第1题
For centuries Oxford has been at Britain's intellectual heart, perhaps the most prestigiou
s among Europe's many ancient universities. Oxford has attracted students and scholars from all over the world who have gone on to achieve the highest positions in their countries. Alumni include numerous famous scientists, literary figures and overseas politicians.

As a place of learning Oxford's beginnings go back to the Middle Ages. Legend has it that Alfred laid its foundations at the end of the ninth century. Certainly by the 12th century scholars were teaching in the town and their fame had spread to the Continent, particularly to the Sorbonnes in Paris, then Europe's greatest centre of learning. A group of English scholars left the French capital in 1167 to settle in Oxford and the place became a magnet for students and teachers from all over Britain. Today Oxford is a large, busy city, but the ancient university buildings in the centre have remained largely untouched by the urban expansion.

While most old universities have modernised radically to accommodate their growing populations, Oxford has managed to expand while still preserving its traditional structure. The 36 existing colleges are independent, self-governing institutions operating under the umbrella of the University of Oxford.

The passage focuses on Oxford's______.

A.past and present.

B.modern development.

C.present and future.

D.traditional structure.

概要写作 归纳段落大意 Read each paragraph below and then write a restatement of ideas in the original paragraph, or a brief one-sentence summary. Note that restatements give the same information in a different way. (10 points) Paragraph 1 Often people who hold higher positions n a give group overestimate their performance, while people in the lowest levels of the group underestimate theirs. While this may not always be true, it does indicate that often the actual position in the group has much to do with the feeling of personal confidence a person may have. Thus, members who hold higher positions in a group or feel that they have an important part to play in the group will probably have more confidence in their own performance. (3 points) Paragraph 2 Like any theory of importance, that of social or cultural anthropology was the work of many minds and took on many forms. Some, the best known of its proponents, worked on broad areas and attempted to describe and account for the development of human civilization in its totality. Others restricted their efforts to specific aspects of the culture, taking up the evolution of art, or the state, or religion. (3 points) Paragraph 3 There was a time when scholars held that early humans lived in a kind of beneficent anarchy, in which people were granted their rights by their fellows and there was no governing or being governed. Various early writers looked back to this Golden Age but the point of view that humans were originally children of nature is best known to us in the writings of Rousseau, Locke, and Hobbes. These men described the concept of social contract, which they said had put an end to the state of nature in which the earliest humans were supposed to have lived. (4 points)

It is widely known that languages change over the years, and therefore is not easy to estimate how m
any languages are currently spoken in the world: the figure commonly known is about 5,000. Most languages are known to belong to language families which can be subdivided into smaller units, referred to as branches. There are at least fifteen language families which are the ancestors of modern languages throughout the world.

Most languages of Europe except for Basque, Hungarian, or Finnish and the languages of Iran, Afghanistan, Pakistan, and India belong to the Indo-European language family. Four of the five official languages of the United Nations are Indo-European (English, French, Russian, and Spanish are Indo-European). It has twelve branches: Romance, Germanic, Slavic, Baltic, Celtic, Iranian, Indic, Tocharian, Anatolian, Armenian, Greek and Albanian. Germanic group includes English, German, Yiddish, Norwegian, Swedish, Danish, Dutch and a few others. Germanic group shares its similarities in vocabulary and phonology and some are mutually intelligible. With about 350 million speakers, English is spoken in many countries such as the British Isles, the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand, being the second most spoken language in the world after Chinese. Romance Group includes French, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, and Romanian among which Spanish is the third most spoken language in the world. These languages are also closely related to each other.

There are various theories about how Indo-European languages came to spread out to Europe and Western Asia, but the most dominant one presumes that the Indo-European language family originated from the Black Sea during the Neolithic period about 7000BC, spreading west to Europe between 3500BC and 2500BC, south to the Mediterranean, north to Scandinavia, and east to India.

Scattered throughout Asia and Europe are a few smaller language families among which the Altaic Family is named after the Alti Mountains, in Central Asia where nomadic people lived in the plains. Of the three branches of Altaic, Turkic ranges from Anatolia to the Volga basin and central Asia; Mongolian from China and Mongolia to the lower Volga and Afghanistan; Manchu-Tungus from the northern coast of northeastern Siberia to the Amur and to the Yenisei. Korean and Japanese languages are assumed to be remotely related to the Altaic language family, but it is still controversial. Some scholars consider the Altaic languages are related to the Uralic languages and group them as a larger Ural-Altaic language family, but there has been too little evidence to support this.

