1、The State of Marriage TodayIs there something seriously wrong with marriage today? During the past 50 years, the rate of divorce in the United States has exploded: almost 50% of marriages end in divorce now, and the evidence suggests it is going to get worse. If this trend continues, it will lead to the breakup of the family, according to a spokesperson forthe National Family Association. Some futurists predict that in 100 years, the average American will marry at least four times and extramarital affairs will be even more common than they are now.But what are the reasons forthis, and is the picture really so gloomy? The answer to the first question is really quite simple: marriage is no longer the necessity it once was. The institution of marriage has been based foryears partly on economic need. Women used to be economically dependent on their husbands as they usually didn\'t have jobs outside the home. But with the rising number of women in well-paying jobs, this is no longer the case, so they don\'t feel that they need to stay in a failing marriage.In answer to the second question, the outlook may not be as pessimistic as it seems. While the rate of divorce has risen, the rate of couples marrying has never actually fallen very much, so marriage is still quite popular. In addition to this, many couples now cohabit and don\'t bother to marry. These couples are effectively married, but they do not appear in either the marriage ordivorce statistics. In fact, more than 50% of first marriages survive. The statistics are deceptive because there is a higher number of divorces in second and third marriages than in first marriages.So is marriage really an outdated institution? The fact that most people still get married indicates that it isn\'t. and it is also true that married couples have a healthier life than single people: they suffer less from stress and its consequences, such as heart problems, and married men generally consider themselves more contented than their single counterparts. Perhaps the key is to find out what makes a successful marriage and apply it to all of our relationships!How do people usually feel in their marriage life? 【單選題】
A.They are much healthier.
B.They feel no longer single.
C.They are more satisfied.
D.They suffer a lot less.
正確答案:C
答案解析:文中第4段第3句的后半句說得很清楚,結了婚的人比單身的人更滿足。A、D選項提到的是實際情況而不是婚后人們的感覺,因此不對。文中并沒有提到選項B所說的情況。
2、March MadnessForthe rest of the month, an epidemic (流行病) will sweep across the US. It will keep kids stay home from school. College students will ignore piles of homework. Employees will suddenly lose their abilities to concentrate.The disease, known as "March Madness", refers to the nearly 65 teams in US men\'s college basketball tournament, it begins on March 15 and lasts through the beginning of April. Teams compete against each other in a single elimination tournament that eventually crowns a national champion.Nearly 20 million Americans will become the prisoners of basketball festival madness.The fun comes partly from guessing the winners forevery game. Friends compete against friends, husbands against wives, and colleagues against bosses.Big name schools are usually favored to advance into the tournament. But each year there are dark horses from little - known universities.This adds to the madness. Watching a team from a school with 3,000 students beat a team from a school with 30,000, formany Americans, is an exciting experience. Last year the little - known George Mason University was one of the final four teams. Many people had never even heard of the university before the tournament.College basketball players are not paid, so the game is making a name fortheir university and themselves. But ft doesn\'t mean money isn\'t involved. About $ 4 billion will be spent gambling on the event. According to Media Life magazine, the event will draw over $ 500 million in advertising revenue this year, topping the post - season revenue, including the NBA (全國籃球協會).What will happen in the remaining part of the month? ____【單選題】
A.Many Americans will be sent to madhouses.
B.Great excitement will spread across the US.
C.About 20 million Americans will be put in prison.
D.A deadly epidemic will break out in the US.

