Ⅱ. Reading Comprehension (共40分)
(60 minutes)

Section A: Multiple
Choice （每小题1分，共20分）

Directions: Read the following 4 passages and
complete the statements after them by choosing the best from the four
alternatives. Write your answer on the Answer Sheet.

Passage 1

The concept of
norms is important in two respects in linguistic approaches to translation. On
the one hand, they are concerned with the linguistic norms of the two
languages, i.e. how to produce utterances and texts that are correct according
to the respective rules and norms. On the other hand, the relations and
regularities between the two linguistic systems that were discovered on the
basis of contrastive analyses were “translated” into guidelines or rules for
the translator, mostly with prescriptive intent (cf. frequently encountered
formulations such as “translators must not…,
should …” etc.). Translation procedures and similar guidelines, however, were
formulated in a rather general way and gave the impression that they are
applicable throughout. A chosen target language form may well be correct
according to the rules of the language system, but this does not necessarily
mean that the text as a whole appropriately fulfils its communicative function
in the target language situation and culture. Since we do not translate words
or grammatical forms, but texts with a specific communicative function, the
limitations of a narrow linguistic approach soon became obvious. Thus, a
logical development was that in the 1970s, the insights and approaches of
text-linguistics, a new (sub-) discipline of (applied) linguistics, were
adopted in translation studies. Thus, regularities of the text itself, of the
genre, and of the context were given more consideration.

61 The belief that to translate is to produce utterances and texts
that are correct according to the respective rules and norms implies that _____.

A. translation is only a matter of language transferring according
to the respective language norms

B. language is a norm-governed system

C. translation is possible with the guidelines of rules and norms

D. language rules and norms are completely equivalent in the two
languages

62 The author’s
attitude towards “prescriptive intent” (line 6) is _____.

A. approval

B. disapproval

C. satisfying

D. unpleasant

63 The choosing of a target language form
depends on _____.

A. whether it is correct in terms of the target language norms

B. whether it can make the translation sound coherent

C. whether it is equivalent to the source language form

D. whether it can meet the purpose of the source writer

64 “A narrow linguistic approach” refers
to _____.

A. the translation approach concerning only parts of language
aspects

B. the translation approach only concerning the language forms

C. the translation approaching theme in a narrow sense

D. a narrow sense of translation

65 The purpose of the passage is to show
_____.

A. translation is a language norm-governed process

B. communicative function should be the main concern in translating

C. the academic development of translation studies

D. other aspects except language norms such as genre and context are
also important

【答案与解析】

61 B  由文中的they are concerned with the linguistic norms of the two languages可知，语言是一个规范的系统，故应选B。

62 B  由文中的Translation procedures and similar guidelines, however, were
formulated in a rather general way and gave the impression that they are
applicable throughout可知，翻译步骤和类似的指导方针是用一种相当普遍的方式来制定的，人们认为它们在整个过程中都是适用的，故可知作者对prescriptive intent即指定性意图是持反对态度的。

63 D  由文中的but this does not necessarily mean that the text as a whole
appropriately fulfils its communicative function in the target language
situation and culture可知，目标语言形式的选择取决于它是否能满足源语言的语言形式，故可推断出D为正确答案。

64 B  A narrow linguistic approach之前讲的都是language forms，由此可推断出其指的是“仅仅只关注语言形式的翻译方法”，故应选B。

65 D  由文章最后一句可知，文本自身、体裁以及上下文的规律得到了更多的重视，故可推断出本篇文章的目的是想说明除语言规范之外的其他方面也很重要。

Passage 2

Philosophy, like
all other studies, aims primarily at knowledge. The knowledge it aims at is the
kind of knowledge which gives unity and system to the body of the sciences, and
the kind which results from a critical examination of the grounds of our convictions,
prejudices, and beliefs. But it cannot be maintained that philosophy has had
any very great measure of success in its attempts to provide definite answers
to its questions. If you ask a mathematician, a mineralogist, a historian, or
any other man of learning, what definite body of truths has been ascertained by
his science, his answer will last as long as you are willing to listen. But if
you put the same question to a philosopher, he will, if he is candid, have to
confess that his study has not achieved positive results such as have been
achieved by other sciences. It is true that this is partly accounted for by the
fact that, as soon as definite knowledge concerning any subject becomes
possible, this subject ceases to be called philosophy, and becomes a separate
science. The whole study of the heavens, which now belongs to astronomy, was
once included in philosophy; Newton’s great
work was called “the mathematical principles of natural philosophy”. Similarly,
the study of the human mind, which was a part of philosophy, has now been
separated from philosophy and has become the science of psychology. Thus, to a
great extent, the uncertainty of philosophy is more apparent than real: those
questions which are already capable of definite answers are placed in the
sciences, while those only to which, at present, no definite answer can be
given, remain to form the residue which is called philosophy.

