三、聽力新聞（本題共2題，每題1.0分，共2分。）

WhichofthefollowingisINCORRECTabouttheexplosion?

16、WhichofthefollowingisINCORRECTabouttheexplosion?

A、Ithappenedalabusdepot.

B、Itkilledmorethan70peopleandinjured26.

C>ItattackedabusfortheUgandancapitalKampala.

D、Thebagexplodedduringthesecuritycheck.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：信息辨認題。根據新聞內容可知，這次爆炸發生在一個巴士停車場；

造成1人死亡，26人受傷；爆炸襲擊的是一輛準備前往烏干達首都坎帕拉的大巴

車；爆炸起于一個即將裝車的包裹，該包裹在安檢過程中爆炸。因此可以判斷

［A］、［C］、［D］均正確，［B］錯誤,為答案。

17、Whomightberesponsiblefortheexplosion?

A、Kampalaterrorists.

B、Nairobiterrorists.

C、Somaliinsurgents.

D、Notmentioned.

標準答案：C

知識點解析：信息推斷題。題干關鍵詞為mightbe。新聞最后提到，就在幾個小時

前，烏干達警察局長已經警告人們提防圣誕節期間索馬里反叛分子可能制造的襲

擊。由此可以推測，本次爆炸很可能就是索馬里反叛分子制造的。而且新聞中還提

到，去年7月份，索馬里組織青年黨宣稱為造成烏干達首都70多人死亡的爆炸事

件負責，由此也可以作為線索進行推斷。因此答案為［C］。［A］、|B］均屬于無中生

有。

18、Theword^ephemeral"inthefirstparagraphprobablymeans.

A、well-known.

B、longlasting.

C、short-lived.

D、international.

標準答案：C

知識點解析：語義理解題。由題「定位至首段。首句提至I」aone-hit-wonderpop

star,第二句指出thestar'soriginalhitispaddedwithdrosshurriedlybundled

together,既然CD只是熱賣一時，而且內容是匆匆拼湊起來的低劣的東西，可見

不會熱很久，因此fame也會是暫時的，故［0為答案。

19、ThebookWorkforceCrisisaimstochangeacorporatepracticebecause

A、itisbadforthedevelopmentofacoipoiation.

B、manycorporateemployeesaregrowingold.

C、ithascalledforthalotofcriticism.

D、manycorporateemployershaverealizeditsproblem.

標準答案：B

知識點解析：細節題。由題干中的WorkforceCrisis定位至第二段。迅速瀏覽一下

上下文，發現第三段第二句提到該書的主旨；公司長期以來對年輕人投資多，把年

長員工推出去的做法必須改變。接著指出原因:...asbabyboomersage,故［B］為答

案。

20、Thebookreviewer'sattitudetowardsthebookisoneof

A^approval.

ambivalence.

C、ambiguity.

D^skepticism.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：態度題。第四段首句指出Theauthors'originalarticlewasalreadyon

shakyground,可見書評人認為該書作者的觀點有些站不住腳。然后作者用

Mr.C叩pelli的觀點分析原因：至少在美國，有很多方法對人力市場進行補充。例

如，許多生育高峰期出生的人延長下作時間。雖然其下一代人口減少了大約

16%,但再下一代人數比前兩代人都多。此外，還有移民和外國人會進一步消除這

種不均衡。由此可以判斷，作者對文章觀點表示質疑，故［D］為答案。

21、Wecanlearnfromthefifthparagraphthat.

A、USBureauotLaborStatisticsottersinaccuratestatistics.

B、Mr.Dychtwaldobjectstotheauthors,opinion.

C、theUSlaborforcewilleitherrisegreatlyorfallsharply.

D、statisticscanbeusedtosupportdifferentopinions.

