The industrial age may now be coming to an end, and some of the changes in work patterns which it brought may have to be reversed. This seems a daunting thought. But, in fact, it could offer the prospect of a better future for work. Universal employment, as its history shows, has not meant economic freedom.Employment became widespread when the enclosures of the 17th and 18th centuries made many people dependent on paid work by depriving them of the use of the land, and thus of the means to provide a living for themselves. Then the factory system destroyed the cottage industries and removed work from peoples homes. Later, as transport improved, first by rail and then by road, people commuted longer distances to their places of employment until, eventually, many peoples work lost all connection with their home lives and the places in which they lived.Meanwhile, employment put women at a disadvantage. In pre-industrial times, men and women had shared the productive work of the household and village community. Now it became customary for the husband to go out to paid employment, leaving the unpaid work of the home and families to his wife. Tax and benefit regulations still assume this norm today, and restrict more flexible sharing of work roles between the sexes.It was not only women whose work status suffered. As employment became the dominant form of work, young people and old people were excluded-a problem now, as more teenagers become frustrated at school and more retired people want to live active lives.All this may now have to change. The time has certainly come to switch some effort and resources away from the idealist goal of creating jobs for all, to the urgent practical task of helping many people to manage without full-time jobs.16 The established work patterns may be changed with the closing of the industrial age.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned17 Universal employment has brought about economic freedom.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned18 Many people depended on the land for a living before the 17th century.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned19 Improved transport enabled people to travel longer distances to their work places.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned20 Employed women of equal qualifications are paid less than men.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned21 A large number of teenagers will quit school next year.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned22 Now is the time to handle the issue of employment in a practical manner.ARight BWrong CNot mentioned16.

Ed Deiner, an American psychology professor, has spent his whole professional life studying what makes people happy, comparing levels of happiness between cultures and trying to find out exactly why we enjoy ourselves.2Many people would say that this question does not need an answer. But Professor Deiner has one anyway. If youre a cheerful, happy person, your marriage is more likely to last, and youre more likely to make money and be successful at your job. On average, happy people have stronger immune (免疫) systems, and there is some evidence that they live longer.3So who are the worlds happiest people? It depends on how the word is defined. There is individual happiness, the sense of joy we get when we do something we like. But there is also the feeling of satisfaction we get when we know that others respect us and approve of how we behave. According to Professor Deiner, the Western world pursues individual happiness while Asia prefers mutual satisfaction.4In the West, the individualistic (个人主义) culture means that your mood matters much more than it does in the East. People ask themselves, what can I do thats fun or interesting? They become unhappy when they cant do any of these things. If you ask people from Japan or China if they are happy, they tend to look at what has gone wrong in their lives. If not much has gone wrong, then they are satisfied.5People from Spain and other Spanish-speaking countries had the happiest culture, Professor Deiner found. The biggest cultural difference is to do with pride and shame. Hispanic (西班牙语言) cultures report much more pride and much less shame than others.6Income also made a big difference to peoples happiness, but only at the lowest levels. Average income earners in the US were much happier than people in poverty. But millionaires were only a little bit happier than people on average incomes. It seems that money makes us happy when we have enough to feel secure.7But can we be too happy? You get people who are actually happy, but they think happiness is so important that they try to be even happier. This desire to be always happy is a product of individualism, where the emphasis is on you individually, your emotions and feeling good. People can end up feeling unhappy because ordinary happiness is not good enough for them.1Paragraph 2_ .2Paragraph 3_ .3Paragraph 4_ .4Paragraph 5_ .A Happiest CultureB An Unhappy PersonC Definition of HappinessD Cultural Differences in HappinessE Reasons to Be HappyF Individual and Ordinary Happiness5Professor Deiner has spent many years studying_ in happiness.6Professor Deiner believes that a happy person is less prone (易患) to_ .7Once we have got enough to feel safe, money does not make _ difference to our happiness.8According to Professor Deiner, some people feel unhappy because they cannot appreciate_ .Aa questionBordinary happinessCindividualismDcultural differencesEmuchFillnesses23.

