南方大學 北方大學

招生人數 20人 10人
優惠政策 無 加20分
上海以前從未考過的作文題型,將數據分析型作文和A or B型論述文相結合,很好地考察了學生的綜合應用能力。
由於學生在考試前剛剛經歷過填報志願,具有「新鮮感」,根據自身的情況,完全都是有內容可寫的。並且沒有所謂的「孰是孰非」,只要言之有理即可。
個人認為題目出得非常好,跳出了作文題海。
One possible version:
The South University and The North University are both my best choices. Compared with the tuition fees of the South University, which is 8,000 yuan per year, I can save 3,000 yuan every year if I choose the North University. However, 20 high schools students in our country may have the chance to go to the South University, while the North University will only admit ten out of us. Finally I can get 20 scores added to my final results if I』d like to study in the North University.
Since I』m from a not-well-off family and I』m eager to be enrolled by a university, the North University should be my best choice.

(B)
Nervous suspects(嫌疑犯) locked up in Britain's newest police station may feel relieved by a pleasant yellow Colour on the door. If they are close to confessing a crime, the blue on the wall might tip the balance.
Gwent Police have abandoned colours such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell(牢房) and have used colour psychology to decorate them.
Ystrad Mynach station, which recently opened at a cost of£5 million, has four cells with glass doors for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia(幽閉恐怖症). Designers have painted the frames yellow, which researchers say is a calming colour. Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists believe that the colour is likely to encourage truthfulness.
The station has 31 cells, including 12 with a 「live scan」 system for drunken or disturbed prisoners, which detects the rise and fall of their chest. An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner's breathing stops and carries on ringing until the door is opened.
Designers and psychologists have worked for years on colour. Blue is said to suggest trust, efficiency, ty, logic, coolness, thinking and calm. It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness. It is thought that strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft colours will calm the mind and aid concentration.
Yellow is linked with confidence, self-respect and friendliness. Get the colour wrong and it could cause fear, depression and anxiety, but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect.
Ingrid Collins, a psychologist who specializes in the effects of colour, said that colour was an 「energy force」. She said: 「Blue does enhance communication but I am not sure it would enhance truthful communication.」
Yellow, she said, affected the mind. Red, on the other hand, should never be considered because it could increase aggression. Mrs Collins praised the designers for using colours in the cells. Gwent is not the first British force to experiment with colour to calm down or persuade prisoners to co-operate. In the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy.
69. The expression 「tip the balance」 in paragraph 1 probably indicates that the blue might ____.
A. let suspects keep their balance B. help suspects to confess their crimes
C. make suspects cold and unfriendly in law court D. enable suspects to change their attitudes to colours
70. Which of the following colours should NOT be used in cells according to me passage?
A. Pink. B. Yellow C. Blue. D. Red.
71. Which of the following helps alert officers if someone stops breathing?
A. Scanning equipment. B. Royal blue lines. C. Glass doors. D.Yellow frames.
72. The passage is mainly concerned with ______
A. the relationship between colours and psychology B. a comparison of different functions of colours
C. the use of colours in cells to affect criminals』 psychology
D. scientific ways to help criminals reform themselves in prison
73. The word 「talion」 in introcing the book Eye for an Eye is probably a concept of ______.
A. medicine B. trade C. avenging D. striving
74. The book entitled A History of Modern Indonesia has focus on _______.
A. 1andscapes and tourist attractions in Indonesia B. its fourth largest population in the world
C. its relatively unfamiliar and understudied economy D. its social and political aspects in modern times
75. What do these books have in common?
A. Their authors are introced in detail. B. They all have a hard back and a paperback.
C. Each of them is commented by a professor. D. They are published by the same publishing house.
(D)
The 「Bystander Apathy Effect」 was first studied by researchers in New York after neighbours ignored—and in some cases turned up the volume on their TVs—the cries of a woman as she was murdered(over a half-hour period). With regard to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that:
(1) women are helped more than men;
(2) men help more than women;
(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women.
Other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through their own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help.
According to Adrian Furnham, Professor 0f University College, London, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:
(1) 「Shifting of responsibility」一the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given. Each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more 「other people』 there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.
