In June his party had returned to office with a huge majority. In September two planes were flown into the World Trade Centre in New York. The speech appeared to mark his transition from the insecure prime minister to a visionary and a statesman, determined to change the world. The most memorable passage was his declaration on Africa. "The state of Africa", he told us, "is a scar on the conscience of the world. But if the world as a community focused on it, we could heal it. And if we don't, it will become deeper and angrier."(2) This being so, I would like to ask Britain's visionary prime minister to explain what he thinks he was doing at the G8 summit in France. A few weeks ago President Jacques Chirac did something unprecedented. After years of opposing any changes to European farm subsidies（补贴）, he approached the US government to suggest that Europe would stop subsidising its exports of food to Africa if America did the same.(3) His offer was significant, not only because it represented a major policy reversal for France, but also because it provided an opportunity to abandon the perpetual agricultural arms race between the European Union and the US, in which each side seeks to offer more subsidies than the other. The West's farm subsidies, as Blair has pointed out, are a disaster for the developing world, and particularly for Africa.(4) Farming accounts for some 70% of employment on that continent, and most of the farmers there are desperately poor. Part of the reason is that they are unfairly undercut by the subsidised products dumped on their markets by exporters from the US and the EU. Chirac' s proposals addressed only part of the problem, but theycould have begun the process of dismantling the system that does so much harm to the West's environment and the lives of some of the world's most vulnerable people.(5) We might, then, have expected Blair to have welcomed Chirac's initiative. Instead the prime minister has single-handedly destroyed it. The reason will by now be familiar. George Bush, who receives substantial political support from US agro-industrialists, grain exporters and pesticide manufacturers, was not prepared to make the concessions required to match Chirac's offer. If the EU, and in particular the UK, had supported France, the moral pressure on Bush might have been irresistible. But as soon as Blair made it clear that he would not support Chirac's plan, the initiative was dead.(6) So, thanks to Mr Blair and his habit of doing whatever Bush tells him to, Africa will continue to suffer. Several of the food crises from which that continent is now suffering are made worse by the plight of its own farmers. The underlying problem is that the rich nations set the global trade rules. The current world trade agreement was supposed to have prevented the EU and the US from subsidising their exports to developing nations. But, as the development agency Oxfam has shown, the agreement contains so many loopholes that it permits the two big players simply to call their export subsidies by a different name.(7) So, for example, the EU has, in several farm sectors, stopped paying farmers according to the amount they produce and started instead to give them direct grants, based on the amount of land they own and how much they produced there in the past. The US has applied the2013年1月全国高等教育自学考试高级英语真题(四)2013-03-11 14:24:07 来源: 作者: 【大中小】浏览:1745次评论:0条me formula, and added a couple of tricks of its own. One of these is called "export credit": the state reduces the cost of US exports by providing cheap insurance for the exporters. These credits, against which Chirac was hoping to trade the European subsidies, are worth some 7.7bn to US grain sellers. In combination with other tricks, they ensure that American exporters can undercut the world price for wheat and maize by between 10% and 16%, and the world price for cotton by 40%. But the ugliest of its hidden export subsidies is its use of aid as a means of penetrating the markets of poorer nations.While the other major donors give money, which the World Food Programme can use to buy supplies in local markets, thus helping farmers while feeding the starving, the US insists on sending its own produce, stating that this programme is "designed to develop . " and expand commercial outlets for US products".(8) The result is that the major recipients are not the nations in greatest need, but the nations that can again in the words of the US department of agriculture,. "demonstrate the potential to become commercial markets" for US farm products. This is why, for example, the Philippines currently receives more US food aid than Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia and Zimbabwe put together, all of which, unlike the Philippines, are currently suffering from serious food shortages.(9) But US policy also ensures that food aid is delivered just when it is needed least. Oxfam has produced a graph plotting the amount of wheat given to developing nations by the US against world prices. When the price falls the volume of "aid" rises. This is as clear a demonstration of agricultural dumping as you could ask for. The very programme that is meant to help the poor is in fact undermining them.(10) So, when faced with a choice between saving Africa and saving George Bush from a mild diplomatic embarrassment, Blair has, as we could have predicted,done as his master bids. The scar on the conscience of the world has just become deeper and angrier.II. In this section, there are ten incomplete statements or questions, followed by four choices marked A, B, C and D.

In one study, for instance, teachers gave lower grades to essays supposedly written by boys named Hubert and Elmer than to the very same essays when they were credited to boys with more popular names. Another study found that girls with unpopular names did worse on IQ and achievement tests than girls with more appealing names. So IQ and achievement tests are important and necessary in studying names.Ⅵ.写信1.

