Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.

When e-mail first came into general use about fifteen years ago, there was a lot of talk about the imminent arrival of the paperless office. However, it seems that e-mail has yet to revolutionize office communications .According to communicate ions analyst Richard Metcalf, some offices have actually seen an increase in paper as increase in paper as a result of e-mail.‖ Information in the form of e-mail messages now floods our computer screens. These messages can be distributed in the hundres.For those secretaries whose books ask them to print out all their e-mails and leave them in their intrays, this means using up a great deal of paper every month ,‖Metc alf says.

Metcalf has found that because some e-mails get lost in cyberspace, as are increasingly likely to be asked by clients and colleagues to send all important documents both by e-mails and by fax or ―snail mail‖-though the post .This highlightsafuther postential problem with e-mail in today’s offices-it is taking up time rather than saving it.

―W ith e-mail, communication is much easier ,but there is also more room for misunderstrandings,‖says psaychologist Dr David Lewis Generally ,much lsee care is take with e-mails than with letters or faxes and the sender will probably print the the documents and reread it before putting it in an envelope or sending it by fax. More worrying is still the increase misuse of e-ma il for sending ―flame-mail‖ –abusive or inappropriate e-mail messages .Recent research in several companies suggests that aggressive communications like this are on the increase .E-mail has become the perfect medium for expressing workplace frustration because is so instant.

E-mail can also be a problem in order ways .Staff all too often make the mistake of thinking that the condense of an e-mail ,like things said over the phone ,are private and not permanent. But it is not only possible for an employer to read all your e-mails, it is also perfectly legal-mail messages can be traced back to their origin for a period of at last two years , so you might want to rethink e-mailing your frustrations about your job to your friends. The advice is to keep personal e-mails out of the office .

It goes without saying that e-mail exists to make life easier, and if used correctly, it is an invaluable tool for business of all sizes. But perhaps, for the time being ,the fact that in the business word 70persent of all documents are still in paper form is not such a bad thing after all.

46.Why has the promise of the paperless office not come true in many offices?

D.Many of them are never read

49.Why should employees not use company e-mail systems for personal messages?

A.Because company e-mail systems are not easy to use.

Section B(10 marks)

In this section, there is one passage followed by five incomplete sentences. Read the passage carefully, and then complete the sentences in a maximum of there words for each blank. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet.

Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.

It is well known that some cultures prefer sons to daughters. In contrast, surveys have revealed that some people would rather have a daughter than a son. Apparently, each of these preference has its explanation in the local culture .

Around the world , people who prefer sons have similar reasons .In many countries , sons are valued because they can work and contribute to the family income . Also , sons will be able to support their parents when the parents are old . In some cultures , sons are important because they enable the family name to continue for another generation . This is because the wife in these cultures takes her husband’s

family name , and more or less ―belongs ‖to the husband’s family . In addition , having a daughter can sometimes cause difficult for a family . In India , for example , having a daughter can be a burden because the family has to pay a dowry when the girl gets married .

Generally ,people think traditional cultures are the ones in which boy s are preferred . Research seems to support this belief . However , according to a survey conducted in 2000, people in the Czech Republic , Lithuania , Portugal , and the Caribbean prefer to have daughters . The researchers said that parents in these societies do not need to have the same economic situation that exists in other countries , so they do not need to have a son to help make money . Instead , families in these countries want daughters for emotional reasons . Many mothers think they will have a better relationship with a daughter than a son , for example . In addition ,they think daughters will take better care of them when they are old .

In Japan , a similar trend has emerged . This might come as a surprise to some , because only one generation ago , the Japanese favored sons . In

1982 , over half of Japanese couples surveyed would want a boy if they could have only one child . A survey done in 1997 , on the other hand , found that 75 percent wanted a girl !

Some Japanese couples say they want to have daughters because they think daughters are cuter and easier to raise . Japanese couples also worry about being taken care of when they are old . If they have to live with their children when they are very old , many Japanese parents would want to live with a daughter . ―A sons wife would be a stranger and harder to ask for help ,‖ one Japan ese mother said .

Critics warn that preference for a daughter is just as bad as preference for a son . ―Instead of valuing children for the social roles they are expected to fill , parents must learn to value children as individuals ,‖ critics say . when that is the case, parents will be equally pleased with a son or daughter . Questions:

51. The reasons that parents prefer to have sons are to continue____ , to

Help earn money for the family , and to support the parents in their old

Age .

52. Japan’s preference for daughters now is quite____ because not long ago

The preference was for sons .

53. In some developing countries , parents value boys more than girls mainly

for _____ .

54 . In India , parents receive _______ when their sons get married .

