听力原文： Tips for Effective Study Good morning, everyone. I want to talk with you about effective study today. As we know, the most common barrier to success encountered by college students is a lack of effective techniques for study and exam preparation. If you are one of the vast majority of students whose answer to the question of how you study for your tests is that I go over my notes, then you need to take a serious look at your study skills. Here are some suggestions to increase your effectiveness as a student. Firstly, take good notes. Very few students leave high school with this skill. There are some suggestions and observations. (1) Always take the notes for a particular class in the same notebook. Date each entry into your notebook. It is usually best to keep the notes for different classes separate from each other. Your notes should contain as complete a record of what the instructor said as possible. Of course, you should not try to write every word spoken, but don’t leave out ideas. When you study, your notes should call back to your mind the entire sequence of ideas presented. Take care to spell all new words carefully. It you don’t know how to spell a word, ask your instructor to write it on the board. Most will automatically do so for new or difficult terms. (2) Anything the instructor writes on the board should appear in your notes. If the instructor took the time to write it out, he or she considers it important. You should do the same. If possible, try to take your notes in some kind of outline form. The organization of ideas is as important as the content of those ideas, especially when it comes to learning the material for an exam. You might find it useful to have a second color pen or pencil available for highlighting important ideas or indicating vocabulary. Secondly, use your textbook. Don’t expect your instructor to give you detailed, page by page textbook assignments. While some may do so, many do not. College teachers are much more likely to expect you to use your own initiative in making use of the text. (3) In most cases, it will be most useful for you to at least skim the relevant chapters before each lecture. You should receive a course outline at the beginning of the quarter, which will tell you the subject for each day. You may receive chapter

references (or even page references), or your instructor may expect you to be perceptive enough to refer to the Table of Contents. Thirdly, prepare assignments. Here’s another thing we have all been told thousands of times: Don’t leave assignments until the day before they are due! If you have a paper to write or a lab report to prepare, begin it as soon as possible. Remember that many papers or projects require quite a bit of research before you can even begin writing. In most cases, it is impossible to accomplish the necessary preparation in one day or even one week. (4) Another sore point: Be aware of the appearance of the work you submit. You should want to be proud of every assignment you submit, and that includes being proud of its appearance. If possible, assignments should always be typed. Fourthly, prepare for exams. (5) Keep in mind that you want to be an active learner, not a passive one. The more you use and manipulate the information, the better you will understand it. Using and manipulating information in as many ways as possible also maximizes your ability to access your memory. Do not wait until the night before an exam to study! Of course, you should be regularly reviewing your notes, but the preparation still takes time. (6) A good first step in preparation is to read through your notes a couple of times. (7) One of the most universally effective ways to polish off your study activities is to prepare a self test. Never, ever pull an “All-Nighter” on the night before an exam. This is a “freshman trick”, meaning that good students learn very quickly that it is futile. Fifthly, some final suggestions. You should receive a syllabus for each class. (8) Never miss an exam if you can help it. You will rarely be more ready for the exam in two or three days than you are on the scheduled date, and the annoyance the teacher will feel about having to arrange a special exam time for you can actually hurt your grade in the end. Miss exams only if you absolutely have to. Never throw away a handout or a returned assignment or exam. (9) Develop systematic behavior patterns associated with your schoolwork, for example, keeping your class materials together and neat, never allow yourself to be caught at school without the necessary notebooks and materials. (10) It is excellent practice to set aside a study area at home, and to designate a particular span of time each day as study time. OK, that’s all what I want to tell you. Thank you.

SECTION B INTERVIEWDirections: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.Now listen to the interview.

