        Section A

        Directions: In this section, there is a short passage with 5 questions or incomplete statements. Read the passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete the statements in the fewest possible words. Please write your answers on Answer Sheet 2

        Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.

        In face of global warming, much effort has been focused on reducing greenhouse gas emissions through a variety of strategies. But while much of the research and innovation has concentrated on finding less-polluting energy alternatives, it may be decades before clean technologies like wind and solar meet a significant portion of our energy needs.

        In the meantime, the amount of CO2 in the air is rapidly approaching the limits proposed by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). “As long as we’re consuming fossil fuels, we’re putting out CO2,”says Klaus Lackner, a geophysicist at Columbia, University” We cannot let the CO2 in the atmosphere rise indefinitely.”

        That sense of urgency has increased interest in capturing and storing CO2, which the IPCC says could provide the more than 50% reduction in emissions thought needed to reduce global warming.“We see the potential for capture and storage to play an integral role in reducing emissions,” says Kim Corley, Shell’s senior advisor of CO2 and environmental affairs. That forward thinking strategy is gaining support. The U.S. Department of Energy recently proposed putting $1 billion into a new $2.4 billion coal-burning energy plant. The plant’s carbon-capture technologies would serve as a pilot project for other new coal-burning plants.

        But what do you do with the gas once you’ve captured it? One option is to put it to new uses. Dakota Gasification of North Dakota captures CO2 at a plant that converts coal into synthetic natural gas. It then ships the gas 200 miles by pipeline to Canada, where it is pumped underground in oil recovery operations. In the Netherlands, Shell delivers CO2 to farmers who pipe it into their greenhouses, increasing their yield of fruits and vegetables.

        However, scientists say that the scale of CO2 emissions will require vast amounts of long-term storage. Some propose storing the CO2 in coal mines or liquid storage in the ocean, Shell favors storing CO2 in deep geological structures such as saline(鹽的) formations and exhausted oil and gas fields that exist throughout the world.

        Section B

        Directions: There are 2 passages in this section. Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on Answer sheet 2 with a single line through the centre.

        Passage One

        Questions 52 to 56 are based on the following passage.

        As anyone who has tried to lose weight knows, realistic goal-setting generally produces the best results. That's partially because it appears people who set realistic goals actually work more efficiently, and exert more effort, to achieve those goals.

        What's far less understood by scientists, however, are the potentially harmful effects of goal-setting.

        Newspapers relay daily accounts of goal-setting prevalent in industries and businesses up and down both Wall Street and Main Street , yet there has been surprisingly little research on how the long-trumpeted practice of setting goals may have contributed to the current economic crisis , and unethical (不道德的)behavior in general.

        “Goals are widely used and promoted as having really beneficial effects. And yet, the same motivation that can push people to exert more effort in a constructive way could also motivate people to be more likely to engage in unethical behaviors,” says Maurice Schweitzer, an associate professor at Penn’s Wharton School.

        “It turns out there’s no economic benefit to just having a goal---you just get a psychological benefit” Schweitzer says. “But in many cases, goals have economic rewards that make them more powerful.”

        A prime example Schweitzer and his colleagues cite is the 2004 collapse of energy-trading giant Enron, where managers used financial incentives to motivate salesmen to meet specific revenue goals. The problem, Schweitzer says, is the actual trades were not profitable.

        Other studies have shown that saddling employees with unrealistic goals can compel them to lie, cheat or steal. Such was the case in the early 1990s when Sears imposed a sales quota on its auto repair staff. It prompted employees to overcharge for work and to complete unnecessary repairs on a companywide basis.

        Schweitzer concedes his research runs counter to a very large body of literature that commends the many benefits of goal-setting. Advocates of the practice have taken issue with his team’s use of such evidence as news accounts to support his conclusion that goal-setting is widely over-prescribed

        In a rebuttal (反駁) paper, Dr. Edwin Locke writes:“Goal-setting is not going away. Organizations cannot thrive without being focused on their desired end results any more than an individual can thrive without goals to provide a sense of purpose.”

        But Schweitzer contends the “mounting causal evidence” linking goal-setting and harmful behavior should be studied to help spotlight issues that merit caution and further investigation. “Even a few negative effects could be so large that they outweigh many positive effects,” he says.

        “Goal-setting does help coordinate and motivate people. My idea would be to combine that with careful oversight, a strong organizational culture, and make sure the goals that you use are going to be constructive and not significantly harm the organization,” Schweitzer says.

        52. What message does the author try to convey about goal-setting?

        A) Its negative effects have long been neglected.

        B) The goal increase people’s work efficiency.

        C) Its role has been largely underestimated.

        D) The goals most people set are unrealistic.

        B) Businesses are less likely to succeed without setting realistic goals.

        C) Financial incentives ensure companies meet specific revenue goals.

        D) Goals with financial rewards have strong motivational power.

