阅读材料，回答题：

American Dreams

There is a common response to America among foreign writers:the US is a land of extremes where the best of things are just as easily found as the worst. This is a cliche(陈词滥调).

In the land of black and white, people should not be too surprised to find some of the biggest gaps between the rich and the poor in the world. But the American Dream offers a way out to everyone.______ .(46) No class system or government stands in the way.

Sadly, this old argument is no longer true. Over the past few decades there has been a fundamental shift in the structure of the American economy.

The gap between the rich and the poor has widened and widened.________ (47)

Over the past 25 years the median US family income has gone up 18 per cent. For the top 1 percent, however, it has gone up 200 per cent. Twenty-five years ago the top fifth of Americans had an average income 6.7 times that of the bottom fifth. ________ (48)

Inequalities have grown worse in different regions. In California, incomes for lower class families have fallen by 4 per cent since 1969. ________ (49) This has led to an economy hugely in favor of a small group of very rich Americans. The wealthiest 1 per cent of households now control a third of the national wealth. There are now 37 million Americans living in poverty. At 12.7 percent of the population, it is the highest percentage in the developed world.

Yet the tax burden on America&39;s rich is falling, not growing. ________ (50) There was an economic theory holding that the rich spending more would benefit everyone as a whole. But clearly that theory has not worked in reality.

A．Nobody is poor in the US.

B．The top 0.01 per cent of households has seen its tax bite fall by a full 25 percentage pointssince 1980.

C．For upper class families they have risen 41 per cent.

D．Now it is 9.8 times.

E．As it does so, the possibility to cross that gap gets smaller and smaller.

F．All one has to do is to work hard and climb the ladder towards the top.

Once it was possible to define male and female roles easily by the division of laB．or. Menworked outside the home and earned the income to support their families, while women cooked themeals and took care of the home and the children. __________ (46) but by the middle of this centu-ry, men&39;s and women&39;s roles were becoming less firmly fixed.

In the 1950s, economicand social success was the goal of the typical American. but in the1960s a new force developed called the counterculture. __________(47)The counterculture presen-ted men and women with new role choices.

阅读材料，回答题。

Internet-based Instruction

By almost any measure, there is a boom in Internet-based instruction. In just a few years, 34 percent of American universities have begun offering some form. of distance learning (DL ) , and among the larger schools, it&39;s closer to 90 percent. If you doubt the popularity of the trend, you probably haven&39;t heard of the University of Phoenix. It grants degrees entirely on the basis of online instruction. It enrolls 90 000 students, a statistic used to support its claim to be the largest private university in the country.

While the kinds of instruction offered in these programs will differ, DL usually signifies a course in which the instructors post syllabi (课程大纲) , reading assignments, and schedules on Websites, and students send in their assignments by e-mail. Generally speaking, face-to-face communication with an instructor is minimized or eliminated altogether.

The attraction for students might at first seem obvious. Primarily, there&39;s the convenience promised by courses on the Net : you can do the work, as they say, in your pajamas (睡衣 ) . But figures indicate that the reduced effort results in a reduced commitment to the course. While drop-out rates for all freshmen at American universities is around 20 percent, the rate for online students is 35 percent. Students themselves seem to understand the weaknesses inherent in the setup. In a survey conducted for eCornell, the DL division of Cornell University, less than a third of the respondents expected the quality of the online course to be as good

as the classroom course.

Clearly, from the schools&39; perspective, there&39;s a lot of money to be saved. Although some of the more ambitious programs require new investments in servers and networks to support collaborative software, most DL courses can run on existing or minimally upgraded (升级) systems. The more students who enroll in a course but don&39;t come to campus, the more the school saves on keeping the lights on in the classrooms, paying doorkeepers, and maintaining parking lots. And, while there&39;s evidence that instructors must work harder to run a DL course for a variety of reasons, they won&39;t be paid any more, and might well be paid less.

What is the most striking feature of the University of Phoenix？

查看材料

A.All its courses are offered online

B.Its online courses are of the best quality

C.It boasts the largest number of students on campus

D.Anyone taking its online courses is sure to get a degree

阅读材料，回答题：

My Life at Renda

1 learned very quickly that being a teaching assistant (TA) at the University of Iowa would be differen from a teacher at Renmin University_______(46) Eyes staring, mouths open, students examining my big nose, hands nerv0us,people whispering while I wrote my name on theblackboard.

At Iowa, when my first classes began, half my students still hadn&39;t arrived. When everyone finally found a seat, ringing cellphones and loud yawns (哈欠) interrupted my opening remarks.

Undergraduates at large US universities--especially freshmen and sophomores--often have several classes a semester handled by TAs. In some. cases, the TA sets the course content. ______ (48) Most have good intentions, but only a few are as effective as flesh-and-blood pro- fessors.

E．On the other hand, being taught by a graduate student is not necessarily bad.

阅读材料，回答题。

The Jobless Rate in U. S.

There are only a couple of ways to explain how the capacity of U.S. workers to claim their accustomed share of the nation&39;s income has so stunningly collapsed. Outsourcing is certainly a big part of the picture.

As Stephen Roach, a famous economist, has noted, private-sector hiring in the current recovery is roughly ？million jobs shy of what would have been the norm in previous recoveries and U.S.corporations, high-tech as well as low-tech, are busily hiring employees from lower-wage nation instead of from our own.

The jobless rate among U.S. software engineers, for instance, has doubled over the past three years.In Bangalore, India, where American companies are on a huge hiring spree for the kind of talent they used to scoop up in Silicon Valley, the starting annual salary for top electrical engineering graduates, says Business Week, is $ 10,000 compared with $ 80,000 here in the States.Tell that to a software writer in Palo Alto and she&39;s not likely to up her boss for a raise.That software writer certainly doesn&39;t belong to a union, either.

Indeed, the current recovery is not only the first to take place in all economy in which global wage rates are a factor, but the first since before the New Deal to take place in an economy in which the rate of private-sector unionization is in single digits just 3.5 percent of the workforce.

The current administration is not responsible for the broad contours of this miserably misshapen recovery, but its every action merely increases the imbalance of power between America&39;s employers and employees.But the Democrats&39;prescriptions for more broadly shared prosperity need some tweaking, too.With the globalization of high-end professions, no Democrat can assert quite so confidently the line that Bill Clinton used so often : What you earn is a result of what you learn.This year&39;s crop of presidential candidates is taking more seriously the importance of labor standards in trade accords, and the right of workers to organize.But they&39;ve got a way to go to make the issue of stagnating incomes into the kind of battle crying it should be in the campaign against Bush.If they&39;re not up to it, I say we outsource them all and bring in some pools from Bangalore.

Which of the following might have contributed to the current miserably misshapen recovery in the U.S.？查看材料

A.The New Deal.

B.The globalization of eco.nomy.

C.The economic policies adopted by the Bush administration.

D.U.S.workers are no longer capable of sharing the increase of nation"s income.
