2020考研英语一题目

都说考研英语的真题要多做几遍多研究，那这几遍到底应该怎么做呢？怎么研究真题才能让它利用率达到最大呢？小编在本文总结了一下英语真题到底应该怎么做、做几遍，希望给大家带来帮助。一、按考试模式练习在掌握考研英语基础知识后，要尽快开始考研英语真题复习。第一遍的时候就要严格按照考试时间，并且创造一个最贴近考试的环境来完成真题。试题每一部分都要认真做好，包括作文部分也要认真书写。做完真题后考生可对照参考答案，对自己的做题效果做一个简单的自我评估，并仔细对照。正确了解自身的英语实力，在此基础上，着手准备相对应的复习计划。二、翻译真题并整理长难句做完题目之后要对原文进行翻译，翻译时无需逐字逐句，但要将“解题域”部分的长难句准确无误地翻译出来。通过这个过程纠正自己的翻译思维，提高翻译能力。如果翻译的不正确，别气馁，努力找出原因并加以改正。如果是单词中的“一词多义”造成的翻译障碍，词典可以帮助同学们。如果这个句子是长难句，我们更需要花大量的时间来理解，找出各个句子成分，并掌握句式原理。提醒大家，真题中的经典长难句要尽量整理到笔记本中，便于作为后期的写作素材。三、分析错误选项做完题目并正确修正以后，要分析出题人为什么设置某些错误选项，这些错误的选项是否有可辨别的特征。我们可以把自己放到出题人的角度来对待错误选项，如果单纯的从考生的角度思考错误选择项，很可能会百思不得其解，而在把握原文的基础之上把自己看成出题人情况就会很不同。这是提高考试能力的一个很重要的方法，经过一系列的训练能从出题人的思路把握选择项的时候，就是我们真正的知彼知己，拿下考研英语的时候。四、再次模拟真题最后再像第一遍那样去做历年真题，总结出题技巧以及自己的应对策略。这一遍做题目的是再次深化贴近出题人思维方式，争取达到自己看到一篇文章时，看题目之前就大致知道会出哪方面的题。应试策略和前面几遍的分析是分不开的，做好前四遍的复习，第五遍你定会有惊喜发现。真题往往需要考生们反复分析，且每次都有不同的方法和重点。掌握正确复习方法考生才能循序渐进不断进步，直到将真题吃透。大家做的过程中，注意使用铅笔去图画，尽量少留点痕迹在卷面上，或者也可以把你的真题试卷拆分下来，拿到打印店进行复印，特别是一些网上打印店，价格通常比线下的便宜很多。

嗨，这里是小恬的第8篇文章。前几天有些感冒，于是断更。现继续跟大家分享一些内容，也是对自己的督促。今日主要内容是真题中完型和阅读一内不容易掌握的单词、短语，当然只是小恬个人经验，希望有所帮助。一、完型：it was the case事实上it was once the case在以前partaken of 吃serve up 端上来come across as 看上去像 / 听起来像 / 给人的感觉是just end up with最终只会是……结果 / 最终只会以……结束/最终只会culinary 烹饪的render呈现spurn摈弃compound化合物neurological神经学的carcinogenic致癌的cancerigenic(肿瘤)致癌的precautionary预先警示的exhortantion训道词nannying保姆的resemblance相似之处reluctantly不情愿地，勉强地二、阅读一be confined to局限在for a spell持续一阵子sought-after广受欢迎的high-profile高调的self-deceiving 自我欺骗的post-Brexit 英国脱欧后(post ……之后Br 英国；exit 出)endeavour to do竭力commit to投入于prestigious有声望的prominence突出，锋芒，高潮oynic愤世嫉俗的reinvent改造，革新speculate推测aspiration意愿，愿望nudge推动comsolidate巩固bolder大胆的skeptical怀疑的

考场外前情提要首先，替大伙吐槽一句：考场的桌椅是不是有点反人类设计？两场下来感觉腰要断了、腿要折了？然后，再说一说2020考研英语最真实的“做题历程”！很多学霸算是有史以来第一次这么无助！具体如下图。看来还不是一两个人觉得英语难！多少学生全程来回翻卷子，然后说：“什么玩意？”一样的！学霸最拿手的阅读都做崩了！哎！做第一篇 ？嗯？怎么有点难！在做第二篇的时候，自己已经瞌睡了，难度加大，算了！七选五是自己的最爱？是不是题目和答案有误？怎么对不上？怎么办？算了！还是回头蒙阅读！2020考研英语，最真实的“做题历程”！出考场的小情景把前几年的新题型都做了一遍的学生，一般感觉都能全对，结果今天都看不懂！除此之外，在提前交卷以后，当事人怕自己的大棉袄碰到一个大兄弟的卷子，于是就小心翼翼地拽着衣服一点一点地往外走。结果那大哥抓着他的衣服把他往外一推，他当时一脸懵逼，而且那家伙还瞪了他一眼，是抄答案了，还是站在那半分钟影响你答题了？越想越气！ 考研人：是我本人裸考的都觉得英语一奇难，英语二稍好！本来裸考英语的人应该不会有什么感觉，但是2020裸考考研英语的就怕了！他们不会在做不出来的题上面浪费大量时间，然而今年的题却让他们觉得时间不够！而且到后面才发现剩下的都是难的题目，自己都不会做！清华大学但是英语二的难度还是能感觉出来的，翻译大约是初中水平，作文也挺好写的，起码没有不会表达的词语。阅读难度感觉没有六级得劲，其实刚做完型的时候，你应该有点不敢相信这是考研英语吧？我寻思裸考选手应该基本上都不认识才对！考场用具小作文没落款？估计那些裸考选手就想对答案，反正明天专业课那么多本书，也背不完了！他们甚至还在担心小作文没落款怎么办？扣多少？如果是全没落款就扣1分，落了一半款则扣0.5分！ 小作文没落款在评分时属于“格式和语域”基本合理，是评分标准的第三档，最多扣一两分哦！没关系的！去年考英语一的很多人写信没落款，照样68分！考完就不用管了！2020考研考场外小作文考完，有人写完发现是告示，有人写完也没发现是告示，有人写完了也不知道是不是告示。不慌不慌！去年你们的学长写小作文没署名，大作文写偏题，最后69分！不要在无谓的事情上纠缠，学会放弃才能往前走！考完英语后考试历程（搞笑版）天生愚笨，资质不好，师父说“徒儿莫怕，为师传你速成功法”。于是你潜心修行，夜以继日。最终，风流倜傥的你执笔坐于考研试卷旁，相看两茫茫。这厮诡谲狡诈，一下镇住了你，“难不成这就是所谓的一物降一物？莫怕莫怕，且看你打破传统思维。”于是你一路对敌卷糊涂乱画，偷工减料，胡编乱造。无敌的你终笑傲到试卷末尾。附录英语已经过去，大家要听肖爷爷的劝告：考研政治结束，有人选6个“ABCD”？肖秀荣却叮嘱：别讨论答案！

