SECTION 7 (20%)

Read the following passages and then answer the questions that follow.

Passage A

With its common interest in lawbreaking but its immense range of subject-matter and widely-varying methods of treatment, the crime novel could make a legitimate claim to be regard as a separate branch of literature, or, at least, as a distinct, even though a slightly disreputable, offshoot of the traditional novel.

The detective story is probably the most respectable (at any rate in the narrows of the word) of the crime species. Its creation is often the relaxation of University done literary economists, scientists or even poets. Fatalities may occur more frequently and mysteriously than might be expected in polite society, but the world in which they happen, the village, seaside resort, college or studio, is familiar to us, if not from our own experience, at least in the newspaper or the lives of friends. The characters, though normally realized superficially, are as recognizably human and consistent as our less intimate associates. A story set in a more remote environment. African jungle or Australian bush, ancient China or gaslit London, appeals to our interest in geography or history, and most detective story writers are conscientious in providing a reasonably authentic background. The elaborate carefully-assembled plot, despised by the modern intellectual artists and creators of significant novels, has found refuge in the murder mystery, with its sprinkling of clues. It’s spicing with apparent impossibilities, all with appropriate solutions and explanations at the end. With the gum of escapism from Peal Life nagging gently, we secretly revel in the unmasking of evil by a vaguely superhuman sleuth, who sees through and dispels the cloud of suspicion which has hovered so unjustly over the innocent.

Though its villain also receives his rightful desert, the thriller presents a less comfortable and credible world. The sequence of fist fights, revolved deals, car crashes and escapes from gas-filled cellars exhausts the reader far more than the hero, who suffering from at least two broken ribs, one black one, uncountable bruises and hangover car, still chase and overpower an armed villain with the physique of wrestler. He moves dangerously through a world of ruthless gangs, brutality, a vicious lust for power and money and, in contrast to the detective tale, with a near-omniscient arch-criminal whose defeat seems almost accidental. Perhaps we miss in the thriller the security of being safe, led by our imperturbable investigator past a score of red herrings and blind avenues to a final gathering of suspects when an unchallengeable elucidation of all that has bewildered us is given and justice and goodness prevail. All that we vainly hope for from life is granted vicariously.

91. The detective novel may be considered respectable in the sense that

A.people need not feel ashamed of reading one.

B.there are often some well-drawn characters in it.

C.it deals with conventional people and scenes.

D.it is written by people of culture and intelligence.

92. The passage suggests that intellectuals write detective stories because,

A.the stories are often in fact very instructive.

B.they enjoy writing these stories.

C.the creation of these stories demands considerable intelligence.

D.detectives stories are an accepted branch of literature.

93. Which of the following are the only unlikely aspects of the average detective novel?

A.Its incidents.

B.Its characters.

C.Its setting.

D.Its authorship

94. Which feature of the detective story is said to disqualify it from respectful consideration by intellectual critics?

A.The many seeming impossible events.

B.The fact that the guilty are always found out and the innocent cleared.

C.The existence of a neat closely-knit story.

D.The lack of interest in genuine character revelations.

95. Which of the following is mentioned in the passage as one of the similarities between the detective story and the thriller?

A.Both have involved thriller?

B.Both are condemned by modern critics.

C.Both are forms of escapist fiction.

D.Both demonstrate the triumph of right over wrong.

96. One of the most incredible characteristics of the thriller plot is

A.the eventual defeat of the villain

97. In what way are the detective story and the thriller unlike?

B.In proving excitement and suspense.

C.In introducing violence.

D.In ensuring that everything comes right in the end.

Passage B

The long-drawn booming of the wind in the wood, and the sobbing and moaning in the maples and oaks near the house, had made Lettie restless. She did not want to go anywhere; she did not want to do anything, so she insisted on my just going out with her as far as the edge of the water. We crossed the tangle of fern and bracken, bramble and wild-raspberry canes that spread in the open space before the house, and we went down the grassy slope to the edge of Nethermere. The wind whipped up noisy little wavelets, and the cluck and clatter of these among the pebbles, the swish of the rushes and the freshening of the breeze against our faces, round us.