55. Critics maintain that children should be treated by their parents as ___.

Section C (10 marks )

In this section ,there is one passage followed by five questions . Read the passage carefully and then answer each of the questions in a maximum of 10 words . Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet .

Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.

At least 600,000 jobs could disappear in the UK this year , according to a report by a personnel managers’ professional body . The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development says even those who escape redundancy will face pay freezes .It says that while total unemployment will not hit three million , the time between New Y ear and Easter will be the worst for job losses since 1991 .

According to official statistics , there were 1.86 million people out of work in the UK in October , 2008. This figure was the highest since 1997 , taking the overall unemployment rate to 6 percent . David Frost of the British Chamber of Commerce says , ―It is the worst year . Companies are in survival mode .‖

The CIPD , which represents managers and personnel staff , issued its gloomy forecast a day after children’s retailer Adams j oined a growing list of well known chains applying for bankruptcy protection .Chief economist John Philpott said , ―In the face of some skepticism , the CIPD warned that 2008 would the UK’s worst year for jobs in a decad e . It was , but in retrospect

it will be seen as merely the slow –motion prelude to what will be the worst year for jobs in almost two decades . The CIPD’s annual barometer forecast is that the UK economy will shed at least 600,000 jobs in 2009 .Overall ,the 18-month period from the start of the recession in mid-2008 until the end of 2009 will witeness the loss of around three quarters of a million jobs , equivalent to the total net rise in employment in the preceding three years .‖ Mr Philpott said job losses were likely to continue into 2010 ,taking the final toll to about one million .

The CIPD also surveyed 2,600 workers and found that more than one in four did not expect a pay rise next year ,while others feared wage cuts .

The institute’s reward adviser ,Charles Cotton ,said ,‖Employees are realistic about their pay prospects . Against this backdrop ,employers will need to work hard to find new ways to motivate their employees to perform .‖

―Financial incentives and targeted investment in training and development could be effective ways to do this ,‖ he added .

―Mo re than ever , this is a time where organizations need to engage in an open and straightforward communication with their staff , clearly explaining the reasons for any difficult measures that will affect them ,‖ he said . ―Th is will help preserve staff loyalty and engagement even during times when unpopular decisions need to made .‖

Questions:

56. According to the passage , which will be the worst year for job losses

In the UK ?

57. What kind of organization is the Chartered Institute of Personnel and

Development ?

58. What are many British companies now struggling for ?

Section D (10 marks)

In this section, ther e is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage car efully, and then complete the summary below by choosing a maximum of thr ee wor ds fr om the passage to full in each of the blanks. Remember ton write the answers on the answer sheet.

Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.

Everyone knows about pollution in the environment. W ater, air, and land are all polluted. This means that pollution is everywhere .Now, scientists are looking inside our bodies to find out about internal pollution.

In 2003, the Environmental W orking Group studied nine people to measure the chemicals in there bodies. These nine people

had an average of 53 cancer-causing chemicals in their bodies .They also had average of 62 chemicals that can harm babies in pregnant women .Even though a lot of chemicals were found in human bodies , the chemicals were found in small amounts .The amounts were small enough that they were probably not hurting the people . However, scientists are worried because most of these chemicals were created by humans. Most of these chemicals did not exist 75b years ago. This proves that we have not only polluted the world – we have polluted our own babies!

How dose this pollution get into our bodies? W e come into contact with many chemicals everyday .for example, everyone use soap, skin lotion, and shampoo. However, few people know that these products contain harmful chemicals, some of which may cause memory loss. Chemicals known as DEA(diethanolamine) and TEA(triethanolamine) may seep into the skin and stop us from absorbing a helpful nutrient called ―choline‖. C holine is a nutrient that plays a crucial role in the memory cell making progress in the developing brain. Some people worry that every time we wash our hair, we are decreasing our memories.

Everyone knows they should brush their teeth regularly, but recent research has shown that some toothpastes can cause cancer. Fluoride is a key ingredient in many toothpastes. However, studies show that fluoride dose not really protect our teeth. In fact, fluoride has been connected with bone cancer and other diseases. While we are trying to save our smiles, we could be damaging our health.

W omen are probably exposed to more chemicals then men because they use more beauty products. Recently, harmful chemicals are called ―phthalates‖. Studies on animals have shown that phthalates can damage the liver, the kidneys, and the lungs. Cosmetic companies say the amounts of phthalates in their products are safe. But consumer protection groups disagree. They say some women try to look beautiful, the more they could be harming their health.

In a futuristic story by Ray Bradbury, a man found a pristine stream on a new planet. When he drank from the stream, he died! Why? His body was so polluted that pure water was a position to him! Perhaps that is only science fiction, but it reminds us to take care of our bodies. W e must find ways to reduce the pollution we absorb.

