They were quite happy to watch it go round and round 23 thepoint of the ritual was the spinning disk,whatever sound was coming out of the two ancient speakers.“Richard Burton is the best,” my husband then cut in 24 . As the dark Welsh 25 of Burton beganto narrate(解说) Dylan Thomas’s radio drama Under Milk Wood, the children would settle in silence, 26their listening positions in the sitting room by the fire, only slightly anxious about how to convey withoutcomplaining out loud their deep concerns about being detained too long from toys, televisions and presents.My husband will sonorously(洪亮地) 27 his favourite bits so we all benefit from hearing the words instereo(立体声). Our Master’s Voice and Burton’s declaiming Under Milk Wood together.“It is a spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black…”Filled with seasonal feeling and wonder as any bible reading or carol,the best bit for me is watching mychildren’s faces as the 28 words make pictures in their heads 29 Dylan Thomas’s unimprovableformulations: they see the dogs in the wet-nosed yards and they hear the hushed town breathing.This is as much a part of Christmas as a Festival of Ten Lessons and Carols from Kings to all my family, andthis is 30 :Even though cold and silence and blackness run through the piece like a layer of 31 , it beatswith heat and warmth. It is a celebration of humanity. Compare the words of “Silent Night” to this:“Time passes. Listen. Time passes.Only you can hear the houses sleeping in the streets in the slow deep saltand silent black, bandaged night.”Of course, on the face of it, Thomas’s A Child’s Christmas in Wales is the more 32 text, and myhusband will often play or read that too. The 33 lines of A Child’s Christmas, “I said some words to theclose and holy darkness, and then I 34 ,” are perfectly final.Dylan Thomas rounds off his little story of hisWelsh childhood as Shakespeare rounds off our little lives – with a sleep.All is dark, all is bright in both, but the one I ponder 35 my heart is Under Milk Wood.16.A.rely B.return C.reply D.repeat17.A.song B.dance C.lyric D.music18.A.integral B.extra C.optional D.compulsory19.A.experimental B.annual C.daily D.unusual20.A.opposed B.outweighed C.observed D.obsessed21.A.toy B.poem C.record D.trick22.A.puzzled B.scared C.amazed D.calm23.A.in term of B.as though C.in that D.even though24.A.happily B.peacefully C.hurriedly D.confidently25.A.tones B.sounds C.sighs D.whispers26.A.adapting B.assuming C.avoiding D.arming27.A.lead in B.join in C.take in D.sink in28.A.timeless B.priceless C.worthless D.lifeless29.A.under B.beneath C.via D.without30.A.when B.what C.where D.why31.A.coal B.ice C.oil D.flame32.A.admirable B.appropriate C.acknowledged D.apparent33.A.winding B.promising C.closing D.stopping34.A.woke B.suicided C.died D.slept35.A.in B.over C.across D.beyond2 / 18第二部分 阅读理解 (共 20小题:每小题 2.5分,满分 50分)阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项 A、B、C、D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。APRESS ON VINYL PRODUCTIONBuild Your Vinyl Package!Step One / Mastering & CuttingAt Press On Vinyl we understand how important the audio quality of your record is to you and your fans.We can help guide you through the process to ensure your audio files are ready to hit the lathe(进入机床)(see our FAQ).

