Please write your answers on the Answer Sheet.Many witnesses concerning the Chinese have told the truth,but perhapsa few of them have succeeded in telling nothing but the truth,and no one of(21)them has ever told the whole truth.No single individual,whatever the extentof his knowledge,could by any possible know the whole truth about the(22)Chinese.The difficulty of comparing Chinese with Anglo-Saxons will be more(23)strongly felt by those who have attempted.To such it will soon become(24)evident that many things which seem“characteristic”of the Chinese aremerely Oriental traits;but in what extent this is true,each reader in the(25)light of his own experience must judge by himself.(26) It has been said that in the present stage of our intercourse with Chinesethere are three ways in which we can come to some knowledge of theirsocial life—by the study of their novels,their ballads,and their plays.Eachof these sources of information doubtless have its worth,but there is likewise(27)a fourth,more valuable than all of them combining,a source not open to every(28)one who wrote on China and the Chinese.It is the study of the family life of(29)the Chinese in their own homes.As the topography of a district can be muchbetter understood in the country than the city,so it is with the characteristics(30)of the people.A foreigner may live in a Chinese city for a decade,and not gainas much knowledge of the interior life of the people as he can acquire by livingtwelve months in a Chinese village.Part II.Reading Comprehension(50%)Section A(30%)Directions:There are2passages in this section.Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements.For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C)and D).You should decide on the best choice and write your answers on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneQuestions31to39are based on the following passage.My Views on GamblingMost of life is a gamble.Very many of the things we do involve taking some risk in order to achieve a satisfactory result.We undertake a new job with no idea of the more indirect consequences of our action. Marriage is certainly a gamble and so is the bringing into existence of children,who could prove sad liabilities.A journey,a business transaction,even a chance remark may result immediately or ultimately in tragedy.Perpetually we gamble—against life,destiny,chance,the unknown—call the invisible opponent what we will.Human survival and progress indicate that usually we win.So the gambling instinct must be an elemental one.Taking risks achieve something is a characteristic of all form of life,including humanity.As soon as man acquired property,the challenge he habitually issued to destiny found an additional expression in a human contest.Early may well have staked his flint axe,his bearskin,his wife,in the hope of adding to his possessions.The acquirement of desirable but non-essential commodities must have increased his scope enormously,while the risk of complete disaster lessened.So long as man was gambling against destiny,the odds were usually in his favor,especially when he used common sense.But as the methods of gambling multiplied,the chances of success decreased.A wager against one person offered on average even chances and no third party profited by the transaction.But as soon as commercialized city life developed,mass gambling become common.Thousands of people now compete for large prizes,but with only minute chances of success,while the organizers of gambling concerns enjoy big profits with,in some cases,no risk at all.Few clients of the betting shops,football pools, state lotteries,bingo sessions,even charity raffles,realize fully the flimsiness of their chances and the fact that without fantastic luck they are certain to lose rather than gain.Little irreparable harm results for the normal individual.That big business profits from the satisfaction of a human instinct is a common enough phenomenon.The average wage-earner,who leads a colorless existence,devotes a small percentage of his earnings to keeping alive with extraordinary constancy the dream of achieving some magic change in his life.Gambling is in most cases a non-toxic drug against boredom and apathy and many well preserve good temper,patience and optimism in dreary circumstances.A sudden windfall may unbalance a weaker,less intelligent person and even ruin his life.And the lure of something for nothing as an ideal evokes criticism from the more rigidly upright representative of the community.But few of us have the right to condemn as few of us can say we never gamble—even it is only investing a few pence a week in the firm’s football sweep or the church bazaar“lucky dip”.Trouble develops,however,when any human instinct or appetite becomes overdeveloped.Moderate drinking produces few harmful effects but drunkenness and alcoholism can have terrible consequences. With an unlucky combination of temperament and circumstances,gambling can only become an obsession, almost a form of insanity,resulting in the loss not only of a man’s property but of his self-respect and his conscience.Far worse are the sufferings of his dependents,deprived of material comfort and condemned to watching his deterioration and hopelessness.They share none of his feverish excitement