Translate the following paragraph into Chinese.In the modern era, there will be much to celebrate because our civilization has achieved breath-taking advances in virtually every field of human endeavour. And yet, these quantum leaps in human progress coexist with a darker side to our civilization such as armed conflict, which might destroy entire communities in the quest for ethnicity, religion or race. In the context of armed conflict, children are the real victims. Many were killed, permanently disabled, displaced or orphaned. Worse than that, some of them are currently under arms as killing machines. Hence, the Security Council should set out its goal: advocating for children who are victimized or made especially vulnerable, as well as mobilizing for concrete action to ensure their rights, protection and welfare.B. Translate the following paragraph into English.贸易增长在很大程度上取决于能源的供应。中东可以开采的原油还有一万亿桶。但是 1974年的石油危机使人们对煤再度产生了兴趣并且去寻找可供选择的其它能源。在今后的年代里，太阳能、风能和核能将起到重大的作用。【答案】A英译中【参考译文】在如今这个时代，会有许多事情值得庆祝，因为几乎在人类努力的每一个领域我们的文明都取得了惊人的进展。然而，人类进步的这些巨大飞跃与我们文明的黑暗面并存，比如武装冲突，它可能会在寻求种族、宗教或种族的过程中摧毁整个社区。在（发生）武装冲突的情况下，孩子们是真正的受害者。许多人被杀害、永久致残、流离失所或者成为孤儿。比这更糟糕的是，现在这些孩子中的一些人被当作杀人机器武装了起来。因此，安全理事会应确定自己的目标：提倡保护受害或者特别容易受害的儿童，并动员采取具体行动，确保孩子们的权利、保护他们并且提供福利。B中译英【参考译文】The growth of trade depends on energy supplies to a great extent. There is still a trillion barrels of recoverable oil in the Middle East. But the 1974 oil crisis made people revive interest in coal and search for alternative sources of energy. In the years to come, solar, wind and nuclear power will play a big role.5. 单选题Generally, prompt cooling and proper refrigeration of foods can hold （ ）bacteria in foods to a safe level.问题1选项A.a number ofB.the number ofC.an amount ofD.a quantity of【答案】B【解析】句意:一般来说，迅速冷却并经过适当的冷藏，食物中的细菌量会被控制在安全范围内。考查短语辨析。a number of若干，许多; the number of 的数量; an amount of 总量”通常与不可数、无生命的名词连用；a quantity of 一些。故B符合句意。6. 翻译题Translate the following into Chinese.Most people benefit from international trade, for the same general reasons that most people benefit from the division of labor within nations and within localities. By participating in a broader community within which individuals and groups sell what they can produce with the greatest (comparative) efficiency, people can secure a far greater quantity and variety of goods than each individual could possibly obtain if he had to produce every one himself. There are, of course, many instances when blocking or limiting trade can bring advantages to particular groups at the expense of the broader society. But the more these groups succeed in enforcing such restrictions, the lower the standard of living and the slower the pace of economic growth for the community as a whole.As with communities, so too with nations. Specific interests can gain from import restrictions and economic theory even recognizes cases in which a trade barrier might leave an entire nation better off albeit at the expense of other nations. In most circumstances, however, open trade - by maximizing economic efficiency enhances the welfare and the standard of living of the nation and of the wider world.