【答案】因此,大學教授遇到的學生往往是這樣的:除了會在試卷上寫簡要答案之外,從不動筆寫任何東西,不怎么讀書,缺乏基本的數(shù)理技能,卻對自己的能力信心滿滿,還拒絕接受任何針對其作業(yè)的批評,甚至到了大哭大鬧的地步。

稍加批評,就得施以各種贊美鼓勵來緩和,以防引發(fā)對立情緒,或者情緒完全崩潰。

由于時間壓力,越來越多的大學老師自問:“給學生什么樣的成績才能保證他們不抱怨,更糟糕的是,才不會因為作業(yè)要求是否清晰而引發(fā)紛爭?”

因此,就不得不招進更多不合要求的學生,還不得不留下他們,從而將爭取學業(yè)成功的負擔從學生身上轉嫁到老師身上。

如果有時間,教師可以進行單獨輔導。但是學生的整體能力決定了在課堂上能夠嚴格要求他們的程度。

2.單選題

Hewasaccusedofbeinga______becausehemadepromiseswhicharousedfutilehopesinhislisteners.

問題1選項

A.spokesman

B.demagogue

C.representative

D.politician

【答案】B

【解析】考查名詞詞義辨析。A選項spokesman“發(fā)言人;代言人”;B選項demagogue“煽動者;煽動家;煽動政治家”;C選項representative“代表;典型;眾議員;銷售代表”;D選項politician“政治家”。句意:他被指控為一名……,因為他的承諾在聽眾中激起了無用的希望。由arousedfutilehopesinhislisteners(在他的聽眾中激起了無用的希望)可知B選項與其意思對應正確,結合此處語境,B選項正確。

第2題:C

第4題:D

【解析】1.判斷推理題。題干問的是根據(jù)這篇文章,除了哪一項外,下面的每一個都是拉格泰姆作品的一個特征?題干問的是根據(jù)這篇文章,除了哪一項外,下面的每一個都是拉格泰姆作品的一個特征?定位到第四段中Notconcernedwithdevelopmentofmusicalthemes,theragtimecomposerinsteadsetsathemedownintact,infinishedform,andlinksittovariousrelatedthemes.Tensioninragtimecompositionsarisesfromapolaritybetweentwobasicingredients:acontinuousbass―calledbyjazzmusiciansaboom-chickbass~inthepianist’slefthand,anditsmelodic,syncopatedcounterpartintherighthand.拉格泰姆作曲家不關心音樂主題的發(fā)展,而是完整地、完整地設定一個主題,并把它與各種相關的主題聯(lián)系起來。拉格泰姆樂曲的張力來自于兩種基本元素之間的對立:鋼琴師左手彈連續(xù)低音(爵士音樂家稱之為“boom-chickbass”)和右手彈有旋律的切分低音。可知D項“音樂主題的全面發(fā)展”不是拉格泰姆作曲的特點,故D項正確。A項“切分音”和B項“與旋律線不同的低音線”,C項“旋律強度不斷上升”這段均有提及。

2.判斷推理題。定位到第二段中Ithassometimesbeenchargedthatragtimeismechanical.Forinstance,WilfredMellerscomments,“ragsweretransferredtothepianolarolland,evenifnotplayedbyamachine,shouldbeplayedlikeamachine,withmeticulousprecision.”However,thereisnoreasontoassumethatragtimeisinherentlymechanicalsimplybecausecommercialmanufacturersappliedamechanicalrecordingmethodtoragtime,theonlywaytorecordpianosatthatdate.Ragtime’sisnotamechanicalprecision,anditisnotprecisionlimitedtothestyleofperformance.Itarisesfromragtime’sfollowingawell-definedformandobeyingsimpleruleswithinthatform.有時有人指責拉格泰姆是機械的。例如,威爾弗雷德?米勒斯評論道,“拉格泰姆被轉移到自動鋼琴上,即使不是機器演奏,也應該像機器演奏一樣具有細致的精確度。”然而,我們沒有理由僅僅因為商業(yè)制造者對拉格泰姆音樂使用了機械錄音的方法(這是當時記錄鋼琴演奏的唯一方法)就認為拉格泰姆本身就是機械的。拉格泰姆音樂不是機械的精度,也不局限于精度的表現(xiàn)風格。它源于拉格泰姆遵循的一種定義明確的形式,并在該形式中遵循簡單的規(guī)則。可知C項“混淆了錄音的手段和音樂的本質特征”正確。D項“夸大了專業(yè)的拉格泰姆音樂演奏者表演風格對這種音樂流派的影響”,A項“錯誤地將商業(yè)拉格泰姆音樂與更微妙的古典拉格泰姆風格區(qū)分開來”;B項“沒有準確地描述拉格泰姆鋼琴音樂的聲音”;文中均未提及,故答案C

