81、 trouble is, no one knows which half. In the internet age, at least in theory, this fraction can be much reduced. By watching what people search for, click on and say online, companies can aim “behavioral” ads at those most likely to buy.In the past couple of weeks a quarrel has illustrated the valu
82、e to advertisers of such fine-grained information: Should advertisers assume that people are happy to be tracked and sent behavioral ads? Or should they have explicit permission?In December 2010 Americas Federal Trade Commission (TC) proposed adding a “do not track” (DNT) option to internet browsers
83、, so that users could tell advertisers that they did not want to be followed. Microsofts Internet Explorer and Apples Safari both offer DNT; Googles Chrome is due to do so this year.In February the FTC and the Digital advertising Alliance (DAA) agreed that the industry would get cracking (尽快行动) on r
84、esponding to DNT requests.On May 31st Microsoft set off the row.It said that Internet Explorer 10, the version due to appear with Windows & would have DNT as a default (默认值).Advertisers are horrified.Human nature being what it is, most people stick with default settings. Few switch DNT on now, but i
85、f tracking is off it will stay off. Bob Lidice, the chief executive of the Association of National Advertisers, says consumers will be worse off if the industry cannot collect information about their preferences. People will not get fewer ads, he says. “Theyll get less meaningful, less targeted ads.
86、”It is not yet clear how advertisers will respond. Getting a DNT signal does not oblige anyone to stop tracking, although some companies have promised to do so. Unable to tell whether someone really objects to behavioral ads or whether they are sticking with Microsofts default, some may ignore a DNT
87、 signal and press on anyway.Also unclear is why Microsoft has gone it alone. After all, it has an ad business too, which it says will comply with DNT requests, though it is still working out how. If it is trying to upset Google, which relies almost wholly on advertising, it has chosen an indirect me
88、thod: There is no guarantee that DNT by default will become the norm.DNT does not seem an obviously huge selling point for Window 8 though the firm has compared some of its other products favorably with Googles on that count before.Brendon Lynch, Microsofts chief privacy officer, blogged: “We believ
89、e consumers should have more control: Could it really be that simple?”43. It is suggested in Paragraph 1 that “behavioral” ads help advertisers to _. A. ease competition among themselvesB. lower their operational costsC. avoid complaints from consumersD. provide better online services44. “The indust

Bob Liodice holds that setting DNT as a default_.A. may cut the number of junk adsB. fails to affect the ad industryC. will not benefit consumersD. goes again
91、st human nature46. Which of the following is true according to Paragraph 6?A. DNT may not serve its intended purpose.B. Advertisers are willing to implement DNT.C. DNT is losing its popularity among consumers.D. Advertisers are obliged to offer behavioral ads.【答案】43. B 44. D 45. C 46. A【解析】这是一篇说明文。文
92、章对在浏览器中设置DNT作为默认值存在的争议进行了详细说明。【43题详解】细节理解题。根据第一段“An old saying has it that half of all advertising budgets are wasted - the trouble is, no one knows which half.In the internet age, at least in theory, this fraction can be much reduced.By watching what people search for, click on and say online, comp
93、anies can aim “behavioral” ads at those most likely to buy.(俗话说得好,一半的广告预算都浪费了问题是,没人知道是哪一半。在互联网时代,至少在理论上,这一比例可以大大降低。通过观察人们在网上搜索什么、点击什么和说什么,公司可以针对那些最有可能购买的人投放“行为”广告)”可知,行为广告可以帮助公司减少运营成本。故选B。【44题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段第一句“In December 2010 Americas Federal Trade Commission (TC) proposed adding a “do not track” (
94、DNT) option to internet browsers, so that users could tell advertisers that they did not want to be followed.(2010年12月,美国联邦贸易委员会(TC)提议在互联网浏览器中增加一个“禁止跟踪”(DNT)选项,这样用户就可以告诉广告商他们不想被跟踪)”可知,“In February the FTC and the Digital advertising Alliance (DAA) agreed that the industry would get cracking (尽快行动) o
95、n responding to DNT requests.(今年2月,联邦贸易委员会和数字广告联盟(DAA)一致认为,该行业将着手回应DNT请求)”中的该行业是指网络浏览器开发行业。故选D。【45题详解】细节理解题。根据第五段第四句“Bob Lidice, the chief executive of the Association of National Advertisers, says consumers will be worse off if the industry cannot collect information about their preferences.(全国广告主协
96、会的首席执行官Bob Lidice说,如果广告行业不能收集消费者的偏好信息,他们的处境将会更糟)”可知,此处是指如果设置DNT为默认值,广告行业就不能收集消费者的偏好信息,他们的处境将会更糟。由此可知,这样并不会对消费者有好处。故选C。【46题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段第二句“Getting a DNT signal does not oblige anyone to stop tracking, although some companies have promised to do so.(得到DNT信号并不能迫使任何人停止跟踪,尽管一些公司已经承诺会这样做)”可知,DNT可能无法实现其预
97、期目的(防止用户被追踪)。由此可知,选项A正确。故选A。Section CDirections: Read the following passage.Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box.Each sentence can be used only once.Note that there are two more sentences than you need.The future of management educationOn behalf of the trustees of the Gordon Ge

107、row.(坏消息是,由于我们商学院的商业模式本身面临结构性挑战,我们最优秀的商学院地位正面临危险。需求暴跌。我们的MBA申请下降了四分之一。在美国,申请商学院的人数已经连续五年下降)”可知,上文主要说明了美国申请商学院的人数连续五年下降,本句为本段最后一句,故承接上文,举例说明具体的学院申请人数下降情况。故D选项“即使在哈佛,今年的申请人数也下降了大约6%”符合语境,故选D。【48题详解】根据后文“The time I spent getting my MBA on our leafy campus by the fountainhead of the River Rand constitut

