3、in part by the way they are exposed to this subject. If we are going to do research, I think some of it should extend to the emotional health of parents who bring their children up with these fears. Some of the most ardent disarmament proponents seem to be sorely lacking in common sense when it come

4、s to child-rearing: The young ages of some of these frightened children indicate that they are receiving their nuclear-war information directly from their parents long before they are able to read books, magazines or newspapers on the subject, or even before they would voluntarily choose to view tel

5、evised reports and programs on the subject.No one can be comfortable expecting the prospect of nuclear war. It is a global problem that does exist, must be acknowledged and should be addressed by individuals and their governments. But life cannot stop in the meantime; children must have their childh

6、ood if they are to grow into emotionally healthy adults. Can they really do so if they are preoccupied with death; if in response to concerns thrust upon them by their misguided parents, they place the fear of nuclear war before every other concern in their lives?1 Why does the author say that some

7、of the most ardent disarmament proponents “ seem to be lacking in common sense when it comes to child-rearing“ ?（A）Because it is harmful to the emotional growth of the young children to tell them so many terrifying scenes.（B） Because they probably have no children of their own.（C） Because they are n

8、ot aware that their efforts will prove useless.（D）Because they often differ in opinions as to how they should raise their children.2 Which of the following is the source from which pre-school children learn about nuclear war?（A）Newspapers and magazines.（B） Books.（C） TV reports and programs.（D）Their

9、parents.3 The author implies that so much exposure to the threat of nuclear war will cause the children_.（A）to be mentally unhealthy（B） to commit suicide during their childhood（C） to distrust their parents（D）to fear everything4 The last sentence of this passage implies that_.（A）children in the Unite

12、ke subject choices and when, according to a careers officer, they know if they re a scientific lot or more inclined to the arts. The difficult part is bringing the outside world to life with all its opportunities and realities. Schools are handicapped because they are staffed by people who only know

13、 about schools. Careers services are heavily influenced by what is readily available in the area, which may be sausage-making(香肠制造)in Wiltshire of ship-building in Clydeside. Somewhere out in the world there are snail(蜗牛)geneticists(遗传学家)and landscape gardeners and girls who polish Elizabeth Taylor

14、s diamonds, but the careers officer knows little of them. What he knows about is engineering and hairdressing and opportunities in the Army. It is not surprising that this constant friction between grand aspirations(抱负)and uninspired reality produces cynicism(玩世不恭，愤世嫉俗)in both parties.Wherever they

15、work, sixteen and seventeen-year-olds can find themselves used as cheap labor, picking things up off floors, fetching and carrying. Some are paid a reasonable wage but it is quite possible to be paid only pocket-money. Thats in the living-in jobs like hotel work. There is a small breakthrough of gir

16、ls into traditionally male preserves like agriculture, but that may be because very few boys now would put up with the low wages. Most girls, despite women s liberation, head straight for hairdressing, nursing or office work and dream of being swept off their feet by the boss.6 In what sense does th

22、acher is to get his pupils as quickly as possible over the period in which each printed symbol is looked at for its shape, and arrive at the stage when the pupil looks at words and phrases, for their meaning, almost without noticing the shapes of the separate letters.When a good reader is at work, h

23、e does not look at letters, nor even at words, one by one, however quickly; he takes in the meaning of two, three, or four words at a time, in a single moment. Watch carefully the eyes of a person who is reading, and it will be seen that they do not travel smoothly along the lines of print, but they

24、 move by jumps separated by very short stops. The eyes of a very good reader move quickly taking long jumps and making very short halts; the eyes of a poor reader move more slowly, taking only short jumps and stopping longer at each halt. Sometimes, when he meets a difficulty, he even goes backwards

25、 to see again what has already been looked at once.The teachers task is therefore clear: it is to train his pupils to take in several words at a glance(one “eye-jump“)and to remove the necessity for going backwards to read something a second time.This shows at once that letter-by-letter, or syllable

