    The Changing Middle Class

    The United States perceives itself to be a middle一class nation.However,middle class is not a real desig-
    nation,nor does it carry privileges(特权).It is more of a perception,which probably was as true as it ever
    could be right after World War II.The economy was growing;more and more people owned their own homes;
    workers had solid contracts with the companies that employed them;and nearly everyone who wanted a higher
    education could have one.Successful people enjoyed upward social mobility. They might have started out
    poor,but they could become rich.Successful people also found that they had greater geographic mobility.In
    other words,they found themselves moving to and living in a variety of places.
    The middle class colleetively holds several values and principles. One strong value is the need to earn
    enough money to feel that one can determine one's own economic fate.In addition,middle-class morality(道
    德观)embraces principles of individual responsibility,importance of family,obligations to others,and
    believing in something outside oneself.
    But in the 1990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success. A U.S.News&
    World Report survey in 1994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle class families could
    no longer make ends meet. Both spouses now worked,as did some of the children;long commutes became
    routine;the need for child care put strains on the family;and public schools were not as good as they once
    were.Members of the middle class were no longer financing their lifestyles through earnings but were using
    credit to stay afloat. The understanding of just what middle class meant was changing.

    This passage gives information about_________________.
    A:a social and economic group
    B:an individual
    C:a political organization
    D:a government department

    答案:A
    解析:
    文章通篇讲述的是美国中产阶级的情况,这个群体指的是社会和经济群体,因此答莞 为A。
    文章第一段提到了当时美国经济不断增长,人们的生活水平有了提高,因此人们应诊 是幸福并充满希望的。选项C正确。
    由文章第二段第二句“One strong value is the need to earn enough money to feel that on( can determine one' s own economic fate.”可知答案为D。
    collectively的意思是“共同的”,与commonly意思相近。因此答案为D。
    从文章最后一段第二句“A U.S.News&World Report survey in 1994 indicated that 75 percent of Americans believed that middle class families could no longer make ends meet.”可知答 案为C。 make ends meet的意思是“使收支相抵”。

    B

    History books often reveal the compilers’ political views.

    C

    Religious art remained in Europe for centuries the only type of art because most people regarded the Bible as the Holy Book.

    D

    In the Middle East even today you can hardly find any human and animal figures on palaces or other buildings.


    正确答案: D
    解析:
    艺术表达的是情感和见解,历史记载的是一个国家的政治生活和事实,故A,B不符合题意。文章最后一段第二句讲,在欧洲数百年来,宗教艺术几乎是唯一存在的艺术形式。但是C项缺乏限定词“几乎”,故可排除。D为正确答案,其依据在最后一段倒数第二句。

    问答题
    Globalization  What exactly does globalization mean? Concepts related to globalization include “internationalization”, “multidomestic marketing”, and “multinational or transnational marketing”, suggesting that the basic criterion is transactions across national boundaries. In the marketing and strategic management literature, globalization is conceptualized as a means to gain competitive advantage by locating different stages of production in different geographic regions according to the particular region’s comparative advantage. This conceptualization focuses only on the economic aspects of globalization; social, cultural and political factors are only considered in the context of achieving economic advantage. Thus, being “culturally sensitive” in global markets is being able to sell one’s product with enough ingenuity to avoid possible pitfalls arising from the seller’s ignorance of local customs. International marketing textbooks discuss such cultural pitfalls in great detail; however, the cultural contest of globalization is always framed by the economy.  Broader conceptualization of globalization can be found in other disciplines such as sociology and anthropology. Waters defined globalization as “a social process in which the constraints of geography on social and cultural arrangements recede and in which people become increasingly aware that they are receding.” This conceptualization with its much broader scope, allows for the examination of a number of consequences of globalization, not jut economic but social, cultural and political ones.  While there are a few different conceptualizations of globalization, researchers seem to be in agreement that there are at least three dimensions of globalization: economic, political and cultural. The economic aspects of globalization stem from the spread of the capitalist world economy and the resulting expansion of goods and services. The need for cheap raw materials, cheap labor and new markets saw the expansion of the capitalist world economy from one that was primarily Eurocentric to one that encompassed the entire world. This process was achieved by various means and often involved overcoming political resistances in the new markets. The political aspects of globalization involved establishing control over markets and raw materials through either the use of direct military power or the establishment of international institutions that control such markets. The rise of the nation-state is an example of the political aspect of globalization, although it is argued that advances in telecommunications and information systems and the resulting constructions of institutions that transience territorial boundaries are making the nation-state obsolete.  If the economic and political aspects of globalization involve material and power exchanges, the cultural of globalization involves the expression of symbols that represents facts, meanings, beliefs, preferences, tastes and values. In fact, these symbolic exchanges are increasingly displacing economic and political exchanges in the spread of global mass culture. Traditional barriers of language pose no problems to modem means of cultural production such as satellite television and film. However, the new “global culture”, despite its manifestations through consumption of global products and symbols in different part of the globe, is essentially the culture of dominant groups centered in the West.

