The translator must have an excellent,up-to-date knowledge of his   11  languages, full facility in the handling of his target language, which will be his mother tongue or language of habitual use, and knowledge and understanding of the 12  subject-matter in his field of specialization. This is, as it were, his professional equipment. In addition to this, it is desirable that he should have an   13 mind, wide interests, a good memory and the ability to grasp quickly the basic principles of new developments. He should be willing to work on his own, often at high speeds, but should be humble enough to 14 others should his own knowledge not always prove adequate to the task in hand. He should be able to type fairly quickly and accurately and, if he is working mainly for publication, should have more than a nodding  15 with printing techniques and proof-reading. If he is working basically as an information translator, let us say, for an industrial firm, he should have the flexibility of mind to enable him to   16  rapidly from one source language to another, as well as from one subject-matter to another, since this ability is frequently required of him in such work. Bearing in mind the nature of the translator´s work, i.e. the processing of the written word, it is,strictly speaking, 17 that he should be able to speak the languages he is dealing with. If he does speak them, it is an  18   rather than a hindrance, but this skill is in many ways a luxury that he can do away with. It is, however, desirable that he should have an approximate idea about the pronunciation of his source languages even if this is restricted to 19  how proper names and place names are pronounced. The same applies to an ability to write his source languages. If he can, well and good; if he cannot, it does not matter. There are many other skills and 20 that are desirable in a translator.

24、根据以下材料，回答{TSE}题

It is no good on dwelling the past. What existed or happened in the past may have been beautiful or exciting and may now bring profound and precious memories, but the past is dead, and it is not healthy for living spirits to linger over a world inhabited by ghost. The past may also be a place of horror, of regret, of spilled milk, of unfortunate deeds that cannot be undone, of sad words like "might have been." However,it is painful and pointless to fixate on a period that cannot be relieved or repaired. It is unproductive self-punishment. The past must be kept in its place, outlive and outgrow.

It is also useless to worry about the future. Why fly to heaven before it´s time? What anxious visions haunt people who think too much about the future? They may envision the horrible mushroom cloud; the earth shriveling from radiation; the over-populated, abused earth gone dead. They may imagine their own lives going awry; appointments missed;advancements given to someone else; their houses burned to the ground; their loves lost; everything in their lives, as in a nightmare, slipping away. There is no end to the disasters people can worry about when focusing anxiously on the future. There are events in the future, including their own deaths, over which they have little or no control, but which can ruin their lives if they worry about them. There are some disasters they may be able to prevent, but they must do that by living well in the present, not simply by worrying about the future.

The present moment, which is even now moving into the past, is the only reality I know, and I don´t want to miss it. The wild cherry cough drop dissolving in my mouth is sweet and soothing. Even my sore throat and backache have meaning. The cool night air, the cracking noise of my furnace, my cat yawning and stretching--these are the tangible realities I can recognize. They exist in this moment, together with my own breathing, the warm lamp overhead, the jerking of my typewriter. Along with these are the realities of other and of all life on this earth, which matter to me now, not at some past or future time.

Everyone needs a sense of history, I think,particularly a feeling for his or her own roots, but history needs to keep its distance to be appreciated. It is also vital to have some sense of direction, which means making plans for the future but not becoming preoccupied with them. What is most important, I believe, is living in the present, that is, being alive now.

{TS} By describing the past as "a world inhabited by ghost" (Line 3, Para 1),the author means that_______________.

A、the past is an indication

B、the past is the source of unhappy feelings

C、the past is all about the spirits of the dead

D、the past is of little significance for the present

25、What does the author suggest that we do with the past?

A、Let the past outlive and outgrow our life.

B、Repair what has been done wrong in the past.

C、Put aside the past no matter it is good or bad.

D、Keep the sweet memories and abandon the bitter ones.

26、Which of the following may be the worst problem that threatens one´s life?

A、Living with great anxiety.

B、Heavily-polluted environment.

C、Lack of righteous purpose for life.

D、Incapability of controlling life events.

27、What does the author most probably treasure?

A、The sore throat and backache he is having.

B、Any living thing she gets along with everyday.

C、The healthy life he will enjoy after he recovers.

D、The wild-cherry cough drop he drank a moment ago.

