Some of them are so 21 with detailed information and s

11、tep-by-step instructions for performing the function, that you“d think this was a new sort of 22 which all of us are now required to learn. The strongest impression the casual reader gets is that proper dying has become an extraordinary, 23 an exotic experience, something only the specially trained

12、can do. 24 , you could be led to believe that we are the only 25 capable of being aware of death, and that when the rest of nature is experiencing the life cycle and dying, one generation after 26 , it is a different kind of process, done automatically and trivially, or more “natural“, as we say. An

One weekend 28 was a normal-looking elm, maybe a little bare in spots but 29 alarming, and the next weekend it was gone, passed over, departed, taken. Taken is right, for the tree surgeon came by

14、 yesterday with his 30 of young helpers and their cherry picker, and took it down branch by branch and carted it off in the back of a red truck, everyone 31 .

Sometimes attributed to Frank Zappa, other times to Elvis Costello, this quote is usually intended to convey th

18、e futility of such an endeavor, if not the complete silliness of even attempting it. But Glenn Kurtz“s graceful memoir, Practicing- A Musician“s Return to Music, turns the expression on its head, giving it a different meaning by creating a lovely, unique book. Kurtz picked up the guitar as a kid in

19、a music-loving family, attended the Long Island music school, and went on to play on Merv Griffin“s TV show before graduating from Tufts University. Motivating the young Kurtz was the dream of reinventing classical guitar, as if by his great ambition alone he could push it from the margins of popula

20、r interest to center stage-something not even accomplished by the late Spanish guitarist Andres Segovia, perhaps the only artist of the form ever to reach anything resembling widespread celebrity. This book reads like a love story of sorts: Boy meets guitar. Boy loves guitar. Guitar breaks boy“s hea

21、rt or, more precisely, the ordinariness of a working musician“s life does so. “I“d just imagined the artist“s life naively, childishly, with too much longing, too much poetry and innocence and purity,“ Kurtz writes. “The guitar had been the instrument of my dreams. Now the dream was over.“ Boy leave

22、s guitar. Were the story to end here, this book would be a tragedy, but after nearly a decade the boy returns to guitar, and although he has lost the enthusiasm he had in his youth, he finds his love of the guitar again in a way he never could have appreciated before. Although Kurtz is writing about

23、 a unique musical path, his journey speaks eloquently to the heart of anyone who has ever desperately yearned to achieve something and felt the sting of disappointment. “Everyone who gives up a serious childhood dream-of becoming an artist, a doctor, an engineer, an athlete-lives the rest of their l

24、ife with a sense of loss, with nagging what ifs, “he writes. “Is that time and effort, that talent and ambition, truly wasted?“(分数:6.00)(1).The quotation mentioned in Paragraph I implies that writing about music is_(分数:1.00)A.an ambitious attemptB.a modem form of artC.an impossible taskD.a rewarding

28、 that_(分数:1.00)A.one will be made bitter by his frustrationB.reliving old dreams can be rewardingC.without dreams life is incompleteD.it“s inevitable for a musician to experience setbacks六、Passage 2(总题数:1,分数:6.00)A few years ago, in their search for ways to sell more goods, advertising men hit on a

29、new and controversial gimmick. It is a silent, invisible commercial that, the ad men claim, can be rushed past the consumer“s conscious mind and planted in his subconscious- and without the consumer“s knowledge. Developed by James Vicary, a research man who studies what makes people buy, this techni

30、que relies on the psychological principle of subliminal perception. Scientists tell us that many of the sights coming to or eyes are not consciously “seen“. We select only a few for conscious “seeing“ and ignore the rest. Actually the discarded impressions are recorded in the brain though they are b

31、elow the threshold of consciousness. There“s little doubt in Vicary“s mind as to the subliminal ad“s effectiveness. His proof can be summed up in just two words: sales increase. In an unidentified movie house not so long ago, unknown audiences saw a curious film program. At the same time, on the sam

32、e screen on which the film hero was courting the heroine a subliminal projector was flashing its invisible commercials. “Get popcorn“, ordered the commercial for a reported one three-thousandths of a second every five seconds. It announced “Coca-Cola“ at the same speed and frequency to other audienc

33、es. At the end of a six weeks trial, popcorn sales had gone up 57 percent, Coke sales 18 percent. Experimental Films. Inc, says the technique is not new. It began research on subliminal perception in 1954. Experimental Films stresses that its equipment was designed for helping problematic students a

