【正文】 their effects can be measured and predicted, but of their nature no more is known to the modern scientist than to Thales who first looked into the nature of the electrification of amber, a hard yellowishbrown gum. Most contemporary physicists reject the notion that man can ever discover what these mysterious forces “really” are. “Electricity,” Bertrand Russell says, “is not a thing, like St. Paul’s Cathedral。這個(gè)問(wèn)題顯得越來(lái)越重要了。77. 他一畢業(yè)馬上就被一所他自己選中的大學(xué)所接受，再花三、四年時(shí)間，以優(yōu)異的成績(jī)?nèi)〉脴s譽(yù)學(xué)位，成為一名專家，但對(duì)外界的一切卻幾乎一無(wú)所知。75. 當(dāng)然，關(guān)于一個(gè)人如何最充分地利用上大學(xué)的時(shí)間，還有另外一個(gè)方面。73. 學(xué)校由于受課程表和紀(jì)律的約束，氣氛往往令人感到過(guò)于拘束，使學(xué)生沒(méi)有充分時(shí)間對(duì)規(guī)定要他做的事情有獨(dú)立的見(jiàn)解。Section VIII: EnglishChinese TranslationDirections:Translate the following passage into Chinese. Only the underlined sentences are to be translated. (20 points)It would be interesting to discover how many young people go to university without any clear idea of what they are going to do afterwards. (71) If one considers the enormous variety of courses offered, it is not hard to see how difficult it is for a student to select the course most suited to his interests and abilities. (72) If a student goes to university to acquire a broader perspective of life, to enlarge his ideas and to learn to think for himself, he will undoubtedly benefit. (73) Schools often have too restricting an atmosphere, with its time tables and disciplines, to allow him much time for independent assessment of the work he is asked to do. (74) Most students would, I believe, profit by a year of such exploration of different academic studies, especially those “all rounders” with no particular interest. They should have longer time to decide in what subject they want to take their degrees, so that in later life, they do not look back and say, “I should like to have been an archaeologist. If I hadn’t taken a degree in Modern Languages, I shouldn’t have ended up as an interpreter, but it’s too late now. I couldn’t go back and begin all over again.”(75) There is, of course, another side to the question of how to make the best use of one’s time at university. (76) This is the case of the student who excels in a particular branch of learning. (77) He is immediately accepted by the University of his choice, and spends his three or four years being a specialist, emerging with a firstclass Honour Degree and very little knowledge of what the rest of the world is all about. (78) It therefore bees more and more important that, if students are not to waste their opportunities, there will have to be much more detailed information about courses and more advice. Only in this way can we be sure that we are not to have, on the one hand, a band of specialists ignorant of anything outside of their own subject, and on the other hand, an ever increasing number of graduates qualified in subjects for which there is little or no demand in the working world. 1986年參考答案Section I: Structure and Vocabulary (15 points)1.
