根据以下材料，回答题

A Country"s Standard of Living

The "standard of living" of any country means the average person"s share of the goods and services the country produces. A country"s standard of living， therefore __________ （51） first on its capacity to produce wealth. "Wealth" in this __________ （52） is not money， for we do not live on money but on things that money can buy: "goods" such as food and clothing， and "services" such as transport and entertainment.

A country"s capacity to __________ （53） wealth depends upon many factors， most of __________ （54）have an effect on one another. Wealth depends __________ （55） a great extent upon a country"s natural resources. Some regions of the word are well supplied with coal and minerals， and have fertile （肥沃的）soil and a favorable climate; other regions __________ （56） none of them. Next to natural resources comes the ability to __________ （57） them to use. China is perhaps as rich as the USA in natural resources， but suffered for many years __________ （58） civil and external wars. And for this and other __________ （59） was unable to develop her resources. Sound and stable political conditionsand __________ （60） from foreign invasionsenable a country to develop its natural resources peacefully and steadily， and to produce more __________ （61） than another country equally well favored by nature but less well ordered.

A country"s standard of living does not only depend upon the wealth that is produced and __________ （62） within its own borders， but also upon what is directly produced through intemational trade. For example， Britain"s wealth in foodstuffs and other agricultural __________ （63） would be much less if she had to dependonly on those grown at home. Trade makes it possible for her surplus （过剩的 ） manufactured goods to be Waded abroad for the agricultural products __________ （64）would otherwise be lacking. A country"s wealth is， therefore， much influenced by its manufacturing capacity， __________ （65） that other countries can be found ready to accept its manufactures.

根据以下材料，回答题

Migrant （移民的） Workers

In the past twenty years， there has been an increasing tendency for workers to move from one country to another. While some countries have restricted most __________ （51） to local people，others have attracted and welcomed migrant workers. This is particularly the case in the Middle East， __________ （52） increased oil incomes have enabled many countries to call in outsiders to improve local facilities. Thus the Middle East has attracted oilworkers __________ （53） the U. S. A. and Europe. It has brought in workers from many countries， __________ （54） South Korea and Japan.

In view of the difficult living and worldng __________ （55） in the Middle East， it is not surprising that the pay is high to attract suitable workers. Many engineers and technicians can __________ （56） at least twice as much money in the Middle East as they can in their own country， and this is a major __________ （57）

Sometimes a disadvantage has a compensating （补偿的 ）advantage. For example， the __________ （58）living conditions often lead to increased friendship when workers have to __________ （59） on each other for safety and comfort. In a similar way， many migrant workers can save large sums of money partly because of the __________ （60） of entertainment facilities. The work is often complex and full of problems but this merely __________ （61） greater challenge to engineers who prefer to find solutions to problems rather than do routine work in their home country.

One major problem which __________ （62） migrant workers in the Middle East is that their jobs are temporary ones. They are nearly always on __________ （63） ， so it is not easy for them to plan ahead with great confidence. This is to be __________ （64） since no country welcomes a large number of foreign workers as permanent residents. In any __________ （65）， migrant workers accept this disadvantage， along with others， because of the considerable financial benefits which they receive.

根据以下材料，回答题。The Greatest Show on EarthThe Olympic Games are the greatest festival

根据以下材料，回答题。

The Greatest Show on Earth

The Olympic Games are the greatest festival of sport in the world. Every four years， a hun-dred or more countries send their best sportsmen to compete for the highest honors in sport. As many as 6，000 people take part in over 20 sports. For the winners， there are gold medals and glory. But there is honor， too， for all who compete， win or lose. That is in spirit of the Olympics-to take part is what matters.

The Olympic Games always start in a bright color and action. The teams of all the nations parade in the opening ceremony and march round the track. The custom is for the Greek team to march in first. For it was in Greece that the Olympics began. The team of the country where the Games are being held——the host country——marches in last.

The runner with the Olympic torch then enters the stadium and lights the flame. A sportsman from the host country takes the Olympic oath on behalf of all the competitors. The judges and officials also take an oath. After the sportsmen march out of the stadium， the host country puts on a wonderful display.

The competitions begin the next day. There are usually more than twenty sports in the Games. The rule is that there must be at least fifteen. The main events are in track and field， but

it is a few days before these sports start. Each day the competitors take part in a different sport riding， shooting， swimming， and cross-country running. Points are gained for each event. Medals are awarded for the individual winners and for national teams.

More and more women are taking part in the games. They first competed in 1900， in tennis " and golf， which are no longer held in the Olympics. Women"s swimming events were introduced in 1912. But it was not until 1928 that there were any track and field events for women. Now， they compete in all but half a dozen of the sports. In horse riding， shooting， and boat racing， they may

compete in the same events as the men.

