　　B

　　I once had my Chinese MBA students brainstorming on “two-hour business plans”. I separated them into six groups and gave them an example: a restaurant chain. The more original their idea, the better, I said. Finally, five of the six groups presented plans for restaurant chains. The sixth proposed a catering service. Though I admitted the time limit had been difficult, I expressed my disappointment.

　　My students were middle managers, financial analysts and financiers from state owned enterprises and global companies. They were not without talent or opinions, but they had been shaped by an educational system that rarely stressed or rewarded critical thinking or inventiveness. The scene I just described came in different forms during my two years’ teaching at the school. Papers were often copied from the Web and the Harvard Business Review. Case study debates were written up and just memorized. Students frequently said that copying is a superior business strategy, better than inventing and creating.

　　In China, every product you can imagine has been made and sold. But so few well developed marketing and management minds have been raised that it will be a long time before most people in the world can name a Chinese brand.

　　With this problem in mind, partnerships with institutions like Yale and MIT have been established. And then there’s the “thousand talent scheme”: this new government program is intended to improve technological modernization by attracting top foreign trained scientists to the mainland with big money. But there are worries about China’s research environment. It’s hardly known for producing independent thinking and openness, and even big salary offers may not be attractive enough to overcome this.

　　At last, for China, becoming a major world creator is not just about setting up partnerships with top Western universities. Nor is it about gathering a group of well educated people and telling them to think creatively. It’s about establishing a rich learning environment for young minds. It’s not that simple.

　　61. Why does the author feel disappointed at his students?

　　A. Because there is one group presenting a catering service.

　　B. Because the six groups made projects for restaurant chains.

　　C. Because all the students copied a case for the difficult topic.

　　D. Because the students’ ideas were lacking in creativeness.

　　62. Which of the following scenes is NOT considered as lack of creation?

　　A. Papers were often downloaded from the Internet.

　　B. Students often said that copying is a preferable business strategy.

　　C. Students combine knowledge and critical thoughts to solve a problem.

　　D. Case study debates were written up as well as recited.

　　63. The underlined word “scheme” in the forth paragraph means ________.

　　A. timetable

　　B. theme

　　C. project

　　D. policy

　　64. We can infer from the passage that ________.

　　A. China can make and sell any product all over the world

　　B. high pay may not solve the problem of China’s research environment

　　C. cooperation with institutions has been set up to make a Chinese brand

　　D. the new government program are aimed at encouraging imagination

　　65. Which is the best title of the passage?

　　A. Look for a New Way of Learning.

　　B. Reward Creative Thinking.

　　C. How to Become a Creator.

　　D. Establish a technical Environment.

　　C

　　New technology links the world as never before. Our planet has shrunk. It’s now a “global village” where countries are only seconds away by fax or phone or satellite link. And, of course, our ability to benefit from this high-tech communications equipment is greatly improved by foreign language skills.

　　Deeply involved in this new technology are a group of modern business people who have a growing respect for the economic value of doing business abroad. In modern markets, success overseas often helps support domestic(国内的) business efforts.

　　Thanks to a variety of relatively inexpensive communications devices with business applications, even small businesses in the United States are able to get into international markets. English is still the international language of business. But there is an ever-growing need for people who can speak another language. A second language isn’t generally required to get a job in business, but having language skills gives a candidate the edge when other qualifications appear to be equal.

　　The employee posted abroad who speaks the country’s principal language has an opportunity to fast-forward certain negotiations, and can have the cultural insight to know when it is better to move more slowly. The employee at the home office who can communicate well with foreign clients(客户) over the telephone or by fax machine is an obvious advantage to the firm.

　　66. What is the author’s attitude toward high-tech communications equipment？

　　ACritical.

　　B. Prejudiced.

　　C. Indifferent

　　D. Positive.

　　67. With the increased use of high-tech communications equipment, business people ________.

　　A. have to get familiar with modern technology

　　B. are gaining more economic benefits from domestic operations

　　C. are attaching more importance to their overseas business

　　D. are eager to work overseas

　　68. In this passage, “out of sight and out of mind”（Lines 2-3 Para. 3）probably means ________.

　　Abeing unable to think properly for lack of insight

　　B. being totally out of touch with business at home

　　C. missing opportunities for promotion when abroad

　　D. leaving all care and worry behind

　　69. According to the passage, what is an important consideration of international corporations in employing people today？

　　AConnections with businesses overseas.