or the exhilaration of his rare success.The fact that he does not with to be cured makes psychological treatment of the gambling addict almost impossible.He will use any means,including stealing,to enable him to carry on.It might be possible to pay what salary he can earn to his wife for the family maintenance but this is clearly no solution.Nothing—education,home environment,other interest,wise discouragement—is likely to restrain the obsessed gambler and even when it is he alone who suffers the consequences,his disease is a cruel one,resulting in a wasted,unhappy life.Even in the case of the more physically harmful of human indulgences,repressive legislation often increase the damage by causing more vicious activities designed to perpetuate the indulgence in secret.On the whole,though negative,gambling is no vice within reasonable limits.It would still exist in an ideal society.The most we can hope for is control over exaggerated profits resulting from its business exploitation,far more attention and research devoted to the unhappy gambling addict and the type of education which will encourage an interest in so many other constructive activities that gambling itself will lose its fascination as an opiate to a dreary existence.It could be regarded as an occasional mildly exciting game,never to be taken very seriously.31.According to the author,we gamble regardless of the risk,because weA.want to survive.ually win in the gamble.C.don’t know the indirect consequences of the action.D.wish to achieve what may bring us satisfaction.32.The bringing into existence of children is also a gamble because they mayA.be mentally retarded.B.become our disappointment.C.go against us.D.become our opponents.33.According to the passage,we all take risk in gambling because we areA.born with the tendency of taking risks.B.forced to achieve satisfactory result.C.obliged to achieve what we desire.D.born with the nature of achieving satisfaction.34.The gambling instinct,according to the author,is reinforced by human’s desire toA.give up unnecessary property.B.add more to their material possession.C.get desirable commodities.D.change their living conditions.35.Which of the following is true?A.If we dare to gamble,we will usually win.B.If we use common sense to gamble,we will usually lose.C.The luck is usually on our side so long as we have the confidence to change our fate.D.We all have the luck to win the gamble if we use common sense.36.Which of the following is true?A.The more methods to gamble,the fewer the chances to succeed.mon sense plays a role in a gamble.C.The more methods there are,the less profit we will make.D.The more methods there are,the more chances for us to win a gamble.37.Who get profits from gambling activities with no risks?A.Those who organize the activities.B.Those who often go to state lotteries.C.Those who often go to football pools.D.Those who do not take so seriously.38.Many people would like to give away a small sum of money because they constantly think the donation mayA.not affect their general income.B.bring them unexpected big sums of money.C.help them preserve their temper and patience.D.bring them some pennies from heaven.39.According to the author,gambling may lose its fascination if weA.create more chances.B.do not take it so seriously.anize more other activities.D.help develop an interest in other activities.Passage TwoQuestions40to45are based on the following passage.Russia’s new revolution in conservationWhen naturalist Sergei Smirenski set out to create Russia’s first private nature reserve since the Bolshvik revolution,he knew that the greatest obstacle would be overcoming bureaucratic resistance.The Moscow State University professor has charted a steep course through a variety of foes,from local wildlife service officials who covet his funding to government officials who saw more value in development than conservation.But with incredible dedication,and the support of a wide range of international donors form Japan to the United States,the Murovyovka Nature Reserve has finally come into being.Founded at a small ceremony last summer,the private reserve covers11000acres of pristine wetlands along the banks of the Amur River in the Russian Far East.Here,amid forests and marshes encompassing a variety of microhabitats,nest some of the world’s rarest birds—tall,elegant cranes whose numbers are counted in the mere hundreds.The creation of the park marks a new approach to nature conservation in Russia,one that combines traditional methods of protection with an attempt to adapt to the changing economic and political circumstances of the new Russia.