51. Directions：

Write a letter to your university library, making suggestions for improving its service.

You should write about 100 words on ANSWER SHEET 2.

Do not sign your own name at the end of the letter. Use “Li Ming” instead.

Do not write the address. （10 points）

正确答案：

January 20th, 2007

Dear Sir or Madam,

I’m a student in the university and a loyal reader of this library. I’m writing to tell some of my ideas, which I hope to be helpful for you.

I notice that many magazines in our library are out of date. It would be beneficial to us students if they could be updated in time. And I suggest introducing some new journals so as to bring new fresh air to the library. Furthermore, since we have a huge number of books, it is not easy to find the right one easily. However, if we can introduce some new searching means, such as implementing new information management system that would be useful.

Thank you for taking time reading this letter and I’m looking forward to seeing some new changes soon.

Sincerely Yours,

Li Ming

(ii) the strategy of the business regarding its treasury policies. (3 marks)

(Marks will be awarded in part (b) for the identification and discussion of relevant points and for the style. of the

report.)

正确答案：
(ii) Strategy of the business regarding its treasury policies
Treasury policies are reviewed regularly by the Board. It is group policy to account for all financial instruments as cash
flow hedges. As a result, changes in the fair values of financial instruments are deferred in reserves to the extent the
hedge is effective and released to profit or loss in the time periods in which the hedged item impacts profit or loss.
The Group contracts fixed rate currency swaps and issues floating to fixed rate interest rate swaps to meet the objective
of protecting borrowing costs. The cash flow effects of the interest rate swaps match the cash flows on the underlying
instruments so that there is no net cash flow effect from movements in market interest rates. If the interest rate swaps
had not been transacted there could have been an increase in the annual net interest payable to the Group. The strategy
of the group is to minimise the exposure to interest rate fluctuations.

(ii) Identify the points that must be confirmed and any action necessary in order for capital treatment to

apply to the transaction. (4 marks)

正确答案：
(ii) Ensuring capital treatment
For the capital treatment to apply, a number of conditions need to be satisfied such that the following points need to be
confirmed.
– The business of Acrux Ltd consists wholly or mainly of the carrying on of a trade as opposed to the making of
investments.
– Spica is UK resident and ordinarily resident despite living in both the UK and Solaris.
– The transaction is being carried out for the purpose of the company’s trade and is not part of a scheme intended
to avoid tax. This is likely to be the case as HMRC accept that a management disagreement over the running of
the company has an adverse effect on the running of the business.
In addition, Spica must have owned the shares for at least five years so the transaction must not take place until
1 October 2008.

This passage is intended to __________.

A． discuss part-time jobs for students in general

B． encourage students to take up part-time jobs

C． show the benefits of part-time jobs to students' studies

D． praise boys and girls who work part time

正确答案：A
文章主旨题。文章分别讨论了在男生和女生中流行的兼职工作，因此A项正确，其余各项均与文章主题无关。
参考译文：
打零工在美国大学生中非常盛行，但是其实许多学生高中起就开始打工了。除了在快餐店打工，另一个在青少年中很流行的工作是临时保姆。这项工作尤其适合女孩，一个可靠、负责和成熟的临时保姆可以挣到不少钱。
而这项工作不一定是份轻松的活儿，它需要社交技巧和综合能力。一个好的临时保姆要会换尿布，还得赢得她照看的孩子的尊重，她得哄孩子上床，即使孩子睡着了也不能掉以轻心。此外，她得知道如何运用常识处理突发状况并且随时保持冷静。她还得在需要协助的情况下知道医院和警方的紧急联系方式。
一旦孩子睡着了，临时保姆就可以看电视或者听音牙。如果真的在乎学业，还可以将这些时间用于做功课。但是不能煲电话粥，因为家长在这期间可能会与她联系。
另一个在男孩中流行的工作是送报纸，这项工作同样需要成熟、稳重与责任感。它可以为高中生带来不错的收入。从事这项工作必须很早起床并且风雨无阻地将报纸送到每家每户，没有假日，也没有例外。

正确答案：
、参考范文

Reading Books in Printed Form. or on Computer

The popularization of computer has made it possible to read books on computer. With it, there is much discussion about whether e-books will replace traditional print-on-paper books.

Some people say they like only e-books, which are quicker and more convenient to get and use. To get a needed book, one has to spend much time or money in searching for or buying it in bookstores, but one can just type in the title, author or other related information of the book to find it in minutes on internet. Sometimes one can even read the full content of a digitized book free of charge or instantly discuss about a book in an online forum. Moreover, a lot of information of books can be stored in a small compact disc, which is easy to take.

