Section A

    标准化教育测试或心理测试现在广泛应用于协助选拔、分类、委派或提升学生、雇员和军事人员,这些测试一直是某些人近年来在图书、杂志、日报、甚至国会中抨击的目标。把这种标准化测试作为抨击的目标是不对的,因为,在抨击这类测试时,批评者没有考虑其弊病来自人们对测试不甚了解或使用不当。这些测试本身只是一种工具,其各种特性是可以在规定的条件下用相当的精度来测定的。测试的结果是有价值的,还是无意义的,甚至是误导的,部分取决于这种工具本身,但主要取决于测试的使用者

Section B

    A survey made recently indicates that most of buildings in China, no matter for office or residential purpose, all consume more electricity and water resources compared to that of foreign countries. For instance, energy consumption for Beijing residents is three times as much as that of the families in north German under the similar whether conditions. As China is an energy shortage country, therefore we Chinese should save (economize) resources so as to ensure the sustainable development for Chinese economy.

Who and How to Care of seniors?

 

Since China adopted one-child policytogether with improvement made in the social undertakings such as welfare and health carethere has emerged a problem of how to support seniors in recent years

As every coins has two sidesthe side effect of one-child policy is appearedfor examplethe child regarded by other family members as the little prince or princessalways has his wishes satisfied without difficultyGrowing up is this familyno wonder they lack in sense of caring for others and learning to be independent of parentsCan they support their aging parents whose life expectancy has been prolonged?

To effectively cope with this social problem of taking care of seniors todayI may put forward several suggestions as followsFirstyoung adults in a family should spend more time with their elder membersgiving financial helpchatting over favorite topicsdoing family workSecondlythe governments at all levels should finance the construction of more seniors care centers for aged people who wish to lessen the burden of their childrenLast but not the leastthe sense of responsibility for caring the seniors should be planted to the heart of everyone

To sum upI firmly hold that taking care of the seniors is one of the traditional virtue in China and it involves the effort of young adults together with love from every corner of the societyparticular social institutionsOnly by doing so can we build a harmonious society

Some Reflection on the Snow Crisis

It is universally acknowledged that last winter brought unprecedented cold weather to south China; sustained sub-zero temperatures, freezing rain and snow left citizens struggling to keep warm. The extreme weather resulted in power cuts and paralyzed road and rail links across the country, stranding millions at bus and rail stations and on ice-covered roads and many house collapsed.

There is no doubt that regarding the snow disaster, it is the consequence of abnormal climate change. What has always struck me about extreme weather conditions is that, although these disasters are often devastating, in some ways, it is this devastation that could play a vital part in increasing awareness and promoting change. Each time when crisis occurred, it was the poor people, such as immigrant workers, who suffered the most.

This snow crisis in southern China has drawn our attention to the social venerable group of immigrant workers, especially in the time of crisis. Moreover, social charity has been fully motivated to relieve the serious consequence of this crisis.

It is high time that proper measures were taken by government and individuals to prevent this kind of crisis. Only in this way can we enjoy a more harmonious society.

Section A 参考译文:    
艺术品的另外一个显著特征是它是用来观赏的还是被使用的物品。精美的艺术品,如绘画和雕塑,都包含了看得见的作品的制作和抽象的体验。一件件精美的艺术品可以唤起我们情感和精神上的响应。热爱艺术品的人会觉得这些响应是非常有价值的,因为它们扩大了我们对生活本身丰富内涵的了解。
Section B 参考译文:
     During the 17th and 18th centuries, Chinese art, architecture and philosophy had been quite appreciated in the west. In addition, Chinese silk, tea and porcelain had been warmly welcomed, and had altered, to some extent, the lifestyle of many westerners. In the last part of the 20th century, the westerners focused their attention on Chinese culture again. Besides enjoying Chinese food, they learned Chinese, tried out Chinese medicine and herbs, watched gongfu films.

After reading this instructive story we can learn that there is no goal, there is no life, and we should set new goals for life in different periods of life. Otherwise sad story such as the disabled man mentioned in the story would happen. Only with the renewed goals, we can improve ourselves step by step, and make our life more colorful and meaningful.
Certainly, everyone has his own goal of life. I have mine too. My goal is to become a famous surgeon. I’ll work hard to achieve this goal by learning and practicing more, so that I can make myself more knowledgeable and skillful, and use them to benefit my patients. If I have achieved this goal, I would set up a new one. Then, I’ll do my best to achieve it.
Therefore, everyone should set different goals in different periods of life, and try his best to achieve it. In this way, we will live happily.