34、nd treating the mentally ill. At NYU two doctors showed twenty women the projected image of an expressionless face. They told the subjects to watch the face for some change of expression. Then they flashed the word angry on the screen at subliminal speeds. Now the women thought the face looked unple

35、asant. When the word happy was flashed on the screen instead, the subjects thought the woman“s facial expression looked much more pleasant. Subliminal techniques, its promoters believe, are good for more than selling popcorn. Perhaps the process can even be used to sell political candidates, by leav

36、ing a favorable impression of the candidate in the minds of the electorates subliminally. How convincing are these invisible commercials? Skeptical psychologists answer that they aren“t anywhere near as effective as the ad men would like to think they are. Nothing has been proven yet scientifically,

37、 says a prominent research man.(分数:6.00)(1).Subliminal perception is when one_(分数:1.00)A.has an attempt to buy with a good reasonB.recalls some past events and activitiesC.enjoys seeing some images in his mindD.gets a mental picture without consciousness(2).To advertising sponsors, the true test of

38、subliminal projection is whether it_(分数:1.00)A.proves worth the money spentB.call create a mental impressionC.helps sell more of their productsD.can arouse anger in the audience(3).Subliminal ads are invisible because they are shown very_(分数:1.00)A.fastB.naturallyC.oftenD.vaguely(4).Subliminal techn

39、iques have NOT been used for_(分数:1.00)A.promoting salesB.making commercialsC.curing mental illnessD.selling political candidates(5).Some psychologists seem to believe that subliminal projection_(分数:1.00)A.needs a cautious applicationB.has no effect on salesC.benefits the customersD.causes a mental c

40、onfusion(6).What is the author“s position on subliminal projection in ads?(分数:1.00)A.He reveals none in the passage.B.He advocates its prohibition.C.He considers it an exaggeration.D.He acclaims its effectiveness.七、Section B(总题数:0,分数:0.00)八、Passage 1(总题数:1,分数:5.00)Honesty no longer seems to be the b

41、est policy with telling of lies becoming a common part of our daily lives. A new research by a psychologist at the University of Massachusetts has revealed that most people lie in everyday conversation when they are trying to appear likable and competent. 1 1“People tell a considerable number of lie

42、s in everyday conversation. It was a very surprising result. We didn“t expect lying to be such a part of daily conversation,“ said Robert S. Feldman. The study also found that lies told by men and women differ in content, though not in quantity. 2 2 “Women were more likely to lie to make the person

43、they were talking to feel good, while men lied most often to make themselves look better,“ Feldman noted. As part of the study, a group of 121 pairs of undergraduate students were recruited to participate. 3 3Participants were unaware that the session was being videotaped. At the end of the session,

44、 the students were then asked to watch the video of themselves and identify any inaccuracies in what they had said during the conversation. They were encouraged to identify all lies, no matter how big or small. Feldman said the students who participated in the study were surprised at their own resul

45、ts. “When they were watching themselves on videotape, people found themselves lying much more than they thought they had,“ Feldman said. The lies the students told varied considerably. 4 4Others were more extreme, such as falsely claiming to be the star of a rock band. “It“s so easy to lie,“ Feldman

46、 said. “We teach our children to be honest, but we also tell them it“s polite to pretend they like a birthday gift they“ ve been given. 5 5.“ A. The results showed that men do not lie more than women or vice versa, but they lie in different ways. B. Kids get a very mixed message regarding the practi

47、cal aspects of lying, and it has an impact on how they behave as adults. C. Some were relatively minor, such as agreeing with the person that they liked someone when they did not. D. They were told that the purpose of the study was to examine how people interact when they meet someone new. E. Anyway

48、, the knowledge that we are all capable of lying makes it really hard to trust people when they tell you things. F. The study, published in the Journal of Basic and Applied Social Psychology, found that 60 percent of people lied at least once during a 10-minute conversation and told an average of tw

49、o to three lies.(分数:5.00)填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_九、Passage 2(总题数:1,分数:5.00)Customer experience is the internal and subjective response customers have to any direct or indirect contact with a company. 1 1Indirect contact most often involves unplanned encounters with representations of a company“s products, services, or brands and takes the form of word-of-mouth re
