Section 2 Reading Comprehension

first part

Text 1 translation

California Public Enterprise Employees Retirement Association (AARP) is the first defender of investors' rights. They regularly pick out some bad operators in the country's largest companies and include them in the annual core list of corporate governance. Wall Street, which runs 654.38 billion+053 billion under the account, listens whenever the addition, subtraction, multiplication and division association is silent. However, the largest pension fund in China has never caught a fish as big as February 16 and 16. It questioned the new york Stock Exchange and its seven member companies, accusing them of fraud, claiming that the exchange neglected its supervisory duties and allowed seven member companies to trade securities at the expense of investors.

This action is a blow to john reid, the new (temporary) chairman of new york Stock Exchange. The former chairman and CEO of Citibank only joined the exchange in September, when Richard Grasso, the long-time leader of the exchange, was forced to resign due to excessive salary.

Reed was widely criticized by the Canadian Association for adding investors and other institutional investors because of his failure to elect investor representatives to the newly elected board of directors and his failure to effectively distinguish between the supervisory function and daily operation of the exchange. The lawsuit of the Canada-China-Canada Association shows that investors' dissatisfaction has not subsided. Harrigan said: "Because Reid didn't take action, our hopes were completely dashed."

The lawsuit alleges that seven franchised member companies abused or overused trading strategies and benefited from them. These strategies, which are not illegal at present, include "penny hopping" (the franchisor intervenes in the middle of two trading orders to grab the difference), "running ahead" (trading before customers according to confidential information obtained from trading orders) and "freezing" (stabilizing the company's trading list so that the company can use its own account to trade first).

Many of the allegations in the lawsuit are based on the results of a recent investigation conducted by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (sec) on the exchange. According to the lawsuit, the Securities and Exchange Commission found in its report of June+10, 5438 that "the monitoring and investigation procedures of the exchange are seriously inadequate, including turning a blind eye to the repeated violations of the concessionaire".

The lawsuit highlights institutional investors' disappointment with the trading system, which at least needs to be updated. Steve Westley, the supervisor of California company (attending the press conference on February 16 as a director of the Association for Adding and Delisting), kept calling on NYSE to stop using franchised companies to facilitate transactions and adopt the system of publicly matching the two parties. Turn a blind eye? Westley said: "There is no reason not to use fully automated trading. Every transaction in the world is done in this way. It is time for the stock exchange to enter the 2 1 century, so as to dispel the public's doubts that there are many internal transactions that infringe on the rights and interests of investors. "

2 1. "answer" d

"Analysis" is a question of meaning. According to the first paragraph, the answer should be D.

22.answer c

"Analysis" is a matter of detail. According to the second sentence of the third paragraph, the answer is C.

23. "answer" b

"Analysis" This is a true and false question. According to the first two sentences in the fourth paragraph, the methods of the seven companies are not illegal at present, which shows that item B is wrong.

24. Answer A.

This is a detailed question, and "Westley" locked the answer at the end of the article. The NYSE's problem, in Westley's view, is that it relies too much on franchisees to conduct business, so the answer is A.

25. Answer A.

"Analysis" is a major topic. This is a piece of news. The full text tells that the Canadian China Association for Promotion and Retirement sued the NYSE in court for the rights and interests of investors. Therefore, the title of the article should be A (Investor Rights Defender). It is wrong to add complex numbers to item D, so it is excluded.

Text 2 translation

It's no exaggeration to say that multifunctional super pills can save many lives by reducing the potential harm of high cholesterol, diabetes and high blood pressure, which is also profitable for pharmaceutical companies. A pill consisting of Pfizer's hypertension drug Norway Vasc and cholesterol-lowering drug Lipitor "has great potential", said Shaojing Tong, an analyst at Mehta Partners. "One pill can be used for two purposes, which is extremely convenient".

If this drug is popularized, pharmaceutical companies will benefit a lot. Pfizer's goal is to transfer as many qualified patients as possible to this combination drug. Norvasc's patent will expire in 2007, but the company can turn it into part of the super pill, thus avoiding the loss of revenue. Sena Lund, an analyst from Cathay Financial, said that by 2007, Pfizer could earn $4.2 billion from this combination of drugs, thus making up for the loss caused by the weak sales of Lipitor. Lipitor's profit will drop to $500 million in 2007, compared with $800 million last year.

