23、00)Lacking a cure for AIDS, society must offer education, not only by public pronouncement but also in classrooms. Those with AIDS or those at high risk of AIDS suffer prejudice; they are feared by some people who find living itself unsafe, while others conduct themselves with a “bravado“ that could

24、 be fatal. AIDS has afflicted a society already short on humanism, open-handedness and optimism. Attempts to strike it out with the offending microbe are not abetted by pre-existing social ills. Such concerns impelled me to offer the first university level undergraduate AIDS course, with its two imp

25、ortant aims:To address the fact the AIDS is caused by a virus, not by moral failure of societal collapse. The proper response to AIDS is compassion coupled with an understanding of the disease itself. We wanted to foster (help the growth of) the idea of a humane society.To describe how UAIDS tests i

26、nstitutions upon which our society rests./U The economy, the political system, science, the legal establishment, the media and our moral ethical-philosophical attitudes must respond to the disease. Those responses, whispered, or shrieked, easily accepted or highly controversial, must be put in order

27、 if the nation is to manage AIDS. Scholars have suggested that how a society deals with the threat of AIDS describes the extent to which that society has the right to call itself civilized. AIDS, then, is woven into the tapestry of modern society; in the course of explaining that tapestry, a teacher

28、 realizes that AIDS may bring about changes of historic proportions. Democracy obliges its educational system to prepare students to become informed citizens, to join their voices to the public debate inspired by AIDS. Who shall direct just what resources of manpower and money to the problem of AIDS

29、? Even more basic, who shall formulate a national policy on AIDS? The educational challenge, then, is to enlighten the individual and the societal, or public responses to AIDS.（分数：5.00）(1).What is the passage mainly talking about? A. The necessity of the education about AIDS. B. How to achieve the a

30、ims of AIDS courses. C. Risks associated with AIDS. D. Social responses to AIDS.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).Why did the author offer the AIDS course? A. He wanted to teach people about a cure for AIDS. B. People need to be taught how to avoid those with AIDS. C. He wanted to teach the students that AIDS re

31、sulted from moral failure. D. People take improper attitudes towards AIDS and those with or at high risk of AIDS.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The word “afflict“ in the third sentence of the first paragraph most probably means “_“. A. benefit B. cause suffering to C. teach D. draw attention from（分数：1.00）A.B.

32、C.D.(4).What does the author think is the correct response to AIDS? A. Fear and contempt. B. Optimism and bravado. C. Understanding and compassion. D. Resentment and avoidance.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Which of the following can best explain “AIDS tests the institutions upon which our society rests“ acco

33、rding to the passage? A. AIDS is a sign of moral failure and social collapse. B. AIDS indicates that our social systems have been very inefficient. C. The responses of a society to the threat of AIDS determines whether and to what extent the society can be called civilized. D. The spreading of the f

34、atal disease suggests that the nations resources have been wrongly used.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、BPassage 2/B(总题数：1，分数：5.00)The “standard of living“ of any country means the average persons share of the goods and services which the country produces. A countrys standard of living, therefore, depends first

35、and foremost on its capacity to produce wealth. “Wealth“ in this sense is not money, for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy: “goods“ such as food and clothing, and “services“ such as transport and entertainment.A countrys capacity to produce wealth depends upon many factors, mo

36、st of which have an effect on one another. Wealth depends to a great extent upon a countys natural resources, such as coal, gold, and other minerals, water supply and so on. Some regions of the world are well supplied with coal and minerals, and have a fertile soil and a favorable climate; other reg

37、ions possess perhaps only one of these things, and some regions possess none of them. The USA is one of the wealthiest regions of the world because she had vast natural resources within her borders, her soil is fertile, and her climate is varied. The Sahara Desert, on the other hand, is one of the l

38、east wealthy.Next to natural resources comes the ability to turn them to use. China is perhaps as well off as the USA in natural resources, but suffered for many years from civil and external wars, and for this and other reasons was unable to develop her resources. Sound political conditions, and fr

39、eedom from foreign invasion, enable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily, and to produce more wealth than another country equally well served by nature but less well ordered.Another important factor is the technical efficiency of a countrys people. Old countries that ha

40、ve, through many centuries, trained up numerous skilled craftsmen and technicians are better placed to produce wealth than countries whose workers are largely unskilled. Wealth also produces wealth. As a country becomes wealthier, its people have a large margin for saving, and can put their savings

41、into factories and machines which will help workers to turn out more goods in their working day.（分数：5.00）(1).A countrys wealth depends upon_. A. its standard of living B. its money C. its ability to provide goods and services D. its ability to provide transport and entertainment（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).

42、The word “foremost“ in Paragraph 1 means_. A. most importantly B. firstly C. largely D. for the most part（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).The main idea of the second paragraph is that_. A. a countrys wealth depends on many factors B. the USA is one of the wealthiest countries in the world C. the Sahara Desert i

43、s a very poor region D. natural resources are an important factor in the wealth or poverty of a country（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).The word “civil“ refers to wars that are_. A. long-lasting B. fought between one part of a country and another C. short but frequent D. carried out according to the internation

44、al law（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).Which of the following statements is NOT true according to the passage? A. Countries with numerous skilled craftsmen and technicians are more likely to produce wealth. B. People of a wealthy country are likely to have higher living standard. C. A country with rich natural

45、resources is certainly wealthy. D. A countrys capacity to produce wealth is subject to many factors.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十、BPassage 3/B(总题数：1，分数：4.00)He landed in this country when he was 4 years old without a word of English, and there he has recently graduated with honors from Loyola Academy.An immigr

46、ant kid whose family rents an apartment in a city two-flat, he attended the North Shore school with full scholarship. All the aunts and uncles were so proud that they made their way from the old country or from various comers of this country to celebrate his graduation.A debate is raging about whether immigrant children first should be taught English, then their other subjects; or whether they should be taught other subjects in their native tongue as they are more gradually introduced to English over two to three years.California voters recently ban
