2.Born into a rich family, he has no idea of () to be a poor manA.what’sB.what it’s likeC.it feelsD.how feel

3.The first year of school in America, known as kindergarten(幼儿园), usually begins between the ages of five and six. Among rich countries such a late start is very strange. President Obama believes it is an economic and social problem; his education secretary goes as far as to say that it is “morally wrong”. This statement has some support,as it is clear from research into vocabulary that youngsters from poor families enter kindergarten well behind those from rich families a disadvantage that usually lasts a lifetime. Children from households on welfare knew 525 words by the age of three, while the children of professionals had mastered 1,116.Pre-school can help close this gap. So in a speech last month, Mr. Obama called for a partnership between the federal government and the state, to expand it to every American child. It later became known that “every” meant those who come from families with incomes of up to 200% above the poverty line-equal to an income of $47,000 for a family of four.Some critics(评论家)say that sending children to school at the age of four does not work. The evidence suggests otherwise. For example, on March 20th new results were announced from a study of 9 to 11 year olds in New Jersey. This report found that disadvantaged children who had attended preschool had better literacy(读写能力), language, math and science skills. And two years of prekindergarten were better than one.Some studies also follow the effects of early learning over lifetimes, such as its effect on crime rates and other factors that may eventually burden society. Critics have singled out a government scheme called Head Start, created in 1965, which provides poor households with a range of services including school-based early education.21. The kindergarten in other rich countries usually begins()than in America.A. earlierB. laterC. slower22. Which is TRUE about the vocabulary size of the two groups of kids?A. Poor preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than rich ones.B. Rich preschool kids have a larger vocabulary than poor ones.C. There is no obvious difference between the two groups of kids.23. Which of the following about the New Jersey study is TRUE?A. There is no evidence to support the New Jersey study.B. Two years of prekindergarten were better than one.C. Sending children to school at the age of four is not going to help.24. The phrase “single out” in the last paragraph means().A. countB. think aboutC. choose25.

    A: confrontation

    C: tension

    The author’s attitude towards “Diasporas” is that _____.
    A

    There is increasing hostility towards immigrants in rich countries.

    B

    Immigrant networks are a rare bright spark in the world economy and rich countries should welcome them.

    C

    The Diasporas should return to their homelands so that poor countries will not suffer as a result of “brain drain”.

    D

    Hard-working immigrants will depress the wages of the locals although they may greatly increase productivity.


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    文章多处提到移民为世界经济发展做出贡献。例如第六段提到在富裕国家的“Migrants”不仅“send cash to their families”；他们还会帮助公司“operate in their home country.”不仅如此，倒数第二段提到了移民为富裕国家也做出的贡献。最后一段也提到“Rich countries”将会从宽松的移民政策中获益。因此B项指出移民是世界经济中难得一见的亮点，富裕国家应该欢迎他们是符合作者对“diasporas”的态度的。A选项是一个事实，不是作者态度。因此不选A。文章最后一段“The prospect of working abroad spurs more people to acquire valuable skills, and not all subsequently emigrate”说明有些人只是到国外学习，并不移民；另外一些人才会回国开公司，因此担心不发达国家会“brain drain”是过分夸张的，故C选项错误。从文章第七段可以看出的确有一些研究表明来自“unskilled immigration”的竞争会压低“unskilled locals”的工资，但是其他研究发现，这种影响“to be small”或者“non-existent”，因此D项错误。

    Why does the writer of Comment 5 try to clarify Benjamin Franklin’s saying?
    A

    Because Franklin’s saying is universally applicable.

    B

    Because contentment means “rich” and discontent means “poor”.

    C

    Because if you do your best, you will be the richest.

    D

    Because misunderstandings might occur of Franklin’s saying.


    正确答案： B
    解析：
    由评论5可知，评论5主要对本杰明·富兰克林的话“满足可使穷人变富，不满足可使富人变穷”进行了解释：这并不意味着不去努力做得最好、变得最富有；它仅仅意味着，一旦你已经尽力了，就要满足，就像如果你不尽力当然不会满足一样。评论员对富兰克林的话解释得很详细，目的是避免别人误解，故D项为正确答案。

    D

    题目问的是：作者在最后一段引用联合国秘书长的话主要是为了证明什么？根据文章倒数第2段“We have to get serious not merely about the technology but also the psychology of bridging that divide.”可知，我们在严肃对待科技的同时，还要有填补这一鸿沟的心理；最后一段引用语意思是说，世界上有一半的人还没打过或接过电话，说明贫富悬殊，这一差距在信息时代可能会拉大。故选C。
