It has never been truer than it is today. The young are better educated. They have a lot more money to 【 C2】 _ and enjoy more freedom. T

25、hey grow up more quickly and are not so dependent on their【 C3】 _. They think more for themselves and do not 【 C4】_(blind)accept the ideals of their elders. Events which the older generation remembers vividly are nothing more than【 C5】 _history. This is as it should be. Every new generation is diffe

26、rent from the one that preceded it. Today the【 C6】 _ (differ)is very marked indeed. The【 C7】 _always assume that they know best for the simple reason that they have been around a bit longer.

27、he young are doing. They are questioning the【 C9】 _(assume)of their elders and disturbing their complacency. Office hours, for instance, are nothing more than enforced slavery.

28、 the men in the world should【 C10】 w_ drab gray suits and convict haircuts? These are not questions the older generation can shrug【 C11】 _ lightly.

31、 a sin, everyone knows that. We have probably all had lectures pointing out that laziness is immoral, that it is wasteful, and that lazy people will never amount to anything in life. But laziness can be more harmful than that, and it is often caused by more complex reasons than simple wish to avoid

32、work. Some people who appear to be lazy are suffering from much more serious problems. They may be so distrustful of their fellow workers that they are unable to join in any group task for fear of ridicule or fear of having their ideas stolen. These people who seem lazy may be paralyzed by a fear of

33、 failure that prevents fruitful work. Or other sorts of fantasies may prevent work; some people are so busy planning, sometimes planning great deals or fantastic achievements, which they are unable to deal with whatever “lesser“ work is on hand. Still other people are not avoiding work; strictly spe

34、aking, they are merely procrastinating rescheduling their day. Nevertheless, laziness can actually be helpful. Like procrastinators, some people may look lazy when they are really thinking, planning, contemplating, researching. We should all remember that some great scientific discoveries occurred b

35、y chance or while someone was “goofing off. Newton wasnt working in the orchard when the apple hit him and he devised the theory of gravity. All of us would like to have someone “lazy“ build the car or stove we buy, particular if that job right. And sometimes being “lazy“ that is, taking time off fo

36、r a rest is good for the overworked student or executive. Taking a rest can be particular helpful to the athlete who is trying too hard or the doctor whos simply working himself overtime too many evenings at the clinic. So be careful when youre tempted to call somebody lazy. That person may be think

37、ing, or planning his next book.

39、r to be rich than poor, for some people the quest for money is so all-consuming that it extinguishes all other aspects of life. The cause of the compulsion to make enormous sums of money varies with the individual, but often money is a substitute for something a persons life lacks. To some, money me

40、ans security. To some, it means power. To others it means they are going to be able to buy love, and to a fourth group it means competition and winning the game. The belief that money can produce these things often leads to insomnia, heart attacks and problems with a spouse or children. A tremendous

41、 need for power is invariably the bottom line for those driven to make a lot of money. The bigger the pile, the more powerful they think they will feel. Parents and family background also influence a persons pursuit of money. Many people who grew up poor and then made a fortune live in fear that the

42、y will lose it. Others strive for money to compete with their wealthy, successful parents. They want to be successful at any price. They do not feel they should enjoy what they have earned. Making money for its own sake can be addicting like high-stakes gambling. Some very wealthy people work so man

43、y hours, so hard and at such an intense pace that they totally neglect themselves. They dont eat right. They dont sleep right. They just act as if they were poor, as if they were struggling to make a dime. Many wealthy people are driven by the need for approval. But they may go out of their ways not

44、 to appear wealthy out of fear that they may receive less support from others. Obsession with money is a mans problem, but with the ranks of female executives growing, the feverish quest for money is becoming more of “equal-opportunity“ problem. In some ways, women may have the greatest conflict wit

45、h making money. In societys eyes, financial achievement is not fully satisfying for women. They must also be successful as nurturers. Directions: Answer the following questions with the information given in the passage in a maximum of 10 words for each question. 66 What is money in the authors point

46、 of view? 67 What can the wrong belief about money lead to? 68 What is the bottom line of having too much money? 69 What will influence a persons pursuit of money? 70 Why do many rich people pretend to be poor? Section C 70 The history of the American people is, in part, the history of the movement

47、of the American people. They moved from the colonies of the East Coast to the open spaces of the West. They moved from the country and the farm to the city. More recently, Americans have been moving from the cities to the suburbs. Pioneer Americans began moving from the East Coast to the West 250 ye

48、ars ago. They moved west for many reasons. One reason was the availability of unlimited open space and land for farming. Americans liked large open spaces, and they also liked the freedom and independence to develop the land in their own way. Some of the land became farms. Important minerals were di

49、scovered in some areas, so some of the land became mines. Other large areas became cattle ranches. There seemed to be enough land for everybody.
