2007年英语一阅读第一篇

It was a winter morning, just a couple of weeks before Christmas 2005. While most people were warming up their cars, Trevor, my husband, had to get up early to ride his bike four kilometers away from home to work. On arrival, he parked his bike outside the back door as he usually does. After putting in 10 hours of labor, he returned to find his bike gone. 那是一个冬天的早晨,就在2005年圣诞节前的几周。当大多数人还在预热汽车时,我丈夫特雷弗就不得不早早起床,骑自行车去离家四公里的地方去上班。到公司后,他像往常一样把自行车停在后门外。工作10小时后,准备回家时他发现他的自行车不见了。 The bike, a black Kona 18 speed, was our only transport. Trevor used it to get to work, putting in 60-hour a week to support his young family. And the bike was also used to get groceries, saving us from having to walk long distances from where we live. 这辆黑色的科纳18速自行车是我们唯一的交通工具。特雷弗用它去上班,每周工作60小时来养活他的年轻家庭。自行车也被用来购物,让我们不必从我们居住的地方走很远的路。 I was so sad that someone would steal our bike that I wrote to the newspaper and told them our story. Shortly after that, several people in our area offered to help. One wonderful stranger even bought a bike, then called my husband to pick it up. Once again my husband had a way to get to and from his job. It really is an honor that a complete stranger would go out of their way for someone they have never met before. 我很伤心有人偷了我们的自行车,于是我写信给报社,告诉他们我们的故事。不久之后,我们地区的一些人主动提出帮助我们。一位陌生人甚至买了一辆自行车,然后打电话让我丈夫去取。我丈夫又有办法上下班了。一个完全陌生的人会为一个他们从未见过的人不辞辛劳,这真的值得称赞。 People say that a smile can be passed from one person to another, but acts of kindness from strangers are even more so. This experience has had a spreading effect in our lives because it strengthened our faith in humanity as a whole. And it has influenced us to be more mindful of ways we, too, can share with others. No matter how big or how small, an act of kindness shows that someone cares. And the results can be everlasting. 人们说微笑可以人传人,陌生人的友善行为更是如此。这次经历在我们的生活中产生了深远的影响,因为它加强了我们对整个人类的信仰,也让我们更加注意我们与他人分享的方式。善意的行为不管大还是小,都表明有人关心,结果可以永恒。

在很多考试大特有的解题技巧中,专家都告诉考生一定要先看文章的标题,并且要读懂标题。因为标题一般情况下就揭示了文章的论述对象和主旨。了解标题对掌握整篇文章非常有帮助。其实标题的作用除了掌握文章主旨,也可以直接用来解题。   在阅读理解的题目中,经常会有考查文章主旨、概括文章大意或者作者意图的题目类型出现。很多考生在遇到这种题的时候都会认为这是需要通篇阅读文章,并且要对文章内容有充分的理解才能将这种题目做正确。但是在实际做题中,考生可以巧妙的利用多种渠道,并不需要完全理解文章意思。   利用标题解题都是与题目的特殊性有关的,在揭示主题或者阐述文章描述对象的题型上非常有用。而利用标题解题还需要选项的配合,主要分为两种情况:第一、标题内容直接出现在选项中;第二、标题内容在选项中得到解释和进一步阐述。   听起来有点复杂,但是在实际做题中,利用标题解题是一个非常简单易用的方法。下面专家以2007年综合C真题的一道阅读理解为例讲解。   2007年综合类C级阅读理解第一篇:   His Own Way to Express Love   Yesterday was our three-year anniversary. We didn’t do anything romantic; we just walked hand in hand and talked about our past and the future. This was pretty much what I had expected.   