2、Continuing Education1 People around the world agree that education is not an end, but a means to an end. In other words, we do not educate students only forthe aim of educating them. Our purpose is to fit them forlife. Life is varied; so is education.2 Ideas about education are more specified in the United States. Education today is not just a high school diploma ora college degree. Many adults are not interested in going to college. They are interested in other kinds of learning. Forthem, learning does not end with a diploma.3 Continuing education gives these adults the opportunity to increase their knowledge about their own field orto learn about a new field. It also gives them a chance to improve their old skills orto learn new ones. Scientists, mechanics, secretaries, barbers and cooks can take classes to improve their work skills. If they know more orlearn more, they can get a better job orearn more money.4 Continuing education classes give more adults the chance to learn new skills. There is usually a large variety of classes to choose from: typing, foreign cooking, photography, auto repair, furniture repair, orswimming. There are only some of the classes available.5 Some adults take classes forfun orbecause the class will be useful forthem. Other adults take continuing education classes to improve their own lives because they want to feel better about themselves.6 Almost any community college orpublic school system has a continuing education program. There are classes in schools, community buildings orchurches. Most classes are in the evenings, so working people can attend. The classes are usually small, and they are inexpensive.Paragraph 3 ____【单选题】

3、African wild dogFinding a babysitter while you go out to work is, forexample, an inconvenience. Forthe African wild dog, one of the continent\'s most endangered carnivores (食肉动物), it\'s a matter of life and death. A new research shows that once packs (兽群) fall below a certain size, they are not enough animals to both hunt food and stay at home protecting the young.The African wild dog has declined drastically over the past century. Habitual loss (栖息地的丧失), persecution and unexplained outbreaks of disease have all been blamed. Only 3, 000 to5,000 animals remain, and the species is expected to go extinct within decades if the trend continues.Other large carnivores such as the spotted hyena (鬣狗) face similar pressures, yet are not declining. Now Franck Courchamp of Cambridge University has found a reason why. The dog\'s weakness lies in its social organization.Within each pack of up to 20 adults and pups, only the dominant male and female breed. The remaining animals help raise the pups, cooperating to hunt prey and defend the kill from other carnivores.Because pups can\'t keep up on a hunt, large packs leave an adult behind to protect them from predators (捕猎者), which include lions and hyenas. But leaving a babysitter also carries costs. A smaller hunting party is less able to tackle large prey and to defend the kill. There is also one less stomach in which to carry food back to the den, and one more mouth to feed when they get there.Courchamp investigated this awkward trade-off (权衡) by modeling how the costs of a babysitter change with decreasing pack size. This showed that packs of more than five adults should be able to feed all the pups and still spare a babysitter. But with smaller packs, either the hunting orthe babysitting suffers, orthe animals have to compensate by increasing the number of hunting excursions which itself carries a cost to the pack.Field observations in Zimbabwe supported the model. Packs of five animals orfewer left pups unguarded more frequently than larger packs did. There was also evidence that when they did leave a babysitter, they were forced to hunt more often.A pack which drops below a critical size becomes caught in a vicious circle (恶性循环), says Courchamp, who is now at Paris-Sud University. "Poorreproduction and low survival further reduces pack size, culminating in (最终造成) failure of the whole pack. " and deaths caused by human activity, says Courchamp, may be what reduce pack numbers to below the sustamable threshold. Mammal ecologist Chris Carbone at London\'s Institute of Zoology agrees. Maintaining the integrity of wild dog packs will be vitalin preserving the species, he says.The African wild dog has been endangered.【单选题】

4、Houses of the FutureWhat will houses be like after thirty years? No one really knows, but architects are trying to predict. What will our home be like then?Future houses will have to be flexible. some of us will be working from home.

5、Woman workThough some people have suggested that women should return to housework in orcerto leave more jobs formen, the idea has been rejected by both women and men in public opinion polls.Lately some unionofficials have suggested that too many women are employed in types of work more ____ formen and that women should step aside to make way forunemployed young men. They argue that women, especially women in their childbearing years,actually delay economic development and result in productivity, poorquality and inefficiency.To solve the problem, they suggested that working women stay at home while their husbands orbrothers were given double wages. They argue that under these circumstances, families would remain their same level of income, and women could run the house and raise children much better,The suggestion, however , has been flatly rejected by 9 0ut of 10 people polled .Some other people have suggested another way called "phased employment" theory. The theory suggests that a woman worker take leave from her job when she is seven months pregnant and stay off the job until her baby reaches the age of 3. It suggested that women on leave receive 75 percent of their normal salary and be allowed to return to work after the three-year period. This will benefit children, women, their families and the society and it definitely seems to be more acceptable than the suggestion that women return to their homes forever.【单选题】
A.available
B.suitable
C.reliable
D.practical
正确答案:B
答案解析:be suitable for:适合,符合上下文。available:可得到的、可利用的;reliable:可信赖的、信得过的;practical:实际的。
6、A Country\'s Standard of LivingThe "standard of living" of any country means the average person\'s share of the goods and services the country produces. A country\'s standard of living, therefore, depends first on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in this ____ is not money, forwe do not live on money but on things that money can buy: "goods such as food and clothing", and "services" such as transport and entertainment.A country\'s capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors most of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a country\'s natural resources. Some region of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have fertile (肥沃的) soil and a favorable climate, other regions possess none of them.Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use, China is perhaps as rich as the USA in natural resources, but suffered formany years from civil and external wars, Forthis and other reasons it was unable to develop her resources. Sound and stable political conditions, and freedom from foreign invasions, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, to produce more wealth than other country.A country\'s standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and consumed within its own borders, but also upon what is directly produced through international trade. Forexample, Britain\'s wealth in foodstuffs and other agricultural products would be much less if she had to depend only on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible forher surplus (剩余的) manufactured goods to be traded abroad forthe agricultural products which would otherwise be lacking. A country\'s wealth is, therefore, much influenced by its manufacturing capacity, providing that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.【单选题】
A.sense
B.article
C.side
D.area
正确答案:A
答案解析:本题有一定难度,干扰项干扰较大,本题考查介词短语in this sense,本句话是说,财富从这个意义上讲不是货币金钱,最佳答案是A。