“There must be a thousand ways to save a wetland.It is time for vision and risk,and also hard practicality,”wrote Jim Harris,deputy director of the International Crane Foundation,a Wisconsin-based organization dedicated to the study and preservation of cranes,which has been a major supporter of the Murovyovka project.Dr.Smirenski’s vision has been eminently down to earth.At every step,he has tried to involve local officials,businessmen and collective farms in the project,giving them a practical,economic stakes in its success.And with international support,he is trying to introduce new methods of organic farming that will be more compatible with preserving the wetlands.40.The Murovyovka Nature Reserve came into being because ofA.Russian government officials.B.the International Crane Foundation.C.the determination of one man.D.an unrealistic dream.41.If one“charts a steep uphill course”(paragraph2),oneA.expects an arduous journey.B.maps out a mountain trip.C.assumes that life will be uneventful.D.sets himself a difficult goal.42.The preserved“pristine wetlands”mentioned in paragraph3areA.unspoiled.B.precious.C.immaculate.D.uncontaminated.43.The passage states that the Nature Reserve isA.an arid,uninhabited area.B.the only reserve in Russia.C.home to many different birds.D.economically beneficial to local inhabitants.44.The passage implies that the preservation of wetlandsA.can only be accomplished with traditional methods.B.requires imagination,daring and pragmatism.C.is usually a popular concern of politicians.D.limits an area’s development.45.Where is the headquarter of the International Crane Foundation?A.MoscowB.JapanC.WisconsinD.MurovyovkaSection B:Cloze(20%)Please fill in blanks46to65of the following passage.Write your answers on the Answer Sheet.An important factor of leadership is attraction.This does not mean attractiveness in the ordinary sense, for that is a born quality46our control.The leader has,nevertheless,to be a magnet;a central figure towards whom people are47.Magnetism in that sense depends,first of all,48being seen.There is a type of authority which can be49from behind closed doors,but that is not leadership. 50there is movement and action,the true leaders is in the forefront and may seem,indeed,to be everywhere at once.He has to become a legend;the51for anecdotes,whether true or52,character. One of the simplest devices is to be absent53the occasion when the leader might be54to be there, enough in itself to start a rumor about the vital business55has detained him.To56up for this,he can appear when least expected,giving rise to another story about the interest he can display57things which other folks might58as trivial.With this gift for59curiosity the leader always combines a reluctance to talk about himself.His interest is60in other people he questions them and encourages them to talk and then remembers all 61is relevant.He never leaves a party62he has mentally filed a minimum dossier(档案)on63 present,ensuring that he knows64to say when he meets them again.He is not artificially extrovert but he would usually rather listen65talk.Others realize gradually that his importance needs no proof。

2017考研英语一翻译真题解析.doc

2017考研英语一翻译真题解析.doc Directions:Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. Your translation should be written neatly on the ANSWER SHEET. (10 points)The growth of the use of English as the world`s primary language for international communication has obviously been continuing for several decades.(46)But even as the number of English speakers expands further there are signs that the global predominance of the language may fade within the foreseeable future.Complex international, economic, technological and culture change could start to diminish the leading position of English as the language of the world market, and UK interests which enjoy advantage from the breath of English usage would consequently face new pressures. Those realistic possibilities are highlighted in the study presented by David Graddol(47)His analysis should therefore end any self-contentedness among those who may believe that the global position of English is so stable that the young generation of the United Kingdom do not need additional languagecapabilities.David Graddol concludes that moonlit English graduates face a bleak economic future as qualified multilingual youngsters from other countries are proving to have a competitive advantage over their British counterparts in global companies and organizations. Alongside that, (48)many countries are introducing English into the primary-school curriculum but British schoolchildren and students do not appear to be gaining greater encouragement to achieve fluency in other languages.If left to themselves, such trends will diminish the relative strength of the English language in international education markets as the demand for educational resources in languages, such as Spanish , Arabic or Mandarin grows and international business process outsourcing in other language such as Japanese, French and German, spreads.(49)The changes identified by David Graddol all present clear and major challenges to UK`s providers of English language teaching to people of other countries and to broader education business sectors. The English language teaching sector directly earns nearly &1.3 billion for the UK in invisible exports and our other education related exploresearn up to &10 billion a year more. As the international education market expands, the recent slowdown in the number of international students studying in the main English-speaking countries is likely to continue, especially if there are no effective strategic policies to prevent such slippage. The anticipation of possible shifts in demand provided by this study is significant:(50) It gives a basis to all organization which seek to promote the learning and very different operating environment. That is a necessary and practical approach. In this as in much else, those who wish to influence the future must prepare for it.【答案】(46)翻译:但是即使当下英语使用者的人群还在进一步扩大,有迹象表明:在可预见的未来,英语可能会逐渐失去其全球主导地位。