2020年考研英语结束后很多学生在感叹：今年英语试题太难了，考生们纷纷表示考研英语阅读理解难度难出新高度，新题型难度也比往年要大。但是我们客观理性的分析，从历年考研英语结束后考生们的反映来看，每年考生考完英语后都会有相似的反应，那就是每年考生都会觉得自己年份的英语试题难度大。这里面既有考生个人发挥的因素影响，也有眼光局限的问题。由于考生没有经历过多次考研，因此很难真正判断考研英语真题的难度如何。2020考研英语试题难度太大？考研英语国家线变化都有哪些规律？考研英语不管难度如何变化，作文、翻译、完形填空难度基本难度变化不大，其实考生感觉考研难度大的也仅仅是考研英语阅读理解而已，另外新题型很多学生觉得难，但是这部分题对考生分数影响有限，一方面是因为分值比较低，另一方面是因为即使题简单，考生也很少做全对，即使题变难了，考生也可能会做正确三个左右，因此新题型试题难度变化对考生最后成绩影响不大，反而是考研英语阅读理解难度对考生最后成绩影响比较大。因此尽管很多考生都在吐槽2020考研英语太难了，认为考研英语阅读理解难度比较大，比去年考研英语阅读理解难度高，但是客观理性地讲难度也没有高出太多，整体难度没有高出往年多少，只能说难度高了一些，但是并不能说太难，考生复习到位还是能够得出正确答案，考出理想的成绩。既然考研英语难度不是太大，那么考研英语国家线变化都有哪些规律呢？根据自己对考研的研究，认为总体上讲考研英语国家线变化有三个基本规律，一是考研英语国家线如果上涨或者下降，变化幅度大概在1-5分范围以内。从近10年考研英语国家线变化来看，基本上如果考研国家线上升最多也是提高5分。二是考研英语国家线很少连续几年一直提高，考虑到2019年考研英语国家线大部分专业已经提高，因此判断2020考研英语国家线会继续提高的可能性并不是很大，但是很可能会保持在2019年的水平。三是经管类专业和文学专业考研英语国家线一直为各个专业最高，理工科专业考研英语国家线比较低，即使上升也是在0分多一点，对于理工科学生难度不大，农学这些冷门专业考研英语国家线最低，考生压力最小。

嗨，这里是小恬的第四篇文章。前天的文章收藏量还在增加，谢谢大家的喜欢！另外昨天发文后又得到一枚关注，小恬在此献上小心心~今天天气晴朗，小恬正晒着太阳敲下这些文字，真希望阳光的温暖可以通过文字存取，好传给点开这篇文章的你。以前一直听人说，高考残酷，如同千军万马挤独木桥。但现在以为，比起高考，考研又要更残忍，因为我们没有战友，只能孤军奋战。很有可能不但得不到老师指点、同学陪伴、家长支持，而且遇到各种不解、冷落乃至嘲讽。另外，在这场没有硝烟的战争中，我们也许甚至不知敌人是何面目。且不论公共课大纲年年变，专业课许多院校也不提供参考书目、历年真题。好不容易找到的学长学姐，提供的笔记、讲义等资料不全也罢了，有的甚至坐地起价。初试之后还有复试、调剂在前方等着我们，要拼我们的毕业学校、我们的本科成绩、我们的口语水平、我们的综合素养。我们独自跋山涉水，奔赴自以为的战场，沿途只有单调与荒芜；敌人如幽灵般隐在暗处，时时布下迷阵，侵扰我们的内心。我们以为拔剑之时它会现身与我们一战高下，殊不知，战场上的厮杀之前，它早已埋伏；厮杀之后，它仍阴魂不散。但无论再难，我们选择了这条路，走下去便是了。把那些委屈和泪水，甩在路旁，留在身后。我们走在阳光下，抓住每个瞬间，耐心修炼。也许到很久很久以后，我们一路升级、打怪，偶一回头，眼中所及，皆是茂盛花海。文本三进步人士一般支持多样化授权管理，作为通往平等的路径和创造公平竞技场的方式。但通常这些政策都是虚假的美德信号，只为特权阶层谋福利，而对普通民众毫无帮助。一对由马赛诸塞州参议员杰森·刘易斯和众议院临时议长帕特丽夏·哈达德发起的议案，即确保董事会和委员会的“性别平等”，提供了一个很好的例证。哈达德和刘易斯担心，一半以上州政府董事会的女性成员都不到百分之四十。为了保证精英女性有更多这样的机会，他们提议实行政府配额。如果这些提案变成法律，各州董事会和委员会将在2022年之前被要求为女性留出百分之五十的席位。这些提案就像加利福尼亚州最近采取的一项措施，它去年成为第一个要求私营企业实行性别配额的州。签署这项措施时，加州州长杰里·布朗承认这条法则，它明确地把人按性别分类，极有可能违宪。美国最高法院反对以性别为基础的分类，除非这些分类旨在解决一项“重要的”政治利益。因为这条加州法则适用于所有董事会，即便是先前没有歧视历史的地方，法院可能裁定，这项法则违反了平等保护这一宪法保障。但是这样的政府指令有必要吗？目前董事会上的女性参与可能并不反映女性在总人口中的比例，但那又如何？没有政府干预，女性在董事会中的人数也在稳步增长。根据一项Catalyst公司（一家关注职业女性的非营利组织）的研究，2010至2015年间全球企业董事会的女性份额增长了百分之五十四。要求企业将性别作为董事会成员的基本资质要求将不可避免地导致缺乏经验的私营机构董事会。这正是挪威实施全国性的企业性别配额时发生的事情。在《新共和》中，爱丽丝·李注意到，增加董事会成员的机会数量，而不增加有资格在这些董事会任职的女性库存，已经导致“金裙子”现象，同样的精英女性在各种董事会上占据多个席位。下次如果有人以推动企业配额作为促进性别平等的方式，记住这些政策大部分是自私的举措，让它们的提出者感觉良好，但对普通女性毫无帮助。31.作者认为刘易斯和哈达德提出的议案将——A、对减少性别偏见几乎没有帮助B、对州政府构成威胁C、提升女性的政治地位D、极大地拓宽职业选择32.以下关于加利福尼亚的举措哪项是对的？A、它激怒了私营企业主B、它受到最高法院的欢迎C、它可能违宪D、它将平息先前的争端33.作者提及Catalyst的研究是为了说明——A、董事会随意决断的危害B、宪法保障的重要性C、全球企业中女性的压力D、政府干预的不必要34.挪威的全国性企业女性配额的采用导致了——A、对精英女性作用的低估B、对董事会上女性参与者的反对C、董事会不合格人选的进入D、劳资双方日益紧张的关系35.以下哪项可以从文本中推断出？A、女性的就业需求应该被考虑B、可行性应该在决策中优先考虑C、每个人都应该努力促进社会公正D、主要社会矛盾应该是立法的重点

嗨，这是小恬的第二篇文章。上一篇有几个评论，因时间和精力所限，就在这里回复一下啦，之前的没有看到也不要紧，就当我在碎碎念。一，关于要不要学英语。首先，考研初试满分500，英语100分，占比五分之一，自然要学；其次，语言作为一种交流媒介，可以超越空间与时间界限，即便不出国不重生也可以通过它与国外的大师、去世的哲人交流、学习；最后，日常生活中如果看外文书、外国电影，对英语多少了解的话也更容易理解，即便是娱乐活动也能得到更深入的体验，拓展时间的厚度。二，备考进度无需与他人比较，适合自己的才是最好。小恬自己也只是记录学习过程，相当于打卡。最近似乎有点懈怠了，不好意思在熟人面前刷存在感，于是跑到没人认识的地方发文章，为的是那种有人在监督我的错觉，给自己施加小小的压力。三，谢谢陌生人的鼓励，祝你生活愉快、万事顺遂——也送给正看这篇文章的你。第二部分 阅读理解A部分阅读以下四篇文章。选择A、B、C或者D回答每篇文章下的问题。将答案标记在答题卡上。（40分）文本一一群工党议员，他们之中有伊薇特·库珀，准备用成立一个英国文化之镇奖项的呼吁迎来新年。提案说，这一奖项应该比肩现有的文化之城称号，在2017年由赫尔举办，并被授予给考文垂。库珀和她的同事们认为，赫尔的成功，在那里带来了两亿两千万欧元的投资和艺术的雪崩，不会局限于城市。英国的小镇，确实没有被阻止申请，但它们一般缺少资源抱团打败更强大的竞争对手。一个文化之镇可以，提案认为，成为一大年度盛事，吸引资金并创造就业机会。