【答案】大多数人从国际贸易中获益，这跟大多数人从国家内部和地方内部的分工中获益的原因大致相同。通过参与一个更广泛的社区，这个社区中个人与团体以最高的（相对）效率出售他们所能生产的产品，人们获得的商品数量与种类远远超过自己能生产的。当然，在很多情况下，组织或者限制贸易能够给某些特定群体带来好处，代价是整个社会的利益。但是，这些团体越是成功地执行这些限制，整个社区的生活水平就越低，经济增长的速度就越慢。 社区如此，国家也是如此。特定的利益能够从进口限制中获得，经济理论甚至承认，在某些情况下，贸易壁垒可能常会使国家经济变得更好，尽管是以别国利益为代价。然而，在大多情况下，开放贸易通过最大化经济效率提高国家和更广泛世界的福利和生活水平。 7. 单选题We booked rooms at the hotel （ ）we should find no vacancies on our arrival.问题1选项A.wheneverB.ifC.sinceD.lest【答案】D【解析】考查语法中连词的用法。A项whenever 表示“无论何时”；B项if表示“如果；是否”；C项since表示“自从；既然”；D项lest表示“以免，唯恐”，根据句意以及逻辑关系可知，本题正确答案为D项。8. 单选题Color and sex are not relevant （ ）whether a person is suitable for the job.问题1选项A.onB.forC.toD.with【答案】C【解析】考查固定搭配的介词。be relevant to表示“与相关的”，句意：人种和性别与一个人是否适合工作无关。因此，本题正确答案为C项。9. 单选题Have your ever heard the old （ 1 ）,Never judge a book by cover?

cover”是一句谚语，译为“不要以貌取人”，B选项saying表示“谚语”。因此，正确答案为B项。2.考查动词辨析。A选项follow表示“跟随；遵守”，B选项obey表示“遵守；服从”，C选项watch“表示观看”，D选项observe表示“观察；遵守法律或协议”。四个选项中，obey的语气较强，通常指服从命令，法律；遵循原则。由原文可知，不要以貌取人是一个通常性规则。因此，本题选择A项最合适。3.考查名词辨析。A选项heart表示“心；心脏”，B选项head表示“头，上端”，C选项mind表示“理智；精神；智力”，D选项brain表示“大脑，智力”。这句话的意思是“有些人的智力在一些特定情况下才会发挥出来”。因此本题正确答案是C。4.考查名词辨析。A选项condition表示“条件，情况”，B选项situation表示“情况；状况”，C选项circumstance表示“环境；情况；境遇”，D选项occasion表示“场合；时机”。根据后文的例子，在写作方面有天赋的男子在一个美丽的女孩面前说不出话，用纸和笔却能很好地表达。说明有些人在某些特定情况下才能表现出聪明才智。因此本题正确答案是B。5.考查名词辨析。A选项present表示“礼物；现在”，B选项hand表示“手，帮助”，C选项pen表示“钢笔，作家”，D选项gift表示“天赋；礼物”。创造性的写作是一种非同寻常的天赋。因此本题正确答案是D。6.考查形容词辨析。A选项motionless表示“静止的；不动的”，B选项hopeless表示“无望的，无可救药的”，C选项speechless表示“说不出话的，非语言能表达的”，D选项helpless表示“无助的，没用的”。根据后面一句doesnt talk smoothly和第一段最后一句可知，男孩在女孩面前是“说不出话的”，故本题正确答案为C。7.考查动词辨析。A选项search表示“寻找；搜索”，B选项look表示“看，注意”，C选项study表示“学习，研究”，D选项call表示“打电话；称呼；拜访”。根据上下文可知，此句句意应为“他笨拙地搜索语言却也不能流利交谈”，因此本题答案是A。8.考查名词辨析。A选项error强调违反标准或道德所做的错事， B选项fault强调性格或责任上的弱点。C选项mistake强调日常生活中看法和判断的错误；D选项wrong强调坏事、恶行、犯罪。四个词都可表示“错误”，但侧重点各不相同。原句意思是“不会犯认为他愚蠢这样的错误”，属于看法判断上的错误，因此C项更符合题意。9.考查介词辨析。原句意思是“他能用纸和笔非常好的表达自己。”A选项from表示“从；来自”，B选项with表示“用某种工具”，C选项in表示“用某种材料”，D选项by表示“通过某种方法”。因此本题正确答案是B。10.考查词组辨析。A选项fool sb away表示“把某人骗开”，B选项fool you around 表示“愚弄某人”，C选项fool sb out of表示“骗某人不要做某事”，D选项fool sb into表示“骗某人去做某事”。根据第二段第一句可知，有些人会通过表象让别人误认为他聪明，也就是骗别人髙估他们的智力，故本题正确答案选D。11.考查词组辨析。A选项put up with表示“忍受，容忍”，B选项put on表示“穿上；增加；假装”，C选项put up表示“提供；建造；举起”，D选项put off 表示“推迟；阻止”。由第二段可知，有些人会通过伪装表象让别人误认为他聪明，也就是put on a good appearance。因此本题正确答案为B。12.考查词组辨析。A选项take note表示“做笔记”，B选项write notes搭配不当，是中式表达，C选项表示take notice “注意到”，D选项take care表示“当心”。根据句意可知，学生在课堂上应是“认真听讲并做笔记”。因此，本题正确答案为A项。