周思遠
題目:
For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Learning is a daily experience and a lifelong mission.” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of lifelong learning. You should write at least 120 words, no more than 180 words.
參考范文:
Currently in this constantly changing world, learning becomes a seemingly convenient but actually more complex matter. As an old saying goes,” Learning is a daily experience and a lifetime mission”. Apparently, the meaning of this saying is that if we truly desire to learn something, we are supposed to devote our life to it.
There are several reasons accounting for this viewpoint. For one thing, learning itself is an actually complicated and painful matter, and as a result, it is advisable for us to commit much more time even our whole life to it. For another, it is exceedingly obvious that we are easy to forget what we learned, and accordingly, the significance of lifetime learning cannot be ignored. For example, memorizing vocabulary is commonly the first step of preparing for an English test. However, it is pretty difficult for us to put a huge number of new words in our mind. Therefore, we can divide these words into some groups and spend some hours each day on it in order to remember and understand these words.
To sum up, lifelong learning lays a solid foundation to the development of ourselves, and only when we realize the significance of lifetime learning can we understand the essence of learning.

題目:
For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Never go out there to see what happens, go out there to make something happen.” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of being creative rather than the mere onlookers in life. You should write at least 120 words, no more than 180 words.
參考范文:
As a famous saying goes, "Never go out there to see what happens, go out there to make something happen." Simple as the saying is, its meaning is profound and thought-provoking, which is meant to tell us that we are supposed to be creative instead of acting as the onlooker.
Conspicuous are the impacts of being creative and I would like to explore the following aspects. To begin with, it is to leading a team to make constant progress what water is to fish, which can be best illustrated by an example concerning an extraordinary basketball player, Yao Ming. Moreover,
this kind of innovation also makes it possible for a nation to promote its international status and
improve the comprehensive competitiveness.
From my perspective, keeping creative is so essential that adequate importance must be attached to
it. Only when we literally realize the key role it plays can we become better selves in the foreseeable future.

題目:
For this part, you are allowed 30 minutes to write an essay commenting on the saying “Listening is more important than talking.” You can cite examples to illustrate the importance of listening. You should write at least 120 words, no more than 180 words.
參考范文:
As the most talented creature in this planet,we human beings are in possession of two kinds of most powerful capabilities, which are listening and talking. Compared with talking, more often than not, the significance of listening is way ahead in our life.
The most typical example of the importance of talking lies in the exchange among family members. When we are accustomed to talking without listening, in the process of which we might only focus on ourselves, feeling of others are ignored and even hurt. Without listening, the essential passport towards mutual understanding, the relation among our family members may bit by bit go alienated .
Besides , listening can also promote the efficiency of teamwork and efficiency is of the utmost consequence in such a fast-tempo society.
Talking is a window through which we convey ourselves , while listening is a door via which we understand each other . A life without mutual listening is just like a house without a door. Careful listening , so at least it seems to me , is a necessity but not a luxury in our daily life as well as in our work .

Section C
When you look up at the night sky, what do you see? There are other heavenly bodies out there besides the moon and stars. One of the most fascinating of this is a comet. Comets were formed around the same time the earth was formed. They are made up of ice and other frozen liquids and gasses. Now and then these dirty snowballs begin to orbit the sun just as the planets do. As a comet gets closer to the sun, some gasses in it begin to unfreeze. They combine with dust particles from the comet to form a huge cloud. As the comet gets even nearer to the sun and solar wind blows the cloud behind the comet thus forming its tail. The tail and generally fuzzy atmosphere around the comet are characteristics that can help identify this phenomenon in the night sky. In any given year, about dozen known comets come close to the sun in their orbits. The average person can’t see them all of course. Usually there is only one or two a year bright enough to be seen with the naked eye. Comet Hale-Bopp discovered in 1995 was an unusually bright comet. Its orbit bought relatively to the earth within 122 million miles of it. But Hale-Bopp came a long way on its earthly visit. It won’t be back for another 4 thousand years or so.