The tall meadow-sweet was in bud along the tiny beach and we walked knee-deep among it, watching the foamy race of the ripples and the whitening of the willows on the far shore. At the place where Nethermere narrows to the upper end, and receives the brook from Strelley, the wood sweeps down and stands with its feet washed round with waters. We broke our way along the shore, crushing the sharp-scented wild-mint, whose odour checks the breath, and examining here and there among the marshy places ragged nests of water-fowl, now deserted. Some slim young lapwings started at our approach, and sped lightly from us, their necks outstretched in straining fear to that which could not hurt them. One, two, fled cheeping into cover of the wood; almost

instantly they coursed back again to where we stood, to dart off from us at an angle, in an ecstasy of bewilderment and terror.

―What has frightened the crazy little things?‖ asked Lettie.

―I don't’ Know. They’ve cheek enough sometimes: then they go whining, skelping off form a fancy as if they had a snake under their wings. ‖

Lettie, however, paid small attention to my eloquence, she pushed aside an elder bush, which graciously showered down upon her myriad crumbs from its flowers like slices of bread, and bathed her in a medicinal scent. I followed her, taking my dose, and was startled to hear her sudden, ―Oh, Cyril!‖

On the bank before us lay a black cat, both hind-paws torn and bloody in a trap. It had no doubt been bounding forward after its prey when it was caught. It was gaunt and wild: no wonder if frightened the poor lapwings into cheeping hysteria. It glared at us fiercely, growling low.

―How cruel –oh, how cruel!‖ cried Lettie, shuddering.

I wrapped my cap and Lettie’s scarf ove r my hands and bent to open the trap. The cat struck with her teeth, tearing the cloth convulsively. When it was free, it sprang away with one bound, and fell panting, watching us.

I wrapped the creature in my jacket, and picked her up, murmuring:

―P oor Mrs. Nickie Ben—we always prophesied it of you.‖

―What will you do with it?‖ asked Lettie.

―It is one of the strelley Mill cats.‖ said I, ―and so I’ll take her home.‖

The poor animal moved and murmured as I carried her, but we brought her home. They stared, on seeing me enter the kitchen coatless, carrying a strange bundle, while Lettie followed me: ―I have brought poor Mrs Nickle Ben.‖ said I, unlolding my burden.

―Oh, what a shame!‖ cried Elimily, Putting out her hand to touch the cat, b ut drawing quickly back like the lapwings.

―This is now they all go.‖ said the mother.

―I wish keepers had to sit two or three days with their bare ankles in a trap.‖ said Mollie in vindictive tones.

We laid the poor brute on the rug, and gave it warm mill. It drank very little, being too feeble. Mollie, full of anger, fetched Mr. Nickie Ben, another fine black cat, to survey his crippled mate, Mr. Nickie Ben Looked, shrugged his sleek shoulders, and walked away with high steps. There was a general feminine outcry on masculine callousness.

George came in for hot water. He exclaimed in surprise on seeing us, and his eyes became animated.

―Look at Mrs. Nickie Ben.‖ cried Mollie. He dropped on his knees on the rug, and lifted the wounded paws.

―Broken,‖ said he.

―How awful!‖ said Emily, shuddering violently, and leaving the room.

―Both?‖ I asked.

―Only one -- look!‖

---The End

2000年section 8

答案：

Departments of literature in higher education, then, are part of the ideological apparatus of the modern capitalist state. They are not wholly reliable apparatuses, since for one thing the humanities contain many values, meanings and traditions which are antithetical to that state's social priorities, which are, rich in kinds of wisdom and experience beyond its comprehension. For another thing, if you allow a lot of young people to do nothing for a few years but read books and talk to each other then it is possible that, given certain wider historical circumstances, they will not only begin to question some of the values transmitted to them but begin to interrogate the authority by which they are transmitted. There is of course no harm in students questioning the values conveyed to them: indeed it is part of the very meaning of higher education that they should do so. Independent thought, critical dissent and reasoned dialectic are part of the very stuff of a humane education; hardly anyone, as I commented earlier, will demand that your essay on Chaucer or Baudelaire arrive inexorably at certain pre-set conclusions. All that is being demanded is that you manipulate a particular language in acceptable ways. Becoming certificated by the state as proficient in literary studies is a matter of being able to talk and write in certain ways. It is this

