2006.9 SECTION 2: STUDY SKILLS

Directions: In this section, you will read several passages. Each passage is followed by several questions based on its content. You are to choose ONE best answer, (A), (B), (C) or (D), to each question. Answer all the questions following each passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in that passage and write the letter of the answer you have chosen in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET.

Questions 1—5

The purpose of the American court system is to protect the rights of the people. According to American law, if someone is accused of a crime, he or she is considered innocent until the court proves that the person is guilty. In other words, it is the responsibility of the court to prove that a person is guilty. It is not the responsibility of the person to prove

that he or she is innocent.

In order to arrest a person, the police have to be reasonably sure that a crime has been committed. The police must give the suspect the reasons why they are arresting him and tell him his rights under the law. Then the police take the suspect to the

police station to “book” him. “Booking means that the name of the person and the charges against him are formally listed at the police station.

The next step is for the suspect to go before a judge. The judge decides whether the suspect should be kept in jail or released. If the suspect has no previous criminal record and the judge feels that he will return to court rather than run away—for example, because he owns a house and has a family—he can go free. Otherwise, the suspect must put up bail. At this time, too, the judge will appoint a court layer to defend the suspect i f he can’t afford one.

The suspect returns to court a week or two later. A lawyer from the district attorney’s office presents a case against the suspect. This is called a hearing. The attorney may present evidence as well as witnesses. The judge at the hearing then decides whether there is enough reason to hold a trial. If the judge decides that there is sufficient evidence to call for a trial, he or she sets a date for the suspect to appear in court to formally plead guilty or not guilty.

At the trial, a jury of 12 people listens to the evidence from both attorneys and hears the testimony of the witnesses. Then

the jury goes into a private room to consider the evidence and decide whether the defendant is guilty of the crime. If the

jury decides that the defendant is innocent, he goes free. However, if he is convicted, the judge sets a date for the defendant to appear in court again for sentencing. At this time, the judge tells the convicted person what his punishment will be. The judge may sentence him to prison, order him to pay a fine, or place him on probation.

The American justice system is very complex and sometimes operates slowly. However, every step is designed to protect the rights of the people. These individual rights are the basis, or foundation, of the American government.

So you’ve got an invention—you and around 39,000 others each year, according to 2002 statistics!

The 64,000-dollar question, if you have come up with a device which you believe to be the answer to the energy crisis or you’ve invented a lawnmower which cuts grass with a jet of water (not so daft, someone has invented one), is how to ensure you’re the one to reap the rewards of your ingenuity. How will all you garden shed boffins out there keep others from capitalizing on your ideas and lining their pockets at your expense?

One of the first steps to protect your interest is to patent your invention. That can keep it out of the grasp of the

pirates for at least the next 20 years. And for this reason inventors in their droves beat a constant trail from all over the country to the doors of an anonymous grey-fronted building just behind London’s Holborn to try and patent their devices. The building houses the Patent Office. It’s an ant heap of corridors, offices and filing rooms—a sorting house and storage depot for one of the world’s biggest and most varied collections of technical data. Some ten million patents—English and foreign—are listed there.

File after file, catalogue after catalogue detail the brain-children o f inventors down the centuries, from a 1600’s machine gun designed to fire square bullets at infidels and round ones at Christians, to present-day laser, nuclear and computer technology.

The first ‘letters patent’ were granted as long ago as 1449 to a Flemish craftsman by the name of John Utynam. The letters, written in Latin, are still on file at the office. They were granted by King Henry VI and entitled Utynam to ‘import into this country’ his knowledge of making stained glass windows in order to install such windows at Eton College.

Present-day patents procedure is a more sophisticated affair than getting a go-ahead note from the monarch. These days the strict procedures governing whether you get a patent for your revolutionary mouse-trap or solar-powered back-scratcher have been reduced to a pretty exact science.

From start to finish it will take around two and a half years and cost ￡165 for the inventor to gain patent protection for his brainchild. That’s if he’s lucky. By no means all who apply to the Patent Office, which is a branch of the Department of Trade, get a patent.

