    Us Blacks Hard-hit by Cancer
    Death rates for cancer are falling for all Americans,but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites,the American Cancer Society said Monday. In a special report on cancer and blacks,the organization said blacks are usually diagnosed with cancer later than whites,and they are more likely to die of the disease.
    This could be because of unequal access to medical care,because blacks are more likely to have other diseases like diabetes as well,and perhaps because of differences in the biology of the cancer itself,the report added. "In general,African Americans have less likelihood of surviving five years after diagnosis than whites for all cancer sites and all stages of diagnosis,"the report said.
    "In describing cancer statistics for Mrican Americans,this report recognizes that socioeconomic disparities and unequal access to medical care may underlie many of the differences associated with race." The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier,when cancer is more treatable,and it said more research was needed to see if biological differences play a role.
    "The new statistics emphasize the continuing importance of eliminating these social disparities through public policy and education efforts,"the organization said in a statement. But it also noted a drop in cancer death rates.
    "Cancer death rates in both sexes for all sites combined have declined substantially among African Amnericans since 1992,as have incidence rates,"said the report. "Increased efforts to improve economic conditions in combination with education about the relationship of lifestyle choices to cancer could further reduce the burden of cancer among African Americans."
    About 36 million Americans describe themselves as black,representing about 12 percent of the population.

    Since 1992,cancer death rates among black Americans______..
    A:have been going up and down
    B:have remained stable
    C:have increased
    D:have fallen

    答案:D
    解析:
    由文章第一段中“…but black Americans are still more likely to die of cancer than whites…”可知,美国黑人的癌症死亡率高于美国白人。故选B。
    A、B、C三项在文章第三段中都被提及,用以说明美国黑人比白人有着更高的癌症死亡率的原因,而D项(早期诊断)是有助于降低癌症死亡率的。故选D。
    由文章第六段中“The Cancer Society said blacks should be encouraged to get check-ups earlier , when cancer is more treatable…”可知,黑人被鼓励更早去做检查,因为癌症越早发现越有利于治疗。故选A。
    文章第七段中提到,公共政策和教育有助于消除不平等的社会差异。故选C。
    由文章倒数第三段的内容可知,自1992年以来,美国黑人的癌症死亡率下降了。故选D。

  • 第9题:

    问答题
    College seniors are faced with the job market that is intensely competitive. Many graduates complain that the market poses too high a requirement on them. On the other hand, many employees have also voiced many complaints about new recruits. But the fact is that many graduates cannot succeed in job interviews, and some lose their jobs due to poor performance on their positions. As it is hard to change the overall social environment, graduates need to adjust themselves. What should seniors do to get prepared to prevent similar problems in their future jobs? Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic:On Getting Prepared for Our Future Jobs  In the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.  Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.

    正确答案:
    On Getting Prepared for Our Future Jobs College graduates get more freedom in choosing their jobs. But facts show that a free job market is really a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it brings graduates wider selection of jobs, on the other hand, it imposes a higher requirement on these inexperienced job seekers. Many have failed in interviews; some are performing rather badly on their positions, or get fired. To avoid these problems, I think we college students must make at least three efforts to get prepared for the job market.
    First, we must learn to apply knowledge to practical use. Our future jobs will require much from our knowledge, but the actual way by which the knowledge is used may be widely different from class discussion, so only when we can properly apply classroom knowledge to practical use can the knowledge become really useful. To do this, we should develop the habit of analyzing actual problems with our course knowledge. Many courses include a component called case study, and this is a valuable opportunity to apply knowledge to practical use. Meanwhile, we can also learn to apply our knowledge to our discussion or reflection of various issues of interest.
    Besides, we should also learn to cooperate with others. Though the society is becoming increasingly competitive, success in future jobs should really come from competition with opponents and cooperation with colleagues. This is why the concept of teamwork is becoming so popular now. To get prepared for this, we should learn to get along with our classmates at school, to understand others, and to make necessary compromise. These experiences may prove very helpful when we have to get ourselves accepted by a new working group.
    The last preparation is for possible failure. We all crave for success, but most success comes after successive failure. As a result, we should know that on the way to success, there must be many failures waiting for us, and only when we can overcome these failures can we reach the success. A recent survey conducted among students from 10 universities indicates that only 20 per cent of them axe aware of the potential threat of failure. Some universities are offering courses on failure or depression management to cultivate a positive attitude to problems in one's life. I think they axe really necessary.
    So to sum up, college students must get prepared long before graduation to succeed in their future jobs. We should acquire, as early as possible, the habit of putting knowledge to practical use, and learn to cooperate with others and manage failures properly. Although the requirement from the job market seems unfair, the only way to deal with it is to get prepared instead of making useless complaints.

