第1题

With another dramatic fireworks display Sunday evening at the National Stadium here, the B

eijing Olympics came to a dazzling close, ending two weeks of spectacular athletic performances during an Olympic competition.

Unlike in the opening ceremony, with its orderly parade of countries and their athletes, the closing ceremony brought flag bearers congregating in the middle, and athletes filing in somewhat haphazardly and many dressed less formally.

Beijing had staked everything on the Games, galvanizing the nation, spending billions to rebuild the ancient capital, erecting fantastic stadiums and producing the kind of opening and closing ceremonies that can only be created in China, with tens of thousands of performers dazzling a global television audience the vibrant displays of color and mass synchronization.

The 29th Olympiad was supposed to be China's coming out party, a show of its rising economic and political power and its reemergence as a global power. And in many ways it was. But the Games also turned into a dramatic show of this country's athletic power, with China hauling in 51 gold medals, enough to top the gold medal tables and unseat the United States, which won 36.

下面这段话摘自《1991年总统经济报告》，请解释：“为保持强劲的经济增长。美国必须维持对新资本和新技

术的高投资率。而高投资率要求适合的国民储蓄流。近年来巨大的联邦预算赤字降低了国民储蓄率。因而。正确的、增长导向的财政政策要求削减联邦预算赤字。” Explain the following statement from the 1991 Economic Report of the President：“To sustainrobust economic growth，the United States must maintain a high rate of investment in new capital and new technology．That，in turn，requires an adequate flow of national saving．The substantial Federal budget deficits of recent years have decreased the national saving rate．Sound．growth—ori—ented fiscal policy thus requires that the Federal budget deficit be reduced．”

第4题

回答下列各题： A． As never before in their long history, universities have become instrumen

ts of national competition as wellas instruments of peace. They are the place of the scientific discoveries that move economies forward, andthe primary means of educating the talent required to obtain and maintain competitive advantage. But at thesame time, the opening of national borders to the flow of goods, services, information and especiallypeople has made universities a powerful force for global integration, mutual understanding and geopoliticalstability. B．In response to the same forces that have driven the world economy, universities have become more self-consciously global: seeking students from around the world who represent the entire range of cultures andvalues, sending their own students abroad to prepare them for global careers, offering courses of study thataddress the challenges of an interconnected world and collaborative (合作的) research programs to advancescience for the benefit of all humanity. C．Of the forces shaping higher education none is more sweeping than the movement across borders. Over thepast three decades the number of students leaving home each year to study abroad has grown at an annual rateof 3.9 percent, from 800,000 in 1975 to 2.5 million in 2004. Most travel from one developed nation to another,but the flow from developing to developed countries is growing rapidly. The reverse flow from developed todeveloping countries, is on the rise, too. Today foreign students cam 30 percent of the doctoral degreesawarded in the United States and 38 percent of those in the United Kingdom. And the number crossing bordersfor undergraduate study is growing as well, to 8 percent of the undergraduates at Americas best institutions andI0 percent of all undergraduates in the U.K. In the United States,20 percent of the newly hired professors inscience and engineering arc foreign-born, and in China many newly hired faculty members at the top researchuniversities received their graduate education abroad. D．Universities are also encouraging students to spend some of their undergraduate years in another country; InEurope, more than 140,000 students participate in the Erasmus program each year, taking courses for credit inone of 2,200 participating institutions across the continent. And in the United States, institutions are helpingplace students in summer internships (实习) abroad to prepare them for global careers. Yale and Harvard haveled the way, offering every undergraduate at least one international study or internship opportunity--andproviding the financial resources to make it possible. E． Globalization is also reshaping the way research is done. One new trend involves sourcing portions of aresearch program to another country. Yale professor and Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator TianXu directs a research center focused on the genetics of human disease at Shanghais Fudan University, incollaboration with faculty colleagues from both schools. The Shanghai center has 95 employees and graduatestudents working in a 4,300-square-meter laboratory facility. Yale faculty, postdoctors and graduate studentsvisit regularly and attend videoconference seminars with scientists from both campuses. The arrangementbenefits both countries; Xus Yale lab is more productive, thanks to the lower costs of conducting research inChina, and Chinese graduate students, postdoctors and faculty get on-the-job training from a world-classscientist and his U.S. team. F．As a result of its strength in science, the United States has consistently led the world in the commercializationof major new technologies, from the mainframe. computer and integrated circuit of the 1960s to the Internetinfrastructure (基础设施) and applications software of the 1990s. The link between university-based scienceand industrial application is often indirect but sometimes highly visible: Silicon Valley was intentionallycreated by Stanford University, and Route 128 outside Boston has long housed companies spun off from MITand Harvard. Around the world, governments have encouraged copying of this model, perhaps mostsuccessfully in Cambridge, England, where Microsoft and scores of other leading software and biotechnologycompanies have set up shop around the university. G． For all its success, the United States remains deeply hesitant about sustaining the research-university model~Most politicians recognize the link between investment in science and national economic strength, but supportfor research funding has been unsteady. The budget of the National Institutes of Health doubled between 1998and 2003, but has risen more slowly than inflations since then. Support for the physical sciences andengineering barely kept pace with inflation during that same period. The attempt to make up lost ground iswelcome, but the nation would be better served by steady, predictable increases in science funding at the rate oflong-term GDP growth, which is on the order of inflation plus 3 percent per year. H．American politicians have great difficulty recognizing that admitting more foreign students can greatly promotethe national interest by in. creasing international understanding. Adjusted for inflation, public funding: forinternational exchanges and foreign-language study is well beloW the levels of 40 yearS ago. In the wake ofSeptember 11, changes in the visa process caused a dramatic decline inthe number of foreign students seeking admission to U.S. universities, and a corresponding surge in enrollments in Australia, Singapore and the U.K.Objections from American university and business leaders led to improvements in the process and a reversal ofthe decline, but the United States is still seen by many as unwelcoming to international students. I．Most Americans recognize that universities contribute to the nations well-being through their scientificresearch, but many fear that foreign students threaten American competitiveness by taking their knowledge andskills back home. They fail to grasp that welcoming foreign students to the United States has two importantpositive effects: first, the very best of them stay in the States and--like immigrants throughout history--strengthen the nation; and second, foreign students who study in the United States become ambassadors formany of its most cherished (珍视) values when they return home. Or at least they understand them better. InAmerica as elsewhere, few instruments of foreign policy are as effective in promoting peace and stability aswelcoming international university students. American universities prepare their undergraduates for global careers by giving them chances for international study or internship.