Why is there honor for the losers as well as for the winners？ 查看材料

A.Because failure is the mother of success.

B.Because losers need encouragement.

C.Because losers and winners should be equally treated.

D.Because what really matters is to take part in the Olympic Games.

根据以下材料，回答题

Studies Show US Spending Doesn"t Get Best Health

The United States may spend twice as much on health care as other rich countries， but it is not getting results to match according to studies released on Tuesday.

But in the study of five wealthy countries， published in the journal Health Affairs， researchers found no single nation had clearly the worst or best health care system.

Gerard Anderson at Johns Hopkins University"s school of public health and colleagues came up with a list of 21 health fields they could evenly compare across the five countries ——Australia，Canada， Britain， New Zealand and the United States.

"Hone of the five countries is consistently the best or the worst on all 21 indicators." Anderson said during a telephone briefing for reporters.

"If you are looking for the place to get the best care， there isn"t a single place. Every country has at least one indicator where it scores the best of the five countries and each country has at least one indicator where it scores the worst of the five countries. "

But， he said， the United States is not getting value for money. "The United States should be particularly concerned about these results， given that we spend twice as much on health care as any other country. So spending more doesn"t necessarily result in "better outcomes."

Anderson"s group of international health experts sponsored by the Commonwealth Fund spent five years working on the study， getting the latest possible data from the five countries on areas such as breast cancer and leukemia survival， suicide rates， death rates from asthma， vaccination rates and cancer screening.

The US spends twice as much on health care as other rich countries. 查看材料

根据以下材料，回答题A New Citizenship Test（1） Last week， a sample of the new US citizenship

根据以下材料，回答题

A New Citizenship Test

（1） Last week， a sample of the new US citizenship （公民身份） exam was released by the US Citizenship and Immigration Services （US-CIS）. It will be tried out in 10 cities early next year to replace the current test in 2008. Instead of asking how many stripes the US flag has， as the current test does， the new one asks why there are 13 stripes. Instead of having to name the branches of government， an applicant is asked to explain why there are three.

（2） "The goal is to make it more meaningful." explains Emilio Gonzalez， director of the US-CIS.Immigrants who pass it are expected to have a better "understanding and respect" for US civic（公民的） values， Gonzalez says.

（3） The US isn"t the only country dealing with citizenship tests that aim to get a "shared commitment" from immigrants for their adopted country"s "values". In recent years， in addition to the usual requirement of language/work skills and economic status， several European countries have adopted citizenship tests. Britain introduced a new citizenship test last November. In March， a new Dutch law took effect requiring all would-be immigrants to take a citizenship test. It involved watching a video showing nude （裸体的 ） women bathing at beaches and gay （同性恋的 ） men kissing in public. The aim was to ensure that "newcomers will be comfortable with the country"s liberal social mores （风俗） ".

（4） Europe has been known for welcoming immigrants for decades. But， today， the fact is that some immigrants are kept apart from local citizens by culture and they become hostile to each other. Promoting integration has become a major concern for European countries， after the rioting in Muslim ghettoes （穆斯林聚居区） in France and the killing of Dutch public figures by religious extremists.

（5） Officials believe that a person"s attachment to， a country can be tested by his or her knowledge of the country. However， some critics say that the changes can do little to help people assimilate （同化） themselves. "Immigration is a culture war today. Is giving a new test the right way to lessen the accusations in that fight？" says Ali Noorani， of the Massachusetts Immigrant and Refugee Advocacy Coalition （难民辩护联盟） .

Paragraph 2 __________ 查看材料

A.Preparation for taking a citizenship test

B.Citizenship tests in European countries

C.Importance of promoting integration

D.Necessity to know the branches of government

E.Different views on the new citizenship test

F.Goal of the new citizenship test

根据以下材料，回答题。SmugglingIt is not unusual for a pet to be sent by air cargo from Colu

根据以下材料，回答题。

Smuggling

It is not unusual for a pet to be sent by air cargo from Columbia to New York， but last December"s shipment of a 4-year-old sheep dog caught a New York Kennedy Airport Customs inspector"s eye. The dog looked to be on its last legs， and there was an unusual lump on the side of its body. An X-ray and emergency surgery revealed the presence of 10 condoms tightly packed with five pounds of cocaine that had been surgically implanted in the dog"s abdomen——yet another first for Customs in the war on drugs.

When it comes to transporting drugs， the methods used are only as limited as a smuggler"s imagination. Kilo bricks of cocaine are routinely concealed beneath false bottoms of containers that hold poisonous snakes. "You"ve got snakes that are 12 feet long，" says a United States Fish and Wildlife Service agent——and sometimes the drug is in the snake. "Who"s going to pull it out.

