Last year, the value of their currencies dropped rapidly, after investors
25、 decided that their economic policies were not strong enough; now the region is suffering slower growth, lower living standards and rising unemployment.The situation in Asia shows how power has shifted from individual governments to the markets. In theory, governments are free to set their own econo
26、mic policies; in practice, they must conform to a global economic model or risk being penalized by the markets.Adjusting to this new “economic order“ is proving difficult, in the developed world, and in particular the European Union, globalization is facing widespread public resistance. Critics comp
27、lain that, without the protection of trade barriers, jobs are being lost to workers in poorer countries, and wages for employees in rich countries are falling. Opponents in the European Union point to the effects that globalization has had in the U.S. and Britain. In those countries, wages are stagn
28、ant-except for a few privileged-and taxes and welfare benefits have been reduced to help companies compete with industries in the developing world.Those in favor of globalization accuse their critics of being shortsighted protectionists. They claim that a more integrated global economy will ultimate
29、ly benefit everyone because it will enable countries to specialize in those areas where they perform best. Developing countries, with their higher populations and lower wages, will concentrate on labor-intensive industries. The richer countries, on the other hand, will diversify into high-tech indus
30、tries, where high productivity and specialist knowledge are paramount. The effect of this will be to improve productivity in all countries, leading to higher living standards. The free movement of capital will also help poorer countries develop so that they can play a full and active role in the wor
31、ld economy.But how close are we to a truly global economy? For those in favor of globalization, probably too close. But in terms of real economic integration, there are still many problems to be solved. A global economy would mean complete freedom of movement of goods and services, capital, and labo
32、r. Yet, even ignoring the tariffs and other restrictions still in place, cross-border trade remains tiny as compared with the volume of goods and services traded within countries; foreign investment is also extremely small, amounting to little more than five percent of the developed worlds domestic
33、investments.But what is really holding globalization back is the lack of labor mobility. Labor markets remain overwhelmingly national, even in areas like the European Union, where citizens can live and work in any EU country. The main reasons for this are language and cultural barriers; the lack of
34、internationally recognized qualifications; and, in some cases, strict immigration controls.(分数:10.00)(1).The main reason why some Asian countries are suffering from economic depression is that they _. A. doubt that global financial markets will control national economies B. fail to follow a global e
35、conomic model adequately C. have set their own free economic policies D. have their power interfere with the markets(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(2).The main opposition to globalization is that _. A. taxes and welfare in the developed countries are reduced without protection of trade barriers B. there are too g
36、reat economic differences between rich and poor countries C. globalization is beneficial to the developing countries only D. high productivity and specialist knowledge are not suitable to labor-intensive industries(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(3).What does the sentence “wages are stagnant“ (Paragraph 3) most pr
37、obably mean? A. Wages stop rising. B. Wages are so high that there is no need to rise. C. There is a pause in wages, but they will soon rise. D. Wages begin to fall.(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(4).The word “paramount“ (Paragraph 4) may be replaced by _. A. vital B. more important C. less important D. similar(分
38、数:2.00)A.B.C.D.(5).The author suggests in the passage that in order to realize a truly global economy, great efforts should be made in all the following aspects EXCEPT _. A. elimination of language and cultural barriers B. permission of free labor mobility C. increase in the volume of goods and serv
39、ices traded beyond border D. reduction of tariffs and loosening of other restrictions(分数:2.00)A.B.C.D.五、BPassage Two/B(总题数:1,分数:10.00)The component of the healthy personality that is the first to develop is the sense of the trust. The crucial time for its emergence is the first year of life. As with
40、 other personality components, the sense of trust is not something that develops independent of other manifestations of growth. It is not that infants learn how to use their bodies for purposeful movement, learn to recognize people and objects around them, and also develop a sense of trust. Rather,
41、the concept “sense of trust“ is a shortcut expression intended to convey the characteristic flavor of all the childs satisfying experiences at this early age. Or, to say it another way, this psychological formulation serves to condense, summarize, and synthesize the most important underlying changes
42、, which give meaning to the infants concrete and diversified experience.Trust can exist only in relation to something. Consequently, a sense of trust cannot develop until infants are old enough to be aware of objects and persons and to have some feeling that they are separate individuals. At about 3
43、 months of age, babies are likely to smile, if somebody comes close and talks to them. This shows that they are aware of the approach of the other person, that pleasurable sensations are aroused. If, however, the person moves too quickly or speaks too sharply, these babies may look and cry. They wil
44、l not “trust“ the unusual situation but will have a feeling of uneasiness, of mistrust, instead.Experience connected with feeding are a prime source for the development of trust. At around 4 months of age, a hungry baby will grow quiet and show signs of pleasure at the sound of an approaching footst
45、ep, anticipating (trusting) that he or she will be held and fed. This repeated experience of being hungry, seeing food, receiving food, and feeling relieved and comforted assures the baby that the world is a dependable place.Later experiences, starting at around 5 months of age, add another dimensio
46、n to the sense of trust. Though endless repetitions of attempts to grasp for and hold objects, most babies are finally successful in controlling and adapting their movements in such a way as to reach their goal. Through these and other feats of muscular coordination, babies are gradually able to tru
47、st their own bodies to do their bidding.Studies of mentally-ill individuals and observations of infants who have been grossly deprived of affection suggest that trust is an early-formed and important element in the healthy personality. Psychiatrists find again and again that the most serious illnesses occur in patients who have been sorely neglected or abused or otherwise deprived of