第一篇
題目:
中國的父母往往過于關(guān)注孩子的學習,以至于不要他們幫忙做家務。他們對孩子的首要要求就是努力學習,考得好,能上大學。他們相信這是為孩子好,因為在中國這樣競爭激烈的社會里,只有好成績才能保證前途光明。中國父母還認為,如果孩子在社會上取得大的成就,父母就會受到尊重。因此,他們愿意犧牲自己的時間,愛好和興趣,為孩子提供更好的條件。
參考譯文:
Chinese
parents tend to place so much emphasis on their children’s learning
that they won’t let their kids do any housework. The primary demands that they want to make of their children are to study hard, to achieve high grades in order to enter top universities. They believe it is good for their children because in such a highly competitive society, only the best achievement can ensure a bright prospect. Also, Chinese parents claim that they will be respected if their children get significant status in the society. Therefore, they are willing to sacrifice time, habits and interest of their own to provide their children with better living conditions.
解析:這篇翻譯較以前的翻譯題目難度有所下降,話題和生活緊密相關(guān),不像之前考過的核能,假日經(jīng)濟等較為學術(shù)的話題,從而單詞也明顯簡單,句式結(jié)構(gòu)也不復雜,比較容易作答。
第一句:
常用短語“如此。。。以至于” (so...
that...)的考察。關(guān)注可以寫簡單詞組pay
attention to, 其他都較簡單。
第二句:
需要用到定語從句,大學的表達可靈活一些,famous
universities 也可以。
第三句:
復合句,注意句與句之間的聯(lián)系。
第四句:
與上句并列關(guān)系,注意同義詞“相信”和“認為”要做替換,不要重復詞匯。
第五句:簡單句。

題目:
云南省的麗江古鎮(zhèn)是的旅游目的地之一。那里的生活節(jié)奏比大多數(shù)中國城市都要緩慢。麗江到處都是美麗的自然風光,眾多的少數(shù)民族同胞提供了各式各樣、豐富多彩的文化讓游客體驗。歷,麗江還以“愛之城”而聞名。當?shù)厝酥辛鱾髦S多關(guān)于因愛而生,為愛而死的故事。如今,在中外游客眼中,這個古鎮(zhèn)被視為愛情和浪漫的天堂。
參考譯文:
The ancient town of Lijiang in Yunnan province is one of the famous tourist destinations. Its living rhythm is slower than that of most other Chinese cities. Lijiang is full of natural beautiful sceneries, where numerous minority nationalities provide rich and varied cultures in order to give tourists a different experience. Historically, Lijiang was also known as “ the city of love”. Plenty of stories about living for love and dying for love have been spread among the natives. Nowadays, the old town equals the paradise of love and romance in the eyes of Chinese and foreign tourists.

選詞填空原文(一)
來源:El Niño Is On Its Way – Time

For many Americans, 2013 ended with an unusually bitter cold snap. Late November and December saw early snow and bone-chilling temperatures in much of the country, part of a year when—for the first time in two decades—record-cold days will likely turn out to have outnumbered record-warm ones. But the U.S. was the exception: November was the warmest ever globally, and the provisional data indicates that 2013 is likely to have been the fourth-hottest year on record.
Enjoy the snow now, because chances are good that 2014 will be even hotter—perhaps the hottest year since records have been kept. That’s because, scientists are predicting, 2014 will be an El Niño year.
El Niño, Spanish for “the child”, occurs when surface ocean waters in the southern Pacific become abnormally warm. So large is the Pacific, covering 30% of the planet’s surface, that the specific energy generated by its warming is enough to touch off a series of weather changes around the world. El Niño are associated with abnormally dry conditions in the Southeast Asia and Australia. They can lead to extreme rain in parts of North and South America, even as southern Africa experiences dry weather. Marine life may be affected too: El Niño the rising of the cold, nutrient-rich water that supports large fish populations, and the unusually warm ocean temperatures can destroy coral.

