In recent years, the Chinese auto industry has seen rapid growth, with the demand on private cars rising sharply in Chinese cities since 2002.

By 2009, China has replaced the U.S. to become the world's largest auto market. As an important part of the world car industry, the global auto industry will shift further to China. This brings historical opportunity to China's auto market.

Currently, both the development of China's auto market and the changes in consumer demand for vehicles are ever -increasing. China's auto industry will continue to grow in the next decade. It means there is still huge room for its development. China has an urban population of more than 600million. It also has a huge agricultural vehicle market in the rural areas. Hence, there is no doubt for China's development of auto industry. That is also the reason why the world's auto producers are paying more attention to the Chinese market.

()26. The demand on private cars increased greatly in Chinese cities since 2002.

()27. China has become the world's largest auto market.

()28. China's auto industry tends to decrease in the next decade.

()29. China has an urban population of less than 600 million.

()30. The reason why the world's auto producers are paying more attention to the Chinese market is that China's auto industry developed very quickly.

_________(57)
A:like
B:for
C:at
D:into

答案:A
解析:
consist , compose , comprise都是“构成”的意思。根据上下文内容,这里应该是“被包括”的意思,因此选B。
obscure“无名的”; attractive“吸引人的”; appropriate“恰当的”; evident “明显的”。根据上下文内容,这里应该是“室内设计的重要性就显而易见了”,因此选D。
spend的宾语是time ; require“需求”; settle“定居”; retain“保留”。本句意思是:“当我们意识到花在室内的时间有多少时……”因此选A。
习惯用法,as + adj.lady.+ as possible。本句意思是“我们都希望环境尽可能地吸引人和舒适”。因此选B。
each在这里是形容词,指“每个”。本句意思是“……同时也希望每处地方发挥正常功能”。因此选D。
后面的suddenly提示要用shocked0 amused“觉得好笑的”;interested“感觉有趣的”; frightened“受惊的”。本句意思是“如果卧室内忽然被改装得像个餐厅,你一定感到惊讶”。因此选C。
本题考查固定词组搭配。look like“看上去像……”。look at“看……”; look for“寻找”; look into“检查”。因此选A。
feel right, right此处意为“正常、对劲”。suitable“合适的”;proper“适当的”;correct“正确的”。本句意思是“待在一间像学校一样的办公室里你也会感觉不对劲”。因此选C。
care“关心”,指责任和对他人的情感;concern“关注”;attention“注意力”; intention“意图”。本句意思是“室内设计师最关注的是空间的功能”。因此选B。
circumstance, environment, surroundings都指“环境”;space指“空间”。因止匕选D。
根据上文可知前面均为否定的意思,所以用too, "too few”表示否定。本句意思是:“一家剧院光线差、音响效果不佳,而且出入口都太少……” 因此选A。
根据上下文可知前面只提到a theatre,所以用its。因此只能选B。
全文讲的是interior design室内装修,所以用decoreate。 ornament“装饰”,指添加细节,规模较小;paint“粉刷”;cover“包裹”。本句意思是“……不论它的装修多么华丽都不能发挥功能”。
根据上下文可知,此处意为“作出决定”最恰当。solution“解决办法”;conclusion“结论”;decision“决定”,make decisions“作出决定”,最符合题意;determination“决定”, 但不能与make搭配。本句意思是“设计师必须作同样的决定”。
in addition是固定搭配,表示“另外”。本句意思是“另外,要根据功能选择家具或有特殊设计的家具”。因此选B。