Andy is an unromantic guy: no sweet words or roses. Smarted as he is, he is a little bit shy expressing his love. In contrast, I am an outspoken (直言不讳) girl who likes to show her feelings directly. So needless to say, I often feel that he is insensitive. I envy other girls who are surrounded by sweet words.   I was in his sullen mood until I heard a beautiful sentence one day: “If one does not love you the way you like, it does not mean that he does not love you.” This simple but sensible sentence made me think about our happy days and recall his deep concern for me.   One cold winter night, I got a high fever. He hurried to my dormitory and took me to the hospital. He was in such a hurry that he even forgot to wear socks. After arrival, he ran through the hospital handling all the formalities (手续). When I was put on a drip (点滴), he told me interesting stories to make me happy. Being held in his warm arms and listening to his tender (温柔的) voice, I had never felt so safe and comfortable. Gradually, I fell asleep. When I woke up 15 minutes later, he was still mumbling (咕哝地说) to me. He explained that if he had stopping talking I would have woken up. At that moment, I found love in his eyes.   Another time, I had a bad quarrel with my best friend. Although I knew it was my fault, I refused to admit it. I was very angry when he insisted I apologize to her. He said that it was difficult to admit a mistake, but this was what everyone should do. The next morning, I apologized to my friend for her forgiveness.   My unromantic boyfriend cares about my health like my father, understands me like my mother and helps me like my elder brother.   34 The writer tells the reader two stories to show that   A Andy is a romantic guy.   B Andy has his own way to express love.   C Andy is an insensitive guy.   D Andy is a foolish guy.   本题问:作者告诉读者这两个故事来表示什么?大多数考生拿到题就想,考查作者的意图,应该通读全文掌握大意或者阅读文章最后两段寻找表现作者意图的句子或者词语。但是考试大专家提醒考生需要注意的是看完题目不要急着回到文章寻找,而是看看选项,是否根据选项就能判断出正确答案,比如通过排除法,对比法等等,所以这道题一样,看完题目看选项。很容易看到选项B中出现了标题的内容His Own Way to Express Love。选项与文章标题几乎完全一样,既然标题能揭示一篇文章的主旨,那么这里肯定正确选项就是B。   这就是巧用标题解题的第一种,标题内容直接体现在选项中。所以广大考生在考试时不要盲目地阅读文章、查单词,应该是利用多种渠道来解题。   巧用标题解答阅读理解(二)   在职称英语专家的解题技巧里,经常会运用标题来处理问题。前文提到的是标题内容直接出现在选项中,这种技巧非常容易解答也很容易掌握。那么还有一种情况是正确选项将标题的内容进行解释和阐述。这种情况下就需要考生的思维活跃,能巧妙的从选项中找出标题的内容。例题:08年职称英语考试用书的阅读理解第二篇   Electric Backpack   Backpacks are convenient. They can hold your books, your lunch, and a change of clothes, leaving your hands free to do other things. Someday, if you don’t mind carrying a heavy load, your backpacks might also power your MP3 player, keep your cell phone running, and maybe even light your way home.   Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and the Marine Biological Laboratory in Woods Hole3, Mass., have invented a backpack that makes electricity from energy produced while its wearer walks. In military actions, search-and-rescue operations, and scientific field studies, people rely increasingly on cell phones, global positioning system (GPS) receivers, night-vision goggles, and other battery-powered devices to get around and do their work. The backpack’s electricity-generating feature could dramatically reduce the amount of a wearer’s load now devoted to spare batteries, report Rome and his colleagues in the Sept. 9 Science.   The backpack’s electricity-creating powers depend on springs used to hang a cloth pack from its metal frame. The frame sits against the wearer’s back, and the whole pack moves up and down as the person walks. A gear mechanism converts vertical movements of the pack to rotary motions of an electrical generator, producing up to watts.   Unexpectedly, tests showed that wearers of the new backpack alter their gaits in response to the pack’s oscillations(摆动), so that they carry loads more comfortably and with less effort than they do ordinary backpacks. Because of that surprising advantage, Rome plans to commercialize both electric and non-electric versions of the backpack.   The backpack could be especially useful for soldiers, scientists, mountaineers, and emergency workers who typically carry heavy backpacks. For the rest of us, power-generating backpacks could make it possible to walk, play video games, watch TV, and listen to music, all at the same time. Electricity-generating packs aren’t on the market yet, but if you do get one eventually, just make sure to look both ways before crossing the street!   2. What is the most important feature of the backpack invented by Lawrence C. Rome and his colleagues?   A) It produces electricity for electronic devices while the wearer walks.   B) It can be used as cell phones, GPS in the military actions or field studies.   C) It is small and convenient.   D) It is light and easy to carry.   可能大部分考生看到这个题就会根据关键词定位法首先确定关键词,再通过关键词回到原文,然后阅读原句,最后判断得出正确答案。   但是考试大专家强调的是轻松通过考试,希望我们的考生都能以灵活的思维来解题。本题的意思是问Lawrence C. Rome和他同事发明的背包的特点是什么?首先我们应该想到本文的标题是“能发电的背包”。根据文章的标题一般都是文章的中心论述,由此可以推断,整篇文章都和背包以及电有关,那么这个背包的优势是什么呢?当然还是和电有关。再看看选项中只有A中提到了electricity(电),正确答案就肯定是A。

考研英语一2007年第三篇阅读

注意:“但”字后面是重点,也就是说:妈妈爸爸都去参加工作的副作用,即家庭风险加大。后面有讲述了以前 是怎么样的——以前是男人工作,如果男人病倒了或失业了,那么女人可以充当后备军,去工作赚钱。“可是如今”,注意“可是”后面是作者要讲述的重点,现在是2个人赚钱,如果男人和女人同时失业或者别的原因,那么家庭的经济来源就没有了,所以后面的一句话也是对应了前面的一句话“很少有人能看到这些变化的副作用:家庭风险也由此加大了。”

