在职艺术硕士（MFA）全国联考英文阅读理解-试卷7
(总分：40.00，做题时间：90分钟)
一、英文阅读理解题(总题数：4，分数：40.00)
Sign has become a scientific hot button. Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language
study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to
probe how the brain generates and understands language, and throw new light on an old scientific controversy： whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or
whether it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the worlds only liberal
arts university for deaf people. When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd: among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher. Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code,
each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language
(ASL) was thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语). But Stokoe believed
the hand talk his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have
a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even
deaf people dismissed their signing as substandard. Stokoes idea was academic heresy(异端邪说). It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals
and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his
idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese. They assumed language must be based on speech, the modulation (调节) of sound. But sign language is based on
the movement of hands, the modulation of space. What I said, Stokoe explains, is that language
is not mouth stuff—its brain stuff. (340 words)（分数：10.00）
(1).The study of sign language is thought to be______.（分数：2.00）
A.a new way to look at the learning of language
B.a challenge to traditional views on the nature of language √
C.an approach to simplifying the grammatical structure of a language
D.an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language
解析：解析：本题属于细节推断题。这篇文章开头介绍了手语研究的进展以及意义，“进展”指过去的20年研究人员发现了手语的独特性(realized that signed languages are unique)，意义是指手语的这一发现为研究大脑如何应用与理解语言开辟了新的方向(a new way to probe how the brain generates and
understands language)，同时为一个古老的科学论题带来了新的希望：语言到底是天生的还是后天习得的(whether language…is something that we are born with，or whether it is a learned behavior)。可知答案为B。
(2).The present growing interest in sign language was stimulated by______.（分数：2.00）
A.a famous scholar in the study of the human brain
B.a leading specialist in the study of liberal arts
C.an English teacher in a university for the deaf √
D.some senior experts in American Sign Language
解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。题目问的是，当前对手语的越来越高涨的兴趣是由谁激发的。第一段段末和第二段段首给我们介绍了一位先驱人物Stokoe的基本信息：华盛顿特区一所聋人大学的教师。他在学校教授英语。对照选项，
显然答案为C。
(3).According to Stokoe, sign language is______.（分数：2.00）
A.a substandard language
B.a genuine language √
C.an artificial language
D.an international language
解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。根据文章第三段，我们了解到当时人们普遍认为美国手语不过是一种混杂英语(thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English)，这里也在强调手语从属于语言。之后是Stokoe自己的发现与思考：他认为学生们使用的手语意义比人们的普遍认为的要更为丰富(the“hand
talk”his students used looked richer)，同时受到了启发：或许聋人确实拥有一种真正的语言。可知答案为B。
(4).Most educators objected to Stokoes idea because they thought______.（分数：2.00）
A.sign language was not extensively used even by deaf people
B.sign language was too artificial to be widely accepted
C.a language should be easy to use and understand
D.a language could only exist in the form of speech sounds √
解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。题目问的是，许多教育者都反对Bill Stokoe的观点，是因为他们认为什么。根据“For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages
like English，French and Japanese．They assumed language must be based on speech，the modulation(调节)of sound．”，即得出答案为D。
(5).Stokoes argument is based on his belief that______.（分数：2.00）
A.sign language is as efficient as any other language
B.sign language is derived from natural language
https://www.360docs.net/doc/635209678.html,nguage is a system of meaningful codes
https://www.360docs.net/doc/635209678.html,nguage is a product of the brain √
解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。根据文章最后一段我们得知：很多教育家们反对Stokoe的观点，认为语言必须以语音为基础，是声音的变体(language must be based on speech，the modulation of sound)，而Stokoe则认为手语恰恰以手的动作为基础(sign language is based on the movement of hands)，进一步解释说“语言不是嘴巴层次的东西，而是大脑层次的东西(brain stuff)”。由此可知答案为D。
Reebok executives do not like to hear their stylish athletic shoes called
ootwear for yuppies
(雅皮士，少壮高薪职业人士). They contend that Reebok shoes appeal to diverse market segments, especially now that the company offers basketball and childrens shoes for the under-18 set and walking shoes for older customers not interested in aerobics (健身操) or running. The executives also point out that through recent acquisitions they have added hiking boots, dress and casual shoes, and high-performance athletic footwear to their product lines, all of which should attract new and varied groups of customers. Still, despite its emphasis on new markets, Reebok plans few changes in the upmarket (高档消费人群的) retailing network that helped push sales to $ 1 billion annually, ahead of all other sports shoe marketers. Reebok shoes, which are priced from $27 to $85, will continue to be sold only in better specialty, sporting goods, and department stores,
in accordance with the companys view that consumers judge the quality of the brand by the quality of its distribution. In the past few years, the Massachusetts-based company has imposed limits
on the number of its distributors (and the number of shoes supplied to stores) , partly out of necessity. At times the unexpected demand for Reeboks exceeded supply, and the company could
barely keep up with orders from the dealers it already had. These fulfillment problems seem to
be distribution now, but the company is still selective about its distributors. At present, Reebok shoes are available in about five thousand retail stores in the United States. Reebok has already anticipated that walking shoes will be the next fitness-related craze, replacing aerobics shoes
the same way its brightly colored, soft leather exercise footwear replaced conventional running shoes. Through product diversification and careful market research, Reebok hopes to avoid the distribution problems Nike came across several years ago, when Nike misjudged the strength of
the aerobics shoe craze and was forced to unload huge inventories of running shoes through discount stores. (355 words)（分数：10.00）
(1).One reason why Reeboks managerial personnel don like their shoes to be called
ootwear
）2.00（分数：for yuppies is that______.
