Looking at how the wind blows the wild flowers to create a magical 2 of color. Looking at the way insects move hurriedly among plants. The beauty of nature has always been what 3 me to create art. I used to think that artists get inspiration from 4 . Then I went to New York and something happened that really made me 5 that idea.I was offered two-week courses at an art college there. When I took the train to the college for the first time, I had some serious 6 about whether I had made the right choice about coming. I was so used to the 7 countryside. New York, however, was noisy and 8 . People pushed past me to squeeze through the doors of the subway cars. Everything moved at such a 9 pace that I felt I had no time to process it all.Art classes were another story. 10 I started making art, I felt like myself again. Working from memory, I made a series of drawings of natural scenes. “Your images are very 11 and accurate,” one teacher told me. “Why not try using brighter colors and bolder shapes and motions?” I followed her advice and was amazed a t the 12 .One day my cousin Ken came to see my drawings. “Gosh! These are great! They remind me of graffiti (涂鸦).” He exclaimed.I looked at my drawings and was 13 .To me graffiti was not art, it was 14 messy, unreadable writing on walls.“Cool,” Ken continued. “If you’re into art, you should come with me.” I followed him to a huge factory that was completely 15 with graffiti. The walls were covered with bright colors, portraits, words and calligraphy-like symbols. What I saw was art not unlike what I had been making. The big 16 was that the artists drew images from city life, such as crowded subway trains and tall, shiny buildings. In every sketch, there was a(n) 17 that reminded me of that first subway ride, only it was a creative one.Now I know that 18 is different for everyone. What drives one person crazy can be the thing that drives another person to 19 . I may not look at the city the way street artists do, but they may not see nature the way I do. I 20 the way the city’s energy inspires them.

During the next few days, he was not hungry during the day, but when he ___5 a food stall (a place on which food is put to be sold), the smell of food caught his 6 . During the third and the fourth weeks, he had hunger pains and lacked physical strength. He looked forward to one meal and ate it slowly, enjoying every bite. Without it, he knew he would have hardly enough 7 to work.This experiment changed his attitude about some things. Having a cup of tea was not 8 a pastime(消遣). It also gave him strength. He more frequently noticed overweight people and people who threw away leftover food. He 9 the importance of food to hungry person. He could no longer easily pass by a hungry beggar on the street.

A. seriously B. luckily C. necessary D. importantPassage 2.Apes and human beings share a lot in common when it comes to behavior. The evidence taken from the observation of the behavior of apes and children suggests that there are three causes for the outbreak of fighting and the exhibition of 1 by individuals.One of the most common causes of fighting among both children and apes was over the____2____ of external objects. The argument over the ownership of any desired object—food, clothes, toys, females, and the affection of others—was sufficient reason to 3 force. In a case of monkeys’ disagreemen t over females, thirty females were killed. Two points are of particular interest to notice about these fights for possession.In the first place the fights are often carried to such an extreme that they end in the 4___destruction of the objects of common desire. Toys are torn to pieces and females are killed.In the second place it is observable, that 5 occurs when an object is desired by only one person or by someone else. There were many cases where toys and other objects which had been thrown away as useless were 6 defended by their owners when they became the object of some other child’s desire.Another cause of aggression is the tendency for children andapes greatly to ___7___ the invading of a stranger into their group.A new child in the class may be laughed at, isolated, and disliked.A new monkey may be bitten to death. It is interesting to note that anger occurs when a stranger comes from the 8 species. Monkeys do not mind being 9 by a goat or a rat. Children do not object when animals are introduced to the group. As a matter of fact, such newcomers are often ____10____. But when monkeys meet a new monkey or children a strange child, aggression often occurs. This strongly suggests that the reason for the aggression is fundamentally possessiveness. The 11 of the newcomers is feared. The present members of the group feel that there will be more competitors for the food or the attention of the adults.Finally, another common source of fighting among children is a frustration or failure in their own ____12____. A child will be stopped either by 13 causes such as bad weather or illness from doing something he wishes to do, for example, sail his boat or ride the bicycle. Sometimes the activity may be 14 because of the opposition of some adult. The child mayalso frustrate itself by ____15_____, through lack of skill or strength, to complete successfully some desired activity. Such a child will then in the ordinary sense become “naughty”. He will be in a bad or unfriendly temper.1. A. fulfillment B. excitement C. isolation D. aggressiveness2. A. usage B. possession C. value D. collection3. A. turn to B. drive away C. come over D. make into4. A. moderate B. subtle C. complete D. temporary5. A. conflict B. negotiation C. agreement D. donation6.

