一、Part I Reading Comprehension(总题数:0,分数:0.00) 二、Passage 1(总题数:1,分数:7.50)
The single business of Henry Thoreau, during forty odd years of eager activity, was to discover an economy calculated to provide a satisfying life. His one concern, which gave to his ramblings in Concord fields a value of high adventure, was to explore the true meaning of wealth. As he understood the problems of economics, there were three possible solutions open to him, to exploit himself, to exploit his fellows, or to reduce the problem to its lowest denominator. The first was quite impossible——to imprison oneself in a treadmill when the morning called to great adventure. To exploit one's fellows seemed to Thoreau's sensitive social conscience an even greater infidelity. Freedom with abstinence seemed to him better than serfdom with material well-being, and he was content to move to Walden Pond and set about the high business of living, \"to front only the essential facts of life and to see what it had to teach.\" He did not advocate that other men should build cabins and live isolated. He had no wish to dogmatize concernig the best mode of living——each must settle that for himself. But that a satisfying life should be lived, he was virtually concerned. The story of his emancipation from the lower economics is the one romance of his life, and Walden is his great book. It is a book in praise of life rather than of Nature, a record of calculating economies that studied saving in order to spend more largely. But it is a book of social criticism as well, in spite of its explicit denial of such a purpose. In considering the true nature of economy he concluded, with Ruskin, that the cost of a thing is the amount of life which is required in exchange for it, immediatey or in the long run. In Walden Thoreau elaborated the text: \"The only wealth is life.\\

三、Passage 2(总题数:1,分数:7.50)
Montaigne's hold on his readers arises from many causes. There is his frank and curious self-delineation. That interests, because it is the revelation of a very peculiar nature. Then there is the positive value of separate thoughts imbedded in iris strange whimsicality and humor. Lastly, there is the perennial charm of style, which is never a separate quality, but rather the amalgam and issue of all the mental and moral qualities in a man's possession, and which bears the same relation to these that light bears to the mingled elements that make up the orb of the sun. And style, after all, rather than thought, is the immortal thing in literature. In literature, the charm of style is indefinable, yet all subduing, just as fine manners are in social life. In reality, it is not of so much consequence what you say, as how you say it. Memorable sentences are memorable on account of some irradiating word. \"But Shadwell never deviates into sense, for instance.\" Young Roscius, in his provincial barn, will repeat you the great soliloquy of Hamlet, and although every word may be given with tolerable correctness, you find it just as commonplace as himself. The great actor speaks it, and you \"read Shakespeare as by a flash of lightning\". And it is in Montaigne's style, in the strange freaks and turnings of his thought, his constant surprises, his curious alternations of humor and melancholy, his careless, familiar form of address, and the grace with which everything is done, that his charm lies, and which makes the hundredth perusal of him as pleasant as the first.
(分数:7.50)
(1).Literature lives because of the author's ______.(分数:1.50) A.ideas B.humor C.surprises D.style √

