. By 2050, 25 percent of all Americans will be older than 65, up from 14 percent in 1995. The change poses serious questions for government and society, of course. But it also creates career opportunities in medicine and health professions, and in law and business as well. "In addition to the doctors, we're going to need more sociologists, biologists (生物学家), city planners and specialized lawyers," says Professor Edward Schneider of the University of Southern California's (USC) School of Gerontology (老年学).

Lawyers can specialize in "elder law", which covers everything from trusts and estates to nursing-home abuse and age discrimination (歧视). Businessmen see huge opportunities in the elder market because the baby boomers, 74 million strong, are likely to be the wealthiest group of retirees in human history. "Any student who combines an expert knowledge in gerontology with, say, an MBA or law degree will have a license to print money," one professor says.

Margarite Santos is a 21-year-old senior at USC. She began college as a biology major but found she was "really bored with bacteria". So she took a class in gerontology and discovered that she liked it. She says, "I did volunteer work in retirement homes and it was very satisfying."

11.The words "... old is suddenly in" (Para. 1) most probably

means "_______".

A. America has suddenly become a nation of old people

B. gerontology has suddenly become popular

C. more elderly professors are found on American campuses

D. American colleges have realized the need of enrolling older

students

12.With the aging of America, lawyers can benefit _______.

A. from the adoption of the "elder law"

B. from rendering special services to the elderly

C. by enriching their professional knowledge

D. by winning the trust of the elderly to promote their own

interests

13.Why can businessmen make money in the emerging elder

market?

A. Retirees are more generous in spending money.

B. They can employ more gerontologists.

C. The elderly possess an enormous purchasing power.

D. There are more elderly people working than before.

14.Who can make big money in the new century according to the

passage?

A. Retirees who are business-minded.

B. The volunteer workers in retirement homes.

C. College graduates with an MBA or law degree.

D. Professionals with a good knowledge of gerontology.

15.It can be seen from the passage that the expansion of

America's elderly population ________.

A. will provide good job opportunities in many areas

B. will impose an unbearable burden on society

C. may lead to nursing home abuse and age discrimination

D. will create new fields of study in universities

Questions 16 to 20 are based on the same passage or dialog. The decline in moral standards—which has long concerned social analysts—has at last captured the attention of average Americans. And Jean Bethke Elshtain, for one, is glad.

The fact that ordinary citizens are now starting to think seriously about the nation's moral climate, says this ethics (伦理学) professor at the University of Chicago, is reason to hope that new ideas will come forward to improve it.

But the challenge is not to be underestimated. Materialism and individualism in American society are the biggest obstacles. "The thought that 'I'm in it for me' has become deeply rooted in the national consciousness," Ms. Elshtain says.

Some of this can be attributed to the decay of traditional communities, in which neighbors looked out for one another, she says. With today's greater mobility and with so many couples working, those bonds have been weakened, replaced by a greater emphasis on self.

In a 1996 poll of Americans, loss of morality topped the list of the biggest problems facing the US. And Elshtain says the public is correct to sense that: Data show that Americans are struggling with problems unheard of in the 1950s, such as classroom violence and a high rate of births to unmarried mothers.

The desire for a higher moral standard is not a lament (挽歌) for some nonexistent "golden age," Elshtain says, nor is it a wishful (一厢情愿的) longing for a time that denied opportunities to women and minorities. Most people, in fact, favor a decrease in prejudice.

Moral decline will not be reversed until people find ways to counter the materialism in society, she says. "Slowly, you recognize that the things that matter are those that can't be bought."

16.Professor Elshtain is pleased to see that Americans

________.

A. have adapted to a new set of moral standards

B. are longing for the return of the good old days

C. have realized the importance of material things

D. are awakening to the lowering of their moral standards

17.The moral decline of American society is caused mainly by

________.

A. its growing wealth

B. the self-centeredness of individuals

C. underestimating the impact of social changes

D. the prejudice against women and minorities

18.Which of the following characterizes the traditional

communities?

A. Great mobility.

B. Emphasis on individual effort.

C. Concern for one's neighbors.

D. Ever-weakening social bonds.

19.In the 1950s, classroom violence ________.

A. was something unheard of

B. attracted a lot of public attention

C. was by no means a rare occurrence

D. began to appear in analysts' data

20.According to Elshtain, the current moral decline may be

reversed ___d_____.

A. if people can return to the "golden age"

B. when women and men enjoy equal rights

第一单元 The Doctrine of the Mean is the core ofConfucianism. The so-called “mean” by Confuciusdoesn’t mean “compromise” but a “moderate”and “just-right” way when understanding andhandling objective things. Confucius advocatedthat this thought should not only be treated as away to understand and deal with things but alsobe integrated into one’s daily conduct to makeit a virtue through self-cultivation and training. The Doctrine of the Mean is not only the core ofConfucianism but also an important componentof traditional Chinese culture. From the time itcame into being to the present, it has played aninvaluable role in the construction of nationalspirit, the transmission of national wisdom, and the development of national culture. 中庸思想是儒家思想的重要内容。孔子所谓的“中”不是指“折中”,而是指在认识和处理客观事物时的一种“适度”和“恰如其分”的方法。孔子主张不仅要把这种思想作为一种认识和处理事物的方法来看待,而且还通过自身修养和锻炼,把它融入自己的日常行为当中,使之成为一种美德。中庸思想是儒家思想的

英语口语总结(新视野大学英语4第二版)

