填空题Turn the following passage into Chinese．(山东师范大学2008研，考试科目：基础英语)I believe we are now moving into a period similar to that after the last war where there is a general acceptance of the need for a mixed economy, that is, a capitalist economy combined with a substantial degree of government intervention. The key will be demand management and, in the longer term, dealing with the social consequences of a market economy. As the economies in the west become more stable, I think non-economic, non-materialistic issues such as the environment will come more to the political fore. And there may well be growing pressure for redistribution of wealth on a global scale.I don"t expect to see another economic crisis of the scale of that in the 1970s for at least another fifteen years. When it does eventually come, it will probably be from some totally unexpected direction. Unemployment will continue to decline, and when people no longer fear the loss of their jobs, so a degree of complacency creeps in and their values change.It may well be exactly that process which, ironically, causes the next economic crisis, but it"s a long way off yet!

填空题汉译英。(华东理工大学2007研，考试科目：翻译实践) 一天，洋教师出题，考查学生们用洋文作文的水准，题目极简单，随便议论议论校园内的一事一物，褒贬皆可。中国学生很灵，一挥而就，洋教师阅后，评出了最佳作文一篇，学生们听后大为不解，这种通篇说谎的文章怎么能被评为“最佳”?原来这篇作文是写学校食堂。写作文的学生来自郊区农村，人很老实，胆子又小，生怕得罪校方，妨碍将来毕业时的分数、评语、分配工作等等，便不顾真假，胡编乱造，竭力美化，唱赞歌，使得一些学生看后愤愤然。可是……洋教师明知学校食堂糟糕透顶的状况，为什么偏要选这篇作文?有人直问洋教师。

填空题A. improved B. accidentally C. until Phrases: A. to keep printing copies 1 they get it B. being 2 deleted from a computer C. as well as 3 computer graphics Twenty years ago when the personal computer hit the business world, experts predicted the advent of the paperless office. But time has proved them wrong. Offices have more paper than ever. People can easily print out a personal copy of a document for anyone who needs to see it. Programs such as spelling and grammar checkers, 4 , have led people to expect perfection in their documents, and 5 . The simple truth is that most people simply prefer paper. Scientific studies have shown that paper copies are easier for people to read and to edit than is text on a screen. And many people are still nervous about documents 6 —if not through their own fault, through a computer system failure or a power outage. In short, although office paper may be significantly reduced, the paperless office is unlikely to become a reality.

填空题A. Benefiting from an earlier modelB. Important operative conditionsC. Examining the public confusionD. How it's all linked upE. Finding a suitable locationF. Comparing wind speeds in Australian citiesG. Matching operational requirements with considerations of appearance Harvest time in Esperance is constant. As long as the wind blows — which is pretty much all the time- nine identical synchronized wind turbines reap the benefits of the dependable winds that gust up around the southern coastline of Western Australia. These sleek, white, robot-like wind turbines loom up on the horizon forming part of Australia's first commercial wind farm. They're not only functional machines that help provide electricity for this secluded coastal town, but increasingly, they're also drawcards for curious tourists and scientists alike. Because of its isolation, Esperance is not linked to Western Power's grid which supplies electricity from gas-, coal- and oil-fired power stations to the widespread population of Western Australia. Before the wind turbines went in, Esperance's entire electricity needs were met by the diesel power station in town. 41. ______ The $5.8 million Ten Mile. Lagoon project is not Esperance's first wind farm. The success of a smaller, experimental wind farm, at a spot called Salmon Beach, encouraged the state's power utility to take Esperance wind seriously. Today, the wind turbines at Ten Mile Lagoon work in conjunction with the diesel power station, significantly reducing the amount of the town's electricity generated by expensive diesel power. 42. ______ The wind farm is connected to the power station by a 33-kilovolt powerline, and a radio link between the two, allows operators to monitor and control each wind turbine. The nine 225-kilowatt Vestas wind turbines produce a total generating capacity of two megawatts and provide around 12 percent of the energy requirements of Esperance and its surrounding districts. 43. ______ The power produced by a wind turbine depends on the size and efficiency of the machine and, of course, on the energy in the wind. The energy in the wind available to the wind turbines is proportional to wind speed cubed. Thus, the greater the wind speed, the greater the output of the turbine. In order to achieve optimum wind speeds, the right location is imperative. "You have to accept the nature of the beast," Mr. Rosser, Western Power's physicist said. "As surface dwellers our perceptions of wind speeds are bad. As you go higher, wind speed increases significantly." 44. ______ The most favorable wind sites are on gently sloping hills, away from obstructions like trees and buildings and where the prevailing winds are not blocked. Computer modeling was used to select the best site for Esperance's wind farm. Scientists were concerned not only with efficiency, but also with protecting the coastal health environment which is rich in plant life and home to tiny pygmy and honey-possums, and a host of bird species. In addition, the wind farm is adjacent to Esperance's popular scenic tourist drive. 45. ______ Strict erosion controls have been implemented and access to the wind farm is limited to selected viewing areas. The wind turbine towers are painted white and devoid of corporate logos or signage. According to Mr. Rosser there is something of a worldwide backlash against wind farms with regard to their visual impact. "But because wind turbines perform best in the most exposed positions, they will always be visible. There is a very real need to balance environmental and technical requirements. I think the Ten Mile Lagoon Wind Farm sets the standards for environmentally friendly developments." In fact, the project has become something of a tourist attraction in itself. Esperance shire president Ian Mickel said the wind turbines had been well accepted by locals. "We have watched the wind farm develop with great interest, and now we find visitors to Esperance are equally enthusiastic about it," he said. The aim now is to identify other remote locations where wind turbines will be a feasible means of supplementing existing power stations.