第一套
本篇原文是美國程序員、風險投資家Paul Graham(保羅·格雷厄姆)于06年在自己的博客所寫的一篇由硅谷發(fā)展引起的對如何投資和發(fā)展信息技術(shù)公司的思考的文章的節(jié)選。
原文地址http://www.paulgraham.com/siliconvalley.html
Could you reproduce Silicon Valley elsewhere, or is there something unique about it?
It wouldn’t be surprising if it were hard to reproduce in other countries, because you couldn’t reproduce it in most of the US either. What does it take to make a silicon valley?
It is the right people. If you could get the right ten thousand people to move from Silicon Valley to Buffalo, Buffalo would become Silicon Valley.
You only need two kinds of people to create a technology hub: rich people and nerds.
Observation bears this out: within the US, towns have become startup hubs if and only if they have both rich people and nerds. Few startups happen in Miami, for example, because although it’s full of rich people, it has few nerds. It’s not the kind of place nerds like.
Whereas Pittsburgh has the opposite problem: plenty of nerds, but no rich people. The top US Computer Science departments are said to be MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, and Carnegie-Mellon. MIT yielded Route 128. Stanford and Berkeley yielded Silicon Valley. But Carnegie-Mellon? The record skips at that point. Lower down the list, the University of Washington yielded a high-tech community in Seattle, and the University of Texas at Austin yielded one in Austin. But what happened in Pittsburgh? And in Ithaca, home of Cornell, which is also high on the list?
I grew up in Pittsburgh and went to college at Cornell, so I can answer for both. The weather is terrible, particularly in winter, and there’s no interesting old city to make up for it, as there is in Boston. Rich people don’t want to live in Pittsburgh or Ithaca. So while there are plenty of hackers who could start startups, there’s no one to invest in them.
Do you really need the rich people? Wouldn’t it work to have the government invest in the nerds? No, it would not. Startup investors are a distinct type of rich people. They tend to have a lot of experience themselves in the technology business. This helps them pick the right startups, and means they can supply advice and connections as well as money. And the fact that they have a personal stake in the outcome makes them really pay attention.
56.原文第一段第一句反問句“Could you reproduce Silicon Valley elsewhere, or is there something unique about it?”可得知答案選A——Its success is hard to copy anywhere else. 選項copy同義改寫原文的reproduce。
57.由題干大寫字母Miami定位到原文第五段“Few startups happen in Miami, for example, because although it’s full of rich people, it has few nerds. It’s not the kind of place nerds like.”由因果關(guān)系詞because找到原因——這里既是有很多富裕的人,卻幾乎沒有nerds(癡迷科研的人)。所以答案選B——Lack of the right kind of talents.
58,由題干大寫字母Carnegie-Mellon, MIT, Stanford, Berkeley等定位到第六段,問CM和其他的是哪里有不同?!癟he top US Computer Science departments are said to be MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, and Carnegie-Mellon. MIT yielded Route 128. Stanford and Berkeley yielded Silicon Valley. But Carnegie-Mellon? The record skips at that point.”原文講到了MIT, Stanford, Berkeley都yielded產(chǎn)生了很有名的science department,而Carnegie-Mellon呢?這個記錄可以直接跳過忽略。言下之意就是CM沒有出名的science department,所以答案選D——It does not pay much attention to business startups.
59題,由題干大寫字母Boston定位到倒數(shù)第二段。定位句“The weather is terrible, particularly in winter, and there’s no interesting old city to make up for it, as there is in Boston”說到了Boston是一個無聊的老城市,而定位句的下一句“So while there are plenty of hackers who could start startups, there’s no one to invest in them”說到了這樣的城市無法吸引投資。所以答案選C——It is not likely to attract lots of investors and nerds.
60題,由startup investors定位到最后一段。Startup investors不僅富有,他們一般都經(jīng)驗豐富,而且能給提供一些建議,所以答案選C——They can do more than providing money.
61. C——It may prevent your business and career from advancing.
62. B——Encourage people to disagree and argue.
