The school had the biggest swimming pool I had ever seen. It was a good joke to come up behind a naked boy, and push him into the pool. I made quite a habit of this with boys of my own size or less.One day I saw a boy wrapped in a towel on the side of the pool. He was no bigger than I was,so I thought him a fair game. Coming secretly behind,I pushed him in, holding on to his towel so that it would not get wet, I was surprised to see an angry face come out from the water, and a being of great strength masking its way by face strokes (猛力地划)to the shore. I fled, but in vain. He overtok me, seized me violently, and threw me into the deepest part of ther pool. I soon climbed out on the other side, and found myself surrounded by a crowd of younger boys.“Do you know what you have done?”they said,“It’s Amery; he is in Grade Six. He is champion at gym,he has got his football honor.”I was frightened and felt ashamed. How could I tell his position when be was wrapped in a bath towel and so small.”He didn’t seem pleased at all, so I adde d in a most brilliant word,“My father, who is a great man, is also small.”At this be laughed, and after some general words about my rude behavior and how I had better be careful in the future, signified the incident was closed.56.The writer thought Amery“a fair game”because the boy .A.looked like an animalB.was fond of gamesC.was of similar sizeD.was good at sports57.The writer felt“ashamed”because .A.he was laughted at by other boysB.Amery turned out to be in the same gradeC.he pushed Amery hard and hurt himD.he played a joke on an outstanding athlete58.By saying “My father, who is a great man, is also small”, the write .A.tried to please AmeryB.challenged AmeryC.threatened AmeryD.admired his father59.Which of the following is TRUE?A.The writer could run faster than Amery.B.The writer liked playing on boys of all sizes.C.Amery was a student in Grade Four.D.Amery forgave the writer for his rude behavior.(B)questions that follow.60.You may find the above advertisements .A.in a store windowB.in a school magazineC.in a newspaperD.on a company notice-board61.The position of a(n) is a part-time job.A.floristB.artistC.preschool teacherD.dental nurse62. Which of the following is the most important for the childcare job?A.Cooking skills.B.Childcare experience.C.The ability to start work in two weeks.D. D.The ability to work well with other people.63.The office eleaners will be required to work about hours a week.A.5B.10C.15D.20(C)As a professor at a large American university, there is a phrase that I hear often from students:“I’m only a 1050.”The unlucky students are speaking of the score on the Seholastic Aptitude Test(SAT), which is used to determine whether they will be admitted to the college or university of their choice, or even have a chance to get a higher education at all. The SAT score, whether it is 800, 1 100 or 1550, has becomes the focus at this time of their life.It is obvious that if students value highly their test scores, then a great amount of their self-respect is put in the number. Students who perform poorly on the exam are left feeling that it is all over. The low test score, they think, will make it impossible for them to get into a good college. And without a degree from a prestigious university, they fear that many of life’s doors will remain forever closed.According to a study done in the 1990s, the SAT is only a reliable indicator of a student’s future performance in most cases. Interestingly, it becomes much more accurate when it is set together with other indicatorn——like a student’s high school grades. Even if standardieed tests like the SAT could show a steudnt’s academic profieiency（学业水平）,they will never be able to test things like confidence, efforts and willpower, and are unable to give us the full picture of a student’s potentialities（潜力）.This is not to suggest that we should stop using SAT scores in our college admission process. The SAT is an excellent test in many ways, and the score is still a useful means of testing students. However, it should be only one of many methods used.64.The purpose of the SAT is to test students’.A.strong willB.academic abilityC.full potentialitiesD.confidence in school work65.Students’ self-respect is influeneed by their .A.seores in the SATB.achievements in mathematicC.job opportunitiesD.money spent on education66.“A prestigious university”is most probablyA.a famous universityB.a technical universtiyC.a traditional universityD.an expensive university67.This passage is mainly about .A.how to prepare for the SATB.stress caused by the SATC.American higher educationD.the SAT and its effects(D)Brian Walker chews pens. He bites them so hard that his boss has warned him to stop or buy his own. Kate’s weakness is more acceptable-she is unalbe to walk past a cake shop without overeating Sophin Cartier find s her cigarette habit a headache, while Alice’s thumb-sucking drives her boy friend crazy. Four people with very different habits, but they all share a common problem anxiety disorder or, in serious cases. Obessive Compulisive Disorder (OCD).From nail-biting to too much hand-washing, overeating and internet addiction（上瘾）,OCD is widespread in almost every workplace and countless home. “It is a relatively common form of nxiety,”says Dr. Mootee. “Tbe main feature of OCD is the repetitin of unwanted bosersive（过度的）thoughts such as worries that doors are left unlocked , gas or electrical appliances are left on.”In order to fight against the an esasy chedcking door locks and gas or electrical appliandces.Dr. Mootee says that repetitive washing, particularlu of the hands, is the most common type of OCD. She hastreated many patients who wash their hands up to 30 times a day. The technique Mootee uses to treat people with OCD is called cognitive-behavioral therapy（认知行为疗法）.