Strength is one of the few ways that men, on average, exceed the abilities of women – but if that changed, it

would in fact be a continuation of the way that male identity and traditional masculinity is already being challenged

in the real world. In the past 50 years, women have become more independent and, in many cases, have overtaken

men in earnings, achievements and success. Technology is also muting gender differences, making historically

male-dominated fields such as manufacturing and the military open to women, who can now rely on intellect and

hand-eye coordination rather than upper body strength, for example, to build cars or engage in combat.

As a result, some men cling to their gender’s generally greater capacity for physical power as justification that

“somehow, men are still more entitled to power,” argues Jackson Katz, an author, lecturer and president of MVP

Strategies, a company that offers training and education on gender violence prevention. “As women have started

competing with men in areas that men had historically excluded them from, some men have retreated into this

world where size and physical strength matters even more, because it’s the one area where they continue to hold

advantage over women.”

Katz argues that this might help to explain some of the popularity and growth of American football, boxing,

MMA and other violent sports. “A man might not be able to understand or articulate this, but the thinking comes

down to, ‘Yes, a woman may make more money than me, my boss might be a woman, my wife might have better

job than me, but none of them can play football,’” Katz says. He notes, though, that obsession with gladiator-type

masculinity tends to be a predominantly American phenomenon.

On the plus side, if women were stronger, they would immediately become less subject to male harassment

and violence, and rape would go down “by orders of magnitude,” says Katz.

However, it might be wrong to assume that women’s superior strength would be benign. They are still capable

of violence: 17-45% of lesbians report physical abuse at the hands of a female partner, for example, and in

heterosexual couples – while women do suffer higher overall rates of victimisation – 19% of men say they have

been assaulted by a partner at least once. So, while male-on-female domestic abuse would likely decrease,

female-on-male cases would probably increase. “Men abuse women because they can – that’s the deal with being

strong,” Fairbairn says. “I like women a lot, but I don’t think we’re perfect.”

How inequalities and gender-based discrimination in the workplace might be affected is less clear. It is true

that masculine traits have long been associated with positions of power – think Margaret Thatcher training herself

to speak with a deeper voice to sound more authoritative, for example, or the rise of the pantsuit among 1970s

businesswomen as a means of seeking respect and acceptance from male colleagues. Should women no longer have

to use fashion, body language and voice training to masculinise themselves – should they naturally tower over male

colleagues – then gender-based discrimination, Fairbairn believes, would begin to disappear.

Gardiner doesn’t think it would be so straightforward, however. She points out that physical size and strength

are not necessarily factors in sustaining inequalities. “Whites are not larger and stronger, on average, than people of

colour,” she says. “Yet white supremacy has managed to hang on, without any obvious physical base.

Ⅱ. Proofreading and Error Correction (40 points, 2 points for each)

原文：

A honeybee queen, when all is right in her world, should live for two to three

years. But in the United States, beekeepers have seen that life span drop by more than

half over the past decade, and researchers are trying to determine why. It’s one of

many questions surrounding the mystery of honeybee mortality, a disturbing

phenomenon that’s linked to a mix of factors, including parasites, pesticides, and

habitat loss.

Aside from making a delicious natural sweetener, honeybees—which are not

native to the U.S.—also provide a crucial service to agriculture: pollination. From

apples to almonds, many crops would suffer without honeybees. And while about 90

percent of beekeepers in this country are hobbyists, the majority of hives belong to

large-scale,        commercial        operations,        says        North        Carolina        State        University

entomologist David Tarpy.

Colony collapse in general could be devastating to food production. So scientists

are looking for alternatives. Most honeybees in the U.S. today are of Italian heritage

and vulnerable to a pest called the varroa mite. But Russian bees are more resistant to

it, and backyard beekeepers have had success with them. The problem, says Tarpy, is

that Russian honeybees don’t make as much honey as their Italian counterparts and

“aren’t as amenable” to the migratory nature of pollinating large-scale farms.

