TranslatethefollowingpassagefromEnglishintoChinese

Thedebateaboutgovernment’ssuccessesandfailuresdemonstratesagainthatdrawingtheboundarybetweenmarketandgovernmentisanenduringproblem.Thetoolsofeconomicsareindispensabletohelpsocietiesfindthegoldenmeanbetweenlaissez-fairemarketmechanismsanddemocraticrulesoftheroad.Thegoodmixedeconomyis,perforce,thelimitedmixedeconomy.Butthosewhowouldreducegovernmenttotheconstableplusafewlighthousesarelivinginadreamworld.Anefficientandhumanesocietyrequiresbothhalvesofthemixedsystem—marketandgovernment.Operatingamodemeconomywithoutbothisliketryingtoclapwithonehand.

【答案】关于政府的成功与失败的讨论再次表明,划清市场与政府之间的界限是一个长期存在的问题。经济学工具是帮助社会找到自由放任的市场机制和民主的道路规则之间中庸之道不可缺少的。良好的混合经济必然是有限的混合经济。但是那些把政府降为警察和几座灯塔的人正生活在一个梦幻世界里。一个高效的、人道的社会需要混合系统的两部分—市场和政府。在没有两者的情况下经营现代经济,就像试图用一只手鼓掌一样。

2.翻译题

随着中世纪结构的崩溃和现代生产方式的兴起,劳动的意义和作用发生了根本性的变化,这在新教国家表现的尤为突出。因为人对刚刚获得的自由感到不知所措,心里老是想着如何以一种狂热的活动来消除自己的疑虑和恐惧。这种活动无论成功或是失败都将决定他的灵魂能否获救,表明他是灵魂得救者。劳动本身不再能给人带来满足感和快乐,而是变成了一种责任和强迫性的活动。劳动致富的可能性越大,劳动就越会成为纯粹获得财富和成功的一种手段。用麦克斯•韦伯的话来说,在“内心深处追名逐利的苦行主义”的体系中,劳动变成了主要的因素,成了解决人的孤单和封闭感的一种办法。

PutthefollowingpassageintoEnglish.

3.单选题

问题1选项

A.runsfor

B.runsagainst

C.runsover

D.runsinto

【答案】B

【解析】考查动词辨析。violate“违反;侵犯,妨碍”,A选项runfor“竞选;匆匆去取;赶紧去请”;B选项“runagainst撞上;偶遇;违反”;C选项“runover辗过;匆匆看;复查”;D选项“runinto遭遇,陷入;撞到;偶然遇见”。句意:他不做任何违背集体利益的事。根据句中“theinterestsofthecollective集体的利益”可知violate在这里的意思为“违反”,因此B选项正确。

4.单选题

Thelaughterathisjokesisneverforced,butalways(

).

问题1选项

A.homogeneous

B.simultaneous

C.spontaneous

D.instantaneous

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词辨析。homogeneous意为“同性质的,同类的”;simultaneous意为“同时发生的,同时存在的”;spontaneous意为“自发的”;instantaneous意为“瞬间的”。

句意:他讲笑话时人们从来不是被迫笑的,而是自发的笑。

5.单选题

Ihavenoideaoffashion,somychoiceofclothesseemsquitearbitrary.

问题1选项

A.assertive

B.decisive

C.optional

D.tasteful

【答案】C

【解析】考查形容词词义辨析。A选项assertive“肯定的”;B选项decisive“决定性的”;C选项optional“随意的”;D选项tasteful“有品位的”。句意:我对时尚一窍不通,所以我对衣服的选择似乎很随意。划线部分arbitrary是随意的意思。因此C选项正确。

Directions:Readthefollowingpassage,andthentranslatetheunderlinedpartsnumberedfrom(1)to(4),fromEnglishintoChinese.PleasewriteyouranswerontheANSWERSHEET.

【答案】(1)互联网应用中发展最快的一个领域采用互联网技术开发企业网络。全世界许多政府部门和商业机构正加快步伐,创建基于互联网技术的企业网络,允许它们推销秘密的“内联网”。

(2)“内联网”是一个时髦术语,指用发展迅速、相对廉价的互联网技术开发企业信息和通讯系统。内联网一般包含两种重要的软件:浏览器和服务器。前者允许用户浏览网络以获取有用信息,后者储存并整理信息。