英语写作自考真题2013年10月(总分100, 做题时间90分钟)Ⅰ.Supply the missing paragraphThe following passage is incomplete with one body paragraph missing. Study the passage carefully and write the missing paragraph in about 100 words. Make sure that you tone and diction are in unity with the passage provided.1.Say No to Blind Optimism"Is the glass half full or half empty?" This question is often asked to determine whether someone is an optimist or a pessimist. In my view, even though we need to see the glass half full, we cannot deny the fact that the glass is also half empty. Having a healthy proportion of expectations makes us more realistic. Blind optimism, however, may foster delusions, result in frustrations and spoil relationships.We all long-for accomplishments, but sometimes we overstress the positive outcome of our effort and waste our time with glorious plans that will never work. We indulge ourselves in delusions and impractical dreams. We fail to see that blind optimism only gives us false promises and clouds our sense of judgment. Ambition without clear directions cannot lead to a victorious experience. We need to understand that wishful thinking and delusions won't work.______________________________________________________Balanced optimism helps us to develop healthy relationships whereas blind optimism destroys them. One of the reasons for shortlived friendships is that we tend to expect too much of our friends. However, they may not always live up to our expectations. This gives rise to disappointment and misunderstanding. Friendships or relationships consequently turn sour. Some relationships may be seriously affected, with all parties experiencing much pain. A more realistic outlook helps us to understand human limitations, show more consideration for others and prevent excess expectations.To sum up, blind optimism does more harm than good and should be discarded. Saying no to blind optimism means we can fly but we fly with the safest bet, with the parachute, so that we don't drop hard. It proves our ability to accept weaknesses and strive for the best.It gives us second options in our lives and alleviates the pains and disappointments that life imposes on us. This holistic attitude, accepting both positive and negative sides, will make us stronger and more mature. After all, a lotus is a beautiful flower that blossoms out of the mud.SSS_TEXT_QUSTIⅡ.Write an outlineRead the following passage carefully **pose a "topic outline" forit.2.Styles of Dress as Reflections of Social ConditionsSomething that becomes very apparent when we study the topic of fashion is that clothes and style are related to so much more than merely an individual's appearance. For thousands of years, fashion and style have been primary indicators about a person's social status, sexuality, wealth, individuality, and overall personality attributes.In the 20th century alone, each decade has been marked by distinctly different manners for dres "hippie." With deeper consideration, however, these differing fashion styles can be viewed as representative of the related social conditions occurring at the time.As stated by Pasacoe, "The fashion of the 1920's reflected the Jazz Age perfectly. It was made for fast automobiles and Charleston dance. For the first time in western fashion the knee was socially acceptable." Although there are many theories regarding what causes fashion to change, the fact that social climate is reflected instyles of dress has a great deal of support. Perhaps the reason why so much change occurred in women's dress in the early decades of the century is that so many changes occurred regarding women's roles and fights within that same time frame.Another decade in which fashion was strongly indicative of the underlying social conditions is the turbulent 1960's. One of the most noted developments accredited to this decade is the introduction of the miniskirt. Many social historians relate the introduction of the miniskirt to the introduction of the birth control pill. Women became sexually liberated and the "free love" era began. These miniskirts came to symbolize the new liberation for women and the social climate of the decade. As stated in Vogue at the end of the decade, "The length of your skirt is how you feel this moment."Towards the end of the 1960's, younger generations were rejecting the establishment and rejecting the idea of high fashion along with it. Students wore long hair, faded denim jeans, and flamboyant patterns. Many **bat jackets and surplus shirts to anti-war rallies. As Hoeymaker stated, "By the end of the decade, cheap, flamboyant clothes became expensive designer labels. The hippie style became high fashion; in fact 'anti-fashion' became the biggestfashion of all." In this case, clothes became a form of protest.Overall, there are countless examples of how fashion is influenced by the social climate of the times. Over the past thousands of years, the socially "appropriate" styles of dress for men and women have varied tremendously. Regardless of what exactly constituted "stylish" fashion during any given time period, one thing that remains constant is that fashion has always been a significant aspect of one's life and the time in which they lived.Sentence OutlineSSS_TEXT_QUSTIⅢ.Compose an essay3.Some people enjoy playing sports individually while others love to play in groups.

