and ［D］.Read the passages carefully and choose the best
answer to each of the questions. Then mark your answer on
ANSWER SHEET 1 by blackening the corresponding letter in
the brackets with a pencil.(40 points)
Passage 1
Specialization can be seen as a response to the problem
of an increasing accumulation of scientific knowledge. By
splitting up the subject matter into smaller units, one
man could continue to handle the information and use it
as the basis for further research. But specialization was
only one of a series of related developments in science
affecting the process of communication. Another was the
growing professionalisation of scientific activity.
No clear-cut distinction can be drawn between professionals
and amateurs in science: exceptions can be found to any
rule. Nevertheless, the word 'amateur' does carry a connotation
that the person concerned is not fully integrated into the
scientific community and, in particular, may not fully share
its values. The growth of specialization in the nineteenth
century, with its consequent requirement of a longer, more
complex training, implied greater problems for amateur participation
in science. The trend was naturally most obvious in those
areas of science based especially on a mathematical or laboratory
training, and can be illustrated in terms of the development
of geology in the United Kingdom.
A comparison of British geological publications over the
last century and a half reveals not simply an increasing
emphasis on the primacy of research, but also a changing
definition of what constitutes an acceptable research paper.
Thus, in the nineteenth century, local geological studies
represented worthwhile research in their own right; but,
in the twentieth century, local studies have increasingly
become acceptable to professionals only if they incorporatel,
and reflect on, the wider geological picture. Amateurs,
on the other hand, have continued to pursue local studies
in the old way. The overall result has been to make entrance
to professional geological journals harder for amateurs,
a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction
of refereeing, first by national journals in the nineteenth
century and then by several local geological journals in
the twentieth century. As a logical consequence of this
development, separate journals have now appeared aimed mainly
towards either professional or amateur readership. A rather
similar process of differentiation has led to professional
geologists coming together nationally within one or two
specific societies, whereas the amateurs have tended either
to remain in local societies or to come together nationally
in a different way.
Although the process of professionalisation and specialization
was already well under way in British geology during the
nineteenth century, its full consequences were thus delayed
until the twentieth century. In science generally, however,
the nineteenth century must be reckoned as the crucial period
for this change in the structure of science.
51．The growth of specialization in the 19th century might
be more clearly seen in sciences such as _________.
［A］sociology and chemistry
［B］physics and psychology
［C］sociology and psychology
［D］physics and chemistry
52．We can infer from the passage that _________.
［A］ there is little distinction between specialization and
professionalisation
［B］amateurs can compete with professionals in some areas
of science
［C］professionals tend to welcome amateurs into the scientific
community
［D］amateurs have national academic societies but no local
ones
53．The author writes of the development of geology to demonstrate
_________.
［A］the process of specialization and professionalisation
［B］the hardship of amateurs in scientific study
［C］the change of policies in scientific publications
［D］the discrimination of professionals against amateurs
54．The direct reason for specialization is _________.
［A］the development in communication
［B］the growth of professionalisation
［C］the expansion of scientific knowledge
［D］the splitting up of academic societies
Passage 2
A great deal of attention is being paid today to the so
called digital divide-the division of the world into the
info(information) rich and the info poor. And that divide
does exist today. My wife and I lectured about this looming
danger twenty years ago. What was less visible then, however,
were the new, positive forces that work against the digital
divide. There are reasons to be optimistic.
There are technological reasons to hope the digital divide
will narrow. As the Internet becomes more and more commercialized,
it is in the interest of business to universalize access-after
all, the more people online, the more potential customers
there are. More and more governments, afraid their countries
will be left behind, want to spread Internet access. Within
the next decade or two, one to two billion people on the
planet will be netted together. As a result, I now believe
the digital divide will narrow rather than widen in the
years ahead. And that is very good news because the Internet
may well be the most powerful tool for combating world poverty
that we've ever had.
Of course, the use of the Internet isn't the only way to
defeat poverty. And the Internet is not the only tool we
have. But it has enormous potential.
