22、 was going to work. Her bus had inched along through heavy morning traffic, making her a few minutes late for her very first job. She decided to start out half an hour earlier the next day.Once inside the lobby, she had to stand at the elevators and wait several minutes before she could get on one g

23、oing to the sixth floor. When she finally reached the office marked “Smith Enterprises“, she knocked at the door nervously and waited. There was no reply. She tapped on the door again, but still there was no answer. From inside the next office, she could hear the sound of voices, so she opened the d

24、oor and went in.Although she was sure it was the same office she had been in two weeks before when she had the interview with Mr. Smith, it looked quite different now. In fact, it hardly looked like an office at all. The employees were just standing around chatting and smoking. In the front of the r

25、oom, some- body must have just told a good joke, she thought, because there was a loud burst of laughter as she came in. For a moment she had thought they were laughing at her.Then one of the men looked at his watch, clapped his hands and said something to the others. Quickly they all went to their

26、desks and, in a matter of seconds, everyone was hard at work. No one paid any attention to Marie. Finally she went up to the man who was sitting at the desk nearest to the door and explained that this was her first day in the office. Hardly looking up from his work, he told her to have a seat and wa

27、it for Mr. Smith, who would arrive at any moment. Then Marie realized that the days work in the office began just before Mr. Smith arrived. Later she found out that he lived in Connecticut and came into Manhattan on the same train every morning, arriving in the office at 9: 35, so that his staff kne

28、w exactly when to start working.（分数：10.00）(1).Marie felt nervous when she knocked at the door because _.（分数：2.00）A.it was her first day in a new jobB.she was a little bit late for workC.she was afraid that she had gone to the wrong placeD.there was no answer from inside the office(2).Marie could har

With so much conflicting nutritional information about, it can be difficult to tell which we

32、ight-loss strategies really work. Lets start by discounting these confusing myths.1. All calories are created equalWhat you eat, not how much, is the main factor behind weight gain, according to research. Calories from fat pack on the pounds. The reason: during digestion, the body bums many more cal

33、ories metabolising protein and carbohydrates than it does metabolizing fat.2. Desserts are tabooCakes, pies and ice cream can sensibly be worked into a diet, the expert says. Moderation is the key. Cut down on other meals if youll be eating out at a restaurant known for its rich sweets. Or indulge,

34、but take only a few bites.3. Fast foods are forbiddenA plain hamburger on a bun is still a healthful choice. So is grilled chicken or a green salad with low-cal dressing. But watch out for French fries, milkshakes and batter-dipped chicken or fish.4. Fasting is the fastest dietSome studies suggest t

35、hat drastically reducing calorie intake switches the body into a “starvation mode“, which conserves calories and decreases your metabolic rate. The more frequently you deprive yourself of food, the better your body may get at storing calories. So, in the long run, repeated fasting may actually under

36、mine your weight-loss efforts.5. To keep weight off, simply watch what you eatAccording to experts, exercise combined with dieting ensures weight loss better than dieting a- lone does. Experts also agree that sticking with regular, moderate exercise is more important that occasional vigorous workout

37、s are. Obesity-researcher Kelly Brownell encourages patients to make a series of small physical efforts: taking the stairs instead of the elevator and parking the car far from where you are going and walking.Most important, before getting caught up in dietary myths, let good sense shape your eating

38、habits.

41、.00)Labor force is defined as being the total number of people who are available to work and earn in- come. This definition includes everyone who is employed or seeking paid employment, so it includes employees and the self-employed: Labor is one of the Countrys resources which can be combined with

42、other resources to produce the goods and services required by the community.Though the size of the workforce relies greatly on the size of the total population, there are several other aspects which also affect it. The age distribution of the total population has a very marked effect on the availabl

43、e workforce. If the population has a high proportion of very young people or of those too old to work, then the available workforce would be lower than if there were an evenly spread age distribution. If the population grows rapidly from natural increase, i.e. the number of births greatly exceeds th

44、e number of deaths, then as a total population increases the proportion in the workforce declines.Sometimes a population is described as aging, which means that the birth rate is either falling or growing very slowly, and as people retire from the workforce there are inadequate numbers of young peop

45、le entering it to take place of those who are leaving it. The population is top-heavy with older people. So the percentage of the population in the workforce declines when there is either a rapid in- crease in births or a falling birth rate.The age distribution of the population has several importan

46、t influences on the economy. If the population is aging and there is an increase in the number of people retiring without a corresponding increase in the number entering the workforce, this raises the problem of the ability of the economy to provide a reasonable level of social services to the retir

47、ed group. If the aged are to be cared for in special homes or hotels, finance must be available for that purpose. If the size of the workforce is small relative to the total population, then the government tax receipts are relatively low and either the government has less money available to it or th

48、e workforce members have to be taxed more heavily.（分数：10.00）(1).Labor force is composed of _.（分数：2.00）A.people who are available to work and earn incomeB.self-employed people onlyC.only those who are looking for an employmentD.only the employees(2).The factor which does NOT influence the size of the

49、 workforce is _.（分数：2.00）A.the size of populationB.age distribution of the populationC.national economyD.natural increase(3).The conclusion which can be drawn safely from the second paragraph is that _.（分数：2.00）A.a population growth from natural increase leads to a greater proportion of the workforceB.a large population does not necessarily mean a higher proportion of workforceC.the larger the number of the aged in a population, the higher the proportion of the workforceD.if the population has an ev
