9、n on the map. As a word it has existed since the 1960s, but the protests against this allegedly new process, which its opponents condemn as a way of ordering people“s lives, brought globalization out of the financial and academic worlds and into everyday current affairs. In the late 1980s and early
10、1990s, the business model called the “globalize“ financial market came to be seen as an entity that could have more than just an economic impact on the parts of the world it touched. Globalization came to be seen as more than simply a way of doing business, or running financial marketsit became a pr
11、ocess. From then on the word took on a life of its own. So how does the globalize market work? It is modern communications that make it possible; for the British service sector to deal with its customers through a call centre in India, or for a sportswear (运动服) manufacturer to design its products in
12、 Europe, make them in southeast Asia and sell them in north America. But this is where the anti-globalization side gets stuck in (关注). If these practices replace domestic economic life with an economy that is heavily influenced or controlled from overseas. Then the creation of a globalize economic m
13、odel and the process of globalization can also be seen as a surrender of power to the corporations, or a means of keeping poorer nations in their place. Not everyone agrees that globalization is necessarily evil, or that globalize corporations are running the lives of individuals or are more powerfu
14、l than nations. Some say that the spread of globalization, free markets and free trade into the developing world is the best way to beat poverty the only problem is that free markets and free trade do not yet truly exist. Globalization can be seen as a positive, negative or even marginal process. An
15、d regardless of whether it works for good or ill, globalization“s exact meaning will continue to be the subject of debate among those who oppose, support or simply observe it.（分数：7.00）(1).Globalization is a term used only in the financial and academic worlds.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(2)

He slapped his hand down on the table. “When
19、 I“ve finished in two hours“ time, your work will be far more effective and productive. Anyone not interested, leave now.“ The entire room sat still. 2. Robinson calls himself the Mind Magician (魔术师). He specializes in doing magic tricks that look totally impossible, and then he reveals that they in
20、volve nothing more mysterious than good old-fashioned trickery (骗术). “I have always been interested in tricks involving memory being able to reel off (一口气说出) the order of cards in a pack, that sort of thing.“ he explains. 3. Robinson was already lecturing to schools on his magic techniques when it s
21、truck him that students might find memory techniques even more valuable. “It wasn“t difficult area to move into, as the stuff“s all there in books.“ So he summarized everything to make a two-hour lecture about five techniques. 4. “You want to learn a list of a hundred things? A thousand? No problem.
22、“ says Robinson. The scandal is that every child is not taught the techniques from the beginning of their school life. The schoolchildren who were watching him thought it was brilliant. “I wish I“d been told this earlier,“ commented Mark, after Robinson had shown them how to construct “mental journe
23、ys“ 5. Essentially, you visualize (想象) a walk down a street, or a trip round a room, and pick the points where you will put the things you want to remember the lamppost, the fruit bowl. Then in each location you put a visual representation of your list-phrasal verbs, historical dates, whatever makin
24、g them as strange as possible. It is that simple, and it works. 6. The reaction of schools has been uniformly enthusiastic. “The pupils benefited enormously from lan“s presentation,“ says Dr Johnston, head of the school where Robinson was speaking, “ideally we should run a regular class in memory te
25、chniques so pupils can pick it up gradually.“（分数：8.00）(1).Paragraph 2 1. A. Good results B. An ancient skill C. Gaining attention D. Memory tricks E. A lecture on memory techniques F.