2007年硕士研究生入学考试英语阅读理解试题译文 阅读 Text 1 如果你打算在2006年世界杯锦标赛上调查所有足球运动员的出生证明,那么你很有可能发现一个引人注目的巧合:优秀足球运动员更可能出生于每年的前几个月而不是后几个月。如果你接着调查世界杯和职业比赛的欧洲国家青年队的话,那么你会发现这一奇怪的现象甚至更明显。 什么可以解释这一奇怪的现象呢?下面是一些猜测:a)某种占星术征兆使人具备更高的足球技能;b)冬季出生的婴儿往往具有更高的供氧能力,这增加了踢足球的持久力;c)热爱足球的父母更可能在春季(每年足球狂热的鼎盛时期)怀孕;d)以上各项都不是。 58岁的安德斯•埃里克森是佛罗里达州立大学的一名心理学教授,他说,他坚信“以上各项都不是”这一猜测。在瑞典长大的埃里克森,一直研究核工程,直到他认识到,如果他转向心理学领域,他将会有更多机会从事自己的研究。他的首次试验是在大约30年以前进行的,与记忆相关:训练一个人先听一组任意挑选的数字,然后复述这些数字。“在经过大约20小时的训练之后,第一个试验对象(复述)的数字跨度从7个上升到20个,” 埃里克森回忆说。“该试验对象不断进步,在接受大约200个小时的训练后,他复述的数字已经达到80多个。” 这一成功,连同后来证明的记忆本身不是遗传决定的研究,使得埃里克森得出结论,即记忆过程是一种认知练习,而不是一种本能练习。换句话说,无论两个人在记忆力能力上可能存在怎样的天生差异,这些差异都会被每个人如何恰当地“解读”所记的信息所掩盖。埃里克森确信,了解如何有目的地解读信息的最佳方法就是一个为人所知的有意练习过程。有意练习需要的不仅仅是简单地重复一个任务。相反,它包括确定明确的目标、获得即时的反馈以及技术与结果的浓缩。 因此,埃里克森和他的同事开始研究包括足球领域在内的广泛领域中专业执行者。他们收集了能够收集的所有资料,不只是表现方面的统计数据和传记详细资料,还包括他们自己对取得很高成就的人员进行的实验室实验结果。他们的研究得出了一个非常令人惊奇的结论——我们通常称为天分的特征被高估了。或者,换句话说,专业执行者――无论是在记忆还是手术方面,在芭蕾还是计算机编程领域――几乎总是培养的,而不是天生的。 Text 2 在过去的几年,《星期日报》的增刊《漫步》开设了一个名为“询问玛丽琳”的专栏。人们被邀请去询问玛丽琳•沃斯•萨文特,玛丽琳•沃斯•萨文特在10岁时测试的智力水平达到别人23岁时的水平,这使得她的智商高达228――是有记录的最高水平。智商测试要求你完成口头和视觉分析,要求你在纸张被折叠、剪切后想象它的形状,要求你推论数字的顺序,还有其他类似的项目。所以,当沃斯•萨文特面对普通人(智商为100)提出的像“热爱与喜爱之间的区别是什么?”或者“运气与巧合的特征是什么?”这样的问题时,她感到有点困惑。设想物体、判断数字模式的能力如何使一个人能够回答难倒了一些最杰出的诗人和哲学家的问题,这可并不那么显而易见。 毫无疑问,智力包含的不仅仅是一次测试所得的分数。而聪明意味着什么?可以明确显示智力有多少?我们能够从神经学、遗传学、计算机科学以及其他领域了解的智力又有多少? 人类有关智力的定义性术语似乎仍然是智商分数,即使人们并不像以前那样经常进行智商测试。智商测试主要表现为两种形式:斯坦福—比奈特智力衡量表和威斯勒智力衡量表(两种都包含成人和儿童测试类型)。由于这些测试一般要花费几百美元,因此通常只有心理学家才进行这些测试,尽管这些测试的变种存在于书店和环球网上。像沃斯•萨文特得到这样的超高分数也再不可能,因为现在的分数依据的是相同年龄者的统计学群体分布状况,而不是简单地通过实足年龄乘以100来划分智能年龄。其他标准测试,比如学术能力检测以及研究生入学考试,包含了智商测试的主要方面。 罗伯特•杰•斯顿伯格认为,这样的标准测试不可能评估在学校和生活中取得成功所需的所有重要因素。在其名为“智力测试如何明智?”的文章中,斯顿伯格指出,传统的测试最恰当地评估了分析能力和语言表达能力,但没有测量创造性和实际知识,这些也是解决问题和在生活中取得成功的关键因素。而且,一旦种群或环境发生变化,智商测试就不一定预测得那么准确。研究发现,如果在低压力状况下进行智商测试,那么这种测试就可以预测出领导才能,但是,在高压力状况下,智商测试所得的结果与领导才能的关系是否定的,也就是说,它预测的结果是相反的。任何经历过学术能力检测的人都会认为,应试能力也很重要,无论是知道何时应该进行推测,还是知道应该忽略什么问题。 Text 3 在过去的十几年里,美国那些曾经可以依靠辛勤劳动和公平条件以维持其收入稳定的中产阶层家庭被经济风险和新现实改变了。如今,一份解雇通知书、一个不利的诊断结果或者配偶的去世都可能在几个月之内将一个家庭从稳定的中产阶层家庭降格成为一个新贫困家庭。 在仅仅一代人的时间里,数百万母亲出去工作,改变了基本的家庭经济状况。学者、决策者以及各类批评人士对这些变化的社会意义争论不休,但是,很少有人关注这些变化的副作用:家庭的风险增加了。如今的家庭根据其新的双收入限度安排开支。因此,它们失去了它们在经济萧条时期曾经有过的缓解举措——一个后备挣钱者(通常是妈妈),如果家庭的主要挣钱者失业了或者病倒了,她可以出去工作。这种“额外工人效应”可以支撑失业保险或残疾保险提供的安全网,以便帮助家庭渡过难关。但现在,家庭财产的损失再也不可能通过呆在家里的其他伴侣的额外收入弥补了。 在同一时期,要求家庭在其退休收入中承担更多风险。钢铁厂的工人、航空公司的职员以及汽车产业工人加入了数百万不得不担心利率、股市波动以及可能比其退休收入存在时间更长的严酷现实家庭。在去年的大部分时间里,布什总统一直致力于将社会保险体制转变成一种储蓄存款账户模式,要求退休人员将其大多数或所有保障报酬用来交换依靠投资回报所得的报酬。对于更年轻的家庭来说,前景不容乐观。卫生保健和家庭承担份额的绝对成本都上涨了——而且,最近实施的健康储蓄计划正在从立法机关扩展到沃尔玛员工,包含大量更高的减免,并且给家庭未来的卫生保健带来许多新投资风险。甚至人口统计状况也对中产阶层家庭不利,因为有一个体弱、年迈的父母——以及由此而产生的所有物资和经济援助——就在仅仅一代人的时间里增长了8倍。 