A key man at the Patent Office is Bernard Partridge, Principal Examiner (Administration), who boils down to one word the vital ingredient any inventor needs before he can hope to overcome the many hurdles in the complex procedure of obtaining a patent—‘ingenuity’.

6.People take out a patent because they want to __________.

7.(A) keep their ideas from being stolen

8.(B) reap the rewards of somebody else’s ingenuity

9.(C) visit the patent office building

10.(D) come up with more new devices

7. The phrase ‘the brain-children of inventors’ (para.5) means _________.

(A) the children with high intelligence

(B) the inventions that people come up with

(C) a device that a child believes to be the answer to the energy crisis

(D) a lawnmower that an individual has invented to cut grass

8. What have the 1600’s machine gun and the present-day laser in common?

(A) Both were approved by the monarch.

(B) Both were granted by King Henry VI.

(C) Both were rejected by the Department of Trade.

(D) Both were patented.

9. Why is John Utynam still remembered?

(A) He is the first person to get a patent for his revolutionary mouse-trap.

(B) He is the first person to be granted an official patent.

(C) He is the first person to be an officer in the Patent Office.

(D) He is the first person to have invented a lawnmower.

10. According to the passage, how would you describe the complex procedure of obtaining a patent for an invention?

(A) It is rather expensive.

(B) It is an impossible task.

(C) It is extremely difficult.

(D) It is very tricky.

Questions 11—15

All living cells on earth require moisture for their metabolism. Cereal grains when brought in from the field, although they may appear to be dry, may contain 20 per cent of moisture or more.

If they are stored in a bin thus, there is sufficient moisture

in them to support several varieties of insects. These insects will, therefore, live and breed and, as they grow and eat the grain, it provides them with biological energy for their life processes. This energy will, just as in man, become manifest as heat. Since the bulk of the grain acts as an insulator, the temperature surrounding the colony of insects will rise so that, not only is part of the grain spoiled by the direct attack of

the insects but more may be damaged by the heat. Sometimes, the temperature may even rise to the point where the stored grain catches fire. For safe storage, grain must be dried until its moisture content is 13 per cent or less.

Traditional arts of food preservation took advantage of this principle in a number of ways. The plant seeds, wheat, rye, rice, barley millet, maize, are themselves structures evolved by nature to provide stored food. The starch of their endosperm is used for the nourishment of the embryo during the time it over-winters (if it is a plant of the Temperate Zone) and until its new leaves have grown and their chlorophyll can trap energy from the sunlight to nourish the new-grown plant. The separation by threshing and winnowing is, therefore, to some degree part of a technique of food preservation.

The direct drying of other foods has also been used. Fish has been dried in many parts of the world besides Africa. Slices of dried meat are prepared by numerous races. Biltong, a form of dried meat, was a customary food for travelers. The drying of meat or fish, either in the sun or over a fire, quite apart from the degree to which it exposes the food to infection by bacteria and infestation by insects, tends also to harm its quality. Proteins are complex molecular structures which are readily disrupted. This is the reason why dried meat becomes tough and can, with some scientific justification, by likened to leather.

The technical process of drying foods indirectly by pickling

t hem in the strong salt solutions commonly called ‘brine’ does less harm to the protein than straightforward drying, particularly if this is carried out at high temperatures. It is for this reason that many of the typical drying processes are not taken to completion. That is to say, the outer parts may be dried leaving a moist inner section. Under these circumstances, preservation is only partial. The dried food keeps longer than it would have undried but it cannot be kept indefinitely. For this reason, traditional processes are to be found in many parts of the world in which a combination of partial drying and pickling in brine is used. Quite often the drying involves exposure to smoke. Foods treated in this way are, besides fish of various sorts, bacon, hams and numerous types of sausages. 11.According to the passage, insects spoil stored cereals by

________.

12.(A) consuming all the grain themselves

13.(B) generating heat and raising the surrounding temperature

14.(C) increasing the moisture content in the grain

15.(D) attacking each other for more grain

12. In speaking of the traditional methods of food preservation, the writer ________.

(A) expresses doubts about direct smoking

(B) describes salting and pickling as ineffective

(C) condemns direct drying

(D) mentions threshing and winnowing

13.Direct drying affects the quality of meat or fish because

________.

14.(A) it exposes them to insects

15.(B) it makes them hard

16.(C) it damages the protein

17.(D) it develops bacteria

18.We can learn from the passage that salting preserves food by ________.