“It is based on the general idea that people have the ability to change the way they think and behave,”says Mootee.But when does a haibt become a problem?“It’s personal,”says Mootee.“Everyone has something unusual,but if you can’t put up with it,then it’s a problem and you need to do something to change it.”Mootee says many people reaist for treatmet because they fear they are “crazy”. But as people become more knoledgeable about these problems they will go and get help. The only way to coure is to coqnuer.68.If a person suffers from OCD, be is likely to keep doing any of the following EXCEPT .A.chewing pensB.hurting himselfC.sucking fingersD.biting nails69.According to the passage, a person suffering from OCD .A.reduces his/her anxiety by taking drugsB.gets into unwanted hagbits to relieve stressC.has unwanted thoughts about habitsD.has unwanted thoughts because of illness70.Dr. Mootee’s treating lechnique is based ont eh idea that.A.everyong has something differentB.people can put up with their problemsC.people can chag their way of thinking and actionD.people tend to repeat their obsessive actions71.By saying “The only way to cure is to conquer.”Dr. Mootee suggests that an OCD sufferer.A.has to be an extraordinary personB.must cure his illness by himselfC.must overcome many physical illnessesD.should have a right attitude towards the problem(E)The literal meaning of philosophy is “love of wisdom”. But this meaning does not tell us very much . Unlike the other discilines（学科）,philosopjy cannot e defined by what you study ,because it si actually unlimited. Anything can be the subject matter of philosophy:are, history, law, language, literature, mathematics, and in fact, the other academic disciplines are directly related to philosopkhy. For this reason you get a Doctorate（博士学位）of Philosoophy (Ph. D.) in biochemisty, or computer science, or psychology.Two broad sub-fields of philosophy are logic and the history of philosophy. Logic is the science of argument and eritical thinkging . It provides sound methods for distinguishing good from bad reasonign .The history of philosopjy involives the study of major philosophers and perrsiad in the development of philosophy.Of what use is philosophy? First it is useful in educational advancemet . It is necessary for undesrtanding other disciplines. Only philosopjy questiong the nature of the concepts used in a discipline, and its relatin to other disco[;omes. And throught the stdy of philosophy, one develops sound methods of research and analysis that can be applied to any field.There are a number of gengral uses of philosophy. It strengthens one’s ability to solve problesm, to communieate, to organize ideas and issues, to presuade, and to takewhat is the most important form a large quamity of data. These general uses are of great benefit in the career firld, not necessarily ofr boutaining onej’s first job after graduation ,but for preparing for posttions of responsibility, managemetn and leadershin later on. It is very shor sihte after all, to take a course of studies only for the purpose of getting one’s first job. The useful skills developed throught thestudy of philosophy hav significang long-term benefits in canreer advancement. No other discipline systematically follows the ideals of wisdom, leadership, and capacity to reasolve human conflict.72.Accprdomg to Paragraph 1. philosophy can best be described as the study of .A.social sciencesB.natural sciencesC.both social and natural sciencesD.the subject matter of politics73.With the study of philosophy, you can .A.become a great leaderB.succeed in everythingC.find a good job soon after graduationD.make progress in your career development74.According to the passage, which of the follwing statements is TRUE?A.Philosophy is an independent discipline.B.Logic helps you to become a better thinker.C.The study of philosophy brings you immediate benefits.D.The meaning of philosophy is too limited to define.75.From the passage, we can concludeA.not all the subjects have to do with philosophyB.a person will get a Ph. D. if he/she studies philosophyC.philosophy can be helpful for the study of any other subjectsD.philosophy is the only solution to all the probleras in the world第二卷（非选择题35分）第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）第一节：对话填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分）阅读下面对话，掌握其大意，并根据所给字母的提示，在标有题号的右边横线上写出一个英语单词的完整、正确形式，使对话通顺.Travel Agent——T; Paul——PT:Good afternoon, how can I help you?P:Hi, I want to (76) b a room and some tickets for the summer holiday.T:Where are you going?P:Sydney.T:And how many people will be going?P:Four.

