问答题As we listen today to the arguments about bilingual education, we ought to think ourselves back into the shoes of the Saxon peasant. The new ruling class had built a cultural barrier against him by building their French against his own language. There must have been a great deal of cultural humiliation felt by the English when they revolted under Saxon leaders like Hereward the Wake. "The King"s English"—if the term had existed then—had become French. And here in American now, 900 years later, we are still the heirs to it.

问答题A few years ago, the rich world's worry about economic interaction with developing countries was that the poor could not profit from it. So unbalanced were the terms of exchange between the North's mighty industries and the South's weakling sweatshops that trade between the two could be nothing more than exploitation of the one by the other; far from helping the poor countries, global integration would actually deepen their poverty. This fear has now given way to a pessimism that is equal and opposite—namely, that trade with the developing world will impoverish today's rich countries. This new fear is more dangerous than the old one. The earlier scare tacitly affirmed that the industrial countries would suffer if they cut their links with the third world. Starting from there, campaigning in the North to restrict trade with developing countries was going to be an uphill struggle. Those who oppose deeper economic integration now have a better platform. Vital interests oblige the rich countries to protect their industries from the new competition. Unlike its predecessor, this idea may sell. The new fear, like the old one, expresses the conviction that growth in one part of the world must somehow come at the expense of another. This is a deeply rooted prejudice, and plainly wrong. Very nearly all of the world is more prosperous now than it was 30 years ago. Growth has been a story of mutual advance. Lending useful support to this first error is a second—the idea that there is only so much work to go round. If new technologies make some jobs obsolete, or if an increase in the supply of cheap imports makes other jobs uneconomic, the result must be a permanent rise in unemployment. Again, on a moment's reflection, this is wrong. At the core of both errors is blindness to the adaptive power of a market economy.

问答题For most of us, work is the central, domination fact of life. We spend more than half our conscious hours at work, preparing for work, traveling to and from work. What we do there largely determines our standard of living and to a considerable extent the status we are accorded by our follow citizens as well. 1 It is sometimes said that because leisure has become more important the indignities and injustices of work can be pushed into a comer, that because most work is pretty intolerable, the people who do it should compensate for its boredoms, frustrations and humiliations by concentrating their hopes on the other parts of their lives. I reject that as a counsel of despair. For the foreseeable future the material and psychological rewards which work can provide, and the condition in which work is done, will continue to play a vital part in determining the satisfaction that life can offer. 2 Yet only a small minority can control the pace at which they work or the conditions in which their work is done; only for a small minority does work offer scope for creativity, imagination or initiative. Inequality at work, and in work is still one of the cruelest and most glaring forms of inequality in our society, like the one between managers and the rest. For most managers, work is an opportunity and a challenge. Their jobs engage their interest and allow them to develop their abilities. By contrast, for most manual workers, and for a growing number of white-collar workers, work is a boring, monotonous, even painful experience. 3 They spend all their working lives in conditions which would be regarded as intolerable—for themselves—by those who take the decisions which let such conditions continue. The majority have little control over their work: it provides them with no opportunity for personal development. Often production is so designed that workers are simply part of the technology. In offices, many jobs are so routine that workers justifiably feel themselves to be mere cogs in the bureaucratic machine. 4 As a direct consequence of their work experience, many workers feel alienated from their work and their firm, whether it is in public or in private ownership. Rising educational standards feed rising expectations, yet the amount of control which the worker has over his own work situation does not rise accordingly. 5 In many cases his control has been reduced. Symptoms of protest increase— rising sickness and absenteeism, high mover of employees, restrictions on output, and strikes, both unofficial and official. There is not much escape out and upwards. As management becomes more professional—in itself a good thing—the opportunity for promotion from the shop floor becomes less. The only escape is to another equally frustrating manual job: the only compensation is found not in the job but outside it, if there is a rising standard of living.

