Choose the ONE you think is the best answer and then write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. Text A 18,000 years ago, much of Europe lay buried beneath vast sheets of ice, hundreds of metres thick. Ever since this astonishing fact was discovered in the last century, scientists have speculated on the nature of the Ice Age climate and the circumstances that brought it to an end. More recently, people have wondered if climatic changes could be taking place in our own time. During the early 1970s there were disastrous droughts in Africa, and frequent failures of the Indian monsoon. In 1976, Europe sweltered in the hottest summer for over a century, and experienced one of the worst droughts since records began. Could such events as these be symptoms of a worldwide climatic shift? Even small changes in climate that occur from time to time can have a highly damaging effect on agriculture. With food reserves now standing at only a few percent of annual production, the world is extremely vulnerable to adverse shifts in climate. It is therefore vitally important for us to understand how climatic changes take place. Equally important is the need to understand why such changes occur. Until recently we have assumed that variations in regional and global climate observed over the centuries resulted from natural phenomena. But there is now some tentative evidence suggesting that man’s activities are already affecting local climates, and may affect regional and even global climatic patterns in the future. There are several ways in which man could be altering regional and global climate. First, the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere is increasing, as a result of burning fossil fuels. Second, the atmospheric transparency is decreasing, because of particulate matter (dust, sulphates, liquid droplets, etc.) being injected into the atmosphere from such activities as industry, cars and agriculture. Next, deforestation, irrigation, urbanization and agriculture are changing the albedo of the Earth’s surface. (The albedo is the percentage of incoming solar radiation that is directly reflected outward.) Fourth, the atmosphere is being directly heated by the burning of fossil and nuclear fuels. And finally, oil films from spills and blowouts are altering the rate of thermal energy transfer between the oceans and the atmosphere. 31. The topic of the first paragraph is ______. A. the reasons for the Ice Age climate B. Europe’s climate 18,000 years ago C. the circumstances that brought the Ice Age climate to a close D. scientists’ speculation on the Ice Age climate 32. In the second paragraph the author illustrates ______ with the examples. A. a worldwide climatic shift B. the possibility of global climatic changes taking place in our own time C. climatic changes in the 1970s D. the effects of climatic changes in 1970s 33. The world “adverse” (Paragraph 3) means ______. A. favourable B. unfavourable C. reverse D. preserve 34. The abedo is changed by ______. A. the carbon dioxide content of the atmosphere B. the burning of fossil and nuclear fuels C. irrigation D. oil films from spills and blowouts 35. Which of the following does the passage mainly discuss? A. Are man’s activities changing the Earth’s climate? B. Could the events of the early 1970s and of 1976 be symptoms of a worldwide climatic shift? C. What can have a highly damaging effect on agriculture? D. Is it important for human beings to understand why climatic changes occur? Text B A million years have been added to man’s evolutionary history. While anthropologists once estimated the age of Zinjanthropus, the earliest tool-making creature, as more than 600,000 years, a recent radioactive dating measurement, based on volcanic rock samples from East Africa, where Zinjanthropus was discovered in 1959, now indicates that this primitive man may have roamed the earth 1,750,000 years ago. The new pushes evidence for the emergence of tool-making — one of the two essential attributes of humanity --- back into the Pliocene Age, and it seems to fit more easily into the picture of human evolution than the 600,000 year figure. The Zinjanthropus was capable of walking erect, so that its hands were freed, and it had a brain large enough to enable it to perform such simple tasks as making primitive cutting tools from quartz rock. The Zinjanthropus was not a man of the modern species, Homo sapiens, but many anthropologists see in the creature a type that could be very close to, if not actually in, the line of human evolution. The Zinjanthropus must be classified as a man, albeit of a primitive type, because no animal species other than man both makes and uses tools. Anthropologists consider it probable that the larger brain and higher intelligence of modern man evolved as primitive manlike creatures learned to use tools and to communicate by speech — the other