Furthermore, he could be counted on to explain his ideas in an 5 way, introducing such aids (辅助)to 6 as oil paintings, music, and guest lecturers. Once he 7 sang a song in class in order to make a point clear. 8 , I admired the fact that he would talk to students outside the classroom or talk with them 9 the telephone.

I happen to be one of the few girls who would 1 :surfing (冲浪运动) . But isn’t that a boy thing? Some people 2 . Most certainly not.I started surfing about five years ago and 3 in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first 4 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.When I try to 5 surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my 6 , there’s nothing like it. It involves (牵涉到)body, 7 , and soul. There’s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all 8 us. The feeling I get when I’m surfing across that 9 , becoming one with the 10 , is like I’m weightless.The one thing I can 11 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge (挑战) . You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean 12 an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing ; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的)and 13 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 14 from any other sport.I’ve 15 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do. It’s part of being human to advance to new 16 , so shouldn’t it be expected that girls should step up and start 17 the limits of things boys and men used to dominate (主宰)?There’re women 18 side by side with the President of our country, so why not side by side with the boys 19 the football team or out in the water surfing?

There was never total 3 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 4 clothes hung over a chair take on the 5 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 6 , I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no 7 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My 8 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 9 very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 10 on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home—that was no 11 . After school, 12 , when all the buses were 13 up along the street, I was afraid that I’d get on the wrong one and be taken to some, 14 neighbourhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t 15 the leaders out of my sight.Perhaps one of the worst fears 16 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 17 by others. Being popular was so important to me, 18 and the fear of not being liked was a 19 one.One of the processes (过程) of growing up is being able to 20 and overcome our fears.

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 2 ;they try to find a solution by trial and error. 3 , when all of these methods 4 , the person with a problem has to start analysing. There are six 5 in analysing a problem.6 the person must recognise that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must7 that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the person must 8 the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 9 the parts that are wrong.Now the person must look for 10 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 11 solution. For example, suppose Sam 12 that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 13 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 14 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.After 15 the problem, the person should have 16 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 17 , his suggestions might be:tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.In the end, one 18 seems to be the solution 19 the problem. Sometimes the 20 idea comes quite 21 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 22 way.

