At the theater Hargraves was known as an all-round dialect comedian, having a large repertoire of German, Irish, Swede, and black-face specialties. But Mr. Hargraves was ambitious, and often spoke of his great desire to succeed in legitimate comedy.This young man appeared to conceive a strong fancy for Major Talbot. Whenever that gentleman would begin his Southern reminiscences, or repeat some of the liveliest of the anecdotes, Hargraves could always be found, the most attentive among his listeners. For a time the Major showed an inclination to discourage the advances of the “play actor,” as he privately termed him; but soon the young man’s agreeable manner and indubitable appreciation of the old gentleman’s stories completely won him over. It was not long before the two were like old chums. The Major set apart each afternoon to read to him the manuscript of his book. During the anecdotes Hargraves never failed to laugh at exactly the right point. The Major was moved to declare to Miss Lydia one day that young Hargraves possessed remarkable perception and a gratifying respect for the old regime. And when it came to talking of those old days–if Major Talbot liked to talk, Mr. Hargraves was entranced to listen.

Like almost all old people who talk of the past, the Major loved to linger over details. In describing the splendid, almost royal, days of the old planters, he would hesitate until he had recalled the name of the negro who held his horse, or the exact date of certain minor happenings, or the number of bales of cotton raised in such a year; but Hargraves never grew impatient or lost interest. On the contrary, he would advance questions on a variety of subjects connected with the life of that time, and he never failed to extract ready replies.(选自哈格雷夫斯的两面性 The Duplicity of Hargraves  作者:欧·亨利O.

Directions: This part consists of two sections. In Section A, there are three passages followed by a total of 15 multiple-choice questions. In Section B, there is one passage followed by a total of 5 short-answer questions. Read the passages and write your answers on the Answer Sheet.

Section A  Multiple-Choice Questions (30%)

Passage 1

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

The head of the Library of Congress is to name Donald Hall, a writer whose deceptively simple language builds on images of the New England landscape, as the nation’s 14th poet laureate today.

Mr. Hall,a poet in the distinctive American tradition of Robert Frost, has also been a harsh critic of the religious right’s influence on government arts policy. And as a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts during the administration of George H. W. Bush, he referred to those he thought were interfering with arts grants as “bullies and art bashers”.

He will succeed Ted Kooser, the Nebraskan who has been the poet laureate since 2004.

The announcement of Mr. Hall’s appointment is to be made by James H. Billington, the Librarian of Congress. Mr. Billington said that he chose Mr. Hall because of “the sustained quality of his poetry, the reach and the variety of things he talks about”. Like Mr. Kooser, Mr. Billington said, “Mr. Hall evokes a sense of place. ”

Mr. Hall, 77, lives in a white clapboard farmhouse in Wilmot, N. H., that has been in his family for generations. He said in a telephone interview that he didn’t see the poet laureateship as a bully pulpit. “But it’s a pulpit anyway,” he said. “If I see First Amendment violations, I will speak up.’’

Mr. Hall is an extremely productive writer who has published about 18 books of poetry, 20 books of prose and 12 children’s books. He has won many awards, including a national Book Critics Circle Award in 1989 for “The One Day”,a collection.

In recent years much of his poetry has been preoccupied with the death of his wife, the poet Jane Kenyon, in 1995.

Robert Pinsky, who was poet laureate from 1997 to 2000 said he welcomed Mr. Hall’s appointment,especially in light of his previous outspokenness about politics and arts. “There is something nicely symbolic,and maybe surprising,” Mr. Pinsky said, “that they have selected someone who has taken a stand for freedom.”

The position carries an award of $35,000 and $5,000 travel allowance. It usually lasts a year, though poets are sometimes reappointed.

31. Donald Hall ________.

A. uses simple English to express the images of the New England landscape

B. dislikes the idea of impacting government by the right side of the religion

C. is the 14th poet laureate appointed by the Congress

D. is a member of the advisory council of the National Endowment for the Arts

32. James H. Billington ________.

A. likes the poems with great depth and width

B. speaks highly of poems in simple English rather than complex ones

C. prefers the poems with sustained style and expression

D. likes the poems with the knowledge of various things

33. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?