He was lying on his hard, as it were armor-plated, back and when he lifted his head a little hecould see his dome-like brown belly divided into stiff arched segments on top of which the bed quilt could hardlykeep in position and was about to slide off completely. His numerous legs, which were pitifully thin compared tothe rest of his body, waved helplessly before his eyes.What has happened to me he thought. It was no dream. His room, a regular human bedroom, only rather toosmall, lay quiet between the four familiar white walls. Above the table on which a collection of cloth samples wasunpacked and spread out- Samsa was a commercial traveler-hung the picture which he had recently cut out of anillustrated magazine and put into a pretty golden frame. It showed a lady. Gregor's eyes turned next to the window,and the overcast sky-one could hear rain drops beating on the window-made him quite melancholy(忧郁的). Whatabout sleeping a little longer and forgetting all this nonsense, he thought, but it could not be done, for he wasaccustomed to sleep on his right side and in his present condition he could not turn himself over. Howeverviolently he forced himself towards his right side he always rolled on to his back again. He tried it at least ahundred times, shutting his eyes to keep from seeing his struggling legs, and only stopped when he began to feelin him a faint ache he had never experienced before.He thought:"what an exhausting job I've picked on!" Traveling about day in, day out. It's much more boringwork than doing the actual business in the office, and on top of that there's the trouble of constant traveling, ofworrying about train connections, the bed and irregular meals, casual acquaintances that are always new and neverbecome intimate friends. The devil take it all! He felt a slight itching up on his belly; slowly pushed himself on hisback nearer to the top of the bed so that he could lift his head more easily; identified the itching place which wassurrounded by many small white spots the nature of which he could not understand and made to touch it with a leg,but drew the leg back immediately, for the contact made a cold shiver run through him.......(to be continued)40. What might Gregor Samsa look like when he woke up A. A normal commercial traveler. B. Something ridiculous.C. A huge insect with thick legs. D. A lady in the gift frame.41. What can we know about Samsa’s room A. It was a regular room and tidy. B. There was no window for him to look outside his tiny room.C. Its walls were dull and pale. D. There was a magazine and a pretty golden frame on the table.42. How might Samsa feel when he found his transformation A. Extremely frightened. B. Indifferent.C. Relieved. D. Unreal.43. Samsa couldn’t turn over because .A. his present condition restricted himB. it rained hard outside, which distracted himC. it was just the right position and the side he used to lie inD. it was painful to do as he might knock his feet on the wall44. What can we conclude from the last paragraph A. Samsa felt unsatisfied about his life before.B. Samsa would rather do actual business.C. Samsa couldn’t identify where was itching however he tried.D. The white spots felt cold when Samsa touched them.4 / 18CRecord pressing companies are handling ongoing supply chain issues and accelerating demand for vinylreleases pushes long-playing sales to record highs.According to the British Phonographic Industry (BPI), more than five million vinyl records were bought in2021. It means that vinyl comprised 23% of all albums sold in the UK last year, the trade body(行业机构) saysthat vinyl is on course to beat CDs as the dominant physical medium of choice for music fans this year.Some big-name releases in the latter half of the year are expected to push the sales even higher. The latestrelease from Harry Styles, Harry’s House, broke records in May has become the quickest-selling vinyl album inthe US since 1991, selling 182,000 copies in its first week.In the US, profits from the sale of vinyl albums grew by 61% in 2021, far outpacing growth rates for paidmusic and streaming services like Spotify, according to the Recording Industry Association of America.But in the wake of the revival(复兴) are some significant production problems. Dozens of record-pressingfactories have been built to try to meet demand in North America – and it’s still not enough.The industry " has found a new gear, and is accelerating at a new pace", said Mark Michaels, boss of UnitedRecord Pressing, America’s largest record producer, in Nashville, Tennessee. There are now about 40 plants in theUS – most of them smaller operations – but challenges remain. Where major record labels may have once pressedthe records for their artists, now the manufacture of the discs is increasingly carried out by independent plants.Some, like Jack White’s Third Man Pressing, based in Detroit, are run by musicians themselves.Backlogs(积压的工作) are preventing new releases, however, as the capacity of smaller firms to press newvinyl releases is held up by growing demand