In 1994， United States Customs seized 204，391 pounds of cocaine ，559，286 pounds of marijuana and 2，577 pounds of heroin， just how much actually flows into the country is anyone"s guess. Some Customs officials estimate that only 10 percent of the drugs coming into the country are ever seized. In Miami， the District Attorney won"t even prosecute small fry. "It"s got to be over five kilos of cocaine ，above a kilo of heroin and more than 5，000 pounds of marijuana or it"s not something that we"re going to stop the presses on " says Tom Cash， a retired agent.

Given this deluge， one can only wonder if agents are ever confounded by some of the smuggling methods. "There are things we haven"t seen before，" says John McGhee， a Miami Customs special agent， "but nothing really surprises us. "

The dog was different from others because 查看材料

A.it was very attractive

B.it could stand only on its hind legs

根据以下材料，回答题HighwaysWith the increase in auto production， private turnpike （收费公

根据以下材料，回答题

Highways

With the increase in auto production， private turnpike （收费公路） companies under local authorities began to spring up， and by 1921 there were 387，000 miles Of paved roads. At that time，

there were no national standards for size， weight restrictions， or weight of trucks. During the World War I， roads throughout the country were nearly destroyed by the weight of trucks. When General Eisenhower returned from Germany in 1919， he noted: "The old convoy （车队） had started me thinking about good， two-lane highways， but Germany"s Autobahn or motorway had made me see the wisdom of broader ribbons across the land."

The interstate highway system was finally started in 1956. To build its 44，000-mile web of highways， bridges， and tunnels， hundreds of unique engineering designs and solutions had to be worked out. Considering the many geographic features of the country such as mountains， steep grades， wetlands， rivers， deserts and plains， innovative designs of roadways began to weave their way across the country， forever altering the face of America.

Today， the interstate system links every major city in the U.S.， and the U.S. with Canada and Mexico. Built with safety in mind， the highways have wide lanes and shoulders， dividing medians，or barriers， long entry and exit lanes， curves engineered for safe turns， and limited access. The death rate on highways is half that of all other U.S. roads （0.86 deaths per 100 million passenger miles compared to 1.99 deaths per 100 million on all other roads）.

By opening the North American continent， highways have enabled consumer goods and services to reach people in remote and rural areas of the country， spurred the growth of suburbs，and provided people with greater options in terms of jobs， access to cultural program， health care，and other benefits. Above all， the interstate system provides individuals with what they cherish most: personal freedom of mobility.

The interstate system has been an essential element of the nation"s economic growth in terms of shipping and job creation: more than 75 percent of the nation"s freight deliveries arrive by truck;and most products that arrive by rail or air use interstates for the last leg of the journey by vehicle.

Not only has the highway system affected the American economy by providing shipping routes， it has led to the growth of spin-off industries like service stations， motels， restaurants， and shopping centers. It has allowed the relocation of manufacturing plants and other industries from urban areas to rural.

National standards for paved roads were in place by 1921. 查看材料

根据以下材料，回答题

Immigration and Problems

Hundreds of thousands of people supporting immigration rights in the US filled streets all over America in early 2006. Many held signs and American flags and asked to be treated as citizens—not criminals. Many of these supported legislation from Senator John McCain that would open a path to citizenship to immigrants who were already in the country illegally. Proposed legislation from other politicians called for stricter measures- including rounding up undocumented immigrants and sending them back to their home countries.

Canadian officials say that immigration applications continue to rise. Some want to keep the doors open. They need the labor. About 400，000 immigrants were allowed into the country in 2005，according to the Canadian Government statistics. However， all this growth means that cities need to adapt. New comers don"t always make a smooth transition into jobs for which they are skilled. So industries are using mentoring （辅导 ） programs to help new immigrants find proper jobs.

With the large numbers of undocumented African immigrants arriving in the Canary Islands and showing no sign of abating （减少）， the Spanish Government has decided to get tough. There will be no more mass amnesties （特赦） for illegals， and anyone coming to Spain without permission will be sent back， the government has announced. About 23，000 migrants （移民 ） landed on the islands in2006， and riots have erupted in some crowded reception centers. This has promoted local authorities to appeal to the United Nations for help.

France"s new immigration and integration law gives the government new powers to encourage high-skilled migration. It takes effect in 2007. The new law authorizes the government to identify particular professions where France has a talent shortage. Then the government will help these identified employers find immigrant workers with needed skills or qualifications. The selected foreign employees will be granted "skills and talents" visas， valid for three years. But some people show the concern that it"ll cause brain drain in developing countries.