A.they believe that their shoes are popular with people of different age groups √
B.new production lines have been added to produce inexpensive shoes
C.yuppies usually evokes a negative image
D.the term makes people think of prohibitive prices
解析：解析：本题属于细节推论题。题于中的“managerial personnel”即为第一段的“executives”，因此可知本题答案在第一段且为该段之主题：目标市场很大，高层领导们当然不希望自己的产品仅供应一些雅皮士，再由下文“children's shoes for the under-18 set and walking for older customers”更可知其目标消费是多层次的。容易错选的选项B侧重公司的生产策略，故不妥。
(2).Reeboks view that consumers judge the quality of the brand by the quality of its
distribution (Lines 5~6, Para. 2) implies that______.（分数：2.00）
A.the quality of a brand is measured by the service quality of the store selling it
B.the quality of a product determines the quality of its distributors
C.the popularity of a brand is determined by the stores that sell it
D.consumers believe that first-rate products are only sold by high-quality stores √
解析：解析：本题属于句意理解题。题干引号中那部分在第二段，答案当然应在第二段，而该段主要论及高档消费群体的零售网——一只在精品专卖屋、体育用品专卖店及大百货商场销售。所以答案为D。
(3).Reebok once had to limit the number of its distributors because______.（分数：2.00）
A.its supply of products fell short of demand √
B.too many distributors would cut into its profits
C.the reduction of distributors could increase its share of the market
D.it wanted to enhance consumer confidence in its products
解析：解析：本题属于细节归纳题。根据题干中“limit the number of distributions”确定答案在第三段。该段论及即使产品供不应求时，也要对批发商有所选择，而对批发商数量的限制部分是由于“out of
necessity”(迫不得已)，因为需求量出乎意料地超过了供应能力。
(4).Although the Reebok Company has solved the problem of fulfilling its orders, it（分数：2.00）
A.does not want to further expand its retailing network
B.still limits the number of shoes supplied to stores
C.is still particular about who sells its products √
D.still carefully chooses the manufacturers of its products
解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。题干中的“although”与短文第三段倒数第二句之“but”相呼应，答案即为该句的复述。
(5).What lesson has Reebok learned from Nikes distribution problems?（分数：2.00）
A.A company should not sell its high quality shoes in discount stores.
B.A company should not limit its distribution network.
C.A company should do follow-up surveys of its products.
