3、ints)The Dreadlock DeadlockIn the fall of 1993 Christopher Polk transferred from FedExs hub in Indianapolis to take over a delivery route in Flatbush District, Brooklyn, N.Y. But moving to the countrys largest community of Caribbean and African immigrants only precipitated a far more profound journe
4、y. I was becoming culturally aware of the history of the black people, says Polk, now 31, and that gave me these spiritual questions. His answer came providentially, by way of a music video featuring Lord Jamal, who raps about the Rastafarian belief in the sanctity of dreadlocks - the cords of perma
5、nently interlocked strands first worn by African chiefs perhaps 6,000 years ago.Now a practicing Rastafarian, Polk sports thick garlands that gently cascade onto his shoulders. Your hair is your covenant, he says. Once you grow your locks, it puts you on a path.Unfortunately, that path was a collisi
6、on course with Federal Expresss grooming policy, which requires men to confine their dos to a reasonable style. After years of deliberation, Polks bosses gave him a choice: shear his locks or be transferred to a lower-paid job with no customer contact. He refused both options and was terminated in J
7、une 2000.His tale is not unique. Although Rastafarians number about 5,000 nationally, today dreadlocks, twists or braids are at the height of fashion, nearly as common as Afros were 30 years ago. If Afros symbolized militancy, dreads signal a more spiritual self-declaration, a figurative locking wit
8、h African ancestors. As Stanford professor Kennell Jackson, who teaches a course called African Coiffures and Their New World Legacies, puts it, Theres a divinity to these locks.Divine or not, some employers consider them unacceptably outr. Six other New York-area FedEx employees have lost their job
9、s because of dreadlocks. They have sued, alleging religious discrimination; the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and New Yorks attorney general have also charged FedEx with violating religious protections in the Civil Rights Act.The dreadlock deadlock may be easing. FedEx altered its pol
10、icy slightly a few weeks ago: in the future, observant employees who seek a waiver may wear their locks tucked under uniform hats, says a company spokeswoman. The concession isnt enough to settle the lawsuits yet. The EEOC also wants reinstatement for the fired drivers, says trial attorney Michael R
11、anis. Hes optimistic. Some new styles, he knows, grow more appealing over time.Part B Choice of Two Translations (二选一题)(30 points)Topic 1 (选题一)Eurasians: The New Face of AsiaFusion is in, not only as an abstract fashion concept, but in that most grounded of realities: mixed-blood people who walk, ta
12、lk, and produce even more multiracial progeny. Most strange of all, these hybrids are finding themselves hailed as role models for vast masses in Asia with no mixed blood at all. When I think of Asia, I dont necessarily think of people who look like me, says Declan Wong, a Chinese-Dutch-American act
13、or and producer, But somehow weve become the face that sells the new Asia.So maybe Asias Eurasian craze is driven by the theories of that whitest of white men, economist Adam Smith. As the world gets smaller, we look for a global marketing mien, a one-size-fits-all face that helps us sell Nokia cell
14、 phones and Palmolive shampoo across the world.For any business, you cant think locally anymore, says Paul Lau, general manager at Elite Model Management in Hong Kong, who has built up a stable of Eurasians for his internationally minded clients. At the very least, you need to think regionally. Idea
15、lly, you should think globally. A global image helps sell products, even if no one but Filipinos would ever want to buy duck-fetus eggs or Thais the most pungent variety of shrimp paste. Yanto Zainal, president of Macs909, a boutique ad agency in Jakarta, used all indos for a campaign for the local
16、Matahari department store chain. The store wanted to promote a more cosmopolitan image, he says. Indos have an international look but can still be accepted as Indonesian.Channel V, the Asia-wide music television channel, was one of the first to broadcast the message of homogenized hybridism. We need
17、ed a messenger that would fit in from Tokyo to the Middle East. Says Jonnifer Seeto, regional sales marketing manager for the channel, which began beaming its border-busting images in 1994. Star Veejay Asha Gill personifies the global look. When asked what her ethnic heritage is, Gill, a Malaysian c
18、itizen, simply shrugs. Oh, who knows, she says. Im half Punjabi, mixed with some English, a little French and dribs and drabs of God knows what else. The 29-year-old speaks crisp British English, fluent Malay, and a smidgen of Punjabi. She grew up in a Kuala Lumpur neighborhood that was mostly Chine
19、se, attended an English-speaking school and was pals with Malay and Indian kids. Gills Channel V show, broadcast in English, has a strong following in Malaysia, Japan and the United Arab Emirates. Im Hitlers worst nightmare, she says. My ethnicity and profession make me a global person who cant be d
20、efined in just one category.Topic 2 (选题二)MatterLook at all the things around us: chairs, desks, cupboards, papers and pens in our classroom; motor cars, bicycles and buses in the streets; trees, plants and animals in the countryside; birds, aeroplanes and clouds in the sky; fishes, seaweeds and cora
21、ls in the sea; stars, the moon and the sun in outer space. These and all other things including the human body, are examples of matter. Matter is anything that takes up space and has weight.What is Matter Made of?Since ancient times, learned men or philosophers have thought about matter and what it
22、is made up of. One group of philosophers thought that matter was made up of a substance called hyle (实质). Another group of philosophers said that matter was made up of four substances, namely earth, water, air and fire. A third group believed that matter was made up of very tiny particles which were
23、 too small to be seen. These particles were so small that they could never be further divided into smaller particles. They gave the particles the name atoms which means those which cannot be divided. The difference between the various kinds of atoms and the ways in which they were joined were suppos
24、ed to result in the different kinds of matter.All these ideas arose purely from the mind and were not based on investigation. For many years, people believed in the second idea. But actually it is the third idea that is nearer to our present concept of matter.Daltons Atomic TheoryIn the early ninete
25、enth century, Dalton, an English school teacher, stated in this atomic theory that matter was made up of tiny, indivisible particles, which he also called atoms. His laboratory work showed him that atoms could neither be divided into smaller parts nor could they be destroyed. He pictured matter as b
26、eing made up of tiny solid spherical atoms. Today the idea of the atoms has been accepted. But further work has shown that contrary to Daltons findings, atoms are made up of even smaller particles.Section 2: Chinese-English Translation (汉译英)This section consists of two parts, Part A - Compulsory Tra
27、nslation and Part B - Choice of Two Translations consisting of two sections Topic 1 and Topic 2. For the passage in Part A and your choice of passages in Part B, translate the underlined portions, including titles, into English. Above your translation of Part A, write Compulsory Translation and above your translation from Part B, write Topic 1 or Topic 2 and write your translations on the ANSWER SHEET (40 points, 80 minutes).Part A Compulsory Translation (必译题)(20
