Practice 1  Born in 1451, the son of an Italian weaver, Christopher Columbus took to the sea at an early age, making up for his lack of formal education by teaching himself geography, navigation, and Latin. By the 1480s Columbus—a tall, red-haired, long-faced man with a ruddy complexion, oval eyes, and a prominent nose—was an experienced seaman. Dazzled by the prospect of Asian riches, he hatched a scheme to reach the Indies (India, China, the East Indies, or Japan) by sailing west. After the courts of Portugal, England, and France showed little interest in his plan, Columbus turned to Spain for backing. He won the support of Ferdinand and Isabella, the Spanish monarchs, and himself raised much of the money needed to finance the voyage. The legend that the queen had to hock the crown jewels is as spurious as the fable that Columbus set out to prove the earth was round.  Columbus chartered one seventy-five-foot ship, the Santa María, and the Spanish city of Palos supplied two smaller caravels, the Pinta and Nina. From Palos this little squadron, with eighty-seven officers and men, set sail westward for what Columbus thought was Asia. The first leg of the journey went well, thanks to a strong trade wind. But then the breeze lagged, the days passed, and the crew began to grumble about their captain’s farfetched plan. To rally flagging morale, he reminded the crew of the dazzling riches awaiting them. Yet skepticism remained rife, and he finally promised that the expedition would turn back if land were not sighted in three days.  Early on October 12, 1492, after thirty-three days at sea, a lookout on the Santa María yelled “Tierra! Tierra! [Land! Land!]” It was an island in the Bahamas that Columbus named San Salvador (Blessed Savior). According to Columbus’s own reckoning he was near the Indies, so he called the island people los Indios. He described the Indians as naked people, “very well made, of very handsome bodies and very good faces.” The Arawak Indians paddled out in dugout logs, which they called canoes, and offered gifts to the strangers. Their warm generosity and docile temperament led Columbus to write in his journal that “they invite you to share anything that they possess, and show as much love as if their hearts went with it.” Yet he added that “with fifty men they could all be subjugated and compelled to do anything one wishes.”

1451年,克里斯托夫·哥伦布出生在一个意大利织工家庭。他从小就对航海着迷,自学了地理学、航海术和拉丁语,以此弥补没受过正规教育的缺憾。到了15世纪80年代,哥伦布已经是一位经验丰富的水手了,他身材高大,红头发,瘦长脸,面色红润,圆眼睛,高鼻梁。图片上美轮美奂的亚洲风光让哥伦布为之神往,于是他策划向西航行到印度群岛(包括印度、中国、东印度群岛或日本)。葡萄牙、英格兰和法国朝廷对此没有兴趣,于是哥伦布便转向西班牙求助,得到了国王斐迪南德和王后伊莎贝拉的支持。他自己还筹措了这次航海的很大一部分资金。传说王后抵押了自己王冠上的珠宝来资助他,纯属无稽之谈,这就和说哥伦布航海是为了证明地球是圆的一样荒谬。
哥伦布自己租了一条75英尺长的船,船名叫“圣玛利亚”号,西班牙城市帕洛斯出了两条稍小的三桅帆船“平塔“号和”尼娜“号。这支75人的队伍就从帕洛斯起航了,朝着哥伦布心目中的亚洲向西进发。起初贸易风强劲,船队顺风顺水,十分顺利。但接着风就不那么帮忙了,日子一天天过去,水手们开始抱怨船长的计划异想天开。为了鼓舞士气,哥伦布向大家描绘了一番金银财宝任取任拿的灿烂前景。尽管如此,大家仍心存疑虑。最后,他承诺,如果三天后还见不到陆地,就打道回府。
1492年10月12日一大早,在海上整整航行了33天之后,“圣玛利亚”号上的嘹望员突然放声大喊:“啊!陆地!”那是巴哈马群岛的一座岛屿,哥伦布把它命名为圣萨尔瓦多(意为“神圣的救世主”)。哥伦布自己估算,他差不多到了东印度群岛,所以管那儿的人叫印第安人。在他的描述中,印第安人浑身赤裸,“身体壮实,身材健美,长相标致”。阿拉瓦克印第安人划着挖空树干做成的独木舟,出来迎接,给这群陌生人献礼。他们慷慨热情,性情温顺,哥伦布在《航海日记》中写道,“他们倾其所有,邀君共享,一腔热忱,绝无保留。”他还写道,“只需50人便足以降伏他们,任我差遣。”