D.A company should correctly evaluate the impact of a new craze on the market. √
解析：解析：本题属于细节推论题。“Nike”(耐克)一词确定答案位置在最后一段，市场预测与决策。Nike公司正是由于当时错误地判断了健身鞋流行的强度而导致了老产品(running shoes)的积压而不得不打折销售——这是市场预测不准确所导致的。
Cars account for half the oil consumed in the U.S., about half the urban pollution and one fourth
the greenhouse (温室) gases. They take a similar toll (损耗) of resources in other industrial
nations and in the cities of the developing world. As vehicle use continues to increase in the
coming decade, the U.S. and other countries will have to deal with these issues or else face unacceptable economic, health-related and political costs. It is unlikely that oil prices will
remain at their current low level or that other nations will accept a large and growing U.S. contribution to global climatic change. Policymakers, and industry have four options: reduce
vehicle use, increase the efficiency and reduce the emissions of conventional gasoline-powered vehicles, switch to less harmful fuels, or find less polluting driving systems. The last of
only
the ultimately is —electricityby powered vehicles of introduction the particular in —these
sustainable option. The other alternatives are attractive in theory but in practice are either impractical or offer only marginal improvements. For example, reduced vehicle use could solve
traffic problems and a host of social and environmental problems, but evidence from around the
world suggests that it is very difficult to make people give up their cars to any significant
extent. In the U.S., mass-transit ridership and carpooling (合伙用车) have declined since World
War II. Even in western Europe, with fuel prices averaging more than $ 1 a liter (about $ 4 a
gallon) and with easily accessible mass transit and dense populations, cars still account for
80 percent of all passenger travel. Improved energy efficiency is also appealing, but alternative
fuel economy has barely made any progress in 10 years. Alternative fuels such as natural gas,
burned in internal-combustion engines, could be introduced at relatively low cost, but they would
lead to only marginal reductions in pollution and greenhouse emissions (especially because oil companies are already spending billions of dollars every year to develop less polluting types
of gasoline). (337 words)（分数：10.00）
(1).From the passage we know that the increased use of cars will______.（分数：2.00）
A.consume half of the oil produced in the world
B.have serious consequences for the well-being of all nations √
C.widen the gap between the developed and developing countries
D.impose an intolerable economic burden on residents of large cities
解析：解析：本题属于细节归纳题。通过归纳第一段主题可以得到答案。选项A、C和D均仅涉及问题的某个方面，只有B代表了私人轿车继续增长的真正后果。
(2).The U.S. has to deal with the problems arising from vehicle use because______.（分数：2.00）
A.most Americans are reluctant to switch to public transportation systems
B.the present level of oil prices is considered unacceptable
C.other countries will protest its increasing greenhouse emissions √
D.it should take a lead in conserving natural resources
解析：解析：本题属于细节推论题。根据第一段最后一句“It is unlikely…that other nations will accept
a large and growing U．S．contribution to global climatic change”，再结合上文论及轿车问题和“face…political costs”等细节，可推知答案为C。
(3).Which of the following is the best solution to the problems mentioned in the passage?（分数：2.00）
A.The designing of highly efficient car engines.
B.A reduction of vehicle use in cities.
C.The development of electric cars. √
D.The use of less polluting fuels.
解析：解析：本题属于细节题。根据题干中的“solution”可确定答案在第二段，又根据“best”可进一步确定答案在该段第二句“…is ultimately the only sustainable(可持续的)option”。
(4).Which of the following is practical but only makes a marginal contribution to solving the
problem of greenhouse emissions?（分数：2.00）
A.The use of fuels other than gasoline.
B.Improved energy efficiency. √
C.The introduction of less polluting driving systems.
D.Reducing car use by carpooling.
解析：解析：本题属于细节题。根据题干中的“marginal contribution”可以确定答案在第三段最后一句话，再分析这段话的开头提到的“Improved energy efficiency is also appealing”，即可得出答案为B。
(5).Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?（分数：2.00）
A.The decline of public transportation accounts for increased car use in western Europe.
√B.Cars are popular in western Europe even though fuel prices are fairly high.
C.The reduction of vehicle use is the only sustainable option in densely populated western
Europe.
D.Western European oil companies cannot sustain the cost of developing new-type fuels.
解析：解析：本题属于细节判断题。各选项涉及的内容可能在短文的任何地方，但正确答案通常仍应与主题一致。A的因果关系与短文内容(第二段倒数第二句)不一致；C与短文内容(第二段第一、二句及最后一句)相矛盾；D也非短文最后一句之本意。
In the 1950s, the pioneers of artificial intelligence (AI) predicted that, by the end of this century, computers would be conversing with us at work and robots would be performing our housework. But as useful as computers are, they
e nowhere close to achieving anything remotely resembling
these early aspirations for humanlike behavior. Never mind something as complex as conversation:
the most powerful computers struggle to reliably recognize the shape of an object, the most elementary of tasks for a ten-month-old kid. A growing group of AI researchers think they know
where the field went wrong. The problem, the scientists say, is that AI has been trying to separate the highest, most abstract levels of thought, like language and mathematics, and to duplicate
them with logical, step-by-step programs. A new movement in AI, on the other hand, takes a closer
look at the more roundabout way in which nature came up with intelligence. Many of these researchers study evolution and natural adaptation instead of formal logic and conventional computer programs. Rather than digital computers and transistors, some want to work with brain cells and proteins.