有些人也许将这个提议视为笑柄，因为事实上英国不再能够申请更有声望的头衔，即欧洲文化之都，一个1990年被格拉斯哥、2008年被利物浦收割的广受欢迎的奖项。一个愤世嫉俗的人也许推断，在英国脱欧后的世界，出于对重塑自我的失望，英国沉迷于无尽的自我庆祝的狂热之中，正处于迷失的边缘。继文化之镇之后，谁知道后面会有什么——文化之村，文化之郊，文化小村？使人们知道这些头衔不是万灵丹也是明智的。一个经营不善的文化之年对一个地方里里外外的冲洗就像潮水，带来一段时间的名望，却不能给社会留下持久的利益。这些头衔真正成功的持有者是那些做大事的，而不是在一年之内塞满旅馆、高调的艺术活动和媒体的赞誉。他们改变当地居民的愿望；他们推动城市的自我形象向更大胆、更乐观的方向。做好很难，且需要非凡的视野，以及城市当局、私营部门、社区组织和文化团体之间的合作。但这可以做到：作为欧洲文化之都的格拉斯哥年，完全可以看到是这个城市至今依然留存着艺术、音乐和戏剧力量的一系列复杂的因素之一。一个文化之镇不应该仅仅关乎艺术，而应该尊敬它的特性，帮助支撑它的商业街、支持本地设施，并且最重要的，使那里的人民欢乐，最后把它变为行动。21.库珀和她的同事认为一个“文化之镇”奖可以——A、巩固英国的城镇关系 B、促进英国小镇之间的合作C、增强英国小镇的经济实力 D、将英国有限的资源集中于文化活动22.根据第二段，提议也许会被某些人视为——A、一个理智的妥协 B、一个自欺的尝试C、一个吸睛的红利 D、一个难以达成的目标23.作者暗示一个头衔拥有者只会在——情况下成功A、竭力维持它的形象 B、满足它人民的意愿C、使当地艺术崛起 D、投身于长期增长24.格拉斯哥在第三段中是作为——被提及A、一个相反的案例 B、一个支持的例证C、一个背景故事 D、一个相关的话题25.作者对这一提议的态度是什么？A、怀疑的 B、客观的 C、赞成的 D、批评的

目前已经进入四月份，很多准备考研的学生现在正在努力复习各个科目，而在考研当中英语试题难度基本上最大，因此不少考生都把考研精力投入在英语的复习上面，但是很多考生由于基础知识比较差，单词也不过关，导致在做考研英语真题的时候错误率非常高，有一些考生一篇考研英语阅读理解就只对了一个，考生感觉考研英语真题难度太大，不知道考研英语该如何复习。在此作为大学老师，认为今年考生还是需要从2020考研英语真题变化中寻找复习方向，才能对考生有启示。那么2020考研英语真题都有哪些变化呢？主要三大变化。第一大变化，阅读理解难度顺序变化。在之前的考研英语阅读理解真题中，基本上前2篇阅读理解难度一般，考生基本上都很容易得出答案。但是2020考研英语一的前两篇阅读理解阅读起来非常困难，而且有不少考生生疏的单词，更加增加了考生解题的难度。很多基本功差的考生在考场上看到题就心里不知所措，甚至直接放弃解题。而考研英语阅读的后面2篇阅读理解难度反而比较低，句子难度不大，考生容易看出句子意思，试题选项设置没有太大难度，反而容易做对。可见阅读理解难度顺序有变化。第二大变化，新题型难度略有上升。实际上历年考研英语真题的新题型都是有一定难度的，但是2020考研难度还是稍微大一些，尤其是在当时考场环境下考生在做完阅读理解后，心理状态紧张，进而做新题型更容易出错。在新题型中各个选项之间考生往往排除剩下两个以后，基本上就不知道该选择哪一个，选项之间犹豫不定，需要考生有足够做题经验。第三大变化，英语翻译部分词汇更加考察学生基本功。比如很多考研学生看到2020考研英语翻译真题后，对“文艺复兴”单词不认识，但是要知道该词汇是考研英语大纲单词，考生是需要记住的。而如果一个关键词汇考生不认识，很容易之后的翻译都会出错。这也是很多考生今年考研分数低的愿意之一。那么以上这些变化，对考生复习都有哪些启示呢？作为老师，认为主要有三点启示。一是考生复习需要主要英语单词过关。词汇量是基础，不认识单词，阅读理解和翻译很容易做错，想得高分都很难。二是注重考研英语阅读理解练习。考研英语阅读难度比较大，但是并不是不容易得高分，实际上2020考研英语四篇阅读理解还是很容易得高分的。考生今后复习需要注重阅读理解做题技巧总结，多尝试运用考生总结的方法。三是复习时要注意做题时间和做题顺序。考研英语考试时间三个小时，但是大部分考生还是感觉时间不够用，说明平时做题没有时间意识。而且从2020考研英语真题变化可以看到，做题并不一定要遵循阅读理解第一篇做到第四篇的顺序，可以先做简单的然后再做难的。

Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. Mark your answers on the ANSWER SHEET. (40 points)Text 1A group of labour MPs, among them Yvette Cooper, are bringing in the new year with a call to institute a UK "town of culture" award. The proposal is that it should sit alongside the existing city of culture title, which was held by Hull in 2017 and has been awarded to Coventry for Zozl. Cooper and her colleagues argue that the success of the crown for Hull, where it brought in220m of investment and an avalache of arts, out not to be confined to cities.Britain' town, it is true are not prevented from applying, but they generally lack the resources to put together a bit to beat their bigger competitions. A town of culture award could, it is argued, become an annual event, attracting funding and creating jobs.Some might see the proposal as a boo by prize for the fact that Britain is no longer be able to apply for the much more prestigious title of European capital of culture, a sought-after award bagged by Glasgow in 1990 and Livorpool in 2008. "A cynic might speculate that the UK is on the verge of disappearing into an endless fever of self-celebration in its