and supply chain failures. Shortages of raw materials melted andflattened into the actual records, have caused widespread problems.It is uneasy to launch a new plant becausethere are a handful of companies that make record-pressing machines. Those machines are backordered, as well.In the UK, Press On Vinyl, have been established in recent years to meet increasing demand from acts of allsizes to have their tunes preserved in a physical format.The pressing plant adapts cutting-edge technology tomake records with lower energy consumption, better quality control and a smaller chance of adding surface noiseto the records than other manufacturing techniques.But Danny Lowe, co-founder of the business along with David Todd, says:"Widespread problems along thesupply chain are leaving record pressers at risk of being unable to meet the growing appetite for vinyl.""Demandhas grown from all quarters, "says Lowe, "whether from smaller independent artists who only order a run of 100or so records, up to bigger acts who can take up the plant’s capacity for a while at a time. ""We’ve just added moremachinery to our production line so that we have more available capacity."he explains.45. Which understanding of the underlined words isWRONG A. Vinyl : a kind of material. B. Big-name : famous.C. Backorder : delay filling the order. D. A physical format : a finding in physics.46. What can we infer from Para.2 - Para.3 A. Physical medium has dominated the CD industry this year.B. Vinyl comprised 23% of albums’ total sale of more than five million according to BPI.C. The latest release from Harry House, Harry’s Styles, sold more than 180 thousand copies in its first week.D. Big-name releases contributed to even higher sales.47. Which statements COULD be the reasons of the increase in the sale of vinyl albums ① Because of fans economy. ② Thanks to paid music and streaming services.③ It was the newly-built factories that met the huge requirement.④ The efficiency promotion, benefited from a new technique.A.①④ B. ①③④ C. ①②④ D.②③④48. Why was Press On Vinyl founded A. Because it had advanced technology. B. To fill in the industry blank.C. To arouse people’s love for vinyl. D. Because of considerable benefits.5 / 1849. What can we know about David Todd and Danny Lowe A. David Todd pointed out that the problem was they couldn’t meet needs.B. Danny Lowe thought there was a need to supplement workers.C. David Todd put more effort in the foundation of Press On Vinyl.D. They both held a positive attitude towards the industry prospect.50.What may be talked next in the article A. What made the record industry so low.B. The importance of promoting physical medium.C. Other ways adopted to improve the situation.D. Where records could have a better sale.DThe writer of the Epilogue(结语) to my copy of Goethe’s Faust, Hanns W Eppelsheimer, refers to “humanarrogance(傲慢), rising up against the spirits, in order to seize a piece of power for itself, with the aid of wizardryand magic,” as “a very old theme”. He adds: “At the beginning of modern times, when the Renaissance set sciencefree, the simple desires for power, wealth and sensual pleasure(感官享乐) came to be joined by the new strivingfor unlimited knowledge.” Enter the historical Faust, the semi-biographical stories about his life.Let’s go much further back in time. At the beginning of the ancient Biblical Book of Job(圣经·约伯记), the“sons of God” and Satan come before God.“And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job ”(Note the word “servant”).God confirms Job’s goodness. Satan counters that Job is good only because he is inreceipt of God’s favours. If he were to suffer, he would curse God. God empowers Satan to test Job, making himsuffer. Job loses his family and his animals and his health and retains only the company of his wife. His wife urgesJob to curse God, but he refuses firmly.The story ties into the problem of why good people suffer, where Goethe borrows a theme into Prologue buthas changed it out of all recognition:The Lord: Do you know Faust Mephistopheles: The Doctor The Lord: My servant!God acknowledges that Faust serves him, through his striving, despite the mistakes he is sure to make; andFaust remains aware of the correct path to take through life. While God, indeed, permits Mephistopheles to try todivert(转移) Faust from his “fountainhead”. Mephistopheles appreciates the favour and sets to work.And then wemeet Faust himself, alone in his study at night, at the beginning of the drama proper, and he speaks for himself:Ah, now I’ve studied philosophy, jurisprudence and medicine, and alas, theology as well, ardently andpainstakingly, from beginning to end.He has learnt a great deal; but he wants to learn more, beyond the bounds of handed down knowledge –metaphysics(形而上学), perhaps, or the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.Early in Part 1 of the drama, Faust makes his own bargain with Mephistopheles: if he ever relaxes from hisstriving and wishes to stay still, in the beautiful moment, then Mephistopheles can take his