In order to hold the 2008 Olympic Games successfully, Beijing plans to invest 23 billion US dollars in the construction of basic facilities. It is reported that some foreign companies have noticed these business opportunities. Some American companies plan to provide products and service in the areas of telecommunication and information technology. Some British companies are also seeking business opportunities from Beijing Olympic Games. They are trying to find the areas where U.K has advantages, such as the architectural technology which will not pollute the environment.

参考范文:
As the story tells us, we have to think which we are to consider as more important, life or money. The father in the story is the victim of his savings, because he loses his life when trying to get his money out of the house regardless of the risk. The story is intended to tell us that money sometimes brings misfortune if one has become a slave of money. My argument is listed as follows:
On one hand, to be the master of money can make life more meaningful and bring fortune. It is known to all that there are many other things that are more important than money, such as knowledge, health and friendship. Overestimate of the importance and value of money is likely to confine one’s activity and thinking to money. As a result, everything else is overlooked and happiness will not come easily.
On the other hand, to be a slave of money can make a person end up with disaster, just as the father in the story. Many crimes are related to money, including robbery, bribery and stealing. This follows that were we have to take a positive attitude towards money.
In conclusion, I’ll never do such a silly thing as the father has done. Money does mean a lot, but it does not mean everything. I’ll learn a lesson from the story and try to devote myself to more important tasks rather than become a slave of money.

Part II Translation参考译文:
Over the last two decades, no country in the world has expanded its foreign trade as fast as China. Japan took more than 20 years to double its foreign trade, but China has increased its foreign trade by three times for the same length of time. Already the world’s third largest producer of electric appliances, China is now playing a major role in the global market of the electric wares. China has also become a major producer of labor-intensive manufactured goods in the world.
Part III Writing参考范文:
AS can be clearly observed from the chart above, the trend of Chinese traveling abroad is mounting these years. In the past three years, the number of Chinese traveling abroad has been on a steady rise. According to the chart, the number increased from 7.5 million in 1999 to 10 million in 2000 and to 12.1 million in 2001.
I think there are at least three reasons for the above-mentioned changes. First and foremost, the changes are primarily due to the better income of the Chinese. They are better off and can afford a trip abroad. What’s more, they have a lot to do with the development of the travel industry in China. More and more travel agencies are attracting more people to join in their tours abroad. Finally, the changes are closely related to our policy of opening up to the outside world.
From what has been discussed, it is obvious that the increase in the number of Chinese traveling abroad is of great concern of our life. It reflects the improvement of our living standards and development of our economy.

    Actually the last fifty years was not the golden age of invention and innovation. From 1900 to 1950, human life was transformed by such inventions as cars, aeroplanes, telephones, radios and television sets, not to mention nuclear weapons and the computer of course. In the recent 50 years since only a few inventions have been made, was the wellspring of invention drying up? Not likely. Indeed, a new age of invention is just beginning.

The Greatest Invention in the Past Century
Of all the inventions and discoveries in the century, nothing can be more influencing than the invention of Internet. People who emphasize either the advantages or disadvantages have to acknowledge that Internet has become the essential part of our daily work and lives.
Internet is the best information center. It is widely agreed that by using Internet, we can get access to information more easily and quickly. For example, we can read the latest news on Internet instead of buying a large piece of newspaper; we can also deal with our stock shares on the Internet sitting at home. In short, the convenience provided by the Internet helps us all.
Internet also serves as a new way of communication. It is much cheaper than a telephone call, especially a long distance call; it is much quicker than a letter.
Of course, it also has some detrimental influence. For instance, some unhealthy information is spreading and is sent to especially the teenagers. However, nothing could be perfect. It is widely believed than internet will do us more good than harm to us as long as we use it carefully and properly.

Different people have different viewpoints about this subject. Some say that wealth is more important, for keeping fit needs money. Others say health is more important, for you can do nothing without a good health. This question is still under discussion.
In my opinion, health is more important than wealth. The following points can wee support my statement. First, a good health will enable you to enjoy your life. With a good health, you will be happy with yourself and your family as well. Second, a good health will enable you to work effectively. In this way, you may do more contributions to our society. Third, a good health is also the best way of money saving. With a good health, you will reduce the economic burden for yourself, your family and the society as well. I can’t imagine what will happen to a society whose citizens have a poor health. Therefore, health is more important than health.