A. Mr. Hall has published many books and magazines on poems.

B. Mr. Hall is a critic of literature in the U. S.

C. Mr. Hall has got many prizes for his talents in writing.

D. Mr. Hall has got support from his predecessors.

34. What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Mr. Hall loves his wife very much.

B. Mr. Hall takes the new appointment for granted.

C. Mr. Hall has got great ideas from his wife.

D. Mr. Hall may hold the position for another year.

35. What is the best title for the passage?

A. A Guard for Politics and Arts       B. A New Poet Laureate

C. A Representative for Freedom      D. The Winning of a Poet

Passage 2

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage.

Most of us are taught to pay attention to what is said—the words. Words do provide us with some information, but meanings are derived from so many other sources that it would hinder our effectiveness as a partner to a relationship to rely too heavily on words alone. Words are used to describe only a small part of the many ideas we associate with any given message. Sometimes we can gain insight into some of those associations if we listen for more than words. We don’t always say what we mean or mean what we say. Sometimes our words don’t mean anything except “I’m letting off some steam. I don’t really want you to pay close attention to what I’m saying. Just pay attention to what I’m feeling.” Mostly we mean several things at once. A person wanting to purchase a house says to the current owner, “This step has to be fixed before I’ll buy.” The owner says, “It’s been like that for years.” Actually, the step hasn’t been like that for years, but the unspoken message is: “I don’t want to fix it. We put up with it. Why can’t you?” The search for a more expansive view of meaning can be developed through examining a message in terms of who said it, when it occurred, the related conditions or situation, and how it was said.

When a message occurs can also reveal associated meaning. Let us assume two couples do exactly the same amount of kissing and arguing. But one couple always kisses after an argument and the other couple always argues after a kiss. The ordering of the behaviors may mean a great deal more than the frequency of the behavior. A friend’s unusually docile behavior may only be understood by noting that it was preceded by situations that required an abnormal amount of assertiveness. Some responses may be directly linked to a developing pattern of responses and defy logic. For example, a person who says “No!” to a serials of charges like “You’re dumb,” “You’re lazy,” and “You’re dishonest,” may also say “No!” and try to justify his or her response if the next statement is “And you’re good looking.”

We would do well to listen for how messages are presented. The words, “If sure has been nice to have you over,” can be said with emphasis and excitement or ritualistically. The phrase can be said once or repeated several times. And the meanings we associate with the phrase will change accordingly. Sometimes if we say something infrequently it assumes more importance; sometimes the more we say something the less importance it assumes.

36. Effective communication is rendered possible between two conversing partners, if ________.

A. they use proper words to carry their ideas

B. they both speak truly of their own feelings

C. they try to understand each other’s ideas beyond words

D. they are capable of associating meaning with their words

37. “I’m letting off some steam” in paragraph 1 means ________.

A. I’m just calling your attention

B. I’m just kidding

C. I’m just saying the opposite

D. I’m just giving off some sound

38. The house-owner’s example shows that he actually means ________.

A. the step has been like that for years

B. he doesn’t think it necessary to fix the step

C. the condition of the step is only a minor fault

D. the cost involved in the fixing should be shared

39. Some responses and behaviors may appear very illogical, but are justifiable if ________.

A. linked to an abnormal amount of assertiveness

B. seen as one’s habitual pattern of behavior

C. taken as part of an ordering sequence

D. expressed to a series of charges

40. The word “ritualistically” in the last paragraph equals something done ________.

A. without true intention

B. light-heartedly

C. in a way of ceremony

D. with less emphasis

Passage 3

Questions 41 to 45 are based on the following passage:

Cellular slime molds are extraordinary life forms that exhibit features of both fungi and protozoa, although often classed for convenience with fungi. At one time they were regarded as organisms of ambiguous taxonomic status, but more recent analysis of DNA sequences has shown that slime molds should be regarded as inhabiting their own separate kingdom.

