PART I: Writing( 25%) Section A: Letter Writing (10%)

Suppose you want to study in a famous foreign university. Write a letter of application for it (about 100 words)

Section B: Abstract Writing (15%) Directions: Read the following Chinese text and write an abstract of it in 80-100 English words. 伦敦市长恳请金融城员工把奖金捐赠给艺术领域,否则这座都市最重要的一种魅力可能遭到破坏。新发布的数据显示,商界对文化领域的投资正不断减少。 私人部门对艺术的支持——包括个人捐赠——于2008年达到了6.86亿英镑的峰值水平,但昨日发布的数据显示,商界投资额在去年下降了7%。一家推动艺术赞助的咨询机构——艺术与商业(Arts & Business)的一项调查显示,伦敦70%的艺术机构称, 来自商界的资助额有所减少。 然而,伦敦市长在维多利亚和阿尔伯特博物馆(Victoria and Albert Museum)向艺术界领袖发表演讲时表示,在经济衰退期间,投资于艺术“比任何时候都更为重要”。他表示:“艺术和文化不是奢侈品,而是这座城市DNA的一部分,是人们愿意来此生活和工作的原因。每10名游客中就有7名表示,这是他们来此游览的一个原因。离开伦敦的艺术,伦敦就不能称其为伦敦。” 伦敦市长的呼吁得到了老维克剧院(Old Vic)艺术总监凯文斯佩西(Kevin Spacey)的支持,他表示:“我在这里住了7年,我真诚地相信,英国在艺术和文化领域的卓越成就,是这个国家最强大的天然资源之一,但许多艺术机构正举步维艰。如果没有政治意愿,以及企业和公众的支持,它们将很难生存下去。” 伦敦市长敦促艺术界领袖去认识到,英国文化机构的成功运作对经济有一定的影响力。在英国,公共部门对戏剧产业的投资额为1.213亿英镑,但该产业却为英国创造了26亿英镑的收入。大伦敦地区政府(Greater London Authority)估计,商业创意产业为伦敦提供了50万个就业岗位,创造了200亿英镑的增加值。

(附:Section B录音文字稿) Campus collaboration Foreign universities find working in China harder than they expected LIKE their counterparts around the world in just about any other industry, administrators in higher education in the West can be forgiven for looking at the writing on the wall and seeing Chinese characters. Whether for the narrow purpose of generating revenue or the broader goal of engaging more deeply with a rapidly emerging and ever more important nation, foreign universities are scrambling to recruit in China as well as to establish or expand their presence there. Britain’s Lancaster University, New York’s Juilliard School, which specializes in music, and Duke University in North Carolina, are just the latest foreign institutions to pile into an already crowded marketplace. Other co-operative and exchange programmes in higher education are being announced almost every month. Some recruit Chinese students to foreign universities, or foreign students to Chinese ones. Others take the form of research facilities or academic-exchange centres. Some offer dual degrees. The most ambitious involve building, staffing and operating satellite campuses in China. None of them finds it easy to work with an academic system whose standards and values are so different from those in the West. Not least of the hurdles is maintaining scholarly independence in China’s restrictive political environment. The collapse of a Beijing-based undergraduate programme jointly run by two elite institutions—Yale University in America and Peking University—has highlighted some of the difficulties that foreigners face. Yale’s administrators pulled the plug in July, citing high expenses, low enrolment and weaknesses in its Chinese-language programme. In 2007 less than a year after the programme was launched, a visiting Yale faculty member, Stephen Stearns, wrote an open letter complaining about the rampant plagiarism he claimed was being committed by many of his Chinese students. “When a student I am teaching steals words and ideas from an author without acknowledgment, I feel cheated,” said Mr Stearns. “I ask myself, why should I teach people who knowingly deceive me?” He added that such practices appeared to be widely tolerated by Chinese academics, and suggested that the nation had lost its way. However, Yale’s experience has not deterred others from coming in, with strong encouragement from the Chinese government. Officials hope such ventures will stop academic talent moving abroad, and push Chinese universities to improve. But plagiarism, false credentials and research, and cheating on tests, remain obstacles for foreign universities in China. “Academic culture in China is such that the kind of value system we have in place is not part of the woodwork here,” says Denis Simon, who oversees Arizona State University’s dealings with China. In the past year the number of Chinese institutions participating in Arizona State’s dual-degree programme, which allows participating students to gain an American and a Chinese degree, has risen from three to 33. About 95% of students achieve the grades they need to enter the fifth year of study that results in a master’s degree from Arizona State. That high success rate, Mr Simon says, requires heavy investment in sending academic staff