2007年全国硕士研究生考试英语真题及答案2
Section II Reading ComprehensionPart ADirections：Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A， B， C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. （40 points）Text 1If you were to examine the birth certificates of every soccer player in 2006's World Cup tournament you would most likely find a noteworthy quirk elite soccer later months. If you then examined the European national youth teams that feed the World Cup and professional ranks， you would find this strange phenomenon to be even more pronounced.What might account for this strange phenomenon？ Here are a few guesses： a） certain astrological signs confer superior soccer skills. b） winter-born bathes tend to have higher oxygen capacity which increases soccer stamina. c） soccer mad parents are more likely to conceive children in springtime at the annual peak of soccer mania. d） none of the above. Anders Ericsson， a 58-year-old psychology professor at Florida State University， says he believes strongly in “none of the above.” Ericsson grew up in Sweden， and studied nuclear engineering until he realized he realized he would have more opportunity to conduct his own research if he switched to psychology. His first experiment nearly years ago， involved memory： training a person to hear and then repeat a random series of numbers. “With the first subject. after about 20 hours of training his digit span had risen from 7 to 20，” Ericsson recalls. “He kept improving， and after about 200 hours of training he had risen to over 80 numbers.”This success coupled with later research showing that memory itself as not genetically determined， led Ericsson to conclude that the act of memorizing is more of a cognitive exercise than an intuitive one. In other words， whatever inborn differences two people may exhibit in their abilities to memorize those differences are swamped by how well each person “encodes” the information. And the best way to learn how to encode information meaningfully， Ericsson determined， was a process known as deliberate practice. Deliberate practice entails more than simply repeating a task. Rather， it involves setting specific goals， obtaining immediate feedback and concentrating as much on technique as on outcome.Ericsson and his colleagues have thus taken to studying expert performers in a wide range of pursuits， including soccer. They gather all the data they can， not just predominance statistics and biographical details but also the results of their own lavatory experiments with high achievers. Their work makes a rather startling assertion： the trait we commonly call talent is highly overrated. Or， put another way， expert performers whether in memory or surgery， ballet or computer programming are nearly always made， not born.[410 words]21. The birthday phenomenon found among soccer players is mentioned to [A] stress the importance of professional training. [B] spotlight the soccer superstars in the World Cup. [C] introduce the topic of what males expert performance. [D] explain why some soccer teams play better than others.22. The word “mania” （Line 4， Paragraph 2） most probably means [A] fun. [B] craze. [C] hysteria. [D] excitement.23. According to Ericsson good memory [A] depends on meaningful processing of information. [B] results from intuitive rather than cognitive exercises. [C] is determined by genetic rather than psychological factors. [D] requires immediate feedback and a high degree of concentration.24. Ericsson and his colleagues believe that [A] talent is a dominating factor for professional success. [B] biographical data provide the key to excellent performance. [C] the role of talent tends to be overlooked. [D] high achievers owe their success mostly to nurture.25. Which of the following proverbs is closest to the message the text tries to convey？ [A] “Faith will move mountains.” [B] “One reaps what one sows.” [C] “Practice makes perfect.” [D] “Like father， like son”Text 2 For the past several years， the Sunday newspaper supplement Parade has featured a column called “Ask Marilyn.”People are invited to query Marilyn vos Savant， who at age 10 had tested at a mental level of someone about 23 years old； that gave her an IQ of 228-the highest score ever recorded. IQ tests ask you to complete verbal and visual analogies，to envision paper after it has been folded and cut， and to deduce numerical sequences， among other similar tasks. So it isa bit confusing when vos Savant fields such queries from the average Joe （whose IQ is 100） as， What's the difference between love and fondness？ Or what is the nature of luck and coincidence？ It's not obvious how the capacity to visualize objects and to figure out numerical patterns suits one to answer questions that have eluded some of the best poets and philosophers. Clearly， intelligence encompasses more than a score on a test. Just what does it means to be smart？ How much of intelligence can be specified， and how much can we learn about it from neurology， genetics， computer science and other fields？ The defining term of intelligence in humans still seems to be the IQ score， even though IQ tests are not given as often as they used to be. The test comes primarily in two forms： the Stanford-Binet Intelligence Scale and the Wechsler Intelligence Scales （both come in adult and children's version）。