As the world economy becomes more and more globalized, we need to contact with different people in different parts of the world. A good command of foreign language and an understanding of cultural difference become increasingly important. As good command of foreign language and an understanding of cultural difference become increasingly important. As the world becomes “smaller”, we need to be more open-minded to new ideas.

Why We Work
When we live in the world, we all work for some reason or other. Different people have different attitudes towards work. Some people live to work. They devote themselves to their work. The aim for which they work is to realize the value of life, to promote the development of society and to make more people live happy life. They make great contributions to society and at the same time they also find pleasure from their work.
On the contrary, other people work to live. They regard work as a way of making a living. The purpose for which they work is to kill time or to make enough money to support themselves and their families. They often regard work as what they have to do. So they can’t pick up pleasure and enjoyment from their work. Such people, once they can afford to support themselves and their families, perhaps quit their work.
In my opinion, we shouldn’t go to the extremes. Since we are members of society, we should do what we can to better it so that we can live in more comfortable and more convenient surrounding. Good life is an assurance of smooth work. Only when we realize this can we live happily and work well.

The Problem I Have in my English Study
I have many difficulties in my English study. First, my vocabulary is limited. Second, I dare not speak English in the open. Third, I’m poor in writing.
My first difficulty is that my vocabulary is not large. As I am approaching middle age, it is not so easy to keep many new words in mind quickly. The second difficulty maybe results from my shyness. The third difficulty is that I cannot write well. This is because that I have been very busy with my work which really doesn’t need any foreign language, I seldom have a chance to write something in English.
To overcome these difficulties, I have worked out a plan. First, I plan to read one or two pages of English in order to memorize the new words. Second, I will go to “English Corner” and practice spoken English at least once a week. And I will also try to e-mail my friend in English. I believe that “Practice makes perfect”, and that I can learn English well in a shorter future.

参考译文:
    Over the past few decades, perhaps no other topics have received more attention from (have been more concerned by ) management researchers than the subject of art of leadership. The training and developing of management personnel is also one of the hottest topics in discussion. This indicates that professional management are interested in finding out the mysterious of effective leadership.

The Role of Migrant Workers
I do agree with the statement that migrant workers have made a great contribution to the prosperity of cities. In Beijing, for example, many migrant workers are working on the construction sites. These people are really hard working. Without these people the cities could not develop so quickly. In addition to the construction work they take, they also help to improve the community services, such as cleaning, repairing work and household work. They help make the city clean and nice, and they also help many families with tedious work.
Certainly, migrant workers have also brought some problems to the cities. For example, the public transport becomes a little crowded, and from time to time, we heard that some dishonest migrants stole things.
I believe that if migrant workers are given certain kind of education, they can improve themselves and will be an important treasure to the cities.

参考译文:
    The most important task today is to develop the national economy and improve the people’s living standard. In order to realize the goal, we must reform the old economic system so that we can further liberate the productive force. We should open our door to the world so that we can learn advanced science and technology from other countries. As long as we adhere to the reform and open policy, we can certainly build our motherland into a powerful socialist country.

 47. The 'true enemies of science, argues Paul Ehrllch of Stanford University, a pioneer of environmental studies, are those who question the evidence supporting global warming, the depletion of the ozone layer and other consequences of industrial growth.

 48. This development--and its strong implication for US politics and economy in years ahead--has enthroned the South as America's most densely populated region for the first time in the history of the nation's head counting.

 51. Unlike most of the world's volcanoes, they are not always found at the boundaries of the great drifting plates that make up the earth's surface; on the contrary, many of them lie deep in the interior of a plate.

[参考译文] 暂缺
 54. While warnings are often appropriate and necessary--the dangers of drug interactions, for example--and many are required by state or federal regulations, it isn't clear that they actually protect the manufacturers and sellers from liability if a customer is injured.
[参考译文] 尽管警告常常是适当而且必须的--比如对于药物相互作用的危险提出 警告--许多警告还是按州或联邦政府规定要求给出的,然而(我们) 并不清楚,如果顾客受到伤害时,这些警告是不是确实可以使得生产者 和销售者豁免责任。
 55. At the same time, the American Law Institute--a group of judges, lawyers, and academics whose recommendations carry substantial weight--issued new guidelines for tort law stating that companies need not warn customers of obvious dangers or bombard them with a lengthy list of possible ones.

