    [B] the life of children in the middle-income countries has become better

    [C] poor people's living conditions don't change although the number reduced

    [D] the financial aid to the world's poorest countries achieves great success


    正确答案：C
    作者引用“220个国家中，低收入国家的数目降到了39个”这一事实是为了表明____。
    [A]中等收入国家的贫困状况得到了极大缓解
    [B]中等收入国家的儿童生活有了改善
    [C]尽管低收入国家的数目降低了，但是贫困人口的生活状况没有改变
    [D]对世界上最贫困国家的经济援助取得了很大的成功
    答案解析：[C]推理判断题。文章第二段作者引用了世界银行的分类数据，通过数字可以看出低收入国家在不断减少，但在下文当中，作者又通过新的数据信息，向读者阐明，尽管这些国家成为了中等收入国家，但是“中等收入国家所占的全球穷人比例增加了2倍”，也就是说贫穷问题并没有在根本上得到解决，而是愈演愈烈，因此可以判断[A]错误，[C]表述正确；在第二段末尾，作者提出“世界上70%的营养不良儿童生长在中等收入国家”，因此[B]错误；[D]也与文章内容不符，排除。

    The United States perceives itself to be a middle-class nation.However,middle class is not a real designation（称号）,nor does it carry privileges. 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 may 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 collectively 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 embraces principles of individual responsibility,importance of family,obligations to others,and believing in something outside oneself.
    But in the l990s those in the middle class found that there was a price for success.A US 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（给······带来压力）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.

    The phrase "In other words"in the first paragraph means that the following statement is_________.
    A:an excepti6n to the previous idea
    B:a denial of the previous idea
    C:a restatement of the previous idea
    D:a contrasting idea

    答案：C
    解析：
    本题问的是：本文的信息是关于什么的？本文通篇讲述美国的中产阶级，这一阶段是一个社会和经济群体，因此选择B。
    本题问的是：一个普遍的中产阶级价值观是什么？本篇第二段最后一句话提到：中产阶级的道德观包括个人的责任感、家庭的重要性、对他人的责任感以及相信自身以外事物的存在。A、B、C三个选项不包括在内，因此正确答案是D。
    本题问的是：在第二次世界大战之后的几年，中产阶级可以被定义为什么？本篇第一段提到了当时美国经济不断增长并且人们生活水平有了提高，因此选择C选项“成功并且乐观”。
    本题问的是：第一段中的In other words这个短语与下列说法一致的是哪个？in other words意为“换句话来说”，因此正确答案是C。
    本题问的是：单词collectively的中文意思是什么？collectively意为“集体地”，故选择A。

    答案：C
    解析：
    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。

    文中提到“But bringing in the ‘dog’ he put you down a little. What he may be saying is that he doesn't think you deserve your luck”，即用dog这个词是把你放低了，他说的可能使你不配这种运气。D项“有时候说话者用的词暗示了话语之后的真正意思”，很好的阐述了这一点，D项正确。