Answer the questions below each passage by choosing A, B, C and D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1.Passage OnePrior to the 20th century, many languages with small numbers of speakers survived for centuries. The increasingly interconnected modern world makes it much more difficult for small language communities to live in relative isolation, a key factor in language maintenance and preservation.It remains to be seen whether the world can maintain its linguistic and cultural diversity in the centuries ahead. Many powerful forces appear to work against it :population growth, which pushes migrant populations into the world’s last isolated locations; mass tourism; global telecommunications and mass media; and the spread of gigantic global corporations. All of these forces appear to signify a future in which the language of advertising, popular culture, and consumer products become similar. Already English and a few other major tongues have emerged as global languages of commerce and communication. For many of the world’s peoples, learning one of these languages is viewed as the key to education, economic opportunity, and a better way of life.Only about 3,000 languages now in use are expected to survive the coming century. Are most of the rest doomed in the century after that?Whether most of these languages survive will probably depend on how strongly cultural groups wish to keep their identity alive through a native language. To do so will require an emphasis on bilingualism（mastery of two languages）. Bilingual speakers could use their own language in smaller spheres---at home, among friends, in community settings---and a global language at work, in dealings with government, and in commercial spheres. In this way, many small languages could sustain their cultural and linguistic integrity alongside global languages,rather than yield to the homogenizing（同化的）forces of globalization.Ironically, the trend of technological innovation that has threatened minority languages could also help save them. For example, some experts predict that computer software translation tools will one day permit minority language speakers to browse the Internet using their native tongues. Linguists are currently using computer—aided learning tools to teach a variety of threatened languages.For many endangered languages, the line between revival and death is extremely thin. Language is remarkably resilient（有活力的）,however. It is not just a tool for communicating, but also a powerful way of separating different groups, or of demonstrating group identity. Many indigenous（原生的，土著的）communities have shown that it is possible to live in the modern world while reclaiming their unique identities through language.41.Minority languages can be best preserved in __________.A．an increasingly interconnected worldB．maintaining small numbers of speakersC．relatively isolated language communitiesD．following the tradition of the 20th century42.According to Paragraph 2, that the world can maintain its linguistic diversity in the future is _______.A．uncertain B．unrealistic C．foreseeable D．definite43.According to the author, bilingualism can help_________.A．small languages become acceptable in work placesB．homogenize the world’s languages and culturesC．global languages reach home and community settingsD．speakers maintain their linguistic and cultural identityputer technology is helpful for preserving minority languages in that it_________.A．makes learning a global language unnecessaryB．facilitates the learning and using of those languagesC．raises public awareness of saving those languagesD．makes it easier for linguists to study those languages45.In the author’s view, many endangered languages are________.A．remarkably well-kept in this modern worldB．exceptionally powerful tools of communicationC．quite possible to be revived instead of dying outD．a unique way of bringing different groups togetherPassage TwoEveryone，it seems，has a health problem。
