Now, however, this desire for more than we need is causing serious problems. Even though we have good inte

16、ntions, we may be producing too much, too fast. Those who criticize economic growth argue that we must slow down. There include the fixed supply of natural resources, the possible negative effects of industry on the natural environment, and the continuing increase in the worlds population. As societ

17、y reaches these limits, economic growth can no longer continue, and the quality of life will decrease. People who want more economic growth, on the other hand, argue that even at the present growth rate there are still many poor people in the world. Those proponents of economic growth believe that o

18、nly more growth can create the capital needed to improve the quality of life in the world. Furthermore, they argue that only continued growth can provide the financial resources required to protect our natural surrounding from industrialization. This debate over the desirability of continued economi

19、c growth is of vital importance to business and industry. If those who argue against economic growth are the business community must pay attention to these problems and continue discussing them with one another. 36 According to those who agree against economic growth we must slow down for the follow

20、ing reasons EXCEPT that_.（A）our natural surroundings are in danger of being destroyed by industry（B） the fixed supply of natural resources marks a point beyond which growth can not continue（C） the world population is ever increasing（D）more efforts should be made to improve the quality of our materia

21、l life37 Those who want more economic growth believe that continued economic growth_.（A）is essential to the well-being of society as a whole（B） can provide the solution to many of our social problems today（C） can protect our environment from being polluted by industry（D）can provide us with more natu

A mistake on one inexpensive postage

25、 stamp has made the stamp worth a million and a half times its original value. The mistake was made more than a hundred years ago in the British colony (殖民地) of Mauritius, a small island in the Indian Ocean. In 1847 an order for stamps was sent to a London printerMauritius was to become the fourth c

26、ountry in the world to issue stamps. Before the order was filled and delivered, a ball was planned at Mauritius Government House, and stamps were needed to send out the invitations. A local printer was instructed to copy the design for the stamps. He accidentally marked the words “ Post Office“ inst

27、ead of “ Post Paid“ on the several hundred stamps that he printed. Today there are only twenty-six of these misprinted stamps leftfourteen One-Penny Orange-Reds and twelve Two-Penny Blues. Because of the Two-Penny Blues rareness and age, collectors have paid as much as $ 16800 for it. 41 Mauritius i

28、s the name of_.（A）an island kingdom（B） a British colony（C） a province of India（D）a London printer42 In 1847 most countries of the world were_.（A）not yet using postage stamps（B） collecting valuable stamps（C） buying stamps from Mauritius（D）printing their own stamps43 The mistake on the locally printed

30、 the stamps to send out invitations to a ball.（C） The printer was punished for his mistake.（D）Collectors are constantly looking for stamps with mistakes. 45 Every country tends to accept its own way of life as being the normal one and to praise or criticize others as they are similar to or different

31、 from it. And unfortunately, our picture of the people and the way of life of other countries is often a distorted(曲解)one. Here is a great argument in favor of foreign travel and learning foreign languages. It is only by traveling in, or living in a country and getting to know its inhabitants and th

32、eir language that one can find out what a country and its people are really like. And how different the knowledge one gains this way frequently turns out to be from the second-hand information gathered from other sources! How often we find that the foreigners whom we thought to be such different peo

33、ple from ourselves are not very different after all!Differences between peoples do, of course, exist and, one hopes, will always continue to do so. The world will be a dull place indeed when all the different nationalities behave exactly alike, and some people might say that we are rapidly approachi

34、ng this state of affairs. With the much greater rapidity and ease of travel, there might seem to be some truth in this at least as far as Europe is concerned. However this may be, at least the greater ease of travel today has revealed to more people than ever before that the Englishman or Frenchman

35、or German is not some different kind of animal from themselves.46 Every country criticizes ways of life in other countries because they are_.（A）distorted（B） normal（C） similar to each other（D）different from its own47 One who travels in a foreign country and learns its language will_.（A）find out what

36、its people are like（B） argue in favor of this country and the language（C） know the country and its people better（D）like its inhabitants and their language48 The knowledge one gains by traveling in a foreign country is often_.（A）from second-hand information（B） gathered from other sources than from it

37、s inhabitants（C） gained from the arguments about the country（D）different from what one had before the travel49 Differences between peoples_.（A）will gradually disappear because of ease of travel（B） do exist even though different nationalities behave exactly alike（C） will always continue to exist and

38、the world will be a bull place（D）will not exist as one hopes50 “However“ (Line 6, Para. 3)most probably means_.（A）Somewhat（B） By whatever means（C） Anyhow（D）No matter what50 A scientist who wants to predict the way in which consumers (消费者) will spend their money must study consumer behavior. He must

39、obtain data both on the resources of consumers and on the motives that tend to encourage or discourage money spending. If an economist were asked which of three groups borrow most people with rising incomes, stable incomes, or decreasing incomeshe would probably answer, those with decreasing incomes

40、. Actually in the years 1947 1950, the answer was: people with rising incomes. People with decreasing incomes were next and people with stable incomes borrowed the least. This shows us that traditional assumptions (假设) about earning and spending are not always reliable. Another traditional assumptio

41、n is that if people who have money expect prices to go up they will hasten to buy. If they expect prices to go down, they will postpone buying. But research surveys have shown that this is not always true. The expectations of price increases may not stimulate buying. One typical attitude was express

42、ed by the wife of a mechanic in an interview at a time of rising prices. “In a few months, “she said, “we 11 have pay more for meat and milk; we 11 have less to spend on other things. “Her family had been planning to buy a new car but they postponed this purchase. Furthermore, the rise in prices tha

43、t has already taken place may be disliked and buyers resistance may be produced. This is shown by the following typical comment; “I just dont pay these prices; they are too high. “ The investigations mentioned above were carried out in America; The condition most helpful to spending appears to be pr

44、ice stability. If prices have been stable and people consider that they are reasonable, they are likely to buy. Thus, it appears that the common business policy of maintaining stable prices is based on a correct understanding of consumer psychology (心理学) .51 According to the passage, if one wants to

45、 predict the way spend their money, he should（A）rely on traditional assumptions about earning and spending（B） try to encourage or discourage consumers to spend money（C） carry out investigations on consumer behavior and get data on consumers incomes and money spending motives（D）do researches in consu

46、mer psychology in a laboratory52 According to paragraph 2, one traditional assumption is that people with _incomes borrow most.（A）average（B） stable（C） decreasing（D）rising53 According to paragraph 2, research surveys have proved that_.（A）price increases always stimulate people to hasten to buy things

47、（B） rising prices may make people put off their purchase of certain things（C） women are more sensitive to the rising in prices than men（D）the expectations of price increases often make buyers feel angry54 From the results of the surveys, the writer of this article_.（A）concludes that the saving and s

48、pending patterns in Great Britain are better than those in America（B） concludes that the consumers always expect prices to remain stable（C） concludes that maintaining stable prices is a correct business policy（D）does not draw any conclusion55 Which of the following statements is always TRUE accordin

49、g to the surveys mentioned in the passage?（A）Consumers will put off buying things if they expect prices to decrease.（B） Consumers will spend their money quickly if they expect prices to increase.（C） The price condition has an influence on consumer behavior.（D）Traditional assumptions about earning and spending are relia