D．abrupt15．He determined who would go first with a coin ______．A．toss B．flingC．twist D．throwRead the following passage carefully and complete the succeeding three items II，III，IV.To Kill or Not to Kill(1)Capital punishment has been in effect since the 1600’s．However, in 1972 the U．S．Supreme Court ruled that the death penalty was cruel and unusual punishment，which was unconstitutional according to the Eighth Amendment． It was public opinion that the current methods of execution，hanging， electrocution，and facing a firing squad，were too slow and painful upon the person to be executed．The U．S．Supreme Court reversed this decision when a cleaner way to bring about death was found in 1976．This cleaner way is death by lethal injection，which is quick and painless if administered right．(2)Many people have argued for and against capital punishment since it was reinstituted．Some say the death penalty is what the criminal deserves while others object to it because death is irreversible．I feel the death penalty is a good form of justice because only about 250 people a year get the death penalty and they are guilty beyond a doubt and don’t deserve living with the possibility of parole．(3)The sentencing judge or jury are ordered by the Supreme Court to look for specific aggravating and mitigating factors in deciding which convicted murderers should be sentenced to death．S ome of these mitigating factors are the defendant’s motivation, character, personal history, and most of all remorse．Every year approximately 250 new offenders are added to death row．In 1994 there were 2，850 persons awaiting execution．Yet no more than thirty-eight people have been. .专业知识分享. .executed a year since 1976．This is a ridiculously low number compared to 199 persons executed in 1935．(4)The reason for this slow execution rate is the process of appeals．From sentencing to execution there is about a seven-to-eight-year wait．The convicts’ cases are reviewed by the state courts and through the federal courts．With all this opportunity for the case to be turned over or the sentence to be changed it is almost impossible for an innocent person to be executed．Only two people have been proved innocent after their execution in the United States．These wrongful deaths occurred in 1918 and 1949．Since then the justice system has undergonea lot o f fine tuning making this extremely unlikely to day.(5)One argument against the death penalty is that it costs less to imprison someone for life than to execute them．This is a good point that has a 1ot of impact on a lot of people’s views regarding capital punishment since they are the ones footing the bill．through taxes．I personally would not mind paying the little bit extra just so I know for sure that there’s one 1ess murderer on our planet．If the death penalty was done away with，prisoners who should have been executed will be mixed in with other inmates．It would be possible and not too unlikely for them to kill another inmate or possibly a prison guard．If someone is lined up for execution then they more than likely deserve it．They have caused a great deal of grief to the family and friends of the victim or victims and it seems like the only way justice could be served is for the criminal to die.(6)For the person to simply go to jail seems unfair．There they will eat three mealsa day, get to watch cable TV and befriend other inmates．They live a pretty decent 1ife in prison and they don’t deserve it．Out of the fifty states in the United States 37 have and use capital punishment．Out of the same fifty states only 18 have 1ife imprisonment without parole．In the other 32 states a person who should’ve been executed canb e released after as 1ittle as 20 years in prison．(7)There are certain standards that are followed in giving out capital punishment．The defendant can not be insane, and the real or criminal intent must be present．Also，minors very rarely receive the death penalty because they are. .专业知识分享. .not fully mature and might not know the consequences of their actions．Finally the mentally retarded are very seldom executed．The reason for not executing the retarded is that they often have difficulty defending themselves in court, have problems remembering details，locating witnesses，and testifying credibly on their own behalf．(8)If capital punishment were carried out more it would prove to be the crime deterrent it was partly intended to be．Most criminals would think twice before committing murder if they knew their own 1ives are at stake．As it turns out，as very few people are executed，so the death penalty is not a satisfactory deterrent．During highly publicized death penalty cases the homicide rate is found to go down but it goes back up when the case is over．(9)Thomas Edison，a famous scientist and American hero，helped develop and extensively promoted the electric chair．The electric chair was a popular method of execution from the 1930s to the 1970s．The death penalty is a punishment that will remain active for a long time in the future，even with all the criticism．It is an ancient way of dealing with extremely serious offences that plague our country today．Hopefully the appeals process will be shortened，but remain effective，so more criminals can be executed，making prospective criminals think twice．II．In this section，there are ten incomplete statements or questions，followed by four choices marked A，B，C and D．Choose the best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on your Answer Sheet.(20 points，2 points for each) 16．The death sentence was instituted some ______ years ago．A．200 B．300C．400 D．5 0017．According to the first paragraph，people generally thought that ______．A．lethal injection was painful but quickB．death penalty was cruel and therefore should be abolishedC．facing a firing squad was a cleaner way for capital punishmentD．the methods then used to bring about death were slow and painful. .专业知识分享. .18．A method of execution that is not mentioned in this article is ______．A．hanging B．injectionC．decapitation D．electrocution19．Which of the following is closest in meaning to the word “remorse”in Paragraph 3?A．regret B．rebellionC．revulsion D．recklessness20．Two persons put to death，one in 1918 and the other in 1949，were found to have been _____．A．insane B．wrongly killedC．mentally retarded D．executed without trial21．The expression “footing the bill”in Paragraph 5 can be best replaced by ______．A．paying the cost B．asking for paymentC．causing the expenses D．refunding the expenses22．In the passage，the author implies that ______．A．more than 15 states in the United States do not use capital punishmentB．1ife imprisonment without parole is a heavier sentence than capital punishment C．in the United States those who should’ve been executed 1ive a miserable life in prisonD．in the United States a person who should’ve been executed might be set free after only 20 years’ imprisonment23．The expression “at stake” in Paragraph 8 means ______．A．at risk B．at issueC．in a mess D．out of control24．The author does not mention that ______．A．capital punishment faces a lot of criticismB．the death penalty will continue to be carried outC．extremely serious offences are troubling the United StatesD．the death penalty is a modern way of handling atrocious crimes25．It is obvious that the author of this article ______．. .专业知识分享. .A．does not object to abolishing capital punishmentB．shows sympathy to those guilty of unpardonable evilC．is in favor of sentencing those committing grave crimes to deathD．believes that many of those condemned to death do not deserve their punishment非选择题部分注意事项：用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能答在试题卷上。