(2) 「'Fear of making a mistake'』一situations are often not clear. People think that those involved in an accident may know each other or it may be a joke, so a fear of embarrassment makes them keep themselves to themselves.
(3) 「Fear of the consequences if attention is turned on you, and the person is violent.」
Laurie Taylor, Professor of Sociology at London University, says: 「In the experiments I』ve seen on intervention(介入), much depends on the neighb

色彩對人類生活的意義是不言而喻的。如果說自然環境的美麗多彩是大自然賦予人類的珍貴財富,那麼城市則凝聚了人類自遠古以來幾千年的文明成果。城市面貌是地區特徵、民族特性和文化傳統的直觀反映,城市色彩無疑是其中最重要的信息之一。
近年來,色彩作為城市景觀中的重要因素,逐漸引起關注。在世界范圍內越來越多的研究工作圍繞這樣的主題展開:一個城市是否可能或應該具有特定的色彩基調?什麼樣的城市色彩基調能夠與其所在的自然環境和諧共處,並反映出城市特有的地方、民族和文化特質?如何從色彩這一設計角度使城市具有統一和諧、美麗宜人的景觀,從而給生活於此的人們創造出良好的生存環境?從根本上說,城市色彩的研究對象不是某個個體,而是人們生活於其中的整體城市環境。
「城市色彩」在國內是一個新課題、新領域。以前實用色彩的研究和運用很少涉及城市這一對象,色彩這一論題沒有被提升到城市的范圍來進行探索。究其原因,一方面或許是由於城市問題所涉及的因素眾多,另一方面或許是由於色彩的實際運用是一個缺乏明確標準的問題,諸如「選擇什麼顏色」或者「喜歡什麼顏色」這類問題有著極強的主觀性,因此,建立良好的城市色彩景觀似乎成了一個難以企及的理想。應該說,正是這種將色彩視為個人喜好的觀念,以及城市景觀品質意識的匱乏,使城市環境中的色彩問題沒有得到足夠重視,這對一個良好的城市景觀的形成、保護和發展極為不利。針對城市色彩景觀的研究,正是試圖以色彩為切入點,從宏觀的角度對城市這一復雜的對象展開研究,最終為建立良好的城市色彩景觀提供科學的理論依據和切實可行的操作方法。
大中型城市,一般情況下都會形成具有功能特徵的區域,以此為據可以建立城市色彩景觀規劃設計的一種模式,即以建築區域在城市中的不同功能角色和性質為出發點,對其進行以區域為單位的建築及其他重要視覺元素的色彩景觀控制。中心商務區往往因集中了城市的高標准建築而具有城市標志的作用。像上海浦東的陸家嘴金融商貿區,多以高層、超高層的寫字樓、酒店或大型綜合性建築群為主,在控制策略上,應以色彩的調和為主。
商業區常常以商業街或商業廣場等形式出現,其色彩一般是城市中最為活躍的部分。應該注意的是,針對不同性質的商業區所應採取的控制策略是不同的。傳統商業街所要傳達的文化含量並不亞於其商業性,因此,色彩的處理應慎重,廣告招貼和商品陳列應遵從傳統方式,避免因色彩面積過大而破壞景觀。而一般商業區以商業活動為主要目的,色彩多變、強烈沖擊的視覺效果有時也不失為一種特色。但國內很多城市的商業區經常存在廣告過多、過於雜亂的通病,相對而言,歐洲城市的商業區則要「安靜」得多。
傳統地方文化保護區是城市地方歷史和傳統文化最為集中的體現,是保護地方人文環境和發揚其特色的重點所在,因此需要格外仔細地分析研究和慎重操作。對於確實具有一定歷史文化價值的文物性建築,外立面應以保護性清洗為主,盡量保留其原有的材質和色彩,絕不應盲目翻修粉飾,整舊一新。