To take advantage of this tool, some impoverished countries
will have to get over their outdated anti-colonial prejudices
with respect to foreign investment. Countries that still
think foreign investment is an invasion of their sovereignty
might well study the history of infrastructure (the basic
structural foundations of a society) in the United States.
When the United States built its industrial infrastructure,
it didn't have the capital to do so. And that is why America's
Second Wave infrastructure-including roads, harbors, highways,
ports and so on-were built with foreign investment. The
English, the Germans, the Dutch and the French were investing
in Britain's former colony. They financed them. Immigrant
Americans built them. Guess who owns them now? The Americans.
I believe the same thing would be true in places like Brazil
or anywhere else for that matter. The more foreign capital
you have helping you build your Third Wave infrastructure,
which today is an electronic infrastructure, the better
off you're going to be. That doesn't mean lying down and
becoming fooled, or letting foreign corporations run uncontrolled.
But it does mean recognizing how important they can be in
building the energy and telecom infrastructures needed to
take full advantage of the Internet.
55．Digital divide is something _________.
［A］getting worse because of the Internet
［B］the rich countries are responsible for
［C］the world must guard against
［D］considered positive today
56．Governments attach importance to the Internet because
it _________.
［A］offers economic potentials
［B］can bring foreign funds
［C］can soon wipe out world poverty
［D］connects people all over the world
57．The writer mentioned the case of the United States to
justify the policy of _________.
［A］providing financial support overseas
［B］preventing foreign capital's control
［C］building industrial infrastructure
［D］accepting foreign investment
58．It seems that now a country's economy depends much on
_________.
［A］how well developed it is electronically
［B］whether it is prejudiced against immigrants
［C］whether it adopts America's industrial pattern
［D］how much control it has over foreign corporations
Passage 3
Why do so many Americans distrust what they read in their
newspapers? The American Society of Newspaper Editors is
trying to answer this painful question. The organization
is deep into a long self-analysis known as the journalism
credibility project.
Sad to say, this project has turned out to be mostly low-level
findings about factual errors and spelling and grammar mistakes,
combined with lots of head-scratching puzzlement about what
in the world those readers really want.
But the sources of distrust go way deeper. Most journalists
learn to see the world through a set of standard templates
(patterns) into which they plug each day's events. In other
words, there is a conventional story line in the newsroom
culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative
structure for otherwise confusing news.
There exists a social and cultural disconnect between journalists
and their readers, which helps explain why the "standard
templates" of the newsroom seem alien to many readers. In
a recent survey, questionnaires were sent to reporters in
five middle-size cities around the country, plus one large
metropolitan area. Then residents in these communities were
phoned at random and asked the same questions.
Replies show that compared with other Americans, journalists
are more likely to live in upscale neighborhoods, have maids,
own Mercedeses, and trade stocks, and they're less likely
to go to church, do volunteer work, or put down roots in
a community.
Reporters tend to be part of a broadly defined social and
cultural elite, so their work tends to reflect the conventional
values of this elite. The astonishing distrust of the news
media isn't rooted in inaccuracy or poor reportorial skills
but in the daily clash of world views between reporters
and their readers.
This is an explosive situation for any industry, particularly
a declining one. Here is a troubled business that keeps
hiring employees whose attitudes vastly annoy the customers.
Then it sponsors lots of symposiums and a credibility project
dedicated to wondering why customers are annoyed and fleeing
in large numbers. But it never seems to get around to noticing
the cultural and class biases that so many former buyers
are complaining about. If it did, it would open up its diversity
program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look
for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education,
and class.
59．What is the passage mainly about?
［A］needs of the readers all over the world
［B］causes of the public disappointment about newspapers
［C］origins of the declining newspaper industry
［D］aims of a journalism credibility project
60．The results of the journalism credibility project turned
out to
be .
［A］quite trustworthy
［B］somewhat contradictory
［C］very illuminating
［D］rather superficial
61．The basic problem of journalists as pointed out by the
writer lies in
their _________.