Their uniqueness lies in their unusual life cycle, which alternates between a feeding stage in which the organism is essentially unicellular and a reproductive stage in which the organism adopts a multicellular structure. At the first stage they are free-living, separate amoebae, usually inhabiting the forest floor and ingesting bacteria found in rotting wood, dung, or damp soil. But their food supplies are relatively easily exhausted since the cells’ movements are restricted and their food requirements rather large.

When the cells become starved of nutrition, the organism initiates a new genetic program that permits the cells to eventually find a new, food-rich environment. At this point, the single-celled amoebae combine together to form what will eventually become a multicellular creature. The mechanism by which the individual members become a single entity is essentially chemical in nature. At first, a few of the amoebae start to produce periodic chemical pulses that are detected, amplified, and relayed to the surrounding members, which then move toward the pulse origin. In time, these cells form many streams of cells, which then come together to form a single hemispherical mass. This mass sticks together through the secretion of adhesion molecules.

The mass now develops a tip, which elongates into a finger-like structure of about 1 or 2 millimeters in length. This structure eventually falls over to form a miniature slug, moving as a single entity orienting itself toward light. During this period the cells within the mass differentiate into two distinct kinds of cell. Some become prestalk cells, which later form into a vertical stalk, and others form prespore cells, which become the spore head.

As the organism migrates, it leaves behind a track of slime rather like a garden slug. Once a favorable location has been found with a fresh source of bacteria to feed on, the migration stops and the colony metamorphoses into a fungus-like organism in a process known as “culmination.” The front cells turn into a stalk, and the back cells climb up the stalk and form a spherical-shaped head, known as the sorocarp. This final fruiting body is about 2 millimeters in height. The head develops into spores, which are dispersed into the environment and form the next generation of amoebae cells. Then the life cycle is repeated. Usually the stalk disappears once the spores have been released.

The process by which the originally identical cells of the slime mold become transformed into multicellular structures composed of two different cell types—spore and stalk—is of great interest to developmental biologists since it is analogous to an important process found in higher organisms in which organs with highly specialized functions are formed from unspecialized stem cells. Early experiments showed which parts of the slime mold organism contributed to the eventual stalk and which parts to the head. Scientists stained the front part of a slug with a red dye and attached it to the back part of a different slug. The hybrid creature developed as normal. The experimenters then noted that the stalk of the fruiting body was stained red and that the spore head was unstained. Clearly, the anterior part of the organism culminated in the stalk and the posterior part in the spore head. Nowadays, experiments using DNA technology and fluorescent proteins or enzymes to label the prespore and prestalk cells have been undertaken. This more molecular approach gives more precise results than using staining dyes but has essentially backed up the results of the earlier dye studies.

41. How the slime should be classified used to be _________.

A. unknown     B. uncertain     C. controversial     D. unfamiliar

42. According to the passage, what is unusual about the slime molds’ life cycle?

A. They inhabit their own kingdom.

B. They are organisms whose classification is ambiguous.

C. They alternate between unicellular and multicellular structures.

D. They are free-living organisms.

43. All of the followings are mentioned in the text as being parts of the multicellular slug EXCEPT ________.

A. the head      B. the stalk      C. legs      D. spores

44. Why does the author refer to the fungus-like organism as a fruiting body?

A. Because it has become one entity.

B. Because it is 2 millimeters in height.

C. Because it now has a stalk and head.

D. Because it has reached its reproductive stage.

45. According to the passage, the recent DNA studies _________.

A. give similar results to the dye studies

B. contradict the dye studies

C. are less exact than the dye studies

D. have introduced confusion about the dye study results

Section B  Short-Answer Questions (10%)

Passage 4

Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage:

Barry Schwartz did not expect to feel inspired on a clothes-shopping trip. “I avoid buying jeans; I wear one pair until it falls apart,” says Schwartz, an American psychology professor. “The last time I had bought a pair there had been just one style. But recently I was asked if I wanted this fit or that fit, or this color or that. I intended to be out shopping for five minutes but it took an hour, and I began to feel more and more dissatisfied.” This trip made him think: did more choice always mean greater satisfaction? “I’d always believed that choice was good, and more choice was better. My experience got me thinking: how many others felt like me?”