 60. Besides, this is unlikely to produce the needed number of every kind of professional in a country as large as ours and where the economy is spread over so many states and involves so many international corporations.
[参考译文] 另外,在我们这么一个大国里,经济延展到这么多的州、涉及到这么多 的国际公司,因而要按照数量培养出所需的各类专业人员是不大可能的

 71. But it is a little upsetting to read in the explanatory notes that a certain line describes a fight between a Turkish and a Bulgarian officer on a bridge off which they both fall into the river--and then to find that the line consists of the noise of their falling and the weights of the officers, "Pluff! Pluff!" A hundred and eighty-five kilograms."

Instead, we are treated to fine hypocritical spectacles, which now more than ever seem in ample supply: the critic of American materialism with a Southampton summer home; the publisher of radical books who takes his meals in three-star restaurants; the journalist advocating participatory democracy in all phases of life, whose own children are enrolled in private schools.

The overall result has been to make entrance to professional geological journals harder for a mateurs, a result that has been reinforced by the widespread introduction of refereeing, first by national journals in the 19th century and then by several local geological journals in the 20th century.
[参考译文] 这样一来总的结果便是业余爱好者想在专业地质学期刊…卜发表文章就更难了,而被广泛使用的论文评审推荐制度又进一步强化了这一结果,该种制度先是出现在19世纪的国家级刊物上,后又在20世纪被几家地方级地质学刊物所使用。
 82. A rather similar process of differentiation has led to professional geologists coming together nationally within one or two specific societies, whereas the amateurs have tended either to remain in local societies or to come together nationally in a different way.

[参考译文] 遗憾地讲,这次新闻机构可信度调查计划结果只获得了一些十分低层次的发现,比如新闻报道中的事实错误,拼写或语法错误(和这些低层次发现)交织在一起的还有许多令人挠头的困惑,譬如读者到底想读些什么。
84. I believe that the most important forces behind the massive M&M wave are the same that underlie the globalization process: falling transportation and communication costs, lower trade and investment barriers and enlarged markets that require enlarged operations capable of meeting customers' demands.