pared to Job,Goethe’s hero, instead, is not made to suffer: rather, new enjoyments of life are opened up to him. Unfortunately,Faust’s own joy can be at the expense of other people. (The tragedy of Part 1 is that of Gretchen and her family)In Part 2,regretful about his faults before, Faust engages in good works, especially, the reclamation oflow-lying land from the sea(填海造陆). There arises, though, from the writings of the New Testament(圣经新约),the question as to whether good works are sufficient to ensure salvation(救赎) – a Christian theological(基督教神学的) debating point. St Paul explores this : “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without thedeeds of the law”. Luther is saying here that “a man is justified, without the deeds of the law, only by faith.” Headds the “only”. On this view, Faust’s good works cannot be sufficient for his salvation. We can add that Faustdoes not have faith, either.Finally, at the end of the drama, Faust does have one moment of relaxation, and, accordingly, Mephistophelestries to arrest his soul. But, in the event, Mephistopheles is cheated of his long-sought-after prize – by the6 / 18intervention of angels, including a transformed Gretchen. Faust is enabled to ascend(上升) to Heaven. Faust’ssalvation, on Goethe’s terms, relies upon his own striving, the appearance of the “eternal feminine(永恒女性)”,and the words of forgiveness uttered by his female victim (Gretchen).Let’s talk briefly about the nature of the completed Faust. It is almost entirely in verse(诗歌). It is extremelylong. Whereas many verse dramas of Shakespeare and his contemporaries average roughly 2000 lines, and Part 1of Faust has 4,612 lines, and Part 2 has 7,499! Moreover, Part 2 has literally hundreds of parts. Therefore, eitherPart poses great challenges, whenever a staging is contemplated.I conclude, indeed, that Faust is a poem, and not a play, a drama or a tragedy as ordinarily conceived.51. What’s function of the first paragraph A. To introduce the topic. B. To inform readers of the Epilogue to Faust of his version.C. To advertise a classic book. D. To introduce a translator called Hanns W Eppelsheimer.52. What does the underlined word“him” in Para.2 refer to A.God. B. Satan. C. Job. D. Faust.53. Which statement is TRUE about Faust A. Part 1 of the drama : Unsatisfied, Faust has learnt a lot in his long life, but he pursues the knowledge fromMephistopheles, which.is a trap designed by God. He gains great joy at the cost of Gretchen’s tragedy.B. Part 2 of the drama : Repentant(忏悔的), Faust devotes himself to a great cause, which still cannot make up forwhat he has done before according to a Christian theological debating point, as he doesn’t have faith.C. At the end of the drama : Faust does have one moment of relaxation, but Mephistopheles doesn’t take his “prize”because of angles’ intervention. Faust is ascended to Heaven, made a true hero.D. At the end of the drama : Gretchen, the female victim in this play or so-called “eternal feminine”, forgivesFaust, completing his salvation.54. Which statement is FALSE about Faust A. There are many different versions of Faust.B. Goethe adapts Bible in a totally different way in Prologue of Faust.C. It can’t be a easy job for Goethe to finish Faust alone.D. Faust is actually a brilliant long poem with more than ten thousand lines.55. Which is the most suitable title of the passage A. Goethe: A Talented Prophet(先知) B. Faust: A Tragic VerseC. Gretchen: A Poor-Fated Lover D. Devil: A Forever Deceiver7 / 18第 II卷 (非选择题,共 35分)第三部分:写作第一节:阅读表达 (共 5小题;每小题 2分,满分 10分)阅读短文,并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。Pink Floyd have announced that they are removing their music from streaming services in Russia and Belarus.In a statement released, the band condemned(谴责) Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and confirmed that all of theband’s music from 1987 onwards will no longer be available to stream in the two countries. The statement read“To stand with the world in strongly condemning Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the works of Pink Floyd, from1987 onwards, and all of David Gilmour’s solo recordings are being removed from all digital music providers inRussia and Belarus from today”, as they looked to show solidarity with Ukraine.Gilmour, who has Ukrainian family, separately declared: “Russian soldiers, stop killing your brothers. Therewill be no winners in this war. My daughter-in-law is Ukrainian and my grand-daughters want to visit and knowtheir beautiful country. Stop this before it is all destroyed. Putin must go.”Pink Floyd co-founder Roger Waters recently penned an open letter regarding the conflict. Fiercely criticisingRussia and Vladimir Putin, he wrote: “I am disgusted by Putin’s invasion of Ukraine. It is a criminal mistake inmy opinion, the act of a gangster.”Since the start of the conflict, numerous artists such as Elton John and Young Thug have criticised Russia’sinvasion and many acts have cancelled tours of the country including Franz Ferdinand, Louis Tomlinson andGreen Day.56.