Outsourcing i
28、s certainly a big part of the picture. As Stephen Roach, a famous economist, has noted, private-sector hiring in the current recovery is roughly 7 million jobs shy of what would have been the norm in previous recoveries and U.S. corporations, high-tech as well as low-tech, are busily hiring employee
29、s from lower-wage nation instead of from our own. The jobless rate among U.S. software engineers, for instance, has doubled over the past three years. In Bangalore, India, where American companies are on a huge hiring spree for the kind of talent they used to scoop up in Silicon Valley, the starting
30、 annual salary for top electrical engineering graduates, says Business Week, is $10,000 compared with $80,000 here in the States. Tell that to a software writer in Palo Alto and she“s not likely to up her boss for a raise. That software writer certainly doesn“t belong to a union, either. Indeed, the
31、 current recovery is not only the first to take place in all economy in which global wage rates are a factor, but the first since before the New Deal to take place in an economy in which the rate of private-sector unionization is in single digits just 3.5 percent of the workforce. The current admini
32、stration is not responsible for the broad contours of this miserably misshapen recovery, but its every action merely increases the imbalance of power between America“s employers and employees. But the Democrats“ prescriptions for more broadly shared prosperity need some tweaking, too. With the globa
33、lization of high-end professions, no Democrat can assert quite so confidently the line that Bill Clinton used so often: What you earn is a result of what you learn. This year“s crop of presidential candidates is taking more seriously the importance of labor standards in trade accords, and the right
34、of workers to organize. But they“ve got a way to go to make the issue of stagnating incomes into the kind of battle crying it should be in the campaign against Bush. If they“re not up to it, I say we out source them all and bring in some pools from Bangalore.（分数：15.00）(1).Which of the following migh
35、t have contributed to the current miserably misshapen recovery in the U.S.?（分数：3.00）A.The New Deal.B.The globalization of economy.C.The economic policies adopted by the Bush administration.D.S. workers are no longer capable of sharing the increase of nation“s income.(2).The unemployment rate has bee
36、n on the rise among U.S. software workers mainly because of（分数：3.00）A.outsourcingB.the cheap supply of top electrical engineering graduates in IndiaC.the low starting salary for the software workers in IndiaD.the low unionization rate among software writers in the U.S(3).It seems that the author is
37、against（分数：3.00）A.the Bush administrationB.the Clinton administrationC.the decreased power of America“s employeesD.more broadly shared prosperity(4).The author believes that _.（分数：3.00）A.Democrats can help U.S. workers to increase their incomesB.Bill Clinton pays more attention to U.S. workers“ bene

39、数：15.00)Alpha ParticleFrom decaying radon (氡) atoms can destroy the living cells they strike and increase the likelihood that those cells will later become cancerous. Researchers have now directly demonstrated that neighboring cells not suffering direct hits can be harmed, too. They“ve also taken a
40、step toward showing how this type of radiation, called alpha particles, indirectly hurts those bystanders. Radon derives from the decay of uranium (铀) and seeps naturally into the air from the ground. It“s the primary environmental source of alpha particles, which contribute to cancer risk by causin
41、g aberrations (失常) in DNA. Alpha particles from inhaled radon are second only to smoking as a cause of lung cancer. Because a person“s exposure to alpha particles typically is low, researchers have had to estimate public health threats from radon by guess from the effects of higher doses of alpha ra
42、diation. Such data comes primarily from studies of survivors of the atomic bombs that destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. The customary extrapolation (推测) assumes that cancer risk is proportional to the dose of radiation even at low doses. Radiation“s effects in cell cultures don“t necessaril
43、y reflect what happens in “a whole organism, with its full range of defense repair mechanisms,“ says Duport. Processes such as DNA repair and cell death triggered by radiation damage could cancel the effect on, by stander cells observed in the lab, he suggests. Furthermore, while a bystander effect
44、can contribute to cancer, other cell-to-cell interactions in living tissue “may relieve increased risk.“ says Barry Michael, a radiation biophysicist at the Gray Cancer Institute in Northwood, England. One of these interactions halts cell division and hence cancer. “The jury is still out on whether
45、cell-to-cell effects lead to a greater or lower risk,“ Michael says.（分数：15.00）(1).The passage“s main topic is _.（分数：3.00）A.The experiment done by researchersB.Uranium is the key killer of neighboring cellsC.Cell-to-cell interaction can make up for the hurt cellsD.Bystander cells can be indirectly da

47、pensate for the abnormal DNA.C.High dosage and low dosage of them have the same effect on people“s health.D.Their effect can“t be found immediately.(4).How do the researchers conduct the study? A. By studying the data got from the survivors who had experienced atomic radiation. B. By carrying out th
48、e experiments in the lab. C. By studying the features of radon and uranium.（分数：3.00）A.B.C.D.(5).From the passage, We can know the tone of the author is _.（分数：3.00）A.argumentativeB.factualC.conjectural (推测的)D.authoritative七、第三篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)NanotechnologyMany of the grand challenges of today and th
49、e future are found in the question: “How are we going to solve the problems and make serious improvements in industrial manufacturing, disease control, environmental pollution control, global climate change, food production, transportation, communication, and others?“ Nanotechnology (纳米技术) promises to make revolutionary contributions. Within the next few years we can expect to see major improvements. Here are some possibilities the things to come. Nanotechnology is fundamentally changing the way materials and devices will be produced in the future. Nanostructures, cer
