  一、阅读测验和英译汉 60%

  1.阅读测验 24%

  细读下面两段文字,然后回答文后所附的问题(答案必须用英文,必须简明扼要,不必用完整的句子):

  A)Once a poor man had a parrot.The parrot could speak.It could say :"There is no doubt about it." The parrot could only say these words and all day long it repeated:"There is no doubt about it." To every question it gave one and the same answer:"There is no doubt about it."

  One day, when the poor man had no money for bread, he decided to sell the parrot. He took the cage and went to the market.

  "Who wants to buy my parrot?Twenty pounds for my clever parrot," cried he.

  A man came up and said:

  "This is a fine bird but the price is too high."

  Then he asked the parrot:"Are you worth twenty pounds?"

  "There is no doubt about it ," answered the parrot as usual.

  The man was very pleased with the clever answer; he bought the bird and took it home.

  Some time after he began to see his mistake.And he was sorry.He stood near the cage and said:

  "What a fool I am to have thrown so much money away!"

  "There is no doubt about it," answered the parrot.

  And this time the parrot was right.

  1.What could the parrot do?

  2.How much did the man pay for the parrot?

  3.Why was the man sorry afterwards?

  4.Why does the writer say at the end,"And this time the parrot was right"?

  B)There are two ways to increase agricultural production.One is by bringing more land under cultivation . The other is by getting more out of the land already cultivated.China still has not enough land under cultivation . Most of China's unused land is in the North-east and North-west-very large areas inhabited by a comparatively small number of people.But she is still industrially backward, and for the time being cannot afford the machines and money to reclaim(开垦)it on a large scale. Our main job at present, therefore, is to increase production by raising the output(产量)per acre of existing farm land. If we can work on these lines, we shall be able,in a period of several five-year plans,to raise our agricultural output to such a level that it will comfortably meet the people's needs and satisfy the demands of national construction.

  1.What are the two methods to increase production in agriculture?

  2.In what part of China is found most of her unused land?

  3.What is needed for reclaiming unused land on a large scale?

  4.What is our main job at present?

  2.英译汉 36%

  One of the main problems is the correct proportion between the development of heavy and light industry. First of all, we must build up our heavy industry; that is a fundamental principle. China's economic backwardness, which has continued so long, can be wiped out only when she herself can supply the equipment, materials, and technical skills needed to develop the national economy of 600 million people.But at the same time, we must not neglect the development of light industry, because light industry will help to satisfy the rising needs of the people.Without a sufficient amount of consumers'goods, it would be difficult to keep prices stable. Peasants would not be willing to raise production or sell their surplus if they could not buy what they need with their increased income. Therefore the development of light industry must also occupy an important position in our Five-Year Plans.
