  • 第3题:

    We experience a burst of pleasure when we share our thoughts,and this drives us to communlcate.It is a useful feature of our brain,because it ensures that knowledge,experience and ideas do not get buried with the person who first had them,and that as a society we benefit from the products of many minds.Of course,in order for that to happen,merely sharing is not enough.We need to cause a reaction.Each time we share our opinions and knowledge,it is with the intention of having an impact on others.Here's the problem,though:we approach this task from inside our own heads.When attempting to create impact,we reflect on what is persuasive to us,our state of mind.our desires and our goals.But if we want to affect the behaviours and beliefs of the person in front of us,we need to understand what goes on inside their head.


    答案:
    解析:
    我们在分享自己的想法时会感到一阵愉悦.正是这种感觉驱使我们进行交流。我们大脑的这个特点非常有用.因为它保证了知识、经验和想法不会随着它们最初的拥有者而遭到埋没;我们作为一个社会,则能从许多聪明人的成果中受益。当然,要使这种情况发生,单纯的分享是不够的。我们需要引起一个反应。我们每次分享自己的意见和知识时,正是抱着对他人施加影响的目的。但这正是问题所在:我们从自己的内心出发处理这件事情。当我们试图造成影响时,我们回想对我们具有说服力的东西.我们的精神状态,我们的渴望以及我们的目标。但我们如果想影响我们面前这个人的行为和想法,却需要理解他们的脑子里在想什么。

    Passage 6Question 8-12  ● Read this text which is about issues of health and safety in a factory.  ● Choose the best sentence from the list A-G to fill each of the blanks.  ● For each blank (8-12) mark one letter (A–G) on your Answer Sheet.  ● Do not mark any letter twice.  ● One answer has been given as an example.MAKE BIETANM A MOST FAVORED NATION  For 25 years, Vietnam has been an open sore on the U.S. body politic: It not only ate up thousands of American lives and billions of US dollars, but also often reminded the Americans of bitter failure (0)______. Only in the past year has Washington begun rebuilding links by allowing aid from international organizations and lifting the trade embargo.  But that's not enough (8)______.. The Key step is to grant most-favored-nation status to Vietnam, letting Vietnamese goods enter the U.S. at favorable tariff rates (9)______.. Why MFN for Vietnam? (10)______.. Strained trade relations between the two countries make it less likely that American companies will get their share of these contracts. (11)______.. In both the North and South, Americans are highly regarded, and American companies are welcomed as a counter-balance to Japanese, Chinese, and European investment.  Granting MFN to Vietnam is sure to be controversial (12)______.. But it should be taken seriously.  A. The U.S. government may not like a heated dispute on this neglectable issue.  B. The U.S. response to defeat was to block international did and forbid American companies to do business there.  C. Moreover, despite the conflicts of the past, Vietnam could be a tremendous ally for the U.S.  D. It’s time now to move toward establishing normal ties with Vietnam whose economy is growing 8% a year.  E. To start with,Vietnam will sign contracts involving billions on telecommunications,power plants,and airliners.  F. Given the trouble of Clinton Administration’s foreign policy,the issue will be held in suspension.  G. That would give Vietnam equal footing with most other countries,including Russia and—at least for now—China.

    正确答案: 8.C  本空前一句话说“但是,这还不够”。此句中的应该承接前一句话,选项C 中的开头moreover正好相符,意思是“尽管过去有冲突,对于美国来说越南可以成为一大伙伴”。这是可以当做是美国给予越南最惠国待遇的一个理由。由此可见,正确答案是C。
    9.D  空格前一句“关键的一步是给予越南最惠国的地位,让越南的产品以最优惠的税率进入美国”。这里的tariff rate意为“税率”。空格后一句“为什么要给予越南最惠国待遇”。由此可以推断空格处所填的内容应该是美国与越南建立的关系。D项“现在是时候向前行,与每年经济增长率为8%的越南建立正常的关系”符合题意。
    10.E  此空格后一句话的意思是“两国紧张的贸易关系使得美国公司不可能得到这些合同中属于他们的份额”。这里的these contracts应该指代空格里的内容,由此可以推断空格处会出现与合同有关的内容,只有E项符合。
    11.G  在剩余的选项A、G、F中,A、F项中都出现the issue这与空格前面的内容不符,故可以给予排除。G项中的that指代前文中的内容,意思是“这样会使得越南与俄罗斯,至少现在是中国的大多数的国家处于平等的地位”。
    12.F  空格前一句的意思是“给予越南特惠国待遇肯定会引起争议的”。F项句中的the issue指代前一句的Granting MFN to Vietnam,意思是“假如克林顿政府外交政策上遇到麻烦,这个问题将会暂时搁置起来”;全句内容与后一句正好是转折关系,由But联接故F为最佳答案。

  • 第11题:

    In the 1960s, many young Americans were dissatisfied with American society. They wanted to end the Vietnam War and to make all of the people in the U.S. equal. Some of them decided to "drop out" of American society and form their own societies . They formed utopian communities , which they called "communes," where they could follow their philosophy of "do your own thing." A group of artists founded a commune in southern Colorado called "Drop City." Following the ideas of philosopher and architect Buckminster Fuller they built domeshaped houses from pieces of old cars. Other groups, such as author Ken Kesey's Merry Pranksters, the followers fo San Francisco poet Steve Gakin, and a group that called itself the Hog Farm, lived in old school huses and traveled around the United States. The Hog Farm become famous when they helped organize the Woodstock Rock Festival in 1969. Steve Gaskin's followers tried to settle down on a farm in Tennessee, but they had to leave when some members of the gruop were arrested for growing marijuana.
    Not all communes believed in the philosophy of "do you own thing," however . Twin Oaks , a commune founded in Virgiania in the late 1960s, was based on the ideas of psychologist B.F.Skinner. The people who lived at Twin Oaks were carefully controlled by Skinner's "conditioning" techniques to do things that were good for the community. In 1972, Italian architect Paolo Soleri began to build Arcosanti, a utopian city Arizsona where 2500 people will live closely together in one large building called an "archology" Soleri believes that people must live closely together so that they will all become one.
    Why did some young Americans decide to "drop out" of scoiety during the 1960s?

    a.They were not satisfied with American society.
    b.They wanted to grow marijuana.
    c.They wanted to go to the Vietnam War.
    d.They did not want all people to be equal.
