18、分数:7.10)A.B.C.D.(3). A. Evolution has equipped all creatures with a regular pattern “Johnny Cant Count“; “Johnny Cant Write“.Are youngsters in other industrialized countries doing any better? Yes, in many ways they are, and theres one big reason: they work hard.The consequences are sobering. Student
19、s in the U.S. now enter the job market with inferior skills. Once the unquestioned champion in industrial research, America is watching its lead dwindle. Some experts go so far as to suggest that failings in education put the nation in danger of becoming a second-class economic power. Whether or not
20、 thats the case is a key element in a bubbling debate over international competitiveness. Consider just these few examples of how American students are falling behind:When Japanese teenagers finish the 12th grade, they have the equivalent of three to four more years of school than U.S. high school g
21、raduates do. Stanfords Thomas Rohlen, a leading expert on Japan, says half of them know as much as the average U.S. college graduates.Nine of 10 Japanese get high school diplomas. But nearly a quarter of Americas teenagers drop out, sending one million untrained youngsters into the job market every
22、year. The problem would be worse, some experts say with a straight face; if so many teenagers didnt stay in school they could take drivers education and get a drivers license.For years, foreigners have outclassed young Americans in academic knowledge, and this week sees still another indictment (谴责)
23、 of U.S. education: new details on how thousands of 12th graders in selected countries did on a 1982 algebra test given by the International Association for Evaluation of Educational Achievement. Chinas Hong Kong ranked first, barely ahead of Japan. The U.S. finished 14th among the 15 countries and
24、areas, and ahead of Thailand, and behind Hungary. In a United Nations survey of what students in nine countries know about foreign cultures, the U.S. comes in next to last. One test of American 12-year-olds shows 20 percent unable to locate even their own nation on a world map. “Our students lag beh
25、ind, and it doesnt bode (预示) well for our country,“ says Herbert Walberg, a comparative education expert for the University of Illinois in Chicago. “Fifty-five percent of Americas jobs involve information processing. If we dont have good, solid skills in language, geography, math and science, well b
26、e at a severe disadvantage.“(分数:71.00)(1).American newspapers have carried the sad news about American education that _. A. Johnny cant read or write C. American youngsters do not work hard B. many American students cant find a job D. many American young people are illiterates(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(2).W
27、hich of the following sentences is NOT true according to the passage? A. The United States was once considered the best in industrial research. B. Japanese high school students know much more than their American peers. C. Only in these years have American students fallen behind foreigners in academi
28、c knowledge. D. One out of four American teenagers choose to work before they finish high school education.(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(3).“With a straight face“ in paragraph 4 most probably means _. A. with a long face C. with a serious expression B. with a clean face D. with an honest expression(分数:14.20)A.

American students were better than Thai students D. Hungarian students ranked the 15th(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(5).According to Herbert Walberg, American stu
30、dents will be at a serious disadvantage because _. A. there will not be sufficient jobs for them C. more foreigners will seek jobs in the U.S. B. they lack the skills needed for their future jobs D. almost all the jobs require information processing(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.十四、BPassage Two/B(总题数:1,分数:71.00)
31、Every product on the market has a variety of costs built into it before it is ever put up for sale to a customer. There are costs of production, transportation, storage, advertising, and more. Each of these costs must bring in some profit at each stage: truckers must profit from transporting product
32、s, or they would not be in business. Thus, costs also include several layers of profits. The selling price of a product must take all of these costs (and built-in profits) into consideration. The selling price itself consists of a markup over the total of all costs, and it is normally based on a per
33、centage of the total cost.The markup may be quite high-90 percent of cost or it may be low. Grocery items in a supermarket usually have a low markup, while mink coat have a very high one. High markups, however, do not in themselves guarantee big profits. Profits come from turnover. If an item has a
34、50 percent markup and does not sell, there is no profit. But if a cereal has an 8 percent markup and sells very well, there are reasonable profits.While most pricing is based on cost factors, there are some exceptions. Prestige pricing means setting prices artificially high in order to attract selec
35、t clientele. Such pricing attempts to suggest that the quality or style of the product is exceptional or that the item cannot be found elsewhere. Stores can use prestige pricing to attract wealthy shoppers.Leader pricing and bait pricing are the opposites of prestige pricing. Leader pricing means se
36、tting low prices on certain items to get people to come into the stores. The products so priced are called loss leaders because little or no profit can be made on them. The profits are made from other products people buy while in the store. Bait pricing, now generally considered illegal, means setti
37、ng artificially low prices to attract customers. The store, however, has no intention of selling goods at the bait prices. The point is to get people into the store and persuade them of the inferiority of the low priced item. Then a higher priced item is presented as a better alternative.A common re
38、tail tactic is odd priced products. For some products of $300, the store will set the price at $295 or $299.5 to give the appearance of a lower price. Automobiles and other high priced products are usually priced in this manner. For some reason $7,995 has more appeal to a potential car customer than
39、 $8,000.Bid pricing is a special kind of price setting. It is often used in the awarding of government contracts. Several companies are asked to submit bids on a job, and normally the lowest bidder wins. A school system may want to buy a large number of computers. Several companies are asked to subm
40、it prices, and the school district will decide on the best bid based as well on considerations of quality and service.(分数:71.00)(1).We learn from the second paragraph that _. A. reducing cost is the surest way to increase profits C. fair markup promises the greatest profits B. profits depend on how
41、well goods are selling D. lower markup brings reasonable profits(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(2).In a department store, the purpose of showing clients bait priced items is to _. A. demonstrate the bad quality of these items C. earn some dirty money from these items B. get them to purchase some other articles D
42、. persuade them to buy what they dont really need(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(3).Odd pricing method is a common retail tactic which _. A. is often used with very expensive items B. is only effective on potential car customers C. is the most popular way of pricing a product D. is the most effective way of sell
43、ing low priced products(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(4).In a bidding deal, _. A. the buyers search from place to place for desired object B. the government selects the best items C. the government transacts with an individual D. the sellers compete with each other for the bid(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.(5).The best titl
44、e for this passage is _. A. How to Reduce Costs C. Different Pricing B. Cost and Price D. Selling Tactics(分数:14.20)A.B.C.D.十五、BPart Translat(总题数:1,分数:106.50)2.中国最早发明了火药,当时主要用来制作烟花爆竹(firecrackers)。在传统的中国文化里,人们用鞭炮驱走鬼怪。现在人们还保留着春节燃放鞭炮的习俗。然而,多年来燃放鞭炮已经引发了多起伤害事件。每年都会有意外事件,造成燃放者失明、残疾或者其他损伤。因此,中国很多城市已经出台相关规定

46、ut no more than UB200/U/B words.The Rise of “Shanzhai Culture“(分数:106.50)_正确答案:(The Rise of “Shanzhai Culture“Recent years have seen the sudden rise of “Shanzhai culture“. There are cheap copies of designer bags, knock-offs of name-brand clothing and poor imitations of some famous comedians or actre
47、sses everywhere.Whats the reason for the sudden rise in “Shanzhai culture“? The rise in “Shanzhai culture“ seems to have coincided with the rise of Chinas pop culture, which seems to glorify and worship wealth and fame increasingly. People want to appear rich and fashionable, so they buy what appears to be Rolex and Versace. People want to appear famous, so now we have Xiao Shenyang parodies.In my opinion, “Shanzhai culture“ is fine if its just for laughs, such as parodies of fa
