  • 第5题:


    A.customary of the educated to discard ambition in words
    B.too late to check ambition once it has been let out
    C.dishonest to deny ambition after the fulfillment of the goal
    D.impractical for the educated to enjoy benefits from ambition

    答案:C
    解析:
    最后一句There is heavy note of hypocrisy in this,a case of closing the barn door after the horses have escaped- with the educated themselves riding on them.(其中有着浓厚的虚伪色彩,恰如马跑后再关上马厩的门那样,而受过良好教育的人自己正骑在那些马背上。)通过比喻指责这些人是虚伪的,他们是抱负的受益者,但又虚伪地否认拥有抱负的重要性,故C项“达成目标后再否认抱负是不诚实的”表述正确。B项“在抱负实现后再放弃它就太晚了”是对原句比喻义的错误理解,与原句比喻义强调的点不一致。A项“受过教育者习惯于口头上摒弃抱负”和D项“受过教育者享受抱负带来的好处是不现实的”,原文没有提及。故本题选C。参考译文:个人的抱负如果能被正确看待的话,那么它的回报——财富、声誉、对命运的掌握——则应该被认为值得为之付出牺牲。如果抱负在传统上具有生命力,那么它就应该受到广泛的推崇,尤其应该受到那些被他人羡慕者的高度重视,当然那些受过良好教育的人也应包括在内。然而,恰恰是那些受过良好教育的人声称他们已经放弃了抱负,多么不可思议。奇怪的是他们已经从抱负中获益颇多了——如果不是他们自己的抱负,那么就是他们父母和祖父母的抱负。其中有着浓厚的虚伪色彩,恰如马跑后再关上马厩的门那样,而受过良好教育的人自己正骑在那些马背上。

    It was odd that you _______ for Margie’s address. I just got a letter from her—the first one since her family moved on August 1, 1983.
    A

    should have asked

    B

    would have asked

    C

    shall ask

    D

    might ask


    正确答案: A
    解析:
    真奇怪,你当时怎么没问玛吉的地址呢,我最近才收到她的来信,这是1983年8月1号她搬家后的第一次来信。should have done表示本应该做而没有做的事情,含有责怪的意思。would have done原本可以做某事。

    A

    greater efforts should be made to improve people’s living standards

    B

    70 percent of the people there have been, employed for two years

    C

    50 percent of the population no longer relies on welfare

    D

    the living standards of most people are going down


    正确答案: C
    解析:
    细节推断题。B项“70%的人就业已达2年”。第二段称70%的脱离福利照顾的人在过去两年里参加了工作,但并没说该郡70%的人参加工作已达2年,故B项有误。C项“50%的人口不再依赖福利政策”,文而章说雅典郡的贫困率在30%以上,为全国贫困率的2倍,显然C项错误。D项“大多数人的生活水平在下降”也与文章不符。A项“为提高人民生活水准尚须做出巨大努力”与第三段“作为穷人的代言人,这表明,尚须做更多的努力”属同义转述。因此,A项为答案。

    Practice 8  You should spend about 40 minutes on this task.  Write about the following topic:  Some people think people have benefited from modern communications technology, but other people think some people have not benefited at all. To what extent do you agree or disagree?  You should write at least 250 words.

    正确答案: 【参考范文】
    Daily communication tools make the distance between people shrink. There are various ways such as mobile phones, Facebook, Twitter and E-mail which changes our life from daily life to work style. As for the dramatic and rapid changes, people in all walks of life hold different opinions. Personally, it is a must to be tolerant of the new technological innovations.
    It is undeniable that all these high-tech tools can alienate the virtual interpersonal relationship that exists between people. If we want to tell somebody something, we do not have to really see him, and we can send a short message, a E-mail, or leave one on Facebook. Regardless of the convenience, face-to-face conversations are still one of the best ways to understand each other.
    High technologies provide us with more choices which can yield higher efficiency, which can be illustrated from three perspectives. Firstly, it is a useful time-saver for people greatly enjoy social life. Social network enable them to spare the trouble of heavy traffic in rush hours when they need to have contact with friends. Secondly, it is also a money-saver. Compared with the high cost of an official visit to someone or some place, chatting on-site or through telephone is much cheaper. If each company has an E-conference system, information sharing should never be a daydream in the era of information. Lastly, and most importantly, with the great help of new inventions, people may communicate with others without being limited to geographical difference. Namely, no matter where one stays, he or she can get in touch with people on the Internet at any time.
    In summary, modem technologies are excellent assistants of our life and work, so it is wise to accept them and make full use of them properly.