They were quite happy to watch it go round and round 23 thepoint of the ritual was the spinning disk,whatever sound was coming out of the two ancient speakers.“24.Richard Burton is the best,” my husband then cut in 24 . As the dark Welsh 25 of Burtonbegan to narrate(解说) Dylan Thomas’s radio drama Under Milk Wood, the children would settle in silence, 26their listening positions in the sitting room by the fire, only slightly anxious about how to convey withoutcomplaining out loud their deep concerns about being detained too long from toys, televisions and presents.My husband will sonorously(洪亮地) 27 his favourite bits so we all benefit from hearing the words instereo(立体声). Our Master’s Voice and Burton’s declaiming Under Milk Wood together.“It is a spring, moonless night in the small town, starless and bible-black…”Filled with seasonal feeling and wonder as any bible reading or carol,the best bit for me is watching mychildren’s faces as the 28 words make pictures in their heads 29 Dylan Thomas’s unimprovableformulations: they see the dogs in the wet-nosed yards and they hear the hushed town breathing.This is as much a part of Christmas as a Festival of Ten Lessons and Carols from Kings to all my family, andthis is 30 :Even though cold and silence and blackness run through the piece like a layer of 31 , it beatswith heat and warmth. It is a celebration of humanity. Compare the words of “Silent Night” to this:“Time passes. Listen. Time passes.Only you can hear the houses sleeping in the streets in the slow deep saltand silent black, bandaged night.”Of course, on the face of it, Thomas’s A Child’s Christmas in Wales is the more 32 text, and myhusband will often play or read that too. The 33 lines of A Child’s Christmas, “I said some words to theclose and holy darkness, and then I 34 ,” are perfectly final.Dylan Thomas rounds off his little story of hisWelsh childhood as Shakespeare rounds off our little lives – with a sleep.All is dark, all is bright in both, but the one I ponder 35 my heart is Under Milk Wood.B16.A.rely B.return C.reply D.repeat本题考查动词辨析。A.依赖 B.返回(此处引申为一读再读) C.回复 D.重复D17.A.song B.dance C.lyric D.music本题考查名词的使用。结合空前无冠词,选出 D项。A18.A.integral B.extra C.optional D.compulsory本题考查形容词辨析。A.不可或缺的 B.额外的 C.可选的 D.强制的B19.A.experimental B.annual C.daily D.unusual本题考查形容词辨析。A.实验的 B.年度的 C.每日的 D.不寻常的C20.A.opposed B.outweighed C.observed D.obsessed本题考查动词辨析。A.反对 B.超出 C.庆祝;遵守 D.迷恋C21.A.toy B.poem C.record D.trick本题考查名词辨析。A.玩具 B.诗歌 C.唱片(结合下文叙述可选出) D.把戏12 / 18C22.A.puzzled B.scared C.amazed D.calm本题考查形容词词辨析。A.困惑的 B.害怕的 C.惊奇的 D.冷静的B23.A.in term of B.as though C.in that D.even though本题考查介词短语辨析。A.关于;在...方面 B.就像 C.因为 D.即使D24.A.happily B.peacefully C.hurriedly D.confidently本题考查副词辨析。A.开心地 B.平静地 C.急忙地 D.自信地A25.A.tones B.sounds C.sighs D.whispers本题考查名词辨析。A.(专指人的)口吻,腔调 B.声响 C.叹息 D.低语(结合下文“解说”可排除)B26.A.adapting B.assuming C.avoiding D.arming本题考查动词辨析。A.改编;适应 B.装出,做出(熟词生义) C.避免 D.武装;装备B27.A.lead in B.join in C.take in D.sink in本题考查动词短语辨析。A.导致 B.加入(此处引申为一起朗读) C.吸收;理解;欺骗 D.沉入;思考A28.A.timeless B.priceless C.worthless D.lifeless本题考查形容词辨析。A.恒久的,经久不衰的 B.无价的 C.