听力原文：W: Hello and welcome to our talk show today. In the next few minutes we’re going to be asking whether you’re after value for money when you’re shopping for fashion; or fashion that’s made with values. We’re all after a bargain on the high street. But how often do you stop to consider how some stores seem to stock low-cost/high fashion items quicker and more cheaply than others? Fulfilling our needs for fast fashion means increased production and competition in clothing made in countries with low-wage economies.(1)For example, in a typical British high street, there are plenty of bargains to be had. Handbags at $ 3.99, T-shirts for a fiver and shoes for under a tenner—all roughly equivalent to the price of an everyday meal. But how many of the people shopping in the high street have stopped to think about how it’s possible to sell clothes so cheaply? Is it because some companies are turning a blind eye to the exploitation in the countries where these items are made? Today, we are honored to invite James Linklater to our program. James is an expert on ethical shopping from the Ethical Consumer Research Association, who amongst other things produced the magazine “Ethical Consumer”. James, just tell us what the Ethical Consumer Research Association is.M: OK, well, the Ethical Consumer Research Association exists to provide information for shoppers, letting them know what the companies are doing behind the brands that they see on the shelves. (2)W: So what makes an ethical shopper? M: Very broadly speaking, people who are concerned about ethical issues want to know that the product they’re buying hasn’t been made at the expense of the people who are producing it, whether it’s in this country or abroad. They might also be concerned with other kinds of issues: whether the company is involved in armaments, or whether they’re donating money to certain political parties. And that as a shopper, you might not want to give your money to that party so therefore you might not want to buy a product from a company who is supporting a political party that you don’t agree with. (3)W: And is there any kind of rule of thumb? Is something that’s more expensive, for example, likely to be more ethical? M: Unfortunately it isn’t always the case that the more expensive something is, the more ethical it is. We can buy very cheap products and it’s very likely that when products are cheap, something has suffered in order to get it to us. Whether it’s the person making it or the animals or the environment. Quality however, is often a good indicator whether something, especially with clothes, has been made well. And unfortunately a lot of ethical products will cost more because they reflect the real cost of bringing that thing into the shops. So something that has been made in a factory where the workers have been paid a proper wage will cost you more to buy, simply because the people making it are getting paid enough to live on.W: Do you have to be well off then to be an ethical shopper? M: It really depends. You don’t have to be rich

to be an ethical shopper. One way of thinking about ethical shopping is thinking about buying less. Sometimes we buy an awful lot more than we need. We buy more items of clothing than we need. So being an ethical shopper really means thinking a bit before you go and spend your money in the shops. Some things may cost a little bit more in the short-run, but be worth it in the long run. If you are paying for quality, something will last you longer and then save you money. And sometimes you can buy things second-hand. There’s a lot of charity shops on the high street to buy good clothes. Sometimes you can look a lot better than someone who’s just bought off the high street because you can have quite a unique look, and the quality that you find in most second-hand shops is really very good these days. (4)So it’s about thinking before you shop.W: Thanks James. Do you think your ideas are popular among the shoppers now? M: I am afraid not. When people buy clothes they wouldn’t want to think of them being made in a sweat shop. But I suppose more start to think about shopping ethically. For example, more youngsters want an ethical buy, but their original thing for that might be that they like to wear clothes which are totally different from everyone else. So they would start shopping for vintage clothes. Obviously some of them would be second-hand. They might buy a lot of clothes from market stalls, from fashion students maybe. Anyhow, I am sure ethical shopping will be popular with consumers and one day, it might appear as appealing as the latest fashion. (5)W: It sounds good and I’ll certainly be doing my clothes shopping with a little bit more care in future. Thank you, James, for all the useful information and valuable advice you have given us.M: My pleasure.

11． According to the hostess, what is the reason for increased competition in clothing industry?

A．The increased cost of raw materials. B．The booming market for fast fashion. C．Consumers’ needs for luxury fashion. D．The increased cost of human resources.

正确答案：B 解析：细节题。访谈节目中主持人的开场白提到消费者对快速变换的时尚的热衷导致低收入国家的服装业产量激增并使该产业竞争白热化：Fulfilling our needs for fast fashion means increased production and competition in clothing made in countries with low-wage economies. 可见只有选项B符合题意，因此答案为B。

12． According to James, the Ethical Consumer Research Association aims to______.

A．provide information that might reveal the company ethics B．study the ethical aspect of consumers while shopping C．do research on ethical consumers’ behavior and values D．give consumers useful information on quality of products

正确答案：A 解析：细节题。访谈节目中的嘉宾James来自伦理消费者研究协会(the Ethical

Consumer Research Association)，该协会的宗旨是提供给消费者厂家在产品品牌幕后的所作所为，换言之，就是提供给消费者有关制造商的生产销售是否符合伦理规范的情报：OK, well the Ethical Consumer Research Association exists to provide information for shoppers, letting them know what the companies are doing behind the brands that they see on the shelves. 所以答案为A。

13． According to James, which of the following does NOT make an ethical shopper?

A．He/she is concerned about the human labor involved in the product. B．He/she wonders whether the company in involved in armaments. C．He/she wonders whether the company manages to make ends meet. D．He/she wants to know which party the company financially supports.