    Task II (20 marks)  Directions:Many nations’ serious school problems nowadays result from the students’ attitude. What causes these problems? What’s your opinion to deal with these problems? State your opinion in no less than about 160 words, and write it on the Answer Sheet.

    正确答案:
    Nowadays in many nations there are serious school problems—absenteeism, disrespect for teachers, drug abuse, and tardiness. Serious school problems are positively associated with high-risk behaviors of teens: smoking, drinking alcohol, smoking marijuana, and so.
    There might be many causes for these various school problems in different cases, but one reason is in common—the student’s attitude. Every single person is responsible for his or her own actions, so do the students. And if one’s attitude is upright, there would be no reason for him or her to misbehave. On the contrary, if a student is experiencing serious school problems, parents and teachers better take a close look into his or her attitude. There must be something wrong with it.
    Thus, in order to prevent serious school problems, it is necessary to cultivate a positive attitude in the students. Positive attitude will bring out the best in them and will become the key to their success at school.

    The Worker 's Role in Management
    Traditionally,it has been the workers'role to work and management's role to manage.Managers have planned and directed the firm's operations with little thought of consulting the labor force.Managers have rarely felt compelled(被迫的)to obtain the workers ' opinions or to explain their decisions to their employees.At most,companies have provided"suggestion boxes"in which workers could place ideas for improving procedures.In recent years,however,many management specialists have been arguing that workers are more than sellers of labor-they have a vital stake in the company and may be able to make significant contributions to its management.Furthermore,major company decisions profoundly affect workers and their dependents.This is
    particularly true of plant closings,which may put thousands on the unemployment lines.Should workers, then,play a stronger role in management?
    Workers should have a role in management.At the very least,the labor force should be informed of major policy decisions(A common complaint among rank-and-file workers is the lack of information about company policies and actions).Between 1980 and 1985 about five million workers were the victims of plant closings and permanent layoffs(失业),often with no warning.At least 90 days'notice ought to be given in such instances so that workers have time to adjust.Management should consult workers before closing a plant,because the workers might be able to suggest ways of improving productivity and reducing costs and might be willing to make concessions that will help keep the plant operating.
    It should become a general practice to include workers in some managerial decision making.There ought to be representatives of the workers on the firm's board of directors or other major policymaking groups.If rank-and-file workers are given a voice in the planning and management of the work flow,they will help to make improvements,their morale will rise,and their productivity will increase.As a further incentive,they must be given a share in the company's profits.This can be done through employee stock-ownership plans,bonuses,or rewards for efficiency and productivity.Finally,when a plant can no longer operate at a profit,the workers should be given the opportunity to purchase the plant and run it themselves.

    In recent years,many management specialists have been arguing that workers______.
    A:are no longer sellers of the products
    B:are less affected by company decisions than before
    C:are able to make final decisions for the company
    D:should have a say in management of the company

    答案:D
    解析:
    由文章第一段第三句“Managershaverarelyfeltcompelled…”可知,管理者很少去关注员工的想法,故选A。
    由文章第一段第五句及其后内容可知,很多管理学专家称工人并不仅仅是劳动力出卖者,他们和公司的利益休戚相关,或许可以为公司的管理做出巨大贡献,所以工人在公司的管理中应该享有发言权。故本题选D。
    根据该词所在句子的内容可知,对公司的决策和行动缺乏知悉度这种情况在基层工人中会出现,故选B。
    由文章第二段第三句可知,在1980到1985年间,大约有500万工人在未被提前告知的情况下成为了工厂停工倒闭的受害者,故选C。
    由文章最后一段第三句的内容可知,如果普通工人能在公司计划以及流程运营中具有发言权,就会使他们进行改进,增长士气,提高生产率,故选A。第三篇本文主要介绍了肥胖症这一世界性的问题。并论述了肥胖对身体产生的危害,以及可以对肥胖采取的预防机制。

    Scientific and technological advances have improved our daily lives. However, in many fields scientists cannot solve the problems they have created themselves. Do you agree or disagree with this opinion? Give your reasons. Write a composition of about 400 words on this topic.