没有价值的 D.没有生机的C29.A.under B.beneath C.via D.without本题考查介词辨析。C.通过D30.A.when B.what C.where D.why本题考查引导表语从句的关系词。分析句意可选出 D项。A31.A.coal B.ice C.oil D.flame本题考查名词辨析。A.煤炭(结合上下文意可选出) B.冰 C.油 D.火焰B32.A.admirable B.appropriate C.acknowledged D.apparent本题考查形容词辨析。A.可敬佩的 B.合适的 C.被承认的 D.明显的C33.A.winding B.promising C.closing D.stopping本题考查固定搭配。Closing line 译为“结语”。D34.A.woke B.suicided C.died D.slept本题考查动词辨析。结合下文“sleep”可选出A35.A.in B.over C.across D.beyond本题考查介词辨析。分析句子结构可知 in my heart为状语,而非 ponder over。(注:ponder 有及物用法)13 / 18第二部分 阅读理解 (共 20小题:每小题 2.5分,满分 50分)APRESS ON VINYL PRODUCTIONBuild Your Vinyl Package!Step One / Mastering & CuttingAt Press On Vinyl we understand how important the audio quality of your record is to you and your fans.We can help guide you through the process to ensure your audio files are ready to hit the lathe(进入机床)(see our FAQ).

He was lying on his hard, as it were armor-plated, back and when he lifted his head a little hecould see his dome-like brown belly divided into stiff arched segments on top of which the bed quilt could hardlykeep in position and was about to slide off completely. 40.(C)His numerous legs, which were pitifully thincompared to the rest of his body, waved helplessly before his eyes.What has happened to me he thought. It was no dream. His room, a regular human bedroom, only rather toosmall, lay quiet between the four familiar white walls. Above the table on which a collection of cloth samples was41.(A)unpacked and spread out- Samsa was a commercial traveler-hung the picture which he had recently cut outof an illustrated magazine and put into a pretty golden frame. It showed a lady. Gregor's eyes turned next to thewindow, and the overcast sky-one could hear rain drops beating on the window-made him quite melancholy(忧郁的). 42.What about sleeping a little longer and forgetting all this nonsense, he thought, 43.(A)but it could not bedone, for he was accustomed to sleep on his right side and in his present condition he could not turn himself over.However violently he forced himself towards his right side he always rolled on to his back again. He tried it atleast a hundred times, shutting his eyes to keep from seeing his struggling legs, and only stopped when he beganto feel in him a faint ache he had never experienced before.44.(A)He thought:"what an exhausting job I've picked on!" Traveling about day in, day out. It's much moreboring work than doing the actual business in the office, and on top of that there's the trouble of constant traveling,of worrying about train connections, the bed and irregular meals, casual acquaintances that are always new andnever become intimate friends. The devil take it all! He felt a slight itching up on his belly; slowly pushed himselfon his back nearer to the top of the bed so that he could lift his head more easily; identified the itching placewhich was surrounded by many small white spots the nature of which he could not understand and made to touchit with a leg, but drew the leg back immediately, for the contact made a cold shiver run through him.......(to be continued)B40.

