Mark youranswers on ANSWER SHEET 1.(40 points)Text 1Homework has never beenterribly popular with students and even many parents, but in recent years ithas been particularly scorned. School districts across the country, mostrecently Los Angeles Unified, are revising their thinking on his educationalritual. Unfortunately, L.A. Unified has produced an inflexible policy whichmandates that with the exception of some advanced courses, homework may nolonger count for more than 10% of a student’s academic grade.This rule is meant toaddress the difficulty that students from impoverished or chaotic homes mighthave in completing their homework. But the policy is unclear and contradictory.Certainly, no homework should be assigned that students cannot do withoutexpensive equipment. But if the district is essentially giving a pass tostudents who do not do their homework because of complicated family lives, itis going riskily close to the implication that standards need to be lowered forpoor children.District administratorssay that homework will still be a pat of schooling: teachers are allowed toassign as much of it as they want. But with homework counting for no more than10% of their grades, students can easily skip half their homework and see veylittle difference on their report cards. Some students might do well on statetests without completing their homework, but what about the students whoperformed well on the tests and did their homework? It is quite possible thatthe homework helped. Yet rather than empowering teachers to find what worksbest for their students, the policy imposes a flat,across-the-board rule.At the same time, thepolicy addresses none of the truly thorny questions about homework. If thedistrict finds homework to be unimportant to its students’ academicachievement, it should move to reduce or eliminate the assignments, not makethem count for almost nothing. Conversely, if homework does nothing to ensurethat the homework students are not assigning more than they are willing toreview and correct.The homework rulesshould be put on hold while the school board, which is responsible for settingeducational policy, looks into the matter and conducts public hearings. It isnot too late for L.A. Unified to do homework right.21.It is implied inparagraph 1 that nowadays homework _____.[A] is receiving morecriticism[B]is no longer aneducational ritual[C]is not required foradvanced courses[D]is gaining morepreferences22. L.A.Unified has madethe rule about homework mainly because poor students _____.[A]tend to have moderateexpectations for their education[B]have asked for adifferent educational standard[C]may have problemsfinishing their homework[D]have voiced theircomplaints about homework23. According toParagraph 3, one problem with the policy is that it may ____.[A]discourage studentsfrom doing homework[B]result in students'indifference to their report cards[C]undermine theauthority of state tests[D]restrict teachers'power in education24. As mentioned inParagraph 4, a key question unanswered about homework is whether ______.[A] it should beeliminated[B]it counts much inschooling[C]it places extraburdens on teachers[D]it is important forgrades25.A suitable title forthis text could be ______.[A]Wrong Interpretationof an Educational Policy[B]A Welcomed Policy forPoor Students[C]Thorny Questionsabout Homework[D]A Faulty Approach toHomeworkText2Pretty in pink: adultwomen do not remember being so obsessed with the color, yet it is pervasive inour young girls’ lives. It is not that pink is intrinsically bad, but it issuch a tiny slice of the rainbow and, though it may celebrate girlhood in oneway, it also repeatedly and firmly fuses girl s’ identity to appearance. Then itpresents that connection, even among two-year-olds, between girls as not only innocentbut as evidence of innocence. Looking around, I despaired at the singular lackof imagination about girls’ lives and interests.Girls’ at traction topink may seem unavoidable, somehow encoded in their DNA, but according to JoPaoletti, an associate professor of American Studies, it is not. Children werenot colour-coded at all until the early 20th century: in the era beforedomestic washing machines all babies wore white as a practical matter, sincethe only way of getting clothes clean was to boil them. What’s more, both boysand girls wore what were thought of as gender-neutral dresses. When nurserycolours were introduced, pink was actually considered the more masculinecolour, a pastel version of red, which was associated with strength. Blue, withits intimations of the Virgin Mary, constancy and faithfulness, symbolisedfemininity. It was not until the mid-1980s, when amplifying age and sexdiffere nces became a dominant children’s marketing strategy, that pink fullycame into its own, when it began to seem inherently attractive to girls, partof what defined them as female, at least for the first few critical years.I had not realised howprofoundly marketing trends dictated our perception of what is natural tokins,including our core beliefs about their psychological development. Take thetoddler. I assumed thatphase was something experts developed after years ofresearch into children’s behaviour: wron g. Turns out, according to Daniel Cook,a historian of childhood consumerism, it was popularised as a marketing trickby clothing manufacturers in the 1930s.Trade publicationscounseled department stores that, in order to increase sales, they shouldcreate“th ird stepping stone” between infant wear and older kids’ clothes. Itwas only after “toddler” became a common shoppers’ term that it evolved into abroadly accepted developmental stage. Splitting kids, or adults, intoever-tinier categories has proved a sure-fire way to boost profits. And one ofthe easiest ways to segment a market is to magnify gender differences – orinvent them where they did not previously exist.26. By saying "itis...the rainbow"(Line 3, Para.1),the author means pink ______.