[单项选择]People from many countries find it difficult to understand how the majority of Americans live comfortable lives without the support of a public welfare system. Medical care in the United States is expensive; university education can cost $20,000 per year; living well after a worker retires requires more money than will be paid through the Social Security System. Most Americans prepare for those needs by saving a part of their salaries in saving banks; others invest in industries or service corporations in hopes of receiving greater profits. Most Americans also buy insurance of many kinds. In buying insurance, a working person agrees to pay a set sum of money every month or at other regular intervals. In exchange, he or she receives money when needed. Life insurance guarantees a sum of money to survivors of the person in case of death. Medical and hospital insurance guarantees payment of large medical and hospital bills. There is also dental insurance and insurance that pays money when

[填空题]Hugh Pendy:
We are facing a serious energy crisis. All known reserves of coal, oil and gas will be exhausted within ten years. It is urgent and imperative that we develop new sources of energy immediately. Nuclear power is the answer to our problems. If we don’t build nuclear power stations now, our civilization will collapse. The Government has decided to build a nuclear power station to solve the energy problem we are facing. I am for this wise decision.
Maureen Preston:
We can’t allow this power station to be built. It would cause terrible damage to the environment and all living creatures in the district would be in great danger. A small leak would cause a disaster. It’s our duty as responsible citizens to force the Government to abandon their unclear energy program. I used to believe nuclear power station were safe. But last month I read a newspaper report that there were at least five major leaks in the last two years in other stations. In each case

[单项选择]Every time we open our mouths and speak we label ourselves — I am English, you may be Bulgarian or African. We are all human beings, but sometimes we have communication problems which can lead to suspicion and misunderstanding.
If you speak English, you have an advantage. The English language means power and freedom to many. It dominates international relations. It affects nearly all our lives in one way or another, influencing everything from pop music to diplomatic relations. Yet only around 10% of the world’s population are native English language speakers. Many of you who are reading now will have struggled to learn the grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation of this very complicated language. But there could be another solution: learning Esperanto.
Esperanto, meaning "one who hopes", is an artificial language which is said to be the earliest in the world to learn. It was invented in 1887 by Ludwig Zamnehof, a young Polish optician.
The usefulness of Esperanto ha
A. Esperanto — An artificial Language.
B. Esperanto — A Language for All.
C. A Language Expressing People’s Dream.
D. A Language Resulting From a Nice Thought.

[单项选择]The speaker, a teacher from a community college, addressed a sympathetic audience. Heads nodded, in agreement when he said, "High school English teachers are not doing their jobs." He described the inadequacies of his students, all high school graduates who can use language only at a grade 9 level. I was unable to determine from his answers to my questions how his grade 9 level had been established.
My topic is not standards nor its decline. What the speaker was really (26) is that he is no longer young; he has been (27) for sixteen years, and is able to think and speak like a mature adult.
My (28) is that the frequent complaint of one generation about the one immediately following (29) is inevitable. It is also human nature to look for the reasons (30) our dissatisfaction. Before English became a school subject in the late nineteenth century, it was difficult to find the target of the blame for language (31)
A. saying
B. speaking
C. uttering
D. singing

[单项选择]Are some people born clever, and others born stupid Or is intelligence developed by our environment and our experience Strangely enough, the answer to these questions is yes. To some extent our intelligence is given us at birth, and no amount of special education can make a genius out of a child born with low intelligence. On the other hand, a child who lives in a boring environment will develop his intelligence less than one who lives in rich and varied surroundings. Thus the limits of a person’s intelligence are fixed at birth, but whether or not he reaches those limits will depend on his environment. This view, now held by most experts, can be supported in a number of ways.
It is easy to show that intelligence is to some extent something we are born with. The closer the blood relationship between two people, the closer they are likely to be in intelligence. Thus if we take two unrelated people at random from the population, it is likely that their degree of intelligence wil
A. never become a genius
B. exceed his intelligence limit in good surroundings
C. still become a genius if he should be given special education
D. not reach his intelligence limit in his life