19.(A) destroying the protein

20.(B) drawing away moisture from the food

21.(C) drying the food in the sun

22.(D) dressing the food

15. According to the passage, partial drying is useful because ________.

(A) it damages the protein less

(B) it can be combined with pickling

(C) it leaves the inside moist

(D) it makes the food soft

Questions 16—20

We are moving inexorably into the age of automation. Our aim is not to devise a mechanism which can perform a thousand

different actions of any individual man but, on the contrary, one which could by a single action replace a thousand men. Industrial automation has moved along three lines. First there is the conveyor belt system of continuous production whereby separate operations are linked into a single sequence. The goods produced by this well-established method are untouched by the worker, and the machine replaces both unskilled and semiskilled. Secondly, there is automation with feedback

control of the quality of the product: here mechanisms are

built into the system which can compare the output with a norm, that is, the actual product with what it is supposed to be, and then correct any shortcomings. The entire cycle of operations dispenses with human control except in so far as monitors are concerned. One or two examples of this type of automation will illustrate its immense possibilities. There is a factory in the U.S.A. which makes 1,000 million electric light bulbs a year, and the factory employs three hundred people. If the preautomation techniques were to be employed, the labour force required would leap to 25,000. A motor manufacturing company

with 45,000 spare parts regulates their entire supply entirely

by computer. Computers can be entrusted with most of the supervision of industrial installations, such as chemical

plants or oil refineries. Thirdly, there is computer automation, for banks, accounting departments, insurance companies and the like. Here the essential features are the recording, storing, sorting and retrieval of information.

The principal merit of modern computing machines is the achievement of their vastly greater speed of operation by comparison with unaided human effort; a task which otherwise might take years, if attempted at all, now takes days or hours.

One of the most urgent problems of industrial societies rapidly introducing automation is how to fill the time that will be made free by the machines which will take over the tasks of the workers. The question is not simply of filling empty time but also of utilizing the surplus human energy that will be released. We are already seeing straws in the wind: destructive outbursts on the part of youth whose work no longer demands muscular strength. While automation will undoubtedly do away with a large number of tedious jobs, are we sure that it will not put others which are equally tedious in their place For an enormous amount of sheer monitoring will be required. A man in an automated plant may have to sit for hours on and watching dials and taking decisive action when some signal informs him that all is not well. What meaning will his occupation bear for the worker How will he devote his free time after a four or

five hour stint of labour Moreover, what, indeed, will be the significance for him of his leisure If industry of the future could be purged of its monotony and meaninglessness, man would then be better equipped to use his leisure time constructively.

16.The main purpose of automation is _________.

17.(A) to devise the machine which could replace the semi-skilled

18.(B) to process information as fast as possible

19.(C) to develop an efficient labor-saving mechanism

20.(D) to make an individual man perform many different actions

17. The chief benefit of computing machines is ________.

(A) their greater speed of operation

(B) their control of the product quality

(C) their conveyor belt system of continuous production

(D) their supervision of industrial installations

18. One of the problems brought about by automation in industrial societies is _________.

(A) plenty of information

(B) surplus human energy

(C) destructive outbursts

(D) less leisure time

19. Which of the following best explains the use of ‘stint’ (para.4)

(A) Effort.

(B) Force.

(C) Excess.

(D) Period.

20. According to the passage, which of the following statements is true?

(A) There is no automation with feedback control of the quality of the product.

(B) Computers are reliable in any supervision of industrial installations.

(C) The essential features for banks are the recording and sorting of information.

(D) Automation will undoubtedly eliminate numerous tedious jobs.