[A]should not be thesole representation of girlhood[B]should not beassociated with girls' innocence[C]cannot explain girls'lack of imagination[D]cannot influencegirls' lives and interests27. According toParagraph 2, which of the following is true of colours?[A]Colours are encodedin girls' DNA.[B]Blue used to beregarded as the colour for girls.[C]Pink used to be aneutral colour in symbolising genders.[D]White is prefered bybabies.28. The author suggeststhat our perception of children's psychological development was much influencedby _____.[A]the marketing ofproducts for children[B]the observation ofchildren's nature[C]researches intochildren's behavior[D]studies of childhoodconsumption29. We may learn fromParagraph 4 that department stores were advised to _____.[A]focus on infant wearand older kids' clothes[B]attach equalimportance to different genders[C]classify consumersinto smaller groups[D]create some commonshoppers' terms30. It can be concludedthat girls' attraction to pink seems to be____.[A] clearly explained bytheir inborn tendency[B]fully understood byclothing manufacturers[C] mainly imposed byprofit-driven businessmen[D]well interpreted bypsychological expertsText 3In 2010. a federal judge shook America's biotech industry to its core. Companies had won patents for isolated DNA for decadesby 2005 some 20% of human genes were parented. But in March 2010 a judge ruled that genes were unpatentable. Executives were violently agitated. The Biotechnology Industry Organisation (BIO), a trade group, as sured members that this was just a “preliminary step” in a longer battle.On July 29th they were relieved, at least temporarily. A federal appeals court overturned the prior decision, ruling that Myriad Genetics could indeed holb patents to two genes that help forecast a woman's risk of breast cancer. The chief executive of Myriad, a company in Utah,said the ruling was a blessing to firms and patients alike.But as companies continue their attempts at personalised medicine, the courts will remain rather busy. The Myriad case itself is probably not over Critics make three main arguments against gene patents: a gene is a product of nature, so it may not be patented; gene patents suppress innovation rather than reward it; and patents' monopolies restrict access to genetic tests such as Myriad's. A growing number seem to st year a federal task-force urged reform for patents related to genetic tests. In October the Department of Justice filed a brief in the Myriad case, arguing that an isolated DNA molecul e “is no less a product of nature... than are cotton fibres that have been separated from cotton seeds.”Despite the appeals court's decision, big questions remain unanswered. For example, it is unclear whether the sequencing of a whole genome violates the patents of individual genes within it. The case may yet reach the Supreme Court.AS the industryadvances, however, other suits may have an even greater impact. companies areunlikely to file many more patents for human DNA molecules-most are alreadypatented or in the public domain .firms are now studying how genes interact,looking for correlations that might be used to determine the causes of diseaseor predict a drug’s efficacy, companies are eager to win patents for‘connectingthe dots’, explains Hans Saue r, a lawyer for the BIO.Their success may bedetermined by a suit related to this issue, brought by the Mayo Clinic, whichthe Supreme Court will hear in its next term. The BIO recently held aconvention which included sessions to coach lawyers on the shifting landscapefor patents. Each meeting was packed.31. It can be learnedfrom paragraph I that the biotech companies would like _____A. their executives tobe activeB. judges to rule outgene patentingC. genes to bepatentableD. the BIO to issue awarning32. Those who areagainst gene patents believe that _____A. genetic tests are notreliableB. only man-madeproducts are patentableC. patents on genesdepend much on innovationD. courts shouldrestrict access to gene tic tests33. According to HansSauer, companies are eager to win patents for _____A. establishing diseasecorrelationsB. discovering geneinteractionsC. drawing pictures ofgenesD. identifying human DNA34.By saying “each meeting was packed”(line4,para6)the author meansthat _____A. the supreme court wasauthoritativeB. the BIO was apowerful organizationC. gene patenting was agreat concernD. lawyers were keen toattend conventions35. Generally speaking,the author’s attitude toward gene patenting is _____A. criticalB. supportiveC. scornfulD. objectiveText 4The great recession maybe over, but this era of high joblessness is probably beginning. Before itends,It will likely changethe life course and character of a generation of young adults. And ultimately,it is likely to reshape our politics, our culture, and the character of oursociety for years.No one tries harder thanthe jobless to find silver linings in this national economic disaster. Manysaid that unemployment, while extremely painful, had improved them in someways; they had become less materialistic and more financially prudent; theywere more aware of the struggles of others. In limited respects, perhaps therecession will leave society better off. At the very least, it has awoken usfrom our national fever dream of easy riches and bigger houses, and put anecessary end to an era of reckless personal spending.But for the most part,these benefits seem thin, uncertain, and far off. In The Moral Consequences ofEconomic Growth, the economic historian Benjamin Friedman argues that bothinside and outside the U.S. ,lengthy periods of economic stagnation or declinehave almost always left society moremean-spirited and less inclusive, and haveusually stopped or reversed the advance of rights and freedoms. Anti-immigrantsentiment typically increases, as does