第6题

In Washington D. C. , 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is a very special address. It is the addres

s of the White House, the home of the President of the United States.

Originally the White House was gray and was called the Presidential Palace. It was built from 1792 to 1800. At this time, the city of Washington itself was being built. It was to be the nation's new capital city. George Washington, the first President, and Pierre Charles L'Enfant, a French engineer, chose the place for the new city. L'Enfant then planned the city. The President's home was an important part of the plan.

A contest was held to pick a design for the President's home. An architect named James Hoban won. He designed a large three-story house of gray stone.

President Washington never lived in the Presidential Palace. The first President to live there was John Adams, the second President of the United States, and his wife. Mrs. Adams did not really like her new house. In her letters, she often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm.

In 1812 the United States and Britain went to war. In 1814 the British invaded Washington. They burned many buildings, including the Presidential Palace.

After the war James Hoban, the original architect, partially rebuilt the President's home. To cover the marks of the fire, the building was painted white. Before long it became known as the White House.

The White House is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. Every year more than 1. 5 million visitors go through the five rooms that are open to the public.

The White House was built in Washington______.

A．because a French engineer was invited to design it

B．because President George Washington liked to live in it

C．because the British invaders lived in it in 1812—1814

D．because it was to be the nation's capital city

The next decade could see commuters speeding to work at about 300 miles per hour aboard ma

gnetic levitation vehicles, according to a report by Argonne National Laboratories. But before "maglev" vehicles can become commercial successes, the report says, people need to stop thinking of them as high-speed trains. Instead, consider them low-flying aircraft. Argonne contends that maglev vehicles will be best suited to replace commuter aircraft. Plane flights under 600 miles are the least energy-efficient, and maglev "planes" should cut these fuel needs by up to 75 percent. Reportedly, the money saved by a 2,000- mile maglev network linking major cities world more than pay for its construction in 20 years. The quiet purr of levitating crafts would also be a balm for neighborhoods tormented by the roar of conventional takeoffs and landings. The technology behind magnetic levitation is already well understood, the report notes. The west Germans and the Japanese already well understood, the report notes. The West Germans and the Japanese have several full-scale working models. Meanwhile, research in the United States has lapsed.What is the best title for this passage？A.The Future of TransportationB.Argonne Develops Maglev TrainC.The Disadvantages of Commuting by AirplaneD.Commuting in the Future

听力原文： It has been reported that in colleges across the United States, the daytime seri

al drama known as the soap opera has suddenly become "in". Between the hours of 11 a. m. and 4:30 p. m. , college television lounges are filled with soap opera fans who can't wait to see the next episode in the lives of their favorite characters.

Actually, soaps are more than a college favorite; they are a youth favorite. When school is out, high school students are in front of their TV sets. One young working woman admitted that she turned down a higher paying job rather than give up her favorite serials. During the 1960s, it was uncommon for young people to watch soap operas. The mood of the sixties was rather different from now. It was a time of seriousness, and talk was about social issues of great importance.

Now, seriousness has been replaced by fun. Young people wanted to be happy. It may seem strange that they may turn to soap opera, which is known for showing trouble in people's lives, but soap opera is enjoyment. Young people can identify with the soap opera character, who like the college-age viewer, is looking for happy love, and probably not finding it. And soap opera gives young people a chance to feel close to people without having to bear any responsibility for their problems.

What is soap opera？

A．Plays based on science fiction stories.

B．Plays based on non-fiction stories.

C．The daytime serial dramas on TV.

D．Popular documentary films on TV.
