2008英語專業(yè)8級考試全真試卷

前言

　　2004年新版《高校英語專業(yè)八級考試大綱》規(guī)定，高校英語專業(yè)八級考試（TEM8）的目的是全面檢查已完成英語專業(yè)高年級階段課程的學(xué)生是否達(dá)到了教學(xué)大綱所規(guī)定的英語語言綜合運(yùn)用能力標(biāo)準(zhǔn)以及英語專業(yè)知識要求。由于考查的詞匯量在10000單詞左右，遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)超出大學(xué)英語詞匯量和日常生活英語詞匯的范圍，這項(xiàng)考試不僅是英語專業(yè)學(xué)子自我檢測英語水平的權(quán)威杠桿和獲許畢業(yè)必須參加的考試，同時(shí)也是其他非英語專業(yè)學(xué)習(xí)者證明自己能力的考試選擇之一。　　2004年新版考試大綱指出，TEM8要做較大程度的調(diào)整，主要是難度和題型的變化。這就要求考生在復(fù)習(xí)中清楚理解新的命題趨勢，準(zhǔn)確把握最新的題型變化，相對熟悉新的考查方向，才能在考試中取得優(yōu)異成績。但現(xiàn)在市面上大部分的專業(yè)練習(xí)材料普遍沒有反映出大綱的變化，也不能給考生帶來顯著的練習(xí)效果。　　為了幫助考生在復(fù)習(xí)中把握新的命題趨勢，做好充分的考試準(zhǔn)備，本書緊扣最新考試大綱，順應(yīng)廣大讀者的要求，整理了2000～2009年10套全真八級試題以饗讀者。TEM8作為一項(xiàng)全國性的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)參照類考試，難度有一定的延續(xù)性，全真考題的效度和信度是不言而喻的。平時(shí)的練習(xí)資料難以望其項(xiàng)背，所以可稱為考生應(yīng)試的必備工具?？忌鷤冎g流傳著的“一套全真題趕得上10套模擬題”，“全真閱讀可以作精讀”都是這個(gè)道理。通過真題考生可以清晰地把握命題脈絡(luò)，感知實(shí)戰(zhàn)氣氛，取得立竿見影的效果?！　⊥瑫r(shí)，我們邀請了一批知名高校英語專業(yè)的專家教授，在對答案作出權(quán)威精當(dāng)?shù)狞c(diǎn)評解析、詳盡闡述各題型的命題特點(diǎn)、全面講解涉及的考點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)的同時(shí)，對新的命題變化作了認(rèn)真分析，對新的考試動(dòng)態(tài)進(jìn)行了合理預(yù)測，并根據(jù)新大綱對2000-2004年舊題型進(jìn)行改造，刪除不考題型，補(bǔ)充新考題型，改造原有題型，同時(shí)總結(jié)應(yīng)試做題規(guī)律，從而可以切實(shí)有效地幫助考生提高自己的綜合水平。為了幫助考生更透徹地理解文意，我們還對所有閱讀文章進(jìn)行全文翻譯。另外，我們在每套試卷答案講解部分之后，將閱讀中出現(xiàn)的偏僻、疑難單詞一一列出，給出音標(biāo)、釋義和用法舉例，對于不在專業(yè)八級考試大綱上的超綱詞特別加上“*”標(biāo)識，使讀者能一目了然?！　∠Ｍ@套我們精心編寫的英語專業(yè)八級全真試卷，能幫助考生迅速強(qiáng)化實(shí)戰(zhàn)能力，在考試中取得優(yōu)異成績。書中并附有2004年新版考試大綱總則。　　內(nèi)容雖經(jīng)反復(fù)審讀，仍不免有疏漏之處，望廣大讀者來信來電指正。

