填空题Translation from English into Chinese．(河海大学2008研，考试科目：基础英语)Philosophy teaches us to feel uncertain about the things that seem to us self-evident. Propaganda, on the other hand, teaches us to accept as self-evident matters about which it would be reasonable to suspend our judgment or to feel doubt. The propagandist must therefore be consistently dogmatic. All his statements are made without qualification.

填空题When travelers lack an awareness of (51) time is regulated in a foreign country, they can expect to feel somewhat disoriented. Since most people (52) time for granted, the effects of values, customs, and social etiquette on the use of time are seldom examined. A culture that values achievement and progress will discourage people (53) "wasting" time. Highly efficient business people from these cultures may feel frustrated in a country (54) work proceeds at a slow pace. In religious societies, customs specify times of the day, week, or year for prayer and religious celebrations. If an individual tries to (55) an appointment during a sacred holiday, he or she could unknowingly offend a religious person. Social etiquette determines appropriate times for visits, meetings, and even phone calls. Arriving two hours late for an (56) may be acceptable in one culture, whereas in (57) , keeping someone (58) fifteen minutes may be considered rude. Promptness is important in American business, academic, and social settings. The (59) of punctuality is taught to young children in school. Tardy slips and the use of bells signal to the child that punctuality and time itself are to be respected. An amusing report of a school child's experience with time (60) in a recent newspaper article: " (61) a child, my mother used to tell me (62) crucial it was to be at school (63) . the first bell rang. Preparation for my 'on-time' appearance began the night before. I was directed to go to bed early so I could wake (64) wide-eyed at 7 a.m. with enough time to get ready. Although I usually managed to watch my share of TV cortoons, I knew that in one hour I had to get dressed, eat breakfast, (65) my teeth, (66) my hair, and be on my way to school or I would be violating an important rule of Mom's, the school's or of the world's. It was hard to tell which." People who keep appointments are (67) dependable. If people are late to job interviews, appointments, or classes, they are often viewed (68) unreliable and irresponsible. In the business world, "time is money" and companies may fine their executives for tardiness to business meetings. Of course, it is not always possible to be punctual.

Keeping a date or a friend waiting beyond ten to twenty minutes is considered rude. On the other (69) , arriving thirty minutes (70) to some parties is acceptable.

填空题 41)__________. But traffic experts say building more roads is a quick-fix solution that will not alleviate the traffic problem in the long run. Soaring land costs, increasing concern over social and environmental disruptions caused by road building, and the likelihood that more roads can only lead to more cars and traffic are powerful factors bearing down on a 1950s-style construction program. 42) __________. Proponents of this advanced technology say electronic detection systems, closed-circuit television, radio communication, ramp metering, variable message singing, and other smart-highway technology can now be used at a reasonable cost to improve communication between drivers and the people who monitor traffic. Pathfinder, a Santa Monica, California-based smart-highway project in which a 14-mile stretch of the Santa Monica Freeway, making up what is called a "smart corridor", is being instrumented with buried loops in the pavement. Closed circuit television cameras survey the flow of traffic, while communications linked to properly equipped automobiles advise motorists of the least congested routes or detours. 43) __________. "Electronics on the highway addresses just one aspect of the Problem: how to regulate traffic more efficiently", explains Michael Rennet, senior researcher at the World watch Institute. "It doesn't deal with the central problem of too many cars for roads that can't be built fast enough. It sends people the wrong message: They start thinking 'Yes, there used to be a traffic congestion problem, but that's been solved now because we have an advanced high-tech system in place. '" Larson agrees and adds, 44) "__________". Other traffic problem-solving options being studied and experimented with include car pooling, rapid mass-transit systems, staggered or flexible work hours, and road pricing, a system whereby motorists pay a certain amount for the time they use a highway. 45) __________.[A] Smart highways are just one of the tools that we will use to deal with our traffic problems. It's not the solution itself, just part of the package. There are different strategies.[B] It seems that we need a new, major thrust to deal with the traffic problems of the next 20 years. There has to be a big change.[C] It's taking advantage of the technology you use in your everyday lives and putting it to work on highways.[D] Traffic statistics paint a gloomy picture. To help solve their traffic woes, some rapidly growing U.S. cities have simply built more roads.[E] The goal of smart-highway technology is to make traffic systems work at optimum efficiency by treating the road and the vehicles traveling on them as an integral transportation system.[F] Smart highways that will allow a driver to program a destination on a dashboard computer, then sit back and enjoy the ride.[G] Not all traffic experts, however, look to smart-highway technology as the ultimate solution to traffic gridlock. Some say the high-tech approach is limited and can only offer temporary solutions to a serious problem.

