Questions 21 to 25 are
based on the following passage:?
We can make mistakes at any age. Some mistakes we make are about money, but most mistakes are about people. “Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen?” “When I got that GREat job, did Jim really feel good about it, as a friend? Or did he envy my luck?” “And Paul — why didn't I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car?” When we look back, doubts like these can make us feel bad. But when we look back, it's too late.
?
Why do we go wrong about our friends — or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning. And if we don't really listen, we miss the feeling behind the words. Suppose someone tells you, “You're a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You're a lucky guy” or “You're a lucky gal,” that's being friendly. But “lucky dog”? There's a bit of
envy in those words. Maybe he doesn't see it himself. But bringing in the “
dog” bit puts you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck.?
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another. It could mean that the speaker
is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole. But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn't important. It's telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven't got a date for Saturday night.
?
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone's words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking. Do his words fit the way he looks? Does
what he says square with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his
eyes? Stop and think. The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
? 21.When the writer recalls the things that happened between him and his friends, he ____.
? A) feels happy, thinking of how nice his friends were to him
? B) feels he may not have “read” his friends' true feelings correctly
? C) thinks it was a mistake to view Jim as a friend
? D) is sorry that his friends let him down
? 22.By saying “You're a lucky dog.”, the speaker ____.
? A) is just being friendly
? B) expresses the same meaning as “You're a lucky guy.” or“You
' re a lucky gal.”
? C) is humorous to apply the word “dog” to people
? D) has a hidden jealous feeling behind the words
? 23.In listening to a person, the important thing is ____.
? A) to notice his tone, his posture, and the look in his eye
? B) to listen to how he pronounces his words
? C) to check his words against his manner, his tone of voice, and his
posture
? D) not to believe what he says
? 24.If you followed the advice of the writer, you would ____.
? A) weigh carefully what people say to determine their real meaning
? B) get along well with people
? C) trust what other people say
? D) have no doubts about our friends
? 25.This passage tries to tell you how to ____.
? A) avoid mistakes about both money and people
? B) say things elegantly
? C) avoid mistakes in understanding what people tell you
? D) keep people friendly without trusting them
?
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage:
? Sleep is part of a person's daily activity cycle. There are several different stages of sleep, and they too occur in cycles. If you are an average sleeper,
your sleep cycle is as follows. When you first drift off into slumber (安睡), y
our eyes will roll about a bit, your temperature will drop slightly, your muscles will relax, and your breathing were slow and become quite regular. Your brain waves slow down a bit too, with the alpha rhythm of rather fast waves predominating for the first few minutes. This is called stage 1 sleep. For
the next half hour or so, as you relax more and more, you will drift down through stage 2 and stage 3 sleep. The lower your stage of sleep, the slower
your brain waves will be. Then about 40 to 60 minutes after you lose consciousness you will have reached the deepest sleep of all. Your brain waves will show the large slow waves that are known as the delta rhythm. This is stage 4 sleep.
You do not remain at this deep fourth stage all night long, but instead about 80 minutes after you fall into slumber, your brain activity level will increase again slightly. The delta rhythm will disappear, to be replaced by the
activity pattern of brain waves. Your eyes will begin to dart around under your closed eyelids (眼皮) as if you were looking at something occurring in
front of you. This period of rapid eye movement lasts for some 8 to 15 minutes
and is called REM sleep. It is during REM sleep period, your body will soon relax again, your breathing will grow slow and regular once more, and you will slip gently back from stage 1 to stage 4 sleep — only to rise once again to the surface of near consciousness some 80 minutes later.
? 26.The stages of sleep take on ____.
? A) an irregular aspect.
? B) a regular aspect
? C) a punctual aspect
? D) a similar aspect
? 27.Stage 4 sleep lasts ____.
? A) about 80 minutes
? B) about 40?60 minutes
? C) about 30 munutes
? D) about 20?40 minutes
? 28.The brain waves are the slowest during ____.
? A) stage 1 ?C) stage 4
? B) stage 2 and stage 3 ?
D) REM sleep
? 29.In the second paragraph the word “dart” means ____.
? A) glare ?C) stop moving
? B) move rapidly or suddenly ?D) gaze
? 30.One of the features of REM sleep is that ____.
? A) there are large slow waves, though rapid for the first few minutes
? B) you have the deepest sleep
? C) there are no brain waves
? D) the brain waves are a little fast and the brain becomes a little
active
?
Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage:?
Designing a lens can be compared to playing chess. In chess a player tries