    PARENTSON 解析:此题考查的是派生类的构造。主函数开始在定义SON类的对象son时,会先执行PARENT类的构造函数再执行SON类的构造函数,输出 “PAKENTSON”;接下来的语句定义PARENT和让指针p指向son对象,都并未创建任何对象,所以不会调用构造函数。故最终的输出结果是:PARENTSON。

    误导性广告是现代社会的一大疾病。一支烟象征着独立,一条名牌牛仔裤或一双名牌旅游运动鞋给人以身份。//
    我们所有人在其一生中无时不受广告的影响。少年,尤其是少女,特别容易受到广告的侵袭,因为他们是消费市场上无经验的新客户。//
    广告商充分意识到他们的作用,毫不犹豫地利用青年人的不安全感和焦躁心理,假装可以为他们排忧解难。//
    广告试图让我们相信:产品可以使我们充实,可以满足我们人类最深层次的需要,一个人的价值取决于所用产品的价值。没有哪一个政治家或教育家具有广告那么强的说服力。
    【录音原文】
    Misleading advertising is a disease with our modern society. A cigarette provides a symbol of independence. A pair of designer jeans or sneakers conveys status. //
    Advertising affects all of us throughout our lives. Young people, especially young girls, are particularly vulnerable, because they are new and inexperienced consumers. //
    Advertisers are fully aware of their role and do not hesitate to take advantage of the insecurities and anxieties of adolescents, in the guise of offering solutions to their problems. //
    Advertising tries to convince us that products can fulfill us and meet our deepest human needs and that the value of a person depends upon the products used. No politician or educator is more persuasive than advertising.

    Practice 1 :旅游观光

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    对大多数人来说,只要不是自己的常住区,几乎任何一个地方都可以成为旅游地。伦敦对伦敦人来说也许不是旅游胜地,而对纽约人来说却不乏魅力。许多大城市有一种独特的氛围和历史渊源,如北京的长城和故宫,旧金山的有轨电车,构成了这两座城市与众不同的氛围。∥
    世界各地著名的小城镇和乡村地区也有这类游客趋之若骛的景点,如莎士比亚的诞生地斯特福特小村镇便是典范。当然,自然风光始终吸引着游客,例如尼亚加拉大瀑布的观光客达到数百万之众,大瀑布的“蜜月巢”之美誉举世闻名。
    【录音原文】
    For most people, almost any place can become a tourist destination as long as it is different from the place where the traveler usually lives. London may not be a tourist attraction to a Londoner, but for a New Yorker it may have many charms. Many big cities offer a unique atmosphere and history. The Great Wall and the Palace Museum of Beijing, and the cable cars of San Francisco are part of the unusual atmosphere of those cities.∥
    Smaller and yet well-known towns and rural areas throughout the world may also have attractions of this kind that tourists visit. An excellent example is the small village town of Stratford, Shakespeare’s birthplace. Of course, natural scenery has always been an attraction for tourists. Millions of people have visited Niagara Falls, for example. Its reputation as a place for a honeymoon resort is world-famous.

    Practice 1  Some people call him “Guidone”—big Guido. Large in both physical stature and reputation, Guido Rossi, who took over as Telecom Italia's chairman on September 15th following the surprise resignation of Marco Tronchetti Provera, has stood out from the Italian business crowd for more than three decades. Mr. Rossi, who attended Harvard law school in the 1950s and wrote a book on American bankruptcy law, made his name as a corporate lawyer keen on market rules and their enforcement. He has since worked in both private and public sectors, including stints in the Italian Senate and as one of the European Commission's group of company-law experts. As well as running a busy legal practice, he also has a reputation as a corporate troubleshooter and all-round Mr Fix-It, and is often called upon to clean up organisations in crisis.  His role at Telecom Italia marks a return to the company he headed for ten months in 1997, during its politically tricky and legally complex privatisation. Before that, Mr Rossi had been sent in to sort out Ferruzzi-Montedison, an agri-business and chemicals group, which had collapsed after magistrates uncovered tangentopoli (“bribesville”).
