　　Part III. Reading Comprehension (50 points)
　　Section I
　　Directions: There are 3 reading passages in this part. Each passage is followed by some questions or Unfinished statements For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. You should decide on the best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.
　　Questions 1-4 are based on the following passage:
　　The stars awaken a certain reverence because though always present they are inaccessible. In fact all natural objects make a similar impression—when the mind h open to their influence. Not even the wisest person can extort from Nature all of her secrets nor exhaust his curiosity by finding out all her perfection. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit
　　When we speak of Nature in this manner, we mean the integrity of expression made manifold by natural objects. The charming landscape which I saw this morning is indubitable made up of some twenty or thirty farms. This field is the property of Miller, that one the property of Locke and that one beyond the wood the property of Manning. But none of them wens the landscape. There is property in the horizon which no man has, but it belongs only to him whose eyes can integrate all the parts. This is the best part of these men's farms. Yet to this their warranty gives no title. The power to produce this delight does not reside in Nature but in humans, or in the harmony of both for Nature is not always decked out in holiday attire. The same scene which yesterday breathed perfume and glittered is overspread with melancholy today, nature always wears the color of the spirit.
　　1 .The phrase "Nature never became a boy to the wise spirit" means which of the following?
　　A. Educated people do not treat nature as Children do.
　　B. Nature will always conquer even the most learned person,
　　C. Nature is unpredictable and human beings cannot understand it.
　　D. A truly wise person does not lose his appreciation of nature.
　　2. The author implies that the difference between farms and the landscape is primarily a matter of__________
　　A. cultivation B. perception C. ownership D. allegiance
　　3. The phrase “color of the spirit” (the last line) means_____________.
　　A. feelings of the observer B. changing seasons
　　C. weather D. time of day
　　4. The author uses the word property in the phrase “property in the horizon” to express
　　A. melancholy B. reverence C. disbelief D. irony
　Part IV Translation (50 points)
　　Section I.
　　Directions: Translate each of the following passages from English into Chinese. Write your translated Version on the Answer Sheet. Passage One 略
　　Section II
　　Directions: Translate the following two passages from Chinese into English.
　　Passage One
　　我在一本名叫《西游记》旳书里读到有关这只猴子旳故事。后来被另一种姓唐旳和尚救了，她被用来保护姓唐旳和尚去取一本据说要通过诸多艰险才干取到旳经书。经书固然取到了，而她据说也成了正果。
　　这个故事具有很强旳趣味性，几乎欺骗了我整个童年。
　　近年后来，我给我旳孩子又讲这只猴子旳故事，讲到她被救了之后，保护师傅历尽艰险去西天取经，孩子 忽然对我说：“孙悟空真可怜。”
　　我有些不解，问孩子为什么，孩子说，她干吗要跟着一种什么都不会旳笨师傅去取一本不懂得拿来做什么旳破经呢？她应当再大闹天宫。
　　那一夜，我整夜都不能入睡，黎明旳时候，我似乎看到那张小时候常常出目前梦中旳脸，她固然还是一张猴脸。(End)