essential of humanity. Such a course of evolution seems more reasonable starting nearly two million years ago than it would at the faster evolutionary pace required if the process started only a half million years ago. 36. A million years were added to man’s past by the ______. A. unearthing of Zinjanthropus B. discovery of some primitive cutting tools C. invention of a radioactive dating process D. dating of rock samples from East Africa 37. Anthropologists consider the Zinjanthropus the first ______. A. member of Homo sapiens B. manlike creature to possess a brain C. tool-making creature D. manlike creature 38. Because the Zinjanthropus walked erect, it was able to ______. A. protect itself from its enemies B. make and use tools C. communicate by speech D. both B and C 39. The new date fits the human evolutionary pattern more easily than the old because it ______. A. allows a more reasonable evolutionary pace B. indicates man is younger than was believed C. establishes the existence of man in the Pliocene Age D. indicates that man is nearly two million years old 40. An appropriate title for this selection would be ______. A. Our Hardiest Ancestor B. Tool-maker of the Pliocene Age C. Anthropological Discoveries in East Africa D. The Attributes of Humanity Text C If anything, comets are even more fascinating to amateur astronomers than to professionals, because this is one area where amateurs can (and do) make major discoveries. One of the brightest comets to appear in this century was discovered in 1965 by a pair of Japanese amateurs. Ikeya and Seki. The person who discovers a new comet gets his (or her) name put on it. And amateurs have a head start in the race to discover new comets; the shorter focal lengths on their smaller telescopes give them a positive advantage over the huge telescopes such as Mount Wilson which are built to scan for galaxies, not comparatively short distances. Most scientists tend to agree with astronomer Fred T. Whippl that a comet is really a large mushy snowball of frozen ices and gases (ammonia, methane, possibly carbon dioxide) with a few bits of solid particles stuck inside. But no one is sure how comets are created in the first place. Scientists believe that comets do not exhibit their characteristic tails while they lurk far out in space away from the warmth of the sun but, rather, wander in the form of frozen lumps, like icebergs. This is the nucleus of the comet. It is only when the comet approaches the heat of the sun that the ice begins to melt and stream away in the form of visible gases. The tails of the comet stream out behind for, literally, astronomical distances. Halle’s Comet had a tail 94 million miles long when it visited here in 1910. The Great Comet of 1843 had a tail 186 million miles long. As they approach the sun, comets increase in speed; at perihelion, the point of closest approach to the sun, they achieve maximum heating. At perihelion, comets can suffer heat shock, like a glass poured full of boiling water, and break up into pieces that sail off into fiery orbits of their own. Even if they do not break up, so many gases are vaporized during the close passage to the sun that the tails are usually a lot more spectacular after comets have passed the sun than before. For all the fiery display it makes in the sky, the nucleus of a comet is relatively small. Scientists believe that the nucleus of an average comet is only a mile or two in diameter. Despite that small size, the cloud of liberated gases and solid particle bits that is formed around it (called a coma) may have a diameter of a million miles or more. This coma and tail are formed from only a melted meter or so of the original material. 41. In the first paragraph, it is implied but not directly stated that ______. A. the 1965 comet was named after Ikeya and Seki B. the 1965 comet was discovered by two professionals C. Ikeya and Seki made a major discovery D. Ikeya and Seki were amateur astronomers 42. According to Paragraph 3, the nucleus of a comet ______. A. requires the warmth of the sun to survive B. is a frozen lump that roams through space C. has no form D. does not exhibit their tails 43. In Paragraph 3, the last sentence (“The Great Comet….”) is an example of ______. A. Paragraph 3, Sentence 1 B. Paragraph 3, Sentence 3 C. Paragraph 3, Sentence 4 D. Paragraph 3, Sentence 5 44. According to Paragraph 4, “perihelion” is ______. A. the point at which comets break up into pieces B. the point of greatest speed C. the point approaching the sun D. the point closest to the sun 45. The subject of Paragraphs 2, 3, 4, and 5 is ______. A. why comets have long tails B. the lack of information about comets C. what is known, scientifically, about comet D. the origin of comets Section B (15 points) Directions: Read the following passage and answer the questions that follow. Write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. Soon