Included in the Sino-Tibetan family are about 300 East Asian languages, which are divided into a Sinitic Group and a Tibeto-Burman group. The Sinitic group includes a dozen languages among which Mandarin, spoken by about 700 million people in northern China, is the official language of the People's Republic of China. The Tibeto-Burman group includes many rarely spoken languages, among which are Burmese and Tibetan. The Sino-Tibetan language family has the largest number of speakers, estimated to have 1 billion speakers.

In addition to the three above mentioned language families, there are other language families such as the Austronesian family, the Afroasiatic family, the Uralic family, the Malayo-Polynesian family and the Caucasian family. A very large majority of the people in the world speaks languages which belong to only one family. There are, however, also languages that cannot be classified into any family known as language isolates.

听力原文:M: Sally, how are you doing?

W: I'm doing fine. I've spent the last two years studying Chinese literature on the lovely coast. I could not have made a better choice, as I really enjoy everything about being here except the lack of snow, of course!

M: Why did you choose to study Chinese literature?

W: Well, my parents are China scholars, and since I was very young I've been interested in China, especially Chinese culture.

I have always believed that a country's literature reveals a lot about its culture.

M: What do you like about your study?

W: What I like most is that we have group work, presentations and assignments as well as seminars and lectures. These variations enable interaction and discussion among the students.

M: Say something more about the place of your study, will you?

W: It's a great student town bemuse of its size and nightlife. You will not experience being lost or lonely here. Unfortunately for some, there is a lack of opportunities for those interested in art.

M: I guess it's still a wonderful place.

W: It sure is. It can offer friendly people, a gorgeous beach, powerful waves and a fresh sea breeze. Nothing else can refresh you more than a walk by the beach!

As is the case in many cultures, the degree to which a minority group was seen as differen
t from the characteristics of the dominant majority determined the extent of that group's acceptance. Immigrants who were like the earlier settlers were accepted. The large numbers of immigrants with significantly different characteristics tended to be viewed as a threat to basic American values and the American way of life.

This was particularly true of the immigrants who arrived by the million during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. Most of them came from poverty-stricken nations of southern and eastern Europe. They spoke languages other than English, and large numbers of them were Catholics or Jews.

Americans at the time were very fearful of this new flood of immigrants. They were afraid that these people were so accustomed to lives of poverty and dependence that they would not understand such basic American values as freedom, self-reliance and competition. There were so many new immigrants that they might even change the basic values of the nation in undesirable ways.

Americans tried to meet what they saw as a threat to their values by offering English instruction for the new immigrants and citizenship classes to teach them basic American beliefs. The immigrants, however, often felt that their American teachers disapproved of the traditions of their homeland. Moreover, learning about American values gave them little help in meeting their most important needs such as employment, food, and a place to live.

Far more helpful to the new immigrants were the "political bosses" of the larger cities of the northeastern United States, where most of the immigrants first arrived. Those bosses saw too many of the practical needs of the immigrants and were more accepting of the different homeland traditions. In exchange for their help, the political bosses expected the immigrants to keep them in power by voting for them in elections.

In spite of this, many scholars believe that the political bosses performed an important function in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. They helped to assimilate large numbers of disadvantaged white immigrants into the larger American culture. The fact that the United States had a rapidly expanding economy at the turn of the century made it possible for these new immigrants, often with the help of the bosses, to better their standard of living in the United States. As a result of these new opportunities and new rewards, immigrants came to accept most of the values of the larger American culture and were in mm accepted by the great majority of Americans. For white ethnic groups, therefore, it is generally true that their feeling of being a part of the larger culture, that is, "American" is much stronger than their feeling of belonging to a separate ethnic group-Irish, Italian, Polish, etc.

A minority group's acceptance to the country was determined by

A.the difference they showed from the majority.

B.the time when they arrived at the new land.

C.the background conditions they came from.

D.the religious group to which they belonged.