This is,
however, only a part of the truth concerning the uncertainty of philosophy.
There are many questions—and among them those that are of the profoundest
interest to our spiritual life—which, so far as we can see, must remain
insoluble to the human intellect unless its powers become of quite a different
order for what they are now. Has the universe any unity of plan or purpose, or
is it a fortuitous concourse of atoms? Is consciousness a permanent part of the
universe, giving hope of indefinite growth in wisdom, or is it a transitory
accident on a small planet on which life must ultimately become impossible? Are
good and evil of importance to the universe or only to man? Such questions are
asked by philosophy, and variously answered by various philosophers. But it
would seem that, whether answers are otherwise discoverable or not, the answers
suggested by philosophy are none of them demonstrably true. Yet, however slight
may be the hope of discovering an answer, it is part of the business of
philosophy to continue the consideration of such questions, to make us aware of
their importance, to examine all the approaches to them, and to keep alive that
speculative interest in the universe which is apt to be killed by confining
ourselves to definitely ascertainable knowledge.

66 The writer intends to show _____.

A. the philosophy’s differences
from other sciences

B. the philosophy’s interest in the
nature of universe

C. the uncertain nature of philosophy

D. the functions of the uncertain philosophy

67 Which one of the following statements
is TRUE according to the author?

A. The distinction of philosophy and concrete sciences lies in the
uncertainty of philosophy.

B. Concrete sciences are superior to philosophy for they can give
definite answers to some questions.

C. Philosophy concerns more with the to-be-solved spiritual
questions.

D. Philosophy is the guide for concrete sciences, and therefore
successful in solving all kinds of problems.

68 When the author praises the function of philosophy as “keeping
alive that speculative interest in the universe which is apt to be killed by
confining ourselves to definitely ascertainable knowledge” (the last sentence),
he implies that _____.

A. concrete sciences stop us from understanding the universe

B. the universe is still beyond us

C. concrete sciences have found the nature of the universe

D. with philosophy, we have found out the nature of universe

69 The word “insoluble” (line 3 in the
last paragraph) means _____.

A. impossible

B. uncertain

C. confused

D. unsolvable

70 This passage is an excerpt from a long article. From the last
paragraph here, we can guess, the purpose of the whole article is to show
______.

A. the value of philosophy

B. the distinctions between philosophy and concrete sciences

C. the interests of philosophy

D. the nature of philosophy

【答案与解析】

66 D  由最后一段的Such questions are asked by philosophy, and variously answered by
various philosophers可知，这些问题是由哲学提出，并由其解决。最后一段列举了尚未解决的问题，有待哲学探索，即D选项的“作者是为了揭示哲学的作用”。

67 A  由第一段的the uncertainty of philosophy is more apparent than real…可知，哲学的不确定性不但是真实的，而且很明显。有确切答案的问题已归为科学，暂无确切答案的问题仍归为哲学，故应选A，即“哲学和具体科学的区别在于是否未知”。

68 B  这句话的意思是“如果我们局限于可明确肯定的知识范围内，探索的兴趣很容易被扼杀”，这句话暗示了我们还有很多未知的领域，故应选B。

69 D  由最后一段的第三行可知，有许多问题，特别是和我们的精神生活最密切相关的，是人类才智始终不能解决的，除非人类的才智变得与现在完全不同，此题为词义辨析题，故应选D，意为“不能解决的”。

70 A  本文通篇讲述了哲学的作用和价值，故应选A。

Passage 3

That our
students rarely get the chance to use their imagination was an open secret
among Chinese people. Now, a global survey has brought it to the notice of the
rest of the world.

The survey
covering 21 countries, conducted by International Educational Progress
Evaluation Organization, showed Chinese students excelled at math, beating
their peers from other countries. But when it came to using their imagination,
they were tied for the last place. And in creativity, they were fifth from the
bottom.

The survey
results are not shocking, given the way our children are taught in schools and
at home. But they are a stern reminder to our educators and parents to change
their ways.

Chinese students
rarely get the time or chance to use their imagination. Right from the day they
enter school they are pushed into a culture of exams and more exams. Teachers
and parents teach them the way that education is all about passing these exams
with flying colors. And to pass those exams, they are made to learn by rote
standard answers.

Teachers dare
not encourage students to think outside the box. Teachers don’t like students questioning them, stifling the
curiosity of the young minds. For children, there’s
hardly any room for bright ideas either in class or at home.