conflict between races and classes.Income inequalityusually falls during a recession, but it has not shrunk in this one,. Indeed,this period of economic weakness may reinforce class divides, and decreaseopportunities to cross them--- especially for young people. The research ofTill Von Wachter, the economist in Columbia University, suggests that not allpeople graduating into a recession see their life chances dimmed: those withdegrees from elite universities catch up fairly quickly to where they otherwisewould have been if they had graduated in better times; it is the masses beneaththem that are left behind.In the internet age, itis particularly easy to see the resentment that has always been hidden withinAmerican society. More difficult, in the moment, is discerning precisely howthese lean times are affecting society’s character. In many respects, the U.S.was more socially tolerant entering this recession than at any time in itshistory, and a variety of national polls on social conflict since then haveshown mixed results. We will have to wait and see exactly how these hard timeswill reshape our social fabric. But they certainly will reshape it, and all themore so the longer they extend.36. By saying “to findsilver linings”(Line 1,Para.2)the author suggest that the jobless try to ____.[A]seek subsidies fromthe government[B]explore reasons forthe unemployment[C]make profits from thetroubled economy[D]look on the brightside of the recession37. According toParagraph 2,the recession has made people _____.[A]realize the nationaldream[B]struggle against eachother[C]challenge theirlifestyle[D]reconsider theirlifestyle38. Benjamin Friedmanbelieve that economic recessions may _____.[A]impose a heavierburden on immigrants[B]bring out more evilsof human nature[C]Promote the advanceof rights and freedoms[D]ease conflictsbetween races and classes39. The research of TillVon Wachther suggests that in recession graduates from elite universities tendto _____.[A]lag behind the othersdue to decreased opportunities[B]catch up quickly withexperienced employees[C]see their lifechances as dimmed as the others’[D]recover more quicklythan the others40.

(10points)“Universal history, thehistory of what man has accomplished in this world, is at bottom the History ofthe Great Men who have worked here,” wrote the Victorian sage Thomas Carlyle.Well, not any more it is not. Suddenly, Britain looksto have fallen out with its favorite historical form. This could be no morethan a passing literary craze, but it also points to a broader truth about howwe now approach the past: less concerned with learning from forefathers andmore interested in feeling their pain. Today, we want empathy, not inspiration.From the earliest daysof the Renaissance, the writing of history meant recounting the exemplary livesof great men. In 1337, Petrarch began work on his rambling writing De VirisIllustribus – On Famous Men, highlighting the virtus (or virtue) of classicalheroes. Petrarch celebrated their greatness in conquering fortune and rising tothe top. This was the biographical tradition which Niccolo Machiavelli turnedon its head. In The Prince, he championed cunning, ruthlessness, and boldness,rather than virtue, mercy and justice, as the skills of successful leaders.Over time, theattributes of greatness shifted. The Romantics commemorated the leadingpainters and authors of their day, stressing the uniqueness of the artist'spersonal experience rather than public glory. By contrast, the Victorian authorSamual Smiles wrote Self-Help as a catalogue of the worthy lives of engineers,industrialists and explorers. "The valuable examples which they furnishthe power of self-help, of patient purpose, resolute working and steadfastintegrity, issuing in the formulation of truly noble and many character,exhibit,” wrote Smiles.” what it is in the power of each to accomplish forhimself” His biographies of James Walt, Richard Arkwright and Josiah Wedgwoodwere held up as beacons to guide the working man through his difficult life.This was all a bitbourgeois for Thomas Carlyle, who focused his biographies on the truly heroiclives of Martin Luther, Oliver Cromwell and Napoleon Bonaparte. These epochalfigures represented lives hard to imitate, but to be acknowledged as possessinghigher authority than mere mortals.Communist Manifesto. Forthem, history did nothing; it possessed no immense wealth nor waged battles:“It is man, real, living man who does all that.” And history should be thestory of the masses and their record of struggle. As such, it needed toappreciate the economic realities, the social contexts and power relations inwhich each epoch stood. For:“Men make their own history, but they do not makeit just as they please; they do not make it under circumstances chosen bythemselves, but under circumstances directly found, given and transmitted fromthe past.”This was the traditionwhich revolutionized our appreciation of the past. In place of Thomas Carlyle,Britain nurtured Christopher Hill, EP Thompson and Eric Hobsbawm. History frombelow stood alongsidebiographies of great men. Whole new realms ofunderstanding — from gender to race to cultural studies —were opened up asscholars unpicked the multiplicity of lost societies. And it transformed publichistory too: downstairs became just as fascinating as upstairs.[A] emphasized the virtue of classical heroes.41. Petrarch [B] highlighted the public glory of the leading artists.42. Niccolo Machiavellli [C] focused on epochal figures whose lives were hard to imitate.43. Samuel Smiles [D] opened up new realms of understanding the great men in history.44. Thomas Carlyle [E] held that history should be the story of the masses and their record of struggle.45. Marx and Engels [F] dismissed virtue as unnecessary for successful leaders.[G] depicted the worthy lives of engineer industrialists and explorers.Section III Translation46.

