Even if the end result of globalization is to make the world smaller, its scope seems to foster the need for more pri

12、vate local connections among many individuals. As Bernard Poignant, mayor of the town of Quimper in Brittany, told the Washington Post, “Man is a fragile animal and he needs his close attachments. The more open the world becomes, the more ties there will be to one s roots and ones land.”In most comm

13、unities, local languages such as Poignants Breton serve a strong symbolic function as a clear mark of “authenticity (原真性)”. The sum total of a communitys shared historical experience, authenticity reflects a noticeable line from a culturally idealized past to the present, carried by the language and

14、 traditions associated with the communitys origins. A concern for authenticity leads most secular (世俗的) Israelis to defend Hebrew among themselves while also acquiring English and even Arabic. The same obsession with authenticity drives Hasidic Jews in Israel or the Diaspora to champion Yiddish whil

15、e also learning Hebrew and English. In each case, authenticity amounts to a central core of cultural beliefs and interpretations that are not only resistant to globalization but also are actually reinforced by the “threat” that globalization seems to present to these historical values. Scholars may

16、argue that cultural identities change over time in response to specific reward systems. But locals often resist such explanation and defend authenticity and local mother tongues against the perceived threat of globalization with near religious eagerness.As a result, never before in history have ther

17、e been as many standardized languages as there are today: roughly 1,200. Many smaller languages, even those with far fewer than one million speakers, have benefited from state-sponsored or voluntary preservation movements. On the most informal level, communities in Alaska and the American northwest

18、have formed Internet discussion groups in an attempt to pass on Native American languages to younger generations. In the Basque, Catalan, and Galician regions of Spain, such movements are fiercely political and frequently involved loyal resistance to the Spanish government over political and linguis

19、tic rights. Projects have ranged from a campaign to print Spanish money in the four official languages of the state to the creation of language immersion nursery and primary schools. Zapatistas in Mexico are championing the revival of Mayan languages in an equally political campaign for local autono

20、my.In addition to causing the feeling of the subjective importance of local roots, supporters of local languages defend their continued use on practical grounds. Local tongues foster higher levels of school success, higher degrees of participation in local government, more informed citizenship, and

21、better knowledge of ones own culture, history, and faith. Government and relief agencies can also use local languages to spread information about industrial and agricultural techniques as well as modern health care to diverse audiences. Development workers in West Africa, for example, have found tha

22、t the best way to teach the vast number of farmers with little or no formal education how to sow and rotate crops for higher yields is in these local tongues. Nevertheless, both regionalization and globalization require that more and more speakers of local languages be multi-literate.1、In paragraph

23、1, the author quoted a mayors word to show that globalization _.Astrengthens local identitiesBweakens regionalizationCstrengthens individualismDweakens local attachments2、The influence of globalization on authenticity is that it _.Aweakens the authority of authenticityBprevents the development of au

24、thenticityCenhances the importance of authenticityDpromotes the maturity of authenticity3、In terms of campaigns for language protection, America differs from Spain and Mexico in that _.Aits volunteers have enough sponsorship from the state.Bits locals are not interested in finding native Americans.C

25、its youths are eager to pass on the local traditions.Dits movements are not political.4、Which of the following statements is NOT true?APractically, local languages are less used than English.BLocal languages are more important in daily life.CThe smaller the world is, the more united the locals are.D

26、The relation between localization and globalization is double-win.22（8分）Oil is essential for modern life. About 64 percent of the worlds oil is located in the Middle East, but the heaviest consumers of oil are Europe, America, and Japan. The problem lies in getting the oil from the countries that pr

27、oduce it to the countries that consume it. This is mainly done using oil tankers. Usually the oil is shipped safely and with no problems, but occasionally there is a disaster.Every year millions of tons of oil are spilled into the ocean. Although this is only a small percentage of the total amount s

28、hipped around the world each year, this spilled oil can have terrible effects on ocean life, including the coastlines where the oil washes up onto shore.One of the worst oil spills in history occurred along the Alaskan coastline in 1989, when the Exxon Valdez tanker got stuck off the coast of Alaska

29、, spilling 42 million liters of oil. Although it wasnt the largest oil spill, the disaster was terrible because it occurred in such a sensitive natural area. In this spill, the tankers captain, who was tired from overwork and drinking alcohol, had gone to take a rest. He gave control of the ship to

30、another sailor, who was unfamiliar with the route. The ship ran onto Bligh Reef. Damaged by the reef, the ship leaked oil out into the ocean. More than 1,600 kilometers of coastline were affected by the oil spill. Many birds and otters died as a result of the oil covering their skin, and many other