If you're interested in starting a book club, you shouldconsider the following options and recommendations.Before recruiting, think carefully about how many people you want to participate and also what the club’s focus will be. For example, some book clubs focus exclusively on fiction, others on nonfiction. Some are even more specific, focusing only on a particular type such as mysteries, science fiction, or romance. Others have a more flexible and open focus. All of these possibilities can make for a great club, but it is important to decide on a focus at the beginning. So the guidelines will be clear to the group and potential member.After setting the basic principles, recruitment can begin. Notify friends and family, advertise in the local newspaper and on bulletin boards in local stores, colleges, libraries, and bookstores. When enough people express interest, schedule a kick-off meeting during which decisions will be made about specific guidelines that will ensure the club runs smoothly. This meeting will need to establish where the group will meet (rotating homes or a public place such as a library or a coffee shop); how often the group will meet, and on what day of the week and at what time; how long the meetings will be; how books will be chosen and by whom; who will lead the group (if anyone); and whether snacks will be served and if so, who will supply them. By the end of this meeting, these guidelines should be set and a book selection and date for the first official meeting should be finalized.Planning and running a book club is not without challenges, but when a book club is run effectively, the experience can be extremely rewarding for everyone involved.11. When starting a book club, one should first ________.A. notify his friends and familyB. put an ad in a local newspaperC. decide on the focus and size of the clubD. consider when and where the group will meet12. According to Paragraph 2, the “focus” of a book club refers to ________.A. fundsB. locationsC. book typesD. members13. Which of the following would NOT be covered at the kick-off meeting?A. Deciding on whether snacks will be served.B. Discussing whether to appoint a leader.C. Determining the club’s first selection.D. Planning the club’s yearly budget.14. Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A. Starting a book club requires good planning.B. A book club is a place to make new friends.C. Starting one’s own book club is better than joining an existing one.D. Smaller groups are better for a variety of reasons.15. The best title for this passage could be “_____________”.A. Book Clubs: A Great Way to Meet Old FriendsB. Book Club Planning: A Great ChallengeC. Five Steps to Recruit Members for a Book ClubD. Starting a Successful Book Club: A GuidePassage TwoThe Mayan (玛雅) Indians lived in Mexico for thousands of years before the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. The Maya were an intelligent, culturally rich people whose achievements were many. They had farms, beautiful palaces, and cities with many buildings. The Mayan people knew a lot about nature and the world around them. This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time, because they could use it to make their lives more comfortable and rewarding. Knowledge about tools and farming, for instance, made their work easier and more productive.The Maya believed in many gods, including rain gods, sun gods, and corn gods. The people built large temples to honour them. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. It was difficult for them to construct these cities, because they had no horses to carry the heavy stones they used to build with. Workers had to carry all of the building materials themselves. Today, many of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.Usually, only the priests lived in the cities. The other people lived in small villages in the forests. Their houses were much simpler than the elaborate structures in the cities. They lived in small huts with no windows. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.Measuring time was important to the Maya, so the Mayan priests made a system to keep track of time, and they made a calendar in which the year was divided into 18 months of 20 days each with five days left over. The Mayan calendar was far more accurate than the European calendars of the time.16. The Maya lived in Mexico _________.A. shortly before the Spanish arrivedB. long before the Spanish arrivedC. at the same time as the SpanishD. with the Spanish for thousands of years17. Many Mayan cities and temples _________.A. were constructed by the priestsB. were rebuilt several timesC. were built with heavy stonesD. were the miracles of god18. Most Mayan people lived in ________.A. beautiful citiesB. simple hutsC. primitive cavesD. stone temples19. What can we learn about the Mayan calendar?A. It was based on European calendars.B. It was better than European calendars.C. It was as accurate as European calendars.D. It was copied by Europeans.20. What is the main idea of this article?A. The Mayan calendar was excellent.B. The Maya were excellent farmers.C. The Maya were intelligent people.D. The Mayan cities were difficult to build.Passage ThreeA young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a b eautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.As