Dans l’oeuvre de Duras ? Elle m’oppose sa légendaire petite moue : « Je n’avais pas lu le livre ! » Tant de franchise étonne, d’autant qu’Huppert trimballe une solide réputation d’actrice intello. Elle s’en fiche éperdument. Et n’est pas du genre à se faire mousser : la diva du nouveau roman, confesse-t-elle sans afféterie, elle ne la connaissait pas plus que ça.Et, chaque fois, ce furent de bons moments, pas prise de tête pour un centime d’euro : « C’était une femme très généreuse de son temps, affectueuse et très attentive à l’autre, très éloignée de sa caricature. Elle n’avait rien d’intimidant. » Le fait que le courant soit si bien pa ssé avec cette chère Marguerite l’a-t-il aidée àincarner le personnage du film ? « La mère de Duras, dans le livre, est une femme très usée et beaucoup plus dure que moi. J’ai préféré insister sur son incohérence. Et il n’était pas question pour moi de l’aimer ou de ne pas l’aimer. » Dans un français à l’image de ce qu’elle dit—limpide et exigeant—, pour Isabelle Huppert, à l’évidence, un mot est un mot : « Je me laisse guider par mon envie et mes intuitions. Je m’abandonne aux images que j’ai en tête. Mais je ne donne pas tout d’un seul coup. Je garde des réserves d’intensité dramatique pour des moments bien définis, de peur de devenir emphatique. »Mais il n’y a pas que le cinéma dans la vie ; et comment en sort-on, de ces personnages tous plus névrotiques, lorsqu’il faut en revenir à la famille, aux enfants, aux exigences beaucoup moins échevelées du quotidien ? « J’ai souvent connu des longues plages loin des plateaux, mais cette fois-ci, je savoure particuli èrement la pause. Les journées se déroulent sans que je m’en aperçoive. C’est délicieux d’être spectatrice et de jouir d’un luxe pareil. » Tout juste consent-elle àlâcher qu’un de ses loisirs préférés, c’est d’observer les autres. « En toutes circonstances, ça évite de s’ennuyer. Ni un travail ni une activité. Un état de porosité très grand aux situations. »D’un seul coup, phrases brèves et sèches : « Le monde, j’ai fait le choixde ne pas en parler. Un acteur n’a pas à dire ce qu’il en pense. On ne questionnerait pas un peinture, alors pourquoi un acteur ? » Manque de chance, le mot lui hérisse le poil encore plus : « L’humain ne m’intéresse pas. Je déteste ce terme et la compassion qu’il implique. J’ai de l’intransigeance avec la vie. Les bons sentiments ne sont pas mon truc!» Mais qu’on ne s’y trompe pas : nulle méchanceté dans le ton.IrèneFrainParis Match Janvier2009Vocabulairetrimballer v.t. : mener, porter partout avec soiéperdument adv. : follementéchevelé,e adj. : désordonnéintransigeance n.m. : caractère inflexible, qui n’admet aucun compromis1.Le personnage qu’incarne Isabelle Huppert est inspiré par ................ .A.sa lecture des romansB.ses intituitions et ses réservés d’intensité dramatique vie de l’auteurD.sa vie intime2. « n’est pas du genre à se faire mousser » signifie ici ................. .A. est d’humeur changeanteB. ce n’est pas son style de sefaire valoirC. est digne de se faire valoirD. n’est pas d’humeur à se fairevaloir3.« Un étéde porositétrès grand aux situations. » reflète chez cetteactrice ................... .A.un tempérament flexible aux circonstancesB.un caractère aussi sensible que changeantC.un tempérament difficile à supporterD.un tempérament hésitant en toute circonstance4.

Comprehension(选择题每小题1分,共10小题;填空题每小题1分,共8小题;简答题每小题2分,共11小题;共40分)PASSAGE ONEThe Work-Life BalanceThis month the TUC is campaigning against,what it calls,Britain's"long hours culture". But do the British actually work too long?And if we do,is it doing us,or society at large,anyharm?Over the past150years working hours across the developed world have been falling.In the mid-nineteenth century men in Britain,in paid employment,worked for at least55hours per week.Hours worked then began a steady drop--the rise of trade unionism is one explanation,but then,after the First World War they plateaued.From1951onwards they dropped again but this fall was brought to a sudden halt in1981with the onset of the deregulatory economic policies of the Thatcher years.Working hours reached a high in1997 when the UK average number of hours worked hit45.8per week,falling to44.3hours per week in2004.The main reason for this recent decline has been the impact of EU's Working Time Directive which stipulated that no one could work more than48hours in a week,unless special exemption had been jointly applied for by both employers and employees. Nonetheless,in European terms,we are still doing badly in terms of hours worked--British workers are at the top,or bottom,of the hours charts,depending on your point of view.In 2004British workers put in almost two and a half hours more per week than the average European worker--although that was an improvement on2001when the gap was three and a quarter hours.In terms of actual hours worked,for those fortunate enough to be living and working in the Netherlands the average was just38.8hours a week,whilst for those unfortunate enough to be working in Britain,the average was43.5hours.Workers in our closest European competitors,France and