B阅读理解(第115题,每题3分,共45分)下面有3篇短文,每篇短文后有5道题,每道题背面均有4个选项。请仔细阅读短文并依照短文回答其背面问题,从4个选项中选取1个最佳答案涂在答题卡相应位置上。第一篇Sleep Necessary for MemoriesBurning the midnight oil before an exam or interview does harm to the performance according to a recent research which found that sleep is necessary for memories to be taken back into the brain. A good nights sleep within 30 hours of trying to remember a new task is a required condition of having good recall in the weeks ahead, scientists have found.The research, published in the December issue of Nature Neuroscience, showed that it was the act of sleep, rather than the simple passage of time, that was critical for long-term memory formation.We think that getting that first nights sleep starts the process of memory consolidation (巩固), said Robert Stickgold, a sleep researcher at Harvard Medical School who conducted the latest study.It seems that memories normally wash out of the brain unless some process nails them down. My suspicion is that sleep is one of those things that does the flailing down, Professor Stickgold said.With about one in five people claiming that they are so chronically short of sleep that it affects their daily activities, the latest work emphasizes the less well-understood side effect- serious memory impairment (损害).Volunteers in an experiment found it easier to remember a memory task if they were allowed to sleep that night. But for those kept awake, no amount of subsequent sleep made up for the initial loss.Professor Stickgolds team trained 24 people to identify the direction of three diagonal (斜线形) bars flashed for a sixtieth of a second on a computer screen full of horizontal (水平) stripes.Half of the subjects were kept awake that night, while the others slept. Both groups were allowed to sleep for the second and third nights to make up for any differences in tiredness between the volunteers.Those who slept the first night were significantly and consistently better at remembering the task while the second group showed no improvement despite enjoying two nights of catch-up sleep.1The research published in Nature Neuroscience showed that what was essential to the formation of long-term memory was_.Aintelligence.Btime.Cfood.Dsleep.2Which of the following statements about the research is NOT true?AIt was done within 30 hours.BIt was headed by Professor Stickgold.CIt focused on long-term memory formation.DThere were altogether 24 subjects in the experiment.3Stickgolds research focused on the side effect produced by_.Amemory impairment.Black of sleep.Clow work efficiency.Dmemory recall.4In Stickgolds experiment, those who were kept awake on the first night_.Acould very well remember the direction of the diagonal bars.Bdidnt do any better after two nights sleep.Cwere as tired as those who were not.Dcould recall the direction of more bars than those who were not.5Those who slept the first night_.Acouldnt remember the task.Bcould not sleep the second and third nights.Cperformed slightly better than those who did notDdid much better than those who did not.第二篇The Cherokee NationLong before the white man came to America, the land belonged to the American Indian nations. The nation of the Cherokees lived in what is now the southeastern part of the United States.After the white man came, the Cherokees copied many of their ways. One Cherokee named Sequoyah saw how important reading and writing were to the white man. He decided to invent a way to write down the spoken Cherokee language. He began by making word pictures For each word he drew a picture. But that proved impossible - there were just too many words. Then he took the 85 sounds that made up the language. Using his own imagination and an English spelling book, Sequoyah invented a sign for each sound. His alphabet proved amazingly easy to learn. Before long, many Cherokees knew how to read and write in their own language. By 1828, they were even printing their own newspaper.In 1830, the U.S. Congress passed a law. It allowed the government to remove Indians from their lands. The Cherokees refused to go. They had lived on their lands for centuries. It belonged to them. Why should they go to a strange land far beyond the Mississippi River?The army was sent to drive the Cherokees out. Soldiers surrounded their villages and marched them at gunpoint (在枪口威胁下) into the western territory. The sick, the old and the small children went in carts, along with their belongings, The rest of the people marched on foot or rode on horseback. It was November, yet many of them still wore their summer clothes. Cold and hungry, the Cherokees were quickly exhausted by the hardships of the journey. Many dropped dead and were buried by the roadside. When the last group arrived in their new home in March 1839, more than 4,000 had died. It was indeed a march of death.6The Cherokees used to live_.Aby the roadside.Bin the southeastern part of the US.Cbeyond the Mississippi River.Din the western territory.7Which of the following statements about Sequoyah is NOT true?AHe was imaginative.BHe was an Indian.CHe was a white man.DHe wrote down the spoken Cherokee language.8A law was passed in 1830 to_.Aallow the Cherokees to stay where they were.Bstop the Cherokees using their own language.Cforce the Cherokees to move westward.Dforbid the Cherokees to print their own newspaper.9The Cherokees went to their new lands_.Ain carts.Bon horseback.Con foot.Dall of the above.10 The word exhausted in the last paragraph could be best replaced by_.Aworn out.Bended up.Crun out.Dfinished up.第三篇KnittingMy mother knew how to knit (纺织), but she never taught me. She assumed, as did many women of her generation, that knitting was no longer a skill worth passing down from mother to daughter. A combination of feminism (女权主义) and consumerism (消费主义) made many women feel that such homely accomplishments were now out of date. My Grandmother still knitted, though, and every Christmas she made a pair of socks for my brother and me, of red wool (毛线). They were the ones we wore under our ice skates (冰鞋), when it was really important to have warm feet.Knitting is a nervous habit that happens to be productive. It helped me quit smoking by giving my hands something else to do. It is wonderful for depression because no matter what else happens, you are creating something beautiful. Time spent in front of the television or just sitting is no longer time