        54. How did Sears’ goal-setting affect its employees?

        A) They were obliged to work more hours to increase their sales.

        B) They competed with one another to attract more customers.

        C) They resorted to unethical practice to meet their sales quota.

        D) They improved their customer service on a companywide basis.

        55. What do advocates of goal-setting think of Schweitzer’s research?

        D) Studying goal-setting can throw more light on successful business practices.

        Passage Two

        Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

        For most of the 20th century, Asia asked itself what it could learn from the modern, innovating West. Now the question must be reversed. What can the West’s overly indebted and sluggish (經(jīng)濟(jì)滯長(zhǎng)的) nations learn from a flourishing Asia?

        Just a few decades ago, Asia’s two giants were stagnating(停滯不前) under faulty economic ideologies. However, once China began embracing free-market reforms in the 1980s, followed by India in the 1990s, both countries achieved rapid growth. Crucially, as they opened up their markets, they balanced market economy with sensible government direction. As the Indian economist Amartya Sen has wisely said, “The invisible hand of the market has often relied heavily on the visible hand of government.”

        Contrast this middle path with America and Europe, which have each gone ideologically over-board in their own ways. Since the 1980s, America has been increasingly clinging to the ideology of uncontrolled free markets and dismissing the role of government---following Ronald Regan’s idea that “government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem. “Of course, when the markets came crashing down in 2007, it was decisive government intervention that saved the day. Despite this fact, many Americans are still strongly opposed to “big government.”

        If Americans could only free themselves from their antigovernment doctrine, they would begin to see that the America’s problems are not insoluble. A few sensible federal measures could put the country back on the right path. A simple consumption tax of, say, 5% would significantly reduce the country’s huge government deficit without damaging productivity. A small gasoline tax would help free America from its dependence on oil imports and create incentives for green energy development. In the same way, a significant reduction of wasteful agricultural subsidies could also lower the deficit. But in order to take advantage of these common-sense solutions, Americans will have to put aside their own attachment to the idea of smaller government and less regulation. American politicians will have to develop the courage to follow what is taught in all American public-policy schools: that there are good taxes and bad taxes. Asian countries have embraced this wisdom, and have built sound long-term fiscal (財(cái)政的) policies as a result.

        Meanwhile, Europe has fallen prey to a different ideological trap: the belief that European governments would always have infinite resources and could continue borrowing as if there were no tomorrow. Unlike the Americans, who felt that the markets knew best, the Europeans failed to anticipate how the markets would react to their endless borrowing. Today, the European Union is creating a $580 billion fund to ward off sovereign collapse. This will buy the EU time, but it will not solve the bloc’s larger problem.

        57. What has contributed to the rapid economic growth in China and India?

        A) Copying western-style economic behavior.

        B) Heavy reliance on the hand of government.

        C) Timely reform of government at all levels.

        D) Free market plus government intervention.

        58. What does Ronald Reagan mean by saying “government is the problem” (line4, Para. 3)?

        A) Many social evils are caused by wrong government policies.

        B) Many social problems arise from government’s inefficiency.

        C) Government action is key to solving economic problems.

        D) Government regulation hinders economic development.

        59. What stopped the American economy from collapsing in 2007?

        A) Self-regulatory repair mechanisms of the free market.

        B) Cooperation between the government and businesses.

        C) Abandonment of big government by the public.

        D) Effective measures adopted by the government.

        60. What is the author’s suggestion to the American public in face of the public government deficit?

        A) They urge the government to revise its existing public policies.

        B) They develop green energy to avoid dependence on oil import.

        C) They give up the idea of smaller government and less regulation.

        D) They put up with the inevitable sharp increase of different taxes.

        61. What’s the problem with the European Union?

        A) Conservative ideology.

        B) Shrinking market.

        C) Lack of resources.

        D) Excessive borrowing.

        The impact of the internet on interpersonal communication

        范文:

        It can’t be denied that the internet is an epoch-making invention. As we entered into the age of information, it has had a great impact upon every aspects of our life, in particular, the interpersonal communication in our social life.

        On one hand, the internet can remarkably enhance the interpersonal communication among us. Firstly, it saves time and money. Without considering the transportation and the money for reception, we can realize person-to-person communication at any time we want merely by typing the message or click the "send" button on varieties of instant chatting tools. Secondly, interpersonal communication through the internet is not limited by space. As a platform for making friends, the internet provides more ways of knowing people from other parts of the world.

        On the other hand, the internet might be a burden for interpersonal communication if inappropriately used. If people obsessively rely on internet to maintain their friendship instead of meeting each other face to face, they may suffer mental problem. After all, compared with communication through the internet, it is friendly handshaking, eye contact, and smile exchanges in face-to-face encounters that means a lot to humans.

        In conclusion, we should properly use the internet in our interpersonal communication. Only by that, can we benefit from the Internet in our social life.