Pfizer believes that it is beneficial to treat two different but serious cardiovascular diseases with one tablet. Craig Hopkinson, director of Pfizer's dual drug treatment center, pointed out that there are 27 million patients with hypertension and high cholesterol in the United States, of which only 2% have been adequately treated. Taking a pill to treat two diseases can help more patients get proper treatment and help them get ideal treatment.

Pfizer believes that doctors will also be happy to accept this combination of drugs, because it is composed of two very mature drugs and doctors are familiar with them. However, Dr. Stanley Lockson, director of the Department of Cardiology Consulting at Stanford University Medical Center, believes that fixed-dose compound pills are "an interesting crossroads" for doctors, and doctors' training often requires them to "treat each case with caution". Combined medication is a challenge for them, because different treatments are needed for different individuals. But he also said that patients' better acceptance of drugs prompted doctors to accept and try contraceptives.

Some doctors will be skeptical. Dr. Irene Gavris, a professor of pharmacology at Boston University School of Medicine, is worried that "if you want to change the dosage of a drug in the combination, it will be difficult for you to do so". She said that she would like to give this combination to those "patients who have been taking medicine for some time", and they are unlikely to need to change the dosage.

Usually, the economy determines the trend of equilibrium. Gavris said that patients who are taking Lipitor and Luohuoxi "can cut their medical insurance costs by half" by switching to these drugs. This is very important. For example, controlling hypertension may require three or more drugs, and the economic burden of patients will increase sharply. If patients want to benefit, as Pfizer and other pharmaceutical companies claim, switching to super pills will benefit everyone.

26. "answer" b

"Analysis" is a matter of detail. According to the second paragraph of the original text, Pfizer can avoid the possible losses caused by the expiration of Novartis patents by using combination drugs. So the answer is B.

27. "answer" b

"Analysis" This is a true and false question. The third paragraph of the article talks about the benefits of super pills, but it doesn't say that it can restore the lost physical function of patients, so the answer should be B.

28.answer c

The topic of "analysis" involves the writing intention of the paragraph. The third paragraph talks about the patients' acceptance attitude towards super pills, and the fourth paragraph mainly talks about the doctors' possible acceptance attitude, so the answer is that item C.A is wrong, because there is no comparison in this paragraph.

29. "answer" d

"Analysis" This is a reasoning problem involving the whole text. This paper discusses the reaction attitudes of pharmaceutical companies, patients and doctors to super pills. It can be inferred that the change of drug use is determined by many factors, so the answer is D.

30. answer a

This is an attitude question, asking the author's attitude towards super pills. According to the first two sentences of the article and the discussion of the whole article, it is not difficult to see that the author's attitude towards this medicine is still quite in favor, so the answer is A. Option C means "(reluctantly) tolerance and acceptance", which is not in line with the author's tone, so it is excluded.

Text 3 translation

During the winter vacation five years ago, Donna and Phil Sartor's 20-year-old son, who was studying at the University of Arizona, hanged himself. Since then, the couple have been thinking about what signs they have overlooked and asked their son's classmates.

Deep thinking has aroused people's concern about U Lifeline(www. uli Nielsen. org), and college students can log on to this website to ask questions at school. 120 More than 20 colleges and universities have used this website and added some school information. 1300,000 college students registered this website with their student ID cards.

"This is a very good website, which can improve the vigilance against suicide, reduce discrimination against mental illness and encourage people to seek help," said Paul Grayson, director of the consulting service department of new york University, who started using the website a year ago.

The main component of this website is Self-E-Valuator, which is a self-test software developed by Duke University Medical Center to help students judge whether they are at risk of depression, suicide, anorexia or drug dependence. In addition to helping students, the website also compiles a large number of anonymous data of students so that the school can understand the health status on campus.

The website also provides students with links to local medical services, a catalogue of prescription drugs and their negative effects, and a link to the huge archive "Ask Alice" developed by Columbia University, which contains hundreds of anonymous responses from college students all over the world. For those students who are worried about their friends, there is also a section on the website devoted to the symptoms of suicide and depression.

However, it is difficult to evaluate the effectiveness of this service, and anonymous online service may even play a negative role. Dr. Lanny Berman, executive director of the American Suicide Research Association in Washington, said, "This kind of online consultation can't replace interactive face-to-face consultation."

Uli cats will first admit that website consultation can't replace real physiotherapists. Ron Gibori, executive director of uli Cats, said, "Our goal is to help students find signs of depression and then guide them to the right place for treatment."