Israel shares
the value of education with China. But there is a world of difference between
the way Israeli parents treat their children and we do. Israeli parents do not
mollycoddle their children. Instead, they encourage them to learn how to live
by themselves. In contrast, Chinese parents go to extremes, pampering their
children one moment for doing what they think is good and punishing them
severely the next for committing a “mistake”.

The global study
should make us swing into action and help our students to throw open their
young minds to imagination and creativity. It is time for our education
officials and educators to ask themselves what they should do to let our
children’s imagination and creativity blossom.

Creativity stems
from imagination. To make students creative, educators should encourage them to
use their imagination to the full. It is important for students to give wings
to their imagination beyond school hours, too. And parents can contribute to
the creative development of their children by encouraging them to be more
inquisitive.

Only by being imaginative
can our students come up with creative solutions to problems and expand their
world.

71 The expression “flying colors” (in
paragraph 4) means _____.

A. the colors of paper make students happy

B. high marks

C. high spirit

D. imagination

72 Which statement about Israel’s education is NOT TRUE according to the author?

A. Israeli students rarely get the time or chance to use their
imagination.

B. Israeli teachers don’t like
students questioning them.

C. Israel values exam achievements.

D. Similar to Chinese parents, Israeli parents do not spoil
children.

73 To improve children’s creativity, parents should encourage children to
_____.

A. ask more questions

B. learn more things by heart

C. present more requirements

D. use imagination

74 The statement that “teachers dare not
encourage students to think outside the box” (paragraph 5) means _____.

A. teachers don’t encourage
students to step into the society

B. teachers don’t encourage
unconventionalized way of thinking

C. teachers ask students to recite the fixed answers

D. teachers ask students to stay in the box

75 The author wants to urge _____.

A. Chinese parents to be stricter to children

B. Chinese teachers to give up their traditional way of teaching

C. Chinese parents to learn from Israeli parents

D. Chinese parents and teachers to reflect our education

【答案与解析】

71 B  第四段讲的是中国孩子进入学校开始面临的就是考试，由Teachers and parents teach them the way that education is all about
passing these exams with flying colors不难推断出flying colors为高分，老师和家长教他们如何以高分通过考试。

72 D  由文中的In contrast, Chinese parents go to extremes, pampering their
children可知，中国家长有时候会溺爱他们的孩子，故D选项错误。

73 A  由倒数第二段的And parents can contribute to the creative development of their
children by encouraging them to be more inquisitive可知，家长通过鼓励孩子提问来促进他们创造力的发展，故应选A。

74 B  由第五段的Teachers don’t like students
questioning them, stifling the curiosity of the young minds可知，老师不喜欢学生向他们提问，抑制了学生的好奇心，故可知题中的这句话是指B选项的“教师不鼓励学生非传统思维方式的发展”。

75 D  从倒数第二段可知，作者呼吁教育家和家长鼓励学生充分发挥其想象力，促进创造力发展，故应选D。

Passage 4

Although
passionate love burns hot, it inevitably simmers down. The cooling of
passionate love over time and the growing importance of other factors, such as
shared values, can be seen in the feelings of those who enter arranged versus
love-based marriages in India. Usha Gupta asked 50 couples in Jaipur, India, to
complete a love scale. They found that those who married for love reported
diminishing feelings of love if they had been married more than five years. By
contrast, those in arranged marriages reported more love if they were not
newlyweds. Other studies provide a mixed picture of arranged marriages
confirming Gupta and Singh’s finding of
successful arranged marriages in India, but observing that Chinese and Japanese
women were happier if they chose their mates.

The cooling of
intense romantic love often triggers a period of disillusion, especially among
those who regard that romantic love as essential both for a marriage and for
its continuation. Jeffry Simpson suspect “the
sharp rise in the divorce rate in the past tow decades in linked, at least in
part, to the growing importance of intense positive emotional experiences (e.
g. romantic love) in people’s lives,
experiences that may be particularly difficult to sustain over time.”

The decline in
intense mutual fascination may be natural and adaptive for species survival.
The result of passionate love frequently is children, whose survival is aided
by the parents waning obsession with each other. Nevertheless, for those
married more than 20 years, some of the lost romantic feeling is often renewed
as the family nest empties and the parents are once again free to focus their
attention on each other. If the relationship has been intimate and mutually
rewarding, companionate love rooted in a rich history of share experiences deepens.