从中产阶层家庭的角度来看,大多数情况是可以理解的,这根本不像一种发挥更多支付能力的机会,而是像一种将经济风险大规模转向那些已经负担过重的家庭的令人恐惧的加速行为。经济副作用已经开始,政治副作用可能也将开始。 Text 4 不鸣则易,一鸣惊人(本来从不下雨的,却下起了倾盆大雨)。就在老板和董事会用最终挑选出其最严重的清算帐目和顺从问题以及改善其无效的公司管理之际,一个新的问题预示着让他们——特别是在美国——赢得那种令人不愉快的头条新闻的危险,这些头条新闻不可避免地给这些领导者带来管理方面的附属效应:信息的不安全性。迄今为止,信息保护工作一直被留给临时的、低层次的信息技术人员承担,并且只被看成是信息资源丰富产业所关切的一个方面,比如银行业、电信业以及航空旅行业,如今,信息保护则成为各类商业老板议事日程中需要优先考虑的问题。 今年,好几次消费者和员工信息的重大泄密事件使得管理人员匆忙检查其复杂的信息系统和商业程序,以便寻找潜在的弱点——这些泄密事件发生在像时代华纳、美国国防部承包的科学应用国际公司以及加州大学伯克利分校这样的不同机构。 斯坦福大学商学院的海姆•门德尔森认为“信息正在成为一种需要像保护其他财产一样而保护的财产”。“保护消费者信息的能力是市场价值的关键因素,这是董事会应该为了股东的利益而承担的责任”。纽约哥伦比亚商学院的埃尼•诺姆暗示,事实上,正如存在公认会计原则的观念一样,或许可能应该是采取公认安全措施的时候了。他表示“为安全、备份以及恢复确定适当的投资标准是一个管理问题,不是技术问题。”。 其神秘在于,对任何老板来说,这可能是一个意外。然而,对于最迟钝的管理人员来说,显而易见的应该是,作为最珍贵经济财产的诚信被轻易破坏,而要恢复诚信却代价高昂,而且,很少有什么比一个公司让敏感的个人信息落入不妥当人之手更可能破坏诚信的了。 这类事情的现状可能受到缺乏有关信息泄露的法律处罚(在美国,不是在欧洲)的激励,尽管还没有的到证实。直到加利福尼亚最近通过了一项法律,美国的公司不必告知任何人信息何时泄露,甚至包括受害人。这种情况可能迅速改变:如今,许多被提议的信息保护立法正在华盛顿特区讨论。同时,6月17日有关偷窃大约4000万信用卡账户信息事件的披露给得此前一天美国商务委员会的一个重要决定蒙上阴影,该决定请全美国注意,如果公司没有提供适当的信息安全保护措施,那么监管人员就会采取行动。

沉默在不同文化群体里代表的意义也不相同,它可能意味着沉思或者是无话可说时的空洞。某一谈话中的沉默可能也代表倔强、不安或担忧。在某些文化群体眼中,沉默可能代表着极其不舒服,所以人们可能会努力尝试来填满谈话中的每一个间隙。其他文化群体的人重视沉默并认为它是理解人的需求所必需的。 就像一些传统的中国人和泰国人一样,很多美国本地人都认为沉默是有价值的,是人们交流的基本部分之一。所以当一个人来自这些文化之一的人在讲话时突然停住了,可能那个人是在继续之前暗示听众去思考他之前说了什么。在这些文化里,沉默是呼吁对方做出反应。 其他文化可能会以其他方式使用沉默,特别是在处理人与人之间的冲突或者是不同权利阶层的人们的关系时。比如俄罗斯人、法国人和西班牙人可能用沉默来表示对讨论话题的双方的赞同。然而,墨西哥人可能在被有权有势的人下达命令时保持沉默而不是用争吵来粗鲁的对待她/他。另一种沉默的使用方式是,亚洲文化中的人可能会将沉默视为尊重的表现,特别是对长者或权威人士。 当护士和其他护理人员发现他们的患者可能经历的个人焦虑时,他们需要意识到沉默所代表的可能含义。护士需要意识到他们对沉默的个人和文化的创造,以便于患者的沉默不会被过早打断或被允许不必要地延长。一个懂得沉默的治愈价值的护士才能用这种理解来帮助来自同一或其他文化的患者的护理。

Come on -Everybody’s doing it. That whispered message, half invitation and half forcing, is what most of us think of when we hear the words peer pressure. It usually leads to no good-drinking, drugs and casual sex. But in her new book Join the Club, Tina Rosenberg contends that peer pressure can also be a positive force through what she calls the social cure, in which organizations and officials use the power of group dynamics to help individuals improve their lives and possibly the , the recipient of a Pulitzer Prize, offers a host of example of the social cure in action: In South Carolina, a state-sponsored antismoking program called Rage Against the Haze sets out to make cigarettes uncool. In South Africa, an HIV-prevention initiative known as LoveLife recruits young people to promote safe sex among their peers. The idea seems promising,and Rosenberg is a perceptive observer. Her critique of the lameness of many pubic-health campaigns is spot-on: they fail to mobilize peer pressure for healthy habits, and they demonstrate a seriously