填空题找遍了化学书，在炭气、氧气以至于氯气之外，你看不到俗气的。这是比任何气体更稀淡、更微茫，超出于五官感觉之上的一种气体，只有在文艺里和社交里才能碰见。文艺里和社交里还有许多旁的气也是化学所不谈的，例如寒酸气、泥土气。不过，这许多气都没有俗气那样难捉摸：因为它们本身虽然是超越感觉的，它们的名字却是藉感觉中的事物来比方着，象征着；每一个比喻或象征都无形中包含一个类比推理(analogy)，所以，顾名思义，你还有线索可求。说到酸气，你立刻联想着山西或镇江的老醋；说起泥土气，你就记忆到夏雨初晴，青草池塘四周围氤氲着的气息。但是俗气呢?不幸得很，“气”已是够空虚的了，“俗”比“气”更抽象! 选自钱钟书《论俗气》

填空题Translate the following passage into Chinese．(郑州大学2007研，考试科目：基础英语)But what did Lincoln believe in his heart? He belonged to no denomination. Some historians consider that his inherited Calvinism was finally consecrated at Gettysburg. Biographer Allen C. Guelzo offers as balanced an analysis as is possible at this distance. Lincoln acknowledged " a Creator of all things, who had neither beginning nor end, " and viewed Jesus Christ as the redeemer of the world. And yet, he could not quite come "the whole way to belief". Acquainted with anguish, given to periods of private depression masked by public confidence, Lincoln would never escape a kind of fatalism. It precluded full acceptance of a personal relationship with a God who directed individual lives. As Guelzo writes, "Lincoln often wished that " I was a more devout man than I am. " "If be lacked the certitude of his mother"s beliefs, or his stepmother"s, nonetheless, he must have been sustained by their example. They provided for him a framework of faith to endure the nation"s greatest trial.

填空题Translate the following into English．(上海外国语大学2008研，考试科目：英汉互译) 千万不要被“忽悠”了 (谨防新时期的“糖衣炮弹”) 去年，美国时任财政部长的汉克?保尔森曾恭维中国说，“中国已经是全球经济领袖之一”。此后，美英两国媒体在这方面做了不少文章。美国《时代》周刊在年初一期杂志的封面上，以显赫的大字宣称：“中国：一个新王朝的开始”。2007年1月，英国伦敦皇家国际问题研究所所长维克托?托马斯意味深长地发表文章，提醒世界注意：《2020年，世界将有中美两个超级大国》，而且要求中国同美国一样，“把责任扩大到整个地球”。5月下旬，美国一些媒体大量报道美国世界意见调查机构最近对十几个国家进行的所谓“世界民意调查”，认为“中国经济将超过美国”，而且说得有鼻子有眼，时间大概就在2020年；并挑逗中国人说，你们怎么“对自己的经济还没有美国人有信心”呢? 尤其值得注意的是，5月中旬，美国中央情报局公布了一份“世界数字”报告，按美国所谓“实际购买力”估算，突出宣传在世界各国国内生产总值方面，中国仅排在美国之后，遥遥领先于第三的日本。报告还“分析”说，如果按2006年一年间美中两国距离缩小近3％的比例算，“中国只需要两年就能超过美国，在2009年内成为世界上实际的第一经济大国”。说得多么有根有据，多么娓娓动听而又发人深思! 所谓中国很快就要赶超美国的论调，实际上是新时期的一颗“糖衣炮弹”，是“中国威胁论”的变种。它一是要引起西方、特别是美国的惊恐，从根本上感到“中国的威胁”和挑战，从而动员“遏制中国的势力”。二是要刺激中国某些人的浮躁情绪和简单的“大国心态”，麻痹忧患意识。这是更阴险的一招，而且更具“魅力”。我们不能“以小人之心，度君子之腹”，但也千万不要被“忽悠”了，不可不学会一点“以君子之心度小人之腹”。
