An increase in prices is usually associated with high employment. In moderate inflat

23、ion, industries are operating efficiently and output is near capacity. There is a great deal of private investment and jobs are plentiful. Such has been the historical pattern. Thus many business persons and union leaders, in evaluating a little deflation and a little inflation, consider the latter

24、to be the lesser of two evils. In mild inflation, the losses to fixed-income groups are usually less than gains to the rest of the community. Even workers with relatively fixed wages are often better off because of improved employment opportunities and greater take-home pay, a rise in interest rates

25、 on new securities may partly compensate for any losses to creditor, and increases in pension benefits may partly make up losses to retirees. In deflation, on the other hand, the growing unemployment of labor and capital causes the community“s total well-being to be less; so in a sense, the gainers

26、get less than the losers lose. As a matter of fact, in a depression, or a time of severe deflation, almost everyone suffers, including the creditor who is left with uncollectible debts. For these reasons as increase in consumption of investment spending is considered good in times of unemployment, e

27、ven if this tends to increase prices slightly. When the economic system is suffering from severe depression, few people will criticize private or public spending on the ground that this might be inflationary. Actually, most of this increased spending will increase production and create jobs. Once, f

28、ull employment and full plant capacity have been reached, however, any further increases in spending are likely to be completely wasted in price increase.（分数：6.00）(1).“Historical pattern“ mentioned in the passage means that in mild inflation_.（分数：1.00）A.there will be more production and employmentB.

29、private investment will be moderate and people“s income will be influencedC.the bad effects of the two evils will be associated with each otherD.industrial revolution made men and women more equal(2).Which of the following happens if there is mild inflation?（分数：1.00）A.Everyone loses because of the i

30、ncrease of prices.B.Retired people do experience some influence.C.Creditors gain rather than lose with a rise in interest rates.D.Some people gain more while others lose.(3).In times of inflation_.（分数：1.00）A.people like private or public investmentB.there is usually full plant capacityC.creditors su

31、ffer more than other peopleD.everyone suffers and no one gains(4).The author“s attitude towards investment is that_.（分数：1.00）A.the more the investment, the better the economyB.private investment is better than public investmentC.investment should be set to a limitD.investment at the time of inflatio

32、n is considered better than at the time of deflation(5).Which of the following is clearly the author“s own opinion?（分数：1.00）A.The lesser of the two evils is not deflation but inflation.B.People“s income is influenced by both inflation and deflation.C.Investment is good in times of deflation and unem

33、ployment.D.Private and public investment can cause inflation during deflation.(6).From the passage we can see that inflation may affect the following except_.（分数：1.00）A.priceB.employmentC.social wealthD.stock market十、Passage Two(总题数：1，分数：6.00)Perhaps all criminals should be required to carry cards w

34、hich read: Fragile; Handle with Care. It will never do, these days, to go around referring to criminals as violent thugs. You must refer to them politely as “social misfits“. The professional killer who wouldn“t think twice about using his club or knife to batter some harmless old lady to death in o

35、rder to rob her of her meager life-savings must never be given a dose of his own medicine. He is in need of “hospital treatment“. According to his misguided defenders, society is to blame. A wicked society breeds evilor so the argument goes. When you listen to this kind of talk, it makes you wonder

36、why we aren“t all criminals. We have done away with the absurdly harsh laws of the nineteenth century and this is only right. But surely enough is enough. The most senseless piece of criminal legislation in Britain and a number of other countries has been the suspension of capital punishment. The vi

37、olent criminal has become a kind of hero-figure in our time. He is glorified on the screen; he is pursued by the press and paid vast sums of money for his “memoirs“. Newspapers which specialize in crime reporting enjoy enormous circulations and the publishers of trashy cops and robbers stories or “m

38、urder mysteries“ have never had it so good. When you read about the achievements of the great train robbers, it makes you wonder whether you are reading about the some glorious resistance movement. The hardened criminal is cuddled and cosseted by the sociologists on the one hand and adored as a hero

39、 by the masses on the other. It“s no wonder he is a privileged person who expects and receives VIP treatment wherever he goes. Capital punishment used to be a major deterrent. It made the violent robber think twice before pulling the trigger. It gave the cold-blooded prisoner something to ponder abo

40、ut while he was shaking up or serving his arsenic cocktail. It prevented unarmed policemen from being killed while pursuing their duty by killers armed with automatic weapons. Above all, it protected the most vulnerable members of society, young children, from brutal violence. It is horrifying to th

41、ink that the criminal can literally get away with murder. We all know that “life sentence“ does not mean what it says. After ten years or so of good conduct, the most desperate villain is free to return to society where he will live very comfortably, thank you, on the proceeds of his crime, or he wi

42、ll go on committing offences until he is caught again. People are always willing to hold liberal views at the expense of others. It“s always fashionable to pose as the defender of under-dog, so long as you, personally, remain unaffected. Did the defenders of crime, one wonders, in their desire for f

43、air-play, consult the victims before they suspended capital punishment? Hardly. You see, they couldn“t, because all the victims were dead.（分数：6.00）(1).What is the main idea of the text?（分数：1.00）A.Society is to blame for the rising crime.B.All the criminals are to be sympathized.C.Crime defenders hav

44、e done a lot for criminals.D.Severe punishment should be used to prevent crime.(2).In the author“s opinion, all the following are to blame for crime EXCEPT_.（分数：1.00）A.societyB.the criminals themselvesC.the suspension of life sentenceD.the defender“s role(3).The word “deterrent“ (Line 1, Para. 3) mo

45、st probably means “_”.（分数：1.00）A.threatB.delayC.determinationD.hindrance(4).What is the tone of the text?（分数：1.00）A.Critical.B.Cynical.C.Ironic.D.Humorous.(5).What is the author“s attitude toward capital punishment?（分数：1.00）A.Negative.B.Sympathetic.C.Supportive.D.Neutral.(6).From the third paragraph

46、 we can see that_.（分数：1.00）A.capital punishment is really effectiveB.capital punishment may workC.capital punishment is merely effective on protecting adults from brutal violenceD.capital punishment is sure to protect the policeman in other hand十一、Passage Three(总题数：1，分数：6.00)The gravitational pull o

47、f the Earth and the Moon is important to us as we attempt to conquer more and more of outer-space. Here“s why. As a rocket leaves the Earth, the pull of the Earth on it becomes less and less as the rocket roars out into space. If you imagine a line between the Earth and the Moon, there is a point so

48、mewhere along that line, nearer to the Moon than to the Earth, at which the gravitation pull of both the Earth and the Moon on an object is just about equal. An object placed on the Moon side of that point would be drawn to the Moon. An object placed on the Earth side of that point would be drawn to

49、 the Earth. Therefore, a rocket need be sent only to this “point of no return“ in order to get it to the Moon. The Moon“s gravity will pull it the rest of the way. The return trip of the rocket to the Earth is, in some ways, less of a problem. The Earth“s gravitational field reaches far closer to the Moon than does the Moon“s to the Earth. Thus it will be necessary to fire an Earthbound rocket only a few thousand miles away from the Moon to reach a point where the rocket will dr