標準答案：D

知識點解析：細節題。直接定位至第五段。末句指出“首先這是些數據，之后才是

你想用它們來證明什么”，這說明數據是有選擇地為人所用，這正是［D］表達的內

容，故為答案。由該句可知，不同的人對數據有不同的解釋，這并非是USBureau

ofLaborStatistics提供的數據不準確，只是人們的立場不同面已，排除［A］。首句指

出bothsidescitedtheUSBureauofLaborStatisticsinsupponoftheirease,可以判斷

后面提到的兩個人是觀點對立的雙方。由上一段可知Mr.Cappelli認為該書觀點

不正確，可以判斷這里池是反對的一方，而Mr.Dychtwald則是持肯定態度的一

方，［B］與此矛盾，排除。［C］中的risegreatly和fallsharply在該段沒有提及,排

除。

22、Whichofthefollowingcontentsdoesthebookpossiblycover?

A、Solutionstotheshortageoflabor.

B、Discussiononthewasterofresources.

C、Methodsofthearrangementofwork.

D、Possibilityofthereductionoflivingstandard.

標準答案：C

知識點解析：細節題。按照題目順序定位至末段。第二，三句介紹了Workforce

Crisis這本書的主要內容。第三句提到adiscussionaboutwaysinwhichcompanies

canredesignwork,［C］符合文意，故為答案，首句提到“人力短缺”和“資源浪費”，

這是人們爭論的內容，并非書中涉及內容，排除［A］和［B］。第二句提到該書在開篇

提到長期大量的人力短缺會嚴重降低生活水平。這里并非探討生活水平降低的可能

性，而是警醒人們注意這一現象帶來的負面影響，為后面內容做出鋪墊，引起人們

的閱讀興趣，排除［D］。

五、常識（本題共10題，每題1.0分，共10分。）

23、ThefollowingtermswereputforwardbyFerdinanddeSussureEXCEPT

A、systemicandfunctional.

B、signifierandsignified.

C、langueandparole.

D、synchronicanddiachronic.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：systemicandfunctional(系統和功能)是由韓禮德提出的。

24、LawrenceSterne'swasconsideredasthepioneerworksofthestream-of-

consciousnessnovel.

A^TheLifeandOpinionsofTristramShandy

B、ASentimentalJourney

C、TheAdventuresofRoderickRandom

D^TheAdventuresofPeregrinePickle

標準答案：A

知識點解析：勞倫斯.斯特恩(LawrenceSterne)的《項狄傳》(TheLifeandOpinions

ofTristramShandy)被認為是一部開創意識流小說的先驅之作，故選A。

25、Theclassicsemantictriangleortriangleofsignificancemainlyillustratestheview

of

A、conceptualism.

B、contextualism.

C、structuralism.

D、behaviorism.

標準答案：A

知識點解析：語義三角從概念論的角度揭示了詞、所指事物以及概念之間的關系。

26、ElizabethBennetistheleadingfemalecharacterinJaneAusten's

masterpiece.

ANEmma

B、SenseandSensibility

C^PrideandPrejudice

D、WutheringHeights

標準答案：C

見》）中的女主人公。Emma（《愛瑪》）的女主人公是愛瑪；Senseand

Sensibility（《理智與情感》）有兩位女主人公分別是愛蓮娜和瑪麗安，這兩部也是奧

斯汀的作品。WutheringHeights（《呼嘯山莊》）的女主人公是凱瑟琳，它是艾米麗.

七、漢譯英（本題共1題，每題分，共I分。）

43、人的一生好比馬拉松賽跑。人人都有最后一圈，這一圈通常屬于人生道路漫

長的老人。七老八十的人，穿過艱難的世途，穿過蕓蕓眾生，穿過重重障礙，于是

到了人生的最后一圈。這一圈路程有長有短，跑得有快有慢。有的人穩健有力，

從容不迫：有的人歪歪凱扭，步子不正：有的人拖拖沓沓，蹣跚不前。也有跑入歪

道的人，或跑不快還要老道的人，或不按競賽規則亂跑的人，都是注定要失敗的。

誰能跑好這最后一圈，誰就是勝利者。

標準答案：Humanlifecanbelikenedtoamarathonrace.Allpeople,especiallythe

agedwhohavealreadyseenmuchoflife,havetofacethelastlap.Septuagenariansand

octogenariansarconthelastlapoftheirlivesafterexperiencingthetwistsandturnsof

besluggishwithfalteringsteps.Whatisworse,somemayresortiodishonestpractices;