正确答案：C

解析：辨别题。讲座中提到伦理消费者有以下特征：Very broadly speaking, people who are concerned about ethical issues want to know that the product they’re buying hasn’t been made at the expense of the people who are producing it, whether it’s in this country or abroad. They might also be concerned with other kinds of issues: whether the company is involved in armaments, or whether they’re donating money to certain political parties. 可见伦理消费者关注产品生产是否以牺牲人力为代价，他们也关注公司是否与军备生产有关以及公司支持的政党是否与自己支持的一致等，这里只有选项C不属于伦理消费者关注的对象，因此答案为C。

14． According to James, how can one become an ethical shopper? A．One should be wealthy enough. B．One should buy cheap things.

C．One should buy everything second-hand. D．One should buy less.

正确答案：D

解析：细节题。讲座中James给大家的建议就是要成为一个有道德的消费者并不一定需要多么富有，关键是要做到理性购物，少购物或者可以适当购买合适的旧物：You don’t have to be rich to be an ethical shopper. One way of thinking about ethical shopping is thinking about buying less...So being an ethical shopper really means thinking a bit before you go and spend your money in the shops. Some things may cost a little bit more in the short-run, but be worth it in the long-run. And sometimes you can buy things second-hand. 这里的主要干扰项是C，但选项中的everything一词过于极端，因此剔除此选项，所以答案为D。

15． According to James, what is his attitude toward the future development of ethical shopping?

A．Positive. B．Negative. C．Neutral.

D．Ambiguous.

正确答案：A

解析：态度推断题。讲座最后主持人问及James对伦理购物这一理念未来发展的展望，James的态度包含在他的言辞中：Anyhow，I am sure ethical shopping will be popular with consumers and one day, it might appear as appealing as the latest fashion. 由此可见他对伦理购物这一理念在消费者当中的发展还是持乐观态度的，他认为未来会有更多消费者接受这一理念，这种消费方式也会在未来对消费者更具吸引力，因此答案为A。

SECTION C NEWS BROADCASTDirections: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. At the end of each news item, you will be given 10 seconds to answer the questions.

听力原文： (7) North Korea announced Monday it will hold a special ruling party conference just before a controversial satellite launch set for mid-April. The North’s official Korean Central News Agency said the Workers’ Party conference will be held on April 11 in the capital, Pyongyang. Analysts say the delegates are likely to appoint the country’s new leader, Kim Jong Un, to the post of party general secretary, previously held by his father Kim Jong II, who died in December. Pyongyang says the satellite launch is part of the celebration of the 100th birthday of the late leader Kim II Sung, the founder of the communist state and Kim Jong Un’s grandfather. The United States, Russia, South Korea, and Japan all have condemned the planned launch. (8) Even Pyongyang’s long-time ally, China, has expressed rare disapproval, while U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he was “deeply concerned.” Ban said the missile launch — widely seen outside the North as a pretext for testing a nuclear weapons delivery system — threatens regional security. He said it also violates a U.N. resolution prohibiting Pyongyang from using ballistic missile technology. North Korea’s parliament, the Supreme People’s Assembly, is set to hold its annual session on April 13. Analysts say it is likely to promote Kim Jong Un to chairman of the National Defense Commission, another post held by his father.

16． When is North Korea planning to send their satellite? A．On the 100th birthday of their former party leader. B．On April 11th. C．In mid-April. D．On Monday.

正确答案：C

解析：细节题。朝鲜计划在4月中旬发射卫星，这是纪念金日成诞辰100周年的系列活动之一，但发射不是在生日当天。原文是“North Korea announced Monday it will hold a special ruling party conference just before a controversial satellite launch set for mid—April．”

17． China’s attitude toward DPRK’s satellite launch plan can be described as______.

A．concerned B．condemning C．disappointed D．disapproving

正确答案：D 解析：细节题。中国对朝鲜发射卫星并不赞同。原文是“China，has expressed rare disapproval．”

PART II READING COMPREHENSION (30 MIN)Directions: In this section there are four reading passages followed by a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice.