 86. I have discovered, as perhaps Kelsey will after her much-publicized resignation from the editorship of She after a build-up of stress, that abandoning the doctrine of "juggling your life", and making the alternative move into "downshifting brings with it far greater rewards than financial success and social status.
[参考译文] 或许正像凯尔西在不堪积劳重负而公开地辞去她在《》杂志社的编辑 一职之后一样,我已经发现,放弃那种"为生活忙碌"的人生信条并转 而追求比较悠闲的生活带给你的回报远远大于经济成功和社会地位。
 87. While in America the trend started as a reaction to the economic decline-after the mass redundancies caused by downsizing in the late ' 80s-and is still linked to the politics of thrift, in Britain, at least among the middle-class down shifters of my acquaintance, we have different reasons for seeking to simplify our lives.
[参考译文] 在美国,这一返朴趋势是以经济衰落的反应为开始的--那是在80年 代末期裁员而引起大量的失业之后一一现在依然与提倡节俭的政纲相: 关;而在英国,最起码在我所熟识的中产阶级返朴归隐者中,追求简约; 生活的原因就多种多样了。
 88. For the women of my generation who were urged to keep juggling through the' 80s, down-shifting in the mid' 90s is not so much a search for the mythical good lift-growing your own organic vegetables, and risking turning into one-as a personal recognition of your limitations.
[参考译文] 对于我这一代曾在整个80年代为生活奔波的女人来说,90年代中期出 现的归隐恬退与其说是我们寻求一种神话般的美好生活--用有机肥种植蔬菜,并且自己放弃一切的风险--不如说是我们清醒地认识到自身;能力是有限的这一事实。
 89. If you are part of the group which you are addressing, you will be in a position to know the experiences and problems which are common to all of you and it' 11 be appropriate for you to make a passing remark about the inedible canteen food or the chairman' s notorious bad taste in ties.
[参考译文] 如果你是你讲话对象中的一员,那么你就身处一种(有利)位置宋了解对你们来说都很普遍的经历和问题,而且你对餐厅中难以下咽的食物或老总臭名昭彰的领带品位进行随意评判也是合适的。
 90. There are already robot systems that can perform some kinds of brain and bone surgery with submillimeter accuracy--far greater precision than highly skilled physicians can achieve with their handsaone
[参考译文] 现在已有一些机器人系统能够进行精确到毫米以下的脑部和骨骼手术——这要比极具技巧的医生单单用手精确得多。
 91. But if robots are to reach the next stage of laborsaving utility, they will have to operate with less human supervision and be able to make at least' a few decisions for them- selves-goals that pose a real challenge.
[参考译文] 但是如果机器人要达到节省人工的下一个阶段,它们将必须在更少的人力监督之下工作,而且还要能够自己作出至少几个决定--这些目标才会引发真正的挑战。
 92. But the human mind can glimpse a rapidly changing scene and immediately disregard the 98 percent that is irrelevant, instantaneously focusing on the monkey at the side of a winding forest road or the single suspicious face in a big crowd.
[参考译文] 但是人类的头脑可以只迅速地瞟一眼一个快速改变的场面,然后立刻放弃98%的不相关部分,而马上聚焦于一条崎岖森林道路边的一只猴子,或者在茫茫人海中的一张可疑的脸。
 93. The OECD estimates in its latest Economic Outlook that, if oil prices averaged a barrel for a full year, compared with in 1998, this would increase the oil import bill in rich economies by only 0.25---0.5% of GDP.
[参考译文] OECD在其最近的《经济瞭望》中估计,如果石油价格与1998年的每 桶13美元相比在一年中平均为每22美元,这也只会给富裕的经济体的 石油进口账单上增加GDP的0.25%到0.5%。
 94. One more reason not to lose sleep over the rise in oil prices is that, unlike the rises in the 1970s, it has not occurred against the background of general commodity-price inflation and global excess demand.
[参考译文] 另外一个不应因油价上涨而失眠的原因是,这次不像70年代的那些次上涨,它并不是在普遍的商品价格暴涨和全球需求过旺的背景之下发生的。
 95. Although it ruled that there is no constitutional right to physician-assisted suicide, the Court in effect supported the medical principle of "double effect", a centuries-old moral principle holding that an action having two effects--a good one that is intended and a harmful one that is foreseen--is permissible if the actor intends only the good effect.
[参考译文] 尽管它裁决并没有宪法权利来支持医生帮助下的自杀行为,最高法院实际上支持了被称为"双重效果"的医疗原则;这个已有几个世纪历史的道德原则认为一个可能有两个效果的行为--一个想要达到的好的效果和一个已经预见到的有害的效果是被允许的,如果行为的实施者想要的 只是好的效果的话。
 96. Nancy Dubler, director of Montefiore Medical Center, contends that the principle will shield doctors who "until now have very, very strongly insisted that they could not give patients sufficient mediation to control their pain if that might hasten death."
[参考译文] Nancy Dubler,Montehore医疗中心的主任,认为这一原则将会保护这样一些医生,他们到目前为止还强烈坚持他们不能够给病人足量的镇痛剂来控制他们的疼痛,如果这么做会加速他们的死亡的话。
 97. On another level, many in the medical community acknowledge that the assisted--suicide debate has been fueled in part by the despair of patients for whom modern medicine has prolonged the physical agony of dying.
[参考译文] 在另一个层面上,很多医疗界的人承认,关于医生帮助下的自杀的讨论部分是因为病人的绝望情绪,对他们来说,现代医学已经延长了死亡的身体痛苦。
 98. It identifies the undertreatment of pain and the aggressive use of "ineffectual and forced medical procedures that may prolong and even dishonor the period of dying" as the twin problems of end--of--life care.
[参考译文] 它把对疼痛的治疗不足和盲目积极使用"有可能延长死亡时间甚至让死亡过程蒙羞的无效并且强迫性的医疗手段"视为生命临终医护的两个问题。
 99. In other words, there is a conventional story line in the newsroom culture that provides a backbone and a ready-made narrative structure for otherwise confusing new.
[参考译文] 换句话说,在媒介机构的新闻采编室文化中存在着--套约定俗成的写作模式,为新闻报道提供了主干框架以及可直接套用的叙述结构。若没有这些,新闻内容就会一团混乱,让人摸不着头脑。
 100. If it did, it would open up its diversity program, now focused narrowly on race and gender, and look for reporters who differ broadly by outlook, values, education, and class.
[参考译文] 如果新闻界真的注意到了问题的关键,它就应该进一步开放其多样化项目,这个项目现在还只单纯考虑招收不同种族和性别的员工,而进一步寻找那些世界观、价值观、教育水平和社会阶层大相径庭的各种记者。