desperation to reinvent itself for the post-Brexit world: after town of culture, who knows that will follow-village of culture? Suburb of culture? Hamlet of culture?It is also wise to recall that such titles are not a cure-all. A badly run "year of culture"washes in and out of a place like the tide, bringing prominence for a spell but leaving no lasting benefits to the community. The really successful holders of such titles are those that do a great deal more than fill hotel bedrooms and bring in high-profile arts events and good press for a year. They transform the aspirations of the people who live there; they nudge the self-image of the city into a bolder and more optimistic light.It is hard to get right, and requires a remarkable degree of vision, as well as cooperation between city authorities, the private sector, community groups and cultural organisations. But it can be done: Glasgow's year as European capital of culture can certainly be seen as one of complex series of factors that have turned the city into the power of art, music and theatre that it remains today.A "town of culture" could be not just about the arts but about honouring a town's peculiarities-helping sustain its high street, supporting local facilities and above all celebrating its people and turn it into action.21. Cooper and her colleagues argue that a "town of culture" award could [A] consolidate the town-city ties in Britain.[B] promote cooperation among Britain's towns.[C] increase the economic strength of Britain's towns.[D] focus Britain's limited resources on cultural events.22. According to Paragraph 2, the proposal might be regarded by some as [A] a sensible compromise.[B] a self-deceiving attempt.[C] an eye-cotching bonus.[D] an inaccessible target.23. The author suggests that a title holder is successful only if it [A] endeavours to maintain its image.[B] meets the aspirations of its people.[C] brings its local arts to prominence.[D] commits to its long-term growth.24. Glasgow is mentioned in Paragraph 3 to present [A] a contrasting case.[B] a supporting example.[C]a background story.[D] a related topic.25. What is the author's attitude towards the proposal?[A] Skeptical[B] Objective[C] Favourable[D] Critical答案（21-25）21.D focus Britain's limited resources on cultural events.22.B a self-deceiving attempt.23.D commits to its long-term growth.24.B a supporting example.25.C Favourable.Text2Scientific publishing has long been a licence to print money, Scientists need journals in which to publish their research, so they will supply the articles without monetary reward. Other scientists perform the specialised work of peer review also for free, because it is a central element in the acquisition of status and the proction of scientific knowledge.With the content of papers secured for free, the publisher needs only find a market for its journal. Until this century, university libraries were not very price sensitive. Scientific publishers routinely report profit margins approaching 40% on their operations, at