3、Life at Aichi UniversityI\'m Yamamoto Mika, a 22 years old Japanese girl. I\'d like to invite you to Aichi University so you can understand my life.Our university has a close relationship with China and my department is the only one of its kind in Japan. My courses include the Chinese language, modern Chinese politics and economics. I love Chinese culture and I have been to Tianjin as an exchange student.In Japan, our courses are divided into compulsory, optional and specialized courses. However, we have a flexible schedule. We can choose classes from a wide range of options.Many students finish the compulsory courses in three years so that they can have one year without any classes. They often use this period of time to study abroad, conduct research and travel. Many students even suspend their study foradditional study - abroad opportunities,Japanese universities encourage students to choose their own ways of study, so it is quite easy forus to apply forstudy suspension.Japanese students participate in various kinds of extracurricular (課外的) activities. They attend clubs from elementary schools, so many students have already been accustomed to clubs when they enter university.Our university now has 42 art clubs and 45 sports clubs. The annual University Festival is the grandest carnival (狂歡節) of Japanese universities. In the festival, students promote their clubs and organize various activities. Our university\'s festival attracted about 150,000 people last year. I really like this festival.When we promote our clubs, we cook "tonnjiru", a kind of pork soup, and sell it to other students at the fair.We also go to different places to interview celebrities (名人) who attend our festival as guests. It is a wonderful experience to talk to those stars face to face.Japanese students like to hold parties. We have two kinds of parties. One is the Mochivori party. If you want to attend this party you have to cook something and take it to the party. The organizer buys drinks and snacks.The other kind of party is the Nomikai, which mainly involves alcohol. We drink something called chu - hai, which is a combination of soda and wine. We also drink Japanese sake (日本米酒) and beer. There are parties formany occasions, like welcoming new students, celebrating victories and birthday parties orjust forpromoting friendship.The word "compulsory" in paragraph 3 could be best replaced by ____.【單選題】
A.required
B.forced
C.requested
D.demanded
正確答案:A
答案解析:本題有一定難度,考查的是單詞的基本意義,但干擾項有一定的干擾性。compulsory和requried都有“必須的”的意思,是近義詞,B指“強迫的”,C指“請求的”,D指“需求的,要求的”,最佳答案是A。
4、Status of Teachers in AmericaAt present, in many American cities especially, many teachers in the public schools say they are underpaid. They point to jobs such as secretary ortruck driver, which often pay more to start than that of the teacher. In many other fields, such as law, medicine, computer science, a beginning worker may make more than a teacher who has taught forseveral year.Teaching has never been a profession that attracted people interested in high salaries. It is by history a profession that has provided rewards in addition to money, the satisfaction of sharing knowledge, of influencing others, of guiding young people. But in the past several years, there are more difficulties in teaching, formany, than there are rewards.Unruly students, who would have chosen teaching as their life career in the past, are going into other fields.Another reason forthis change in teacher candidates is the changing status of women in the United States. Until the late 1960s and 1970s, one of the most popular choices forwomen was teaching. But as other professions, such as law and medicine opened up to women, women stopped pouring into teacher training programs. Thus, a majorpool of excellent candidates forthe teaching profession dwindled(減少).Bit by bit government officials and others realized that the status of the teacher had suffered. They talked about change. But change in a vast society like the United States is not easy. People\'s attitudes have formed over many years, and sometimes change takes many years.The writer points out the present situation of teaching, that is_____.【單選題】
A.teaching is a profession that can always attract best students to work in.
B.teaching can provide rewards as well as high salaries.
C.teachers work hard and make a small income compared to workers in many other jobs.
D.teachers are no longer underpaid.
正確答案:C
答案解析:A選項的說法和第2段第1句矛盾;B選項和第2段最后一句矛盾;D選項和第1段第1句矛盾,因此C是正確的。
5、Human Space ExplorationWhile scientists are searching the cause of the Columbia disaster, NASA is moving ahead with plans to develop a new craft that would replace shuttles(航天飛機) on space station missions by2012 and respond quickly to space station emergencies.The space agency released the first setof mission needs and requirements several days ago forme orbital space plane (軌道航天飛機), which would be designed to transport a crew of four to and from the International Space Station.Although it includes few specifics, the plan states the orbiter(軌道航天飛機) will be safer cheaper and require less preparation time than the shuttle. It would be able to transport four crew members by 2012 though it would be available forrescue missions by 2010. NASA says the craft should be able to transport injured orill space station crew members to "definitive(決定性的) medical care" within 24 hours.The release of the requirements showed NASA remains focused on the long-term priorities of space exploration, even as questions exist concerning the loss of Columbia and its seven member crew on February l, 2003.Expels at Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Alabama, have been working foryears on a successorto the shuttle. The project, known as the Space Launch Initiative (倡議), was divided last year into two parts----one focusing on a future launch vehicle, the other on a space station orbiter. The orbiter is expected to be ready sooner.The program\'s managers say NASA officials have told them not to alterSpace Launch Initiative in light of the Columbia disaster.U. S. President George W. Bush asked Congress forabout US$1 billion forSpace Launch Initiative in 2004, funds that would be almost equally split between the Orbital Space Plane and Next Generation Launch Technology.The design of the orbiter indicates ____ .【單選題】
A.NASA\'s determination to continue space exploration
B.NASA\'s disadvantage in space technology
C.the great pressure from Congress on NASA
D.a heavy defeat forNASA
正確答案:A