Summary:

Like our polluted environment, our bodies are no longer pollution-free. Scientists now know that there is pollution in our bodies. On (61) , we have 53 cancer-causing chemicals in our bodies. Even fluoride (62) with bone cancer and other diseases. Some common cosmetics contain small amounts of chemicals, which seep into our (63) when we use these products. They prevent us from absorbing the (64) our bodies need. So, it is (65) that we find ways to reduce the amount of chemicals in our bodies. W e should remind our friends and families to take care of their bodies. Part IV Cloze(15 minutes,15 marks)

Part V T ranslation (15minutes, 20 marks)

Section A (10 marks)

T ranslate the underlined sentences of the following passage into Chinese. Remember to write the answer sheet.

Embroidery (刺绣) is a brilliant pearl in Chinese art .(81) From the magnificent Dragon Robes worn by emperors to today’s fashions, embroidery adds a great deal of pleasure to our culture and our lives.

The oldest embroidery on record in China dates from the Shang Dynasty. Embroidery in this period symbolized social status. (82) It was not until later on, as the national economy developed, that embroidery entered the lives of the common people.

After the Zhou Dynasty, the Han Dynasty witnessed a leap in both techniques and styles of embroidery. Embroidered objects ranged from the sun, the moon, stars, mountains dragons, and phoenixes to tigers, flowers and grasses, clouds and geometric patterns. A uspicious words were also fashionable. Both historic records and products of the time prove this.

The cultural relics found in the Mawangdui Han T omb are the best evidence of this unprecedented development in embroidery.

In addition, embroidery unearthed from the Mogao Caves in Dunhuang , the ancient tombs in T urpan and northern Inner Mongolia ,further strengthen this observation .

(84) The Chinese word for embroidery is ―xiu‖, a picture or embroidery in five colours .It implies beautiful and magnificent

things.

Embroidery was an elegant task for ladies who were forbidden to go out of their homes. (85)It was a good pastime to which they could devote their intelligence and passion . Imagine a beautiful young lady embroidering a dainty pouch .Stitch by stitch, she embroiders a pair of lov e birds for her lover .It’s a cold winter day and the room is filled with the aroma of incense. What a touching and beautiful picture!

―I didn’t set out to a children’s movie,‖ says Being john Malkovich director spike jonze , ―I set out to make a movie about children.‖ Indeed, like the recent alternative children’s book (46) adapt , F antastic Mr F ox, this is more like an adult film (47) children’s clothing -or rather in Jim Henson monster suits.

As a film , I can’t (50) de it’s disappointing.

Enough already! W e get this dy sfunctional group of neurotic W ild Things (52) rep Max’s child’s ey e view of grown-ups as comprehensible giants, both terrify ing and loving.

Section B(10 marks)

The giant panda, the creature that has become a symbol of conservation ,is facing extinction. The major reason is loss of habitat, which has contitued despite the establishment of 14 panda reserves . Deforestation , mainly carried out by farmers clearing land to make way for fields as they move higher into the mammal’s range. The panda has disappeared from much of central and eastern China, and is now restricted to the eastern flank of the Himalayas.

Satellite imagery has shown the seriousness of the situation ; almost half of the panda’s habitat has been cut down or degraded since 1975.W orse ,the surviving panda population has also become fragmented; a combination of satellite imagery and ground surveys reveals panda ―island‖ in patches of forest separated by cleared land. The population of these islands has become isolated because the animals are loath to cross open areas .Just putting a road through panda habitat may be enough to split a population in two.

The minuscule size of the panda populations worries conservationists. The smallest groups have too few animals to be viable, and will inevitably die out .The larger populations may be viable in the short term, but will be susceptible to genetic defects as a result of inbreeding.

In these circumstances, a more tradition threat to pandas – the cycle of flowering and subsequent withering of the bamboo that is their staple food – can become literally species-threatening. The flowering prompts pandas to move from one area to

another, thus preventing inbreeding in otherwise sedentary populations. In pandas, however, bamboo flowering could prove catastrophic(灾难性的)because the pandas are unable emigrate.

The latest conservation management plan for the panda, prepared by China’s Ministry of Forestry and the W orld W ide Fund for Nature, aims primarily at maintaining panda habitats and ensuring that population are linked wherever possible. This plan will change some existing reserve boundaries, establish 14 new reserves and protect or replant corridors-of forest between panda islands. Other measures include better control of poaching, reducing the degradation of habitats outside reserves, and reforestation.

The plan is ambitious. Implementation will be expensive and will require participation by individuals ranging from villagers to government officials.

Question 61 to 65: Complete the summary with words from the passage, changing the form where necessary, only one word for each blank.

