We spend more than ha

21、lf our conscious hours at work, preparing for work, travelling to and from work. What we do there largely determines our standard of living and to a considerable extent the status we are accorded by our fellow citizens as well. It is sometimes said that because leisure has become more important the

22、indignities and injustices of work can be pushed into a corner; that because most work is pretty intolerable, the people who do it should compensate for its boredoms, frustrations and humiliations by concentrating their hopes on the other parts of their lives. I reject that as a counsel of despair.

23、For the forseeable future the material and psychological rewards which work can provide, and the conditions in which work is done, will continue to play a vital part in determining the satisfaction that life can offer. Yet only a small minority can control the pace at which they work or the conditio

24、ns in which their work is done; only for a small minority does work offer scope for creativity, imagination, or initiative.Inequality al work and in work is still one of the cruelest and most glaring forms of inequality in our society. We cannot hope to solve the more obvious problems of industrial

25、life, many of which arise directly or indirectly from the frustrations created by inequality at work, unless we tackle it head-on. Still less can we hope to create a decent and humane society.The most glaring inequality is that between managers and the rest. For most managers, work is an opportunity

26、 and a challenge. Their jobs engage their interest and allow them to develop their abilities. They are constantly learning; they are able to exercise responsibility; they have a considerable degree of control over their own and others working lives. Most important of all, they have the opportunity t

27、o initiate. By contrast, for most manual workers, and for a growing number of white-collar workers, work is a boring, monotonous, even painful experience. They spend all their working lives in conditions which would be regarded as intolerable for themselves - by those who take the decisions which le

28、t such conditions continue. The majority have little control over their work; it provides them with no opportunity for personal development. Often production is so designed that workers are simply part of the technology. In offices, many jobs are so routine that workers justifiably feel themselves t

29、o be mere cogs in the bureaucratic machine. As a direct consequence of their work experience, many workers feel alienated from their work and their firm, whether it is in public or in private ownership.Rising educational standards feed rising expectations, yet the amount of control which the worker

30、has over his own work situation does not rise accordingly. In many cases his control has been reduced. Symptoms of protest increase - rising sickness and absenteeism, high turnover of employees, restrictions on output, and strikes, both unofficial and official. There is not much escape out and upwar

31、ds. As management becomes more professional - in itself a good thing - the opportunity for promotion from the shop floor becomes less. The only escape is to another equally frustrating manual job; tile only compensation is found not in the job but outside it, if there is a rising standard of living.

32、（分数：5.00）(1).In the writers opinion, people judge others by _.A the type of work they do B the place where they workC the time they spend at work D the amount of money they earn（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).What does the writer think is needed to solve our industrial problems?A A reduction in the number of s

33、trikes. B Promotion of manual and white-collar workers.C A more equal distribution of responsibility. D An improvement in moral standards.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).What advantages does the writer say managers have over other workers?A They cannot lose their jobs. B They get time off to attend courses.C T

34、hey can work at whatever interests them. D They can make their own decisions.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).As a result of better education, people _.A are constantly changing jobs B feel entitled to more responsible jobsC want to own their own business D find their jobs more interesting（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).W

35、hy are so few ordinary workers promoted nowadays?A They dont have the right qualifications.B They are no longer ambitious.C The best workers have already been promoted.D It would be too expensive for the companies.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.九、Text 2(总题数：1，分数：5.00)About 30 000 to 40 000 years ago, specimens of

36、 Neanderthal man disappear abruptly from the fossil record and are replaced by what is known as Cro-Magon man, or sometimes as Upper Pleistocene man, who is physically indistinguishable from modern Homo Sapiens. We do not know what became of the Nean-derthals. Perhaps they were exterminated in warfa

37、re, although there is no evidence of this. Perhaps they were simply unable to compete for food and living space with the better-equipped Cro-Magnon type. Perhaps they interbred, although there are no clear traces of intermediate forms. Some have suggested that Cro-Magnon men brought with them some d

38、isease to which they themselves were resistant and the Neanderthals were not. In any case, soon after the appearance of Cro-Magnon man, there were no other hominids in Europe, and within the course of 10000 to 20000 years, this new variety of primate had spread the face of the planet.Cro-Magnon man,

39、 when he first appeared in Europe, came bearing a new, quite different, and far better tool kit. The stone tools were essentially flakes which, of course, had been in use for more than （分数：5.00）(1).The first paragraph points out that one of the possibilities of what happened to the Neanderthals is t

40、hat they were _.A destroyed by a sudden natural disasterB defeated by Cro-Magnon men in warfareC replaced by intermediate forms of primateD infected with some disease brought by Upper Pleistocene men（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(2).According to paragraph 2, one significant difference between CroMagnon man and h

41、is forebears is _.A his richer and more comfortable lifeB his different style of lifeC his tool kitD his ways of making tools（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(3).Which of the following statements is true?A Cro-Magnon man had closest emotional links to the cave painting.B These drawings have remained in a perfect co

42、nditon over 10 000 years.C Cro-Magnon man kept the paintings within the caves for his descendants.D These drawings are most about Cro-Magnon mans hunting life.（分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(4).Studies exploring the meaning of these drawings and paintings show that _.A the wounded animals may imply the old life o

43、f the hunter or the enemy he hatedB the pregnant animals may symbolize fertility and Cro-Magnon mans hope for the best lifeC the animals in motion may tell us about their migration in the springtimeD the return of the animals heavy with young may have indicated an occasion Cro-Magnon man celebrated（

44、分数：1.00）A.B.C.D.(5).The writers main point in writing this article is _.A to guess the meaning of the cave drawings and paintingsB to compare Cro-Magnon mans life with the life of more recent peoplesC to illustrate Cro-Magnon man and his lifeD to tell us how to study this most immediate ancestor（分数：

45、1.00）A.B.C.D.十、Text 3(总题数：1，分数：5.00)The importance of the independents is a matter not just of acclaim but of commerce, look at the films that make the most money worldwide for each dollar spent in making them. The best performers are often the work of independents; they may be quirky; they may appe

46、al to minorities; they may be funny. What they are almost without exception not is big Hollywood studio dramas. Indeed, many are not even American. The Academy has taken notes. This year two fifths or more of nominees in most major categories came from beyond America.In itself, thats hardly a threat

47、 to Hollywood-co-opting foreign and immigrant talent has been one of its great strengths. The documentary maker Keiko Ibi wept when she won: “Who would have thought a girl from Japan could make a movie about Jewish senior citizens and actually receive this award.“ Martin Scorsese praised Elia Kazans “lifelong quarrel with his adopted country.“ But its not just foreign talent; foreign ideas are slipping in as well. On four out of five of the films nominated for best picture this year, the direct