Many immigrants in the US took to the streets in early 2006， demanding that __________ . 查看材料

A.John McCain be removed

B.they be sent back home

C.they be treated as citizens

D.their culture be protected

根据以下材料，回答题

About Turkey

Some of the concerns surrounding Turkey"s application to join the European Union， to be voted on by the EU"s Council of Ministers on December 17th， are economic—— in particular， the country"s relative poverty. Its GDP per head is less than a third of the average for the 15 pre-2004 members of the EU. But it is not far offthat of one of the ten new members which joined on May 1st 2004 （Latvia）， and it is much the same as those of two countries， Bulgaria and Romania， which this week concluded accession talks with the EU that could make them full members on January 1 st 2007.

Furthermore， the country"s recent economic progress has been， according to Donald Johnston，the secretary-general of the OECD，"stunning". GDP in the second quarter of the year was 13.4% higher than a year earlier， a rate of growth that no EU country comes close to matching. Turkey"s inflation rate has just fallen into single figures for the first time since 1972， and this week the country reached agreement with the IMF on a new three-year， $10 billion economic programme that will， according to the IMF"s managing director， Rodrigo Rato，"help Turkey... reduce inflation toward European levels， and enhance the economy"s resilience".

Resilience has not historically been the country"s economic strong point. As recently as 2001， GDP fell by over 7%. It fell by more than 5% in 1994， and by just under 5% in 1999. Indeed， throughout the 1990s growth oscillated like an electrocardiogram recording a violent heart attack. This irregularity has been one of the main reasons （along with red tape and corruption） why the country has failed dismally to attract much-needed foreign direct investment. Its stock of such investment （as a percentage of GDP） is lower now than it was in the 1980s， and annual inflows have scarcely ever reached $1 billion （whereas Ireland attracted over $25 billion in 2003， as did Brazil in every year from 1998 to 2000）.

One deterrent to foreign investors is due to disappear on January 1st 2005. On that day， Turkey will take away the right of virtually every one of its citizens to call themselves a millionaire. Six noughts will be removed from the face value of the lira; one unit of the local currency will henceforth be worth what lm are now， i. e.， about E0.53 （$0.70）. Goods will have to be priced in both the new and old lira for the whole of the year， but foreign bankers and investors can begin to look forward to a time in Turkey when they will no longer have to juggle mentally with indeterminate strings of zeros.

What is Turkey‘s economic situation now？ 查看材料

A.Its GDP per head is far lagging behind that of the EU members.

B.Its inflation rate is still rising.

C.Its economy grows faster than any EU member.

D.Its economic resilience is very strong.

根据以下材料，回答题Is There a Way to Keep the Britain"s Economy Growing？（1） In today"s kno

根据以下材料，回答题

Is There a Way to Keep the Britain"s Economy Growing？

（1） In today"s knowledge economy， nations survive on the things they do best. Japanese design electronics while Germans export engineering techniques. The French serve the best food and Americans make computers，

（2） Britain specializes in the gift of talking. The nation doesn"t manufacture much of anything.

But it has lawyers， stylists and business consultants who earn their living from talk talk and more talk. The World Foundation think tank says the U.K. "s four iconic jobs today are not scientists， engineers， teachers and nurses. Instead， they"re hairdressers， celebrities，management consultants and managers. But can all tl~is talking keep the British economy going？ The British government thinks it can.

（3） Although the country"s trade deficit was more than ~ 60 billion in 2006， U.K. "s largest in the postwar period， officials say the country has nothing to worry about. In fact， Britain does have a world-class pharmaceutical industry， and it still makes a small sum from selling arms abroad.

It also trades services-accountancy， insurance， banking and advertising. The government believes Britain is on the cutting edge of the knowledge economy. After all， the country of Shakespeare and Wordsworth has a literary tradition of which to be proud. Rock"n"roll is an English language medium， and there are billions to be made by their cutting-edge bands. In other words， the creative economy has plenty of strength to carry the British economy.

（4） However， creative industries account for only about 4 percent ofU.K. "s exports of goods and services. The industries are finding it hard to make a profit， according to a report of the National Endowment for Science， Technology and the Arts. The report shows only 38 percent of British companies were engaged in "innovation activities"， 3 percentage points below the EU average and well below Germany （61 percent） and Sweden （47 percent） .

（5） In fact， it might be better to call Britain a "servant" economy- there are at least 4 million people "in service". The majority of the population are employed by the rich to cook， clean， and take care of their children. Many graduates are even doing menial jobs for which they do not need a degree. Most employment growth has been， and will continue to be， at the low-skill end of the service sector， in shops， bars， hotels， domestic service and in nursing and care homes.

Paragraph 2 __________. 查看材料

A.Growth of economy

B."Servant" economy

C.Strengtfi of the creative economy

D.Weakness of the creative economy

E.Gift of talking

F.Export of talking machines
