1.Although machines have been around for a long time and people have adapted easily to living with most of them, they haven’t yet learned how to live in harmony with the newest of these: the personal computer. This is so because the widespread use of the personal computer is a relatively new phenomenon. There was the widely publicized case of a family man who became so absorbed in his computer that he spent long hours with it. Of course, if he was spending long hours with his computer, he was spending less time with his family. And if his wife needed to see him, he was unavailable. She became so upset by this state of affairs that she delivered an ultimatum (最后通 牒), declaring that unless he spent fewer hours with the machine and more with her and the family, she was going to divorce him. This issue became so serious that the couple had to go to a doctor to resolve it. The fortunate result was that the husband reduced the time he spent with the computer, and the marriage was saved. Personal computers may cause people to become isolated from one another since work can be done at home alone. In this case, there may be no need for offices, or for that matter, for any other central gathering place. Universities, or even cities, could be abandoned. Moreover, if that which is now recorded on paper is recorded in the computer instead, people will have no reason to use any paper whatsoever: no money, receipts, letters, newspapers, magazines, books, and so on. If this happens, there will be no need to go to the bank, the bookstore, or the library. Will people then be isolated in their separate homes—alone with their computers and their families, apart from fellow workers, readers, or students?66.We can learn from the passage that the personal computer __________.A.has been around for a long timeB.has been accepted by all peopleC.is not welcome to everyoneD.is not widely used yet67.The man’s wife was upset because __________.A.he loved another womanB.he wanted to divorce herC.she didn’t have her own computerD.he was neglecting her and the family68.The man’s wife threatened to divorce him if __________.A.he continued to spend long hours with the computerB.he did not quit his job with the computer companyC.he did not spend time with her parentsD.he did not go to see the doctor with her69.The marriage was saved __________.A.with the help of a doctorB.with the help of a fortune tellerC.after the wife took over the computerD.after the husband sold the computer70. What seems to be worrying the author as far as the computer is concerned?A.People may become isolated from one another.B.Offices may no longer be necessary.C.People will no longer read books or magazines.D.Factory workers will lose their jobs.

    It can be inferred from the last paragraph of the passage that the chairperson who resigned from the panel to develop a coordinated federal program for radiation regulation most likely did so because( )

    A.he or she disagreed with the findings of the Senate committee
    B.regulatory efforts have been balked by disputes,confusion,and bureaucratic delays
    C.he or she supported the position of the National Academy of Sciences Committee and opposed regulation of radiation exposure
    D.he or she was disorganized and inconsistent in chairing the panel

    答案:B
    解析:
    推断题。由最后一段可知:对辐射的定期监管杂乱无章、支离破碎,且没有连续性,而且这些监管的特点有互相推诿和官僚主义导致的延误等。故本题选B。参考译文:辐射有三种自然来源:环境中的放射性物质,如土壤、岩石或建筑材料,宇宙射线,以及人体内的物质,如骨骼中的放射性钾以及组织中的放射性碳。这些来源使美国人每年暴露在大约100毫雷姆的辐射下。人造辐射的最大单一来源是医用X射线,虽然大多数科学家认为,医用X射线造成的危害远没有武器试验产生的放射尘的危害大,因为锶90和碳14会融合到体内,而这种辐射会伴随人的一生。然而,这种看法绝不是没有争议的。近20年来人们进行了大量的测试,关于低水平辐射影响的争议也从未间断,这开始于1958年联合国科学委员会原子辐射影响研究小组发布的一项报道,该小组在报道中称“即使是最小量的辐射也可能造成有害基因或躯体效应”。英国的一项调查证实,曾用X射线治疗脊椎关节炎的病人感染癌症的概率异常得高。另一项研究显示,如果母亲接受了产前骨盆X射线辐射,孩子患癌症的概率会非常高。这些研究表明,人类有必要重新审视这一假设:即接触低线性能量转移后,罹患癌症的风险也很小。近日,为生产专用于核武器的钚的西海岸工厂的已故员工们做的一次死亡证明表明,这些人死于胰腺癌、骨髓癌和淋巴系统癌的概率远高于正常人群。虽然美国国家科学学术委员会将这种差异归因于化学因素或其他环境因素而不是辐射,但是其他科学家依然认为,任何辐射接触,无论多小,都会增加患癌症的风险。一些科学家认为,一雷姆的剂量如果持续多代的话,婴儿出生时患有严重基因缺陷的风险会增加1个百分点,也有可能导致每百万个新生儿中就有1 000个基因紊乱。同时,定期监管杂乱无章、支离破碎,且没有连续性,而且这些监管具有互相推诿和官僚主义导致的延误等特点。一份参议院的报告总结称,管辖权的争议和混乱使得相关部门和机构共同监管、协调参与变得不太可能。一家联邦机构在努力获得足够的资金和人力以加强执行现有辐射法律方面一直未成功,而专门为发展协调一致的联邦项目而建立的专家组主席也辞职了。

    Lifetime Employment in Japanese Companies
    In most large Japanese companies,there is a policy of lifetime employment.What this means is that when people leave school or university to join an enterprise,they can expect to remain with that organization until they retire.In effect,the employee gets job security for life,and can only be fired for serious mistakes in work.Even in times of business recession,he or she is free from the fear of being laid off.
    One result of this practice is that the Japanese worker identifies closely with his company and feels strong loyalty to it.By working hard for the company,he believes he is safeguarding his own future.It is not surprising that devotion to one's company is considered a great virtue in Japan.A man is often prepared to put his firm's interests before those of his immediate family.
    The job security guaranteed by this system influences the way employees approach their work.They tend to think in terms of what they can achieve throughout their career.This is because they are not judged on how they are performing during a short period of time.They can afford to take a longer perspective than their western counterparts.
    This marriage between the employee and the company-the consequence of lifetime employment-may explain why Japanese workers seem positively to love the products their company is producing and why they are willing to stay on after work,for little overtime pay,to participate in earnest discussions about the quality control of their products.

