As a word it has existed since the 1960s, but the protests against this allegedly new process, which its opponents condemn as a way

7、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 1990s, the business model called the “globalized“ financial market came to be seen as an entity that could have more than just an economic impact

8、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 process. From then on the world took on a life of its own. So how does the globalized market work? It is modern communications that make it possibl

9、e; 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 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

10、 practices replace domestic economic life with an economy that is heavily influenced or controlled from overseas. Then the creation of a globalized economic model 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 th

11、eir place. Not everyone agrees that globalization is necessarily evil, or that globalized corporations are running the lives of individuals or are more powerful than nations. Some say that the spread of globalization, free markets and free trade into the developing world is the best way to beat pove

12、rtythe 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. And regardless of whether it works for good or ill, globalization“s exact meaning will continue to be the subject of debate among those who oppo

13、se, 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).Globalization can be best understood as a way of doing business.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(3).Modern communications play an impor

14、tant role in globalization.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(4).Britain has benefited quite a lot from globalization.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(5).The opponent believes that globalization will keep the poorer nations in poverty.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(6).The opponents

15、 think that globalization corporations have more power than nations.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned(7).Free markets and free trade will eventually prevail.（分数：1.00）A.RightB.WrongC.Not mentioned三、第 3 部分：概括大意与完成句子(总题数：1，分数：12.00)Ceding to Wear TiesIt“s useless. It“s dirty. It spreads disease. T

16、hat“s why the British Medical Association in the UK recently called for hospital doctors to stop wearing ties. That leads to another question. Why does anyone wear a tie? Ties serve no purpose. They do not cover any part of your body and keep you warm. They always seem to get covered in food stains.

17、 Perhaps that is the purpose of the tie. It lets everyone know what you just ate. Ties have an odd history. Soldiers from Croatia, in Eastern Europe, served as mercenaries (雇佣军) in various conflicts in the 17th century. They were identified by brightly colored pieces of silk worn around the neck. Kn

18、own as cravats (围巾), these became a popular fashion item in France and eventually evolved into the tie. It“s an interesting story, but it doesn“t tell us why men want to put useless pieces of cloth or silk around their necks. The answer seems to be about identification (身份证明). In the 19th-century Br

19、itain, ties were used by universities, military regiments (团), sports clubs, schools and gentleman“s clubs. Each tie was in a particular set of colors which identified the wearer as a member of that organization. Wearing ties was also the mark of Britain“s most powerful classes. That made the tie it

20、self a symbol of power and respect. And that led it to be adopted by a much larger classthe business class. You cannot wear a tie if you work with machinery, so wearing a tie became a sign that you were a man who used his brain to make a living, rather than his hands. It showed you were serious. It

21、showed you were a professional. It meant that everyone who wanted a job in business had to wear one. It was just impossible to take seriously a man who did not wear a piece of colored silk around his neck. This is how millions of people came to wear ties across the world. Is there a future for ties?

22、 The signs are not promising. Many political leaders, including British Prime Minister Tony Blair, now go without ties.（分数：12.00）(1).Paragraph 2 1. A. Origin of the tie B. British ties C. Uselessness of the tie D. Old-fashioned ties E. Role of the tie F. Signs of a tieless era（分数：1.50）(2).Paragraph

25、：0，分数：0.00)五、第一篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Shopping for ClothesShopping for clothes is not the same experience for a man as it is for a woman. A man goes shopping because he needs something. His purpose is settled and decided in advance. He knows what he wants, and his objective is to find it and buy it; the p

26、rice is a secondary consideration. All men simply walk into a shop and ask the assistant for what they want. If the shop has it in stock, the salesman promptly produces it, and the business of trying it on follows at once. All being well, the deal can be and often is completed in less than five minu

27、tes, with hardly any chat and to everyone“s satisfaction. For a man, slight problems may begin when the shop doesn“t have what he wants. In that case the salesman, as the name implies, tries to sell the customer something else, he offers the nearest he can to the article required. No good salesman b

28、rings out such a substitute impolitely; he does so with skill: “I know this jacket is not the style you want, sir, but would you like to try it for size? It happens to be the color you mentioned.“ Few men have patience with this treatment, and the usual response is: “This is the right color and may

29、be the right size, but I should be wasting my time and yours by trying it on.“ Now how does a woman go about buying clothes? In almost every respect she does so in the opposite way. Her shopping is not often based on need. She has never fully made up her mind what she wants, and she is only “having

30、a look round“. She is always open to persuasion; indeed she sets great store by what the saleswoman tells her, even by what companions tell her. She will try on any number of things. Uppermost in her mind is the thought of finding something that everyone thinks suits her. Contrary to a lot of jokes,