(3)例如,摩根斯坦利金融公司和特纳广播公司成功地完成了各自的内联网,这些内联网使两家公司的雇员共享信息,共同承担项目并创建遍及各大洲的、效果明显的工作组。

(4)互联网必然会改变我们的社区意识并消除以往跟地理疆界联系在一起的种种限制。互联网和内联网给个人和企业带来机遇和挑战,这些网络奖赏有能力和远见的人利用自己的权力,在种种局限发生时,能找到克服局限性的方案。

D.theyareshutfromtheirfamilies

【答案】第1题:B

第2题:D

第3题:D

第4题:C

【解析】1.主旨大意题。文章开头说到ourgreatestproblemswillbevoluntaryself-degradation,orwillingdehumanization(我们最大的问题将是自愿的自我退化,或自愿的非人性化),接下来介绍了医疗技术的发展产生的一些非人性化后果,可知文章的主题是医疗技术造成的非人性化。因此B选项“医疗技术可能造成的非人性化后果”最符合文章主旨。A选项“限制自由的问题”,文章提到这些危险源于过度的自由,可知不是限制自由的问题,所以A错误。C选项“生物医学技术的发展”只说了技术发展的一方面,没有说它带来的后果,所以C错误。D选项“延长人类生命的意义”在文中没有提及,所以D错误。

2.客观细节题。由题干可以定位到文章第一段第三句Itfailstorecognizethegreatdangersweshallfaceintheusesofbiomedicaltechnology(它没有意识到我们在使用生物医学技术时将面临的巨大危险),说明生物医学技术可能在使用中产生危险的后果。因此D选项“可能在其应用中造成严重的负面后果”正确。A选项“导致了对自由的过度使用”,由thatstemfromanexcessoffreedom(这些危险源于过度的自由)可知是过度的自由导致了生物医学技术带来危害,所以A错误。B选项“对人类几乎没有好处”,文章说到它们成功地拯救了一些个体,可知还是有一定好处的,所以B错误。C选项“不适用于医疗”,文中介绍了生物医学技术在医疗上的应用,所以C错误。

3.推理判断题。由A选项关键词“severepatient”可以定位到第二段第二句Improvedmethodsofresuscitationeffortstosavetheseverelyillandinjured…Theysucceedinrescuingindividuals(改进的复苏方法努力挽救重症病人和重伤患者……它们成功地拯救了一些个体),说明改进的医疗技术可以挽救一些重症病人,所以A选项“改进的医疗技术可以挽救极其严重的病人”表述正确。由B选项关键词“normalhumanlife”可以定位到文章第二段第四句Theysucceedinrescuingindividualsbutthoseindividualsmayhaveseverebraindamageandbecapableofonlyaless-than-human,vegetatingexistence.(它们成功地拯救了一些个体,但这些个体可能有严重的脑损伤,只能过一种不像人类那样的植物人生活。),说明有些病人虽然能得救,但不能过上正常人的生活,所以B选项“有些病人虽然得救了,但不能再过正常人的生活了”表述正确。由C选项关键词“Families”可以定位到第二段第六句Familiesareforcedtosufferseeingtheirbelovedonessoreduced(家人被迫忍受他们心爱的人如此堕落的痛苦),说明病人家属们看到病人过着植物人的生活会感到很痛苦,所以C选项“当一些病人维持着植物人的生活时,他们的家人常常会感到痛苦。”表述正确。D选项“对病人来说,活下来总是比死亡好”在第二段中没有提及,所以本题选D选项。

4.语义推测题。由题干关键词“theyareshuntedaside”可以定位到文章第四段第四句Notyetreadyfortheworldofthedead,notdeemedfitfortheworldoftheliving,theyareshuntedaside.(还没有准备好进入死人的世界,也没有被认为适合活人的世界,他们就被分流到一边。),前一句说到Asagroup,theelderlyarethemostalienatedmembersofoursociety.(老年人是我们社会中最受冷落的群体。),说明老年人很不被重视。因此C选项“他们极度不受重视”正确。A选项“他们都被送到了老人之家”,由文章可知有些老人还被送到了慢性病医院、养老院等地,所以A错误。B选项“他们完全与外部世界隔离”,D选项“他们被家人拒之门外”在文中没有提及,所以B,D错误。

8.单选题

问题1选项

A.preoccupy

【答案】D

【解析】动词词义辨析。preoccupy“使全神贯注”;feast“赴宴”;accomplish“完成”;predominate“支配,主宰”。句意:想要占主导地位,就要比以往任何时候都更努力地工作,不要给人际关系留下太多时间。选项D符合题意。