［A］working attitude
［B］conventional lifestyle
［C］world outlook
［D］educational background
62．Despite its efforts, he newspaper industry still cannot
satisfy the
readers owing to its _________.
［A］failure to realize its real problem
［B］tendency to hire annoying reporters
［C］likeliness to do inaccurate reporting
［D］prejudice in matters of race and gender
Passage 4
The world is going through the biggest wave of mergers and
acquisitions ever witnessed. The process sweeps from hyperactive
America to Europe and reaches the emerging countries with
unsurpassed might. Many in these countries are looking at
this process and worrying:"Won't the wave of business concentration
turn into an uncontrollable anti-competitive force?"
There's no question that the big are getting bigger and
more powerful. Multinational corporations accounted for
less than 20% of international trade in 1982.Today the figure
is more than 25% and growing rapidly. International affiliates
account for a fast-growing segment of production in economies
that open up and welcome foreign investment. In Argentina,
for instance, after the reforms of the early 1990s,multinationals
went from 43% to almost 70% of the industrial production
of the 200 largest firms. This phenomenon has created serious
concerns over the role of smaller economic firms, of national
businessmen and over the ultimate stability of the world
economy.
I believe that the most important forces behind the massive
M&A wave are the same that underlie the globalization process:
falling transportation and communication costs, lower trade
and investment barriers and enlarged markets that require
enlarged operations capable of meeting customer's demands.
All these are beneficial, not detrimental, to consumers.
As productivity grows, the world's wealth increases.
Examples of benefits or costs of the current concentration
wave are scanty. Yet it is hard to imagine that the merger
of a few oil firms today could re-create the same threats
to competition that were feared nearly a century ago in
the U.S., when the Standard Oil trust was broken up. The
mergers of telecom companies, such as WorldCom, hardly seem
to bring higher prices for consumers or a reduction in the
pace of technical progress. On the contrary, the price of
communications is coming down fast. In cars, too, concentration
is increasing-witness Daimler and Chrysler, Renault and
Nissan-but it does not appear that consumers are being hurt.
Yet the fact remains that the merger movement must be watched.
A few weeks ago, Alan Greenspan warned against the megamergers
in the banking industry. Who is going to supervise, regulate
and operate as lender of last resort with the gigantic banks
that are being created? Won't multinationals shift production
from one place to another when a nation gets too strict
about infringements to fair competition? And should one
country take upon itself the role of "defending competition"
on issues that affect many other nations, as in the U.S.
vs. Microsoft case?
63．What is the typical trend of businesses today?
［A］to take in more foreign funds
［B］to invest more abroad
［C］to combine and become bigger
［D］to trade with more countries
64．According to the author, one of the driving forces behind
M&A wave is _________.
［A］the greater customer demands
［B］a surplus supply for the market
［C］a growing productivity
［D］the increase of the world's wealth
65．From paragraph 4 we can infer that _________.
［A］the increasing concentration is certain to hurt consumers
［B］WorldCom serves as a good example of both benefits and
costs
［C］the costs of the globalization process are enormous
［D］the Stanard Oil trust might have threatened competition
66．Toward the new business wave, the writer's attitude can
be said to be _________.
［A］optimistic
［B］objective
［C］pessimistic
［D］biased
Passage 5
When I decided to quit my full time employment it never
occurred to me that I might become a part of a new international
trend. A lateral move that hurt my pride and blocked my
professional progress prompted me to abandon my relatively
high profile career although, in the manner of a disgraced
government minister, I covered my exit by claiming "I wanted
to spend more time with my family".
Curiously, some two-and-a-half years and two novels later,
my experiment in what the Americans term "downshifting"
has turned my tired excuse into an absolute reality. I have
been transformed from a passionate advocate of the philosophy
of "having it all",preached by Linda Kelsey for the past
seven years in the page of She magazine, into a woman who
is happy to settle for a bit of everything.