Graduation Day approached, the young man waited for signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?”He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He beg an to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn the pages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tagwas the date of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN FULL.”21. The best title for this passage could be “________”.A. A Tragedy of Father and SonB. A Loving FatherC. The Holy BibleD. A Missed Gift22. On the Graduation Day, what did the father give his son as a gift?A. A Bible and a sports car.B. A beautiful house.C. A lot of money.D. Some gold.23. Before his father’s death, the young man _________.A. learned a lot from his fatherB. got what he had longed forC. failed to understand his fatherD. kept contact with his father24. Which of the following statements is true?A. The young man made fortunes by himself after graduation.B. The young man was proud of his father.C. The fa ther thought his son didn’t deserve the sports car.D. The father couldn’t afford the graduation gift.25. It can be inferred from the passage that people ________.A. should visit their parents more oftenB. should cherish what they already haveC. s houldn’t desire more than they deserveD. should be grateful for whatever they are givenPassage FourIt is becoming more and more difficult to be sure that the food we eat is not actually harming us. We seem to get one food scare after another.Several of these, recently, have concerned genetically modified (GM,转基因) foods. Although some experts tell us that these foods will do us no harm and that the concern about them is just speculative, other experts say that GM food is potentially very damaging to health. At the very best, the jury is still out on the matter.In many countries, products which have been genetically modified are supposed to show this information on their labels, but now some of the large food producers are saying that it is growing increasingly difficult to separate GM food from theconventional varieties.Pesticides (杀虫剂) and chemical fertilizers are also a cause of concern. In the last few years, a great many people have started to buy organic produce, although this is much more expensive than that which is grown using conventional methods. They do so in an effort to stop filling their bodies, and those of their children, with poisonous chemicals.Thus there is an increased demand for organic food and this is not a temporary fashion. But some experts claim that organically grown food is no healthier than other food, because the poison level of the latter is not so high as to be harmful. Those who push for organic food may not be objective, but are part of the powerful food lobby, the chief concern of which is to increase organic food production with a corresponding increase in profits.The use of additives (添加剂) is still another source of anxiety to consumers. These are often added to food to supposedly improve the colour or the flavour. However, it is thought that some of these may be the cause of allergies (过敏),or even the cause of behavioural problems in children.We have to eat to live. The problem is: what is safe to eat?26. What is people’s main concern about GM foods?A. Some of them are not labeled with required information.B. They might pose hazards we don't know yet.C. T hey don’t have the same flavour as conventional foods.D. The sowing of them will damage the environment.27. What does the author mean by “the jury is still out on the matter'”(Para.2)?A. The matter is still uncertain.B. The matter needs a jury to judge.C. The jury to judge is not available.D. The matter is not important.28. In Paragraph 5, the author tries to tell readers that __________.A. experts agree that organic food is no healthier than other foodB. profit-making may be behind the drive to produce more organic foodC. the demand for organic food will not last longD. organic food may also contain poisonous chemicals29. It can be inferred from the last but one paragraph that food additives ________.A. may be harmful to children in particularB. are unnecessary in food productionC. are less poisonous than pesticidesD. do not improve the flavor30. Which of the foll owing best describes the author’s view about the food we eat?A. Unclear.B. Indifferent.C. Optimistic.D. Concerned.Part IV Vocabulary and Structure (25 minutes, 20 points) Directions: There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section. For each sentence there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D.

Of course, I would like to walk with my friendly colleagues, those whom I can turn to when facing difficulties at work.Needless to say, working in an ideal work environment will benefit us a lot both physically and mentally.