Questions 21—25

The city water pipes in Rome were usually of baked clay or lead; copper was sometimes used and also hollowed stone. For the

large supply conduits leading to the city the Romans used covered channels with free water surfaces, rather than pipes. Perhaps this choice was a matter of economics, for apparently they could make lead pipes up to 15 inches in diameter. While pipes can follow the profile of undulating ground, with the pressure increasing in the lower areas, channels cannot. They must slope continuously downwards, because water in channels does not normally flow uphill; and the grade must be flat, from 1 in 60 in small channels to perhaps 1 in 3,000 in large ones,

to keep the water speed down to a few feet per second. Thus the main supply channels or aqueducts had long lengths of flat

grade and where they crossed depressions or valleys they were carried on elevated stone bridges in the form of tiered arches. At the beginning of the Christian era there were over 30 miles

of these raised aqueducts in the 250 miles of channels and tunnels bringing water to Rome. The channels were up to 6 feet

【DF】2011年3月上海中级口译真题及答案

沪江英语绿宝书之 2011年3月上海中级口译考试 听力原文及解析 SECTION 1: LISTENING TEST (45 minutes) Part A: Spot Dictation Directions:In this part of the test, you will hear a passage and read the same passage with blanks in it. Fill in each of the blanks with the word or words you have heard on the tape. Write your answer in the corresponding space in your ANSWER BOOKLET. Remember you will hear the passage ONLY ONCE. My topic for today?s lecture is communication, culture and work. When most people use the word culture, they think of people from different national backgrounds. National cultures certainly do exist and they play an important role in shaping the way people communicate, but there are other dimensions of culture too. Within a nation, regional differences can exert a powerful influence on communication. New Yorkers and Alaskans may find one another?s styles of behaving so different that they might as well be from different countries. Race and ethnicity can also shape behavior. So can age. The customs, values and attitudes of a twenty-year-old girl may vary radically from those of her parents who were raised in the 1960s or her grandparents who lived through the Great Depression and World War Ⅱ. Still, other differences can create distinctive cultures. Gender, sexual orientation, physical disabilities, religion and socio-economic background are just a few. All of these factors lead to a definition of culture as a set of values, beliefs, norms, customs, rules and codes that lead people to define themselves as a distinct group, giving them a sense of commonality. It?s important to realize that culture is learned, not innate.A Korean-born infant adopted soon after her birth by American parents and raised in the United States will think and act differently than his or her cousins who grew up in Seoul. An African American who grew up in the inner city will view the world differently than he or she would if raised in the suburbs or in a country like France where African heritage has different significance than it does in the United States. The norms and values we learn as part of our cultural conditioning shape the way we view the world and the way we interact with one another. In short, culture has such an overwhelming influence on communication that famous anthropologist Edward Hall once remarked, …culture is communication and communication is culture.?

中级口译笔试历年真题听力文字稿最完整版(97-08)

历年上海中级口译听力部分录音文稿（97.3 － 08.9） 97．3 SECTION 1：LISTENING TEST Part A: Spot Dictation The development of the Space Shuttle has dramatically reduced the cost of sending loads into space. The Shuttle takes off from Earth like a rocket, and lands again like a huge aircraft. It can transport not only its own crew, but also passengers, and has a huge cargo-hold which is capable of carrying large satellites or a space laboratory. Before the Space Shuttle was created, it was necessary to plan trips into space several years in advance. However, for the rest of the century it should be possible to make space flights every week or so. Any scientist or engineer needing to travel into orbit will simply take the next Shuttle flight, stay as long as necessary, and then return at his or her convenience. It is difficult to imagine the immense opportunities created by the Shuttle. One of the great advantages of having a reusable space vehicle is that it can take one load after another into orbit. Very large space stations could not be launched in their complete form directly from Earth, but they could be built piece by piece in space. The Space Shuttle is likely to be used as a general ―workhorse‖ for the rest of this century, and the building of such stations in orbit should become commonplace. Once these huge orbiting space stations are completed, they are likely to become the platforms from which hundreds of robot space ships could be launched cheaply and easily to explore the solar system and to start mining operations on the Moon. The technology needed for this is already developed and available. And because of commercial and military pressures to develop space technology, it is likely that governments will be increasingly willing to start extensive programs of space engineering, exploration and research.