76 According to the author, the cooling of
passionate love ______.

A. is natural and unavoidable

B. is a symbol of the death of love

C. is disappointing

D. occurs less in China and Japan than in India

77 Which statement is TRUE concerning
marriage?

A. Arranged marriage brings much happiness than love-based marriage.

B. Most of Indian women’s marriage
is arranged by the family.

C. In maintaining a marriage, shared values are more important than
passionate romance.

D. In a marriage, aspects like shared values will matter more than
passionate romance.

78 What kind of person is more likely to
divorce?

A. Those who have children.

B. Those who have no children.

C. Those whose marriage is arranged.

D. Those who value romance more than other things.

79 After children grow up and leave home,
passionate love will be likely to _____.

A. come back

B. decrease

C. be rewarding

D. lose

80 The author’s
tone is _____.

A. criticizing

B. worrying

C. objective

D. subjective

【答案与解析】

76 A  由第一段的第一句可知，热恋的激情逐渐冷却是不可避免的，故应选A。

77 B  由第一段反复出现的arranged marriages可知，B为正确答案。

78 B  由最后一段的The result of passionate love frequently is children, whose survival
is aided by the parents waning obsession with each other可知，孩子往往是热恋的结果，逆向推理可知没有孩子的人更有可能离婚。

79 A  由最后一段的some of the lost romantic feeling is often renewed as the family
nest empties and the parents are once again free to focus their attention on
each other可知，A为正确答案。

80 C  由整篇文章来看，作者只是阐述事实，不带任何感情色彩，故应选C。

Section B:
Question-Answering（每小题10分，共20分）

Directions: Below are 2 questions concerning
the passages you have just read. Answer them on the Answer Sheet, each within
80 words.

81 (Refer to Passage 1) Give us an example to illustrate it is
cultural contexts rather than language norms that matter in translation.

82 (Refer to Passage 4) How do you think of the view that if
passionate romance goes away, there is no necessity for marriage?

【答案】

81 Take the idiom “cast pearls before
swine” as an example. When it is translated into Chinese, it means talking to
those who don’t understand you. If we
translate it into Chinese just according to its language norms, then the
meaning could be its literal meaning, namely “throwing pearls to pigs”. This
kind of translation will certainly confuse the Chinese readers. If the cultural
factors have been taken into consideration, then Chinese readers will
understand quickly.

82 I agree with the view. The cooling of intense romantic love
often triggers a period of disillusion, especially among those who regard that
romantic love as essential both for a marriage and for its continuation. If
passionate romance goes away, the essential prerequisite for marriage will be
gone at the same time. The ending won’t be
desirable. So there is no necessity for marriage.

Ⅲ. Writing (共30分)

On
Internet Mass Hunting

Internet mass
hunting has gained its popularity among Netizens in recent years. With Netizens
participating in search, Internet mass hunting becomes an efficient tool to
find desired information. In 2006, a Netizen uploaded a picture showing that a “beautiful”
woman was maltreating a delicate kitty. The maltreatment was so intolerable
that Netizens decided to find out the culprit. Six days later, an anonymous
Netizen submitted a post describing that the wanted woman lived in a town in a
northern province and other detailed information. This successful case is
followed by a series of Internet mass hunting and arouses an ongoing
controversy over its legality.

Personally, I am
of opinion that the new way of search is acceptable. Firstly, in retrospect,
nearly all the targets of Internet mass hunting are directed to those who
violated moral rules of our society, or are corrupted officials. Thanks to the
Internet mass hunting, those immoral people have been made public. Some did now
show due respect to our former leaders, some spread erotic video to make a
name, some outlet their personal resentment by making negative comments on
earthquake-stricken victims, some maltreat their step-children, to list a few
of those norm violators. Undoubtedly, once those culprits have been located by
combined efforts of Netizens, they would get at least moral punishments. In
this sense, Internet mass hunting proves to be an effective means to find out
norm violators and even criminals and give them a dose of their own medicine,
so that we can build a more harmonious society.

Secondly,
through the process of Internet mass hunting, participants get educated by
renouncing the immoralities and hence established norms get strengthened. In a
society where members lay their emphasis on how to make a fortune, how to gain
celebrity, and how to climb to a higher layer of power pyramid, traditional
virtues are deteriorating, which explains the frequency of those moral
violations in recent years. When participants succeeded in putting those moral
violators under public scrutiny, they will not only take pride in their success
to enforce moral rules, but also realize that they will get the same dose of
medicine if they make similar mistakes. Gradually, the severity of moral
punishments is likely to be conveyed to the whole society and therefore virtues
get consolidated.

As a coin has
two sides, Internet mass hunting is accused of intruding personal privacy and
other negative points. In some cities, authorities have tried to prohibit the
search. However, norm violators should not get away with punishment. I believe
that, with the gradual perfection of Internet mass hunting, it will enjoy wider
application.