It means that vinyl comprised 23% of all albums sold 46.(B)in the UK last year, the trade body(行业机构)says that vinyl is on course(将要) to beat CDs as the dominant physical medium of choice for music fans thisyear.Some big-name releases in the latter half of the year are expected to push the sales even higher. The latestrelease from 46.(C)Harry Styles, Harry’s House, broke records in May 47.①has become the quickest-selling vinylalbum in the US since 1991, selling 182,000 copies in its first week.In the US, profits from the sale of vinyl albums grew by 61% in 2021, 47.②far outpacing growth rates forpaid music and streaming services like Spotify(与黑胶销量的增长无关), according to the Recording IndustryAssociation of America.But in the wake of the revival(复兴) are some significant production problems. Dozens of record-pressingfactories have been built to try to meet demand in North America – and it’s still not enough.47.④The industry " has found a new gear, and is accelerating at a new pace", said Mark Michaels, boss ofUnited Record Pressing, America’s largest record producer, in Nashville, Tennessee. 47.③There are now about 40plants in the US – most of them smaller operations – but challenges remain(未能满足需求). Where major recordlabels may have once pressed the records for their artists, now the manufacture of the discs is increasingly carriedout by independent plants. Some, like Jack White’s Third Man Pressing, based in Detroit, are run by musiciansthemselves.Backlogs(积压的工作) are preventing new releases, however, as the capacity of smaller firms to press newvinyl releases is held up by growing demand and supply chain failures. Shortages of raw materials melted andflattened into the actual records, have caused widespread problems.It is uneasy to launch a new plant becausethere are a handful of companies that make record-pressing machines. Those machines are backordered, as well.In the UK, Press On Vinyl,48. have been established in recent years to meet increasing demand from acts ofall sizes to have their tunes preserved in a physical format.The pressing plant adapts cutting-edge technology tomake records with lower energy consumption, better quality control and a smaller chance of adding surface noiseto the records than other manufacturing techniques.But Danny Lowe, co-founder of the business along with David Todd, says:49.(A)"Widespread problemsalong the supply chain are leaving record pressers at risk of being unable to meet the growing appetite forvinyl.""Demand has grown from all quarters, "says Lowe, "whether from smaller independent artists who onlyorder a run of 100 or so records, up to bigger acts who can take up the plant’s capacity for a while at a time."49.(B)"We’ve just added more machinery to our production line so that we have more available capacity."heexplains.D45. Which understanding of the underlined words isWRONG A. Vinyl : a kind of material. B. Big-name : famous.C. Backorder : delay filling the order. D. A physical format : a finding in physics. 物理形式D46.

He adds: “At the beginning of modern times, when the Renaissance set sciencefree, the simple desires for power, wealth and sensual pleasure(感官享乐) came to be joined by the new strivingfor unlimited knowledge.” Enter the historical Faust, the semi-biographical stories about his life.Let’s go much further back in time. At the beginning of the ancient Biblical Book of Job(圣经·约伯记), the“sons of God” and Satan come before God.“And the Lord said unto Satan, Hast thou considered my servant Job ”(Note the word “servant”).God confirms Job’s goodness. Satan counters that Job is good only because he is inreceipt of God’s favours. If he were to suffer, he would curse God. God empowers Satan to test Job, making himsuffer. Job loses his family and his animals and his health and retains only the company of his wife. His wife urgesJob to curse God, but he refuses firmly.The story ties into the problem of why good people suffer, where Goethe borrows a theme into Prologue buthas changed it out of all recognition:The Lord: Do you know Faust Mephistopheles: The Doctor The Lord: My servant!God acknowledges that Faust serves him, through his striving, despite the mistakes he is sure to make; andFaust remains aware of the correct path to take through life. While God, indeed, permits Mephistopheles to try todivert(转移) Faust from his “fountainhead”. Mephistopheles appreciates the favour and sets to work.And then wemeet Faust himself, alone in his study at night, at the beginning of the drama proper, and he speaks for himself:Ah, now I’ve studied philosophy, jurisprudence and medicine, and alas, theology as well, ardently andpainstakingly, from beginning to end.He has learnt a great deal; but he wants to learn more, beyond the bounds of handed down knowledge –metaphysics(形而上学), perhaps, or the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge.Early in Part 1 of the drama, 53.