1、考研英语(阅读)模拟试卷 367 及答案与解析Part ADirections: Read the following four texts. Answer the questions below each text by choosing A, B, C or D. (40 points)0 The abortion debate has raged since 1973, when the Supreme Court gave abortion constitutional protection, but the basic law of the land has proved immut
2、able. Abortion is legal, and its going to remain legal for a long time.Laws often alter attitudes, inducing people to accept thingssuch as racial integrationthey once rejected.

But abortion clinics may be growing scarcer because of a decline in demand for their services and a public opinion climate that has gotten
9、more inhospitable. This growing aversion to abortion may be traced to better information. When the Supreme Court legalized abortion in 1973, most people had little understanding of fetal development. But the proliferation of ultrasound images from the womb, combined with the dissemination of facts b
10、y pro-life groups, has lifted the veil. The prevailing view used to be: Abortion may be evil, but it s necessary.

15、 dating online youll find that there are many sites that claim to be free.