a time when the rest of the publishing instry is in an existential crisis.The Dutch giant Elsevier, which claims to publish 25% of the scientific papers proced in the world, made profits of more than f 900m last year, while UK universities alone spent more than f 210m in 2016 to enable researchers to access their own publicly funded research;both figures seem to rise unstoppably despite increasingly desperate efforts to change them.The most drastic, and thoroughly illegal, reaction has been the emergence of Sci-Hub, a kind of global photocopier for scientific papers, set up in 2012, which now claims to offer access to every pay walled article published since 2015. The success of Sci-Hub, which relies on researchers passing on copies they have themselves legally accessed, shows the legal ecosystem has lost legitimacy among its users and must be transformed so that it works for all participants.In Britain the move towards open access publishing has been driven by funding bodies.In some ways it has been very successful. More than half of all British scientific research is now published under open access terms; either freely available from the moment of publication,or pay walled for a year or more so that the publishers can make a profit before being placed on general release.Yet the new system has not worked out any cheaper for the universities. Publishers have responded to the demand that they make their proct free to readers by charging their writers fees to cover the costs of preparing an article. These range from around500 to $5,000.A report last year pointed out that the costs both of subscriptions and of these "article preparation costs" had been steadily rising at a rate above inflation.In some ways the scientific publishing model resembles the economy of the social internet:labour is provided free in exchange for the hope of status, while huge profits are made by a few big firms who run the market places. In both cases, we need a rebalancing of power.26. Scientific publishing is seen as "a licence to print money" partly because [A] its funding has enjoyed a steady increase.[B] its marketing strategy has been successful.[C] its payment for peer review is reced.[D] its content acquisition costs nothing.!27. According to Paragraphs 2 and 3, scientific publishers Elsevier have [A] thrived mainly on university libraries.[B] gone through an existential crisis.[C] revived the publishing instry.[D] financed researchers generously.28. How does the author feel about the success of Sci-Hub? [A] Relieved.[B] Puzzled.[C] Concerned.[D] Encouraged.29. It can be learned from Paragraphs 5 and 6 that open access terms [A] allow publishers some room to make money.[B] render publishing much easier for scientists.[C] rece the cost of publication substantially.[D] free universities from financial burdens.30. Which of the following characterises the scientific publishing model?[A] Trial subscription is offered.[B] Labour triumphs over status.[C]Costs are well controlled.[D] The few feed on the many.