(A)Faust makes his own bargain with Mephistopheles: if he ever relaxesfrom his striving and wishes to stay still, in the beautiful moment, then Mephistopheles can take his soul.Compared to Job, Goethe’s hero, instead, is not made to suffer: rather, new enjoyments of life are opened up tohim. Unfortunately, Faust’s own joy can be at the expense of other people. (The tragedy of Part 1 is that ofGretchen and her family)In Part 2,regretful about his faults before, Faust engages in good works, especially, the reclamation oflow-lying land from the sea(填海造陆). There arises, though, from the writings of the New Testament(圣经新约),17 / 18the question as to whether good works are sufficient to ensure salvation(救赎) – a Christian theological(基督教神学的) debating point. St Paul explores this : “Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without thedeeds of the law”. Luther is saying here that “a man is justified, without the deeds of the law, only by faith.” Headds the “only”. 53.(C)On this view, Faust’s good works cannot be sufficient for his salvation. We can add thatFaust does not have faith, either.Finally, at the end of the drama, Faust does have one moment of relaxation, and, accordingly, Mephistophelestries to arrest his soul. But, in the event, Mephistopheles is cheated of his long-sought-after prize – by theintervention of angels, including a transformed Gretchen. Faust is enabled to ascend(上升) to Heaven. Faust’ssalvation, on Goethe’s terms, relies upon his own striving, the appearance of the “eternal feminine(永恒女性)”,and the words of forgiveness uttered by his female victim (Gretchen).Let’s talk briefly about the nature of the completed Faust. It is almost entirely in verse(诗歌). It is extremelylong. Whereas many verse dramas of Shakespeare and his contemporaries average roughly 2000 lines, and Part 1of Faust has 4,612 lines, and Part 2 has 7,499! Moreover, Part 2 has literally hundreds of parts. Therefore, eitherPart poses great challenges, whenever a staging is contemplated.54.(D)I conclude, indeed, that Faust is a poem, and not a play, a drama or a tragedy as ordinarily conceived.A51. What’s function of the first paragraph 略,考查对文章段落作用的理解。A. To introduce the topic. B. To inform readers of the Epilogue to Faust of his version.C. To advertise a classic book. D. To introduce a translator called Hanns W Eppelsheimer.C52. What does the underlined word“him” in Para.2 refer to 略,考查代词的指代对象。A.God. B. Satan. C. Job. D. Faust.B53. Which statement is TRUE about Faust A. Part 1 of the drama : Unsatisfied, Faust has learnt a lot in his long life, but he pursues the knowledge fromMephistopheles(此处无中生有), which.is a trap designed by God. He gains great joy at the cost of Gretchen’stragedy.B. Part 2 of the drama : Repentant(忏悔的), Faust devotes himself to a great cause, which still cannot make up forwhat he has done before according to a Christian theological debating point, as he doesn’t have faith.C. At the end of the drama : Faust does have one moment of relaxation, but Mephistopheles doesn’t take his “prize”because of angles’ intervention. Faust is ascended to Heaven, made a true hero(. 干扰项 文中出现 hero 意为“主人公(男)”,选项中 hero意为“英雄”)D. At the end of the drama : Gretchen, the female victim in this play or so-called “eternal feminine”(两者不为一人,无中生有), forgives Faust, completing his salvation.D54. Which statement is FALSE about Faust A. There are many different versions of Faust.B. Goethe adapts Bible in a totally different way in Prologue of Faust.C. It can’t be a easy job for Goethe to finish Faust alone.D. Faust is actually a brilliant long poem(文中作者认为《浮士德》是诗,不同于寻常构思的戏剧;可《浮士德》本质上为戏剧。) with more than ten thousand lines.B55. Which is the most suitable title of the passage 略,《浮士德》一书为主要描写对象A.