31、 most women have an excellent sense of value when they buy clothes. They are always on the lock-out for the unexpected bargain. Faced with a roomful of dresses, a woman may easily spend an hour going from one rail to another, to and fro, often retracing her steps, before selecting the dresses she wa

32、nts to try on. It is a laborious process, but apparently an enjoyable one. Most dress shops provide chairs for the waiting husbands.（分数：15.00）(1).According to the passage, when a man is buying clothes, _.（分数：3.00）A.he buys cheap things, regardless of qualityB.he chooses things that others introduceC

33、.he does not mind how much he has to pay for the right thingsD.he buys good quality things, so long as they are not too dear(2).What does the passage tell us about women shoppers for clothes?（分数：3.00）A.They welcome suggestions from anyone.B.Women rarely consider buying cheap clothes.C.Women often bu

34、y things without giving the matter proper thought.D.They listen to advice but never take it.(3).What does a man do when he can not get exactly what he wants?（分数：3.00）A.He buys a similar thing of the color he wants.B.He usually does not buy anything.C.At least two of his requirements must be met befo

35、re he buys.D.So long as the style is right, he buys the thing.(4).Many jokes make fun of women shoppers by swing that _.（分数：3.00）A.they waste money on inferior (劣质的) goodsB.they should buy only the best clothesC.they are much more sensible than menD.they think of the price of clothes and nothing els

36、e(5).What is the most obvious difference between men and women shoppers?（分数：3.00）A.The fact that men do not try clothes on in a shop.B.Women bargain for their clothes, but men do not.C.Women stand up to shop, but men sit down.D.The time they take over buying clothes.六、第二篇(总题数：1，分数：15.00)Communicatio

37、ns RevolutionCyberspace, data superhighway, multi-mediafor those who have seen the future, the linking of computers, television and telephones will change our lives forever. Yet for all the talk of a forthcoming technological utopia little attention has been given to the implications of these develo

38、pments for the poor. As with all new high technology, while the West concerns itself with the “how“, the question of “for whom“ is put aside once again. Economists are only now realizing the full extent to which the communications revolution has affected the world economy, Information technology all

39、ows the extension of trade across geographical and industrial boundaries, and transnational corporations take full advantage of it. Terms of trade, exchange and interest rates and money movements are more important than the production of goods. The electronic economy made possible by information tec

40、hnology allows the haves to increase their control on global marketswith destructive impact on the have-nots. For them the result is instability. Developing countries which rely on the production of a small range of goods for export are made to feel like small parts in the international economic mac

41、hine. As “futures“ are traded on computer screens, developing countries simply have less and less control of their destinies. So what are the options for regaining control? One alternative is for developing countries to buy in the latest computers and telecommunications themselvesso-called “developm

42、ent communications“ modernization. Yet this leads to long-term dependency and perhaps permanent constraints on developing countries“ economies. Communications technology is generally exported from the U.S., Europe or Japan l the patents, skills and ability to manufacture remain in the hands of a few

43、 industrialized countries. It is also expensive, and imported products and services must therefore be bought on creditcredit usually provided by the very countries whose companies stand to gain. Furthermore, when new technology is introduced there is often too low a level of expertise to exploit it

44、for native development. This means that while local elites, foreign communities and subsidiaries of transnational corporations may benefit, those whose lives depend on access to the information are denied by it.（分数：15.00）(1).From the passage we know that the development of high technology is in the

45、interests of _.（分数：3.00）A.the world economyB.the rich countriesC.the scientific developmentD.the elite(2).It can be inferred from the passage that _.（分数：3.00）A.the interests of the poor countries have not been given enough considerationB.the export of the poor countries should be increasedC.communic

46、ations technology in the developing countries should he modernizedD.international trade should be expanded(3).Why does the author say that the electronic economy may have a destructive impact on developing countries?（分数：3.00）A.Because it destroys the economic balance of the poor countries.B.Because

47、it inhibits the industrial growth of developing countries.C.Because it enables the developed countries to control the international market.D.Because it violates the national boundaries of the poor countries.(4).The development of modern communications technology in developing countries may _.（分数：3.0

48、0）A.force them to reduce their share of exportsB.cost them their economic independenceC.hinder their industrial productionD.cause them to lose control of their trade(5).The author“s attitude toward the communications revolution is _.（分数：3.00）A.tolerantB.indifferentC.positiveD.critical七、第三篇(总题数：1，分数：

49、15.00)第三篇 Unpredictable EarthquakeHumans are forever forgetting that they can“t control nature. Exactly 20 years ago, a Time magazine cover story announced that “scientists are on the verge of being able to predict the time, place and even the size of earthquakes.“ The people of quake-ravaged (被地震破坏的) Kobe learned last week how wrong that assertion was. None of the methods conceived two decades ago has yet to discover a uniform wanting signal that preceded all quakes, let alone any sign that would tell whether the coming temblor (地震) is mild or a kille