31、sea creatures and the animals that fed on them were also severely affected.1、Which country is NOT among the largest consumers of oil?AJapan BIraqCAmerica DGermany2、What does the underlined “them” refer to?AThe birds. BThe otters.CThe sea creatures. DThe birds and the otters.3、Which of the following

32、statement is true?AThe oil leak of Alaska is because the captain was unfamiliar with the route.BMany birds and otters died from eating the spilled oil.CAlaska spill was the most serious spill of all time.DAlthough some oil leak is not serious, it will affect ocean life.23（8分） When students and paren

33、ts are asked to rate subjects according to their importance，the arts are unavoidably at the bottom of the list. Music is nice, people seem to say, but not important. Too often it is viewed as entertainment, but certainly not an education priority（优先）. This view is shortsighted. In fact, music educat

34、ion is beneficial and important for all studentsMusic tells us who we are. Because music is an expression of the beings who create it, it reflects their thinking and values, as well as the social environment it came from. Rock music represents a lifestyle just as surely as does a Schubert song. The

35、jazz influence that George Gershwin and other musicians introduced into their music is obviously American because it came from American musical traditions. Music expresses our character and values. It gives us identity as a society.Music provides a kind of perception(视角) that cannot be acquired any

36、other way. Science can explain how the sun rises and sets. The arts explore the emotive（情感的）meaning of the same phenomenon. We need every possible way to discover and respond to our world for one simple but powerful reason: No one way can get it all.The arts are forms of thought as powerful in what

37、they communicate as mathematical and scientific symbols. They are ways we human beings “talk” to each other. They are the language of civilization through which we express our fears, our curiosities our hungers, our discoveries, our hopes. The arts are ways we give form to our ideas and imagination

38、so that they can be shared with others. When we do not give children access to an important way of expressing themselves such as music, we take away from them the meanings that music expresses.So music education is far more necessary than people seem to realize.1、According to paragraph 1, students _

39、.Aregard music as a way of entertainmentBdisagree with their parents on educationCview music as an overlooked subjectDprefer the arts to science2、In Paragraph 2, the author uses jazz as an example to _.Acompare it with rock musicBshow music identifies a societyCintroduce American musical traditionsD

40、prove music influences peoples lifestyles3、According to the passage, the arts and science _.Aapproach the world from different anglesBexplore different phenomena of the worldCexpress peoples feeling in different waysDexplain what it means to be human differently4、What is the main idea of the passage

41、?AMusic education deserves more attention.BMusic should be of top education priority.CMusic is an effective communication tool.DMusic education makes students more imaginative.24（8分） Why dont quiet carriages work, and how might they be make to? Quiet carriages on trains are a nice idea: travelers vo

42、luntarily make their phones silent, turn stereos off and keep chatter to a minimum. However, in reality, there is usually at least one silly babbler(喋喋不休的人) to break the silence.A couple of problems prevent peaceful trips. First, there is a sorting problem: some passengers end up in the quiet carria

43、ge by accident and are not aware of the rules. Second, there is a commitment problem: noise is sometimes made by travelers who choose the quiet carriage but find an important call hard to ignore.The train operators are trying to find answers. Trains in Queensland Australia, are having permanent sign

44、s added to show exactly what is expected; a British operator has invested in some technology to prevent phone calls.Microeconomics suggests another approach. Fining people for making a noise would surely dissuade(劝阻) the polluter and is a neat solution in theory, but it requires costly monitoring an

45、d enforcement. Another way would be to use prices to separate quiet and noisy passengersin effect, creating a market for silence. A simple idea would be to sell access to the quiet carriage as an optional extra when the ticket is bought. Making the quiet coach both an active choice and a costly one

46、would dissuade many of those who dont value a peaceful ride.Charging may also solve the commitment problem. This is particularly tricky, as attitudes to noise can change during the journey. Some passengers would pay the quiet premium but still chatter away when some vital news arrives. Schemes that

47、reward the silenta rating system among fellow passengers, for examplecould help. The idea is that losing your hard-won reputation offsets the short-term gain from using the phone. But such a system also fails the simplicity test.A 2010 book by George Akerlof and Rachel Kranton argues that “norms”fee

48、lings about how everyone should behavealso play a role in decision-making. Charging a price, even if just a token amount, means the quiet carriage becomes a service that fellow passengers have bought, not just a preference they have expressed. Perhaps different norms would come into play, encouragin

49、g calm. If not, a personal bubble is always an option: noise-canceling headphones start at around $50.1、According to the passage, what does microeconomics suggest?AFinding the source of noise.BPutting a price on noise.CAvoid using a phone in the carriage.DInvesting more money in monitoring and enfor