which is being taught, examined and certificated, not what you personally think or believe, though what is thinkable will of course be constrained by the language itself. You can think or believe what you want, as long as you can speak this particular language. Nobody is especially concerned about what you say, with what extreme, moderate, radical or conservative positions you adopt, provided that they are compatible with, and can be articulated within, a specific form of discourse. It is just that certain meanings and positions will not be articulable within it. Literary studies, in other words, are a question of the signifier, not of the signified. Those employed to teach you this form of discourse will remember whether or not you were able to speak it proficiently long after they have forgotten what you said.

Translation （50％）

Then YUN held my hand and was going to say something again, but she could only mumble the words ―Next incarnation!‖ half audibly again and again. Suddenly she began to feel short of breath, her chin was set, her eyes started wide open, and however I called her name, she could not utter a single word. Two lines of tears kept on rolling down her cheeks. After a while, her breath became weaker, her tears gradually dried up and her spirit departed from this life for ever. This was on the thirtieth of the third moon, and a sense of utter forlornness overcame me. In my heart opened a wound that shall be healed nevermore!

My friend Hu K’ engt’ang kindly helped me with ten dollars, and together with this and what I could obtain by selling all I had in the house, I saw to her proper burial.

Alas! Yun was a woman with the heart and talent of a man. From the time she was married into my home, I had been forced to run about abroad for a living, while she was left without sufficient money, and she never said a word of complaint. When I could stay at home, our sole occupation was the discussion of books and literature. She did in poverty and sickness without being able to see her own children, and who was to blame but myself? How could I ever express the debt I owe to a good chamber companion? I should like to urge upon all married couples in the world neither to hate nor to be too passionately attached to each other. As the proverb says, ―A loving couple could never reach grand old age together.‖ Mine is a case in point.

2012年职称英语考试大纲要点解读

全国职称英语等级考试是由国家人事部组织实施的一项外语考试，2012年职称英语大纲要点解读根据英语在不同专业领域活动中的应用特点，结合专业技术人员掌握和应用英语的实际情况，对申报不同级别职称的专业技术人员的英语水平提出了不同的要求。该考试根据专业技术人员使用英语的实际情况，把考试的重点放在了阅读理解上。 专业类别 全国专业技术人员职称英语等级考试分为三个专业类别：综合类，理工类和卫生类。每个专业类别的考试各分为A.B.C 三个等级，其中A级考试的语言难度最高，C级考试语言难度最低，B级考试的语言难度介于A 级和C级之间。综合类的考试中不涉及专业性的文章及专业词汇，考题中所出现的文章大多通俗易懂，主题涉及社会，文化，教育等方面。三个等级考试的总分各为100分，考试时间均为2个小时，参加考试的考生允许带一本普通的英语字典进入考场。 普通英语词典指针对日常英语学习和使用而编写的词典，如：《英汉大词典》，《牛津英汉双解阋典》等。专门针对职称英语号试编写的各类英语词典(尤其是封面上带有职称英语字样的词典).及各种电子词典均不允许在考场中使用建议综合类的考生可以在考场中使用提供了单词较全面的词义注释及其常见搭配结构.并涉及到了单词常见近义词的《牛津英汉双解词典》。建议参加C级和B级考试的考生可以使用《牛津英汉双解词典(中级)》，参加A 级考试的考生使用《牛津英汉双解词典(高级)》。 评价目标 申报A级的人员在两小时内应完成3000词左右的阅读任务(A级考题中每篇文章长度为350-450词左右)，并能正确理解所读材料的内容;申报8级的人员在两小时内应完成2600词左右的阅读任务(B级考题中每篇文章长度为300—450词左右)，并能正确理解所读材料的内容;申报C级的人员在两小时内容应完成2200词左右的阅读任务(C级考题中每篇文章长度为250—400词左右)，并能正确理解所读材料的内容。 为了达到以上评价目标，考试对应试者的英语词汇量.英语语法知识和阅读能力都作出了相应要求： 词汇量要求 A级的人员能识别6000个左右的单词和一定数量的短语; B级的人员能识别5(100个左有的单词和一一定数馈的短语; C级的人员能识别4000个左有的单涧和一定数量的短语; 在实际考试中出现的词汇：绝大部分为常见的单词和短语结构(2000个左右)，而且有一部分基本词汇在同一套考题中多次出现.因此在复习中可以主要掌握2000个左右的核心单词和短语结构。实际考试中出现的超纲词一般都会给出中文注释。 语法知识 职称英语考试中不直接考察语法(考题中没有与语法相关的多项选择题或语法改错题).而是把对基本语法的考察融入到各种考题中.进行间接考察。以综合C级/B级阅读判断考题(petitions)为例： 18.A petition has to be mailed to the Prime Minisler’s house in London. A.’l'rue B.alse C.Not mentioned带有下划线的句子是该题出题的依据： (文章第一段)Petitions(请愿，请愿书)have long been a part of British political life.Anyone who wanted to change something would get a list oI signatures from people who agreed to the idea and either send them to the government or deliver them personally to the Prime Minister's house in London.www.Ｅhttps://www.wendangku.net/doc/ba15363806.html,考试就到考试大 该题属于细节题，该题要求考生对文章中所提供的细节信息进行识别和判断。该题考查