flawed understanding of psychology.” Dare to be different, please don’t smoke!” pleads one billboard campaign aimed at reducing smoking among teenagers-teenagers, who desire nothing more than fitting in. Rosenberg argues convincingly that public-health advocates ought to take a page from advertisers, so skilled at applying peer pressure. But on the general effectiveness of the social cure, Rosenberg is less persuasive. Join the Club is filled with too much irrelevant detail and not enough exploration of the social and biological factors that make peer pressure so powerful. The most glaring flaw of the social cure as it’s presented here is that it doesn’t work very well for very long. Rage Against the Haze failed once state funding was cut. Evidence that the LoveLife program produces lasting changes is limited and mixed. There’s no doubt that our peer groups exert enormous influence on our behavior. An emerging body of research shows that positive health habits-as well as negative ones-spread through networks of friends via social communication. This is a subtle form of peer pressure: we unconsciously imitate the behavior we see every day. Far less certain, however, is how successfully experts and bureaucrats can select our peer groups and steer their activities in virtuous directions. It’s like the teacher who breaks up the troublemakers in the back row by pairing them with better-behaved classmates. The tactic never really works. And that’s the problem with a social cure engineered from the outside: in the real world, as in school, we insist on choosing our own friends. 21. According to the first paragraph, peer pressure often emerges as [A] a supplement to the social cure [B] a stimulus to group dynamics [C] an obstacle to school progress [D] a cause of undesirable behaviors 22. Rosenberg holds that public advocates should [A] recruit professional advertisers [B] learn from advertisers’ experience [C] stay away from commercial advertisers [D] recognize the limitations of advertisements 23. In the author’s view, Rosenberg’s book fails to [A] adequately probe social and biological factors [B] effectively evade the flaws of the social cure [C] illustrate the functions of state funding [D]produce a long-lasting social effect 24. Paragraph 5shows that our imitation of behaviors [A] is harmful to our networks of friends [B] will mislead behavioral studies [C] occurs without our realizing it [D] can produce negative health habits 25. The author suggests in the last paragraph that the effect of peer pressure is [A] harmful [B] desirable [C] profound [D] questionable