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife. However little known the feelings or views of such a man may be on his first entering a neighborhood, this truth is so well fixed in the minds of the surrounding families, that he is considered the rightful property of some one or other of their daughters. “My dear Mr. Bennet,” said his lady to him one day, “have you heard that Netherfield Park is let at last?” Mr. Bennet replied that he had not. “ But it is,” returned she; “for Mrs. Long has just been here, and she told me all about it. “ Mr. Bennet made no answer. “Do you not want to know who has taken it?” cried his wife impatiently. “You want to tell me, and I have no objection to hearing it. “ This was invitation enough. “Why, my dear, you must know, Mrs. Long says that Netherfield is taken by a young man of large fortune from the north of England; that he came down on Monday in a chaise and four4 to see the place, and was so much delighted with it, that he agreed with Mr. Morris immediately; that he is to take possession before Michaelmas, and some of his servants are to be in the house by the end of next week. “ “What is his name?” “ Bingley. “ “Is he married or single?” “Oh! Single, my dear, to be sure! A single man of large fortune; four or five thousand a year. What a fine thing for our girls!” “How so? How can it affect them?” “My dear Mr. Bennet,” replied his wife, “how can you be so tiresome! You must know that I am thinking of his marrying one of them. “ “Is that his design in settling here?” “Design! Nonsense, how can you talk so! But it is very likely that he may fall in love with one of them, and therefore you must visit him as soon as he comes. “ “I see no occasion for that. You and the girls may go, or you may send them by themselves, which perhaps will be still better, for as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr. Bingley may like you the best of the party. “ “ My dear, you flatter me. I certainly have had my share of beauty, but I do not pretend to be anything extraordinary now. When a woman has five grown-up daughters, she ought to give over thinking of her

own beauty. “ “In such cases, a woman has not often much beauty to think of. “ “But, my dear, you must indeed go and see Mr. Bingley when he comes into the neighborhood. “ “ It is more than I engage for, I assure you. “ “ But consider your daughters. Only think what an establishment it would be for one of them. Sir William and Lady Lucas are determined to go, merely on that account, for in general, you know, they visit no newcomers. Indeed you must go, for it will be impossible for us to visit him if you do not. “ “ You are over-scrupulous, surely. I dare say Mr. Bingley will be very glad to see you; and I will send a few lines by you to assure him of my hearty consent to his marrying whichever he chooses of the girls; though I must throw in a good word for my little Lizzy. “ “ I desire you will do no such thing. Lizzy is not a bit better than the others; and I am sure she is not half so handsome as Jane, nor half so good-humored as Lydia. But you are always giving her the preference. “ “ They have none of them much to recommend them,” replied he;” they are all silly and ignorant like other girls; but Lizzy has something more of quickness than her sisters. “ “ Mr. Bennet, how can you abuse your own children in such a way? You take delight in vexing me. You have no compassion for my poor nerves. “ “ You mistake me, my dear. I have a high respect for your nerves. They are my old friends. I have heard you mention them with consideration these last twenty years at least. “ Mr. Bennet was so odd a mixture of quick parts, sarcastic humor, reserve, and caprice, that the experience of three-and-twenty years had been insufficient to make his wife understand his character. Her mind was less difficult to develop. She was a woman of mean understanding, little information, and uncertain temper. When she was discontented, she fancied herself nervous. The business of her life was to get her daughters married; its solace was visiting and news.

18． The very beginning sentence shows the author’s______. A．Enthusiasm B．Optimism C．Humor D．Cynicism

正确答案：C

解析：细节推断题。故事的第一句“It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a single man in possession of a good fortune, must be in want of a wife”“众所周知，(一个很有钱的单身汉一定想娶一个妻子”，这句话显然体现了作者那种幽默文风。

19． Mr. Bennet treats his wife’s questions______. A．lightly B．seriously C．critically D．gently

正确答案：A

解析：细节推断题。当Mts. Bennet问Mr. Bennet是否知道Netherfield出租给谁的时候，Mr. Bennet的回答是“You want to tell me，and I have no objection to hearing it”(如果你要告诉我，我也不反对听”，这个回答明显是说Mr. Bennet对妻子的问题不感兴趣，不重视。

20． When Mr. Bennet said to his wife: “Mr. Bingley may like you the best of the party”, he intended to be______.

A．sympathetic B．ironical C．supportive D．critical

正确答案：B

解析：细节推断题。在故事中当Mrs. Bennet强烈建议她丈夫去拜见Mr. Bingley时，他丈夫说“You and the girls may go，or you may send them by themselves, which perhaps will be still better, for as you are as handsome as any of them, Mr. Bingley may like you the best of the party”，这句话是一句带有讽刺意味的话语。Mrs. Bennet已经有五个女儿待嫁，而她丈夫说她与他们的女儿一样漂亮，并且Mr. Bingley很可能最喜欢她，这些话是明显的讽刺。

21． The author’s statement “Her mind was less difficult to develop” probably implies that Mrs. Bennet is______.