sonic,beingslowthemselves,mayintentionallystandinthewayofothers;somemayrun

inviolationofthecompetitionrules.Suchpeoplearcdoomedtofail.

知識點解析：1.第一段第一句話中的“好比”可譯為canbelikenedto。2.第一段

第二句中，“這一圈通常屬于人生道路漫長的老人”指的是“尤其是那些年長的人需

要面對人生最后一圈”。3.第一段第三句中，“七老八十的人”可以直譯為

septuagenariansandoctogenarians。“穿過”在句中指的是“經歷”，可根據賓語分別澤

為experiencing,meeting和goingthrough。“艱難的世途”指的是“人生的曲折”,可

譯為twistsandturnsoftheirlife；而“蕓蕓眾生''這里指的是“形形色色的人“，可譯

為allvarietiesofmortalbeingso4.第二段第二句中的四字格較多，翻譯時應注意

英語選詞的押韻和對仗工整。具中，,、穩健有力，從容不迫”可譯為withsteadyand

easysteps；“歪歪扭扭，步子不正''指的是"腳步蹣跚不穩”，可澤為staggerand

totter；而“蹣跚不前"指的是"猶豫不定”,可譯為falteringsteps或是hesitantsteps0

5.翻譯第二段第三句時可以在最后一個逗號處斷句。“跑入歪道”這里指“耍一些欺

人手段“注定”在此句中有貶義的意味，因此可譯為bedoomedto…。

標準答案：因此，談論美國文學并不是要斷稱它與歐洲文學截然不同。總體而

言，美國和歐洲一直是同步的。在任何一個時刻，旅行者都可以在兩地找到相同的

建筑，相同的服裝款式，在它們的書架上也可以找到相同的書。思想像人及商品一

樣自由地越過了大西洋，盡管有時要慢一些。當我提到“美國''習慣、思想等時，我

的意圖是在該詞前加上某種限定性說明，因為美國與歐洲(尤其是英國)之間的差別

經常只表現為程度上的差別，有時僅僅是很小程度上的差別。差異的幅度是非常微

妙的，可能會讓一個看待美國的英國人感到困惑，因為此時他所審視的國家從根本

上講乃是從自己的國家中產生的，在一些方面與自己的國家十分相似，然而卻又是

一個地地道道的外國。兩國之間有著許多奇特的相同之處以及截然不同的地方。例

如，當我們向街對面的人打招呼時，卻發現對方毫無反應，原來自己把一個陌生人

當做朋友了。此時，我們不會感受到(兩國間的)親緣關系，相反，會突然產生一種

陌生感。

知識點解析：(i)TospeakofAmericanliterature,then,isnottoassertthatitis

completelyunlikethatofEurope,tospeakofAmericanliterature這一不定式短語充當

句子主語，toassertthatitiscompletelyunlikethatofEurope這一不定式短語充當句

子表語。TodoAis(not)todoB這一結構常用來說明A與B二者在性質上的相同

(不同)，有時也表示一種假設，即若做A即為做比②keepstep保持同步③find

語修飾exampleso?Iintendsomesortofqualificationtoprecedetheword...在該詞前

加上某種修飾或限定說明。⑤Theamountofdivergenceisasubtieaffair,...aforeign

country這兩句宜合在一起譯，后一句交待英美國家的(細微)差卻為什么會讓英國人

困惑。inimporlanlsenses表示“在重要方面“，”從根本上講”。(6)addoverlappings
