三、 阅读理解
21. Internet data shows that younger adults have become the main audience crazy about changing their appearance. Once the world of the female in her fifties, plastic surgery(整形手术) has become the focus of the younger Internet users.
The recent death of Stephanie Kuleba, an 18-year-old high school cheerleader who died as a result of plastic surgery, brought our attention to the fashion of becoming a more “ideal” body among teenagers. In fact, search data confirms this phenomenon. One of the most popular sites visited from the search term “plastic surgery” is the official site of the American Society of Plastic Surgeons (www. plastic surgery. org). Over 25% of the visitors, which is up from 19.6% two years ago, fell within the 18 to 24 years old.
Plastic surgery has become an American obsession (痴迷). Checking other countries, such as the UK and Australia, the 18 to 24-year-old’s being interested in plastic surgery is an obvious US phenomenon. Unlike the other groups who visit sites related to diseases and keeping healthy, younger Internet users rush to sites that deal with personal appearance, such as those focused on body-building, weight loss and skin-care, and obviously plastic surgery.
While television on surgery may be driving the interest of a younger audience, one factor appears to be a key in preventing such teens from changing their bodies: the failing U.S. economy. There has been a decline in all plastic surgery topics over the last year. While older age continue to search for information on procedures such as liposuction(抽脂), it’s younger Internet users who in tough economic times are focusing on improving their outer beauty, though at a discount price.
13. Why does the author mention the death of the 18-year-old cheerleader?
A. To show cheerleaders pay more attention to their appearance.
B. To warn people that plastic surgery is not as safe as it is said to be.
C. To prove the fact that people will pursue beauty at any cost.
D. To draw attention to the issue of young people having plastic surgery.
14. While young people are surfing on the Internet, they are very interested in____________.
A. how to be physically and mentally healthy.
B. how to make themselves look young.
C. how to prevent and cure diseases.
D. how to have more attractive appearance.
15. What may affect young people’s decision on whether to have plastic surgery?
A. The safety of the operation
B. The total expense of the surgery.
C. The need for having the operation.
D. The results of the surgery.
参考答案：
13. D    14. D    15. B
试题分析：本文是一篇说明文。讲述网络数据表明整容人员日益年轻化。文章通过调查数据证实了18到24岁的年轻人成为对整形最感兴趣的人，并且比较于其他国家，只有美国这种现象比较严重，尽管日益衰退的经济阻碍了这些青少年改变他们的外貌，但是他们仍旧痴迷整形。
13. 推理判断题。根据第二段首句The recent death of Stephanie Kuleba, an 18-year-old high school cheerleader who died as a result of plastic surgery, brought our attention to the fashion of becoming a more “ideal” body among teenagers. 可知，最近，18岁的高中啦啦队长Stephanie Kuleba因整形手术而死亡，这引起了我们对于青少年整形这种时尚的注意。因此推断，提到这名18岁的啦啦队长的死亡是为了引起人们对年轻人进行整形手术的关注。故选D。

15. 推理判断题。根据最后一句While older age continue to search for information on procedures such as liposuction(抽脂), it’s younger Internet users who in tough economic times are focusing on improving their outer beauty, though at a discount price.可知，在经济困难时期，年轻的互联网用户专注于改善他们的外在美，尽管是以打折的价格。因此推断手术的全部费用可能会影响年轻人的决定。故选B。

   推理判断试题属于高层次阅读理解题。这种题型包括判断题和推理题。这两类题常常相互依存，推理是为了得出正确的判断，正确的判断又依赖于合乎逻辑的推理。做好该题型要从整体上把握语篇内容，在语篇的表面意义与隐含意义、已知信息与未知信息间架起桥梁，透过字里行间，去体会作者的“弦外之音”。推理判断题常常可以分为如下几类：（1）细节推断。如时间、地点、人物关系等；（2）逻辑推断。根据已知的结果推断导致结果产生的可能原因；（3）目的、意图、态度推断。根据文章的论述，推断作者的写作目的以及作者情感态度；（4）预测想象推断。文章没有明确说明，要求根据语篇对文章可能涉及的内容进行预测判断。例如小题3。

22. In cities with rent control, the city government sets the maximum (最大值) rent that a landlord can charge for an apartment. Supporters of rent control argue that it protects people who are living in apartments. Their rent cannot increase, and therefore, they are not in danger of losing their homes. However, the critics say that after a long time, rent control may have negative effects. Landlords know that they cannot increase their profits. Therefore, they invest in other businesses where they can increase their profits. They do not invest in new buildings which would also be rent-controlled. As a result, new apartments are not built. Many people who need apartments cannot find any. According to the critics, the end result of rent control is a shortage of apartments in the city.
Some theorists argue that the minimum wage law can cause problems in the same way. The federal government sets the minimum that an employer must pay workers. The minimum helps people who generally look for unskilled, low-paying jobs. However, if the minimum is high, employers may hire fewer workers. They will replace workers with machinery. The price, which is the wage that employers must pay, increases. Therefore, other things being equal, the number of workers that employers want decreases. Thus, critics claim, an increase in the minimum wage may cause unemployment. Some poor people may find themselves without jobs instead of with jobs at the minimum wage.
Supporters of the minimum wage say that it helps people keep their dignity (尊严). Because of the law, workers cannot sell their services for less than the minimum. Furthermore, employers cannot force workers to accept jobs at unfair wages.
Economic theory predicts the results of economic decisions such as decisions about farm production, rent control, and the minimum wage. The predictions may be correct only if “other things are equal”. Economists do not agree on some of the predictions. They also do not agree on the value of different decisions. Some economists support a particular decision while others criticize it. Economists do agree, however, that there are no simple answers to economic questions.
56. There is the possibility that setting maximum rent may ________.
A. cause a shortage of apartments
   B. worry those who rent apartments as homes
   C. increase the profits of landlords
   D. encourage landlords to invest in building apartment
57. According to the critics, rent control ________.
   A. will always benefit those who rent apartments
   B. is unnecessary
   C. will bring negative effects in the long run
   D. is necessary under all circumstances
58. The problem of unemployment will arise ________.
   A. if the minimum wage is set too high               B. if the minimum wage is set too low
   C. if the workers are unskilled                          D. if the maximum wage is set
59. The passage tells us ________.
   A. the relationship between supply and demandKs5u
   B. the possible results of government controls
   C. the necessity of government control
   D. the urgency of getting rid of government controls
60. Which of the following statements is NOT true?
   A. The results of economic decisions can not always be predicted.
   B. Minimum wage can not always protect employees.
   C. Economic theory can predict the results of economic decisions if other factors are
  not changing.
  D. Economic decisions should not be based on economic theory.