A．superficial B．profound C．pleasant D．agreeable

正确答案：A

解析：细节推断题。从故事的最后一段可知，Mr. Bennet与Mrs. Bennet已经结婚二十三年，而Mrs. Bennet对其丈夫的性格仍然不了解，于是作者说“Her mind was less difficult to develop”(理解她的思想并不难)，这句话的言外之意是她的智商不高，她很肤浅。

22． Mrs. Bennet’s major concern in her life is______. A．her daughters’ education B．her husband’ s welfare C．her daughters’ marriage D．her own wellbeing

正确答案：C

解析：细节推断题。故事的最后一段最后一句说“The business of her life was to get her daughters married”(她一生的事业就是把她的女儿们嫁出去)，可见Mrs. Bennet的人生目标就是关注女儿们的婚妞大事。

A．Predication analysis B．Componential analysis C．Phonemic analysis D．Grammatical analysis

正确答案：B

解析：本题考查语言学概念。成分分析法(componential analysis)是把词汇分析为一个个具有区别作用的语义特征，根据语义是否包含这些特征来研究、区分词汇意义。加减符号(+，-)用来表示一个词中是否存在某一语义特征。其他三项均与语义特征无关。 知识模块：人文知识

PART V TRANSLATION (60 MIN)

SECTION A CHINESE TO ENGLISHDirections: Translate the following text into English.

43． 凡事不逃避，我喝我的清茶。荷花居污泥而不染，若为怕水污而种在旱地上，它早就枯死了。人生也一样避恶。避丑、避邪，只能说明自己心灵脆弱。一个自我安定的人是不怕环境污染自己的，而有力量影响他人。古代孟母三迁是为了怕他受环境影响，要为自己就没必要逃避了，后来孟子长大成人后也没听说孟母再搬家。 自我安定可不是找一个安定的所在，而恰恰是在紊乱的环境中保持安定的心境。“定”是一种境界，是居于多变之中的不动摇。只有待到这一境界才能掌握自己的方向，才能做到“他饮他的花酒，我喝我的清茶”。

正确答案： I stick to the pureness of my pleasure, never escaping from reality. The lotus grows in the mud without being tainted. If, to avoid the dirt, one plants it on dry clean ground, it simply will not grow. The same holds true for human beings. Shrinking from what is ugly, vile and evil only proves the frailty or’ one’s character. A person in full possession of mental serenity never stands in fear of being mentally contaminated by the filthy environment. On the contrary, he can exercise positive influences all around. Mencius’s mother made three removals during his childhood to keep him away from bad influences, which did not pose any problem for her. History does not record any more of such removals after he grew up. Enjoying the tranquility of mind does not mean hiding oneself in a haven. What is meant is the maintenance of such a mental state in the midst of chaos, i.e. moral immovability amidst kaleidoscopic changes. Only a person who has attained his plane can be a real master of his destiny contenting himself with the purest and simplest pleasure.

SECTION B ENGLISH TO CHINESEDirections: Translate the following text into Chinese.

44． In the new millennium I want to see disabled people acquiring the same degree of control over their lives that other people have. To be disabled is to be no less human than anyone else, but far too often disabled people still have their lives ruled by others. No able-bodied person would put up with it. Access to intellectual opportunities and jobs as well as buildings and public transport need to be regarded as rights, not gifts society is generous enough to bestow on disabled people. Institutions are generally willing to adapt their buildings, but only when a disabled person needs them-and afterwards you hear grumbles that the money was wasted because “you never see” a disabled person using the new facilities. The record is appalling. Even the recent Disability Discrimination ACT fails to cover areas like education and transport, areas that are absolutely crucial if full citizen’s rights are to be extended to the disabled. Until recently people with disabilities were not legally allowed to use the London Underground. Now there are a few stops, but still not remotely enough.

正确答案：在新千年里，愿残疾人能获得与他人一样驾驭自己生活的能力。

身有残疾并不等于低人一等，但是残疾人的生活仍受到他人主宰的情况比比皆是。对于任何一个身体健全的人来说，这种情况都是无法忍受的。 残疾人不仅要能进入建筑物，使用公共交通工具，而且要有受教育的机会，能获得工作，这应被视为权利，而不应看作社会慷慨施舍给残疾人的礼物。公共机构通常愿意改造其建筑物，但只是在残疾人需要使用这些建筑物时才改造，而且过后就会听到他们抱怨说，钱白白浪费了，因为“根本看不见”残疾人使用新设施。 残疾人的境遇遭透了。甚至最近颁布的《反歧视残疾人法》也没有把教育和交通之类的领域包括进去．要想把公民的全部权利推广到残疾人身上，这些领域至关重要。直到最近，法律才允许残疾人使用伦敦地铁。现在有了几个可供残疾人使用的地铁站，但还远远不够。
