12、 一、 Section II Use of English (15 minutes) Directions: Read the following text and fill each of the numbered spaces with ONE suitable word. Write your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 30 The most obvious purpose of advertising is to inform the consumer of available products or services. The second (31) _

13、is to sell the product. The second purpose might be more important to the manufacturers than the(32) _. The manufacturers go beyond only telling consumers about their products. They also try to persuade customers to buy the (33) _ by creating a desire (34) _ it. Because of advertisement, consumers t

14、hink that they want something that they do not need. After buying something, the purchaser cannot always explain why it was (35)_. Even (36) _the purchaser probably does not know why he or she bought something, the manufactures (37) _. Manufacturers have analyzed the business of (38)_ and buying. Th

15、ey know all the different motives that influence a consumers purchase some rational and (39) _ emotional. Furthermore, they take advantage of this (40) _. Why (41) _ so many products displayed at the checkout counters in grocery stores? The store management has some good (42) _. By the time the cust

16、omer is (43) _ to pay for a purchase, he or she has already made rational, thought - out decisions (44) _ what he or she needs and wants to buy. The (45) _ feels that he or she has done a good job of choosing the items. The shopper is especially vulnerable at this point. The (46) _ of candy, chewing

17、 gum, and magazines are very attractive. They persuade the purchaser to buy something for emotional, not (47) _ motives.

18、tly (49) the store and the manufacturer hope that the customer will (50) _. The customer follows their plan. Part A Directions: Read the following texts and answer the questions which accompany them by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on ANSWER SHEET 1. 50 The success or failure of a case of

19、ten hinges on an organizing principle known as a case theme. For example, the case theme in the trial of Erik and Lyle Menendez, two brothers accused of murdering their parents, was “the abuse excuse“. The brothers should be excused because they had been severely abused. A primary case theme of the

20、0. J. Simpson defense was “the police messed up and planted evidence“. Themes are simple, brief (one sentence!) statements that capture the essence of your argument. You control the lens through which the facts will be viewed. For a trial lawyer, this is absolutely critical. If the lawyer fails to e

21、stablish a case theme, he or she gives opposing counsel the advantage. Or even worse, the listeners, or those you are trying to persuade, will adopt the theme suggested to them by your adversary. Whoever controls the definition of the case is inevitably the one with the power. Just as a theme gives

22、the listeners a generalizing principle around which information can be organized, so too does it give you one. The great trial lawyers emphasize the need for an overall strategy as well as day-to-day tactics. A case theme embodies a lawyers overall strategy in a nutshell and helps him organize the c

23、ase so that he always stays on target. Use a theme to help you stay well and easily focused on the overall thrust of your presentation. A good case theme also greatly enhances your credibility. When you establish a succinct, easy-to-remember theme, you let people know that you have a well-defined an

24、d thought-out point of view. Such specificity adds to your perceived competence and trustworthiness. Remember: successful trial lawyers are never wishy-washy. 51 The case involving two brother killers demonstrates that_. （ A） even murders may be excused sometimes （ B） a well-defined argument can win

25、 a difficult case （ C） child abusers should be duly punished （ D） upholding justice is the most important in court 52 The message of this passage is that_. （ A） good lawyers are of critical importance in a lawsuit （ B） legal procedures sometimes may run out of control （ C） murder cases can be manipu

26、lated as people wish （ D） a well-defined focusing point is a key to win a case 53 A good case theme can prevent_. （ A） the trial lawyer from losing his or her target in defense （ B） the opposing side from forming their case theme （ C） the audience from being easily persuaded （ D） those who have powe

27、r from controlling the trial 54 An additional merit of a good case theme is that you may_. （ A） get more information （ B） control the opposing side （ C） prove your competence （ D） trust the jury and the judge 55 The last word “wishy-washy“ is closest in meaning to_. （ A） indecisive （ B） imaginative

28、（ C） inadequate （ D） illogical 55 It is almost 15 years since I first tested a mobile phone. I was covering the Live Aid concert at Wembley and it was a fiasco. My newspaper was trying a huge two-piece machine: a handset on a cradle, which went on one shoulder, and a power pack almost the weight of

29、a car battery, which went on the other. The total talk time was 30 minutes and the phone cost several thousand pounds. Oh, and it was barely possible to get a signal. Those of us with this Herculean model greatly envied our slicker colleagues who were trying out an American Motorola phone. Not only

30、did it work for up to an hour, it also looked like a housebrick. What is fascinating is that, after a long period in the social and stylistic doldrums, mobile phones or cellular radios as they should really be called are becoming fashionable again. The new Ericsson mobile phone has been acclaimed th

