The DINK couples are usually rega

26、rded as those who have higher educations and 【31】 careers with higher incomes. The increase in DINK families has shattered the Chinese traditional idea of the family and 【32】 typical. A survey conducted recently in Beijing by a market survey company 【33】 that about 33 percent of the 1,300 surveyed f

27、amilies in Beijing said they have 【34】 plans to have children. It is estimated there about 600,000 DINK families in large cities like Beijing, Tianjin, Shanghai, Shenzhen and Chongqing.

28、f population; some are indulged in building a more well-off family; some are showing sharp 【36】 to get themselves free from the obligation of raising children. 【37】 , most people still believe it is necessary to bear a child to keep the family line on. As an old Chinese saying goes: There are three

29、aspects in failing to be a filial son and the 【38】 serious one is to have no heir for the family. So, childless couples will suffer discrimination 【39】 family members and neighbors. But it is clear that the new tide of ideas has come, which suggests young people 【40】 to choose their own way of life.

32、reflected. To take the American higher education 【B2】 example, university classrooms share certain identical features though they 【B3】 from course to course in some aspects. Any student, 【B4】 their ethnic and social background, is not only allowed but also encouraged to have chances for active parti

33、cipation in class. 【B5】. teachers often expect independent learning 【B6】 their students. It will be most appreciated if a student can 【B7】 the initiative and complete the assignment without too much 【B8】 upon his or her instructors. These two 【B9】 features in American university classrooms actually

34、manifest the basic American values, especially self-reliance and 【B10】 of opportunity.（分数：-1.00）A.methodsB.meanC.meansD.measureA.as anB.for anC.asD.theA.varyB.deferC.differsD.diversifiedA.without regard ofB.with regard toC.regardless ofD.regardless toA.HoweverB.MoreoverC.WhereasD.OtherwiseA.withB.of

36、use personnel problems for the whole department. And, as every HR (Human Resource) manager knows, it is much more difficult to get rid of someone than it is to 【32】 them. The HR managers first decision is 【33】 to recruit internal applicants or advertise the vacancy outside the company. 【34】 applican

37、ts are easy to recruit by memo, e-mail, or newsletter. Furthermore, they are easy to assess and know the company well. 【35】 , they rarely bring fresh ideas to a position. Moreover, a rejected internal candidate might become unhappy and leave the company. Recruiting outside the company means either a

38、dvertising the vacancy directly or 【36】 an employment agency. If the company decides to advertise the vacancy directly, it has to decide where to place the 【37】 . Traditionally this has meant newspapers and professional journals but now the Internet is also very popular. The decision normally depend

39、s on the vacancy. Companies advertise blue-collar or clerical jobs in local newspapers and senior management 【38】 in national papers or professional journals, 【39】 the Internet is one of the best ways of advertising IT vacancies or recruiting abroad. However, with the Internet there is a risk 【40】 r

He must use this surplus in three ways: as seed for sowing, as an insurance 【B3】 the unpredictable effects of bad weather and as a commodity which he must sell in order to 【B4】 old agricultural implements and obtain chemical fertilizers to 【B5】 the soil.

43、He may also need money to construct irrigation 【B6】 and improve his farm in other ways. If no surplus is available, a farmer cannot be 【B7】 . He must either sell some of his property or 【B8】 extra funds in the form of loans. Naturally he will try to borrow money at a low 【B9】 of interest, but loans

46、e effect of smoking on the health not only 【B2】 those who smoke but also of those who do not. In fact, nonsmokers who must involuntarily inhale the air polluted by the tobacco smoke may 【B3】 more than the smokers themselves. As you are doubtless aware, a considerable number of our students have 【B4】

47、 an effort to 【B5】 the university to ban smoking in the classrooms. I believe they are entirely right in their aim. 【B6】 .I would hope that it is possible to achieve this by 【B7】 on the smokers to use good judgment and show concern for others rather than 【B8】 regulation. Smoking is prohibited by cit

48、y laws in theaters and in halls used for showing films as well as in laboratories 【B9】 there may be a fire hazard. Elsewhere, it is up to your good sense. I am therefore asking you to maintain “No Smoking“ in the auditoriums and classrooms. This will prove that you have to keep nonsmokers health and

49、 well-being 【B10】 . which is very important to a large number of our students. （分数：-1.00）A.concernB.troubleC.interestD.displeasureA.toB.aboutC.withD.ofA.endureB.sufferC.undergoD.put up withA.joinedB.directedC.joined inD.directed atA.makeB.persuadeC.causeD.tellA.But thenB.HoweverC.FurtherD.MoreoverA.pleadingB.beggingC.insistingD.callingA.withB.byC.toD.inA.whichB.whenC.whereD.thatA.on mindB.in heartC.in mindD.on heartAfter the violent earthquake that shook Los Angeles in 1994, earthquake scientists had good news to report: the damage and de