    正确答案:
    Scientific and technological advances have, admittedly, improved people's daily lives and dramatically changed the way people live. People nowadays actually owe a great debt to the inventors who have pushed forward the development of science and technology. However, I am a strong believer in the claim that scientists in many fields cannot solve the problems they have created themselves, for the following reasons :
    The creation of a new scientific and technological product is a purely academic matter, but its application may be affected by political, historical and military factors. For example, the original purpose of cloning was simply scientific—to change undesirable genes at the embryo stage, and to alleviate pain and illness of the patients. However, some people with ulterior motives may take advantage of this technique to clone human genes. This is sure to cause serious moral uncertainty and chaos for the human race. The inventors of cloning might have never imagined that the technology is now used for dishonorable purposes, and they can only rely on the government to prohibit human cloning by enforcing strict laws.
    Sometimes it is impossible for researchers and scientists to predict the future application of the product they are working on. Atomic energy is a case in point. Its study and research are conducted with the aim of saving the world's limited energy resources and optimizing the use of current energy sources, such as water. Yet people are saddened by the news that atomic technology is used to manufacture dangerous weapons for the purpose of threatening or even destroying other countries and innocent people. For example, to retaliate Japan's attack on its Pearl Harbour, the United States dropped two atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, causing huge mortality and destruction, which were absolutely never dreamed by the scientists who invented the weapon. And once it was put into military use, the inventors could do nothing to change the fearful result.
    In conclusion, scientists in many fields find themselves helpless when it comes to controlling the application of the technology they have labored so hard to produce and to solve the problems they have created.
    解析:
    针对“科学家无法解决一些科技进步带来的问题”这一观点,范文作者在第一段末表示赞同。第二、三段具体解释了赞同的原因。首先,科技的应用受到政治、历史和军事因素的影响。其次,科学家不能完全预测产品的未来用途。其中恰当地运用了实例支持分论点。结尾段简洁地总结了中心思想。

    Advances in technology and science have solved many problems. However,they have also created new problems,among which pollution has attracted much attention of the public. Write a composition of about 400 words on the following topic,discussion the problems caused by pollution.ON POLLUTIONIn the first part of your writing you should present your thesis statement, and in the second part you should support the thesis statement with appropriate details. In the last part you should bring what you have written to a natural conclusion or a summary.  Marks will be awarded for content, organization, grammar and appropriateness. Failure to follow the above instructions may result in a loss of marks.

    正确答案:
    ON POLLUTION Nowadays we have many conveniences in our society, which have been brought through technology and science. However, these same advancements in technology and science have caused some very dangerous problems. These problems will not go away easily because people do not want to give up the conveniences of a modem lifestyle. The most critical problems that should be dealt with immediately are those of pollution.
    Pollution caused by chemicals is a very serious problem because it causes the loss of the ozone layer. Without our ozone, not only we ourselves but also plant and animal life are exposed to dangerous rays from the sun. Aerosol cans emit chemicals that break down our ozone layer. Refrigeration and air-conditioning systems and ears also have dangerous emissions. A very serious threat to the planet—the warming of the earth's atmosphere—is primarily caused by carbon dioxide emissions. Many scientists think that the warming could be sufficient to melt the polar ice caps, thus raising the sea levels. This would mean that many parts of the world would be submerged below sea level.
    There are other problems caused by pollution. Factories that make our modem conveniences emit poisonous gases onto the air we breathe. The chemicals we use for cleaning and wastes from factories go into our water systems and pollute the water we drink and the fish we eat. They also kill much of the wildlife we depend on for food. Some of the pesticides we have sprayed on our crops have been found to be dangerous. This kind of pollution may stay in the ground for a very long period of time.
    Last but not the least, nuclear pollution will lead directly to nuclear damage. The explosions at Three Mile Island in the United States in 1979 and at Chernobyl in the Soviet Union in 1986 provided lessons to the global nuclear industry. The exposure to very high radiation levels released by nuclear plants within a short period of time may harm the environment many years, and usually will cause fatal injuries to human health.
    In conclusion, the problems created by pollution are growing daily. Because people do not want to change their lifestyles, we must invent a way to neutralize the pollutants we are putting into our environment. People need to be educated so that will stop damaging the planet. Furthermore, government must take action to prevent individuals and companies from harming their environment.

    The first thing I have to say is that security of the dorms should be improved. Strangers can go in and out freely without any inquiries and checks. Thefts occur from time to time because of the negligence of the dorm management. Secondly, the heating system is frequently out of order and has not been repaired in a timely manner. As a result, quite a few of my roommates have caught colds. And I, too, have also caught a very bad cold.
    I sincerely hope that the people in charge of the dorms would take immediate action to solve these problems.
    Yours truly,
