第2题

Education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate children

only for the purpose of educating them; our purpose is to prepare them for life. As soon as we realize this fact, we will understand that it is very important to choose a system of education which will really prepare children for life. It is not enough just to choose the first system of education one finds, or to continue with one's old system of enducation without examining it to see whether it is in fact suitable or not.

In many modem countries it has for some time been fashionable to think that, by free education for all-whether rich or poor, clever or stupid--one can solve all the problems of society and build a perfect nation. But we can already see that free education for all is not enough; we find in such countries a far larger number of people with university degrees than there are jobs for them to fill. Because of their degrees, they refuse to do what they consider" low" work; and, in fact, work with the hands is thought to be dirty and shameful in such countries.

But we have only to think a moment to understand that the work of a completely uneducated farmer is far more important than that of a professor, We can live without education, but we die if we have no food. If no one cleaned our streets and took the rubbish away from our houses, we would have terrible diseases in our towns. In countries where there are no servants because everyone is ashamed to do such work, scientists have to waste much of their time doing housework.

In fact, when we say that all of us must be educated to prepare for life, it means that we must be educated in such a way that, firstly, each of us can do whatever job is suited to his brain and ability and, secondly, that we can realize that all jobs are necessary to society, and it is very bad to be ashamed of one's work, or to scorn someone else's. Only such a type of education can be called valuable to society.

Education is ______.

A．a means

B．a purpose

C．fashionable

D．the first system

It would be difficult to have a society like ours without public goods such as defense, tr

ansportation, and other services.

A public good is one that a person can use without reducing the use of it for another person. One of the best example of a public good is national defense. One person can benefit form. our national defense without reducing another person's benefits. In fact, it is difficult to keep any person in our society from enjoying the benefits of national defense.

The market system does not work well in producing public goods. This is because a person who refuses to pay for a public good cannot be kept from using it. Suppose that the neighbors in a high crime area decide to hire a police force. Each neighbor, except Mrs. Smith, agrees to pay $100 a year for it. Mrs. Smith refuses to pay because she knows that if all the others pay the $100, the police will guard the area anyway. So Mrs. Smith can enjoy the services of the police force without paying $100.

The market system has no way to deal with this type of problem. For this reason, we cannot ask each person to make a direct payment in the form. of product price. Therefore, we collect money for public goods by using taxes.

According to the passage, public goods are______.

A．services enjoyed by all people

B．what we can buy and sell in public

C．products that we make for national defense

D．taxes paid by the people involved

In the seventeenth century, European soldiers who came across some Indian groups in the we

stern Great Lakes found that several native tribes were living in the area without a formal leadership system. They appeared to be "quite friendly with each other without a formal authority!"

Not only did the Indians appear to lack a formal system of authority, but they also deeply hated any efforts to control their actions. All members of the tribes knew what was required of them by lifelong familiarity with the tasks of the area. These tasks tended to be simple, since the Indian's rate of social change was slow. Thus, although subgroups such as soldiers had recognized leaders, no real authority was required. Rather than giving direct orders (which were considered rough), members of the tribes would arouse others to action by examples.

It would be difficult, if not impossible, to carry out such a system in our own society. Most of us have grown up under one authority or another for as long as we can remember. Our parents, our teachers, our bosses, our government all have the recognized right under certain conditions to tell us what to do. The authority is so much a part of our culture that it is hard for us to imagine a workable society without it. We have been used to relying on authority to get things done and would probably be uncomfortable with the Indian methods of examples on a large scale.

Of course, the major reason why the Indian system would not be suitable for us is that our society is too large. The number of tasks that various members of our society have to perform. often under tight time and resource limitations could not be treated by the Indian system. In modern societies, the formal authority system is necessary to achieve any social objectives.

Which of the following statements is correct according to the passage？

A．From 1710 to 1780, European soldiers came across some Indian groups in the western Great Lakes.

B．European soldiers were quite friendly to the Indian groups.

C．The Indian groups had no leaders.

D．The Indian groups were friendly to each other without a formal leadership system.