28、根据以下材料，回答{TSE}题

Khalida´s father says she´s 9-or maybe 10. As much as Sayed Shah loves his 10 children, the functionally illiterate Afghan farmer can´t keep track of all their birth dates. Khalida huddles at his side, trying to hide beneath her chador and headscarf. They both know the family can´t keep her much longer. Khalida´s father has spent much of his life raising opium, as men like him have been doing for decades in the stony hillsides of eastern Afghanistan and on the dusty southern plains. It´s the only reliable cash crop most of those farmer sever had. Even so, Shah and his family barely got by: traffickers may prosper,but poor farmers like him only subsist. Now he´s losing far more than money."I never imagined I´d have to pay for growing opium by giving up my daughter," says Shah. The family´ s heartbreak began when shah borrowed$2000 from a local trafficker, promising to repay the loan with 24 kilos of opium at harvest time. Late last spring, just before harvest, a government crop-eradication team appeared at the family´s little plot of land in Laghman province and destroyed Shah´s entire two and a half acres of poppies. Unable to meet his debt, Shah fled with his family to Jalala bad, the capital of neighboring Nangarhar province. The trafficker found them anyway and demanded his opium. So Shah took his case before a tribal council in Laghman and begged for leniency. Instead, the elders unanimously ruled that Shah would have to reimburse the trafficker by giving Khalida to him in marriage. Now the family can only wait for the 45-year-olddrugrunner to come back for his prize. Khalida wanted to be a teacher someday, but that has become impossible. "It´s my fate," the child says.

Afhans disparagingly call them "loan brides"--daughters given in marriage by fathers who have no other way out of debt. The practice began with the dowry a bridegroom´s family traditionally pays to the bride´s father in tribal Pashtun society.These days the amount ranges from$3,000 or so in poorer places like Laghman and Nangarhar to $8,000 or more in Helmand, Afghanistan´s No.1 opium-growing province. For a desperate farmer, that bride price can be salvation--but at a cruel cost. Among the Pashtun, debt marriage puts a lasting stain on the honor of the bride and her family. It brings shame on the country, too. President HamidKarzai recently told the nation: "I call on the people [not to] give their daughters for money; they shouldn´t give them to old men, and they shouldn´t give them in forced marriages."

All the same, local farmers say a man can get killed for failing to repay a loan. No one knows how many debt weddings take place in Afghanistan, where 93 percent of the world´s heroin and other opiates originate. But Afghans say the number of loan brides keeps rising as poppy-eradication efforts push more farmers into default."This will be our darkest year since 2000," says Baz Mohammad,65, a white-bearded former opium farmer in Nangarhar. "Even more daughters will be sold this year."The old man lives with the anguish of selling his own13-year-old daughter in 2000, after Taliban leader Mullah Mohammed Omar banned poppy growing. "Lenders never show any mercy," the old man says.Local farmers say more than one debtor has been bound hand and foot. Then locked into a small windowless room with a smoldering fire. slowly choking to death.

Efforts to promote other crops have failed. Wheat or corn brings $250 an acre at best, while poppy growers can expect 10 times that much. Besides. poppies are more dependable:hardier than either wheat or corn and more tolerant of drought and extreme heat and cold. And in a country with practically no government-funded credit for small farmers, opium growers can easily get advances on their crops. The borrower merely agrees to repay the cash with so many kilos of opium, at a price stipulated by the lender--often 40 percent or more below market value.Islam forbids charging interest on a loan, but moneylenders in poppy country elude the ban by packaging the deal as a crop-futures transaction--and never mind that the rate of return is tantamount to usury.

{TS} Which of the following is not true about "debt marriage" in the third paragraph?

A、It forces the girls to marry old men.

B、It enables the girls to pay off their debts.

C、The girl's family can get much money from it.

29、The relationship between the first and second paragraph is that_______________.

A、the second is the logical result of the first

B、the second offers the main reason of the first

C、each presents the good side of the Afghan society

D、both present the actions taken by the Afghan government

30、The farmers like to grow poppies in their countries not because_______________.

A、traffickers can make great money from the poppies

B、poppies are more reliable and suitable to grow in this place

C、no government funded credit was offered for small farmers

D、growing poppies can earn more money than other crops

31、What is mainly discussed in this passage?

A、The Afghanfamers.  

B、Best place for heroin.

C、Loan marriage. 

D、Man is born with gready nature.

32、根据以下材料，回答{TSE}题

Scientists have long argued whether hypocrisy is driven by emotion or by reason. In other moral judgments, brain imaging shows, regions involved in feeling, not thinking,rule. The role of emotion in moral judgments has overturned the Enlightenment notion that our ethical sense is based on high-minded philosophy and cognition.That brings us to hypocrisy, which is almost ridiculously easy to bring out in people.
In a new study,psychologist David De Steno instructed 94 people to assign themselves and a stranger of two tasks: an easy one or a hard one. Then everyone was asked, how fairly did you act? Next they watched someone else make the assignments, and judged that person´s ethics.