109、世界级的思想领导力)”可知,本段最后一句提到,在线商业教育也可以提供世界级的思想领导力,说明商学院申请人数下降也受到了网络技术的影响和干扰。故F选项“我们也未能应对技术干扰”符合语境,故选F。【49题详解】根据上文“Worse, the relevance of our curriculum is being challenged.(更糟糕是,我们课程的相关性正在受到挑战)”以及后文“They are in a very different mind space, demanding that we go beyond our traditional teachings on the prim

119、ic praises for their efforts in a particular case【解析】【分析】概要写作,简言之就是对所读过的文章简要概括,写出文章的中心大意,也可称之为摘要。主要考察对文章主旨大意的概括和准确获取关键词的能力,同时考查学生用简洁语言概括文章重要信息的能力及对文章整体结构的把握能力。【详解】写作步骤 1)细读原文。找出文章主旨和结构,明确各段的大意,并列出原文要点。分析原文的内容和结构,将内容分项扼要表述并注意在结构上的顺序。在此基础上选出与文章主题密切相关的部分。如本文,首先读第一段可知,本文主要叙述了孩子们在学校表现出色时,父母总会进行表扬,给予他们信心。
120、可译为:Parents praise their kids to boost their confidence.。第二段主旨大意为:事实上他们可能错了。太多的表扬会让孩子害怕尝试新事物,或者冒险,因为害怕无法在父母表扬的地方保持领先地位。因此要恰当地表扬。此大意可重新表达为:However, too much praise may stop their kids from exploring new things. Kids may also feel discouraged and stop trying without adequate praise.于是第三段和第四段提出如何才能恰当地表
121、扬,即“Experts say that the quality of praise is more important than the quantity. If praise is sincere and focused an the effort - mot the outcome, you can give it as often as your child does something that deserves a verbal reward.”还要“Praising the effort can also mean you need to identify the part wh
122、ere your kids make special efforts in a particular scenario”,表扬重在质量,要真诚。要在特定情况下的努力给予真诚和具体的表扬。此大意可重新表述为:o what matters is the quality of praise, Parents should learn to give sincere and specific praises for their efforts in a particular case2)在写作时概要应包括原文中的主要事实,同原文保持协调,略去不必要的细节。最后注意要点之间的衔接,安排好篇幅的比例。不排
123、斥用原文的某些词句,但不要照搬原文的句子,如果不能完全用自己的话语表达,至少对原文句子做一些句型转换,同义词的运用,概括,主被动语态,合并句子等,形成新的东西。 3)看是否符合规定的词数要求。【点睛】本文结构合理,概括紧扣主题,用自己的语言来叙述全文的要点,文章篇幅安排的很有条理。句式相对简洁。文中运用了较高级的词组如boost ones confidence ; stop . from doing ; discourage. from . give sincere and specific praises for .以及连接副词however ,so等。句式以简单句为主,同时运用了以what

125、查名词,非谓语动词,固定短语。“意志”will,坚强的意志为strong will;某人具有坚强的意志为of strong will。“避免受影响”为prevent from doing sth/sth;他是,句子中的“是”为谓语动词,因此prevent需要使用非谓语动词形式,且与句子逻辑主语为主动关系,因此使用现在分词形式;被影响为be affected by;gossip流言,不可数名词。此句中描述的是一个人的品质,表示事实因此用一般现在时。故翻译为He is a man of strong will, preventing himself from being affected by t
126、he gossip around him.53. 在昨天的会议上,编辑坚持要求必须在第二天中午之前将新闻发布出去。(insist) (汉译英)【答案】At yesterdays meeting, the editor insisted that the news (should) be released by noon the next day.【解析】【详解】考查虚拟语气和时态。根据句意表示“编辑”应用名词editor,作主语;表示“坚持要求”应用动词insist,作谓语,后跟宾语从句不缺少成分,句意完整,应用that引导;insist表示“坚持要求”时,所接的宾语从句一般用虚拟语气,其虚拟
127、语气的结构为:(should) +原形动词,should可省略;宾语从句中主语news与谓语动词release构成被动关系;表示“第二天中午之间”短语为by noon the next day;结合句意可知应用一般过去时。故翻译为At yesterdays meeting, the editor insisted that the news (should) be released by noon the next day.54. 在遭受严重的天灾后,该地区的经济遭受重创,只有在政府的领导下才能让其起死回生。 (bring) (汉译英)【答案】After suffering from the
128、serious natural disaster, this areas economy is broken seriously. Only the governments leadership can bring it back to life.【解析】【详解】考查固定搭配。表示“遭受”用suffer from,表示“使起死回生”用bring .back to life。描述主语现在的状态,用一般现在时。suffer from与其逻辑主语 this areas economy 之间是主动关系,用现在分词短语作状语。表示“只有”用副词only。情态动词can表示“能够”,其后动词用原形。再结合
129、其它汉语提示。故翻译为“After suffering from the serious natural disaster, this areas economy is broken seriously. Only the governments leadership can bring it back to life.”。55. 作为一名准大学生,你必须要学会独自面对未知的未来,培养自力更生的能力,这样你 才能在未来的人生道路上走得比他人更远。(by which) (汉译英)【答案】As a prospective college student, you must learn to fac

131、o sth.;表示“走得更远”短语为go further;且此处为“介词+关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词the ability of self-reliance,介词+关系代词引导的定语从句,指物,只能用关系代词which。故翻译为As a prospective college student, you must learn to face the unknown future by yourself and cultivate the ability of self-reliance, by which you can go further than others in yo