31、ese past few days by everyone who eyes it as one of the coolest objects of all time. It is pretty much the size of a credit card and the thickness of a chocolate bar. It vibrates discreetly when someone calls and it even recognises the owners voice, so dialing someone is as simple as saying their na

32、me. Phones have become like cars: all levels in society have them, but there are cars and there are CARS. Phones like that shiny, chrome Nokia that was all the rage a few months ago, or the Bounty bar-sized Motorola and the slim new Ericsson are the glossy, understated Audi A4s of mobiles; perilousl

33、y close to being fashion items. Wrist-watch phones could be next years big thing but the more important and less flashy development will be the emergence of the first web-browsing phones. These will make it possible both to speak and surf the Internet and to deal with e-mails in a bar, on the train

34、or wherever. Another big development which will take off in the next few months concerns not the phones so much as the kind of enhanced services available through them. While the ultra-thin Ericsson has a voice-dialling system, theres still a limit to the fancy stuff you can cram into a breastpocket

35、 telephone. Theres no such limit, however, to what the mainframe computers at mobile phone companies can do. 56 The word “fiasco“ (para. 1) most probably means_. （ A） a great surprise （ B） an unpleasant event （ C） a wonderful thing （ D） a stiff competition 57 Which of the following is NOT true of th

36、e new Ericsson mobile phone? （ A） It is very small. （ B） It vibrates gently. （ C） It can connect you to someone if you just say his phone number. （ D） It can recognize the caller through his voice. 58 Which of the following can be inferred about Audi A4 cars? （ A） They are equipped with mobile phone

37、s. （ B） They are available to all levels of society. （ C） They are very fashionable. （ D） They will soon be replaced by newer models. 59 According to the passage, what is the drawback of breast pocket phones? （ A） They are fragile and easily damaged. （ B） The information stored is limited. （ C） They

38、 are not popular with business people. （ D） Few people can afford them. 60 All of the following products are expected to come out in the future EXCEPT_. （ A） wrist-watch phones （ B） web-browsing phones （ C） phones connected to computers （ D） voice-dialling phones 60 Most experts believe that an ever

39、-increasing number of countries and terrorist groups will gain the technical capability to acquire and use chemical and biological weapons. But use of these weapons by hostile states or terrorist groups is not inevitable. Even when locked in bloody conventional wars, nations that have considered usi

40、ng these weapons have generally been deterred by the risk that their opponents would retaliate in the same way or escalate the conflict elsewhere. Terrorist groups with the technical capacity to acquire and use a chemical or biological weapon have typically lacked an interest in doing so, while grou

41、ps interested in such weapons have generally lacked the necessary technical skills. Assessing future threats, however, involves more than simple extrapolation from past trends. In the case of chemical and biological weapons, it appears that the likelihood of use by both hostile states and terrorist

42、groups is growing, and it is clear that even one such attack against an unprotected population could be devastating. Ironically, some experts believe that the technological superiority of the U. S. armed forces is heightening the long-term risks of chemical and biological weapon use by states that w

43、ish to challenge the international status quo through aggression. Hostile states that hope to have a fighting chance against a U. S. led military coalition, such as the one that defeated Iraq in 1991, may search for ways to compensate for the inferiority of their own conventional military forces. An

44、 obvious answer, and one of grave concern to U. S. military planners, is that such states might turn to an unconventional arsenal, most importantly chemical and biological weapons. The threat of CBW use by terrorists is of an entirely different character. Terrorists have almost always chosen to kill

45、 fewer people than they are able to kill. The main reason is that traditional terrorist strategies seek to draw international attention to a cause without excessively antagonizing public opinion. For a variety of reasons this traditional model of terrorism appears to be changing in ways that make fu

46、ture acts of CBW terrorism more likely. Some terrorist groups appear to be increasingly interested in causing massive casualties, a phenomenon that may stem from a rise in religiously inspired acts of violence, the emergence of new, more fluid terrorist cells, and the perception that traditional, lo

47、w-casualty terrorist acts have lost the capacity to focus public attention. To date only the Japanese cult Aum Shinrikyo has combined the technical capability with the lethal intent required to carry out an act of CBW terrorism. But national security experts are increasingly concerned that more host

48、ile groups will follow Aum s precedent and will do so with greater effectiveness than the cult displayed. 61 What is the main topic of this passage? （ A） The history of chemical and biological weapons. （ B） Terrorists and chemical and biological weapons. （ C） Conventional and unconventional wars. （

49、D） The use of chemical and biological weapons. 62 Which of the following words best describes the tone of this passage? （ A） Argumentative. （ B） Imaginative. （ C） Objective. （ D） Negative. 63 What is the main reason that some terrorists chose to kill a lot of people? （ A） They want to call more public attention. （ B） They have the chemical and biological weapons. （ C） They dont want to loathed by the public. （ D） They are Aum followers. 64