Another option, says wildlife biologist Sam Droege of the U.S. Geological

Survey, which is to embrace the thousands of North American wild bee species,

which are excellent pollinators, rarely sting, and are typically the size of a grain of

rice. The drawback for some people is that none of the wild bee species produce

honey. But, says Droege, “we can always get honey from other countries.”

Text C

这篇像肖秀荣的书里翻译过来的 2333，讲的是中国科技、经济飞快进步，提到了中国的四大发明和新

四大发明，中国给其他国家提供援助，中国的各种改革给其他国家提供了借鉴和参考，可以启示他们寻找一条适合自己国家实际情况的道路。

一共 5 个小题，文章不难理解，但是有两题在我们考研群里争议较大，

其一是：大意是中国的发展成果 contributes to ____ effort.

A. top-down B. bottom-up C. collective D. individual

其二是：中国在那些方面可以给其他国家提供借鉴：争议在 C 和 D。

C: technological, economic, financial, institutional

D: technological, economic, financial, cultural（文中没涉及到文化方面的内容）

Text D

这篇可能没什么难度吧，所以好像什么也记不住了……

阅读整体很好理解，生词特别少，但是有几个题感觉挖了坑，比如第三篇，虽然内容感觉很熟悉很亲

切，但是题目和文章联系不是特别明显，加上政治正确选项以及自己的主观印象太强，反而没有另外几篇

好选。

个人总结阅读答题方法：先看选项题目，然后看文章，边看边选，保证速度很快，而且一遍基本上就

选出来了，不确定的再回头找答案。每道题的顺序基本上就是在文章中出现的顺序。

水平测试改错变成了一篇20个错，40分，感觉改错一直都不太好改，文章不难，个人觉得还是不好改，能力有限吧，形近词辨析也变成了20题，40分，今年的还好，要变形，选对词变形错误有1分，也有一部分不用变形的。阅读从六篇改成了四篇，文章比较长，第一篇是跟语言学有关的，还有一篇经济相关的，一篇说书拍成电影什么的，书和拍出来的影片是有差别的，作者是站在写书的角度谈的~~~还有一篇忘记了

先说说gapfilling这题吧，20题40分，有几道还是有点难度的。首先第一个intelligence literature 后面两个是什么了？忘了，题目的意思是说“上海有高的教育水平吧，几乎99%的人都……”反正我选的是intelligence然后变成intellectual（知识分子）不知对不对？我也不太确定，接下来还有depreciate  demour deluge等等，还有个a whole array of……有个legitimate变成反义词，接下来的忘了。接下来是改错，20个题，说不上简单不太好改，总体有generally改成general(in general),his改成her ,another 改成other,还有……又忘了，接下来完型，讲女性的地位越来越重要了，女性的特点，单词有muting、hutersexual、exceed，其他那些感觉不难但一到文章里完全不懂了。四篇阅读，前面第一篇还是可以接受的，有一篇讲中国的经济发展为社会做出的贡献，剩下的忘了。

这个是我去年特别担心的一块。首先说单词，我背了很多本词汇书，推荐星火的词根词缀专八，华研专八词汇，如鱼得水专八词这个三本。第一本解决词根问题，第二本解决同义词问题，第三本用来自己一个一个用有道词把相应的词根派生和转类的情况查清楚。有三遍从不同的角度来认知，不断的强化，效果就会有所不同，也能应对广外对同义词和同根词的考察。今年的cloze我觉得好难，按照我以前用catti的材料来训练的经验，完形填空，大概有三中可能：按照语法的完型，就是填写一些基本的连词代词之类，第二类是搭配的问题，第三类是我自己的帮它命名为命题式推理，第四类是复现。第一、二、四的难度不大，以往广外也很喜欢出，但第三类就不会那么容易。今年考了好几个词难的。例如muting这个词就不大容易了吧。至少我不大认知。改错这一块我也是特别纠结的，今年也错了好几个，其实我改了四本。但是感觉还是不够稳定，这个真的很头痛。建议多总结。阅读推荐用GRE的阅读方法，里面的方法真的是大大提高我对阅读的认知。如果你能仔细研究，相信你也会有很大的收获的。