13.考查固定搭配。A选项be up to表示“胜任；由决定”，B选项due to表示“由于”，C选项be bound to表示“必然，一定要”，D选项be about to表示“即将”。将四个选项代入原文分析可知，C选项最为合适，因此本题正确答案为C。14.考查固定搭配。A选项turn to表示“转向；变成；求助于”，B选项when it comes to表示“当提到，就而论；”，C选项get to表示“到达，开始”，D选项lead to表示“导致；通向”。原句意思是“当提到考试的时候”，故本题正确答案为B。15.考查逻辑关系。A选项top 表示“顶部”，B选项center表示“中心；中央”，C选项middle 表示“中间的，中等的”，D选项bottom表示“底部的”。由本句中but可知，第二段最后一句与前面一句应为转折关系。前文提到学生上课认真听讲并做笔记，因此下文内容应转折为“成绩却垫底”，故本题正确答案为D。16.考查形容词辨析。因为被修饰词idea是名词，所以空缺处应为形容词。D项topic表示“主题”，为名词，可直接排除。A选项mere表示“仅仅的”，B选项major表示“主要的，主修的”，C选项main表示“主要的，最重要的”。main强调“主要的，至高的，中心的”，major强调“重要的，影响大的，要集中精力的”，而中心思想常翻译为“main idea”，故本题正确答案为C。17.考查宾语从句引导词。空缺处应为observe的宾语从句引导词。A选项how表示“如何，多少”，B选项what表示“什么，多么”，C选项however表示“无论怎样”，D选项whatever表示“无论什么”。react为不及物动词，后而不需要接宾语，因此what和whatever排除，however不能引导宾语从句，因此本题正确选项为A项。18.考查语法结构中的比较级。“the+比较级，the +比较级”表示“越就越”。因此本题正确答案为B项。19.考查副词辨析。A选项likely表示“可能，或许”，B选项properly表示“恰当地；合理地”，C选项fortunately表示“幸运地”，D选项necessarily表示“必要地，必然地”。句意可理解为“你观察的情形越多，你的判断可能会越正确”，因此正确答案为A。20.考查固定搭配。A选项count on表示“指望；依靠”，B选项ahead of 表示“在前”，C选项fall behind表示“落后，拖欠”，D选项take your time表示“别着急，从容做”。根据最后一句话“不要以貌取人”可知不要急于评判一个人。因此D项为正确答案。10. 单选题Its good to know that quite a few popular English expressions actually（ ）from the Bible.问题1选项A.acquireB.resultC.obtainD.derive【答案】D【解析】考查动词词义辨析。A选项acquire表示“获得，取得”；B选项result表示“结果，导致”；C选项obtain表示“获得，取得”；D选项derive表示“源于，得自”。根据句意可知，很多流行的英语表达实际上来自圣经。因此，本题选择D项最符合句意。11. 单选题It is reported that fewer and fewer of todays workers expect to spend their working lives in the same field, （ ）the same company.问题1选项A.much worseB.less likelyC.all elseD.let alone【答案】D【解析】句意:据报道，如今越来越少的工人愿意一辈子从事一个领域的工作，更不用说在一个公司了。考查短语辨析。much worse 更糟糕的是;less likely 最不可能的是;all else 其他一切；let alone 更不用说。故D符合句意。12. 单选题Dont this news to the public until we give you the go-ahead.问题1选项A.relieveB.releaseC.relateD.inform【答案】B【解析】考查动词词义辨析。A选项relieve表示“解除，减轻”；B选项release表示“释放，发布”；C选项relate表示“涉及，关联，认同”；D选项inform表示“通知，告诉”。根据句意可知，在得到许可前切勿向大众发布消息。故本题正确答案为B选项。13. 单选题（ ） such as a washing machine and microwave offer a lot of convenience to people in their housework.问题1选项A.ApplicationsB.InstrumentsC.AppliancesD.Facilities【答案】C【解析】考查名词词义辨析。A选项application表示“应用；申请；应用程序”；B选项instrument表示“仪器；工具；乐器；手段；器械”；C选项appliance表示“装置；器具，器械（尤指家用电器）”；D选项facility表示“设备，工具；容易；灵巧；才能；天赋”。根据a washing machine and microwave（洗衣机和微波炉）可知，句意是指家用电器为人们在家务上提供了很多方便。因此，本题的正确答案为C项。14. 单选题A healthy trading system requires that countries be both eager exporters and importers. If nations dont spend what they earn abroador if weak economies make them weak importers-then the trading system will collapse. That is todays problem.Where will future trade expansion come from? Europe seems a doubtful candidate. With feeble economic growth, it won t buy a lot more exports. Latin America is in a similar position. Many big countries (Argentina, Brazil) are