请阅读短文,完成此题。
Many objects in daily use have clearly been influenced by science, but their form and function, their dimensions and appearance, were determined by technologists, artisans, designers, inventors, and engineers-use nonscientific modes of thought. This kind of thinking way is different
from science. Many features and qualities of the objects that a technologist thinks about cannot be reduced to unambiguous verbal descriptions; they are dealt with the mind by a visual, nonverbal process. In the development of Western technology, it has been non-verbal thinking, by and large, that has fixed the outlines and filled in the details of our material surroundings. Pyramids, cathedrals, and rockets exist not because of geometry or thermodynamics, but because they were first a picture in the minds of those who built them.
The creative shaping process of a technologist's mind can be seen in nearly every artifact that exists. For example, in designing a diesel engine, a technologist might impress individual ways of nonverbal thinking on the machine by continually using an intuitive sense of rightness and fitness.
What would be the shape of the combustion chamber? Where should valves be placed? Should it have a long or short piston? Such questions have a range of answers that are supplied by experience, by physical requirements, by limitations of available space, and not least by a sense of form. Some decisions such as wall thickness and pin diameter, may depend on scientific calculations, but the nonscientific component of design remains primary.
Design courses, then, should be an essential element in engineering curriculum. Nonverbal thinking of a central mechanism in engineering design, involves perceptions, the stock-in-trade of the artist, not the scientist. Because perceptive processes are not assumed to entail "hard thinking", nonverbal thought is sometimes seen as a primitive stage in the development of cognitive process and inferior to verbal or mathematical thought. But it is paradoxical that when the staff began the Historic American. Engineering Record wished to have drawing made of machines and isometric views of industrial processes for its historical record of America engineering, the only college students with the requisite abilities were not engineering students, but rather students attending architectural schools.
If courses in design, which in a strongly analytical engineering curriculum provide the background required for practical problem-solving, are not provided, we can expect to encounter silly but costly errors occurring in advanced engineering systems. For example, early models of high-speed railroad cars loaded with sophisticated controls were unable to operate in a snowstorm because a fan sucked snow into the electrical system. Absurd random failures that plague automatic control systems are not merely trivial aberrations: they are a reflection of the chaos that results when design is assumed to be primarily a problem in mathematics.


Which is not the reason that design courses should be an essential element in engineering curriculum?

A.Nonverbal thinking is a central mechanism in engineering design.
B.Design courses can provide solutions to solve practical problems.
C.Science course is not important and should be replaced by design courses.
D.Ignorant of design courses may encounter silly but costly errors.

答案:C
解析:
题干考查的是设计课应该成为工程教学的一门基础课程的原因,可定位至文章最后两段,根据第三段第二句“Nonverbal thinking a central mechanism in engineering design,involves perceptions,the stock.in—trade of the artist,not the scientist.”可知,A项正确,根据第四段第一句“If eourse$in design,which in a strongly analytical engineering curriculum provide the background required for practical problem-solving,are not provided,WC can expect to encounter silly but costly errors occurring in advanced engineering systems.”可知,B、D均正确,C项文中未提到,因此错误。

第6题:

Interviewer-------- Why is English so important?

David------- Well, English is so important primarily because so many people speak it and use it, so it has now become the lingua franca in the world in a way that we’ve never seen before. We’ve never had a world language of this kind before. So people are learning it not just to be able tocommunicate with native speakers, but also with speakers of other language around world.

Interviewer-------And why has it become that dominant language?

David------I think the reason for that is actually very complicated, although in the twentieth century, we can just see that it’s the rise of the US military and consumer power. I mean the technology, all the big developments in technology largely came from the US. So all of these developments actually were produced within the English language, and people had to learn English in order to understand them, or to benefit from them. The Internet is only one example of that kind. Once a language has got into that position of dominance, it’s actually very different to shift it. So we could be seeing the emergence of other big languages in the world becoming more important than they have been, like Spanish, but it’s unlikely that they’re going to shift the English from its position of dominance.

36. English is important, according to David, __________________________. A). because it has become a world language B). because so many people speak and use it C). because a lot of people are learning it D). because it is the lingua franca

37. English has become the dominant language in the world________________________. A). because it has always been the way B). for a reason that is very complicated C). only in the 20th century D). for no reasons

38. English became the dominant language in the 20th century_________________________. A). in the USA

B). because of the increase in American consumer power

C). because developments in technology came mainly from USA. D). all over the world.

