第2题

Henry Ford, the famous U.S. inventor and car manufacturer, once said, "The business of Ame
rica is business." By this he meant that the U.S. way of life is based on the values of the business world.

Few would argue with Ford's statement. A brief glimpse at a daffy newspaper vividly shows how much people in the United States think about business. For example, nearly every newspaper has a business section, in which the deals and projects, finances and management, stock prices and labor problems of corporations are reported daily. In addition, business news can appear in every other section. Most national news has an important financial aspect to it. Welfare, foreign aid, the federal budget, and the policies of the Federal Reserve Bank are all heavily affected by business. Moreover, business news appears in some of the unlikeliest places. The world of arts and entertainment is often referred to as "the entertainment industry" or "show business".

The positive side of Henry Ford's statement can be seen in the prosperity that business has brought to U.S. life. One of the most important reasons so many people from all over the world come to live in the United States is the dream of a better job. Jobs are produced in abundance because the U.S. economic system is driven by competition. People believe that this system creates more wealth, more jobs, and a materially better way of life.

The negative side of Henry Ford's statement, however, can be seen when the word business is taken to mean big business. And the term big business—referring to the biggest companies—is seen in opposition to labor. Throughout U.S. history working people have had to fight hard for higher wages, better working conditions, and the fight to form. unions. Today, many of the old labor disputes are over, but there is still some employee anxiety. Downsizing—the driving away of thousands of workers to keep expenses low and profits high—creates

feelings of insecurity for many.

The United States is a country ______ .

A.which encourages free trade at home and abroad

B.where people's chief concern is how to make money

C.where all businesses are managed scientifically

D.which normally works according to the federal budget

PassageFive AustraliaisnearlyaslargeastheUnitedStates,butmostofitistoodryforpeopletolivei

Passage Five

Australia is nearly as large as the United States, but most of it is too dry for people to live in. Around

this dry part are large sheep and cow farms. A few of them are as large as the smallest states: of America.

Often the nearest neighbours are several hundred kilometers away.

The two-way radio is very important to people who live on these great Australian farms. It works much like a

telephone. A person can listen to someone else talk and then gives an answer. For example, people on

the large farms could talk to a doctor far away. They could tell the doctor about someone who was ill,

and the doctor could let them know how to look after the sick person.

As the large farms were so far from towns, the children could not go to school. Radio schools were

started for them in some places. At a certain time each day, boys and girls turn on their radios and

listen to teachers in cities far away.

Families on the large farms wanted to give news to their neighbours. The programme Round Robin

Talks by radio was started to keep families in touch with each other. They could talk about who was

going away and who was iii. The men could talk about their sheep and cows and how much money

the markets would pay for them. In many ways the radio became a newspaper for the farm people of Australia.

52. In the passage "the two-way radio" is______.

A. important to Americans

B. useful for children only

C. used as a telephone

D. only used by doctors

第6题

在美国的货币联盟中,如果一个州的经常账户出现巨额赤字,我们似吓从来不会担心。你曾经在报纸上
看到过这样的数据吗?例如,人们可能会猜测在2005年卡特里娜飓风袭击了路易斯安那州之后,该州会经济巨额的经常账户赤字。但是有关该州的经常账户赤字并不值得财经杂志去报道。然而,我们却知道,2006年希腊的经常账户赤字占GDP的9.6%,葡萄牙占9.4%,西班牙占8.8%。这些国家应该担心自己的巨额赤字吗?

In the United States' currency union, we seem never to worry if a state has a big current account deficit Have you ever seen such data in the newspaper? Can you even find the data in any U.S. government statistical sources? For example,one would guess that the state of Louisiana ran large current account deficits after it was devastated by Hurricane Katrina in 2005. But Louisiana's possible current account deficit was not deemed worthy of coverage by the financial press. We do know,however, that in 2006,Greece had a current account deficit of 9.6 percent of GDP,Portugal had a deficit of 9.4 percent of GDP,and Spain had a deficit of 8.8 percent of GDP. Should the governments of these countries worry about such large deficits?

第7题

The mental health movement in the United States began with a period of considerable enligh
tenment. Dorothea Dix was shocked to find the mentally iii in jails and almshouses and crusaded for the establishment of asylums in which people could receive humane care in hospital-like environments and treatment, which might help restore them to sanity. By the mid-1800s, 20 states had established asylums, but during the late 1800s and early 1900s, in the face of economic depression, legislatures were unable to appropriate sufficient funds for decent care. Asylums became overcrowded and prisonlike. Additionally, patients were more resistant to treatment than the pioneers in the mental health field had anticipated, and security and restraint were needed to protect patients and others. Mental institutions became frightening and depressing places in which the rights of patients were all but forgotten.

These conditions continued until after Word War Ⅱ. At that time, new treatments were discovered for some major mental illnesses therefore considered untreatable (penicillin for syphilis of the brain and insulin treatment for schizophrenia and depressions), and a succession of books, motion pictures, and newspaper exposes called attention to the plight of the mentally ill. Improvements were made, and Dr. David Vail's. Humane practices program is a beacon for today. But changes were slow in coming until the early 1960s. At that time, the Civil Rights Movement led lawyers to investigate America's prisons, which were disproportionately populated by blacks, and they in turn followed prisoners into the only institutions that were worse than the prisons——the hospitals for the criminally insane. The prisons were rifled with angry young men who, encouraged by legal support, were quick to demand their fights. The hospitals for the criminally insane, by contrast, were populated with people who were considered "crazy" and who were often kept obediently in their place through the use of severe bodily restraints and large doses of major tranquilizers. The young cadre of public interest lawyers liked their role in the mental hospitals. The lawyers found a population that was both passive and easy to champion. These were, after all, people who, unlike criminals, had done nothing wrong. And in many states they were being kept in horrendous institutions, an injustice which, once exposed was bound to shock the public and, particularly, the judicial conscience.

Judicial interventions have had some definite positive effects, but there is growing awareness that courts cannot provide the standards and the review mechanisms that assure good patient care. The details of providing day-to-day care simple cannot be mandated by a court so it is time to take from the courts the responsibility for delivery of mental health care and assurance of patient fights and return it to the state mental health administrators to whom the mandate was originally given. Though it is a difficult task, administrators must undertake to write roles and standards and to provide the training and surveillance to assure that treatment is given and patients' rights are respected.

The main purpose of the passage is to ______.

A.discuss the influence of Dorothea Dix on the mental health movement

B.shock the reader with vivid descriptions of asylums

C.increase public awareness of the plight of the mentally ill

D.provide a historical perspective on problems of mental health care