so burdened by debt that their growth is hobbled and they strive for export surpluses-earning precious dollars-to repay their international loans. As for Africa, its so poor that it hardly matters in global trade.Well, what about Asia? It ought to save the global trading system, but it may do just the opposite. These countries are ferocious exporters; they seem to strive for permanent trade surpluses and hoard their excess export earnings. Consider whats happened to their foreign exchange reserves. Since 1996, the foreign exchange reserves of some major Asian countries have jumped from about $500 billion to more than $1.3 trillion. These funds are typically left in safe investments, such as U.S. Treasury securities. A lot of attention has focused on China, but the problem is larger than China alone.As a result, the trading system lacks circularity. The justification for free trade is that everyone ultimately benefits. Countries do what they do best. Poor countries sell inexpensive labor-intensive goods to wealthy countries and buy sophisticated knowledge-intensive goods. Living standards in all countries rise. Some workers and industries may temporarily lose, but most consumers benefit and most workers are ultimately re-employed in trade-competitive industries. Trade doesnt permanently destroy jobs; spending is circular.If too many countries hoard, the logic of free trade collapses. Trade can become an economic depressant and job destroyer. Too many sellers chase too few buyers. Countries compete for bigger shares of stagnant markets and try to shift unemployment abroad. A great, if silent, struggle has begun. For decades, expanding trade promoted global progress. It reduced poverty and spread prosperity. But if the trading system cant solve its basic problem-over-reliance on the US market-it could foster political division and economic vulnerability for all. Trading patterns must become more balanced and sustainable. 1.Some big Latin America countries are（ ）.2.Which of the following statements about certain regional economy is TRUE?3.According to the author, the free trade system will collapse when（ ）.4.The author strongly advocates that a sustainable free trade system（ ）.5.The last paragraph mainly deals with（ ）.问题1选项A.exporting more for enough foreign currency to pay their debtB.exporting surpluses as to reserve enough precious US dollarsC.using US dollars to pay all their international and domestic debtsD.using exporting as an effective way for their economic prosperity问题2选项A.Europe may help the future world trade expansion.B.Latin Americas debt would hinder its export capacityC.Asia may enhance trade expansion but not spending muchD.Africa finds it hard to emerge in world-trade expansion问题3选项A.trade became economic depres