2012年考研英语真题答案与解析

2012年全国硕士研究生入学考试英语试题答案与解析Section Ⅰ Use of EnglishThe ethical judgments of the Supreme Court justices have become an important issue recently. The court cannot 1(B.maintain)its legitimacy as guardian of the rule of law 2(A.when) justices behave like politicians. Yet, in several instances, justices acted in ways that 3(B.weakened)the court’s reputation for being independent and impartial.Justice Antonin Scalia, for example, appeared at political events. That kind of activity makes it less likely that t he court’s decisions will be 4(D.accepted)as impartial judgments. Part of the problem is that the justices are not 5(C.bound)by an ethics code. At the very least, the court should make itself 6(B.subject)to the code of conduct that 7(D.applies)to the rest of the federal judiciary.This and other similar cases 8(B.raise) the question of whether there is still a 9(A.line)between the court and politics.The framers of the Constitution envisioned law 10(B.as) having authority apart from politics. They gave justices permanent positions 11(A.so) they would be free to12(C.upset) those in power and have no need to 13(C.cultivate) political support. Our legal system was designed to set law apart from politics precisely because they are so closely 14(D.tied).Constitutional law is political because it results from choices rooted in fundamental social 15(A.concepts) like liberty and property. When the court deals with social policy decisions, the law it 16(C.shapes)is inescapably political — which is why decisions split along ideological lines are so easily 17(A.dismissed) as unjust.The justices must 18(C.address) doubts about the court’s legitimacy by making themselves 19(D.accountable) to the code of conduct. That would make rulings more likely to be seen as separate from politics and, 20(D.as a result) convincing as law.最近,最高法院法官的道德判断成为了至关重要的事情。
英语大纲解析

2012考研英语大纲解析今年的考试解析没有什么太大变化,今年题型和去年题型是一样的,现在考研还是五种题型,完形填空、阅读理解、新题型、翻译、写作,要求还是那样的要求,基本没有什么太大变化。
这使得我们对2010年备考的考生悬着的心终于落了下来,现在终于知道前面复习的基本都是对路的,大纲基本没有做重大改革。
阅读理解跟去年的要求基本上是一样的,也就是说我们在考试当中是四篇文章,总字数是1600个单词,考试过程当中要考1600个单词,如果不出意外的话,2010年阅读理解的考察选材基本来自西方的报刊与杂志,一般来说来自八大报刊杂志,《经济学家》、《新闻周刊》、《科学美国人》、《时代周刊》、《美国新闻与世界报道》、《科学》、《纽约时报》、《泰晤士报》等等。
每道篇目有五道题,四篇文章20道题,每道题2分。
考察的要点没有什么变化,根据考试大纲的解析,我们阅读理解选材来自各类书籍和报刊,各类书籍和报刊这两年还是偏报刊比较多一点,而且我们现在要求有生词量,生词量占总词量的3%,四篇文章1600个单词,平均下来每篇文章有一两个生词。
今年阅读理解要求我们读懂一些与本人学习或者工作有关的文献、科技说明或者产品介绍,今年还是这样规定的,说明整个考研的学生分为两块,一块是应届本科毕业生,还有一块是在职考研,为了照顾到这两方面群体的要求,所以在大纲中规定我们阅读理解不仅能够看懂报刊书籍上的文章,看懂技术说明、产品介绍、文献,不管是报刊上选取的文章还是技术说明、产品介绍,关于阅读理解能力的要求大纲有八点要求。
第一,考试过程中要理解主旨要义,给一篇文章能够做一些主旨题,所谓主旨题分为两种,文章主旨题、段落主旨题。
这篇文章出的时候经常问你这篇文章的主题是什么或者这篇文章告诉我们一个什么道理,这篇文章是什么样的写作目的,这篇文章有什么样的写作风格,这篇文章有什么样的最佳标题。
这些都在考生对阅读材料主旨的理解,有些时候可能会问就原文当中的某一段或者某段或者某几段,问这两个或者三个一群讲的是什么主旨意思。