The result was a widely discussed study that challenged the idea that more is always better. Drawing on the psychology of economics, which looks at how people choose what to buy, Schwartz designed a questionnaire to show the differences between what he termed ‘maximisers’ and ‘satisficers’. Broadly speaking, maximisers are keen to make the best possible choices, and often spend time researching to ensure that their purchases cannot be bettered. Satisficers are the easy-going people, delighted with items that are simply acceptable.

Schwartz puts forward the view, which contrasts with what politicians and salesmen would have people believe, that the unstoppable growth in choice is in danger of ruining lives. “I’m not saying no choice is good. But the average person makes at least 200 decisions every day, and I don’t think there’s room for any more.” His study may help to explain the peculiar paradox of the wealthy West—psychologists and economists are puzzled by the fact that people have not become happier as they have become richer. In fact, the ability to demand whatever is wanted whenever it is wanted has instead led to rising expectations.

The search for perfection can be found in every area of life from buying soap powder to selecting a career. Certain decisions may automatically close off other choices, and some people are then upset by the thought of what else might have been. Schwartz says, “If you make a decision and it’s disappointing, don’t worry about it, it may actually have been a good decision, just not as good as you had hoped.”

One fact that governments need to think about is that people seem more inclined to buy something if there are fewer, not more, choices. If that’s true for jeans, then it is probably true for cars, schools and pension funds. “If there are few options, the world doesn’t expect you to make the perfect decision. But when there are thousands it’s hard not to think there’s a perfect one out there, and that you’ll find it if you look hard enough.”

If you think that Internet shopping will help, think again:”You want to buy something and you look at three websites. How long will it take to look at one more? Two minutes? It’s only a click. Before you know it you’ve spent three hours trying to decide which £10 item to buy. It’s crazy. You’ve used another evening that you could have spent with your friends.”

Schwartz, who describes himself as a natural satisficer, says that trying to stop our tendency to be maximisers will make us happier. “The most important recommendation I can give is to lower personal expectations,” he says. “But no one wants to hear this because they all believe that perfection awaits the wise decision maker. Life isn’t necessarily like that.”

46. Why may some advice be rejected?

47. What confuses experts according to the passage?

48. What can be the emotional effect of the result of making a choice?

49. How was Schwartz’s research undertaken?

50. How can personality be defined in the text?

(二)名词解释题:简要解释下列文章片段中划线部分的名词与术语。(25分)

北京时间十月八日,瑞典文学院将本年度的诺贝尔文学奖授予了白俄罗斯作家斯维特兰娜·阿列克谢耶维奇(Svetlana Alexievich),因为她“复调般的作品,成为了我们这个时代苦难与勇气的丰碑”。她的代表作包括《锌皮娃娃兵》、《切尔诺贝利的回忆》、《我还是想你,妈妈》、《我是女兵,也是女人》。大家熟知的村上春树、米兰·昆德拉、菲利普·罗斯、乔伊斯·卡罗尔·奥茨等人依旧没有获奖。

阿列克谢耶维奇本是一位记者,因此她的作品多来源于实地采访,写实性极强,属于非虚构作品。阿列克谢耶维奇的作品“涉及第二次世界大战、苏联在阿富汗的战争、切尔诺贝利核灾难,以及苏联的解体,着重于不同的个人命运组合而成的集体记忆。”

1. 米兰·昆德拉 (5 分)

历史的缩本

作者:周稼骏

马克思的女儿燕妮,曾向当时德国著名的历史学家维特克请教,能否将古今的历史缩成一本简明的小册子。教授含笑答道,不必。他巧妙地用了四句谚语,就概括了古今的历史:

一、当“上帝”要灭亡某人的时候,往往先令其有炙人的权势;

二、时间是筛子,最终会淘去一切历史的陈渣;

三、蜜蜂盗花,结果反使花荣盛;

四、暗透了便望得见星光。