【答案】1.厄尔尼诺现象是一种以赤道太平洋为中心的气候系统的间歇性中断,对太平洋盆地周围的短期气候产生影响。

2.太阳对赤道地区的加热要比地球上其他地区强烈得多,所以那里的空气往往会从表面上升,取而代之的是来自亚热带的流入。

3.在海洋中,这些风倾向于将表层海水推向西部,因此印度尼西亚的海平面比南美洲海岸高出约50厘米,这让我们了解了信风的力量和稳定性。

4.然后,在它向西航行的过程中,地表水在一个巨大的国际日期变更线以西的区域被太阳加热到约29摄氏度,这片区域被称为西太平洋暖池,那里的海洋温度比海水到达东方表面时大约高出6摄氏度。

5.上升的充满水分的空气将热量和水蒸气抽到高层大气中,在那里它们可以被带去很远的地方。

【答案】第1题:C

第2题:A

第3题:C

第4题:C

第5题:B

【解析】1.细节题。第一段:Iamoneofthemanycitypeoplewhoarealwayssayingthatgiventhechoicewewouldprefertoliveinthecountryawayfromthedirtandnoiseofalargecity(我是众多城市人中的一员,如果要做选择的话,我们宁愿住在远离大城市的尘土和噪音的乡村)。说明作者是在城里工作。

2.细节题。定位至第二段。Thesenseofbelongingtoacommunitytendstodisappear,peopleonthesamefloorintowerblocksdon’tevensayhellotoeachother,由此推测B项(lackofcommunication)是原因之一。Themajorityofthepopulationliveinmassivetowerblocks,noisy,dirtyandimpersonal,,Allyoucanseefromyourwindowissky,orotherblocksofflats,由此推测C项(housingconditions)也是原因之一。Children,,coopedupathomeallday,,theirmothersfeelisolatedfromtherestoftheworld,由此推测D项(asenseofisolation)也是原因之一。故选A。

3.推断题。第三段指出:Shoppingbecomesamajorproblem,andforanythingslightlyoutoftheordinaryyouhavetogoonanexpeditiontothenearestlargetown(住在一个小村庄里,购物是一个大问题,即使只是稍微特别的物品,人们也必须到附近大城镇去买),由此推测在乡村不容易买到的东西应是designerclothes。

4.推断题。第四段说:Theygenerallyhaveaboutasmuchsensitivityastheplasticflowerstheyleavebehind—theyarepollutedwithstrangeideasaboutchangesandimprovementwhichtheyforceontotheunwillingoriginalinhabitantsofthevillages.’即他们一般还是比较敏感的...他们也把某些改变强加给当地农村居民。故选C项Arrogant(骄横的)比较合适。

5.推断题。最后一段:I’mkeenontheidea...No,hewouldratherhavetheelectricimitation-coalfireanyevening,作者说他一点也不确定他的猫会接受新鲜空气,在长草中锻炼,并且在后面用猫来作了否定的答复。由此推测作者不会去农村生活。

问题1选项

A.ashighas

B.ashighto

C.sohighto

D.sohighas

【答案】B

【解析】考查词组辨析。ashighas/to都意为“高达”,但是后面明确接的是高达的数字时,用to。as虽然也是高达,但是用在两者作为比较的时候用的,如Tomisashighashissister.句意:那家商店的自行车价格高达250美元。因此B选项正确。

【答案】自阿尔弗莱德•诺贝尔先生1896年去世后,我们就进入了一个狂暴而悲惨的时代。人类的势力在每个领域都有所发展,只有其自身除外。在战场上从未有过如此残酷之事,人格如此卑微,历史上思想受控于残酷的事实也是罕有,广为舍弃的美德也从未如此黯淡无光。

我们所在的欧洲和西方社会,曾注重医疗事业和社会安全事业,曾在医学和科学上取得惊人成功,曾致力于全人类的正义和自由,可我们现在却见证了饥荒、痛苦、残忍和毁灭。这些足以使成吉思汗的丰功伟绩黯然失色。从起初的国际联盟到今天的联合国,我们一直尝试着给人们梦想已久的和平,建立一个持久的基础。我们目睹了分崩离析、战火纷飞的破损社会,其动荡比罗马帝国崩溃后对欧洲的震动更惨重和剧烈。

阿尔弗莱德•诺贝尔先生将辉煌而不朽的文化、意志和灵感的灯火留给了急需滋养的一代。这个举世闻名的机构指出了一条真正的道路,引领我们前行。所以让我们用忍耐、机敏与冷静,来对抗我们身边嘈杂与僵化的环境吧。
