26、：12.50)Economics is the study of how societies with limited resources decide what to produce, how to produce and for whom to produce. What, how, and for whom to produce are problems all over the world because human wants are practically unlimited, but all societies have only limited quantities of re

27、sources that can be used to produce goods or services. A knowledge of basic economies is important for understanding both the problems and opportunities that will face the world economy in the 21st century. As a student of economics, one will have the chance to discover how commerce, government poli

28、cies, and day-to-day decisions made by consumers affect his living standards. The study of economics can help him understand the influence of such events as the move to free markets in Poland and Russia, or of ups and downs in interest rate and the foreign exchange rate. Economics is influenced by d

29、evelopments in the many different areas of business, politics, science, nature, religion and history. And whether or not one is aware of it, economics is an important part of his life. From a practical point of view, one“s study of economics will help improve his decision-making skills. He learns a

30、logical way to compare different courses of action. As he studies the concept of opportunity cost, for instance, he will discover that every choice he makes has both a benefit and a cost. Suppose someone decides to get a part time job so he can earn enough money to buy a car. He will have the benefi

31、t of owning the car, but he will pay a cost in terms of the leisure hours he gives up for working so as to pay for the car and keep it in good condition. After weighing his choice in cost benefit terms, he may decide he does not need a car any more.（分数：12.50）(1).According to the passage, economics i

35、f time.(5).What is the central topic of the second paragraph?（分数：2.50）A.Influences of economics.B.Importance of knowing economics.C.Applications of economics.D.Scope of economic studies.五、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：12.50)On-the-job smoking is a hot issue for both smokers and non-smokers, and many manage

36、rs now see smoking as a productivity(生产力) problem. Although some people question whether smoking really affects one“s productivity, it has, in fact, been proven that a smoker costs a company more than a non-smoker. According to Professor William Weis, a smoking employee costs his or her employer abo

37、ut $5,700 more a year than a never-smoker. These costs include medical care, lost earnings and insurance. And absence due to smoking breaks is one of the productivity problems, yet it accounts for a great deal of employer costs. When the issue of smoking at the workplace is discussed, perhaps the mo

38、st important problem is the health risk that smoking causes to both smokers and never-smokers. It has long been proven that smoking is linked to lung cancer. Now many health experts warn that passive smoking can cause lung cancer and other illnesses in healthy never-smokers. Passive smoking can be d

39、efined as exposure to secondhand tobacco smoke in enclosed areas. Anyone who has been with smokers indeed knows that their smoke can cause eye irritation (刺激), coughing, headaches and throat soreness. While eye irritation may seem a small thing to some smokers, it nevertheless is a problem that occu

40、rs every workday in offices and break rooms and can lead to greater health problems. Employees who do not smoke should not be subjected (遭受) to the risks of passive smoking and need to be able to work in a safe environment. Surgeon General Koop states that the right of the smoker stops at the point

41、where his or her smoking increases the disease risk of those occupying the same environment.（分数：12.50）(1).All the following cases are on-the-job smoking except that _.（分数：2.50）A.an employer smokes while working in the officeB.a taxi driver smokes while driving the carC.a worker smokes while working

42、in the workshopD.a worker smokes while reading in the train(2).According to the passage, on-the-job smoking affects an employee“s performance in the office in that _.（分数：2.50）A.he can“t concentrate on what he is doing while smokingB.he often goes away from his desk to smoke in the break-roomC.he oft

43、en asks for sick leave as a result of too much smokingD.he takes a rest from time to time because of eye irritation(3).Many managers do not seem to be in favor of on-the-job smoking mainly because it _.（分数：2.50）A.reduces productivity of the company to a certain degreeB.does harm to the health of nev

44、er-smokers of the companyC.affects the relationship between smokers and non-smokersD.makes the break-rooms more crowded and more polluted(4).Passive smoking means _.（分数：2.50）A.never-smokers take up the habit of smoking unwillinglyB.never-smokers have to put up with the active smokersC.never-smokers

45、take in smoke released by a lit cigaretteD.never-smokers share an enclosed area with smokers(5).In the second part of the passage, the author suggests banning(禁止) on-the-job smoking so as to _.（分数：2.50）A.cut down costs of medical care and insuranceB.create a healthy and safe working environmentC.pre

46、vent eye irritation from becoming a big health problemD.improve the smoking employees work efficiency六、Passage Four(总题数：1，分数：12.50)Television has changed the life style of people in every industrialized country in the world. In the United States, where sociologists have studied the effects, some int

47、eresting observations have been made. Television, although not essential, has become an important part of most people“s lives. It alters people“s ways of seeing the world; in many ways, it supports and sustains modern life. Television has become a baby-sitter, an introducer of conversations, the maj

48、or transmitter of culture, a keeper of tradition. Yet when what can be seen on TV in one day is critically analyzed, it becomes evident that television is not a teacher but a sustainer: the poor quality of programming does not elevate (提高) people into greater understanding, but rather maintains and

49、encourages the life as it exists. The primary reason for the lack of quality in American television is related to both the history of TV programming development and the economics of TV. Television in America began with the radio. Radio companies and their sponsors first experimented with television. Therefore, the close relati