Once upon a time （not so very long ago, either!) industrial goods were made to last foreve

Once upon a time (not so very long ago, either!) industrial goods were made to last forever. If you bought a ear or a stove, it was a once-in-a-lifetime investment(投资). You paid good money for it, and you took care of it. Nowadays industry has persuaded us that products shouldn't last a long time. It's cheaper to throw them away than it is to repair them. This has led directly to the "throw-away society" which is a tremendous waste of the earth's resources.

Just think of the cars that are traded in daily, just because they are out of style. Think of the expensive packaging material that is thrown away every time a new object is bought. And we consumers have to pay for that material! Our industrial society has turned us into spoiled children. This wastefulness has got ten us into the mess (困境) we are in now. When we have no resources left, then we'll start to take care of what we have. But why can't we act before this happens？ Why can't we go back to being a society in which the prevention of waste is a virtue？

Products used to be made to last ______.

A．for at least five years

B．for ten years

C．for as long as you take good care of them

D．for your whole life

At first sight, the fate of threatened species might seem a world apart from the economy

. Upon closer examination, however, we start to understand the connections between the two. The “good health” of natural systems is a precondition for the “good health” of our social and economic systems. Can one say that a society is thriving when it is exposed to air and water pollution and endures related health problems？ Equally, can a society “function” if a large proportion of people are unemployed or cannot make ends meet？

Despite gaps and uncertainties in our understanding, we can see that our world is changing. After 10,000 years of relative stability, the average global temperature is increasing. Although the European Union’s (EU’s) greenhouse gas emissions are declining, fossil fuels release more greenhouse gases into the atmosphere than our land and oceans can absorb. Some regions are more vulnerable to the potential impacts of climate change – and t

1Though different understandings exist, one thing people all recognize is that __________.

A、more greenhouse gases are emitted than our land can absorb

B、the world we are living in is different from what it was before

C、some countries are too vulnerable to adapt to climate change

D、EU countries are producing less greenhouse gas emissions now

2Additional pressure on our natural systems can result from ___________.

A、the change of lifestyles of people in the developed countries

B、the accelerated extinction rates of plant and animal species

C、the improvement of living standards in developing countries

D、the risk of turning our home into an unlivable place for us

3What is a main cause of global biodiversity loss？

A、The disappearance of natural habitats caused by human activities.

B、The increase of the average temperature in the world.

C、The release of excessive greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

D、The consumption and production patterns we follow today.

4Why are large areas of forests cut down every year according to the passage？

A、To provide wood for urban development.

B、To turn the land into other uses.

C、To grow grass for cattle to eat.

D、To grow crops to meet human demand.

5What point does the writer try to illustrate through the passage？

A、Our quality of life is declining due to environment change.

B、Damage to natural environment should be prevented.

C、Human beings should rethink their activities on earth.

D、Economy and natural systems are closely connected.

第8题

Nowadays, a standard for measuring power has changed. These changes foretell a new standar

d for measuring power. No longer will a nation's political influence be based solely on the strength of its military forces. Of course, military effectiveness will remain a primary measure of power. But political influence is also closely tied to industrial competitiveness. It's often said that without its military the Soviet Union would really be a third-world nation. The new standard of power and influence that is evolving now places more emphasis on the ability of a country to compete effectively in the economic markets of the world.

America must recognize this new course of events. Our success in shaping world events over the past 40 years has been the direct result of our ability to adapt technology and to take advantage of the capabilities of our people for the purpose of maintaining peace. Our industrial prowess(威力)over most of this period was unchallenged. It is ironic(有讽刺性的) that it is just this prowess that has enabled other countries to prosper and in turn to threaten our industrial leadership.

The competitiveness of America's industrial base is an issue bigger than the department of defense and is going to require the efforts of the major institutional forces in our society, government, industry, and education. That is not to say that the defense department will not be a strong force in the process. But we simply cannot be, nor should we be, looked upon by others as the savior(救星) of American industry.

Now a nation's political influence depends on______.

A．the strength of its military forces

B．its ability to compete in industry

C．economic markets

D．both A and B