城市色彩景觀設計的實施可以使城市成為舒適美觀的人居環境,但如何正確實施則有賴於對城市色彩的研究和設計。只有盡快將這個研究課題納入到城市規劃和城市設計的總體框架中去,並在研究基礎上制定具體的條例,才能使城市規劃部門在實際操作中能夠對此進行有力的指導和管理。

①世紀之星隕落了,隕落在世紀終結的前夜。她的使命已經完成,她整整燃燒了一百年!她以不竭的熱情在自己擁有的一角天空,默默地放射自己的光和熱,溫暖著、滋潤著人們的心靈,教他們如何愛、如何為弱小者和善良者獻出心力,既不高調,亦不卑微,一百年不間斷,以一以貫之的從容和平淡,燃燒自己,燭照世間。這樣的人,在這一百年中,即使不是僅見,恐怕也是極為罕見的。
②冰心是世紀的同齡人,也是世紀的見證人。清王朝覆滅時,她是少年;五四新文化運動時,她是青年;整個中年時期在離亂和憂患中度過。動盪和苦難,造就了她成熟的人生。飽經憂患的她,極大地延長了中年期。她似乎在向世人昭示,人的生命有多麼大的承受力,她堅強地活著,體驗那超乎想像的苦難並戰勝它,從充滿噩夢的昨日,直至舒展開放的今日。
③在冰心的文學世界裡,大海和母親是支持這個世界全部豐富性的兩個基本意象。母親的意象,是包容在大海這個大的意象之中的。冰心曾在詩中向造物者祈求,倘若生命中只有一次「極樂的片刻」,那麼,她的願望便是:「我在母親的懷里,母親在小舟里,小舟在月明的大海里。」 (《春水》)
④在冰心的詩中,我、母親、大海是三位一體的。人類各式各樣的愛中,母愛最純真、也最偉大。母親對兒女之愛無須特意表現,是發自內心、自然而然的。子女對於母親之愛的懷想與禮贊也如此。這是排斥了一切勢利考慮之後的無私、無邪、無欲的高貴情感。冰心從母愛出發,推己及人,以一片婉轉女兒心,傳達出人間的萬種柔情。
⑤大海博大涵容,它的寬廣胸襟可以裝下世間一切的苦厄、歡愉和憂思。它靜如明鏡,動有狂瀾。在它碧波萬頃的寧靜中,包蘊著震天撼地的偉力。它的激情也是內蘊的,卻夜以繼日地起伏涌動,若人的生命之樹常青!誠然,這位昔日的南國閨秀,有著一顆晶瑩柔婉的女兒心,對母親、對兄弟、對友人、對弱者;而大海的博大、雄健、恆久,卻從另一面襯託了這位世紀老人的高遠和偉大。
⑥在文學經歷上,冰心是五四新文學的同齡人。她說過,是五四運動那「強烈的時代思潮把我卷出了狹小的家庭和教會學校的門檻,使我由模糊而慢慢地看出了在我周圍的半封建半殖民地的中國社會中的種種問題。這裡面有血有淚,有凌辱和呻吟,壓迫和呼喚」。冰心稱這股新文化運動的思潮是「電光後的一聲驚雷」,把她「震」上了寫作的道路。她的創作活動始於1919年,一直延伸到世紀末。五四運動中涌現了一批狂飆突進的猛將,如陳獨秀、胡適、魯迅等,他們是登高一呼從者如雲的英雄式的人物。冰心不是這類英雄式的人物,她更「平常」,但她響應和參與了這種英雄業績的創造和建設。她和「五四」一代人有著共同的性格,那就是反抗和批判。他們同樣是新時代和新潮流的推動者,共同完成了中國20世紀偉大的精神革命。偉大的五四精神突出地表現在對於舊文化和舊禮教的抗爭,但「五四」並非一味地「破壞」,它有鮮明的建設精神;「五四」也井非一味地「激烈」,它的本質是溫情和人性的」這些本質在那些猛將身上,是隱藏著和潛伏著的,而在另一類「非猛將」如冰心這樣的人身上,則成為一種非常明顯確定的品質。
⑦這是最豐富和最有創造力的一代人。在這個讓人景仰的隊伍中,走著我們的冰心先生。她是最先覺悟的那些女性中的一位。中西、古今文化的交匯和融合,在她那裡造出了奇跡。她的創作服膺於「為人生」的理想;她發起和倡導了中國新詩史上的「小詩運動」;她用通訊的方式寫散文,她的《寄小讀者》開辟了散文的新天地;她還是兒童文學熱情的支持者和實踐者。
⑧冰心畢生都在這樣辛勤地創造著,直到生命的晚景,都沒有放下手中的筆,而且愈到後來,性格中潛藏的剛烈之氣愈為顯揚。她正氣凜然,疾惡如仇,所作短文如《萬般皆上品》、《無士則如何》等,竟有匕首般的犀利!
