答案与题解:
1.B 本题给出的信息是错误的。最后一段说到,如果新建的芯片中心能在改善该国在芯片行业的被动形势中起重要作用,该国认为:“... the US $14 million investment is still rather *** all”。
2.C 文章没有提供这方面的信息。
3.B 文章提到专利费较高,此句说较低,与原意不符。
4.A 本题给出的信息是正确的。第二段有这样一句话:Currently, chip plants in this country are in a passive situation because many foreign governments don’t allow them to import the most advanced technologies, fearing they will be used for military purposes.这就是选A的依据。
5.C 文章没有提供这方面的信息。
6.A 选A的依据是第三段之一句:... mainstream chip production technology shifts from one generation to the next every three to five years ...
7.B 本题给出的信息是错误的。第四段第二句说明,这些芯片工厂的技术主要是从日本和新加坡进口的。
译文:微芯片研究中心成立
为了开发先进的微芯片生产技术,这个远东国家建立了一个研究中心,该中心启动资金为一千四百万美元,可以帮助该国开发自己的芯片工业,不必总是依赖于进口技术。
该中心将会应用自己的研究技术和设施,为本国芯片厂家开发新技术。这个国家名列首位的芯片制造公司说,芯片中心的成立可能使这个国家摆脱从他国购买即将淘汰的.技术的困境。由于许多外国 *** 担心先进技术会被用于军事目的,不允许这个国家的芯片生产厂家进口前沿技术,所以这些生产厂家处于一种被动局面。另外,由于这些芯片生产厂家必须向技术提供者支付高额的许可费,这也构成了他们决定要自力更生的一个重要原因。
由于主流芯片生产技术每隔 3~5年就要进行更新换代,所以掌握了新技术的厂家就可以以较低的成本制造出较好的芯片,而那些耗费数十亿美元建立起的厂家,如果设备落后,也将会被生产商所淘汰。
几个芯片厂正在建立之中,每个厂的造价都在几百万美元,其中大部分资金都流向了海外设备商和技术所有者——主要是日本和新加坡。
如果新建的芯片中心能在改变该国芯片行业的被动形势中起到重要作用,该国承认,一千四百万美元的投资仍是微不足道的。该国正在开发综合技术,大部分投资将用于与技术和知识产权所有者建立联盟。

The Biology of Music
Humans use music as a powerful way to communicate. It may also play an important role in love. But what is music, and how does it work its magic? Science does not yet have all the answers.
What are two things that make humans different from animals? One is language, and the other is music. It is true that some animals can sing (and many birds sing better than a lot of people). However, the songs of animals, such as birds and whales, are very limited. It is also true that humans, not animals, have developed musical instruments. 1
Music is strange stuff. It is clearly different from language. However, people can use music to communicate things — especially their emotions. When music is combined with speech in a song, it is a very powerful form of communication. But, biologically speaking, what is music?
If music is truly different from speech, then we should process music and language in different parts of the brain. The scientific evidence suggests that this is true.
Sometimes people who suffer brain damage lose their ability to process language. However, they don’t automatically lose their musical abilities. For example, Vissarion Shebalin, a Russian composer,had a stroke in 1953. It injured the left side of his brain. He could no longer speak or understand speech. He could, however, still compose music until his death ten years later. On the other hand,sometimes strokes cause people to lose their musical ability, but they can still speak and understand speech. This shows that the brain processes music and language separately.
By studying the physical effects of music on the body,scientists have also learned a lot about how music influences the emotions. But why does music have such a strong effect on us? That is a harder question to answer. Geoffrey Miller, a researcher at University College, London, thinks that music and love have a strong connection. Music requires special talent, practice, and physical ability. That’s why it may be a way of showing your fitness to be someone’s mate. For example, singing in tune or playing a musical instrument requires fine muscular control. You also need a good memory to remember the notes. And playing or singing those notes correctly suggests that your hearing is in excellent condition. Finally, when a man sings to the woman he loves (or vice versa), it may be a way of showing off.
However, Miller’s theory still doesn’t explain why certain combinations of sounds influence our emotions so deeply. For scientists,this is clearly an area that needs further research.
词汇:
automatically .自动地
note 音符
stroke 中风
注释:
1.It is also true that humans, not animals, have developed musical instruments:人研制出了乐器,而动物则不能。Develop:研制,例如:Scientists are developing new drugs to treat cancer.科学家们正在研发新药用以治疗癌症。