The results of these early efforts are as promising as they are peculiar, and the new nature-based
AI movement is slowly but surely moving to the forefront of the field. Imitating the brains neural (神经的) network is a huge step in the right direction, says computer scientist and biophysicist Michael Conrad, but it still misses an important aspect of natural intelligence. People tend
to treat the brain as if it were made up of color-coded transistors, he explains, ut its not
simply a clever network of switches. There are lots of important things going on inside the brain cells themselves. Specifically, Conrad believes that many of the brains capabilities stem from
the pattern-recognition proficiency of the individual molecules that make up each brain cell.
The best way to build an artificially intelligent device, he claims, would be to build it around
the same sort of molecular skills. Right now, the notion that conventional computers and software
are fundamentally incapable of matching the processes that take place in the brain remains controversial. But if it proves true, then the efforts of Conrad and his fellow AI rebels could
turn out to be the only game in town. (384 words)（分数：10.00）
(1).The author says that the powerful computers of today______.（分数：2.00）
A.are capable of reliably recognizing; the shape of an object
B.are close to exhibiting humanlike behavior
C.are not very different in their performance from those of the 1950s
D.still cannot communicate with people in a human language √
解析：解析：本题属于细节归纳题。根据题意确定答案在第一段第二、三句。注意选项A中“are capable
of reliably recognizing…”与短文中“struggle to reliably recognize…”是不一致的，故不能选。更多的考生可能会误选C，但是，在效能(performance)上，当今电脑与50年代的电脑相距是非常大的，而且本文探讨的是人工智能，而非电脑的一般效能，故选题时要紧扣短文主题。
(2).The new trend in artificial intelligence research stems from______.（分数：2.00）
A.the shift of the focus of study onto the recognition of the shapes of objects
B.the belief that human intelligence cannot be duplicated with logical, step-by-step
programs √
C.the aspirations of scientists to duplicate the intelligence of a ten-month-old child
D.the efforts made by scientists in the study of the similarities between transistors and brain
cells
解析：解析：本题属于细节推论题。人工智能研究开发为什么会开辟一条全新的途径，一定是研究中碰到了难以逾越的障碍，这就是传统研究方法上的误区，也即第二段之第一、二句。．
(3).Conrad and his group of AI researchers have been making enormous efforts to（分数：2.00）
A.find a roundabout way to design powerful computers
B.build a computer using a clever network of switches
C.find out how intelligence developed in nature √
D.separate the highest and most abstract levels of thought
解析：解析：本题属于细节推论题。根据题意确定答案在第三段。根据Conrad对自己研究的评述(says)、研究中的发现(examples)、假设(believe)与断言(claim)，可归纳推断他们是在天然智能如何发展这一方面的研究中做了巨大的努力。
(4).Whats the authors opinion about the new AI movement?（分数：2.00）
A.It has created a sensation among artificial intelligence researchers but will soon die out.
B.Its breakthrough in duplicating human thought processes. √
C.Its more like a peculiar game rather than a real scientific effort.
D.It may prove to be in the right direction though nobody is sure of its future prospects.
解析：解析：本题属于观点态度推论题。如前所述，文章最后一段为作者对人工智能研究新方法的总结，其中隐含着作者的观点。另外短文第二段最后一句中的“promising”“surely”，第三段第一句中“a
huge step in the right direction…”等都流露了作者的态度一一作者对新的人工智能研究运动是非常肯定的。选项A中的“will soon die out”，C中的“like a game rather than”及D中“nobody is sure”等均含否定意念，不能作为答案。
(5).Which of the following is closest in meaning to the phrase he only game in town (Line 4, Para. 4)?（分数：2.00）
A.The only approach to building an artificially intelligent computer. √
B.The only way for them to win a prize in artificial intelligence research.
C.The only area worth studying in computer science.
D.The only game they would like to play in town.