    正确答案: 【参考译文】
    全球化 全球化到底意味着什么?与全球化有关的概念包括“国际化”、“国内多国市场”以及“多国或跨国市场”,意味着全球化的基本标准是跨国际的交易。在市场和策略管理文化中,全球化被定义为根据某个特定地区的具有竞争力的优势,确定不同地区的不同的生产阶段,从而获得竞争优势的一种手段。这一定义只是强调了全球化的经济性的一面;社会、文化以及政治因素只在获得经济优势的背景下才加与考虑。因此,在全球化经济中的“文化敏感”就是能够把该国的产品以一种独具匠心的方式销售出去,同时避免因不了解当地的风俗习惯而可能遭遇的风险。有关国际市场的教科书对这类文化风险进行了详细的阐述,但是全球化的文化竞争总是受到经济的限制。
    全球化的更广泛的定义可以在社会学以及人类学等其他学科中找到。沃特斯把全球化定义为“一种社会的进程,在此期间,社会和文化在地域方面的限制减少了,同时人们也越来越意识到这种限制的减少。”这种更为广泛的定义可以使我们考察全球化的若干后果,不仅仅是经济方面的,也包括社会、文化和政治方面。
    尽管还有一些不同的全球化的观念,研究者似乎一致认为全球化至少有三个层面:经济的、政治的和文化的。全球化的经济层面源自资本主义世界经济的扩张以及产品和服务的扩展。对廉价原材料、劳动力和新市场的需求,使得资本主义世界从最初以欧洲为中心而扩展到了全世界。这一进程是通过多种方式完成的,并经常牵涉到克服新市场的政治障碍。全球化的政治方面主要是通过直接动用军事力量或者建立能控制新市场的国际机构,从而达到对新市场和原材料的控制。民族国家的兴起便是全球化政治层面的一个例证,尽管有人认为电信、信息系统的发展和跨越领土边界的机构的建立正在使民族国家过时。
    如果全球化的经济和政治层面涉及物质和权力的交换,那么全球化的文化层面则是对那些代表着事实、意义、信仰、喜好、趣味和价值的象征性的表达。事实上,在全球大众文化的传播中,这些象征性意义的交换正日益取代着经济和政治层面的交换。传统的语言的障碍对诸如卫星电视、电影等现代手段的文化产品并没有制造任何麻烦。然而,新的“全球文化”,尽管标榜的是消费全球的产品以及代表不同地区的象征意义,其本质却是以西方为中心的大国文化。

    答案:B

    文章的核心词是middle-class,即“中产阶级”,它不是individual(个人),不是political organization(政治组织),不是government(政府)。它是social and economic group(社会及经济群体),因此选项B是正确的。
    文章第二段最后一句提到“中产阶级的道德观包括个人的责任、家庭的重要性、对他人的使命感和相信个人以外的事物”。因此选项D是正确的,其他三个选项都没有提及。
    文章第一段描述了二战以后美国人民的生活状况。当时经济蓬勃发展,到处都是机遇。因此选项C,即“繁荣并乐观”的表述是正确的。
    短语“in other words”的意思是说“换而言之”。因此只有选项C是正确的。
    单词collectively的含义是“全体地”,因此只有选项A是正确的。
