  【题目做得想翻桌】

  P1

  1

  Hydrogeology is a science dealing with the properties, distribution, and circulation of water on the surface of the land, in the soil and underlying rocks, and in the atmosphere.

  水文学 HG 是一门研究地表上,土层中,岩层下和大气中的水体的特性,分布及循环的科学。

  2

  The term "geohydrology" is sometimes erroneously used as a synonym for "hydrogeology".

  “地质水文学” GH 这个术语有时被错误地当作 “水文学” HG 的同义词。

  3

  Geohydrology is concerned with underground water.

  地质水文学 GH 关注的是地下水。

  4

  There are many formations that contain water but are not part of the hydrologic cycle because of geologic changes that have isolated them underground.

  很多情况下,地质变迁把一些水体隔绝地下,不参与水循环。

  5

  These systems are properly termed geohydrologic but not hydrogeologic.

  这些水系就是地质水文学 GH 的研究对象,而与水文学 HG 无关。

  6

  Only when a system possesses natural or artificial boundaries that associate the water within it with the hydrologic cycle may the entire system properly be termed hydrogeologic. (107 words)

  只有当一个水系统的边界允许它内部的水参与水循环时,整个系统才应该被称为水文学 HG 的。

  (

  算个长句,也许需要我们支付一点耐心。

  only when 引导了一个从句作为状语,“只有……的时候”,直到 cycle 是从句结束;后面的主句因为 only when 的前置发生了倒装,助动词 may 被提前,正常的语序是 The entire system may properly be termed Hgic only when bla bla bla…

  )

  1. It can be inferred that which of the following is most likely to be the subject of study by a geohydrologist?

  (A) Soft, porous rock being worn away by a waterfall

  (B) Water depositing minerals on the banks of a gorge through which the water runs

  (C) The trapping of water in a sealed underground rock cavern through the action of an earthquake

  (D) Water becoming unfit to drink through the release of pollutants into it from a manufacturing plant

  (E) The changing course of a river channel as the action of the water wears away the rocks past which the river flows

  选C

  根据文中的信息推断,一个地质水文学家最可能是研究啥的。

  句 3,4,5 明确地告诉我们 geohydrology 是研究不参与整个水循环的,某种封闭的地质结构内部的水的,根据这样的条件,选 C ,“因地震封闭在地下洞穴中的水”。

  2. The author refers to "many formations" primarily in order to

  (A) clarify a distinction

  (B) introduce a subject

  (C) draw an analogy

  (D) emphasize a similarity

  (E) resolve a conflict

  选A

  formation 形式,结构,虽然没有具体的修饰成分,但我们可以推断,应该是指一些地质结构,这些地质结构封闭了一些水使其不能进入地球的水循环圈。

  作者提到 many formations 是为了界定 hydrogeology 与 geohydrology 的研究对象的区别,所以选 A 。

  1

  In the 1750‘s, when salons were firmly established in France, some English women, who called themselves "Bluestocking", followed the example of the salonnieres (French salon hostesses) and formed their own salons.

  1750年代,法国的沙龙制度已经稳固建立,一些自称 “蓝袜” 的英国女性,借鉴法国沙龙女主人的形式组织了自己的沙龙。

  (

  蓝袜 [Bluestocking]

  欧洲史

  18世纪中期,英国的一些妇女时常邀请文人和爱好文学的贵族参与的“闲谈会”,这些妇女被称为“蓝袜”。这个名称大概源自一位贵妇E.维齐夫人,她邀请学问渊博的B.斯蒂林弗里特参加她的一个晚会;斯蒂林弗里特说他没有合适的礼服而谢绝其邀请,于是她告诉斯蒂林弗里特可以穿“他的蓝袜”(即他平时穿的普通毛绒袜)来赴约。“蓝袜”一词现已用来嘲讽那些附庸风雅的妇女。

  (大英袖珍百科)

  )

  2

  Most Bluestockings did not wish to mirror the salonnieres; they simply desired to adapt a proven formula to their own purpose — the elevation of women‘s status through moral and intellectual training.

  多数蓝袜不想复制法式沙龙女主人,她们只想改换一种能够满足自己目的的新方式 —— 通过道德与知识的训练来提升女性地位。

  3

  Differences in social orientation and background can account perhaps for differences in the nature of French and English salons.

  社交倾向与背景的差异也许可以解释英法沙龙文化的本质不同。

  4

  The French salon incorporated aristocratic attitudes that exalted courtly pleasure and emphasized artistic accomplishments.

  法国沙龙蕴含了崇尚高雅娱乐和强调艺术成就的贵族趣味。

  5

  The English Bluestockings, originating from a more modest background, emphasized learning and work over pleasure.

  英国蓝袜们则来自于更质朴的社会阶层,相较于娱乐,她们更强调学习和工作。

  (

  over 此处做介词 “超过” 讲。

  )

  6

  Accustomed to the regimented life of court circles, salonnieres tended toward formality in their salons.

  习惯于宫廷社交圈的种种繁文缛节,法式沙龙主人重视沙龙的仪式感。

  7

  The English women, though somewhat puritanical, were more casual in their approach. (139 words)

  英国女性尽管颇为清教徒化,(组织沙龙的)手法却更为随意。

  3. According to the passage, a significant distinction between the salonnieres and Bluestockings was in the way each group regarded which of the following?

  (A) The value of acquiring knowledge

  (B) The role of pleasure in the activities of the literary salon

  (C) The desirability of a complete break with societal traditions

  (D) The inclusion of women of different backgrounds in the salons

  (E) The attainment of full social and political equality with men
