2. （本题8分） Evidence suggests that an important stimulus behind the rise of early civilizations was the development of settled agriculture，which unleashed a series of changes in the organization of human communities that culminated in the rise of large ancient empires．
The exact time and place that crops were first cultivated successfully is uncertain．Many prehistorians believe that farming may have emerged in dependently in several different areas of the world when small communities，driven by increasing population and a decline in available food resources，began to plant seeds in the ground in an effort to guarantee their survival．The first farmers，who may have lived as long as 10，000 years ago，undoubtedly used simple techniques and still relied primarily on other forms of food production，such as hunting，foraging，or pastoralism．The real breakthrough took place when farmers began to cultivate crops along the floodplains of river systems．The advantage was that crops grown in such areas were not as dependent on rainfall and therefore produced a more reliable harvest．An additional benefit was that the sediment carried by the river waters deposited nutrients in the soil，thus enabling the farmer to cultivate a single plot of ground for many years without movingto a new location．Thus，the first truly sedentary （that is，nonmigratory） societies were born．As time went on，such communities gradually learned how to direct the flow of water to enhance the productive capacity of the land，while the introduction of the iron plow eventually led to the cultivation of heavy soils not previously susceptible to agriculture．
The spread of this river valley agriculture in various parts of Asia and Africa was the decisive factor in the rise of the first civilizations．The increase in food production in these regions led to a significant growth in population，while efforts to control the flow of water to maximize the irrigation of cultivated areas and to protect the local inhabitants from hostile forces outside the community provoked the first steps toward cooperative activities on a large scale．The need to oversee the entire process brought about the emergence of an elite that was eventually transformed into a government．
The first clear steps in the rise of the first civilizations took place in the fourth and third millennia B．C．in Mesopotamia，northern Africa，India，and China．How the first governments took shape in these areas is not certain，but anthropologists studying the evolution of human communities in various parts of the world have discovered that one common stage in the process is the emergence of what are called"big men"within a single village or a collection of villages．By means of their military prowess，dominant personalities，or political talents，these people gradually emerge as the leaders of that community．In time，the"big men"become formal symbols of authority and pass on that authority to others within their own family．As the communities continue to grow in size and material wealth，the"big men"assume hereditary status，and their allies and family members are transformed into a hereditary monarchy．
The appearance of these sedentary societies had a major impact on the social organizations，religious beliefs，and way of life of the peoples living within their boundaries．With the increase in population and the development of centralized authority came the emergence of the cities．While some of these urban centers were identified with a particular economic function，such as proximity to gold or iron deposits or a strategic location on a major trade route，others served primarily as administrative centers or the site of temples for the official cult or other ritual observances．Within these cities，new forms of livelihood appeared to satisfy the growing need for social services and consumer goods．Some people became artisans or merchants，while others became warriors，scholars，or priests．In some cases，the physical division within the first cities reflected the strict hierarchical character of the society as a whole，with a royal palace surrounded by an imposing wall and separate from the remainder of the urban population．In other instances，such as the Indus River Valley，the cities lacked a royal precinct and the ostentatious palaces that marked their contemporaries elsewhere．

（1）According to paragraph 2，which of the following statements is true of early farmers？
A．They used farming to supplement other food sources．
B．They were driven out of small communities．
C．They were victims of flooding．
D．They farmed several plots of land at once．
（2）According to paragraph 3，which of the following is NOT a reason why governments first arose among agricultural communities？
A．A significant increase in population．
B．The desire to control water resources for irrigation．
C．The need for protection from outside forces．
D．The demand for organized communication with other communities．
（3）What is the relationship between paragraphs 3 and 4 in the passage？
A．Paragraph 3 explains why a need for leadership arose in early civilizations，and paragraph 4 describes how that leadership developed．
B．Paragraph 3 suggests that agriculture was first practiced in Asia and Africa，and paragraph 4 discusses how it might have later spread to the rest of the world．
C．Paragraph 3 describes several methods of early government，and paragraph 4 gives an extended example of one of them．
D．Paragraph 3 discusses a cause of the spread of river valley agriculture in early civilizations，and paragraph 4 discusses an effect．
（4）Paragraph 5 suggests that which of the following was a consequence of the emergence of cities？
A．The decentralization of authority．
B．An increase in religious activity．
C．The emergence of service-and production-related jobs．
D．A decreased reliance on mineral resources．

3. （本题8分） It is pretty much a one-way street．While it may be common for university researchers to try their luck in the commercial world，there is very little traffic in the opposite direction．Pay has always been the biggest deterrent，as people with families often feel they cannot afford the drop in salary when moving to a university job．For some industrial scientists，however，the attractions of academia（学术界）outweigh any financial considerations．
Helen Lee took a 70% cut in salary when she moved from a senior post in Abbott Laboratories to a medical department at the University of Cambridge．Her main reason for returning to academia mid-career was to take advantage of the greater freedom to choose research questions．Some areas of inquiry have few prospects of a commercial return，and Lee's is one of them．
The impact of a salary cut is probably less severe for a scientist in the early stages of a career．Guy Grant，now a research associate at the Unilever Centre for Molecular Informatics at the University of Cambridge，spent two years working for a pharmaceutical（制药的）company before returning to university as a post-doctoral researcher．He took a 30% salary cut but felt it worthwhile for the greater intellectual opportunities．
Higher up the ladder，where a pay cut is usually more significant，the demand for scientists with a wealth of experience in industry is forcing universities to make the transition（转换）to academia more attractive，according to Lee．Industrial scientists tend to receive training that academics do not，such as how to build a multidisciplinary team，manage budgets and negotiate contracts．They are also well placed to bring something extra to the teaching side of an academic role that will help students get a job when they graduate，says Lee，perhaps experience in manufacturing practice or product development．"Only a small number of undergraduates will continue in an academic career．So someone leaving university who already has the skills needed to work in an industrial lab has far more potential in the job market than someone who has spent all their time on a narrow research project．"