答案（26-30）26.D its content acquisition costs nothing.27.A thrived mainly on university libraries.28.D Encouraged.29.A allow publishers some room to make money.30.D The few feed on the many.Text 3Progressives often support diversity mandates as a path to equality and a way to level the playing field. But all too often such policies are an insincere form of virtue-signaling that benefits only the most privileged and does little to help average people.A pair of bills sponsored by Massachusetts state Senator Jason Lewis and House Speaker Pro Tempore Patricia Haddad, to ensure "gender parity" on boards and commissions, provide a case in point.Haddad and Lewis are concerned that more than half the state-government board are lessthan40 percent female. In order to ensure that elite women have more such opportunities, they have proposed imposing government quotas. If the bills become law, state boards and commissions will be required to set aside 50 percent of board seats for women by 2022.The bills are similar to a measure recently adopted in Califomia, which last year became the first state to require gender quotas for private companies. In signing the measure, California Governor Jerry Brown admitted that the law, which expressly classifies people on the basis of sex, is probably unconstitutional.The US Supreme Court frowns on sex based classifications unless they are designed to address an "important" policy interest, Because the California law applies to all boards, even where there is no history of prior discrimination, courts are likely to rule that the law violates the constitutional guarantee of "equal protection".But are such government mandates even necessary? Female participation on corporate boards may not currently mirror the percentage of women in the general population, but so what?The number of women on corporate boards has been steadily increasing without government interference. According to a study by Catalyst, between 2010 and 2015 the share of women on the boards of global corporations increased by 54 percent.Requiring companies to make gender the primary qualification for board membership will inevitably lead to less experienced private sector boards. That is exactly what happened when Norway adopted a nationwide corporate gender quota.Writing in The New Republic, Alice Lee notes that increasing the number of opportunities for board membership without increasing the pool of qualified women to serve on such boards has led to a "golden skirt "phenomenon, where the same elite women scoop up multiple seats on a variety of boards.Next time somebody pushes corporate quotas as a way to promote gender equity,remember that such policies are largely self-serving measures that make their sponsors feelgood but do little to help average women.31.The author believes that the bills sponsored by Lewis and Haddad will [A] help little to rece gender bias.[B] pose a threat to the state government.[C] raise women's position in politics.[D] greatly broaden career options.32.