Cloze(完形填空题)(Please read the following passages and complete each blank in each passage with one of the given terms.)Passage 1consolidated LCLmaritime shipping containers ISO containersintermediate handling container freight station TEU inventory cost special containers container transportFreight or shipping containers are generally constructed of steel for strength and to meet the requirements of legislation and to standardize dimensions established by the ISO, hence also referred to as(1) . Container ship capacity is measured in terms of(2) . Containers broadly fall into three categories regarding the type of cargo stowed in them, namely general cargo containers, thermal containers, and (3) , such as bulk containers, open top containers and flat rack containers. The container base, also called (4) , plays an important part in linking container terminals where ships are handled with inland centers, using a rail system or road haulage distribution network. If the cargo is less than a full container load, the shipper sends it to the CFS, where it will be (5) with the goods of other shippers in a groupage container. Container transport have many advantages over other modes of transport, such as minimizing the (6) at terminal transshipment points, lowering the risk of damage and pilferage and permitting a door-to-door service either in FCL movement or in(7) movement. The shipment of goods via shipping containers is an essential component of global trade and the container transport system has proven to be a highly efficient and relatively safe and reliable means of global goods transport across modes, and greatly facilitates the development of international trade and multimodal trade. Economical efficiency, speediness, security, and inventory cost are the four considerations in optimizing the (8) . Economical efficiency means the total cost of transport was the lowest; speediness express the time on the way was the shortest; security presents the level of freight damage; and (9) is given by the time in the stock and laydays. Efficient container transport generates logistical savings for businesses through economies of scale and flexibility in production and distribution. (10) are highlighted in the transport chain instead of other types of containerized transport. Now both the biggest and the fastest growing container ports are located in Asia.Answer:(1) ISO containers ISO集装箱(2) TEU 20尺标准箱;20尺换算箱(3) special containers 特种集装箱(4) container freight station 集装箱货运站(5) consolidated 集装;拼装;并装(6) intermediate handling 中途装卸(作业)(7) LCL 拼箱货(8) container transport 集装箱运输(9) inventory cost 库存成本(10) Maritime shipping containers 海运集装箱Passage 2freight forwarders multimodal transport multimodal transport operator segmented transportseparate contracts transshipment pointsspecific section dry porttransport infrastructure multimodal transport document Multimodal transport refers to a transport system usually operated by a single operator named (1) with more than one mode of transport. Under the conventional system of (2) , the consignor enters into separate contracts with each carrier, the liability of each carrier being limited to the carriage performed by him/her. Multimodal transport is the process of providing a door-to-door or warehouse-to-warehouse service for the consignors. The MTO acts as a principal, concludes a (3) with the consignor on his own behalf or through another person acting on his behalf, and assumes responsibility for the performance of the contract. The MTO may enter into separate contracts with the carriers of the different modes defining their responsibilities with regard to the different sections of the transport under the MTCs. However, such (4) shall not affect the responsibility of the MTO with respect to the entire transport. If loss of or damage to the goods has occurred in a certain section of the transport, the provisions of the relevant laws and regulations governing that (5) of the MT shall be applicable to matters concerning the liability of the MTO and the limitation thereof. Multimodal transport has many advantages such as minimizing time loss at (6) , providing faster transit of goods, relieving port congestion and developing new forms of ports. Nowadays, the upgrade of commercial practices, administrative requirements, and (7) is necessary for an efficient multimodal transport system. Sea-rail transport is one form of multimodal transport. Combined sea-rail transport combines its frequent and reliable sea and rail services into a smooth and truly (8) solution for the customers, which isconducive to the sustainable development of transport. A (9) is generally a rail terminal situated in an inland area with rail connections to one or more container seaports, and normally it is container and multimodal oriented and has all logistics facilities, which is needed for shipping agents and (10) in a port.Answer:(1) multimodal transport operator 多式联运人(MTO)(2) segmented transport 分段运输(3) multimodal transport document 多式联运单据(MTD)(4) separate contracts 分段(运输)合同(5) specific section 特定区段(6) transshipment points 转运点(7) transport infrastructure 运输基础设施(8) multimodal transport 多式联运(MT)(9) dry port 无水港(10) freight forwarders 货运代理人Passage 3public authorities consolidation shipmentswholesaler house B/Lmaster B/L quick responsefreight logistics providers value-added logistics services principal Freight All KindsThe primitive function of freight forwarders is to provide customs brokerage services. Then the functions of freight forwarders have further expanded to book space on all transport modes, own some warehousing and transport assets for distribution, become the custodian of cargo, and collaborate with customer and carrier, etc. Now some freight forwarders have gradually become (1) , who are responsible for an entire array of service in the supply chain and provide a range of (2) . In other words, the freight forwarder was traditionally subject to liabilities as an agent being a link between the owner of the goods and the carrier, and now he is subject to liabilities as a (3) when he performs the carriage himself by his own means of transport (performing carrier), issues his own transport document, and makes an express or implied undertaking to assume carrier liabilities (contracting carrier). The forwarder purchases cargo space on different means of transport and the cargo space is generally sold on a (4) basis. Then the freight forwarder resells the space to the client for the margin profit. The freight forwarder may also be dealing with (5) such as customs and ports or organizations such as insurers. The international forwarder is in a position to consolidate a large part of the goods entrusted to his care into so-called (6) , assembled according to the size of consignments and their stowage factor. In consolidation transport, the forwarder acts as a (7) through buying large amounts of space which are sold out to his customers, and issues his own bill of lading known as the (8) or other similar receipt to the consignor of each parcel against the production of which delivery to the consignee will be effected by the forwarder’s agent at the destination. To the carrier, the forwarder is the consignor and the latter’s agent at the destination is the consignee. The carrier accordingly issues the forwarder a (9) or consignment note in respect of theconsolidated consignment. Many factors influence the freight forwarders to choose the suitable ports, such as frequency of ship visits, port efficiency, adequate infrastructure, location, port charges, (10) to port users’needs, and port’s reputation for cargo damage.Answer:(1) freight logistics providers 货运物流服务提供商(2) value-added logistics services 物流增值服务;物流增值业务(3) principal 委托人;当事人(4) Freight All Kinds 均一费率(FAK)(5) public authorities 政府部门(6) consolidation shipments 集装货;拼装货;并装货(7) wholesaler 批发商(8) house B/L 分提单(HBL)(9) master B/L 主提单(MBL)(10) quick response 快速反应。

Members of the neighborhood watch group want to help the police 9 their homes, streets, and families safe.Tina Stedma, president of 10 neighborhood watch group, agrees with Tim.“People seem to think that crime (犯罪) happens to other people but not 11 them. Well, it’s never happened to me,” she said, “but I don’t think anyone has the 12 to steal from other people or to make them feel 13 sitting in their own homes.”Alex, a member of the group, said that all the neighbors 14 out for one another. “We 15 each other’s homes. We keep watch on the neighborhood at night and on weekends. Usually a 16 of four or five of us goes out together. If something doesn’t look right, then we call the 17 . For example, if we notice a group of teenagers who seem to be looking for 18 , or someone destroying property (财产), we report to the police.”Alex feels the neighborhood watch groups 19 a lot in keeping crime down.