Germany,worked38.9hours and39.6hours per week respectively. And yet,according to research both French and German workers are around20%more productive than their British counterparts.And we do equally badly when it comes to holidays. The European average for annual paid leave is26.5days per year--again the UK is near the bottom of the league with an average of24.5days of annual leave.However,these raw figures don't tell the whole story.During the1980s and1990s it was fashionable to predict that the"revolution in work"had begun.Business gurus were forecasting that the then current work norm,in which the majority of the workforce were in full-time employment at places of work away from home would give way to the majority having portfolios of part-time,temporary jobs,with many working either from home or from mobile office environments.This would result in a blurring between work and home,leisure, and employment--thus concerns about hours worked would become little more than of historical interest.This view is backed up by Michael Moynagh in Working in the Twenty-First Century. After examining trends in working time over the past twenty years,and casting their findings forward,they conclude:"On balance it is likely that contracted working time will continue to drop,if slowly and intermittently".According to the research project"The Future of Work"led by Professor Peter Nolan of Leeds University,the notion that the nature of work is changing radically is systematically demolished.Based on a nationwide survey of employees Professor Nolan reports that the project found that,contrary to this conventional wisdom,the"end of work"scenario had not come to pass. In fact the1990s had seen a growth,not a contraction,in the proportion of employees in full-time permanent jobs.In2000,92%of workers were in permanent work compared with88%eight years earlier.And in2000only5.5%said they were working on a temporary contract,compared with7.2%in1992."Such startling figures do not suggest Britain is rapidly developing a more flexible labour market when measured by the extent of employment stability.Indeed,the permanent job remains very much the overwhelming norm and this is true across every occupational category."Nor was the notion of"going to work"in decline.The researchers found that most people still leave their homes for paid employment,only3%of employees said they worked partly at home and a further1.1%said they worked solely or mainly at home.Thus,arguments about working time are still very central to debates about the nature of the work experience.The Future of Work survey found that dissatisfaction with the hours that people were having to work had increased dramatically.In199235%of men were satisfied with their hours,by2000this had fallen to20%;the decline among women employees was even sharper,down from51%in1992to29%in2000.And this decline was,in terms of social class,across the board.Professor Jonathan Gershuny is an expert on the work-life balance.He paid particular attention,not just to paid work but to two related issues--women's unpaid work and leisure time.Gershuny notes how leisure time itself has become increasingly congested as people have less and less time to"consume"more and more leisure.He quotes from American sociologist Steffan Linder,who noted that as part and parcel of their"success"the harried executive might buy themselves a yacht;and yet the time they make available to enjoy their leisure activities diminishes the more successful they become.Gershuny paints a picture of the harried executive having to plan their leisure time almost as rigorously as they plan their working day.He also casts his eye over the unpaid work that is mainly done by women in the home.He notes how,despite the spread of"labour-saving"devices,the time women spend on domestic chores had not reduced,if anything it had gone up.This is because,as domestic work has become easier so"standards"have risen--rooms that were swept once a week are now swept once a day and meals that were cooked simply to be nourishing now had to be"interesting"as well.Gershuny reports that women on average spend45-hours a week on unpaid domestic work;but where they had a full-time job this time went down to22hours a week.For men, his research showed that irrespective of whether or not they were in full-time work they spent an underwhelming30minutes a day on domestic chores.No doubt many of those same men would privately applaud the sentiments expressed in a Japanese research report that concluded: "Housewives by nature enjoy doing housework.For housewives,it is difficult to distinguish between housework and leisure."Then again,perhaps not,as times have moved on somewhat.Questions1-4Choose the best answer.1.Which statement best describes the change of British working hours?A.Over the past150years,British working hours fluctuated by as long as10hours.B.British workers worked3hours longer every week than their European counterparts in2001.C.British workers worked longer than French and German workers with higherproductivity.D.British workers have the least annual paid leave.2.What does the sentence"thus concerns about hours worked would become little more than of historical interest"imply?A.Since there is no wild change in British working hours,the forecasting