内容概要
博士生入学考试目前是我国最高层次的选拔性考试。作为国家高级复合型人才的选拔,博士生英语能力入学测试毫无疑问成为重要一环。现代社会是一个全球化的社会、信息化的社会,无论是日常沟通还是学术交流,英语作为世界语言的地位都不容忽视。因此,对于厉身锐志、报效祖国的莘莘学子来说,切实提高英语素质是当务之急。
词汇是学习英语的重要基础。词汇基础不扎实会严重影响听说读写译等各方面的能力。而对于选拔性的考试来说,词汇量不过关意味着其他任何能力、技巧都无从谈起。由于各种原因,英语考试对很多考生来说都是一大难题,其中最重要的因素就是词汇关。词汇不过关主要体现在两个方面,一是掌握的词汇数量不够,二是掌握词汇的质量不够。没有坚实过硬的词汇基础,英语阅读、写作和翻译能力都是无源之水、无本之木。为了满足广大考生的迫切需求,帮助考生顺利通过英语词汇关,我们汇集了命题研究组的精英人士倾力打造了这本《考博英语必考词汇真题精解一本全》。

章节摘录
版权页:插图:Even today, when air and road travel has made Africa so readily accessible to Europeans and Americans, there are innumerable aspects of African life which tend to take one by surprise. The unfamiliar lies hidden everywhere, and the presence of Western culture seems merely to emphasize this unfamiliarity. Basically, the essence of our reaction to the strange, the unfamiliar, is a sense of fear. Every country contains landscapes that arouse unease-whether it be some remote Alpine valley, the wild lavender fields of Upper Province, or a lonely Norwegian fjord at twilight. But in my own experience West Africa contains more weird and eerie regions-rain-forest, mangrove swamp, parched plains of red earth-than any other place that I have seen. It is not only in the foreigner that these landscapes evoke fear. A large part of all old African religions is devoted to soothing the unknown and the unseen-evil Spirits which live in a particular tree or a particular rock, a thousand varieties of ghosts and witches, the ever-present spirits of dead ancestors or relatives. I have myself been kept awake at night in Calabar by a friend from Lagos who was convinced that the witches of the east were out to get him, or that he was about to be kidnapped and eaten. During four and a half hours in a canoe along the creeks of the Niger delta, gliding over the still and colorless water beneath an equally still and colorless but burning sky, l , too, have experienced a sense of fear, or at least a sense of awe. Except for the ticking of the little outboard engine the silence was complete. On either hand stretched the silver-white swamps of mangrove, seeming, with their awkward ex- posed roots, to be standing knee-deep in the water. Where the creek narrowed you could peer deep into these thickets of mangroves-vistas secret, interminable and somehow meaningless. There was no sign of life except for the shrill screech of some unseen bird.