I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized
resignation from the editorship of She after a build up
of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your
life",and making the alternative move into "downshifting"
brings with it far greater rewards than financial success
and social status. Nothing could persuade me to return to
the kind of life Kelsey used to advocate and I once enjoyed:12
hour working days, pressured deadlines, the fearful strain
of office politics and the limitations of being a parent
on "quality time".
In America, the move away from juggling to a simpler, less
materialistic lifestyle is a well-established trend. Downshifting-also
known in America as "voluntary simplicity"-has, ironically,
even bred a new area of what might be termed anticonsumerism.
There are a number of best-selling downshifting self-help
books for people who want to simplify their lives; there
are newsletters, such as The Tightwad Gazette, that give
hundreds of thousands of Americans useful tips on anything
from recycling their cling-film to making their own soap;
there are even support groups for those who want to achieve
the mid-'90s equivalent of dropping out.
While in America the trend started as a reaction to the
economic decline-after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing
in the late'80s-and is still linked to the politics of thrift,
in Britain, at least among the middle-class down-shifters
of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking
to simplify our lives.
For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling
through the'80s,downshifting in the mid-'90s is not so much
a search for the mythical good life-growing your own organic
vegetables, and risking turning into one-as a personal recognition
of your limitations.
67．Which of the following is true according to paragraph
1?
［A］Full-time employment is a new international trend.
［B］The writer was compelled by circumstances to leave her
job.
［C］"A lateral move" means stepping out of full-time employment.
［D］The writer was only too eager to spend more time with
her family.
68．The writer's experiment shows that downshifting _________.
［A］enables her to realize her dream
［B］helps her mold a new philosophy of life
［C］prompts her to abandon her high social status
［D］leads her to accept the doctrine of [WTBX]she magazine
69．"Juggling one's life" probably means living a life characterized
by _________.
［A］non-materialistic lifestyle
［B］a bit of everything
［C］extreme stress
［D］anti-consumerism
70．According to the passage, downshifting emerged in the
U.S. as a result
of _________.
［A］the quick pace of modern life
［B］man's adventurous spirit
［C］man's search for mythical experiences
［D］the economic situation
Part Ⅳ English-Chinese Translation
Directions:
Read the following passage carefully and then translate
the underlined sentences into Chinese. Your translation
must be written neatly on ANSWER SHEET 2.(15 points)
In less than 30 year's time the Star Trek holodeck will
be a reality. Direct links between the brain's nervous system
and a computer will also create full sensory virtual environments,
allowing virtual vacations like those in the film Total
Recall.
71)There will be television chat shows hosted by robots,
and cars with pollution monitors that will disable them
when they offend. 72) Children
will play with dolls equipped with personality chips, computers
with in-built personalities will be regarded as workmates
rather than tools, relaxation will be in front of smell-television,
and digital age will have arrived.
According to BT's futurologist, Ian Pearson, these are among
the developments scheduled for the first few decades of
the new millennium(a period of 1，000 years), when supercomputers
will dramatically accelerate progress in all areas of life.
73)Pearson has pieced together to work of hundreds of researchers
around the world to produce a unique millennium technology
calendar that gives the latest dates when we can expect
hundreds of key breakthroughs and discoveries to take place.
Some of the biggest developments will be in medicine, including
an extended life expectancy and dozens of artificial organs
coming into use between now and 2040.
Pearson also predicts a breakthrough in computer human links.
"By linking directly to our nervous system, computers could
pick up what we feel and, hopefully, simulate feeling too
so that we can start to develop full sensory environments,
rather like the holidays in Total Recall or the Star Trek
holodeck," he says. 74)But that, Pearson points out, is
only the start of man-machine integration:"It will be the
beginning of the long process of integration that will ultimately
lead to a fully electronic human before the end of the next
century."
Through his research, Pearson is able to put dates to most
of the breakthroughs that can be predicted. However, there
are still no forecasts for when faster-than-light travel
will be available, or when human cloning will be perfected,
or when time travel will be possible. But he does expect
social problems as a result of technological advances. A