Mrs Satov still pays attention to this website which she calls "Knowledge Base", which could have prevented her son Jed from committing suicide. She said, "If Jed's classmates know the symptoms of depression, they can find Jed's problem."

3 1. "answer" d

"Analysis" is a question of writing intention. The first paragraph is about the Satow family to introduce the topic of the article, uli cats, so the answer is D.

32.answer c

"Analysis" is a matter of detail. According to the second and third paragraphs of the article, the purpose of using this website in universities is to encourage students to consult their depression online, so the answer is C.

33. "answer" b

"Analysis" is a matter of detail. According to the fifth paragraph, Go Ask Alice is a question and answer library that provides health advice to students, so the answer is B.

34. "answer" a

"Analysis" is a question of sentence meaning. According to the meaning of the last two paragraphs of the article, although the website can provide consultation, real and adequate treatment still needs physical therapists. That's what item A means. It's the correct option.

35.answer c

"Analysis" This is an inference. According to the meaning of the last paragraph, it can be inferred that Mrs. Satow must be very supportive of the website, so the answer is C.

Text 4 translation

The meanings of "science" and "technology" will change profoundly from one generation to the next, but the similarities between these two terms far exceed their differences. Both of them contain thinking characteristics, both of them involve causality in the material world, and both of them adopt experimental research methods, from which the empirical results can be verified repeatedly. Science, at least in theory, does not care much about the practicability of the results, but more about establishing universal laws, but in fact, science and technology are inseparable. In the historical development process of various industries, we can see their interaction to varying degrees, such as chemistry, engineering, physics, astronomy, civil engineering, ceramics and other industries. The differences between scientists and technicians in research activities are related to the following factors: different educational requirements, social status, methods, terminology, reward methods, institutional goals and career goals. However, throughout history, many "pure" scientists have both theoretical achievements and practical innovations.

Indeed, it is wrong to say that science is the theoretical basis of technological innovation and pure theoretical research is indispensable for the development of industrial civilization. Most industrial progress has nothing to do with laboratory research. Basic tools and techniques in the fields of machinery, chemical engineering, astronomy, metallurgy, water conservancy, etc. existed long before the discovery of relevant theoretical laws. For example, steam engines have been widely used long before thermodynamics explained the principle of steam.

In recent years, the value difference between science and technology has become more and more acute. People who oppose scientific progress have always existed. However, nowadays many people are more afraid of technology than science. They think that science can be regarded as a peaceful and objective inquiry into the eternal laws of nature, but in modern society, the practical application of technology seems a bit out of control.

Many historians of science believe that technology is an inevitable condition of developed industrial civilization, and they also believe that the technological development in the past few hundred years has also accumulated considerable momentum. The speed of technological innovation is growing at a geometric level, far exceeding the geographical and political limitations. These technological innovations have changed the traditional cultural system and often brought unpredictable social consequences. Therefore, technology is both progressive and destructive.

36.answer c

"Analysis" is a matter of detail. According to the third sentence of the original text, one of the similarities between science and technology is the experimental research method. So the answer is that casual in C. B. is not equal to causality in the original text, so it is excluded.

37. "answer" b

"Analysis" This is a true and false question. According to the first sentence of the second paragraph, the author thinks that "science is the theoretical basis of technological innovation, and pure theoretical research is indispensable to the development of industrial civilization". It can be seen that the author disagrees with item B, so B is the answer.

38. Answer A

"Analysis" This is an example. In the last sentence of the second paragraph, the author mentioned the steam engine to refute the view that "theoretical research is indispensable to the development of industrial civilization", so the answer is A, in which "feeding" means "living by ..."

39. "answer" d

"Analysis" is a question of sentence meaning. The meaning of the quotation mark sentence is fully explained in the last paragraph. "Technological innovation has changed the traditional cultural system and often brought unpredictable social consequences. So technology is both progressive and destructive, which is called "out of control", so the answer is D.

40. answer d

"Analysis" This is an attitude question that asks the attitude of historians. In the last paragraph, historians have both positive and negative attitudes towards the development of technology, so the answer is D. "Agree with reservations".

"overall analysis"

This paper introduces the decline of American interest in elections and analyzes several related reasons. The first paragraph reveals the matter itself, and the following paragraphs analyze the reasons. As far as this article is concerned, it is very important to grasp the structural level before and after the article.