63. C——To remove misunderstanding.
64. D——They take care not to hurt each other’s feelings.
65. D——Acknowledge their contribution.
第二套
56.A——it is disappearing
57.B——Electronically
58.D——Spending money is so fast and easy
59.A——It represents a change in the modern world
60.D——He feels insecure in ever-changing modern world
這篇文章是發(fā)表在the Atlantic上的一篇新聞報道的節(jié)選段拼湊而成的,最后一段是出題人自己纂寫的。原文地址http://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2014/12/the-year-in-sleep/383990/
Everybody sleeps—so goes the Sesame Street song meant for obstinately awake children. That may be true, but what people stay up late to catch—or wake up early in order not to miss—varies by culture.
Around the world, people changed sleep patterns thanks to the start or end of daylight savings time. Russians, for example, began to wake up about a half-hour later each day after President Vladimir Putin shifted the country permanently to “winter time” starting on October 26.
Russia’s other late nights and early mornings generally coincided with public holidays. One such spike was on New Year’s Eve, which Russians tend to ring in with unusual fervor, as well as on World War II Victory Day. According to another Jawbone finding, Russians have the world’s latest bedtime on December 31, hitting the hay at around 3:30 a.m.
Russians also got up an hour later on International Women’s Day, the day for coddling and celebrating female relatives.
Similarly, Americans’ late nights, late mornings, and longest sleeps coincided with three-day weekends.
Canada got the least sleep of the year the night it beat Sweden in the Olympic hockey final.
The World Cup was also a major sleep-deprivation culprit. The worst night for sleep in the U.K. was the night of the England-Italy match on June 14. Brits stayed up a half-hour later to watch it, and then they woke up earlier than usual the next morning thanks to summer nights, the phenomenon in which the sun barely sets in northern countries in the summertime. That was nothing, though, compared to Germans, Italians, and the French, who stayed up around an hour and a half later on various days throughout the summer to watch the Cup.
It should be made clear that not everyone has a device to record their sleep patterns; in some of these nations, it’s likely that only the richest people do. And people who elect to track their sleep may try to get more sleep than the average person. Even if that’s the case, though, the above findings are still striking. If the most health-conscious among us have such deep swings in our shut-eye levels throughout the year, how much sleep are the rest of us losing?
61題,定位到第一段最后一句“varies by culture”,所以答案選A——They are culture-related.
62題,由題干的大寫名詞Russian定位到第二段和第三段。第二段的“Russian, for example, began to wake up about a half-hour later each day”這一句是干擾句,起得晚不一定睡得早,所以答案推不出“他們比其他地方的人睡得更久”。然后看到第三段“Russia’s other late nights and early mornings generally coincided with public holidays”,所以答案為C——They don’t sleep much on holidays。
63題,題干問的是歐洲人缺乏睡眠的major cause主要原因是什么,由題干的大寫名詞Europeans’ loss定位到倒數(shù)第二段的“compared to Germans, Italians, and the French, who stayed up around an hour and a half later on various days throughout the summer to watch the Cup”,原文的Germans, Italians, and the French就是題干中“Europeans”的同義改寫,而他們stayed up就是為了to watch the Cup,所以說他們?nèi)狈λ叩脑虮闶荂選項——The World Cup。
64題,問的是富有的人使用設備來記錄他們的睡眠模式的原因。由rich people以及device定位到最后一段第一句,定位句只說到了記錄的事實,而非其原因。按照四級閱讀金三句原則看到定位句的下一句“And people who elect to track their sleep may try to get more sleep than the average person”,記錄睡眠的人是想要得到比普通人更多的睡眠,所以答案是B——They want to get sufficient sleep.
65題,問的是作者在最后一段所表達的觀點,定位到最后一句If the most health-conscious among us have such deep swings in our shut-eye levels throughout the year, how much sleep are the rest of us losing? 作者提到了health-conscious,人們對健康的意識是缺乏的,對健康是視而不見的,所以答案選B——Few people really know the importance of sleep.
