Some NorthAmerican plains horses used their long legs to run south to South America about 10 million years ago. About 5 million years ago, the North American plains horses evolved into modern horses. Some of them ran across the Siberian land bridge to Central Asia, where they must have been happy to find thousands of miles of grassland that they could live on. (18)Some of these Asian horses slowly spread south across Asia andAfrica, evolving into donkeys. Others stayedontheCentralAsianplains,wheretheylearnedtoeatapplesandcarrots. Sometime around 10,000 BC, horses disappeared in both South America and North America. Probably this wasbecause humans hunted and killed them all.

The solution to this problem would be to use less plastic. Several countries now charge for using plastic carrier bags, which reduces the amount used.

B)“因为人人都喜欢与他人沟通”属于绝对表述,故排除;D)“因为沟通对于建立关系而言至关重要”,本项符合 常识但文中没有提到相关内容,故排除。 49. 答案:D) 定位:由题干中的“flat”managementstructure定位到第三段第四句。 详解:事实细节题。定位句提到,当这些公司引入“扁平式”管理结构时,沟通越多越好这一原则还会得到加 强,故答案为D)。A)“迫使老板经常联系员工”,定位句明确提到每个人都可以随时找到老板,但并非老板主动 联系员工,故排除;B)“帮助软化员工的工作底线”,该段末句提到保持联系对工作满意度和盈亏底线来说都是灾 难性的,并没有直接提及“扁平”的管理结构对底线的影响,故排除;C)“毫无疑问,对工作满意度而言是灾难性的”属于绝对表述,可以排除。 50. 答案:B) 定位:由题干中的officecommunication定位到末段第三句。 详解:推理判断题。定位句提到,办公室沟通恰恰是以牺牲对工作至关重要的那种专注为代价的。由此推断, 办公室沟通会影响工作效率,故答案为B)。A)“是解决办公室冲突的一种有效方法”,该段第四句提到我们习惯于 将谈话作为解决方案的来源——用于解决冲突或寻找新的想法,但并未评论其有效性,故排除;C)“应时不时地停 一下”,本段前两句提到了思考三秒钟和每天留下大约三到四件事情不说,并未提及时不时地停止沟通,故排除; D)“对上班族寻找新想法有用”,该段第四句提到我们习惯于将谈话作为寻找新想法的来源,并未评论其是否有用, 故排除。 PassageTwo 全文翻译: 互联网使得信息以闪电般的速度进行传播。信息革命为在线出版商创造了巨大的商机,但并不是所有出版商都 保留了适当的质量把控机制,以确保只有好的信息被分享。(51)相反,许多出版商的目的只是以任何可能的方式 赚钱,而不考虑对整个社会的造成的后果。 当自私的出版商开设网店时,主要目标是尽可能多地出版,这通常是以牺牲质量为代价。在这方面,许多出版 商开办了大量专注于重叠全科的在线期刊,以增加他们发表的论文总数,并聘用那些在科学或出版方面没有任何经 验的年轻业务经理。(52)在某些情况下,网络出版商甚至放弃同行评议,同时仍将自己的在线期刊当作科学期刊 ——这是一个利用那些只想分享研究的科学家的骗局。 如果出版商精心安排业务以赚取更多收入,那么往往会对他们的产品造成损害。当出版商创刊时从重叠领域入 手,加上发表更多研究成果的压力,这可能促使发表边缘化甚至令人质疑的文章。此外,具有多个重叠领域的期刊 以及具有非常窄的专业领域的期刊,其出版商提高了对愿意审稿者时间和精力投入的要求。(53)由于审稿人所投 入的时间和精力一般得不到补偿,所以期刊编辑通常无法找到足够的审稿人来跟上不断提高的出版率。 要改善形势,增加人们对科学界的信任,必须降低出版压力。资金和推广决定不应取决于出版物的数量,而应 以出版物的质量和研究人员的长期生产力和指令为基础。 这只是开始。我们需要其他机制,例如比尔的“掠夺性”出版商名单,以提醒科学家假期刊和假文章。(54) 另外,必须控制在线出版的价格,并建立一个机制,以尊重和奖励努力工作的审稿人。 详解详析: 51. 答案:C) 定位:由题干中的onlinepublishers定位到第一段第三句。 详解:事实细节题。由定位句可知,许多出版商的目的只是以任何可能的方式赚钱,而不考虑对整个社会造成 的后果,故答案为C)。A)“其中一小部分出版商能够保证出版质量”,第二句只提到并不是所有出版商都保留了适 当的质量把控机制,没有提及比例如何,故排除;B)“他们有许多机会创新商业模式”,第二句提到信息革命为在 线出版商创造了巨大的商机,但没有提到创新商业模式,故排除;D)“社会影响是他们出版书籍时首要考虑的问题”, 这与定位句中的许多在线出版商不考虑对整个社会造成的后果相矛盾,故排除。 52. 答案:A) 定位:由题干中的thesecondparagraph及各选项内容定位到第二段第末句。 详解:推理判断题。定位句提到,网络出版商甚至放弃同行评议,同时仍将自己的在线期刊当作科学期刊。由 此推断,通常情况下,同行评议是区分科学期刊与普通期刊的标准之一,故答案为A)。B)“研究者主要研究不同学 科的结合”,该段第二句提到许多出版商开办了大量专注于重叠学科的在线期刊,这里没有涉及学科的融合,也未 涉及研究者的关注点,故排除;C)“科学家关注出版物而非研究”,由定位句可知,科学家们很乐于做学术,如果 关注了出版物,也就不会陷入骗局,故排除;D)“年轻的业务经理乐于面对新挑战”,该段第二句提到在线出版商 聘用那些科学或出版方面没有任何经验的年轻业务经理,没有提及他们是否乐于面对挑战,故排除。 53. 答案:B) 定位:由题干中的enoughreviewers定位到第三段最后一句。 详解:事实细节题。定位句提到,由于审稿人所投入的时间和精力一般得不到补偿,所以期刊编辑通常无法找 到足够的审稿人来跟上不断提高的出版率,故答案为B)。A)“审稿人的审稿时间紧迫”,定位句只提到审稿人的时 间和精力一般得不到补偿,并没有指出具体原因,故排除;C)“出版商强迫审稿人接受边缘文章”,该段第二句提到,出版商创刊时从重叠领域入手,加上发表更多研究成果的压力,可能促使发表边缘化文章甚至令人质疑的文章, 与审稿人无关,故排除;D)“出版商敦促审稿人快速提高出版率”,定位句提到无法找到足够的审稿人来跟上不断 提高的出版率,并非审稿人要提高出版率,故排除。 54. 答案:B) 定位:由题干中的onlinepublication定位到末段最后一句。 详解:推理判断题。定位句提到,必须控制在线出版的价格,并建立一个机制,以尊重和奖励努力工作的审稿 人。由此推断,那些辛苦付出的审稿人值得奖励,故答案为B)。A)“应该更加重视出版物的数量”,第四段第二句 明确指出,资金和推广决定不应取决于出版物的数量,而应以出版物的质量和研究人员的长期生产力和指令为基础, 该项与原文意思不符,故排除;C)“假期刊应该报备给监管机构”,末段第二句提到我们应该建立像比尔的“掠夺 性”出版商名单,以提醒科学家假期刊和假文章,并未提及监管机构,故排除;D)“应该大大降低在线出版的价格”, 文中只提到必须控制在线出版的价格,没有说如何控制,故排除。 55. 答案:D) 定位:由题干中的themainideaofthispassage定位至全文。 详解:主旨大意题。作者开篇通过信息快速传播引出在线出版商的问题:不是所有出版商都保留了适当的质量 把控机制。首段末句指出,许多出版商的目的只是以任何可能的方式赚钱,而不考虑对整个社会造成的后果。第二 段指出,出版商以牺牲质量为代价尽可能的出版更多的文章。第三段具体说明这种做法带来的损害。最后两段针对 如何改变现状给出建议。纵观全篇,可以看出文章主旨是谈论在线出版商为了赚钱,不顾质量,大量发表科研论文, 故答案为D)。A)“在线出版商应该采取措施,与假学术期刊作斗争”,本文前面分析的是问题,只在最后两段针 对具体措施提出建议,该项以偏概全,故排除;B)“在线出版商牺牲质量来追求工作效率”,此处的工作效率过于 笼统,与文中表述的大量出版商寻求利益不符,故排除;C)“在线出版商的商业模式极有可能对他们的出版物造成 损害”,由第三段首句可知,该项是本段提及的部分内容,为分论点,故排除。 Part Ⅳ Translation 参考译文 The Spring Festival, a traditional festival in China, is as import as Christmas Day in America. Just as American childrengetChristmas presentsfromSantaClaus,Chinesekidsgetluckymoneyfromtheirparentsandrelatives, whichisa gift that every kid eagerly looks forward to during the festival.