to trap his opponent's king in a series of moves. In creating a lens a lens designer attempts to “trap” light by forcing all the rays arising from a single point in the subject to focus on a single point in the image, as a consequence of their passing through a series of transparent( 透明的) elements with precisely curved surfaces. Since in both cases the ultimate goal and the means by which it can be attained are known, one is tempted to think there will be a single best decision at any point along the way. The number of possible consequences flowing from any one decision is so large, however, as to bevirtually, if not actually, infinite. Therefore in lens design, as inchess, perfect solutions to a problem are beyond reach. Although this article will be concerned only with the design of photographic lenses, the same principles apply to all lenses.
?
The lens designer has one enormous advantage over the chess player: the designer is free to call on any available source of help to guide him through the staggering number of possibilities. Most of that help once came from mathematics and physics, but recently computer technology, information theory,chemistry, industrial engineering and psychophysics have all contributed to making the lens designer's job immeasurably more productive. Some of the lens
es on the market today were inconceivable a decade ago. Others whose design is as much as a century old can now be mass?produced at low cost. With the development of automatic production methods, lenses are made by the millions, both out of glass and out of plastics. Today's lenses are better than the best lenses used by the GREat photographers of the past.Moreover, their price may lower, in spite of the fact that 19th?century craftsmen worked for only a few dollars a week and today's lenses are more complex. The lens designer cannot fail to be grateful for the science and technology that have made his work easier and his creations more widely available, but he is also humbled: it is no longer practical for a fine photographic lens to be designed from beginning to end by a single human mind.
? 31.Lens design and chess playing are similar in that ____.
? A) the final goal and the means by which it can be reached are kno
wn
? B) perfect solutions to a problem can be found
? C) any one decision at any point along the way to the goal can bring
numerous possible results
? D) both A and C
? 32.The final goal of designing a lens is ____.
? A) to trap the opponent's lenses
? B) to focus light with lenses
? C) to hand?make lenses at low cost
? D) to reflect light by means of curved surfaces
? 33.After the passage the author will talk about ____.
? A) the principles of designing lenses
? B) techniques of making contact lenses
? C) the design of photographic lenses
? D) styles of lenses
? 34.Which of the following words cannot be used to describe
today's lenses?
? A) More delicate. C) Numerous.
? B) Cheaper. D) Unpopular.
? 35.Lens designers today ____.
? A) have a large source of help to fall back on
? B) receive a low salary
? C) are less respectable than those of the past
? D) are not decisive in the lens design
?
Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
?
Part Ⅰ starts with a brief introductory chapter and then takes up Style and Organization, covering them in that order because skill or lack of skill in style affects all writing, while much technical writing is so short as to offer no problems of organization. These chapters are followed by one on Mechanics, covering matters of form that are peculiar to technical writing or else crop up in it with abnormal frequency.
?
The chapter on Special Problems, which follows, performs a dual function. It provides writing assignments that may be used while the study of style, organization, and mechanics is still under way, and it explains ways of handling certain problems that may arise during the writing of reports, proposals, and other longer forms. We have also expanded the treatment of technical articles — recognizing the potential contribution of article writing to the career of the writer and the value of the article to science and technology.
?
In Part Ⅱ, a change of emphasis at one point is reflected in the new title
for Chapter 8, Nonformal Reports — Their Variation in Form and Purpose, which was formerly called Special Types of Reports. Though certain special types of reports are still discussed, additional emphasis is given to the fact that there does not exist any universally accepted set of types, under
which all reports can be classified.
?
Two other extensive changes have been made in Part Ⅱ: The chapter on Proposals, which first appeared in the second edition, has been rewritten and substantially expanded so as to cover that important subject more thoroughly. Also, an entirely new chapter, Oral Presentation of Technical Information, has been added. Though a study of this chapter is no substitute for training in public speaking, we believe that its recommendations can nevertheless be of substantial assistance to those who use this book on the numerous occasions when they will be called upon to present their ideas in person before a small group or a large audience.
? 36.The passage is most probably a preface to ____.
? A) a technical writing handbook
? B) a handbook on composition
? C) a book on a literary writing
? D) a scientific paper
? 37.In part I, the writer arranges the chapters in the order
of ____.
? A) Introduction—Organization—Special Problems—Style—Nonformal Reports
? B) Introduction—Style—Organization—Special Types of Reports—Mechanics
? C) Introduction—Style—Organization—Mechanics—Special Problems
? D) Introduction—Style—Proposals—Special Problems—Mechanics
? 38.You can find some writing exercises in ____.
? A) the chapter on Organization
? B) the chapter on Style
? C) the chapter on Special Problems
? D) the chapter on Proposals
? 39.According to the passage, the chapter on Oral Presentation
of Technical Information appears in ____ of the book.
? A) Part Ⅰ of the first edition

