问答题Television has transformed politics in the United States by changing the way in which information is distributed, by altering political campaigns, and changing citizens' patterns of response to politics. By giving citizen's independent access to the candidates, television dismissed the role of the political party in the selection of the major party candidates. By cantering politics on the person of candidates, television accelerated the citizen's focus on character rather than issues. Television has altered the forms of political communication as well. (47) The messages on which most of us rely are briefer than they once were, the stump speech, a political speech given by travelling politicians and lasting 1.5 to 2 hours, which characterized nineteenth-century political discourse, has given way to the 30 second advertisement and then 10 second "sound bite" in broadcast news. Increasingly the audience for speeches is not that standing in front of the politician but rather the viewing audience who will hear and see a clip of the speech on the news. In these abbreviated forms, much of what consisted the traditional political discourse of earlier ages has been lost. (48) In 15 or 30 seconds, a speaker can't establish the historical context that shaped the issue in question, cannot detail the probable causes of the problem, and cannot examine alternative proposals to argue that one is preferable to others. In clips, politicians assert but do not argue. Because television is an intimate medium, speaking through it required a changed political style that was more conversational, personal, and visual than that of the old-style stump speech. Reliance on television means that increasingly our political world contains memorable pictures rather than memorable words. Schools teach us not analyze words and print. (49) However, in a world in which politics is increasingly visual, informed citizenship requires a new set of skills. Recognizing the power of television's pictures, politicians craft televisual and staged events, called pseudo-events, designed to attract media coverage. (50) Politicians, their speechwriters and their public relations advisers for televised consumption have crafted much of the political activity we see on television news. Sound bites in news and answers to questions in debates increasingly sound like advertisements.

问答题Translate the following passage into Chinese. Write your translation on the ANSWER SHEET.(20 points) Carrara, shut in by the great hills, is a very picturesque town in Italy. Few tourists stay there; and the people are nearly all connected, in one way or another, with the mining of marble. There are also villages among the caves, where the workmen live. It contains a beautiful little Theatre, newly built; and it is an interesting custom there, to form the chorus of laborers in the marble mines, who are self-taught and sing by ear. I heard them in a comic opera, and in an act of "Norma" ; and they performed remarkably well; unlike the common people of Italy generally, who(with some exceptions among the Neapolitans)sing terribly out of tune, and have very disagreeable singing voices.

问答题If you want to stay young, sit down and have a good think. This is the research finding of a team of Japanese doctors, who say that most of our brains are not getting enough exercise and as a result, we are aging unnecessarily soon. Professor Taiju Matsuzawa wanted to find out why otherwise healthy farmers in northern Japan appeared to be losing their ability to think and reason at a relatively early age, and how the process of aging could be slowed down. With a team of colleagues at Tokyo National University, he set about measuring brain volumes of a thousand people of different ages and varying occupations. Computer technology enabled the researchers to obtain precise measurements of the volumes of the front and side sections of the brain, which relate to intellect and emotion, and determine the human character. The rear section of the brain, which controls functions like eating and breathing, does not contract with age, and one can continue living without intellectual or emotional faculties. Contraction of front and side parts -- as cells die off -- was observed in some subjects in their thirties, but it was still not evident in some sixty-and seventy-year-olds. Matsuzawa concluded from his tests that there is a simple remedy to the contraction normally associated with age -- using the head. The findings show in general terms that contraction of the brain begins sooner in people in the country than in the towns. Those least at risk, says Matsuzawa , are lawyers, followed by university professors and doctors. White collar workers doing routine work in government offices are, however, as likely to have shrinking brains as the farm worker, bus driver and shop assistant. Matsuzawa's findings show that thinking can prevent the brain from shrinking. Blood must circulate properly in the head to supply the fresh oxygen the brain cells need. "The best way to maintain good blood circulation is through using the brain." he says. "Think hard and engage in conversation. Don't rely on pocket calculators./1.What did the team of doctors want to find out?

问答题Thinking about nuclear terrorism. The realistic threats settle into two broad categories. 46)The less likely but far more ruinous is an actual nuclear explosion, a great hole blown in the heart of New York or Washington, followed by a toxic fog of radiation. This could be produced by a black-market nuclear warhead procured from an existing arsenal(军工厂), which might be in Russia, Pakistan or other countries or areas. Or the explosive could be a homemade device, lower in yield than a factory nuke (核武器)but still creating great suffering. 47) The second category is a radiological attack, contaminating a public place with radioactive material by packing it with conventional explosives in a "dirty bomb" by dispersing it into the air or water or by destroying a nuclear facility. By comparison with the task of creating nuclear fission, some of these schemes would be almost childishly simple, although the consequences would be less horrifying. Nothing is really new about these perils. The means to inflict nuclear harm on America have been available to rascals for a long time. Serious studies of the threat of nuclear terror dated back to the 1970's. 48) American programs to keep Russian nuclear ingredients from falling into murderous hands were hatched soon after the Soviet Union disintegrated a decade ago. When terrorists get around to trying their first nuclear assault, as you can be sure they will, there will be plenty of people entitled to say I told you so. 49) All Sept. 11 did was to turn a theoretical possibility into a felt danger All it did was to supply a credible east of characters who hate us so much that they would thrill to the prospect of actually doing it-and, most important in rethinking the probabilities, would be happy to die in the effort. All it did was to give our nightmares legs. And of the many nightmares animated by the attacks, this is the one with pride of place in our experience and literature—and, we know from his own lips, in Osama bin Laden's (奥萨马·本·拉登)aspirations. In February, Tom Ridge, the Bush administration's homeland security chief, visited The Times for a conversation, and at the end someone asked, given all the things he had to worry about--hijacked airliners, anthrax (炭疽热)in the mail, smallpox, germs in crop-dusters--what did he worry about most? He cupped his hands prayerfully and pressed his fingertips to his lips. "Nuclear," he said simply. My assignment here was to stare at that fear and the inventory of the possibilities. How afraid should we be, and what of, exactly? I'll tell you at the outset, this was not one of those exercises in which weighing the fears and assigning them probabilities laid them to rest. I'm not evacuating Manhattan, but neither am I sleeping quite as soundly. 50) As I was writing this one Saturday in April, the floor began to rumble and my desk lamp shook precariously(不稳定的,充满危险的). Although I grew up on the San Andreas Fault, the fact that New York was experiencing an earthquake was only my second thought.