问答题Exaggeration is an intoxication of words. Language temporarily loses its self-con- trol. In events of world-class exaggeration, the tongue likes to disconnect itself from the past and race off obviously astride any passing enthusiasm. Most excesses do not display the exaggerator's art in it's best light: they are merely blurbs and boasts. (46)In more complex usage, exaggeration does dynamic and suggestive work: it can be used to frighten or threaten, to reassure (oneself or others), to glorify, and, above all, to relieve the tedium of life to entertain. Exaggeration is one of the methods of all myth--from Olympian deities to giants like Paul Bunyan and John Henry, to mythic historical figures--Mao, say, or George Patton. (47)A child exaggerates his parents' powers to the point of myth; heroes and caricatures, of course, is based on the artists method of exaggerating one feature in proportion to the others. (48)The great difficulty with all exaggerations is that while most of the audience may understand that excess and ornament are in the air, and may automatically do a mental calculation discounting the rhetoric, the fact is that different auditors discount at different rates. It is often difficult to know just how much exaggeration is in- volved, and how much truth, ff Iranians pumping their fists in the air describe the U. S. the "Great Satan," how much of that is homicidal hostility, how much is merely Persian literary style? In simplest definition, exaggeration is a form of lying. Is it therefore bad, an instrument of untruth? It depends. Sometimes the artful exaggeration is a way of evoking, of discovering, an essential truth lying below the prosaic surface of things. (49)The very idea of exaggeration supposes some discoverable, objective reality in advance, so the task of the human eye and scientific intelligence, in this classic view, would be to describe that reality as dispassionately and accurately as possible. The world has its being outside the fanciful brain of the exaggerator, a romantic whose business is to distort reality. (50)Still, in the late 20th century, where reality is not stable, where it is instead discontinuous, mon- strously surprising, then it is hard to know what is an overstatement and what is not The Holocaust, for example, was an event far beyond the vocabularies of exaggeration. Nevertheless, distinctions must be made; there are times when exaggerations are highly useful; there are times when they may be fatal.

问答题Oh Carrie, Carrie! Oh, blind strivings of the human heart! Onward, onward, it saith, and where beauty leads, there it follows. Whether it be the tinkle of a lone sheep bell o"er some quiet landscape, or the glimmer of beauty in sylvan places, or the show of soul in some passing eye, the heart knows and makes answer, following. It is when the feet weary and hope seems vain that the heartaches and the longings arise. Know, then, that for you is neither surfeit nor content. In your rocking-chair, by your widow dreaming, shall you long, along. In your rocking-chair, by your window, shall you dream such happiness as you may never feel.

问答题自核武器出现以来，人类一直生活在战争威胁的巨大阴影之下。全面禁止和彻底销毁核武器，实现无核武器世界，是一切热爱和平人们的共同夙愿，也是中国一贯倡导并不懈追求的目标。 在20世纪60年代初，中国政府就郑重发表声明，倡议召开世界各国首脑会议，讨论全面禁止和彻底销毁核武器问题。作为核武器国家，中国从不回避自己在核裁军方面的责任。 中国发展有限的核力量，完全是为了自卫。中国始终恪守在任何时候和任何情况下都不首先使用核武器，无条件不对无核武器国家和无核武器区使用或威胁使用核武器的承诺，是唯一做出上述承诺的核武器国家。中国这一政策今后也不会改变。