C.straightforward D.sensible
解析:答案的依据是:But Shadwell never deviates into sense。
(4).Roscius' reading of Hamlet is poor because he himself is ______.(分数:1.50) A.a farmer B.an actor C.incorrect D.ordinary √
解析:文中说,年轻的Roscius在狭窄的畜舍中老是向你重复哈姆雷特著名的独白,尽管吐词清楚,但是你会发现他的朗读像他本人一样普通。
(5).According to the author, style includes all of the items below EXCEPT ______.(分数:1.50) A.familiarity B.surprise C.thoughts √ D.contrast
解析:作者在3、4、5句中将thoughts(思想)和style(风格)区分开来,所以答案应选C。
四、Passage 3(总题数:1,分数:7.50)
Many critics of the current welfare system argue that existing welfare regulations foster family instability. They maintain that those regulations, which exclude most poor husband and wife families from Aid to Families with Dependent Children assistance grants, contribute to the problem of family dissolution. Thus, they conclude that expanding the set of families eligible for family assistance plans or guaranteed income measures would result in a marked strengthening of the low income family structure. If all poor families could receive welfare, would the incidence of instability change markedly? The unhappily married couple, in most cases, remain together out of a sense of economic responsibility for their children, because of the high costs of separation, or because of the consumption benefits of marriage. The formation, maintenance, and dissolution of the family is in large part a function of the relative balance between the benefits and costs of marriage as seen by the individual members of the marriage. The major benefit generated by the creation of a family is the expansion of the set of consumption possibilities. The benefits from such a partnership depend largely on the relative dissimilarity of the resources or basic endowments each partner brings to the marriage. Persons with similar productive capacities have less economic \"cement\" holding their marriage together. Since the family performs certain function society regards as vital, a complex network of social and legal buttresses has evolved to reinforce marriage. Much of the variation in marital stability across income classes can be explained by the variation in costs of dissolution imposed by society, e. g. division of property, alimony, child support, and the social stigma attached to divorce.
Marital stability is related to the costs of achieving an acceptable agreement on family consumption and production and to the prevailing social price of instability in the marriage partners social economic group. Expected AFDC income exerts pressures on family instability by reducing the cost of dissolution. To the extent that welfare is a form of government subsidized alimony payments, it reduces the institutional costs of separation and guarantees a minimal standard of living for wife and children. So welfare opportunities are a significant determinant of family instability in poor neighborhoods, but this is not the result of AFDC regulations that exclude most intact families from coverage. Rather, welfare instability occurs because public assistance lowers both the benefits of marriage and the costs of its disruption by providing a system of government subsidized alimony payments.
(分数:7.50)
(1).Some criticize the current welfare regulations because ______.(分数:1.50)
A.those regulations encourage family dissolution √
B.the low-income families are not given enough family assistance grants C.they expand the set of families eligible for family assistance D.the guaranteed income measures are increased
解析:一些人批评现行的福利条例,因为这些条例促成了家庭的解体。答案的依据是本文开头的两句。这两句的意思是,许多批评现行福利制度的人认为,现行的福利条例促成了家庭关系的不稳定。由于这些条例把大多数由贫困夫妻组成的家庭排除在外,没有让他们享受为需要扶养的孩子所提供的津贴,因而导致了家庭的解体。
(2).According to this passage, family stability depends on ______.(分数:1.50) A.the couple's earning ability
B.the relative balance between the benefits and costs of marriage √ C.how much possessions the couple have before marriage D.a network of social and legal support
解析:根据这篇短文,家庭的稳定取决于婚姻的益处和婚姻的成本之间相对的平衡。作者在第二段第一句中明确指出了婚姻稳定的因素:与实现家庭消费和产出平衡的成本有关。
(3).All of the following are mentioned by the author as factors tending to perpetuate a marriage EXCEPT ______.(分数:1.50) A.the stigma attached to divorce B.the social class of the partners √ C.the cost of alimony and child support D.the loss of property upon divorce
解析:这是一道细节题。作者在第一段最后一句提到了A(the stigma attched to divorce),C(the cost of alimony and child support)和D(the loss of property upon divorce),它们均是使婚姻持久的因素,没有提到B。
(4).The author argues that ______.(分数:1.50)
A.the agreement between couples reinforce marital stability B.expected AFDC income helps to strengthen family stability C.AFDC regulations are to blame for family instability
D.public assistance upsets the balance between benefits and costs of marriage √
解析:根据第一段的“the formation...”得知,作者认为婚姻家庭的稳定与婚姻的获益和成本间的平衡有关。而最后一段末句指出公共福利的资助既降低了婚姻的获益,也减少了其解体的成本,因而导致了由于福利引起的婚姻的不稳定。
(5).The tone of the passage can best be described as ______.(分数:1.50) A.confident and optimistic B.scientific and detached √ C.discouraged and alarmed D.polite and sensitive
解析:作者在文中理性而又客观地分析了造成家庭婚姻解体的诸多因素,故选 B。
五、Passage 4(总题数:1,分数:7.50)
The war was the most peaceful period of my life. The window of my bedroom faced southeast. My mother had curtained it, but that had small effect. I always woke up with the first light and, with all the responsibilities of the previous day melted, felt myself rather like the sun, ready to shine and feel joy. Life never seemed so simple and dear and full of possibilities as then. I stuck my feet out under the sheets—I called them Mrs. Left and Mrs. Right—and invented dramatic situations for them in which they discussed the problems of the day. At least Mrs. Right did; she easily showed her feelings, but I didn't have the same control of Mrs. Left, so she mostly contented herself with nodding agreement.
They discussed what Mother and I should do during the day, what Santa Claus should give a fellow for Christmas, and what steps should be taken to brighten the home. There was that little matter
of the baby, for instance. Mother and I could never agree about that. Ours was the only house in the neighborhood without a new baby, and Mother said we couldn't afford one till Father came back from the war because it cost seventeen and six. That showed how foolish she was. The Geneys up the road had a baby, and everyone knew they couldn't afford seventeen and six. It was probably a cheap baby, and Mother wanted something really good, but I felt she was too hard to please. The Geneys' baby would have done us fine.
Having settled my plans for the day, I got up, put a chair under my window, and lifted the frame high enough to stick out my head. The window overlooked the front gardens of the homes behind ours, and beyond these it looked over a deep valley to the tall, red-brick house up the opposite hillside, which were all still shadow, while those on our side of the valley were all lit up, though with long storage shadows that made them seam unfamiliar, stiff and painted.
After that I went into Mother's room and climbed into the big bed. She woke and I began to tell her of my schemes. By this time, though I never seem to have noticed it, I was freezing in my nightshirt, but I warmed up as I tallied until the last frost melted. I fell asleep beside her and woke again only when I heard her below in the kitchen, making breakfast.