3.判斷推理題。題干問:從文中可推斷出拉格泰姆音樂的本質被基于什么基礎上的評論所遮蔽?定位到第二段中“However,thereisnoreasontoassumethatragtimeisinherentlymechanicalsimplybecausecommercialmanufacturersappliedamechanicalrecordingmethodtoragtime,theonlywaytorecordpianosatthatdate.然而,沒有理由僅僅因為商業(yè)制造商對拉格泰姆使用了一種機械錄音方法,就認為拉格泰姆本身就是機械的,這是當時唯一一種錄制鋼琴的方法。”可知由于拉格泰姆用了一種機械錄音法,故A項正確。

4.判斷推理題。題干問:下列哪一項在來源和藝術特征上與文中描述的拉格泰姆樂曲最為相似?A項“從復雜的爵士主題中衍生出來的交響樂。”;B項“一部以著名卡通人物為原型的實驗性小說”;C項“演員們創(chuàng)造場景并即興創(chuàng)作臺詞的一種戲劇作品”;D項“以民間舞蹈為基礎的有紀律的舞蹈編排的芭蕾舞”。定位到第三段中“Theaimofthestructureistorisefromonethemetoanotherinastair-stepmanner拉格泰姆結構的目的是要以階梯狀的方式從一個主題上升到另一個主題······與最后一段中“Inthissenseragtimeismoreakintofolkmusicofthenineteenthcenturythantojazz.從這個意義上說,拉格泰姆音樂更像是十九世紀的民間音樂,而不是爵士樂。由此對應可推知有“folk-dancesteps民間舞蹈步伐”的D項正確。

4.單選題

Experimentsinthephotographyofmovingobjects______inboththeUnitedStatesandEuropewellbefore2000.

問題1選項

A.havebeenconducting

B.wasconducted

C.hadbeenconducted

D.beingconducted

【答案】C

【解析】考查語態(tài)和時態(tài)。本題主要考查過去完成時的被動語態(tài)。Experiments“實驗”只能被人做,所以只能用被動語態(tài),再根據(jù)時間線“before2000”可知動作完成在過去的過去,故用過去完成時。句意:早在2000年之前,美國和歐洲就已經(jīng)開展了運動物體攝影的實驗。因此C選項正確。

5.單選題

D

問題1選項

A.just

B.tobestruck

C.rose

D.beside

【答案】B

【解析】考查固定搭配。missdoingsth.意為“避免做某事”,此處表示被動,因此用過去分詞。

試題答案:B;beingstruck

【答案】第1題:B

第2題:A

第3題:C

第4題:D

第5題:B

【解析】1.【試題解析】判斷推理題。題干意思是“網(wǎng)絡的出現(xiàn)已經(jīng)……”。第一段最后一句ThesedaystheNet,whichhasalreadyre-madesucheverydaypastimesasbuyingbooksandsendingmail,isreshapingDonovan’svocationaswell.(如今,網(wǎng)絡已經(jīng)改變了購書和寄信等日常娛樂活動,也正在重塑Donovan的情報員職業(yè))可知,網(wǎng)絡的出現(xiàn)是改造了情報部門的工作。A項“得到了Donovan等粉絲的支持”,文中第一句WildbillDonovanwouldhavelovedtheInternet.(Donovan會愛上互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的),這里用的虛擬語氣,且從后面的內容也可以得知,在Donovan做情報員期間互聯(lián)網(wǎng)還沒有出現(xiàn),所以A項錯誤;C項“恢復/還原許多普遍的消遣活動”,文中說的是互聯(lián)網(wǎng)改變了人們日常生活的方式,如買書、發(fā)郵件等,這里是改變而不是恢復,因此C項錯誤;D項“復興了間諜這個職業(yè)”,原文沒有提到間諜行業(yè)消失的信息,所以復興一詞不正確。該題B項“重塑了情報行業(yè)”正確。