When I was in the army I 1 an intelligence test that all soldiers took, and, against 2 of 100, scored 160.I had an auto-repair man once, who, on these intelligence tests, could not 3 have scored more than 80. 4 , when anything went wrong with my car I hurried to him —and he always 5 it.Well, then, suppose my auto-repair man 6 questions for some intelligence tests. By every one of them I’d prove myself a 7 . In a world where I have to work with my 8 , I’d do poorly.Consider my auto-repair man 9 . He had a habit of telling 10 .

Well, Doc, the 15 man who came in was blind. He wanted scissors (剪刀). 16 do you suppose he asked for them?” I lifted my right hand and made scissoring movements with my first two fingers. He burst out laughing and said, “Why, you fool, he used his 17 and asked for them. I’ve been 18 that on all my customers today, but I knew 19 I’d catch you.”“Why is that?” I asked. “Because you are so goddamned educated, Doc.

Summer-time 5 out neat, belted cotton dresses and a hat pulled low over her sunglasses. 6 , she was an ordinary working woman. Of course, I 7 all this only after she was seen no more.

Now that she was gone, I felt I had 12 her. I began to realize that part of our 13 life probably includes such chance meetings with familiar 14 :the milkman you see at dawn, the woman who 15 walks her dog along the street every morning, the twin brothers you see at the library.

I happen to be one of the few girls who would 1 :surfing (冲浪运动) . But isn’t that a boy thing? Some people 2 . Most certainly not.I started surfing about five years ago and 3 in love with the sport on the very first day. Riding that first 4 was the best feeling I had ever experienced.When I try to 5 surfing with other things, I find it very difficult because, in my 6 , there’s nothing like it. It involves (牵涉到)body, 7 , and soul. There’s sand between my toes and cool, salt water all 8 us. The feeling I get when I’m surfing across that 9 , becoming one with the 10 , is like I’m weightless.The one thing I can 11 from surfing and not any other sport is endless challenge (挑战) . You can never be the “best surfer” because the ocean 12 an uncountable variety of waves that nobody can ever master. The variations of surfing styles are wonderful. Some surfers are free and flowing ; others are very aggressive (活跃有力的)and 13 . All of these things attract me to surfing and make it 14 from any other sport.I’ve 15 to tell every girl I know to do something that people don’t think girls can do.

There was never total 3 , but a streetlight or passing car lights 4 clothes hung over a chair take on the 5 of a wild animal. Out of the corner of my 6 , I saw the curtains seem to move when there was no 7 . A tiny sound in the floor would seem a hundred times louder than in the daylight. My 8 would run wild, and my heart would beat fast. I would 9 very still so that the “enemy” would not discover me.Another of my childhood fears was that I would get lost, 10 on the way home from school. Every morning I got on the school bus right near my home—that was no 11 . After school, 12 , when all the buses were 13 up along the street, I was afraid that I’d get on the wrong one and be taken to some, 14 neighbourhood. On school or family trips to a park or a museum, I wouldn’t 15 the leaders out of my sight.Perhaps one of the worst fears 16 all I had as a child was that of not being liked or 17 by others. Being popular was so important to me, 18 and the fear of not being liked was a 19 one.One of the processes (过程) of growing up is being able to 20 and overcome our fears.

Sometimes they try to remember a solution from the last time they had a 1 problem. They often accept the opinions or ideas of other people. Other times they begin to act without 2 ;they try to find a solution by trial and error. 3 , when all of these methods 4 , the person with a problem has to start analysing. There are six 5 in analysing a problem.6 the person must recognise that there is a problem. For example, Sam’s bicycle is broken, and he cannot ride it to class as he usually does. Sam must7 that there is a problem with his bicycle.Next the person must 8 the problem. Before Sam can repair his bicycle, he must know why it does not work. For example, he must 9 the parts that are wrong.Now the person must look for 10 that will make the problem clearer and lead to 11 solution. For example, suppose Sam 12 that his bike does not work because there is something wrong with the brakes. 13 , he can look in his bicycle repair book and read about brakes, 14 his friends at the bike shop, or look at his brakes carefully.After 15 the problem, the person should have 16 suggestions for a possible solution. Take Sam as an example 17 , his suggestions might be:tighten or loosen the brakes; buy new brakes and change the old ones.In the end, one 18 seems to be the solution 19 the problem. Sometimes the 20 idea comes quite 21 because the thinker suddenly sees something new or sees something in a 22 way. Sam, for example, suddenly sees there is a piece of chewing gum (口香糖)stuck to a brake. He 23 hits on the solution to his problem :he must 24 the brake.Finally the solution is 25 . Sam does it and finds his bicycle works perfectly.