8、How to Interview PeopleInterviewing (采访) is one of those skills that you can only get better at. You will never again feel so ill at ease when you try it forthe first time, and probably you\'ll never feel entirely comfortable trying to get from another person answers that he orshe may be too shy to reveal.______ The rest is instinct, which can all be learned with experience.The basic tools foran interview are paper and two orthree well-sharpened pencils. But keep your notebook orpaper out of sight until you need it. There\'s nothing less likely to relax a person than the arrival of someone with a note-taking pad. Both of you need time to get to know each other. Take a while just to chat, judging what sort of person you\'re dealing with, getting him orher to trust you.Never go into an interview without doing whatever homework you can. If you are interviewing a town official, know his voting record. If it\'s an actor, know what plays he has been in. You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance. Many beginning interviewers are afraid that they are forcing the other person to answer questions and have no right to inquire about his personal secrets. This fear is almost 103 percent unnecessary. Unless the person really hates being interviewed, he is delighted that somebody wants to interview him. Most men and women lead lives that are uninteresting, and they grasp any chance to talk to an outsider who seems eager to listen.This doesn\'t necessarily mean that it will go well. In general you will be talking to people who have never been interviewed before, and they will get used to the process awkwardly, perhaps not giving you anything that you can use. Come back another day; it will go better. You will both even begin to enjoy it-proof that you aren\'t forcing your victim to do something he doesn\'t really want to.【单选题】
A.Come back another day; it will go better.
B.But at least half of the skill is mechanical.
C.As one philosopher interviewed in the film notes, they lack irony.
D.You will not be liked if you inquire about facts that you could have learned in advance.
E.This fear is almost 100 percent unnecessary.
F.Both of you need time to get to know each other.
正确答案:B
答案解析:空格处后句的意思是:其余的就是直觉,可以从后天的经历中总结出来。所以空格处毫无疑问讲的是另外一种情况,所以B是正确答案。
9、The Beginning of American LiteratureAmerican has always been a land of beginnings. After Europeans "discovered" America in the fifteenth century, the mysterious New World became formany people a genuine hope of a new life, an escape from poverty and persecution, a chance to start again. We can say that, as nation, America begins with that hope. When, however, does American literature begin?American literature begins with American experiences. Long before the first colonists arrived, before Christopher Columbus, before the Northmen who "found" America about the year 1,000, Native Americans lived here. Each tribe\'s literature was tightly woven into the fabric of daily life and reflected the unmistakably American experience of lining with the land. Another kind of experience, one filled with fear and excitement, found its expression in the reports that Columbus and other explorers sent home in Spain, French and English. In addition, the journals of the people who lived and died in the New England wilderness tell unforgettable tales of hard and sometimes heartbreaking experiences of those early years.Experience, then, is the key to early American literature. The New World provided a great variety of experiences, and these experiences demanded a wide variety of expressions by an even wider variety of early American writers. These writers included John Smith, who spent only two-and-a-half years on the American continent. They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd, who thought of themselves as British subjects, never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own. American Indians, explorers, Puritan ministers, frontier wives, plantation owner-they are all the creators of the first American literature.According to the last paragraph, which of the following statements is true about American literature?【单选题】
A.Some British writers started American literature.
B.Early-day American literature is a reflection of the boring life then.
C.Some British writers had doubts about the future of American literature.
D.Some British writers had great confidence in the future of American literature.
正确答案:D
答案解析:本题答案的依据是下面这句话:They included Jonathan Edwards and William Byrd. who thought of themselves as British subjects, never suspecting a revolution that would create a United States of America with a literature of its own(这两位自认为是大英帝国臣民的英国作家对一场将会创造出一个拥有自己文学的美利坚合众国的革命从来没有任何怀疑。)
