2023年考研考博-考博英语-武汉大学考试历年真题摘选含答案解析第1卷一.综合题(共15题)1.翻译题中国作为一个发展中国家,面临着发展经济和保护环境的双重任务。然而,我国人口众多,资源相对不足,经济规模越来越大,经济发展与资源和环境之间的矛盾日益突出。环境污染严重,生态状况恶化、资源耗费巨大、回收率低而导致环境破坏等问题,已成为中国经济保持可持续发展的瓶颈。从国情出发,中国在全面推进现代化的进程中,已将环境保护视为一项基本国策,将实现经济可持续发展视为一项重要战略,同时在全国范围内开展污染防治工作和生态环境保护活动,环境恶化的状况基本得到了控制。实践证明,我们协调经济发展与环境保护两者之间关系的做法是行之有效的。人类发展只有合理地利用自然界,与自然界保持和谐关系,才能维持和发展人类所创造的文明,才能与自然界共生共荣、协调发展。中国作为国际社会的成员,在努力保护自己环境的同时,还积极参与国际环保事务,促进国际环保合作,并认真履行国际义务。所有这些都充分表明了中国政府和人民保护全球环境的诚意和决心。Directions:TranslatethefollowingparagraphfromChineseintoEnglish.PleasewriteyouranswerontheANSWERSHEET.2.翻译题在得病以前,我受父母宠爱,在家中横行霸道,一旦隔离,拘禁在花园山坡上一幢小房子里,我顿感被打入冷宫,十分郁郁不得志起来。一个春天的傍晚,园中百花怒放,父母在园中设宴,霎时宾客云集,笑语四溢。我在山坡的小屋里,悄悄掀起窗帘,窥见园中大千世界一片繁华。自己的哥姐、堂表弟兄也穿插其间,个个喜气洋洋。一霎时,一阵被人摒弃、为世所遗忘的悲愤兜上心头,禁不住痛哭起来。Directions:TranslatethefollowingparagraphfromChineseintoEnglish.PleasewriteyouranswerontheANSWERSHEET.3.翻译题(1)Someauthoritiesdeclarethatpeoplemayactuallygoinsaneinordertofindinthedreamland(梦境)ofinsanity,thefeelingofimportancethathasbeendeniedthemintheharshworldofreality.TherearemorepatientssufferingfrommentaldiseasesintheUnitedStatesthanfromallotherdiseasescombined.Whatisthecauseofinsanity?Nobodycananswersuchasweepingquestion,butweknowthatcertaindiseases,suchassyphilis(梅毒),breakdownanddestroythebraincellsandresultininsanity.Infact,aboutone-halfofallmentaldiseasescanbeattributedtosuchphysicalcausesasbrainlesions(脑病变),alcohol,toxinsandinjuries.Buttheotherhalf—andthisistheappallingpartofthestory—theotherhalfofthepeoplewhogoinsaneapparentlyhavenothingorganicallywrongwiththeirbraincells.Inpost-mortemexaminations(尸检),whentheirbraintissuesarestudiedunderthehighest-poweredmicroscopes,thesetissuesarefoundtobeapparentlyjustashealthyasyoursandmine.Whydothesepeoplegoinsane?Iputthatquestiontotheheadphysicianofoneofourmostimportantpsychiatrichospitals.Thisdoctor,whohasreceivedthehighesthonoursandthemostcovetedawardsforhisknowledgeofthissubject,toldmefranklythathedidn’tknowwhypeoplewentinsane.Nobodyknowsforsure.Buthedidsaythatmanypeoplewhogoinsanefindininsanityafeelingofimportancethattheywereunabletoachieveintheworldofreality.(2)Ifsomepeoplearesohungryforafeelingofimportancethattheyactuallygoinsanetogetit,imaginewhatmiracleyouandIcanachievebygivingpeoplehonestappreciationthissideofinsanity.OneofthefirstpeopleinAmericanbusinesstobepaidasalaryofoveramilliondollarsayearwasCharlesSchwab.HehadbeenpickedbyAndrewCarnegietobecomethefirstpresidentofthenewlyformedUnitedStatesSteelCompanyin1921,whenSchwabwasonlythirty-eightyearsold.WhydidAndrewCarnegiepayamilliondollarsayear,ormorethanthreethousanddollarsaday,toCharlesSchwab?Why?BecauseSchwabwasagenius?No.Becauseheknewmoreaboutthemanufactureofsteelthanotherpeople?Nonsense.CharlesSchwabtoldmehimselfthathehadmanymenworkingforhimwhoknewmoreaboutthemanufactureofsteelthanhedid.Schwabsaidthathewaspaidthissalarylargelybecauseofhisabilitytodealwithpeople.Iaskedhimhowhedidit.Hereishissecretsetdowninhisownwords—wordsthatoughttobecastineternalbronzeandhungineveryhomeandschool,everyshopandofficeintheland—wordsthatchildrenoughttomemorizeinsteadofwastingtheirtimememorizingtheconjugationofLatinverbsortheamountoftheannualrainfallinBrazil—wordsthatwillallbuttransformyourlifeandmineifwewillonlylivethem:“Iconsidermyabilitytoarouseenthusiasmamongmypeople,”saidSchwab,“thegreatestassetIpossess,andthewaytodevelopthebestofapersonisbyappreciationandencouragement.