If you’re interested in starting a book club, you should consider the following options and recommendations.Before recruiting, think carefully about how many people you want to participate and also what the club’sfocus will be. For example, some book clubs focus exclusively on fiction; others read nonfiction. Some are even more specific, focusing only on a particular type such as mysteries, science fiction, or romance. Others have a more flexible and open focus. All of these possibilities can make for a great club, butit is important to decide on a focus at the beginning so the guidelines will be clear to the group and potential member.After setting the basic principles, recruitment can begin. Notify friends and family, advertise in the local newspaperand on bulletin boards in local stores, colleges, libraries, and bookstores. When enough people express interest, schedule a kick-off meeting during which decisions will be made about specific guidelines that will ensure the club runs smoothly. This meeting will need to establish where the group will meet (rotating homes or a public place such as a library or coffee shop); how often the group will meet, and on what day of the week and at what time; how long the meetings will be; how books will be chosen and by whom; who will lead the group (if anyone); and whether snacks will be served and if so, who will supply them. By the end of this meeting, these guidelines should be set and a book selection and date for the first official meeting should be finalized.Planning and running a book club is not without challenges, but when a book club is run effectively, the experience can be extremely rewarding for everyone involved.11.When starting a book club, one should first.A.notify his friends and familyB.put an ad in a local newspaperC.decide on the focus and size of the clubD.consider when and where the group will meet12.According to Paragraph 2, the “focus”of a book club refers to.A.funds B.locationsC.book types D.members13.Which of the following would NOT be covered at the kick-off meeting?A.Deciding on whether snacks will be served.B.Discussing whether to appoint a leader.C.Determiningthe club’s first selection.D.Planning the club’s yearly budget.14.Which of the following can be learned from the passage?A.Starting a book club requires good planning.B.A book club is a place to make new friends.C.Starting one’s own book club is better than joining an existing one.D.Smaller groups are better for a variety of reasons.15.The best title for this passage could be“________”.A.Book Clubs: A Great Way to Meet Old FriendsB.Book Club Planning: A Great ChallengeC.Five Steps to Recruit Members for a Book ClubD.Starting a Successful Book Club: A GuidePassage TwoThe Mayan (玛雅) Indians lived in Mexico for thousands of years before the Spanish arrived in the 1500s. The Maya were an intelligent, culturally rich people whose achievements were many. They had farms, beautiful palaces, and cities with many buildings. The Mayan people knew a lot about nature and the world around them. This knowledge helped them to live a better life than most people of that time, because they could use it to make their lives more comfortable and rewarding. Knowledge about tools and farming, for instance, made their work easier and more productive.The Maya believed in many gods, including rain gods, sun gods, and corn gods. The people built large temples to honor them. Skillful workers built cities around these temples. It was difficult for them to construct these cities, because they had no horses to carry the heavy stones they used to build with. Workers had to carry all of the building materials themselves. Today, many of these ancient Mayan cities and temples are still standing.Usually, only the priests lived in the cities. The other people lived in small villages in the forests. Their houses were much simpler than the elaborate structures in the cities. They lived in small huts with no windows. Most Maya lived a simple life close to nature.Measuring time was important to the Maya, so the Mayan priests made a system to keep track of time, and they made a calendar in which the year was divided into 18 months of 20 days each with five days left over. The Mayan calendar was far more accurate than the European calendars of the time.16. The Maya lived in Mexico ________.A. shortly before the Spanish arrivedB. long before the Spanish arrivedC. at the same time as the SpanishD. with the Spanish for thousands of years17. Many Mayan cities and temples ________.A. were constructed by the priestsB. were rebuilt several timesC. were built with heavy stonesD. were the miracles of god18.