解析：解析：本题属于词语理解题。阅读中词语的理解也不能脱离短文主题：game一词有游戏、竞赛方法规则、策略、方针等多种释义。D是短语的简单改写，不可能作为答案。B重点在获奖，与短文内容相差甚远，也应排除。容易混淆的是选项C，C只是侧重研究领域，即范围，而本文主要讨论研究方法，即途径。

2015年北京电影学院在职艺术硕士（MFA)考研招生简章详解 一、培养目标 为繁荣和发展我国文化事业，不断满足广大人民群众日益增长的文化需求，培养适应社会、经济、文化和艺术事业发展需要的高层次、应用型艺术专门人才，2014年我校继续在职艺术硕士(MFA)专业学位研究生。 艺术硕士专业学位(其英文名称为Master of Fine Arts，简称MFA)设音乐、戏剧、戏曲、电影、广播电视、舞蹈、美术、艺术设计8个招生领域，2014年我校招收艺术硕士专业学位的招生领域为电影、美术和戏剧等三个领域，培养目标为高层次、应用型电影艺术专门人才。艺术硕士专业学位获得者应具有高水平的艺术创作技能、系统的专业知识、较高的艺术审美能力和较强的艺术理解力与表现力，能够胜任本专业艺术创作领域的各项工作。 一、提前进入“角色” 考前一个晚上睡足八个小时，早晨吃好清淡早餐，按清单带齐一切用具，提前半小时到达考区。一方面可以消除紧张、稳定情绪、从容进场，另一方面也留有时间提前进入“角色”——让大脑开始简单的数学活动，进入单一的数学情境。如： 1.清点一下用具是否带齐(笔、橡皮、作图工具、身份证、准考证等)。
2.把一些基本数据、常用公式、重要定理在脑子里“过过电影”。 3.最后看一眼难记易忘的知识点。 4.互问互答一些不太复杂的问题。 二、精神要放松，情绪要自控 最易导致紧张、焦虑和恐惧心理的是入场后与答卷前的“临战”阶段，此时保持心态平衡的方法有三种：①转移注意法②自我安慰法③抑制思维法 三、迅速摸透“题情” 刚拿到试卷，一般心情比较紧张，不忙匆匆作答，可先从头到尾、正面反面通览全卷，尽量从卷面上获取最多的信息，为实施正确的解题策略作全面调查，一般可在十分钟之内做完三件事： 1.顺利解答那些一眼看得出结论的简单选择或填空题(一旦解出，情绪立即会稳定)。 2.对不能立即作答的题目，可一面通览，一面粗略分为A、B两类：A类指题型比较熟悉、估计上手比较容易的题目，B类是题型比较陌生、自我感觉比较困难的题目。 3.做到三个心中有数：对全卷一共有几道大小题有数，防止漏做题，对每道题各占几分心中有数，大致区分一下哪些属于代数题，哪些属于高数题，哪些属于概率题。

在职艺术硕士（MFA）全国联考英文阅读理解-试卷12 (总分：50.00，做题时间：90分钟) 一、英文阅读理解题(总题数：5，分数：50.00) In the world of entertainment, TV talk shows have undoubtedly flooded every inch of space on daytime television. And anyone who watches them regularly knows that each one varies in style and format. But no two shows are more profoundly opposite in content, while at the same time standing out above the rest, than the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey shows. Jerry Springer could easily be considered the king of "trash talk (废话)". The topics on his show are as shocking as shocking can be. For example, the show takes the ever-common talk show themes of love, sex, cheating, guilt, hate, conflict and morality to a different level. Clearly, the Jerry Springer show is a display and exploitation of society"s moral catastrophes (灾难)， yet people are willing to eat up the intriguing predicaments (困境) of other people"s lives. Like Jerry Springer, Oprah Winfrey takes TV talk show to its extreme, but Oprah goes in the opposite direction. The show focuses on the improvement of society and an individual"s quality of life. Topics range from teaching your children responsibility, managing your work week, to getting to know your neighbors. Compared to Oprah, the Jerry Springer show looks like poisonous waste being dumped on society. Jerry ends every show with a "final word". He makes a small speech that sums up the entire moral of the show. Hopefully, this is the part where most people will learn something very valuable. Clean as it is, the Oprah show is not for everyone. The show"s main target audience are middle-class Americans. Most of these people have the time, money, and stability to deal with life"s tougher problems. Jerry Springer, on the other hand, has more of an association with the young adults of society. These are 18 to 21-year-olds whose main troubles in life involve love, relationship, sex, money and peers. They are the ones who see some value and lessons to be learned underneath the show"s exploitation. While the two shows are as different as night and day, both have ruled the talk show circuit for many years now. Each one caters to a different audience while both have a strong following from large groups of fans. Ironically, both could also be considered pioneers in the talk show world. (388 words)（分数：10.00） (1).Compared with other TV talk shows, both the Jerry Springer and the Oprah Winfrey are______.（分数：2.00） A.more family-oriented B.unusually popular √ C.more profound D.relatively formal 解析： (2).Though the social problems Jerry Springer talks about appear distasteful, the audience ______.（分数：2.00） A.remain fascinated by them √ B.are ready to face up to them C.remain indifferent to them D.are willing to get involved in them 解析： (3).Which of the following is likely to be a topic of the Oprah Winfrey show?（分数：2.00） A.A new type of robot. B.Racist hatred. C.Family budget planning. √ D.Street violence. 解析：

在职艺术硕士(MFA)全国联考英文阅读理解历年真题试卷汇编6
