Indeed, a round-the-world balloon trip is widely regarded as the (1)challenge. One well-known adventurer, David Hemplemann-Adams would not agree, however. Recently, he became the first man to (2)the North Pole in a hot-air balloon, a more significant achievement in his eyes. Given that the distance and altitudes (3) are comparatively modest, you might wonder why the trip from Canada to the Pole, should present such a challenge.Part of the (4)was that such a flight had not even been attempted for over a century. In those days, such expeditions were huge events, with a nation's pride resting on their success, and so resources were committed to them. Although he eventually managed to secure a substantial sponsorship (5) from an insurance company, Hemplemann-Adams had the added challenge of having to (6)sufficient funds for his trip.Then, of course, he had to face major survival concerns, such as predicting the weather (7)and coping with the dangerously low temperatures. But most challenging of all was the incredibly complex problem of navigation. As the earth's magnetic field gets stronger, only the most sophisticated of satellite-linked navigation systems can (8)that one has got to thePole. Without them, the chances of getting anywhere near it are extremely (9), not to mention an even greater problem that (10)onHemplemann-Adams1 mind: getting back!1.

A) thin B) slight C) slim D) tight10. A) pushed B) stressed C) pressed D) weighed PART IV READING COMPREHENSION (30 points)SECTION A Multiple Choice Questions (10 points / 1 point each) Directions: Read the following passages and choose the best answer to each of the following questions. Put your answers in the corresponding space on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions 1 to 5 are based on the following passage.If you know exactly what you want, the best route to a job is to get specialized training. A recent survey shows that companies like graduates in such fields as business and health care who can go to work immediately with very little on-the-job training.That is especially true of booming fields that are challenging for workers. At Comelfs School of Hotel Administration, for example, bachelor's degree graduates get an average of four or five job offers and plenty of chances for rapid advancement. Large companies, especially, like a background of formal education coupled with work experience.But in the long run, too much specialization does not pay off. Business, which hasbeen flooded with MBAs, no longer considers the degree an automatic stamp of approval. The MBA may open doors and command a higher salary initially, but the impact of a degree washes out after five years.As further evidence of the erosion of corporate faith in specialized degrees, Michigan State's Scheetz cites a pattern in corporate hiring practices. Although companies tend to take on specialists as new hires, they often seek out generalists for middle and upper-level management. "They want someone who isn't constrained by nuts and bolts to look at the big picture/9 says Scheetz.This sounds suspiciously like a formal statement that you approve of the liberal-arts graduate. Time and again labor-market analysts mention a need for talents that liberal-arts majors are assumed to have: writing and communication skills, organizational skills, open-mindedness and adaptability, and the ability to analyze and solve problems. David Birch claims he does not hire anybody with an MBA or an engineering degree, "I hire only liberal-arts people because they have a less-than-canned way of doing things/9 says Birch. Liberal-arts means an academically thorough and strict program that includes literature, history, mathematics, economics, science, human behaviorplus a computer course or two. With that under your belt, you can feel free to specialize, “A liberal-arts degree coupled with an MBA or some other technical training is a very good combination in the marketplace,99 says Scheetz.1.What kinds of people are in high demand on the job market?A)People with special training in engineering.B)Students with a bachelor's degree in humanities.C)People with an MBA degree from top universities.D)People with formal schooling plus work experience.2.By saying ..but the impact of a degree washes out after five years" (Line3.Paragraph 3), the author means.A)in five people will forget about the degree the MBA graduates have gotB)MBA programs will not be as popular in five years1 time as they are nowC)an MBA degree does not help promotion to managerial positionsD)most MBA programs fail to provide students with a solid foundation3.According to Scheetz's statement (Lines 4-5. Para. 4), companies preferA)people who have received training in mechanicsB)people who have a strategic mindC)people who are talented in fine artsD)people who are ambitious and aggressive4.David Birch claims that he only hires liberal-arts people because.A)they have attended special programs in managementB)they can stick to established ways of solving problemsC)they are more capable of handling changing situationsD)they are thoroughly trained in a variety of specialized fields5.Which of the following statements does the author support?A)Generalists will outdo specialists in management.B)On-thejob training is, in the long run, less costly.C)Formal schooling is less important than job training.D)Specialists are more expensive to hire than generalists.Passage TwoQuestions 6 to 10 are based on the following passage,For most thinkers since the Greek philosophers, it was self-evident that there is something called human nature, something that constitutes the essence of man. There were various views about what constitutes it, but there was agreement that such an essence exists ― that is to say, that there is something by virtue of which man is man. Thus man was defined as a rational being, as a social animal, ananimal that can make tools, or a symbol-making animal.More recently, this traditional view has begun to be questioned. One reason for this change was the increasing emphasis given to the historical approach to man. An examination of the history of humanity suggested that man in our epoch is so different from man in previous times that it seemed unrealistic to assume that men in every age have had in common something that can be called "human nature." The historical approach was reinforced, particularly in the United States, by studies in the field of cultural anthropology ( 人类学).The study of primitive peoples has discovered such a diversity of customs, values, feelings, and thoughts that many anthropologists arrived at the concept that man is bom as a blank sheet of paper on which each culture writes its text. Another factor contributing to the tendency to deny the assumption of a fixed human nature was that the concept has so often been abused as a shield behind which the most inhuman