Notonly can lucky money be given to the kids the moment theykowtow and pay a New Year call on the elders,but also it canbesecretlyputunderthepillowbytheeldersafterthekidsarewrappedindeepslumberonNewYear’seve. 难点注释 1.第一句中,“相当于美国的圣诞节”可使用as+adj.+as结构,通过类比表达两个节日在各自国家的重要性。“相 当于”还可译为thesameas。 2.第二句是由“而”连接的对比句,因此可用while将前后两个分句连接起来;将“这也是每个孩子过年时都热切 期盼的礼物”译作定语从句,对压岁钱进行解释说明。翻译时,还可将“美国小孩能从圣诞老人那里获得圣诞礼物” 看作参照,即“就像美国小孩……一样,中国小孩……”,将句子译为JustasAmericankids…,Chinesekids…. 3.第三句比较长,可以将“‘压岁钱’是……祝福……”合译为一句:把“护身符”作为“是”的宾语,将“长辈 送给孩子的”译为定语从句,“表达了长辈对孩子的美好祝福”译作伴随状语,对“护身符”进行解释说明。“据 说可以使孩子平平安安地度过新的一年”单独成句,译为Itissaid/believedthat 结构,即“据说……”。 4.最后一句中,“可……,也可……”既可译为either…or…结构,也可使用notonly…butalso…结构,为增加句式 多样性,可将notonly置于句首,该分句使用倒装语序。“睡着”最简单的译法是使用短语fallasleep,译文中使用 短语bewrappedindeepslumber, 体现了译文语言的灵活性。
