(20%) Example: If it is true, as it seems to be, that life makes a wise man smile and a foolish man cry … Perhaps the most interesting person I have ever met is an interesting Italian professor of philosophy who teaches courses at University of Pisa in Italy. Although I last met this man eight years ago, I have not forgotten over the long years his special qualities. First of all, I was impressed from the beginning by his complete devotion to teaching his students. Because his lectures were always well-prepared and invariably clearly delivered, a great many students always swarmed into his classroom, filling the classroom to capacity. His many followers also appreciated the fact that he thoroughly believed in what he taught to students and that he was always intellectually stimulating to hear. Further more, he could be counted on in every class session to explain his ideas in an imaginative way, introducing such various aids to student understanding as oiling painting,phonograph records, pieces of sculpture, and guest lectures who were invited to speak to the class. Once he even sang a song in class before the students’ eyes in order to illustrate a philosophical points. Second, I admired the fact that he would confer with students at almost any time outside of the classroom or talk with them on the telephone. Drinking coffee in the snack bar after having taught a class, he would easily make friends with students with great ease. Sometimes he would issue a challenge to a student to join with him in a game of chess. At other times, he would quite readily join groups of students to discuss subjects ranging broadly from astronomy to scuba diving. Many young people visited him at one time or another in his office for academic advice; others came to his home for the purpose of social evenings. Finally, I was favorably impressed and attracted by his lively wit. He believed that no class hour is a success unless, during it, the students and the professor have a reason to join together to share several chuckles and at least one loud laugh. Through his inimitable and captivating sense of humor, he made learning much more enjoyable and much more lasting. Part III Fill in the blanks with appropriate words.

Part V Translation (30%) Section A Translation the following passage from English into Chinese. (15%) Both Crosby and Presley were creations of the microphone. It made it possible for people with frail voices not only to be heard beyond the third row but also to caress millions. Crosby was among the first to understand that the microphone made it possible to sing to multitudes by singing to a single person in a small room. Presley cuddled his microphone like a lover. With Crosby the microphone was usually concealed, but Presley brought it out on stage, detached it from its fitting, stroked it, pressed it to his mouth. It was a surrogate for his listener, and he made love to it unashamedly. The difference between Presley and Crosby, however, reflected generational differences which spoke of changing values in American life. Crosby’s music was soothing; Presley’s was disturbing. It is too easy to be glib about this, to say that Crosby was singing to, first, Depression America and, then, to wartime America, and that his audiences had all the disturbance they could handle in their daily lives without buying more at the record shop and movie theater. Section B Translate the following passage into English. (15%) 随着女儿越来越大，我发现她喜欢爸爸明显多于我。有好吃的，总要给爸爸留一 份，我有没有吃她倒很少关心。每次出去玩照合影女儿都是与爸爸脸贴着脸，紧 紧抱住爸爸，把我晾在一边。 以前如果有人问女儿:“爸爸好还是妈妈好,”女 儿的回答一律是爸爸好。后来经过老公的调教，现在的回答是爸爸妈妈都好。去 年九月份我们搬到新房，买了两棵室内植物，我们管它叫小树。我老公认为室内 植物的光合作用对改善空气成份有很大作用，又买了一棵，我嫌多余，而且装树 的瓷瓶看起来很土。第二天老公上班后，女儿告诉我:“妈妈，这树多漂亮啊～” 小家伙居然会替爸爸说话。新房装修时因为老公没时间，就把我父母接过来，一 段时间过后，母亲笑对我说:“闺女，你以后的日子也不好过啊～”原来老人家是 担心以后我闺女会帮着爸爸“欺负”她闺女。 Part VI Writing (30%) Those who take up careers on the stage are usually more popular and wealthier than either scientists or professors.
