Text 2 It used to be so straightforward.A team of researchers working together in the laboratory would submit the results of their research to a journal.A journal editor would then remove the authors’names and affiliations from the paper and send it to their peers for review.Depending on the comments received,the editor would accept the paper for publication or decline it.Copyright rested with the journal publisher,and researchers seeking knowledge of the results would have to subscribe to the journal.No longer.The Internet–and pressure from funding agencies,who are questioning why commercial publishers are making money from government-funded research by restricting access to it–is making access to scientific results a reality.The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development(OECD)has just issued a report describing the far-reaching consequences of this.The report,by John Houghton of Victoria University in Australia and Graham Vickery of the OECD,makes heavy reading for publishers who have,so far,made handsome profits.But it goes further than that.It signals a change in what has,until now,been a key element of scientific endeavor.The value of knowledge and the return on the public investment in research depends,in part,upon wide distribution and ready access.It is big business.In America,the core scientific publishing market is estimated at between$7 billion and$11 billion.The International Association of Scientific,Technical and Medical Publishers says that there are more than 2,000 publishers worldwide specializing in these subjects.They publish more than 1.2 million articles each year in some 16,000 journals.This is now changing.According to the OECD report,some 75%of scholarly journals are now online.Entirely new business models are emerging;three main ones were identified by the report’s authors.There is the so-called big deal,where institutional subscribers pay for access to a collection of online journal titles through site-licensing agreements.There is open-access publishing,typically supported by asking the author(or his employer)to pay for the paper to be published.Finally,there are open-access archives,where organizations such as universities or international laboratories support institutional repositories.Other models exist that are hybrids of these three,such as delayed open-access,where journals allow only subscribers to read a paper for the first six months,before making it freely available to everyone who wishes to see it.All this could change the traditional form of the peer-review process,at least for the publication of papers.27.Which of the following is true of the OECD report?

正确答案:C

本题解析:

文章第二段首先谈到互联网使得获得科学成果变成现实,接着谈到了最近OECD发布的一个报告,该报告描写了互联网对出版行业的影响,使得盈利不菲的出版商们很头痛(make heavy reading for的意思是让某人读起来很费力)。文章在提到这些出版商时给其加了一个盈利不菲的定语,这说明使其头疼的事情正是与该定语对应,在这里就是会对他们盈利产生不利,故答案为C。

Text 1 While still catching up to men in some spheres of modern life,women appear to be way ahead in at least one undesirable category.“Women are particularly susceptible to developing depression and anxiety disorders in response to stress compared to men,”according to Dr.Yehuda,chief psychiatrist at New York’s Veteran’s Administration Hospital.Studies of both animals and humans have shown that sex hormones somehow affect the stress response,causing females under stress to produce more of the trigger chemicals than do males under the same conditions.In several of the studies,when stressed-out female rats had their ovaries(the female reproductive organs)removed,their chemical responses became equal to those of the males.Adding to a woman’s increased dose of stress chemicals,are her increased“opportunities”for stress.“It’s not necessarily that women don’t cope as well.It’s just that they have so much more to cope with,”says Dr.Yehuda.“Their capacity for tolerating stress may even be greater than men’s,”she observes,“it’s just that they’re dealing with so many more things that they become worn out from it more visibly and sooner.”Dr.Yehuda notes another difference between the sexes.“I think that the kinds of things that women are exposed to tend to be in more of a chronic or repeated nature.Men go to war and are exposed to combat stress.Men are exposed to more acts of random physical violence.The kinds of interpersonal violence that women are exposed to tend to be in domestic situations,by,unfortunately,parents or other family members,and they tend not to be one-shot deals.The wear-and-tear that comes from these longer relationships can be quite devastating.”Adeline Alvarez married at 18 and gave birth to a son,but was determined to finish college.“I struggled a lot to get the college degree.I was living in so much frustration that that was my escape,to go to school,and get ahead and do better.”Later,her marriage ended and she became a single mother.“It’s the hardest thing to take care of a teenager,have a job,pay the rent,pay the car payment,and pay the debt.I lived from paycheck to paycheck.”Not everyone experiences the kinds of severe chronic stresses Alvarez describes.But most women today are coping with a lot of obligations,with few breaks,and feeling the strain.Alvarez’s experience demonstrates the importance of finding ways to diffuse stress before it threatens your health and your ability to function.25.Which of the following would be the best title for the text?

从整个文章结构来看,文章主要围绕女性面临的压力问题,其中间或提到男性的压力也只是为了反衬女性压力,故D为正确答案。A选项概括范围过大,脱离了文章以女性为中心的讨论。B选项和C选项都只涉及到文章的一个方面,并非文章全貌。三、文章难句分析

本题解析:

首先根据题干内容找到文章中对应的内容,文章第三段第二句在提到关于Dr.Ychuda的研究中指出“这未必是因为女性不能调节压力,而只是因为她们承受的压力太多”。耶胡达医生还说,“女性忍受压力的能力甚至可能比男性更强,但只是由于她们应对的事情太多以至于疲劳得更快更明显。”从这写内容我们容易判断出答案为D。A项表意错误,第二段指出女性面对压力时产生的化学物质比男性多,这种化学物质使女性更易焦虑,而不是说女性需要更多的化学物质来缓解焦虑,故排除A项;第三段第三句提到女性容忍压力的能力或许比男性更好,排除B项

文章在第四段中指出,妇女所遇到的压力趋于慢性的和有反复的本性,并非如男性所面临的压力大多是战争和具有偶然性的动态情况中。慢性的另一种理解为持久的,反复则对应于频繁,C项正与此对应。A项和D项都与该段不一致。B选项与第三句对应,是男性压力的性质,也不符合题意。

文章第一段主要介绍了一个具体的传统论文出版的流程,通常作为第一段的案例是作为铺垫以引出文章的主题,也是为了说明文章的中心,从后文我们可以看出文章谈到的是一个现代的出版模式,那么相对应,这里应该是谈到的传统的出版模式。由此可知D项为正确答案。A项错在editing一词上,第一段中并未涉及编辑期刊这一概念,而是在介绍传统的期刊出版,属于偷换概念故排除;B选项的“publication routine”,论述范围太窄,不能完全表达全文意思;同时,此段确实出现作者author与出版商publisher的关键词,

第五段是一个具体实例,从语境来看,该段通过描述阿尔瓦雷兹承受各种家庭责任来说明女性承受着长期而严重的压力。从文中可以看出,作为一个单身母亲,阿尔瓦雷兹面临很大的生存压力,要付房租等日常开支,这与B项中所指的她的薪水几乎不能满足日常生活开销相吻合,故正确选项为B。A项侧重人物主观倾向,和文中承受生活压力这种客观无奈脱离,故排除。C项只是文章事实内容的介绍,并没有与主题联系,故排除;D项完全曲解了“paycheck”的意义,望文生义将paycheck拆成pay和check而编造的选项,所以排除。