of work norm lostmeaning.B.There is no point in concerning about working hours since it is hard to separateemployment and leisure.C.The notion that the nature of work has changed is not right.D.The end of work scenario makes research impossible.3.What can we see from the research findings of Michael Moynagh and Peter Nolan?A.They agreed that in the future,contracted working time will decrease.B.They agreed that more British would like to work from mobile office environments.C.They have different conclusions and forecasts about British working time.D.Both are against conventional wisdom that the end of work has come.4.Professor Jonathan Gershuny notes that______.A.men take over most housework when women are in full-time workB.people work harder in free time to consume what they produce in work timeC.if you are top managers,you have more leisure time availableD.women spend less time on domestic chores latelyQuestions5-9Answer the following questions briefly by using NO MORE THAN TEN words.5.What is the result of working from home or mobile office environments?6.What are the percentages of people working partly at home and solely at home respectively?7.What is the dominant working norm?8.Which phrase expresses the meaning that both managers and manual workers complain about the long hours culture?9.What is one of the two issues that Professor Jonathan Gershuny paid special attention to.Questions10-12Complete the following sentences with NO MORE THAN THREE words.10.According to the Future of Work survey,women are______________________dissatisfied with their working hours.11.The more successful people are,the_____________________time they have to enjoythemselves.12.The appearance of_____________________actually increased time of doing domesticchores.PASSAGE TWOAlready penitent for his angry action,but too stubborn to make amends,Mason toiled on at the head of the cavalcade,little dreaming that danger hovered in the air.The timber clustered thick in the sheltered bottom,and through this they threaded their way.Fifty feet or more from the trail towered a lofty pine.For generations it had stood there,and for generations destiny had had this one end in view--perhaps the same had been decreed ofMason.He stooped to fasten the loosened thong of his moccasin.The sleds came to a halt,and the dogs lay down in the snow without a whimper.The stillness was weird;not a breath rustled the frost-encrusted forest;the cold and silence of outer space had chilled the heart and smote the trembling lips of nature.A sigh pulsed through the air--they did not seem to actually hear it,but rather felt it,like the premonition of movement in a motionless void.Then the great tree,burdened with its weight of years and snow,played its last part in the tragedy of life.He heard the warning crash and attempted to spring up but,almost erect,caught the blow squarely on the shoulder.The sudden danger,the quick death--how often had Malemute Kid faced it!The pine needles were still quivering as he gave his commands and sprang into action.Nor did the Indian girl faint or raise her voice in idle wailing,as might many of her white sisters.At his order,she threw her weight on the end of a quickly extemporized handspike,easing the pressure and listening to her husband's groans,while Malemute Kid attacked the tree with his ax.The steel rang merrily as it bit into the frozen trunk,each stroke being accompanied by a forced,audible respiration,the'Huh!''Huh!'of the woodsman.At last the Kid laid the pitiable thing that was once a man in the snow.But worse than his comrade's pain was the dumb anguish in the woman's face,the blended look of hopeful,hopeless query.Little was said;those of the Northland are early taught the futility of words and the inestimable value of deeds. With the temperature at sixty-five below zero,a man cannot lie many minutes in the snow and live.So the sled lashings were cut,and the sufferer,rolled in furs,laid on a couch of boughs. Before him roared a fire,built of the very wood which wrought the mishap.Behind and partially over him was stretched the primitive fly--a piece of canvas,which caught the radiating heat and threw it back and down upon him--a trick which men may know who study physics at the fount.And men who have shared their bed with death know when the call is sounded.Mason was terribly crushed.The most cursory examination revealed it.His right arm,leg,and back were broken;his limbs were paralyzed from the hips;and the likelihood of internal injuries was large.An occasional moan was his only sign of life.No hope;nothing to be done.The pitiless night crept slowly by--Ruth's portion,the despairing stoicism of her race,and Malemute Kid adding new lines to his face of bronze.In fact,Mason suffered least of all,for he spent his time in eastern Tennessee,in the Great Smoky Mountains,living over the scenes of his childhood.And most pathetic was the melody of his long-forgotten Southern vernacular,as he raved of swimming holes and coon-hunts and watermelon raids.It was as Greek to Ruth,but the Kid understood and felt--felt as only one can feel who has been shut out for years from all that civilization means.Morning brought consciousness to the stricken man,and Malemute Kid bent closer to catch his whispers.