26、-by-syllable(音节)or word-by-word reading, with the finger pointing to the word, carefully fixing each one in turn, is wrong. It is wrong because such a method ties the pupil s eyes down to a very short jump, and the aim is to train for the long jump. Moreover , a very short jump is too short to provi

27、de any meaning or sense; and it will be found that having struggled with three or four words separately, the pupil has to look at them again, all together and in one group, in order to get the meaning of the whole phrase.11 Which of the following is closest in meaning to the first paragraph?（A）Pupil

28、s should be trained to reach quickly the stage of reading without having to concentrate on the separate symbols.（B） Pupils should look at each printed symbol for its meaning as well as for its shape.（C） Teachers should help their pupils avoid looking at the shape of the printed symbols.（D）Teachers s

29、hould tell their pupils the different stages of their study.12 In a single moment, a good reader picks up_.（A）several words（B） several phrases（C） several sentences（D）several lines13 According to the passage, which of the following is FALSE?（A）The eyes of a good reader make short halts and long jumps

30、.（B） The eyes of a bad reader take in the meaning of one word at a time.（C） The eyes of a bad reader take only short jumps.（D）The eyes of a good reader move steadily.14 One may have to read something a second time if_.（A）there is enough time（B） one reads too fast（C） the passage is very long（D）one re

31、ads word by word15 The main idea of the last paragraph is that_.（A）word-by-word reading is highly inefficient（B） the pupil s eyes should focus on groups of syllables instead of single syllables（C） pupils have to move their eyes back and forth when reading（D）finger-pointing in reading helps the pupil

32、 concentrate on meaning15 Large companies need a way to reach the saving of the public at large. The same problem, on a smaller scale, faces practically every company trying to develop new products and create new jobs. There can be little prospect of raising the sort of sums needed from friends and

33、people we know, and while banks may agree to provide short-term finance, they are generally unwilling to provide money on a permanent basis for long-term projects. So companies turn to the public, inviting people to lend them money, or take a share in the business in exchange for a share in future p

34、rofits. This they do by issuing stocks and shares in the business through The Stock Exchange. By doing so they can put into circulation the saving of individuals and institutions, both at home and overseas.When the saver needs his money back, he does not have to go to the company with whom he origin

35、ally placed it. Instead, he sells his shares through a stockbroker to some other saver who is seeking to invest his money.Many of the services needed both by industry and by each of us are provided by the Government or by local authorities. Without hospitals, roads, electricity, telephones, railways

36、, this country could not function. All these require continuous spending on new equipment and new development if they are to serve us properly, requiring more money than is raised through taxes alone. The government, local authorities, and nationalized industries therefore frequently need to borrow

37、money to finance major capital spending, and they, too, come to The Stock Exchange.There is hardly a man or woman in this country whose job or whose standard of living does not depend on the ability of his or her employers to raise money to finance new development. In one way or another, this new mo

38、ney must come from the savings of the country. The Stock Exchange exists to provide a channel through which these savings can reach those who need finance.16 Almost all companies involved in new production and development must_.（A）rely on their own financial resources（B） persuade the banks to provid

39、e long-term finance（C） borrow large sums of money from friends and people they know（D）depend on the population as a whole for finance17 The money which enables these companies to go ahead with their projects is_.（A）repaid to its original owners as soon as possible（B） raised by the selling of shares

40、in the companies（C） exchanged for part ownership in The Stock Exchange（D）invested in different companies on The Stock Exchange18 When the savers want their money back they_.（A）ask another company to obtain their money for them（B） look for other people to borrow money from（C） put their shares in the

41、company back on the market（D）transfer their money to more successful company19 All the essential services on which we depend are_.（A）run by the Government or our local authorities（B） in constant need of financial support（C） financed wholly by rates and taxes（D）unable to provide for the needs of the

42、population20 The Stock Exchange makes it possible for the Government, local authorities and nationalized industries_.（A）to borrow as much money as they wish（B） to make certain everybody saves money（C） to raise money to finance new developments（D）to make certain everybody lends money to them专升本英语（阅读）
