Fighting for a Brighter Future for Women
When I was asked what it means to be a woman running for president, I always gave the same answer that I was proud to be running as a woman, but I was running because I thought I&39;d be the best president.
But I am a woman and, like millions of women I know there are still barriers and biases (偏见) out there, often unconscious, and I want to build an America that respects and embraces the potential of every last one of us.
I ran as a daughter who benefited from opportunities my mother never dreamed of. I ran as a mother who worried about my daughter&39;s future and a mother who wants to leave all children brighter tomorrows.
To build that future I see, we must make sure that women and men alike understand the struggles of their grandmothers and their mothers, and that women enjoy equal opportunities, equal pay, and equal respect.
Let us resolve and work toward achieving very simple propositions (命题) : There are no acceptable limits, and there are no acceptable prejudices in the 21st century in our country.
You can also be so proud that, from now on, it will be unremarkable for a woman to win primary state victories, unremarkable to have a woman in a close race to be our nominee (被提名者), unremarkable to think that a woman can be the president of the United States. And this is truly remarkable, my friends.
To those who are disappointed that we couldn&39;t go all of the way, especially the young people who put so much into this campaign, it would break my heart if, in failing short of my goal, I in any way discouraged any of you from pursuing yours.
Always aim high, work hard, and care deeply about what you believe in. And, when you stumble (犯错), keep faith. And, when you&39;re knocked down, get fight back up and never listen to anyone who says you can&39;t or shouldn&39;t go on.
As we gather here today in this historic, magnificent building, the 50th woman to leave the Earth is orbiting (绕轨道运行) overhead. If we can blast 50 women into space, we will someday launch a woman into the White House.
Hillary Clinton was elected president of the United States. 查看材料
A.Right
B.Wrong
C.Not mentioned

Defeats are nothing to be afraid of. They are common incidents in the life of every man who achieves success. But defeat is a dead loss unless you do face it, analyze it and learn why you failed. Defeat, in other words, can help to get rid of its own cause. Not only does defeat prepare us for success but nothing can cause within us such a strong wish to succeed. If you left a baby grasp a stick and try to pull it away, he will hold it more and moro tightly until his whole weight is hung up. It is this same reaction that should give you new and greater strength every time you are defeated. If you make full use of the power which defeat gives; you can compete with it far more than you are able to.
How much does the writer know about success?
A.He knows at least several examples of success.
B.He knows every success in life.
C.He knows every success that has been achieved by man.
D.It is not referred to.

Section B
Directions: In this section, you will hear 3 short passages. At the end of each passage, you will hear some questions. Both the passage and the questions will be spoken only once. After you hear a question, you must choose the best answer from the four choices marked A, B, C and D.
听力原文: "Sesame Street" has been called "the longest street in the world". That is because the TV program by that name can be seen in so many parts of the world. The program started in New York in 1969. In the United States, more than six million children watch the pro gram regularly. Parents praise it highly. Many teachers consider it a great help. Tests have shown that children from different backgrounds have benefited from watching "Sesame Street". Those who watch it five times a week learn mom than the occasional viewers. In the United States the program is shown at different hours during the week in order to increase the number of children who can watch it regularly.
In its American form, "Sesame Street" is shown in nearly fifty countries. Three foreign shows based on "Sesame Street" have also appeared: In Spanish, Portuguese, and German.
The program uses songs, stories, jokes and pictures to give children a basic understanding of numbers, letters and human relations.
Why has "Sesame Street" been so much more successful than the other children's show? Many reasons have been suggested: the education al theories of its creators, the skillful use of a variety of TV tricks, the famous stars on "Sesame Street", etc. But the best reason for its success may be that it makes every child watching it feel able to learn. The child finds himself learning, and he wants to learn more.

A.The longest street in the world.
B.A TV program.
C.A country.
D.The United States.