    Family's and company's interests are equally important in Japanese company.
    A:Right
    B:Wrong
    C:Not mentioned

    答案:B
    解析:
    由第一段第三句“In effect , the employee gets job security for life , and can only be fired forserious mistakes in work.”可知,员工如果在工作中犯严重错误,就会被辞退,可见日本的终身雇佣制并非意味着员工可以在工作中犯严重错误。
    根据第二段第四句可知,日本员工时刻准备着把公司的利益放在他的直系亲属的利益的前面。由此可知,日本员工把公司利益看得比家庭利益重要。
    根据第二段第二句“By working hard for the company , he believes he is safeguarding hisown future.”可知,日本员工通过努力工作来保证他自己能够有个好未来。
    根据第三段第一、四句可知,终身雇佣制会影响员工的职业选择,与西方国家的员工相比,他们在选择职业方面的目光更长远。
    根据第四段可知,终身雇佣制使日本员工与公司关系亲密,这也使他们比较喜爱自己公司的产品。
    本篇文章只在第四段提到了日本公司的产品,指出日本员工比较喜爱他们公司的产品,并在结尾处讲到,尽管加班费不多,日本员工也常常加班讨论产品质量的控制,可没有提到他们的产品是否物美价廉。
    本篇文章主要介绍了日本的终身雇佣制以及终身雇佣制对员工的影响,而非对终身雇佣制的评价。

  • 第18题:

    资料:“I wouldn’t be here today if not for the generosity of strangers,” said Michael Moritz, while announcing a major donation to Oxford University. A former Time Magazine reporter, Mr. Moritz left journalism to become one of the most successful venture capitalists in Silicon Valley. Through Sequoia Capital, the firm he joined in 1986 and has led for many years, Mr. Moritz was an early investor in Google, Yahoo, PayPal and LinkedIn. His personal fortune is estimated at well over $1 billion. Oxford University announced last Wednesday that he and his wife, the novelist Harriet Heyman, donated £75 million, or $115 million, to fund a new scholarship program aimed at providing financial aid to students from low-income backgrounds. Behind the headlines about the size of the gift was a family story of immigration, education and a sense of obligation that transcended generations.
      “I grew up in Cardiff, went to an ordinary comprehensive school, and was the only pupil in my year to go to Oxbridge,” Mr. Moritz explained. “My father was plucked as a teenager from Nazi Germany and was able to attend a very good school in London on a scholarship.” In an interview afterward, Mr. Moritz said that his father, Alfred, had grown up in Munich, where his father was a judge who lost his post when the Nazis came to power. Mr. Moritz’s mother, Doris, was part of the kindertransport, a rescue effort that took about 9,300 unaccompanied, mostly Jewish children from Germany, Austria, Poland and Czechoslovakia to Britain shortly before the outbreak of World War Ⅱ. “ My father’s cousin, Fritz Ursell, was also rescued from terrible circumstances. When he came to Britain, he also benefited from scholarships, and grew up to become a member of the Royal Society,” said Mr. Moritz.
      “It is all too easy not to remember, ” said Mr. Moritz, who has a history major and the editor of Isis, Oxford’s student literary magazine, as an undergraduate before completing an MBA at the Wharton School of University of Pennsylvania. In May, Mr. Moritz announced that he had been diagnosed with a rare medical condition which is incurable. But he preferred not to name the disease. “I felt I wanted to be my partners and with the public. But I didn’t want every ghoul on the internet following me.”
      Charlotte Anderson, a second-year student studying German at Oxford and the first person in her family to go to a university, said that anxiety about taking on debt had nearly kept her from accepting the offer from the school. “it’s great to think that future students who follow me can do so without the fear that I went through.” She said while attending the news conference. Asked whether the university’s campaign to finance student scholarships through private donations rather than government funding meant that Oxford was giving up efforts to secure more public support, the university’s chancellor, Chris Patten, a former Conservative minister to Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and John Major, joked that he was “ no longer allowed to have any political views.”

    It can be inferred from the passage that the family background of Mr. Moritz ( ).

    A.showed how scholarship changed his family members’ life.
    B.gave him the motive to study hard to be successful.
    C.illustrated that his family emphasized on education very much.
    D.proved that immigration family can also make great achievements.

    答案:A
    解析:
    本题考查的是推理判断。
    【关键词】inferred from the passage; the family background of Mr. Moritz
    【主题句】第二段 Mr. Moritz explained. “My father was plucked as a teenager from Nazi Germany and was able to attend a very good school in London on a Scholarship.”(莫里茨先生解释说。“我父亲十几岁时被纳粹德国选中,在伦敦凭借奖学金上了一所非常好的学校。”) My father’s cousin, Fritz Ursell, was also rescued from terrible circumstances. When he came to Britain, he also benefited from scholarships, and grew up to become a member of the Royal Society,” said Mr. Moritz. “父亲的表亲,Fritz Ursell也从可怕的情况下被救出。当他来到英国的时候,他也受益于奖学金,并且长大后成为英国皇家学会的一员,”莫里茨先生说。)
    【解析】本题问“从文章可以推断出莫里兹先生的家庭背景( )?”。选项A意为“显示了奖学金如何改变了他的家庭成员的生活”;选项B意为“提供他努力学习追求成功的动机”;选项C意为“说明他的家人非常重视教育”;选项D意为“证明移民家庭也可以取得巨大成就”。根据文章第2段的内容(主题句)可知奖学金改变了他的家人命运。根据文章内容,选项B、C、D相对于选项A并不能很直观地得出结论。