acts are committed. In the name of human nature, for example, Aristotle and most thinkers up to the eighteenth century defended slavery. Or in order to prove the rationality and necessity of the capitalist form of society, scholars have tried to make a case for acquisitiveness, competitiveness, and selfishness as innate (天生的)human traits. Popularly, one refers cynically to "human nature" in accepting the inevitability of such undesirable human behavior as greed, murder, cheating and lying.Another reason for skepticism about the concept of human nature probably lies in the influence of evolutionary thinking. Once man came to be seen as developing in the process of evolution, the idea of a substance which is contained in his essence seemed untenable. Yet I believe it is precisely from an evolutionary standpoint that we can expect new insight into the problem of the nature of man.6.The traditional view of "human nature" was strongly challenged by.A)the historical approach to manB)the emergence of the evolutionary theoryC)new insight into human behaviorD)the philosophical analysis of slavery7.According to the passage, anthropologists believe that human beings.A)have some traits in commonB)are born with diverse culturesC)are born without a fixed natureD)change their characters as they grow up8.The author mentioned Aristotle, a great ancient thinker, in order to.A)emphasize that he contributed a lot to defining the concept of "human nature"B)show that the concept of "human nature" was used to justify social evilsC)prove that he had a profound influence on the concept of "human nature"D)support the idea that some human traits are acquired9.The word "untenable" (Line 4) in the last paragraph of the passage most probably means.A)invaluable C) changeableB)imaginable D) indefensible10.Most philosophers believed that human nature.A)is the quality distinguishing man from other animalsB)consists of competitiveness and selfishnessC)is something partly innate and partly acquiredD)consists of rationality and undesirable behaviorSECTION B Short Answer Questions (12 points)Directions: Read the passage below and answer the following questions in one or two complete sentences on the Answer Sheet. Your answer should be expressed in your own words and not those of the passage. Otherwise you won 7 get any points.The British may have long been a nation of shopkeepers but they are coming late to the business of tourism. For the past century it has been they who have done the touring while their own hotels have slumbered in atmosphere and inefficiency and even the pubs have closed before eleven. Now, somewhat to their bewilderment, they are having to act hosts to a vast throng of guests, who, with dollars, francs and marks in their pockets and handbags, are the most successful invaders since the Normans and considerably more welcome. They come to enjoy the antique and traditional but are often less enchanted by the accommodation and catering, which may share the antiquity. At last, even the surprised tourism industry is beginning to open its eyes. Unfortunately it sees only insoluble problems.For very many years London has been a business center with hotel accommodation mainly for visiting businessmen together with other well-to-do travelers and completely inadequate for the swarms of short-stay tourists landing at Heathrow or disembarking at Dover. Some new luxury hotels have soared skywards and a fair number of Victorian houses have been combined to form "private hotels^, of standards from the comfortable to the repellent. Most hotels are expensive一beyond the means of the young teacher or secretary from abroad. The student on holiday fares worst and often finds his accommodation under the reliable night sky. Every morning the guard is changed at Buckingham Palace with faultless precision and gay military music. The average spectator, squeezed among thousands of others, can glimpse an occasional bearskin and touch of scarlet and at least enjoy the music. Suggestions for a second performance later in the day have been scotched by the guard's acid comment, 'We're doing a job, not acting as performing seals.9 It has also been suggested that visitors should be whisked in a given time in groups through Westminster Abbey to relieve the congestion there and the same would apply to the equally-crowded St Paul's and the Tower. A vast football crowd ambles along Oxford Street and surges through the shops there, so that the Londoner leaves the field free for provincials, Americans, Australians and a babel of exotic tongues.As a second Westminster Abbey is impracticable and the glamour of (in fact) a slightly seedy Oxford Street remains unrivalled, this problem associated with tourism is indeed insoluble. Tourists are reminded of the charm of the West Country, the romance of Scotland, the historical interest of Stratford, Canterbury and Cambridge but to the once-in-lifetime visitor from Kansas City or Adelaide, London will obviously remain the three-day magnet. Other European capitals probably share these problems, and the homeward-bound traveler must revel in swinging his arms, expanding his chest and having time and space to examine and actually enjoy his surroundings.Questions:1.How has the tourist situation changed in Britain recently? (2 points)2.Why are the tourists welcome? (1 point)3.Why are the tourists 'less enchanted by the accommodation9? (1 point)4.Why is the tourist industry 'surprised9? (1 point)5.What is suggested about the shape of the new luxury hotels? (1 point)6.What difficulties in finding accommodation face many visitors to London? (1 point)7.Why do people have difficulty in enjoying the Changing of the Guard? (1 point)8.What suggestion has been made about how to reduce overcrowding in Westminster abbey? (1 point)9.Why do Londoners avoid Oxford Street? (1 point)10.Why does the homeward-bound traveler revel in "swinging his arms and extending his chest? (2 points)SECTION C Matching Questions (8 points / 1 point each)Directions: Look at the statements below and the company news reports. Whichnews report (A, B, C or D) does each statement 1-8 refer to? For each sentence 1-8, mark one letter (A f B, C, or D) on the Answer Sheet. You will need to use some of the letters more than once.1.There are various types of meeting rooms available here.2.This conference centre is well known for the quality of its food.3.Discounts are available for some clients.4.There is someone on duty here at all times.5.The very latest conference equipment is available here.6.This conference centre now has a traditional atmosphere.7.Secretarial support is available at no extra charge.8.The centre is willing to give a refund if a client is not completely satisfied.ASherwood House is only a stone's throw away from the city centre and yet provides a stress-free and relaxing atmosphere for your business meetings.

