1.The advantages and disadvantages of a large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited. To feed a large population, poor land must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. Thus, each person produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population. Other economists have argued that a large population gives more chance of development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand.One of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that of ficial attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, the first concern of government will be to set a limit on the birthrate, whatever the final result may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment because it results in a declining market for manufactured goods.When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and building industry grow weaker. Faced with concern such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable or in decline.(1)The main topic of this article is _____________.A、environment protectionB、population growthC、environment and economyD、climate changing(2) The passage says that a small population may lead to _____________.A、higher production, but a lower average incomeB、lower production and lower average incomeC、higher production and a higher average incomeD、lower production, but a higher average income(3) According to the passage, the use of birth control perhaps is good for_____________.A、a developing countryB、a developed countryC、the whole worldD、each nation with a big population(4) In a developed country, people will perhaps be unemployed if the birthrate _____________.A、goes upB、goes downC、remains stableD、is out of control(5) The author is aiming to show that_____________.A、humans will run out of their food supply in the futureB、it is necessary for humans to carry out a worldwide plan for birth controlC、different nations have different views of population growthD、we need to take necessary measures to prevent the overuse of natural resources.

  • 第2题：

    资料：Large industrialized are now in a recession. What are the prospects for economic recovery?
    The three most important industrial economies in the world are, at the moment, facing enormous problems. Germany is struggling with the cost of reunification and is in recession. Japan is also experiencing recession and the United States has a large budget deficit.
    Forecasters and analysts face questions about the prospects of an economic recovery. Here are some of their findings:
    The election of a new president of the United States gave hope to the rest of the world. If the US recovered, the rest of the world would face a more promising future. However, analysts now accept that the US will only recover very slowly.
    Consumer and investor confidence is still lacking. Large deficits and declining short-term interest rates mean there is little scope for economic stimulus.
    The Japanese economy, after years of trade and budget surpluses, is in deep recession and the growth rate has slowed down considerably. German economists have lowered their forecasts for economic growth this year. The lowering of German interest rates may bring some relief to other members of the European Exchange Rate Mechanism （ERM）. However, Germany's importance as Europe's largest export market may decline.
    However, in some parts of the world, there are more positive signs, particularly in some Latin American countries in South-East Asia. Analysts says that, as long as the rate of interest stays above the rate of growth at national income, then the ratio of debt to income will get worse. Falling interest rates help towards overcoming this problem. They believe it may take several years before there is real recovery. However, advances in technology are offering hope for the world economy.

    It could be implied that rising of the interest rate ______.

    A.can help towards overcoming this problem about the ratio of debt to income
    B.may lead Germany's importance as Europe’s largest export market to decline
    C.may bring some relief to other members of the European Exchange Rate Mechanism
    D.None of above

    答案：D
    解析：
    本题考查的是推理判断。
    【关键词】can be implied;the rising of the interest rate
    【主题句】
    第6自然段The lowering of German interest rates may bring some relief to other members of the European Exchange Rate Mechanism （ERM）. However, Germany’s importance as Europe’s largest export market may decline. 德国利率降低会给其他欧洲汇率机制成员国带来一些安慰，然而，德国作为欧洲最大的出口市场，其重要性会有所下降。
    第7自然段Analysts says that, as long as the rate of interest stays above the rate of growth at national income, then the ratio of debt to income will get worse. Falling interest rates help towards overcoming this problem. 分析师说，只要利率保持在国民收入增长率之上，债务收入比就会变糟。利率减少才会帮助克服这一问题。
    【解析】本题意为“根据推断，利率上涨会____?”
    选项A意为“能帮助解决债务收入比问题”；选项B意为“可能导致作为欧洲最大出口市场的德国重要性下降”；选项C意为“可能会给其他欧洲汇率机制成员国带来一些安慰”；选项D意为“以上皆不”，根据主题句，利率下降才能出现选项A、B、C情况，因此选项D符合题意。

    Which statement is true about Malta’s immigrant population?
    A

    It has a large immigrant population.

    B

    Its immigrant population is more than 3,000.

    C

    Its immigrant population totals 7,000.

    D

    Its immigrant population comes to less than 1% of the island’s 400, 000 population.


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    该段录音中指出Malta（马尔地）是一个人口密集的国家，但是移民数量却依旧很小，官方指出他们尚无确切的统计，但是估测移民人口在3000以下，而这一数字是“less than 1% of the island’s 400, 000 population”，因此选项D正确。
    【录音原文】
    Malta may be densely populated (three times more than the Netherlands), but its immigrant population is still tiny. Officials say they have no precise total, but their estimate is below 3, 000—fewer than the commonly touted figure of 7, 000 arrivals since 2002, and less than 1% of the island’s 400, 000 population. Malta’s EU partners could be forgiven for feeling that, as in other respects, the union’s southernmost member is just catching up with them.