　　B. Ability to speak the client’s language.

　　C. Technical know-how.

　　D. Business experience.

　　70. The advantage of employees having foreign language skills is that they can ________.

　　A. better control the whole negotiation process

　　B. easily find new approaches to meet market needs

　　C. fast-forward their proposals to headquarters

　　D. easily make friends with businesspeople abroad

　　PART

　　FOUR: WRITING

　　Section

　　A

　　Directions: Read the following passage. Complete the diagram by using the information for the passage. Write NO MORE THAN 3 WORDS for each answer.

　　In simple words, hibernation is a state of deep sleep. Hibernation differs from normal sleep in various ways. Hibernating animals take a long time to wake up from their sleep. Turning or kicking their bodies does not seem to wake them up. Even after waking up from hibernation, these animals take some time to restart their normal activities. During hibernation, the heart rate slows down and some of the non-vital organs become entirely inactive. This is a state in which the body uses very little energy.

　　Winter is the time when food is less and weather rough. Animals have to spend a lot of energy finding food. Even if they succeed in finding anything, it is often not enough to make up for the loss of energy. Besides, the cold weather may often become a cause of death. As a result of all these, animals have to reduce their food demand by reducing energy requirements. This is achieved by hibernating throughout the winter.

　　Before the onset of winter, when there is plenty of food, animals eat overmuch and store much of the food in the form of fat. As winter arrives, they return to their home where they spend the rest of winter hibernating. As animals hibernate, their body temperature starts dropping due to lack of activity and metabolism(新陈代谢). At one point, it is only a few degrees higher than the surrounding temperature. Whatever energy the body needs to perform certain tasks is got from the fat storage. Due to lack of activity, the fat burning process is slow and steady. The energy from fat is enough to keep the animal alive for the rest of the winter.

　　Hibernation differs for every species. For example, some animals like black bears may sleep throughout the winter without waking up while animals like squirrels may wake up every 4 days to eat some food, pass waste matter from the body, and then go back to sleep. Hibernation in domestic(家养的) animals may differ from that in the wild ones. As there is no food shortage for domestic animals, domestic animals hibernate as a result of their natural instinct(本能) but with more active periods in between.

　　Directions: Read the following passage. Answer the questions according to the information given in the passage.

　　(Reuters) — At least 115 miners were pulled alive from a flooded coal mine in north China after being trapped for over a week, eating bark to survive, prompting extremely happy officials to hail their survival a miracle.

　　Officials said 153 miners were trapped in the unfinished Wangjialing mine, belonging to two of China's larger state-owned firms in Xiangning, Shanxi Province, after water gushed (喷, 涌into the shafts last Sunday.

　　Late on Sunday night and throughout Monday, the survivors were pulled out from a platform, where the rescuers had drilled a vertical hole to ensure oxygen in the water-flooded pit and send down bags of glucose (葡萄糖. Thirty-eight miners were still missing.

　　"It is a miracle," said Luo Lin, head of the State Administration of Work Safety. "The trapped miners stayed so firmly determined down the mine shaft, passing through eight days and eight nights to live." The workers also survived by eating bark from pine wood used in building the mines, Chinese television said.

　　The government had succeeded in encouraging thousands of rescue workers to pump out water and search for the miners. After that, the water level dropped low enough for rescue workers to enter the shaft.

　　It was rare good news in China's dangerous coal-mining industry, the deadliest in the world with thousands killed every year in floods, explosions, collapses and other accidents. Shanxi Province is the heartland of that industry.

　　Strong demand for energy and not strict safety standards have made China's mines often deadly places to work, despite a government drive to clamp down on (对……进行压制或取缔) small, unsafe operations where most accidents occur.

　　Workers are tempted into (被诱惑去) the mines by wages that can be much higher than for many other jobs open to blue-collar workers and rural migrants.

　　China has consolidated (合并) or taken over many private mines, which has helped cut accidents. According to official statistics, the number of people killed in Chinese coal mines dropped to 2,631 in 2009, an average of seven a day, from 3,215 in 2008. But the deadliest accidents are not limited to private firms.

　　81. According to the second paragraph, what caused the serious accident?

　　(no more than 6 words)

　　82. How did the rescuers manage to send down oxygen and bags of glucose into the pit? (no more than 5 words)

　　83. According to the passage, what measures does the government take to help cut accidents? (no more than 13 words)

　　84. What is the news about? (no more than 12 words)
