20、der a necessity to have fellowship with those of his own kind, but furnished him also with language, which was to be the great instrument and common tie of society. Man, therefore, had by nature his organs so fashioned, as to be fit to frame articulate sounds, which we call words. But this was not e

21、nough to produce language; for parrots, and several other birds, will be taught to make articulate sounds distance enough, which yet by no means are capable of language.Questions:（分数：4.00）(1).The word articulate can be understood as_.（分数：2.00）A.discreteB.fuzzyC.easy to understandD.difficult to under

33、.both A and BD.out of neglectToday the functions of theory and observation are divided into two distinct communities in physics. Both experiments and theories are much more complex than back in Newtons time. Theorists are exploring areas of Nature in mathematics that technology so far does not allow

34、 us to observe in experiments. Many of the theoretical physicists who are alive today may not live to see how the real Nature compares with the mathematical description in their work. Todays theorists have to learn to live with ambiguity and uncertainty in their mission to describe Nature using math

35、.Questions:（分数：8.00）(1).According to the passage, todays experiments and theories in physics are_.（分数：2.00）A.less certain than beforeB.more certain than beforeC.ascertain as beforeD.less complex than before(2).From this passage you can infer that mathematics_.（分数：2.00）A.is powerful all the timeB.may

38、competition and decentralized initiatives. The task ahead is vast and delicate, but the objective is not to start from scratch again and build a completely new regulatory framework. Fortunately for the regulator, most of the existing regulations remain relevant.Questions:（分数：6.00）(1).According to th

39、e passage, todays business environment calls for_.（分数：2.00）A.new regulationsB.more powerful government administrationC.more subsidiesD.more protectionism(2).From this passage you can infer that_.（分数：2.00）A.a completely new regulatory framework needs to be builtB.a completely new regulatory framework

41、objective but remain free to choose any means. This method is more and more often used in the United States. It meets the American “institutional idea“ namely it limits the role of government as much as possible, and is conceptually backed by simple argumentation: only business is flexible enough to

42、 adapt to a rapidly evolving, unpredictable environment. For this reason, business is ready to take responsibility, in order to avoid binding regulations; government regards business as being capable of more flexibility and efficiency; and the American public doesnt find anything unusual in such a d

43、eal.Questions:（分数：8.00）(1).According to the passage,_.（分数：2.00）A.private actors are constrained with means set up by the governmentB.government has more and more authorityC.business has more autonomyD.government is not efficient(2).From this passage you can infer that_.（分数：2.00）A.the United States i

S. Ambassador to the United Nations, John Bolton, ha

46、s resigned. Analysts say Bolton was unable to satisfy Senate opponents, who were concerned he would pursue a unilateral U. S. foreign policy. And his post became even more tenuous after Democrats took control of Congress in November elections. Bolton had a history of angering diplomats and colleague

47、s in his previous State Department job. And he could not gain sufficient support from the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to stay on. He is to leave the U. N. post when the current session of the U. S. Congress ends, possible at the end of the week. Bush appointed Bolton in August 2005 to reform the world body. But Bolton is leaving at a time when U. S. foreign policy is fraught with global challenges.Questions:（分数：6.00）(1).Why has John Bolton resigned?（分数：2.00）_(2).Why did Bush appoint Bolton as Ambassador to the United Nations?（分数：2.00）_