2.【試題解析】主旨大意題。題干意思是“文中提到Donovan的故事是用來……”。A項“介紹網(wǎng)絡間諜的主題”,B項“展示他是如何為美國而戰(zhàn)”,C項“信息戰(zhàn)爭的一段插曲”,D項“向他對中情局的貢獻致敬”。文章開篇引用Donovan的例子來證明互聯(lián)網(wǎng)的發(fā)展重塑了間諜行業(yè),從而來引出接下來對間諜行業(yè)的論述,因此該題A項正確。

3.【試題解析】語義推測題。題干意思是“第三段第一行makingthebiggestsplash這個短語的意思最有可能是……”。A項“制造最大的麻煩”,B項“盡最大的努力”,C項“取得最大的成功”,D項“有最廣泛的名氣”。第三段講的內容是作為一家私人情報分析公司,Straitford通過將間諜活動的成果(覆蓋從智利到俄羅斯的國家)賣給其他公司來賺錢;它的許多預測都可以在網(wǎng)站上看到;由此可以推斷Straitford公司是這個間諜行業(yè)的佼佼者,因此A項和B項都不符合題意;另外,文中對Straitford公司的名氣并沒有特別提到,所以該題C項最符合題意。

4.【試題解析】判斷推理題。題干意思是“從第四段可以知道……”。第四段主要講的是Friedman將互聯(lián)網(wǎng)作為一個雙向的工具,既用來收集信息,又用來發(fā)布信息;A項“關于烏克蘭的語言被證實是真的”,文中只說了Straitford公司做出了關于烏克蘭局勢的預測,原文并沒有說明預言是否成真,所以A項錯誤;B項“Straitford公司保證信息的真實性”,第四段倒數(shù)第二句提到Open-sourcespyingdoeshaveitsrisks,ofcourse,sinceitcanbedifficulttotellgoodinformationfrombad(當然公開來源的間諜活動的確有它的風險,因為很難區(qū)分正確與錯誤的信息),最后一句提到這正是Straitford公司賺錢的原因,所以由此可以推斷出Straitford公司就是靠辨別真?zhèn)吻閳筚嶅X的,它能提供相當可靠的信息,但是沒有保證情報百分百的準確,B項太絕對;C項“Straitford公司商業(yè)的特點是不可預測性”在文中找不到依據(jù);因此該題D項“Straitford公司能提供相當可靠的信息”最符合題意。

5.【試題解析】判斷推理題。題干意思是“Straitford公司對自己的什么最自豪?”。A項“官員地位”,B項“不墨守成規(guī)的形象”,C項“有效率的員工”,D項“軍事背景”。文章最后一句提到Friedman,takesprideinitsindependentvoice.(弗萊德曼說,Straitford公司為其獨立的聲音而感到自豪)可知,Straitford公司引以為豪的是其獨立的立場,A項沒有依據(jù),C項和D項都不是Straitford公司引以為豪之處。因此B項最符合題意。

第5題:A

【解析】1.根據(jù)第一段的第二句“Thepactpavesthewayformoreforeigninvestmentandcompetitionintelecommakers.”該協(xié)議為更多外國投資和電信業(yè)競爭鋪平了道路。選項C符合原文。

2.根據(jù)第二段的二三句“TheU.S.andBritainarewellaheadofthepack,whileThailandwon'tfullyopenuntil2006.only20%ofthe5601billionworldmarketiscurrentlyopentocompetition.”美國和英國遙遙領先意味著他們的電信市場更加開放。選項B正確。

3.根據(jù)第二段的第三句“only20%ofthe5601billionworldmarketiscurrentlyopentocompetition.”說明電信市場還沒有完全開放,所以選項A錯誤;選項B的說法太絕對,也不正確;選項C政府投資在文中沒有提及。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段的內容可知選項D正確。