答案与题解:
1.B 第二段的第三句:It is true that some animals can sing (and many birds sing better than a lot of people).可以看出有些动物会唱歌,而不只人类会唱歌。
2.A 第三段的第三句:However, people can use music to communicate things — especially their emotions.这句清楚表明,人们可以用音乐来表达情感。
3.B 第四段说明:科学证明人们用大脑的不同区域处理语言和音乐。在第五段,作者用Vissarion Shebalin的例子进一步说明人脑处理语言和音乐的位置不同,Shebalin中风以后不能讲话也听不懂别人的话,但他却能创作乐曲。
4.A 第六段的第四句:Geoffrey Miller, a researcher at University College,London,thinks that music and love have a strong connection.这句说明Miller对音乐和爱(情感)的关系进行了研究,他得出的结论是:音乐和爱有密切的关联。
5.C 文中没有提及创作乐曲是否困难。
6.B 第六段有一句:You also need a good memory to remember the notes.此句说明必须具备好的记忆力记音符才能唱得符合调子。
7.A 最后一段讲的是:科学家们需要做更多的研究才能解释为什么有些声音影响我们的情感会如此之深。也就是说,科学家不能全部解释音乐对人类的影响。
译文:音乐生物学
人们把音乐作为一种高效的交流方式,在爱情中它也可能会起到重要的作用。但是音乐是什么?它又是如何起到神奇的效果?科学界还没有给出答案。
哪两项事物使得人类不同于动物?一个是语言,另一个是音乐。当然一些动物会唱歌 (并且许多鸟唱得比很多人都好听) ,但是,动物的歌声是有限的,比如鸟类和鲸鱼。同样,是人类而不是动物开发出了乐器。
音乐是个奇怪的东西,它与语言有明显的不同。但是,人们能够用音乐去传达——尤其是情感。当音乐与歌曲中的语言结合在一起的时候,它就是一种强有力的表达方式。但是,从生物学来讲,音乐是什么?
如果音乐与语言真的不同,那么我们应该在大脑的不同区域内对音乐和语言进行加工处理,科学证据也证实了这一点。
有时,受过脑损伤的人会丧失他们处理语言的能力。但是,他们不会自动地丢失音乐才能。比如,维沙翁·舍巴林,一位苏联作曲家,在1953 年得了中风。他的大脑的左半边受到损害,他再也不能说话或是理解别人的话,但是他仍然能够谱曲,直到十年后他离开人世。另一方面,中风有时会使人们丧失音乐能力,但是他们仍然能够说话也能听懂别人的话。这就说明大脑是分别加了处理音乐和语言的。
通过研究音乐在人身体上的物理效应,科学家也了解到许多关于音乐是如何影响情感的。但是,为什么音乐对我们有如此强烈的影响?这是一个更难回答的问题。伦敦大学学院的研究员杰弗里·米勒认为音乐和爱有紧密的关,音乐需要特殊才能、练习和体能。这也许是一种方式让你展示你适合做某人的伴侣。比如,按调唱歌或者弹奏乐器需要有很好的肌肉控制力。你也需要有好的记忆力来记住音符。能正确地演奏或者唱出这些音符也证明你的听力也非常好。所以,当一个男人唱给他心爱的女人时(反之亦然) 音乐就可能成为一种展示的方式。
然而,米勒的理论仍然不能解释为什么声音的特定结合可以深深地影响我们的情感。对于科学家来说,这显然是一个需要深入研究的领域。

part C
Medical Education
In 18th century colonial America, those who wanted to become physicians either learned as personal students from established professionals or went abroad to study in the traditional schools of London, Paris and Edinburgh. Medicine was first taught formally by specialists at the University of Pennsylvania, beginning in 1765, and in 1767 at King's College (now Columbia University), the first institution in the colonies to give the degree of doctor of medicine.
Following the American Revolution, the Columbia medical faculty (formerly of King's College) was combined with the College of Physicians and Surgeons, chartered in 1809, which survives as a division of Columbia University.
In 1893 the Johns Hopkins Medical School required all applicants to have a college degree and was the first to afford its students the opportunity to further their training in an attached teaching hospital. The growth of medical schools attached with established institutions of learning went together with the development of proprietary (私营的 ) schools of medicine run for personal profit, most of which had 10W standards and poor facilities. In 1910 Abraham Flexner, the American education reformer, wrote Medical Education in the United States and Canada, exposing the poor conditions of most proprietary schools. Subsequently, the American Medical Association(AMA) and the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) laid down standards for course content, qualifications of teachers, laboratory facilities, connection with teaching hospitals,and licensing of medical practitioners (开业医师) that survive to this day.
By the late 1980s the U.S. and Canada had 1,424 medical colleges recognized by the Liaison(联络) Committee on Medical Education to offer the M. D. degree; during the 1987-1988 academic year, 47,262 men and 25,686 women entered these colleges and an estimated 11,752 men and 5,958 women were graduated. Graduates, after a year of internship ( 实习期 ) , receive licenses to practice if they pass an examination given either by a state board or by the National Board of Medical Examiners.