Which of the following can be inferred from the text?[A] Women's need in employment should be considered.[B] Feasibility, should be a prime concern in policy making.[C] Everyone should try hard to promote social justice.[D] Major social issues should be the focus of legislation.答案（31-35）31.A help little to rece gender bias.32.C It may go against the Constitution.33.D the needlessness of government interventions.34.C the entry of unqualified candidates into the board.35.B Feasibility should be a prime concern in policymaking.Text4 :Last Thursday, the French Senate passed a digital services tax, which would impose an entirely new tax on large multinationals that provide digital services to consumers or users in France. Digital services include everything from providing a platform for selling goods and services online to targeting advertising based on user data, and the tax applies to gross revenue from such services. Many French politicians and media outlets have referred to this as a"GAFA tax," meaning that it is designed to apply primarily to companies such as Google,Apple, Facebook and Amazon-in other words, multinational tech companies based in the United States.The digital services tax now awaits the signature of President Emmanuel Macron, who has expressed support for the measure, and it could go into effect within the next few weeks.But it has already sparked significant controversy, with the Unite Sates trade representative opening an investigation into whether the tax discriminates against American companies,which in turn could lead to trade sanctions against France.The French tax is not just a unilateral move by one country in need of revenue. Instead,the digital services tax is part of a much larger trend, with countries over the past few years proposing or putting in place an alphabet soup of new international tax provisions. These have included Britain's DPT (diverted profits tax).Australia's MAAL (multinational antiavoidance, law), and India's SEP (significant economic presence) test, to name but a few. At the same time, the European Union. Spain,Britain and several other countries have all seriously contemplated digital services taxes.These unilateral developments differ in their specifics, but they are all designed to tax multinationals on income and revenue that countries believe they should have a right to tax,even if international tax rules do not grant them that right. In other words, they all share a view that the international tax system has failed to keep up with the current economy.In response to these many unilateral measures, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) is currently working with 131 countries to reach aconsensus by the end of 2020 on an international solution. Both France and the United States are involved in the organization's work, but France's digital services tax and the American response raise questions about what the future holds for the international tax system.France's planned tax is a clear warning: Unless a broad consensus can be reached on reforming the international tax system, other nations are likely to follow suit, and American companies will face a cascade of different taxes from dozens of nations that will prove burdensome and costly.36.The French Senate has passed a bill to [A] regulate digital services platforms.[B] protect French companies interests.[C] impose a levy on tech multinationals.[D] curb the influence of advertising.37. It can be learned from Paragraph 2 that the digital services tax [A] may trigger countermeasures against France.[B] is apt to arouse criticism at home and abroad.[C] aims to ease international trade tensions.[D] will prompt the tech giants to quit France.38. The countries adopting the unilateral measures share the opinion that [A] redistribution of tech giants' revenue must be ensured.[B] the current international tax system needs upgrading.[C] tech multinationals' monopoly should be prevented.[D] all countries ought to enjoy equal taxing rights.39. It can be learned from Para 5 that the OECO's current work [A] is being resisted by US companies.[B] needs to be readjusted immediately.[C] is faced with uncertain prospects.[D] needs to in involve more countries.40. Which of the following might be the best title for this text?[A] France Is Confronted with Trade Sanctions[B] France leads the charge on Digital Tax[C] France Says "NO" to Tech Multinationals[D] France Demands a Role in the Digital Economy答案（36-40）36.C impose alevy on tech multinationals.37.A may trigger countermeasures against France.38.B the current international tax system needs upgrading39.C is faced with uncertain prospects.40.B France leads the charge on Digital TaxPart B Directions:In the following text, some sentences have been removed.

This mutual gaze is a major part of the attachment between mother and child. In althood, looking someone else in a pleasant way can be a complimentary sign of paying attention. It can catch someone's attention in a crowded room, "Eye contact and smile" can signal availability and confidence, a common-sense notion supported in studies by psychologist Monica Moore.42. Neuroscientist Bonnie Augeung found that the hormone oxytocin increased the amount of eye contact from men toward the interviewer ring a brief interview when the direction of their gaze was recorded. This was also found in high- functioning men with some autistic spectrum symptoms, who may tend to avoid eye contact. Specific brain regions that respond ring direct gaze are being explored by other researches, using advanced methods of brain scanning.43. With the use of eye-tracking technology, Julia Minson of the Harvard Kennedy School of Government concluded that eye contact can signal very different kinds of messages,depending on the situation. While eye contact may be a sign of connection or trust in friendly situations, it's more likely to be associated with dominance or intimidation in adversarial situations. "Whether you' re a politician or a parent, it might be helpful to keep in mind that trying to maintain eye contact may backfire if you' re trying to convince someone who has a different set of beliefs than you," said Minson.44. When we look at a face or a picture, our eyes pause on one spot at a time, often on the eyes or mouth. These pauses typically occur at about three per second, and the eyes then jump to another spot, until several important points in the image. are registered like a series of snapshots. How the whole image is then assembled and perceived is still a mystery although it is the subject of current research.45. In people who score high in a test of neuroticism, a personality dimension associated with self-consciousness and anxiety, eye contact triggered more activity associated with avoidance,according to the Finnish researcher Jari Hietanen and colleagues "Our findings indicate that people do not only feel different when they are the centre of attention but that their brain reactions also differ." A more direct finding is that people who scored high for negative emotions like anxiety looked at others for shorter periods of time and reported more comfortable feelings when others did not look directly at them.答案（41-45）41.

