14、ion of the detainees.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.五、PART READING COMPR(总题数：0，分数：0.00)六、TEXT A(总题数：1，分数：5.00)Cheating in sport is as old as sport itself. The athletes of ancient Greece used potions to fortify themselves before a contest, and their modern counterparts have everything from anabolic steroids and gr

15、owth hormones to doses of extra red blood cells with which to invigorate their bodies. These days, however, such stimulants are frowned on, and those athletes must therefore run the gauntlet of organizations such as the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA), which would rather that athletes competed witho

16、ut resorting to them.The agencies have had remarkable success. Testing for anabolic steroids (in other words, artificial testosterone) was introduced in the 1970s, and the incidence of cheating seems to have fallen dramatically as a result. The tests, however, are not foolproof. And a study just pub

17、lished in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology the principal risk factor in diabetes; heavily implicated in cancer and other diseases. Since the World Health Organisation labelled obesity an “epidemic“ in 2000, reports on its fearful consequences have come thick and fast.Will public-health warnings

18、, combined with media pressure, persuade people to get thinner, just as they finally put them off tobacco? Possibly. In the rich world, sales of healthier foods are booming and new figures suggest that over the past year Americans got very slightly thinner for the first time in recorded history. But

19、 even if Americans are losing a few ounces, it will be many years before the country solves the health problems caused by half a centurys dining to excess. And, everywhere else in the world, people are still piling on the pounds. Thats why there is now a consensus among doctors that governments shou

20、ld do something to stop them.Theres nothing radical about the idea that governments should intervene in the food business. Theyve been at it since 1202.when King John of England first banned the adulteration of bread. Governments and people seem to agree that ensuring the safety and stability of the

21、 food supply is part of the states job. But obesity is a more complicated issue than food safety. It is not about ensuring that people dont get poisoned; it is about changing their behaviour. Should governments be trying to do anything about it at all?There is a bad reason for doing something. The b

22、ad reason is that governments should help citizens look after themselves. People, the argument goes, are misled by their genes, which are constantly trying to pack away a few more calories just in case of a famine around the corner. Governments should help guide them towards better eating habits. Bu

23、t that argument is weaker in the case of food than it is for tobacconicotine is addictive, chocolate is not-and no better than it is in any other area where people have a choice of being sensible or silly. People are constantly torn by the battle between their better and worse selves. Its up to them

24、, not governments, to decide who should win.（分数：5.00）(1).Which of the following may best summarize the cause of todays obesity?A In prosperity think of adversity.B The cat shuts its eyes when stealing cream.C Better to die in glory than live in dishonor.D Things have changed with the passage of time

26、ys a decisive role in handling obesity.B wise people tend to become thinner than silly people.C people should have the willpower to stop overeating.D people tend to eat too much because of their genes.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).What is the main subject of the passage?A The consequence of Americans obesity

27、.B Governments intervention in overweight.C Peoples role in fighting against obesity.D Americans expanding waistline.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.十、TEXT E(总题数：1，分数：2.00)A System of Guaranteed Subsistence MinimumA hundred years ago it was assumed and scientifically “proved“ by economists that the laws of society

28、 made it necessary to have a vast army of poor and jobless people in order to keep the economy going. Today, hardly anybody would dare to voice this principle. It is generally accepted that nobody should be excluded from the wealth of the nation, either by the laws of nature or by those of society.

29、The opinions, which were current a hundred years ago, that the poor owed their conditions to their ignorance, lack of responsibility, are outdated. In all Western industrialized countries, a system of insurance has been introduced which guarantees everyone a minimum of subsistence in case of unemplo

30、yment, sickness and old age. I would go one step further and argue that, even if these conditions are not present, everyone has the right to receive the means to subsist, in other words, he can claim this subsistence minimum without having to have any “reason“. I would suggest, however, that it shou

31、ld be limited to a definite period of time, lets say two years, so as to avoid the encouraging of an abnormal attitude, which refuses any kind of social obligation.This may sound like a fantastic proposal, but so, I think, our insurance system would have sounded to people a hundred years ago. The ma

32、in objection to such a scheme would be that if each person were entitled to receive minimum support, people would not work. This assumption rests on the fallacy of the inherent laziness in human nature, actually, aside from abnormally lazy people, there would be very few who would not want to earn m

33、ore than the minimum, and who would prefer to do nothing rather than work.However, the suspicions against a system of guaranteed subsistence minimum are not groundless from the standpoint of those who want to use ownership of capital for the purpose of forcing others to accept the work conditions th

34、ey offer. If nobody were forced to accept work in order not to starve, work would have to be sufficiently interesting and attractive to induce one to accept it. Freedom of contract is possible only if both parties are free to accept and reject it; in the present capitalist system this is not the cas

35、e.But such a system would not only be the beginning of real freedom of contract between employers and employees, its principal advantage would be the improvement of freedom in interpersonal relationships in every sphere of daily life.（分数：2.00）(1).People used to think that poverty and unemployment we