解析:他早晨醒来以后,总是试图制定当天的计划。作者在倒数第二段开头说,制定完当天的计划以后,他就起床,把椅子放在窗前,把窗框高高地顶起,探出他的头。 (3).What did the author think of his mother?(分数:1.50) A.She was stubborn. √ B.She was poor.
C.She was not very intelligent. D.She did not love him very muc
解析:作者认为他母亲很顽固。作者说,要讨好他母亲很难(she was too hard to please),故选A。 (4).Where was the author's father during the war?(分数:1.50) A.He was out on business. B.He was working in another town. C.He went traveling.
D.He was fighting in the front. √
解析:在战争期间,作者的父亲在前线作战。答案的依据是:we couldn't afford one till Father came back from the war。
(5).In which month did the story probably take place?(分数:1.50) A.In January. B.In September. C.In December. √ D.In November.

八、Part Ⅳ English-Chinese Translation(总题数:1,分数:15.00)
71.Vacations were once the prerogative of the privileged few, even as late as the 19th century. Now they are considered the right of all, except for such unfotrunate masses as, for example, the bulk of puplation in certain countries, for whom life, save for sleep and brief periods of rest, is uniterrupted toil.
Vacations are more necessary now than before because today the average life is less well-rounded and has become increasingly compartmentalized. 72. I suppose the idea of vacations, as we conceive it, must be incomprehensible to primitive peoples. Rest of some kind has of course always been a part of the rhythm of human life, but earlier ages did not find it necessary to organize it in the way that modern man has done. Holidays and feast days were sufficient.
With modern man's increasing tensions, with the stultifying quality of so much of his work, this break in the year's routine became steadily more necessary. 73. Vacations became mandatory for the purpose of renewal and repair. And so it came about that in the United States, the most self-indulgent of nations, the most tense and compartmentalized, vacations have come to take a predominant place in domestic conversation.

__________________________________________________________________________________________ 正确答案:( Ohina's Overpopulation'
It is known to all that China has too large a population of more than 1.3 billion, which is a serious problem worth considering. Such a population explosion is the biggest barrier that prevents China's economy from developing rapidly. It has brought about an array of social problems related to traffic, housing, education, employment, etc.
China's overpopulation exists for many reasons. In my view, there are mainly two reasons. First, some Chinese people are seized with the traditional idea that more children represent more manpower and more happiness. They fail to carry out the fundamental national policy of birth control. Second, many families are affected by the feudal ideology that a boy is much better than a girl. If they have a son, they may carry out the policy of birth control. If they don't have a son, they may continue giving birth to children until they have got a son.
Although China has implemented the national policy of family planning for more than twenty years, which helps China's shift from overpopulation to zero population growth, it is still faced with the problem of overpopulation. In some areas, especially rural areas, some families still give birth to two children, three children or more, which hampers the implementation of family planning. From the bottom of my heart, I hope there will be a change for the better.) 解析:
