lowed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A),B),C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the
corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the centre.
Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage:
American Indians played a central role in the war known as the American Revolution. To them, however, the dispute between the colonists and England was peripheral. For American Indians the conflict was a war for American Indian independence, and whichever side they chose, they lost it. Mary Brant was a powerful influence among the Iroquois. She was a Mohawk, the leader of the society of all Iroquois matrons, and the widow of Sir William Johnson, Superintendent of Indian Affairs. Her brother, Joseph Brant, is the bestknown American Indian warrior of the Revolution, yet she may have exerted even more influence in the confederacy than he did. She used her influence to keep the western tribes of Iroquois loyal to the English king, George Ⅲ. When the colonists won the war, she and her tribe had to abandon their lands and retreat to Canada. On the other side, Nancy Ward held positions of authority in the Cherokee nation. She had fought as a warrior in the war against the Creeks and as a reward for her heroism was made “Beloved Woman” of the tribe. This office made her chief of the women’s council and a member of the council of chiefs. She was friendly with the white settlers and supported the Patriots during the Revolution. Yet the Cherokees too lost their land.
21.What is the main point the author makes in the passage?
A.Siding with the English in the Revolution helped American Indians regain their land.
B.At the time of the Revolution the Superintendent of Indian Affairs had
little power.
C.Regardless of whom they supported in the Revolution, American Indians lost their land.
D.The outcome of the Revolution was largely determined by American Indian
women.
22.The word “it” in line 5 refers to ____.
A.side B.revolution
C.dispute D.independence
23.How did Ward gain her position of authority?
A.By bravery in battle.
B.By marriage to a chief.
C.By joining the confederacy.
D.By being born into a powerful family.
24.To which tribe did Nancy Ward belong?
A.Mohawk. B.Iroquois. C.Cherokee. D.Creek.
25.According to the passage, what did Mary Brant and Nancy Ward had in co
mmon?
A.Each was called “Beloved Woman” by her tribe.
B.Each influenced her tribe’s role in the American Revolution.
C.Each lost a brother in the American Revolution.
D.Each went to England after the American Revolution.


Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.
Born in 1830 in rural Amherst, Massachusetts, Emily Dickinson spent her entire
life in the household of her parents. Between 1858 and 1862, it was later discovered, she wrote like a person possessed, often producing a poem a day. It was also during this period that her life was transformed into the myth of Amherst. Withdrawing more and more, keeping to her room, sometimes even refusing to see visitors who called, she began to dress only in white—a habit that added to her reputation as an eccentric.
In their determination to read Dickinson’s life in terms of a traditional romantic plot, biographers have missed the unique pattern of her life—her struggle to create a female life not yet imagined by the culture in which she lived. Dickinson was not the innocent, lovelorn and emotionally fragile girl sentimentalized by the Dickinson myth and popularized by William Luce’s 1976 play, the Belle of Amherst. Her decision to shut the door on Amherst society in the 1850’s transformed her house into a kind of magical realm in which she was free to engage her poetic genius. Her seclusion was not the result of a failed love affair, but rather a part of a more general pattern of renunciation through which she, in her quest for selfsovereignty, carried on an argument with the puritan fathers, attacking with wit and irony their cheerless Calvinist doctrine, their stern patriarchal God, and their rigid notions of “true womanhood”.
26.What’s the author’s main purpose in the passage?
A.To interpret Emily Dickinson’s eccentric behavior.
B.To promote the popular myth of Emily Dickinson.
C.To discuss Emily Dickinson’s failed love affair.
D.To describe the religious climate in Emily Dickinson’s time.
27.Which of the following is not mentioned as being one of Emily Dickinson’s eccentricities?
A.Refusing to eat. B.Wearing only white.
C.Avoiding visitors. D.Staying in her room.
28.According to the passage, biographers of Emily Dickinson have traditionally ____.
A.criticized most of her poems
B.ignored her innocence and emotional fragility
C.seen her life in romantic terms
D.blaming her parents for restricting her activities
29.The author implies that many people attribute Emily Dickinson’s seclusion to ____.
A.physical illness B.a failed love affair
C.religious fervor D.her dislike of people
30.It can be inferred from the passage that Emily Dickinson lived in a society that was characterized by ____.
A.strong Puritan beliefs
B.equality of men and women
C.the encouragement of nonconformity
D.the appreciation of poetic creativity

Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.
The railroad industry could not have grown as large as it did without steel. The first rails were made of iron. But iron rails were not strong enough to support heavy trains running at high speeds. Railroad executives wanted to replace them with steel rails because steel was ten or fifteen times stronger and lasted twenty times longer. Before the 1870’s, however, steel was too expensive to be widely used. It was made by a slow and expensive process of heating, stirring and reheating iron ore.
Then the inventor Henry Bessemer discovered that directing a blast of air at melted iron in a furnace would burn out the impurities that made the iron brittle. As the air shot through the furnace, the bubbling metal would erupt in showers of sparks. When the fire cooled, the metal had been changed, or converted to steel. The Bessemer converter made possible the mass production of steel. Now three to five tons of iron could be changed into steel in a matter of minutes.

Just when the demand for more and more steel developed, prospectors discovered huge new deposits of iron ore in the Mesabi Range, a 120long region in Minnesota near Lake Superior. The Mesabi deposits were so near the surface that they could be mined with steam shovels.
Barges and steamers carried the iron ore through Lake Superior to depots on the southern shores of Lake Michigan and Lake Erie. With dizzying speed Gary, Indiana, and Toledo, Youngstown, and Cleveland, Ohio, became major steelmanufacturing centers. Pittsburgh was the greatest steel city of all.
Steel was the basic building material of the industrial age. Production skyroc
keted from seventyseven thousand tons in 1870 to over eleven million tons in 1900.
31.According to the passage, the railroad industry preferred steel to iron because steel was ____.
A.cheaper and more plentiful
B.lighter and easier to mold
C.cleaner and easier to mine
D.stronger and more durable
32.According to the passage, how did Bessemer method make the mass production of steel possible?
A.It directed air at melted iron in a furnace, removing all impurities.
B.It slowly heated iron ore then stirred it and heated it again.
C.It changed iron ore into iron which was a substitute for steel.
D.It could quickly find deposits of iron ore under the ground.
33.According to the passage, where were large deposits of iron uncovered?
A.In Pittsburgh. B.In the Mesabi Range.
C.Near Lake Michigan.D.Near Lake Erie.
34.The words “Barges and steamers” could best be replaced by which of the following?
A.Trains.B.Planes.C.Boats.D.Trucks.
35.It can be inferred from the passage that the mass production of steel
caused ____.
A.a decline in the railroad industry
B.a revolution in the industrial world
C.an increase in the price of steel
D.a feeling of discontent among steel workers

Questions 36 to 40 are based on the following passage:
There were two widely divergent influences on the early development of statistical methods. Statistics had a mother who was dedicated to keeping orderly records of governmental units (state and statistics come from the same Latin root, status) and a gentlemanly gambling father who relied on mathematics to increase his skill at playing the odds in games of chance. The influence of the mother on the offspring, statistics, is represented by counting, measuring, describing, tabulating, ordering, and the taking of censuses—all of which led to modern descriptive statistics. From the influence of the father came modern inferential statistics, which is based squarely on theories of probability.
Descripitive statistics involves tabulating, depicting, and describing collections of data. These data may be either quantitative, such as measures of height, intelligence, or grand level—variables that are characterized by an underlying continuum—or the data may represent qualitative variables, such as sex, college major, or personality type. Large masses of data must generally undergo a process of summarization or reduction before they are comprehensible. Descriptive statistics is a tool for describing or summarizing or reducing to comprehensible from the properties of an otherwise unwieldy mass of data.
Inferential statistics is a formalized body of methods for solving another class of problems that present great difficulties for the unaided human mind. This
general class of problems characteristically involves attempts to make prediction using a sample of observations. For example, a school superintendent wishes
to determine of the proportion of children in a large school system who come to school without breakfast, have been vaccinated for flu, or whatever. Having a little knowledge of statistics, the superintendent would know that it is unnecessary
and inefficient to question each child; the proportion for the entire district could be estimated fairly accurately from a sample of as few as 100 children. Thus, the purpose of inferential statistics is to predict or estimate characteristics of a population from a knowledge of the characteristics of only a sample of the population.
36.With what is the passage mainly concerned?
A.The drawbacks of descriptive and inferential statistics.
B.Applications of inferential statistics.
C.The development and use of statistics.
D.How to use descriptive statistics.
37.Why does the author mention the “mother” and “father” in the first
paragraph?
A.To point out that parents can teach their children statistics.
B.To introduce inferential statistics.
C.To explain that there are different kinds of variables.
D.To present the background of statistics in a humorous and understandable way.
38.Which of the following is NOT given as an example of qualitative variable?
A.Gender. B.Height.
C.College major. D.Type of personality.
39.Which of the following statements about descriptive statistics is best
supported by the passage?
A.It simplifies unwieldy masses of data.
B.It leads to increased variability.
C.It solves all numerical problems.
D.It changes qualitative variables to quantitative variables.
40.According to the passage which is the purpose of examining a sample of
a population?
A.To compare different groups.
B.To predict characteristics of the entire population.
C.To consider all the quantitative variables.
D.To tabulate collections of data.

Part Ⅳ Short Answer Questions (15 minutes)
Directions:
In this part there is a short passage with five questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words (not exceeding 10 words).


Our world is filled with sounds we never hear. The human auditory(聽覺的) range is limited to begin with: if we could hear sounds lower than 20 vibrations per second, we would be driven mad by the rumblings and creakings of our muscles, intestines and heartbeats; every step we take would sound like an explosion. But even with our auditory range we select, focus, pay attention to a few sounds and blot out the rest. We are so assaulted(困擾) by sound that we continually “turn off”. But in the process we shut out the glorious symphony(交響樂) of sound in which the living world is bathed.
The soundtormented city dweller who habitually “turns off his audio” loses a dimension of social reality. Some people, for example, possess the ability to enter a crowded room and from the sounds encountered know immediately the mood, pace and direction of the group assembled. Everything becomes more real when heard as well as seen. It is, in fact, quite hard really to know a person by sight alone, without hearing his voice. And it is not just the sound of the voice that informs. Even the rhythm of footsteps reveals age and variations of mood—delight, depression, anger, joy.
Hearing can also soothe and comfort. The snapping of logs in the fireplace, the gossipy whisper of a broom, the inquisitive wheeze of a drawer opening—all are savored sounds that make us feel at home. In a wellloved home, every chair produced a different, recognizable creak, every window a different click, groan or squeak. The kitchen by itself is a source of many pleasing sounds. Every place, every event has a sound dimension.
The sense of hearing can perhaps be restored to modern man if he better understands its worth and how it works. Most people would be surprised to discover how far the sense can be pushed by cultivation. At a friend’s house recently, my wife opened her purse and some coins spilled out, one after another, onto the floor. “Three quarters, two dimes, a nickels and three pennies,” said our host as he came in from the next room. And as an after thought: “One of the quarters is silver.” He was right, down to the last penny.
“How did you do it?” we asked. “Try it yourself.” he said. We did, and with a little practice we found it easy.
Curiously, evidence indicates that people need sound. When we are lost in thought,
we involuntarily drum with our fingers or tap with a pencil—a reminder that we
are still surrounded by a world outside ourselves. Just cutting down reflected
sound can produce some odd results. The nearest thing on earth to the silence of
outer space, for example, is the “anechoic chamber” at the Bell Telephone Laboratories in Burray Hills, N.J., which is lined with material that absorbs 99.98% of all reflected sound. Men who have remained in the room for more than an hour report that they feel nervous and out of touch with reality.
Questions:
S1.According to Paragraph One. Why do we blot out the sounds we don’t want to hear?
_____________________
_____________________
S2.The writer believes that the rhythm of our footsteps changes as______________________________________.
S3.How many different kinds of sounds are mentioned in Paragraph 3?
________________________
________________________
S4.What’s the main idea of Paragraphs 4 and 5?
_________________________
__________________________
S5.The whole passage tells us that by ignoring most of the sound around u
s we miss much that could give us ______________________________.

speak”表明,Jeff很害羞,不愛說話,因此C為正確選項。
6.答案C。
【試題分析】 此題從B、C、D選項中推測對話可與record player或record有關(guān)。要注意對話中所發(fā)生的事情。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 amaze; get it to work
【詳細解答】 邊看選項邊聽磁帶,可首先斷定:對話能與record player有關(guān)。因此可排除A、B。根據(jù)“amaze”一詞,可排除D。因此C為正確答案。
7.答案A。
【試題分析】 此為時間辨析題。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 told
【詳細解答】 此題實際不難,不要主觀判斷以為聽到的時間肯定不會是答案。此題的問
題是:“When was Robert expected to arrive?”“be expected to do”表示“應(yīng)該做……”。根據(jù)所聽到的“I told him to arrive by 8:10.”可得出A為正確答案。
8.答案D。
【試題分析】 此題從選項中判斷,對話可能與restaurant和food有關(guān),但仍要注意選項D,它表明不去餐館。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 can’t eat; aches
【詳細解答】 從關(guān)鍵詞“can’t”可推測女士根本不想吃東西,更別提下館子了,因此只剩下D為正確答案了。
9.答案B。
【試題分析】 從選項可知對話與自然現(xiàn)象有關(guān),根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞便可推導出問題的答案。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 downpour
【詳細解答】 從downpour可直接推導出談話的內(nèi)容是B。
10.答案D。
【試題分析】 此題從選項中可推測問題可能是“what”之類的,因此要特別注意對話中
談及的活動之間的關(guān)系。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 not sure; relax
【詳細解答】 雖然聽到A、B兩項的內(nèi)容,但“not sure”否定了其可能性,而“relax”
則進一步肯定A、B不是要進行的活動。至于C更是不可能了。因為“so hot”說明天太熱,無人會去在陽光下運動的。因此D為正確選項。

【解題思路】 從試題11—13的選項中可得知文章與thunderstorm(雷雨)有關(guān),且11—12均與數(shù)字有關(guān),應(yīng)特別留意。
11.答案A。
【詳細解答】 A、B兩項均與聽到的內(nèi)容相符,但題目是問“How much energy can be re
leased by a single thunderstorm?”,因此A為正確答案。
12.答案B。
【詳細解答】 根據(jù)所聽到的數(shù)據(jù)只有“fifty thousand”便可排除其它選項直接選B。

13.答案C。
【詳細解答】 此題雖然內(nèi)容多,但幾乎能聽到和選項一樣的句子,因此并不難。當聽到
“conditions”時,便知道下面聽到的才是產(chǎn)生雷暴雨的條件,從而判定C為正確選項。

2
【解題思路】 從試題14—16的選項中,可預測短文內(nèi)容可能與醫(yī)生或醫(yī)院等有關(guān),選項
中出現(xiàn)的rescue, blood bank將有助于短文聽力理解。
14.答案D。
【試題分析】 此題需要經(jīng)過稍微的推理才能得出答案。
【詳細解答】 建立血庫的目的是為了“store the blood”,因為當時已有許多人因得不
到需要的血液而死亡,因而建立血庫的最終目的是為需要血液的人而儲備血液,因此D為正
確答案。
15.答案B。
【試題分析】 此題為邏輯推理題,從眾多因素中找出根本原因。
【詳細解答】 Dr.Drew在事故中受傷被送往最近的醫(yī)院,但被拒收,在送往第二家醫(yī)院途中因流血過多而死亡,借此可推知如果第一家醫(yī)院收下Dr.Drew,情況可能大為改觀,因此Dr.drew致死的原因是B。
16.答案A。
【試題分析】 此題要求在理解大意和關(guān)鍵詞的基礎(chǔ)上推理。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 Negro
【詳細解答】 此題可采用排除法,血庫在二戰(zhàn)中被建立,而非二戰(zhàn)后,因此B項不符合所聽到的內(nèi)容。Dr.Drew負責的是第一家血庫,而不是紅十字會,因此可排除C。在血庫被建立以后,起初并不接受黑人獻血,這樣D也可被除。而從聽到的“We don’t take in Negroes here.”和Dr.Drew被拒收的事實,可斷定Dr.Drew為黑人,即有色人種,A為正確答案。

17.答案B。
【試題分析】 此題考地點辨析。
【詳細解答】 短文第一句便點明地點是“southeast of England”,因此B為正確答案。

18.答案A。
【試題分析】 此題為時間辨析題。
【詳細解答】 四個時間,在短文中均被提到,但分別與不同的事情相聯(lián)系。A項是說Brighton到18世紀才開始受人歡迎。B項和C項之間的這段時間是Royal Pavilion重建時間。而D項所說的時間是喬治四世最后造訪Royal Pavilion的時間。此題所提的問題是“When did Brighton first become popular?”,很顯然A為正確答案。
19.答案C。
【詳細解答】 我們又聽到兩種風格的裝飾,一種是Chinese Style,另一種是Indian Style。 Royal Pavilion重建時,采用的是后者,因此C為正確答案。
20.答案C。
【試題分析】 此題為根據(jù)關(guān)鍵詞進行推理的題。
【關(guān)鍵詞語】 bought
【詳細解答】 既然Brighton當?shù)卣I下了Royal Pavilion,當然擁有其所有權(quán),因此C為正確選項。

25.答案B。
【試題分析】 此題為根據(jù)上下文推理題。
【詳細解答】 A.兩人都被她們的部落稱為“Beloved Woman”,而文中只有Nancy Ward有此稱號;B.兩人對她們部落在美國革命中作用影響很大,根據(jù)上下文我們可知B正確,而C和D文中都沒有提到,所以C和D均不正確。

前用了定冠詞,相應(yīng)的female前也要用定冠詞。the female指的是一個群體,謂語動詞應(yīng)用“are”而不是“is”,因此C為正確選項。
62.答案C。
【參考譯文】 很難說她對這一消息的反應(yīng)是怎樣的。
【試題分析】 此題主要考搭配,題干中介詞“to”為關(guān)鍵詞。
【詳細解答】 reaction反應(yīng),常與介詞“to”連用,表示“對……的反應(yīng)”,如:What’s his reaction to this proposal?他對這一提議做何反應(yīng)?A.impression印象,一般用于“make an impression on sb.給某人留下印象”結(jié)構(gòu)中;B.comment評述,與介詞on連用:comment on this book書評;D.opinion看法,觀點,多與介詞of連用。
63.答案B。
【參考譯文】 在1920年以前美國婦女都沒有選舉權(quán)。
【試題分析】 此題為近義詞辨析題。
【詳細解答】 deny否定;deny sb. sth.拒絕給某人某物:Some parents never deny their children anything.一些父母孩子要什么就給什么從不拒絕。A.ignore忽視,不理睬
:ignore the customer’s complaints不理睬顧客的申訴;C.reject拒絕:reject our suggestion拒絕了我們的建議;D.refuse拒絕:refuse to sign the contract拒簽合同。A、C、D均不能接復合賓語。此題只能選B。
64.答案A。
【參考譯文】 沒有人能完全不顧社會慣例而為所欲為。
【試題分析】 此題為詞組辨析題,根據(jù)句意來判斷。
【詳細解答】 at will任意,隨心所欲。B.at random隨便地,偶然地:I just picked up a book at random to kill my time.我只是隨便拿了本書以消磨時間。C.on purpose故意
地:He did it on purpose.他故意這么做。D.on easy沒有這樣的詞組。
65.答案D。
【參考譯文】 雖然科學不斷進步,老齡所帶來的不適毫無疑問會一直伴隨著我們。
【試題分析】 此題為語法題,考學生對表示轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系的介詞的掌握。
【詳細解答】 從題意中,我們可以得出“advances of science”和“the discomforts
of old age”是一種轉(zhuǎn)折關(guān)系,故可以排除A、B兩項。A.as for關(guān)于,至于。B.except除……以外。而C選項形式不正確,應(yīng)該為in spite of才行。D.despite=in spite of盡管。
66.答案B。
【參考譯文】 他在詩中把自己的小女兒比喻成一朵花。
【試題分析】 此題為搭配辨析題。
【詳細解答】 此題“compare”為關(guān)鍵詞,常用于“compare A to B(把A比喻成B)”結(jié)構(gòu)中,或“compare A with B(比較A和B)”結(jié)構(gòu)中,故B為正確選項。
67.答案C。
【參考譯文】 由于這場暴風雨航班被取消了,我們決定坐火車。
【試題分析】 此題為語法題,考獨立主格的構(gòu)成。
【詳細解答】 此處獨立主格用作原因狀語。因為flights是cancel的邏輯賓語,又置于cancel之前,因此cancel應(yīng)用被動形式,而且航班的取消應(yīng)發(fā)生在我們決定坐火車之前,所以用完成時態(tài)。因此C為正確選項。

68.答案A。
【參考譯文】 母親希望兒子不要輕率行事。
【試題分析】 此題為詞組辨析題,實質(zhì)考搭配。
【詳細解答】 首先可排除B、C兩項,因為avoid為及物動詞,常用于avoid (doing) sth.
結(jié)構(gòu)中。ask也為及物動詞,沒有ask from這樣的詞組。D.protect雖然能與from搭配使用,但一般用于protect…from結(jié)構(gòu)中,表示“保衛(wèi)……,使不受……傷害”。A.keep from阻止;抑制:keep from talking like that不要那樣講話。
69.答案B。
【參考譯文】 這個故事不是真的,是虛構(gòu)的。
【試題分析】 此題為形近詞辨析題。
【詳細解答】 imaginary想象力的,虛構(gòu)的:imaginary enemy假想的敵人。A.imaginative想象力豐富力的:imaginative writer想象力豐富的作家。C.imaginable可想象的:unimaginable difficulty無法想象的困難。
70.答案A。
【參考譯文】 在如此炎熱的天氣,他在樹蔭下睡覺。
【試題分析】 此題為近義詞辨析題。
【詳細解答】 shade“蔭,陰涼處”,正符合題意。如:Store the food in the shade.
在食物放在陰涼處。B.shelter躲避,躲避風雨的地方或東西,與句意中“hot weather”不相關(guān)。如:We took shelter from the rain in a cave. 我們在山洞里躲雨。C.shadow
陰影,暗處,指陽光照不到的地方,或光線照射所形成的陰影。在樹下乘涼,并不是指在樹
影下乘涼,故A比C合適。D.shield盾牌,庇護物。

Part Ⅳ
短文大意
本文講述的是聲音對人的作用。由于世界充滿各種聲音,我們經(jīng)常只是有選擇性地聆聽。
然而聲音卻是現(xiàn)實世界的一個表面,它還能使人感到安慰和舒適。而聽覺是可以提高的,并
且有事實表明人需要聲音。

S1.【參考答案】Because there’re numerous sounds around us.
【解題技巧】利用原文中的提示,用自己的話重組答案。
【詳細解答】 此題在第一段中能找到答案。即“We are so assaulted by sound that we
continually turn off.”。但回答應(yīng)具體化,不能照般原話。根據(jù)第一段的內(nèi)容可知“
Our world is filled with sounds.”,因此可把“assaulted by sound”更換成“numerous sounds around us”就更直接,更具體。
S2.【參考答案】our mood changes。
 【解題技巧】利用原文現(xiàn)有詞重組答案。
【詳細解答】 從第二段最后一句可知腳步的節(jié)奏能揭示一個人的年紀和情緒的變化。
可見腳步節(jié)奏會隨著我們心情的變化而變化。解答時借用“mood”這一關(guān)鍵詞。由于as后
要接從句,“mood”后的謂語就可用我們熟悉的“change”,而無須用vary, 以避免照搬原
話之嫌。
S3.【參考答案】six
【詳細解答】 在第三段中提及各種聲音,要仔細數(shù)清楚,不能遺漏。這六種聲音分別是
:logs, brooms, drawer, chair, window, kitchen所發(fā)出的聲音。
S4.【參考答案】Practice helps improve our sense of hearing.
 【解題技巧】 概括段落大意時,盡可能利用原文中現(xiàn)有的詞。
【詳細解答】 第四段的第一句說明聽覺是可以提高的。下文
接著說可以通過培養(yǎng)來提高
聽覺。在后面的例子中,作者證實了這一點。因此這兩段的主要意思是可以通過訓練,提高聽覺。在這兩段中分別出現(xiàn)了“the sense of hearing”,“restored”,“cultivation”,“practice”,可以利用這些詞來組織答案。
S5.【參考答案】pleasure and information.
【詳細解答】 此題找不到現(xiàn)存的答案,需要進行總結(jié),從第一段最后一句可知如果我們
對周圍的聲音充耳不聞,我們便無法享受聲音所帶來的種種樂趣。從第二段可知聲音是社會現(xiàn)實的一個層面,能揭示人的心情等,且倒數(shù)第二句:“…voice that informs”說明聲音能提供信息。從第三段的第一句可知聲音還能給人安慰、是令人愉快的。最后一段則說明沒了聲音,人們會感到緊張,與現(xiàn)實隔絕?偠灾,聲音能提供快樂信息和安慰,安慰可并入愉悅之內(nèi),因為令人高興當然會令人感到安慰。因此推導出答案為Pleasure and information,如果加上comfort也可以。

Part Ⅴ

寫作指導
這是一篇議論文,要求照提綱要求來展開論述。內(nèi)容涉及到閱讀的兩種途徑,一種是選擇
性閱讀,另一種是博覽群書,要求學生分別闡述存在兩種不同讀書態(tài)度的原因 ,也即兩種
途徑各自的優(yōu)勢或不足之處,并在此基礎(chǔ)上,闡明自己的觀點。
在范文中,先借讀書有益引入話題,指出存在兩種不同的態(tài)度。第二段先介紹支持第一種
態(tài)度人的觀點,通過“for one thing”和“for another”把兩點原因緊密聯(lián)系起來。第三
段再介紹第二種讀書途徑的必要性和長處。最后以“In my opinion”引出作者自己的看法
。此時作者采取折衷態(tài)度,強調(diào)要博覽選擇后的好書,使自己立于不敗之地。
Sample Writing
Reading Selectively or Extensively?
Now, it is generally accepted that reading is very important. But when it comes to how to read, there has sprung up a heated discussion as to whether we should read selectively or extensively.
Those who are in favor of the idea of reading selectively believe that it is not how much one reads but what he reads that really counts. For one thing, living
in an age when much time has to be taken by work and other activities, people are unable to find enough time to read extensively even if they intend to. For an
other, some books are harmful and therefore the choice of books can never be overlooked.
However, those who insist on reading extensively argue that it is through reading extensively that we obtain most of our knowledge. Now branches of knowledge
diverge into each other rather than isolated from each other. Only when one goes
beyond his own field and read widely can he really make remarkable achievements
in his study. In addition, the most valuable gifts bestowed by reading extensively are experience, broad view and wisdom.
In my opinion, we should read both selectively and extensively. That is to say
, upon reading, we have to first distinguish good books from indecent ones. But
to the former, there is no such things as too many in reading.
