1、2023年宁夏考研英语考试模拟卷（5） 本卷共分为1大题50小题，作答时间为180分钟，总分100分，60分及格。 一、单项选择题（共50题，每题2分。每题的备选项中，只有一个最符合题意） 1.Text 4In applying the Optimum Currency Area (OCA) framework, the consensus that East Asia presents as good a candidate for monetary integration as Europe is generally arrived at.

2、However, it can be observed that OCA framework had only an insignificant part to play in the decision to pass the Europe Monetary Union (EMU), it tends to be overshadowed by political sentiments. Thus, the central question on the possibility of an Asian Monetary Union lies not in its satisfaction of

3、 the OCA criteria, but whether the political resolve to achieve such a union is existent.Unfortunately, it appears that the political climate of East Asia is not favorable towards such a union at present, and is unlikely to undergo much positive alteration in the near future. Thus the manifestation

4、of an Asian Monetary Union is unlikely in the foreseeable future, as the political resolve to bring this about is evidently lacking.However, to dismiss outright the possibility of creation of an East Asian monetary union would be presumptuous. Even though the political climate in East Asia does not

5、appear to be ready for such an undertaking as yet, it cannot be denied that integrative and cooperative initiatives have indeed made much positive progress. Although the state of pan-Asian institutions is nowhere comparable with needed to engineer the EMU, however East Asia is taking definite steps

6、towards regional cooperation.Thus, it would be hasty to simply write off the prospects of such a union. The road to East Asia may be long and fraught with obstacles, but it is not impossible. Only with visionary leadership, which looks beyond regional political sensitivities and rivalries, to recogn

7、ize the economic imperative and promise of such a monetary union, can it have hopes of materialization. East Asian leaders, unwilling to undertake monetary unification due to fears of the loss of political sovereignty which it would entail should be more farsighted and recognize that in the present

8、age, sovereignty is no longer absolute as globalization accelerates and increasingly blurs the lines of national boundaries. Sovereignty is not completely lost as nations will still be able to influence decision-making through the union, but as one voice amongst all other members. Furthermore, misgi

9、vings about the prospects of Asian monetary unification based on the grounds that East Asian nations are at very different stages of economic development with diverse structure of economy should look towards the monetary union between Singapore and Brunei, which has endured despite its members&rsquo

10、; vast dissimilarity. Thus, current economic disparities should not prove insurmountable to an East Asian monetary union, provided regulatory and fiscal reforms critical to sound and sustainable economic growth are developed alongside monetary unification.In the previous section, a proposal which su

11、ggests gradual steps towards Asian monetary unification is mapped out, by first achieving smaller monetary unions instead of an Asian-wide monetary union. In this way, the vast economic disparity across Asia is breached gradually, as opposed to tackling it in its entirety, with the ultimate aim of a

The era in which he lived, Elizabethan England, was a time in which broad interests and creativity could flourish. Elizabeth, the queen, was beloved by her subjects and proved to b

60、e a powerful and able ruler. Under the reign of Elizabeth, England changed from an island kingdom to an expanding empire. England grew rich through trade. Sixteenth-century Englishmen traveled to the New World and to Africa. Music, dance, poetry, painting, and architecture flourished; but the art fo

61、rm in which Elizabethan England distinguished the rest of Europe was the theater.The theater, which had practically disappeared from Europe was, at this time, received as a part of the church service. Later, no longer as a part of the service, the mystery plays responded to popular taste by adding m

62、ore and more comic elements. In England, they were sponsored by various trade guilds and presented on stage wagons that went from place to place. When the mystery plays began to lose their appeal, they were replaced by morality plays which always taught a moral.In Renaissance England, writers were p

Shakespeare was well acquainted with classical humanities and classical tragedies and comedies often served as models in his own d

65、he change by staging new plays. Professional actors, who had been viewed by English society as little better than vagrants or criminals, gradually came under the protection of the nobility. Licensed theater companies were formed; Shakespeare belonged to one of those, where in addition to his writing

66、, he acquired a wide experience in acting and theater management.The theater grew in popularity and public theaters were built, not inside the city limits but just outside, along with other places of entertainment. Theaters in Elizabethan England were patronized by all social classes. The Globe Theater, built in 1599, where many of Shakespeare’s plays were performed, had a platform stage jutting out into a central courtyard. The audience stay around three sides of this platform the lower-c