Shall every citizen be given the same amount of shopping vouchers or should the vouchers be limited to the lower-income people only? 口译题 Part A Directions:In this part of the test, you will hear 2 passages in English. After you heard each paragraph, interpret it into Chinese. Start interpreting at the signal…and stop it at the signal…You may take notes while you are listening. Remember you will hear the passages ONLY ONCE. Now let’s begin Part A with the first passage. Passage 1 As for us Americans, you may think that we give too much importance to individualism and personal gains, so much so that it might sacrifice collective benefits, and even bring harm to the harmony of the society.// Yes, but you don’t have to be worried. American work ethic is more individual-oriented. We often value the results and accomplishments of work more than its process.// If I am not mistaken, the traditional Chinese work ethic is based on Confucianism, which stresses the benefit of communal harmony rather than individual freedom.// It’s really very hard to say which is better because if the cultural differences. With the economic globalization, cultural exchanges have become more and more extensive and Americans and Chinese will know and understand each other better. 至于我们美国人，你们会感到我们太看重个人主义，太看重个人利益，这样可能会牺牲集体的利益，甚至会损害社会的和谐。// 是的，但你们不必担忧。我们美国人的工作理念更强调个人主义。我们一般重视的是结果和成就，而不是过程。// 如果我没理解错的话，中国传统的够工作理念是以儒家学说为基础的，这种思想强调整体和谐高于个体自由。// 由于文化差异的存在，真的很难说哪种理念更好。随着经济全球化，文化交流也随之变得越来越广泛，美国人民和中国人民将会更加互相了解和理解。

Experience is the great teacher. A student needs to be well versed in theory.

上海中级口译考试全攻略(笔试+口试)

上海中级口译考试全攻略（笔试+口试）两周前风尘仆仆地考完中级口译，常有人问我考得怎么样。我的答复总是：美女很多+非常紧张。 在参加考试之前，我常听到两种说法：中级口译太简单了，根本是没用的证，不如去考高口；中级口译太难了，只有高手才能拿到证。这两种说法都没错，对不同英语程度的人来说，中级口译的地位也不尽相同。我当初想到考中级口译并不是为了那一纸证书，因为我对于口译兴趣很小。想到报名完全是为了提高听力。上海交大去年做的一项调查显示，65%的同学认为经过口译训练，听力水平得到了大幅提高。当时我在《外国语》上看到这篇论文，立刻想到通过中级口译提高我可怜的听力。复习之后我还发现，口译对拓宽词汇量尤其是生活词汇作用巨大。 下面我就来谈谈怎么准备中级口译。 首先你需要买中级口译的教材，一共五本《中级听力教程》《中级阅读教程》《中级口语教程》《中级翻译教程》《中级口译教程》，但是，这五本中只需要买三本，那就是《中级翻译教程（第三版）》，《中级听力教程(第3版)》，《中级口译教程(第3版)》，另外两本千万别买，和考试根本没关系，除了这三本，我还推荐买《中级口译真题解析》，《中高级口译口试备考精要(附MP3)--新东方大愚英语学习丛书》，《英语口译资格考试分类词汇精编》。 书买好了，就可以开始准备了。 在准备之前，先确定打算何时考中级口译。中级口译一年两次，一次在3月笔试（同年5月初口试），另一次在9月（同年11月初口试），笔试部分考点较多，可以去上海中级口译官网查找，在哪个城市报名就在哪个城市考笔试，但是你也可以网上报名，网上报名必须在上海考试。注意报名时间：9月的考试在6月报名，3月的考试在12月报名，一定要随时关注官网的通知。 中级口译的笔试满分250分，149.5分以上通过笔试。一旦通过笔试，你就获得了接下来四次参加口试的机会（即两年有效期），我推荐在9月参加笔试，因为暑假时间较多，而寒假有春节的干扰，复习不充分，很多人都会放弃3月的考试。 下面我简要介绍一下中级口译的考试内容及复习方法。 笔试部分共三部分，即听力、阅读和笔译。 听力占90分，包含听写填空，段对话及长对话，听译。 听写填空，英文叫spot dictitation, 给400词左右的文章，抠去20个空，每个空需要填进去