（1）By"a one-way street"（Line 1，Para.1），the author means        ．
A．university researchers know little about the commercial world
B．there is little exchange between industry and academia
C．few industrial scientists would quit to work in a university
D．few university professors are willing to do industrial research
（2）The underline word"deterrent"most probably refers to something that
A．keeps someone from taking action
B．helps to move the traffic
C．attracts people's attention
D．brings someone a financial burden
（3）Guy Grant chose to work as a researcher at Cambridge in order to        ．
A．do financially more rewarding work
B．raise his status in the academic world
C．enrich his experience in medical research
D．exploit better intellectual opportunities
（4）What contribution can industrial scientists make when they come to teach in a university？
A．Increase its graduates' competitiveness in the job market．
B．Develop its students' potential in research．
C．Help it to obtain financial support from industry．
D．Gear its research towards practical applications．

4. （本题8分） It would be all too easy to say that Facebook's market meltdown is coming to an end．After all，Mark Zuckerberg's social network burned as much as＄50 billion of shareholders' wealth in just a couple months．To put that in context，since its debut（初次登台） on NASDAQ in May，Facebook has lost value nearly equal to Yahoo，AOL，Zynga，Yelp，Pandora，Open Table，Groupon，LinkedIn，and Angie's List combined，plus that of the bulk of the publicly traded newspaper industry：
Aocking as this utter failure may be to the nearly 1 billion faithful Facebook users around the world，it's no surprise to anyone who read the initial public offering （IPO）prospectus （首次公开募股说明书）．Worse still，all the crises that emerged when the company debuted-overpriced shares，poor corporate governance，huge challenges to the core business，and a damaged brand-remain today．Facebook looks like a prime example of what Wall Streetcalls a falling knife-that is，one that can cost investors their fingers if they try to catch it．
Start with the valuation（估值）．To justify a stock price close to the lower end of the projected range in the IPO，say＄28 a share，Facebook's future growth would have needed to match that of Google seven years earlier．That would have required increasing revenue by some80 percent annually and maintaining high profit margins all the while．
That's not happening．In the first half of 2012，Facebook reported revenue of＄2.24 billion，up38 percent from the same period in 2011．At the same time，the company's costs surged to＄2.6 billion in the six-month period．
This so-so performance reflects the Achilles' heel of Facebook's business model，which the company clearly stated in a list of risk factors associated with its IPO：it hasn't yet figured out how to advertise effectively on mobile devices，The number of Facebook users accessing the site on their phones surged by 67 percent to 543 million in the last quarter，or more than half its customer base．
Numbers are only part of the problem．The mounting pile of failure creates a negative feedback loop that threatens Facebook's future in other ways．Indeed，the more Facebook's disappointment in the market is catalogued，the worse Facebook's image becomes．Not only does that threaten to rub off on users，it's bad for recruitment and retention of talented hackers，who are the lifeblood of Zuckerberg's creation．
Yet the brilliant CEO can ignore the sadness and complaints of hiareholders thanks to the super-voting stock he holds．This arrangement also was fully disclosed at the time of the offering．It's a pity so few investors apparently bothered to do their homework．

（1）What can be inferred about Facebook from the first paragraph？
A．Its market meltdown has been easily halted．
B．It has increased trade with the newspaper industry．
C．It has encountered utter failure since its stock debut．
D．Itareholders have invested＄50 billion in a social network．
（2）To make its stock price reasonable，Facebook has to
A．narrow the IPO price range
B．cooperate with Google
C．keep enormously profitable
D．invest additional＄2.6 billion
（3）It can be inferred from the context that the"Achilles' heel"（Line 1，Para.5）refers to
A．deadly weakend
B．problem unsolved
C．indisputable fact
D．potential risk
（4）What effect will Facebook's failure in the market have？
A．Its users' benefits will be threatened．
B．Talented hackers will take down the website．
C．The CEO will hold the super-voting stock．
D．The company's innovation strength will be damaged．

二、短文填空(1小题共10分)

5. （本题10分） With the development of society，it is common that many people are rushing all the way and all day，tired and sub-healthy （亚健康）．（1）        She described all the thinge had to do-one was to make her bed-from the moment she woke up until she flew out of the door for work．I suggested she experiment by not making her bed for two weeks．She waocked，probably thinking I'd been brought up by wolves in a forest．（2）
Two weeks later she went into my office merrily．She had left her bed unmade for the first time in 42 years-and nothing bad had happened．"And you know what？"she said．"I don't dry my dishes anymore，either．"（3）        One was discovering that she had choices in her life that she had never seen before．The other was giving herself permission to be less than perfect．This story shows an important principle about managing time：No one can do it all．Each of us has to make choices and accept trade-offs（利弊权衡）．The problem is that many people choose in ways that put themselves and their health last．They take better care of their houses and cars than they do of themselves．（4）
So what is the solution？There's an easy way．Decide what you want in your life，and put that first．On a daily basis，that should include regular meals，enough sleep and time with your family．Exercise，leisure，friendships and hobbieould also be regular aspects of life．（5）       The choice is yours：whatever makes you feel good about yourself and your life．Take a nap．Take a walk．Take time to play the piano．Stop bringing your briefcase home from the office．Stop keeping your house as clean as your mother kept hers．Fill more of your time with want-to-dos instead of have-to-dos．

A．Most people do not take time to relax themselves．
B．The point is to do something for yourself every day．
C．A patient came to see me about the stress in her life．
D．This woman had made two major breakthroughs．
E．Above all，you needn't do anything for yourself regularly．
F．They put everyone else's needs ahead of their own．
G．However，she went along with my idea．