?【试题分析】 此题考查固定搭配及倒装句。
?【详细解答】 表示“一……就”有以下表达： 1. hardly (scarcely,barely)…when/before 2. no sooner…than。这些句子只用于过去时，主句动作因发生在从句动作之前故用过
去完成时。倘若 hardly,scarcely,no sooner和barely在句中则采取正常语序，但当它们位于句首时，主句的主谓语要部分倒装，使用句型：a. Hardly(Scarcely,Barely)+had+主语＋过去分词＋其他。b. No sooner had+主语+过去分词+其他。例如：a. They had no sooner reached home than it began to rain.他们刚到家就开始下雨了。(正常语序)b. Barely had she finished the report when she had to go to the lecture.她刚写完报告就去
上班。 (倒装语序) c. Scarcely had Jack seen me when he left the room.杰克一见到我
就离开了屋子。 (倒装语序) 此外表示“一……就”还可用以下表达：the moment (that)…,as soon as，the instant…,the minute…，它们不是名词，而是从属连词，后跟从句，从

假期似乎是很慷慨的。
?【试题分析】 此题为语法结构题。

?【参考译文】 公司的建立将从公司营业执照签发之日开始。
?【试题分析】 此题为语法题，考查定语从句引导词。
?【详细解答】 这是个主从复合句，从句需要一个含 day在内的时间状语，特指的一天，其前应用介词on。此外，引导从句的关系代词which若其前有介词时该介词不能省略，故B对。whenever只能引导状语从句，不引导定语从句，例如：You may leave whenever you please.无论你什么时候想走就可以走。
? 70.答案C。
?【参考译文】 你一定误会我了，因为我没说那件事。
?【试题分析】 此题为语法题，考查 must用作“推测”意时的用法。
?【详细解答】 must+have+过去分词：表示对过去发生的事情的有把握的肯定猜测。must+
动词原形：表示对现在发生的事情的猜测。 must+be+doing：表示对现在正进行的动作或在
此刻前一直在进行的动作的猜测，例如： He must be working hard.他一定正在努力工作。

?【翻译技巧】 本句使用减词法。
?【翻译点评】 后半句“ brain activitiy level will increase again slightly.”句中
“ level”一词可以不译，“increase”一词则译为“加强”更好。
? 72.【参考译文】 创造镜片时，镜片设计者试图“捕捉”光线，他们迫使源自物体某个点的所有光线穿过一组曲度准确的透镜，结果光线集中在影像的一个点上。
?【翻译技巧】 本句可用分译法，把长句子中的短语化为句子，分开来叙述，适当用增词
法并调整句子顺序。
?【翻译点评】 句中介词短语“ by forcing all the rays…to focus on a single point
in the image”和后面的介词短语“as a consequence of…surfaces”。结合在一起先调
整语序为“ by forcing all the rays…in the subject, after passing through…surfaces, focus on…in the image”，再将这个长长的介词短语译成两个句子，加上force的逻
辑主语 they，所以译为“他们迫使源自物体某个点的所有光线穿过一组曲度准确的透镜，结果光线集中在影像的一个点上。”
? 73.【参考译文】 然而，每做一个决定可能产生的结果数目之大，如果不是实际上的话，简直是无限的。
?【翻译技巧】 此句的主语部分需用逆序法。
?【翻译点评】 首先需要弄清此句结构，主干为： The number is so large as to be infinite。再将一些修饰性、限定性的成份加进去，就比较容易译出整句了。另外还需注意“virtually, if not actually”的意思，可见，这两个副词virtually与actually并不相同，
前者意为“几乎”，后者意为“实际上”。
? 74.【参考译文】 我们亦扩充了处理专业技术文章的方法——是由于我们
认识到文章写作对写作者职业的潜在贡献以及对科学技术的价值。
?【翻译技巧】 此题需采用“增词法”，还要注意句子的结构。
?【翻译点评】 句中“ the treatment of…”译为“处理……的方法”。破折号后面的分
词短语由分词 recognizing加上两个带有各自定语的并列名词词组“the potential contribution of…”和“the value of…”组成，这个分词短语补充说明前面句子的理由，所以在“认识到……”之前加上“是由于我们”，使其与前面的句子更加紧凑、连贯。

?【翻译点评】 翻译时，将名词性词组“ a study of this chapter”译为动词性词组“学
习本章”，“ no substitute for”译为“并不能替代”，“be of substantial assistance to”译为“对……大有裨益”；其次，将those后的定语从句放在其前译为“那些使用此