39. People had to learn English______________________.

A). because developments in technology were made by English speakers B). because they needed to understand the new developments in technology C). to use the Internet

D). to speak with native Americans

40. David thinks that__________________________.

A). it will be easy for another language to become dominant B). English will not always be the dominant language

C). it will not be easy for another language to become dominant D). English will be the dominant language

第8题:

What, then, is a good education at the end of the twentieth century? Some educators suggest that it should include foreign languages and the study of foreign cultures;a mastery of English, including the ability to write and speak well, because communications have become all-important in the modern world. and also because “a person who doesn't speak and write Clearly doesn't reason clearly either” ; some knowledge of the social sciences(sociology, psychology)that deal with human relations and human problems;some basic knowledge of modem information systems, since the educated professionals of tomorrow will have to understand their machines. Is that all? “No, of course not. ”answer the educators, “We have not mentioned the two great building blocks of education:history and literature!”

Is this truly the best modern education? Perhaps. But every educator would add or subtract a few subjects. And no matter what list of courses would be offered, it would not be approved by all. Not only do the professors have their own ideas on the matter, but the students have theirs' too. “I don't believe, ”protested a Harvard student when his university revised its programs, “I don't believe that colleges have the fight to define what an educated person is. ”But then, who has?


正确答案:
那么什么是20世纪末的良好教育呢?有些教育家提出应包括外国语言和文化的研究;掌握好英语,包括写和说的能力。因为交流已成为现代世界最重要的事情,而且也因为“一个说不清楚、写不明白的人也不会清晰地思考”。还要有一些处理人的关系和人类问题的社会科学知识(社会学、心理学),一些现代信息系统的基本知识,明天的受过教育的专业人员必须懂得他们的机器(电脑)。是不是就这么多了呢?“不是,当然不是,”教育学家们答道,“我们还没有提到教育的两大块积木:历史和文学呢!”
这果然是最好的现代教育吗?也许是吧。但每个教育学家总会加上或减去几门学科,不管拿出一个什么样的课程表来,总不会得到每一个人的认可,对这件事不仅教授们有自己的看法,而且学生也有自己的想法。哈佛大学修改授课计划时,该校有一个学生抗议说:“我认为学校无权下定义来规定什么人才是受过教育的人。”然而,谁有呢?

第9题:

The Law to Keep the Oil Industry under Control
The Norwegian Government is doing its best to keep the oil industry under control.A new law limits exploration to an area south of the southern end of the long coastline;production limits have been laid down(though these have already been
raised);and oil companies have not been allowed to employ more than a limited number of foreign workers.But the oil industry has a way of getting over such problems,and few people believe that the Government will be able to hold things back for long.As on Norwegian politician said last week:“We will soon be changed beyond all recognition.”
Ever since the war,the Government has been carrying out a programme of development in the area north of the Arctic
Circle.During the past few years this programme has had a great deal of success:Tromso has been built up into a local
capital with a university,a large hospital and a healthy industry.But the oil industry has already started to draw people south,
and within a few years the whole northern policy could be in ruins.
The effects of the oil industry would not be limited to the north,however.With nearly 100 percent employment,everyone
can see a situation developing in which the service industries and the tourist industry will lose more of their workers to the oil
industry.Some smaller industries might even disappear altogether when it becomes cheaper to buy goods from abroad.The
real argument over oil is its threat to the Norwegian way of life.Farmers and fishermen do not make up most of the population,but they are an important part of it,because Norwegians see in them many of the qualities that they regard with pride as
essentially Norwegian.And it is the farmers and the fishermen who are most critical of the oil industry because of the damage
that it might cause to the countryside and to the sea.

According to the passage, the oil?industry might lead northern Norway to ____.

A.the development of industry.
B.a growth in population.
C.the failure of the development programme.
D.the development of new towns.

答案:C
