Each passage is followed b

20、y 5 questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are 4 choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the best one and mark the corresponding letter with a single bar across the square brackets on your machine-scoring ANSWER SHEET. 20 The long-term fortunes of the modern economy depend in part o

21、n the strength and sustainability of the family, both in relation to fertility trends and to marriage trends. This basic, but often overlooked, principle is now at work in the current global economic crisis. The decline of marriage and fertility is one factor in the global economic crisis. That is o

22、ne reason that some of the worlds leading economies from Japan to Italy to Spain to the euro zone as a whole are facing fiscal challenges is that their fertility rates have been below replacement levels(2. 1 children per woman)for decades. Persistent sub-replacement fertility eventually translates i

23、nto fewer workers relative to retirees, which puts tremendous strains on public coffers and the economy as a whole. Indeed, one recent study finds that almost half of the recent run-up in public debt in the West can be attributed to rapid aging over the last two decades. Even China may see its sky-h

24、igh growth “ come down to earth in the next few decades as its work force shrinks“ because of its one-child policy, as Carlos Cavalle and I argued in a recent report, The Sustainable Demographic Dividend. By contrast, a recent Rand study suggests that “India will have more favorable demographics tha

25、n China“ over the next few decades, insofar as its work force is poised to grow. In fact, the Rand study suggests that India may be able to use this demographic advantage to outpace Chinas economic growth rates by the end of the century. Finally, its not just fertility that matters; its also marriag

26、e. At least in the West, children are more likely to acquire the human and social capital they need to thrive in the modern economy when they are raised in an intact, married family. In the U. S. , for instance, children are more likely to graduate from high school, complete college and be gainfully

27、 employed as young adults if they were raised in an intact, married family. And around the globe, men are more likely to give their work their fullest effort and attention when they are married; this is one reason men worldwide enjoy “ marriage premiums“ in their income, ranging from about 14 percen

28、t(Mexico)to 19 percent(United States)to 35 percent(Russia). So, at least when it comes to men, research suggests that marriage has important implications for worker productivity. The bottom-line message is that what happens in the home does not stay at home; rather, the size of families, and their s

29、tability and quality, has important implications for the health of the global economy. 21 The main idea of this passage is that_. （ A） women should bear more children in order to boost the economy （ B） both marriage and fertility affect a countrys economy （ C） marriage has important implications for

30、 worker productivity （ D） India will outpace Chinas economic growth rate by the end of the century 22 One reason that the worlds leading economies are facing fiscal challenges is that_. （ A） there is a global economic crisis in recent years （ B） there are fewer babies, and consequently, people spend

31、 less on many commodities （ C） people in these countries have fewer children than needed to replace the population for many years （ D） there are tremendous strains on public coffers and the economy as a whole 23 “.its work force is poised to grow “(Paragraph 3)probably means_. （ A） its work force pa

32、uses to grow （ B） its work force continues to grow fast （ C） its work force continues to grow steadily （ D） its work force grows slowly 24 From the passage we know that_. （ A） children from an intact, married family are more likely to have a better life （ B） the more people a country has, the strong

33、er economy it will have （ C） the health of the global economy depends entirely on individual families （ D） men are likely to work harder when they are going to have children 25 According to the passage, all the following can affect economy EXCEPT_. （ A） the size of families （ B） the stability of fam

34、ilies （ C） the quality of families （ D） men and women ratio within the families 25 Imagine eating everything delicious you want with none of the fat. That would be great, wouldnt it? New “fake fat“ products appeared on store shelves in the United States recently, but not everyone is happy about it.

35、Makers of the products, which contain a compound called olestra, say food manufacturers can now eliminate fat from certain foods. Critics, however, say that the new compound can rob the body of essential vitamins and nutrients and can also cause unpleasant side effects in some people. So it is up to

36、 consumers to decide whether the new fat-free products taste good enough to keep eating. Chemists discovered olestra in the late 1960s, when they were searching for a fat that could be digested by infants more easily. Instead of finding the desired fat, the researchers created a fat that cant be dig

37、ested at all. Normally, special chemicals in the intestines “ grab“ molecules of regular fat and break them down so they can be used by the body. A molecule of regular fat is made up of three molecules of substances called fatty acids. The fatty acids are absorbed by the intestines and bring with th

38、em the essential vitamins A, D, E and K. When fat molecules are present in the intestines with any of those vitamins, the vitamins attach to the molecules and are carried into the bloodstream. Olestra, which is made from six to eight molecules of fatty acids, is too large for the intestines to absor

39、b. It just slides through the intestines without being broken down. Manufacturers say its that ability to slide unchanged through the intestines that makes olestra so valuable as a fat substitute. It provides consumers with the taste of regular fat without any bad effects on the body. But critics sa

40、y olestra can prevent vitamins A, D, E and K from being absorbed. It can also prevent the absorption of carotenoids, compounds that may reduce the risk of cancer, heart disease, etc. Manufacturers are adding vitamins A, D, E and K as well as carotenoids to their products now. Even so, some nutrition

41、ists are still concerned that people might eat unlimited amounts of food made with the fat substitute without worrying about how many calories they are consuming. 26 We learn from the passage that olestra is a substance that_. （ A） contains plenty of nutrients （ B） renders foods calorie-free while r

42、etaining their vitamins （ C） makes foods easily digestible （ D） makes foods fat-free while keeping them delicious 27 The result of the search for an easily digestible fat turned out to be_. （ A） commercially useless （ B） just as anticipated （ C） somewhat controversial （ D） quite unexpected 28 Olestr

43、a is different from ordinary fats in that_. （ A） it passes through the intestines without being absorbed （ B） it facilitates the absorption of vitamins by the body （ C） it helps reduce the incidence of heart disease （ D） it prevents excessive intake of vitamins 29 What is a possible effect of olestr

44、a according to some critics? （ A） It may impair the digestive system. （ B） It may affect the overall fat intake. （ C） It may increase the risk of cancer. （ D） It may spoil the consumers appetite. 30 Why are nutritionists concerned about adding vitamins to olestra? （ A） It may lead to the over-consum

45、ption of vitamins. （ B） People may be induced to eat more than is necessary. （ C） The function of the intestines may be weakened. （ D） It may trigger a new wave of fake food production. 30 In the same way that a child must be able to move his arms and legs before he can learn to walk, the child must

46、 physiologically be capable of producing and experiencing particular emotions before these emotions can be modified through learning. Psychologists have found that there are two basic processes by which learning takes place. One kind of learning is called “ classical conditioning“. This occurs when

47、one event or stimulus is consistently paired with, or followed by, a reward or punishment. It is through classical conditioning that a child learns to associate his mothers face and voice with happiness and love, for he learns that this person provides food and comfort. Negative emotions are learned

48、 in a similar fashion. The second kind of learning is called “ operant conditioning. “ This occurs when an individual learns to do things that produce rewards in his environment and learns not to do things that produce punishments. For example, if a mother always attends to her baby when he cries an

49、d cuddles him until he is quiet, she may teach him that if he cries he will get attention from mother. Thus, the baby will learn to increase his crying in order to have his mother more. Every day, we grow and have new experiences. We constantly learn by reading, watching television, interacting with some people, and so forth. This learning affects our emotions. Why is it that we learn to like some people and disli