“Thereisnothingelsethatsokillstheambitionsofapersonascriticismsfromsuperiors.Inevercriticizeanyone.Ibelieveingivingapersonincentivetowork.SoIamanxioustopraisebutloathtofindfault.IfIlikeanything,Iamheartyinmyapprobationandlavishinmypraise.”ThatiswhatSchwabdid.Butwhatdoaveragepeopledo?Theexactopposite.(3)Iftheydon’tlikeathing,theybawlouttheirsubordinates;iftheydolikeit,theysaynothing.Astheoldcoupletsays:“OnceIdidbadandthatIheardever/TwiceIdidgood,butthatIheardnever.”“Inmywideassociationinlife,meetingwithmanyandgreatpeopleinvariouspartsoftheworld,”Schwabdeclared,(4)“Ihaveyettofindtheperson,howevergreatorexalted(尊贵的)hisstation,whodidnotdobetterworkandputforthgreatereffortunderaspiritofapprovalthanhewouldeverdounderaspiritofcriticism.”4.单选题Foryearspediaticiansdidn’tworrymuchabouttreatinghypertensionintheirpatients.Afterall,kidsgrowsofast,it’shardkeepingupwiththeirshoesize,letalonetheirbloodpressure.Sure,hypertensioninadultsplacesthematgreaterriskofheartattackandstroke.Butnobodylikestheideaofstartingyoungstersonblood-pressuremedicinetheycouldwinduptakingtherestoftheirlives.Whoknowswhatpreviouslyunheard-ofsideeffectscouldcropupafterfiveprsixdecadesofdailyuse?Therationalehasbeen:kidsgrowoutofsomanythings,maybethey'llgrowoutofthistoo.Now,though,comeswordthathighbloodpressurecanbedestructiveeveninchildhood.AccordingtoarecentreportinthejournalCirculation,19of130childrenwithhighbloodpressuredevelopedadangerousthickeningoftheheartmusclethat,inadultsatleast,hasbeenlinkedtoheartfailure.“Nooneknowsifthispatternholdstrueforyoungerpatientsaswell,”saysDr.StephenDaniels,apediatriccardiologistwholedthestudyatChildrensHospitalMedicalCenterinCin

能产生爱的力量;没有(这种)力量就不会产生爱。9.不定项选择题AsteroidsandcometsthatrepeatedlysmashedintotheearlyEarthcoveredtheplanet’ssurfacewithmoltenrockduringitsearliestdays,butstillmayhaveleftoasesofwaterthatcouldhavesupportedtheevolutionoflife,scientistssay.Thenewstudyrevealsthatduringtheplanet’sinfancy,thesurfaceoftheEarthwasahellishenvironment,butperhapsnotashellishasoftenthought,scientistsadded.Earthformedabout4.5billionyearsago.Thefirst500millionyearsofitslifeareknownastheHadeanEon.Althoughthistimeamountstomorethan10percentofEarth’shistory,littleisknownaboutit,sincefewrocksareknownthatareolderthan3.8billionyearsold.FormuchoftheHadean,Earthanditssisterworldsintheinnersolarsystemwerepummeledwithanextraordinarynumberofcosmicimpacts.“ItwasthoughtthatbecauseoftheseasteroidsandcometsflyingaroundcollidingwithEarth,conditionsonearlyEarthmayhavebeenhellish,”saidleadstudyauthorSimoneMarchi,aplanetaryscientistattheSouthwestResearchInstituteinBoulder,Colorado.Thisimaginedhellishnessgavetheeonitsname—HadeancomesfromHades,thelordoftheunderworldinGreekmythology.However,inthepastdozenyearsorso,aradicallydifferentpictureoftheHadeanbegantoemerge.Analysisofmineralstrappedwithinmicroscopiczirconcrystalsdatingfromthiseon“suggestedthattherewasliquidwateronthesurfaceoftheEarthbackthen,clashingwiththepreviouspicturethattheHadeanwashellish,”Marchisaid.ThiscouldexplainwhytheevidenceoftheearliestlifeonEarthappearsduringtheHadean—maybetheplanetwaslessinhospitableduringthateonthanpreviouslythought.TheexacttimingandmagnitudeoftheimpactsthatsmashedEarthduringtheHadeanareunknown.Togetanideaoftheeffectsofthisbombardment,Machiandhiscolleagueslookedatthemoon,whoseheavilycrateredsurfacehelpedmodelthebatteringthatitscloseneighborEarthmusthaveexperiencedbackthen.