Unit1 Some artists seeks for fame , but t hey don’t realized that chasing fame often leads to self destruction. However, it’s difficult for us to resist the temptation that fame brings us. Some gain fame quickly by developing a unique style with the help of agents. However, with the pressure to keep audience’s lasting enthusiasm, they lost their freedom to express themselves freely. And the example of Oscar Wilde exactly proved the view. There is a point that the greatest winners are those who initially failed in the conquest of fame, because they won freedom instead. With the example of Thomas Wolfe and Pestalozzi , we know that failure is the beginning of success. In a word, try to be happy in your lifetime instead of trying hard to achieve success. Unit2 Chaplin is a great comedian not only for his motherland but also for the world. The character of “the tramp”made him famous, though the Tramp was considered a little crude at first. and his clothes gave him an appearance more like an Italian waiter than anything else. He resisted making a talking movie until 1936 when he made up a nonsense language which sounded like no known nationality. Chaplin achieved great success because he has the talent to explore and use his physical senses to invent his art. However, the collision between the need to be loved and the fear of being betrayed resulted in disaster in his emotional life which was shown in his movies. Eventually, life gave Chaplin the stable happiness, that is, his marriage with Oona O’Neil. Unit5 While loneliness is very common in the U.S., few people want to admit it because it is considered as a sort of social disease. It is seen as admirable for American heroes to go alone into the wild areas and for poets and philosophers to seek out solitude. Some poets and philosophers, like William, Milton and Thoreau, enjoy inspiration from solitude. When an individual is solitary out of choice, the experience is less enjoyable. It is our basic need to talk to someone not only about the big things but also about the little daily things. As a consequence, lonely people will talk about the little things to themselves, the dog and, most embarrassingly , to total strangers. Therefore, it’s important for ordinary people to stay rational, make themselves comfortable and find some grace and pleasure in their home. Unit6 Bribery in various forms is on the increase in many countries. Bribery indeed have become a fact of commercial life. We divide these payments into three broad categories. The first category consists of substantial payments made for political purposes or to secure major contracts. The second category covers payments made to obtain quicker official approval of some projects. The third category involves payments made into countries where it is traditional to pay people to help with the passage of a business deal. There are some ways to prohibit bribery. ICC favors a code of conduct that would ban the giving and seeking of bribes. Unfortunately, opinions differ among the members of ICC concerning how to enforce the code. Anyway, today’s businessman will frequently meet situations where it is difficult to square his business interests with his moral conscience. Unit10 If a business does not adapt to changes in the business environment, then it will fail. Recently it has been argued that smart but inflexible employees don’t necessarily have the abilities to adapt to this ever-changing environment. It would appear that flexibility and emotional intelligence rather than IQ is a more accurate measure of intelligence. It is also a more accurate predictor of

新视野大学英语2课文翻译

新视野大学英语2课文翻译(Unit1-Unit7) Unit 1 Section A 时间观念强的美国人 Para. 1 美国人认为没有人能停止不前。如果你不求进取,你就会落伍。这种态度造就了一个投身于研究、实验和探索的民族。时间是美国人注意节约的两个要素之一,另一个是劳力。 Para. 2 人们一直说:“只有时间才能支配我们。”人们似乎是把时间当作一个差不多是实实在在的东西来对待的。我们安排时间、节约时间、浪费时间、挤抢时间、消磨时间、缩减时间、对时间的利用作出解释;我们还要因付出时间而收取费用。时间是一种宝贵的资源,许多人都深感人生的短暂。时光一去不复返。我们应当让每一分钟都过得有意义。 Para. 3 外国人对美国的第一印象很可能是:每个人都匆匆忙忙——常常处于压力之下。城里人看上去总是在匆匆地赶往他们要去的地方,在商店里他们焦躁不安地指望店员能马上来为他们服务,或者为了赶快买完东西,用肘来推搡他人。白天吃饭时人们也都匆匆忙忙,这部分地反映出这个国家的生活节奏。工作时间被认为是宝贵的。Para. 3b 在公共用餐场所,人们都等着别人吃完后用餐,以便按时赶回去工作。你还会发现司机开车很鲁莽,人们推搡着在你身边过去。你会怀念微笑、简短的交谈以及与陌生人的随意闲聊。不要觉得这是针对你个人的,这是因为人们非常珍惜时间,而且也不喜欢他人“浪费”时间到不恰当的地步。 Para. 4 许多刚到美国的人会怀念诸如商务拜访等场合开始时的寒暄。他们也会怀念那种一边喝茶或咖啡一边进行的礼节性交流,这也许是他们自己国家的一种习俗。他们也许还会怀念在饭店或咖啡馆里谈生意时的那种轻松悠闲的交谈。一般说来,美国人是不会在如此轻松的环境里通过长时间的闲聊来评价他们的客人的,更不用说会在增进相互间信任的过程中带他们出去吃饭,或带他们去打高尔夫球。既然我们通常是通过工作而不是社交来评估和了解他人,我们就开门见山地谈正事。因此,时间老是在我们心中的耳朵里滴滴答答地响着。 Para. 5 因此,我们千方百计地节约时间。我们发明了一系列节省劳力的装置;我们通过发传真、打电话或发电子邮件与他人迅速地进行交流,而不是通过直接接触。虽然面对面接触令人愉快,但却要花更多的时间, 尤其是在马路上交通拥挤的时候。因此,我们把大多数个人拜访安排在下班以后的时间里或周末的社交聚会上。 Para. 6 就我们而言,电子交流的缺乏人情味与我们手头上事情的重要性之间很少有或完全没有关系。在有些国家, 如果没有目光接触,就做不成大生意,这需要面对面的交谈。在美国,最后协议通常也需要本人签字。然而现在人们越来越多地在电视屏幕上见面,开远程会议不仅能解决本国的问题,而且还能通过卫星解决国际问题。
