21、gined for me or my children. We are living in an environmental crisis, an air-pollution emergency of unprecedented severity. What it really means is that just to breathe here is to play a dangerous game with your health.As parents, what terrorizes us most are reports that children are at higher risk

22、 because they breathe more times per minute. What more can we do to protect them and ourselves? Our pediatricians (儿科医师的) medical recommendation was simple: abandon the city permanently.We are foreigners and we are among the small minority that can afford to leave. We are here because of my husbands

23、 work. We are fascinated by Mexicoits history and rich culture. We know that for us, this is a temporary danger. However, we cannot stand for much longer the fear we feel for our boys. We cannot stop them from breathing.But for millions, there is no choice. Their lives, their jobs, their futures dep

24、end on being here. Thousands of Mexicans arrive each day in this city, desperate for economic opportunities. Thousands more are born here each day. Entire families work in the streets and practically live there. It is a familiar sight: as parents hawk goods at stoplights, their children play in the

25、grassy highway dividers, breathing exhaust fumes. I feel guilty complaining about my personal situation; we wont be here long enough for our children to form the impression that skies are colored only gray.And yet the government cannot do what it must to end this problem. For any country, especially

26、 a developing Third World economy like Mexicos, the idea of barring from the capital city enough cars, closing enough factories and spending the necessary billions on public transportation is simply not an option. So when things get bad, as in the current emergency, Mexico takes half measuresprohibi

27、ting some more cars from circulating, stopping some factories from producingthat even its own officials concede arent adequate.The word “emergency“ implies the unusual. But when daily life itself is an emergency, the concept loses its meaning. It is human nature to try to adapt to that which we cann

28、ot change, or to mislead ourselves into believing we can adapt.（分数：5.00）(1).According to the passage, the current emergency in Mexico City refers to _ .（分数：1.00）A.serious air-pollutionB.economic crisisC.unemploymentD.natural disaster(2).Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE according to the

29、passage?（分数：1.00）A.Kids are in greater danger than grown-ups in Mexico City.B.The author is not a native Mexican.C.The authors husband is a pediatrician.D.The Mexican history and culture appeal to the author.(3).The word “hawk“ (Par（分数：1.00）A.4) most probably means _ .A. sellB. transportC. placeD. d

30、eliver(4).The Mexican government takes half measures to solve the pollution problem because _ .（分数：1.00）A.Mexican economy depends very much on cars and factoriesB.it is not wise enough to come up with effective measuresC.Mexicans are able to adapt themselves to the current emergencyD.Mexicans enjoy

31、playing dangerous games with their health(5).The purpose of the passage is to _ .（分数：1.00）A.describe the harmful air-pollutionB.explain the way to prevent air-pollutionC.show the worries about the air-pollutionD.recommend a method to avoid air-pollution十、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：5.00)It is reported that

32、 alcohol abuse on college campuses is on the rise. But alcohol abuse is only one symptom of a larger campus crisis. There is a growth in racism, sexism, assault, attempted suicide, theft, property damage and most disappointing of all, cheating on exams.A generation has come to college quite fragile,

33、 not very secure about who it is, fearful of its lack of identity and without confidence in its future. Many students are ashamed of themselves and afraid of relationships.It is happening because the generation now entering college has experienced few authentic connections with adults in its lifetim

34、e. I call this the “Culture of Neglect“, and weparents, teachers, professors and administratorsare the primary architects.It begins at home, where social and economic factors result in less family time for adults. Most children and teenagers are being reared without mothers being around, with televi

35、sion as their only supervisor, and there is little expectation that they learn personal responsibility. Immersed in themselves, they are left to their peers.We have failed to model a culture of responsibility. We have created a culture characterized by marriage failures, mass schooling that demands

36、only minimal effort and media idols subliminally (下意识的)teaching disrespect for authority and wisdom. When the children do wrong, it is not their fault. On the contrary, its our fault. It seems that the children are always owned something by the busy parents and by the overworked teachers. The childr

37、en take it for granted that we should take responsibility for their acts. How could college students reared in the culture of neglect have any notion of obligation and responsibility?A nation of individuals who cant read or write well, with no sense of major human questions, who cant think criticall

38、y or show interest in learning and who are unable to act responsibility will be ill equipped to compete in any new world order. A generation of neglect will shape our future. Lets wait and see.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following is not included in the campus crisis?（分数：1.00）A.Alcohol abuse.B.Cheatin

39、g on exams.C.Racial discrimination.D.Lack of financial support.(2).What does “Immersed in themselves, they are left to their peers“ mean in Paragraph 4?（分数：1.00）A.Without parents guidance, children look at what their peers do and follow them.B.Children are left to themselves and do what they like to

40、 do.C.No one takes care of the children, so they seek their peers help.D.Children are immersed in deep water, only their peers can help them out.(3).The main reasons that can account for the “culture of neglect“ are the following EXCEPT _ .（分数：1.00）A.social and economic factors result in less family

41、 time for adultsB.women do not quit their jobs and take care of their children as they used to doC.there are so many disrupted familiesD.media idols intentionally disrespect authority and wisdom(4).According to the passage, which of the statements is true?（分数：1.00）A.Our children dont need to be resp

42、onsible for their behavior.B.We fail to teach the generation what responsibility and obligation is.C.No parents expect their children learn personal responsibility.D.The generation now entering the college has established close connections with adults.(5).The tone of the passage is _ .（分数：1.00）A.opt

43、imisticB.pessimisticC.cheerfulD.indifferent十一、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Conventional wisdom about conflict seems pretty much cut and dried. Too little conflict breeds apathy (冷淡) and stagnation (呆滞). Too much conflict leads to divisiveness (分裂) and hostility. Moderate levels of conflict, however,

44、can spark creativity and motivate people in a healthy and competitive way.Recent research by Professor Charles R. Schwenk, however, suggests that the optimal level of conflict may be more complex to determine than these simple generalizations. He studied perceptions of conflict among a sample of exe

45、cutives. Some of the executives worked for profit-seeking organizations and others for not-for-profit organizations.Somewhat surprisingly, Schwenk found that opinions about conflict varied systematically as a function of the type of organization. Specifically, managers in not-for-profit organization

46、s strongly believed that conflict was beneficial to their organizations and that it promoted higher quality decision making than might be achieved in the absence of conflict.Managers of for-profit organizations saw a different picture. They believed that conflict generally was damaging and usually l

47、ed to poor-quality decision making in their organizations. Schwenk interpreted these results in terms of the criteria for effective decision making suggested by the executives. In the profit-seeking organizations, decision-making effectiveness was most often assessed in financial terms. The executiv

48、es believed that consensus rather than conflict enhanced financial indicators.In the not-for-profit organizations, decision-making effectiveness was defined from the perspective of satisfying constituents. Given the complexities and ambiguities associated with satisfying many diverse constituents ex

49、ecutives perceived that conflict led to more considered and acceptable decisions.（分数：5.00）(1).In the eyes of the author, conventional opinion on conflict is _ .（分数：1.00）A.wrongB.oversimplifiedC.misleadingD.unclear(2).Professor Charles R. Schwenks research shows _ .（分数：1.00）A.the advantages and disadvantages of conflictB.the real value of conflictC.the difficulty in determining the definition of conflictD.the complexity of defi