Other people, however, think printed books are still necessary. In the first place, too much time in front of the computer can cause eyestrain or increase radiation risks. Second, a printed book can be read at your convenience. One can read in bed before sleep or during a boring journey, without fussing with a computer.

In sum, since e-books and printed books have their respective advantages and can complement each other, I would like to combine the two ways to meet different needs. For quick reference, a digitized book will probably be useful. To appreciate a poem or a novel, I prefer the traditional way of reading on printed books.

Part B

Directions:

In your essay, you should

1) describe the drawing briefly,

2) explain its intended meaning, and then

3) give your comments.

You should write neatly on ANSHWER SHEET 2. (20 points)

正确答案：
本题漫画中，一个大圈被分成若干格，每个格里都有一个人在上网。人们通过网络联系起来，形成一张如同蜘蛛网的错综复杂的关系网。再由题目《网络的“近”与“远”》，可以想到漫画含义涉及网络的两个方面，一方面，网络拉近了人们之间的距离，足不出户便可进行交流;但另一方面，由于人们越来越依赖网络，面对面交流的机会越来越少了。
　　围绕这一主题，根据提纲要求，本文结构设计如下：
　　根据提纲中的信息1) describe the drawing briefly 第一段对漫画进行简单描述;
　　根据提纲中的信息2) explain its intended meaning 第二段揭示漫画的含义，从正反两方面论述，一方面，网络为人们提供了便利的条件，使人们的交流更加便捷和迅速;另一方面，人们的现实交流越来越少了，感情似乎也疏远了。
　　根据提纲中的信息3) give your comments 第三段表明作者的看法，即网络使社会成员的联系更加紧密，但在一定程度上也疏远了人们之间的关系。
　　SAMPLE
　　The above picture gives a vivid description of a huge spider web which symbolizes Internet. There’s no doubt that Internet, an entirely new way of communication, is becoming so popular nowadays that it’s difficult to imagine modern life without it. It has revolutionized the way of people’s living and thinking, and has exerted a profound effect on our daily life.
　　Definitely, the symbolic meaning of the picture subtly conveyed should be taken into deep consideration. First of all, with the Internet, it is convenient and fast for people to have access to a variety of information and what they need to do is just to press key buttons. What’s more, the great utility of the Internet allow people within a company, across a nation or even around the world to work together. Finally, we can do almost everything via Internet. Specifically, we can conduct E-business, advertise our products, book an air ticket, buy and sell stocks, even hunt a new job through clicking the mouse. Nevertheless, it is a two-edged sword as well and has its own negative effects. Some people tend to spend hours on Internet for the sake of relaxation and develop addictions. As a result, the public have an emotional distance sometimes and thus few face-to-face communications in reality due to Internet addiction without self-restriction.
From what have been discussed above, it is clear that with a personal computer and modem, any individual can call up information about almost anything from almost anywhere and almost anytime on the web. All in all, Internet, an indispensable part in modern life, has the power to connect people and, yet, to some extent, alienate people in reality.

考题 What should you think about in trying to find your career? You are probably better at some school subjects than others. These may show strengths that you can use in your work. A boy who is good at mathematics can use that in an engineering career. A girl who spells well and likes English may be good at office work. So it is important to know the subjects you do well in at school. On the other hand, you may not have any specially strong or weak subjects but your records show a general satisfactory standard. Although not all subjects can be used directly in a job, they may have indirect value. A knowledge of history is not required for most jobs but if history is one of your good subjects you will have learned to remember facts and details. This is an ability that can be useful in many jobs. Your school may have taught you skills, such as typing or technical drawing, which you can use in your work. You may be good at metal work or cookery and look for a job where you can improve these skills. If you have had a part-time job on Saturdays or in the summer, think what you gained from it. If nothing else, you may have learned how to get to work on time, to follow instructions and to get on with older workers. You may have learned to give correct change in a shop, for example. Just as important, you may become interested in a particular industry or career you see from the inside in a part-time job. Facing your weak points is also part of knowing yourself. You may be all thumbs when you handle tools; perhaps you are a poor speller or cannot add up a column of figures. It is bitter to face any weaknesses than to pretend they do not exist. Your school record, for instance, may not be too good, yet it is an important part of your background. You should not be apologetic about it but instead recognize that you will have a chance of a fresh start at work. The writer thinks that for a student 'to have a part-time job is probablyA.a waste of time that could have been spent on study B.useful for his future work C.a good way to earn extra money D.a good way to find out his weak points答案：B解析：本文的第三段说的是兼职工作能教给人哪些素质，以及它能让人认识到自己对什么职业感兴趣。因此B项最合适。