章節(jié)摘錄

　　Getting to the heart of Kuwaiti democracy seems hilariously easy. Armed only with a dog-eared NEWSWEEK ID,I ambled through the gates of the National Assemhly last week. Unscanned, unsearched,my satchel could easily have held the odd grenade or an anthrax-stuffed lunchbox. The only person who stopped me was a guard who grinned and invited me to take a swig of orange juice from his plastic bottle.　　Were I a Kuwaiti woman wielding a ballot, I would have been a clearer and more present danger.That very day Parliament blocked a bill giving women the vote;29 M. P. s voted in favour and 29 against,with two abstentions. Unable to decide whether the bill had passed or not, the government scheduled another vote in two weeks——too late for women to register for Junes municipal elections. The next such elections arent until 2009.　　Inside the elegant,marbled Parliament itself, a sea of mustachioed men in white robes sat in green seats, debating furiously. The ruling emir has pushed for womens political rights for years ; ironically,the democratically elected legislature has thwarted him. Traditionalists and tribal leaders are opposed. Liberals fret,too, that lslamists will let their multiple wives vote, swelling conservative ranks. "When I came to Parliament today, people who voted yes didnt even shake hands with me," said one Shia cleric. "Why cant we respect each other and work together？"　　Why not indeed？ By Gulf standards, Kuwait is a democratic superstar. Its citizens enjoy free speech （as long as they dont insult their emir, naturally ） and boast a Parliament that can actually pass laws.Unlike their Saudi sisters, Kuwaiti women drive, work and travel freely. They run multibillion-dollar businesses and serve as ambassadors. Their academic success is such that colleges have actually lowered the grades required for male students to get into medical and engineering courses. Even then, 70 percent of university students are females.　　In Kuwait, the Western obsession with the higab finds its equivalent. At a fancy party for NEWSWEEKs Arabic edition, some Kuwaiti women wore them. Others opted for tight, spangled, sheer little numbers in peacock blue or parrot orange. For the partys entertainment, Nancy Ajram, the Arab worlds answer to Britney Spears, sang passionate songs of love in a white mini-dress. She couldnt dance for us,alas,since shaking ones body onstage is illegal in Kuwait. That didnt stop whole tables of men from raising their camera-enabled mobile phones and clicking her picture.　　Youd think not being able to vote or dance in public would anger Kuwaits younger generation of women. To find out, I headed to the malls——Kuwaits archipelago of civic freedom. Eager to duck strict parents and the social taboos of dating in public,young Kuwaitis have taken to cafes, beaming flirtatious infrared e-mails to one another on their cell phones. At Starbucks in the glittering A1 Sharq Mall, I found only tables of men,puffing cigarettes and grumbling about the service. At Pizza Hut, I thought Id got an answer after encountering a young woman who looked every inch the modern suffragette——drainpipe jeans, strappy sliver high-heeled sandals and a higab studded with purple rhinestones. But, no, Mariam AlEnizi,20,studying business administration at Kuwait University, doesnt think women need the vote."Men are better at politics than women, "she explained, adding that women in Kuwait already have everything they need. Welcome to democracy. Kuwaiti style.　　Richard, King of England from 1189 to 1199, with all his characteristic virtues and faults cast in a heroic mould,is one of the most fascinating medieval figures. He has been described as the creature and embodiment of the age of chivalry. In those days the lion was much admired in heraldry,and more than one king sought to link himself with its repute. When Richards contemporaries called him "Coeur de Lion" （The Lionheart）, they paid a lasting compliment to the king of beasts. Little did the English people owe him for his services,and heavily did they pay for his adventures. He was in England only twice for a few short months in his ten years reign; yet his memory has always stirred English hearts, and seems to present throughout the centuries the pattern of the fighting man. In all deeds of prowess as well as in large schemes of war Richard shone. He was tall and delicately shaped;strong in nerve and sinew, and most dextrous in arms. He rejoiced in personal combat,and regarded his opponents without malice as necessary agents in his htme. He loved war,not so much for the sake of glory or political ends,but as other men love science or poetry, for the excitement of the struggle and the glow of victory. By this his whole temperament was toned;and united with the highest qualities of the military commander, love of war called forth all the powers of his mind and body.　　Although a man of blood and violence, Richard was too impetuous to be either treacherous or habitually cruel. He was as ready to forgive as he was hasty to offend;he was open-handed and munificent to profusion;in war circumspect in design and skilful in execution;in politics a child,lacking in subtlety and experience. His political alliances were formed upon his likes and dislikes; his political schemes had neither unity nor clearness of purpose. The advantages gained for him by military genius were flung away through diplomatic ineptitude. When,on the journey to the East, Messina in Sicily was won by his arms he was easily persuaded to share with his polished, faithless ally, Philip Augustus, fruits of a victory which more wisely used might have foiled the French Kings artful schemes. The rich and tenable acquisition of Cyprus was cast away even more easily than it was won. His life was one magnificent parade,which, when ended, left only an empty plain.　　In 1199 ,when the difficulties of raising revenue for the endless war were at their height, good news was brought to King Richard. It was said there had been dug up near the castle of Chaluz,on the lands of one of his French vassals,a treasure of wonderful quality;a group of golden images of an emperor, his wife,sons and daughters, seated round a table, also of gold, had been unearthed. The King claimed this treasure as lord paramount. The lord of Chaluz resisted the demand,and the King laid siege to his small,weak castle. On the third day, as he rode daringly near the wall, confident in his hard-tried luck,a bolt from a crossbow struck him in the left shoulder by the neck. The wound,already deep, was aggravated by the necessary cutting out of the arrow-head,Gangrene set in,and Coeur de Lion knew that he must pay a soldiers debt. He prepared for death with fortitude and calm,and in accordance with the principles he had followed. He arranged his affairs;he divided his personal belongings among his friends or bequeathed them to charity. He declared John to be his heir, and made all present swear fealty to him. He ordered the archer who had shot the fatal bolt,and who was now a prisoner, to be brought before him. He pardoned him,and madehim a gift of money. For seven years he had not confessed for fear of being compelled to be reconciled to Philip, but now he received the offices of the Church with sincere and exemplary piety, and died in the forty-second year of his age on April 6,1199,worthy, by the consent of all men,to sit with King Arthur and Roland and other heroes of martial romance at some Eternal Round Tble ,which we trust the Creator of the Universe in His comprehension will not have forgotten to provide.