Selflessness was a virtual no-show: 87 Out of 94people opted forth easy task and gave the next guy the difficult one.Hypocrisy, however, showed up with bells on: every single person who made the selfish choice judged his own behavior less strictly--on average,4.5 vs3.1--than that of someone else who grabbed the easy task for himself.

The gap suggests how hypocrisy is possible. When we judge our own misbehaviors less harshly, DeSteno said, it may be because "we have this automatic, gut-level instinct to preserve our self-image. In our heart, maybe we´re just not as sensitive to our own immoral behaviors. People have learned that it pays to seem moral since it lets you avoid criticism and guilt. But even better is appearing moral without having to pay the cost of actually being moral-such as assigning yourself the tough job."

To test the role of cognition in hypocrisy, De Steno had volunteers again assign themselves an easy task and a stranger a difficult one. But before judging the fairness of their actions, they had to memorize seven numbers. This tactic keeps the brain´s thinking regions too tied up to think much about anything else, and it worked:hypocrisy vanished. People judged their own (selfish) behavior as harshly as they did others´, strong evidence that moral hypocrisy requires a high-order cognitive process. When the thinking part of the brain is otherwise engaged,we´re left with gut-level reactions, and we intuitively and equally condemn bad behavior by ourselves as well as others.

If our gut knows when we have erred and judges our misbehaviors harshly, moral hypocrisy might not be as inevitable as if it were the child of emotions and instincts, which are tougher to change than thinking. "Since it´s a cognitive process, we have volitional control over it," argues De Steno. The way to change hearts and minds is to focus on the former: appealing to our better angels in the brain´s emotion areas, and tell circuits that are going through cognitivedistortions to excuse ourselves what we condemn in others to just shut up.

{TS} According to Paragraph 1, brain imaging is proof of_______________.

A、emotional basis of moral judgments

B、reason-driven hypocrisy

C、emotion-driven hypocrisy

D、the Enlightenment notion

33、De Steno attributes the subjects´ behaviors to the fact that they_______________.

A、have reasoned that hypocrisy is beneficial

B、are self-centered

C、have realized that it costs to be moral

D、are insensitive to misbehaviors

34、The conclusion drawn from the first experiment is that _______________.

A、people are hypocritical in nature

B、people like picking faults of others

C、people demand both benefits and reputation

D、people cannot determine the validity of hypocrisy

35、According to DeSteno, moral hypocrisy _______________.

A、is inevitable

B、can be harnessed by will

C、is by instinctive reaction

D、is proof the Enlightenment notion

36、根据以下材料，回答{TSE}题

Fread´s most famous pupil is Carl Gustav Jung, a Swiss physician, psychiatrist, philosopher and psychologist. Selecting Jung as his favorite "son," Freud appointed him his successor. Moreover, toward the end of their seven-years,teacher-disciple relationship, Jung prophetically wrote to Freud, quoting from Nietzsche´s Thus Spake Zarathustra, "One repays a teacher badly if one retains only a pupil."
A year later, the pupil broke off his master and eventually became one of the leading forces in the psychoanalytic movement.

Jung s dissatisfaction with Freudian psychoanalysis arises from theoretical differences with Freud concerning on the interpretation of dreams and the model of the human psyche. According to Freud, all human behavior, including dreams,is fundamentally sexual therefore it is driven by an individual´s sexual energy or libido. Freud interpreted dreams almost exclusively in sexual terms, liking most of them to the Oedipus or Electra complexes.

Jung disagreed with Freud´s basic premise that all human behavior is sexual driven; more than sexual imagery, Jung argued, appears in dreams. In his work, Jung asserts that dreams include mythological images as well as sexual ones. Jung´s new idea caused him to be banished from the psychoanalytic community for a few years.

During this time,however, he formulated his own model of the human psyche, which would become most important contribution to psychology and literary criticism.

46、Nowadays, people tend to break the traditional absolute authority of teachers and grant students more freedom, which makes the classroom more liberal and democratic. In some pilot programmes , teachers´ salaries are linked with students´ evaluation. If a teacher fails in the students´ evaluation, his or her salary will be hurt.Some people applaud this new practice, thinking that it would improve the teaching quality. Others, however, disagree with it, because it may mislead teachers to please their students. What is your opinion?

Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
