第6题：The questions in this group are based on the content of a passage.After reading the passage, choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage. James Joyce revolutionized the novel, the short story, and modern literature as we know it. He was born inDublin, the first of 10 children in aCatholic family. His father was a civil servant whose poor financial judgment left the family impoverished for much of Joyce’s youth. Young James attendedDublin’s fine Jesuit schools, which gave him a firm grounding in theology and classical languages--subjects that appeared repeatedly in his later work. The story of his early life and his intellectual rebellion againstCatholicism and Irish nationalism are told in the largely autobiographical novelA、Portrait of theArtist as a Young Man. In 1902, at the age of 20, Joyce leftDublin to spend the rest of his life in Paris, Trieste, Rome, and Zurich, with only occasional visits back home.Despite this self-imposed exile,Dublin was the setting for most of his writings.Dubliners (1914), Joyce’s most accessible work, is a collection of short stories describing the paralyzing social mores of middle-classCatholic life. "TheDead," the final story in the collection, is frequently listed as one of the finest short stories ever written. Joyce’s next book, Ulysses, took seven years to write; once he finished writing it, he almost couldn’t find anyone to publish it. Upon the novel’s publication, both Ireland and the United States immediately banned it as obscene.Despite these obstacles, Ulysses has come to be generally recognized as the greatest twentieth-century novel written inEnglish. The novel was revolutionary in many ways. The structure was unique: Joyce recreated one rill day in the life of his protagonist, LeopoldBloom, and modeled the actions of the story on those of Ulysses in the Odyssey. In recountingBloom’s day, Joyce mentions everything that happens toBloom--including thoughts, bodily functions, and sexual acts--providing a level of physical actuality that had never before been achieved in literature. To provide a psychological insight comparable to the physical detail, Joyce employed a then-revolutionary technique called stream of consciousness, in which the protagonist’s thoughts are laid bare to the reader. From 1922 until 1939, joyce worked on a vast, experimental novel that eventually became known as Finnegan’s Wake. The novel, which recounts "the history of the world" through a family’s dreams, employs its own "night language" of puns, foreign words, and literary allusions. It has no clear chronology or plot, and it begins and ends on incomplete sentences that flow into each other. Many of Joyce’s supporters thought he was wasting his time on the project, although the playwright SamuelBeckett, who later won the Nobel Prize for Literature, helped Joyce compile the final text when his eyesight was failing. Today, Finnegan’s Wake is viewed as Joyce’s most obscure and possibly most Which of the following would make the most appropriate title for this passage A、The Long Way Home: Ulysses and Finnegan’s Wake B、James Joyce, Ulysses, and theBattle againstCensorship C、The Works of James Joyce, Ireland’s Literary Genius D、The Hidden Value of James Joyce’s Great Novels E、A、Portrait of James Joyce as a Young Man

第9题：The questions in this group are based on the content of a passage.After reading the passage, choose the best answer to each question.Answer all questions following the passage on the basis of what is stated or implied in the passage. One of the best sources modem scholars have for learning about HellenisticEgypt is the large supply of papyrus fragments that have turned up in theEgyptian desert over the last century. Papyrus is a thick type of paper made from a reedy plant found inEgypt. Papyrus is much tougher than the wood-pulp paper used in modern society; whereas a book produced today will most likely fall apart within a century, there are papyrus fragments that are still legible over 2,000 years after scribes wrote on them. It is primarily by accident that any of these fragments have surviveD、Most of the surviving fragments have been found in ancient garbage dumps that were covered over by the desert and preserved in the dry heat. The benefit of this type of archeological find is that these discarded scraps often give us a more accurate picture of the daily lives of ancientEgyptians--their business affairs, personal correspondence, and religious pleas--than the stone engravings and recorded texts that were intended to be passed down to later generations. One of the most important papyrus discoveries of recent years was the revelation in 2001 that a scrap of papyrus that had been discarded and used to wrap a mummy contained 110 previously unknown epigrams (short, witty poems) by the Hellenistic poet Posidippus (cA、280-240B、 C、). Posidippus lived inAlexandria and benefited from the support of King Ptolemy II Philadelphos (ruled 284-246B、 C、). These new epigrams have yielded fascinating insight into the court culture and literary sensibilities of early HellenisticEgypt. King Ptolemy, of course, was also a sponsor of the famous library ofAlexandria, the greatest depository of knowledge in the ancient worlD、According to the twelfth-centuryByzantine writer John Tzetzes, the ancient library contained nearly half a million papyrus scrolls. If that library had not burned down, maybe archeologists today would not have to spend so much of their time sorting through ancient trash! According to information given in the passage, which of the following locations would probably yield the highest probability of finding a previously undiscovered papyrus fragment A、The ship of a royal messenger that sank off theEgyptian coast of the Mediterranean Sea in the third centuryB、 C、 B、The charred remnants of an ancientEgyptian palace that was burned by Roman troops in the first centuryB、 C、 C、The refuse heap of an ancientEgyptian town that was buried in the desert in the fifth centuryA、D、 D、The private collections of French andBritish explorers from the nineteenth centuryA、D、who first uncovered many of the principal sites ofEgyptian archeology E、The library of a Hellenistic fishing village that sank into the marshes of the NileDelta in the third centuryA、D、

第10题：Read the argument and the instructions that follow it, and then make any notes that Hill help you plan your response. Write your response on a separate sheet of paper. If possible, type your essay on a word processor. The MegaTekCorporation’s vice president of marketing made the following statement to the company’s board of directors: MegaTek has been losing market share to UltraCorp for three years straight.Customer surveys suggest that consumers perceive UltraCorp products to be of higher quality than those produced by MegaTek. MegaTek spends more annually on research and development than UltraCorp does, and it pays its employees a higher average salary, so we do not believe that our products are actually inferior; rather, the perception is due to the fact that UltraCorp charges higher prices and spends more money on advertising. In order to regain the lost market share from UltraCorp, MegaTek should raise its prices and devote more money to advertising. Discuss how well reasoned you find this argument. In your discussion, be sure to analyze the line of reasoning and the use of evidence in the argument. For example, you may need to consider what questionable assumptions underlie the thinking and what alternative examples or counterexamples might weaken the conclusion. You can also discuss what sort of evidence would strengthen or refute the argument, what changes in the argument would make it more logically sound, and what, if anything, would help you better evaluate its conclusion.
