On your answer sheet, circle the letter that best answers the qu

28、estion.BPassage One/BThe sources of anti-Christian feeling were many and complex. On the more intangible side, there was a general pique against the unwanted intrusion of the Western countries; there was an understandable tendency to seek an external scapegoat for internal disorders only tangentiall

29、y attributable to the West and perhaps most important, there was a virile tradition of ethnocentricism, vented long before against Indian Buddhism, which, since the seventeenth century, focused on Western Christianity. Accordingly, even before the missionary movement really got under way in the mid-

30、nineteenth century, it was already at a disadvantage. After 1860, as missionary activity in the hinterland expanded, it quickly became apparent that in addition to the intangibles, numerous tangible grounds for Chinese hostility abounded.In part, the very presence of the missionary evoked attack. Th

31、ey were, after all, the first foreigners to leave the treaty ports and venture into the interior, and for a long time they were virtually the only foreigners whose quotidian labors carried them to the farthest reaches of the Chinese empire. For many of the indigenous population, therefore, the missi

32、onary stood as a uniquely visible symbol against which opposition to foreign intrusion could be vented.In part, too, the missionary was attacked because the manner in which he made his presence felt after 1860 seemed almost calculated to offend. By indignantly waging battle against the notion that C

33、hina was the sole fountainhead of civilization and, more particularly, by his assault on many facets of Chinese culture, the missionary directly undermined the cultural hegemony of the gentry class. Also, in countless ways, he posed a threat to the gentrys traditional monopoly of social leadership.

34、Missionaries, particularly Catholics, frequently assumed the garb of the Confucian literati. They were the only persons at the local level, aside from the gentry, who were permitted to communicate with the authorities as social equals. Amid they enjoyed an extraterritorial status in the interior tha

35、t gave them greater immunity to Chinese law than had ever been possessed by the gentry.Although it was the avowed policy of the Chinese government after 1860 that the new treaties were to be strictly adhered to, in practice implementation depended on the wholehearted accord of provincial authorities

36、. There is abundant evidence that cooperation was dilatory. At the root of this lay the interactive nature of ruler and ruled.In a severely understaffed bureaucracy that ruled as much by suasion as by might, the official, almost always a stranger in the locality of his service, depended on the activ

37、e cooperation of the local gentry class. Energetic attempts to implement treaty provisions concerning missionary activities, in direct defiance of gentry sentiment, ran the risk of alienating this class and destroying future effectiveness.（分数：6.00）(1).In a vague way, anti-Christian feeling stemmed f

38、rom _.（分数：1.00）A.the mere presence of invaders.B.a generalized unfocused feeling.C.the introduction to the West.D.none of the above.(2).The author would agree that _.（分数：1.00）A.many problems in China came from internal disorders due to Western influence.B.many problems in China came from China itsel

42、 but you cannot make him drink.C.All that glitters is not gold.D.All of the above apply in various ways to the dichotomy.(6).Provincial authorities _.（分数：1.00）A.cooperated fully with the central governments policy.B.were alive to local feelings.C.were obliged to determine whether local sentiment tol

43、erated implementation.D.may be described by B and CBPassage Two/BProponents of creating large private sectors as quickly as possible in transition economies offer both political and economic arguments to support their view. They argue that if democracy is to become a viable political system in the c

44、ountries undergoing transition, the states monopoly over the bases of political power must be broken so that the countervailing sources of political influence may emerge Berger, 1991. Otherwise, the nomenklatura, managers of stateowned firms and former bureaucrats, may sabotage or block economic ref

45、orms, as well as loot, dissipate or transfer to their own possession the assets of the firms they manage. By creating property owners, privatization can create an ascent middle class that has a stake in the creation and maintenance of an effective system of property rights and the pursuit of economi

46、c policies that would enable the private sector to flourish.The most compelling economic reason for privatizing state-owned enterprises in the transition economies is that as units of production-as distinct from providers of secure employment-they were a failure. Private ownership is thus seen as th

47、e means of unlocking gains in productivity by stimulating productive efficiency, offering greater motivation for both managers and workers, and creating incentives to enter new markets and exit declining ones. Privatization, it is argued, will unleash dynamic small businesses, act as a lure for fore

48、ign direct investment and speed up the painful process of restructuring industry, and it would accomplish all this while returning property to its rightful historical owners and raising funds for the government.Despite this enticing list of promises, many countries of Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union remain reluctant to privatize. Some of the opposition is ideological. Some comes from insiders at state-owned enterprises, both wor