在职艺术硕士（MFA）全国联考英文阅读理解历年真题试卷汇编 6 (总分：30.00，做题时间：90分钟) 一、英文阅读理解题(总题数：3，分数：30.00) Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take the friendship for granted, we often don"t clearly understand how we make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few. For example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interest vary enormously. As we get to know people we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position , and intelligence. Although these factors are not of prime importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background. Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, to have attitudes and interests in common—they often talk about "being on the same wavelength". It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they rely on one another. People want to do friends favors and hate to break a promise. Equally, friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to tolerate differences of opinion. In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.（分数：10.00） (1).According to the author, ______.（分数：2.00） A.all those who get on well with each other are friends B.friends are closer than people who just get on well with each other √ C.everyone understands clearly how to make friends D.every student has 6 friends 解析：解析：这是一道考查细节的题型。文中首段提到“…we often don’t clearly under—stand how we make friends．While we get on well with a number of people，we are usuallyfriends with only a very few．For example，the average among students is about 6 per per—son．”可推出选项A、C 和D都不符合题意。含有绝对语气的词不能作为答案，A、C、D中含有all，everyone，every，意思太过绝对，也应首先排除。因此只有选项B正确。 (2).When we make friends, we consider such things as age, race, and background, because______.（分数：2.00） A.it is not easy to have a friendly relationship with people when there is a marked difference in age and background √ B.the degree of friendship between two people and the reasons for their shared interest can vary greatly C.friends need to know all these things D.these are the most important factors to make friends 解析：解析：这也是一道考查细节的题型。从首段最后一句“Although these factors arenot of prime importance，it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a markeddifference in age and background．”可以看出选项A是符合题意的，选项B、C和D都比较片面。 (3).In Paragraph 2, "being on the same wavelength" means______.（分数：2.00） https://www.360docs.net/doc/635209678.html,ing the same frequency while talking

在职艺术硕士（MFA）全国联考英文阅读理解-试卷8 (总分：40.00，做题时间：90分钟) 一、英文阅读理解题(总题数：4，分数：40.00) Do you know how to use a mobile phone (手机) without being rude to the people around you? Talking during a performance irritates (激怒) people. If you are expecting an emergency call, sit near the exit doors and set your phone to vibrate (振动. When your mobile phone vibrates, you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance. Think twice before using mobile phones in elevators, museums, churches or other indoor public places—especially enclosed spaces. Would you want to listen to someone"s conversation in these places? Worse yet, how would you feel if a mobile phone rang suddenly during a funeral! It happens more often than you think. Avoid these embarrassing situations by making sure your mobile phone is switched off. When eating at a restaurant with friends, don"t place your mobile phone on the table. This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you. Mobile phones have sensitive microphones that allow you to speak at the volume you would on a regular phone. This enables you to speak quietly so that others won"t hear the details of your conversations. If you are calling from a noisy area, use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone. Many people believe that they can"t live without their mobile phone. Owning a mobile phone definitely makes life more convenient, but limit your conversations to urgent ones and save the personal calls until you are at home. (253 words)（分数：10.00） (1).What should you do when you need to answer a phone call during a performance?（分数：2.00） A.Call back after the performance. B.Answer it near the exit door. C.Talk outside the exit door. √ D.Speak in a low voice. 解析：解析：本题属于事实细节题。题干中提到“need to answer”，所以“演出结束后回电话”便为时已晚，因此A不符合题意；B“在靠近出口的地方接听”，“靠近出口”还是在演出现场，与原文不符；D“低声接听电话”同样会影响周围观众观看演出，与原文不符。文章第二段末句说“When your mobile phone vibrates，you can leave quietly and let the others enjoy the performance．”