“Wealsolookedathighlysiderophileelements(elementsthatbindtightlytoiron),suchasgold,deliveredtoEarthasaresultoftheseearlycollisions,andtheamountsoftheseelementstellsusthetotalmassaccretedbyEarthastheresultsofthesecollisions,”Marchisaid.Priorresearchsuggeststheseimpactsprobablycontributedlessthan0.5percentoftheEarth’spresent-daymass.Theresearchersdiscoveredthat“thesurfaceoftheEarthduringtheHadeanwasheavilyaffectedbyverylargecollisions,byimpactorslargerthan100kilometersorso—really,reallybigimpactors,”Marchisaid.“WhenEarthhasacollisionwithanobjectthatbig,thatmeltsalargevolumeoftheEarth’scrustandmantle,coveringalargefractionofthesurface,”Marchiadded.ThesefindingssuggestthatEarth’ssurfacewasburiedoverandoveragainbylargevolumesofmoltenrock—enoughtocoverthesurfaceoftheEarthseveraltimes.ThishelpsexplainwhysofewrockssurvivefromtheHadean,theresearcherssaid.1.WhyisitlittleknownabouttheEarth'sfirst500millionyears?2.WhyistheearlyEarthimaginedtobehellish?3.WhywastheearlyEarthinfactlessinhospitablethanoftenthought?4.HowcanthemoonhelpwiththeunderstandingoftheimpactsthatsmashedtheEarth?问题1选项A.Becauseitisanimaginedperiodoftime.B.Becausethisperiodisoflittlesignificance.C.Becauseitisimpossibletoknowaboutthisperiod.D.Becausenorocksareavailableasresearchevidence.问题2选项A.Becauseitwasoftensmashedbyasteroidsandcomets.B.BecausebackthenHades,thelordofHell,resigned.C.BecauseitwassoaccordingtoGreekmythology.D.Becausebackthentherewasnolife.问题3选项A.BecausemineralsoftheHadeanhavebeenfoundsuggestingtheexistenceoflife.B.Becausetheclashingbroughtbyasteroidsandcometswasnotcompletelydamaging.C.BecauseduringtheHadeantherealreadyexistedtheevidenceoflife.D.BecausetherehadalreadybeenliquidwaterontheEarthbackthen.问题4选项A.ThemoononcesmashedintotheEarthtoo.B.ThemoonwasbatteredearlierthantheEarth.C.Themoon,asacloseneighbor,iseasiertoobserve.D.Themoon'ssurfaceisheavilycrateredastheEarth's.10.翻译题为了寻找实验室试验的替代品,经济学家十分关注历史所提供的自然实验。例如,当中东战争中断了原油运输时,全世界石油价格飞涨。对石油和石油产品的消费者来说,这个事件降低了他们的生活水平。对经济决策者来说,它提出了选择最优反应的难题。但对经济科学家来说,它提供了研究关键自然资源对世界经济影响的机会,而且,在战争引起的石油价格上涨结束后,这种机会还会持续很长时间。因此,在本书中我们要考虑许多历史事件。这些事件之所以具有研究价值,既是因为它们能使我们了解过去的经济,更重要的则是因为它们使我们可以说明并评价现在的经济理论。Directions:TranslatethefollowingparagraphfromChineseintoEnglish.11.翻译题"Time”saystheproverb“ismoney”.Thismeansthateverymomentwell-spentmayputsomemoneyintoourpockets.(1)Ifourtimeisusefullyemployed,itwilleitherturnoutsomeusefulandimportantpieceofworkwhichwillfetchitspriceinthemarket,oritwilladdtoourexperienceandincreaseourcapacitiessoastoenableustoearnmoneywhentheproperopportunitycomes.Therecanthusbenodoubtthattimeisconvertibleintomoney.Letthose,whothinknothingofwastingtime,rememberthis;letthemrememberthatanhourmisspentisequivalenttothelossofabank-note;andthatanhourutilizedistantamounttosomuchsilverorgold;andthentheywillprobablythinktwicebeforetheygivetheirconsenttothelossofanypartoftheirtime.Moreover,ourlifeisnothingmorethanourtime.Tokilltimeisthereforeaformofsuicide.(2)Weareshockedwhenwethinkofdeath,andwesparenopains,notrouble,andnoexpensetopreservelife.Butwearetoooftenindifferenttothelossofanhouroraday,forgettingthatourlifeisthesumtotalofthedaysandofthehourswelive.Adayoranhourwastedisthereforesomuchlifeforfeited.Letusbearthisinmind,andwasteoftimewillappeartousinthelightofacrimeasculpableassuicideitself.Thereisath
