27、orts on the disease across the country, and in- creased production of bird flu vaccines.Among the Asian countries and regions affected by bird flu in animals, only Vietnam and Thai- land have reported human cases. The people infected were reported to have caught the disease from poultry. While the W

The schools, as well as the mountain itself, are named after Martha Berry herself, a daughter of a Georgian mountaineer. Martha Berry was born in 1866. L
36、uckier than most Georgian mountain children, she received an education. But she never forgot other children of the mountains whose parents couldn t afford to spend them to school. In 1902 Martha Berry started a school for these children. It was housed in a single small log cabin and was attended by
37、only five pupils. Now, eighty years later, there are a score of Berry Schools in the area, with a total of over one thousand students and a waiting list of about five thousand.Martha Berry in her later years received many medals and honors for what she had done for the poor mountain children of Geor
38、gia, and in 1931 she was named one of the twelve most important women in the United States.

41、eceived many medals and honorsD. she had never stopped working till her death（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.CThe relationship between the home and market economies has gone through two distinct stages. Early industrialization began the process of transferring some production processes (eg. cloth making, sewing an
42、d caning foods) from the home to the marketplace. Though the home economy could still produce these goods, the processes were laborious(费力的)and the market economy was usually more efficient. Soon, the more important second stage was evident - the marketplace began producing goods and services that h
43、ad never been produced by he home economy, and the home economy was unable to produce them ( eg. electricity and electrical appliances, the automobile, advanced education, sophisticated medical care). In the second stage, the question of whether the home economy was less efficient in producing these
44、 new goods and services was irrelevant; if the family were to enjoy these result of industrialization, they would have to be got in the marketplace. The traditional ways of taking care of these needs in the home, such as in nursing the sick, became socially unacceptable ( and, in most serious cases,
45、 maybe less successful). Just as the appearance of the automobile made the use of horse -drawn carriage illegal and then impractical, and the television changed the radio from a source of entertainment to a source of background music, so most of the fruits of economic growth did not increase the opt
46、ions available to the home economy to either produce the goods or services or purchase them in the market. Growth brought with it increased variety in consumer goods, but not in creased flexibility, for the home economy in obtaining these goods and services. Instead, economic growth brought with it
47、increased consumer reliance on the marketplace. In order to consume these new goods and services, the family had to enter the marketplace as wage earners and consumers. The neoclassical(新古典主义的)model that views the family as deciding whether to produce goods and services directly or to purchase them
48、in the marketplace is basically a model of the first stage. It cannot .accurately be applied to the second( and current) stage.（分数：3.00）(1).The reason why many production processes were taken over by the marketplace was that _.A. it was a necessary step in the process of industrializationB. they dep
49、ended on electricity available only to the market economyC. it was troublesome to produce such goods in the homeD. the marketplace was more efficient with respect to these processes（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).It can be seen from the passage that in the second stage _.A. some traditional goods and services were not successful when provided by the home economyB. the market economy provided new goods and services never produced by the home economyC. pro