The word "globalization" usually conjures up images of globe-spanning companies and distan
ce-destroying technologies. Its enablers are the laws of comparative advantage and economies of scale.

In The Great Brain Race Ben Wildavsky points to another mighty agent o{ globalization: universities. These were some of the world's first "global" institutions. In the Middle Ages great universities such as Paris and Bologna attracted "wandering scholars" from across Europe. In the 19th century Germany's research universities attracted scholars from across the world. In the early 20th century philanthropists such as Cecil Rhodes and William Harkness established scholarships to foster deeper links between countries. By the 1960s globe-trotting professors were so commonplace that they bad become the butt of jokes. (What is the difference between God and professor so and so? God is everywhere. Professor so and so is everywhere but here. )

Universities are obsessed by the global marketplace for students and professors. They are trying to attract as many students from abroad as possible (not least because foreign students usually pay full fees). Nearly 3 million students now spend some time studying in foreign countries, a number that has risen steeply in recent years. Universities are also setting up overseas. New York University has opened a branch in Abu Dhabi. Six American universities have created a higher-education supermarket in Qatar. Almost every university worth its name has formed an alliance with a leading Chinese institution.

But globalization is going deeper than just the competition for talent: a growing number of countries are trying to create an elite group of "global universities" that are capable of competing with the best American institutions. China and India are focusing resources on a small group. The French and German governments are doing hattie with academic egalitarians in an attempt to create European Ivy Leagues. Behind all this is the idea that world-class universities can make a disproportionate contribution to economic growth.

This is a fascinating story. But Mr. Wildavsky, a former education reporter who now works for both the Kauffman Foundation and the Brookings Institution, is too earnest a writer to make the best of it. He wastes too much ink summarising research papers and quoting "experts" uttering banalities. And he fails to point out the humour of sabbatical man jet-setting hither and thither to discuss such staples of modern academic life as poverty and inequality. Mr. Wildavsky should spend less time with his fellow think-tankers (who are mesmerised by the idea of a global knowledge economy) and more talking to students, who experience the disadvantages as well as the advantages of the new cult of globalization at first hand.

The phrase "globe-trotting professors" (Line 5, Paragraph 2) refers to teachers who______.

A.have links with more than one university

B.are busy with teaching in a university

C.commit themselves to educating the talents

D.like to do research on global universities

Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Age has its privile

Passage Three Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.

Age has its privileges in America. And one of the more prominent of them is the senior citizen discount. Anyone who has reached a certain age—in some cases as low as 55—is automatically entitled to a dazzling array of price reductions at nearly every level of commercial life. Eligibility is determined not by one’s need but by the date on one’s birth certificate. Practically unheard of a generation ago, the discounts have become a routine part of many businesses—as common as color televisions in motel rooms and free coffee on airliners.

People with gray hair often are given the discounts without even asking for them;yet, millions of Americans above age 60 are healthy and solvent (有支付能力的). Businesses that would never dare offer discounts to college students or anyone under 30 freely offer them to older Americans. The practice is acceptable because of the widespread belief that “elderly” and “needy” are synonymous (同义的). Perhaps that once was true, but today elderly Americans as a group have a lower poverty rate than the rest of the population. To be sure, there is economic diversity within the elderly, and many older Americans are poor, But most of them aren’t.

It is impossible to determine the impact of the discounts on individual companies. For many firms, they are a stimulus to revenue. But in other cases the discounts are given at the expense, directly or indirectly, of younger Americans. Moreover, they are a direct irritant in what some politicians and scholars see as a coming conflict between the generations.

Generational tensions are being fueled by continuing debate over Social Security benefits, which mostly involves a transfer of resources from the young to the old. Employment is another sore point, Buoyed (支持) by laws and court decisions, more and more older Americans are declining the retirement dinner in favor of staying on the job-thereby lessening employment and promotion opportunities for younger workers.

Far from a kind of charity they once were, senior citizen discounts have become a formidable economic privilege to a group with millions of members who don’t need them.

It no longer makes sense to treat the elderly as a single group whose economic needs deserve priority over those of others. Senior citizen discounts only enhance the myth that older people can’t take care of themselves and need special treatment; and they threaten the creation of a new myth, that the elderly are ungrateful and taking for themselves at the expense of children and other age groups. Senior citizen discounts are the essence of the very thing older Americans are fighting against-discrimination by age.

