3.A survey has shown that people have stopped believing both the media and politicians. A similar survey carried out 5 years ago showed that 50% of people thought that what politicians said was usually not true, and that 35% of people thought that what they saw on the television or read in newspapers was not true. Now both those figures have increased sharply, to 80% of people not believing politicians and 70% not believing the television or newspapers. Experts think that these figures are not going to come down in the near future.Stories about politicians and journalists taking money from businessmen have caused the public to stop trusting them. Also politicians keep making promises that they do not keep. Mr Smith of York said, ‘When the politicians make new laws, they only help their friends, not people like me’. Mrs Marley of Leeds said, ‘The newspapers and television are not interested in what is true; they are only interested in money for advertising’.It has got worse recently as more people can get news from the Internet and learn if the journalists and politicians are telling the truth or not. What can our politicians and journalists do? The only answer is to be more honest.1.The number of people believing politicians and journalists has __________.A.increasedB.not changedC.decreased2.Experts think this problem ____________.A.will get better soonB.will not get better soonC.will get worse soon3.Stories say businessmen give money to _______.A.politiciansB.politicians and journalistsC.journalists4.Mr Smith thinks politicians make laws __________.A.to help their friendsB.to help himC.to help everybody5.People can now check stories using _________.A.the newspapersB.the televisionC.the Internet

    1.Two former lovers are to get married next month after reuniting on Facebook 27 years after their romance first ended.
    2.Paul Eaton,56,and Dawn Pitman,48,first met when he stayed at her mother's bed and breakfast hotel in 1982.The couple enjoyed an 18-month romance before going their separate ways because Ms. Pitman,then 21,thought she was too young to settle down.
    3.They both met other partners and had children in the following years,but never forgot about each other,then in 2008,water board worker Mr. Eaton joined social networking website Facebook, where he saw some pictures of Ms.Pitman on holiday and got in touch.The mother-of-one,a care worker from Exmouth,Devon,said,"I went to America on holiday and my niece Rachel put all these pictures on Facebook.The irony was that I told her to put them off because I felt it was an invasion of privacy and she said she would get them around to it when she had time.If I hadn't been on Facebook,he would not have contacted me and we would have never got back together."
    4.Ms.Pitman later mentioned,"I did think of him quite a lot over the years and wondered what happened to him. He hasn't changed a bit.He's the same old laid back,easygoing Paul I knew all those years ago."Mr. Eaton,a father-of-two from Bransley,South Yorkshire said:"It was totally a chance thing. I had only been on Facebook for one day.I just typed Dawn's name in and I hoped for the best.It was a bit scary when I contacted her. I thought she might be married and would have a dozen kids."
    5.The couple met up again on New Year's Eve 2008 and were amazed to discover the intervening years had been kind to each other."It was a real shock,"Mrs.Pitman said,"We both saw each other and he was exactly the same as I remember and that's what he said about me.He hadn't changed a bit.I knew then he was the one for me."
    6.Mr. Eaton added:"We just knew instantly as soon as we met up again.We didn't even have to discuss it or propose.When we knew each other all those years ago,I was a white van man and Dawn had a sports car. I still got a white van and Dawn still has a sports car. Some things never change.She always said that we would see each other again.I just didn't think it would be 27 years."The couple are due to get married in Exmouth on March 20.

    第三篇

    The State of Marriage Today

    Is 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 spokesper-
    son for the National Family Association.Some futurists predict that in 100 years,the average American will
    marry at least four times ,and extramarital(婚外的)affairs will be even more common than they are now.
    But what are the reasons for this ,and is the picture really so gloomy(阴暗的)?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 for years partly on economic need.Women used to be economically dependent on their
    husbands一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(悲观的)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 simply live together and don't bother to marry. These
    couples are effectively married,but they do not appear in either the marriage or divorce statistics.In fact,
    more than 50%of first marriages survive.
    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!

    Which of the following is true about the marriage in the United States today?
    A:Divorce leads to the breakup of the family.
    B:More than half of the married couples get divorced.
    C:American people marry more than four times.
    D:More and more people are getting divorced.

    答案:D
    解析:
    由第一段可知如果离婚率持续走高的话,会导致家庭的破裂,A项错;几乎是一半人离 婚了,而不是超过一半,故B项错;是将会结四次婚,而不是现在就结四次婚,故C项错。由段中的“it is going to get worse”可知选D。
    由第二段可知,现在妇女都有报酬好的工作了,经济都已经独立了,经济问题对于她们来说已不是问题了。故选A。
    由第三段中的“marriage is still quite popular”可知,情况还没有那么糟糕,还是有很多人 愿意结婚的。故选A。
    由第四段中的“consider themselves more contented than...”可知选D。 contented意为“满 意的”。
    文中根本没有提到出国的事,故选D。

    答案:D
    解析:
    考情点拨:本题考查情态动词的用法。应试指导:句意:杰克把他的父亲描述为一个意志坚定的人,他的父亲多年前肯定很勇敢=用must have been表示对过去事情的肯定推测。