Translation A. 有没有一种“成功性格”，即几乎必然使人取得成就的某些性格特征的结合？如果有的话，这一成功的秘诀究竟是什么？并且，这种性格是否能培养出来？在盖洛普公司中，我们最近集中深入研究了成功现象，探查了1 500 名杰出人物的态度和性格特征。他们是从《美国名人录》中随机抽取的。被收入《名人录》的主要标准不是财富或社会地位，而是一个人当前在某个领域中的成就。我们的研究确认了一些在成就最显著的人身上总是出现的性格特征，其中最重要的五点是：由生活经验得出的判断力、专业知识、自力更生的精神、总的智力水平以及把事情完成的能力。如果你培养这些性格特征，你就很可能会成功。而且，你甚至可能会发现自己的名字有一天也被收进《名人录》。 B.6. In very young children, before traits have had much chance to develop, behaviou r is less consistent than it is in most adults. A child’s changing behaviour may show hi s changing concern with different features of his activity. His interest always focuses on the business at hand. The person with strong traits and interests persists in what he is doing. Only a major situational change can disturb the direction or purpose of his be haviour. Ⅴ. Writing Suggested passage: The proverb “Habit is second nature” is so often quoted that it has almost become a clich é, yet we all know how true it is. A habit is a form of learned, automatic behaviour tha t provides pleasure and comfort. A bad habit has long-term negative consequences, bu t it still gives immediate comfort. Once formed, it seems to stick to you, no matter ho w hard you,try to shake it off. For example, we have all heard of stories of determined individuals trying to give up smoking, but after strenuously resisting all temptations f or months, only to find themselves reverting to cigarettes again on the threshold of su ccess. So swearing off a bad habit is only half the battle; staying off requires good pla nning. To permanently rid yourself of a bad habit, whether it is smoking, drinking, ga mbling or overeating, you have to simultaneously unlearn certain behaviours and repl ace them with new ones that also provide gratification. If you smoke because cigarette s give you something to do with your hands, learn to play a music instrument instead. With a strong will-power and good strategy, you can surely break any bad habit. 第二单元 Ⅱ. V ocabulary 1. B 2. A 3. D 4. C 5. C 6. C 7. A 8. C 9. B 10. C B. 11. C 12. A 13. A 14. B 15. B 16. B 17. B 18.

A Translation 不论是在青年时夭折还是在老年时死去，都没有是否虚度了年华来得重要。一个人可能在18 年中比另一个在80 年中活得更有意义。对于生活，我们认为并不是要去不顾一切地积累大量的他人想象为有价值的经验，而是应该过好每天的时光，就好像它是唯一的一天。我们的意思是要寻找平和感和力量感去对付生活中的失意和痛苦，同时坚持不懈地努力去发现能增添更多生活乐趣和喜悦并加以维持的方法。 6. Scientific research continues to open up previously undreamed,of possibilities. Fift y years ago, few people could even imagine things like computers, lasers and hologra