after dawn the Goa shore lifts itself out of the sea, a horizon of purplish rocks and palms, sabred by the dark sails of dhows. The Indian trippers who came aboard at Bombay, fashionably scarfed, in tweeds and corduroys, have accepted a mood of southern lassitude, and now gather in pyjama-clad groups to gaze respectfully shorewards. As the ship swings into a river-mouth the shores close in, a red watchtower on every headland and baroque chapels gleaming through the greenery. Over the starboard-bow Nova Goa is painted brilliantly on the sky, a hubbub of color with bells chiming in the churches built on its high places. A few minutes later the gang-plank goes down, and as the passengers are released into the smiling apathy of the water-front, a flock of mynahs settle on the ships’ rigging. A line of golden omnibuses wait to bear the voyagers away to distant parts of the territory. The town itself is served by calashes of skeletal elegance, drawn by ponies who, even while dozing in the shafts, are unable to relax their straining posture. For foreigners there are taxis of reputable old Continental make, such as De Dion Bouton. They are decorated with brasswork and advertisements for German Beer. Although their owners are usually Christians, Hindu gods, considered as more effective in purely routine matters of protection than, say, St Christopher, squat amongst the artificial flowers over the dashboards. The quayside, which is really the heart of the town, is presided over by a statue, not — as one would have expected — of the great Albuquerque, founder of the colony, but of one Jose Custodio Faria, who, the inscription relates, discovered the doctrine of hypnotic suggestion. A stranger, newly landed is whisked quickly beyond the range of Faria’s ardent gaze. Ahead of him strides the porter, carrying on his shoulder the luggage which several small boys, running on either side, reach up to touch with their finger-tips, as if it contained relics of extraordinary curative virtue. This attendance entitles them to claim a reward of one anna a piece. The baggage is then placed in the taxi, and the newcomer is driven to the Hotel Central, because it is a long way from the centre of the town, and therefore a worth-while taxi-fare. All this happens to be to the good. The Central is a precious repository of the atmosphere of Goa, and worthy of mention not on account of its advertised attraction --- the small tiled dungeon, called a bathroom, available with every room --- but of many less tangible charms unappreciated by the management. The fine old Portuguese colonial building growing naturally from the red earth of Goa is the colour of Spanish oxide, with its main façade covered in green tiles and a white make-belief balcony moulded on one wall. Coconuts and frangipani blossoms float down a jade-green stream at the back of the house, and burnished, bright-eyed crows come hopping into the front rooms and try to fly away with the guests’ sun-glasses. The beach is just across the road, and you can sit and watch Goans prowling about it in search of the nacreous discs with which they repair their old-fashioned mother-of-pearl windows. A cab-driver sleeps on his seat under a banyan-tree just outside the dining-room, and when any guest wants to go, the waiter leans out and wakes him up by pulling the end of his whip. 46. Apparently the writer observes Goa as one of the tourists. What does he intend to convey to the reader? (3 points) 47. What does the writer describe in each paragraph? (6 points) 48. Why does the writer begin a new paragraph in Paragraph 2? (3 points) 49. How is Paragraph 3 linked to Paragraph 2? (3 points) Part Three Translation (60%) Section A (40 points, 20 points for each passage) Directions: Put the following two passages into Chinese and write your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. Passage One I have just returned from a visit to my landlord — the solitary neighbour that I shall be troubled with. This is certainly a beautiful country! In all England, I do not believe that I could have fixed on a situation so completely removed from the stir of society. A perfect misanthropist’s (厌世者) heaven: and Mr. Heathcliff and I are such a suitable pair to divide the desolation between us. A capital fellow! He little imagined how my heart warmed towards him when I beheld his black eyes withdraw so suspiciously under their brows, as I rode up, and when his fingers sheltered themselves, with a jealous resolution, still farther in his waistcoat, as I announced my name. Passage Two When you’re on the go, does the quality of your favorite music travel with you? Or does the full sound experience get left home? The Philips GoGear with FullSound was created to enhance the sound quality of your MP3 music while you play it. Want to get out everything from your MP3 files? With Philips FullSound you can.