The Maya were excellent farmers.C. The Maya were intelligent people.D. The Mayan cities were difficult to build.Passage ThreeA young man was getting ready to graduate from college. For many months he had admired a beautiful sports car in a dealer’s showroom, and knowing his father could well afford it, he told him that was all he wanted.As Graduation Day approached, the young man waited for signs that his father had purchased the car. Finally, on the morning of his graduation, his father called him into his private study. His father told him how proud he was to have such a fine son, and told him how much he loved him. He handed his son a beautifully wrapped gift box. Curious, but somewhat disappointed, the young man opened the box and found a lovely, leather-bound Bible, with the young man’s name in gold. Angrily, he raised his voice to his father and said, “With all your money you give me a Bible?”He then stormed out of the house, leaving the Bible.Many years passed and the young man was very successful in business. He had a beautiful home and a wonderful family, but realizing his father was very old, he thought perhaps he should go to see him. He had not seen him since that graduation day. Before he could make the arrangements, he received a telegram telling him his father had passed away, and willed all of his possessions to his son. He needed to come home immediately and take care of things.When he arrived at his father’s house, sudden sadness and regret filled his heart. He began to search through his father’s important papers and saw the still new Bible, just as he had left it years ago. With tears, he opened the Bible and began to turn thepages. As he was reading, a car key dropped from the back of the Bible. On the tag was the date of his graduation, and the words “PAID IN FULL”.21.The best title for this passage could be “________”.A.A Tragedy of Father and SonB.A Loving FatherC.The Holy BibleD.A Missed Gift22.On the Graduation Day, what did the father give his son as a gift?A.A Bible and a sports car.B.A beautiful house.C.A lot of money.D.Some gold.23.Before his father’s death, the young man ________.A.learned a lot from his fatherB.got what he had longed forC.failed to understand his fatherD.kept contact with his father24.Which of the following statements is true?A.The young man made fortunes by himself after graduation.B.The young man was proud of his father.C.The father thought his son didn’t deserve the sports car.D.The father couldn’t afford the graduation gift.25.It can be inferred from the passage that people________.A.shouldvisit their parents more oftenB.should cherish what they already haveC.shouldn’t desire more than they deserveD.should be grateful for whatever they are givenPassage FourIt is becoming more and more difficult to be sure that the food we eat is not actually harming us. We seem to get one food scare after another.Several of these, recently, have concerned genetically modified (GM,转基因) foods. Although some experts tell us that these foods will do us no harm and that the concern about them is just speculative, other experts say that GM food is potentially very damaging to health.At the very best, the jury is still out on the matter.In many countries, products which have been genetically modified are supposed to show this information on their labels, but now some of the large food producers are saying that it is growing increasingly difficult to separate GM food from the conventional varieties.Pesticides (杀虫剂) and chemical fertilizers are also a cause of concern. In the last few years, a great many people have started to buy organic produce, although this is much more expensive than that which is grown using conventional methods. They do so in an effort to stop filling their bodies, and those of their children, with poisonous chemicals.Thus there is an increased demand for organic food and this is not a temporary fashion. But some experts claim that organically grown food is no healthier than other food, because the poison level of the latter is not so high as to be harmful. Those who push for organic food may not be objective, but are part of the powerful food lobby, the chief concern of which is to increase organic food production with a corresponding increase in profits.The use of additives (添加剂) is still another source of anxiety to consumers. These are often added to food to supposedly improve the colour or the flavour. However, it is thought that some of these may be the cause of allergies (过敏), or even the cause of behavioural problems in children.We have to eat to live. The problem is: what is safe to eat?26.What is people’s main concern about GM foods?A.Some of them are not labeled with required information.B.They might posehazards we don’t know yet.C.They don’t have the same flavour as conventional foods.D.The sowing of them will damage the environment.27.What does the author mean by “the jury is still out on the matter”(Para. 2)?A.The matter is still uncertain.B.The matter needs a jury to judge.C.The jury to judge is not available.D.The matter is not important.28.In Paragraph 5, the author tries to tell readers that .A.experts agree that organic food is no healthier than other foodB.profit-makingmay be behind the drive to produce more organic foodC.the demand for organic food will not last longD.organic food may also contain poisonous chemicals29.It can be inferred from the last but one paragraph that food additives .A.may be harmful to children in particularB.are unnecessary in food productionC.are less poisonous than pesticidesD.do not improve the flavour30.Which of the following best describes the author’s view about the food we eat?A.Unclear.B.Indifferent.C.Optimistic.D.Concerned.Part III Vocabulary and Structure (10 minutes, 10 points)Directions:There are 20 incomplete sentences in this section.
