For each question, there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should

26、decide on the best choice, then mark the corresponding letter on the answer sheet with a single line through the centre. Mary Barton, particularly in its early chapters, is a moving response to the suffering of the industrial worker in the England of the 1840s. What is most impressive about the book

27、 is the intense and painstaking effort made by the author, Elizabeth Gaskell, to convey the experience of everyday life in working-class homes. Her method is partly documentary in nature: the novel includes such features as a carefully annotated reproduction of dialect, the exact details of food pri

28、ces in an account of a tea party, an itemized description of the furniture of the Bartons living room, and a transcription (again annotated) of the ballad “The Oldham Weaver“. The interest of this record is considerable, even though the method has a slightly distancing effect. As a member of the mid

29、dle class, Gaskell could hardly help approaching working-class life as an outside observer and a reporter, and the reader of the novel is always conscious of this fact. But there is genuine imaginative re-creation in her accounts of the walk in Green Heys Fields, of tea at the Bartons house, and of

30、John Barton and his friends discovery of the starving family in the cellar in the chapter “Poverty and Death“. Indeed, for a similarly convincing re-creation of such families emotions and responses (which are more crucial than the material details on which the mere reporter is apt to concentrate), t

31、he English novel had to wait 60 years for the early writing of D. H. Laurence. If Gaskell never quite conveys the sense of full participation that would completely authenticate this aspect of Mary Barton, she still brings to these scenes an intuitive recognition of feelings that has its own sufficie

32、nt conviction. The chapter “Old Alice s History“ brilliantly dramatizes the situation of that early generation of workers brought from the villages and the countryside to the urban industrial centers. The account of Job Legh, the weaver and naturalist who is devoted to the study of biology, vividly

33、embodies one kind of response to an urban industrial environment: an affinity for living things that hardens, by its very contrast with its environment, into a kind of crankiness. The early chaptersabout factory workers walking out in spring into Green Heys Fields; about Alice Wilson, remembering, i

34、n her cellar the twig-gathering for brooms in the native village that she will never again see; about Job Legh, intent on his impaled insects-capture the characteristic responses of a generation to the new and crushing experience of industrialism. The other early chapters eloquently portray the deve

35、lopment of the instinctive cooperation with each other that was already becoming an important tradition among workers. Questions: （分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following best describes the authors attitude toward Gaskells use of the method of documentary record in Mary Barton?（分数：1.00）A.Uncritical enthu

36、siasmB.Unresolved ambivalenceC.Qualified approvalD.Mild irritation(2).According to the passage, Mary Barton and the early novels of D. H. Lawrence share which of the following?（分数：1.00）A.Depiction of the feelings of working-class familiesB.Documentary objectivity about working-class circumstancesC.R

37、ichly detailed description of working-class adjustment to urban lifeD.Imaginatively structured plots about working-class characters(3).Which of the following is most closely analogous to Job Legh in Mary Barton, as that character is described in the passage?（分数：1.00）A.An entomologist who collected b

38、utterflies as a childB.A small-town attorney whose hobby is nature photographyC.A young man who leaves his familys dairy farm to start his own businessD.A city dweller who raises exotic plants on the roof of his apartment building(4).It can be inferred from examples given in the last paragraph of th

39、e passage that which of the following was part of “the new and crushing experience of industrialism“ for many members of the English working class in the nineteenth century?（分数：1.00）A.Extortionate food pricesB.Geographical displacementC.Hazardous working conditionsD.Alienation from fellow workers(5)

40、.Which of the following phrases could best be substituted for the phrase “this aspect of Mary Barton“ in pra.2 without changing the meaning of the passage as a whole?（分数：1.00）A.the material details in an urban working-class environmentB.the influence of Mary Barton on Lawrences early workC.the place

41、 of Mary Barton in the development of the English novelD.the portrayal of the particular feelings and responses of working-class charactersBSection B/BIn this section, there is one passage followed by a summary. Read the passage carefully and complete the summary below by choosing no more than three

42、 words from the passage. Remember to write the answers on the answer sheet. Just like the Moon in a solar eclipse, the planet Venus will impose itself for a few brief hours exactly between the Earth and the Sun. But instead of blocking out the Sun, as the Moon does, Venus will only appear as a small

43、 black dot against the face of the Sun. This is because Venus is so much further away from us than the Moon. The 2004 transit of Venus will be visible in its entirety from Europe, Africa and Asia. Australians can watch the first part of the transit, but it will be after sunset when Venus completes i

44、ts journey across the disk of the Sun. New Zealanders will have to content themselves with webcasts, as the transit for them begins after the Sun has set. Although less spectacular than a lunar eclipse, the transit of Venus is far more unusual. It also has particular significance for Australians bec

45、ause it led to the first British exploration“ of the east coast, by none other than Captain James Cook. The reason why transits of Venus are so uncommon is that Earth and Venus orbit the Sun in slightly different planes. This difference, about 3.4 degrees, combined with the fact that Earth has a slo

46、wer orbit than Venus, means that the two planets align with the Sun only twice (eight years apart) every 121.5 or 105.5 years.

Use the telescope or binoculars to project the image onto a piece of white paper or card. With your back to the Sun, aim the telescope towards the paper (use the shadow of the scope as a guide). The paper should be about 20cm behind the eyepiece of the telescope. F