    ◆Topic 4: A Year of Economic Recovery  Questions for Reference:  1. Many economists say that the year 2009 was a year of economic recovery for China. What was the goal of the annual GDP growth rate set by the Chinese Government?  2. This recovery was due to the forcefulness of the Chinese government’s policies. The best-known and most effective measure is the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus plan. The major investment was put in infrastructure construction. Could you explain what infrastructure means? Name and describe one or two instances of infrastructure construction in 2009.  3. The economic recovery in 2009 has also improved the life of ordinary Chinese people. Say something about how you and your family, or your relatives or friends, have benefited from this economic recovery?

    正确答案: 【参考答案】
    My name is…My registration number is…My topic is: A Year of Economic Recovery.
    Many economists say that the year 2009 was a year of economic recovery for China. Judging from the relevant economic data, we can see clear signals that China’s economic recovery is accelerating and broadening and some of the key indicators beat market expectations successfully, which has helped China win applause from home and abroad. Those people who were once showing much worry and concern over China’s economic development are now changing their mind and feel confident again.
    It is not difficult to figure out how great efforts the government has made to ease the situation and maintain social stability over the past year. Many people insist that this recovery was due to the forcefulness of the Chinese government’s policies. The best-known and most effective measure is the 4-trillion-yuan stimulus plan. It was adopted right after the outbreak of the financial crisis and was soon put into operation. The government also adopted many other pro-growth economic policies such as expanding the “home appliances to the countryside” program. The quick implementation of the stimulus package successfully reversed the downward trend of the economy and the quarterly GDP growth picked up remarkably. A rainbow of recovery shows up after the financial storm. Many people believe that so far, this is the world’s most effective economic stimulus program. And with the effective implementation of all these policies and measures, we can find everywhere that the people’s lives have been gradually improved.
    However, as one economist from the Asian Development Bank said, the Chinese government should get ready to deal with more difficult tasks. It is through the economic stimulus plan that Chinese have managed to overcome the crisis in such a short period of time. However, the more severe challenges could be waiting for them. Thus more efforts should be made to promote the Chinese economy’s sustained growth.

    问答题
    Practice 4  If ambition is to be well regarded, the rewards of ambition—wealth, distinction, control over one’s destiny—must be deemed worthy of the sacrifices made on ambition’s behalf. If the tradition of ambition is to have vitality, it must be widely shared, and it especially must be highly regarded by people who are themselves admired, the educated not least among them. In an odd way, however, it is the educated who have claimed to have given up on ambition as an ideal. What is odd is that they have perhaps most benefited from ambition, if not always their own then that of their parents and grandparents.

    正确答案:
    【参考译文】
    雄心壮志若能被正确看待,那么,它所带来的回报——财富、荣誉、对命运的主宰——一定会被认为是值得为之做出牺牲的。雄心壮志的传统若是激发活力,那么,人们就应当广泛地拥有这种传统,尤其是那些自身受人羡慕之士更应给予其高度重视。当然,受过良好教育的人也同样包括在内。然而,正是那些受过良好教育的人却奇怪地声称,他们已经放弃把雄心壮志当作理想。奇怪是,他们已从雄心壮志中获益最多——如果不总是自己的雄心壮志,就是他们父母的和祖父母的。