问答题The smooth landing of shuttle(航天飞机)Discovery ended a flight that was successful in almost every respect but one: the dislodging of a big chunk of foam, like the one that doomed the Columbia. This flight was supposed to vault the shuttle fleet back into space after a prolonged grounding for repairs. But given the repeat of the very problem that two years of retooling was supposed to resolve, the verdict is necessarily mixed.(61) Once again, the space agency has been forced to put off the flight until it can find a solution to the problem, and no one seems willing to guess how that may take. The Discovery astronauts performed superbly during their two-week mission, and the shuttle looked better than ever in some respects.(62) Space officials were justifiably happy that so much had gone well, despite daily worries over possible risks. The flight clearly achieved its prime objectives. The astronauts transferred tons of cargo to the international space station, which has been limping along overhead with a reduced crew and limited supplies carried up on smaller Russian spacecraft.(63) They replaced a broken device, repaired another and carted away a load of rubbish that had been left on the station, showing the shuttle can bring full loads back down from space. This was the most scrutinized shuttle flight ever, with the vehicle undergoing close inspection while still in orbit.(64) New sensing and photographic equipment to look for potentially dangerous damage to the sensitive external skin proved valuable. A new back flip maneuver allowed station astronauts to photograph the shuttle"s underbelly, and an extra-long robotic arm enabled astronauts to see parts of the shuttle that were previously out of sight. (65) The flood of images and the openness in discussing its uncertainties about potential hazards sometimes, made it appear that the shuttle was about to fall apart. In the end the damage was clearly tolerable. A much-touted spacewalk to repair the shuttle"s skin the first of its kind moved an astronaut close enough to pluck out some protruding material with his hand Preliminary evidence indicates that Discovery has far fewer nicks and gouges than shuttles on previous flights, perhaps showing that improvements to reduce the shedding of debris from the external fuel tank have had some success.

问答题In this part there is an essay in Chinese, Read it carefully and then write a summary of 200 words in English on the ANSWER SHEET. Make sure that your summary covers the major points of the essay. 吃出健康 健康自古以来就是人们追求的美好目标。近年世界卫生组织对影响人类健康的众多因素进行评估，结果表明：遗传因素对身体健康的影响居于首位为15％；膳食营养对人体健康的影响仅次于遗传因素为13％；然后是医疗条件因素，为8％。因此不难看出膳食营养对人体健康是多么重要，在今天人们的生活水平显著提高，绝大多数人衣温食饱，营养不良状况有了很大改善，但这不代表人吃的健康了，由于大多数人的饮食结构不合理，营养供给不平衡，所以维持不了健康。 为了维持身体健康就必须把不同的食物搭配起来食用，现代营养学把食物分成两大类，一类主要是供给人体热能，我们叫主食，另一类是副食：如豆制品和蔬菜等，主食种类很多它们所含氨基酸，维生素、无机盐的种类和数量又互不相同，故不能只用一种粮食作为主食，应做到粗细粮合理搭配，副食中的肉类、蛋类、奶类、鱼类、海产类、豆类和蔬菜等，都能提供丰富的蛋白质和人体必需的脂肪酸、磷酸、维生素、概、磷、镁、碘等重要营养素，对人体健康起着非常重要的作用，饮食的种类多种多样，富含营养成分各不相同，只有做到各种食物合理搭配，才能使人体得到不同的营养，以满足生命和活动的需要。 膳食搭配的同时要注意季节引起食欲的变化，像夏季酷热多雨，人们常常食欲降低，消化力也减弱，大多数人厌食肥肉和油腻食物，所以要注意食物的色香味，尽力提高食欲，使身体能够得到全面足够的营养。 合理搭配固然重要，但也应饮食有节，要注意饮食的量和用食时间，一是饮食要适量，就是说人们吃东西不要太多也不要太少，要恰到好吃，饥饱适中，过饱不利于健康，但吃太少也有损于健康。二是饮食应定时，一日三餐，食知有时，脾胃适应了这种饮食规律，到时候便会做好消化食物的准备，同时烹调合理使食品色香味俱全，不仅增加食欲，而且有益健康。 当然健康饮食对于不同职业来说也是不相同的，例如，学校的老师和学生都是脑力劳动者，用脑较多，由于人脑的主要成分为卵磷脂。脑疲劳会损失卵磷脂，而深海鱼和蛋黄富含卵磷脂。因此，建议每天可吃1．2个鸡蛋补充营养，每周吃一次海鱼。此外，也应多补充含蛋白质、糖、钙、铁、锌、维生素丰富的食物。如，禽肉、牛奶、拼过、豆制品等。 所以，只有饮食从各方面做好了，才能将健康进行到底。