(10points)Following the explosion of creativity in Florence ring the 14h century known as the Renaissance, the modern world saw a departure from what it had once known. It turned from God and the authority of the Roman Catholic Church and instead favoured a more humanistic approach to being. Renaissance ideas had spread throughout Europe well into the 17h century,with the arts and sciences flourishing extraordinarily among those with a more logical disposition. (46) with the Church's teachings and ways of thinking eclipsed by the Renaissance,the gap between the Medieval and modern periods had been bridged leading to new and unexplored itellectual territories.During the Renaissance, the great minds of Nicolaus Copernicus, Johannes Kepler and Galileo Galilei demonstrated the power of scientific study and discovery. (47) Before each of their revelations many thinkers at the time had sustained more ancient ways of thinking.including the geo-centric view that the Earth was a the centre of our universe. Copernicus theorized in 1543 that all of the planets that we knew of revolved not around the Earth, but the Sun, a system that was later upheld by Galileo at his own expense. Offering up such a theory ring a time of high tension between scientific and religious minds was branded as heresy and any such heretics that continued to spread these lies were to be punished by imprisonment or even death.(48) Despite attempts by the Church to suppress. this new generation of logicians and rationalists, more explanations for how the universe functioned were being made at a rate that the people could no longer ignore.It was with these great revelations that a new kind of philosophy founded in reason was born.The Church's long- standing dogma was losing the great battle for truth to rationalists and scientists. This very fact embodied the new ways of thinking that swept through Europe ring most of 17h century. (49) As many took on the ty of trying to integrate reasoning and scientific philosophies into the world, the Renaissance was over and it was time for a new era-the Age of Reason.The 17h and I8h centuries were times of radical change and curiosity, Scientific method,rectionism and the questioning of Church ideals was to be encouraged, as were ideas of liberty, tolerance and progress. (50) Such actions to seek knowledge and to understand what information we already knew were captured by the Latin phrase' sapere aude' or dare to know',after Immanuel Kant used it in his essay" An Answer to the Question: What is Enlightenment?".It was the purpose and responsibility of great minds to go forth and seek out the truth, which they believed to be founded in knowledge.答案（46-50）46.随着教会的教义和思维方式在文艺复兴时期黯然失色，中世纪与现代之间的鸿沟得以弥合，从而出现了新的及尚未开发的知识领域。47.在每个真理揭示之前，当时的许多思想家都采用了更古老的思维方式，仍旧沿用以前的思维模式，其中包括认为地球是宇宙中心的地球中心说。48.尽管教会试图镇压这-代逻辑学家和理性主义者，但人们对宇宙如何运转的解释却越来越多，并且以-种不容忽视的速度在增加。49.当许多人承担起将理性科学的哲学融入世界的责任时，文艺复兴时代已经结束，并且开启了一个新的时代。50.此类寻求知识和了解已知信息的行为被拉丁语概括为：“sapere aude"即"敢于求知”作文Section ll WritingPart A51.

(20 points)写作分析1. 考题形式：图画作文图画作文在形式上延续过去十余年，范围上属于大纲明确范围，一直是英语一大作文考生备考的重点，具体而言，考查形式为双图题，虽然和2018，2019的不同，但考研的历史上，最早可以追溯到2003，近几年比如2016，2017出的也是双图题，因此就形式而言难度不大；2. 话题范围： 习惯，自律，时间管理，效率，防范拖延，行动等相关主题就话题范围而言，依然考的是历年真题考频最高的个人修养类，相关话题在历届考研真题中可以说屡见不鲜，如2008 “合作”；2012 “乐观”；2014“孝顺”，2017—“实践”等。同时，北京文都在考前押题班等多次课程中反复强调个人品质类为热点话题，需重点关注。话题内容并不生疏，难度偏易；3. 具体撰写：宏观角度---布局谋篇首段为图画描述段，可用两到三个长句子具体描述图画内容，注意双图题必须两幅图都要描述到位，不能有遗漏，但可以在具体写作时就其中某一幅图有所侧重；主体段为围绕主题的具体论述，可从意义分析或原因分析等多维角度进行论述；尾段为总结段，正面话题可从：总结上文、回应主题、提出希望三个方面作结。微观角度---遣词造句1）词汇、句法：考研英语作为英语阶段的高级测试，对词和句的要求要远远高于四六级等等级测试。从词汇角度来说，要注意少用或不用被历届学生用俗套的词，而多用一些熟词的生僻含义或“高大上”的词汇，于细微处彰显写作功底；从句法角度来说，句子结构的丰富多样性直接与得分正相关，因而要多运用句式解构复杂的句子，比如复合句（名词性从句、定语从句、状语从句）、特殊句型（倒装句、强调句、there be句型）、独立主格、非谓语动词等，以体现自己在句意表达上的优势所在。2）避免常见错误：具体用词上，注意基本语法错误，如名词单复数：动词的时态语态：被动语态的-ed形式，形近词混用等问题；构句上，英语与汉语不同，为形合语言，这就要求考生在写作时不仅要关注内容的契合，也要对前后句形式上的相合，也就是，如前后句语义关系密切，要有意识地使用关联词、分词等形式把二者紧密结合起来，以使行文鲜活生动，助力高分作文。
