This is a period of dramatic cha

16、nge that led England to the summit of development as a powerful nation. The rising bourgeoisie were getting political importance as well as wealth. England became the worlds workshop and London the worlds bank. London became the center of Western civilization. Literacy increased as the masses starte

17、d to be educated and started to think for themselves. This stage has got ready for the coming of the Golden Age of the English novel. The Early Period of Victorian Age With the rapid economic development, the early years of the Victorian age was a stage of serious social problem. Social issues espec

18、ially about industrialization and urbanization were reflected and dealt with mostly in literature. English critical realism of the 19th century flourished in the forties which described with much vividness and great artistic skill and criticized the capitalist system. The greatest of the entire Vict

19、orian age was Charles Dickens. Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights, which were written by the Bronte Sisters, emerged in 1847 as women novels. Jane Eyre represents womens fights for their equal rights and independence. Wuthering Heights caught the emotional needs of human beings in a time of rapid indus

20、trialization. William Makepeace Thackeray is best known for his Vanity Fair. While Dickens criticized the inhuman social institutions and the corrupted government in a direct way, Thackeray leveled his criticism at the moral standard that made up the money-minded society. The Mid-Victorian Age The M

21、id-Victorian Age was a stage of economic development. The English critical realists not only gave a satirical portrayal of the bourgeoisie and the ruling classes, but also showed sympathy for the common people. There is a great deal of the use of humor and satire in the English realistic novels, whi

22、ch is marked by intensifying pessimism. David Copperfield(18491850)is most autobiographical of all Dickens works. The Great Expectations of Dickens is the greatest and most sophisticated novel which is written in a semi-autobiographical style about a young man who learns through rise and fall to dis

23、card his own snobbishness. Hard Times(1854)has an ironic title, as the main characters are rich factory owners and it is just their workers who have to suffer the “ hard times“. The Late Victorian Age The Late Victorian Age was not a simple development of mid-Victorian confidence and prosperity. The

24、 establishment of the British Empire was claimed when Queen Victoria became Empress of India in 1876, but a sharp decline had already come in the beginning from the 1870s. The last quarter of the 19th century witnessed not only the decline of the British Empire but also the breakdown of Victorian va

25、lue standards. Thomas Hardy was the main novelist of this period, and his novels show readers the losing struggle of individuals against the obscure power. But the critical realists did not find a way to eradicate social evils and a good solution to the social contradictions.Questions 56 to 60 Compl

28、oubtedly “language acquisition“. But what does this term mean? What exactly is “language acquisition“? For the moment we may characterize it as the process by which individuals “pick up“ a language through exposure to it. There are two immediately obvious sorts of language acquisition. The first is

29、L1(first language)acquisition, which every normal child manages at an early age. The second is FL(foreign language)acquisition where someone, a child or an adult, picks up a language, for example, while they are living in a target language country. Chomskys ideas stimulated the interest in L1(and, i

30、ndirectly, FL)acquisition that there has been over the past few decades. For him, L1 acquisition is a conundrum, even a miracle. The big question is: how is it that the very young child, so poorly developed in many areas, is able to learn the rudiments of their native language so quickly and so succ

31、essfully? Chomskys answer was that the individual has a machine in the head, an LAD(Language Acquisition Device), that does the job for them. The words “quickly and successfully“ hold the key to one of the main reasons why applied linguists are interested in the acquisition idea. In an important art

32、icle that appeared in 1968, Newmark and Reibel make the point that L1 acquisition is the quickest and most successful instance of language mastery that we know of. Since this is so, we might do well to study in some detail what is known about the L1 acquisition situation. What does the child do that

33、 makes acquisition so quick and successful? How do the adults who talk to the child behave? What assistance do they give to the acquisition process? What are the important aspects of the acquisition environment? Notice that though one of these questions is about the “organism“ , the others are about

34、 the “environment“ . This indicates that we are prepared to consider a role for the latter beyond that suggested by Chomsky. The applied linguist Stephen Krashen is one of those largely responsible for interest in foreign language acquisition. In fact he argues that there are two quite distinct ways

35、 of mastering an FL, and he calls these acquisitions and learning. Acquisition first: he describes this process as a “ natural“ , subconscious one, where there is no “conscious focusing on linguistic forms“(of the sort that you find in most classrooms). It is what we have already informally called t

36、he process of “ picking up “ a language, just as you do if you go and live in the target language environment. Indeed Krashen says that the minimal condition for acquisition to occur is “ participation in natural communication situations“. Learning, on the other hand, is a conscious process, and it

37、usually takes place in the language classroom. For Krashen it is particularly marked by two characteristics. Firstly, there is error correction. When learners make mistakes, it is normal for the classroom teacher to draw explicit attention to them, and to correct the errors. The second characteristi

38、c is what Krashen calls rule isolation. In the language teaching classroom it is normal for a lesson(or part thereof)to focus on one language point. It may be a grammatical item like a particular tense, or a pronunciation point, or some “rule of use“. The word isolation indicates that in this proced

39、ure language points are dealt with one by one.

41、1:_25.Section D_Most works of art are kept indoors, in a gallery, private home, office building, or museum. One category of artwork, fashioned to be on display outdoors, defies such cloistering.

In recent decades, most supporters of public art have advocated a two-way relationship, in which the people of a community should shape public art as well. （分数：10.00）填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_填空项 1:_四、Translation(总题数：5，分数：12.00)27.Part Translation_28.Sectio