⑨斗轉星移,歲月不居,冰心走完她的百年人生長途,離我們遠去了。但她在我們的心目中始終是一顆不倦地燃燒著的星。這顆星已燃燒了一百年!她留給我們的精神財富,值得整個民族永遠珍惜。

Nervous suspects(嫌疑犯) locked up in Britain's newest police station may feel relieved by a pleasant yellow Colour on the door. If they are close to confessing a crime, the blue on the wall might tip the balance.
Gwent Police have abandoned colours such as greys and browns of the 20th-century police cell(牢房) and have used colour psychology to decorate them.
Ystrad Mynach station, which recently opened at a cost of£5 million, has four cells with glass doors for prisoners who suffer from claustrophobia(幽閉恐怖症). Designers have painted the frames yellow, which researchers say is a calming colour. Other cells contain a royal blue line because psychologists believe that the colour is likely to encourage truthfulness.
The station has 31 cells, including 12 with a 「live scan」 system for drunken or disturbed prisoners, which detects the rise and fall of their chest. An alarm alerts officers if a prisoner's breathing stops and carries on ringing until the door is opened.
Designers and psychologists have worked for years on colour. Blue is said to suggest trust, efficiency, ty, logic, coolness, thinking and calm. It also suggests coldness and unfriendliness. It is thought that strong blues will stimulate clear thought and lighter, soft colours will calm the mind and aid concentration.
Yellow is linked with confidence, self-respect and friendliness. Get the colour wrong and it could cause fear, depression and anxiety, but the right yellow can lift spirits and self-respect.
Ingrid Collins, a psychologist who specializes in the effects of colour, said that colour was an 「energy force」. She said: 「Blue does enhance communication but I am not sure it would enhance truthful communication.」
Yellow, she said, affected the mind. Red, on the other hand, should never be considered because it could increase aggression. Mrs Collins praised the designers for using colours in the cells. Gwent is not the first British force to experiment with colour to calm down or persuade prisoners to co-operate. In the 1990s Strathclyde Police used pink in cells based on research carried out by the US Navy.
69. The expression 「tip the balance」 in paragraph 1 probably indicates that the blue might ____.
A. let suspects keep their balance B. help suspects to confess their crimes
C. make suspects cold and unfriendly in law court D. enable suspects to change their attitudes to colours

The 「Bystander Apathy Effect」 was first studied by researchers in New York after neighbours ignored—and in some cases turned up the volume on their TVs—the cries of a woman as she was murdered(over a half-hour period). With regard to helping those in difficulty generally, they found that:
(1) women are helped more than men;
(2) men help more than women;
(3) attractive women are helped more than unattractive women.
Other factors relate to the number of people in the area, whether the person is thought to be in trouble through their own fault, and whether a person sees himself as being able to help.
According to Adrian Furnham, Professor 0f University College, London, there are three reasons why we tend to stand by doing nothing:
(1) 「Shifting of responsibility」一the more people there are, the less likely help is to be given. Each person excuses himself by thinking someone else will help, so that the more 「other people』 there are, the greater the total shifting of responsibility.
(2) 「'Fear of making a mistake'』一situations are often not clear. People think that those involved in an accident may know each other or it may be a joke, so a fear of embarrassment makes them keep themselves to themselves.
(3) 「Fear of the consequences if attention is turned on you, and the person is violent.」
Laurie Taylor, Professor of Sociology at London University, says: 「In the experiments I』ve seen on intervention(介入), much depends on the nei