“You remember when we foregathered on the Tanana,four years come next ice run?I didn't care so much for her then.It was more like she was pretty,and there was a smack of excitement about it,I think.But d'ye know,I've come to think a heap of her.She's been a good wife to me,always at my shoulder in the pinch.And when it comes to trading,you know there isn't her equal.D'ye recollect the time she shot the Moosehorn Rapids to pull you and me off that rock,the bullets whipping the water like hailstones--and the time of the famine atNuklukyeto--or when she raced the ice-run to bring the news?Yes,she's been a good wife to me,better'n that other one.Didn't know I'd been there?Never told you,eh?Well,I tried it once,down in the States.That's why I'm here.Been raised together,too.I came away to give her a chance for divorce.She got it.”“But that's got nothing to do with Ruth.I had thought of cleaning up and pulling for the Outside next year--her and I--but it's too late.Don't send her back to her people,Kid.It's beastly hard for a woman to go back.Think of it!--nearly four years on our bacon and beans and flour and dried fruit,and then to go back to her fish and caribou.It's not good for her to have tried our ways,to come to know they're better'n her people's,and then return to them. Take care of her,Kid--why don't you--but no,you always fought shy of them--and you never told me why you came to this country.Be kind to her,and send her back to the States as soon as you can.But fix it so she can come back--liable to get homesick,you know.”“And the youngster--it's drawn us closer,Kid.I only hope it is a boy.Think of it--flesh of my flesh,Kid.He mustn't stop in this country.And if it's a girl,why,she can't.Sell my furs;they'll fetch at least five thousand,and I've got as much more with the company.And handle my interests with yours.I think that bench claim will show up.See that he gets a good schooling;and Kid,above all,don't let him come back.This country was not made for white men.”“I'm a gone man,Kid.Three or four sleeps at the best.You've got to go on.You must go on!Remember,it's my wife,it's my boy--O God!I hope it's a boy!You can't stay by me--and I charge you,a dying man,to pull on.”Questions13-15Choose the best answer.13.What is NOT true about Mason’s accident?A.He was struck by an old pine on the shoulder and crushed.B.It was possible his organs had been injured in addition to broken bones.C.He suffered a great deal as he lay waiting for death.D.He was laid on some branches by a great fire in an attempt to recover.14.What do we know about Mason’s wife according to the text?A.She is white like him.B.She is not Mason’s only spouse in life.C.She has been to his hometown.D.She understands Greek.15.What is implied about the character’s lives from the passage?A.Sleds were the main method of transportation.B.The major source of income was fur trading.C.They had to be calm and resourceful in the wild.D.The far north is not suitable for white people.Questions16-17Answer the following questions briefly by using NO MORE THAN TEN words.16.Why does Mason think Ruth is a good wife?17.What was“fly”in paragraph3used for?PASSAGE THREENature versus cultureTo what extent have indigenous peoples suffered at the hands of conservation?When US primatologist Dian Fossey arrived in Rwanda to study the mountain gorillas of the Parcs des Volcans in September1967,her immediate concern was that their habitat was being eroded by human activity.As the government and wildlife authorities were turning a blind eye,she took the law into her own hands and organised patrols to drive out those she considered to be intruders in the park.Many of those targeted were local farmers who were grazing cattle and growing crops, collecting water,wood and bamboo or hunting small mammals.But the Virunga Mountains were also home to the Batwa,pygmy hunter-gatherers who,for thousands of years,had lived on their forested slopes.Fossey took an instant dislike to the Batwa and adopted-vigilante tactics to ensure they stayed away from"her"gorillas.While Fossey's actions represented a huge inconvenience for the Bahutu and Batutsi farmers,for the Batwa they proved devastating.The forest was integral to their lifestyle:it provided them with food and medicine and was the centre of their cultural activities.Without it,they became destitute.They had neither the skills nor the resources to become farmers and were given no compensation or alternative.Considered second-class citizens--unclean, stupid,untrustworthy--by their neighbours,they were forced to live in hovels on the fringes of villages,scratching around in wasteland to eke out a living.By the early1990s,begging was the main source of income for70per cent of Rwandan Batwa.The experience of the Batwa is one shared by millions of indigenous peoples around the world who have suffered at the hands of conservation."Historically the impact of protected areas has been very negative because the rights of the local communities of indigenous peoples haven't been taken into account,"says Marcus Colchester,director of the Forest Peoples'Programme,a UK organisation that promotes the interests of indigenous peoples around the world."The establishment of parks and reserves has often required their forced removal and placed severe limits