(40 points) 35 The ordinary family in colonial North America was primarily concerned with sheer physical survival and beyond th

18、at, its own economic prosperity. Thus, children were valued in terms of their productivity, and they assumed the role of producer quite early. Until they fulfilled this role, their position in the structure of the family was one of subordination and their psychological needs and capacities received

19、little consideration. As the society became more complex, the status of children in the family and in the society became more important. In the complex, technological society that the United States has become, each member must fulfill a number of personal and occupational roles and be in constant co

20、ntact with a great many other members. Consequently, viewing children as potentially acceptable and necessarily multifaceted members of society means that they are regarded more as people in their own right than as utilitarian organisms. This acceptance of children as equal participants in the conte

21、mporary family is reflected in the variety of statutes protecting the rights of children and in the social and public welfare programs devoted exclusively to their well-being. This new view of children and the increasing contact between the members of society has also resulted in a surge of interest

22、 in child-rearing techniques. People today spend a considerable portion of their time conferring on the proper way to bring up children. It is now possible to influence the details of the socialization of another person s child by spreading the gospel of current and fashionable theories and methods

23、of child rearing. The socialization of the contemporary child in the United States is a two-way transaction between parent and child rather than a one-way, parent-to-child training program. As a consequence, socializing children and living with them over a long period time is for parents a mixture o

24、f pleasure, satisfaction, and problems. 36 Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? （ A） The Place of Children in United States Society （ B） The Children of Colonial North America （ C） The Development of Cultural Values （ D） The Child as a Utilitarian Organism 37 According to

28、couples （ D） child-rearing techniques 40 I am one of the many city people who are always saying that given the choice we managed to convince myself that if it weren t for my job 1 would immediately head out for the open spaces and go back to nature in some sleepy village buried in the country. But h

29、ow realistic is the dream? Cities can be frightening places. The majority of the population live in massive tower blocks, noisy, dirty and impersonal. The sense of belonging to a community tends to disappear when you live fifteen floors up. Children become aggressive and nervouscooped up at home all

30、 day, with nowhere to play; their mothers feel isolated from the rest of the world. Strangely enough, whereas in the past the inhabitants of one street all knew each other, nowadays people on the same floor in tower blocks don t even say hello. Country life, on the other hand, differs from this kind

31、 of isolated existence in that a sense of community generally binds the inhabitants of small villages together. People have the advantage of knowing there is always someone to turn to when they need help. But country life has disadvantages too. While it is true that you may be among friends in a vil

32、lage, it is also true that you are cut off from the exciting and important events that take place in cities. There s little possibility of going to a new show or the latest movie. Shopping becomes a major problem, and for anything slightly out of the ordinary you have to go on an expedition to the n

33、earest large town. Some people have found(or rather bought)a compromise between the country and the city; they have expressed their preference for the “quiet life“ by leaving the suburbs and moving to villages within commuting distance of large cities. They generally have about as much sensitivity a

34、s the plastic flowers they leave behind they are polluted with strange ideas about change and improvement which they force on to the unwilling original inhabitants of the village. What then of my dreams of leaning on a cottage gate and murmuring “morning“ to the locals as they pass by? Im keen on th

35、e idea, but you see there s my cat, Toby. Im not at all sure that he would take to all that fresh air and exercise in the long grass. I mean, can you see him mixing with all those hearty males down the farm? No, he would rather have the electric imitation-coal fire any evening. 41 We get the impress

36、ion from the first paragraph that the author_. （ A） used to live in the country （ B） used to work in the city （ C） works in the city （ D） lives in the country 42 In the authors opinion, the following may cause city people to be unhappy EXCEPT_. （ A） a strong sense of fear （ B） lack of communication

39、ons: Read the following text carefully and then translate the underlined segments into Chinese. (10 points) 46 The way that people spend their money, and the objects on which they spend it, are one of the areas where free choice and individuality can be expressed. The choice reflects personal taste,

40、 the way people see themselves and the fantasies they have about their lives, the restrictions on money a-vailable to them, the presence of others in the family with a claim on that money, and the influence of current convention, cultivation, surroundings and locality. Shopping is an important human

41、 activity. Yet shoppers are faced with a confusing situation and a rapidly changing one. The confusion arises from the claims made by advertising, from inadequate information about new products, new materials , new places to shop a confusion enhanced by rising prices and a wider choice of goods than

42、 ever before. The search for the right purchase is based on ignorance of their own needs and ignorance of the product s fitness for those needs. When choosing any particular item, there are several lines of communication which might provide some guidance. Yet none of these is entirely satisfactory.

43、For example, you can ask a shop assistant initially. Even if you find one, she may quite generally not know the answers. She may be a schoolgirl with a Saturday job, or a housewife working part-time. 47 这次到台湾访问交流，虽然行程匆匆，但是，看了不少地方，访了旧友，交了新知，大家走到一起，谈论的一个重要话题就是中华民族在 21世纪的强盛。虽然祖国大陆 、台湾的青年生活在不同的社会环境中，有着各