4 1

This topic examines the logical connection in the paragraph, and the blank below reads "But it's time to stop blaming citizens", which shows that it is inevitable that some people accuse ordinary citizens of not being keen on American political elections. So the answer is e.

42.B

This question examines the examinee's ability to grasp the overall structure of the article. Because the last sentence of the second paragraph says "candidates, public officials and journalists are not campaigning for Americans in the kind they abandoned", the third paragraph also says "officials" and the next paragraph says "journalists", it can be concluded that this paragraph should say "candidates", that is, "leaders", so item B is the answer.

43.D

This question examines the logical understanding inside the paragraph and pays attention to the corresponding vocabulary expression. Since it is said in front of the space that journalists are not interested in politicians' positive remarks and abandon the editing room floor, then offensive remarks will be broadcast live (offensive sound fragments will get broadcast time; ; The positive sentence falls on the floor of the editing room), then it can be inferred that item D is the most logical expansion content, and the words are closely related (get more time on online news).

44.G

This topic involves grasping the internal logic of a paragraph. Since it says, "We interviewed100,000 Americans to find out why they participated in the election", the answer is G, which is very logical.

45.F

This topic also involves the logic in the paragraph, since it says "officials failed to urge citizens to do their duty and vote." However, the policies supported by officials are difficult to do this "(officials urge citizens to perform their duties and participate in elections, but on the other hand, the policies they formulate make it difficult for citizens to participate in voting elections), then the logical answer must be F.

philosophical works

46. "Structural analysis" This is a simple sentence with uncomplicated structure.

The translation of difficult words "out of proportion" can be flexibly translated into "exciting ……" instead of sticking to the original text; In addition, the understanding of "no shrinkage ..." should be combined with the above accurate translation.

The development of technology and the liberalization of finance have led to a sharp increase in the number of extremely wealthy families, but failed to reduce the number of poor families accordingly.

47. "Structural analysis" is a coordinate structure before and after a colon. There are two parallel comparative adverbial clauses "faster than" in the second half.

The translation of the first two "causes" in the colon of "difficult words" should be handled flexibly.

It is these fundamental reasons that have produced serious consequences, even worse: the prices of industrial products and services exported by rich countries have increased much faster than those exported by poor countries, even faster than those produced by poor countries with little international trade.

48. "structural analysis" and "to whom" guide the whole attributive clause and modify the "young man" in front; In the attributive clause, two "threats" are juxtaposed as the complement of "means".

"Difficult words" and "means" mean "means".

As a result, many young people are unemployed and resentful, and new information technology has given them the means to threaten social stability, even in rich countries.

49. "Structural analysis", "Why" leads to the main clause and "If" leads to the clause.

"Subscribe" in the main sentence of "Unveiled Words" means "agree, agree"; "If possible ..." can be translated as "if ..." in the clause, where "situation" means "situation" and "harvest" means "achievement".

If the fruits of commodity and capital market liberalization are often concentrated in the hands of high-end income groups in developing countries, why do the elites in developing countries agree with the globalization agenda advocated by western countries, enterprises and multilateral organizations?

50. Semicolons before and after "structural analysis" are coordinate structures.

The difficult word "ding" can be translated into "solution, change" according to the context: "asset" is the outline word "asset"

However, they did not pay attention to the connection between the world income distribution gap and poverty; They believe that the poverty problem can be solved by giving the poor welfare and opportunities without changing the income and asset distribution structure.

history as the second of the four divisions of ancient Chinese library collection

China is now witnessing a new upsurge in people's interest in attending various night classes or training courses. As the picture shows, many people are flocking to English classes, while others are rushing to attend lectures on WTO. Even after working all day, they all look happy and eager to go to class.

This enthusiasm for new knowledge can be attributed to the government's opening-up policy, especially China's accession to the WTO. All these have injected new vitality into China's foreign trade and exchanges. It is reported that the trade volume between China and the world has reached an unprecedented $500 billion, and cultural exchanges with other countries are also expanding day by day. The new situation requires people to learn more WTO rules, and of course they must have a solid knowledge of English. Otherwise, they may find it difficult to conduct effective trade or exchange with foreign countries. They may lose competition in the process of globalization.

There is no doubt that China's open policy and the globalization of the world are irreversible, and more and more people in China will find it necessary to learn new knowledge and skills. Therefore, in the next few years, more and more people will attend various training courses or lectures.

Not easy to find. If it is useful, please adopt it.
