20、f a young Iguanodon dinosaur whose life is uprooted when a meteor hits the planet and he and his family are forced to look for a new home.“Its about characters who have to face adversity and stick together,“ Schumacher said, a human story told with animals.But he admits the real achievement of “Dino
21、saur“ is taking digitally created characters and blending them with real images like waves crashing on the beach or clouds floating in the sky. This creates “a live-action type of film.“To be different from traditional cartoons, “Dinosaur“ attempts to re-create the real-life existence of dinosaurs.
22、And the talking animals offer simple lessons in how to live. In short, it is vintage Disney.The 90-minute movie took more than five and a half years to produce, and Disney built a huge campus in Burbank, California for the new digital studio, called “The Secret Lab, “that would create “Dinosaur.“Whi
23、le a typical live-action film takes about two years to make from beginning to the cinema, Disney animators took 18 months just to make a “test“ version of the film to see if it could be done.Four years later, they have “Dinosaur,“ and early reviews are ecstatic. Trade newspaper Daily Variety called
24、it “an eye-popping visual spectacle that serves up a vivid picture of what the planet might have looked like.“The film follows the life of Aladar, an Iguanodon-a sort of cow-like animal weighing up to five tons-who is separated from his herd and raised by a family of primates called Lemurs.Aladar, v
25、oiced by actor D. B. Sweeney, feels the Lemurs are his kin. But he is actually an outsider.When a meteor hits Earth, Aladar saves his family from the fire and devastation that follow and they find themselves on a quest for food and water. While on their trek, they meet other prehistoric beasts all l
26、ooking for a safe nesting ground.During the journey, Aladar fights with the herds leader, Kron, falls in love with Krons sister, Neera, and teaches the other dinosaurs that if they all work together they can achieve a common goal.The scenery is bright and beautiful. When herd members locate their ne
27、sting paradise, the sky is the bluest of blue, the grass a deep green, and the water looks cool and inviting.The film is rated PG, meaning parental guidance is suggested because of its violence.（分数：5.00）(1).If you want to know “Dinosaur“ in detail, you have to go to _ . A. the museum B. the library
28、C. the cinema D. The Secret Lab（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).We can learn from the text that “Dinosaur“ is actually based on _ .

Three basic ways may be described as the market system, the administered system and the traditional system.In a market system individual economic unit
31、s are free to interact among each other in the market place. It is possible to buy commodities from other economic units or sell commodities to them. In a market, transactions may take place via barter or money exchange. In a barter economy, real goods such as automobiles, shoes, and pizzas are trad
32、ed against each other. Obviously, finding somebody who wants to trade my old car in exchange for a sailboat may not always be an easy task. Hence, the introduction of money as a medium of exchange eases transactions considerably. In the modern market economy, goods and services are bought or sold fo
33、r money.An alternative to the market system is administrative control by some agency over all transactions. This agency will issue edicts or commands as to how much of each goods and services should be produced, exchanged, and consumed by each economic unit. Central planning may be one way of admini
34、stering such an economy. The central plan, drawn up by the government, shows the amounts of each commodity produced by the various firms and allocated to different households for consumption. This is an example of complete planning of production, consumption, and exchange for the whole economy.In a
35、traditional society, production and consumption patterns are governed by tradition: parentage, religion, and custom fix every persons place within the economic system. Transactions take place on the basis of tradition, too. People belonging to a certain group or caste may have an obligation to care
36、for other persons, provide them with food and shelter, care for their health, and provide for their education. Clearly, in a system where every decision is made on the basis of tradition alone, progress may be difficult to achieve. A stagnant society may result.（分数：4.00）(1).What is the main purpose
37、of the passage? A. To outline contrasting types of economic systems. B. To explain the science of economics. C. To argue for the superiority of one economic system. D. To compare barter and money-exchange markets.（分数：0.80）A.B.C.D.(2).In the second paragraph, the word “real“ in “real goods“ could bes
38、t be replaced by which of the following? A. High quality. B. Concrete. C. Utter. D. Authentic.（分数：0.80）A.B.C.D.(3).According to the passage, a barter economy can lead to _. A. rapid speed of transactions B. misunderstandings C. inflation D. difficulties for the traders（分数：0.80）A.B.C.D.(4).According
39、to the passage, who has the greatest degree of control in an administered system? A. Individual. B. Small businesses. C. Major corporations. D. The government.（分数：0.80）A.B.C.D.(5).Which of the following is NOT mentioned by the author as a criterion for determining a persons place in a traditional so
40、ciety? A. Family background. B. Age. C. Religious belief. D. Custom.（分数：0.80）A.B.C.D.十、BPassage 3/B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Culture is the sum total of all the traditions, customs, beliefs, and ways of life of a given group of human beings. In this sense, every group has a culture, however savage, undeveloped
41、, or uncivilized it may seem to us.To the professional anthropologist, there is no intrinsic superiority of one culture over another, just as to the professional linguist there is no intrinsic hierarchy among languages.People once thought of the languages of backward groups as savage, undeveloped fo
42、rms ofspeech, consisting largely of grunts and groans. While it is possible that language in general began as a series of grunts and groans, it is a fact established by the study of “backward“ languages that no spoken tongue answers that description today. Most languages of uncivilized groups are, b
43、y our most severe standards, extremely complex, delicate, and ingenious pieces of machinery for the transfer of ideas. They fall behind our Western languages not in their sound patterns or grammatical structures, which usually are fully adequate for all language needs, but only in their vocabularies
44、, which reflect the objects and activities known to their speakers. Even in this department, however, two things are to be noted: 1. All languages seem to possess the machinery for vocabulary expansion, either by putting together words already in existence or by borrowing them from other languages a
45、nd adapting them to their own system. 2. The objects and activities requiring names and distinctions in “backward“ languages, while different from ours, are often surprisingly numerous and complicated. A Western language distinguishes merely between two degrees of remoteness (“this“ and “that“); som
46、e languages of the American Indians distinguish between what is close to the speaker, or to the person addressed, or removed .from both, or out of sight, or in the past, or in the future.This study of language, in turn, casts a new light upon the claim of the anthropologist that all cultures are to be viewed independently and without ideas of rank or hierarchy.（分数：5.00）(1).The definition of culture is mentioned here to_. A. indicate the theme of the passage B. explain why every group has a culture of its own C. introduce the sim