The survival of the giant panda is seriously (61) .This is largely because the overall size of their habitat has been reduced. As a result, pandas are more prone to problems and are unable to (62) around freely, following the growth cy cles of (63) plant. A new plan aims to protect existing panda (64) and to join some of them together. This plan also involves reforestation and the creation of new reserves. T o succeed, every one, (65) both the government and individuals, will have to cooperate.

Section C (10 marks)

Honda has developed a way to read patterns of electric currents on a person’s scalp as well as changes in cerebral blood flow when a person thinks about four simple movements-moving the right hand, moving the left hand, running and eating.

In a video

shown at T okyo headquarters, a person wearing a helmet sat still but thought about moving his right hand – a thought that was picked up by electrodes attached his head inside the helmet.

Honda said the technology wasn’t quite ready for a live demonstration because of possible distractions in the person’s thinking.

Another problem is that brain patterns differ greatly among individuals, and so about two to three hours of studying them in advance are needed for the technology to work. The company, a leader in robotics, acknowledged the technology was still at a basic research stage, with no immediate practical application in the work.

Japan boasts one of the leading robotics industries in the world, and the government is pushing to develop the industry as a road to growth. Research on the brain is being tackled around the world, but Honda said its research was among the most

2016年全国大学生英语能力竞赛攻略 学长分享英语竞赛技巧: 知己知彼百战不殆”,要想在全国大学生英语竞赛中取得好成绩,平时的积累是基础,而考前对考试的研究和分析以及练习则是升华。近几年来英语竞赛也在不断调整中。对我们来说,最重要的参考资料就是当年的竞赛样题,和官网的考试说明文件,从中我们可以了解到考试的题型、分值、时间分配、难度和新变化。只有这样我们才能对症下药,合理分配考试时间,获得最好的成绩。其实考试,一言以蔽之,就是尽量的规定时间内拿到最高的分数,分数越高,就意味着你越成功。由于每年试题结构、题型等都会有所变化,下面就以2010年的英语竞赛初赛试题为例,分析一下时间安排。今年初赛试题共分为七部分,时间120分钟,满分150分。七部分分别为听力、词汇与语法结构、完形填空、阅读理解、翻译、智力测试和写作。下面就分别进行分析。 第一部分是听力,由四部分组成,第一部分是五篇短对话,然后是两篇长对话,第三部分是五篇短新闻,第四部分是听写式填空。总分是30分,总的来说,听力的难度不算很大,应该是介于四、六级之间,大部分都可以直接从对话中找到原句和答案。但是还是有一定难度的。首先,前20道选择题都只读一遍,这和一般的考试不同,所以对选手就提出了更高的要求,必须从一开始就高度集中注意力,才能不遗漏重要信息。此外,听写式填空也是对基本知识的一个考查,经常有同学听到了却不会写,这需要我们打好自己的基础。这一部分要力争拿到20分以上。 第二部分是词汇与语法结构,这也是对“双基”知识的一个考查,可以说基本上是考查基本功的,当然我们也要注意,这其中对话类的应用题目也呈逐年上升的趋势。总分15分,官方建议完成时间是十分钟。这一部分要力争拿到10分以上。 第三部分是完形填空,也是我认为全卷除了智力测试以外最难的题目,题型包括根据上下文填空、根据给出的首字母填空、根据给出的单词的适当形式填空。分值是十分,官方建议完成时间是10分钟。这题不仅考查你的基本词汇语法知识,也考查你对文章的理解和把握。可以说是阅读+词汇的结合。要拿高分很难,但是其实还是有一些分好拿的,这一部分我们要力争拿到4分以上。 第四部分是阅读理解,总分40分,官方建议完成时间是25分钟。这是全卷分值最大的一道大题,也是时间最紧的。我估计绝大多数同学在25分钟内都没办法全部完成(我也很勉强)。这一部分我觉得最重要的还是把握文章的开头和结尾,了解主旨,然后根据题目去快速定位,因为这里的题目大部分都是在原文可以找到答案的。这一部分阅读量大、题型多样(包括选择题、问答题、是/否/未提及题,摘抄题、填空题等)、也是对同学英语应用能力的有力考查,还是要熟能生巧,在平时多加练习,力争达到又对又快的境界,这一部分要力争拿到25分以上。 第五部分是翻译,包括英译汉和汉译英两部分。共20分,官方建议完成时间是15分钟。这一部分可以说是全卷最简单的题型,考查的内容都没超过四级甚至是平常练习的难度,对英译汉,还是要花点时间看看文章开头和结尾,“磨刀不误砍柴工”,很多翻译都要根据上下文进行,才能更加的到位。有时在翻译中遇到生词,也可以根据上下文进行推断。比如今年的汉译英试题中多次提到“dropout”这个单词,我考试时也忘了这是什么意思,最后还是通过文章最后
