The decennial

31、 censuses provide documentation in their redundant accounts of rapid changes and growth in most of our great cities. But statistical evidence is hardly needed. The changes in our cities have occurred so rapidly that the perception of mobility is an integral formed in the intervals between visits. Th

32、e neighbour-hoods of our childhood present alien appearances and the landmarks that anchored our memories have disappeared. How do these dramatic changes in residential areas come about? In part, industry and commerce in their expansion encroach upon land used for residence. But, in larger part, the

33、 changes are mass movements of families-the end results of countless thousands of residence shifts made by urban Americans every year. Compound in the mass, the residence shifts of urban households produce most of the change and flux of urban population structures. Some of the mobility is an express

34、ion of the growth of our population. Every new family started ordinarily means another household formed. The mobility that occurs is much greater than can be accounted for only by an addition of new households to our population. The high level of mobility implies that established households are invo

35、lved in a large-scale game of “musical chairs“ in which housing is exchanged from time to time. Residential shifts often accompany the dissolution of households, although not as consistently as in the case of the formations of new households. A divorce or separation forces at least one to move, and

36、often both husband and wife Shift residence. Morality sometimes precipitates a move on the part of the remaining members of the household. But, neither divorce nor morality, when added to new household formation, can account for more than a very small part of the American mobility rate. Another part

37、 of the high residential mobility rate might be traced to changes occurring in the labour force. American workers change jobs frequently and some of the residential mobility might be viewed as consequence of job shifts that do not involve long-distance movements. About three fourths of such shifts d

38、o not cross country boundaries and many of them take place within smaller areas. Neither can job shifts account for the overall picture of mobility, much of which is a kind of “milling out“ within small areas of the city. 81 The phrase “encroach upon“ in Paragraph 2 most probably means _. （ A） buy a

39、nd sell （ B） measure and survey （ C） invade and occupy （ D） rent and share 82 Which of the following can account for a large part of the high American mobility rate? （ A） Divorce and morality. （ B） Expansion of industry and commerce. （ C） Changes in the labour force. （ D） None of the above. 83 The w

40、ord “consequence“ in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _. （ A） result （ B） expression （ C） form （ D） subsequence 84 According to the fifth paragraph, Americans who change their jobs usually _. （ A） prefer small towns to big cities （ B） feel reluctant to move more than several miles away （ C） thin

41、ks it worthwhile to move to a foreign country （ D） dislikes moving to faraway places 84 The purpose of the home was to rehabilitate patients as far as possible, so that they could face the harsh realities of life outside hospital. Most of them not only suffered from some form of nervous disease but

42、had other handicaps as well. For most of them, the hospital had been their refuge for some time and the idea of being rehabilitated was somewhat frightening. They doubted their own capabilities, and were nervous of the effort which would be required from them. The home contains within a research uni

43、t which is mainly concerned with overcoming the technical problems which arise from the patients physical disabilities. Full rehabilitation involves a need for a patient to be as independent as possible physically. It is in the research centre that all types of electronic equipment are pioneered, mu

44、ch of it exceedingly delicate and complex. One of the things I found astonishing as I watched what was going on in the workshop was the ease with which the patients became accustomed to the equipment. This of course has the dual effect of making them physically independent and giving them the psycho

45、logical satisfaction of having mastered a difficult problem. And this extra confidence is, of course, a further step towards rehabilitation. While I was there, I was fortunate enough to be able to talk to a couple of patients who had been fully rehabilitated and who had come back for the weekend to

46、visit their friends. One, a former physical education teacher who suffered from paralysis from the waist down, was now teaching general studies in a primary school. After his accident, he told me, he had had a complete nervous breakdown and had indeed tried to commit suicide several times. “But when

47、 I got here, I realized that there were still some things I could do, and that there were people worse off than me who were out in the world doing them,“ he said,“ Yes, I expect I shall get depressions again. You cant completely cure that kind of thing. But theyll pull me out of it, at least I know

48、that now.“ 85 The “home“ in this text refers to _. （ A） the hospital （ B） the refuge camp （ C） the research centre （ D） the place away from reality 86 What does the author mean by “rehabilitate“? （ A） to cure nervous diseases （ B） to overcome physical disabilities （ C） to adapt to a new situation （

49、D） to restore to a relatively normal life 87 The research unit aims to help people to _. （ A） invent complete electronic equipment （ B） become physically independent （ C） gain confidence about themselves （ D） master difficult problems 88 What is true about the teacher mentioned in Paragraph 3? （ A） He was recovered from paralysis. （ B） He realized that he was luckier than others. （ C） He thought highly of the rehabilitation place. （ D） He