on their rights of access and use of natural resources.Hence, there has been a lot of conflict,impoverishment,suffering and cultural loss."The traditional fence-and-guards approach to conservation grew out of the US national parks movement of the late19th century,which began preserving areas of'natural'wilderness for recreational purposes.Ecologists subsequently decided that nature should be preserved in a pristine form,uncontaminated by human activity.Over the past40years,conservation of biodiversity has become an increasingly high-profile topic and there has been a corresponding rise in the number of protected areas. According to the World Conservation Union(IUCN)there were just over1,000in1962; today there are more than102,000,covering a terrestrial area of17.1million square kilometres,11.5per cent of the world's land.To date,there hasn't been any conclusive research into the extent to which establishing these areas affects indigenous peoples.But most protected areas were inhabited at one time. In2000,WWF estimated that86per cent of South America's national parks were inhabited by people,most of them indigenous,and90per cent of protected areas in the Americas as a whole hosted indigenous peoples.However,it isn't just the indigenous peoples who have lost out to the traditional model of。

I.Translate the following text into English(每小题20分,共2小题,共40分)
(1)在人际关系问题上我们不要太浪漫主义。
人是很有趣的,往往在接触一个人时首先看到的都是他或她的优点。
这一点颇像是在餐馆里用餐的经验。
开始吃头盘或冷碟的时候,印象很好。
吃头两个主菜时,也是赞不绝口。
愈吃愈趋于冷静,吃完了这顿宴席,缺点就都找出来了。
于是转喜为怒,转赞美为责备挑剔,转首肯为摇头。
其中一个解释是因为开始吃的时候你正处于饥饿状态,而饿了吃糠甜如蜜,饱了吃蜜也不甜。
(2)温哥华(Vancouver)的辉煌是温哥华人智慧和勤奋的结晶,其中包括多民族的贡献。
加拿大地广人稀,国土面积比中国还大,人口却不足3000万。
吸收外来移民,是加拿大长期奉行的国策。
可以说,加拿大除了印第安人外,无一不是外来移民,不同的只是时间长短而已。
温哥华则更是世界上屈指可数的多民族城市。
现今180万温哥华居民中,有一半不是在本地出生的,每4个居民中就有一个是亚洲人。
而25万华人对温哥华的经济转型起着决定性的作用。
他们其中有一半是近5年才来温哥华地区的,使温哥华成为亚洲以外最大的中国人集居地。
II.Translate the following text into Chinese(每小题20分,共2小题,共40分)(1)Some old people are oppressed by the fear of death.In the young there is a justification for this feeling.Young men who have reason to fear that they will be killed in battle may justifiably feel bitter in the thought that they have been cheated of the best things
that life has to offer.But in an old man who has known human joys and sorrows,and has achieved whatever work it was in him to do,the fear of death is somewhat pitiful and ignoble. The best way to overcome it—so at least it seems to me—is to make your interests gradually wider and more impersonal,until bit by bit the walls of the ego recede,and your life becomes increasingly merged in the universal life.An individual human existence should be like a river—small at first,narrowly contained within its banks,and rushing passionately past boulders and over waterfalls.Gradually the river grows wider,the banks recede,the waters flow more quietly,and in the end,without any visible break,they become merged in the sea,and painlessly lose their individual being.
(2)I am lonely only when I am overtired,when I have worked too long without a break, when for the time being I feel empty and need filling up.And I am lonely sometimes when I come back home after a lecture trip,when I have seen a lot of people and talked a lot,and am full to the brim with experience that needs to be sorted out.
Then for a little while the house feels huge and empty,and I wonder where my self is hiding.It has to be recaptured by watering the plants and,perhaps,by looking again at each one as though it were a person.It takes a while,as I watch the surf blowing up in fountains,but the moment comes when the world falls away,and the self emerges again from the deep unconscious,bringing back all I have recently experienced to be explored and slowly understood.
III.Writing (每小题70分,共1小题,共70分)Should people retire from their jobs when they reach a certain age,like 65.This has been an intensely discussed question for years.The following are the supporters’and opponents’opinions.Read carefully the opinions from both sides and write your response in about 500words,in which you should first summarize briefly the opinions from both sides and give your view on the issue.
Marks will be awarded for content relevance,content sufficiency,organization and language quality.Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.YES NO Considering the poor physical conditions,senior employees over 65are not suitable to wor k anymore.If keep working after 65,it is not only dangerous for themselves,but al so exactly detrimental to the company wh o hire them.Plenty of young employees mean that the company is infused with lots of young blood.With the development of technology,more and more new technological products have been developed.Senior employees tend to outshine young adults and thus increase the likelihood of youth unemployment.There is a danger that older people will take away job opportunities from younger people.
Senior employees have accumulated rich experiences and wisdom,which is increasing gradually as time pass es and can truly be beneficial.Though their deteriorating energy might make it hard for them to be competent at intense and stressful work,they are still capable of some jobs,like consultants for the companies.Senior employees are more responsible and even-tempered.Whereas,the younger generation is normally immature.。