(当电话振动时，你可以悄悄地离开，让其他人继续欣赏节目。)可见，在观看演出时，如果必须接电话，最好离开演出现场到外面接听，因此选C。 (2).Putting your mobile phone on a restaurant table may make your friends think（分数：2.00） A.you prefer to talk to your friends at the table B.you value your calls more than your friends √ C.you are enjoying the company of your friends D.you are polite and considerate of your friends 解析：解析：本题属于事实细节题。文章第四段第二句说“This conveys the message that your phone calls are more important than those around you．”(这样做就表示你的电话比在座的各位都重要。)这与B 的意思一致。A“你喜欢和朋友在就餐时谈话”与手机无关，可以排除；C“你对朋友的陪伴很高兴”，文章没有提及；D“你对朋友礼貌和体谅朋友”与事实相反。 (3).When you are calling in a noisy area, you are advised to______.（分数：2.00） https://www.360docs.net/doc/635209678.html,e a more sensitive microphone B.shout loudly into your microphone C.go away quietly to continue the phone call https://www.360docs.net/doc/635209678.html,e your hand to help speak into the phone √ 解析：解析：本题属于事实细节题。文章第五段末句说“If you are calling from a noisy area，use your hand to direct your voice into the microphone．”(如果在嘈杂环境中接听电话，要用你的手帮助你

在职艺术硕士MFA全国联考英文阅读理解 试卷7
在职艺术硕士（MFA）全国联考英文阅读理解-试卷7 (总分：40.00，做题时间：90分钟) 一、英文阅读理解题(总题数：4，分数：40.00) Sign has become a scientific hot button. Only in the past 20 years have specialists in language study realized that signed languages are unique—a speech of the hand. They offer a new way to probe how the brain generates and understands language, and throw new light on an old scientific controversy： whether language, complete with grammar, is something that we are born with, or whether it is a learned behavior. The current interest in sign language has roots in the pioneering work of one rebel teacher at Gallaudet University in Washington, D.C., the worlds only liberal arts university for deaf people. When Bill Stokoe went to Gallaudet to teach English, the school enrolled him in a course in signing. But Stokoe noticed something odd: among themselves, students signed differently from his classroom teacher. Stokoe had been taught a sort of gestural code, each movement of the hands representing a word in English. At the time, American Sign Language (ASL) was thought to be no more than a form of pidgin English (混杂英语). But Stokoe believed the hand talk his students used looked richer. He wondered: Might deaf people actually have a genuine language? And could that language be unlike any other on Earth? It was 1955, when even deaf people dismissed their signing as substandard. Stokoes idea was academic heresy(异端邪说). It is 37 years later. Stokoe—now devoting his time to writing and editing books and journals and to producing video materials on ASL and the deaf culture—is having lunch at a cafe near the Gallaudet campus and explaining how he started a revolution. For decades educators fought his idea that signed languages are natural languages like English, French and Japanese. They assumed language must be based on speech, the modulation (调节) of sound. But sign language is based on the movement of hands, the modulation of space. What I said, Stokoe explains, is that language is not mouth stuff—its brain stuff. (340 words)（分数：10.00） (1).The study of sign language is thought to be______.（分数：2.00） A.a new way to look at the learning of language B.a challenge to traditional views on the nature of language √ C.an approach to simplifying the grammatical structure of a language D.an attempt to clarify misunderstanding about the origin of language 解析：解析：本题属于细节推断题。这篇文章开头介绍了手语研究的进展以及意义，“进展”指过去的20年研究人员发现了手语的独特性(realized that signed languages are unique)，意义是指手语的这一发现为研究大脑如何应用与理解语言开辟了新的方向(a new way to probe how the brain generates and understands language)，同时为一个古老的科学论题带来了新的希望：语言到底是天生的还是后天习得的(whether language…is something that we are born with，or whether it is a learned behavior)。可知答案为B。 (2).The present growing interest in sign language was stimulated by______.（分数：2.00） A.a famous scholar in the study of the human brain B.a leading specialist in the study of liberal arts C.an English teacher in a university for the deaf √ D.some senior experts in American Sign Language 解析：解析：本题属于细节理解题。题目问的是，当前对手语的越来越高涨的兴趣是由谁激发的。第一段段末和第二段段首给我们介绍了一位先驱人物Stokoe的基本信息：华盛顿特区一所聋人大学的教师。他在学校教授英语。对照选项，
