Postgraduate study ranges from programs emphasizing intensive training in a specific aspect of
professional practice 1 degree programs of several years’ duration, either in an academic 2 a
professional field. Many professions also require periodic postgraduate study in 3 to maintain
certification for practice.
Graduate schools generally award master’s degrees or doctorates to 4 who have satisfactorily
completed prescribed 5 of study. A year is usually required to obtain a master’s degree, 6
demands the acquisition of a 7 level of knowledge than is needed for a baccalaureate. The doctoral
8 involves a longer period of study and requires participation 9 and summation of some type of
original research, as well as written and 10 examinations.
The demands for specific courses of postgraduate study change with the 11 of society. In most
developing nations, for example, professional 12 in engineering and the health sciences is 13
great demand. In the United States and Canada the 14 of persons applying to schools of medicine, and
business management greatly increased during 15 1970s. Preparation for a 16 in medicine
represents the most intensive curriculum, 17 a medical degree requires at least four years beyond the
baccalaureate, and 18 into a medical specialty can require four or more years of study. Many other
occupations are currently 19 upgraded to the status of professions, 20 accompanying increases in
the amount of postgraduate education needed for entry and advancement.
B. Fill in each blank with a proper word from the following box. Change its form if necessary and write down
the required word on the answer sheet. (10 points)

New York will bestow the gifts of loneliness and privacy on anyone who desires such queer prizes. It is
this largeness that accounts for the 1 within the city’s walls of a 2 section of the population; for the
科目代码：620 科目名称：基础英语 第 3 页 共 11 页
residents of Manhattan are largely strangers who have pulled up 3 somewhere and come to town, seeking
4 or fulfillment or some greater or lesser grail. The capacity to make such 5 gifts is a mysterious
quality of New York. It can destroy an individual, or it can 6 him, depending a good deal on luck. No one
should come to New York to live unless he is willing to be 7 .
Although New York often imparts a feeling of great 8 or 9 , it seldom seems dead or
un-resourceful; and you always feel that either by shifting your 10 ten blocks or by reducing your 11
by five dollars you can experience 12 . Many people who have no real 13 of spirit depend on the
city’s 14 variety and sources of excitement for spiritual 15 and 16 of morale. In the country there are a
few 17 of sudden rejuvenation—a shift in weather, perhaps, or something arriving in the mail. But in
New York the chances are endless. I think that although many persons are here from some 18 of spirit
(which caused them to break away from their small town), some, too, are here from a 19 of spirit, who
find in New York a 20 , or an easy substitution.
III. Error correction (20 points)
Directions: There are twenty mistakes in the following passage. You are required to underline or mark the
mistakes and get them corrected. Be sure to write down the correct form on the answer sheet.
Example: “Wordsworth is said to have ∨ most fascinating voice!” the
Here I would like to make a personal remark regarding basic research and
the wonderful life of an university professor in science. He has the freedom to 1
follow his scientific pursue wherever it leads, and he is kept alert and young by 2
the stream of brilliant students who go through his laboratories and classrooms.
I can think of not better job—except that of an emeritus professor who has all 3
of the joy of a university and without its responsibilities. 4
I have come to believe also that programmatic research is an extraordinary 5
powerful institution which can solve almost some material problem if we put 6
enough effort into them. In teamwork in research, both basic and applied, 7
progress depend on the past experience of the scientists, and two minds with 8
different background are more than twice as effective as one. The team 9
approach in research is demonstrated its power, and it will be even more 10
importantly in the future. 11
Other important factor in the phenomenal development of science has been 12
and will continue to be the available of new apparatus for making 13
measurements. The perfection of electronic equipments has accelerated 14
laboratory readings and greatly increased its accuracy; and mathematical 15
computing machines are revolutionized many branches of science, making 16
possible the solution of heretofore insoluble problems and carrying on in 17
minutes calculations that used to take months. The still great use of 18
computers will be an important factor in speeding up the development of
all science and technology in the future. 19
We might try to pick out a few of the outstanding achievements in science
during recent years before we try to consider that some of the achievements 20
of the future may be.
