He was acknowledging one of our most distinctive characteristics： the fact that we are social animals whose behavior and personalities are shaped by the groups to which we belong.Throughout life， most of our daily activities are performed in the company of others. Whether our purpose is working， playing， raising a family， learning， or simply relaxing， we usually pursue it in groups， even if the group is as small as two or three people. Out need for human contacts is not merely a practical one； it is a deep psychological need as well. If people are deprived of the company of others for prolonged periods， mental breakdown is the usual result. Even the Geneva Convention（日內(nèi)瓦公約），an international agreement that regulates the treatment of prisoners of war， recognizes this need. It regards solitary（孤獨的） imprisonment for more than thirty day as a cruel form of torture（折磨）。In its strictest sense， a group is a collection of people interacting together in an orderly way on the basis of shared expectations about one anothers behavior. As result of this interaction， members feel a common sense of“belonging.”They distinguish members from nonmembers and expect certain kinds of behavior from outsiders.21.By“No man is an island，”John Donne means _.A.no one can live on an island aloneB.a man is not surrounded by sea on all sidesC.a man and an island are irrelevantD.no one can live in isolation from other people22.The fact that we work or even play in groups illustrates the point that _.A.poeple are different from animalsB.Donne recognized the group to which he belongedC.human beings are social animalsD.human behavior and personalities are formed by others23.”Breakdown” as used in Line 6， Paragraph 2 most probably denotes _.A.separationB.collapseC.analysisD.function24.According to the passage， what is NOT a characteristic of group？A.There are at least two people in it.B.The members share some common grounds.C.The members work for one purpose.D.The members interact regularly with each other.25.This passage is mainly about _.A.the importance of human contactsB.pattens of human behaviorC.the importance of human activitiesD.patterns of human societyPassage TwoQuestions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.The word health can be used in a number of ways. In the past， health only the absence of disease or illness. Today， though， health has a broader meaning. Health is the state of your well-being that includes how you feel physically， mentally， and socially. Wellness is another term that describes this broader view of health. You can understand the need for a broader definition if you think about how health in your life is different from health in your grandparents lives.In 1900， the main causes of death were diseases that were spread by bacteria（細(xì)菌） and viruses（病毒）。If you had lived then， the danger of your dying from pneumonia（肺炎） would have been three times greater than the danger of your dying from cancer.The diseases that were most common in 1900 affected people of all ages. It is not surprising， then that around 1900， the emphasis of health was on freedom from illness. Today many of the diseases that were common in 1900 can be prevented or cured by improved medicines and methods of sanitation（衛(wèi)生）。 Most diseases now are likely to occur later in life. You as a teenager will probably not have to think about the same threats to your health as your grandparents did.These improvements in health conditions mean that not only can you now enjoy a better life， but you also have a greater chance of having a longer life. Conrtolling diseases has increased the life expectancy in the United States. Grenerally， people born more recently have higher life expectancies. Since 1900， the life expectancy in the United States has increased by more than 27 years. It has increased from 47 years for those born in 1900 to 74 years 1981.26.According to Paragraph 1， health and wellness _.A.can be used interchangeably on all occasionsB.are different in that the latter has a broader senseC.had the same meaning in the pastD.both refer to the state of your well-being27.Which of the following statements is true？A.Diseases caused by bacteria and viruses were incurable in 1900.B.Bacteria and viruses are the main causes of death today.C.Medicines for curing pneumonia were not available in 1900.D.Pneumonia caused as many deaths in 1900 as cancer does today.28.“Life expectancy”in the last paragraph most probably means _.A.the kind of life that a person may expect to liveB.the mode of life that a group of people have livedC.the length of time that a person or an animal has livedD.the length of time that people may expect to live29.On an average， people in America who were born in 1900 _.A.had a life-span of 74 yearsB.lived a shorter but better life than those born laterC.lived to 47 years of ageD.lived 27 years longer than those born in 198130.The intended readers of the passage are _.A.teenagersB.the diseasedC.adultsD.aged peoplePassage ThreeQuestions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage.Most Americans would have a difficult time telling you， specifically， what the values are which Americans live by. They have never given the matter any thought.Over the years I have introduced thousands of international visitors to life