31. We learn from the first paragraph that ________.

A) offering senior citizens discounts has become routine commercial practice

B) senior citizen discounts have enabled many old people to live a decent life

C) giving senior citizens discounts has boosted the market for the elderly

D) senior citizens have to show their birth certificates to get a discount

听力原文: South Korean ]aw-makers mounted a lash-ditch attempt to stop the use of a controversial Japanese history text-book yesterday and announced plans for an Asiawide coalition against Tokyo's "white washing" of history.

The four MPs are applying to a Tokyo count for an injunction against the distribution of a series of textbooks that have sparked outrage in the region and increasingly souked Japan's diplomatic relations. Japan's neighgouring countries have said the textbooks brush over Japan' s military aggression in World War Ⅱ, from which many of their people still bear scars.

While a ruling in their favour is seen as unlikely, the four MPs plans to continue their campaign against the text-books by forming a region-wide body to oppose "historical distortion" by Japan, said Hahm Seungheui of the ruling Millennium Democratic Party:

"We also propose to set up a neutral independent justice body - the Asia History Count--to settle historical disputes in Asian nations." said Hahm, a former public prosecutor. Hahm was speaking only hours after the final version of the eight textbooks, written by a group of nationalist scholars, was unveiled.

The textbooks, approved by the Japanese Government in April, have sparked diplomatic disputes with many Asian countries, together with new Japanese Prime Minister Junickiro Koizumi's plan to visit a Tokyo war shrine, the final resting place of several convicted war criminals.

Protests in South Korea have escalated into civic campaigns nationwide, including calls for a boycott of Japanese goods, prompting Seoul to postpone joint military exercises with Tokyo.

South Korean Law -makers planned for an Asiawide coalition against ______.

A.Japan's invasion

B.Japan's violation of human rights

C.Japan's distortion of history

D.Japan's cruelty

The biggest demonstration in a generation is being assembled by mobilizing the power of the web, which allows anti-war groups to rally multitudes at the click of a mouse. Cornish speakers for peace can share ideas by e-mail with Rhodes Scholars Against the War while taking into account the sensitivities of the Young Muslim Sisters. Footsore ban-the-bomb veterans such as Tony Myers of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, busily preparing yesterday for the mass protest, can only marvel at the power of the net.

"It's made a massive difference," he said. "Back in the 1980s when we were trying to organize huge demos it was all about going to meetings and sending mail to regional people. I was a volunteer before the 1983 demonstration which attracted 400,000 marchers. The office was just awash with people printing things on old duplicators. People today feel more like they are part of a big movement. In the 1980s, we would read about demos all over the world a few days later in the newspapers. Now you know all the details in advance if you are on the e-mail list. The Stop the War Coalition needs only a handful of headquarters staff because the website is a virtual campaign group in itself, complete with briefings, news, addresses and artwork.

Children's superior mastery of the internet is reflected in the proliferation of youth groups opposing war. The Woodcraft Folk (a sort of pacifist version of the Scouts) announce that they will be bringing an orange parachute on the march. The Engels-Marx Communist Party (slogan "Resist and Revolt") is a group of pupils at a Leicester comprehensive school opposing the war. The entire country is covered from the Aberdeen Students Against War Society to Torbay Stop the War group.

Anti-war campaigners put leaflets, maps, posters and petitions on their websites for supporters to print, stick in their window or hand out at the march. Stop the War Coalition includes a direct- debit form. which supporters can download and send to their bank manager to make donations.

Message boards are filled with anti-war protesters arguing their case. The issue is being exploited by the British National Party, which has posted a self-serving press release proclaiming support for the march because of their concerns over "the power of the Israeli lobby". Anti-war individuals have been e-mailing friends with songs for the march, one to the tune of If You're Happy and You Know It. The internet was created in the 1960s partly by the Advanced Research Project Agency of the US Department of Defense. It is widely said to have been created in order to send military messages after an atomic war.

The example in the first paragraph is used to show the demonstrators ______.

A.share the similar goals with one another

B.need to compromise with one another

C.can not really co-operate due to geographic isolations

D.get in touch with one other easily on internet