The immediate problem is poverty. Most of Africa is urbanising at a lower level of income than other regions of the world did. That means there's little money around for investment that would make cities liveable and more productive. Without upgrades and new capacity, bridges, roads and power systems are unable to cope with expanding populations. With the exception of South Africa, the only light rail metro system in sub-Saharan Africa is in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. Traffic jam leads to expense and unpredictability, things that keep investors away.
In other parts of the world, increasing agricultural productivity and industrialisation went together. More productive farmers meant there was a surplus that could feed cities; in turn, that created a pool of labour for factories. But African cities are different. They are too often built around consuming natural resources. Government is concentrated in capitals, so is the money. Most urban Africans work for a small minority of the rich, who tend to be involved in either cronyish (有裙带关系的) businesses or politics. Since African agriculture is still broadly unproductive, food is imported, consuming a portion of revenue.
So what can be done? Though African countries are poor, not all African cities are. In Lagos, foreign oil workers can pay as much as 65,000 dollars per year in rent for a modest apartment in a safe part of town. If that income were better taxed, it might provide the revenue for better infrastructure. If city leaders were more accountable to their residents, they might favour projects designed to help them more. Yet even as new roads are built, new people arrive. When a city's population grows by 5% a year, it is difficult to keep up.
76.What do we learn from the passage about cities in sub-Saharan Africa____
A.They have more slums than other cities in the world.
B.They are growing fast without becoming richer.
C.They are as modernised as many cities elsewhere.
D.They attract migrants who want to be better off.
77.What does the author imply about urbanisation in other parts of the world____
A.It benefited from the contribution of immigrants.
B.It started when people's income was relatively high.
C.It benefited from the accelerated rise in productivity.
D.It started with the improvement of peopled livelihood.
78.Why is sub-Saharan Africa unappealing to investors____
A.It lacks adequate transport facilities.
B.The living expenses there are too high.
C.It is on the whole too densely populated.
D.The local governments are corrupted.
79.In what way does the author say African cities are different____
A.They have attracted huge numbers of farm labourers.
B.They still rely heavily on agricultural productivity.
C.They have developed at the expense of nature.
D.They depend far more on foreign investment.
80.What might be a solution to the problems facing African cities____
A.Lowering of apartment rent.
B.Better education for residents.
C.More rational overall planning.
D.A more responsible government.

A psychological research has found that while lies typically take place in a fifth of all 10-minute conversations, the number increases to one in three if the participants have been university or college- educated.
Education gives some people the vocabulary and confidence to deceive. The lies may not be important-so-called white lies--but they are more sophisticated than you might find elsewhere in society.
Other research also implicates the better-educated as more likely to lie. A survey of lies among 500 people showed that more highly trained people could not only make up more lies but also detect them more easily.
Scientists are only starting to study how higher education that emphasizes learning and repeating stories, nurtures(培养) an ability to shape experience and memorize it. There is a connection that may have something to do with the education style. that people receive, but it's still too early to make a conclusion.
Investigation also shows that highly educated government officials who never lied are increasingly rare. The grown-ups who would rather get into difficulties than tell a lie have been replaced by much younger intellectuals who tend to be more ruthless(无情的) and don't care so much about the truth.
"I remember some colleagues boasting about how much money they received for getting a gentleman a passport, and that sort of thing. They looked excited and could not stop themselves, even the graceful ladies." said a retired official. While the better-educated may be more frequent liars, psychologists are also finding that women are starting to overtake men.
It is traditionally viewed that men lie more than women, such as empty boasts about their jobs while women tend to tell untruths only in order to avoid hurting and to protect family members.
This is changing, however. Twenty years ago sociologists at Bath University showed that men would lie up to 10 times as often as women. Five years ago the research result was three times as often. And now the gap has narrowed to a few points: t58% of men and 62% of women said they would lie and cheat in an interview to get a job.
Their research suggests that while men still lie as much as they always have done, women are set to outperform. them in the next decade.