in the United States. This has caused me to try to lock at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitors， I am confident that the values listed in this booklet describe most （but not all ）Americans， and that understanding these values can help you， the international visitor， understand Americans.It is my belief that if foreign visitors really understand how deeply these 13 values are ingrained in Americans， they will then be able to understand 95% of American actionsactions which might otherwise appear“strange，”“confusing，”or“unbelievable”when evaluated from the perspective of the foreigners own society and its values.The different behaviors of a people or a culture make sense only when seen through the basic beliefs， assumptions and values of that particular group. When you encounter and action， or hear a statement in the United States which surprises you， try to see it as an expression of one or more of the values listed in this booklet.31.Can an ordinary American tell you his/her value system？A.Yes， because this is something an American lives by.B.No， because everyone will have his/her own system.C.No， because he/she has never thought about it.D.Yes， because values are something often in their thought.32.The author lists 13 values in his booklet to _.A.invite foreigners to visit AmericaB.look at Americans through the eyes of foreign visitorsC.describe the confusing actions of most AmericansD.help international visitors understand Americans33.The word“ingrained”in Line 2， Paragraph 3 most probably means _.A.rooted in the mindsB.found in the grainsC.planted for foodD.prepared with grain34.Visitors sometimes fine Americans behave in a strange， confusing or unbelievable way， probably because _.A.Americans are hard to understandB.Americans have values which are entirely different from their ownC.they view Americans according to the values in their own societyD.it is difficult to understand any people when you first encounter them35.How can you understand a surprising behavior or statement of an American when you visit the United States？A.By linking it to the basic beliefs， assumptions and values of the Americans.B.By comparing it with the values of yourself and your country.C.By expressing one or more of the values in this booklet.D.By looking at the particular group of people who behave or speak that way.PART TWO.Word Spelling （10 points， 1 point for two items）將下列漢語單詞譯成英語。作為提示，每個單詞的詞類、首字母及字母數(shù)目均已給出。請將完整的單詞寫在答題紙上。36.護(hù)照n. p_ 37.畢業(yè)生n. g_38.減輕；救濟(jì)n. r_ 39.貨物，船貨n. c_40.深奧的，深刻的a. p_ 41.使延長v. l_42.城市的a. u_ 43.任命v. a_44.誠實n. h_ 45.強迫v. c_46.批評的，批判的a. c_ 47.獻(xiàn)身，忠誠n. d_48.效率高的a. e_ 49.手工的a. m_50.日常工作，常規(guī)n. r_ 51.中立的a. n_52.朝氣蓬勃的a. y_ 53.提高v. h_54.附加的；另外的a. a_ 55.家庭的；家庭a.&n. h_.Word Form （10 points， 1 point for each item）將括號中的各詞變?yōu)檫m當(dāng)?shù)男问教钊肟瞻?。答案寫在答題紙上。56._（stand） at the gate was a young man in green coat.57.It is said the conference is _（hold） in this hall next month.58.Little did they realize that they _（make） an important discovery in science.59.we would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere _（appreciate） of your help.60.As research techniques become more advanced， the number of animals used in experiments may decrease， but stopping _（test） on animals altogether is a long way away.61.Large or fat people who want to look _（small） than they are usually wear dark clothes.62.Robots， becoming _（increase） prevalent in factories， are programmed and engineered to do more jobs.63.The author of the text expresses a strong _（disapprove） of working on and off frequently.64.He would have given you more help， if he _ （not be） so busy.65.A life _（live）without fantasy and daydreaming is a really poor life indeed.Translation from Chinese into English（15 points， 3 points for each item）將下列各句譯成英語并將答案寫在答題紙上。66.圖書管理員要求學(xué)生有讀完雜志后放回原處。67.警察已著手對這個案子進(jìn)行細(xì)致、全面的調(diào)查。68.你是否把所有的錢都從銀行里取出來由你自己決定。69.他對妻子要離開他的威脅沒有在意。70.如果你堅持不聽我的話，我就是要懲罰你。.Translation from English into Chinese（15 points）將下列短文譯成漢語并將答案寫在答題紙上。When we talk about intelligence， we do not mean the ability to get good scores on certain kinds of tests or the ability to do well in school. By intelligence we mean a way of living and behaving， especially in a new or upsetting situation.For instance， when in a new situation， an intelligent person thinks not about himself or what might happen to him. He tries to find out all he can， and then predicts the situation， acts immediately and tries to do something about it. He probably isnt sure how it will all work out， but at least he tries. And if he cannot make things work out right， he doesnt feel ashamed that he has failed； he just tries to learn from his mistakes. An intelligent person， even if he is very young， has a special outlook on life， a special feeling about life， and knows how to fit into it. 全國2002年10月高等教育自學(xué)考試英語(二)試題 PART ONE.

Pigs, fishponds and cropsall housed in tall buildings. This is a vision of industrial farming in the Netherlands(荷蘭). In a world concerned about the environment and transport, would it not make sense to concentrate food production next to a harbor and an airport? And since humans can live in tall buildings, why not pigs and fish? The creative minds behind a government report suggest just this for a site at Rotterdam(鹿特丹) very clo