4.根據(jù)原句“TheU.S.lobbiedhardfortheWTOdeal,confidentthatitsfirmswouldbebigbeneficiariesofmoreopenmarkets.”美國相信他們的企業(yè)將成為更多開放市場中的最大受益者。所以美國一直在為WTO達成協(xié)議說好話,試圖說服WTO盡快達成協(xié)議,所以選項A符合原文。

5.作者在原文中沒有表現(xiàn)出自己的觀點,只是描述詳細的信息,所以選項A正確。

9.WhathaveCanadianscientistsfoundaboutsomeseabirds?

【試題答案】C

【試題解析】題目問關于海鳥,加拿大科學家們有什么發(fā)現(xiàn)?錄音開頭提到,加拿大的科學家發(fā)現(xiàn)海鳥能傳播污染物:在加拿大北部的北極地區(qū),海鳥從海洋中叼走危險的化學品,并運送到其棲息地附近的池塘里。C選項“它們把海洋里污染物運送到它們筑巢的地方”是對錄音原文的同義轉述,因此正確。A選項“污染導致它們?yōu)l臨滅絕”錄音中并沒有提及;B選項“它們攜帶植物種子,并把種子傳播到遙遠的地方”這一信息雖然在錄音中有所提及,但并不是加拿大科學家們的發(fā)現(xiàn),因此排除;D選項“在緊急情況下,它們會傳遞信息”,錄音中說的這種鳥類是信鴿,而不是海鳥,因此不正確。

10.Whatdoesthespeakersayabouttheseabirdscalledfulmars?

【試題答案】D

【試題解析】題目問關于管鼻藿這種海鳥,說話人說了什么?錄音提到,有一種生活在北極的海鳥,名叫管鼻藿(fulmar)。大約有一萬多對管鼻藿在北極圈以北的德文島筑巢。它們會飛行約400公里,穿越海洋尋找食物。D選項“它們飛行400公里尋找食物”與錄音原文表述相符,因此正確。A選項“它們起源于北極地區(qū)的德文島”,錄音只是提及管鼻藿在北極圈以北的德文島筑巢,并沒有表明它們是起源于德文島,因此不正確;B選項“它們在夏季遷徙到北極圈”和C選項“它們能在極端天氣條件下生存”在錄音中均沒有信息提及,因此排除。

11.WhatdidscientistspreviouslynoticeaboutpollutantsintheArctic?

【試題答案】B

【試題解析】題目問科學家以前在北極發(fā)現(xiàn)的污染物是什么?錄音提到,早前,科學家發(fā)現(xiàn)這些污染物是被風吹到北極地區(qū)的。B選項中的werecarriedbythewind是錄音中arriving…withthewind的同義轉述。因此B選項“它們是被風吹來的”正確。A選項“它們毒性越來越大”;C選項“它們毒害了一些管鼻藿”和D選項“它們沒有像大陸上殘留的那么多”在錄音中均沒有相關信息提及,因此排除。

12.Whatdoesthespeakerwarnaboutattheendofthetalk?

【試題答案】B

【試題解析】題目問說話者在演講結束時警告了什么?錄音最后提到,研究人員認為,在鳥類棲息地附近生活、狩獵或捕魚的人們需要提高警惕。這些鳥類本身不會造成危害,但它們攜帶的化學物質則會引起重大問題。由此可知,此處的“重大問題”應是指會對人類造成危害的問題,因此B選項“北極海鳥可能對人類造成危害”正確。A選項“氣候變化對北極海鳥的影響”;C選項“北極海鳥棲息地的減少”和D選項“人類對北極海鳥構成的威脅”在錄音中均沒有信息提及,因此排除。

問題1選項

A.discount

B.plunge

C.negotiation

【答案】C

【解析】考查名詞辨析。bargain表示“交易,便宜貨”;A項discount“折扣”,B項plunge“突然跌落,驟降”,C項negotiation“談判”,D項registration“登記,注冊”。句意:如果巴西特再次失敗,反對派將為與工會合作而討價還價。根據(jù)句意可知,只有C項意思與之相近,故該題選擇C項正確。