Neighbors are now legally entitled to report “inappropriate” noises coming from your apartment. The city of San Francisco encourages hairdressers to report domestic violence if they find suspicious bumps or scratches on their clients’ heads.

Why does the idea of progress loom so large in the modern world ? Surely because progress of a particular kind is actually taking place around us and is becoming more and more manifest. Although mankind has undergone no general improvement in intelligence or morality, it has made extraordinary progress in the accumulation of knowledge. Knowledge began to increase as soon as the thoughts of one individual could be communicated to another by means of speech. With the invention of writing, a great advance was made, for knowledge could then be not only communicated but also stored …. What is called “modern civilization”is not the result of a balanced development of all man’s nature, but of accumulated knowledge applied to practical life. The problem now facing humanity is: What is going to be done with all this knowledge ? As is so often pointed out, knowledge is a two-edged weapon which can be used equally for good or for evil. It is now being used indifferently for both. Could any spectacle, for instance, be more grimly than that of gunners using science to shatter men’s bodies while, close at hand, surgeons use it to restore them ? We have to ask ourselves very seriously what will happen if this twofold use of knowledge, with its ever-increasing power, continues.

相依为命
一个小小的古镇，一条小小的河，一座小小的石桥，一株500年的古樟。
石桥亦是长寿的，建于200年前还是300年前，不清楚了。
反正它就造在古樟边，两条树根犹如两根钢梁，一直架到河对岸。
这桥就变成了名副其实的“石木结构”，而究竟是先有桥，桥搭过了岸，还是树根先伸展到对岸，石桥顺势而建，也不清楚了。
记忆中清楚的是，上世纪60年代，曾经有人要砍了树劈成木材烧火炼钢的，因为它与桥连成了一体，怕树砍了，桥也塌了，就逃过了一劫。
上世纪80年代，有人建古桥博物馆，出高价想把古桥移走。
动手时才发现，所有石头的缝隙都爬满了粗粗细细的树根，离开大树，这座桥就变成了一堆毫无意义的石头，根本无法复原。
就又逃过了一劫。
小镇位于经济发达的沿海地区，上世纪90年代，这一带的古镇，随着人们钱袋鼓胀，都旧貌换新颜。
小镇也想大动干戈的，但心疼这祖宗传下来的桥和树，更怕轻举妄动坏了风水，想来想去定不好方案，期间还拒绝了一些投资者，一拖再拖，却赶上了古民居修复保护的黄金时代。
如今这里成了著名的风景点，500年古樟冠盖青葱，古桥沧桑而又生机勃勃，小镇上民居保存完好，最难得的是，民风淳朴、天然、不贪婪，其乐融融。
而这一切都是相互依存，相依为命的。
先是桥保住了树，再是树保护了桥，最后是桥与树保住了古镇。
要说究竟是人保住了环境，还是环境保住了人，也说不太清楚。
看到的人都说，这是个奇迹。

（参考答案和评分标准）
参考译文：
1.
一个人的思想一旦能够用言语传达给别人，知识就开始增长了。
随着书写方法的发明，知识就进步了一大步，因为那时知识不仅能传递，而且能储藏了。
所谓“现代文明”不是全人类的天性平衡发展的结果，而是所积累的知识运用于实际生活的结果。
现在面临人类的问题是：怎样来运用这些知识？有人常常指出：知识是两重性的武器，可以用来造福，同样可以用来为害。
现在，人们在毫无差别地把知识运用于这两方面。
例如：炮手用科学炸毁人体而外科医生却就在附近用科学使其恢复健康，还有比这更令人害怕的怪诞情景吗？我们必须认真地问我们自己，如果知识的这种双重性的威力与日俱增，将来会发生什么呢？

2．Nowadays, the small town has become a famous scenic spot. There, with a lush green crown, stands the 500-year-old camphor tree. The old stone bridge, after all these changes, remains intact and perfect. And the civilian buildings are preserved well. Most fortunate of all, the town dwellers are retaining a simple and natural lifestyle. What they desire is but a cheerful and harmonious life.
All these things are themselves interdependent. First of all, the bridge protected the tree from being felled. Then the tree saved the bridge from being torn down. Finally, the bridge and the tree together have helped preserve the town. Whether the people have protected the environment of the place , or vice versa, I just cannot tell for sure.
Now, every visitor to the small town says : it’s a miracle.
